Using the square again, locate the crotch depth on the Center Front. The Back crotch should be placed lined up with the front crotch.
Ah! Wait! Missa, you didn't label front and back!
Don't worry. The back skirt is on the right, and has the longer darts. Because the human body, that's why.
At this point, you will likely have a situation where measuring from the back crotch to the waist will not give you the same thing you got in front. Try not to worry to hard about that. It's pretty normal.
This is the human body (again). If you take a look at the shape of this skirt block, the Center Back actually dips lower than the Center Front, and both of them dip from the side seam. That's telling us that this block was made for someone with a defined hip curve, some degree of abdominal arc (aka, a panza, marshmallow fluff, or whatever you prefer to call your tummy fats), and a very flat bum. I mean, Oklahoma levels of flatness are going on in that there derrière.
At some point, this was absolutely the fashionable shape, because this is a reduced and vectorized version of a block I scanned from the text I used as a student. My own personal blocks tend to go up at Center Back. It's pretty rare for CF and CB to be level in skirt block, which is totally not a problem for a skirt block.
For a pant block, it's going to lead to tragedy, because if you measure the crotch depth down from the waist at both Center Front and Center Back, the crotches won't be level, so the front and back inside leg seams will be different lengths. It's just quite the situation, isn't it? I vote for avoiding that.
Extend the skirt sloper at CF and CB so that it can go around the thigh. For a reasonably close fit, start with 20% of the block with (at hip) at Center Front and 25% at Center Back.
Find the midpoint of the Crotch Depth, Front and Back.
Draw a smooth curve from the midpoint of the Crotch Depth, out to the end of the Crotch Extension for both the Front and the Back.
Maaaaaaajor Watchpoint: Remember how you measured you Crotch Length earlier?
If you measure the two curves you just drew, and they are less than that Crotch Length, you're going to have some problems getting those pants on. Since we know that won't work, let's fix it now.
Enlarge the crotch extensions until the curve is the correct length. For most body types, the back will be a larger extension than the front. Check and repeat, if needed.
This is one of the times when flexible rulers are supremely awesome, btw.
Now we basically have a short, but we're going for a pant, so we're going to have to lengthen this.
Subtract your Crotch Depth measurement from both your Waist to Knee and Waist to Ankle measurements. We'll call these new numbers the Adjusted Waist to Knee and Adjusted Waist to Ankle.
Measure down from the Crotch Depth the Adjusted Waist to Knee and Adjusted Waist to Ankle measurements. Square across from Front to Back.
Find the middle of the Ankle line, both Front and Back. Square a line up to the top of the pant. This is the crease line.
So, now you've got a pant block. Let's talk about the sewing up, just in case….
Great instructions! Good point on how to measure the crotch depth, that will help when fitting commercial patterns too.


I'm predicting another 2-1 Milwaukee win of the series. A Friday win for Minny and Sat & Sun wins for Milwauk.
Harris going number 5 is pretty cool. I'm pretty sure that's the highest a Badger has ever gone (Finley was 21). And if he stays in Dallas with Finley that would put the two best Badgers on the same team. I might have to start liking them more, depending on what other moves they make.
Brewers will definitely take at least 2 of 3 from the Twins. Brewer pitching is unshakable right now. It's only a matter of whether or not the Brewers can put up a few more runs.
"As the fifth overall selection in the draft, Harris becomes the sixth Badger ever selected in the NBA's first round and the earliest chosen since Don Rehfeldt was picked No. 2 in the 1950 draft by the Baltimore Bullets."
So I guess I was wrong on that part. It's suprisingly difficult to find stats for players from that long ago. As far as I can tell, he only played two years in the NBA, so Harris and Finley could still be the best duo.
Same name, 2 different sites. The hyphen makes the difference. Now to really be confusing... The one without the hyphen looks the most like one of my favorite sites (Baseball Reference but, they're not "related". The one with the hyphen, however, is "related" to Baseball Reference.
Thanks for the tip Matt. I'd already been to basketballreference.com, so I checked the other one too. That one also had him listed as only playing two years. He played less games the second year, so I don't if he had a career ending injury or he just wasn't good in the NBA. I'll have to check it out I guess. Holla at the Brewers!
Brewers are one game away from taking the Minnesota-Wisconsin Title!!......or something like that.
Shaq quote of the day, "But can't nobody [mess] with me. I'm like toilet paper, Pampers and toothpaste. I'm definitely proven to be effective."


Ionel Botef, South Africa, ID LLCE2017-101; Abstract: Studies show that creativity is a combination of past human achievements so, to a good extent, nothing is entirely original. However, to truly create and connect the countless dots from the past, one must have knowledge, skills, insights, and inspiration gathered over the course of one's life. The recombination of ideas from a wealth of disciplines is not new but, more than ever, the approach is required in the present century. However, due to the complexity of our culture, there are many shortcomings that affect its implementation. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to explore why the combinatorial creativity concept did not succeed in leading to a more efficient educational and creative society. Based on the paper's qualitative findings supported by authorities, evidence, or logic spanning language, literature, arts, science, IT, 3D printing, and philosophy, essentially, it is argued that the various approaches to education are interdependent and so, should not be viewed in isolation, but should be viewed as components of a broad framework that unites them and that finally leads to a more innovative 21st century learning and culture.

Q: Reading textfile into dictionary My code:
fd = open('C:\Python27\\alu.txt', 'r')
D = dict(line.split("\n") for line in fd)

It shows the following error
traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\ram\Desktop\rest_enz3.py", line 8, in <module>
    D = dict(line.split("\n") for line in fd)
ValueError: dictionary update sequence element #69 has length 1; 2 is required

A: The only newline you'll ever find in line will be the one at the very end, so line.split("\n") will return a list of length 1. Perhaps you meant to use a different delimiter. If your file looks like...
lorem:ipsum
dolor:sit

Then you should do
D=dict(line.strip().split(":") for line in fd)

A: As Kevin above points out, line.split("\n") is a bit odd, but maybe the file is just a list of dictionary keys?
Regardless, the error you get implies that the line.split("\n") returns just a single element (in other words, the line is missing the trailing newline). For example:
"Key1\n".split("\n") returns ["Key1", ""]

while
"Key1".split("\n") returns ["Key1"]

dict([["key1", ""],["key2", ""]])

is fine, while
dict([["key1, ""],["key2"]])

returns the error you quote
It may be as simple as editing the file in question and adding a new line at the end of the file.

