sky. Now that’s something that the attendees are not about to forget anytime soon. By creating the right kind of memories during the event, the feelings of happiness, trust and enjoyment become entwined with the memory of the event and THAT is the success of a truly great launch gimmick.
Attendees can’t be too excited about product launches but with the right combination of gimmicks not only would they look forward to the unveiling, it will be embedded in their memory and nothing quite beats the effect value of a good old smoke blast.

As the name suggests, an inverter energy saving air conditioner comes with an inverter, which plays a key role in its superior performance. An inverter is an electric power conversion circuit that regulates the voltage,In non-inverter air conditioning systems, the compressor motor is designed to operate at constant speed or single speed only. Essentially, this means the air conditioner operates either in the “Full Power” mode or “No Power” mode, just like a fan heater which switches on when the temperature drops to a set level and off again when the desired temperature is reached. This mode of operationcan compromise energy efficiency and comfort in a home or office.
In inverter energy saving aircon systems, the compressor motor elected temperature setting. This regulation of the speed of the compressor motor is achieved through the use of a system of circuits, which includes an inverter.e

Budawang (Infinite Song Contest 2016 finalist)
Where we would head to drink our pleasure, you know
On the corner is a busker with accordion
Budawang is in my ears and in my eyes,
There beneath the blue Canberran skies
I sit and lean right back.
In the Container is the Pride Choir for an hour or so
Coorong, Marquee, Carnival, Piazza
Behind a table in the middle of the session bar
The volunteers are selling Guinness from a tray
Surrounded by the violins that play
In Budawang we'd rather have another Fagans song
We see the audience all waiting for a sing
With four-part harmony it flies, in autumn
Meanwhile back in
Budawang is in my heart and in my mind
There beneath the flags and sunny skies
(performed by Nicole Murray, Keith Donnelly, Peter Grayling and George Butrumlis)

Is there anything left to say?Af't been said?
One friend has offered this: "That each generation thinks they know more than anybody else who has ever lived. In a way, that's a good thing because it allows for new ideas."
But how new are those ideas?"I guess we have to live with a certain amount of repetition under that system," she says. "Relying on what previous generations wrote would be so boring. Our ego demands that we pick and choose from past works if we heed them at all."
Heck, even the words are fuzzier. Consider "dog." It seems simple enough, but includes great Danes and chihuahuas, Scotties and dobermans. As a genus, it includes wolves and foxes. It also describes our feet when we've walked too much; the iron rack that holds up fire logs; the woman that male chauvinist pigs consider unattractive; a worthless and contemptible person. You can "put on the dog," and show off; you can "dog it," by being half-assed; you can call a bad movie a "dog;" at the ballpark, you can buy a couple of "dogs" with mustard; if you only partly speak a language, you are said to speak "dog French," or "dog German;" past failures can "dog" you; if you are suspicious, you can "dog" his every move. "Dog" can be an anagram of "God."
Imagine, then, how loose are the bounds of "good" or "bad," or "conservative," or when someone tries to tar a candidate as a "socialist." Sometimes, a word loses meaning altogether. What, exactly do we mean when we talk of morality or memory, or nationality or the cosmos?

On the bridge, heading south
Pensacola, Florida, and Gulf Breeze, Florida, U.S.
Philip Dane Beall, Sr., Memorial Bridge
15,640 feet (4,767.1 meters)
October 31, 1960 (current bridge)
The bridge, which is dedicated to Sen. Phillip D. Beall Sr., opened to traffic on October 31, 1960, at which time it replaced the Thomas A. Johnson Bridge, a narrow two-lane facility that ran parallel just to the east. This original bridge, which had been in service since June 13, 1931,[2] was tolled and was signed as TOLL US 98 until the bridge bonds were paid off. The decommissioned original bridge served as two 1.5-mile-long fishing piers until they were largely destroyed by Hurricane Ivan in 2004. By 2007, the remainder of the northernmost fishing pier was demolished. Demolition has begun on the southernmost part of the fishing pier. In 2010, construction was completed on a northern replacement fishing pier about half as long as the original pier.[3]

Increasingly postgraduate courses are delivered on-line so as to meet professionals’ demands for life-long learning. Research examined the distance learning environment and the efficacy of students critiquing each other's seminal work, by either direct exchange or via online fora, as a structured part of their formal assessments.
A total of 377 students were given standardised learning environment inventories and some undertook qualitative interviews. Students from three subjects were given the experimental pedagogy of structured peer critiquing (SPC), while students from two subjects were a control group without SPC. The research findings show significant differences in environment across most demographics and by prior academic achievement. The research found that SPC was more effective for students with lower or average prior achievement and led to improved perceptions of their learning environment. Forums were found to be a more subtle means of structuring critiquing and engagement than direct exchange; however, care is also needed to ensure online debate is incisive.
Encouraged by the incisiveness of the standardized environmental instruments, future work is proposed to benchmark the overall University’s postgraduate distance program using an environment inventory specific to tertiary distance learning and another to on-line Constructivist pedagogy.
This session will be held at UNSW Canberra in LT03, Bldg 30. We have booked Central Lecture Block 2 for those of you who would like to come and watch the livestream at UNSW Kensington. Alternatively, you can also access the livestream as it is happening via our Connections Moodle site.

Goals not achieved in fast-track land reform
HARARE, 4 November 2002
Among the initial goals of the land reform programme in Zimbabwe was the resettlement of people from densely populated communal rural areas to newly acquired farm land.
However, in the rush to implementthis has not happened, say analysts and the would-be beneficiaries of land reform. They also point to signs that cronyism has affected land redistribution.
John Chirova, 55, seems a bitter man. Chirova comes from Chiweshe district in the sprawling Mashonaland province, a region renowned for its rich soil.
But instead of busying himself with the acquisition of agricultural inputs during the pre-planting season, Chirova spends most of his time at Nzvimbo Growth Point in Chiweshe, on the look-out for anyone who can buy him the opaque beer popularly known as "scud".
"For the past two years, we have been battling to get plots of land with no success. Here in Chiweshe we are still packed like jailbirds. Nothing has changed whatsoever," Chirova said.
He told IRIN how he was forced to give part of his already tiny plot to both his married and unemployed sons.
For Chirova and the thousands like him, the fast-track land reform programme represents a shattered hope.
Analysts say there exists ample evidence to prove that the broad objective of President Robert Mugabe's government to "achieve optimal utilisation of land and natural resources and to promote equitable access to land to all Zimbabweans" was far from being achieved.
Despite Mugabe's statement last July that decongestion of communal areas had been achieved through the land redistribution programme, analysts and the intended beneficiaries of the exercise say rural areas are still densely populated.
"There is considerable lack of decongestion in some areas," said Professor Sam Moyo, a land expert.
Professor Moyo believes the resettlement of people in rural areas - where the majority of Zimbabweans live - was being frustrated by the manner in which land was currently being redistributed.
"Some farmers under the [commercial farming] A2 model have excessive pieces of land, with some of them owning two to three farms each. This obviously tends to limit decongestion," Professor Moyo said.
A cabinet minister who recently visited Mashonaland Central's Mount Darwin district also voiced her concern about the lack of resettlement in the area.
"There was chaotic allocation of land in the district with the council waiting list not being followed," the cabinet minister, Olivia Muchena, was quoted as saying in a local daily newspaper.
Mashonaland Central, also blessed with fertile soils, is home to more than a million people. However, Elliot Manyika, the governor of the province and Minister of Gender, Youth and Employment Creation admitted that only about 15,000 people from the province have been resettled.
This despite the deadline for the processing of the applications of people wishing to be resettled having passed two months ago.
In Chiweshe most homesteads resemble tiny villages. Generations of families share the plots of their parents and grandparents. More mouths to feed from the already low yields from farm plots.
In areas like Padare, Kanyemba, Gweshe, Howard, Mutsarara and Panzvimbo, residential space is fast running out. As a result, it is becoming a familiar sight for homes to be sited on hills in the rocky terrain.
Despite the Chiweshe people, who number more than 100,000, having registered for resettlement, less than 1,000 have been moved.
"I am sure the governor and the provincial land committee have something against the people of Chiweshe," Chirova mused.
Manyika acknowledged that no resettlement occurred in Chiweshe from the early 1980s when the government began land redistribution. The area was also overlooked during the second resettlement phase in the 1990s.
A similar scenario to Chiweshe can be found in the other provinces: in Manicaland, Masvingo and the Midlands.
The lack of a transparent and effective redistribution programme has been blamed on corruption.
A senior member of the war veterans' association, Mike Moyo, said his organisation would carry out a land audit because of the numerous complaints it had received.
"We are extremely disturbed by the reports we are receiving. We decided to carry out an audit of how land is being distributed after many people approached us saying there are so many corrupt practices in the allocation of land," Moyo told IRIN.
Moyo said the main culprits were apparently provincial governor as well as the land committees tasked with the processing of applications and the allocation of land.
He added that most of the reports were received from peoDisgruntled would-be beneficiaries have complained that the government officials ask for bribes and other favours in return for a recommendation of their applications. In other cases, it was alleged that they favoured friends and relatives or supporters of the ruling ZANU-PF.
In Mashonaland West's Banket area, concerns have been raised that ZANU-PF loyalists are using their political influence to obtain farming plots for their children, some of whom are still going to school, under the communal or A1 resettlement programme.
John Mautsa, the said: "We are aware that families are being involved in the multi-ownership scandal. However, the problem is difficult to stem because some of the culprits use different names."
Official figures put the number of beneficiaries under the A1 model at 330,000 while 54,000 have been approved under the A2 model. When the fast-track programme started, the government said it intended to resettle more than a million people over a three-year period.
The recently appointed Minister of Land Reform, Flora Buka, played down allegations of corruption in the land redistribution exercise.
"Concerning allegations of corruption in the provincial land committees, I do not have evidence. I can't act on the basis of speculation," said Buka. However, she said her ministry was doing an audit in the provinces and investigations could follow.

