Scroll the page to learn how to design your own cycling jersey and mountain bike T shirts using a free vector graphics editor and YouTube.
You may ask yourself how I create these designs that I print on Highball bike jerseys. It's not rocket science, I'm telling you!
If you're not an artist, that is you have little skill in hand drawing, you can create such designs by using simple computer graphics software like Inkscape or Microsoft Visio. So if you'd like to design your own bike T shirts you should be able to do it easily after reading this post.
Let's take this downhill bike jersey as an example. The shapes you see here - lines, the black lighting bolts, etc - are done with the simple tools in the above mentioned software and then filled with the bucket icon. Some of the fills are gradient but I don't encourage you to work with gradient fills as you'll have trouble when printing the T shirts - most printing methods cannot deliver gradient prints. So work with single color solid fills. The garment manufacturer that makes the Highball cycling line doesn't have printing technology that works with gradient fills. That's why the actual jerseys were printed in solid colors.
Firstly, look on YouTube for a mountain bike video or BMX bike video that inspires you. This downhill silhouette is none other than the famous DH rider - Cedric Garcia. :-) I used the Cedric Garcia video below and I took a snapshot of it at second 42.
Pause the video at a point where the biker is in full view. You should make sure the biker is contrasting against the background, otherwise the vectorization process will blend the athlete with the landscape behind him. For example a brightly colored biker against green grass will make a good design to work on.
Make a print screen of the paused video and save it as an image file. I hit the Prnt Scrn key and then paste (Ctrl+V) the result in Paint (basic drawing software that comes with Windows). You may want to crop the image just to fit the biker - don't leave too much of the useless margins.
Vectorize your image. You can do this for free with Inkscape. Open the image in the vector editor, click to have it selected (with the arrow tool), go to Path/Trace Bitmap..., select Colors button in the lower cassette, click OK. You will get a vectorized version of the image that you can then edit piece by piece, that is eliminate portions of the image until you have only the biker silhouette. You can do this with the tool below the plain arrow (arrow and line with dots).
Vectorize your image with Vector Magic. Vector Magic is a web service that lets you upload and vectorize your images. It's great for logo re-size and other image enhancements. The first two vectorizations are for free so go check it out. I use this instead of Inkscape as it's more accurate.
Edit your vector drawing in Inkscape or Visio by changing the colors of the biker, adding text, shades, whatever. Eliminating the background as to remain only the MTB design on a white background is a tedious task. I didn't find any other way than manually selecting the color patches and deleting them. The same with color change - for cotton T shirts prints you may want to work with three colors max. Sublimation prints on micro mesh polyester can handle infinite colors but that's considerably more expensive.
Export your design in high resolution to a PNG or GIF file. In the Save As... window choose the file type. Don't forget to save your file in SVG format as well. You may come back to it later and edit it some more.
The images below describe the process. If you want to do this and have problems please leave a comment or write me an email. I'll get back to you as fast as I can.
Hey Constantin, I was stopping by the site to see what you've been up to lately and I stumbled upon this. This is an awesome write-up! Very detailed and informative. I decided to promote&link to it over here on this post on a new side project that I'm starting up.

Amelia Andrilenas: Beauty in Body and Soul
High School Illustrated October 10, 2014 Featured, Gymnastics, USA National 2,119 Views
By Kendall Murtha
'Tis in ourselves that we are thus or thus. Our bodies are our gardens to which our wills are gardeners. – William Shakespeare, Othello
We generally think of gymnastics as a sport in which the athlete's body is their primary instrument. Each time Amelia "Millie" Andrilenas, a junior at Juniata High School in Washington, takes to the gymnastic floor she demonstrates that success in the sport comes from the fusion of her soul and her body to display the beauty of the physical form in motion. Amelia consistently receives top scores for her team despite a congenitally malformed left hand that has not developed past the elbow.
To call Andrilenas' record impressive is an understatement: she won a statewide competition before the age of thirteen, was an individual qualifier for last year's 3A/2A state meet in both floor and vault events, and placed first, second, and fourth all-around in meets during the 2013-14 season. While it's only her second year with the team, Millie is making waves in the gymnastics world. "I moved here sophomore year, and we didn't have a team before that." But the program has definitely grown. Starting out with ten girls, the team finished this season with twenty-six.
Millie's consistent ability to return to the sport testifies to her determination and raw talent. She was introduced to gymnastics through a friend in the first grade. "I remember her telling me I'd really like it and I did. Although I dropped it for a year in second grade, I picked it back up the year after." Millie left gymnastics for the second time, spending close to two and a half years in Ethiopia with her parents on Christian missionary work.
"Obviously, gymnastics wasn't something Millie could continue to pursue in Ethiopia," said her father, Jim Andrilenas. "However, I remember when we were getting ready to depart for the United States; we took the opportunity to explore the country a bit further than we had previously. We encountered a few women with only one arm, who were living their lives normally. While it's never been an issue for Millie – and we were always fortunate for that – she realized she would need to strengthen her limbs in order to jump back into the sport."

Q: FontAwesome showing squares, not icons My webpage is now showing squares for the icons, not the icons itself.
I had the same page Page1.html (I "copy-pasted" the code to Page2.html), and Page2 is showing squares (with some characters inside ...), instead of icons.
Well, I checked the console of Page2, and here's what I found:

downloadable font: download failed (font-family: "FontAwesome" style:normal weight:normal stretch:normal src index:1): bad URI or cross-site access not allowed source: file:///D:/My Files/dist/font-awesome-4.4.0/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff2?v=4.4.0
  font-awesome.min.css:4:14

     downloadable font: download failed (font-family: "FontAwesome" style:normal weight:normal stretch:normal src index:2): bad URI or cross-site access not allowed source: file:///D:/My Files/dist/font-awesome-4.4.0/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.woff?v=4.4.0
  font-awesome.min.css:4:14

     downloadable font: download failed (font-family: "FontAwesome" style:normal weight:normal stretch:normal src index:3): bad URI or cross-site access not allowed source: file:///D:/My Files/dist/font-awesome-4.4.0/fonts/fontawesome-webfont.ttf?v=4.4.0
  font-awesome.min.css:4:14

     downloadable font: no supported format found (font-family: "FontAwesome" style:normal weight:normal stretch:normal src index:5) source: (end of source list)

Example of code using FontAwesome:

    Home

  ...

I didn't modify anything on any FontAwesome files.
Could this be the normalize.css, or any other stylesheets included in the webpage?

UPDATE:
So, Page2 is in a folder in the same level as Page1:
Page1: My Files/Page1.html
Page2: My Files/includes/Page2.html
... and my CSS Files: My Files/dist/ (CSS Files)
Now, I moved Page2 in the same folder as Page1, edited the <link href="" parts of Page2, and the icons work as expected.
What could be the problem here? ...

*

*Thanks, in advance! :)

A: The squares show up because of missing fonts. This also showed up when you checked page 2 console.
As @maraca and @Herm suggested, you'll need a server to access font-files. This is because a MIME type header is needed to interpret .woff files. More about this here : Mime type for WOFF fonts?
By starting a simple server, this mime type will be added automatically and the fonts will be served.
To start a server, you can use python :
python (version 3+)
$ python -m http.server

python (version 2+)
$ python -m SimpleHttpServer

This will start a server in current directory.
--
No this is not an issue being caused by normalize.css. It can be cause by another stylesheet only if it overrides font-family. But your case seems to be a header issue.

A: I had the same problem, the font was loaded but still getting the squares, it happened randomly so it was very difficult to reproduce.
I checked and the font was loaded, some icons that wore added later wore correctly displayed.
I tried to do several things and I ended up discovering that if I change the font-size it will force the browser to redraw the icons showing them properly.
This piece of code will change the font size of every .fa element by adding 0.01 "units" to its size.

Is This the Luxury Prison the Norway Gunman Could Call Home?
"facilities include a sound studio, jogging trails and a two-bedroom house separate from the main facility"
Anders Behring Breivik, the Norwegian man accused in the bombing and shooting spree in the Oslo area that killed 76 people last week, could go to Norway's Halden Fengsel prison, which is home to some of the country's most vile criminals.
What does this prison look like? The Telegraph paints a picture:
"The jail is spread over 75 acres of woodland just outside Oslo and facilities include a sound studio, jogging trails and a two-bedroom house separate from the main facility where convicts can stay with their families during overnight visits.
Guards move around the prison unarmed and often play sports or eat meals with the men they are tasked with watching."
The article goes on to point out that in this same prison rapists and murderers can partake in "kitchen laboratory" cooking classes, and can also always lounge in their state of the art cells with designer-style furniture and flat screen TVs.
Before possibly heading off to Camp Fengsel, the mass murdering Breivik is being held for at least the next eight weeks in complete isolation, unable to receive letters or visitors except his lawyer for the first four. While the prison system in Norway may seem a little harsh, Breivik is lucky to only have to face the Norwegian maximum prison sentence of 21 years.
"Speaking at the opening of the jail last year, governor Are Hoidal said: 'In the Norwegian prison system, there's a focus on human rights and respect.
We want to build them up, give them confidence through education and work and have them leave as better people.'"
The prison was built at a cost of $252million over ten years and was opened in April 2010 to house 248 inmates.


