Taymour Tamaddon has some big shoes to fill.
Last quarter Tamaddon took over the now-$5.8-billion T. Rowe Price Health Sciences Fund [profile] after the resignation of PM Kris Jenner and analysts Mark Bussard and Graham McPhail. Morningstar subsequently downgraded the mutual fund from Gold to Neutral thanks to worries about the change-up. Now the Wall Street Journal's worried, too.
In yesterday's monthly investing in funds Journal Report, Daisy Maxey dives deep into the fund and the PM change, noting that Morningstar isn't the only one expressing concern. S&P Capital IQ downgraded the fun from five stars to four. | 2019-04-26T08:47:19 | http://mfwire.com/article.asp?storyID=43534&wireID=2&r=Monday&template=article |
CFlow is your virtual accountant which makes no mistakes, never misses a deadline, saves your time & money!
We liked it a lot. So we gave it charisma, beauty and simplicity.
CFlow came to Flair Digital with a great product but no face. The goal was to create a visually appealing design that would induce trust and reliability, while at the same time ensure smooth and intuitive user journey through complex reporting and declaration activities.
The final result was light and simple user interface with clear call to action icons and explanatory pop-ups, allowing to quickly grasp and navigate the complex procedures of revenue declarations.
Core team at Flair Digital started off as freelancers a long time ago, which helped them understand the problem of doing tax returns with little knowledge of accounting related nuances. This is why we were delighted to work on a project that we knew will help a lot of people.
Long hours of brainstorming and sketching user journeys together with accountants, lawyers, designers and developers led to a solution that is easy to use, visually appealing, and does your tax returns for you.
Filling in your own tax returns is quite a brain teaser. Completing logbooks of revenues, expenditures, calculating taxes, collecting invoices, declaring VAT, income, and submitting all of it using the right forms is a headache that takes you away from your core business.
Flair Digital succeeded at bundling it all into a light and crisp all-in-one solution that is easily customisable and provides guidance in the complex world of accounting.
One of the key goals of CFlow was to ensure that the UI/UX would be so simple that users could complete their yearly tax returns on their way back home on a metro using only a mobile phone or a tablet.
Challenge accepted and mission accomplished. All key features in a simple step by step guide, providing the same result and giving the same feeling of light and minimalistic design, ensuring trust and reliability.
CFlow is the first and only virtual accounting system in Lithuania, which has replaced the outdated way of managing freelancers accounting reports. After 4 months with Flair Digital, CFlow’s visual idenity was born. Light and beautiful from day one.
The team at Flair Digital were recommended to us and I have to say, they superseeded our highest expectations. All the work was done on time and was done to the highest standard. I will be sure to recomend them any chance I get and will only use them in my future ventures. | 2019-04-21T10:40:57 | https://flairdigital.co/cflow |

Mutations in bone stem cells can impair bone metabolism and regeneration. Osteogenesis imperfect (OI) is the most common form of genetic bone disease and characterized by bone fragility with clinical manifestations varying from a mild increase in fractures to severe bone deformities and death. Individuals with OI have mutations that alter procollagen structure or production and lead to abnormal collagen fibril formation disrupting bone development and renewal. Treatment options for OI are limited and do not alleviate the complications seen in OI. Our recent work has demonstrated that AAV gene targeting vectors can disrupt the mutant collagen alleles that cause OI and that targeted cells produced normal collagen and formed bone. While these results indicate the effectiveness of genomic editing with targeting frequencies approaching 1%, an enhancement of AAV gene targeting is required to provide more robust in vivo genetic manipulations. Here we will expand upon our successes and propose three lines of investigations to develop a therapeutic approach for patients with inherited bone disease. First we will modify collagen genes using a CRISPR-AAV system that will allow for the disruption or correction of genes that cause OI in vivo. Second, we will investigate whether genetically corrected bone stem cells have a growth advantage in vivo and how TGF-beta signaling affects the extra-skeletal manifestations of bone disease. Finally we will conduct a series of experiments in a preclinical rabbit model to establish the optimal gene targeting delivery protocol. Successful completion of this proposal will lead to an improved understand of TGF-beta signaling and stem cell kinetics in bone and advance AAV gene targeting toward a clinical trial.
This project addresses several key issues central to the success of gene therapy and the treatment of inherited bone diseases. These include the correction of genetic mutations, improve our understanding of the interactions between cells in the bone, and improve our understanding of cell signaling on bone and other tissues. The strategies developed during the course of this research could be applied to a variety of other stem cells types and used to treat many other disorders. | 2019-04-21T12:53:06 | http://grantome.com/grant/NIH/R01-AR067707-03 |

Hotels rely on third-party vendors to help run their properties efficiently, and often must give them access to sensitive guest data. This leaves hotels vulnerable to cyber attacks; they’re only as secure as their vendors are, and may find themselves directly liable for a data breach. My partner Bob Braun, senior member of JMBM’s Global Hospitality Group® and co-chair of JMBM’s Cybersecurity and Privacy Group, discusses recent hotel cybersecurity breaches and how hotel owners can protect themselves.
July was another notable month for hotel data breaches – on a single day, several well-known hotel brands and managers, including Four Seasons, Trump Hotels, Hard Rock Hotels & Casinos and Loews Hotels all announced that customer data may have been compromised as a result of a security failure. Each of the incidents is related to Sabre Hospitality Solutions’ credit card data breach in its SynXis hotel-reservations system, which Sabre first announced in a quarterly filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 17. Based on Sabre’s investigation, Sabre announced that the breach was contained to “a limited subset of hotel reservations,” but the incident did allow an unauthorized party to access cardholder names, payment card numbers, card expiration dates, card security codes for some, and, in some cases, guest name, email, phone number and address.
Moreover, the duration of the breach was long quite long. Sabre’s investigation determined that the unauthorized party first obtained access to payment card and other reservation information on August 10, 2016, and the last access to payment card information was on March 9, 2017. The hackers had potential access for seven months.
Hotel owners and consumers are, unfortunately, common victims of security breaches – all of the major hotel brands and managers have been breached, often multiple times. In analyzing the breaches, there is something that is common to almost all incidents: the vulnerability was not with a hotel, its manager or brand, but with a vendor.
Hotels are not alone, of course in relying on vendors. Companies in other high threat industries like finance, retail, and healthcare regularly work with third party vendors, and these third parties commonly have access to their clients’ systems and may share or store clients’ sensitive and highly-valued data. But this Sabre breach (and those of the past several years) shows us that no matter how well-protected a hotel is from a direct cyberattack, its networks and data may still be easily accessed through third parties with weaker cybersecurity protections. In one of the most famous (or infamous) breaches, the 2013 breach of Target, cybercriminals were able to steal the retailer’s sensitive data by accessing its systems with credentials stolen from a vendor responsible for Target’s HVAC systems. Similarly, in 2017, thieves stole Netflix’s “Orange is the New Black” episodes from an audio post-production company, not from Netflix itself.
The typical hotel management or franchise agreement requires the owner to abide by or adopt data security policies and procedures in conformance with the brand’s or manager’s standards and to comply with data security laws and regulations. As a result, even where an incident is the result of the manager’s or brand’s failure to adopt or maintain appropriate standards, the owner will likely be directly liable for a breach, and may be obligated to indemnify the brand or manager for any claims arising from a breach.
Hotel owners are at a particular disadvantage compared to other companies, since hotel brands and mangers typically select vendors, like Sabre, for multiple properties and often for an entire brand. Hotel owners may have little, if any say, in the vendor, the terms of engagement, and the impact of a breach. However, under the typical hotel management or franchise agreement, the hotel owner is required to bear the cost of a breach, whether in terms of direct costs (including notifying potential victims and the increased cost of cyberliability insurance) and the indirect cost of diminished trust in the hotel.
Review data security policies and procedures critically, and require changes where the policies don’t reflect current laws and regulations and, most importantly, current cyber-threats. Training programs should include a strong cybersecurity and monitoring for implementation and effectiveness. Most incidents can be traced to human error or malicious intent, not solely to technical systems.
Require brands and managers to impose security requirements on vendors and to ensure that vendors take responsibility for the cost of a breach.
Analyze cybersecurity policies to confirm that they adequately cover direct and third party costs of breaches. Since insurance is often one area where a hotel owner has greater control, it can be used as a lever to create a more secure environment.
Require that brands and managers develop and test effective backup systems; while theft of data is expensive and embarrassing, newer strains of ransomware, wiperware, and fileless malware have the ability to destroy business records, and only a functional backup system can protect the hotel and its business.
JMBM’s Global Hospitality Group® works with the JMBM Cybersecurity and Privacy Group to help clients analyze risk and develop response plans and other procedures to reduce vulnerability to data breaches. For more information, contact Bob Braun at [email protected].

What are the benefits of underground power?
The first stage in each zone requires connection pillars to be installed in every street. Each pillar will supply at least two properties and are typically installed just inside the front boundary of every second property. The installation contractors will assess the existing infrastructure to ensure the pillar location is both practical and appropriate. The location of each connection pillar plays an important role in effective power delivery to the entire project area.
What will the connection pillar look like?
Regular boundary connection pillars (mini pillars) are small green domes, approximately 250mm in diameter. In approximately 10 per cent of cases, a universal connection pillar (uni pillar) will need to be installed. These pillars are slightly larger, with a diameter of 400mm, as they contain the circuit control equipment. These pillars have predetermined locations integral to the system circuitry design.
Residents should direct any questions, queries or concerns to the contractor assigned your project area.
The first step in establishing an underground connection to each property is installing the underground cable. Each property that currently has an overhead wire will have an underground cable installed from the meter box to a new connection pillar. Residents will receive a notification from area contractor before any work begins. The cable installation is fairly non-invasive but some verge or front garden disruption may occur. The condition of verges and work areas will be recorded before work begins. Issues or concerns can be raised with your project area contractor. In some cases, power outages may be required, and residents will be notified of the process and outage times.
On completion of stage one and two, changeovers will commence. Each property's connection to the overhead system will be switched off and the underground connection switched on. Residents will be notified of the process, estimated power outage times or impacts before the changeover begins. In some cases, multiple outages may be required.
The fourth stage is the removal of overhead poles and wires. This will take place when all properties in the project area have been connected to the underground system and removed from the overhead circuit. Some poles and wires may need to remain for longer as they continue to supply other streets yet to be switched to the underground system. he fourth stage is the removal of overhead poles and wires.This will take place when all properties in the project area have been connected to the underground system and removed from the overhead circuit.

We had preconceptions of what to expect from Dead Island. We had expected a good looking game with shallow game play and a dodgy storyline where 3 other friends could join you for a Zombie bash-fest. We were partly right. Dead Island does look good – from the detail in the main characters and environment to the blood splatters and the odd blood-stained markings on the various walls. The story is a bit loose – no real explanation to how a Zombie outbreak started on Banoi is given but in some way, that just adds to the mystery and excitement.
You start off picking your character from one of 4 ‘immune’ survivors to the Zombie curse where one bite turns you into the undead with a sun tan. We opted to play as Xian Mei, a hotel employee who is skilled in sharp objects! Each character has their own specialist skills ranging from blunt objects, throwing objects and guns. As guns are bit too obvious, we thought the up-close and personal approach with something long and sharp was a good idea.
The story is the same no matter who you play as – a bit of a negative for replay value but then the missions kicked in and the scope of Dead Island and the size of Banoi kicked in. Starting off on the first of 3 large maps, we had to rescue the lifeguard from a small group of zombies. After doing so we were rewarded with his eternal friendship and some xp to help towards a level-up. Talk to some of the survivors in the nearby shack and there’s a few more missions to complete alongside the main quest. Completing each mission earns various rewards from weapons to cash to trade items or even mod plans so you can upgrade your favourite weapon to a certain specification.
The more of Dead Island we played, the more it felt like Fallout – travelling here and there to help folk to upgrade and find better weapons and unlock new areas. There’s definitely a few other games’ ideas thrown into the Dead Island mix. Aside from Fallout, there’s the weapon collection/upgrade concept like Borderlands has (constantly comparing what you have to the alternative for different perks) and the obvious Zombie-related games of Dead Rising and Left for Dead (for the zombie hoard versus one player and the co-op, respectively).
The mix of those games ties in well to produce one rather large and pleasing game which allows the freedom to roam around the various maps while keeping the players interested in the story and concept by adding various Zombies and quests that need to be completed to keep you going further.
The Zombies themselves provide that all-important fear factor, especially when in a tight space or when your weapon is splintering into pieces and not dealing as much damage. The wails of the Infected before they run toward you can be terrifying if you are low on health and a bit lost but they are nothing compared to the sight of a Ram Zombie charging at you with nowhere to hide!
But it’s not all perfect – some of the cut scenes are generic and show the full 4 members of the playable characters even if you are playing on your own; the supplies that can be looted from the island are replenished far too quickly which takes some of the fun and sense of achievement out of it when you find something you need to make a decent mod weapon; and after a while, it gets fairly repetitive – bashing Zombies to help people who are too dim to help themselves only to gain a few xp points – but isn’t that what some people said about Fallout?
The levelling up system is fine – reaching the next level allows you to add a bonus to your characters skill set – from being more dangerous with their weapons to unleashing a powerful rage attack to clear house on the mass of Zombies, etc. Also you can modify and upgrade your weapons using carefully located work benches. Hand over some cash to – er, the Work Bench! – and you can fix your weapon, upgrade it to make it deadlier or, if you have the right blueprint and parts, modify it to a certain spec – our favourite so far is the shock mod to our Machete – not only can we slice and dice but any non-fatal hits will now electrocute the Zombies as well!
By far, Dead Island is a good game – it might not be everyone’s cup of tea but it ticked a lot of boxes for us. We are expecting some more online features in the future to add to the drop-in online co-op mode which would really help Dead Island stand out a bit more. There’s simply no other feeling that having an Infected hurtle towards you and you take off its head with one well timed swoop with a nice sharp blade, seeing it crumble helplessly to the floor leaving you to admire the view from Banoi beach! | 2019-04-25T08:41:15 | http://playeject.com/video-game-review/dead-island-game-review |
For this card I used the coordinating Flip Card die which is super handy and has great instructions on the back to follow. So that gave me the card base. To add the branch/leaf background I used a piece of Canson watercolor paper and Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolors. I created little leaf shapes with my watercolor brush using several green paints. Then add lines to each group, which acts as branches. I also used some Prismacolor pencils to define my lines a little more and add some shading and texture to the leaf painting.
I stamped the sloths on a different piece of cardstock then used Copic Markers to color them in. I was inspired by the colors on the packaging which I thought went well with all the green I had already used. I fussy cut the Sloths out then used a black marker to ink the edges.
I stamped the 2 sentiments on to a piece of wood paneling cardstock using white embossing powder then stamped and colored the back side of the sloths with the same colors of Copic Markers. I could of replicated the vine/leaf design from the front but for this one I didn't go that route. I do like to keep the insides more clean and simple. | 2019-04-21T20:03:04 | https://www.jessicamayday.com/2019/03/sloth-flip-card-art-impressions-blog.html |
This roadmap is an update of the 2009 IEA CCS Technology Roadmap. The energy landscape has shifted between 2009 and 2013 and new insights into the challenges and needs of CCS have been learned. This CCS roadmap aims at assisting governments and industry in integrating CCS in their emissions reduction strategies and in creating the conditions for scaled-up deployment of all three components of the CCS chain: CO2 capture, transport and storage. To get us onto the right pathway, this roadmap highlights seven key actions needed in the next seven years to create a solid foundation for deployment of CCS starting by 2020. These near-term actions are directly relevant for government and industry decision-makers today. Perhaps the most critical task is to create business cases for the uptake of CCS. This will require decisive action from governments, but also continued engagement of the industry in a long-term perspective.
Nearly one-third of global energy and one-quarter of worldwide carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are attributable to industrial activities that are not in the power generation sector. If climate change is to be successfully tackled, these sectors will need to transform the way they use energy and significantly reduce their CO2 emissions. In sectors such as iron and steel, oil refining, cement and chemicals and petrochemicals, emission can be reduced through efficiency improvements and integration of low carbon energy sources. Crucially, however, carbon capture and storage (CCS) has been identified as the only large-scale mitigation option available that can deliver the additional CO2 emissions reductions that would be necessary to meet the climate goals in 2050.
This roadmap shows that CCS is a key cost-effective option for reducing CO2 emissions in large energy-intensive industries. In fact, much of the promising short-term potential for CCS globally lies not in the power sector but in industrial activities that currently vent highly pure streams of CO2. These activities include hydrogen production for fertilisers or fuel, bioethanol production and natural gas sweetening. Most studies on the potential application of CCS have focused on the power sector, however, even though all existing operational large-scale demonstrations of CCS are in industrial applications. In the longer-term, half of the global economic deployment for CCS by 2050 is shown to be in industrial applications. In certain sectors CCS is shown to be of particular relevance in developing countries, where it could be a highly cost-competitive emissions abatement option, even in the near term.
This technology roadmap builds on the initial IEA roadmap on CCS and also the technology roadmap for the cement sector developed by the IEA and the Cement Sustainability Initiative of the World Business Council for Sustainable Development. It paves the way for low-carbon industrial growth in developed and developing countries by providing a vision of CCS in industrial applications up to 2050.
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is recognised as being amongst the technologies with the greatest potential for achieving carbon dioxide emissions savings. In support of advancing global efforts to demonstrate and deploy large-scale integrated CCS projects, the Carbon Capture, Use and Storage Action Group (CCUS AG) presented seven substantive recommendations to Energy Ministers at the second Clean Energy Ministerial (CEM 2, Abu Dhabi, April 2011). The recommendations set out key actions in CCS financing, industrial applications, CO2 storage, regulation and knowledge sharing, aimed at closing the gap between current CCS development and deployment, and the progress required to achieve the level of ambition associated with CCS technologies.
This report provides an update of progress made by the twelve CCUS AG Governments that agreed to advance progress against the 2011 recommendations by the third CEM in London, April 2012 (CEM 3).
Developed by the International Energy Agency (IEA) and the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), the Technology Roadmap: Carbon Capture and Storage in Industrial Applications, paves the way for low-carbon industrial growth in developed and developing countries by providing a vision of industrial CCS up to 2050. Its insights will help policy makers evaluate the benefits of CCS technology and help them make informed decisions. It also offers investors a much-needed assessment of the potential for CCS in industry, an application that has been neglected.
Implementing CCS in industrial sectors still has many barriers, which need to be overcome. Specific technology gaps need to be bridged, incentive policy frameworks need to be tailored to each sector according to technology maturity, with special emphasis on making sufficient capital available in developing countries, capacity building and education programs need to be developed and international collaboration expanded and strengthened.
The International Energy Agency (IEA) considers carbon capture and storage (CCS) a crucial part of worldwide efforts to limit global warming by reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The IEA has estimated that the broad deployment of low-carbon energy technologies could reduce projected 2050 emissions to half 2005 levels – and that CCS could contribute about one-fifth of those reductions. Reaching that goal, however, would require around 100 CCS projects to be implemented by 2020 and over 3000 by 2050.
The IEA's CCS Review collates contributions by national and regional governments, as well as leading organisations engaged in CCS regulatory activities. Produced bi-annually, the CCS Review serves as a resource for regulators and other stakeholders involved in developing CCS legal and regulatory frameworks worldwide.
Each contribution provides a short summary of recent and anticipated CCS regulatory developments within a given country, region or by a specific organisation. Each edition of the CCS Review will also highlight a particular regulatory theme and include a brief IEA analysis of key advances and trends.
The first edition was released on 22 October 2010 and focuses on CCS legal and regulatory matters.
The second edition was released on 25 May 2011 and focuses on long-term liability for stored CO2.
Two years after the G8 leaders commitment to the broad deployment of carbon capture and storage (CCS) by 2020, significant progress has been made towards commercialisation of CCS technologies. Yet the 2008 Hokkaido G8 recommendation to launch 20 large-scale CCS demonstration projects by 2010 remains a challenge and will require that governments and industry accelerate the pace toward achieving this critical goal. This is one of the main findings of a new report by the International Energy Agency (IEA), the Carbon Sequestration Leadership Forum (CSLF), and the Global CCS Institute, to be presented to G8 leaders at their June Summit in Muskoka, Canada.
The possible inclusion of CCS projects under the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) raises a number of issues, including how to deal with potential leaks of CO2 and associated permanence and liability issues, what an appropriate project boundary is, how to deal with CDM-“leakage” (i.e. emissions resulting from the project activity beyond its boundaries) and what the possible impact of including CCS would be on the broad CDM portfolio. This paper assesses these issues. | 2019-04-26T16:09:14 | https://www.globalccsinstitute.com/resources/publications-reports-research/?filter=international-energy-agency-iea&type=organisation |

Popular cryptocurrency exchange platform BitMEX wants to expand into the derivatives products sector. Speaking on April 12 in an interview with analyst Luke Martin on the Venture Coinist Podcast channel, Arthur Hayes, co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of BitMEX, spoke on various subjects on his entrepreneurial journey and how BitMEX plans to stay relevant in the dynamic crypto space.
In the interview, Hayes gave glowing remarks on Bitcoin, and its role on the exchange’s success over the past few years. He pointed out that BitMEX only takes Bitcoin as collateral, which allows the exchange to process transactions without third-party or human interventions and as thus, can easily onboard customers within minutes.
Trading options are financial derivatives that give investors the opportunity to hedge their positions on a specific asset. More specifically, a trader can use an option to purchase or sell a stated amount of an asset at a specific price in the future.
Founded in Hong Kong 2014, BitMEX has grown to become especially popular among Asian investors and traders. As of this writing, the exchange is ranked 3rd among exchanges in the world by reported volume, with $1.065 billion traded over the past 24 hours.
Also, the CEO fielded questions about one of the most-asked questions about BitMEX’s operation; whether or not they will be adding another crypto asset to their catalog.
However, while there are tons of new in-house tokens being listed by various crypto exchange platforms, the exchange has been notably fixed on keeping a tight-fisted approach to the token listing. Currently, BitMEX’s list of cryptocurrencies includes Bitcoin (BTC), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), XRP, and Litecoin (LTC). In the podcast, Luke asked Hayes whether BitMEX would be adding any other digital assets to its listing.
Hayes answered in the negative for now, stating that derivatives will require a sufficient amount of liquidity in the spot market. He pointed out that if BitMEX should simply list a random coin, the market makers wouldn’t be able to hedge the risks, noting that Binance (another crypto exchange platform), already has a wide variety of coins where market makers want to price a derivative. According to him, a case such as this will make the exchange spread too wide, and this scenario won’t be suitable for the exchange’s clients.
Hayes said that when his company decides to add a new product, they would like for market makers to make “good type prices” for their clients. He pointed out that this same reason is why BitMEX won’t have as many coins in its listing as Binance does.