A: File example: alu.txt

has landed herself another magazine cover and this time she's one of five gorgeous, young Hollywood starlets gracing the same issue in separate covers. For Marie Claire's May "Fresh Faces" issue, the Oscar-winning actress sports a bright pink Christopher Kane strapless gown and talks about the sudden whirl of being fashion's latest It Girl.
"Being called gorgeous is not a bad thing!" Nyong'o said. "But at the same time, I don't want to thrive on people's opinions of me."
Nyong'o admitted that she wasn't always into fashion and we love that she's quick to give credit where it's due — on her superstar stylist who's been knocking it out of the park with every look Nyong'o steps out in.
"I wasn't a follower of fashion," the 31-year-old said. "It was a world unknown. Then I met my stylist, Micaela Erlanger [who was introduced to Nyong'o by her friend and Non-Stop co-star Michelle Dockery], and we came to interpret my style: clean lines, strong color. I don't dress to impress; I don't feel that pressure."
Actresses Elizabeth Olsen, Elle Fanning, Emilia Clarke and Kate Mara are also featured on their own Marie Claire covers for the same issue. The group celebrated the issue at Marie Claire's "Fresh Faces" party on Tuesday where Nyong'o wore a Giambattista Valli Couture floral-print gown.

JUDGMENT OF THE CIVIL SERVICE TRIBUNAL
(Second Chamber)
Case F-9/06
Rui Canteiro Lopes
Commission of the European Communities
(Officials – Promotion – Consideration of comparative merits – No definitive staff report)
Application: brought under Articles 236 EC and 152 EA, in which Mr Canteiro Lopes seeks annulment of the Commission decision of 4 March 2005 not to add his name to the list of officials judged to be the most deserving and not to promote him to Grade A 4 in the 2000 promotion exercise.
Held: The action is dismissed. The parties are ordered to bear their own costs.
1. Officials – Reports procedure – Staff report – Drawing up
(Staff Regulations, Arts 2, first para., and 43)
2. Officials – Promotion – Criteria
(Staff Regulations, Art. 45)
1. Where it has not been possible to draw up an official's staff report under normal procedural conditions because of exceptional circumstances, such as the fact that his assessor and his appeal assessor have left the institution and the directorate-general to which he was posted has been disbanded, it is consistent with the need for continuity in administrative action for the report to be drawn up by the director-general, who, under the terms of the decision adopted by the institution on the exercise of the powers conferred by the Staff Regulations on the appointing authority, has powers not specifically referred to in that decision.
(see para. 56)
2. The assessment of the merits of the officials eligible for promotion is the decisive factor for all promotions, while the appointing authority may take candidates' age and seniority in grade or service into consideration only as a secondary factor. However, where the merits of the officials eligible for promotion are equal, those additional criteria may rightly constitute a decisive factor in the appointing authority's choice.
A difference of two points between the analytical assessments of two officials eligible for promotion who also belong to two different directorates-general may not be regarded as sufficiently significant, given the differences in reporting between directorates-general, to prevent other objective criteria relating to the administrative and personal situation of the officials in question from being taken into account as a secondary factor, such as seniority or the fact that they have already been included in the list of the most deserving officials in a previous exercise .
(see paras 63, 67-68)

We arrived in Turin one late autumn afternoon. Upon entering our charming home away from home, Christina, our host, showed me into the black-and-white tiled kitchen. She left me a few books on Piedmont's rich cuisine she thought I might like, and as she left, I noticed a plate, covered in an embroidered square handkerchief.
I took a peek. Underneath were these fragrant, buttery, flaky twists. I took a bite of one and was instantly hooked: The slightly sticky bottoms were covered in caramelized sugar, while the rest was crunchy and crumbly. I texted Christina to find out what these amazing things were. "They're torcetti," she replied. And during the rest of my weekend in Turin, I couldn't walk past a bakery without stopping to get a bag of torcèt, as they're known in Piedmont.
Piedmont, the region that's also known for its grissini, certainly knows breadsticks. And torcetti are essentially breadsticks (with a bit of butter added for its distinct flakiness), rolled in sugar, twisted into a drop shape and baked. They're eaten throughout the day—for breakfast, as an afternoon pick-me-up, or even after dinner, perhaps with some dessert wine.
Born in the old communal woodfired ovens of the countryside north of Turin, torcetti were a special treat made for children while the adults busied themselves with baking bread.
The torcetti from the Valley of Biella (known as "torcetti biellese") are the most famous, though many variations and methods exist . Older versions are called "torchietti" and can be found in a Piedmont dessert books from the late 1700s. Even the chef Giovanni Vialardi, who cooked for the Savoy royal family, lists three versions of them in his 1854 cookbook under the topic of "Modern Pastry Making" (which, for the record, is a feat of a cookbook with 2000 recipes).
Some versions skip the yeast and make them more like cookies, with baking soda acting as the rising agent. These are like instant torcetti, as you don't need to wait for the dough to rise. However I like the traditional version using bread dough, and it's no extra work, you just need time ting or two risings. I suggest doing the second rise overnight, popping the bowl into the fridge and let the the dough work while you're sleeping. The next morning, the buttery dough, thanks to the chill of the fridge, is also easier to handle. And you'll have warm torcetti to dip into your morning coffee—the best kind of buongiorno.
Have you made torcetti before? Tell us in the comments.

