Steamed Rice – Arróz Blanco
To use a rice maker or not? That is the question. I am not partial to them. Rice is so easy to make that I don’t see the point of not making it from scratch. It’s not rocket science.
I have been making rice my whole life and except at a party when a freind took off the lid and stirred the rice, it has always come out nothing less than perfect.
The Dominican housewife or cook would not even think of cooking rice in anything other than a caldero: a round bottom pot, usually made of cast iron that makes it easy to scrape the concón (the stuck crispy rice at the bottom of the pot). Puertoricans call it pegao. It is a delicacy and something you offer to your guests. So, that’s, yet, another reason to not use a rice-cooker.
- 2 cups of rice
- 4 cups of water (if you like a grainy rice, reduce this amount to around 3 3/4 cups)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp olive oil
This is a caldero. This beauty is available at Walmart.
Step by Step Instructions
Mix water, oil and salt and bring to a boil.
Add rice and stir. Lower heat to medium. Cook uncovered until the level of the water is just below the level of the rice.
Cover and cook over low heat for 20 minutes. (Don’t be tempted to look at it or stir it. Leave it alone). If you let out the steam it won’t be steamed rice!
Remove from heat. Stir and leave covered for another 5 minutes. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
A slot is a dynamic placeholder that either waits for content (passive slot) or calls out for it (active slot). Slots work in tandem with scenarios and renderers to deliver contents to the page. Scenarios use Add Items to Slot action or a targeter to fill the slot with contents while renderers specify how these contents will be displayed on the page.
When it comes to playing casino games, there is a lot of information that you may need to keep track of in order to maximize your chances of winning. For example, you may want to know which symbols are the best ones to look for and what their payouts are. Having this knowledge can help you decide which slots to play and which ones to avoid. In addition, some slots also have bonus features that you can trigger during the game.
These extra features can offer a much more engaging gaming experience. For example, a VR slot offers immersive gameplay with more live-like graphics, while a multi-game slot can allow players to choose between several different types of games. Additionally, slots that allow players to make coin bets can add another level of engagement to the game by giving them a sense of control over how much they want to wager and whether or not it is worth their while to chase big wins. Ultimately, this added level of control can help to transform the way that people perceive and interact with casino slots. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Jeet Heer in Slate revisits the story of Fredric Wertham, an American psychiatrist who started a campaign against comic books in the 1940’s and 50’s, arguing that they promote juvenile delinquency and homosexuality. The campaign was a great success, culminating in mass book burnings and Congressional hearings. Many publishers went out of business and the rest were forced to accept a draconian censorship regime.
The comic book industry was devastated and never fully recovered. At the same time, perhaps by coincidence (though I think not) the American animation industry began a slow decline that was never reversed; by now it has almost disappeared.
At the same time, probably by coincidence, the manga industry was taking off in Japan. That in turn led to the anime industry. Today both art forms, originally pioneered by Americans, are dominated by the Japanese. Perhaps this says something about the power of mass hysteria. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Only About Half of Folks Would Tell New Sex Partner If They Had an STD
Only about half of people with a sexually transmitted disease would tell a new partner about their infection before having sex, a new review finds.
Fear prevents many people from revealing their STD to a new sex partner, according to the combined results of 32 previous studies.
Other reasons include believing that condom use provides enough protection; the lack of obligation that comes with a one-night stand; or anxiety over losing the relationship.
Some study participants even described "passing"as uninfected so they wouldn't have to reveal their STD, results show.
"Individuals diagnosed with STIs [sexually transmitted infections] may be in vulnerable positions and may face difficult decisions, the outcomes of which can be harmful to their identity and relationships. The process of disclosure is complex,"concluded the research team led by Kayley McMahan, a sexual health coordinator with the University of Tennessee.
About 1 in 5 people in the United States have an STD at any one time, with more than 26 million incidents reported to health services, researchers said in background notes.
Chlamydia, gonorrhea and syphilis have been at record levels and continue to rise, they added.
People who disclosed their illness to their partner did so out of love, a sense of moral obligation, or feelings of having a strong, close relationship, researchers found.
"One of the key factors that determines whether an individual will disclose is the intended receiver,"the researchers said. "How the receiver will react and respond, and the relationship with the receiver, can be critical influences on the discloser."
Ignorance regarding sexual health also contributed to people's decision not to disclose their STD, researchers said.
For example, people with herpes thought they can't pass it to a partner if their herpes was in remission, which is not true. They also thought that a condom would be enough to prevent transmission -- another falsehood.
The new study was published June 5 in the Journal of Sex Research.
Comprehensive sex education could help people make smarter decisions that better protect the health of their sex partners, researchers said.
"A lack of sexual health knowledge indicates that many individuals are not receiving sufficient comprehensive sexual health education,"the researchers said in a journal news release. "This is not surprising, particularly in the United States, as comprehensive sex education remains taboo, rather than the norm."
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has more about sexually transmitted diseases.

Everything has to start from something…..like this picture above, to create a new meal, you have to start with the basics and build from there! So too, is Life! If you chose to have something you must start somewhere and build upon that!
We will give you and example, when BUZZARDSKORNER OF LOVE first began we started with a blog page, and blogged for five years, then we went into Radio and have done that going on our 5th Season and then we built our website, and then we built our YouTube Page, and then we went into Win Win Women TV, and then we have rebuilt our Website again yet, our whole point is we started with our Blog Page.
And life is the same way as life is also a process. It takes patience, willingness to move forward, courage, strength, and more yet, upon each block that you build upon the momentum becomes stronger and before you know it you can look back and truly see what you have created.
We are reminding myself and you as well that everything is a process and it is when we desire to skip over the process that life can become upside down! Insanity is an upside down mindset moving through life!
Give yourself permission to enjoy the process of life. Give yourself permission to enjoy the pace of life and your involvement in it. Give yourself permission to enjoy the process of your life because that is truly where the JOY of the journey is……In The Process….

THERE ARE NO SHORTCUTS! I used to think the same thing, that (and still occasionally do ) I “d walk this Spiritual Path and “find a different way” to walk my dark night of the Soul without having to actually sit down and FEEL my pain and FORGIVE myself and those that I have perceived to have “hurt” me and I was going to invent a “NEW” way of doing this and do you know I spent many many years only delaying and FOOLING MYSELF!
Don’t do that to YOURSELF! No, Walking your dark night of the Soul is not easy and yet in still, one of the ways to come into the light is through FORGIVENESS which brings the light and that has been that way since the beginning of time and, if you go all the way back to the times when our Great Way shower Jesus the Christ was walking this earth even he said that it is through FORGIVENESS that we are made anew and he was correct!
I AM who I AM today because I chose to walk my dark night of the Soul, I chose to allow myself to FEEL MY PAIN and it was NOT easy and I did NOT like it and yet I wouldn’t trade any of that for the world as all the work that I have done has put me right where I AM today. In my Kingdom, preparing myself to experience even more Heaven on Earth in a grander more peaceful, loving way and pulling up others to assist and guide them and THAT, my Angels makes it all worth it!
I AM worth it! YOU are worth it! Attempting to find SHORTCUTS only affects YOU! It is YOU who is still carrying anger around, It is YOU who is still upset with the world and yourself, It is YOU who wonders why all these different things you have tried haven’t worked and why you haven’t moved much. It is YOU who screams at the heavens “God why???” I’m here as an example Angels, DON’T DO THAT TO YOURSELF it did not serve me, all it did was delay my good!
In this microwave society that we have where everyone desires ALL yesterday or for everything to be “fixed” in 30 minutes or less and this Spiritual Path is NOT like that. This path helps you to remember patience, perseverance, faith, trust, cooperation, to honor YOUR feelings, to release & let go, to build strength and to FORGIVE! Without what is mentioned above in place you will never be able to TRULY step into the light, which is why on this path…….THERE ARE NO SHORTCUTS!

Adam Schiff’s Senate campaign announced a multimillion dollar, statewide ad buy for a spot that is most notable for who it singles out: Steve Garvey, the former Dodger great who is running as the highest profile Republican in a Democratic-dominated state.
In the spot, the narrator says, “Steve Garvey, the leading Republican, is too conservative for California — he voted for Trump, twice, and supported Republicans for years, including far right conservatives.
More from Deadline
“Adam Schiff, the leading Democrat, defended democracy against Trump and the insurrectionists.”
Isn’t it to be expected that Schiff, one of the most prominent Trump foes in Congress, would want to highlight Garvey’s backing of the former Celebrity Apprentice host in the past two elections?
Perhaps, but these are the dynamics of an open primary, where the top two finishers in the March vote will go on to the general election, regardless of party.
Pundits have long been saying that it would be in Schiff’s interest to have Garvey, or any GOPer, as a general election rival in November, rather than face an intra-party squabble with Porter or Lee. No Republican has been elected statewide in California since 2006.
But Schiff’s war chest is far greater than that of Garvey who, according to the latest campaign finance reports, has few resources to wage a statewide ad campaign.
As of Dec. 31, Schiff’s campaign had a whopping $34.9 million cash on hand, while Garvey’s bid had just $308,160, according to the latest data from the Federal Election Commission. Porter had $13.2 million, and Democrat Barbara Lee had $815,960.
Not too long after Schiff’s ad debuted, the campaign of his main Democratic rival, Katie Porter, accused him of a “cynical attempt” to boost Garvey, as more Republicans would be drawn to the idea of turning out for someone who is “too conservative for California” and who voted for Trump twice. At the most recent debate, Garvey sparred with Schiff and other candidates, driving up his publicity.
A poll of likely voters released today by USC showed Schiff leading with 25% of the vote, and Porter and Garvey tied at 15%, and Lee was fourth at 7%.
Porter wrote on Twitter, “Adam Schiff knows he will lose to me in November. That’s what this brazenly cynical ad is about — furthering his own political career, boxing out qualified women candidates, and boosting a Republican candidate to do it. We need honest leadership, not political games.”
Back in 2018, then-lieutenant governor Gavin Newsom took some heat from Democratic rivals for running a primary ad that highlighted Republican John Cox’s support for Trump. Newsom ended up going against Cox and winning the general election with almost 62% of the vote.
Matt Shupe, Garvey’s campaign spokesman, said in response to the Schiff ad, “Steve Garvey’s campaign has always been and will continue to be about bringing all Californians together for commonsense, compassionate solutions to today’s real problems, not trite political hatchet jobs. Californians are tired of this divisive rhetoric that aims to separate us into simple buckets against ourselves rather than unite us in common cause to better all of our lives. This is why Steve Garvey continues to rise in the polls.”
Among the two leading candidates for U.S. Senate — there are two very different visions for California.

