TOPIC: Here it is again! Deer season!
I have been out scouting, and have an idea about which area in my patches to get some of them brown 'sang grazers.... And am planning to go this Friday! Maybe sat as well!
Good luck to you! Its my favorite time of year.
A view from my stand last night......Good luck all!
Wow, apple trees with a clear shot. Priceless!!
Nice kill, looks like a clean shot!
I have been out a couple of times, however had no luck yet. I have seen deer three times , however they were out of bow shot, and it's bow season here.
Way to go hobbler... nice young buck !
Our Juvenile season opens this weekend... and I will be taking my son (he is 13 now).
My favorite part is those inside tenderloins... fried up or grilled... yummy.
I took my son Cole to the hot spot... right out our back door, walk down to the end of the point and you have a good view of the end of a center point and two hollows and hillsides. Lots of deer traffic in that area.
He kills one there just about every year on opening day of Juvenile season.
Just after daylight a nice young buck walked right up on us (10 yards).. it was still quite dark and Cole could not see him in his scope. He finally spooked and ran off... looked like a 4 or 6 pointer.
Then about 8:30 7 more came by... 2 does, 4 little ones and one young buck... but they were about 100 yards away and we could just see them every now and then as they cam thru small clearings... Cole did not get a shot.
He was a little frustrated at that point.... but then about 15 minutes later here come one walking right towards us... it was a young nubby buck, probably weighed 70-80 lbs. He stopped looking right at us at about 25 yards and old Cole put the hurt on him. Busted that heart... he ran about 20 yards and piled up within sight of us.
This one will be some good eating for sure. Nice and tender.
Nice. Darn good shootin'! Is this with a rifle?

I am freaking out, is that normal for the newbies? Maybe it’s just me. I usually freak out when faced with something new that I somehow believe will be exciting and outstanding that I hope will blossom into something great.
I started this blog mainly as a platform on which I could speak out on just about anything regarding the life of a young Christian while sharing my passion for faith in God, spirituality, belief in Christ Jesus, His awesome saving power… and then some; I guess from time to time I’ll include my own insane ramblings.

Every Sunday we join together in the reading of a Psalm, and yet it is quite rare for us to have a sermon about the Psalm for today. This morning we have joined together in the very first of the 150 Psalms in the Bible, and I thought it worthwhile to stop and reflect on the Psalms, and in particular on this Psalm.
The Book of Psalms might be the easiest book to find in the Bible. It is the longest book, it is right in the centre of our Bibles, and it also includes both the longest and the shortest chapters in the Bible.
As we heard, the Psalm tells us about two people: one is godly, and the other is ungodly. One seeks to please God, while the other seeks to do his own thing, and has no concern for the will of God.
Let’s see firstly what the Psalm tells us about the godly person.
The godly person, we are told, does not do what the wicked say, doesn’t do what the wicked do, and does not share the outlook of the wicked.
That is all rather negative, but there is another side. Where do the godly person’s principles come from? We are told: his delight is in the law of the Lord, the Lord’s teaching or instruction. He meditates on it, he thinks about it, he ponders and considers its message day and night.
This is a person who listens to the reading of scripture, gets to know it, and deliberately holds it in his or her heart. This is someone who has purposefully got to know the scriptures; who really seeks to find in them guidance for life, and really seeks to live in obedience to its teaching. He probably couldn’t read himself, but he took every opportunity to listen, and to get to know the message of God.
The Psalm tells us that this person is like a tree planted by streams of water: it is secure, fruitful, and fulfils its purpose. This is someone who may not be wealthy or powerful or popular, but is truly a success as God’s servant, and thus ultimately as a human being.
Now let’s remember that people in those days didn’t have a Bible on the bookshelf; they didn’t have a selection of translations or commentaries or resources to help them understand the Bible; they didn’t have a computer or an Ipad with all their resources. Compared with this person, it is easy for us to read and get understanding about the Bible.
And the scriptures we have tell us not only the stories of Moses and the details of the Law given at Mount Sinai: the Torah, as Jewish people still know it today. Nor is it just the rest of the Old Testament, those books which tell us the story of Israel and message of the Prophets. But we also have the story of Jesus: his life and ministry, his death and resurrection, his message and his claims. And we have in the New Testament the message and the significance of Jesus: the forgiveness and hope we have through him, and the call to live as his followers. All the more reason to take up the message of the Psalmist: to read and reflect on the scriptures day by day, and to allow them to have their impact on our lives.
When I was growing up as a young Christian, the Quiet Time was regarded as a healthy pattern for the Christian life. The Quiet Time was a time set aside each day for Bible reading and prayer. You don’t hear the term often nowadays, and that in itself isn’t so important.
But for so many Christians the pattern has been lost. Yes, some people turned it into a rigid rule: perhaps for themselves, perhaps for others. No doubt for many people it became something of an empty routine. For many people, the patterns of life changed, and this part of the daily pattern didn’t fit in. And no doubt too often, other less important things got in the way!
But the Psalmist wants us to see the value for us of regular purposeful reading and reflection on God’s written word. Of course, as the Psalm tells us, it is not enough to read the scriptures, to admire or appreciate the scriptures, or even to love them: we must also live them out. What we learn from scripture, we must put into practice.
Now of course, people have many question marks about the Bible. In what sense is it God’s written word? Do we need to take it all literally? Does everything in it apply in the same way nowadays? When people have different understandings, how do we work out the right one?
I don’t have neat answers to all those questions. People do have different understandings of the authority of scripture. Christians have different understandings about the story of creation or the reality of miracles or what is history and what is a story. They differ about the Bible’s teaching about sexuality, and the place of women in the church and in the family. And there are plenty of other controversies.
Nevertheless this is what God has given us to find the truth about God and about Jesus and about the way God wants us to live. Without it we make up our own account of faith and our own version of God. We need to take the scriptures very seriously, even if we do have our questions and uncertainties. We are not to blithely dismiss the Bible when it doesn’t say what we would like it to say, or when it doesn’t provide the answers we would like from it. Yes, we may have to work at it, sometimes wrestle with it, but we need to see it as God’s unique provision for our spiritual enlightenment, and to take seriously its very real authority. This is the way to blessing, as the Psalm tells us. And of course if we want some guidance and help in reading the Bible day by day, there are a range of resources available: from devotional books to the Bible Reading Fellowship daily notes.
But the Psalmist points out that there is a second way to live: the way of the wicked, the ungodly – the one who scoffs at God’s laws, the one who just ignores them. How common this attitude is nowadays in this society in which we are regularly told that we are free to have what we want, to do whatever we want; a society which says that a God who puts restrictions on our behavior is unreasonable or out-of-date.
God’s principles are not out-of-date, of course, but people always want to justify their unjustifiable behaviour.
The Psalmist tells us that the ungodly are not like those fruitful trees planted by water: they are like chaff. When the grain was harvested in those days, it was tossed in the air in an open place. The real grain was heavy enough to come straight back down, but the chaff was so light and insubstantial that it was blown away by the wind. There was no substance, no value. So we are told that the wicked person who ignores and disobeys God’s word has lost the plot: this person has no value for God’s service. In fact people like this have failed – even if people around them think they are doing really well.
The Psalmist insists that there will be a judgement, a sorting out, and the wicked will not stand on that day; they will not have a place amongst God’s people.
So we come back to these two ways to live: the godly, watched over and valued and cared for by the Lord, and the ungodly, whose way is empty and valueless, and ultimately hopeless.
We all have to decide which way we are going to live. In Christian terms, the question is: will we trust and follow Jesus, will we seek to live in the light of the message of the scriptures, or will we say no to him? That may seem different from the black or white, good or bad behaviour described by the Psalmist, but it is not. Ultimately all scripture points us to Jesus Christ, and invites us to live as his followers.
Do we seek God’s ultimate blessing? Let us be people who keep reading the scriptures, reflecting on the scriptures’ message, and putting into practice the teaching of the scriptures. Amen.
“The Letter of James is an epistle of straw”. This was the view of Martin Luther, who would have been quite happy for the Letter of James to be removed from the New Testament.
Why was Luther so unimpressed by this letter from which we are reading over five Sundays? Firstly, he did not regard it as apostolic: he believed that it wasn’t written by either of the two apostles named James, whose authority was unique. Luther was almost certainly right. Far more likely is that it was written by James, the brother of the Lord, who became a greatly respected church leader in Jerusalem. James was conservative in his approach to the Christian faith, and did not want to see it move too far from its Jewish roots. Nevertheless, Acts tells us that he came to see the importance of Paul’s more radical approach, even if he perhaps thought it less relevant for the Jewish Christians around Judea.
But Luther’s big criticism of James’ letter was that it did not clearly teach the Gospel of grace, particularly as taught in Paul’s Letters. The message that we are saved by God’s grace, through faith in Jesus, was at the heart of Luther’s teaching, and he felt that James did not make this clear.
His study of the Letters of Paul, and his observations of the workings of the Roman Catholic Church had led him to the conclusion that the church itself was not only corrupt, but that it had departed from the message of the scriptures. The message which seemed to come from the church was that you might be saved if you are a good Catholic who obeys the church’s commandments and fits in with its teaching. It emphasized the idea of purgatory as a means by which we are cleansed from our sins, and that generosity to the church could reduce our time in purgatory.
As Luther studied the writings of Paul he saw how different this was from the scriptural emphasis: he started asking questions, and found himself condemned for asking those questions. And out of this came the Reformation, with not only its theological dimensions, but also political and nationalistic dimensions as princes saw a way to release themselves from the power of the church.
The question is: was Luther right in his criticism of the Letter of James? Is it an epistle of straw? I don’t believe so. James is addressing different issues from many of those that Paul is addressing in his letters, and if we get the point that James is making, it will actually help us to better appreciate what Paul is saying, and what the Gospel is all about.
The Christian message is not about how good we can be, but about how good God has been to us. We all fall short of what we should be. We are all in need of God’s mercy and forgiveness. We can’t earn a place in God’s perfect kingdom. But God in his love has opened the way to us through the death of Jesus on the cross for our sakes. We are saved on the basis of God’s kindness and mercy which we don’t deserve: that’s grace. We receive that blessing through faith: trusting in Jesus, placing ourselves in his hands, depending on his love.
But faith means different things to different people. How does it work? What does it really involve? And if our salvation is based on faith rather than good deeds, is there any point is trying to live a good life, or doing kind deeds? This was a very serious question in the life of the early church.
In fact, Paul himself got very uptight when people claimed that because we were saved by faith in God’s grace, we could sin as much as we like: after all it would give God all the more opportunity to exercise his love and forgiveness! Paul insisted that faith must be expressed in godly living, and it must express itself in love. And in fact, that is what James says in his letter.
When James considers the question of whether we are saved by faith, his question is: what sort of faith? What makes faith real faith? And in fact he clears up three mistakes, three distortions of what faith is all about.
Which is the way God would have us respond, if we are in a position to give real help? Is it the good advice or the kindly wish or the promise to pray? James’ response is that none of them is a truly loving response. He would also say that none of them is a response which expresses Christian faith. Genuine love means acts of love. Genuine faith means acts of faith.
To James, faith is not just a matter of words. You can say as much as you like, you can sound very pious, you can use the right jargon, you can speak words which sound nice and religious and warm. But if it is no more than words, it’s not real faith at all.
For if our faith is Jesus is real, we will seek to live as his followers. If we truly trust in him, we will seek to put into practice what he says, we will seek to obey his message. Faith is not just a matter of saying the right words.
In a sense James is echoing the words of Jesus that we are the light of the world. If that is true of us, our light ought to be shining. Our lives ought to express the reality of our faith. Faith and love, faith and obedience are inextricably linked. If love is missing, if obedience to God’s will is missing, the implication is that there is no faith either. Faith is not an alternative to good works. Our godly loving lives ought to express the reality of our faith.
The other thing that James brings out is that faith is not just a matter of sound doctrine. Most Australians still say they believe in God. But do they live as if they believed in God? People sometimes tell me that they believe in God almost as if they were doing him a favour by believing that he exists. But God won’t go out of existence if no one believes in him!
We can go through every item of the creed and tick all the boxes, and still not have true Christian faith. We can be experts on Christian doctrine, and be thoroughly orthodox in our teaching, and still not have true Christian faith. James comments that even demons believe in God: they’re so conservative in their doctrine that they even believe in the devil! But their belief in the existence of God is certainly not true Christian faith. It simply makes them terrified of God’s judgement, and rightly so! But at least, they react in some way to their belief.
It is important to believe the truth about God, to listen to the right message. But we must actively respond to the truth about God, and the truth of the Gospel. Sound doctrine is not the same as genuine faith.
Well, you can see where James is taking us. He wants us to see the difference between true faith and fake faith, between real faith and faith that is merely theoretical. And his message is that all the nice words and sound doctrine in the world mean nothing if our faith does not affect our lives. Real faith is faith that is lived out.
And to drive home the point he presents us with two examples of real faith. He reminds us of Abraham the father of the Jewish people and his preparedness to sacrifice his only son Isaac: it made no sense to him, but God had asked him to do it. This was faith taken to the extreme, but Abraham acted in faith. And then there is Rahab, the pagan prostitute of Jericho. She probably knew very little about the God of Israel, but she saw that she needed to be on his side, and so she took the risk of helping the Israelite spies. Once again she acted in faith.
And so I must ask myself the same questions James asks us all. Is my faith the real thing? What is the evidence? My clerical collar? My ordination, or even my baptism certificate? My doctrine?
No: the evidence must be seen in my life: my devotion to Christ, my service to his people, my active love for my neighbour, my godly way of living. Faith without the life of faith is not real Christian faith at all.
Of course we will continue to fall short, we will not always be as godly or as loving as we should be. That is why we continue to need God’s grace and forgiveness, and why we need to keep trusting in Christ.
We are saved by God’s amazing grace. We open up to that grace by trusting in Christ. But our faith must be the real thing. Let’s keep living the life of faith. Let’s keep putting our faith into practice day by day. Amen.
Many of you will remember George Orwell’s book “Animal Farm”, a satire of Communism with animals taking over a farm from its drunken human owner. The belief that all animals are equal is fundamental to the way the farm now works, but quickly the pigs assume leadership. Before long, their motto has changed. Now the fundamental message is: “All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.” And the farm becomes more and more a dictatorship, just as communism, supposedly the people’s revolution, became under Stalin a brutal dictatorship.
Could it be that in the world today, and even in the church, some people are more equal than others?
Scripture tells us that every human being is made in the image of God: we are all precious and significant. Even though we are guilty of sin, God’s image is still in us, and we still matter: we matter to him, and we should matter to each other. And though we all share our humanity, we are all different in so many ways.
We have our different racial backgrounds, our cultural and religious differences, our different personalities and interests, our different strengths and weaknesses, our different stories and experiences, our different achievements and failures.
And just as we see the colour and variety within the world around us, so we see the variety of people within the human race. I believe God rejoices in that variety: mass production where we are all identical is not his way! We are not all the same, but we are all neighbours. That is the ultimately Jesus’ point in the parable of Good Samaritan: there is no one of whom we can say “that person is not my neighbour”. There is no one whom we can exclude from God’s call to love our neighbour as ourselves.
The problem is that we are finite human beings. Physically we only have contact with a limited number of people. And even in today’s world of sophisticated communication, we still can only in any real way touch the lives of a limited number of people. Furthermore, we only have a limited range of energy and resources and time to act in love to people.
In the end we all will have priorities in the ways we show love and the people to whom we show that love. And that is right.
I have responsibilities to Sarah as my wife that I have to no one else: if I failed to fulfil those responsibilities because I was so busy doing good to everyone else, I would be in the wrong. I have various responsibilities to people: my family, the patients and staff and volunteers at hospital, my church family, various other people to whom I am linked in different ways. That might not be a complete list, but it indicates that I need to have priorities.
And that is one of the challenges of the Christian life, indeed of any truly human life. How do we handle the needs of others and the responsibilities I have, and still reach out to people with the love of God, without overloading myself so much that I do a poor job in all these areas? We are all aware of business people and professionals who are so involved with their work that they neglect their spouse and their family. We are aware of multi-millionaires who seem to have lots of money to splash out on indulgences, but nothing to give to those in need or to put toward good causes.
And we ourselves might feel guilty because we spend money on holidays or take time off or buy ourselves something we don’t really need. We do things for ourselves. Isn’t that selfish rather than loving? Or do we need to see that a balanced human life involves relaxation and pleasure, as well as work and service?
I don’t have answers to all these questions. They are genuine issues for me as they are for many Christians. There are no neat and tidy answers because we are all different, and our circumstances and responsibilities and resources and our opportunities are all different. What is clear is that we must appreciate the good things we are given by God – and living here in Australia, we are truly blessed – but that we also must seek to be people who love our neighbour and do what we can for those who need our help.
These issues are raised for us by two of our readings today: the words from the Letter of James, and our reading from the Gospel of Mark. We can’t physically show love to everyone: how do we decide? How do we set priorities?
James tells us about a stranger who arrives at church in dirty clothes, no doubt smelly and unkempt. What do we do? What’s he doing here?
He’s going to make it unpleasant for all the nice people who are members of our lovely church! And so he is pushed into a back corner, as far away as possible.
However when a well-dressed wealthy nice-looking person arrives, it is tempting to fuss over him and give him special attention, which by comparison with the other man is hardly needed.
Of course, this is snobbery. What James is saying it that we mustn’t show favouritism. We are to show respect and courtesy and love to all people, whoever they are. And if we, or some amongst us, are able to assist this person in some practical way, that is what James also calls us to do.
Yes, of course if we have invited guests, we give them due consideration. There may be places set aside for them: that is a reasonable thing to do. But all people matter to God, and they are to matter to us. And love is not only about what we do for people, but the way we relate to them. These two people may be treated lovingly in different ways, but one is not more equal than the other, nor more important, nor more worthy of our love.
If we have faith in Jesus who uniquely brings us the love of God, we are to act in love towards anyone in need, as we have the opportunity, just as he has acted in love for us in our spiritual need. James reminds us that Christian faith, if it is not expressed in loving treatment of people, especially people in need, is a dead thing.
But then we heard that unexpected story of Jesus and the woman from Tyre, north-west of Israel. Jesus had gone there to get away from the crowds: he needed spiritual and personal refreshment – appropriate priorities – and no doubt he also wanted time to focus on teaching and instructing his disciples.
Somehow this woman – a Gentile, not a Jew – hears that Jesus is in town and starts to hassle him. Her daughter is ill, perhaps with an extreme psychological disturbance, perhaps with some spiritual possession as was understood in those days.
She begs Jesus to cast the evil spirit out of her daughter, and Matthew’s account of this story makes clear that the disciples wanted Jesus to send her away, and that Jesus himself was not quickly forthcoming. Then he makes the sort of statement that seems extraordinary coming from the lips of Jesus. “I have been sent to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” There’s Jesus’ priority as a human being in God’s service.
But then comes what seems quite an offensive statement from Jesus. “It is not fair to take the children’s food and feed it to the dogs.” Jesus is saying that the people of Israel are like the children of God’s household, but this Gentile woman is like a dog under the table: trying to grab anything which falls, even if it has accidentally been dropped there.
And we need to keep in mind that people in those days didn’t keep dogs as loved family pets: they were scavengers, which had no home in people’s houses. Jesus is clearly telling this woman that she has no claim on him and his divine power.
She might well be familiar with the negative opinion of Jews towards Gentiles, and her opinion of Jews was possibly not much different. Perhaps Jesus had a friendly or encouraging smile on his face as he said this: maybe he was simply testing out how strong her faith was. But she comes straight back with a reminder that the dogs under the table do at least get some of the crumbs dropped by the children. She is saying: “Yes I’m not claiming that I have any right to your help, but perhaps you will help me anyway.” And that answer is the key: Jesus acknowledges the woman’s desperation and determination and faith, and he heals the girl.
But Jesus did have priorities. Not everyone in Galilee and Judah was healed when he was around. He had the power to heal and perform miracles, but his priority was to point people to the Kingdom of God, and to teach people what it meant to be a member of that kingdom. Priorities were real for Jesus.
As human beings in our different circumstances we have different priorities, different responsibilities and different opportunities. We are not able to do all that we might want to do: perhaps not even all that we believe that we ought to do. But we can always seek to live as people of love and generosity, people who welcome and care, recognizing that our neighbours will sometimes be our kind of people, and sometimes people who are much more difficult to love.
Let us take our priorities seriously, our ongoing responsibilities of love and care and service to those to whom we are closely connected. But let us also be ready to take the opportunities to show love to the unexpected person who crosses our path.
Jesus remains our example, and we will need to seek his wisdom as we make our decisions. We can’t do everything – and that’s OK. But Jesus is also our Saviour, and he forgives us when we get it wrong.
All people matter. Anyone can be our neighbour. As we have opportunity, let us then be ready to show love to our neighbour, whoever he or she might be. Amen.

