Most of you know we have transitioned to a fees for services business model by offering on-line courses. In July we launched our third course, A Wild Soul Woman, which is our most successful on-line course to date. Mary, the instructor, wanted to give TreeSisters 70% of the net income. 152 people participated in this course and it raised $16,668 / £10,680. 2,584 trees were funded as a direct result of this course. Trees Between Mary's course and the network, we have just funded a further 4400 trees through Project GreenHands. This now takes us to 27,400 trees in total. The next season will see us going through a due diligence process with our next 4-5 beneficiary projects to prepare the major month long tree campaign that will launch the new web site. It feels incredible to start laying the ground for what is to come. What comes in the spring, will really be a our tree dream come true... We launch our first Indiegogo campaign on September 22nd with the goal of raising funds to create an interactive website that will connect treesisters around the globe and provide educational resources to our network. We are working with an award winning design team in the United Kingdom and have already had our first creative sessions with them. For those who want to support us in this campaign, we have put together a media pack that has Facebook posts, tweets, a blog, text for newsletters etc.and get the word out in the first crucial 48 hours. If you would be willing to spread the word for us in some way within your own network, please contact Sopcatalyse a groundswell of support, one woman at a time. So each and every one of us makes a difference!

Camden Council is urging residents to stay safe over the festive season, and take extra precautions if shopping. London is now in Tier 3, a ‘very high’ level of alert because cases of COVID are rising rapidly across the city. This means everyone is at-risk of catching it. To keep loved ones and ourselves safe, we must be extra careful to follow public health advice and in-store safety measures when we are shopping which will save lives and livelihoods. To support local high street businesses and help people shop safely, the Council has teamed up with MyVirtualNeighbourhood to launch ‘My Virtual Camden’. Follow the link and click on your neighbourhood to see a directory of local and independent businesses, and find a way to support your local high street either in person or by filtering to those who offer home delivery. We are also encouraging local high street businesses to sign up- it is free and only takes a few minutes. If you choose to shop in-store, please remember that local businesses have worked hard to put extra measures in place to keep us safe. Please be extra careful to follow all safety measures and public health advice if you are out shopping in the run up to Christmas. “The last few months have been tough for many businesses, but have also shown how important our high streets are, providing shops, services and outdoor spaces within walking distance of our homes. “With cases of COVID rising, and London now in Tier 3 we must be extra careful to follow safety measures and public health advice if we’re shopping in the run up to Christmas. “You can find independent businesses across Camden, whether it’s shopping for groceries, homeware, gifts and more. Between 23 and 27 December inclusively, the Government has said you can form a ‘Christmas bubble’ made up of a maximum of chosen your bubble, you cannot change who you are in a bubble with. We know that it has been a really difficult year so it might be temptie more of your family and friends. Please remember though that the more people you spend time with, and the more time you spend together, the higher your chance of catching the virus and passing it on. Please think very carefully about who you’ll form a Christmas bubble with and how you’ll spend time over that five-day period.

Here Come The Warm Jets (1974) Before And After Science (1977) Ambient 1: Music For Airports (1978) Ambient 2: The Plateaux of Mirror (1980) Apollo: Atmospheres And Soundtracks (1983) Will Brian Eno be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame? 48 comments so far (post your own) One of the more shocking snubs out there. U2, David Byrne and Talking Heads, David Bowie, Devo, recently Paul Simon, and even a Genesis album! If not as a performer, then definitely as a non-performer! Should absolutely be in for his production work alone, but since his musical output falls far outside the conventional boundaries of "rock", you probably won't see him in as an artist. Yeah, although he's been very prolific as a solo artist, and *extremely* influential on electronica... I would expect him to get in as a producer, probably. I think that Brian Eno has influenced the sound of rock and roll through his production skills. He made wonderful rock and roll with Roxy Music and even after through the 70's. His influence is mainly on electronic music, but he should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of fame because without him music would be years behind what it is now. Check out the Yeah Yeah Yeah's latest album, their songs are structured and some are built like classic Eno songs. Producer...ue's in as a producer. Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, 04.28.07 @ 21:40pm Posted by Kit on Thursday, 05.24.07 @ 20:16pm Posted by Anonymous on Thursday, 06.7.07 @ 20:24pm Posted by Kit on Thursday, 06.7.07 @ 23:50pm Brian Eno was a member of Roxy Music between 1971-73. He is a pioneer of modern Ambient Music. A musical genre that incorporates a number of different styles. Jazz, electronic, new age, classical, traditional, world and noise. Posted by Joe-Skee on Saturday, 06.30.07 @ 10:15am "Here Comes The Warm Jets" in 1974 was Eno's solo debut. He's recorded quite a few albums that are essential listening. Avant-garde yet accessible. Eno has a gift for mastery pop song structure. Posted by Joe-Skee on Saturday, 06.30.07 @ 12:24pm "He is a pioneer of modern Ambient Music" A euphymism- don't you mean elevator music? Posted by Anonymous on Saturday, 10.20.07 @ 08:56am no, he doesn't. and Eno is much more deserving than Rush. Posted by liam on Saturday, 10.20.07 @ 09:00am Eno is way more deserving than Rush - how da ya know? - did you use your who is more deserving meter? Posted by Anonymous on Wednesday, 10.24.07 @ 17:09pm look, i know you may find it hard to accept the fact that RuSH ARE NOT THE MOST DESERVING SNUB, but we'll get you there anon. Posted by liam on Thursday, 10.25.07 @ 13:13pm Did you use the snubometer? It is all just personal opinion - it is not some alogorithm Posted by Anonymous on Thursday, 10.25.07 @ 16:55pm it is NOT all personal opinion, just your's. Eno's infleunce is far greater than that of Rush, and I don't mind how many times that I have to repeat that, or how many times you disagree. Posted by liam on Friday, 10.26.07 @ 06:12am It is not opinion? That is weird. So, how is it factual? So, saying a band is more influential is very difficult to measure or essentially impossible. Like Shawn once pointed out - can you measure influence on unknown bar bands across the world? Rush's influence is ubiquitous. I would agree that I really cannot say for sure though that is more than Eno. The point is it is just personal opinion with a consensus of opinions as being most important. But, you are going to tell me that the influence is just like, "Hey, it is 39 degrees Fahrenheit outside." - NOT Posted by Anonymous on Friday, 10.26.07 @ 17:04pm According to Plato: knowledge is a subset of that which is both true and believed. Truth = reality that exists independent of ones beliefs. Beliefs = ones convictions about the world or some idea or notion. May or may not be true. Knowledge = occurs only when, according to Plato, when one's "beliefs" are also in accord with "truth." My only point is is that you may believe that Eno is more influential, but the "truth" of this belief is not substantiated, and likely cannot be justified, even if it may be true. It may be measurable, but not sure how considering just asking a select group of writers would fall well short of measuring a global "truth." To really meausure it, one would need to travel the world (i.e. like Japan where Rush is pretty influential) to decipher this difficult question. Therefore, you have not achieved knowledge, according to Plato... Posted by Anonymous on Friday, 10.26.07 @ 17:44pm And to go one step further on PLato's view's, people, society and everything must come to a GENERAL CONSENSUS in order to get anywhere. Posted by liam on Saturday, 10.27.07 @ 09:52am Someone with the insight and musical wisdom please help me: I have now listned to "Taking Tiger Mountain.." 3 times and an still not getting much from it, losing interest. What am I failing to connect with? Or is one of Eno's other albums a more accesible choice? Is Eno's brilliance mostly in his production, or is there an angle I can listen with that I haven't tried yet? His stuff is putting me to sleep. Posted by tostada ted on Monday, 12.10.07 @ 14:10pm From what I know, and what I've heard of him, production has always been his forte. I doubt I would have ever 'gotten' him if I hadn't already been a fan of Bowie and 90s rave/electronica, and I only got "Another Green World" a few years back, and I can't say that it's the first thing I whack in the car for long journeys. Posted by liam on Monday, 12.10.07 @ 14:18pm Shawn, maybe try some of his work with Roxy Music. Probably try For Your Pleasure first, since it''s their most extravagant. Also check out his stuff from Bowie's Berlin Trilogy. Low would be the best place to start in that. His solo stuff can be very hard to get into. Posted by Liam on Monday, 05.5.08 @ 09:53am 2009 could be his year. He's received new exposure thanks to David Byrne doing another collaboration album with him along with the ensuing tour where Byrne only plays songs from his previous Eno-dabblings. Couple this with a new U2 album next year and Eno's exposure level is at his highest in quite some time. Posted by Casper on Saturday, 11.22.08 @ 01:50am I like Brian Eno's chances for this year in the Non-Performer category (excuse me, the Ahmet Ertegun Award category) even more than I like Bernie Taupin's, especially because it'd give them another reason to let Bono make a speech. And let's face it, if Brian Eno's inducted as a N-P, Bono will be the presenter. List of Non-Performers whom I'd like to see: Bob Crewe (and if the success of the musical "Jersey Boys" holds any sway, especially if Paul Shaffer's on the N-P electing committee this year, Crewe has a serious chance, too) Jeff Barry & Ellie Greenwich Barry Mann & Cynthia Weil Mort Schuman (they've already inducted his often-partner in songwriting, Doc Pomus) And more... those are just the ones that I can think of that I want most to see get in soon. Posted by Philip on Saturday, 11.22.08 @ 02:10am How could Eno not be in? He's unquestionably among the greatest artists of the 1970s. His work is largely responsible for ambient and he helped transformed punk, post punk, and all manner of electronic and experimental musics. His work as a producer is equally noted. Brian Eno being snubbed is as confounding as The Stooges and Kraftwerk's absence in the hall. Posted by Jonas on Thursday, 12.18.08 @ 00:44am Eno definitely deserves to be entered as a performer. You all seem to be forgetting that his first 3-4 solo albums were mostly experimental rock/ pop. Not to mention his HUGE influence on the sound and structure of rock and pop from the 70s onward. To anyone who hasn't heard much Eno before and would like to know why he deserves to be in the Hall, listen to "Another Green World". Posted by yonnie on Tuesday, 03.23.10 @ 13:06pm a) Founding member of the hyper-influential and immortal Roxy Music. b) Father of ambient music. c) Producer of iconic albums by Bowie, U2, Talking Heads, James, Paul Simon, and even Coldplay, etc. etc. d) Add up his credits as a Roxy member, solo performer, and producer, and voila --- the most representative person on planet earth in the Rolling Stone top 500 albumns of all time. Posted by JOB on Sunday, 05.2.10 @ 22:29pm YES. Brian Eno is the person that needs to be in there the most of anyone snubbed so far. Is there even a reason on earth why NOT to induct Brian Eno? I don't think so. One of the most influential people in music. Posted by Calzone on Wednesday, 08.18.10 @ 19:09pm Actually, his solo recording career alone merits induction -- it's a triple threat of influence, innovation AND quality. Compounded with his career as a producer, it makes him a no brainer. But still we wait... Posted by Chalkie on Sunday, 11.28.10 @ 20:47pm His first couple albums aren't that hard to listen to actually, despite what people say... basically just trippy, electric doo-wop. It evolves though. Posted by Chalkie on Sunday, 11.28.10 @ 20:51pm He'll get in with Roxy Music. Posted by Roy on Sunday, 11.28.10 @ 21:33pm Yeah, and John, Paul and George all got elected solo. His career has been much stronger in all aspects than that of Paul and George. Furthermore, he's been more innovative than John solo, and probably more influential. I wouldn't say better though. ..but yeah... will and deserves to be are two different things. Posted by Chalkie on Sunday, 11.28.10 @ 21:55pm All aspects that matter, that is... obviously not sales (see McCartney). Posted by Chalkie on Sunday, 11.28.10 @ 21:57pm It is a joke that Eno has been eligible for over a decade now and hasn't even been previously considered, not even once! Posted by Tahvo Parvianen on Tuesday, 03.29.11 @ 17:07pm One of the most mind boggling omissions...How is he not in? Posted by Egglay on Thursday, 03.31.11 @ 17:43pm In my opinion, the fact that he wrote "Babys on Fire" should put Brian Eno in the hall of fame. that's how good it is. That song is genius. The guitar is absolutely vicious. Raw, powerful, "Babys on fire" is like no other song I've heard. Posted by Matt on Sunday, 02.19.12 @ 23:49pm I think Brian Eno has a far stronger case for induction as a non-performer, considering his track record as a producer for other acts. I mean, look at some of the acts he produced albums for: Talking Heads, U2, Devo, Ultravox, and Coldplay. Posted by Zach on Monday, 06.25.12 @ 21:50pm Brian Eno and Mike Oldfield have the same birthday, May 15. Eno was born in 1948 while Oldfield was born in 1953. Posted by Aaron O'Donnell on Tuesday, 06.26.12 @ 04:33am No. Not far stronger. Not even stronger. Maybe from a mainstream point of view. Posted by Chalkie on Wednesday, 11.21.12 @ 16:41pm Actually, Brian Eno's strongest legacy is neither his production work or his solo career. It's his tenure in Roxy Music that will be remembered the best, and rightfully so. Ambient music has its place, but its impact is not even close to Roxy Music's, artistically, critically, or commercially. Also, I doubt the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is in a rush to start recognizing ambient music. It's one of those genres that mostly exists within its own universe, rarely crossing over with other genres of music. With all that said, I still maintain that Brian Eno has a much meatier case for induction as a producer. The list of critically acclaimed albums he's produced or had some involvement with is like an all-star baseball team: David Bowie's Berlin trilogy, Ultravox!'s self-titled debut, The Joshua Tree, Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo!, Remain in Light, Fear of Music, Achtung Baby, etc. I'm not a fan of all these albums (U2 particularly), but this is a litany of some of the most important albums released in the last 35 years. My musical point of view is hardly mainstream. I avoid current mainstream music (Current music for me is anything from the 1990s onward) like the flu. I'm too busy educating myself on the past (1980s and before) to really pay attention to current music, mainstream or underground. There are a few contemporary acts that interest me (The Scissor Sisters, J.D. McPherson), but I would much rather discover old doo wop or glam rock artists than what's being released now. Posted by Zach on Sunday, 12.2.12 @ 19:14pm "Actually, Brian Eno's strongest legacy is neither his production work or his solo career. It's his tenure in Roxy Music that will be remembered the best, and rightfully so." Hardly. He was with Roxy for two albums and only one of their greats (For Your Pleasure). "Ambient music has its place, but its impact is not even close to Roxy Music's, artistically, critically, or commercially." Actually, four of the five solo albums Eno released BEFORE Ambient 1 are legitimate classics in music that's essentially non-ambient. (Broadly speaking, they're experimental/alternative). Posted by Chalkie on Friday, 12.7.12 @ 18:54pm Seems like a perfect and overdue fit for the Hall's ambiguous Musical Excellence category. Seems to me that that would be a tailor made catch-all for both his recording artist and producer careers, both of which deserve acknowledgement. Posted by DarinRG on Tuesday, 11.12.13 @ 01:23am Posted by DarinRG on Tuesday, 11.12.13 @ 01:24am I agree with you DarinRG. He is a good fit for the "Award for Musical Excellence" since he is both a performer and non-performer and a good fit for artists the same as Eno. Posted by John R.C. on Tuesday, 11.12.13 @ 02:02am I cannot believe Eno is not in. Changed the course of rock music. Posted by Brett Roberts on Tuesday, 05.5.15 @ 07:30am

