The Best Day On Which The Sun Has Risen - Jumuah
By Sister Manahil
Edited by Imran Ayub
Alhamdulilah. Indeed, all praise is due to Allaah. We praise Him and seek His help and forgiveness. We seek refuge in Allaah from our souls' evil and our wrong doings. He whom Allaah guides, no one can misguide; and he whom He misguides, no one can guide. I bear witness that there is no (true) God except Allah – alone without a partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad (peace be upon him) is His 'Abd (servant) and messenger.
Allah, the Most High, says,
"O you who believe (Muslims)! When the call is proclaimed for the Salât (prayer) on the day of Friday (Jumu'ah prayer), come to the remembrance of Allâh [Jumu'ah religious talk (Khutbah) and Salât (prayer)] and leave off business (and every other thing), that is better for you if you did but know!"[1]
A. Virtues Of Friday
1. A Special Day Chosen By Allaah
Narrated Aboo Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him): I heard Allah's Apostle (peace be upon him) saying, "We (Muslims) are the last (to come) but (will be) the foremost on the Day of Resurrection though the former nations were given the Holy Scriptures before us. And this was their day (Friday) the celebration of which was made compulsory for them but they differed about it. So Allah gave us the guidance for it (Friday) and all the other people are behind us in this respect: the Jews' (holy day is) tomorrow (i.e. Saturday) and the Christians' (is) the day after tomorrow (i.e. Sunday)."[2]
2. The Best Day Is Friday
Narrated Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him):
The Apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him) said:
"The best day on which the sun has risen is Friday; on it Adam was created, on it he was made to enter Paradise, on it he was expelled from it. And the last hour will take place on no day other than Friday."[3]
3. It Is Greater Than The Days Of 'Eid
It was narrated that Abu Lubaabah ibn 'Abd al-Mundhir said:
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "Friday is the master of days, and the greatest of them before Allaah. It is greater before Allaah than the day of al-Adha and the day of al-Fitr. It has five characteristics: on this day Allaah created Adam, on it He sent Adam down to the earth, on it Allaah caused Adam to die, on it there is a time when a person does not ask Allaah for anything but He gives it to him, so long as he does not ask for anything haraam, and on it the Hour will begin. There is no angel who is close to Allaah, no heaven, no earth, no wind, no mountain and no sea that does not fear Friday."[4]
4. Whoever Dies On Friday Is Protected From The Trial Of The Grave
Narrated 'Abd-Allaah ibn 'Amr (may Allah be pleased with him): The Messenger of Allaah (peace be upon him) said:
"There is no Muslim who dies during the day of Friday or the night of Friday but Allaah will protect him from the trial of the grave."[5]
B. Some Things To Do On Friday
1. Pray Fajr In Congregation
It was narrated by Ibn 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him): The Apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him) said:
"The best prayer before Allaah is Fajr prayer on Friday in congregation."[6]
Narrated Aboo Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him):
The Apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him) used to recite the following in the Fajr prayer of Friday, "[32] Surah As-Sajdah (The Prostration) and [76] Surah Al-Insan (Man)."[7]
2. Praying Salaat Al-Jumu'ah:
3. Making A Lot Of Du'aa'.
Narrated Aboo Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him): The Apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him) talked about Friday and said,
"There is an hour (opportune time) on Friday and if a Muslim gets it while praying and asks something from Allah, then Allah will definitely meet his demand." And he (the Prophet) pointed out the shortness of that time with his hands."
Narrated Anas ibn Maalik (may Allah be pleased with him):
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Seek the hour in which there is hope that prayers will be answered, on Friday after 'Asr (mid-afternoon) prayer, until the sun goes down."[11]
4. Reading Soorah al-Kahf:
4.1 Soorah al-Kahf (Chapter 18)
Sheikh Muhammed Salih Al-Munajjid said,
"There are saheeh ahaadeeth from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) concerning the virtues of reciting Soorah al-Kahf during the day or night of Jumu'ah (Friday). … The soorah may be read during the night or the day of Jumu'ah. The night of Jumu'ah starts from sunset on Thursday, and the day of Jumu'ah ends at sunset. Therefore the time for reading this soorah extends from sunset on Thursday to sunset on Friday."[12]
Narrated Aboo Sa'eed al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Whoever recites Surah al-Kahf on Jumu'ah will have illumination from the light from one Jumu'ah to the next."[13]
Narrated Aboo Sa'eed al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said:
"Whoever reads Soorat al-Kahf on the night of Jumu'ah, will have a light that will stretch between him and the Ancient House (the Ka'bah)."[14]
5. Sending a lot of blessings upon the Prophet (peace be upon him).
Narrated Aws ibn Aws (may Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said:
