To administer the Public Service Registry, select Ensemble > Configure > Public-Service Registry. The Public Service Registry is protected by row-level security; consequently, you must have the %EnsRole_RegistryManager role in order to access the Public Service Registry.
For information on the fields in the public registry, see Fields in both the Public and the External Service Registries and Internal Fields in the Public Service Registry. For information on creating and maintaining entries in the service registries, see Creating and Maintaining a Service Registry Entry. For information on searching the service registries, see Searching and Viewing the Service Registry.
To administer the External Service Registry, select Ensemble > Configure > External-Service Registry.
For information on the fields in the external registry, see Fields in both the Public and the External Service Registries. For information on creating and maintaining entries in the service registries, see Creating and Maintaining a Service Registry Entry. For information on searching the service registries, see Searching and Viewing the Service Registry.
This section describes the fields in the public and external service registries. Most fields are identical in the public and external service registries. In addition to these fields that are common to both registries, the public Service Registry has some private fields. These fields are only accessible to the registry administrator and are not accessible through the public REST API.
Name identifies the service. The other attributes identifying the service are the Domain and Version. Each registry should adopt conventions on how these attributes are used. The Domain typically identifies the category of the service and Version is a string representing a version number. Name in combination with Domain and Version must be unique for each entry. For example, two or more entries may have the same name as long as the domains are different or the versions are different.
Version identifies the version of the service.
Domain specifies the category of the service.
Lifecycle Stage describes the development state of the service. It can have one of the following values: Concept, Development, Test, Staging, Live, Deprecated, and Defunct.
Service Protocol describes the protocol used by the client to access the service. It can have any of the following values: File, FTP, HL7, HTTP, REST, SOAP, SQL, X12, and any custom value. In the External Service Registry, the Service Protocol determines how the Endpoint is used to set the business operation properties. You can explicitly enter TCP as the service protocol but it is not listed in the drop-down choices.
Endpoint specifies the location of the service. On the public Service Registry, the endpoint is typically a URL of a business service on the ESB. On the External Service Registry, the endpoint provides information about the location of the data or service and is used to set the properties of the ESB host.
Response Style describes how the service returns a value. It may have one of the following values: Sync, Callback, Remote Deposit, or a blank value.
Topics allow you to define search terms to aid in searching for registry entries from the administrator page and from the public API. You cannot enter values when you create a registry entry but can add them by entering the values in the Details panel. You can specify topics by entering a list of terms, separated by commas, or by checking one or more topics from the drop-down menu. The drop-down menu lists topics that have already been defined for registry entries.
Type—Specifies the name of the schema definition mechanism used to describe the schema. You can select WSDL, XSD, HL7, SEF, X12, AST, or EDF, or you can enter the name of any other schema definition mechanism.
Reference—Specifies the URL of the schema definition.
Notes—Provides supplementary information about the schema.
Thumbnail—Provides a brief text excerpt from the schema.
Content—Provides the full text content of the schema definition.
Name—Specifies the name used by the Registry to identify this action.
Reference—Identifier for the action or web method.
Verb—Specifies the HTTP request method. Typically, this is GET, PUT, POST, or DELETE, but you can enter any HTTP request method.
Read Only—If checked, specifies that the call does not make any changes to the state of the server.
Idempotent—If checked, specifies that making multiple identical calls have the same impact on the server as making a single call.
Description—Specifies a text explanation of the action.
Request Schema—Specifies the format of the incoming message body and consists of the following subfields: Type, Reference, Notes, Thumbnail, and Content.
Response Schema—Specifies the format of the response message body and consists of the following subfields: Type, Reference, Notes, Thumbnail, and Content.
Attributes specify a list of name-value pairs that allow you to specify any arbitrary field in the registry entry. You cannot add an attribute when you create a registry entry, but you can add attributes by Selecting the Attributes + (plus sign) in the Details panel. Each attribute consists of a name and a string value. Once you have defined an attribute, you can update the value or delete the attribute, but cannot change the name of the attribute.
Identity—Specifies the name or other identity of the person or organization.
Contact Type—Specifies whether the contact is the service Author, Consumer, Provider, Operator, Manager, or Sponsor.
Business Partner—Provides a link to the Ensemble business partner object, which provides contact information such as address and phone numbers. Note that the public API only provides the business partner name and does not include any of the contact information from the business partner object.
Details—Specifies details about the contact, for example you could enter phone numbers, email addresses, or other contact information that can be accessible through the public API.
Notes—Specifies supplementary information about the contact.
Once you have defined a contact, you can update any of the subfields except for the Identity. You can also delete the contact by selecting the red X.
Filename—Provides the name of the file. The name of the file in the registry does not have to be the same as the name of the original file on your local file system or on the Ensemble server.
File Extension—Provides information on the format and purpose of the file. This field is set by the last part of the file name.
MIMEType—Provides information on the application used to access the file.
CharEncoding—Provides the character encoding information.
File Size—Provides the file size. This field is calculated from the file contents.
Contents—When you create a file, this subfield is set to the contents of the file.
The following are internal attributes, which are only present on the public Service Registry. These internal attributes are only accessible to administrators who are using the management portal. These attributes are not accessible through the public API to the service registry.
This checkbox controls whether the information about this service is available through the Registry's public API. If Public is true (the box is checked) then the API returns information about this service if the user is authorized to see it based on the Required Roles setting. If Public is false, no information about this service is returned by the public API.
Required Roles specifies a list of roles that provide public API access to the registry entry. In order for a user to retrieve information about a registry entry, the user must have one of the roles listed in Required Roles. The user may have this role by either being logged into Ensemble or by using a web application with this role. See "Defining Roles and Users for the Public Service Registry" for details on how to define these roles.
Instance identifies the Ensemble instance that is providing the service at the specified endpoint. Typically, this is the Ensemble instance used for the ESB and service registries. In cases where the endpoint service is not provided by an Ensemble business service, leave this field blank.
Namespace identifies the Ensemble namespace that is providing the service at the specified endpoint. Typically, this is the Ensemble namespace used for the ESB and service registries. In cases where the endpoint service is not provided by an Ensemble business service, leave this field blank.
Production identifies the Ensemble production that is providing the service at the specified endpoint. Typically, this is the ESB Ensemble production. In cases where the endpoint service is not provided by an Ensemble business service, leave this field blank.
ConfigName identifies the Ensemble configuration item that is providing the service at the specified endpoint. Typically, this is configuration item is a business service in the ESB Ensemble production. In cases where the endpoint service is not provided by an Ensemble business service, leave this field blank.
If you create a new service entry in the External Service Registry, Ensemble displays a similar form that omits the Internal Information fields and the Visible field.
When you are creating a new service entry, you must enter values in the Name, Domain, and Version required fields before selecting the Save button. You cannot change the values in these three fields after saving the registry entry. You can create a copy of the registry entry with new values in these fields by selecting the registry entry and then selecting Save As in the Actions panel.
The Actions, Attributes, Contacts. and Files fields take multiple values. To add a new item, select the Add Action, Add Attribute, Add Contact, or Add File plus sign. Fill in the form and then select Apply. You can update an existing item by selecting the clipboard for that item. You can delete an item by selecting the red X for that item.
The Actions panel allows you to delete a registry entry or save a copy with changes to one or more of the required fields: Name, Domain, and Version.
The Next and Previous buttons and the search panel allow you to view the registry entries. If there are more registry entries than will fit on a single page, the Next and Previous buttons allow you to scroll through the entries. The search panel allows you to find the registry entries that match your query.
Specify the Page Size, which specifies the maximum number of registry entries that can be displayed in a page.
Sort the registry entries by Name, Domain, Version, Service Protocol, Lifecycle Stage, and Last Time Modified. You can sort in ascending order (the default) or descending order.
You can also display the values of specific attributes in the list of services by using the Modify Display field.