Patting is a straightforward form of Chinese Massage Therapy for keep-fit enthusiasts falling into the category of External (Wei Dan) Qigong. Its effects can be somewhat more profound than simple skin rubbing approaches in the treatment of underlying conditions. Patting helps to strengthen the bones and tendons, encourages the development of muscle-tissue, lubricates joints, enhances the circulation of the blood and improves the metabolic functions. Patting, when applied to the torso, can improve the functions of the internal organs.
The exercises involve oneself only and the participatory activity thus generated leads to patting being considered superior to and more effective than ‘passive massage’ (i.e. massage which is performed upon you by third parties). After such exercises the body feels ‘lighter’ and more comfortable and the consciousness feels clearer. For more advanced or ‘serious’ patting enthusiasts a number of simple technical aids exist including sand and rice-bags.
These can be performed with the palm, bottom of the fist or the simple equipment mentioned above. The exercises can be performed both walking and standing by assuming the following body positions.
Drop your shoulders and elbows and smile. With your left palm pat the left-top of your head from front to rear 50 times then repeat the exercise 50 times with your right palm on the right-top similarly. Next do the same to the right and left sides of your head, keeping your mind calm and your breathing natural throughout.
Regular practice prevents and treats dizziness, headaches and deficiencies in blood supply to this area.
Using the same starting instructions pat each of the four sides of the left arm with the right palm from top-to-bottom 25 times in sequences of 5×5 to make 100 ‘pats’ in all before repeating the same sequence with the left palm on the right arm.
Regular practice prevents and treats poor muscle-growth of the upper arm, cyanosis of the lower arm and partial paralysis of the arm.
Standing erect, raise the left leg until it is at right angles to the right leg, using a chair, rail, fence, table or other convenient object for this purpose. Pat the leg on all four sides from thigh to foot in similar 5×5 sequences as outlined in 2 (above) then repeat the exercise with the other leg. When patting in sequences go from light to heavy within each round.
Regular practice prevents and treats numbness and lack of feeling in the lower limbs, maldevelopment of the leg muscles (and their paralysis and partial paralysis) and can help remedy certain walking difficulties (1).

This page gives the lowest temperature for each year in Anchorage and the date that it happened. A date with a plus sign beside it means the lowest temperature also occurred on at least one other day earlier that year.
These records were observed at the Ted Stevens International Airport near downtown Anchorage and go back to 1954. The lowest temperature measured during that time was -34 degrees Fahrenheit (-37 Celsius) on January 05, 1975. | 2019-04-20T23:10:34 | https://www.currentresults.com/Yearly-Weather/USA/AK/Anchorage/extreme-annual-anchorage-low-temperature.php |

I know I have been somewhat quiet recently, but it's time for me to speak up again and throw out my two cents.
I'll start by saying this: Whether or not the end is near, there is a change in the winds and we must be prepared for difficult times ahead.
As I have stated in previous threads, the average number of earthquakes greater than 6.0 have increased approximately 40% (+/- 5%) worldwide since 1989. Now the experts say, quakes of magnitude 5.5 and higher have not been effected by the increase in technology, so this is a physiological change in the earth itself and not a mere increase of information.
We have seen quakes such that caused the 2004 tsunami, the China quake . . . etc.
. . . there were actually 5 major earthquakes around the world yesterday. One was the Iran earthquake. There was also a 6.4 in the Mid-Atlantic Ridge north of Brazil, a 5.8 in Chile, a 6.9 in Japan, and a 6.6 in Indonesia. The quakes in Japan and Indonesia happened within minutes of each other.
Earthquake activity has increased significantly in the Southern California region and Northwest coast region. The Northwest coast activity is significant to the Cascadia Fault mentioned below in the flood section.
Worldwide there have been such floods as the 2004 Indian ocean Tsunami estimated to have killed over a quarter-million people in 11 countries making 2004 the deadliest quake year in over 450 years. The quake that triggered the tsunami is the second largest earthquake ever recorded on a seismograph.
Earlier this year the Myanmar Cyclone killed an unknown number, though estimated anywhere from 100,000 - 200,000. Not far off from the 2004 tsunami . . . making this decade one of the deadliest (for natural disasters) in centuries.
The Cascadia fault line off the Northwest Coast of the U.S. has caused at least 3 major tsunamis according to research. These tsunamis are considered to be equal in power to the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. Remember this region has seen an increase in activity over the last year or so.
Another physiological change is the undeniable fact of global warming. Now it may be the mere natural fluctuation of the earth, but for now we, as a planet, are heating up.
Warmer waters improve hurricane strength and as a result we have seen such hurricanes as Katrina/Rita and Gustav/Ike devastating the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico regions. You may wonder why not more hurricanes if the water is so ripe, well the hurricane must first form. Once formed we see stronger, longer lasting hurricanes due to the waters warmth.
The next solar polarity change is expected to be 30% stronger than the last one. Occurring about every 9-12 years causing sun spots and solar flares and causing magnetic disruptions the strength of this coming one, 2012-2013, is expected to be strong enough to magnetically wipe out satellites and for periods radio communications.

I did not speculate or use scripture, I wanted to simply present unbiased facts of the happenings in our world. I will leave you to decide what scripture is relevant to these facts on your own and allow you to speculate.
I could have also added a lot more information to this, but I felt like simply posting the highlights. You are more than welcome to post other events you feel important.
Thanks for a very interesting thread. You brought all the latest info on the Last Days together!!!
You have proved that our Creator is preparing our Mother World for the biggest and most severe period in our history, namely the Final Tribulation.
What is very interesting for me is the dramatic changes since 1987 -1989, which I regard as the start of the Last Days, because of the explosion in knowledge.
1986/87 – aSabbatical Year. This Sabbatical year had 3 solar eclipses and 2 lunar eclipses.
I regard this as the year the End of the End Times (Last Days) started.
If people do not realize now that it will be only a few years before the Final Tribulation starts, they will never realize it. !!!
True Christians do not have to fear the Tribulation, our Lord will guide and protect us untill the Rapture !!!
The ten regions are not yet completed, they should be in +- 3 years.
Where to start I'll start by saying this: Whether or not the end is near, there is a change in the winds and we must be prepared for difficult times ahead.
I would like to address your earthquake and other physical data.
Are Earthquakes Really on the Increase? We continue to be asked by many people throughout the world if earthquakes are on the increase. Although it may seem that we are having more earthquakes, earthquakes of magnitude 7.0 or greater have remained fairly constant. A partial explanation may lie in the fact that in the last twenty years, we have definitely had an increase in the number of earthquakes we have been able to locate each year. This is because of the tremendous increase in the number of seismograph stations in the world and the many improvements in global communications. In 1931, there were about 350 stations operating in the world; today, there are more than 8,000 stations and the data now comes in rapidly from these stations by electronic mail, internet and satellite. This increase in the number of stations and the more timely receipt of data has allowed us and other seismological centers to locate earthquakes more rapidly and to locate many small earthquakes which were undetected in earlier years. The NEIC now locates about 20,000 earthquakes each year or approximately 50 per day. Also, because of the improvements in communications and the increased interest in the environment and natural disasters, the public now learns about more earthquakes. According to long-term records (since about 1900), we expect about 17 major earthquakes (7.0 - 7.9) and one great earthquake (8.0 or above) in any given year.
I'd also add that the global reach of the media leads to an increase in reported earthquakes.
You say magnitude 6.0 earthquakes have increased 40% since 1989. Looking at the actual number from the USGS, I don’t see how you are arriving at your conclusion. Just for fun I calculated an average of the years 1988-1997 and 1998-2007. The former averages 129 >mag 6 quakes and the latter 10 year period averages 139. So we get a increase of 8% (which I don’t think is statistically significant). So how did you get your numbers? If you look at 1989 versus 2007 you get a huge increase (79 in '89, 178 in '07). Looks promising, except that there were 183 in '95, 166 in '92. So basically we don't seem to have a legitimate trend.
You mention experts. Who are they? The USGS has experts and they don’t seem to agree with you. I see a whole lot of unsubstantiated speculation for someone providing the "facts".
So? Why is this important? The earth’s crust is very dynamic. All these occurred in active continental margins. You are going to need better information than this.
So, if it’s periodic why does that make the one that is supposedly due any more significant than any previous one or any future one.
Earthquake activity has increased significantly in the Southern California region and Northwest coast region. The Northwest coast activity is significant to the Cascadia Fault mentioned below in the flood section. .
Source? I live in BC and there certainly has been no obvious seismic activity increase around here.
"Deadliest quake in over 450 years". Although a true statement it conveniently ignores other massive quakes with similarly high casualties (1976 Tangshan: 255,000, 1920 Haiyuan: 240,000). Same order of magnitude.
Again, how are you making this conclusion? Looking at this wiki page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_natural_disasters_by_death_toll (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_natural_disasters_by_death_toll)) the 1970’s looks a whole lot worse. A cyclone in 1970 in Bangladesh killed 500,000. 1975- another typhoon killed 210,000 in China, and the aforementioned Tangshan (1976) earthquake killed 255,000. Looks like a worse decade to me.
post by Revolvr (http://bibleforums.org/showpost.php?p=1790926&postcount=617) on a phenomena science can not explain!
PS. sorry if I butchered some original formatting and quotes, I had to write this up elsewhere and now the quote tags are giving me problems.
I wait and pray with you. I am sure you are 100% right.
This increase in the number of stations and the more timely receipt of data has allowed us and other seismological centers to locate earthquakes more rapidly and to locate many small earthquakes which were undetected in earlier years.
In 1898 nine seismograph stations were put into place that were capable of detecting, locating and measuring earthquakes of magnitude 7.0 or larger (M ³7.0) anywhere in the globe.
By 1931 there were 350 stations operating worldwide that were locating and measuring M ³6.5 earthquakes globally.
By the 1950s the system of seismographs could locate all M ³6.0 events occurring globally.
So from 1950 onward it is impossible for earthquakes 6.0 or larger to increase from technology. They were able to be detected globally in 1950.
Therefore the increase is an increase in quakes, not in technology finding them.
The increase starts in 1990 approximately . . . you got such a low increase because you compared the increase with the increase . . . Compare these numbers, pre-1989 to 1990-2007 You'll find about a 40% increase (+/- 5%) depending on if you include all the way back to 1950 . . . let's just do these decades.
These give you about a 36% increase.
It's not the single event, it's everything together, you are looking at each single event when you should be looking at ALL of the things going on.
And you probably wouldn't notice the quakes in BC, they are a hundred miles off shore on the Cascadia Fault. Look it up at USGS or Google the Cascadia Fault.
Again, how are you making this conclusion? Looking at this wiki page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_natural_disasters_by_death_toll) the 1970’s looks a whole lot worse. A cyclone in 1970 in Bangladesh killed 500,000. 1975- another typhoon killed 210,000 in China, and the aforementioned Tangshan (1976) earthquake killed 255,000. Looks like a worse decade to me.
Quoting myself here: making this decade one of the deadliest (for natural disasters) in centuries. - I did not say it was the deadliest.
And just Google the Cascadia Fault, you'll find plenty on it . . .
And above all things keep in mind the Big Picture, not a single event . . . put everything together.
I stick to my comment that since 1987-1989, our Creator has increased the number of flood, quakes and disasters in order to prepare people and earth for the Final Tribulation. All the statistics support it in many threads and posts on the forum.
I agree 150% with you . . .
Thank you for responding to some of my comments:). There is still a real lack of source data in your response.
Again, where are you getting your data? I am asking honestly - I've been googling for raw data but haven't found comprehensive data yet, especially for pre-1980 years.
I guess this is my biggest issue. The assembly of your data seems a case of throwing enough "stuff" at the wall and see what will stick. I believe we have been in the end times since Jesus said that he will return. He did say that there will be earthquakes and famines and upheavals etc., but not to worry about them as they will happen. I don't recall any mention of increasing numbers. I think when the great quakes of Revelation happen, there probably won't be much doubt as to what's going on.
My background is in geology and earth science so that's why I took an interest in these matters.

