Review: Melvo Baptiste has been a big part of the Glitterbox story to date. He's not only a regular behind the decks at the Defected-own disco brand's parties in New York, Amsterdam, London and Ibiza but also mixed their "This Ain't No Disco" compilation earlier in the year. Here he serves up another cheery, party-starting three-disc mix that gleefully joins the dots between original disco and boogie (see killer cuts by the Emotions, Advance and Lee Curtiss), recent remixes of vintage dancefloor cuts, and the cream of the current nu-disco and disco-house crop. It's a familiar formula but one that Baptiste gets the best from, in no small doubt due to a mix of flawless mixing, superb tune selection and a love of life-affirming, vocal-laden songs.


Lets assume you have bought your boat and unpacked the box. Now you want to try it out and of course you need water. But water alone is not enough. You also need a bit of space to move round. For this problem Linden Lab and a number of private estate holders created back in 2008 the Blake Sea. A large area of connected sims which in part permit you to build, or in this case rezz a boat.
A good starting point is the Starboards Yacht Club in Hollywood. This place is owned by MarkTwain, one of the driving forces behind sailing in SecondLife. This link here will only work if you have already an installed SecondLife viewer. If not you need to make an account at www.secondlife.com. The Club is located right at the edge of the Blake Sea.
If you interested to read more on the background and history of the Blake Sea read this blog written by MarkTwain.
Of course there are many other clubs and places where you can rezz your boat. For instance in the Fruit Island Training Center which is part of a large private estate named Eden and Fruit Islands. Over 150 regions all connected and freely accessible. On this region you can also learn more about basic sailing techniques.
Also you will find many harbours in SecondLife where you can rent a slip to park your boat. Prices depend on the amount of prims you need for your boat.
A good example is Mango Club & Marina which is a nice community and professionally managed. We will talk more about places to rent here.
Over time you will learn about other places and clubs where you can rezz a boat. Of course joining one of the many groups in SecondLife helps a lot to find your way around.
So you rezzed your new boat and now its time to start sailing. But how does this boat start, how do you get it moving. This is covered in another section of these blogs.
Actually every LL region in Blake Sea has in the North-East corner a parcel of 2300m2 with build rights, meaning you can rezz your boat in any of these parcels. You can easily find them if you look at your mini-map with property lines switched on (RM>Show>Property lines). Simply stand on the sea floor of that parcel and drag your boat out. Most boats will immediately float up to find water surface. If not, just drag it up or sit in it.
In Fruit Islands you can rezz your boat almost everywhere.

>> An independent tribunal has rolled dozens of Russians athletes caught in the Olympics doping scandal, cannot compete this years winter games. The court of arbitration for sport is the highest judicial body in the world for athletes, and made the decision to dismiss 47 appeals from Russians athletes and coaches on the same day as the games opening ceremony.
>> The CAS arbitrators have considered that the process created by the IOC to establish an invitation list of Russian athletes to compete as Olympic athletes from Russia could not be described as a sanction, but rather as an eligibility decision.>> The Russians had appealed their exclusion from the games by the International Olympic Committee over the 2014 games doping scandal.
Reuters Carlos Droman is following the story from Pyeongchang.>> What it means is that, now this is an end to the Russian doping saga, and the possible participation of some other Russian athletes at the Olympic games. Given that the IOC has selected 169 carefully screened athletes with no doping past, to invite them to compete at the games as the Olympic athletes from Russia, because Russia has officially been banned from the games.
>> The Russians competing are technically independent athletes even with the uniform, and they're considered neutrals. CAS's decision has been welcomed by the IOC after bad blood last week when the court overturned a ban 28 Russians who had no prior doping record and said there wasn't enough evidence against them.
Russia's Deputy Prime Minister called Friday's decision understandable but disappointing.