"Among the most excellent of your days is Friday; on it Adam was created, on it he died, on it the last trumpet will be blown, and on it the shout will be made, so invoke more blessings on me that day, for your blessings will be submitted to me." The people asked: "Apostle of Allah, how can it be that our blessings will be submitted to you while your body is decayed?" He replied: "Allah, the Exalted, has prohibited the earth from consuming the bodies of Prophets."[23]
6. Making Ghusl and wearing perfume
Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him): Allah's Apostle (peace be upon him) said,
"The taking of a bath on Friday is compulsory for every male (Muslim) who has attained the age of puberty."[24]
Narrated Salman-Al-Farsi (may Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said,
"Whoever takes a bath[25] on Friday, purifies himself as much as he can, then uses his (hair) oil or perfumes himself with the scent of his house, then proceeds (for the Jumu'ah prayer) and does not separate two persons sitting together (in the mosque), then prays as much as (Allah has) written for him and then remains silent while the Imam is delivering the Khuthbah, his sins in-between the present and the last Friday would be forgiven."[26]
C. The Virtues Of Jumu'ah (Friday) Prayer
1. Sins Between Two Fridays Are Forgiven
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "He who took a bath and then came for Jumu'ah prayer and then prayed what was fixed for him, then kept silence till the Imam finished the sermon, and then prayed along with him, his sins between that time and the next Friday would be forgiven, and even of three days more."[27]
2. Coming Early To Jumu'ah Brings Great Reward.
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Any person who takes a bath on Friday like the bath of Janaabah and then goes for the prayer (in the first hour i.e. early), it is as if he had sacrificed a camel (in Allah's cause); and whoever goes in the second hour it is as if he had sacrificed a cow; and whoever goes in the third hour, then it is as if he had sacrificed a horned ram; and if one goes in the fourth hour, then it is as if he had sacrificed a hen; and whoever goes in the fifth hour then it is as if he had offered an egg. When the Imam comes out (i.e. starts delivering the Khuthbah), the angels[28] present themselves to listen to the Khuthbah."[29]
3. The Virtue Of Walking To The Friday Prayer
Narrated Aws ibn Aws (may Allah be pleased with him):
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Whoever does ghusl on Friday and causes (his wife) to do ghusl, and sets out early, and comes close to the imam and listens and keeps quiet, for every step he takes he will have the reward of fasting and praying qiyaam for one year."[30]
Ibn al-Qayyim said, "Causes (his wife) to do ghusl" means has intercourse with his wife. This is how it was interpreted by Wakee'."[31]
D. Some Important Points When At The Prayer
1. The Importance Of Listening Attentively To The Jumu'ah Khuthbah
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "If you (even) ask your companion to be quiet on Friday while the Imam is delivering the sermon, you have in fact talked irrelevance [ie. engaged in idle talk]."[32]
Narrated Abu'l-Darda' (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) sat on the minbar and addressed the people, and he recited a verse. Ubayy ibn Ka'b was next to me, so I said to him:
"O Ubayy, when was this verse revealed?" But he refused to speak to me, so I asked him again and he refused to speak to me, until the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) came down (from the minbar). Then Ubayy said to me: "You have gained nothing from your Jumu'ah except idle talk." When the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) had finished (the prayer), I went to him and told him (what had happened). He said:"Ubayy was right. When you hear your imam speaking, then keep quiet and listen attentively until he has finished."[33]
Sheikh Muhammad bin Saalih al-`Uthaymeen said:
"It is Haraam to give salaams during the Friday Khuthbah, so it is not permissible for one who enters the mosque whilst the imam is delivering the Khuthbah to give salaams, and it is also Haraam to return the greeting." [34]
Sheikh Naasir-ud-Deen al-Albaanee said:
"If someone says "Be quiet!", this is not regarded as idle talk (laghw) from a linguistic point of view, because it comes under the heading of enjoining what is good and forbidding what is evil. However the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) called it Laghw that is not permissible. This comes under the heading of giving precedence to what is more important (namely being silent and listening to the preaching of the khateeb) over what is important (namely enjoining what is good during the Khuthbah). As this is the case, everything that comes under the heading of enjoining what is good comes under the same ruling as enjoining what is good – so how about if it of less importance than that? Undoubtedly in that case it is more appropriate that it not be allowed and it comes under the heading of laghw (idle talk)."[35]
2. Face The Imaam
It was narrated that Abu Sa'eed al-Khudri (may Allaah be pleased with him) said:
