To provide staging cranes with undisturbed feeding areas, we help with extra feeding sites. At undisturbed fields, owned by Crane Conservation Germany, we provide extra food to cranes. With your donation we can buy maize or cereal grains to feed cranes.
More and more guests visit the region of "Darß-Zingst bodden chain and island Rügen" to experience the staging cranes. Crane rangers inform and guide the crane visitors and help to minimize disturbances by tourists. Become active as a volunteer crane ranger or please donate for the ranger service.
Flyer, information boards and a visit at our Crane Information Centre at no charge allow us to inform guests about the behaviour of the shy cranes and help to minimize disturbances by visitors. With a donation you can support our public relations work.
You have your own fantastic idea of an interesting crane project and would like to support that project idea financially? Please contact us and we are looking for how to realise your project idea together. In 2016, we got a donation in kind by the company Schwegler to install different nestboxes for birds and bats at the KRANORAMA. In 2015, we got a private donation to reconstruct the ranger room in our KRANORAMA.

These experts say there are only two kinds of golfers. Which one are you?
By: Luke Kerr-Dineen September 23, 2019
GOLF Top 100 Teachers and Titleist Performance Institute experts Dave Phillips and Jon Tattersall spend their days studying not only the golf swing but also how the body works. Earlier this year, we sat down with the pair for a series of interviews. They revealed a bunch of interesting snippets. Among them: There are only two different kinds of players — "body mass" golfers and "rotary" golfers. Here's how to find out which one you are.
Golfer Type #1: Body Mass
Body mass golfers, like Ernie Els, Phil Mickelson, and Lee Westwood, are usually bigger in stature, carry more weight and are stronger in terms of raw strength. Body mass golfers' swings may look slower than their counterparts, but they still generate lots of speed because they have more mass than others. For that reason, they don't need to worry as much about moving their mass as quickly as others, but instead learn to move the mass they do have effectively.
"This is why you get players that say, 'Oh, I'm going to get on a gym program, I'm going to lose some weight,' And all of a sudden they lose all their speed," Phillips says. "They lose all their mass, and they're not as fast."
Golfer Type #2: Rotary
Rotary golfers typically have lower body mass, Phillips and Tattersall say, and generate swing speed by learning to fire their muscles really quickly, often using the ground for maximum leverage. Justin Thomas and Rory McIlroy — two of the longest pound-for-pound golfers in history — are two good examples of rotatory players. Their swings features lots of explosive movement, and a lot of vertical force as they push off the ground and fire their muscles as quickly as possible.
"They have to push and use the ground," Tattersall says. "They have to use everything they've got."
Justin Thomas is a launcher.
Angus Murray
The good news? No matter which kind of golfer you are, we've got lots of great instruction tips for you.

R. Fink | Of Rummy and reality
The Packet Rat'commentary
By R. Fink
THE RAT IS always happy to see a former fed do well. So when he heard that former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was going to be in Washington for the Institute for Defense and Government Advancement's Network Centric Warfare 2008 conference at the Ronald Reagan Building, he figured he'd drop by ' because network-centric warfare pretty much describes his daily life.
'We're engaging the enemy daily in cyberwarfare,' the whiskered one told his boss by way of asking permission to attend the conference.
'We're implementing netcentric solutions. We're deploying service-oriented architecture in support of our strategy. And besides, with all this cross-agency collaboration, architectural integration and '' 'Enough!' his boss cried, overwhelmed with the barrage of buzzwords.
'Go! Go!' After sitting through the Tuesday morning sessions on the day Rummy was scheduled to speak, the wirebiter caught sight of a card dropped just outside the speakers' room. It was an invitation to a private luncheon and Q&A session, and the Rat snatched it, figuring lunch would be well within his spending allowance.
Sneaking into the back of the room, the Rat found some space between a pair of defense contractors as Rumsfeld, the architect of the network- enabled fighting force, prepared to answer questions. But the podium's microphone stand had other ideas ' it fell over when he tried to speak.
'This thing looks like it's falling asleep,' Rumsfeld said.
Just then, a blue-jacketed two-star whizzed past the Rat and shortly after returned to the podium carrying strips of duct tape. The major general used the tape to secure the stand to the side of the podium at an angle that allowed Rumsfeld to continue with his dialogue.
'Do you always have duct tape with you?' Rumsfeld asked. 'Have you been listening to Tom Ridge or something?' The Rat looked for a snare drum to give the former secretary a rim shot. 'Poor Tom,' the Rat muttered, recalling the former Homeland Security Department secretary.
'True prophets are never recognized in their own time.' He reflected on his own agency's daily efforts at cyberdefense, SOA and cross-agency collaboration, and the frequent differences between the best-laid plans and reality, and he concluded, 'Duct tape is the answer to everything.'

