The City of Hamilton is working on an Air Quality and Climate Change Strategic Plan and a Greenhouse Gas inventory. The City recently held a Climate Change Town Hall and you can view some of the results at their web page and see a video of the presentations made. Hamilton Climate Champions are working to encourage specific community projects for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Clean Air Hamilton is a multi-stakeholder group dedicated to improving air quality in Hamilton's community. The group is committed to improving citizens' health and quality of life through communication and promotion of realistic, science-based decision-making and sustainable practices. The International Panel on Climate Change 0000 Synthesis report summarizes the findings of the Panel; given its publication date, and the cycle of data collection, analysis, writing and peer review that goes into a report such as this, much of the actual data is older than 0000. Many believe that impacts have in fact been faster than expected in the 0000 report. The NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies research emphasizes a broad study of global climate change.

For the past couple of years, my husband and I have not exchanged traditional, wrapped-and-Christmas-bowed gifts. Instead, we plan an experience. We started our anti-Stuff celebrations because neither of us could think of a gift we truly wanted. Then we'd each be scrambling to think of something, anything, since not giving a box with a bow was unacceptable. This way, the pressure is off, and we create memories of fabulous meals and trips to vineyards, instead of piling up Stuff to fulfill a gift requirement. I'm not against traditional gifts, especially if you know it's something the recipient will use or enjoy. But if you are at a loss for the hard-to-buy-for loved ones on your list, consider an anti-Stuff gift of consumables or experiences. Why? Easier than picking something that comes down to personal taste, such as perfumes, sweaters, knickknacks, etc. Word of warning: make sure the gift is something the recipient would enjoy or something in which he or she has expressed interest, not something you like or think he or she should like! That holds true with any sort of gift-giving. Basket of consumables from the farmers' market. I've made baskets filled with locally-made items such as jam, jelly, biscotti, granola, chocolate, honey, coffee, salsa, vinegar, and olive oil. Cooking classes. There are classes on everything from knife skills to sushi rolling to creating Tuscan feasts. Wine and cheese pairing class. Bonus points if it's held at a gorgeous vineyard. Zip-line tour. Send the adrenaline junkie on your list flying through the trees. Kayaking lessons. Paddling is a great way to enjoy the local lakes and rivers. Cave tour. Give the gift of a tour or a special event. Some caves host dinner and a concert, all underground. Horseback riding. A day on a dude ranch is a nice way to get back to nature. Gift certificates to the local "artsy" movie theater. They'll get to see the indie flicks without having to wait for the DVD release. A museum membership. Members typically receive perks such as unlimited admission, invitations to previews of exhibitions, a discount at the museum's store, and invitations to special events. Dance lessons. Just make sure you know if your recipient is a belly dancer at heart or more of the foxtrot-type. Tickets to a performance. If it's a date-specific event, you'll need to be sneaky to make sure the recipient will be available, but tickets to concerts, plays, and other performances are memorable gifts. Music lessons. If your brother has always wanted to channel his inner Jimi Hendrix, indulge the fantasy with a few guitar lessons. A round of golf. If their sport costs money, buy them some time on the green, at the batting cages, or wherever the sport is enjoyed. Tickets to a sporting event. One year I bought my husband tickets to a Dallas Cowboys football game for his birthday. I was living in an apartment complex owned by Jerry Jones, owner of the Dallas Cowboys. Tenants could purchase tickets to the game, including seats on a chartered bus to drive us the three hours to the stadium. Lessons in their preferred activity. Find out what they like to do and where they do it. Inquire about lessons. Art lessons. Sewing, knitting, sculpture, painting, drawing, photography, stained glass...there's no end to types of art classes. Gardening gifts. Seeds, herbs, perennials, saplings, and bushes make great gifts for loved ones with green thumbs. Spa services. Massages are appreciated by most people, especially if they are hunched over a computer or on their feet all day. Foot massages and pedicures are good options for those who aren't comfortable with full-body massages. A night at a nearby bed and breakfast. Only for those who have been very good this year! This approach isn't for everyone. I think children should get to enjoy tearing open a gift and having a few things to play with right away, rather than being told it's a gift that will be a blast...later. But I'd venture to say there are probably a few people on your list who would prefer a thoughtful, anti-Stuff gift that reflects their interests and doesn't have to be stored, dusted, or worse, guiltily tossed in a Goodwill bin. What do you think about anti-Stuff gifts? What types of consumable or experiential gifts are on your wish list? J.D.'s note: For those concerned about the cost of these suggestions, be sure to check out last year's list of homemade Christmas gifts. There are 00 reader responses to "The Anti-Stuff Holiday Gift Guide". Great article April! We are currently trying to pay off debt and have talked about this type of Christmas this year. We want to do something special together that we will remember for a lifetime vs. something that will just fill up our closet. Thanks for the great ideas! For parents, often the gift of time is the most precious. A day off from the kids, alone, to do whatever you want to do can be a great gift! I would love to do this, but my family (both on my side and my SO's side) is all about the "stuff" during the holidays. The habit to give lots of "stuff" is so ingrained in my SO (he prefers quantity to quality on top of that, like his own family) that his feelings get hurt when I tell him that I don't want "stuff." I try not to give too much "stuff" either, but that hasn't always been successful because apparently everyone wants "stuff" and likes to give "stuff," so I try to oblige and be graceful on both fronts. I hate the holidays because I'm tired of fighting the anti-stuff battle with everyone every year, so now I simply budget for it, expect to waste a bit of money, and go with the flow. These days, keeping the family peace is more important than insisting on "no stuff" since no one listens anyway. And I don't feel guilty about tossing stuff in the Goodwill bin anymore. Nice post! I completely agree. Unless there is something specific I know to buy, I love getting my family tickets to sporting events, concerts, or the ballet (depending on the person). I have been told that this is a good gift because it's like telling someone you love that you want to spend another whole day with them in the future. I've been trying to come up with ideas for anit-stuff gift exchanges for the adults in the extended family. We live in a fairly small town, and some involved come from 000-000 miles away to participate. I love the idea of experience gifts but find it difficult with the travel time that would be required for most. I thought maybe I'd suggest a big combined blowout for father's day instead of Christmas including maybe a baseball game and Omaha steaks on the grill. We'll see how the family reacts to that. I really like this idea. My family has been decreasing material gift giving over the years and I have definitely started thinking more about experiences that I want to have rather than things I want to have. Thanks for the awesome tips! One more that might be good is charity giving - give money to a charity in the name of someone else. Zoo memberships are great for a family (especially if you live somewhere they are open all year). My MIL gave us one last year and its been great, it even includes parking so throwing the kids in the car and going to the zoo for an hour is very doable (rather than trying to make it a whole day event and everyone getting tired and cranky!). Last year for my parents we made a donation to buy a family in need a sheep and two chickens from World Vision. And for my brothers we gave them a monthly subscription to our own little cookie club. We don't live nearby, so every month we mail them a dozen cookies. Speaking of which, I need to get to the post office. These are terrific gift ideas that I can use this holiday season! I think it's much better than buying a family member a gift he/she won't necessarily use. I also agree with the kids still getting gifts that they can enjoy right then and there. Although, I've been known to give bond certificates that that can't appreciate at the moment, but their parents appreciate. So I'll usually buy a little gift for the kids to go along with their bond. I wholeheartedly agree with this article. I personally would MUCH rather go somewhere and do something than get another gift that I probably will not use. My husband is ridiculously hard to buy for. He's an electronics junkie, and I gave up on buying him anything like that a long time ago; as soon as he gets one thing a newer more updated version comes out & it's frustrating for the gift giver. For our anniversary one year, I took us to Asheville, NC one weekend & we spent time at the Biltmore & other areas around town. That was a great time. This year when he asked what I wanted for the holidays, I said that I'd rather us do something together because I honestly can't think of anything. This year we're giving Goats, Chickens, etc to our family. Actually we're giving them through World Vision to people who need them in honor of our family. The best gifts are a combination of usefulness, thoughtfulness, and immediate impact. Useful, because-like you mentioned-it won't sit around on a shelf gathering dust. The friend will actually use it. Whether it's a physical tool or a membership of some sort, the gift brings genuine value into their life, and they utilize it to improve whatever it is they're doing (or would like to learn to do). Thoughtful, because it shows you care (cue cheesy music). Seriously though, the friend gets a sense that you really know them, what they like, what they are interested in. It's not a generic gift but something the friend cares about. Not just any food gift, but a specific country, region, or style of cooking the friend loves or wants to learn how to make. Immediate impact, because we're all kids, no matter what our age says. We like to tear open fun stuff, and have something to hold and look at it. Just walking up to your friend and telling them their gift starts on Monday, or to check their email to confirm lessons, doesn't maximize the impact of the gift. But present your non-tangible (if that's the case) gift in a visually-exciting way, and the smile is immediately formed on the face. There's a reason some places offer to give gift cards packaged in a themed and exciting way. Great post, and great ideas. We really try to have experiences with our kids as opposed to stuff and doing the same for adults is just as great. Thanks for some good ideas. Our family looks on the positive side of stuff instead of banning it altogether. We make lists so that we know the recipient wants the item. Most of the items we give and receive are useful items. We will often delay purchases of things we need to replace that are not urgent so that they can be given for the holiday season. Some examples of "stuff" we have exchanged and still love and use all the time: pizza stone, chef's knife, winter socks, wallet, messenger bag, tupperware, expansions for much-loved and played board games, circular saw, shower curtain, and more that I can't think about. If we are not sure what someone likes and we would like to give them a gift, we give them homemade fudge or cookies or chocolate covered pretzels that we dip ourselves. But, with most people, if we are close enough to give them a gift, we are close enough to ASK THEM what they want as a gift. It's funny, I was just noticing a few of the usual crap-no-one-needs holiday gifts appearing in stores, and the thought process they use to market incredible junk is the same in that you have some sort of superficial classification or hobby for the recipient, and need to get them something... What can you get the "foodie" who has everything? Newly invented junk! If you notice some newly invented affordable but marginally useful piece of junk for "the foodie" this year, try to resist. The worst new junk has to be the stuff for "the student" and "the techie." Stuff that is marketed mostly to fulfill a desire to get a gift for everyone- gaarrgh! I forgot "the husband." Junk created for Xmas gifts for the hubbie is usually good for a chuckle. @stevesliva-Good point. As a foodie myself, the last thing I want is a specialized kitchen gadget that does one thing and gets used twice a year. Most gadgets don't do anything that a chef's knife can't do. The thing to give foodies is food! Either as consumables or as an experience. I am totally with you. We have switched from buying things for each other to spending good quality time with each other a while ago. I think this also leads to less fights within the family, which I believe is a general problem during the holidays. When you focus on each other rather than the potential disappointment in an inadequate gift, you will most likely collect good memories of the holidays. I love gifts that do not have to be "stored" and are used up. As long as it's not a restaurant that is so far away it becomes impractical (my uncle and his wife do this every year to us). I would also much rather spend a few days on a mini-vacation with loved ones than wrapping presents for them and opening another sweater. Unless I have an exact idea of a "thing" someone on my list wants, they get gift cards or tickets or the like. Great ideas to create a new paradigm for Christmas (or is it going back to an old paradigm?) Would love to have great Christmas *memories* rather than a pile of forgettable Christmas *stuff*. A good gift for a baptism, Kiva Certifacate. Kiva Is a nonprofit lending organization where people can choose a person from a third world nation that is trying to start up a small business to lend money to. I think this is a great gift because it is somthing the parents can do right away and as the kid gets older and they can choose who to make a loan to when previous loans were repaid. All great ideas. If you have to give gifts, make sure that it's something that the person wants. My siblings & I, along w/our SOs, exchange names to cut down on the gifts (and money spending), and a list is a requirement. My BF suggested that we not buy gifts for each other this year. Instead, since I work for an airline & can fly for free, we're taking a day trip to Washington DC - all it will cost is metro fare & food, since the museums are free. He's never been to DC and it's been 00+ years since I've been there, so I'm sure it will be a memorable experience. On the other hand, experience gifts can be just as unappreciated as any other. I once gave a museum membership (in the town where they live) to my brother and his family, but that didn't mean they used it: and I should have realized that it wasn't a really good gift, since I do know them well enough to know that camping or gardening supplies would be things that they would really like. Similarly, I have been given gift certificates for massages and pedicures that I've never used; those just aren't things I find fun or relaxing or a good experience. Maybe if you don't know a person well enough to buy something they like (or you're not willing to buy what they would really appreciate!) then maybe there shouldn't be a gift exchange. Because my husband and I are in a better financial situation than some of our relatives, we regularly give gifts to people from whom we know won't be giving gifts to us. And that feels just fine (we even keep on giving gifts to the younger folks even without a thank you note - up to high school age, we figure it's their parents who should be monitoring that, and if they don't, well, why punish the kids...). And sometimes someone gives one of us a gift we didn't expect - when that happens we don't think we are suddenly required to reciprocate; grateful thanks for the thoughtfulness is enough, I think. We definitely want to do something along the lines of this for my parents-in-law, who have moved closer and downsized. The last thing they need is more stuff, unless it is something readily "consumable". Ironically my husband and I have hinted quite a few times really what my husband and I would like is simply time off together, even to watch a movie (i.e. a iou "I will watch the kids one evening") but no dice. If we get a sitter it costs 00-000 and so it is a gift that is most appreciated. Along the same lines as babysitting for someone with kids, I sometimes give iou's for chores I know someone hates doing, or a gift certificate where it can be done. For example, this year my siblings and I are combining gifts for my dad to get his two dogs groomed, because they shed like crazy and fight him on getting bathed and brushed. Out of the four kids, none of us are really home at times when the dogs most need grooming (when they shed heavily in the spring). Giving him a way to get them groomed elsewhere also means he won't have two wet dogs hanging around the house the whole day! I've also given friends "A day of cleaning" and let them pick out what things around the apartment they least like doing. Maybe they don't mind vacuuming but hate cleaning the bathroom (or vice versa). Another thought for anti-stuff - donations to a person's favorite charity, in their name. My husband and I started this several years ago, as our parents have what they need and buy what they want. My mom LOVED it - and has passed on the practice within her circle as well. After cleaning out 00 years of accumulated stuff in preparation for an interstate move, we vowed to truly focus on experience rather than stuff. Goodwill benefitted, but isn't it a shame to just keep a bunch of stuff you never use or really needed in the first place? I also like giving subscriptions: magazine, netflix, game sites, gift of the month clubs... giving something people can enjoy all year long. My boyfriend and I keep extensive (like 0-0 pages, single-spaced) lists of things that we want as gifts. They are organized into categories - electronics, books, DVDs, movies, clothes, experiences, food, etc. We give edited versions of these lists to friends and family we know will be buying us presents to ensure we get exactly what we want. When applicable, sizes and URLs for buying the things online are included. i love your posts, April! i hate storing stuff that i don't use, but not all experiences are enjoyable either. i hate going to discos and clubs where people smoke so much but i would appreciate a good book or a building kit (robotics, electronics, models, crafts etc) anytime! I love the idea of Zoo passes/museum passes. I have both and they are not only good for the locality issued, but because I travel quite a bit, they are good at many locations across the country for either free or discounted admissions. (I can get into Phoenix or columbus zoo for half price with my pass) I can use my Arboretum pass to get in free at the local botanical garden. since both my kids live out of state I try to buy them things that ship or pack easily, but also give thought to what they want or what they would use. While I really like the article, I do find it somewhat sad that it needs to be said at all. Isn't this how people usually give gifts? It's how my family has always given gifts. I'm confused. Our exchanges are not solely items like tickets, but the gifts are never "stuff", they are items that have either been requested/hinted at, or are items that the giver knows the recipient will love and use. It's only "stuff" if it's never loved or used. It's not a Christmas item, but for my mom's birthday and Mother's Day, I clean her ovens. She hasn't had to do it in years. I do it as a surprise-I live in the same town and do it when she and my dad are at a movie or something, but sometime around those times of year. These are all great ideas. However, almost all of them are extremely expensive. I very much want to give (and receive) gifts that don't clutter up the home, but I also don't want to be spending thousands of dollars on my gift giving. You mentioned food baskets and movie tickets which are within most people's budgets. How about something along the lines of a cooking lesson from you instead of a cooking school? One thing that I have done over the past few years was to a take an $000 restaurant gift certificate that had been a gift, (seriously - it was over the top!) and have the restaurant split it in half, which meant we could give a $00 gift certificate away and still have a dinner out ourselves. My husband's family takes the romance out of gift giving, but makes sure that everyone gets exactly what the want/need. Like a new winter coat, power tool or beautiful wool slippers that will last for years. They send each other links for the exact item, size, & color, and that is exactly what they get. They generally keep requests under $000. I don't love the practice, but it never feels bad to get the books/sweater/shoes you've been wanting. I've been trying to make gifts for friends & family - I made beef stock from scratch & froze it, potted bulbs or tomato plants, and this year I want to make dog biscuits for the dog lovers. I love the idea of giving and experience rather than gifts and I try to do that on birthdays. If I gave everyone an experience gift or gift card to a spa on Xmass my budget would be way over the top. Sometimes it is cheaper to give an actual gift that you know someone will like and won't inflate the Xmass budget. One that I haven't seen mentioned yet: my DH and I usually are able to find some item that we both want and use the money we would have otherwise spent on gifts. One year it was a PVR, another year we combined it with other gift money we had received and bought an iMac, etc. Basically, items which are splurges. Plus, because it's by agreement, we can wait until after Christmas and take advantage of Boxing Day sales, if appropriate. This is something I can relate to. I never liked stuff. I just didn't. Stuff just creates clutter and usually leaves no memories. I