Imagine if I were to walk down the aisle of your church with a bag of M and Ms. Or if you prefer, Raisinets. Just like the sower in Jesus’ story, I throw the chocolate pellets out into the congregation. Some people would receive the treat eagerly. Others will let the candy just bounce right off of them.
Back in Bible times, farmers used to waste a lot of seed. It was called broadcast farming. Seed thrown everywhere, like M&Ms from a crazy preacher. I can’t begin to explain why they did it that way. I guess there are things that we do today that are just as crazy. Why do we watch hundreds of hours of TV for just a few moments of enjoyment? Why do we post hundreds of things to Facebook or Snap Chat or maintain a Twitter feed? It all seems pretty wasteful.
Is Jesus accusing God of being wasteful? I think this is one of the points of this story, God is not a fiscal conservative. He shares his wisdom into the world in a multitude of ways… but we are too busy answering our email to notice. He broadcasts his love day by day, but we are working too hard to notice. The Bible says, he sends rain upon the just and the unjust. In other words, he throws m&ms at people whom he knows will just let them bounce off. Why? Why does God allow himself to be rejected?
I like what Anne Dillard says about nature. She says, “Nature is, above all, profligate. Don't believe them when they tell you how economical and thrifty nature is… Extravagance! Nature will try anything once.” I was in Cleveland last month and the walls of every building were coated with mayflies. These little creatures that swarm up out of the lake and then die a few days later. Such wastefulness.

Tim Disney, entrepreneur and co-founder of independent film and documentary production company Uncommon Productions, has been appointed Chairman of CalArts' Board of Trustees.
Disney is great-nephew to Walt Disney and grandson to Roy O. Disney, the co-founders of CalArts. His father, Roy E. Disney, also served on CalArts' board and contributed to the construction of REDCAT. Tim Disney replaces Austin M. Beutner, who stepped down as board chair in August of this year to become CEO and publisher of the Los Angeles Times. Beutner remains a CalArts trustee.
Our faculty and alumni have transformed culture throughout the country and the world. I hope to help CalArts carry on the tradition of excellence, and to foster the spirit of experimentation and innovation that have made CalArts one of the country's truly great educational institutions.
"We are thrilled that Tim Disney has agreed to serve as Chair of CalArts Board of Trustees," says CalArts President Steven Lavine. "Tim grew up with, and is deeply committed to, the vision of CalArts as an interdisciplinary, technology-friendly college of the arts, focused on educating the gifted students who will shape the future of art and entertainment. Under his leadership, I am confident that we will carry on, where his predecessor as Board Chair left off, without missing a beat."

In this article I am going to talk about the RoundToggleButton and RoundButton controls from the Coding4fun Toolkit in details. I will explain everything about the main features, available public API, sample usage etc.
Basically RoundToggleButton is an UI component that derives from CheckBox and exposes ImagePath dependency property. As its name says it is some kind of extended toggle button with round shape and inverted image support.
Basically RoundButton is an UI component that derives from Button and also exposes ImagePath dependency property. As its name says it is some kind of extended button with round shape and inverted image support.
To begin using RoundToggleButton/RoundButton first add a reference to the Coding4Fun.Phone.Controls.dll assembly.
RoundToggleButton derives from CheckBox so it exposes all properties and methods of the CheckBox class plus one more : ImagePath.
RoundButton derives from Button so it exposes all properties and methods of the Button class plus one more : ImagePath.
This is a dependency property of type string. It gets or sets the Image of the RoundToggleButton / RoundButton controls.
This property comes from the parent class and is used to set the content of the Button.
NOTE: When adding icons to these buttons have in mind that it is preferable to have two opposite images: Normal and Inversed. Otherwise your icon may not be visible when pressing the button.
Check the MSDN documentation related to composite formatting for reference.
Now lets create a sample project, add reference to Coding4Fun.Phone.Controls.dll (as described above) and add several RoundButtons/RoundToggleButtons . I will also add some more "light" and "dark" icons.
For more icons take a look at UX section of our "WP7 Dev guide" we collect all resources related to the Windows Phone 7 development there.