Jesuit Heritage Week 2015: A Reflection
When I told most people that I was one of the co-chairs of Georgetown’s 15th annual Jesuit Heritage Week, the most common response I got was a puzzled look followed by the question, “Why?” Being a Hindu, female student at Georgetown, I don’t exactly fit the profile of the type of student you would expect to organize a week celebrating our university’s Jesuit heritage. However, attending Georgetown for the last four years has given me the chance to learn a lot about Ignatian spirituality, apply it to my own life, and strengthen my own faith. Over the last few years, my experience with Georgetown’s Jesuit identity has been not only inclusive, but also impactful. Attending a Catholic university has given me the chance to explore some of the most important spiritual questions from the lens of various faiths and has deepened my personal moral philosophy.
Being asked why I was organizing Jesuit Heritage Week so many times forced me to reflect on what the week really means to me and how exactly it impacted me. The reasons I wanted to help organize this week were to help students learn about and internalize some of the key Ignatian messages, to help expose students to more Jesuits and their wisdom in non-academic settings, and to celebrate the rich history of our university. During the week, we hosted speakers such as Fr. John Foley, the founder of the Cristo Rey school network, who illustrated tangible ways to live out some of the Ignatian ideals such as “being men and women for others.” We also organized events during which students could meet Jesuits and ask them about their lives at most of the faith services, Wolfington Hall, and even more informal settings like the new Bulldog Tavern.
The week turned out to be a reflective, energizing, and fun celebration of Georgetown’s Jesuit identity. By the end of the week, I was overwhelmed with gratitude for having been given the chance to attend a university that encourages me to question my beliefs and strengthen my spirituality. Some of the Ignatian messages that are fundamental to the university’s mission have now become an integral part of who I am and how I view the world. When I graduate in May, I will leave knowing that a piece of my heart will always belong to Georgetown.

Two of the Cape’s most exciting new stallions, Fire Away and Heavenly Blue, are set to be represented their first runners at Turffontein this Saturday.
The Wilgerbosdrift based Fire Away is set to be represented by his two-year-old son Fire ‘N Flames in Saturday’s 4Racing Maiden Juvenile Plate (800m), the first two-year-old race run this season.
Trained by Kobus Roux, Fire ‘N Flames, who gets the services of S’Manga Khumalo on Saturday, was bred by Ascot Stud.
The colt is out of the Silvano mare Silvan Jazz.
His sire Fire Away, who shares his sire War Front with more than 20 G1 winners, was a high-class galloper whose seven career wins included triumphs in all of the G3 Dixie Stakes, Danger’s Hour Stakes and Artie Schiller Stakes.
A half-brother to G1 Belmont Derby winner, and G1 sire, Mr Speaker, Fire Away is out of G2 Demoiselle Stakes runner up Salute -whose sire Unbridled also ranks as broodmare sire of outstanding sire Tapit.
Fire Away, whose granddam is unbeaten US champion Personal Ensign, had members of his first crop make up to R1 600 000 at this year’s National Yearling Sale.
Ascot Stud’s flashy resident sire Heavenly Blue will have his first starter in Saturday’s 4Racing Maiden Juvenile Plate (800m) in the form of Zinovi.
The latter, a two-year-old colt trained, like his sire, by Mike de Kock, will be ridden by Randall Simons on Saturday.
Zinovi, who was bred by Danika Stud, is out of the Jallad mare Zayna.
A son of four times Australian Champion Sire Snitzel (whose other sire sons include the likes of Shamus Award and Russian Revolution), Heavenly Blue was one of the best three-year-olds of his generation in South Africa.
The handsome grey finished first, second or third in seven of his 11 races, with Heavenly Blue’s biggest win coming in the 2017 G1 SA Classic.
Out of the El Prado mare Simply Carina, Heavenly Blue’s granddam is the Theatrical sired multiple G1 winner Astra. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Marvel Comics has just dropped five full weeks of December 2021 solicitations, and if that’s not enough, the publisher is also offering up a brief preview of some titles coming on January 5, including Sabretooth #1, Devil’s Reign: Villains for Hire #1, and Fantastic Four: Reckoning War Alpha #1.
Though the publisher has included the January titles on the schedule published with their December solicitations, it didn’t include full solicitation text, or even cover images at the time.
Still, we’ll break down everything we know about the few titles Marvel has advance solicited for January 5, starting with Sabretooth #1 by writer Victor Lavelle and artists Leonard Kirk and Rain Beredo.
According to Marvel, the five-issue series reveals what Victor Creed has been up to … and that it’s not what readers will expect.
(opens in new tab)
No stranger to Marvel fans of all media, Sabretooth/Victor Creed is one of the most popular X-Men villains and is Wolverine’s arch-enemy. Violent, bloodthirsty, and sociopathic, Sabretooth was the first mutant banished under Krakoa’s laws against killing humans in House of X, suffering the nightmarish threat of being trapped in an organic oubliette in the depths of Krakoa for all eternity.
“All eternity” seems to be up in January however, as he returns with his own title (whether it’s ongoing or a limited series, we can’t yet say). Perhaps his newfound release will come as a result of the upcoming Inferno limited series, which brings many of the themes of the Krakoa era X-Men titles to a head.
Sabretooth #1 will have a cover by Ryan Stegman, JP Mayer, and Frank Martin, seen above.
Sabretooth also got mashed up with Black Panther in Marvel’s December’s Villains’ Reign’ variant cover theme.
Then there’s Devil’s Reign: Villains for Hire #1, which was briefly mentioned as an upcoming tie-in to Daredevil-centric limited series Devil’s Reign, in which Kingpin sets his own team of Thunderbolts after Matt Murdock and Elektra. In this case, though little is known about the exact content of the issue, we know Devil’s Reign: Villain’s For Hire #1 is a one-shot, thanks to the previous mention of the title.
(opens in new tab)
Finally, there’s Fantastic Four: Reckoning War Alpha #1. Marvel often uses the ‘Alpha’ designator to signify the start of a crossover or event story, so it stands to reason that this issue marks the launch of the previously announced FF-centric ‘Reckoning War’ story.
Interestingly enough, Fantastic Four writer Dan Slott has been mentioning the concept of the Reckoning War as a future Marvel Universe event since his She-Hulk series all the way back in 2005, with the latest mention coming at the hands of members of the Time Variance Authority in September 15’s Fantastic Four #35.
Stay tuned to Newsarama for more information on these titles as it’s revealed.

