Take what follows as a suggestion. Feel free to modify it in any way you think appropriate given the group with which you work. When you've finished, go to the main activity.
Without saying anything about it, give each student a written copy of the Old English/Anglo-Saxon version of The Lord's Prayer (available online at http://everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=913000). Ask them to try to decide in what language the words on the paper they've received are written. After a minute or so, take possibilities and facilitate the development of a consensus answer, but do not tell students if they are correct.
Again without saying anything, give each student a written copy of the complete or partial Middle English version of The Lord's Prayer (available online at http://everything2.com/index.pl?node=The Lord's Prayer: Middle English). Again, have them try to reach a consensus on the language in which it is written.
If your students have not yet discovered it, point out that the first paper contains The Lord's Prayer as it was written in English at about 1000 CE (common era); while the second contains the same prayer as it was written in English at about 1400 CE. You might explain that you are using The Lord's Prayer because it was one of the first things written down in English, and that it was repeatedly written in whatever was then contemporary English right up to the present. Studying its various incarnations therefore gives us a good look at how English has changed over the last thousand years.
As the second version is much closer to modern English, it should be more easily recognizable. Ask students to what they'd attribute the visible changes in this 300-400 year period. Those with any background in European history should recognize that the Norman conquest of Britain in 1066 would be a good first answer. You can explain that victors in war often impose their language on the defeated enemy. In this case, it is evident that English became Frenchified, and to a large extent remains so to this day. However, war is not the only thing that causes languages to evolve. English kept changing. To illustrate, you can show students The Lord's Prayer in Modern English (available online at http://www.global.org/Pub/LordsPrayer.asp), both Early Modern (from the King James Bible) and Late Modern (your choice from the available selections).
With this as a background, you can point out that historians constantly deal with changing language in their efforts to understand the past. The activity they are about to undertake is designed to give them practical experience in this area.
Should you want to use oral versions of the Old or Middle English Lord's Prayer, either in place of or as supplements for the written versions above, they are available on the audio recording Documentary History of Broadcasting: 1920-1950: Radio Before Television from Smithsonian Folkways Recordings. Available on both CD and cassette (catalog #F-9171), this recording is a gem. It excerpts two programs from the Ways of Mankind, a series designed to explain key anthropological concepts to laymen. The shows on this recording deal with language (A Word in Your Ear) and art (I Know What I Like). Track 2 contains the Old and Middle English versions of The Lord's Prayer, as well as other tidbits relevant to this activity. If you want to present an audio recording of the King James version, find Kate Smith's rendition. It is great.
The Lord's Prayer read (and written) in Old English is also available for online listening. To hear the entire prayer, visit http://www.pastperfect.org.uk/sites/yeavering/archive/prayerclip.html.
It is a fascinating tale. Students will find it hard to believe that one was subject to execution for translating the Bible. If you want to listen to an exceptional interview with Bobrick, you can hear Terry Gross discuss the book with him on a Fresh Air program originally broadcast on April 18, 2001. Pay especially close attention to Terry's question at 25 minutes into the interview, and Bobrick's answer. The battle over the Bible is clearly not over, and Terry's question shows why.
On July 25, 2001, Bobrick was interviewed by Ray Suarez on The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer. You can read a transcript of that interview. You may also watch it in streaming video via a link on the transcript page.
On July 26, 2001, Paul O. Williams wrote a crystal clear overview of Bobrick's book in The Christian Science Monitor.
Bobrick's book is written for adults. If you're looking for a young adult version of part of his story, Scott O'Dell's The Hawk That Dare Not Hunt By Day should fill the bill. It is an action-packed mystery novel built around the life of William Tyndale.

After the huge success of her first perfume launch Delta by Delta Goodrem in 2017, it's hardly surprising the Aussie beauty wanted to dip her toes into the perfume world once again. This time the singer collaborated with the Bondi Perfume Company to create her new scent, Dream by Delta Goodrem. Recently, we sat down with Delta for an exclusive interview to ask her about her new fragrance, the products that help her get out of a funk and the best beauty hacks she's discovered over her years in the spotlight.
"Because I've been so fortunate to work with makeup artists from such a young age, I have definitely learnt a lot. My favourite thing is highlighting, especially with sparkly shades. I've definitely paid attention to where they put my makeup and what suits me. I grew my eyebrows because I had really skinny ones when I first started out, because that was the trend. I remember a photographer telling me that I should grow my brows out as it would make a big difference to my face and [it did]. Little tips like sparkles on my eyes – I really enjoy that. My main beauty tip though is to make sure you always wash your face. I can't go to bed with makeup on, or it's very rare for me to do that – I'd have to have had one too many wines to not take off my makeup!"
Dream by Delta Goodrem is available exclusively at Chemist Warehouse, My Chemist and My Beauty Spot.

Player stories, The Sims Wiki
The Sims Wiki:Player stories
Discontinued Feature
This community feature no longer exists. Please use the Fanon namespace for player stories from now on.
Player Stories was a user-oriented feature which specifically enabled users – anonymous and registered – to write their own stories about particular Sims across The Sims Wiki. The feature and its policy were created on
Everyone plays The Sims series differently. Not only is it a game without an ending, it's a game in which you don't have to follow a plot.
As of August 24th 2012, the Player Stories feature had been completely removed. Discussions about the elimination of Player Stories can be found in Community Discussion archive 16, started on June 4, 2011. At the first discussion, the result was not to delete the Player Stories, and no actions were taken. The discussion was brought up back on June 10, 2012, as in Community Discussion archive 19. The conclusion was an eventual deletion, which was to set up a deletion date so users could preserve their stories if they wanted to.
A blog was created to announce this discussion, as well as to make other users notified. On July 24, 2012, a decision was finally made up to delete all Player Stories permanently in 1 month after. Eventually, the Player Stories had been all removed and the community had been notified.
The Fanon namespace succeeded the Player Stories, and replaced it as a feature to enable users to still share stories of their own or premade Sims, in a similar style to the mainspace articles.

Q: Using HTML form field in Javascript I'm designing a website for a client who wants a 'Store Locator', but whats the user to be able to specify the distance from their postcode. To do this, I will use a simple HTML dropdown list, but how do I get this result into my Javascript equation?
This my HTML
<select name="radius" id="radius">
  <option value="5">5 Miles</option>
  <option value="10">10 Miles</option>
  <option value="15">15 Miles</option>
  <option value="20">20 Miles</option>
</select>

And this is my javascript bit which assigns the variables
var parameters = 'lat='+ location.lat() + '&lng=' + location.lng() + '&radius=' ?

What do I need to put after '&radius=' to use the result of my list as the radius variable?

