Santi Martino e Sebastiano degli Svizzeri ou Igreja dos Santos Martinho e Sebastião dos Suíços é um oratório no Vaticano construído pelo papa Pio V, em 1568, para servir como capela privada para a Pontifícia Guarda Suíça, cujos alojamentos estão localizados junto a Porta San Pellegrino, perto do Palácio Apostólico. Ela é considerada uma das igrejas nacionais da Suíça em Roma.

A capela está localizada no caminho percorrido diariamente pelos guardas, no caminho dos alojamentos até o Portone di Bronzo, e fica aberta dia e noite para eles. Batismos e matrimônios de membros da Guarda Suíça também podem ser celebrados ali com a permissão do padre da paróquia de Sant'Anna in Vaticano.

História
A Guarda Suíça passou a servir o papa em Roma em 1506. O papa Pio V ordenou a construção da capela, estritamente reservada para eles, atrás do bastião de Nicolau V. A construção do edifício remonta ao ano de 1568 e foi dirigida pelo arquiteto Nanni di Baccio Bigio. A igreja foi dedicada a São Martinho de Tours e São Sebastião, ambos santos militares. São Martinho era um oficial no exército romano que se dedicou à vida asceta e monástica depois de sua conversão. São Sebastião foi nomeado capitão da Guarda Pretoriana dos imperadores Diocleciano e Maximiano, mas acabou martirizado por ser cristão.

Até a Paz de Vestfália (1648), os guardas suíços, que falavam alemão, se reuniam em Santa Maria della Pietà in Campo Santo Teutonico, onde havia um altar numa capela lateral reservado para eles. Entre 1657 e 1977, os guardas utilizaram também San Pellegrino in Vaticano para seus serviços religiosos.

Exterior
A fachada clássica é composta por quatro grandes colunas dórica sustentamento um entablamento. A inscrição "PIUS V P.M.", mencionada por Forcella, desapareceu. O frontão, que não abarca todo o comprimento do telhado, está decorado com o brasão de Pio V. A porta é encimada por um pequeno frontão triangular coroado por uma grande vigia. Em 1999, o edifício foi ampliado.

Interior
A capela estava decorada com afrescos de Giulio Mazzoni, um pupilo de Vasari. Eles foram renovados em 1727-8 por Carlo Roncelli e finalmente removidos para os Museus Vaticanos em 1967 por motivos conservacionais. O afresco sobre o altar é "Deus Pai", o da esquerda é "São Martinho" e o da direita, "São Sebastião". A peça-de-altar é uma "Anunciação da Virgem". Na parede direita, perto do altar, está uma "Crucificação de Jesus com São Pedro e São João Evangelista"; na esquerda, "Madona com o Menino e Santa Ana". Mazzoni colaborou com o artista de estuque Ferrante Moreschi, que realizou parte do estuque da Sala Regia em 1565.

How can I get an extract of access rights by user, licence type, active status?
I have 81 unrestricted licenced users, split between Creator and Studio licences. To be able to rationalise these, I'd like to get an extract of access rights by user, licence type and active status.
Unfortunately, CA support have indicated this would have be via CA Services and chargeable.
The alternative is going into each of the 81 users and exporting their rights individually.
Any help or guidance that can be give would be very much appreciated.
So you could build a simple portlet using that sort of SQL and 'export to excel' the output.
Alternatively does the administration menu - License Information portlet(s) help at all?
I am sure you can use both of them to achieve the data that you are looking for. Also, I have checked and seen that you can also extract the result of these 2 portlets into Excel or PowerPoint. Hope that helps.
I'm not a developer, I'm an administrator/super user. The above will be a time consuming exercise.
to create a rights tool which gives the required license which would limit the the rights and users you need to check from the portlets.
In Advanced Reporting, take a look at the following reports and see if they can help you out.


Research by Lloyd's Banking Group has revealed that corporations in the oil and gas sector could contribute up to 34,000 new jobs over the next couple of years.
According to the bank's findings, 77 per cent of companies said they were planning to expand during this time, with the vast majority (86 per cent) saying that this would come from organic growth and not from mergers and acquisitions.
Organic growth of a company is defined as development by means of an increase in output per customer or representative of the firm, coming from expansion of the existing business as it is as opposed to by joining with other companies.
Interestingly, a third of respondents in the survey said a lack of skills was the biggest challenge that they would face in light of expansion.
Stuart White, area director of Lloyds Bank Commercial Banking north of Scotland, said: "The 100 companies we surveyed have committed to creating 5,000 jobs, which, if replicated across the industry, would see tens of thousands of jobs created over the next two years."

A like-kind exchange of personal or real property often comes with a lot of questions. These exchanges can be complex and confusing – especially for taxpayers who haven't previously done a 1031 exchange. Here are a few of the most frequently asked questions about New York 1031 exchanges. If you have any additional questions about like-kind exchanges in New York, don't hesitate to reach out to our qualified intermediaries – 877.373.1031.
What is a 1031 Exchange & Why Should I Do One?
A 1031 exchange is a method of tax deferral outlined in the Internal Revenue Code. It allows taxpayers to defer their capital gains taxes on the sale of real property so long as they move all of their sales proceeds into another like-kind property. This allows you to avoid a large tax hit and continue your investment into a bigger property – thus compounding your wealth over time.
What Types of Property Qualify for 1031 Exchange?
Another important thing to consider is whether or not your property even qualifies for 1031 exchange treatment. Not all property is considered eligible. First of all, your property needs to be held for business or investment purposes. Property that you have held primarily for your own personal use (like your family home or car) are exempted outright. Next, you have to have replacement property that is "like-kind" to your relinquished property.
What are the Requirements of a Typical 1031 Exchange?
All 1031 exchanges of real estate or personal property have to meet certain requirements to be considered valid. The first is the 180 day time period. You have 180 days in total to complete your like-kind exchange. That clock starts right after your sell your relinquished property. The first 45 days of that timeline are set aside for identifying replacement property. You also need to make sure your value, equity, and debt go up when you move your proceeds into your replacement property. Finally, it's essential to avoid receiving any of the net proceeds from the sale of your relinquished property. Those funds need to be separated and moved directly into the new property.