"The Messenger of Allaah (peace be upon him) sat on the minbar and we sat around him."[36]
"One of the reasons for their turning their faces towards the imaam is to facilitate their listening to his words, and to observe good manners when listening to him. If a person turn his face towards him with the proper physical posture and a focused mind, that will better enable them to understand his preaching and is in accordance with the reason why the khateeb is commanded to stand."[37]
3. Sunnah Before and After Jumuah
3.1 Before
There are no prescribed Sunnah prayers before Jumu'ah and some people like to pray the Sunnah of Dhuhr at this time and this is incorrect and an innovation
Sheikh Naasir-ud-Deen al-Albaanee said,
"Those who pray this Sunnah are not following the Messenger or imitating any of the imaams; on the contrary, they are imitating the later scholars who are like them in that they are also imitators [of earlier scholars] rather than mujtahideen [scholars who investigate and form their own rulings]. I am amazed to see an imitator imitating another imitator."[38]
However, one should still pray two rakaats when they enter the Masjid (before sitting down). This applies even when you come and the Khuthbah has already begun.
Narrated Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him): A man entered the Mosque while the Prophet (peace be upon him) was delivering the Khutbah. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said to him,
"Have you prayed?" The man replied in the negative. The Prophet said, "Pray two Rakat."[39]
In another narration, it is stated: Jabir ibn 'Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said that the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) delivered the sermon and said:
"When any one of you comes for the Friday (prayer) and the Imam comes out (from his apartment), (even then) should observe two rak'ahs (of prayer)."[40]
3.2. After
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "When any one of you observes the Jumu'ah prayer (two obligatory rak'ahs in congregation), he should observe four (rak'ahs) afterwards."[42]
4. Changing the place to Pray the Sunnah
'Umar ibn 'Ata' ibn Abu Khuwar said that Nafii ibn Jubair sent him to al- Sa'ib the son of Namir's sister with a view to asking him about what he had seen in the prayer of Mu'awiyah. He said:
"Yes, I observed the Jumu'a prayer along with him in Maqsura and when the Imam pronounced salutation I stood up at my place and observed (Sunan rak'ahs). As he entered (the apartment) he sent for me and said: Do not repeat what you have done. Whenever you have observed the Jumu'a prayer, do not observe (Sunan prayer) till you, have talked or got out For the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) had ordered us to do this and not to combine two (types of) prayers without talking of going out."[44]
This hadith tells us that in case someone performs a certain prayer at a certain place; he should not perform another Salah at the same place and at the same time. There must be a distance in between the two prayers either by a way of change in the place or by way of Dhikr (mentioning Allah's Names or the utterance of different prescribed supplications).[45]
E. Ruling On Not Going To Jumu'ah
Narrated Abdullah ibn 'Umar and Aboo Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with them): They heard Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) say on the planks of his pulpit: "People must cease to neglect the Friday prayer or Allah will seal their hearts and then they will be among the negligent."[46]
Narrated Al-Ja'd ad-Damari (may Allaah be pleased with them): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said:
"He who leaves the Friday prayer (continuously) for three Friday on account of slackness, Allah will print a stamp on his heart."[47]
Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allaah have mercy on him) said,
"Friday prayer is one of the most important obligations in Islam, and one of the greatest gatherings of the Muslims. Gathering on Friday is more important and more obligatory than any other gathering apart from 'Arafah. Whoever neglects it, Allaah will place a seal on his heart."[48]
F. Jumu'ah Prayer Is Not Obligatory For Women, Slaves, The Sick And Travellers
Narrated Tariq ibn Shihab (may Allaah be pleased with them): The Prophet (peace be upon him) said:
"The Friday prayer in congregation is a necessary duty for every Muslim, with four exceptions; a slave, a woman, a boy, and a sick person."[49]
Ibn al-Mundhir (may Allaah have mercy on him) said,
"They are unanimously agreed that Jumu'ah is not obligatory for women."[50]
Sheikh Sayyid Saabiq said,
"For the traveller, even if he is staying at a certain place during the time of the beginning of salatul Jumu'ah, it is not obligatory. This is based on the fact that the Prophet (peace be upon him) travelled and did not perform the salatul Jumu'ah but only prayed the zuhr and 'asr together during the time of the zuhr prayers. The caliphs after him and others also acted in a similar manner."[51]
Any woman (and man) who wishes to come to the mosque must be in the correct Islamic dress.
And It is Only Allah Who grants success. May Allah Exalt the mention of His slave and Messenger Muhammad, and render him, his household and companion safe from Evil.

