Johnelle Hunt is a business icon who mainly wanted to be a full-time wife and mom. It didn’t work out that way.
Johnelle Hunt wears clothes and jewelry from Barbara/Jean | Styling by Angela Alexander.
Johnelle Hunt is a true American icon. Born the daughter of a poultry farmer in Heber Springs in 1932 in the Great Depression, today she is worth $2.3 billion and has become one of the most successful businesswomen in American history.
But being a business tycoon was never part of her plan. All she ever wanted was to take care of her family and home, but Johnnie, her husband of 54 years, and the legendary founder of J. B. Hunt, one of the country’s largest trucking companies, had other ideas.
Left: Johnelle DeBusk at 16, about the age that she caught the eye of the young and dashing J. B. Hunt in Heber Springs.
Right: Johnelle, upper right, with the rest of the DeBusk family — her siblings Gloria, David and Dennis, and her parents Ollie and Johnie.
The couple met one evening when he was driving through Heber Springs and offered a ride to Johnelle and her friends — the Dirty Dozen, they called themselves. Johnelle’s friend rode up front with Johnnie, but Johnelle was so taken with the dashing young man that when he passed through town the next night she outran all her friends so that she could sit next to him. She bore the wrath of her friend, who didn’t speak to her for several days afterward, but she got her man.
Johnnie proposed to Johnelle on their way to her high school graduation with a small diamond ring he had bought with $80 borrowed from his aunt. Johnnie would later buy Johnelle a ring with a significantly larger diamond, something more befitting a multimillionaire’s wife, but to this day Johnelle treasures the simple ring with the tiny diamond, because she knows how hard Johnnie had to work to pay it off.
Johnelle also recounts seeing John F. Kennedy at a luncheon for the dedication of Greers Ferry Dam on Oct. 3, 1963, just weeks before his assassination. And when I compliment her on some beautiful Bedouin jewelry hanging on the wall in her stylish living room, she explains that it was a gift from a visiting Saudi prince after Johnelle saved the day by lending his wife a dress for a wedding they were suddenly invited to.
Such remarkable stories are just part and parcel of Johnelle’s more-incredible-than-fiction life. Yet, despite her great fortune, she is still the most down-to-earth, kind-hearted Southern woman you could ever hope to meet, not to mention one of the friendliest. When we arrive at her Rogers home for our interview and photo shoot, she immediately apologizes for making us drive all the way to her from Little Rock. She had hoped to save us the journey by coming to us, but her grueling schedule wouldn’t allow it.

At 84, Johnelle is still the beating heart of the Hunt empire. As we choose which clothes to photograph her in, her cellphone dings constantly with text messages. “Sorry about that,” she says. “We are working on a mining operation in Honduras, so people need me to make decisions.” When I speak with Johnelle just a few weeks later, she has already sold that company.
Her husband died on Dec. 7, 2006, from injuries sustained in a fall six days earlier. To say that Johnelle was bereft would be quite an understatement. She had lost her lifelong partner and best friend. But she forced herself to carry on building Johnnie’s dream, and it is what drives her to keep going every day.

Johnelle recounts how she really wanted to be a full-time mother and homemaker, but Johnnie must have seen her business potential and her magical way with people.

However, on arrival to Rogers Johnelle realized that the truckloads of company paperwork that had been moved from Stuttgart were in disarray and wouldn’t make sense to the new team, so she decided to go in for just a few weeks to get everything organized and orient the new employees. That was 42 years ago, and she has been working full time ever since.

There's more to copywriting than being able to turn your hand to writing a good story. You might have a sharp journalistic style of writing, or you're a killer content writer; it's not the same as copywriting.
Writing that sells is writing that feeds.
To sell your business, product, brand, or service, the words must come together in a way that makes people open their minds to what you’re offering and, eventually, their wallets to buy. This is where good copywriting comes to play.
Not to be confused with translation, transcreation is the method of taking a piece of copy and adapting the style, tone, and concept to a localised language.
I offer this service for copywriting translated from Spanish to English for businesses who sell to an English-speaking market.
The point is, if you sell to English-speaking countries, I can transform your text to persuasive copy for your target audience. That's transcreation.
I'm a British born English speaker, certified in TESOL (teaching English as a foreign language) and can write in localised language. Having lived in the USA briefly and worked for multinational companies, I also write in American English.
Whether you want the 'u' out of 'colour' (British English) or the 'z' in 'organized' (American English), I provide a copywriting and transcreation service to make sure your words sell your business and customers buy, buy, buy.

The four Companies in Dublin along with friends, parents and Past Members had a very different day on Sunday, 21 October. The Companies agreed that the event should be changed from a “Church Parade” to a fun event which the young people will remember for years to come as a great way to celebrate the inspiration of William Smith when he founded The Boys’ Brigade 135 years ago.
After a picnic lunch in the grounds of Clontarf Parish Church (HQ of the 12th Dublin), there were lots of fun events for Anchors, Juniors and Company/Seniors. They were joined for a service of thanksgiving for the Founder led by our National Chaplain, Mark Acheson accompanied by music by Ichtus. | 2019-04-23T18:22:05 | https://boys-brigade.org.uk/bb-gazette/founders-celebratory-event/ |

Well, since the flurry of fan photos seems to be dying out... I decided to go hunting for some details about Ouarzazate, Morocco, where filming has moved.
Jan.did you say a change of music might be in order? A little 'Clash' perhaps? I love the Great Satchmo, but we can always put him back on again after a day or two, right?
Yes!!!! Yes!! The Clash! Bring.it.on.
"By order of the . . ." lord, I'm losing my memory.
I love the sunset picture. Oh, to be there with him sharing that view.
Yes ! The Clash please! Question is, can I type coherently while I'm flinging myself all round the room to the music? Just one of my all time favourites!
or just being the one to supply him with extra blankets.... when it gets cold at night.

I bet we could think of lots of ways to warm him up on a cold night.
Movie director Ridley Scott is being guarded by hundreds of soldiers on location in Morocco - after receiving death threats from Islamic extremists upset about his new movie. The 'terrorists' are offended by battle scenes in Scott's new movie about the Crusades, Kingdom Of Heaven, particularly those between Christian King Richard The Lionheart and Muslim Saracen soldiers. A crew member reveals, "There is concern, but everyone is getting on with the job in hand." King Mohammed of Morocco has ordered increased security for the Gladiator director and the cast which includes Liam Neeson, Kiera Chaplin and Jeremy Irons."
Given the latest developments in the Middle East I am afraid there may well be a real basis for this report.
BTW - how can anyone write any sort of report about this movie without mentioning the actor playing the main role?
Edit: Woo Hoo! My 400th post!
Sadly it may well be true. I just read it on OBM from a story in the San Francisco Chronicle. Jas also has links to The Guardian, The Mirror and La Prensa (Spanish) which are all carrying the same story. It's rather worrying really, because it's all very well guarding them now, but the film still has to be completed and released, and then viewed by the public. If fundamentalists are taking offence now, who's to say they won't still take offence when it's finished.
All world religions preach peace and love and yet throughout history, more people have died in the name of religion than anything else. Why can't we all just live together? I don't understand the human race at all.
Stay safe everyone working on KOH!
This certainly puts an interesting twist on things, doesn’t it. Poor Ridley, directing a movie with threats hanging over his head! It’s a sad state of things in the world as it exists now. I just pray it’s only that – threats. I hope that our sweet Orlando is being looked after properly, that everyone stays safe & sound and that they concentrate on getting the filming over with so they can all GO HOME!
So packing up and moving the filming location elsewhere would be expensive, but so are funerals. I vote we all go over and help them pack. They can finish filming on a sound stage. I hate that this has happened to put a cloud over filming.
I do have a question, though. Islamic extremists don't usually target one person, nor do they give warning. Why do you suppose threats were made at all and why only against the director? That doesn't track with other terrorist type things that have happened lately, does it? This aspect gives me some hope that the threats are not as, well, threatening.
Let us all keep a good thought for the entire cast and crew and if you pray, get busy!
I'm not believing this 'threat', to be honest. Ridley Scott has filmed in Morocco before and never had a problem, and terrorists usually go for bigger scale attacks. Several newspapers can give the same news because they get them from the same News Agency, but that doesn't mean it's true.I don't know. I just don't find it reliable, and I hope it's not.
Guys, don't think of me as someone who sees conspiracies everywhere or anything, please, but I honestly think it might be something that originated with a marketing person somewhere in the offices of 20th Century Fox.
If you remember, the first press release seemed to imply that the movie was going to be sympathetic to Muslims, now this rumor is supposed to imply that it ISN'T sympathetic to Muslims. I think it's just to keep the movie in the news, drum up some interest about it and make sure nobody decides whether TO see it or NOT to see it based on how it portrays Muslims, which is obviously a very polarizing political issue.
I don't think there` is any kind of threat to Ridley Scott.
I'm not buying that story. They didn't even get the cast right which means it's not an official release from anyone involved in the movie.
When something official is released from Fox, the country of Morocco, or Ridley Scott surfaces.then I'll believe it. I think it's just trying to drum up buzz about the movie. The Passion of the Christ had buzz from day one of shooting and look at it now. I think that a lot of studios might try to create conflict for their films to drum up business. It's a dirty tatic.but then again Hollywood is a dirty business.
I do hope the cast and crew are safe though. You never know what could happen when you travel and work in another country.
I agree with Dair and Clarissa: take that report with a grain of salt. Going off the cast list alone (Liam and Kiera?), it doesn't look legit. It's either the studio drumming up buzz or some idiot with too much time on his/her hands trying to raise a ruckus. I'm sure precautions are being taken (heck, even Sid has his own bodyguard!), so don't worry too much over our man.
Let's just all keep a good thought.
Orlando needed a couple of security people in Spain (and this was before the terrorist bombings), so it's absolutely no surprise that they had planned security in Morocco. I truly believe that if they were filming in my little (well, 40,000 population!) town, they'd have security. It's a fact of life these days pretty much worldwide.
I would hate to think that Fox had any hand in this 'news', as it's just the kind of inflammatory story that the film does NOT need publicized (it's a predominantly Islamic country, hence Islamic extremists must be in the vicinity with the intent to disrupt or kill members of the cast/crew). The fact that they have most of the cast listing botched *SPOILER* (including Liam Neeson, whose character bit the big one, so his filming was completed in Spain) is a clue. All IMDb ever quotes is WENN, known for peddling tabloid news (actually digesting and regurgitating would be a more appropriate description).
I would be happy to go and help them pack.
I'm not saying it's a created scare, but it sure sounds familiar.
And I've read in several places that the script at least was conciliatory to the 3 major world religions.
That said security is still very important. There are crazies out there.
The makers of Troy did the wise and sensible thing and switched from Morrocco to Mexico to ensure the safety of the cast and crew. I, too, feel that the powers that be on this KOH film seem to care more about potential profits than cast and crew safety.
I can't help but wonder what has Orlando gotten himself into with this movie. My main hope is that this film will perform like Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ". That is, despite all the massive hysterical and irrational and nasty controversy that surrounded that film it still managed to blow the box-office sky high and become a hugely popular and financial success.
One thing I think is important to remember about this film...it's not necessarily ABOUT the crusades per say, not like The Passion is about the crucifiction of Christ. The film is about a man;a blacksmith who joins the crusades reluctantly, and gets mixed up in all the politics of it. It's a love story and the story of a man's unlikely rise from commoner to a place where he could be king of Jerusalem. Yes, there are battle scenes. I think Islamic terrorists just need any old excuse they can get to threaten people and wreak havoc, and this just happens to a high enough profile opportunity to draw attention to themselves.
After thinking about it alot, I am rather glad that Sir Ridley has the 'nads to film in Morocco. I think the show of support from the Moroccan government in lending their soldiers for extra protection is great. I for one am sick of the idea that threats from these heartless fanatics can frighten people away. They are in a very isolated area, as Jan was explaining to me last night and it's not as thought they would have easy access to the crew or production staff. I hope they just film it, and get out.... thumbing their collective noses at the terrorists.
Just to add my thoughts to this I did want to point out that Morocco is, generally, a very safe place for Europeans/Americans to visit. My other half has spent time out there and the people are very welcoming and, at no time in the many times he has visited has he felt unsafe.... and that includes in Ouarzazate itself. He has been astounded by the number of times he has been welcomed into people's homes... even those who speak dialects so cannot communicate with Europeans properly. Last time he went (February) he really was wondering if he and his friends would meet any hostility but there was absolutely nothing... even in the bigger cities like Marrakech. There are many Europeans who live out there and would not hesitate to remain there with their families.
Now I'm not naive enough to doubt that there are some more extreme factions active within the country, and the recent Madrid bombing has been linked to Moroccans, but I just wanted to say I hope people don't believe Ridley Scott has made an unsafe decision to go ahead and film there. I, too, am a little sceptical about these reports.
Unfortunately this is the world we live in nowadays. Probably my trips into London once or twice a week are more dangerous than the middle of the desert in Morocco! Perhaps I should go and live out there instead!
I don't know if I should post this here, if it's not the right place please remove it.
Jas sent the article to me - it's of the gossip variety, but there are two lovely pics of Orlando on set in Morocco. | 2019-04-25T01:02:18 | http://www.ka-bloom.org/forum/index.php?/topic/5383-filming-in-morocco/&page=3 |

One of the most commonly taught and well-known massage techniques, Swedish massage is a vigorous system of treatment designed to energize the body by stimulating circulation. Five basic strokes, all flowing toward the heart, are used to manipulate the soft tissues of the body. The disrobed client is covered by a sheet, with only the area being worked on exposed. Therapists use a combination of kneading, rolling, vibrational, percussive, and tapping movements, with the application of oil, to reduce friction on the skin. The many benefits of Swedish massage may include generalized relaxation, dissolution of scar tissue adhesions, and improved circulation, which may speed healing and reduce swelling from injury manipulation.
and maintains pain, the goal is to help relieve the pain and dysfunction by understanding and alleviating the underlying cause. Neuromuscular therapy can help individuals who experience distortion and biomechanical dysfunction, which is often a symptom of a deeper problem. It is also used to locate and release spasms and hypercontraction in the tissue, eliminate trigger points that cause referred pain, rebuild the strength of injured tissues, assist venous and lymphatic flow, and restore postural alignment, proper biomechanics, and flexibility to the tissues.
Performed by a trained perinatal specialist, many methods of massage and somatic therapies are both effective and safe prenatally and during labor and postpartum periods of womens pregnancies. Prenatally, specific techniques can reduce pregnancy discomforts and concerns and enhance the physiological and emotional well-being of both mother and fetus. Skilled, appropriate touch facilitates labor, shortening labor times and easing pain and anxiety. In the postpartum period, specialized techniques rebalance structure, physiology, and emotions of the new mother and may help her to bond with and care for her infant. Specialized, advanced training in the anatomy, physiology, complications, precautions, and contraindications is highly recommended, and many practitioners require referrals from physicians prior to therapy.

CBSE Patrachar in Krishna Nagar works as a well-defined system through a Vidyalaya (center) for those students who have failed their board exams or have had to drop out midway. It gives such students a chance to complete their education and take a leap forward. No matter where a student is right now, he/she can study through this initiative as it offers a flexible and student friendly approach. Let us take a look at the process of admission, classes offered and how the whole system actually works in the best interest of the students.
CBSE Patrachar in Krishna Nagar gives students from all backgrounds a second opportunity to complete their board examinations. If a student has failed, was unable to clear the exam or could not make it to class 10th and 12th, he/she can easily take admission and resume their studies. The admission process for both the classes is very simple and follows a certain eligibility criterion.
• Admission to class 10th: Students seeking admission in class 10th must be above 14 years of age. The students should have either passed or failed in class 9th or failed in class 10th. Those who have completed class VII with a gap of one year after completion are also eligible for admission. The admission process is open for students from government recognized school and those who have studied privately.
• Admission to class 12th: For admission in class 12th the criterion is the same with the student having passed or failed class 11th. Those who have completed class 10th and taken a gap year can also appear for the admission. Rest of the edibility criteria remains the same.
Students who fit this eligibility criterion can collect information from respective CBSE Patrachar Vidyalaya. The Patrachar Vidyalaya works as a center where all the admission related queries are answered, students are guided about their future and classes take place for the students of this noble initiative. Applicants can also get the admission forms from these centers along with list of required documents.
Patrachar Vidyalaya Krishna Nagar is one such center students can connect with. Here, students will be guided through all the stages of admission and also be assisted towards private education. The initiative is also available for students who are distanced and cannot take admission regularly or in any other format. Private admission is provided for both class X and class XII with all needful resources provided to students for their studies.
• Regular classes: These are available for all the students who reside in Krishna Nagar and can easily attend the Patrachar classes on a daily schedule. Here, teachers take up different subjects and teach in line with the syllabus given by CBSE.
• Evening classes: These classes are for students who cannot appear during the day due to any personal or professional reason. Students who are restricted by any factor can easily switch to the evening classes where the syllabus is taught in the same manner as day classes.
• Weekend classes: The best part about these classes is that they are flexible and suit every kind of student. Those who are working and have other essential commitments can easily take up these weekend classes. During the week one can concentrate on their work and during the weekends get the right coaching to appear in and clear the secondary and senior secondary examinations. No matter at what stage in life a student plans to take up admission, this flexibility works in line with their daily routine as they will not miss out on their education any further.
For all admission related information and formalities students can acquire Patrachar Vidyalaya Admission form 10th and 12th class . The process is very simple and kept in the best interest of the students.
This comes in as a ray of hope for students who had could not complete such important stages of their education. Teachers at the Patrachar Vidyalaya in Krishna Nagar put in their best effort to help each and every child in doing well and clearing the exams. If a student who has been unable to clear any board exam joins the program, teachers make sure he/she is able to clear the exam second time around. Rather than taking a year off or never getting back to studies, those who have witnessed failure can actually make the most of this imitative. They can appear the very next year and complete their exam or do the same at a later stage in life. Through the guidance and constant support of the teachers, students can complete their education and even plan further studies. All the courses are recognized by CBSE and the result is as per the standard declaration. Thus, students have a chance to re work on their failures.
A Patrachar Vidyalaya in Krishna Nagar is a great step forward and has been guiding thousands of students every year. Such an initiative taken by the Government provides equal opportunity to all the students and helps them with their education. Education scenario in India is often debated and people highlight the negatives. But with such a flexible, approachable and structured system of education, more of the population will be able to get the required assistance and complete essential levels of secondary and senior secondary education. Education is a must for a bright future and more opportunities in life. Those who have missed out or could not perform are given another possibility here and must make the most of it. The system is designed to attract more students so that they can achieve the needful and don’t let anything overpower education.