Corporate governance refers to actions taken by organizations to improve relationships and interactions with others, including consumers, stakeholders, and business partners, such as engaging in community activities and promoting good environmental practices. Corporate governance includes a set of rules, procedures and operational structure that guides the short-term and long-term actions of companies. Northern River Financial assists clients with actionable strategies including establishing codes of conduct for employees and balancing the interests of all stakeholders.
Corporate governance exists in organizations of all sizes. It sets a structure for internal operations as well as external affairs. Corporate governance impacts behavior and conduct at all levels of organizational operations, making it a key device for guiding actions of interns, entry-level workers, managers, and CEOs in different departments. Corporate governance outlines policies and practices designed to balance the needs and interests of all stakeholders, including management, customers, government, financing organizations and the broader community. In addition to guiding the actions and behaviors of employees and behind-the-scenes operations, corporate governance establishes a public image. Most companies strive for high levels of corporate governance, which includes efforts to improve community relationships and engage in environmentally-sound practices. These organizations express good corporate citizenship, including providing transparency into their operations and promoting ethical practices.
Canada has its own corporate governance rules and regulations. The resulting financial and reputational repercussions of non-compliance are greater than ever before. Northern River Financial guides clients through the rapidly changing environment and the sheer volume of material make it challenging to understand the rules and best practice of corporate governance. In addition, since much of the guidance is general in nature, boards and management need to carefully determine the specific strategies and actions to undertake.

I was a plein air landscape painter for over 20 years and I have been puzzled by my "leave it all behind" jump into clay. I saw no continuity. Today I saw the connection. My landscapes always had movement. The brushstrokes looked as if blown by the wind, ever restless. My sculptures have a similar restless quality. They are always in motion. The figures twist and arch.
The horse is totally dry and I am adding wings of wet clay.
This is the start of a new season. Much is happening. I am in several shows right now and the next push is to get new work started. The drying time for clay can be weeks in the winter so I am waiting to fire and having some trouble starting the next set as I contemplate my newly finished work.
I want to include you in my process. The ideas start as a glimmer at the back of my brain that eventually become drawings in my sketchbook. Between the drawings and the finished stage of the work a lot of magic happens that I can never fully explain.
I'm featured on page 89 of this informative new publication.
I am represented now by Coastal Eddy, a gallery on the Pacific Coast Highway in Laguna Beach.
The address is 1417 S. Coast Hwy, Laguna Beach.

Quality Audio Solutions Are Good for Business
How to counteract the negative psychological, health, productivity and performance impacts of bad audio
When we think of the loud, constant, and often jarring sounds we contend with on a daily basis, we tend to think of them as "annoyances." They're irritating, interruptive, and have a way of getting on your nerves.
According to research from the premium audio equipment manufacturer EPOS, 95 percent of the modern workforce today admits that their concentration at work suffers from audio setbacks. Forty-four percent of end-users report poor sound quality while making phone calls; 39 percent feel the same about internet calls.
But this "bad audio" goes well beyond merely "annoying." It has a profoundly negative and debilitating effect on our well-being, leading to negative impacts on productivity, performance, and overall well-being.
Jesper Kock, Vice President of Research and Development for EPOS, says bad audio can have profound effects on performance and health.
"If you've ever experienced a day filled with interrupted and inefficient calls it can feel exhausting," Kock says. "This is because the brain is wasting unnecessary energy and cognitive capacity to focus on the relevant and desired sound."
How serious are the effects?
"Chronic brain fatigue and increased levels of cortisol can lead to long-term issues," Kock explains. "Exposure to noises that activate a stress response will inevitably wear an individual down, causing both mental and physical problems. When extrapolated over a period spanning days, weeks, and months this can have a surprisingly detrimental impact on your well-being. "
Bad audio has taken on an entirely new dimension during the COVID-19 pandemic. While there are many noises associated with a typical workday, working from home presents an entirely new set of noises and distractions, especially if you happen to have school-age children at home.
"With much of the global workforce continuing to work remotely, background noise continues to be a major threat not only to our productivity but to our health," Kock says.
"These interruptive sounds might be a concentration killer, but they are also negatively impacting our health. While some might think that continued exposure might lead to habituation, this is incorrect. The effects of interruptive sounds can exacerbate stress-related conditions like high blood pressure, headaches, and even coronary diseases."
Negative impacts extend to business
These auditory distractions also have seriously negative impacts on business. Audio pain points are adding up to lost productivity. In fact, on average end-users are losing 29 minutes per week due to poor sound quality on voice calls. For the average full-time worker, this equates to just over three days of lost time, and from an employer perspective, this lost productivity has significant cost repercussions.
Decision-makers surveyed by EPOS noted that poor audio quality on calls has meant dissatisfied clients, financial loss due to incorrectly undertaking a task, loss of a key piece of work and deals--all resulting in financial loss to the company.
The solution: noise cancellation headsets and beyond
The good news is that there are audio technology solutions that can minimize these deleterious consequences. EPOS, for example, builds headsets that provide users with the benefit of passive noise cancelation but add an extra level of noise reduction by effectively removing lower frequency sound waves.
They have raised the bar on active noise cancellation (ANC) technology with their latest ADAPT headset product series, which uses pioneering Hybrid ANC technology. These solutions are specifically designed to adjust to the noise challenges of open office environments and beyond. They have the ability to isolate and pick up only the sound of the person who is speaking--even if they are in an environment with a lot of unwanted stimuli.
The technology detects ambient noise and generates anti-noise to cancel it out before it reaches the user's ears. The result is a dramatic increase in the worker's ability to concentrate in noisy environments, and it boosts general well-being throughout the working day.
While EPOS audio solutions are not inexpensive, Kock insists the premium investment more than pays for itself.
"When you invest in a quality audio solution, you're not only investing in your people, you're investing in your business," he says. "We know that within the 2020 context, the importance of quality audio solutions is only rising."
"The size of your business doesn't matter--we're all facing the same challenges. Audio quality has now become key to maintaining client, employee, and partner communication, and this has been exponentially increased as workforces continue to work remotely. Effective call quality leads to better customer service, stronger employee engagement, and greater collaboration."

