This has been on of the hardest goals to reach. I actually met it a few weeks ago but I needed to be sure **hence the 2 scales** I FEEL AMAZING🥰! 77lbs down.
Nothing can really set you up in preparation for moments like these. You get to a point in life where you've given up on everything and you've reached a point so low that you feel like you can't accomplish anything.
I can recall many times saying to myself "oh well, guess I'll be fat like this forever". There is no motivation or inspiration when your mentality is in a negative space.
There is no motivation or inspiration when your mentality is in a negative space.
Sometimes with everything going on in life, I fail to properly acknowledge my success. I tend to overlook my own successes a lot. When in all actuality every goal should be celebrated. No matter how small.

"The only hope we have
is daily dependence on the living Lord.
It's the only way we can make it.
He's touched with our feelings of infirmity,
our weaknesses, our inability in the dark
and lonely times to say no.
He's touched with that.
And He says,
'I'm ready with all the power you need.
Call on Me and I'll give you what you need.'
So? Call on Him!
Stop this moment and call on Him.
He will hear and heed your cry."

Oliversweeney.com launches as the first Magento Cloud site.
We're thrilled to announce the launch of the first EMEA Magento Enterprise Cloud site for Oliver Sweeney.
The ecommerce site successfully deployed yesterday following the announcement of the project at Magento Live UK.
Oliver Sweeney first in EMEA on Magento Enterprise Cloud
At Magento Live UK, Oliver Sweeney spoke about their reasons for choosing Magento Enterprise Cloud instead of a third party cloud option. "The biggest thing for the Cloud Edition is that everything is in one place, from the AWS system to the latest version of Magento to the management tools, all included out-of-the-box," said Alex Barbier, Digital Marketing Director of Oliver Sweeney. "The way our website runs is just as important as in-store customer service. We needed a platform that we could not only easily scale up if required but we could also customise to our brand. The website is our virtual shop front, and we felt that Magento's offering was best suited all of those needs."
Read more on Magento Enterprise Cloud Edition here.
Redbox Digital ideal partnership
The British menswear brand, founded in 1989, recently looked to re-platform their site and chose Magento as the best ecommerce solution for their needs and turned to Redbox for implementation.
When looking for an agency to partner with, Oliver Sweeney decided to go with Redbox Digital for a number of reasons. "We wanted an agency who's the right size for our business, people who are reactive. It was also very important for us to have a development team based in London" said their Digital Marketing Director, Alex Barbier, "as well as their great credentials, one of the reasons (we chose them) as well, was that Redbox were partners with Magento for Magento 2."
Magento 2 for the long run
When it came down to choosing a Magento platform, Magento 2 Enterprise Edition was the obvious choice for Oliver Sweeney. "In terms of Magento 2, the reason we went with it instead of 1, is that obviously, we want the platform to be up and running for at least 5 years. We had the feeling that if we used Magento 1, we would have had to re-platform down the line so we said ok, the timing is about right" commented Alex Barbier.
As well as the launch of the site on Magento Enterprise Cloud Edition, we are looking to grow the brand's site in line with their long-term omnichannel vision. Oliver Sweeney's website will soon be implementing our Click and Collect module as well as integrating an iPad point-of-sale system in their stores, down the line.

Cover is a collection of containers. Containers that make you curious, curious about what's inside of them. The covers can be separated from the bowls to fill them, or they can be used singly as open containers.
By drawing a line or closing borders, by creating boundaries or setting up fences people believe they can create a certain level of safety. These fences are the reason curiosity turns into fear. Fear of the unknown.

A few km from Caorle, entering the hinterland along the surrounding fields the city, there is a hidden little gem. A tiny village that retains a rural architectural split of 1800. A fraction so small that it is difficult to find. Here time seems to stand still and you can experience the old days.
But go in order …
Leaving Caorle, continue along the Chain Bridge, an old bridge that is still open hand today (it takes four people to lift and allow boats to pass) and you'll find yourself on the road leading to the rural hamlet of Cà Corniani . We advise you to get there by bike or on foot, it is less than 3 km.
When you reach the winery Cà Corniani, your hike through the left along the gravel road and be guided by curiosity. The village is so small that it is impossible to get lost! 😉
Ca 'Corniani is a perfect example of Venetian rural architecture. Originally, this whole area was a vast malarial swamp, which required significant restoration activities. Interventions that were implemented in the second half of the nineteenth century by some landowners: General Insurance, which attracted the families of farmers by offering them not only a job, but also a house inside of a well-structured farming community.
Here once the farmers and the farmers had available all the services, from the medical to the baker, shops, kindergarten, school for the children and the church with its priest. Today, with the peace and tranquility that reigns here it seems impossible to think that just a few decades ago these courtyards were crowded with children running cheerful and a great coming and going of people.
The village of Ca Corniani represents and recreates the typical characteristics of the rural village of that time. It is a horseshoe-shaped structure, with the open side facing west toward the campaign. An elegant country house on three floors marks the southern perimeter of the complex, while parallel to the Livenza river, there is a tight sequence with housing for sharecroppers and settlers, which continues on the northern side porch.
Some of the old buildings have been restored and some are partly inhabited by the descendants of wage earners. There currently live in the village just 60 people!!!
In the hamlet you can also visit the modern winery of the same name which produces fine wines and buffalo mozzarella. If you are lucky to find it open don't hesitate to come in and take a look at big barrel. Or if it's the right time for a quick stop at the restaurant osteria nearby or have a rest along the pier or in the shade of the trees of the river Livenza.
We have a rest now, but let's get back soon with a new article;)

A customer had enough: foldable frames made from wood or metal are dirty and heavy, wood chips or protruding metal can cause injury and the transported goods have to be put into their own protective packaging. Wood and metal were to be replaced by hygienic and safe plastic.
The height of the new pallet frame was to be 800 mm. The specified empty weight was 20 kg. The frame was to carry up to 1,000 kg and stand securely on a wooden Euro pallet without additional fastening. Stacking another pallet on top was to be easily possible. Generous removal flaps did not make the challenge any easier.
We accepted the challenge - and were finally able to present our customer with an industrial container which is only 13 cm high when folded. Our deep-drawn frame weighs only 19.5 kg, has a high load capacity and can be used for hundreds of transport cycles. Our customer's employees were stunned: why did they have to put up with the heavy and dangerous metal frames for years?
Why only replace the metal frame? In combination with the plastic pallet you also ban wear debris from your business as the folding frame does not only fit onto all common wooden pallets with the basic dimensions 1,200 x 800 mm but also onto plastic pallets with the same basic dimensions.