Running your own self managed superfund (SMSF) is an alternative to putting your money in a retail or industry fund. In fact, today SMSFs are the largest and fastest growing super segment in Australia, so why take the plunge into it? There are some key advantages such as greater control over your super, more flexibility and investment choice. With SMSF, you decide what you want to manage and what you don’t. For example, you can pull your super with family or other members of the fund or you can borrow to buy a property with your super. However, starting an SMSF can feel like learning to drive. It can be empowering and exciting, but you need to understand the rules and the risks before you start.
One of the main concerns people have about self managed superfund is if they can access they super whenever they want. While there are some special circumstances that allow a trustee to get some or all of their money earlier, as a general rule, a trustee cannot withdraw money from their super until what is called as their preservation age.
Preservation age is between 55 and 60 and depends on when you were born.
But reaching your preservation age is just one of the requirements for withdrawing money from your self managed superfund. If you are still working between your preservation age and 60, you can only take what is called a non-commutable income stream, which is a pension that will supplement your income. If you stop working between your preservation age and 60, then you may be illegible to get unlimited access to your SMSF, but you will be required to pass a genuine retirement test. This includes the obligation of having terminated your employment and have no intention of going back to work for more than 10 hours a week.
Once you turn 60, then things will get a lot simpler. All the benefits of your fund will be tax-free, whether you decide to take them as pension or a lump sum. However, you will have to qualify for access by ceasing gainful employment. This can be as simple as changing jobs, for example, if you are a director of a company, resigning as an employee.
Turning 65 means that you can access your SMSF at any time regardless if you are working or not. You can decide to take all or part of your super as pension or lump sum, or a combination of both. In order to access your super you will have to contact your SMSF expert and fill out the required documents. | 2019-04-20T23:01:52 | http://www.journalyst.com.au/accessing-self-managed-superfund/ |

Imagine that you are living in Utopia and have no enemies. (Imagine all the people living life in peace...) Sounds tempting, does not it? However, if you had happened to meet the French philosopher, mathematician, and physicist Jean le Rond d'Alembert, he would have convinced you that only mediocrity had no enemies. Now you have two ways: to admit that you are nothing more than mediocrity and start crying or just accept the idea of you having enemies. If you cannot recall them, it does not mean that they do not exist. It means that they are wearing a disguise. Just look around. We are surrounded by our enemies. They are everywhere. For example, in your college. You are living in peace, grinding away at your books, writing essays (they can be written at greatpaper.co.uk) and all this time they hate you. They are working on their evil plans and you do not even suspect. However, forewarned is forearmed, so now you can set up a strategy to fight with them. Let us look at the most effective ways to deal with your college enemies.
First of all, you can solve the problem radically and kill them all. Quentin the Great says that violence is a form of cinematic entertainment, but if you do it, all bets are off. It is so much better when you play with them (no, we do not mean tortures).
Secondly, you can memorize alchemy and dark arts to cast a perfect spell, which can also lead to tragic after-effects. You can also use poisonous candles, death caps, Borgia’s wine, arsenic, mercury or cicuta (but you also can get poisoned in the process, because fate adores joking). If you doubt it, ask Bonaparte, Socrates and Jeanne d'Albret and they will tell you that it would be better not to risk this way.
Thirdly, you can pretend that your enemy does not exist, or he is wearing an Invisibility Cloak, or he is everywhere and nowhere simultaneously like an electron. Sometimes it works, but there is a slight threat to become a paranoid. Just reread “Harry Potter” and you will find out that there are plenty of reasons to make friends with paranoia. Just imagine when you are alone at home, actually you are not alone. Even now someone invisible (remember that Big Brother really exists) may be standing behind your chair and watching you.
If you want to be gentle because you were reading Dumas greedily all your childhood, you should challenge your enemy to a duel. For sure, you are just a brilliantly good swordsman and incomparably good shooter. If not, just offer him a dance duel. Anyway, he will lose courage and withdraw. If not, be afraid of him. He is a dangerous guy, so hit the road and save your pride. But never give up and search for more ways here.
Also, you can buy your enemy a one-way ticket to the paradise (living easy, loving free), a seasonal ticket to a one-way ride (no, we do not mean stabbing). Just buy all Lego constructors you can find in the store and offer him to build a stairway to heaven. If he refuses, just tell him: “Okay, do whatever you want but on no account should you build it.” Be sure that he will start immediately and you will not see him before the Last Judgment.
If you want to look like a fossil madman, you can use all these instructions. Otherwise, just realize that it is the XXI century and get disappointed. Just listen to Napoleon Bonaparte and never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake. Face all the ill-wishers with cool indifference and try to bury the hatchet. Once upon a time Oscar Wilde said that we must forgive our enemies because nothing annoys them so much. Just imagine all the joy you feel while watching their powerless physiognomy. Work with your enemy and make him a partner. You will get a great benefit, earn your brownie points and save one innocent soul from the hell. Maybe, they are envious because of your brilliant achievements or they are just misanthropes who hate the whole humanity. Anyway, it is very profitable to make them your allies. Keep your friends close, keep your enemies closer and then wait and see. Still in doubt? You never know what you can do until you try.
Perhaps, they are right and there is something wrong with you? Are you just denying the evidence? Maybe, there is a kernel in their criticism and you actually look like the Loch Ness Monster or behave like a pig? Stop and think. Where there is smoke, there is fire. In any situation, behave tactfully. Do not be rude, insolent or enraged. Even if you are not a big fan of etiquette, remember that acting this way, you are revealing yourself to be on the same level with your enemy. Destroying boundaries is marvelous, but not in this case.
Be always ready to cross your swords: a controversy may start at any time. Just be a good strategist and keep a card up your sleeve. You will gain the reputation of a dangerous player and others will avoid messing with you. If you are too lazy to get ready previously, just keep calm and improvise. You are killing. Even if you are not that good in a spontaneous debate, just close your eyes and think of fame, glory and applause. Smile to yourself and keep silence. That is enough to be killing. Now normal people think you are strange, but you are still killing.
Be sure that you are doing great things. That will encourage you and give you the second wind. Help your groupmates to shape their destinies. You can even be the founder of a small matrimonial agency. Certainly, you will be forced to get a license, but just do it.
One more way to conquer their regard is to have a laugh with them. Remember that laughter is a perfect weapon. It is easy to stop hating a person, if they make you laugh all the time. You can even make friends gradually. There is a thin line between love and hate, isn’t there? If it does not work, just reflect all the negative emotions they shed like a big crystal mirror.
So, to become invulnerable, control yourself like a Buddhist monk, tell jokes like a god and get off with a whole skin. You can also bite, chop and stick but are you really looking for problems? If not, just say goodbye to all your bloodthirsty plans, sigh deeply, square your shoulders. Ready? Go ahead! Just remember good old Winston Churchill’s words that if you have enemies, you've stood up for something, sometime in your life”. Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names!

With the beginning of the book of SHEMOS, "Exodus", Israel enters the world stage as a people. Pharaoh himself, their oppressor, recognizes them as "the PEOPLE of the Children of Israel, many and mighty." (Ex. 1:9). Their servitude in Egypt is in fulfillment of the promise given to their founding father, Abraham: "Surely KNOW that your seed will be strangers in a land that is not theirs and they will serve them and they will oppress them. And also the people that they will serve I will judge, and afterwards they will go forth with great wealth" (Gen. 15:13-14).
The Exodus of the People of Israel from Egypt is the pivotal event in the history of mankind, paradigm of all true freedom and liberation, the eternal proof that G-d is not only the Creator of the natural world but also directs and controls all aspects of human affairs with HASHGACHAH PRATIS - "providence in every detail" - for good.
For the sake of G-d's self-revelation to the world, it is not sufficient that He should be known privately to a select few. The climax of G-d's revelation is when "the earth will be full of the KNOWLEDGE of G-d like the waters cover the seas" (Isaiah 11:9). Even those who are turned away from G-d, even those who resist knowing Him, must be forced to admit -- even against their will -- that G-d is King of the whole world.
Thus when Moses first calls on Pharaoh in the name of G-d to release His People, "...and Pharaoh said, 'Who is HaShem that I should listen to His voice. I do not KNOW HaShem." (Ex. 5:2). But in the end Pharaoh himself was forced to send them away: "Go, serve HaShem as YOU said" (12:31); "And Egypt said, let me flee from Israel, for HaShem is fighting for them against Egypt" (14:25).
In Egypt the Children of Israel, G-d's emissaries, were in an upside-down world. "There is an evil that I have seen beneath the sun like a mistake that went forth from before the Ruler: folly is put in many high places while the wealthy [=Israel, Rashi] sit in the low place. I have seen slaves on horses while princes walk like slaves on the ground" (Koheles 10:5-7). Noah cursed the nations of Ham to be "a servant of servants to his brothers" (Gen. 10:25). But now Ham's second-born, MITZRAIM (Gen. 10:6) -- Egypt -- were lording it over the choicest of the line of Shem. It looked as though Pharaoh was the "first-born". G-d's revelation to the world depended upon showing that "My son, My first-born is Israel" (Ex. 4:22). Even the Egyptians saw this when G-d smote all their first-born while saving all the Israelite first-born.
Even the Egyptians had to come to KNOW. Even Jethro -- who tried every religion in the world -- had to admit in the end: "Now I KNOW that HaShem is greater than all the gods." (Ex. 18:11). More than anyone, the Israelites -- who in slavery fell into the false consciousness imposed on them by their oppressors -- had to learn the lesson on their own flesh. The Exodus from Egypt is the pivotal event in the history of the People of Israel, the very brith of the nation. The climax was to come at Mount Sinai, when the entire nation, together and in unity, witnessed G-d's revelation. The revelation at Sinai was a "mass conversion": the Rabbis point out that the three acts associated with conversion -- circumcision, immersion in the Mikveh [the Torah root of "baptism"] and [in Temple times,] a sacrificial offering, were all observed at Sinai.
After introducing us to the "upside-down" world of Egypt in the first chapter of Exodus, our parshah of SHEMOS immediately moves to the concepts of revelation and conversion. When Moses was born, "the whole house was filled with light" (Rashi on Ex. 2:2 "and she saw him THAT HE WAS GOOD" corresponding to "and G-d saw the light THAT IT WAS GOOD" Gen. 1:4). Immediately afterwards, "And Pharaoh's daughter went down to wash by the river" -- "she changed her religion and went to convert" (Baal HaTurim ibid.) In the merit of Batya's compassion for the baby Moses and her act of saving him, she was worthy of being one of the greatest ever converts. Batya's predecessor, Hagar, daughter of the Pharaoh of Abraham's days and mother of Ishmael, "went astray" (Gen. 21:14). But Batya married into the princely tribe of Judah (Sanhedrin 19b on Chronicles I, 4:18). The other prominent convert introduced in our parshah is Jethro.
In the upside-down world of Egypt it looks as though not G-d is running the world but Pharaoh. As discussed in the commentaries on Genesis, PhaRaOh is the embodiment of the OrePh, the "back of the neck" of the Creation as opposed to its inner face. Pharaoh is the epitome of worldly power and control, "the great crocodile squatting in his rivers who says 'the river is mine and I made myself' " (Ezekiel 29:3, Haftarah of next week's parshah when not Rosh Chodesh).
Pharaoh "does not know" HaShem: he resists knowing. Thus MITRAYIM is related to the root MEITZAR, the "narrow strait", a place of constriction. In kabbalistic literature, Pharaoh is called "the constriction of the throat" (MEITZAR HAGARON). Through the neck run three narrow channels that are vital to survival: the windpipe, the gullet and the jugular veins (corresponding to Pharaoh's three "officers", the Butler, the Baker and the Captain of the Guard). Life depends upon the free flow of gases, fluids and solids through these channels from the head down into the body, while all our functioning is governed through the most heavily protected channel of all: the spinal column, which extends down from the brainstem into the body via the neck.
The book of Genesis is the "head" of the Torah: BEREISHIS, "at the head". The first word and first verse of Genesis contain the entire creation "in a nutshell" (King Solomon's "garden of nuts"). The first book of the Torah is the head and brain in the sense that it introduces us to all the fundamentals of true religion. The rest of the Torah is the "body". Exodus is the "arms" ("for with a mighty HAND G-d took you out of Egypt" Ex. 13:9). Leviticus is the middle and heart of the Torah: "You shall be holy, for I HaShem your G-d am holy" -- "and love your neighbor as yourself" (Leviticus ch. 19 v. 2 and v. 18). The Book of Numbers is the "legs": the Children of Israel are on the move through the wilderness -- "these are the journeys of the Children of Israel" (Numbers 33:1). Finally Deuteronomy is the "feet" -- Malchus, the lowest level: "the END of the matter, when all has been heard: fear G-d and observe His commandments, for that is the Whole Man" (Koheles 12:13).
With the opening of the book of Exodus, we are at the beginning of the transition from "the head", Genesis, to the "body", the rest of the Torah. We are at the "neck". This is why we must now encounter Pharaoh, the "back of the neck" -- the real Pharaoh, no longer Joseph's "friendly" patron but a wicked tyrant who, to perpetuate his own rule, is hell-bent on keeping the world from KNOWING G-D.
Pharaoh's scheme is to constrict the passage of DAAS from the head and brain down into the body. Whereas the nervous system connects the body with the brain, bringing sensation, awareness and consciousness to all parts, Pharaoh's officers work to constrict the flow of awareness. The Butler and the Baker make us want to eat and involve ourselves in the material world, but our material involvements, although vital for our survival, often tend to distract and separate us from the life of the spirit. We fall into false consciousness, and the battle for physical survival and material gratification becomes paramount. We spend our lives building "store cities for Pharaoh" (Ex. 1:11).
The role of Moses is to bring DAAS, spiritual knowledge and awareness from the "head" down into the "body". It is not enough to know that there is a G-d in our minds. We have to bring that knowledge down into our actual lives and daily activities. "And you shall KNOW TODAY and BRING DOWN INTO YOUR HEART that HaShem is G-d in the heaven above and on the earth below, there is none other" (Deut. 4:39).
Adam was created for the highest mission, to "fill the earth and conquer it and rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the heavens and every living being swarming on the earth" (Gen. 1:28). But Adam fell from his mission, and instead of "tending and guarding" the Garden of Eden (Gen. 2:15), he was driven out to become slave to the earth: "With the sweat of your brow you will eat bread." (Gen. 3:19).
The only way for the Children of Adam to escape this servitude is through the Shabbos, which each week releases man from slavery to the material world and the battle for survival, lifting him above it to the world of DAAS, the knowledge and awareness of G-d.
Thus when Moses first went into Pharaoh, his initial request was that the Children of Israel should have a holiday from their slavery: "Let us please go for a journey of three days into the wilderness, and there we will sacrifice to HaShem our G-d" (Ex. 5:3).
Pharaoh's immediate reaction was to resist the idea: "Why are you disturbing the people from their labors, go back to your tasks. You are causing them to cease from their tasks" (Ex. 5:5). The Hebrew for "you are disturbing" is taPhRiyOO, containing the word PHARAOH -- as if Moses and Aaron are the tyrants. The Hebrew for "You are causing them to cease" is ve-hiSHBATem, containing the word SHABBOS. Pharaoh's scheme for preventing DAAS spreading from the head, Moses, to the Children of Israel, the body, was to make the Children of Israel so busy with this-worldliness that they would not have TIME to be aware of G-d. And indeed the Children of Israel became so wearied by their intensified servitude on the threshold of redemption that "they did not listen to Moses because of shortness of spirit and hard work" (Gen. 6:9).
Moses had to legislate the Shabbos because there is a wicked force in man -- Pharaoh -- that will not allow him to rest from the world until he must by law! Shabbos was the first commandment given to the Children of Israel directly after their entry into the wilderness following the crossing of the Red Sea (Rashi on Ex. 15:25). Shabbos -- SHEVITA, the willful cessation of and resting from MELACHAH, deliberate, manipulative labor -- is the very key to man's freedom from the tyranny of this world.
"In the merit of the righteous women that were in that generation, Israel were redeemed from Egypt" (Sotah 11b).
The Midrashim give many examples of the heroism and self-sacrifice of the women of the period of exile and slavery in Egypt in lifting their husbands' spirits and breeding new generations for a better future.
While our parshah introduces the Savior of Israel -- Moses -- who was a man, it is striking that the most decisive roles are played by women. In Genesis we saw a succession of great women turning and shaping history on their own initiative, such as Sarah, Rebeccah, Rachel, Leah and Tamar. In our parshah this is a recurring phenomenon: four outstanding women take decisive action on their own initiative to bring about redemption: Jochebed, Miriam, Batya and Tziporah.
Thus when Pharaoh wanted to kill the Israelite boys, it was the two midwives, "Shifra" and "Pu'ah" (= Jochebed and Miriam) who cleverly frustrated his plans. When Amram "took the daughter of Levi (=Jochebed)" (Ex. 2:1) from whom he had separated because he did not want to breed children who would be killed, it was on the initiative of Miriam that he relented (see Rashi ad loc.). By drawing Moses out of the water, Batya saved the entire world. The dauntless Miriam went straight up to the king's daughter offering to bring someone to take care of the rescued baby. Batya had the good sense to understood the crucial importance of good nurturing. Jethro's daughters were perhaps too modest to invite Moses home until their father told them -- after all, they thought he was an Egyptian (Ex. 2:19-20). However, Tziporah showed no hesitation when she saw an angel consuming her husband Moses for failing to circumcise Eliezer: she took a flint and performed the bloody circumcision herself, showing that as a true righteous convert, her heart was circumcised to G-d.
In all these cases, examples, the heroism and initiative of these women is bound up with breeding and rearing future generations to know and serve G-d. | 2019-04-18T12:27:05 | http://www.azamra.org/Parshah/SHEMOS.htm |