The students and staff at the Oaklands College Celebration of Success ceremony. Picture: Lello Ametrano.
St Albans author Stacey Turner presented awards to the best and brightest of Oaklands College staff and students at their end of year ceremony.
The Celebration of Success event featured winners who were commended for their commitment, impact and tenacity.
In her opening speech, Stacey said: "Every time I am interviewed or asked to make a speech, I wish I could produce a crystal ball containing flashes of moments that have defined my journey.
"You'd see the moment I was told I was ugly. The moment I was told I'd never amount to anything. That I lost my father in tragic circumstances at 13. I went to nine different schools and that only includes primary and secondary. The anxiety and depression at times. You'd see all the set backs, knock backs and noes. The dedication, the blood, sweat and tears, hours of hard work, often through the night, and mostly without reward.
"I have had 47 letters saying 'thank you for your submission Mrs Turner, however we are unable to proceed to publishing with you at this time'.
"I was determined not to allow the sharpness of these moments deter or hold me back. I've really amazed myself and soon I will be celebrating my second book.
"Don't be afraid to speak up, ask for help and talk. Don't wait for the yesses, go out and get them. Don't compare yourself or your journey to others. Don't give up. Don't be afraid to tell yourself who you are.
"Do put things in place to support your personal, academic and professional journey. Believe in yourself, you're stronger than you realise and so much more than you know.
"If someone says no, it's not meant for you right now, trust your journey and appreciate every step of the way. Look after your mind and have hope. Know that it's OK to feel unsure and disheartened.
Among the award winners, A-Level student Oliver Bowbrick took the department's trophy, after accepting an unconditional offer to study at Cambridge.
Level two animal care student Kieran Grattan received the Landbased Award for his commitment to the college and passion for learning.
The Principal's Award went to level four business administration apprentice George Giles for taking the lead in events management for the college's annual Summer Fair, which attracted around 8,000 visitors.
Director of entry-level studies Carole Jones was awarded the Chair's Award for her "tenacious and innovative approach" in supporting young people with complex support needs.
Carpentry and joinery technician Peter Templeman was specially recognised after being awarded with a British Empire Medal for services to technical education in the 2018 Birthday Honours List.
College principal Zoe Hancock said: "Success comes in many forms – overcoming obstacles, personal development, leading by example as well as academic success.
The college has donated £1,000 to the Bradley Lowery Foundation to help Siobhan Mather, a St Albans girl suffering from neuroblastoma.
Stacey said: "I am incredibly fortunate to collaborate with various people and community organisations, like Oaklands College, and witness the impact of my work.
"My involvement within the community has lead me to meet inspiring people to include a little girl named Siobhan, who is three-years-old and fighting stage four neuroblastoma, currently on her second round of chemotherapy.
"I joined Siobhan's fight many months ago by creating the princess campaign.
"One of the characters in my book dresses as a princess, so I decided Siobhan must have her very own princess, in the hope of helping to raise towards the goal of £400,000 as much of her treatment is unavailable on the NHS.

4 reasons the Los Angeles Rams will defeat the Seahawks in Week 14
Skyler Carlin
The Los Angeles Rams will host the Seattle Seahawks in Week 14 in a game that could decide whether the Rams make the playoffs. The Rams are currently 7-5, in third place in the NFC West.
Before Sunday's game is played, the San Francisco 49ers and Minnesota Vikings hold the two Wild Card spots in the NFC. Considering that the 49ers are 10-2, it's likely that Los Angeles will need Minnesota to fall short somewhere to get into the playoffs.
At the same time, the Rams can control their own destiny by winning the rest of their games. That will be easier said than done when their scheduled includes the Seahawks, 49ers, Dallas Cowboys, and Arizona Cardinals.
In the end, it comes down to what version of the Rams show up on Sunday night. On the other hand, Seattle has won five games in a row, which is the second-longest winning streak in the NFL behind the Baltimore Ravens.
With that being said, here are four reasons why the Rams will defeat the Seahawks in Week 14.
4. The Rams' offense showed signs of life in Week 13
Last week against the Cardinals, Los Angeles was able to blowout their divisional foe 34-7 behind the play of the offense. It was arguably the first time all year that Jared Goff and the Rams' offense looked like the group we saw torching defenses in 2018.
Goff easily had his best performance of the season as he completed 32 of his 43 attempts for 424 yards and two touchdowns. Above all, the fourth-year quarterback was able to avoid turning the ball over.
With the Rams' offense showing signs of life, this Los Angeles team can absolutely secure a win at home. Since Sean McVay became the head coach of the Rams in 2017, four out of the past five games against the Seahawks have been decided by six or fewer points (with Los Angeles winning three out of the five).
3. Sean McVay is finally utilizing Todd Gurley more in the offense
From the moment the season began, McVay has been criticized for how he's utilized Todd Gurley. Whether it be because of his knee ailment or just being stubborn, the All-Pro running back was an afterthought in the offense for a majority of the season.
However, in recent weeks, Gurley has seen his workload drastically increase. Over the team's past three games, Gurley has touched the ball 20 or more times twice.
Before those two games, the dual-threat running back had yet to have an outing where he was given more than 19 touches. Despite Seattle having a stout run defense, the usage of Gurley in recent weeks is pleasant to see for the Rams.
2. The Rams have a run defense who can slow down the Seahawks' rushing attack
The Seahawks are undoubtedly a run-oriented offense despite having Russell Wilson as their quarterback. Chris Carson has been the featured back for the past two seasons but now Rashaad Penny is beginning to also get involved in the backfield.
In Seattle's past two games, Carson and Penny have combined for 331 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns. There's no doubt that the Seahawks want to keep their dynamic duo rolling on Sunday night.
While the Seahawks want to pound the rock, Los Angeles has a run defense that can slow them down. Through the first 13 weeks, the Rams have the 13th ranked run defense that allows 104.2 yards per game.
1. The Rams have Jalen Ramsey this time
Earlier this season, the Seahawks were able to squeak out a narrow victory over the Rams in Seattle in Week 5. Many people forget that Los Angeles should've won that game had Greg Zuerlein made a 44-yard field goal near the end of regulation.
Now, this time that the two teams meet, the Rams have Jalen Ramsey on their defense. It's likely that Ramsey draws the responsibility of covering Tyler Lockett for the majority of the contest.
Since Ramsey arrived in Los Angeles in Week 7, the Rams have only allowed two teams to throw for over 200 yards. By looking at the box score, Ramsey hasn't produced many statistics but he's still playing at an All-Pro level.

