In this category, we discuss traveling tips, green living, and ways to exit the matrix out of your current ‘life’ – including standard lifestyle stuff! What is ‘the matrix’? If you work 9-5 job, go to school, typically these types of things that cause you to become so busy that you lose track of what is really happening in the world. Some of you might not even care and rely on the ‘mainstream media’ to keep you updated. Not good. Others want to know more, and in order to find out more, you have to set aside time to find out more. You also have to ensure you do not trust the mainstream text and information that you are fed and seek elsewhere. In doing this, you also need to ensure that you have specific plans to exit the matrix with caution as it can become very difficult after being inside of it for so long. We discuss some helpful hints in this category.

Hey there! I am the marketing supervisor at The Eliquid Boutique, an internet vape company in the UK. I discovered several inquiries about our worldwide usa vape shop database 7 000 vape shop contact details shop database and vape business email directory. In essence, the Global Vape Shop Database comprises of contact information for almost all vape stores globally, including UK, U.S.A., Canada, Europe, Russia and CIS, Middle East and Australia. It appears in an Excel spread sheet and consists of the vape shop name, email, internet site, telephone number, address, social networks web links and a lot more. Meanwhile, the Vape Company E-Mail List is pretty much a list with emails of every single business around the world. The list possesses about 40,000+ e-mails of e-liquid labels, on-line and brick-and-mortar vape companies, vape wholesalers and distros, CBD sites, vape show organisers and even more. These particular vape leads are excellent for e-newsletter marketing as this is the core purpose of the database. The vape company leads are all GDPR certified and you would get free lifetime updates supplied directly to your inbox. We upgrade the vape store database and vape company e mail list at least two times a calendar month. We do a three level verification on all of the emails including for syntax, discontinued domains and closed e-mail inboxes. If you have some queries, you can speak to me via our Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/theeliquidboutique. The global vape shop database and vape company emails have really helped about five hundred e-liquid brands and vape wholesalers to advertise their products to all vape stores all around the world and is literally all you need to take your vape label to a brand new level. I really hope that this answers most of your concerns guys! We will be releasing an additional update now!

Continuing the news from SIGGRAPH, Chaos Group announced V-Ray for UE4.
At the first ever UE4 user group meeting at SIGGRAPH, Chris Murray At Epic Games and Vladimir 'Vlado' Koylazov, cofounder and VP of Engineering of Chaos Group introduced a pipeline for both importing Detailed CAD data into Unreal, (without going through Maya or 3Ds Max etc) and then rendering using V-Ray directly in UE4.
Apparently, Chaos decided that they would start with one primary Game Engine, so they informally consulted their users and the clear preference was for UE4 support. While Chaos may at some point support both Unreal and Unity, for now it is only supporting EPIC's UE4. The port was done with one developer working "with one 3D guy", according to Vlado when he spoke to fxguide in LA. One of the team had done the V-Ray for Nuke port, so they were very familiar with this style of work. "In a couple of months we had a version of V-Ray working inside the Unreal Engine and now we are at a point we can show something to our customers". Vlado commented that the Epic team were very supportive once they started working with them, and extremely keen to see V-Ray for UE4 working.
.vrscene files from 3ds Max, Maya, Modo, Rhino or SketchUp.
This allows users to render directly for when exact lighting is needed. There are a range of applications from VFX to Architecture and Product design can require the sort of precise lighting and reflections that a true ray tracer can provide.
You can also export content from the real-time UE4 engine for use in other DCC using the .vrscene files, this connects with VRayScene nodes in other programs such as Maya and 3ds Max.
Complex GI in UE4 requires texture baking, so looking forward, Vlado comments that "V-Ray has a very good texture baking engine so being able to use that inside UE4, in the future, to bake light maps would be useful especially now we have both a CPU and GPU renderers which are very fast".
VRay can provide immediate views on a GI setup.The VRay implementation actually started separately from the UE4 team, built on top of the V-Ray App SDK.
There is also support for custom shaders for the VRayMtl materials. "We try and preserve all the V-Ray materials as much as possible inside Unreal editor, with the same controls as people are used to", commented Vlado. "Obviously once you are in UE4 data can come from other places. You can render out or you can also export a scene file out and use it in another V-Ray application.. so it is a good round trip workflow, which different users want to use different parts of". At SIGGRAPH a range of customers were interested, including VR based clients. Getting a scene into VR is key for a range of Chaos client. "More than half our artist customers are doing VR on a daily basis, it might just be 360 video, it might be walk throughs,... but it something that comes up all the time now, so anything that simplifies that workflow is hugely beneficial".
The UE4 option is working and is in the hands of a few key customers, "if everything goes according to plan we will have something public in late Fall, maybe sometime in November, but it is hard to say, after all it is development". No word how this will be sold or distributed, there is no decision on if it will be sold separately or as part of a wider release.
In other news, V-Ray now supports Cryptomatte from Psyops. While Vlado initially doubted its usefulness in comparison to a Deep Pipeline he came to see that some clients would end up with 50 or more special render passes or Multi-mattes. "Working that way just slows down the render and uses memory, Cryptomatte solves this problem in a very elegant way, because it just requires a few render elements,.. with multi-mattes you have to set them up in advance with Cryptomatte you can just solve it in post, after the fact. Once I realised that I thought it was a no brainer to implement it", explained Vlado.
Chaos has also had great success with this hybrid GPU and CPU rendering, "It seems to work really well, even people who are focused on GPUs then to have those cards in machines with very good CPUs - so why not use them?" he jokingly remarks.
Rumour has it that Chaos will soon be tightening up the V-Ray SDk, as it has been out for some time, modernising it and simplifying it should ultimately make such V-Ray implementations in UE4 faster and even better.

Australian Mike Schram has just become the youngest person ever to circumnavigate the world on a motorcycle. After setting out on the journey at 16 years of age in 2012 along with his parents, Aad and Jeannette, Mike only last week crossed the finish line at the Great Ocean Road in Victoria, Australia after three and a half years of travel.
HE’S DONE IT! Against the odds 19 year old Mike Schram has set a new World Record as the youngest person to have circumnavigated the world on a motorcycle, when he arrived on March 6th 2016 at the Great Ocean Road in Victoria, Australia. The journey took 3,5 years, during which he rode more than 120,000 km, covered more lines of longitude and more lines of latitude than the previous record and improved it by over 4 years.
Congratulations to not only Mike, but his parents too. An amazing achievement at his age and amazing memories for a family to have together.

I have read Laura Ingalls Wilder’s wonderful Little House book series innumerable times. I love these books, and my two daughters love them, too. We have the first three books on audio, and my five-year-old daughter has listened to it so many times she can recite full paragraphs from memory.
I’m not even sure what makes the books so intriguing. The books defy the traditional plot arc of a chapter book. Much of the narrative are very detailed descriptions about food. If the mark of a good writer is to make stewed pumpkin sound like something off the menu of a Michelin-starred restaurant, then no wonder five of Laura’s books were Newbery Honor books.
I think one reason why millions of people have loved the books is that we get to peek into the life of a girl who was raised without smart phones, potty training dolls, or Rainbow Looms. This is a girl who owned a couple of dresses and had a doll made out of a corncob. She was thrilled to receive an orange in her Christmas stocking, and she didn’t wear shoes in the summer.
It’s no surprise there are endless internet links about Laura and her life. The following is a tiny compilation of websites to explore if your family is like mine and would love to learn how to make maple candy, construct a corn cob doll, or visit the original De Smet homestead that Laura lived at with her family for five years.
Are you a Little House fan? Which of the following have you done?
VISIT: There are festivals and museums in pretty much every town Laura and Almanzo lived in. Because of Charles Ingalls’s wanderin’ soul, the family crossed many state borders and built their homes (literally) from the ground up.
Laura Ingalls Wilder Days, an annual family-friendly event, this year on September 12th and 13th, 2015, featuring a fiddle contest, a race, and a “Laura” contest.
Prairie Days, an annual celebration of Laura and her life. This year on June 13, 2015.
FOOD: Feel like recreating the culinary delights of the prairie? Check out links below.
Little House on the Prairie Recipes: Learn how to make maple and horehound candy and johnny cakes.
The Little House Cookbook: Frontier Foods from Laura Ingalls Wilder’s Classic Stories: More than 100 recipes along with history (be prepared to buy lard, people).
CRAFTS & CLOTHES: Prairie families were so self-sufficient. Churn your own butter from the milk you got from a real, live cow? Cut blocks of ice from the lake in the middle of winter and pack it with sawdust to store in the barn? Butcher a pig and roast the tail, then blow up the bladder to make a balloon? The following links won’t show you how to do any of that, but I promise they’ll be fun anyways.
My Book of Little House Paper Dolls: The Big Woods Collection: I purchased this for my young children when we needed to take a thirteen-hour plane ride, and this occupied them for a good two hours of it.
Bonnet Tutorial: Because really all you need is a bonnet and you’re recognizable as a prairie child.
The King’s Daughters sewing patterns: If you have a sewing machine and aren’t afraid to use it, check out these dress patterns.
Ashley’s Attic on Etsy: For those who would rather click and buy rather than thread a needle, check out these adorable prairie clothes from Ashley’s Attic.
Editor’s Note: Mansfield, Missouri was incorrectly listed as Mansfield, Montana, and has been corrected.

RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CA (April 2, 2019) – A woman suffered critical injuries after a hit-and-run crash in Rancho Cucamonga on Wednesday, March 27.
According to the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department, police received reports at about 10:24 p.m. Deputies from the Rancho Cucamonga Police Department rushed to a collision that occurred at Foothill Boulevard and Hellman Avenue.
Deputies received advisories from witnesses that the suspect, later identified as 36-year-old Miguel Mendoza, had been seen. Witnesses saw him traveling eastbound on Foothill from Upland, entering Rancho Cucamonga. In addition, witnesses noticed Mendoza’s vehicle weaving in and out of traffic and running red lights repeatedly.
As Mendoza’s vehicle drew closer to Hellman Avenue, it ran the red light at the intersection. After that, it collided into the victim’s vehicle turning left on a green arrow onto southbound Hellman Avenue. When the vehicles came to stop, Mendoza went out of his car and fled. He failed to check on the woman’s condition, the Sheriff’s Department stated.
The Sheriff’s Department described the victim, a 28-year-old woman from Pomona, in critical but stable condition.
Authorities positively identified Mendoza as the driver of the vehicle. However, they were not able to immediately locate him after the crash.
Finally on March 28, deputies at Rancho Cucamonga Traffic Division and Multi-Enforcement Team acquired the whereabouts of Mendoza. The deputies at his residence in the city of Hawthorne arrested him.
Mendoza sustained injuries consistent with being in a traffic accident. They brought him to a local hospital for a pre-booking medical check, according to Sheriff’s Department. Officers booked Mendoza at West Valley Detention Center and set his bail at $50,000.
If you ever get involved in a traffic accident, do not attempt to flee the scene. Face the consequences of your actions and wait for the arrival of the police. By following driving laws and being careful when behind the wheel, you can keep yourself and others around you safe.

Cockburn's Fine Ruby port is a blend of young wines from various years, aged for three to five years and bottled after filtration. It retains the red color and fruit flavor of youth, and is ready to drink when bottled, offering a rich, fruity, sweet taste.
International Wine CellarLaid-back, rather complex aromas of black raspberry, maple syrup and golden raisins seem midway between ruby and tawny. Smooth, nicely concentrated and rich; the maple syrup note repeats in the mouth but is complemented by fresh berry flavors. Finishes slightly fiery but long, with a suggestion of raisin.
Wine SpectatorWell-balanced and offering some of the complexity associated with mature vi ntage port, spicy and cherry-like with a hint of vanilla, with velvety tann ins and firm structure.

Rail technology leader Bombardier Transportation and its key industry partners were recognised at this year’s Railway Industry Innovation Awards organised by Modern Railways magazine and held in London on June 26, 2015.
At the event, Bombardier partner Network Rail won the Cross-Industry Partnership award for the Independently Powered Electric Multiple Unit (IPEMU) project. Part of a cross-industry research programme supporting the Rail Technical Strategy, Network Rail developed this innovative battery locomotive in close partnership with Bombardier as well as with industry service operator Abellio Greater Anglia, and the Rail Executive research group RSSB through the Future Railway programme.
The judges recognized the IPEMU project as an example of a true cross industry partnership, one which has successfully demonstrated the battery-driven train propulsion concept to the UK railways. The IPEMU successfully entered trial passenger service operation on the Manningtree to Harwich Town branch line in January 2015.

Volunteers from across the country are rebuilding oyster reefs along the Gulf of Mexico's delicate shoreline, hoping to revive oyster beds under assault for decades from overharvesting, coastal development, pollution, and most recently the BP oil spill.
"Certainly the oil spill was a wake-up call and a serious impact that we have to recover from, but frankly, there's been 100 years or more of oyster reefs and salt marsh and sea grass loss," he said. "That's the larger thing that we're trying to recover from and set a new course."

Incidentally, I notice that the iconic London tube map has made it into the final three for the Design Museum's Great British Design Quest, as supported by the BBC Culture Show. Of the remaining entries, I think it is going to get my vote – partly because it is so enduring.