am all about creating experiences. Memorable experiences last forever and add much more to our lives than things. Gifting an experience is much more memorable. For example, my girlfriend took hot air ballooning for my birthday! It was awesome! I will remember it forever! I am not saying that gifting useful and thoughtful things is a bad idea, but most people gift things that people don't need or want. Let's us create experiences for our loved ones and let us declutter the world and our minds one experience at a time! I love the idea of experiences instead of stuff, but please make sure that the person is actually going to be able to enjoy the experience. Years ago, my MIL gave me a certificate to a very expensive spa, that I could use to get a massage or facial, but I never used it. First, it was hard for me to schedule an appointment, because I couldn't find anybody to watch my children. So, if you're giving theater or movie tickets to parents, maybe an additional gift could be a babysitting night so the parents can actually go and enjoy the movie. Also, when I looked up the prices for the spa, it turned out that all the prices were above that amount on the certificate, so I would have ended up having to pay extra to get any of their services. I'm sorry to say that the certificate went unused, because I hate to waste money, but it just didn't work into my lifestyle. I thought this post could use more pictures, so I just added a bunch. If I'd thought about it, I would have worked with April to find photos for all of the ideas. I think they're great! I agree. Last year we were struggling to figure out what my father-in-law would like for a christmas. What can you give someone who can practically buy anything he wants, anytime he wants. Then I remembered introducing him to a vocal trio called the Puppini Sisters, and my wife just found out that they were going to be in town early the following year (0000). We bought him 0 tickets so he can bring his wife and two other friends. What a bonus, because the "two other friends" ended up to be me and my wife because the couple they invited could not come. Seeing my in-laws having a blast was priceless. This year I will be giving the gift of a chartered fishing trip... I paid for the charter, and am giving it to my husband, my brother-in-law, my father-in-law, and my father..... it worked out to be the right price for a half-day trip....they can all go together and have the gift of a day spent together on a great boat on Lake Michigan! These are great tips. Unfortunately, my family doesn't go anywhere or do anything, so I'm stuck buying ‘stuff.' I tell my parents to get my husband and I gift certs or something, because our tastes are so different, but they are of the ‘I need to buy things to buy things and have things for you under the tree' mentality and it has been very hard for me to break out of that mentality as a grownup. I still love buying lots of *things* but only when I know it will have meaning or use for the recipient. We'll see how this year goes! Experiences are where it's at. If I had a foodie friend, instead of putting together a basket I would get a gift card to the local gourmet/chef's supply emporium and suggest we could go together. Most of us in my city have only a few chances a year to find an afternoon to spend together ... sometimes it's hard just to find an afternoon to spend with DH! Recently we went to a chef's supply store, had brunch in their cafe, then spent a very entertaining hour browsing and shopping. Not only did we find a couple of tools we'd been looking for (like an oyster knife), we found some gourmet food items that let us carry that experience over. For the rest of the family we can exchange anything homemade or recycled (thrift store, etc.) or nothing at all....usually there are beeswax candles, wine (winemakers in the family), food, plants, etc. But this year I am thinking about getting California State Park passes for everyone since we all like to hike and the state needs the funds so they don't close the parks! This is a wonderful post full of great ideas for all types of people. Re theater tickets: we gave each of our daughter's a night out at a Broadway show (alone with Mom - a treat in itself) and presented it with a wrapped CD of the show music. We have gotten an unbelievable amount of mileage from those tickets - which, granted, were expensive. By the way - we bought a $00 program at the show as a souvenir, and that was also a great investment. I can't even count the times they have taken those out and read them and sang to them and talked about the show and showed them to friends and brought them to school. I'd like to warm people against the alcohol "of the month" clubs. I got my husband a year of the microbrew of the month, and it was a logistical nightmare. In the summer the beer was skunked, in winter it was frozen. There was an "adult signature required" sticker on the box in plain sight, and still Fed Ex would dump it on the porch with no warning. One box went missing, and we're pretty sure the neighbor kids stole it. We decided it wasn't worth the legal risk, and will never do it again. This reminds me of a funny story that happened to us....years ago we had signed up for a quarterly wine club, adult signature required for delivery, yadda yadda. I love the idea but I am also with the poster (#00) that mentioned the majority of these gifts are very expensive especially when you're talking about extended family. So, I'll take the somewhat opposing view and side with stuff. See, I think "stuff" has a bad name and that's not fair. Everyone enjoys stuff if you take the time to buy OR MAKE things you know they will appreciate and use. This does require time and planning though and most people just don't care about that sort of thing. Really, it shouldn't be Anti-Stuff it should be Anti-Meaningless/Useless. Some people mentioned the "romance of gift-giving" and I appreciate that. For instance, I maintain a wish list on Amazon but, and I stress this every time I reluctantly admit I have one to my friends and family, it's a guide to things I like not the end-all of what exactly to get me. I put a lot of effort into the things I buy my friends and family and always get great feedback on them. My family started a tradition of a yankee swap for the adults (and the kids still get gifts). We set a price each year $00, and get one gift that most people would enjoy (or we can get a gift for a specific person but they don't necessarily get to keep it). So we wrap the present and put it in the middle of the room, and draw numbers. Who ever gets number one pick a present from the pile and opens it. From the next person has five minutes to decide if they want to steal the present already opened or pick another present from the pile. This goes on until the last person in the group picks. When someone takes your gift, you get the option to take from someone else or go back to the gift pile. Its a lot of fun, and saves everyone some $$ if there is a large family. @Kristy (00) - I wholeheartedly agree with your grad student suggestions. Both my partner and I are grad students and we would love something as easy as a coffee gift certificate - whether from a national chain or a local one (all our family lives 0000+ miles from us). Some people might think this was a boring or unthoughful gift, but since we try not to spend too much money on coffee out, but still love to go and do work at coffee shops, it would be perfect. Same with bookstore gift certs - whether for an academic book or something fun - even though this isn't really an experience gift, though we both do love wandering a bookstore for a while, esp. with the luxury of having a bit of money to spend at the end. Also, this isn't exactly an experience gift either, but it kind of is by default of distance - last year my brother and SIL made a calendar featuring photos of their adorable bulldog. My SIL dressed him up in all sorts of seasonal outfits and then created the calendar with those photos - we love it and have it in our kitchen. Since they're so far away, its fun to have a bit of them with us all year long. I'm *totally* drinking the Kool-Aid on this concept! My brother and I are trying to slowly change our family's mindset on physical gift giving. Last year, we did a gag-gift "white elephant" exchange. Nobody receives anything of material value, but everyone enjoys hours of laughter and great memories of spending time with each other. One exception to the rule: I have started a tradition of giving calendars with my own photography on it. For me, it allows me to share my joy and passion of photography with others. It's useful, hand-made, and relatively cheap (~$00/calendar). FedEx Office and Shutterfly are two places that have done a wonderful job on these calendars. Agree with Stephanie (#00) and Kristy (#00) - coffee is always the perfect gift for a student. A study basket is even better! What a great post! Some of my extended family members are simply doing a gift card exchange (with $00 gift cards) this year because it's so hard to buy for people. Then people can go out and get what they want. And I often do a lot of homemade gifts. They're useful and inexpensive. Last year our budget was very tight for Christmas, so I made some homemade hot chocolate mix (tons of recipes online) and packed it into nice, decorated mason jars for our friends. It was a hit! One warning to those considering buying a gift for gardeners: I am a gardener, and sometimes I receive plants as gifts and don't have a good spot to put them in my yard. If you have an idea of what plants the recipient could actually use, that would help. I seem to be the odd one out on this, but if someone gave to a charity in my name, I would probably never speak to that person again. I am extremely particular what I support and none of my family knows who they are. Now, if giftgivers know someone is ok with that type of gift, it is a different story. Just don't assume that a donation will please someone. uh, ok wolfgirl, i guess you're really particular. Unless it was a charity to drown kittens (or something equally horrible) i don't think i'd be so angry at a person for donating in my name, even if you don't support that charity they at least tried to do a good thing. I have given both dinner gift certificates (with included babysitting) and massage/spa treatment gift certificates, both went over very well. As for myself, last year I told everyone that I wanted to take cooking classes, and said that if they didn't know what to get me, money to go toward the classes would be great. All my siblings and my mother-in-law gave toward the cause, and I don't think that any of them were affronted that I asked for money. I made sure to gush about the cooking classes in my thank you note, so that they understood that I really appreciated the gift. I've been doing this for years already, even when my children were small. I've given gift cards to local movie theaters for families of employees, with gift cards for soda and popcorn. I've taken my parents out to dinners and shows. This year, husband and I will see a Broadway show (we live in metro NYC) instead of getting tangible gifts. But if this is about financial sense, why spend money on something that's gone in an instant, an hour or a day? Thanks for the great ideas. My mind is spinning with ideas of how to make this year's Christmas much more "experience" oriented! I love these ideas! Both the combination of a fun event or activity in lieu of a gift as well as the "no clutter" idea!! My favorite family Christmas tradition is Bingo where there's very little money spent up front, loads of laughs, every single person can participate, and we're all enjoying time together. Nothing can beat it! My wife and I needlessly exchanged gifts at Christmas virtually for no other reason than to say we exchanged gifts. The gifts we gave were hardly necessities, probably some of them weren't even wanted. We finally came to our senses and realized we could spend all the money in the world on each other and it wouldn't bring us closer to one another. Since then, we give each other the gift of time. There is nothing more precious in either one of our lives, so each Christams, we plan dates throughout the year that come hell or high water, we will spend those dates together. My husband and I haven't exchanged Christmas gifts in over 0 years. But, we do have a Christmas budget; and use the money that we would have spent on each other to make a very nice donation to our favorite charitable organizations. We still get the joy of giving, plus we know that our gift is needed and appreciated. Excellent post, and wonderful comments! My siblings and I have a fun tradition. Each of us picks a charity, and the others make a donation to it in our honor. I love it!! My husband and I also give gifts to a child or two from our local giving tree. Like Cara, I have in-laws who are all about the stuff. They seem to take it personally if I say I don't want any THINGS. In the interest of family harmony, I've decided to drop it. I'm not good with Christmas gifts because in my family, Christmas was "Ki's Day", just like there is Mother's Day and Father's Day. In other words, parents would give something to their kids, and that's it (and the kids would give something on Mother's and Father's Day). Since I don't have children, giving Christmas gift just feels completely weird to me. Now that I'm married, I let my husband do most of the giving because it still feels awkward and unnatural to me. Of course, it feels just as weird receiving gifts from people who aren't my parents (I don't even receive gifts from my parents anymore since I'm not a kid anymore). And I have to say I'm not the type to like giving something because it's the proper time to. When I see something a friend or family would enjoy, I get it for them right away. It could be December, I'm still not going to wait until Christmas to give it to them. Anyway, I realise my personal experience is different from most. And I do think the gifts you mentionned really are great ieas that people would enjoy more than gifts that were bought because "you gotta buy something". I do agree with what someone else said though, that most of these are kinda expensive, and might not be in everyone's budget (especially if you need to get one for everyone you know). Great article, some useful alternative ideas. BTW where did you get the picture of the cat? it's a spitting image of my moggy, Milo! For well over a year my husband (I really dislike the term ‘DH') and kids, along with my sister and her family, have been wanting to take my Mom to a dinner and a Broadway show (she went through treatment for colon cancer). So last year, she wasn't up to it due to the chemo. Several other times we tried to get together (sis lives 0 and 0/0 hours north of us and mom lives 0 and 0/0 hours south of us), but since my sister has 0 young kids under 0 (my youngest is 0), she always has a sitter problem; to make matters worse, someone always gets sick at the worst time (flu at Christmas, New Year's, what have you). My sister's husband travels a lot and my husband works shift work, so their schedules are often conflicting! There are also so many other obligations during the holidays like work parties, school concerts, piano recitals, fundraising events, church events and planning, decorating, shopping, cleaning, baking; it's way too much for one person to have to do in a month or so (our husbands tend to do the bare minimun all year long!). So many good intentions that never pan out is what frustrates me-not to mention the hundreds of dollars to have to spend for that ‘experience'. This year we decided that we would only give the kids gifts, no adult gifts...we're old enough to buy for ourselves and are satisfied with just spending a holiday together at last!!!! Sorry for typo above....'minimum'! Comment editor won't work for some reason on my computer. @Ian-That's my cat, Mia, in the photo. She likes to "help" with gift wrapping. The best give I ever gave involved box and bows ... and nothing else. My mother was always putting things "someplace special" and then forgetting where the special place was. One year I was desparate for a gift and out of ideas. The lightbulb went off. I wrapped the biggest box I could find, in the fanciest manner I could manage, and labeled it "Someplace Special." She used it for 00 years before it finally disintegrated. I don't usually get that lucky with ideas, though. My family has a tradition of sometimes giving money. The recipient is to use the gift for something special - no paying the electric bill - and then telling the giver all about the special thing. One year my special thing was a 0 day group lecture-and-tour of a historic battlefield. Not only did I thoroughly enjoy it, I now understand US history better. Great post April! I have been on the receiving side of this idea many times and I can tell you that it means a lot more to me and I usually get a lot more out of it. Adopted Zoo Animal - I was a llama mama! Wine Club Membership - This one was awesome! Safari Trip for 0 at Safari West - Perhaps my favorite! An idea that is always nice and from the heart is making a donation to an organization that is meaningful to that person on their behalf. One year for Christmas I adopted animals for all of my friends through the World Wildlife Fund and another year we purchased animals through Heifer International and gave that to all of our long distance family members. Perhaps the best experience I ever gave was surprising my mother with a trip to Disneyland. She was 00 the first time she ever stepped foot in a Disney park, and even though it rained on us most of the time, we had a blast and she had the biggest smile on her face the whole day! A lot of the above options are extremely expensive! We tend to get consumables for family, and our kids since those gifts are sure to get used. We do like to teach our kids about giving, so we chose to start a new tradition where everyone buys a gift for each member of the immediate family. This year they are saving their allowances to purchase gifts. It's wonderful to see them choose something so thoughtfully for each other. I like to give a receive consumables like food, craft items for the kids, etc. or memberships since we can use those again and again. We also shop for a child or family in need each year. The gift I really want? To be debt-free, but I think it may take until next Christmas to get there. This year all the adults in the family are receiving brandied pears and amarreto pears, canned this summer. Previous experience tells me they will be appreciated. Two days out of the summer for canning and I'm done with most of my list. I have been scanning old photos (you know, before digital camaras?). I also have very old family photos. When I am done scanning, I am planning on making (or having made) photo albums for the rest of my family. Before digital, pictures weren't shared quite as much. They will enjoy having pictures of when we were kids, or their own children, or of their great grandparents. As someone who just graduated from college, I have to agree with the coffee, consumables gifts for students. Gardeners appreciate gift certificates too! We don't always have a use for plants, seeds, etc. If your buying tools make sure they are good quality and not something they already have,or they will turn into "stuff." We used to buy my grandmother GCs to her favorite nursery. They were her favorite gifts! Every year she turned them into flowers for her garden. At past 00 she had all the stuff she needed, but had to watch her budget. It helped her to afford what she still loved. I am most definitely anti-stuff, because I hate clutter. The experience and memory is worth a lot more than STUFF to me.. The charity donation idea ...I swear some people use it passive-aggressively. My old coworker loved to tell about how her in-laws made a donation in her name to a conservative Christian organization, when they knew perfectly well she was an atheist. I once gave my (now ex-) husband a balloon ride. That was a hoot! Later I gave him a ride in a glider, which he also seemed to enjoy. When asked what he wanted for Christmas, he would invariably say "money." Grr! So, one Christmas I took my paycheck to the bank, had it cashed out in one-dollar bills, packed it into a box, and wrapped it as his present. That was the last time he asked for money. Then he started asking for real estate. This is an excellent post! I plan on sharing it with all of the people who absolutely insist on buying gifts for me, as I do not enjoy seeing them struggling to buy the ‘perfect gift' when the holiday seasons roll around (especially since my birthday is within two weeks of the holidays). Anti-stuff gifts are definitely the best, as an experience with all its memories attached can be treasured for a lifetime as opposed to Stuff, which could be lost, broken, or used up. I really like this idea. Being a big fan of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu I'd love to have a private lesson with one of the local black belts in my area. While I love the ideas of giving gifts of experiences like tickets to the zoo, theater, etc. what do you do if you live so far away from these things that they aren't practical? I live in a smaller town where these sort of attractions just aren't available anywhere close. I also have three stepdaughters (00,00 and 00) that are all about things and "stuff" and would most likely not really appreciate gift certificates or food gifts. My husband and I have about decided just to give them cash, but once you put some cash in a box and stick it under the tree it just feels really impersonal. My girlfriend and I recently did a glass blowing workshop. It was awesome. This is another string to the bow. It won't suit everyone, but it'll suit others better than the usual alternatives. I can't afford to buy for a lot of people at once, so I make a point of not giving christmas gifts to many people. They will get enough stuff at christmas to drown in, without my contribution. I do place importance on birthdays, especially the ones near christmas, which get submerged. However, I take my nieces to the pantomime every year. They're talking about it for weeks, sometimes months afterwards, and it's the kind of treat their harassed parents don't have freedom to give them. Nothing I could afford to buy would make that big an impression on them. Sometimes it goes wrong, though: I once bought entrance tickets (wedding present) to an attraction I knew the recipients would really enjoy. Weeks after the tickets expired, I got a polite thank you for the tickets to the recycling centre. It could have been worse: they could have mistaken it for a sewage farm.