In the Gospel reading from Luke's Gospel, we hear the story of the persistent widow who pestered the judge who finally gave her justice to get rid of her. Does that mean that God is like a crooked judge? I don't think so. Does it mean that we should pester God like a poor widow? No, The point is that God is NOT like the crooked judge and that those who call on God do not have to pester God into doing anything. God is always more ready to answer than we are to call.
Perseverance: continued patient effort. Perseverance is a frequent theme in the Lord's teaching. We think of perseverance regarding our continuing to pray and to continue following our Lord to the place where he has gone. That is certainly true, but I submit to you and me that what is more extraordinary is God's perseverance – the Holy Ones continued patient effort! Nowhere is this more dynamic more clearly revealed than in the life of Jacob.
We have the key part of Jacob's story in today's first reading from Genesis. But first, let me bring us review the story up to this point. Abraham's son, Isaac, married Rebecca, the daughter of Abraham's brother. Rebecca and Isaac had twin boys: Esau and Jacob. The boys struggled in the womb and Esau was born first with the hand of his twin firmly around his ankle. Therefore the second twin was named Jacob or heel-grabber.
The boys grew up to be very different men. Esau was a big hairy guy who liked to hunt and to be out in the field. I'm sure that he had a gun rack or maybe an arrow rack in the back of his chariot. He was sort of a Bubba, and his daddy liked him a lot. Jacob was more of a homebody, and he liked to cook and hang around the tent with his momma. Needless to say, she liked him a lot.
Jacob was a schemer and Esau was a bubba so one day when Esau came in from hunting and was famished he sold Jacob his birthright for a mess of lentils. And then Rebecca hatched a scheme to get Isaac to give Jacob the blessing that rightly belonged to Esau. Isaac was almost blind so when he asked Esau to get him a mess of venison she went into action. She made up a goat stew that would pass for venison, and she put the hairy skins on Jacob's smooth arms, and so the old man gave Esau's blessing to Jacob. When Esau learned what had happened, he threatened to kill Jacob. So Jacob skipped town and went to live with Rebecca's brother, Laban.
Now Laban was even better at scheming than Jacob. Jacob may have been good as a schemer, but Uncle Laban was a master of the art of using people and getting the better deal at someone's expense. To make a long story short, Jacob fell in love with Rachel, Laban's second daughter. So he married her. But on the wedding night, Laban slipped the eldest daughter, Leah into the marriage bed. And Jacob in his haste didn't know until morning that he had married the wrong sister. Leah was the sloe-eyed one. We don't know what that means exactly, but you can count on the fact that it was no compliment. Maybe she had glasses that looked like the bottom of a coke bottle. At any rate for seven additional years, he was already signed up for seven years to marry the first daughter. So fourteen years became twenty-one by the time Jacob had worked off the flocks Uncle Laban "gave" him.
Then it was finally time to go home and face the music. So that brings us to the reading for today. Jacob sent word to Esau that he is coming home. The messenger tells him that Bubba is coming to meet him accompanied by 400 men. Jacob is terrified. He divided his company into two groups so that at least one group would likely get away if Esau attacks them. That night he got up and crossed the Jabbok River. He sent both groups on ahead, and he is left alone.
On the way to Uncle Laban, Jacob had slept in the open alone like this night by the Jabbok. He had dreamed on that earlier night of a great ladder that stretched from heaven to earth. Angels were ascending and descending on that ladder. God spoke to Jacob and told him that he would go with him and that he would bring him home again.
Up to this time, gods were localized. If you moved from one place to another, you had to change gods like you have to change addresses. This is an innovation in the god business. Yahweh is not limited by the zip code! I will go with you, and I will bring you back again. So now over twenty years later Jacob is on the verge of returning home. And it was then that it happened. There on the river bank, (Note that crossing rivers symbolize the overcoming of an important personal threshold of experience.) in the night a being suddenly leaped on him. The literal words in the text say, "And there was one." Some kind of seeming adversary grabbed Jacob. Jacob wrestles all night long. We never really know what the "one" is. Is it God? An angel? Does Jacob wrestle with himself? Today would we call it wrestling with our shadow? Or is it Esau or Esau's angel that he wrestles with in a prelude to their match on the morrow?
They wrestled until daybreak. The "one" saw that he could not overpower Jacob, so he pressed Jacob's hamstring so that he was injured.
But he replied, "Why do you ask my name?" And he blessed him there.
John Sanford says that there are three basic experiences can break down this diseased ego: 1. suffering, 2. coming to care for someone other than ourselves, & 3. the recognition of a power greater than our own will is at work in our lives.
Notice that Jacob does suffer as a result of his choices. Uncle Laban uses him, and that produces suffering. He came to care deeply for Rachel and now by the River Jabbok, which is a pun in Hebrew with the word wrestle, he encounters a power greater than himself. He limps into the future, but he limps with a new name. He is no longer, Jacob/heel grabber, but Israel.
God promises us that he will go with us wherever we go. God promises to bring us back to the land of promise. And many times we will not see God's hand at work in the world around us, but He is there.
Ego pain is growing pain.
On Thursdays since last Labor Day, my SOULWorks Group has volunteered at Manna House, a place of radical hospitality at Cleveland and Jefferson. There street folk can shower, get clean clothes and several cups of the strongest coffee in Memphis, Tennessee. I have many new friends there. I have yet to hear anyone complain about their lot. Actually, "I woke up this morning and I'm glad to be moving, today," is the most common remark. I now know both coming and going a profound truth. Namely, having little doesn't necessarily produce bitterness any more than having everything necessarily produces gratitude.
A young man there is tormented by voices in his head. That's an irony as his name is Emmanuel, "God with us." Every time I meet him, it is for the first time. He looks carefully, quizzically at my face and I introduce myself (again). Recently, I learned that his mother comes there most every day. She stands and looks at him, he looks back, but he never knows her. Yet she comes. That's what mothers do. What she feels, she has never said.
Certainly Jesus knew his mother that Friday morning, as they began to crucify him. Perhaps, amnesia would have been a kindness. She stood looking up, he looking down and their eyes met. I've often wondered if Simeon's words echoed in Mary's memory that Friday noon. He had snatched Jesus from her arms over thirty years earlier, announcing to anyone who would stop and listen that this one was Messiah! His parting line, "Yea, a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also, that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed," gained strangling clarity as she stood in the mid-day sun.
But then, because power is addictive in itself, we pursue it for its own sake. Naturally, as with any competition, where everybody is driving and finally diving for the prize, there must a winner and lots of losers.
How many remember who won the final-four last year? How many remember the third runner up? How many remember last year's runner up.
Winners are empowered and losers are not. But even the winners are empowered for a short time before it all begins again. On and on it goes. As it has ever since Cain lost God's regard that time and enraged at his loss of power, murdered his brother Abel.
Regardless then we lose or win, we have the same fear: having enough, or not being enough or, finally not being at all, that twists us into perverse caricatures of what a human should be. There we will always trust our own ego above all others and distrust anyone else.
Power has been our strategy, Control is our universal policy. We have consoled ourselves with the idea that if we worked hard enough, learned enough built technology powerful we could in our way finally achieve what our distant ancestors could not achieve that time with the tower.
Truly it is true that never in the history of our race have so many had so much for such a long time. We split the atom looking for power, last century and we found it. The irony is that while splitting the atom produced power beyond imagination, the bitter irony is that nuclear energy is lethal. Our will to power is lethal such that it will cost us our souls. The Gospel revealed by God in Christ is that something is terribly wrong in the human heart – and before the foundation of the world, God set out to do something about it.
Of course no one got what God was about. That has been clear since, the Evil One gave Jesus advice on how to get the Kingdom underway that time in the Wilderness. The disciples didn't get it either, nor his family or the priests, scribes, Romans of every station and power. And frankly, few have ever "gotten it"! Why was that? God's plan was so outrageous, so clever that we marvel today at the elegant equation of grave. God's secret weapon was humility.
I believe that I speak for all of us when I state that this is, in point of fact, exactly what we are not looking for!
Death is, in point of fact, the only thing that men and women have in common from the beginning of the world onwards, throughout all regions and cultures of the world.
And thus Christ reveals what it is to be God through the only thing that we have in common. He does this not simply by dying –, he does it by the way that he has died.
Any such option will have excluded some people: for those who do not fit any such group would have had no part in him.
Ironically, it is precisely where the world detects the most obvious example of weakness— the cross— that God triumphs over sin and death at the peak of their most deadly power. Here's the irony: Just where the highest and holiest victim of truly undeserved suffering cries out, "My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?" victory over sin and death is taking place. This the foolishness and weakness that trump the wisdom and power of the ages! Horton, Michael S. – A Place for Weakness: Preparing Yourself for Suffering (p. 28y).
4 ALL WE NEED DO IS BE DEAD.
You do know we are all going to die? Is this not incredible? The only thing we have to do is be dead! We begin to die by repenting.
I have told this story before in this. What I lose in novelty, let me take up by way of testimony. I want to tell you of the day that the truth the way down is the way up became more than theology, more than abstraction, a nice idea but unrealistic. It happened on this wise… In the winter of 1978, I was driving on the Bluegrass Parkway in the central Kentucky. 1978 was a brutal winter over all this country. Snow was deep and the road icy and dangerous. I say that because I was literally had seen no other car for miles and hours. Well, I was doing pretty well, having experience in icy weather. That was when it happened. Suddenly, without warning the car began to spin 360° – as the landscape began to spin, time slowed & I thought, I hadn't planned on this what and I going to do after the car turns upside down? My foot and leg and already learned that slamming on the brake was a really bad idea. Steering wildly had no good outcome.
Then I had that moment of clarity. A thought came to me, one so outrageous and counter-intuitive I would never have entertained had I any other option. But, I was flat out of options. There was simply nothing I could do to fix my problem. I could makes things worse but not better. I took my hands off the steering wheel, held them in mid-air. No longer in charge, having given up any power I had remaining was just along for the ride. The car righted itself. Now, I was headed in the wrong direction and grateful. What I learned that day in the frozen hills of Kentucky has served me well all these years and decades in two different centuries. Dealing with matters of power and faith is like driving a car on ice. Doing what comes naturally, is almost always not the thing to do.
The death of Jesus shows us what an authentic human being looks like AND the death of Jesus releases grace, the energy, to get over ourselves and our ego. I see this power at work in lives of people every day.
Every day, Alcoholics Anonymous teaches me that what can never be done with white-knuckled will power, happens whenever any of us finally take our hands off the steering wheel, raise them in the air and surrender to the power of Christ's death.
In that moment we die in the death of Christ.
In that moment we also rise with Christ in his resurrection.
From Under the Rubble; Repentance and self-limitation in the lives of nations.
We are free, beloved, we are free to limit ourselves for the sake of others. Brothers and Sisters of the household of faith, I say to you this Easter day, self-limitation is true freedom.
The 'particular manner' in which Jesus died was exactly self-limitation for the sake of others.
And by exercising this true freedom, by pursuing humility instead of power, his suffering was transformed into salvation.
And now we, on this Easter Day, praise him in celebration of the downward trail he blazed.
We do this in faith that in humility, our suffering, too, is transformed into salvation.
TO HIM, BE GLORY NOW AND FOREVER.