Sharing Our Son's FASD Diagnosis with Him
Posted byAb January 21, 2023 January 21, 2023 Posted inADHD, adoption, FASD, gratitude, love, Parenting, Resiliency, wellbeingTags:diagnosis, FASD, gratitude, Parenting, Resiliency, special needs
There are crucial conversations in life that stick out vividly long after they've happened.
Coming out when I was 14; telling my parents I was moving out; our wedding vows; the adoption worker telling us we were matched with T.
Over the Christmas break, I had two more: one that was planned and another that was unexpected.
A few days before New Years, I drove to my mom's to deliver the news my sister had suddenly passed away that morning.
That was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do.
In comparison, sharing T's diagnosis of fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) two afternoons before seemed like a walk in the park.
The anticipation was daunting.
We had wanted to tell him in the summer vacation before the new school year started but we decided to keep summer light.
We were then going to tell him in the fall, but my sister's cancer took a turn for the worse and she moved in with us.
We decided Christmas break was going to be it – no more delays.
My sister was admitted to the hospital on Christmas Day, so it created some privacy in our home to share the news with T two days later.
It was the late afternoon, after a very relaxed day at home of play, play and more play.
I was resting in our room, when the hubby came in to lie down too – and not soon after, T came in and sandwiched himself right between us.
So much for my nap, I thought.
Then without a heads up to me, the hubby just went right into it.
He asked T if he knew what alcohol was. And T said he did not.
He briefly explained what it was and said that his mom had drank while he was in her tummy.
Then he asked T if he remembered being taken to Surrey Place a year ago to meet with the doctor (psychologist) to play games and answer questions.
T said he did and the hubby explained it was a series of tests that helped us learn that T had FASD.
I then said that a lot of people and kids have FASD – and it's what happens when the baby's brain is exposed to alcohol while they're in the tummy.
We said that for him, FASD means he is hyperactive and has a hard time sitting still.
As I said this, he was squirming and doing his "fish worm dance" on the bed.
I explained that it also means he has a hard time with controlling his impulses.
As I said this, he was kicking me gently on my leg.
I also said that he has big emotions and FASD means that he has a hard time controlling those big emotions at times.
Lastly, I said FASD also means he has a hard time focusing at times – like doing his work in the noisy and busy classroom.
Funnily, he then went down to get a banana as I was in the middle of explaining this.
We told T that FASD is very common and that lots of people have it.
He then asked if we had it.
After we said no, he then asked if his cousin A has it and if that's why she jumps around uncontrollably (stims) sometimes.
We explained that she has autism and that while it is different from FASD, there are a lot of similar things to think about.
He asked if that's why he digs his hands and we said, yes, it's probably related to him stimming, in the same way his cousin jumps around.
We told him FASD is nothing to be embarrassed about and he immediately responded that he's not embarrassed.
I love how he said that so quickly and with such conviction.
We told him he has so many strengths – he's bright, caring, funny, curious – and that these strengths will help him overcome the challenging parts of FASD.
We said that FASD is what makes him him and we are so lucky to be a family.
We ended off by saying that it's a lot of info we just shared with him and that we will unpack it together because we're a team and that he can ask us questions or share his thoughts anytime he wants.
To be honest, it was not quite how I imagined it going. I had it so planned and scripted it my head and this just felt so spontaneous and sloppy.
On the one hand, I kinda wished the hubby gave me a heads up he was going to launch into it.
On the other hand, it felt so cathartic to finally get it out there.
There is so much to unpack over the next few weeks, months and years for T and with T – but the seed has been planted.
I genuinely believe this will benefit him in the long run and help him understand his day to day and his interactions with the world.
During the latter half of our conversation, he came to give us both a big hug and told us he loved us.
When I asked for another hug, he told me to go away because "your breath stinks!"
Yup, T is T and we wouldn't have him any other way.

TCKlaire says:
You handled that so beautifully and it's great he asked questions!
Thank you. We are thankful it worked out the way that it did. The questions are great and tell us he's getting what we're saying. 🙏🤞🏻
What a perfect age to explain this to T! He may have FASD but he is still like all other kids with the bad breath comment! 😂
Thanks Diane. And yes, he keeps us grounded with his candor. 😆
Good for you and the hubby for telling T about his FASD diagnosis. There's never a perfect time to have these types of conversations. It's funny that no matter how much we prep or prepare, sometimes the conversation goes much differently than we expected. It seems like T took the initial news well and even asked a question about it, which shows that he is processing.
Thanks Linda. You're so right, we can prepare all we want and things just happen and we just gotta roll with the punches. So glad we've had the conversation and he'll lead the way with where it goes next. 😊
wanderwithfaith says:
Like how it was handled.Beautiful post!
Thank you! T loves animals and the outdoors and it is my wish that when he gets older we can travel and explore your part of the world! 😊 A safari is high on the bucket list!
ccerebrations says:
Ooof I know this has been weighing on you a lot based on your other posts. I'm glad the talk finally happened and had such good outcomes! I truly believe that is because it's a reflection of your amazing parenting.
Thanks so much Caitlyn. We're very happy we had the talk and we'll let him lead the way when he's ready to keep talking about it. 🙏 Hope you are doing ok and better!
Bama says:
Oh I can imagine the anticipation, all the things in your head in preparation for the time to tell T about his diagnosis. Then, boom! Your husband suddenly talked about it without giving you a heads up. 😅 But it must have been a relief how well things went, with T doing the worm dance et al. I love how he said he's not embarrassed. I guess this is a result of both your and your husband's love and support for him. I'm so happy for the three of you!
Thanks Bama. We had talked about how we would do it during the break but the timing still did catch me off guard. But I'm so glad he did it, because it was good to have it just out there. The "work dance" is just him squirming and not being able to sit still. 😆 We are happy for us three too. 😊 As they always they, the truth sets us free.
BACK ROADS AND OTHER STORIES says:
I love this kid! He has a lot to deal with right now, but you two are doing such a great job of preparing him. By the way, there is never a right time to have these type of conversations.
Thank you! There really isn't a right time and I'm glad the hubby just dove right into it. 🙏😊
Those candid talks can be tough, I can only imagine the build up of anxiety. Sounds like by the three of you finally discussing it, was at least a bit of a weight lifted.
Thank you! The anxiety buildup for sure is not fun and it's often worse and harder in your head than it ends up being. A weight lifted is a great way to describe it! 😊
Rltillou says:
I am in tears. Tears of happiness. You guys have such conviction and such strength in your parenting journey with T. Telling him is the eight thing in my opinion. He can now like you say figure himself out. My diagnosis has made all the difference in becoming so much more introspective! I hope to see you in the meeting next week. So excited to connect. Have a wonderful weekend! Tell hubby and T I say hi!!! And love Ts glasses! The colors are awesome!
Thank you, Rebecca. We are so happy we had this important milestone conversation with T.
We have lots of wonderful resources, like those from CANFASD and the kids book you suggested (we have our own copy now) that we'll share with him over the next while. We'll let him lead the conversations when he's ready.
And yes, I'm looking so forward to meeting you at the group call next week! 😊 We are a large and awesome group and out of respect to the others on the group, I won't talk too much. But I'm there listening with great attention. It's so great you get to be our guest! 😊