I want to know if I’m actually under the Thames at any point when in Embankment (sorry, IBMbankment) station.
I suspect that you could get access to such a map if you went to work for London Underground. You don’t think they are really going to publish that stuff, do you? Especially with the current climate.
Andy, please make it so. – who do you think you are, Jean-Luc Picard?

After being given five Godparents by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Princess Charlotte has expressed her dismay at all the God bothering she’ll now be exposed to.
A spokesperson for the infant princess said that having multiple parents in charge of educating her in the ways of a two-thousand year old book is about as useful as a Deputy Prime Minister.
Meanwhile several thousand Gods have complained that they will be dramatically underrepresented in the young princesses life.

October 4, 2018 – Her name is Carley Gaskin and she hails from Chicago. She is the North American Winner of the United States Bartenders’ Guild (USBG) 12th Annual “Most Imaginative Bartender” Competition presented by Bombay Sapphire Gin. The story of how she won this title and what she and other contestants went through is worth considering.
Her recipe, Geb’s Reviver (recipe below) “…demonstrated an extraordinary level of artistry in this year’s competition…” said Tom Spaven, Bombay Sapphire’s North American Brand Director. She created a competition drink menu featuring all no-waste and sustainable ingredients. This was her personal theme and it is one of growing interest and importance in the bar world.
Winning a competition like this is not for the faint-hearted. Just look at the challenges she and others had to get through. It started with USBG’s selection committee for the Most Imaginative Bartender Competition traveling to 30 North American cities to identify the top 16 finalists – 14 from the U.S. and two from Canada – from the hundreds of candidates that participated.
The finalists gathered at Tales of the Cocktail, an annual trade event in New Orleans, for the first test called The On-Air Challenge. This tested their presentation skills in front of a live camera and audience.
Next, the lucky contestants went to England to the Laverstoke Mill Distillery in Hampshire where Bombay Sapphire gin is made. Here they faced the Laverstoke Botanical Challenge. Each finalist was assigned one of the 10 vapor-infused natural botanicals that are in the Bombay gin recipe. Finalists were tasked with creating an avant-garde recipe that celebrated the botanical’s country of origin and its unique flavor. Wow. That sounds tricky.
The second challenge had each of the 16 finalists present an original Bombay Sapphire cocktail, which illustrated the fusion between art and mixology. The judges then narrowed the competition down to the top six contestants who advanced to the final stage.
This was the Grand Finale. The top six bartenders were tasked with designing a bespoke cocktail menu at a top London bar, having only one day to source local ingredients in order to batch and prepare three different gin-forward recipes. Imagine the stress of doing this in a foreign country!
The rewards of winning this competition are multiple. Besides the title, trophy and cash award, Carley Gaskin will also become GQ Magazine’s official “Bartender in Residence. Here she will collaborate on a series of cocktail videos, act as the in-house cocktail expert throughout the year, and partner with a chef from Bon Appetit’s “Hot Ten” list of America’s Best New Restaurants in 2018 to create specialty cocktail pairings.
Below is the recipe for her winning cocktail, “Geb’s Reviver”.
Method: Combine all ingredients and shake. Top with pineapple, carrot, Bombay Sapphire foam. Garnish with dehydrated rhubarb and carrot powder.

The purpose of the Policy is to set out the requirements for the company in respect of the potential conflicts of interest.
The Policy is designed to give guidance on expected behaviors in relation to conflicts and may need to be read in conjunction with other documents, such as the Personal Account Dealing Policy, as indicated from time to time.
It applies to all staff employed or seconded to JMI Brokers LTD Limited (JMI). It also applies to all management and those working on long term contracting arrangements. It may also apply to JMI Brokers personnel where a conflict arises involving the Group.
Other Documents Which Need to be Considered.
The company respects its employees' privacy and therefore does not normally take an interest in personal conduct outside of work. However, when there is a potential conflict between and employee's personal conduct has the potential of interfering with the employee's loyalty and objectivity towards the group, a 'conflict of interest' may exist that must be satisfactorily resolved. You need to consider if the appearance of a conflict of interest can be harmful to you or the group.
We would remind you that you should always treat our counterparties, brokers and other third parties fairly, professionally and with integrity.
It is a mitigating factor through identification and management of the potential conflicts both senior management and individual employees. It is therefore essential that you read and consider the material presented to you and if you are in any doubt seek advice from you line manager or compliance.
You should also ensure you document and keep records of any training you receive whether internal or external.
In the widest sense, a conflict of interest occurs where one person (A) owes a duty to another party such as a counterparty or employer (B) and that duty is compromised by either A's own interests or by a duty owes a third party. Such duties may arise, for example, where A acts as an agent for B, where A owes fiduciary obligations to B or as a result of a regulator imposing such duties.
'Internal conflicts' where the interests of one internal entity conflicts with another internal entity.
You should inform the appropriate line manager if you are aware of that you may be involved in an actual conflict of interest or if you become aware that there is a potential conflict of interest.
For personal conflicts that have been declared, the line manger in the first instance should investigate the conflict. He should also formally record that conflict and record the measures (if any) taken in managing the conflict. Equally, if there are no measures taken the reason for this should be noted.
Outside business interests – such as an economic interest in a supplier to the company or a second job or serving as a director or consultant.
Personal political interests – whilst we recognize an employees right to engage in the political process you must be clear that you do not represent the company and you must not use company property to engage in that process.
Previous employment - you must not bring proprietary information or documentation from previous employers as this may involve the company in a breach of copyright or other risk of litigation.
You should consider the company's trading guidelines and if you suspect there is any conflict or have any concerns in relation to new or existing arrangements you should raise it with your line manager.
You are expected to raise any queries or concerns about any other potential conflicts of interest with your line-manager, who will if appropriate escalate the matter to Compliance and/or a director.
Aggregation of client orders etc.
Treatment of different categories of client- this may affect the level of treatment they need.
Conflicts between managing investments and dealing information, working client orders, managing client orders.
The conflicts should not be considered in isolation from the business units.
For example it is possible that some trading situations where a conflict arises may also pose the risk of market abuse e.g. commercial confidential information may also be insider information under the market abuse regime.
The company is involved in providing execution services to the Group and clients. In addition we provide, via our Group Company, investment research, personal recommendations and investment management services.
financial instruments or the issuers of financial instruments, including any opinion as to the present or further value or price of such instruments, intended for distribution channels and it is labelled or described as investment research or in similar terms, or is otherwise presented as an objective or independent explanation of the matters contained in the recommendation.
Under MiFID there is also the concept of a personal recommendation where the advice on investments is represented as suitable for the person to whom it is made or is based on a consideration of the circumstances of that person (individual or corporate). You should further note that the highest client classification for advice is Professional (i.e. you cannot classify a client as an Eligible Market Counterparty).
It is therefore essential that the company considers and manages the conflicts between research, personal recommendation and investment management.
In order to manage these conflicts it has been deemed necessary to erect a 'Chinese Wall' in the form of both physical and electronic barriers to information. This will aid in ensuring information flows are controlled coming into the company, within the company and leaving the company.
Company directors have a common law duty to act in the best interests of those companies where a conflict arises the director should declare this and take any action deemed necessary in order to manage the conflict.
In summary each of us needs to be aware of the potential conflicts and consider new events in the light of possible new, yet to be identified conflicts.
You should always ask your line manager if you feel there may be a conflict as this will enable the management to give you the support necessary to ensure the conflict, if it is identified as such, is successfully managed.
Remember the company is part of a larger group and it is essential that the reputation of the company, which has been built-up over many years, is protected today and in the future.

It is the beginning of fall term and my students have been helping me to process multiple collections in numerous formats. There is more to process in the stacks, but this gives you an idea of the variety we are processing.
These are a few boxes which are being sampled by a student who will be on an internship here this term processing one of the more difficult and complex of MI Supreme Court Justice Elizabeth Weaver's papers. There are several hundred cubic feet of her collection in the stacks.
This is my table of about 10 different collections that I'm processing including archaic media videotapes, scrapbooks, papers, pins, and digital materials.
This is an addition to the CMU. Park Library collections, of the Dean's office materials. Another student is working on this prior to beginning his internship. He'll be processing a larger mixed format collection of early Clare History.
The top two images also show the blue film containers two students are rehousing Channel 9 & 10 film into following, rewinding, identifying, splicing, and reorganizing of the film. More on that later. Yes, we have a lot happening in my unit.

Colin Kaepernick started this whole thing–based on his own comments on social media–as a solidarity gesture with folks like BLM and the whole “hands up, don’t shoot” crowd.
And this is why the latest rhetorical device of gentile mainstream “conservatives” pointing out “narrative collapse” is failing. It appeals to an objective standard of truth that can be known irrespective of race, ethnicity, etc. But the other side does not care about any of that. Therefore, there is no authoritative source of truth that can be appealed to show, definitively that there is no epidemic of “racist” white cops gunning down innocent black kids in the street while they surrender. “Hands up don’t shoot!” is impervious to reason and facts.
The last sentence is key. The reason that the narrative in question is immune to reason and facts is because it isn’t based on reason and facts. The motive force behind this burgeoning movement is not reason or logic, but rather emotions and feelings. Anger, fear, envy, etc.; those emotions drive the movement.
Unfortunately, this is something that so called “mainstream conservatives” fail to understand. Now, don’t get me wrong, conservatives and liberals alike are all caught in the gravity well of the black hole that is liberalism. However, from my experience (and those of others), conservatives tend to be more fact oriented. However, most conservatives (being clueless in ways beyond count) don’t grasp this. Perhaps they do intellectually, when they stop to consider it. But most of the time they don’t get it.
This is why the idea of a “narrative collapse” will not work. The “narrative” isn’t collapsing because while facts might be changing, the emotions and feelings are not. As long as people feel the way they do, facts won’t matter. If forced to confront them, people will simply call them lies and the product of deception. Because, after all, it isn’t facts which are real- it is emotions and feelings.
Iwig (alternatively, Iwi, Iwigius, or Ywi of Lindisfarne) was a saint venerated in Wiltshire in the Middle Ages. He was reputedly a Northumbrian monk, said to have died and to have been buried in Brittany. Historian David Dumville called him “the other principal saint of Wilton”, in reference to Saint Eadgyth. He was supposedly a follower (alumnus) of Saint Cuthbert.
He is listed in two 11th-century litanies. A narrative of this century claimed that his relics had been brought to Wilton Abbey by Breton monks in the 10th-century, and left for safe-keeping at the altar of Saint Eadgyth. The narrative claims that the relics subsequently became immovable [through the wish of the saint to reside there], though historian John Blair suspected that this story may have been invented to justify Wilton’s theft of the relics.
His feast day was celebrated on 8 October. The Priory of Ivychurch in Wiltshire is thought to have been named after him.
Saint Francis Xavier, S.J. (born Francisco de Jasso y Azpilicueta, 7 April 1506 – 3 December 1552), was a Navarrese Basque Roman Catholic missionary, born in Javier (Xavier in Navarro-Aragonese or Xabier in Basque), Kingdom of Navarre (present day Spain), and a co-founder of the Society of Jesus. He was a companion of Saint Ignatius of Loyola and one of the first seven Jesuits who took vows of poverty and chastity at Montmartre, Paris in 1534. He led an extensive mission into Asia, mainly in the Portuguese Empire of the time and was influential in evangelization work, most notably in India. The Goa Inquisition was proposed by St. Francis Xavier. He also was the first Christian missionary to venture into Japan, Borneo, the Maluku Islands, and other areas. In those areas, struggling to learn the local languages and in the face of opposition, he had less success than he had enjoyed in India. Xavier was about to extend his missionary preaching to China but died in Shangchuan Island shortly before he could do so.
He was beatified by Pope Paul V on 25 October 1619 and canonized by Pope Gregory XV on 12 March 1622. In 1624 he was made co-patron of Navarre alongside Santiago. Known as the “Apostle of the Indies,” and the “Apostle of Japan”, he is considered to be one of the greatest missionaries since Saint Paul. In 1927, Pope Pius XI published the decree “Apostolicorum in Missionibus” naming Saint Francis Xavier, along with Saint Thérèse of Lisieux, co-patron of all foreign missions. He is now co-patron saint of Navarre with San Fermin. The Day of Navarre (Día de Navarra) in Spain marks the anniversary of Saint Francis Xavier’s death, on 3 December 1552.
More can be found out about his life at his wiki, located here.
I have returned from my unofficial absence/sabbatical. I originally planned on only being gone for a week or two, but eventually stretched it to over a month. Partially because life kept getting in the way, and partially because I have felt for some time that this blog has become un-anchored.
My suspicion is that much of it is internal- I am trying to orient myself right now because I don’t feel that I am doing what I should. Deep Strength has a recent post where he talks about how you should “Do you job.” I found it timely, because I am less sure than I have been in a long time about what, exactly, my job is. Not my secular job- that is fine. Rather, it is my vocation- my calling to serve the Lord.
So much of my blogging energy will be directed towards examining that, in addition to my usual fare. In the meantime, I hope to get some regular posts up starting in the next few days.