Some of you may know that I am (slowly) building up a '37 UL BTSV or big twin side valve. I've always referred to it as a flathead. Probably has a lot to do with what I have heard, and, all the flathead Fords I've been around. Probably an unofficial name either way.
Does anyone know who this gentleman is, and where he might be contacted? Some of the pics are missing which definitely adds a little challenge.
well, i ran a whois search and it is privatized, but the domain is still active till 2021.
the site was put up in 1995 so the article could be very old.
perhaps if you joined, he would answer, couple of link with his picture.

ABU DHABI, Sept 9, (KUNA): UAE’s Department of Culture and Tourism announced on Saturday the discovery of the oldest mosque in the city of Al-Ain, east of the capital Abu Dhabi, adding that archaeologists in the department have studied the discovery dating back more than 1,000 years. Archaeologists from the Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi (DCT Abu Dhabi) are continuing to make spectacular discoveries that shed new light on the history of the UAE at the dawn of Islam.
This was a period of time, which ushered in a wave of change across the UAE. The new religion brought with it a set of values and beliefs that have since defined the history of the country. Close to the construction site of the Sheikh Khalifa mosque in Al-Ain, DCT Abu Dhabi archaeologists discovered several falaj (irrigation waterways), at least three buildings and, more significantly, a mosque which dates back to Islam’s Early Golden Age of the Abbasid Caliphate, 1,000 years ago.
The mosque is the earliest yet discovered in the UAE. According to the Emirates News Agency (WAM), Mohamed Khalifa Al-Mubarak, Chairman of DCT Abu Dhabi, said: “The new findings at the Al-Ain archaeological sites prove the richness of the region’s history, which allows us to expand our knowledge of ages long past.” “The discovery of a mosque from the Abbasid period in Al-Ain demonstrates the deeply-rooted influences of Islam in the region, despite the immense distance from where Islam first emerged and at a time when modes of transportation were quite rudimentary.
Experts have revealed that the buildings at the site, made from mudbrick, are the remains of a small fortress and several other structures. People living in these buildings would have obtained fresh water from several falaj that they constructed around the settlement. Falaj technology has a deep history in Al-Ain stretching back 3,000 years.
In the early Islamic period, the people of Al-Ain improved the existing technology by using fi red bricks to ensure the stability and durability of the underwater channels. When excavated these falaj were still intact. But the archaeologists believe it is the discovery and excavation of a mudbrick mosque that places Al-Ain on the global map as an important center during the early Islamic period. Experts were alerted to the fact that it is a mosque by the presence of a mihrab (a niche in the wall of the mosque, at the point nearest to Makkah) on the interior room and on the exterior. Thus the faithful would have prayed inside and outside the mosque, just as they do today.
Fragments of pots, which were likely used for ablution (ceremonial washing) and other ritual purposes, were found inside the mosque and date from the ninth to the 10th Centuries CE. These discoveries and a radiocarbon date from one of the nearby falaj confi rm that the mosque is the earliest yet discovered in the UAE. Experts believe that this simple mosque indicates the popularity and crucial position of Islam in the UAE in the centuries following the Prophet Mohammed (PBUH). Along with groves of date palms supported by the falaj, Al-Ain in the early Islamic period was already in a form that would be recognizable today.
Archaeologists also believe the fi nds from the mosque point to another important feature of early Islamic society – which the spread of Islam opened up trade and ushered in a new global age of commerce. In addition to imported ceramics from the rest of the Gulf, several fragments of Dusun ceramics were discovered in the mosque and adjacent buildings.
This unique pottery was produced in the Guangdong province of south China and was traded across East Asia and the Middle East. That Arab merchants and sailors ventured far from their homes to trade for these goods, is now indicated by the discovery of an Arabian dhow shipwreck off the coast of Indonesia. DCT experts do not know if people in Al-Ain travelled that far, but the discoveries indicate that the town, perhaps known then as Tawwam, was part of a vibrant global economic system.
It likely participated in the trade through one of the ports that existed on the coast at this time. DCT’s experts are continuing to research in Al-Ain and elsewhere in Abu Dhabi, in a bid to shed further light on the early centuries of Islam. Already, DCT archaeologists have investigated a Christian church that dates to this time on the island of Sir Bani Yas. This building highlights another critical feature of the early Islamic period: a tolerance and acceptance of other religions, which is still a feature of life in today’s UAE.

This week’s Spotlight interview shines on Senior Scientist Mirta Mihovilovic, PhD. Mihovilovic talks to us about the advances in neurology and university-wide changes she has seen in her more than three decades at Duke, her second-degree black belt in Shotokan Karate, and publishing her father’s novel about a family immigrating to Chile during the dawn of the early 20th century.
How long have you been at Duke? How long have you been with Duke Neurology?
I have been working at the Duke University Medical Center since September 1st 1984. My professional interests overlapped with those of Dr. Allen D. Roses, who was Chief of the division of Neurology. At that time, he gave me the opportunity to accommodate my interest on nicotinic acetyl choline receptors to ongoing work at the division’s Research Laboratory.
For the 32 years that I have been associated with Duke Neurology, I have witnessed multiple scientific breakthroughs at the division, now Department, of Neurology. The most striking, in the early 90’s, was the report that, depending on genotype, the APOE gene which codes for apolipoprotein E, a lipid carrier protein, influences the age of onset for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). It is fair to say that APOE led the way to today’s TOMMorrow study, named after the TOMM40 gene which, depending on genotype, affects the development of AD.
At work I wear two interchangeable hats: I am a Senior Scientist currently involved in Tom 40 research investigating the influence that AD-associated TOMM40 polymorphisms may have upon mitochondrial function. I work most closely with William Kirby Gottschalk, PhD as well as with Ornit Chiba-Falek and Michael Lutz. I am also the Laboratory Manager and as such I make sure that the laboratory’s day-to-day operation runs smoothly.
For the most part I translate ideas into working hypothesis and test them, making sure that experimental measurements are, to the best of my abilities, unbiased. I pay particular attention to data collection, data analyses and above all, methodological limitations, which at this time of increasing automation, if not properly understood, could be disastrous.
I spend a large part of my time at the bench and as a result I get to interact with undergraduate students. Now, close to retirement, I feel the urgency, to pass on to them the basic principles of scientific method.
How did you get interested in Biochemistry?
As a scientist, much of your work experience, deals with experimental testing and the use of both proven and new technologies. How has your scientific research experience changed since you started working at Duke? What changes do you see coming over the next decade?
At this point in time when chip technology, miniaturization and robotics are revolutionizing all aspects of our lives it will be hard to answer this question in a few sentences. Most certainly laboratory work will depend more and more in remotely controlled automation. Changes can also be unpredictable; the well-known polymerase chain reaction (PCR) comes to mind: The concept of PCR and the experimental demonstration of its feasibility were reported in the sixties but, it was only with the discovery of a thermo stable DNA polymerase in the eighties, that PCR was recognized as a mayor scientific breakthrough. Most certainly, it never crossed my mind that life close to a steaming Yellowstone vent would give us the first thermo-stable DNA polymerase and have such an influence on our daily lives.
What has changed the most about Duke since you came here?
One of the major changes obvious to me is the development of infrastructure that facilitates electronic connectivity and access to an ever increasing number of on-campus and off-campus databases, scientific and administrative sites, libraries, etc. At the same time every so often I am confronted with issues that arise from the disconnect that exist between “Duke Administration” and outsourcing companies; gone are the days when we were notified in advance of ALL interruptions of basic services that could affect the workflow of a research laboratory. Oftentimes in the quest for streamlining essential services we end up missing the most basic level of communication.
My Duke professional experience does not extend to the clinic but as a patient who has greatly benefited from the medical advances implemented at Duke (I am alive today because of them), I have also witnessed the implementation of policies that may not necessarily be in the best interest of the Duke community at large.
You’re originally from Chile. How long has it been since you’ve lived there? What do you miss most about living in that country?
Among other accomplishments, you have a second-degree black belt. What martial art did you study, and how did you get interested in this skill?
A close friend introduced me to karate. I am a member-for-life of SKA (Shotokan Karate of America), a traditional Japanese martial art non-profit organization with presence in Asia, America and Europe .The study and practice of this martial art has influenced the way I approach life; through its practice I have acquired a network of friends, a second family, if you will.
What other passions or hobbies do you have outside of the Department?
And because I am proud of my roots, in 2009 I had to become a publisher to see my father’s novel Desde Lejos Para Siempre in its English translation: From Afar Forever, the story of immigrants, making it to the Chilean Patagonia at the turn of the Twentieth Century. A dear friend, Elisabeth Jezierski, an Austrian-born Durham resident, translated this work. You can read more about the book here.
I also relax tending my plants and digging my hands into good soil. I keep at it although, more often than not, I am reminded that my neighborhood was, and still is, deer territory. I do enjoy nature and a good walk; traveling and a good book; friends and a good party.

