en | N/A | N/A | Inner GPS In Our Lives
Nowadays most of us rely on a GPS when driving in an unknown area. We willingly follow the instructions the voice is giving us. Without this navigation system we would easily get lost. Could we compare this familiar navigations system with the Gnosis, which also gives us guidance and direction in our lives?
In the course of our lives we often ask ourselves in what direction we should go. What is the right decision? Often we are not even sure what our true destination is. Life takes us on paths that are difficult to predict, to crossroads where it is hard to decide in which direction to continue.
We long for guidance, but are at the same time so absorbed with our difficulties that we are not always aware that help is there.
The Gnosis is always there, is always speaking to us—if only we would listen. Often we (our personalities) assume that the direction we are taking is the right one. But have we followed our inner voice, the voice of the Gnosis?
We become more and more entangled in detours. We pursue a different direction, always in the hope that it will be the right way. However, our ego does not know the right way.
The Gnosis wants to guide us. We only have to be open for it. We have the choice to turn on our inner GPS, to listen to it and to follow ‘the instructions.’ The Spiritual School supports us in this process of ‘learning to listen’ to the guiding voice of our inner GPS.
Like a GPS that recalculates the route to our destination when we take a wrong turn, so the Gnosis is always there to guide us on our next step in our current life situation. It does not matter how deeply entangled we become in the net of our dialectical lives, still the Gnosis will always ‘recalculate’ and guide us, starting from the point in life where we find ourselves. All that we have to do is to hold on to our deep inner yearning for the true aim of our life.
And think of the calm and neutral voice of a GPS. It is unaffected by our wrong turns, it does not get impatient. It is the same with the Gnosis. Her calling voice is always there, having already patiently waited for us during many incarnations, until finally we start recognizing it and begin to follow its guidance.
It is our choice to turn on our inner GPS and to let it guide us through our lives by the directions of the Gnosis.
Will we take more detours—or will we begin to listen and follow the road to our true destination?
From a Rosicrucian prayer:
May we now- O, Gnosis- set our foot upon the Path
May we dedicate our lives to the Purpose for which they were given us.
O that we all might understand the Mystery of Liberation.
He who has received the Seed of the Spirit can begin to walk the Path.
He who carries the Seed-of-Light within him possesses a treasure that cannot be taken from him.

That is the average earthly life-span of a human-being. This may appear to be too short in duration, but it is the quota that man has allotted to himself. There was a time when man lived hundreds of years in physical incarnation. The Biblical references to 900-year lifespans are true. As man digressed spiritually and morally, he distanced himself from the Divine Plan. Whenever we diverge from God's Plan, deterioration and negative dematerialization is the result. Man's life-span was shortened accordingly. Only the Divine Teachers, the priest-kings of that time, maintained the extended life-span, because they "walked with God".
There are no Divine Teachers in physical form on Earth today. The overall planetary vibration is presently far too low to accommodate entities of a divine nature. Humanity has descended so far that we are only allowed a short dip into matter before we must be pulled back into the reflection-sphere. Think back to a few hundred years ago. The life-span was even shorter. People were lucky to reach 40, 45 years of age. 72 was probably the average then as well, but the conditions that man lived under during those times were much more physically harsh and demanding than today. Not to mention the incessant wars and their resulting fatalities. Then, as now, man spent 99% of his time figuring out how to survive and make the best out of physical life and perhaps 1% on the higher spiritual life. That 1% usually did not manifest itself until death drew near. This also remains true today.
So here we are, born with the clock ticking.
What can we possibly accomplish in such a short amount of time? Some pursue riches, fame and glory, in order to "leave their mark" on the world. Others feel that they are too small to change the world, so they focus upon the next best thing, which is to make themselves as comfortable as possible. They pursue personal comforts and entertainments. Then there is a class of human-beings who, out of ignorance, fear and confusion, choose to elbow their way through life, taking from others, hurting others, causing harm and destruction wherever they go. Through violence, they attempt to extinguish the fires that burn within. Sadly, they succeed only in fanning the flames.
All of these groups will someday reach the limit of their mortality. As death approaches, they will review their lives. Whether their overall experience has been "successful" or "unsuccessful", nagging questions will still persist:
"Is that all there is to Life?" "What was the point?" "What's going to happen to me when I die"?
These are questions that should have been asked decades prior. Most wait until the end to give them any consideration. By then, it is too late. They will transition in a confused state, back to a reflection-sphere whose ways they have forgotten and where they will most likely be taken advantage of to some extent.
Thankfully, there are those who, as a result of countless incarnations of striving towards the Light are born into the physical world prepared to ask those questions early on in life and are armed with the tools to search for the answers. These seekers recognize the futility of physical life on a deep, unspoken level. They are able to hear the Still, Small Voice within them, the faint stirrings of the Divine Spark.
These ones will be assisted in their search for That Which They Do Not Know. Gradually, step-by-step, they will find themselves guided to situations that will provide them with an opportunity to broaden their insight into the true nature of their existence. Once they have obtained the proper insight, the true Purpose of their Life will be revealed to them. They will become aware of the One Goal of Humanity: Liberation.
We are here to liberate our immortal microcosms from this mortal existence. To do this, we must see ourselves as servants and not as masters. We are here in service to our microcosmic Spirit-nucleus, the Other One that sleeps within us, the Very Ancient One who has waited an eternity for a personality to come into existence that could free Him.
If we can locate the true Path of Return and follow it diligently, with faith, steadfastness and determination, we will begin the transfiguristic process required to free the Other One. The credo states that "He must increase, while I must decrease". What John uttered is gnostic truth. We must live to bring forth the Other One, which means that our personal concerns, desires, hopes and dreams must be put away - forever. We live to serve the Other. If we follow this Path to its ultimate conclusion, we will not perish, but will share in the multi-dimensional, eternal glory of the One we have helped to Resurrect.
This process needs only to have been started in this life in order to avoid having to meet the reflection-sphere fate of those mentioned above. Those who begin walking the Path of Return in earnest humility while in the physical will not transition to the ordinary reflection-sphere upon death, but will be taken to Shamballa, a region of safety, a vacuum of pure ethers which will enable the Candidate to continue walking the Path of Liberation without interference while maintaining the use of the etheric double, or vital body. He or she will "go no more out". A new incarnation will not be required, unless it is a voluntary choice made in the service of mankind.
So continue your Walk in faith and confidence. Yes, at times you will falter. Yes, there will be setbacks. It is not easy to shake off the aeons of this nature - we are made of the same astral material as the aeons that exert so much control over us; they are, after all, man's own creations - but it can be done! The personality known as Jesus stands as a shining example of that Victory. Accept failure as a part of the Journey. Do not quit! Do not deem yourself unworthy! When you fall, get back up and keep Walking! Don't look back. It is this moment that counts, not the moment that has passed. Every moment we are transmuting the vibration-state of our microcosm. It is a cumulative effort. One failure cannot be cause to stop trying. Every failure should urge us on to the next success. Every success will make the next failure harder to come by.
If we can stay on this Road, there will be no lingering questions at the moment of transition. We will face so-called "death" in peace, knowing that we are but crossing over to Shamballa, where we will join with all those who have gone before us, those who have "died in Christ" (to "die in Christ" means to die with the Divine Spark awakened, consciously walking the Path of Return). We will truly be heading home, well on our way to freeing the Other One within us and fulfilling the Divine Plan of the Logos for the Salvation of Lost Humanity.
One short lifetime. Amazing things can take place in those 72 years for those who find The Way, The Truth and The Life.

Labels: Liberation, The One Goal Of Humanity, the other one, the very ancient one
Originally posted on 24 February 2012.
Well, we have to tell you that various planetary mankinds possess the theoretical and practical knowledge to make and build such instruments and vessels. They already had this knowledge when The Wrath in the dualistic universe was kindled. The stories of flying saucers throughout all ages and all that has come to our knowledge about them during the last years prove this fully. We lack the necessary technical scientific knowledge to give you a satisfactory explanation of the precise structure of the propelling device. We can give you, at best, an image of it as a layman sees it.
As you know, electricity is a phenomenon that accompanies every magnetic current. Where there is a magnetic force, there is also electricity. That is why a giant electrical capacity that can never be exhausted is always present in the entire universe. Scientists of the earth have demonstrated over the centuries, with very poor instruments, that us should be possible to pick up this atmospheric or cosmic electricity. Tremendous atmospheric electrical discharges are known to have a disrupting effect on various instruments.
Anyhow, the space travelers possess the knowledge and devices to pick up cosmic electricity wherever they may be and to concentrate it in relatively small spaces. Assisted in this way, they create an electromagnetic field in and around their vessel. By making this field positive or negative at will, and in this way attuning it to their own planetary north and south polar currents, they can leave their planet, or they can travel towards it. The speed of their vessels depends on the increasing or decreasing of the electromagnetic field in question. When you also assume that they are subsequently able to attune their device to any other given planetary field, you can imagine that space travel is as simple for these entities as cycling is for us.
For the technically-minded person, many problems remain, of course, still unsolved. We certainly cannot give an adequate answer to every question, because we do not approach these problems from the technical point of view. We can, however, state with certainty that an entity knowing how to apply the electromagnetic current will thereby be able to solve many such problems. All this, and we emphasize this point, belongs entirely to the practice of life-waves in the dualistic realm of the nature of death.
All atomic vandalism -- and all experimentation with atomic science is vandalism -- communicates itself immediately to, and manifests itself in the magnetic earth currents. Thus, cooperation in the solar system is disturbed. The solar system, as we saw, is one magnetic system. When earth's mankind, driven by blind instincts, affects the foundation of the inter-cosmic system by causing heavy atomic bombardments or experiments with incomprehensibly high energies (for this is what it amounts to), the disorganization will communicate itself to all planets. Numerous chain-reactions will result in the suicide and the murder of all the inhabitants of the solar system.
Of course there are still many other causes of disorganization of the earth's magnetic field and consequently of the solar system, because every unholy condition of humanity brings with it such a consequence. Yet, where technology and the madness of science serve the unholiness, there the dangers are of highly alarming proportions. Although in all ages there has been talk of interplanetary visits by means of space ships, in our time such visits are the order of the day. Yes, we are convinced that at this moment not a second passes without large numbers of such vessels being present in our atmosphere. The question can now be asked: what are those vessels and their crews doing in our life-field? Only looking? Only investigating? Filling us with dread by their presence? Do they threaten us with mass attacks?
In answer to these questions one could say: they do not have to look, because they know better than we do what is going on. Neither do they have to investigate, for they know from the past what to expect when earth's mankind is once again on the point of reaching the peak of its civilization. Neither can they fill man of the masses with dread, for such a man submits to and unconditionally follows his "authorities". The "authorities" deny the phenomena and the press and the radio usually follow suit. Besides, the space ships stay as far as possible from the inhabited areas in order to attract the least possible attention. Moreover, there is no question of attacks, for any destruction for instance, of the large quantities of various atom bombs already available would result in an immense disaster in the entire solar system.
No, the continuous presence of space ships in our atmosphere, all of which do not originate from other planets, has a totally different explanation. The fact is that they are continually repairing the damage inflicted upon the earth's magnetic field by the shocks and ravages of mankind. Starting from the earth's magnetic poles, where they land incessantly, groups of spaceships are continually restoring and adjusting, to purify and regulate the vibration of the inflowing and radiating currents, "to rectify" shocked magnetic fields and to feed them in order to safeguard the inter-cosmic household to the best of their ability.
Thus, the space ships do very beneficial work.Without their help, our world and the entire solar system would have long since had to end this Day of Manifestation. However, this work has, in the main, a purely self-protecting purpose, for all these entities are not able definitely to extinguish or destroy the unholiness caused by earth's mankind. Mankind itself must wipe out its karma. Therefore, the said cleansing of the earth's magnetic atmosphere has to do with a concentration of all this unholiness.This concentration has reached such proportions that it is almost visible while it is becoming ever larger and denser.

The Very Ancient One - Conclusion
The Universal Doctrine says that the Original Substance, both in this world and the one above it, is sevenfold and that every situation and principle is divided by degrees into seven gradations of density and of nature. And so it goes on, until there is a, for us, unknown number of spaces within the Original Seven which in turn are to be considered a unity. This unity, seen as a whole, reveals the entire universe. everything is contained within it. The Divine Breath flows within this unity of substance.
However, mankind identifies its experience of space and order, its dualistic life reality with the one absolute Divine Purpose. We know that the substance from which mankind lives is totally different from the other substances. That is why the inhabitants of the earth who only experience their own material manifestation or substance and who therefore look through the other substances with unseeing eyes, think that the Universe is just an empty space. Yet there is not a millimeter, not an atom of empty space. An entity of another space in the All-Revelation transferred into our order of time-and-space would not be able to express himself in our order and would not be able to live in it. If such an entity in "his" space was living an eternal life, then he, being imprisoned in ours would come to know death as a life sensation. Yet, as an eternal being, he would not experience death in our sense. His end would therefore be like the outer darkness.
It appears from all accounts given by the Universal Doctrine and the Holy Language that a very large, unknown number of entities from a higher, more absolute field of manifestation did indeed sink down into our own, and afterwards were unable to express themselves because of the totally different nature of the dualistic field of manifestation. Thus they were irretrievably lost. Once they were Children of the Light; now they became children of the darkness. All this can be explained perfectly from a natural scientific point-of-view. Natural potentials always have limits. We, as lung-breathing beings, cannot breath in water or live in a vacuum. If our state-of-nature is fundamentally violated, we cannot maintain ourselves. It is the same in the multitude of spaces in the All-Revelation. It is utterly impossible to transfer a creature from its own natural space into another space which is not in agreement with its nature. One revelation is not compatible with another.
Now it may be known to you from the philosophy of the Rosycross that the dualistic space in the All-Revelation was never intended to be a life-space for human entities. The dualistic space had, and in fact has, a totally different purpose. However, when in the ancient past many entities were submerged in this dualistic space, this chaos of contrasts, and without help would have been irretrievably lost, it pleased the Logos to bring to development a Revelation of Salvation for them. A Revelation of Salvation, of healing, is of course always temporary, subject to time; it is not meant to last. Therefore all our microcosms are subject to this Revelation of Salvation. This accounts for our presence in our microcosms, the presence of the time-space entity. We, living so vitally in this nature-order, are being called to pass through the Rose-gate and vitalize the imprisoned, submerged, frozen pre-man, the "Very Ancient One"; to drive him, as forerunners, across the border of this nature-space; in this way enabling the Submerged One in our microcosm to return to his Fatherland.
The Revelation of Salvation for the "Very Ancient One" is at the same time a message of salvation for us. To us, beings of time, subject to nature, born for and dedicated to death, is promised eternity in the Fatherland of the Very Ancient Ones if we dedicate ourselves to the task for which we were created. Totally absorbed in our Companion, being one with him, we shall leave the spaces of time and enter the space of Eternal Life. When we, as true servants are willing to fulfill our tasks to the microcosmic House of Service, then the Great Miracle will occur, the temporary will be swallowed up by the Eternal. By non-being according to nature, by non-action according to the "I" of nature, we are all elected, through the Rose-gate, to be the Children of God. In order to be able to go this highly joyful way we only have to break through all the delusions inherent in time-and-space. At the point of separation, at the borders of time, we have to take leave of the forces of time-and-space. These forces, driven by their nature, try to maintain us in the nature of their earth.
From "The Very Ancient One and the Legend of Hoel Daht" - There Is No Empty Space - Jan van Rijckenborgh
Those heavenly beings who fell from grace? That's us, many, many millions of years ago. As microcosms, we've been stuck here since then, our glorious Origins forgotten. Blissfully ignorant of our Past and our Purpose, we send one personality after another to wallow in the muck of earth-life, happily embracing the perpetually swinging Pairs of Opposites, repeatedly nailing ourselves to the cross of matter.
We are unable to remember where we came from. We cannot see or experience anything of the Sixth Cosmic Domain, our Original home, even though it is nearer to us than hands and feet. A terrible state-of-affairs.
There is only one way out. Time and again, a rope of salvation is let down from Above. It has been lowered once more for all of mankind during the end of this major world-cycle. Is anyone trying to grasp that rope? Does anyone even know that a rope has been lowered? For those who see the rope, do they know what it's for? Will they grab hold or turn away, yet again?
The Call resounds. The Ark has been prepared and is now set for departure. Who among us is ready to put away their earthly toys and return Home?
The Very Ancient One
The course of our lives is played out in space. We speak of an order of time-and-space, a space in which everything is subjected to a phenomenon we call "time". Hereby we express that everything which is has a beginning and an end, shows an ascent and a descent, in brief, is dualistic. The ascent we call birth, the descent, death. At the point where death becomes complete and the microcosm is totally emptied, birth sets in again. everything that is to come has already been. Everything that is, is doomed to depart.
This dualistic order, hence an order of time-and-space in which death is an irrefutable companion of all and everything contains very great secrets. It is necessary to unveil some of these mysteries in order to vivify our insight into the necessity of Transfiguration. If we succeed in this we shall be able to understand many incomprehensible processes which occur in our lives, to understand their purposes and so to decide either to cooperate fully in such processes or withdraw from them entirely. When we speak and think about the processes of life and death we in fact limit ourselves almost exclusively to the various forms of life we know and which we come into contact directly. We know that the Rosycross teaches that everything we refer to as our personality is subject to death. That is to say, all the vehicles of our personality and the consciousness dwelling therein -- the consciousness we call our "I" -- cannot maintain themselves in the order of time-and-space with both its spheres (material-sphere and reflection-sphere). They are totally eliminated, dissolved. What is left is the emptied microcosm which, after being emptied, provides itself with a new inhabitant, this being made possible by the earthly maintaining process (~ g: reproduction). But did you know that another process of death also occurs in every microcosm?
We, nature-born beings of the order of time-and-space are in the process of dying while living. This process of dying usually occurs within a period of at the most a hundred years. All this is known to us. But in this order of time-and-space there is still another process of dying that can take millions of years, namely that of One who is imprisoned with us in the same microcosm. After we have closed our eyes forever in this material-sphere, glimmering on for a short while in the reflection-sphere, The Other One in our microcosm will perhaps be in the process of dying for an interminable time.
Until now we have called The Other One "the Rose" and we know that this Rose is a point of contact of the Gnostic Radiation, a contact between two Worlds. But a great mystery lies behind the symbol of the Rose; a dungeon, a sepulchral temple in our microcosm in which the "Very Ancient One" lies enchained, the Ever-Dying One who bears the afflictions and experiences of all the mortal companions who were very near to him in the order of time-and-space. However, in this order great forces are at work to bring about the quickest possible death of the "Very Ancient One" who is hidden behind the door of the golden Rose, for then only the eternal scar of memory would be left in the microcosm and the order of time-and-space would no longer be endangered. Conversely, great forces are also at work to supply the Bread of Life to the "Very Ancient One" in his dungeon, to keep him alive and so prolong his miserable existence, in the hope of releasing him before he dies and then to rescue him from all dangers.
To sum up: in every microcosm two entities are to be found, the self and The Other, the "Very Ancient One". The self, totally subjected to the nature of duality, beginning in time and ending in time and The Other One, imprisoned in, though not of, this nature. The Other One originates from a very different state of life, but has sunk down into ours due to a prehistoric incident. He does not truly live, but is as if frozen in the order of time-and-space, unconscious, immersed in a trance of death. Almost imperceptibly slowly his life is squeezed to death in the cold of the world. If that process of death were to be fulfilled, it would be far more terrible than ours. When an entity pre-destined to be eternal is submerged in a field-of-death, a situation similar to that of suicide develops for that entity; a situation from which there is no escape and which is designated in the Holy Language as "the outer darkness".
An extremely confused and complicated situation therefore exists in our immediate microcosmic life-field. Two lives, both mortal, are lived in it, one of which is like a slow-motion film. It is possible to explain fully how this dramatic and peculiar situation came about and indeed one can see evidence of it in every-day life. For this reason we ought to think of one of the inscriptions to be found in the sepulchral temple of Brother Christian Rosycross:
"There is no empty space".
We are not here in service to ourselves. Our mission, our duty, is service to "The Other One" that lies as if asleep within us. The "image with the dead eyes", the "Ancient of Days" as it has been referred to by some.
It is our task to do what is necessary to re-ignite the Divine-Spark, attract the great Gnostic forces, the Christine radiations, and provide the Bread of Life, the Holy Foods that will enable a Rebirth for the Very Ancient One made possible by the Transfiguration of our vehicles.