Toyota's eCom electric city car from the last 1990s. A small number were built for an experimental car share program called Crayon.
Toyota CEO Akio Toyoda appointed himself to take charge of the company's latest electric car program. It's not Japan's biggest carmakers first foray into the pure EV world. Over the last two decades, they introduced a wide range of electric car concept and programs. Since launching EV World in 1998, I've seen the eCom and the RAV4 EV come and go. Later they followed with an updated version of the all-electric SUV, this one powered by Tesla Motors and lots and lots of 18650 lithium laptop cells.
It was their hybrid Prius that was the real winner for the company. Combining a then state-of-the-art NiMH battery and innovative electric-assist, they pioneered and pretty well captured the global hybrid-electric car market. Last I heard they had some seven million on the road. My wife drives on of them.
Skeptical of the viability of lithium battery technology, the company focused on the promise of hydrogen fuel cells and the extra credits they'd earn from the state of California's ZEV program. The Mirai is the latest in a long line of fuel cell vehicles, all of which have had to contend with a lack of hydrogen fueling infrastructure. (Technically, hydrogen is an energy carrier, not a fuel. It must be manufactured from other substances: methane or water). Where a Tesla driver can charge at home, a Mirai driver may have to travel many miles to find a high pressure fueling station, each of which costs between $1.4 and $2.125 million to build and can only service a few dozen cars a day.
So why all the start-stop on battery EVs? It was rumored years ago, that Toyota suffered a serious setback in its attempts to commercialize lithium batteries to replace the aging NiMH chemistry used in the Prius and other company hybrids like the Camry. What the setback was, I never heard. Recall, GM had its own lithium battery accident that blew out windows and did other unspecified damage, including personnel injuries, at its Warren, Michigan research facility north of Detroit.
While NiMH has been a remarkably stable and long-lived chemistry for light hybrid applications, it simply lacks the 'umph' for extended electric driving range. The best you can get out of the standard Prius is maybe a mile if you stay below 35 mph. The plug-in Prius never really managed more than 8-11 miles at best. Clearly, Toyota needs to up its game if it intends to compete with GM's Volt and now Bolt, not to mention Tesla and every major automaker in Europe, as well as China.
We've heard over the years that Toyota researchers have been working on various metal air battery technologies, which promise to deliver energy densities comparable to that found in gasoline. We don't know yet if they've solved the puzzle, but the scuttlebutt now is they've developed a sufficiently energy dense battery to cause them to take a hard second look at battery electric cars.
If so, then the question now is: What kind of electric car?
They've tried tiny urban commuters like the i-Road and eCom. They've built small SUVs. The Mirai is a sedan, albeit fuel cell powered. Where do Mr. Toyoda and his team focus their attention?
The answer to that question depends on what they see is the future of the automobile, and who's the market? Is it the wealthier few in the shrinking middle class who still can afford $60,000+ vehicles (the Mirai carries a base sticker price of $57,500) or college-debt hamstrung Millennials who are only interested in car sharing when they need one, assuming they even have a drivers license, which 40% don't?
Is their market China where there already are established competitors and newcomers like WM Motors vying for the world's biggest car market and where traffic jams can take days to clear up and licenses are handed out on a lottery basis? Is it Europe where carbon emission rules are becoming increasingly stringent and more cities are introducing congestion charges or banning car traffic entirely in their city centers? Or America where big, burly, gas-guzzling pickups are the craze of the moment, not 'whimpy' green machines?
Will that car also have to include autonomous driving (which solves the problem of Millennials lacking driver licenses, at least). Everyone else is working on autonomous cars, so it seems pretty obvious Toyota will have to as well.
From what materials will it be built: carbon fiber à la BMW, aluminum as in Tesla, old-fashioned steel, or something entirely different like the Ford Model U that Bill McDonough developed more than a decade ago. Tesla now offers 'vegan' faux leather seats and PETA is now pressuring GM to do the same.
Where will the batteries be sourced? How will they and the larger vehicle be recycled? What about all the copper that has to go into an electric car's motor and wiring? Where will that come from and what will it cost? How many new mines will have to be opened and how many native peoples displaced and salmon spawning rivers polluted?
And just as important: Who will build it? Humans or robots given the pace of A.I. technology.
And we haven't even touched on the styling question. That's an entirely other can of worms trying to both anticipate and guide public tastes years into the future.
Mr. Toyoda and his team are going to have to come up with answers to these and many more questions before we see Toyota's next attempt to build an electric car. I sense many sleepless nights head in Toyota City.


In the month of January, I planned to start with Physical health. I joined Weight Watchers, set up my new fitness programs, and downloaded an alarm app on my phone in which I have to do math problems in order to make it shut up. If you are wondering what the alarm has to do with anything, I'll get to that in a second.
- Half-tracked ever since. Oops.
- Haven't been back on. Oops.
- Had a major breakthrough in Spiritual Health that I wasn't expecting. I'm sure I will share it here when God tells me the time is right to do so.
- Have not missed my morning Bible reading time in two weeks. Awesome!
So the month was some good, some bad, but overall not a total loss. I have lost five pounds, which is a really good thing. I had that unexpected revelation which is an awesome thing. And I discovered am amazing ability to fall asleep in moments, which is just a weird thing.
I downloaded an alarm clock app to my phone that would require me to work math problems because I figured that would force me to wake up when the alarm went off. I am good at math, but I can't do it in my sleep. My theory worked. With one exception. I can apparently wake up, do two math problems, and then fall back asleep almost instantly. My plan to get up and work out before my children awaken isn't going so smoothly.
And now month two has begun. The beauty of focusing on one word is that I don't feel I have failed. While I did not accomplish all of my goals, my life is healthier than it was four weeks ago. Now to focus on moving forward and becoming even healthier.
So, how's your word of the year coming along?

Egypt's interior ministry said Saturday it has arrested 17 Muslim Brotherhood members while they were meeting to devise ways to sabotage the Egyptian economy.
The cell was planning to use recent economic decisions by the government to cast doubt on the abilities of the national economy and instigate citizens to stand against the economic development process, a ministry statement said.
The arrested include leading Brotherhood figure Shabaan El-Sayed, already wanted in a case, and 11 others in the meeting and five manning the location of their meeting.
They were found in possession of a birdshot gun and bullets. They were also in possession of $70,000 and EGP105,975.
The interior ministry said the arrested confessed on tape to their crimes, including plans to escalate the dollar shortage crisis, and have been referred to the prosecution for further questioning.


Strength and aerobic capacity decline with age. We can't deny it but we know that if we continue to exercise we can slow the decline. Perhaps less talked about, but equally important to us swimmers, is that our flexibility also decreases as we age. This is due to an increase in something called a cross bridge, which are additional links between the collagen fibres at shorter intervals along the length. As a result the collagen in our connective tissue stiffens up. This in turn reduces the available stretch in the fibres.
Fortunately, like strength, flexibility can also be maintained through the right exercise routine. As with many things to do with the human body and mind it's a case of use it or lose it.
Use a variety of strokes in your swimming training. This will help maintain both strength and flexibility – and it's more fun.
Add yoga or Pilates to your exercise routine.
Consider how your daily routine affects your strength and flexibility. Sitting at a desk all day lengthens and weakens the glutes and shortens the hip flexors. Swimming with tight hip flexors will often give you an ache in the lower back and weak glutes will result in a loss of power on hip extension causing you to overuse the hamstrings and ultimately swim slower. If this is you, target these areas on your exercise routines.
Finally, don't panic that you might have left it too late. Flexibility is actually quite easy to gain and maintain. I often hear people saying that they are simply inflexible and despite stretching they can't develop muscle length. However it's always possible to improve your flexibility and it just needs commitment to regular stretching over a long period. It's true that some are physiologically going to be more flexible than others; however, everyone can improve with a little dedication.

