Once again some of the most challenging kids in Leeds lose a day's worth of education because their schools are closed. OK, not all schools are closed, but enough are to worry me. That some managed to open despite the challenges of the weather is surely a lesson to the others who found it too much of a challenge.
I govern in 2 Special Schools where many (most?) pupils are dependant on transport from the City Council - who have proved themselves unable to respond to the challenge today. OK the forecast was bad and there might have been a reasonable presumption of closure if there really had been the 30-45cm predicted. But that did not happen and it seems that there was insufficient time this morning to change the decision - our transport people are apparently only available from 0730 onwards! Now special circumstances require special measures and I would have hoped (dare I say "expected") that contingency plans would have been in place for either worse or better weather than expected.
Now I try not to be cynical, but it does sometimes appear easier to stay at home and plead bad weather than get off your **** and go out of your way to help some of the most disadvantaged kids in the area. Please everyone, let's do better next time. | 2019-04-21T20:33:11 | http://governingthoughts.blogspot.com/2009/02/schools-closed-for-snow.html |
Mexico City is recognized for its exciting culture, gastronomy and wide history. Home to the Mayans and Aztecs once, it now represents the biggest metropolitan area in the Western hemisphere with approximately 25 million people living there. With so much things to visit and do, here are some guidelines to help you make the most of the city on your arrival.
The currency in Mexico is the peso, with one peso equivalent to 100 cents. With many of the various coin denominations appearing very similar, it’s worth checking closely before you hand them over.
All banks will exchange traveller’s cheques and foreign currencies for a nominal fee, but it is wise for a longer stay opening a local bank account. You need to show your immigration documents and a photo ID for a regular account, and immigration form FM3 for a checking account. Don’t forget that your FM2/3 forms are essential –you’ll need these for a variety of purchases, such as houses , cars, or any other thing with requires a credit history check.
To obtain a visa for Mexico, you are required to contact the embassy of Mexico in your home country. A visitor visa is granted for a maximum of 180 days if the visitor does not have a restricted nationality, whilst those with a restricted nationality can stay in the district for 90 days only.
Those expats thinking of a longer relocation should get a Temporary Resident Visa. This Visa cannot be issued in Mexico, unless you are exchanging an existing FM3 visa. Although there exist two exceptions: if you have near family in Mexico or if you apply for residency for humanitarian purposes.
Mexico is the home of tacos, tortilla chips and burritos, but it has much more delicious things to offer, and although you can venture to a Mexican restaurant on any other street in the world, nothing is the same as the real experience. If you don’t know where to start, embarking on a popular food tour which will take you to all of the best eat-outs in the city could be a good idea.
Like many other places, it’s important to drink bottled water as opposed to water from the tap. It would be better if you don’t eat food acquired from street vendors and avoid dairy products unless you know they have been pasteurized. But don’t be worried as the restaurants of Mexico City have a incredible selection of food on offer and you can always wash it down with a margarita or two.
Spanish is the official language in Mexico City, although most fine-dining restaurants and some public places will speak also English or have a bilingual representative. It may be strange, but many residents speak ‘Spanglish’, a local language, a mix between Spanish and English.
The first time you meet a local for don’t be alarmed if you are greeted with a hug. This is a friendly mode of welcoming you and saying hello. It’s also important to note that Mexicans are warm and sociable and may initiate friendly physical contact – which is something very normal. | 2019-04-26T08:26:26 | https://www.crownrelo.com/intl/en-au/article/top-tips-for-moving-to-mexico-city |

The next stage of work on the $1.66 million Hampshire Road upgrade will begin in early 2019.
The upgrades will include new traffic signals, bike lanes and lighting along the northern end of Hampshire Road.
Brimbank mayor Lucinda Congreve said the works will cater for the rapidly growing suburb.
“This project will significantly improve safety for pedestrians, cyclists and motorists in the fast-growing CBD of Sunshine,” Cr Congreve said.
The works will focus on the area between Ballarat Road and the Brimbank Community and Civic Centre.
Some temporary road closures will be needed to complete the works. Drivers and pedestrians are asked to look out for and follow detour signs.
Access to shops, businesses and residences in this stretch of Hampshire Road will be maintained throughout construction.
The works build on already completed upgrades to Hampshire Road, which took place between Devonshire Road and the Sunshine train station and between Service Street and the man lifting cow statue. | 2019-04-20T17:27:08 | https://www.starweekly.com.au/news/more-work-on-hampshire/pub/brimbank_north_west/ |
In the latest episode of The Flash, All Doll'd Up, we see Ralph aka Elongated Man swinging over buildings, throwing arms around like Spider Man does his web, while carrying Iris on his back. Just before that, he said he saw this in a comic book. It sounded to me like a tribute to Stan Lee. Am I right in thinking that, or is this just a coincidence?
I'm going to go out on a limb and say no.
Stan Lee died on 12 November, and the episode premiered in the US on 13 November. There is no way they could possibly have rushed out such an indirect, CG-intensive tribute in such a short space of time.
Most likely, the episode was written months ago, the scene is a reference to Spider-Man rather than Stan Lee, and the fact it aired only a day after his death is just a tragic coincidence.

Burglary, Theft & Possession of CDS: On February 26, 2019 at 2:12 a.m., officers from Pequannock and Lincoln Park Police Departments responded to Slingerland Avenue in Pequannock on the report of someone breaking into cars. Upon Ptl. Christopher McIvor’s arrival he spoke with the caller who stated that the actor was entering unlocked cars and rummaging through them. The caller indicated that the actor, who was a male dressed in black clothing, ran from the scene. A short time later, Lincoln Park dispatch received a call from a citizen on Anthony Boulevard who stated a male dressed in black clothing was on their property. Several Pequannock, Lincoln Park and Fairfield Police Officers established a perimeter around the area while a K-9 unit from the Morris County Sheriff’s Department responded to assist in tracking the subject. During the search, Sgt. Glenn Grune of the Lincoln Park Police Department observed a vehicle being operated very slowly in the area of Ryerson Road and Comly Road.

CHICAGO (AP) — Spencer Dinwiddie scored 27 points off the bench and made a critical defensive play in the final seconds, lifting the Brooklyn Nets over the Chicago Bulls 96-93 on Wednesday night for their seventh consecutive victory.
Jarrett Allen had 16 points and 12 rebounds for the resurgent Nets (15-18), who have put together the NBA’s longest active winning streak on the heels of an eight-game skid. Brooklyn was coming off a 115-110 victory at home Tuesday night over LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers.
Kris Dunn scored 24 points for Chicago, which has the worst record in the league at 7-25 after dropping 12 of its last 14. Bobby Portis added 16 points and 11 rebounds for the Bulls before exiting in the final minute with an apparent leg injury.
Chicago led 93-92 before Joe Harris put Brooklyn ahead to stay on a floating bank shot with 43 seconds left.
Brooklyn entered averaging 121.5 points per game during the winning streak, but points were tough to come by in the first half.
Chicago held a 27-22 edge at the end of the first quarter before the Nets rallied for a 40-39 halftime lead despite 6-for-18 shooting in the second period. Dinwiddie had 10 of his team’s 18 points in the second on 3-for-4 shooting, including 2 of 3 on 3-pointers.
Both teams stepped up the offensive production in the third quarter and the score was tied at 71 entering the fourth.
The Bulls picked up their defensive intensity early in the fourth — including some full-court pressure — to force Brooklyn into a few sloppy turnovers. The result was an 86-80 Chicago lead midway through the quarter, but the Nets answered with seven straight points to regain the lead.
Bulls: F Jabari Parker sat out a second straight game because of a stomach illness. Parker entered third on the team in scoring at 15.2 points per game, but he was taken out of the regular rotation last week. . C Robin Lopez was fined $25,000 and Dunn $15,000 by the NBA for their role in an altercation during Monday’s 121-96 loss at Oklahoma City. Raymond Felton and Dennis Schroder of the Thunder were each suspended one game for leaving the bench area during the scuffle. | 2019-04-20T12:35:28 | https://newyork.cbslocal.com/2018/12/19/dinwiddie-scores-27-points-as-nets-top-bulls-for-7th-straight-win/ |

The New Tradition Chorus is an award-winning men’s barbershop chorus located in Northbrook, Illinois. Chartered in 1982, this Illinois District chapter of the Barbershop Harmony Society has a long-standing reputation for delighting audiences through exciting harmonies and memorable performances of songs spanning decades and genres.
Through a cappella performances of diverse musical styles, the New Tradition Chorus strives to delight audiences and enrich lives through song. The chorus is committed to helping men who love to sing become the finest performers they can be, both as individuals and as members of an ensemble dedicated to making and sharing great music.
We sing at nursing homes, and hospitals as well and organize a youth program (youth in harmony) that we sponsor every year where we work with a high school to educate students in our style of music . Last year we initiated a community 6 week “Free Singing Lesson” program to the which welcomed men as well as women.
My cousin, Henry Diettrich (Hank) sang with your choir. I recently visited his wife, Barbara, and we were talking about the choir and I found it on YouTube. Well, the other day I had Pandora on my SmartTV and I heard New Tradition singing Christmas Carols. I said to myself, I have to get a CD. I received one today, America. Love it. Wish I had seen Hank singing when he was alive.
Glad you’re enjoying our ‘America’ CD, and we hope it will carry on Hank’s memory in your family. Best wishes!
I attended your concert this werkend and was blown away. Have been searching desperately for your recording of “I have Seen the Light”. Can you help me?
Sorry for the delayed reply, and thanks for your kind thoughts! At this time, we don’t have a recording of “I Have Seen the Light”, but if you visit one of our November rehearsals we’ll sing it just for you!
See you at our Spring Show!
The last thing that Dan said at the end of rehearsal on Saturday was “If you put that on the contest stage, I’ll be happy.” The chorus did and he was…and so was everybody else! As the curtain opened, the chorus was greeted with rousing applause, hoots and hollers. Then, the electric performance ignited the crowd! It was a banner day for the “new” New Tradition winning the Most Improved award, the Most Entertaining award and earning the right to represent the Illinois district at International. Congratulations!
Hope to see you at the New Tradition Spring Show the first weekend in June 2017!
My husband and I just watched your performance on WGN this morning. We thoroughly enjoyed it!
You are excellent! Brought tears to my eyes, Proud to be an American is one of my favorites. We live in the Chicago western suburbs. Do you have a schedule of your engagements?
Thanks, Matt Owen! Check out our Facebook page, and you can post some of your photos and memories there!
The new site looks fantastic! I hope to be singing again with all you guys when I move back to the Chicago area later this year! | 2019-04-25T14:39:57 | https://www.newtradition.org/newtrad2012/ |

Whenever there is an opportunity for growth and development, there is always a room for risk. In life, you need to embrace risks. You need to welcome them, face them and grow through them. You must be open to them because you always need to learn new things from time to time. Risk is a part of this fallen world, and so expect them. They will always come. In fact, the Lord uttered the very words to man after he fell to sin that “thorns and thistles shall the ground bring up to thee… ” So, expect thorns, expect discomforts.
When unfamiliar things come, there is always a possibility of failure, that’s risk. Risk breeds fear, and fear is not comfortable. Because life has so many unknown, life breeds many fears. To many people, it could be the fear of death, or the fear of being unheard, or rejected, or bankruptcy.
If you are in a new place, or you talk to a new person, or use a new tool, or start something new, there is the displeasure of being unfamiliar. But nevertheless, discomfort breeds experience, and experience overcomes more fear.
Fear is not something we always want to hang around in our world, we always want to be in our comfort zone. But although risk is not desirable, it is necessary. Risk always go with opportunities. Without taking those opportunities, there will be no room for growth.
Open up your heart, be a person who has a big heart. Open up, don’t be hypocritical but true. When opening up yourself, there is a risk of being vulnerable, of being rejected, or prone to be abused. When you try to love, there is a risk of not being loved again. But will these hinder you? Do you stop trying when unfavorable things arrive? Without facing the risk of being rejected, you will also not see the joy of being loved back. Without trying to go the extra mile for a person, or showing your concern, yes, you saved yourself from shame or rejection, but you missed the sweetest part of seeing the fruits of relationships. Without risking to leave, you were saved from many burdens, but you miss the beautiful sight during that trip. Without taking the risk, there will also be no possible way for you to see the better heights. Without the courage to lose sight of the shore, there will be no such thing as a discovery of new lands.
Although risk may lead to failure, it may also lead to success. And that success tastes better if you have been through the risk with others, and so you share the joy together, develop together and grow together.
The great example of placing so much a risk is Christ. He commended His love towards a sin-loving people, He gave Himself to a world who do not even seek Him, but still He manifested that love. He suffered for the evil which He did not do, He was crushed by God’s wrath for the sins he did not commit, in order to glorify His Father and to save a world who don’t even know Him, in fact, a people who even killed Him. And that’s us, we are a rebellious depraved humanity and we have a God who loves without condition, He gave without expectation.
It makes the story exciting. | 2019-04-21T10:28:02 | https://bryanvillarosa.com/dont-be-afraid-to-take-risk/ |

I do plan on stopping by my local AT&T store to pick up an iPhone 3GS but don’t expect me to show up any earlier than 3pm. I have a pretty good feeling that supply will be able to keep up with demand this time around.
I think most people are expecting it to be a mad house at AT&T and Apple stores but I don’t see it that way. Not only is the iPhone 3GS not that big of a jump from the 3G but the people who would be waiting in line early in the morning to get their hands on one probably pre-ordered theirs. And, if that’s the case I expect the store to be a little crowded early in the morning but later on in the day I think they will still have devices in stock and crowds will have subsided.
But, honestly, if I’m wrong it isn’t that big a deal. Although I’m excited about the 3GS I’m not launch day excited, if I pick it up a day or two later there’s no harm done, I’ll still get the device and will be just as happy with it then as I would be to get it on launch day.
Here’s a quick recap, I’m going to stroll into my local AT&T store at around 3pm and see if they have any left in stock, if not I’ll probably just reserve one to be picked up at a later date.
Update 6/19/09: Erica Ogg, writing for CNET, seems to agree with me about the crowds for the iPhone 3GS. | 2019-04-24T16:18:11 | https://initialcharge.net/2009/06/my-iphone-3g-s-plans/ |
Clicking on the image above will take you to a demo of my WordPress theme-in-progress, Theseus. Of course, depending on when you read this, it might lead to the finished theme. Then again, you may be reading this farther in the future than I’m anticipating and the link will instead lead to a page extolling the virtues of our new Martian overlords. In that case, all hail Theseus, Emperor of Mars!
And, in a fit of lazy-clever, I’m using opacity to modify color (sorry IE, your preview will look different). I’ll change it in the final release of course, but it makes my life easier when I haven’t fully settled on a background color.
Anyway, I’d appreciate it if you could check it out and let me know what you think. Thanks!
Update: Theseus is finished and ready for downloading.
You are really cranking out some awesome themes Ian! I love the search in the header.
Thanks, Will. I feel like I’m playing catch-up, though. And besides, I want to appear useful to future Martian invaders. You know, if they’re into blogging and stuff.
As I continue to look all over the net for a new theme for my site, I have to say that, consistently, it’s yours I keep returning to. This, for one, is utterly beautiful. And as for the Martian invaders, they have given up and gone home; they never liked the idea of blogging, anyway.
Thanks, UW. Tweeters are from Mars, Bloggers are from Venus?
Nice work, Ian! You are the single-column Jedi, probably good in case the Martians are hostile.
“The single-column Jedi”! Yes! Thanks, David.
My next theme will more than likely be a two-column theme, though.
I love Lucida. By the way, for this theme I’m using the Lucida Hybrid Alternative.
The theme is simply awesome! Although I need to figure out how to display pages with a parent – or sub pages cleanly. Currently the top nav has no reference to the child pages that I have published..
Sorry if this is completely the wrong place to post this type of comment.
i have a question regarding the archives page… if i click on either a category or a month… i would like the next page to be a list of posts from that category or month… not a single post.
is there a way to do this? i’ve done some digging around but i don’t want to mess with the code too much.
I have a doubt can the feature entry be static page? if yes how to do? | 2019-04-20T18:43:38 | https://themeshaper.com/2008/02/02/wordpress-theme-preview-theseus/ |

