Bay Roberts Community Gardens: Located on Playground Road, the Bay Roberts Community Gardens is one of our longest running projects. This past year, we have planted over 2000 tulips and installed a beautiful fountain surrounded by gorgeous shrubbery and trees. Our Community Gardens also houses a outdoor stage where this past summer we held a local talent event, “Acoustic Night in the Gardens” with proceeds going to our local food bank.
Bay Roberts Veggie Patch: Just behind our National Historic Site, the Cable Building, we have established the “Bay Roberts Veggie Patch”, a beautiful vegetable garden. This vegetable garden contains 12 vegetable beds that can be purchased by people in our community and they can use them to grow a variety of vegetables and flowers. Recently, we have implemented a rain water recovery program & composting areas which continue to excel the garden’s success!

Sept. 25 (UPI) — A tour vehicle on safari in South Africa had to stop on a dirt road when a pair of wrestling elephants blocked the path.
The video, filmed on a road through Tembe Elephant Park in KwaZulu Natal, shows the vehicle stop in the dirt road due to two elephants using their trunks to play fight in the middle of the road.
The vehicle catches the attention of one of the pachyderms, and it approaches from the side.
The elephant comes uncomfortably close to a man’s face and strikes an intimidating pose, but the group said the animal eventually walked away without incident. |

See what others are saying about Guy Overby and “Team O” and post your testimonial comment below.
Guy has many years experience from all perspectives in the sport of bodybuilding. If your just starting out or you have many years experience choosing team O is a wise choice. I have alway recommended him to family and friends and when the time was right in my life to compete the choice was easy.
Michael VanLoon – Guy has seen my wife through some amazing struggles this last year. I am most impressed that his number one concern was her overall health. Team O is unlike other coaches who are only interested in getting their athletes on stage regardless of their long-term health. Guy is interested in bringing highly competitive and healthy athletes to stage. The placing of Team O athletes at every show they compete in says it all. Quality coaching, quality nutrition, and stunning physiques.
Rochelle Murfitt – Team O has been a family for years and coach Overby is the best!
Adam McCullough – Incredibly supportive and elite team!
Adam Mccullough – His team loves him, and his coaching flat out works. He puts high-quality athletes on the stage. |

Hurricanes. Fires. Equipment failure. Theft. What would you do if your company’s emails, billing records, customer files, inventory reports, payroll and tax information suddenly disappeared? If you’re unsure, it’s time to create a disaster preparedness plan. Having a solid plan in place will help businesses minimize loss and disruption and return to normal operations as quickly as possible in the event of a disaster. This is especially critical for small businesses.
Work with your team leaders (office managers, IT, security, sales, etc.) to create a detailed, written plan of action that makes sense for your company. Be sure the plan includes emergency contact information for your employees, vendors, etc. You’ll also need to have a copy of your plan in a safe location outside the office.
How will everyone within your company communicate with one another in the face of a disaster? How will they ensure that everyone is safe and that each person is aware of his or her responsibility in helping to maintain operations? Hold a company-wide meeting in order to review your plan in detail. Ensure that all employees—from the receptionist to the CEO and those that work part time or remotely—receive both an electronic version and a printed copy. Any time the plan changes, be sure to let everyone know. As for new employees, the disaster recovery plan should be part of their initial employment training.
Obviously, preparation is critical for your internal team; however, your hardware, software, facilities, and service vendors are critical to your operations as well. Be sure you can get in touch with them—chances are you’ll need to. For example, what if you have products shipped to your office? Are your vendors willing and able to ship them elsewhere? Most likely, they will bend over backwards to assist you, but to do so, they must know the plan first.
The ability to communicate with employees and customers until your business is up and running is paramount to any disaster preparedness plan. Do you have another location where key employees can conduct critical business functions in the event of a disaster? Ideally, you would identify at least two separate locations, one of which is at least an hour away from your current location.
Disasters tend to strike when they are least expected, instantly wiping out a significant amount of data. Small businesses say that data is their most valuable asset, but unfortunately, many small businesses only back up files once or twice a month, a procedure that can result in tremendous loss. Online backup is the best way to ensure you get all your files back easily in the event of a disaster.
Make sure you find a service that works automatically and continually in the background. Doing so can do more than save you money; it can literally save your company. Look for a service that transmits your protected files offsite to secure severs to ensure your files safe from theft, fire, spills, power spikes, power outages, physical accidents and just about anything else that might happen in your office.
The internet is not always available. A good data backup service should be prepared to assist you if this is the case. Should you find yourself in this situation, you will want to have a service that can ship you a portable hard drive containing all of your backed up files. It’s also critical that the service offers high-caliber customer support so that you can be walked through the process of recovering your files.
What if your top executives are unreachable during the time of disaster? In addition to an offsite crisis meeting and work place(s) for employees, it is vital to select and train additional employees to perform emergency operations in their absence.
Practice makes perfect. While it may generate some eye-rolling, companies that walk through a simulation have a far greater chance of successful recovery. Employees are less likely to panic when they are familiar with the plan. And even more importantly, a simulation allows flaws to be noticed—and fixed—before disaster strikes.
The plan outlined here is do-it-yourself, but it may make sense for you to bring on professionals for some elements, such as IT and security – and remember that Carbonite’s SMB team is always available to small businesses as a resource. With affordable, annual pricing, Carbonite is friendly to your SMB budget. You can try Carbonite free for 30 days here. |

I’m always impressed when I come across simple tools that Gamemasters can use to rapidly generate content. watabou’s incredible Medieval Fantasy City Generator seems to be exactly that.
A time sink of possibility, messing with the options in style and layout means that you can tweak features of the output and find your favoured combination. For Ambria, I have Coast turned off (Layout > Coast) and everything else turned on, unless it’s a small settlement, like this one, where I also turned off Citadel (Layout > Citadel).
My output uses Style > Palette > Black & White with Watercolours switched on. Annotations > Small plus Wards. I also set Towers > Square and Buildings > Simple.
You could equally turn off the Watercolours and Wards, then do a little colouring of your own – adding labels by hands or in a package like Photoshop (or even something online suitable for quick annotations of imagery).
Mapping the exported image to the location, use the wards as both store and accommodation, like Yndaros. Craftspeople, for example, will usually live above or behind their shopfront.
Oh and give the Warp function a try. Seriously, I have lost a couple of hours already just generating towns and then warping them in myriad directions.
Very nice tool – worthy of a donation for the effort. |
Maximum Apocalypse is a cooperative roguelike adventure game for 1-6 players. In Maximum Apocalypse, civilization has already fallen. The players are survivors of the apocalypse whose mission is to survive the hostile landscape. The game map is randomly generated and different every time that you play. On each turn, a player can use up to four actions to explore the map, play cards, equip weapons, scavenge for resources, draw cards or battle off monsters.
Zombie – Don’t get overwhelmed by the Undead…luckily they’re not too bright.
As you explore the map, you’ll come across new locations. Some of them are good and some can be very bad.
I’ve spent almost 2 years developing the game system behind Maximum Apocalypse. It’s built to be very moddable, offer a ton of variety and a lot of replayability. As part of setup, players will select a mission or scenario. Most missions deal with you finding a particular location, collecting enough fuel to escape and then making your way back to the van. |
It wasn’t just us for this trip to Apollo Bay. My aunt, who owns the holiday house there, joined us to show mum (and the rest of us) some awesome spots to find seashells. One day, we were driving past Wild Dog Creek and suggested that we should look there. |
I split my working time between steel and marble.
Breakthrough cubes came about as an endeavour to make an incredibly fragile piece which would show off the beauty of the marble. I left the block as a framework to hold the marble ‘membrane’. I used a particular Portuguese Pink marble which has a bit of pink veining but is otherwise quite white.
Horizon Splitting is made from chopped up and welded together angle iron, something I have been doing for ages, twenty-five years and more. |

What if I blow below a .08 in Washington State?
First of all, the fact that you blew below the legal limit within two hours of driving puts you in a very good position to challenge your case.
Much of your case’s success would be based on this other evidence. For example, if you performed well on the field tests and/or you were not displaying the typical signs of impairment, any argument to the contrary by the prosecutor would be weakened by this lack of other evidence. Other technical information such as calibration, etc. can be found on each Datamaster Machine’s report.
It is important to see the Discovery as it is entirely possible that the prosecutor may have enough evidence to go forward with a DUI affected prong (no BAC or below .08). Hopefully you know at this point that the city doesn’t need any breath test result to prove someone is DUI. The person who has the expertise to address your concerns is your attorney and I would strongly urge you to share your questions and concerns with him/her.