African land force chiefs assemble for annual summit
By Capt. James SheehanOctober 8, 2019
ABUJA, Nigeria -- Forty African land force chiefs represented their countries at the sixth African Land Forces Summit here, April 16-19.Co-hosted by the Nigerian Army and U.S. Army Africa, ALFS is a weeklong seminar designed to bring together land force chiefs from nations across Africa to discuss and develop cooperative solutions and improve transregional security and stability."It's been fascinating working with these professionals (as they) open up about their ideas for combatting terrorism, violent extremist organizations, building security and stability across the continent," said Lt. Gen. T.Y. Buratai, the Nigerian chief of army staff and the summit's Nigerian host. "I am confident that this summit has generated new partnerships and relationships that will help us reach our long-term objective for a more prosperous Africa."All four days were packed with activities designed to prompt conversation between the participating countries' influential leaders.Monday, April 16, opened up with a ceremony welcoming the chiefs and encouraging each one to speak up about their host country's challenges and the lessons they've learned combating violent extremist organizations. In the afternoon, the delegates broke into smaller groups for a more intimate and non-attributable discussion."Some say the most productive part of ALFS happens during the coffee breaks," said Lt. Col. Hector Montemayor, the ALFS lead planner for U.S. Army Africa. "The breaks give them a chance to talk frankly and develop closer relationships. That's what ALFS is about; it's about introducing these powerful leaders now, so they can work together as a team to solve critical issues facing the continent.""You don't want to be exchanging business cards at the scene of a crisis," said Brig. Gen. William Prendergast, the U.S. Army Africa deputy commanding general. "If you wait to develop partnerships at the scene, you're too late. If these leaders need to quickly fly in and support a humanitarian crisis or contingency operation, it'll be easier if they are shaking hands with a familiar face."On the second day, the whole summit loaded into buses and moved an hour south to the Nigerian Army's 176th Guards Battalion's headquarters to witness a military demonstration of the Nigerian Army's capabilities.The demonstration featured a raid and hostage-rescue scenario. The Nigerian Army brought in helicopters, pyrotechnics, controlled explosions, motorcycles, fast-repelling special forces and smoke grenades."The demonstration was spectacular, an awesome display of the Nigerian Army's military might," Montemayor said.On the following day, delegates spent the morning focusing in on the different elements it takes combat violent extremists and boost regional security. The chiefs discussed logistics, civilians on the battlefield, and why incorporating human rights into a national defense plan is critical for long-term success.In the afternoon, the delegates moved to the Nigerian Army Resource Center, a military museum full of old military relics and stories of past battles fought by the Nigerian Army. Later, they moved to Abuja's international conference center to get a taste of Nigerian culture with a showcase of traditional Nigerian dancing and cuisine."What a tremendous week it has been here in Abuja, Nigeria," said U.S. Army Africa Acting Commanding General Brig. Gen. Eugene LeBoeuf. "Our wonderful co-hosts, Nigeria, provided an outstanding venue and hospitality in their beautiful nation."The concluding day of the summit gave the chiefs a final opportunity to convey their challenges and to set an agenda for future dialog. In the afternoon, the Nigerian TV stations broadcast the closing ceremony live across the country. Buratai and LeBoeuf wrapped up the summit by talking to international journalists who dialed in to the South African Regional Media Hub."The African Land Summit emphasizes community strength," Buratai said during the media hubs. "We need to unify all our forces on the ground, as well as all the necessary governments, to be put in place to ensure that we get the right political support and we get the right direction, including the soft-power approach, which includes deradicalization."Botswana is scheduled to host the African Land Forces Summit in 2019.