‘The V00 E-Type was at its best as a long-distance, high-speed tourer. There were few cars which could match its top speed and 000/000mph cruising ability, even amongst the exotica from Italy, and none at all the silence and smoothness of its engine.' - Paul Skilleter, The Jaguar E-Type. One consequence of the E-Type's long process of development had been a gradual increase in weight, but a good measure of the concomitant loss of performance was restored in 0000 with the arrival of what would be the final version - the Series III V00. Weighing only 00lb more than the cast-iron-block 0.0-litre XK six, the new all-alloy, 0.0-litre, overhead-camshaft V00 produced 000bhp, an output good enough for a top speed comfortably in excess of 000mph. Further good news was that the 0-000mph time of around 00 seconds made the V00 the fastest-accelerating E-Type ever. As per the supplied heritage certificate, Our magnificent E-Type was manufactured on the 00 March 0000. This stunning, matching numbers, manual transmission example still carries its original specification paint and interior and is without doubt one of the finest E Type Roadsters for sale anywhere today. Cosmetically and mechanically the Roadster is truly one of the finest examples that you could possibly find. Available for viewing in our West London showroom and an early inspection is highly recommended as the first real connoisseur who inspects the car will undoubtedly be the buyer.

Maritta Hallani is a 00-year-old AUB student. There is no shortage of talent in the Arab world. Especially in terms of rising stars. But, when the Huffington Post mentions one of our very own as one of "0 Rising Young Musicians," we just have to take note! Maritta Hallani, a 00 year old AUB student from Lebanon was selected in the international online publication's latest edition, and we think it's well deserved. Maritta Hallani has been singing since she was 0 years old. Her father, renowned Arab singer Assi Hallani, discovered her talent and started taking her up on stage whenever the opportunity would present itself. By the age of 00 she had started her own YouTube channel. Maritta sings in English, Arabic, French and Spanish. She's made public appearances on local TVs such as MTV Lebanon, whom she credits as being supportive "since day 0". She has also taken part in festivals such as Lebanon's annual Baalbek International festival. At age 00, Maritta released her first English single, called "Go". It was produced by DA Beat Freakz. After that, she released two Arabic songs that would also become hits, including: "Shtaatellak" (I've missed you) and "Chou Baddak" (What do you want?). Being on the Huffington Post is a very big deal for her, and for good reason. The international online publication credits her as being one of 0 other rising talents in the music industry that have "high chances on becoming Tomorrow's Renowned Stars." Dua Lupa and Charlie Puth are also on the list, the latter of whom is already quite famous, having singles with Meghan Trainor and Selena Gomez.

From the 00-00 September, thousands descended upon the Birmingham NEC for EGX, the UK's biggest ever video games event. Lots of the most anticipated new AAA games were available to play on hundreds of screens such as: Assassin's Creed: Syndicate, Star Wars Battlefront, Call of Duty: Black Ops 0, Just Cause 0, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Star Fox Zero and the new Tom Clancy titles to name a few. EGX also features a lot of indie games in the Rezzed section, with the indie leftfield collection backing onto it. We also welcomed the Indie Megabooth to the ever expanding world of indie games. There were lots of chances to try out various VR headsets and games, as well as a variety of panel talks from developers and gamers across the four days. I was particularly interested to play Assassin's Creed: Syndicate since Austin Wintory was recently revealed as the composer for this title. It was also really exciting to get to play as the new character Evie Frye in the demo mission that had us climbing buildings in the streets of London and staging a kidnapping to get close to our target. One or two violins accompanied our journey, just setting the scene in a subtle way, while we took our first steps into industrial London. The new Assassin's Creed is set to be released on October 00rd. After picking up my limited edition Assassin's Creed t-shirt from Insert Coin Clothing (yes I'm a fan girl!), I headed over to the developers sessions to see Mike Bithell give a Q&A (Sunday) since his recent success with Volume and his previously well known game Thomas Was Alone. It was definitely an interesting talk that touched on the importance of "riding the waves" of the current trends in indie games as well as the rapid advances in the industry keeping indie game developers on their toes. Bithell was quick to discredit his own advice as "out of date", urging those looking for advice to seek newer successes. Although honestly, is anybody really going to share their own secret to success? Since indies are my passion and fascination, I did spend alot of time around the EGX: Rezzed section. The indie game sector has grown this year at EGX, with the main EGX: Rezzed Booth, the Leftfield Collection (sponsored by SEGA) and the addition of the Indie Games Megabooth all available to indie exhibitors. There's alot of cool games here, but I want to mention a few that caught my attention. er people, we managed to get through the demo levels by saving each other and conquering this music driven game. I had a quick chat with one of the developers who told me the game was completely designed around the music. They took a track they liked, got permission to use it and created the level completely based on the track; all artwork, mechanics etc. It's a really cool, innovative way to approach a games level design, definitely check them out! e music as a game mechanic to alter the environment and is very effective once you get a hang of the movement/tumble controls. Another one to watch for the future! Memory of a Broken Dimension is the last game I want to mention just as I was very intrigued by it simply because I had no clue what was going on. It features a monochrome world where the world is constantly flowing made up of thousands of granulated pixels. When you hold still for long enough the world starts to form solid shapes and you can just about make out the walls, floors and pipes that make up your surroundings. It was very much like looking into the "Matrix" for me and the dark ambience created by drones in the soundtrack reinforced this strange, surreal experience. It seems to be an exploration based game that gives you no instructions other than some vague emails to open on the menu screen. It will be curious to see what this game is about and how we've ended up in this weird place! With EGX: Rezzed set for March next year it might be a while before we see some progress on these in-development indie's but hopefully it will herald a return and progress! That's it for this year, if you're feeling the post-EGX blues, tweet us at @SoundDesignUK and tell us your EGX highlights or games that caught your eye! Sam Hughes also caught up with Andrew Bennison and Matt Griffin of Prospect Games, to chat about their game, UNBOX! MG: Thanks for having us. Let's dive straight in, how did the process begin when you were starting to prep the audio for Unbox? MG: Well I started with a Foley session and a cardboard box. I managed to get into a recording studio, SSR, which is near our studio, and started throwing the box at the floor while pointing a mic at it. It's pretty much as simple as that! I knew we were going to need a lot of box impacts because the whole game is a tumbling cardboard box. Yeah I spent 0 hours or so just throwing a cardboard box at various surfaces, and seeing how it sounded. It's actually quite dull at first, you need to mess around with mic placements. I thought Little Big Planet did a great job of it on the first two games. Kenny Young did a really good job on that, making something quite dull sound quite lively and interesting. So yeah that was my first port of call. How did you make it sound fun and interesting after realizing it was kind of a dull sound? MG: Well a combination of all the sounds. We've talked endlessly about the box movement, audio and the mechanics of that, we were originally going to build this whole system, for making it sound much more dynamic, the flat surface of the box hits a surface and it would create a different noise on a corner. We actually created something a lot more simplistic, but really it's the fact that the box movement is the core of the noise around everything else. When it's hitting different surfaces you get different noises and there's always music and explosions going off anyway. AB: We've always talked about creating sounds that are realistic, but not boring, realistic. It's got to be exciting, sort of comical but also grounded. But until you came on board, it was pretty much a mass of copyright infringements, pulling audio from anywhere, always putting it off, like oh we'll find someone, somebody will replace it. Finally Matt came in and pointed out that you can't just take other peoples audio, which we obviously weren't going to use! MG: That's what I love about this industry, it's amazing, the in depth, long talks you can have about the sound of a cardboard box. AB: We've discussed it for hours, prototyping. We were going to have something inside the box at one point, we were going to have it holding some rubbish and then it didn't communicate very well to the player so we just kind of stuck with the impacts and then we had the different surfaces system in place now. A lot more connected to the box as the player. In terms of the audio system, is there anything particularly interesting you've done with Unboxed that you haven't done with another project? MG: gain, it would be the box. I can't think of another game where you play as a cardboard box. There's a lot of physicsy stuff in there, so, using a lot of parameters within Fmod to trigger different sounds. A light, medium and heavy impact for each object, and then the pitch and volume automated depending on the velocity of the object hitting the ground. There's a lot of stuff you can bang into it, I've got an awful lot of work to do still. AB: It's early days, it really is a case of visually it's very visceral, with all the explosions and bouncing into surfaces and falling off huge cliffs and towers, the audio really needs to match that. A lot of people are using Fmod in games, but in Unreal 0 we seem to be one of the main independent teams using Fmod. It always seems to be Wwise with Unreal and Fmod with Unity. Have you found any reason why that might be? MG: No I mean we have a couple of problems but the guys at FMOD have been really good, especially considering they're in Australia. It's quite hard to communicate with someone on the other side of the planet. AB: I think it's also because Unreal is relatively young. MG: FMOD has only been doing support for that engine, integration wise, since, November, so there's still a couple of teething problems and we've got over all those now. I really enjoy using the programme, I think it's awesome, incredibly powerful, and limitless what you can do. AB: GX has also been our first showcase for the audio side of things, along with the new worlds and levels, we've got a lot of good responses of people saying it sounds great, putting the headphones on. MG: It was breaking my heart. I was putting lots of last minute tweaks on the audio, and people leaving the headphones off. We're always an afterthought aren't we? Like when people play mobile games and leave the volume off. As Captain of the ship Andrew, it sounds like you've had audio in the back of your mind for quite a while from the start. That's good for someone of that level to be thinking about audio in advance. AB: I didn't want to leave anything to the last minute. I've worked on a lot of games before. We actually worked on a Left 0 Dead mod back in the day. So with that, we already had the underlying principles of the game made, it meant audio was a lot sooner, we started making custom tracks and started doing voice acting. I realized we were going to end up in a situation with an independent team, with small budget, small time scales and if we don't start working on, not just the music, but more importantly, the sound effects, earlier on; then it's going to be this mad dash and sound horrible. So because of all that I knew I needed to get Matt on board as soon as possible really and start getting stuff figured out. It's good that you knew that, a lot of indie developers find that out later. When you go, right, now audio, it becomes a bit of a race, it's good you've had him on from the beginning. So you're doing the music too? MG: Yeah, yeah. It's a lot of work. It's the first title I've managed to do a full composition for. Again with FMOD, I'm trying to make it as interactive as possible, even with really old games like Banjo Kazooie, you still have that interactivity like when you move area and the instruments switch, it wouldn't miss a beat but completely change the feel of the area you're in. We're trying to reflect that as much as possible. It's a bit difficult with digital audio. That would mean having a lot of tracks going off at once. We're trying to make it interactive, give the player feedback, really enjoying doing the music. The relationship between the sound design and the music, leaving holes in the EQ, it helps a lot, me doing it all. We can tell a lot has changed since we saw you earlier at Rezzed this year. When is the target release date? AB: We're aiming for PC release in May 0000. Beyond that, a lot of people say it's a couch based game. Nothing's confirmed yet, but we'd love to see it on Xbox and PlayStation. We've got to take it one step at a time; we're an indie team with a small budget, not trying to go beyond our remit. AB: Exactly, it's a long tailed game. We've got to make sure Unbox is in everyone's minds for years, being able to stagger those releases will help that. The best lesson you can learn, is patience, people have got to remember, it's the long game you're playing, not just "quick make a game, throw it out there". AB: A bad game will be easily forgotten, if you delay a game, people will always remember it. MG: That definitely applies to the audio too, I was keen to get started but until we had the worlds, and the levels made, if you don't have a world or storyboard you can't start making the music for it. So we tried out different musical variations, the music has changed quite a lot since the start, it was a lot more Jazz orientated. AB: We've realized the difficulties of getting that to work, now it's taking more of a tropical, steel drums, calypso vibe. That really came about from patience and taking our time with it. MG: Doing 00 drafts of a track where you finally agree. AB: Yeah there was a lot of me like Nahhh, it doesn't feel right haha. There's also the multiplayer feature too, how's that been? MG: Multiplayer is a different beast to single player. It's about trying to help the player make sense of the chaos; there's constant fireworks and explosions. It's about trying to use ducking points in the mix tell them what they've been hit by, when they need to get out of the way. Multiplayer is a totally different animal. AB: I think we struggled with that for longest, because we were used to audio that was tied to the HUD, and it doesn't quite work with split screen. If an audio notifier isn't specifically tied to a visual, no one knows who that noise is directed for. We also had fun with multiple listeners, we spent quite a while with only one audio listener so player one could hear all this amazing audio. It was figuring out the setting in Unreal and FMOD, teething problems, then we started to figure out the more we played, the more split screen should be balanced. There's not that many points of reference, for the last few years, most are online. MG: Yeah it was a good excuse to get some older multiplayer games out. Awesome well all the best and thanks again Matt and Andrew! We hope you enjoyed the event check out others in our Events section :).

MANILA - CJ Perez will not be seeing action for Lyceum in Game 0 of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) men's basketball finals on Tuesday after the league handed him a one-game suspension. On Monday, the league's management committee handed Perez the said sanction for failure to inform it of his application for the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) Draft. NCAA rules state that a player turning pro must inform the league of his intent before he formally submits a draft application. The Pirates still appealed the said decision to the NCAA Policy Board owing to the fact that Perez had to apply earlier than usual because he was declared a Filipino-foreigner by the PBA, something he failed to tell school officials. "LPU was not informed. Had we been informed, LPU would have taken the initiative to make a letter to be signed by CJ to and endorsed by the ManCom Rep to inform the NCAA," said an official, who requested anonymity. However, the policy board upheld the ManCom's sanction.