The O’s made it nine games unbeaten and moved joint-top of the National League thanks to goals from Charlie Lee, Macauley Bonne and substitute Matt Harrold sealing the three points at the Breyer Group Stadium.
And the boss says it was a tough game but his side dealt with the physicality and came out on top.
“It was a tough game against a very good team again, but we’re finding different ways to win games, and I thought we got out the traps as quick as we had this season,” the 48-year-old said.
The former Gillingham boss praised his goalkeeper Dean Brill, who picked up man of the match, for pulling off vital saves early on in the match.
“He made two excellent saves off the back of us starting really brightly, lots of good possession and good movement, things that we’ve spoke about and worked on.
Moors boss Tim Flowers was disappointed in the timing on the opening goal from the O’s and Edinburgh explained the situation on the Charlie Lee goal in the fifth minute of stoppage time.
“No, I think there was a miscommunication between the three officials and the fourth official.
“His communication set had broken so the linesman ensured us there was five minutes and he thought there were three.
The boss praised the way Lee headed home a Jobi McAnuff header from a corner on the stroke of half-time.
Edinburgh was also pleased with how his side stood up to the physicality of the visitors in the match but at times felt they become too involved.
“I believe so, we spoke about it at half-time, we knew we had to stand up to the physicality and that’s no criticism of Solihull.
“That’s what we needed to do and we did that, but I felt we were getting too involved in that, and not showing enough of what we were about.

There has been a slight decrease in the number of JEE Main Applicants for the year 2018. In the year 2017, 12 Lakh candidates had registered for the prestigious exam as compared to this year where only 11.5 lakh candidates have turned up to apply for JEE Main 2018. There has also been a rise from 1.8 Lakh to 2.25 lakh in the number of candidates who have opted for the computer-based mode of the exam. Comparatively, there has been a dip in the number of aspirants who have chosen to take the offline mode of exam where last year’s 10.2 lakh candidates have dropped down to 9.2 lakh only.
According to Rajbir Singh, the CBSE executive Director who is in charge of JEE Main, there has been a gradual increase in the number of students who are opting for computer based test.
JEE Main 2018 dates have already been announced by CBSE. The offline exam will be conducted on 8th April 2018 whereas the online exam will be held on 15th and 16th April 2018. The exam will also be of utmost importance to those students who are planning to take the JEE Advanced 2018 which will be conducted on 20th May, as qualifying JEE Main will be one of the eligibility criteria for admission to 23 IITs. JEE Advanced for this will be conducted in online mode only.
This year, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Odisha, Nagaland and few other institutes have joined in JEE Main system. These states will have their respective state admission criteria that will have to be fulfilled by the candidate. Applicants must fill the application online to take the exam.
JEE Main is regarded as one of the challenging examination along with JEE Advanced. Candidates seeking admission to IIITs, NITs and IITs should have to score at least 75% marks in class 12 or be in the top 20 percentile holders of their class 12.

Gov. Jerry Brown has appointed Jay Famiglietti, UC Irvine professor of Earth system science and civil & environmental engineering, to the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board. “I am honored by the appointment” said Famiglietti, who heads the UC Center for Hydrologic Modeling. “I am looking forward to working with the board and with the public to help improve the health of our region’s waters.” Famiglietti’s research has made him a frequent adviser to regional, state and national policymakers regarding key water issues. The Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board works to ensure a sustainable water future for the region covering much of southern California. Its current focus is watershed management and strengthening water quality standards.

When I posted the “David McSweeney will take away Social Security and Medicar”e post card from the Illinois Democratic Party on Dee Beaubien’s behalf, I didn’t know that two had hit the mailboxes last week.
I can’t be sure of the order, just that they both came the third week of October.
Including the two this week, I could a total of four negative Social Security mailings.
Here’s the other one. This makes four on the subject matter irrelevant to a state legislative race.
Talk about money to burn.
Same ol’, same ol’ on the back of the Mike Madigan Social Security hit piece aimed at David McSweeney. This is the address side.
Guide for people considering moving out of Illinois.
Maybe he’s asking people to help him move out of Illinois.
That, incidentally, was the conversation I had with a man after church today.
He has found a couple of towns where four-bedroom homes run under $100,000.
And, where property taxes are $300-400 a year.
“Please Help,” says the old man’s sign, sent by Democratic Party Chairman Mike Madigan on behalf of Dee Beaubien’s campaign to defeat Republican Dave McSweeney.
Cal- still waiting for you to actually call out McSweeney for his blatant lies.
You call out Dee for “misleading” even though she isn’t lying, yet you say nothing about McSweeneys lies.
Dave: Please articulate what what the Illinois legislature can regulate Social Security and what Dee will do to fix it.
John – I am not sure how that is a relevant question, nor does it relate to my comment.
I agree that SS and Medicare are not State issues. I also agree that McSweeney and his allies want to see those programs dismantled. I also would strongly argue that one’s position on what to do with SS and Medicare tells us a lot about a candidate.
BTW – McSweeney DID campaign on slashing both SS and Medicare when he ran for Congress.
So your point is that Dee’s mailing is only technically misleading, not actually misleading?
No- my point is that Dee’s mailing is correct.
McSweeney and his allies DO want to destroy social security and Medicare.
So what is Dee proposing?
More unsustainable business as usual?

What an exciting and unusual job it is to be a professional pyrotechnician. From actually making fireworks, choreographic and fusing together different elements, and then touching down the match (or pushing the button as the case may be), the firework professional is involved in every aspect of a big pyrotechnic show. If you are looking into a career in professional fireworks, you may work for a pyrotechnic event company, a major corporation that puts on their own extravaganzas (such as Disney World) or even get business on your own. What a great feeling to know that when the crowd is oohing and ahhing in appreciation of the huge bursts of fireworks in the sky, that you and the other professional fireworks guys are responsible.
Pyrotechnics in itself is considered an art form; literally from Greek “the art of fire” and for thousands of years masters of the art have been creating masterpiece for the rest of us to enjoy. Whether you want to think of yourself as a Specialist in Sparkles, an Expert on Explosions or the Boss on Big Blasts, working in professional fireworks is an adrenaline-filled and creative way to make a living. All around the world, people love to celebrate by attending professional fireworks shows; in the US, the Fourth of July and New Year’s Eve are probably the two biggest nights for shows. Watching a professional fireworks show is as American as apple-pie in our culture. Millions and millions of spectators pull out their picnic blankets and head down to the grassy lawns or scenic overlooks where these pro pyrotechnic shows are featured.
In addition to creating entertainment on holidays, fireworks experts like to compete among each other in the field of pyrotechnics. On of the most well-known professional fireworks competitions in the world is the Montreal Fireworks Festival. This ultimate gathering of geniuses in the industry results in a team-based competition where 30-minute displays are planned, assembled and executed on-site for judges and the delight of the audience. This annual festival began in 1985 and has grown into a prestigious event that hosts pyrotechnicians and their teams who are the crème de la crème. There are many other professional fireworks competitions in addition to this event, such as a well-attended showdown in Japan each year.
If you are not quite a pyro pro yet, but want to look like you are, buy your fireworks from All Sparks Fireworks. This reputable online distributor of fireworks features a huge array of fireworks that are perfect for the home user but would elicit a nod of approval from the seasoned expert. The beauty of these online fireworks, aside from the obvious, is that the prices are reasonable and the items can be shipped straight to your doorstep for the ultimate fireworks fix.

Two planets larger than Earth could be lurking in the outer region of the Solar System according to two new studies published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.
Is crowdfunding a viable option for paying for astronomical research?
The British long-thought-lost Beagle 2 lander has been found intact on the surface of Mars.
Kepler discovers an Earth-sized planet that could be just the right temperature for liquid water to exist on its surface.
Bad Astronomer, Phil Plait, has launched a new educational video series called Crash Course Astronomy.
Astronomers in Australia recently detected a short, 5 millisecond, burst of radio waves from outer space, whose original is as yet, unclear. The most interesting part, from an scientific perspective, is that it was the first time astronomers have ever detected such a burst of radio waves in real time. Previously it’s always been after the fact, when the data from an observation run was analyzed.
However, in this case, there is substantial reason to believe that it’s not a response to SETI. According to data on this event gathered from 12 telescopes around the world the [fast radio burst] originated 5.5 billion light years from Earth. That means that the event which caused the signal happened about 900 million years before our solar system began to form.
Even if it were found to be a communication from an intelligent alien species, by the time we could get a signal back to the source our sun would have burned out.
Such discoveries are important, even if they do turn out to be the result of natural causes. They will help to eliminate false positives, and more important, they tell us more about the Universe we live in.
A year after reporting that NASA’s Curiosity rover had found no evidence of methane gas on Mars, all but dashing hopes that organisms might be living there now, scientists reversed themselves on Tuesday.
Curiosity has now recorded a burst of methane that lasted at least two months.
It could have been created by a geological process known as serpentinization, which requires both heat and liquid water. Or it could be a product of life in the form of microbes known as methanogens, which release methane as a waste product.
Even if the explanation for the methane turns out to be geological, the hydrothermal systems would still be prime locations to search for signs of life.
It’s always possible there is another explanation for the presence of methane on Mars, and scientists will no doubt be working diligently to eliminate those other possibilities in the months ahead, but if the finding holds up, we could be on the cusp of a truly significant breakthrough in the hunt for alien life.
The good news is that we’re already on step three, the bad news is that steps four and five are the most difficult and will likely not be possible until the next generation of telescopes is online.
If, when analyzing a planet’s atmosphere, we find traces of pollutants that have no natural explanation, it could be indicative of some form of intelligence living there. Alternatively, if the planet is close enough, our largest radio telescopes can be trained upon it on the off-chance we might overhear something interesting.
It’s a long shot, but since we’re not going anywhere soon, our only realistic hope of finding intelligent alien life in the near future is to continue searching from afar.
Wanderers is a stunning short film by Erik Wernquist which blends the hauntingly poetic prose of the late Carl Sagan with scenes from a distant future where the human race calls the entire Solar System its home.
I’m not 100% sure about the idea of people floating around in space suits that close to Jupiter, since the hard radiation from that planet’s radiation belts can deliver a lethal dose in seconds, but I guess I can be charitable and accept that we will have solved the problem of shielding people from high-energy sub-atomic particles by the time we’re watching the Great Red Spot disappearing over the horizon.
WHETHER it’s Stephen Hawking predicting the certainty of alien life or the SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) Institute in California claiming that we will “find E.T. within two dozen years,” debate over the existence of aliens is as rife as ever.
For those grappling with the Fermi paradox, this year provided a number of seemingly inexplicable cases that were seized upon by believers as prove that ET is out there. We’ll let you decide.
The article goes on to talk about such astounding revelations as the discovery of bones on Mars, a deathbed confession confirming the presence of aliens in Area 51, images of UFOs hiding behind the Sun, and so on.
Well, as the article is quick to point out, they’re not so much astounding, rather entirely typical of the hokum churned out by the UFO conspiracy theory industry. Still, it’s an entertaining read and an interesting summary of the what the UFOlogists have been up to over the last 12 months. Expect more of the same in 2015.
It’s hard to believe it’s been almost 50 years since Stanley Kubrick’s ground-breaking science fiction movie, 2001: A Space Odyssey, hit the big screen, and while the future didn’t quite pan out the way the movie predicted, it is still seen as a benchmark for space-related movies in terms of scientific accuracy.
The creator of the Jodrell Bank Observatory, Bernard Lovell, influenced the director Stanley Kubrick’s conception of the film. Kubrick wanted the movie grounded in fact and originally planned for it to have a prologue in which Lovell and 20 other scientists would discuss their thoughts about aliens, evolution and space travel. But 2001: A Space Odyssey turned out to be an unusually long film, even without the prologue, and so the 1966 footage was never used and is now lost.
Fortunately, even though the footage has been lost, the transcript is still available in published form, though it is currently out of print.
[Blogger] Doug Messier wrote on Twitter that he witnessed the crash from Jawbone Station, which is on a ridge overlooking the desert where the craft crashed. “We saw the twin contrails of WhiteKnightTwo overhead. They do that prior to a drop,” he tweeted. “SpaceShipTwo dropped. From what I could tell, motor fired and then stopped then fired again. I think that’s what happened.
Messier reported that clouds made it hard to see clearly, but it appeared that SpaceShipTwo “broke apart and started coming down in pieces over the desert.” He added: “We started seeing clouds of dirt where pieces of the ship came down. One after another. At least three.” Messier reported then driving to one of the debris sites. “Debris from the ship was scattered all over the road,” he said.
This is a stark reminder of just how dangerous space flight can be, even sub-orbital space flight. We take so much for granted these days, even when it comes to going into space. In reality, all who fly high enough to see the blackness of space above them should still be regarded as Space Age pioneers.
Condolences to the family and friends of the pilot who died.