Four high-profile downtown office towers that recently attracted out-of-state buyers have become embroiled in disputes over their property tax assessments.
Buyers from California to New York swooped into the Indianapolis real estate market over the past three years, paying $49 million for Capital Center and a whopping $195.5 million for Chase Tower. In between, Market Tower sold for $52.7 million and Regions Tower for $67.9 million.
Assessments for property tax purposes are supposed to hinge on those prices, at least in part, after Indiana's 2002 switch to a market-based system that features annual adjustments to values based on sales. Indiana's previous system reassessed properties once a decade.
But the system still leaves plenty of room for disagreement, based on the four transactions and the assessment appeals that followed.
That appears to hold most true for Chase Tower, which Boston-based Commonwealth REIT bought in November 2012 from Beacon Capital Partners, also of Boston.
The Marion County Assessor's Office values the 905,000-square-foot tower, the 153,000-square-foot Monument Circle office building connected to it, and an accompanying parking garage at $161.3 million. That's $34 million less than what the buyer paid.
At first glance, it would seem the county is losing out on valuable property-tax revenue. The Assessor's Office, however, can't value a property solely on purchase price, Assessor Joseph O'Connor said.
Industry experts say Commonwealth REIT's purchase price is more reflective of the long-term tenants signed and other intangibles that an assessment simply cannot measure. Signature tenant JPMorgan Chase, for instance, is signed through 2025.
The 3-year-old Chase Tower transaction still is the richest yet on a per-square-foot basis ($190) for a multitenant downtown Indianapolis office building.
In spite of the low assessment of Chase Tower, Commonwealth REIT has mounted a challenge.
Faegre Baker Daniels is representing the owner in its appeal.
The firm also represents New York-based Nightingale Group, which bought Regions Tower in September 2014 from a group that included IBJ Media co-owners Michael Maurer and Robert Schloss.
Nightingale, too, is challenging its assessment, even though it's lower than the purchase price by $15 million. But a steep and sudden rise in assessed value might have triggered the appeal.
The assessed value of Regions Tower rose dramatically—from $33.6 million in 2011 to $52.1 million in 2013, according to county records. But much of the increase undoubtedly is due to improvements done to the building's façade after a storm blew out dozens of windows in 2006.
Paul declined to say how much either of the firm's clients thinks their assessments should be. Buildings assessed at higher values than their sale prices are more obvious targets for appeal.
Santa Monica, California-based Hertz Investment Group paid $49 million in February 2013 for Capital Center North and South at 201 and 205 N. Illinois St. The Assessor's Office valued the property the previous year at $56.4 million. Hertz appealed and reached a settlement in which the buildings and parking garage now are assessed for what the company paid.
In another deal, Chicago-based Zeller Realty Group shelled out $52.7 million in October to buy Market Tower at 10 W. Market St. out of foreclosure. Embattled Indianapolis-based developer HDG Mansur had owned the building at the northeast corner of Market and Illinois streets.
The Assessor's Office valued Market Tower and its parking garage in 2013 at $69 million. Following Zeller's purchase, the company sought and received a lower assessment of $55 million—still more than $2 million above what Zeller paid for the property.
For Zeller, the settlement was painless, said Mark Vollbrecht, who manages Zeller's Indiana operations.
The Assessor's Office is somewhat hamstrung by a small staff that nonetheless wants to assess properties fairly, Paul said.


The My Hero Academia series has many colorful characters who all stand out among other anime series. The My Hero Academia shirt features fice of the most popular characters on the show with the Japanese text of the title and the English version above it. The 100% cotton tshirt is all black and allows the bright red, yellow and white graphic to stand out boldly against the contrasting black shirt. It's a wonderful My Hero Academia gift for men who are fans of the show.