Valuation using discounted cash flows is a method for determining the current value of a company using future cash flows adjusted for time value. The future cash flow set is made up of the cash flows within the determined forecast period and a continuing value that represents the cash flow stream after the forecast period. Discounted Cash Flow valuation was used in industry as early as the 1700s or 1800s, widely discussed in financial economics in the 1960s, and became widely used in U.S. Courts in the 1980s and 1990s.[1]
3 Using the DCF Method
3.2 Determine the yearly Cash Flow
3.3 Determine Discount Factor / Rate
3.4 Determine Current Value
3.5 Determine the Continuing Value
3.6 Determining Equity Value
value of firm = ∑
{\displaystyle \sum _{t=1}^{n}{\frac {FCFF_{t}}{(1+WACC_{g})^{t}}}+{\frac {\left[{\frac {FCFF_{n+1}}{(WACC_{st}-g_{n})}}\right]}{(1+WACC_{g})^{n}}}}
FCFF is the Free Cash Flow to the Firm
Process Data Diagram[edit]
The following diagram shows an overview of the process of company valuation. All activities in this model are explained in more detail in section 3: Using the DCF method.
Determine Forecast Period[edit]
The forecast period is the time period for which the individual yearly cash flows are input to the DCF formula. Cash flows after the forecast period can only be represented by a fixed number such as annual growth rates. There are no fixed rules for determining the duration of the forecast period.
‘MedICT’ is a medical ICT startup that has just finished their business plan. Their goal is to provide medical professionals with software solutions for doing their own bookkeeping. Their only investor is required to wait for 5 years before making an exit. Therefore MedICT is using a forecast period of 5 years.
Determine the yearly Cash Flow[edit]
Example: MedICT has chosen to use only operational cash flows in determining their estimated yearly cash flow:
In thousand $
Determine the appropriate discount rate and discount factor for each year of the forecast period based on the risk level associated with the company and its market.
MedICT has chosen their discount rates based upon their company maturity.
Late Start Up
Determine Current Value[edit]
Calculate the current value of the future cash flows by multiplying each yearly cash flow by the discount factor for the year in question. This is known as the time value of money.
$ -21.96
$ -9.24
Total current value = 62.14
Determine the Continuing Value[edit]
Calculating cash flows after the forecast period is much more difficult as uncertainty, and therefore the risk factor rises with each additional year into the future. The continuing value, or terminal value, is a solution that represents the cash flows after the forecast period.
MedICT has chosen the perpetuity growth model to calculate the value of cash flows after the forecast period. They estimate that they will grow at about 6% for the rest of these years.
Determining Equity Value[edit]
The value of the equity can be calculated by subtracting any outstanding debts from the total of all discounted cash flows.
MedICT doesn’t have any debt so it only needs to add up the current value of the continuing value and the current value of all cash flows during the forecast period:
62.14 + 332.72= 394.86 The equity value of MedICT : $394.86

After I used Wordpress for more than 10 years to power my website, I now switched to a custom static site generator.
While I certainly see a value in Wordpress and other CMS's for large and complex sites, it has mostly only been a pain for me.
I also don't really see a value in comments after having run my blog for a long time. Most comments I got are just "Thank you" or quite specific problem descriptions that simply aren't helpful for others and don't provide any extra value to the readers, which should be the point of comments in my opinion. If you need help with my software, either write an email to me or even better open a bug report in the specific places.
As a result, I decided to roll out my own small (template-based) static site generator that takes plain text files as input and generates the pages along with an index.
I will most likely transition the most popular posts from Wordpress to the new system over the next few months and I'm aware that I'll break pretty much all links to my site. But at the end it's fter all.

Tht Chinese of China’s Internet giants when it comes to mobile, with analysts worrying about its ability to attract and make money off smartphone users.
The second-quarter numbers for Baidu, China’s search giant, also give some context to Qihoo’s recent successes: Though Qihoo has one of China’s largest mobile-app stores, revenue has yet to pop to levels that would place it in the ranks of China’s largest Internet companies.
Qihoo—led by one of China’s most vocal Internet executives, Zhou Hongyi—has been on the attack against Baidu for a year.
In August 2012 Qihoo launched its own search service, whose market share by traffic quickly passed 10% (still far short of Baidu’s almost 70%). Mr. Zhou followed up his search challenge with comments in interviews and on social media questioning Baidu’s credentials as an innovator—and even questioning whether Baidu violated the law when it placed advertisements for Botox treatments.

MAGNUS CARLSEN, THE REIGNING WORLD CHESS CHAMPION 2014
“Honestly, we never thought of Magnus as a prodigy and bringing him up wasn’t in any manner different from bringing up my other children. We treated him in the same way as the others in the family because, as I said, he never appeared to be different in any manner.”
“ll.”
Responses by Magnus Carlsen’s father, Henrik Carlsen when he was interviewed during the heatheld in Chennai, India on November 2013.
The touch of becoming a chess genius is already apparent to a young Magnus Carlsen. At two years of age, he could solve jigsaw puzzles with more than 50 pieces and turned to constructing different models of Lego, a toy that is already a challenge to most of the teenagers and with all honesty, the adults too. At the age of 5, to everyone’s astonishment, he could tell you the area, population, flag and capital of every country in the world. A deeper understanding of these circumstances would suggest that Magnus Carslen had the qualities of becoming a great Chess player.
Magnus Carlsen, as a child prodigy, has not been put under the stern pressure from his parents. In fact, he has enjoyed a normal childhood who loves the great outdoors, fresh air and physical exercises. His parents, in 2003 took the entire family out of school for a year for an adventure of a lifetime, touring the entire Europe with their minibus. The plan was partly dictated by the international engagement of Magnus Carlsen to play chess.
When it comes to studies, a child prodigy seemed to be destined of losing the interest to enter school. Magnus Carlsen was at the age of 16 when he quit his studies. This is not a surprising move. In one of the articles here at this site, we also wrote about Bobby Fischer’s stopping from school at the same age.
When being regarded as the “Mozart of Chess”, Magnus sounded a bit inconvenient of the compliment received agre"

we’ve recently read.
“Please Undo This Hurt” has a set of definitive characters as well as a steady build to what I found to be a deeply satisfying conclusion. The only issue I can take with this story is a fairly personal one: I don’t know if I quite get it. I found the characters robust and the story engaging, but after the first read I did feel like I had missed a small something ― a clue or a hint ― something that would make it a truly powerful read. I’ve read it a couple more times now and I think perhaps it is just me, because it is really a gorgeous tale. ~ Skye Walker

Editor’s note: Kat Hooper also reviewed Perfect State in our Feb. 22, 2016 SHORTS post and rated it 4.5 stars as well. (2010, free at Nightmare Magazine [reprint, May 2016 issue], Kindle magazine issue)
“Twittering from the Circus of the Dead” utilizes the familiar construct of micro-update-based social media to present a narrative that puts the reader in a spectator role. On any given day there are stories and anecdotes being told over social media. This is presented as one of those stories. With this context and given that I’m a fairly active Twitter user, I enjoyed the micro-update format. It made the tone and pacing very familiar to me and, as I mentioned earlier, it cleverly situated me as a spectator to this small part of Blake’s life, just as she becomes a spectator at the circus.
I don’t read an awful lot of horror (this piece is more of a horror/fantasy) but when I do it is short pieces like this one. Though “Twittering from the Circus of the Dead” didn’t leave me scared of my own shadow, it was a satisfyingly creepy short tale. ~ Skye Walker

“La beauté sans vertu” by Genevieve Valentine (April 2016, free on Tor.com, Kindle version).
In a near-future science fiction tale, high-fashion models for couture fashion houses routinely get their arm bones replaced with those from corpses of young teenagers, just for the slenderness of the bones, despite the fact that it leaves the tips of their fingers blackened. And that’s just one of the often torturous treatments that models are subjected to in the highly artificial fashion industry.
The one who was kind married a prince, and spent the rest of her life granting audiences and coughing up bouquets and necklaces for the guests. The one who refused was driven into the forest, where there was no one who wanted anything fetched, and she could spit out a viper any time she needed venom, and she never had to speak again.
It’s 1960 and Jonathan Chambers, a reclusive former university professor who was fired due to his unorthodox ideas about metaphysics, takes his usual walk around the neighborhood one evening. When he gets home, he realizes that his walk, the same walk he’s been taking for twenty years, took only 30 minutes instead of the usual 45. Something is definitely wrong. As he begins to look for clues, he discovers that a street in his neighborhood is missing, the architecture of his neighbors’ houses look distorted, and things are starting to get blurry. Is he going crazy? Or could it be that those unorthodox ideas he had so long ago weren’t as wrong-headed as his colleagues thought?
First published in Comet in July 1941, this short story, which was probably inspired by the huge number of deaths caused by the World Wars, is mildly entertaining and is slightly reminiscent of works by Edwin A. Abbott, Philip K. Dick, and H.P. Lovecraft. ~Kat Hooper

I would have liked more discussion on WHY adoption has become so important and rose so quickly in certain churches. Even after reading the book, I didn't get a sense of this. Obviously, money has a hand in this, but I don't believe that is the major reason. I also would have liked more exploration of how the adoptive families cope with the information that their adoptions may not have been on the up-and-up now that there is little they can do to reverse it. I know many families that have adopted from pretty much every country that was outlined in the book. Most felt they did due diligence at the time and some even met the biological families at the time of adoption, but, according to this book, there still might have been misunderstandings about the process with the bio families. How do adoptive parents deal with this emotionally while still being the parents their children now need?How do they work for improving the adoption process without their children feeling as though their adoption was a mistake. ...