With songs like Chased By I Don't Know What, Scottish three-piece Snow Patrol clearly have an eye for the macabre. Sadly, judging by the not-great performance of their last album – Songs for Polar Bears – stupidity doesn't translate into record sales. Thankfully then, this offering has the true markings of quality. On first listen, it's packed with indie pop, but a bit of digging reveals some rather sad lyrics that'll have you reaching for the hankies while admiring the riffs.


The master suite was created as an addition to a large family home. In crossing a bridge, you enter the sanctuary of the bedroom, which is combined with a sitting area that looks out over a garden. The wall that faces the street is a rich wood, both on the interior and exterior. It forms a protective shell, encasing the private space of a connected walk-in closet and the bathroom.
The interplay of interior and exterior create serene space of light and texture.This is especially apparent in the bathroom, where natural light is filtered through wooden slats and a skylight; intricate shadows are created from the floor to ceiling windows that face a private garden.
There is a careful attention and richness of materials in every surface in the bathroom. A slate of glass separates the shower. The bathroom moves into the walk-in closet behind a scrim and the walls are covered in a suggestive fabric. The tiles reflect a two tone hue. Textiles, glass and the clean lines of the fixtures allow a sophisticated flow of light throughout the space.
The back side of the addition faces the street, lending privacy to the master suite. It sits like a piece of hand-crafted furniture on the landscape. The exterior layers of wood are duplicated inside; bookcases and tables were also created by the architects. The bridge connects to the house and allows a delicate gaze into and through the addition.

Take this to your hairdresser for inspo.
Kate Middleton is a total style icon. Women everywhere watch her closely to emulate her style, as she's perfected a sort of clean elegance fit for a member of the royal family. She's also an icon when it comes to all things beauty, and people are always looking to replicate her beauty routine. Though her hair has remained mostly the same since she's been elevated into the spotlight, she's recently made a chop that we're predicting is going to start a trend.
The Duchess of Cambridge has worn her hair roughly the same long length for as long as we can remember, but it seems she was looking for a change. While attending day one of the Wimbledon Tennis Championships at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in London, Middleton wore a gorgeous black and white polka dot dress. However, the focus was mostly on her new 'do, which is a just-below-shoulder length lob styled in effortless loose waves.
The cut looks fresh and modern, and her hair looks bouncy and full. Middleton looks supremely happy in all the photos from event, and though she was probably just having a good time, we all know how refreshing it can feel to get a new haircut. Brb, saving these pics to my phone and making a hair appointment right now.

Den naturvidenskabelige revolution i 1500-tallet og 1600-tallet var en periode i videnskabshistorien, hvor nye ideer inden for astronomi, fysik, biologi, menneskets anatomi, kemi førte til opgør med de hidtil kendte doktriner, der havde været gældende siden oldtidens Grækenland og op gennem middelalderen samt delvis renæssancen. Centrale navne er i den naturvidenskabelige revolution er astronomerne Nicolaus Kopernikus (1473-1543), Tycho Brahe (1546-1601) og Johannes Kepler (1571-1630) samt fysikerne Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) og Isaac Newton (1642-1727).

Revolutionen lagde fundamentet for den moderne naturvidenskab. Blandt videnskabshistorikerne er der overvejende enighed om, at revolutionen begyndte med udgivelsen af to værker i 1543: Nicolaus Kopernikus: De revolutionibus orbium coelestium (Om de himmelske sfærers omdrejning) og Andreas Vesalius: De humani corporis fabrica (Om opbygningen af den menneskelige krop). Den fortsatte indtil slutningen af 1600-tallet, hvor Isaac Newton skrev sit hovedværk Principia mathematica (1686-87). Betegnelsen "videnskabelig revolution" for denne periode skyldes historikeren og filosoffen Alexandre Koyré, der brugte den fra 1939.

Revolutionens betydning

Perioden betød en fundamental forandring af videnskabelige ideer inden for astronomi, anatomi og fysik, inden for de institutioner, der understøttede videnskaben samt i den bredere folkelige opfattelse af universet. Intelligente personer begyndte at stille spørgsmålstegn ved alt, og det var disse spørgsmål, der ledte til den videnskabelige revolution, som igen blev grundlaget for moderne videnskab. Den videnskabelige revolution førte til etableringen af den moderne videnskab.

Mange samtidige skribenter og nutidige historikere hævder, at der var tale om en revolutionerende ændring i verdenssynet. I 1611 skrev den engelske digter John Donne:

[The] new Philosophy calls all in doubt,
The Element of fire is quite put out;
The Sun is lost, and th'earth, and no man's wit
Can well direct him where to look for it.

I den nyeste tid har sociologen og historikeren Steven Shapin indledt sin bog The Scientific Revolution med følgende paradoks: "Der fandtes ikke nogen videnskabelig revolution, og det handler denne bog om."