"We continued and finished comma exercises, moved on to semicolons and other punctuation and mechanics exercises - the student asked for more practice with semicolons, but was comfortable with distinguishing commas and semicolons. We plan to finish mechanics during next session and move on to stylistic exercises soon. "
"The student worked on contractions and capitalization. She still needs to practice irregular contractions such as won't (will not) and capitalizing states and proper names. The student also practiced her addition and subtraction. She is getting quicker with adding basic numbers such as 7+4, and has a good concept of carrying numbers. She is getting better at subtraction, though it appears that she has not yet learned the "borrow" concept. "
"Today I worked with the student on his grammar homework and we did a few grammar worksheets. Overall, he has a good grasp on grammar but still needs some practice. This includes identifying parts of speech and some parts of punctuation."
"The student and I split our time between literature and history. We were able to create a comprehensive outline for an upcoming English essay. He should be prepared to write about the visual production of the play. The remainder of our time was used to discuss the precursors to the Industrial Revolution in Britain."
"In advance of our session, I'd given the student some documents that summarized the key parts of some of our recurring lessons, i.e. -- charts to help memorize parts of speech, as well as grammar rules and concepts. It's my hope that by having that information in one comprehensive form, he will be able to review it easily between sessions. I quizzed the student on parts of speech, parts of the sentence, phrases and clauses, fragments, run-ons, and comma splices. I recapped the major punctuation marks and how they're used; I ran through examples of verb tense, subject-verb agreement, pronoun-antecedent agreement, as well as how to conjugate basic action and linking verbs. Toward the end, I had him do some actual writing -- exercises we'd done before -- including reading-and-summarizing, as well as crafting sentences that were grammatically stable and which utilized all the parts of speech." | 2019-04-25T07:54:15 | https://www.varsitytutors.com/waltham-writing-tutoring |
Tulsa COG7 had a booth at the Tulsa State Fair way back in the early 1980s. This took a lot of work and financial resources and after a few years the Fair Booth project was dropped. Like many small congregations direct Evangelism efforts were not as much of a priority as they should have been over the years. So in 2010 we decided to do another booth at the Tulsa State Fair. This time we decided that the focus would be only on sharing the "Good News" of what God has done for us through His Son, Jesus Christ. We would not be "recruiting" for our local church congregation and would, in fact, minimize our name and doctrines.
We decided to create a newspaper to hand out at the booth. The newspaper would have the big headline of "EXTRA! EXTRA! Read All About it!" The front page article would compare the Good News we have to offer to that which the newspaper boys would cry out on a big event such as the end of World War II. Other articles in the newspaper would share the Good News in different and interesting ways and include a Crossword puzzle, cryptogram, etc.
Of course, with a new project like this the big question is how many newspapers to have printed? We decided a big goal would be to give out 3000 newspapers. However, we discovered that many people seem to view this newspaper as something of value- they wanted it! So early in the Fair we realized we weren't going to have enough and ordered 2000 more. All 5000 were given out before the 2010 Fair ended!
We had a 15ft x 10ft booth with an aisle on two sides. We tried to have 2 people in the booth most of the time and gave out Newspapers from the desk area and the opposite corner. Part of the Newspaper opening article was on the back wall along with a couple of headlines for other articles. We had an area for guest seating and a projector that displayed onto the back wall. We projected slide shows with interesting cartoons, facts and curiosity items. At other times we would show the "Why Christianity" video from Way of the Master ministries. The projection methods didn't seem to attract as much attention to the booth as we thought it would. The Fair is a busy place with lots of distractions. The video just wasn't enough competition, even though the material we showed was very good.
We also utilized the bottom of our back wall with a full length marker board. The plan here was to have kids write/draw on the wall what "good news" met to them.
The theory was that this would attract families to stop at the booth and the kids could work on the wall while the staff worked with the adults.
This turned out to be true and very effective. Fun for the kids and made the staff more open to the parents. Some of the kids were pretty creative and many were also good witnesses of the gospel of Jesus Christ!
COG7 Tulsa believes this was a very successful outreach project. It got a lot of church members from several churches involved in getting out of their "comfort zone" and sharing the Good News. In subsequent years we have continued to take on Tulsa State Fair Booth projects but have changed from the somewhat passive "would you like a Good News newspaper?" to a more interactive approach that keys off of the Way of the Master "Good Person" test against the 10 Commandments. | 2019-04-20T08:21:18 | http://www.goodnewstimes.org/fair-booth.html |

When you’re lying in bed and ready to sleep, do you wish someone would turn out the lights? Maybe you’re fancy, and say “Ok, Google” or clap your hands. For the rest of us, something that we all have by our bedside is Postman.
Let’s see how you can turn off your lights with Postman.
I’m using the Nanoleaf light panels. You could also try something similar with a smart light bulb accessible through an HTTP API, or roll your own with an Arduino server and addressable LEDs.
First things first, I didn’t want to build my own app. I intended to use Postman as the HTTP client to tinker with the light panels. A lot of folks use Postman like this, to poke at something to see how it works. I planned to use Postman to spin up a quick proof of concept, and if that worked out, I might do something more.
Now I’m not a hardware or IOT expert, and only know the basics of local networking. And so, I spent the better part of a weekend trudging through various smart device forums and sifting through the Nanoleaf developer documentation just to get started.
During that weekend of drudgery, I came across a number of developers in the forums who were using Postman to try out their requests. I wished with all my might that someone had already created a Postman collection to help me get started more easily, but that was not the case.
Fortunately, Charlie was there to provide some moral support.
When I finally got started, I browsed some of the requests documented on the Nanoleaf developer portal (requires sign in). I copied one of the requests from the Nanoleaf portal, pasted it into the Postman app, sent the request, and inspected the response. This was great, but I wanted to try out more!
It was really tedious copying and pasting everything into Postman. My OCD quickly kicked in… and before I knew it, I documented the entire Nanoleaf API as a Postman collection.
A Postman collection is a great way to organize your thoughts and communicate with other people about an API. At Postman, we say a collection is an executable description of an API because you can import the collection into your local instance of the Postman app and start interacting with the API right away.
I dreamed about all the sweet karma I would get from these grateful developers for creating a Postman collection, or at least I could save them from the frustration I encountered ?
Besides just creating the actual Postman collection, there’s a bunch of other stuff you can do inside the collection to help document the API.
Add a Quickstart folder containing a series of requests as an example use case.
Jot down descriptions in markdown to the collection, folders, requests, and parameters to explain each in deeper detail and outline required variables.
Use these descriptions to introduce the required and optional steps, explain new concepts, and communicate other important things to your users.
Save example responses for each request so that if you’re offline, you can still see what the response should look like.
As my energy started flagging, I published my documentation with a final 2 clicks. And lastly, I created a Postman collection template so other developers could use benefit from my hard work and search for this collection from inside the Postman app.
Check out the Nanoleaf collection documnetation, and perhaps you’ll find it illuminating too ?
I wanted to the sequence of Quickstart requests to mirror a new user’s typical workflow, and so I decided to add some basic scripts using postman.setNextRequest to the requests to create some branching logic if someone wanted to run the entire Quickstart folder using the Postman Collection Runner.
The last thing I added was a few test scripts and log statements to catch any errors and give me more visibility into what was going on.
Next on my list, I might build out some other simple workflows with tests and scripts. For example, if I wanted to be notified every time a new team signs up for Postman, I could add a webhook to the Stripe API to light up the Nanoleaf in the Postman office. I could even pull the new team’s organization colors and update the effect that displays on the Nanoleaf. The possibilities are endless!
Next Next post: Accidental delete? Don’t panic – collections are now recoverable! | 2019-04-19T17:00:32 | https://blog.getpostman.com/2018/06/22/postman-a-beacon-of-hope-in-a-world-of-api-darkness-%F0%9F%92%A1/ |

Lips Touch: Three Time is a collection of beautifully written novellas / romantic fairy tales for (young) adults. Exquisite prose, archetypal characters, only slightly marred by the fact that everything is over-prettified to the point of near-Disneyfication: love, in these tales, is a blush-inducing magical thing between Adonises and Goddess-like maidens, with just the right shot of lust to be sensual, yet safely pre-watershed literary programming.
Love in this book is an expression of aesthetic beauty, rather than anything even remotely connected to affection and real emotions. This fits with the beauty of the prose and the general worship of all things beautiful, but it also means, as well-written as the tales are, they are ultimately incredibly shallow and quite hollow, as if one were reading a story set inside a universe created for advertising Coca Cola or fashionable clothing or perfumes or acne cream. But then, these are tales about beautiful youngsters, for beautiful youngsters (and those who wish they were).
Nothing is more important or valuable than beauty, in these tales.
Still, enjoyable to read & the writing voice is beautiful. | 2019-04-26T06:17:00 | http://www.bastianbalthasarbooks.co.uk/2014/04/lips-touch-three-times-by-laini-taylor.html |
Everyone loves a reboot, right? What could possibly go wrong?
A long time ago, in a galaxy much like this one, there was a rag tag crew of misfits who joined forces and created mayhem each week. They were known as the League of Extraordinary Bloggers, and their impact is still felt to this day. As the fearless leader of this group, I’ve been toying with the idea of relaunching the group with a few adjustments to accommodate the social media-driven world that we live in today.
For those new to the game, the League is a weekly writing/photography challenge designed to boost your creativity and interaction with fellow pop culture fans, while also increasing your online presence in the process — think of it as an adrenaline shot to the heart of your online presence. Each week, a topic is posted here on Cool & Collected, and then it is your job, if you choose to accept the challenge, to come up with your own take on that topic. If you write a blog post, you should link and promote some of the other bloggers who have also contributed that week.
One big adjustment that I want to make is to ensure that we can loop in all those awesome folks on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, SnapChat, Pinterest, and any other social media platform that’s out there. I’m not sure what will be the best way to accomplish this, other than with a hashtag or two, but I’m open to ideas.
So, let us proceed to lay waste to the dark corners of the internet and carpet bomb the world with our nostalgic memories and musings.
Here’s the new logo, feel free to grab the size that works best for your site (right-click to download), and get ready to write!
The League assignments will be posted each week on Monday (starting today!). Raise your pencils, and… begin!
Whooooooooo! Great to hear this is back from a long hiatus. Looking forward to it.
Sweeeet! I must say I really missed it!
O.K. How do I join? where do I sign? And Is there a strength requirement? Cuz I’m pretty strong. Actually, I’m not but Id like to join up anyways.
Wow. I forgot I ever did this. That was a fun time. I was new to blogging. Everyone was so friendly….Now I cannot buy a comment.
Oh jeez Louise!!! The thing that inspired my blog in the first place may be the thing that causes me to write my blog in the second place!
Perfect timing! I was just saying how I wanted to get back into the writing scene. I met so many people through the original League that I still chat with today. I’m already awaiting the inspiration of new topics and new people! | 2019-04-20T08:34:12 | https://www.coolandcollected.com/the-league-strikes-back/ |
Treat your mom this Mother's Day to a delicious Italian two course menu – in collaboration with the talented chefs at Gordon Ramsay’s Union Street Café restaurant in London.
Who needs flowers on Mother’s Day when you can make mom feel extra special? Be the best host this year and try our easy to follow recipes – including a succulent Pork Tenderloin main and a yummy Ricotta Semifreddo dessert. Enjoy a cocktail or glass of something special to finish.
Treat mom to a beautiful Italian meal this Mother's Day!
1. Preheat an oven to 480°F. Place the eggplants directly on the oven rack and roast for 20 minutes or until they are charred on the outside. Remove and set aside to cool. Scrape the eggplant flesh from the skin (which you can discard). Chop the eggplant flesh roughly and season with garlic oil, a pinch of coffee powder (to give a smoky flavour), salt and pepper, and chopped chives.
4. Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F. Heat a non-stick frying pan with a glug of extra virgin olive oil. Sear the pork bundles for 5 minutes, then take them off the heat and add a knob of butter. Transfer the pork to the oven to cook for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and leave to rest on a tray for 10 minutes.
6. Carve the meat in thick slices and arrange on a long plate with scoops of the eggplant mixture. Dress with the dried tomatoes, picked onions and spoon over some hot veal stock. Finish with shavings of ricotta.
2. Next, make the Italian meringue: this will be the base of the semifreddo. Put the sugar in a saucepan with a splash of water and using a sugar thermometer, bring it to 244°F. Whisk the egg whites in an electric mixer and, once ready, slowly add the sugar syrup down the side of the bowl. Whisk on high speed until the meringue has cooled. | 2019-04-22T20:40:31 | https://www.royaldoulton.com/mothers-day-pork-tenderloin-recipe-blog |
Oracle America vs. Google - Software Patents on Trial?
In what seems like a normal day at the trough for large companies and their patent lawyers, Oracle America (nee Sun Microsystems, now a subsidiary of Oracle) has issued a lawsuit against Google for violation of seven patents and some copyrights (PDFs of the complaint document are available in many places on the Web). At its core, the fight is over Google's Dalvik virtual machine used in Android.
Whilst Dalvik implements the Java Virtual Machine (JVM), it is not a licenced product, it is a "clean room" implementation. Of course, clean room is not a defence against patents, if you use something on which there is a patent, you are liable to pay royalties to the patent holder, even if you didn't know about the patent. Oracle, via its purchase of Sun, now owns patents it thinks applies, and it wants to collect.
Somewhat predictably, the initial knee-jerk reaction of large swathes of the JVM using community on the various mailing lists is one of being up in arms against Oracle, complaining that Oracle are attacking Java, and that this is the beginning of the end for Java. Later on in the various threads, the voices of reason begin to appear. But this article is not about whether Oracle is trying to cause the demise of Java and the Java community, that is really rather unlikely given the importance of Java middleware to Oracle's core income stream. This article is about the instruments being used in this case.
Oracle has purchased a collection of patents, many of them software patents, as part of its purchase of Sun. Many of these patents relate to techniques used in the Sun implementation of the JVM, pure software patents. Patent documents, at least in the USA, often start "A method and apparatus to . . .", the interesting (!) thing about all software patents is there is no apparatus, there is just a method realized as an algorithm encoded in source code. It is a pity that patents do not get rejected for lying when using the standard language.
I have skimmed over the PDFs of six of the seven patents that are the focus of this case (6,125,447; 6,192,476; 5,966,702; 7,426,720; RE38,104; 6,910,205; and 6,061,520), and it seems clear that these are all pure software patents revolving around various techniques used in the JVM, but which are actually so broad that they are techniques used in many other varieties of virtual machine. So this case could be seen as the beginning of a programme to extract royalties from any and all purveyors of virtual machines.
In the end, Oracle have purchased a company with assets and they are trying to create a return on investment from those assets. Natural business activity. The problem is the nature of some of those assets, and in particular software patents. Moreover it isn't just the seven patents listed in this case. Each of those seven make reference to many other patents of similar type, all part of the portfolio. There is therefore a whole pool of patents in play here, and the "long play" may well be to validate all of these patents in court so that they can then be used as mechanisms for extracting more royalty revenues from more companies, and in the end create an effective monopoly on the whole concept of a virtual machine.
Thus one could imagine that Microsoft with its CLR, IBM's implementation of the JVM, possibly VMWare, Parallels, all hypervisors and virtual machines are being lined up. Could they perhaps even go after the Python, Ruby and Perl virtual machines as well? Here lies the seeds of paranoia, but it indicates how dangerous a legally validated software patent might be, at least in the jurisdiction of that patent. Here we see another indication of why the UK and EU must not allow these sorts of patent. They destroy competition and innovation.
From a strategy perspective, it is interesting that Oracle have targeted a big player first, rather than starting with a small player, as is usual in these quasi-extortion rackets. Little players often have to fold for lack of resource, so there is a build up of apparent validity to the patent caused by wining cases, albeit out of court. The problem though is no actual case law has been created, so there is still the risk that when you finally start with the big players, you have to go the full distance anyway, having already paid out a lot to deal with the small fry. Perhaps then the strategy here is to have the big game first, go the whole distance to a judgement, and by doing so immediately create case law. All other players, big or little, then have to fall in line; it is then a simple sweeping up operation, money for old rope.
Over the next few weeks there will be a lot of mud thrown at Oracle, much of it unreasonable, some of it reasonable. Google will try and appear like the FOSS (free and open source software) world's white night, when in fact they are just as grey a player as any other big company (after all they tried to leverage the JVM without paying their dues). The real culprit here is the USA patent system and its penchant for issuing software patents willy-nilly, and indeed at all. Patents are tools for big players to stifle little players, and as noted above competition and innovation. Any pretence that patents are tools for the little guy to get remuneration from their ideas has surely been seen through long ago.
There is though another count in the lawsuit which is potentially far more important in many ways than the software patents ones, and that is the breach of copyright claim (Count VIII). Currently it is not totally clear from the documents available what the claim really is. There are issues of timing and exact claim that introduce uncertainty. One interpretation is that Google simply reused in Dalvik Sun JVM code from a time prior to that code being released as open source under the GPL licence, even though they were claiming Dalvik to be a clean-room implementation. If so this would seem to be a straightforward violation of Sun's copyrights. Another interpretation is that Google have relicenced GPL licenced code under the ASL licence without permission - the ASL is a more permissive open source licence than the GPL, and in order to relicence GPL code under ASL you have to have the permission of the copyright holder. Under this interpretation Oracle is the white knight and Google the enemy of FOSS. This is so against all (prejudiced?) expectation that it is immediate to doubt this is the case, yet it might be. If it turns out that this is, in fact, the case then everyone currently saying Oracle are no longer to be trusted as the owners of Java and the JVM, may have to reassess their position. On the other hand this is all speculation until more details are available: Paragraphs 37 to 46 of the complaint document are not specific enough to do anything other than speculate on the actual claim.
This case is going to be one to watch. Hopefully Groklaw will take this one up. There is _The Oracle-Google Mess: A Question - Are Any of the Patents Tied to a Specific Machine?_, so possibly yes.
In breaking news: Oracle have jumped into the Evil Empires League straight at number 3, forcing Dell, The EU Patent Office, The USA Patent System, Amazon, and even Google, down one place. We conclude that there may be a direct relationship between position in the table and the extent to which bully boy tactics and the patent system is used to extort monies. | 2019-04-23T10:36:43 | https://www.russel.org.uk/posts/archive/2010-08-14-10-41.html |