MARION, N.Y. (WHEC) -- Neighbors tell News10NBC the woman who died in Monday's deadly fire in Marion, Wayne County was bedridden.
State police have identified the victim as Beatrice Murray. She was 80 years old.
Neighbors and family members described the mother of six as a loving and kind woman.
Investigators spent the day trying to determine what started the fire in her home on Cory Corners Road.
Fire investigators with the New York State Police and local fire investigators worked all day Tuesday sifting through rubble.
"We're not ruling out anything at this point," said Trooper Mark O'Donnell, New York State Police. "Our investigators have been canvassing and interviewing dozens of people and we've been working around the clock in the fire trying to figure out what the cause was and if there's anything we need to find out."
State fire investigators used a drone to take pictures from above. They also had canines on hand.
It's an all-out effort to find the cause.
Family members tell us she had lived in the house that dates back to the 1800s for more than 50 years.
"We were not able to launch an interior attack," said Walworth Fire Chief John O'Toole on Monday. "There was too heavy a volume of fire."
Such extensive damage can make it tough for investigators to find the cause.
"Our investigators are very skilled at what they do," O'Donnell said. "I have complete faith they will find out the cause of the fire and if there's any other circumstances we need to be aware of, they'll find it."
O'Donnell added that it could be days before investigators find out the cause of the fire.
Officials say if you have any information about the fire, call 911. |
"Reflections On A Life Spent In Pursuit Of Women And Beauty"
Offers a unique perspective on life and women that you won't find in other dating advice products. Provides a good insight on what it means to be a man who is naturally attractive to women. Helps inspire a greater appreciation of women and life that goes beyond the superficial.
The book is overly long and repeats a lot of the same points again and again. Makes a lot of generalizations. Vocabulary at times is difficult to understand.
This isn't a practical 'how-to guide' on dating and relationships. It's more of an insight on Zan's philosophy on how he lives his life and the role that women play in it.
If you're looking for inspiration on how to live a mindful life where you're able to be in the present moment and really appreciate women and their feminine energy, this book is worth checking out. If you want a manual on how to meet and date women, including tactics and techniques, you won't find it here in this product.
The Alabaster Girl, by Zan Perrion, takes place on a few different levels. It tells the story of a fictional character who is one of the world's greatest seducers, and the book he has written, The Alabaster Girl. He's on a train journey where he is joined by a female journalist, intent on discovering his story and how he has become so successful with women. The dialogue between them makes up one part of the book.
The second level is excerpts from the fictitious book, recounting the character's memories and experiences of the different women who have been in his life. And the third level, which accounts for the majority of the book, consists of thoughts, musings and the overall philosophy of how he approaches life and women.
While the character is obviously based on Zan, it's not clear if any of the stories are fictionalized or if he experienced all of these things himself. I recognized a few stories as those that Zan recounted back in the earlier days of the seduction community, so it would be fair to assume that most, if not all, of these stories are based on fact.
If you're not familiar with Zan, then its worth noting that he has his own unique style which is very different to most dating coaches. You get the feeling he sees himself as a throwback to a bygone era, a Casanova-esque type who doesn't fit into the modern world or share any of mainstream society's values.
Throughout the book he refers to himself as a gypsy pirate, an adventurer, a seeker of beauty. He continually offers up quotes from literature, poetry and philosophy, with more than a liberal sprinkling of foreign-language phrases thrown in for good measure.
There's a sense of romantic adventure combined with curiosity in the way he approaches life. He has a deep love of women and the feminine energy they offer, and one of his most frequent quotes is, "A man who loves women is loved by women". As you red through the book, you can see why women are drawn to him; how he offers them something that most other guys never could.
While he points out that he wasn't always good with women, in fact far from it, he has become a 'natural' in the truest sense of the word. His interactions with women are genuine and authentic, and he doesn't adopt any sort of persona or try to be someone he's not. A theme throughout the book is that he treats all women the same, even the ones he isn't physically attracted to. His mindset is that they are all 'his girls' and deserve to feel special, which is the gift he gives them.
As much as he loves the women he is with, he can never stay with just one. He talks about the reasons for this throughout the book, but ultimately his need for freedom and thirst for adventure outweighs the desire he has to stay. This is shown through some of the excerpts in the fictitious Alabaster Girl and shows how you can be honest with women when explaining you can't give them the commitment they are looking for.
This isn't really a typical dating advice product, in the sense that it's not giving you specific advice on how to meet and date women. You won't find anything in the way of tactics and techniques, or instructions on what you should do yourself.
The closest thing you'll get to this is from some of the dialogue between the seducer character (who is essentially Zan) and the women he interacts with. You'll get an insight into some of the things he says to women, which vary between sexually direct, romantic, challenging and playful.
For the most part though you'd be advised not to try and copy the examples here too closely. The things that Zan does work for him because he's being himself and expressing his authentic personality. Most guys would have a very difficult time pulling off this particular style as it wouldn't be congruent with their personality. If you normally don't quote 19th century literature or French poetry in your daily life, it wouldn't make sense to try this as a tactic in the hopes of attracting a girl.
Here's a passage from the book: "I am often asked: What do I say that other men do not say? What do I do that other men do not do? I have no clear answer to any of this, for who, as they say, has seen the wind? It is almost impossible to describe it in words. It is foolish to even try. I can only hint. I can only guess. I can only wonder. There is no clear algorithm to follow, there is no 'You start by saying A; if she responds with B, then you go to C.' It is all about intuition and sub-communication, feel and flow."
If there were any direct advice in this book, it would likely revolve around the themes of knowing who you are as a man and living life on your own terms. When you have these two things in order you can then offer your authentic masculine self to women while embracing her feminine energy. In that respect, there are some similarities here to what is discussed by David Deida in The Way of the Superior Man.
What you'll likely get from the book is inspiration to make conscious decisions about how you want to live your life. Previously Zan has referred to himself as a 'bon vivant' which in French means 'one who lives well'. This is probably as good a description of him as any, a man with a renegade spirit who chooses a life pursuing beauty, adventure and great memories. Zan's enthusiastic zest for life is contagious, and you'll discover the importance of choosing your own path and not spending your life trying to please other people, women included.
At over 400 pages, this is a really long read. It's more noticeable since Zan tends to repeat a lot of the same points over and over. I think 100 pages could easily be slashed off without really losing any of the message or effecting the overall quality.
The female interviewer on the train asks the author of the Alabaster Girl who he wrote it for, and he replies it was for himself. In the same sense, it seems like Zan has written this book mainly for himself also. The vocabulary is difficult at times and there are many obscure foreign phrases that the average person will never have heard, so you may want to read this with a dictionary and Google Translate on hand if you want to comprehend everything.
One issue, that Zan actually acknowledges a few times throughout the book, is he makes a lot of generalizations and speaks in absolutes. He tends to depict men and women in a black and white fashion without recognizing the large grey area in between. Potentially this could cause confusion for guys with little experience, who might take some of what Zan says as gospel, even though that isn't his intention.
For example, he says at one stage that if a girl is talking to more than one man, she'll always pay less attention to the man she is most interested in. From my experience, I know that this isn't always true. If you're a beginner, it's important to learn to read the situation for what it is and understand that not every woman is the same, rather than accepting these over-simplified rules that don't always hold true.
On the same note, he mentions how he only approaches women who have shown him some interest through eye contact, unless he just happens to be right near them anyway. Less experienced guys often struggle with reading a woman's non-verbal sign of interest, or don't receive any in the first place. To build up your experience it's a good idea to talk to lots of women and not rely on invitations to do so. Zan isn't explicitly telling you not to approach women without a signal of interest, but it's the lesson that some people could take away. |
When asked what advice would he give the Left-wing writers, leading British conservative philosopher and writer Roger Scruton replied “acknowledge the legitimacy of disagreement”. Scruton’s description of the Left and Communist intelligentsia, and his analysis of their methods of political and intellectual impositions are applicable in the Indian context as well. It is the essential refusal of theirs to acknowledge the right to disagree—in the political and intellectual sphere—that has vitiated India’s political atmosphere since many decades.
Unable to generate any new thinking, incapable of political expansion or of self-renewal and having failed to ideologically evolve and restate themselves, the Left in India is not only stagnating but increasingly taking recourse to intellectual and political thuggery and charlatanism. Their counterparts in the West also work in close coordination and disrupt, hiss and boo anyone who has an alternate view-point or espouses a world view which is not in consonance or opposed to theirs. They refuse to seriously engage in an argument or in articulating counter-points, as Scruton observes, “People on the left don’t, on the whole, engage with their opponents. They dismiss and sneer at them, and, if they can, they will accuse them of things like racism or whatever the evil of the day might be.” It is always a concocted and conjured evil that these come up with it, so that they can continue with perpetuating their false positions.
The other obsession that the Left has is to politicise and to think that ‘everything is political’. The latest expression of this reductionist mindset is reflected in Sitaram Yechury’s observation on PM Narendra Modi’s repeated appeal to not politicise the triple talaq discussion. Modi had called for a serious and dispassionate discussion on the issue. In his meeting with leading maulanas on May 9, he appealed to them to see the issue in terms of ending discrimination against women, and asked them to initiate this reform from within their society and desist from seeing it in political terms.
The response to Modi’s appeal on the issue has been heartening and is coming in from across the country, especially from the community to which his appeal is addressed. While a positive atmosphere of debate and discussion is being generated across a cross-section, the communists, under direction from the puny leadership, are seeing politics and communal angle in it. Sans seriously engaging, they are displaying how out of tune they have become with the realities of India and with the dimensions of her collective thought.
This refusal to ‘acknowledge the legitimacy of disagreement’, both politically and intellectually, is seen latest in the intellectual intolerance displayed against Professor Makarand Paranjape who is on a lecture of the West and politically seen in the manner in which veteran BJP leader and MLA O. Rajagopal in Kerala was attacked and scores of BJP and RSS workers killed by leftist cadres. |