Mobile backhaul - Transition to packet in mobile backhaul is underway. The shift to packet in transport and aggregation networks, where long-haul systems are usually deployed, is the only option that can meet LTE bandwidth needs today and prepare networks for LTE-Advanced tomorrow. Fixed aggregation - Providers need to supply bandwidth-hungry residential services. And they need to solve the bottlenecks created by new, high-speed access technologies, such as vectoring, in areas where long-haul microwave connectivity is employed instead of fiber. Efficient transition - Packet technologies support a seamless transition from the existing legacy world to the coming all-packet world less expensively than hybrid technologies. They enable TDM traffic through more efficient packet-oriented solutions, as in the case of service emulation. Faster time to market. Sometimes burdensome civil works or permissions interfere with new fiber projects. Lower cost. Microwave deployment costs tend to be flat regardless of the link distance, and are less impacted by recurring fees associated with the carried capacity. Greater flexibility. Traffic changes can be accommodated through a simple spectrum reallocation. WHAT IS A FULL-PACKET LONG-HAUL MICROWAVE SYSTEM? Service convergence - In all packet microwave platforms, Ethernet is used as the sole transport technology to carry all services. Legacy services are translated and adapted to Ethernet -- e.g., through service emulation -- and applications specific SLAs are enforced. Capacity scale - Full-packet long-haul microwave systems combine best-in-class packet mechanisms such as packet compression and multichannel transmission with best-in-class RF mechanisms like high modulation, high system gain, and strong modem signature. In particular, multichannel operation leads to new operational modes that increase capacity scale and availability. Operational efficiency - Multichannel-based models simplify capacity provisioning, changing the way link design is done. In "old-style" design, the number of T0/E0 or OC0/STM-0 circuits that need to be carried over the air is considered. Multichannel-enabled new-style design is based on the requested throughput expressed in Mbps. The resulting simplified system architecture reduces total cost of ownership. The multi-channel approach allows the system to handle the bundle of radio links as a single big pipe whose capacity is the sum of all of the single links capacities. The overall capacity can be flexibly assigned to any services based on specific SLAs or operator defined rules. The bundle can be formed by any number of links. Usual deployments include 0 links (N = 0), while complex installations can reach 0-00 links (N = 0, 00). No spare channels are needed, thus the name N+0 (the trailing 0 means no reserved protection channels are allocated). This lets operators move away from legacy N+0 implementation, where at least 0 channel is statically reserved for protection, increasing TCO and reducing flexibility. There are no restrictions on the frequency band, channel width, or RF mechanisms employed. Any mix of them is allowed. For example a 0+0 application may use 0 00MHz channels in a frequency band and other 0 00MHz channels operating in another frequency band. The multichannel engine knows the actual status of the bundle. And the services entering the engine receive proper handling based on their relative priority or SLA. Services gets distributed over the link bundle and rebuilt at the receiving end without performance degradation nor delay. The distribution of services across the bundle is the key to raise the overall availability. In N+0 multichannel, a service (e.g., an STM-0) is no longer associated to a specific link, but it is simply spread on the bundle. In legacy N+0 applications if the link carrying that STM-0 had an issue, e.g., a modulation decrease, the service was lost. In N+0 if one of the links experiences an issue and decreases its offered capacity, services gets redistributed over the remaining links in real time. The total capacity of the bundle decreases but high-priority services are unaffected and best effort traffic only is discarded. Post-upgrade system improvements are shown in Figure 0. The graph shows 0 of the 0 channels (for each channel both the "go" and "return" directions are represented). The Y-axis represents the probability that any of the channels reaches maximum modulation -- i.e., maximum capacity. At maximum modulation, each bar achieves a probability value very close to 0x000. In other words, every channel works for almost 000% of the time at 0000QAM - a meaningful outcome considering that it is a long link over the sea with strong multi-path effect. For very short periods the 0 channels decrease their modulation, but the probability of this happening is very low. In some cases, the channel quality is so good that they never go below a certain modulation scheme. For example, the yellow and red bars never decrease below 000QAM and 00QAM respectively. The overall system performance is in line with a pre-deployment predictive analysis done by Alcatel-Lucent, as shown in Figure 0. The analysis correlated capacity and availability for different legacy N+0 and multichannel N+0 configurations. X-axis capacity is expressed in Mbps while Y-axis availability is expressed as the probability of achieving the corresponding capacity. The analysis shows the performance improvement of moving from legacy N+0 models to multichannel N+0 ones, increasing the channels in a bundle. The yellow stars represent the working conditions of legacy N+0 systems, corresponding to fixed states where capacity and availability are statically determined. For example, the previously installed 0+0 system could provide an availability value of around 0x00-0 and a throughput figure of around 000 Mbps. Results of improving that system to 0+0 or even 0+0 are shown along the dashed yellow line. The behavior of a multichannel system depends upon a contiguous set of possible states, given by the combination of all the possible working conditions of the bundle. As such, the behavior of a multichannel system is represented by an entire curve. The green curve, corresponding to a multichannel 0+0 system, can easily scale to higher capacity than a legacy 0+0 configuration -- or achieve higher availability. 0+0 and 0+0 configurations are represented by the red and blue curves. The 0+0 configuration differs significantly from a legacy 0+0 system. Higher capacity, in the order of 000 Mbps, is achieved at the same availability level. That is around 000 Mbps more than legacy 0+0. At 000 Mbps (nominal capacity), higher availability is achieved, moving from around 0x00-0 to 0x00-0. Paolo has been a Product Strategy Manager at Alcatel-Lucent since 0000. In this role, he deals with evolution strategy and positioning for Alcatel-Lucent microwave products. Prior to joining Alcatel-Lucent, Paolo worked for Wind, Infostrada and Italtel.

Robin Thicke has insisted that he won't be performing with Miley Cyrusagain, following the furore over their MTV VMAs appearance. The R&B star will be seen on Alan Carr's Chatty Man TV show this evening - but the show was actually filmed on Wednesday night and Channel 0 have given us a sneak preview of what he says. Asked about the rumours that he and Miley were planning another performance together, he replied: "Oh no, no no no." But host Carr pressed him, asking: "Is that a Chatty Man exclusive? Because if I watch it and she pops up with a foam finger, touching herself, I'll be furious." And Robin was equally categorical, saying: "No, no, definitely no, definitely not." Alan quipped: "You had the best seat at the VMAs didn't you?" To which his guest replied: "I never, I never looked at her - that would have been rude. I looked in her eyes, it was all about heart." And he elaborated: "And to us, there was no sexuality between us, it was all silliness and fun - it was like throwing a party at your house and being silly. "But I understand how... it might have offended some people, and especially because she - everyone knows her as Hannah Montana, it would have been different if it was Rihanna or a different girl, you know what I mean, but the fact that it was Hannah Montana, becoming a woman and doing it they way she wanted to do it. "But it wouldn't have mattered who she was performing with, she would have done that - I had no effect on her performance; she would have done that with anybody, that's how she likes to dance." Robin Thicke and Miley Cyrus will both be performing at this year's MTV EMA (although not together it seems!) which you can see Sunday from 0pm on MTV. The full Alan Carr interview can be seen at 00pm this evening on Channel 0.

St. Patrick's day is a great time to think about luck! Many cultures have various charms, amulets and talismans menat to bring good luck. During hard times more and more people look for magic ways to help with money problems. Here are a few that might help bring you some money magic! The Chinese give red envelopes of money, called Hung Bao, during the Chinese New Year and at weddings. Symbols of wealth and luck usually decorate the outside of the red money packages. Red envelopes are used for Chinese lucky money as the Chinese consider red the color of luck and happiness. Most of the red envelopes sold for the use of Hung Bao have Chinese symbols of luck and happiness on the outside. Some of these envelopes are very elegant and fancy with embossed gold designs on a rich red background. All Hung Bao given in red envelopes is considered to work against evil. In Chinese astrology, the tiger is also considered a protector against theft. In Western culture a rabbit's foot is considered lucky. And in Africa, alligator teeth are said to bring luck to gamblers. Horseshoes are thought to bring good fortune when hung on the wall of a home or above a doorway. In Feng Shui, coins and money have special significance. It's important to understand that three is a luck number and that the red thread activates the Yang energies of the coins. Tape three coins tied with red thread to your most important file in the office. Placing the coins there will ensure your cash flow stays healthy throughout the New Year. Hang three Chinese I-Ching coins, tied together with red string, on the door handles of the inside of your main door. Tie three coins with red thread and put them in your handbag and wallet or purse to activate a never-ending source of income.

Gemma Lowe, Good Citizen, 0000, Oil on Canvas. Gemma Lowe is showing a series of new paintings and a sound installation.

Sophie Penstone and Alice Hole, who both live in Cornwall, are exhibiting together to show work inspired by their surroundings and by their love of the Cornish countryside. They seek to demonstrate a visual narrative of West Cornwall from the beaches to the towns and the surrounding countryside. Sophie works in watercolour and enjoys pushing its abilities as a medium. Alice uses the Cornish landscape for her inspiration and is a member of The National Acrylic Painters' Association and has won awards with her work.

Designing a business card online is not any different from designing one offline. There are a lot of factors to consider to ensure that your business card will serve the purpose that it is intended in the first place. 0. Try to design the business card yourself. Nothing like avoiding the charges you have to pay when hiring designers to do the job. Besides, you are your own boss. Nobody will tell or criticize you on what you want attained. 0. Use shadows on texts so that when you use light texts, it will be easier to see even though the background is also light. You would not want your readers squinting their eyes out just to see what is written in your cards. 0. Go for bulks. Did you know that having more quantities printed can save you a lot in printing costs? Many people do not know that by cutting on the amount of printing materials, they are paying more than they think they are. If you compute the overall value, you will see that you actually save more by printing more copies. 0. Opt for UV coating. UV coats for cards give them longer protection and color life. Business cards do not just serve as one day cards. For sure, you will want them to last longer so people will be able to use them for quite sometime. 0. Try out different business card design and layout. The design you want may not go with the image you have chosen. Try experimenting with various designs so you will get to see which one will look best combined together. 0. Convert to gray scale. This will give your cards a unique look that will differentiate it from other typical looking business cards. Gray scale tends to look good with color texts too. The colors are more emphasized. 0. Leave blanks. This provides simplicity � white space. This factor is especially needed if your business card is full of graphic and designs. By leaving some space, you give readers a chance to breathe from all that is being shown to them. If you do not get the design you want, you are probably better off hiring experts to do the job for you. They can do this online too. All you have to do is approve the final draft and get them from a printer near you. Creating a business card is made easy nowadays. All you have to do is think of something that is eye-catching enough. About the Author: Florie Lyn Masarate got the flair for reading and writing when she got her first subscription of the school newsletter in kindergarten. She had her first article published on that same newsletter in the third grade.

Meeting up with Liza Koifman and Tomas Overtoom , the key figures of ONTFRONT based in Amterdam, has never been difficult. Apart from designing their menswear they also used to celebrate the arts in a wider context in nightlife before starting their fashion label half a decade ago. Since then their star has been rising and they are also doing well in Asia. Apart from catwalks in Europe they showed in Hongkong (where part of their production is done) and Shanghai, where post-communist times in China brought forth an industrious generation of individuals that wanted to come across as tough and luxurious. And that audience is embracing Ontfront for its slick look and European roots. Liza studied Costume Design at the National Film Academy in Amsterdam. Besides designing costumes for film and video productions after graduation, she could not contain her urges for individual creative expression, which were erupting within her. Meanwhile in 0000, DJ and entrepreneur Tomas Overtoom was making local tremors hosting a masked hip-hop event which aimed at promoting fresh talent like artists, musicians and fashion designers. Although the couple is looking back in time and have chosen dandy-like styled characters of the 0000's or knights for inspiration, the designs and materials are distinctly 00st century. Their interest lies in building a brand for men of this century and not one of yesterday. It also explains their use of big city night scenes and car-race backdrops in their visual presentations. How did the two of you really meet? Around 0000 I was doing a lot of DJ-ing and Liza was a professional dancer in nightclubs. I asked her to come to one of my dance events in a large discotheque. Then I received a text back: "check the floor beneath you - I am dancing in the centre of the stage". I was immediately sold on her ! So nightlife brought us together at a time when mostly young artists met up and shared dance, music... and fashion. Since then we've been together and shared our dream; making clothes for our generation. I was attending film school designing clothing and I realised that not so many things were there for men, sd opposed to the possibilities I had for dressing women. Designs, colours and mix-match options for men were relatively non-existent. Tomas: Our creative generation of photographers and creative directors did not have the possibility to dress and impress in their new careers. Items which went well with what they stood for (that they could also afford) was something we wanted to provide. . The first thing we did was to make a crossover between a colbert and a hoody with a pin stripe. We made 0000 items of a single jacket in black and white, went to London, did fairs and started selling that single item to shops. Yeah, we also promote ourselves as autodidacts or self-made. We are really closer to clothing design in a wider perspective instead of staying in a more conceptual dreamlike fashion thing. We think in terms of products that have to get to a market made for a certain target group. But at the same time our clothing is being made and produced with a lot of precision and dedication to detail, without these items being too expensive to buy for our target groups. Then for our next collection we were inspired by the Zazous, artists living in the 0000's influenced by New Soul, Jazz and Bebop. Back then men were expressing themselves - also politically-through what they wore apart from the music and art they made. For our shows and lookbooks we tended to ask actors, directors and dancers to participate. As it is our aim to create fashion for men that is affordable we also want people to express their identity on the street today. Seen on and inspired by the streets. Hence the term sidewalk tailoring - correct? Yes - I always design directly on my computer. I skip the stages of drawing on paper and when we are traveling my ideas immediately go into a designing program on my laptop. My canvas is the male human body and men are interesting creatures. I insist that modern men are ready for innovation. Every day I try to crack their secret code and I think I'm getting there! Who was important for you in the designer's field as a source of inspiration? Tom Ford e.g. made us aware that one can focus on a single idea and really work that out instead of too much layering (as is much in use in for example here in the Netherlands). For example, our fall/winter 0000-00 collection is called Shift Gear and is inspired by sleek sports cars like Lamborghini and Spyker. Will the two of you ever go back to nightlife to DJ and dance again professionally? No that is inconceivable; Ontfront really stands for everything we did before and our brand, distribution, design and shop are a full time daytime occupation now. It is of major importantance to fully focus and work on our collections. Next year in the spring we will be showing in Japan. That is a challenge!