Based on the feedback we received from you, our developer community, we have added search functionality to our website. You can find the search bar in the Support tab or navigate directly to https://developer.payeezy.com/search/site/.
We have a wealth of information in our FAQs and Forums which were largely untapped in the past. We hope you will now leverage the search feature and find answers sooner. Do check it out and let us know your feedback.
As of today, we allow you to link your developer accounts to production gateway accounts (a.k.a. merchant accounts) but not demo gateway accounts. For testing, we ask that you use the default demo gateway account (Acme Sock) that is available under the Merchants tab. Acme Sock is a demo gateway account owned by First Data and shared by all of you.
View transactions in the gateway UI after you execute an API call.
Set up AVS filters in your gateway account.
Set up CVV filters in your gateway account.
Create virtual gift cards for testing.
Test drive our Virtual POS system, etc.
Some context first – before you, as a developer, can use your APIs to process live transactions, your APIs need to be linked with a valid production merchant accounts (a.k.a. gateway accounts) in our database backend. Today, this link is established by us manually when you email us ([email protected]) the details.
We admit that this is a sub-optimal process and we believe that you should be able to process live transactions as soon as you are ready. So, we decided to make the process of go-live self-service. We are now testing a new feature by which, as a developer account holder, you will be able to link to a production merchant account by just providing the merchant account details via a form that we will provide online. And what’s more, once you submit the details, you will immediately be able to start sending us live transactions.
Stay tuned to our Blog section and News forum for more updates on the new features we are developing. If you have feature requests, please feel free to leave it in the comments section below or add it to the Feature Requests forum. | 2019-04-22T14:13:10 | https://developer.payeezy.com/content/site-search-and-other-upcoming-portal-features |

It exists in the intersection of old and new while this city is coming to its urbanisation gradually, so Dream Pavilion is definitive to describe lifestyle and expectation of the locals and immigrants.

October is Reuse month - what will you Re-imagine?
October is Reuse Month – What Will You Re-imagine?
Can Every Month be Reuse Month?
October is Reuse Month here in Ireland and over the coming weeks it’s likely you’ll come across several actions encouraging people to think about reducing, reusing or upcycling their ‘rubbish’. Running for the second year, this is an initiative of the Regional Authorities (@CRNIIreland) to promote reuse and a great opportunity for us all to think about waste and how we can re-imagine or eliminate it.
At a SUSY in Ireland event in Waterford recently, I was invited to demonstrate how everyday items can be used in gardens to save money, create art, as well as protect the environment. From Ferrero Rocher chocolate boxes that we can reuse as seed containers and old cutlery as garden chimes, there are so many other uses for our rubbish once we begin to look at it differently.
Last week, a local community gardening project in Gleann na Bearu, Bagenalstown, County Carlow, entered both local and national upcycle competitions for their many reuse garden projects. Pride of place is the artistically created greenhouse shown above. It was mostly created from 2 litre plastic drink bottles collected by the community. If you’d like to learn more about it or other upcycled projects in the garden, you can view them on their Facebook page or if you’re nearby, visit the garden on Wednesdays between 9.30am to 11.30am.
One very quick way we can make a difference in helping to reduce rubbish that otherwise heads to landfill is by stopping or reducing our use of single use cups. As a nation we managed to decrease our plastic bag use by a whopping 90% with the introduction of a small tax, surely we can do the same with disposable cups without one?
In July, the Green Party introduced a Waste Reduction Bill to the House of the Oireachtas encouraging this and more initiatives; the bill has since been referred to the select committee for consideration. The transcript of Eamon Ryan’s debate explaining the reasons behind the bill can be found online. One of the problems we face with disposable cups, is that even if single use cups say they are recyclable, there are no recycling plants in Ireland that are able to recycle them and only one of two in the UK are actually doing so.
When I returned to adult education earlier this year, it galled me to see plastic spoons, non recyclable cups and plastic lids being thrown into black plastic bags in their hundreds, on a daily basis. I asked the canteen if they’d consider doing something about it given the negative environmental impact and was pleased to see a box of wooden stirring sticks appear on the counter the following week; sticks that can at least be composted or made into plant pot labels. Sadly that was the only move to sustainability I became aware of while I was there. I began taking in a travel mug every day and asked for my tea to be made in that.
Wouldn’t it have been amazing if the contractors had taken the initiative on-board and encouraged all students to do the same? They could have reduced the cost of the cuppa on till receipts if they did so, after all, we’re saving them money on their cups, but alas, this wasn’t the case. As a newly appointed VOICE Ireland Recycling Ambassador, when I return to my studies next year I’ll be banging the recycling drum even louder and talking to the canteen contractors about the Conscious Cup Campaign and see if they’ll follow Trinity College’s footsteps!
Thankfully lots of cafe’s are beginning to take this on board. Fellow blogger Melanie May, has published a list of café s in Ireland that offer a discount if we bring our own cups; hopefully she’ll be updating it as more establishments come on board.
Baring all of this in mind, I was pleased to be sent a KeepCup (@KeepCup) by a PR company recently. After a few weeks of use, I’m happy to say it’s the best reusable cup I’ve tried. I’ve gone through a few brands over the years but usually give up on them because they drip. Whoever designed the sippy lip on the KeepCup got it exactly right. No more spillages down the front of the tee-shirt, it’s a marvel. I was invited to choose a colour from many variations and carry it around with me most days now.
KeepCup is an Australian brand developed by Abigail and Jamie Forsyth, a sister brother team who were dismayed at the large volume of waste that resulted from their Melbourne based café.
The reusable cups come in a variety of sizes, colours, materials and designs and are available to purchase in premium cafés nationwide or online. Cafés and businesses can order larger quantities of KeepCups from Dublin based, family run distributor EA Symmons. The one I received (12oz original) retails between €12.99 – €14.99 and is BPA free.
According to Canadian chemist, Dr Martin Hocking, the requirement to manufacture a reusable plastic cup versus a paper cup over a lifetime use was under 15 uses. Disposable cups are lined with polyethylene and there is enough plastic in 28 disposable cups to make one small KeepCup. The cups are guaranteed for a year under general wear and tear use.
It would be good to see a similar reuse campaign for single use plastic drink bottles next. If anyone can recommend a decent reusable water bottle that I can take to my fitness class, please leave a comment or get in touch!
Will you pledge to reuse, reduce or upcycle more? What initiatives are you already doing? I’d love to hear about them.
* Verified by Simon Lockrey from the Centre for Design at RMIT who completed a Symapro Life Cycle Analysis and has independently verified KeepCups sustainability claims.
I have a Contigo coffee flask and it is hands-down the best one I’ve had for keeping the coffee hot. You have to push a button to take a sip, so until that button is pushed the coffee is completely sealed. The drink keeps hot for at least an hour. They’re very pricey (ours was a gift) but I would highly recommend. When I was working I used a lovely ‘proper’ mug (as in a porceline mug) with a rubber lid from Dunnes. It was perfect for the office and never dripped. For the water bottle I would highly recommend the Sistema bottles, which I think I’ve seen in Pennys or Dunnes. They’re not very expensive, work well and last for ages.
That’s really handy info, thanks June. I don’t know how hot the KeepCup keeps drinks as I usually sip away rather than leave them. Also sounds useful that the Contigo flask completely seals for those bumpy journeys, though I’ve noticed my new cup sits in all the cup holders I’ve placed it in so that’s a bonus! I literally just bought myself a new Bobble filter sports bottle before you posted so will see how that fairs. Can’t beat a proper mug though, and preferably china for tea.
Thank you, they look great. I wasn’t sure if they were aluminium but I think stainless is still safe! Will bare that in mind.
Hiya, love this blog! My partner and i started a small business from our polytunnel this year. Built from scratch from re-purposed scaffolding poles and water pipe.
Coffee cups make great seedling potting on pots.
Egg shells make great slug proofing. some washed and crushed shells will keep them off your little seedlings. We mix ours with all the coffee grinds to make a crunchy, nutritious mix.
A good anti bird net can be made using bamboos and old plastic bottles. Theres a picture of our 2m high 10mx11m fruit cage on our blog (greencottagevegetables.wordpress.com) made by sticking bamboos in the ground, popping a bottle on top to support the netting and some ‘U’ shaped pegs holding it down. Total cost = approx £60. a proper metal one that size would cost about £1500!!!
Obviously smaller scale ones can be made for individual beds. we just wanted to be able to get in our to weed!
If you’re really creative, get the kids painting the bottles before they go in the garden. a bit more attractive and gets them involved!
We are hopefully going to be using some old tyres as raised beds for herbs soon. – things that would otherwise spread everywhere will hopefully stay contained!!!
Old sleepers from railways make excellent raised bed edgings – our greenhouse foundation is made from sleepers too!
sorry meant to add – use a good permanent marker like a sharpie on milk bottles, otherwise the sun will bleach it off the plastic!
Thank you, and loads of great tips! Especially interested in the fruit cage idea. Birds ate all our berries this year. Good luck with your venture.
Thanks for including my blog post in your blog post.
The KeepCup is a great idea, I know a few coffee drinkers that could use them! | 2019-04-26T16:21:11 | http://greensideup.ie/october-reuse-month/ |
The Python turboprop engine was designed and built by Armstrong Siddeley and had evolved from the earlier axial flow ASX turbojet engine developed in 1943. Its main use was in the Westland Wyvern naval carrier-based heavy fighter, the turboprop engine replacing the Wyvern prototype's original Rolls Royce Eagle 22 piston engine. In this application, the Python was rated at 4,110 EHP.
The design started as an experimental pure-turbojet known as the ASX, which started running in 1943. By this point other engine designs were already entering pre-production, and it seemed there was little need for the ASX in its existing form. The design was then modified into the turboprop layout with the addition of a second turbine stage, which was geared to the propeller.
Early flight-testing of the Python was carried out using Lancaster TW911 and later Lincoln RE339/G, each aircraft having the two outboard Merlins replaced by Pythons. Lincoln B.2 RF403 also had two Pythons installed and was used for high-altitude bombing trials at Woomera South Australia, the engines being used to increase the ceiling of the Lincoln to reach heights from which tests could be carried out. | 2019-04-18T18:24:05 | http://www.aarg.com.au/armstrong-siddeley-python.html |

hey, what area code would you use to dial out from the U.S. to call the owner? As well do you have pictures or no? how is the area?
Where are the Pelican Key apartments in relation to AUC?
Pelican Key is more like a small area on the island.
It is approximately a 10 minute drive (+/- 5 minutes) depending upon traffic east of AUC.
The apartment is located toward the rear of the Pelican Key area. | 2019-04-25T06:57:00 | https://www.valuemd.com/auc-medical-school-classifieds/159727-amazing-apartment-rent-utilities-included.html |

