While the US had provided the American M7 105mm HMC ("Priest") to the Commonwealth forces, it was not popular due to the fact that 105mm was not a standard British caliber and they preferred the 25-pdr gun/howitzer as a standardized weapons system. So experiments were carried out to adopt the same concept and layout of the M7 Priest to use the 25 pounder on a Canadian Ram chassis (basically the same M3 chassis used for the M7).
The new hull incorporated British design concepts (driver on the right, not the left) and fittings to include British radio sets and mountings for Bren light machine guns vice the "pulpit" for the M2 .50 caliber which had given the Priest its nickname. Keeping in the same line (showing a good sense of humor!) the new gun was nicknamed the Sexton. Production began at the Montreal Locomotive Works (Canadian branch of the famous ALCO works, who built medium tanks in the US) in late 1943 and provided some 2,150 self-propelled guns to the Commonwealth forces. Easy to service and maintain, they remained in service into the 1960s with some Commonwealth forces.
The "BUT" comes in as it is a perfect match to the vehicle currently residing on the floor at "Firepower", the Royal Artillery Museum at Woolwich, England. I took a number of photos of that vehicle and all of the details captured by my camera are present here in the kit, such as the "cage" in front of the radio set to prevent damage and the loading port in the left side of the hull. But this is most likely a vehicle which remained in service well into the late 1950s or even 1960s with the Territorial Forces (e.g. reserves) and as such I do not have a way to determine how much was changed from WWII.
It has all of the hallmarks of a very late production vehicle – "upswept" trailing bogies with "spoked" welded road wheels, "solid" drivers, welded idlers, a three-piece transmission cover with guards for the lights, cargo rails on either side of the engine deck, and the British pattern of steel cleat tracks. Earlier versions of the vehicle apparently had M3 style (top mounted return roller) bogies and either WE210 rubber or CMP cast tracks, no rear stowage bins, and other detail differences.
Also, there are no Bren guns provided for the hull even though the mount bases are present.
The model uses the hull from a DML M4 early production version with binning molded onto the floor. The kit also comes with the large sprues for the M4 generic suspension with different styles of wheels and "flat" bogies plus the add-on sprues for the "spoked" wheels and "upswept" bogies. As noted the tracks are DS Plastic one-piece runs; unlike the helpful hints in their 1/72 scale kits DML does not tell you how long they have to be to give a tight but correct fit, so the modeler will have to trial and error (these usually run a bit long and have to be shortened, but as the plastic can be cemented together with styrene cement it usually is not difficult to fix).
The basic parts for the 25-pounder come on one sprue from the Mark II kit and on one of the Sexton sprues, and while all styrene they look quite serviceable.
The interior parts are fairly complete, but the ammunition lockers in the right rear section of the open hull come closed so "in action" posing will take some scratchbuilding or after-market bits.
A considerable amount of detailing is provided for the engine deck, such as all of the pioneer tools (more than on a regular tank), cable reels, stowage boxes, and etched brass strapping and engine air intake. This is over a very shallow spot on the engine deck, and some modelers may wish to open it up to provide greater depth.
Design credit goes to Hirohisa Takada, but I know several others also participated in the research and design work on this kit.
Five finishing options are provided: 147th (Essex Yeomanry) Field Regiment, RHA, Normandy 1944 (black over olive, stars, F3-45, S233972, "FEE"); 4th Field Regiment, RHA, 4th Armoured Brigade, Weert, 1944 (black over olive, stars, S234006, "Via Simba"); Unidentified Unit, Northwest Europe 1944 (black over olive, stars, S233964, F4-45); 13th Regiment, RHA (HAC), Northwest Europe 1944 (olive, stars, 76, no census number, "HANNIBAL III"); Unidentified Unit, Northwest Europe 1945 (olive, small stars, S233861, no markings). All have their census numbers provided via a "number jungle" on a small sheet of Cartograf decals. There have been some comments on the Internet about the markings but all were researched by Ron Volstad during the painting of the box art; associations may not be corrected based on who noted them in original materials.
Overall this is an excellent model and one with a long period of usefulness and application, and with some tweaking and apropos figures can be used until fairly recent times.
One item I missed on the review is that the Sexton II used the reinforced bogie carriers developed in Canada for the Ram and not standard Sherman type bogies. The kit does not provide them. They can be obtained either after market or the more adventurous modeler can modify the kit ones to match. Attached is a photo of one of these bogies on the Sexton II at Firepower.
Also the short-pitched cast single pin tracks are CDP type, not CMP.