You’re on the go every day, working hard and making that cash. But if you haven’t taken a holiday in months, it’s time to rethink your life choices. It’s time for you to look into Mudgee holiday cottages and take a day off—or ten days. Because once you’re all settled in, you won’t want to leave.
Words like charming, adorable, and delightful probably come to mind when you think of country cottages, set in lovely little towns the world over. The same applies to beach cottages—just replace the rolling hills with lapping waves. And while Mudgee cottages can’t be in every setting at once, you’ll find that the stunning scenery here is better than all the others combined. Cottages are the perfect retreat from everyday life, with serene surroundings both inside and out and that relaxed vibe that can come only from knowing everything is taken care of. Mudgee has an equally charming vibe, and that’s why so many travellers love it.
“Don’t worry, be happy” should be your motto on your next holiday. Well, friend, in Mudgee, that’s not just the motto of visitors; the locals are living that theme every day. So take a break from that presentation you’re working on and make a different graph instead—of Wotif’s low prices on over Mudgee cottage accommodation options. It’s about time you got to kick back, and we don’t mean putting your feet up at your desk. |
This week in Washington, Cliff Floyd is expecting the best – but bracing for the worst.
“I’m expecting good, clean baseball,” said Floyd, who was 3-for-18 with six strikeouts against Dontrelle Willis and was given yesterday off. “I think if Pedro [Martinez] hits [Jose Guillen], we’re going to fight.
Floyd has never understood that when a pitcher hits a position player, a position player on another team is targeted.
He said he’d be seething if his team had been hit six times in a series, as the Nationals were.
“But my point over there is, hit the guy who’s throwing,” Floyd said. “He’s going to pitch again, sooner or later.
The Mets left fielder nearly charged the mound against Houston’s Roy Oswalt last season, and he acknowledged talking about retaliating (as he did at the time) is nonsense that must stop.
Batting .200 (3-for-15) this season, Floyd worked on his mechanics in the indoor cage before the 3-2 victory over Florida.
The Mets realigned their rotation after Saturday’s rainout, and Victor Zambrano will start Thursday in Washington. Zambrano (strained left hamstring) was originally scheduled to start yesterday.
Brian Bannister and Pedro Martinez will stay on turn and pitch Tuesday and Wednesday. Tom Glavine and Steve Trachsel will flip-flop and work on Friday and Saturday so Glavine can stay on turn.
Carlos Delgado was inconspicuous during the seventh-inning rendition of “God Bless America,” when a handful of his teammates stood on the top step or above it. . . . Saturday’s rain washed away starts for Chris Woodward and Ramon Castro. Yesterday, Paul Lo Duca and Anderson Hernandez were back at catcher and second base, respectively. “We’ve got an off-day [today], and I didn’t want guys playing every day to get three days off,” Willie Randolph said. “That’s just the way it works out.” The Mets play day games after night games on Thursday and Saturday, so Castro should start a couple of games. Woodward pinch-hit in the sixth and whiffed against Willis. |
Team building is a frequently-held “day event” where activities provide certain experiences for participants. People get to know each better, increase their level of trust, improve communication, encourage sharing and collaboration and increase creativity.
Alpsndown’s Team utilizes training techniques (highly developed especially in North Europe and America), to give first-person real “incentive experiences“: engaging in emotions and senses, active interaction and exchange of ideas. Teamwork improves performance.
The approach to an active program sets the participant as the protagonist. Experience is the main vehicle of man’s learning because it is part of a person, involves all five senses, is usually accompanied by emotions and often sees us interacting with other subjects.
This way experience becomes learning. What is learned from our outdoor experiences has the ability to change behaviors and social trust concretely. A team building must have a valid “designed and goal” provided by a professional on the basis of the customer’s request.
The day is planned for everyone to attend (just like a day at the office). The program usually includes morning and/or afternoon activities for whole group and a “collective meal break”, which is very important for post-experience communication.
Underestimate the importance of the relational aspect of the work environment leads to failure. Stable relationships, based on respect and achievement of common goals, make a huge difference! |
Bravo, France! And shame on you, David Cameron!
France has offered asylum to the Iraqi Christians forced to flee from Mosul. The BBC reports this, and so does Al Jazeera.
“We are in constant contact with local and national authorities to ensure everything is done to protect them,” both ministers said.
So, these are not cheap words, or political posturing. Something is actually being done.
Bravo, France! You are a secular republic that sees, in true secular fashion, the human needs of people in distress, and wants to do something about it.
Bravo, France! You have form in this matter already. For France it was that received thousands of refugees from Russia in the aftermath of the revolution there, and also took in thousands of Armenians who survived the Ottoman genocide of 1915. Now, once more, you are helping those who need a safe haven.
Bravo, France! You have expressed outrage at the treatment of the Christians of Mosul, and you have not taken the line that these are merely one oppressed group among many: there has been no ‘universalise to minimise’ strategy here.
Italy and the Vatican acted over the case of Meriam Ibrahim; France is now prepared to act over the persecuted Christians of Mosul. (Entry to France may well give them entry to the entire European Union.) Over to you, David Cameron and William Hague. |

Re: Why is chess compared to tennis?
Topic: National Girls' Chess Championships - Success.
Sadly I think the tabloids will survive. The British public are hypocrites, they'll still want to read tittle tattle about celebs and gossip. Buy a broadsheet newspaper instead.
I think there is a market for both types. It's important to have financial prizes because it's important for the masters who play chess full time. Trophies do add to the event because they're something to keep the event memorable and you can show guests or your grandchildren what you achieved.

It seems like an ideal cellulite treatment: just an undergarment that you wear that then gets rid of cellulite through the natural action of your body. But do they work?
Yes and no. Obviously, while you are wearing the compression shorts, your cellulite will be concealed, and if you wear them regularly, you might see a difference. However, the difference is likely short-lived. Doctors that say their patients have seen results with these treatments say the results last between hours and days.
Even with this limited duration treatment, the garments have thousands of adoring fans. After all, cellulite is a problem that affects almost all women, and effective remedies--even for a few hours--are hard to come by.
Now, though, patients have access to a cellulite treatment whose results are measured not in hours or days or weeks, but months and maybe even years. Cellulaze has been clinically proven to give cellulite reduction or even elimination lasting at least 2 years, and anecdotal reports of relief go much longer. The truth is, we don't really know how long Cellulaze's results last.
To learn more about long-term cellulite treatment from a cosmetic surgeon, please contact JUVA Skin & Laser Center in New York City. |

Hi, I'm Nitasha. All you really need to know about me is that I’m a seeker of the self, always ready and willing to unleash my power by breaking down barriers of fear and replacing them with a foundation of love and abundance. Through writing, speaking, and coaching, I aspire to inspire - not by fixing problems but simply by sharing stories of how I stopped using others as a barometer of success, looked within to find my value, and took steps to creating the life I've always dreamed of.
We all constantly use words, a daily act that binds and connects each and every one of us. Words are tirelessly pieced together in trillions of varying permutations as mere attempts of attaching a description to the state of things as they are or what we perceive them to be. I love words for how limited they are in their ability to adequately wrap their arms around the depth and breadth of this life. I love them for being insufficient, for being simply unable to wholly explain the infinity that exists around us and within us. That is why words are my vessel. They pique my curiosity. They allow me to seek and see. Words are the vessel that carries me through the exploration of my depths, where I try my best to, at the very least, get a glimpse at all that is inexplicable. |

My name is Peter; my personal training business is called Active Anywhere. I am a professional personal trainer based in Danbury although I regularly travel to surrounding areas and so in this respect I am mobile and willing to train anywhere – I am prepared with all the fitness equipment we need and so I can bring the gym to you!
I believe flexibility is key when it comes to satisfying client’s needs. I will train outdoors, at your home or in the private gym facility that I have prepared should you wish.
I am also able to be flexible in the type of training I can provide. All clients will have different needs and preferences and I consider it my responsibility to deliver to each individual a programme that they find engaging and stimulating. Some options can include circuit style sessions, kettlebell exercises, weight training, body weight exercises, vipr bar and medicine ball sessions….
Clients will have in mind different fitness targets and goals. Some people wish to tone, others want to build muscle whilst some want to make every day movements effortless and more efficient (core function), and this may also include correcting postural deviations. The ultimate aims of clients will differ enormously and so it is important for me to establish clear short, medium and long term targets. These targets act as markers on our fitness journey and help us to highlight our progress.
It’s fair to say that with any gain (fitness or other wise) there can be a plateau in progress at some point. I consider it my role to support, encourage and assist clients through these spells and battle through to our next peak. I am a positive and enthusiastic person that believes in providing innovative and dynamic sessions. This enthusiasm coupled with a diligent and considered approach helps drive my clients to meet our fitness goals.

Postcard view looking northwest from the Key West Lighthouse, ca. 1870.
Looking northwest from the Key West Lighthouse, now a museum operated by the Key West Art and Historical Society, the Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum is visible.
Pictured here in the bottom right, the museum is famous for its six-toed “Hemingway” cats. The house was originally built by Asa Tift, one of the island’s first shipwreck-salvaging magnates.
After the fire of 1886, structures were required to have metal roofs, which some historical Key West buildings still do.
On April 1, 1886, a fire destroyed much of Key West’s downtown commercial district. It burned for more than 12 hours – not helped by the fact that the island’s only steam fire engine was in New York for repairs.
Damage was estimated at more than $2 million, only about $50,000 of that covered by insurance. Most structures in the historic district today still have metal roofs, a requirement that began after the fire.
This photo shows Cuban workers leaving Key West by Spanish ships after the fire of April 1886.
Key West in the 1880s was a center of the booming cigar manufacturing industry. The tobacco was grown in Cuba, but the cigar-rolling factories were in Key West, both to escape Cuba’s political turmoil and to avoid import tariffs on the finished cigars.
The island’s Cuban population swelled and Cuban-Americans were elected to public positions including mayor, justice of the peace, school superintendent and state legislator. Key West is closer to Havana than it is to Miami and frequent traffic between the two islands continued until the early 1960s.

The U.S.S. Maine embarked from Key West to Havana before it exploded in Havana Harbor, which helped trigger the Spanish-American War. This stereoview shows casualties from that explosion being buried at the Key West Cemetery, which still has the plot dedicated to the Maine sailors.
Stereoscope and stereoview photographs were popular in the latter half of the 19th century. These photos, viewed through a stereoscope viewer – which looked like a pair of glasses mounted on a holder for the photograph card – gave the illusion of 3-D.
Tanzler had fallen in love with Elena Hoyos, a young tuberculosis patient. When she died, he stole her body from the cemetery and installed it in the contraption, where he essentially turned her into a wax mummy. Tanzler played organ music to his beloved and insisted that she awake and speak to him.
When he was discovered, Hoyos’ body was put on display at the local funeral home and almost 7,000 people showed up for the viewing.
This stereoview shows the island’s sponge market.
Until synthetic sponges were developed, collecting and cleaning sponges from the nearby waters was a major industry for the island. It continues today on a much smaller scale. The rivalry between Key West spongers and Greek spongers from Tarpon Springs fueled the plot of the 1953 movie “Beneath the 12-Mile Reef,” starring Robert Wagner and Peter Graves.

Turtling was another major, sea-based industry for the island. This stereoview shows green turtles being prepared to ship to New York. Sea-turtle harvest continued until the 1970s, when they were protected.
The most historically significant item in the collection donated to the library isn’t a photograph. It’s a letter from 1823, with orders from Commodore David Porter for the Navy to take possession of the island and rename it.
But “Thompson’s Island,” after the Secretary of the Navy, didn’t take. Five years later, the town incorporated as Key West, an Anglicization of the island’s longtime Spanish name, Cayo Hueso.
More images from the recent donation can be seen at the Monroe County Public Library’s Flickr site.
Key West’s 18th Annual Lobsterfest wasn't just about stuffing your face with lobster tail.
Lobster newcomers and lobster veterans paraded down Duval Street at the lobster street fair, some wearing lobster hats collected over years.
Among the 200 booths, there were several lobster gear vendors.