Easter and Mother’s Day – reflections from women in our community
Robinaanglican May 5, 2022
The women in our communityjoy for me since I commenced in my role as associate priest in January 2021. Thank you to you all!
Through worshipping, talking and listening with one another, praying, planning, working, caring for others, laughing and drinking coffee together, we have been companions ‘on the way’ in life and faith.
Their stories of serving the mission of our church and ‘mothering’ people in our community in many and varied ways go back years – decades even. Every week I hear new stories of how women have served our church and the wider community, recently and in days gone by, locally and in other places, as Christ’s hands and feet in our world. I have memories of my own mother taking Sunday School and youth groups, leading women’s groups, arranging fetes and fashion parades of home-made clothing (aka fundraising!), cooking, sewing, arranging flowers and a hundred other things to contribute to the life of the church. All this while she worked in her own profession. I learnt so much from her passionate example.
These stories inspire and encourage me to find my own way of serving, as I am, where I am, for this time. I’m reading Archbishop Rowan Williams little book Being Disciples (highly recommended!) and came across this quote which really speaks to us all, yet particularly women I think, as we can often underestimate who we are and what we have to offer, especially when we find ourselves at a time when we can no longer do what we once did:
“I am more than I realise, in the eyes of God.”
Simply by being who we are and sharing our lives with one another we can be a source of encouragement to others, and perhaps in ways we may never know.
Two women from our community have written this week to share something of themselves as an encouragement to others. Please read on to hear Marianne Harrison’s reflection on Holy Week and Easter, (thank you Marianne) and then from someone else about an experience of mothering.
Encapsulated in this beautiful piece are many of the real and raw emotions evoked when mothering children and young people and people we encounter in our daily lives. Thank you to our anonymous author for their insight.
Mother’s Day can be a day of mixed emotions or even none. As we gather for worship on Sunday we have tried to create a safe place for everyone to come and worship God and be together in safe and life-giving ways.
With every blessing as you ponder the ways you may be more than you realise in the eyes of God – and in the eyes of others in our community,
Marianne Harrison reflects on Easter …
I have been a member of Robina Anglican Church for many years and have to say Holy Week up to and including Easter has been a very enlightening time for me.
Yes! We did need Easter more than ever.
The early part of 2022 was challenging for me with health problems, and also losing my very Best Friend, Del Kolberg. Not having Del in my life has been difficult. It has been a very emotional time for many of us. I was looking forward to Holy Week, hoping I would find something meaningful to help me with my belief in Jesus Christ.
I have been very moved by all the Easter Services as I’d hoped, but it still came as a surprise to me that I would feel something deeper and more precious during these services.
I have been attending Church most of my life, but this Easter I discovered something more. For this I thank our ministry team for showing me the way.
A reflection on mothering from someone in our community
The homeless man and a mother’s heart
There’s a homeless man sitting in the park a few metres from me. Under the shelter, asleep in his fold-out camp chair. All his earthly belongings neatly piled into a shopping trolley beside him, covered by a tarp, ready for when he will be inevitably moved on by council officers, police or a family wanting to use the BBQ. He will no doubt be gone by the weekend.
It’s Thursday today. It has been raining. A lot. But he seems to own a Drizabone, incongruous with his social or financial status, perhaps a donation, perhaps a lucky find at an opshop. It is hanging up behind him, drying out. Just like the man.
I am here because I am waiting for my sixteen-year-old daughter to finish her therapy session. I like to sit here in this park by the Broadwater, looking at the boats, the houseboats, the high-rise buildings to my right not so much. The still grey-blue water calms me, the seagulls soaring into a murky grey-blue sky a suggestion of how far we can reach if we only try.
I hope her session is going well, that the counsellor is helping her deal with the ever-present anxiety that too often threatens to break as strong and as beautiful girl as God has ever put on this earth. I admit to a mother’s bias, but it is also true that she regularly has this impact on people, from their first encounter, and she does not even know it. I hope that she will one day believe it herself. I can’t convince her of it myself. Yet. My parental bias being too great.
For now, this is all I can do… take her to her session, pick her up, patiently wait while her emotions settle (stirred as they are by talking) and feed her lunch afterwards.
Because when I tell her about the homeless man, the one I could not help because I had not a dollar in cash on me and I did not wish to disturb him anyway, she will rage about the injustice and inequality and unfairness of the world. She will want to come back here and bring him some food or have a chat. If not today, then one day. But I already know, he will not be here next time.
When she crumbles, it is like watching one of those high-rise buildings implode. Beautiful glass and strong steel collapsing on itself. Usually without warning. I wish I could reach inside her and pluck out the shards of glass that cut her from the inside and stick them into me instead.
Or fold her up and put her back inside my body to keep her safe. Just like every mum when their child is hurting. Just like every parent I pray that she will feel better soon. God does not transfer her pain to me, although I feel it in deep inside my bones.
So, I ask God to make me stronger, better, so I can understand, so I know the right thing to say or do. And I try not to focus on what could happen if I fail. If we all fail. And I shudder to rid myself of the tears that spring to my eyes because I remember…. And I want to tell my friend that she did not fail when her beautiful boy just could not do it anymore, when his exhausted heart and mind gave in to the demons he could not shake off. He was fifteen.
I stand and shake my body out and bend and stretch because I have to go now, and I have to pull myself together and I don’t want to tell her what I have been thinking… it will make her sad.
The homeless man stirs. Possibly disturbed by the sound of my sobbing. Or maybe the sound of a seagull shrieking its goodbye as it soars into an impossibly bright blue tomorrow.

Shine a Light: Careful Negotiation. Good Outcome.
The sailors quite a few years ago.
I've been married for 34 years ... over half my life ... to the same person.
Other times negotiating the mine field of differing wants/needs can be more than frustrating. Trying to achieve an acceptable outcome for both of us can expand into the realms of maddening, exasperating and downright infuriating.
Well I can happily say we've reached a final compromise. And one that doesn't mean I have to give in. Hooray! George will sail from Rosslyn Bay, where the boat is now, to Manly marina near Brisbane with one of our rally friends. I'll fly up and join him for a week or so while we visit friends there and then he'll sail the boat down to Sydney with other friends. Perfect. Good outcome.
Can someone tell me how these negotiations could be easier. Is it possible? Or, is it just human nature - marriage or not - to have to wrangle with others before a compromise can be reached? I guess that's the case .. we still wage war and our politicians are getting more contrary. It's a damn shame it takes so long to just HEAR each other.

Ass kicking, space travel, the boom animebabes that make you think the wrong thing (thank you, Barenaked Ladies).
As a kid, I remember jumping off the bus, and running home just to catch Toonami on Cartoon Network. At 4 o clock, it was time to watch Freeza get his ass handed to him in 30 separate episodes. No matter how many times it happened, it was always great to watch Goku scream "Kamehameha"ain. Yes, there were throw away characters. It was great. So, lets discuss the major points as to why this show was better than Golden Girls, South Park, Three's Company, and any other show ever.
First of all, fireballs and energy blasts. There is not a person in the world who wouldn't mind blowing up a car by throwing a ball of compressed heat at it. There is also not a person in the world who wouldn't want to give "Final Flash" to that ex girlfriend who cheated on you.
Next point; all of these people could fly. This is a give in. "Hey, I'm headed home, see you guys!" BAM! And away you are. As far as super powers go, this one is quite incredible. No matter the situation, you would always be able to get out of it, and make cheesy jokes at the same time. "I'm flying, and Mikey Hawkins can't. What a loser."
Villains. There were always awesome villains. People were always killed, brought back to life through wishes, then killed again. Vegeta is the most likable heel in television. Only in Dragonball Z does someone stop rooting for the good guy, and is so stoked when he gets his ass kicked by his arch nemisis. It's like watching Superman, hoping the whole time Lex Luthor crushes his skull.
Speaking of people being brought back to life, the show killed off main characters...more than once! How many times did Goku get blasted into oblivion, only to return when Cell or Buu showed up? And it was always awesome. It's over 9000!? You're damn right it is. Let's see Golden Girls kill off Dorothy, and explain how she's still rooming with the other broads.
Fighting. This show displayed the most ridiculous fight sequences in any show...ever. Faster than the eye could see, punches demolished entire mountains. And it always seemed like the fighters would find the most remote places on earth to cause earthquakes and destroy mountains. No matter the fight, some part of the earth's surface was given a total makeover. And someone died.
There are just some shows you wish you could be a part of. Sure, shooting webbing to keep Doc Oc from killing an old lady would be pretty cool. I wouldn't mind being able to create a solid object with a magic ring to slap around some evil lantern corps with. Hell, I would love to communicate with sea creatures. In the end, though, I want to live my entire life fighting evil, alien villains using special energy powers that permit me to fly and shoot fireballs from my hands.
So, my friends, please reference the top of the page. There is noone in the world who would deny it. And there is no other show in the world that makes someone feel like that.
I saw Bear Grylls do that shit once on man vs wild.
10 minute power-ups...backed 100%."