I'm from an area called the Ottawa Valley..very rural and has deep Scottish and Irish influence..combine that with Canadian sensibilities (or in sensibilities) and you get quite a bit of slang that nobody outside our region understands..Kind of like the Yorkshire of Canada..
I think you did a great job. Being a newbie here is some cooking starter hints. Always start with a clean kitchen and hands, read your recipe completely through first and then get your ingredients out, and follow the recipe as it is written, Clean as you go. Also if you not sure on something ask us, someone will always know the answer, There are no stupid questions. One final hint, don't be afraid to fail at a recipe, that's how you learn and just have fun.
How did the cake taste?
I've made a new recipe make a few notes about how successful the cake was. Did it taste great? was it hard to make? Is it worth trying again or is it time to move on to another recipe.. etc.
I am the cake baker at my house... I love cake - not the icing but the actual cake. Good cake is delicious and getting scarce these days.
Your cake looks great - it's fun and there will never be another exactly like it. Best of all you took the time to bake it just for her. Nice - thoughtful.
Scott, that is a fabulous job. I am sure she loved it. You should be proud of it.
Well it actually tasted a lot better than it looked!
I didn't really follow a recipe, my mum just told me how to make it over the phone. That was actually my second attempt because the first one was a bit hard and dry so I added a little milk to the mixture on the second go which made it turn out lovely and moist.

KPMG rejects bid by Chatha to purchase 200 Threshers stores
Raj Chatha has slammed Threshers' administrators after his bid to buy 200 stores was rejected.
The CEO of European Food Brokers claimed price and "horse trading" had stopped him striking a deal with KPMG, whose hopes of selling large chunks of First Quench Retailing's estate are fading fast.
Chatha said he had no plans to up the offer because even if it was accepted, there was no longer enough time to restock the stores in time for the crucial Christmas period.
Chatha, who recently bought 109 stores from Wine Cellar after it fell into administration, had been expected to take on the biggest number of stores and had also tried to buy the Wine Rack, Local and Threshers fascias.
"We have walked away," he said. "We couldn't reach an agreement with the administrators, which has surprised me no end. The administrators have not done a very good job as far as I'm concerned. There's a hell of a lot of people they have put out of work when they didn't need to."
However, Richard Fleming, KPMG head of UK restructuring, said Chatha's bid was too low. "We will sell those stores for more money elsewhere," he said. "We have done a good job for the creditors by not taking a poor offer."
Northern off-licence chain Rhythm & Booze has become the biggest buyer to date, snapping up 34 sites and almost doubling its store estate to 74. MD Martin Swaine has taken on all 180 store staff.
KPMG is still hoping to sell 100 stores to bulk bidders, while more than 1,000 stores are now being sold individually by Christie & Co.
EFB is behind deal for Oddbins brand name
European Food Brokers has purchased the rights to the Oddbins brand name and website.
EFB snaps up 37 stores from Oddbins administrator
European Food Brokers has bought 37 of the Oddbins stores still open from the off licence chain s administrator. Deloitte said it was engaged in discussions and confident of an imminent deal on the remaining 48 open stores.
EFB resolves to rethink fascias once Christmas rush is finished
European Food Brokers is to conduct a review of its fascias following its acquisition of 109 stores from Wine Cellar. Chief executive Raj Chatha said he had yet to decide on a plan for the new stores and would concentrate on maximising...

My code is

    private void initServlets() {
        ServletContextHandler servletContextHandler = new ServletContextHandler(ServletContextHandler.SESSIONS);

        servletContextHandler.setContextPath("/");

        ResourceConfig resourceCfg = new ResourceConfig();
        resourceCfg.packages(BookResource.class.getPackage().getName(), "/*");

        ServletContainer servletContainer = new ServletContainer(resourceCfg);

        ServletHolder servletHolder = new ServletHolder(servletContainer);
        servletContextHandler.addServlet(servletHolder, "/api/*");
//        servletContextHandler.addFilter(null, KEY, null)

        FilterHolder corsFilter = new FilterHolder();
        corsFilter.setInitParameter("allowedOrigins", "https://example.com");
        corsFilter.setInitParameter("allowedMethods", "POST,GET,OPTIONS,PUT,DELETE,HEAD");
        corsFilter.setInitParameter("allowedHeaders", "X-PINGOTHER, Origin, X-Requested-With, Content-Type, Accept");
        corsFilter.setInitParameter("preflightMaxAge", "728000");
        corsFilter.setInitParameter("allowCredentials", "true");
        corsFilter.setInitParameter("chainPreflight", "false");

        CrossOriginFilter cors = new CrossOriginFilter();

        corsFilter.setFilter(cors);

        FilterMapping corsFilterMap = new FilterMapping();
        corsFilterMap.setFilterName("cross-origin");
        corsFilterMap.setPathSpec("/*");
        corsFilterMap.setDispatcherTypes(EnumSet.of(DispatcherType.INCLUDE, DispatcherType.REQUEST));

        servletContextHandler.getServletHandler().addFilter(corsFilter, corsFilterMap);

        this.handlerList.addHandler(servletContextHandler);

        this.setHandler(this.handlerList);
    }

I am not very much experienced with jetty and servlet stuff so I am confused, help would be really appreciated!

A: There's a few issues.

*

*Mapping of both Servlets and Filters is done by the ServletContextHandler, not the ServletHandler.