I did this research a few months ago . . . Don't remember where I got the pre 1970 info . . . it is somewhat limited . . . but I don't use bad info, I'm very picky about things, if you want to do the research yourself, you can, I know you will only find the exact thing I did, there has been an increase from 1990-Present day . . . before that it was consistent. Again I'm talking about 6.0+ quakes, not little quakes.
Thanks, I did find something called the ANSS. What they have are some interesting caveats regarding the data in the collection. I believe the USGS website you mentioned relies on this data.
The ANSS catalog contains a number of idiosyncrasies. For example, magnitudes for California earthquakes were not routinely reported until the 1940s. For global events, magnitudes are not routinely reported until the early 1960s. This means, for example, that the largest earthquake observed - the 1960 Chilean earthquake (Mw 9.5) - appears in this catalog without an associated magnitude.
(My bolding and insertion of the "see below" comment) - here's the graph.
There are some other links in there - it may be worth a read through.
Based on this, if you trust the Geological Surveys, the data you are using is definitely skewed and results in your noted increase.
I am an electrical engineer and not a geologist. I also read many articles on the web that disasters increased since 1987-89, which I regard as the start of the End of the End Times [Last Days].
According to FEMA, in the 37 years between 1953 and 1989, there was an average of 23 major disasters declarations in the US per year. In the 18 years that followed, that average more than doubled to 49.
I regard the Sabbatical year 1986/7 as the as the year the End of the End Times (Last Days) started.
1989 - The beginning of the current 28 year cycle was 1989 AD, which were 71 of the 28 year cycles after Jesus Christ was born. The World Wide Web was created by Sir Tim Berners-Lee in Switzerland. This led to an explosion of knowledge.
The graphs don't show much . . .
Those are the years those magnitudes were globally locatable. Meaning no increase in technology warps or distorts the data on these size quakes.
Your graphs if anything prove there is an increase . . .
Remember 1898 all 7.0s are locatable . . . look at your graphs again . . . you'll see there has been an increase.
By 1950 all 6.0s could be located . . . again you'll see an increase from 1950 - 1995 . . .
Though I must say the small size of your graphs and warped number scale on them doesn't do the increase justice at all.
The first quarter inch is 10 quakes, the next quarter inch is 90, the next 900, the next 9000 . . . so near the top end what looks like 1 quake in the first quarter inch is 1000 in the top quarter inch . . .
But if you look closely there is an obvious increase . . .
Sorry White Spider, but I'm not buying what you are selling.
They say the increase is due to increased monitoring efforts. Your quote about all mag 7's being recordable in 1898 and 6's by 1950 I am actually suspicious of. Due to the nature of the earth's structure I think it is possible there may have been significant blind spots for earthquake waves to make it to the recording seismographs. But as more an more seismographs are placed around the world the amount of blind spots decreases, resulting in a apparent increase in reported earthquakes. This is just an educated guess and I'd have to look into it:).
I am well aware of your fondness for 1989 :).
Your stuff is not really any areas of my expertise. I tend to be a little (well, probably, a lot) skeptical of end times predictors because of a very poor track record.
As far as the disasters, could it be that declaring a disaster is a quasi-political decision that a state can use to obtain federal assistance (at least in the US)? I'm not an American so I may be wrong on this count. Just a thought on why more disasters may be declared.
I prefer to call myself a student of the Last Days before the Second Coming of Christ, and not a predictor of any kind.
I do not know if politicians declare more disasters or not, but according to many articles there was a definte increase since 1987-1989.
I have glanced through these in the past.
Don't you think that could be important? Have you considered that your observed increase in disasters is actually due to other factors than an actual increase in events? This is important and what serious researching will tell you. It seems (to me) you are relying on any data or other information that confirms your pre-existing bias, rather than objectively looking at all the data.
And I am not immune, this is a very real and common problem with all of us. In fact I read of a study that if we are presented with information countering or refuting a deeply held belief, we are more likely to actually stick to our original belief even stronger than before. Just peruse any political or religious site (or this board) to see this in action;).
Well look into it . . . but 1940-1965 is not the increase I'm talking about, I start my recording in 1950 when all 6.0 quakes were recordable . . . 1950s - 1980s all had similar amounts of quakes, 1990 - 2000 has shown a 40% increase (+/- 5%).
I'm not selling, I'm simply putting out the facts, if facts are not your thing, well sorry.
It seems (to me) you are relying on any data or other information that confirms your pre-existing bias, rather than objectively looking at all the data.
I am a scientist and not a politician. I 1st do the research on data or published articles, THEN I make conclusions. It is no accident that many things (disasters, quakes, floods, changes in human behaviour, etc) changed since 1987-89, God planned it that way.
If you are still sceptical, I have no more solution for you than to recommend that you do your own research and studies.
I am personally very unbiased . . . the reason I believe what I believe is because the evidence supports it.
I have actually gone from a pre-existing pre-trib view from what my church taught to post-trib for a while after some time on here . . . Now I simply consider myself a future-tribulationist as I see no complete evidence for a Rapture in a specific period of time.
I am also looking into preterism right now . . .
I know you don't feel like what I've said as far as the quakes go is true, but maybe you are the one holding on tighter to your pre-conditioned belief because what I've said and proven contradicts what you believe.
I am a scientist and not a politician.
I 1st do the research on data or published articles, THEN I make conclusions. It is no accident that many things (disasters, quakes, floods, changes in human behaviour, etc) changed since 1987-89, God planned it that way.
Exactly what I've done just in this thread re: White Spider's earthquake data. I have currently come to a different conclusion. As I mentioned earlier, your area of interest is not my forte and my comments were not meant to be overly discouraging. I don't intend to do alot of research in this area as it is not too personally important for my Christian walk. I do think it is important that conclusions be challenged so that truth may be revealed - this was my main intent in White Spider's OP.
Could very well be. However, typically the burden of proof is the one making the extraordinary claim. In this case I have not discovered any conclusions from established seismologists that indicate that the amount of significant quakes have actually increased - except that recording and reporting has improved. Scientists studying this would have no vested interest in hiding what should be a rather exciting scientific observation of a 40% increase in >6mag seismic activity in the last 20 years. Maybe if we can find something in a respected journal (unfortunately these are rarely available on-line for free and the costs are pretty high).
Well here's a link for you teddyv, it doesn't have a whole lot of proof but it's from a non-biased group and they say quakes have been on the rise.
Might be worth a quick glance.
Had a look. As you say not a lot of proof nor anything to back up the assertion that earthquakes are on the rise. I agree there is nothing to suggest a positive or negative bias.
The description of plate tectonic action is a bit poor. My feeling (confirming that bias again:)) based on this organizations apparent reason for being is they are more concerned about the increased in loss of life and property due to earthquakes. This is not unexpected due to population growth and the clustering of large populations and major cities along, in particular, the Pacific Rim.
Whilst Atlantic hurricane frequency and intensity has certainly increased over the past 30 years, scientific opinion (http://www.gfdl.noaa.gov/~tk/glob_warm_hurr.html) is currently divided on any long-term global trend. Some claim the global percentage of category 4,5 hurricanes is simply varying on a decade basis and shows no real upward trend [Kossin et al, 2007]. Others disagree. The graph opposite (courtesy Webster et al, Science, 309, 2005) shows that category 4,5 hurricanes as a percentage of total hurricanes have increased from 17% around 1970 to 35% around 2002.
A bottom line is that sea surface temperatures are a major factor, and these are rising. Consider a few figures. Hurricane models project a 3-5% increase in wind speed per degree C rise in sea surface temperature, and global warming projections are for 2-5 degree C rise by 2100 relative to 1990 levels. So a 2 degree C rise could show a 6-10% increase in wind speed. Since the power dissipated by a hurricane (cyclone) is proportional to the cube of the wind speed, we might expect a hurricane power increase of 20-30%. A 5 degree C increase by 2100 could give a 50-95% increase in hurricane power (super-hurricanes).
Bible prophecy says that God will use the weather to influence man's affairs at the end of this age.
Prophectic signs (http://www.seekingtruth.co.uk/end_times.htm) and the state of the world suggest the end of this age is immanent.
Most scientists agree that the world's climate is changing rapidly. Dramatic events are expected this century.
If we are indeed close to the end of this age, then the correlation between biblical and scientific statements on climate seems significant. Both predict increasing temperature, more severe storms and more severe drought. God does indeed appear to be changing our weather in order to speak to, and judge, the nations. Clearly, it is a very effective tool to arrest the world's attention!
Well we all know how intricately woven the world economy is and if the U.S. fails and drops into full scale depression it's likely, if not guaranteed, the world will as well.
Why is this significant? - Well, because it's only a matter of time before the U.S. economy fails and depression is among us.
If this bail out goes through . . . Can anyone say INFLATION, pulling $700 billion dollars basically out of thin air would basically ruin the dollar.
On the other hand, if we don't save the failing companies we hit depression anyways sooner or later.
The real question here is, which way do you want to sink the U.S.?
To expand on my last post . . .
The market closed down 372 points today and oil sky rocketed finishing up $16.37 (the largest one-day rise ever) . . . This after last weeks rocky start and seemingly happy ending.
Overall this year U.S. stocks are down 17% . . .
There are those deeply confused that say the U.S. goes through a cycle like this every once in a while as they rattle of years of economic woe in the past we made it through, but . . .
When was the last time the government nationalized a company? I mean ever?
When was the last time major banks went bankrupt due to a "normal cycle?"
Some of these banks navigated through the Depression, but died during this, "normal cycle." Really, that makes no sense.
What happened during the last "normal cycle" . . . is large amounts of money used for bail outs typical?
Can someone please tell me what is normal about this? Please, I haven't a clue . . . IMHO the U.S. is about to die and I would like someone to convince me otherwise . . . PLEASE!
I would say watch for us to fail in Iraq and the Palestinians to fall soon.
This time comes of war with Iraq, Israel and Egypt, and then a time of peace - followed by the ac from Iraq.
I believe that we are now at the third seal of Revelation. The 4th seal will be the rising to rule time of the antichrist in Iraq.
I see - hope that the USA is found among the part in Daniel 11 - referred to as "the ships of Chittim". If so, then we will eventually beat Iraq back for a time, when the man of sin is here.
My reseach shows that the End of The End Times (Last Days) started in 1987-89 and will end in 2016.
Okay, I'll start with why I believe there will be a time - a short time of peace before the ac rules Iraq.
Daniel 11 shows a timeline of rulers in the north.
So we just follow the list.
"And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honour of the kingdom, but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries."
He comes to power at a time of peace, and it also told us about the ruler just before him that will go down.
"Then shall stand up in his estate a raiser of taxes...but within a few days he shall be destroyed, neither in anger, nor in battle."
//This guy is taking over after a big war where Iraq has retreated and its leader disappeared on the way back to his land.
"Then he shall turn his face toward the fort of his own land: but he shall stumble and fall, and not be found."
///This is winding up a series of verses from 15, where a great war has begun and the leader has been doing according to his own will. But during the war, someone turns on the Iraqi leader (seems to be someone he trusted to help him) and the Iraqi leader will flee back home - but disappear, and nobody finds him.
So seems that a search will be made.
This is where I believe v22 gets its peace partner from.
"And with the arms of a flood shall they be overflown from before him, and shall be broken; yea; also the prince of the covenant."
"After this shall he turn his face unto the isles, and shall take many: but a prince for his own behalf shall cause the reproach offered by him to cease.."
(So seems here is the guy that will do what it takes to end the war with Iraq).
V22 somewhere picked up a guy that is the prince of the covenant, but he gets overflown, and then V23 happens.
"And after the league [made] with him.."
"And he shall confirm the covenant with many..."
So V15 - a big war begins with Iraq seeming to be having victory....but by V19, someone turns on the Iraqi ruler, he flees and then soon can't be found. Iraqi ruler out of the prophecy picture and we find that a covenant maker is going to before long be overflown. Then the ac- makes his own league.
We saw that Daniel 11:15 begins a huge Iraqi war. The bible seems to show us why there will be so much anger.
"And in those times there shall many stand up against the king of the south..."
I want to pause here for a moment as - many try to shove Antiochus the Great into this verse, or make other nations come against Egypt.
I see this verse as telling us that the many that stood up against the king of the south's ruler are those of his own land.
There is no battle placed here, no other nations or rulers are mentioned in this part.
Thus, I see this as was when Anwar Sadat was assassinated by his own people.
Now Sadat's VP (Mubarak would come to power as ruler) and this prophecy seems to show that he would live a long time as ruler of the south.
So let's continue the V14 message.
"...also the robbers of thy people shall exalt themselves..."
Israel would have within her land another people also claiming independence.
That same date is still used today.
"...the robbers of thy people shall exalt themselves...but they shall fall."
Israel didn't recognize the Palestinian notion of independence, and eventually that idea will fail.
What happens to the Palestinians matters to others in the Arab world, so on comes the war.
So the king of the north shall come.."
Let me see if I got this straight, sorry, it's late and I'm tired . . . correct me if I'm wrong.
2)someone turns on the Iraqi leader . . . and the Iraqi leader will flee back home - but disappear, and nobody finds him.
So in simpler terms; this is the current Iraq war and Iraq will seem to be winning. Then there leader will disappear, someone will then try to make peace, but it won't work. Then the AC takes over Iraq and makes a league?
Yes. Iraq will war with Israel and Egypt, and we are told that "neither [shall there be any] strength to withstand".
"...shall do according to his own will, and none shall stand before him:..."
That's what I get out of Daniel 11.
I'm not sure who it will be. I have thought that it will be the prince mentioned in v18.
Sounds pretty much-ish the way I see it showing us. The peace comes, but then we have a guy that will raise taxes in Iraq or attempt to (probably due to his war debt and damages) and that guy will soon be out of power. The ac then steps into the picture at time of a peaceful takeover of power.
They won't give him the honour of the kingdom, yet he then is said to come in peaceably and gets the kingdom by flatteries.
We were looking a bit at the date when the Palestinians declared indpendence, and ever since have been waiting for their own land to come about.
Daniel 11:14 shows that two places have people within their own land that cause havoc.
Daniel 11:14 tells us that when this robbers bunch type exalts themselves it will also be the start of a vision that was shown to Daniel.
"And in those times there shall many stand up against the king of the south: also the robbers of thy people shall exalt themselves to establish the vision..."
What vision? Daniel is not watching things right then, he is being spoken to by an angel.
The being that at the end of chapter 10 had assured Daniel that he would be back and speak to him more.
"But I will shew thee..."
Sometime in the future, Daniel was to be shown more stuff that connected up with Daniel 10's message.
"But I will shew thee that which is noted in the scripture of truth..."
"And now will I shew thee the truth..."
///So somewhere within this chapter will be information that links up with the vision times in Daniel 10.
"In the third year of Cyrus...a thing was revealed to Daniel, but the time appointed was long...had understanding of the vision."
"In those days I Daniel was mourning three full weeks."
After the three full weeks, Daniel is okay for only a time that lasts till the 24th day - when then he sees a vision of a certain man (the ac).
So in Daniel 11:14 begins the first vision that was shown to Daniel in chapter 10 (then he mourned for three full weeks).
So if we use the date of when the Palestinians declared indendence and then add 21 years to that- we should find about the time when the big Iraq will be turning around or end.
Daniel was told to "consider the vision" in Daniel 9.
I see that as the same vision message for chapter 10. Daniel was to apply that he saw a vision and then mourned for three full weeks - and now he is to realize how long weeks refer to for Daniel chapter 9, and slide his visions of chapter 10 into Daniel chapter 9.
Jesus told us about the time of the beginning of sorrows - I see that as being about the vision that caused Daniel to be sad at the start of chapter 10.
lasts - three full weeks?
That is how long Daniel mourned.
What was to come before the beginning of sorrows?
"For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these [are] the beginning of sorrows."
But wars have been over the history of the world. Yes, but in Daniel we have been told of coming empires, and here we are told of what I believe are to be considered world war times.
"And ye shall hear of wars..."
Matthew 24 even has to not be troubled.
/// So if we are to not be bothered - troubled over those parts - then the beginning of sorrows had yet to start.
Jesus even links this up with prophecy by Daniel as to when the great tribulation will start - as to when ye see the abomination of desolation - flee Judea.
The abomination of desolation comes after the time of Daniel 11:15-19 at verse 31.
In Daniel 10, he was in sadness for the first vision, and then again for the second one.
"...by the vision my sorrows are turned upon me, and I have retained no strength."
Just as Israel too - in her times of sorrow - will have no strength to withstand.
Why are we at the third seal time?
This is very involved, but basically it comes from the song of Moses in Deuteronomy 32. Moses told the people in song about the nation that would provoke them to anger.
Zechariah 5-6 is also showing us a prophecy about the endtime nation to come against Israel.
Zechariah 5 gives the story of how Nebuchadnezzar II crossed wickedly the temple porch. The porch being the part about 20 by 10 cubits.
Since Nebuchadnezzar II did that sin, he brought this other 20 by 10 deal to his land - a curse. A curse that requires that one day Babylon's land falls in a way where even the timber and the stones of it will be consumed.
To do this - we then move to Zec. 6 and watch Shinar rebuild her kingdom.
When is Shinar to rise again?
Not till the latter days of the brass mountains - the brass kingdom - Greece.
Just as Daniel 8 reveals that the little horn will come from the eastern section of the former Greek Empire.
brass - the third empire -for the statue in Daniel 2.
This is a very interesting explanation of Daniel, I would have to study it properly.
Nov 1988 plus 21 years equal Nov 2009, which you regard could be the start of the Final Tribulation?
2009 – 30 Sep 2008 is also the beginning of the next 7-year Sabbatical cycle. The second of three total solar eclipses will be on Av 1: 22 July 2009.
For me 2012 could be a special date when the Ten Regions should be completed and the One World Government should be in place.
The New World Order is planned to be completed by Dec 2012. Two total lunar eclipses or blood moons will occur during 2011. On 6 June 2012 Venus will transit across the disk of the Sun, a rare event according to NASA. A total solar eclipse will happen on 13 Nov 2012.
The sun experiences solar polarity changes about every 9-12 years. December 2012 will be the peak of the next solar polarity change. This causes sunspots and solar flares. Expected to be 30% more active and powerful than the previous one. And with the rare planetary alignment during this period it may be worse than expected. (White Spider). I understand that many satellites could be destroyed.
With your new info I, it is possible that 2012 could then be the start of the Great Tribulation (final 3,5 years).
2014/15 - The Sabbatical year Sep. 2014 – Sep. 2015 will have 2 solar eclipses and 4 total lunar eclipses or blood moons. It will not happen again in the 21st century. This will happen on Biblical or Jewish holidays.
I do not precisely know what will happen, only our Father in Heaven knows.
We must carefully watch and analyze all Biblical Last Days signs !!!
If somebody has not accepted Jesus Christ as Saviour, NOW is the time !!!
Good to be chatting with you about this.
I didn't just one day try to begin to line up world events with Daniel 11. I was about 15 years old, reading it and thought that, hey I understand this. I then came later to the verse as to those that understand shall instruct many. I thought, well it made sense to me.
Daniel 11:13 is a divided verse. We have a part that was to happen before the "certain years" and a part that was to happen after the "certain years".
This verse contains too many army types, so it has to be referring to two different rulers of the north.
This time will end with a huge Iraqi war against Israel and Egypt.
So 1988 - November 15 was the date the Palestinians declared independence, but it was a bit later they had a leader.
So - when do we go from?
The date they had a place declared - or when they actually had someone to lead it, or what?
That is why I tell people the Iraq war should be in either 2009 or 2010.
I watch for the Palestinians to fall - and the idea of democracy in Iraq to falter.
Verse 15 speaks of this ruler of the north will take the most fenced cities. That is why for many years before Israel even started on her huge wall (fence), I told people to watch for that to happen in Israel.
This Iraqi ruler will "stand in the glorious land".
Do I place the covenant of the man of sin being around 2011, 2012 or so? I can see that.
You mentioned a part as to ten regions coming together. That doesn't seem to be what will happen, as Daniel saw 13 horns first in Daniel 7, and then three will be plucked up by the speaking great words little horn.
Daniel 7 shows us two stories as to the little horn.
The great words type of guy was shown to Daniel twice.
"...and a mouth speaking great things."
"I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake..."
"...came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots..."
"three of the first horns"
Some try to look at this and then say -"three of ten".
So we have to go looking, digging deeper into the message here and see just how many horns Daniel saw with the little horn and his mouth, first.
Daniel saw 13 horns and the little horn plucked up three of those.
This fits with Rev. 17 too, as there the ten willingly give their kingom to the beast.
Nobody was forced to do it.
God put it in their hearts to give their kingdom to the beast, and He keeps doing so - clear till the time comes to burn the beast's city of mystery, Babylon (Tyre in Lebanon).
I agree that we must "carefully watch and analyze all the last days Biblical signs!
It appears to me that the Lord has chosen you to be part of the opening of the sealed book of Daniel for us in the Last Days.
As you already know, we are definitely living in the End of the End Times or the Last Day before the Second Coming of Christ.
I recommend that you open a thread "Daniel and the End Time" and integrate it with current world events.
As you already know, only the Holy Spirit can open the secrets and truth of the Holy Bible for us.
My prayer is that the Holy Spirit will continue to give you a spirit of truth.
I would say watch for us to fail in Iraq and the Palestinians to fall soon. I believe that we entered the time of the beginning of sorrows back around Nov. 15, 1988. It seems (by the vision of Daniel ch 10) to last 21 years. - three full weeks This time comes of war with Iraq, Israel and Egypt, and then a time of peace - followed by the ac from Iraq. I believe that we are now at the third seal of Revelation. The 4th seal will be the rising to rule time of the antichrist in Iraq.
Hi, Vinsight4u8! I have been expecting that the one who will be the antiChrist will take at least part of Iraq (and perhaps all of it) and use it as one of his capitols. It could be that the U.S. will be either forced out of Iraq or will pull out voluntarily in the future, and the one who eventually takes over could be called "The Assyrian", whether or not he is actually Assyrian by birth. I've often wondered whether Iran might fill that vacuum for a time, either through warring with the U.S. and defeating us in Iraq or by simply making treaties with the Iraqi government when we leave. I believe Iran (Persia) will be very active in the near future if my interpretation of prophecies are correct, but I don't believe that the antiChrist will be an Iranian. It is quite possible a European leader will have to go back into Iraq and occupy it again, though, and I suspect he will be the one who we will find is the antiChrist.
By the way, your mention of 1988 is very close to Roelof's view that 1987 is the beginning of the end of the end times!
Hi, Vinsight4u8! I see that Roelof has posted what 21 years adds up to, and I have to say that I am completely blown away with this date! My own research that I've been conducting for a couple years now is pointing to that very same timing. I am in awe of God!
Their was nearly a 40% increase in world-wide average 6.0+ earthquakes since 1989. This jump was not an accident, God planned it to prepare people and Mother Earth for the Final Tribulation.
1986/87 – a Sabbatical Year. This Sabbatical year had 3 solar eclipses and 2 lunar eclipses.
Itwas marked with a supernova first seen on 23 Feb 1987. A supernova is an exploding star that can become billions of times as bright as the sun before gradually fading from view. It was the first supernova to be visible to the naked eye in almost 400 years.
1989 was the year the WWW was created which led to an explosionof knowledge as Daniel prophesied !!
1989 was also the start of the current 28 year cycle.
Jesus is coming soon !!!
You said "it could be that the U.S. gets forced out of Iraq, or pull out of it voluntarily"
I see us failing there for two bible reasons.
This shows that a nation is to boot out her enemies - so the stranger no longer eats its food and such, also shows the nation will prosper again.
Just as when God will restore Israel after the great tribulation is over, so first must Iraq get strong again.
Right now food is still being rationed in Iraq. Some food items (maybe soap) are being given out monthly.
So Iraq's food we could say is being "measured".
But this time will stop- for we also have a "hurt not the oil and the wine" part written in the third seal section.
What do you think if we apply this type of idea, and get that from Isaiah 66:8?
Because the Lord speaks as to the rise and fall of nations. In the third seal - the voice is heard from the midst of the four beasts and - that is where the Lamb is found.
"Thus saith the LORD, As the new wine is found in the cluster, and [one] saith, Destroy it not; for a bessing [is] in it: so will I do for my servants sakes, that I may not destroy them all."
Things then turn around - and Israel is fed - but those that attacked her start to go hungry.
"Therefore thus saith the LORD GOD, Behold, my servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry...ye shall be ashamed."
But before this time - as will happen to Israel, right now God is measuring - or allowing to be measured on Iraq their punishment first.
"..therefore will I measure their former work into their bosom."
What is their former work?
The deeds of the second seal - when the Iraq rulers slew each other.
I see ahead of us the time when Iraq will take Israel and the war of Daniel 11:15-19 - then before long - the ac as the fourth seal rider.
This 4th seal part uses the names that Habakkuk 2 gives us as to a coming proud man that will gather the nations.
I see this person as will come from Iraq. The land of Shinar was shown to rise again in Zechariah 5 and the prophecy of Jeremiah 25:11 is not completed, so that we can move on to V12 where the Babylonian king and his land get punished.
Cyrus took the land of Babylon in 539 B.C. - but Nebuchadnezzar had only taken the kingdom from his dad in 605.
So it is impossible for Babylon to have had a whole seventy years of time over the nations.
This is what Isaiah 23:15 is also about - as to Tyre waits for the 70 years of a king to come to pass. When it does - Tyre will be singing the song of a harlot.
Their was nearly a 40% increase in average world-wide 6.0+ earthquakes since 1989.
1986/87 – aSabbatical Year.I regard this as the year the End of the End Times (Last Days) started.
Forgive me if everyone has moved on, but I saw my name being addressed.
There was an increase from the period of 1980-1989. What about 1970 to 1989, 1950 to 1989, 19-- to 1989? Then we have a problem because the data that is available is not directly comparable due to increased monitoring and sensitivity. I actually looked at the raw worldwide data that was available and much of the older data is spotty in magnitude listing, if there even was a magnitude given. I think you are taking the dataset way too seriously - it's not that it is wrong or bad, but drawing the conclusions out of it without appreciating the actual way it is compiled can lead to wrong conclusions. There is a list of caveats given by the data providers (you'll have to see one of my previous posts).
As far as the Matthew 24:7 quote it speaks nothing of increased earthquake activity, merely there will be earthquake activity. | 2019-04-18T18:23:02 | https://bibleforums.org/archive/index.php/t-139962.html?s=40d6809fcf1d3ee09ad6073c99c004b9 |
This year Husband and I are celebrating our second Christmas together. Right now, life is full of flux. We ebb and flow, we try to keep up, we try to slow down. Husband has had four different jobs since we married just over a year ago and I have gone from part-time work/full-time student to full-time work/part-time student. We have moved, added a puppy to our home, and so much more.
That said, Christmas is hardly “established” in our little family. And I am determined not to force us into establishing all of our Christmas traditions all at once just because of my inexplicable fervor for holiday traditions.
When we were dating, we made a gingerbread house together. We did so again last year, on the day we brought our puppy home (hence the name “Ginger”), and we made another one this year. It’s a lovely tradition–fun and not too difficult, great to do with other couples or families or whatever.
Last year we traveled all the way to the mountains to cut down a real Christmas tree (we went to the Blue Ridge mountains about 3.5 hours away from our coastal city), and we did it again this year. The smell of fresh pine in the house is divine!
We have gone to visit “the lights” every year. When we were dating it was the lights on the boardwalk at the beach. Every year they do a big lights display and close the boardwalk in the evenings so cars can drive down it. Last year we went to Norfolk Botanical Gardens where we were delightfully impressed by the array of lights as we drove through the park. We’re planning to go again this year, hopefully with Husband’s brother and Husband’s brother’s fiancee. Someday we’ll get up to Busch Gardens for their Christmas celebration, we’ve heard it’s truly inspired. It also costs about $25 a person and we are, after all, poor newlyweds.
And we gave each other (sort of) a chick for Christmas. It’s a great way to give without adding clutter and unnecessary consumerism to your life. Instead of stuff, you can give a gift that can truly change a life, and help children escape the cycle of poverty and hunger. Learn more at World Vision.
And I asked Husband to make crepes on Christmas Eve (he hasn’t made them since we were dating, and I do love crepes).
We have also brought over a few traditions from our childhoods, and modified them to fit us. I LOVE having grapefruit on Christmas morning, so Husband preps one for me =). And last year we started having fondue for Christmas dinner; my family used to have it on Christmas eve. We attend the Christmas eve service at church. We visited a few train stores this year and bought a little building; my family used to spend an entire day building new model pieces for our train set (and we received a train and track from my parents as a Christmas gift last year which Ginger somehow feels the need to attack).
Now that we have these traditions established and a few modified, I’m looking for additional unique ideas that will work for our crazy, delightful little life.
We’ve talked about celebrating the 12 days of Christmas (like they do in parts of Europe), but I haven’t been able to find a lot out about those traditions, it seems they are as varied as the groups of people who celebrate Christmas.
Last year, we received several ornaments as gifts (apparently it’s popular to give “First Christmas” ornaments to newlyweds). If we don’t receive one this year, we might have to go in search of one. Having at least one ornament from every year can be fun. I have them from my entire childhood.
We’re working toward decorating our tree together. Last year Husband was so busy with work that I did the decorating alone. But this year we managed to do it together by working on it in stages: putting up the tree one night, hanging lights another night, adding ornaments on a third night, etc. Maybe someday we’ll be able to do it all at once!
Maybe we’ll get to take Ginger on a special walk Christmas day…last year it snowed Christmas evening and we were able to take a walk on the beach in the snow! Unfortunately, white Christmases here are rare. | 2019-04-26T15:04:20 | http://bluelikethat.drakeink.com/2011/12/17/creating-traditions/ |
Lets see those heroes. A nice round overall.. some have forgotten about the most harmless enemy... but.. we're good to move forward.
Thank you all for following the new rules - makes my life way easyer.
If you are unhappy with the thumbs.. you can post that too.
...After running riot, Possessed Greg was eventually captured and stored in a subterranean facility, bolted into a box inside a chest inside a sarcophogus. However, as the next Halloween approaches his powers grow stronger. Strong enough to break free of his shackles!
Now... As the player you must guide him to his birthplace, devouring souls along the way to increase your abilities.
As a character he's limited to human movement (walk, run, jump), simply because of the scarecrow vessel housing the demon. However, as a demon his connection with the 'other side' provides extra functions. Also, the demon is not restricted to any one form, growing stronger with the addition of more souls. He's essentially invulnerable, but you need to keep the scarecrow body habitable while heading towards the ultimate goal.
In an alternate japan 1740, a blind farmer namned Tuchiro lived a happy and quiet life on the Okinawa countryside. His grown up son Jaisho was a soldier in the shogun Domoichis service. Domoichi ruled the land with an ironhand and seemed to have no mercy. One day Jashio was ordered to kill a farmer for not paying his tax. Jaisho disobeyed, which was not taken lightly by his superiors. He was executed for treason and his body was sent home.
That night, when Tuchiro held his dead sons body, he made an oath. He would not rest until he had put an end to Domoichi and his dynasty. He would avenge his son.
Now. Tuchiro is not the ideal warrior. First off he´s a 75 year old farmer.. and he´s blind. But his devotion to his son and the oath that binds him, brings him great power. When the game begins you have only a sword and your sons armor. But as you fight your way from the countryside to the capital, you can obtain new weapons, martial art moves, armor and equipment.
You start the game whit broken wings (since some mean human has tore them appart for fun) and no skills, but later in the game you will regain the ability to fly for a short period of time and learn various spells. The thing he got in is hand is a bread crumble.
JAAP is a dragon-like character. He has a magical and technical equipment to fight with enemies. He has a long telescopic stick to jump over the precipices and a first aid kit to heal the wounds.
O k - Molly works as a mechanic fixing robots, and in her spare time invents cool gadgets. In this world everyday household items are robots - things like toasters, washing machines, microwaves etc.
However - suddenly alot of robots have got thier wires crossed - literally - and are causing mischief. Its up to Molly to fix them and find out the cause.
I focused on the main aspect of any platform game - jumping.
Molly has a pair of spring loaded boots that allower her to leap over enemies and obstacles, the longer you hold the trigger button the more powerful the jump - the tilt of the analog stick determines how far or high, so timing and accuracy are key: especially when avoiding some of the BIG robots.
She can also scale great heights by kicking off one wall to another, as well as backflipping out of harms way.
Her main weapon is a big wrench - useful for twatting unruly robots! It can also be used as a hook so that she can latch onto wires and cables and use them as a zip line.
I also had an idea for a magnet gun that would temproarily stun enemies by scrambeling thier circuits and allower her to 'fix' them - letting her use the robot as a sidekick + whatever abilities it has.
The Roaster Toaster is a toaster gone bad - its quite small and weak but it will ping slices of flaming death at you untill its taken out (by a big wrench to the noggin ). The thickness of the smoke indicates when its going to fire - which it does by tilting its head down in the direction of the player.
Cognition was a very close second.
Voted for Cognitionsb. Ive always liked it when the protagonist is something not so obviously the good guy.
so many good omes this time, it was very close between Cognition.sb, tuchten and trev for me. had to go with trev though becaue it brought back memories of being forced to play "non-violent" viedogames as a kid. I also liked the inclusion of an enemy. well done to all who participated.
I was torn up between Tuchten and Jakkas. I had to Voted for Jakkas. Tuchten's character was appealing but I'm not sure how a blind 75 year old man can learn that many new tricks if he hadn't already honed his skills while he was young. Even if he's devoted and such.
There's nothing better than dinner and CSI.
Tuchten and CongnitionSB were great entries, but I had to go with Jakkas in the end. JAAP just looks fun to play, and I imagine him being in a really cool world with some great enemies to fight. Nice presentation too.
Voted for cognitionsb. The render here is really interesting, though I think it could be a little clearer. The concept, however, is strong. Very unusual character.
as many others before i voted for cognition.
i just love that creepy style you put in, beside the fact that it was kinda hard for me to figure out what the first enemy is supposed to be.
jakkas would definetly deserve the trophy imho, but in this case im blended by my own taste.
Thanks for the votes and comments, guys.
I went with Tuchten - that's a character I'd like to play. I'm a big fan of melee-based heroes and jumpin around doing crazy martial arts moves (especially when the doctor would advise not to).
Nice work as par usual.
The orange thing is the demon in Greg, and it's shown eating the dog's soul (as it leaps to attack him).
Shame you didn't finish yours, it looks like an interesting idea.
Voted Jakkas. I like the character and the equipment.
Walkin' with the air of four seasons and an oxygen tank.
Tuchiro- I really like the story behind. And I like your rendering a lot, but it doesn't really make me think platform. More like a great sneaky stealth game or action game, in my opinion.
Hey, thx for votes and comments.
I already voted for cognition.sb - beautiful presentation and the character too.
voted for Cognition.sb. very cool concept; creepy. Love it.
Jakkas comes a very close second. Very close.
The overall style and look of the pic won me over, guess nostalgia had a bit to do with it aswell.
Jakkas, Yours really looks like a gremling, was it intentional?
Thx to everyone for comments and votes.
Cognition.sb - I am close behind you ...but i hope you will win. Your entry is more ...charismatic.
hah, thanks Jakkas It's hard to compete against talented artists like yourself. Look at all those COW stars! But even if it doesn't win this is my best result yet (woohoo!).