Medical device startup exits stealth mode to name CEO, announce $21M in funding
Jupiter Endovascular, a California-based subsidiary of Neptune Medical, has exited stealth mode and announced a new financing round worth $21 million. The company’s primary focus is developing its new Endoportal Control technology and establishing new endovascular procedures that “bring the precision and control of direct surgical access to catheter-based interventions.”
Sonder Capital and other strategic investors contributed to the funding round. The money is expected to help support new clinical research into the safety and effectiveness of treating pulmonary embolisms with Endoportal Control, a new interventional device designed to travel through a patient’s body and provide care from an endovascular access point. Additional funds will also go toward researching new applications for the technology.
Jupiter Endovascular also announced its arrival by naming industry veteran Carl J. St. Bernard the company’s new CEO. St. Bernard has decades of leadership experience in the medical device space, holding leadership roles with CeloNova BioSciences, Tryton Medical, Johnson & Johnson Vision, LifeCell, Cordis, and GE Healthcare.
“The Endoportal Control technology, which leverages Jupiter’s unique and exclusive intellectual property to create a catheter-based device that flexibly navigates through a patient’s vasculature before fixing into a stable position, is designed to give interventionalists the confidence and support they need to deliver a prescribed cardiovascular therapy,” St. Bernard said in a statement. “This represents a generational advance in technology with the potential to revolutionize the treatment of millions of patients worldwide.”
“For decades, the field of catheter-based therapies has been limited by the technological constraints of catheters that lose stability and control within the anatomy,” added Kate Garrett, managing partner at Sonder Capital. “Jupiter Endovascular has developed a revolutionary approach with the potential to overcome these constraints by providing clinicians the precision and control of a surgical approach while maintaining the minimally invasive profile of an endovascular procedure.” | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Time to enter a dungeon — a dungeon composed of dice! — to kill monsters and score as much as possible.
In Dungeon Academy, each player has a piece of paper that shows four dungeons, with each dungeon being a 4x4 grid. The game lasts four rounds, and in each round you will go through one of these dungeons. Each player also has a character card that shows some amount of life (red) and mana (blue) along with a special power.
What's actually in a dungeon is determined by dice that you roll at the start of the round. You roll sixteen dice, then let them settle in a 4x4 grid. The dice show red and blue monsters in both small and large sizes, as well as blue potions and red strength. You decide where to enter the dice dungeon and which dice to pass through in a continuous line that can change directions only orthogonally, and you draw this corresponding line on your personal grid until you exit at some other point of the dungeon without crossing over your line. You then claim the lowest available number card, with the number of cards matching the number of players.
Once everyone has finished drawing a line through the dungeon, you trace out that path step by step, removing life (1 or 2) to defeat red monsters (small or large) and mana (1 or 2) to defeat blue monsters (small or large). You place new tokens on your character as you pass through potions and strength spaces. Once you're through the grid, you score points for the monsters you defeated, and you choose one of four quests on your sheet for bonus points. (In the second round, you choose one of the three remaining quests, so your choices diminish over time.) In player order based on your number card, you take one of the available treasures, which provide points and powers. Your life and mana levels carry over into the next round.
In the second and third rounds, you replace one of the dice with a labyrinth die that can be passed through only in certain directions, and in the fourth round another die is replaced with the big boss die, giving you something giant to take on before ending the game and tallying your final score. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Is workplace conflict good or bad?
Is conflict good or bad? Workplace conflict is an uncomfortable but unavoidable part of every organization, and it can be good or bad depending on how you deal with it.
Conflicts can be bad if the differences are not addressed, if the expectations are not controlled, or if the individuals involved do not desire to find a solution. Therefore it is crucial to identify where the workplace conflict came from and act accordingly.
We often see conflict as negative or a struggle. But what if conflict is good? What if it opened up communication and built stronger relationships? Conflict is an uncomfortable but unavoidable part of every workplace. Yet conflict—if done right—is integral to organizational success. Today’s struggle leads to tomorrow’s breakthrough.

If conflict was HEALTHY for your business, would you encourage it?
Businesses who are open to disagreements and uncomfortable clashes, are more receptive to having open discussions, and to accomplish more.
Conflict can really drag a workplace down. In a survey of over 12,000 employees about their experience with workplace conflict, here is what we found:
- 70% The percentage of managers and executives who said interpersonal conflict negatively impacted the efficiency of their department
- 13% The average number of hours managers spend per month dealing with workplace conflict
- 40% The percentage of workers who said they have left a job as a direct result of unhealthy interpersonal conflict

The 12,3 percent increase in electricity tariffs this month will allow Zesa to pay for more imports, connect many new houses to the grid, executive chairman Dr Sydney Gata has said.
Energy regulator Zimbabwe Energy Regulatory Authority (Zera) approved a flat rate increase across all tariffs and tariff bands of 12,3 percent from New Year’s Day.
“We want to make sure that we deliver high quality services and this can be achieved with a proper budget and also be able to import electricity, that is the reason why we have increased the tariffs as the year starts.
“There is maintenance that needs to be done and this year we are going to be doing comprehensive maintenance of the system,” Dr Gata said in an interview.
Many suburbs, mainly the new ones, had no access to electricity and while Zesa charges connection fees, it also has to put in place new infrastructure such as the area high-voltage substations and feeder lines and the smaller lower voltage substations that serve the houses and businesses.
“The challenge is on the budgetary deficits to afford installation of electricity infrastructure. We are, however, thinking of coming with a plan to facilitate connection of new stands. We are going to embark on expansion project were 300 000 residential houses are going to be on the electricity supply grid this year”, said Dr Gata.
This comes after Zesa has pushed up electricity tariffs by 12,3 percent with effect from New Year’s Day which have seen families on pre-paid metres buying 200 units a month for $1 265,11 including the six percent rural electrification levy, up from just under $1,127.
There are five bands of discounted tariffs on residential supplies before the full $14,31 a unit comes into effect on all purchases over 400 units, although consumers on pre-paid meters can only have the advantage of the discounts on their first purchase each month.
Subsequent purchases in the same month are charged at the full price. Any residential consumer still on the old post-paid meters pays the same for the electricity in the same bands, but is also charged a fixed monthly fee, which covers the extra administration and the need to follow up on delinquent payers.

Biosecurity measures are critical for preventing the introduction and spread of infectious agents, including viruses, bacteria and parasites that affect chicken and human health. As such, ensuring optimal biosecurity is a core priority listed in the AgriFutures Chicken Meat Program RD&E Plan 2022-2027. The chicken meat industry invests significant resources into identifying, implementing, and improving biosecurity throughout the chicken meat supply chain.
ExoFlare, an innovative Australian technology company, has developed a software platform that provides an enhanced assessment of biosecurity risks to help prevent and control outbreaks across the chicken meat supply chain. This platform allows the industry to electronically monitor, measure, and identify opportunities to reduce biosecurity risks posed by the movement of people, items and equipment that may be contaminated with infectious agents.
ExoFlare allows producers to access real-time notifications of entry and risk assessments of anyone visiting farms or processor facilities such as hatcheries or feed mills. The risk management practices outlined in the industry’s Biosecurity Manual provide the basis for the assessment, and ExoFlare can be easily configured to incorporate additional company and site biosecurity requirements.
ExoFlare improves traceability and provides digitised risk data and information that can be further analysed by a company in real-time. This visibility and flexibility is useful for contact tracing people who’ve checked in across different sites operated by a single company during an outbreak. This process allows quarantine and biosecurity declarations to be made and approved electronically and information to be captured to inform the biosecurity risk that a visitor might pose (e.g. recent visits to other farms).

The Christian Science Monitor reports on a historic new trade deal between the mainland and Taiwan:
The deal, known as the Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement (ECFA), will lower tariffs on two-way trade that’s now estimated at around $120 billion annually and improve mutual market access in services, among other benefits.
The agreement steered well clear of politics, with officials from both sides insisting that ECFA touches only on economic issues. Indeed, the Chinese term for the deal refers only to “two shores,” making no mention of China or Taiwan’s official titles, and ECFA was signed by semiofficial representatives, not government officials.
But the deal is a sign of how much relations have improved between China and the self-ruled island it views as its own. Caught in a vicious cycle of mistrust and recriminations just two years ago, the two sides have since inked a dozen transport and commercial deals, with ECFA being by far the most important.

5 years ago I made a big choice, I hired a mentor for the first time.
I was already teaching yoga and offering private sessions, plus I was running my first women’s circles, but somehow I felt stuck.
I wasn‘t serving my clients in the way that felt aligned and successful for either of us.
I was exhausted running from one yoga studio to the next and I felt frustrated with one time sessions, because all we did was touch the tip of the iceberg.
At the same time it felt hard to put myself out there to fill up my women’s groups.
I knew I had everything it takes to change the lives of thousands of women but I couldn‘t bring the parts of my gifts together in a way that let me reach their hearts and wombs.
Making the choice to work with a mentor over a long term period felt super scary, completely nuts to be honest.
It was a big stretch for me personally but also financially.
Even though I knew I needed that support more than anything else, my mind found lots of excuses to not do it …
I can do it all myself.
I don’t have the money.
What if this doesn‘t work out and I bankrupt myself?
What if I have to push myself and eventually burn out again?
I had just arrived in Bali. I had hardly collected the pieces of my broken heart and life. I had lived mainly on my savings for the past few months.
In fear I called my parents and asked them for the first time in my life if they would have my back in case I fucked it up. But they said, no.
That was the moment I clearly knew I could only change the pattern I had been running all my life if I finally offered myself the possibility of a new experience and said YES to myself.
I had to collect my own self-worth, courage and trust to jump without a safety net.
And guess what, I was rewarded with more than I could have ever imagined.
The same principle applies for every aspect of our lives: love, sex or business.
If you don’t love yourself or your body, if you do not experience the pleasure or orgasms you would like, if your relationship feels difficult because of a lack of intimacy or you are frustrated in your work or you just know underneath it all there is way more for you, then you need support to change.
Playing with old tools isn‘t going to get you to where you want to be, or perhaps just as importantly, to how you want to feel from inside.
I know from all the work I have done with women in the last 5 years that you need someone who takes your hand and guides you.
A good mentor shows you a different approach, sees your shadows, helps you to move through resistance, gives you permission again and again and sees and believes in you even if you don’t.
So the question is … are you ready to jump?
If this completely terrifies you, I want to work with you. I’m taking applications now for transformational 1-1 work. If your are ready to stop hiding and say YES to reclaiming your feminine essence, sexuality and divine purpose apply here. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