The Rt Revd Dr David Carr OBE has stepped down as Senior Pastor of Renewal Christian Centre 47 years after the Solihull church first opened its doors in 1972.
Bishop David Carr, who moved from his role as Marketing Director for the Professional Football Association in PFA Financial Services to leading a Solihull church that has grown to more than 1,600 people, will be succeeded as Senior Pastor by The Reverend Jonny Lee.
To mark the occasion, over 1000 people attended an Honour Service in recognition of Bishop David Carr’s services to Solihull and the wider community throughout nearly half a century. Guests included the Archbishop of York, Dr John Sentamu, The Reverend John Glass, former Chair of the Evangelical Alliance, and The Mayor of Solihull, Councillor Flo Nash.
“At a time when I needed someone to talk to you were there. We lost our son. I appreciated the care and concern you showed us, and so do other people because I know you have done this for special people, friends and families that you’ve had… It’s been a privilege for me and Alan to be classed as a friend for 15 years.
“There comes a time when the natural age diminishes the energy you need to see a church of this size progress, so you need to know when to hand over. I am confident that the spirit and vision are there, and I believe I have found a man of similar heart that I will be thrilled to serve under.
“I was originally taken on to add value and strength to support the existing staff team, but we are overwhelmed by the privilege of leading such an amazing church. You hold in balance the trepidation of following something that has been so successful with the excitement of carrying on the good work and moving the vision forward. Louise and I love the people of Solihull and we want to see a church that knows how to engage with everyone, giving them a hope in Jesus.

The Second Annual James Proclaims Advent Calendar of Christmas(ish) Films – Door 3 – James Proclaims!
The Life of Brian was my introduction to the world of Monty Python, though the first time I watched it, while I found it fairly diverting, much of it was probably lost on me as I was a prepubescent teen, and my friends and I had rented it alongside a few other films (on glorious VHS no less) while attempting to stay awake for 36 hours in an ill-advised attempt to raise money for Comic Relief (incidentally, of the four of us who started that particular quest, I was the only one who made it past 24 hours of uninterrupted consciousness but alas, even I fell at the final hurdle, drifting off at somewhere around hour 34).
I can’t remember what else we rented but The Life of Brian stuck with me as being pretty funny, even if, at the time, it was only the more puerile and silly jokes (which to be fair there are no shortage of in the oeuvre of Cleese et al.) that tickled my funny bone.
Years later, and now a fully-fledged fan of the work of the Pythons, I am able to enjoy The Life of Brian on a more cerebral level. Although it is probably the puerile and silly stuff that works the best.
Often accused of being blasphemous, The Life of Brian is nothing of the sort. It may be set during the lifetime of Christ, but there is absolutely nothing within the movie that lampoons or criticizes Christianity at all.
Indeed, it is pretty clear that the eponymous Brian is absolutely in no way to be considered the Messiah. It’s all just a bit of an unfortunate mix-up.
Some of the humour is, even by the ground-breaking standards of Monty Python, a little dated these days (there’s really only so funny a man pretending to be a woman can be and it’s entirely unclear why, even in 1979, anyone thought there was a need for John Cleese to ‘black up’ in one of the opening scenes) but generally a lot of the jokes stand up pretty well and it’s so relentless that if one joke doesn’t make you laugh, the next one probably will.
Clearly it’s not a Christmas film at all, but the movie does open with the newly born Brian being visited by three wise men bringing gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. Brian’s mother is nonplussed with the myrrh although readily accepts all of the gifts, only for the wise men to realise their error, reclaim the offerings and head to the stable next door, where we eventually find out that the actual Nativity scene is unfolding.
Nothing else Christmas(ish) about the film at all, but a Nativity scene more than qualifies it to make the cut for this list.
I love the John Cleese debate with Malcolm Muggeridge and the Bishop Of Southwark. Pomposity at its highest!

Buildings on the south side of Folsom, New Mexico, Kathy Weiser-Alexander, 2018.
As you continue the drive on Highway 72 headed for Folsom, the descent from the Mesa is spectacular. Folsom is 19 miles past the old settlement of Bell.
The coming of the Colorado and Southern Railroad in 1887 was the start of Folsom. Now a semi ghost town, Folsom is a pleasant ranching community with several historic buildings. The old railroad station, moved from the right-of-way around 1970 is now a private residence; the abandoned stone two-story Folsom Hotel still stands, as well as an old gas station on the corner, several false-front stores on the south side of Main Street; and the general merchandise store, built in 1896, is now a museum.
Read more about Folsom HERE.
Battleship Butte. Photo by Kathy Weiser- Alexander.
Continuing on NM 456, you will cross the Dry Cimarron River several times. At Travessier, there is a picturesque overlook, which is the entrance into the Dry Cimarron Valley, which narrows into a series of wild and wonderful sandstone formations. On the north side, you will see a particular colored sandstone formation called the “Battleship,” named in remembrance of the Maine. You will also see “Wedding Cake Butte,” a round mound rising about 300 feet above the valley floor, where its red, white and brown layers of sandy rock gives it an appearance of a large layered cake. In early days, many couples exchanged wedding vows atop this geographic formation. The drive along NM 456 is a refreshing change from the grasslands.
Just before the Oklahoma border, turn right (south) on Hwy 406 towards McNees Crossing. A state historic sign sits in the actual “ruts” of the Santa Fe Trail. The trail crosses the North Canadian River, which is also called “Corrumpa Creek” by people who live in the area. The crossing is named for a young scout of an east-bound caravan who was killed in the autumn of 1828 by Indians. A short distance to the north is a gate (close it if you go through). To the east is a windmill; nearby is a small marker erected in 1921 on the 90th anniversary of the first celebration of July 4th, in what is now New Mexico.
Continue on NM Highway 406 south towards Seneca and Clayton. You will cross traces of the Old Santa Fe Trail here and again through the Kiowa National Grassland. Many wonder why it’s possible to see so many Santa Fe Trail ruts more than 100 years after the trail closed. It’s a rule of geology that linear scars tend to perpetuate themselves – in other words, ruts are places for rainwater to run like a little stream, so they tend to keep eroding and perpetuate themselves. Clayton is approximately 23 miles from McNees Crossing. Turn right when you reach US 56 to Clayton.
North of Clayton on Highway 370, visit The Clayton Lake State Park to see the tracks left by at least eight different kinds of dinosaurs. Some 100 million years ago this site was actually the shoreline of the Gulf of Mexico. The site is well interpreted and accessible by stairs and a boardwalk. Several of the tracks are unique or reported at only one other site in the world.
Capulin was a distinct landmark for those pioneers who traveled the Santa F Trail. Photo by the National Park Service.
Continue north on Highway 370, turn left on NM Highway 456 back to Folsom. From Folsom, Capulin Mountain is nine miles southwest on NM Highway 325, where you’ll pass Twin Mountain red cinder rock quarry where Black Jack Ketchum was caught. Learning that train robbery was not a viable career option, he was hanged in Clayton, where his body still rests in the cemetery.
The Capulin Volcano National Monument is the only volcano in the world where you can drive to the top and then walk down into the crater or hike the one-mile rim trail for a stunning panorama of the Raton-Clayton Volcanic Field. The volcano was withdrawn from public entry in 1891, but was proclaimed a National Monument by President Wilson on August 9, 1916. It now has a visitor center, a bookstore and exhibits.
To the southeast of Capulin is Sierra Grande, the largest single mountain in the United States — 40 miles around the base and covering 50 square miles. Capulin Volcano National Park closes its doors at 4:30 p.m. — so try to get there by mid-afternoon at the latest. It’s just a short trip to Capulin where one may find food and fuel and an RV camp, or from Folsom, it is eight miles to Des Moines for food, fuel and lodging.
Kenton, Oklahoma Mercantile. Click for prints & products.
Up until 1890, there were no schools in what would become Cimarron County, in the Oklahoma Panhandle and only two communities and post offices — in Mineral City, which claimed 98 inhabitants, and the other in Carrizo, which boasted some 83 people. Carrizo was established about a mile west of where Kenton would later be established.
Today, Kenton is mostly quiet, supporting about 17 residents, including just three children. Two of the children go to school in Clayton, New Mexico, the other to Boise City. Both places are about a 100-mile round trip to school and back every day.

Senior Analyst and Partner at Wainhouse Research (Ira Weinstein) put together a short video that explains the drivers behind changes in the work environment. He delves into why so many companies are looking to video enable their small meeting room spaces.
Huddle Rooms are small meeting spaces for teams to work on projects together.
Cutting edge companies like Uber, Tesla, Hulu, and HubSpot are getting better use out of these team spaces by adding audio, video, digital whiteboarding, and wireless screen sharing to their huddle meetings. This of course, is in addition to their larger conference rooms, training rooms, and executive offices.
Zoom Rooms are software-based video conferencing rooms that are affordable, easy-to-use and deploy, and easy to manage.
With off-the-shelf hardware, you have the flexibility to configure your space to your specific needs.
Zoom Rooms runs on a dedicated Mac or PC, with either an iPad or Android controller, and any camera or speaker.
We offer DIY Install Zoom Room Kits for those in smaller meeting rooms with existing AV fitouts, that are looking to bring the power of a Zoom Room to their business.
Alongside supplying you with the equipment you require to get started, we also run you through face-to-face (via Zoom) training, on-boarding, and provide you with all the support to get started.
If your meeting room is starting to look like an A/V museum and it’s time for a refresh, get in touch to see how we can help.

The following information will help you get started or improve your Boy Scout Troop experience. Coaching and Mentoring are available to all Leaders. Please contact your local Stake Young Men’s Presidency or Josh Dart jd at joshdart.com 949-212-2014 to coordinate and find a coach for you and your Troop.
Varsity is very different that Boy Scouts. Its focus to is to help boys take initiative, seek out ideas, plan, prepare, execute Varsity level activities, and then seek feedback. Varsity Activities ,such as Wilderness Survival, take the challenge to the next level. An example may be Learning to identify and eat local plants or capturing and cooking food you caught, such as snake and rabbit. The Adult Leaders have different roles, too. The adult (the Coach) gets to teach from the sidelines during the activity and in for of the boys before/after the activity. The boys are learning to run the show but the Coach – Coaches them.
This is best accomplished by getting trained (LEARN), seeking out best practices from other Scout Leaders, helping the boys do as much as possible (lead, plan, delegate, fail, and succeed) (ACT), and finding opportunities to share what you have learned with other leaders (SHARE). The Learn, Act, Share Model is central to the Duty to God Program. As the boys are engaged and feel that it is their program, they will step up and take more ownership and initiative. As their leader, it is your responsibility to help encourage them, love them, be an example of the Priesthood, and provide training and direction for your young men. Active quorums meet in Presidency Meetings/ Scout Team Planning Meetings. This should be done 2-3X per month. During these meeting, you will guide the youth to plan upcoming Team Meeting and prepare for upcoming Team Outings, activities, as well in additional to normal Presidency Meeting agenda items.
Each Quarter there are 5 Program managers (boy role), who lead the weekly focus and are in charge in 1 of the areas of Personal Development, High Adventure/Sports, Advancement, Service, or Special Events. There are also adult mentors who help each boy to learn and to help them have a successful lesson/activity.

Why Study Chinese or Japanese?
One of the first liberal arts colleges to establish a department of Chinese in 1965, Connecticut College expanded its unique commitment to the field through the creation of an interdepartmental Asian Studies program in 1970, and again in 1985 with the addition of the department of Japanese. Today Chinese, Japanese and East Asian studies are united under the Department of East Asian Languages and Cultures.
The Department of East Asian Languages and Cultures provides a global education that crosses disciplines and departments. Cross-cultural by nature, the department takes a transnational and transcultural approach to East Asian Studies, while aligning itself with the College’s core academic values of interdisciplinary study, language study and cultural immersion.
The core of the department emphasizes rigorous language study and equips students with the tools and methodologies required to study East Asia. In addition to the media and culture-focused courses offered by the department, students are encouraged to take affiliated East Asia-related courses throughout the college to contextualize their study with other disciplines including art history, American studies, film, gender and women’s studies, and history. As the center of East Asian Studies on campus, the department facilitates student understanding and synthesis of knowledge through its keystone and capstone courses. The department’s coverage remains dynamic, and future transnational and transcultural courses of study aim to incorporate Asian American studies, environmental studies and Vietnamese studies into its existing curriculum.
East Asian Languages and Cultures faculty are active scholars in various fields. Faculty members have been awarded honors including Connecticut Professor of the Year, by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching and the Council for the Advancement and Support of Education; the John S. King Memorial Teaching Award; and Phi Beta Kappa poet of Connecticut College. Faculty research has been supported by fellowships from the Committee on Scholarly Communication with China, the Social Science Research Council, the American Council of Learned Societies, a Mellon Fellowship in the Humanities, and the National Endowment for the Humanities.
The department also has deep roots at the heart the College, and represents the College’s longstanding commitment to integration of the study of East Asia with the liberal arts experience. This commitment is seen in the College’s Chu-Griffis Collection and the Charles Chu Asian Art Reading Room in the Charles E. Shain Library, both named after Professor Emeritus Charles Chu (1918-2008), who helped lay the foundation for the Department of East Asian Languages and Cultures of today.

