I'm currently going through the rest of the Monster Jam photos.
I'll share them soon in a later post!
Finally got the kayaks out! It felt amazing on the water even though the heat index was well over 100!!
My son got all "A's" on his report card so he earned a trip to Dave 'n' Busters!
I was finally able to make my way out to the Tulip Fest in Albany, New York. It's held every year on Mother's Day weekend in Washington Park. I have been wanting to go for the past couple years but never got the chance to. This year I just barely made it! We went on the last day two hours before it ended. My son and I went on Mother's Day the Sunday before last. I was a little concerned when I continuously heard from others that the crowds were horrendous! By the time we got there though, we parked only a block away and the crowds were minimal. There was plenty of elbow room! The tulips and other flowers were beautiful and everyone was getting their picture taken in front of them. There were a lot of different vendors and a whole section just for art vendors! I definitely want to set up my own booth there in the future!
It was a great place to take a relaxing walk and I enjoyed the time my son and I spent together. It was a great Mother's Day and I enjoyed photographing the park. I hope you like the pictures and if you haven't made your way to Tulip Fest yet, I recommend it for next year! Or have you been to one before? Share your Tulip Fest story or photo below! Thanks for stopping by.
We had a quick break in the rain last weekend where the sun peeked out and the air was warm. My family and I made our way to Schodack Town Park for a peaceful stroll before more rain was due to come that evening. It was nice to finally get out and enjoy the outdoors, the green, the water, the wildlife. I love nature! We found some salamanders that I was able to get a few macro shots of and we also found big beautiful green frogs. I sought out to photography some wildlife and I was able to do just that. I was surprised we did not find any turtles. If your looking for a quiet and easy hike to enjoy some sunshine and see some critters, Schodack Town Park is a good place to start.
Thanks for stopping by! I hope you enjoy the photographs!


Ever wonder why the roof on your 5-year-old house is leaking? It's a simple answer if you, as a homeowner, do not know it yet: The contractor who built your home was cheap. They often try to skimp by with inferior roofing products just to save a buck. The following photos and information are about a repair we performed on a house in a neighborhood that's less than 5 years old - not to mention we have already performed multiple repairs in this neighborhood due to the same problem: cutting-corners, just to save a buck.
When we were in this homeowner's attic, we noticed the rotten wood around the pipe flashing on the roof. As soon as we walked up on the roof, we were quickly able to identify the problem. It was a cheap pipe flashing made of plastic and neoprene. Everyone knows what happens to plastic and rubber when it's in the sun all the time - it deteriorates quickly.
What Is Causing My Roof Problem?
You may say to yourself, "Well, I have a good 30-year shingle on my roof, why am I having this problem?" Plastic products will never last as long as the shingle will. It's a simple roofing fact and an issue we encounter almost on a daily basis.
So what does that leave you to do but make a repair to your new roof? The answer to that is Lead Pipe Flashing instead of plastic and neoprene. A lead pipe flashing will not only last forever but it is among one of the best shingles available for quality roofing.
As you can see in the pictures above, this particular pipe flashing caused a lot of damage to the roof decking and framing. Not to mention the water damage done to the sheetrock inside the home. It's not only dangerous to the home homeowner but could potentially cause health issues from mold in the future.
Bottom line, the contractor saved maybe $75 by cutting this corner resulting the homeowner's payout of about a $1000 in sheetrock and roof repairs.
What Should I Check For In A Roofing Contractor?
When it comes to your roof, it's a major investment into your property. You should expect to get 20-30 years out of a roof, but if you cut corners, it may cost you in the long run. It always does. So when you are thinking about hiring a roofing contractor in Jacksonville, make sure he is not going to use an inferior product on your roof. It could cost you more than you think. When it comes to your roof, the cheapest solution is usually not the best solution.
In this economy, desperate times call for desperate measures and there are roofing contractors out there that are not roofing legally. These companies will do things such as not pay liability insurance, not pay workman's comp, work on the weekends to get out of paying for permits, work undocumented employees etc.
Want to prevent this before it happens? Call Graham Roof and Repair today and get a free estimate!

Social media blackout: GOP's Ryan shuts down Facebook, Twitter
Politico Washington (AP) – Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., is shutting down social media sites on the House floor after the House Ethics Committee voted Thursday to investigate the House Speaker for allegedly using his position to help himself at a private conference.
The House Ethics Panel voted 3-2 to investigate Ryan for violating House rules by using his official position to attend a conference of conservative activists at his home on June 20.
Ryan's spokesman, Greg Stumpf, issued a statement on behalf of the congressman.
The panel voted to investigate because of an alleged violation of House rules and Ryan's use of his official capacity to promote the conference, which was held in a hotel.
Ryan, a Republican from Wisconsin, has apologized for the conference and is considering a legal strategy.