(Reuters) - A cyber warfare expert claims he has linked the Stuxnet computer virus that attacked Iran’s nuclear program in 2010 to Conficker, a mysterious “worm” that surfaced in late 2008 and infected millions of PCs.
Conficker was used to open back doors into computers in Iran, then infect them with Stuxnet, according to research from John Bumgarner, a retired U.S. Army special-operations veteran and former intelligence officer.
While it is widely believed that the United States and Israel were behind Stuxnet, Bumgarner wouldn’t comment on whether he believes the Americans and Israelis also unleashed Conficker, one of the most virulent pieces of so-called malware ever detected. He wouldn’t name the attackers he believes were behind the two programs, saying the matter was too sensitive to discuss.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office, which oversees Israel’s intelligence agencies, also declined comment.
If Bumgarner’s findings, which couldn’t immediately be independently confirmed, are correct then it shows that the United States and Israel may have a far more sophisticated cyber-warfare program than previously thought. It could also be a warning to countries other than Iran that they might be vulnerable to attacks.
His account leaves unresolved several mysteries. These include the severity of the damage that the program inflicted on Iran’s uranium enrichment facility, whether other facilities in Iran were targeted and the possibility that there were other as yet unidentified pieces of malware used in the same program.
Bumgarner - who wrote a highly praised analysis of Russia’s 2008 cyber assault on Republic of Georgia - says he identified Conficker’s link to Stuxnet only after spending more than a year researching the attack on Iran and dissecting hundreds of samples of malicious code.
He is well regarded by some in the security community. “He is a smart man,” said Tom Kellermann, an advisor to the Obama Administration on cyber security policy and the chief technology officer of a company called AirPatrol.
The worm’s latent state had been a mystery for some time. It appears never to have been activated in the computers it infected, and security experts have speculated that the program was abandoned by those who created it because they feared getting caught after Conficker was subjected to intense media scrutiny.
If confirmed, Bumgarner’s work could deepen understanding of how Stuxnet’s commanders ran the cyber operation that last year sabotaged an underground facility at Natanz, where Iranian scientists are enriching uranium using thousands of gas centrifuges.
The view that Stuxnet was built by the United States and Israel was laid out in a January 2011 New York Times report that said it came from a joint program begun around 2004 to undermine Iran’s efforts to build a bomb. That article said the program was originally authorized by U.S. President George W. Bush, and then accelerated by his successor, Barack Obama.
The first reports that the United States and Israel were behind Stuxnet were greeted skeptically. There are still a handful of prominent cyber security experts, including Jeffrey Carr, the author of the book “Inside Cyber Warfare: Mapping the Cyber Underworld,” who dispute the U.S.-Israel idea. He says that circumstantial evidence paints a convincing case that China was behind Stuxnet.
According to Bumgarner’s account, Stuxnet’s operators started doing reconnaissance in 2007, using Duqu, which spied on makers of components used in Iran’s nuclear and critical infrastructure facilities.
In November 2008, Conficker was let loose and it quickly spread, attacking millions of PCs around the world. Its initial task was to infect a machine and “phone home” with its location. If it was at a strategic facility in Iran, the attackers tagged that PC as a target. The release left millions of untagged machines infected with Conficker around the world, but no damage was done to them.
In March 2009, Bumgarner says, the attackers released a new, more powerful version of Conficker that started the next phase of the attack on April 1 by downloading Stuxnet onto the targeted PCs. After it completed that task, Conficker’s mission on those machines was complete.
He did more digging, comparing date and time stamps on different versions of Conficker and Stuxnet, and found a correlation — key dates related to their development and deployment overlapped. That helped him identify April Fool’s Day, April 1, 2009, as the launch date for the attack.
Bumgarner believes the attackers picked that date to send a message to Iran’s leaders. It marked the 30th anniversary of the declaration of an Islamic republic by Ayatollah Khomeini after a national referendum.
Once Conficker had pulled Stuxnet into computers in Iran there was still one big hurdle, he said. Those infected computers weren’t yet in the target - the underground uranium enrichment facility at Natanz.
Stuxnet was programmed to automatically jump from an infected PC to a USB drive as soon as it was put into a computer. That was the easy part. Getting somebody to be a human “mule” by bringing that USB drive to Natanz and plugging it into the right machine was a logistical nightmare.
That was probably delivered by somebody who regularly visited the facility and had reason to share information electronically - an academic affiliated with an engineering program at one of Iran’s universities or a worker at a company that provided technology to the facility, according to Bumgarner. He or she was almost certainly unaware of what was happening, he said.
“It blew their operation wide open,” says Bumgarner. | 2019-04-21T04:41:48 | https://ca.reuters.com/article/topNews/idCATRE7B10AP20111202 |

Property Tax Sales | Tax Liens – Hein Schneider & Bond P.C. Property Tax Sales | Tax Liens – Hein Schneider & Bond P.C.
A lien is deemed to exist on property, in favor of the State for the amount of delinquent taxes, along with any associated penalties, interests and costs, once the amount of tax due on the property is assessed and levied. If the property taxes remain unpaid, the county tax collector may enforce the lien by selling the property to recover the unpaid taxes after three years delinquency in Missouri, two years in Illinois. The owner has an opportunity to repay the delinquent taxes during the redemption period, before the property is lost in foreclosure of taxes, i.e. at final tax sale.
The attorneys of Hein Schneider & Bond P.C. most frequently encounter tax sale questions by representing property owners who later discover their property has been sold without their knowledge for non-payment of taxes. In such cases it pays to retain a law firm intimately familiar with the process and with a record of successfully attacking and setting aside tax sales and collector’s deeds for the benefit of insured owners and lenders.
Our firm devotes more attorneys to real estate and title insurance litigation than any other firm in Missouri and Southern Illinois. | 2019-04-23T06:05:22 | https://hsbattorneys.com/practice-areas/real-estate-title-insurance/tax-sales/ |