Traveling on the trails through the bush wasn't bad, although snow was really coming down this afternoon.
When I came down off the mountain and hit Pelican Lake for the last mile home, conditions were total white-out. I could see 20 or 30 yards.
From experience boating in fog, I know I can't begin to get where I want to go without any land references. I can pilot a boat for miles and miles in almost total darkness as long as I can see the silhouette of horizon, but without that it's guaranteed the boat will end up somewhere totally unexpected.
I paused for a short time at the edge of the bush, hoping for a short respite from the blindness, but eventually tossed aside my best judgement and set off slowly across the lake ice, watching intently for the headlight of any approaching snowmobiler silly enough to be out there.
Eventually I came to the distant shoreline, and found myself only about 300 yards west of my house.
Remarkable, some might say.
Truth is, I had expected to come to shore about a mile east of home. I was way out of whack. Everything turned out fine, but it was good to reinforce the lesson that I just can't navigate without being able to see.
It was just a good reminder lesson about traveling blind. It wasn't particularly dangerous on this occasion. I had been on the lake a few hours earlier. Ice was good. No slush. No danger spots anywhere near. And, no matter where I ended up spotting land it would be within a mile or so from where I set out and it was all familiar to me, so I'd know right where I was and be able to follow the shoreline home - which is what happened. It's just an amazing experience to realize how far off a person can get without some reference points.
I can sure cook up a storm on the barbeque, though - if I can find my way to it.

Higher education must effect a "major cultural and attitudinal" change if it is to meet the needs of society and the economy, delegates at the Higher Education Funding Council for England's conference were due to hear this week.
Sir Christopher Frayling, rector of the Royal College of Art, was expected to argue in support of revolutionary change in higher education, in a debate at Hefce's annual conference at Hertfordshire University this week.
He told The Times Higher , ahead of the debate, that it was time for the sector to seize the higher ground on issues that many academics were "scared" of, such as skills, vocational education and engagement with employers.
Sir Christopher said: "It was exactly ten years ago when Lord Dearing presented a preview of his report to the Hefce conference, and threw down various gauntlets designed to create a sector that would meet the needs of society and the economy in the 21st century. In almost every case there is still a lot of unfinished business. We need to ask why that is - what are we scared of?"
He said the sector needed to get out of its bunker mentality, epitomised by language used to describe connections with the outside world, such as "outreach".
But Baroness Blackstone, Greenwich University vice-chancellor and former higher education minister, countered that revolution was not needed and could be a backward step in a sector that was performing very well on most fronts.
Lady Blackstone said it should be recognised that UK higher education was a huge success story, and that too many initiatives and changes were unlikely to lead to big improvements.
"Having run things as a minister and a vice-chancellor, I now know that you often get better outcomes if you are not continuously having your eye taken off the ball because you are constantly trying to reorganise in response to radical changes. It is far better to focus on gradual improvements to what you are already doing," she argued.
Meanwhile, Baroness Warwick, head of Universities UK, said this week that universities and their staff were playing a crucial role in tackling problems that affect the whole world, such as conflict, terrorism and global warming.
Speaking ahead of a House of Lords debate in which she was due to argue for further investment in higher education from the Government's spending review, she said: "Our world-class research departments in both the social sciences and the sciences are essential to combating and understanding the threat of global conflict and terrorism.
"With regard to our ageing population, higher education has a key role in equipping the UK workforce to be more productive for longer. Finally, universities are at the forefront of the green agenda"
Lady Warwick said that the staff who worked in higher education institutions were critical to the success and the global standing of the UK. "The productivity and quality of our researchers remains second only to the US - for example, they produce 9 per cent of the world's scientific papers and achieve a 12 per cent citation share with only 4.5 per cent of the world's spend on science," she said.

Children's Church
Children's Church is a ministry for the younger children during the 9:00am Sunday morning Worship Service. There is also a class for 2 years old through PreK. The focus of Children's Church is to teach children to grow more aware of God's love, care, and help in their everyday lives. There are three common characteristics of these young children: 1) they have unique needs, 2) their understanding of the world is limited, and 3) their most effective method of learning is through play! Children's Church provides each child a chance to actively explore Bible truths and equips them to practice what they have learned in class to their everyday lives so that Bible truths have real meaning.
During each class session, children may participate in several different active learning experiences that will help focus the children's minds to relate the Bible lesson to their lives.
- The Active Game Center provides noncompetitive, active games and is a perfect place for children to let off stream, work out the wiggles and be open to conversation that connects the Bible lesson to children's lives.
- The Art Center is a place where young children can become absorbed in a creative activity that helps focus their minds on the day's lesson and how it relates to their lives.
- The Block Center is an important learning tool because it provides firsthand experience in practical bible concepts as sharing, helping, taking turns and exercising self-control.
- The Science Center involves the wonder and excitement of hands-on inspection of God's world which presents a variety of opportunities to help young children learn about God and themselves.
- The Bible Story Center presents Bible stories that correlate with the Sunday School curriculum. By focusing on one Bible story and verse at a time, children are provided with the repetition necessary for early childhood learners.
- The goal of the Worship Center is to help children participate in meaningful worship at their level of experience by singing, praying and speaking God's Word.
When we have presented Jesus in both actions and words, a foundation is laid for a child to receive Christ as Savior. Every lesson may create an opportunity to talk with a young child who wants to know more about Jesus. The goal of Children's Church is to lay a good foundation for a lifetime of solid spiritual growth!