Firstly got to say I'm really sorry to everyone if I get my words a little mixed up whilst writing my answer to this question. It is a question that stirs so many feelings inside me, but I have yet to put into words how to express these feelings.
I also have to add that my answer is not a "poor me" kinda answer. I guess just an honest answer from the heart.
When my Mum was was told she had Cancer I was the only person who she would allow to be told the severity of her illness. After just 6 short weeks, the words "pathway to death" once again reared it's ugly head. This time though both my brother and myself were taken into a room separately and asked the same question.
As I write this, my stomach is knotted. These two decisions have been the worst decisions both my brother and myself have had to make. Nothing will ever feel as painful as this for us both, never.
wow, being from the other side of the pond that stirs some thoughts, I had never heard the phrase, pathway to death. Sounds like a step further than what we call hospice care. I think we need something more for people who would face a cruel death otherwise.
From my reading it seemed like it was a medical decision and part of the treatment process to put someone on the pathway to death then withdraw life saving treatments. It is almost the same as hospice but done in the hospital, quite controversial it seems. I watched someone die from Parkinson's disease. I would never want to die like that but I would want to make the decision and not the doctor.
My Mum was in a hospice and she was put on the pathway. In my Mums case she was given higher dosages closer together to take away the pain.
I have a vivid image of Mum's last night at the Hospice. I stayed wit Had to tell her it was ok to go before she left me. the image is so crystal clear it could have been this morning. Not religious, but I do believe that my Mum and Dad are together again which has helped me cope massively. </s> Agency.

AS THE mainstream political parties reel from Ukip's surge, Conservatives are re-focusing onBoosting apprenticeships will benefit youngsters and the economy[PA]
We don't want another coalition with the Lib Dems. We don't need a pact with Ukip. To win, we must revive and lead the unbeatable alliance that combines our natural middle-class supporters with the aspirational working-class voters who share our values but need to know the party of Margaret Thatcher is still on their side.
The issue of immigration can't be ignored. Home Secretary Theresa May has done an impressive job controlling immigration from outside the EU. Nevertheless to cut total net immigration to tens of thousands, we'll need to reintroduce some controls on EU immigration.
For all Nigel Farage's crowing, only the Tories can deliver that, either by renegotiating the rules on free movement or, if that proves unachievable, offering voters the chance to leave the EU in a referendum.
We must appeal across class, community to those who share our belief
HOWEVER, the Conservatives still need to seal the deal with those on lower and middling incomes who have been hardest hit. They are our people. They need to know we're offering them a return on the sacrifices |

Several years ago I struck up a conversation with a random person on a dancefloor in Sydney. Her name was Kobie, and she was the DJ's girlfriend. The DJ was playing a live set of dark psy.
The girl's name is still Kobie, she is still Rory's girlfriend, but since then they have relocated to Byron Bay, Rory has released numerous tracks as well as his own album, Revolved, and together Rory and Kobie have brought baby Arlo into the world.
What were you doing before you sat down to answer these questions?
I was just walking around my property picking dandelion flowers to prepare for a floral wine. Oh, and dealing with a teething baby.
When did you adopt the name Satori, and what were your reasons for doing it?
I first came across the concept of Satori while reading a book about Zen Buddhism, at the same time my partner was reading a fantasy novel where the main character was named Satori. In Zen Buddhism, satori refers to the experience of Kensho, or seeing into one’s true nature. It is often translated as a sudden, momentary glimpse of enlightenment.
This was the idea I wanted to convey through my music. I love the way that dancing for hours in the middle of the bush can help you work through things and can lead to many little awakenings and I really needed to help facilitate that for others through my music.
No. I have had interest in religions but purely out of curiosity. I would consider myself agnostic; I don’t think anyone really has all the answers. I would actually be happy if all religion was wiped from the earth tomorrow and we just started from scratch, simply living in harmony with each other and nature. We seem to have a real need to be told what to think and it would be great if we could collectively rise above that and start thinking for ourselves.
You moved from Sydney to the far north NSW coast a couple of years ago. What prompted that move?
I was working in Sydney as a gardener, it was real heavy labour type work, and I decided I wanted more from life than that. I wanted to go and study something, so I decided to study Medicinal Science with the goal to be an Osteopath. There are only three schools in Australia that teach Osteopathy, two are in Melbourne and the other is in Lismore. Originally I was going to go to Melbourne because I just love that city and having spent four years there I was missing it. But Sydney kind of wore me out, it’s such a fast paced life living in a city and both Kobie and I decided we wanted a shift in the pace, so we chose to come to the northern rivers.
How are you finding life up there?
I love it! We live on a few acres in the hills behind Byron Bay, we have 10 chickens, an orchard and vege garden. There are koalas in our backyard, echidnas, all sorts of snakes, bandicoots and possums. We have views over the Nightcap Ranges which is home to some of the most magical pristine pockets of wilderness I have ever seen. It is an amazing place to live. It’s hard when it comes to earning a living though, not much work here. But that’s all right if you can live cheaply and don’t have any vices.
There has been some serious trouble at doofs in this region for the last few years. Basically there is nothing for young kids to do around here so they go to doofs. It’s amazing how young the crowds are up here. The violence is a big problem. There has been a lot of stabbings, lots of robberies and lots of predatory behaviour. It has kind of become too much. I mean, an AK47 was pulled out at a new years party in 2011/12!
I wouldn’t feel safe taking my family to most doofs in this region, but there are exceptions and lately I have heard some good things have been happening, so there is still hope. Everything goes in cycles and I hope it returns to the once loving party scene it was.
You've had a recent addition to the family. Do you manage to get out to party or play much at the moment?
I am still taking a few bookings to play, but that is really the only time I get out to doofs these days. I am really looking forward to taking Arlo (my son) to a party. I think his first one will be Moontopia in QLD at the end of this year.
How has being a new father affected your production output? Do you still produce as much as you did before fatherhood?
Surprisingly I have written some of my best music since he was born. It’s all written late at night with headphones on, but I think my output is still the same, if not better than before he was born. It’s hard to juggle uni, a family, and an artistic pursuit but with some good time management it can be done. You have to really use your time wisely when you have a child so if anything it has made me more productive overall.
I hear Arlo gets into your dark psy. Is he still into it?
Ha! Yes, he loves it. He can be screaming wildly and I’ll put on the fastest, most crazy darkpsy I can find and he just zones right out. If I put on prog he screams louder. Definitely not a fan of prog.
What other styles of music does he react to and what are those reactions?
I sat down with him one day just after he was born and started running through styles of music. He likes melodic psy, stuff like Talpa, and he really likes folk music. He seemed to be a bit spun out by jazz, I put on some Miles Davis and he started to look around with a strange expression and act all scattered. But most other styles really calm him down these days. He is a natural music lover! It’s been a real buzz watching a human hear music for the first time.
What other styles of music are you into, both for listening pleasure and production?
Why does dark psy do it for you more than other styles of music?
Dark psy for me is the ultimate dancefloor music. The drive and power it has is perfect for long energetic dancefloor sessions. It is music that is not about social interaction or standing around bopping away with a beer in your hand, but about full trance experience. It really allows me to go deep inside myself, leave my mind behind and lead with my soul. It’s all about balance though, I really feel the need for the melodic side of psy after a good night stomp.
When did your love affair with music begin and what brought it about?
I was immersed in music from birth. My father has this amazing record collection, lots of old jazz, blues and rock. I grew up listening to some really obscure music from the 60s and I became obsessed with those records. I remember sitting there reading the covers and memorising the artists. That music from my early years was such an important part of my life. I don’t understand people who don’t like music. In fact I don’t trust people who tell me they don’t like music.
Judging from some recent comments from you, I would assume that you're a bit jaded with the psytrance scene. Is that a correct assumption?
It is I guess. I feel it has lost a lot of its original intention. It seems to be more about getting messy these days. It used to be about the cathartic experience the music could facilitate. It was primal. The music has become a bit stale for me, I don’t see much innovation in the Australian psytrance scene. We seem to like dubstep and glitch hop a bit too much as well. But there are still parties that I feel are getting it right and I still love getting out and having a weekend at a doof, just got to pick the right ones these days.You've put on many parties in the past. Any intentions of doing it again in the future?
There has been talk with a friend of throwing one up here to try and combat the lack of anything experimental and psychedelic. I hope it comes about.
What occupies your time when you are not making music? I think you are studying and making booze and cheese, correct?
Correct. I have been making cheese, and trying my hand at brewing beer and wine. Study takes up a lot of my time but when I can I try to get out into nature and do a bit of bush walking and camping. I am also very keen on growing vegies, and I have a bonsai collection so gardening also takes up a bit of my time.
We've had a few robust discussions about conspiracy theories and the state of the world. I'm curious about how you feel about bringing a new human into the world given the state it's in.
For many years I was adamant I would not have a child because I saw the world as hopeless. I thought bringing a child into this world would be cruel. But then I started seeing friends have children and watching them raise very conscious, aware children made me realise that the world's hope lies in the hand of the next generation and the best thing I could do for the world was to instil my child with the knowledge of how to live in harmony with nature and all Earth's inhabitants.I am actually very hopeful about the state of the world right now. I see revolution happening everywhere. It is an exciting time to be alive.
When writers write or painters paint, it's often to express certain feelings or convey certain messages. Music can do the same, but it can also be more abstract. It can be more an ornamental thing, the stuff we dance to. What does music mean to you? What motivates you to make music?
Music is life for me, I couldn’t imagine existence without it. It can give me energy, bring me to tears or lull me to sleep. Certain songs can transport me through time to a place I once stood, or to a future I can envision. I have always used music creation as a way to tell my story and release my creative essence. I just feel a real need to write music and I don’t think it will ever stop.
I like listening to the occasional track of yours, but for the dancefloor it's too fast for me. Are you ever tempted by less BPMs?
I try to write slower psytrance occasionally, but the tempo always creeps up to about 170 bpm. Whenever I write any other style of psy it’s not long before it has transformed into superfast darkpsy. I’m not sure why that is.
And as I finish writing that question I'm listening to one of your chill tracks, Peace Of Mind. Love it. Do you make many chill tunes?
Yes, I have been experimenting making some slower, more abstract tunes. I want to create a kind of lush, cinematic, dreamy deep techno project sometime in the future.
As a creator of good music, how much do you hate dubstep? Or are you one of those misguided people who thinks dubstep is good? Not being biased here, I just... yeah, biased as hell. I just don't get dubstep.
Do you get out on the dancefloor yourself? Who do you like to dance to?
Yes, I love dancing. If I am at a party I will spend 90% of the time on the dancefloor if the tunes are good. Music-wise I like intelligent programming. I have had amazing dance experiences to international artists like Kindzadza, Penta, Electrypnose, and Kashyyk.
On the local front Dark Nebula never disappoints.
What are your plans for the future, both musically and personally?
I am currently writing my second album, and have a couple of compilation releases planned for the next few months. I hope to keep building my music career and get overseas at some point to perform. want to finish my degree and see where that takes me. I want to spend as much quality time being in love with my girlfriend Kobie and my son Arlo. I want to re-connect with nature, and build towards a self-sustaining future for my family. And I want to be happy and live a simple life amongst the trees.

en | N/A | N/A | A perfect start to the year for Ogilvy
Published: Wednesday, February 17, 2010 DOUG FERGUSON
MARANA, Ariz. - Geoff Ogilvy hasa month. His heart is still at home, where his wife gave birth to their third child less than a week ago.

At any other tournament, it might not be the ideal preparation to defend a title.
The Match Play Championship is different.
Ogilvy came to this event in 2006 at La Costa feeling good about his game. Ten times that week, he watched an opponent stand over a putt to eliminate him. By the end of the week, he was holding the trophy.
A year ago at Dove Mountain, he wasn't sure he could get his first tee shot in the fairway. He struggled through the first two rounds, got better as the week went on, and in the championship match felt it was the best he had ever played.
That's how it is in golf's most fickle format.
Ogilvy is among three champions who were not among the top 50 seeds. He was No. 52 when he won in 2006, while Steve Stricker was No. 55 in 2001 and Kevin Sutherland was No. 62 a year later.
Stricker remembers what it was like to go to Australia in 2001 as one of the higher seeds. He asked a couple of caddies if they were interested in working for him, and they all turned him down. Stricker wound up taking a friend from Wisconsin, Tom Mitchell, then mowed down six guys to win the title.
Even as the No. 1 seed, his expectations aren't much different.
"I don't think you can look past anyone in this tournament," Stricker said.
For him, that starts with Ross McGowan of England, in the first round. Lee Westwood is the No. 2 seed and plays Chris Wood in an All-England match, while third-seeded Jim Furyk plays former Ryder Cup teammate Scott Verplank and fourth-seeded Martin Kaymer faces Chad Campbell.
Ogilvy, who won the season-opening PGA Tour event at Kapalua, is the No. 10 seed and opens with Alexander Noren of Sweden.
Even though Woods has won this tournament three times, no one has a higher winning percentage than Ogilvy. Along with his two victories, he lost in the championship match three years ago and was beaten in the first round in 2008.
"This, if you have a bad first nine holes, suddenly you're out. Bye. See you," Ogilvy said. "It's a tournament that you almost can't have result expectations. You can feel good about your game. But I don't think you're in complete control at the end of the week."
If he loses early, it would not be all bad.
wife Juliel. A son, Harvey Jack, was born on Feb. 11.
"Everyone is happy and healthy, everyone is perfect," he said. "I feel like I've continued my offseason, and this is almost the start of it. It's been really a nice three weeks. I spent it at home with my kids. They got to meet their new brother and stuff. I'm coming here pretty refreshed, so I'm ready to go."
He can only hope he's not leaving sooner than he wants.
Ogilvy is among the few players who have bothered to study the brackets, or at least confessed to looking at them. He tried to figure out which quadrant had the strongest road to the semifinals, only to realize none was particularly easy.