Whether for driveways, pathways, patios, utility landscape areas or to surround trees, crushed stone or decomposed granite can be a versatile material that prevents weed growth, maintain even soil moisture and makes an outdoor space more appealing. These two are not the same material, though. Decomposed granite has a natural coarse look to it, while crushed stone products tend to be more flat and have a higher amount of fine material. Crushed stone products, granite, sandstone, limestone and others offer a greater array of natural colors to work with than most true decomposed granite materials.

Blind, Autistic, and Amazing: Kodi Lee Wins the Golden Buzzer and Millions of Hearts Around the World
by Noelle
August 7, 2019 • 14:30 pm / National
Millions were wowed by America's Got Talent contestant Kodi Lee and his rendition of Donny Hathaway's "A Song For You," earning Season 14's first Golden Buzzer by judge Gabrielle Union. Kodi was born with optic nerve hypoplasia, and survived life-saving surgery when he was just five days old. Despite his condition leaving him legally blind and being diagnosed with autism at age four, Kodi's musical passion and talent triumph.
Kodi's mother, Tina, recalled he showed extraordinary musical talent at a very young age. She recounted when Kodi was just two years old, his father began playing "Mary Had A Little Lamb" on the piano. "Kodi just reached over and started playing it himself. And we thought, 'Oh, my gosh! He has perfect pitch, perfect memory and perfect timing.'"
Now 22, Kodi has learned six instruments, including being mostly self-taught on the piano, starting lessons just four years ago. As his family has always enjoyed soul music, Kodi's brother helped choose his audition song. Kodi loves all genres of music, and he has also studied tap dance at Temecula Dance Company, for which he has a natural talent as well.
A Southern California native, Kodi performs at any gig that will have him. At just six years old, while visiting Disneyland, Kodi began drumming along to an a capella group's performance. The singers immediately applauded him and invited Kodi to sing alongside them. His performance was so popular that the group asked him to join them for the rest of the day. Kodi has since been invited to perform at Carnegie Hall, and his most recent shows include local schools, restaurants, and music events. Kodi's official website chronicles his performances, even worldwide.
Dr. Darold Treffert, a psychiatrist and the medical consultant for Dustin Hoffman's Oscar-winning role in Rain Man, has studied Savant Syndrome over fifty years, and told The Press Enterprise,
"[Kodi] does fit the definition of a prodigious musical savant. I've been following his career a bit. He is blind and has been given a diagnosis of autism. Yet, he has this spectacular musical ability."
Kodi is one of just 25 people in the entire world who possess such a keen ability for musical expression: perfect pitch, and an audio photographic memory, which means he can recall music after hearing a song just one time. Kodi has mastered classical works by Chopin, Bach, and Mozart, and he can also perform rock, pop, and R&B.
Although Kodi did not have a large social media following, that has likely changed since his inspiring performance on AGT which has been viewed over 300 million times. Fans have expressed their congratulations and encouragement on Twitter and Instagram, some adding they look forward to Kodi being an inspiration to those with autism and disabilities.
"What just happened there was really extraordinary," AGT judge Simon Cowell responded to Kodi and his mother after his audition. "I don't know what it's like to live in Kodi's world. I can tell, obviously, you have an amazing relationship, the two of you. I'm going to remember this moment for the rest of my life."
Fellow judge Howie Mandel called Kodi "a great inspiration." Judge Julianne Hough was moved as well, stating, "Everybody needs a voice and an expression, and I really feel your heart, your passion. I heard you and I felt you, and that was beautiful."
Gabrielle Union said, "I'm a new judge this season, and I'm also a new mom this year, and it's the toughest job I've ever had and the most rewarding job I've ever had. You just want to give your kids the moon, the stars, and the rainbows." In a video Union posted to social media immediately after her Golden Buzzer decision, she explained,
"I wanted a performer that was going to change the world, and I believe Kodi is that act. I'm so happy Kodi came into all of our lives."
Kodi is one of countless inspirational stories of remarkable lives defying the odds. While lives like Kodi's are celebrated for extraordinary talents and accomplishments, they are sadly often viewed as discardable in the womb. Parents whose preborn babies are diagnosed with disabilities are often pressured to abort. A heartbreaking 87 percent of babies with Down syndrome are aborted in the United States, and even higher rates abroad, despite 99 percent of people with Down syndrome report living happy, fulfilling lives.
As technology advances, concern for the ethics of protecting vulnerable lives, equality, and human rights increases as well. Fetal testing is now being developed to detect genetic abnormalities linked to autism. Despite fetal surgeries to treat spina bifida, fallible misdiagnoses, and babies' astounding ability to correct abnormalities in the womb, the bigoted assumption remains that lives with disabilities are less valuable.
Live Action's Lila Rose described her first ultrasound appointment,
"I was offered 3 tests whose sole purpose was to detect disability in my baby. I asked the Dr, so what if we find something? She said we consider 'our options.' Our medical system is on a search & destroy hunt for babies with disability. [And] I'm finding a new doc."
Pressured to abort her baby, Andrea Bocelli's courageous mother thankfully refused and blessed the world with his renowned talent. She said it was actually his blindness which led him to music. In turn, Bocelli says it was his mother's loving decision to bring her son into the world that inspired his own pro-life beliefs, adding he is not merely anti-abortion but truly pro-life in the fullest sense: "I am not only fighting against something, I am fighting for something — and I am for life."
Such extraordinary talents prove all lives have value and purpose, which no diagnosis can undermine. Similar to therapy and services provided by animals, music also often provides a helpful outlet for those with challenges. Kodi's mother also credits music for helping him live with autism, saying, "He has all these talents, but he has trouble communicating. He used to tantrum like 30 times a day. After he started performing, he got it. It really helped us to get his autism under control. He wants to be an entertainer."
Performing music has also helped Kodi adjust socially, including meeting new people and being in crowds, which were previous struggles. Tina added, "That was the deal. We said if you want to perform, you have to shake people's hands and you got to let people come up and say hello to you. And it worked."
Both Kodi and his mother say they have been touched by the messages they receive from autistic kids and their parents about what Kodi's performance meant to them. Tina explained she became emotional on stage after Kodi's performance because she kept thinking of all of the rehearsal time and effort he put in to get to that moment. "It was just a proud moment to see that. He's worked so hard. It's hard to explain, but as a mom it was like, 'You got him where he wanted to go.'"
Supported by his whole family, Kodi shares his gratitude for his special relationship with his mother as well, even performing a touching song in honor of her for Mother's Day, the same month he won the Golden Buzzer — which he called a "magical" experience. Kodi is busy preparing for the live shows soon, but regardless of the competition's outcome, Kodi is committed to building his music career and says,
"I'm going to keep performing for everybody. I like to make people happy."

The Birmingham Barons are proud to announce that Head Groundskeeper Zach Van Voorhees was voted the 2018 Southern League Groundskeeper of the Year by a group of managers, umpires, and broadcasters from around the league.
As the Southern League's Groundskeeper of the Year, Van Voorhees will be the Southern League's nominee to the Sports Turf Managers Association as they select the overall winner for Double-A Groundskeeper of the Year.
"We are very proud of Zach being named 2018 Southern League Groundskeeper of the Year," Barons General Manager Jonathan Nelson said. "He has done an incredible job in continuing to make Regions Field among the best ballparks and playing fields in all of Minor League Baseball."
Finishing his second season in Birmingham, Van Voorhees holds a job that requires vigorous work hours, demanding physical tasks, and a work ethic that is unmatched. Van Voorehees' responsibilities include maintaining the playing surface, bullpens, and managing the grounds crew to keep Regions Field in playing shape.
This marks the first time Van Voorhees has won the award. A native of Vanceboro, North Carolina he attended North Carolina State University and earned a Turf Grass Management degree in 2010. He embarked on his professional career as an assistant with the Kinston Indians before moving on to the Greenville Drive in 2013. After spending three seasons with the Hickory Crawdads, Van Voorhees took the reigns in Birmingham ahead of the 2017 season.


