McDonald's reveals the ridiculous process of preparing food for commercials
Mike Wehner, Tecca
Technology News Blog June 21, 2012
If you've ever seen a fast food commercial and wondered "Why doesn't my burger/taco/sandwich look like that?" you're not alone. Normally these questions are never answered, but when a customer tweeted to McDonald's Canada, asking why food looks different in ads, the restaurant chain decided to reveal all its secrets.
In the video above you'll get a glimpse into the world of fast food commercial preparation, and it's likely a great deal more complicated than you could ever imagine. For starters, McDonald's has its very own "food stylist" who spends upwards of two hours preparing the ingredients that go into each food item to be filmed — in this case, a quarter pounder with cheese.
Everything from the bun to the condiments is placed specifically to show off the best side of the burger, and the company even uses image manipulation gurus to remove any blemishes that may have occurred during the preparation. Of course, this means you'll never actually score a meal that looks exactly like the one you saw in a TV or magazine ad, but the company insists that all the ingredients in its fast food meals are identical to the ones used in its advertisements.

Ah, poutine. Fried potatoes + cheese curds + gravy = seriously delicious. I encourage you to seek out poutine, wherever you are. However, you won't want to look at this photo before eating poutine because it might make you think twice about ordering it.
So, Corner Burger. Situated amidst a row of swanky boutiques and restaurants, Corner Burger feels less like Park Slope than, say, New Jersey. Memorabilia of various strains line the walls. A TV showing sports bears the onus of the small dining room's centerpiece.
Maybe the place isn't all-that-and-a-plate-of-potatoes, but the food ain't bad.
So, the poutine. Light brown gravy and crisp-enough french fries support gobs of amazing cheese curds. It's salty as hell, but we devoured this in no time.
What about this corner burger? Well, to be honest, I ordered a turkey burger. Total smash. Turkey burgers can be dry, tough, tasteless. None of the above here! It tasted like chicken souvlaki and was as tender as a burger cooked medium. Their big on toppings–and so am I–so I ordered avocado, cheddar, and chipotle mayo between a squishy white seeded bun. Perfection.
If you're aching to walk down Park Slope's 5th Avenue (Beacon's Closet! The Chocolate Room!), stop by Corner Burger for a poutine snack or substantial turkey burger. I hear the onion rings are to die for. Yumm-o.

Saved by a Liver Transplant, Former Soccer Player Looks Forward
Rene Wisely
After a lifetime of struggle, Edwen Lopez faced his biggest challenge: receiving a liver transplant. A Michigan Medicine transplant team was ready to help him win.
Feeling well still feels like a novelty to Edwen R. Lopez Sr.
One year after receiving a liver transplant at the University of Michigan, the 60-year-old says he feels "epic, fluid — solid as granite."
Those emotions resonate during weekly hikes in the San Diego County mountains with his young grandson, Caius. Although he can't run, the result of a 2009 back injury, Lopez relishes the chance to be active again like he was as a soccer player in his youth.
The Chula Vista, California, resident looks better, too. He shed his nickname, Butter — a term that his son, Blake, coined after his father's skin had turned leathery yellow.
The reason: Lopez was diagnosed with stage 4 nonalcoholic steatohepatitis cirrhosis, better known as NASH disease, in 2015.
NASH is characterized by accumulation of fat in the liver, along with inflammation and scarring of the liver, followed by cirrhosis, liver failure and cancer.
Lopez faced all of those issues. When Michigan Medicine surgeon Christopher Sonnenday, M.D., MHS, removed Lopez's liver during the transplantation, the organ was black.
"I don't drink alcohol, so it was from eating too much good Mexican food," says Lopez, a father of four, who jokes his way through every tough situation.
At 6 feet tall, Lopez weighed 260 pounds when he was diagnosed. He dropped 100 pounds before surgery without trying, the result of feeling awful and going in and out of hospitals, eventually every other day, to drain fluids accumulating in his body because of his dying liver.
Lopez felt so ugly, he forbade extended family to visit because of the drastic change in his appearance. Luckily, his old soccer teammates disregarded the rules and surprised him with a visit, rekindling some long-lost friendships that had dissolved because of life's busy speed.
Edwen Lopez's son, Blake, who urged his father to get treatment at U-M.
Joining a new team
Lopez credits his son for saving his life.
The family patriarch moved from California to Ann Arbor, Michigan, to get treatment at the University of Michigan Transplant Center at the urging of Blake, a medical student who graduates from Michigan State University this May.
SEE ALSO: How Does Living Liver Donation Work? 6 Things to Know
The transplant center embraced the elder Lopez, introducing him to a new team of doctors, nurses, students and professors with the same goal: help him live to be around for his family.
Lopez made it on the transplant list on March 23, 2017, a process that would have been harder in California, where five states compete for the same available livers. Michigan, however, is in a region where only three states vie for a liver. The regions are decided by the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network.
"These people were my team of angels," Lopez says. "They were the kindest, most beautiful people that I have ever met. Not a day goes by when I don't reflect back on last year in Michigan.
"I would not be standing here today if my son, Blake, hadn't convinced me to go to Michigan."
A life-changing smile
Lopez cries at the memory of the biggest smile he had ever seen, which transpired just one day after making it on the organ waiting list. A doctor, whose name escapes Lopez, entered his hospital room with a generous smile to ask a question: "Are you ready?"
Hoping it meant what he thought, Lopez began to celebrate with his sister, Arleen Drew, who left her ailing husband in California to be at Lopez's side during his Michigan stay. The doctor followed it with the words the family had been praying for: "We got one."
To receive a transplant liver, the donor's body size and blood type must match the recipient.
"Basically, it's a miracle whenever one is just the right match," says Lopez, who remembers spending the next 12 hours receiving congratulatory hugs from the Michigan Medicine hospital staff, especially all the nurses on his floor.
"They didn't have to do it, but they did — and it's a memory I cherish."
Finding strength and gratitude
The night before the transplant, Lopez found himself reflecting on how he got to this point of his life. It's a natural reaction; the staff warned him repeatedly that he may not survive the surgery.
SEE ALSO: A 'Miracle' Transplant After Acute Liver Failure
Lopez had never been more terrified. And that's saying something.
He grew up with an abusive father. He saw his dreams nearly die when he broke his leg two weeks before graduating from high school, an injury that required four surgeries and cost him a college soccer scholarship. He became a prison guard, witnessing countless acts of violence and death.
And Lopez endured pain for an entire year after the discs in his back broke and surgery failed, causing him to survive on disability. He lost his house, his furniture, his ability to run, and, after filing for disability, his financial footing.
"Everything was for a reason," he says. "It was to make me stronger for this moment."
Before the transplant surgery on March 26, 2017, Lopez found himself praying at 3 a.m., which dissipated his fears. He was ready. And he fell asleep until just before surgery time, when he thought again about where he was in life.
"I noticed how black and blue my body was; it was the realization that I was so close to death because my body wasn't working anymore," Lopez says.
'A second chance at life'
As he was wheeled down the hall on a gurney, Lopez stared up at the white ceiling lights and conjured up images of heaven.
"I knew it was either the end or a rebirth, a second chance at life," he says.
Knowing the outcome he wanted, Lopez fired himself up like the athlete he fancies himself to be. He greeted the dozens of people waiting for him in the surgical suite.
A team was there to take the dying liver out, and a transplant team was there to give him a new one.
A lifelong believer in teamwork on and off the playing field, Lopez immediately felt comfortable.
"I told them after we should have lunch," he says, drawing laughter from the doctors and nurses.
A liver transplant typically takes eight hours but sometimes can take as long as 12 hours. Lopez's was completed in three.
Sonnenday, who is surgical director of the Adult Liver Transplantation Program at Michigan Medicine, recalls everything going to plan.
"When we put in the new liver we wait to see that it's working well, and his started working quickly," Sonnenday says. "Often, you have to wait for that."
Newfound energy after transplant
When Lopez woke up, the experience felt like less than 10 seconds had passed. He asked the nurse, "What's up? When will the surgery begin?" The nurse laughed, explaining that the transplant was complete.
SEE ALSO: Strength in Numbers: Why Organ Donation Matters [Infographic]
"It went in perfectly, and I heard that it was the doctor's quickest, easiest surgery in his transplant history," Lopez says.
And then he felt it. The dressing was hiding what Robert Fontana, M.D., his hepatologist, calls Lopez's "Mercedes hood." His U-shaped scar resembles the luxury car's hood shape.
"I felt good immediately," Lopez says. "I could tell my liver was working."
The patient felt so well that he got off the gurney himself to move to a hospital bed. And then he asked to take a walk. After much resistance, Lopez and a nurse shuffled through the halls, where staffers stopped to offer hugs and high-fives.
It was his victory lap.
Today, Lopez is continuing that victory lap. He was released from the hospital within 10 days and never returned for any hiccups. He now weighs 225 pounds and recently achieved his goal: moving back to California to be with his home team.