De nye ideer
Den videnskabelige revolution er ikke kendetegnet ved en enkelt forandring. Her følger en samling af de nye ideer, der bidrog til revolutionen:
 Ændringen fra Jorden til Solen som centrum i solsystemet.
 Forandringen fra den aristoteliske teori om, at materien bestod af de fire elementer: Jord, vand, luft og ild, til at betragte atomet som fundamentet i en kompleks kemisk opbygning af stofferne.
 Ændringen fra den aristoteliske opfattelse af, at tunge legemer naturligt bevægede sig nedad mod deres naturlige plads, at lette legemer naturligt bevægede sig opad mod deres naturlige plads, samt at luftige legemer naturligt bevægede sig uforanderligt i cirkler, til opfattelsen af at alle legemer har en tyngde og bevæger sig ifølge de samme fysiske love. Centralt er her Newtons opdagelse af de tre mekaniske love og tyngdeloven.
 Udskiftningen af Galens fysiologiske system om, at det venøse og det arteriske system var uafhængige af hinanden, med Harveys opfattelse af, at blodet cirkulerer mellem arterierne og venerne.

Every year for our annual Smith Spooktacular, I try to make (I am ashamed to say that there have been a couple of years where I (gasp)bought the awards for the costume contest.
This year I bought these table top decorations from Michaels at 40% off. I glued them onto jars and wood plaques. Next I primed and spay painted them gold.
Finally, I made labels on the computer and "Bedazzled" the trophies to make them more fun.
those are so cool. What a great idea!
You put me to shame. I think I will just stick to shredded currency.
I didn't know my sister Dandi followed your blog, cool!
I agree they look awesome. Anyone would be proud to win one!
I think these are my favorite crafty creations of yours so far. I love them!
One question, approximately what size are the plaques that you used?

The Call is open to participants between 18 to 25 years old, from West Africa, with a strong interest in growing their ability to act as agents of peace in their community, region and beyond.
August 12, 2016 Filed Under: Press Releases
On International Youth Day 2016, the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations (UNAOC) is pleased to launch the Call for Applications for the Young Peacebuilders in West Africa programme. The Call is open to participants between 18 to 25 years old, from West Africa, with a strong interest in growing their ability to act as agents of peace in their community, region and beyond.
Up to 20 young women and young men affiliated with youth-led and youth-focused organizations will be selected to participate in an intercultural dialogue and peacebuilding experience. Over the course of 12 weeks, the selected participants will interact online through a series of facilitated modules, and in-person, during a one-week workshop in Abuja, Nigeria. Participants will act as a force multiplier of the lessons learned through the program and actively take part in follow-up activities at the community level.
The aim of this new programme is to support the growth of networks of young peacebuilders who are equipped with the tools to address stereotypes, prejudice and polarization in order to build more inclusive and peaceful societies in their communities and globally. It is part of UNAOC's educational programming for young people, which seeks to enhance the ability of young people and their organizations to foster mutual respect, understanding and long-term positive relationships between peoples of different cultures and religions.
More details on the program and eligibility criteria available here.

Despite last week`s convictions of eight church activists in Arizona for smuggling refugees into the United States, a North Side congregation later this month will proclaim its church a sanctuary for illegal aliens fleeing war-ravaged Central America.
The declaration by the Lake View Presbyterian Church, to be made May 18, will bring to 12 the number of sanctuaries in the Chicago area. It is but one sign of the continued vigor of the sanctuary movement, its leaders say.
The guilty verdicts last Thursday are ''only going to make people more determined,'' predicted the Rev. Michael McConnell, a United Church of Christ minister and staff member of the Chicago Religious Task Force.
The sanctuary movement has grown considerably in the months since the January, 1985, indictments of 11 church men and women in Arizona on federal charges of transporting and harboring illegal aliens. Following a six-month trial, six were found guilty of conspiracy to violate immigration laws by smuggling refugees, and two were convicted of related felony counts. The jury acquitted the remaining three.
''The church always grows stronger when it`s persecuted,'' said Carol Larson, lay associate pastor of the Wheadon United Methodist Church, an Evanston sanctuary.
From its beginnings with a single Presbyterian church in Tucson in early 1982, the movement had by the start of last year become a national network of 180 churches and synagogues. Today, there are 304 sanctuaries around the country, according to sanctuary leaders. In the Chicago area, four churches and a synagogue were added in the last year.
Since July, 1982, when the Wellington Avenue United Church of Christ became only the second sanctuary in the country by taking in a family of six, Chicago-area congregations have sheltered about 175 of the 1,500 refugees taken in nationwide.
According to Weaver, more than 130 have been housed in the south suburban Mennonite Church, situated near major east-west and north-south expressways and thus at a switchpoint of this modern Underground Railroad.
The churches say the refugees are fleeing political persecution in their homelands, but are refused asylum here because of U.S. support for the governments of El Salvador and Guatemala. There are currently 14 Central Americans, seven from each of those two countries, living in four sanctuaries here.
The federal government charges that the refugees are illegal aliens simply trying to escape poverty and are therefore no different from, say, the hundreds of Mexicans who breach the border every day.
Four of Chicago`s current refugees are living in an apartment owned by the Markham Mennonite Church. One, a teenaged girl called Vanessa who gave birth to a boy 13 months ago, has been there since January, 1985.
Vanessa was joined in November by her mother, Ampara Morales, and a family friend named Roberto, Weaver said. He said both Ampara, a woman in her 40s, and Roberto, who is in his 20s, left behind their spouses and children. All three had received death threats from right-wing squads, according to Weaver.
Until that occurs, Neufeld said, the church will continue providing shelter for them and other refugees who make their way to Chicago.
Sanctuary leaders said, though, that it is unlikely that any refugees will be arriving here soon. While they say the trial bolstered the commitment on the part of the sanctuary workers outside the Southwest, the attention the proceedings demanded hobbled efforts along the U.S.-Mexican border.
No refugees have come to Chicago since January, when a Guatemalan woman and her brother-in-law were brought to the Wellington Avenue church.
Rev. John Scott, pastor of Lake View Presbyterian, said the 125-member congregation realized when it voted March 23 to declare itself a sanctuary that it should not expect ''anybody living in the building'' immediately.
But he said the idea of becoming a sanctuary had been considered for four years, and the trial prompted the congregation to act.
''We saw others around the country putting themselves on the line,'' Rev. Scott said. ''And as the first Presbyterian church in the Chicago area to make this declaration, we hope it will encourage others to make that step.