Australians have always believed that immigrants should assimilate. They would not be persecuted, and they could assimilate at their own rate, hopefully adding useful features of their own culture to the mix, but they had to become Australian. The first time we ever heard about "multiculturalism" was when it was announced by the Whitlam Labor Government of 1972-75. As someone who was there at the time, I can assure you this was never mentioned in their election campaign. Perhaps it was included in some small print of their manifesto, but they never mentioned it to the electorate. Nor was there any popular demand for it. It was just announced out of thin air.
A number of other radical changes were also introduced without prior consultation. Imperial honours were cancelled, even for those who had already been told they would receive them in the New Year. (Whitlam was elected in December.) They announced that a new, Australian honours system would be introduced (which for a time included a knighthood - everyone has forgotten that). They cancelled the full page ads for British migrants which used to appear in British magazines and newspapers. British citizens would no longer be allowed to arrive without a visa as they had been previously, and as New Zealanders still are. Again, none of these policies had been announced prior to the election, nor had there ever been any popular demand for them. They were based solely on a disdain for Australia's identity as a British nation. It was a feature of this wing of politics: anything which has been honoured and esteemed for time immemorial must be got rid of.
Eventually, however, they realised that continuing large scale Asian immigration was just the thing needed to further destroy the Australian identity. Nothing could demonstrate the attitude better than the speech by Bill Hayden, then Deputy Prime Minister:.The trouble is, that is not what the average man and woman in the street wants. Which brings us to the events of 1984. One of our most respected historians, Geoffrey Blainey made a speech in which he pointed out that bringing in large numbers of immigrants at a time of high unemployment, and ensuring that 40 per cent of them came from Asia, with a bias against British immigrants, was not a very sensible way to achieve social cohesion. That set the cat among the pigeons! Public opinion pis view, but it was too much for the left wing establishment, which went into what was to become its usual modus operandi of vilification. They labeled him a racist.
Which brings us to the 1996 election. Parties traditionally put their raw recruits into unwinnable seats. Oxley was a safe Labor stronghold, so the Liberal Party ran a new, completely untried candidate in that seat: Pauline Hanson. But when she made a speech opposing Asian immigration, the fat hit the fire. The rest of the party scurried for cover. They were terrified of being called racists. They disendorsed her. After all, she couldn't possibly win the seat. They thought it better to throw a raw recruit to the wolves than be seen to support her views.
The trouble was, the Keating Labor Government was so unpopular by this stage that she did win. If they had let her stay in the Liberal Party, they could have shut her up, but now she was an independent, and free to speak her own mind. Pretty soon, people was encouraging her to form a party of her own. This, of course, brought out the usual hatemongers. As one journalist quipped: One Nation was the only party with an initiation ceremony: anybody who wanted to attend one of its speeches had to run the gauntlet of screaming, abusive mobs.
- Abolishing the policy of multiculturalism, which has always been unpopular with the general population. Again, the Howard Government did nothing. Not only has the lip service been kept, but hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars are still being donated to ethnic communities for the express purpose of helping them maintain their foreign identity and not assimilate. And the irony is, the Coalition is acting against its best interests in doing so, for the communities assisted in this way tend to vote Labor. In Australia, as in Britain, Europe, and North America, the political left operates on the principle of divide and rule. Rather than supporting social cohesion and the factors which unite us, they seek to divide us into tribes, and curry favour with minorities. They also work to increase their power by bringing in more minorities and bribing them with welfare, as well as destroying the national identity of the natives. Which brings us to the third sensible, and popular policy:
No, it was worse than nothing. The last act of the Bligh Labor Government was to introduce LNP promised they would look into repealing it. Of course, Bob Katter was harshly criticized for running an ad revealing Campbell Newman's dirty little secret: that he was a supporter of same sex "marriage". On coming to power, the first act of his Government was to break the promise; they kept the law, but simply removed the ceremony. With that act of treachery, they forfeited any respect they once had.

Spence here: On this gloomy Northwestern day, I am realizing time is flying by. It is already the middle of May and plans for June have begun to book up the weekends–as it is, the rest of May is spoken for. I rarely like this level of busy-ness and planned activity. It is akin to parents enrolling their children in every extra-curricular thing they can to instill order and productivity and drive. I was lucky growing up in that my parents recognized and heeded a healthy balance of structure and wildness. Lately, however, I have noticed I have been losing a bit of my barbarian qualities, as far as spontaneity–my socks and underwear are folded!Ugh!
We were also able to finish work on our bamboo canopy, erected on the south side of the music studio for our outdoor kitchen. We are using poles grown next door, with twine and para-cord for lashing and a heavy duty boat tarp for the roof. I really appreciate the process of working with the bamboo, as opposed to working with the materials of the roof on the studio. We are cutting the bamboo by hand, and mostly using lashings to keep it together, a seemingly lost art in our first world country (except for survivalist/bushcraft extremist websites, which I love!
Keep a special eye out for Saturn this week, which is in opposition to the Sun on the 22nd of May. This means that Earth is exactly between the Sun and Saturn. Not only is Saturn closest to Earth at this point of the year, it is brightening steadily as the rings widen to their maximum in 2017. If you have a telescope or even binoculars, this is a great time to look for Saturn’s rings as it rises in the East after sunset. A medium telescope in good conditions may resolve as many as five of Saturn’s 62 known moons, though I’ve only consistently spotted the largest moon, Titan. Saturn takes roughly 29.45 years to orbit the sun, which means that oppositions happen at this frequency as well. In another 14.725 years Saturn will be halfway through its cycle again, conjunct with the Sun. What were you doing about 15 years ago?30 years ago?What were you starting?What were you dreaming about?Fifteen years ago I had just moved out of my parent’s house; I was making indie B movies with my friends and dreaming of being a successful film score composer. I tripped over some stumbling blocks on the way and ended up helping my family run a successful coffee shop instead. Alas, I’d take artistic success over entrepreneurial success any day, but it’s not too late to start over!
Just now, our spacecraft Dawn has gone into orbit around the dwarf planet Ceresr past another dwarf planet Vesta. Ceres, surprisingly spherical in shape,bout 2.5 times smaller than the dwarf planet Pluto. Dawn has revealed some interesting bright spots on the surface of Ceres in a crater of its northern hemisphere. Is it reflective water ice?Is water, a building block of life as we know it, much more abundant than we dare imagine?Is the propensity for life and all of its creativity much more abundant than we dare imagine?
How is this related to creating our own dwellings?
In Peter Turchi’s book, Maps of the Imagination, he relates how in the 17th century a name was needed for a book of maps, as there was no common word for such a thing. Several words were suggested, including, quite interestingly, the words mirror and theater. The word that was settled upon was a Greek mythological reference: Atlas. How we organize the world, is it a reflection, a story we tell ourselves?And do we not build our homes to reflect these stories?
One could say, with satellite imagery, that we are strict realists these days…

P.J. Fleck might be on the precipice of big things in the B1G Ten. After leaving our beloved Western Michigan Broncos, he has a mediocre year at Minnesota. The following year, he was slightly above mediocre and then he won his bowl game. There is a solid chance he is setting things up for success with the Golden Gophers.
I think he might have still had more success in Kalamazoo.
n’t? A few extra bucks? Better opportunity?
If P.J. Fleck stayed at Western Michigan, he could have broken glass ceilings. He could have done things never done before. Opportunities at other schools would have still been there, provided he kept winning.
Right before he left, I wrote a “letter” begging him to stay. Not because I am a WMU fan, I am not, but because I thought it would be good for him, and good for the conference. Two years later, nothing has changed my mind.