Further Pennsy design work on a mainline passenger car led to the P-70 coach, which would become one of the most well known and numerous steel passenger car designs. The Pennsy's 1907 order for 200 P-70s, built by ACF, Pressed Steel Car Company and the road's own Altoona shops, was \"the first large-scale commitment\" to steel passenger cars, according to famed railroad historian John H. White, Jr., and \"truly opened the age of the steel passenger car.\" To compete with the Pennsy, other railroads found it necessary to upgrade to steel cars as well - initially just on premier name trains, and later throughout their fleets. Reluctantly, and under pressure from the Pennsy's requirement that only steel cars enter its New York terminal, Pullman converted to steel construction as well. On the west coast, the Southern Pacific had been an early advocate of steel passenger cars along with the Pennsy, and the lines controlled by E.H. Harriman, including the SP, UP, Illinois Central and Central of Georgia, were among other early adopters.
By around 1910, when Pennsylvania Station opened, the steel car had evolved into the so-called \"heavyweight\" design that would remain largely unchanged until the 1930s. Heavyweights, as depicted in our RailKing models, were characterized by a clerestory roof (a holdover from the wood car era), riveted steel bodies, and a massive steel fishbelly underframe that contributed most of the cars' battleship-like strength. Unlike some later designs, the sides and roof of a heavyweight were mostly along for the ride, and added little to the cars' structural integrity. The design, however, proved tremendously durable. Many cars lasted more than 50 years in mainline service, rolling for decades alongside - and intermixed with - much newer lightweight streamlined cars.

Check out the video for “Brick by Boring Brick” by the band Paramore. Not only are the lyrics very applicable to the Girl Underground, but the video itself is totally part of the archetype, right down to the very end when the girl indeed goes under the ground.
Thanks to reader Sofia for pointing me to this one!

Back in the '90s I wrote an occasional political satire column for a monthly called The Comic Press News. I remember during the run up to the '98 Governors election there was a three way race on the Democratic side leading up to the primary between Gray Davis, Kathleen Brown and Tom Hayden. Davis and Brown were about even in the polls with Hayden trailing them both by about ten points, if I recall correctly. It was still very much anybody's race. One major gaffe could easily swing everything.
Gray Davis had made a speech in which he made a statement that sounded like a promise to institute random locker searches in the schools as part of an anti-drug policy. I had heard talk about a new proposed bill to institute random urine testing in schools in the Capitol building elevator a few days earlier. I called up his press liaison introduced myself and asked for a clarification on the candidate's statement.
There was a pause..."You're going to write a satire on us, aren't you?"
"That depends on what I find out."
Almost immediately pages started coming out of the fax machine. After reading the text, and reading between the lines, it seemed likely that Mr. Davis was trying to kill the urine test bill by proposing something weaker as an alternative and siphoning enough votes away from it to his own...which might very well not pass either. A clever maneuver and one frequently used. If you are around politics much you see it fairly often.
The problem is, to people who don't deal with politics and politicians it looks like a real attempt to start searching our children's property at school. When someone who seems fairly progressive seems to support something like that it looks a little less odious the next time and then one day it actually becomes law because everybody does subtle maneuvers and all too few speak out for principles.
And so we go from searching your kid's locker to you peeing in a cup to get a job...any job. Then before you know it we all get scanned and groped before we can get on a plane. It all comes about because nobody wants to look soft on crime, and so they settle for just a little infringement of our rights and dignity and the Bill Of Rights dies the death of a thousand paper cuts.

The “muffuletta” (or “muffaletta” or any number of spellings) is a sandwich that is served in a large, round loaf of crusty Sicilian bread, with three meats (capicola, salami, mortadella), cheese (provolone), and an olive salad. Most scholars credit the origin of the sandwich to Sicilian immigrant Salvatore Lupo’s Central Grocery (opened in 1906) on Decatur Street in New Orleans. The Progress Grocery on Decatur Street also claimed to have created the sandwich, around 1895.
Schlotzsky’s Deli began in Austin, Texas in 1971 with one sandwich called “The Original,” inspired by the New Orleans muffuletta sandwich. Jason’s Deli was founded in Beaumont, Texas in 1976, and also features a “muffaletta” sandwich. Both Schlotzsky’s and Jason’s have been franchised.
In 2002, newspaper articles were published (see below) crediting Anthony Lavoi of Galveston for originating the muffuletta when he was living in New Orleans. Maceo Spice & Imports of Galveston serves muffulettas and claims to hold the original recipe, with a secret muffuletta olive dressing.
The long list of the names of sandwiches served on long rolls includes blimpie, bomber, Cuban (medianoche), Dagwood, garibaldi, gondola, grinder, hero, hoagie, Italian, jawbreaker, peacemaker (La Mediatrice), pilgrim, pistolette, po’ boy (poor boy), rocket, skyscraper, spiedie, spucky (spuckie, spukie), submarine (sub), torpedo, torta (Mexican po’ boy), wedge and zeppelin (zep).
The muffuletta (with numerous alternate spellings) is a type of Sicilian bread, as well as a sandwich in New Orleans, Louisiana, which is made with that bread.
The bread is a large, round, and somewhat flat loaf, around 10 inches (25 cm) across. It has a sturdy texture, and is described as being somewhat similar to focaccia.
The muffuletta sandwich originated in 1906 at Central Grocery, which was operated by Salvatore Lupo, a Sicilian immigrant. The sandwich is popular with city natives and visitors, and has been described as “one of the great sandwiches of the world.” Central Grocery still serves the sandwich using the original recipe. Other variations are served throughout the city. The locals have differing opinions on which shop serves the best muffuletta.
A typical muffuletta consists of one muffuletta loaf, split horizontally. The loaf is then covered with a marinated olive salad, then layers of capicola, salami, mortadella, emmentaler, and provolone. The sandwich is sometimes heated through to soften the provolone.
The olive salad is considered the heart of the sandwich, and consists primarily of olives, along with celery, cauliflower, and carrot. The ingredients are combined, seasonings are added, covered in olive oil and allowed to combine for at least 24 hours. Prepared olive salad for muffulettas can also be bought by the jar in New Orleans grocery stores.
The muffuletta is the signature sandwich at the Jason’s Deli chain and also at Murphy’s Deli. Schlotzsky’s chain of restaurants features sandwiches using sourdough muffuletta bread.
Jason’s Deli is a fast casual restaurant chain, serving sandwiches, soups, salads and baked potatoes with side orders.
Jason’s Deli was founded in 1976 in Beaumont, Texas by Joe Tortorice, and his partners are Pat Broussard, Rusty Coco, and Pete Verde. The original deli is still in operation in the Gateway Shopping Center. The chain started franchising in 1983 with the first franchise deli in Tucson, Arizona.
The majority of the over 150 units are in Texas, the Southeast U.S. and the Southwest U.S., but expansion into the east coast and other regions is underway. The parent company is Deli Management, Inc., which owns the majority of the Jason’s Delis. Both the number of company-owned delis and franchises are on the rise. The newest additions include a store on Wilcrest at Westheimer in Houston,TX and a smaller store in Flower Mound, Texas, that is the first to feature drive thru service. Stores are coming soon for downtown Dallas, TX, and Phoenix, AZ.
The muffaletta is Jason’s Deli’s signature sandwich. It is served on 9-inch sesame seed bread with ham and hard salami, or turkey, with provolone cheese and an olive mixture.
Barq’s [pronounced “Barks"] is an American soft drink company. “Barq’s” was long the name of the company’s signature product, now known as Barq’s Famous Olde Tyme Root Beer, a brand of root beer notable for being the only major North American root beer to contain caffeine. It has been bottled since the start of the 20th century and is currently sold by The Coca-Cola Company.
The Barq’s Brothers Bottling Company was founded in 1890 in the French Quarter of New Orleans, Louisiana, by Edward Charles Edmond Barq and his younger brother, Gaston. The Barq Brothers bottled carbonated water and various soft drinks of their own creation. Early on their most popular creation was an orange-flavored soda called Orangine, which won a gold medal at the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition World’s Fair in Chicago, Illinois.
Edward Barq moved to Biloxi, Mississippi, in 1897 with his new wife. The following year he opened the Biloxi Artesian Bottling Works. 1898 is often given as the debut year for what was later to be known as “Barq’s root beer,” but some sources say this particular product was not produced until some two years later.

We feel that this is one of the reasons Sunrise muffuletta has found such favor as New Orleans’ family bread. Muffuletta just naturally belongs with good food. It has the happy ability to fit in with whatever you plan to serve. The flavor of muffuletta excites the taste and increases the enjoyment not only of the bread but of every dish in the meal. Generous servings of muffuletta bread are welcome whether you are entertaining formally or having the neighbors over for barbecued chicken thie week end.
Next time you’re in the French Market section, visit our new French Market branch, 929 Decatur. It’s just across the street from the French market. We’re open round the clock for your convenience.