How Long Do I Have to Purchase Car Insurance After Buying a Car?
Car insurance can be complicated if a person does not have a good agent to help them through the process. How much do you need? When do you need to buy it? Can it be added to an existing policy? This article won’t answer all your questions. It will, however, help answer the question of how soon you need to buy insurance after you purchase a car. The answer can depend on where you purchase your car, your state laws and the existence of any other car insurance policies you may have.
Many car lots will not even allow you to drive off the lot with a car until you have insurance. This is more to protect them than protect you. They want to make sure the car is covered until it is paid in full. There is also likely to be a requirement as to how much insurance you need.
A private owner will most likely not care whether you have insurance or not since you will be taking title of the car right away. In this case, you may have two weeks or so, depending on when the temporary tags expire. It is then likely that you will be required to show proof of insurance before you will be issued permanent tags. This is definitely the case in states that require all drivers be covered under some kind of car insurance.
Car owners who have existing insurance policies will need to talk to their insurance agent. Some policies have a grace period during which the new car is covered under the existing policy. These grace periods vary in terms of their duration, so it is important to carefully review your policy. Other policies do not allow this at all. Your insurance agent can help you determine whether you are covered or not and how long you have before you need to get the additional car covered.
Most states have some type of car insurance regulations in place and they may differ from the requirements of the dealer where you purchase your car. In all cases, it is better to check in advance with your state Department of Motor Vehicles to find out their requirements. Once you know the State’s requirements, you will be in a better position to comply with them. Unless the dealer requires insurance before allowing you to take possession, state law is the standard, and that will likely mean you need to secure car insurance before you can be issued permanent tags for your car.
A Business Owner’s Policy (also known as a BOP policy) is a package policy, providing both property and liability coverage geared toward small to mid-size businesses. They are worthwhile because, unlike separate property and liability policies, they are bundled to contain extra coverage at a low price. Many companies now offer specialized BOP policies for home based businesses or specific classes of business, like retail stores and small restaurants. These policies offer more comprehensive coverage to business owners who may not be able to afford purchasing coverage a la carte.
The property section of a typical BOP policy will include but is not limited to office equipment, furniture, leased or rented equipment, and property belonging to someone else damaged while in your care. This also includes additions to your building and premises that you rent. When deciding on your limit of property insurance, don’t forget to include the cost of your build-out and improvements, equipment used to maintain the building, and permanently attached fixtures. Always consult your lease agreement, if applicable, so you can include any items you are responsible for and confirm that these items are covered.
Liability coverage under the BOP policy covers Bodily Injury and Property Damage claims that you are liable for. A claim can be filed against you for medical bills and expenses resulting from injury, sickness or death caused when you act negligently. If not covered correctly, these situations can drain your financial resources and can result in thousands of dollars out of your pocket.
The most common example is a slip-and-fall accident. These can result from something as simple as spilled liquids, uneven flooring, or narrow stairs. These accidents account for around 17,000 deaths in the United States each year. They are among the most frequently filed claims against small businesses, making it important to carry liability coverage in the event of such unfortunate accidents.
Several key coverages are not included in the basic policy but may be added to the policy by endorsement. A few of these coverages are Automobile, Disability, Health, Worker’s Compensation and Professional Liability. Each business has different needs, meaning not all of these coverages may apply to you. When buying a BOP policy, carefully review what coverages are included and what are not.
Worker’s Compensation is required by most states for businesses with more than one employee and you may need to purchase a separate policy for this coverage. Talk to your insurance representative about the Worker’s Compensation laws in your state.
Buying the right Business Owner’s Policy is a first step in protecting you from the risks inherent to running a business. Carrying this policy may also be a requirement of your rental agreement or leased equipment agreements. By not carrying the right BOP policy, you may be vulnerable to lawsuits or uncovered damages. It is a low cost alternative to out-of-pocket expenses and is packed with coverages which may otherwise be costly.
Ryan Niles is an insurance advisor for NewFirst Insurors, specializing in the development and implementation of risk management strategies for small- to mid-sized businesses in the Texas Coastal region.
Risk events can come in many different shapes and sizes, but regardless of your profession, risk management is something that can give you the edge over potentially damaging risks. For Small Businesses, there are several reasons why Enterprise Risk Management should be implemented. These reasons range from legal obligations to budgetary requirements and below, we highlight four of the foremost reasons for introducing Enterprise Risk Management to your Business.
In large companies, market risk covers the risk that the value of the company’s assets will decrease due to a change in the value of external factors. Changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and commodity prices can all negatively impact on a company’s assets. Similarly, changing economic and environmental factors can negatively impact on the productivity of small businesses.
By monitoring market influences and assessing other external influences that could impinge on the company’s market presence, you can protect against market risks and ensure the productivity of the business. For small businesses, accounting for market risks can help ensure projected growth patterns and prosperity. By formulating an enterprise risk management plan, employers can effectively address and mitigate unfavourable market forces.
Operational risk represents the risk of loss from failed internal processes. These risks can arise out of everything from poor or inadequate employee practices to hardware malfunction. While operational risk is relevant to all categories of profession, many small businesses often overlook or underestimate the possibility of operational risk-related events damaging their business. Operational risks such as internal and external fraud, employment practices, business continuity processes can all negatively affect the overall business process of a small enterprise.
Through in-depth analysis, the identification, measurement, monitoring and managing of operational risk, small businesses can ensure the security and efficiency of the operating process. This involves having well-defined and organized roles, segregating duties and responsibilities, and implementing management review mechanisms that will allow employers to account for operational risks and ensure they don’t threaten the business.
Reputation is one of a business’ most important assets, particularly if they operate globally. That said, reputation is everything for small enterprises and start-ups as it represents the extent to which the company is meeting the expectations of its stakeholders, and this can often prove a determining factor in whether or not a small business can take off. While reputation is one of the most important assets of the business, reputational risks are indelibly difficult to protect against. Factors such as negative publicity, whether accurate or not, can compromise the business’ reputation capital while marketing channels such as social media can carry a lot of risk potential.
By defining how you want your business to be perceived, you can begin to clearly identify what risks could negatively impact on the company’s public image. Outlining an enterprise risk management strategy can greatly help a small business to actively monitor the effects of operational incidents on reputation capital and the public perception of the business. This involves an assessment of relationships with consumers, partners and the media as well as assessing the functionality of the business in terms of commitment and quality processes.
Emerging risk accounts for any new risk that is in the process of being quantified and understood. Emerging risks have the potential to substantially impact on a business or insurance policy and significantly damage the company’s reputation, reach and overall process. Emerging risks can infiltrate any part of your business or personal life and have a huge impact, and unfortunately, as there tends not to be any resolute method of predicting and protecting against emerging risks, they are considered some of the most potentially damaging risks that businesses face.
Typical emerging risks include Cyber Risks and Social Media Risks, both of which can be reduced greatly through a comprehensive risk management plan, but other emerging risks such as changing economic factors and wholly unpredictable risks like natural disasters can have devastating consequences for unprepared businesses.
Enterprise Risk Management is all about predicting, preparing for and protecting against the occurrence of a risk event. Each of the risks discussed in this post carry the potential to inflict serious damage on a company’s reputation and overall business process. However, if a small business incorporates each of the aforementioned risks into their overall Enterprise Risk Management plan, they can significantly protect themselves against the possibility of a risk event occurring and devastating the business.
Ensure your Risk Management Strategy is up to scratch with a free risk assessment.

As the U.S. home market slowly recovers, builders are seeing a boost in construction contracts. New commercial buildings are being built at a rapid pace. With these surges in construction, specialized policies like Builder’s Risk provide important protection against exposures that are unique to the building trade.
The Builder’s Risk policy provides protection for homes or commercial buildings under construction, while being remodeled, or undergoing renovation. The policy covers materials like concrete, lumber, and fixtures as well as machinery and equipment used to maintain the building. The policy also covers the cost to remove debris caused by a covered accident, like a fire or lightning strike.
In most cases, a Builder’s Risk policy is required for buildings under construction and purchased when the home or building is at least 30% complete. The limit of insurance is based on the estimated value of the project once its complete. Because the value will increase as glass, framing, and other materials are added, the limit should also be increased. Once the project is done, coverage will end when the building has been taken over by the owner, the work has been complete for 90 days, or the builder has abandoned the project.
Accidents happen and by their nature, they’re never anticipated. An accident can stall or completely stop a building project. To avoid the pitfalls of damage, there are three types of perils coverage to choose from: Limited Perils, Specified Perils, or Special Perils.
Each has their own unique advantages but the most inclusive is Special Peril, which covers accidental losses that are not specifically excluded. While this type of coverage is the most attractive, it is also the most expensive. Though the cost may be more than its counterparts, the broad coverage pays for itself in the event of a large loss that might otherwise have been excluded.
It’s a common misconception that all property policies replace damaged items based on their original replacement value. While many companies sell enhanced policies with special endorsements, like Replacement Cost, a great majority of policies come with Actual Cash Value.
In the event of covered damage to your property, claims are paid on an Actual Cash Value basis by default. This means only the depreciated cost to repair or replace will be paid. This can leave the project with a shortfall in funds and possibly halt further construction. To avoid this common mistake, check the policy and endorsements to ensure that Replacement Cost coverage is included.
While the coverage provided is vital to most building projects, limitations apply. Builder’s Risk does not cover Earthquake, Flood, Steam Boiler, or intentional acts of damage. Because policies vary by company, coverage for materials in transit, equipment such as scaffolding and trailers, or theft of materials may be limited or excluded. For an additional premium, separate policies or endorsements can be added to ensure coverage is in place where it is needed. |

If you’re thinking of applying for a loan to buy a house here in Shelby County, it’s easier than ever to get confused, given the incredible variety of loans offered by banks, loan companies, credit unions and other groups. It’s also possible to completely overlook what could be the perfect loan program, which is all the more reason why you should have a knowledgeable lender helping you.
First Step and Step Up are two more loan programs you should know about. These are bond money loans offered by the State of Alabama, and have wound up helping many home buyers in our area. First Federal Mortgage Loan Officer KC Haririan, who joined us for our Netcast last month, is back with us again to talk about these two programs (he has plenty of experience with helping buyers apply for both).
We also discuss the current lending climate here in Shelby County, and what you’re about to hear may surprise you. With all the media attention devoted to the credit crunch, a lot of folks may be shying away, thinking they have no chance of qualifying for a loan. But as we learn from KC, that’s not always necessarily true.
Click the player just below to listen to our latest Netcast interview with KC–we hope you enjoy it, and that you find the information useful.
Pricing Right in Shelby County Pays!
Okay, we know. You’ve heard the line about how important pricing your home can be. But would you like to see a real world example of how this works here in Shelby county? Consider the case of several homes for sale in one part of Alabaster.
We looked at the sales of single level homes during the past six months (this was done as part of a Comparative Market Analysis we ran for a client who lives in the neighborhood). For all the homes that sold during the six month period, the average number of days on market was 73, and the average selling price was $ 147,000. On average, the homes that sold got 98.7% of their asking price. Not bad, huh!
Obviously, not all homes for sale in the neighborhood have sold during that six month time frame. Those single level homes still for sale (active listings) in the same area have been on the market for an average of 130 days, or nearly twice as long as the houses that sold. And the average asking price for those same homes is between $ 155,000 and $ 165,000. So, do these numbers say anything? You bet.
To me, that’s a true reflection that these houses are simply overpriced.
So, what does all this mean? Simple. Pricing is your key to controlling how soon you want to sell your home. Like it or not, price is a clear indicator of a homeowner’s true motivation to sell. The price you select will help decide whether you enjoy the sweet smell of success in a shorter time frame, or whether your house stays (and stays!) on the market for many weeks or months longer.
Are you hearing talk among some sellers that the Shelby County housing market has gone soft? Don’t believe it. Homes are selling. The simple fact is that buyers are looking for the best deals they can find, and are passing up those homes they consider priced too high. |