A: To get the selected value of a select input
document.getElementById('radius').value

so your string would be
var parameters = 'lat='+ location.lat() + '&lng=' + location.lng() + '&radius=' document.getElementById('radius').value

A: To get the selected value from the select field you could use:
var radius = document.getElementById("radius").value;

var parameters = 'lat='+ location.lat() + '&lng=' + location.lng() + '&radius=' radius

A: See Get selected value in dropdown list using JavaScript?.
Instead of using getElementById, you are going to use getElementByName() to pull in the element.

Q: What is the difference between Select Frame & Switch Window in RF? I am new with working with RF, so my question is why i have to select frame after doing switch window and changing the main focus to the new window ,
is it necessary to do select frame when I can not use it ?
Switch Window    title:TestStack    30s
Select frame    frame id

A: You don't need to use Select frame after switching to another window, unless that other window has an iframe that you need to interact with. If it has an iframe, then you have to call Select frame just like you would in the main window.

This course will examine the Bible and its interpretation and how it has affected Jewish-Christian relations through history.
We will look at the development of the two religions in the first few centuries, when the Bible played a central role in the debate between Jews and early Christians. This will follow with study of how the conflict over interpretation has continued or discontinued over the ages. An assessment will be made as to how the Bible has been used by both Jews and Christians to create a negative picture of each other and deny the validity of each other's interpretations. We will also explore evidence of positive interaction over the Bible and recent approaches in the modern encounter between Jews and Christians that address texts and ideas that have previously been used to reinforce hostility.
This will be done through examination of the role of the Bible in Jewish-Christian relations from its earliest period, including the New Testament, the work of the rabbis and church fathers, the medieval mystical tradition and the reformation. Then we will move into the contemporary era, dealing with modern interpretation of Scripture and readings of the Bible since the Holocaust. In this way, the course will trace the development of the Jewish-Christian relationship based on the Bible, but, most importantly, examine evidence of positive interaction alongside issues of conflict.
One for me and Tom to do in the future?

Ken Jim (@suitforcourt) and I (@casadisartoria) were honored to host a special event on Thursday, April 27th at Spier and Mackay in Toronto. The event was the culmination of our efforts to bring together the community we interact with on a daily basis in the ultimate Toronto thread on Styleforum, and I'm happy to have the chance to share some pictures from the Styleforum Toronto meetup.
Ken was looking for someone to help plan a local meet-up and I heeded the call. Toronto's menswear scene is vibrant and growing rapidly, but there just aren't enough communal events in a given year to bring people together. This was our chance to get folks to come out and share their passion for menswear and lifestyle, classic or otherwise – and to showcase their penchant for style!
Spier and Mackay, a Styleforum regular and an Affiliate Vendor, graciously accepted our request to host the event. The turnout was great, albeit during an evening downpour, and everyone got a chance to put some SF handles to faces.
Although a small speck among the sartorial destinations of the world, many talented artisans and craftsmen call Toronto home. The intention of this event was to also introduce local SF members to these talented artists, and perhaps consider commissioning future pieces from them. Many travel long distances or wait for local trunk shows, which may not always be practical. If you'd like to learn more, Pedro Mendes of The Hogtown Rake has really dug deep to uncover local talents and feature them on his blog.
I'm thankful to everyone who attended and made it such a memorable evening. I will be taking the lead (along with Ken I hope) in planning similar events down the road to really bring the community together, and to introduce live demos by local artisans and craftsmen showcasing their skills.
Lastly, thanks to Spier and Mackay for hosting us. Here are some intimate moments captured from the evening.


We are excited to launch a NEW offering to support real estate professionals with a tutorial library of real estate products, solutions and services. Save time, save money and build your business with leading solutions from across North America.
This FREE library of short tutorials is brand new and will be built over time. Below are the very first ones. Come back often as we add more!


Is his the same one as the movie. I loved the movie! Enjoy!
Yes its the same one. The movie was awesome. I've been watching it lately and it made me want to read the book.
Kicking it old school! Nice 🙂 Enjoy!
I can't even hear this title without wishing I had a hot steaming plate of fresh fried green tomatoes and a glass of sweet tea of course.
You know I've never tried Fried Green Tomatoes but I've been wanting to. I've been waiting for it to warm up so I can find some green tomatoes somewhere on sale.
This is one of my all time favorite movies ever. I knew it was a book but I've never read it. I love seeing the differences between books and movies so it would be fun to read.
Me too Kim. I've been watching the movie recently and it made me want to pick up the book since there are always differences.
Okay – I'm out of the loop because I hadn't heard about the movie! Now gotta see if it's on Netflix.
I hope they have it. It's a great movie.
Oh I loved the movie. How's it going? I look forward to reading your review and/or movie comparison.
I finished the book a few days ago and they change a lot from book to movie.