He was always on time and very patient at times that we were late and needed gas, etc. We so many homes, and the whole time he was professional and was always working in the best of our interest, and answered all our questions and concerns. I don't know anyone else who can assist in the best way possible other than Ty Cacesfamily. It was truly a remarkable experience from beginning to closing. Ty Caces is an outstanding real estate agent, he made the whole experience hassle free and enjoyable." It was a pleasure working with Dan and his team!We'sn't the best, Dan made it a whole lot easier! Dan Edwards is who found us our dream home and we are so pleased with his service. What I like about having worked with Dan is that he has a whole team of people working with him so that my husband and I got the best value (for the same price!). Dan worked hard for us, was AWESOME at listening, didn't waste our time and was super on top of making sure we won our bid for a great deal. He helped us navigate the process, connected us to a host of other great service providers, moved fast and was even available by text at all hours!Going above and beyond this man was. Another thing you should know is that he is very trustworthy. With a home purchase, it's a big one and you'll want someone who is very honorable, and all that I've seen from Dan. I am totally recommending Dan to all my friends and family and had to post here too. You need to work with him- I promise you he is the best. You will be just as happy as we are in our new home! Dan is at the top of his field and I highly recommended him. He was our agent for both buying and selling our house and always performed above and beyond for us. He's very knowledgeable of the greater Eastside and is great to work with. He also happens to be very good – our house sold after only 2 days on the market! Dan is awesome!He sold our place at list price in just about 2 weeks. We had an offer 3 days after he listed the property. That fell through but he got us another offer not long after. I had to leave the country during the process and he took care of the paperwork and everything like a rockstar that he is. As soon as I landed at Sea-Tac, I got a call from him telling me to pack up and get ready to sign the closing docs. In short, if you need an agent, give him a call! Can't say enough good things about Dan and his team, they made the purchase of our first home a complete success, handled the few hiccups with the complicated HUD transaction, and we closed on time. Everyone was kind, courteous, extremely responsive, and all around great people. this team to everyone we know! I strongly recommend Dan and his team for those looking for a g!

Default do when starting your project is installing a third party code highlighter plugin. This is a free plugin, but don’t hesitate do drop a donation to the author and give it a good vote if you find it useful. Installing and Setting up HTML Editor Syntax Highlighter The installation of this code highlighting plugin is really simple. Search the WP plugins repository from within your WordPress dashboard, or download it and upload into your theme’s Plugins folder. The best thing about setting up this code highlighting plugin is that there is no setting up. It works right out of the box! HTML Editor Syntax Highlighter doesn’t have a dedicated settings page and we find it great. Other code editors have extensive and confusing settings which if not configured properly can lead to misbehavior of the editor. This plugin is deprived of that part, so you can start writing code right away. A couple of basic settings are accessible by clicking a gear button in the top right corner of the editor window. We consider this as a pretty good solution. Working with HTML Editor Syntax Highlighter for WordPress HTML Editor Syntax Highlighter uses CodeMirror.js for code higlighting and it integrates seamlessly into WordPress. It replaces the default theme/plugins editor and adds syntax highlighting fuctionality to the Code View of the pages / posts editor. This code editor comes with a couple of handy keyboard shortcuts. We suggest you get familiar with them from the very start. Saving documents, searching and replacing strings of code, jumping to line numbers and turning full screen on and off are just some of them. Downsides of this code highlighter plugin in Gutenberg - works great with Gutenberg posts and pages editor - auto restoration of cursor position after saving - useful keyboard shortcuts - no automatic HTML/CSS code completion and validation

"We are looking very much beyond where we are at the moment and understand where the needs might be within the next ten years onwards and trying to answer some of these particular challenges that are out there, and I think some of them have been explained already to a certain degree within the context of the IAV conference." "There's a lot of volume available for VLS integration in the mission module, and the potential ability to build and qualify that module without having to tie up a lot of the fleet that the land forces are trying to bring into service at the same time. You've got this almost parallel capability development opportunity." "That's likely to mean that these systems may not be directly at the point of need, and therefore need to be able to project their firepower across that battlespace. They might need to do that very quickly and with large volume to prevent our dispersed forces from being overwhelmed. We very much expect to see that as big force multiplier, particularly for medium-weight formations like Strike brigades."

FORMER deputy headteacher Sion Jenkins was at the Old Bailey yesterday to face his third trial accused of murdering his foster daughter. The 48-year-old from Aberystwyth arrived hand-in-hand with his wife Christina. But Jenkins was freed on bail last year after the Appeal Court ruled he should be tried again when the defence challenged scientific evidence. The second trial started in April this year but the jury was discharged in July after failing to reach a verdict at the Old Bailey.

Devi means Goddess. Devi is the feminine, expanding force that creates the universe, manifesting as mother nature (Prakriti), wisdom (Saraswati), force (Kali-Durga), beauty and wealth (Lakshmi), and 'She of the Mountains', Parvati. This asana is often also called victory pose. Improves circulation to the abdominal organs and legssmall muscles in the ankles and knees. Teaches us the value of a balance between determination and surrender. Come into wide narrow stance. Your feet are one leg distance apart. Turn your knees and feet out to a 45° angle. The upper arms are parallel to the floor at shoulder height and the forearms are at right angles, parallel to each other. Activate your Mulabandha by drawing the pelvic floor up. Activate your Uddiyanabandha by drawing the lower abdomen back toward the spine. As you exhale, bend your knees, making sure that your knees are at the same angle as your feet. If they go over the tops of your feet, take a wider step. Feel a natural curve in the lower back and a natural curve in the back of the neck. Feel all four corners of each foot press evenly into the earth, lifting the toes slightly so you can find even greater support for your feet and legs. Make sure you are in neutral pelvis with the tailbone neither tucking under nor lifting up. Allow your seat to stick out behind you so you can have a nice natural curve in the lower back and the back of the neck. It is also natural for your shoulders to be in front of your tailbone. Avoid trying to keep your backup straight as if it is against a wall. This results in a flattening of the natural curves and tension in the spine and hip joints. Engage the muscles between the shoulder blades, but avoid squeezing them together too tightly. Keep your chin parallel to the earth and your eyes gazing softly forward. For more of a challenge: bring the arms overhead. Place your hands on your hips. Exhale and come to standing.

Although I agree with your noble sentiments expressed above, I am also bothered by a great sense of contradiction between our natural sense of compassion for animals and our meat-eating lifestyle.

Theis used in numerous product applications for transferring large amounts of data between system components. LCDs and Thin-Film Transistor (TFT) panels, for example, employ LVDS interfaces to carry display data. Since maintaining synchronization of the LVDS clock and data paths is essential for good picture quality in these displays, traditional spread spectrum electromagnetic interference (EMI) reduction methods, which have the potential for misalignment of the paths, must be avoided. As a result, product engineers and manufacturers customarily try to satisfy industry and/or government EMI regulations using traditional passive methods such as ferrite beads, conductive foam and resistors. In addition to increasing production time and raising costs, these methods can be unreliable and are often unsuccessful at lowering EMI to sufficient levels.

This is the second post in a series about the many factors that pushed me to go vegetarian and limit my animal product consumption. To read the first post production, click here. Again, what I say here is what works for me and why I do what I do. I hope not to judge but to encourage discussion and critical thinking of our food sources and diet. My eating habits change daily and depending upon the news I hear that day-- I believe we should all strive to be aware of where our food comes and how it gets to us. As a microbiologist, I'm hyper-sensitive to issues of infectious disease and strongly believe that it's the government's role to regulate and ensure food safety. With that in mind, today I want to discuss the Microbiology and Infectious Disease aspect of Factory Farmed Meat. (hyperlinked text are sources) It's probably no secret by now that factory farming practices are dirty and incredibly wasteful. Still, the Food and Drug Administrationare charged with the role to oversee and protect the production and marketing of any and all ingestible items in the United States. Sadly, the decisions made by these agencies and the issues that slide under the radar post severe risks to our health. Because of tightly-packed factory farms, diseases can and do run rampant. Consider this: in a henhouse packed with 3,000 birds that can barely move, excrement, blood and other waste covers the floor. This gives bacteria such as Salmonella and Campylobacter a free pass to jump between healthy chicken hosts. This same phenomenon can be found in pig and cattle farms as well. Indeed, this is how the 2009 H1N1 Swine Flu outbreak began. Frighteningly, most of this disease can be carried in the manure and finds its way to the human food supply due to poor sanitation conditions in the slaughter houses, with USDA investigators being actively discouraged to stop production even if they suspect of feces contamination. According to the CDC, the top foodborne illness pathogens are the chicken-dwellers Campylobacter and Salmonella, and the beef-dweller E. coli O157:H7. These bacteria are all intestinal pathogens of these animals, that is, the disease can be spread from contaminated feces coming into contact with the oral cavity of humans or other animals. A statistic from 1999 estimatesand over 5,000 deaths are related to foodborne illness every year. In reality, this figure is much higher 12 years later in 2011 and often these illnesses go unreported. Campylobacter is a chicken gut pathogen that causes campylobacteriosis in humans, which manifests as severe diarrhea and fever. The FDA acknowledges that 20-100% of commercial chickens harbor this bacteria! Gross. Salmonella is another chicken pathogen that causes salmonellosis, an infection that causes nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. It's estimated that there are 2-4 million cases per year in the US of salmonellosis. E. coli O157:H7 is a cattle pathogen that causes severe diarrheal disease in humans, and can lead to the development of the kidney disease Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome. It's commonly found in contaminated ground beef and has lead to significant recalls just in the past year. Additionally, it's HUS from contaminated beef that killed 2 year-old Kevin Kowalcyk and lead to the push of food safety legislation known as Kevin's Law. With all of this foodborne illness around, farmers and industrialists look for a cheap to their products. Rather than improve animal housing and sanitation conditions, the industry has turned to drugs. Casual use of powerful antibiotics has long been looked down upon in science and medicine. Because of the nature of bacterial infections and antibiotics, their limited use is suggested as to not encourage the rise of drug resistant bacteria. This and other reasons are why strict regulation requires patients with infections to obtain prescriptions from a licensed physician. It's surprising then to hear that the FDA estimates that over 28.7 million pounds of antibiotics were fed to livestock animals in 2009. To a microbiologist, this is absolutely frightening. By constantly challenging bacteria with antibiotics, the risk for mutations and adaptations within these bacteria greatly increases. Once humans become infected, our standard frontline treatments will be ineffective. This is an incredibly serious issue. Unfortunately, there is evidence that resistance already occurrin the rise It's estimated that drug resistant infections have lead to over 65,000 US deaths per year. Scary stuff. Prevent Bugs and Drugs in your Food: With all of this data, it's pretty clear that poor sanitation and the overuse of antibiotics is leading to very serious disease outbreaks in the United States. As a microbiologist, I stand in horror at the possibilities of drug resistant bacteria and the lack of viable drug options. For these reasons, I've made the decision to stop eating meat and avoid the risk all together. If you do choose to eat mea Make sure you're preparing your meat according to standard safety guidelines. This includes washing, cooking and saving uncooked meat. Find guidelines here. Pay attention to food recalls and illness outbreaks. You can do this online or follow the FDA on Twitter. Purchase organic or grass-fed meat. It's not a guarantee these animals are pathogen-free, but more likely that their living conditions are a little better and a little safer. What do you think about foodborne illness and antibiotic use? Posted by Kaitlin (runforsushi) at 11:45 AM Labels: food, vegseries