Nepali film 'Damini' was originally a Bhojpuri language movie and was released in India in 2010. It was later dubbed into Nepali language and released in Nepal in 2013. The distributors of the movie had used the movie as a revenge tool and created a clash with Rekha Thapa's another movie 'Kali'. Although the movie was successful in diverting some of Rekha's fans, it couldn't stop 'Kali' becoming a hit film.
Rekha claimed that she has a very short role in the movie and Rani Chaterjee is the lead actress of the movie. To compete with 'Kali', the 'Damini' distributors had designed the poster to highlight Rekha and Biraj Bhatt. Actor Biraj Bhatt was also invited from India to promote the movie.

our march catalog has some amazing items that can be worn as beach cover ups… i love how light and airy these pieces are, i would live in them all summer long. which one do you guys like best?
new nor cal stores open today!
I would wear them all!
oh my.. I am in loooove with these pictures! the tones are so great and springy.
definitely want all of these dresses.
the model in the 3rd and 5th images looks emaciated. is this really the image you want to be promoting?!
I love the runaway lace kaftan!!! It looks like it could be versatile!
I am in love with both the open stitch beach tunic and the lace kaftan equally.
I agree, I don't mean to hurt anyone's feelings but the model in picture #5 looks scary. I would rather buy clothing from a company that appreciates/encourages women to look healthy.
all so amazing I wish I could have them all :) I'm torn between the hooded maxi and lace kaftan!
gah! all these photos are fabulous! really, everything you post is making me long for summer all that much more. college terms could not end sooner!
really, gorgeous photos. i'm going to have to work for free people one of these days… it's a must.
I really love the makeshift belt Aline Weber is wearing with the Hooded Maxi dress! I wish I could see a better picture of it…or that it was a FP item I could buy :) Inspires me to be creative either way, which is one of the many things I love about Free People!

Solar Powered Charging Stations for the Audi E-tron series
edvin Dec 2, 2010 Audi 1,891 Comments
Currently, Audi intended to use solar energy for future mobility. As the results, Audi's is planning to expand the Solar Panel System at its facility in Ingolstadt so that the electric vehicle's batteries will be charged using clean, zero-emission renewable energy from solar.
Audi e-tron models will in future have their batteries charged with current obtained directly from photovoltaic equipment on the plant site. The Company is greatly extending its solar energy capacity: by the end of the year additional photovoltaic modules will have been installed on a 7,500 square meter area of the new Audi A3 body construction building's roof.
"This concept shows that Audi is tackling the topic of electromobility systematically," said Plant Manager Peter K¶ssler. The photovoltaic installation uses innovative thin-layer modules that satisfy the most stringent environmental protection, efficiency and flexibility standards. "We aim to set the standards in every area," added K¶ssler.
Audi is again extending its cooperation with Green City Energy: in 2009 this Munich-based company installed photovoltaic modules on an area of 11,600 square meters at the Ingolstadt plant. Audi has now made an additional 7,500 square meters of roof area available on the Audi A3 body construction building, with a peak output rating of 500 kilowatts. Approximately 460 MWh of electricity can be obtained from this new installation, enough to satisfy the annual needs of around 180 households. The extension increases the total annual output from all the plant's installations of this type to about 1,500 MWh, of which approximately one third is used directly where it is generated.
This is the first time that solar energy generated on site has been used directly in Audi's electricity network. As well as the new battery charging stations for electric cars, other production facilities will also use this green electricity. By reducing transmission losses, consumption at the generating point makes a worthwhile contribution to energy generation according to climate-friendly principles.
Audi also makes use of solar energy at its second German production plant in Neckarsulm. The photovoltaic installation there is located on the roofs of several garage parking facilities, and generates more than 1,000 MWh of electrical energy annually.

India's Strides Arcolab completes acquisition of Grandix
PharmaTimes
Strides Arcolab has signed a definitive agreement to acquire fellow Indian drugmaker Grandix Pharmaceuticals in a move that will give the firm a domestic presence.
Strides is one of India's largest exporters of branded generic pharmaceutical products but is now looking at the domestic market, hence it is paying 100 crores (approximately $24 million) on a cash and debt free basis to gain control of Grandix. The transaction will be accretive to Strides' earnings per share.
Grandix is particularly strong in the southern part of India and its sales last year reached 48.50 crores, and are expected to rise over 30% in 2007, while earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation were up 22% to 10.89 crores. Strides added that India is amongst the fastest growing pharmaceutical markets in the world and the acquisition "will be the springboard to launch a national presence by leveraging existing Grandix products with the company's strong R&D pipeline".
Getting hold of Grandix means that Strides will have a sales force of 400 by the end of July, the firm concluded. It has 14 manufacturing plants spread across the US, Brazil, Mexico, Italy, Poland and Singapore, as well as in India, employs around 1,700 people and has a marketing presence in over 50 countries.

"Young man, you're making a scene" — narly k.
"Young man, you're making a scene"
Ok, so no one actually said this to Bunky, but he was pretty damned vocal during our brunch at The Press Room today. Fortunately we had some very understanding ladies sitting next to us, and they happily waved and smiled at his lordship as he warmed his lungs up. Thankfully, a piece of his mummy's Croque Monsieur kept little Monsieur quiet for a few moments, and then a special order of toast (which the restaurant very kindly didn't charge us for) kept him happy - at least until he worked out how far he could throw that toast.


I haven't been blogging. I haven't even been blog reading.
But, our life has still been going along really well, in spite of that.
Scott & I got to go on a local getaway for our 8 year anniversary.
We are seriously grateful that we got to get out for a whole night & day.
We went to the Dream Inn, which was super hip.
This was our morning view, off the balcony.
No fog for us. Evening or morning.
Our time was pretty much a research trip. And super fun.
We researched each other & together.
Teachers in service day. Is that what you call it?
on this iphone photo issue.
We are hugging the elephant seal sculpture at Long Marine labs.
And, we took the photo on the iphone, in the vertical position.
I uploaded it to my computer & it is on my computer in the vertical position.
I upload it onto blogger... horizontal.
And I am postin them here to show you all that we are not smart enough for an iphone.
so we could bring our kids & teach them all we learned.
watched quick moving Sunflower sea stars (they just keep growing more and more arms!).
the docents are very engaging as well.
sorry about the flash & the strong reflection. hard to see, but this is the shark petting tank.
We took a birding walk, hunting for Black-Chinned Hummingbirds.
we did spot two hummingbirds above us.
But, they moved on too quickly for us to see what they looked like.
It was exciting nonetheless. I had never thought I would go birding, prior to turning 65.
Now I have. And, I liked it. Mostly because of my birding partner.
We ended our outing with the Santa Cruz Food Tour.
People, this was SO fun.
I love good food. And I like walks.
So, a walking food tour of downtown sounded great to me.
But, once the tour was underway we learned it was much more than that.
We got a really fun history lesson of the city.
about their builders & the home owners.
and visited the only original structure still standing.
Our tour guide was great. And now we love Santa Cruz more.
We highly recommend this tour to locals and to visitors.
Exploring together was a blast. We are grateful!
A picture of something beautiful, ten times throughout our day on the tenth of September.
Water flowers have bloomed. They weren't there first thing this morning.
My favorite glass sits among dirty dishes that didn't get washed.
Quality Check on Journey Bags for foster kids in our county.
Getting dinner onto the table.
If marriage is hard work, then I love working hard.
Today Scott & I have been married 8 years.
What a gift this work is. I am so grateful!
what hard work marriage is, I feel a bit bummed.
I've talked about love being hard before in a letter to my kids.
It can be accurate to say that marriage is hard work.
It is not a hobby. It requires effort.
Marriage changes what you are.
And it does take work.
But marriage needs more public praise & celebration.
I want ya'll to know, that this is work I love.
It is easy working hard to love my husband.
He works hard to make it easy.
This is a sweet job. It just keeps getting better.
I'm glad to stay in this work for the rest of our days.
This work makes me smile.
This song, Sharpened in Time, makes me say, "Yes! That is it!"


GM tests all their engines using long life DEX-COOL coolant. Therefore, Crusader recommends DEX-COOL or any good extended life coolant (pink/orange in color) mixed 50% DEX-COOL to 50% water for engines that have a closed cooling system. More than 50% coolant can contribute to overheating. Do not mix or substitute DEX-COOL with traditional silicated coolant (green in color).
The recommended oil for most of our engines is 15W-40 conventional oil. If the engine is an XR7 or XS7 the recommended oil is 5W-30 synthetic oil.
Can I use synthetic oil in my PCM engine?
Synthetic oils are not recommended for use in Crusader engines. Synthetic oils may offer advantages in cold temperature pumpability and high temperature oxidation-resistance. However, synthetic oils have not proven to provide operational or economic benefits over conventional petroleum based oils in Crusader engines. Their use does not permit the extension of oil change intervals.
When an engine is brand new, the oil should be changed after 25 hours of operation. Engine oil should be changed every 50 hours or once per year, whichever comes first.
What is Crusader's policy on the use of Ethanol?
The implementation of ethanol-based fuel is spreading rapidly throughout the United States . The end user of our engines might well be concerned regarding the use of this fuel. As such, Challenger Engines provides the following policy statement regarding the use of this fuel.
This notification addresses the use of ethanol fuels IN CHALLENGER ENGINES ONLY. It does not address the use of ethanol fuels in vessel related components such as boat gas tanks, boat fuel lines, boat fuel filters, etc. The boat owner is STRONGLY ENCOURAGED to contact the boat builder regarding the suitability of ethanol fuel usage in their vessel.
With today's rising gasoline prices, what octane rating is recommended for my Pleasurecraft engine?
Crusader fuel injected engines are calibrated to operate on 87 octane fuel and maximum performance is obtained when using this fuel. The ignition timing set by the factory requires the use of a high-quality lead free regular gasoline with an octane specification of (R+M/2).
What type of transmission fluid should I use?
The only certified transmission fluid is Dexron III.
Transmission fluid should be changed once every year, using Dexron III transmission fluid.
Where can I find my engine owner's manual?
Most owner's manuals can be found under the support tab on our website.
Can I purchase parts directly from Crusader?
Unfortunately we do not sell parts directly to the public. Under our Dealer Locator tab you will be able to find your local dealer that will be able to assist you with all of your concerns.
Yes you can do your own maintenance. Keep in mind that there is a maintenance log in your engine owner's manual to help you keep track of all that you have done.