Review: Across the Universe
By Bookaholic @BookReflections
Across the Universe is a book I've wanted to read since I started blogging. When I started blogging, this book was everywhere. I must have entered 50 giveaways trying to get this one book. Then I got busy and I never got around to buying it. Enter my eLibrary. Yes!
Series: Across the Universe
Genre: Science Fiction, Dystopia
Pages: 416 (ebook)
Source: eLibrary
Author's Website | Blog | Twitter | Facebook
Buy it: Amazon | Kindle | B&N | Book Depo
Seventeen-year-old Amy joins her parents as frozen cargo aboard the vast spaceship Godspeed and expects to awaken on a new planet, three hundred years in the future. Never could she have known that her frozen slumber would come to an end fifty years too soon and that she would be thrust into the brave new world of a spaceship that lives by its own rules.
Amy quickly realizes that her awakening was no mere computer malfunction. Someone-one of the few thousand inhabitants of the spaceship-tried to kill her. And if Amy doesn't do something soon, her parents will be next.
Now Amy must race to unlock Godspeed's hidden secrets. But out of her list of murder suspects, there's only one who matters: Elder, the future leader of the ship and the love she could never have seen coming.
My Review: Since there has to be 5 million reviews out there about this particular book, don't let me bore you. There's a spaceship going to an unknown planet 200 years away. The really smart people who are needed to start things off on this planet can't for 200 years so they are frozen. Except someone is trying to wake them too soon. Amy is one of those forced awake way too soon. But people don't just awaken, some die. Oh and there is a society inhabiting the ship to, you know, keep things going and populate the new planet.
The premise of this book is so fantastic. There's a million places it could have gone and my mind was reeling with the possibilities. In the end, it went a route I wasn't expecting. Though I imagined more creative directions for this one, I enjoyed the read. I loved the suspense of it all. Not only did I want to know the identity of the murderer, I wanted to know the reason for the alternate reality, and I also wanted to know about this mysterious plague. It was all so exciting. I didn't fall in love with the characters though my heart went out to Amy for her predicament. I thought Elder was a little one dimensional.
I'm not sure how the rest of the series will turn out but I walked away feeling so impressed with Ms. Revis. Sometimes I feel like trilogies are the in thing and we get them rather we need a continuation or not. Here there is enough going on that it doesn't feel stretched out. The questions introduced were answered fully. But there is still a story to tell. I'm looking forward to the rest of this series and the character growth that is sure to come.
P.S. This isn't dystopian. I mean it kind of is...technically. But it isn't. It doesn't have the dystopian vibe. But I'm counting it anyway.

Letter from Isaac Barrow to the Fellows of Trinity College, Cambridge
Pera, Constant[ino]politanae - After an apology for the long delay in writing to the Fellowship, he gives an account of his travels from Paris, with a description of his stay in Florence, prolonged because of the plague in Naples, which was predicted to spread to Rome whither he had planned to go next; heeding the warning that if caught by the plague he would not be able to leave, and it proving too difficult to reach Venice, he embarks on a ship to Constantinople. He describes the present state of affairs under the Grand Vizier, Koprulu Mehmed Pasha, who had come to power two years earlier: his work to restore the Ottoman name at home and abroad, recovering the islands of Tenedos and Lemnos, repelling an attack by the Venetian fleet, suppressing a revolt in Moldavia and Wallachia by removing their princes, repressing the infighting threatening the prestige of the empire, most recently undertaking an expedition to Transylvania on the pretext that Prince Ragotzy, a Turkish subject, had invaded Poland hoping to take the kingdom for himself. Barrow predicts that Christendom will find in the Grand Vizier its worst enemy and describes his punishment of Parthenius, the Patriarch of the Greek Church, who was accused of intrigue with the Duke of Muscovy despite the commonly held view that the accusations were false, and who was hanged and left on display in his Pontifical robes as a deterrent to plotters. Barrow closes with a promise to return to Cambridge within the year.

Printed articles by A. M. Binnie
94 articles on hydrodynamics, most of them offprints, accompanied by a typescript list which has been attached to this catalogue record. Four articles are from the pre-publication stage, but the only one bearing annotations is a corrected copy of an article (item 3, "The flow under gravity of an incompressible and inviscid fluid through a constriction in a horizontal channel" in the Proceedings of the Royal Society, 1937). Another article, an Advance copy, has a photograph of a device for a pipe line laid in loose: item 22, "Protective Air Vessels for Rising Pipe Lines" for The Institution of Mechanical Engineers. One proof is a Confidential report for the Aeronautical Research Committee in 1929 (item 2, "The Influence of Oxygen on Corrosion Fatigue"). Two of the items are represented by the original journal in which they appeared (item 11, Journal of the Institution of Civil Engineers No. 3, 1940-41; and item 17, The Structural Engineer Vol. XX, Number 7, July 1942). One offprint listed on the accompanying typescript list is an article by Binnie, but the item itself is an article from later in the same journal, T. Brooke Benjamin's "Wave formation in laminar flow down an inclined plane" rather than Binnie's "Experiments on the onset of wave formation on a film of water flowing down a vertical plane" in the Journal of Fluid Mechanics, Vol. 2, Part 6, Aug.1957.