Clark McAdams Clifford was a prominent Washington, D.C., attorney who served as an adviser to every Democratic president from Harry S. Truman to Jimmy Carter. He was White House counsel to President Truman, personal lawyer to John F. Kennedy, and secretary of defense under Lyndon B. Johnson. Later his reputation suffered seriously with his involvement in a scandal over the Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI).
Clifford was born on December 25, 1906, in Fort Scott, Kansas, and spent his childhood in St. Louis. He entered Washington University, in St. Louis, in September 1923. In the fall of 1925, after two years as an undergraduate, he entered the university's law school. He received his law degree in 1928 and practiced law in St. Louis until entering the navy in 1944.
Lieutenant Clifford began his career of public service in 1945 as a naval aide to President Truman. In 1946, he became special counsel to the president. Clifford played an important role in the birth of the national security system. He helped draft legislation creating the Defense Department and worked with others in the Truman administration to establish the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), the U.S. Air Force, and the National Security Council.
Clifford had been associated with Kennedy since Kennedy's days as a congressman and senator. After Kennedy's election to the presidency in 1960, Clifford assisted in the transition, helping pick members of the cabinet and other important high government officials. He also
served as a personal legal adviser to President Kennedy and his family.
During the Johnson administration Clifford advised the president on matters of foreign policy. Clifford served as secretary of defense from March 1968 to January 1969. During his short tenure at the Pentagon he was the leader of an influential group of officials who persuaded Johnson to de-escalate the Vietnam War. He argued that the burden of fighting should be transferred from the U.S. troops to South Vietnamese forces as quickly as possible.
As the years went by Clifford rose in status as an influential elder statesman. Several years after most would have begun enjoying their retirement, the 70-year-old Clifford was advising President Carter on foreign policy issues, as he continued his work with the Democratic Party and high government officials.
Despite his long-standing prominence at the top levels of government, Clifford's later years were consumed with a scandal surrounding BCCI. BCCI was founded in 1972 by Aga Hassan Abedi, a Pakistani financier who retired in 1990 owing to health problems. From the start, BCCI officials had grandiose dreams of the organization becoming a worldwide financial power, the equal of large Western banks but with special ties to developing countries. Unfortunately, the bank never had a great deal of capital and was always desperate for deposits. One of BCCI's largest customers was the Gulf Group, a consortium of shipping companies. The Gulf Group made substantial deposits to BCCI in 1972, but began borrowing from BCCI heavily after that. By 1977, BCCI's loans to the consortium had become so large that Gulf Group accounts were transferred from BCCI's London office to its Cayman Islands subsidiary to avoid British limits on the amount the bank could lend to individual customers. This deception eventually grew to involve approximately 750 accounts and a special department within the bank dedicated to carrying out the subterfuge. To cover its losses, the bank apparently resorted to a variety of schemes such as using deposits from other customers to make interest payments on delinquent loans. To add needed capital, BCCI lent money to its existing shareholders to buy more stock. The purchases artificially inflated the stock price, thereby giving the appearance of increased capitalization, but BCCI was only investing its depositors' money in the bank.
On July 5, 1991, banking regulators in seven countries—the Cayman Islands, France, Great Britain, Luxembourg, Spain, Switzerland, and the United States—seized the assets of BCCI, charging that the bank had engaged in widespread fraud over a number of years. The seizure set off a worldwide investigation that touched several U.S. government agencies, some leading figures in Washington, D.C.—most notably, Clifford—and individuals in several other agencies. The collapse of BCCI had tremendous repercussions throughout the world.
In the United States, the main issue was whether the federal government had made sufficient efforts to investigate BCCI prior to its seizure in 1991. Various federal agencies had been interested in BCCI since the late 1980s. The CIA had prepared a report in 1986 alleging that BCCI was the owner of First American Bank-shares, a major Washington bank. In 1989, the CIA prepared a report that alleged possible criminal activities conducted by BCCI, including money laundering. Questions remained about what the federal government knew of BCCI's illegal activities and when it became aware of them.
Clifford was chairman of First American and his law partner Robert Altman was president. First American was allegedly acquired in 1982 by a group of Middle Eastern investors who were using BCCI money, but Clifford and Altman said they believed that the investors were acting on their own. From 1982 to 1991, Clifford had assured federal regulators on several occasions that BCCI had no connection with First American.
On August 13, 1991, both men resigned their posts at First American. In September, Clifford testified before the House Banking Committee that he had been duped by BCCI and had not known that it had owned the controlling interest in First American during the nine years that he ran the bank.
On July 29, 1992, Clifford and Altman were indicted simultaneously by federal and New York state grand juries on charges of conspiring to defraud the Federal Reserve Board by concealing the role of BCCI in acquiring U.S. banks. At the heart of the case were allegations of an elaborate scheme by BCCI to expand illegally into the United States by purchasing First American and acquiring National Bank of Georgia. Again, Clifford and Altman assured federal, as well as state, regulators that the group of Middle
Eastern investors who purchased First American in 1982 had no ties to BCCI, and insisted that they believed the group had acted on its own. Nevertheless, Clifford and Altman were aware of BCCI's attempts to purchase other banks. In fact, both men represented BCCI when it first attempted to acquire U.S. banks in the late 1970s, and in a series of transactions in the 1980s, the two allegedly made a profit of nearly $10 million on First American stock that they purchased with loans from BCCI and later sold at a much higher price to a buyer who reportedly was subsidized by BCCI.
Following the two indictments, federal and state prosecutors tangled in a complex legal procedural drama about where or when the two would be tried. In September 1992, the federal trial was postponed, thereby allowing the New York state prosecution to proceed. But then the state trial was delayed as Clifford's lawyers tried to have the charges dropped because Clifford was in poor health. Clifford, age 86, eventually underwent quadruple bypass heart surgery, on March 22, 1993.
On March 30, 1993, the state trial of Altman began in a Manhattan courtroom. The prosecution alleged that Altman had participated in an elaborate scheme of deceit to help BCCI gain a foothold in the U.S. banking system. Altman countered that federal regulators were making him a scapegoat to deflect criticism of their own failings in the BCCI affair.
On April 7, federal prosecutors asked the judge to dismiss the charges against Clifford and Altman. Clifford's physical condition made it questionable that he would be able to stand trial and it was impossible for him to assist his attorneys in preparation for trial. The judge agreed and formally dismissed the federal charges against Clifford and Altman.
On August 14, a state court jury found Altman not guilty on four counts. Of the original eight felony charges, the judge had dismissed four during the trial, leaving the jury to deliberate on one count of scheming to defraud and three counts of filing false documents. During the trial the prosecution offered only circumstantial evidence, failing to prove that Altman was aware of BCCI's illegal activities.
After the state court acquittal, and with Clifford's health still precarious, efforts to prosecute the BCCI case in the United States ended, although it continued in other countries. No one can say for certain what happened to the $12 billion in missing depositors' funds. About one million people who lost money live in third-world countries and England. In England, depositors are expected to receive a return of 30 to 40 cents on the dollar; third-world depositors can expect even less.
In 1996, in an interview conducted by CNN as part of its 24-part documentary on the Cold War, Clifford discussed a number of topics including President Truman's reaction to Winston Churchill's Iron Curtain speech, the Truman Doctrine, the Marshall Plan, the blockade of West Berlin, and U.S. strategy during the Cold War. Clifford died at age 91 on October 10, 1998, in Bethesda, Maryland. In 2001, he was portrayed by actor Donald Sutherland in HBO's Path to War, a retelling of Lyndon Johnson's involvement in Vietnam.

The past week three flash demonstrations were carried out in an effort to keep the pressure on Wells Fargo to make a deal to keep Cobb County resident Steve Boudreaux in his home. So far, despite Steve's willingness to negotiate a very reasonable deal with Wells Fargo, the bank has been unwilling to budge. It seems they would rather see another crime attracting, neighborhood devaluing, boarded up home is his community.
After battling unemployment and struggling to make payments on his mortgage, Boudreaux applied for an emergency home loan modification to stay in his home at a rate he could afford.
Boudreaux said everything was all set to move forward until the IRS delayed in getting tax transcripts to his bank.
Wells Fargo pushed forward with a foreclosure sale, according to Boudreaux. The transcripts were delivered the day after the foreclosure sale.
It's time the banks stop holding our communities and make an effort to work with home owners to keep them in their home in these historic difficult times.
Next Tuesday Occupy Our Homes ATL and the Cobb Coalition For Change will be hosting a national call in day to Wells Fargo in an effort to pressure the bank to make a deal.
A Loan Modification is... an excellent way to stop foreclosure for anyone who wants to keep their home and can't afford their mortgage payments.