La Suzuki GSV-R es el nombre de la serie de prototipos de cuatro tiempos desarrollada por Suzuki para competir en el Campeonato Mundial de MotoGP. La GSV-R reemplazó a la RGV500 de 500 cc y dos tiempos que Suzuki utilizó entre 1986 y 2001 ganando dos títulos de pilotos con Kevin Schwantz en 1993 y Kenny Roberts Jr en 2000.

Historia
La GSV-R se introdujo en 2002, un año antes que el plan original, con el nombre clave XRE0. Las nuevas regulaciones estaban promoviendo el crecimiento de los motores de cuatro tiempos, y el rendimiento del nuevo motor durante las pruebas fue fuerte de acuerdo con Suzuki. A pesar del uso de un nuevo motor, la XRE0 estaba utilizando el viejo chasis de la Suzuki RGV500, algo que luego fue criticado por muchos analistas de MotoGP como un gran error. Usando el chasis y los carenados que se hicieron anteriormente para el motor RGV500 de dos tiempos, la XRE0 se vio obstaculizada por muchos problemas de estabilidad. El uso de la especificación de neumáticos de la RGV500 fue otro error. A pesar de todo eso, la XRE0 pudo conseguir su primer podio (2.º) en la primera ronda en Suzuka y obtuvo el tercer lugar en Río ese mismo año. Sin embargo, los logros de XRE0 fueron inconsistentes, ya que los pilotos a menudo chocaban, se caían o se veían obligados a retirarse por fallas técnicas. El mejor usuario de la XRE0 al final de la temporada 2002 fue Kenny Roberts, Jr. que logró el noveno lugar en la general.

Para 2007, las reglas de MotoGP cambiaron al permitir un desplazamiento máximo de 800 cc. Suzuki presentó una versión de 800 cc de la GSV-R también conocida como GSV-R800. La GSV-R800 tenía el nombre en código XRG0 debido a su motor recientemente rediseñado basado en las  limitaciones de desplazamiento. El nuevo motor XRG0 se basó en el diseño de la GSV-R  de 990 cc de 2006, sin embargo, el diámetro, la carrera y el paso del cilindro de los motores XRG0 se habían rediseñado para adaptarse mejor al desplazamiento del motor de 800 cc. El equipo de fábrica de Rizla Suzuki MotoGP declaró que el nuevo objetivo de los motores era 'lograr la mejor potencia posible y un funcionamiento confiable a altas rpm, y proporcionar a los pilotos una entrega de potencia fácil de usar y un carácter de motor predecible'. La XRG0 también estaba equipado con una Unidad de control de motor rediseñada suministrada por Mitsubishi, capaz de producir 220 caballos de fuerza a 17.500 rpm. El diseño del chasis y la distancia entre ejes de la  GSV-R XRE4 utilizada en la temporada 2006 de MotoGP se mantuvo en el nuevo modelo, sin embargo, el diseño de carenado se actualizó para adaptarse mejor a la estabilidad a alta velocidad.

La temporada 2008 de MotoGP trajo otra GSV-R800 rediseñada por Suzuki con el nombre en código XRG1 como el sucesor de la XRG0 del año anterior. Este prototipo de segunda generación fue la motocicleta de carreras más compleja y técnicamente más avanzada que Suzuki había producido en su época. La XRG1 se desarrolló estrechamente con los pilotos del equipo Rizla Suzuki MotoGP, Chris Vermeulen y Loris Capirossi y los comentarios del equipo de MotoGP y los ingenieros de Suzuki. Un área de enfoque clave para refinar el XRG1 fue mejorar la aceleración. Esto se logró perfeccionando cada detalle del motor de la XRG0 y una actualización de la Unidad de control de motor de Mitsubishi. El rediseño del motor resultante proporcionó un menor consumo de combustible y una mayor maniobrabilidad. Nuevos refinamientos del chasis de la XRG0 para el XRG1 de 2008 permitieron un mejor rendimiento en las curvas y un cambio de dirección. Junto con los refinamientos del chasis, se desarrolló un nuevo diseño del carenado para reducir la resistencia al viento y mejorar las características de manejo.

A finales de 2011, Suzuki abandonó MotoGP debido a la necesidad de reducir los costes en medio de la recesión económica mundial.