On Aug. 13th a group of tribal elders gathered for ceremony on the land slated for the world's largest solar plant near Blythe, California. Within a week, Solar Trust announced the abandoning of its plans to use solar thermal technology and will switch to the less expensive and less complex photovoltaic.
For the full story, read the Desert Sun's article by K. Haufman at:
The following letter from Alfredo Acosta Figueroa, of La Cuna de Aztlan, was released today in gratitude for the support of their efforts.
Dear Defenders of Mother Earth & Sacred Sites,
We would like to thank each and every one of you for all your wonderful cooperation and great sacrifice that you did in participating with us in the Spiritual Gathering that took place on August 13, 2011 in La Cuna de Aztlan.
On the day of the event Aztec Danzantes came as far from Ventura, Los Angeles, San Diego, Escondido, Aguanga, Needles, and Palm Desert, California as well as Yuma Arizona and Tecate Baja California, Mexico. Also we would like to thank the two video producers that filmed our gathering and which videos will be seen all over the world.
During the gathering at the giant twin geoglyphs of Kokopilli & Cicimitl the Peace & Dignity Journey staffs were exchanged and bless. These geoglyphs represent the ending of a Sun and the beginning of the New Knowledge. Cicimitl is the ending which takes the spirits to their final resting place at Topock Maze (Mictlan) which its location is Magnetic North (beginning from the Mule Mountains "Calli" in the south). Kokopilli is leaving because he is hurt "koko" and he is leaving to start a new beginning.
As we all know, August 13 is one of the hottest days of the year however, on this day we had an overcast which made the event pleasant for all. We had the Creators Blessing, "He who has no name, yet has all the names," because one of the Creators name is "Tloque-Nahuaque," "Among all we do all for the benefit of all, like the fingers on the hand, different sizes and shapes, separate and close yet joined all together in the palm of the hand." This is why the Creator put us on this earth, to be guardians and not destroyers.
In this letter we would also like to give historical reference to August 13, 1992 which was the first Peace & Dignity Journey here in Blythe, Ca. When the Peace and Dignity Journey runners came down following the Pacific Coast route, they entered California. They went down the coast through San Francisco, Los Angeles, and San Diego. A tributary route would pass through San Bernardino, California following Interstate-10, passing through Blythe, California and meeting with the main route again in Phoenix, Arizona.
When La Escuela de la Raza Unida Support Committee first heard that one of the Peace and Dignity stops was going to take place here in Blythe on August 13 we became very excited. As we know, this day is the most Sacred day of the year. The 13th of August, is the thirteenth day of the thirteenth month in the eighteenth month, on the 20-day solar calendar as shown on the Azteca Sun Stone Calendar. The 13th month is called "Teotleco" meaning "the Coming of the Energies, the Great Spirit."
On August 12, the runners arrived in Desert Center, California where they were welcomed by members of the five Colorado River Reservations. Donna and Larry Charpied of the "Stop the Eagle Mountain Dump Organization," were the hosts of the event.
The runners left the following morning on August 13, at sunrise after receiving blessings from the Elders. We were very concerned because August 13 is one of the hottest days of the year, and we did not know if the runners would be able to run the 48-mile journey to Blythe in 110 degree heat. As a precaution, we had the Blythe Ambulance following them throughout the route.
However, around 8:00 am, a heavy overcast appeared and lingered throughout the day making it pleasant for the runners to continue onto Blythe. In fact some of the runners ran all the way without relaying with others. We knew then that the creator, Ometéotl, was looking over us and had given us a special blessing. As we now know, Desert Center is one of the most Sacred Sites as recorded in the Azteca Sun Stone Calendar.
Once the runners arrived in Blythe, there was a large crowd of people awaiting their arrival at Todd Park. Representatives from all the reservations and City Mayor Tom Farrage, were there to welcome and honor them with a City of Blythe Resolution, which proclaimed August 13, 1992 as "Peace and Dignity Journey Day," in Blythe, California.
The Run coincided without deliberate planning with this historical day, August 13th which was the date Cuauhtémoc was captured in 1521, which is the most sacred day of the year for the indigenous people.
The runner's route that passed through Blythe reenacted the hundreds of indigenous migrations that had come and gone, for thousands of years, to and from the Colorado River, as well as the last Mexica Migration that took place in 1160 AD (as shown in the Boturini Codex). As the Mexica before them, they left the Colorado River, and took their knowledge of the Mexica Creation Story all the way to Mexico/ Tenochtitlan.
At the end of the Peace & Dignity Journey at Teotihucan on October 12, 1992, all the staffs and other scared objects were put together in bundles to later take them to Ixcateopan, Guerrero were Cuauhtémoc's remains are located. Afterwards, they would be taken to the different indigenous gatherings as a symbol of remembrance of how our Knowledge Keepers brought with them their Bundles of Knowledge to the Valley of Anahuac from La Cuna de Aztlan on the Colorado River.
In order to allude to our Mexica Cosmic Traditional culture we explained in our flyer, the significance of the "Perseid-Meteor Shower," which is the cosmic duality of August 13. The meteor shower emanates from a point near the border of the Perseus & Cassiopeia constellations. The meteor showers represent the coming of the energies from the 4-directions and centers.
In Mexico City the Nahua Families build pyramids called "Teotihuacan" meaning "The Coming of the Gods." They build the pyramid of the Moon, Sun, Quetzalcoatl and the Earth Temple in honor of August 13, "Perseid-Meteor Shower." This is why Cuauhtémoc the last Tlatoani (Spokesperson) of the Confederation of Anahuac fought despite all odds until August 13, 1521 against the Spanish invaders because it was the most important day of the year. On this day Cuauhtémoc gave his last decree that stated "Our Sun has gone from our Vision and has left us in total darkness, but we know that it will return and shine upon us again."
On another note, during the week of August 19, 2011 two articles came out in the Riverside Enterprise and The Desert Sun Newspapers. The headings in these articles read "Solar developer will forgo $2 billion loan guarantee" and "Massive Solar Projects on hold." In addition, the Pechanga Tribe from Temecula, California is sponsoring a State Bill by Assemblywoman Bonnie Lowenthal (Democratic Party). According to the article, "The amended measure prohibits quarries within 2,000 yards of an Indian reservation, 5,000 yards of a Native American scared site."
Likewise, Eldred Enas, Chairman of the Colorado River Indian Tribes will be having a special meeting with the representatives of La Cuna de Aztlan Sacred Sites Protection Circle to discuss the possibility of joining the lawsuit against the Solar Power Projects.
As we explained before, the time was measured by the Pleiades rising to its zenith every 52-years. The last time this occurred was November 14, 2003, which terminated the 5th Sun and the Era of Piscis and we are now in the 9-year transition from 2003-2012 to the beginning of the Era of Aquarius as explained in the Aztec-Mayan Sun Stone Calendar.
As you are able to see, all our struggles are coming to together. For this reason, I would highly recommend the book "Confessions of an Economic Hit Man," by John Perkins. In this book Perkins talks about how government officials work for the Capitalist Wall Street Companies and not for the people which is similar to what Obama, Ken Salazar, Jerry Brown and Assemblyman Manuel Perez are currently doing in destroying our scared sites for the profit of Solar Companies. So please help us contact, President Obama (202) 456-1111to stop further destruction of our sacred sites!
Thank you once again for all your support, we all know this event was a huge success and everyone who attended is motivated to continue the struggle in preserving our scared sites for future generations.
Desde la Cuna me Despido, que el Padre Sol y la Madre Tierra siempre los ampare.