Understanding and Adapting to Trade Wars
By Robert Rapier • August 27, 2019 • Stocks to Watch
Regardless of where you stand on Donald Trump's trade war with China (and other countries), I continue to see many misconceptions about what the U.S. is trying to achieve — and the tactics we are using to get there. Below, I will review global trade tensions and what they mean for your portfolio.
Why Conduct a Trade War?
Countries launch trade wars when they conclude that the playing field is unfair. In the case of the U.S. versus China, we have outsourced a lot of manufacturing industries and President Trump's mission is to bring those industries back.
Simple enough, right? However, many people who sympathize with the goal simultaneously don't understand the implications. For better or worse, the reason we trade with other countries is generally because they can provide certain products to us at lower prices.
As an example, consider the steel market. A quick check of steel prices shows that the price of U.S. standard plate steel is $873 (U.S.) per metric ton. Chinese standard plate steel is $466 (U.S.) per metric ton. Ignoring for a moment possible issues of quality or any subsidies either country might offer to these industries, it quickly becomes clear why a manufacturer in the U.S. might opt for Chinese steel.
There are many situations similar to that of steel, which is why a myriad of U.S. industries are vulnerable to tit-for-tat tariffs (see chart).
In fact, despite President Trump's mantra that we must bring U.S. manufacturing home, he has succumbed to the same financial realities as everyone else in his businesses.
Many of the goods Trump has produced and used (e.g., the steel in some of his buildings) have been sourced from overseas despite the availability of the same goods (albeit more expensive), here in the U.S. Here's a tag from the Donald J. Trump Signature Collection:
Meanwhile, Trump's daughter Ivanka operates a line of branded clothing and shoes that are made by low-wage workers in China, Bangladesh, and other developing countries.
The point here is not to raise the matter of hypocrisy, but rather to highlight the powerful economic incentives to buy goods and services from China. They are cheap, which allows us to spend less money on goods.
Open and free trade has driven down the cost we pay for many of the products we buy, which ultimately allows us to have more discretionary income to buy other products.
Trade wars result in tariffs on those imported goods, which should serve to make American-made goods more cost-competitive. But the end result, whether you pay for imported goods or shift to American-made goods, is that you pay more.
That's the downside of trade wars.
What is the cost to consumers? JPMorgan Chase (NYSE: JPM) has estimated that the tariffs that have already been imposed will cost the average American household $600 per year. If President Trump carries out on his recent on again, off again Twitter threat to impose another $300 billion on tariffs on Chinese goods, that will rise to a cost of $1,000 per year. And in his latest Twitter proclamation, Trump has announced that he intends to go even further and raise the previously announced 10% tariff on $300 billion in goods to 15%.
These trade threat have tremendously rattled the financial markets and directly resulted in multiple steep sell-offs. Investors have been especially spooked by the inconsistent manner in which these tariffs have been announced, rescinded, and then increased. The markets do not like that kind of instability.
Further, the more these tariffs cost American consumers, the more pressure it puts on the economy. U.S farmers have been devastated by losing their exports to China, notably soybeans, as China has been unwilling to roll over on this issue.
The reality is that this is all dearly costing the U.S. economy, while holding out the promise that it will eventually revitalize U.S. manufacturing.
The Argument Against Trade Wars
I certainly agree that some U.S. industries are critical and strategic and we should never outsource them. We should also never become overly reliant on a single source for any of our goods.
On the other hand, for industries in which there are multiple countries that can all make goods cheaper than we can, it may be better to import those goods. We can focus on goods and services in which we have a competitive advantage. A country isn't "stealing" from us if they sell us a cheaper good. They are providing us the good, and we are providing them money. (Theft of intellectual property is a different, although related issue.)
One could make an argument for protecting more industries if the U.S. unemployment rate was high. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 2009, the year President Obama took office — and in the wake of a serious recession — the monthly unemployment rate peaked at 10%. After that, the rate fell each year, reaching 4.7% in 2016, his last year in office.
Source: Bureau of Labor Statistics
The rate continued to trend down following Trump's inauguration in 2017, but it was on a clear trajectory to historic lows. The U.S. workforce was already nearly fully employed, so it's hard to argue that a trade war was needed on the basis of the economy.
But it is true that the nature of U.S. employment has changed over time. We just need to determine which manufacturing industries are critical to national security, and which aren't. The current trade war seems unfocused, and much of it seems entirely unnecessary given the historic lows for U.S. employment.
How it Affects You
Whether or not you think this trade war is a good idea, it is likely impacting your portfolio. Further, it isn't likely to be fully resolved soon. The best way to distance yourself from trade war-induced volatility is with investments that aren't dependent on foreign goods for their businesses.
Some of those are the fixed income investments I have written about recently. Equities in this category include health care stocks and regulated utilities.
Regardless of how you adjust in anticipation of a protracted trade war, just remember that this issue is temporary. If you have a long-term game plan, just keep executing that plan.

It's hard to imagine anyone better suited to covering the energy-investment waterfront than Robert Rapier.
Robert is no armchair analyst—he has two decades of in-the-trenches experience in a wide range of fossil fuel and biofuel technologies, including refining, natural gas production, gas-to-liquids, ethanol production and butanol production.
During a six-year stretch at ConocoPhillips, Robert ran a team of engineers in Scotland working on oil and gas projects in the North Sea.
For two years, Robert was an efficiency expert in a Texas petrochemical plant. The process changes he implemented saved the facility $9 million a year. He later worked as the Engineering Director for a Dutch environmental-technology company and provided engineering support for a Chinese facility the company was constructing.
Robert was also a butanol engineer in Germany for the Celanese Corporation, where he designed a novel butanol unit that cut production costs by $5 million per year.
In all, Robert has spent more than a dozen years working on liquid fuels technologies. Along the way he's picked up five patents, including one for a breakthrough way to convert ethane into ethylene (U.S. Patent 7,074,977).
Now, in addition to guiding readers to timely energy plays in Utility Forecaster, Robert travels the world evaluating startup energy companies for deep-pocketed investors. After grilling management and assessing the technology on-site, he makes a go/no-go investment decision. His wealthy private investors and hedge fund backers trust him to make the right choice for the same reason we do: his vast real-world experience in just about every facet of the energy industry. If Robert votes thumbs-up, millions of dollars flow into these cutting-edge outfits.
Robert earned his master of science in chemical engineering and a bachelor of science in chemistry and mathematics (double major) at Texas A&M University. He tells us he was "this close" to finishing his Ph.D. before he decided he was having a lot more fun making money in energy stocks.
A prolific writer, Robert's articles have appeared in Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post and the Christian Science Monitor -- and he has been a featured expert on 60 Minutes and The History Channel. His new book, Power Plays: Energy Options in the Age of Peak Oil (Apress, 2012), helps investors sort through doom and gloom, hype and misinformation to understand the true costs, benefits and trade-offs for each of our major energy options.
In what little spare time he has left, Robert consults for a number of energy projects, including biodiesel, ethanol, butanol and biomass gasification facilities.

4. Eddie Holland: "It Moves Me"
05 Monday Oct 2009
Posted by The Nixon Administration in Eddie Holland, Writing credit: Berry Gordy
Tamla T 102 (B), February 1959
B-side of Merry-Go-Round
(Written by Berry Gordy – but see "Comments" below)
Infuriatingly, the liner notes to The Complete Motown Singles: Volume 1 set don't inform us who provided the backing vocals which hold this swinging mid-tempo R&B number together (in fact, they don't make any comment about this song at all), meaning I can't say for sure whether Eddie is having a vocal duel with his brother Brian here.
Nonetheless, it's the contrast between Eddie's own fine voice and the deep, reverberating backing vocals which really make this one work. It's basically Eddie singing over the top of a jazz-tinged rhythm bed and the backing singers providing a hook in place of a chorus ("oooooh, it moves me"). The drums, guitar and bass work are all markedly better on this B-side than on any of the three sides previously discussed, and the whole thing is probably a better all-round record than the A-side, although it's less charming and Eddie's given less to do.