Dukinfield Primitive Methodists
Arrival of the 'Prims' in Manchester
The new movement reached Manchester about 1819, which became a centre for missioning the surrounding area. In May 1821, local preachers began regular Sunday meetings near Dukinfield – at Newton in the morning, Stalybridge in the afternoon, and a meeting in St Michael's Square, Ashton in the evening.
One of the preachers, Samuel Waller, was arrested and sentenced to three months imprisonment for causing an obstruction. The meetings continued, and a small society was formed in each of the three preaching places.
It was not long before preaching began in Dukinfield itself. Meetings were held in a building behind Town Lane, about 1823, close to the 'Half Moon' or Crescent. The cause flourished, whereas Stalybridge was almost abandoned in 1826, and Ashton ceased in 1829, but was restarted in 1835.
A camp meeting was held between Dukinfield and Stalybridge on 9 July 1826, followed by a lovefeast at the 'meeting house' in Dukinfield. This was followed up by an open air meeting on 23 July, and the next day an afternoon prayer meeting, 'the people being out of work'. Numbers grew, and in 1829 the town constable estimated that there were 100 Primitive Methodists in the town.
In 1825, Dukinfield became part of the Oldham Circuit, for which records survive from 1832. These show that William Wild was told 'not to comment on anyone's sermons'. In 1834 a decision was made to have no more beer at the Quarterly Meeting!
The First Foundry Street Chapel
By September 1836 there were 36 members and 77 scholars in Dukinfield, and the society wanted to move from their rented room to their own chapel. The first Primitive Methodist chapel was built just 30 yards away, on the corner of Princess Street and what was later called Foundry Street. The large plot of land had been obtained from the Dukinfield Estate, which gave room for a graveyard to the west.
The chapel was 'a good substantial brick building, 12 yards by 10, galleried on three sides and well fitted up.' It was very plain, apart from an elaborate fan light over the entrance. The galleries had pews, with the ground floor left open for the Sunday School. At the back was a small vestry.
The chapel was opened on Christmas Day 1836 with three services, and another on Boxing Day. It cost £700, at a time when the weekly income of many families was only about £1. A subscription of £40 was received from the local MP, Charles Hindley and his wife, and in 1837 the trustees were given permission 'to beg one shilling of each member throughout the circuit' to tackle the debt.
Reducing the debt
Money continued to be a problem, and in 1840 the circuit decided 'to employ Bro G Kemp as a Hired Local Preacher for the next quarter, for the purpose of begging money for Dukinfield Chapel and that he have £4 from the circuit and board.' Brother Kemp collected £55, which was a great help.
A chapel for the working class
In 1838, Dukinfield became part of the new Stalybridge circuit, and by 1850 was the strongest society in the circuit. It is interesting to note, that while Hugh Bourne thought politics a distraction from saving souls, the working people of Dukinfield were happy to use the chapel for political meetings.
In 1838, the Chartist newspaper, the Northern Star, reported on an anti-Poor Law meeting, which was held in the Primitive Methodist Chapel. Many of the members were miners. The baptism register shows that from 1850-1860, 38% of the fathers were colliers, compared to less than 7% of the working population of Dukinfield.
A story is told that the Primitive Methodist minister, John Garner, leapt to his feet when a visiting speaker from another denomination made some patronising comments. 'What does he mean by saying that we are illiterate and can only shout "Glory! Hallelujah! Amen!" and such like? I will challenge him myself, before this respectable and intelligent audience (the meeting consisted mainly of colliers) in Latin, Greek, Hebrew, Araybick, Syriack or what he likes and I am nought where my brethren come! … The colliers shouted, clapped, stamped with their clogs and quite a furore was produced.' Fortunately the speaker did not try to reply, as Garner admitted he would have knocked him off the platform! The next day the miners went to the pit boasting about their Ranter preacher, and his great scholarship.
The leading member at Foundry Street for 40 years, until his death in 1887, was Richard Hanson, 'a man of no great wealth but of considerable strength of character'. He was trustee, society steward, circuit steward and Sunday School Superintendent. He used to censor the Anniversary 'pieces', and despite only having one eye 'could see that which was almost invisible to people with two'.
Alice Phillips was another strong character. A local preacher, she arrived in Dukinfield in 1857 and was renoned for her black shawl and fierce denunciations of sin. During the cotton famine she ran a sewing class for the unemployed.
Richard W Burnett was given a note to preach in 1859. He became leader of the Dukinfield Mission Band, preaching on every street corner in the town, often at 7 o'clock in the morning! He entered the Primitive Methodist ministry in 1862, and in January 1870 was one of the two pioneer PM missionaries to Fernando Po, an island off the coast of West Africa. He served four terms there, despite the unhealthy climate, before his death in 1902.
Astley Street Primitive Methodist Chapel, 1872
Attempts to establish Primitive Methodist preaching on the other side of the town, around Dukinfield Hall (Globe Square) began as early as 1837, but did not take hold until 1850. The first chapel was built in 1866, but the society had to raise '£75 in good promises and hard cash' first. It opened in October, in Astley Street, but must have been very small, as it was rebuilt only five years later. The new chapel, which opened on 8 February 1872, cost £800, but could seat 300 and had a school underneath. John Hutchinson, the minister of Albion Chapel, Ashton, preached the opening sermon.
A new chapel had replaced the original building at Foundry Street by 1866. The graveyard had been closed in 1865, and in 1875 it was decided to move the bodies, build a new chapel on the site of the graveyard, and use the old chapel as a school.
The foundation stones were laid on Good Friday 1877, and the chapel opened the same year. It was a much more elaborate building, with Gothic windows and spirelets. It was also twice as big and three times as expensive, costing £2,300.
There were still working class members at Foundry Street. Benjamin Williams, was a young miner and local preacher, who prayed with this family every day before going to the pit. He was killed in the Astley Deep Pit explosion of 1874. However, the new style of architecture reflected the new style of members, such as Thomas Beeley (1833-1908). He was manager of Adamson's Boiler shop in his early thirties and founder of the Hyde Junction Iron Works. He was a trustee at Foundr Street, and became the chief benefactor of Rosemount Primitive Methodist Chapel, Newton.
Like Dukinfield, the Ashton Primitives rebuilt their chapel in 1877, but at £1,000, half the cost.
From Ranters to Respectability
In 1889, Foundry Street was the largest society in the circuit with 126 members. There were 100 at Katherine Street, Ashton, and 62 at Stalybridge. Foundry Street supported some of the smaller causes, such as Mossley, and the Sunday School at Hurst Brook.
In 1905 they acquired a new organ, and new schools in 1913, which replaced the old chapel. By 1914, Foundry Street had a town councillor, George Dean, among its members. There were also manufacturers, including the Claytons who ran a flour milling business in Charles Street, and Thomas Rose Hilton, who became known for his 'Cake-a-Pie' flour.
Astley Street perhaps remained more faithful to the early Primitive Methodist ethos. An old scholar recalled in the 1930s how as a child he had attended Dukinfield Hall Congregational School in his clogs, and had been asked to come in shoes the following week. At this, his father said, 'Keep your clogs and go to the Ranter school instead', which he did, becoming a regular attender at Astley Street.

Q: Display standard razor/mvc 3 validation messages displayed in another language What do I need to install to get the built-in validation messages of mvc be displayed in the current UI culture of the request? Are the resource files maybe a separate download?
e.g. The validation message "The Email field is required." Should be displayed in german when the culture is set to de-DE.
EDIT:
Need to be a bit clearer. I've done the complete localisation of custom validation messages allready using attributes with custom messages. The ones I still need to get translated are the out-of-the box ones.
e.g.
[Required]
public string Email {get;set;}

produces the validation message The Email field is required.
I'd like to have this in german and italian also, without having to go through every single property. (I am expecting there is language pack or something similar; Google wasn't able to produce anything though..)

A: Try to add the following in your Web.config file.
<system.web>
<globalization enableClientBasedCulture="true" uiCulture="auto" culture="auto"></globalization>
</system.web>

I think that is what you are looking for.