Since 1914, when it comes to electricity, the Pro's know G&G. Over 25,000 items on our shelves right in the middle of the city. Access to all materials through Manhattan's largest counter operation with commercial public parking to boot. No need to waste time picking up materials. Use our fleet of 7 trucks making early morning and mid-day deliveries to all 5 boroughs.


From his terrace, the world is blue and green — mountains and trees — or almost green. Spring is on the way: the geese are back. One, then two, alight on the river, with more still invisible but close behind. Pavilion living! The only way. With the city somewhere down there, and nature everywhere up here, he watches mist rise. River meets sky.
The calm watcher is the fourth-century scholar-artist Wang Xizhi, father of classical calligraphy and model for living an active life in retreat. He is depicted by the painter Qian Xuan, another connoisseur of reclusion, in a 13th-century handscroll at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The scroll is in "Anatomy of a Masterpiece: How to Read Chinese Paintings," a spare, studious show that offers , along with many stimulations, a retreat from worldly tumult — the religious fervor, the courtly pomp, the expressive self-promotion — that fills much of the museum.
This exhibition is also a refuge from the hurly-burly of Asia Week in New York, which is now in session and has mushroomed into three weeks this year. Dealers are in town from abroad with special shows; others arrive next week. Two art fairs are returning. Add a passel of events devoted to contemporary Asian art, along with the auctions, and the situation is clear: a marathon stretch of looking, judging, sorting, tsk-tsking and oh-mying, not to mention wheeling and dealing. Naturally, the urge to get away from it all can be strong.

Still gives me shivers. Thanks Ernesto - almost as good as being there.
I woke up excruciatingly early this morning—it's as if my internal clock was pulling me back to New York. This is my first year being away from NY on September 11 – it is a bittersweet transition. Staring out into the tranquil pines of the Berkeley Hills – "The City" seems so very far away, and I simultaneously miss the cacophony and am content to commemorate from afar. CNN is maudlin and the US open is showing tennis clips—life goes on. I can hardly believe it has been three years. It feels like yesterday, it files like another lifetime ago. I have changed so much, NY and the world has changed even more. Innocence lost, lives lost, a constant dull drumming. My friend and colleague Anil Dash has also recently relocated from NY and he has very eloquently summed up my feelings. If you haven't lived through it - you never can truly understand it. Every year I see the faces of the people I connected and bonded with on the days and weeks following 9/11 and I relive some of the most difficult images, moments, and conversations from my volunteer stint. I wrote about it two days after the event and I re-read it every year.
September 11th will also always be linked to the one-year anniversary of my father's death. At a time when I would have started to move forward and look ahead it yanked me back into that strange emotional limbo of loss and mourning. September has always been a month of change and renewal – Rosh Hashanah, a new school year, the smell of autumn in the air. Before 2000 it was a softly bittersweet month. Summer was over, but a new year was beginning. Now that soft transition is gone—it is a wrenching jarring reminder.
Only now, three years later – with perspective on both events, do I realize the deep impact this linkage has had on my life. My father was a man who believed in community first. He believed in doing the right thing and he demonstrated this daily. I dealt with my shock that day by volunteering at Ground Zero and although my intense daily volunteer work ended a few weeks later - I did not emotionally leave for months. I see now that in some strange way it was a way to stay connected to my father and climb out of the depression I felt after his death. I grew up twice on September 11th – no longer Daddy's little girl, no longer an innocent protected American.
So, from across the country – I send each of you my thoughts and prayers. Take care of yourselves, I may be in California but my heart and soul is in NY.