Victorian Labor flags changes to streamline development process for large-scale solar farms, while South Australia flags updated rules for both big wind and solar. Sophie Vorrath Posted on 29 July 2019 0 Comments Two of Australia’s busiest renewable energy markets, South Australia and Victoria, are tightening guidelines around project development, in a bid to smooth the way for the massive pipeline of solar and wind being built to replace fossil fuels. In Victoria, the state Labor government last week released the final draft of development guidelines for large-scale solar farms it says will help in consideration of land-use and ecosystems. The draft also includes guidelines for best practice on social licence, to help developers to engage effectively with communities and “ens” It’s a similar move to that which the state made to address wind farm development, following has been described as an “unravelling of community support” that started in around 2009, and almost brought the industry undone. As forecast, similar issues have started to crop up with big solar developments, with an increase in pubic objections to Victorian solar farms and even grid-scale battery projects, in the rush to meet the local VRET. Like the wind farm changes, the new solar guidelines would also aim to reduce pressure on local Councils – as well as the potential for protracted and divisive approvals processes – by making the state’s minister for planningar applications. In a statement last week, state energy minister Lily D’Ambrosio, would be, if that amendment was pass” D’Ambrosio said. “T” In South Australia, the Liberal government’sr proposing new rules for both solar and wind farm development. The paper comes as the government boasts of a 10GW of large-scale wind and solar development pipeline, propelling the state towards its anticipated milestone of “net” 100 per cent renewables by 2030. Like Victoria, South Australia is playing catch-up on guidelines for solar farms, with renewables growth in the state initially focused more on wind energy development. But solar is now coming into its own, with last week’s approval of a 176MW solar and battery storage project near Murray Bridge in South Australia marking the fifth such project to get the go-ahead in the state in a matter of weeks. “The introduction of the new state-wide Planning and Design Code in July 2020 provides an opportunity to update our policies toState Planning Commission member Allan Holmes in a statement. “It is also an opportunity to provide improved guidance for industry regarding thets to address community and environmental concerns.” Public consultation on the draft Code will start in October, with the Discussion Pape, available to view here.re

We debut eps 2 and 3 at ClexaCon in Vegas in April (the 6th at 10 AM in the Alice Walker Film Festival room). If you're there, stop by and watch some nerdy queer world savin'. Deep in pre-pro for my web series Total Party Kill - we shoot the first four episodes in January and then the crowdfunding campaign will begin! We've partnered with the YouTube channel Saving Throw Show and will be able to use YouTubeSpace LA's studio space and equipment, but we'll still need a budget to pay our amazing cast and crew. So look for our first four episodes in the spring and the crowdfunding campaign that will help us fund the rest of the season! My team and I are hard at work on a web series I wrote that will hopefully go into pre-pro in the new year. It's titled TOTAL PARTY KILL and it's about an eclectic group of gamers that finds itself in a fight for humanity's very soul when they inadvertently catch the first night of the apocalypse on their gaming livestream. Stay tuned for more updates, because they're coming fast! It's been a bit of a crazy year here in my little world. I've been working full-time in television (not writing...yet) while continuing to write - some new projects have been posted in the 'scripts' section. I'm actively searching for an agent, editor, and publishing house for my YA manuscript HARPER FALLS while also working on a new dramedy television pilot with one of my writing partners. Stay stellar, friends. From now through November 1st, my YA fantasy manuscript HARPER FALLS is on Inkshares for the Geek & Sundry competition. The first chapter is up to read, and links to preorder to book are there, too. The top three authors with the top three amount of preorders will be published. If you can't preorder but wouldn't mind throwing me a facebook shout-out, I'd appreciate it! Thanks!! https://www.inkshares.com/books/harper-falls On hiatus from playing Halfling Embyr Duskgrove, the only known Gunslinger in Dark Sun, on Dungeon World through Saving Throw Show. Season one is finished. Season 2 streams live every Saturday from 12:30-4 PM PST. Watch live or catch up later (look for "Dark Sun w/ Dungeon World"):

Simply decompress the downloaded *.zip file in a preferred location on your file system. After decompressing with a standard zip-tool (like WinZip, Win Rar) the typical file-structure of an Eclipse based application will be created. To start the application simply double click on the Bio7.exe (Windows) . In Bio7 1.7 please install the R package rgdal which is needed for some import and export scripts and knitr to use the report features with R. For further information please read the Bio7 documentation on the Bio7 website. Info about system requirements It is recommended that your computer should have at least 2048 mb ram and a 1 ghz processor. A 3d Graphics Card which is OpenGL enabled (only necessary for the “Spatial” view and the embedded “WorldWind” view. To use the LibreOffice feature of Bio7 an installation of OpenOffice (LibreOffice) >= 2.0 is required. The path to LibreOffice can be adjusted in the Bio7 preferences to the default path. This entry was posted in Bio7, R on August 8, 2013 by admin. In the next Bio7 release it will be possible to create custom GUI’s with the JavaFX Builder or with the new JavaFX API. I already integrated an API to load and compile a *.fxml file into a custom view of Bio7. GUI interfaces can easily be created with the new available JavaFX Scene Builder from Oracle and saved  in a project of the Bio7 workspace. Objects and actions are accessible by means of Dependency Injection using the @FXML annotation. Furthermore in the next release several custom views can be created side by side (i removed the tab implementation) e.g. to combine several custom GUI’s and panels. In the screenshot below an example shows the created GUI of the Scene Builder (screenshot above)  side by side with three other custom views (processing API examples). This entry was posted in Bio7, Ecological Modelling on September 20, 2012 by admin. Bio7 1.6 for Windows and Linux released! Finally i released a new version of Bio7 with many improvements and new features. Updated tutorials are available, too. The new Bio7 1.6 release can be downloaded here. Please also download the examples *.zip file from the sourceforge website which contains new examples for Bio7 1.6 (e.g. an example to cluster an image folder with ImageJ and R). – Bio7 1.6 is now based on Eclipse 3.8.0. – The option “Always run in background”  is now selected by default. – Integrated new Bio7 grid file format to import or export formatted spreadsheet data (for images and fonts, etc.). – Updated the integrated Java Libraries. – Added the application API from “Processing”  (a few programming examples are available in the examples for Bio7 1.6). – The main “Processing” panel can be embedded in the “Custom” view of Bio7 for integration (see screenshot below)). – Updated WorldWind to the latest version. – Integrated more syntax coloring options for the editors of Bio7. – Now fonts for selected syntax types can be adjusted in the Bio7 editors, too. – Added drag and drop text support for the different Bio7 editors. – Double-Click in brackets selects the code in the brackets of the editors. – Added some default Update sites for Bio7 (e.g. EGit). – Updated links in the Bio7 browser. – Updated the Bio7 API description! – Refactored several plugins. – Updated and improved many Bio7 API methods. – Created new Bio7 API methods for the Bio7 grid. – Added update support for the Bio7 plugins with the integrated p2 Update Manager (see screenshot below). – Reorganized the file wizard of Bio7 (see screenshot below). – Added Java 7 support for the Java compiler and editor. – Bio7 now uses the standard Java compiler to compile Java source (with the support of the Janino API). – Improved the error messages for a Java compilation (if errors occur). – Compilation errors are now marked within the Java editor (selectable – see screenshot and video tutorial below). – In the Outline view selected members of a Java class are now shown (created from the “Abstact Syntax Tree” (AST)). – Now a complete Java classes can be compiled with the Java compiler dynamically (context menu Navigator view). If a main method is available it will be invoked automatically after compilation (see screenshot below). – If a class extends the “Model” class it will be compiled like the default Java classbody (ecomain method can be invoked!). – New option to switch between classbody AST parsing and class AST parsing (for the display of the Outline view) . – New Wizards are available for Java files and ImageJ files, etc. – New rearranged Wizard Pages are available for an improved overview. – Update to R 2.15.1. – Update to Rserve 0.6.8. – Added text drag and drop support for the R editor. – Added more source formatting options for the editor. – Added a display for the loaded packages (use the “Update” method in the R-Shell view to see the current loaded packages). – Added a simple Sweave support for Bio7 (installation of e.g. MikeTex necessary!  The actions for Sweave are available in the context menu of the  Navigator view if a Sweave or Latex file is selected!) – Added a new image transfer option to transfer RGB image values to R in one shot (as raw vectors or as a  R, G, B integer matrix – see screenshot below). – Added a new transfer mode to transfer selected pixels (all pixels within an area selection). If the ROI Manager in ImageJ is active all ROI image data (selected pixels)  for all opened images (every roi is applied to all opened images regardless in which image the ROI was created!) is transferred to R (also recognizes now the transfer type adjustments!). For e.g. supervised classification purposes a signature is added to each selection matrix, too. If the ROI manager is not active the standard transfer method is invoked (see screenshots below – for an explanation please follow the video tutorial link below the images). – Added a new API to transfer images to R with ImageJ in a windowless mode for the purpose of batch computing of images (see examples). – Added a new API to transfer R image vector data as an ImageJ float image in place e.g. for gridded simulations in R (and in silent mode without printing evaluation messages). – Updated the integrated ImageJ application to the latest ImageJ version 1.47a. – ImageJ Plugins can now be compiled dynamically with the integrated dynamic Java compiler. The action is available in the context menu of the Navigator view if a Java file is selected. The action compiles the active Java file in  the editor. For this action it is not necessary anymore to put the class file in the plugins directory of ImageJ. Classfiles and *.jar archives can be created with available actions in the Navigator view, too. – Added speed adjustments for the 3d view in z-direction. – Added a “Reset View” button. – Added a few examples for the new image API methods. – Added a Swarm example (for the OpenGL 3d view). – Added Java Processing examples. It is recommended that your computer should have at least 1024 mb ram and a 1 ghz processor. A 3d Graphics Card which is OpenGL enabled (only necessary for the “Spatial” view and the embedded “WorldWind” view. To use the OpenOffice (LibreOffice) feature of Bio7 an installation of OpenOffice (LibreOffice) >= 2.0 is required. The path to OpenOffice will be automatically fetched by Bio7 from the registry (Windows) or can be adjusted in the Bio7 preferences (Windows, Linux, MacOSX) to the default path. For the MacOSX version a JRE >=1.6.0 has to be installed if not available on the OS by default (For Windows and Linux a JRE is bundled in the Bio7 installation package). Installation Windows, MacOSX and Linux: The installation of Bio7 is similar to the installation of the Eclipse environment. Simply decompress the downloaded *.zip file in a preferred location on your file system. After decompressing with a standard zip-tool (like WinZip, Win Rar) the typical file-structure of an Eclipse based application will be created. To start the application simply double click on the Bio7.exe (Windows) or Bio7 (Linux, MacOSX) file. Because Windows Vista, Windows 7, etc. is very sensitive to user rights etc. the package installation was reorganized in Bio7 1.4 for installable add-on packages inside of Bio7. The default add-on package location in a Bio7 release is now: At this location inside of Bio7 the packages will be installed by default (if not changed!). Windows only (if needed)!: To write the R package location path to the Windows registry please start Bio7 with the enabled option “Install path at startup” to set the registry path to the bundled R location. By default this option is disabled not to harm any default user installation of R. In Bio7 x.x please install the R package rgdal which is needed for some spatial import and export scripts. Please note that the import scripts for spatial data can have problems with special text encoded filenames. If an rgdal import script produces an error the Rserver will probably die and you have to restart Rserve. To use R from Bio7 please install R with a package manager. Also the installation of the Rserve library is required. This can be easily done inside R by typing: in the R console. After the installation of R the path to the R (if not using the default path) application has to be adjusted inside of Bio7 (“Preferences->Preferences Bio7”). In addition the path to the (add-on) packages install location has to be adjusted, too (“Preferences->Preferences Bio7->RServe Preferences”). Please also set the user rights for the folder. This is sometimes necessary if you would like to install packages with the Bio7 interface and you don’t have the user rights. (Start Rserve with a shell for an analysis if problems occur!  ->  R->Preferences->Rserve preferences->Start with shell) Since Bio7 1.4 default paths are set which are usually correct for a Linux distribution. If Rserve is running you can then easily install the package rgdal with the Bio7 interface which is needed for the import/export scripts (you can also install it beforehand with R!). Linux (only 32bit): Scanner with Sane: If the Sane interface is not running by default please set a symbolic link (the shared library has to be found!): ln -s /usr/lib/libsane.so.1 /usr/lib/libsane.so To use R from Bio7 please install the latest R. After the installation of R start R and install the Rserve package: The default installation paths of Bio7 are pointing to a standard installation of R but can be adjusted in the preferences of Bio7 (“Preferences->Preferences Bio7”). In addition the path to the (add-on) packages install location can be adjusted, too if necessary (“Preferences->Preferences Bio7->RServe Preferences”). If Rserve is running you can then easily install the package rgdal with the Bio7 interface which is needed for the import/export rgdal scripts (you can also install them beforehand with R!). On the Bio7 SourceForge website you can download examples for the Bio7 application (recommended!). In addition the examples can be accessed on github. To install the Bio7 examples please import the examples from the Examples.zip file. “File->Import->Existing Projects into Workspace”. Select the archive file “Examples.zip” and the two projects “Bio7 Examples” and “Ecological Modelling”. Press “Finish” to import them into Bio7 (they will be imported to the workspace location). For an increased Java heap space open the Bio7.ini file in the install directory of Bio7. In the file you can change the default memory settings e.g. the initial heap size -Xms and the maximum heap space -Xmx. For an increased Java heap space open the Bio7 package (context menu if you click on the icon) then go to Contents->MacOS and open the Bio7.ini file with a texteditor. In the file you can change the default memory settings e.g. the initial heap size -Xms and the maximum heap space -Xmx. This entry was posted in Bio7, R on August 1, 2012 by admin. Install Eclipse, R, ImageJ Plugins or Packages in Bio7 1. To install (suitable) Eclipse plugins the Update-Manager can be used to install plugins from a remote website. An How-To was already posted with the GIT plugin as an example, see: http://bio7.org/?p=1066 2. R packages can be added in two different ways. One way is to use the package installer GUI of Bio7: 3. ImageJ plugins (*.class or *.jar files) have to be installed in the plugins folder of the ImageJ Eclipse plugin which is e.g.: Bio7/plugins/com.eco.bio7.image_1.45.1/plugins. Note: In the ImageJ Eclipse plugin the typical ImageJ folder structure can be found! Folder Default (see Preferences!) Scripts executed at startup if folder available! This entry was posted in Bio7 on March 19, 2012 by admin. Enable Git for Bio7 Bio7 is based on the Eclipse platform and integrates the powerful Eclipse Update Manager. Using the Update Manager it is possible to install many useful Eclipse plugins which are compatible with the Bio7 environment. One of this useful plugins is the EGit plugin. “EGit is an Eclipse Team provider for the Git version control system. Git is a distributed SCM, which means every developer has a full copy of all history of every revision of the code, making queries against the history very fast and versatile.” (source: http://eclipse.org/egit/) To install the plugin it is necessary to add two Update Sites to the configuration dialog (Select menu: Help->Install New Software…) of the Update Manager of Bio7 (in a regular Eclipse installation the first site below is default available!): The Helios site has already access to the EGit plugin (see screenshot 3 below) but with the second link the latest version of the EGit plugin can be installed (see this website!) After you’ve added the repository (plugin location) to the Update Manager select the Eclipse EGit and Eclipse JGit plugin (see second screenshot below) and accept the license agreement (see third screenshot below). Please restart the application after the installation process has finished (confirm the restart dialog). After the restart there are new actions available in the menubar and in the toolbar. To share a Git project select the project and use e.g. the context menu in the Bio7 Navigator view. To clone an existing repository use the import action of the Bio7 platform. For instance the Bio7 examples can be fetched from GitHub: https://github.com/Bio7/Bio7.git (Read-only. No password required!) If you have a regular Git repository available Git actions will e.g. show up in the context menu. Beside the different actions there will be also new views available for different Git tasks. For the documentation of the EGit plugin visit: http://eclipse.org/egit/. Free Git repositories (with some limitations)  can be created e.g. on GitHub, Gitorious or on Google Code.