Sometimes it's better to switch off and reconnect to yourself, and to the beautiful nature that surrounds you. I've always loved the outdoors, and I remember a few years back I was hiking all the time, I was spending time with my friends at the mountains, taking trips to amazing places and discovering the world directly. Now life happened in the meantime and I found myself stuck to a desk for days, looking after a baby and not even going out for a few minutes. I believe a lot of people like me can admit this situation has become the norm when living in the city, when you're a mom, or when you're just so busy you forget to look out the window.
That's when booking a stay in one of the Plankbridge luxury huts at Elmley Nature Reserve can change your life, literally. We've spent only one night there and it was almost enough to recharge our batteries. Elmley is a 3,200 acre estate based on an island in the Thames, situated away from the bustle of North Kent, just an hour from London. The perfect escape from your daily routine, you could stay in comfy cosy huts built by Plankbridge, surrounded by inspiring scenery and wonderful wildlife. We were lucky to go on a beautiful spring day, when the nature was coming back to life and the sky was so blue! We could actually see the stars at night, something we're deprived of in gloomy London.
There are hundreds of species of birds and wildlife on the property. We could see rabbits and foxes wondering around on the vast sprawling landscape. This is the perfect place for families, couples, friends who are looking to escape to the countryside and feel truly at one with nature whilst still remaining warm and protected. Elmley Nature Reserve is known for its spectacular scenery and the wide array of wildlife on display. Wander the grounds and take in the sights whilst gazing upon hundreds of species of birds, as well as hares darting around, owls swooping down and seals fishing in the river.
I was never much of a camp girl. Although I loved nature and spending time exploring the outdoors, I could never see myself spending time in a tent in the middle of the dangerous wilderness. Which is why I loved even more staying in one of the Plankbridge huts.
There are five huts on the reserve and each of them offer comfort and beauty. Whether you're in one of the modern dwellings with big windows offering breathtaking views, or one of the more rustic cosy cabins, you can experience the same beautiful nature. The comfy living spaces have comfortable beds, a kitchen area and a toilet with shower, everything anyone could ask for. The craftsmanship and design of the huts are impressive, really well made, lasting for generations.
I am seriously thinking about ordering a hut for my backyard. It will make an amazing guests room, but you can also use it as a garden office, a teenage den, an extension of your home, really stylish, which you can take with you when you move house. There are so many options to choose from when ordering your own shepherd's hut, only one think won't change: the quality and attention to detail needed to create an individual extension to your home.
The Plankbridge luxury huts come with a 20 year guarantee and are built to last using the finest quality materials. Low maintenance wriggly tin or durable Finnish thermowood cladding, insulated timber-lined walls, English oak doors and windows, strong metal chassis and solid cast iron wheels. They have even won four gold stars at RHS Chelsea for their craftsmanship and ingenuity. The Prince of Wales has a hut at Highgrove if you needed another seal of approval.
We stayed in the Damson, which has a floor to ceiling fully opening glass bifold doors perfect for stargazing at night. If you prefer more traditional shepherds huts with vintage chic design and a rustic feel, Elmley has got two cabins fitted with wood burning stoves and no electricity.
The hut has a wood or gas burning stove along with access to home-cooked meals that can be delivered to your door. We had dinner brought to us in a rustic basket and it was earthy, delicious and cooked with local fresh ingredients. These charming and comfortable huts are ideally placed to offer guests unrivalled access to all of this and more.
You can just spend time at the Reserve, relaxing all day long in the hut, taking all the sun in and fresh air outside on the comfortable chairs, making a barbecue on the fire pit, or admiring the wildlife. You can also soak in the Damson's outdoor bath.
There's also plenty to see and do in the area. Explore the pretty towns of Sheppey, Whistable and Faversham. You can also head onto the Kent Downs known for stunning beaches. Canterbury is close by and you can also visit the amazing Leeds Castle.
With epic marsh views and sunrises, Elmley is a stunning destination to unwind and detach from the busyness of the city. We absolutely loved spending time there, and Emma slept through the night which was a first! The fresh air really helped. She was running around the entire day all happy. I was finally smiling because staying in one of the Plankbridge huts you feel this serenity and peace and you just wish the time stops for a little longer.

Brazil's Amazon basin fires keep surging
1 September 2019, Sun
Published: 06:59
The number of fires in Brazil's Amazon basin is still on the rise, even though the government has banned burning, officials said Saturday.
In the first 48 hours since the ban was issued, satellite data from the National Space Research Institute (INPE) showed 3,859 new outbreaks of fire, of which some 2,000 were concentrated in the Amazon region.
From January to the end of August, 51.9 percent of Brazil's recorded 88,816 fires were in the rainforest, according to the INPE, a number experts call a dramatic, direct consequence of farmers' widespread deforestation.
Brazil's Amazon region is in its dry season, but experts note that 2019 has been wetter than previous years -- they also stress that there are no natural fires in the Amazon.
The no-burn decree may have been too little too late, and more of a political than practical gesture, some analysts say.
Deforestation has surged this year as agencies tasked with monitoring illegal activities were weakened by right-wing President Jair Bolsonaro.
Often called the Trump of the Tropics, Bolsonaro has questioned climate change, and argues farmers sometimes need the land for their livelihood.
Since the weekend thousands of troops, firefighters, and aircraft have been deployed, and the defense ministry says the fires are under control.
Bolsonaro claimed in a live Facebook broadcast Thursday "this year's fires are below the average of recent years."
Deforestation for farming is one of the most serious threats to the rainforest and is a problem present in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Peru, Suriname and Venezuela.
Farmers Brazil, Peru, Ecuador and Bolivia commonly set fires in the dry season to clear the undergrowth in deforested areas. However, this often leads to uncontrolled burning, which takes a greater toll on the rainforest.
Much to environmentalists' chagrin, Bolivia's government recently authorized farmers to burn 20 hectares (almost 50 acres) instead of the usual five hectares (12 acres) -- which is believed to have contributed to thousands of wildfires that razed 1.2 million hectares of grassland and forest since May.
Illegal crops also reduce the rainforest, such as Colombian coca cultivation, which covers roughly 170,000 hectares, according to UN data.
Significant damage is also done by illegal mining operations, which is compounded by the use of chemicals such as mercury -- particularly in gold mining -- which contaminates soil and streams.