Figolli are Maltese traditional sweets eaten in the Easter period. Since everyone asked for a healthy version on facebook, here is my alternative and guilt free figolli version. This recipe is gluten free, grain free and paleo.
Figolli are usually made of a sweet almond paste filling between a sweet pie crust. They are then covered with icing or chocolate. I used ground almonds for the pie crust instead of the conventional flour and sugar. I decided to use homemade apple sauce as a major ingredient in the filling and adding only a little more almonds in the filling. The result has a different and softer texture but it is very tasty and with a similar flavor to the well known figolli. Anyone who doesn’t like figolli because they are dry will love this recipe!
It is best to store these figolli inside refregirator. Enjoy and Happy Easter!
Start by making the apple sauce following instructions found here. Let cool.
To make pastry blend all dry ingredient together in the food processor.
Lightly whisk the pastry wet ingredients together and then mix into the dry ingredients until dough is formed.
Cover dough with cling film and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
In the meantime prepare almond filling. Mix all ingredients together and simmer for about 12 minutes until thickened.
Take out the dough from fridge and divide into two parts. Take one part and place it between two baking sheets. Flatten with rolling pin. The sheets will prevent the dough from sticking to the rolling pin or work surface.
Cut out shapes by using an Easter cookie cutter. Remember that you need two cutouts for one figolla.
Use a flat spatula to transfer the pastry shape onto a lined baking tray.
Distribute some of the filling onto each shape leaving a 1cm margin from the edge.
Work out the second batch of shapes and using a flat spatula to transfer the cutouts over the filled bottoms pressing the edge together to seal well.
Bake for 15-20 minutes until the top turns light golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool in tray for 5/10 minutes until they are cool enough to handle. Then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely. (Don’t leave them to cool in the baking tray as they will become soggy from the condensation formed).
To decorate, melt chocolate in a double broiler, cover figolli with chocolate and sprinkle over some chopped pistachio nuts or coconut.
Cover finished figolli with cling film and store in the refrigerator. This recipe makes 5 small sized figolli.
For the filling you mean you simmer the egg whites?

A significant part of why marine mammals have such an impressive ability to use their lung capacity is the unique way in which they utilize oxygen, as well as their greater tidal range. These qualities, enhanced by their anatomy, which has adapted perfectly to life in the ocean, are the key components for explaining how these magnificent animals are able to safely explore even the deepest reaches of the sea.
Most marine mammals are capable of holding their breath for long periods of time. Since feeding, mating and many other activities essential to the species’ survival normally happen below the surface, this skill becomes crucial. Sea lions and cetaceans normally take only one breath per surfacing, while seals and deeper diving cetaceans sometimes spend an extended period of time at the surface. Additionally, larger whales, such as the sperm whale and bottlenose whale are able to routinely travel from the surface down to great depths, sometimes diving as deep as 6,000 feet, and proving that their oxygen stores can withstand enormous pressures and showing a resilience seldom seen in the animal kingdom.
Most people focus immediately on the ability that marine mammals have to hold their breath for longer periods of time. Although this is the goal that they are reaching for, it is also the ultimate result of many intricate, complex processes having to do with the way these creatures use oxygen in the first place. First of all, it’s important to understand that, for each breath of air taken into their lungs, marine mammals – like all breathing creatures – only receive oxygen in proportion of about 1/4. These mammals can reduce the effect of nitrogen and ensure that their oxygen levels are used far more efficiently, also featuring larger oxygen stores that are significantly greater than in the case of humans.
Deep diving whales and seals have reinforced peripheral airways, allowing the lungs to collapse during deeper dives, preventing nitrogen from being absorbed to avoid high blood nitrogen levels. There is, of course, far more to diving deep than just holding your breath. Pressure can have a powerful effect on areas of the body filled with gas, such as the inner ear or the sinuses, just as much as on the lungs. Some types of cetaceans feature an extensive venous plexus, which reduces the air cavity in the inner ear, while sinuses are enhanced through a stronger vasculature that acts in a similar way to help the mammals adapt to greater pressure.
When compared to human lung capacity usage – which is generally limited to about 8-10% while resting and 15-17% when exercising – marine mammals use up a much vaster storage amount, while also actually having larger lung capacities and more resilient lungs, meant to withstand the crushing pressures of the ocean depths. While most phocids tend to exhale before diving (seals and delphinidae generally using less than 25% of their ability to store vital oxygen while diving), creatures like the sea otter are able to maintain 75% oxygen stores. The tidal volume of marine mammals is typically larger than 75%, due mainly to their lungs’ more flexible tissue composition, more cartilage in the ribs and much greater elasticity in the recoil of their lungs, diaphragm and chest cavity, when compared to terrestrial mammals.