Professor Sand presented his research on the activities of a Tokyo slumlord at the turn of the 20th century.
No phenomenon can be explained outside of its context. In his lecture, “Lessons in Slum Non- Clearance from the World’s First Megacity,” Professor Jordan Sand talks about the historical context in which Edo became Tokyo, the largest metropolitan area in the world.
Professor Sand addressed in his lecture two things that I found fascinating. One was the idea of fire as a force that shapes the city and its population. The other was the idea of materials and the flow of materials.
The buildings in Edo were destroyed by fire approximately once every 5 to 10 years. The temporality of place made investments in real estate not worthwhile. In this setting, Professor Sand brings the unique story of Osaki Tatsugoro, an illiterate builder who purchased peripheral land at the end of the 19th century and built a neighborhood called Nishimaru-cho that had approximately 300 housing units.
What I found most interesting about Osaki’s story is the lease agreement he had his tenants sign in which the tenants gave away their right to all the human waste they produced at the site so that Osaki could sell it as fertilizer. The lease agreement also states that when a tenant does not follow said agreement, Osaki is allowed to take out all the outside shutters and floor boards from the house to deter the tenant from staying.
This relates directly to a finding Professor Sand presented in the form of an image of what people from Edo took with them in the case of fire--their textiles, floor boards and movable doors.
Both of those examples, Osaki’s lease and the image of what people chose to save from fire, can teach us the importance of movable materials in historical Tokyo. When everything can be destroyed quickly, things need to be moved quickly. This, Professor Sand says, can teach us about the importance of flow. When we come to look at a city like Tokyo we should consider looking at the movement of materials, the movement of “stuff,” rather than try to investigate the space, as it might be that those are still the things that are valued in a place like Tokyo.
In The Practice of Everyday Life, Michel de Certeau writes, “There is no place that is not haunted by many different spirits hidden there in silence, spirits one can ‘invoke’ or not.” In his recent lecture on the history of the Nishimaru-cho neighborhood of Tokyo, Jordan Sand, Professor of Japanese History and Culture at Georgetown University, reminded us of the importance of history in our reading of cities. Current literature on the “megacity,” Sand argued, is disconnected from the history of cities, and the history of Tokyo offers relevant evidence of “megacity” trends, should one care to “invoke” its spirits.
In offering a detailed history of Nishimaru-cho, Sand presented a narrative of its development from the Meiji Period up until present day. Central to this narrative was the figure of Osaki Tatsugoro, an illiterate builder who purchased the peripheral land at the end of the 19th century, and built a neighborhood that the government would eventually designate as a “slum” in 1932. A historical marker stands in Nishimaru-cho today, but neglects to mention Osaki’s importance in the area’s creation. The neighborhood’s narrow roads, holdovers from Osaki’s planning, bear witness to his presence all the same.
Osaki was able to dictate his life story, and its publication serves as historical evidence of his role in the creation of Nishimaru-cho. In invoking Osaki’s story, through Osaki’s own words, and repositioning his life into the larger history of Nishimaru-cho, Sand reminds us of the important potential history offers in informing our reading of urban space. Many read Tokyo as a “megacity” today, but the history of Nishimaru-cho points to a larger scale in which to read Tokyo as such. Nishimaru-cho is but one small neighborhood in a vast metropolis, and one wonders what similar investigations into other neighborhoods could yield. If indeed, to quote de Certeau once more, “the very definition of a place… is composed by (a) series of displacements and effects among the fragmented strata that form it,” our understanding of cities may require as much digging as reading.

Mark and Gade discussed their project, Communities’ Crossing, a creative placemaking effort along San Pablo Avenue.
During Sue Mark and Anisha Gade’s presentation, it was stated that it is not possible for planners to create a sense of a place. True, it is impossible for planners to create a sense of a place from physical plans. However, it is possible to create an opportunity for a sense of a place to arise by mobilizing people and knowledge. Unfortunately, the traditional interventionist view of many planners inhibits their abilities to be catalysts for this type of change.
This line was used to describe the birth of “modern” systemic planning from the writings of Henri de Saint-Simon. It was an ingenious vision that society, through the means of several diversely-learned individuals (not known as planners until then), would be able to take control of its own destiny. From this I make a huge leap, but only to engage one’s interest and generate commentary.
The idea of changing a place to be better for everyone, to be inclusive and representative of a positive rationality, should not be restricted to the profession of planning. Greater representation of philosophers, artists, etc. in planning processes would ensure a more positive change in communities.
Last week, artist Sue Mark and urban planner/design researcher Anisha Gade gave a talk on their latest creative place-making effort in NOBE (North Oakland, Berkeley, Emeryville). They shared their thoughts on how the cultural project can effectively engage local community groups and shape their sense of identity under the context of gentrification.
Their conversation reflected on the relationships between people and the city. Urban planners and social practice designers should take these dynamic relationships especially seriously. Their project preparation starts with simply walking the streets of Oakland in order to find the boundaries of its neighborhoods. Those boundaries are often blurry and the effort of drawing definite boundaries proved to be impossible, in that the flow of the people, landscape and history are not restricted by arbitrary boundaries. But the walking exercise was a crucial part of preparing for the project because it let Sue and Anisha become fully immersed in the city. Only in this way can a person get a true sense of the city and community identity.
Later in the lecture, Sue addressed the importance of setting and format when prompting community engagement. She had originally wanted to start a discussion about Oakland in the public library. However, she later found that a walking discussion in the streets was more appealing than leading a panel discussion in a crowded dark room. So, she moved the discussion outdoors and the event turned out to be a great success with 75 people showing up to engage in a meaningful discussion while actually experiencing the city’s presence.
Although Sue and Anisha’s place-making project is primarily centered on the community, Sue acknowledged that “logic of the place will rule the work rather than the logic of the community.” But they believe that functional relationships between authority (government bodies), organizations and the community are crucial in the construction and success of the project even as they actively probe and prioritize the needs of the community. As a result, their community engagement works heavily towards promoting the wellbeing of the local people. By retrieving the personal stories and history of the community, their place-making project provides a cultural force to unify the local dwellers under the wave of gentrification. By organizing public discussion and thought-provoking activity, their project also serves an important role in transforming the community.
The tons of documents hidden in Archives with a capital “A” around the world and managed by public and private institutions are the foundations of western public history. They support the history taught in schools and shown in museums. They help to shape the idea of who we are: our collective identity. However, they have been selected to be archived for reasons that in many cases are not clear. Even more, they have been interpreted in different ways before they become public. In this process of selection and interpretation, many things are left behind, including “inconvenient silences” that could harm political and economic interests.
My call is for the creation of moments in which people can share their memories instead of places (be they real or virtual), for the preservation of the informal ways to transmit memory, and for the construction of a public history which is truly public and capable of replacing the silences in the history we have been taught with voices we have not heard yet.

The Wyoming Range reaches south from the distant Teton Mountains. Here, at the intersection of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem and gas-rich Pinedale Anticline, roughnecks are protesting a drilling proposal in beloved hunting grounds.
Under an October sky that threatens snow, a steel-gray diesel Dodge pickup lurches down a rutted two-track through the foothills of the Wyoming Range. Driver Chad Willoughby, 35, wears a ratty blaze-orange cap; a hunting rifle leans against the seat beside him. His dad, Dave Willoughby, and two friends share the back seat, dressed in camouflage. Every hunting season, the men take time off from their jobs in southwest Wyoming's oil and gas fields to hunt deer, antelope and elk in the Bridger-Teton National Forest. Now, the industry that employs them has set its sights on their hunting ground.
"This is great mule deer country," says Dave, 65, describing the Noble Basin, which drapes from the rocky ridges of the high country just to the north. Its rumpled draws are sprinkled with fading aspen and dark conifers. One skinny four-wheel-drive road snakes over a hill and out of sight. "(There are) antelope out on that ridge. Hundreds of elk in summer. We hunt bear here in the spring. That'll all go away."
He holds a stack of fliers he's been giving to hunters. They show a map of a proposed drilling plan and an aerial photo of spider-webbing roads and natural gas wells with the words "It's open season ... the Hoback-Noble Basin is under threat!" The fliers protest the proposed exploration and development of a half-dozen natural gas leases on the national forest.
Last year, Wyoming's Democratic governor and Republican senators, wilderness advocates and hunters, roughnecks and outfitters united to celebrate passage of the Wyoming Range Legacy Act, which stopped gas leasing on 1.2 million acres in these mountains. But the victory was incomplete. About 72,000 acres of the Wyoming Range, including the Noble Basin, had already been leased, and now Houston-based Plains Exploration and Production (PXP) is looking to develop its holdings.
These hunters know firsthand about gas development's environmental impacts, and they don't want to see it on their hunting and fishing grounds. They helped start an organization called Citizens for the Wyoming Range, and it and other conservation groups want PXP to relinquish its Noble Basin leases; failing that, they hope to push the Forest Service to put protective restrictions on gas development. "We have a vested interest in Wyoming and we want to keep it wild," says Bill Perkins, an electrical engineer who works in the gas fields and is a member of the advocacy group. "If we have to sacrifice somewhere, turn the Red Desert and the Jonah into pincushions."
Some 30 miles to the southeast lie two of the nation's most productive natural gas fields -- the Jonah Field and the Pinedale Anticline -- where energy development has come at a high environmental cost. Since drilling started a decade ago, mule deer and sage grouse have been disappearing, haze obscures the Wind River Mountains, spikes in ground-level ozone threaten health, carcinogens contaminate groundwater, and light and noise pollution fill the air.
Five years ago, PXP acquired leases in the Noble Basin and prepared to drill three exploratory, or wildcat, wells. The proposal coincided with a Bush administration push to lease an additional 175,000 acres in the Wyoming Range. PXP's plan did not address how full development would affect the wildlife that moves between the Noble Basin and the other gas fields. The proposal "epitomized all that was wrong with drilling in these mountains," says Stephanie Kessler of The Wilderness Society in Wyoming. "There was a huge outcry."
Locals demanded more accountability for the cumulative impacts of development. In response, the U.S. Forest Service scaled back the new leases to 44,720 acres, and PXP withdrew its wildcat proposal in 2007. Now, the company has re-submitted a more thorough master plan describing how development might proceed if the wildcat wells strike gas. In the new plan -- currently under review by the Bridger-Teton National Forest -- PXP still proposes to start with three wells from a single pad. If those wells strike gas, the full plan outlines improving and building 29 miles of road and drilling 136 wells from 17 well pads in the Noble Basin, directly disturbing up to 400 acres of land over the roughly 16,000-acre field.
The potentially substantial gas reserves on these leases can "help meet our nation's domestic energy needs," PXP's Vice President of Corporate Communications Scott Winters wrote in an e-mail, adding that the company emphasizes "environmental protection in all its operations."
Citizens for the Wyoming Range -- along with The Wilderness Society, the Wyoming Outdoor Council and other groups -- want PXP to take advantage of a provision of the Wyoming Range Legacy Act that allows companies to donate or sell leases for permanent conservation. There's a precedent in northern Montana, where several companies voluntarily gave up leases they'd held for decades after legislation similar to Wyoming's Legacy Act passed in 2007. Broad public support for protecting the Rocky Mountain Front, the uncertainty of unproven gas reserves, and tax incentives convinced those companies to abandon leases. A few of the leases were donated, but private foundations paid large sums for most of them. Valid undeveloped leases remain in the Badger-Two Medicine area, and conservation groups hoping for relinquishment continue to work with those leaseholders.
Retiring leases can be tricky for both federal agencies and energy companies, says Gloria Flora, past supervisor of Montana's Lewis and Clark National Forest and advocate for the Rocky Mountain Front. An agency has to admit that selling the leases was a mistake and try to find a graceful way out, while energy companies are under pressure to develop their investments. It's a matter of "untangling the predicament," she says. "Everyone has something at stake."
In Wyoming, conservation groups have yet to find the funds it would take to buy PXP's leases if the company is willing to sell them. But in the meantime, they hope that the Forest Service's environmental analysis will propose strict rules to protect air, water, habitat and wildlife.
Energy development in the Noble Basin cannot harm critical habitat for the federally threatened Canada lynx, and it must meet the rigorous requirements of the Bridger-Teton Forest Plan: minimizing roads, keeping drilling byproducts out of streams, obliterating all roads and structures after drilling is complete, and causing "the least possible disturbance to wildlife on or adjacent to the leased land." PXP's drilling proposal has "a long way to go" to meet such stipulations, says Dan Heilig of the environmental law nonprofit Western Resource Advocates. The Forest Service could require PXP to transport equipment by helicopter, or allow only one drill at a time for just a few months each year.
Gov. Dave Freudenthal, D, has asked the agency to scrutinize how emissions from hydraulic fracturing, flaring and drilling would compound those of other local energy development. And Wyoming Game and Fish Director John Emmerich wrote the Forest Service in 2008 to ask for seasonal restrictions to protect crucial birthing grounds and migration corridors for elk, mule deer, moose and pronghorn in the Noble Basin. He also noted the importance of the basin for bears, wolverines, trout, sage grouse, three kinds of owls, and other species. "Significant impacts to many of the wildlife species will be very difficult if not impossible to mitigate," Emmerich wrote.
For now, advocates can only speculate about how development might be restricted. Forest Service officials declined several requests to comment for this article, writing that "it would be more appropriate to have this discussion" after the environmental analysis is released. "PXP knew going in this would be a challenging area to develop," says Lisa Dardy-McGee, national forests director for the Wyoming Outdoor Council. "It can't be business as usual."
Back in the Wyoming Range foothills, Chad parks the truck on a hill capped in yellow grass overlooking the Noble Basin. The knob we are standing on is "Davie's Hill," he says proudly, "named after Dave Willoughby." Chad claps his father on the shoulder with a smile. If gas development proceeds in the basin, even with restrictions, the Willoughbys and their friends foresee an end to their hunting here. They'll be pushed into places already used by other hunters, landscapes where they haven't spent their lives learning every draw and break and stand of timber. Chad's three daughters are just old enough to start hunting, and he and Dave look forward to sharing the family tradition with the girls. "It's not all about just going out and shooting things," Dave says. "It's about camaraderie, being together, bonding with our family and friends, setting around a campfire at night and talking."
The Forest Service's updated environmental analysis is scheduled for public review before the end of the year. Meanwhile, the Citizens for the Wyoming Range are writing editorials, organizing meetings -- 60 people showed up at one in Rock Springs in early September -- making billboards and distributing fliers to raise awareness about the pending development. "This is country you don't touch," Chad Willoughby says, looking out across the basin. "It's just a shame what they want to do."