The Strategy-setting Conference of the Archaeologists of the Near East "Iraq and Syria. Archaeological Heritage Between Risks and Perspectives" is being held in Florence on 16-17 December, 2016. The event is being organised by CAMNES (Center for Ancient Mediterranean and Near Eastern Studies), in collaboration with the Municipality of Florence (UNESCO Office) and the Academy of Arts and Design of Florence. The event is taking place on the occasion of the anniversary of the inscription of the Historic Center of Florence in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
CAMNES and the Municipality of Florence (UNESCO Office) have constituted a Scientific and Organizing Committee, which met in Florence on June 28th with the specific purpose to define and organize this upcoming event. The project behind this conference is based on the fact that the scientific community of archaeologists of the Near East is able to make an active and important contribution in addressing issues related to prevention, conservation and enhancement of archaeological and cultural heritage in contexts currently affected by conflicts, more specifically Iraq and Syria.
The Scientific and Organizing Committee feels it is necessary to bring together all the scholars of this discipline, currently active, involved or potentially interested in projects of excavations and research in Syria and Iraq, with the aim of producing concrete proposals and projects based on the topics of heritage at risk, local strategies of protection, stakeholders, archaeologists as a source of information in the context of crisis and public archaeology and communication.
For more information please see CAMNES website.

Rabbi Shlomo Itzhaki sau Shlomo ben Itzhak, cunoscut sub acronimul Rashi,(în ebraică:
רש"י sau רבי שלמה יצחקי, n. 1040 sau 1041 Troyes - 13 iulie 1105 Troyes) a fost un rabin evreu francez, renumit comentator al Bibliei ebraice și al Talmudului, și fost unul din cei mai însemnați cărturari ai iudaismului din Evul Mediu și exegeți ai Bibliei. Comentariul său la Biblia ebraică (Tanakh, Vechiul Testament), mai ales la cele Cinci cărți ale lui Moise (Pentateuhul, Humash) și la 30 din cele 35 cărți ale Talmudului babilonian  este studiat până în zilele noastre de către credincioșii evrei, inclusiv de către elevii școlilor religioase iudaice. Comentariul la Talmud însoțește toate edițiile tipărite ale Talmudului de la prima ediție tipărită a acestuia de către Daniel Bomberg în anii 1520. cărți. Exegeza biblică a lui Rashi a servit drept bază la peste 300 "supercomentarii" care au analizat opțiunile sale linguistice. Activitatea și comentariile sale au influențat mult edificarea religiei iudaice în generațiile viitoare. Rashi a influențat chiar și exegeza creștină din vremea sa. În aramaică era numit Parshandata פַּרְשַׁנְדָּתָא , "Comentatorul religiei".

Biografie
Rashi a fost copil unic al părinților săi și s-a născut prin anul 1039-1040 la Troyes, în Champagne, în nordul Frantei. Fratele mamei sale a fost Shimon cel Bătrân, rabin al evreilor din Mainz.Shimon era discipol al rabinului Gershom ben Yehuda.  Din partea tatălui său Itzhak Hatzarfati (Isaac Francezul),  Rashi, ar fi făcut parte, se pare, din a 33-a generație de descendenți ai învățatului Yohanan Hasandlar, care el însuși era urmaș din a patra generație al rabinului Gamaliel, care, la rândul său, se spunea că ar fi coborât din regele David
De fapt, în toată opera sa scrisă, Rashi nu a menționat o asemenea pretenție.

SUPPORTING ARTS, MUSIC & LIVE SHOWS
by David Grace | Oct 21, 2021 | Culture and the Arts, media | 0 comments
Eurobodalla Labor for Council today welcomed the latest gifting to the local community of a new piece of public art, a Terrance Plowright sculpture entitled 'Ocean Exuberance'.
Mayoral candidate David Grace said Eurobodalla Shire Council's (ESC) recent decision to install Ocean Exuberance near the entrance to the council's premises in Moruya, as well as to place a second Plowright sculpture 'Oceans' at the entrance to the Basil Sellers Art Gallery was a sensible and positive move.
"The sculptures are said to be worth more than $200,000," Mr Grace said, "but we recognise public art is not simply about the value or the money; it's something that enlivens public and community places, local environments, and the region's towns and villages.
"Eurobodalla has a thriving arts and crafts culture, which enriches our whole community. Every year the River of Art highlights our local artists in all media.
"We can hear our local musicians play regularly in our clubs and bars, and there is a thriving open mic scene at some venues which allows new bands to show their skills," he said.
The existing Eurobodalla public art strategy which supports the important role public art plays in the shire is a policy on which Labor will build and further promote.
"We strongly believe in ESC's commitment to the planning and inclusion of art in public, community, and commercial projects," Mr Grace said. "It celebrates Eurobodalla's rich heritage and is responsive to its cultural diversity showcasing the agricultural and coastal landscapes, small villages and towns, as well as the level of urban consolidation in some of our larger towns.
"There are regular art exhibitions at halls across the shire, as well as street sculpture in our major towns. And of course there are commercial galleries throughout the shire where you can see and buy local art and craftwork.
"Much of this activity is sponsored or supported by the ESC, and Eurobodalla Labor for Council will continue and further develop this tradition.
"Whether it's the Busy Brushes, SouthEast Arts Eurobodalla, the Night Owl Quilters, the Regional Botanic Garden, Gallery Bodalla or River of Art or any other of the dozens of arts groups and organisations in the Eurobodalla, Labor will make a difference further supporting our thriving arts community if we are elected on 4 December," he added.
Eurobodalla Labor for Council candidates in the 4 December local government elections are: for mayor, David Grace in Broulee; and as councillors, Maureen Searson in Batehaven, Matthew Findlay in Batemans Bay, Claire McAsh in Moruya, Deirdre Russack in Narooma, and Jack Egan in Rosedale.