An oral agent used to induce abortions. It is typically administered for this purpose with misoprostol or methotrexate. The drug was formerly known as RU-486.
These drugs include the aromatase inhibitors, mefipristone, selective oestrogen-receptor modulators, selective progesterone-receptor modulators, GnRH antagonists, pentoxyfylline and drugs that inhibit the effects of tumour necrosis factor, [alpha]-matrix metalloproteinase, and angiogenesis.


Mysterium is a multi-sensory performance that combines the auditory, visual and olfactory senses. Piano music, colored lights, and specially designed fragrances are carefully blended to deliver a piano performance that offers the audience a deep emotional dimension. Perfumes are created by maitre perfumer Sileno Cheloni of AquaFlor in Florence. Colors and light design are a creative work by the talented American engineer Samantha Stout.
Influenced by the synesthetic concepts of the Russian composer Alexander Skrjabin, with colors associated to sounds and keys, as in his "Clavier à Lumière", the project aims at providing the audience with a new aesthetic experience. Fragrances specifically designed to interpret the piano scores will be diffused among the audience in three moments of the performance, associated with a spectrum of primary colors on stage.
This unique performance pushes the boundaries of the listening experience through the creation of a panoramic scent-scape. "Scientific studies have shown that the perception of smells – because of the proximity of the olfactory apparatus to the human limbic system – produces a powerful evocation of images and memories and amplifies the emotional experience induced by music," comments Maestro Artese.
The performance of 12 Preludes op. 11 by Alexander Skrjabin stands at the heart of the program, preceded by selected works by Debussy, Chopin, Grieg and Rachmaninov. Last section of the program includes original compositions by Antonio Artese. Inspired by Sileno's essences, the piano suite "Lakes of my Mind" is a series of inner portraits triggered by olfactory memories. "Inner Garden" (2015), performed in its world première in Palma de Mallorca on February 10, represents the multi-sensorial distillation of images, scents, and sounds of a stroll among the "Orto dei Semplici", the botanic garden in Florence.


One of the words you rarely ever hear used to describe computing lessons is compassionate but it's one of the 6 reasons why I love teaching computing.
One of the Computing projects that students do in Y7 at Fulford School is a Game Design project. Each student chooses a charity that they care about and then creates a plan for a game which will raise awareness of what that charity does. They have to sketch out a what the game will look like, how to play it and why they've chosen that charity before creating, testing and reviewing each other's games.
I find that students put loads more effort into into a game if it's connected to a cause they're passionate about than they would for some random project and I've been really impressed with the quality of the games that they've produced.
Some of the best students in that project have agreed to become ambassadors for this site. They've agreed to collect keywords and definitions for other school subjects and publish them here to help other students learn. In return, they get to choose which charities to donate money to that is raised by this site.
This site is completely free to use, but contains some "Related Content" adverts at the bottom of each page. Adverts are easily blocked in schools for students but when a teacher clicks on one of these links it will generate a small amount of money from Google's AdSense revenue which the student ambassadors can then donate.
I don't know how much they'll be able to raise but the idea is to empower students to use their tech skills to make a small but positive difference to the world around them.
More details will be published here shortly.
29th January 2019 £5 I have chosen this charity because I have always loved animals from a very young age and when i am older I want to work there and help animals. Year 7 student.
4th December 2018 £20 Christians Against Poverty is the charity that was used in an example game for the Y7 game design project. CAP provide free debt counselling and support services across the UK. Christmas can be a really stressful time for people struggling with debt but the team at CAP can offer help and support at no cost and with no strings attached.

Home Drinking Cocktails Preux & Proper Brings Flair Bartending and Frozen Daiquiris Downtown
Flair bartending and getting home safely: the two most important parts of a good night out
Photograph by Caroline on Crack
Preux & Proper Brings Flair Bartending and Frozen Daiquiris Downtown
Party like it's TGI Fridays in the '80s
Caroline Pardilla
Who knew that the space that formerly housed The Parish was perfectly suited for a New Orleans-inspired restaurant? Step inside the new Preux & Proper and you'll see that the once awkward counter by the front door is now the ideal spot to showcase six frozen-daiquiri machines and a bar. Upstairs with all of the dining room's windows open, you feel compelled to throw beads down at the passersby on Spring Street. If it wasn't so quiet in this part of town and the patrons weren't wearing so many articles of clothing, you'd be fooled.
But do the shenanigans of the notorious Bourbon Street have a place in Downtown L.A., what is considered the heart of the city's cocktail renaissance? P&P co-owner and New Orleans native Joshua Kopel thinks so. Although he understands that it's an extremely competitive market and has hired Pablo Moix (Scopa Italian Roots, The Chestnut Club) to consult on the cocktail menu, he's all about bringing that Big Easy vibe to the Broadway Theater District.
That means maybe not taking drinking so seriously and embracing the following:
Flair bartending: Kopel says half the bartenders on staff are flair bartenders. "In New Orleans, you don't get a drink, you don't get a meal, you get a show, and that's what I wanted," he says. "Envision TGI Fridays in the '80s when it was the go-to spot. If you're going to come here and you're going to spend your money with me, we're going to give you a song and a dance."
Frozen daiquiris: There are six flavors for your brain-freeze boozing pleasure: Irish Coffee, Call a Cab (watermelon), Rocket Fuel (like Sunkist), Pina Colada (coconut moonshine), Mint Julep, and Strawberry Margarita. It's $10 for 16 thick, frozen ounces, served in Styrofoam Go-Cups, which of course you can't take out of the restaurant. This isn't actually New Orleans, remember.
Preux & Proper's Category 6
Frozen daiquiri machines with six different flavors
Sazerac: rye, cognac, simple syrup, herbsaint
Drunken Watermelon: watermelon moonshine, lime juice, simple syrup
The West Side: vodka, lime, orgeat, cucumber, mint, Angostura bitter
Moonshine: Kopel comes from a family of bootleggers, so he has a special affinity for moonshine. The bar has 24 brands of moonshine, making it, according to him, the biggest moonshine collection in L.A. But he's working on growing it even more so that it's the largest on the West Coast. "We're working with brokers to get every moonshine there is out there," he says.
Preux & Proper officially opens tomorrow.