Do you want a new setting for your wedding? To make it more lovely and romantic during your wedding shoot. If that’s the case, then searching for the newest wedding venues in Philadelphia PA is what you have to do. Since there are now many new venues in the industry that can cater special events, you are able to have a more unique wedding that you, your partner, and your guests will surely love. But then, since these venues are only starting, you have to be cautious before you make the final decision and make an agreement. Below are steps to make sure that you get to book for a venue that you can trust taking care of your wedding.
Search online. Most of the newest wedding venues in Philadelphia PA start by having a website where all the good things you can get from it are featured. See if there is a gallery of photos to see if the place is something that fits your requirement.
Get in contact with the coordinator. Check if they are prompt in answering your call and how polite are they in answering your queries. Hearing their enthusiasm accept potential clients is proof that they are willing to provide service to you.
Ask if you can make a personal visit. Not everything you see online is what you will anticipate once you get to have a view of it in person. Have doubts if they won’t allow you to have a tour in the place.
Ask for a quote. There is nothing more convenient than letting them know all your needs for your wedding if they can accommodate it. Plus, you get to have an estimate of how it might cost you. Also check if they offer great wedding packages in which you can save more.
Do the contract. Once everything has been settled, what’s next is to finalize it through a written contract. Everything must be stated there from the time and number of hours you need the place, the wedding supplies you need from them, the number of staff to assist you, and more. Make sure that solutions must be stated if in case there are cancellations or other issues.

As National Missing Children’s Day (May 25) approaches, the FBI would like to remind the public that every year thousands of children become victims of crime. The FBI’s mission to combat violent crimes against children stresses the importance of keeping our children safe using a strategy involving decreasing the vulnerability of children to sexual exploitation; developing a nationwide capacity to provide a rapid, effective, and measured investigation; and to work closely with local, state, and federal law enforcement partners through investigative programs, investigative assistance, and task force operations.
The impact the abduction of a child has on a family and community is often devastating. At the end of year 2013, the FBI’s National Crime Information Center’s (NCIC) database contained 33,849 active missing person records for juveniles under the age of 18, while 9,706 juveniles between the ages of 18 and 20 years of age were reported missing. These numbers account for 40.2 percent and 11.5 percent of the total 84,136 active missing person records at the end of last year.
In 2013, FBI San Diego, along with local, state, and federal law enforcement partners, worked together to bring an abducted child safely back home to San Diego. On May 7, 2014, FBI Director James Comey congratulated the FBI employees—along with all the law enforcement partners they worked with—for their outstanding efforts on the safe recovery of the abducted child at the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children’s (NCMEC) Congressional Breakfast and Law Enforcement Recognition Program. During the ceremony, Director Comey stressed the importance of private sector partners, such as the FBI’s partnership with NCMEC, in combating the crimes against children epidemic.
The FBI has also developed and implemented its own programs and technologies to aide in investigative efforts against crimes against children. In 2006, the FBI created the national Child Abduction Response Deployment (CARD) team to provide rapid and specialized resources to recover victims as quickly as possible. CARD is composed of approximately 60 agents stationed at field offices around the country. The agents selected for the CARD team are seasoned veterans specializing on crimes against children cases, especially child abductions. Since its inception, the CARD team has been deployed more than 100 times for approximately 108 victims.
The FBI also provides a free Child ID App available to iPhone and Android users. The FBI’s Child ID App is a convenient tool for storing photos and vital information about your child. The app provides an easy, at your fingertips way to update photos or information. With the FBI’s Child ID App, users can show pictures and provide physical identifiers such as height and weight to security personnel or police officers on the spot. A special tab on the app also allows you to quickly and easily e-mail information to authorities with only a few clicks. The app also includes tips on keeping children safe as well as specific guidance on what to do in those first few crucial hours after a child goes missing. To learn more about the FBI’s Child ID App, contact FBI San Diego’s Community Outreach Program at (858) 320-1800 or view the related video.
In observance of May 25, National Missing Children’s Day, NCMEC has again launched its yearly Take 25 campaign. The Take 25 pledge asks families, educators, law enforcement officers, and trusted adults to take 25 minutes to talk about safety with children. The annual event is also another tool to help raise awareness of the threat of child abductions, inform families about ways to keep their children safe, offer support to the family of victims, and combat crimes against children. Sign up to take the pledge and Take 25 to talk to your children about staying safe.

Garlic is a high value horticultural crop in the onion family. Farmers in Kenya can be able to grow it and considerably increase their income because garlic has a good local market. It is mainly used as food flavouring and for medicinal purposes. Garlic has anti-feedant (insect stop feeding), bacterial, fungicidal, insecticidal, nematicidal and repellent properties.
Garlic is effective against a wide range of disease-causing pathogens and insects at different stages in their life cycle (egg, larvae, adult). This includes ants, aphids, armyworms, diamondback moth and other caterpillars such as the false codling moth, pulse beetle, whitefly, wireworm, beetle, mice, mites, moles, and termites as well as fungi bacteria and nematodes. Garlic can kill beneficial insects as well. Therefore it should be used with caution.
When growing garlic for pest control, it has been recommended avoiding use of large amounts of fertilizers. This is because heavy doses of fertilizer reduce the concentration of the effective substances in the garlic.
Very few farmers grow garlic mainly due to lack of knowhow and experience on its production. This is one of the reasons for the poor quality of locally produced garlic; another reason is the stiff competition from China. Very often, farmers sell the garlic even before it has matured and cured properly (hanging and drying in controlled light). Exploitation by middlemen is another big problem; farmers who grow garlic rarely sell it directly in the market; they have to rely on brokers.
Garlic can grow well at an altitude of between 500-2000 meters above sea level. The right temperatures for garlic are between 12-24 °C. Extremely high temperatures are not suitable for garlic production. Excess humidity and rainfall interferes with proper garlic development, including bulb formation. The crop is grown in low rainfall areas where irrigation can be practiced, especially in early stages when the plant requires enough water to growth. Adequate sunlight is important for bulb development. Garlic develops its flavour depending on sunlight conditions during growth.
Garlic requires a fertile, well drained, light soil. Clay soils should be avoided since they lead to poor bulb development. Soil pH should be between 5.5 to 6.8. Deep soil cultivation is important to ensure rooting depth. Farmers should seek for advice on the garlic varieties suited to local conditions to ensure they get good yields that meet market requirements.
Garlic is vegetatively propagated. That means that the farmer has to plant individual cloves separated from the main bulb. Very small cloves should not be used. The larger the cloves, the more the space required for planting. The cloves should be planted in upright position. The bulbs intended for use as seed should be stored at 10 ° C and a relative humidity of 50 -56 per cent. Stored bulbs should be fumigated and continuously inspected to ensure they do not rot.
The crop is grown on raised beds or on ridges at a spacing of 30 cm between rows and 15 cm between the plants, giving a plant population of 15,000 to 20,000 per hectare. The normal seed clove requirement is 500-700 kg per hectare. Closer spacing within the rows is possible; but disease risks are also high when garlic is planted too closely; bulb formation is also affected when the cloves are near each other. The cloves should be planted at 2.5 cm deep in well-firmed, but not compacted soils.
Kenyan farmers have devised their own method of determining whether their clove seeds are ready for planting: They cut a cross-section of a clove to see if the inner leaf is developing. Its colour and appearance help them determine if the cloves are ready for planting.
Garlic does well if well-composted manure is ploughed in before planting. Top dressing with liquid manure should be done regularly at the beginning of 6 – 8 weeks and increased during bulb formation. The field should be weed free to ensure garlic does not compete for nutrients with weeds.
The most common diseases are purple blotch, downey mildew, rust and bulb rot (white rot). They can be controlled through long crop rotation, improved drainage and use of copper based fungicides such as copper oxydchloride, which is accepted in organic farming.

2 Chainz has delivered a grip of new merch in support of his forthcoming album Rap or Go to the League.
The collection includes T-shirts, a snapback, graphic boxer briefs, and a collection of stickers, but the highlight of the drop is, without a doubt, the "Sound of Atlanta" bomber jacket. The piece features a ROGTTL logo on the back, while the front pays tribute to ATL's biggest record labels. Imprints like Quality Control, So So Def, YSL, 1017 Brick Squad, and Hustle Gang are represented on the jacket, which was designed by 2 Chainz.
"I hope I didn’t leave anyone out," the rapper captioned an Instagram photo of the bomber, "This is a NBA style starter jacket with nothing but Atlanta record labels on it old and new."
The Rap or Go to the League merch is available now at 2 Chainz's official webstore. Each purchase will come with a digital copy of the album, which was A&R'd by LeBron James. ROGTTL will hit streaming services this Friday.

We had WAY too much fun in Amsterdam shooting Aliah’s in-home boudoir session. This walkup apartment is stunning and I can’t wait to go back! I definitely felt the moodiness of the light and edited a little bit darker than I normally do, but I’m obsessed. I love when clients want to use their own homes to help customize their boudoir session. I am also a huge fan of going more natural for photos. Aliah did her own hair and makeup for this! Her wardrobe was purchased in Ireland and Amsterdam and most of it is available to use in my studio!
The apartment – it’s so unique! I always recommend doing your session in your home.
Going bottomless – it’s a little unexpected having a top on but no bottoms.
Bare bed – forget all the frills! Whose bed is perfect all the time anyway?

Applying Teak Oil: Is It Necessary?
We are often asked if applying teak oil is necessary to maintain outdoor teak furniture. We have addressed this question in several previous posts. Therefore, you may want to review Teak Oil: When to use on Outdoor Teak and Maintaining your Outdoor Teak Furniture.
Once you understand that applying teak oil to your outdoor furniture is mostly cosmetic (assuming you start with the best raw materials) and will not affect the life of the product, you can decide if applying teak oil is for you.
Choose a brand of teak oil with no pigment. Some brands add pigments which can change the appearance of the teak furniture and cause it to lose the natural look.
Make sure the surface of your furniture is clean and smooth. Check out our other blogs on cleaning if you are unsure on how to accomplish this.
Test your oil on the underside or other hidden area of your furniture to make sure you like the way it looks.
Make sure you apply the oil consistently on the whole surface of your teak furniture. Take your time and make sure there are no extra heavy spots or thin spots. This may not look obvious at first. But, the parts with too much or too little oil will weather differently.
So, careful application should ensure consistent weathering and appearance of the furniture. However, customers who are not familiar with staining or painting wood may find this difficult. If you notice uneven weathering of your outdoor furniture, you should clean and lightly sand the piece and reapply the teak oil.
Also, if you decide to oil your teak, be prepared to reapply the oil every six to twelve months, depending on the climate and the amount of exposure to the elements the furniture gets.
Most importantly, go out and enjoy your outdoor spaces!
Read our other blogs and visit our teak furniture website to learn why teak from Thailand is the best. You will discover that all teak furniture is not created equally.

Kourtney and Kim Kardashian had a major twinning moment in Versace.
New York Fashion Week is officially upon us (almost), and with that comes the star-studded amfAR Gala, which raises funds for those affected by HIV and AIDS.
It goes without saying that the exclusive event is almost always a fashion treasure trove, with this year's attendees including Kourtney Kardashian, Kim Kardashian West, Candice Swanepoel, Winnie Harlow and more.
However, it was the Kardashian sisters' matching Versace gowns that stole the show—with KKW and her older sister evoking supermodel glamour, and proving that she's an unofficial muse for the Italian label. Dare we say it—they actually made hanging out with your sibling look fun.
Scroll down for every major fashion moment from the amfAR Gala in New York City.