[Editorial] "Practical" Keynote of National Governance Should Remain Intact
Posted January. 09, 2005 22:52,
[Editorial] "Practical" Keynote of National Governance Should Remain Intact. January. 09, 2005 22:52. .
A group of Cheong Wa Dae officials including chief of secretary Kim Woo-sik announced their will to resign, taking responsibility for the recent stir created by the resignation of Lee Ki-jun, the former vice prime minister for education. Whatever the reason, it is obvious that they would have no words to explain their actions, now that their insufficient personnel examinations and alleged favoritism have caused trouble to the president, who publicly resolved to make a fresh start in the New Year. This case should serve as a wake-up call for the government to reshuffle the overall personnel system of Cheong Wa Dae.
Yet, it doesn't follow that practical national governance, advocated by the president, should change, too. At the root of vice prime minister Lee's resignation lies his much-disputed integrity. It should never be interpreted in ideological and political terms. President Roh Moo-hyun, right after appointing him, stressed, "The key to improving this nation's education is securing the competitive edge of universities and restructuring them," adding, "Universities are and should be an industry."
No one would dispute his diagnosis and prescription for a cure. We believe a person who can act on the president's ideas despite the current confusion over vice economic prime minister Lee's resignation should replace him. The last thing that should happen is a recommendation of a person in the name of the ruling circles' collective pursuit for reform, whose qualifications most of the public would doubt. This nation's education should no longer be the subject of their experiments.
The same is also true for other domains of national governance. The President, while addressing the nation marking the New Year, put much store in practicing his plans: resuscitating the economy and the public livelihood; co-existence and solidarity; and concession and compromise. During a dinner meeting with the ruling Uri Party leadership late last year, he also asserted that the four reform bills, including the one on the national security law, "have to be handled step by step." In so doing, he made it clear that practicality would be his keynote of national governance in this New Year. If so, he should not step back in any case.
Some within the ruling party and extra-governmental organizations are reportedly displaying their opposition to his practical line explicitly in the wake of the failed appointment case. Some are even said to assert, "We knew he, being from a corrupt established circle, would fail," a remark all of us should particularly note. This nation, after all, has already seen how much trouble their pursuit of the same code that opposes social group members against one another, doing good to no one, caused over the past two years.

Agatha Webb and her cook are found dead in the early hours of the morning after a successful party, and it seems just about anyone could be the killer. Some suspect her aging husband; others think it a robbery gone too far. A few nosy villagers draw a connection between this murder and the deaths of her six children so many years prior: Was she truly a victim, a grieving mother? Or did she play some role in these deaths? The list of suspects grows when a certain wealthy townsmen is blackmailed by someone who believes he murdered Agatha Webb and her cook.
Lost Man's Lane
Narrated by: Terah Tucker
This second installment of the Amelia Butterworth series by Anna Katherine Green is full of mystery and fun.

Author Anna Katharine Green was often referred to as "the mother of the detective novel" and was an early influence on Agatha Christie.
One of My Sons

Green keeps her audience on the edge of its seat with this heart wrenching tale of family woes, love, and a bit of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson mystery. The question of "Which?" carries on to the end of the story, through exciting and surprising twists and turns no one ever sees coming.

A young woman attending the party had just accepted a marriage proposal from a handsome young man. Unfortunately, the young man is the prime suspect in the murder due to circumstantial evidence. From there, the story takes many twists and turns before the identity of the killer is finally revealed.

Who was she and why was she in the empty house all alone?

Mr. Gryce 1
Narrated by: Kirsten Ferreri
"Horatio Leavenworth, Esq., a millionaire, is murdered in his library while he is engaged in reviewing a book he plans to publish. He was shot cleanly in the back of the head (with his own pistol), meaning that he did not turn his head when his assassin entered the room. This fact led detective Ebenezer Gryce to conclude that he recognized the footsteps of his assailant and felt he had nothing to fear from this person." Thus begins this first novel in the "Mr. Gryce" series.
Credited by many as the mother of the detective novel, Anna Katharine Green published her first mystery novel - The Leavenworth Case - in 1878, almost a decade before Sherlock Holmes made his appearance. Green's intrepid Ebenezer Gryce, a seasoned New York detective, takes up the case of a brutally murdered millionaire philanthropist. One of the murdered man's two nieces is set to inherit an immense fortune, and she and her cousin are high on the suspect list.
The House in the Mist
Narrated by: Carolin Kaiser
In "The House in the Mist", weary traveler Hugh Austin arrives, seeking food and lodging for the night. "Enter, sir; you are the first to arrive, but the others cannot be far behind", he is told. "What others?" he wonders, gazing at a stern portrait hanging on the wall. He finds he has chanced upon the gathering of friends and relatives of the man in the portrait. An inheritance is to be divided, all concerned must be present by the appointed hour.

Amartya Ghosh says:
Your report on the Let's records the maximum torque as at 5500 rpm. However, as per the company-brochure it is at 6500 rpm. Which is the correct figure? Also, just what might the reason be for designing a 100cc engine with such a sky-high power-band?