How many photos can a food photographer shoot in one day? It all depends on the complexity of the photos. You can see where one type of food photo would take longer to shoot than the other.
Number Of Food Items Per Photo
Similarity of Shots
The actual time it takes to take a photo is about 1/250th of a second. It’s the setting up that takes all the time. Deciding on a background and props takes time. Getting everything onto the set takes time,, composing and lighting takes time. Getting the camera angle, and correct focus takes time. It all takes time, but lets say that shot #2 is exactly like shot #1, except that the cookie in shot #1 is chocolate chip instead of a ginger snap. The time it takes to do shot #2 will be FA less than it took to do the first one and lets say you had a dozen flavors to shoot like that. You can see where you could get a lot of those shots done in a relatively short period of time, whereas if you need to change out the background, the props, the camera angle, the number of cookies in the shot, the lighting, it would take substantially long per shot. It might take a LOT longer.
Food Stylist Or No Food Stylist
A food stylist will make almost always create better food for photography than will a chef. That’s what they specialize in doing. To create this degree of perfection, takes time. Chefs are faster than stylist. There’s no denying that. So, as a client, you need to make the decision as to just how perfect you want these photos to be. Perfection takes time. Working with a stylist, we usually average around 4-6 shots in a day whereas working with a chef, we can usually double that, if not triple that. (What does a food stylist do?)
Time Required For Food Prep
Another factor that affects the number of shots we can do in a day is the amount of time we need to style a particular type of food. As an extreme example, a cookie takes less time to prep than does a turkey. Enough said…
Some clients insist on shooting food in their restaurant of test kitchen. This has an effect on the number of shots we can do in a day in that we need to pack up for the move and unload all our equipment. This takes time that we could be shooting, but there are times when this is the best decision. It’s just a factor.
Assistant Or No Assistant(s)
Having a photo or stylist assistant involved with the shoot makes the shoot a little more expensive, but may actually reduce the price per shot by making everything run more efficiently, allowing us to get more shots done in a danumber of shoots that we can do in a day. So if you call me or email me ask me this question, you’ll need to be able to able to supply the answers to a few questions…
What foods will we be photographing?
Will each food photo be all shot on the same background or different backgrounds?
Will the shots be “outlined” of white, or will they be in environments?ith what goes into a food photography shoot and what goes into determining how many shots a food photographer can get done in a dayyou can either email me or call me 412-232-4444. I’d be glad to help out in any way I can.

Hello, I am a noob. I am on a new macbook pro. When I try to create a character I can't figure out how to set the name of the character. The screen says Name, and has a back button but when i type nothing happens. Is there a bug or am i missing something?

Discounts on Assorted Cases!
Quiara Alegría Hudes has written an embracing play about an urban cast of characters, who congregate at the North Philly bar, Daphne’s Dive, during the late 1990’s and first decade of the millennium. Daphne (Vanessa Aspillaga) is just the seasoned and savvy kind of friend we’d all like to have, and she serves drinks, too. She’s toughened by the former men in her life, plus a series of losses and crises, but every day she opens her bar, which she owns with pride, and readies herself for her visitors. The final character, Ruby (Samira Wiley), in a breakout role, becomes the central focus of the play, as we watch her mature in language, education, and poise, and, unfortunately, in adult levels of fear and alcohol addiction, with the bar’s ready bottles of liquor making woes vanish.
When the intermission-less play opens, 11 year-old Ruby, who hides among the trash cans, is looking for a home, as her parents had just been arrested, and she dashed into the street When the play presents its final scene, Ruby is 27, tending the bar and calculating its books. As each scene opens, Ruby announces her age. This is how we analyze the sequential conversations and recent past events, some of which we have not witnessed. One of those offstage and off-the-book scenes is a disaster that happens to one of the characters, and Ruby, upon hearing the news, is frozen in existential terror. She regresses to a state of utter loss, more tortuous than in the first scene, when she was found huddling outside the bar. Ms. Wiley exuded the requisite pain and pathos that gave her character so much magnetism and depth. We also witness the falling apart of Inez and Acosta’s marriage, as Acosta wins a local political office that enhances his community reputation, with the help of Daphne and friends, while also winning favors from young attractive women. We watch Pablo’s art career stall, then flourish with a gallery show in progress. We watch Rey, mostly observant and looking for company, add support to the clan’s mutual nurturing. And, we watch Daphne, whose life has been just as hard as her peers, but her skin was thick and she struggled and survived, especially after adopting Ruby, following her fateful find. She needed a child, and Ruby needed a mother. It’s that kind of play, but without the sugary gloss.
Thomas Kail, Director, keeps this production intensely urban and naturalistic. I had the feeling I could take a train to North Philly, step into a corner bar, and find a similar enclave of needy souls. Donyale Werle, set designer, added the requisite amount of worn linoleum, vinyl, and wood, with a cheap, stained glass light fixture and lots and lots of liquor bottles, in all shapes and sizes. Toni-Leslie James’ costumes were most striking in Jenn’s bikini in American flag motif and her boxes of scarves for a street stunt, thanks to Acosta’s helpful gift. In fact, one might say that “help” is an operative word in this play, with each character offering emotional, or financial, or logistical, or practical, or familial help for one another, to the best of his or her unique abilities. The loss of one struck hard. It left the remaining characters tightly bonded, whether in fleeting or permanent relationships. Rarely does a new, one-act play induce such thought-provoking introspection. Kudos to Ms. Hudes.

Last year's @media eventt was great to see so many leading experts in one place talking passionately about the Web, and spend time amongst like-minded people. Not only did I come away with great memories, I also left the event proud to call many people that I respect in this industry friends.
I'm delighted that this year I will be part of an accessibility panel discussing WCAG 2.0 with Andy Clarke, Patrick H. Lauke, and Ian Lloyd, all of whom I have the greatest respect for. I can't help feeling a bit intimidated, but I'm sure the panel will go down well with the delegates.Eric Meyer, followed by an impressive list of speakers over the two-day event (four days if you count the pre and post social parties). Last year's event sold out, so be sure to register early for this year's event. If you attended last year's event, you'll qualify for an early-b.
@media 2006 takes place on the 15th and 16th of June, and I hope to see you there!
Nice pun I'd better get reading, too.
I'll be there, and would be nice to meet you. Don't think Johns going to make it.
One day I will get round to meeting up for a beer though... I know... I keep saying it... sheesh, it'll soon be christmas...
I have just bought me ticket!
Andrew, I've only heard good things about you - looking forward to meeting you.

The above notion is widely known as the "endosymbiotic theory". In a symbiosis, both partners attain benefits: mitochondria support cells. In return, cells willingly feed mitochondria, which in turn allows the “evolutionary invaders” to maintain their vital membrane potential of about -150 mV.

moEight unmissable hiking routes in Valais
Here are eight of the best hiking trails to explore in Valais.
You'd be hard-pushed to find a hiking trail with better views than this spectacular hike which shows you the best of Aletsch Arena. You start at the viewpoint Moosfluh, with its fantastic vista over the 20km long Aletsch Glacier and to the Matterhorn.
Head onwards and the glacier stretches out on the right-hand side and in front of you the iconic peak of the Matterhorn.
To check out options for guided walks, see aletscharena.ch and to book the Aletsch Glacier trip, go to aletscharena.ch
This trail is ideal for keen hikers who want to combine one peak with the other. Walking a high-altitude trail from viewpoint Bettmerhorn to Eggishorn offers you a spectacular panorama on both sides of the trail. On the one side you can drink in the magical Aletsch Glacier and on the other side the valley stretches away beneath you.
Care is needed on this route as it is a high-altitude trail. Reward yourself at the end of the hike with a delicious lunch. The mountain lunch package is the ideal ticket for this as it includes not just all cable cars but also the lunch in one of the restaurants. Less experienced hikers can do a similar hike with the same phenomenal view walking around the viewpoint Bettmerhorn.
The views of many towering mountain peaks in this high-altitude paradise are pretty much unsurpassed.
The Ibex Trail
The trail leads over the stony Mällig ridge where hikers can enjoy a wonderful view over the Saas Valley and the majority of its 4,000-metre peaks. Head into the wild and romantic Bider area and through the lovely larch forest back to Saas-Fee. One particular highlight of the trail is the way it switches between wooded and rocky mountain paths. This is a demanding tour - best started early in the morning - and is not verythe trail, go to saas-fee.ch
Région Dents du Midi, offering over 1,000km of natural beauty year round.
In summer, some 800km of hiking trails and 600 km of mountain bike trails await outside your front door, with quaint alpine restaurants and sunny terraces at strategic intervals along the way. In winter, the snowy landscape is a study in stark contrasts, from the hushed mystery of the frozen back country to the invigorating hustle and bustle of 600 kilometres of state-of-the-art groomed ski slopes.
A walking classic. Very popular amongst the inhabitants of the Région, this emblematic route, inauguarated in 1972, takes you across 57km of diverse landscapes with a 3700m vertical gain. And if you don’t feel up for the whole 57km straight away, don’t worry, there's also the option of tackling the route over several days, including a stay on the trail, leaving from Champéry, which you can book here.
Tour des Dents Blanches
It’s well worth the effort though, as the panoramas are striking. Alpine huts provide rest and refreshment and a welcome night’s sleep along the way. You can book 3 or 5-day packages departing from Barme (Champéry) with accommodation, evening meals, breakfasts and picnics. Take a look at some options at tour-dentsblanches.com. You can also sign up for an afternoon on the farm - great fun for families! - at regiondentsdumidi.ch.
Find more information about this route at regiondentsdumidi.ch
Nendaz & Veysonnaz
Located right in the heart of the Valais, Nendaz & Veysonnaz not only offer breathtaking views of the Rhône Valley and the Alps, but are the gateway to the 4 Vallées, the biggest ski area in Switzerland. During summer and autumn, discover the region by walking along the many mountain irrigation channels called bisses, or explore the area on more than 250km of hiking trails.