Overview: Deep in the jungles of South America flows a legendary river along which many intrepid adventurers have journeyed in search of lost treasures. Travel down the river and deep into the jungle in a quest to find lost temples and the gold that awaits the brave and the lucky. Raiding these ancient temples is the key to making your fortune and earning fame and glory on the Treasure Temple Aztec slot leader board! Beware though - many adventurers have attempted to navigate these jungles, only to never be seen again!
Treasure Temple Aztec slot is a 15 payline game with a wild, scatter bonus game and loyalty feature. Our free Treasure Temple Aztec slots game works on both desktop and mobile.
Land 4 or 5 scatter symbols anywhere on the reels to trigger the Mask Match bonus feature. In this game, you will see four stone blocks, each of which hides one half of a mask. If you can find both the left and right halves of the correct mask, you will win 500 bonus points in this game.
The journey downriver might be hard, but the Treasure Temple Aztec slot rewards players with stamina!
At the top right of the screen, you can see a gold coin counter. When this counter reaches 5, the stage is complete, and you will gain access to a group of temples where the treasure can be found.
Once you have finished raiding the temples, your gold coin counter resets to zero, and your journey down the river continues. Keep making your way down the river and deeper into the jungle - the more temples you manage to raid, the higher your score will be.
Wild Symbol: The Wild substitutes for all other symbols except the scatter when it is part of a winning payline.
Bonus Scatter Symbol: 4 scatter symbols anywhere on the reels trigger the Mask Match bonus feature.

If the Golden Mummy icon appears, the 'Mummy's Surprise' feature is triggered. The Mummy waits until all the winning amounts are paid out, and then it moves the reel to a different position where which could mean another winning combination is made.
The Pyramid Treasure Hunt is your third way to win big. Land a pyramid icon, and you can collect it. As soon as you get all the four pieces of a specific pyramid, you'll enter the tomb. Inside the tomb, pick any 3 squares on the grid on the temple floor from the 9 on offer. Your choice will reward you with a random prize: bonus cash, free spins, or an extra pick on the grid. Finding a map symbol will take you to a new Pyramid.
The Pyramid Plunder progressive jackpot can be won if you bet a minimum of $4.00 per spin and land 5 of the Pharaoh symbols on a winning line.

We have survived the first day of D23 Expo and we wanted to share some of our favorite moments, some thoughts and our hopes for the rest of the weekend.
The highlight of today, for us, was attending the Disney + panel where LOTS of content was previewed and hyped. We were introduced to the cast of High School Musical the Musical the Series. These actors have big shoes to fill, as High School Musical was a cultural phenomenon when it was released and we think they may do just that. They are talented and the trailer for the show was much better than anything we had envisioned. With such a confusing title, and little information going into this presentation, one might have thought this was a TV show remake of the original, but that is not the case. We were intrigued to see it is a new story of its own about a high school drama department, putting on their own production of High School Musical. Thanks to the trailer shared today, we got to see how this series will honor its roots, while sharing a new story of its own.`
We got a blast from the past in the form of Lizzie McGuire herself, Hillary Duff, who will be reprising her role, as we get to see what 30-year-old Lizzie is up to in a new show.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe is making its way to Disney+ with LOTS of new content, but also LOTS of familiar faces. As had been previously announced, we will see Loki again, played by Tom Hiddleston, now in his own show, as well as a Hawkeye show with Jeremy Renner.
But we also learned about What If…, a new animated show based on the popular comics that ask what would happen in key comic book moments if one thing changed. All current MCU characters in this show will be voiced by the actors we know and love.
Among other things, this will also introduce Captain Carter, voiced by the Peggy Carter we know – Hayley Atwell – which on its own is awesome!
We will also get to meet Ms. Marvel, She Hulk and the Moon Knight in new productions with more details to come in the future.
We will get to spend more time with The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and Wanda(&)Vision. The Falcon and the Winter Soldier will not just give more time to the two name characters, but will also bring back Sharon Carter, played by Emily VanCamp. The later of these, WandaVision, was described as a wacky, action/sit-com… how they plan to pull that off remains to be seen. The trailer did not shine light on what this means, blending clips from their prior Avenger moments with clips from the Dick Van Dyke Show. So, who knows…
We got to see new non-fictional pieces, such as Be Our Chef, a family cooking competition where the winner's dish will be served at Disney World.
Also, The World According to Jeff Goldblum, looks amazing and true to who Jeff Goldblum is. This will be a whimsical journey through the world of jeans, shoes, tattoos and more! Encore, with Kristen Bell, looks very sweet, reuniting old High School theater students to put on an 'encore' preform together after having left high school many years before.
Pixar is also bringing new content to the streaming platform, including Monsters at Work with Ben Feldman and Aisha Tyler, and Forky Asks a Question, which both look promising.
The live-action Lady and the Tramp trailer was released and, as we expected, it looks stunning.
The dog leads, Rose (Lady) and Monte (Tramp), paid the crowd a visit and were just as adorable in person.
In time for Christmas, there will be a new film released called Noelle, staring Anna Kendrick, Bill Hader and Billy Eichner. It has a cute story of the son of Santa running away from taking over the family business and his sister, Noelle coming out to the 'real world' to find him.
The world of Star Wars will be expanding even more with several new shows, including new episodes of The Clone Wars, and an as yet unnamed series with Cassian Andor (and K-2SO) whose characters are being reprised by Diego Luna and Alan Tudyk.
Then we got the (very well received by the crowd) announcement of a new show featuring the return of Ewan McGregor as Obi Wan Kenobi!
Day 1 of Disney + will also include the new series The Mandalorian, telling the story of what happened in the aftermath of The Return of the Jedi and the end of the Empire.
This entire presentation did its job of introducing the new streaming service and inspiring us all to sign up.
We also got to see the Expo Floor a little bit, which has lots of exhibits we hope to finish exploring when we return on Sunday.
Getting into any of the Disney shops is VERY difficult without a reservation, but we did make into the Disney Store and hopefully we will get into one more of the other two on Sunday as well.
So far we are enjoying ourselves here, even with a few hiccups in line management (ah our good old friend LineCon) and can't wait to return on Sunday.
Tomorrow, since all Saturday passes were gone before we got ours, we will be back in Disneyland and watching the news with everyone online. And then, Sunday, we will get to have our last taste of this D23 Expo.
See you tomorrow!