Professor Green – Growing Up In Public
(Virgin EMI) UK release date: 22 September 2014
by John Murphy
Professor Green has had a rough time of it lately, and he's here to tell you all about it. Growing Up In Public, the Londoner known to his mother as Stephen Manderson's third album, is so self-referential that it almost feels like an autobiography, with tales of his celebrity marriage, spats with fellow pop-stars, car accidents, run-ins with the law and so on.
Over the last few years, Green has built up a loyal audience for his particular brand of grimey-pop and Growing Up In Public will no doubt go down well with them. Indeed, it starts off well enough, with I Need Church's muscular, crunchy guitar riffs kicking off the album, before Green starts spitting his quick-fire raps – there's digs at "knobs" like The Script's "Danny O'Donog-who-what?" and a disparaging reference to Robbie Williams' notorious postcard from the edge of a breakdown Rudebox (which prompts a staged voicemail appearance from Williams himself at the end of the track).
The reference to Rudebox is pretty ironic in fact, as there's a level of self-absorption on display that recalls Williams' lowest musical point. Thankfully though, Green is a far better rapper than Williams, even if his slightly nasally whine does tend to grate on the nerves after a while – although the generally high level of his collaborators and the mostly impressive production means that this isn't as much as a problem as it could be.
What does become a problem is the rather aggressive air that permeates throughout Growing Up In Public. It feels rather like the musical equivalent of taking a good mate to the pub to listen to his problems, then warily eying up the empty glasses piling up while desperately contemplating a plan to usher him out of the door before he starts head-butting the jukebox.
So we have Not Your Man, an unpleasant, bordering on misogynist, rant against a materialistic ex-girlfriend (culminating in the 'yes he really did say that' line of "Is it because my dick isn't as big as Dappy's?") although credit is admittedly due for rhyming 'Louis Vuitton' with 'futon'. Name In Lights, a duet with Rizzle Kicks, is a tiresomely meta commentary on the recent tabloid scandal involving himself, Cara Delevingne and a parcel of cocaine, while Fast Life is yet another sorrowful story of how hard it is being a pop star who sleeps with loads of women, with an opening line of "I just woke up next to this chick I don't know and I'll probably never see again".
However, when Green isn't telling all and sundry about how much powder he sticks up his nose, and actually lets some emotion in, the results are rather better. Lullaby is by far the best track here, a touching tale of his battle with depression, touching on his real life tragedies ("I don't wanna do what my dad did with a rope") and Tori Kelly's angelic vocals on the chorus makes it an uplifting, rather than depressing, listen. Similarly, Shadow Of The Sun has an atmospherically brooding quality to it, while Dead Man's Shoes is a genuinely witty look at the problems beset in marrying a reality TV star (Green is, of course, married to the former Made in Chelsea star Millie Mackintosh).
The problem is though that for every bright spot there's a song round the corner that sounds like it's been built in a laboratory with the instructions 'Rudimental-lite' writ large. While fans of Professor Green will doubtless lap it up, there's not enough to convince the unconverted that there's anything sufficiently different on offer from the rest of today's chart music and it's a sad fact that Green's raps, while possessing an undeniably impressive flow, just end up sounding whiney and irritating after a while. There's talent here, although it's often buried deep beneath generic beats and lyrical self-obsession that eventually becomes a bit exhausting to listen to.

Tom Hanks Building A Robot For Apple TV+ Finch
Apple TV+ news
Building A Robot to look after his pooch
By Paul Devine / August 12, 2021
Need someone or should I say something to watch your dog? Tom Hanks is your man as he likes to build robots to look after dogs in upcoming Apple TV+ sci-fi Finch.
Today Apple Original Films announced that the highly anticipated Post Apocalyptic sci-fi film will debut on Apple TV+ in November. Apple have also released released a first look image which shows off Hanks, his dog and the robot.
The film is directed by Game Of Thrones/True Detective filmmaker Miguel Sapochnik . Originally the film was called Bios which has Hanks as an robotic engineer who is one of the very few survivors of an cataclysmic solar event. Any survivors are forced to live underground bunker. He has his dog for company (a dog called Goodyear), he builds a robot (voiced by Caleb Landry Jones) to look after him when he can't.
Here's the film's official synopsis…
In Finch, a man, a robot and a dog form an unlikely family in a powerful and moving adventure of one man's quest to ensure that his beloved canine companion will be cared for after he's gone. Hanks stars as Finch, a robotics engineer and one of the few survivors of a cataclysmic solar event that has left the world a wasteland. But Finch, who has been living in an underground bunker for a decade, has built a world of his own that he shares with his dog, Goodyear. He creates a robot, played by Jones, to watch over Goodyear when he no longer can. As the trio embarks on a perilous journey into a desolate American West, Finch strives to show his creation, who names himself Jeff, the joy and wonder of what it means to be alive. Their road trip is paved with both challenges and humor, as it's as difficult for Finch to goad Jeff and Goodyear to get along as it is for him to manage the dangers of the new world.
This film marks Hanks second film with Apple with World War 2 drama Greyhound the other. That film was one of the streaming channels biggest and best openings, we're sure when this one arrives it get a similar opening.
Finch's screenplay by Craig Luck, making his feature-film writing debut, with Ivor Powell as a ssociate producer (Blade Runner, Alien). The film is produced by Kevin Misher , Jack Rapke, Jacqueline Levine producing with Robert Zemeckis, Luck, Sapochnik, Andy Berman, Adam Merims and Jeb Brody onboard as executive producers.
Finch will be exclusively released on Apple TV+ from 5th November.

Q: ASP.NET MVC Razor Headers and Views for Each Column Dynamically I have the following Razor lines for now:

    Türkçe Söz Dizisi
    English Word Sequence

@foreach (var item in Model) {

        @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.Tr)

        @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.En)

        @Html.ActionLink((String)@ViewBag.Edit, "Edit", new { id=item.ID }) |
        @Html.ActionLink((String)@ViewBag.Delete, "Delete", new { id=item.ID })

}

However, I will add some columns automatically from the program to database table. I need a way to print this th's and td's accordingly. In short, I need a way to go through Model's dynamic columns. How can I achieve this?
EDIT: My Model type here is "Proposal". However, I want to reach dynamic attribute of Proposal.Type.Word(Tr, En, or any other added Language Enum). How can I?
@foreach (var item in Model) {
    Type objectType = Type.GetType(typeof(RexamOneriSistemi.Models.Word).AssemblyQualifiedName);
    System.Reflection.PropertyInfo[] fields = objectType.GetProperties();

    @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.ID)
    @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.Owner.Name)
    @foreach (System.Reflection.PropertyInfo f in fields) {
    if (f.Name.ToString() == @HttpContext.Current.Session["Language"].ToString())
    {

         // What to do here exactly to get item.Type.Word.[dynamic attribute]?

    }

}

I can get Razor String
string s = "@Html.Displayfor(modelItem => item.Type.Word." + System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Session["Language"] + ")"

Resulting: @Html.Displayfor(modelItem => item.Type.Word.Tr)

Can I insert a string to be rendered as Razor Syntax? If yes, how?