Proudly Supporting High School Musical Arts Since 2010
Since 2010 the Cleveland High School (CvHS) Band program has provided an excellent music program and learning opportunity for its students. As a part of the CvHS Fine Arts program it continues the commitment to high school Fine Arts and Music Programs known throughout the county. The band also continues the traditions established at Cleveland High School (1926-1969); which our school was named after. CvHS band students come from the following Middle Schools: Clayton, Cleveland and McGees.
Classes began in the Fall of 2010 with the opening of the new Cleveland High School. However, even before there were classrooms CvHS principal Ms. Anne Meredith brought a sense of reality to the program in September 2009 when she shared her vision of the program with the students that would become the first band class and their parents. That first class consisted of students in the ninth and tenth grade.
The band has two academic courses (Marching Band and Concert Band) and offers extra-curricular courses (Winterguard, Winter Winds and Indoor Percussion). The students perform, exhibit, and compete at various events at the local, state and regional level.
We are proud to have Mr. Jason Heard as the Band Director at CvHS.
Great bands start with Great Instructors
Mr. Heard holds both a Bachelor’s and Master’ Degree in Music from East Carolina University.
Throughout his career he has helped to lead and guide band students to give their best while having fun. The band programs where he served have received numerous awards. |

en | N/A | N/A | The Oils of Ancient Scripturethe rose of Sharone oils came packaged in such a cute box so I had high hopes for them right off the bat. I have been searching all over for the perfect product to work for my diffuser that would give off a strong enough scent and also fall within my price range. This was definitely it. They all smell lovely and I was quite pleased to find that all bottles were sealed tightly without any leaks. It was definitely a satisfying buy.
I give it 10 stars. Purchase other oils and was not happy with the quality of the oil. It’s not how much it cost. it’s about the quality of oil and the smell and the purpose of oil. I found Young Living’s oil the best over all others. Will keep ordering this brand. No more searching for other brands. I found it. There are a lot of expensive essential oils on the market. This Oils of Ancient Scripture has great quality oils that smell amazing. The price and quality are worth the purchase. I will definitely be making more purchasing more products from Young Living. |

en | N/A | N/A | I picked up a pair of these in the box like new at a garage sale for $50. I figured I would flip them for $80-$100 because of their vintage and mint condition.
! they were amazing. Great mids and highs like i hvaen't heard before and even the bass out of the small 5-6" driver was amazing.
I sold my cherry $400 polk rti-a3s that i loved.
Finish clean all around enclosure. Resale price ridiculously low for performance. High quality drivers. Polite for neighbors. Sweet looking grill and logos.
Why don't they make these any more?
As a dweller in attached housing, I have learned how to avoid annoying the neighbors while playing back music at decently loud levels. Front-ported speakers direct more of the bass frequencies to the listener, and if you can find a pair of bookshelf speakers that don't need a subwoofer, all the better. I had a pair of floor-standing Bostons that shook the walls, and I had to turn them down so far as to make them useless--the Boston cr95 were good speakers, but they were too boomy for common walls. I have a classic pair of EPI 70's that have an incredible liquid midrange--wow! But they have no bass response to speak of, and are only really useful for light jazz (how sweeet they are with that!).
So anyway, to get on point here, I bought these Infinity 325's on ebay for eighty bucks plus shipping--about one thirty in all. Good Lord they sound awesome! They are double ported on the front so the listener gets all the bass, which is substantial with the six and a half inch mid-woofers. These are musical speakers, and I love the treble too. I think soft fabric tweets usually perform better than metal, and these babies make the argument for me. These can rock and roll, and lay out smooth jazz and classical as well.
Very clear and capable of producing extended frequencies in the upper end. High quality drivers not available in present day.
Buy them for musical detail not to rock the house. They sound best at low to medium volumes. Only weakness is you cannot really crank them but most quality music is heard at normal volumes and these are superb.
I have gone through a lot of speakers in my life time. I had a unique child hood seeing that my Father and Grand Father were Manufacturer reps for audio equipment companies with lines such as Rotel, HK, Pioneer, Technics, and many other very good companies of past eras. I should mention that all of the companies have gone down hill in the last 20 years so you can presume that most things are I listened to all of this equipment since a very early age and have built and designed speakers also for the last 20 years or so. My grandfather owned a speaker company for many years (Christy Speakers) named after his Grand daughter (my sister).
I have the ear for sound and can tell very small differences in frequencies especially the higher frequencies. I like the RS 325 because of their ability to produce very clean and precise high frequencies. If I had to put a number on where they shine it would be the 10 KHz and above. Every one hears differently and many cannot tell the difference from one speaker to the next but I can tell you these are very good quality and the phase plug design of the woofer is unique as well. Only very high quality drivers use this design. I believe it aids in giving a very clear mid frequency response (admitting I do not know the exact science on this design). Do not pass up the chance to have these if you want good quality. I consider the price I paid to be fair for a great condition set. I also have a set of the RS 425 and RS 525 which are similar but better on the lower frequencies. You should do well to pick up any of these for the $200 - $500 range on Ebay or other sources.
None needed to this point. If you buy a good product it is normally not needed.
Very good bass, excellent midrange, and brilliant highs. Little or no colouration or artificial enhancement of sound. Replacement rubber woofer surrounds are available if and when these parts ever wear out.
! T! Nothing in this size or original price range that I have seen can compare!
Clean, crisp, clear and tight sound.
They will wear out (some day).
I'm just an old country boy, I've honestly never heard a cleaner more crisp sounding speaker. I can't wait to get an Infinity center to match.
Wonderful dynamic range.
I use these as the surround speakers in a Dolby Digital setup along with RS-625s as the front units. They add a tremendous amount of ambiance, and truly show their colors on the Video Essentials test disc.
We also have the RS-225s, which my son uses as "color' in his stereo set-up. He is very pleased with their durability.
Since they are discontinued, a very good deal could be had for the $ if you can find them.
Radio Shack Nova-7s.
I've bought my Infinity RS-325s over 7 years ago just because they were affordable at the Price club. However, after shopping for new speakers for the last 2 years, I'm convinced that these are some of the best speakers you can find -- period. Especially in the price range they originally sold.
They faithfully reproduce sound, and have amazing clarity. I've got an older receiver, (about 8 years old), and even with those the sound is much warmer and clear than alot of the new setups I've heard. I've just ordered a Sony DB930, and I can't wait to hear my speakers on them.
Too bad Infinity doesn't make them anymore, because I'd buy another pair on the spot.
I have a friend in Vallejo who needed a large number of smallish but good quality speakers to fill up all the jacks on his Yamaha DSP-1070 amplifier. This amp has dual centers as well as the proprietary Yamaha front effects channels. My friend Mike was very concerned about "timbre" matching, which some folks place great stock in. Thus he wanted the same speakers at all corners. We found the RS-325's at both Circuit City and Pearson's Audio Video in our area. These speakers have several interesting features. Most significant, they were one of the first to utillize a conical cap on the woofer to reduce distortion and buzzing as the woofer gets to the upper end of its operating range. Fancier brands like Monitor Audio are now doing the same thing. Also, these speakers have dual ports on the front, not unlike what Polk later used on their RT series. Rather astonishing is these speakers rating of 150 watts power handling capacity, which is a lot for a 6&1/2" two way system in this price range. The 325's have a very good polycell tweeter for clear highs, and not bad bass, due to the ports and pretty good size cabinet for the driver compliment. Mike has five pairs working on the amp, with dual powered subs, which gives a nice and powerful sound field, provided the delay times and volumne levels are set right, which takes some attention on the big Yamahas. This is a great speaker for the price, made while Infinity was turning out good speakers, and not the plastic stuff produced since the Harmon International takeover/assimilation. If you can find a pair on the used market and need a very good speaker either by themselves or when combined with a good sub, will fill a reasonable-sized room. The quality is good for the price, with a clear and defined sound. If you are looking for a more current product in this category, try Paradigm Titans, or NHT models or similar, as the lower end of the new Infinity line has suffered considerably in quality/design/performance. For more pricey models, the B&W 602 (3?) series and the Monitor Audio will nicely fill the ticket. Enjoy!
No longer available. Otherwise, none that I can think of now.
I have to agree with you all on the RS325's, they are a great speaker for the money. I purchased these about 7 or 8 years ago at the Good Guys. I compared them to speakers that were quite a bit more expensive and the Infinity's came out on top. Imagine my surprise when I hooked them up to my new A/V receiver and got terrific sound from them. I wasn't happy with the cheap speakers that came with my home theater system - the RS325 are a great improvement. Power handling is great and they produce a full, rich sound. I had been using the JBL 2600's and the JBL's really fall short in comparison. The Infinity's have much better base response and a more natural sounding midrange. The JBL's were a bit "edgy or tinny" sounding in the midrange. I'm very happy with these speakers. |

en | N/A | N/A | In the winter of 2016 I began traveling to states throughout the US, exploring the phenomenon of home sharing. I created a Facebook page, I joined home sharing groups, and I posted inquiries, in an attempt to meet Airbnb Hosts, and interview them for my project.
I was surprised by the amount of responses that I received from Airbnb hosts who were interested in sharing their stories. So, After a series of Facebook messages and phone calls to confirm dates and to discuss any particulars.. I packed my bags (1 backpack filled with camera gear, and 1 backpack filled with clothes) and I hit the road.
Oh, I forgot to mention that I quit my job, and have been traveling and staying in Airbnbs throughout many states using my savings, a credit card, and the generosity of some amazing hosts.
John - Airbnb Host, Louisville,KY
On December 10th, I drove to Louisville,KY to meet with and interview Airbnb Host John Mahorney. I arrived in Louisville just after 1:00 o'clock, and called John to find out when and where he wanted to meet. John suggested meeting for lunch at a place named Hammerheads, which is in an area of town known as Paristown Point. John and I sat around inside of the establishment discussing my project, and his passion & love for his hometown of Louisville,KY.
**Thank you to John for agreeing to an interview for my project, and for treating me to lunch while I was in Louisville.
Melissa - Airbnb Host, New Albany,IN
Later that evening I drove about 20 minutes outside of Louisville, to a lil town named New Albany, IN. I had booked a night's stay through Airbnb, and also arranged an interview with my host Melissa Meyer. I arrived around 9:30 that evening, after getting a flat tire, and having to wait nearly 3 hrs for roadside assistance come and put on a spare tire. (if you are wondering why I didn't change it myself.. well, it was a rental car, and for some reason there was not a jack or tire iron in the trunk.) Anyway, Melissa met me at the door when I arrived, and she felt so sorry for what I had gone through, that she offered me the LARGE bedroom on the 1st floor of her big beautiful home. The next morning Melissa gave me a tour of their 26 room home, which had cats, a new puppy, and a few chicks being hatched in a bedroom upstairs. After the tour I convinced her to put on something warm, so that I could interview her outside (it was in the 30's this day) on their spacious upstairs porch. Once the interview concluded, we went back inside to warm up. While inside, Melissa offered me some coffee or juice to drink.. and even scrambled some eggs for me to eat before I packed up to leave.
**Thank you to Melissa for allowing me to sleep in the BIG room during my stay at her home, and for being such a natural & comfortable host.
Lori - Airbnb Host, Indianapolis,IN
I left New Albany early that morning, and I continued on to Indianapolis, Indiana to stay with Airbnb Host Lori for 2 days.. and to catch a Colt's football game. I arrived in Indianapolis (which was raining & cold when I got there) around 12:40p, in just enough time to find parking, and walk the 3 blocks to get to the stadium before the 1 o'clock kickoff. After the game, I drove to Lori's house and waited for her to get home.. as it turned out, she was also at the Colt's game with some friends. Once she got home, we chatted for a bit about my project, and about her children and family. She offered me a little of her homemade crockpot meal that she had prepared earlier in the week.. and I gladly accepted. (Free Food!.. YES!) During our conversation I noticed that although she seemed comfortable, and had no problem engaging in an enjoyable discussion about random topics.. she may not be totally open to being interviewed on camera. So, through some carefully measured persuasion.. The very next morning I convinced Lori to sit down in her living room, and share her hosting story. As it turned out, Lori was witty, charming, and seemingly at ease in front of the camera, as she told funny stories and gave honest answers to my questions regarding her hosting experience with Airbnb.
**Thank you to Lori for overcoming her fears, and agreeing to be a part of my project.
Valerie - Former Airbnb Host, Chicago,IL
I continued my journey north to Chicago.. but, not before driving through snow and ice, cars skidding into one another, accidents on the expressway, and traffic moving at 15 mph on I-65 in Indianapolis. Nonetheless, I managed to drive the nearly 4 hrs to Chicago, and arrived safely without incident.. or accident. (Phew!..) When I reached Chicago, I called Valerie to find out where I should park, since I would be staying in the city for a couple of days. Valerie suggested that I meet her in front of her building, and she would ride with me to a nearby parking garage blocks away. After parking the car, I gathered my 2 bags and we walked a few blacks to Valerie's condo, where we talked for a lil bit, before heading out to walk to her office, which is about 20 minutes away in downtown Chicago. Once we arrived at her office, Valerie was gracious enough to give me a tour of the office space, and also found a nice cozy lounge area where I could set up my camera equipment, and have her share her Airbnb hosting story. Later that afternoon Valerie's organization "Keep Chicago Livable" was hosting a gathering for Airbnb Hosts in the area, and she invited me to attend their event. While there, I took advantage of the opportunity to ask hosts if they would like to be interviewed for my documentary. Surprisingly, everyone I asked said yes.. So I commandeered an empty lounge area, set up my equipment, and began asking questions and listening to stories for the rest of the evening.
**Thank you to Valerie for inviting me to stay at her home for 2 days, and for introducing me to all of the wonderful hosts & individuals who were a part of my project.
Kim & David - Airbnb Hosts, Otto,NC
I woke up at 4:00am the next morning to get an early start for my 11 hr drive to North Carolina. I was really looking forward to my next location, because I LOVE the mountains, and I was gonna have an opportunity to be a "Mountain Man" for a day. Sleeping in a cabin, staying warm by burning wood in a wood burning stove, foraging for critters to stay alive.. okay, that last part isn't true.. but there were free range chickens on the property, and plenty of newly hatched eggs. Anyway, after driving through several states, I finally made it to the lovely lil town of Otto, NC. My GPS directed me to a long, winding dirt road that led me to "Tranquility Ridge", which is what my hosts Kim & David have named their beautiful mountain property. As I drove up the driveway, I was met by a huge barking dog named Otto who ran alongside of the car, and playfully bounced around it as I tried to keep from running him over. (lol)
I parked my car beside the guest cabin, and walked up the driveway to the main house, where Kim & David were inside cooking dinner and awaiting my arrival. Kim and I had been messaging back & forth during my trip, as I updated them on my ETA.. and, she was nice enough to invite me to have dinner with them that evening. They were also so kind as to have a fire started in the wood burning stove inside of my cabin. (which was helpful, because it was gonna be 20 degrees that night). David walked me to the cabin, pointed out everything that a "Mountain Man" would need to know about staying the night at their property.. keeping a fire burning in the stove, extra wood outside on the porch, items for preparing breakfast the next morning, wifi password.. you know.. all of the things that a true rugged outdoorsman would need for survival. Aaanywhoooo.. had a wonderful time eating dinner with Kim & David, chatting about a variety of topics, and getting to know one another. The next morning, I cooked myself some pancakes and eggs, got dressed and waited for Kim & David to get prepared for their interview.
**Thank you to Kim & David for inviting me to visit their cabin, agreeing to be a part of my project, and allowing me to stay at their property free of charge. They were, and are tremendously nice and genuine people, who made me feel very welcomed during my time with them.
Rachel - Airbnb Host, Baltimore,MD
After taking a break for the holidays (Christmas Day), I was back on the road! This time I was driving to Baltimore,MD to meet and stay with Rachel, who had contacted me on Facebook, and invited me to interview her, and to stay at her home for 2 days. She also helped in arranging interviews with several other Airbnb hosts in the Baltimore area. Not to mention, convincing her boyfriend's parents (who are also Airbnb Hosts in NC) to invite me to stay at their home and interview them as well.
I arrived in Baltimore around Noon on Tuesday, December 27th. Rachel had made plans to take me on a tour of her city that afternoon. First of all.. Rachel is a ball of energy! She is a non stop motion of walking, talking, planning, moving, more talking, more doing.. I was worn out just standing there lol. But, I must also state that she is without a doubt, one of the nicest people that I've met during my travels. She took me to the Lexington Market in downtown Baltimore, where there were dozens of shops & restaurants, lots of history, and is the home of "Faidley's Seafood", which is where we had lunch that day. Later that evening (after she was nice enough to take me on a driving tour of the city), we picked up her boyfriend Christopher, and we all went out for dinner at "Cafe Hon", which is in the Hampden area of Baltimore. The next day, Rachel and I went out into the courtyard area of her home, and conducted a portion of her interview.
**A Thank you goes out to all of the hosts who agreed to being interviewed. And, a special Thank you to Rachel for inviting me into her home, not charging me to stay in her gorgeous basement apartment for 2 days, treating me to breakfast, lunch & dinner while I was there, and for being a super tour guide. Encounters such as these reinforces my belief in the kindness of strangers, and empowers me to want to keep going.. meet more people, create social interaction, and remain open to all possibilities. And more importantly.. follow my intuition, step out there and trust that my spirit of positivity will guide me in the right direction.
Dick & BeBe - Airbnb Hosts, Gibsonville,NC
My next visit was gonna be my last one before the New Year (2017!.. Whoop,Whoop!). I woke up super early the next morning (after getting to bed around 12:30), packed up the car, and hopped onto I-85 South toward NC. It was raining in Baltimore (I hate driving in the rain,ughh), but by the time i'd driven the 5 1/2 hrs it took to get to NC, the rain had gone away, and it was a beautiful sunny & chilly day in the "Tar Heel State".
I called my Hosts to let them know that is was nearby, and would be arriving at their home within minutes. Dick was away on a business trip across town, but BeBe was there to greet me at the door. BeBe invited me in, asked me to remove my shoes (They have a Hawaiian theme/custom in their home), and offered me something to eat and drink. She directed me to the kitchen, showed me where all of the items and utensils were, and instructed me to help myself to whatever it was that I wanted to prep for breakfast. I made some oatmeal & tea as BeBe and I talked about traveling, interracial relationships, how she and Dick met, past relationships, her son's new girlfriend.. and, a bunch of interesting topics. BeBe then took me on a tour of their big beautiful home, and had me select the room of my choice from the 3 upstairs bedrooms that they offer to their Airbnb guests. About an hour or so later Dick arrives from his business meeting. We sit around and talk some more, then BeBe asks me if I would join them for wine & cheese with a couple of their friends later that afternoon. I replied, "Heck Yeah" (Free snacks & wine.. Nice!), so I took a shower, changed clothes, and I headed back downstairs where I discussed with my hosts the best place to conduct their interview. BeBe chose the dining room table as the best place to start.. though, we then moved to several other locations in their home, including the kitchen, which is where they shared a portion of their Airbnb hosting story.
**I must mention that Dick & BeBe were excellent hosts while I was at their home. They invited me to stay there free of charge, took me out for a Mexican dinner while I was there, and made me feel like I was a part of the family. They are phenomenal ambassadors of Airbnb, the state of North Carolina, and of humanity. I sincerely appreciate their generosity and hospitality. MAHALO!
On Tuesday January 17th, I traveled to Tampa, Florida to meet with and interview Zakiyyah Myers, who is the Co-Founder of a new home sharing platform named Innclusive.com. I was told about Innclusive.com by someone that I had befriended on Twitter a few weeks before my trip. So, I decided to send out a request via twitter to the good folks of Innclusive.com, asking if they would agree to being interviewed for my documentary. Within a couple of days, I had received a response from Zakiyyah, stating that she would be interested in being a part of my project. She was super nice, and invited me to come down to Tampa, and to stay at their Innclusive.com home while I was there conducting the interview.
During my visit, I met several Innclusive.com team members, as well as the mastermind behind this burgeoning new venture Rohan Gilkes. Rohan was a little too busy, and shy to appear on camera during my time at the Innclusive.com home.. though, he was cordial and welcoming while I was there.
Topaz - Airbnb Host, St.Petersburg,FL
My next stop while I was in the area, was the St. Peace House Co-Op in St. Petersburg, Florida. I had discovered the St. Peace House while I was searching for unique Airbnb places to visit in Florida. I contacted Topaz weeks before arriving in the area, and asked if she would be available to tell me more about the St. Peace House, and the things that they do in the community.
I arrived at the St. Peace House just before noon on wednesday, after driving 30 minutes or so from the Innclusive.com home in New Tampa, FL. It wasn't hard to find the St. Peace House, as there is a huge "Peace Sign" painted on the outside of the structure, which is located on the corner of a busy street directly across from Bartlett Park. So, I parked my car, prepped my camera gear, and walked up to the house and started knocking on doors, in an attempt to gain access to their Co-Op facility. After a lil while of walking around the outside of the building, and trying to get someone's attention.. Topaz popped out of one of the many doors, and greeted me.
She was the perfect type of person to interview. She spoke very clearly, her voice projected, and as a creator of several Co-Ops, she knew absolutely EVERYTHING there was to know about the St. Peace House.
Dora - Airbnb Host, Tampa,FL
After leaving the St. Petersburg area, it was time to meet with another Airbnb host whom I had contacted that morning. Her name was Dora, and she was a fairly new host with Airbnb. Dora lives and hosts in Tampa, and had agreed to meet with me that afternoon at Panera Bread near her home, downtown. After a series of messages, Dora and I met at Panera Bread, where we enjoyed bowls of soup with bread, while discussing my project, her hosting experiences and a variety of related topics. Once we were done eating and getting acquainted, we decided to drive to a nearby park to conduct Dora's interview (I never asked why we couldn't conduct the interview at her home.. I just respected her privacy, and agreed to her requests regarding the interview).
Dora was extremely sweet, as we walked the park to find a suitable place to set up and start the interview. She talked about religion, family, travel, and a variety of topics as I prepared my equipment. We settled onto a park bench in the sun,(Dora insisted that she sat in an area with plenty of direct sunlight) as I began asking her questions, and at the same time, attempted to make her feel comfortable with the entire process. Dora was very gracious in agreeing to meet with me and take part in my documentary. She could have at any point changed her mind and decided to NOT be a part of my project, but she instead chose to continue, and to share her Airbnb hosting story. And, I am grateful that she did!
Julio - Couch Surfing Host, Tampa,FL
Now it was time to meet the person who would be hosting my very 1st Couch Surfing experience. I had been corresponding with Julio on Couchsurfing.com, since he had responded to my request to stay with local Couch Surfers in the Tampa area. Julio was the only person to accept my request to stay at their home while I was in Tampa. I had gotten plenty of Couch Surfing Hosts who declined my stay.. some giving explanations as to why they were declining, and others just declining without giving a reason. I figured that since I was new to Couch Surfing, and didn't have many references, friends or experiences.. it would be difficult to find a host. So I wasn't bothered by the CS Hosts who refused to accept my requests to stay at their homes.
I have to admit.. I was a lil nervous staying in a stranger's home "For Free"! I have stayed in MANY Airbnb homes with total strangers, but, this felt a little different. Probably because I couldn't quite figure out the motivation behind CS Hosts who allow you to stay, without having to pay. Nevertheless, I went to Walmart to buy a pillow before arriving at Julio's apartment in the UT University District of Tampa.
When I pulled in front of Julio's place, he came out to my car to meet & greet me. We walked inside of Julio's apartment, where I met his 12 year old son Julio,Jr, who was sitting at the dining room table doing his homework. After exchanging pleasantries and getting a tour of his home, we took a drive to the UT Campus, which is located near the water, in a beautiful area just minutes away from Julio's place. Since it was a gorgeous sunny day, I decided to conduct the interview in an area that provides a scenic view of the downtown Tampa landscape.
Todd - Couch Surfing Host, Tampa,FL
While Julio and I were driving around downtown Tampa on a lil tour of the city, I received a message from Todd. Todd is a CS Host who declined my stay at his home, but agreed to doing an interview for my project. He was informing me that he would be available that afternoon, until 6:30p for an interview. It was 4:45 or so at that time, and I'd have to drive nearly 40 minutes, through rush hour traffic to make it to his home in the allotted time. Julio drove back to his place, where I hopped in my car and began the drive to interview Todd at his home in another area of Tampa. I managed to make it to Todd's place in plenty of time to meet his family members and children who were visiting at the time, before going outside in the pool area of his home to conduct the interview.
Todd shared stories about his introduction to Couch Surfing, his divorce from his wife, and his marriage to his husband Michael. He was very open and friendly, as we chatted about a variety of topics that afternoon, and into the early evening. Todd apologized for being as he stated "Hyper and Talkative".. though, I assured him that I appreciated the fact that he was talkative. I love it when I can ask 1 question, and my interviewees will answer that 1 question, and then transition into an area of discussion that leads to a more conversational style of an interview. Instead of my having to ask a bunch of questions.. just to get short compacted responses, and a more formulaic type of experience, for which I am not a fan of.
Todd was awesome! And, I appreciated his taking out time in his schedule to accommodate me, and for inviting me into his home. |