The record states Vocal Accompanyment, rather than VA with Raeber Voices. That's a twist. Another is it was published by Bengal Music, rather than Jobete. Sounds like there's some outsiders involved, but for a B side??? Looks like three authors, Berry, a sister, and someone else, can't make it out…not Robinson.
Johnny Giffin said:
"It Moves Me" was written by B. Gordy, R. Davis and G. Gordy. R. Davis is Billy "Roquel" Davis and the G. Gordy is Berry's sister Gwen. These two along with another Gordy sister Anna were the founders of Anna Records also formed in Detroit in 1959. It's interesting to note that in Volume 1 of The Complete Motown Singles only Berry Gordy gets the writing credit for this song.
Near as I've been able to find out, Bengal Music was Berry Gordy's personal publishing company before Jobete Music. Ro-Gor music was Billy Davis' and Gwen Gordy's joint ownership. Fidelity Music was Gwen's, Billy's and Berry's jointly. Maybe Bengal Music was Berry's, together with his parents and all the sisters and brothers ($800.00 he borrowed from them to start Tamla)? So, then, he started Jobete Music, for himself, alone.
So, with Gwen and Billy as his co-writers on "It Moves Me", the publisher should have been Fidelity Music. Maybe when Gwen bought Billy out of Anna Records, when he left to join Chess Records, that song was part of the buyout, and Berry paid Billy and Gwen for their share, and the publishing reverted to him alone (Bengal Music)?
I have to disagree with this verdict. I would give this song an 8. Up until this point this B-side is the best single that I have heard from Motown. If I were alive in '59 this song would have gotten me on the dancefloor = )

Damecia seems to have "pre" read my mind in that she said in 2012 exactly what I'm thinking now in 2020. I'm now going through the Complete Motown Singles, Volume 1, and so far this is one of the best. Marv Johnson's "Whisper" is no. 1 and "It Moves Me" is no. 2.
"It Moves Me" has a great Sun Records-era Elvis Presley sound to it. The BVs sound like a Detroit version of the Jordanaires. Just really a fun Rock 'n' Roll record all around.
Now that you have gone back to Motown's beginning to review its early songs, using "The Complete Motown Singles, Volume 1" as a guide, did you also listen to Wade Jones' "Insane"/"I Can't Concentrate" Released on RayBer Records 1001 in early 1959, but recorded in fall 1958, well before Marv Johnson's "Come to Me"? If not, you can find this website's review of it as the first entry in the "Master Index" section. And you can find MP4 videos of its two songs on You-Tube, for listening. I'd be very curious to read what you think of them. Also, please tell me what your member name is on Soulful Detroit. If you don't want that to appear on this website, please send me a PM on Soulful Detroit Forum.
I haven't listened yet to the Wade Jones single but I definitely will after work tonight and bring the thoughts back here.
This whole Early Motown "journey" has been great. I bought all the Complete Motown sets up to 1969 but for some reason, I never really listened to the first 2 volumes.
On Soulful D, I'm WaitingWatchingLookingForAChance in honor of "My Girls", The Marvelettes.
Ricky said:
To me this is not better than the b-side but the song is really interesting. Eddie Holland voice is heavenly (good example: Take a Chance on Me), and this rocker fits his voice. I just can't get into it. Don't know why. Verdict earned.
I agree with the "5" rating. I don't really like this song, much. It's a standard R&R song of its time. Nothing stands out at all. It's a disappointment considering what Motown could produce in 1959.
It's so interesting how nothing in music is necessarily universal- one person's junk is another's treasure. I really like this one because it has an Elvis rock n roll sound to me, which was unexpected BUT I also like a Miracles song which has to be one of the oddest I've ever heard, "I Need A Change". I'd love to know what others make of that one.
I like "I Need A Change" very much. It's a great mid-tempo all sweet song written and sung by Smokey. There were VERY few early Motown, Tamla, and Miracle cuts I didn't like. "It Moves Me", "It", "Don't Say Bye, Bye", "Custer's Last Man", and "Poor Sam Jones" were the only songs they released on 45 up through mid 1961, that I didn't like, except, perhaps, "A New Girl" by Debbie Dean. So, actually, by that time. I had decided to buy every Motown and Berry-Gordy related record, and look carefully at, and try to get a listen from every Detroit-produced R&B and what now is called "early Soul" record. There were literally hundreds of R&B songs like "It Moves Me" out between 1958 and 1960. And, not only were none of them MY style, but moreover, I liked perhaps more than half of those others better than Eddie Holland's. I loved almost ALL of Eddie's other Motown-produced cuts much, much, much better than this one. I'd much rather hear him sing sweet songs, and imitate Jackie Wilson than hear him wasted on a run-of-the mill R&R song. Now, if it had had a super guitar solo in its break, like that of G.L. Crockett's "Look Out Mabel", maybe I'd think differently, and award it a perfect 10!

Asmir Begovic didn't start his adventure at Chelsea very well, collecting four goals in 45 minutes in awful second half the Blues played against NY Red Bulls.
The Bosnian goalkeeper, that the Blues just signed from Stoke City to replace Petr Cech, did a bunch of mistakes in two of the four goals, and his reactions didn't seem so sharp on the Americans' shots.
"He was very tired, the same as Courtois. When the goalkeepers are very tired the coordination is low, the agility doesn't exist, and the speed of reaction doesn't exist. Courtois made a mistake in the first half with the ball at his feet.
"Begovic in the second half was not sharp in his reactions but it's a consequence of being tired from training. I'm so happy to have him and in the next game against PSG he will start. He will play the first half. There's no problem, it's just a process".