The discovery engine services provide the implementation of a discovery server) that hosts one or more discovery engines.
A discovery engine is a server capability that runs Open Discovery Services on request.
The discovery engine is initialized with information about the Discovery Engine OMAS it should connect with to retrieve information about the discovery services and to record their results.
The discovery engine provides a REST API to request that a specific discovery service is run for an asset, or that all applicable discovery services are run for the asset.
The results of each of these calls is a discovery analysis report.
The discovery engine calls the Discovery Engine OMAS to retrieve information about the Asset's supported discovery services and to attach the discovery analysis report to the Asset.

A two-car collision in Madison County on Oct. 26 resulted in the death of a woman and child.
Two people were killed Friday in a two-car collision in Madison County.
A 19-year-old woman and a 5-year-old child died in the crash, Madison County Sheriff's Sgt. Richard King said. The crash occurred around 7:40 a.m on Riverside Drive.
The Madison County Sheriff's Office is still investigating the cause of the crash, but King said narcotics and alcohol were not involved. Law enforcement officials think one vehicle lost control, resulting in "somewhat of a head-on collision," King said.
The driver of the other vehicle involved in the collision sustained minor injuries and was taken to a local hospital, King said.

Juiced-to-order

For the many Americans who are trying to get fit, running sounds like a great way to get in shape. But running after kids, running errands, and running the laundry machine can be exhausting to many parents and adults—leaving them sapped of the time and energy for good nutrition and true exercise.
It was out of this new parent exhaustion that Renee Peters first discovered her passion for juicing.
"To get all the nutrients I needed when my children were young was challenging," says Peters. "I found that the juicing lifestyle helped me to get more concentrated nutrition. It was also something fun to do, and I could provide it for my children as well."
Peters and her husband, Tim, realized that there was a market of other people who wanted the nutritional benefits of juicing—without the work of doing it themselves and with the promise of good taste. Out of this idea came Zula Juice.
Renee explains that a lot of people will try juicing and they will give up, because they don't get the ingredients right and the taste isn't what they want.
Zula Juice launched its website in October 2013, and began offering the Twin Cities public eight varieties of raw, organic, cold-pressed juices. Bottled in 16-oz, single-serving containers, Zula Juice's offerings include 'Beet Retreat,' 'Carrot Plunge,' and 'Cashew Dream,' among others.
Freshness may be the single most key element that sets their product apart. "All of the juices that are ordered on our web site are juiced-to-order," explains Renee. "We juice it, bottle it, and immediately deliver it to our customer.
"We are passionate about the true juicing lifestyle—getting that juice fresh. The benefits of the juice are highest when the juice is fresh."
Zula Juice offers delivery across the state of Minnesota and free delivery within 15 miles of its commercial kitchen, located in St. Paul, Minnesota (55420).
The Peters went to AURI for nutritional analysis and labeling, which can be a tricky and expensive process for juice products when done by a private lab. In addition, the timing of an analysis is important, because nutrients are highest right when the juice has been pressed.
"There is a taste difference when you have fresh juice," explains AURI's Charan Wadhawan, who assisted the Peters. "There can be a lot more flavor."
Zula Juice's top selling offering is its 'cleanse pack,' for either a one-day or three-day juice cleanse.
"The idea is to give the digestive system a break and flood it with all the phytonutrients and vitamins that are naturally occurring in the juice," says Renee. "You drink six juices all day, and nothing else other than water. There can also be a weight loss benefit, and it can be a jumpstart into a healthier lifestyle.