*If you use a FilterHolder + Mapping with name, then you have to name your FilterHolder.
Mapping with name is overly complicated for embedded-jetty use, it really only exists for WEB-INF/web.xml based configuration.  Just use the FilterHolder directly.

*You are missing the required ServletContextHandler BaseResource declaration

*You are missing the required DefaultServlet on your ServletContext

*You are missing the DefaultHandler on your top level handler tree (usually set as last entry)

A correct setup would be like this ...
ServletContextHandler servletContextHandler = new ServletContextHandler(ServletContextHandler.SESSIONS);
servletContextHandler.setContextPath("/");
// Base Resource is required for your setup
servletContextHandler.setBaseResource(Resource.newResource(urlToStaticContent));

ResourceConfig resourceCfg = new ResourceConfig();
resourceCfg.packages(BookResource.class.getPackage().getName(), "/*");

ServletContainer servletContainer = new ServletContainer(resourceCfg);

ServletHolder servletHolder = new ServletHolder(servletContainer);
servletContextHandler.addServlet(servletHolder, "/api/*");

FilterHolder corsHolder = servletContextHandler.addFilter(CrossOriginFilter.class,
    "/*",
    EnumSet.of(DispatcherType.INCLUDE, DispatcherType.REQUEST));

corsHolder.setInitParameter("allowedOrigins", "https://example.com");
corsHolder.setInitParameter("allowedMethods", "POST,GET,OPTIONS,PUT,DELETE,HEAD");
corsHolder.setInitParameter("allowedHeaders", "X-PINGOTHER, Origin, X-Requested-With, Content-Type, Accept");
corsHolder.setInitParameter("preflightMaxAge", "728000");
corsHolder.setInitParameter("allowCredentials", "true");
corsHolder.setInitParameter("chainPreflight", "false");

// Default Servlet is Required
ServletHolder defaultHolder = new ServletHolder("default", DefaultServlet.class);
servletContextHandler.addServlet(defaultHolder, "/"); // default url-pattern

HandlerList handlerList = new HandlerList();
handlerList.addHandler(servletContextHandler);
// Default Handler is for requests that don't match a context above
// Such as requests that don't have a path that start with "/"
// It is safe to leave active, even in production, and will help with troubleshooting issues
handlerList.addHandler(new DefaultHandler());

server.setHandler(handlerList);

The Filter mapping of your CrossOriginFilter has specified the DispatcherType set of INCLUDE and REQUEST, that's a really odd setup.
Doing CORS from an INCLUDE (or FORWARD) dispatch is super awkward, skip it.
But you didn't specify ASYNC, which is actually super common.
I would change the mapping this way ...
FilterHolder corsHolder = servletContextHandler.addFilter(CrossOriginFilter.class,
    "/*",
    EnumSet.of(DispatcherType.REQUEST, DispatcherType.ASYNC));

Things to keep in mind for using CrossOriginFilter.

*

*It will only produce HTTP Response headers based on your configuration.

*It does not "prevent" or "fail" any request that doesn't match your configuration.

*Requests without a Origin request header will not trigger the CrossOriginFilter.

Alessio Stalla

Alessio Stalla - November, 2010

I'm currently integrating ABCL in a small, unreleased open source
project. It's a sort of graphical object browser for Java (but its GUI
sucks badly for now...). It can be run locally or as a client-server
application. I'm adding scripting support so you can access some
functionality from Lisp (or in principle any other Java Scripting API
compatible script engine, though I'm focusing on ABCL).

With my Java background and my love for Lisp, I've found ABCL to be the ideal choice for my open source projects, in particular:

DynaSpring (http://code.google.com/p/dynaspring/), a Lisp-based DSL for the Spring framework: it replaces the ugly-ugly XML with our beloved parentheses, bringing new features to Spring (conditional evaluation, modularity constructs, etc.) and making it much more user-extensible;

Snow (http://common-lisp.net/project/snow/), a declarative GUI language in the vein of XUL, but obviously Lisp-based, targeting Swing. While still lacking many things, it combines a Lisp DSL with existing Java libraries to concisely describe the structure and layout of the GUI, and to make it easy to connect the UI with the application, thanks to its integration with Cells;

and all the other experimental, unreleased stuff I do as a hobby (mainly related to web development and enterprise application development).

For me ABCL's selling point is of course its interoperability with Java and the consequent access to Java libraries, but I also appreciate its simplicity, portability (even FASLs are cross-platform, thanks to the JVM), and last but not least, the small but vibrant and helpful community.