Check Engine Light - What Does It Mean?
The Check Engine Light (CEL) is an integral part of your vehicle’s Onboard Diagnostics System. The problem is that an illuminated CEL can mean pretty much anything: Your gas cap could be loose or, in a worst case scenario, your engine could be malfunctioning.
Really, the CEL is merely an indicator something in or on the vehicle is (most likely) not performing as it should. Once the vehicle’s electronic control system finds a problem it cannot adjust it will illuminate the warning light and store a code in its memory indicating the problem.
In 1996 vehicle manufacturers were required to adopt standardized diagnostic trouble codes, and nowadays mechanics can quickly diagnose problems simply by inserting a device into the vehicle that reads these codes (called a ‘Code Reader’). In fact, mechanically inclined readers can even purchase a Code Reader at a hardware store and insert and read the vehicles code themselves.
However, there a few things to consider before you purchase a code reader: For example, the problem isn’t always what’s indicated in the code. The code could indicate a faulty battery, when in fact the wires connected to the battery have simply been frayed over time. Purchasing a new battery might also be a good idea, but the CEL likely won’t turn off until the faulty wires are also replaced.
In truth, your dealer or mechanic is best suited to fix your CEL. They have invested thousands in equipment to be able to properly service your vehicle and no one knows your vehicle better than a certified mechanic.
Best of all, the ODB scan is (likely) covered under your factory warranty, so you won’t pay a cent. Those not covered under warranty will pay $125 at WallceChev, which includes a full scan, diagnostic assessment, and work order. We’ll also fully explain the problem, what caused it and the steps to get you back on the road, safely.
Ignoring the problem can also be a bad idea: We frequently see vehicles with repairs that could be avoided had the issue been diagnosed earlier. A healthy car is a happy car!
Now that you know how to turn off the CEL… do you know what could cause your Check Engline Light to switch on? |

Anyone working in a cold environment may be at risk of cold stress. This includes workers required to work outdoors in cold environments and indoor workers that spend the majority of their work shift in cold rooms without health and safety guidelines specific to these moderately cold temperatures.
A cold environment drives down the skin temperature, and, eventually, the internal body temperature. As a result, the body is forced to work harder to maintain its normal temperature. Whenever temperatures drop below normal and wind speed increases, heat leaves your body more rapidly, and the body’s ability to warm itself decreases. When the body is unable to warm itself, cold stress occurs. This can lead to serious cold-related illnesses and injuries, permanent tissue damage, and even death.
Employees who work in cold temperatures are subject to three major causes of cold stress that can lead to injury—frostbite, hypothermia, and trench foot. |

The CompactFlash Association released version 5.0 of the CF specification. The new standard uses a 48-bit addressing system that raises the maximum storage capacity from 137GB to a humongous 144PB (1PB = 1,000 terabytes). Other improvements include more efficiency data transfer, more efficient cleanup of unused space, ATA standard update, optional "Video Performance Guarantee", and new electrical specification to enable easier and better card design.
To help manufacturers and consumers differentiate the new CF5 cards, the CompactFlash Association has created an evolutionary CF5 compatibility mark. Additionally, since the Video Performance Guarantee feature is optional, the CompactFlash Association has created a Video Performance Guarantee compatibility mark that host and card manufactures can use to help end users choose the right card. |
Can the stock e36 rear speakers be easily replaced with a pair of 6X9's ?
I don't want to do any cutting, but don't mind drilling for mounting screws.
If you DON'T wanna do any modifications than NO it will NOT fit!
5-1/4" are the only size that fits!
if you don't mine drilling / mounting screws + nuts, then yes it fits no problem.
I've seen adapters, or you can easily make adapters out of MDF for the parcel tray.
Sounds possible. Thanks for the reponses.
are you going to us subs too???
Maybe just a single 10" that I have kicking around. Not really looking for a bass machine, but nice clear sound.
and if I don't use a sub ?
has anyone done this before, and are there any sites that explain how to? Because I have a pair of 6x9's infinity kappa's that I would love to use rather than have them sitting around in my garage.
Infinity Kappa? Yummy... some of my favorite car audio speakers of all time.
How do it is fairly simple.

3. Mark the mounting screws for the stock box. Drill those holes out.
4. Trace the shape of your 6x9's in the middle of the cutout, along with the mounting screw holes.
5. Cut out the hole for the 6x9's, and drill out the screw holes.
6. Screw (nut & bolt?) the 6x9's to your MDF bracket.
7. Mount the bracket w/ speaker to your rear shelf.
This will make a free-air bracket. If you have subwoofers in your trunk it's advised to keep your rear speakers in a box to allow them to play in a separate airspace. Also test the excursion of your speakers to make sure it won't hit the bracket. The thickness of the MDF can act as a buffer to space out the speaker cone from hitting the rear deck under extreme use.
if ur gonna have a sub, dont bother replacing any speakers unless they are really ****ed up and the cones are ripped. i got a 10"sub in thursdays and my deck has a featuer where i can turn off the base to the speakers and make it only go to the sub. this way the speakers produce only highs which even for old speakers is easy.
This will make a free-air bracket. If you have subwoofers in your trunk it's advised to keep your rear speakers in a box to allow them to play in a separate airspace.
Even if you don't have a sub in the trunk, is there any advantage to placing 6x9's into an mdf enclosure when mounted under the deck. Will it improve sound at all?
Yes definitely helps to put it in a sealed enclosure---the back pressure will help tune the sound of the speaker, and will help reduce excessive vibrations which cause distortion, and can cause the surround to rip eventually. |

Landscape photography in winter has a few advantages. Sunrise is later, sunset is earlier, and it might just snow. (Oh please let it snow on Dartmoor this year, please, please, please!). However, while sunrise and sunset are at much more sociable hours the days are very short and so are my windows of opportunity for photography. During the summer months I can spend all day at work, casually jump into my car, drive to Lands' End and still be there in plenty of time for sunset. I can go out photographing virtually any day of the week.
With winter things are very different. I still have to work and I still have a family life, but now I can't just pop out in the evening to go out and take photographs. The shorter days that come with winter are no different from any other year but this year I'm feeling the restriction more than any other year. I think this is largely due to the level of commitment I have given my landscape photography this year. This year I have committed more time than any other year to improving my art. Now all of a sudden I can't get out as much and if the weather is very bad I sometimes don't get out all in a week. I'm starting to find it frustrating!
It's not all doom and gloom tough. It's not as if I can't get out with a camera, it’s just I can't get out as much. As with most working parents I have the school run to do. My responsibility is to get the kids to school every morning, except Friday. So if I'm organised and the weather is looking favourable I can just about get out for a dawn shoot on a Friday and still be back in time for work. This means that I have to go somewhere local and this is where my trusty old friend Dawlish Warren beach comes in.
Dawlish Warren is only about 25 minutes' drive from my house and as I said in my video My Top 5 Locations to Shoot in Devon, it's also one of my favourites. I've photographed the beach and the groynes many times but each visit offers something different. With variable weather conditions, changing direction of sunrise and tidal waters, each time I go I need to think how I'm going photograph it that morning.
When I visited Dawlish Warren last week it was probably at the lowest tide I had seen so I had access to shoot some of the groynes I've never been able to access before.
Given the proximity of Dawlish Warren and my desire to still practice my photography as much as possible during the winter, I expect to be visiting my old friend a lot this winter.
While visiting on old friend is all very good, particularly when I'm really short of time, I also need to stretch my photographic wings a little. Though time at the weekends is really family time there are windows of opportunity and they need to be put to good use. There is the temptation to visit locations I've been before but winter is also a good time to go out and do a bit of discovery.
Last weekend I got up early and went to North Tor and Bench Tor on Dartmoor. These two tors are very close together and offer all round views of Dartmoor. I actually discovered this location by accident. I was looking through some old issues of Outdoor Photography and came across Bench Tor in the Locations Guide section (which is a great source of inspiration and ideas). I knew roughly knew the area as it's very close to one of my other favourite Devon locations to photography, Venford Falls.
Arriving at the car park in the dark I put on my head torch and began the relatively short walk up to Bench Tor. As with most dawn shoots in the cold I questioned my sanity but a blast of hot black coffee soon put me in the correct frame of mind. As most landscape photographers know it actually starts to get light around an hour before official sunrise so as I wondered about Bench Tor and nearby North Tor I could start to see lots of possibilities for compositions.
Very much an exploratory shot but as this was a new location for me I wanted to try and get a few shots for reference.
With so many possibilities, including options for sunrise and sunset shoots I think I have found a new friend for winter. Though I expect the best photographs will be had during spring and autumn months I think I will spend a bit of time up there working out how to make the most of it when winter finishes. That is unless it snows in which case the big views up there will be amazing.
So do you struggle to find time during the winter to get out with the camera? Do you have a go-to location that is nearby? Do you use the winter months to get out and discover new locations? Let me know in the comments below. |

Chinese medical philosophy holds that all life is sustained by the constant flow of an energy called “qi” (pronounced “chee”). The qi of the body is connected to the qi of nature – illness occurs when the two are out of harmony. Acupuncture and Oriental medicine restore health by strengthening the body’s qi and enhancing its flow.
Chinese medical knowledge has been shaped by the experiences of thousands of practitioners over many centuries.