WSTA nominated for European Association Awards
By Shay Waterworth
The Wine and Spirit Trade Association has been shortlisted for two European Association Awards, which will take place on February 23 in Brussels.
The WSTA is one of six finalists in the 'Best Conference under 225 attendees' category, and have also made the final round of the 'Best National Association' category.
Miles Beale, chief executive of the WSTA, said: "Whilst 2018 is only a few days old, we're already building on the success of last year and continuing to do all we can for wine and spirits. Nevertheless, it would be fantastic to pick up an award in February – or even do the double."
In its first submission, the WSTA centred on their Annual Conference, which featured a line-up of speakers including Lord Price, former trade minister, and Tim Martin, Wetherspoon chairman.
The Conference set out how the Government can deliver for the wine and spirit industry during Britain's exit from the European Union, and also invited attendees to think creatively about the opportunities that Brexit may present.
The second submission set out how the WSTA delivered for its members during what it described as a 'turbulent' 2017.
Navigating through the uncertainty created by the developing Brexit negotiations, a surprise general election and subsequent hung Parliament, the WSTA worked throughout 2017 to secure a freeze in alcohol duty in the November Budget.
Alongside this, the WSTA hosted several events overseas to foster export opportunities for members, and maintained a consistent and clear presence in the media right throughout the year.

Dropbox highlights productivity enhancements in rollout of new services
Dropbox kicked off its 2017 product launches with a pair of major announcements Monday aimed at improving users' productivity at work. The cloud storage company announced the general availability of its Paper document collaboration service, along with the closed beta of a Smart Sync feature that gives users easy access to every file shared with them in Dropbox.
Paper , first announced in 2015 , gives users a shared workspace to work with one another on documents. It's designed to be the product people use for collaborative tasks like brainstorming and taking meeting notes.

Dropbox prompts certain users to change their passwords
Dropbox is asking users who signed up before mid-2012 to change their passwords if they haven't done so since then.
The cloud storage service said it was asking users to change their passwords as a preventive measure, and not because there is any indication that their accounts were improperly accessed.
Dropbox said it was taking the measure because its security teams learned about an old set of Dropbox user credentials, consisting of email addresses and hashed and salted passwords, which it believes were obtained in 2012 and could be linked to an incident the company reported around the time.
In July 2012, Dropbox said its investigation found that usernames and passwords recently stolen from other websites were used to sign in to a small number of of Dropbox accounts. It said it had contacted the users affected to help them protect their accounts.

Dropbox Paper is now available to all as an open beta
Ten months after Dropbox first unveiled Paper, the collaborative writing tool entered open beta on Wednesday and is getting mobile versions for iOS and Android.
Paper allows teams to work on documents together in the cloud. It makes it easy to add text, images and embedded videos from YouTube, Google, or Dropbox itself. Users can also add programming code, which gets formatted automatically. And they can create to-do lists and assign tasks on those lists using the @ symbol.
Since its debut in private beta, Paper has been used to create more than a million documents for tasks like brainstorming ideas and capturing meeting notes, Dropbox said. Based on lessons learned along the way, Dropbox has improved the software with better tables and image galleries, more powerful search, and notifications via desktop and mobile.

Dropbox enhances its productivity tools across the board
Dropbox just dumped a ton of new productivity features on users of its file storage and collaboration service that are all aimed at making it easier for people to get work done within its applications.
Updates to the Dropbox app for iOS allow users to scan documents directly into the cloud storage service, and get started with creating Microsoft Office files from that app as well. The company also increased the ease and security of sharing files through Dropbox, and made it easier to preview and comment on files shared through the service.