Carolyn Braun said she enjoys powerlifting because she can clear her head, unlike her work as a rabbi, which requires juggling many tasks.
WESTBROOK — Carolyn Braun enjoys powering through obstacles.
At 4 feet 9 inches, she isn't what comes to mind when one imagines a powerlifter. The petite Portland woman is part of a new movement taking over the male-dominated sport.
"It really breaks the glass ceiling – the stained-glass ceiling," she said while laughing at her own joke.
What sounds like a punchline is actually her reality: a powerlifting rabbi named Braun.
Braun, who is the spiritual leader at Temple Beth El in Portland, is very aware of the contradiction in her identity.
Her two paths have a similar theme, though. Braun, who turns 60 next week, makes room for herself where others like her have previously been unwelcome.
Braun was part of the first class of women admitted to the rabbinical program at the Jewish Theological Seminary in New York, where she received her master's degree in Judaic Studies. She was ordained in 1988 and became rabbi at Temple Beth El in 1994.
Five or so years after moving to Portland, Braun began strength training with Matt Israelson, who owns Dyna Maxx gym in Westbrook. After years of doing exercises to maintain basic health and wellness, Braun developed an interest in powerlifting.
"The minute I let out that I might want to do this, everyone was on top of me," she said.
The gym, at 120 Main St., has 40-50 members, Israelson said. Braun said they've become like a family, and with their encouragement, she started powerlifting four years ago.
When she started, Braun could dead-lift 135 pounds. She trains four days a week, is now lifting 248, and is close to reaching her goal of 253 pounds.
After 18 years of working together, Israelson said the biggest change he's seen in Braun since she started powerlifting is her motivation. He said she now sets goals for herself and is determined to reach them.
Braun has noticed this in herself, too, and said it's changed the way she thinks about her progress.
Competitions are another new aspect of Braun's life. Her first powerlifting meet was in 2015 and her next is Aug. 5. She typically enters the masters class for older women.
With most powerlifters in their 20s and 30s, Braun said she's not only shocked that she chose to do this in her 50s, but that she chose to do this at all.
"I never imagined at any stage in my life I'd be doing this," she said.
Braun said she didn't start powerlifting so she could compete, but now enjoys it greatly. Israelson hosts meets in Westbrook and said lately 30 percent of the competitors are women.
Additionally, half of the members at Dyna Maxx are women.
"This gym is really special in that it accepts all kinds of people," Braun said.
This applies to identities beyond gender, she said.
Braun said being a powerlifter and a rabbi go hand-in-hand for her. She said she often borrows from powerlifting when trying to balance her duties as a rabbi.
Powerlifting, while difficult, has also given Braun a space to relax.

Q: Pagelayout question related to account hi i have a page layout related to account.In that one section named account detail which is a standard section.on the detail page it is displaying with the other name.now i need to rename the account detail section ,how can i do that ? any idea?

A: If it a standard section you can't rename it. Standard page sections are read only.
Else you can create a new section with your required name and move all the field from standard section.
You can place the fields in same order like standard one.

Facebook acquires Lone Echo developer Ready at Dawn • Eurogamer.net
June 22, 2020 admin PC Games 0
Will continue to be run as "independent studio".
Ready at Dawn, the developer behind The Order: 1886 and virtual reality sci-fi hit Lone Echo, has been acquired by Facebook.
Ready at Dawn was founded in 2003 by former members of Naughty Dog, and enjoyed a long relationship with Sony in the years after; it worked on the likes of God of War: Chains of Olympus and God War: Ghost of Sparta for the PlayStation Portable before later moving on to develop the divisive PS4-exclusive The Order: 1886 in 2015.
In 2017, however, Ready at Dawn entered into a partnership with Facebook's Oculus Studios, releasing the acclaimed VR sci-fi adventure Lone Echo, which successfully combined a solo story campaign and a team-based multiplayer mode known as Echo Arena. Facebook will be publishing Lone Echo 2 later this year, and today's acquisition news suggests the relationship is one both parties expect to continue bearing fruit well into the future.

