Things that go bump in the night...
As halloween approaches, I thought it timely to share a post from the Hoydens and Firebrands blog. A tale of witches and the real life 'Witch Finder General' - Matthew Hopkins...
Among the (possibly) inappropriate reading I indulged in as a young teenager (where was Harry Potter?), I devoured the stories of Robert Neill, who wrote several books set in the English Civil War period. His book "Witch Bane" begins with a young woman suspected of witchcraft being publicly stripped and submitted to trial by "pricking". (It was a common belief held that a witch could be discovered through the process of pricking their skin with needles, pins and bodkins and body of the woman (or man!) was closely searched for the "witch's mark" to which the bodkin was applied in the belief that the person would not feel pain or bleed when pricked). Even though "Witch Bane" is long out of print, I won't give away any more of the plot but the slightly salacious cover alone was enough to grip me from the start!
So as Halloween approaches and thoughts turn to "ghosties and ghoulies and long legged beasties and things that go bump in the night", I cast around for an appropriate topic for this post. There are others who are experts in the area of seventeenth century witches but, in the memory of "Witch Bane", I thought I might have a look at one person whose name inspired fear throughout England of the 1640s and 1650s… Matthew Hopkins - The Witchfinder General.
"Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live" EXODUS xxn. 18
In 1604 James I passed the the Witchcraft Statute which made "witchcraft" a capital offence if the victim was injured. It also incorporated a number of continental notions of witchcraft, including those of, a pact with, and worship of, the devil and made the exhumation of bodies for "magical purposes" a crime. This statute remained in force until 1736, when it was finally repealed. Following the Lancashire witch trials of 1634, there was a requirement of material proof of being a witch (some physical manifestion of a pact with the devil).
Little is known of Matthew Hopkins' early life. It is thought he was born in Little Wenham in Suffolk in the early 1620s (making him a comparitively young man at the time he rose to infamy). It is postulated that he studied law.
The English Civil War (1642-1645) was at its height when Matthew first comes to public notice. In a country torn apart by violence, politics and religion and where fear and superstition prevailed, the moment was opportune for a young man with a fervent belief that he had the power to rid the country of witches and in 1644 we have the first public mention of Matthew. Essex and the Eastern counties where Matthew worked was the seat of power for the puritan forces and it is from this seething hot bed of religious fervour that the witch mania rose.
In 1644 Hopkins fell in with an already established "witch pricker", John Stearne. Hopkins claimed to have overheard several witches discussing their meetings with the devil: "…March 1644 he had some seven or eight of that horrible sect of Witches living in the Towne where he lived, a Towne in Essex called Maningtree, with divers other adjacent Witches of other towns, who every six weeks in the night (being alwayes on the Friday night) had their meeting close by his house and had their severall solemne sacrifices there offered to the Devill, one of which this discoverer heard speaking to her Imps one night, and bid them goe to another Witch…"
As a consequence a trial of twenty three women was held at Chelmsford in 1645. Four died in prison and nineteen were hung. Following the notoriety of that trial Hopkins and Stearne became self appointed "witch finders" (the term Witch Finder General bears no official stamp of approval). The work of carrying out the "pricking" was done by well paid (and no doubt zealous) female assistants. In the vacuum of proper authority caused by the war, Hopkins and Stearne operated throughout the eastern counties with relative impunity.
Hopkins' favourite methods of interrogation (bearing in mind torture was by now illegal in England) were "swimming" (where the woman was bound and thrown into a pond…if she floated she was deemed a witch as she was being rejected the waters of baptism…if she sank, and most likely drowned, then obviously she was innocent); cutting with a blunt knife or sleep deprivation. Hopkins was ordered to discontinue swimming in 1645, unless he had the subject's permission! By far his favourite was "pricking" (described briefly above). The victim would be shaved of all hair and if a mole or an extra nipple was discovered, it was deemed that this would be the means by which the witch would suckle the devil or an incubus or imp. If found guilty the most common form of execution was hanging. It is estimated that Hopkins was probably responsible for the death of some 200 people between 1645 and 1647.
He wrote a pamphlet describing his methods - The Discovery of Witches - which made its way across the Atlantic to the new colonies and his methods were employed in the witch trials of the New World, most notably the Salem witch trial of the 1690s.
However by 1647 Hopkins began to run into opposition. Sermons were preached against the work of Hopkins and Stearne and his methods (and the fees he charged for his work) were called into question by the authorities in Norfolk.
Mistley Pond
Matthew Hopkins died in August 1647 in his home town of Manningtee in Essex. While it is more than likely that nothing more extraordinary than tuberculosis carried him off, for such a controversial figure there is a legend that he met his end after being accused of witchcraft and subjected to his own 'swimming' test. It is said his ghost haunts the pond at Mistley.
The last execution in England for witchcraft was Alicia Molland who was executed in Essex in March 1684,he last conviction in 1712
And in the spirit of Halloween here is the master of horror himself, Vincent Price, in his 1968 portrayal of Matthew Hopkins in the film "The Witchfinder General".
Sweet dreams...