Bob Sims is a Mason who raises the magic of Freemasonry to a different level. A member of North Shore Lodge No 7916, Bob is also a member of the Magic Circle and he fascinated and amazed an audience of Masons and non-Masons after a regular meeting of his lodge when he gave a talk on the ‘Magic Circle and Freemasonry’, describing how membership of the Magic Circle bears a close resemblance to that of Freemasonry.
Plunging with little preamble into the main topic of his discourse, Bob related how the structure and progression through the degrees in Freemasonry was adopted as a blueprint for membership in the Magic Circle; proposed and seconded by existing members of the circle, a period of apprenticeship to qualify as an associate of the Inner Magic Circle and, rising through merit to a full membership of the Inner Magic Circle. Little wonder that the society’s structure reflects that of Masonry for many of its founding members in 1905 were not only prominent magicians but also Freemasons. The motto of the society is ‘indocilis privata loqui’, roughly translated into ‘not apt to disclose secrets’. All Masons can identify with those words.
Len Jolley WM (left) with Bob Sims.
Bob presented a captivating account of the growth of the Magic Circle and spoke in some detail about two of the most famous magicians who were also Freemasons; Chung Ling Soo and Harry Houdini.
Chung Ling Soo (a bogus Chinaman whose real name was William Ellsworth Robinson from Westchester County, New York) is best remembered today for his tragic death after his famous bullet-caught-between-his teeth trick went dramatically and tragically wrong. Indeed, it was at that moment when he had been hit in the chest by the bullet that he uttered his last words on stage, “Oh my God. Something’s happened. Lower the curtain.” It was the first and last time since adopting his persona as a Chinaman and sobriquet of ‘Chung Ling Soo’ that William Robinson had spoken English in public. For 18 years, Robinson had faithfully applied his guise as a Chinaman by never speaking in public. He even engaged the services of a fake interpreter during radio or newspaper interviews to uphold his deception.
Harry Houdini, born Erik Weisz, is arguably the best known magician of all times. His very name conjures up visions of death defying stunts, exciting escapes, mystical marvels, and an enigmatic persona capable of the impossible. For many years he was the highest paid performer in American vaudeville. Harry Houdini was initiated into St Cecile Lodge No 568 in New York on 17 July 1923 and was passed on 31 July and raised on 21 August of the same year. Even that achievement would be bordering on miraculous under the constitution of the United Grand Lodge of England nowadays. Houdini at one point contemplated adding the bullet-catching trick that had killed Chung Ling Soo to his repertoire but was persuaded not to by his fellow magician and Mason Harry Keller, who considered that there were too many elements of the trick that could go wrong. It would appear that their Masonic connections taught them to be cautious.
In his dialogue, Bob also mentioned that there are over 1,500 members of the Magic Circle, including Charles, Prince of Wales, David Copperfield, Ken Dodd, Wayne Dobson, Dynamo, Nigel Mansell, and Paul Daniels. The club was male-only until 1991 and there are now around 80 female members including Paul Daniels’ wife Debbie McGee.
Bringing his own brand of magic to the evening was Peter Bentham, Chairman of the Blackpool group of lodges, himself a member of North Shore lodge. Along with the others present, Peter was held in awe by Bob’s performance of magic tricks; levitating a table and skull, visibly cutting rope into short lengths and mystifyingly returning the shreds to a single undamaged piece, and defying Isaac Newton’s laws of gravity by suspending water in mid-air. It is said that magic is an art in which you use sleight of hand or illusion to create wonder. And Bob certainly created wonder that evening.
Pictured from left to right, are; Peter Bentham, Len Jolley WM, and Bob Sims.
But the real magic of Freemasonry is not an illusion and, on retiring to the festive board, the brethren swiftly made their three course meal disappear without a trace. It was a perfect end to a most enjoyable, entertaining, and mystifying night. Bob had been the bill-topper and kept his audience spellbound with a fascinating talk and magical performance. | 2019-04-18T15:22:18 | http://blackpool.westlancsfreemasons.org.uk/the-magic-circle-and-freemasonry/ |

As the political showdown of the twenty-first century quickly comes into view, I find myself asking what mode will these two leaders be in – contest or coalition?
If anything, last month’s successful Korean summit only makes the outcome of President Donald Trump’s meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un all the more significant.
Is this the beginning of a smart coalition, or just two narcissists feigning collaboration in an attempt to score points off one another?
This question faces big business, too. Why? Because businesses could get away with silo thinking in the old economy in a way that they no longer can. With coalitions of leaders now required to make big transformations happen – and at pace – there is no longer space for individual heroes to take centre stage.
But is enough effort going into making this happen?
Fostering a shared agenda will enable leaders to execute at pace. While beliefs may differ, without establishing common ground there is nothing to coalesce around.
This ability to build deep and productive relationships is fundamental to any effective union. Without this, it becomes an ideological tug of war, where decisions are made only when one party accepts that contending with the other is futile.
Beyond a shared agenda and deep relationships, one other ingredient is key: just enough ego. While it often gets a bad rep – particularly when it comes to leaders throwing their weight around – the truth is that it’s a critical quality for any leader.
Balancing these three components, however, is no mean feat. So how do Trump and Kim match up?
In terms of shared interest, they have far more in common than you might first think.
Fundamentally, they both crave absolute reverence and admiration. Achieving a lasting peace may in fact be their best option in achieving this from a sceptical global audience.
In business, however, this is far more complex. There are so many factors at play: the reward system, conflicting personal motivations, and the challenge of attaining deep commitment towards a future direction.
What we have seen though is that if the direction is designed to integrate purpose, strategy, and behaviours, and they get the space to debate it – anything is possible.
Deep relationships? The jury is still out on this one. It’s impossible to predict what could happen when these two political juggernauts collide.
In business, people are often too simplistic in their assessment of what this means, reducing the subject down to time spent together. The truth is – while beneficial – getting along on a personal level is not really that relevant in a business context.
Instead, what leaders should do is work actively to strengthen working relationships with their peers – making it a subject of conversation, and being upfront about what topics of conversation are difficult, and why.
Trump and Kim do less well when we look at ego. Two leaders, known for an unwavering self-confidence in their own decision-making are unlikely to take the time to step back, assess the risks, and recalibrate. Decisions are made – and that’s final.
While in any business you need a healthy level of confidence to make things happen, ego is only powerful if coupled with the propensity for self-awareness and just enough analysis. Too much and the moment passes, too little and decisions often go awry.
Ultimately, no one really knows what will happen when Trump and Kim finally meet.
But as leaders in big businesses, what we do know is that the “whole is greater than the sum of its parts”. Coalition will always trump conflict. | 2019-04-26T12:36:11 | https://businessthreezero.com/article/president-trump-and-kim-jong-uns-meeting-could-be-the-start-of-a-peaceful-coalition-or-a-contest-of-egos |

Introduction: In present study, a simple liquid-liquid extraction-high performance liquid chromatography–fluorescence method was developed for the determination of fluoxetine (FLU) in rat plasma samples.
Materials and Methods: A MZ Analytical Column C18 (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5µm i.d.) was used for the separation of FLU. The total analysis time was less than 7 minutes. The rat plasma samples were simply treated with acetonitrile and analyzed using developed method.
Conclusion: The recovery of the FLU from rat plasma samples is 92.70% ± 0.48. FLU in spiked rat plasma samples provided linear data over a range of 0.2 – 2.00 µg mL-1. The method was validated according to the FDA guidelines and can be proposed for quantification of FLU in rat plasma.
Keywords: Fluoxetine, high performance liquid chromatography, rat plasma, validation, fluorescence detection.

So a few months ago (joke I think it was November after my Tokyo trip), I brought up the idea to my best friend Den and we both started planning #ABC25YAY. This meant: endless messages of ideas, nights spent drinking wine and playing the guitar, and lots of bff bonding. We live literally near each other (since we were born) and growing up, we used to have these programs (LOL) in her attic with performances, speeches, etc. I directed a Mother’s Day play if I remember correctly. Haha! We still carry the same imaginative spirit we had in our younger years.
In this post, I’m sharing with you how we pulled off this party in less than 2 months (on a tight budget). I’ve been getting requests about this so I hope you get to take notes and snag a few ideas from my own party! Enjoy!
We decided to cut costs with this and used our (new) house’s living room / dining room area (ground floor) for the venue. I think the only downside of this was the post-cleaning we had to do after the party. Our house is still not 100% done so we can’t leave anything behind since there will be construction going on in the next few weeks. Either way though, I found this the most efficient venue since we didn’t have to rent out a space and worry about parking since it’s a compound with a lot of (empty) units (as of now). Haha!
I made sure my guests came in Abbey colors, aka: autumn colors, and a bit of pastel hues. So I posted a bunch of outfit inspirations for them to follow. So proud; everyone came in mustard, aka Gen Z Yellow. LOL.
We got Verleo to cater for the food. Quick backstory: I come from a big family (as in we’re 30+ cousins) and we usually have Verleo do the catering for our reunions and events, so I was pretty familiar with the food (which I love) and their service.
Knowing me and how much I love my decorated walls (I have most of them mounted up on my events!), I printed out posters (from freevintageposters.com and the Vincent Van Gogh museum website) and some stills from Wes Anderson’s films, put them all together, and voila, photo wall!
At the side is my Instax SP-2 printer and a table full of Instax films (thanks to my Instax Philippines family!) where guests can snap and take home a print from the party.
Let’s be real: I love my yellow-colored desserts. Lemon bars, cheese donuts, banana cupcakes…and I specially requested Macy to bake these gorgeous sunflower cupcakes for the party. You can check out her website for inquiries. I ordered mini cupcakes from Cup.K to add more color to the set-up (and also: I love carrot cupcakes too!). And of course, the highlight of the cake table is this beautifully painted Van Gogh-inspired cake from Lovelots Cakes. Thanks so much to Mel for making this! I sent a detailed brief of Van Gogh’s colors and strokes and I loved how it turned out. Of course, by default, I hand-lettered my own cake topper. Thanks Gelo for the polaroid snap!
For the set-up, we found these pretty streamers at Party Celebrations in SM Megamall (these are 2 combined) and the “CELEBRATE” banner is from Kikki.K’s Paper Book for Everyday Inspiration. Jean lent me her vintage lantern (Wes feels!) and the crates, trays and wooden holders are all mine. I guess my props were put to good use, so yay? Lol.
My friend Christie was the party host, and I did a super simple program flow. We were supposed to play parlor games but I think everyone was more concerned with chatting, so we decided to leave it out at the last minute.
I designed a set of button pins for the guests to take away. I especially loved Van Gogh’s quote: “I feel that there is nothing more truly artistic than to love people.” and of course, the TLR camera was an ode to Wes Anderson’s films.
I ordered these gift boxes from Shopee which were, of course, on brand! Love the world map print.
Leaving with you some tips on how to DIY your own party below!
Pinterest is your best friend (no, really, it is, promise). Make a board, save up some inspiration, and pin away!
It helps to create a PPT / Keynote to compile all your ideas (sorry, type A Capricorn self coming through) from the Pinterest board.
Schedule your tasks accordingly. Before the event day, we ran errands—from decor hunting, to supermarket shopping, to doing initial set-ups for the venue.
Don’t overthink it. I know that feeling because I have a creative job too, but I didn’t stress myself out too much while fixing my party (except on the day before lol) and it’s really helped me feel less pressured to “deliver”. Again, this isn’t a client project. Haha!
Enjoy! I think that’s the key part of this. Sure, we do all the labor, but it’s the kind that you’d enjoy, you know? That’s how I’ll always remember it. And of course, the whole event was super fun—I got to see all my favorite people under one roof.
Planning a party anytime soon? Let me know in the comments below! | 2019-04-24T14:21:24 | http://abbey-sy.com/2018/01/20/my-diy-birthday-party-abc25yay/ |
White flowers from May to September.
Looking for something in red, this drought tolerant variety can be placed in full sun or partial shade. 'Cajun Fire' is a Heuchera with red leaves that change colour with the seasons. In spring when it is in growth the foliage is red and as summer progresses turn dark maroon to almost black and back to maroon in autumn.
Like most Coral Bells this is mound forming with white flowers on short stems over red to dark red foliage depending on the season. As the name suggests it can take the heat and prefers it on the dry side.
This would look great planted with other bright green contrasting foliage Heuchera plants or to complement other more variegated red or varieties with other shades of red. | 2019-04-18T10:43:24 | http://www.plantpost.co.uk/heuchera-cajun-fire.php |

Warsaw Gallery Weekend (WGW) took place on the last weekend of September. More than 20 galleries were open till late and presented special programmes and exhibitions, artists opened their studios, public institutions invited collectors and curator to discussions, galleries arranged performances, concerts and tours. A city plan was necessary to find many of the listed venues but once you did, you entered wonderful, experimental, alternative art spaces. Some are in old communist blocks of flats (Dawid Radziszewski Gallery), on main streets among shops (Monopol), in basements (Czulosc) or perched on the top floors of historical buildings (local_30). There is no rule. Some of the others, are located more centrally, with windows on the main street (Raster Gallery) or far away from the city centre (Leto Gallery). The atmosphere during WGW was welcoming and you got a chance to be toured around by the gallery’s host.
Warsaw art scene is often called up-and-coming. Many local critics and curators still see the art scene as provincial with a complex and envy towards more established art centers in Berlin or Vienna. However, for those from outside of Warsaw (like us), the WGW offered a unique feel and its own take on contemporary art – without the need to make it feel like somewhere else. We came to Warsaw to enjoy Warsaw, be surprised and intrigued by it. We cherish the independence in Warsaw galleries where one feels that they showcase whatever they find interesting, with little evidence of treating art merely as business or cold economic calculation. See WGW 2014 through Lynx’s lense and take it as an invitation to Warsaw for the next year. Just make sure you bring comfortable shoes and a city plan. | 2019-04-21T18:53:39 | https://contemporarylynx.co.uk/warsaw-gallery-weekend-photo-story |