TAVR Shows Similar Safety Outcomes as Open-Heart Surgery
Five-year study in the New England Journal of Medicine compares transcatheter aortic valve replacement to Surgery and shows no statistically significant difference in mortality or stroke
Raj Makkar, M.D., led a multicenter national study comparing outcomes for minimally invasive TAVR heart valve replacement to open-heart surgery. The study showed the two methods have similar outcomes. Photo by Cedars-Sinai.
January 31, 2020 — A new study from the Smidt Heart Institute at Cedars-Sinai and other centers nationwide shows that patients who underwent a minimally invasive transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), had similar key five-year clinical outcomes of death and stroke as patients who had traditional open-heart surgery to replace the valve.
The study, the PARTNER 2A study, compares long-term outcomes of the two different approaches to treating aortic stenosis, a common heart problem affecting some 12% of people over 65. The research, involving more than 2,000 patients, was published today by The New England Journal of Medicine and will appear in the Feb. 27 print edition.[1]
"The results of this study are encouraging because TAVR was comparable in terms of outcomes," said study lead author Raj Makkar, M.D., vice president of Cardiovascular Innovation and Intervention at Cedars-Sinai. "These findings allow patients to have more peace of mind and undergo a less invasive procedure. Unlike surgery, TAVR is now often done without or with minimal anesthesia and with next-day discharge from the hospital."
During the TAVR procedure, an interventional cardiologist inserts a replacement valve into a catheter and guides it through an artery to the patient's heart, where a balloon is expanded to press the valve into place.
According to the American Heart Association, nearly 1.5 million people in the U.S. have aortic valve stenosis, a narrowing or hardening of the aortic valve caused by calcium buildup on the heart valve flaps. Patients with a severe form of the disease experience symptoms including shortness of breath, chest pain, fatigue and fainting. Many cannot even walk enough to perform basic daily activities.
Aortic stenosis often results in death within three years of diagnosis. Replacing the aortic valve – either through the TAVR procedure or surgery – restores patients' life expectancy to normal. During 2019, more than 100,000 patients underwent TAVR procedures in the U.S., compared to about 50,000 patients who had aortic valve replacement with open-heart surgery.
Study investigators at 57 medical centers followed approximately 1,000 aortic stenosis patients who underwent the minimally invasive procedure and 1,000 patients who underwent open-heart surgery. The patients were followed for five years, beginning in 2011. Investigators found:
There was no statistical difference between the two groups in mortality rates or disabling stroke rates;
• At five years follow-up, both TAVR patients and open-heart surgery patients experienced similar improvements in disease-specific quality-of-life measures;
• The rate of aortic valve reintervention over 5 years was 3.2% for TAVR patients compared to 0.8% with surgery. Nonetheless, reintervention with TAVR was associated with lower mortality than surgery.
Patients who had TAVR performed using a transfemoral approach (from the groin to the heart) and open-heart surgery patients both had better outcomes than patients who underwent TAVR performed through an incision in the chest area.
"This landmark study clarifies the long-term pros and cons of surgical versus percutaneous interventions for the aortic valve," said Eduardo Marbán, M.D., Ph.D., executive director of the Smidt Heart Institute. "As one of the top enrolling sites, the Smidt Heart Institute is particularly proud of Dr. Makkar's leadership of this exceptionally talented team of clinical investigators."
Makkar believes the results would be more striking with the TAVR valve now in current use by physicians because of the improvements in technology and implantation techniques. Newer valves being manufactured today come with a skirt designed to reduce leak around the valve and in more sizes, which is important for correct sizing of the valve implant.
The study was funded by Edwards Lifesciences. Makkar has received research grants and travel support for proctoring from Edwards Lifesciences.

Planned Parenthood Gave Campaign Contribution to Senators Who Voted Against Defunding
Amanda Casanova | ChristianHeadlines.com Contributor | Tuesday, August 25, 2015
#Planned Parenthood
#government
Thousands of pro-life supporters protested this weekend at Planned Parenthood sites across the country.
According to LifeNews.com, supporters joined together after a series of videos were released that showed top Planned Parenthood officials making plans to sell aborted baby body parts.
The videos have sparked outrage and rallied pro-life advocates. In total, about 50,000 to 75,000 people protested over the weekend, according to LifeNews.com.
Other videos detail how some members of Congress voted to defeat a bill that would have defunded Planned Parenthood. According to LifeNews.com, Planned Parenthood financed the campaigns of the senators who voted against defunding the clinics.
"Detailed research proves that the abortion lobby pads the pockets of lawmakers. In turn, these lawmakers are willing to stand on the Senate floor, blatantly spewing out the very same lies Planned Parenthood tells the public – all to prevent an abusive organization from being defunded," LiveAction notes. "According to publicly available federal campaign donation records, every single Senator who voted not to defund Planned Parenthood, except one, has been awarded money from the abortion giant."
Sen. Angus King, who voted against the measure, was the only congressman who did not accept Planned Parenthood financing.

Just Flight announced the release of Constellation Professional. Constellation Professional is an elegant prop liner which comes with eleven aircraft in three model types, all with the latest FSX features.
Constellation Professional, which features stunning curving lines and triple tails, is a product of 1930s America. At the time, there was a hasty dash to dominance in wartime aviation technology. The Constellation symbolizes the supremacy and the romance of the large piston-engined airliners of this period.
Some historical background: the Lockheed Constellation was built between 1943 and 1958 in Burbank, California. It was distinguished by its dolphin-shaped fuselage and triple-tail design. A total of 856 Constellations were manufactured, and there were four models of the aircraft.
Just Flight's Constellation Professional in FSX.
Constellation Professional is the ultimate package for flight simulation. It comes with eleven aircraft in three model types. It also has a complete Flight Engineer's station, radio station and Co-pilot's station. Models included in this package are the C-69/L-049A, the L-049A first production type and the C-69 Military Transport Prototype.
A complete virtual cockpit was modelled for Constellation Professional, and the flight model was tested by real-world Constellation pilots. A replica of a characteristic cabin is included in the package – providing a feel of what life was like aboard these enormous airliners.
Aeroplane Heaven developed Constellation Professional solely for FSX (SP2 & DX10 preview compatible). The fact that the models are all fully FSX SDK compliant means that reflections, shine, bloom, self shadowing etc are all available if you have these turned on in the simulator. The add-on makes maximum use of the all-new FSX graphics features to remarkable effect.
Constellation Professional, which is a 176MB download, is easy to install. It comes with a manual which comprises 56 pages of detailed history, the various models featured in the base pack and two expansion packs, and how to fly the aircraft effectively. The manual has a tutorial section that offers a step by step guide on powering up the aircraft from a dark cockpit, providing details on all aspects of the plane.
The Constellation is a large prop powered aircraft from a period that was in its infancy in flight deck automation. Hence, some perseverance is needed to fly the aircraft. This add-on is steeped in history – it's a simulation of an aircraft developed in the period when the Wright brothers were still alive and jet aviation was still in development.
Great attention to detail, the diverse range of models, the high quality textures as well as superb sounds make the Constellation Professional a top quality add-on.
You can purchase Constellation Professional over at SimShack.net.