Winnie the Pooh quote- </s> .
So it's not just his mysterious birth certificate. Obama is a psychological stranger to normal American politics, and intuitively many Americans grasp that. Compare Obama to Ronald Reagan, Sarah Palin, or Herman Cain, and you get it immediately. It's just like the Sesame Street jingle, "One of these is not like the others..." Obama's differentness has nothing to do with skin color. It's his fundamental beliefs, his political style, and his personal morality. At some level everybody gets that.
But Obama is also a calculating politician. Like all running politicians, he projects complete faith that he'll win in 2012. But privately he knows perfectly well that his chances are about 50-50, and even if he wins next year, he will be out by 2016.
Remember that Obama must always expand his ego domain. He always needs a bigger stage to play on. That's the nature of his personality. If he can't expand his ego he feels crushed, worthless, and depressed. You can see it in his face when he runs into a serious roadblock. It's not hard to spot, and you can bet that every major government in the world has hired psychological teams to do it.
I believe Obama is already planning his next promotion. That's a rational political calculation, as well as fitting his personal grandiosity.
When politicians seem to endanger their self-interesttaking great personal risks to benefit others. Anwar Sadat, Pope John Paul II, and Gandhi took risksall were targeted for assassination as a result.
But that's extremely rare. Most of the time when politicians seem to risk their careers they are planning something unexpected. They might be using the audacity strategy: Surprise the hell out of the enemy -- that would be you and me, folks -- so the enemy can't do anything to stop you.
Why is Obama always bullying Americans whose support he needs for reelection? Why did he come out for the maximum anti-Israel position? Isn't that self-destructive, if he wants to be reelected in 2012?
Targeting Israel and American capitalism is the way to their hearts. It's what they all want, because Israel and America are the biggest examples of successful free nation-states today. The left want to abolish the nation-state in favor of an international imperium to be run by -- the left! Muslims want to destroy Israel for psychic revenge, and because they must own Jerusalem, just like they must own Mecca and Medina. Both sides dream of an international imperium. Radical Muslims follow a utopian imperialist creed, and so does the radical left.
The left is atheist, and has been since Karl Marx. It always harbors bitter hatred against traditional Christianity (and Orthodox Judaism). Radical Muslims want the whole world to obey Shari'ah law. The True Believers of the left don't believe a word in traditional Islam, just like they don't believe a word about Christianity, Judaism, or, for that matter, Buddhism and Hinduism. They are thorough-going atheists.
And yet the left is constantly pretending to know nothing about Islam, and Muslims are always pretending to ignore the atheistic faith of the left. But that's just the usual barefaced denialcan read, can't they? Muslim ideologues read Karl Marx, and Marxists read the Salafist and Khomeinist radicals. They know.
Since 1900 there have been plenty of Communists in the Muslim world and plenty of Muslims in the Communist and socialist world. They talk to each other all the time, and they make political deals. You scratch my back, I scratch yours. It's happening on some American college campuses today, which is why Ahmadinejad can speak at Columbia but the Israeli ambassador is heckled and booed whenever he speaks on a campus. These are not accidents.
The worldwide left-Muslim alliance wants to undermine American dominance in the post-Cold War world.
The left believes what Putin has said out loud: That the breakdown For normal people the Soviet system fell apart because it was a corrupt disaster. For the left the Soviet Union was an experiment that didn't work, and therefore has to be done over again. Never mind those 100 million innocent victims. You have to crush a lot of eggs to make this omelet. It's okay with them.
That's why Europe now has 53 million Muslims, concentrated in capital cities like London, Paris, and Berlin.
That's why Obama and the Democrats are deliberately failing to protect our borders, and suing Arizona for trying to enforce what is already federal law. To normal people that all seems self-destructive, but there's a method to their madness.
Fundamentally, Islam and the left are ideologically incompatible. The fact that they are colluding against Israel and America means that they see a short-term advantage against their |

</s> Q: How to tell Git to always pull the master branch? I find git docs very cryptic regarding this issue. I want to do a simple thing, but it seems doing it is not simple at all.
origin git://192.168.0.49/mnt/repos
I can pull from stick like this:
* [new branch] su2009 -> stick/su2009
branch.master.remote = <nickname>
Your repo's configuration file, found at .git/config at the root of your repo. (There's also a per-user global config file at ~/.gitconfig, but you don't want to put repo-specific settings there.)
# Sets stick as default remote for git pull.
# Note that origin will no longer be the default remote for git pull!
# Automatically merge in stick's master branch when doing a git pull
So now, when you do a git pull without any remote or refspec info, it'll fetch all the branches from stick, and merge in stick's master branch. Note that origin will not be the default remote anymore; to merge in origin's master branch, you'll have to use git pull origin master.

en | N/A | N/A | Australia stopped England’s winning streak
Australia put up a memorable and record-breaking performance in the ODIs at midnight on Wednesday. Chasing 303 from hosts England, Australia were 73 for five. But all-rounder Glenn Maxwell and wicketkeeper Alex Carey put on a 212-run partnership to undermine England’s dream of a series win. Australia won the match by three wickets on the strength of two brilliant centuries. With this defeat, England’s series of home victories, which started in 2015, was also broken. It is also the first time since 2017 that they have lost an ODI series. Glenn Maxwell, who scored 186 runs in the series with a century and a half-century, Australia won the series 2-1.
Maxwell, Carrie’s smashing centuries
The Kangaroos won the ODI series 2-1
Player of the Match and Series – Glenn Maxwell
Sensational partnership
Alex Carrey and Glenn Maxwell battled for the Kangaroos after failing batsmen Dodd Warner (24), Aaron Finch (12), Marvus Stoinis (4), Marnus Labushen (20) and Mitchell Marsh (2) failed. Glenn Maxwell emphasized the ‘air strikes’, while Alex Carey recovered the runs with shots on the ground. The duo put on a convincing 212-run stand to turn the match around. Alex Carey hit 106 off 114 balls with two sixes and seven fours, while Glenn Maxwell hit 108 off just 90 balls with seven sixes and four fours. Alex Carey scored his first ODI century, while Glenn Maxwell scored his second. After the two were dismissed, Mitchell Starc sealed the Kangaroos’ victory with a six and a four off Adil Rashid.
The match topped the list of most chased batsmen after five wickets were dismissed. Australia had lost five wickets in 73 overs. He then chased down 230 runs.
Baerstache century Johnny Bairstow hit 112 off two sixes and 12 fours. This was his 10th ODI century. Sam Binlags (57) and Chris Vokes (53 not out) helped England reach the 302-run mark. Australia’s Mitchell Starc sent Jason Roy on the first ball of the first over of the innings and Joe Root on the second ball into the pavilion. Adam Zampa, along with Mitchell Starc, also took three wickets.

Pharrell had invited the band to hang out at his studio and Lily Allen, a big Keane fan, had covered Somewhere Only We Know, a song which has since taken on a life of its own with a younger generation of fans.
Bassist Jesse Quin says: “It took a little while for us to start to gravitate back to each other, musically, despite being good friends and seeing each other regularly. I guess at the start of last year, Tim had written some songs for a potential solo album that he wasn’t sure about. He asked us to give us our opinions. The songs were so great. He’d been through a rough patch and his marriage had broken down. The songs were more personal and direct than anything that he’d done in the past. We had to get them out into the world. We went for lunch in a pub in Richmond and hung out for the first time and we talked about how we might come back.”
“For starters, we’d all got kids. So everything was different but nothing was different. We’d built lives for ourselves outside of Keane so it felt like the pressure was off in terms of there being goals. Before, it was about building our audience or connecting with more people. This time we didn’t have that hanging over us.”
Tim explains: “Hopes and Fears was a break-up album too, but it was about a break-up when I was 19. It’s a bit different when you’re older and you’ve got kids – your whole little world shifts on its axis.”
It became obvious that what these songs were lacking was a certain vocalist. “I wasn’t even thinking about it in terms of a new Keane record,” explains Tom, “I just wanted to sing those songs for my friend, borne out of love.” The others were worried. “I remember listening and thinking, oh shit, some of this is gonna be tough,” Jesse admits. “I wrote a note on one of them,” adds Rich, “saying, I don’t know if we can put this out there, it’s too much.”
Tom, however, absolutely believed that they should. “I I’d ever heard – but I was very drawn to that, because that’s where the good stuff is,” he says, grinning.
AndThey feel closer than before,Jesse adds: “We’re all much more comfortable about talking about things in the band. The younger mans’ way is to simmer.
“With the new record, the great thing was that Tim had actually written it before we got back together. So it wasn’t a case of having to write an album; he’d already got 30 or 40 really great demos. He’s a songwriter, that’s what he does. So we already felt like we were ahead of the game. We needed to find a producer, rather than self-produce, and we recorded it in London, which it was nice7BPK26IBCGVFPDPRGH2ZYHXQ.jpg)
Second album? That’s funny. Lest we forget, Keane’s debut album, Hopes and Fears, was a number one hit that sold 2.8 million copies in the UK and secured nine platinum discs while also breaking into the top 50 in the USA. The follow-up, Under The Iron Sea, sold three million worldwide, reached number four in the USA and number one in UK, where it achieved three platinum discs.
“I think we realised that we’re more than the sum of our parts,” says drummer Richard Hughes. “We’re not the kind of band that broke up 20 years ago and is getting back together for one last tour, or for the money – we’re not some heritage act,” says Tim. “We’ve got a lot of great music in us.”
“We feel as though you’re a separate unit because we didn’t just come and go willy nilly. We were always a great team. We had a great duty to each other and to have each other’s backs and work on our friendships. Sometimes it’s tiring when you’re sleeping 2ft apart on a tour bus and are together all day every day. We’ve all got strong live and let live mentalities. We’re quite good at not irritating each other. We see each other as people and just let each other get on with it.”
The band have been encouraged by the response they’ve received since announcing their return. A handful of live gigs have gone well and it’s been |
en | N/A | N/A | MPs from all parties and from all areas of Britain are being called upon by smug triumphalists to deliver a near unanimous vote in favour of triggering Article 50.
“Stands to reason, dunnit?” said Kevin Giblets, an unemployed plasterer from Penge. “We all voted for Brexit so the MPs all have to.” Our Herald reporter queried whether, if an MP genuinely believed leaving would be a disaster, they were not duty bound under the Burkean concept of representational democracy to vote against? Mr Giblets responded “But… Brexit!”
We pressed further, asking about MPs who represent constituencies which voted to remain and whether their MPs voting for Brexit would not be a fundamental perversion of democracy. Mr Giblets replied “But… Brexit!”
We finally put forward the clear position that a Parliamentary vote in favour, by something like 575-75 on an issue decided by a margin of less than 4%, could only be seen as ‘democracy’ by an educationally subnormal hamster.
Mr Giblets opined “But … Brexit!” |
en | N/A | N/A | The holidays are supposed to be a joyful time, but for many it is stressful and exhausting. Using EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) tapping is an excellent tool to help relieve stress so you can embrace the spirit of the season and happily join the festivities.
If you are not familiar with EFT or need a refresher, there are plenty of sites on the internet to help you learn this simple yet powerful technique. Or you can explore the EFT tapping articles on my website.
Before you begin tapping, find a quiet place where you can close your eyes and tune in to your thoughts. Take a deep breath and use the following script as a guide. Feel free to omit, add, or replace any statements to better suit your situation.
Start with the set up statement. You can use any or all of the following suggestions:
Karate Chop: Even though I feel so stressed out, I choose to accept myself and my feelings.
Karate Chop: Even though the holiday is causing me stress, I choose to accept myself and where I am.
Karate Chop: Even though the holidays are stressful, I choose to be open to a more joyful time this year.
Round 1: Tap it out. Acknowledge the stress and the emotions that come with it. If you need more than one round to do this, repeat the phrases or add your own.
Eyebrow: I’m so stressed out
Side of Eye: There is so much to do
Under Eye: Shopping and cooking
Under Nose: Cleaning and entertaining
Chin: The holidays are more work than fun
Collarbone: It’s taking it’s toll on me
Under Arm: I feel tired just thinking about it
Top of Head: I wish I could close the door on it all
Round 2: What do you want? Prepare your subconscious mind for change. You are letting it know that there is an alternative to the stress.
Eyebrow: I want to enjoy the holidays
Side of Eye: I want to relax and have fun
Under Eye: I want to feel ease
Under Nose: I want to get into the spirit of the season
Chin: I want to feel like everything is under control
Collarbone: I want to have time for myself
Under Arm: What if all this is possible?
Top of Head: Maybe I can set my intent to make it possible
Round 3: Tap it in. Your feelings and the way you react to circumstances is always a choice. In this round you will “tap in” your choices.
Eyebrow: I choose to have a joyful holiday experience
Side of Eye: I choose to relax and have fun
Under Eye: I choose to believe everything will get done
Under Nose: I choose to let go of the need for perfection
Chin: I choose to make time to nurture myself
Collarbone: I choose to find things to appreciate
Under Arm: I choose to allow myself to bask in the spirit of the season
Top of Head: I choose to have peace and believe all is well
After completing the tapping rounds, take a deep breath and tune in to the stress. Do you feel relief? If not, repeat the tapping sequence above until the heaviness of the stress has been relieved.
After using these scripts you should feel more relaxed, optimistic, and relieved. If the stress returns, simply repeat the process. Over time, you may find yourself handling stressful situations with ease. At last, you can look forward to the holidays with joyful anticipation and fully enjoy the spirit of the season.
EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) for Positive Living
There is no limit to what you can use EFT for. Gary Craig, the founder of Emotional Freedom Techniques says “Try it on everything!” I have tried it on myself and with my clients with exceptional results.
Below is a list of ways EFT Tapping can be used in your daily life.
Negative emotions cause a disruption in the body’s energy system. When these emotions are not addressed, they eventually cause physical side effects such as weight gain, illness or disease.
EFT Tapping helps to bring the body back into balance and allows the body to resume its natural healing abilities.
Tapping has been successfully used for health issues such as:
“Money problems are usually the result of limiting beliefs that are held in your subconscious mind. Negative thoughts such as “I never have enough money” create blocks in the body’s energy system, which then manifest as your reality.
It can also help you to change habits and patterns of behavior, ease negative emotions, and dissolve past influences (such as memories) that contribute to financial stress.” – Excerpt from EFT for Positive Living: Tapping Scripts for Money
Tapping can be used for the following money issues:
When you’re juggling kids, parents, partner, and a job, family life can become stressful. If you’re not experiencing domestic bliss, EFT Tapping can relieve the stress and help you maintain a continuous state of emotional well-being. Your life will go much smoother, and be much happier, if you take the time to restore your balance. A happy you contributes to a happy family.
Tapping is a powerful tool to use if you are having challenges with any of the following family issues:
Loss of family member
EFT Tapping for Relationships
The people you interact with on a daily basis can have a significant impact on your emotional well-being. If your interactions are stressful, or you are involved in unhealthy, toxic relationships, EFT Tapping can help you to release the emotional strain, keep you in a positive frame of mind, and restore harmony.
You can use Tapping to improve your relationship with:
EFT Tapping for Spirituality