FDT pro presents brand new jacket for intensive training sessions on cold rainy, foggy days.
Waterproof materials of this jacket ensure you stay dry during unpleasant weather conditions especially if walking / training your dog outdoor.
This jacket is called "pro" for a reason. First of all, every detail of this tracksuit including its cut, style, length, material, placement and kind of pockets, is carefully developed specially for people who do spend much time with dogs. Moreover it is made of waterproof nylon that will help you stay dry much longer and not to finish your training earlier.

Q: How to get the X-Frame-Options value from a website URL's Response Headers in Angular 7? I need to find out if a URL can be previewed in an iFrame (some users will want this feature - and may have a url set to allow displaying in an iFrame). I want to check for an X-Frame-Options value of Deny or SameOrigin
I found a lot of examples of making an http client get request to api's. But I am having trouble finding an example for my specific use case.
I just need to return the headers after requesting a url. Below is one example of the many I have tried.
How is the X-Frame-Options value fetched from a URL, client-side, using Angular?
import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { Observable } from 'rxjs';
import { HttpClient, HttpHeaders, HttpResponse } from '@angular/common/http';

@Injectable({
  providedIn: 'root'
})
export class WebUrlPreviewService {
  private requestHeaders: HttpHeaders;

  constructor(private http: HttpClient) {
    this.requestHeaders = new HttpHeaders();
    this.requestHeaders.append('Content-Type', 'application/json');
    this.requestHeaders.append('Accept', 'application/json');
  }

  getResponseHeaders(url: string):Observable<HttpResponse<HttpHeaders>> {
    return this.http.get<HttpHeaders>(url, {observe: 'response'});
  }
}

A:
I just need to return the headers after requesting a url.

If I understood your problem correctly, you only want to retrieve back the headers. To do that, you can use HttpClient's HEAD request to only get the response's headers without the body.
What is HEAD, from Mozilla docs:

The HTTP HEAD method requests the headers that are returned if the specified resource would be requested with an HTTP GET method. Such a request can be done before deciding to download a large resource to save bandwidth, for example.

Service
@Injectable({
  providedIn: 'root'
})
export class WebUrlPreviewService {
  private requestHeaders: HttpHeaders;

  constructor(private http: HttpClient) {}

   headRequest(url: string):Observable<any> {
    return this.http.head(url, {observe: 'response'}); //is observe property necessary to make this http call? If not you can remove it.
  }
}

Component
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {

  constructor(private webUrlPreviewService: WebUrlPreviewService){}

  ngOnInit(){
    this.webUrlPreviewService.headRequest("https://api.github.com").subscribe(
      (data: HttpResponse<any>) => {
        console.log(data);
        console.log(data.headers.get('ETag'));
        console.log(data.headers.get('X-Frame-Options'));
      }

    )
  }
}

console log results
HttpResponse {headers: {…}, status: 200, statusText: "OK", url: "https://api.github.com/"…}

W/"5ce06fd8cae5bfa1bcfcf398e0d07415"

null

As you can see, data.headers.get('X-Frame-Options') returns null. That is because api.github.com Http Headers has set Access-Control-Expose-Headers not to expose X-Frame-Options.
E.g. exposed custom headers does not include X-Frame-Options.
Access-Control-Expose-Headers →ETag, Link, Location, Retry-After, X-GitHub-OTP, X-RateLimit-Limit, X-RateLimit-Remaining, X-RateLimit-Reset, X-OAuth-Scopes, X-Accepted-OAuth-Scopes, X-Poll-Interval, X-GitHub-Media-Type
Hence, do note that your backend should set that Access-Control-Expose-Headers to include X-Frame-Options.