"We will have a chance to help grow our Club and the NRL in Cairns and the surrounding region, and help support the QRL and the local league in their efforts to keep Rugby League as the number sport in the region.
"We'll be working closely with all of the stakeholders connected to this match to help promote Cairns as one of Australia's great holiday and recreation centres, and we're sure that many Rabbitohs Members will take the opportunity to travel north for a mid-year break and catch some sun on the Great Barrier Reef and to cheer on their team against what will be a very important match against the Titans.
"Approximately ten percent of our Members live in Queensland as well, so we're sure to see a lot of them here in Cairns to cheer on their team, as well as supporting some of their fellow Queenslanders with South Sydney players Greg Inglis, Michael Crocker, Ben Te'o, Chris McQueen, Ben Lowe, Dave Tyrrell, Justin Hunt, Luke Keary and Mitchell Buckett all proud Maroons."
Member for Cairns and Assistant Minister for Tourism, Gavin King, welcomed the announcement that Barlow Park will be the host venue for the 2013 NRL Cairns Regional Fixture.
"To have secured this fixture for the next three years is a great demonstration of the Newman Government's commitment to supporting our tourism industry here in Cairns," said Mr King.
"Queenslanders are renowned Rugby League fans, with the 2013 NRL match set to draw large crowds to Barlow Park, delivering significant economic returns for the Cairns region.
"Through the support of Events Queensland, Cairns' major event calendar continues to grow with this match joining a range of experiences on offer including the Cairns Airport Adventure Festival featuring Ironman Cairns, the Cairns Indigenous Art Fair, and the inaugural Great Barrier Reef Masters Games in 2013.
"We look forward to welcoming the South Sydney Rabbitohs to Tropical North Queensland when they take on the Gold Coast Titans in June."
QRL CEO, Rob Moore, said: "Far North Queensland is an important Rugby League nursery that continues to produce elite players via its various programs, thriving local competitions and Intrust Super Cup club the Northern Pride.
"This game will no doubt inspire players to reach their goals and will provide a wonderful opportunity for Rugby League fans to experience the thrill of an NRL premiership match in their own backyard.

I was given the opportunity to experience Wardrobe Styling in Hollywood last Monday with industry professionals featuring Lauren Bowles of True Blood! I was able to learn first hand what it's like to work with a celebrity! Lauren's shoot is being submitted to Live Magazine which is a local publication for Los Angeles, Long Beach, and Orange County areas. After shooting a few different looks with Lauren, agency models were brought in for us to style for three different editorials. Celebrity makeup artist Melanie Mills, former head makeup artist on Dancing With The Stars, had a team working together to create the designated looks while art director, Aubrey Loots, and team styled hair. Fashion photographer, Daryl Henderson, was busy pretty much the entire 10 hour day shooting one model right after the next as we all collaborated together to quickly pull together looks. Our instructor provided the wardrobe from various show rooms in LA along with a few accessories and even had a friend of hers who's a jewelry maker come in to make her custom jewelry available to us. After receiving the details of the desired look and being assigned to a model I was in charge of wardrobe and accessories to complete the look. I felt I was able to easily create the agreed upon look and the rest of my team seemed happy with the final results. While I can't show you any photos of Lauren Bowles until they are published, I can however show you a little sneak peek at the editorials.
Who's the Next Celebrity Designer?
The 2nd celebrity designer is Madonna who has finally launched her own brand for adults. Following the success of her junior line she does with her daughter, famously labeled Material Girl, Madonna is launching a line called Truth or Dare by Madonna starting with a fragrance and after that will come footwear, handbags, and intimates. Most people are wondering, why didn't she do this sooner? After all, she IS the world's top selling female recording artist of ALL TIME! Not to mention a fashion icon of which her 80's iconic style is returning.
Speaking of juniors, check out the next big thing for teens. Scented shoelaces! Because? Teen girls like to smell each other's feet? Who knew. Apparently they are not only trying to get girls to tie up their shoes but to also use them as belts or bracelets with scents like "pancake batter", "bubble gum", and "ketchup". I'm not sure why they didn't think of these for the stinky footed grown man, go figure.
I began my modeling career as a pinup model and one of the first workshops I took was about how to do 40's/50's style hair and makeup. Can you guess what hairstyle was the first thing they taught us? Ah yes, the Victory Roll. It comes as no surprise to me that the victory roll is making it's way into main stream culture with as many celebrities that sport the look, not to mention the numerous pinup style ad campaigns that have been emerging in high fashion. I know there are some great tutorials on youtube should you so desire to try pull off the look yourself. Feel free to hit me up for an one on one lesson or to host a beauty party.
Here's a few videos I found for the highly anticipated Versace for H&M scheduled to debut on Nov. 19th.