The UK parliament has devoted most of the last few weeks in a state of anarchy, with pressing questions about the fate of the state turning on desperately close votes in the House of Commons. By comparison, across town in the City of London and Canary Wharf, where the world’s foreign exchange market is centred, there has been a sense of mysterious calm over the fate of the pound. Immediately after the Brexit referendum in 2016, sterling dropped by about 10 percent. In recent weeks, though, despite the original March 29 deadline for withdrawing from the EU, the pound has jumped around in response to political news but in a limited range, about $1.31 against the US dollar. However, that restricted movement indicates a precarious balance between the contingencies of disparate outcomes, including leaving without a deal, leaving with one shortly, or postponing the resolution until next year.
Analysts and investors have been looking at the odds at bookmakers. By noticing the relationship of fluctuations in betting probabilities to shifts in the pound, they have estimated what the prospects for sterling are expected to be. With bookmakers making an odds on of an over 50 percent chance the UK will still be in the EU by the end of 2019 because it has chosen to remain or been permitted a lengthy extension. But the estimated chance of a no-deal Brexit, although it has diminished in recent weeks, has nevertheless been around 25 percentin the past couple of days.
As and when outcomes are ruled out, there is a potential for a significant movement in the currency. If the UK crashes out of the EU without a deal, the recent relationship between sterling and betting odds suggests that the pound will crash to below $1.15, its lowest level for over 30 years. Those probabilities themselves may be crudely assessed. Bookmakers’ odds are hardly infallible predictors: they got the referendum in 2016 badly mistaken.
Last week Luis de Guindos, the ECB’s vice-president, cautioned that markets seemed to be underpricing the risk of no deal. Faced with such confusion, there is little that policymakers, as well as investors, can do except to stand poised to act rapidly if a hard Brexit threatens economic and financial stability. Mark Carney, the governor of the Bank of England, although he has wisely refused to commit to exact probabilities of a no-deal Brexit or hard estimates of what will occur if one takes place, said this week that the chance of an unplanned exit was “alarmingly high” and denounced the notion that the UK and EU ports and customs procedures would cope if it materialised. Long-term investors, struggling to peer through an impenetrable thicket of confusion towards the UK’s future, are wise to focus on insuring themselves against risks rather than taking big bets either way. A no-deal Brexit, particularly if the two sides do not quickly return to the table and agree a managed withdrawal, could inflict serious damage on the UK economy. Wild swings in sterling will merely be a precursor of that. The calm surrounding sterling in the foreign exchange markets reflects a temporary balance between competing outcomes rather than long-term stability.

In the time of giants, "He Whose Head Sweeps the Sky," Yakke-elt’ini, used to wander by the Artic Ocean. One day he met another giant whose name was Bettsinuli and they engaged in a fierce fight. Bettsinuli was the stronger of the two and would surely have won, but "He Whose Head Sweeps the Sky" was saved by a Dene man, whom he was protecting, who cut the back of Bettsinuli’s ankle with an ax made of a giant beaver’s tooth. The bad giant fell backwards in to the sea in such a manner that his feet lay in the West and his head rested in our own country. His head reached the area around Cold Lake, and it is for this reason the Dene of these parts call themselves Thi-lan-ottine, "the people of the end of the head."
Cree Burn Lake is located in the head area of the fallen great giant. In 1999, it was designated as a Provincial Historical Site. "The site is also important to local Chiewayan, Cree and Métis residents, as it documents their own pre-contact history as direst descendants of the people who arrived later in the area" (The Gathering Place, 13). It is a site filled with oral and archaeological history that traces thousands of years. It provides a foundation in learning how the Dene and related Athapaskan speaking peoples came to exist in this location. The Dene named this place Ena k’ering k’a, which means Enemy Burnlake or Stranger Burnlake. The name possibly comes from around the time that the Cree first acquired guns and used them in war.
In addition to Aboriginal oral history, Cree Burn Lake contains a vast amount of archaeological evidence about the first human activity in the area of northern Alberta. The location is said to have developed into an historic lake as a result of glacial melt. Beaver River Sandstone is found in this area. This is an important substance used to make tools that had a sharp edge. Artifacts containing Beaver River Sandstone are found throughout Alberta, demonstrating Cree Burn Lake’s connection to trade routes that existed prior to contact. In addition, leaf-shaped points have been found at the site. Leaf-shaped tools came into popularity about 8,000 years ago.
Cree Burn Lake is known as a gathering place for the Cree and Dene groups. Prior to contact the Cree and Dene had a social structure that was composed of bands and extended family groups that did not travel together year-round. They used the Cree Burn Lake area as a summer meeting place for trade, family reunions, marriages, and spiritual ceremonies. Currently, Cree Burn Lake continues to be used for gatherings.
Historically, Cree Burn Lake is known as being the location where the first recordings of Slave Woman by James Knight occurred. He came across a Dene woman whom he called Slave Woman. Oral tradition says that she is the young girl who was kidnapped by the Cree during the confrontation. When she returned to this area as a grown woman, she met the Factor of York Fort, James Knight. She passed away in 1717.
Recognizing the importance of Cree Burn Lake as a gathering place for Aboriginal people in the immediate and surrounding area, Peter Pond of the Northwest Company built the first fur-trading fort in Alberta near Cree Burn Lake in 1778.

24 Online Shopping Hacks You Need to Know Now!
Before you buy another thing online, READ THIS POST.
1. Start your online shopping Wednesday for the best deals and the largest selections. Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays are the most popular days for retailers to roll out sales and discount codes.
2. Ask for discounts directly. The next time you see one of those little dialogue boxes asking if you would like to chat with someone at the company, don’t just close it. Say hello and ask if they have any promo codes they can share with you. Often, they have access to deals that you might not find otherwise.
You can also email or call customer service if chatting is not an option. If you call, though, make sure you check out Get Human first to help you figure out exactly which phone number to use to get direct access to a real person. If that doesn’t work, try tweeting at them. Many brands are much more responsive through social media than they are through traditional modes of communication.
3. When shopping on Amazon.com, use the Amazon filler item finder to reach that all-important $35 minimum needed for free shipping if you don’t have Amazon Prime. Just type in the amount needed to reach the minimum for free shipping and the filler finder will produce a list of items at or just slightly above that amount for you to choose from.
4. Use size filters to spare yourself the pain of seeing an item you love only to realize that it is not available in your size. Great if you need something right away for a specific event and can’t wait for the store to restock.
5. Stick to sites that offer free shipping both ways and buy extras. You can buy the same piece in multiple sizes to ensure that you get an optimal fit. Yes, you will have to return the stuff you don’t want to keep, but often you can return items bought online directly to the store if that is more convenient than dealing with shipping. Just make sure you read those return policies carefully before making your purchses.
6. If you’re diligent about paying off your credit card bill each month, it’s better to use a credit card over a debit card when shopping online. It takes a lot less time to refund a credit card than a debit card.
7. If you are not sure about an item, put it in your cart and leave the site without completing the purchase. Sometimes brands will reach out to you with a special discount. Just make sure you have an account set up with them before you close out. If you start your checkout as a “guest” instead of registering, then they won’t know who you are or how to get in touch with you. Also, make sure you click the “OK to contact me about sales and special offers” option when you register.
8. Make a shopping list and then use aggregate shopping sites like Polyvore andShop Style to search for the specific items you want in the sizes and colors you need, at prices you can afford. You may even find that multiple sites are selling the same item at different prices.
9. Favorite items you like, but are unsure you want to buy. Then get updates when they go on sale. This is works great on aggregate sites like Polyvore or one-stop retailers likeShopbop and Revolve.
10. Score a deal even when items aren’t on sale by buying discounted gift cards online and using them to pay for the items you like on your favorite websites. Sites like Cardpool buy gift cards for a faction of their actual value and then sell them at a discount. So let’s say someone has a $20 gift card to Express that they don’t want. They sell it to Cardpool for $15 and then Cardpool turns around and sells it to you for $17. Now you’ve got $20 to spend at express, but you only paid $17 for it. That’s a savings of 15 percent. Yeah, it’s sort of a lot of work for a measly $3, but but if you’re buying a lot of stuff, those discounts can really add up. It can take a little time to actually get the gift cards, though, so make plan your shopping accordingly.
11. Don’t believe the sale hype. Sometimes sites will inflate the starting price of an item to make it look like you are saving more money than you really are, so it’s up to you to do your due diligence and make sure the prices you are being given are accurate. Just put the item you’re interested in into your cart so you don’t lose it, and then do a quick Google search for the designer’s name and the type of product you are shopping for. You may find that the amazing deal you thought you were getting isn’t actually so great after all. You may even find that same item for less.
12. Pay close attention to the stats of the model online, especially if you are more on the petite side. A crop top that exposes 6 inches of stomach on a model who is 5-foot-10, might feel intimidatingly naked at first, but, depending on how tall you are, you may find that your midriff is barely exposed at all. Similarly, a midi skirt on the model will probably end up looking more like a maxi on you if you are only 5-foot-2.
13. Use Unroll to clean up your email inbox so you only get alerts from the sites and brands you actually care about. Unroll lets you see all your email subscriptions at once and easily unsubscribe from all the junk that is clogging your inbox. Then it sends you monthly updates letting you know if your account has been added to other email lists so you can unsubscribe from them as well.
14. Once your email is cleaned up, set up a filter to move all your shopping-related emails into a specific folder. That way you only have to look at them when you want to.Here’s how you do it in Gmail.
15. Sign up for rewards and insider programs wherever you shop. The benefits vary from brand to brand and site to site, but can range from special members-only discounts to advance previews and special sales — especially useful on flash sites like Gilt where getting to check out a sale 15 minutes before the rest of the world can mean the difference between getting the item you want and walking away empty-handed.
16. Follow your favorite brands on social media for access to special discounts not advertised elsewhere. Often brands will roll out special deals exclusively through Twitter or Facebook.
17. Promote brands through social media to get discounts and then delete the evidence. If a brand offers you free shipping or 10 percent off to like them on Facebook, you’d be crazy not to do it. Once you have the discount code, you can go back into your social account and delete the marketing from your feed without invalidating the discount.
18. Set alarms on your phone to remind yourself about upcoming sales. This is particularly useful when you are shopping on flash sale sites where time and quantities are so limited.
19. Use the wait-list function when items you like are not available in your size. If enough people express interest in a particular item, brands will often reorder it and give you a heads up when it becomes available, so you don’t miss out again.
20. Prioritize one-stop e-commerce sites like ASOS and Nordstrom, which source multiple brands and sell everything from clothes and shoes to jewelry and lingerie.Buying and returning is so much easier when you are just dealing with one store.
21. Shop through rewards sites like Ebates to earn points and get cash back on purchases you were planning to make anyway. Sephora and Neiman Marcus offer 8 percent cash back on purchases made through Ebates. That’s a lot. Most credit cards only offer 1 to 2 percent cash back on purchases. Ebates will send you a check every three months with the cash back you’ve earned.
22. Download the free PriceBlink widget for instant access to coupons, product reviews, and to compare prices across the Internet. Once downloaded, a yellow bar will automatically pop up whenever you are shopping online and alert you to coupons and product reviews for the site or product you are looking at. It will also help you compare prices across the Internet to ensure that you are getting the best deal possible. It is better for tech and consumer goods than fashion and accessories, but it is minimally intrusive, so it’s worth downloading no matter what form your online shopping takes.
23. Read community reviews of specific products for fit details and styling inspo. Some sites, like Mod Cloth and Free People, allow users to review their products online and upload photos of themselves wearing the garments. All you have to do is click on the item you are interested in and scroll down.
24. Only buy final-sale items from brands you know and trust to deliver high-quality clothing in consistent sizes. If you still end up not really liking it, you can always try reselling it on eBay or The Real Real. Just make sure you leave the tags on as people tend to pay more for secondhand items that are NWT (New With Tags).

If you’re so inclined, here’s a review of Zones of Privacy by Alisha Sett that appeared in the Hindu the other day.
A contrasting experience of honesty can be found in the ironic tone and self-reflexive journals of Sunandini Basu piled up on the centre table of the exhibition. An animation designer for 15 years, she had to sift through 96 journals to make her selection for the show. For Basu, journaling is a process of making life. She shared with us that through these “letters for her future self” she “often remember(s) forgotten wishes and goals or events” that shaped her. It’s delightful to stroll through the worries and victories of her daily life. One can trace the arc of the conversation the young designer has had with herself over the years and feel like a confidential encounter has taken place.

As a recent college graduate and former on campus resident (now renter), I’ve acquired a bunch of great hacks and DIYs over the years on ways to decorate and organize my space like a pro without damaging any walls, furniture, or my wallet!
Working at Pro Tapes® and learning about all of our amazing clean removal products, it had really opened my eyes to so many more ways to achieve the same outcome but with much more ease, and effectiveness. Before I would be using “clean removal” products that actually weren’t so easy to remove. Now that I have been introduced to UGlu®, Pro® 46 and Pro Gaff®; the whole game has changed!
Keep in mind there are two distinct ways I utilized these three Pro Tapes® products; one, tape is being used as the actual decoration, and two, tape is being used as a replacement for hooks, nails, glue or screws.
Shall we jump right into it?
Being the neat freak I am, I love this hack because I like everything to be tucked away and out of sight. For this solution, every inch of unutilized space will be utilized, for the ultimate tidy room.
Small storage containers, cups, etc.
Who doesn’t love a good hack? Not only are these hacks awesome but they also really work!
Ever had a carpet, or area rug that would just slip and slide no matter what? Get some UGlu®, apply it to the corners of your carpet or area rug and stick to floor…viola! No more slipping and sliding!
Bland, boring walls? Not allowed to paint? Well here are 4 Pro Tapes® approved solutions for you.
Cover ugly, or bland walls with your favorite tapestry, sheet, poster, etc., WITHOUT leaving holes in your fabric or your walls and it only takes 3 easy steps!
ATG Tape is an adhesive transfer tape where the adhesive is “reverse wound” meaning the adhesive is wound on the outside of the roll, ideal for use in an adhesive transfer gun where the tape is threaded around the roller at the nose of the gun adhesive side out.