Ask Virginia Secretary of Commerce and Trade Maurice Jones what he would do if he could do only one thing to improve the state's economy and he has a ready answer.
Jones gave a brief presentation on "The State of the Commonwealth" as part of the business school's Entrepreneurship Week, before fielding questions from several of the roughly 75 people who attended the talk at Stimpson Auditorium in Halpin-Harrison Hall.
Jones was appointed secretary of commerce and trade by new Gov. Terry McAuliffe in January. He previously served as deputy secretary for the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development from April 2012 through January 2014.
Of the 20 largest employers in the commonwealth, 13 are in the public sector, said Jones, and Virginia's growth rate has been slow because of its reliance on the public sector. The state is growing its low-wage jobs at four times the rate it's growing it's high-wage jobs.
It is a risk to the commonwealth, he said, but it's also a big opportunity to diversify and grow the private sector.
Jones listed five areas he believes the commonwealth should focus on to diversify. There must be a focus on building adequate infrastructure, creating a positive business climate, encouraging more people to start businesses, on what local businesses already excel at and growing in those areas and educating and recruiting talented workers.
He also emphasized educating students in the areas of math, technology, engineering and science.
"That's really the sweet spot," he said.
Jones also emphasized the "incredible array of assets" the commonwealth has. It has a stable 6 percent corporate tax rate — one of the lowest in the nation — that has not risen since 1972.
He also praised the Port of Virginia, one of the deepest ports on the East Coast, as being integral to the commonwealth's commerce, as well as its central location. Virginia is within a 10-hour drive of 60 percent of the nation's population.
He also cited the state's 5.6 percent unemployment rate, which is lower than the nation's 5.8 percent and the southeast's 6.8 percent, as proof of the strength of Virginia's economy.
When asked what the biggest problem facing the Shenandoah Valley is, Jones said the area's tough competition.
He cited Mecklenburg County in southern Virginia, which he said is the largest data center in the world for Microsoft.

Are you tired of body con outfits yet? Good news is, designers globally have been embracing gender bending, anti-fit outfits for a few seasons now. Not to say that we have anything against a well fitted outfit or even body con for that matter, but some days it's nice to be dressed in airy tees, dresses and pants. Androgynous fashion blurs the line between gender specific clothing and doesn't need to be separated by gender. Though over the years boyfriend trend has been popular, this January the Gucci runway had ambiguous outfits featuring massive pussycat bow blouses, shrunken jackets, and low-slung, wide-leg trousers—on willowy models with matching soft features and lengthy, undone hair. Gender-neutral dressing is gaining popularity as designers and brands are creating unisex lines.
When I first saw this trend, I was a little skeptical about giving it a shot. Like Karl Lagerfeld said, 'Trendy is the last stage before tacky'. Given that I'm petite, I felt like I'd look like I was wearing a sack. But the allure of androgynous fashion, comfort and trying something new was too strong for me to ignore.
When in Mumbai this earlier this year, Sneaky Ninja introduced me to designer and overall awesome human, Manish Bansal. Manish's forte is menswear and he recently opened his flagship store in Shahpur Jat, New Delhi. His first summer resort unisex collection titled Friends And Fences, sets-forth a unisex range that embodies an exuberant youth like vibe, read a statement.With a colour palette of indigo, white and faun which relates to the "New Age" – the ability to use the higher mind to choose friendship over fences. Needless to say both Sneaky and I, fell in love with the use of traditional Indian embroidery techniques to create fresh new art-works of fences with certain rawness to it. The relaxed fit & androgyny of the pieces are perfect gender bender.
Try a dress first: If you are comfortable in dresses, this may be the easiest way to try the anti fit trend, without the hassle of thinking of what to pair individual pieces with. Try a tee shirt dress like Sneaky Ninja did. The idea is to let the dress be the highlight and not fuss too much with accessories. Of course that doesn't apply to us, we like OTT 😀 Pair it with brogues, combat booties or sneakers to complete your gender bending outfit.
Mixing fit and anti-fit – Wear your dad or boyfriend's shirt with a belt clinched at the waist or sweat shirts with a fitted skirt so you don't look like a sack.
Accesssorise: If you are scared to experiment with androgynous clothes you could begin with androgynous shoes like oxfords with dresses instead of wedges or a bowtie with a fitted shirt.
If you have other ideas on how to wear androgynous, anti fit outfits, do leave us a comment below.