Home » Renewables It’s time for the renewable energy sector to embrace the opportunities of data and digitalisation In the offshore renewable energy sector, data and digitalisation are presenting huge opportunities for owner/operators of global offshore wind, wave and tidal energy projects. From cost-saving to improving efficiency and predictive maintenanenhance operations. We work with data owners such as wind farm owners and operators to improve efficiency and reduce costs through correct data management, processing and analysis. We also support digital service providers such as SMEs, academics andand digital tools in the renewables sector. One of the biggest barriers innovators face is accessing real-life operational data to test and verify their solutions, so last year we launched our Platform for Operational Data (POD) service which allows organisations to access data sets from our fully-operational Levenmouth Demonstration Turbine on the Fife coast. Here at ORE Catapult we have developed two benchmarking platforms to encourage organisations to adopt this approach. The first is SPARTA (System Performance, Availability Reliability and Trend Analysis), a major collaboration project between the which involves Our second platform is the Wind Energy Benchmarking Service (WEBS), a secure, anonymis onshore wind farm owner/operators around the world. Immersing yourself in the world of data management and analysis can be a daunting prospect for many companies, but I urge everyone to explore the benefits it can provide. For companies who want to dip their toe in the water, our Data Pilots are a good starting point. The aim is to help data owners explore the true value of raw data by engaging with data scientists who can deploy modern digital approaches tools and big data architectures.

10/22/2015 21:14 Like the overwhelming majority of American Jews, I lean democratic. I support gay marriage,affordable care act. Also lsupport Israel. I never thought my democratic support and pro-Israel sentiment would conflict until I arrived at my small college in Minneapolis. I found the campus climate to be shockingly leftist—much further left than mainstream democratic views. Nowhere was this more apparent then in conversations regarding Israel. Bereft of any campus Jewish life or pro-Israel student organization, the prevailing voiced view on campus (from professors to students) was that Israel was an ‘oppressive apartheid state that ethnically cleanses Palestinians’. These baseless accusations left no room for the legitimate dialogue about Israel that I desired. I could not believe it. After eighteen uncomfortable years growing up in the republican south, I had thought I was finally going to be around politically likeminded individuals. This fantasy disintegrated as I encountered more and more radical anti-Israel sentiment on my campus. But I soon learned I was not alone. As a leader of a Students Supporting Israel chapter, I was a part of a fast-growing family. I began receiving calls and emails of support from pro-Israel students around the country. Most of these people I had never even met before. That did not matter. They were part of the same Students Supporting Israel grassroots movement and they knew that if a pro-Israel student voice was shut down in Minneapolis, their voices could be next. This solidarity dispelled my anger and loneliness. With the support of an entire movement, I now felt empowered.

pundits. There are others who believe that they committed “cop-assisted suicide,” and that the police were not the responsible agents of their death the cops’ error-riddled perceptions of Russell and Williams were not the result of overreaction or poor training, but rather a sensible response to the existential-future-threat-imagined-as-immediate-possibility that life on “the mean streets” presents generally. As philosopher Brian Massumi says of the operative logic of such an existential threat: “Because the threat’s futurity is firmly held in the present, it short-circuits its own effect. It self-deters. This does not mean it ceases to operate as a cause. It means that its causality is displaced. It is no longer in a position to realize its original effect, annihilation. • </s> London – One city, two faces Where the wild ones are: They used to live in Camden or in Notting Hill, but not anymore … Real hipsters live in Shoreditch in East London.

But I am not future-oriented at all. I focus on the here and now. With my fashions, I want to show what’s possible.” Future workshop: van Herpen’s studio in Amsterdam© Majid Moussavi Van Herpen is associated especially with 3D printing as her special field. Back in 2010, she presented a top that came entirely out of the printer. While that piece was still stiff, rigid, the printed dresses she produces today are eminently wearable. “Sitting down on a chair or running in a dress from the 3D printer is no problem today,” she explains, “we print in many different fabrics and qualities, similar to a digital picture – there, too, you have different resolutions.” Since van Herpen’s ambition is tohe reads trade journals and is constantly researching on the Net. Companies she collaborates with also update her regularly. “I remember my first 3D model very well,” she says. “I produced a 2D drawing on paper, which the computer experts then translated millimeter by millimeter into codes. Today, it seems incredible that we had to use a two-dimensional sketch to get there. These days, I work with experts, who translate my ideas straight into files on the computer,

. Is there any story like that that comes to mind? Kathleen Radu (14:38 – 16:16) Yes. I think when you talk about hard work and rejection and all those bits of things, it really hits home. Because there are a lot of times you feel like you are in the trenches and you’re just pushing that up hill. When I first started, when I graduated from university and had this degree, I really felt that I should continue on my path and he (dad) didn’t approve. He didn’t speak to me for almost two years and it was really really hard and he kept saying to my mum, you need to talk some sense into her. And I mum kept saying, just trust her, she’s always done things the right way, she always thought about everything through. But it was really hard for my dad and sometimes we wait so much for other peoples permission, we want approval, especially from the people that we love. And when we get it, it confirms for us that we’re on the right path. But when we don’t get it, it can really paralyze us. And it was really hard. And really got good at trusting my gut. I think that I was a better judge of what was good for me. Because I knew me. And I was more likely, I thought, to create a life that would make me happy. And I love my dad, and he came around when he saw my success. And he was able to celebrate in that. But it was really hard the beginning because I did want so much for his approval. And I just encourage other people that if youre waiting for somebody elses permission, don’t. Just do what you feel right for you. And then just go out there and they’ll come around. It just might take them a little bit of time. Vince Reed (16:17 – 16:53) With that being said, tell us your best story of success for yourself and maybe someone on your team. Kathleen Radu (16:54 – 18:31) You bet. I would have to say it is the video that went viral. My really good friend, and someone in my business Becky Herly did the video. It went viral with over 9 million views. It changed so many peoples lives. It was one simple video in a bathroom. One take. Nothing fancy but she was so relatable to people that I literally went loaded. And it happened on December 17th and I can tell you that it changed so many peoples lives. It was the craziest Christmas ever. My kids kept saying mom are we actually going to have a Christmas? Because we were on the phone 16 to 18 hours a day. And on the internet, just feeding all of these leads that we had. And I saw so many peoples lives change. People looking for us as hope brokers. And the video gave people so much hope that they maybe could get involved in something that was bigger than them. And the ties into that my mom who was diagnosed with cancer last year in the fall. She was quite sick through the holidays and we knew that her time was coming. But I was so blessed because I actually hit the rank of diamond the 31st of January and my mom able to celebrate. We had a lovely celebration dinner with my family and my mum was able to be there. She passed away just 5 weeks alter but it was such a beautiful gift. Not just to her but to me. To all of us who worked together. This real magic happened that changed so many peoples lives. It was just really great. Vince Reed (18:32 – 18:43) And if you don’t mind, what was the video? You don’t have to give us the entire script, because I bet people are probably wondering, what kind of video is this? Kathleen Radu (18:44 – 19:23) It was just a really quick little video. It was about 3 and a half minutes long. It was in her bathroom. It was applying a product that works very quickly. Becky has a really great sense of humor and she talked about being in Vegas and this is something that would make you look ten years younger. Sometimes we worry so much and we are our bigger critic. When we’re doing a video, we retake and retake and I think sometimes we just need to trust god and the universe and put it out there. And you just leave it open to whatever it is meant to be and certainly the people whose lives have changed. My life has changed because of that video. Vince Reed (19:24 – 20:33) Kathleen Radu (20:34 – 22:30) Mhm I love what you said because I am a firm believer that you need a product of your product. Youre writing your story and you need to create that story and tell the story because that is what sells. People buy you and your story. And so you know, again, starting out, there is a statistic out there, I think it’s 90 percent of people quit network marketing after the first six or 7 months and the reason why is they exasperated their circular influence in friends and family and that’s when they have to grow andaybe they didn’t want to have to try. So a lot of people think that’s too much so they don’t do it. This isn’t a get rich quick, but this is a get rich for sure if you work, this profession hard, smart and right. And the key is that you never quit. You will achieve everything if you just keep moving in the direction. And again all of these skills that we learn in network marketing, theyre learnt skills, so you can learn, everybody has that ability. That something we were born with. And there are so many incredible leaders out there, the internet has made it so easy to listen, read, write and learn. And it will allow us to grow faster. And especially if youre part of a team that has a great system. I love point guiding and directing people. If you’re not sure about how to do something talk to the person who shared the opportunity with you and ask them. This is a people helping people business. That’s what I love about it. Your success is directly related to helping other people be successful. And so don’t be afraid to put your hand up if you are stuck. I was just talking to a girl on a call this morning. And she was saying I don’t know what to do. And within 5 minutes she had a clear idea exactly what she needed to do. To move to the next step. Somebody has walked the path ahead of you, and the steps are there. You just sometimes have to reach out and ask for help. So don’t be afraid to do that. Vince Reed (22:31 – 23:11) Absolutely. And here’s an interesting question. It’s very similar but it’s very different at the same time. You know you have a lot of people that believe in this industry, they know what’s possible. Maybe they’ve tried different companies. They are in that situation that they’ve made 50

Anyway, my concerns are more from the medical prospective. I will give an example of something that I am seeing even more frequently, a "friend" of mine (who I do in this case know in real life) said something about being tired and cold all the time, and she was going to see her doctor tomorrow. One of her friends (who I don't know, but assume that they are not a physician based on their comment) said "You need a thyroid test, but don't let them get by with the screening test, it won't be accurate because my uncle had thyroid and his first test was normal, but he made the doctor do more tests and his levels were actually low. This type of thyroid does not show up." The biggest concern, I heard this weekend, is what can we do for you?This was both at the national and state level. And while I am good right now, maybe that is the message we should be giving new physicians, how can we help you?