Grafton was first settled in 1861, and the Great Flood of 1862 washed the town site away. The town was then resettled on higher ground in1862. Although Grafton is a ghost town, its once-thriving community spirit lives on. Its soul lives as one beholds green pastures, and imagines settlers working in the fields and crafting these buildings within this lands’ striking beauty. Grafton returns us to a time when life was tenuous but strengthened by residents who relied on religious faith and each other to survive. Such communities, then and now, instill a sense of belonging to place. This connection between people and landscape lives today through many of Grafton’s descendants. May you revel in the history of Grafton and join us in preserving its future.
When settlers arrived at Grafton, the valley was like a meadow with tall grass and feed for livestock. The river bed was so narrow it could be jumped at any place with a vaulting pole. While Grafton remains the physical evidence of a time gone by, its essence lives on. The buildings and irrigated pastures take us back to a time when the certainty of life was fragile but overcome by obedience to a religion and a strong testament of faith. We can all learn from this place and recognize the power of community where a sense of place and shared culture has the ability to shape its people in concert with the land-past and present.
Why did the settlers abandon Grafton? Water too much when they didn’t need it, too little when they did. In 1906 a newly built canal delivered Virgin River water to the wide, flat Hurricane bench 20 miles downstream. Many Grafton families packed everything even some of their homes and reassembled them in Hurricane. The loss of farm fields from repeated flooding, and lack of modern utilities contributed to their leaving Grafton. Grafton’s remaining buildings stand as a place holder, a physical memory of a time and lifeway few living today recall. Towns like this are rare, and becoming rarer. Most pioneer villages either lost their historic heart as they grew into modern towns or were washed away in flash floods. Grafton is intriguing to the traveler. Is it the area’s beauty and thoughts of past times? Is it the peaceful, quiet, breathtakingly beautiful surroundings capable of hosting a bustling community of people that lived so close to each other that community life took on a fellowship of camaraderie, mutual love, and support? Is it where survival, and colonizing success, meant people had to depend on each other? At times, the traveler may think, yes, this is the way it ought to be.
Perhaps the most photographed ghost town historic structure in the Western U.S., is this rustic adobe building that stands in front of the massive tan and red walls of Zion National Park. The subject of countless movies, paintings and photographs, the building’s hand-made beauty adds a note of human gracefulness to the outstanding natural beauty that surrounds it.
The schoolhouse’s 2-story walls stand on a solid foundation of lava rocks quarried from the nearby hillside; its colored adobe bricks were hand-made from a pit of clay on the west end of town. The settlers cut trees for this structure from Mount Trumbull, nearly 75 miles away, and bought them across the Arizona Strip and down the steep canyon cliffs of the wood road near the cemetery.
The town’s people used this building as a school, community meeting place, church as well as a place for dances and plays. People would come from all the settlements on the Upper Virgin River to attend the community dances, which were held on weekends. As was customary with dances in the early west, they continued early into the morning, sometimes until dawn. Then people would hitch up their wagons, buggies or horses and head back to their homes for Saturday chores and Sunday preparations. The last classes were taught in this building during the 1918-19 school year at which time the enrollment had dwindled to nine students. The following year students were transferred to the school at Rockville.
Alonzo Haventon Russell came to Grafton in December 1861 with his wife Nancy Briggs Foster and their children. He may have built the home that remains standing in Grafton at the same time the school was built in 1886. The adobe home has a beautiful restored hand-crafted front porch where Alonzo’s family often met to socialize, sing, and listen to the music of his guitar. Alonzo Russell had his own family band called the Russell Band in which he played drums and fifer. His sons played fiddles, accordions, guitars, and mandolins. Alonzo was an expert blacksmith by trade and supplied the town with eating utensils and farm tools in addition to repairing broken wagon parts, sharpening plows, and shoeing horses. Because Indians would try to steal their cattle, Alonzo made hobbles for the cattle the Indians couldn’t undo.
Alonzo had four spouses. His first wife, Fanny Malina Royce died in childbirth in 1845. He then married Nancy Briggs Foster. Alonzo made a loom for Nancy and they carried it across the plains. Later it was given to the museum at Pipe Springs National Monument, and a replica can be viewed there today. Alonzo and Nancy had nine children; the last four died as infants. In 1853 Alonzo married Clarissa Henrietta Hardy as a plural wife. She gave birth to three children before their divorce. One of the children died as an infant, and Alonzo and his second wife Nancy raised the other two. In 1856 Alonzo married Nancy’s sister, Louisa Maria Foster. Louisa gave birth to nine children. Nancy lived in the large adobe home and Louisa lived across the street in the small log cabin that has been restored.
Alonzo lived in the adobe home until he died in 1910 at the age of 89; he is buried in the Grafton Cemetery. Louisa Maria Foster and Nancy Briggs Foster are also buried in Grafton Cemetery. Alonzo’s son Frank Stephen Russell bought the house for $200 and a cow. Frank and Mary Ellen Ballard Russell moved into the house in 1917 and lived there until they moved to St. George in 1944. They were some of the last residents to leave Grafton.
John and Ellen Smith Wood and their children lived in Grafton. John was a farmer, raised cattle, worked in a blacksmith shop, and made beautiful horse-hair ropes and hackamores in his spare time. An historic split-rail fence surrounds the property. Ellen died on May 7, 1898, and is buried in Grafton cemetery. John lived in Grafton until 1909, then moved to Hurricane, where he died August 4, 1911 at the age of 92. The property contains two other buildings: a large log barn (1877) and a raised one-room log granary (1877).
David and Maria Smith Ballard built a home and barn around 1907 in Grafton and the buildings still stand. David was born at Grafton in 1867 to John Harvey Ballard and Charlotte Pincock. David died in 1939 at the age of 72 and is buried in Rockville. Maria was born in Rockville in 1867 and died in Cedar City in 1917 at the age of 50. Her father was Charles N. Smith. Like most other Grafton residents, David worked as a cattle rancher. Cattle ranching became Grafton’s principal industry decades earlier due to the difficulty and unpredictability of growing crops. He is Jeff Ballard’s grandfather. David’s father, John Harvey Ballard, first settled Grafton in 1862. He was a farmer, stock raiser, postmaster, and shoe mender. He was also an excellent violinist and provided music for local communities. He served as a chorister for many years. John and Charlotte had 14 children: 11 sons and three daughters. Only five boys lived to adulthood. John and Charlotte and five of their children are buried in Grafton Cemetery.
Alonzo and his first wife Nancy returned to Grafton in 1868 after the Indian Troubles; however, his third wife Louisa remained in Rockville, giving birth to three more children while there. Between 1873 and 1879 Alonzo built this one story, gabled log home for Louisa Maria. In 1879 she returned to Grafton, and their six children were raised in this home.
In 1861, Sarah and William Hasting and their three children settled in Grafton. They lived in a wagon box, cooked over a campfire and lived on caneseed bread, pigweed and sego lily roots. William bought a dugout from the Romney family (Hastings Dugout). It is now just a depression in ground behind the cabin pictured above. The lot is located on a corner across the street from the schoolhouse. The dugout was a room 12 by 14 feet, which was a hole dug in the ground and hill and walled up in front with two windows and a door. William died in 1882 at the age 58. Sarah lived there for over 50 years and moved from Grafton to Hurricane in 1915. She died in 1920 at the age of 90.
In 1947 a log cabin was moved from Beaver, Utah to the Hastings Dugout lot in Grafton for the movie Ramrod. The cabin interior had plaster walls and used extensively in the movie as Rose’s home and dressmaker shop. My father always called it the Ruby cabin so I will call it the Rudy Rose cabin. My father, Jack Harden fell in love with Grafton. He was born in Salt Lake City and we would drive back and forth from Los Angeles stopping at Grafton. We either forged the Virgin River barefoot, or walked across a board and cable footbridge, or drove across the steel bridge. But we had to open and close many gates all along the dirt road to Grafton.
The Berry headstone found within the wood fenced enclosure near the center of the cemetery reminds us of a time when there wasn�t enough to go around. When the Utah Territory was settled, the upper Virgin River was already inhabited by native Southern Paiute peoples. Pioneers often settled the same places required by these native people for their subsistence. This competition for land and scarce resources led to conflict.
At the same time, Navajo people living south of the Colorado River were squeezed between pioneer settlement in Arizona to the south and Utah to the north. In December 1865, Navajo raiders stole cattle and horses from Kanab and the Shirts ranch at Paria. InJanuary 1866, two ranchers were killed at Pipe Spring and their cattle stolen. Consequently, the Mormon militia killed Indians near Pipe Springs and in retaliation the Indians killed the Berrys, who were traveling home to Berryville (now Glendale on Highway 89), near Colorado City. At the time, Grafton was the County Seat, and their bodies were brought to Grafton for burial.During this time, Mormon Church leader Brigham Young ordered villages in southern Utah to coalesce into towns of at least 150 men. Grafton and other Virgin River towns were deserted as townsfolk consolidated in Rockville. Grafton farmers returned daily to tend their fields, and by 1868, Grafton was resettled and the residents were back, working to create the future.
Mary Lavina Andrus died at one year of age; Mary Jane York, 28, died of tuberculosis, Byron Lee Bybee, 65, died of �poor health.� And there were accidents: Joseph C. Field, 9, was dragged to death by a horse.
Robert Madison Berry, 24, his wife Mary Isabella Hales Berry, 20, and brother Joseph Smith Berry, 22, were killed by Navajo raiders.
Today, the cemetery is an historical monument that provides a unique opportunity for area visitors to learn about early pioneer settlement and Grafton’s human history. It serves as a cultural legacy to the many families who are descendents of Grafton settlers.
The cemetery is included as a contributing feature to the proposed “Grafton Historic District”. The Grafton Heritage Partnership (Partnership) entered into a cooperative management agreement with the Bureau of Land Management so that the Partnership can manage the site. The agreement would allow the Partnership to improve existing site conditions by replacing the existing fence surrounding the cemetery with like-kind materials, repair the wood headstone enclosure, install interpretive signage that includes pioneer and Southern Paiute history.
Agriculture-the most useful, the most healthful, the most noble employment of man. I know of no pursuit in which more important service can be rendered to any country by improving its agriculture.
Agriculture played an important part of Grafton’s history. The settlers had to live off the land to survive. They built dams across the river and diverted water for cotton and other staple crops. They planted orchards and by 1855 the fruits were used fresh, dried and as preserves. A variety of nut trees were planted making pecans, black walnuts and almonds available. Some of these fruit and nut trees are still alive and producing.
As the years progressed, raising of cattle and other animals became an increasingly important occupation for the early settlers. Nearly every family had at least a few head. Shortly after 1865 they started to change from farming to cattle raising. The harvest in 1866 was from 21 acres of wheat, 45 acres of corn, 18 acres of cotton and 8 acres of sugar cane.
By about 1874, silk production had become common in Grafton. However, as with cotton, silk production lasted only a few years. The settlers were more concerned with growing food crops and were often too busy recovering from floods to concentrate on silk and cotton production.
The Partnership is working with the other landowners in Grafton in order to conserve this agricultural, scenic and historical heritage.
This foot bridge, known as the Swinging Bridge shown above, was one of the ways to cross the river in early days another was by horse team or by wading, as demonstrated by these women at the first Grafton reunion in 1961. In 1924 the Historic Rockville Bridge was constructed that provided another way to get to Grafton.
A visit to Grafton wouldn’t be complete without a visit to the Virgin River that forms the Townsite’s northern boundary. Pioneers raised garden crops on the few acres of sandy river-deposited soil next to Grafton. Today, these soils support an impressive gallery of trees, plant and wildlife species, including one of only a handful of remaining stands of cottonwood trees anywhere along the Virgin River.
The Partnership is interested in helping manage the floodplain for native plant communities. This will include removing the exotic tamarisk and Russian olive trees and restoring the natural cottonwood, willow, and grass communities.
A restored floodplain with native plants presents an opportunity to interpret Grafton’s natural history, especially as it relates to the town’s human history. It was the river that both gave life to and drove away Grafton’s residents. |