A Step Forward (Ch.12 P.2)
24Sep 2020 9 Oct 2020
Part 2: A Step Forward
←Prologue
←Previous Entry
Alo shook his head again, grimacing. "I'm not doing very well at this. Collins is the expert on Trium and related studies. When he reappears, he'll be able to illuminate much more than I have. Sorry I couldn't be more help…"
"No, you are helping," Tomas said quickly, as Alo trailed off.
"A little," Kari said under her breath. If Alo heard her, he didn't let on.
Tomas was shooting a glance at Kari when a single, loud knock popped out from the door behind them. They jumped, and after a brief moment, two more sharp knocks sounded out.
Alo nodded. "Come in, Collins. It's not locked."
The door opened, and the diminutive man entered. "Things are going smoothly in here, I hope. He's answered your questions?"
"As best I could, sir. They crossed rather neatly into your area of expertise before I knew what happened."
"Well, it's a good thing I'm here, then. What did y'all want to know?"
"Alo was just explaining Trium," Kari said, looking the large, dark-skinned man in the eye. Consciously or not, he shrank back just noticeably.
Noticeable for Tomas, at least. Collins was wasting no time pulling a fourth chair up [mc1] to the corner next to Alo and across from Kari. He was just about to sit when he heard that final word—Trium. Instead of sitting, he popped up and went to lock the door. The click of the key in the lock behind Kari and Tomas made them squirm; [Tomas didn't even realize it until after he'd noticed Kari's discomfort, but suddenly that stone room began to feel very small indeed.]
Alo smiled faintly. "I told you this is his field," he said to Kari and Tomas. To Collins, he said, "Want the big chair?"
"No thanks," he said, sitting with a flourish of his cape. "So what's already been discussed? In fact, no. Tomas, why don't you tell me what you've learned and we'll go from there."
"Oh, well…" Tomas thought for a moment. "Alo…didn't get to say all that much before you arrived. He said She made us…and controls us…or not? But He's also the Father and Almighty?" Tomas shook his head, confused. "Am…I remembering wrong?"
Collins smiled widely. "No, you're right on track. Infinity is baffling to the finite. Don't worry, you learn to live with it. Anything else?" He leaned his elbows on the desk before him and laced his fingers, as if he were very excited and working to keep it in check.
Tomas shook his head slowly.
Kari jumped a little before saying, "He said something about…uhm…permission." Her eyebrows furrowed, and she sat back crossing her arms."
Collins applauded quietly, an impressed look on his face. He turned and looked up at Alo first, who did his best to contain a smile, then swept his clapping hands past Tomas, then Kari, that same impressed look on his face; [albeit now with much more contained amusement behind it.] "Alo, it seems you've covered the most important pieces. Not only that, but you two caught them! Through no small effort of your own, I'm sure. Wonderful." He breathed a short yet heavy sigh, clearly one of relief. "I have a story to tell you, if you'll listen. It's…central to both my work and my life. Thus, know that this is a rather personal thing for me to do, telling this story."
Still confused and agitated, Kari and Tomas nodded.
They glanced at each other, which relaxed them just a bit. Then, Tomas said, "You certainly have our attention, Collins. But…we're very tired of feeling in the dark. If this is only going to make us feel more lost, I'm not sure we want it." He glanced at Kari again.
She nodded at him, then determinedly at Collins.
"Fair enough," the balding man said. "I don't think it will, but I'll be right here until you're out of questions. Honestly. This is the last thing I have to do today, so we have as much time together as you want." He seemed to notice the locked door behind Kari and Tomas, so he added, "And only that. Leave if you'd like; the key's in the door. Apologies for locking that so abruptly. Shared office and all that."
Kari and Tomas both relaxed visibly. "We'll listen, Collins."
"Alo? You've heard this before…"
"I'll stay, sir. You tell it best."
"Well, then." Collins cracked his knuckles loudly. Let's begin…"

Ravi Zacharias, Beloved Preacher and Apologist, Dies at 74
"in certain strands of evangelicalism, we sometimes think it is necessary to so humiliate someone of a different worldview that we think unless we destroy everything he holds valuable, we cannot preach to him the gospel of Christ...what I am saying is this, when you are trying to reach someone, please be sensitive to what he holds valuable."