A: I've come up with a better way to localize models and validation messages. You do not have to use the attributes anymore. Instead I've created localized metadata providers.

Water law is in the news with the famous "Hirst" decision being used to blockade the state capital budget. To understand how this roaring mouse could hold up a billion-dollar budget, several myths need dispelling. The bottom line is that proliferating wells are harming Washington's public resources, especially aquatic habitat.
First, a quick explanation of water law. Under state law, every drop of water belongs to the state, unless owned by the Tribes. To use water you must obtain a permit, called a water right, from the Department of Ecology. The major exception is for permit-exempt wells, i.e., wells that supply rural homes and businesses. The exception states that parties may use 5000 gallons per day of groundwater for household or commercial use, plus water for a half-acre of lawn or garden, plus water for livestock.
Based on this exception, hundreds of thousands of so-called "permit-exempt" wells have been drilled around the state. The Department of Ecology documented the increasing number of wells between 1970 and 2010 in an eye-popping set of maps.
Myth No. 1 is that permit exempt wells use only 1% of the total water use in Washington, and therefore cannot harm streams. In fact, it doesn't matter what total statewide usage is. What does matter is the number of wells in smaller watersheds and their impact on local streams – especially when those streams provide nursery habitat for salmon.
Myth No. 2 is that we know how large the problem is. In fact, we have no idea how much water is used by these hundreds of thousands of unpermitted wells because, unlike city water systems, private well owners are not required to collect or report their usage. And that usage can be very large. For example, in 2011, the Washington Supreme Court ruled that permit-exempt wells may use unlimited quantities of water for livestock, including large feedlots. At issue in that case was a cattle feedlot that was using 600,000 gallons per day.
To suggest that permit-exempt wells involve only small quantities of water and have no impact is wrong. And because there is no permit up front, no metering, and no enforcement after the fact, permit-exempt well owners can use enormous quantities of water, and no one is the wiser.
Myth No. 3 is that pumping groundwater doesn't impact streams. In fact, virtually all groundwater is connected to surface water. Private wells tend to be shallow, because the deeper you drill, the more it costs. Shallow groundwater is usually connected to the nearby stream, and when you pump a permit-exempt well, the water shows up missing in that stream. Denying this is like denying the existence of gravity.
Myth No. 4 is that the Hirst decision is disproportionately harming rural development. The truth is that no one – rural, urban, agricultural or industrial – can get a new water right unless they offer mitigation to prevent impacts to the environment and pre-existing water users. Hirst levels the playing field, putting permit-exempt wells on the same footing as all other water rights: water for water mitigation is now the prevailing rule.
Myth No. 5 is that streams don't need high water flows. The fact is that a good year for water, with adequate snowpack and rain to keep rivers flowing in summer months, creates a good year for fish. Regrettably, that doesn't happen very often, especially with climate change. We must protect high flows in our rivers and streams when they do occur, so that species other than humans can survive and thrive.
The Hirst decision brings Washington water management into the 21st century. Rather than tear it down, the State Legislature should use this opportunity to fix problems such as unlimited water use for animal feedlots and lack of regulations to protect flows in all of Washington's rivers.

VANCOUVER — A growing movement on both sides of the Canada-U.S. border wants to make the restoration of salmon runs in southeast British Columbia a key issue in negotiations over the Columbia River Treaty.
If the runs are revived, salmon would once again spawn in the shadows of the Rocky Mountains where they vanished nearly 70 years ago after the Grand Coulee dam was built in Washington State.
"The dream of salmon restoration is alive and well," said Gerry Nellestijn, who is a member of a citizen group appointed by the B.C. government to provide a "sounding board" for issues related to the Columbia River Treaty.
Mr. Nellestijn said the opportunity to re-establish the runs arises because the treaty, an international agreement governing the management of water in the Columbia River, is up for renegotiation for the first time since it was ratified in 1964.
"A lot of people don't realize what a big opportunity this is. This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to restore our salmon runs," he said.
Salmon were cut off from reaching Canada in the Columbia when the Grand Coulee was completed in 1942.
Canada and the United States began to look at joint management of the Columbia in 1944, but didn't get around to ratifying a treaty until 1964. Under the deal, B.C. built three dams on the upper Columbia to hold back water that is released to control floods and on demand to maximize power generation south of the U.S. border. B.C. was paid $275-million up front and receives entitlement to half of the hydroelectricity generated in the U.S. by the controlled water releases.
Mr. Nellestijn, who is also the co-ordinator of the Salmo Watershed Streamkeepers Society, said the dams have caused widespread environmental damage in B.C., where river and reservoir levels fluctuate wildly.
"Fish weren't an issue when they negotiated the treaty," Mr. Nellestijn said.
He said 40- to 60-pound chinook salmon once spawned in the Salmo River, a tributary of the Columbia in the Kootenays, and other species spawned upstream in tributaries in the Rockies.
John Osborn, a spokesman for the Sierra Club in Spokane, Wash., said the environmental group has written to the two U.S. federal organizations involved in the treaty, urging that "salmon and river health" be made a priority in any negotiations.
Mr. Osborn said restoring salmon runs would require building fish ladders at both the 160-metre high Grand Coulee dam and the 72-metre high Chief Joseph dam, which is located just downstream.
Fisheries experts would also then have to figure out how to reintroduce salmon runs that became locally extinct.
"If we can put a man on the moon we can return salmon to the waters of British Columbia," said Mr. Osborn of the challenge.
In an e-mail Matt Gordon, a spokesman for the B.C. Ministry of Energy, said the provincial government is currently conducting a review of the Columbia River Treaty, as are the two U.S. agencies involved – the Bonneville Power Administration and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
He also said the management of salmon is a federal issue.
A representative of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans was not immediately available for comment.
The U.S. Entity is tasked with preparing recommendations regarding future operations of Columbia River dams with respect to power production, flood control, and as a third new purpose of the Treaty, ecosystem restoration. The Entity recently issued a set of working draft recommendations that are now circulating for public comment, and is expected to issue the next draft on September 6.
The working draft recommendations are being criticized by both conservation groups and the 15 Native American Tribes that live in the Basin. Of particular concern is that the working draft over-emphasizes the status quo for hydropower production and flood control, and does not give co-equal status to environmental restoration and functioning of the Columbia River.
Throughout the multi-year process, the U.S. agencies have repeatedly promised that the final round of technical analysis would inform the public about the trade-offs between different uses of the River. For example, in April 2012 at a Spokane conference, a U.S. Entity spokesman noted that stakeholder comments would be addressed in Iteration 3 of the technical analysis.
Just this month, however, a consortium of 72 Columbia Basin utilities (self-styled the Treaty Power Group) urged the U.S. to "terminate" the Treaty unless an updated Treaty substantially reduces their obligations to share with Canada the surplus energy produced as a result of coordinated operation of Canadian dams (known as the Canadian Entitlement). With former BPA chief Steve Wright moving to general manager of Chelan PUD, the lead entity of the utilities consortium, and former 18-term U.S. Congressman Norm Dicks serving as their lobbyist, the utilities may be exercising substantial influence over the U.S. Entity's decision process.
The technical documents may show that coordinated operations to benefit the Columbia River ecosystem is a viable alternative to the present operational protocols, and could create new incentives for Canada to maintain the Treaty.