corpus christi sunday!
One of the most famous theologian of the 20th century, Hans Urs von Balthasar says it this way: "When receiving the Eucharist each person must remember that he is falling into the arms of God like someone dying of hunger in the wilderness of this life."
Today we celebrate the solemnity of the Most Body and Blood of Christ! Corpus Christi Sunday! This feast is the heart of our church, and the heart of the lives of each of us. Catechism of the Catholic Church 1322 says "The Eucharist is "the source and summit of the Christian life." Most of the Sacraments take place in the Sacrament of Eucharist.
First Reading Moses recalls the difficulties they encountered on their journey through the desert to the Promised Land. Moses reminds them that God did more than see to their physical needs. To live we need more than bread and water. We need to experience communion with God. We need to realize that what we hunger for most is 'every word that comes from the mouth of God' (Deuteronomy 8:3).
In second readings St. Paul says, "The loaf of bread is one, we, though many are one body, for we all partake of the one loaf." Here we see a great expression of the need to belong-communion with Christ - bound to so close to each other. Jesus gives us his flesh and blood, he gives us his very life, sacrifices everything for us.
In the Gospel of John Jesus said to the Jewish crowds: "For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me and I in him" (John 6:55-56).
Even though the Sacrament of the Eucharist instituted by Jesus Christ, we can see through out the Bible connecting passage to the Eucharist and priesthood. In the book of Genesis 14:18-20, Melchizedek, the priest-king of Salem blesses Abraham and offers bread and wine. He prefigures Jesus, the Eternal Priest and King, who is going to offer bread and wine, sacrificing on the Cross.
In the book of Exodus chapter 24:8, at Mount, God establishes a covenant with Israel through Moses. He took the blood and threw it upon the people and said, "Behold the blood of the covenant which the Lord has made with you in accordance with all these words." Jesus uses similar words at the Last Supper, offering himself and establishing the New Covenant. Again we read in the Book of Exodus 25: 8, "They are to make a sanctuary for me, that I may dwell in their midst." 25:30, "You shall set the bread of the Presence on the table before me always." We see again in the first book of Kings Chapter 7:48 the Bread of presence and Tabernacle in the Temple. Today's Gospel reading from John, Jesus says, "The bread that I will give is my flesh for the life of the world." (John 6:51). Jesus is inviting us to do the same.
I would like to share a story from my hospital ministry period. One Corpus Christi Sunday I was celebrating Mass in Hospital, a lady was sitting in a wheelchair in the center of the chapel. During the consecration, she started to cry. I made a conclusion in my mind that she might be in pain. After the Mass, I inquired her, how she was doing. She told me that it was not tears of pain, but it was tears of joy. She was suffering for a long time; she had thoughts of committing suicide from time to time, but her husband and children gave her the strength to live. She continued, she was thinking about your homily, visualizing Jesus broke and gave his life, and in reality, we are sending out to do the same. She said, her faith gave her the strength to live. She realizes that there is a purpose for her life. God needs her for her husband and children. She said, that day she felt her life is so meaningful.
Every Mass we gather together to celebrate Mass. We bring ourselves as we are to offer to God; with our joy and sorrows: our total life. We become one with Christ's sacrifice. Then we are sent out to break and give our lives to one another. It is not easy, it is painful. But Jesus' Body and Blood give us strength. Let us adore Jesus in Eucharist, and give thanks for many blessings.

Anica Dvořáková was the laureate of the Olga Havel Award 2001.
The Olga Havel Award was given to Anica Dvořáková on the 14th of May 2001, at the monastery of St. Anežka in Prague, for long-term help provided to citizens with hearing defects in the Club of deaf people in Prague 5, which she established in 1990. The Award – bronze sculpture made by Olbram Zoubek "Encouragement" – was handed over by chairman of the Board of Directors Dana Němcová.
President of the Republic Václav Havel, who was present at the event, congratulated everyone.
Anica Dvořáková is chairman of the Czech Club of deaf people. When she was a child, she got partly deaf, and enjoyed an active life of a person who, regardless of her handicap, remains committed to helping others, provides them with information, and makes an effort to improve the quality of their lives. In 1990, she got completely deaf. In that time she established the Czech Club of deaf people and began organizing courses of lip-reading. She tried hard to persuade employees of the Czech Television to start using closed captioning in case of News and quality Films. In 1995, she finally achieved her goal. Mrs. Anica Dvořáková catches others´ attention with her outstanding character and strenuousness. It´s not negligible, that she does all the work with her husband voluntarily.