“Letting go gives us freedom, and freedom is the only condition for happiness.”
– Thich Nhat Hanh
The human mind jumps around like a monkey. You are not going to stop it, because it is the nature of mind. The question is not whether your mind jumps around. The question is whether you automatically go with it.
On autopilot, our minds are often caught in regrets about the past, worries about the future, and anger, jealousy, or anxiety in the present moment. Mindfulness allows us to come back to the present moment and see reality clearly.
A clear mind sees that thoughts are just thoughts, and does not automatically believe what they say. There is space to recognize that you are not your thoughts, emotions or body. You are the one who is aware of them. A clear mind leads to understanding and wisdom.
An open heart is one that can hold your discomfort and suffering, and the discomfort and suffering of others, with openness, compassion and love. Love that comes from deep within and has the capacity to include everyone. The heart is naturally open, but reactivity causes it to close. You can develop the capacity to refrain from closing your heart. When the heart is open, you feel free.
Freedom does not mean you can do what you want or control things. It means you feel free even when things are not as you want. This is your natural state – joy, love, peace and enthusiasm.
However, when we resist difficult experience, we create tension and store negative experiences inside, where they block our natural positive state. These blockages cause a background sense of unease, and trigger us to experience negative emotions over and over again.
The solution is a clear mind and an open heart, which give you the capacity to let go of resistance, touch each moment deeply, and release your blockages. Freedom follows naturally.
A clear mind and an open heart are like two wings of a bird, taking you towards happiness and away from suffering. This website is dedicated to learning how to grow and develop these wings.
“Do not let anything that happens in life be important enough that you’re willing to close your heart over it.”
― Michael A. (Mickey) Singer, The Untethered Soul: The Journey Beyond Yourself
I teach mindfulness with an emphasis on dwelling happily in the present moment, experiencing each moment deeply, letting go of resistance, and recognizing that each moment is a gift. I draw on the teachings of Thich Nhat Hanh, Michael Singer’s Untethered Soul, Tibetan Awareness of Awareness, and others.
I’ve practised mindfulness and meditation since 2000 and guided since 2008. I spent over a year studying with Thich Nhat Hanh and am a member of the Order of Interbeing. I’ve also experienced a great many retreats with such teachers as Michael Singer, Ken McLeod, Shinzen Young, and Dan Schmidt.
Untethered Soul Course
What can you do each day to release yourself from fear and discover the natural joy and peace that are within you, always? Learn to let go! This 8-week course, based on the book, will teach you how to do just that.
How can you see your own blind spots? To understand and transform your mind can be difficult to do without the help of a friend on the path. I find the biggest insights come when working one-on-one with people. That’s why my course includes one-on-one consultations,
“What you resist persists.”

Get Compassionate Dog & Cat Euthanasia At Home in Crewe
When your pet is ailing, either through illness or age, sometimes there is only one last favour that you can do for them. Saying goodbye can be almost impossible. But by controlling the circumstances, knowing that they are not going to be suffering any longer, you can make it the smallest bit easier. We give you the choice of caring pet euthanasia at home in Crewe. In many cases, we have found that the animal companions we treat do not even realise our supportive Vet is there. Your pet can be surrounded by all of the things they love – their blanket, bed or toys – and, of course, you and the rest of your family should you wish to be present.
Putting a dog down or putting a cat to sleep causes them no pain. The only slight discomfort they feel is the tiny pinprick of the anaesthetic injection which makes them unconscious. After this, a larger dose lets them pass on peacefully. There is no need for any uncomfortable shaving or trips to your local veterinary practice while they are conscious. We often find that you will have questions about the process of pet euthanasia in home. You can call us at any time to ask your questions. We understand that the cost of putting a dog to sleep or cat euthanasia costs are often a concern. We will always be glad to talk to you about any aspect of the support we offer. Needing to know about cat or dog euthanasia costs in no way reduces the bond which exists between you and the beloved animal member of your family. In almost every way possible, choosing for pet euthanasia to happen at home is the final gift you can give your animal companion.
Your Local Solution For Pet Cremation in Crewe
After your adored animal companion has passed on, it is time to consider what happens next. We have found that by simply providing the stress-free, caring transport of your dearly departed to our local pet chapel of rest, we can make things easier for you. Whether you have relied on us to help them on their way or not, we can provide pet cremation for you wherever you are in Crewe. Our pet chapel of rest is ideal for both dog cremation and cat cremation and we offer both single and group ceremonies. After group animal cremation, we can spread the ashes in the peaceful grounds of the chapel, a service which you are welcome to attend. Talk to us about any part of animal cremation which has you concerned, from pet cremation costs to the process itself. We are always ready to talk to you.
Find the Most Suitable Pet Memorials for You in Crewe
The memories of the times that you and your beloved companion had together will be with you forever. But many people also like to create physical pet memorials. Either so they have somewhere to go to remember their pet, or a pet marker stone or another type of sign to mark where they have been laid to rest. Please discuss the pet memorials you have in mind with us whenever you feel up to getting in touch. We are always happy to help talk you through our range or to point towards where you might find something which matches the image that you had in mind. For everything related to pet euthanasia, pet pain relief and pet cremation, we are here to help and support you. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

closedAllow to run with custom configuration
When CocoMUD runs, it assumes its settings and worlds are located at the root. Safe assertion in most cases, but it might be a nice feature to add a support for a command-line argument, allowing to specify the CocoMUD's root. It would allow to run a build version with static configuration, for instance.
cocomud.exe --root-dir=<other path leading to CocoMUD's configuration>
Most information are not sensitive to the location where they are. The translations, however, should remain the same no matter the specified root directory. This constraint would prevent unpredictable code-breaking on translation changes.

Do you know any way that I can get hold of information around what sections or group breaks within a web report have been viewed?
I have a web report studio report with multiple sections and group breaks that is used by some of our users each morning.
The report is viewed every day but not necessarily every section and group break will be looked at.
We are going to start looking at what we can do to improve and/or streamline this report to alter what sections are really needed and if we can change some of the group breaks but we don't have any information on which parts of the report are used more or less than others.
Before I get the users to keep a tally in a spreadsheet of what they look at each morning I was wondering if there was any way of getting SAS to give me the information?
I have looked at the web report studio key actions log which can tell me which users have logged on and opened the report but can't see anything about which sections within the report have been viewed.
We are running SAS 9.4 TS1M3 with WRS version 4.4
Thanks in advance.
you will need to play a little bit with the Log4J Logging features at Lev1\Web\Common\SASWebreportStudio-log4j.xml, adding some new logging groups and perhaps extending the features from ERROR/WARN to INFO or even DEBUG.
I have used this previously, although for what you need, you will need to find your own answers or to contact SAS Technical Support.
Please read http://documentation.sas.com/?docsetId=logug&docsetTarget=n0alhzcadnvc8bn1a8agcbx55cm9.htm&docsetVer... , it should help.
Please be aware, some clases you will enable to be logged, or extended to INFO or DEBUG, will also extend the amount of information written in the log, which could impact on performance and the space the log will take from storage.
Hope it helps,

Ah, it’s that time of year again: for New Year’s resolutions. Some of us love them, some of us find them bittersweet, and some of us have sworn them off forever. At Workit, we tend to appreciate any good excuse for self-reflection and making goals: two healthy activities all year round, provided they come with a generous dose of self-compassion and moderation.
So, as promised, introducing the motherload of resolutions, the one that can help you with almost all your other 2017 goals. Drum roll please, here it is: knock your alcohol intake back a peg or two. Skeptical? Check out the Top 5 New Year’s Resolutions of 2016 (according to Nielsen). Curbing drinking boosts ability to keep every single one…
Top 5 New Year’s Resolutions of 2016 & How Cutting Down on Alcohol Applies:
#1. Staying Fit & Healthy: Chances are you’ve heard a thing or two about the benefits of moderate alcohol intake. It’s something that headlines love to tout, even though a study of 87 other studies this year suggested the reported benefits may be majorly exaggerated…
Regardless, one thing that has been well established by science is that when drinking alcohol crosses from “moderate” into “low risk” or “heavy” territory, a slew of negative health consequences follow. But what does moderation even mean, anyway? It’s important to know because the window between “moderate” and “heavy” might be smaller than you think.
A quick refresh: The NIAAA defines 1 drink a day as “moderate”, by 2 and 3 you’re already in “risky drinking territory”, and after that you’re into heavy drinking. For men, boot that total up by 1 drink, so 2 a day is “moderate”, and so on.
Have you been stretching the definition of “moderate”? Well now is as good a time as ever to ditch the Amy Schumer glass size and cheers to your good health in 2017!
#2. Maintaining a Healthy Weight: At roughly 150 calories a drink, alcohol can quickly add up to a lot of empty liquid calories, so if you are looking to get to a healthier weight then considering your alcohol intake may be a good place to start (according to the NIAAA). Furthermore, alcohol leads many of us into making unhealthy food choices and saps the energy we need to get a proper amount of physical activity.
#3. Spending Less and Saving More: It doesn’t take Dom Perignon for alcohol to put a dent in your wallet. Even the cheapest booze can add up to big bucks over time. The good news is this makes cutting down an easy way to free up some extra cash to save or spend on fun.
#4. Enjoying Life to the Fullest: This made the list of top resolutions for good reason! Afterall, what is life if we can’t live it to the fullest. And here’s the twist most people don’t expect: cutting down on the spirits can help you do that. If you are regularly crossing the moderation line, you’re most likely reaping negative consequences from your habits. Take time to give yourself a fresh start and clear head. You can always go back to your old ways if you want to, but give yourself a chance.
#5. Spending More Time with Family: Let’s be honest, drinking doesn’t do your relationships with loved ones any favors. But sometimes we can get in ruts where we feel like it’s the only way we can have fun, comfortably socialize or unwind. If that sounds like you, we can help! You don’t have to go it cold turkey or white knuckle your way through cutting back, we promise. Real memory making starts with being able to remember the good times! And getting there is possible. You (and your family) are worth the effort.