McClanahan thought it was a joke, but he went inside. The proprietor took a loaf of bread and started piling in thinly sliced meats, anchovies, tomatoes, cheese. it cost $1.
The Central Grocery Company (923 Decatur St.—ed.) is a fine old food market in the French Quarter dispensing cheeses, imported foods, great aromas, cold cuts, and that great New Orleans Italian sandwich, the Muffuletta (highly recommended)—salami, cheese, olive salad, and ham on a huge round loaf of Italian bread. The Central’s version of this local favorite is one of the best.
The Progress Grocery (915 Decatur St.—ed.) is one of the great food emporiums in New Orleans. Here one can obtain all kinds of exotic foods imported from all over the world. Amid the sacks of flour, grains, and spices, the Progress turns out one of the formidable sandwiches of the world, and a New Orleans favorite, the Muffuletta (highly recommended). This is a huge Italian feast of salami, ham, cheese, olive salad, and garlic on a large round loaf. I have never been able to eat a whole sandwich at one sitting; one sandwich should comfortably feed two for lunch. The cost is $1.15 and the Progress version of the Muffuletta is one of the very best in town.
Charlie’s (Charlie’s New York Delicatessen, 2023 Metairie—ed.) carries—and indeed proudly features--local specialties that most New Yorkers have never dreamed of, such as oyster poor boys, Muffulettas, and moon sandwiches (they are “out of this world,” and consist of ham, cheese and roast beef).
Also on Decatur are several stores, such as Central Grocery and Progress Grocery, that serve Muffulettas, a winning combination sandwich of ham, salami, cheese and olive salad. These groceries specialize in French, Italian, Greek, Arabic and other foreign imported foods.
To feel a little like a native, a visitor can order a muffuletto sandwich at the Central Grocery store on Decatur Street a block or so from the French Market. It consists of slices of cheese, meat and salad in a round, flat loaf of bread—plenty for two.
Creole daubes of beef with their rich brown gravy are served with spaghetti at many New Orleans-Italian restaurants, and the city’s salumerias all turn out the muffaletto, a round variation on the hero sandwich, distinguished by a layer of olive and caper salad with plenty of its oil marinade to bathe the bread.
NEW ORLEANS (UPI)—In a city famed for mouthwatering workingman’s foods such as roast beef poor boy sandwiches and red beans and rice, the Creole-Italian muffuletta is a special feast.
Slices of provolone cheese, Genoa salami and Italian ham topped wit ha freshly made, well-seasoned olive salad and tucked between slices of the special muffuletta loaf—a 10-inch crusty disc sprinkled with sesame seeds—form a sandwich to feed two adults for about $2.40.
New Orleans is the only place to get a true muffuletta, although flimsy imitations have been reported in New York and Chicago. Forget Italy.
“You go to Italy and ask them to make a muffuletta and they don’t know what you’re talking about,” said Frank Tusa, co-owner of the Central Grocery.
No one is quite sure who created the sandwich, although it is generally agreed it came into being about the turn of the century. The basis of the sandwich is the muffuletta loaf, which Tusa said probably cannot be duplicated anywhere else because the New Orleans water and humid climate are factors.
The Central Grocery, across the street from the French Market, consistently is rated by local food writers as the best muffuletta shop in town. A sign out front identifies it as the “Home of the original muffuletta” despite Tusa’s insistence the shop is a grocery first.
It’s in the form of a revealing letter from Mari Lupo Tusa, daughter of Salvatore Lupo, founder in 1906 of Central Grocery on Decatur, together with her brother-in-law, Gaetano DeMajo.
You buy a muffuletta sandwich at the Central Grocery, a block away, and walk back to the square with the store’s mist of olive oil, garlic and Italian cheese in your head.
Historically speaking, the muffuletta has several decades on the po’boy. The Central Grocery on Decatur Street is the self-proclaimed progenitor of this dinner-plate-sized sandwich. As the legend goes, around the turn of the century a grocer named Sal Lupo layered meats, cheeses and the crushed leavings from the bottom of the olive barrel on a round Italian bread and called it a muffuletta. Muffuletta was the baker who made the sesame-studded loaves; he was also a regular at the grocery. Central is now owned by the Tusas, descendants of the Lupos, and still makes the quintessential muffuletta, but that hasn’t stopped others from coming up with their own versions.
The big uneasy: who invented the muffuletta?
Decatur, which runs the length of the Quarter from Canal Street down past Esplanade Avenue, has its fill of New Orleans attractions. The House of Blues holds down one end, Jackson Square with its cathedral and street musicians grounds the middle, and the French Market marks the far side, where it runs off into the adjacent Faubourg Marigny neighborhood. It’s down at this end that those interested in this huge, round sandwich come. Although the sandwich has by now made its way onto the menu of almost every casual restaurant in town, this is where the super sub - a pile of Italian cheeses and cold cuts topped by a greasy, salty, chopped olive spread - was invented, some say perfected.
The only question remaining is: By whom?
“Imitated by all, duplicated by none,” boasts the aprons for sale at Central Grocery at 935 Decatur St. “Home of the original muffuletta,” the window says.
Whatever its origins, the muffuletta is worth fighting over. Set in a white, round Italian roll as big across as a dinner plate, a proper muffuletta is piled about an inch high with layers of provolone cheese, mortadella, Genoa salami, and cappicola ham. The olive spread on top - a mix of chopped green olives, garlic, celery, onions, and other delectables in oil - soaks into the bread and lubricates the fillings.
Suffice it to say, one whiff and the partisan feelings are explained. With a bag of the local Zapp’s potato chips and a Barq’s root beer, it’s more than a meal.
The muffaletta sandwich was the invention of a Sicilian immigrant who opened a small grocery in New Orleans in 1906. His name was Anthony Lavoi. he would take the broken oil pieces and oil from the bottom of the barrels in his store, spread them on a round baguette, add some thinly sliced mortadella, mozzarella, salami, provolone and ham, then douse the whole thing with a mixture of red wine vinegar, olive oil and finely chopped garlic. The Italians call those crusty rolls “muffas.” Lavoi called his sandwich a muffaletta.
Almost from the day Lavoi concocted and sold his first sandwich, one old Sicilian after another tried to claim it as his own invention. It obtained its notoriety at the Central Grocery on New Orleans’ Decatur Street, and it’s still sold there today.
Anthony Lavoi was the great uncle of R. S. Maceo Sr., and Maceo’s got the original recipe. And it’s from that original recipe that most days Mr. R. S. makes muffalettas for sale at his store.
What separates the authentic muffaletta from the copy is the recipe for the sandwich spread that we aficionados refer to as “olive salad.” It’s one of those things you either make right or wrong. There’s no such thing as a reasonably OK olive salad. And the muffaletta has to be made with a muffa roll.
The only thing missing at Maceo’s is Barq’s Root Bee, and for all I know it could be that Barq’s isn’t even made anymore. Nevertheless, in the old days, a Barq’s was to a muffaletta what a beer is to a pretzel.
Galveston, Texas Family Lays Claim to First Muffuletta Sandwich.
Nov. 24—GALVESTON, Texas—While making a muffuletta in the kitchen of Maceo Spice & Import Co., Rosario Maceo shared a few of his opinions on the sandwich.
It’s ridiculous the things people put in them, Maceo said. They use the wrong meats and even put “cauliflower and that other crap” in the olive dressing.
Watching television recently, he saw a well-known chef create a muffuletta, and the finished product “looked so goofy I couldn’t believe it,” he said.
“He was using lettuce, Ronnie,” Maceo said to his son in disbelief.
Oh, and Maceo also mentioned that the muffuletta was invented by his great-uncle, Tony Lavoi, in New Orleans, and only Maceo Spice & Import has the recipe.
“We make the original,” Maceo said emphatically. “Don’t give him the recipe,” he instructed his son while pointing to a reporter.
Rosario and Ronnie Maceo, of the legendary Galveston Maceo family, are father-and-son proprietors of the Strand-area shop where their muffuletta is sold.
Maceo family lore is richer than their olive dressing. Their relatives ran the famous and wildly entertaining Balinese Room, a pier restaurant and illegal casino, which drew Hollywood’s elite.
For decades the Maceos just about ran Galveston.
So when Rosario Maceo says an ancestor came up with the muffuletta, one stops to listen.
But while the 84-year-old Maceo claims to be the genealogical heir to the muffuletta of origin, he and his son don’t seem to be trying very hard to capitalize on it.
Conventional wisdom has it that Central Grocery in New Orleans came up with the sandwich in 1906.
One of the current owners of Central Grocery, Frank Tusa, said by phone that the sandwich was indeed first put together at his grocery store. The Tusa family took over the grocery in 1953. Tusa credited his father, Charlie Tusa, and late uncle, Frank Tusa, with popularizing the muffuletta.
Rosario Maceo’s version of the muffuletta’s birth is that his great uncle, a native of Palermo, Sicily, came to New Orleans and created the sandwich around 1901.
As a boy of 7 or so, Rosario hung around his Uncle Tony and watched him make the sandwich. His kitchen was in a warehouse in the French Quarter, where he made the buns, too, Maceo said.
Lavoi sold muffulettas from a wooden pushcart at the corner of Royal and Dumain, Maceo said, and they were wrapped in pages of the New Orleans Picayune.
Maceo said his great-uncle supplied Central Grocery with six to eight muffulettas a day.
Maceo’s ancestors moved from New Orleans to Galveston, where they would make their name in the entertainment business.
Their Maceo Spice & Imports is on the outskirts of Galveston’s Strand district, not on one of its trendy streets. Several of the spaces around the import shop are empty. Across the street is an old furniture store.
In 1973, Ronnie opened the Turf Tap Room and Grill in Galveston and needed a sandwich to serve. His father recalled his great-uncle’s recipe and began making the muffuletta.
Their muffulettas are made with salami, ham, provolone cheese, olive dressing and olive oil—all of it imported.
Do they ever use turkey?
“No! Hell no!” Rosario said.
Some muffuletta aficionados believe the sandwich should only be eaten at room temperature, but Rosario insisted that a reporter bite into it immediately after it came out of the oven.
After the reporter complimented him on the sandwich, Maceo insisted that he include in the article how much he liked it.
“The secret is in the olive dressing, my friend,” Rosario said.
The big, round sandwich weighs a pound and a half and sells for $8.95. They sell halves for $4.95.
But there is one recipe Rosario doesn’t share with his son: The one for muffuletta olive dressing.
He has told no one.
“It’s probably gonna go with him,” Ronnie said.
“Before I pass, I’ll let him know,” Rosario said.
MY FATHER ROSARIO MACEO DIED FEBUARY 5 2009,THE RECEIPE WAS PASSED ON. AFTER HURRICANE IKE MACEO’S MOVED TO IT’S WAREHOUSE AT 2706 MARKET AND IS STILL OPERATING AND MAKING MACEO;S ORIGINAL MUFFALETTAmany EVERYDAY.

Halloween Language Activities - For Pirates Only!
I’m going to work at the Crusty Crab with Squidward.
I shot a bolt of ice, ran up into the mountains and sang my heart out.
(Yes, I have two young children and I admit I virtually know this movie by heart.) The important thing is to give your child ownership of this spiel; help them come up with it themselves. Then you can edit it slightly to add in a couple extra words with /r/ in them, or a couple more irregular past tense verbs (i.e. that do not form the past tense by simply adding “-ed”). Then, every time your child interacts with an adult or peer in the endless pursuit of high fructose corn syrup, he or she can say this spiel to introduce his or her character. In this same vein, you could have your child sing a song associated with that character. And while singing generally activates a different part of the brain as speech and language do, this practice is still helpful in working toward your child’s speech goals.
You could use this list in your home practice for the two weeks leading up to Halloween, or tailor it to meet your child’s goals. For example, for a child primarily targeting the /s/ sound, you could substitute any words that do not contain the /s/ sound. So, for the list above, you could omit warlock, carve, jack-o-lantern, caramel, trick or treat, pirate and candy car, and then add: ghost, skeleton, haunted house, cemetery, spooky, spider.
Halloween-themed activities (e.g. baking Halloween treats, carving a pumpkin, shopping for costumes or candy, setting up a haunted house) are fertile opportunities for practicing speech goals. Simply stick to a key word or two with each activity (e.g. carve in pumpkin carving or scream in setting up a haunted house) and come up with a number of questions and items of conversation. These activities are so motivating and language-stimulating that you won’t have to worry about eliciting language from your child; these key words are simply there to organize the activities and to help keep language flowing. I also recommend Speaking of Speech’s exhaustive list of great Halloween-related speech activities. Some suggestions require printing and/or procuring items you’d find your home (dice, tokens, scissors, tape, etc.) but this is generally a really strong list of activities.
What would be the most fun way to spend Halloween day?
Draw and describe your own haunted house.
What is the scariest story you’ve ever heard?
Describe the coolest Halloween costume you’ve ever seen.
What five things are you hoping to get trick-or-treating and why?
If your child is on the older side (say age seven and up), this would do well as a combined drawing and writing exercise. If your child is younger, a drawing and expressive narrative (i.e. talking out the task) activity is probably more appropriate. The major take away here is that activities that naturally elicit language from a child are always preferable. Sometimes, during a normal home-based activity, it can be hard to find activities that both elicit language and are naturally motivating to a child. Anything related to Halloween can be an ideal chance to get your child talking! And, as she begins to really get in the swing of such a narrative activity, you can insert your child-specific speech and language target to keep your home-based work consistent.
Autumn is a great time to invigorate your home-based speech and language work with the excitement of the season. With the Halloween language activities above, you can inject some Halloween fun into your home-based work and get you and your child closer to their goals.

I feel good. The flu I had has gone away. Jippii! Such ordinary things like breakfast feels great when you aren't sick anymore. I'm happy. But one thing I've been thinking during this week. We do think a lot about our own happiness, don't we. We people. Or we think things what would make us happy.
Nowadays I think I am happy about my daily life. Don't get me wrong. I mean my life is enough perfect for me. There are things I like to change, there are things I dream of...but luckily I've noticed I have less and less to complain about. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. You get easily too blind and tired of everything. You can't get out of the situation or you might not be brave enough or you feel paralyzed to do something about it so what you can do is complain.
So I thought this morning is just perfect time to remind me and you whatever our thoughts are - please think again. Make something to change the situation if there is more negative thoughts than positive ones going around in your head and if you find yourself thinking positive and good things - Yes! Keep it going!
I know all this might sound annoying but I have to admit that writing about these things, it's not easy task because I feel a bit ashamed. It's hard to admit own weaknesses but same time maybe I should be proud of myself because I've learnt something. That's life!

Pictured L to R: Monica Fleck ’18, Madyson Bolton ’18, Becket Monaghan ’19, and Sarah Austin ’17.
Monica Fleck ’18 was named All State 11-12 Orchestra, Viola 2; Madyson Bolton ’18 was named All State Honor Choir, Second Soprano; Sarah Austin ’17 was named All State Honor Choir, Second Soprano; and Becket Monaghan ’19 was named All State Honor Choir Alternate in the First Alto Section. To make it to All State, our girls first had to compete in regional finals and then re-audition for state with only about six weeks to learn new material.
All State repertoire is more difficult than All West, and conductors come from all over the country to work with these young musicians. Conductors and students will have two days to rehearse before performing at the Opryland hotel in Nashville, Tennessee. The girls attending will head to Nashville on Wednesday, April 5, for rehearsals. Choir concerts will take place Friday, April 7, beginning at 6:00 pm. Orchestra concerts are Saturday, April 8, and Monica will play at 11:00 am.
These girls represent the best of the best in the entire state of Tennessee. We are so proud of our girls’ hard work, determination, and passion for music. Way to go!

See The Social Graph at its new home on bradley-holt.com.
In my last post about the semantic web I mentioned the XFN project which allows individuals to define their relationships to others simply using semantically marked up hyperlinks. I also said that a global graph can be made of all of these relationships making the "walled gardens" of existing social networking sites obsolete. Before I continue, I should probably mention that the word "graph" in this context refers to graph theory in computer science, not a chart or diagram (although these graphs could be visualized). At risk of over-simplifying: graph theory talks about how individual "nodes" connect to one another and how data can be extracted from looking at these connections.
The power of this open data is another example of why facebook won’t last as a walled garden. I don't expect existing social networking sites to simply disappear. However, open standards like XFN and FOAF will help level the playing field amongst social networks by allowing even small social networks to benefit from the network effect. Having lots of social networks trying out different things can only be good for innovation in the long run.

Because the world is not our permanent home, it’s important to view life with eternity in mind. It’s easy to become focused solely on our current challenges, our needs and our wants. The Bible is giving us a reminder that there is more at stake than our temporary struggles. We should live with the perspective that eternity lasts much longer than our current life. With this in mind, we should accept Jesus into our hearts to ensure we are spending eternity with Him. We should also share the message of the Gospel with others so they can spend eternity with Jesus. Have you accepted Christ? Are you sharing the Gospel with your family and friends?

The change in Linda’s mood and the smile on her face as she loses the weight she thought was impossible to shed is far more important than my weekly weigh-in. Her support for me has now turned... Stay Hydrated. Drinking plenty of fluids is not only an essential part of any successful diet; it’s an essential part of life. Every organ, cell, tissue, and muscle in your body depends on water.
Stay Hydrated. Drinking plenty of fluids is not only an essential part of any successful diet; it’s an essential part of life. Every organ, cell, tissue, and muscle in your body depends on water.
I have managed to lose weight 3-4 times with diet and regular exercise however once I lose weight I get back to normal life and in a period of a year or so get back all the lost weight. I have realized that a healthy life style is what I need. Thanks to the article to confirm my thought.