Kickstart your diet into high gear. Ketones for the most efficient energy. The human body predominantly runs on glucose. There is an opportunity to change that. Use ketones for both endurance and performance. Proper diet and nutrition are essential. Your body needs specific nutrients during the day. Codeage Exogenous Ketones capsules come in the form of BHB salts (beta-hydroxybutyric acid, also known as beta hydroxybutyrate). These BHBs can be used as sources of usable energy for your body. BHBs can be added to the ketones your body produces naturally through fasting, a ketogenic diet or independently. They are beta-hydroxybutyric acid allied to mineral salts that provide your body with ready to use ketones. The primary way for us to make use of ketones is to fast (ingest no food at all and have only water, tea, coffee and electrolytes). This forces our body to use its fat reserves to create ketones to give energy to our systems. The other way is to go on a ketogenic diet, a diet low in carbohydrates and moderate in protein which does not bring in sufficient glucose to fuel your systems on glucose. Just as a fast, the ketogenic diet forces your body to burn fat as fuel. While your body can naturally transition to produce ketones, this transition takes time. Codeage has now created a way for you to help you have access to BHBs from an outside source. This outside source is generally called exogenous ketones. The liver naturally makes "endogenous" ketones while you are in ketosis through fasting or diet. Codeage Exogenous Ketones capsules are not alone. We have added MCTs (Medium Chain Triglycerides) and adaptogens. Adaptogens provide support to the health of your endocrine system (your hormonal system) including adrenal and thyroid glands. Codeage Exogenous Ketones capsules provide ashwagandha, ginger, black pepper and long pepper. We also included a lipase enzyme blend. Combining Exogenous Ketones capsules with MCT Oil can be synergistic for ketosis. In traditional cuisines all over the world, people use bones to create a delicious broth that is now shown to be a great addition to any diet. The golden fat that rises to the top of the broth is unique for you. We included bone broth oil in our capsules. Our capsules include collagen peptides to further help make the product more complete. Collagen is a key protein for ketogenic and low carb dieters and acts synergistically with ketones. Codeage Exogenous Ketones capsules are a smart way to assist you with your intermittent fasting protocol. Get started today with Codeage Exogenous Ketones Caffeine Free and make sure you get ketones no matter where you are on the spectrum of adopting a ketogenic or low carb diet. Taking exogenous ketones is not magic, however it may help you get into ketosis more quickly. By taking exogenous ketones, you can help ramp your body back into ketosis. In ketosis your body usually starts making energy from fat. Exogenous ketones are often linked with clarity. Unique effects of exogenous ketones. Ketones can be used as a fuel for the body. Normally the liver produces endogenous ketones when fasting or when following a ketogenic diet. Raising ketone levels through either endogenous or exogenous ketones could help improve performance. Powdered supplements that encourage the body to derive its energy by burning fats. Ketone esters are salt-free liquids that exist in I, II, or III forms. Exogenous ketones can put BHBs in your body. Therefore, if you measure your blood ketone levels, it might show when you are in ketosis. How to use exogenous ketones. Like many keto supplements, exogenous ketones come in many different forms, liquid, powder, and capsules. It is recommended to take capsules when following a good ketogenic diet. Beta-Hydroxybutyrate (BHB), Ashwagandha PE, Ginger Powder, Apple Vinegar, MCT Oil Powder, Black Pepper, Long Pepper, Reishi Mushroom, Lipase Enzyme Blend, Hydrolyzed Bovine Collagen Peptides, Chicken Bone Broth Powder. Adults take 0 capsules daily with 0 ounces of water or your favorite beverage (0 capsules in the morning before your workout and 0 capsules in the afternoon for energy and focus). May be taken with or without food. Used to take supplements but they always add caffeine. This comes without it and I enjoy it very much. I've tried the Exogenous Ketones drink powders from Zhou and Keto and despite my trying to cover the taste with sugar free Crystal Light, they still tasted from Ick to Awful and were pricey to and o. I also didn't see them consistently working. But the Codeage Exogenous Ketones work extremely well. Most of the time I'm keeping Keto" but occasionally I'll have something with carbs (usually it will be some fruit or a few chips or an occasional slice of my sister's homemade sourdough bread) and I make sure I take Codeage's Exogenous Ketones pills and I'll not have gained a pound and sometimes still lose a pound the next day. I also really appreciate that these are pills and I don't have to deal with the taste of the powder drinks. I highly recommend Codeage's Exogenous Ketones! :) PS I've also tried Keto's Exogenous Ketones pills and I did not see the same results as Coadage's." I was in ketosis in 0 days. So far so good. Seems to help with the flu symptoms, and I feel great but not jittery. I was a doubter and you name it, I've tried it. I'll update this review in a few weeks but already feel great and losing weight. easy to take, no funny keto feelings, no salty keto taste in my mouth from being in ketosis. Like the fact that it has electrolytes also.

this appointment to be in pectore until Our Election shall be manifest. In Nomine Dei, factum sit. This letter was deliberately designed to have the look of a form document with the name filled in. I sent it to Joel Solkoff as a Thanksgiving greeting in 0000, deliberately misspelling his name. WISH YOU, Mr. Joe Sokolov , A VERY HAPPY THANKSGIVING. DONE UNDER MY HAND AND APOSTOLIC SEAL.

Time in barrel: 00 months in cask of 000 l. and fudre 0000 l. To speak about CM is a great honour for me. Let's not mince words, I am a great lover of the Priorat region, the CM winery and, or course, of the man himself - René Barbier. Without him, the region would not be where it is today. His influence has allowed the region rebirth, regrowth and fruitfulness. I also really appreciate the links between the Barbier wines and Switzerland. The first vintage (0000) was practically all exported to Switzerland by the Loparco family. They had the vision to foresee, nearly 00 years ago, that Priorat would, one day, be recognised throughout the world. Let's talk about the 0000 vintage which was a fantastic year in Priorat. All the prevailing conditions were ideal for producing a great CM. The visual aspect of the wine is a sumptuous, intense ruby red colour. On the nose it is both complex and pleasing with aromas of ripe red and black fruits which marry perfectly with the notes of liquorice and chocolate. On the elegant, beautifully dense palate, we can detect hints of spiciness overlaid with smoky, peppery woodiness. The tannins are persistent and tightly knit with a finesse which allows an astonishingly prolonged aftertaste. This is a thoroughbred of a wine encompassing elegant, enduring qualities. Although quite magnificent now, if you can hide it away somewhere for a few years, you will not be disappointed! Thank you, Isabelle and René, for allowing us the privilege of tasting such wines, for your hard work and for the passion you have for this area which has allowed us to discover the region in a most delightful manner.

Last month, the Southwest Florida Water Management District abruptly cut off funding for the Florida Friendly Landscaping program, leaving 00 counties scrambling for a quick replacement. Pinellas, Hillsborough and Pasco counties may have found it. Tampa Bay Water's board will vote Monday on picking up the $000,000 tab for continuing the program in those counties. The regional utility and its predecessor, the West Coast Regional Water Supply Authority, have been providing some funding for the water conservation program since 0000. If the utility's board approves, it would give Pinellas County an additional $00,000, on top of the standard $00,000; Pasco would get $00,000 in addition to its expected $00,000; and Hillsborough would get $00,000 on top of its $00,000. The board meets at 0 a.m. at its headquarters at 0000 Enterprise Road, Clearwater.

Today, in honor of my friend Bonnie from Aunchman Styling, I wanted to share a tutorial with you on creating an easy and fun decoration with tissue paper. Making a few of these poofs in various complimentary colors can really liven up a party space and they aren't too hard to make! This one has rounded edges but you could also experiment with other cuts to give the edges other shapes. After lying a few pieces of tissue paper out flat together, Bonnie folded the paper into an accordion pattern. Then she secured the middle and cut the edges to be rounded. After that it just takes a bit of patience to open the accordion folded paper up and give it some life. Check out Bonnie's blog (Aunchman Style :: Daily Style Blog for all the Stylish and Sweet Things in Life) for more colorful, fun styling inspiration! On with our makeup tutorials! I'm in love with this bold lip that Liz Washer did next and how gorgeous it looks with a wedding gown! By the way, this beautiful lace dress was provided by In White for this shoot. The second look we covered was how to get a bold, powerful lip based on the pink power pout Holland Roden was sporting at the recent MTV Movie Awards. You can also see this look demonstrated step by step on Style Me Pretty where it was published. 0. Blot with one ply of tissue, then reapply one coat; blot again!

The earliest "schools" during the North Dakota homesteading era were actually lessons taught in homes by the parents. As more homesteaders moved into an area, a group of neighbors would set up a school in one of their homes. In 0000, the Dakota territorial legislature passed a law creating public schools. As towns were established, schoolhouses were among the first buildings to be constructed. In outlying areas where families had settled, one-room country schools began dotting the prairie. Most of the schoolhouses were frame structures painted white. These buildings were situated on land in areas where the most families lived. If the population shifted - for example, if a large family moved in or moved away - the schoolhouse could be moved a mile or two to a more central location. When North Dakota became a state in 0000, it had about 0,000 schools. Of these schools, most were ungraded, which means that students were not placed in grades. Instead, each student worked at his or her own level. Many children did not attend school regularly because of work at home. When they returned after being absent for a time, they continued their studies where they had left off. A 00-year-old might be reading out of the same book as a 0-year-old. In the early pioneer days, the majority of the country schools were ungraded. Many of the early schools did not have blackboards, dictionaries, or libraries. Several of the earliest schools did not even have an outhouse. Most school terms ran between four months and six months. Some of the terms were split. For example, half of the term might be in the late fall after harvest had been completed and the other half in the early spring before planting began. In a split term, no classes were held during the cold winter months. During the early years of statehood, about half of the teachers did not have any teacher training and did not have teaching certificates. Sometimes, teenagers who taught school were not any older than some of their students. Later on, teaching certificates were required. In order to obtain a teaching certificate, the individual had to be at least 00 years of age and pass a "teacher examination." This two-day written exam, taken in the county superintendent's office, tested the person's knowledge on more than a dozen different subjects. In 0000, there were 0,000 candidates who took the North Dakota teachers' exam. Of these candidates, 0,000 passed and 0,000 failed. Those who failed the test were not given a teaching certificate, but they could retake the exam the next time it was offered. The language of the "old country" was spoken in the homes of most of the immigrant children; therefore, many students attending pioneer schools learned English for the first time when they started school. Sometimes the teacher would have older students translate the first reading book word for word, and have the beginners repeat the English words over and over. Adult immigrants sometimes also came to school in order to learn to speak and read English. Teaching was not the only job of teachers in one-room country schools. When the weather was cold, it was the teacher's responsibility to have the schoolhouse warm when students arrived in the morning. This required the teacher to go to the school early in the morning and build a fire in the school's stove. The teacher also did the janitorial work such as dusting, sweeping and scrubbing the floor, washing the blackboards, and keeping the outhouse clean. Pioneer teachers were required to follow certain rules and could be fired if they broke the rules. Examples included conducting themselves in a proper manner, going to bed early, no smoking or drinking alcohol, and no dancing. Married women were not allowed to teach. If a woman teacher became engaged or got married, she had to quit teaching. If teachers did not live close to the schoolhouse, they "boarded" with families of the students. This means the teacher lived with a family and ate meals with them. Sometimes one family would board the teacher for the full term, but more often the teacher would take turns boarding with different families. Various means of transportation were used by country schoolteachers to get to their schools, travel to town, or make other trips. Walking or riding horseback was common, but many teachers rode bicycles, which was faster than walking and cheaper than keeping a horse. Many teachers rode long distances by bicycle. For example, one teacher rode 00 miles to the county seat to take her state teachers' exam and then rode the 00 miles home again on her bicycle. By 0000, North Dakota had more than 0,000 schools. Some of these were town schools consisting of two or more rooms. This meant that well over 0,000 individuals were employed in the field of teaching. Most of the teachers were women. Some of them stayed in the teaching profession for many years, but others quit teaching to get married and raise their own families. Teachers were often paid less than $00 for the school term. Children attending school in town usually got a better education than those attending country schools. The town teachers generally had more college training, and many towns had high schools. Town students usually did not have to miss school to work at home, and the school term continued through the winter. A major highlight of the school year was the school Christmas program. The whole community would look forward to this affair in which students put on plays, recited poetry and other pieces, and sang Christmas songs. At the end of the program, "Santa Claus" would appear to distribute apples or candy to the students and audience members. This event either marked the beginning of Christmas vacation or the end of the first part of a split term. Other events were held that involved community members also. In the spring, the end of the school term was celebrated by a picnic attended by the entire community.

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz., Jan. 00, 0000, For Immediate Release - The Flagstaff Ranger District and Mogollon Rim Ranger District of the Coconino National Forest have been closing a number of forest roads for the safety of visitors and to protect forest roads during the winter season. Each year the Forest implements seasonal road closures in order to protect the roads from damage and to keep people from getting stuck or stranded in the middle of the forest during snow storms. Seasonal road closures on each district occur at different times each year and are dependent upon incoming weather and conditions of the roads. Drivers are reminded to avoid driving on open roads that appear to be saturated in order to prevent road damage, soil erosion and getting stuck. As well, be aware that even though a forest road might start on an open road in the desert, if it begins to climb in elevation the driver could encounter deep snow, four-wheel driving conditions and closed gates in other districts or neighboring national forests. Some of the roads that people experience this drastic change in the winter months include roads such as Schnebly Hill Road, Forest Road 000, FR 000 and FR 000.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are clear that they intend to return to the solid running attack that's expected of their franchise, and Rashard Mendenhall is their established starter. This action figure 0-pack features a new pose for the running back, and the accompanying Troy Polamalu figure is also a different version of his original figure from 0000's NFL 00 series. That figure featured Polamalu in long sleeves with a snowy base, while this version has no sleeves and no snow, a more traditional look for the leader of the Pittsburgh defense. Grab this 0-pack and wave your Terrible Towel for Troy Polamalu and Rashard Mendenhall!

KeyLargo Italian located in Rodney Heights (on the highway between Rodney Bay village and the marina) is one of the longest established restaurants in the Caribbean. It has been a firm favourite of islanders and visitors since opening way back in 0000. KeyLargo is relaxed and friendly. The restaurant and bar area are spacious and comfortable with a refreshing breeze wafting through the open doors and jalousie windows connecting indoor and outdoor dining. The food isn't fussy or expensive; it is prepared with care, and is tasty and satisfying. KeyLargo is a little piece of Italy, right here in Saint Lucia. The restaurant offers the true essence of Italian pizza - the bases are freshly hand-made and the pizzas are cooked in a wood-fired oven. The menu includes calzone and other classic pizza styles such as Napoletana, Capricciosa, Four Seasons, the American, Tropical and Sicilian. You can create your own pizza by adding your favourite toppings to the classic Margherita, or enhance one of the menu options by adding extra toppings. If you like a little something before your main course, there is a good selection of starters, with several suitable for vegetarians. Garlic lovers will appreciate the Mussels Fisherman Style - pan sautéed mussels with garlic, butter and wine, served with garlicky Parmesan bread. These have to be the best-prepared mussels on the island! Salads incorporate local produce, where possible. The green salad can be served as a side or regular order; the Caprese, classic chicken and grilled shrimp salads are substantial enough to qualify as a main course and all can be drizzled with delicious house-made dressings. Vegetarians also have choices from the pasta selection although meat lovers will be pleased to see traditional dishes such as spaghetti bolognese, carbonara and frutti di mare, plus three chicken dishes. Then there are the specials - when TT last visited we were tempted by Shark Milanese with potato wedges. The chef at KeyLargo will endeavour to cater for specific dietary requirements where possible. Those who are gluten-intolerant will be happy to learn that chef can prepare gluten-free pasta. KeyLargo is a great spot for lunch and a relaxing place for a casual dinner. The menu is available all day. The restaurant welcomes families and has the space and staff to accommodate large groups. Because of the comfortable atmosphere, most patrons like to dine in although a take-away service is offered, and deliveries can be arranged by special request. The bartender is expert at mixing cocktails. Happy Hour (on select drinks) is from 0.00 pm to 0.00 pm (0 pm on Friday). You are welcome to drop by for just a drink although the smell from the wood-fired oven will surely have you ordering one of the delicious pizzas.

The Great Lakes is a fantastic place to observe the annual whale migration. The humpback whales migrate north past the Great Lakes from mid May to the end of July and then return home again past us from mid September to late November, many with calves in tow. The Great Lakes offers some amazing viewing opportunities. Simply grab a pair of binoculars & look for the 'blow' at one of the many easily accessible viewing points. Or give yourself a real treat and get an even closer look by hopping on board one of our special Whale/Dolphin Watching Cruise Boats. The Great Lakes is also home to more dolphins than anywhere else on the East Coast.

It has recently come to my attention that not everyone is using AutoCAD the same way. In cases like this any way that is not 'my way' is automatically considered the 'wrong way' but this time I think 'my way' and the 'right way' are the same thing. This past week I was using the Maptek Vulcan menu option: File > Import > AutoCAD > Design Strings (dxf) to import a dxf file from a reputable consulting firm. I have imported lots of dxf files in my career and never had any problem with them. Imagine my confusion, then, when this file imported in the completely wrong space. Sometimes data comes into Maptek Vulcan in the wrong coordinate units and it is necessary to use the View > Window > Fit Layer... option to see the data on screen. I am familiar with this error but this data was MY data and drawn in MINE COORDINATES. What was the problem? I was even more confused when the data imported back into AutoCAD in the correct units. The coordinates in Vulcan were much larger than the mine coordinates should have been, about 00 times larger. After some back and forth with the consulting company it finally came to light that they do all their drafting in inches. The fix, after getting this information, was a simple scaling of the dxf file data but INCHES? Who designs in inches? Alright, I understand that AutoCAD was originally created for mechanical engineers and that drawings for machined parts could, legitimately, be drawn in inches. But we aren't in the machined parts business and neither are the mining consultants. I can't believe that anyone would be designing mine plans in anything other than feet or meters (maybe in yards if you work in coal). Inches are right out! The other thing that bothers me here is that AutoCAD recognizes the coordinate units as inches and will convert them back to feet for you. Why doesn't Maptek Vulcan do this? The coordinate units are a flag in the dxf file. I think this is something my $00,000 software should take into account. I requested an upgrade be logged for this improvement by the Mine Engineers at Maptek. I haven't received a JIRA reference number for this yet but I will update this post when (if?) it arrives. Havin this problem today myself. Thanks for the post. Thanks for your comment. I'm so glad this helped you.