Global Continuity South Africa – a group company of JSE-listed Metrofile Holdings Limited – has strengthened its management team with the recent appointment of Greg Comline as its new General Manager. The appointment is in line with the group’s strategy to expand its current offerings to better cater for client’s requirements.
Commenting on his new role, Comline says he will drive efficiencies throughout the group’s operations to best deliver tailored solutions to meet clients’ needs. In line with this, Global Continuity is investing in appropriate technologies so as to deliver Business Continuity services efficiently.
Comline predicts that over the next 12 months local businesses will continue to improve their resilience for business continuity through virtualisation and mobile technologies. “We anticipate an increased demand for efficient online backups and for new ways for clients to use disaster recovery sites”.
In many ways, South African businesses are following the trends that we are seeing globally, says Comline. “Companies are becoming more resilient and are reducing the need for large work area recovery sites. As a result, companies are demanding efficient solutions from business continuity service providers. In alignment with this, Global Continuity South Africa is basing current and future investment on providing scalability and flexibility to clients through a range of solutions.”
Global Continuity South Africa will be working closely with Metrofile to expand its online backup solutions with the end goal of enabling clients to securely back up their data with faster recovery times, says Comline. “This will assist clients with the recovery of their operations, meaning that clients will be able to consolidate a number of services through Metrofile.”
Comline’s previous experience includes developing the Deloitte Digital business where he assisted clients with internet and mobile strategies and developing solutions based on changing technologies. Prior to Deloitte, he completed his Master of Business Administration through the Gordon Institute of Business Science and managed manufacturing systems at South African Breweries. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Beyond the detailed account of the institutional progress in the Momentum Plan for 2023, it is important to highlight that the College’s strength with respect to student success is not centered around this subset of strategies and activities, but it is a cultural commitment to supporting every student, every time, which is a golden thread woven throughout all college operations. In May 2023, this commitment was accentuated through the College-wide Student Success Summit – an event where faculty and staff came together to share ideas, to collaborate with colleagues, and to have strategic conversations on how to promote student success. Coordinated by core members of the Student Success and Completion team, this event resulted in numerous ideas and strategies to pursue, but most importantly, it unified participants around a common strategic purpose.
The Student Success and Completion team continues to meet, now in the form of workgroups with detailed action plans around student success, engagement, and guidance. Other strategies and activities not included in this report continue to be adjusted and revised to maintain a proactive approach to supporting students, and include (among many others):
- Intrusive and proactive success monitoring campaigns:
- Course engagement monitoring during the first week of classes,
- Attendance monitoring during the second week,
- Early alert reports during weeks 3-4,
- Midterm course attendance and engagement evaluation during weeks 7-8,
- Academic risk assessment during weeks 9-10,
- Advising and registration support throughout the term, and
- Weekly “Always Alert” referrals.
- Through various communities of practice and engagements led by the Center for Teaching and Learning, faculty often engage in discussion and activities (like book groups) to promote best practices and identify opportunities to promote student success.
- Administrative processes and procedures are regularly evaluated to ensure that they are not presenting roadblocks to students, and are helping the institution deliver a seamless and supportive student experience.
Observations and Next Steps
Through the work of the Student Success and Completion Team, the College has adjusted numerous processes to improve the transition to college, by reducing barriers, providing guidance, and promoting a sense of belonging through more supportive language in all communications. Additionally, intrusive monitoring campaigns and protocols have been devised and implemented to keep students on track to progress and graduate. However, while all the changes implemented in the last couple of years have been intuitively positive to promote student success, our fall-to-fall retention rate for First-time Full-time Freshman is still at 52.6% (Fall 2022), which is just a marginal improvement from the post-pandemic rate of 52.2% (Fall 2020) and far from the retention rate prior to the pandemic which was at 60.6% (Fall 2019). This is a concern recognized across the institution and faculty and staff have embraced this as a challenge to address collectively and from every interaction, process, and activity.
Institutional displays of commitment to promoting students success, like the creation of the Annual Student Success Summit, the creation of the Student Success and Completion Team, the creation of the ENDEAVOR Center for High Impact Practices, the establishment of First-Year Experience Course (DECK 1000), and the integration of career and academic planning as the Quality Enhancement Plan, are all indicators that the College continues to be a dynamic institution working to address emerging challenges and student needs. From this continuous improvement culture, the College will continue to evaluate processes, procedures, and structural elements of the educational enterprise to ensure that students are challenged in the classroom by the rigor of academics and not impacted by structural or motivational obstacles. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Ethanol is a key ingredient in fragrances, but it’s not always a sustainable product.
Beauty company Coty Inc., is pivoting toward carbon-captured ethanol, which requires nearly zero water consumption. The company has committed to employing sustainability practices for the majority of its fragrance portfolio by 2023 to lower its carbon emissions and limit impact on biodiversity.
This marks the next step in Coty’s partnership with LanzaTech, first established in March 2021. LanzaTech manufactures CarbonSmart by capturing and fermenting carbon emitted by industrial activity before it is released to the atmosphere.
According to the company, these products will be the world’s first globally distributed fragrances made using carbon-captured ethanol. Fragrances should be reaching store shelves in the coming months.

Coty’s sustainability efforts and partnership with LanzaTech are being led by chief scientific officer Dr. Shimei Fan, who joined the company in January 2022.
“Coty’s accelerated release of fragrances made using carbon-captured ethanol represents the groundbreaking sustainability progress that I joined Coty to lead,” said Fan, adding that this next step demonstrates the company’s ability to exceed ambitious clean and green roadmaps set for the future.
Dr. Jennifer Holmgren, chief executive officer of LanzaTech, said the company has made its first delivery of carbon-captured ethanol after two years of working alongside Coty scientists.
"We are excited to see Coty bring the first globally distributed fragrances made from CarbonSmart ethanol to market, so consumers can choose products made from recycled carbon," she said. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
MANILA, Philippines—Carrying the distinction of the Korean Basketball League’s Rookie of the Year won’t be any problem for RJ Abarrientos as he jumps to the Japanese B.League.
During the league’s preseason online press conference on Wednesday, Abarrientos said that winning the KBL’s ROY title isn’t giving adding pressure on him to deliver re for his new team Shinshu Brave Warriors.
“I don’t think it’s going to add pressure during my first year in Japan. I just want to play basketball and enjoy the game,” Abarrientos said.
“That rookie of the year was something special, but this is the Japan B. League, the next league for me to showcase my talent.”
Abarrientos was hailed by the KBL as 2023’s best rookie for the Ulsan Hyundai Mobis Phoebus before things got complicated.
Ulsan made the decision to terminate Abarrientos’ contract a few months ago after the guard expressed interest in playing for another league.
The Far Eastern University product had at least two more years to play for Ulsan from his Hyundai Mobis Phoebus contract.
Abarrientos played stellar for Mobis Phoebus in 51 games, helping the squad reach the KBL Playoffs. He posted norms of 13.6 points, 4.8 assists and 2.9 rebounds per game.
Now in a new uniform, Abarrientos said he’s carrying the same confidence he wore back in Korea.
“You know, my confidence is there always. We know that the Japan B. League is one of the toughest leagues in Asia, but for me, as a professional athlete, I need to be more ready, physically and mentally to help the team.” | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

What does ChatGPT think about its own effects on the world of post-production?
Posted by Brie Clayton on March 8, 2023 at 6:59 pmGraham McGuinness of Jigsaw24 Media interviews ChatGPT, and we begin to define the parameters of our future…
March 20, 2023 at 12:39 pm
Interesting article, thank you, although one might suggest that any answer coming out of ChatGPT would be “generative AI”. Helping keeping professionals in the Post Production business informed (You have to read the article to understand the somewhat down-played joke).
But the real biggie that is missing, even though Adobe is mentioned twice, it did not care to include Adobe Sensei. (https://www.adobe.com/uk/sensei.html)
Is this because an older version of ChatGPT was used?
How the questions were formulated?
Or, is Adobe missing a trick in their SEO/web-tags?Nevertheless, maybe we should start thinking of Adobe Sensei being both a tool for “AI and generative AI” in Post-Production?
As it becomes everyday use for many of users working with masks and removing objects, it is difficult these days to live without the Content-Aware Fill function in After Effects – which, could rightfully be described as a “Generative AI” effect.
(https://www.adobe.com/uk/sensei/creative-cloud-artificial-intelligence.html)Just one example of many. 😀
March 28, 2023 at 6:57 am
I agree, ChatGPT will only tell you that A.I. can generate visual content, but won’t necessarily be able to do it by itself.
Then there is the question as to whether A.I. can generate anything new, out of nothing?
As there would have needed to be some Machine Learning for the A.I. to know what an object or expression is – take a tree as one example, or a smiling child.There are tools coming through that are allowing you to generate images and video from text (and audio). Although not perfect, it is worth taking note of what is to come, and consider how we as a professionals fits in to this new world:
https://runwayml.com/#generate-videosHere is a newsletter that was released in time for the Academy Awards, all out of some interesting R&D at Storia.ai:
https://oscars.storia.ai/Midjourney is another one in development that looks interesting, check out their showcase:
https://www.midjourney.com/showcase/recent/If you haven’t seen this, even though it is audio only, head over and read this article + watch the video:
Copyright infringement suits might soon be a thing of the past, or it might expand big time.
But how do you sue an A.I., or more importantly, how do you stop an A.I. from using your footage/designs/masters?NFT, non-fungible tokens might suddenly get a whole new extended purpose. 🙂 | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

What is the Best Cryptocurrency Trading Platform?
Update: Please see our article on the best crypto exchanges in Australia for reviews and up-to-date information.
What is the Best Cryptocurrency Trading Platform?
Cryptocurrency trading platforms are essentially websites where you can buy, sell or exchange cryptocurrencies for other digital currencies or traditional currencies. Trading cryptocurrency has become very well-known activity over the last year with your average mum and dad investor jumping on the trading Bitcoin wagon. There are many beginners that are joining the crypto world every day and while some of them could be joining for an investment opportunity, some may be in it for the technology. So, if you are looking to start trading cryptocurrencies, here is some more information about the best trading platforms.
“A cryptocurrency exchange or a digital currency exchange (DCE) is a business that allows customers to trade cryptocurrencies or digital currencies for other assets, such as conventional fiat money or other digital currencies. A cryptocurrency exchange can be a market maker that typically takes the bid-ask spreads as a transaction commission for is service or, as a matching platform, simply charges fees.” – Source: Wikipedia (wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptocurrency_exchange)
Binance offers one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges in the world in terms of trading volume. They support AUD deposits and withdrawals for personal accounts which are Instant and have no fees through PayID/Osko. Binance is trusted by many investors and is used by millions of customers globally.