Kristen Stewart is the Highest Paid Actress!
Kristen Stewart must be in cloud nine. After her continues movies success, award nominations, etc., Forbes reports now reveals that Kristen Steward is the highest paid actress in Hollywood.
22-year-old Kristen Stewart has made approximately $34.5 million from last year!
Who else brings in the big bucks? Cameron Diaz (17 years Stewart’s senior) came in second with $34 million skimmed off the earnings of “Bad Teacher,” “What to Expect When You’re Expecting” and “The Green Hornet.” The margins grow from there, with Sandra Bullock making $25 million over the same time period.
Forbes is known for these lists, the most coveted of which is the Celebrity Hot 100 (unless if you’re a rapper, in which case your aim is simply the richest people list). Last year’s list of richest TV actresses revealed that Tina Fey and Eva Longoria brought in $13 million each. The richest actor during the same period was Leonardo DiCaprio who brought in an eye-popping $72 million. That year, Sarah Jessica Parker and Angelina Jolie each dialed up $30 million.
For more — including the seven-next richest actresses in the business — head over to Forbes.

thrift Originally the RPC communication framework used by Facebook, it was later contributed to the Apache foundation, which came out earlier, almost supported all the back-end languages, and was very widely used as an unknown network framework.
Like grpc, you need to define communication protocols first and then implement your business logic.
The following methods are introduced.
Note: the repository time is 2017.7 at that time, so context was not supported at that time.
As for the usage of thrift, you can use thrift -help to view help.
The following command will generate the gen-go folder, which translates the above protocol into golang code.
Among them, echo.go is the type and method definition generated, and echo-remote is the client sample code.
The following is a simple example of its use.
message from client: You are welcome.
Note: the protocol used by the server and the client must be the same, for example, the transport factory is buffer transport factroy, and protocol factory is compaCT protcol.

It’s amazing how much faster time passes for kids than for adults. Somehow, when kids are asked to wait five minutes they think it’s been five minutes after only one. On the other hand, if they’re told that they can do something for just 10 more minutes, they’ll insist it’s only been five.
When it comes to keeping teeth healthy, it’s important that we spend enough time covering every tooth surface and getting into every crevice to brush away the icky germs and bacteria that help form cavities. Dentists recommend brushing teeth for 60 seconds or longer, so for kids who have, let’s say…a poor sense of time, it’s not always guaranteed that they’ll brush as long as they should. The new Gum Crayola Timer Light Toothbrush has a creative way to let the kids know how long they’re supposed to brush.
The GUM Crayola Timer Light Toothbrush has a smaller, tapered brush head so it will be more comfortable and will fit into the kids’ smaller mouths, especially kids between 4-11 years old. (The picture shows a side by side of the Crayola toothbrush head on the right next to a larger toothbrush.) The bristles are brightly colored green, blue, and yellow Dome Trim bristles, which helps remove plaque. They are also soft bristles so that they’re gentle on the gums and teeth (just in case the kids brush too hard.
One feature I absolutely love is the rubbery, suction cup base. It allows you to stick the toothbrush to the counter, so it’s standing up vertically. Not only does this help keep the counter clear, but it also keeps the bristles in the air so they don’t pick up other dirty stuff (like soapy water from washing hands.) This feature is so cool, I don’t understand why every single toothbrush – including ones for adults – doesn’t have a suction cup on the end.
You can also try your hand in winning a special GUM brand prize package in the WCatDD Gum Crayola Toothbrush Giveaway!
One winner will receive a Gum brand prize package including: TWO GUM Crayola Timer Light Toothbrushes, GUM Crayola Flossers (in berry, green, and blue), and for the adults – GUM Eez-Thru Mint Flossers and TWO GUM Technique+ Toothbrushes.
THIS ENTRY IS REQUIRED FOR ALL OTHER ENTRIES TO BE VALID (+1): Visit gumbrand.com and tell me what other products you think you would like.
Giveaway ends at 11:59 PM EST, December 17, 2009.
Disclaimer: This post consists of my (and/or fellow tester) opinions only. No compensation was given for this review/giveaway. I did receive a free Gum Crayola Toothbrush Package from the manufacturer or the representing PR agency to use and test for the purposes of this review. This did not affect the outcome of this review.
GUM® Sesame Street™ Power Toothbrush is another product they have that I think would go over well.
The Critters toothbrush is adorable.