In the three talks of this week, I would like to discuss the results of the spiritual-scientific research concerning the human being. In this talk I would like to establish a basis to consider the supersensible human being next time and in the third talk two most significant questions, those of the freedom of will and the immortality of the soul.
Concerning our discussion today I am in a somewhat difficult situation, first because the following will be considered in particular compared with the contents of this talk what I have often brought to your attention in the course of these discussions: the fact that the results of spiritual-scientific research are, indeed, in full harmony with everything that natural sciences have performed as great achievements up to now but that which shall be said from the viewpoint of spiritual science just in harmony with the scientific results is in full contrast to that which the naturalists or those who interpret scientific results today say about these scientific results concerning the human being and his nature. On one side complete harmony with the facts, on the other side almost an unequivocal contradiction compared with those who are used to speak about these facts today — this is one objective difficulty. The other difficulty is that I have this talk only, and that that which we will discuss today would have to be the object of at least thirty talks if it should be treated in detail. Thus, I can represent the results only sketchily and can easily be misunderstood in many respects. However, today I do not intend to inform details, rather I would like to evoke a sensation of the direction which spiritual-scientific thinking has to take if it wants to discuss the question of the nature of the human being with the scientific views of the present.
The scientific views have particularly suggested the question of the relation of the human being to the animal realm and of everything that arises from this relationship to the understanding of the human being. What has worked on this question very suggestively is the form that the wholly scientific theory of evolution assumed in the last time. However, one forms wrong mental pictures of the scope and the real character of this theory of evolution, because one grasps the question always too straight, I would like to say, too trivially. So one has the idea today, as if the relationship of the human being with the animals was determined by “strictly scientific research,” the evolution of the human being from the animal realm and again within the animal realm itself the development from imperfect to more perfect beings.
Now it is not at all right to believe that the view that the human physical organisation is connected with the animals is new. It is not new at all. Even if you disregard the fact that you find the traces of it — or, actually, more than traces — already in the science of Greek antiquity, and basically also already with the Church Fathers, nevertheless, something important is contained in the fact that, for example, already Goethe as a very young person had to work his way through certain fantastic ideas of development which asserted themselves just in his time. Someone who knows Goethe from his own biography knows how he rebelled against the idea: if one only produced certain living conditions, animals could change into other animals, or even into human beings. Goethe rebelled against that, although he stood like Herder on the ground of the emergence of one organism from the other, and although they were followers of the “theory of evolution.” Besides, it is important to consider that not the theory of evolution is new as such, but that an older view was immersed into certain materialistic mental pictures that bring on the human organisation to the animal one in other ways as well. The character of interpretation, the whole way of thinking about the things is, actually, essential which has appeared in modern time. If you consider this, it will not be so difficult to find the transition to those mental pictures of evolution that we have to consider here today.
Someone who believes today to stand with a certain materialistic direction of thought on the firm ground of science and to have to characterise this theory of evolution says at first, the modern view of the origin of the human being from the animals stands in contrast with the superstitious biased way which still goes back anyhow to the Mosaic history of creation. — It cannot be my task today to speak about the Mosaic history of creation. I believe that it has often led to misunderstandings about what forms its basis, and that one deals with it in reality with an ancient human wisdom. That just as a side note. What is important to be considered today is that in an especially significant point the scientific theory of evolution is in full harmony with the Mosaic history of creation. That means this that in the course of the evolution of the living beings the human being appeared as it were as the most perfect animal or anything else when the remaining animals had anticipated their development already before him that he appears as it were as human being after the animals. The modern scientific worldview has this in common with the Mosaic history of creation.
Just the today's consideration must oppose that in particular. Thus, one could say, the novel aspect of this spiritual-scientific history of evolution consists of the fact that it must break just with that what faces it as a quite sure result today. Indeed, some of the mental pictures that can originate only on the ground of spiritual science are necessary if understanding should develop for such things, which are discussed today. It is necessary, for example, that one gets clear about such theoretical disputes, as they are quite usual that they must disappear, however, and will disappear, just if spiritual science settles more in the human souls.
Today you still meet the different worldviews that are apparently contradictory. On the one side, there are those human beings who interpret the world and its phenomena materialistically. One calls them “materialists.” The “spiritualists” are on the other side — not the “spiritists.” are meant, but “spiritualists” in the sense of German philosophy. The former represents the view that only the material is the basis of all being and becoming, and that the spiritual develops as it were from the material and its processes. The spiritualists emphasise, above all, that the “spirit” is to be observed as such in the human being that one has to take the spirit as starting point in case of every world consideration. It is completely irrelevant to spiritual science whether somebody takes materialism or spiritualism as starting point. The only which spiritual science demands from itself and from others is that one thinks the inner contents of thoughts and research through to the end. Let us assume that somebody becomes a materialist by his special disposition: if he really envisages the material and its phenomena and does research until the end, he gets without fail from the material to the spirit. If anybody is a spiritualist and does not deal with the spirit purely theoretically, but grasps it in its reality in such a way that he also grasps the manifestations of the spirit in the material, then the spiritualist also understands the bases and ramifications of the material processes. The starting point of the true spiritual-scientific researcher is quite different. It concerns that one has the inner courage to think the things through to the end really. However, this requires a certain power first which wants to think the things through to the end and secondly the ability to consider the phenomena really which one faces. Concerning the latter one can do strange discoveries. Who believes, actually, today that he stands more on the ground of the facts? This one stresses at every opportunity.
I have repeatedly pointed to an event in the sixties of the last century. However, it is always interesting to point to this fact once again. The philosophy of Eduard von Hartmann attempted to overcome the materialist interpretations of scientific results. When the Philosophy of the Unconscious appeared, the naturalists agreed that there a completely dilettantish philosopher talked about nature in such a way and knew, nevertheless, nothing right about that. Refutations of the Philosophy of the Unconscious were written. Among these refutations, one appeared by an anonym under the title The Unconscious from the Viewpoint of the Theory of Evolution and Darwinism. The author of this writing set himself to oppose this dilettantish opponent of Darwinism. Haeckel, Oscar Schmidt, and others said about this writing: it is a pity that this anonymous has not been called; we consider him as one of ours; since nobody can say the truth better than this anonymous against this scientific dilettante Hartmann. — They also contributed to the fact that the writing was quickly out of print. The second edition appeared, now with the name of the author: it was — Eduard von Hartmann! — This was once a lesson which was necessary and by which all those should be lectured who believe that somebody must always be a dilettante who does not speak about scientific results like a scientist.
Those listeners who were present at the former talks know that I have emphasised a book of the last time as an especially valuable one, namely The Origin of Organisms - a Refutation of Darwin's Theory of Chance by Oscar Hertwig (1849-1922). I regard this book as especially excellent and especially typical for our time for following reason: Oscar Hertwig, a disciple of Ernst Haeckel, came as a young man from the more or less materialist interpretation of the Darwinist research results.
I have said just now, every naturalist will stress that he stands on the “ground of facts.” You find a place in this impossible book by Hertwig that one reads possibly in such a way: one has to admire how the modern natural sciences have been initiated by the astronomical researches of Newton, Copernicus, and Kepler. Science has become great because it got used to looking at the things of physics, chemistry and biology just like at the astronomical things. Now I ask you, the consideration of the facts that are immediately round us should take place after the pattern of that area where the facts are so far away from us? I am convinced that most readers overlook such an unbelievable contradiction. It appears just in such a contradiction that a significant researcher cannot think so far that this research can be lifted into the spiritual.
Because of those and similar things it has happened that the whole modern theory of evolution has taken its starting point from too straight, too abstract mental pictures which are not able at all to approach the real facts, in particular not the facts which also refer to the solution of the big riddle of the human being.
This human riddle is to be characterised from the start in such a way that the human being seems to be assigned by his whole position in the world not to know at first what he represents in the world and how he stands there in it to get that only from the depths of his being what can enlighten him about his real being. This is also the sense of spiritual-scientific research that that is brought up from the depths of the human mind by special exercises which slumbers, otherwise, in him, which the usual consciousness does not apply at all, and which enables the human being for the “beholding consciousness.” Not before from the depths of the human soul that is brought up what I have called the beholding consciousness in my book The Riddle of Man where the human being has to deal with that which one can call “spiritual eyes” and “spiritual ears” to have a spiritual world around himself, then only one can generally tackle a solution of the big riddles.
These explanations should confirm it: the human being oversleeps his being. A part of the talks should show that the human being oversleeps a part of his being and continues the sleeping state into the waking state. In the depths of his being, something is perpetually sleeping, and his being must be awakened only. As you need that in the usual day life which sleep gives, you need for the usual knowledge if it should be fertile that which the human being oversleeps in his being perpetually. I said, we have to consider the facts at first that are round us. It matters in particular that you put yourself in the position to consider the difference of human being and animal from the viewpoint of the beholding consciousness; since, otherwise, you cannot attain knowledge of the development and origin of the human being and the animal. Now I want to explain sketchily what one can say from the spiritual-scientific viewpoint about the difference of human being and animal.
The animal realm faces us in most different forms. The animals are variously developed. Hence, one divides them into “genera” and “species.” You know that there have been numerous philosophers who were of the opinion that that which one calls “genus” or “species” — “wolves,” “lions,” “tigers” and so on — are only comprising names. What we meet in reality, is always the “material” which is formed most different by its own configuration only. Against it, one has to observe once impartially what there is, actually. There I have to recall a picture repeatedly which my old friend, Professor Vincenz Knauer (1828-1894, Austrian theologian and philosopher) always used when was talk of these things. He said, nevertheless, those people who state that these are only names that are expressed in these genera and species that it is, however, everywhere the same material they should think about whether it is really the same material that is in a lamb and in a wolf. Indeed, one cannot deny that, scientifically considered, it is the same material. However, one should feed a wolf for longer time with nothing but lambs, and one should try once whether he has assumed something of the lamb nature. There it is quite clear that that which constitutes the “wolf” which determines his configuration is not a mere “name” but something that encloses the material in this configuration.
With which is that associated that develops and configures these different animal species in its way? I have to confess, I touch personal relations very reluctantly, but because I can only outline, it is necessary that I do such a personal remark.
For about thirty years, I look at everything that physiological research produces in relation to these questions and compare it to that which the spiritual-scientific research has to say. It would be very attractive to hold a series of talks by which is proved what I state now. What configures itself in the different animal forms is intimately connected with the correlation of forces in the animal structure. Study the structure of an animal very exactly, but not only in such a way as it presents itself to the outer eye, but study the structure of an animal according to its correlation of forces: how different an animal behaves to gravity and how it overcomes gravity if the hind legs are formed different from the forelegs how different an animal appears according to whether it has hooves or claws and the like.
Study how the animal positions itself with its balance in the given relations, and then you find the most intimate relation between the conditions of earthly balance and the kind how the animal is positioned in these conditions of balance. Just these conditions of balance are radically different with the human being and in the animal realm. The human being lifts himself out of the conditions of balance in which the animal is put, by the fact that the line that runs through the spinal cord, runs with the animal in parallel with the earth surface but with the human being, it runs vertically to the earth. I do not mean the wholly outer position, because of course the human being also is in parallel to the earth surface if he sleeps. The human being is organised in such a way that the gravitational direction of the earth coincides with the line of his spinal cord. With the animal, the cerebral line is in parallel to the earth surface. The gravitational line of the human being that runs through his head coincides in certain respect with the main line of the remaining organism. His head rests on the gravitational line of the body; with the animal, it overhangs.
The human being is thereby put in a condition of balance that is different from that of the animal; thereby he is in that condition of balance which he gives himself only during the time of his life, because he is born in a similar condition of balance as the animal. While the human being lifts himself out of the conditions of balance that are forced upon the animal, he lifts himself out of all forces, which form the basis of the different genera and species; he becomes a “genus,” a “species.” He gets free from that what is with the remaining animal beings the reason of the manifold creation; he himself creates his figure, while he gets free from this determinative reason by his upright position.
Everything that is expressed in the human language, in the human thinking is intimately connected with these conditions of balance. Indeed, just the materialist research in the second half of the nineteenth century brought this to our attention; however, it could not completely make use of this fact. Since someone who thinks his way into the subtle configuration of the material can realise that one being in another way takes up the material of the outer nature, it is brought in directions quite different from all other beings. The human being thereby towers above the remaining animal realm. With it is connected that the whole human condition of balance comes about in full measure in the organism itself, while that of the animal comes about related to the world.
Take the coarsest only: the animal stands on all fours; the human being is bound to a certain balance that is not determined from without but is formed in his own organism. Now something particular is connected with this other condition of balance. Since the human being has a vague feeling of this equilibrium position that is similar to dream. This feeling is as vague as a dream, sometimes only vague as the sleep. As what does this sensation of resting on the own body live in the usual consciousness? This sensation is identical with the self-consciousness. What we get to know in the next talk as the human “mind,” which reveals itself in the ego at first, seizes itself in the human organisation in these conditions of balance that the animal does not have. I said, the modern theory of evolution-has something suggestive, so that one can believe that everything is dilettantish that is said against it. It has something fascinating if one says that the human being has as many bones and muscles as an animal has, how could he be a different being? However, in that which the human being has as the same with the animal the ego does not at all live. The ego does not live in the bones and muscles, does not intervene there, but seizes itself in the feeling at first that rests in the equilibrium.
However, there is something else. The animal realm has manifold shapes. Is this manifold configuration not significant for the human being? Because the human being separates by his other equilibrium from all conditions of balance in which the animal is forced, he has his own figure that appears like a summary of the animal figures. However, everything that works in the animal figures enjoys life in him. It is in him, but it is spirit. What is spread out as phenomena manifest to the senses about the most different animal figures is spiritual in the human being. What is it in him?
To the Imaginative observation arises that completely the same lives in the human being that gives the sensory figure to the animal, but as a supersensible nimble element. It lives in his thinking. What causes that we can think about the things is — in supersensible way — the same as that what the manifold genera and species of the animals are. Because the human being breaks away from the diversity of the animals and gives himself his independent figure that is the dwelling place of the ego, he appropriates invisibly what is visible in the animal world. This lives in his thinking. In the animal realm is poured out in the most manifold forms what is poured out in us, while we survey the world with thinking. We pursue what we can observe; we form thoughts about that. Of course, I know everything that can be argued against it. I also know the objection: are you able to behold into the animals? May the animal not have a kind of thinking as the human being has? However, someone who can adopt the Goethean principle that the phenomena are the right teaching if one observes them properly knows that that which becomes obvious in the phenomena is also decisive for the observation. One of the most essential signs is that that which is poured out sensorily about the manifold animal forms lives in the human being in extrasensory way.
While he freed his figure from the formative forces of the animals, he can take this in his supersensible. The animals are more advanced in relation to the sensory configuration than the human being is. The human being has an unstable figure. The animal is built according to the whole earth. With the human being, it is different; he has taken it in his figure. That is why he can grasp that spiritually what is expressed in the sensory form of the animal.
Already in this point, one sees what, actually, the modern theory of evolution suffers from. I am allowed to say, just because I have become a follower of the modern theory of evolution but have tried to lead it really to an end, I have found what it suffers from. It represents everything straight: the imperfect animals, then the more perfect ones, the even more perfect ones, up to the human being. However, the matter is not that way. Someone who considers the phenomena independently, gets on that this only ascending development is actually one-sided; since it lacks an essential element, which is considered here and there, indeed, in our time, but is not really investigated to an end and applied to the single one. One has to deal with a perpetually ascending development and with a perpetually descending development. The descending development would signify what is just so important for the understanding of the human being, and also there I advise you again to consider physiological matters, but without prejudice.
If one stops at the general trivial ideas of evolution, one imagines that the human being is the most perfect one of the animals that even his single organs, even if really here and there descending developments are admitted, are basically in ascending development. This is not the case. I could bring in many examples.
I want to mention one thing only. Study the human eye and compare it to the eyes of the vertebrates: if you go down in the animal realm, you find a more complex construction than with the human being. With him, the eye has become simpler again. I only want to mention that the xiphoid process and the pecten that exist with the eyes of lower animals are not to be found with the human being. The development has forced back them again. The human eye is a more imperfect organ than that of lower animals. The complete human organism has not only become more perfect if one studies it really compared with the animal organisms, but it has also receded. What has happened?
Because certain forces have been disabled, the human being could become a bearer of the spiritual-mental, could take up this spiritual-mental. What I have called up to now is nothing but a degeneration, “devolution,” in contrast to “evolution.” Take that which gives the single animal the form, which it has, and another animal another form: this thought completely determines the whole organisation of the animal. The human being, however, forms back his organisation. It does not advance so far to be determined completely, it goes back to a former level. Thereby he can give himself the equilibrium position which nature does not give him; thereby he gets free from that which nature forces upon the other beings. The whole formation of the human being has stayed behind; from it that originated which became an organ of thinking in the human being. What forms the basis of thinking is the organ of thinking because it is formed back because it has not advanced as far as the animal form has advanced, which expresses the figure externally. The human being lives the form back and can live out the form in thinking in supersensible way as the animal lives out it in the sensory realm.
One more point: we deal with the human being not only with evolution, but also with devolution, with involution. Just because the human being is more formed back than the animal, he can become the bearer of something spiritual-mental generally. With everything that I have explained up to now, something else is connected. Someone who can really observe how in the animal is expressed what must be an organ of imagination, of percipience, of feeling, so the anterior parts of the animal organisation, finds out that that which expresses itself in the form expresses itself objectively. He finds that this part has to deal with imagining, perceiving and feeling, and that the posterior part deals with the will element. Of course, both sides are connected. Because the animal is put in its equilibrium, it has that side by side which the human being has on top of each other: the will organisation on the one hand and the intellectual and instinctive organisation, on the other hand. There is another connection in the animal between the intellectual, imaginative and will element. With the human being, the organs of imagination are above the organs of will. An inner contact is thereby created between the organs of will and those of imagination. Someone who knows to observe the soul life realises that this human life of imagining is characterised by the fact that the will extends into it. Study the problems of attention, you will realise that the will works into it. Thereby the ability of abstract thinking originates which the animal cannot have because its imagination originates beside the will and not above it. And vice versa: the will and the imagining life work together, so that also the will is influenced by imagination.
Only because the organs of will belong to the subconscious ones, the will itself is expressed only like in the sleeping consciousness. The human being has the real will process in the sleeping consciousness as the other processes of the sleeping consciousness. The whole connection of imagining and willing which is typical for the human being is thereby emphasised: imagining is lightened by the will which is with the animal always in a vague, dream-like state. Likewise, the will is more intimately connected with imagining with the animal, it feels much more connected with its will. This causes again that with the human being the free emotional life relates different to imagining and will, enjoys life much more intensely than with the animal. With the animal the emotional life rests in the organisation; it is as it were only a formal arrangement of the life of thought. On the other side, the emotional life of the animal is only an inhibited or uninhibited will life, depending on whether it can reach or not reach something. This is expressed in its whole life. Just thereby, it is much more connected with the whole outer world.
If we envisage this, we can understand something else that, however, only a careful observation of the human soul life can give. Spiritual science has to proceed in many a respect different from the other science that takes up the things often from the trivial imagination and rejects them then because it cannot get on how the things are to be explained. The spiritual researcher will aim more at the positive, will not be content to take up, for example, the idea of immortality, of the continuance of the soul being, but will primarily ask, how does the human being generally get around to having the “immortal” as a thought or as a feeling in himself? How does he get around to assuming that the immortal can play a role in his soul life?
One can understand this only if one can expand the Goethean teaching of metamorphosis so far that one can approach the question, to what extent is the human being dependent on his lower nature in relation to his higher nature that is expressed by his head? While we have tried up to now to understand the special connection of thinking and willing with the human being and animal, now one has to go into that what connects the human being with the animal concerning something that is intimately connected with the problem of evolution. This enters in the animal and human life by the two phenomena of conception — I do not say of birth — what one considers as the first origin of the human, the combination of the male and the female elements, and death on the other side. Conception and death are bound to certain parts of the human and animal organism; in case of conception, this is evident from the start.
Now one has to realise that that which appears at one place in any animal form — it is similar with the plants — is also expressed in other organ systems but transformed. I would like to call attention to the following from the start: how does that behave with the human being and with the animal what is connected with conception and death, because one has already found out, nevertheless, one difference that is directly bound to the organisation? There it becomes apparent that the human and animal head is, actually, only a higher organised, transformed abdomen, as strange as it sounds, just as after the worldview of Goethe the bones of the skull are transformed dorsal vertebrae.
With the physical creation one deals with the fact that the single organ systems are real transformations of each other, and the functions of the organ systems are transformations of each other. What is “percipience”? Percipience relating to the outside world with the senses is a higher developed conception, specified by the different senses. Because the head organism stunts certain other organs, forces them into the limbs, the organism of conception develops to the higher sensory organism of the head on the one side, and thus the progressive conception corresponds to the advanced sense perception of the head. Every organic system develops the whole organism in a way; the head everything that the abdomen contains, the abdomen everything that the head contains. Because the formative forces of the limbs have atrophied that is expressed spiritually what belongs to their life in the head. The ability of production changes into the developing of thoughts. In the head, the organ of thinking is developed simply because the conceptual is developed unilaterally and the productive is formed back, but the productive thereby gives again the basis of the thoughts. Since as animal and human being produce their equals by the other organism, the human being produces himself spiritually: just the world of thought. The world of thought is the spiritualised human being.
This thought has a big scope, and only with deep regret, I exhaust such things in one single talk. Since such things are the result of decades of spiritual research. However, they must be pronounced once, because these things have to be popularised, so that someone who can investigate it in the medical centres and laboratories can also investigate the details, as they must be investigated.
In the animal life, conception and death are apart like beginning and end of the animal life. Conception and everything that is connected with it leads to the knowledge of the progressive development. Everything, however, that determines the death of the animal out of the relations of the earthly life is connected with the retrograde development. One gets on only spiritual-scientifically what conception and death are real for the animal, for the whole evolution of the animal. The animal is seized by everything that is associated with conception and production. This evolution is the highest development of the organic life. It is just like with an increase of the organic life, with fever if you like, that the usual state of consciousness, which is right for its being, is forced back. Thus, a reduction of consciousness is connected with the excitement of the organic life, and the consciousness is increased with everything that is connected with a retrograde. The moment of highest clarification, of most intensive consciousness is the moment of death — and as a spiritual researcher, I am allowed to say, a moment where the animal element approaches the human one; try only once to observe animals at death. These two moments of the highest reduction and the greatest increase of consciousness, conception and death, are with the animal like two widely separated points, like beginning and end.
With the human being, it is different. Because the head lifts out itself in the described way from the remaining organisation, the human being is so organised that he experiences the interplay of conception and death perpetually. This happens during the whole life. We are so organised that we experience in the brain which forms the basis of our thinking in its connection between percipience and will perpetually, transferred to the spiritual, with every production of a thought — but like sleeping or even subconsciously — what the animal experiences, otherwise, only once during conception. On the other hand, death is perpetually involved in our consciousness because the organism changed into the head has the head as its spiritual organism. We are dying at every moment. Precisely expressed: whenever we grasp a thought, the human will is born in the thought; whenever we will, the thought dies into the will. Will and thought belong together in such a way, as, for example, the young man and the old man, while the will thereby becomes will that the thought has died down in it, and on the other hand the will goes through its youth while the thought is born in it.
The human being is perpetually experiencing birth and death. I have described the human spatial configuration with the help of the balance relationships. Concerning time, it is in such a way that with the human being that runs through the whole life which the animal can experience only at the beginning and end; in a dreamish way he experiences conception and death perpetually in his subconsciousness. Because this lives below in the depths of the human souls, emerges from there and the human being becomes vaguely aware of that which he carries as conception and death in himself and not beside himself and thereby has the feeling: his being lives after death and birth, it encloses more than that which starts with conception and ends at death. The human being carries conception and death in himself. I pronounce it in short words. However, if you investigate everything that physiology and psychology can give presently, you will find it confirmed. This generates the idea of immortality in the human being. Thereby he carries the sensation, the thought of immortality really in himself. Only then, you can consider the connection of animal and human being if you regard this.
How does the human being stand there finally? He is more retrograde than the animal is, and this just gives him the basis of his spiritual being. If you check him completely, you find the strange: as the eye is retrograde, everything of his appearance is retrograde, is formed back into the spiritual compared with the animal. He unfolds this on the same conditions on which the animal unfolds its being. The same relations work on the animal and the human being. They work on the human being, while they provide him as it were with a “shell.” What I have described now is, actually, the inside of the human being. This is transformed in such a way that he can produce his own equilibrium that he has that, which takes shape with the animal, in the versatile forms of his thoughts. Thereby he faces the outside world like concluded by a shell.
Spiritual science actually is able to discover only what you can discover in the human being. It can penetrate through this shell. However, what turns out then? Something similar as with the memory. We perceive the outside world as it is, and process it. However, we remember in the later life what we have taken up from the outside world. Today I cannot explain what the organism of memory is based on; but it is based of course not on the organisation of the body periphery, but on that of the body inside. If you go with the beholding consciousness into that what the shell conceals, then you bring up what causes everything in the depth of the human nature that I described today.
The shell is evoked by that which determines the today's animal realm. How does that differ from it, which lives in the human inside? This becomes to the seer like an increased, beheld memory; there he gets up something from the human being that becomes vivid. As well that appears to the usual consciousness which the senses have experienced, something presents itself to the beholding consciousness, if one delves into that what is down there. Then one finds that that time of development which the human being spent together with the animals — the time of the earthly evolution — followed another time for the human being in which the today's animals could not yet develop. The human being developed before the animal realm, but in another figure of course; since he assumed the today's figure because he was put in relations that formed the animals. However, what rests in the “shell” leads back to a former creation of the earth, to a state that we do not get to know by geologic conclusions. We recognise that the human being is older than the animals that the animals originated later. They are related with the human beings but they originated later. Since we come back to a form of the planet when the animals did not yet exist. The planet looked in such a way that on the effect of its conditions that could form which must be protected today with the outer shell, which faces the animal world today.
The seer experiences that as vision first which I have explained as a thought today: he looks back at former states of the earth. However, this gives just the impulse to look at the developmental states in such a way as they are as they must be, so that one can see what one finds if one only looks.
However, there are still other relations. Today one agrees in the trivial scientific life completely to consider the phenomena of the earth like the astronomical phenomena; but it has taken some time until this thought asserted within the modern humanity. One can have an experience. If you come to Mülhausen (now: Mulhouse) in Alsace, you find a monument: On top is a celestial sphere, before it a statue of Johann Heinrich Lambert (1728-1777, Swiss-Alsatian physicist, philosopher), a contemporary of Kant who invented something similar, but much more brilliant than the so-called Kant-Laplace theory. If one still added something that Lambert thought, one would not be far away from that which spiritual science is today.
However, today one is ready that the monument of that man is erected by the decisions of the city council who has a share of modern astronomy. However, if one goes back hundred years from the erection of the monument, one meets something different. At that time, Lambert was a young son of a poor dressmaker. Few people anticipated what was in him, Kant, for example, called him the “greatest genius of the century,” and his father submitted request about request to the city council that the son could get further. Then there one gave him forty francs, but only on the condition that he should leave the city and not return. This was hundred years ago. After hundred years — the monument was erected! Thus, the human development takes place, one example of many.
I come back to my starting point: The modern scientific way of thinking has the same thought with the Mosaic history of creation in common that the human being appears after the animals. Against it, modern spiritual science has to say that the human being precedes the animals, and that one has to go back to such a state in which the human being could only develop that which he was at that time while he had to expose himself to the outer conditions. There one comes back to developmental states of our life on earth, which look different from what one calls Kant-Laplace theory. Externally a primeval nebula may have developed and conglomerated. Some time ago, I have quoted significant words of Herman Grimm: the fact that once later generations will have a lot of trouble to think about the eccentricity of the present, which believed that from such a primeval nebula everything developed that is there now. However, it will take long time, until humanity will be so ripe for a spiritual understanding of the things that one can consider the riddle of the human being as I have done it today.
Then, however, another idea of development arises, and I do not shy away from repeating something that I have already brought to your attention, because I have to show repeatedly from which side life and movement have to be brought in the scientific thinking of our time.
One can have scientific correct thoughts, but these can be very far away from reality. There I have pointed over and over again to that lecture of Professor James Dewar (1842-1923) in London at the Royal Institution in which he explained how the earth would be after 200,000 years. It is calculated quite correctly and one cannot doubt it, just as one can calculate the Kant-Laplace theory quite correctly. One can also calculate this final state of the earth, cooled down below 200 degrees centigrade. There is no mistake: then our atmosphere is condensed into water. Dewar explains it in all details that then the things on earth have assumed other aggregate states. Milk will be solid of course. Indeed, I do not know how it should be produced then; but it will be solid of course. Certain objects will fluoresce; one will be able to coat the walls with protein so that one can read newspapers at night. There is no mistake. However, the question is whether it is not only “right,” but whether it is also “real” whether the thinking knows where it has to stop because it is no longer in reality. Which methods are used to calculate these things? Methods, as for example the following: anybody studies the stomach of a 30-year-old person; he pursues it for more than 300 years and calculates how after 300 years the stomach of this person would be. He can calculate this as well as Professor Dewar calculates the final state of the earth.
Only that is the mistake that then the human being does no longer live, just as the earth does no longer exist after 200,000 years. Likewise, one could calculate how the earth looked 300,000 years ago, because in the same way one can also calculate the Kant-Laplace theory; but at that time the earth did not yet exist. It concerns that one learns to distinguish realistic thinking and only “correct” thinking.
With it, I have said a lot. Since the thought that one gets by the study of the human being to relations where the earth looked completely different is only to be gained if one applies realistic thinking. Then one can also have a thought about how the human being who is protected with the characterised outer shell from the present earthly conditions — which will be quite different from those which Professor Dewar describes —, so that the human being develops into times when the earth will be very different when the today's animals will no longer exist.
This was a spiritual-scientific discussion about the origin and the development of the human realm and the animal realm. Next time I want to show how the human being returns in repeated lives on earth, so that one can again accept Lessing's view of repeated lives on earth. Today I wanted to create a basis to show that spiritual science gets to quite different initial and final states of our earth, and that, indeed, one has to break with the opinion that the animal realm was there first and the human being could then develop on its basis. The human being precedes with his development. Spiritual science will assert these things. A very spirited and vigorous researcher of the nineteenth century, Wilhelm Heinrich Preuss (1853-1909) had an anticipation of it.
There you find the first beginning of these things, but there everything remains more or less assertion. These things can be investigated first if one penetrates with the beholding consciousness into the spiritual-mental of the human being, about which natural sciences cannot speak at all. Since they can only ask, how is the human being related as a spiritual-mental being to the animal organisation? However, the highest of the spiritual-mental does not relate at all to the animal organisation, but it lifts out the organisation, produces quite different equilibrium relationships, so that the experience of conception and death coincides at one moment, so that in the human being by the continuous perception of conception and death the experience of immortality vaguely lights up. | 2019-04-19T00:52:46 | https://wn.rsarchive.org/Lectures/Dates/19180415p01.html |