To implement the AARRR model in your small business without a general plan or a clear understanding for its operations, its niche market, its audience or its products/services may be proved more problematic than it seems.
This particular model presupposes clarity on operations, SMART goals, and an entrepreneur mindset. Furthermore, it requires an experimentation mindset to help you and your team implement quickly some winning approaches and remove elements does not any more work.
An effective relationship building procedure should be targeted to the development of a loyal audience gathered around your brand, product/services, agency having as a basic underlying hypothesis that you operate in a certain way in order to provide constant value to your audience.
To do so, you need to gain trust and provide beyond the average value-added services to the people you have selected to serve.
This is the reason you need at first, define for your small business what kind of relationship want and with whom.
To reach that state though you need to define your niche market, your audience, and your products/services in the light of the existing marketplace. When these requirements are met, you need to find out and to develop innovative ways to build a relationship with the people you think they can help your business.
If you follow the AARRR model as a basic template for building meaningful and impactful relationships, you have many approaches to implement for developing the right kind of relationships with the right kind of people (for your business).
You need, first, to find out where your prospects and clients come from and how to attract them to your agency, firm or products. This is the 2 first phases of the model, the acquisition and activation phase.
As a small business owner who hasn't have too many resources, you need innovative and original ways to help you do that. You need to listen what your niche market has to say and find out if there are problems, or areas needs improvement in which you can intervene to.
To find more information you need to gather all the right information and filtered in the light of your skills, products, knowledge, etc. and find solutions which would provide value to your prospects.
You also need to work a little harder on acquisition part since you need to come in contact with many different people and professionals in order to find the members of your audience.
This step is connected with the requirements of your niche market and with your ability to produce solutions for them.
One of the first things you want to do is to setup proper operations and systems to help you "listen" to your market.
When this is done, you start building a suitable relationship with people would have a meaning for you and your business and help you multiply your impact in the market.
Following the lead of the AARRR model, as a small business owner you can develop or use models, systems or tools does not cost too much but can help you disseminate your message in a larger audience.
(Research Market Requirements): You can use many tools most of which cost nothing. Among them, you can develop questionnaires and surveys with Google Forms to collect input from prospects and clients (you can use also documented methods to help you analyze the results, as the ASK Method is or other proven approaches for collecting and process requirements). You can also visit sites like Amazon, Google Trends, Quora, Udemy, Clarify, Teachery, Teachable, Thinkific, SkillShare, etc. or more specialized forums to collect more requirements from your niche market. You can also develop an early warning system using a free service like Google Alarm. You can process and filter the results using Google Docs and similar free tools. The possibilities are actually too many today.
Acquisition: To attract people to your brand, agency you need to use a mixture of traditional and digital marketing approaches. There are many ways you can do that, among which: development of a blog/site, SEO optimization, content & responsive marketing, reviews, advertising, guest posting, interaction in specialized groups and forums, outreach, social media (LinkedIn especially), participation in relating events, etc. This step for small business owners takes a little more time because it involves personal touch and interaction. You need to "know" the people you talk to and not, just, collect their email address. And you need to understand their requirements. This step will make you know to a broad audience but would have a zero effect if you don't follow the next step.
Activation: This step aims at making prospect understand the value you provide and in order to keep on informed by you to trade you their e-mail or become your subscribers. Only when someone gives you his/her email you can be sure that he/she is interested in what you offer. In relationship terms, you need to add him/her in a CRM in order to track the interaction with this person and send him/her information, newsletters, emails and briefs with information and data of his/her interest. The database of the emails you going to collect is one of the pillars of your future business.
Retention: Is not enough to collect 1,000 or even 10,000 emails or subscribers. You need to collect the right ones and the ones you can interact effectively with. And you need to maintain by offering them a stream of constant value. You can use your content for that, courses or webinars but the point is that you need to find ways to build stronger relationships with your subscribers and strengthen their ties with your brand. In this framework, you can communicate proactively with many of them, send them separate emails with offers and news, invitations for special events, etc. You also need to develop appropriate communication channels with your clients, for receiving first what's going on and where there are complains. Such channels may a be telephone, the email, a help desk, the social media, etc.
Revenue: There is no point to have too many subscribers if you don't make any money of them. You need to develop relationships with the people are able to pay you for your services/products and can benefited big time from what your offering. For this reason you need to focus on further promotion and sales, by developing and distributing shareable content, whitepaper, and freebies can save hours to the final user but does not cost anything to you (besides hard work, of course!) Revenue of course is not your only index, but you need to have a minimum revenue in order having your services and systems going on and keep on providing top services and updates of your lines of products/services. In this level, your main focus for effective relationship building is to embed or use the proper technologies and operation which would permit you personalization of your services/products and messages towards your clients.
Referral: A really effective relationship building operation is the one that by providing more value facilitate the users to promote it to further audiences. There are many tools and operations you can use here. In this context you can use, technologies as social sharing buttons, social lists integration and every piece of technology can facilitate the use and help him/her promote your content to other users.
Following the lead of the AARRR model, I believe that you would have a blueprint to help you develop effective relationship building operations for your small business.