1 - Anthony Pateras: Lines (WP)
2 - Michael Maierhof: Zonen 5 (SFP)
3 - Burkhard Friedrich: Flug P (WP)
The piece by Australian composer Anthony Pateras was written in 2009 for "Ensemble Intégrales". Lines was composed for a "mixed and amplified sextet", in which the electronics play the role of a sixth instrument. The European scene has been aware of Pateras as a pianist, performer, and "style-mixer" for some time; he was a guest in Basel in 2009 on one of his numerous european tours. The German composer, Michael Maierhof, composed Zonen 5 for a concert with Ensemble Phoenix Basel in the festival "20 Jahre Verein allerArt Bludenz 2008" based on the festival's theme: horror vacui. In this piece, the flute, clarinet, cello, and bass are played using a small mechanical "splitter", which breaks up the instrumental sounds. The percussionist circles upon surfaces of glass and plexiglass, both violins split their tones using an "undertone" technique. A massive, high-frequency sound-world is established, which periodically integrates long pauses. The instruments are distributed throughout the audience so that the sound-splitting results in "sound-particles" that can fly back and forth across the room. In the middle of Flug P, by Burkhard Friedrich (born in Berlin), the modern method of interpreting a score comes into question (specifically: the ensemble's interpretation of one page of the score) as does the classical means of presentation within a concert. In his search for other forms of performance, Friedrich orients himself on the "soft-music" group "Musak" who have managed to perpetually fill public spaces with sound. The sound samples are always the same and are never disturbing, in fact, they seem to be conducive and subversive to shopping and relaxation. Normally, the same thing occurs in the concert hall, except that the "wellness-factor" is paid for and music-making occurs live. Even within the genre of new music it seems that consumer trends are becoming more predictable; one is accustomed to hearing previously unheard sounds, which are then catalogued among other personal experiences, in order that they can then call themselves informed music afficionados. The question remains, what is it that moves us: Is it the live experience, or are there in fact "canned" sounds that can penetrate the soul?

If you went back in time 25 years and talked to a database administrator, they would tell you there's one thing they needed to know in terms of monitoring infrastructure performance: is it up or is it down?
Back then, applications were largely monolithic. When an element faltered, an IBM Tivoli, CA Unicenter, or BMC PATROL agent would pull data on the concerning infrastructure metric. If a server failed, a periodic health check from HP OpenView would send an alert, and whoever was on call would receive the dreaded page that something had gone wrong. IT monitoring largely consisted of waiting for the next event, and the management tools were dependable and reliably expensive.
Fast forward to today. We now live in a world of clouds and increasingly complex architectures. Infrastructure is virtualized and elastic, applications consist of many interdependent services with open-source middleware performing millions of tasks each minute, and updates are constantly shipped and reversed in Docker containers. The life expectancy of any resource in a scale-out architecture can be as short as an hour, compared to previous generations of scale-up architecture, which could run on the same machines for years.
The distributed and dynamic nature of modern applications has turned monitoring into an analytics problem. Autoscale and load balancing make it impossible to judge system health and performance based solely on a view of server status and events. But most organizations still apply this outdated framework to modern environments.
A Framework for Understanding Need
So let's propose a more evolved way to think about monitoring for the modern enterprise. Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is well known to most everyone who has taken an introductory psychology course. Only by satisfying the most basic needs first—such as water, food, and safety—can an individual progress through the various stages of the pyramid to the top, what Maslow called self-actualization (i.e., the pursuit of hopes and dreams).
It turns out this framework is quite analogous to the needs of modern operations and monitoring. Interestingly, organizations moving to the cloud, undergoing digital transformation, and embracing DevOps practices are not unlike humans in their tendency to focus on their future state, rather than ensuring their current, most pressing needs are met first.
I've simplified the Hierarchy of Monitoring Needs into three layers, each of which must be met before progressing to the next:
- Reactive Monitoring. At any given time, which parts of your service are up or down?
- Proactive Monitoring. Actively manage quality and performance. Identify and isolate issues before they impact users. Roll back changes or deploy fixes before a problem escalates.
- Business Value. Correlate user and business metrics with infrastructure and application metrics to make decisions that drive new outcomes and desired results.
Where Are We Today?
In the context of traditional, monolithic applications (e.g., Oracle, Siebel, SAP), monitoring has achieved some level of self-actualization for many enterprises. Infrastructure management is more straightforward in a scale-up context, the metrics are limited, and the applications and monitoring tools have had about 40 years through the 1980s and 1990s to advance to well-understood objectives of business relevance.
Among the small handful of massive webscale companies, a few have reached the higher stages of the hierarchy. At the second level of the pyramid, organizations begin to emphasize self-service and performance monitoring for their applications. Product teams can align development goals and roadmap to insights derived from operational metrics. Canary deployments become a common practice for new features. And performance changes are not only monitored in the context of issues arising, but also benchmarked against scalability, load demand, and infrastructure size. Many organizations believe they are at this stage of monitoring, but only companies like Facebook and Google tend to have the visibility to proactively and confidently experiment with new deployment models.
In truth, the vast majority of operations teams working with a cloud application are trying to cope with needs at the first level of the hierarchy. At this stage, production monitoring is about the primal fear that your customer or boss will know that a service is down before you do. It's an unfortunate reality that systems and applications go down, whether modern or not. One of the first rules of operating in the cloud is that something is bound to happen somewhere sooner than later. But traditional monitoring tools are tailored to a more static environment. Health checks are especially noisy in elastic infrastructures and don't provide advance warning of a troubling pattern. And the pace of change in scale-out architectures also means that a traditional monitoring tool needs to be constantly re-configured to reflect architecture changes, service membership, and alert rules.
Metrics Monitoring for Modern Environments
To overcome the fear of not knowing that some part of your elastic, distributed architecture has gone down, you need a new way of monitoring. By shifting from a static view of your infrastructure to a metrics view, the entire organization can aggregate and interact with a breadth of streaming time series data across the entire stack. For the first time, you can alert on any metric that matters to your use case and compare to meaningful historical patterns and populations to evolve your signal as your services and infrastructure change.
Once you've applied meaningful metrics and alerts to your modern environment and overcome the most basic challenges related to the pace of change, you'll already have the tools to advance towards the next levels of the monitoring hierarchy and the context for a more meaningful analytical approach to both your infrastructure and application operations and your business and customer objectives. Ultimately, operational intelligence is underlied by the ability to ask the right questions and correlate data from multiple sources in a single, real-time view:
- How does a 5% increase in the latency of my login service affect user retention?
- If load capacity for my mobile transactions service is 25% higher than the same time last year, but demand is 45% higher, what will be the effect on revenue?
- How many standard deviations below the mean for throughput on my data ingestion service do I need to be before I miss an enterprise SLA?
As more new applications are developed in the cloud and with distributed, scale-out architectures from the outset, the objectives of monitoring will surely broaden, and web-native organizations will plan for some of the higher-level needs we already see in more traditional, static environments. However, today, as the vast majority of enterprises are just beginning to transition to elastic, ephemeral environments, understanding the fundamental needs of operating a modern infrastructure and application and how they differ from the needs of legacy infrastructures and applications is among the most important steps towards cloud-readiness.
With a new approach to measuring, observing, analyzing, and alerting on operations data—aligned to the sophistication of modern architectures but aiming to remove the complexity of monitoring them—for the first time, it's entirely possible to self-actualize and rise to the top of our Hierarchy of Monitoring Needs.