Beloved Christian author and apologist Ravi Zacharias has died at the age of 74.
According to a press release from Ravi Zacharias International Ministries, Zacharias died in his Georgia home on Tuesday morning after a short battle with cancer.
As Christian Headlines previously reported, in March, Zacharias revealed that he had been diagnosed with a rare form of malignant cancer called Sarcoma. The cancer was discovered in the form of a tumor on his sacrum bone during back surgery.
Following his diagnosis, Zacharias began receiving chemotherapy treatments at the renowned M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, TX, in April.
Unfortunately, while the tumor on his sacrum was responding well to chemo, the cancer had metastasized and worsened in the areas where it had spread, Zacharias' daughter Sarah Davis shared in a statement last week.
"We have just learned that while the tumor in my dad's sacrum has been responding to the chemotherapy, the area where the cancer metastasized has actually worsened," Davis wrote in a statement. "His oncologist informed us that this cancer is very rare in its aggression and that no options for further treatment remain. Medically speaking, they have done all they are able."
Zacharias then returned to his home in Alpharetta, GA from the cancer treatment center where he spent his last days on Earth.
Zacharias, whose full name is Frederick Antony Ravi Kumar Zacharias, was born in Madras, now Chennai, India in 1946, to his mother, Isabella, and his father, Oscar.
While he grew up in a Christian home, it wasn't until age 17 that Zacharias began to believe in Jesus. After making an attempt on his own life, Zacharias was lying in a hospital bed when he was read Jesus' words, "Because I live, you will also live."
According to his official obituary, Zacharias would soon surrender his life to Christ and become determined to share the Good News.
In 1966, at just 20 years old, Zacharias immigrated to Canada where he would later meet veteran missionary to Vietnam, Ruth Jeffrey. In 1971, after hearing Zacharias – who had just earned an award for preaching at an international Youth for Christ congress – Jeffrey invited him to Vietnam.
It was on this trip to Vietnam, where Zacharias witnessed great violence including the deaths of several fellow missionaries, that the apologist established a profound trust in God and a "desire to stand beside those who minister in areas of great risk."
As such, Zacharias and his new wife, Margie, moved to Deerfield, Illinois to study at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. Zacharias received a Master of Divinity at Trinity and went on to teach at the Alliance Theological Seminary in New York while also traveling to preach on the weekends.
Then in 1983, Billy Graham invited Zacharias to speak at his inaugural International Conference for Itinerant Evangelists in Amsterdam.
At that conference, Zacharias would offer a fresh perspective – one many credit with changing the future of apologetics.
Zacharias shared his fear that "in certain strands of evangelicalism, we sometimes think it is necessary to so humiliate someone of a different worldview that we think unless we destroy everything he holds valuable, we cannot preach to him the gospel of Christ…what I am saying is this, when you are trying to reach someone, please be sensitive to what he holds valuable."
This desire to meet people where they are led Zacharias to established Ravi Zacharias International Ministries, a ministry group that works to this day to share the gospel around the world, in 1984.

To any novice sailor, the terminology can seem as vast as the waters they're looking to sail on. It is crucial to become familiar with the terms in order to sail safely, and to be able to set and receive orders. Here is a list of 20 terms that are crucial for any aspiring sailor, to help them in anything from navigating around the boat, to understanding simple manoeuvers.
1 | Aft: This is the back of a ship. If something is located aft, it is at the back of the sailboat. It can also be referred to as the stern.
2 | Bow: The front of the ship is called the bow. It crucial in knowing the bow's location in order to be able to correctly use the four definitions below.
3 | Port: When facing the bow, the port always refers to the left hand side of the boat.
4 | Starboard: Alternatively, when facing the bow, starboard refers to the right hand side of the boat.
5 | Tacking: Tacking is accomplished by turning the bow through the wind, allowing the wind to change from one side of the boat to the other. It is effectively sailing into oncoming wind in a zig-zag motion, as sailing directly into the wind can be difficult. It should be performed when the boat is going at a significant speed.
6 | Gybing:Gybing is the opposite, and is a manoeuvre that allows the boat to travel downwind. It involves turning the stern of the boat through the wind, but can be dangerous. The boom (defined after) can move aggressively than when tacking, so caution and practise are crucial.
7 | Boom: A horizontal pole which, when adjusted towards the direction of the wind, allows the sailboat to harness wind power in order to move forward or backwards.
8 | Starboard Tack: When wind comes from the starboard side of the boat.
9 | Port Tack: Alternately, when wind comes from the port side of the boat.
10 | Windward:Moving towards the wind.
11 |Leeward: Moving away from the wind.
12 | Rudder: A fibreglass, wood or metal fin that is found under the hull, and can be adjusted to correct any drift and steer the boat. Drift is common due to an imbalance between the wind and your boat.
13 | Muster Station:The point of meeting that members on the ship go to during an emergency (or a drill). If somebody is believed to be missing, a headcount takes place at their muster station.
14 | Fender:A cushion barrier that stops a boat from being damaged when docked by another boat or a pier.
15 | Boot top line:A marking of the water line on a boat.
16 | Lifeline:A wire that runs the length of the deck to help confine passengers, and ensure that nobody accidentally slips overboard.
17 | Heeling:As the boat tilts to one side.
18 | Luffing: When the airflow over the sail is disrupted, and the sail begins to flap in the wind due to not being held tight.
19 | Keel: A heavy paddle on the bottom of the boat that provides stability and is responsible for ensuring a boat does not capsize.
20 | Hull: The hull is the watertight body of a ship or boat. Above the hull is the superstructure and/or deckhouse, where present. The line where the hull meets the water surface is called the waterline. The structure of the hull varies depending on the vessel type.
21 | Head Down: The action of steering a boat away from the wind.