it’s amazing how much faster time passes for kids than for adults. somehow, when kids are asked to wait five minutes they think it’s been five minutes after only one. on the other hand, if they’re told that they can do something for just 10 more minutes, they’ll insist it’s only been five.
when it comes to keeping teeth healthy, it’s important that we spend enough time covering every tooth surface and getting into every crevice to brush away the icky germs and bacteria that help form cavities. dentists recommend brushing teeth for 60 seconds or longer, so for kids who have, let’s say…a poor sense of time, it’s not always guaranteed that they’ll brush as long as they should. the new gum crayola timer light toothbrush has a creative way to let the kids know how long they’re supposed to brush.
the gum crayola timer light toothbrush has a smaller, tapered brush head so it will be more comfortable and will fit into the kids’ smaller mouths, especially kids between 4-11 years old. (the picture shows a side by side of the crayola toothbrush head on the right next to a larger toothbrush.) the bristles are brightly colored green, blue, and yellow dome trim bristles, which helps remove plaque. they are also soft bristles so that they’re gentle on the gums and teeth (just in case the kids brush too hard.
one feature i absolutely love is the rubbery, suction cup base. it allows you to stick the toothbrush to the counter, so it’s standing up vertically. not only does this help keep the counter clear, but it also keeps the bristles in the air so they don’t pick up other dirty stuff (like soapy water from washing hands.) this feature is so cool, i don’t understand why every single toothbrush – including ones for adults – doesn’t have a suction cup on the end.
you can also try your hand in winning a special gum brand prize package in the wcatdd gum crayola toothbrush giveaway!
one winner will receive a gum brand prize package including: two gum crayola timer light toothbrushes, gum crayola flossers (in berry, green, and blue), and for the adults – gum eez-thru mint flossers and two gum technique+ toothbrushes.
this entry is required for all other entries to be valid (+1): visit gumbrand.com and tell me what other products you think you would like.
giveaway ends at 11:59 pm est, december 17, 2009.
disclaimer: this post consists of my (and/or fellow tester) opinions only. no compensation was given for this review/giveaway. i did receive a free gum crayola toothbrush package from the manufacturer or the representing pr agency to use and test for the purposes of this review. this did not affect the outcome of this review.