This dating site hopes to destigmatize polygamy | The Daily Dot
Kelsch polygamist dating, #1 polygamy dating site online!
As a high school freshman, he tried to keep the family's secret from his new classmates. Which made our ears perk up like a cat that hears tuna.
In the cities and suburbs, the polygamist husbands single men dating with two kids usually nomads, said Irwin Altman, a psychology professor at the University of Utah. Other parents never regained custody of their children.
On January 28,Jeffs again asserted his leadership of the denomination. The same day two teenage girls reportedly fled the towns with the aid of activist Flora Jessop, who advocates plural wives' escape from polygamy. I have NOT read the book.
They don't wear prairie dresses or put their hair in braids or a bun, the style consistent among FLDS women. They take jobs or work from home to help support their families. After the allegations against their parents were proven false, Flora helped them flee state custody together on February 15, and they ended up in Salt Lake City at Fawn Holm's brother Carl's house.
According to one report, the warrants involved the misuse of funds and caused the Hildale Public Safety Department to be shut down.
All of them turned themselves in to police in Kingman, Arizonawithin days. Dennis stole money from Virginia Hill to the tune of over 1 million dollars, then forced his wives to live in trailers with no heat and no light and they had to dumpster dive in order to eat while he scrounged to pay Virginia Hill off After the raid, polygamists continued to live there; inShort Creek was renamed Colorado City.
Wilde, for example, helped run a Mormon publishing house from her home. According to law enforcement authorities in Utah and Arizona, many other polygamists are divided among about 11 kundtsches rohr simulation dating, societies or orders, though Wilde said some of those groups have faded away, have few members or lack religious legitimacy.
Allan Keate fathered a child with a year-old girl. Fischer, who was a salesman for a wooden cabinetry business in Hildale, claimed church officials interfered with his relationship with his employer and blacklisted him.
The youngest of the three went to Warren Jeffs. One thing or two gave him away. After having everyone I know tell me that it would work better than an Ambien to put me to sleep, why would I bother? George, Utahand a jury found him guilty of two counts of being an accomplice to rape. Court papers from a custody battle involving two of their rebellious teenage daughters say Kingston has at least a kelsch polygamist dating other wives.
When asked about kelsch polygamist dating, Kingston has invoked his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination. The youngsters' father is an occasional visitor who acknowledges another woman as his only legal wife.
Many of Utah's polygamists draw a sharp distinction between themselves and the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, the polygamous sect raided by Texas authorities earlier this month because of allegations of physical and sexual abuse. But the mainstream Mormon church renounced polygamy more than a century ago and strongly disavows any connection to them.