Tapping can help you:
Change negative mind patterns
Accept responsibility for your life
Release resistance to growth
Release painful past experiences
Let go of fear, anger, hurt, confusion
Change beliefs that no longer support you
EFT Tapping for Life Purpose
If you are feeling confused about what your purpose is, EFT Tapping is a good starting point to bring clarity. This simple yet powerful technique can help you to release the blocks that are holding you back from being the person you were born to be.
Explore your heart’s calling
Your work situation can be an emotionally charged subject if things are not flowing the way you want them to. Whether you are pursuing a career, self-employed, or an employee at a job, EFT Tapping can help you release the negative emotions that may be preventing you from enjoying a positive work experience.

How to Combine EFT and the Law of Attraction
EFT and the Law of Attraction are a perfect match because EFT, also known as tapping, literally “taps” out the resistance that keeps you from manifesting the life you want.
EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) helps to clear resistance by balancing the energy system of the body and restoring emotional alignment. This allows the body and mind to resume their natural healing abilities. EFT often works when nothing else will.
EFT can be used with the Law of Attraction in the following ways:
You can use EFT to dilute or eliminate feelings of sadness, anxiety, anger, frustration, jealousy, resentment, or any other negative emotion that lowers your vibration and robs you of your natural state of well-being. EFT is an excellent tool to reduce your stress levels and restore you sense of peace.
People get hung up on all sorts of limiting beliefs of why they shouldn’t, why they can’t, what others might think, and beliefs about what might happen if they succeed (example: “It’s not safe to succeed.”) Tapping out limiting beliefs will help you to break the cycle of self-sabotage so you can be successful at whatever dream or desire you pursue.
After tapping out negative emotions or limiting beliefs, tap in at least a couple rounds of affirmations or positive phrases, such as “I am worthy of joy,” “I am worthy of being happy,” “Happiness and joy are my birthright,” “I allow myself to be happy.” This has worked exceptionally well with my clients and leaves them feeling uplifted and optimistic.
Tapping on the meridians of the body stimulates the energy flow, which allows the mind to be more open and receptive to your input. Tapping in positive statements while visualizing what you want enhances the experience and gives a sense of stronger belief that you can truly have what you are visualizing. You can use statements such as “I see myself winning the lottery! It feels exhilarating to know that I am now financially free and secure.” while you are picturing yourself with a winning lottery ticket.
Spending time in meditation on a daily basis is highly recommended as a resistance release technique for the Law of Attraction. But if you’re like me and have a difficult time quieting your mind, try using EFT before you begin your meditation process. You can use statements such as “Even though it’s hard to quiet my mind,” “Even though it’s difficult to suspend my thoughts for 15 minutes,” or “Even though I can’t stop thinking.” Tapping is very calming and will help you to relax your body and mind for a more satisfying meditation experience.
Tips for Optimum Results
Although EFT is simple to use and very forgiving, there are a few tips that will help you to achieve optimum results:
Drink water before and after tapping. EFT is more effective when you are hydrated. The water helps to flush out any toxins that are being released from the tapping.
Be consistent. Make tapping a priority. Set time aside daily to focus on tapping out any negative stuff you might be dealing with in your life. I like to use EFT after my meditation time. My day always runs smoother when I include it as part of my morning routine.
Be persistent. If you don’t get results, keep trying. There may be other aspects to explore and tap on. If a seemingly unrelated thought comes up during a round, tap on it also. There may be a connection that you are not aware of. Ask your Inner Being to guide you.
Having a simple, yet powerful tool like EFT to eliminate your limiting beliefs and negative self-talk. It will prove to be an essential key for leveraging the Law of Attraction!
Learn to make EFT your go-to tool for clearing resistance. After you have experienced the amazing results, you’ll wonder how you ever got by without it. Soon you will be attracting everything you have been wanting into your life.
EFT tapping is a simple, yet powerful process that helps the mind and body re-balance itself when things get out of whack. It is based on the same principles as traditional acupuncture, but instead of needles, eft combines gentle tapping on key acupuncture points while focusing your thoughts on the issue at hand.
Tapping provides relief from chronic pain, emotional problems, disorders, addictions, phobias, post traumatic stress disorder, and physical diseases. It is truly magic at your fingertips! It is one of my favorite tools to release resistance on myself and with my coaching clients.
“The cause of all negative emotions is a disruption in the body’s energy system”. – Gary Craig
EFT tapping has evolved over time and new methods are continually being discovered that are simpler yet just as effective.
The “Short Sequence” was the basic technique I learned when I became certified in EFT and is currently the most commonly used among practitioners today.
The “Short Sequence” is easy to learn and apply:
The Setup: Focus on bringing an emotion or issue into your awareness in the present moment. Feel the emotion. For physical conditions – what emotion would represent it?
The Evaluation: Measure how strong the emotion feels between 1 and 10.
The Affirmation: Rub the “sore spot” on the chest (see image below) in a circular fashion OR tap on the karate chop spot, repeat the affirmation 3 times: “Even though I have this __________, I deeply and completely accept myself.”
The Tapping Sequence: Using your index and middle fingers, tap with a medium pressure approximately 7 times (5-10 is fine) on each of the accupressure points while repeating the the reminder phrase once at each point: “This _______________.” Note: points can be tapped on either side.
The Re-evaluation: When the tapping sequence is completed, take a moment to focus on the emotion or issue again and notice how it feels. Evaluate it again between 1 and 10.
Partial Relief: Still above a 2 in intensity. Repeat short sequence to clear remaining emotions.
Nearly Complete Relief: Intensity is 2 or below. Try *Floor-to-Ceiling Eye Roll while tapping on the Gamut Spot. If it clears, you’re done. If not, repeat the Short Sequence.
Complete Relief: Intensity is gone completely. Focus on a situation you may experience in the future, imagine yourself there to see if you get any emotional intensity. If so, repeat the Short Sequence to clear remaining intensity.
Little or No Relief: Little or no change in emotional intensity. Use Complete Sequence.
*Visit eft-help.com to learn the Floor-to-Ceiling Eye Roll and other additional EFT techniques.
Over the years I have developed my own tapping techniques with great success!
The Setup: This is the same as in the Short Sequence above. Focus on bringing an emotion or issue into your awareness in the present moment. Feel the emotion. For physical conditions – what emotion would represent it?
The Affirmation: Acknowledge the issue. Tap on the karate chop spot, repeat the affirmation 3 times: “Even though I have this __________, I love and accept myself anyway.”
Round 1: Tap out the negative. Acknowledge the issue and the emotions that come with it. If you need more than one round to do this, repeat the phrases. Tap on whatever comes up.
Round 2: What do you want? Prepare your mind for change. You are letting it kow that there are alternatives and you are open to new possibilities.
Round 3: Tap it in. “Tap in” your new choices, such as “I choose to feel better,” “I choose to let it go.” Your feelings and the way you react to circumstances is always your choice.
The Re-evaluation: After completing the tapping rounds, take a deep breath, tune into the emotion or issue and notice how it feels. Evaluate it again between 1 and 10. Do you feel better? If not, repeat the tapping sequence until you feel relief.
Karate Chop Point (KC): This point is on the side of your hand, in the middle of the fleshy part.
Eyebrow (EB): This point is at the inside edge of the eyebrow, above the inside corner of the eye.
Side of the Eye (SE): This point is next to the outside of the eye, on the temple.
Under the Eye (UE): This point is just below the middle of the eye, near the edge of the bone.
Under the Nose (UN): This point is in the indentation just between the middle of the nose and the middle of the upper lip.
Chin (CH): This point is on the middle of the chin, just below the crease.
Collarbone (CB): This point is a tender area close to the end of the collar bone, next to the u-shaped indentation below the neck, just under the bone.
Under the Arm (UA): This point is in the the tender area on the side of the chest about four inches below the armpit.
Top of the Head (TH): This point is at the crown of the head
You can use the left or right hand, or both hands, and tap on either side of the body.
Use enough pressure when tapping to stimulate the meridians but not enough to hurt yourself. Use the same amount of pressure you
would use if you were drumming your fingers on a table.
Drink water before and after a tapping session. Water is a conductor of energy and can help get your energy flowing. It also helps to flush out an toxins that might be released from the tapping.
Take a slow deep breath after tapping to help move the energy through your body.
Yawning during tapping is a sign that you are releasing energy.
Be persistent. If you’re intensity level is not releasing to a 0, keep tapping on the issue. You may need to use different wording, or there may be other aspects to address.
Connect to your feelings. Be aware of your response to the thought or event you are thinking about.
Be Specific. Rather than using general statements, try to focus on specific incidents. Or if it is pain in the body, describe the pain. Where is it?
Tune in to your emotions. Say your statements and reminder phrases as though you mean them.

Love Your Life – EFT Tapping Script
The Love Your Life tap-along-script below is a wonderful reminder to embrace your life as it is. By loving what you have at this point in your life, you allow more wonderful things to flow to you.
I highly recommend doing this tapping sequence in the morning to help set the tone for your day. It will make you feel good and help to draw more things throughout your day to be grateful for.
Note: If you are not familiar with the basics of EFT, Gary Craig’s book The EFT Manual is the perfect place to start.
For those familiar with EFT, you can use this tap-along-script as written or change the set up and sequence statements to better suit your situation.
Love Your Life Tapping Script
While tapping the Karate Chop spot repeat these phrases:
“Even though my life is not exactly how I want it be right now, I deeply and completely accept myself”
“Even though my life is not perfect, I do have a lot to be thankful for.”
Under Nose: I could be happier
Under Arm: My life is far from perfect
Top of Head: But it could be a lot worse
Eyebrow: I really do have a lot to be thankful for
Under Eye: I appreciate the person I am and who I am becoming
Under Nose: I choose to love my life as it is
Collarbone: And today my life is right where it’s supposed to be
Top of Head: I love my life and am thankful for all I have.
Take a deep breath. Focus on your life and how you feel. On a scale from 0-10 how true is the statement “I love my life”?
If the number went up, awesome! You have raised your vibration to a level of drawing more reasons to be happy about your life.
If your number did not change, or changed very little, try another round using specific statements of things in your life you do love – such as “I have an awesome husband/wife, I am thankful for my children, I am grateful I have an income (job, business, social security…), etc.
Everyone has something that is good about their life. This morning routine will help you to get in the habit of remembering on a daily basis.
Tip: Write one of the following affirmations on an index card and carry it around with you. Say it out loud through the day while tapping – either in a round, or on your favorite tapping point(s):
I love my life, life loves me. I now choose to allow joy and abundance to flow freely to me.
I love my life. I now create a life filled with joy and abundance.

Below are short descriptions of terms commonly used in EFT Tapping.
Acupoints: Acupuncture points, which are sensitive points along the body’s meridians. Acupoints can be stimulated by acupuncture needles or, in acupressure, by massage or tapping. EFT is an acupressure tapping technique.
Acupuncture Points: A term derived from traditional Chinese medicine referring to points on the body located along the energy meridians. Stimulating these points balances the flow of energy through the meridians and restores normal function to various parts of the body, along with balancing the emotions.
Apex Problem: An EFT term referring to a form of denial that some people experience in relation to subtle energy techniques. Their limited belief systems do not include the possibility that these techniques could produce rapid and profound changes. When the changes occur, these people block out their memories of the former problems.
Aspects: An EFT term referring to a specific part of a problem. An emotional pattern may have one or more aspects.
Basic Recipe: A four-step treatment consisting of Setup phrase, Sequence (tapping on acupoints in order), 9-Gamut Treatment, and Sequence. This was the original EFT protocol.
Borrowing Benefits: When you tap with or on behalf of another person, your own situation improves, even though you aren’t tapping for your own situation. This happens in one-on-one sessions, in groups, and when you perform surrogate or proxy tapping. The more you tap for others, the more your own life improves.
Chasing the Pain: After applying EFT, physical discomforts can move to other locations and/or change in intensity or quality. A headache described as a sharp pain behind the eyes at an intensity of 8 might shift to dull throb in back of the head at an intensity of 7 (or 9, or 3 or any other intensity level). Moving pain is an indication that EFT is working. Keep “chasing the pain” with EFT and it will usually go to zero or some low number. In the process, emotional issues behind the discomforts are often successfully treated.
Choices Method: Dr. Patricia Carrington’s method for inserting positive statements and solutions into Setup and Reminder Phrases.
Core Issues: Core issues are deep, important underlying emotional imbalances, usually created in response to traumatic events. A core issue is truly the crux of the problem, its root or heart. Core issues are not always obvious but careful detective work can often uncover them, and once discovered, they can be broken down into specific events and handled routinely with EFT.
EFT: Emotional Freedom Technique. A series of meridian-based healing processes developed by Gary Craig and Adrienne Fowlie, based on the discoveries of Dr. Roger Callahan.
Energy Toxins: An EFT term referring to energies and substances that irritate the energy system. Energy toxins include substances that are ingested or in contact with the body, along with negative energies in the environment.
Gamut Point: A point located on the back of the hand, which is also known as the brain balancing point. It is used for the Nine Gamut Process and the Floor-to-Ceiling Eye Roll.
Generalization Effect: When related issues are neutralized with EFT, they often take with them issues that are related in the person’s mind. In this way, several issues can be resolved even though only one is directly treated.
Global: While the term ‘global’ usually refers to something that is universal or experienced worldwide, In EFT it refers to problems, especially in Setup phrases, that are vague and not specific.
Intensity Meter: The zero-to-10 scale that measures pain, discomfort, anger, frustration, and every other physical or emotional symptom. Intensity can also be indicated with gestures, such as hands held close together (small discomfort) or wide apart (large discomfort).
Meridians: Invisible channels or pathways through which energy or Chi flows in the body. The eight primary meridians pass through five pairs of vital organs, and twelve secondary meridians network to the extremities. The basic premise of EFT is that the cause of every negative emotion and most physical symptoms is a block or disruption in the flow of Chi, or energy, along one or more of the meridians.
Movie Technique: or Watch a Movie Technique In this process you review in your mind, as though it were a movie, a bothersome specific event. When intensity comes up, stop and tap on that intensity. When the intensity subsides, continue in your mind with the story. This method has been a mainstay in the tool box of many EFT practitioners. It may be the most-often used EFT technique of all.
Muscle Testing: The practical use of Kinesiology. By isolating a specific muscle, you can test its response to access conscious and unconscious information.
Personal Peace Procedure: An exercise in which you clear problems and release core issues by writing down, as quickly as possible, as many bothersome events from your life that you can remember. Try for at least 50 or 100. Give each event a title, as though it is a book or movie. When the list is complete, begin tapping on the largest issues. Eliminating at least one uncomfortable memory per day (a very conservative schedule) removes at least 90 unhappy events in three months. If you work through two or three per day, it’s 180 or 270.
Psychological Reversal (PR): An EFT term referring to the presence of unconscious beliefs and judgments that may prevent an individual from achieving positive results with the EFT tapping sequences. In such cases, the PR must be addressed directly for the tapping sequences to be effective.
Reminder Phrase: A word, phrase, or sentence that helps the mind focus on the problem being treated. It is used in combination with acupoint tapping.
Setup Phrase or Setup: An opening statement said at the beginning of each EFT treatment which defines and helps neutralize the problem. In EFT, the standard Setup phrase is, Even though I have this (problem) ___________, I fully and completely accept myself.
SUD Level: This is a psychospeak term used by therapists when speaking of the 0-10 intensity scale that we often use to measure the severity of an issue. It stands for Subjective Units of Distress.
Surrogate or Proxy Tapping: involves tapping on yourself on behalf of another person. The person can be present or not. Another way to perform surrogate or proxy tapping is to substitute a photograph, picture, or line drawing for the person and tap on that.
Surrogate Muscle Testing: The use of kinesiology to test responses in another individual. This method is commonly used when an individual is not in a suitable condition to test directly and for testing an individual long distance.
Tail-enders: The yes, but statements that create negative self-talk. When you state a goal or affirmation, tail-enders point the way to core issues.
Tell the Story Technique or Story Technique: Narrate or tell the story out loud of a specific event dealing with trauma, grief, anger, etc., and stop to tap whenever the story becomes emotionally intense. Each of the stopping points represents another aspect of the issue that, on occasion, will take you to even deeper issues. This technique is identical to the Movie Technique except that in the Movie Technique, you simply watch past events unfold in your mind. In the Tell a Story Technique, you describe them out loud.
Try It On Everything: A phrase used often by founder Gary Craig. By this statement we are urging you to give EFT a try even if you think the problem is impossible. This is because EFT (properly done) appears to produce benefits for just about everything thrown at it. However, this is not to be taken as an assurance that EFT works on everything (although time may prove that it does).
Writings on Your Walls: Limiting beliefs and attitudes that result from cultural conditioning or family attitudes, these are often illogical and harmful yet very strong subconscious influences.