A: I have tried this code and it works

      @{
        Type objectType = Type.GetType(typeof(yourProjectNamespace.Models.Language).AssemblyQualifiedName);

        System.Reflection.PropertyInfo[] fields = objectType.GetProperties();

         foreach (System.Reflection.PropertyInfo f in fields)
         {

          @f.Name.ToString()

       }
    }

    @foreach (yourModelType item in Model) {

    foreach (System.Reflection.PropertyInfo f in fields)
         {

         @Html.Display(f.Name.ToString())

         }

            @Html.ActionLink((String)@ViewBag.Edit, "Edit", new { id=item.ID }) |
            @Html.ActionLink((String)@ViewBag.Delete, "Delete", new { id=item.ID })

    }

To get Assemply Qualified Name of your class , see this link here

A: Came across this question, wrote this maybe it will help someone else. This code will dynamically load your model into a table.
@model System.Collections.Generic.List<App.Client.Models.MyModel>

            @foreach (var property in Model.GetType().GetGenericArguments()[0].GetProperties())
            {
                @property.Name
            }

        @foreach (var modelItem in Model)
        {

                @foreach (var property in modelItem.GetType().GetProperties())
                {
                    @property.GetValue(modelItem)
                }

        }

Much appreciated. Step one, Bourbon Street whores. Step two, all the drugs. Step three, *shrugs*. Step four, PROFIT.
I can never commit to that many hours without interruption but I think this is a cool idea as well. Hope you're able to get enough people interested to start it.

Twilight Thunder – Chapter 5
The darkness slowly lifted, bringing Arwen back into semi-consciousness. Something hard and cold was coating the side of her face, and fierce pain radiated from her arm and both legs. She was lying in snow, and somewhere above her the wind howled viciously. There was light here, sunlight, but it was dimmed slightly by the blowing snow.
She tried to remember where she was. She had dim, hazy memories of looking down and seeing horse feet gallop below her, of hearing the thunderous sound of beating wings, of smelling blood that was not her own. Faye had been with her, screaming something but not talking to her. A shadow had been there, too, a large one in the shape of a bat. . .
Arwen opened her eyes, panic flooding her. She remembered two things quite vividly now. She remembered hearing Faye scream as she was ripped off the horse's back, and seeing empty air below her as the horse leapt out of the shadow of the Redhorn Pass and over a cliff. She could see the horse now. It was lying on its side nearby, its neck clearly broken, body stiff. It was a white horse, a very familiar horse. It was Saiya.
"Naneth!" Arwen cried, forcing herself into a sitting position and screaming when the pain in her arm intensified tenfold. "Naneth! Faye!"
Only the howling wind answered her desperate cries. Clearing her vision with her painless arm, she looked around. She was lying at the foot of a steep, snow-covered drop, and the rocky peaks of the Redhorn Pass towered high above, barely visible. She dimly recognized this place. If not for the blowing snow, she knew she would be able to see the forests of Lorién far below where she lay now. The way she had come had been a rather abrupt method of making it this far down the mountain. It normally took a day of slow travel to make it this far using the path.
Arwen did not know how long she had been here, but she guessed at least more than a day due to the fact that there was no longer any evidence of her fall in the snow on the mountainside. A considerable amount of snow had gathered on Saiya's body as well. But why hadn't the Orcs followed her? Where was everybody? Why was she alone?
"Naneth!!" Arwen screamed again. "Naneth!!"
If Saiya was there, then Celebrían must be nearby, Arwen thought desperately. Perhaps she was unconscious, buried in the snow somewhere. Arwen tried to crawl forward, but screamed and collapsed when she realized that not only her arm, but both her ankles were broken. She rolled onto her back, seeing the sun dimly through the haze of snow and wind.
"Help!!" she cried. "Somebody help me!!"
Again, nothing. Arwen felt tears start to flow down her cheeks, and when she lifted her uninjured hand to wipe them away, she realized her face was coated in frozen blood. She collapsed in the snow, letting her tears come unhindered, frightened for the sake of her mother and for Faye.
Darkness came, bringing deathly cold temperatures. Partially frozen and unable to move, Arwen was forced to suffer the night in agony. The only fact that offered even the slightest bit of comfort was that throughout the night, the only sound she heard was the wind. No Orc or black shadow appeared.
As dawn came, the wind finally settled down, clearing the air of snow and offering a splendid view of the mountains and the lush green lands below. Arwen no longer possessed the strength to lift her head, and as the sun slowly began its ascent into the sky, she closed her eyes. She was going to die here, alone and without ever knowing what had happened to Celebrían or Faye. She. . .
"My lord and lady, there is a dead horse down there."
Arwen knew that voice. She had heard it once in her childhood, on her first visit to Lorién. The Elf that owned it had not been particularly pleasant, but right now it sounded like music in her ears. Desperately, she gathered up what strength she had left.
"Help," she cried weakly. "Please. . ."
The sound of approaching horses ignited a tiny spark of hope. Had they heard her? Was it really who she thought it was, or was her dying mind playing tricks on her?
"By the Valar!!"
Suddenly, someone was standing over her, a gentle face that Arwen knew very well. It was not Celebrían, or Faye. The woman that stood over her now, who took off her flowing white cloak and gently wrapped her in the warm material, was someone she knew and loved, but had seen only once before in person.
"Galadriel. . ."
For the fourth time that night, Elrond stood and looked out the balcony of his study, staring up at the stars. His concern for his wife and daughter had not yet abated; in fact, it had grown worse as time passed. Now he looked out his door every fifteen minutes or so, as if searching for an omen in the stars, something through which he could gain a bit of comfort.
His concern was not unjustified. Celebrían should have reached Lorién by now; he should have gotten a message from Galadriel. But he had received nothing. No word from anyone as to the health and happiness of his beloved Celebrían and their Undomiél.
"Master Elrond?"
Elrond turned. Glorfindel was standing at the door, a calm smile on his face. For a moment, Elrond's spirits lifted. Perhaps Glorfindel was relaying a message.
"A visitor for you," Glorfindel said, nodding and stepping aside.
For a moment, Elrond was greatly disappointed, then corrected himself when a gray-cloaked old man came walking into his study. Even in his worst moods, Elrond would never be able to deny a visit from one of his closest friends.
"Gandalf," he said warmly, approaching to greet the old wizard.
"Lord Elrond," Gandalf replied, returning the greeting. "I was in the area, and I decided to stop by."
"Indeed," Elrond said. "Although it is rather late to be calling, my old friend."
Some of Elrond's anxiety eased as he, Gandalf, and Glorfindel sat down in chairs around the fire to catch up on old times. Chances like this were few and far between for him, so Elrond savored the opportunity to relax. For a moment, he wondered why he had been so concerned. Celebrían and Arwen were probably sitting comfortably in Lorién, talking with the Lord and Lady or perhaps listening to one of Faye's stories. Maybe. . .
A loud, ear-splitting screech echoed outside, and immediately Elrond was on his feet and heading to the balcony, Glorfindel and Gandalf by his side. Already, there was activity below, as every eye in Rivendell turned to the skies to locate the source of the horrible sound. For a moment, Elrond could only see sky and stars, but then a black shadow materialized. It swayed back and forth, shrieking again as it swooped towards the ground. For a moment, Elrond was unable to determine what it was. Then, it came in close enough to be illuminated by the firelight of the lampposts scattered about Rivendell, and he realized it was a giant black bat. The bat was clearly injured, for one of its wing membranes was torn, and as it flew overhead foul-smelling black blood rained down on them.
"What is that beast?" Glorfindel asked.
Suddenly, the bat turned in midair, throwing its head back and screaming. The sound was unnatural, and as Elrond winced against the pain in his ears, he almost didn't see the bat drop something. It fell through the air and landed with a wet thud not far from the balcony. It didn't take Elrond long to realize the object was a person. Blood was already staining the grass.
The bat banked and came back, heading for the body, but it suddenly spotted them, and stopped in mid-dive. It glared at them with glowing yellow eyes, then screeched and barreled toward them, maw open to reveal bloody fangs.
"Look out!" Glorfindel shouted.
The bat came within feet of the balcony before Gandalf brought his staff to bear. A bright white light flashed, and with an ear-splitting shriek of pain the bat abandoned its attack, flying out of range of Gandalf's light.
"Away with you, demon!" Gandalf shouted.
The bat turned, and for a moment, it was visible against the stars.
"Beware, Elrond," it hissed. "There will be others."
Then, it was gone, flying off into the night, leaving behind a thick trail of vile black blood. For a moment, Elrond was stunned, unable to do or say anything as Gandalf lowered his staff.
"Come," Gandalf said. "We must find out who that creature left behind."
By the time Elrond, Gandalf, and Glorfindel made it out into the gardens, several others had already gathered around the body, keeping a considerable distance away. For a moment, Elrond couldn't bring himself to believe it was once human. Although still in one piece, gaping wounds showed bone and muscle through marble-white skin. Clothing hung in tattered strips from the limbs and torso, and long matted blood-soaked hair hid the face from view.
"Poor wretched creature," Glorfindel said, shaking his head.
Elrond turned to one of the gathered, meaning to order the body removed, when to his astonishment, it drew back one partially-shredded arm and rolled over onto its side. Now, the face was in full view, and gasps of recognition sounded. Elrond almost shouted out in terror.
The wretched creature was Faye. The right side of her face was split open, and her scalp was torn, but of all her body her face seemed to be the most intact. She stared up at them with milky, glazed eyes, and opened her mouth slightly.
"I. . ." she wheezed. "I. . ."
"Do not speak," Elrond said firmly, kneeling by her side. He looked up. "Glorfindel, fetch a stretcher. We need to get her inside."
"No," Faye whispered. "I. . .I'm sorry. . .I'm sorry. . .Elrond."
"Do not speak," Elrond repeated, feeling the panic rise in his heart. "You need to save your strength."
Faye stared up at him, and after a moment, a single blood tear slid from the corner of her eye.
"I'm sorry," she said again. "I. . .I. . .failed." She hesitated, another tear falling. "Celebrían. . ."
Her eyes slowly slid closed, and with a final rattling sigh she fell silent. All color faded from Elrond's face. He barely heard Gandalf approach, and didn't acknowledge it when the old wizard settled a hand on his shoulder.
"Come, my friend," Gandalf said. "She is gone."
"No," Elrond said dully, standing. "Not yet." He looked up at those standing around him, noticing that Glorfindel had returned. "Move her to my study. I'll be there in a moment."
He then turned and walked deeper into the gardens, Gandalf following. Finding an old stone bench, he sank down onto it and rested his head in his hands, trying to compose himself. Gandalf sat beside him.
"What was that creature?" Elrond asked, after several minutes of tense silence.
"One long believed dead," Gandalf admitted grimly. "It was Thuringwethil, the messenger of Sauron. She must be trying to seek revenge for her master."
"Faye was with my wife and daughter," Elrond said, turning to him. "I believed them safe with her, for she is a powerful and protective creature. If Thuringwethil did that to her. . .what of Celebrían and Arwen?"
"If Celebrían and Arwen were dead, you would know," Gandalf replied. "Where were they going?"
"They were heading to Lorién," Elrond replied, his grief and terror quickly being replaced by fury. "I'm going after them. I will not allow that creature to hurt my wife and daughter!"
Quickly, he stood and headed back. Glorfindel was waiting for him when he arrived.
"Call back my sons and assemble a rescue party," Elrond commanded. "We ride at dawn."
Galadriel, the White Lady of Lorién, had known what was going to happen even before it occurred. Startled awake in the dead hours of the night by a nightmare so vivid it took her breath away, she had immediately rushed to her mirror for an explanation. Her mirror had shown her exactly what she had prayed not to see: her daughter, her beloved Celebrían, in pain at the hands of brutish Orcs, and her granddaughter fighting for her life. She had immediately assembled a search party.
Now, as she stared down at Arwen lying almost dead in the snow, she knew it was too late. Some miracle had given Arwen the chance to escape, but at what cost? How many lay dead in the Redhorn Pass? Surely it couldn't be. . .no, Celebrían was still alive. Galadriel would have known it if her daughter was. . .
Carefully she gathered her granddaughter in her arms, hearing her husband approach. Lord Celeborn had a grim look on his face.
"I'll send Rumil and Orophin back with you," he said, gently taking Arwen and carrying her over to Galadriel's waiting horse. "You'll be able to care for her better at Caras Galadhon."
Galadriel did not protest as her husband helped her up behind Arwen. She could feel the young she-Elf trembling underneath her cloak, and she carefully put an arm around her, securing Arwen's broken arm. Celeborn gently grasped her free hand, and Galadriel looked down at him.
"Find our daughter," she said. "She is still alive."
Celeborn nodded, the gentle look in his eyes sealing his silent promise. Galadriel turned her horse around and began the long ride back, Orophin and Rumil riding close behind. There was no danger for any of them here, but still the three days it took for Galadriel to return to her home were the longest of her life. Arwen had been stranded there for at least two days, and needed more aid than Galadriel could offer her on horseback.
The night following her arrival at Caras Galadhon, Galadriel sat at Arwen's bedside, fighting to keep herself composed. She had seen no stir of life in Arwen since finding her, though her wounds had been expertly tended to. She gently grasped Arwen's hand, rubbing it gently as if hoping that the generated warmth would create some spark of consciousness. She closed her eyes and bowed her head, praying softly. She could sense Celebrían only dimly, but that tiny spark did nothing to reassure her. It did not tell her if Celebrían was suffering.
Suddenly, a messenger appeared in the doorway, and Galadriel glanced at him wearily.
"A message from Lord Celeborn," he said, bowing respectfully. "They have searched the Redhorn Pass and its surrounding areas, but have yet to find anything. He recommends you send a message to Lord Elrond."
Galadriel sat up a little more. In her concern for Arwen and Celebrían, she had completely forgotten to send word to Elrond. Silently scolding herself for the mental lapse, she turned back to the messenger and nodded.
"Thank you," she said softly.
The messenger bowed again and departed. Galadriel sighed and stood, glancing back at Arwen before moving towards the doorway.
She was halfway to the door when, suddenly, she was struck by a wave of horrific pain that started in her shoulder and spread throughout her body. Galadriel cried out and crumpled to the floor, seeing in her mind a towering shadowy figure with glowing yellow eyes, knowing full well she was seeing what Celebrían was seeing. Slowly, the vision faded, and she opened her eyes to see two of her maids and the messenger standing over her. Her maids helped her into a nearby chair, begging her to tell them the source of her pain. She waved them away, looking sharply at the messenger while trying to ignore the agony that still raged within her.
"Send word to my husband immediately," she snapped. "Tell him he's running out of time."
Quickly, the messenger departed. Galadriel stood, bracing herself against the slight disorientation, and looked again to Arwen. The young she-Elf was writhing in mental torment, feeling exactly what she was feeling. Her maids looked panicked, but Galadriel waved to them again to calm them.
"There's nothing we can do," she said wearily, stumbling to Arwen's bedside and leaning against one of the posts. "She feels Celebrían's torment."
"What about Lord Elrond?" one of the maids asked timidly.
Galadriel looked at her maids, seeing the fear in their eyes.
"He knows," she murmured. "He knows now, just as Arwen does."
Then, the strength of Celebrían's suffering overwhelmed Galadriel, and she slowly slid to the floor, blackness engulfing her senses. Before she faded completely, however, she heard one final desperate plea.
"Mother, help me. . . ."