What our customers say about Team Password Manager
Who's it for
New release (7.118.217): archived passwords, PHP 7.4 support, changes in security screens, optimizations
New release: 7.118.217
Today we're releasing a new version of Team Password Manager, v. 7.118.217, with the following features:
● Archived Passwords: the same concept that is used with archived projects, but applied to passwords. Archived passwords cannot be modified. They're normally used for passwords that are no longer in use but that you don't want to delete. We've also created a new document that describes it: Archived Passwords and Projects.
● Last visited page: with this new version, when you sign in, you're taken to the latest visited page. For example, the latest password, project, etc. But if before signing in you request a specific page, like for example a bookmarked password, you'll be taken to it.
● Changes in security screens: we've made the following changes in the security screens of passwords and projects:
We've rearranged the screens in tabs, this way the screen is not too with all the fields and the help is better presented.
You can set permissions for users and groups in bulk by selecting some (or all of them). Here's how this looks:
If a group had a lot of users, you couldn't see all of them if you hovered over the "members" link and the members popover opened up. Now this popover is opened by clicking on the "members" link (instead of hovering over it) and the members list is scrollable. This way you'll be able to see all the users by scrolling down if there are many:
● We've added the sender email and name in email settings, as some email servers require it.
● Rearrange password screen action buttons: with the new "Archive" button in passwords, there was not enough space for buttons on some screens. So now a password looks like this:
● PHP 7.4 support: now Team Password Manager can be installed in systems that use PHP 7.4. Please note, though, that XAMPP 7.4.8 has some issues with the Ioncube Loader and you can't use it.
● Optimizations: we've done many optimizations in this version, but two stand out: 1) the log page is now much quicker and also the memory exhausted error doesn't happen any more, and 2) project creation was slow with systems with lots of users, now it's much quicker.
A couple of smaller things and bugs have also made it to this release, please check the v. 7.118.217 change log to review all the changes in this version.
In the upcoming days we'll be updating the language files for this new version (v.10), for languages that are not "en".
As always, we'd like to thank everyone who has contributed by suggesting new features or reporting bugs.

Hey everyone! I just came back from a lovely dinner with friend Emily - the one with the gorgeous green eyes :) We had sushi uptown at a really cute place that had a huge Buddha in it, similar to Buddha Bar, but more casual. Always love hanging out with her!
This was so exciting to see! My dads cousin is in the new NBC's show called SMASH. I watched the first episode on Monday and it's so good! I love the glamour of it. So in the pyramid of people shown, he's the 2nd one from the left (with dark hair). He plays Katherine McPhee's boyfriend ♥ He used to perform in the broadway play Mama Mia in London for several years. So happy for him!
My dad's cousin, Raza Jaffrey on a NYC cab for SMASH! Woop!
Now I'm back home & in the midst of getting ready for bed. Am exhausted from this week! Excited to sleep in tomorrow morning :) Any fun plans for the weekend? Let me know below!
Cute outfit, it's a little glam and a little casual too. What kind of watch are you wearing?


In just ten years, we've grown our base of satisfied customers to over 100 schools and canteens across primary, secondary and sixth form, bringing our unique recipe for success to each and every one of them.
We work together with schools, teachers, parents and students, tackling issues of healthy eating, organising food focus weeks and teaching students about balanced diets. We keep our own report cards and rate ourselves on what we believe is essential to our success. If we don't score top marks, we put in some extra effort to get there.
"I just wanted to pass on my huge thanks and appreciation to Chris and Susi who worked amazingly hard last night to serve us all some fantastic dishes. The food was of such an amazing standard, we were all taking pictures!! Not only was the presentation amazing, but it also tasted great too. Thanks for arranging such a great night and please pass on our thanks as this will be one dinner party I won't forget."
I just wanted to say what a great start the café team have made and how much they are valued by us all at the school. They really are part of the family! Kodie and Katie are producing lots of great food and serving it incredibly. I know they are doing the Primary as well, and that is also fantastic!
"I wanted to thank you for all the treats and the diversity of food on offer in the canteen. You always try to come up with a variety of food and the students are very lucky to have you and your team in charge of making them more curious food wise. The range of choices coincides nicely with multicultural week when all year groups are being addressed in Year Assemblies about how much diversity matters."
"The quality of the food, its presentation and the service was just incredible. It helped to make the evening even more memorable. The pride that Kodie, Katie and Anna take in their work is just incredible and they really feel like part of the WP family. They were here till 10.30 and they did not once stop smiling and being helpful. Both William Perkin and Innovate are so very fortunate. And the parents were also grateful and all commented so positively!"
"On behalf of the PE department, I would like to say a huge thank you for the magnificent spread you put on for staff last Friday, I have spoken to lots of people who all raved about the quality of the spread you put on and how professionally it was set up! Not only was the food spectacularly delicious but your staff were all so happy and bubbly which really made it a special event. Thanks again, fingers crossed for more good weather so that we can eat alfresco again soon!"
I have LOVED veggie week!
"Faves have been the spinach wrap and the lentil pot. I'm trying to loose weight and they were both healthy and tasty food options this week. Well done team, love the awareness you bring to us and students about food."
"Please pass on my thanks to all the team here at Pimlico. Since I started around 7 months ago, I think the food offering has been terrific. I see consistently good quality and organisation. Furthermore, the special theme days and end of term meals really go the extra mile. I would like to add that I hear similar comments from other members of staff here and I wanted to feedback to you my, and others appreciation."
"Thank you for the wonderful meeting yesterday. It was good to catch up, especially whilst eating such fantastic food! Since 2013 Innovate has made such a positive impact at both George Abbot School, and subsequently at Kings, providing an excellent service at amazingly competitive prices. A real success!!"
Everybody seemed to have a really good time on Friday at our Featherstone High School Barbecue - we've had positive feedback on the event. The food was fine all round and the best part in my opinion was the speed and efficiency of your service. Innovate provided a slick and quick service, inside and outside of the hall - a most pleasing element. Thanks for coming again, I think the Head was very happy to see you also."
"A massive THANK YOU to you and your lovely team for supporting our stomachs at Pimlico Academy this year but also for working with the MFL (Modern Foreign Languages) department allowing students to enjoy a variety of culinary themes whenever there has been an MFL item on the linguistic calendar. Have a well-deserved summer break."
Dear Nitin, I thought you would like to see what Phil (our Headteacher at Prospect School, Reading) put in his end of term letter to parents: "Our new caterers have settled in fantastically well. The students tell me they like the new offer and also the new bar coding system, which reduces the queuing time".
"We already have the 'Healthy School Status' so finding a provider that could continue to supply healthy options with an improved service was key. We are also keen to encourage students to try different foods, so an increased variety of meal choices was also high on our agenda. With the new 'themed' menus and prices starting from £1.10 for sandwiches, £1.00 for soup and £2.50 for a main meal and dessert, we feel Innovate has really been able to meet these needs."
"George Abbot School has a high academic reputation both within the county and nationally and we felt we owed it to the students and staff to refresh the dining facilities, to bring them up to modern standards. Innovate has completely transformed all three areas into modern cafes that wouldn't look out of place on the high street. The range of food is excellent and the fact that it is freshly made here on site, every day, is an advantage. I'm pleased to say that Innovate has certainly exceeded our expectations."
"Having struggled to identify contractors that could be relied upon to deliver an acceptable level of service in a school environment, Innovate has demonstrated on several occasions to date the ability to transform areas, and in doing so often exceed expectations."
"Having appointed Innovate, we now feel we have a catering service that we can really be proud of. The new menus and displays have gone down really well with the students. The sixth formers love their coffee bar and we are finding more and more now stay onsite at breaks, as they say it feels more like a high street café."