Dementia is the umbrella term used to describe a set of symptoms relating to cognitive functioning and behavioral abilities. This includes thinking, remembering, and reasoning. If severe enough, it can affect a person’s memory, language skills, visual perception, problem solving, self-management, and the ability to focus and pay attention.
The term ‘dementia’ itself can sometimes be heard being used in reference to some elderly people. Although some mild memory and cognitive decline in an elderly person is inevitable, it is not a normal part of aging. The loss of once-healthy neurons in the brain due to lost connection with other brain cells is far greater in people with dementia than the average elderly person.
As described, dementia itself is refers to a set of symptoms experienced by a person. Its cause, however, can be varied. Alzheimer’s disease is the most well-known and also the most common cause of dementia, accounting for around 60 to 80% of all cases. Other types of dementias include, Lewy body dementia, frontotemporal disorders, vascular dementia, and as many as 50 other causes. Sometimes a person may even be diagnosed with a combination of two or more types of dementia.
Dementia in general affects older people. It is estimated that around 5% to 8% of all adults over the age of 65 have some form of dementia, with the percentage doubling every 5 years ager 65. Among people in their 80s, it is estimated that as many has half have some dementia.
However, there are also some forms of dementia that affect people younger than 65, known as early-onset dementia. This can either be genetically induced or due to other external factors. Frontotemporal dementia is one such type that is more common in middle aged adults than older adults.
These include Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease, and some types of multiple sclerosis. These diseases progressively worsen over time and have no known cure.
These are disorders that affect the blood circulation in your brain. For example, a blood clot or stroke in the brain can a type of dementia known as vascular dementia.
These injuries could be caused by car accidents, falls, concussions, etc. The nature of the dementia varies depending on the type and location of the head injury. Usually, dementia caused by brain injuries do not progressively worsen over time. Sometimes, there is a possibility for improvement, though it may take some months or years.
These include meningitis, HIV, and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. This type of dementia is often curable though medications that treat the underlying condition if diagnosed early.
Long-term alcohol and drug use can damage nerve cells in the brain thereby inducing symptoms of dementia. With proper rehabilitation and sobriety, individuals with this kind of dementia can make partial or even full recoveries.
Hydrocephalus is the buildup of fluid in the brain, which can induce symptoms of dementia.
All the different types of dementias that exist can be split into two categories: cortical dementias and subcortical dementias.
Cortical dementias happen due to a problem in the cerebral cortex, which is the outer layer of the brain. This layer is important for memory and language. This type of dementia usually causes severe memory loss and a high inability to remember words or understand language. Alzheimer’s and Creutzfeldt-Jakob diseases are two examples of cortical dementia.
Subcortical dementias occur due to problems in parts of the brain beneath the cerebral cortex. Individuals with this form of dementia usually show a decline in the speed of their thinking and ability to start activities and not in memory or language. Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease, and HIV are some examples of subcortical dementias.
While it is normal to occasionally forget a thing or two is normal, someone with dementia may forget things more often. For example, when shopping for groceries, they may not remember buying an item (ex. Cereal) and go back to the shop to buy the same thing again. Misplacing things is also a common occurrence. The memory problem usually affects more recent memories as you will find that often the person still has clarity over older memories.
This symptom also relates somewhat to a person’s memory problems. When in the middle of any tasks or activities, the person may get distracted or forget the steps. For example, when cooking, they may forget to follow all the steps in preparing the meal or they may end up repeating certain processes multiple times. Sometimes, in order to compensate, the person may start relying more and more on others to remind them of things or start writing things down. This can be especially obvious for those are still in a work setting.
Disorientation refers to a person’s losing track of time and or place. They may have difficulty finding their way around familiar locations or not remember their destination all of a sudden. Their sense of the passage of time can also be distorted, with difficulties in keeping track of date and time. They may even think that they are back in some past time of their life.
During the early stages of dementia, language problems may not be immediately evident. However, there are a few signs that can give you a clue. Firstly, they may get lost in conversations or forget the topic of conversation. They may also struggle to use the right words to refer to or describe things. Instead, they may substitute with other words, making it difficult for others to understand. In turn, they could also have trouble understanding others. For example, a person may refer to a watch as a ‘hand-clock’.
A person with dementia may exhibit poor judgement for simple things such as what to wear to big things like how to manage their finances. For example, a person might dress in clothing suited for summer in the middle of winter or pay less attention to grooming and keeping themselves clean. On a more serious note, a person who was always previously careful with their finances may suddenly find themselves in trouble with excessive spending. They are also especially gullible to scams and telemarketing.
A combination of memory problems and challenges with tasks, a person with dementia can have trouble developing and following plans and procedures. Things like following recipes and keeping track of bills become increasingly difficult. They might have difficulty concentrating on a task and take much longer to complete them than they did before. This is also more obvious in work settings where a person has to use these skills on a regular basis.
Changes in mood, personality, and behavior is usually not due to the dementia itself. Rather, it tends to stem from their overall frustration over the changes they are experiencing. Mood swings can be rather rapid where a person goes from being normal to confused to suspicious or even angry within a short amount of time. Failing at doing a simple task can induce stress and frustration. A formerly outgoing and social person may become quiet and withdrawn and a formerly quiet person may become more outgoing.
In some cases of dementia, problems with vision can be a symptom. The person may have difficulty reading, judging distance, and determining color or contrast. This can lead to challenging situations such as difficulties while driving.
Familiarity, both in their surroundings and their routines can be a huge comfort for someone with dementia. A change in this can agitate or make them uncomfortable. For example, going to a new place or having meals at varied timings can leave the person feeling overwhelmed.
Some of the biggest changes in the life of a person with early on-set dementia will be related to their job and their social circle. Sometimes an employer can be understanding and allow you take on a lighter workload for some time. However, eventually the person’s loss of income is inevitable. Outside of work, they may face stigmas and stereotypes about the disease due to the young age of diagnosis.
Explore what benefits may be offered to you under your government’s disabilities assistance.
Any long-term illness in general can strain a couple’s relationship. With a diagnosis such as early on-set dementia, it is more pronounced due to the inevitable loss and loneliness of the spouse. Knowing that one’s spouse’s health will slowly deteriorate until they are no more can cause many struggles and complications in their day to day lives.
Discuss about the kind of help you will need from each other at different stages of the dementia’s progression. Don’t be afraid of asking for help.
Continue doing activities together as a couple and plan for modifications and adaptations as the dementia progresses. You can also try to find new activities that both can enjoy.
Collate and organize resources that you might needs over the course of the disease.
Speak to a couple’s counsellor to help you discuss the issues and challenges in the relationship arising from the disease.
Often those who are diagnosed with early on-set dementia have children, who do not yet understand what is happening around them. They may blame themselves or others, become angry or react in a number of ways. Therefore, it is important to involve children in a positive manner and not try to keep them away from the illness.
Speak to your children honestly about what you’re experiencing and what will come as the disease progresses. Help them understand the diagnosis in a way that suits their age.
Find a support group for children and invite your kids to join you in your counseling sessions. Involve your child’s school counselor and social worker if you have one.
Make a written, audio, or video diary of your thoughts, feelings, and experiencing for your children. It’ll give them something of yours to remember.
Often those who are diagnosed with early on-set dementia have to eventually quite their job. The resulting loss of income can be quite a strain on them and their family, with household costs and the newly arisen medical care costs on them. This is even more pronounced if the other spouse doesn’t work or also has to quite to become a full-time caregiver.
Speak with a financial planner and an attorney to help you plan for your future financial needs.
Discuss with your employer if early retirement can be considered as an option.
Explore the benefits that may be available to you through social security, Medicare, or Medicaid.
Organize all financial documents and ensure that your spouse or partner understand and can manage your family’s finances.
Doctors may also prescribe sleeping pills or antidepressants to manage other dementia related problems such as insomnia, night terrors, and anxiety.
Besides medications, it is also important to keep yourself active and healthy, mentally and physically. Keep up with activities that you still enjoy as long as you can. Try meditation or yoga to relieve stress. | 2019-04-18T19:27:15 | https://www.dementiaaide.com/blogs/tips-for-dementia/top-signs-of-dementia |
I had to pass by and see the Christmas Illumination in Odori area, Sapporo this evening. I couldn’t believe that I took a photo of the illumination. It’s not so gorgeous but OK, isn’t it?
Christmas, for most of the Japanese, is an annual event without religious meaning. Telling you the truth, I don’t like this season and I do know the reason why.
It was when I was 5 or 6 years old, I wrote a letter to Santa Clause and wanted to put it into a mailbox, but my parents, or could have been my grandparents, tuned it down. I recall I begged and cried but in vain. It is one of my oldest memories and it’s vivid. | 2019-04-22T04:26:20 | https://eng.crossculturalguide.jp/2013/12/12/sapporo-illumination-nights/ |
Prophetic release of Words, dreams, visions and the like.
The Word of the Lord came to me in a powerful encounter on Friday, June 15th, 2012 while having lunch with a co-minister. This encounter lasted for over an hour and the Spirit ministered powerfully to us with accompanying visions and personal Words.
The Lord is pouring out His Spirit in dreams and visions and for those who have ears to hear what the Spirit is saying, pay heed to the prophetic instructions. | 2019-04-20T14:52:44 | http://elsabebriers.com/?paged=7&cat=4 |
Cæt stands for Communication And Eye-Tracking.
We are a group of researchers who work on psycholinguistics (the psychology of language), at the School of Psychology, University of Dundee, Scotland. The group is led by Dr Yuki Kamide, Lab Director.
We are also part of two research centres within the School: Language Research Centre (LaRC) and Centre for Occulomotor Research (Core).
Our main research interests centre around human language processing. In particular our research explores how people process language 'in context.' Language is often 'grounded' in a particular situation or context, and we try to work out how linguistic input/output interacts with such contexts, using various methodologies including eye-tracking techniques. More information about our research can be found here.

Athens, Ga. – The Georgia Museum of Art at the University of Georgia will present the exhibition “Icon of Modernism: Representing the Brooklyn Bridge, 1883-1950” from Sept. 17 to Dec. 11.
“Icon of Modernism” includes 40 paintings, watercolors, works on paper and photographs that all take the Brooklyn Bridge as a subject. Sarah Kate Gillespie, the museum’s curator of American art, chose works of art created between the completion of the bridge (1883) and the mid-20th century to show how artistic representations of it changed over time, even as it symbolized modernity for different generations. From American impressionism to abstract expressionism, the details of how artists presented the bridge changed, but its ability to stand for the modern era remained.
“When it opened, the Brooklyn Bridge was a phenomenon, and many commemorative objects featuring the bridge were produced. Other museums have shown the wide variety of these objects, but we decided to focus on the aesthetic portion alone,” said Gillespie, who was tasked with organizing the exhibition when the museum hired her in 2014.
Although it may seem strange for Athens to host an exhibition on a structure so tied to New York City, descendants of John A. Roebling, who designed the bridge, lived in Athens for many years. Portraits of Margaret Allison and Ferdinand William Roebling have been on view in the museum’s permanent collection galleries. In addition, the museum’s collection overlaps strongly with the span of time the exhibition covers; an exhibition of related works from that collection will be on view Sept. 17 to Dec. 31 in an adjoining gallery.
Artists with work in “Icon of Modernism” include painters Joseph Stella, John Marin, Yun Gee, Georgia O’Keeffe and Reginald Marsh and photographers Edward Steichen, Walker Evans, Weegee and Consuelo Kanaga. Four works in the exhibition come from the museum’s own collection, but the remainder are on loan from museums, corporate collections and private collections across the country. An illustrated catalog published by the museum will accompany “Icon of Modernism,” with scholarly essays by Gillespie, Janice Simon (Josiah Meigs Distinguished Teaching Associate Professor of Art History in UGA’s Lamar Dodd School of Art), Meredith Ward and Kimberly Orcutt.
Related events include 90 Carlton: Autumn, the museum’s quarterly reception ($5 or free for members of the Friends of the Georgia Museum of Art) on Sept. 16; public tours with Gillespie on Sept. 21 and Oct. 12 at 2 p.m; Student Night on Sept. 29; a film series beginning Oct. 6; a gallery talk by Gillespie and Stephan Durham, associate professor in the UGA College of Engineering, on Oct. 13 at 5:30 p.m.; the museum’s biennial Emerging Scholars Symposium, co-organized with UGA’s Association of Graduate Art Students, Oct. 21 and 22, with Richard Haw as the keynote speaker on Oct. 21; and Family Day Nov. 5 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. as part of UGA’s Spotlight on the Arts festival. All events are free and open to the public unless otherwise indicated.
“Icon of Modernism” is supported in part by an award from the National Endowment for the Arts. Additional support is provided by Shannon and Peter Candler, the Irwin and Hannah Harvey Family Fund, Teddy Johnson, the Piedmont Charitable Foundation, Margaret A. Rolando, the W. Newton Morris Charitable Foundation and the Friends of the Georgia Museum of Art.
Partial support for the exhibition and programs at the Georgia Museum of Art is provided by the Georgia Council for the Arts through appropriations of the Georgia General Assembly. The council is a partner agency of the National Endowment for the Arts. Individuals, foundations and corporations provide additional museum support through their gifts to the University of Georgia Foundation. The Georgia Museum of Art is located in the Performing and Visual Arts Complex on UGA’s East Campus. The address is 90 Carlton St., Athens, Ga., 30602-1502.

Like many· people from "up north", I visited my friends and relatives in Florida over the years and thought. ... nice place to live, maybe I will give it a try. It's been 19 years since we made the decision to move, my husband, Stephen and twin girls, Michelle and Renee and myself have been enjoying the Florida sunshine and lifestyle in Jupiter ever since.

I am excited to be a part of Paradise Real Estate International where I can leverage my experience and the new international presence Paradise Real Estate International will provide to assist my clients in making their Florida lifestyle a reality.
After moving to Jupiter in 2000, I passed the Florida Real Estate License exam and joined the National Association of Realtors in 2001. I specialize in residential homes, waterfront properties and beach front condominiums. Being a resident of Jupiter for over a decade, I've witnessed incredible growth and opportunity for selling and buying properties, in this area. My knowledge of this market and my negotiation skills have been an asset for my many clients.