Another killer day in Florida for the gang (so was yesterday, when we had possibly the best looks at Mangrove Cuckoo one could ask for)...today was our boat trip to the Dry Tortugas. Only the highlights below.
We ended up with a four Sulid day, in order of appearance: Northern Gannet, Brown Booby, Masked Booby, and RED-FOOTED BOOBY.
But the day started out with a BLACK NODDY scoped from atop Fort Jefferson. Amazingly, right where John Puschock described in his recent ABARare blog post. After we soaked that one up, I began to scan the rest of Bush Key and was quite surprised to find a second Black Noddy. These two birds would be visible for much of the next hour, though they did not associate with one another. Both were digiscoped. Awesome. We were prepared for a needle-in-haystack vigil but ended up with an instant payoff.
At the very end of the day, while scoping with Frank from the very same spot, he suggested that we give one last look at offshore boobies. I picked up on a partially obscured light-to-mid brown bird roosting in a distant tree with frigatebirds on Long Key. At this point we had to board the ferry and were worried we would not get a definitive look at this interesting bird, which we could only ID as a dark booby and perhaps a good one. While we were on the boat a few of the frigatebirds flew off the tree, allowing for unobstructed scope views of what would be a RED-FOOTED BOOBY. Perfect way to end the day. We were very happy to chase the Thick-billed Vireo and Black Noddy but it's always nicer to find your own rarities. Apologies for the awful photos, so dark and noisy that the details visible in the field blend together and make it appear darker, unlike warm/tan tinge that was apparent in the field, especially as compared to the several nearby Brown Boobies. I believe this is a subadult, especially given the whitish tail.
Saw this on the ABA blog too...nice find indeed. Sounds like a great trip to FL.
Thanks Larry, yes, twas a very nice week.

The Student News Site of Hudson High School
Meet the Finalists
Arena, Flynn, and Medieros Make the Final Cut
Veronica Mildish, Editor
After being narrowed down from the candidates by the select committee, the top three candidates for the Hudson High School's principal search were announced on Friday, March 1st.
The three that were picked are Richard Arena, Colleen "Kelly" Flynn, and Jason Medieros. Each is qualified for the job; all of whom have a strong work history in education, and are currently Assistant Principals at their respective schools.
They have become familiar with HHS and have shown great interest in the academics, activities and supports the school provides for students.
"I am impressed by all that Hudson High School offers its students and the vision and mission of the school," Flynn stated.
Arena continued to compliment the school.
"Of the several HHS staff with whom I have worked, I found them to be professional, earnest, but most importantly, focused on what is best for students," Arena said.
While showing interest in the schools, the three candidates have shown plans for the future.
"The ARC initiative at HHS seems like a creative effort to make sure all students are getting what they need," Medieros stated, "That willingness to be flexible and innovative is certainly an example of the mindset that I would like to encourage for staff and students."
Other priorities include communication between staff and the Hudson community.
"I would form a number of focus groups, composed of faculty, staff, students and parents/guardians," Flynn stated, "My goal with these groups would be to listen and learn."
Arena echoes this idea.
"It will be crucial to learn about the characteristics and practices which educationally add to the experience of all students at HHS." Arena said, "Gaining an understanding of what practices work and what needs to be supported will be a critical starting point."
Medieros further explained his strengths as a potential candidate.
"I hope my work would reflect three core values: equity, respect, and community. As a person, I am calm and composed. I am a clear communicator." Medieros said.
On top of their plans for the future of HHS, they also have clear concepts on how to tackle problems.
"Understanding the many levels and details of a challenge is paramount in meeting them." Arena said, "Soliciting feedback from the stakeholders is the only way to collaboratively work towards a lasting solution."
Flynn spoke to her different approach.
"I like to work on challenges by creating teams/working groups," Flynn said. "There is a great deal of knowledge that exists in a high school, and there are many areas in which others have more expertise than I do."
All of them look forward to the vision they hope to implement as principal.
"HHS is not being built from the ground up. There are a lot of good things happening," Medeiros said, "It would be my role to honor that work while working with the community to set shared goals for improvement."