6 Intriguing Things You May Not Know About Tarot
Sep 7, 2022 6:32 PM EDT
The tarot holds many mysteries.
Glegle/Pixabay
Tarot Myths and Misconceptions
Tarot cards have long been associated with fortune-telling, phony storefront psychics, and rip-off artists who take advantage of vulnerable people. This is part of what gives tarot a bad rap. However, most people are unaware that tarot has many more important uses other than mere fortune-telling. In fact, tarot cards don't have anything to do with fortune-telling. Fortune-telling implies that the future is set in stone and cannot be changed.
However, when you use tarot as a tool for self-reflection, you are guided to the best course of action in any situation. But the choice is always yours. The future is always changing, and you have the power to make different choices at any time.
Working with tarot cards can help you discover your true self. The cards can give you deep insight about yourself and your personal situation. This is possible because the cards always reflect your subjective experience.
There are many myths and misconceptions regarding the use of tarot cards; including the origins of the tarot cards. One of the most popular myths about the origins of the tarot cards is their association with the Romany.
Some other popular misconceptions in tarot concern the imagery and symbolism on the tarot cards. Many people are confused and mislead by tarot imagery and symbolism. Some of the images on tarot cards can seem intimidating, shocking, and even disturbing. This is because the meanings of the images are taken literally. For instance, the Death Card is seen as meaning the literal death of a person.
In truth, the cards simply represent different aspects of the human psyche and human experience. There are no "good" or "evil" tarot cards. They simply represent different aspects of your subjective experience.
1. Tarot Symbols Are Often Misunderstood
One of the most misunderstood symbols in tarot is the suit of pentacles. Most people commonly and mistakenly believe the pentacle is a symbol of evil.
But did you know that the pentacle used to be a symbol of the Catholic church?
The adoption of the pentacle as a symbol of evil is a relatively modern concept, dating back only to about the latter part of the 20th century. (Yikes! Does this mean the members of Motley Crue are good Christians?!)
In the 19th century, Roman Catholic Priest Eliphas Levi was the first to adapt the inverted pentagram as a symbol of "evil". This was most likely due to misinterpretation of symbols. It later became associated with evil, and subsequently rejected by Christianity in the 20th century.
One of the possible reasons for the misinterpretation of the symbol could be that the pentacles or coins as they are known is some decks represent material wealth and abundance. Material wealth is usually seen as being selfish and sometimes even sinful in some Christian religions. In its extreme form followers are told to renounce all material goods in favor of the spiritual.
Some ardent followers will even point to passages in the Bible as "proof" that material wealth is sinful and against God.
For example, Matthew 19:24 "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God".
This passage, like many others, are often misinterpreted. It is taken literally to mean you are being sinful if you have material goods and will not be able to enter Heaven.
In truth it refers to a needle-eye gate which was one of many gates into the walled city of Jerusalem. Not a sewing needle, as some might envision it. (It would be really hard for a camel to go through the eye of a sewing needle!).
Since the gates were very narrow, camels had to unload their baggage before being able to enter. The passage is simply saying it might be very difficult for people with a lot of wealth to be humble enough to let go of their worldly possessions and acknowledge that all their material wealth is spiritual in nature and comes from the grace of God.
This is in fact exactly what is depicted in the suit of pentacles in a tarot deck. In tarot, material wealth is depicted as being a gift from God.
Material wealth is a gift from God.

2. Tarot Cards Can Be Used for Self-Discovery
Some mental health professionals are now using tarot cards in their practice to uncover subconscious material with their clients.
Traditional methods of uncovering subconscious material are the Rorschach (inkblot test) and TAT (thematic apperception test). With these traditional test models, the client projects his/her subconscious material onto the picture or inkblot presented. And the picture/inkblot only has the meaning that is projected onto them by the client.
The difference with using tarot cards as a projective technique, is that tarot cards have their own 'meaningfulness' emanating from their own side. Each tarot card represents a different aspect of the human psyche. The cards that show up in a reading will always mirror the client's subjective experience.
You might be questioning whether the cards are random or not. This is a common question. Aren't we just picking any card at random?
We are not just picking any card at random. Tarot card are spiritual in nature and require trust in Higher Consciousness. Therefore, it is considered 'sacred' or 'empowered' randomness.
You cannot pick the wrong cards. The law of attraction always ensures that you will pick the cards most relevant to your situation.
In other words, you are subconsciously choosing the right cards for your situation. And the cards you pick will always reflect your subjective experience.

3. There Are Differing Opinions on the Origins of Tarot
The origins of the tarot cards are a mystery.
Most historians have traced the origins of tarot cards to the 14th -15th century Italy. It is believed that artist Bonifacio Bembo hand painted a set of overly large beautifully decorated cards for the Visconti family of Milan.
The cards were unnamed and unnumbered. Originally the cards were used for an Italian game called 'Tarocchi'. It was later called 'Trionfi', which in English means 'trumps'. The traditional tarot deck has 22 trump cards.
Tarot cards did not originate with the Romany. The cards may have become associated with the Romany because the Romany appeared in Europe around the same time that the cards were introduced. It's possible that the Romany came across the cards in their travels and may have used them at some point.
They did not bring the cards with them from Egypt as some believe. This may be how they first became associated with tarot. However, historians claim that no connection to the Romany has ever been found. It wasn't until the 19th century that the Romany began using tarot cards.
In contrast, there are some historians who believe the origin of tarot cards go much further back than the 14th or 15th century. Perhaps even thousands of years. They attribute this to the fact that many of the tarot cards depict Egyptian symbolism.
In fact, Samuel Roberts, author of The Gypsies, claims that there is proof that tarot cards originated in Egypt due to the religious symbolism on the cards. There are even some claims that tarot cards are buried in the pyramids.
Allegedly, there are 78 movable gold plates with tarot symbolism engraved on them. The symbolism depicts images of man and his relationship with the universe. Images that are remarkably like tarot symbolism.
Tarot cards are not about fortune telling.

4. The Fool or the Joker: Which Came First?
Perhaps the Fool is not such a fool. After all, the Fool is the only one of the 78 tarot cards who found a way to live on as a Joker in a regular (standard) deck of playing cards. According to some historians on the subject, anyways.
However, there is some controversy as to which came first—a regular standard deck of playing cards or tarot cards?
One school of thought contends that the Fool is the ancestor of the Joker and that Joker cards started appearing around 1860. Some depicted clowns and jesters, which are similar to the Fool card in tarot. The Joker was introduced as a wild card during the Civil War in the United States.
Other historians claim that standard playing cards originated in China, and might have been invented during the Tang Dynasty in the 9th century AD.
This of course would make the standard playing cards much older than tarot cards. Which would mean the Fool descended from the Joker, rather than the other way around.
So, again. Who came first, the Joker or the Fool?
Either way, it looks like the Fool and Joker cards stand out in a unique way from the other cards.

5. Court Cards Have Been Linked to Personality Traits
There are 16 Court cards in a traditional tarot card deck. In tarot card readings, these 16 Court cards represent people involved in the situation, or someone that is significantly impacting your life in some way. Or they can represent your own qualities.
Interestingly, the 16 Court cards also correlate to the 16 personality types described in the Myers-Brigg Type Indicator personality test (MBTI). The Myers-Brigg is a test given by psychologists to determine personality type. You can take the test yourself here.
The 16 Court cards depict all the different personality types described in the Myers-Brigg Type Indicator. Each personality type is represented by one of the tarot Court cards.
The MBTI measures personality traits such as extroversion/introversion, intuition/sensation, thinking/feeling, and judging/perceiving.
These traits correspond precisely to the four suits in tarot:
Wands = Intuition
Cups = Feeling
Swords = Thinking
Pentacles = Sensation
As an example, the Knight of Swords would represent an extroverted personality type. The Page of Cups would represent someone with an introverted personality.
This is another tool that can be used by psychotherapists with their clients.
One way to work with the court cards is to have the client pick out the Court card they are attracted to. Again, this has a lot to do with the law of attraction. The client is attracted to the card that will teach them something about themselves.
This can work in one of two ways. One is the card that is chosen can represent qualities and traits that the client possesses. The therapist can then discuss with the client how the personality traits relate to them.
The other way this tool works is that the client may chose a card with traits and qualities that are opposite of their own personality. This is their shadow side, which represents the parts of themselves that they have disowned.
Discussing with the client the parts of their personality that they have disowned can help bring the client to wholeness. Integrating outer personality traits with hidden disowned parts of oneself leads to wholeness.
We must own all parts of ourselves to be whole and complete. In this way, the tarot cards can be of great assistance on the path to wholeness.