Some users may wish to install ACCOUNTS on two or more computers (for instance, one at work and one at home) and have access to the same database from those computers. This could be for themselves, or for different people. The Web Network Version is one way to do that.
There are also several other options for multiple users accessing ACCOUNTS, detailed on the Multiple User Options page, including the Cloud Storage Service, or using the Local Network Versions of ACCOUNTS, or using a remote-access solution. This page is only about the Web Network Version. The Multiple User Options page gives pros and cons for each option.
With this version, the program will still be installed on your Windows computers, but your database will be stored on our Internet server ("in the cloud"). The program will securely access that database directly over the Internet. Each user of this version for a given database will have their own login (an email address) and password required to access the database.
With this version, like the Local Network Version, there is only one copy of the database file, so there are no real dangers of users making independent changes to independent copies of it, that cannot then be merged. The database is accessible from any computer on which you have installed the Web Network Version.
Of course, because you are accessing your data over the Internet, depending on the speed of your Internet connection, this version will generally be noticeably slower than running other versions that have the database on your own computer, or even on a local network with the regular Local Network Versions.
You should only choose this version if you have reliable high-speed Internet.
You can pay for the Web Network Version of ACCOUNTS either at the regular Standalone version rate, in which case only one user will be able to use a given Web Network Version database at a time, or at the Local Network Version rate, in which case you can have multiple simultaneous users.
•Annual renewals are required to keep using it after the first year. If you do not pay your renewal when your current annual support expires, you will lose access to your database until you pay again, after a 30-day grace period.
•If you have multiple databases for multiple organizations, you will have to register independently (with different email addresses) and pay independently for each one, unlike existing versions where you can add additional databases for free.
We will take care of your backups for you with this version, so you don't have to worry about them. Because of this, most of the Backup/Restore menu options are not present in this version.
See Web Network Version Backups for full details.
Unlike all other versions of ACCOUNTS, there is no need for license keys after each payment. The program will communicate with the server each time you run it, to determine its licensing status.
As mentioned above, each user of a Web Network Version database will have their own login. Please see Web Network Version Login and Startup for how your program and its database are initially set up.
That section also explains potential problems connection to the server, particularly about firewalls.
Once you can log in with that email address and password, you will be prompted to convert the data from your existing local ACCOUNTS database to the new web database. This conversion is also referred to as an "upload".
Note: The one version you cannot do the initial conversion from is the Local Network Client version of ACCOUNTS, if you had that on your computer as part of a Local Network Version installation. If you do have that version on your computer, install the Web Network Version on the computer running the Local Network Server version first, and do the uploading of your data there. Then you can install the Web Network Version on top of your Local Network Client version, and log in to the same database.
For users of the Standalone version, who were already sharing the database between multiple computers in other ways - using the Cloud Storage Service or Transfer your Data between Computers, just make sure you do the initial install of the Web Network Version, and conversion, on a computer that has the latest version of your database on it. You can then assign logins to the other users as explained in Web Network Version User Management, then they can install the Web Network Version and login to your shared web database.
If one user is using the Web Network Version, all users have to, or you will not be accessing the same copy of the database!
See Web Network Version Login and Initial Setup for further details.
Each user of the Web Network Version should have their own login email address and password. See Web Network Version User Management for details on setting that up and managing it.
Please see the Web Network Version Security page.
One situation in which there would still be no additional charge for this with the Web Network Version is if the multiple databases were already registered separately and being paid for separately, but one or more users use more than one of those databases. That might be a fill-in volunteer or staff person who also works with another organization, or perhaps your accountant.
First, use the File -> Open Database menu option to switch the current local database - which doesn't do anything to your current web database. Next, exit the program, restart it, and use the Register button on the Login window to register a 2nd email address, with the details for that other database that you just switched to locally.
Once that upload is done, you can log in to whichever of the databases you want to by using the appropriate email address for your login, when you start ACCOUNTS.
If you need to do this and you don't currently have a 2nd email address, please try to obtain one yourself, whether it is on the domain of the organization you are doing this for (if they have their own email domain), or as a free address from one of the standard free email services, such as Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo, etc. You can then set up that email address to always forward all emails to your main email address, if you wish, so that all emails sent to either address come into the same Inbox.
The other case is the one described in the 2nd paragraph of this section, where there are users who have access to two or more existing web databases that are already paid for independently. Those users do NOT have to register a 2nd email address with us - they can just be granted access by the Administrators of those ACCOUNTS web databases, using the same email address for each one.
If you have only paid at the Standalone version price and thus can have only one simultaneous user, if another user tried to login to the same database, they will not be allowed to do so. The rest of this section is relevant to the case when up to 5 simultaneous users are allowed.
While you can have simultaneous users running ACCOUNTS, there are some actions in the program that can only be run when you are the only user running ACCOUNTS, because we have judged that there is too much danger of conflicting or inconsistent data being put into the database if more than one person tries to do the same actions at the same time. In these cases, you will receive a message from the program informing you of why you cannot do that action at that time. To resolve the problem, ask other simultaneous users of the same ACCOUNTS database to exit the program, and then try the action again.
Although the ACCOUNTS program almost never crashes, if it does, or if a user running ACCOUNTS restarts or turns off their computer without exiting ACCOUNTS first or there is a power failure, a minor problem can occur. Any user on another computer that tries to run ACCOUNTS may get a message that the maximum number of simultaneous users has been exceeded, when it in fact hasn't. (That includes if only one simultaneous user is allowed!) That's because the copy of ACCOUNTS that crashed, or wasn't exited properly when its computer was restarted, didn't have a chance to notify the database server that it had exited, and thus the server thinks it is still using up one of your simultaneous users. Fortunately, this problem is easily resolved - wait two minutes and try again, and it will be OK, because indications in the server that any given simultaneous user is using ACCOUNTS are automatically cleared after two minutes.
Because you are using up server resources, you should exit ACCOUNTS when you are not using it. This is also relevant if your license only allows one simultaneous user, because nobody else can use it while you are doing so. If you are using the Web Network Version and you leave ACCOUNTS running for two hours without doing anything in it, it will automatically disconnect from the server and exit the program, so that others can use it and you are no longer using up server resources. The program will of course tell you it has done that.
Please note that this automatic exiting after two hours of inactivity will also abandon any unsaved changes to transactions on various windows, including the Register and the various special-purpose data entry windows. So you should never leave the program alone for that long when you are in the middle of unsaved data entry!
It is also possible to switch back from the Web Network Version to any one of the other versions (Standalone or Local Network Server). To do so, first just use the Web Network Version's Upload/Download ⇒ Download Web Database to Local menu option to copy all of your data down from your web database to a local database on your computer. Then re-install the desired other version from the DOWNLOAD page on the website, www.software4nonprofits.com/accounts/download.htm, on top of your Web Network Version. It should then come up with all of your data there. You may need to request an updated license key, since all of the other versions need license keys.
If what you switched back to was the Local Network Server version, because you want to resume using that Local Network version on a network within your building, you can then install the Local Network Client versions as you usually would. Please carefully follow the instructions for that.
One complication could be that if you had previously upgraded the same computer from a non-Web Network Version of ACCOUNTS to the Web Network Version, and then want to switch back, when you run the installation program for your desired other version it could tell you that you aren't entitled to the upgrade because your license key indicates your support and upgrades eligibility has expired. Assuming you were paid up for the Web Network Version, you can click OK to that message, and answer Yes to the following question it asks you about deleting the license key file and continuing. After that, the install will complete, and as mentioned above you can then request your updated license key through the program.
Please inform us if you make this change, so we can update your records in our user database appropriately, to reflect which version you have switched to! | 2019-04-25T17:54:08 | http://www.software4nonprofits.com/AccountsManual/web-network-version.htm |
Kenny Chesney released the single “Setting the world on fire” featuring Pink last month and has debuted the video now even though the singers don’t appear in the clip.
The black and white video, directed by P.R. Brown and produced by Steve Lamar, takes place in Los Angeles, and is a romantic look at a young couple’s day of breezy love.

Surrealistic original vintage Hungarian movie poster for a 1982 Polish movie by Ducki Krysztof, Emergency Exit (original title: Wyjscie awaryjne) directed by Roman Zaluski.
The film takes place in a small, Polish village at the beginning of the 80s. This is where the Koledowie family lives. Ms. Koleda is the head of the local community. Her husband grows flowers in a greenhouse and breeds ducks. They also have a pretty, unemployed daughter. One day Ms. Koleda finds out she is soon going to become a grandmother. The fear of losing her authority and being involved in a scandal leads her to come up with a really devilish plan. | 2019-04-20T02:11:54 | https://budapestposter.com/posters/emergency-exit |
Could you explain why not B?
Hm. I don't see any way in which (B) explains cooperative breeding. Let's try this: what did you find attractive about (B)?
Yes, (B) would be helpful if it said that!
But it doesn't, and since this is straight multiple choice, you can't earn points by augmenting an answer choice to make it more correct. You've got to just deal with the answer choices as they're written, and don't add to them. | 2019-04-24T16:17:56 | https://www.velocitylsat.com/video/48-lr-two-question-24 |

Two months ago a new Internet service with real estate focus was launched in Sweden. The service, Bostart, aims to make it easier for the seller of residential houses/flats to negotiate the brokage fee.
I'm happy to see that the service has attracted more than 100 brokage firms in the first months. The real estate industry, both residential and commercial, needs to be more efficient. This is, for sure, a service I'll use when it's time 'to upgrade' the state of living. | 2019-04-23T09:03:54 | http://www.thebeliever.se/smart-use-of-internet/2006/6/17/a-promising-start-for-bostartse.html |
During our stay in Fairbanks, we camped at two different spots (okay three, but Wal-Mart’s parking lot doesn’t count). In addition to the places we stayed, we scouted out some amazing spots that would be ideal for boondocking in Fairbanks – and they were free!
The two spots at which we camped were both paid spots. This isn’t our ideal situation, as we prefer boondocking at free locations. However, sometimes convenience overtakes price and we decided to pay for a spot in town rather than camp where we didn’t have cell signal. After all, Mom was coming into town so we needed signal to make sure she was all in line (good thing we did that, because she missed her flight).
The first cheap campsite in Fairbanks that we stayed was Pioneer Park. Pioneer Park is a centrally located park in Fairbanks. The city park has a little festival-style area that has games, rides, and park features. This is really a great area to take families for a fun time. It’s also right on the Chena River, making river access quite easy. We paddled the river and launched our boat just right there from the park! There are kayak and raft rentals available as well.
Pioneer Park is $12 per night at the time we stayed. There are no hookups, but there is a water fill available when you pull in. There is a Tesoro gas station that has a dump for use if you fill up there. The gas station is off of Cushman Street. We saw some reports of WiFi, but that is incorrect. There is a signal being put off, but the signal is for the park’s communication devices, not for public use. Overall, the park is a good price for where it is located and how easy it is to access amenities in Fairbanks.
We stayed at Pioneer Park for four nights. Note that their max stay is five nights. We didn’t see a need to stay much longer anyway, as it is a parking lot that you are camping in. Four nights was plenty for us to be able to explore Fairbanks and find a nicer campground to move to for the remainder of our stay. This is a good option for boondocking in Fairbanks for a short stay in town.
The campground that we moved to after Pioneer Park was the Chena River State Recreation Area. Again, this campground was very conveniently located in town, just about 5 minutes from the airport. While there are no hookups at this location either, it is very quiet and a beautiful site for just $20 per night. We stayed here for three nights while we wrapped up our visit to Fairbanks.
There are about 45 campsites available in the Chena River State Recreation Area. We were there the weekend before Fourth of July weekend, and not all campsites were taken. I imagine it was probably full on the holiday weekend. Regardless, it was a quiet area for being centrally located and a popular area.
There is WiFi at this campground, but it is a relatively weak signal. Our campsite was the closest to the office that is offered, but we still had very weak signal. There is an office lounge area that you can come inside to connect to the WiFi if you can’t get the signal from your campsite. That’s a nice perk for an otherwise no services campground.
Although we ended up staying at paid campgrounds for the duration of our stay, there are options for free boondocking in Fairbanks and surrounding areas. Wal-Mart does allow overnight stays for free and actually has RV specific spots in their parking lot. We utilized their lot for one night while we got our bearings and stocked up on groceries. I will mention that there appear to be some RVs in the lot that have been there for quite a while. It’s nothing like the Whitehorse Wal-Mart, but it’s something to look out for at the very least. Be sure to never overstay and always clean up after yourself when using a Wal-Mart parking lot as an overnight. These are what we would consider “overnight stops” rather than camping.
While we were out driving around, we scouted out some gorgeous campground areas on Chena Hot Springs Road. These are free campgrounds on state land. Although we did not stay at them, we thought we would share them for others’ information! Note that there are NO cell services at any of these sites, which is the primary reason that we decided against them.
We did stop in at the BLM Field Office and the DNR Office to pick their brains on possibilities for boondocking in Fairbanks, but they were unable to point us in any particular direction other than the paid campgrounds. No worries, though, we scouted some places out for you!
Going out on Chena Hot Springs Road from Fairbanks, mile marker 38.2 had a great pull out area with 4 or 5 camping spots. The road was gravel with a few pot holes, but we would have felt comfortable bringing our 38-foot motorhome down the road. It is a very short road and comes to a river access area that is spectacular. The forest around the area offers privacy and noise reduction from the adjacent highway. This would be a great place to hang out for a few days of peace and quiet and escape from reality.
At Mile Marker 48, there is a sign for the 48 Mile Pond. Down this gravel road less than a quarter mile, there is a pond with 3-4 campsites around it. We drove Daypack (our Fiat) around the area with no problems, and it would be find to drive a larger rig into. It wouldn’t be easy to back out of, as it is not wide, but it is doable with some skilled maneuvering. When we pulled in to scope out the area, there was a large cow moose munching on some grass in the pond! She was more concerned with her dinner than with us, and we were able to snap some great pictures of her! While we watched her eat, a camper pulled in on the other side of the pond and set up camp. This spot is absolutely gorgeous and would be a great place to spend some time. With no cell signal, though, it would be tough to stay for too long!
There are some really great areas for boondocking in Fairbanks and in the surrounding areas, but you just need to keep your eyes peeled! Down Chena Hot Springs Road after about mile marker 25 or so, there are several places that looked like good potential camping spots, especially for smaller rigs with higher ground clearance. We were still surprised at the places we found that were accessible to larger rigs as well! So if you are in the area and cell signal is not as important, drive around and scout some areas out before you pay for a parking lot!
Let us know if you find more campsites in the area! We are always looking to help others out! And don’t forget to subscribe below for the latest updates in our adventures. Until next time, Live Vicariously!
Great BDing info on Fairbanks and Chen Hot Springs. Thanks as we will be there in July/Aug.
Thank you so very, very much! My father is very ill and lives in Fairbanks. Money is very tight for us right now but I must go take care of him. This information you’ve shared is a life saver!! As it will ensure my ability to care for both my family and my father’s needs. Thank you & God bless!
I live and die by traveler blogs when I am out adventuring. I just landed in Fairbanks and needed a quick reference for out of the way camping and this is perfect. It is raining now, but I will head up to Mile Marker 48 later on today. Love this and thank you!!
Glad to help! 😀 We hope you enjoy Alaska!
Thanks, Stephanie. Love the blog, headed for Alaska from Yellowstone in June, 18. 38 foot class A, self contained. Hope to dry camp most of the way.
Awesome, you’ll have a blast! Are you staying in Alaska long? Our 1 month trip was not long enough and we’ve been aching to get back there. Enjoy your trip! | 2019-04-19T06:19:29 | https://www.explorist.life/boondocking-fairbanks-beautiful-cheap-camping/ |
People nowadays are realizing more that it pays to buy things that are made with higher-quality materials, and designed to last longer, whether it's clothing or furniture. Some are calling it the "New Consumerism", but we could also call it just plain old common sense -- why be a slave to fashions that are arbitrarily changed by someone else? Why not just invest in something that will last longer for many years to come?
Introducing The DUMBO Desk from Casa Kids from Roberto Gil on Vimeo.
Created by architect and designer Roberto Gil, the DUMBO desk is inspired by the works of design masters and artists like Jean Prouvé, Piet Mondrian and Donald Judd.
In the Mondrian-inspired version, the combination of bright colours and shifting shapes makes for an impressive desk that looks like a command center for creativity -- the company calls it the "ultimate workspace for the modern child". It measures 84 inches across, meaning that there is oodles of space for displaying books, trophies and trinkets, as well as space for a computer or for making art, models, or tinkering. It also measures only 1 inch lower than the typical adult desk, meaning that it can very easily transition into the older years, especially if the toned down palettes of birch, walnut, and oak are selected. It could also be painted. To keep wires out of sight, there are rear wire holes and a hidden shelf under the desk.
Designing stuff to last longer and to be adaptable is part of resilient design, something that all makers need to think about, whether it's making homes, communities or furniture. This custom-made desk doesn't come cheap though: according to the website, it starts at USD $5,000 -- but as the maxim goes, you get what you pay for, and this desk has been designed to not only be useful in childhood, but into adulthood as well. More over at Casa Kids.
Hand-made with high quality, sustainably harvested woods, this is one desk meant for both kids and grown-ups. | 2019-04-26T13:10:54 | https://www.treehugger.com/eco-friendly-furniture/dumbo-desk-casa-kids-roberto-gil.html |