Great stuff, very pleased with installation and service, are happy to promote and recommend to all. Absolutely love it. Well done Martin to you and the team. </s> This is the fifth part of our DirectAdmin Tutorial Series. If you are planning a new VPS, then we recommend starting with part 1 and to not skip any parts. Uploading your website to your VPS DirectAdmin uses phpMyAdmin to manage databases. Before you can use phpMyAdmin and you can import your database, you first have to create a database. DirectAdmin is automatically configured to use FTPS. You do not need to make any configuration changes and you can start using FTPS immediately. Resellers and regular users need a private or shared FTP account if you want to give them permission to edit a website via FTPS. First, log in to DirectAdmin at 'User Level' and click 'FTP Management' to create an FTP account for this. Your new FTP account will always use @yourdomainname.com as the name. Fill in the fields and select Domain as the level of access. Domain is generally preferred because the FTP user has access to data that is important for the domain: - htpasswd: For securing elements of your site (this is beyond the scope of this manual). - stats: usage statistics from your site are stored in this folder. Start FileZilla and click 'File'> 'Site Manager'> 'New Site' and then enter the data as in the example below and click 'Connect'. - Host: This is the name of your domain. In the above example, this is supporttest.nl - Port: Use port 21 for this. DirectAdmin is configured to use FTPS over port 21. - Protocol: Select the 'FTP File Transfer Protocol'. - Encryption: Change this option to 'Require explicit FTP over TLS'. For optimum safety, this is mandatory and not optional. - Logon Type: Change 'Logon Type' to 'Normal'. Using this option, you specify that a username and password is required for connecting to your VPS via FTPS. You will be greeted by the message in the screenshot below. This message is shown because the certificates that DirectAdmin automatically generates for your TLS connection use the corresponding domain name (in this example supporttest.com). Select 'Always trust certificate in future sessions' and click 'Ok'. - Then select the files and folders that you want to upload to your website on your computer and drag them to the right to the public_html folder Your website is now online! If you do not have a database linked to your website, it is immediately visible online. - The DirectAdmin File Manager The DirectAdmin File Manager is especially suitable if you want to upload some files, or for example, want to delete or move files. The File Manager has no option to upload files in bulk. If you want to upload more than +- ten files at a time, we recommend using FTPS. Log in to DirectAdmin and click the 'Files' button. Do you only host one domain? Then click 'public_html' and continue to Step 4. Click 'Choose file' to select a file and then 'Upload Files' to upload your selected files. Your uploaded files are now immediately visible on your site. - Creating an SQL database In the steps below, you create an SQL database. Most websites use a database, e.g. to store customer data. Log in to DirectAdmin at 'User Level' and click 'MySQL Management'. Click 'Create new Database' to create a database. Then enter the database name, username, and

Essentially, they are christmas letters, but we had the idea to write them in the style of a business just for fun, and have mostly stuck to that theme. Also, that way we don’t feel pressure to actually finish the report before Christmas, but rather usually around the turn of the year. I have been making them with LaTeX the whole time, for both pdf and html versions, and we always include a graphic. We have a good time making them.

Home » Wake Rosters Blue Book notes These are notes and corrections to the Blue Book, the formal title of which is "A Rets." The book is in the public domain and can be copied. The following PDF rosters are excerpts from my database and I will be glad to share more information on request. There are two civilian lists: the Wake CPNAB roster and Civilian-other; and three military lists: USMC, USN, and USAACions to these rosters. Wake CPNAB Roster The Wake CPNAB roster contains 1,145 names of the civilian contractors caught by war on Wake. CPNAB stands for Contractors Pacific Naval Air Bases, the formal name of the consortium that included Morrison-Knudsen Co. Of the 1,145 men, 34 died on Wake during the siege and battle in December 1941; 4 died on or near Wake in 1942; 98 were massacred on Wake in 1943; and 114 died in POW camps. As of June 2018, 7 survivors are still living; I have been unable to find DOD information for 33 names in the roster. Note: the far right column "BlBk" references Blue Book images by page number and photo number. Page numbers follow the original Blue Book index to page on which name is listed: in each 2-page set, the higher photo numbers appear on the next (facing) page. Latest file update 1/15/2019 Wake USMC Roster The USMC roster has 445 officers and enlisted, and includes the navy medical team that was attached to the First Defense Battalion. According to my research, 46 Marines died in the siege and battle for Wake, 1 died on Wake after capture, 2 were executed on the POW transport Nitta Maru, and 14 died in POW camps. (Note: Major Walter L. J. Bayer, who departed Wake on 21 December 1941, is not listed.) Wake USAAC Roster Finally, the Wake USAAC (U. S. Army Air Corps) roster has 6 men, all of whom survived the war.

Fergus S. SLOAN et al., Defendants Defendants John J. Villani and Donald Eucker seek to have this court enjoin the New York Stock Exchangm during the pendency of this criminal action. They argue that such proceedingsmpair their ability to get a fair trial. Both contentions must be rejected. Aside from the jurisdictional objections *fn1" to this motion raised by both the government and the Stock Exchange [see, United States of America v. Solomon (2d cir. 1975) 509 F.2d 863 (Decided January 14, 1975)], it seems clear that this motion is inappropriate at this time. The disciplinary hearing before the Exchange, which is now scheduled for February 3, 1975, does not seem likely to interfere with the defendants' right to a fair trial. At the Exchange proceeding, the defendants will inevitably invoke their Fifth Amendment privilege should they be called to testify and subsequently interrogated. The Exchange does not have the power to compel Villani and Eucker to give testimony. What disturbs the defendants, however, is that if they do refuse to answer, the Exchange, under its applicable rules, can take disciplinary action -- including expulsion -- against them. Villani and Eucker argue therefore that they are placed in a dilemma which effectively negates their Fifth Amendment privilege. This contention must be rejected. In United States v. Kordel (1970) 397 U.S. 1, 90 S. Ct. 763, 25 L. Ed. 2d 1, the Supreme Court indicated that it was not unfair for a potential or actual defendant in a criminal case to be put to the choice of having to assert the privilege in a related civil matter. See, also, DeVita v. Sills (3d cir. 1970) 422 F.2d 1172; and United States v. Simon (2d cir. 1967) 373 F.2d 649, cert. granted 386 U.S. 1030, 87 S. Ct. 1485, 18 L. Ed. 2d 591, vacated as moot, 389 U.S. 425, 88 S. Ct. 577, 19 L. Ed. 2d 653. Furthermore, it is by no means certain that the Exchange will expel the defendants -- or indeed take any disciplinary action against them -- if they refuse to answer. The pendency of this criminal proceeding will have to be considered by the Exchange' actions. The Exchange has a wide variety of possible penalties, and it may decide that expulsion is simply not warranted. Finally, even if the Exchange were to expel the defendants, it would still be inappropriate to enjoin the proceedings. This court still would fail to see how the defendants' right to a fair criminal trial would be compromised in any way. The proper remedy for the defendants in those circumstances would be to institute a separate action against the Exchange, challenging the expulsions on grounds of due process. See, e.g., Silver v. McCamey (C.A.D.C.1955) 95 U.S.App.D.C. 318, 221 F.2d 873. Accordingly, the defendants' motion to enjoin the New York Stock Exchange is denied.

52 ancestors in 52 weeks, week 22 8ll Mary Grunsell was born in 1836 and baptised on 4 September in Overton, Hampshire. She was the youngest child of John Grunsell and Sarah Exel. The couple’s eldest child, Elizabeth, died the same year Mary was born. The other three, that I know of, were boys (five children seems a small family for the many my ancestors had). Mary’s eldest, Elizabeth, married George Snow in 1875 in Tirannaville. The next eldest, Charles, married in Goulburn in 1876. Arthur married in 1884 in Goulburn and Alice married Philip Thomas in Sydney in 1885. Walter never married and appeared to live with his mother in George Street, Goulburn. I imagine that Mary moved to Goulburn sometime after 1875. Two years later Mary herself died, on 16 May 1900, age 64. In her will, Mary left a total of £1,157, quite a substantial sum, so she did alright. She left a larger chunk (£236) to her eldest son, Charles, who must have provided for her. To her other sons she left equal amounts of £136. To her grandchildren she left £10 each and to her daughters-in-law £20 each. It appears that Mary had properties in George Street and Ruby Street (houses built by her sons) which she had rented out. She left a houselot of furniture (for two bedrooms, parlour, dining, and kitchen) and such things as pictures, ornaments and sewing machine. « 52 ancestors in 52 weeks, week 21 52 ancestors in 52 weeks, week 23 »

Gordon Waitt and Ian Buchanan WollongongClean energyClimate changePollutionSocio Economic ObjectivesGeographyPhilosophySDG 11: Sustainable cities and CommunitiesSDG 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure For bikes to get more gravity in the Australian transport network, we need to reposition the car as a well-behaved co-host of the road rather than its rightful owner In September 2022, Wollongong will host one of the world’s biggest sporting events, the UCI 2022 Road World Championships. In just a few days, the streets and hills between Helensburgh and Wollongong will be filled with thousands of road cyclists and sports cycling fans, all connected by the excitement of this world-class event. Wollongong has been named an international bike city by the UCI, which raises the question: will the enthusiasm for cycling as a serious sport continue in Australia after the event? And will it inspire the wider call – in Wollongong and beyond – for people to leave their cars at home and start commuting by bike? Cycling as a form of active transport is one of the most cost-efficient strategies for reducing urban carbon footprint and traffic congestion while improving the population’s health outcomes. Yet, for most Australians, driving a car is an activity as natural as it is intimate. Cars form an extension of the driver while offering a space that holds them safe. Thus, in Australia, commuting by car is taken for granted and commuting by bike remains a marginal activity, undertaken by people positioned by most drivers as odd and outsiders, and often treated as a nuisance. While hopping on a bike for a weekend ride is one of Australia’s most popular recreation activities, regardless of age and social status, it has not yet translated into pedalling to work. Why? Because most people are afraid – and rightly so – to ride on Australian roads. In 2019, the University of Wollongong’s (UOW) multidisciplinary research team received funding from the Australian Research Council to undertake a three-year research project, Pedalling for change: cultural geography for traffic congestion innovation. We aimed to offer new knowledge about why commuter cycling has failed to increase in Australia when leisure cycling has grown exponentially. To assist in bridging the gap between policy and commuter cycling perspectives on the ground, the research team formed a Cycling Dialogue Group with 22 volunteers. Together, we interviewed over 150 actual and aspiring bicycle commuters from Wollongong and Sydney, two notoriously hard-to-cycle cities with city councils keen to encourage active transport. The urban cyclists we spoke with are people who commute by bike, tend to be employed in professional white-collar services and live in the inner city with access to cycling infrastructure. Some of them are also long-distance commuters who used rail transport to support their journeys by bike before the COVID-19 pandemic (to avoid traffic congestion or increase productivity by working on trains) and those who started commuting to work during the COVID-19 pandemic. They all brought substantive expertise and experience in navigating traffic and cycling routes. We feel that, as academics, it is our responsibility to call for a bolder vision that recognises and acts on the abundant evidence supporting the need for innovation and change. In Australia, the planning system has favoured motorised transport since the middle of the 20th century. Now with sustainability at the front of everyone’s mind, we need to push for active transport to get more gravitas. So, what strategies would propel cycling as active transport to gain popularity in Wollongong and Sydney? Overall, the ways forward are plenty, ranging from easy-to-implement to more complex and gradual changes. Some ideas and recommendations may reinforce the importance of initiatives already being tried by Wollongong City Council and within the City of Sydney Local Government Area. These should include greater funding for an urban redesign for shared public space, changing the mindset of pro-driving adherents and refocusing policing efforts and accident analyses towards increased active transport, of which cycling forms an integral part. Imagining Wollongong and Sydney as ‘velotopias’ of Southern Europe requires repurposing our extensive road infrastructure legacy. Yet, to achieve that, we need to change state and federal government pool funding models for active transport while repositioning the motor vehicle as a well-behaved co-host of the road rather than its rightful owner. The lessons from elsewhere show that utilising existing road infrastructure for active and passive transport choices proves more successful than introducing piecemeal schemes. In 2017, the Belgian city of Ghent spent €4m to filter car access via a circular road system that prioritised pedestrians and cyclists. After just one year, motor vehicle trips had fallen from 55 to 27 per cent, and local business turnover had improved. In 2020, the traffic-congested city of Birmingham in the UK started to follow suit. These examples show that urban design is not static and must undergo significant changes, including returning streets for shared purposes rather than leaving them solely to cars. Our research team identified many policy interventions that would offer a relatively quick fix. The list is long: from integrated cycleway networks, targets for the removal of private cars from roads on par with increases in bike participation, congestion tax traffic-calming measures, slower speed limits on non-arterial roads (10-30km), end-of-destination facilities, rapid-access bike parking facilities, removal of on-street parking places while building more off-street parking facilities for residents to make space for segregated cycleways to finally closing laneways to motorised vehicles. At the same time, policing efforts and accident analysis should refocus on championing active transport. As an idea, each police station could have a designated ‘cycling champion’ responsible for good practice execution and pro-cycling activism. Also, conflict zones where cyclists join roads or driveways should be mapped, and more prevention directed towards mitigating risks and increasing safety funnelled into these areas. Once urban design embraces the notion of shared public spaces that prioritise active transport, only then it’s possible to imagine people who ride bikes and those who drive cars as co-existing in the city. Gordon Waitt is a Senior Professor in School of Geography and Sustainable Communities and Ian Buchanan is Professor of Cultural Studies at the University of Wollongong. Both collaborate on an ARC research project, ‘Pedalling for change: cultural geography for traffic congestion innovation’, which looks at cycling rates in Australia and asks why they are so low.