Don't know much about this. A friend got me some bud wood after describing a Hass seedling planted by a friend. The tree is now 10 years old and bears heavily, large pound size fruit, with Hass like taste. I don't even have a picture but this friend is a reliable source of information. If I'm not mistaken it matures around March in California.
I Just hope one of these seedlings may like our So. Florida weather. I have top worked a tree in the grove on February 14. I also I have a back up in 3 gal. which seems to be doing well. In 3 years we may have a fruit to taste. In the mean time we'll see how it likes it here.
May 18, 2013. Top worked tree is doing well, also 2 potted grafts doing well.
November 1, 2013: The tree survived the heat and rain this summer. Seems to be growing well.
December 31, 2013: The tree is looking good, building flower buds. See today's pictures. Curiously this tree is ahead of the Hass in the Flowering process.
February 27, 2014: Expanding inflorescence, should have open flowers in 3-4 days ans we will see flower type. The tree is only one year post grafting. The top of the tree has no flowers because I pruned it a few months ago and is just pushing vegetation with force. Some location on the side only pushing vegetation. Typical first year, with some luck we could see fruit.
April 4, 2014: I see a couple of very small fruit. Let's hope they set and grow. Does not seem likely.
November 8, 2014: Seems like the few fruit it set still is hanging in, a little larger than Hass. Not sure when to pick this. In Cal. the fruit stays in the tree over 12 months. I don't know if it would do that here.
December 26, 2014: Picked one of the two fruit on the tree. They seemed to be getting dull. It came in at 8.5 oz. Nice size for a Hass growing in Florida. Let see how it ripens.
January 13, 2015: The two fruits did not ripened properly. The tree is building flower buds will give it one more year.
February 3, 2015: The tree has a few open flowers.
March 3, 2015: Has a lot of open flowers seems to be going slow at it. I see fruit set in the top flowers.
May 21, 2015: The tree has set quite a bit of fruit and its growing it well, seem to be ahead than regular Hass. No fruit drop.
June 14, 2015: The tree is holding the fruit well, good fruit set for its second flowering. Seems to be earlier than Hass sightly bigger.
September 19, 2015: The fruit does not seem to be growing a lot from the observation in June. Rare, because the heat is up and has rained a lot in the last 6 weeks. Some fruit is small others larger....Dwarfism ? Like Hass?
October 18, 2015: A lot of small fruit has dropped. What is in the tree seem to be growing very little. I picked the fruit in today's picture, came in at 7.8 oz this is like a larger supermarket Hass. It does have larger fruit than my regular Hass, but the Hass is more prolific.
October 26, 2015: The fruit picked did not ripen well, typical problems of small Guatemalan fruit in this area. All sorts of flesh deterioration, uneven ripening, watery, sub cutaneous watery spots or rot. Reminds me of the Florida Hass problems, See today's pictures.

Want to be notified of new releases in Wign/Wign?
The idea of Wign is inspired from a post by Kenneth Andersen in a blog of Danish Deaf Youth Association (DDU). Wign is a is about a sign language encyclopedia (not to be confused with dictionary!), which everyone can contribute and share with signs for rarely used terms. A social danish sign language platform very alike Wikipedia.
The milestones for the process is at our To-do.
The project was run by DDU and 12K, but failed due to complicated setup and communication issues with the website provider. Now we releases the code behind the project open source and collaboration-based, as Wign self.
The project is run by Wign IVS, to contribute to a richer sign language sharing among us danish deaf.