Citroen seems to prepare a limited edition of the Citroen DS3 Cabrio Racing concept as an official dealer said that the model is very likely to enter production.
Priced from around 30,000, the DS3 Racing Cabrio would be produced in a limited number of 200 units. Under the bonnet expect to see a 1.6-liter THP unit producing 202 horsepower, an output capable to provide decent performance figures.
At the exterior, we will see the matte grey finish with red accents, new side mirrors, LED daytime running lights, 19-inch alloy wheels, chrome inserts and other minor tweaks.
Inside, the French model gets sports seats, new steering wheel, red inserts, alloy pedals, carbon fiber trim and new upholstery.
Citroen denied releasing any official details if the model will enter production but the current assumptions are pretty strong, mainly considering that they come from an official dealer. | 2019-04-19T15:22:40 | http://www.automotorblog.com/citroen-to-build-the-ds3-racing-cabrio-in-limited-edition-49773.html |

We are deeply disappointed by President Trump’s decision to pull the United States out of the Iran Deal. Even though we are disappointed, The United Methodist Church will continue to support diplomacy as an effective tool for peacebuilding around the world. As followers of the Prince of Peace, we can do no less.
The facts show that the Deal is working, and the International Atomic Energy Agency continues to verify the efficacy of the safeguards in fulfillment of the terms of the Deal. The Deal put in place international safeguards and procedures to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon. The United Kingdom, Germany, France, Russia and China stand by the Deal, and strongly oppose the decision to pull the U.S. out of the Deal.
Reinstating sanctions on Iran is concerning on many levels, but most pressing: it will worsen living conditions for the Iranian people. Further, the call for regime change of the Iranian government by high-ranking U.S. officials has all the markings of comments leading to war. The words of President Trump today are very similar to sentiments the public heard in the lead up to the Iraq war. We must not allow that to become reality.
We are encouraged that the other signers, including Iran, have signaled a commitment to working together for the continued implementation of the Deal.
The Iran Nuclear Deal is a concrete step forward to ensure peace with Iran is not illusory, but a reality. We continue to pray for peace, wisdom, and an increased priority for diplomacy with Iran and among nations across the world.
Doubtless some other denominational agencies and church voices will follow suit in coming days. Jim Wallis of Sojourners starting during the Bush Administration organizing a religious coalition opposing military action against Iran and was vocal for the nuclear deal, about which he doubtless will soon speak again. In 2015 he explained it was a “good” and “Christian” option.
But strategic maneuverings among nations are rarely if ever clearly “Christian” and “good” or clearly not so. The previous administration gained the deal only after sanctions and implied military threats, which the Methodist statement opposes, and believed it was the best available means for restricting Iran from nuclear development for at least the duration of the agreement, at whose conclusion it was hoped other options would be available, or the nature of Iran’s Islamist regime changed.
Opponents of that deal believe it was at best a very flawed and temporary fix that empowered the Islamist regime by lifting sanctions, and that this newly empowered Iran has consequently asserted itself throughout the Mideast, especially in Syria.
The Methodist statement and earlier Sojourners pronouncements on Iran have avoided acknowledging the reality of Iran’s Islamist dictatorship, its repression of its own people, its strategic ambitions, its regional aggressions, and most disturbing, its apocalyptic religious outlook conducive to possibly suicidal acts that are difficult to deter.
Church groups that are pacifist like the Methodist lobby and Sojourners rightfully have little meaningful to say about statecraft, all of which is undergird directly or indirectly by force. They like diplomacy but ignore that diplomacy is waged by coercive states. And they tend to pretend that all governments are of the same nature, as though Iranian nukes would be no more troubling than French or British nukes. Jim Wallis seems actually to think the U.S. is possibly worse than Iran, as he cites the CIA’s role in the 1953 coup as legitimizing of Iranian Islamist rapid anti-Americanism.
Religious advocacy by Wallis, the Methodist lobby & similar groups would be more serious if they affirmed historic Christian teaching about a legitimate state’s vocation for force in some important circumstances. Instead, the Methodists foreswear even sanctions, as though diplomacy even with recalcitrant tyrants can be effective solely through appeals to good will. It also would be more moral, more Christian and more realistic if these church voices admitted that some regimes are considerably more sinister than others. Iran’s mullahs brutalize their own people and aren’t exactly cordial to neighboring states. Shouldn’t Christian voices seeking justice be concerned?
The Methodist statement specifically faulted desires for regime change in Iran. But shouldn’t all believers in God-given human dignity at least pray and hope that Iran some day is free of its current theocratic dictatorship?
If there are good and realistic arguments for the Iran deal, these religious voices avoid them in favor of a fantasy-based vision of the world. Their choice to neglect the historic ethical tools of their faith about war, peace and power is sad and requires they not be treated seriously. It’s their loss, but it’s also ours. Hopefully other Christian voices will speak with more fidelity and sobriety.
Where is your evidence that the current deal is working? Have you read through the Documents? Iran is not now progressing towards a bomb??
The author of this piece isn’t saying that the deal is working. The reference to the deal working is a quote from the United Methodist lobby office.
Mainline churches are disconnected from reality. I know I grew-up in one. One would think the barbaric facts of sharia would cause them to recognize the bully on the playground and at least run away if they didn’t want to fight. But no, like the Brits placated Hitler until everyone in Europe was swallowed up except for themselves and Switzerland, they want to somehow keep their concept of the moral high ground intact. If Jesus followed their example he would have never gone to the trouble of breaking the power over sin and death by defeating satan. He would have struck a deal with the devil out in the desert like Obama did with Iran. The backbone has left mainline churches. I saw leadership positions in the church switch hands over time due to complacency and unbelief. Until now, it’s simply a political mouthpiece of the left.
When pacifists ruled Europe’s largest countries, Hitler took over. Iran is a state that sponsors Terrorism. Period. Our God made the practice of Sekf Defence a priority in the Old and New Testament. Nehemiah and Luke.
The UMC will oppose everything this President does, no matter how wise. | 2019-04-22T18:04:48 | https://juicyecumenism.com/2018/05/08/churches-iran-nuke-deal/ |

Ursula Lindqvist, Kjerstin Moody, and David Jessup participated in the annual Sweden Symposium of the Association of Swedish Teachers and Researchers in America (ASTRA) held in Boulder, Colorado, October 20-22. This year’s theme was “Sweden in the World, the World in Sweden.” This was Professor Lindqvist’s final year presiding over the organization as president, so she was honored with a gift following the organization’s business meeting.
I am glad that GAC is still concerned about keeping its Swedish roots. To have Swedish roots is to have an anchor to a different time, when Swedes ventured to the new world. Our name was Anderson, but switched it to Ford to be less “immigrantish” in the 1920s. Sweden in the world and the world in Sweden. That’s great and it made me contemplate what Sweden has provided the world. | 2019-04-23T22:29:30 | https://provost.blog.gustavus.edu/2016/10/27/ursula-lindqvist-kjerstin-moody-and-david-jessup-scandinavian-studies/ |
Facebook is moving deeper into Craisglist’s territory with the debut of an online marketplace on Monday. The social network announced that it has created a dedicated destination, called Marketplace, where Facebook users can list items to sell and search for items to buy.
In 2015, Facebook started allowing its users to sell and buy items in Facebook Groups. In 2007, the company also rolled out a similar e-commerce feature called Marketplace, but it never took off.
But more recently, as the social network elaborated in a blog post on Monday, its billion-plus users are still using the network to buy and sell items. After the 2015 debut of the marketplace feature in Groups, more than 450 million people visit, buy, and sell under the Groups tab each month.
With the new destination, Facebook users will now see an icon that looks like a store on the bottom of the homepage of the app. When clicking on the icon, the user will be taken to the Marketplace, now displaying photos and listings of items that people nearby have listed for sale. Users can also search for specific items and filter results by location, category (i.e. electronics or apparel), or price.
When the user finds something appealing, he or she can tap on the image to see more information about the item from the seller. This includes the name and profile photo of the seller and where he or she is located. Desired items can also be saved for easy discovery later. If the user wants to buy the item, he or she can send a message to the seller directly from the Marketplace to make an offer.
But that’s also where Facebook’s involvement ends. Interestingly, the company is not handling payments or coordinating delivery. That’s all up to the seller and buyer. For now, Marketplace will be rolling out to Facebook users over 18 years old in the U.S., the U.K., Australia, and New Zealand on the Facebook app for iPhone (aapl) and Android (goog). The social network will be making a desktop version available in the coming months.
It’s similar in many ways to the way one would buy or sell something on Craigslist, or on new marketplace upstart OfferUp, which just raised a boatload of money. Like Facebook, OfferUp doesn’t yet make any money from its marketplace. Craigslist charges for certain types of listings, such as job listings. This even creeps into the territory of marketplace and auction giant eBay (ebay).
But unlike these companies, Facebook (fb) doesn’t need to make money from the marketplace. It already makes billions in revenue each quarter from advertising on its mobile apps and site. The social network is introducing this feature because it’s just another thing that allows you to stay within Facebook’s app instead of leaving to go to Craigslist or eBay. | 2019-04-23T05:53:34 | http://fortune.com/2016/10/03/facebook-craigslist-marketplace/ |
SEA BRIGHT — When Hurricane Sandy devastated the tiny borough of Sea Bright in October 2012, the town's mayor said the only way her community would be spared destruction from future storms would be to reinforce the stone and concrete seawall built decades ago.
After nearly two years of taking her message to state and federal officials, Mayor Dina Long’s requests for financial help have been answered.
With the two-year anniversary of Sandy’s destruction approaching, Gov. Chris Christie today announced major upgrades to that seawall — a symbol of the weak links in New Jersey's storm preparedness — that state and local officials hope will give residents peace of mind while delivering on the governor's pledge to build a continuous barrier along the entire Atlantic Coast of the Jersey Shore.
The Monmouth County borough — one of the most heavily hit by Sandy — will receive $8.5 million to repair and expand the seawall to protect against future storms.
Still, Christie noted today’s announcement was only one part of New Jersey’s ongoing effort to rebuild. With the second summer since Sandy struck about to fade, he stressed the state has more steps to take to prepare for similar events and protect its $40 billion tourism industry — even if a storm with Sandy’s power never again ravages the shoreline.
“We know that rebuilding the state is the most important challenge we have, and it’s a challenge that continues,” Christie said at a news conference in the parking lot Sea Bright’s municipal hall, which had been flooded in Sandy’s wake.
Christie touted that the Shore is in the midst of a successful summer 22 months after Sandy. He will be in Seaside Heights and Point Pleasant to remind residents and tourists that there are still a few weeks left to enjoy it.
"In many ways, I don't think our beaches have ever looked any better," Christie said.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers have already finished a federally financed $345 million restoration project from Sandy Hook to Manasquan. The Sea Bright plan is part of a series of 11 new coastal restoration projects that are underway across the state — carrying a total price tag of about $1 billion.
The new projects will not only focus on the Atlantic coast, but also the Delaware Bay coast, Raritan Bay, Sandy Hook Bay, and the tidal swatches of the South River and the Passaic River. Five of those projects are in the final design stages, with bidding expected in the fall and work to begin in the late fall or early winter.
“The key message you’ll hear about today is our commitment to resiliency,” Bob Martin, commissioner of the state Department of Environmental Protection, said at today’s news conference.
Christie praised Sea Bright as an example of that resiliency.
Sandy caused massive waves from the Atlantic Ocean to surge over and around the seawall, flooding the Monmouth County borough and damaging the wall itself. Part of the problem was Sea Bright’s downtown was not protected by a wall.
“A freight train of water barreled through our town,” Long recalled today.
Thus, this project will not only fix the damaged sections of the wall but expand it to fortify the downtown area. It will be financed by the DEP’s Shore Protection Fund and is scheduled to go out to bid later this year. Christie said construction is slated to begin next spring or early next summer.
But Jeff Tittel, director of the New Jersey chapter of environmental group the Sierra Club, said seawalls give “false hope” in protection from storms, and the state is wasting millions of dollars on projects like this.
Christie said there’s no way to no for sure if the new wall will stop waves from breaching the top.
"You can never predict what something would have been able to handle," the governor said. "You know, man-made structures are still man-made structures and nature is often a very, very difficult opponent in that regard. But, based upon the best information we have we hope it would have been able to."

This Friday the venerable Milele Roots will be taking over JJ’s Bohemia, along with special guests Road to Nightfall and ReverseFerret, in what promises to be one of the most rollicking feel-good parties of the season.
For over two decades, Milele Roots has been an icon of Chattanooga music, with their instantly recognizable blend of reggae and funk. A band simply does not enjoy that sort of longevity or consistent popularity without knowing how to throw down properly and the group’s staggering reputation is hard won and well earned.
No less impressive are Road to Nightfall and relative newcomer ReverseFerret. The combined talent and shared musicians blurs the line between whether JJ’s is presenting three excellent bands, or one supergroup of some of the area’s most talented players.
Come early, stay late, and go home feeling better than you did when you came. This Friday at 9 p.m., JJ’s Bohemia will be the happiest place in town. | 2019-04-24T14:30:27 | http://www.chattanoogapulse.com/music/music-feature/milele-roots-brings-the-funk-to-jj-s/ |
CAROLINE MOCKFORD’s sudden death, at the age of 57, on 5 March, has rocked the legal Establishment of the Church of England. Although she had been in post as Provincial Registrar for the Archbishop of York for only three years, her impact both in the Northern Province and across the wider Church of England had been enormous.
She was seen as a rising star in the ecclesiastical firmament. Hers was an unmistakable presence at every committee that she attended, combining sage insight and calm advice with sparkling good humour. At her funeral, in York Minster on 22 March, the Archbishop of York remarked on how her smile would light up any room.
Caroline had practised law in Lincoln for many years, specialising in wills, probate, trusts, and similar routine solicitors’ practice before being appointed Registrar to the Bishop of Lincoln. She held that post for six years, before moving to York in 2014, to become successively Registrar of the York diocese, and a year later Registrar of the Province.
From 2017, she held office as Registrar of Tribunals for the Northern Province, on occasion having to deal also with Southern Province matters. She held office as Secretary for the Convocation of York, which required her presence at General Synod meetings, as well as on occasions when the Convocation met separately. Her predecessor, Lionel Lennox, remarked on the very happy relationship that she sustained with him during and beyond these various transitions, a major tribute both to her professionalism and to her personality.
She was greatly loved by colleagues in the law, as well as by clergy and others across the C of E, many of whom felt privileged to have become her friends.
She will be sorely missed, but we “thank God for every remembrance” of his servant Caroline. | 2019-04-24T08:47:24 | https://www.churchtimes.co.uk/articles/2019/29-march/gazette/obituaries/obituary-caroline-mockford |