What is EFT Emotional Freedom Technique?
EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), also known as tapping, is a form of psychological acupressure based on the ancient principles of acupuncture.
Instead of needles, EFT combines gentle tapping on key acupuncture points while focusing your thoughts on pain, uncomfortable emotions, memories, cravings or any other problem.
EFT is a complimentary therapy that helps the body to re-balance itself, and accelerates healing.
An energy imbalance in the body can cause effects such as illness, physical pain, depression, anxiety, fear, anger, etc. EFT balances the energy system and helps to relieve psychological stress and physical pain.
Restoring the balance of the energy system allows the body and mind to resume their natural healing abilities. EFT tapping often works when nothing else will.
EFT is Easy to Learn and Apply
While focusing on an issue you want to release, affirmation and reminder phrases are repeated while tapping various acupressure points on the body with your fingers.
Often the process only takes minutes to achieve results. In other cases it may take a little longer if there are underlying issues that also need to be addressed.
EFT can be used on anything; emotional issues, physical pain and healing, fears and phobias, money, success and abundance, addictions, relationships, sports performance, childbirth fears, and so much more.
Gary Craig (the founder of the Emotional Freedom Technique) encourages us to “try it on anything”.
This is where the mind and body connection really works. By saying certain phrases while tapping, reprogramming can take place at a cellular level while you’re focusing on what needs to be cleared and/or reprogrammed so it can happen faster than with other types of alternative methods.
Remember, everything is made up of energy, including us, we’re simply moving it around, realigning it and allowing it to flow.
The benefits of Emotional Freedom Technique:
Peace of mind, feel calmer and think more clearly
Helps Resolve Emotional Issues
Controls cravings of addictions
“EFT, by far, is the most fascinating, most rewarding, most effective tool I have ever found for personal improvement.”
If you are new to EFT and want to learn more I highly recommend Gary Craig’s book The EFT Manual. Once you get the hang of it and use it on a regular basis, there is no challenge you can’t overcome! |

The Chairman made this disclosure on Tuesday, June 4, 2019, at the party Secretariat along Egbu road Owerri, in a press conference organized by the party to intimate the public on the happenings in the party and its future plans.
OnAssembly election in the state, the Chairman maintained that APGA won the governorship election in the state and that the party is currently in court to seek redress, with a bid “to recover it’s stolen mandate”.

en | N/A | N/A | Dawn Madison is a stuntwoman laying low after a humiliating “incident”on the job. When she is contacted with the news that her father, Frank, has gonemissing while investigating the sighting of a child actor that was supposed tobe dead, she is drawn
Night Rising is just a fun, sexy ride of a novel. Dawn istough and resilient, yes, but she’s also broken, and feels like she isconstantly in the shadow of her sex symbol mother, who died when she was young.She teams up with Breisi, a beautiful techno geek(with a penchant for rather tackyteddy bear t-shirts) and Kiko, a short, sweet, and psychic actor, to find herfather and solve the mystery of the supposedlydead child star.
Then there’s The Voice, Breisi and Kiko’s Charlie’sAngelesque boss, supposedly a talented hypnotist and a shut-in. Dawn never seeshim, but she most certainly feelshim, which serves as a nearly constant distraction for Dawn. How Ms. Greenmanaged to make a disembodied voice sexy, I don’t know, but she did!
I liked Dawn. A lot. She grew on me more and more as thenovel progressed. She uses sex as a balm, and as a way to escape from herself.She’s terrified of getting close to others and suffers from a near constantjealousy of the legendary beauty that her mother was in life. These weaknesseswere what I liked most about her, because we all have insecurities, some morethan others, and this vulnerability made me identify with her all the more.
Night Rising alternates between looking over Dawn’s shoulder inthird person POV and taking us Underground, where a race of vampires hold thekey to this mystery, and an aging Master and his second in command are trying tohold together the secret of their existence. Ms. Green did a great job atconveying the sensuality of the vamp race without resulting to gratuitousscenes, and I really enjoyed her rather fun and unique hierarchy within thevamp Underground, not to mention the different kinds of vamps that make up the vampire race, some of which aresuper nasty; the barbed tails and sharp silver teeth kind of nasty! The author’swriting style is smooth, and easy to keep up with, and she doesn’t clutterthings up with info overload, rather weaving in details throughout the novel,keeping you reading and wanting to learn more about her quirky (and lovable)cast of characters.
A more perfect, and rich, backdrop could not have been foundfor this book, and Ms. Green mines it for all it’s worth! Hollywood glamour and the trappings of celebrityhighlight the dark secrets that lurk just beneath the surface. Just when I’d had enough of vampires and didn’tthink there was anything original left, I discovered Night Rising, and I’m soglad I did! I’m actually happy that Ididn’t read this when it first came out, in 2007, because now there arefive more books in the series, and Idon’t have to wait to read them! I’m looking forward to learning more aboutDawn’s past, not to mention getting more of Kiko, Breisi, and of course, TheVoice!

With cars traveling slower and not whizzing by, people should feel more comfortable and at ease, and the addition of benches and other forms of urban furniture (i.e. tables) should make them actually want to spend time on the streets. Leveling the roads works toward breaking down a sort of invisible barrier that exists between the street and sidewalk. Having the street slightly lower than the sidewalk makes the street seem distinctly like a place for cars. When pedestrians are on the street, it feels like they are trespassing, and that at any moment they may be struck by a car defending its turf. Leveling the two grounds erases this divide because the street does not feel like an entirely different place, and pedestrians are more likely to feel comfortable when crossing the streets, contributing to an overall more enjoyable experience on foot around the city.
Efforts to install more “pedestrian interventions” represent another way the city is attempting to promote safer, vibrant street life for the people of Buenos Aires. A “pedestrian intervention” is an area of the street that is redrawn with a different color paint, indicating that this area is effectively now part of the sidewalk. These interventions are typically installed at “unconventional intersections,” with crossing routes difficult for both cars and pedestrians to interpret. According to Luchemos por la Vida, a local NGO that advocates for safer streets, Argentina has had a significantly higher number of fatalities in traffic accidents per million automobiles between 1993 and 2012 than the United States, Spain, and the Netherlands combined. Evidently, the country could benefit from techniques targeted toward reducing traffic fatalities, such as the interventions mentioned before.
Not only does this improve street safety, but it provides the city with an opportunity to further revitalize street-life by placing benches, tables, and other urban furniture in these designated areas that allow people to enjoy their public space. In the words of Juanjo Mendez, Buenos Aires’ Secretary of Transport, “pedestrian interventions are the result of rethinking the city on a more human scale, with a new look based on how we relate with public space.”
Significant increases in the number of trees in a neighborhood have a definite positive impact on the presence of green space, and the placement of benches and tables on sidewalks makes it easier to enjoy public spaces without having to travel far. </s> Burning Spear News
Comrade of the Quarter Bakari Olatunji at Uhuru Foods & Pies, Oakland, California
The market is a booth where Uhuru Foods & Pies cooks and sells our African Comfort Food every Saturday of the year.
This shows the political support for the Uhuru Movement—that the presence Bakari has built at the market—generates.
It also shows the relationship with the community that is such an important aspect to the success of Uhuru Foods & Pies.
Bakari starts working on the market every Saturday, rain or shine, hot or cold, at about 5:30 in the morning and does not end until 4:30 in the afternoon.
He also staffs the Uhuru House three afternoons each week.
At every weekly Uhuru Foods & Pies meeting, Bakari brings a written report that contains victories, contradictions and suggestions for growing the market income, efficiency, better presence, recruitment and safety.
Bakari introduced a new menu item, an African Curry Lentil Stew, to great success, especially as the months are colder.
We have since turned this stew into a new pie: An African Savory Pastry. It is also vegan! We sell out every week.
He works with a steady team of volunteers to achieve all of the above. They come back week after week after week.
Some of these contacts have created additional vending opportunities for Uhuru Foods & Pies.
This work is all tied to the Black Power Blueprint, of which Uhuru Foods & Pies is a component.
For these reasons and more, it is an honor to work with and to nominate Bakari Olatunji for Comrade of the Quarter.

is rated 4.0 out of 5 by 1. </s> I'm sorry but you have a mistake interpreting the 70 weeks prophecy of Daniel. This prophecy is indeed a twofold one but not about the second coming of jesus but about the coming of 'the prince who is to come', the desolator, the king of the Jews, the so-called antichrist. The wall was finished in 1542 plus 476 years you arrive at 2018 in which the antichrist appears.
The third point is important. You seem to take the time for the prophetic clock to start ticking as being from the completion of the Wall of Jerusalem, rather than its commencement. In the present context, the Wall was started in 1536 and completed sometime very late in 1542. Taking the completion date as the prophetic time marker, as you do, and adding 173,880 days, does indeed give an end date for the prophecy sometime in 2018. Thus it would be helpful to know whether it is the commencement or completion date which should start the prophetic clock. Let us look at this.
In the first fulfillment of the prophecy, the wall was built in just a month and a half – all within the20th year of Artaxerxes. So there was no difference in the year of fulfillment, namely 33 AD. In this present case, however, there is a 7 year time-span to consider. Your comments indicate that you are taking the completion date for the Wall as the time marker rather than its inception. But in our English translations of Daniel 9:25 it says “from the going forth of the command to build” which seems to indicate the commencement of the building.
In the case of the second rebuilding of the Wall of Jerusalem the situation is still problematical as there were a number of commands given by Suleiman relating to the Wall. In our web article we recorded the first commands he gave, which were for the construction of the Sabil or water fountains in 1536 which had to be built to supply water for the Wall construction and to refresh the workers. Without water, the construction could not commence. Some of our calculations were based on those dates, plus the fact that many had concluded that the wall was finished sometime in 1541 or 1542.
In this case, only the year of the command is given, not the month or day. When 173,880 days are added to the time of this second command, the end date is sometime after 21st May 2018. So, as at this moment of writing, it is still possible that it is valid to take the prophecy as two-fold with a potential fulfillment sometime during 2018 - 2019. If this period passes without some significant event, then the prophecy does not have a two-fold fulfillment, and I am in error for thinking it does.
There is only one Person who therefore fits the description of Messiah under these circumstances, and he came before the Temple was destroyed. He, in fact, warned of the coming of antichrist and the abomination of desolation that Daniel said was to be set up in a later, reconstructed Temple. So the Person who came in 33 AD is not antichrist, but rather prophesied of him. It should be noted that before there was an antichrist or anti-messiah, the real Messiah had to appear, otherwise there could not be a counterfeit.
Some have questioned that Yeshua (Jesus) was the Messiah (Ha Mashiach). They have said that if that were the case, then surely it would have been mentioned in the Tenach (Old Testament). My response is to quote two verses from the Tenach. First, Isaiah 62:11 “Say to the daughter of Zion, Surely your Yeshua is coming; behold His reward is with Him and his work before Him.” Here the context shows that Yeshua (Jesus in English) is a personal name. Second, in Habakkuk 3:13 we read these words: “You went forth |
en | N/A | N/A | Centuries ago, sheep and dogs and people mingled on the Green, which, in the early days of the College, served as a pasture. This week, livestock will return to campus in one of the most unusual world premieres ever to come to the Hopkins Center for the Arts. It’s called Doggie Hamlet, and on Thursday, it will kick off the Hop’s summer programming.
She says Doggie Hamlet was inspired by three literary works: Shakespeare’s Hamlet, Kipling’s The Jungle Book, and David Wroblewski’s 2008 novel, The Story of Edgar Sawtelle, about a boy who was born mute and uses gestures to communicate with the dogs he raises.
Enter the sheep, Carlson’s addition to the story. In Hanover, they’ll be supplied by Stephen Wetmore, a nationally known border collie trainer from Strafford, Vt. But Wetmore’s dogs will not be in the production. The canine cast members come courtesy of Diane Cox, a sheep farmer and sculpture professor at Alfred University. Wetmore isn’t sure what to expect when his flock interacts with dogs they don’t know.
Dartmouth, she says, is an ideal site for the first public full-length performance. “We’ve done it on sheep farms, but this will be the first time we try it in a more urban context, where the ambient soundscape will include people and cars as well as the dog handlers’ commands,” says Carlson. “The Green is so gorgeous, and there’s so much history of livestock grazing there. I also love hearing bell tower chimes ring.” She says there is a ceremonial element to the piece, but it also has humorous moments.
This is not the first time Carlson has brought her work to Dartmouth. In 1997, she developed and premiered a project with the College’s custodial staff, spending time with them during the year, then creating a performance including staff members, who took center stage at the Hop.
An innovator whose work has been seen in theaters, galleries, and museums around the world, Carlson often works with unconventional and nonprofessional performers, including fly fishermen, nuns, corporate executives, security officers, poker players, gardeners, and physicians. She has received more than 30 commissions and numerous awards, including consisteDoggie Hamlet was developed in part during a residency at Vermont Performance Lab, which presented a preview of the work in 2016.

en | N/A | N/A | One of the best ideas Game Freak has had in recent years has been the introduction of regional formswhich consist of offering players alternate versions of Pokemon already known, giving this to some forgotten species to shine again while bringing alternative strategies in the competitive that can be even better than the originals, some of the examples seen being Weezing from Galar, Muk from Alola , Ninentals of Alola, among others.
Now, it must be said that the fact introduce alternate versions of Pokemonis not something that has been used exclusively by Game Freak, since for years you can see that Pokemon fans who are artists have chosen to offer some drawings that show us Pokemon of different types those we know, taking as an example the recent case of the Electric-type Cyndaquiel.
Under this same premise, and also using a starter as a base, the Reddit user called PokemonRegionalFR has created an alternate version of Bulbasaur and all its evolutionary line in which we can see that this Pokemon becomes a stone monster with Fire and Rock types there will be more regional forms in Pokemon Scarlet and Purple, since at the moment we only know Wooper from Paldea.