1) Freeze the pork tenderloin until firm, about 30 minutes; slice it into very thin slices, then into narrow strips. Refrigerate the pork.
2) Put the tree ear and shiitake mushrooms in separate small bowls and pour over boiling water to cover. Set aside for about 30 minutes.
3) Meanwhile, put the stock, garlic and ginger in a large pan. Crush the white part of 1 spring onion with the side of a knife and add to the pan. Simmer, covered for 15 minutes.
4) Thinly slice the remaining spring onions and reserve. Remove the mushrooms from the water and discard the liquid. Squeeze out any excess moisture and thinly slice.
5) Remove the garlic, ginger and spring onion from the broth and discard. Add the mushrooms, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, pepper and salt and bring to a simmer.
5)Whisk in the cornflour mixture, bring to a boil, and then simmer over medium heat for 5 minutes. Pour the egg into the soup and stir once to make delicate threads.
6) Stir in the sliced spring onions, sesame seed oil, tofu and pork. Return the stock to a simmer then remove the pan from the heat to prevent the meat from getting tough. Adjust the seasonings to taste. Serve immediately. | 2019-04-26T08:33:34 | http://www.foodnetwork.co.uk/recipes/hot-and-sour-soup.html |

The jewelry trends have changed as time has passed by. Earlier women would opt for delicate, subtle jewelry over bold chunky jewelry. But as time passed the world witnessed a change in trend and women were seen adorning eye catching, vivid jewels. Bold trendy jewelry has become the new “it” thing, when adorned even with casual couture it never goes unnoticed.
Outfits paired with vibrant jewelry tend to elevate your look to another level. Jewelry available in store these days are being replaced by handcrafted bold jewelry. As consumers are being more aware of the designing and minute details of the accessories, they have started comparing all the products available in store and all over the World Wide Web. We at manifest have noticed how a consumer’s inclination towards handcrafted jewelry has outnumbered their preference towards machine made jewelry.
Manifest design’s in vogue “Manifest Love Collection”, especially handcrafted by our skilled and talented craftsmen offer you a wide range of products to choose from. A couple of our favorite pieces include the most talked Quary cuff,a beautiful royal bracelet which would remind you of the one you might have witnessed as the vintage royalty accessory. This trendy handmade jewelry can be adorned in two colors. The cuff is not exactly a complete circle, what adds a prominent touch to this cuff is the spacing at the end of the bracelet.
Along with the various bracelets & cuffs we also have our most popular and elite Totem pendants, well crafted in aluminum, these pendants are available in a set of 3. They are a product of careful visualization about the forces of nature and thereby it includes the moon, the earth & a pendulum. The most amazing factor about these charm necklaces are that they can be worn individually or in various combinations. When teamed up with a casual summer dress or in elite couture these totem pendants leaves a grand mark on the spectators. Lay your hands on our high class Manifest Love collection and grab some attention, not only from your beloveds but also from the on lookers. | 2019-04-20T20:20:09 | https://www.manifestdesign.in/blogs/news/15569969-its-time-to-indulge-in-some-bold-jewelry |

So what in the world in SEO? Search Engine Optimization or Search Engine Optimizer ensures that a site has the ability to be found online by a search engine. The better you structure your SEO content for your website, the more likely you are to be found online. Many people (myself included) don't look past the first few pages of a typical search, so properly utilizing SEO is important to getting the exposure you want.
Again, I will touch on each of these specifically in other posts, but the important thing to remember here is that the whole is more important than the sum of the parts. Any one of these things will give you some results, but it's the utilization of all of these aspects of SEO that make them a powerful tool.
SEO is not a set it and forget it aspect to your marketing plan. It takes constant testing and reworking as you see what is getting you results. You can't properly SEO a site in a day or a month, it's an ever changing part of your brand.
Next time we will discuss Keyword Search and how to personalize it to get the traffic to your site. | 2019-04-20T20:44:18 | https://www.westashe.com/blog/2013/06/17/what-is-seo |
Robert E. Howard set the story in Hyborian Africa. The Teeth of Gwahlur are legendary jewels, kept in the abandoned city of Alkmeenon, in the country of Keshan "which in itself was considered mythical by many northern and western nations". Conan, following legends of this treasure, has travelled to Keshan and offered his services to train and lead Keshan's army against their neighbour, Punt. However, Thutmekri, a Stygian rogue with similar intentions, and his Shemitish partner, Zargheba, also arrive in the country with an offer of a military alliance with another of Punt's neighbours, Zembabwei, with some of the Teeth to seal their pact. The high priest of Keshan, Gorulga, announces that a decision on the matter can only be made after consulting Yelaya, the mummified oracle of Alkmeenon. This is all the treasure hunters require. Zargheba joins Gorulga in his expedition while Conan travels ahead of them. | 2019-04-26T14:05:24 | https://www.7switch.com/fr/ebook/9781531260132/jewels-of-gwahlur |
Kayaköy, formerly known as Levissi, is a settlement centre established during the Lycian period. It is located towards the northwest side of Liberty Hotels Ölüdeniz and is only 7 km away. It continued to exist as a rich city until the beginning of the twentieth century.
Kayaköy was the largest social and commercial centre of the region with its religious structures, pharmacies, hospitals, schools and post office. Kayaköy, where 25,000 people lived until 1922, had seen a dramatic decline in its population because of the population exchange between the Greek and Turkish governments. Greek people living in Kayaköy and Turkish people living in Western Thrace have been displaced mutually.
The houses of Kayaköy are generally around 50 m2 and the basements are mostly used as cellars. The most distinctive feature is that no house blocks the view of another. In that sense, the planning and the architectural value of the village fascinates any visitor. Two storeys houses have cisterns on the lower floors where rainwater accumulates. There are about 2000 houses, many chapels, two churches, schools and a customs buildingsthat all of them were built of 60 cm thick natural stone gathered from the region. Kayaköy had two types of settlements; flat terrain and slope. The Greeks chose to live on the slope and the Turk population lived on flat ground. For centuries, these two different cultures lived together and peace, prosperity and wealth have spread all over Kayaköy. Today, a calm and silent ghost town invites its visitors to experience its unparalleled nature. Nature refuses to forget its essence despite of people. The symbol of peace, olive trees, continue to bloom just to spite all wars.
Among the famous restaurants in Kayaköy are Cin Bal Kebap house, Levissi Garden Restaurant & Winehouse, İstanbul Restaurant and small, locally owned Turkish pancake places are spread all around the village. | 2019-04-22T00:11:31 | https://www.libertyhotelsoludeniz.com/en/have-you-visited-the-ancient-city-of-kayakoy |
This little Christmas elf is one I made when I was in high school. A woman I know made them to sell at craft sales and she hired me to help her. This is probably my all time favorite ornament and is a far cry from the felt snowman I made in grade school, huh?
Today it got up to 45 degrees here. Not that I really got to enjoy it. I woke up with my period and spent the say on the couch moaning. My cat Daisy is the sensitive one of our brood and she kept crawling on my lap as though to comfort me. Needless to say, I didn't get a lot done today. I did hang some suet for the birds and hung the Christmas cards we received. Not quite the day of industry I had planned. Tomorrow I need to do laundry and clean our place so I hope I feel better.
I made reservations at Palomino for my birthday dinner. I belong to their email club and they sent me a $20 off coupon as a birthday "gift" so we will use that. Plus, when I made the reservation, the host said that I get a free tiramisu too! Can't beat that with a stick. After dinner, we will drive around and look at Christmas lights as is our tradition. It seems as though more and more people are going all out with the lights around here so we don't have to drive as far to look for some pizzaz.
In doing my part to prepare for our discussion on adoption, I was wondering if anyone reading this has any helpful information? We are thinking that local adoption will probably be the best at this point. International adoption interests us, but that kind of travel is hard on Bob and we know International adoption costs a lot more. Still, we are open to whatever God has for us and will welcome any little child into our home and family. Please pass along any info you think would help us to make the best decision possible. Thanks! | 2019-04-26T08:37:34 | http://findingrace.blogspot.com/2006/12/warm-december-saturday.html |
The 2016 Burning Man festival is taking place this week in Nevada's Black Rock Desert, where New York-based creative director PieterJan Mattan has photographed his highlights from this year's event (+ slideshow).
Founded by Larry Harvey on a Californian beach in 1986, Burning Man now takes places each year on a vast desert plain in the USA.
"Burners" build artworks and structures at a variety of scales, trade with fellow attendees rather than purchasing goods, and cycle around instead of using cars.
The event, which takes place this year from 28 August to 5 September, climaxes with the cremation of an effigy and the dismantling of all the other temporary structures built across the stretch of arid land.
Mattan, who consults with a range of design and fashion brands, has attended the festival a couple of times and worked with sculptor Arne Quinze, who built a giant wooden pavilion at Burning Man in 2007.
This year, he travelled to the site early to capture the construction of the installations and Black Rock City, which becomes home to over 70,000 people for just over a week.
Tangential Dreams is a climbable sinuous tower made from off-the-shelf timber and digitally designed via algorithmic rules.
Around 1,000 "tangent" thin wooden pieces are held in position via horizontal pieces rotating along a central axis, gently moving in the wind like leaves of a giant tree.
At first look, Horizon Lines appears to be a cluster or "forest" of 25 wooden posts rising out of the Playa.
A portion of the posts are painted black, visually aligning with the horizon and mountain range behind it.
Here still under construction, Catacomb's double pyramid rises like a rocky outcropping off the desert floor, evoking Black Rock Point itself.
It is a ruin of a previous society – a remnant of our collective search for moments of quiet, introspection and reflection. It is a journey of discovery and a descent into a subterranean world.

While the twelve year old Glenfiddich is a relatively non-descript malt, older bottlings are now gaining high praise including one award as the world’s best single malt Scotch whisky. A panel of seventy five independent whisky experts in three countries voted Glenfiddich 40 Year Old Rare Collection the world’s best single malt Scotch whisky in a competition held by the trade bible, ‘Whisky Magazine’ in 2003. The thirty year old is similarly luxurious, rare and complex and makes a wonderful after dinner malt. | 2019-04-20T22:23:39 | https://www.uisuki.com.au/products/glenfiddich-30-year-old-single-malt-scotch-whisky-700ml-bottle-speyside/ |
So, as many of you may know, we spent Christmas week in the hospital taking care of our baby Rochelle. I will describe a little bit of what we went through and where we stand today. I just want to say first and foremost, thank you to everyone for the prayers sent to Rochelle. God healed her little body and she is back at home safe and sound.
On the early morning of Monday December 22, I started to notice that Rochelle was showing shows signs of increased effort of breathing, and her rate of breathing was increased. I hooked her up to the portable pulse ox machine (which measures her oxygen percentage) in her body and she was in the 80’s (which is suppose to be 90-100) at 1/4L on her concentrator. I hooked her up to the spare oxygen tank and increased her flow to 1 liter and her sats were still low and not going up. After doing everything I could at home, I called Shane at work and told him to come home immediately knowing that we needed to take Rochelle to the ER. I called my small town ER and told them what was going on (she was in Respiratory Distress) and knew she needed to be closely monitored to see what might be happening. They quickly life-flighted her to Dell’s Childrens Meidcal Center in Austin (Shane got to fly with her while I packed up the house and all of her equipment, the dogs and their kennels to stay at my parents and drove to the hospital from Yoakum) Thank goodness that my parents were already watching Brielle that weekend which worked out perfectly for her to stay there a few extra days.
When I arrived to the hospital her x-rays were showing signs of atelectasis (collapse of the lung), and increased vasculature, so they wanted to start her on antibiotics right away in case of a possibility of pnemonia, and for the respiratory therapy to provide albuterol breathing treatments every 4 hours and CPT (chest physiotherapy) to break up the secretions in her lungs.
The next day (Tuesday morning), the doctor ordered to increase the amount of lasix (to remove the extra fluid off of her body) from once a day at home to three times a day. He also ordered to give her a potassium replacement replace what is getting lost while on Lasix, continue CPT and albuterol, continue her on an IV with D10W (because her sugars were a little low), and place a PICC line, continue the antibiotic regimen, and place her on a CPAP machine to help her breathing.
Wednesday (Christmas Eve), the plan of the day was to take her off her breathing machine (CPAP) and put her on a high-flow oxygen, try to start feedings again through the NJ tube (nasojejunum) and keep the stomach empty, change the fluid pill (Lasix) to twice a day instead of three times a day, continue IV fluids until we know she can tolerate her half breastmilk/half formula feedings, continue CPT and albuterol, blood gases and an x-ray to be drawn in the morning.
Thursday morning (Christmas Day), the plan was to the increase the feedings by a small amount, continue CPT and change her albuterol to as needed, switch from the high flow oxygen to the regular nasal cannula that we were using at home, discontinue the IV antibiotics since they ruled out viral or bacterial pneumonia, and continue the lasix to twice a day.
Friday morning the only change was to increase her lasix to three times a day due to an increase in haziness in her lungs from the x-ray taken that day. The doctor loved her improvement and stated that we will be making way to leaving tomorrow.
Saturday morning the doctors stated that Rochelle was doing great, all of the treatments and therapies worked tremendously and a LOT faster then they thought and they would discontinue the IV fluids, take out her NJ tube and place back her NG tube for feedings to resume at home, discontinue the PICC line and CPT and we will moved to the step down unit called IMC for one more night of monitoring before being able to go home.
Sunday morning we were told we were able to go home!!! Best news all week, Rochelle did amazingly all week with all of the changes she had to go through, and by the grace of God she stayed strong and came out stronger then ever!! We are going home with Lasix to be given twice a day in her NG tube, prevacid for her reflux to be given once a day, miralax to be given in the morning with her feeding and oxygen to remain the same at 1/4L on the oxygen concentrator.
Sorry for making this all about the facts, but Rochelle endured a LOT this past week and she is so amazing and strong. People say we (Shane and I) have amazing faith and strength, little do they know our baby girl Rochelle has gone through more than we can ever imagine. God gives her amazing strength and no one ever expected us to be here to this day being able to write about our little blessing. She is AMAZING, not us. We are so happy to be home with our girls and thankful for my mom able to be here with me and help me out with the girls while Shane went back to work this week after taking last week off.
Thank you to these amazing men for getting Rochelle stable, safe and sound to Austin.