The truth about how a Major League Hitter grips the bat and coming from a Major League Catcher, I saw how everyone gripped their bats. This Idea that MLB hitters go up with loose grips to somehow give them more whip in the bat in not only in consistent from what I witnessed for 10 + years in the big leagues but if that was the case, you'd see those hitters have less control over their barrel, they'd miss pitches, and lose power through the hands. The truth is that the hands and grip efficiently release the power the body generates, but when used incorrectly , it's also vulnerable to lose control.
Major League Hitters don't flip flop their bat around in their grip, their number one goal for their grip is to take total control over the bat.
There are a few hitters who begin with an extremely relaxed grip on the bat but they're extremely strong individuals and as soon as the timing phase begins and the seriousness of the situation kicks in to maximize the power release and make no mistake about it…the MLB hitter has total control of his bat with a firm grip when it's time to hit the ball.

Reflections on biodiversity and the Bible
In this book of biblical reflections Eden Project Scientific Director Ghillean Prance draws richly from his experiences exploring the Amazon and many other regions, together with his knowledge of references to plants and animals in the Bible, to help us wonder at the marvels of nature and so to treat God's creation with reverence and more respect.

Christianity is often accused of asserting humanity's dominion over nature – an attitude that has led to so much environmental destruction – and of viewing it as somehow 'fallen', instead of teaching that we are merely a part of creation and that 'what we do to the earth, we do to ourselves'.
In fact, the Bible is teeming with information about plants and biodiversity and different animals and their behaviour, revealing that its writers, like King Solomon and the oracle Agur, had intimate everyday knowledge of the natural world around them and learned from it. Likewise, Jesus was a close observer of nature and was earthed in the here and now, as his parables show.
In this book of biblical reflections botanist Ghillean Prance draws richly from his experiences exploring the Amazon and many other regions – from the White Mountains of Turkey to the Hawaiian Archipelago. It is his hope that this book will move Christians to wonder at some of the marvels of nature, and so to treat God's creation with reverence and more respect. God's Word is to be read not only in the Bible, but in God's 'big book'.
Ghillean Prance is Scientific Director and a Trustee of the Eden Project in Cornwall and Visiting Professor at Reading University. He was Director of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew from 1988 to 1999, and was McBryde Professor at the National Tropical Botanical Garden in Hawaii from 2001 to 2002 and is currently McBryde Senior Fellow there.
Ghillean Prance's exploration of Amazonia included 15 expeditions in which he collected over 350 new species of plants. He is the author of twenty-one books and has published over 550 scientific and general papers. He holds fifteen honorary doctorates and in 1993 received the International COSMOS Prize and was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society. He was knighted in 1995 and received the Victoria Medal of Honour from the Royal Horticultural Society in 1999. In 2000 he was made a Commander of the Order of the Southern Cross by the President of Brazil, and in 2012 he received the Order of the Rising Sun from the Emperor of Japan. He continues to be active in research and the conservation of the tropical rainforest. He chairs the Mass Extinction Memorial Observatory (MEMO), A Rocha International, and the Development Committee of the Eden Project and is a board member of the Amazon Charitable Trust, the Brazilian Atlantic Rainforest Trust and the Exbury Gardens Trust. He is President of the Wildflower Society, Nature in Art and the International Tree Foundation.
Ghillean provides an unusual combination: deep expertise in details of the natural world, and familiarity with the biblical text. These fifty short reflections lead us on a journey through references in the Bible to plants and animals which we otherwise all too easily skip over. Under the eye of this world-leading scientist, we are drawn into a deeper appreciation of the wonders of nature and the God who brought them into being. But more than that: we are challenged to apply in our own lives the insights that these explorations reveal. An enriching book, to read once, read again, and share with others.
David Nussbaum, Chief Executive, WWF-UK
Sir Ghillean Prance's epic and enduring global career as a botanist, environmental advocate and Christian leader has been an inspiration to a whole generation of conservationists, secular and believing. Any of his writing is worth serious consideration as few bring such a wealth of experience and thought to these vital issues of how life is to continue on God's good earth at a time of such severe crisis.
Peter Harris, Co-founder of A Rocha