These launches mean that Dropbox will be more valuable to people as a productivity service, and not just a folder to hold files. It's especially important as the company tries to capture the interest of business users, who have a wide variety of competing storage services they could subscribe to instead.

Dropbox wants to stretch desktop file storage to infinity
Dropbox has a futuristic vision for how its users will be able to share massive files and have quick access to them on their computers, without their hard drives overflowing.
The cloud storage company announced a new initiative at its Open conference in London on Tuesday called Project Infinite. It's a push to create a new Dropbox interface that allows users to see all of the files they've stored in the cloud in their computer's file explorer without requiring them to keep local copies of each document, image, spreadsheet or other file.
[ Survive the data explosion — InfoWorld tells you how to meet the challenge of the onslaught of petabytes before it overwhelms your company. | Stay up on best practices and news with InfoWorld's Storage newsletter. ]
With Project Infinite, users will be able to manage their files in the cloud by moving them around inside the Mac OS X Finder or Windows File Explorer, just like they would any local files that are taking up space on their hard drives.

Dropbox quits Amazon cloud, takes back 500 PB of data
Dropbox moves 90% of its data off Amazon AWS, in favor of its own private cloud. Dropbox built its own, custom storage servers, to store half an exabyte or more, mirrored across three regions.
Sometimes, you get so big that public cloud pricing doesn't make sense any longer. But building those servers from scratch and moving all that data sound like an enormous undertaking.

Unsurprisingly, Dropbox to shutter Mailbox and Carousel, focus on businesses
Dropbox has abandoned its efforts to take over your smartphone. The company announced today that it will shutter two applications, Mailbox and Carousel, in 2016 as a result of its new focus on helping workers collaborate with each other. But it's hard to see how chasing business workers instead of targeting consumers will change Dropbox's core problem: That it remains a feature convinced it was a product, then a startup, and then a company that's raised more than $ 1 billion.
This isn't a new argument. People have been saying that Dropbox is a feature instead of a product almost since the company's file storage service first debuted. There's no denying the convenience afforded by that service. Being able to trust that files would appear on multiple devices, or on the Web, without having to carry around a bunch of flash drives filled with important documents was huge. But was it a strong enough lodestone for a billion-dollar company to be built on?
In December 2009, Steve Jobs warned Dropbox co-founders Drew Houston and Arash Ferdowsi that Apple would compete with their service if they declined an acquisition offer. He kept that promise. Apple released iCloud in 2011. Google followed it with Google Drive in 2012. Microsoft introduced several cloud tools. And other companies like SpiderOak, Box, and Amazon introduced tools that either competed indirectly with Dropbox or operated on a much different scale.
Dropbox's core feature is still as amazing as it was a few years ago. It's just that no-one can purchase a smartphone, tablet, or laptop without being prompted to use a competitive service. Using an iPhone? Set up iCloud. Created a Google account because of that new Android tablet? Use Google Drive. Replacing that Windows ME-running hunk of plastic with a newer PC? Here, try OneDrive. People can use sync services without ever having to know that Dropbox exists.
The same is true of the services being shuttered. Mailbox was ahead of its time: I remember downloading the app, swiping through my inbox, and wondering how I could ever live with another email app. But then it languished, seemed to be ridden with bugs that were never fixed, and I switched to Gmail's official app. Other companies improved their email apps all the while, with Apple updating Mail, Gmail tinkering with Inbox, and Microsoft debuting a brand-new Outlook.
Carousel also worked fine. But that was exactly the problem — it was just fine. All the cloud services that Dropbox competes with for file synchronization also offer photo storage services. Products like Google's new (and popular) Photos service takes it a step further by automatically sorting images and generating montages. Carousel doesn't do anything that iCloud, Photos, and other services don't do. So why bother setting up a service that can, and now will, disappear any moment?
Now, Dropbox will focus on its business customers. That begins with services like Paper, a collaborative writing app, and new-yet-boring features like PDF-editing. Are either of those going to be enough to convince businesses to choose Dropbox over competitive services that do the same things? (There are many, like Google Docs and the Microsoft Office suite, for starters.) The company seems to think that focusing on these apps and shuttering its consumer products might help.
No matter what happens, you have to give Dropbox credit. It survived after Jobs warned it about its prospects in 2009. Then, when Farhad Manjoo wrote in 2012 that Jobs was right, Dropbox kept moving along. Now, three years after that, the company is in the same position. Critics keep saying it's a feature, and Dropbox keeps proving them wrong — or delaying the inevitable. The question is which.

Dropbox and Adobe partner to make PDF editing less annoying
The PDF is the cockroach of file formats. Long after civilization has ended, an evolved form of one of the planet's hardiest insects will attempt to read a PDF containing everything Homo sapiens learned before it went extinct. And it will not be able to do so because it's using an outdated version of Adobe Reader.
Alright, so it might not be as dramatic as all that. But there is a certain sense of dread associated with PDFs: Even though many of us have to send them, I don't think anyone's ever particularly excited about having to work with them. Which is why Dropbox and Adobe have partnered up to make PDFs a little less terrible.
The partnership makes Dropbox the back-end for Adobe's PDF-reading apps on Mac, PC, iOS, and Android. The desktop integration is available now; iOS will come next, then it'll eventually make its way over to devices running Android. In doing so, it makes PDF transfer a little bit less of a hassle for office workers.
Dropbox can already open PDFs in the company's mobile apps. But you can't edit them (beyond renaming them, which is all but useless), which means they have to use other applications. Soon, instead of having to open Dropbox, find a file, then send it to another app, you'll see everything right inside Adobe's app.
Here's how Thomas Hansen, Dropbox's global vice president of sales and channels and a former Microsoft executive, explains the partnership's benefits:
This means you can do more with your PDFs, wherever you are. You won't lose time waiting to get back to your computer to redline or electronically sign a contract, or add feedback to a design mock. And no more printing out a PDF, writing comments on it, scanning it, and emailing it as an attachment. Instead you'll be able to open a PDF from Dropbox and edit it using the Adobe apps, then save and share your work easily through Dropbox.
That makes sense for mobile devices. But the integration on desktop is far less interesting. It's not that inconvenient to locate a Dropbox file on a PC or Mac, and if you're using a Mac you already have Apple's PDF-handling app installed. It seems like this announcement was rushed out before its best part was ready.
Still, it could make things easier for some people who use Dropbox and Adobe Acrobat Reader (who knew they added the "Acrobat" in the middle there?) instead of any other combination of file synchronization service and PDF editor. The PDF is here to stay — we might as well take improvements where we can.