If pressed, she will add that she is not legally married. Sometimes the truth comes out. In Novemberchurch member David Allred purchased "as a hunting retreat" the 1,acre 5.
He was sentenced to 33 years in prison. YFZ Ranch In Aprilacting on the outcry of an alleged teen victim of physical and sexual abuse at the FLDS compound in Schleicher County, Texas, Texas Child Protective Services and Department of Public Safety officers entered the compound to serve search and arrest warrants and carry out court orders designed to protect children.

The parties eventually settled the case for an agreed amount of damages to Shem Fischer. Each wife gets her own house; the men sneak around, often without a home to call their own. At least 37, men, women and children live in polygamous families from Canada to Mexico, with most of them in Utah, according to Wilde, who has become an activist for plural marriage.
She was married to a polygamist, a man who divided his time among his various wives, visiting her once a week at her house in the suburbs. Mothers hold themselves out as single parents to PTA or school officials if they have to explain.
This dating site hopes to destigmatize polygamy
While the raid on the West Texas sect earlier this month has focused attention on polygamists who live in communal fashion and dress like 19th-century pioneers, many polygamists are very much part of the modern world, and live right next door in cities, suburbs and small towns across the West.
Here's what we were told: Allegedly, Valerie became "unsealed" from Dennis when Dennis failed to support his wives.
After the raid[ edit ] You can help by adding to it. Joe Darger, would you want to clarify this for us? While some men in rural Utah build large barracks-style houses with separate entrances to accommodate multiple wives, many of the state's polygamists are unattached to any particular sect or clan and live almost invisibly, under rather conventional-looking circumstances.
He is believed to have more than children. The two girls, Fawn Broadbent and Fawn Holm, soon found themselves in a highly publicized dispute over their freedom and custody.
Judge Walther's ruling was subsequently reversed by the 3rd Court of Appeals in Austin, Texas in a ruling that Texas CPS was not justified in removing every child from the ranch.
Jeffs was tried in St.

The neighbors had their suspicions, but they never questioned her. That's not true, according to our sources. In black dress pants and a white blouse with a charcoal-colored jacket, Heidi Foster looks like any other year-old suburban Salt Lake City mom, albeit with 10 children in her home.
On November 20,after the conviction of then leader Warren Jeffsattorneys for Jeffs released the following statement: Nielsen as the president of the sect.
Friday, December 9, WOW!!!
Law enforcement agencies do not dispute her figures. According to evidence admitted at trial, Raymond Merril Jessop sexually assaulted a year-old girl to whom he had been "spiritually married" when the girl was 15 years old. But that is not usually a problem in a state where many lifelong residents can trace polygamy in the family tree, and where law enforcement authorities rarely prosecute the offense.
Jessopa former first counselor, as his successor or, alternatively, that Jeffs had told Jessop on January 24, that he Jeffs had never been the rightful leader of the FLDS.
Kelsch, now a year-old manager of a door-manufacturing shop, said he had a half-brother of the same age in the same class.
Short Creek raid[ edit ] Main article: The district court granted summary judgment in favor of the company and found that Fischer was not fired from his job, but quit instead. She gave birth to a son less than a year later.
April raid[ edit ] Main article: Most Utah women in polygamous marriages are indistinguishable from other women. For privacy, some said they had to take a drive in their car," said Altman, co-author of the book "Polygamous Families in Contemporary Society. Attempts to overturn the illegality based on right of religious freedom have been ignored due to the fact that the polygamist practices of the FLDS church are harmful to women.
Of those children, were not allowed to return to their parents for more than two years. According to a Salt Lake Tribune telephone transcript, there is evidence that, when incarcerated, Warren Jeffs made statements naming William E. The men usually wait 10 years after a first marriage to start accumulating more wives.
Foster belongs to the Kingston clan, a 1,member group based in the Salt Lake City area but scattered across the Intermountain West.