Coinbase is a worldwide exchange where you can trade with other users by using the company’s Global Digital Asset Exchange (Coinbase Pro) subsidiary. Coinbase Pro currently functions in the UK, US, Canada, Australia, Singapore, and Europe. There are no transfer fees when you move funds from your Coinbase account to your Coinbase Pro account. The main benefits of having Coinbase is that it has a great reputation, high security, affordable fees, is beginner friendly, and the stored currency is covered by Coinbase insurance. On the other hand, the disadvantages of the platform are limited payment methods and limited countries supported.
The trading platform Kraken was founded in 2011 and is the biggest Bitcoin exchange in euro volume and liquidity. Kraken is also a partner of the first cryptocurrency bank. This trading platform will enable you to buy and sell Bitcoins and trade between cryptocurrencies and selected traditional currencies.

The disadvantages of Coinsquare are that it has limited payment methods and limited countries supported.
The trading platform ShapeShift is one of the leading platforms that supports a range of cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Zcash, Monero, and many others. It’s a great option for people who want to make instant direct trades without having to sign up to an account or rely on a platform to hold their funds. However, ShapeShift does not enable users to buy cryptos with debit cards, credit cards or another form of payment system. ShapeShift has a no-fiat policy and will only allow exchange between Bitcoin and other supported cryptocurrencies. The pros of having this trading platform are that it has a great reputation, is suitable for beginners, and has many cryptos available for exchange, quick exchange, and affordable prices. The cons are that it has an average mobile app, no fiat policy, and limited payment options.

WWE Raw Currently Without TV Deal Between October 2024 - January 2025
Where will WWE Raw find a temporary home?
Jan 24, 2024
Could WWE Raw end up without a home in late 2024?
The landscape of WWE changed dramatically this week following the announcement that Raw will air on Netflix from January 2025 in the United States, United Kingdom, and other territories. The WWE-Netflix partnership will also be expanded internationally and the promotion's other programming in NXT, SmackDown, and premium live events will air on Netflix from 2025 in countries like the United Kingdom.
Although the Netflix deal begins in January 2025, the current WWE Raw TV deal in the United States with the USA Network actually expires in October 2024. This leaves Raw without a spot to air for the final months of 2024 and Variety reported that where Raw will air between the end of the USA deal and the start of the Netflix arrangement is still being determined.
There are also questions around the WWE Network library and the streaming service's future as a whole is currently uncertain following the Netflix announcement. The service remains in operation outside of the United States but the main selling point of the WWE Network is the library and premium live events airing on the platform. The PLEs will ultimately leave the service when the Netflix deal comes into effect. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Traveling is a great way to discover the world and learn about new cultures, but it’s also a great opportunity to give back to the community your visiting. It also offers an immersive experience into the local culture. Spend your time wisely and experience the nature of Curaçao while giving back to the community at the same time. Experience Curaçao’s nature through the trails to the unknown, the hills overlooking the blue sea, and the plants to set the scene, are all part of our local treasure here on Curaçao. While we may be a small island, not the most popular destination among nature lovers, however, we have an incredible and unique environment that offers a deep look into our relationship with Earth. Our natural parks and hiking trails will make you look at the ocean from a totally different perspective, literally and figuratively.
It hasn’t been always an easy road to expose our hiking trails and natural areas to tourists. Until recent years most were hidden gems and sometimes difficult to access, but with the work of a local organization called Stichting Uniek Curaçao, a lot of these trails are now open for the public to enjoy. Most of them are still hidden gems though, as tourists have yet to find their way in these rugged landscapes that run along the coast of the island.
Tour operators, like Curaçao Activities, offer wonderful jeep safari tours to some of these natural parks and areas. These same areas are maintained weekly by volunteers of Stichting Uniek Curaçao, as well by Curaçao Activities, if you do want to support this organization and experience Curaçao’s nature at the same time, then book a tour with them directly.
Their jeep tour will take you to extraordinary sights. Their extensive knowledge about the land and the culture of Curaçao will give you a better understanding of what you’re seeing in your surroundings. Some of the paths they take are inaccessible for outsiders, but you get to experience it all firsthand.
Their tour will take you to some of our most beautiful nature areas like Aloe Vera Plantation, St Joris Bay, Director’s Bay, Koraal Tabak, Hato Plains, San Pedro, Bokas, and more. You can also request a tour of other areas and it will be fully customized to your needs. Whether you want to do the tour as a couple, family, or large group, they can and will do their best to accommodate your request. While you’re visiting the sight, take the time to help out by picking up some trash along your path. They will surely appreciate it! | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Performance art is as old as the world itself. The common belief is that theatre, as we know it today in the Western World, evolved from the ritual, and more specifically, the Greek rituals at the Dionysus festivals. Dionysus was the god of wine and fertility. It started with the Dithyramb, a song chanted by a chorus of up to 50 men, in honour of Dionysus.
It is believed that Thespis (6BC), a singer in the dithyramb, was the first person to step forward as an actor. He used masks to portray different characters. Eventually the characters grew from one to three. During Ancient Greek Times only men were allowed to act. They portrayed all the different characters by swapping masks and costumes. The Greek Tragedy was the first play to be performed.
Acting was stylised and spectacular with dance and movement. Specific movements and gestures were used to depict emotions like crying and praying.
Roman and Greek Theatre bloomed until the fall of the Roman Empire around 500- 600AC. Political instability, barbaric invasions and diseases terrorised the world. Theatre declined to the odd wandering performer, doing juggling tricks and mime. Formal theatre didn’t exist anymore.
The Roman Catholic Church gained more and more ground during these times and was opposed to the pagan element in theatre and performance.
It is ironic that the church, at the end, was responsible for the Revival of Theatre.
During Medieval Times people were mostly illiterate. All church services were conducted in Latin and not in the vernacular. In an attempt to make church services more accessible to the common man, the church introduced Mystery and Morality plays into their service. Certain Bible stories were performed like the birth of Jesus or the Crucifixion.
As the stories became less and less biblical, plays were moved outside the church to fixed stages and Pageant Wagons.
In the early Renaissance period, the Commedia Dell’ Arte became a popular art form. It was a very physical form of theatre with a lot of clowning and comic movements from the characters. Like in Eastern Theatre, actors performed the same character for many years.
Shakespeare and the Elizabethan theatre must certainly be the best known theatre from the Renaissance period. Spectacle was of utmost importance as theatre was open to all classes. Shakespeare’s eloquent language was not understood by everybody, so a lot of action and spectacle was necessary to entertain everybody. It was still only men that were allowed to act. The well-known motion picture Shakespeare in Love explores this issue very well.
With the Industrial Revolution and the emphasis on science during the 1900s, the theatre underwent a massive change. Stanislavsky, the Russian director, started to place emphasis on the emotions of the characters. He believed that the actor should experience the emotion of the character on stage and explore the idea of “sense memory”.
Dramas changed from stories about heroes and Noble figures to stories about everyday people and their tragedies. Acting became more realistic and believable. Spectacle made space for real emotion on stage.
World War One and Two brought another turn about in Theatre. Science failed the world. What should have saved the world is now killing people. Brecht, the revolutionary playwright, together with Erwin Piscator, a Marxist, began a movement against realism, called Epic Theatre. Here it was required of the actor to distance himself from the character. Instead of asking ” Who am I’? as in the times of Realism, the actor should ask “What am I?” The person became less important than what he represented in society. A character would be referred to as the soldier, instead of Simon, as in Caucasian Chalk Circle.
After World War Two, the world was in turmoil and people started questioning their existence. Absurd Theatre made its entrance into the world. The best known play of these times must be Beckett’s Waiting for Godot. Two characters waiting at the roadside for Godot, who never shows up. Acting techniques changed. The dialogue was dark and without hope, where characters would talk senseless lines with little emotion just to contrast this with clowning actions.
Modern theatre is believed to have started with Epic Theatre and today we have a wonderful eclectic acting style. Classical plays are done either true to the time period or in a modern version. Many of Shakespeare’s plays have been adopted very successfully into a modern setting making them more accessible to modern man. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Police in Laos have detained eight members of staff at a backpacker hostel following the deaths of six tourists from suspected methanol poisoning last week.
According to local media, those detained include workers and management from the Nana Backpacker Hostel in the town of Vang Vieng, where several of the tourists who later died had stayed.
It is unclear how many other people were taken ill and an investigation into the deaths is continuing.
The owners of the hostel, which is now closed, have previously denied serving illicit alcohol.
It is not the first time that police have detained staff from the hostel. The manager was among a number of people who were questioned by police last week.
He earlier told the Associated Press news agency that 19-year-old Australians Bianca Jones and Holly Bowles were the only people staying at the hostel to have become unwell after drinking free shots before heading out for the night.
The pair died days later – after being admitted to hospital in neighbouring Thailand. Theirs were the first deaths suspected to be caused by methanol – a toxic, flavourless and colourless substance commonly added to bootleg alcohol.
Two Danish women and a 57-year-old American man, who were also staying at the Nana Backpacker Hostel, died at around the same time.
The two young Danes – Anne-Sofie Orkild Coyman, 20, and Freja Vennervald Sorensen, 21 – were found unconscious in their hostel bedroom on 13 November.
That was the same day that the Australian women were taken to hospital after going out to a bar in the city the night before, local media reported.
They were sent to a hospital in the capital Vientiane, but died in the middle of the night. The medical team said the cause of death was sudden heart failure.
Also on 13 November, hostel staff noticed that the American tourist – named as James Louis Hutson – had not come out of his room. —BBC | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Aunt Agnes had always liked the good things in life. She had a rack with wines from all over the world, but her pride and joy were her two dozen bottles of champagne. She would choose one of her champagne bottles for every special occasion celebrated. One of his favorites was a bottle of Moet & Chandon. It was light, bubbly, and subtle sweetness, perfect for an elegant celebration. She also had a bottle of Veuve Clicquot, fuller flavored and bodied, and some rarer vintage champagnes, such as Taittinger and Dom Perignon.
She wanted to ensure she was responsible because her friends would tell her stories of people getting sick from drinking too much. So, she decided to learn more about the possible health effects of champagne. As with most alcoholic beverages, champagne can positively and negatively impact your health, depending on how much you drink.
Several studies on the health effects of champagne have emphasized the role of phenolic acids (including flavonoids). These organic compounds, present in wines, champagne, and foods such as cocoa and olive oil, are thought to promote cardiovascular health.
The mechanisms of these compounds are not yet fully understood, but they would have a role in the maintenance of vascular tissue (arteries, vessels, capillaries), as well as anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
According to a study by the University of Reading, champagne can be beneficial for memory and even against Alzheimer’s disease.
A bottle of champagne contains many minerals: potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc, copper, manganese, and selenium, an antioxidant crucial for the proper functioning of the immune system and thyroid.
Please remember, however, that this is a delightful and alcoholic beverage. The bubbly alcohols also facilitate the absorption of alcohol into the stomach. Therefore, it causes a rapid increase in the blood alcohol level and faster intoxication, so we should drink it in moderation.
Excessive alcohol consumption is responsible for about one in twenty deaths, according to the World Health Organization. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
The Salvation Army Christchurch City Worship and Community Centre in Colombo Street centralises the various City Corp's functions into one purpose built complex. It consists of a worship hall, offices, meeting rooms and a sports hall.
The different spaces have been positioned around a cross that was laid out on the site in plan and forms the major circulation through the development.
A few words from our clients:
" ... Dalman Architects produced a very functional and attractive design. The Building is the flagship for The Salvation Army in the South Island. ...
"One of Dalman’s strengths is their communication. They listened deeply and explained things in such ways that lay people like me could understand. The confidence I received from them meant that I could ask simple questions and they always responded with patience and grace.
"We have ended up with a great design which is both stylish and practical.
"Words that I would use to describe the team at Dalmans would be; approachable, kind, respectful, knowledgeable, friendly, creative and practical."
Alister Irwin (Major), Corps Officer, The Salvation Army
" ... The Dalman team were able to design an iconic building that was very attractive to the eye but also providing functionality of space that was flexible and multi-purpose yet still with a sense of specific detail especially in the worship area. This was part of the brief.
The team worked hard to reduce costs when required without compromising the major design features that made the design iconic and functional. At all times the team were open to ideas and requested changes and were always available when needed having open lines of communication with our whole team at all times. Out meetings with them were well organised and they were always able to meet all deadlines efficiently.
The Dalman Architects team were a pleasure to work with always having a servant heart.
We always felt valued as a client and I would recommended them without hesitation.”