← Father Byers, what makes you angry? Homily 2018 02 08 – Greek Canaanite Syrophoenician Dog-Woman Exorcism → Jackass for the Hour: Chapter 16 – What are you going to do, Father? After six hours of continuous sleep, at 2:00 A.M., Father Alexámenos woke up refreshed and full of energy, grateful that he had been able to get in some sleep before any eventual sick-call. There were no religious images in the room, not even a crucifix. He opened his Liturgy of the Hour to the Office of Readings, whose page he had marked with a modern painting of the Holy Family. There looked to be two dozen children besides Jesus. The Gospels, he thought, didn’t necessarily point to the brothers and sisters of Jesus being merely his cousins; more probably, most were the adopted children of Joseph and Mary, the street urchins orphaned or thrown away by their “families.” He would have gone to the chapel, but he did not want to miss any phone call. He dressed, knelt down, and recited his morning offering and the Angelus, which he combined with the ‘Three Hail Marys’ prayer often recited at the end of Mass. Rising to his feet, as his custom was when not in chapel, he recited the psalms for the Office of Readings and Lauds. Remaining on his feet, he continued his prayer, dedicating his attention to the Mystery of the Most Holy Trinity. Pope Tsur-Ēzer had just begun a quiet prayer vigil at San Lorenzo fuori le Mura in honour of Pope Pius IX, which was significant so early into his pontificate. He spoke from the lower part of the old Basilica, next to Pius IX, facing the tomb of Saint Lawrence, in front of which is the marble slab on which Lawrence’s charred body had been laid after being removed from the grill. The stains of his remains had seeped deeply into the highly porous “rock”. Don Hash attended, but avoided the crush of people, remaining near the Blessed Sacrament in the side chapel of the main Basilica to fulfil more of his Penance, spending ten minutes in contemplation of the Most Holy Trinity. Unlike his experience in San Lorenzo in Damaso, he trusted that the Holy Spirit was drawing him through, with and in Jesus to the Father, so that he was presented to the Father by Jesus, whose priest he was. He was actually happy to somewhat cognizant of just how blinded he was to the reality of God’s Triune life so different from weakened and often sinful fallen human nature. It was because of the reality of the wounds upon the body of the Word Incarnate that kept don Hash attentive in prayer. He just finished when he was besieged with questions from a pilgrim about Saint Lawrence. The phone rang. Father Alexámenos looked at his watch. It was 3:30 a.m., more than two and a half hours to daylight. He knew exactly what the call was about. “Wi!” he said, trying to imitate what he had heard of the local accent which was hauntingly similar to what he remembered of the French of Benin. A young lady’s voice explained in the local creole – which he had only some difficulty in understanding – that her grandmother was dying and needed the Last Rites, and that a car would pick him up outside of the Nunciature in just a few minutes. Father Alexámenos quickly found his way to the chapel of the Nunciature to get the oil used for the Last Rites, as well as the Blessed Sacrament. Outside, he didn’t have long to wait. He was pleased with that, as it was oppressively hot, even at that time of night. Haïti didn’t have a summer or winter, merely dry and rainy seasons, though he thought this must be the very hot and terribly humid season. The car that came seemed to be articifically loud, disturbing residences far and wide on the mountainside. If he was still in the USA, he would have thought that this was merely a purposely shortened high-flow glasspack muffler, but he was in Haïti; the exhaust pipe had merely rusted off. He greeted his driver, who didn’t respond. Father Alexámenos wondered how it was that the seats did not fall through its floor. He could see the pavement through the many holes below his feet. He put head out the non-existent window as they lurched away, taking in the breeze as any dog might do. From his bed, père Roger heard the car drive away, and laughed, only to sigh in depression. As they drove out of Morne Calvaire, down Rue Lammare and onto Rue Panamericaine, Father Alexámenos tried to start up a conversation with his driver, a man in his forties, asking his name in French. His driver still didn’t respond, either because he was deaf or because he didn’t want to talk, or couldn’t talk. They drove further down into the Cul de Sac. “Right back to the airport,” thought Father Alexámenos. As they neared the centre of Port-au-Prince, they were stopped at various military checkpoints. They passed these with ease when the soldiers saw Father Alexámenos dressed in his cassock. Instead of continuing past the city, his driver headed to the new Cathedral, after which he deftly turned this way and that for another ten minutes, as if avoiding being followed. They seemed to be going in circles, but then they crossed some streets Father Alexámenos thought he had seen coming from the airport. The streets turned into a labyrinth of passages that could hardly be called streets. They were in one of the city’s shantytowns. The shanties had corrugated metal roofs, often badly damaged. The walls consisted of scraps of any material, sometimes cinder-block, often just more rusty corrugated metal. Finally, there was no place for a car to move, except for the open sewer flowing across a depression between the rows of shanties. A footpath hugged the shanties on both sides of the shallow, fetid water. His driver did not hesitate. Somehow, they made it to the other side without getting stuck, although the tyres momentarily lost traction several times. Just as they reached dry ground, Father Alexámenos thought he heard a piston going through the block. The silence was tangible. Such was the contrast of the loud engine unexpectedly quitting in the midst of the unexpected tranquillity of the shantytown. Father Alexámenos noticed that there were no electric lights on in any of the shanties, just a few cooking fires being stoked for an early breakfast. The flickering glow of the embers could be seen through parts of the walls. There was one electric light, however, high up on a pole in front of a large, old house, which was just in front of where the car had come to a halt. The light was plugged into a car battery. Father Alexámenos wondered if this was the extent of the government’s care for the neighbourhood. “How ironic,” he thought. “The light illuminates corruption.” There was trash everywhere. The house was the only one built up on poles perchance to escape flooding. There was an open space in front of the house and, except for the roof, was made of wood, now severely weathered. It had a staircase made up of untreated planks leading up to a veranda which ran the eight metre length of the house. It looked as if it had once been a tiny school, convent, or both, but if so, he thought, that time had passed long ago. The driver motioned with his hand that this was where Father Alexámenos was to go. They both stepped out into the trash. It seemed that, within seconds, the local people, whole families, had gathered around the house. Any car anywhere near the neighbourhood only came at night, and there was always some excitement to be seen. “The dying woman must be very influential,” Father Alexámenos thought, “and they are all gathering to mourn her impending death.” But then a young man wielding a machete in his right hand came up to him and rested the large blade on the right, front side of Father Alexámenos’ neck. He looked to be no more than seventeen years old. It wasn’t that he wanted to hurt the priest, at least not yet. Father Alexámenos was the first non-white, non-mulatto, truly black priest who had visited them without previously having arranged for a meeting that would encourage violent, political change, and he wanted to get a closer look. Father Alexámenos could feel the sharp blade cutting him slightly, but since no one in the crowd reacted, he knew he was not in immediate danger. It was just that the blade was so sharp, as if the young man wielding the machete had nothing other to do all day than sharpen the blade. Father Alexámenos looked into his eyes in such a way as to say that they were brothers. This made the young man nervous. As was his custom, Father Alexámenos asked, “What’s your name?” Father Alexámenos loudly said in his modern patois, “Pòl… je suis père Alexámenos. I am pleased to meet you.” Pòl was fidgeting, and Father Alexámenos could see that Pòl didn’t know that the machete was now more seriously drawing blood, but he could feel a trickle of blood running down his neck. “Pòl isn’t dangerous, but his fidgeting is,” thought Father Alexámenos. Father Alexámenos would rather have talked him into lowering his machete and let him save face, than do what he was going to do next, but couldn’t afford to wait longer. Father Alexámenos had been in this situation countless times as a child soldier growing up in Africa. He had his opportunity when Pòl readjusted his grip on the machete. Like lightning, Father Alexámenos grabbed the handle of the machete with his right hand, brought it around his back, where he grasped the blade with his left hand and swung it the rest of the way around, holding the machete’s handle out to Pòl, saying, “I could have killed you, but I would rather see you alive in Christ Jesus.” Since it had all happened too quickly for Pòl, Father Alexámenos had to wrap the right hand of Pòl around the handle of the machete and step back one pace, giving Pòl some room to think. Although everyone saw what Father Alexámenos had done, no one laughed at Pòl again. They were too amazed at what they had just happened. Taking the machete would be one thing. Giving it back again was quite another. Some of the men in the crowd had guns supplied to them by political agitators. While the machete was being given back to Pòl, they took aim at Father Alexámenos, who, although he heard what they were doing, ignored them, knowing they would figure it out soon enough. Those who only had machetes just looked at each other, impressed at what they had seen. “It’s not that I trust you, Pòl, nor even the fact that I’ve been quicker than you, this time…” continued Father Alexámenos. “It’s rather that our Lord has entrusted Himself to you just as He has entrusted Himself to me, making both of us brothers in His presence.” Pòl looked him curiously, but not because of what had just been said. Looking intently below the newcomer’s eyes, Pòl’s own eyes widened. He had not been expecting to see them, and so didn’t see them until this moment. Pòl held out the machete toward Father Alexámenos once again, with the tip of the blade almost touching Father Alexámenos’s left eye. Father Alexámenos guessed what was coming, and tolerated it as a way to conclude the encounter. Pòl deftly made some shallow cuts next to both eyes, which then began to bleed profusely. This wasn’t shocking to the crowd which had gathered, since they knew of Pòl’s penchant for continuing the tradition of scars. They knew Pòl had accepted Father Alexámenos as if he were a brother. It was a moving scene for those who also had the scars, the last thing they expected to see that night. The one who hated to see this was the driver of the car, who was getting visibly agitated, fearing that his mission with Father Alexámenos on behalf of père Roger was going to fail. The rest of the men also looked disappointed. Father Alexámenos kept the same expression on his face, always looking into the eyes of Pòl, even though he could feel the blood running down his face and neck, and into his cassock. It was clear that this group of Haïtians were steeped in tribal and religious superstitions, which Father Alexámenos thought he had left behind in his younger years in Benin. He knew that this was Pòl’s way of confirming him as part of his family, for the cuts made by Pòl merely reopened the scars that had already been there, scars which were identical to those of Pòl. Father Alexámenos knew that most Haïtians had come as slaves from west Africa, and many had come from around Benin. Pòl’s ancestors were from his own tribe. Pòl then held out the machete to Father Alexámenos, handle first, not so much as a sign of trust – which would have been redundant – but as a gift. Father Alexámenos responded, saying, “I am sorry that I have no gift to give you in return.” Pòl became instantly angry, grabbed the machete and, stepping back, flung it at the feet of Father Alexámenos, who didn’t move. The machete entered deeply into the dirt just between his feet. The recognition of brotherhood was not broken, but Pòl thought that this emptyhandedness of Father Alexámenos was a lie. “No one ever comes to this house without any money, or at least something to eat,” he exclaimed. Pòl began to go through the pockets of Father Alexámenos’ cassock, not knowing quite what to make of the unusual uniform. When Father Alexámenos’ driver had seen Pòl throw the machete, he rushed around the car waving his arms in protest. The driver was more interested in getting a cut of blackmail money from père Roger than what he thought was a strange form of robbery. He backed down when he was threatened by Pòl, who, though young, could easily have trounced the older man. To make sure he did not interfere any more, Pòl picked up the machete and slashed the back tyre of the car, which couldn’t have moved anyway with its blown engine. Pòl then handed the machete back to Father Alexámenos, handle first, and continued searching through the pockets of his cassock. It took him no time to find the golden Fisherman’s Ring given to Father Alexámenos by don Hash just before the trip to Haïti. Father Alexámenos’ heart sank. He had forgotten about the ring, though it had been inspected without fail at all the airport security checks. Father Alexámenos explained that he had truly forgotten about it, and then blessed Pòl, asking God that he come to know deeply the power of Christ’s love for him soon. There was nothing else he could do, afraid that if he reacted differently, he would be outnumbered, and would not be able to protect the Blessed Sacrament which he still had in a bronze pyx hanging around his neck underneath his cassock. The driver, not knowing that the engine of the car was destroyed, set about changing the tyre, even though the replacement looked to be in almost as bad a shape as the one which was slashed. Father Alexámenos now took closer stock of the people who had gathered on that sweltering night. All the men carried machetes. If someone also carried a gun, a machete would be tied to his belt. Knowing the cost of guns – though they were halfway homemade – Father Alexámenos could see that that part of the shantytown was a rebel holdout in the turbulent city. He saw just how poor they all were, suffering from malnutrition, for some of the children had distended stomachs, while others were quite thin, though stunted in their growth. He noticed that there was a certain faction among the boys – aged anywhere, he guessed, from seven to fifteen years – who each had the same marks next to their eyes and, like Pòl, wore what looked to be grossly oversized welterweight boxing trunks, as if they were some sort of pitiful street gang. The boxing trunks were manufacturing rejects which had been stolen from a charity shipment of clothing which was otherwise sold to the locals. As was the case with everyone else in the crowd, except for those who had carried rifles, all were barefoot. “Where are the girls?” Father Alexámenos wondered. “There are very young girls or middle-aged women, but no one the same age as these boys.” Like clockwork, a girl came out onto the veranda and beckoned Father Alexámenos to enter. “My grandmother is going to die soon,” she said with anguish. The girl, of diminutive stature, was covered more by her costume jewellery than by the few wisps of pricey looking material she had on. He saw other girls in the house, ‘dressed’ in the same state of undress, with the same kind of jewellery, looking out at the scene through the window frames which contained no windows. No matter how many times they had seen this kind of situation because of Mari’s dealings with père Roger, it was always an entertainment. They all put on sombre faces, as Mari had instructed them to do when they heard the car arrive. The light was just strong enough for Father Alexámenos to see that they had the same scars next to their eyes. “They’re really exaggerating with the scarring,” he thought. He recognised that it was a brothel filled with mostly underage girls. “Thank God!” thought Father Alexámenos. “They knew enough to call a priest for the Last Rites.” A wave of déjà vu came over him. Because of his own childhood, he felt like a brother to any prostitutes that he saw. He didn’t yet know the story of this brothel, but knew God could draw good out of evil, as had happened in his own life. There was no time to think, only to trust that the Lord, who, having permitted him to be in this situation, would act for those whom He loved so much as to die for them. Miracles of grace, he knew, abounded everywhere, though more frequently here, according to the words of the Lord, than in the corridors of feigned power of some of those in Church bureaucracy. Father Alexámenos took a step toward the plank staircase leading up to the veranda. When he made this comment, some of the men started to laugh, but they immediately stopped, as if they had seen similar circumstances play out before and didn’t want to compromise the scenario which they guessed was about to follow. Father Alexámenos looked over to them, and saw a video camera with a flashing red light, but the man with the camera disappeared behind someone else in the crowd. The girl on the veranda repeated that her grandmother was dying, and that he should come in now. But as she spoke, he saw a girl in a window of the house who also had a video camera in action, with its red light flashing. She did not realise that, even though there were no lights on in the room behind her, the street light was more than enough to see the camera in her hands. The camera, he thought, was surreal, given the poverty and the tragic circumstances of impending death. Yet, he did not want to jump to conclusions. People, he knew, had differing reactions to the dying of a loved one. He had hardly finished this prayer when the old woman next to him, who looked to be in her nineties, stared even harder at Father Alexámenos. Then, in his own west African tongue – of which the others could only pick out a few words – she said, “You’re being set up. The girls are going to sell the compromising pictures that they’re going to take to a priest at the Nunciature, père Roger, who visits here, driven by his friend, your driver, Toma. They do this from time to time, and you’re just the next victim. If the priest doesn’t cooperate, the boys are always ready to drag him into the house to make sure the pictures are taken.” “But how do you know this?” asked Father Alexámenos, also in his native tongue. “And how do you know my language? I am overwhelmed.” “But why are you telling me this if there have been so many others?” asked Father Alexámenos, sceptical as to the motives of the old woman. “It wasn’t because I saw the scars next to your eyes, which mean that you’re from my own tribe in Africa, but because I saw how you dealt with Pòl, my great great grandson, treating him like a gentleman, not looking down at him. That’s the first time anyone treated him well. Did you see how he looked at you before he ran off? You’re a brother to him now, and to all of us who have these scars. I don’t know where he’s gone, but he’ll be back. He’s my favourite. He’s so much more profound than the others, who look up to him. You did a lot of good, and when I saw that, I thought there might be a chance you would listen to me too.” The crowd moved closer to them, trying to follow their conversation. The girls in the house now came out onto the veranda, even though the voice of an older lady, Mari, was scolding them. The girl, who had been on the veranda before the others, came down the steps and listened behind the rest of the crowd. “I know your language,” stated the old woman, this time in the local Taíno-French/west African pidgin, so that all the others could understand. Father Alexámenos did not have much difficulty with this, since it was mostly French mixed with forms of some of the words he learned as a boy in Benin. She continued, “I learned it when I was a little girl from my great, great grandparents, who learned from their own parents, who were born along the Niger river, but had been taken to Haïti when they were just small children on the last of the slave ships in the 1790s. When I saw your face, I knew you were from my own tribe,” she repeated for the sake of the others. “You can see that I, like the girls and boys, are all from the same tribe. I have the same scars next to my eyes that Pòl supplied for you once again.” “I don’t remember everyone getting the scars in Africa,” said Father Alexámenos. They revered the old woman as their link to the past. She had reached twice the average life expectancy for the women of the nation, and more than that for the poor of this neighbourhood. The attitude of a few in the crowd toward Father Alexámenos changed markedly. It was as if they were meeting their own ancestors in him. Others were still interested in the money they think they could still make. “Filmèna,” came the answer. She then reverted back to her west African language so that no one could understand except Father Alexámenos, saying, “It breaks my heart that père Roger pays them so well for those pictures he gets. Even though its only once in a while, the girls make more money taking a few embarrassing pictures than they do the whole rest of the year put together. If père Roger didn’t ask for the pictures, they would have sold the brothel and moved on with their lives. “I’m a volunteer for the Missionaries of Charity. I try to do what I can. But my daughter is very powerful in her control of the people’s voodoo superstition. She blocks me every chance she gets. But I know the sisters have long been wanting to turn the brothel into one of their houses. They want to use it to care for Christ in the poor by providing hygiene, medicine – especially for the deworming of these little children – as well as an orphanage, elementary schooling, some beds for the terminally ill, catechism instruction for everyone… and the presence of the Blessed Sacrament.” After some moments, she asked, “What are you going to do, Father?” Father Alexámenos couldn’t anoint the ‘Madame’. He would never get the chance. There was no dying woman. Many were still interested in pictures. If he didn’t go inside, they could pretend to be offended that he wasn’t going to anoint a publically ‘repentant’ sinner on her deathbed. According to Filmèna, the boys had been ready to drag him into the house. He knew they all knew it and that it would be counterproductive to say something against the actions of Mari and the girls. Father Alexámenos figured out long ago that there was no such thing ae only choice, always, was to trust in God’s providence and do the right thing. “Heavenly Father,” prayed Father Alexámenos silently, “for the sake of Jesus’ SRepeating the words of Filmèna’s question, he silently addressed God the Father, “What are you going to do, Father?” As he let these words hang before the throne of God, he remembered the words of his bishop in Louisiana, who often quoted Martin Luther King’s rejection of the tranquillising drug of gradualism, saying that only a greater love than the love of evil can convert anyone; that greater love, he said, was immediately available with sanctifying grace. Just as Father Alexámenos silently besought the Lord – “What are you going to do, Father?” – Filmèna took out her Rosary and started to fumble with the beads. When Father Alexámenos saw this, he knew that his prayer was being answered. “Filmèna!” he exclaimed, loud enough for everyone to hear, “you are to pray.” Then, turning to the rest of the people, and eyeing them all, especially the men, he said, “You are to respond to her prayers.” He could get away with this because of the respect that they had for Filmèna. This would appear to be a preliminary prayer for the Last Rites. Filmèna said the few opening prayers of the Rosary, and some of the other women sheepishly answered with the second half of the prayers, which they still remembered from their childhood. Father Alexámenos announced the mystery. He didn’t know the idioms of the pidgin which the people spoke, but he did not want to speak to them in French alone, so he mixed his French with west African vocabulary, repeating the difficult words in French. He was pleased to see that they understood him well. He knew that although perhaps all of them were Catholic, few would have even heard of the Rosary, especially the youngest among them. He would have to explain the mysteries with simplicity, which didn’t rule out brutal honesty in the face of scepticism. Jacinta lay awake, not used to going to bed so very early. She thought of her experience of the glory of God that morning in the convent chapel, which, perceived in utter weakness, had exhausted her. The passage from Ezekiel she had read even earlier that morning came to mind. She did not feel ripped apart in every possible way; instead, in the midst of changing abundance or want she came to know stability in Christ. Although her feelings were still those of devastation, of being far from God, cut off from Him, even despised by Him – and although she had emotions of rebellion along with those feelings – she could, nonetheless, sense that Christ had a grip on her soul, and was drawing her to Himself, immersing her in His mercy. Whatever way she felt, she, in Faith, knew her soul to be in reverence before the Father. She knew, in this way, that Charity unites us to God and neighbour at the same time. Despite many conflicting feelings and emotions – which would otherwise have had her curse the Living God and die – she thanked the Lord for all the things in her life that she could remember, knowing that He drew goodness from all things. She remembered returning to her village as a little girl, carrying water – this time without little Alexámenos – only to find her family dead, as was the family of Alexámenos, though he was missing. Sitting in the midst of death for hours on end, she recalled how some Dominican sisters had adopted her when they saw her. They spent much time with her over the years, as if it were a five year novitiate. The teaching sisters were sorry to see her go – but knew it was for the best – when, at eleven years of age, Caritas visited the area and helped find an adoptive family for her, close to another villager, Alexámenos, in Louisiana. Jacinta couldn’t help but marvel that she had always been nurtured by the fire of the Most Holy Trinity. She found herself transported in prayer, as if before God’s throne, interceding for Father Alexámenos.