OSACT 2014 : Workshop on Free/Open-Source Arabic Corpora and Corpora Processing Tools
27 May 2014 through 27 May 2014
, Reykjavik (Iceland)
http://www.kacstac.org.sa/osact/index.html
For Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Computational Linguistics (CL) communities, it was a known situation that Arabic is a resource poor language. This situation was thought to be the reason why there is a lack of corpus based studies in Arabic. However, the last years witnessed the emergence of new considerably free Arabic corpora and in lesser extent Arabic corpora processing tools.
Freely available Arabic corpora can be divided into two groups. The first group contains large Arabic corpora, which are designed and constructed basically for Arabic linguistics research and activities, and maybe for Arabic NLP. These corpora are diverse in the genres they cover and their sizes range from one million words to 700 million words. The second group contains corpora that were designed basically for Arabic text classification and clustering, they mainly contain newspapers' articles. They range from less than 1 million words to 11 million words.
Some Arabic corpora are available on the web to explore using different tools, basically large corpora, while other corpora are only available for download. For the corpora that are available for download, the user may need to use standalone corpus processing tools. These tools contain many functionality such as word frequency, concordance, collocation, etc. Therefore, with the availability of large and diverse Arabic corpora, the situation does not change. There is still a lack of Arabic corpus base studies. Is this because of representativeness of these corpora? The available functions and tools associated with these corpora? or is it because they are not well known enough for the Arabic linguistics community?
Motivation and topics of interest
This half-day-workshop aims to encourage the researchers and developers to foster the utilization of freely available Arabic corpora and open source Arabic corpora processing tools and help in highlighting the drawbacks of these resources and discuss techniques and approaches on how to improve them. The workshop topics include but not limited to:
1.	Surveying and criticizing the design of freely available Arabic corpora, their associated tools and stand alone Arabic corpora processing tools.
2.	The applications and uses of freely available Arabic language resources in fields such as Arabic language education e.g. L1 and L2.
3.	Arabic language modeling.
4.	Corpus based Arabic lexigraphy.
5.	Lexical semantics and word sense.
6.	Corpus based Arabic syntactic.
7.	Corpus based Arabic morphology.
8.	Development of Arabic mobile applications based on the available Arabic language resources.
9.	Evaluation and assessment of Arabic Corpora and Corpora Processing Tools.
10.	Future directions of Free/Open Arabic Corpora and Corpora Processing Tools.
Submission deadline: 10 February 2014
Notification of acceptance: 10 March 2013
Final submission of manuscripts: 21 March 2014
Workshop date: 27 May 2014 (morning session)
The language of the workshop is English and submissions should be with respect to LREC 2014 paper submission instructions. All papers will be peer reviewed possibly by three independent referees. Papers must be submitted electronically in PDF format to the STAR system. When submitting a paper from the START page, authors will be asked to provide essential information about resources (in a broad sense, i.e. also technologies, standards, evaluation kits, etc.) that have been used for the work described in the paper or are a new result of your research. Moreover, ELRA encourages all LREC authors to share the described LRs (data, tools, services, etc.), to enable their reuse, replicability of experiments, including evaluation ones, etc.

The more athletes know, the better they can manage the risk of a positive test. Athletes should take the time to read through this short list highlighting just a few of the top 2018 World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) Prohibited List changes and prohibited substances that impact athletes.
Even though the topics discussed at the 2017 Science Symposium were highly technical, there are some key takeaways for everyone impacted by anti-doping science and rules.
In 2018, the Prohibited List has a number of changes of which athletes and support personnel need to be aware. Read through the changes.
How Does a Substance Become Prohibited?
Under the World Anti-Doping Code, the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) issues an annual List of Prohibited Substances and Methods, known as the Prohibited List, which is one of five International Standards. WADA reviews scientific and medical research, while also consulting with others in the anti-doping community, to make annual updates to the Prohibited List.
Following the resolution of a recent case involving zeranol, USADA would like to emphasize that there is an extremely small risk of encountering zeranol-tainted meat in the U.S. and subsequently testing positive in a doping control test.