Does Colour Matter in Safety Footwear?
One of the questions our sales associates in footwear hear frequently is “do they come in other colours?” which is a tough question to answer. The answer is not cut and dry – most styles of safety footwear are available in only one colour, but you can find safety footwear in different colours by looking at different styles. The colour of the footwear itself has nothing to do with whether or not the shoe or boot is safety rated – they could be neon orange and still safety rated or tan and not CSA approved. The colour that matters in safety footwear is on the tag – it’s those symbols that tell you that your footwear is CSA approved. If you want to learn more about safety symbols found on our footwear and work apparel check out our guide here.
When it comes to safety footwear for men, the standard colours are black, tan, and brown. Boots tend not to vary from these 3 colours, but some safety shoes do. The running shoe style safety shoes such as the Timberland Powertrain come in colourful styles while still providing electrical shock, sole puncture, and steel toe protection. There are other running shoe style safety shoes that have a black or grey upper but a non-marking coloured sole. Of course if you’re looking for high visibility safety footwear, the bright orange Viking Timberwolf boots fit the bill nicely.
Women’s safety boots, on the other hand, come in many colours. In addition to the traditional black, tan, and brown, we carry women’s safety boots in pink, red, and blue. Women’s safety running shoe style shoes also come in a number of colours – either as accents to a more traditional coloured shoe, or as the main colour of the shoe itself, such as the Kodiak Meg.
While the colour of the safety footwear doesn’t have anything to do with its effectiveness (other than the aforementioned high visibility boots), it can make a difference in how you feel in your shoes. You’re going to be spending a lot of time in your work footwear, so pick one that you truly love. |

“I am very happy with the church; the church helps us. The government cannot do without the church." — Pascal Mombi Opana, vice governor in Orientale Province.
KISANGANI, Democratic Republic of Congo (UMNS) — United Methodist churches are growing and schools are overflowing in this large district. The churches face many challenges, but evangelism is not one, said the Rev. Litalema Bogega, superintendent of Kisangani 1. Kathy Gilbert and Mike DuBose report.
KISANGANI, Democratic Republic of Congo (UMNS) — The Wagenia village is part of the Kisangani district. For more than 200 years, fishermen have fished in the rapids at Stanley Falls in the Congo River. United Methodist pastors make a pastoral call on the small village. Mike DuBose has the story in pictures.
PORTLAND, Ore. (UMNS) — The sponsorship department of the General Council on Finance and Administration has exceeded its goal of raising $600,000 through the General Conference sponsorship and exhibitors program. As of this month, the program has raised $637,600 to help defray the costs of the denomination’s top legislative assembly, which will be May 10-20 in Portland, Oregon. Altogether, the 2016 General Conference will have 130 exhibit booths.
NEW YORK (UMNS) — At any given moment across the world, more than 663 million people are drinking water that could be contaminated because they lack any other real option. That is why WASH — the water, sanitation and hygiene work of the United Methodist Committee on Relief — is helping more communities than ever before gain access to clean water. Susan Kim reports for UMCOR.
CHICAGO (UMNS) — What do five pastors in five different conferences and four different jurisdictions have in common? Besides the fact that they are all United Methodist elders and graduates of Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary, they have shared a unique bond for more than 10 years as part of a covenant group. Anne Marie Gerhardt reports for the Northern Illinois Conference.
ATLANTA (UMNS) — Candler School of Theology’s Luke Timothy Johnson was in the right place at the right time in 1996. His book, "The Real Jesus," became a blockbuster of the Lenten season. Johnson, the Robert W. Woodruff Professor of New Testament and Christian Origins at Emory's Candler School of Theology, recently talked about the book that made him a leading figure opposing the research and scholarship of the widely publicized Jesus Seminar. The seminar was a group of some 200 biblical scholars who sought to verify or disprove sayings and actions attributed to Jesus through historical review and analysis.

This Americana themed, multipurpose tote is suitable for the pool, the green market, or a fun day trip.
Choose four strips of fabric from the jelly roll. I used the dark blue paisley, the white and blue tossed plums, the blue with white sprays of flowers, and the dark blue lattice with roses. The fabric width is already 2 ½”, so simply lay out each strip on your cutting board, measure out 2 ½” across the length, and cut away.
Using my patterns, cut 12 squares of the dark blue paisley, 12 squares of the white and blue tossed plums, 6 squares of the blue with white sprays of flowers, and 6 squares of the dark blue lattice with roses.
Sew right sides of two squares together using a ¼” seam allowance. You can chain piece if you like. Use a dry iron or finger press your seam allowances to the darker side. Keep the layout photo as a handy reminder. Sometimes distractions come up and those tiny squares get jumbled up.
Now sew the completed set of two squares into blocks of four. Make sure your seams interlock. I rub my fingers together over the joining seam prior to sewing. If they are locked in, you will be able to feel a smooth connection. Gently pull the two pieces apart to see if the join is locked. The locked joins will yield a sharp intersecting point on the face. Again press the seams to one side after finishing.
Join the three sets of blocks across into three rows. Press the seams to one side for each row.
Finally, join the three rows together. It is a good idea to pin the joins for the final row of sewing to keep the intersections aligned.
Voila! The Front Panel is complete.
Measure the length of the left side of your panel (mine was 12 ½”), and cut a solid red strip from the jelly roll the same size. Now cut the strip in half lengthwise. I ended up with two strips measuring 12 ½” x 1 ¼”. With right sides together, sew the left and right borders to your panel. Now repeat these steps for the top and bottom borders of your panel.
Repeat the steps for the front panel to create your back panel. I chose different fabrics, and used the lighter blue paisley, the white and blue tossed miniatures, the light blue and white rose, the lighter blue lattice with roses, and solid cream for the border. Cut 12 squares of the paisley, 12 squares of the miniatures, 6 squares of the roses, and 6 squares of the lattice.
Here is the layout for the Back Panel.
Measure the sides of your front and back panels. They should be approximately the same size, but no worries if they are a bit off, we are going to trim the pieces before construction.
For each side, choose four strips of fabric from the jelly roll, and cut to the larger measurement (better too big than too small). The fabrics I chose are pictured. Straight stitch these four strips together to create the side panel. Repeat these steps to create your second side panel. I chose to use the red paisley and the tossed plum on beige for both. The variation is in the colors of the blue and white roses and lattice with roses. In one panel I used the lighter blue and in the other the darker.
Measure the bottom of your front and back panels. Choose four strips of fabric, cut to the larger measurement, and straight stitch together. Pictured are my selections.
We are going to treat each of the five panels as if they are mini quilts. Cut a piece of the 1 yard of solid navy so that it is 1” larger on all sides of your first panel to be quilted. Then cut a piece of cotton batting the same size. Make a quilt sandwich by positioning your solid navy face down on your mat, followed by the batting and the panel face up. Secure your sandwich with pins. Quilt your panel as you like. I used a simple “stitch in the ditch” approach with each panel. Sandwich and quilt the rest of your panels.
After you finish quilting, trim up each panel. This is the point where you can ensure the pieces are all the same size.
Decide which edge you would like to be the top of your front, back, and side panels because we are about to give them a nice finish. Measure the top of the panel you are working on and cut a piece of solid navy to fit its width. My first panel measured 13 ½”, so I cut a strip 13 ½” x 2 ½”. Now press that strip in half, and sew the raw edge to the raw edge of the panel like a quilt binding. After adding the binding, turn the strip and hand stitch binding to the back lining. Repeat for the three remaining panels. The bottom panel does not need to be bound because it will be sewn to the body of the tote bag on all four sides.
Cut two strips of solid navy to 21” x 4”. This will yield a handle approximately 8” in height from the top of the bag. Fold each strip in half lengthwise and press. Open up each strip and fold the sides to meet in the middle. The pressed fold will help to gauge the center.
Cut two strips of batting to 21” x 1” and tuck it inside flush against one side. Sew the open side closed. To keep it balanced in appearance, sew another line down the opposite side.
Measure 3” from each end of the top front and top back panels. Pin the handle so the end of the handle meets the bottom of the solid border. Make sure the handles are not twisted prior to sewing. Simply hold it up and you will see if it is not correct. Using a “stitch box”, sew each handle to the top of your panel.
We are going to put the bag together using a binding to join and hide the exposed seams. Choose eight strips from the jelly roll, or use solid navy if you want the inside of the tote bag to be all one color.
Start by sewing the front panel to the bottom panel. Measure the edge of the bottom panel lengthwise. Cut a binding strip the measure length by 2 ½”. Press the strip in half. Sew it to the edge of the bottom panel. Place the bottom panel on top of the front panel with the sewn binding on the bottom.
Turn the two panels over so the lining side of the front panel is now facing you. Reach under and turn the binding around to the lining side of the front panel. Pin the binding to the lining side for sewing.
Sew both pieces together on the lining side. Take your time and make sure you are sewing through both panels.
When you finish and open it up, you will see that the two panels are now joined and the seam is covered by the binding.
Now assemble the back panel to the bottom using the same procedure.
Pictured is the front panel attached to the bottom with the back panel ready to be assembled.
Next add the two side panels.
We are almost done. Take a breath, you are doing great!
Now it is time to make this guy into a real tote. In order to sew the side seams to the bottom, twist the side panel and place it on the one side of the bottom panel. Add the binding as you did before. You will be constructing the balance of the seams working in a clockwise fashion.
After all of the pieces are joined with seams your new tote is done. Your tote is completely washable. Since it is quilted, each wash will enhance your design.
If you would like your bag to stand up in a more uniform manner, add the seams to the outside of the panels instead of the inside. The photo shows the bag inside out. You will see it stands up proud and tall. By adding the seams to the outside, the bad is able to stand on its own. The seams on the inside give the face side a clean look. You are the designer. It is all up to you.
1 tote bag. Measures 13”W x 13”H (excluding handles) x 7”D. Machine washable.