by Nfm Salute | May 27, 2022 | Honoree, Latest Releases, NFM Salute | 0 comments
In keeping with tradition, we release our June NFM Salute on Memorial Day to honor another hero and to learn what Memorial Day means to him. Please take a moment to hear the story of disabled Veteran Ryan Garrison, Staff Sergeant (Ret.), U.S.A.F.
NFM Lending is pleased to honor Staff Sergeant Ryan Garrison (Ret.), USAF, as the NFM Salute for June 2022.
Garrison grew up in Princeton, Indiana. With six of his relatives having served in the military, it was only natural that he would follow the same path. As a college student, Garrison worked towards a degree in Sports Medicine when 9/11 happened. "I knew all bets were off, and I had to do what I was supposed to do, which was enlist," he remembers. So he dropped out of college and enlisted in the U.S. Air Force.
He was stationed at Travis Air Base in California and later deployed to Pakistan in 2002 and Iraq in 2006. As an Air Transportation Specialist, Garrison managed the logistics of all air transport activities. One day while awaiting a shipment in Kirkuk, Iraq, Garrison's team was attacked by a local sheepherder acting on behalf of the insurgents. A rocket-propelled grenade (RPG) hit a transport vehicle, and the force of the impact threw Garrison backward, fracturing two of his spinal discs. Though he did not lose his life or the ability to walk, his injuries left him with lasting chronic pain and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
After receiving treatment and returning stateside, Garrison was assigned to Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland, where he performed special airlift operations. He escorted important dignitaries on and off their flights on Air Force One and Two, including Presidents George W. Bush and Barrack Obama. In 2016, Garrison medically retired from the Air Force after almost 15 years of service.
Garrison finished fighting on the battlefield, but now he had to contend with the intense pain and fear he felt within himself. "There was always that part in the back of my head I was thinking there was somebody out there, ready to just fire another rocket at us," he said. "That constant thought in the back of my head, it would show up in anxiety. At night, I would have dreams of being over there. "
Garrison's life changed for the better in 2016 when he partnered with a service dog named Luke. "I always say that he saved my life because, with him, he always alerts me to anxiety cues," he said. "My knees bounce, my hands jiggle, he comes up and just lets me know that I'm getting ready to have one. He wakes me up from dreams, so with my therapy dog, I took a lot less medication, and nowadays, my dreams are once a month. My anxiety attacks are maybe once a week, if that." Not only was Luke a turning point for Garrison's mental health, but it was also an eye-opening experience for how nontraditional treatments can benefit Veterans.
In 2018, Garrison founded his own nonprofit, Valor Therapeutics. With his wife Julie, a certified music therapist, he teaches active service members, military Veterans, and first responders to channel their complex emotions through the arts. Once a week for eight weeks, his team leads a small group of "Defenders" through visual arts, music, and yoga. These activities allow participants to understand their feelings in a way talking alone cannot. Garrison likes to call what they practice "complementary therapies" because their holistic approach can enhance traditional treatments that Veterans may also be seeking. "You can only go so far by talking, and around here, it's very hard to find a therapist," he said. "Mental health is so important to me and all the Veterans I know that are fighting it."
Garrison lives in Dayton, OH, with his wife Julie, their children, and his service dog, Luke. Garrison was nominated by the NFM Salute for December 2021, Jessica Astorga.