Italian international has a talent for basketball too.
AC Milan striker Mario Balotelli has been recorded showing off his basketball skills as part of the club's pre-season schedule in the USA.
The Rossoneri are set to face the Los Angeles Galaxy in their final game of the International Champions Cup in the States, as they continue their preparations for the new season.
The Serie A giants also have a Champions League qualifier to prepare for with their opponents not yet known, but Balotelli has taken time off of the the pre-season training regime to display his basketball skills.
The 23-year-old is expected to play a major part in Milan's season as he further establishes himself as one of the best players in world football ahead of the World Cup in Brazil next year.
However, judging from this video he would have no problem in switching the football for a basketball as he attacks the basket and throws down the dunk.
Watch Balotelli's NBA audition in the video below:

Despite the best efforts of animal charities and Veterinary centres, the message still doesn't seem to be getting through.
We are on our 5th animal of the day presenting with acute heat stress brought on by inappropriate care during this extreme heat. Two have died and three more are being treated.
Do not walk your dog today!!! Do not throw balls and allow them to run around the garden with children. They will NOT miss the exercise.
Feel free to share, even if this post makes one person double think their actions it will have been worthwhile!
Shocking that people are so stupid. Poor dogs. I have no sympathy for the owners, they shouldn't be allowed to have dogs.

Is Social Media For Me?
by Betsy Cross
Erasure, Take a Chance on Me
Foreword by Stan Faryna
Of all the things that can own us, shame is the greatest of these. It stands in the way of opportunities, relationships, and self discovery. Shame counsels us to speak softly (or not at all) lest our ignorance become known to others, to enjoy the lawn from the sidewalk when we should be running across it barefoot, and, worst of all, to play our cards (or not play at all) or else.
Or else.
Or else what?
Most of us have seen Brené Brown's TED talk about vulnerability and whole-heartedness. If you haven't seen it, you can see it here. Against your and my better instincts, Brown demonstrates that vulnerability is as beautiful and uplifting as it seems terrible.
If connection is what being human is most about as Brené Brown argues, we cannot connect without vulnerability. Brown explains in her TED talk: we have to let people see us, we have to be us, and we have to feel the feelings that we feel.
Betsy Cross is herself struggling with being vulnerable in social media. She also see others struggling with vulnerability. She observes the social media game of falsified connections, superficial engagement, and an underlying desperation for people to connect to other people. The underlying desperation to connect, she notices, is an apparent contradiction to the vast and immediate opportunities provided by the various social networks.
What's up with that?!
The most obvious problem is the lack of vulnerability, transparency, and authenticity of even veteran social media professionals and influencers. The old guard teach new comers how to do online relationships in a manner that correlate to measurement, analytics, and infographics. But what passes for social media etiquette does not fully address peoples' need for deeper connections. It doesn't help people build things that last – neither life-long friendships nor online communities. Betsy is right when she questions standard social media process.
I am reminded of Emily Dickinson who wrote in a letter: Friends are my estate.
At the end of my days, if I shall compare online friendship to a million silvery ships passing at warp speed among the stars (a breathtaking sight to be sure), my estate will be as cold and barren as the terrible distance between the stars.
Although a newcomer to social media herself, Betsy embraces vulnerability and speaks whole-heartedly in this guest post. She's worried that she doesn't have all the answers. I am honored that she is doing it here on my blog.
Hers is an act of courage and vulnerability. She wanted very much not to take this step, but she did. And I am proud of her for doing so.
Thank you, Betsy.

Last Thursday night, audience members in a nearly packed Woolsey Hall experienced Ludwig van Beethoven's genius in the New Haven Symphony Orchestra's all-Beethoven program.
In his final season as music director, William Boughton, led the orchestra. The program was comprised of 18th- and 19th-century German composer Beethoven's epic Symphony No. 3 and his Piano Concerto No. 4 performed by Yale School of Music Sylvia and Leonard Marx Professor of Piano Boris Berman. The evening was dedicated to the memory of Gordon MacKay Ambach, who passed away last May and who was a dedicated board member of the NHSO board for nine years.
"The Beethoven [Symphony] is one of my favorite pieces and I think William Boughton has just transformed this symphony into … something that's really wonderful," said audience member and Guilford resident Howard Brown ARC '70.
The program opened with Berman's performance of Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 4 in G major Opus 58. This three-movement work, composed between the years 1805 and 1806, premiered in 1808 with Beethoven himself as the solo pianist. This 35-minute concerto is widely performed and recorded and is considered a notable work in the piano concerto repertoire.
"There was a part during the piece when [Berman's] eyes just travelled upward, like he was in his own place — it was really lovely to see that," said audience member Rayne Kim SPH'19, a graduate student in the Yale School of Public Health. "I grew up playing violin, so it's always great to come here. I think Yale has an amazing art scene, so I want to take advantage of that."
In addition to audience members with Yale affiliations, the concert attracted several residents of the greater New Haven area.
"I don't go to many classical music concerts often, so I listen to it a lot or play it myself on the piano or hear my kids too, but seeing it in person is a whole other thing — it seems alive," said audience member Heather Jacobsen, a resident of Madison, a town east of New Haven. "Beethoven in particular is very passionate: You can't help but be moved."
Rafael Gottlieb, a senior at ACES Educational Center for the Arts, thought Berman was "very technically skilled" and considered his performance to be "delicate and very strong at the same time."
The final piece of the evening was Symphony No. 3 in E-flat Opus 55, titled "Eroica." Composed between 1803 and 1804, this four-movement symphony is one of the composer's most celebrated works, marking the groundbreaking middle period of Beethoven's composition career.
Milford resident Frances Gaier enjoyed watching the musicians and noted "how intimately involved they are in the music — you can tell [that] when they're playing their instruments, their whole bodies respond."
The New Haven Symphony Orchestra will perform their annual "Holiday Extravaganza" concerts on Dec. 15 in Hamden and Dec. 16 in Shelton, both featuring guest conductor Chelsea Tipton. The Christmas-themed program of Handel's "Messiah," led by Boughton, will take place on Dec. 20 in Woolsey Hall.