Compelling Reasons Why Multi-Country Exposure Is Great For You As A Student!
It's a great time to be unconventional… especially, when it comes to career choices! And, if you are planning to pursue higher studies like an MBA, it's advisable to opt for one that gives you multi-country exposure!
People often confuse multi-country education with a study programme pursued abroad. There is a telling difference between both. While studying in one foreign country has its own benefits, multi-country education offers you a unique cross-cultural experience making you more ready for a global career!
A Look At The Problems Multi-Country Educations Helps Solve!
Thanks to globalization, the demand for multi-country education is on the rise, owing to the problems it helps solve!
Ensures That Students Break Out Of The 'Traditional' Mindset!
The structure of a multi-country education programme is always focused on building skills, rather than the typical rote-learning pedagogy implemented in a traditional programme.
Given that students are expected to travel to and live in different countries, they need to be able to adapt to different cultures and teaching methodologies. This is only possible with a framework that emphasizes more on practical experiences gained by being exposed to different cultures, and the challenges that come with this exposure.
With multi-country education, students get to observe the work cultures in different countries, through their internship opportunities, and eventually build a more global identity.
This experience comes in handy when, as employees, they are well-equipped to deal with the challenges of a more global career, where they would be expected to meet different kinds of people, and conduct business successfully, irrespective of the cultural differences and the differences in the way the economies function!
With traditional pedagogies, students are rarely exposed to the most important part of workplaces and businesses everywhere - the people.
Multi-country education programmes help students develop deeper cross-border collaborations with people from diverse cultures, along with exposing them to the intricacies of the different economies, and the different ways in which business is conducted.
Multi-country education essentially tackles two aspects in a single blow - helping organizations gain smarter students with a global approach, and helping students build a better career over time!
Here's Why Multi-Country Exposure Would Be Great For You As A Student!
Multi-country programmes offer the unique benefit of experiencing the dynamics of business and life across different geographies - how different they are, as well as the interconnectedness between them! Such experiences can develop your perspective in a way that neither traditional programmes, nor international single-country study programmes can achieve.
You Get To Travel… A Lot!
Who doesn't like their passports filled up to the T with immigration stamps of different countries? As a student, the combination of travel and education can be an incredibly enriching experience!
One of the key benefits of pursuing a multi-country education is the versatile network of contacts you gain from the different countries you study in. Such connections prove very valuable over the years!
When surviving in a single foreign country can get overwhelming, imagine the stress of moving across different countries! By the end of the programme, you are sure to have a healthy of self-confidence, and the communication skills to chat up people irrespective of their nationality. Everyday experiences pose a challenge, such as hailing a cab, ordering food, or asking someone for directions.
There's also the opportunity to learn new languages. While learning them can help you survive during the course of the programme, these skills will surely come in handy later, when you are working towards building a global career!
Multi-country exposure provides an opportunity to learn and experience multiple cultures. This can also be great for more holistic education — one that develops students intellectually, emotionally, and spiritually.
Additionally, it is common for universities and educational institutions in different countries to have diverse teaching methodologies — this can be a fresh change from run-of-the-mill pedagogies that don't contribute much towards helping you stand out from the rest!
Learning from a multinational faculty exposes you to multiple, different perspectives — based on the variety of experiences they've accumulated over the years.
Not to forget the infusion of new, varied ideas and thoughts!
Imagine The Internship And Job Opportunities!
When you study through a multi-country programme, you aren't just learning in different countries, but you can also choose to work in any of these countries, if you are eligible for any particular roles. You could intern in one country, and choose to work in another - the sky's the limit!
And If You Are A Foodie, You Are In For A Treat!
It is important to note that food is synonymous with culture, not just in terms of taste, but also in the form of etiquette and ceremonies. For instance, Japan, known for its unique culture and way of life, has the famous 'tea-ceremony', which is an amalgamation of food and culture… and they do take it very seriously!
Many student organizations have food-tasting parties that introduce new students to the country's cuisine. Many universities also conduct international food fairs.
Such cross-country exposure broadens one's views and diversifies thoughts. This experience proves to be of immense value when dealing with multinational clients and challenges later in their careers.

История
История села связана с именем русского полководца генерала-лейтенанта Петра Степановича Котляревского, воспетого А. С. Пушкиным в «Кавказском пленнике». В отставке П. С. Котляревский на ссуду, полученную от государя, купил дом в имении Александрово Бахмутского уезда Екатеринославской губернии и построил храм в честь покровителя воинов — святого великомученика Георгия. Само имение Котляревского не сохранилось. Вместе с полководцем жил его отец — священник Степан Котляревский и бывший соратник — майор Иосиф Шультен. После отъезда П. С. Котляревского в Феодосию управление имением передано И. Шультену. По имени нового владельца имение Александрово получает второе название — Александро-Шультино.

"Free Bird", or "Freebird", is a power ballad performed by American rock band Lynyrd Skynyrd. The song was first featured on the band's debut album in 1973 and has been included on subsequent albums, including the unfaded-ending version of the original recording (featured on Skynyrd's Innyrds).
Studio One, Doraville, Georgia, U.S.
Humorously, the song has been referred to as the official "Modern-day Confederate Theme Song" or "Modern-day Confederate Anthem".
Released as a single in November 1974, "Free Bird" entered the Billboard Hot 100 on November 23 at No. 87 and became the band's second Top 40 hit in early 1975, peaking at No. 19 on January 25. A live version of the song reentered the charts in late 1976, eventually peaking at No. 38 in January 1977.
"Free Bird" also achieved the No. 3 spot on Guitar World's 100 Greatest Guitar Solos.
It is considered to be Lynyrd Skynyrd's signature song, is used as a finale during their live performances, and is their longest song, often going well over 14 minutes when played live.
According to guitarist Gary Rossington, for two years after Allen Collins wrote the initial chords, vocalist Ronnie Van Zant insisted that there were too many for him to create a melody in the belief that the melody needed to change alongside the chords. After Collins played the unused sequence at rehearsal one day, Van Zant asked him to repeat it, then wrote out the melody and lyrics in three or four minutes. The guitar solos that finish the song were added originally to give Van Zant a chance to rest, as the band was playing several sets per night at clubs at the time. Soon afterward, the band learned piano-playing roadie Billy Powell had written an introduction to the song; upon hearing it, they included it as the finishing touch and had him formally join as their keyboardist.
Allen Collins's girlfriend, Kathy, whom he later married, asked him, "If I leave here tomorrow, would you still remember me?" Collins noted the question and it eventually became the opening line of "Free Bird".
The song is dedicated to the memory of Duane Allman by the band in their live shows. During their 1975 performance on The Old Grey Whistle Test, Van Zant dedicated the song to both Allman and Berry Oakley, commenting, "they're both free birds".
"Free Bird" is included in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll and at number 193 in Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. In 2009, it was named the 26th best hard rock song of all time by VH1.
The song—half ballad, half up-tempo guitar solo—quickly became a staple for Lynyrd Skynyrd at their live performances. Many recognize its 5:12 triple guitar solo section that closes it out. It often turned into an extended jam session at concerts. The band consistently played it as the last song of their shows, as it was their biggest crowd pleaser. The song was a huge hit for Lynyrd Skynyrd and it remains a fan favorite to this day. It is also a classic rock radio staple.
It has become something of a humorous tradition for audience members at concerts to shout "Free Bird!" or "Play Free Bird!" as a request to hear the song, regardless of the performer or style of music. For example, during the Nirvana 1993 MTV Unplugged in New York show, a shout-out for "Free Bird!" eventually resulted in a lyrically slurred, if short, rendition of "Sweet Home Alabama". The phenomenon began earlier in the 1970s with The Allman Brothers Band's "Whipping Post" and Deep Purple's "Smoke on the Water" but then took off with "Free Bird" by 1979. On Skynyrd's first live album, 1976's One More from the Road, Van Zant can be heard asking the crowd, "What song is it you wanna hear?" The calls for "Free Bird" led into a 14-minute rendition of the song. During the beginning of the song he would make the comment about "playing it pretty" (e.g,, "Play it Pretty for Atlanta") Kevin Matthews claimed to have further popularized it in the 1980s from his Chicago-area radio show.
In recent tours, since the song returned to their set list, it has become common for the band to again close concerts with it, with photos and film of the former band members being shown on a screen behind them, while lead singer Johnny Van Zant points his microphone to the sky as a tribute. This can be seen on the band's 2003 Vicious Cycle Tour concert video.
An all-star band performed the song to conclude the final episode of The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien. Will Ferrell sang lead vocals and played cowbell, and was backed by Beck, ZZ Top's Billy Gibbons, Ben Harper, and O'Brien himself on guitar, drummer Max Weinberg and the rest of the show's house band. Some commentators found the lyrics especially resonant due to Conan's decision to leave the show rather than allow it to be aired in a later time slot.
The song has been featured in several video games, films, and television series, including Soylent Green, Westworld, The Towering Inferno, Logan's Run, The Doors, The Last Boy Scout, Soldier, Blood Diamond, Time Bandits, Spaceballs, Wayne's World, Josie and the Pussycats, Sid and Nancy, This Is Spinal Tap, Airheads, Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, Dude, Where's My Car?, Empire Records, High Fidelity, Rock Star, The Rocker, The Full Monty, Napoleon Dynamite, Idiocracy, Speed, Broken Arrow, Entrapment, Lethal Weapon 4, Exit Wounds, Mad Max: Fury Road, Guitar Hero II, Forrest Gump, American Pop, House of Cards, The Devil's Rejects, Guitar Hero: Smash Hits, Rock Band 3, ER, Everybody Loves Raymond, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Californication, Free Birds, That '70s Show, Flushed Away, Chicken Little, Elizabethtown, Toy Story 3, The Simpsons, Family Guy, The Goldbergs, and Kingsman: The Secret Service.
The song has sold 2,111,000 downloads in the digital era.
The addition of Steve Gaines returned Lynyrd Skynyrd to the formula that Ronnie Van Zant felt gave the band its first road to success with a three-person lead guitar sound. Collins' "Free Bird" solo at the end was changed so that the two guitars were complementing and challenging each other throughout that solo.
The American dance-pop group Will to Power created a medley of this song and the 1976 Peter Frampton song "Baby, I Love Your Way" in 1988. Titled "Baby, I Love Your Way/Freebird Medley", it spent one week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Molly Hatchet covered the song on their 1985 live album Double Trouble Live. It was released as a promo single. It was also covered by Wynonna Judd on the 1994 tribute album Skynyrd Frynds. The song was also covered by Bronx Casket Co. on their 2005 album Hellectric in Goth style. American jam band Phish has performed an a cappella version of the song live, most frequently throughout 1993–94 and 1998.