The coming digital journalist will mean refined ways of researching stories, knowing who is where at news events, easier source identification through face-recognition software and digital note-taking.
Oh and by the way? That digital journalist is now here.
Amy Webb, a technology guru whom I revere, offered up her annual 10 tech trends for journalists at the Online News Association conference in Boston in September 2011. The trends come from the work she does through her company, Webbmedia Group, which is basically a digital-strategy consultant business that tracks techy trends through research, interviews, networking, focus groups and observations.
Refined Search: New kinds of search engines can help you target your research findings much more precisely than just Google or Yahoo. Take advantage of the “smart” functions of features like “Google +1” that help the engine know your preferences. See: Google +1, Google Related, Heliod, Greplin’s app.
Inner Circles: Features like Google Circles are allowing you to curate conversation around specific topics and groups of people. So for journalists, consider exploring these new programs to conduct focus groups, organize key influencers and keep up to date on product launches and other industry-specific news.
Social-Proximity Networks: These show you who else is around you when you are at a conference, in a meeting, or just out and about. Besides Foursquare, there is also: Nerd Nearby (and a bunch of others but I can’t seem to verify on the web, so I’m going to have to get back to them later when I make sure I’ve written them down correctly).
Face and Iris Recognition: Face.com and Facebook are helping us identify and tag people in images. Creepy, right?! But imagine as a reporter taking a picture of someone on your phone and finding out who they are in a few seconds. Great for those of us who can’t remember people’s names for the life of us. See: Viewdyl. A bunch of others are coming too.
Digital Note-Taking: The Livescribe, ABBYY, and Wacom Inkling mean you can take notes (and comment on your notes) digitally by hand.
Quick and Long Reads: Consider marketing that long piece to byliner or longreads, which show the reader how many minutes it would take to read the entire thing. And for that shorter stuff, check out Amazon Kindle Singles and Apple short-reads content.
Gestural Interfaces: This technology will enable people to interact with a digital device without touching it. (I had to wikipedia it while she was talking.) Not a lot out right now, but she says to look out for: Kinect, Android@Home, and stuff from Apple, MSFT, and Primesense 3D.
Pre-cognition reporting: Data visualization tools that can predict where trends are heading (in other words, to see the future!). Check out the Terminator Vision app and Recorded Future.
Ethics in Digital Journalism: Amy ended with a caution about digital technologies taking over the world, and more importantly, our souls (my words, not hers). She reminded us that just because you CAN use digital tools to do just about anything, doesn’t mean you SHOULD (again, my words, not hers but this was the basic takeaway).

I completed my research on campus in chemistry Professor Kyle Broaders’ lab. During the summer, I worked full time for about nine weeks, although I have been working on this project since January.
Basically, I used the concepts typically learned in Organic Chemistry to engineer a biocompatible polymer that can be made into microparticles and inserted into the body. These microparticles can carry drugs or possibly genes that would be flushed into the body, and this form of immunology is called particulate immunotherapy. It’s better than vaccines because it doesn’t require a live virus — which is contagious — to inoculate and the particles are customizable based on their intended function. They also don’t have to be injected through IV into the bloodstream, they can be injected directly to a specific area and will not be distributed throughout the entire body if desired.
My long term goals are to hopefully write a thesis including this work and a whole lot more. For both of us — Professor Broaders and me — we are working to publish this work by the end of the school year and we have a huge list of further experiments to expand upon our current data.
I have learned so much from this experience about the world of research in general and about the discipline of polymer chemistry on the micro scale. Working full time over the summer was a wake-up call because all of a sudden it wasn’t just an hour or two every other day in lab, it was eight to nine hours every single day. It was challenging but rewarding and I liked being able to accomplish things at an exponentially faster rate than I could during the semester. I learned how to plan out my entire week and how to be self-motivated and autonomous.
My advice to students hoping to do summer research is to join a lab in the spring so you already have an idea of what you will be doing and you can get the most out of the time during the summer. Don’t be afraid to ask for help, even if you’ve asked the same question before. Sometimes — depending on the nature of your research — you could be working with potentially dangerous materials and no one will blame you if you say you’d feel more comfortable being watched by a supervisor the first (or even second) time you go through a procedure.
Also, make sure you get yourself out of the lab at least a few times a week because it’s the summer, and Vitamin D is good for you. I haven’t personally done research off campus, but I know people that have and their advice usually is similar; explore the area that you’re working in with your fellow researchers. Make friends with them because you probably have a lot in common.

Runequest Thursday #191 - Runic Artifacts for Older School and RQG games!
In this RQT, I took a shot a writing up rules for Runic Artifacts that could work in Older Runequest Systems like RQ2 or RQ3 as well as for the latest version, which folks are calling RQG!
Now, I admit I have been too busy to allow myself to get lost in RQG yet, so I may not have a handle on how things should work. But the mechanic I chose is the ability for working the RQG version of the Artifact is the Runic Passion, and the ability to Invoke it to gain a bonus in game. Each artifact confers a number of abilities, some of which must be triggered by the Attuner of the Artifact, but one of which functins as long as the Artifact is on the Attuner's person.
Below you will find several powerful magic items, such as would be suitable rewards for certain successful heroquests, the attainment of Runelevel status, or similar. These artifacts are reasonably powerful, and should never be available for “sale”, as it were. Rumor of their appearance is generally enough to bring powerful parties in search of them, so possessing one “paints a target” on one’s back!
Note that each artifacts works best in the possession of someone who embodies that Rune. In older School Runequest, this means being a Rune level or Acolyte in a cult that holds that Rune (examples: Death Humakt, Air for Orlanth). In RQG, this means Someone having a passion for that Rune at 80% or higher. HOW the person accesses that rune is not important, so a sorcerer with a runic connection is as viable as attuner as is a cultist.
Runic Artifacts are associated with a single rune, and are often considered sacred to a cult that embraces that rune, but the artifact itself is not affiliated with the cult, only the rune. ANY cult expressing that rune can access the artifact.
In order to Access the powers of a Runic Artifact, it must first be Attuned. This requires and Attunement ritual, in which the hero attempt to comprehend the expression of the Rune that she shares with the artifact. This takes 3d8 hours, and requires a significant investment of ritual materials and practices sacred to the cult (the details of which the player of the hero is encouraged to imagine).
At the end of the Rite, the hero should roll POW x5% or less (in Older School) or against the percentage Runic Passion. On a success, the Artifact is attuned, and the hero immediately loses 1 to 3 Permanent POW, which infuses the Artifact and powers the Attunement. In addition to binding the hero to the artifact, these POW constitute a repository which the possessing her may use to access the powers of the Artifact. So the more of the hero’s POW investing in the Artifact, the more often the hero can benefit from its effects.
I provided two sample artifacts, but people can make more using the formula - and I probably will!
In order to use an artifact, an attuned hero must fulfill all of the following.
The artifact must be on the attuner’s person.
The Attuner must have Magic Points available and be conscious, or in RQG games, her Passion for the attuned rune must be accessible (not exhausted through use).
Each artifact has a Passive Effect. Regardless of whether the other powers are available to the attuner, she can always benefit from the Passive Effect, simply by having the Artifact on her person.
The artifact may be used once for each POW in the Artifact’s Attunement, which lasts for up to 10 minutes x the number of POW attuned into the artifact. Exhausted uses may be recharged in Older School games by devoting 10 Magic Points to the Artifact per POW to be recharged, or in RQG when after the interval in which you would recover your attuned Rune.
This wizened talisman appears to be a cord of woven tendon and catgut, on which is strung a small mummified feline talon. It expresses the Beast Rune: Cat, might be coveted by a Basmoli lionman, Hsunchen Pantherchild, Lunar Tiger Cultist, even a Yinkin Acolyte.
Passive Effect: The attuner’s Move Silently skill is increased by 10% x the number of POW in the Attunement.
Cat’s Paw: Allows the attuner to mentally possess (with a POW contest if the cat resists) the body of a single feline within her POW x 10 yards. Though she remains within her own body and may still act normally, while within range, she can also act through the cat. The attuner can even take action in both forms, but no matter what, can only take the same total number of actions as ever, simply split between the two forms as she wishes. While within range, she can perceive through the cat’s senses, but using her own Perceptions skill(s).
Optional “Unlockable”: Cat’s Talon: Allows the attuner to manifest a feline talon, either a glowing semi-transparent physical talon, or one of flesh and blood, that seamlessly blends with the arm of the attuner. The Talon does 1d10+1 damage (not including damage bonus), counts as a magic weapon, and confers a stackable enhancement not unlike Bladesharp, adding +5% to hit and +1 Damage per POW in the Attunement.
This medallion is of gold and emblazoned on each side with a sun in splendor, its rays extending to the edges of the medallion, its humanoid features stern and implacably. To each holder of Light of Day, the face displayed appears to be an idealized version of the deity they imagine to embody Fire and Sky. So a Yelmalion might perceive a beardless youth with a powerful stare, while a cultist of the Sundragon would see note the wyrmish slit eyes, the long snout, prominent teeth and scales of the inhuman head.
Passive Effect: As long as Light of Day shines, the attuner has a Bonus to Visual Perception equal to 10% x the now of POW in the Attunement.
Light of Day: Shines with all the powers of true Daylight, creating a lighted area with a radius equal to 10 yards x the POW in the Attunement. Within this area, creatures (like trolls and vampires) who suffer from daylight are fully afflicted. The direction of the light is from the medallion, so shadowed areas are horizontal from the medallion. If there is other daylight, this will make it all but impossible to avoid exposure. If there no other source of daylight, shadowed areas are determined with the medallion as the light source.
Optional “Unlockable”: Gaze of Skyfire: A single beam of solar energy may be directed at a single target, doing 4d6 Fire damage to its target’s total Hit Points on a POW contest success. If the target is susceptible to fire or daylight, even a failed attack does half damage.

Hi and thanks for stopping by! This is my corner of the internet where I share my love for travelling and also my appreciation for the history of the world – two things that go together quite well I think!
I’m aiming to champion the amazing history of our world through this blog, sharing the best historical places to go, things to see and sharing why they’re important.
I travel with my husband James almost always and sometimes with our dog Annie and sometimes with our kids who are almost grown now. Not only do we love history destinations, but also road trips and out of season travelling in the winter (I blame getting married in February – so many city anniversary trips!!). Our favourite places are Scotland, England, Europe and USA but so much more to explore!
Want to know more about us? See here or take a look around the site.

DALLAS, TX — (October 07, 2015) – Plexon Inc, the leader in advanced hardware and software solutions for neuroscience and behavioral research, announces a late-breaking opportunity for attendees of Neuroscience 2015 in Chicago, Illinois to witness an active demonstration of Plexon’s CineLAB™ Behavioral Research System ( CineLAB System) operating within a Bussey-Saksida Touch Screen Mouse Chamber offered by Lafayette Instrument Company (Lafayette).
For years, Plexon has been known for its CinePlex® Behavioral Research System that was developed specifically for use in conjunction with high resolution neural recording. The CineLAB System is a completely different product for a completely different researcher.
Prepared integration with Lafayette operant chambers and Bussey-Saksida Touch Screen Chambers.
At this year’s Neuroscience conference, Plexon and Lafayette have prepared an active demonstration of not only the power of the CineLAB System, but also as it would integrate into the Bussey-Saksida Touch Screen Chamber. Researchers will have a chance to observe how a mouse performs a training protocol in the touch screen chamber. When the mouse touches the correct image it is rewarded with a pellet, or when it touches the wrong image it is punished with the house light. The training protocol will be controlled by Lafayette’s ABET software. The CineLAB System will be tracking the animal and automatically detecting its center of gravity. It will also record and analyze the animal’s behavior (thigmotaxis, time spent in different parts of the chamber, times approaching and touching correct and incorrect images, and more).
A second integrated, fully functional demonstration will be available at the Lafayette booth in which Plexon’s CineLAB and PlexBright® Optogenetic Stimulation Systems have been integrated into a Lafayette operant chamber with an active reward system. Both are great demonstrations that should not be missed!
For more information, stop by the Plexon booth #1163 or email info@pexon.com.

Fibro and Fabulous™ is a blog about my life, my Fibromyalgia, and my feeling fabulous despite my condition. Come feel fabulous with me!
From time to time I come across people in my everyday life that are doing some amazing things to help Fibro sufferers. And recently I had the pleasure of chatting with just such a lady.
Her name is Jessica Collamati. She has two sons that she homeschools and she is an independent distributor of Young Living Essential oils.
As many of you know, I'm a BIG fan of integrating alternative therapies with regular therapy when it comes to daily pain management. Essential oils are a big part of therapy for me. I use them in a variety of ways from aroma and massage therapy to cooking and bathing.
Jessica's essential oils are no different, Young Living started in 1993 as an organic herb farm and and distillery and soon became the largest, most technologically advanced distillery for the production of essential oils in North America.
This is a mental health post for all of you suffering. It's been hard. I understand because it is hard for me too. There are days when I didn't think I could breathe in, but I found a way to breathe out. If you suffer from depression to the point where your life consists of a lot of bed rest and not much else, please understand that I have been there for a good amount of my own adult life.
There are days when I have done nothing but binge watch a favorite show from the past. I tend to binge watch "The Rifleman" because I miss watching it with Grandma. I also binge watch "Star Trek" because Dad and I used to watch it when I was growing up. Other favorites are the X-Files, Criminal Minds, Expedition Unknown, and Bar Rescue because my kids and husband love those.
Cencorship, Paypal, Smashwords... OH MY!!