It's time to revisit Apple buying Dropbox
Dropbox once told Apple's Steve Jobs that it wasn't for sale, but now might be a good time to change its tune.
The bottom's dropped out of Dropbox's market. In 2011, it was invaluable. But now, in 2015, it's clunky — an unnecessary step that feels a bit too far removed from the dozen or so apps we use regularly. Dropbox is decently integrated, but it doesn't feel like enough now, when we can easily send files through interoffice chat and collaboration platforms like HipChat and Slack that do much more than file-sharing. While many individuals did (and still do) use Dropbox for sharing photos and big, totally legal files, Dropbox is largely for business, used by colleagues to exchange big folders and files. In fact, Dropbox says that 60 percent of its basic and pro users use Dropbox primarily for business.
It's vital to businesses, this service of making file-sharing easy. Unfortunately for Dropbox, file-sharing is just a portion of the connected service suite that digital work today requires. To put it simply, Dropbox is underpowered for 2015. And given it's incredibly (read: actually insane) high valuation, that's a big ol' $ 10 billion problem.
A better solution than iCloud
While we're on the subject of services that just don't quite pull their weight in 2015, let's chat about iCloud.
My mom calls me all the time to ask if a photo she mistakenly deleted is in iCloud. I tell her what I've told everyone else who has ever asked me anything about iCloud: "I have no earthly idea."
I don't know what's in my iCloud. 22.1GB worth of miscellaneous things, apparently, but I don't actually know what makes up all of those mysterious gigabytes (edit: I checked — it's a lot of photos, Contacts, and maybe half of my total Reminders), and I definitely don't know how I would go about retrieving any of that purportedly precious data in the event of a catastrophic iDevice meltdown. I'm confident that I could figure it out, but I haven't attempted it.
I don't use iCloud at all. And that's because iCloud is garbage. It's only recently graduated from "glorified landing page" to "somewhat usable interface", but it remains a part of my Apple life that I feel no real need to interact with at all, unless something goes absolutely and horrifically wrong and I'm forced into the iCloud interface as a data Hail Mary.
To be fair, I'm glad that iCloud exists. I'm glad that Apple's making an effort to save the data that I'm too stubborn or lazy to back up. I'm glad that it's trying to save me from myself. Or maybe it's just trying to save a Genius or two from having to explain to a customer that all of his photos are gone because he carelessly dropped his iPhone 6 Plus into a chocolate fondue fountain. Maybe it's both.
Either way, the fact remains that iCloud is trash, even when it's helpful, and that's largely because it is so underachieving. iCloud could be better, but first it has to be useable, and maybe that's where Dropbox comes in. Because iCloud, too, is underpowered.
When Dropbox founder Drew Houston met with Steve Jobs in 2009 to talk about Dropbox, Houston famously shut down Jobs' approach to buy the file-sharing service. According to a report from Forbes in 2011, Jobs let Houston know that he was making something of a mistake banking on Dropbox's service to sustain a company, telling him that Dropbox was "a feature, not a product."
Now, it sort of feels like Jobs was right. Dropbox doesn't feel like it's future trajectory is up. In fact, it kind of feels like the rain has started and the Dropbox is getting soggy. Dropbox isn't going to get much further without becoming easier, more meaningful and high-powered. Dropbox isn't going anywhere but down as a standalone app, but if it can find a way to make itself a part of our lives the way it began to before iCloud, Google Docs, Box and the rest, it might stand a chance. And, well, if there's one company that's become the leading expert on making itself an essential part of daily life, it's Apple.
Theoretically, if Dropbox were to see the soft, brushed aluminum, backlit writing on the wall and decided that it wanted to take Apple's offer six years later, would Apple even want to buy?
Well, yeah. It should, anyway.
Tiptoeing into enterprise with iPad Pro
Apple wants a bigger piece of the enterprise pie. iPad Pro proves that. Dropbox has a very solid base of enterprise users (for now), and perhaps a more robust file sharing, synching and management platform for the super-sized tablet would tip the business scales in favor of Apple's answer to the Surface Pro.
Furthermore, as previously discussed, Apple's iCloud leaves a lot to be desired–bringing in the world's most valuable cloud service is far from the worst idea Apple's ever had (a right that I have assume is reserved for the rollerball on the Mighty Mouse). Beyond that, Apple could really benefit from something of an ecosystem overhaul. Between iPads, Apple Watches, iPhones, Apple TVs and iMac/MacBook/MacBook Pros, many people now find themselves with more than one iDevice. The better those devices communicate and sync data, files, photos, contacts, etc., the more things "just work", as Apple likes to say.
Perhaps best of all, never again would a Genius have to try to explain what the hell iCloud actually does.

6 Minute Meals & Deal. Alicia Vitarelli reports during Action News Mornings on October 3, 2018.
*This meal is a great weekday meal choice because the slow cooker does the majority of the work for you and all you have to do is some quick prep and assemble when you get home from work.
Combine garlic, onions, cinnamon, cumin, peppers, salt, and oil in food processor. Pulse until blended. Place lamb in slow cooker, cover with marinade, add stock and cook on low for 8 hrs.
Chef Tip: You can buy cabbage pre-shredded. A cole slaw mix would work.
1.	Toss cabbage with lime and salt in a bowl.
2.	In another bowl, mix sour cream, mayo, citrus, cumin, garlic and salt.
3.	Heat tortillas in cast iron skillet.
4.	Remove tortilla from grill or skillet. Add some crema then some lamb and cabbage. Top with a little more crema and enjoy!
Offer good Wednesday, October 3rd.