This recognition of epigenetic changes, which are fundamental to cancer initiation and progression, is occurring in the midst of a dynamic explosion of knowledge as to how the human genome is normally controlled, via chromatin packaging of DNA, to regulate gene expression in different tissues and during development.5–7, 11 For example, epigenetic processes play a fundamental role during normal embryonic development and adult-cell renewal. As such, these processes control the emergence of different cellular phenotypes, all with the exact underlying DNA sequence, which occur during development and differentiation. While this knowledge of gene regulation continues to grow rapidly, our understanding of the complete spectrum of epigenetic changes that are key to cancer development is expanding rapidly but could even still, relatively, be in its early stages. However, there is much that has already been learned, and this knowledge in the understanding of basic cancer biology and carcinogenesis already has palpable translational implications, which are discussed in this chapter.
Figure 1 Nucleosome structure. (a) Model of the double helix wound around the protein structure of the constituent histones as outlined in the text. (b) The schematic representation shows the organization of the H3/H4 tetramer on the DNA, followed by two sets of H2A/H2B dimers forming the histone core with the DNA (black line) wrapped around. The amino-terminal histone tails are shown extruding from the nucleosome core of the eight histone proteins.
Nucleosomes consist of ∼146 bp of DNA wrapped twice around an octamer of the core histone proteins, H2A, H2B, H3, and H4.13, 14 For functional mediation of gene expression profiles from DNA, nucleosomes must not only be properly distributed linearly along DNA, but must also be arranged into higher-order, multinucleosome structures13, 14 (Figure 2). These dynamics are mediated by chromatin-remodeling proteins, and the more widely and irregularly spaced the nucleosomes are in their linear placement along DNA, and the less compacted the higher-order structures, the more “open” the chromatin is and the more available the DNA is for active-gene transcription (Figure 2). This is often the case in areas in and around active-gene promoters. Conversely, the more regular and evenly the nucleosomes are spaced, and the more compacted their higher-order structures (Figure 2), the more “closed” is the chromatin and the more repressive for gene transcription. This latter configuration dominates most of the human genome, as noted earlier, to prevent unwanted gene expression and to facilitate chromosome structure.
Figure 2 Depiction of the packaging arrangement of human DNA (straight black line). Panel (a) shows, for normal cells, a more linear arrangement of nucleosomes (yellow circles with DNA wrapped around as outlined in Figure 1) depicting the “open” arrangement of chromatin around most gene promoters containing CpG islands (unmethylated CpG sites shown as white lollipops), which are being actively transcribed or can be induced to transcribe (large light-blue arrow). Exons 1–3 of the model gene are depicted by the numbered light-blue boxes. Regions of DNA within the body of the gene and extending beyond the third exon are depicted as being in the closed, transcriptionally repressed, conformation typical of the majority of the normal human genome. This closed structure is represented by the more packed, three-dimensional organization of the nucleosomes, and the CpG sites in the closed regions are depicted as being methylated (black lollipops). The text in yellow squares depicts the chromatin remodeling protein complexes, histone-modifying enzymes, and enzymes performing DNA methylation (DNA-methylation machinery), which are responsible for DNA packaging as discussed in the text. Panel (b) depicts the altered chromatin patterns present in a typical cancer cell with a switch in positions of the normal closed and open chromatin regions in the genome. Many closed regions now have an open chromatin with loss of DNA methylation, while a large group of gene promoters have assumed a closed chromatin with abnormal, CpG island DNA methylation and repressed transcription (large red X over the transcription start site depicted by the light-blue arrow.
The role of this DNA methylation19 is closely tied to the distribution of the CpG dinucleotide in human and other genomes. This is a nonrandom and uneven distribution in which there has been a global and progressive depletion of CpGs over evolution because the deamination of methylated CpGs results in changing the cytosines (Cs) to thymidines (Ts).7, 17, 18 Failure to repair these thymidines then results in transition of the Cs to Ts. However, there remains interspersed conservation of nondepleted, CpG-rich stretches (∼0.4 to several thousand kb) or the so-called “CpG islands,” which are particularly important to the DNA-methylation patterns.17, 18 These islands, especially when found in the 5′ end of about 50–60% of human genes,17, 18 remain non-DNA methylated, while the majority of the CpG′ sites in the remainder of DNA are methylated4, 7, 17, 18 (Figure 2).
The above shore regions are also differentially methylated between normal tissues, so the meaning for cancer per se, and especially as reflective of associated gene expression changes, is less clear than for proximal promoter, CpG island regions. Similarly, there is a building body of data for increased methylation in gene-enhancer regions, or DNA-regulatory sequences, which through binding of key proteins and histone modifications are master regulators of gene expression. These sequences can lie at variable, and often large, distances away from gene proximal promoters.39–41 De novo DNA-methylation changes at enhancers may also contribute key gene expression abnormalities in cancer and especially for increasing cancer-risk states.42, 43 While the theme of differential enhancer DNA methylation in cancer is under more and more investigation, the role of these changes, and their balance with gene promoter CpG island hypermethylation, is still being clarified.
One of the most intriguing themes to emerge over the past several years is the recognition that, in virtually all tumor types, one of the most frequent type of mutations is in genes encoding for proteins that establish and maintain the epigenome.3, 4, 7, 53, 54 While the exact implications of these remain to be defined, there are now several key links between these genetic alterations and either tumorigenesis, DNA-methylation abnormalities, or chromatin changes. One important example concerns the relationships between mutations in IDH 1 and 2 genes, and also in the TET genes, and DNA hypermethylation. As now recognized in low-grade gliomas in younger patients and in hematologic cancers,55–57 these mutations associate with altered DNA and histone-demethylation pathways. These can include changes in histone-methylation levels and a pattern of increased frequency of promoter region CpG island DNA hypermethylation, which resembles what was initially characterized, in a subset of colon cancers, as the CpG island methylator phenotype or CIMP.56–59 Much is coming to be understood about why the IDH mutations, especially, produce chromatin and DNA-methylation changes. The mutated genes lead to the massive accumulation of 2-hydroxy-glutarate formed from, and leading to depletion of, ketoglutarate.60–62 The latter is a key cofactor for multiple enzymes that help regulate and maintain key chromatin marks and the previously mentioned TET proteins that can protect against abnormal DNA methylation.63, 64 These changes are thought to incite, over time, a molecular progression from increases in repressive-histone marks and subsequently the above DNA hypermethylation.60–62 Recent mouse studies indicate that IDH mutations are drivers for early tumor-progression events65 by blocking normal differentiation of normal stem/progenitor cells and thus facilitating abnormal self-renewal and diminished lineage commitment and differentiation.57, 60, 66 Importantly, drugs directly targeting the IDH mutations have been developed and are now undergoing trials in AML and brain tumors.
Another fascinating set of mutations has been delineated in a pediatric subtype of brain tumor in a key repressive, histone mark itself. Thus, mutations in H3K27, present in only one allele of the multiple copies of histone H3, block the activity of the enzyme, EZH2, which catalyzes H3K27 methylation. Accordingly, the tumors have a marked loss of H3K27me3,3, 67, 68 and this is postulated to induce abnormal activation of genes to drive initiation and/or progression of the tumors.
There are some simple advantages that the detection of DNA-methylation changes in cancer allows over other molecular approaches. First, the overall frequencies of methylation changes appear to be greater in many instances than mutational changes.3, 7, 30, 69 This appears to be true for all major solid and liquid cancer types examined thus far, although the specific genes altered are different among tumor types. A second advantage of the detection of DNA-methylation changes associated with gene silencing is that this change is confined to the promoter region for many genes, making this alteration easily targeted for assays that can potentially serve as molecular markers for cancer. The large numbers of these genes allow for construction of gene panels for which DNA-hypermethylation markers essentially cover cancer genomes providing for high chance of marker detection in any given patient.72 The fact that the abnormality arises for many genes in early, preinvasive stages of cancer and for others later in progression allows for potential uses of such markers in cancer-risk assessment, early diagnosis, molecular restaging of tumors, and prediction of tumor behavior. Thus, the high frequency, early occurrence of such changes, and the ability to assay methylation of each gene with a single assay, facilitate the use of such approaches for the early detection of cancer. Examples of each of the marker possibilities mentioned earlier include those listed in Table 2. Thus, for cancer-risk assessment, detection of DNA-hypermethylated gene sequences in sputum DNA now holds considerable promise for predicting which individuals at high risk for developing lung cancer will actually manifest this disease within a defined period after initiation of marker monitoring.2, 73 Detection of colon cancer has been explored by detection of altered DNA methylation in either the blood or stool and these are emerging as especially useful when added to mutation detection.74–79 Detection of such genes in urine can potentially stratify the risk for, or provide for early diagnosis of, bladder cancer80 and in prostate biopsies for improvement in the diagnosis of prostate cancer.81, 82 Several of the tests, for stool, and prostate biopsies are now available to clinicians via CLIA-approved tests.
Another useful tool for the management of patients by medical oncologists is the possibility that DNA methylation in specific genes may affect the cancer-cell sensitivity to different therapies. For example, silencing of a DNA repair gene may increase likelihood of tumor response to DNA-damaging agents that would be repaired by this protein. The most clear example of this has been demonstrated for patients with the virulent brain tumor, glioblastoma, where detection of tumor DNA hypermethylation for the DNA damage-repair gene, O6MGMT, predicts for higher likelihood of response and post-treatment period of freedom from disease recurrence, for patients treated with the DNA-alkylating agent, Temazolamide.86–88 Other studies have suggested that sensitivity to cisplatin may be mediated by silencing of FANCF in ovarian cancer89, 90 and sensitivity of colon cancer to topoisomerase inhibitors may be mediated by silencing of the Werner syndrome gene (WRN).91 Recently, the promoter methylation of SMAD1 has been reported to predict resistance to doxorubicin, for patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DBCL).92 Low doses of DNMT inhibitors reverse the repression of this gene, and this was found to relieve the chemoresistance.92 These preclinical findings are being tested in a phase I clinical trial with early findings suggesting that the DNMT inhibitor used can prime for better chemotherapy responses.92 Before clinical use, all of these studies need to be confirmed in additional populations and ideally in prospectively evaluated patients. However, such developments might greatly aid in optimizing the therapeutic choices offered to patients, who only have one opportunity for first-line therapy. An ever-increasing number of larger and larger clinical trials seek to validate the marker approaches and push their incorporation into standard oncology practice. Finally, other DNA-methylation changes, such as losses of normal DNA methylation in tumor DNA, and changes in chromatin marks for active or repressed-gene function, will almost certainly appear as promising molecular cancer markers.
This type of therapy refers to cancer treatments based on the concept of reverting abnormal gene expression patterns toward normal as a means of cancer treatment. To date, two classes of drugs, which may achieve this goal, those which can experimentally induce DNA demethylation (5-aza-cytidine, azacytidine and 5-aza-2′-deoxycytidine, or decitabine) and those which inhibit histone deactylases (SAHA), have been approved by the FDA for treatment of the preleukemic state, myelodysplasia (MDS), and cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, respectively. Both azacitidine93 and decitabine7, 94–96 have shown clinical benefit, and most recently, in a randomized phase III trial, azacitidine has shown a survival benefit.97 Although, in both instances, these drugs achieve impressive response rates, and durable responses, in previously refractory diseases, it must be cautioned that their exact mode of efficacy remains to be proven—that is, they may not work clinically, solely, or partially—through the epigenetic effects, they mediate experimentally.70, 95, 98, 99 Thus, use of these drugs in other hematologic malignancies is the focus of many ongoing trials, and potentially promising results are being seen especially for the DNA-demethylating agents in acute myelogenous leukemias (AML) and chronic myelogenous leukemias (CML).94, 100 In addition, there is experimental evidence for synergy of DNA demethylating, and histone deacetylase inhibition, for re-expression of DNA hypermethylated cancer genes.101 Thus, multiple trials are exploring the clinical potential of using combination therapies with these agents. Most of these trials are joined with studies trying to examine whether DNA demethylation and re-expression of abnormally silenced genes corresponds with, or predicts, therapeutic response. Probably, over the next few years, all of these clinical studies will establish the true position of these drugs and their mechanism of clinical efficacy, in the clinical arena.
Work over the past decade, especially for DNA-methylation changes, has amply established that, from initiation through progression to advanced stages, cancer is a disease of epigenetic as well as genetic alterations. These studies, closely entwined with an explosion of basic knowledge about how chromatin constituents package the human genome to regulate gene-expression patterns, are providing a rich substrate for new cancer biomarker and therapy strategies. There is enormous potential for these strategies to enter usage in the cancer clinical arena over the next decade. | 2019-04-20T15:13:42 | https://clinicalgate.com/epigenetic-contributions-to-human-cancer/ |

If you are looking for ways to save money on energy at home or the office, solar energy is a great way. Solar energy will keep your utility bills down and it’s also better for the environment. The article that follows gives great tips and info about the benefits of solar energy.
TIP! When it comes to your efforts to rely on solar energy, take it one step at a time. Purchase a few solar energy lights for landscape lighting to help save energy and protect our planet.
The power you get will be determined by how many solar panels you have and their efficiency. A consultant can help you figure out just how much power you need as well as what panels are best suited to your needs. You could actually save money by purchasing a small number of efficient panels.
TIP! Don’t assume that solar energy involves full scale remodeling and ripping apart the roof. If you want to start small with solar power, you can begin with using solar power for your exterior lights and garden lights.
The efficiency of your solar panels will be dependent on their density. Getting high density solar panels may cost you quite a bit, but after a while they’ll pay for themselves because they produce more power. Look over the density of a few different panels prior to making the decision to buy.
Going with a solar panel system does not mean that you will be ripping off your roof. You can make small switches like putting in solar powered outside lights. These lights stay on all night and then recharge the following day.
TIP! In the event you only wish to use solar energy in part, you should examine some of the smaller scale applications available. There are two ways to go about it.
Reposition your panels during the year as the seasons change. If you have to have panels that are at a fixed angle, try to find the angle that will work best for both summer and winter.
You should have a backup energy source in the event that your solar panels malfunction. A generator is a good option, but you could also remain connected to the main power grid and draw power when your panels are down. If you choose a generator, make sure to test it often. You may want to consider keeping more than one.
TIP! You have to find a way to keep the energy your system produces. A quality battery is something that you should look into to facilitate proper storage.
Transitioning to solar power is not a decision to be take lightly, as it can be very expensive initially. It reduces costs and benefits the Earth. When you switch to solar, you will reap many positive benefits in your office setting or in your home. Even using just one of the tips you’ve read should serve you well.
Many people aren’t sure where they can learn about how to build solar panels. This article definitely has the wisdom that you seek. All you need to do now is put it into action.

to the PartOf class definition, then run manage.py syncdb. Django creates the necessary index with no interference to the rest of the schema. | 2019-04-22T16:59:04 | http://melwilsonsoftware.ca/parts_explosion_in_django.html |
The MS Office suite has matured over the years in terms of its features and functionalities. However, what has been always a concern with successive upgrades is the compatibility of new versions with the older ones.
Now, if you are using different versions of MS Office or collaborating with people who use a version of Office different than yours, then you are dealing with this issue on a daily basis. However, you’d be happy to know that you could reduce the risk of running into concerns by just remembering and practicing a few things.
Also See: Learn and understand the differences between MS Office 2013 and Office 365 right here.
Office 2007-2013 uses different files extensions when compared to Office 97-2003. They have an added ‘x’ in the end, which is an indication of the use of Extensive Markup Language (XML).
When you open a 97-2003 file in a 2007-2013 product, the file opens in compatibility mode. You can continue working in that mode so that you do not introduce things/features that are not supported.
Note: In compatibility mode you would not be able to use 2007-2013 features even though you are using the version of the software.
Ideally, if you are going to share your document with someone who uses 97-2003 you should continue working in compatibility mode.
If you are not going to share the lower version of the file and if you are on the higher version of the software, you should convert the file. That way you would be able to take advantage of the new features.
In order to convert your document, go to File -> Info -> Convert as shown in the diagram below. That way the original file will be converted and replaced.
Suppose you’ve been working on 2007-2013 and at the end of your work you realize that you need to share the document with someone who has 97-2003. While you were working you might have used features not supported by the lower versions.
In such cases, before sharing it is advisable to check for issues. That way you will mitigate potential risks of losing data and formatting on sharing. Click on File -> Info -> Check for Issues and then rectify things which the software prompts for.
If you opt to save the document as a 97-2003 document in spite of working on the higher version, the software will check for compatibility by itself. If it finds any, it will prompt the user.
Then sharing will never be a concern.
Cool Tip: Are you someone who does not have MS Office at all? Have you ever needed to open one such file? Worry not, you can open them without having MS Office installed.
These are the only few basic things that you need to keep in mind if your work demands collaboration with people working on different versions of MS Office. Just a few additional steps and you can actually save a lot of confusion that may arise due to compatibility issues. | 2019-04-19T20:49:36 | https://www.guidingtech.com/28828/different-versions-ms-office/ |

Making right placement of bamboo wall idea will make your house gets special atmosphere in general. No matter what, you cannot simplify the art role for whole house decoration step. You need to make sure that you prepare right direction for all the specification.