School plan 'unworkable'
"It is believed that the new policy will do little, if anything, to raise student achievement." – John Prescott
A $360 million project to fund a new management structure within school communities has been met with disapproval from the majority of principals around North Otago.
John Prescott, president of the North Otago Principals' Association, said The Investing in Educational Success policy announced by Prime Minister John Key earlier this year "does not find favour" with primary principals and teachers locally and nationally.
The policy features a sharing of information between communities of schools led by an executive principal and expert teachers in order to raise student achievement. These teachers would be out of their own school for two days per week.
The position of lead teacher would also be created and this person would stay in their own school. A change principal would be available to help other schools that were having problems, such as financial troubles or issues around student achievement.
Mr Prescott said the idea was fraught with difficulties and was unworkable in its current format.
At a recent meeting in Wellington, 69 of the 73 regional principal representatives gave an overwhelming vote of no confidence in the policy.
"It is believed that the new policy will do little, if anything, to raise student achievement."
Mr Prescott said Minister Hekia Parata informed principals that it was going to happen with or without them.
"This is hardly consultation," he said.
"Even now, the consultation within the working party is shrouded in secrecy, leading to an atmosphere of suspicion and mistrust."
Executive principals and expert teachers being out of their school for two days per week would not be a popular solution.
"Boards, parents, teachers and students are unlikely to be happy if the availability of their school's leadership is to be watered down in their own school," Mr Prescott said.
"To be workable, the policy relies on the availability of relievers, which in the North Otago region is minimal at best and will cause organisational issues in school.
"It is very rare that a professional body would say no to so much money and the fact that so many educators are saying exactly that should send alarm bells ringing.
"As principals battle on a day-to-day basis to source funds to support learning in their schools, it highlights the fact that this money would be better focused on directly supporting the children who need it.
"Providing more support through RTLB, reading recovery, special education, specialists and teacher aides will directly improve student achievement."

We had a very busy summer and enjoyed every bit of it! It was nice to take a break from work but now it's time to back at it.
Well....maybe in another week. Instead I'll share our backyard s'mores experiment with you.
I'd read or seen somewhere that on a hot day you can make s'mores without a bonfire. So, I thought it would be a fun experiment for the boys and I to try. It worked out pretty well but I think we left them just a little too long.
Started with graham crackers, yummy chocolate, marshmallows and pieces of foil.
Placed them outside in the hot summer heat and waited.

Foxygen announce new album, Hang, share video for "Follow the Leader" — watch
…And Star Power follow-up features Steven Drozd of The Flaming Lips, Matthew E. White, a 40-piece orchestra, more

Our 2017 FCA Leadership Camp at Campbellsville University is off to a great start. Over 60 kids from our Central Kentucky region of schools have joined over 450 students here at camp. Even though the rain came in right when they were supposed to have games and competition on Thursday afternoon the students took it in stride and actually had a time of afternoon Bible study with their huddles!
On Thursday evening, I (Andy) had the opportunity to teach a "Buzz Group." A "Buzz Group," is a short seminar that the students can choose to go to. We give them a bunch of seminars on various topics and they can choose the ones that interest them. I taught mine on how to deal with temptation. We looked at the example of Joseph and how when it came to temptation Joseph, "Got Buff, Got Tough, and Got Out of There!" I taught two sessions on my topic and had around 25 kids in each session. It was great to get to interact with the students and talk to them about things like spiritual disciplines, setting boundaries, and finding accountability partners. I can't wait to teach again on Saturday night!
Before I close this post I want to ask you to keep praying for all our Leadership Campers. Pray for safety here at camp, but most of all pray that lives will be surrendered to Christ! Also, check out this video of over 450 students worshiping our Amazing Savior Thursday night!

Serial killer to appeal conviction against one of his murders
Ruaidhrí Giblin
Serial killer Mark Nash is set to bring an appeal against one of his double murder convictions in November.
Nash was found guilty in 2015 of the "cold case" murder of two women, whose mutilated bodies were found in sheltered accommodation in Grangegorman in Dublin twenty years ago.
The 44-year-old, who is originally from England but has last addresses at Prussia Street and Clonliffe Road in Dublin, had pleaded not guilty at the Central Criminal Court to the murder of Sylvia Sheils (59) and Mary Callanan (61) between March 6 and March 7, 1997.
However, a Central Criminal Court jury found him unanimously guilty after deliberating for just over four hours and Mr Justice Carroll Moran accordingly gave him the mandatory life sentence on April 20, 2015.
Nash was already serving life in Arbour Hill Prison imposed in October 1998 for murdering two people in Ballintober, Castlerea in Roscommon and leaving a woman seriously injured in mid-August 1997.
In the Court of Appeal today, Monday, May 22, Mr Justice George Birmingham fixed November 7 next as the date for Nash's appeal against his conviction for muder Ms Shiels and Ms Callanan. The appeal hearing is expected to take three days.
Nash was not in court of the case management matter.

O clado Sauria era tradicionalmente uma subordem de lagartos (e também crocodilianos, antes de 1800). Foi redefinido como o grupo que contém o mais recente ancestral comum dos arcossauros e lepidossauros e todos os seus descendentes;   como tal, era comum dizer designa-lo como um grupo coroa de diápsidos. No entanto, estudos genômicos recentes e estudos abrangentes do registro fóssil sugerem que as tartarugas estão intimamente relacionadas aos arcossauros, não aos pararepteis como se pensava anteriormente. Sauria pode ser visto, então, como um grupo coroado de todos os répteis modernos (incluindo aves) dentro do grupo total maior Sauropsida, que também contém vários grupos de répteis basais.

Sistemática

Sinapomorfias
As sinapomorfias ou caracteres que unem o clado Sauria também ajudam a distingui-los dos sáurios basais em Diapsida ou répteis basais no clado Sauropsida nas seguintes categorias, com base nas seguintes regiões do corpo:

 Região Cefálica
 Origem dorsal da musculatura temporal
 Perda da região caniniforme na fileira dentária superior
 Narinas externas próximas à linha média
 Pós-parietal ausente
 Osso escamosal restrito principalmente ao topo do crânio
 O flange occipital do escamosal é pouco exposto
 Processo anterior do escamosal estreito
 Osso quadrado exposto lateralmente
 Processo do estribo não-ossificado dorsalmente
 Estribo delgado
 Região do Tronco
 Costelas sacrais orientadas lateralmente
 Fusão ontogenética das costelas caudais
 Costelas do tronco, principalmente de cabeça simples
 Região Peitoral
 Cleitro ausente
 Região Pélvica
 Osso ílio modificado
 Região Límbica
 Perda de ossos tubulares
 Forame entepicondilar ausente
 Rádio tão longo quanto a ulna
 Carpo e tarso proximais pequenos
 Quinto tarso distal ausente
 Metatarso curtos e grossos em forma de gancho
 Forame da mão ausente

No entanto, alguns desses caracteres podem ser perdidos ou modificados em várias linhagens, principalmente entre aves e tartarugas.