Home transfer Liverpool poised to beat Manchester United to signing of France youth star Yasser Larouci
Liverpool poised to beat Manchester United to signing of France youth star Yasser Larouci
Liverpool are poised to beat Manchester United and Southampton to France youth international Yasser Larouci
The 16-year-old attacking midfielder played for Paul Pogba's former club Le Havre but has rejected their offer of a contract and is a free agent.
Born in Algeria, Larouci, who can play on the wing or behind the striker, had a trial at Southampton in December and was also watched by Manchester United.
However, Liverpool are now confident of him signing up with their academy.
The Reds have been away on a mid-season training camp in La Manga this week.
Jurgen Klopp's side had over two weeks without a first-team fixture due to their fourth-round FA Cup exit at the hands of Wolves last month and used the chance to get away.

Q: Which one is best to calculate distance between two points? I tried to calculate the distance between two points in Google map.
Some of the link i found they are using
distanceTo() and somewhere it is calculated using distanceBetween().
Which is best to calculate distance?

A: This link might be helpful to you.
it allows to calculate the distance between two latitude longitude points:
This script calculates great-circle distances between the two points (i.e)the shortest distance over the earth's surface using the 'Haversine' formula.
var R = 6371; // Radius of the earth in km
var dLat = (lat2-lat1).toRad();  // Javascript functions in radians
var dLon = (lon2-lon1).toRad();
var a = Math.sin(dLat/2) * Math.sin(dLat/2) +
        Math.cos(lat1.toRad()) * Math.cos(lat2.toRad()) *
        Math.sin(dLon/2) * Math.sin(dLon/2);
var c = 2 * Math.atan2(Math.sqrt(a), Math.sqrt(1-a));
var d = R * c; // Distance in km.

Obama is black, first and foremost because he looks black. That alone triggers all of the reflexive prejudice and animus that define the black experience in the United States. One could engage in a philosophical discussion on the nature of racial identity, personal affinity, culture, etc., but for practical purposes, races are a product of racism and racial habits—not the other way round. And racism is rather crude and simplistic. The typical racist identifies and hates black on sight—he doesn't care about the complexities of mixed parentage, Ivy League education, or immigration status. And even non-racists reflexively assign people a racial identity on sight. Because race is a social category and not a biological or genetic one, Obama's mixed parentage does not determine his race. Mixed parentage may influence one's appearance, and a person whose appearance is racially ambiguous can influence how she is perceived. In such instances, race may be a question of personal affiliation to some extent. And mixed parentage may influence how one chooses to identify. But for the most part, society assigns us our races. At any rate, Obama's appearance is not ambiguous, and he unquestionably identifies as black.

The Impure Imagination: Toward a Critical Hybridity in Latin American Writing
5 7⁄8 x 9
Paper ISBN: 0-8166-4786-0; ISBN-13: 978-0-8166-4786-6
Cloth ISBN: 0-8166-4785-2; ISBN-13: 978-0-8166-4785-9
Joshua Lund, Associate Professor of Hispanic Languages and Literature
Challenges conventional thinking about the widely accepted concept of cultural hybridity.
"Hybridity" is a term that has been applied to Latin American politics, literature, and intellectual life for more than a century. During the past two decades, it has figured in—and been transfigured by—the work of prominent postcolonialist writers and thinkers throughout the Americas.
In this pathbreaking work, Joshua Lund offers a thoughtful critique of hybridity by reading contemporary theories of cultural mixing against their historical precursors. The Impure Imagination is the first book to systematically analyze today's dominant theories in relation to earlier, narrative manifestations of hybridity in Latin American writing, with a particular focus on Mexico and Brazil.
Generally understood as the impurification of standard or canonized forms, hybridity has historically been embraced as a basic marker of Latin American regional identity and as a strategy of resistance to cultural imperialism. Lund contends that Latin American theories and narratives of hybridity have been, and continue to be, underwritten by a structure of colonial power. Here he provides an informed critique and cogent investigation of this connection, its cultural effects, and its political implications. Using the emergence of hybridity as an analytical frame for thinking about culture in the Americas, Lund examines the contributions of influential thinkers, including Néstor García Canclini, Homi Bhabha, Jacques Derrida, Giorgio Agamben, Jorge Luis Borges, Antonio Candido, and many others.
Distinguished by its philosophical grounding and underpinned with case studies, The Impure Imagination employs postcolonial theory and theories of race as it explores Latin American history and culture. The result is an original and interrogative study of hybridity that exposes surprising—and unsettling—similarities with nationalistic discourses.