0. KARL MARX WAS RIGHT. Although he claimed not to believe in God‚ he confessed in his "Design of History" to what he called the principle of History: A DRIVING FORCE BEHIND HISTORY WHICH REVEALED A PLAN FOR MAN; this Dialectics of Materialism, swinging to one way then the other, but always coming back to the middle and getting closer to the goal! 0. But if you confess to that‚ as logical thinkers you must realise that THERE HAD TO BE A DESIGN AND A PLANNER BEHIND THE PLAN. This driving Force then must be an omnipotent Power, A GOD BEHIND HISTORY, Who must have given a Plan and a Goal to History, and man is being driven to his ultimate goal whether he likes it or not! 0. Therefore, since these background chapters are really all rather self-explanatory, we will give only a small commentary on each one to help prepare you for the astounding prophecy of the future which begins to unfold in chapter 0 as THE FOUR HORSEMEN THUNDER FORTH AND THE SEVEN-SEALED BOOK OF THE FUTURE IS OPENED! 0. SO DOMITIAN, EMPEROR OF ROME AT THAT TIME, FIGURED, "WHAT CAN YOU DO WITH A GUY LIKE THIS? We can't kill him‚ so we'll just stick him some place where he can't do much damage, can't preach or witness to anybody, and where he won't accomplish too much!" 00. PATMOS WAS A 00-MILE LONG ROCKY ISLAND off the southwest coast of Asia Minor in the Aegean Sea, which adjoins the Mediterranean. It was big and inhabitable enough to have a little town on it‚ and of course the island is still there today. 00. The awesome appearance of this supernatural being so astonished John that he "fell at his feet as dead." But the Man said, "Fear not.... I am he that liveth, and was dead; and behold, I am alive for evermore‚ Amen; and have the keys of Hell and of Death." (vs.00,00) THIS, OF COURSE, COULD ONLY HAVE BEEN JESUS IN HIS HEAVENLY APPEARANCE. 00. Many of the terms used here to describe Jesus may be very literal - for instance, "His face like the sun." This literally happened to Him on earth when He was transfigured on the mount where Elijah and Moses appeared to Him (Luke chapter 0). So, ALTHOUGH SOME OF THESE ARE DEFINITELY SYMBOLIC, THEY NEVERTHELESS REPRESENT REALITY - reality which is even greater than the limited symbols used here to describe Him. 00. For instance, THE SWORD GOING OUT OF HIS MOUTH IS SYMBOLIC OF THE "SWORD OF THE SPIRIT WHICH IS THE WORD OF GOD." (Ep.0:00) But this spiritual sword is so powerful that with it He shall literally slay millions of the wicked at His Second Coming: "by His sword will the Lord plead with all flesh. And the slain of the Lord shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other." (Is.00:00; Jer.00:00) It's symbolic, but very, very real! 00. THE SEVEN STARS AND CANDLE-STICKS ARE ALSO SYMBOLIC. The 00th verse of this same chapter says. "The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches; and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches." 00. THE GENERAL PATTERN FOR THE BOOK OF REVELATION IS A PROGRESSIVE PREVIEW OF HISTORY "from the things which are," or were in John's Day, to the "things which shall be hereafter." However‚ frequently, sometimes even in the middle of chapter, the Revelation goes back into the past to give some background into whatever subject it's dealing with before showing you their future and how they wind up. 00. CHAPTER ONE IS DEFINITELY PART OF THE "THINGS WHICH ARE" IN JOHN'S DAY and it is an introduction to the vision itself. It introduces Jesus, Who is giving the Revelation through His angel, and John who is writing it. It also shows us that it is going to be about the past, present (of John's day)‚ and the future. 00. In verses 0 and 00 of chapter one‚ John named seven churches (groups of believers‚ not buildings) which were in seven Asian cities: Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamos, Thyatira‚ Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodecia. ALL OF THESE WERE NAMES OF EXPLICIT, DEFINITE CITIES OF ASIA MINOR, today known as Turkey. They were all within close distance of each other and only a short distance from the isle of Patmos. 00. The letters reveal churches in different levels of obedience and/or apostasy, and give rebukes, guidance and promises from the Lord to each one. THOUGH WRITTEN TO LITERAL CHURCHES IN ASIA, WE CAN READ THE LETTERS TODAY AS WARNINGS‚ ADVICE AND COUNSEL regarding any situation existing in our selves or in our church and take it to heart. 00. In this sense then, even though these churches were in Asia in John's day and are part of "the things which are," or were in 00 A.D., they typify all the churches which shall come "hereafter." THE PROMISES TO THESE CHURCHES HAVE HAD MANY FULFILMENTS THROUGHOUT HISTORY AND ARE NOW HAVING ULTIMATE FULFILMENTS IN THIS‚ THE LAST GENERATION. 00. Of the seven churches, Smyrna and Philadelphia are without reproof. Sardis and Laodicea have nothing good said of them except that Sardis had a "few" undefiled believers left. Ephesus, Pergamos and Thyatira are part bad, part good. THE TWO GOOD CHURCHES‚ SMYRNA AND PHILADELPHIA WERE COMPOSED OF WILDLY WILLING WORKERS AND WERE FACING PERSECUTION FROM THE SYNAGOGUE OF SATAN, the false worship system of that day - and today! 00. THE TWO VERY BAD CHURCHES GREATLY RESEMBLE THE VAST MAJORITY OF SO-CALLED CHRISTIANS TODAY: materially rich and living it up with good times, but spiritually poor and dead - Sardis, whom the Lord "will come on as a thief," and Laodicea, whom the Lord will "spue out of His mouth." 00. THE REMAINING THREE WERE FAITHFUL IN CERTAIN RESPECTS but Jesus said‚ "I have a few things against thee." In Ephesus they were losing their first love for the Lord. In Pergamos they were tolerating false teachers and idolatry. In Thyatira they were swallowing the lies of the false prophetess Jezebel who was teaching that fornication with idols or worshipping Mammon and the System were acceptable. 00. READ THEM ALL AND SEE WHERE YOU FIT! 00. "After this I (John) looked, and BEHOLD, A DOOR WAS OPENED IN HEAVEN: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said‚ Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter." In chapter 0 we found out that Jesus had a voice "as a trumpet" (0:00), so this is Jesus talking to John. 00. Now‚ SOME FALSE PROPHETS HAVE ACTUALLY MISINTERPRETED THIS VERSE AS THE RESURRECTION AND RAPTURE OF THE CHURCH BUT IT ISN'T. It is Jesus telling John to come up so that He can show him the things which must be "hereafter." So far the Revelation has dealt only with "the things which are," or were in John's day; but now Jesus tells John He's going to show him the future. 00. Jesus just called John and "immediately." He said, "I WAS IN THE SPIRIT AND BEHOLD, A THRONE WAS SET IN HEAVEN, AND ONE SAT ON THE THRONE" (0:0), the throne of the Lord God Almighty - His central Headquarters. 00. But John did see something there that we can understand, and it's in the Fifth Chapter. "I SAW IN THE RIGHT HAND OF HIM THAT SAT ON THE THRONE A BOOK WRITTEN WITHIN AND ON THE BACKSIDE, SEALED WITH SEVEN SEALS. And I beheld, and lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood A LAMB as it had been slain. 00. "All things that the Father hath are Mine," Jesus said (including this book of the future)," therefore said I, that He (the Spirit) shall take of mine‚ and shall shew it unto you," John had recorded that saying of the Lord many years earlier in his gospel (chapter 00 verse 00), and now years later, through the communication of God's eternal Spirit, JESUS IS ABOUT TO SHOW HIS BELOVED APOSTLE THE ENTIRE FUTURE OF THE WORLD! 00. THIS IS THE FIRST OF THE FAMOUS FOUR HORSEMEN OF THE APOCALYPSE who ride forth here in chapter six. "Apocalypse" is simply another name for Revelation, but it means the same thing- `to uncover.' God uses these four horsemen to "uncover" His own viewpoints on religion, war and economics. 00. The main reason why this and every chapter in Revelation that deals with the System is draped in such heavy symbolism is because GOD'S VIEWS ARE SO EXTREMELY ANTI-SYSTEM THAT IF THE ENEMIES OF THE TRUTH HAD EVER BEEN ABLE TO PROVE WHAT THIS WAS ACTUALLY SAYING, THEY WOULD HAVE BURNED EVERY COPY LONG AGO. But since the game is almost over and the End is at hand, God is letting the cat out of the bag and giving the world the whole truth and letting the chips fall where they may - so we hope you can take it. 00. 0nd Seal - "And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say‚ Come and see. And THERE WENT OUT ANOTHER HORSE THAT WAS RED: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword." (vs.0‚0) Well, who does this sound like? What takes "peace from the earth"? - WAR! THIS RED HORSE SYMBOLIZES WAR, the military and their war machines. 00. THE HORSE'S COLOUR IS VERY APPROPRIATE, REPRESENTING ALL THE BLOOD SHED IN MAN'S HELLISH WARS - wars for which God is not responsible, but which come from the pride, prejudices and avarice of man's own greedy heart. "From whence come wars and fightings among you?" James asks‚ "Come they not hence‚ even of your lusts." (Jam.0:00) The "great sword" given to him certainly symbolizes the great "improvements" in war machines and the greater frequency and greater extent of wars since the prophecy was given. 00. When God originally made the world, before anybody was rich or poor, everybody had about the same amount of land and food and things with which to build their houses, beasts to plow and carry burdens, etc. What happened then‚ was that A FEW BEGAN LEARNING A LOT OF EVIL THINGS CALLED MAN'S "WISDOM" and they began tricking, robbing, lying to and killing others so that they could get more than their share. The people who began doing this became known as the rich and powerful. These are the big multi-millionaire manufacturing merchants and money manipulators, or ruling classes of the world today. 00. The devil's power over the kingdoms of this world and his relationship with its rulers are so close that REVELATION PICTURES SATAN AND HIS KINGS AS ALMOST IDENTICAL TWINS. The devil is presented as a "dragon‚ having seven heads and ten horns" (Rev.00:0,0), and the government as "a beast...having seven heads and ten horns" (Rev.00:0; Dan.0:00). 00. And you may find this shocking, but GOD WOULD RATHER EVEN HAVE COMMUNISM, OR ROME‚ OR GREECE, OR BABYLON OR ANY KIND OF ANTI - GOD, ANTI-CHRIST, DEVIL-INSPIRED PAGAN GOVERNMENT RULE THAN HAVE NO GOVERNMENT AT ALL! Because when there is no government, then absolute iniquity and absolute horror of sin reigns rampant like in the days of Noah. So there has to be some government to keep law and order and to keep iniquity somewhat in check. Since they won't have God's government, then He has to give them the Devil's government. So we have had the beast and dragon working together and ruling the world from Egypt till today! 00. THIS PALE HORSE OF THE FOURTH SEAL, THEN, REPRESENTS THE DEVIL'S RULE IN THE KINGDOMS OF THIS WORLD. He designs them, man builds them, and their end is death and Hell - total destruction both now and forever! 00. THESE MARTYRS, THOUGH, ARE ACTUALLY GOD'S EXCEPTIONS, JUST EXAMPLES OF THE DEDICATION OF HIS WITNESSES. The majority of God's Children have usually lived to help carry on the work. But even they too must "die daily" as Paul said, because serving Jesus really kills your pride, your self, your selfishness, your egotism‚ and may even cause some considerable physical sacrifice and strain. So really, all of God's true Children are slain for their testimony. 00. 0th Seal - "AND I BEHELD WHEN HE HAD OPENED THE SIXTH SEAL, AND, LO‚ THERE WAS A GREAT EARTHQUAKE; and the Sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the Moon became as blood; And the stars of heaven (or meteors) fell unto the earth...And the heaven departed as a scroll...and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. 00. Here we have the ultimate goal of 0,000 years of history: THE GLORIOUS SECOND COMING OF THE LAMB OF GOD‚ JESUS CHRIST (Jn.0:00) to mete out His violent wrath upon the wicked and rescue the saints of all ages by the miracle of the resurrection and rapture. 00. What we have actually seen, then, under these six seals is a panorama of history from John's day up to the very end. Then, AT THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST, THE WHITE HORSE AND THE RESURRECTED MARTYRS EMERGE AS VICTORS OVER THE OTHER THREE HORSEMEN: the kings (pale horse)‚ the rich men (black horse), and the captains (red horse). This is also presented in more detail in Rev.00 and 00. 00. Jesus predicted in His famous Endtime discourse of Mt.00 that THERE WOULD BE AN INCREASE IN WAR, FAMINE, PESTILENCE AND EARTHQUAKES, LEADING EVENTUALLY TO "AFFLICTION, SUCH AS WAS NOT FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE CREATION," and that these calamities would get so bad that "except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect's (or Christians') sake‚ whom He (God) hath chosen, He hath shortened those days." (Mt.00:0,00,00; Mk.00:00‚00) In other words, Jesus was saying that one day man would reach such an impasse that letting him continue unchecked would result in the destruction of everyone on Earth. However, WHEN MAN FINALLY REACHES THAT SUICIDAL POINT, HE SAID GOD WOULD SHORTEN THE DAYS, which in the Greek literally means to stop the days, or stop those days of man's suicidal attempts to destroy the Earth. And the way God will stop it, Jesus said, was by His own Second Coming to punish the evil doers, take over the world, and rule it the way God wants. 00. ONLY WITHIN THE LAST THIRTY YEARS HAS THE HUMAN RACE DEVELOPED THE POTENTIAL TO DESTROY ITSELF. The military (Red Horse) have their nuclear bombs, satellites and intercontinental missiles. It fact, they right now have enough atomic bombs to over kill the earth's entire population several times. The rich (Black Horse) in their pursuit of the almighty dollar are finally succeeding in polluting the entire earth - a by-product of twentieth century technology! The rich (especially the U.S.) have been responsible for starting this century's great wars, and their hoarding and wasting of their riches is threatening another one! And it is their unchecked greed which will be responsible for the worldwide famine that even the scientists are predicting will occur by the late 0000's! 00. Meanwhile governments (Pale Horse) have become bestial monsters destroying whole nations in their pursuit of power, and martyring whole nationalities‚ races and creeds who don't agree with them or their devilish policies! - Yes, TODAY MAN HAS ALMOST FINALLY REACHED THAT HORRIBLE TIME WHICH JESUS SAID WOULD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDE HIS SECOND COMING. However‚ the worst is not here yet. So don't worry, the coming of Christ isn't going to happen any minute - Ha! HE IS COMING SOON, BUT HE IS NOT COMING BEFORE ALL THE SIGNS ARE FULFILLED WHICH HAVE TO PRECEDE HIS COMING. 00. As the Apostle Paul said, "Now we beseech you, brethren‚ by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together (Resurrection and Rapture) unto Him." (Notice he said "the coming," showing there is only one coming to rapture the Church, not two.) "That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word nor by letter as from us (nor, we might add, from some churchy false prophets of today) as that the day of Christ is at hand!" (0Th.0:0,0) in other words, DON'T LET ANYBODY DECEIVE YOU INTO BELIEVING THAT THE DAY OF CHRIST OR THE SECOND COMING AND RAPTURE OF THE CHURCH CAN HAPPEN AT ANY TIME BECAUSE IT IS NOT "AT HAND!" The falling away, which in the Greek means "apostasy' or departing from the faith. This has been happening throughout all church history, but in these last days it will become, and is becoming, greater. The "man of sin" has to be revealed. This is the man commonly referred to throughout Bible prophecy as the ANTICHRIST; THE ENDTIME WORLD DICTATOR. 00. During the first 0 0/0 years, he will allow them to have their religious freedom. BUT IN THE "MIDST OF THE WEEK," AFTER 0 0/0 YEARS, HE WILL BREAK THE COVENANT, causing their religious freedom to cease and setting up an "abomination of desolation" - an idol or image of himself - and demanding all to worship it or be killed. 00. When will you see it? - In the midst of the week, or seven years, Dan.0:00! THIS GREAT TRIBULATION, THEREFORE, WILL BEGIN IN THE "MIDST OF THE WEEK" and will continue throughout the remaining 0 0/0 years of the "seven year" covenant! - "Until the consummation (or completion of the seven years), and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate." 00. All that to say this: THERE ARE SOME DEFINITE SPECIFIC EVENTS THAT HAVE TO TAKE PLACE BEFORE CHRIST CAN COME BACK. There is this seven-year Covenant, for one, and the Abomination of Desolation resulting in 0 0/0 years of Great Tribulation of the Church‚ for another. There is the Antichrist world dictator who must yet arise to place this Abomination, which means we need a world government, which means we've got another World War yet to go! 00. ALL OF THESE EVENTS MUST HAPPEN BEFORE THE EVENTS DESCRIBED UNDER THE SIXTH SEAL, THE WRATH AND SECOND COMING, CAN OCCUR. Since these first six seals present the whole span of history from the Ascension to the Second Coming, they are in a sense like God taking a camera and doing a real quick "pan" of history from the beginning to the very end‚ just like they often do in movies to give the setting for the story they are about to tell us. 00. THEN WITH THE SEVENTH SEAL, WHICH OPENS IN THE EIGHT CHAPTER, GOD TAKES HIS CAMERA AND ZOOMS IN FOR A CLOSE-UP of the last few years of this period, the central theme of the Revelation containing the story of the Great Tribulation‚ the Second Coming, and the ushering in of Christ's Millennial Kingdom on earth. 00. CHAPTER SIX, THEN, IS A TABLE OF CONTENTS OF THE MAIN CHARACTERS yet to be uncovered in the remainder of the Revelation‚ presented as a brief summary of history from the Ascension to the Second Coming of Christ! 000. "And after these things I (John) saw four angels...holding the four winds of the earth. And THERE WERE SEALED AN HUNDRED AND FORTY AND FOUR THOUSAND OF ALL THE TRIBES OF THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL."(vs.0-0) Verses 0-0 list the names of the twelve tribes of Israel‚ 00,000 from each tribe being sealed. 000. THESE 000,000 WHICH RECEIVE THE SEAL OF GOD ARE NOT PHYSICAL ISRAEL. THEY ARE THE TRUE SPIRITUAL ISRAEL. As the Apostle Paul said, "They are not all Israel, which are of Israel. which came out of Great Tribulation." (vs.0-00) - And in the original that means the Great Tribulation, the one that precedes the Second Coming of Christ! 000. THE DEVIL, WHO IS THE GREAT COUNTERFEITER, IS GOING TO BE OUT SEALING HIS CHILDREN TOO at this time, putting a mark in their right hand or forehead, which is the famous MARK OF THE BEAST (the Antichrist dictator and his government) - 000. (Rev.00:00) And all those who refuse to bow down to him will be killed. 000. WHOSE BRAND ARE YOU GOING TO TAKE? WILL YOU DIE FOR THE TRUTH AND LIVE FOREVER? Or will you live for the lie and die forever? If you don't drop out and serve Jesus now, tomorrow may be too late!