In this assignment, you will learn how to accelerate ray tracing by using acceleration data structures. In the previous assignment, each time you traced a ray the code would perform an intersection test against every single primitive in your scene. This is a reasonable solution for scenes with a few primitives, but quickly becomes impractical in typical scenes that contain meshes with thousands to billions of primitives/triangles. Naive ray tracing on these scenes is infeasible since the cost of tracing a ray grows linearly with the number of primitives. Acceleration structures allow us to keep this cost sub-linear, providing tremendous speed improvements for typical scenes.
In this assignment you will implement an acceleration structure called a bounding volume hierarchy (BVH) that employs a hierarchy of axis-aligned bounding boxes (AABB) as the bounding volume primitive, hence forming a bounding box hierarchy (BBH). You will start by implementing basic primitive intersection routines that will build upon one another culminating in a fully functional BBH implementation that will allow you to render scenes with thousands to millions of triangles in a matter of seconds to minutes.
This assignment comes with multiple tasks with the undergraduate and graduate students having slightly different requirements.
NOTE: Perform a git pull to get the latest code changes from the repo before working on the assignment. Ray tracing is a popular programming exercise, and there are countless implementations of ray tracing and acceleration structures available online. Needless to say, you are not allowed to look at those implementations or copy their source code when completing this assignment. You are required to design and implement your own solution and failing to adhere to this policy will be a direct violation of the academic honor code.
In this task, you will implement a ray-triangle intersection routine. Triangles are generally the default modeling primitives and hence essential for rendering a variety of scenes. You will implement the ray-triangle intersection code for a single triangle within the static method Mesh::singleTriangleIntersect() in the src/mesh.cpp file. Once you've finished writing up the intersection code, you can go ahead and run the 02_test1_tri_intersection application that tests your intersection code. This application is provided for you to make sure your intersection routine is working properly before proceeding ahead with mesh intersection. Making sure your triangle intersection works correctly saves you the trouble of debugging the code as you perform full ray tracing against a scene containing lots of geometry. You can implement any of the triangle intersection routines taught in the class lectures and book.
The intersection routines have a reference to a Intersect3f struct as input argument. This structure conveniently encapsulates all data about the intersection of a ray with any surface within the scene. The structure has a geometric normal (Intersect3f::gn) that represents the face normal of a triangle. The geometric normal can be computed from the edges of the triangles using a cross product. The shading normal (Intersect::sn) can be computed when per-vertex normal data is available. The barycentric coordinates can be computed as a part of the triangle intersection routine. By interpolating the per-vertex normals using the barycentric coordinates the shading normal can be computed. If per-vertex normals are not available, the shading normal is the same as the geometric normal.
Implement your code and run the 02_test1_tri_intersection application. You should get the correct required solutions as indicated in the source code. The application tests for both the geometric and shading normals' correctness.
NOTE: Dirt uses a right-handed coordinate system where the 'z' axis points out from the screen. Hence triangles in our framework are assumed to have a counter-clockwise orientation of their vertices. Make sure to take this into account while computing the face normal for triangles. It can be convenient to assume a canonical triangle with one vertex at origin, one vertex along the x-axis and one vertex along the y-axis and using this triangle to determine where the normal should actually point towards to. An incorrect normal direction might result in lighting computations to return always zero since the normal direction determines what is the 'inside' and 'outside' of a surface.
Once you've made sure that your single triangle intersection routine works correctly, you can now proceed ahead to implement the Mesh::intersect() routine. A mesh is a collection of triangles. The triangle data is stored in an indexed format within the mesh. The vertex positions are stored within the Mesh::m_V vector and the triangle faces are represented as tuples of 3 indices (vector3i) within Mesh::m_F that index into the vertices vector. Using an indexed notation saves memory by not having duplicate vertex data. Mesh::m_N stores per vertex normal data that can be provided along with a scene file. Mesh::m_UV stores per vertex 'uv' texture coordinates that will be used to texture meshes in a scene (texturing will be covered in a later lecture).
The Mesh::intersect() routine takes as input an additional 'index' argument that can be used to retrieve vertex location data as well as other associated data (normal and 'uv' coordinates) with respect to a triangle. The 'index' argument refers to a triangle within the Mesh::m_F whose three components give the indices of the vertex data within Mesh::m_V(the same indices can give the locations of per-vertex normal and texture coordinates data if available). Once you fetch this data, compute the intersection with the specified triangle using the static function Mesh::singleTriangleIntersect() that you've already written.
NOTE: The triangles in the meshes are assumed to have already been transformed into world space. Hence ray-triangle intersections can be carried out directly without transforming the ray into object-space.
Once you've completed adding the intersection code to Mesh::intersect() routine, run the 01_raytrace application with the provided scene file 'teapot.json'.
NOTE: The provided scene file employs a 'bbh' acceleration structure. If you have not implemented one yet, you should remove the accelerator field from the json file to employ the linear accelerator. Not doing so will result in a blank image since you have not implemented an acceleration structure yet. Also employing the linear accelerator will be slow since it employs a brute-force exhaustive intersection search for every ray.
We have provided two reference images (Figure1 and Figure2) that show the shading normal not being computed and being computed. Notice how barycentric interpolation of per-vertex normals results in a smoother appearance.
NOTE: Certain meshes might not have per vertex normal data associated with a mesh. In such cases, make sure to explicitly check for normal data and perform shading normal interpolation only when the data is present. If per vertex normal data is not available then the shading normal is the same as the face normal.
The BBH employs an axis aligned aligned bounding box (AABB) as its enclosing primitive for the internal nodes. A ray-AABB test is much cheaper than a ray-mesh intersection test. Hence a primitive is tested for intersection only if its bounding box passes an intersection test with the ray. You will have to implement the ray-box intersection test within the src/bbh.cpp file. Once you have implemented the intersection code, run the 02_test2_aabb_intersection application to test your code. You should pass the all the tests run by the application.
For this task you will be implementing a bounding box hierarchy (BBH) in order to accelerate ray traversal speed. As indicated earlier, acceleration structures rapidly increase ray tracing speed when compared to naive object intersections. The quality of the acceleration structure built determines the average number of primitives tested per ray for intersection. This in-turn directly affects the ray tracing speed as well. A BBH is essentially a binary tree where the leaf nodes contain the actual primitives whereas internal nodes partition the global list of primitives into different subsets. A BBH employs an object partitioning scheme and hence two sibling nodes have no two primitives in common between them. Each internal node has a bounding volume that encompasses all the set of objects it has. Hence the root node is the global bounding box of the entire scene.
A BBH can be constructed in either a top down or bottom up fashion using a variety of methods. However a recursive top-down approach of constructing the BBH is comparatively easy to other methods. We start from the root node and recursively create child nodes as well as leaf nodes depending upon the number of primitives we want the leaf nodes to have (BBH::maxPrimsInNode). Setting too fine a number means that we have deep trees spending more time intersecting bounding boxes, while setting a large number means that we have shallower trees but spend more time intersecting all the primitives in the leaves. A good value is generally 4-10, however we encourage you to play with this number to see how it affects your ray tracing performance.
As indicated earlier, at each node we recursively divide the contained elements. This division is called a 'split' strategy and a variety of split strategies exist. A simpler strategy might might construct the BBH tree quickly, while a complicated one might take longer while yielding a higher-quality BBH that results in faster overall ray tracing time. BBH performance is typically determined by the amount of bounding overlap between nodes and different split strategies result in different overlap characteristics. In this assignment we will deal with 3 split strategies typically encountered in literature.
Middle split - Split the node at the spatial center of the encompassing bounding box and partition objects into a 'left' and 'right' node based on location with respect to the split location.
Surface Area Heuristic (SAH) - A heuristic for choosing the split criterion which tries to minimize the expected cost of a random ray intersecting the BBH.
The first two split strategies are relatively easy compared to the SAH heuristic method. The text book provides pseudo-code for the first two split strategies.
NOTE: The middle split strategy might result in a degenerate case where all primitives are partitioned inside only one of the child nodes while the other gets none. You must detect this condition and write code that handles this appropriately (e.g. by cycling to a different split axis or using equal-counts for just that level).
Undergraduate students are required to implement the first two split strategies (middle and equal counts). You can undertake the SAH split method for extra credit.
Graduate students are required to implement the SAH splitting method as well as one of the other two (you can also try to implement all three, but this will just be for personal satisfaction and bragging rights, and not for extra credit).
NOTE: We encourage you to start the acceleration structure construction coding process by trying to implement the simpler methods before starting the SAH since it can be notoriously hard to track down bugs with regards to acceleration structure construction. Also try to test your code with simple scenes having limited geometry before using large scenes since construction times can be significant.
In this assignment, you are required to implement your acceleration structure building code in the BBH::build() routine in the src/bbh.cpp file. The split technique is determined by the BBH::splitMethod in the source files which is initialized by the splitMethod key when loading a json scene file. Once you are done implementing the build routine, you should add your acceleration structure traversal routine to the BBH::intersect() routine in the same file as above. The provided bbh.cppsource file contains pseudo-code to help you with the traversal process. The traversal process starts at the root node where the ray is tested for intersection with the root bounding box. If no intersection happens, we exit immediately since a ray cannot hit any primitive when it doesn't hit the bounding box. We then perform a recursive traversal within both the children of each node. When we reach a leaf node, we check for intersection between all the primitives within the leaf and update ray parameters appropriately. We then continue with the traversal in a recursive manner until we check all other nodes in the tree. Please refer to the textbook for ray-acceleration structure traversal pseudo-code for more information.
NOTE: We cannot stop traversal of a ray within a BBH as soon as an intersection is encountered. This is because a BBH does not guarantee spatial ordering between primitives and hence all the nodes have to be processed before the nearest intersected primitive is returned.
You can test your acceleration structure code by running the 01_raytrace application with scenes from the scenes/02_raytrace_faster folder. The provided code computes the average number of primitives tested per traced ray (primitives_intersected / traced_rays). This number is indicative of the quality of the BBH (a lower number indicates that only a few costly primitive intersection tests are performed overall). Report this number as a part of your submission, it will be used as one component of the grading. We encourage you to also post your statistics on Piazza to compare your performance with other classmates.
NOTE: The provided json scene files use a relative path scheme for loading OBJ file format meshes. It assumes that the scene directory is one level above the working directory of the executable. If you encounter an error indicating that the program was unable to load the mesh file, please change the paths to the meshes within the json files. This edit operation is very minor and can be easily accomplished.
We provide the average number of primitives tested per ray for our implementation of the BBH on the scenes provided. Note that these numbers can vary with respect to different parameters such as view location. The numbers provided are respective to the given scene file configurations. These numbers are given to you so that you can estimate how well your implementation is performing compared to ours.

Enlightening: Reverend Nyalle Paris, of First Church, with a book of poetry by German Lutheran pastor Dietrich Bonhoeffer.
A SERIES of short theology and religion courses by the University of Otago has attracted good patronage in Invercargill.
Reverend Nyalle Paris, of First Presbyterian Church, said the ‘‘taster courses’’ which began in May were proving popular.
The next course, tomorrow and Saturday, discussing German Lutheran pastor Dietrich Bonhoeffer, who died in a German concentration camp in 1945, already had 20 people registered so far, he said.
It will be taught by Dr Chris Holmes, senior lecturer in Systematic Theology at the Department of Theology and Religion at the University of Otago, and an Anglican priest in the Diocese of Dunedin.
‘‘The course will look at Bonhoeffer’s life and why he chose to return to Nazi Germany at his own peril. Although he was a leading German Lutheran pastor and theologian who had come from a noble family, he was also part of the resistance against Adolf Hitler and was involved in a plot to remove him from power. The plot backfired, and Bonhoeffer was arrested and put into a concentration camp,’’ Mr Paris said.
Í Faith & Thinking Seminar: Dietrich Bonhoeffer, First Church central hall, Tay St, tomorrow, 7pm-9pm, and Saturday, August 6, 9am-12.30pm. Cost $20. Pay on the night, but early registrations essential.

MY WEEK IN PHOTOS: SEPTEMBER 11–17, 2017!
A week of intense workshops in Denver before heading back to a weekend of art openings, eating with parents, dog sitting my favorite Peanut, and getting back into Los Angeles life. Oh and new very yellow pants.
Good morning! I’m in Denver, Colorado, for a work-related conference this week.
This conference is called an intensive, so the three days of the conference we had two different three-hour workshops.
Free happy hour at the conference hotel…who doesn’t like extremely salty crunchy stuff!?
Walking around Denver at the end of the first day of the conference.
Walked to the Denver Central Market. It’s like Grand Central Market in LA but smaller and fancier.
Yellow curry and rice! Yum!
More Denver Central Market shots—it was so empty I was surprised. But later we heard there was an important sports game aha which may have been why nobody was out and about.
Lobby of my hotel, so cute!
Il Posto! I had some octopus and burrata omg.
Element Kitchen and Cocktail….was a little nervous cuz the tagline on the website is “A farm to table sports bar with all the best amenities.” BUT! It came through.
Got lucky with this leg room!
Pacific Standard Time: LA/LA is liiiive!
Downtown to see an opening…but we were too early. Oops.
Marie told me that goat’s milk soap is good for eczema so here I am trying it.
Happy Sunday! Decided to take the pups out to get some nice treats.
Turns out there was a farmer’s market but no dogs were allowed, so I chilled with them while Zach found some juices.
I got a mango chile lime sorbert, mmmm. Pretty good!
Hope you are safe and happy this week. Have a good day or night!

my friend is moving to denver for a month for her work – any recommendations based on the time you were there?
so many happy pups! do sufi and tweedy get along well with peanut when she stays?
Re: Denver, breweries! Denver Art Museum! “RINO” (River North) is a trendy up and coming neighborhood with lots of street art, Denver Central Market and fancy restaurants. Ate at a place called Kachina Southwestern Grill which was so delicious. A little fancy, in a boutique hotel downtown! Hope that helps?!
Tweedy loves Peanut…maybe a little too much. He gets kind of humpy. (Not to fret, he’s definitely fixed.) Sufi just is evasive but that is normal for him!
And yes, I think my mom wants me to come around for dinner more often so she always pulls out all the stops!!