Verizon Catches Data Wave
LR Mobile News Analysis Light Reading 9/29/2003
Verizon Wireless has announced the commercial launch of a third-generation (3G) wireless data network but is being extra cautious in deploying the service, launching it in just two cities to test the water before a national rollout (see Verizon Offers BroadbandAccess).
The new service, dubbed Broadband Access, is available in San Diego and Washington and offers remote workers wireless data at speeds up to 2 Mbit/s, or about 16 times faster than its existing CDMA2000 1X network, Verizon claims.
"We have an embedded base of enterprise customers in these markets that we can get immediate feedback from," says Andrea Linsky, spokeswoman for Verizon Wireless. Computer consulting firm, Computer Sciences Corp. (CSC) (NYSE: CSC) is using the service, as are university students and real estate agents in those regions.
To get the service, which costs $79.99 a month for unlimited access, a customer must purchase a Verizon Wireless PC 5220 card for his or her laptop. These cards are manufactured by Qualcomm Inc. (Nasdaq: QCOM) and resold by Verizon. Qualcomm will manufacture additional access devices, including cards, modems, and handheld mobile devices for the carrier, should the service take off.
CDMA2000 1xEV-DO (1X evolution-data optimized) 3G technology (the next generation of CDMA2000 1X) is already in use in other parts of the world, where carriers including SK Telecom (Nasdaq: SKM) and Telecom Italia Mobile SpA (Milan: TIM) are seeing plenty of demand for wireless data services (see Wireless Data Rakes in Revenues).
"SK Telecom has a million users using this technology already, which is very promising," says Verizon's Linsky. It supports VPN connections as an extension of a corporate LAN, which allows users to work from any location with the same speed, security, authentication, and data protection as if they were working from their offices, she says.
On the OSS front, Verizon is pitting two of its suppliers, Nortel Networks Corp. (NYSE/Toronto: NT) and Lucent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: LU), against each other in somewhat of a bakeoff as part of the commercial launch. Nortel is supplying the software to upgrade Verizon's CDMA metro cell base stations, radio network controllers (RNCs), and element management system for San Diego, while Lucent is supplying exactly the same software, but for the Washington area.
Verizon declined to tell Boardwatch how much it cost to upgrade its network to offer this service but says it will monitor the service for three to six months before deciding whether to extend it to other cities.
Analysts say that should Verizon Wireless expand in California, where more than 20 percent of its 34.5 million customers live, it would take an additional nine to 12 months and as much as $200 million to upgrade the more than 1,000 cell phone towers in just the L.A area, in order to handle the higher speeds.
AT&T Wireless Services Inc. (NYSE: AWE) and Cingular Wireless expect to launch similar services by the end of this year.

Okay.. I don't know how to say anything like "number"
So Spanish is as exotic as I can get..
This one is MY camel.
perched it on the vintage drum ornament I thrifted over a year ago.
In fact, the camel, himself, was mostly done for 13 months.
He merely lacked tail, eyes, and hump warmer.
But today he is Finished.
He's part of a series, but the rest of the critters don't even have their patterns drafted yet.
so in a way, this project is far from over.
Is It Okay to celebrate the finishing of stages?
Okay, just look at his full profile.
Now he needs a name.
Go on... Let's hear the suggestions!
Nice! Does he have to be a "he"? How about Pamela the Camel-a?
good point... doesn't have to be a he.
Pamela The Camel-a is cute!
Since I don;t know any really good Bedouin names, I'm thinking he could be named Lawrence (as in "of Arabia").
You could call your camel Taqsim (pronounced Tok-seem) - it's a nifty bellydance move and a Turkish term for improvisation. Super cute camel!
Adorable! Isn't Pamela Camel one of Bill Peet's characters? I vote for the name Mus'ad.
Wow! Thanks for the Arabic Lesson!
I figured Arabic, Farsi, or Hebrew could work.
Gosh, I had no idea I'd been neglecting my blog buddies for so long! I love this!