I am interested in the long introduction (unfolding) form, in elemental tonal interaction, in aggregation and augmentation, in liminal perceptual states, shifts in density, the filtered atmosphere, and intense, focused experiences.
This is how US composer Catherine Lamb summarised her music to me in 2017. On that occasion, they served as an introduction to her then new piece Prisma Interius V, being premièred at that year’s Proms, but they apply just as much to portions transparent/opaque, composed in 2014. The work’s title hints at the presence of light, and this is primarily explored in an atmosphere of constantly shifting colour and clarity. In addition to these aspects, Lamb throws in a couple more, titling the work’s two movements ‘expand’ and ‘saturate’ respectively, suggesting something of the way this atmosphere manifests within its broader theoretical space or boundaries.
Using just the strings of the orchestra, ‘expand’ sets up thin, drawn-out lines of microtonal pitch, shaded with varying quantities of noise. Initially, though faint, these lines are concentrated in a small space, like the beam of a flashlight in thick fog. The fact that it’s obviously a tight cluster makes no difference to the integrity of what is practically a single, multifaceted line. Only very slowly does the titular expansion start to take effect, the widening harmonic palette articulated in alternation with brief hiatuses. The effect is rather like a collection of exhalations (the hiatuses thus becoming pauses for breath), each one gently stretching the confines of the music. In the process of doing this, clarity of the combined ‘beam’ that the strings create varies considerably. There are times when everything feels stable, capturing a complex consonance that at times even entertains brief reveries of ecstasy. These are countered by unexpected darkenings of the musical colour, through dissonances and depth, Lamb allowing the lower registers – absent for most of this ‘portion’ of the work – to make their presence quietly felt. It’s in this interplay of tensions that the work’s title can obviously be heard, the harmony veering around a continuum from translucence to gloom. Though i spoke of stability before, as ‘expand’ plays out, i can’t help wondering whether it ultimately renders notions of ‘stable’ and ‘unstable’ moot, even irrelevant. Lamb is not presenting us with a typical narrative, and its drama is less about threat and resolution than a more mild, quasi-arbitrary varying in intensity. Put another way, some chords sound final, others inconclusive, but perhaps both concepts are meaningless within this particular musical environment.
The second, much shorter, ‘portion’ adds brass and timpani to the strings. Though titled ‘saturate’, the work’s established approach of gradation and restraint continues to apply here, and while the quality of the chords now forming are far more rich and convoluted than previously – pitches juddering and beating against each other in what almost sounds like the product of physical friction – there’s no attempt to literally saturate the space. The range of the atmosphere is undoubtedly very much larger and wider, but its density seems to be correspondingly reduced, stretched if you like, meaning that the harmonic richness of the chords is matched by a thinness that forms another interesting interplay between opaqueness and transparency.
There’s an open-ended quality to the piece, and the way portions transparent/opaque ends sounds less like a conclusion than just another of its recurring temporary pauses. This may be due to the fact that Lamb has conceived a possible third ‘portion’ to complete the piece – which would be titled ‘collapse’ and introduce the hitherto unused woodwind – or it may simply be because the music provides a window into an environment that has no strict beginning or end, but just continues to quietly fluctuate in hue and intensity for as long as we care to look at it.
The world première of portions transparent/opaque took place at the 2014 Tectonics festival in Glasgow, performed by the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra conducted by Ilan Volkov.
Like your recently featured Naomi Pinnock work “The field is woven”, Lamb’s work here is sonically generous but musically rather meager, isn’t it? An episodic chain of subtly shifting sound and color has its attractions, but so does the wind whistling through a copse of trees. The difference between whistling wind and a work by, say, Stravinsky, is vast, but here the difference is smaller—and it seems valid to ponder the question, why?, and to question not only why composers content themselves with this minimalist sonic aesthetic, but listeners as well.
No, i don’t believe it is meagre, and if i did, i wouldn’t have bothered to write about it. i guess it depends whether you go to music to get certain things from it – i.e. with certain preformed definitions and criteria of what to you constitutes a ‘satisfying’ listening experience – or attempt to approach a piece on its own terms, according to its definitions and criteria. The latter is what i strive for.
If this piece doesn’t provide you with sufficient nourishment, fair enough, but as with so much music (at least, so much good music), to my mind there’s a great deal more to this piece than just the moment by moment sounds that we’re hearing. The same goes for Naomi’s piece too. | 2019-04-21T04:17:06 | http://5against4.com/2019/03/27/catherine-lamb-portions-transparent-opaque-world-premiere/ |

Dr. Hugh Catts presented on the topic of “Language Basis of Reading Disabilities: Implications for Early Identification and Intervention.” His keynote presentation focused on reading comprehension and where it can go wrong, as well as strategies for early identification of students with reading difficulties. He outlined the challenges children with dyslexia have, and how to most effectively help these students using appropriate interventions.
Tying this information to classroom practice, Barbara Wilson’s presentation, “Individual Differences: Fine Tuning Your Wilson Instruction,” focused on how to tailor Wilson instruction to students’ needs and become even more efficient during lessons. She was also on hand throughout the conference for comments and suggestions, as well as to catch up with teachers and trainers.
Continuing the focus on specific learning processes, Dr. Cheryl Chase and Dr. Michele Berg discussed specific examples of internal struggles for students both in and outside of the classroom. Dr. Chase’s talk covered executive functioning, the way an individual remains organized and focused as they try to complete a task. She highlighted the impact weak executive functioning skills can have on a student, and how families can help strengthen these skills. Dr. Berg focused on working memory, which affects decoding and reading comprehension.
The breakout sessions provided an opportunity for teachers and trainers to learn more about topics relevant to their roles. The trainers attended a session by Dr. Kay Psencik, a senior consultant for Learning Forward, on coaching strategies and effective practices that focus on the coachee throughout the coaching process. Dr. Eileen Harris presented a session on effective assessments and how they apply to Wilson instruction. The teachers had a chance to learn from Nanci Shepardson about assistive technology resources. Wilson Fidelity Team members rounded out the conference with practical, hands-on sessions.
In between breaks attendees enjoyed games, had the opportunity to purchase books related to each talk at the Wilson bookstore, and visit the Dyslexia Foundation and the Learning Ally exhibit booths. Learning Ally also hosted a raffle during the conference. Sharon H. from Concord Public Schools in Massachusetts took home a 10-seat School Membership and Joan G. from Framingham, MA, received a free pass to the Spotlight on Dyslexia conference.
Participants are already looking forward to next year. | 2019-04-21T04:15:18 | https://www.wilsonlanguage.com/scenes-from-wilsons-2015-conferences/ |

Bells and Barbells / Uncategorized / Staying on track during your Bachelorette Bash!
We see it all the time. Brides crush their workouts in the gym with us for weeks and months. They get up in the morning day after day “sweating for the wedding” and see great results. Their weight is down, body fat % keeps melting away, strength numbers are increasing every week, and they are looking and feeling great about their progress. All is well, until your bachelorette party rolls around.
A 5-day weekend of drinking bottomless mimosas, bottles of wine, eating out for every meal, and then nursing a hangover for 3 days afterwards, can really throw a wrench into your ability to keep progressing for that wedding bod you so desire. I’m not trying to be the fun police and tell you not to drink during your Bach party. Nor am i telling you to be super strict with your diet while on a fun vacation while the rest of your crew is breaking more bread than the last supper. You should be able do these things and have a great time with your friends! We want that for you. We also know that if you have a plan and some direction we can help you salvage your progress and keep you on track for your wedding day goals.
1) You are nursing a hangover that would take down an African water buffalo.
2) You don’t have a workout plan.
It is much easier to get a great workout in if you can take the thinking out of it. Personally, I hate going to the gym without a plan and I tend to not see great progress without a little prep.
Here are a few tips that will help you set a game-plan for your workout. First off, keep the workout short. You are there to celebrate and spend time with your friends, not to spend 2 hours at the gym. Nobody want or has the time to do that. So get in and out of there in 30 minutes or less, that’s all you need!
Option 1) Go for a walk. Seriously, that’s it! 20-30 minute around the block or on the treadmill, just to get a light sweat going.
This option pairs well with a Hangover Level of 10/10.
Option 2) Go for a light jog. It’s like option 1 but just a little more intense. Go at an easy pace, for 20-30 minutes and stretch for a few minutes afterwards. You could also do this on the elliptical/bike.
This option would work best with a Hangover Level 6 or less.
Option 3) Easy intervals. A combination of options 1 and 2; only slightly more effective and less boring. Get on the treadmill, go outside, or utilize another cardio machine. Keep the work to rest ratio low (1:2 or higher). One of my personal favorites is 15 seconds hard, 45 seconds easy for 15 minutes. 30 seconds hard, 60 seconds easy is also an option if you are feeling up to the challenge. Do these workouts for 15-20 minutes and your hangover will be almost completely flushed.
Option 4) Bodyweight circuit. Here’s a simple, but effective one: 20 bodyweight Squats, 10 Push-Ups, 10 Walking Lunges (each leg or 20 total), 50 jumping-jacks, and a 30-second side plank on each side. Repeat this for 5 rounds and it will only take about 15-20 mins.
This option work best with a Hangover Level of 7.
Option 5) Full-Body Dumbbell Circuit. The possibilities are endless, but here is a great activity for those that want to keep some strength while away: 10 Dumbbell Front Squats, 10 Dumbbell Overhead Presses, 10 Dumb Squat Jumps for 3 sets. Then follow that up with 10 Walking Lunges on each leg, 10 bent-over Dumbbell rows, 10 Dumbbell Russian Dead Lifts for 3 sets. These two full-body supersets will keep you on the Gainz Train!
This option works best for a Hangover Level 5.
Obviously, these are not the only things you can do, but at least I’ve given you a few options to get you through your bachelorette weekend. You can follow them exactly or get creative and modify them based on how you are feeling and what equipment you have access to.
I also wanted to take a moment to talk about damage control on your diet. As expected, you will most likely be going out to eat for most of your meals. First rule: always eat breakfast! No matter how hung over or tired you are, get up and eat something. Take advantage of the hotel breakfast and grab an omelet, or some eggs and bacon with a side of fruits and veggies. Just make sure you get something that has protein in it. This will help your body keep your metabolism up and retain lean mass while you are binging the weekend away. Second, eat some protein and nutrient dense foods with every meal. This will help fill you up and hopefully reduce your total caloric intake when dining out. Order your preference of chicken, fish, lean beef or pork, and at least get a few vegetables. Lastly, and related to the previous point – keep the carbs low. Get the burger without the bun or a salad instead of french fries. The main reason for this is that I anticipate you will be drinking the majority of your carbs. If you can at least lower our intake during meals this will provide some damage control for all of the liquid calories. You don’t want to double-up on the carb-heavy meal and then drink 8 margaritas that night. Your body composition and body weight will thank you.
With that being said, Bachelorette weekends are about having a blast with your friends, and getting rid of some of that stress before the big day! Make sure you are having fun, but do yourself and your body a favor by keep these tips in the back of your mind to make obtain all your fitness goals possible before you say “I Do”. | 2019-04-22T21:00:47 | http://bellsandbarbells.com/staying-track-bachelorette-bash/ |
WASHINGTON – Lawyers for a Guantanamo detainee asked the Supreme Court on Monday to consider blocking military tribunals for terror suspects, and overturn what they called an extreme ruling by high-court nominee John Roberts (search).
Roberts was on a three-judge federal appeals court panel that last month ruled against Salim Ahmed Hamdan, a Yemeni who once was Al Qaeda leader Usama bin Laden's (search) driver.
The Pentagon maintains it has the authority to hold military commissions, or tribunals, for terror suspects like Hamdan who were captured overseas and are now being held at Guantanamo Bay (search), Cuba.
A lower-court judge ruled against the government, but Roberts and two other judges on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit disagreed. That opinion was written by Judge A. Raymond Randolph, who was named to the court by the first President Bush.
The ruling was handed down shortly before Roberts was named to the Supreme Court, to replace retiring Justice Sandra Day O'Connor (search).
The appeals court said last month that the 1949 Geneva Conventions governing prisoners of war does not apply to the Al Qaeda network and its members.
Hamdan, who was captured in Afghanistan in November 2001, denies conspiring to engage in acts of terrorism and denies he was a member of Al Qaeda. | 2019-04-22T08:59:01 | https://www.foxnews.com/story/gitmo-inmate-wants-roberts-ruling-reversed |

The Unibet Story - Moving up in limits!
I proudly present to you guys, my new blog, since it is 2019 and I am planning some changes if it come's to poker. I have been thinking for quite some time now on how to start 2019, and in this first post I will present you guys the plan. If you guys (or girls) have any suggestions or improvements on the plan don't hesitate to post in this thread.
Let's start off with how 2018 went. Pokerwise, it went great. I've made a profit of around 4k last year, but I never really worked on building a bankroll. I cashed out many times because I was/am planning on buying a new car, which has become a little bit easier moneywise now.
The main theme of the beginning of 2019 will be building a bankroll. I will do this by playing mainly MTT's. Since Unibet also offers monthly missions to earn cash and tournament tickets and you also have to play cashgame's and sit en go's/hexapro's for these missions, I will also include these gametype's in my bankroll scheme.
I will be starting with a bankroll of 200 euro's, and per gametype this will be the moving up/down-schedule.
At the beginning of each session I will check this chart to see what I can play. I will update the chart after each session.
I hope you guys had a fun time reading this first post, will keep you guys updated!

That was a rough evening. I was totally card dead, ran into almost everything and besides that I couldn't win my flips. Unfortunately that's also one of the things you need to deal with when you play poker. It can only go up from here (at least I hope ).
Off to bed for now, some more games coming in tomorrow!
Nice running updates. GL in the future.

Didn't post a schedule, but I played some tourneys this afternoon. The bad run of yesterday evening keeps going on this afternoon. I get it in really good, but get outflopped, -turned or -rivered everytime.

Unobstructed nasal breathing is the number-one key because a person’s quality of life is so dependent on it. This is paramount in having normal facial development, and so many health considerations require it that it is almost impossible to overemphasize its importance. Obstructions, for whatever reason, must be evaluated and eliminated. Without elimination of the obstruction, mouth breathing can result and will lead to many unnecessary problems, including poor facial and dental development. The primary causes of nasopharyngeal obstruction are allergic rhinitis, deviated septum, underdeveloped maxilla, and obstructive tonsils or adenoids.
As many as 3 out of 4 children have adverse oral myofunctional habits.
sucking habits, lip biting, and chewing on objects like pens, pencils, or even ice.
Eighty percent of children will need orthodontics at some point in their lives. AOTMJ's philosophy is to treat as early as patient cooperation can be established. As explained earlier, malocclusions needing correction are mainly the result of poor nutrition and poor oral myofunctional habits. Since there is abundant available information regarding nutrition, the purpose of this book and AOTMJ's treatment is to inform the parent about the effects of poor oral myofunctional habits and how, with proper guidance, they can be corrected so more ideal facial development occurs. The earlier these habits are corrected, the more ideal the result. This concept is well explained earlier in this book.
The upper jaw holds the key in many ways to facial beauty and proper function of the lower face and teeth. It should be wide and full to accommodate all fourteen normal teeth (excluding third molars) in proper alignment and provide proper lip support. When the patient is giving a full smile, he or she should not show an excessively gummy smile or expose dark triangles between the teeth and the cheeks. This result can be accomplished with slow maxillary expansion (SPE), as the cranial sutures, including the mid-palatal suture, remain viable throughout life.
The following case is a good example of the use of FFO to expand the maxilla to an ideal shape to create a handsome, movie star smile. This patient was 16 years old when treatment began. He had substantial crowding of his front teeth. His upper jaw was narrower than what is considered ideal. Traditional orthodontics typically would have recommended the removal of four first bicuspid teeth and then straightening of the remaining teeth with braces. The recommendation might also have been made to use maxillofacial surgery to achieve the desired result.
After treatment was completed, the patient’s smile was full and confident. This result would not have been possible without the expansion of the arch forms.
The lower jaw should be in balance with the upper jaw. The most common imbalance is retrusion of the lower jaw, created when a narrow upper jaw forces the lower jaw back, trapping it in a recessed position, resulting in undesirable overbite and overjet. This malocclusion can lead to TMJ dysfunctions, forward head posture, or even obstructive sleep apnea. With lower facial balance, teeth can be positioned ideally and facial harmony can be established.
The TMJ, or temporomandibular joint, is the joint on each side of the face in front of the ears. It is used for speaking and eating and is the most complex joint in the human body.
The TMJs become dysfunctional when they become strained because the positions of the teeth are forcing the lower jaw out of alignment and into a pathologic position. The TMJs are the cornerstone of a proper bite and must be corrected if dysfunctional. If not, a myriad of symptoms, such as headaches, facial pain, clicking jaw joints, and problems with the eyes and ears, will appear and worsen over time. To establish a healthy balance for the chewing system, function of the TMJ must be taken into consideration and corrected if dysfunctional.
Proper head posture is very important concerning a person’s neck and back health. Teeth and jaw positions profoundly influence head posture. If proper balance is achieved with the first six keys above, then head posture can be positively influenced. As an additional benefit, further care from a neck and back doctor or therapist also can be more effective.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a serious medical problem affecting as much as 20 percent of the population. It can lead to heart disease and even premature death due to strokes, heart attacks, or choking in the night. Recent studies have even shown a link to cancer. OSA is a restriction of airflow while a person is sleeping. This causes a person to stop breathing during an apnea event. The most common reason for OSA is when the lower jaw is recessed too far back. Another common contributor to this problem is a narrow upper jaw. By properly following the keys listed, the possibility of OSA can be reduced in severity or avoided altogether.
Facial asymmetries can develop because of a mismatch of the upper and lower jaws and dental malocclusions causing the lower jaw to shift to one side or the other. A narrow upper jaw is almost always the source of this type of asymmetry. A correction should be made early in life or complications such as a TMJ dysfunction may occur. The chapter on this important key shows how easy it is to misdiagnose this problem, which can result in unnecessary surgeries used to correct an asymmetry. Early correction of asymmetries is highly recommended.
Crowding or spacing of front teeth is the most obvious that an untrained eye can easily see. However, for the trained orthodontist or dentist, problems that are less obvious also must be addressed. These can be things like crossbites, overbites, and underbites. Decades ago, Dr. Larry Andrew’s “6 Keys to Normal Occlusion” established a guideline for dental specialists to use regarding this topic, assuming the full complement of twenty-eight teeth is maintained and that permanent teeth are not extracted during orthodontic treatment.
The Lauson System: Ten Keys to Facial Harmony was developed over the last thirty years in private practice. By following these goals, it is my belief that the healthiest, most beautiful, and stable results can be achieved while sparing the patient permanent teeth extractions and surgery. | 2019-04-21T12:57:48 | http://www.aotmj.com/treatment/straight-talk-about-crooked-teeth |
Peer networks play an important role in delivering financial services nowadays, bringing the element of social into traditionally corporate-dominated industries. Financial technology startups played a critical role in appropriating social communication and connectivity, building business models based purely on leveraging social connectivity. The element of “social” soaked into such segments as payments, lending, commerce, and even the insurance industry.
In payments, one of the early examples of a technology company that understood how to connect social with financial elements was Venmo with its feed of repayments of friends to one another for certain gatherings and other social activities. The idea of communicating one’s financial activities to the whole personal network would have seemed wild to the traditional sector – the privacy of finances is sacred. However, the bet was placed on a young, tech-savvy generation – millennials, who did appreciate the concept then and still do. Founded eight years ago, the mobile payment service owned by PayPal understood the role of socialization in one’s life and found a perfect balance between a superior solution and its social value.
Since Venmo, P2P payments segment has grown tremendously (Zelle, PayKey, Square Cash, and many more), although the social element wasn't particularly utilized in other ways rather than the ability to send funds to one another (with exception of Gane App and a few more, maybe, which allows to share offers aside from payments).
Tech startups in other segments have gone much further – their revenue-making engine is wholly dependent on peer networks in some FinTech segments. P2P lending (Zopa, RateSetter, Funding Circle, etc.), for example, leverages technology to connect individuals with savings who wish to put their funds to work, with potential borrowers. P2P lending does not entirely correspond with the title and initial concept (since it’s mostly institutional funds fueling the loans). Nonetheless, that does not cancel the fact that the segment emerged out of the financial value recognized in social connectivity.
P2P insurance is another case of a disruptive business model based entirely on leveraging the power of social networks (PeerCover, Friendsurance, Gather, Jointly, Lemonade, TongJuBao, etc.). Peer networks and hyperconnectivity might even be one of the most powerful transformative forces in the insurance industry, which has traditionally been very ‘corporate.’ In 2015 alone, InsurTech startups raised $2.5 billion in capital globally.
Russ Banham, a Pulitzer-nominated business journalist, described the concept well by saying that P2P companies are marrying this shared insurance concept with another risk transfer strategy: captive insurance companies owned by corporations. Captives are a way for their owners to internally fund the first layers of financial loss, as opposed to transferring these risks to an insurer. Above these layers, the companies buy excess insurance or reinsurance.
The retail industry has also been largely affected by the ‘socialization’ frenzy. Social media channels have become powerful gatekeepers in facilitating commerce. Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest – every massive channel has integrated a shopping capability, not mentioning the power of referrals. In fact, Facebook can be considered a mammoth of social commerce – the platform accounts for 50% of total social referrals and 64% of total social revenue. Pinterest is placed second as a social commerce player despite a relatively small user base – the platform is estimated to drive 16% of social revenue despite having an audience 6.5 times smaller than Twitter.
Not only does “social” have a tremendous impact on business models across industries, but it also plays an increasingly important role in driving insights about one’s personality. Peer networks, likes and participation in groups, represent a source of knowledge on one’s hallmarks, interests, potential purchasing behavior – which technology startups are now able to translate into creditworthiness assessment (use of alternative data in risk assessment, social element in the concept of unified identity).
Social media channels went a long way since their inception – turning from news feeds and chats into all-in-one platforms, tightly gripping onto users’ everyday activities. Multipurpose channels eliminate the need for five different apps when they are able to perform all five functions in one place. Essentially, the like of Messenger, WhatsApp, Twitter, WeChat and others are eliminating the need for using any other app, creating a streamlined wholesome experience within one platform. And financial institutions should see it an opportunity to become a part of the deal given an increasing importance of those channels in users’ everyday life. | 2019-04-19T16:42:01 | https://gomedici.com/the-socialization-of-financial-services/ |