Birth of John Elizabeth had a son, and all her friends and relatives were overjoyed for her. She seems to have recovered well from the birth itself, because eight days afterwards she was up and around, ready to attend the circumcision of her son.
A baby was usually named on the day of his circumcision, and a common practice at this time was to name a first son after his grandfather.
In this case however, Elizabeth’s extended family seemed to have decided that the baby would be called Zechariah, after his stricken father.
However, due to his inability to speak, his wife Elizabeth says the child s name is to be John, not Zechariah, after his father as would traditionally be the case. Note the remarkable coincidence (?) that Elizabeth also chooses the name John (Luke 1:60), a further sign that God is at work here.
Everyone disagreed with her, pointing out that there was no family precedent for the name ‘John’, but Elizabeth stood her ground.
Surprised, the people looked to the father, and Zechariah writes his response on a tablet: “His name is John.” This grammatical tense indicates something extremely important had happened in Zechariah s life. He doesn’t write, His name will be John, ” but he acknowledges than in a sense the child is already John. Zechariah is saying that he now finally understands what God is doing through what we may term a “divine synthesis.
In typical Lukan fashion, the responses of the people are (1) amazement ( v. 63) and fear ( v. 65). Both of these words occur more often in Luke than in the other gospels. They are not words of faith.
One could emphasize the difficulties of holding one’s convictions amid the pressure of family and friends to act or believe differently than what God has said. Note that the pressure or “temptation” from the people was not to do anything evil. They just wanted to name the child Zechariah after his father. However, that was contrary to God’s will in this particular case.
Immediately Zechariah s speech is restored and he bursts forth in song, the Benedictus, becoming an eloquent witness to a new era of the way God chooses to work. In this song of Zechariah’s, we get a glimpse of this divine thesis, the coming together of a single child who both fulfilled his parent’s most cherished hopes and prepared the way for the coming of the long-awaited Messiah.
John the Baptist’s birthday celebrated on June 24, is patron of tailors (because he made his own garments in the desert), of shepherds (because he spoke of the “Lamb of God”), and of masons.
The story provides several important Advent messages. First, Elizabeth (who was elderly and barren) will produce a child, just as a world which had become stale and ordinary and barren of meaning will produce something completely new. Zechariah, speechless through his disobedience, recovers all that he has lost by listening to the Lord. (He recovers his speech at his son’s circumcision, a rite which operated as a sign of the covenantal relationship between the people of Israel and the God who chose them.) Within the loving covenant God calls us into, life springs up in the desert, and all we’ve lost will be recovered.
The birth of John, often referred to as the last of the Old Testament prophets, signals that God is redeeming and reclaiming all of creation. It teaches that we cannot rely on the old rules or our old expectations anymore. Thus, during this time of year when the days are shorter and the darkness seems to dominate time itself, we light an Advent candle. We know things are about to change. | 2019-04-23T06:39:26 | https://www.churchsp.org/lesson/birth-of-john-luke-157-66/ |

I need to have the shoutbox display real names rather than user names. I was using 4.07 wishcraft, and I was not able to figure it out. I tried E-mailing tank, but I have received no reply.
Recently I attempted to figure out how to do it again, and failed. I then noticed the 5.0 alpha and thought I would try it and see if I had better luck. The code in the places I have tried all seem the same as the 4.07 version, but since it is now provided by XUUPS I figured it could not hurt to ask for assistance here.
My site is a portal for a gaming alliance. We let anyone signup with usernames that they are used to using, and then we have them set the real name to their IGN so we can identify each other on the site. So far all my other modules comply with Xoops by having a preference to select if you want to use username or real name. Shoutbox is the only one that doesn't.
Any help would be appreciated. I noticed shoutbox is not presented as one of your primary products, so even if you could just tell me what code to change in which files and what to change it to. Thank you.
I will test and respond. Than you very much.
I noticed that you also made it so auto refresh is checked my default. I am happy to see that, as I was having to make that change myself. Also, I expected to have to redo my CSS since I uninstalled, deleted he folder, uploaded the new folder, and re-installed. However, I didn't have to touch them. Is this now inherited from the theme? If so, kudos again.

Sachin and Babi Ahluwalia escaped winter and headed to the tropics for their colorful resort collection.
Escape the winter and head to the tropics — that’s what Sachin and Babi Ahluwalia did in their minds as they designed their resort collection. Working with clean silhouettes, the husband-and-wife team showed off their textile skills, showing dresses spliced with navy stripes and a colorful floral print, a pinstriped jacket in bold tropical colors, and fringe on everything from tops to dresses.
The duo also expanded their knitwear offering with diagonal-ribbed sweaters that were perfectly slouchy — and kept the collection fresh and easy. The designers also launched Noir, a young and playful approach to evening focused on full skirts, cropped tops and an embroidered dresses. | 2019-04-24T04:21:35 | https://wwd.com/runway/resort-2016/new-york/sachinbabi/review/ |
House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn (D-SC) claimed the media was treating Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) badly for making several anti semitic comments. Clyburn defended Omar in an interview with The Hill this week. In fact, Clyburn said that Omar’s experience as a refugee was more empirical to the experiences of holocaust survivors.
On Wednesday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) caved in to the pressure. Pelosi said she didn’t believe the tweets were “intentionally anti-Semitic,” and that the House should add to the House resolution to condemn anti semitism. Additionally, Pelosi said she would add condemnation for any bias against blacks and Muslims to the resolution.
In a video on twitter, Omar addressed death threats she had received. “I know that as long as I breathe that I will continue to make people uncomfortable in the best way possible,” she said.
President Trump chimed in Wednesday on twitter saying, “It is shameful that House Democrats won’t take a stronger stand against Anti-semitism in their conference. Anti-semitism has fueled atrocities throughout history and it’s inconceivable they will not act to condemn it!

I’ve got a bit of a backlog of sewing projects to share – last year before our trip to Japan I churned out a pair of Ginger jeans for me, another pair of Jutland pants for Luke and a merino Ensis tee for me, thus proving to me once and for all that I work best with a deadline in sight! But since it’s summer here in NZ and I’m not currently wearing jeans or merino tops, here’s a project I sewed up today instead.
The pattern is one I bought from Miss Matatabi last year, on a whim. I hadn’t heard of the pattern company before, but it was cheap and something about it intrigued me. It seems right now she’s only stocking the blouse in a kit, however. It consists of 3 pieces – the front and back are identical, and then the sleeves/yoke are a separate piece for front and back. The pattern is entirely in Japanese, however there are diagrams to help. I have been teaching myself Japanese for a while now (and previously studied it for a year at University) and so my prior knowledge together with Google Translate helped me to understand most of what was going on. Unfortunately I’m never very good at visualising how to rotate pattern pieces and how everything comes together in English patterns, let alone Japanese ones, so there was definitely some head scratching at first.
The end result is…well, it’s different. Japanese fashion always looks effortless and elegant on Japanese people, but on me? Not so much. I’ve wanted to give Japanese sewing patterns a go for a while, and I own a couple of books, but up until quite recently I’ve been larger than the largest size, and I can’t be arsed grading up. This particular pattern is one size, but that size is huge so no worries there. I haven’t altered it at all. I’m carrying some extra kilos from eating ALL THE CAKES in Japan, but hey, I could be 6 months pregnant under this dress and no one would be any the wiser.
It’s a very simple silhouette – a bit kimono-esque. The sleeve/yoke pieces are joined together to make the entire top of the dress, there is no shoulder seam, and they’re just rectangles. The first front seam hits across my high bust, the second somewhere across my upper back/shoulders, and the third around my armpits. The inside is very neat, everything is overlocked, turned and stitched in place. And, in a minor miracle for me, all the notches and hems lined up everywhere. Seriously, this never happens!
The fabric is a rayon challis (most likely) bought from a fabric bin at my local Red Cross op shop. It’s got fantastic drape, and is light and flowy – perfect for the sudden onset of warm weather Auckland is having. All that said, I’m a bit on the fence about it. I mean, it’s not flattering. At all. But it is supremely comfortable, and I feel weirdly stylish wearing it. I ventured out to my local dairy (convenience store) this afternoon in it and felt a bit confident, even. I don’t think I’ll make it again though – for starters, I think 1 muumuu in my wardrobe is enough, and I have a list of things I want to sew that just keeps growing, so no time for repeats!
Just one of the delicious treats I ate in Japan – already wondering when I can return! | 2019-04-25T10:55:56 | https://teaandrainbows.com/tag/japanese-fashion/ |
Regardless of the philosophy you employ in your internet marketing, relevance is the most crucial thing out there. Your visitors want to meet someone special when visiting your dating website.
Run A/B tests and use other tools to find which traffic channels work best for you and ensure that your marketing strategy is formed by great effective solutions.
Many specialists believe that the process of segmentation is the most important part of the search engine optimisation (SEO) and the conversion rate optimisation (CRO). Processing the data in a proper way and having a detailed wholesome picture is great. While knowing the conversion rate is not important, knowing which channels bring conversions may be pivotal!
You need to understand that your dating site visitors are not generic human beings. They have different needs, and their personalities respond differently to the same way of marketing.
Tip #1. Meet and Befriend.
Use different approaches for visitors who are coming for the first time and completely different for repeated visitors. For example, show how to set up the account to a new user and show advanced features to the people who have been to your site a number of times already.
Tip #2. Know Your Sources.
People coming from different places obviously have specific expectations and you should be ready for them. For example, people coming from a paid promotional campaign should start exploring your website from the landing page dedicated to the promotion.
Tip #3. Know Your Geography.
We once talked about the way to target customers from different countries. Knowing how well your strategy works is crucial. Additionally, you can easier analyse the data when the keyword optimisation is way too broad.
For example, you could immediately ask whether your visitors want to check out people from their region, or better yet show them people from their region and give them a way to change the search filter options if they want to.
It will make your campaigns more targeted and focused, significantly increasing the conversion.
Without knowing where your visitors are coming from, you may completely miss the point of marketing and start doing things that will eat through your budget fairly quickly while doing essentially nothing.
Tip #4. Behaviour is the Key.
Successful e-commerce websites that know how to analyse their data try to segment their visitors depending on trends and changing behaviour patterns. Successful dating services should be even more reactive. Any change of mood should be thought through.
How many revisits did it take for a visitor to create an account? How many profiles did he or she browse before making a purchase? These questions will help you to determine the vital patterns.
Knowing what to show and how to show it to visitors depending on how they usually behave is the most efficient way to improve the conversion rate.
Tip #5. Use Referrals Wisely.
If you make a new promotion and want to focus the attention of your visitors on a specific feature, make sure that these people do not interfere with your overall efficiency analysis. If your dating service is featured in an article about visual design and smart UI solutions, your new visitors will likely be design experts and artists. The low conversion rate is normal for this category of visitors. This should not affect your judgement as to the effectiveness of the marketing campaign in general.
Tip #6. Analyse Your Conversions.
Evaluating and tracking conversions and traffic sources helps in separating specific visitors from each other. Those who come from Facebook may be less interested in your services, but directed from specific referral systems may convert much more often!
Tip #7. Use Segmentation Based on URL Parameters.
Segmentation can be done on multiple levels. Let’s cover three of them.
AdWords. This service is probably the best friend of an optimizer. Google AdWords is a transparent instrument that allows you to quickly analyse the effect of your keywords. Some of them are effective. Some are quite fruitless.
There are other small tips that you can use in order to maximise the efficiency. Imagine that a visitor comes to your website. Do they continue to search for something? Are there specific services that they are interested in? Answering these questions is crucial!
Newsletter campaigns. Some companies take relevancy to the next level. Even the smallest percentage of complaints from your users will make your marketing campaign banned. Make sure to structure your letters correctly and make them truly useful for a customer.
As the owner of a dating website, you can create a campaign that will take people to the landing page that makes a short proposal and allows making a decision immediately. The offer itself is written in the email newsletter. This will immediately cut off inactive subscribers.
Retargeting. Some visitors are hesitant to register but have demonstrated their desire to try out your dating service. These people need a small push to become your loyal clients.
Putting them in a special category and developing offerings and promotions specifically for them is a good idea. This will help you to tailor your marketing efforts to ensure that they make their last step towards being converted.

Julius Shulman, the photographer who influenced modernist architecture as much as the architects themselves, died Wednesday at 98-years-old. The Los Angeles Times writes that Shulman counted the architectural elite among his clients, including such heavy-hitters as Rudolf M. Schindler, Gregory Ain, Frank Lloyd Wright, and Albert Frey. His photographs of Los Angeles during its mid-century heyday were so powerful that, as one expert said, "you can practically hear the Sinatra tunes wafting in the air and the ice clinking in the cocktail glasses." Shulman never graduated college and only took one course in photography in his life. Born in Brooklyn in 1910, Shulman said he loved modernist architecture the very first time he saw it. | 2019-04-21T14:36:15 | https://www.thedailybeast.com/julius-shulman-dead-at-98 |