Gary Oldman, Helen Mirren and Jane Seymour headlined AARP’s Movies For Grownups Awards — where it was unilaterally decided that “Star Wars” is now a grownup franchise.
Maybe it’s just because all the young fans of the original are now qualifying for AARP, but “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” took home the top prize of the night for Best Movie.
The awards looked like a great time, and also got out so everyone could catch the early bird special for dinner. | 2019-04-24T09:59:51 | https://theblast.com/aarp-grownup-awards-star-wars/ |
When you come to my workshop, how do you see me? Do I seem all together? Do I appear to know what I’m doing?
I feel broken, torn apart, confused, hurt, a hot mess. I think that all of us may be broken in some way or another. For many years I functioned in the mode of the second picture, patched together with string, band aids, and bubble gum. As wonderful as staying home to raise my kids was, I lost a sense of who I was. My worth, value, and vision. I was constantly taking care of the needs of others while [mostly] ignoring my needs.
As my children grew older and left home, I began to “refind” myself. I think the process revolved around my personal faith, art, a community of women/friends, and starting to care for my needs more intentionally. My faith didn’t waiver but the other things did.
Although I’ve always enjoyed art, I am not a trained artist and for many years my pursuit of art centered around doing art projects with my kids and making Christmas gifts. At one particularly frustrating time in my life I needed an avenue for venting. I went to Goodwill and bought cheap plates and threw them against the back wall of my garage. While I don’t recommend this, the process was cathartic but I was left with a box of ceramic fragments. This lead to making my first mosaics. I began to see with new eyes, finding mosaic possibilities everywhere I went. My eyes were focused outward and I discovered beauty all around me.
There is something very healing about creating art. For me, it is discovery and process. Learning something new. Moving out of my box. Challenging myself. Creating something that won’t disappear as clean dishes do after a meal… It brings me peace. In fact, my friend Ra’Ood finds the process of mixing and pouring paint to be very meditative.
Art brings me peace and joy. I relax. Pablo Picasso said, “Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.” When I do art, I am renewed. I refill my cup so that I have more to give others.
If you need healing, peace, joy, think about coming to my workshop or picking up art on your own. Perhaps, it will lead to your own path to healing and wholeness. | 2019-04-21T22:26:50 | https://dennys-workshop.com/2019/04/02/today-is-all-about-me-and-you/ |

An international Thorium Molten Salt Charter under the World Nuclear Association is under contemplation.
The Thorium Molten Salt Charter would not be a top-secret nor geopolitically important document since inherent properties of fuel and reactors make the system highly unattractive to terrorists and rogue states.
Partners, customers and governments taking the oath of signing the Charter would be welcome to share burden of development and later to access the technology. | 2019-04-22T19:03:13 | http://www.torium.se/thoriumforall/ |

The PGA of America is moving its headquarters from Palm Beach County, Florida to Frisco, Texas, the ‘2018 Best Place to Live in America,’ where it will anchor a 600-acre, mixed-use development with an initial investment worth more than half a billion dollars. The PGA of America will initially employ at least 100 people at the Frisco-based headquarters. Under this agreement, two PGA Championships, two KPMG Women’s PGA Championships and potentially a Ryder Cup will be held in Frisco. This groundbreaking agreement is estimated to have an economic impact of more than $2.5 billion over the next 20 years. | 2019-04-20T06:26:45 | https://www.shirleymeyners.com/2019/01/24/pga-of-america/ |
Recently, I have been working a lot on Raspberry Pi server and as it had more functionality and useful data, problem of automatic backup became quite critical. As I am an active user of SkyDrive (OneDrive) I wanted to do a backup there. But after quick search it appears quite hard to do (if not impossible), so I decided to use Dropbox instead.
The first tutorial I found was this one from Dave Hope. Quite a nice script, doesn’t use any dependencies, but unfortunately I haven’t been able to run it (probably because of my lack of experience with Linux in general). So I decided to use Andrew Fabrizi’s Dropbox Uploader and write my own script.
1. Ok, so first ssh to your Raspberry Pi and download Dropbox uploader script to your home directory.
Script should successfully upload itself into Dropbox.
BACKUP_SRC="/home /var/www /etc /root /tmp/databases.sql"
echo -e "Backing up MySQL databases"
mysqldump -u $MYSQL_USER -h $MYSQL_SERVER -p$MYSQL_PASS --all-databases > "/tmp/databases.sql"
echo -e "Uploading archive to DropBox"
Now it is important to change some variables so this script better suits you.
First of all, if you don’t have MySQL database or don’t want to backup it, you have to remove /tmp/databases.sql from BACKUP_SRC and comment out this line by putting # in front of it.
If you have WordPress website on your Pi, than all posts/comments/etc are stored in MySQL databases, so you better to backup it.
BACKUP_SRC contain all folders you want to backup. I have put folders where by default apache websites and most OS settings are stored.
BACKUP_EXCLUDE contains folders which are inside BACKUP_SRC folders but you wont to back it up. For example I want to backup my home folder /home/pi but don’t want to backup /home/pi/Downloads folder which could be quite big.
BACKUP_DST contains folder where backup would be stored locally. If you don’t want store all backups locally, than add this line into the end of the script.
Note that I am creating folder with the number of the year. This is to help me manage all backups in the future. If you want you can also add month folder like this.
DROPBOX_DST is similar to BACKUP_DST and tells where backup would be stored in DropBox.
MYSQL_SERVER, MYSQL_USER and MYSQL_PASS are needed for MySQL database backup.
NOW is the file name for backup archive we want to create. It is good idea to use current year, month and date for it.
Finally rest of the script is straightforward. It would create sql script with all databases, archive all folders and files and finally send it to dropbox.
After you edit variables, make script executable and try to run it.
…and add this line into it.
This would run our script every Monday 5am. I don’t feel it is necessary for me to explain crontab format, as there is already a lot of good tutorials for this, for example this one from The Geek Stuff.
Well, I hope it works and you have your scheduled script running regularly to backup your precious data.
Thanks for the script. Very handy!
One correction on the backup script shown in the page.
If you don’t correct this, then the $BACKUP_SRC will be used as the –exclude= option and there will be no files backed up.
Everything goes swimmingly until I get to running the script.
Maybe it got corrupt when downloaded?
I was getting the same error message as you.
I opened the file (sudo nano ./dropbox_uploader.sh) and saw that using Alex’s command above had not mirrored it properly.
This cloned the entire project to a folder called Dropbox-Uploader. In there, the dropbox_uploader.sh file was correctly copied.
That’s a nice program! Can it be fully operational in terminal mode?
Hi.. Thanks for the detailed steps. Was able to get this working fine.
May I please know how to get the uploaded files back into the raspberry pi folder.?
Or you mean how you can access all uploaded files on RaspberryPi locally? In this case they are stored in BACKUP_DST folder, /var/backups/ by default.
Hi Alex Thanks for a great script. I got it to work and it does back up the folder that im pointing on but unfortunately there isn´t any files in the tgz-file in dropbox. When I unpack the file it has the correct folder-names but I cannot see any files in the folder. The folder that im trying to backup has another ownership than root. Could that be the problem?
Yes, permission is probably a problem. I guess you can either try to change permissions or run script with sudo? | 2019-04-23T12:37:10 | http://alexbelezjaks.com/automatic-backup-to-dropbox-on-raspberry-pi-tutorial/ |

This page contains information concerning the accountability of the various economic activities that can be made through the marketplace by using the profiles. iGreebo provides to the sellers a detailed economic report that shows monthly and annual details of incomes and costs for every kind of economic activity made through the master datas. Details for every kind of economic activity are listed below.
This page is provided for information purposes only and may contain errors, be out of date with tax obligations or do not conform to all individuals and companies types. iGreebo recommends users to rely on a professional of their country to ascertain the right terms of the declaration of the different incomes perceptible through the marketplace.
The sale of digital music and the earnings of production agreements are incomes related to the sale and the utilization of intellectual property protected by the copyright laws. Incomes from suggested music are proceeds arising from self-employment activities not exercised regularly which were not subject to withholding tax. Every subject involved in a sale receives its part of income on its credit immediately and automatically. The amounts related to this kind of activities can be reached by consulting the economic report. For subjects with VAT, these reports can be considered as VAT register for tax purposes.
On iGreebo you can only sell music that you've created and for which you are owner of the copyright. The sale of music is subject to specific conditions of sale that the users have to accept before the publication.
The iGreebo's Shop feature allows profiles to sell different types of products and is subject to specific conditions of sale that the users have to accept before the publication. The direct sale on the marketplace is only allowed to subjects with VAT number. Other subjects without this requirement can use the third party sale feature, which allows to assign the management of the sale process to a provider subscribed to iGreebo, that will share the earnings in the way agreed by the parties thanks to the negotiations. Every subject involved in a sale receives its part of income on its credit immediately and automatically.
The seller will issue a regular invoice or receipt for every sale of shop products through the marketplace. This document will be sent to the purchaser together with the good provided and is valid for warranty purposes in all the cases in which is required by law. In case of split payment caused by third party sale or sales network, the seller will issues an invoice or receipt just for its part of income that is declared in the order detail. The other part of the sale price is credited automatically to the various counterparties involved in the sale and will be accounted on their economic report. In case of withdraw or refund, the purchaser will receive back the total amount paid directly on the payment method used for the purchase.
In a third party sale are involved two profiles. The active profile is the seller with VAT number who phisically manages the sale process for the passive profile.

Disaster recovery is never an easy topic to discuss. However, with b2b IT Services, disaster recovery consultancy services allows us to help you design resilient, recoverable, failsafe systems in Swansea, Cardiff, Bristol and beyond.
While our superhero powers may not enable us to save the planet, we may just be able to help build a IT strategy that is resilient by design. Enabling you to be prepared should the the unthinkable occurs to your IT or data.
Not planning for disaster recovery? You’re not alone, but you are in the minority. Your business is one of 5% of organisations that don’t have any plan in place. However, despite 95% of organisations having a disaster recovery plan in place 27% of organisations still lost revenue in the past year because of an outage.
So, if you have no disaster recovery plan in place, or it is just not effective for you. Then it is time to ensure that you not only have a disaster recovery plan in place, but we can help implement procedures to ensure the integrity of your data and IT services.
Typically, there are two types of disasters; natural and humanmade. A natural disaster includes unexpected events such as flooding. A humanmade disaster includes employee sabotage, infrastructure failure or external malicious actors.
The most common forms of disaster outages for businesses include power outages, loss of internet connectivity, data loss and and hardware failure.
You may think they’ll never happen to you, but is it really worth the risk? We can help you assess the risks and proportionally build a plan for IT resilience.
If you’re not sure how watertight your disaster recovery plan is, then a disaster recovery consultation can get you on the right track. b2b IT Services offer disaster recovery consultations in Bristol, Wales, across the UK and beyond. During which, we’ll discuss all of the areas that you may not have considered and the how the risk of loss of IT services can be mitigated and reduced.
While we know businesses may not have the finances to put every measure in place. It is important to understand the opportunities to further protect your business. Furthermore, you can weigh up the costs of implementation compared to how much it can save your business if it comes to it.
When you consider that 41% of companies who experience an outage lose over £10,000, each aspect is well worth doing the sums for. Don’t want to get your head around it? Don’t worry; our experienced IT consultants will bring their depth of knowledge to the table.
One aspect that most companies don’t like to consider when planning for business continuity and disaster recovery is the budget. There is no hard and fast rule for your disaster recovery budget, this all depends on the role of IT and data in your organisation..
Ultimately it depends on how much your business can comfortably lose. Anything your business can’t afford to lose will need to be covered in your disaster recovery plan.
Not sure where to start? Get in touch with b2b IT Services to get your business the business IT continuity protection it needs. | 2019-04-19T14:15:48 | https://www.b2bitservices.co.uk/disaster-recovery-consultation |
Today South Carolina Baptist minister William L. Curry, born in 1836, is appointed as the chaplain of 50th Georgia Regiment.
A graduate of Furman University and with degrees from the Presbyterian Theological Seminary and the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary (all in South Carolina), Curry is well educated. Ordained in 1860, he sought appointment as a foreign missionary, but was deemed weak of health by the Foreign Mission Board in Richmond, and thus not appointed. When the Confederate states seceded from the Union, Curry responded to South Carolina’s call for volunteers. Signing up as a private in the 15th South Carolina, he witnessed the beginning of the war at Fort Sumter on April 12, 1861.
Upon his appointment as a chaplain, Curry remains the regimental chaplain for the duration of the war. “As there was no other chaplain in the command for a great part of the time,” Curry effectively serves as minister to the entire brigade.
After the war, he writes of his experiences as a Confederate chaplain.
I was appointed chaplain of Fiftieth Georgia about September 1, 1862, just as we were entering upon the first Maryland campaign. For several months the army was in such constant motion that little could be done besides occasional preaching.
Soon after the Fredericksburg battle, December 13, we went into winter-quarters. I then commenced pastoral work — visiting among the tents, holding prayer-meetings, etc. I commenced a sunrise prayer-meeting, which was attended, of course, only by the more earnest of the brethren, who were quite few in number, and kept it up for many weeks. I continued efforts of this kind — preaching, too, quite often for some six months, without any visible fruits of my labors. But about the expiration of this period, I could see serious faces in our little congregations, and we had new attendants at our sunrise meeting, and some who would hardly speak to the chaplain before would now make their way to his tent to inquire what they were to do to be saved. Oh, you can imagine what overflowings of joy I experienced at these tokens of the Divine presence. It was almost the ‘first fruits’ of all my feeble efforts in the cause of the Master. The number of inquirers increasing, I instituted inquiry-meetings, which were held at same place as the sunrise meeting. Perhaps I should have stated that this place was a certain tree some two or three hundred yards from the camp. We would open the inquiry-meeting with singing and prayer, and while the brethren would keep this up, I would take the anxious out to converse with them. It was not long before I had the privilege of leading a number of noble young fellows into the water, and among them one who afterwards was head and shoulders above all the others in zeal for the cause, in power for usefulness, and in humble, sincere piety. This was Brother Timothy Stallions, who, at his conversion, did not know his letters, though a man of family. He commenced to study, and in a few months, notwithstanding the hindrances and disadvantages of a soldier’s life, he was able to read the Bible quite readily, which he often did in our meetings, adding also frequently pointed and earnest remarks. He soon had a name in the whole brigade for courage and piety, which he bore untarnished throughout the war. He is still living, and when I last heard from him was preaching Jesus in his same quiet way — by his devout walk and his fervent exhortations.
The interest I mentioned above continued almost unabated for some six or eight months. It was a very quiet work, but permanent in its effects. Of course, our regular meetings were broken up when the army left winter-quarters. But all through the summer of 1863 I had the pleasure of baptizing a few at nearly every place where we remained any length of time, beside testifying to the conversion of others who united with other denominations.
Our corps (Longstreet’s) was ordered to Tennessee, you remember, in the fall of 1863, when till late in the winter we were marching and fighting almost without intermission. In the spring of 1864 the work commenced afresh. When I entered my regiment, and for some time afterward, there was no other chaplain present with the, brigade, and I had brigade services. This arrangement was continued after the appointment of other chaplains. At Gordonsville, Virginia, in the spring of 1864, our brigade was blessed with a considerable refreshing — about thirty from the different regiments making profession within two weeks. The most of these were baptized at one time, just in front of Dr. Quarles’s house, in a beautiful stream that runs by it. The occasion was quite a touching one. The appointment for the baptizing having been circulated, the citizens of the vicinity were present, and among them quite a collection of ladies. Dr. Quarles’s female school turned out. The ladies joined in the singing, and the bare sound of female voices brought tears to many a soldier’s eye.
When we left Gordonsville, which we did on the 4th of May, we plunged at once into the severest campaign of the war. The army lived in the trenches, as you know, all that summer. My brigade enjoyed several seasons of respite; that is, they would be relieved from the fatigue and danger of the front line, and would be kept in reserve in the rear. One of these seasons was protracted more than six weeks, during which time we held from three to five meetings a day. It was a precious season. The men were relieved from all duty, even guard-duty and cooking, so that we had nothing to do but hold meetings. A prayer-meeting at sunrise, an inquiry-meeting at 8, preaching at 11, a prayer-meeting at 4 for the success of our (Confederate) cause, preaching again at night, was the usual programme of the day. Our prayer and inquiry-meetings were held under a large, sweet-gum tree, about two hundred yards from the camp. We usually had from fifty to seventy-five brethren at these, not one of whom refused to lead in prayer, and not a few would interest us with remarks and exhortations. The preaching was done in the bivouac (we had no tents except such as the men carried on their backs). The religious interest of the brigade seemed more general than I had ever seen it before. I have looked around over the whole camp during preaching, and failed to see a single loiterer. Some forty or fifty made profession at this time, and I baptized them, or rather the most of them, in a pond, the only one in the vicinity, where we were exposed to the fire of the enemy; but not one of us was hurt on such occasions, though the bullets whistled most unpleasantly around and in the midst. Brother Campbell, of the Tenth Georgia, was my efficient co-laborer.
I have but few of my army acquaintances near me now. It will always be pleasant for me to testify to their piety and devotion in the army.
…. As well as I remember, over a hundred made profession of religion in the brigade after I entered it, who continued steadfast during the war and so far as I have heard from them are pious yet.
Curry’s account is one of many that are published after the war in J. Williams Jones’ Christ in the Camp (or, Religion in Lee’s Army). Relatively few Baptist chaplains serve in the Confederate Army, due to most Baptists’ refusal to accept government salaries for chaplains, and seemingly relatively little interest on the part of Baptist ministers (pulpit rhetoric notwithstanding).
After the war, William L. Curry moves to southwest Georgia where he settles into pastoral ministry. | 2019-04-24T16:42:27 | http://civilwarbaptists.com/thisdayinhistory/1862-september-01/ |