It always surprised me to find that some of the cops I worked with did not wear body armor, aka bullet proof vests, while on duty. One of my good friends was recalcitrant in wearing his armor. It was not a cost issue, the police department provided perfectly serviceable armor for free. He claimed it was uncomfortable, too hot, and “if it was his time, body armor wasn’t going to help.” The last excuse was the one I scratched my head about. Tying your risk of injury or death to fate, with no reasonable interventions, seems fatalistic and foolish. As to his other complaints, those are rubbish as well.
Let’s take a look at some of the body armor available and why it makes sense to use it. Security Pro offers both external carriers and concealable body armor. External carriers are designed to be worn over your clothing, with no concern for concealment. The world can see you are wearing armor. This is both a good thing and a bad thing. If you are in a permissive environment, where body armor is desired, and not shocking to those around you, I would encourage the use of an external carrier. A product, such as GH Armor Tactical Outer Carrier, for example, allows you to add the ballistic panels that best address your suspect threat. These are great for Law Enforcement, high visibility operations, such as warrant service, and the like. You can add both soft panels and hard panels to the carrier for protection that will stop even rifle rounds. The pockets allow for equipment such as handcuffs, non-lethal tools like pepper spray, and the all-important pen and notebook.
Concealable vests, while they are not as convenient as the external, tactical outer carrier, are actually more functional in many cases. Many police agencies still insist their officers wear concealable body armor so as to not worry the citizens or give the wrong impression. In this day and age, how cops appear to the public is an important part of the general perception of their effectiveness. For that reason, concealable body armor makes sense. Officers can still appear friendly, and approachable, without making the neighborhoods feel like a war zone, and still have excellent ballistic threat protection. Personally, I always wanted the best body armor available. For that I look to level IIIA armor. Quality body armor is tested and rated by the National Institute of Justice (NIJ). If you are looking at body armor, and it is not rated by NIJ look elsewhere. There is no guarantee of its abilities or protection level unless it’s tested and certified by NIJ. One of the stand out products offered by Security Pro is their SecPro T-Armor Concealable Vest. Here is a vest which you can wear all day, under your uniform, in comfort. The level of protection runs from level II to IIIA, which is rated to stop handgun rounds all the way up to the .44 magnum, which is an impressive feat for something concealable, comfortable and all-day wearable. While lower levels are available, I personally always opt for the most protection I can afford. The price difference is negligible and I think my life is worth the extra cost.
But what about civilians? Is there a need for the average citizen to own and use body armor? I think the answer is a clear “yes”. I see more and more citizens moving to concealed carry as a means of protection. I support the lawful use and carriage of guns by private citizens. I also feel that if someone carries a gun, for fear of a gunfight, they should also consider using a concealable vest as additional insurance. Take for example, the jeweler who got a concealed carry permit because they transport expensive gems from shop to shop. If they are in a neighborhood, with a high crime rate and a significant probability of robbery or armed assault, they should strongly consider a concealable body armor vest for such errands. An excellent example of such a vest is the SecPro CVIIIA Concealable Vest. Because of the Velcro side release, this vest is easy to don and remove by simply loosening one side of the Velcro, slipping it over the head, then fastening the Velcro. A jacket, light sweater, or even a tee shirt will now conceal the vest while you go about your tasks. This vest is also rated to stop .44 magnum rounds. It offers excellent protection and the price is very affordable.

Business Tianjin Magazine - News Noetic & Untitled Black. Nov 7. Buy tickets!
Noetic & Untitled Black. Nov 7. Buy tickets!
Multiple award winning and constantly topical Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui created Noetic, along with a distinguished team comprising sculptor Antony Gormley, fashion designer duo Les Hommes, and composer Szymon Brzóska.
The creation explores man's instinctive need to structure every detail of our existence, and our longing to break free of the rules and discover what lies beyond them. With at times mechanical, at times flowing, classical movements, the dancers construct, change and deconstruct reality.
Untitled Black by Sharon Eyal/Gai Behar is pure, multi-layered, emotional choreography. Through its atmospheric and futuristic movement, embedded in a structure of strong composition, it takes us into a fantastic parallel universe. Live music by DJ Ori Lichtik plays an important role. Untitled Black has been created specifically for GöteborgsOperans Danskompani and eight dancers from Batsheva Dance Company.

The Broadway musicals of Cole Porter – from “Kiss Me Kate” and “Anything Goes” to “Silk Stockings” and “Can Can” – set the standards of style and wit to which today’s composers and lyricists aspire. He also penned some of the cleverest, funniest, and most romantic songs ever written.
In The songs of Cole Porter, Dominic gives a fascinating insight into Porter’s turbulent life and performs many of his most enduring songs.
The playwright, songwriter and actor Noël Coward personified English elegance and wit.
The versatile French composer Michel Legrand has produced an impressively broad range of music in his long and illustrious career, ranging from film soundtracks and French 'chansons' to jazz and classical music.
When Jerome Kern died in 1945, America lost one of its greatest and most beloved composers.
The songs of Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart have long been favourites of cabaret singers and jazz artists.