So many products today deny the power of Google, YouTube and other main players when it comes to traffic. But the truth remains, these are the sources of MOST of the targeted buyers and you can reach them for free, if you know how to do it.
Today Rahil Ahmed is on the show to demonstrate his Keywords Studio Pro software and how it can dramatically increase your traffic. By automatically generating highly sought search terms NO ONE else is targeting, this software eliminates your competition to give you an unfair advantage.
I SO wanted to like this but it's just too complex and that is why software developers NEED marketers to translate their vision ( and tools) into something understandable and workable for the non techy majority.
I bought it and am playing with it but, even as a seasoned marketer and SEO guy I am struggling.
'High' difficulty as opposed to 'Low' very confusing in this tool! What the heck? Totally lost. I'm sure it's great but I can't work out how to use the damn thing effectively!
Not expecting you to approve/post this comment BTW – just my 2 cents.
I was hoping to promote to my list but no way I'd do that unless I spent a week or so working it all out and providing my own video tutorials to simplify the process.
maybe I'll do that over time – but life is short and there'll be another tool along shortly.
Thanks for your 2 cents, Clive.
It definitely has a lot of options…but that's kind of the point.
If you've got some questions I can give you their support desk.
I was thinking about buying, but when he told you might not get everything they show on the sales page, I was turned of, and further more, he couldn't even tell what you would get in the front end offer, not very professional.
Thanks for these interviews Mike, they are very helpful.
I didn't say it doesn't do what it says on the sales page…I was referring to the interview and demo that we did. Some of the features we showed might be in the upsell.
The software even without the upsells is worth the price.


In honor of Moz's 55th birthday I decided to compile a list of my top 10 favorite songs from his solo career. They range from hits to deep cuts to a cover of a song by The Jam.

Two-year-old accidentally shoots and kills father in Florida
by Saheed Busari June 8, 2022 091
A two-year-old boy accidentally shot and killed his father in Florida after his parents left a loaded gun unattended, local authorities said Monday.
When police officers, alerted by a 911 call, arrived at the victim's home near Orlando on May 26, they found the child's mother Marie Ayala providing CPR to her husband, Reggie Mabry.
Law enforcement initially believed the 26-year-old, who died shortly afterward in hospital, had shot himself, but the eldest of the couple's three children later told investigators that the trigger was pulled by his two-year-old brother, Orange County Sheriff John Mina said at a news conference.
The gun was in a bag that Mabry had left on the ground and the child came across it and shot his father in the back while he was playing a video game on a computer, court documents said.
The five family members, including a five-month-old girl, were in the same room at the time of the incident.
Both parents were on parole at the time after multiple offenses of child neglect and drug use, the sheriff said.
"Gun owners that do not properly secure their firearms are just one split second away from one of these tragedies happening in their homes," Mina said.
"Now these young children have effectively lost both of their parents. Their father is dead. Their mother is in jail, and a young child has to live their life knowing that he shot his father," the sheriff added.
Such tragedies are not uncommon in the United States.
In August 2021, another two-year-old child found a gun that had been left in a Paw Patrol backpack and fatally shot his mother in the head while she taking part in a video conference.
The latest accident also comes as the debate over gun regulations rages in the country, after several deadly mass shootings in a supermarket, hospital and primary school, among others.

Here is a plane that landed a bit short of the blue ice runway that I visited when I was at Patriot Hills in 2006. Although it only drops a couple inches of snow a year, given enough years, snow does drift in Antarctica and cover things. I got a ride out to the plane on a snowmobile - very cold in the wind, which is why I had my 8000 meter jacket, down pants, and the crash helmet on, as well as thick mittens.
This Ilyushin is chartered from a Ukrainian company. The IL-76 is one of the largest planes in existence.
I've flown Kenn Borek in the Arctic. They lost one of their twin Otters a little over a year ago. Thanks for posting, Tom and Bill.
Bill, the story says that Borek has two BT-67's (highly modified DC-3) named after his daughters. The crashed one was named Lydia. Painted for ALCI, the same company that runs the IL-76.