At Trinity Park we believe it is vital that God is worshipped in spirit and truth around the world. Though our general mission is to make disciples of Jesus Christ in all nations, the background of our pastor and the unique diversity of our community have encouraged us to primarily focus on India and China. We are already partnering with expatriate and indigenous church planters and pastors in South India and in Southwest China both financially and prayerfully.
We are also actively seeking to form a third global partnership either in the Caribbean or in Central America.
In the near future, our hope is to begin sending short term mission teams that represent a cross-section of our church, including our children, to serve alongside our international partners. | 2019-04-20T02:52:51 | https://trinityparkchurch.org/global-mission/ |
The Mother’s Day in Indonesia was born out of the movement of the Indonesian people. In the national movement for the independence, the woman roles in Indonesia became an inseparable part to the long struggle of the nation in order to its gain independence. Woman involvement is proven by the First Woman Congress which was on 22 December 1928 in Yogyakarta corroborating the spirit and determination to support Indonesia independence.
Indonesia Open University or Universitas Terbuka organized the ceremony for commemorating the 90th Mother’s Day at Universitas Terbuka Convention Center (UTCC), Friday (21/12/2018). The main subject was on "Women and Men Jointly Building the Family Resilience for the People Prosperity". In this opportunity, the ceremony was attended by UT President, Prof. Ojat Darojat M.Bus, Ph.D., as the master of the ceremony, as well as the senior officials, officers, and employees of the UT Headquarter.
UT President appreciated the mothers’ roles and dedication in family who can create strong and quality personality. Mothers are always the most important figure for any individual person in his or her personal life, family, society, people and nation. Mother is the first person who can instill the values and norms that serve as the personal foundation for anyone. Without undermining the father’s roles, mother becomes the important figure for one’s success and accomplishment. Therefore, UT President advised us to always respect and admire our mother since the heaven is beneath her sole or surga ada di telapak kaki ibu. | 2019-04-22T14:09:04 | https://www.ut.ac.id/en/news/2018/12/commemorating-90th-mother%E2%80%99s-day-ut-president-praised-mother%E2%80%99s-roles-family |

In the Sector-48 car snatching incident, the Chandigarh police on Monday traced the vehicle, and have also identified persons involved in the robbery.
During investigation, it was learnt that owing to some money dispute with complainant Parvinder Pal Singh Midda, the prime suspect, Mintu, a Patiala jail inmate, had asked his accomplices, Manjot Singh and Germanjeet Singh, to rob Mahindra XUV 500.
Police said accused Manjot Singh, resident of SAS Nagar, and Germanjeet Singh, resident of Amritsar, Punjab, would be arrested soon, and to further probe the case, the production warrant of Mintu, lodged in the Patiala jail, would also be procured.
Confirming that Mintu is the mastermind behind the robbery, police said his accomplices had executed the plan. The robbed car was traced near Chandigarh, whereas during the investigation, it was also learnt that the accused had taken the XUV to Ludhiana.
Navdeep Brar, assistant superintendent of police, south, said, "The accused have been identified, and police teams have been sent to different suspected areas to nab the accused. The traced car will be taken into custody soon."
On Friday afternoon, a city-based financer had alleged a group of unidentified miscreants robbed his car at gun point from his residence in Sector 48, leaving him and his housekeeper injured. He had also claimed that he had lent around Rs 10-15 lakh to a SAS Nagar-based resident, Manish Tandon alias Monty, who was recently arrested for betting during the Indian Premier League.
The complainant had also stated to police that since he was asking Monty to return his money, and had complained to police about his involvement in betting, Monty had sent his men to threaten him. | 2019-04-21T04:44:22 | https://www.hindustantimes.com/chandigarh/sector-48-car-snatching-jail-inmate-mastermind-behind-robbery-incident-claim-police/story-quyYDCxDNCYOoCkqPQinlI.html |

As a web designer, I think the whole blogging phenomenon is pretty interesting. I also find it rather intriguing as a sometime-writer.
Why blog? There are many possible reasons to start a blog. It’s a way to self-publish for one, with basically no one to answer to but whoever your readers happen to be. This applies to professional writers and the inexperienced alike. It’s true of a lot of the web in general, and you get the good with the bad.
Promotion is another reason to blog. Weblogs can promote businesses, books, political campaigns…the list goes on. A lot of websites are adding blogs because it is the “thing to do” these days, and that can often be a mistake (see my comments below about keeping an audience).
Some blogs may seem pointless to anyone other than the author, but even then the person posting gets—hopefully—some satisfaction from the writing of it.
In general, people just have something to say, and they want others to read it.
Who’s reading? To get read by many people from the start, a blogger has to be associated with a known entity (for example, the many NY Times bloggers—check out “The Pour,” a wine blog). Otherwise, you must have a theme or writing style that will draw an audience, keep it interesting, and keep it coming! So many potentially great blogs die when the blogger stops posting regularly.
There is no theme for this blog as a whole. That pretty much destroys my chances of building a loyal readership other than friends and family, but I’m ok with that. Perhaps a theme will come through as I go on (and on and on), but for now I’ll likely be all over the place. If I really wanted to get read, I’d need some sort of gimmick.
Those are my thoughts for now on blogs! I wish all of you serious bloggers out there much luck. | 2019-04-24T10:21:55 | https://www.ameliewalkeryung.com/blogging/ |
This flatbread is like pizza but also not like pizza. Ha! I’m a superfan of sage and brown butter and if you have never tried either of these magical gifts then you should start NOW! Add some beautiful freshly sliced Yore™ tomatoes and creamy mascarpone and you’re set.
1 Preheat oven to 400° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
2 In a small pan melt butter and heat until butter starts to smell nutty and fragrant and just starts to turn light golden brown, about 2 – 3 minutes. Immediately take the pan off the heat, stir in chopped sage and lemon juice. Set aside and let cool down slightly.
3 In a medium bowl, mix together mascarpone, Parmesan, salt and pepper. Place flatbread on prepared baking sheet and spread the mascarpone mixture evenly on top. Arrange sliced Yore tomatoes over the mascarpone. Spread and drizzle the sage brown butter over top. Season tomatoes lightly with salt.
4 Bake until mascarpone has heated through, puffed slightly and turned light golden at the edges, about 12 – 15 minutes. Let rest a minute or two before serving. | 2019-04-19T20:23:32 | https://memorymorsels.org/yore-tomatoes-with-mascarpone-flatbread/ |

Last night’s Comedy Central Roast of Donald Trump had its highs (Snoop Dogg) and its lows (The Situation). The Jersey Shore star got in trouble early when a joke about fellow roaster Whitney Cummings received less laughs than Cummings’ pity clap to break the silence. (Never rely on a grenade joke, Sitch, if you think there’s a chance you might bomb.) From there, it got worse, with plenty of shots of the audience cringing (my favorite being Ice-T after the Situation said it’s okay that Trump keeps firing people because he’s completely let himself go anyway). The crowd booed loudest, however, when the Situation started a joke about Trump’s hot wife. “The best part is, she married you for love … Yep, she loves money.” Roast vet Jeffrey Ross had to jump up, tell the audience to let the Situation do his thing, and bare his own belly. Watch the excruciating and definitely NSFW video below. | 2019-04-23T16:54:44 | https://ew.com/article/2011/03/16/donald-trump-roast-situation-snoop-dogg/ |

The US imported much more timber in July. There was a 21% increase in imports from June to July. The largest increase came from an influx of lumber from Canada, where a large portion of US imports come from. The US imported 56% more lumber from Chile, while New Zealand supply fell behind Chile’s, falling 13% from June to July. There were also increases in softwood moulding imports from South and Central America.
Imports from New Zealand increased by 12%, a relatively modest increase when compared to the increase in supply from the major suppliers to the US. China, which usually supplies a similar volume to the US to New Zealand’s supply, increased their supply by 33%. The US Construction Materials Cost Index, produced by Crow’s Market Reports in the US, tracks lumber prices in the Southern and Western regions of the US. Both indices remained flat this month after recent increases. These indices are good indicators of growth in the housing market in the US and reflect demand in the US for timber. | 2019-04-24T15:07:18 | http://forestindustries.eu/content/us-lumber-imports-rise |

Every gamer is interested in the fact how slot machines work and what the principle of their functioning is. Every one of us at least once asked this question – how slot machines work, how to play slots, how they payout, how they can be cheated, etc. It is possible to explain, indeed, how slot machines work in quite plain words.
Traditionally, casinos resort to slot machines installation in the crowded places as the particular diversion for the casual gamblers. It is considered to be the immensely successful idea. Slots have become very popular nowadays, though they do not require some particular gambling knowledge and skills.
Slot types, alongside with the technology of their functioning has been changing with the decades. However, the slots rules remain the same, the same with how slot machine works.
Thus, the mechanical slot machine designs have almost been replaced by the innovative computer controlled machines, like video slot machines, etc., for instance. Anyway, the game is still the same, indeed.
Traditionally, the gamer has to pull the handle or push the button in the latest slot machines models in order to make the slot reels that usually have particular symbols depicted on them, the aim of which is to indicate the winning combination, spin. Thus, losing or winning may be indicated by the images matched and lined up on the reels with the particular pay lines. Traditionally, the amount of winning – slot machine payout –is dependable on the particular symbols that are matched.
It is interesting to know that the slot machines mechanisms work on the basis of the elaborate levels and gears configurations. The core element is considered to be the metal shaft that is designed for support of the reels. The shaft is known to be connected to the mechanism of the handle that is designed to make things move. The braking system makes the spinning reels stop; meanwhile the sensors transmit the reels position to the payout slots system. Then the coin detector registers initially that the coin was inserted into the slots and thus unlocks the brake in such a way that handle is able to move.
It is said that there is an array of the ways how to arrange the elements, that is why the slot manufacturers have been trying the dozens of ways how to design slot machines the best way. However, the major slots design remain the key elements: reels that are mounted on the basic shaft. | 2019-04-20T16:11:53 | https://casinoslotmachines24.com/how-slot-machines-work.htm |
What if you could make money while doing absolutely nothing? No, I’m not talking about becoming a Kardashian; I’m talking about passive income. Passive income streams allow you to make money even when you are not actively working. Getting richer while you sleep sounds pretty sweet, right?
Todd had a bit of rough night, but hey, at least he’s still making money with passive income!
Over the years our society has been conditioned to believe that only one source of income is needed, which comes from a “9-5” day job, but nowadays that might not be enough. Prices are rising and buying power is decreasing, so while that day job might have been enough back in the day to buy a house and live the American dream, unfortunately that might not be the same case in current times.
The problem with just working that 9-5 job (which is almost never actually 9-5) is that you’re only making money while you’re actively working that job, and even worse, you’re not even paid for extra time you work if you’re salaried. There are only so many hours in the day, so earning potential is limited from that alone. A lot of people choose to get a second job to increase their income, but again they are trading their time for money and probably hate their life due to working all the time. With passive income you are able to increase your income without physically being at work or trading your time.
I saw a statistic the other day that said the average millionaire has seven sources of income, which makes a lot of sense when you think about it. Not too many people make over a million dollars per year from a job, but there are A LOT of millionaires out there and I can confidently say most of them haven’t just been throwing money in the bank to reach that milestone. They realized they could make substantially more by getting a little creative and thinking outside of the norm.
Passive income is also great because it can offer added security and peace of mind. If you only have one source of income and you lose it you’re going to be in some major trouble with all the bills pouring in. You’re leaving your financial well-being in the hands of a company that could fire you on a whim whenever they feel like it. That sounds pretty stressful to me, but if you have built other streams of income you’re less likely to have to move back in with your parents. I’m sure they love you, but I don’t think either you or your parents want that.
If you’re able to build enough successful streams of income you might even be able to quit that day job one day. Just make sure they’re consistent and able to replace that income you’ll be losing before you get any ideas of telling your boss to kiss your keister.
I know all of this sounds wonderful but be aware that there can be a lot of work that goes into building passive income streams before they are profitable and truly passive. Some forms are created through investing money where you make your money work for you. For example you could buy a stock and collect dividends from it. That’s about as easy as it gets. On the other hand though, some require a time investment up front before they become passive, for example creating a website.
So while creating passive income streams can take a little extra effort initially, it will be worth it in the long run to have that additional income and added peace of mind. I’ll be adding articles in the future about passive income and how to create it so be sure to be on the lookout for that. | 2019-04-20T07:19:31 | https://financebrofessor.com/2018/11/04/passive-income-the-true-path-to-wealth/ |

Ngong Forest Sanctuary is one of only very few forests in the world that exists within a city. Only 6 kilometers from Nairobi's central business district, the forest is a precious resource for Kenya's capital city. In an unusual and dynamic move on the part of the Kenyan Government, an area of 600 hectares of this urban forest has been entrusted to the management of a private charitable trust - the Ngong Forest Sanctuary Trust.
Ngong Forest Sanctuary walk is great for those interested in mammals, trees, wild flowers, birds or would like to just walk in the forest. The walk in the forest offers bird watching, plant identification, and animal life accompanied by a professional naturalist. Nairobi plays host to 605 different species of birds, which is more bird species within the boundaries of a capital city than any other in the world. 190 of them can be found in the Ngong Forest Sanctuary.
Some of the species include Grebes, Cormorants, Darters, Egrets, Herons, Hamerkop, Storks, Ibises, Goose, Ducks Vultures, Kites, Buzzards, Eagles, Plovers, Sandpipers, Doves, Pigeons, Turacos, Owls, Cuckoos, Swifts, Kingfishers, Bee-eaters, Mousebirds, Woodpeckers, etc. During your Ngong Forest Sanctuary walk, you may see over 35 species of mammals which include Bush Buck, Dik Dik, Duiker, Suni, Leopard, Hyena (spotted), Baboon, Vervet Monkey, Aardvark, Porcupine, Squirrel and Tree Hyrax.
Ngong Forest Sanctuary has 208 species of indigenous trees, plants and Amphibians such as Toads and frogs, reptiles such as Tortoise, Lizards and snakes which together create a stunning sanctuary in the heart of Nairobi.
Ngong Forest Sanctuary walk takes approximately 2 hours through the forest or around the dam that attracts large numbers of birds and even leopard has been spotted there. After the walk enjoy a sumptuous lunch at the Rangers Restaurant and return back to your hotel residence.
Ngonghills was gazetted back in 1985 and is located 25kms from Nairobi.it is within the kajiado county and managed under the kajiado eco system conservator.
The following are some of the activites that take place around ngonghills.
Ngong Forest Sanctuary Walk entry point is through our main gate next to the Commonwealth war graves, approximately 400 meters off ngong road. The walk can be arranged such that it ends at the Steve's Steak House in time for lunch.
Lunch at the Steve's Steak House averages between 1,200 Kenya Shillings and 2,000 Kenya Shillings. The best time for bird watching is in the morning, say 9.00am.
There are many bird species to observe among them the very beautiful but rare Narina trogon and the African Crowned Eagle. Also water birds next to the dam.
You can bring along bird guides, binoculars, cameras and may be some drinking water. Dressing may depend on the weather but generally light clothing and walking shoes are recommended.
The walks last 2 hours on average. We will allocate you a guide experienced in birding) and two armed rangers. | 2019-04-21T12:33:49 | http://kenya-and-beyond.com/index.php?id=99 |

Just outside the museum nestled along the Christel DeHann Family Terrace, The Sails are the place on the Canal Walk where families can enjoy free music, storytellers, hands-on family activities – including their Summer Under The Sails concert series. Our team enjoys events in this outdoor space because of it’s versatility. Whether ceremony, cocktail hour, seated dinner, or dancing outdoor – this space can accommodate it all. One of our favorite ways to enhance the space is to include colored lighting in the evening, really making the party come alive. Photos courtesy of Caitlin Sullivan Photography.
Yes, it’s July… but holiday parties really aren’t that far off! One of the most exciting places for holiday party entertainment downtown is Eiteljorg Museum’s Jinglerails exhibit. Imagine stepping into a wooden winter wonderland as you sip a cocktail and enjoy passed hors d’oeuvres. Jinglerails is like no other holiday event the city and perfect for children young and old alike. The exhibit is hosted in Clowes Sculpture Court and spans floor to ceiling with miniature models of famous landmarks from around the country and our own town of Indianapolis. The exhibit adds a ‘built-in’ holiday decor element during the winter months making it easy to bring a festive and celebratory spirit to the space. Photos courtesy of Eiteljorg Museum.
Eiteljorg Museum’s architecture is unlike anything else in the downtown area of the city. Broad, flat mesas, canyons and ancient pueblo structures are what make the Southwest uniquely beautiful. These are the inspiration to the Eiteljorg Museum’s exterior. Inside the Eiteljorg Museum, warm earth tones, stone and rich mahogany trim continue the Southwestern motif. We love the neutral palette inspired by nature’s very own architecture. Every time we step into the museum, it doesn’t feel like we are in Indianapolis anymore. | 2019-04-22T22:59:57 | http://www.kahnscatering.com/blog/2018/07/our-three-favorite-things-about-eiteljorg-museum/ |

Democratic State Senator Lena Taylor was cited for disorderly conduct following an incident in a Milwaukee bank Friday afternoon in which she used racist language against an African-American teller, multiple sources told News/Talk 1130 WISN.
Taylor, who is also African-American, called the teller a "house n****r" after that teller would not cash for Taylor an $831 check for which there were insufficient funds.
Milwaukee Police officers, who were coincidentally in the Wells Fargo Bank at 735 W. Wisconsin Ave. on an unrelated call, overheard Taylor berating the teller and intervened. A shift lieutenant arrived on the scene shortly thereafter and, after viewing the bank's security camera footage, issued Taylor a municipal citation for disorderly conduct.
When asked for comment on the incident, the Milwaukee Police Department referred News/Talk 1130 WISN to Taylor's office.
The citation is not a criminal violation but does carry a maximum fine of $500. Taylor has not responded to a request for comment, but her office confirmed the citation and indicated that she would make a statement on the incident Monday.
She never did, but her attorney, Vince Bobot (a former municipal judge), is trying to get the citation quashed and has requested a meeting with the Milwaukee City Attorney.
"I mean she did intimate to me that they're trying to accuse her of a racial slur. But I don't want to get into that right now. You know, it's highly unusual for it to go to the press like this," Bobot told CBS 58 News.
Notably, Bobot did not deny that Taylor used the phrase "house n****r." Neither did Taylor nor her staff after News/Talk 1130 WISN broke the story on Monday. Given that the use of that phrase by a state senator is very troubling, this silence is unusual if Taylor will now argue to the city attorney that she did not utter it. | 2019-04-19T04:50:22 | https://newstalk1130.iheart.com/featured/common-sense-central/content/2018-04-09-state-sen-lena-taylor-cited-for-disorderly-conduct/ |