To me, intimacy is the joy that comes from being close and personal. It’s something I crave in my marriage. Although intimacy is more than just “sex”, the very best sex occurs in relationships where there’s deep intimacy!
I was curious about how one can improve the intimacy in their relationship. I stumbled across this formula, and it made sense to me:
Vulnerability + Trust = Intimacy
efines vulnerability this way:ra M..”
Couple attunement is “in-to-me-see” intimacySee
Connection and attunement (tuning in to each other) comes from the way we talk, listen, pay attention, touch, and treat each other. Eye contact, holding hands, hugging, and especially sex that’s bonding release the oxytocin neurotransmitters in our brains that build strong biological and emotional bonds in marriage. Showing empathy and sincerity in the relationship help us tune to each other.

Would love to hear from you! </s> Happy Friday! How stunning is that Fall image above?! I feel like we have just a teeny tiny bit more time to soak up Fall before winter comes along. This weekend my pal Erika is getting hitched and I can't wait to see her marry her love in a stunning barn venue. It's going to be so pretty! I'm contemplating putting my Christmas decor up on Sunday since I'll be out of town the weekend following Thanksgiving - we are having a bonfire party for my 30th birthday at my boyfriend's farm!
Best weekend plans
As I mentioned, Erika's getting hitched!

Have a lovely weekend, folks!
Would love to hear from you! Peter Mallory -
As I sit here reading your latest blog, I can't help but smile to myself and for more than one reason . . .
Mostly, I'm smiling because I'm relaxing this evening with the well-earned satisfaction that today was my sixth consecutive day of training . . . and I have tomorrow off.
Perhaps your young men just need a good dose of experience! After all, what's some old fuddy-duddy blowing hot air out the end of a megaphone compared to the raw, legs-on-fire, sucking air experience of having undertrained for race day?
"Everyone has heard the adage, 'The Will to Win.' Great athletes, great people, have something more than the will to win. They possess a tremendous WILL TO PREPARE TO WIN. 'Prepare' is the key word, for even if the desire to be successful is present at the moment of competition, those who are unprepared have little chance.
"It’s a challenge to your self-determination to prepare for the competition through disciplined hard work. That kind of commitment to work allows you the chance to win at the moment of your greatest challenge. Take advantage of the time you have to prepare. The greater the challenge ahead, the greater the need for the will to PREPARE to win!"

How do I learn to rig an access dinghy?
Reading a copy of the manufacturer’s documentation can be a good start. Manly Sailability have also produced a video guide.
The SSC Access Dinghy Rigging Check list might also be useful reading. It includes information about how the SSCQ rigging procedure differs from that shown in the Sailability Manly videos, for example, SSCQ do not use the roller reefing systems in the manner shown in the Manly video.
Why all the fuss about consistent rigging of the dinghies?
It is essential to the comfort and safety of both skippers and clients. Consistent rigging means fewer surprises on the water for skippers, clients and safety boat operators.
How does a volunteer learn to sail an access dinghy?
If you lack prior experience then it will help to learn to sail any type of dinghy first. This document describes a few of the fundamentals of sailing an access dinghy. For practical instruction, you may ask an experienced friend for help or seek a commercial provider of instruction. If you have already mastered the basics of dinghy sailing then your next step is to read the SSC

A digital video radio (DVR), allows you to record your favorite TV programs and then watch them when it's convenient for you. DVRs can even pause live TV and record it, so you can leave the room for a few minutes and come back without missing any of the program. DVRs give you the option of recording two shows simultaneously [source: Time Warner]. The one limitation DVRs have is the storage space. Once your DVR's storage is filled up, you'll have to either delete some of what you saved or expand its storage capacity. There are external hard drives available that are designed to expand the capacity of DVRs [source: Wong]. We will now tell you how expand your DVR size by connecting an external hard drive to your DVR.
Place the external hard drive in a convenient place next to the DVR.
Locate the SATA port on the back of the DVR and on the back of the external hard drive. These are the ports that the eSATA cable will be connected to.
Plug one end of an eSata cable into the SATA port of the DVR and the other end into the SATA port of the external hard drive.
Plug the DVR into a wall outlet. As soon as it reboots, it will automatically recognize the new hard drive [source: DirectTV].

Day 5 – Q 1.Why did Mahatma Gandhi’s philosophy and political programme had a wide popular appeal? Analyse.
1. Early successes in India: Through Champaran satyagraha, Ahmedabad mill strike and Kheda satyagraha – he demonstrated the utility of satyagraha and non-violent struggle.
Practical philosophy and political programmes: tools like Satyagraha and ahimsa could have been used by every section of the society especially the masses. The methods like petitions, constitutional struggle hitherto used were not possible to be followed by masses.
He held all India public meetings focused mainly on the participation of masses.
The political programmes of Gandhiji included Dalit upliftment, women emancipation and hence found widespread participation of these sections.
Further, the philosophy of Sarvodaya, Antyodaya etc., tried to address the prevailing issues including inequality, rural poverty, food insecurity etc., and hence was widely supported.
Thus, Gandhian way of struggle was not limited to any section of the freedom fighters. He was able to unite different factions (religious, social etc.,) and more importantly was instrumental in finding wide appeal among masses.

J night. A double amputee, Jose′ is a retired professional musician who is making every effort to keep living in his Conover home as long as possible. At the same time, he is motivated to avoid isolating himself as do many seniors with challenging health conditions. To achieve this goal, Jose′ gets help from his eleven children. While many check in on him regularly by phone, the four living nearby make frequent visits. Together with members of the staff from PACE@Homy devised a daily care plan that helps keep Jose′ safe, healthier and active. His routine involves having home healthcare services before and after daily transportation to the PACE@Home facility in Newton. Here, he takes has professional care from a team including a physician, registered nurse,a Spanish-language translator. It was through the efforts of his PACE care team that Jose’ received the emergency medical device that he considers a lifesaver. “The Lifeline system has really proved its worth,” said Regina Peeler, a registered nurse with PACE@Home. “We subscribed Jose′ to the Lifeline medical alert system with the AutoAlert feature to help address his numerous fall risks. Wearing the Lifeline pendant 24/7 gives Jose’s family members and his expanded care team the additional assurance of knowing he can get immediate medical attention even if he is at home alone and unable to push the pendant’s button.” Carol Robinson, Catawba Valley Medical Center’s Lifeline Coordinator explains that falls among seniors are a huge problem and even more so for diabetics. A recent Philips study shows seniors with diabetes fall 30 percent more often than those without a chronic condition and these falls can result in debilitating injuries like head trauma. To manage diabetes, Jose′ has made many lifestyle adjustments including altering his diet, participating in physical therapy and following a strict medication regimen. “Even with all the medicine, sometimes my [blood] sugar level isn’t right and I get light-headed or dizzy,” he says. “I feel better with the Lifeline because I know that it can automatically call for help even if I pass out.“ Jose′ has made friends at PACE and looks forward to daily visits with his Spanish speaking buddies.

Not until his second term as provincial was Father Kearney able to execute this plan. The decision to erect a new studium generale in Washington, D.C. was taken on 2 January 1902 and Father Richard Jerome Meaney was placed in charge of the project. Having taken up residence at St. Dominic’s across town, Father Meaney road his Rambler bicycle over here to the (then) Bunker Hill Road building site every morning to supervise the work.
We owe to Father Meaney the existence of a detailed account of the progress of the construction from the development of the initial plans, through the groundbreaking ceremony on 23 April 1903 and the laying of the cornerstone on 16 August of the same year, to the blessing of the new building on 20 August 1905 and, finally, to the dedication of the chapel on 4 February 1907.
Moreover, the province had fulfilled the traditional Dominican expectation that a studium generale be located in the vicinity of a major university. Cardinal Gibbons—who had since 1890 urged the Dominicans to establish their stud—happily presided at all of the founding events of the new Dominican House of Studies. For their part, the friars were delighted that, while maintaining its independence as a studium generale, the Dominican House of Studies would enjoy a wide range of mutually beneficial exchange and.
In the hundred years since its foundation, the Dominican House of Studies has fulfilled and even surpassed the expectations and the dreams of its founders. It has turned out to be a distinguished center of learning and teaching in the Order and beyond. The intellectual formation received by the friars at the Dominican House of Studies led to such widely diverse initiatives as the foundation of Providence College, the Theology for the Layman movement, and the establishment of Blackfriars Theater (cf. Vidmar 2005 passim.). The parishes and parish missions conducted by the Dominican friars became famous for the quality of preaching and pastoral care that they provided. Dominicans holding distinguished professorships at Catholic University and teaching at Catholic colleges throughout the nation insisted on a high level of theological teaching based Aquinas’s Summa Theologiae as opposed to the more catechetical approach of the so-called kerygmatic theology (cf. Di Noia 2009b). These teachers also contributed to the cultivation of a potent Catholic intellectual culture in the US (cf. Gleason 1987).