O cladograma mostrado abaixo segue o resultado mais provável encontrado por uma análise das relações das tartarugas usando evidências fósseis e genéticas por M.S. Lee, em 2013. Este estudo descobriu que o Eunotossauro, geralmente considerado um parente da tartaruga, é apenas muito distante das tartarugas do clado Parareptilia.

O cladograma abaixo segue o resultado mais provável encontrado por outra análise das relações das tartarugas, esta usando apenas evidências fósseis, publicada por Rainer Schoch e Hans-Dieter Sues em 2015. Este estudo descobriu que o Eunotossauro é uma verdadeira tartaruga-tronco inicial, embora outro versões da análise encontraram suporte fraco para ele como um pararéptil.

Consuming carbohydrates is critical when athletes are training more than once a day. This is important for the refueling process between training sessions. Otherwise, most athletes risk fatigue, which can weaken their immune system and make injury more likely.

This is especially critical for black men who may be at risk for diabetes and heart disease when cholestorol and blood sugar levels are high.
Pastries, donuts, cookies, pies, etc.

El malgaix (malagasy en malgaix) és la llengua parlada a Madagascar i a les illes Comores, Mayotte i Reunió, mitjançant els contactes entre aquestes illes i Madagascar. Tanmateix només és oficial, juntament amb el francès, a Madagascar. Es compon d'una vintena de dialectes que corresponen a les 18 ètnies del país. Aquesta representa la llengua més occidental de la branca malai-polinèsia de les llengües austronèsies. Més concretament pertany al grup barito, les llengües del qual són parlades a Kalimantan, la part indonèsia de l'illa de Borneo, a l'actual regió de Banjarmasin i comprenen el ma'anyan, el samihim, el dusun deyah, etc. En aquesta regió la llengua dominant avui dia és el malai, que pertany a un altre grup malai-polinès.

El malgaix és part d'un conjunt lingüístic que comprèn més d'una vintena de variants locals, qualificades sovint de dialectes. De fet, les divergències de determinades variants, com per exemple el sakalava amb l'antambahoaka poden representar fins a la meitat del vocabulari comú. Pel que fa al merina els dialectes més propers són el betsileo i el sinahaka (aproximadament el 90% del vocabulari tradicional bàsic és comú). Les més diferents són les llengües de l'extrem sud de l'illa com l'antadroy i certs dialectes sakalava amb els quals el merina comparteix el 60% del vocabulari de base.

Sobre el lèxic, més del 90% del vocabulari tradicional remunta a orígens austronesis. La resta és d'origen bantu, arabo-swahili o sànscrit, en àmbits determinats. Per exemple les paraules d'origen bantu es troben sobretot en el camp de la ramaderia (omby, ondry, akoho) i els arabo-swahili en objectes comercials, el calendari i l'endevinació (alahady, adaoro, sikidy, etc.). Els préstecs lingüístics més antics semblen d'origen sànscrit (tsara, soa, sahaza, sandry, sisa, hetsy), remunten probablement al veïnatge amb els navegadors malais durant el primer mil·lenni.

L'escriptura moderna de la llengua malgaix en alfabet llatí va ser fixada per decret el 26 de març de 1823, després d'un acord entre el rei Radama I i els missioners britànics que acabaven d'arribar al reialme. El principi acordat va ser que les consonants s'havien d'escriure com en anglès i les vocals com a les llengües llatines.

El fet que el malgaix sigui originari d'Indonèsia, però, no ens pot fer concloure que el seu ancestre s'escrivís com el vell malai amb un alfabet de tipus indi. A partir del  la llengua malgaix ha agafat un nombre considerable de mots a les llengües europees, en particular del'anglès i el francès.

L'alfabet sorabe és el sistema d'escriptura emprat pels parlants de les parles malgaixes. Investigacions afirmen que el podrien haver introduït els musulmans javanesos. Però també compta amb molta semblança amb el pegon, la versió javanesa de l'alfabet àrab.

En l'aspecte actual de l'ortografia, formada per 21 lletres (sense la 'c', la 'q', la 'w', la 'u' i la 'x', en comparació amb el català) la 'o' es pronuncia com una 'u' (encara que a certes regions, sobretot al camp, es pot pronunciar com una veritable 'o' !). El diftong 'ao' es tendeix a pronunciaar com una simple 'o'. Les 'i' que es troben al final de paraula s'escriuen sempre amb 'y'. La 'e' és pronunciada com una 'é'. La 'g' es pronuncia com a 'maragda i la 's' no es pronuncia mai com una 'z'.

L'accent tònic sol caure en general sobre la penúltima síl·laba de la paraula, llevant que la paraula acabi en '-ka', '-tra', o '-na'.en aquest cas l'accent recau en l'antepenúltima. Les vocals no tòniques que es troben a la fi d'un mot són a penes pronunciades.