6. Experiments Using the Tarot: The Law of Attraction vs. Randomness
Jungian psychologist, Dr. Arthur Rosengarten and colleagues conducted an experiment with tarot cards to discover whether the cards were being picked at random or not.
They chose the subject of domestic violence to conduct the experiment. 13 male perpetrators and 13 female victims were chosen for the experiment. The participants were not couples, and they were chosen at random.
It was acknowledged that the experiment was a bit unorthodox and most likely could not be measured on an empirical scientific basis. It also was not a large sample.
Despite these observations, they discovered what they consider to be significant findings.
Out of 156 possibilities (including reversed cards), certain cards kept showing up repeatedly for each group in the study. Not only did the same cards show up, they were also in the same card positions.
The intention of this study was to discover if the tarot could reveal certain meaningful underlying group trends that are consistent in the personalities of perpetrators and victims.
Some of the significant findings in the abused women's group were the Knights card, which appeared five times in the 'obstacle' position (twice in pentacles, twice in wands, and once in cups).
The Eight of Swords appeared five times total, including twice in 'future effect.'
For the male offender group, the Seven of Wands appeared five times in the 'outcome' position, and was in the Reversed position three of those times.
The King of Cups appeared four times in the 'past effect' position. The Hermit card appeared three times in 'present situation,' one time in 'past cause,' and one time in 'foundation' positions.
Could it be just a coincidence that these same cards kept showing up in the same positions? Or is the law of attraction at work here?
Since the tarot cards are spiritual in nature, perhaps there is a Higher Order at work here. What do you think about this? Is it just coincidence or the law of attraction?

A YIMBY Action Endorsement Questionnaire. View all November 2018 Questionnaires.
SFUSD owns a good deal of land in San Francisco. A distressing amount of this land is surface parking lots. Do you think this is a good use of this land? Would building housing on these lots be a better use? How important is this issue to you?
San Francisco has nearly 900,000 people. Each year, there are 8,000 – 9,000 newborns in the City. Our population growth is rapid. According to the ACS of the Census Data, there are ~388K units in the City in 2017, vs ~373K units in 2010, that's a lesthalgic 3.8% growth over 8 years. At the same time, the City's population has grown from ~805K to ~884K, that's roughly +9%. This means, the growth of our housing supply is half of the population growth. One could also derive that rent would double if not more over this time. This contrast is alarming. We must increase housing availability to reduce shortage.
The surveys also estimates that each unit houses ~2.3 people. With the population growth from newborns and new workforce, we need to build >5,000 more units EACH YEAR to maintain this excessive rental price from rocketing higher!
According to YIMBY Actions, 75% of the City outlaws high density. Regulations like HomeSF are reasonable ways to gradually increase housing along the traffic corridors while respect the characteristics of the neighborhood, Also as what's practical, we have to build infill housing as interim solutions, such as housing over parking, ADUs, educator housing over schools, are all creative ways.
As an immigrant from Guangzhou, China, I think we can borrow the mix-zoning practices in my hometown. We have underground public transit, ground-level shopping, mid-level offices, and high-level housing. You could live/work/eat in the building.
More and more students attending our public schools suffer from homelessness. What do you believe the school district should do to address this problem?
SFUSD should do its share in helping to fight housing crisis, such as maximizing the utilization of SFUSD vacant property by developing mixed use constructions at unused school sites for both the school district and educator housing – build teacher housing on top of a school on district vacant land. I think one reason that SFUSD hesitate to build on its vacant land is the anticipation of future needs to build more schools. If we can build educator housing on top of a school, then we can get around the dilemma.
Also some part of the housing that the school district builds or owns, could also be used to house students in transition, homeless or underhoused students and their families. The housing model at the Buena Vista Horace Mann school is good in providing temporarily overnight shelters for school families.
More and more teachers struggle with the cost of housing. What do you believe the school district should do to address this problem?
First, we should prioritize allocation of the citywide affordable housing boom for educators. In the past year alone, we saw over 7,000 housing units became available from the construction pipeline and of those, over 50% are permanently affordable. We should reserve a large portion of those units for educator housing. However, that cannot be done because giving housing preference by occupation is currently prohibited by the Federal Fair Housing Act. As a board member, I will work with my endorser Senator Scott Wiener and other electeds to ensure exceptions can be made to accommodate educators in the City.
Second, I would propose mixed use zoning for every school site, and allow educator housing to be built on top of a school.
Third, I would develop programs to incentivize small property owners to bring forward homeownership opportunities for educators within existing and in new housing stocks, and allow property owners to offer tenants to become homeowners in place – by letting long time tenants to have first rights of refusal to purchase the unit they live in when the building is put up for sale. We could be doing this in coordination with City's Down-payment Assistance Program and the Teachers Next Door Down-payment Assistance Program.
Last, we should also make sure that the City and the Supervisors demand an adequate share of Community Benefits for BMR (Below Market Rate homeownership and rental housing) upon construction of new housing.
Getting children to and from public schools is a problem for many parents. A major finding from the SF CTA Child Transportation Study was that "most parents drive their children to school and afterschool programs." Do you see this as a problem? What solutions do you think the school district could pursue to address this? Please feel free to discuss school busses, shuttles, protected bike lanes, etc.
Just like the Democratic Party's advocacy on building healthy, livable, and sustainable communities, we should focus on urban planning that centers around a variety housing options, and make it possible for families to walk, bike and take public transportation to schools. It should also incorporate open space, recreation as well as fitness areas for all residents to enjoy.
However, the root cause is to work out the bugs in school assignment, and make sure small children can access schools near their home or their caretakers' workplaces. For middle schools, feeder patterns should be better implemented and ensure students from a few surrounding elementary schools can be fed into a middle school in the vicinity to achieve diversity and accessibility. I would also advocate for a predictable high school assignment system so that older kids can take public transportation or bike to school.
Busing has been cut due to budget, and it isn't popular for many families for the limited access to their children in case of emergency. Before the assignment system can be improved, we can look at solutions like Kangaroos, a smart phone based shuttles for dedicated carpools for kids, as well as adding protected bike lanes and other ways to ensure children's safety.
As a School Board member, I will prioritize streamlining the assignment system in order to reduce the school needs on transportation, the stress that the commute brought to the families, and the impact on the environment.
YIMBYs care deeply about integration and healing the wounds of redlining and exclusionary zoning. These policies deliberately result in segregated schools. SFUSD has a lottery assignment system designed to fix this segregation problem in our housing, but it has not resulted in vastly more integrated schools. What do you see as solutions to this complex problem?
SFUSD had tried both neighborhood schools & full lottery models, and neither was a full success. It has now rested in a compromise in which neighborhood assignment for elementary schools, and the feeder pattern for the middle schools – where a few nearby neighborhood schools are fed into a middle school to achieve diversity.
Full lottery assignment offers the promise of diversity. But when it was tried, it was met with a massive uproar from the parent community. Families want predictability and minimum commute, which neighborhood schools provide. Families leaving SFUSD, but not necessarily the City, has resulted in SF having the largest number of private & parochial school per capita in U.S.. About half of SF's school age students are in private and parochial schools.
Our City is neighborhood oriented. SF's minorities are made up of Asian-33%, Hispanics-12% and African Americans-6%. Most fight to stay in the neighborhoods they have built – Chinatown, Japantown, Latino Culture District, Fillmore… Neighborhoods predetermine the makeup in the schools within.
The 2010 reform of school assignment brought diversity within neighborhood schools. As an advocate in the 2010 Neighborhood Kindergarten Assignment and the Middle School Feeder Pattern, I'm proud to help bring diversity and predictability to the school assignment.
Yet, the best way is to improve the performance of EVERY school, so that families of all backgrounds have no hesitation to send children to any school.
There are serious geographic equity issues with our schools. Additionally, as some districts are growing their housing supply, adding more and more children, the lack of quality schools everywhere is becoming an increasingly urgent issue. How do you plan on addressing the issue of access to quality schools in every district and opening more schools?
First, we must improve the quality and offering in every neighborhood schools – there are schools in the Southern & Eastern corridors that are under enrolled. Families living nearby rather commute to the West/North side, and create overcrowding in the Western/Northern side schools. We must provide additional training and support to these schools first.
Second, in areas where new development are anticipated, like at SOMA, Mission Bay, we must anticipate the needs to build school and add them to the district General Plan accordingly. There is only one major high school in the NE part of the City – Galileo High, but John Burton High, John O'Connor High, Thurgood High are all miles away in the SE part of the City, leaving families from Chinatown to SOMA to Dog Patch with little options except charter, private or parochial schools.
We must build schools in the District vacant/under-utilized lands, in addition to create SFUSD real estate plan for future growth.
Is there anything else you think our members should know about your candidacy? Links, references, endorsements, etc?
I'm a member & the only true YIMBY in the line up. I have been working with Sonja, Laura, Bobak and many members as early as 2015. I have personally gone to City Hall & testified on YIMBY causes. I have organized over 100 community members to support YIMBY's rally in 2017 on the affordable housing rate.
I have organized two dozen people to testify for a renter-turned-homeowner. He wanted to add a "pop-top" living space, within the zoning requirement, on top of his building to accommodate a growing family. But his plan was blocked by the next door neighbor whose building has more floors. The DR got appealed to the BOS, and our collective testimonies helped this first-time homeowner secured his housing needs.
Because of my track record on pro-housing work and also able to the respect of neighborhood characteristic, I am endorsed by State Senator Wiener, Asseblymember Chiu, Mayor Breed, Supervisor Tang, and among others, who advocate for YIMBY's causes.
Want to vote on our future endorsements?