Film World Mourns Director Robert Altman Director Robert Altman, known for such movies as M*A*S*H, Nashville and The Player, dies at 81. He was nominated five times for Oscars and won a lifetime achievement award this year. Film World Mourns Director Robert Altman < Film World Mourns Director Robert Altman For decades, he was one of Hollywood's most acclaimed filmmakers, known as a risk taker who directed such iconic hits as "M*A*S*H" and "Nashville." Last night, Robert Altman died in Los Angeles. He was 81. Altman was nominated five times for Academy Awards and he finally received In a few minutes, Michele will talk with actor Elliott Gould, who worked with Altman on several films. First our critic, Bob Mondello, has this appreciation. BOB MONDELLO: Huge casts throwing scripts to the wind and improvising, long tracking shots that would be insane to attempt even without actors who were improvising, the blackest of black comedy and everywhere dialogue overlapping and bleeding from one scene to the next. That was Robert Altman's signature from the first time anyone noticed him in 1970 with his irreverent wartime satire, "M*A*S*H." At a time when movie dialogue was all about clarity, Altman's opening scene is a declaration that things this time will be different. (Soundbite of movie, "M*A*S*H") Mr. ROGER BOWEN (Actor): (as Blake) Radar. Mr. GARY BURGHOFF (Actor): (as Radar) Yes, sir. Mr. BOWEN: I need to get ahold of Major Burns. Mr. BURGHOFF: Call Major Burns. Mr. BOWEN: Tell him I'm going to ha Mr. BURGHOFF: I'll put a call in to General Hammond in Seoul. I hope he sends us those two new surgeons. We're sure going to need them. Unidentified Man: What was that, sir? Mr. BOWEN: I gave everything to Radar. Unidentified Man: What? MONDELLO: "M*A*S*H" made Altman the grand old man of Hollywood's new wave. In his late forties, when the headline making Spielbergs and Scorseses were decades younger, he wasn't much interested in doing things the Hollywood way. He made a sort of anti-western called "McCabe and Mrs. Miller," which was all about whorehouse capitalists spreading corruption. He crossed up detective movie conventions in Raymond Chandler's "The Long Goodbye" with Elliott Gould. And then in "Nashville," he made what is arguably his master work, setting the likes of Lily Tomlin and Keith Carradine to singing country songs in a film that more or less defines the term political satire. (Soundbite of movie, "Nashville") MONDELLO: Altman's work in the decades after Nashville was erratic as he leaped from intimate dramas to enormous ensemble films. His interlocking epic "Short Cuts" perfected that narrative style long before films like "Crash." His Hollywood mocking comedy "The Player" opens with a tracking shot that's both a joke and a tour de force, and if it sometimes seemed that he followed every successful film with one that was simply strange, he was, as he told NPR's Jackie Lyden six years ago, philosophical about how his films were received. Mr. ROBERT ALTMAN (Filmmaker): You know, it's like your own children. All these films. I love them all andost because they seem to need the most protection. But when they're finished, they're finished and they're disconnected from me. That cord is cut MONDELLO: Often they did, though Hollywood's moguls kept writing them off anyway. There was no love lost between Altman and the business world of film, but he had nothing but respect for actors, and the feeling was mutual. Tinseltown's biggest names clamored for even bit parts because he gave them a chance to discover and create and grow, so much so that as he told NPR's Lynn Neary on the set of "Prairie Home Companion" last year, they often got completely caught up in the moment, and so did he. Mr. ALTMAN: I have to have somebody. I say how was that? Did they say everything? Did they leave something out? And many times they'll say that was great. And then the script girl will come to me and she says you know, they didn't say the part about killing the fish. I'll say well, what was that? She said, well that's the important part of the scene. That's the point of the scene. I say oh, we have to do that again and don't forget about killing the fish. MONDELLO: "A Prairie Home Companion," a kind of showbiz elegy that was all about wrapping things up, was fated to be Altman's final film. When he received his Oscar for lifetime achievement earlier this year, he revealed that he'd had a heart transplant a decade ago and had never really expected to work again after it. Happily for audiences, he worked more or less constantly, crafting seven more films, earning a fifth Oscar nomination for best director and staying true to his fiercely independent ethos. Mr. ALTMAN: There's not a filmmaker alive, nor has there ever been, I have never been without a job. I've never been without a project of my choosing. Now that doesn't mean I'm - I may be doing a picture for, you know, s with a studio, they would have been $25 to $30. But it suits me fine. MONDELLO: It suited audiences, too.