Report recommends approving bigger SeaWorld orca tanks
A staff report for the California Coastal Commission recommends the agency allow SeaWorld to double the size of its orca facility at its San Diego park with certain conditions.
Published: 7:12 AM PDT September 25, 2015
SAN DIEGO (AP) — A state government report released Friday recommends allowing SeaWorld to expand its killer whale facility at its San Diego park, outraging environmentalists who say the tanks could be used to breed more orcas to be kept in captivity.
The staff of the California Coastal Commission made the recommendations ahead of the regulatory board's Oct. 8 meeting where it is scheduled to vote on SeaWorld's permit request for the $100 million expansion.
The staff recommends attaching nine conditions to the permit that include requiring SeaWorld to not house newly captured orcas at its San Diego location. The report states that while no orcas have been taken from U.S. waters since the 1980s, the new facility could "potentially create the incentive to commit such capture in the future, which would be an adverse impact to California's coastal resources and to a species of special biological significance."
Tens of thousands have written the commission about the issue. Many expressed opposition to the plans, calling the expansion a marketing ploy to boost its plummeting marine-theme park attendance and not address their belief that orcas should not be in captivity at all. Attendance has dropped since the release of the popular 2013 documentary "Blackfish," which suggested SeaWorld's treatment of captive orcas provokes violent behavior.
Some environmentalists fear the bigger facility will be used by SeaWorld to breed more orcas.
"This is not limiting them in any way. In fact, this would do the opposite," said Sara Wan, a former commissioner who now works as a consultant for the Animal Defense Legal Fund. "They could breed all the orcas they want with this facility and ship them all over the world."
As part of its expansion, SeaWorld proposes demolishing portions of its 1995 "Shamu" killer whale facility, which included a 1.7 million gallon pool. In its place would be a 5.2 million gallon pool and a smaller 450,000 gallon pool. There would be no changes to seating at the existing stadium.
SeaWorld says in its proposal that the orca population housed at the new facility would not significantly increase — which would meet one of the nine conditions recommended by the staff.
Under the other conditions, SeaWorld could not house any orcas captured in the wild after February 2014 at its San Diego location, with the exception of rescued killer whales approved by one or more government agencies for rehabilitation or deemed as unfit for release into the wild. And it could not use any genetic material from wild whales caught after February 2014. The conditions would only apply to its San Diego park, since the coastal commission only has jurisdiction over that location.
SeaWorld says it would agree to the conditions and has not collected a killer whale in more than 35 years. About 80 percent of the killer whales in its care were born at SeaWorld parks or other zoos. It houses 11 orcas at its San Diego park.
The project, called "Blue World," would open in 2018 if approved. It would reflect "more natural, dynamic and adaptable environments," the company said. SeaWorld also has promised to fund additional research on the animals along with programs to protect ocean health and whales in the wild.
"The proposed Blue World project will provide not only an expanded habitat for whales, but also new opportunities for researchers to conduct studies that will benefit killer whales and other cetaceans in the wild," said Paul Ponganis, a researcher at Scripps Institution of Oceanography.
The Orlando, Florida-based company said the renovations had been in the works for some time and were not in response to the documentary "Blackfish." SeaWorld says the animals are well treated and their shows help garner support for conservation.
The company's stock has fallen 50 percent over the past two years, and attendance at the original SeaWorld, in San Diego, has lagged behind its other theme parks. Legislators in California also proposed banning performances featuring orcas, which kept criticism of SeaWorld in the news. The company has blamed competition from other theme parks for its overall drop in attendance of about 2 percent.


As per para 628 of IRMM, a Railway doctor attending a passenger afflicted with sudden illness or injury (other than as a result of a railway accident in which case it is the duty of the Railway administration to provide free medical attendance and treatment facilites) is allowed to recover a consultation fee at the rate of Rs. 20/- irrespective of the grade of the attend Medical officer.
It has been decided by the Board ( MS, FC and CRB) that the Consultation fee for above purpose be revised from Rs. 20/- to Rs. 100/-. The rest of the para 628 of IRMM will remain unchanged.

DHS To Implement Haitian Family Reunification Parole Program
WASHINGTON—Starting in early 2015, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will begin implementation of a Haitian Family Reunification Parole (HFRP) Program to expedite family reunification for certain eligible Haitian family members of U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents of the U.S. and to promote safe, legal and orderly migration from Haiti to the United States.
Under this program U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will offer certain eligible Haitian beneficiaries of already approved family-based immigrant visa petitions, who are currently in Haiti, an opportunity to come to the United States up to approximately two years before their immigrant visa priority dates become current.
"The rebuilding and development of a safe and economically strong Haiti is a priority for the United States. The Haitian Family Reunification Parole program promotes a fundamental underlying goal of our immigration system – family reunification. It also supports broader U.S. goals for Haiti's reconstruction and development by providing the opportunity for certain eligible Haitians to safely and legally immigrate sooner to the United States," said Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas. "The United States strongly discourages individuals in Haiti from undertaking life-threatening and illegal maritime journeys to the United States. Such individuals will not qualify for the HFRP program and if located at sea may be returned to Haiti."
Legal authority for the HFRP program is provided under the Immigration and Nationality Act which authorizes the Secretary of Homeland Security to parole into the United States certain individuals, on a case-by-case basis, for urgent humanitarian reasons or significant public benefit. This is the same legal authority used to establish the Cuban Family Reunification Parole program in 2007.
USCIS is not currently accepting HFRP program applications, and potential beneficiaries should not take any action at this time. USCIS will provide full program details before the end of this calendar year and stakeholder engagements will take place shortly thereafter. In early 2015, the Department of State National Visa Center (NVC) will begin contacting certain U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents with approved petitions for Haitian family members, offer them the opportunity to apply to the program, and provide instructions on how to apply. Only individuals who receive a written notice of program eligibility from NVC will be eligible to apply.
Under the Haitian Family Reunification Parole program, Haitians authorized parole will be allowed to enter the United States and apply for work permits but will not receive permanent resident status any earlier. Visit www.uscis.gov/avoidscams for tips on filing forms, reporting scams, and finding accredited legal services. Remember, the Wrong Help Can Hurt! An informational brochure (PDF) and flyer (PDF, 463.45 KB) are also available on www.uscis.gov.