Le drapeau de la République de Chypre a été officialisé le  sous les termes des accords de Londres et de Zurich grâce auxquels une ébauche de constitution vu le jour, ainsi que la proclamation d'indépendance de l'État de Chypre.

Ce drapeau représente la carte de l'île placée au-dessus de deux branches d'olivier (symbole de paix) sur un fond blanc. La carte est de couleur cuivre, symbolisant les importants minerais de cuivre présents sur l'île (principalement sous la forme de chalcopyrite, qui est à l'origine du nom de l'île) dont la couleur est jaune.

Conception
La carte de l'île occupe 44 % du drapeau. La couleur de cette carte est jaune-cuivre alors que les branches et les feuilles d'olivier sont vert-olive. Le fond est blanc. La proportion est 3:5.

Les drapeaux produits à Chypre sont souvent différents des détails officiels tant pour la taille de la carte que pour les couleurs. Le gouvernement annonce en octobre 2005 qu'il commencerait à sévir et qu'à terme, seuls des drapeaux conformes aux règles officielles seront produits

Histoire
Avant l'introduction du drapeau de Chypre, les drapeaux de la Grèce et de la Turquie étaient utilisés. Le drapeau actuel est le résultat d'un concours de dessins lancé en 1960. D'après la constitution, le drapeau ne devait pas incorporer les couleurs bleue et rouge (couleurs du drapeau grec et du drapeau turc), ni de croix latine, ni de croissant musulman. Tous les participants ont donc délibérément évité ces quatre éléments pour faire du drapeau un élément « neutre ».

Le dessin gagnant est fondé sur une proposition d'İsmet Güney, un peintre chypriote turc. En turc, le mot Méditerranée se dit "Ak Deniz" (mer Blanche).

Le dessin fut choisi par Makarios III, président de la République, avec l'accord du vice-président Fazıl Küçük.

Usage
D'après la constitution de Chypre, le drapeau peut être déployé par les institutions d'État, les entreprises publiques et les citoyens du pays. Les institutions et les organismes d'État ainsi que les entreprises publiques peuvent arborer le drapeau de Chypre à côté des drapeaux de la Grèce et de la Turquie. Les citoyens peuvent arborer le drapeau de Chypre avec les drapeaux de la Grèce et de la Turquie ou seulement l'un des deux.

Malgré la tentative de ce dessin neutre de célébrer l'unité des deux communautés, le drapeau est le plus souvent utilisé par les chypriotes grecs.

Proposition de drapeau national

D'après les termes du plan Annan, une proposition de l'ONU pour régler le problème chypriote, un nouveau drapeau aurait été adopté pour représenter la République fédérale de Chypre. Contrairement au drapeau actuel, ce drapeau incorporerait consciemment les couleurs représentant la Grèce (bleu) et la Turquie (rouge) ainsi qu'une bande de jaune cuivre pour l'île de Chypre.

Harry Potter: Tom Felton talks about his relationship with Emma Watson
Did Emma Watson and Tom Felton have a relationship on the set of the Harry Potter saga? The actress has never hidden that she had a crush on her colleague, but he had not yet expressed himself on the subject.
Emma Watson had a huge crush on her partner Tom Felton, who played Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter saga. During the first two films, I was very much in love with Tom Felton. He was my first crush. He knows it. We talk about it, it makes us laugh. We're very good friends now, she confided to Seventeen magazine in 2011.
For his part, Tom Felton, had never expressed himself on the subject until now. A journalist from ET Online asked him : We are something, if that makes sense. We've been very close for a long time. I love her. I think she's fantastic. I hope she returns the compliment, he replied. As far as the romance goes, I think it's more of a Slytherin/Gryffindor thing than a Tom/Emma thing. I absolutely think the world of her.