Endometriosis, Social Pathologies, and Public Health
Endofound Org
By: Endometriosis Is a Social Justice Issue
Jhumka Gupta Social epidemiologist; Public voices fellow, OpEd Project
The following are the remarks prepared by Jhumka Gupta, ScD, for the third annual worldwide EndoMarch in Washington, D.C., that took place on March 19, 2016 (World Endometriosis Day). Dr. Gupta delivered the keynote address for this event.
First of all, I'd like to thank all the women, girls, and the people who care about them for coming to this event. I'd like to thank the organizers for putting this on, for the very gracious introduction, and for inviting me to speak. I feel honored to be here today with all of you.
I was given the task of talking about my work on violence against women and public health, and relating it to endometriosis. To do this, I'll start by sharing a story from when I was in college. I was volunteering with children living with HIV, right here in Washington DC. I thought that if we could just give women information on how HIV was spread, and simply give them condoms, then the disease would go away. But I soon realized how wrong and naïve I was — and this really influenced how I began my public health career in violence against women. I learned from talking to some of the women that they knew about condoms, but they were scared of violence from their partners, and so they couldn't demand to protect themselves. One woman said that when she tried to get help, her friends and family would blame her for "starting trouble". I've since met so many other women facing violence. Whether it was in West Africa, survivors of sex trafficking in India, or those impacted by sexual assault right here on our college campuses, the health of women and girls was being threatened, not just because of diseases or viruses that could be seen under the microscope or an MRI, but also by social pathologies that lead 1 in 3 women to experience violence worldwide, and the US is no exception. What do I mean by social pathologies? I am talking about gender inequality, social injustice, and attitudes of society that keep women and girls from fully reaching their potential.
And what does any of this have to do with endometriosis? Endometriosis is also a disease of social pathologies just as much as it is a disease where cells similar to the uterine lining existing outside of the uterus. Because of social pathology, women are told generation after generation that pain is just something they must endure. It's social pathology that fails to make more people angry that women lose $230 in earnings every week due to this disease. It's social pathology that made me repeatedly miss school as a teenager and in college, but kept me from getting a name for my disease until age 24. It's social pathology that gives us the science to see a planet far, far away, but doesn't give us the science to use imaging toaccurately diagnose endometriosis without surgery. And because of social pathology, the endometriosis on my nerves was overlooked, and thus I could barely walk or sit at my father's bedside during the last few weeks of his life. And it's social pathology that causes friends, family members, teachers, and the medical establishment to question our reality, and actually, blame women with endometriosis for bringing on the condition or for unsuccessful treatments.
So, yes, the scarring and damage to organs happen because of the physical pathology of endometriosis, but it is the social pathology that creates the silent epidemic of endometriosis. It's the similar dismissal of women's concerns that I see in my work on violence against women. But, as one of my favorite writers, Arundhati Roy, so correctly states, "There's really no such thing as the 'voiceless'. There are only the deliberately silenced, or the preferably unheard."
So the question is, how can endometriosis go from the "preferably unheard" to a priority in the public health world? Today marks a remarkable event to begin this shift. We can be inspired by other social justice and health movements. TheHIV/AIDS activism from the 1980's challenged the public health field to live up to its mission, "fulfilling society's interest in assuring the conditions in which people can be healthy". Medical care alone wasn't going to cut it. Passing out information or health education materials alone wasn't going to cut it—-and these strategies alone almost never do—-they needed to challenge power. Organizations such asACT-UP (which stands for the AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power) challenged elected officials, the FDA, and the NIH by demanding access to drugs and better use of HIV/AIDS research funding. They changed the way things were done so that those who were 'preferably unheard' (gay communities, women, and people of color) would benefit. They organized themselves well, they staged demonstrations—in media offices, at medical meetings. ACT-UP also formed alliances with leaders in the HIV field—researchers, physicians, government officials, other advocates. But what was important was that these alliances didn't stop them from holding everyone accountable —-because the health and human rights of the 'preferably unheard' came first. And thanks to their efforts, life-saving drugs became more affordable—and better care for women with HIV was made possible.
Imagine what we could accomplish if we could join together and hold media accountable for accurate facts on endometriosis—if we could expect that when people fight for reproductive rights, they are also fighting for endometriosis alongside sex education and access to contraceptives and if we could demand more research funding towards treatments. I am fortunate enough to call a well-known activist who worked with ACT-UP, whose name is Gregg Gonsalves, a colleague, and I told him all about our march. I asked him, what advice would he share for a disease that has barely made a dent in the psyche of the public health world. He said to "act up, fight back, fight endometriosis. A little anger and rage directed properly (and non-violently) goes a long way towards social change."
So, as we fight the social pathologies of endometriosis, we can also learn from the challenges faced by other health and social justice movements, by proactively addressing—very early on— our blind spots. In my work on violence against women, immigrant women were vulnerable if their abusive partners destroyed their immigration documents, but nobody was initially talking about this or other issues unique to women of color. Another blind spot was teen dating violence, because we used to only think of domestic violence as happening to adult women who-who were married. I am encouraged by looking around this room that we are already on our way to reducing these blind spots for endometriosis. We need to make sure that our advocacy platforms also benefit transgender patients and lesbian women. We need to fight so that quality excision surgery is accessible to all women regardless of their income, and regardless of their zip code. We need to continue to speak up for women with all forms of suffering—whether it's relieved with one or two quality excision surgeries or whether endometriosis persists even after multiple attempts. But let me be clear, none of these things are or should be divisive—-instead, these are the very things that will make this movement stronger.
We definitely have our work cut out for us—-but being here, in solidarity, is such an important step. Those of you have the disease, I want to acknowledge it's certainly not easy to travel and plan when you're juggling your own health and other life priorities. You've already taken an important step in showing everyone that the woman or girl who suffers from endometriosis should not be the one feeling shame. The shame should rest on those who systematically disregard her voice.
So as I wrap up, I want to focus not on the women and girls with endo—-because you're already fighters—but on those of you, friends, partners, and family, and the professionals who came to support them. Your presence is so important. But what we need from you extends well beyond today. Again, I draw on my experience with fighting violence against women. We are big believers in the "bystander approach", where we call on our communities to take ownership of violence against women and speak up and interrupt potentially dangerous situations and sexist language. We need you to take ownership of the problem of endometriosis and be an interrupter of its social pathologies. We need you to be an interrupter and speak up when you overhear others say that women over-exaggerate their pain. We need you to speak up when you learn of a teenage girl missing school due to her periods. We need you to speak up when you hear people say that endometriosis is not a real disease. We need you to be an interrupter and remind people that suffering can be visible and invisible so that they too are aware of their blind spots.
Thank you and I look forward to marching with you.