Because we are builders, we have great respect for previous generations of builders who also understood form, function and quality.
We have had the amazing pleasure of rehabilitating and restoring the products of nineteenth century craftsmen whose buildings defined the communities they lived in, and still do today.
Our signature heritage project, CenterBeam Place in the heart of Saint John NB, has received national recognition from the Canadian Urban Institute, winning Brownie awards for Excellence in Project Management and Best Medium Scale project in Canada. We were able to save a whole city block of Victorian brick buildings, and join them into a modern multi-use complex with an interior atrium and exterior courtyard. Prestige street level retail and upper story professional offices at CenterBeam Place are highly sought. Even more gratifying, the project has been a catalyst for heritage redevelopment in surrounding streets and has returned vibrancy to the uptown area. |
« A propósito de los reveses del equipo Cuba en el tope beisbolero con EE.UU.
Published July 22, 2013 | By .
Four USA Baseball Collegiate National Team pitchers combined to hold Cuba to four hits and didn’t allow a runner past first base en route to a 1-0 victory Saturday night.
Pitching has dominated the series, as the teams played their third straight one-run ballgame. The difference in Saturday’s win for Team USA was a fourth-inning run. It marked the only half inning in the game that a team sent more than four batters to the plate. Cuba and Team USA managed just five base runners apiece.
Cuba’s Norge Ruiz dominated his first time through the order, striking out five of the first nine batters faced. The second time through the order got off to a strong start for Team USA, as Trea Turner (NC State) opened the fourth with a base hit to left-center. LSU’s Alex Bregman followed with a base knock to give Team USA a pair of base runners. With one out and runners on the corners, Michael Conforto (Oregon State) broke the scoreless tie with a sacrifice fly to left.
Team USA was in full control of the game, from the mound to the defense. The Red, White and Blue played flawless defense for the second game in the series, and on the mound, Finnegan (3-1) shut down Cuba’s offense for seven innings. He allowed just four total base runners on three hits and a first-inning walk. A one-out single in the second was erased on a double play.
In the eighth inning, Team USA turned to the bullpen to get the final six outs. David Berg (UCLA) pitched in his third straight game, collecting the first two outs of the eighth. He gave up one hit and struck out two. Chris Diaz (Miami, Fla.) did his job, striking out the only batter he faced to end the frame. Arizona State’s Ryan Burr had a bounce-back outing as he retired the side in order in the ninth for his fourth save of the summer. He struck out the game’s final batter to lock up the series victory for Team USA.
The victory ensures the series win for Team USA. The Collegiate National Team is 18-3 overall this summer and 3-0 against Cuba. The series shifts to North Carolina for the final two games. UNLV’s Erick Fedde will start Game 4 Monday night at the National Training Complex in Cary. |

Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi traces its beginning back to 1947, when Ward Island became the home of the University of Corpus Christi with 312 students enrolled. In 1989, the University joined the A&M System and has since grown to five colleges. The Island University now has more than 12,000 students from across the nation and 50 countries.
The University slogan is "The Island University". Texas A&M-Corpus Christi is the only university in the nation that is located on its own island.
Izzy the Islander is the official mascot of Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi. He embodies the spirit of the campus and is primarily seen at Islanders athletic functions.
From a fiesta to casino games, our yearly homecoming tradition spans an entire week. The Tip-Off Picnic, Lighting of the “I” Spirit Rally, and a Homecoming Pep Rally and Tailgate held downtown are just a few of the long-standing traditions. All of this is topped off with the grand finale Men’s and Women’s basketball games and naming of the Homecoming Court.
In addition to the traditional cap and gown, our graduation gear includes a fresh flower lei. When you receive your degree at commencement, you will turn your class ring around, with the name facing outward. This symbolizes that the graduate is now ready to face new challenges outside the University.
Receive your Islander Ring in the presence of your friends, family and university dignitaries at the Islander Ring Ceremony. The bi-annual ceremony is a campus tradition for our students who have made it to their junior year. The Islander Ring symbolizes pride, achievement, and university spirit. Receiving your ring during the official Ring Ceremony signifies that you are close to becoming a distinguished member of the Islander Alumni Association. Until you graduate, you will wear your ring with the Islanders name facing toward you.Each ring recipient is given a sand dollar at their ring ceremony. Like a penny in a wishing well, this token is then tossed into the fountain at Woo Sung Lee Plaza during the Islander Ring Wish.
The official colors of Texas A&M-Corpus Christi are blue and green, with silver serving as an accent. Blue is the dominant color for all purposes.
The ‘Shaka‘ is the universal university greeting. It can be used as a greeting or goodbye, a sign of approval or praise, as well as a symbol of school spirit.
Make a fist with the back of your hand facing out.
How you “shaka” from there is up to you. Some like to shake their “shaka” while others prefer to lock their “shaka” with a fist pump.
Alma Mater we praise your name.
That your spirit is kept aflame.
All lifting their voices praising you.
To the ends of the Earth we your worth will hail! |

The Lord did a wonderful work in Lilongwe, Malawi, Africa through Rabbi Schneider. About 150 Pastors united to help build large crowds for the crusade. Rabbi anointed each Pastor and leader with oil, releasing a fresh anointing to build the Kingdom of God in Malawi. e Pastors prophesied that Malawi was like a pregnant woman about to give birth to something new and great, and that Rabbi coming was the beginning of this birth. eir prophecy came true as thousands from the area traveled to the crusade to hear Rabbi preach the Good News of Messiah Jesus.
Rabbi encouraged the people to not be passive when approaching the Lord. In order to receive and meet God, they needed to have both a deliberate passion and an unwavering faith. is moved the people. They became passionate, as their faith rose up, in anticipation that the Lord would meet them there in that moment. And our faithful Father did!
from her eyes as she rubbed them and she could now see clearly. A twelve-year-old girl who was partially deaf in both ears ran from her home, determined to come to the crusade to be healed. A er Rabbi prayed the healing prayer, Jesus healed her and she could hear completely in both ears! A man that had paralysis in both legs and could only walk by shuffling his feet, began running and jumping and praising God! Many more testimonies were shared.
Beloved, it is through your faithful giving that these precious lives have been changed! You share in the reward of bringing Jesus to Malawi (ranked poorest Nation in the world). May God continue to establish His Kingdom, making Malawi the warm heart of Africa! |
That really struck me as an awesome legacy graduation gift. To think that that child would have forever notes and thoughts written by their mother in a Bible she used for several years. Inside that Bible would be thoughts she had while reading the scriptures, sermon points from a pastor, highlighted verses that were particularly special to her. It would be like having her with them every morning as they studied the Word.
I’m not an artist either. But this idea just dawned on me this week. And I have been inspired several times already.
What a cool idea! I’m not really artistic, so this looks like a great way to add a little creativity to the notes I take :). |
Gencell Energy was founded in 2011 as a breakthrough company in the field of backup solutions based on hydrogen and fuel cells. The company wanted to consolidate its brand strategy and also to accordingly change its logo and website.The only graphic element that we were provided with was the design of the product itself: the generator.
Following an initial meeting with the company, one interesting word was brought up: “Land Rover”. When you break a Land Rover down, you get an off-road vehicle that is massive and powerful yet meticulously decorated and delicate, endowed with rounded and honed corners. So we thought it appropriate to use these values as an inspiration and basis for the branding. To produce the appropriate balance between serenity and tension, we decided to combine diagonals and rounded corners. The company logo was written using a firm, bold font with a gentle inclination to the right symbolizing movement and dynamism. On the home page of the site, we introduced the four critical points on which the company focuses and which summarize the positive attitude of the company’s strategy: the world keeps moving, information flows, businesses as usual, and Gencell keeps us safe and alive. |
Is it possible to use the ID's of channels and sensors as placeholders in a python script, save them in a value and then compare those values in the script?
If it is, what are the placeholders for the channel and sensor ID so that I can use those in a script?
Unfortunately, those placeholders are not available, but you can run API calls in the script to get live data from specified sensors. You can find a manual for those calls in "Setup > API > Live Data".
Please let me know, if that fits your requirements.
thanks for the reply. Too bad the placeholders do not exist, I had hoped to use those to make the script dynamic and maybe save it in a device template.
Hardcoding the API link means making a different script for every single device or changing the API url whenever the script needs to run on a different device.
Is there no way to dynamically get sensor/channel ID's into a python script? This would also be great in relation to templates/Auto-Discovery.
You can use the set placeholders in the corresponding API calls to make it more dynamic.
You can find a list of placeholders in this KB post.
The placeholders you linked are unfortunately not what I am looking for. Since I want to use the script in a template it will need more work than just getting a sensor OID. I need to compare the sensors names that are in the template or something.
I think I need to go through the API and look at the sensors listed under the device that was just configured through auto-discovery and get the sensors with specific names and their corresponding OIDs. I could then concatenate those sensor IDs to the API request and get the live data I need.
Please let us know, if you need further information.
I do not need more information, as I have decided to leave the Python script as it is. I will document it for later use, it might be interesting for other applications. |