When you think about it, threads are a strange abstraction.
From the programmer’s point of view, threads are great. It’s as if you can create virtual CPUs, on the fly, and the operating system will take care of simulating these virtual CPUs on top of real ones.
But on an implementation level, what is a simple abstraction can lead you, the programmer, into a trap. You don’t have an infinite number of CPUs and applying threaded abstractions in an unbounded manner invites you to overwhelm the real CPU if you try to actually use all these virtual CPUs simultaneously, or overwhelm the address space if they sit idle due to the overhead needed to maintain the illusion.
Careful tuning of one or both of the number of threads in use by the program, or the amount of memory each thread is allocated is needed whenever threads as a concurrency primitive are used in anger. So much for abstraction.
Go’s goroutines sit right in the middle, the same programmer interface as threads, a nice imperative coding model, but also efficient implementation model based on coroutines. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
The cobbler’s children go barefoot: Advisors don’t spend enough time thinking about their own succession and exit planning. Like most people, many are too involved in the day-to-day work. But like family businesses, exit planning for advisors is not just a financial transaction, but is also the chance to leave a legacy.
The wealth management industry is ‘old’ – the average age of financial advisers today is about 55, with 20% of them 65 or older. Why? Because most of them have been servicing the incumbent generation of wealth holders. A similar profile would apply to accountants and lawyers servicing this group.
Research shows a mismatch between the ‘opportunity’ advisors see in the incoming intergenerational wealth transfer and tangible steps taken to address it. The wealth transfer poses a risk both for families and advisors., and both groups need to be aware of it and plan accordingly.
But who advises the advisors on managing this? I have been following this niche issue for a number of years, and will be launching a series of products including educational, knowledge base/community, and specialist consulting to advisors and their firms.
Consider This: Families: have you had an open discussion with your advisors about their ‘parallel’ transition? Rising gen family members: are you comfortable with your parents’ advisors becoming yours? Advisors: are you aware of the risks and opportunities to your business with the generational wealth transition? Have you formally assessed this?

Freddie Kitchens still seems confused
Freddie Kitchens continues to make questionable calls. One example was a 3rd-and-2 in the second quarter where Freddie decided to go with an empty set and throw the ball despite having the best running back in football.
Nick Chubb, who entered the game as the leading rusher in the league was watching as Baker Mayfield threw a pass to tight end Demetrius Harris, who had room to run. Unfortunately, he wasn’t able to pull it in and the Browns were unable to convert.
They did make up for it and ended up scoring on the drive but that was thanks to penalties by Baltimore rather than Cleveland making the plays they needed to.
More from Dawg Pound Daily
- How the Browns could maximize Nick Chubb in 2023
- Can Deshaun Watson get to Patrick Mahomes level for Cleveland Browns?
- 3 Cleveland Browns who should see an expanded role in 2023 and 1 who should not
- Is Marcus Davenport on the Browns radar in 2023?
- 5 Free agents from Super Bowl LVII Cleveland Browns should target
Kitchens was also indecisive in that drive, going back and forth with the decision to kick it, or go for it on 4th-and-1 from the Ravens 23. He was bailed out by the refs bringing in the chains for review, otherwise, they likely would have wasted a timeout due to his waffling.
If these were his only mistakes, they could be forgiven. But they weren’t.
Kitchens started the game out by taking the ball rather than deferring. That was an effort to set the tone but all it did was allow them to get a single first down before punting. Their defense held so it seemed as though it wasn’t a major issue, until the final two minutes.
Up 6-0, the Browns had some questionable play calls as they were throwing the ball and not killing the clock. With 1:50 left to play, Baltimore scored on just two plays — the second being a 39-yard touchdown to Mark Andrews.
Cleveland then got the ball back and Kitchens called three consecutive passing plays, all of which were incomplete. Baltimore had no timeouts and there was just over one minute to play but the Browns killed only 16 seconds.
Unsurprisingly, Baltimore again capitalized as Andrews hauled in a 14-yard touchdown with just nine seconds remaining. The best part for the road team, they were also getting the ball after the break. And that’s what really put it away. Already up 14-6, the Ravens got another touchdown following a long drive to start the third quarter — as yet another decision by Kitchens haunted this team. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
The Design Problem ¶
Use QR codes to quickly scan and verify that a device or some information is secure. In a typical centralized application, we trust the person or company operating the website to verify content. A particular profile or piece of content is mediated by this central server.
However, decentralized applications often rely upon very long strings of characters and/or numbers to identify people or a piece of information, especially for secure communication or secret groups. These very long URLS can be difficult to share in some cases.
The Design Solution ¶
In a decentralized world, QR codes no longer have to link to a centralized shared item. Instead, you can embed information directly in the QR code to share with peers. QR codes can also be exported or printed as an image and sent over a third-party service such as WhatsApp.
Why Choose QR Code Verification? ¶
When you want to securely verify or transfer information between two peers.
Best Practice: How to Implement QR Code Verification ¶
Tell users when the QR code is safe to share publicly or should only be shared with trusted peers. Allow users to load the QR code as an image in case their camera is broken or unusable.
Potential Problems with QR Code Verification ¶
Long pass phrases (such as a mnemonic code) is more complex than showing and scanning a QR code or importing a backup file. However, these long phrases may be useful instead of QR codes in low-bandwidth scenarios where image uploading is costly or time consuming. If used instead of a QR Code, mnemonic phrases should be translated into the user’s native language.
The Take Away ¶
QR Code Verification is a user-friendly approach to transfer and verify information in decentralized systems.