Hi. My name's Daisy, and I don't do wrapping paper. I have a problem in general with single-use items. Plastic grocery bags, plastic spoons, straws, the works. I'm constantly working at eliminating or at least minimizing the impact we have on the planet.
Back to wrapping paper. It's single-use at its worst. I was almost excited when I saw a post from the county's Recycling and Solid Waste's Facebook page.
Take a look. Here's a quote.
Avid recyclers know that wrapping paper and tissue are not accepted in our local recycling program. Local paper mills that recycle the paper we sell them ask us not to accept wrapping paper.
I won't buy it. It's a waste of money and a waste, period.
I will, however, reuse wrapping paper. I'm one of those people: I unwrap gifts carefully and set aside the paper for reuse.
I reuse gift bags multiple times.
That tissue? I reuse it, too. When it's no longer in good enough shape to stuff a gift bag, I use it to cushion ornaments and decorations when we put them away.
And so it goes, my friends and family. I am a bit of a curmudgeon when it comes to wrapping paper. I love Christmas, I do. But where commercial wrapping paper is concerned, I'm the Grinch.
Final Jeopardy Category was Religion. The answer read, "Famous Catholics who've publicly answered this question include Susan Boyle (sweets) & Paul Ryan (beer)." The question?
"What are you giving up for Lent?" Of course. Now if you're not Catholic (I'm not), Lent might not be a time of personal sacrifice. In Wisconsin, Lent might be an opportunity to find the best Friday Fish Fries.
Let's go a different angle on the "giving up" philosophy. I've been slowly and steadily de-junking and de-cluttering our home. My process is fairly simple. I keep an old, worn out laundry basket in my closet, and every time I find something to donate to a thrift store, it goes in the basket. When the basket is full, I take inventory and go to a donation site. The basket doesn't come home, either – it was worn out or breaking apart, anyway.
I saw the 40 Bags in 40 Days challenge and thought, "Sure, why not? This will speed up the process of what I'm already doing. Maybe my blogger and reader friends would like to join in, too." So just in case you're interested, here are the main links.
You can also like or follow her Facebook page.
Rather than throw out or donate a full bag each day, I'm either throwing something away, tossing a stack into the donation basket, or setting aside something for a potential summer garage sale. No matter what, the "something" will be significant. A tiny key ring or scarf will not be enough to qualify. Can the significance be emotional rather than size? Maybe. I'll see how it goes.
I started today by sorting through a basket of linens I bought at an online estate auction. The napkins I'll keep. The bandannas from various fundraisers will go in the donation basket. The basket itself will go out in the sale in June. The scarves? I don't know yet. I might run them through the laundry and then decide if I'll wear them, sell them, or send them off in the basket.
I'm not ending with a question for you, readers, not this time. I'm asking myself: can I make it? My prediction is yes. After all, I'm still making room for all the canning jars I bought a few months ago.
Top shelf, left to right: salsa; jams and jellies galore.
Lower shelf, left to right: applesauces (in at least three variations); juice concentrates; pickles, dill and sweet.
Bottom shelf: canning pots and a pretty blue aluminum stock pot.
Middle shelf: tomatoes; more tomatoes; enchilada sauce; tiny jars of jellies and jams, perfect for gift giving.
Top shelf: apple preserves (a.k.a. pie filling), more applesauce, and pear sauce.
Highest shelf: old laptop computers. This will eventually (hopefully) get cleared off and ready for more canned goods. Next year. Maybe.
This used to house small containers.
Now it's tomato sauce, tomato sauce, and more tomato sauce.
But where did I put the awkward and odd shaped small containers?
In my older, worn canner and a spare I picked up at a thrift store.
There you have it, folks. Storage, Daisy style. One problem: I don't have room for the empty jars. Not that many jars are empty at the moment.
Stock pot, that is. For cooking. And canning. You didn't think I was aiming my gardening talents in a new direction, did you?
I have an ordinary kitchen stock pot. It's a good size, heats up evenly, and cleans fairly well, too. BUT – the nonstick coating is wearing through. I don't really know what the coating is or was, whether it's toxic or fine, just fine. I've made many, many jams and jellies in it. Now that the underlying material is showing, I don't know if it's safe for canning anymore. So let's look at the rest of my stock (pun intended) in the basement.
To the right of my hot water bath canners are two other pots.
The one in front, next to the bright blue, heats quickly: too quickly. It allows applesauce or pear sauce to burn to the bottom of it before the mix boils down, and that's not a good trait. It may be aluminum, too, which would take it out of the "non-reactive" category most canning requires. Lovely though it is, this pot might go to the thrift store with the next donation batch.
I found the bright blue in a second hand store. It heats quickly and evenly. It has thick sides that keep the heat in, and I haven't burned anything in it – yet. BUT – this lovely stock pot has a few weaknesses, too. The handles heat up, which means hot pads on both hands whether I'm stirring or lifting or dumping. It's nonmagnetic (except for the handles), meaning it's most likely aluminum, too. #*@&!
I won't even analyze the cast iron Dutch oven. We love it, but it's heavy and it can be difficult to clean. I season it every time I use it, hoping the cast iron will eventually have just the right coating. Cast iron, like aluminum, is also reactive.
So, my friends, there you have it. The search, so far unsuccessful, for the perfect stock pot. When I find the perfect match, I'll use it for jams, jellies, butters (not you, Buttercup, so be quiet), pickles, salsas, and more.
I have a 3 gallon Redwing stoneware crock that I bought at an antique mall. I also found a very large (6 gallon, I estimate) that had a huge crack in it. I caulked the crack in the crock, and then set it aside. I plan to plant in both crocks.
I lost out on a few crocks in online auctions, and I was bummed. Then I saw a generic label of "Lots of Crocks" in another auction. On closer examination, I recognized that one was a 2 gallon Redwing crock, dirty and possibly cracked. The others might or might not be good enough to use as planters along with those I already had, but it was worth a try.
Yesterday I brought them home.
You can't get a good look at them in the dark garage, so I moved them outside for some natural light.
Did it cost one dollar and 59 cents, or one and 59/100 of a penny?
Butter from Sheboygan; and a lot of stain or rust.
And finally, the crock that led me to bid on this lot.
My plan: with baking soda and salt, perhaps a vinegar/water rinse, and a lot of bow grease, I'll see how these pretty little crocks clean up. Then I'll decide what to plant in each one. Chives might do well in the #3.
What do you think, readers? Do you think these crocks have a future? Do you have advice for cleaning them?
Folks who've been reading me for a while might remember that I had a papasan turned planter in my front yard. I now have a new-to-me papasan and a few more goodies.
On the table: a few herbs and an experiment: hula berries.
On the ground: purple hued grasses, hopefully due to grow taller. In front, the puppy with geraniums in place of doggie dishes. The puppy (a thrift store fun find) has faded in the years I've had him/her in the rock garden, but it's always fun to find a pot or two to display in the pup. The other pot on the ground is actually a wooden bucket surrounded with what looks like bamboo or rattan. I picked it up at a rummage sale and thought it might look good next to the papasan. The table, with its rattan trim, came from the same sale.
I think this scene, so to speak, will evolve as the plants grow. I'll share, I promise!
Maybe it's Trump. Maybe it's the dystopian novels I read so often. My inner paranoid streak or doomsday prepper is begging to get out and take action.
Here's an example. Trump claimed today that if he carries Wisconsin in the primary, he'll go to a Packer game in the fall. Does he have any idea how hard it is to get tickets? Or how long the waiting list is for season tickets? Never mind. Don't answer that.
Our primary election is next week Tuesday. The airwaves are full of campaign ads. The one that makes me slap my forehead and shout "Doh!" is Ted Cruz' commercial that announces he is the only one who can beat Trump. "Do the math!" the announcer demands while showing a bar graph. Frankly, the best candidate to beat Donny Boy isn't on the same primary ticket. Do the math? Someone forgot a variable.
I spent a bundle to restock our medicine cabinet with supplies for spring allergy season. It was costly. It would be more costly if I hadn't stocked up and had needed a last-minute run to the store. By planning ahead, I was able to use two coupons and buy generic store brands. When all the allergic folks start breaking out in sneezes and wheezes, the shelves will be empty except for the expensive varieties.
I've used up the corn in the freezer. If we want corn, we'll have to buy it from the store. We have one container of peas left, and several of beans (green and yellow). We salvaged the last two squash from the basement and noted that next year we need to cook them sooner, not later. I guess the vegetable of choice for the time being will be beans. As the summer arrives, I'll put up more corn, an equal amount of peas, and beans? Let me think about it.
Meanwhile, I'm hearing about schools getting budgets zapped, stripped to the bone. Layoffs are rampant. My job is fairly secure, at least for the time being. I just did a promo for open enrollment a few days ago. Maybe it'll help keep our enrollment up.
But when I go in to vote on Tuesday, I'll have all of these issues on my mind – and more. All politics may be local, and it's also personal. Very personal. Do I need to stock up on toilet paper? Build a chicken coop? Hide my retirement fund in a mattress?
Readers, help me silence my inner doomsday siren. Promise me you'll do the most important prep of all: you'll vote.