Children’s rooms are supposed to be very cute, every piece of furniture in them is very special and joyful. The toddler sofa is one of these items, and they are very popular in children’s room from three years olds and up. They are used mainly with their own table as a play area for the child, where he can sit down to use colors to draw or to do anything else. The idea is to create a special place in the child’s room, and it is also similar to the one that grownups have. This will enhance the child’s confidence, and creates a special bond between him and his room. This will be a great idea if you want to separate you child in his own room.
The toddler sofa usually has the same design as the normal one, with arms and everything. Of course it is minimized to a smaller size, but it has the same shape. Some of them have no legs, as the sofa is directly put on the floor. Other designs have legs just like the big ones do, and they both serve for a reason. The sofas that have no legs usually open up to be a bed, which would be hard if they have legs. Some of the sofas come with their own cushions, which is a great addition that children love. These cushions can take the shape of funny little cartoon characters, or even the shape of fruits or farm animals.
There are great differences in a toddler sofa according to the gender, it changes everything about it. Color, shape and design change according to whether it is a boy or a girl. Boys tend to get darker colors suitable for them, like green or blue. Girls want red and pink or their variations, and they also like more details on the sofa. It also can have a drawing or a small poster on it, boys in this case will want super heroes and cars; while girls want flowers and Disney princesses. So the design is also affected by the gender of the toddler, and it is always nice to let them choose for themselves.
The toddler sofa can has other features in it, like it can be opened to form a bed or chaise lounge. It can also have a built in lamp for night time, and a cup holder on one of its arms. There is also the addition of a matching table, which will create a great seating place. If you have any other special addition to the setting you can add it, as it is always nice to have it your way.

You will need a basic understanding on how to create Doom levels to be able to do this, there are plenty of great resources online for creating Doom 2 maps.
Making custom maps in Total Chaos is easy to setup.
We use GZDoom Builder to create our maps. You can download it here.
Once you have set it up, follow these steps to start making your first map!
Once you open GZDoom Builder go to Tools > Game Configurations.
Go to GZDoom: Doom 2 (UDMF) and click it. You are going to want to add totalchaos.pk3 from your gamedata directory here. You can add this via the Add Resource button.
Click OK. GZDoom Builder should now be configured to start creating Total Chaos maps. From here, go to File > New Map. Select GZDoom: Doom 2 (UDMF) from the Game Configuration dropdown and enter MAP01 for your level name. Then click OK.
You can now start making your map. Drop a few linedefs in and a Player Start thing.
Once you have created your map, you want to package it into a PK3 so Total Chaos can run it. To do this, simply zip up the map wad you have created and rename it from .zip to .pk3. From here, drag and drop it into the gamedata/mods folder. You can now switch it on from the Total Chaos Launcher.
This teleports the player to another map spot and plays a door open/close sound effect.

Firkin Fest returns to Headquarter Beercade’s new River North location (213 W. Institute) on Sunday, March 29, 2015. Capacity Bar Group announces the return of an event of epic ale proportions. For the second year in a row, Headquarters Beercade will host Firkin Fest, a unique tasting event that celebrates the city’s craft beer community. Last year’s sell-out event was attended by over 500 brew buffs and this year’s battle will be even bigger than before.
So, what in the firk is a firkin? It’s considered “real ale,” one that is cask conditioned but has not been cold-filtered, pasteurized, or carbonated by outside equipment. The cask barrels preserve the taste in its most wholesome state, while the interior beer harbors active yeast, which means the flavor profile will evolve over time. At Firkin Fest, craft beer connoisseurs will have the chance to taste fifty unique brews through an unadulterated process of consumption. Top breweries will battle in a fight for the finest firkin with ales that have never been sipped before – and may not be savored ever again!
50 Breweries - 50 Firkins!
Sip on offerings crafted by a variety of vendors, including Illinois favorites: Goose Island Beer Co. (winner of the 2014 Firkin Fest “People’s Choice Award;” Chicago, IL); Begyle Brewery (Chicago, IL); Desthil (Normal, IL); Half Acre Beer Company (Chicago, IL); Metropolitan Brewing (Chicago, IL); Off Color Brewing (Chicago, IL); Penrose Brewing (Geneva, IL); Revolution Brewing (Chicago, IL); Solemn Oath Brewery (Naperville, IL); and Two Brothers Brewery & Taphouse (Warrenville, IL). Respected regional breweries will also include: 3 Floyds Brewing Co. (Munster, IL); 3 Sheeps Brewing Co. (Sheboygan, WI); Brewery Vivant (Grand Rapids, MI); Green Flash Brewing (San Diego, CA); Founders Brewing Co. (Grand Rapids, MI); Left Hand Brewing (Longmont, CO); Oskar Blues (Lyons, CO); Surly Brewing Co. (Brooklyn Center, MN); SKA Brewing (Durango, CO); Tyranena Brewing (Lake Mills, WI); Vander Mill Brewery (Spring Lake, MI); and Victory Brewing Company (Downingtown, PA).
Attendees can enjoy their fill of firkins, but only one firkin will command the crown of the “People’s Choice Award” at the end of this satisfying Sunday. In addition, guests can mingle with an esteemed panel of hand-picked industry and media experts. From beer bloggers to brewery reps, this event will be packed with top ale professionals from Chicago and beyond.
Advanced General Admission Tickets are $75 and can be purchased online.

Parents, know your child! The life of a new born child is like that of a brand new slate. It is an empty page, an open book, waiting to be written upon. As a parent, you have this beautiful opportunity to write on the first slate of someone’s life. We can guide them along the way so that they are not left to figure out life by themselves.
Parents/guardian indeed have a grave responsibility to monitor, guide and guard their child/children/wards, particularly in the formative years – from 0 to 12. These children do not ask to be born. It is your choices as parents that brought them to be. Therefore, parents have the ultimate responsibility to care for their children/wards properly, keep them in a safe environment, and provide for their needs.
Our kids are not just there to be provided for. We can get involved with each of the kids, and not only buy them material things. Your child needs to engage with you. S/he needs to experience you as dad or mom, on a personal level; one-on-one. If you do not spend ample, and quality time with a child, you will not know that child.
So, know your child. Be one with your child especially in the basic formative years when you still have the opportunity to mould him/her spiritually, emotionally, physically, academically, psychologically and socially.
Know your child’s history. There are probably things that have affected the child as he/she grew up. Know these factors, be it environment, individuals who influenced them, circumstances, misfortunes, family, and any other possible factors in the child’s history.
Also, it is also important to know your child’s talents, fears, weaknesses, strengths, personality and tendencies. Know their dreams and aspirations. A certain child kept saying that he would have a factory and employ people. The dream came true. Hence, when we know our children’s aspirations, we can guide them accordingly.
he will not depart from it” (Proverbs 22:6).
Have an activity which you carry out with each of your kids/teenagers. Indeed, this will give each a sense of his/her uniqueness and that child will have time to just be with dad or with mum when that activity is being carried out. This will boost their self-esteem and the child will have a sense of his or her importance as part of the larger family.

The Glen Ellyn Library Foundation generously donated a MakerBot Replicator 3D Printer to the library in 2013.
The Glen Ellyn Public Library’s 3D printers create three-dimensional plastic objects from digital designs!
Members of the library can take original designs they have created and generate everything from prototypes to toys to household items.
The print file must be submitted in a .stl format.
The print object must be smaller than 11.2 L x 6.0 W x 6.1 H in inches.
This is our maximum dimensions, and not a printing goal.
Unless specific measurements are listed, we will scale print files down to a cost-efficient size.
The printer will only print an object in a single color. You may submit a preference, but the library will determine the color of the filament for printing based on availability. However, specific color requests may be considered for special projects.
Each print file will be reviewed by Glen Ellyn Public Library staff before it is printed.
The library will only print original designs, and will not print any offensive material or weapons.
Submissions by one person must not exceed one request per every two weeks.
Printing is available on a first-come, first-served basis and is coordinated by the Glen Ellyn Public Library staff. Priority printing is given to library programs and events.
Print jobs take an average of two weeks to complete. Due to the amount of time it takes to print an object, the number of requests received and staff availability, the library will not guarantee that a print job will be ready on a specific day. Those submitting print requests will be contacted when their object is available for pick up.
Send an email to makerbot followed by @gepl.org with “3D Print” in the subject line and .stl file attached, as well as the desired dimensions of the completed object and any color preferences.
Once your submission has been received, library staff will review your 3D model for printability and appropriateness. If changes are needed, you will receive an email detailing the changes. If no changes are needed, your model will be printed and kept for pickup at the library. You can expect models to be printed in about two weeks, but printing time can vary due to class use of the printer or printer downtime.
You will receive an email letting you know it is ready for pickup. Ask at the Youth Information Desk for your model.
For 3D printing requests that do not meet the listed requirements, please contact the Glen Ellyn Public Library at makerbot followed by @gepl.org for consideration.
3D printing is the process of creating a physical object based on a 3D digital model. It works by adding multiple layers of material on each other to build a shape. There are two steps to the 3D printing process. The first is the digital design portion, in which the 3D digital model is created through some sort of design software. The second is the printer portion involving the creation of the actual object. The printer, a MakerBot Replicator 2, melts plastic filament to create paper-thin layers that build professional-quality, high resolution solid objects.
Is a 3D printer a device that is practical for individual households, or is it more suited to business and industry?
Both households and business can benefit from the advantages of 3D printing. In a household, it is great for creating items that cannot easily be obtained in the stores. It is also perfect for personalized items, such as toys, jewelry, and presents. In a business or industry, professional-grade 3D printers are perfect for prototypes and personalization.
Why does the library offer this service?
The Glen Ellyn Public Library strives to provide access to new technologies staff think will be relevant to the community. 3D printing is an ever-growing, ever-changing technology that offers a wide range of possibilities for the present, and continues to shape the future. It is important for community members of all ages to be familiar with this innovative technology, as it supports Common Core, STEAM learning, and ISTE Standards.
What type of material/filament is used?
The Makerbot Replicator 2 uses a 1.75mm PLA plastic filament. It is a cheaper plastic that biodegrades in the right circumstances.
Is the printing only available to youth?
No, everyone is welcome to print!
I’m a teacher at a Glen Ellyn school and would like my students to receive a demo. What should I do?
Staff would love to work with you. Contact us at makerbot followed by @gepl.org and someone will be in touch about scheduling a visit.
I’m a Glen Ellyn business owner and would like to design a 3D print as a model for a product I’m designing. Can I use your library’s services?
3D printing services for organizations are evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Please email makerbot followed by @gepl.org for additional questions regarding your print.
How do I design my own project?
You will need access to a Computer Assisted Design (CAD) software program. The Glen Ellyn Public Library uses TinkerCAD software, a free browser based 3D modeling program, to teach members to create objects in three dimensional form. GEPL staff also teach how to use TinkerCAD during 3D Printing Open Labs.
I found an .stl file online. Can I use that?
No. The library will only print original files submitted by the creator.

Promoting diversity in technology through scholarship awards – it's the mission created for the Gender Diversity Initiative (GDI) awards, but also a rallying cry for our members. Internet2 member campus CIOs have embraced the GDI program, created in 2014, by nominating bright stars at their schools to experience an Internet2 meeting, attend sessions and working groups, meet fellow technologists, participate in discussions and even, in the case of this spring’s Global Summit, have a private meet and greet with an acclaimed rock star in the world of science, astronaut Dr. Mae Jemison, a leading voice for science, social responsibility and education.
The primary goal of the program is that awardees use their experiences to establish relationships, build the knowledge capital of their institutions within their local, regional and national technology environments, and help diversify technology—bringing greater opportunity to IT professionals in their home organizations and beyond. Visit the Internet2 Gender Diversity Award page for more information and to find out how to nominate someone from your campus for a future Internet2 meeting.
Four of the scholarship winners share their highlights of the Global Summit below. Are you a past GDI winner? We’d love to feature your testimonial in a future blog post – tweet us @Internet2 to connect.
I am forever grateful for my experience at the 2017 Internet2 Global Summit. I got to reconnect with several people that I know and admire, connected with some powerful helpers in my field (Nick Roy and I are already putting together a Rocky Mountain IAM summit for this summer), and had the chance to meet some amazing figures - including Mae Jemison and Lucy Sanders that inspired me to search within myself to be a better role model with each decision I make. I also appreciate that I got to know some highly-capable female counter-parts in my field. I look forward to further collaborating with them!
It was an honor to be selected as one of the 2017 Internet2 Gender Diversity Awardees. A special moment from the week of networking and learning was the meet and great with Dr. Mae Jemison. The opportunity to converse and learn from this brilliant woman was extraordinary. She is an amazing lady who reminded each us that that we have not been invited to the table, we earned our seat at the table.
I attended several impressive sessions, including the technical discussions and the gender diversity discussions. I still remember the talk from the speakers of NCWIT. They presented several facts showing that it is important to bring more women into the IT industry and to provide more support to them. These sessions also gave me some useful suggestions on how to be more proactive and be braver in my career. I was grateful to talk to Bruce Maas, the CIO of University of Wisconsin-Madison, who showed great concerns on encouraging more and more women to enter the IT industry and provided great support to us as well. I am so grateful that I could attend the Internet2 Global summit as a gender diversity winner. It was a very inspiring experience in my life.
My experience at the Global Summit was not only informative but inspirational. I attended several great talks about precision agriculture, Internet2's work with native tribes and discussions about where Internet2 plans to engage new networks. All of these sessions helped enhance my perspective of Internet2's community but understand developing viewpoints where I have no experience. I enjoyed meeting Internet2's decision makers and, especially Dr. Mae Jemison, who was very engaging. After having this opportunity, I can see a clearer future that intertwines my skillset and interests. I look forward to engaging with this community as my role in Purdue's Academic Research Computing develops.