A Gardening Life: Dr. Richard W. Lighty
June 15, 2012 April 15, 2005
[separator]
Dr. Richard W. Lighty
Always fascinated by variation in nature, Dr. Richard W. Lighty says "I knew by the age of 10 that I wanted to grow up to be another Luther Burbank." He still has the book his scientist-father gave him entitled "Luther Burbank: Plant Magician." Indeed, plant genetics, or to be more precise, cytogenetics, became his academic interest, first as an undergraduate in horticulture at Pennsylvania State and then in his doctoral program at Cornell. But Dick, as he is known, is a unique combination of scientist and plant lover with broad gauge interests. His lively blue eyes sparkle as he recounts in his warm, rich-timbered voice that his professional life took place in "three fifteen year segments — the first spent learning, the next teaching and the third in developing and running a public garden," each quite distinct and distinguished careers.
Like Burbank, who developed what Dick believes to be still the best baking potato, Dick did work with potatoes and agricultural crops but his deeper interest has always been in ornamental horticulture. For his Ph.D. dissertation, he analyzed the chromosomes of Madonna Lilies, proving that all grown in this country originated from a single clone. He still loves lilies and has quite a few in his own marvelous garden just outside Kennett Square Pennsylvania, where he has lived with his childhood sweetheart, Sally, since 1961. They first met when Dick was four years old . He says "long courtships – I definitely recommend them." After leaving Cornell, Dick assumed that he would find a job with a seed company but instead, a mentor, Walter Hodge, urged him to consider a position at Longwood Gardens.
Right out of Cornell, he became the geneticist in charge of the experimental greenhouse at Longwood, conducting plant research and breeding. But he also began to pay attention to the cultivation methods used by the old gardeners who had worked at Longwood for many years while it was the private domain of Pierre S. DuPont who were reluctant to abandon their traditional techniques. With Longwood a public institution. Dick had to convince these skeptics that modern, scientific methods could produce the plants needed for the seasonal displays in less time by using new growing mediums, fertilizers and disease prevention techniques.
As part of a cooperative program of Longwood and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Dick went to Korea in 1966 on a plant finding expedition. The flora of Korea, like that of China and Japan, grew in conditions closely related to the eastern United States but had been long neglected by western botanists. Communist China was then inaccessible but the Korean War was over so Korea became Dick's base of operations for four months during the growing season where he studied and collected desirable plant material. Heat prostration, sore muscles, food poisoning and severe dysentery – Dick lost over 20 pounds — primitive living and challenging road conditions did not deter the mission He mailed back cuttings, live plants and seeds of 450 different plants, woody plants, ferns and other herbaceous treasured. Dick smiles, saying "I didn't lose a thing."
Dick has been an outspoken critic of non-profits that sponsor plant finding expeditions but fail to adequately absorb and evaluate the results and get worthy new plants out into public use. Instead, they are "planning the next trip before they've had time to digest the previous trip — that's the crux of the problem." Thanks to Dick's personal efforts and connections with private gardeners, nurserymen and plant societies, he has selected plants that performed well in his own garden to disseminate across the country. One of my own favorites is the tough and beautiful little woodland plant he brought back from Korea, aruncus aesthusifolius, while Dick's friend and fellow plantsman, Bill Frederick, treasures Dick's Iris Ensata var. Spontanea that Bill describes as "electric mauve." Another one of Dick's great Korean finds is popular grass, Calamogrostis arundinacea var. brachytricha, but there are many others not yet well enough known.
Shortly after his return from Korea, Dick began the teaching segment of his career when he became the Director of a new Longwood graduate program at the University of Delaware to train graduate students in ornamental horticulture. In sending him to his interview, the Director of Longwood told him, "We've interviewed a number of people and the ones the University likes, we don't like. The ones we like, the University doesn't like." The University wanted academic credentials while Longwood wanted someone with experience in public gardens. Dick, of course, satisfied both. Over time, Dick's broader interests introduced business and economics courses so that what had been a Graduate Program In Ornamental Horticulture became the Program of Public Garden Administration. Dick is proud that some of his progeny have become leading figures in their own right, such as Judy Zuk, President of the Brooklyn Botanical Garden, Jane Pepper, President of the Pennsylvania Horticulture Society, Paul Meyer, Michael Bailey and many others.
Increasingly well known, Dick joined the board of the American Association of Botanical Gardens and Arboreta and was sought after by many other organizations for advice, lectures and expertise. Then in 1982, Dick received a call from Mr. And Mrs. Copeland asking for his consultation in connection with their own property where they had been thinking of establishing an arboretum or some kind of public garden. Wisely counseling them to select a particular focus and having learned that Mrs. Copeland loved wild flowers, Dick suggested they develop a garden featuring the native Piedmont flora. They loved the idea and who better to execute it than Dick. After fifteen years as Director, Dick retired from the Mount Cuba Garden for the Study of Piedmont Flora, after what he says was a wonderful "partnership" with Mrs. Copeland, "each learning important lessons from the other." Their legacy is a unique public garden, seamlessly blending visual beauty and educational lessons in the use of native plants.
A Bit of Background
The gardens have evolved over 40 years, beginning in 1971 when the Robinsons first acquired their 1750's clapboard farmhouse, in the hills of Litchfield County in northwestern Connecticut.