I rushed out from the trees, sword in hand, just as the Duke senior and his followers were sitting doen to a meal. I stopped them from eating and told them that I wanted food as I was almost dying of hunger. The courteously asked me to sit down and eat, but I remembered Adam, and replied that I would not eat until he had been fed. He was in the wood, and the Duke and his servants helped me to bring Adam to their hiding place. They then took care of both of us. The Duke welcomed me when he knew that I was the son of his old friend, Sir Rowland de Boys.
Though I continued to live happily with Duke and his friends. I had not forgotten Rosalind. She was always in my thoughts, and I wrote poetry about her and pinned it on the trees in the forest. They served as books and told everyone one looked in the forest how sweet and good Rosalind was. I later came to know Celia and Rosalind saw some of these poems and were puzzled. Then Celia saw me one day, and she and Rosalind guessed that I was the poet.

Roma: Yes, I can understand. My family was hiding on a farm in Germany, not far from Berlin. My father knew a priest and he got us Aryan papers.
Herman: You must have suffered, too, with fear as a constant companion! And yet we both survived, in a new world!
Roma: There was a camp next to our farm. I saw a boy there. I used to throw him apples every day.
Herman: What did he look like?
Roma: He was tall, skinny and hungry. I must have seen him every day for six months.
Herman: I can't believ this! Did he tell you one day not to come back because he was leaving Schlieben?
Roma: Yes! How did you know?

5. B. The next day the boys went in search of another bird which they could put in the cage. They felt terribly guilty for what had happened to the lark, "We have been very careless indeed." they said to each other "We will get another bird and look after it very well." They spoke to their mother and asked her for help to get another bird. However, she was quite angry with them. "You have done a terrible thing, boys," she said. "You have killed an innocent bird. You have no right to put free birds ina cage. How would you like to be shut up in a room all the time and not be allowed to run and play freely? You are never going to cage a bird again. Is that Clear?

Lunark Mission
By Luana Marinho September 17, 2020 No Comments
LUNARK
THE EXPEDITION
During the next year, two young Danish Space Architects, Sebastian, and Karl-Johan will face this question as they design, build, and live for three months in the very first Moon Analogue habitat in the Arctic, Greenland.
Isolated and confined in one of the harshest climates on Earth, they will endure -30°C, hurricane winds, and hungry polar bears.
In the past year, they've established SAGA Space Architects and won several awards for their work. Now they will do their most ambitious project yet.
One of the biggest challenges for the habitat is transportability both for Greenland and for a future Moon mission. By combining the ancient Japanese art of paper folding with the method of biomimicry we have come to a lightweight and strong foldable structure. The challenge lies in translating origami into thicker panels that can still fold. The answer may lie in nature. The final hinge design is a compliant mechanism it's lightweight, strong, airtight, simple to manufacture, and to maintain.
The Habitat Challenges
Exterior like a tank, the interior like a home. While introducing "hygge" and stimulating internal space, the habitat has to face the following arctic and lunar challenges:
Arctic Climate: Temperatures of -30°C and wind speeds of 90 km/h, requires a sturdy habitat with heavy insulation.
Transportable: Shipping stuff to the Moon or Greenland is expensive. We will develop a unique expanding design to save space during transport and maximize space after deployment.
Solar energy: The project simulates a mission to the peak of eternal light on the Moon, which has a similar day-night cycle to the arctic day. We will take full advantage of this by integrating solar panels in the skin of the habitat and supply it with all its energy needs.
Polar Bears: On the Moon, there is a risk of being hit by a meteor. In Greenland, you might get hit by a polar bear. The habitat must withstand a curious 650 kg polar bear.
Zero Waste Ecosystem: The habitat must leave no trace and recycle as much waste as possible.
The habitat features custom SUNBEAMsystem solar panels. They were specially designed to fit the habitat for the LUNARK expedition. They will provide them, energy enough to the whole habitat. In order to maximize the power of the solar panels, the habitat is also equipped with:
– SMART LITHIUM Drive 1300Wh batteries
– MOONRAY MPPT solar charge controllers