I spent several weeks in Bali late June to late July this year, and as I mentioned in my previous blog post on bali (click here), it was my second time there. It still is one of my favourite holiday destinations in the world, because it’s so relaxed, the people are warm and its just a really easy place to get around and explore. It’s also pretty reasonable for accommodation and food, and the pace is more ‘easy’ than if you were to go to Europe on holiday. Expect more lazy days by a pool or on the beach, or an afternoon snooze in a villa with the sounds of gecko’s clicking, or frogs croaking. When I feel like closing the door on stress and noise, Bali is the place that always comes to mind.
My favourites areas in Bali are Ubud and Seminyak, and then just off the mainland, the Gili islands, which actually falls under Lombok. I love Ubud for its lush rice paddies, markets and chilled cafe scene. Seminyak is more of a resort type area with upmarket shops and restaurants. Even the infrastructure is more modern than most other parts of Bali. I loved just wandering the streets in both places and then just popping into a cafe for some delicious rice or noodles. That’s pretty much what I ate every day, but if you did enough research, you’d find that there are a fair enough selection of cafes and restaurants to suit your dietary requirements. I got a free 30 day visa on entry, but check to see if your country covered by clicking here.
Attitude is everything. Remember when you are in a foreign country, your attitude and how you respond to the locals and their ‘system’ can alter your experience there. Go in with a positive attitude, patience and an openness to take things as they come.
Approach bargaining as fun. When you’re in the markets or hailing a taxi, the locals expect foreigners to bargain. But don’t get aggressive. The Balinese are gentle people. Think of it as a ‘dance with a smile.’ For example, if you are bargaining for a wooden ornament, and they quote you Rp.180., you can usually get them down to just under a half for that. But it depends on what it is. Always ask ‘what is your best price.’. It’s more about the fun of bargaining than actually saving a few rupiahs.
There are taxi’s everywhere in Ubud and they are always willing to negotiate. So for a solo traveller or a family of 5, booking a driver for 5-6 hours to take you around, would cost about 400.KRp ($30).
There are a lot of holes on the sidewalks, especially in Ubud. So don’t be walking and talking on your phone or you’ll disappear down a whole. Alice in Wonderland style.
There are plenty of laundromats, so I recommend taking your clothes there, and not getting them washed at the hotel or where you are staying. Expect to pay about ZAR15 a kg ($1 per kg). I photograph each item before I hand it in for washing because many Balinese don’t speak English, so if something is misplaced (which has never happened to me), then you can just show them the photo of the missing item.
On that note of photos, it’s always a good idea to take a photo of all your travel documents too and email them to yourself in case you lose them along the way.
Pack light for Bali. Whatever you pack, take out half. It’s a great place for shopping! If you’re travelling with one suitcase, pack in an extra bag. You will fill it up!
Ubud: My favourite restaurant and one I went back to numerous times is Sayuri Healing Food. Although I’m not vegetarian, the food was divine and they use crunchy fresh ingredients. It’s a great spot for sitting and reading or just chilling out. Warung Biah Biah (Jl. Goutama Sel. No.13) has a lovely, cozy ambiance and is always full. A testament to just how delicious the food is. The street itself (Jalan Goutama) is pedestrian friendly, and lined with quirky shop, spas and cafes. It’s a short street to walk along, but I loved the vibe so went back many times. Kafe Ubud, 100% natural, organic meals in a lively, super friendly, wholesome food cafe definitely one to try out. The food is so beautifully displayed and colourful, and it’s open until very late.
Seminyak: Take a wander along Jalan Raya Seminyak. It’s very easy to get around on foot if you enjoy walking. I used the big intersection “Seminyak Village” sign as my main landmark and then just went off in different directions from there. If you enjoy markets, head to Seminyak Flea Market, Jl. Kayu Aya. Great for clothes shopping and the prices are a bit more than Ubud because of the quality of the fabric. There’s also a cool market right next to Seminyak Village that does lovely women’s and children’s clothing. I spent such a short time there, I got something to eat on the go, so can’t recommend any restaurants. But the streets are lined with cafes and restaurants’, so you won’t go starving.
Gili Islands: Gili Meno, Gili Air and Gili Trawangan (known as Gili T) – in a nutshell, Gili Meno has the least people, and less things to do. Many couples go there, but a great place for swimming and taking it easy. Also good for families that want a beach holiday, or snorkelling. The restaurants are a few meters from the beaches. Gili Air – more vibey, greater selection of restaurants and a mix of young and old people, and my favourite of the islands. Gili T, also known as the party island, and the island that never sleeps isn’t my scene, but I stopped there for lunch at The Banyan Tree while waiting for a boat back to the mainland. It’s few meters from the harbour and has a fun menu with so much on it, it took ages to decide on a meal.
Foods to try – which will be at all Balinese restaurants: Nasi Goreng, Gado Gado (peanut sauce), Mie Goreng. If you enjoy beer, try the lemon Bintang – it tastes like a soft drink, but very refreshing.
Yoga – if you’re into yoga, pop to The Yoga Barn, a sanctuary with 6 yoga studios, a healing centre and accommodation, and set amidst rice paddies and in the heart of Ubub. But once you enter, you’ll forget you’re even in a bustling town, because it’s like world of it’s own. Even if you’re not very zen, you’ll leave feeling like you are! I bought a 10 session pass, and I could use it on any of their classes, which included Qi gong, meditation, vinyasa, power, beginner yoga, hatha and yin yoga.
I’ve used both airbnb and booking.com for accommodation. Airbnb has better options if you are going as a family or bigger group – then you have the option of hiring a villa. I have recently heard of Villa Bali, so will have a look through there when I go back again.

For 20 years, homeowners in the Atlanta area have trusted Southern Starr Home Builders to improve their homes and provide a first class remodeling experience.
Southern Starr Home Builders is a full service design build firm that specializes in remodeling for homeowners in the Atlanta Metro area who value a high level of professionalism and comfort in knowing that their home remodeling project will exceed their expectations.
With our experienced team of contractors, designers, and trades professionals, Southern Starr Home Builders provides our clients with the personal attention, accountability, and dedicated project management that result in remodeling projects that add life, beauty, and value to their homes.
What Makes Southern Starr Different?
We realize you have many choices when hiring a remodeling company or home improvement contractor to update or transform your home. While the homes remodel are top of the line, we strive to differentiate from other remodeling companies by providing a better home remodeling experience for our clients.
We understand that a home remodel is something you will only experience once or twice in a lifetime. Therefore, you shouldn’t be expected to be an expert at planning, designing, and building it.
It’s also no secret that many homeowners have had sub-standard experiences with home improvement contractors who don’t communicate, don’t show up when they say they’re going to, take too long to finish the job, and charge more money than was originally quoted.
We want to change the way you think about home remodeling. When done right, the Southern Starr way, the process can be exciting, enjoyable, and rewarding.
We are a licensed Georgia contractor (License # RBQA004110). In addition, we carry $2,000,000 of General Liability Insurance (more than the required amount) and $500,000 of Workers Compensation Insurance.
Where possible, we enjoy supporting our local community by recycling any building materials and fixtures. For example, if we are doing a demo of existing cabinetry, plumbing fixtures, or light fixtures, if the materials are still in usable condition, we donate them to Habitat ReStore. ReStore refurbishes the products and then sells them at their retail store. The proceeds go back to Habitat for Humanity. If there’s any products that we are not able to donate to Habitat, we then try to donate them to a local Church or Synagogue.
While we design and remodel homes for a variety of budget ranges, we work best with homeowners who tend to have a familiarity with the remodeling experience and all of the pieces that contribute to a successful project.
Our clients value working with a professional company who helps to educate them on their various options so they can make informed decisions about their project and their home. They understand that choosing a contractor on price alone seldom results in a smart decision. Our clients value our insight on design and how their basement complements the other parts of their home.
A successful home remodeling project is a true collaboration between the homeowner, design team, and remodeling company. We enjoy working together with our clients to produce basements that they will enjoy for many years.
Whether you are ready to begin remodeling your home or just have a few questions as you begin the brainstorming phase, we invite you to contact us for a complimentary phone consultation. We look forward to learning about the ideas you have for your home and potentially working with you to transform those ideas into a beautifully remodeled home.

Ellen DeGeneres‘ father, Elliot DeGeneres, has died at age 92.
“Before we go to break, there’s something else I want to talk about. I mentioned yesterday when I was talking about all the mudslides that are going on in my community of Montecito, which is heartbreaking, I said that I had a lot going on in my life. In addition to what’s going on in Montecito, I lost my dad this week,” DeGeneres said in a video.
The comedian also went on to explain that her father was very proud of her.
DeGeneres also shared with her audience that she was able to say goodbye to her father before he passed.

A signficant portion of an employer’s payroll budget is spent on providing benefits to their employees. According to the September 2016 Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) Employer Costs for Employee Compensation news release, benefits accounted for 31.4% of total compensation to employees. Unfortunately, most employers aren’t effective at letting employees know that their actual compensation is far greater than just their paycheck.
Employers are encouraged to let employees know at least annually what their total compensation package represents. EAF provides employers with a sample form showing what should be included in the communiqué. This form is in an Excel format which will automatically calculate the results as you input your numbers. Please contact Christine Crews ([email protected] or 407.260.6556) and we’ll be happy to send you this sample form.
While it can be a little time consuming to gather this information on an individual employee basis the benefits will far outweigh the time spent collecting the data. In an environment where employers are struggling to hang onto their top talent, this is a tool that can be leveraged to the company’s advantage.
Increases in state minimum wage rates coupled with new Fair Labor Standards Act regulations affecting the salaries pay our exempt employees makes it even more important to find value-added benefits at affordable costs. Some of those low-cost or no-cost benefits include flexible schedules, relaxed dress codes, “bring your dog to work” days, etc.
The types of benefits you provide to employees in large part depends on the culture of the organization, the demographic make-up of your employees, the types of benefits your competitors are providing and, of course, costs. A competitive benefits package is a key component to attracting and retaining a strong workforce.
Contributed by the Employers Association Forum, Inc. (EAF).

New Zealand have brought paceman Tim Southee and batsman Hamish Rutherford into the squad for the second One-day International against England on Wednesday after injuries to seamer Mitchell McClenaghan and opener Martin Guptill.
McClenaghan picked up four wickets in New Zealand's three-wicket victory in Hamilton on Sunday, but suffered a side strain that has ruled him out for the rest of the three-match series.
Guptill, who scored an unbeaten 27 while playing with a left hamstring strain to guide the hosts to victory, would be sidelined for at least the second match in Napier, New Zealand Cricket said in a statement on Monday.
Rutherford, 23, made his international debut in the Twenty20 series against England earlier this month, which New Zealand lost 2-1.
The 24-year-old swing bowler Southee returns to the national fold after recovering from ligament damage to his left thumb.

Definition - What does Brain Dump mean?
A brain dump is the act of capturing electronically or memorizing the questions and things in an IT certification examination and then recreating almost an exact replica of same, for illegal distribution.
A brain dump violates most of the non-disclosure agreements provided before an IT certification exam. It can result in loss or ban of any IT certifications as it is considered as an illicit tool designed to pass an exam.
Most brain dumps are used in IT certification exams or in other exams, where questions rarely change and the certification expense is high.
A brain dump is not commonly used in exams where the questions are randomly selected.
It is not considered as an legitimate training or a method for preparing resources for a knowledge test.There is no scientific approach involved rather than just memorizing the whole set of question and answers involved.
Memorizing content does not demonstrate the much needed competency in the selected domain. It is not an legitimate exam aid for helping candidates in being successful against the specification odds involved in the exam. There is no quality control in brain dump. There is no reasoning involved while memorizing the answers.
There is no scope of real learning in brain dump. There is no real understanding involved ,which is needed for the subject.
Most certification agreements are broken, if brain dump is used.