An accountant is a person who practises the art of accountancy. As we have to understand the characteristics of an accountant we need to understand or define accountancy and here is the best definition of accountancy I could find “Accountancy is the art of recording classifying and summarising economic events and transactions, which are of financial character and interpreting results thereof in the form of financial statements”.
Hence accountant is the person who records and write down financial transactions in a specified format which is called the language of accountancy and is also capable of translating results of those recorded transactions into meaningful reports to be used by their users in other words we can also say that accountancy is a language known to accountants and over and above that, accountants also know the art of interpreting or translation to produce the results in a common language which is understood by the stakeholders who intend to use these results / reports of financial transactions.
Above definition of accountancy has two parts first part is called the art of recording classifying and summarising this part is called book keeping and second part is interpreting results thereof both parts of this definition in conjunction becomes accountancy so an accountant is a person who masters the art of bookkeeping and at the same time is proficient in the art of interpreting results of book keeping data.
There is a big misnomer in the financial world that an accountant is the one who maintains the records of financial transactions and for translating the results or for preparation of financial statements like profit and loss statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement there are specified professionals who will come after the end of the financial year and do this honour for the purpose of statutory compliances.
My dear friends first and foremost important person to use the records of financial transactions is a business owner and business managers who need this results in various forms and reports Day in and day out so that they are capable of taking informed decisions while managing and growing their business.
An accountant is the most important person in a business organisation as he is the provider of most important information required by decision makers in other words we can say that accountant is the backbone of accountancy system of the business body.
So as an accountant you can improve your value for the business and for yourself if you achieve proficiency in the art of interpretation or producing valuable reports for the business owners, when you are capable and achieve excellence in preparing Financial Statements (Balance sheet, Profit & Loss statement, Cash Flow statements). And when you add value to the business you get best value for your services provided to the organisation.
So “ASPIRE TO GROW” in your career through attainment of proficiency in the art of accountancy | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Swimming Pool - Basins - Parks and domains - Contemporary gardens
The pool forms a geometric shape in the field in which it lies, and is shaded by a group of pine trees. It is surrounded on three sides by a “beach” in black granite. On the fourth side, the water flows out into the countryside, giving the impression of a flash of light from a mirror. The surface of the dark water contrasts with the palette of light greens in the surrounding countryside, and reflects the beauty of the pines. Between the drawing room of the house and the steps leading to the pool, an ornamental pond, slightly raised, stands in relief against the paving of the terrace.

Known to archaeologists as “faunal” material, animal remains (bone and shell) is one of the most informative artifact types found at Jamestown. For the past two decades, the project has collaborated with animal bone specialists, or zooarchaeologists. Using a modern comparative collection, zooarchaeologists identify the taxa, species, maturity, butchery type, and other characteristics for individual bones and shells. This pursuit of how people procured, processed, and consumed animal meat allows archaeologists to gauge the social, economic, and environmental conditions in and from which such food was acquired and eaten. For example, our best indicator of Jamestown’s “Starving Time” is a noticeable shift from butchered deer, fish, and bird bones (1607-1608) to a faunal assemblage of squirrel, snake, rat, dog, and horse bone (1609-1610). In other words, when an archaeological layer is encountered with these species of butchered animal bone—all atypical to the 17th-century English diet—it typically indicates a period of stress, deprivation, and/or desperation.
While Jamestown’s settlers never celebrated a Thanksgiving of sorts, archaeologically-recovered animal remains suggest that large-scale feasting occurred on more than one occasion within the fort’s walls. To archaeologists, large quantities of the same species found in high bone or shell concentrations suggest an episode of feasting. To date, Jamestown Rediscovery has identified two major feasting events within the fort that follow this pattern. The first coincides with the arrival of Sir Thomas Gates after the Sea Venture shipwreck in Bermuda. Before reaching James Fort in May of 1610, Gates’ crew harvested a large quantity of oysters from Fort Algernon near the mouth of the James River to feed the starving colonists. Today, archaeologists find blankets of discarded oyster shell sitting atop 1609-1610 contexts, representing this oyster feast that ended Jamestown’s “Starving Time.” The second feasting event was uncovered in 2006 in the fill layers of James Fort’s second well. After the well was abandoned in April or May of 1611, faunal evidence in the well’s fill layers suggests that a large-scale pig feast took place. This corresponds with the documented arrival of a resupply ship in 1611, carrying some 200 pigs from England.
As these two feasting events demonstrate, oysters and ham have long been part of the food-based gatherings of Tidewater Virginia. Archaeologically, such feasts speak to both the best of times, and resolution to some of the worst of times. So while not a formal Thanksgiving, gatherings around oysters and ham might equally serve as a distinctively local flavor to giving thanks this time of year. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

AMP for WordPress 1.0 is going to introduce user-friendly theme support settings. The update is expected to roll out in mid-September this year.
The 1.0 alpha release introduced extended AMP theme support including support for core themes, enhanced validation workflow in the compatibility tool, extended Gutenberg support and many other enhancements. The new release is basically shipping out with a more user-oriented approach to the settings. Know more about the 1.0 Alpha Release here.
AMP for WordPress, originally developed by the Automattic team is one of the earliest publishing partners on the project. The AMP (Accelerated Mobile Pages) project aims at improving the performance on the mobile devices and currently boasts usage on 25 million websites including the publishing, advertising, e-commerce and business types.
XWP in partnership with Google started to lead the development of the plugin last year beginning with the release of version 0.6. Alberto Medina, Developer Advocate at Google said, “Around May last year, my team at Google started a long-term effort with a bigger scope than just AMP, which included significantly investing engineering resources on the development of the plugin.” He further clarified that they have started investing development resources and then teamed up with XWP in order to expand the engineering scope. During this phase of the project, Google and XWP have driven all the execution of the project and the development efforts.
Weston Ruter, the tech lead at XWP said that his team went through six months of the plugin’s support topics on WordPress.org and categorized them to figure out what issues users were struggling with the most. They used that information to guide the focus for their first release and have been keeping a pulse on the support forum ever since.
Ruter also said that his team is considering implementing a wizard-type experience to minimize the number of tweaks users need to make. They are discussing automating the compatibility check of various template prior to enabling theme support so users can get a high-level view of the areas of the site that would be best-suited for AMP.
The very first few versions of AMP for WordPress were more developer-centric, requiring edits to themes and child themes to configure template support. It was very complicated for heavily customized installations as it required site owners to invest considerable effort into optimizing AMP pages and fine-tuning them for their needs.
Users can now enable Native AMP or Paired mode on the AMP settings screen and the beta release adds granular controls for selecting supported templates.
The 1.0 release will allow users to have a native AMP site that excludes certain templates, such as a shopping cart or a category archive, from being served as AMP.
Below are a few notable updates in the alpha and beta releases:
- Enhanced UI for handling AMP validation errors
- Expanded Gutenberg support to surface AMP validation errors at a block level
- Addition of AMP-specific functionality to core blocks
- Redirection to non-AMP URL when unaccepted validation errors present
- Beta brings back WP Admin Bar AMP menu with AMP error highlighting
The AMP for WordPress plugin is becoming more of a plug-and-play solution as development progresses. So, if you haven’t already, we recommend you try out the plugin today and give your feedback.
Note that AMP for WordPress v1.0-beta2 is not yet ready for production sites.

More than five centuries after saint-reformer Srimanta Sankaradeva created Assamese Bhaona, a dramatic form of entertainment to convey spiritualism in the Vaishnav mold, the Congress in Assam has tweaked it for a political statement against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act and National Register of Citizens.
Assamese Bhaona Analysis
- The political Bhaonauses music and the Brajavali language that Sankaradeva developed, and his disciples popularised from the Vaishnav monasteries.
- The CAA, which seeks to protect non-Muslims who entered India from three neighboring countries till December 31, 2014, is in conflict with the Assam Accord.
- The Accord, signed in 1985 by the Rajiv Gandhi government, prescribes the detection and deportation of all immigrants, irrespective of faith, who entered Assam after midnight of March 24, 1971.
Bhaona Of Assam
- Entertainment played a major role in the neo-Vaishnavite movement that Sankardeva started in Assam.
- He wrote his prose in Sanskrit but used Assamese and Brajavali to develop Borgeet, a new form of spiritual music, and Bhaona, a mythology-based theatrical performance, and monastic dances that evolved into the classical Sattriya.
- Linguistic researchers say Sankardeva needed to connect with his Assamese masses, who did not expect the divine characters of his plays to speak in the common man’s language. So he created the Brajavali, a literary language limited to theatrical usage.
- A Bhaona, involving dialogues, songs, and dances by performers in costumes and ornaments, usually involves 40-50 people, including those playing heavy drums and cymbals. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

The paper which James White initially started, "The Present Truth", was combined with another periodical called the "Advent Review" in 1850 to become the "Second Advent Review and Sabbath Herald", still published as the "Advent Review" today. This periodical became the main source of communication for the Sabbatarian Adventist movement regarding points of doctrine and organization. It also became a venue for James and Ellen White to quickly and efficiently share their views to like-minded believers. James White served as editor of the periodical until 1851 when he invited Uriah Smith to become editor. He played a senior role in the management of church publications as president of the Review and Herald Publishing Association. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