Tyrese Gibson says doctors say that there is nothing more that can be done to save his mother, who is currently hospitalized in a coma.
The singer/actor called on fans three days ago to pray for his mother, Priscilla Murray, who is hospitalized with Pneumonia and COVID-19. She was placed in an induced coma with hopes of recovery but by Wednesday, her health appeared to deteriorate as her chance of survival grew low.
Tyrese shared the devastating news on his Instagram account.
"The Doctor sat in this chair and just broke my heart by telling me there's pretty much nothing else that can be done to turn things around….. I paused, and in my most sincere voice, I asked him…. Have you ever heard of a man named Jesus Christ? Nothing is impossible for him…… Ha paused and couldn't respond…!" Tyrese said, sharing his faith for a miracle.
On Sunday, the Fast 9 actor shared that he received terrible news about his mother while he was on set filming.
"My mother is in a coma, in ICU, with Pneumonia and she caught COVID. … I need prayers, the most sincere prayers from you prayer warriors," he said to his Instagram followers.
"My mother is in a coma, in ICU, with Pneumonia and she caught Covid they got her so sedated she can't breathe or even eat on her own……. This has been going on all week I haven't posted [ I'm doing it this time cause I feel helpless this is my cry for help…. I need prayers the most sincere prayers from you prayer warriors…. Hold on mother I'm there by your side in a few days….. God is able to do things, he's pulled you OUT of a coma before….. Oh God I seen the light things have been going so well," he added.
The lengthy post went on to call on his followers to pray for his mother's restoration.
Tyrese's mother, who goes by her maiden name Murray, raised him and his three older siblings as a single parent in California. Gibson and his mother have a close relationship.
On Thursday, Tyrese Gibson shared another update with his fans via Instagram. "Sorry I can't take every call or respond to every text message just please keep praying for mommy dearest I am overwhelmed by your outpouring of love…… Headed back to the hospital I just got another really bad phone call…. Jesus I love you and I trust whatever you decide to do in this moment," he shared.

When Opihi College's new Deputy Principal Kate Staniford contacted us asking to quote for a new website for their small rural school, we were happy to offer our services. And, as we had a strong existing relationship with Kate, who was formerly from Horowhenua College (who used SchoolPoint), we made an ideal match.
We worked within the design specification alongside Kate and the Principal Mike Wright and presented a clean modern responsive design that was an instant hit. This quickly allowed us to implement into our custom content management system that allows full control of the website - and our bespoke KAMAR integration - to publish notices and events from KAMAR, the school's Student Management System, directly on to their website without any double entry. This lead to the next project for Inbox Design - The Temuka secondary school wasn't using the KAMAR Parent Portal and mobile apps, so we then set up an off-site hosting enviroment to host the portal on our servers, and themed it to match the new website.
Having Inbox Design host the school's Website & KAMAR Parent Portal means that we will maintain the backups, updates and security of all of the school's online presence.
Inbox Design is a great company to work with when redesigning your webpage, working towards online option choices or incorporating the Kamar portal. Sheldon is always at the end of the phone, acts promptly on your feedback and presents quality products. We are very happy with our new webpage, it meets our needs entirely and is easy for staff to adapt as time passes. It was particularly important for us to have a website that worked on all screen sizes and had a clean, modern look. Sheldon has achieved this with no problem at all, creatively incorporating our school brand.
Opihi College has now started using our Online Course Section Software, SchoolPoint, for their student course selection that will allow caregivers and students to login to the website, browse available courses and make an informed selection. Planning their next steps in the Career Pathway.
Choosing courses online will save the school the time and laying out, proofing and printing the course selection booklets, which will save the school hundred's in printing costs.
To talk to us about a website with KAMAR Integration, or a Hosted Parent Portal, give Inbox Design a call on 07 281 1600.

Beyoncé releases new song, 'Spirit,' for 'The Lion King' soundtrack
New track preview to upcoming from Beyoncé album inspired by film
Updated: 10:39 AM CDT Jul 10, 2019
Erica Gonzales
After weeks of anticipation, Beyoncé has released a new original song for the 2019 remake of "The Lion King." The track, called "Spirit," appears in the film, where the singer portrays Nala opposite Donald Glover's Simba. You can listen to the song here:This single won't be her only release inspired by the retelling of Disney's animated classic. She also executive produced an album of original songs inspired by the film, called "The Lion King: The Gift," similar to how rapper Kendrick Lamar released a "Black Panther"-inspired album separate from its official soundtrack."The Gift," dropping July 19, will feature some of Beyoncé's favorite artists, including African artists "to both pay tribute to the iconic film and bring the authentic sounds of African music to the world," according to a press release. "It was important that the music was not only performed by the most interesting and talented artists but also produced by the best African producers. Authenticity and heart were important to me," the singer said in a statement. The resulting work is a mix of stories and genres, including hip-hop, R&B and Afro Beat, she said. The full track list and features list have not yet been revealed. Aside from "The Gift," the official film soundtrack for 2019's "The Lion King" was produced by Hans Zimmer and will drop July 11. The gospel track "Spirit" came out Tuesday on the same night of "The Lion King's" premiere in Los Angeles. The song was co-written by singer Ilya Salmanzadeh and Timothy McKenzie.