CHICAGO — As an army captain assigned in Iraq, Mario Bonifacio experienced the war firsthand. Now, he is in a different battlefield helping Barack Obama get elected president of the United States.
“This is an extremely historic event and I am very proud to be a part of it,” Bonifacio said, referring to the Illinois senator’s candidacy.
Bonifacio is the Regional Field Director of the Obama campaign for the state of New Jersey. He is one of the very few Filipino-Americans with an inside look at the campaign from its early stage. Recently, the campaign also recruited Charmaine Manansala as director of the Asian American Pacific Islanders voter outreach program.
During Obama’s crucial primary campaign in North Carolina, Bonifacio was in the trenches, mobilizing voters as Obama’s regional Get-Out-The-Vote (GOTV) coordinator. The effort paid off with a decisive 14-point victory in the Tar Heel State, cementing Obama’s delegate lead.
On June 3, Obama officially clinched the Democratic nomination, becoming the first African-American major party presidential candidate in the nation’s history.
“It felt very good,” Bonifacio said of Obama’s victory. He said that despite the intense fight between Obama and New York Senator Hillary Clinton, which dragged on for months, the contest was good for the party.
“It was encouraging for the campaign because it included a lot more people in the nominating process,” he said.
“I think people recognize the very serious issues that we face in this election, and I think that it will override any sort of feelings” people had during the primaries, he said.
The California native was not always this political. As the eldest son of an accountant and an engineer, he is good with numbers. In college, he steered clear of politics, instead taking up economics at the University of California at Berkeley.
“I really never had any inclination towards politics, although I always voted,” Bonifacio said.
Half-way through his major, 9/11 happened and it altered the course of his career and outlook in life. The terrorist attack prompted him to sign-up for the ROTC.
Bonifacio’s mother, Marilen, is a native of Manila, while his father, Oscar, is from San Jose City, Nueva Ecija. The Bonifacio family now resides in Orange County, California. His two younger brothers, Jordan and Michael, attend school, while his younger sister, Lauren, lives and works nearby in Los Angeles.
Bonifacio said that joining the military at a time of crisis was his way of expressing his gratitude to the country that welcomed his immigrant parents.
After graduation, he formally joined the Army, and eventually rose up the ranks to become an army captain.
In 2006, at the height of violence in Iraq, he was deployed there. He served as a trainer and liaison to the Iraqi Army, a dangerous assignment, given the fact that he had to interact with former soldiers of Saddam Hussein.
Along the way, he had to fend off hostile fire and evade roadside bombings. Luckily, he wrapped up his tour of duty and returned unscathed.
But it was in Iraq that Bonifacio first realized how decisions in Washington D.C. impacted the execution of the war on terror.
“I came to realize and believe that politicians really affect how I lived my life,” while fighting in Iraq, he said. He cited the deep disconnect between Washington and what was happening in Iraq during his time there.
As soon as he finished his active duty, he began to explore political activism. As a military man, he was a natural fit for Senator John McCain, now the presumptive Republican nominee, who is a decorated Vietnam War hero. Instead, he signed up for the Obama camp on June 4, 2007.
“I never joined the Obama campaign to be against anything,” he stressed. He said that he admired Obama’s support of the GI Bill, and most of all, his position in ending the war in Iraq.
After a short stay in Chicago, where the Obama headquarters is located, Bonifacio was dispatched to Iowa, where the first-in-the-nation caucus was held.
In the dead of Winter of 2007, when “Obama was 20 percent behind in the polls,” Bonifacio put to good use the skills he learned in the military. As a field organizer, he knocked on doors and registered new voters.
Bonifacio credited his military experience for instilling in him the value of discipline, adaptability and leadership, skills that were very useful in his first political work.
“I easily adapted to the early morning wake-up calls and long hours of work,” he said.
At the Hawkeye State, he engaged college students, veterans, farmers, and housewives.
“We kept on talking about Senator Obama and pushing the message. We had a chance to talk to people, and they asked us questions. And after taking a long and fair look at the candidate, they came on board” Bonifacio explained.
He also pointed out that the small Filipino community in Iowa was very receptive of Obama’s candidacy.
As a then 27-year old veteran of the Iraq War, Bonifacio was also an authoritative face in reaching out to the veterans population in Iowa.
On January 3, Obama won Iowa, a state with a 97 percent white population, catapulting him into front of the pack. On the night Obama delivered his victory speech and declared, “We are one nation; we are one people; and our time for change has come” Bonifacio was in the crowd cheering and savoring the victory.
Bonifacio also played a supporting role when Obama made a very strong showing on the night of Super Duper Tuesday. Leading the the February 5 multi-state contest, Bonifacio was assigned at the Chicago headquarters helping coordinate strategy for the campaign’s Latino outreach.
As the campaign enters the general election phase, Bonifacio directly addressed the prevailing skepticism among the Filipino American community towards Obama. He urged them to study the policy differences between Obama and McCain.
“Once they listen to him explain his policies, they will come around,” he said, adding that issues such as immigration, healthcare and education, that are important to the Filipino American voters are top priorities of an Obama administration.

Falls perfectly around the neck like a collar.
Blue Wing Gallery presents this wonderful, eye catching Petite Lily Necklace, inspired by lily flowers. The beautiful colour of the titanium flower is achieved through a heating process, with hammer strokes used to create the shimmering effect. The gold plated brass stamen of the calla lily sits in perfect contrast to the titanium petal and in superb harmony with the sterling silver stem.

Advanced technologies (e.g., virtual and augmented reality) may provide new possibilities to facilitate control room (CR) design and evaluation activities. We studied how immersive three-dimensional (3-D) virtual reality environments may augment and advance the evaluation of safety-critical nuclear power plant CR systems. A multiuser functionality enables several operators to be located and to collaborate in the same virtual CR environment at the same time. There is also a realistic representation of emergency operating procedures in the virtual CR. Spatial audio communication through headsets makes the experience even more realistic. The paper addresses both technical and human factors issues associated with the use of immersive 3-D virtual reality environments in CR validation tests, for example, the amount of technical resources required as compared to normal validation in a real-life physical simulator environment, creation of methodologically new testing opportunities, and new opportunities for data registration and analysis. A new framework has been established for estimating the needed fidelity level of the virtual CR for the type of system evaluation at hand.

Unbreakable - stacking - heavy, glass-like feel - Professional grade polycarbonate that resists scratching and dulling.
At 175g, this glass is heavy for plastic, which gives it a premium feel that cheaper glasses do not have.
It is made slowly, which gives it flawless glass-like clarity.
It is made with professional-grade polycarbonate, so it will resist dulling and scratching much longer than so many glasses.
In our opinion, it is as good as a plastic glass can be.

Everyone gets sugar cravings—even Kate Middleton. Knowing some, er, sweet, sugar substitutes is key for keeping the tell-tell signs from appearing all over your face, but wouldn’t it also help to have sugar servings more clearly called out on nutrition labels?
Well yes, and that’s exactly what the U.S. Food and Drug Administration intends to do with its newly approved nutrition label design requirements—which will call out “added sugars” for the first time, it was announced today.
The label changes will go into effect in mid-2018. And coming just a year after the government issued limits on sugar intake for the first time, it seems like Dr. Frank Lipman’s “sugar is the devil” mantra may have made it to DC.
Manufacturers also will no longer to be able to get away with listing “evaporated cane juice” (the term many brands have been using to label sweeteners) on the label instead of sugar—due to a final ruling in a case that has been debated since 2009, according to FoodNavigator.
Serving size requirements have also changed to be a better indicator of what people are more likely to eat—so you may get sticker shock if your favorite yogurt has claimed that there were three servings per package (and they display smaller sugar and calorie counts per serving as a result).
Now, in most cases, the serving size will be the size of the whole package—a huge shift considering many companies have worked around that to market their goods as healthier than they really are.
On hand today applauding the move? Our super fit, healthy eating, SoulCycle-loving First Lady, of course.
Having a total freakout moment over sugar? Find out if you’re addicted without even knowing it. But fear not: here’s a whole guide to natural sweeteners.

Bengawan Solo was founded in 1979 by Tjendri Anastasia, originally from Indonesia. Anastasia came to Singapore where she met her husband, Johnson Liew. After getting married, Anastasia's interest in Indonesian delicacies continued in the little home kitchen of her HDB flat. Gradually, word of the existence of her tasty goodies got around, and, before she knew it, orders for her cakes and kueh came rolling in. Her home-made specialties even made it onto the shelves of some supermarkets and emporiums, albeit produced without a food manufacturing licence.
When officials from the Ministry of Environment finally caught up with her and her unlicenced food production, she was warned and instructed to stop her home baking business. The incident turned out to be a blessing in disguise as it led to Anastasia's decision to set up the very first Bengawan Solo Cake Shop in Marine Terrace.

President Barack Obama was slated to meet Tuesday with executives from leading technology companies, including Google, Microsoft and Apple, to solicit suggestions on the federal health care exchange website. The impact of federal surveillance efforts on those companies' customers is also expected to come up.
President Obama will meet executives from leading technology companies like Google and Apple on Tuesday to discuss ways to improve the federal health care exchange website, the White House said. An Obama administration official said the meeting would cover capacity issues with the site, HealthCare.gov, which has not worked well since its Oct. 1 rollout. Many people face a Dec. 23 deadline to sign up in order to have insurance on Jan. 1 (12/16).
Now that the Obamacare website is functional, the administration has called the tech honchos to Washington. The White House paints President Barack Obama’s huddle with tech company leaders on Tuesday as a chat headlining HealthCare.gov progress and ways the government can fix federal IT. But the Silicon Valley heavyweights, which include Google, Microsoft, Apple, Facebook and Twitter, appear more likely to highlight another issue on the administration’s agenda -- federal surveillance efforts and the impact on their companies (Meyers, 12/17).
President Obama will meet with more than a dozen big-named tech CEOs on Tuesday to discuss cybersecurity and the failures of the Obamacare website. In attendance will be Apple CEO Tim Cook, Chairman Eric Schmidt, Facebook Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg, Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer and Netflix CEO Reed Hastings among others. A White House official said they will discuss how the tech sector can help the government avoid IT screw-ups like the healthcare.gov website rollout. They will also talk about national security and the impact of "unauthorized intelligence disclosures" (Goldman, 12/16).

Members of Council or members of the staff of the University will not be eligible to be nominated for the award while in office.
The honorary title of Emeritus Professor may be conferred upon retired academic staff holding the title of Professor who has given distinguished service to the institution. A period of service of at least five years, or otherwise at the discretion of the Vice Chancellor, is required for a person to be eligible for consideration by the Committee.
Nomination may be informed by factors such as teaching and research leadership and performance (including end-user engagement, impact and recognition).
Nominations for the honorary title of Emeritus Professor will only be made upon the invitation of the Vice Chancellor. The Senior Management Group will (at its meetings) discuss nominations that may become subject of an invitation by the Vice Chancellor.
If appropriate the Award shall be recommended to Council by the Governance and Nominations Committee for approval.
Conferral of the honorary title of Emeritus Professor will occur when the academic staff member retires or leaves the employ of the University.
The title will not normally be conferred upon an academic staff member who resigns from the University to take up a post at another University except in special circumstances such as appointment as Vice Chancellor, Deputy Vice Chancellor or Pro Vice Chancellor at another University.
An honorary award is a means by which the University publically recognises eminence and distinction.
An honorary award is not a qualification that is recognised by the Australian Qualifications Framework and as such the title 'Doctor' should not be used by those who hold an honorary award.
All notification documentation issued to the recipient will specify that the award is honorary.
Following its deliberations the Committee will inform Council of its recommendations at the next available Council meeting. Council will discuss the recommendations of the Committee prior to making a final decision on the award. Recipients will not be contacted prior to the final decision of Council.
A Committee of Council will be convened by the Chancellor as required to consider recommendations for the conferral of the title of Doctor of the University (DUniv), University Fellow (FUniSA) and Emeritus Professor.
All Honorary Awards and Emeritus Professor nominations must be endorsed by the Senior Management Group prior to being referred to the Committee.
A quorum of the Committee is constituted by four (4) members and the Chancellor and/or appointed member of Council must be present.
Membership and terms of Council member’s appointments will be as determined by Council.
The committee shall submit its recommendations, if any, to Council for consideration in confidence.
The Committee may request any additional information that it deems appropriate to assist it with its deliberations.
The Committee may, following its deliberations, vary the award made from that recommended in the nomination.
All nominations are strictly confidential and the full details of the nominations, including the names of those submitting them, remain confidential. The names of those candidates approved by the Governance and Nominations Committee are released only after they have accepted the Council’s offer of award.
Any person nominated for an Honorary Award shall not be consulted beforehand (not at any time prior to the Council’s decision of the proposal) and all deliberations, investigations and recommendations relating to the nomination shall be treated as strictly confidential by all persons concerned.
All nominations are to be submitted to the Council Secretary.
The Committee may request the provision of references in addition to the information provided in the required nomination forms. The Committee may also seek additional external information if deemed necessary to assist it with its decision making. This may result in applications being delayed until the Committee believes that it has the information it requires to conclude its decision.
If Council resolves to grant an Honorary Award, a formal letter of offer will be made to the candidate as soon as possible following the Council meeting. This letter will include advice about any entitlements arising from the Award.
The Council Secretary will also advise the University’s Graduation Officer of the names of recipients so that arrangements can be made for formal conferral of the honorary title(s) at an appropriate graduation ceremony.
All Honorary Awards will be conferred at a graduation ceremony of the University. At the graduation ceremony recipients of Doctor of the University (DUniv) will normally wear the Doctorate Gown. Recipients of the titles of University Fellow (FUniSA) and Emeritus Professor will normally wear the academic dress prescribed for their highest award.

€10. You will however have to pay €5 for withdrawals of less than €50.
24 hours for Vera John to prepare, plus the payment processor’s time. In total it varies from 1 day to 5 days.
VISA, direct transfers to bank accounts through Trustly, Neteller, Skrill and Paysafecard.
Vera John offers the same combination of payout methods that most others do. Specifically at Vera John, however, it is important to be informed of the €50 rule. With a bit of planning it’s not that hard to make sure that you will avoid withdrawing amounts under €50, but you should try not to forget it.
When the withdrawals exceeds €2000 in a short period of time, Vera John will look to verify the identity of the player. It is then important to, for instance, have the same address written on the casino account as you have for your VISA Card and your bank.
It is also possible to avoid frustration here by being careful from the beginning.
What payout method fits you the best depends on who you are and how you play. Generally, it can be said that it is easier if you choose the same method for deposits as for payouts, and keep that consistent.
A very easy way to get access to your bank account is to use Trustly. You don’t have to preregister anything here, you just go to the payout page at the casino, choose Trustly and then click on your bank. Then, you have to first identify yourself and later verify the transaction using your Internet banking codes, etc., the same way as when you pay bills. An advantage here is that you can choose among all your accounts, not just the transaction account. With this method, you don’t have to have money in different piles for different purposes. The same goes for VISA, of course, which is also easy and familiar for most people.
There are, of course, those who wish to separate their money, and then electronic wallets and virtual prepaid systems work perfectly fine. If you think that sounds like a good fit, you should go to the webpages of Neteller, Skrill and Paysafecard, where you can compare their conditions and costs. Transfering money between the casino and an electronic wallet usually goes very fast.

As a long-term reader of SEN and a CCTV installer, I get the feeling you’re not in favour of wide angle lenses because of their negative characteristics. Are there conditions in which wide angle lenses are ideal?
A CAMERA lens is ideal if it gives court admissible evidence such as face recognition, from the front to the rear of its assigned target area. Every lens is a double-edged sword. Long focal lengths concentrate pixels and give lovely compression at huge distances but you can rob some poor soul under the camera’s nose and it will not see you.
A wide lens has a tiny hyperfocal distance and for half the distance on the lens side of hyperfocal and all the way past hyperfocal to infinity, everything in the scene will be more or less in focus. However, the wide lens will spread pixels and this means that from a relatively close depth of field – say 12 metres – you may lose fine detail like faces, tattoos, shoe designs and other details investigators love. This is the anguish of lensing but you can manage your way around this.
Scentre Group, the manager of Westfield shopping centres, spends serious money on cameras for the entrances of its stores and then economises a little in other areas. It does so because once you can associate faces and clothing in high resolution, it’s possible to do it elsewhere in lower res to create an investigative trail that is thoroughly court admissible.