Vet Drives Over An Hour Out Of His Way To Save A Senior Dog's Life
Chris and Mariesa Hughes have always been passionate about dogs – so much so that they began their own rescue called the Mr. Mo Project, which is specifically made to help senior dogs. Being the huge animal lovers that they are, it's no surprise that they have furbabies of their own. And naturally, they only want the best for them, which is why when Mabel, their senior Chihuahua, got very sick, the couple did everything in their power to save her.
IMAGE: SCREENSHOT, @CORNELLVET/FACEBOOK
16-year-old Mabel was adopted by the couple back in 2016. Despite having lots of medical issues in the past, none of it ever slowed down the senior dog, who is very feisty and rules the house. A year years ago, some of Mabel's health problems had caused her to begin experiencing breathing trouble. Chris and Mariesa had taken her to Cornell University Hospital for Animals in Ithaca, where they sought to help her in any way possible.
Mabel underwent many surgeries at that hospital – all of which left her breathing out a hole in her throat. Chris and Mariesa have to constantly monitor her breathing at all times, but they're happy to do whatever they have to keep Mabel safe and healthy.
On one particular Saturday night, Mabel's breathing issues suddenly grew worse out of nowhere. The hole in her trachea had started to collapse, and that's what was making it difficult for her to breathe.
Chris and Mariesa immediately called Cornell University Hospital for Animals, and Dr. Baum informed them that they needed to bring her in as soon as possible. The hospital was a 3-hour drive, so they wasted no time in getting Mabel in the car and began driving for the hospital.
It seemed as though everything was going to be ok, but halfway there Mabel suddenly stopped breathing. The little dog was in bad shape as she was flopping around and her tongue started to turn purple. Chris and Mariesa couldn't give up hope.
Chris began giving Mabel mouth-to-trachea resuscitation until she finally started to breathe again. The couple then rushed her to the nearest vet they could find.
The trio ended up at a small animal clinic, where unfortunately the vet stated that there wasn't much they could do for Mabel long-term. That is when the couple called Dr. Baum once again to discuss what their options were.
Surprisingly, that is when they were told that Dr. Baum was on his way with Dr. Hayes to help Mabel. The two vets drove an hour and a half just to bring Mabel the necessary medical equipment.
Dr. Baum eventually arrived and was able to put Mabel in a portable oxygen tank before driving her back to Ithaca. He ended up being her lifesaver and giving Mabel a chance to keep going.
Both Chris and Mariesa are still blown away by the vet's kind actions to drive so far to help their dog. They can't imagine many vets would, so the gesture is that much more meaningful to them and they know that saying thank you won't ever be enough to cover the gratitude they feel to him.
"A lot of people say 'this is a 16-year-old Chihuahua with major medical issues, why are you doing this?' But I think when you meet her, it's something you understand, her spunk and her attitude and charisma. She wants to be around." Chris said.
As a means of properly saying thank you to Dr. Baum, both Chris and Mariesa have partnered with Cornell University Hospital for Animals to create a compassion award in Dr. Baum's honor. This award has a $2,500 prize, plus it recognizes Dr. Baum's actions as going above and beyond. While what he did was simple kindness, it changed lives and made a difference so that should not be forgotten.
Chris and Mariesa now send regular Mabel updates to Dr. Baum. They want to let him know that little Mabel is still able to live her best life because of him. While she may be a senior dog, she's still got plenty of years ahead of her thanks to all the dedicated people in her life.
Cornell Vet clinician's act of extraordinary compassion saves imperiled chihuahua
When chihuahua Mabel was having difficulty breathing, her owners rushed her to Cornell. Roughly halfway through their journey, however, Mabel lost the ability to breathe completely and began to suffocate. This prompted a Cornell clinician to make an extraordinary decision.https://www.vet.cornell.edu/news/20191125/college-clinicians-act-extraordinary-compassion-saves-imperiled-chihuahua

Illegal alien's remains found behind grocery store cooler 10years after disappearance

Remains found behind grocery store cooler identified as employee missing for 10 years

Larry Murillo-Moncada's parents told police he'd been acting irrationally, possibly because of medication.
Workers removing shelves and coolers from a former No Frills Supermarket in Council Bluffs, Iowa, in January discovered a body behind one of them.
The remains were recently identified as those of Larry Ely Murillo-Moncada, a former employee who had been reported missing November 28, 2009.
Investigators used his parents' DNA to confirm the identity, and the clothes matched the description of his attire at the time he was reported missing, according to Council Bluffs Police Capt. Todd Weddum.
Murillo-Moncada's parents reported their son missing after he became upset and ran out of their home. They told police at the time that he was acting irrationally, possibly because of medication he was taking, Weddum said.
Officers contacted family members, other law enforcement agencies, nearby detention centers and even the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency — he had been deported to Honduras before making his way back to the United States — but received no information regarding his possible whereabouts.
Investigators now believe that Murillo-Moncada went to the supermarket and climbed on top of the coolers. The space was used as storage for merchandise, Weddum said, and employees would sometimes go there to hide when they wanted to take an unofficial break.
He is thought to have fallen into the 18-inch gap between the back of the cooler and a wall, where he became trapped. Noise from the coolers' compressors may have concealed any attempts to call for help, according to Weddum.
An autopsy found no signs of trauma, and the case has been deemed an accidental death.

Not doubting the story but it is surprising that the body wouldn't emit a horrible smell as it rotted.

Our Day Out With Thomas 2013
March 9-10 and 16-17, 2013, Thomas The Tank Engine® will be at the Gold Coast Railroad Museum for the Day Out With Thomas®: The Go Go Thomas Tour 2013. This is a day filled with fun family activities!
On Sunday we had the fantastic opportunity to attend the Day Out With Thomas, The Go Go Thomas Tour 2013 at the Gold Coast Railroad Museum. From the moment we told Mia about going it was all she could talk about. We we got out of the car in the parking lot the excitement increased as soon as she heard Thomas' Toot Toot!
The Gold Coast Rail Road Museum is located in Miami right next to Miami Metro Zoo. There is also the South Florida Military Museum and Vetrans Memorial being built next door.
When we entered the park we followed the red line to meet Thomas for our 12:45 ride. We arrived early so we had plenty of time to get a picture before hand.
As we got to the front of the line there was a ticket taker to punch our tickets. Mia was sure to be the one to hand him our tickets. Our ride on Thomas the Tank Engine was about 25 minutes. The ride took us around the working railroad museum. It was interesting to see all of the train cars and parts in the works. Our daughter enjoyed looking out the windows and hearing the Thomas and Friends theme song.
As the ride was almost complete all of the children on board were presented with their very own Day Out With Thomas Jr. Engineer Certificate...which I'm sure she will save until we take her again next year.
There were so many things to do besides the train ride. There was a scavenger hunt the had a Thomas and Friends prize from MegaBloks, Thomas and Friends stickers and a DVD for the new animated series Mike the Knight. One of the other historic train cars contained a story time. There was also a children's play area sponsored by MegaBloks. The gift shop contained everything Thomas and Friends you can imagine all in ONE place!
The Day Out With Thomas was full of photo opportunities. I'm really disappointed that my camera broke on Friday and is being repaired, but I was still able to take pictures with my iPhone. Besides taking photos with Thomas, Sir Topham Hatt was there too. There was also a train with a cut out perfect for a little Thomas loving face.
Mia also colored on the coloring wall, got temporary Thomas tattoos and bounced away in one of the bounce houses. Miami Metro Zoo had an Animal Exhibit. The live music was perfect entertainment for having lunch in the shade or at one of the many picnic tables. There were multiple food vendors serving everything from pizza to elephant ears (yum! my favorite!). There was even a mini golf course to play.
Our Day Out With Thomas was fantastic. Our daughter really enjoyed it and wants to go back to see Thomas again next year. She even stopped to thank Thomas for her ride (too cute!!).