The sense of sight, said Aristotle is preferred "to everything else. The reason is that this, most of all the senses makes us know and brings to light many differences between things" (Metaphysics, 00A000). If one looks an eye straight on, several important structures are recognizable, including the pupil, which is the black circle in the center of the eye that dilates and constricts in response to light; the iris, which is the colored muscular structure that allows the pupil to change its size; the transparent cornea, which is really the window of the eye; and the lens. The latter focuses light through the pupil onto the retina at the back of the eye, much as a lens in a camera focuses images onto film. Images are then transformed into electrical signals that are transmitted to the visual cortex at the back of the brain. The space in the eyeball between the lens and the retina is filled with a viscous clear liquid known as vitreous humor (see Figure 0). With age, many changes (some virtually universal, and others arising from age-related disease) threaten the quality of vision. For instance, tear glands often work less well, leading many older adults to suffer from dry eyes (easily treated with artificial tears). Lax muscles around the eye can result in the lower lid margin rotating away from the eyeball (ectropion) or an inward migration of the eyelashes and eyelid toward the globe (entropion). In the conjunctiva (the skin on the inside of the lid and covering the white part of the eye), tiny blood vessels can rupture, giving rise to localized accumulation of blood akin to a bruise (subconjunctival hemorrhage). Though unsightly, it is not serious and usually does not signify any underlying disorder. It can clear up spontaneously in six to eight days. Particularly in people who are near-sighted, "floaters" (tiny, condensed debris floating in the vitreous humor) are common and of little consequence. However, any sudden increase in the number of floaters, particularly if accompanied by flashing lights, can herald the onset of serious retinal problems, and requires a thorough eye examination as soon as possible. Other age-related eye problems can also threaten vision and require evaluation by an ophthalmologist. Corneal ulcers, tumors on or near the eye, inflammation of the structures of the eyeball, occlusion of retinal vessels, and any sudden loss of vision are among them. Three common sight-threatening disorders are described here in more detail. Each can result in problems sufficient to meet the World Health Organization's definition of visual impairment (i.e., visual acuity less than 00/00 in the better eye). Overall, about 0-0 percent of the population age seventy and over suffers from such impairment.

In last night's episode of T.I. and Tiny: The Family Hustle, S0 E0, T.I.'s son (Tiny's step-son) Domani [Harris] believes he was racially profiled. Domani explains to the family that when he was out at an event "this man did have him feeling some type of way". The family laughed it off at first, until he continued to say, "I think I was racially profiled and basically treated like a criminal". Domani said he was walking into an event and the manager stopped him and gave him two options, let him check his bag or go. T.I. asked did he ask to search anyone else to which Domani answered no. Domani said he was going to leave but the people he was with said to let the manager check his bag. Domani let the manager search his bag and after finding only his hard drive and work equipment, the manager continued to harass him saying that Domani had been in there before and he'd kicked him out for bringing in a gun. Even asked security to come outside. Clearly Domani was confused for someone else, but does that make it okay? This situation put the Harris family on alert and T.I. into action. T.I., along with his sons Messiah and Domani, met with his lawyer Jonathan on how to respond. After some discussion, Domani curbed that idea. He didn't want to spend any more energy on it, he just doesn't want it to happen to other people. The experience was upsetting enough for him and he would rather not give it anymore energy. A mature decision but is it the right one? After a visit to T.I.'s old neighborhood, T.I., explained to his son's Messiah and Domani that racial profiling was the norm. That was something people in that neighborhood always dealt with and that was that. But because his children are so fortunate to not be in that area, they are still subject to the same kind of treatment. Peaking Domani's passion for the situation. Wanting to make sure this never happened to anyone else, Domani proposed getting into the studio so he can "be a voice for the community". Turning a negative into a positive! Looking forward to hearing the track Domani!

Today, I'm talking about bad habits. Everybody has at least one bad habit. Emily, Jake, Drake, Mike, and myself are here today to share our bad habits. Feel free to share your bad habits too! Procrastination. -When it comes to school, I put the pro in procrastination. Impulsive. -Sometimes, I have these impulsive sprees. It's like a shopping spree, but worse. Thinking things through can be a tough task sometimes! What My Momma said: "I don't know where to start!" Haha, thanks Momma. One of my bad habits is that sometimes, I care too much about what others think. I'm scared to speak my mind when it matters most. I try to handle things on my own instead of asking for help when I need it. Enough about me. Let's talk about some of Jake's bad habits that really irritate me sometimes. He can be hard to talk to sometimes. The littlest things can make him jealous. Who knew he was the jealous type? Oh, who am I kidding? I love all of his habits- good or bad. Such kind words, Sweetness. Thanks. :) I'll work on those habits. I, on the other hand, will not list any of Emily's habits. I'm just that nice. (That probably made Sweetness smile.) Let's see...my bad habits? Occasionally, I get my priorities mixed up. I have to agree with Emily. Sometimes, I talk when I should keep my mouth shut and listen. I don't always handle things as I should. Someone thinks I have bad habits? What?! I don't think I have any bad habits. I can list some for you. Way too hyper early in the morning. Emily is my baby girl. I have to admit that pretty much let her do whatever she wants. I have a hard time saying no to my little girl. That's my biggest bad habit. Well, I hope you enjoyed everyone sharing their bad habits. Except for Drake that is. :) What are some of your bad habits? Do you share any with us? Please share!

The show must go on? When high school administrators and school board members don't like the theatre director's choice ... maybe not. When a high school production gets cancelled, or is under threat to be, there are two for-sures: the teachers and students are shocked and surprised; and the action tends to draw media attention. SD spoke with three high school theatre directors in such a situation, and while they had three different outcomes, there are common threads to their experience: they all came out of the controversy stronger, wiser and proven correct that talented kids can handle mature, challenging material. Carrie at North Farmington Hills High School, Mich. "Ours was a compelling story, complete with controversy, which ended with our most successful production ever," says Dean Cobb. Dean, who with his wife, Sue, has a long rich history of successful shows in North Farmington Hills, a suburb of Detroit. They chose to put on the musicalCarrie this spring, thinking little about it beyond their excitement of being the first high school in the Midwest to put on this new work. They left that board meeting not only wondering if the show would go on but if it was worth fighting for. They had their answer when the drama group got together and they voted to keep going with the production. It ended in an emotional, applause-filled meeting. "When they decided that they weren't going to shut it down, it was one of the neatest moments of my career," Dean says. Meanwhile, to keep the production on track, the kids stepped into the fray. They grabbed onto the lyric phrase, "What does it cost to be kind?" and put it on wristbands. It became a rallying cry and that, with the Cobbs continuing to meeting with anyone with any concerns, kept the production on track. "We feel that Carrie has its place in high school, and could be a viable addition to any high school theatre season," adds Sue. "You may have some bumps along the way, but the message at the end is so dramatic and compelling that we believe it's worthwhile," finishes Dean.

Η Ευρωπαϊκή Επιτροπή έχει δεσμεύσει 00 εκατ. για να επενδύσει στην καινοτομία τους επόμενους 00 μήνες. Ένα νέο εργαλείο που βοηθά γιατρούς να επικοινωνούν με ασθενείς που δεν ανταποκρίνονται, ένας ελεγκτής άρδευσης που βασίζεται σε cloud και βελτιώνει την αποδοτικότητα του νερού σε φάρμες κατά 00%, μια ηλεκτρονική μύτη που θα προσδιορίζει την φρεσκάδα του φαγητού σας, είναι μερικές από τις 00 τεχνολογικές επιχειρήσεις και startups που θα λάβουν χρηματοδότηση από την Ε.Ε. GEOAPPS will reduce the time (from 0-0 days to 0 hour) and the cost (from 000€ to 00€) needed for geotechnical engineers to take measures in field work, to process them and report to the client. 0patch is an innovative global platform for transforming security knowledge into concrete and immediate solution. It changes the game by channeling the knowledge of security researchers (who so far could only write or speak about vulnerabilities) into directly solving the problem: creating fixes for bugs, and getting paid for that by end users. The project will support commercialisation of disruptive high-speed communication protocols. TORUS has 0 products in the market (Java Fast Sockets, Universal Fast Sockets and FastMPJ) which are up to 00 times faster than TCP/IP. These products reduce significantly the time-to-results of critical software, providing significant competitive advantages in multiple sectors, particularly for financial services, real time Big Data analytics (with multiple applications, such as real time online advertising), biotech (supporting DNA processing in hours, instead of weeks), and defense/space (FastMPJ has reduced up to 00% the time to distribute satellite images of ESA's Gaia Mission). The concept is based on optical injection locking (OIL) and allows directly modulated lasers to be used to encode data. Coherent 000G transmission will migrate to shorter reach and wider usage in metropolitan networks (00-000km range) and in enterprise and access at shorter distances. Pastguide is an app that will read tourists' user location and will run a 0D scene with events and people who lived in the location in the past. Scenes will match what user sees behind the tablet at this location. Gamified tasks will provide additional learning value. BitBrain has developed a neurotechnology solution able to measure emotions fully adapted to the market research sector This solution has 0 main innovations: (i) two new measurement devices adapted to the market research sector; (ii) encapsulation and integration within the technology of all neuroscience knowledge on design-execution of experiments and on elaborated data analysis, in a completely transparent manner for the user; and (iii) presentation of results in a comprehensible language for the market researcher and the client.. A new form of Non-destructive Techniques (NDT), based on Near Infrared (NIR) inline inspection and detection of defects within products in production lines. This has been validated for non-metallic engineering materials and is capable of providing a rapid, more informative and cost-effective NDT solution for composite manufacturers and end users. The SignSigma technology allows verifying a person's identity from the dynamic parameters of their biometric signature with an extremely very low error ratio, using a common tablet or smartphone. Alterix offers a new generation of interactive whiteboards that will support multi-touch finger input (current touch sensing solutions, while adding thousands of dollars to the cost of a large display, are striving to meet the technical specification for multi-touch interfaces). IMoHEALTH project will develop a cloud-based analytics platform for population health data; this will allow users to explore and analyse population health data through an interactive and easy to use interface. The project will build, for the first time, an affordable, user-friendly platform that brings together population health data from multiple sources and enables it to be easily presented and ‘mined' for a wide range of purposes. Pixpolar has invented, developed and patented a third fundamentally new image sensor pixel readout configuration called the Modified Internal Gate (MIG) that provides superior low light performance when compared to the two other older technologies. This will allow, for example, image sensors in cameras to read a pixel specific signal even in non-optimal low light conditions. The project will try to provide a new product and business concept within the growing market for Medical Imaging Information Systems (which includes PACS and HISE). The product, MD-PACS is a cost-effective and fully reliable PACS with embedded HISE for radiology, laboratory and cardiovascular specialties. The market is dominated by large players which impose costly contracts; the project will open and lead this market by reducing PACS and HISE costs for healthcare organisations by 00%. GALNIMBUS will improve irrigation water use efficiency up to 00% by developing a cloud-based irrigation controller able to perfectly match irrigation and fertigation doses to crop needs. The project aims at providing the missing technological base for Beyond-line-of-sight navigation needed to cross through areas with obstacles like buildings in cities or diverse topographical factors. This will pave the way to deploy Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) for public safety applications (disaster, rescue, etc.) or precision agriculture (maturity measurement, crop control, disease detection, fertilizer deployment), thus unfolding both huge commercial and societal impact. REVIVOS will commercialize a technology solution for synthesizing new songs with the voice of famous artists. The innovation of this project is the potential commercialization of Virtual Singers modeled from original artist recordings. The synthetic voice shall preserve not only their timbre but also the expression and singing style that make them unique. This project has a clear global dimension, focusing on the Western markets because they share a common popular music culture. Potential applications include among others the production of posthumous live shows, the release of new compositions, or the rejuvenation of the voice of a living or retired artist. OWNER-CHIP will authenticate manufactured products with a unique, embedded verification technology. This will protect the brand owners/IP licensors from counterfeiting and will enable added functionality and enriched content via mobile phone and gaming platforms (digital-physical extension). QFast0 will perform a feasibility study for the market introduction of the first Rapid Multi-Target Pathogen Detection Kit. This is a revolutionary product that will enable the fast (<00h), cost-effective and simultaneous detection of three different pathogens (Salmonella, Listeria Monocytogenes and Staphylococcus) directly on-site for food&feed safety industry by non-specialised personnel, with a platform that allows the user to implement the instrument within its own information technology protocol, with full traceability of the sample through the overall process. Sedicii aims at commercialising, promoting and supporting innovative methods of authenticating users online. The ability to authenticate a user without the need to store or expose the personal information of the user will provide significant benefits to holders of such data. This project will develop miniaturized 0D cameras for mobile phones, tablets and laptop computers; more specifically, embedded camera modules providing 0D and 0D-Images, integrating image-sensing electronics and light-field optics in a single lens Wafer Level Camera (WLC). DIGISTONE aims at addressing a major market opportunity in the supply of large, concrete multimedia displays primarily for outdoor digital signage and commercial applications. In particular, it will develop an innovative, intelligent building material in the format of a concrete media façade/display or information sculpture - a Digital Concrete Screen System (DIGISTONE) and will have a functional prototype ready by the end of 0000 (TRL0). The project's overall objective is to provide both new brain-computer interface (BCI) technologies and an innovative business model focused on user-centered assessment and communication for persons with disorders of consciousness (DOCs). Across different studies, up to 00% of patients who had been designated as nonresponsive (including in a vegetative state (VS) or minimally conscious state (MCS) were in fact able to communicate through new BCI systems developed for such patients. The project will deliver an "electronic nose": a market-ready, unique and innovative at a world level electronic device and mobile application to determine the quality and freshness of meat, poultry, fish and other groceries. Currently, structured health data stored in proprietary systems (owned by the vendor and not by the health organization) are not shared, making care coordination, real-time analytics and knowledge discovery very difficult. The platform is vendor-neutral, big-data, high-performance platform designed to store,manage,query, retrieve and exchange structured electronic health record data based on open standards. The ALG platform is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) web application through which businesses can share their administrative documents and can benefit from alerts and always up-to-date documents. Deploying this solution at a European scale will, among others, help eliminate redundant processes and costs related to the diffusion and the collect of administrative documents. The project will develop a flexible High Performance Computing grid able to reuse the heat emitted by calculation units in huge data centres for heating houses and other premises. The project will use Optical Frequency Combs that can displace single mode lasers used in long haul optical transport equipment for two decades. This will allow the use of new modulation techniques, to increase the data carrying capacity and spectral efficiency of optical telecommunications networks, currently under huge strain by the rise of mobile video, video-on-demand and other bandwidth-intensive services. The project will test the market potential of a disruptive technology that has achieved the world's first laser-laundered shirts. This could help reduce energy and water consumption bills, improve time efficiency of laundering processes and make life easier. Virtual platforms have been mainly used to support anticipation of embedded software (eSW) development of very complex System on Chip (SoC) or for Software-based functional validation of complex IP. The explosion of the number of connected things change the complexity paradigm: the challenge is now to manage hundreds of distributed platforms (SoCs or boards) that include processors, sensors, MEMs and communication devices. Using physical board to prototype each of these platforms to verify the overall system behaviour is too expensive and not scalable for system providers. PILoTS would save time and cost, during design, verification and certification, and vastly improve competitiveness. This is a cloud service aiming to create the next leap in push messaging by gathering sensory information from mobile devices, analysing big data and providing real-time insight using machine learning, data mining and home-grown pattern-matching algorithms.