The grand staircase plays an important role in the first impression of a building. The bigger the staircase, the more glamorous and regal a property will look. The White House is renowned for its grand staircase, which is primarily used for the Presidential Entrance March. Another notable staircase is the grand staircase on the RMS Titanic. It’s one of the most recognisable features of the sunken liner, frequently recreated in film and art. But why is it that we only see these beautiful architectural delights in older buildings, not new ones?
The grand staircase was an architectural feat, combining elegant design and structural integrity to create a useable and essential part of the home. They were expensive to build, and generally you only had one in a home, although most large homes did have a smaller staircase for the staff only. These separate staff staircases weren’t used by the owners or their guests – and most visitors wouldn’t know how to access them. This leads the owners and residents to believe there is only one staircase in the building; the grand one.
If the people living in these buildings believe there’s only one staircase, you can see the fatal flaw with this design. If that single staircase was to be the centre of a fire, then there’s no escape from upper floors. We previously talked about unusual fire escapes, mainly focusing on past inventions when fires were more prone. When fire regulations came into enforcement, one of their main focuses was a safe escape from the building. Stairways had to be enclosed in buildings to ensure fire couldn’t get inside and stop people from escaping. This is why you see a large number of buildings that also have enclosed stairwells on the ends, which can also be accessed from the outside.
Fire regulators focus on egress planning – the evacuation route from a building. The rules on egress change from country to country and are dependent on the size and purpose of the building. There must be enough doors, corridors and stairs for every person to exit safely.
The grand staircase is simply too dangerous and lacks a suitable egress for modern buildings. Regulations on egress and fire escapes spelled the end for grand staircase – until now.
Regulatory focus on egress stifled architectural innovation for years – and rightly so – in the name of safety. But architects can now experiment with more flexibility in their work, thanks to fire and smoke curtain technology. Fire curtains allow sections to be compartmented in the case of an emergency, allowing for architectural statements like the grand staircase to make a comeback.
Fire curtains can be tailor-made for their requirement. In the case of grand staircases, they can isolate an entire staircase, allowing for a safe and smoke-free exit. This also prevents the spread of damage from the fire, keeping the building structurally sound and reducing repair costs.
Fire curtains come in a variety of styles, from screens that drop from the ceiling, to horizontal dividers and concertinas that lower into spaces when activated. Some designs include the ability to continue walking through the curtains, giving a safe and easy egress route to escape.
Here at Coopers Fire, our wide range of fire and smoke curtains have allowed innovation in architectural design. We’re able to make buildings safe from fire, to the specific regulations required. We’re seeing some interesting and bold building designs emerge, thanks to the flexibility that our fire curtains give to architects.
Coopers Fire worked with the architects tasked with the refurbishment of Fortnum and Mason’s 300-year-old building, to ensure it passed all fire regulations. To achieve this, we installed 16 FireMaster® active fire curtain banners at the entrance of each floor, which remained hidden in the ceiling until needed. When activated, all of these curtains deploy, compartmentalising the grand staircase and atrium – containing the spread of the fire for up to 2 hours.
This has allowed the architects to remove all non-loadbearing walls in the store, offering customers an open plan shopping experience.
Harris Calnan Construction Company came to Coopers Fire with a need to adhere to strict fire regulations in the residential sector. We set out to allow an open plan environment by compartmentalising the kitchen from the dining room in the event of a fire. We also installed a fire curtain that prevented smoke and fire damage to the upper floor from the internal balcony. This allowed the contractor to develop these beautiful open plan living spaces in the heart of London.
Nova is a mixed-use development in the heart of London. It’s comprised of 5 buildings offering world-class office space and high-end apartments, as well as restaurants and bars.
Nova needed help with fire regulation in a select few areas of their buildings. Coopers Fire worked to install a large multi-faced concertina curtain on floor 12, where a bespoke staircase was installed to allow a more free-flowing environment for the staff on floors 12 and 13. Our fire curtain allowed the design to adhere to regulations, while separating the floors when needed.
These are just a few of the projects that we’re proud to have worked on. You can see more case studies online.
At Coopers Fire, we design world-leading fire and smoke curtains that allow innovation in architectural design. We’re proud to bring back the architectural beauty of the grand staircase, alongside new and exciting developments in building design. | 2019-04-22T00:06:49 | http://www.firecurtains.co.uk/bringing-the-grand-staircase-back/ |

3,425 Weimaraner Dogs adopted on Rescue Me!
This map shows how many Weimaraner Dogs are posted in each state.
Weimaraner Rescue Information: The Weimaraner is a graceful gray gun dog. Weimaraners are rowdy, happy dogs. Weimaraners need discipline and strong leadership from the very beginning. This is not a breed for an inexperienced owner. Weimaraners are very territorial. A Weimaraner needs to be with people. Weimaraners are excellent with children but should be supervised around little ones because of the energy and size of the dogs. A Weimaraner can live in an apartment if it has plenty of daily exercise.
Weimaraner Trivia: Weimaraners are named after the Grand Duke of Weimar, who enjoyed hunting with this breed of dog. The intelligence of the Weimaraner has earned it the nickname, Dog With a Human Brain. Dogs similar to the Weimaraner existed in France in the 1200s in the court of Louis IX. President Eisenhower owned a Weimaraner. Grace Kelly owned a Weimaraner. | 2019-04-20T18:15:36 | http://weimaraner.rescueme.org/ |