Q: Conflicting memory ranges on Windows 98 SE for video card My card is a ATI Radeon 9550 and my computer is a Dell Dimension 4600 with a 2.4 Ghz Pentium 4. I have seen forum posts about this before but they just say "that computer is not designed for Win 98" but I am more interested in why I get memory and i/o conflicts causing my video driver not to work.
I have also tried the GeForce MX2 that came in this computer with the same results.

A: This is going way, way back but it appears as though the computer isn't truly plug-n-play compliant. That might be what they mean by "doesn't support Windows 98". There should be some settings in the BIOS of the computer that will let you reserve blocks at C0000-CCFFF for non-plug-n-play devices. You will have to play with it.

This was written for our old website by Simon
My name is Simon Purbrick and I am deaf and I have been a member of the club since June 1990.
I am a railway enthusiast and one of my main jobs of helping run the club is organising day trips to preserved railways. I'm interested in how railways try and make things easier for disabled people, like level access, disabled toilets, access to trains via a ramp and the way staff help them.
Many of the railways try and preserve the past and in the old days there was less things to help disabled people. There were no toilets, no special carriages (expect for brake coaches) and no lifts at main stations.
Now most preserved railways have level access, disabled toilets, ramps and the most important thing for disabled people to travel and enjoy is specially designed coaches with ramps or lifts fitted.
We have been to the Swanage Railway (twice), Isle of Wight Steam Railway (twice) and Didcot Railway Centre (once). During one of the Phab holidays in Wales, a group went to the Gwili Railway.
The first day trip was in March 1991 when we went to the Swanage Railway, at the time of our visit the Swanage Railway was suffering from financial problems and they were in the brink of closing by Easter 1991. The return ride was for six miles from Swanage to Harman's Cross and back, which at the time was the limit of the line. We used their disabled coach, which was re-built from an Mk 1 coach with wide doors and a disabled toilet inside the coach. We all loved the coach very much as it had lots of room and had chairs, which can be moved around in the coach.

In July 1992 we went with Hounslow Phab to the Isle of Wight for the day. Once we had some food, we all went on the Island Line train (old 1938 tube stock) from Ryde Esplanade to Smallbrook Junction to change into one of the Isle of Wight Steam Railway's steam trains. We had a return ride of ten miles from Smallbrook Junction to Wootton and back, stopping at Haven Street for a break. We were not happy about their ramps as it was too steep and at one time when we were pushing one of our members into the brake coach, his chair nearly came off the ramp. As a member of the railway I wrote with the help of a friend to the Chairman of the railway and the Editor of the railway's home magazine with our comments. Our letter appeared in the magazine and both the Chairman and Editor said that the only problem is that the railway preserves the Island's railway history as it used to be in steam days. They said that the railway had a plan to restore one of the grounded coach bodies as a special coach
for disabled people and families with pushchairs. (The coach is now fully restored, but delayed putting it into service because of red tape from the Department of Transport but they hope to solve it this year and it can go into service on the railway)

In July 1994 we went to Didcot Railway Centre, which is locally about 10 to 15 miles south from Oxford to their special disabled steaming. Didcot is a problem once you get there, as there is a fight of steps from the end of the station subway up to the disused railway yard. Once in the Railway Centre there are level access to most areas with paths and a disabled toilet.
In the past they used the crossing from the Parkway car park, but due to safety reasons they weren't allowed to use it again. For this special day to allow more disabled people to visit Didcot, the Great Western Society (GWS) who run the Railway Centre used a Thames Trains Turbo DMU, which was crewed by Thames Trains staff. They had to get special permission from Railtrack for the shuttles to be run on busy lines. The Turbo ran special free shuttles from Didcot Parkway Station, ran up the main line towards Reading for a mile before stopping. Then the driver changed ends and rang the Slough signalman to change the points and unlock the Railway Centre's main line connection.
We went from the fast lines via the slow lines then into the point that goes into the Railway Centre, which we had to go slowly through the gates then into the Railway Centre's main demo line. We then stopped while the GWS staff changed the points and once done the DMU slowly arrived into the platform. Everyone got off and spent 4 hours looking at the steam engines in the shed, had a short ride on the branch line, looked around the Centre. The DMU had a break in one of the shed roads so the GWS could run their steam train on the demo line. After about two hours later the DMU started doing the shuttles again, taking the disabled people back to the Parkway Station. I managed to have a ride in the cab as the door was open and the driver was kind enough to allow me to have a look while the DMU was on the move.
Since then there has been no special disabled steamings, mostly because it has been quite difficult to put another shuttle on the main line as it would of course delay other trains without special permission. The GWS also does not have a Safety Case to run it. Last year there has been good news, the GWS has plans to replace the subway steps with a new ramp after it leased extra railway land, in which they hope to buy together with the main site which is also leased.