"August: Osage County" is such a good movie they can just title it by the month and county it takes place. Violet (Meryl Streep from "The Iron Lady") and Beverly (Sam Shepard from "Mud") have been married for a long, long time. He was once a great poet who is now relegated to caregiver and perennial alcoholic. Violet has a "touch of cancer" but not enough for anyone to feel sorry for her. When Beverly goes missing one day, she has an excuse to be the pill addict she has always been. With Beverly in the wind, her sister and three daughters come home. While Ivy (Julianne Nicholson from "Shadows & Lies") has stayed in the area, Barbara (Julia Roberts from "Larry Crowne") and Karen (Juliette Lewis from "Foreverland") have each moved several states away. These girls do not come home out of love or respect for Violet. They come home because of family, because that is what you are supposed to do. Like most families, this is a group of people you would never hang out with if you were not genetically obligated. Tracy Letts, who wrote the screenplay as well as the play the movie is based on, has such a delicate hand as he slices this family to the core. Director John Wells ("The Company of Men") exploits this family dynamic in a house with the best porches I have ever seen. The movie is full of wonderful moments and awkward situations. Many of the other great movies of 0000 had some kind of gimmick they were built around, like slavery, outer space or AIDS. Not this movie. There is nothing cool, or hip or edgy here. This movie is about family and how that tree branches off in the most peculiar ways. The dream cast gives the kind of performances we rarely see. The supporting casts all deserve Oscars, especially Margo Martindale ("Beautiful Creatures") as Mattie Fay, Violet's sister. You could pick any two characters here and make a movie about them. None of these people are likable, and none of them like each other, but they are family. The dinner table scene reminded me of "00 Angry Men." Everyone was guilty of something and nobody had all the facts. So for me, the verdict is in, and this great play is now a great movie. Although it may be hard to watch, I can't find any fault with this movie. Therefore I must give it 0 stars out of 0. As they say in this movie, "We all do things we are not proud of," but it's great when it happens to somebody else.

Valentine's Day is less than a week away now which means it's time to start thinking about flowers, chocolate, teddy bears, and, of course, your loved ones. This special holiday of love can either be a great thing or a not so great thing depending on who you ask. Some people enjoy it while others can't wait to get it over with. Junior Amber Mount says there isn't much she likes about Valentine's Day, but there certainly are a whole lot of things she dislikes. "I honestly don't like anything about Valentine's Day. I dislike everything about it," said Mount. People can do a number of things on Valentine's Day, like going to see a movie, going out to eat, or just having fun with that special someone. For those who happen to be single this year, they have the freedom to do whatever they want, even if it means staying home and watching Netflix all night. "On Valentine's Day I usually just sit at home and watch Netflix," said Mount. Whether you're in a relationship or not, Valentine's Day is a time where you will be surrounded by love no matter what. If you're wishing you had a significant other to celebrate with, don't feel bad. There are plenty of people out there who will be having their own fun this year. "For any girl or boy who's going to be single for it this year, I feel you. Come hang with me," said Mount.

New tweet by FYROM's PM Zaev with reference again to plain "Macedonia"! The report by the British BBC entitled "Greece's invisible minority - The Macedonian Slavs" triggered a series of serious political reactions in Greece against Tsipas' actions regarding the Prespes Agreement with the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM). The news network argues that this "minority", up until the Prespa Agreement, was not recognized by the Greek state. According to the report, with the ratification of the Prespes Agreement Greece acknowledged the existence of "Macedonian language and ethnicity". Yet Greece refused the existence of the "Macedonian minority" for decades. Greek diplomatic sources on Saturday afternoon wrongfully stressed that "the Prespa Agreement eliminates any room for raising a minority issue". However, the Prespes Agreement has a series of elements that undermine peace, stability and security in the Balkans as it feeds irredentism by indirectly supporting the propaganda of FYROM. The BBC report, as the same diplomatic sources point out, contain inaccurate and distorted information about the Prespa Agreement and history. Tomorrow, as they argue, a letter will be sent to the BBC, rejecting the unacceptable claims of the reporter. The opposition parties have launched a salvo of criticism to Tsipras' handling of this issue of national importance saying that the negative results of the Prespes Agreement have appeared almost immediately after the its ratification.

Blue - in all its glorious shades from cornflower to navy - gives a New Canaan house its fresh, youthful feel. The color palette is established in the entry hall, thanks to an exuberant striped wallpaper from Stroheim that designer Lynn Morgan paired with the homeowners' own console table and mirror. The blue motif is repeated in family room accessories. Manicured plantings underscore the formality of the Colonial Revival architecture. The atmosphere is relaxed in the living room, with colors borrowed from a Cuban painting over the fireplace. A skirted table divides the room into two seating areas. A console table was turned into a bar to draw people into the living room. A console table was turned into a bar to draw people into the living room. To lighten the formality of the owners' mahogany dining set, Morgan upholstered the chair backs in a blue zebra print and introduced a sisal area rug and clear glass chandelier. The neighboring butler's pantry was turned into a wet bar. Brass accents add a historic sheen to the kitchen, whose table extends out from a marble-topped island. A second island anchors the adjacent prep-and-cleanup area. A spare bedroom was turned into a bright, efficient office for Arlety. The palette is more peaceful in the master bedroom, where the custom bed is topped with Legacy Linens. Blue is paired with orange in son Juan-Carlos's bedroom, which once belonged to hockey great Max Pacioretty. The house sits on 0.0 acres, and includes a barn and this guest house, where the Bowman family lived while the main house was being remodeled. Philip and Arlety Bowman have a serious case of the blues And they couldn't be happier about it. From navy to cornflower to cerulean, the color washes over their New Canaan residence like a spring rain, giving the 0000 Colonial Revival home a clean, bold feeling that's defiantly contemporary, yet completely in sync with the architecture's roots. "Clean and bold" are not words that came to mind the first time the Bowmans saw the house three years ago. Although the structure had been attractively remodeled by the previous owners back in the 0000s, the creamy interiors felt more elegant than exuberant. And with two young children at home (daughter Consuelo, now nine, and son Juan-Carlos, seven), the Bowmans wanted a place that was breezy, youthful, and lighthearted. To achieve that, interior designer Lynn Morgan banished all traces of cream from the home, lacquering the woodwork a white as pure as new-fallen snow. "The trim made it younger and livelier," she notes. While blue dominates the interior, Morgan limited it to a few statement pieces in each room and kept almost everything else white, so the color never overwhelms. "It's the balance that keeps it really fresh," she says. Even in the entry hall, where the blue-striped walls feel as giddy as a circus tent, the effect is more disarming than dogmatic. "That just kind of brings you into the spirit of the house," observes the designer, who collaborated on the project with associate Jim Ribaudo. Morgan applied more white lacquer to the living room's coffered ceiling, then painted the planes in between the palest shade of (what else?) blue, to draw the eye upward. Inspired by a Cuban painting above the living room fireplace, she punctuated the palette with a few heady splashes of orange, in tribute to Arlety's homeland. To underscore the Cuban connection, the designer dressed the living room's French doors in gauzy white curtains that billow in the breeze, and even placed a palm tree atop the table dividing the room's two seating areas. She used a similar approach in the sun-filled family room, papering the walls behind the bookcases with a mod Lee Jofa print. "We wanted to give the room a little more spark, and the wallpaper did the trick," Morgan says. Here, as elsewhere, she employed indoor-outdoor fabrics to make the interior more kid-friendly. The oversized ottoman is upholstered in a royal blue outdoor canvas from Glant, while the pillows peppering the back of the sectional are covered in an all-weather fabric from Lee Jofa. Any textile that wasn't indoor-outdoor was treated with a protective finish - including the carpets, most of which are wool sisal. The blue-and-orange motif reappears in Juan-Carlos's room, this time in the form of horizontal stripes painted on the walls. An orange egg chair and matching accent pieces underscore the opposites-attract approach. Although his bedroom is considerably smaller than that of his sister, Juan-Carlos doesn't mind, since it once belonged to hockey great Max Pacioretty of the Montreal Canadiens - a legendary figure around New Canaan. "A lot of his friends at school cannot believe he sleeps in Max Pacioretty's room," says Arlety, adding that the landscapers found pucks and hockey sticks lurking behind nearly every shrub. Although the Bowmans were looking for an old house that had already been remodeled, they weren't above making a few changes. Working with architectural designer Judith Larson and contractor The Gardiner Group, they tweaked the circulation, expanded the master closets, reconfigured the upstairs bathrooms, turned a pair of bedrooms into a playroom for the children and an office for Arlety, added an ample laundry room and, most significant, completely remodeled the kitchen. Although the former kitchen was spacious, much of it was given over to seating, leaving the actual cooking area a bit cramped and short on storage and counter space. Larson gutted the room and started from scratch, establishing separate cooking and cleanup zones - each with its own island. "What's really nice about the way it's set up is that one or two people can be there preparing food, and people don't have to walk past them to get to something else in the kitchen," she says. To maximize seating, Arlety asked for a table that was an extension of the island. Larson granted the wish, designing an oak-topped table that seats nine and rests atop a base made of brass pipes. Arlety liked the way the metal complemented the home's vintage character, so Larson and Morgan repeated it in the plumbing and lighting fixtures and, again at Arlety's request, replaced all the home's modern light switches with push-button brass ones.

The Colour Card is a solid background the same size as the camera. The Colour Card lets you fill the scene's background with a solid colour when there is no background image. If no background or colour card is added to the scene, the resulting export will appear with a black background. By default, the Colour Card has a Z ordering value of 00 Backward. This puts the Colour card behind all elements that have a value lower than 00 Backward. Most of the time, the Colour card will appear automatically behind all the scenes elements as they are all set to 0 Backward, unless you have changed the Z ordering of the scene components. If so, the Colour Card will be in front of the elements that are pushed back to more than 00 fields backward. The value used to determine composition order when the Z value of two elements is the same. Offset Z The front-back position of the Colour Card layer in 0D space. This value can be verified in the Top view. The colour and transparency of the Colour Card. You can also attach these parameters to function columns to change their values over time.

Working with the plants in a respectful way and honoring their friendly spirits can increase the potency of the medicine you make as well as promote successful crops and business. Many cultures traditionally work with the plants in a prayerful way. Center yourself. Take a few deep breaths to calm your mind and body. Release any anxiety or sense of urgency about what you are doing. Be still and focus on your breathing until you feel calm and relaxed. Feel happy to be outside enjoying the healing gifts of nature. Connect with the plants. Gaze over the plant community where you want to gather. Speak your intention (for example) " We are here today to gather the herbs that want to be made into a healing botanical oil for us to share with our families and community. Those that want to join our project make yourselves apparent to us." Offer a gift of tobacco, a song, a prayer of thanks, or whatever is meaningful to you in advance for the plant's service of enriching your life. Stay calm and connected. Go to the plants that attract you the most. Gather with thoughts of peace, beauty, and health in your mind. Continue with a prayerful attitude through all the steps of herbal medicine making. Collect only abundant species of native and nonnative plants that grow wild in your area. Never gather all you see. Be respectful of the animals that live there. Leave some of the flowers to re-seed the area. Have a sensitivity to the natural world. Walk gently on the earth and gather respectfully with thoughts of wellness, beauty, and peace. Enjoy being in nature. Be a steward of the land you are working with. Pick up trash and dispose of it properly. It is illegal to harvest in wilderness areas, state and national parks. Obtain permission from private land owners. Many states have restrictions on which plants you may harvest. Learn which plants are endangered. United Plant Savers is a nonprofit education corporation dedicated to preserving native medicinal plants. They have many useful books and posters. Gather seeds and cuttings. Never collect all the seeds, and don't dig up all the roots. Once you've grown your own plants from wild seeds put a few plants back in the wild to restore their population. I use gathering baskets when harvesting herbs and have used lightweight trash cans and grain bags when gathering seeds. Wear light-colored long sleeve shirt and long pants, hiking boots, sun hat, cotton gloves. Be sure to be prepared for any weather changes and take appropriate water and food. To harvest the leaves of edible and medicinal herbs you will need scissors and a gathering basket. Gather the leaves of the plants early to mid summer when you see flower buds forming but before they bloom. At this time most of the plants healing power are in the leaves. The best time of day to gather is mid morning after the dew has left the leaves. Usually you can get 0-0 cuttings per season. Using scissors or simple garden shears, you can either select specific stems to cut or give the whole plant a trim by cutting the stem about 0″ from its base or 0/0 of the plant. Cut high enough up on the stem to leave some green leaves left so it can continue growing. To dry the leaves of herbs you will need yarn or string. Separate the fresh-cut plants into bundles that are about 0″ in diameter. Hold a bundle in your hand with the ends stacked together. Wrap the string around several times then tie in a knot. Leave a couple of inches of string at the ends so you can hang the herbs for drying. A free-standing wooden clothes rack works well. Dry for 0-0 days in a clean, dark place. Be sure they are completely dried by testing the leaves. They should be crisp and easily fall off the stem when pulled. Crumble with your hands or for uniform size, place in a blender on low-speed for a few seconds. Compost the stems. Store the dried herbs in a glass jar in a cupboard for up to 0 year. Label and date for future use. Gather flowers during the summer in the morning once the sun has evaporated the dew off the flowers. For low growing plants flower tops can be snipped at the base near the blossom stem and dried on screens or in baskets. For plants with lots of leaves and flowers, snip flowers and leaves 0″ from the plant base. Tie in bundles by the stem, and hang upside down in a well-ventilated place. Drying usually takes 0-0 days. To test dryness, the flower head should snap easily from stem. Cut the flowers off the stems with scissors. Flowers can be stored whole or chopped. Store each flower type in its own container until ready to use. Label & date for future use. Gather Seeds in late summer. Gather by cutting the plant when the seeds start to turn brown, often 0-0 weeks after flowering. Place inside a paper bag with stem tips hanging out. Fasten the stems and bag closed with string. When the seeds are completely dry, store in an airtight container. Label and date the herbs for future use. Gather Roots in the fall. When the plant top starts to die back, loosen dirt around the plant with a garden fork being careful not to damage the root. Rinse dirt off the roots in a bucket of water. Many roots can dry really hard and then are difficult to break into smaller pieces. It is best to slice the roots into desirable size prior to drying. After cleaning the roots, slice with a sharp knife. If you can reserve a knife and cutting board just for herbal preparations that is good. Dry the roots on screens or in baskets. When the roots are completely dry, store in an airtight container, label and date the herbs for future use.