OK, I think we have all been occupied with other things over the festive period, but just to reassure you that I am back and mean business, here is an interactive idea for you… its a quick spot the difference…. bonus points for the first correct entry to identify both candidates… BizTsar egh!
The one on the left is my great-grandfather Nick. The second, some would say. The chap in white, well, I just have to get my ouija board and quickly ask the granny Anastasia. She might know better.
It’s Nicholas II of Russia (left) and I looked up the name of the other one, so it’s not fair to tell it now and I’ll keep silence about him.
Tsar Nicholas II of Russia and King George V of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and of the British Dominions beyond the Seas Emperor of India.

That week the woman called up a silversmith and made an appointment to watch him at work. She didn’t mention anything about the reason for her interest in silver beyond her curiosity about the process of refining silver. As she watched the silversmith, he held a piece of silver over the fire and let it heat up. He explained that in refining silver, one needed to hold the silver in the middle of the fire where the flames were hottest in order to to burn away all the impurities.
Jesus Christ is continually refining us so that we will reflect His image.
Thank you for sharing this truth!
Let me be as gold and precious silver.
Let me be as gold, pure gold.
Cleanse me from my sin, deep within.
Great word! Thanks. Love you.

Rouge Park offers trails that are pretty much as rural as you can get within Toronto. This Park will make you feel like you are somewhere far away. Make sure to wear good hiking shoes for trails that could bring you on unpaved path and submerge yourself in a forest full of colours.
Not only will you be able to see lots of maple trees in this park but you will get to enjoy the huge outdoor space this park offers. Afterall, this is the largest city park in Toronto. Play sports in the large field, have a picnic or enjoy some quiet time by the creek, the choice is yours and yours only.
Sunnybrook Park has gorgeous winding road lined with fall foilage. The park trail is paved and non-sloped. It has plenty of space for picnic and sports, it is also where Sunnybrook Stables is located, bonus for horse lovers.
G Ross Lord Park often gets overlook as a park to visit due to the size and relatively difficult to find the parking lot. The paved winding trails in the park has slight up and down hill parts with trees lining on both side. This park is one of the few parks in Toronto that makes you feel like you are not in Toronto yet it helps to zoom out for the better positives which we all need.
High Park is well-known for its cherry blossoms in the spring, but no one would argue how beautiful High Park in the Fall. High Park has a variety of towering trees throughout the park providing a diverse fall foliage.

Finding my direction, last goodbyes for a dying world.
Hiding from the whispers, the truth in a lying world.
This is your life, this is your life that I chose to leave behind.
You're lost in oceans with yourself to blame.
"This song is a reflection on the band as a whole and the personal fight to keep Buried In Verona afloat and motivated from beginning to present, it talks about the struggle of moving forward in an ever growing market saturated with similar sounds. For years we have been labelled a "metal-core" band and for the most part that was correct, but as people and musicians we felt being held to that title is holding us back from where we wanted to be, from where each persons own dream of success is and where we want the band to go.
Forget What You Know is a title that speaks for itself, many people have their opinions formed on BIV and are very concrete that we are just a metal band, to us that's wrong. We have no intention of falling into the pool of mediocore bands all playing the same style and getting nowhere with it. This song is a reflection on the whole album, it's lyrically like our anthem for "Notorious", the first 2 lines of the chorus explain that. "So here we go, we're on a mission to find ourselves". To us, that signifies change, a maturity bands only find when each member is on the same page and on our new record, we are. We know where we want to go and we are aiming for it. We want to break the "habit" that is the opinion on what type of band we are, we don't play metal, we play music."

Will we once again hold off the challenge from Scotland’s second best side Aberdeen?
Will we put up a better show in Europe?
Most importantly of all who will finish where in the world famous Celtic Underground Top 10 for 2017/18?
Voting is now open with votes to be cast right up until just before my birthday. You have until midnight on Saturday 7th July (my birthday is just a few days after that and I’ll take cheques) to vote for your Celtic Underground Top Ten and also the Samaras moment of last season.
For those not familiar with the Top Ten (where have you been these last 13 seasons) we ask fans to rate their players from 1 – 10 from the season just past with number one being our star man and usually the guy to be utter mince in the next season. Last year we also introduced a new award – The Samaras Award for that breathtaking, unforgettable special moment of the season. Our nominations included Lustig’s 5th at Ibrox but it was the Rogic winner against the Dons that clinched it. This season there are other Samaras Award moments including Lustig wearing the Police Hat, the Dembele Penalty against Them at Hampden, McGregor’s goal against Bayern and “What’s the goalie Daein Tom” commentary among many – but you decide.

Issues in this area are not simple by any means.

Dakar Rally champion Sam Sunderland has confirmed he sustained no fractures in the incident that ruled him out of the 2018 event.
Leading the race after the first three stages, Sunderland was looking strong on stage four before a crash between the third and fourth checkpoints on the special stage saw him ruled out of action.
While he initially got back on his factory KTM, he went on to experience severe back pain and lost feeling in his legs, leading to him pulling over. He was evacuated from the stage by helicopter and taken to the medical tent at the bivouac before being transferred to hospital in Lima, where it has now been confirmed he sustained two squashed discs in the incident.
With Sunderland out, Yamaha’s Adrien van Beveren leads the way after victory on stage four. He’s just two minutes ahead of Husqvarna’s Pablo Quintanilla with Honda’s kevin Benavides in third. The leading KTM is now Matthias Walker, 5 minutes back in fourth place.

With that being said, I recently started a new chapter in my career, adding agency work to the mix.

Sound Physicians:What's it like to work here?
Do you want to be notified about new reviews for Sound Physicians via e-mail?
Work as a hospitalist. Good teamwork.
ID: SkJgWVN9ew== Your Company? Want to respond to this review?
Being a clinical Performance Nurse was challenging, rewarding and I learned a lot in my short period of time.
Overall, I wouldn’t change anything. The issues were issues on employees level, not anything the company was directly involved.
They cared about work life balance, and really were true to there vision and goals.
Physician sometimes weren’t on board, even though they signed contracts to be apart of the organization. That was difficult hurdle.
ID: SkNoUV13dw== Your Company? Want to respond to this review?
I think allowing promotions for people that work remotely should be considered. Also, more training and resources for all departments.
I have several doctors that I work with that call me to thank me for making a difference in their lives on a fairly regular basis. Making an impact is the best!
There is a lot of inconsistences in management and policy/procedure. The culture is also starting to devolve and working in the office is a huge deterrent now.

To truly enjoy a camping trip, it's essential that you get a good night's sleep to awake invigorated for the day ahead. Therefore, it's crucial that you have a good quality sleeping bag. There are many types available and choosing the right one for you is very much dependent on your sleeping habits, what kind of material you like to have next to your skin, the temperature and climate of where you're camping and whether you'll be carrying the bag on your back, in a car or, perhaps, transporting by canoe.
Sleeping bags come in two basic shapes - rectangular and mummy. The best choice for you depends on your sleeping style and how you intend to use the bag. Those who tend to sleep in a curled-up 'fetal' position might be best suited to a mummy bag whilst those who like to sleep with their arms and legs sprawled out might prefer a rectangular bag.
For those who do a lot of wilderness camping, they tend to prefer the mummy bag as the narrow cut can decrease a bag's weight by up to half a pound, which is critical to backpackers who measure every ounce. The mummy's smaller size also requires less energy to heat up at night than the rectangular variety which has more air space. Whilst the rectangular bags end around the shoulder mark, the mummy bag has a hood that can be pulled tight around the camper's head, creating extra warmth and insulation.
Whilst it is possible to buy double sleeping bags, it's also possible to create a 'double' sleeping bag as most rectangular ones can be zipped together. To zip two mummy bags together, one must have a left zip and the other must have a right. Most of the longer mummy bags have a left zip whilst regular sized ones tend to have a right.
A sleeping bag acts as an insulator to slow the loss of body warmth. How well a bag is insulated depends on the material it is made out of and how it is constructed. Unless you plan to buy several sleeping bags, you should choose one with a temperature rating based on the climate conditions you plan to camp in most often. A bag's temperature rating indicates the lowest temperature at which a camper would be comfortable. However, there is no industry standard and these ratings vary between manufacturers.
When looking at the temperature ratings, it's usually assumed you are going to be using the sleeping bag with a ground pad or air bed or some other kind of protection upon which you lie.
When choosing the right insulation for your bag, however, it's important to factor in not only the climate in which you'll be camping but also the activities you're doing during your trip which can affect your metabolic rate, levels of fatigue and hunger and the quality of your tent and ground pad or air bed, which all affect your sleeping comfort. Some people feel the cold more than others too, so it may be that they prefer a warmer bag.
Sleeping bags are filled with either goose or duck down or with synthetic fibres. Down is the best natural insulator known. It's light and easily compressed so it can pack small and it can be fluffed back into shape easily. Down filled bags tend to cost more than synthetic filled bags but if they become wet, they lose a large amount of their insulating capabilities and take longer to dry out but a well-cared for down bag will last for several years. Synthetic bags cost less than down and continue to insulate when wet and they dry more quickly. However, they weigh more, tend to take up more space in your rucksack and have a shorter life span.
Most bags come with either a nylon or polyester lining. You can also add a fleece liner which can add extra softness and gives you an extra 15 to 20 degrees of warmth. Liners are mostly bought as they keep the sleeping bags cleaner but, depending on the fabric, they also provide extra insulation, remove the need for blankets and top sheets and are helpful if your bag causes allergies or you don't feel quite as comfortable with the sleeping bag material close to your skin.
It's also possible to buy combined sleeping bags which come with an airbed and pillow already attached.
Choosing a sleeping bag for a child is determined in much the same way as it would be for an adult. The important thing to bear in mind is that if you put a child in an adult sleeping bag, the spare space means that the heat will escape from the bag more quickly and they may end up being cold, so it should be a size that fits snugly, just as with an adult bag. There are, however, 'modular bags' which come with zip extensions enabling the bag to grow with your child so that you don't have to buy a new one each camping season. Mummy bags are often better for children as they tend to keep them warmer but an additional woollen or fleece hat might be a useful accessory if you plan on camping in colder climates.
The crucial thing here is to keep your bag dry. It's always a good idea to pack a large plastic bag into which you can stuff your sleeping bag if there's wet weather around. After a trip, it's important to dry your bag thoroughly before packing it away. It should be hung in a dry room and away from mildew or dampness.
You can usually wash both a down bag and a synthetic one in a conventional washing machine (if you have one large enough) on a gentle cycle using warm water and a mild detergent. Alternatively, you can take it to a launderette and some specialise in down garment care. You should leave the bag to dry on a washing line or you can use a tumble dryer set below 140F.
Whatever sleeping bag you choose, make sure it's the right choice for you and with, good care, it will last you for several years and make your camping trips even more enjoyable.
@Dawn. You'd be better to contact Wynnster directly to find out the specification of this sleeping bag.
HI I have a Wynnster Elite 400 sleeping bag I need to know what season it is can you help please. I am going to climb Mount Kilimanjaro & don't want to be too cold. Your help would be much appreciated.
There are very good lightweight sleeping bags these days – it doesn’t have to be bulky to keep you warm. That’s a boon when it comes to packing and carrying the thing. You’ll still usually roll it and attach to your pack, but it’s less weight and size to haul around with you.
It's also a good idea to air your sleeping bag properly at the beginning of camping season. This also gives you a chance to check and see if there's any mould in it (rare, but it has happened) and look for any possible rips or loose seams. Similarly, you should always check the bag before putting it away for the winter - if you need to replace it there are always good sales in the cold weather.

TELEMETRY uses radio signals to send information over air, allowing the transmission of digital, analogue, pulse, and serial data, over any distance.
Telemetry provides a practical alternative to the expensive and inefficient laying or replacing of cables, according to JOCOM Telemetry .
A reliable and effective method of switching electrical components and monitoring analogue or pulse signals, telemetry has real practical and economical benefits over long distances and on mobile or moving equipment.
There is an endless array of applications and industries where telemetry can be of benefit.
Not only is installation simple and inexpensive (no excavation or cable costs), it is also much faster resulting in less 'down time'.
* Allow remote area control and monitoring.

A challenge for any photographer is to create images that capture the relationships and moments that make peoples lives so special.Every person has a different story and their own unique aura about them. Being able to sit down, listen and discover new things about people is such a joy.We are very fortunate to meet so many different people at Viva Photography Balcatta. Over time we have come to learn that families and relationships come in all shapes and sizes. Whilst you dont get to choose your family, sometimes you do get to create your own family from those you surround yourself with.The special people who come in to our lives (sometimes only for a small amount of time) become an integral part of who you are. Opening your heart to adopting animals and giving them a home is a generous act that rewards these newly created families with unconditional love.

Choosing a telescope is like buying a car or a computer: You’ll get the best results by doing a little research first. Telescope reviews and advertisements may be found in the two major American magazines for amateur astronomers, Sky & Telescope and Astronomy. We recommend that you "test drive" a few telescopes by going to a public observing session in your region; check with your local amateur astronomy club.