One of the reasons that Colorado is so well-loved by its residents is, of course, the mountains. Those beautiful Rocky Mountains that weave their way through the state are really what we are known for (the mountains were famous long before the legalization of marijuana came to town folks). The mountains are no more than a day’s drive from almost anywhere in the state, and that is what makes Colorado so wonderful. My family and I love to venture to the mountains for day trips, whether that’s driving up famous Pikes Peak, hiking a fourteener (one of Colorado’s many peaks that climb to amazing heights of at least 14,000 feet), kayaking in one of the state’s many giant mountain reservoirs, or camping under the stars. The mountains are truly the gem of Colorado, and many Coloradoans live by John Muir’s famous quote that “The mountains are calling, and I must go…”

Windows Server 2012 R2 preview
Applications New version has key features for small business
Page 1 Page 1 Page 2 Microsoft has suggested one of the most important features in Windows 8.1 is how many new features it's gained in just eight months. Actually that's far more appropriate to Windows Server 2012 R2, which has new features aimed not only at large enterprises but at smaller companies.R2 has functions for managing 'bring your own device', remote access and storage that will appeal to smaller businesses, especially as the can be managed through the simplified Server Manager dashboard. It' – as a role, to get the simplified remote access and client backup tools, even if you have more than the 25 users to which Server Essentials has previously been limited.PowerShell 4 also adds new tools, including Desired State Configuration. It can prevent configuration drift – so you can keep the server the way you want it – by specifying the configuration as a state, rather than just a set of commands to run.Add Server Essentials as a role to get its client backup tools for more than 25 users Insta 1.4GHz 64-bit CPU, 512MB of RAM, 32GB of free disk space and a Gigabit Ethernet adapter, but it will happily run as a virtual machine on an existing Windows Server 2008 R2 or 2012 system. (If you want to upgrade an existing test server, that can be running Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard with SP1 or 2012.)Internet Explorer 11's security settings are extremely high by default. This is a good thing for a server, but you'll see multiple challenges just to download components from the Microsoft site, and at least during configuration you'll want to consider turning off Enhanced Security Protection.The Server Manager interface is little changed from Windows Server 2012, with the same clear dashboard overview and the same Roles and Features wizard. This now asks whether you want to add general server roles and features or configure the server for (a VDI configuration is quite different from a general server setup so it's helpful to be able to specify that immediately). Automatic installationThe Windows Server Essentials Experience is now on this list, but many of the new features are installed automatically with the appropriate role. If you install the Hyper-V role, for example, virtual machines will be automatically compressed when you live migrate them, which improves migration times. If you're having problems with a virtual machine, it's easy to export a working copy of it without having to shut it down first, so you can take a copy for troubleshooting and still carry on using the server. You can also copy files into a running VM and even resize virtual hard disks, as long as you're using VHDX files, and set the maximum and minimum IOPS for your most important VMs to prioritise their performance. The new BYOD, remote access and storage features show up, logically enough, in the File and Storage Services section. The wizard for setting up Storage Spaces makes it clear that if you choose to thin provision (by not installing some of the disks until you need the space) you can only add files until it's 75% full. That's the same limit as in Server 2012, but many admins missed the warning before. SSDs will be used automatically when added to a Storage Spaces poolThe new storage tiering features are also easy to set up. When you include SSDs as part of a storage space and enable tiering, Server R2 automatically caches files that are used more often so users can access them more quickly. If you want to prioritise specific files and folders, you can mark them to be stored on an SSD yourself.

Mini Transat: Why do it?
Why race in the Mini Transat, over 4,000 nautical miles, across the ocean solo, and in a 21’ sail boat? Peter Gibbons-Neff, racing in the 2021 Mini Transat as an ambassador for U.S. Patriot Sailing to raise awareness, explains.
U.S. Patriot Sailing supports the veteran community navigate the hardships of transition to civilian life, rehabilitation after injury, and the complex life challenges associated with combat deployments.The organization accomplishes its mission by welcoming veterans back onto a winning team, provides camaraderie, a sense of mission accomplishment, and new dynamic experiences.
I have sailed and volunteered with U.S. Patriot Sailing in Annapolis since 2018. Earlier that year, I had returned from a deployment in the Middle East, moved from North Carolina up to the D.C. area, and wanted to get back out on the water sailing.
We all have a story to tell, and this is just the beginning of mine. I don’t believe my story is special, nor is it easy for me to open up in such a public forum. I am here to start my campaign for a major ocean race and share the impact of U.S. Patriot Sailing. My personal story is just one example of hundreds of veterans this organization has helped.
In 2018, I returned from a fairly routine deployment as an infantry battalion’s senior intelligence officer, which was part of a Marine Expeditionary Unit. This reinforced battalion consisted of about 1,200 Marines and Sailors spread across three large amphibious ships.
The deployment mostly consisted of traveling by ship, providing intelligence support to quick reaction force (QRF) missions in support of various operations spanning the Mediterranean and Red Sea, and conducting training exercises in places such as the deserts of Israel, Djibouti, and Jordan.
The final part of our deployment consisted of transiting the Persian Gulf where we prepared to send forces into Iraq, however that mission did not come to fruition for the ground element. From Bahrain, I departed the unit to fly back to the U.S. in order to attend a ten month long resident professional military education course in Quantico, Virginia, called Expeditionary Warfare School.
Going into 2019, I was going through an extremely difficult time in my personal life, including going through a divorce, and knew I needed something more in life. The culmination of two deployments, to include nine months in Afghanistan, multiple operations, and endless days training in the field-took an emotional toll. In 2014 I spent most of my time advising the Afghan military and police.
While I was not part of a unit conducting endless patrols through the desert like many picture Marine Corps deployments to be, our mission and threats were different. Our threats were insider attacks from those we were training and supporting, and indiscriminate rocket attacks.
Overall, this experience had the greatest lasting influence on me as a Marine. I felt fortunate for the opportunity to support an international mission, but during my time in Afghanistan the war was transitioning as the coalition forces were ordered out of Helmand Province.
I vividly remember watching the news of ISIS launching their campaign in Iraq, which made our efforts in Afghanistan feel like they were on the back burner yet again for America. Marines were still making the ultimate sacrifice. More can be said about that whole experience, but I will leave it there for now. I will reflect on my experiences more with you as I go through this campaign.
On a cold February day in 2019, I started volunteering with U.S. Patriot Sailing in Annapolis. The time I could commit started off small, but it was time for me to get out of the house and get back to doing what I love. Preparing to sail meant lots of boat work. Freezing fingers and toes were worth it to complete all the projects on the boats during those winter days. Most importantly, it was impactful seeing the team come together with a shared sense of purpose.
This organization provided me the opportunity to feel the thrill of deployment again, in the company of warriors, from all branches of the military. The experiences of those involved with U.S. Patriot Sailing could fill history books, with hard fought battles both on and off the battlefield. Representing all branches of the military, the participants from this team bring diverse backgrounds to the race course.
The team, camaraderie, and sense of commitment, are what helped me get through those initial dark winter days. They also continue to support me through my current transition from active duty to civilian life. This is an experience most of our teammates have already undergone and continue to face every day. I have seen the effects this organization has on teammates and it is inspiring. I hope to bring international awareness to U.S. Patriot Sailing so that it can grow and continue to help more veterans.
This 100% volunteer run national organization is completely funded by generous donations that support all aspects of running a team: boat dockage, haul out, maintenance, safety gear, and regatta entry fees. Every dollar donated to the team directly supports its operations.

Want to see a film with the family?
When my kids were still both at primary school I was miserable in my job. This was a shame as it really ought to have been a perfect match – environmental campaign job ideal for an eco bunny like me. And part time!What more could a parent want?
What child wouldn't adore their parent/s to do that?(A: Dylan, the older one!
Personally I'm pro zoos, especially those which go out of their way to look after the animals and replicate natural and wild behaviours, and mostly stock critically endangered animals on captive breeding programmes. In an ideal world we wouldn't need them – but we're not living in an ideal world. We Bought A Zoo doesn't tackle these questions – it's more abut personal adventure. But it offers such a feel good experience that you'll find it easy to use this film as the jumping off point for some far larger questions with family and friends, such as : who am I, what am I doing here, where am I going?

ENON, Ohio — A new bidder could be eying a deal for Speedway LLC as Marathon Petroleum Corp. (MPC) is reportedly considering offers for its retail network.
According to Bloomberg, TDR Capital is considering throwing its hat into the ring for the convenience stores. Citing people familiar with the matter, TDR bid.
TDR already owns EG Group, the U.K.-based retailer that made splash in the United States when it acquired The Kroger Co.'s c-store business in 2018. EG Group followed that move with several more acquisitions in the U.S., most notably its deal for Cumberland Farms in the fourth quarter of 2019.