en | N/A | N/A | Setting Ignition Timing—Experience Begins At Zero
As J.B. Nicholson taught me a long time ago, just do it.
I was 20 years old and had never set ignition timing on an engine. A college friend had finished assembling his early 1950s long-stroke Triumph 500cc twin and was confidently expecting me to time its gear-driven magneto. I didn't know how.
That magneto was about the size of a short brick. One end of it generated electrical pulses, concentrating their energy in the form of internal magnetic fields. The other end contained a rotating switch—the contact breaker—spinning inside a cam ring with two internal-facing bumps. A phenolic plastic "foot" on the contact breaker was moved by the bumps, opening the switch. Gearing between engine crankshaft and magneto was two to one; the mag completed one revolution for every two by the crank.
At the instant the switch opened, generated current flowing in the magneto was cut off and the sudden collapse of the magnetic field it was generating induced a high-voltage pulse in a winding of fine wire. This pulse, arriving at the spark-plug's gap through the ignition wire, produced a steeply increasing electric field across that gap. If all was well, random free electrons that happened to exist in that gap were, in turn, knock electrons off of gas molecules in the gap. This became a chain reaction, allowing an avalanche of electrons to flow across the gap. The vast number of electron-to-gas molecule collisions transferred this energy to the gas, heating it explosively (that's the "snap" you hear when a spark jumps a plug gap, and it is also the explosive crash when lightning discharges close by). If that gap contains fuel vapor as well as air, the spark discharge may very well ignite it; riding a combustion-powered motorcycle absolutely depends on it!
The trouble is, that event had to be timed to occur at the right time. If it happened too early, the engine might kick back during starting—no electric starter on those early twins—and would lose power because the fuel-air mixture would burn to peak pressure too early, causing the engine to fight itself as its pistons tried to compress that too-early combustion.
If the spark were timed significantly too late, peak combustion pressure would occur after the piston had descended too far on its power stroke, causing significant loss of peak pressure because it was happening in a combustion space already considerably expanded by piston movement. Another effect was what a do-it-yourself friend had seen on an ancient car he had mistimed: The exhaust manifold became red hot because the late combustion, instead of delivering peak energy to the descending piston, blew most of it out the exhaust valves and into the manifold.
These threatening facts raced through my head as the time approached when I had undertaken to be Mr. Wizard and time the ignition.
Described by the publisher as "," the 766-page seventh edition of J.B. Nicholson's classic Modern Motorcycle Mechanics is available here.Courtesy of Modern Motorcycle Mechanics
With the ignition switch off, spark plugs removed from the engine, and cover off the contact-breaker end of the magneto, I put the graduated spoke vertically into the inclined spark-plug hole until it touched the piston, positioned just before top center on its compression stroke. I could now measure piston position by counting file marks on that spoke.
Ideally that contact opening would be indicated on a resistance meter wired across the contacts, but in that simple, anyone-can-do-it world, contact opening was detected by placing a strip of thin cellophane cut from a cigarette package between the points then exerting a slight tug on it with your fingers.
As I recall, the drive gear on the magneto fitted onto a taper, so the drill was to have the gear loose on the shaft while one person held the magneto at the position in which its contacts were just opening. The other person rotated the crankshaft to bring the piston to 5/16 of an inch before top center. At that point, a "sharp rap with a small hammer" would seat the gear on the tapered shaft, after which its fixing nut could be tightened.
Some adroitness required but eventually it was done, and I checked it several times. I put the cellophane between the points with the piston in mid-stroke, then slowly rotated the engine forward, pulling on the cellophane and watching the spoke gauge to see when the piston had reached 5/16 of an inch before top center. Yes! It was good.
"Is that it?" asked the friend.
"Yes, it's timed."
The Triumph started and ran. The result felt good, but I knew I was as fake as the Wizard of Oz. It was actually J.B. Nicholson who timed that Triumph engine.
I kept that spoke for years. |

Being a child of the 90s I remember what it used to be like amusing myself for hours on end with a stick in the park. Not having as many screen related distractions as there are today, I can appreciate the importance of reading, walking and playing instruments. I’m not claiming that kids today don’t know how to do these things but I think it is important to consider that because we live in a world where screens are in commodity, many children do not realize that using technology can be damaging for their health. Many people will highlight that it is the parent’s responsibility to regulate their children’s screen time and I couldn’t agree more. The other day I was horrified to discover two five year olds playing board games on their Kindle Fire HD’s instead of having the actual board out in front of them.
It is impressive that in our day and age one is able to download an app which provides you with all the materials you need to draw a picture or an app that lets you use a virtual drum kit. However, it concerns me that many individuals will focus all their time and energy on these as opposed to picking up a real guitar or a pencil and learning the skill properly.
A key thing to remember and I feel can sometimes be overlooked in our age of social networking and online community is the importance of human interaction. It is all very well if you can eloquently charm an employee over the web or chat at ease with a friend over Facebook without the fear of your body language and facial expressions being studied. But at the end of the day if you want to land your self a job, at some point down the line you will have to use your body language, social skills and personality during the interview process. The same goes for making friends. It is all very well being friends online and seeing their interests and occasionally shooting the breeze but you will never truly get to know someone unless you meet them face to face. Call me old fashioned but I still struggle talking on the phone to people, as I find it hard to read people without having them sitting there in front of me.
The leaps in technology we have made have brought around many useful and innovative designs to help us in our day to day lives. However it is important to address that our lives will become dependent on using and interacting with screens. As we move further into the future, it is important to make an effort to look back into the past and remember alternative tools that can be used for the same purpose. By doing this we will lower the chances of eye strain and becoming unhealthly. It will also force us to use more inventive and obscure ways to solving problems and producing work.. </s> :.

It didn’t take me long to recognise why the film’s so critically acclaimed either; right off the bat, the film treated us to an introduction that’s inherently unnerving, and the centreground served as a convoluted, blood-filled mess that kept us constantly on our toes. Literally.
And just when we thought all was over, the ending came by and messed everyone up again, only this time for the hours that followed.
With seemingly fatal consequences.
And for the review junkies, here’re your deets.
Not the best review scores, but then again a horror film’s worth is hardly 100% dependent on its popularity with critics.
As always, do take note that this is my personal take on the movie, so if you disagree with my sentiments please do not pepper my doorstep with rotten eggs.
Also, it has to be mentioned that at the time of the screening, I was sitting right smack in the middle, three rows away from the screen. Best seats in my opinion, and also the most vulnerable to any potential scares.
As any horror buff would surely attest to, a tense atmosphere’s key to a solid, good horror movie. And as far as is concerned, I feel that it has the atmosphere down. Pat.
As you might’ve surmised from the summary, the movie’s primary domain happens to be that of a burial ground called the Pet Sematary. Now I’ve no idea why it’s called as such, but everything about it screams ‘danger’. The fog, in particular, really served to dish up the visual atmosphere, and when coupled with the intense soundtrack you’re treated to an atmosphere-fest that forms the backdrop for the remainder of the movie.
Colour me amazed, but damn; this movie is creepy af.
Which wasn’t exactly untrue, considering how horror fanatics undoubtedly look forward to the next jump scare that will make their blood run cold.
Indeed, if you head to the movie fully expecting jumpscares, I highly doubt that you’ll be disappointed. While they’re hardly rampant throughout the whole movie, they proved highly effective every time they ‘leapt in front of the screen’, and in that aspect, I really don’t think you’ll have anything to bemoan about.
Though I would just like to highlight that oftentimes, you might actually want to punch the cameraman in the face. Not because he did a bad job.
But because he did his job too well.
Let’s face it; a horror movie might possess all the necessary ingredients, but if it’s not scaring anyone it’s not a good horror movie.
I’ll probably get a fright of my life as well.
But it could damn well be the most unnerving one. |

From the first day of your life you have been such a joy to us! You are so kind, generous, and compassionate. Here are 10 reasons I love you so much! (There are millions more but you're turning 10 so 10 is what you get!:))
1. THE WAY YOU CARE FOR OTHERS! You have the sweetest heart and it has been evident in your life from a very young age that compassion is one of your gifts! From playing with babies, holding hands or hugging an elderly person, to loving on orphans you always have a smile and a hug!
2. YOUR AWESOMENESS AT SPORTS! You have always had a natural ability in sports and it is always such a joy for me to watch you play anything! Even when you are on a team that could possibly not have won a single game all season (;)) you give it your all and always have a great attitude. Can't wait to watch you pitch for the Rangers, be the quarterback for the Cowboys, or coach little league! You'll be great at whatever you do!
7. YOUR SLEEP HABITS! Ok, this one is pretty selfish of me but I can always count on you to be my sleeper!

8. YOUR LOVE FOR MUSIC! I know sometimes I tell you that I just can't listen to a song ONE MORE TIME! But actually I am the same way! You love to hear a good beat, sing, and get the message of the songs! I love that your favorite right now is Africa by Toto- it makes me think of our trip every time!
Precious! Happy birthday Patton! </s> 2016-2017 New Academic Year, New Challenge
As the children and teachers return to schools for the new academic year it’s time to brush off the cobwebs and refresh those learning centres of our brains to get ready to study again. Like any new year, it brings with it changes in faces and locations with new students and new schools, but also changes in approaches as we see institutesClassrooms and great equipment might be one aspect of what helps make a school excellent, but we all know it’s mainly about the teacher and the standard of teaching that makes the real difference.
In fact, no matter how old you are I would bet you can remember a teacher from your primary school – either for good reasons i.e. he/she was a positive impact in your life, or for all the wrong reasons! But there is no arguing that teachers play a significant role in the
development of young minds. Teachers have to stay up to date with changes in education and learning, as well as adapting an eclectic mix of approaches and methodologies to the individual learners in front of them. Teachers focus on how best to differentiate tasks and materials in order to engage, excite, and inspire young generations. So it goes without saying that the best teachers, are lifelong learners too!

Chapter 2: Olaudah Equiano (1745-179Olaudah Equiano
Timself. NY: Negro UP, 1969. HT869.E6 A3
Elrod, Eileen R.: U of Massachusetts P, 2008.
Finseth, Ian F.. Athens: U of Georgia P, 2009.
Nelson, Emmanuel S. e.
Olaudah Equiano was born in the Essaka region, northeast of the Niger River, in the interior of Nigeria. In 1756, he and his sister were kidnapped by local raiders. Equiano was just eleven. He was carried west and south across a large river by tribal Africans who spoke a different language. Equiano was brought to the coast and sold to British slavers sailing to the American continent. The conditions aboard the slave ships that brought the slaves to the New World were inhumane. In his biography Equiano describes the conditions; "...the heat of the climate us." (Samuels, 125)
Equiano's experiences would mostly be those of an indulgently treated African servant. Even in Africa, his first masters bought him more for companionship than labor. In Virginia, Equiano was bought by one Mr. Campbell. Campbell was Equiano's only New World master to put him in the fields. This manual labor was short lived; Campbell sold Equiano to Michael Henry Pascal, a former lieutenant in the Royal Navy, who commanded a merchant ship. Pascal purchased Equiano as a "present to some friends in England." (Samuels, 125)
Pascal renamed Equiano Gustavus Vassa, after the 16th century Swedish king. Equiano's life en route to England aboard Pascal's Industrious Bee was eased by the friendship he established with Richard Baker, a teenage American sailor. Baker served as his companion and tutor, teaching Equiano acculturation into Western civilization. After landing in England, Pascal took Equiano to Falmouth where the servants of the master with whom Equiano boarded waited on him as one of the family. The family's kind treatment led Equiano to become confused about his role and he attempted to change his color by washing his face repeatedly until his cheeks were rosy like his white playmate's. After spending two years at sea with Pascal, Equiano was sent to wait on Pascal's cousins, the Guerin sisters. The sisters encouraged his development by sending him to school for a formal education and by having him baptized they saw to his spiritual well-being. But Pascal who was serving during the Seven Years War took Equiano to sea again. Pascal was assigned as captain of the Namur and Equiano served with him. By the age of fourteen, and after three years in and around England, Equiano was relatively comfortable in his situation. Through his participation in maritime experiences, British life, and attaining strong friendships, gave Equiano a competence in the language and culture. This led Equiano to conclude that Pascal did not have the right to hold him in bondage. Determined that Equiano should stay enslaved Pascal sold him to Captain Doran. Doran took Equiano to Montserrat in the West Indies where he was sold to Robert King, a Philadelphia merchant. During this time Equiano was "filled with thoughts of freedom" and using his entrepreneurial skills, he attained the forty pounds necessary to purchase his freedom from King. (Samuels, 127)
On July 11, 1766 Equiano purchased his papers of manumission, and as a free man he continued his travels in the West Indies and America. He returned to America sailing under William Phillips, captain of a merchant ship whose cargo included slaves. While with Phillips , Equiano returned to Savannah where he was nearly taken into slavery for breaking a curfew for blacks. A few days later he was almost kidnapped by two white men he met on a road. Equiano soon returned to England. In England he dedicated himself to a rigorous program of self-improvement which included being trained and employed as a hairdresser and being taught the French horn and arithmetic. Equiano worked for a time for Dr. Charles Irving, a scientist whose experiments with the purification of salt water were widely known. Equiano later traveled to Italy, Turkey, Portugal and the Mediterrane |
en | N/A | N/A | I met with local drift guy Nate Hamilton last Friday for a quick photo shoot in North Dallas. Though It was tough finding a good spot to shoot during rush hour on a Friday, I finally found what I though at the time was a abandoned mechanic shop. Turns out it only looked abandoned. The owners also have another shop across the street and while I was waiting for Nate to show up, they cam over and interrogated me for a few minutes. There I was with my tripod set up, taking pics of the shop, checking to see if any of the doors were open, prowling around the back of the building, all without permission… so I guess I can’t really blame them for asking for an explanation! I proudly said I was with What Monsters Do, to no surprise, they said “who?” so I had to start name dropping. Told them I was the Marketing Director at Enkei Wheels, was shooting Nate Hamilton’s bad ass full built 240, etc. Turns out they love Enkei Wheels and a couple of the mechanics are fans of Nate’s. They gave me the go ahead to shoot and just asked that I give them a heads up next time.
Nate and team member Jake Morgan showed up minutes later, unloaded the car, and the shoot began. So let’s take a look at Nate Hamilton’s 1988 Nissan 240SX drift car! Nate has owned the 240SX since 2007 and built it from the ground up. It was his everyday driver and bone stock when he purchased it. I love seeing these type transformations. Like the hole idea that you can start with a low cost everyday beater and end up with a full blown drift machine. (The car was built by Kustomz Unltd.) I don’t have all the facts on the build but I’ve noted what I do have. Check out the pics and feel free to share! – Alex
For suspension, Nate is currently running all KSPORT products. For wheels he uses the lightweight 17×9.5 +18 Enkei RPF1 Racing Series MAT Wheels in front and 18×10.5 +15 for the rears. Though Enkei offers the RPF1 in matte black, Nate’s RPF1 wheels are custom painted black with purple accent to match the car’s color scheme.

"They proposed to eliminate all traffic mitigation provisions approved in their prior permit,'' Allcock said. "We felt that was a substantial change.''

en | N/A | N/A | 5th March, "Friends" Soundtrack is released. "If you're friends are there, then everything is alright", I could use this sentence for next guest. From Ireland, he is the owner of Just words and a tune, one of bests blogsites about Elton John: "I've been an Eltonite since the 80's really, the I'm Still Standing video made a huge impact at the time. Elton was played (a lot) on the radio in those days so it was fairly easy to catch his stuff in that format. My first album I bought though a few years later was Live In Australia. It was then I realized that Elton live was an even bigger deal than he was in the studio. If that were possible!Ever since then I've had the best of both worlds, the terrific stuff he's done in the studio and the ongoing jamboree that is Elton touring and playing live. Never a dull minute with Elton. Or a minutes break!I've been lucky enough to see Elton with the band, solo, with Ray Cooper and with Billy Joel. Each show has been very special and each time cements for me his position as the number one." Good!I asked him what it's supposed to be an eltonite, why we become eltonites. That's his point of view: "People say, why Elton?Why not, say I?In simple terms, he speaks (through Bernie's words of course) to all of us. To hearts and minds. On all topics. Love, hate, war, peace, death, birth and all matters not covered by those headings are exposed. With honesty. Topped off by the music that Elton has created that words can't describe but listening to it can. Moving beyond that and the wider picture, he's had some incredible band members to make that journey even more enjoyable. It's a myriad of material that nobody outside of the Eltonite world could even begin to grasp, so vast and colossal it is. So much to take in as another one of his great lyric writers wrote...
To pick 300 would have been hard, but 30given it my best shot and tried to explain why I've chosen the one's I've picked. I tried to avoid too much detail, anyone who knows the songs will know where I'm coming from. I listed my 30 chronologically as ordering was impossible. I did try!But what I did do was list my favourite song as it does mean a bit more than that all the others. Not much, but it says something a bit more special. doing it!
To pick a number one song is nigh on impossible, but all boxes are ticked here for me. As Elton says himself, Bernie says what he has to say. As he does for all of us. As soon as I heard this for the time on the radio...in medium wave...
When I saw this performed live on the BBC 1 special prior to the album's release it was a real ''AAAHHH' moment for me. One of the greatest riffs ever, given its space and time. A great closer for an album...
Up-tempo from Elton in the 21st Century?
Gilmour...a guitar God of course...
One of the most soulful things Elton has ever done...
Another one the great b-sides. Bernie's lyrically specialty...America...
Somebody once said that when Gus turned the fader down at the end, the vocals went on forever into the stratosphere. Where do we start, the beautiful piano from Elton with his crystal clear vocal, the beautiful guitar solo from Davey, the beautiful drumming from Nigel, the beautiful bass lines from Dee (especially on the buildup on Curtains). Bernie's lyrics...beautiful in equal measure. I could go on...

So, apart from the alleged violation of workers' rights, the bribery, the workplace safety and other allegations, the product recall issues, and the numerous other concerns that have led major pension funds, including the massive Dutch investor PGGM, to announce that they will no longer invest in the firm -- apart from all this -- what was so good about Wal-Mart's compliance?""