Respect is one of the foundation stones of all happy and fulfilling relationships. Respect means recognizing our own worth—and the worth of others. Now that you're a couple, you're a team that are mutually-supportive. This takes work as nobody is perfect. Be honest and considerate to your partner. Be compassionate and forgive mistakes your partner makes and apologise for your own as soon as you can.
Healthy self-respect is when you know that your thoughts, feelings and body deserve respect. To truly be respected, we must also respect. You're individuals with your own strengths and weaknesses. The yin to the other's yang. As a couple mutual decisions will sometimes need to be made by compromise. Being respected doesn't mean your needs always take priority over your partner's. When making individual decisions, always think how this will impact your partner.
With your partner, you're a united front. Though you don't have the same thoughts, you can reach an agreement with kindness and dignity. Take time and make the effort to really listen to your partner, and allow the conversation to flow. Put away your phone and give your partner your full attention when they're talking. Do not dismiss an idea or suggestion unkindly if you disagree with it as it will make future conversations difficult. How you say something is just as important as what you do, so don't be aggressive, angry or make your partner feel small. If you feel you've hurt your partner – apologise to him and buy him something for excuse – even if there is no current occasion like your wedding anniversary. After all this is the path to it and when it comes you can get a perfect 25th wedding anniversary gift from here.
Accept, or at the very least tolerate your differences. Be respectful of each others boundaries and protect your own from being undermined. Understand and respect your partner's personal boundaries regarding time together/apart, physical contact, etc. Accept that you can't change your partner. If your partner likes eating smelly cheese and you hate the aroma, find your own way to learn to live with it.
Let your partner know when they have done something you appreciate. Don't ever take your partner for granted. Acknowledging their help or support with a sincere 'Thank you', a love note or a little gift shows that you cherish having your partner in your life. Accept that your partner is going to let you down sometimes.
As a couple, you will want to celebrate the anniversary of your wedding, whether this was 2 years or 20 years ago. Decide whether you'd like to purchase a gift as a couple, or whether you'd rather give each other a surprise.
If you're having trouble selecting an anniversary gift, consider the traditional and modern wedding anniversary gifts that are listed for every year of marriage. If the suggestions for your particular anniversary year do not inspire, have a look at the other years. You're celebrating your marriage, so there is no reason to be limited by the choices given in the traditional or modern lists. It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks about your gift to each other. If you agree that you both want to buy a vacuum cleaner then that's fine. After all, an anniversary gift that a couple gets for themselves is their choice alone.
Pick a gift for your anniversary that has significance to both of you. A joint gift could be a large purchase that you both want. You may want to upgrade your television for example or perhaps have a vacation to a place that you both want to visit, but haven't yet got to.
This one needs some planning ahead, but in the weeks leading up to your anniversary, remind yourself of your past years together by writing each other little letters or love notes to be exchanged on the date of your anniversary. You can write about your memories, how you feel about them and all the little things they do that you appreciate. Write whatever feels right for you.
If you're not keen on writing, how about a box of small gifts that remind you of your partner and the relationship you have shared. Think of the significant times in your relationship and what you love most about your partner to get some ideas. The first song you danced to, the first movie you saw, include an umbrella for the time you kissed her on the seafront and you both got soaked by a wave, a bottle of whiskey that you toasted your child's new birth with. Get creative and don't take it all too seriously!
At any anniversary you may wish to renew your vows. Choose a romantic candle-lit dinner for two or if your marriage was a small affair, have the big celebration that you dreamed of having when you were engaged.
Watching your wedding video or going through the wedding photos is another popular way to spend a wedding anniversary. You will laugh at all the things that stressed you then and it will also remind you of the feelings of love, happiness and joy you feel for your spouse.
If you want to go out for a meal, perhaps you can revisit the restaurant where you held your wedding reception. This is a great opportunity to invite those who were not at your wedding and to share memories. Contact the restaurant to see if the meal you had at your reception is still on the menu. If not, call ahead and ask about the possibility of recreating the meal for your anniversary celebration. Another idea is to have a fun time together re-creating the same meal at home or buy in gourmet food if you don't have the wish or skills to cook that meal.
You may like to upgrade your wedding rings if they have become worn or damaged over time. Choose new rings together or make something new with the original rings by having them melted down by a jeweller who can create a new pair of rings to your specification.
Whether it be your Dad's birthday or Father's day is coming up, you can make your gift something unique, memorable and exciting. While a new tie, aftershave, and socks may be welcomed by your Dad (you know he loves you no matter what) these are personal things that most men would prefer to select for themselves. There are a lot of other ideas you may want to consider.
important he is to you and how you appreciate his support. You can include specific memories from childhood onwards when he acted as your role model or your hero. Write whatever you like to let him know you love him and are proud to call him dad. This is a gift he will treasure. Make a promise that you'll keep in touch more often. If it is possible, spend time with your dad doing things you know he'll appreciate, such as going for a hike together; going fishing, cycling, or sailing together; watch a movie together; visit an art gallery or museum; attend a sports match. Choose whatever you're sure he'll enjoy, make all the arrangements for transport and make sure there is time to just chill and talk together.
If your dad has a dream of piloting a plane, driving a sports car, taking a hot-air balloon ride arrange that for him. Ask the rest of the family to contribute to the gift if you need to reduce costs, with the added bonus that your siblings don't have to find a separate gift themselves. Make sure someone is there to record the experience and be there to share the thrill with him.
If the above sounds a bit too adventurous for your dad, how about booking him into cooking classes for his favorite cuisine. Or perhaps he would like to learn a new craft like pottery or woodcarving. A weekend artists course or a lecture tour to an area he has an interest in or wants to return to could tie in with a mini-vacation.
If your Dad is already busy with a lot of interests and hobbies of his own, check the things he might need for these. Perhaps there is some piece of sports equipment that is wearing out and in need of upgrading or replacement. Perhaps there is a better version of some of his electronic or computer gear, or simply something new that has been invented and he hasn't yet tried.