PLEASE NOTE, THAT FOR THE USA AND CANADA THE RAINSKY IS NOT DESIGNED FOR OR INTENDED TO BE USED IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCE AS A PLUMBING DEVICE, SHOWER SYSTEM, OR FOR USE IN VIOLATION OF ANY APPLICABLE LAW. RAINSKY WILL NOT MEET ANY USA OR CANADIAN BUILDING CODES, PRODUCT APPROVALS OR APPLICABLE LAW FOR USE AS A PLUMBING DEVICE.
Interesting first comment about building codes. I wonder why? Is there some code against a ceiling-install shower head? I was considering doing just that in my house with one of those large round showerheads, but the plumbers worked too fast and installed the pipe in the wall before I had made up my mind.
I don’t think there is a code that prevents you from having stuff in your ceiling, but there is a code which says your showerhead cannot use more than 2.2 gallons of water a minute. If you’re looking for one that does, get a Sloan commercial shower head. Otherwise, you can mod cheap ones by taking out the restrictor, but they are not the same. I always take apart the showerheads in hotels and take the restrictors out of them.
…because I’m selfish and like to shit on this planet of ours.
“�
…because I have no regard for this planet and our precious water supply.
sounds like an exhibitionists playtoy to me – pretty spiffy!
Gee thanks, now why is my city on continuous water restrictions? Hmmm… there’s Phoenix and its golf courses… oh, and you.
meh, people will never conserve… If you really believe that people will actually worry about that before “bad stuff” happens then you’ve definitely got too much faith in people.
but as for the building restrictions, I’d like to know specifically which codes are being broken. because if it’s not serious then a do-it-yourself redesign might just allow it to scratch by.
Everyone that is bitching on Waz needs to buy a clue. Here is a free one for all of you. It’s not like it turns into a gas and escapes our atmosphere, believe it or not it comes right back to you. Maybe in a glass of water you drink from the faucet, or maybe in that cup of coffee you drink every morning.
Here’s a thought, if you are tired of water restrictions – move out of the desert.
I can report with pride that my toilet flushes my turds down the river at a healthy 6 gpf, I water my lawn in the afternoon, and I run my faucet the whole time I brush my teeth and shave – Wine Country living at its finest.
And I pay for the right to do it.
Ah because money should let you do what you want. I understand that arguement, oh wait no.
okay, same guy that posted the 10:06 one.
instead of turning comments into enviro-flaming… anyone find out what building codes were infringed? i checked their site, but it doesnt explicate.
If there is a law about showers it is somewhere in there, I don’t have time to look for it though. Maybe an enterprising soul can look for it.
Oh yeah, the amount of water on the planet is finite. It is constantly being recycled to and from the atmosphere and ground. In fact the water that is in your coffee may have at one time been dinosaur urine! There is no such thing as “wasting water”. But there is such a thing as wasting the resources that extract and process the water from the planet.
You people complain about the guy who takes the restirctor our of his showerhead, but drool over some wasted water in some pretty fountain in a living room? Pathetic!
We don’t have a problem with water shortage and probably never will. You can have my extra restrictors.
Now if we could just get people north of us to stop dumping chemicals into our water supply….
Thanks for the link. I’ll be diggin around in it in my free time (if any lol).
but ya, my stance on the whole ecosystem thing is this: we screw it up, we die off, and all resumes as normal… except with quite a few bodies that need to rot away.
but that’s just in my not-so-optimistic opinion.
Brown and dried up grass….but grass none the less!
ok, everyone needs to stop complaining, because what’s done is done, and can’t be changed, and personally, I think that despite the fact it doesn’t meet building codes, it’s still a totally awesome idea, owning something like that would be awesome.
this is exactly the sort of thing you’d find in donald trump’s bathroom, or maybe prince rainier of Monaco. So I want one. My ex always hassled me about wasting water in the shower so i’d take a picture of myself in it and send it to her. BTW i don’t believe in saving the planet for pathetic humans. The accelerated destruction of the environment will only hasten the evolution of the catpeolpe or maybe lizard people who will eventualt rule the earth, and look cooler than we do.
Want hi-flow showers? Go to ebay and search for power shower, you’ll find hi-flow 10GPM shower heads for $15 or $17 buy it now, and cheap shipping.
And no, I’m not the one who is selling them.
Hello, My name is Jennifer Mccune and i write in my highschool newspaper.I am interested in doing an article on this new shower and was wondering if i could use one of these pictures. Or what i would have to do to be able to use one of them. Please email me either way. Thank you!!!
Does anyone else feel that aseptic grey concept bathrooms are creepy?

Innisfail has received $799,579 from MOST and $65,372 from MSI.
Penhold was allotted $365,786 from MOST and $118,551 from MSI.
Counties, towns and villages are spending their MOST funds on PPE and enhanced cleaning and supplies to ensure that they are following public health requirements. For example, the public library and the Igloo in Bowden will continue to be safe places for the public to visit and enjoy. Some areas, such as Red Deer County, are using part of this funding to ensure that Alberta’s most vulnerable populations have what they need. Municipalities will also be able to continue paying their staff and other operational bills. Supporting municipalities is crucial to our province’s commitment to decreasing the tax burden on its hard-working men and women.
As Alberta navigates its way through this pandemic, I am constantly impressed with the perseverance, innovation, and resilience shown throughout our province. This, along withte more local job opportunities, will help Alberta to get back on track.

Chapter 109: "Leaf, Dance...!!" – Assessment by several examiners means Shikamaru has excellent leadership candidacy and is probably a better Chuunin possibility than Naruto. With Kankurou and Shino’s fight forfeited, Temari and Shikamaru’s over, only one fight remains. Even Lee and Gai manage to turn up, greeted with the shocking news that even Neji lost. Unrest grows in the stadium, with Gaara becoming uneasier. Suddenly, a whirl of leaves marks the entrance of two figures standing back to back, with Kakashi apologising for being late. His companion is asked his name by the referee – and the reply is “Uchiha Sasuke”. The entrance whips the crowd into a frenzy, but while the crowd express their cheers, Gaara has no actions that can express the anticipation he feels.
Chapter 113: "Reason for the Lateness...!!" – The Sand Siblings grow worried about Gaara’s choice of move. Sasuke cannot penetrate the defense, but Gaara is also unable to attack. Both prepare their next moves, with Kakashi telling Naruto to stop worrying and learn why they were late. Sasuke backs off and begins to wrap his hand in so much Chakra it becomes visible and audible. Gaara mutters grisly plans to himself and “Mother” inside the shell, as Sasuke rushes at him. Gai recognises the move as Kakashi’s only self-made move. Before it gained the nickname Raikiri (Lightning Blade), it was called: CHIDORI (Thousand Birds)!
Chapter 114: "Attack...!!" – Sasuke’s hand goes straight through the shell. Silence falls on the battlefield, prompting whispers among the crowd until Gaara’s horrified screams fill the air. Temari and Kankurou shriek as something inhuman coming from the shell attacks Sasuke. Gaara emerges and has been seriously wounded for the first time ever since birth! However, the suspicious ANBU member that knocked Kiba out!
Chapter 116: "The Crumbling Leaf...!!" – Ibiki tells his troops of Orochimaru’s past as Sarutobi’s pupil. He left after a new Hokage was chosen instead of him and inspired fear even in Ibiki. Things get worse as the invading Sand and Sound ninjas combine to launch an invasion. Orochimaru sheds a tear of happiness in anticipation of the approaching war and murder of Sarutobi. But instead of a simple kill, Orochimaru prepares for a duel with his former teacher. Kakashi orders Sakura to wake up Naruto and others in preparation for a mission. He notes that she has talent in Genjutsu and that he is about to send her along with Naruto and Shikamaru on their first A-Rank mission since the Wave Country.
Chapter 117: "The Assigned Mission...!!" – Kakashi briefs Sakura to go and catch up with Gaara and Sasuke. Kakashi adds one more “man” to the team and summons a nin-dog, Pakkun. To Sakura’s surprise, it can talk and has a sharp tongue. Gai smashes a sound ninja through a wall and the newly assembled team escape through it. Shino follows, uninvited... Back on the tower surrounded by the barrier, the Hokage and Sage, Sarutobi and Orochimaru, make their final preparations. As the four barrier ninjas close themselves off from the battle, the two begin. Orochimaru uses the “Edo Tensei” technique to block a shuriken array by summoning coffins, which Sarutobi recognizes! Two emerge but Sarutobi stops the third, but still, he is unnerved by exactly who rests inside the coffins...

Susan took the day off of work and since we were at a bit of loose end after lunch, we decided to tick off one of the "things we have still to do" boxes and take a trip to the top of Dumbarton Rock to see the castle.
We have been meaning to do this for months, however we just had not got round to it until now.
Susan had been up here many, many times since her Grandfather used to be the custodian of the Castle a long time ago and her best friend, Jacq got married to Rod in the Castle a few years ago.
However, it was my first time up the Rock.
A steep climb up a lot of stairs brought us out looking out over the River Clyde with views to the left up towards the Erskine Bridge and to the right down to Greenock and the Arrochar Alps in the distance.
A short walk along the path leads to a dead-end but gives you a look down the vertical cliff face known as Rhapsody which is generaly considered to be perhaps the world’s hardest traditional rock climb, with the grade of E11.
After a quick look around we walked back along the path and ascended more stairs to the top of the Rock past the French Prison and up towards the Duke of Argyll's Battery, where Susan took the opportunity to straddle a canon!
The view from the top is fantastic and it's a real shame that more people don't come for a visit. So do yourself a favour and check out the link below and come and see a little bit of history for yourself.