With mercury levels continuing to soar across the United Arab Emirates, there is very little that anyone can do to find respite from the scorching heat. While some have alternatives, the case is not the same for many laborers in the region. Every day, there are many laborers who work during the blazing summer heat.
During Ramadan 2016, since the weather conditions around them could not be changed, Emirates NBD along with creative agency FP7/DXB and media agency MediaVest Spark enabled the laborers to take those weather conditions on and beat the heat this summer by introducing ‘The A/C Vests’.
The A/C Vests are unique vests specially made with submersible materials, different from the typical safety vests that laborers wear during the summer heat. With cooling mechanisms and refrigeration facilities being virtually non-existent on construction sites, these A/C vests function based on using something that’s easily available across all camps: Water.
All that needs to be done is to submerge the vests in water. And once the laborers put them on, within minutes they start to feel the effect of the jacket as it reduces the temperature by 5 to 7 degrees.
100s of these specially made vests were given to workers in Ramadan this year, with many more on the way as the bank’s Business Banking unit is reaching out to business owners across the country within the construction industry, with the video and the idea as direct marketing tools, to encourage implementation of ‘The A/C Vests’ across their workforce across sites and camps during the summer months.
Interested business owners or entrepreneurs are also encouraged to write to Emirates NBD if they’d like to help scale this idea further at [email protected]. | 2019-04-22T14:53:22 | https://arabianmarketer.ae/emirates-nbds-ac-vests-laborers-beat-heat/ |
For any trader or entrepreneur, the daily grind of reading depressing headlines and perusing a constant stream of data can be physically exhausting and mentally draining. While you may long for a vacation, for most of us, the demands of work are nearly ever-present. However, there is one great way to reset your brain and rejuvenate your spirit: Reading a great book!
No matter how hard I try, I can’t stop bouncing from one great book, and from one genre, to another. A good mixture of fiction, non-fiction, and provocative books are necessary for a well-rounded life.
If you agree, then you’ll appreciate this list of must-read books that you’ll want to add to your list. I understand, you probably have your 2017 reading list planned-out already. Well make room, you won’t regret adding these “un-put-downable” books!
Are you ready to get a glimpse of heaven?
Join Martha Brookhart Halda as she shares her incredible journey to the Other Side. Just be warned, you might not be the same after reading this book.
On a fateful night, Halda was thrown from her vehicle during a horrific car crash. She died not once, but three times. Then she came back. Her life changed forever, and when you read this memoir, you will find out why.
The Fragrance of Angels is filled with love and challenges. It is a tale about physical beauty, emotional upheavals, frustrations beyond compare, as well as spectacular triumphs.
There is also a surprise that I must admit, I never saw coming; it is something Martha realized when she visited Heaven, and you will soon know it, too.
This is a book that will lift you up, bring tears to your eyes, and laughter to your heart. Trust me, The Fragrance of Angels needs to be added to your reading list today.
SO… after reading such a wonderful book review, and being the first book mentioned in her 2017 recommended reading list, I am super excited for all the blessings coming my way this year. I also have a review coming from the Huffington Post. What a dream come true: not many authors receive this kind of coverage.
So… I’m not the best at Blogging, having only written three blogs so far this year.
I guess you’d need to revise that to pathetic at Blogging. However it’s amazing what can happen in a year. Time and life are so precious. I was reminded of this recently as my good friend Lilly was saying goodbye to the love of her life, after only having four or so precious years with him. Tony was by far too young to go, a victim of cancer, but yes Heaven has welcomed him, and because of this, I had another “Life” wake up call.
I needed to review this past year. I quit my job this December 18th….. Who does that? I mean who quits their job in December? Perhaps this is why my brother David calls me his crazy little sister. I bet there are a few more reasons than that!
I had one heck of a year; I switched from the escrow/quality assurance department to the sales department of the timeshare company where I’ve worked for the last 5 years. What was I thinking! While one department “I get” , I was never cut out for the other one. I sat waiting for my tour (my chance to sell and make commission for the day), which never happened. I should have had a tour; I had the sales numbers but no tour? The wheel of agents had been set askew. After my two days off, again nothing. I was never made to be a person who waits and does nothing. I prefer to be active, so “adieu to you”, and in a flash, I was gone.
This morning as I awoke, the feeling of “OH SH-T what did I do?” began to crawl up my spine. I got a text from a girlfriend from high school, Mindy Ramsey, who wanted 7 of my books. They wouldn’t arrive in the mail in time for Christmas; we decided I would deliver them to her mother’s house in Carlsbad (my home town). I figured I’d drive up, drop them off, and be on my way. Thoughts that I’m leaving for San Francisco with my love in the morning and packing needs to happen rang through my head.
When the door opened, I was surprised to see a charming little older lady. This lovely woman was 93, to be exact. I don’t know what I was thinking … but I was expecting a woman about 60… I still had my blonde head from high school, in that blonde moment I was thinking of our mom’s as they were at that time. Dah… Martha, you don’t even have your mother with us any longer. Funny how we can freeze someone to be perpetually at a certain age, or era.
I decided to review 2016. This year, almost to a year from the German version of my book being released, my book debuted here in the USA in English.
Yippy … I can finally read my own book. Happy that I didn’t have to “self publish” at a heavy cost. No I had actually been given (another God gift) the US publishing house of Open Books Press.
Last year in October 2015 my book debuted in German at the Worlds largest book fair, the Frankfurt Messe. I was feeling blessed and happy to join my publishing house ‘Sorriso” as one of their first titles. My book had finally made it to print; yet in German only. I knew I couldn’t read this ancestral language of the Brookhart’s, yet how happy I was my promise to God was now finally completed. I promised to tell and I had, in German at least.
Last month , November “The Fragrance of Angels” was selected as one of the finalist’s for Acorn Publishing Authors Circle Awards. What a privilege. Fingers crossed when they announce the winner in May 2017.
The past six months I was off work for a medical leave, searching for what ailed me. I was informed I have degenerative rheumatoid arthritis in my feet, hands, and worse in my hips… all a residual result of my car accident detailed in “The Fragrance of Angels.” The cure? None. The only one to be offered was a referral to a pain specialist. Well that’s not going to be me. I am happy, No Ecstatic, to say that one of the cures is to Keep Moving. Moving, walking or whatever gets me outside is a treat to me, and moving keeps the stiffness away. The movement, and so many great natural supplements that are waiting to be found by me. This was reminded to me as I spoke with my new cute 93-year-old friend. She broke her leg last year and moves slower now, but she told me about being encouraged at 91 to do a 5K. Can you imagine?
Reviewing more on July 10th, 2016, my book was part of Carlsbad Magazine, which offered a list of the Top 5 Summer reads of Carlsbad locals. I feel so honored to be a part of it! There are so many reasons, not to mention Wendy giving me one of the best compliments I could have asked for, which is, “Halda just tells her story and what she learned, without being preachy.” That was exactly my intent, so it’s wonderful to know that I achieved this.
A gift, truly a gift, found in what could have been viewed as a horrible thing. I’m smiling again as I think how; if we look for ,and most importantly listen, to Gods “taps “ on our shoulders and not wait for his sledgehammer to Hear Him, we will be amazed at all the splendid care He takes over our lives.
We’re all looking for something we can rely on, and love is the source most people need. We are all searching for that unconditional love. Like talks with 93 year old women that we’ve never met before.
I believe the Love that engulfed me was far too great to be judging, that the God I saw, the Divine Energy I met, the pulsating sphere of Total Knowledge, would want us to reflect each year and hopefully we can all see the wonderful gifts he gave us this year.
Merry Christmas, We’ve got a lot to learn but God knows we are worth it.
WOW, am I ecstatic! My first literary review in English, of The Fragrance of Angels, came out in my hometown mag, Carlsbad Magazine. What a wonderful feeling.
Wendy Hinman put together ‘Summer Reads, Carlsbad Style”, with the opening of “stretch out your beach towel with books from local authors,” and what a list she put together. I feel so honored to be a part of it! There are so many reasons and people in this issue that make it feel complete, not to mention that Wendy gave me one of the best compliments I could have asked for, which is, “Halda just tells her story and what she learned without being preachy.” That was exactly my intent, so it’s wonderful to know that I achieved this.
She starts out mentioning the renowned local author Victor Villasenor and how his stories describe recognizable environments, and that it is an encore of sorts for the 2016 reading list. I wrote my book honoring a promise to my father, Ray Brookhart, who Villasenor describes in his memoir Burro Genius (pages 296-297.) My father had been one of Villasenor’s teachers, and Villasenor’s words about my Dad describes him to a ‘T’.
However, there is more to this tale. A Fragrance of Angels stands between the magazine’s covers with friendly faces and names. There was Caulerpa Conquest, written by a new friend, Eric Noel Munoz, which covers the story of an invasive marine seaweed that nearly smothered the Agua Hedionda Lagoon. Eric was among the key members of a community and statewide effort to eradicate Caulerpa taxifolia from the lagoon. This book was edited by my honey Robert Yehling, so I have a little more understanding of what a huge accomplishment this effort was.
Next, Shirts & Skins was written by local legend Gregory R. Nelson, Sr. I got to know Greg first at about the age of ten. Greg was like a big brother, a type of counselor of sorts. When he first started out, Greg worked with my dad at The Army Navy Academy and Greg was the cool young guy when I attended summer camp there. The book relates how sports can help create the drive, direction and passion in a man or women, a drive and habit that can later present itself well in business and life. Greg spent years, and many of his philanthropic talents and dollars, raising boys to men at the Carlsbad Boys Club. I also knew him from golfing; we had been members at the same country club. During my coma (detailed in The Fragrance of Angels) he and his stunning wife, Barbie, asked their kids’ youth group to pray for me for the two months I was under. They later told me that my recovery was a beacon of sorts for those kids. I am honored to be in the same summer reads reviews as Greg.
I don’t know author Cynthia Mestad Johnson, but I can’t wait to read her book Legendary Locals of Carlsbad. I’m sure once again to feel at home reading stories of our wonderful town, many of which I may have already heard.
The piece d’resistance, when it comes to being at home, is that the cover story is about longtime good friend Billy Stang. The feature article, also written by Wendy Hinman is titled “Pure Stang Pure Stoke – the last of the great soul surfers.” I have to say Billy is certainly that… A Soul Surfer. It was great fun reading Billy’s story as he describes stories of the mid to late 70’s. Billy discusses how he gave up competition and the life of a professional surfer to stay real and keep his sport about the stoke and joy, not the greed.
I have to say this first literary review could not have been more perfect for me. Everyone in this group of authors did exactly what Billy did — went out and wrote about what we have experienced, not for the cash, but for the pure stoke, the pure joy of life and love. What more do any of us need than that? Enjoy your summer with a good book, a book that can take you anywhere you want to go.
This February 2016 has proven to be a very fantastic month for me. After traveling to Frankfurt, Germany in October for the debut of my book at the Frankfurt Buchmesse, the world’s largest book fair, the flurry had started to settle down. Life was getting back to normal with the grind of learning a new job.
However, on the first week of the month, a box arrived, filled with over 20 copies of Der Duft des Engels, the German version of A Taste of Eternity, published by German publisher sorriso verlag. It was overwhelming when I saw my face in a photo plastered on the wall of the book booth in Germany, but to actually hold my book in my hands? With my picture on the back cover and “author” under it? Well, this blew me away.
Now to top things off, for this magical month, I just signed a Publishing Agreement with Open Books Press to print A Taste of Eternity in English with a release date of September 1. If you’re an author, September 1 is one of the most coveted publishing dates of the year — it’s holiday shopping season, and a time when people start to move toward the holidays themselves… which have a central place in my book. I start the book with “life can be summed up in three words, family, adventure, and perseverance. “ This still holds true for me and it has been with all three that this loving project has been able to come full circle, and allow me to fulfill my promise that I would write this book.
On my 53rd birthday, my crazy streak popped up. Bob had seen it the previous summer, when we bodysurfed 10-foot waves in Carlsbad and marveled about it later on Oceanside Pier, which shook from the waves whose spray hit onlookers’ faces. He also remembered how, when we were in high school, I was one of the few girls to bomb down the steep La Costa hills on a skateboard.
But I jumped. I went for it. Why not? This is my life — and I’m going to live it to the max. I am not afraid of what comes next. I’ve seen it. I look forward to my return.
I continue to be excited and motivated by the visions I received during my near death experience, my Taste of Eternity. I will also keep up my search and understanding about religions and how they are changed from the ways they were originally practiced.
I am a Christian, as in Jesus Christ is my divine teacher. I completely honor other religions and know that the All Powerful, Loving God Energy I met in Heaven would not condemn others for following their religion with the depth of their heart and the example of their actions. My focus is to love and be loved, none of that judging and condemning stuff for me. I know I am far from perfect (isn’t that an understatement), and I tend to over-react when I feel I’m wronged. This whole experience is not one I would ever change, my desire in writing this book has always been to share the incredible love and beauty I know awaits us when we die – we’re not alone as we travel to Heaven. God sends us each an Angel, and He is the one holding us in his arms all the way to Paradise.
Christmas often makes people stop to acknowledge all their blessings. The end of this year 2015, I am doing just that exactly.
October 15th, 2015, I entered the Frankfurt Messe book festival amazed by its size! With nearly 150,000 guests, and close to 40,000 venders working the trades show it was over whelming.
Once entering the correct (one of four) three-story buildings, I wondered how on earth the sorriso-verlag booth would be found. As we, Robert Yehling (aka Bob editor extraordinaire), and I went down the escalator he verbalized just this worry. My heart and mind halted because, with all his trade show experience, this was the last thing I expected to come from his lips. Worried… I started scanning the mass of booths on the floor below; the escalator seemed to move in a slow time warp, my eyes scanned everything. How will we find it in this seemingly endless crowd?
However, I quickly learned that my publisher Karen Christine Angermayer is a master at marketing and doesn’t miss a thing. Her attention to detail is amazing; she had her logo set high smiling out at the crowds from the very top of her booth. That bright yellow smile of sorriso was like a beacon laying a guiding light for me.
As we walked closer to the booth, suddenly I saw my own face smiling back at me. The booth was white, its floor a bright yellow, and a photo of each of the five writers she was debuting was displayed in a large 3’ by 5’ headshot (a models dream) on the wall of the booth. Many writers dream of having their books make it to the European market, some wish that they would be given such presence from the publisher, my dream had now come true.
While in heaven I promised God, my heavenly father, the Divine Energy (too many names to chose only one), that I would share the loving grace that awaits us in Heaven. Once back on earth, after two months in a coma, the first thing I promised my earthly father, Ray F. Brookhart, was that I would write this book, and share the knowledge of the love that awaits us with all people interested in knowing more.
Our trip to Europe was full of wonder… the countryside God Germany and Austria are full of (God given) natural beauty, the likes of which a California girl doesn’t get to see often. We played in the sound of music filled city of Salzberg, enjoyed Mozart street music and so much more. We hiked the wonderful hillside of the Austrian Alps in St. Johanna all the while basking in the beauty of this life we have been give.
Again last week, another Christmas gift, I was blessed with a visit by my publisher Karen Christine Angermayer, and her charming love Pino, they were here from Germany for business.
We met in the coastal town of La Jolla California. While admiring the Pacific Ocean waves, and the many seal’s lounging on the beach.
We talked about sorriso-verlag extending the publishing of Der Duft des Engels to a more International European distribution.
I could not be more blessed, so this year 2015 and I am certainly whole-heartedly counting my blessings. I ‘am grateful for Gods blessings in my life yet again.
It has been a long road, the one that leads to Eternity… and to Germany. I feel so blessed in both cases, and am blessed yet again in the month of October.
It was in October 1999 that I had my Taste of Eternity, which lead to my wanting to write and publish my book about sharing the beauty I know awaits us in Heaven. Three years later in 2002 in October I was blessed, again, to be able to compete in the Dublin Marathon, to also be one of the top fundraisers in the US for the American Diabetes foundation.
Now finally… I am blessed, yet again in the month of October. This time that blessing comes in the form of my book making its debut. The title has changed, the language has changed, but it is going to market at The Frankfurt book fair, the world’s largest book fair. The title has changed from “A Taste of Eternity” to “Der Duft des Engels” which translates to “The Fragrance (or the Scent) of Angels”. So it will be on the wings of Angels that I fly to Frankfurt in 2 days on October 14th, 2015.
There are thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of authors who wish they would have their book printed in a foreign language, or make it to print at all. I am one of those very lucky few, that not only will achieve this, but it will be to release my first book. I feel like a southern bell making her Debut at the big ball. I want to dance and twirl and sing out loud I’m so pretty, I’m so pretty but really changing the words to I’m so lucky, I’m so lucky. Twirling just the same.
Please don’t think that the coincidence of all these wonders of good fortune happening in October is lost on my blonde California head. I accept that we are not the ones in control of our fates. I do completely believe that these gifts were a blessing from above. While reading a review on the book festival in Publishers Weekly, I had to take pause because there was a paragraph, which spoke directly to me. Now as I pack my bags to fly to Germany for this live time event, I do take pause, and review all the wonders of this life. I wanted to share this with you.
Whether you’re hurrying from meeting to meeting or just wandering the halls, try to pause for a moment to take it all in. Publishing has entered a new era. And the conversation is no longer about print or digital, Kuyper says—it is about meeting the needs of the consumer.
Books create worlds and new ideas. They help to shape our society and its values.
My desire in writing my book A Taste of Eternity is to do just that: I want you to experience (as much as a book will allow) my view of the Love I experienced and which is offered to each of us in Heaven.
Now, I get to do it halfway around the world, when A Taste of Eternity makes its worldwide reveal at the Frankfurter Buchmesse, a.k.a. the Frankfurt Book Fair, one of the three largest in the world.
I can’t believe my lucky stars that this is the place of my book’s debut! The Frankfurter Buchmesse takess center stage of Frankfurt every October (October is an auspicious month. My accident that led to my taste of Eternity happened in October 1999, and I completed a 26.2-mile full marathon in Ireland three years later — after being told I would spend my life in a wheelchair). Located on the banks of the river Main, with its skyscrapers intermingling with the historic part of town, it is often jokingly called “Mainhattan”.
The most famous son of the city by far is novelist, playwright, poet and philosopher Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, who was born there in 1749. During his lifetime, Goethe wrote the equivalent of 140 books 400-pages long (a task now fully appreciated). His protégé, Rudolf Steiner, established the education philosophy we know today through the Waldorf Schools. Now, Goethe’s legacy is preserved by the book fair.
The Fair is a vibrant publishing landscape, Dynamic! It’s international, interactive and inspiring. The gathering place for the Who’s Who of publishing — publishers, agents, film producers, booksellers, and authors! It’s clearly the most important marketplace for books, media, rights and licenses worldwide. The industry comes together to create something new.
More than 7,000 exhibitors are expected from over 100 countries. Frankfurter Buchmesse will be home to publishers from Asia, the Arab world, Australia, Canada, France, Greece, India, Iran, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Latin America, Netherlands, New Zealand, Portugal, Scandinavia, Spain, Southeast Europe, Turkey, UK, and the USA. Having my Book debuted there offers the opportunity not only wished for by authors worldwide but hopefully (I pray) will give me an opportunity to expand my network, build bridges into the future, and make new memories and discoveries.
I promised God, and my ‘Pop’s” Ray Brookhart that I would write this book. They asked me to share all the memories I could layout there, describing the Divinity of Heavens Colors on my empty white pages. Feeling guided all the way, God has made this Heaven sent.
When Martha Halda sweeps into a room, people notice — immediately. If you don’t notice her long, rangy presence, then her smile will light you up. Her laughter shakes the edge off the toughest moments, and her closest friends often find themselves on the receiving end of lips, hearts, winks, sun-faces and other emoticons during texting sessions.
There is definitely a playful, childlike side to the author of the riveting new memoir A Taste of Eternity, one that visibly brightens the worlds of others. Imagine the most loving, vivacious, adventurous playmate popping into your house and hauling you outside, only this playmate has kids that are 30 and 27. Her playfulness is a lesson to us all not to take life too seriously; her ability to brighten hearts and souls comes from more than that.
It has been almost sixteen years since Martha’s life ended, revived, ended, revived, ended… and changed forever. On October 8, 1999, a car accident left her for dead… and then took her away. Before the night was over, she had been officially pronounced dead three times. Her ensuing Near Death Experiences (NDEs) brought her face to face with the Divine in a vivid way she recounts in A Taste of Eternity. More importantly, they changed her life, and how to handle its challenges while constantly seeking to bring out the greatness in others — definitely the dance of an angel.
The world is about to share Martha’ s journey. A Taste of Eternity will be published in Fall 2015 by Sorriso Verlag in Germany. It is scheduled to be presented at the prestigious Frankfurt Book Fair, one of the world’s five largest. Negotiations continue with American publishers, with a 2016 publishing date.
Now that she’s finished the long process of writing such a poignant memoir, Martha sat down to discuss her journey, and what comes next. As usual, the conversation was spiced with equal parts reflection, wisdom, laughter, and direct honesty.
WJ: Congratulations on finishing A Taste of Eternity. You were at it for quite awhile; must feel in a way like they’ve finally wheeled you out of the delivery room.
Martha Halda: That only takes nine months and a few hours of hard pushing! (laughs). Thank you. When I was in Heaven, I’d promised God I would write about my experiences there, and that was in 1999. A lot has happened since, but finally, I was able to sit down, put one story in front of the other, and get to this point.
WJ: What was the greatest joy — and struggle — you had with this book?
MH: Reliving it. I had difficulty trying to write down feelings and finding words for what I experienced; words became incredibly limiting. I just couldn’t get the stuff down. (At my life review in Heaven), trying to share my soul’s trials and tribulations from hurting someone… not an easy thing, because at some point, we have to admit our mistakes and face your faults. It’s hard to find the correct words. One of the ways around this was, I shared a lot of my review by sharing my story with Study groups, friends, to my love. As a writer, he helped me fine-tune the words. He fortunately — and also unfortunately — got to see me when it was overwhelming, when I smiled with joy, but he also got to see me when a memory came back so strongly I would cry uncontrollably and not be able to explain why.
WJ: The first part of A Taste of Eternity reads like otherworldly writing… because it is. What surprised you most about your Heavenly journey while your body lay on the road?
MH: What surprised me the most… not an easy thing to answer. I was caught off guard that God was not a larger-than-life Herculean figure, full of fire and brimstone, sitting upon a throne. He wasn’t looking to condemn me for all my faults and misdeeds. I had a few of those. This is hard to explain, but he did not have the appearance I expected, and yet I instantly perceived him as The Trinity — Father-Son-Holy Ghost. I do not have “enough words” to describe what I saw and felt. He has no name, no image, I recognized him instantly but still he was merely a sphere, a sphere of energy of the utmost Pure Love – God is Love.
WJ: One of the things we hear about is the ‘life review,’ essentially a high speed playback of our actions, good or bad. Could you describe that experience, and why it became the thematic building block both for A Taste of Eternity and the rest of your life?
MH: I learned that we must treat others the way we want to be treated. Eventually we will feel any hurt we place on others, whether it is intentional or not. I learned no one is better than any other person, not because they run farther, surf better, are more creatively gifted or more financially well off. We are each special in our own way. When our life is done, our relationships and memories are really all we get to take with us to heaven; the rest stays here.
Love and forgiveness are the strongest traits of the soul, because the heart governs the soul. It is a pure expression of God and what a wonderful thing to share. I am never ashamed or feel shy or embarrassed when I express my love for someone. Love is the beauty that gives the color to life, both here and in heaven.
WJ: There might be the most beautiful sentence we’ve seen in a long time. You’ve spoken to groups of some true skeptics, yet when you’ve made comments like this and shared your stories, everyone walks away saying, ‘She really was in heaven.’ But their skepticism was well founded: some NDE stories have proven to be anything but.
MH: You’re right, and that really bothers me. I really want to be careful here, because any experience authentic and profound enough to be written about is something we should look at. However, I don’t understand why anyone would want to willingly and purposefully write a book on NDE if it wasn’t a truthful experience. To write on this subject for me came strictly from my promise to God that “I would tell of his love”. Other than that promise, this would not have been a choice subject. I am sometimes greeted with less than open arms, and sometimes I receive cruel comments like, ‘Oh, so you think you’ve been to Heaven…’ Now that is hurtful.
WJ: One reason people will buy A Taste of Eternity is because their souls yearn for something greater than they experience on earth — and you paint a vivid picture of that ‘something greater’. Why are we so fascinated?
MH: I believe people want to know they matter, that their life wasn’t some fleeting moment with no meaning. They may receive a second chance to correct life screw-ups, and it’s important to know the value of doing so. I felt that was one of my obligations in writing this book. I, for one, want to believe our trials and tribulations are there for some greater good, to use as a marker in our life, or to be there for someone else to learn from.
WJ: That’s a yearning people often don’t share for fear of ridicule — but you’re bringing out into the open.
MH: People have been fascinated by this question for centuries. They just might be more open to showing it now. For centuries, one wouldn’t consider letting anyone know they wondered about the soul’s journey; in many places, this could mean being condemned, or worse.
MH: I can, I shall, I will, dance in the spotlight of God’s love. With that, Martha left — but not before texting out a few hearts, stars, angels and smiling faces. In a sense, heaven-sent. | 2019-04-23T08:45:42 | https://atasteofeternity.wordpress.com/ |