Destiny 2 Fortress Mode is Coming! Years after its official launch, Bungie continues to deliver new content for Destiny 2 fans, as well as fight cheaters by any means available. The arrival of season 19 of the beloved FPS is now imminent and the team wanted to spread a few more details, without however going too far. The new mode, introduced by this new phase of the game, will bring many innovations never seen before in the title and will be able to offer players new alternatives to vary the gameplay. Destiny 2 (which you can find on Amazon), therefore, will have for the first time a PvPvE mode which will be called Fortress. The team has not released many details regarding this addition, however, we know that we will find ourselves fighting for the challenges that will be entrusted to us by the Empress Caiatl. These will change from time to time and will lead us to clashes with both NPCs and other players divided into teams of three Guardians who will try to obtain the exclusive rewards offered by the mission. This new mode for Destiny 2, in fact, is structured according to control points that the teams of Guardians will have to conquer if they want to achieve victory. However, it will not be enough to defeat the NPCs that we will find in each point to be conquered, since we will also have to deal with other teams of players who will try to achieve the same goal as us. To leave the mode successfully, therefore, we will also have to defeat the other Guardians and thus allow our team to triumph. Bungie did not want to release any other information regarding this new Destiny 2 mode but we know that it will arrive with the first Iron Banner of season 19. This indicates that Fortress mode will be available on January 3, 2023. In the few weeks that separate us from the event, it is possible that the team will tease players with a new trailer that can show more details about the new season and the additional content that will arrive with the next season of the FPS. Before that, make sure you are playing the correct version of the title.

India finished fifth in the 27th Sultan Azlan Shah Cup The Irish, ranked 10th in the world and making their debut in the tournament, surprised the world’s sixth-ranked India with a 3-2 win in their last preliminary round group match here on Wednesday – a result that knocked out India’s chances in the medal count. It was one of India’s worst finishes in the tournament since the inception of the Sultan Azlan Shah Cup in 1983, having won the title five times. They finished runners-up in 2008 and 2016 and won bronze medals for a record seven times, the last being in 2017. It took India just five minutes to take 1-0 the lead from their second penalty corner. Man of the Match Varun Kumar was spot on with a powerful flick to the left of goalkeeper Jamie Carr. Shilanand Lakra extended the lead in the 28th minute via a field goal, Varun returned to score his second and India’s third goal in the 32nd minute from their fourth penalty corner whilst Gurjant Singh netted the fourth goal in the 37th minute from open play. Ireland made a drastic change in the third quarter, introducing reserve goalkeeper Mark Ingram for Carr and the move paid well as India’s marauding forwards were kept in check with an outstanding performance. Julian Dale, however, eased the Irish pain by netting a field goal in the 48th minute. India picked their sixth penalty corner in the late stages but Varun’s low drive went off the mark. Ireland, however, kept the momentum going and earned their first penalty corner five minutes to the end of the match which proved fruitless. ← Alternate technology is the need of the hour for Mega Water Conveyance Systems – Gadkari Extension of tax exemptions for exporters for six months →

I was almost 22 years old when you presented yourself to this world, and you took me out me. It’s a pretty young age to have such an important responsibility. For the first time in my life I remember feeling that I would give up anything I wanted for something that you wanted. It’s a reminder of when I got home after I was told I was pregnant, looking into a full length mirror at my tummy and thinking “there’s a little baby in there”. As a supporter of choice I do think women should be able to go home and feel comfortable with the decision they made, but I just know that I remember having a certain strong feeling about having you as part of me. I felt this was my chance to prove that I could do it right. And when you were a baby it frequently occurred to me that as a young mom, one of my “jobs” was to make sure that I would be sending you in a positive direction. The psychology of being a male but still being connected to your heart was very important to me. It still is. I remember you asking me why you couldn’t have the same response to things that Mr. Spock did, because he was so rational. Today it seems like you’ve found the perfect balance between Mr. Spock and your heart, and that is good news for me. But, I would remind you, never lose touch with what you feel. Always make sure that your whole life is a an expression of who you are. Your dad, I think, would agree that it’s a good idea to never give up activities that allow you to be Chas. To be able to love and be loved is the ultimate goal’s probably just a reminder to me. I chose this day because it gets me hen I saw you last I was talking about all the beautiful things there are in life, and for me your birthday is one of them because of all the happy memories I have (of course be a productive contributer to society…yada yada yada). Again, I hope you had a splendid day, and I will speak to you soon. These outings are so important to me to help me feel connected to the outside world. These wrias well. </s> "Hack the planet!" was the mantra from the 90s movie, Hackers, where a group of "misunderstood" youngsters banded together to fight corporate greed, lying and theft.

Five years ago, a cyber software company had a brilliant idea: what if we got the hackers to work for us? Well, wouldn't that go against the fake hacker code? (See motivation one-greed.)

o “local impact and global reach.” Others have coined “glocal,” e. Let’s start with a few basic premises. Universities in Canada are publicly funded by their provinces, and university administrators are quick to argue that we are a public good. This means we need provinces as well as the wider Canadian and global contexts. We also need to balance the creative tension between applied and foundational research, and between academic freedom and prescribed utility. But, how to do so without limiting academic freedom and curtailing basic research? And, how do we tackle local problems and make them the hallmark of an internationally excellent university? Public universities in Canada might draw inspiration from the U.S. land-grant universities, founded under the Morrill Act, during President Lincoln’s tenure, to meet the local educational and research needs of various states. In 1937, the Americanmarked the act’s 75th anniversary with a speech by its president, stating, “The future of the land-grant colleges will be determined by the nature of the problems which come up in the areas they serve.” At a summit on the 150th anniversary of the act in 2012, the president of North Dakota State University noted how relevant those words are today. With such notable institutions as Cornell and MIT numbered among them, the land grant universities have become a major force of excellence in both education and research throughout their 150 years.

Virginia’s starting LT Taylor enters transfer portal; Walker also leaving, Butler staying Posted on Friday, Dec. 16, 2022, 6:18 pm Virginia’s offensive line took another blow on Friday when one of its top players, starting left tackle Logan Taylor, entered the transfer portal. Taylor is the third UVA offensive lineman to enter the portal this month, including starting left guard John Paul Flores and backup right guard Zach Teter. In addition, Virginia’s offensive line coach for the past seven years, Garett Tujague, resigned earlier in the week to accept a similar position at NC State. Tujague was also the program’s recruiting coordinator. Taylor, who came to Episcopal High School in Alexandria from Nova Scotia, was considered a top-10 prospect in the state by 247Sports. The 6-foot-6, 300-pound tackle, started all 10 games for the Cavaliers this past season and was one of 14 true freshmen to see playing time in 2021. Preceding Taylor in the portal this week was veteran reserve running back Ronnie Walker Jr., who saw little action this season after suffering an injury in the spring. He transferred to Virginia from Indiana. Meanwhile, defensive end Kam Butler, a grad student transfer from Miami (Ohio) to Virginia before the 2022 season, announced that he will return to the Cavaliers’ program. While normally, Butler would have exhausted his eligibility,exclusively to UVA players due to an NCAA ruling because of the shooting tragedy that claimed the lives of three of Butler’s teammates. Virginia canceled its last two games of the season due to the slayings and the NCAA granted any Cavalier players in their final year of eligibility an additional year. Butler, who was a three-time, All-Mid-American Conference honoree (first-team in 2021), started all 10 of Virginia’s games in 2022 and posted 29 tackles. 4.5 tackles for loss, 3 sacks and 3 QB hurries.

In the event that the guest's stay is compromised resulting from the absence of, deviation from the intended purpose of, or a feature which is inferior than as such advertised the inn, at it's discretion, will attempt to ameliorate the possible loss of goodwill with various goodwill offerings other than the crediting of funds back to the guest's account. Any amenity, other than the basic necessity of shelter (e.g. bed and rooom which is reaonably seure from the elements), while offered as complimentary is not guaranteed in any form and, at the discretion of management, may ameliorate the guests discomfort with a form of goodwill on a subsequent stay. There are many potential reasons for an amenity(s) to not be available and in good working condition and appearnace. Some of these reasons are not so regualr as, for example, we may from time to time, without notice, retire an existing amenity and, sometimes renovate it. Please bear in mind that while we do endeavor to have everything working well, looking good, etc. we do not coveneant that it will be so. For us to ensure many (if not all) amenities to be as expected and, moreover, to our standard we would need to increase the prices dramatically. The rates for the accommodations are comprised of several components. These are charges for the accommodation, a service fee for the parking, a service fee for the breakfast, and an inn fee which covers other services. The total of these fees, as of January, 2011, is $75.00/night/accommodation. While the bed-tax of 12% is applied, ostensibly, upon the making of the reservation to the total charges it is broken down to be applied to the nightly charge of the accommodation minus $63.00. The bed tax, in actuality, is applied to this net amount. This is less than our total fees outlined above. We simply absorb any dicrepencies as goodwill due to the fact that our system, at this time, is not able to represent this automatically when the reservation is made. When a new promotional rate is posted for a period where the rates for existing reservations are higher then the Inn will issue an Inn gift certificate for the difference as goodwill only if it si requested by the guest. Some restrictions may apply.. There will be no cash adjustments. Any new three night reservation will be discounted by 15%. For any new four-night reservation there will be a 25% discount applied each night to the regular price of the accommodation. Great promotional rates offered for stays of seven days or longer.

A lot of people thought it was just nutrition and gave us all kinds of vitamins and supplements (St. John’s Wort, Valerian Root, L-theanine, B-12, Benadryl, Melatonin) to get me to sleep, but none of it even touched it [the sleeplessness]. I mean, I wasn’t drinking caffeine at all that month, but I was taking all these supplements and eating all this food that’s supposed to help, but I’m still awake at 2:00 in the morning. I kept feeling guilty because my husband had to do all kinds ofctivities of daily living – like 5 loads of laundry all of his own work and running the ministry. Then he kind of broke down one day and realized not only was I depressed and exhausted, but he was suffering from burnout.In our lives, God already has a backup of the important files. But, God knows the value we each have to Him. The world might throw us aside when our beauty doesn’t match up, but God hadn’t forgotten about them, me, or you.