BusABC class, as the name suggests, provides an abstraction of a CAN bus.
The bus provides a wrapper around a physical or virtual CAN Bus.
An interface specific instance of the
BusABC is created by the
class, for example:
vector_bus = can.Bus(interface='vector', ...)
That bus is then able to handle the interface specific software/hardware interactions
and implements the
BusABC API.
A thread safe bus wrapper is also available, see Thread safe bus.
Autoconfig Bus¶
- class can.Bus(channel, can_filters=None, **kwargs)[source]¶
Bus wrapper with configuration loading.
Instantiates a CAN Bus of the given
interface, falls back to reading a configuration file from default locations.
Construct and open a CAN bus instance of the specified type.
Subclasses should call though this method with all given parameters as it handles generic tasks like applying filters.
- Parameters
- Raises
ValueError – If parameters are out of range
can.CanInterfaceNotImplementedError – If the driver cannot be accessed
can.CanInitializationError – If the bus cannot be initialized
- class can.BusABC(channel, can_filters=None, **kwargs)[source]¶
The CAN Bus Abstract Base Class that serves as the basis for all concrete interfaces.
This class may be used as an iterator over the received messages and as a context manager for auto-closing the bus when done using it.
Please refer to Errors for possible exceptions that may be thrown by certain operations on this bus.
Construct and open a CAN bus instance of the specified type.
Subclasses should call though this method with all given parameters as it handles generic tasks like applying filters.
- Parameters
- Raises
ValueError – If parameters are out of range
can.CanInterfaceNotImplementedError – If the driver cannot be accessed
can.CanInitializationError – If the bus cannot be initialized
- __iter__()[source]¶
Allow iteration on messages as they are received.
>>> for msg in bus: ... print(msg)
Log level for received messages
- channel_info = 'unknown'¶
a string describing the underlying bus and/or channel
- property filters: Optional[Sequence[Union[can.typechecking.CanFilter, can.typechecking.CanFilterExtended]]]¶
Modify the filters of this bus. See
set_filters()for details.
- flush_tx_buffer()[source]¶
Discard every message that may be queued in the output buffer(s).
- Return type
- recv(timeout=None)[source]¶
Block waiting for a message from the Bus.
- abstract send(msg, timeout=None)[source]¶
Transmit a message to the CAN bus.
Override this method to enable the transmit path.
- Parameters
msg (Message) – A message object.
timeout (
float]) – If > 0, wait up to this many seconds for message to be ACK'ed or for transmit queue to be ready depending on driver implementation. If timeout is exceeded, an exception will be raised. Might not be supported by all interfaces. None blocks indefinitely.
- Raises
can.CanOperationError – If an error occurred while sending
- Return type
- send_periodic(msgs, period, duration=None, store_task=True)[source]¶
Start sending messages at a given period on this bus.
The task will be active until one of the following conditions are met:
the (optional) duration expires
the Bus instance goes out of scope
the Bus instance is shutdown
BusABC.stop_all_periodic_tasks()is called
the task's
CyclicTask.stop()method is called.
- Parameters
msgs (
Message]]) – Message(s) to transmit
period (
float) – Period in seconds between each message
duration (
float]) – Approximate duration in seconds to continue sending messages. If no duration is provided, the task will continue indefinitely.
store_task (
bool) – If True (the default) the task will be attached to this Bus instance. Disable to instead manage tasks manually.
- Return type
- Returns
A started task instance. Note the task can be stopped (and depending on the backend modified) by calling the task's
Note the duration before the messages stop being sent may not be exactly the same as the duration specified by the user. In general the message will be sent at the given rate until at least duration seconds.
For extremely long running Bus instances with many short lived tasks the default api with
store_task==Truemay not be appropriate as the stopped tasks are still taking up memory as they are associated with the Bus instance.
- set_filters(filters=None)[source]¶
Apply filtering to all messages received by this Bus.
All messages that match at least one filter are returned. If filters is None or a zero length sequence, all messages are matched.
Calling without passing any filters will reset the applied filters to
- Parameters
filters (
CanFilterExtended]]]) –
A iterable of dictionaries each containing a "can_id", a "can_mask", and an optional "extended" key.
>>> [{"can_id": 0x11, "can_mask": 0x21, "extended": False}]
A filter matches, when
<received_can_id> & can_mask == can_id & can_mask. If
extendedis set as well, it only matches messages where
<received_is_extended> == extended. Else it matches every messages based only on the arbitration ID and mask.
- Return type
- shutdown()[source]¶
Called to carry out any interface specific cleanup required in shutting down a bus.
- Return type
- property state: can.bus.BusState¶
Return the current state of the hardware
- Return type
Writing individual messages to the bus is done by calling the
send() method
and passing a
Message instance. Periodic sending is controlled by the
broadcast manager.
Reading from the bus is achieved by either calling the
recv() method or
by directly iterating over the bus:
for msg in bus:
Alternatively the
Listener api can be used, which is a list of
subclasses that receive notifications when new messages arrive.
Message filtering can be set up for each bus. Where the interface supports it, this is carried out in the hardware or kernel layer - not in Python. All messages that match at least one filter are returned.
Example defining two filters, one to pass 11-bit ID
0x451, the other to pass 29-bit ID
filters = [
{"can_id": 0x451, "can_mask": 0x7FF, "extended": False},
{"can_id": 0xA0000, "can_mask": 0x1FFFFFFF, "extended": True},
bus = can.interface.Bus(channel="can0", bustype="socketcan", can_filters=filters)
set_filters() for the implementation.
Thread safe bus¶
This thread safe version of the
BusABC class can be used by multiple threads at once.
Sending and receiving is locked separately to avoid unnecessary delays.
Conflicting calls are executed by blocking until the bus is accessible.
It can be used exactly like the normal
# 'socketcan' is only an example interface, it works with all the others too
my_bus = can.ThreadSafeBus(interface='socketcan', channel='vcan0')
- class can.ThreadSafeBus(*args, **kwargs)[source]¶
Contains a thread safe
can.BusABCimplementation that wraps around an existing interface instance. All public methods of that base class are now safe to be called from multiple threads. The send and receive methods are synchronized separately.