I'm at a Starbucks waiting for it to become 6:30pm so I can meet the other members of the Writer's Guild I just joined. We're going to meet at nearby restaurant for dinner, and then begin a process of exploring each others' work. Each of us had to print six copies consisting of 10-20 pages of our work. The idea is that we'll each have two weeks to read each others' work, then meet again, and talk about it.
The first meeting was "Write Only." It mostly amounted to a lot of talking about our projects, as well as about Writing in general. This time, the focus will be on critique. I must admit I'm a bit scared to bare my artistic soul to six total strangers, especially after I saw the way I reacted to the earlier critique of three years past. Hopefully, I'm in a generally better place in life these days, as well as more distanced emotionally from some of the more difficult themes I hope to address in this piece.
I have been wanting to write a proper, more in-depth email about it, but let me say when I got to the bottom of the document, I was clicking wondering why it was not going down anymore. Then I realized I had read it all! I wanted more. I was immediately hooked. Captivated. I had planned on reading it a little at a time, but read the whole thing in one sitting.
I now believe I know what Mark Twain meant when he said: "I can live for two weeks off of a compliment." After I read those words, I instantly ascended into a state of such artistic elation that my growling stomach was placated without receiving a single bite. Three years ago, all I was getting was mockery and ridicule. But upon hearing the words that every Writer loves to hear, it was at least three hours before things like eating or sleeping had any appeal. Why should I bother with feeding my stomach or resting my mind? Somebody somewhere had just fed my soul.

by Joy LaPrade | Jan 15, 2016 | Blog, Community, Mission, Redemption, Worship
This blog is in conjunction with our current sermon series entitled "Acts".
It has been published in our Acts Devotional Guide, Volume 2. You can download it in full for Kindle on Amazon.
Jeremy Rose was at the beach when God called him to plant a church. His choice of books for beach reading may have had something to do with it. Rose was reading the book of Acts along with a commentary for one of his seminary classes.
Today, he remembers the call clearly:
"It just hit me. God spoke to me and told me to plant a church."
Rose added that God has given him a heart for those who may be alienated from or uncomfortable with existing churches: the "artistic, herbal, green, tattooed, pierced, punk, post-postmodern, city dwellers of our culture."
Rose heard God's call in early 2007, at Sunset Beach, N.C. Today, he is pastor of The Axis Church, which is attended by around 300 of Nashville's urbanites. Rose explains that God called him to these people, rather than to the activity of "church planting."
That call came in early 2007, at Sunset Beach, N.C. Today, Rose is pastor of The Axis Church, which is attended by around 300 of Nashville's "hip, cool, trendy" 20-somethings. Rose explains that God called him to these people, rather than to the activity of "church planting."
"Church planting is not mainly about planting churches. It's mainly about making disciples." Even though his father, grandfather, and great grandfather were pastors and church planters, and although Rose himself has been preaching and involved in ministry since he was a teenager, he says God's call to plant a church came from relationships he had outside of the church.
"Many of my friends who I have been close to throughout school sports and construction (I have been an electrician for nearly 20 years) wanted nothing to do with church. It broke my heart. I wanted them to be involved in something I loved, but I understood why they didn't like it or were confused by it. A lot of Axis is the way it is in order to be sensitive to those who haven't been raised in the church or for those who have been deeply wounded by the church." Rose said he understands the reasons these people have rejected what they know of the church and Christianity, and he sees them too: hypocrisy and selfrighteousness, "ignoring Jesus except for Sundays and the election."
"In some ways, I feel I know what's busted with 'church' today which makes it easy to hate on it, to throw rocks at it — OR — I could love on it, and I could use the rocks that are being thrown at it as the very resource to help rebuild it. This is my calling."
In this calling to reach those who haven't been part of the church, Rose is not aiming to give them a church, but instead to bring them into relationship with Jesus. This is reflected in The Axis Church vision statement: "Our vision is to see the Real Jesus made famous in our city because He changes everything."