In August 1996 we went again to the Isle of Wight Steam Railway, we used the same coach as in 1992, but with a slightly improved ramp, which was built by the railway. Our ride back to Smallbrook Junction from Haven Street via Wootton had to be hauled by the railway's standby Class 03 diesel shunter, No D2059 after Army No 198 Royal Engineer failed with a sight problem. We enjoyed it very much.

Just as we were about to go back on the train, No 198 failed with a slight problem and was unable to take our train. They had to put on their standby Class 03 diesel shunter into service. Taken at Haven Street.
At Wootton Class 03 No D2059 runs around the train for the journey back to Smallbrook Junction.
In October 1999 we went again to Swanage, this time the Swanage Railway had cleared of their financial problems and they were now running trains to Corfe Castle and Norden. This meant we had a longer ride on the train, which was a 12 mile round trip. The disabled coach we used in 1991 was out of service and stored in the loop at Herston, so we had to use their other smaller disabled coach, which was not good as the other one, but we all enjoyed it as we had lovely weather on the day. Our train was hauled by a visiting steam engine No 7999. It was a two train service, so we had to wait at Harman's Cross to allow the other train which was hauled by No 80104 to pass while on our way to Norden and stop on the way back to Swanage.

Adam is seen being unloaded from the coach helped by Howard, Steve and the guard after arrival back at Swanage.
I plan to try and do another day out this summer, hopefully to the Severn Valley Railway. I have also added some photos of our past trips. I hope you enjoy them.


To whom did Paul write the epistle to the Galatians?
On his first missionary journey Paul visited and converted people in many cities of southern Galatia, such as Antioch, Lystra, Iconium, and Derbe which are referred to specifically in the book of Acts. The traditional view is that "Galatians" would have been the only term Paul could have used to refer to this collective region. There are some who believe that he was writing specifically to the northern region in Galatia. Their claim is that the vernacular of the day would have suggested that when people talked of Galatia they were speaking of this northern region. While the location of these believers is important to the date and other surrounding facts concerning this letter, it is minimally important for our understanding of Paul's views of the situation and of his message to the people.
We find out in Acts that while Paul and Barnabas were evangelizing this region, they were preaching the gospel by first going to the synagogues. When they met continued resistance from the Jewish leaders, they turned to the Gentiles who probably represented the majority of their converts. After their departure it seems as though some Jewish Christians followed them and were instructing these new believers on the necessity of obeying the Jewish law. In addition, these Jewish zealots were attempting to convince the Galatians of Paul's inferiority to the earlier apostles. It is most likely that these Jewish "Christians" were undermining Paul in order to give weight to their own purpose.
Knowing that these new Galatian converts were mere babes in Christ, Paul wrote passionately about his own dismay over what he considered their abandonment of the gospel. Paul came to them preaching a gospel of freedom in Christ, but they had allowed themselves to be enslaved to the law, denying the marvelous grace of God. They needed to reclaim their freedom in Christ as heirs of his promise, to be corrected in their misunderstanding of the importance and use of the law, and to be equipped for living as the body of Christ.

Alvin Kamara Runs for Six Touchdowns Against Vikings
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Alvin Kamara expects to be fined for carrying a pair of Christmas-themed cleats that, because it turned out, would even be worthy of a Corridor of Fame show.
With a purple shoe on his proper foot and a inexperienced one on his left, Kamara tied an N.F.L. file set in 1929 by operating for six touchdowns in a sport. He completed with a career-high 155 yards dashing to assist the New Orleans Saints beat the Minnesota Vikings 52-33 on Friday and clinch their fourth straight N.F.C. South title.
"It simply feels good to have a kind of days, only for the crew," Kamara mentioned, showering credit score on the Saints' offensive line.
"I'm not centered on private, like, targets and yards and stuff like that," Kamara continued. "So long as the crew has success, then private success will come."
That private success has come all season for Kamara, who throughout coaching camp signed a five-year contract value as much as $75 million. He has since set franchise information for dashing touchdowns in a season with 16 and whole touchdowns with 21.
A potential tremendous would come from carrying footwear that didn't conform to the N.F.L.'s uniform codes.
"In the event that they tremendous me, no matter it's, I'll simply match it and donate to charity," he mentioned. "You recognize, the Grinch at all times tries to steal Christmas."
Kamara slipped a few deal with makes an attempt after which sprinted into the clear for a 40-yard landing on the sport's opening drive. He added scoring runs of 1, 5, 6, 7 and three yards towards a Minnesota defensive entrance hit onerous by accidents, and equaled the Corridor of Fame fullback Ernie Nevers' achievement.
"It was superior," Saints quarterback Drew Brees mentioned. "Six touchdowns for a operating again is simply astounding."
Minnesota (6-9) was eradicated from playoff competition whereas permitting essentially the most factors by any Vikings crew since 1963, the franchise's third N.F.L. season. The Vikings additionally allowed essentially the most yards in a sport at 583. The Saints (11-4) by no means punted.
"They simply mashed us up entrance," Vikings Coach Mike Zimmer mentioned, calling his protection "the worst one I've ever had" as a coach. "We couldn't sluggish them down. It will be 8-yard acquire, 7-yard acquire."
Saints Coach Sean Payton mentioned it felt like a Canadian Soccer League sport, with many first-down conversions coming earlier than New Orleans even obtained to 3rd down. The Saints may need received by a higher margin if not for 2 interceptions of Drew Brees, one in all them on a cross that deflected off receiver Emmanuel Sanders' arms.
Brees accomplished 19 of 26 throws for 311 yards in his second sport again from rib and lung accidents that had sidelined him for 4 video games.
Sanders had 4 catches for 83 yards, whereas tight finish Jared Cook dinner caught three passes for 82 yards. New Orleans' 264 yards dashing have been essentially the most by a Vikings opponent in Zimmer's seven seasons.
New Orleans native Irv Smith Jr. caught a pair of landing passes within the third quarter for the Vikings, with the second pulling Minnesota to inside 31-27. However the Saints responded with two quick landing runs by Kamara and one by the versatile Taysom Hill within the fourth quarter to place the sport out of attain.
Kirk Cousins handed for 283 yards and three touchdowns for the Vikings, who by no means led and trailed for good after Kamara's second landing within the first quarter.
Saints gamers celebrated the final Kamara landing by pretending to make snow angels on the Superdome turf, which heart Erik McCoy deliberate in the course of the ultimate drive as one thing that caught with the Christmas theme.
Payton, who spent a part of his youth within the Chicago space, was fascinated by Gale Sayers' six-touchdown sport (4 dashing, two receiving) towards San Francisco in 1965 when he known as the play that led to Kamara's ultimate rating with simply lower than two minutes left.
"I'd say most of those gamers don't know how good Gale Sayers was," Payton mentioned, including that Kamara's landing whole "was an enormous deal. He performed incredible."
The Saints will go to the Carolina Panthers on Jan. 3, the ultimate Sunday of the common season, whereas Minnesota will go to the Detroit Lions.