The Master of Education in Educational Leadership program is designed to prepare you for a position as a school principal or program leader in the elementary or secondary school.
In addition to on-campus classes, graduate education courses in school administration are offered at off-campus locations in Olympia and Stanwood.
A School Principal or Program Administrator "Certificate Only" program (30 credits) are also available for those who already hold a master's or other advanced degree.
This degree is approved by the Professional Educator's Standards Board (PESB). Its successful completion will qualify you for a Washington Residency P–12 Certificate as a school principal or program administrator.
Applicants who otherwise qualify to enter the educational leadership program and already have a master's or other advanced degree need not complete a second master's degree to obtain certification as a school principal or program administrator.
It is necessary to complete only the school principal or program administrator certification courses (21 credits) and internship (9 credits). The same guidelines and procedures for program admission apply.
A year-long (9-credit) internship is a part of both the master's degree program in Educational Leadership and the Principal Certification-only or Program Administrator-only program. It is a vital, integrative experience in which you perform administrative activities while being supervised in a school-district setting. The primary objective is for you, the intern, to acquire and practice the skills of effective management and leadership. Internship experiences will center on those competencies and skills defined in the Washington Administrative Code and by the National Policy Board for Education Administration.
Each applicant to the educational leadership program must have at least three years of documented successful school-based experience in an instructional role with students, as either a certificated classroom teacher or in an ESA role.
Those in the program administrator program are not required to hold a teaching or ESA certificate, but they must have at least one year of documented successful school, district, or school-site experience.
Applicants who have earned Residency Principal or Program Administrator Certification from SPU may earn the other certificate (either Principal or Program Administrator) by completing 6 additional internship credits.
A valid teaching or ESA certificate and completion of EDAD 6581 are required for those who wish to add a principal certificate.
Students must complete all coursework for the second certificate within three years of earning the previous certificate.
You will usually complete this two-part examination, consisting of a written essay and an oral defense of the answers to these questions, at the end of the program.
You should contact the graduate programs manager to make arrangements for the written portion. The oral defense is arranged individually through the chair of the program. The written test is to be completed prior to the oral defense.
Copy of current Washington state teaching certificate, front and back (not required for Program Administrator Certification candidates).
GRE (Graduate Record Exam) or (MAT) Miller Analogies Test scores taken within five years of application.
Recommendations must come from present principals and other school administrators who recommend support of your pursuit of administrative certification.
At least one of the letters must be from a school-district level administrator who affirms district support for you to conduct a year-long administrative internship, school-based for principal certification and/or district based for a program administrator.
Verification of Experience Form — required for anyone seeking a Washington state Principal Certificate.
*The GRE or MAT will be waived for students who achieved at least either a 3.0 cumulative undergraduate GPA, or a 3.0 in the last 45 credits of completed undergraduate coursework.

A graphic language that leads the way
The V&A Waterfront is South Africa's most popular visitor attraction, with more than 25 million people visiting every year. The Watershed, designed by Wolff Architects, is located within the Waterfront and comprises of four main components: The Craft and Design Market, Wellness Center, Jubilee Exhibition Hall, and Workshop17, a co-working space. Wolff Architects, in collaboration with Kandi, were appointed to develop the V&A Watershed signage and wayfinding system.
The brief was to establish a system that defines the hierarchy between the Watershed and the four activities within, to enhance visitor experience, improve orientation, highlight location of facilities, and to ensure a coherent visual language. The wayfinding, signage strategy and design needed to be incorporated into the architecture of the building. The layout of the building features a 'market street' running through the middle of the building, with suspended floors above, and featuring glass panel walls. The design needed to provide a visually cohesive and eye-catching language, working with existing colour schemes of the Watershed identity of yellow, white, grey and navy.
We developed a visual language using supergraphics applied to glass panels and market 'streets' to define the different areas, a wayfinding map to orientate visitors (strategically placed at decision-making points), and a facility wayfinding system using oversized street pole signs. Line of sight and viewing distances were of utmost importance in the busy 'market' environment.
A critical aspect of the wayfinding system was to improve the knowledge of facility locations. Considerations were taken into account for the toilets being located on level 1 and natural foot traffic through the building being on ground floor. Knowing that many visitors to the V&A Waterfront are international and not all English speaking, we specifically designed the facility signs using symbols instead of written words. In accordance with the Watershed tagline of 'Forever Inspiring', we introduced quirky and fun detailing to the iconography, particularly noticeable in the male and female large toilet signs with Afro hairstyles and textured patterns. A comprehensive manual was developed to document the signage and wayfinding system in its entirety, and provide rules and guiding principles in the design and construction of new signs.
V&A Watershed signage and wayfinding


For International Women's Day I'd like to remember and honor my female ancestors, a few who appear above. As far as I know none of the ones above changed the world in a broad, huge way -- no national heroines among these ladies -- but I know they changed and bettered the world in which they lived, improving their lives and situations and the lives of those they loved, including neighbors and friends. All survived hardships, heartaches, and other difficult challenges. Two lived through travel from England to the U.S. All but one lived through at least one war and several scrimped and saved through the Great Depression. One suffered dementia, another skin cancer, and seven of them lived into old age.
For them, and all the other women in my ancestral lines, I am grateful, knowing that if one of them had not lived I wouldn't be here. Thank you, Mom and grandmothers.
P.S. I know International Women's Day was celebrated yesterday, Wednesday, March 8. Computer problems and inaccessible photos prevented publishing a post yesterday.