Q: User Input only at the end of while loop I want to make the "continue playing" user input to only appear when all the tries are exhausted in the guessing game.
from random import random, randint
import random

#Guessing Game
attempts = 5

print("===GUESS THE NUMBER===")
print(f"GAME OBJECTIVE: Guess the computer's number in {attempts} tries")

running = True

computerNum = random.randint(1,15)

while running == True:

    guess = int(input("Guess the number:\n>"))
    print("\n")

    if guess > computerNum:
        print("Lower...")
        attempts -= 1
        print(f"[You have {attempts} tries left]")

    if guess < computerNum:
        print("Higher...")
        attempts -= 1
        print(f"[You have {attempts} tries left]")

    if attempts == 0:
        print("GAME OVER!!!")
        print(f"The computer's number is {computerNum}")
        break

    if guess == computerNum:
        print("You have guessed the number!!!")
        print("YOU WIN!!!")
        break

    print("\n")

    playAgain = input("Do you want to continue playing(Y/N):\n")

    if playAgain in ("N","n"):
        break

The problem with this code now is just that each time you guess the number, it keeps asking if you want to continue playing.
Also, I want the console to print "Not a number" each time anything apart from a number is input.
if guess != int():
        print("Enter a number")

This is my rough idea so far but I keep getting error messages
I am a beginner by the way

A: You can handle user input that is not a number as shown in https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/python-int-function/.
You should not use break when the user wins or loses.
If you use it, the user is not able to play the game again.
To prevent the program from asking every time whether the user wants to play again, you have to check again for remaining tries if attempts == 0 or guess == computerNum.
from random import random
import random

# Guessing Game
attempts = 5

print("===GUESS THE NUMBER===")
print(f"GAME OBJECTIVE: Guess the computer's number in {attempts} tries")

running = True

computerNum = random.randint(1, 15)

while running == True:
    try:
        guess = int(input("Guess the number:\n>"))
    except ValueError as e:
        print("Enter a number")
        continue

    print("\n")

    if guess > computerNum:
        print("Lower...")
        attempts -= 1
        print(f"[You have {attempts} tries left]")

    if guess < computerNum:
        print("Higher...")
        attempts -= 1
        print(f"[You have {attempts} tries left]")

    if attempts == 0:
        print("GAME OVER!!!")
        print(f"The computer's number is {computerNum}")

    if guess == computerNum:
        print("You have guessed the number!!!")
        print("YOU WIN!!!")

    if attempts == 0 or guess == computerNum:
        print("\n")
        playAgain = input("Do you want to continue playing(Y/N):\n")

        if playAgain in ("N", "n"):
            break
        else:
            computerNum = random.randint(1, 15)
            attempts = 5

A: Like Tacconinja007 said, you could use a try, except statement to make sure the guess is always a number. And if you want to check if the guess is an integer you could do:
if type(guess) == int:

And if you want to make it so the program asks the user if they want to play again once they run out of attempts you could try the following code:
from random import random, randint
import random

# Guessing Game
attempts = 5

print("===GUESS THE NUMBER===")
print(f"GAME OBJECTIVE: Guess the computer's number in {attempts} tries")
running = True

computerNum = random.randint(1, 15)

while running:

try:
    guess = int(input("Guess the number:\n>"))
    print("\n")
except ValueError:
    print("Enter a number")
    continue

if guess > computerNum:
    print("Lower...")
    attempts -= 1
    print(f"[You have {attempts} tries left]")

elif guess < computerNum:
    print("Higher...")
    attempts -= 1
    print(f"[You have {attempts} tries left]")

if attempts == 0:
    print("GAME OVER!!!")
    print(f"The computer's number is {computerNum}")
    replay = input("Do you want to play again? (Y/N): ")
    if replay in ("N", "n"):
        break
    else:
        attempts = 5
        computerNum = random.randint(1, 15)

if guess == computerNum:
    print("You have guessed the number!!!")
    print("YOU WIN!!!")
    break

print("\n")