West Ashley Family Dentistry recommends that patients of all ages come in twice a year for a professional dental cleaning as part of comprehensive disease prevention. A dental cleaning performed in our Charleston dentist office can offer thorough removal of plaque from all tooth surfaces, preventing tooth decay and the development of gum disease. In addition to brushing or polishing your teeth, we will also examine your mouth to look for decay, gum disease, and any signs of other problems such as oral cancer.
Brushing and flossing daily between visits will help to maintain your oral health and reduce harmful bacteria in the mouth and on tooth surfaces.
A dental cleaning is generally a painless procedure during which your dental hygienist will clean all surfaces of the teeth. The first step will be to gently scrape away any plaque or tartar that has built up along the gumline or tooth surfaces, followed by a polishing using fluoride toothpaste. We may use the Cavitron ultrasonic cleaner to painlessly remove tartar with dramatic results.
The final step is a thorough flossing between all of your teeth to remove any food particles. During your routine visits and dental cleaning procedure, we can also offer personalized oral hygiene advice or demonstrate proper brushing and flossing techniques to use at home. Disease prevention is the key to enjoying not only a lasting smile, but a reduced risk for overall health concerns such as cardiovascular and systemic disease.
For patients who suffer from dental anxiety, even a dental cleaning procedure can be stressful. We take a compassionate approach to your needs as a patient and will work with you individually to identify the best way to calm your fears and enable you to feel relaxed. We offer sedation dentistry when necessary to help you restore or maintain your oral health. | 2019-04-19T02:33:32 | https://www.westashleyfamilydentistry.com/dental-services/dental-cleanings-charleston-sc/ |
As evidence of this phenomenon, consider the findings of Hujoel (1999).
This study selected a test population of 288 six-year old children that was divided up into different subgroups, one of which chewed xylitol gum on a daily basis over a two year time frame. At the end of this period the children's exposure to xylitol was terminated.
Over the course of the next five years (a time period that began at that point when the use of xylitol gum had been ceased), the children were periodically evaluated by dentists for tooth decay. Their findings were that the children who had had the xylitol exposure experience a 59% reduction in their tooth decay rate, as compared to the group of children who received no xylitol.
We want to make this point clear. The children who received this anti-cavity effect had chewed xylitol gum regularly for a two-year period and then stopped this activity totally.
Then, over the course of the next five years, a time frame when these children received absolutely no additional exposure to xylitol at all, there was a residual effect from having had their original exposure that provided a 59% reduction in cavities. Pretty astounding wouldn't you say?
The story continues, various teeth benefited differently.
When these researchers evaluated their data more closely, they noticed that the level of long-term residual protection varied for different teeth. And, in regard to this fact, it was the timing of the xylitol use that turned out to be the critical factor in determining the amount of protection that was afforded.
This study's findings revealed the following.
Residual long-term cavity protection effect provided for teeth that had already erupted prior to the use of xylitol. = None.
Residual long-term cavity protection effect provided for teeth that didn't erupt until one full year of xylitol consumption had been completed. = A 93% reduction in cavities.
Residual long-term cavity protection effect provided for teeth that erupted after two years of xylitol use. = An 88% reduction in tooth decay.
Let's recap this information too.
1) Amazingly, the simple act of regularly chewing xylitol-sweetened gum is capable of providing anti-cavity protection for children's teeth, even for several years after they have quit using it.
2) Mysteriously, this effect is only bestowed upon certain teeth, specifically those that don't erupt until at least one year after xylitol usage has been begun (including those teeth that erupt long after the use of xylitol has been ceased).
3) And, curiously, this same xylitol exposure does not provide this long-term tooth decay prevention for teeth that erupt before the first year of xylitol usage has been completed.
These mystical anti-cavity effects are easily explained in light of the following theory.
Research studies have determined that the initial bacterial colonization of a tooth's surface takes place at that time when it first erupts (first comes through the gums and is exposed to the oral environment). Once this initial colonization has taken place, these bacteria become the dominant inhabitants of the tooth's surface (such as in a tooth groove or pit) for the remainder of the person's life.
This means that the type of bacteria that initially colonize a tooth plays an important role in determining the life-long risk that tooth has for experiencing decay. Grooves and pits initially colonized by non-cariogenic bacteria (types of bacteria that can't cause cavities) typically will not be replaced by cariogenic bacteria later on.
Since the long-term use of xylitol is detrimental to the population of cariogenic bacterial living in a person's mouth, its use helps to insure that those bacteria that initially colonize a tooth's surface will be more likely to be non-harmful types.
After reading points 1,2 &3 I am wondering if regular use of xylitol by adults has much benefit. I don't have children that I would be concerned about passing my bacteria onto. Would regular use by adults reduce caries since their teeth are already colonized? Reduce the amount of plaque?
"Point #1 Research studies have determined that the initial bacterial colonization of a tooth's surface takes place at that time when it first erupts (first comes through the gums and is exposed to the oral environment). Once this initial colonization has taken place, these bacteria become the dominant inhabitants of the tooth's surface (such as in a tooth groove or pit) for the remainder of the person's life.
Since the long-term use of xylitol is detrimental to the population of cariogenic bacterial living in a person's mouth, its use helps to insure that those bacteria that initially colonize a tooth's surface will be more likely to be non-harmful types."
We'll refer you to a different page.
This page is focused on providing an explanation about why some studies have found a long-term effect of having consumed xylitol that extends long past when its usage has been ceased (an event that at face value would not be expected to exist). And yes, this benefit is created for people who were exposed to xylitol usage as children.
This page explains the general benefits of consuming xylitol (for anyone of any age) and how it creates this effect. | 2019-04-26T12:12:38 | https://www.xylitolpreventscavities.com/cavity-prevention/xylitol-long-term-effect.html |
This Episode Begins with Kicker walking through a foggy environment to a yellow glowing spot. The fog clears to reveal a huge snowy mountain, when suddenly kicker is awakened from his dream. He looks up on a laptop several mountains and finds the one that matches his dream and says he's discovered the newest Energon Point.
The next scene is of Kicker & Grindor exploring the snowy mountain of his dream, Strongarm is there as well, who seems nervous about being so far from the base camp. Strongarm returns to help the others haul the equipment. Some distance away we get a glimpse of Demolishor still playing over in his mind the events of the past encounter with Cyclonus & Tidal Wave, and he reiterates his doubts about Megatron being alive. We next see Unicron still being worked on by Terrorcons; Tidal Wave & Cyclonus are present as well. They are examining Unicron's remains in hopes of finding Megatron, which they do. They call out to him, but of course he is still dead. Cyclonus & Tidal Wave insist that the Energon be used to revive Megatron, but Scorponok suggests that they consult Alpha Q, Alpha Q sends Cyclonus & Tidal wave out to procure more energon, because he says that it will take much more energon to revive Megatron. Back on Cybertron, Rad & Kicker's Father, Dr. Jones, proceed to perform maintenance on Prime's new Powerlinx parts, they also ask that they receive the exact coordinates of the Energon Point as soon as it is located.
Back at the Energon Point, an argument erupts between Demolishor & Ironhide. Ironhide doesn't trust Demolisher because he was once a Decepticon. Hotshot tries to break it up, but Demolishor just walks away in disgust. Kicker, still scanning for Energon, is caught in a sudden blizzard and falls into a deep canyon. The Autobots realize they've lost contact with Kicker and Demolishor actually volunteers to go try to find him, even though he mostly wants to just be alone and away from Autobots. Ironhide is ordered to go with Demolisher, so he goes along as well.
Kicker has another flashback of his past. Kicker & his whole family are aboard the a spaceship in route back to Earth. His dad explains that they need tofind some more energon before they can complete their journey back to Earth. Kicker & his dad are next seen in a Rover type vehicle on the surface of a planet. Kicker's dad knows that his son has the special gift of being able to locate energon, as he uses it to quickly discover more of the energy source. The call in some Omnicons and a base is quickly set up.
Kicker then awakens from unconsciousness at the bottom of a deep cavern of ice. He's injured, and angry as he wonders if he'll make it out. The other Autobots continue to look for Kicker in the blizzard. Hotshot locates him and makes contact with all the Autobots both in the area, and back at Ocean City. The Autobots detected enemy signals converging on Kicker's location, so they leave to help him.
Out of the Blizzard however appears Cyclonus followed by Tidal Wave, and a fleet of Terrorcons. They attack and bury Hotshot in an avalanche; thedemand that thge Autobots turn over their energon. Kicker tries to ascend out of the canyon with the help of his Minicon, but it doesn't have enough energy to make it up all the way.
A partial avalanche however helps kicker get about ½ way up the canyon wall. Demolishor & Ironhide begin to attack the Terrorcons together. Hotshot unburies himself and joins them. Cyclonus & Tidal Wave appear before Demolishor however and he ceases his attack. Now the trial begins. Both sides begin to pressure him about loyalty until Cyclonus is distracted by a conversation from Kicker to Strongarm about locating Energon nearby. Strongarm is able to pull Kicker & his Minicon out of the canyon, but just as they do however a group of Divebomb Terrorcons swarms in for an attack.
Optimus & Co. arrive, though, to save the day. All the Autobots then assemble as Kicker leads the way to stop the Ravage drones from stealing all the energon from the Energon Point.
Back on Cybertron, Rad & Kicker's father are finally finished with their surprise and Optimus orders the recon team to withdraw to a safe location. Dr. Jones & Rad inform Jetfire that they are sending it over the Space Bridge to the Energon Point. To everyone's total disbelief it is a whole NEW Cybertron City, which descends on the mountain and destroys all the drones underneath. Scorponok shows up with reinforcements and orders the cowering Cyclonus to attack the new city. The Autobots enter the city, which is well fortified, as city defenses begin to clear the sky of Terrorcons. Scorponok and the others quickly retreat back to the void, but not before Signal Flare scans Megatron's Sword for duplication purposes. Again Demolishor is left alone, thinking about Megatron. He doubts even more that Megatron lives, because the Megatron he knew would have been on the front lines fighting along side his warriors. Elsewhere, Kicker is reminded of his memory of finding the first energon source with his dad, and how no matter what his father has always protected him and looked out for him. | 2019-04-23T14:46:09 | http://axalonunderground.angelfire.com/cartoon/synopsi/energon/ep1/eng105.html |

Just when it seems like all is lost, hope is fading and defeat is looming, God steps in and delivers His masterpiece. Time and again throughout Scripture God steps in with His great plan of salvation.
The day Jesus died and the day He rose again were days like no other, for during this time He won the ultimate victory and conquered all the powers of hell forever. He defeated, disarmed and made a public spectacle of them. He triumphed over all the forces of evil by the cross. He rescued us.
It was during this most momentous and pivotal of weeks in history, when God turned, what to man looked like utter defeat, into the most glorious victory ever to be witnessed in time and eternity.
Maybe you are facing some great test or trial, the outlook looks bleak, you have been backed into a corner and don't know what to do or where to turn, you seem to be staring defeat in the face. Today, the Lord of Glory wants you to know that He is with you and is able to deliver you. He is mighty to save (Zephaniah 3:17). Call on Him and He will not only defeat your enemies, He will vindicate you. You are His precious child and He will always come to your aid. Jesus is the Victor!
Prayer: Heavenly Father, Our eyes are on You and we put our trust in You for You are our deliverer. Thank You, Lord, for always hearing our prayer and coming to our rescue. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.

April showers bring May flowers, as the saying goes. May is meditation month, so our hard work and organizing thus far is coming to fruition with the beginning of two new group meditation offerings on Oahu. We also wanted to announce a few upcoming changes.
First, starting today, May 13th, and every subsequent second Sunday of the month, we will offer group meditation in ʻEwa Beach. Additionally, starting May 26th, and every subsequent fourth Saturday of the month, we will offer group meditation in Honolulu town. For more details about either event, please visit our Meetup groups for more information about ʻEwa Beach Meditation or Honolulu Meditation. Iʻd like to invite you (and your friends) to RSVP and come check out our new offerings.
Second, as we step up, Dr. Dean and first Sunday Meditation on the Beach are taking a break for the rest of the year. His last talk of the season on May 7th was regarding “The dharma: good in the beginning, good in the middle and good in the end”. If you missed it, or many of the previous talks heʻs given this year, there are mostly audio recording versions of his talks on the Meditation on the Beach page on our group website, and there are both audio and video recordings on Dr. Deanʻs Awakeism Blog for householders, pirates and warriors. His blog is where Dr. Dean will be posting new material while he takes his yearly sabbatical.
Third, as we go through the growing pains of bringing new programs to our group, I wanted to mention a couple of organizational changes to the executive committee. Josh Northcutt, whom I shared a warm posting about earlier this year, will be changing his role in our group from our Program and Education Coordinator to Advisor. Heʻs recently obtained a new job in LA, is integrating into the LA Shambhala Center, and his path is keeping him there. As he wonʻt be returning to Oahu as planned, weʻre empowering another Shambhalian as our new Program and Education Coordinator. Please take a moment to welcome and learn more about Kathy Southard as our new P&E Coordinator.
It will be some time before we can offer Way of Shambhala courses in Oahu. If youʻd like to start advancing in your practice now, let us please introduce you to Shambhala Online. This popular series of contemplative courses offers a complete introduction to the foundations of Shambhala Buddhism. The Shambhala Path emphasizes the development of genuineness, confidence, good humor, and personal human dignity. Course participants gain an experiential overview of meditation practice, wisdom teachings, contemplative arts, and physical disciplines rooted in the ancient traditions of Shambhala and Tibetan Buddhism. The sequential courses are interactive and open to all.
The Everyday Life Series is starting up again in August with the first in the five-part series, Meditation in Everyday Life, taught by Shastri Janet Solyntjes. The Basic Goodness series will also be starting up in October with the first in the three-part series, Basic Goodness 1: Who Am I? The Basic Goodness of Being Human, taught by Acharya Adam Lobel. Taking these online courses is an excellent way to deep dive into the Shambhala teachings.
The Kailua Shambhala Meditation Group relies on membership dues and donations to pay our basic operating expenses, and views financial generosity as part of our practice of creating Enlightened Society. The practical instruction for generosity is to consider what would feel like a “generous offering” for you, and give a little bit more.
Becoming a Shambhala member is a statement about your personal inspiration, curiosity, and commitment to the path of awakening. Anyone interested in Kailua Shambhala is welcome to become a member. Local membership includes membership in Shambhala, a global community committed to cultivating mindfulness, awareness and compassion―personally, culturally and within society. Learn more about resources available to members.

Over the years, a variety of practice types have developed and this month we’ll focus on exploring kasungship beyond a group or Center. Campaign practice includes extended periods of service, often organized around major visits and international tours by lineage teachers or recurring events, such as seminaries, assemblies, and other large practice events. Magyal Pomra Encampment (MPE) Practice takes place at the “gathering of the clan” at the drala grounds of Shambhala Mountain Center, Dorje Denma Ling, or locations in Europe and involves physically creating the Dorje Kasung mandala from empty ground, and proceeds into daily drill, slogan, and sadhana practice, study, physical work, and enjoyment of our special deep camaraderie. Gar Practice, or camp practice, is an intensified form of campaign or MPE practice, typically occurs at Centers, is organized around servicing major events, is located MPE-style on dedicated ground, and has its own unique mission. Left Out Practice can occur at any post and happens when your accepted duty means that you will miss something such as a talk, an audience, or a special event, resulting in a powerful experience of surrendering personal gain and exchanging self for others, as well as experiencing loneliness and tender heart, and ultimately realizing you’re not missing anything. Lastly, Command Practice involves being asked to assume a command position and taking on greater responsibility, providing guidance and leadership to others, setting the example of warriorship for those you work with, and exchanging self for others over and over again without expectation of merit or recognition–enlightened leadership. | 2019-04-23T02:01:45 | https://kailua.shambhala.org/kailua-shambhala-group-coordinator-aloha/ |
March 2, 2017: “Discover Navarra….Discover Your Style of Wine” – a food and wine demo presented by Chef/Owner Deborah Hansen of Taberna de Haro and April Cullom at Boston University Food & Wine Studies.
Guests from the culinary and wine studies classes, importers, retailers and journalists enjoyed a 4-course meal prepared by the students at Boston University’s culinary program with the instruction of Chef Hansen which were paired with 14 wines from Navarra. Not only did the guests learn about the D.O. Navarra and its diverse terroir and climate but also about the range of styles of wines found in the region, allowing guests to discover their style of wine and to better understand what their style of wine is and why. | 2019-04-21T12:43:54 | http://navarrawine.us/2017/02/wine-food-navarra-spain-deborah-hansen-april-cullom/ |

The Chicago Blackhawks are one of the original founding members of the National Hockey League (NHL). They have won the Stanley Cup a total of six times (three in the last decade) and are well-known for putting together a competitive side each and every season. The team also has one of the strongest support bases in the league (which is natural for the sports franchises in the Chicago area.) On this page, we have a look at the Chicago Blackhawks odds, standings and upcoming fixtures for this season.
The Chicago Blackhawks are consistently considered to be one of the best teams in the NHL. With the side having garnered three Stanley Cup wins in the last decade, it really isn’t that hard not to. That stated, the team has traded many of the players that were core members of the cup winning squad, including Niklas Hjalmarsson and Marian Hossa.
Ove the last two years, the Blackhawks have failed to make the playoffs and it seems that it will be going that way once again. Due to the ongoing poor performance of the team, Joel Quenneville (who has won three Stanley Cups with the Blackhawks) was fired and replaced by youngster Jeremy Colliton. Perhaps, this may spell a new era of victory for Hawks but only time will tell.
Overall, we recommend that bettors avoid placing any future bets yet on the Chicago Blackhawks this season. The team does not seem as if it is going to make the playoffs this year in any shape or form. With Colliton being new at the coaching helm, it may be wise to wait a few games to see if the side’s performance begins picking up. However, if you would like to place a bet on the Blackhawks despite all the sides flaws this season, we recommend using one of our recommended sportsbooks up above. | 2019-04-20T21:10:48 | https://www.gambling360.com/nhl/western/blackhawks/ |