Because for years -- owing to its poor record on diversity -- Wal-Mart has had a similar arrangement but based on diversity targets. In other words, if diversity targets aren't met, bonuses will be reduced. One of the targets requires a number of diverse candidates to be placed in specified positions within the executives' oversight. The others are "good faith" targets. The proxy describes these: "In order to satisfy the good faith efforts component of this program, each NEO [named executive officer] must actively sponsor at least two associates and must also participate in at least two diversity-related events."
Guess what?Wal-Mart's chief diversity officer, as far as I can tell, has certified the achievement of the diversity objectives every year since they were introduced. But how challenging are these?Sponsor two associates and participate in a couple of diversity-related events?How about ensuring that no associate is paid less than an equivalent associate on the basis of gender, race, and sexuality?How about ensuring that all associates have the same chance to be promoted regardless of gender, race, and sexuality? |

Today I read “Fearful Symmetries: Rubrics and Assessment” by Sarah Webster Goodwin. You might be able to tell from her title that Goodwin is a scholar of British Romanticism, and her approach to education owes a lot to Blake’s notion of poetic or prophetic learning, which goes beyond what is known and taps into something (you guessed it) sublime or ineffable. The most engrossing part of her article detailed a particularly novel project assignment she handed a freshman class in Skidmore’s interdisciplinary Human Dilemmas seminar.
In the effort to wake up a course that had gone particularly flat, Goodwin scheduled a class visit to a gallery exhibit of works made up of everyday objects (old records, love letters) were “processed” (ground up, glued together) by the artist into sculptural objects that commented on part of the human condition or told a personal story. Following the show, Goodwin asked her students to respond both to the artist and to the semester’s course material by choosing one of the “human dilemmas” they had studied (questions regarding the nature of knowledge or the relationship between self and society, for example) and create something made up of meaningful objects from their lives that they had processed in some manner suggestive of metaphor or metonymy. She additionally asked students to write a three-page paper explaining the significance of their work.
Goodwin notes that the written commentaries were predictably uneven (reflecting, to some extent, the diverse high school backgrounds of the entering freshman class), but that all the students met the criterion of being “original and creative” (a category on the rubric that she said would be weighted more than others), and that some even surpassed her expectations and attained something she could only refer to as a certain “Je ne sais quoi.” She confesses that she still feels a certain amount of awe looking at photographs of those works and reflects, “This project went well beyond “a certain something” in the students’ creativity; they were looking backward at who they had been, and forward at who they were becoming, in a way that seemed urgent to them” (143). Goodwin’s brilliance lies in her ability to design a project that tapped into this amalgam of creative and critical thought in every single one of her students. This reinforces the truth that, despite the disparity in their educational backgrounds, all of them were equally capable of producing thoughtful and provocative artifacts.
Goodwin also offers another rubric for teachers that might help assess the ability of assignments to foster such engagement:
- The topic is engaging for the faculty member as well as the students.
- The topic leads the students to take risks, to learn some new concepts and to synthesize familiar ones.
- The topic as a certain je ne sais quoi. And most importantly,
- The topic continuesn ways that are not fully scripted, channeled or contained.
It is a good reminder that if the assignment is not interesting to the teacher (if, in essence, we already have a good idea of the results we want or expect), then the chances are low that it will bear out as a sublime learning. I am ever more encouraged to take more risks! </s> If you have any suggestions/objections about a newsletter, please let me know.

But low vertical wind shear values (the speed at which winds change route and pace with top) and heat sea floor temperatures (that help convection) are conducive for additional improvement.
Global fashions, in accordance to the JTWC, would appear to recommend a continued observe to the West (away from Karnataka-Goa coasts) into Monday winds remaining at 46 km/hr.
During this era, the potential for improvement of a ‘important’ climate system (despair or above) is assessed as low, although it doesn’t appear to rule out scope of intensification later.
It is on this context that the outlook by the IMD, in whose jurisdictional waters the system lies, that the system would get ‘extra marked’ (intensification by a spherical to a well-marked ‘low’) has to be seen. The IMD additionally has picked out a trough (an elongated space of low stress) popping up afresh over the Bay of Bengal linking its South-West Bay of Bengal (off Tamil Nadu) to the Sri Lanka coast.
The trough acts as an atmospheric reservoir to retailer moisture mopped up by the easterly winds from the Bay of Bengal that get piped into the South Peninsula as rain.
The ‘low’ within the Arabian Sea and the trough within the Bay will mix to set offls and thunderstorms, accompanied by lightning, over the complete South India in the course of the subsequent 4 days, the IMD outlook.
But it singled out South Interior Karnataka and Tamil Nadu for extreme climate, predicting remoted heavy to very heavy falls are possible throughout this era. Fairl and lightning is forecast for Madhya Maharashtra, Marathawada, Konkan and Goa on Monday and Tuesday.
A western disturbance lies already over Jammu & Kashmir on Sunday with its offspring cyclonic circulation having moved upfront, precipitating hail and thunderstorms over components of North-West India.
A western disturbance ‘induces’ an offspring circulation to kind whether it is endowed with the required depth and depth, during which case it may well impression concurrent methods within the Arabian Sea.
The offspring circulation has travelled to the East (forward of its mum or dad western disturbance) into North-West Uttar Pradesh, even as the IMD has predicted a follow-up disturbance to arrive.
Meanwhile, the IMD has pointed to a scenario the place the present ‘low’ over the Arabian Sea weakens and being changed a counterpart ‘low’ being despatched in from the Bay of Bengal. It would cross the peninsula and step in into the Arabian Sea, bringing one other wave of heavy to very rainfall over the South Peninsula and particularly alongside the West Coast later throughout this week.
The rising scenario is finest captured byciting a potential ‘low’ passing over Sri Lanka, South Peninsula and Lakshadweep within the first week of November.
Detailed IMD forecast for Sunday stated that heavy to very heavy rainfall lash remoted locations over South Interior Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Puducherry, and Kerala. It could be heavy at remoted locations over Chhattisgarh, Madhya Maharashtra, Marathawada, Konkan & Go.
Thunderstorms are possible overplains of Bengal, Odisha, Madhya Maharashtra, Marath, and Kerala.
Squally climate with winds reaching speeds of 55 km/hr are possible over East-Central Arabian Sea and adjoining Maharashtra-Karnataka-Kerala coasts. Fishermen are suggested not to enterprise into these areas.
An prolonged outlook from October 25 to 27 stated thatre possible over south India whereas it wold be scattered to pretty widespread rainfall over the hills of North-West India (thanks to the western disturbances) and remoted to scattered rainfall over East and North-East India due to their observe to the East. |

If you want to invoke an OpenEdge client with a .p, you should create a shortcut to the executable you want (_progres.exe or prowin32.exe for example) with the appropriate client command-line parameters, e.g. " -p test.p", or perhaps " -pf D:\mypath\myparams.pf", where that file contains all your client startup parameters, i.e. -S , -H, etc. Set the shortcut's "Start In" directory to be the location of the procedure, e.g. "D:\pro".

Try some of the answers posted here nginx - nginx: [emerg] bind() to [::]:80 failed
It looks like https is already in use. Use 'netstat -tulpn' to find out what is using it.

Look for the running buggy software. For me it turned out to be aria2 client.

@Deadooshka I do not have Aria2.
Probably other process is using specified port:
Get the PID of the process that already using 443. And send signal with kill command.
Aternatively you can do:
Make sure you dont use old syntax:
The above syntax will cause
Both above syntax will achieve the same thing, listening on both ipv4 and ipv6.
I don't find one programm, that uses Port 443. That's my problem.
whats the output of sudo netstat -tulpn?
Use sudo and try again please
Thats weird, do a sudo pkill nginx and then retry, Only nginx is installed as a web server right?
This helped me a lot. Make sure you don't have apache2 running =) if you do just remove it using the sudo apt remove apache2 command =_
Alternative using lsof:
Find the PID & kill the process which running on port 443
sudo kill -9 $
fuser is not installed in centos by default.
@KhomNazid then do install it first
Thank you for the answer. After running
I realised that I had apache2 running on port 80. This was probably done after I used Certbot to install SSL on the server. I removed Apache2 and the server was up and running.
This did the trick! Thank you again.
ranaonlineranaonline
Worked for me. The vagrant box I was using had apache2 installed by default and I didn't notice.
I received the above error due to accidentally repeating the listen directive twice within the same server block as follows:
resolved the problem when restarting the server: sudo service nginx start
According to stackoverflow.com/a/<DIGITS>/516864, shouldn't this only happen when using listen :443 ssl and not when using listen 443 ssl?
When I killed the nginx process bind to 80 & 443 ports, the process always reappeared with new PID.

en | N/A | N/A | INDONESIAN CHEF WILL COMPETE IN THE BOCUSE D'OR
This competition is like the World Cup in the culinary world.
Indonesia has an extraordinary culinary wealth. Each region has a different approach to spices that creates a rich culinary tradition to be proud of.
This is also reflected in the enthusiasm of professional chefs from Indonesia who want to compete in the most prestigious installation championship, the Bocuse d'Or. This opportunity comes after 10 years ago Indonesia was chosen to compete, and now the selected chefs will be branding on September 26 to 27 in France.
The readiness of Indonesian representatives in the cooking competition will also beKemenparekraf). xpressed his hope that the Indonesian representatives could impact the recognition of Indonesian food on the world stage.
"Indonesia's participation in the Bocuse d'Or competition is also a forum for the introduction of Indonesian tourism destinations, as well as the success of the 'Indonesia Spice Up the World' program. We hope that the flavors left on the tongue through Indonesian spices can inspire us to visit places of origin for culinary delights, so that this activity is beneficial not only for Indonesia's creative economy, but also for the development of Indonesian tourism," said Uno in his statement.
A post shared by Bocuse d'Or Indonesia (@bocusedorina)
Uno also hopes that this world-class competition can increase the confidence of Indonesian chefs to be more creative in their work, especially in introducing authentic Indonesian culinary flavors to the international world. This will undoubtedly affect the increasing demand for Indonesian culinary ingredients such as spices and herbs and the rising number of Indonesian menus in various restaurants, creating jobs and drive the national economy.
The Bocuse d'Or competition brings together chefs from various countries, held every two years in Lyon, France, a city known as a gastronomic center. because it is considered very prestigious by the chefs who compete.
The Indonesian team will be Chef Mandif Warokka and Nugraha Lutfi, commissioner of the Blanco par Mandif restaurant in Ubud, Bali. Chef Mandif is well known in the international culinary world with achievements such as the gold medal at Salon Culinaire Dubai 2005.
The preparation of the Indonesian team was also assisted by two professional chefs, namely Chris Salans, the chef from Mozaic in Ubud Bali, and Chef Gilles Marx as President of Bocuse d'Or Indonesia and owner of Amuz Gourmet restaurant in Jakarta. Gourmet also coached the Indonesian team in the same competition in 2011.
The stages of participating in this competition are pretty tight. The first stage is carried out nationally by countries that want to participate, then proceeds to regional stages such as Europe, Asia Pacific, and America until the best are selected to compete in the final round in Lyon.
“Bocuse d'Or is an opportunity for me to prove that Indonesian chefs are able to compete with other world-class chefs. This is an immeasurable pride,” said Mandif Warokka.
Warokka prepares a unique strategy to compete at the world level. He will use the diversity and quality of Indonesian flavors. Starting from the raw materials to the taste. This advantage is expected to impress the judges.
“, this is what we want to represent in the dishes we design. Through our food, the judges and those present can see Indonesia," said Warokka.
Nugraha Lutfi, who is still 21, has a . He hopes to play a role in helping Chef Warokka prepare his dishes.
Chef Lutfi was chosen as Warokka's assistant chef because, as a team, they must have chemistry and understand each other. Lutfi has also worked with Warokka at the Blanco par Mandif restaurant. It is hoped that the two of them can complement each other and bring medals to Indonesia.
Chris Salans, who has lived in Indonesia for more than 20 years, feels proud to see the achievements of Indonesian chefs. He believes that the capacity of chefs in Indonesia is worthy of competing in global competitions such as the Bocuse d'Or.
"The election of Indonesia to enter the final round of the Bocuse d'Or 2021 is a reflection of the current capacity of Indonesian chefs. After ten years ago, bringing the Indonesian team to Lyon, I believe Indonesia is ready to return to aiming for the podium of the cooking competition,” said Marx.
This team also received support from PT Time International. This well-known watch distributor believes that the achievements of Indonesian chefs in international events can be proud in the future.

en | N/A | N/A | Family of 8 displaced by
A family of 8 in Independence spent a 4th night in a hotel room after being forced from their home after a fire.
The fire broke out Monday night around 8 at the Dorsey family's home on 8th Ave. NE in Independence.
No-one was home at the time but the fire caused heavy smoke damage - making it unlivablbut the Dorseys say they're grateful everyone's okay and say they're thankful for so much support over the last three days.
Thursday was Tallan Dorsey's 7th birthday.
He's a big fan of Donatello - the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.
This birthday will be a memorable one - because his family can't celebrate it at home.
Smoke from a fire heavily damaged it.
"I opened the door and I couldn't see anything. There was just smoke everywhere. I couldn't breathe. I was just worried about getting the animals out, we got em out and called 911," said Brandon Dorsey, Tallan's father.
Now, the family of 8 is living out of a hotel.
Their insurance adjuster is supposed to come by on Friday.
But Tallan, sister Mya, brother Brayden, sister Lillyann, older brother Ethan, and younger brother Tay, and their various pets, can't stay at home, thanks to all the soot and smell of monday's fire.
"The main thing is the hotel room. Everybody's in there, they have nothing to do. They don't have their regular activities. The older boys like their XBox and that's gone. Our pets are gone, too. You can't keep dogs at the hotel so it just seems we're not a family right now," said Brandon Dorsey.
The Dorseys were left with literally the clothes on their back. They say they're so grateful for the community's support since the fire.
"They're amazing. I'm full-time in school, too and I work full-time and we have 6 kids. We stick to ourselves but that night with fire trucks here, there were 2 girls who went to Wal-Mart and bought diapers and pajamas for the kids. The way they stepped up surprised me but I wouldn't have expected anything less," said mother, Jessi Dorsey.
"One thing my oldest boy got out. It was a poem for his mom," said Brandon Dorsey, holding the framed poem.
The family is holding on to each other as they wait to find out when they might be able to get back inside what Jessi calls her dream home.
"The worst part is we worked hard for this. With 6 kids, we worked hard for what we did have and in 5 minutes, years worth of work are gone. It's pretty sore," said Jessi Dorsey.
The Dorseys bought the home last spring.
A fund has been set up at Bank Iowa in Independence to help the family.
The Independence School District is also accepting donations for the Dorsey family at East and West Elementary Schools, where the boys attend school. |

</s> Mass Gathering Detective System
The idea of this system is to detect if a mass gathering exists in a room. In the past, people wore masks. However,rapidly. We do not believe that large gatherings of people will remain inappropriate until the Coronavirus has completely disappeared. So we came up with the idea and tried to build it.
System with Multiple Subsystems
The system consists of several important features to function correctly. The system will have a subsystem that detects the number of people in a room, a subsystem that calculates the size of a room, a method to make several subsystems communicate with each other(share data with each other). Those statistics that are generated by each subsystem are correlated to determine if the mass gathering exists.
* Humidity and Temperature may be too hard to measure and those measurements take time to change just a little, so it is hard to capture and might not be that useful.
* Another good idea is to use CO2 sensor to see if huge activity is held in a room and many people are participating. I do not know if this way is efficient or not.
Counting People in a Room
Our initial thought is to use two IR sensors, one is outside the room, and another is inside the room. If the one outside the room finds the person first, then the person is entering the room. Otherwise, the person is exiting the room.
Calculating Size of a Room
Ultrasonic might not be able to detect distances over 8 meters.
https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/tfmini---micro-lidar-module-hookup-guide/all
We can use two modules or we can rotate just one to measure the size of a room.
Sharing Data through Multiple Subsystems
Multiple Arduinos/RPIs communicate with each other using nRF. We can use various types of communication modules like Bluetooth module, nRF24L01, etc. For our problem we can effectively use nRF. And we can set which one is master and which all are slave. A single unit can receive from 6 other modules and vice versa.
The cost of building this system is awaiting to be calculated.

While the game does a good job of depicting a moody, sombre, ruined and gritty post-apocalyptic wasteland to explore, it’s interspersed with a lot of colour and shining neon. While some of the areas may be a little dull the mission locations are well realised and make for a good backdrop to the killing. Lighting and shadows are used to good effect and the day / night cycle can provide some beautiful landscapes at times.
On the Xbox One X it is smooth, bright, colourful (despite the amount of brown/beige) and even in the most hectic scenes stays true to its 60fps target. I would have liked the option to play in 4k, as some objects look a little muddied and blurry in 1080p but there’s no doubt that running at a higher frame rate is advantageous given the speed and intensity of the gameplay. Despite the lack of higher resolution the level of detail is still ok, but although character models are good, the post-apocalyptic setting shouldn’t be an excuse to not really put in anything interesting to look at. There is evidence of some assets being reused and I encountered a couple of instances of scenery pop-in while playing but only when travelling at high speed in my vehicle through densely populated areas. Menus are slow to respond which is frustrating, and should have been polished a bit better.

Robert F5VHN </s> How is digital signage changing the world of food businesses?
There have been a lot of debate about how conventional media will sustain the digital media storm, but we have the stats that say otherwise. A recent study shows that by 2023 digital signage business will be worth over 32.84 billion USD and that’s something most business owners are ardently looking forward to.
Here’s what our research says about digital signage in restro businesses –
Many restaurants have been utilizing these digital screens in a really smart way. They have installed bigger screens in the lounge and waiting areas. Narrowcasting latest games, news content, weather information and celebrity gossip has indeed succeeded in keeping their patrons occupied.
Many establishments are also using digital screens inside their staff areas. This keeps a real time tab on check-ins and check-outs. It helps the staff keep an eye on the inventory and avoid unpleasant surprises. Even the conventional ticketing system at the kitchen is gradually fading away, thanks to the more evolved real-time ticket updating and digital ordering system. You can see this happen at most McDonald’s and Wendy’s outlets across the country.
The out of home displays can carry your message forward to distant places. From hostel diners to train stations, you can find your brand amidst a crowd of potential customers. Since the recall value is much higher for digital displays and LED billboards, more people pay attention to your CTA. Combine your latest deals with social networking content from your most popular social media channels. That is one way to upsell your brand to all sections of the population.
Digital signage is secure. WordPress has introduced a number of new plugins to help people maintain digital sign content. Being the leading CMS platform, it has paid extra attention to security so no one can hack |