Microsoft is rolling out improved email protection for the Exchange Online component of Office 365. Specifically, they are expanding the use of DKIM and DMARC technologies inside Exchange Online and Exchange Online Protection (EOP).
The idea behind all of this is to expand the ability to authenticate email as coming from "trusted authenticated senders" so as to cut down and even eliminate the amount of "crud" (spam, phishing, etc.) emails that hits a user's Inbox. Exchange Online has always supported the SPF framework and other basic techniques for validating email sender authenticity but newer technologies and techniques are required to combat modern threats. DKIM and DMARC are those technologies.
Office 365 uses this DMARC tag to mark the message as SPAM.
If the message actually failed DKIM authentication the authentication header would have a dkim-fail tag and further DKIM processing of the email would fail.
Office 365 is rolling out these technologies across all of Office 365 (DKIM has to this point been supported on on IPv6 connections, it is now rolling out across IPv4 as well) and should be completely implemented by the end of the first quarter of 2015. It should greatly reduce (the already low) amount of phishing and SPAM email that does make it through the Exchange Online Protection filters. And, of course, Microsoft continues to add to the capabilities of Exchange Online Protection. In my view, this is just one more reason why Office 365 offers so much value as you would have to spend a great deal of money to provide similar levels of protection to your own, on-premise Exchange installation.
For those of you so inclined, further reading on DKIM is available here.

Artists & Statement
Anthony James Cotham
Anthony James Cotham is an artist and musician from Hoquiam, WA. Introduced to art by Erik Sandgren in 2001 while attending Grays Harbor College, he went on to graduate from The Evergreen State College in 2004 and currently resides in Portland, OR as a student in the engineering program at Portland State University.
"I got into music later than my friends. They would give me punk rock mix tapes and play in punk bands; but as a kid I had a different idea of what music was. I saw Nirvana happening to the lives of my friends while in school and felt the impact it had on them when they all took that big trip into Seattle to go to Kurt Cobain's memorial after he died. I just didn't understand the sentiment until after I tried, and failed, to succeed in life by following the safe example set by an older sibling into a drafting career in Phoenix, AZ. When I moved back home to mom's house in Hoquiam I found art and punk rock. This mural was a chance for me to showcase two things I love to a community I care about. I was so honored to be asked by Erik Sandgren to help with the Nirvana mural and I am so glad to have finally contributed something tangible to the Harbor.
One of my first thoughts about the project was, "How do we pull this off without turning into complete dorks in the eyes of the music community that I want to continue having a good standing in?" I think we pulled it off. And we did it by being objective, tasteful and well informed. Informed thanks in no small part to the supportive and direct involvement of Krist Novoselic–which I'm still geekily stoked about. We also took a lot of cues from The Experience Music Project's Nirvana exhibit and two books by Charles R. Cross: Heavier Than Heaven, Cobain Unseen. Even with all this I was particularly hyper-conscious about how important the names of the other rock bands in the mural were going to be; and all apologies to the Nirvana fan boys out there, but among the tens of bands that I'm sure we neglected to include, the only one that I regret having accidentally left off the painting is The Wipers. Maybe on the next Nirvana mural…"

The Bible has been a staple in our American culture with families having one in their living rooms to finding a Gideon's Bible in every hotel room. Times have changed! The Bible which points people to the freedom from sin found in Jesus Christ alone is not valued but considered offensive. We should not be surprised by this.
We shouldn't be surprised by the current culture shift away from Biblical views. Though sobering and saddening it reminds us that we are called to endure regardless of what culture thinks of the Bible.
Second, we shouldn't be surprised that some are offended by the Bible. The Apostle Paul wrote to the Corinthians that "For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God (1 Corinthians 1:18 ESV)." Paul was saying that the Gospel message of Jesus Christ seems counter-cultural to the world's thinking. Why would God die for His creation? Why is truth found through the perfect life, sacrificial death, and resurrection of our Savior Jesus Christ.
Why is the Bible offensive?
The Bible is Offensive because it reveals to us who God is. The Bible is more than just a book of promises or instructions for us. God reveals Himself to us through His Word. We do not have the Bible to see what we get from it, we read the Bible to see God who loves us even though we have fallen short (Romans 5:8).
The Bible reveals to us our condition. You and I are sinners (Romans 3:23; Ephesians 2:1). This is what is offensive! It reveals the truth of where we stand before God. People do not like something that tells them they are not only bad but in a terrible situation where it seems hopeless in their strength.
I am so thankful the Bible doesn't end with just pointing out our sin. The story doesn't end with pointing to our errors. the Bible points to Jesus Christ. Though we did the wrong, Jesus took the punishment. Though we were The Bible is Amazing because even though we are sinners who have rejected God, he has shown us his grace and love through Jesus Christ (Romans 6:23).
The Bible is more than just a book. It is the Word of God which we see what it does. "All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work (2 Timothy 3:16-17)." As a Christian, I will stand firm on the word of God as it is not only deep well for my dry and weary soul (Psalm 42:1; Psalm 119:25, 81, 162, 175) but also the words of Truth from the author of Truth, Jesus Christ (John 1).