HunterGirl on the Pros and Cons of Performing on 'American Idol' Versus Her Own Tour
Grace Lenehan Vaughn Updated: December 30, 2022

Half a year removed from her runner-up finish on Season 20 of American Idol, HunterGirl is paving her way in country music by releasing her own original songs and touring all over the country.
The Tennessee native certainly has experience playing on big stages, as she performed on national TV throughout her stint on the singing competition. However, she says curating her own show is much different from singing on Idol.
One of the positives of playing her own shows versus singing on Idol is the amount of preparation time she has before her performance, she says.
"On the show, it was scary," HunterGirl admitted in an Instagram Live interview with Taste of Country. "You're just so nervous because you're playing on everybody's TV screens all at once. There's a lot of pressure and it's like, 'Oh my gosh.' But I had a lot of fun, too. We were learning songs on the fly as well. You know, we have a lot of time to prepare for a tour, so learning a song in a couple of days and singing it on live television can get a little nerve-racking."
Being featured on a national television show did have its perks, though: HunterGirl says she was in awe of the way show was produced and how the contestants were treated like stars before they became them.
"It's also a really cool experience being on TV because of how much work everybody puts in: The lights, somebody's dressing you, somebody's doing your hair, and they really took care of us."
"It was just so cool to feel like the people that I looked up to forever. Like, 'Oh my gosh, they do this every day? This is awesome,'" she says. "Then we're flying everywhere and I hadn't really been on a plane too much before the show."
In addition to having more time to prepare, HunterGirl says another important aspect of performing on her own tour is getting to create special moments with the fans who come to her shows.
"It's also kind of an intimate experience because all the people that are there in that moment for that hour, hour and a half that I get to have them, we get to make our own little journey, our own little experience that's special to this group of people that were awesome enough to come out and buy a ticket to the show," she says.
"It's two different sides of it because it was so special getting to be on TV," she says. "And then the flip side of it, getting to do a tour show, it's different because you get to have this group of people that you're trying to have a good time with by the end of the night. I'm just lucky that I got to experience both."
HunterGirl has a handful of dates on her schedule early next year.

Q: Why does this code only work inside a function? I have this JavaScript that is not in a function:
var numbers = ["1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9", "10", "11", "12", "13", "14", "15"];
numbers.sort(function () {
    return 0.5 - Math.random();
});
numbers.push("here");
document.getElementById("b1").innerHTML = numbers[0];
document.getElementById("b2").innerHTML = numbers[1];
document.getElementById("b3").innerHTML = numbers[2];
document.getElementById("b4").innerHTML = numbers[3];
document.getElementById("b5").innerHTML = numbers[4];
document.getElementById("b6").innerHTML = numbers[5];
document.getElementById("b7").innerHTML = numbers[6];
document.getElementById("b8").innerHTML = numbers[7];
document.getElementById("b9").innerHTML = numbers[8];
document.getElementById("b11").innerHTML = numbers[9];
document.getElementById("b12").innerHTML = numbers[10];
document.getElementById("b13").innerHTML = numbers[11];
document.getElementById("b14").innerHTML = numbers[12];
document.getElementById("b15").innerHTML = numbers[13];
document.getElementById("b16").innerHTML = numbers[14];
document.getElementById("b10").innerHTML = numbers[15];
document.getElementById("b10").style.backgroundColor = "white";

but it doesn't work. I know that it works up to the end of line three, but none of the buttons (the buttons that have the ids b1, b2, b3...) say anything.
When I change it to this:
var numbers = ["1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9", "10", "11", "12", "13", "14", "15"];
numbers.sort(function () {
    return 0.5 - Math.random();
});
numbers.push("here");

function buttonClick() {
    document.getElementById("b1").innerHTML = numbers[0];
    document.getElementById("b2").innerHTML = numbers[1];
    document.getElementById("b3").innerHTML = numbers[2];
    document.getElementById("b4").innerHTML = numbers[3];
    document.getElementById("b5").innerHTML = numbers[4];
    document.getElementById("b6").innerHTML = numbers[5];
    document.getElementById("b7").innerHTML = numbers[6];
    document.getElementById("b8").innerHTML = numbers[7];
    document.getElementById("b9").innerHTML = numbers[8];
    document.getElementById("b11").innerHTML = numbers[9];
    document.getElementById("b12").innerHTML = numbers[10];
    document.getElementById("b13").innerHTML = numbers[11];
    document.getElementById("b14").innerHTML = numbers[12];
    document.getElementById("b15").innerHTML = numbers[13];
    document.getElementById("b16").innerHTML = numbers[14];
    document.getElementById("b10").innerHTML = numbers[15];
    document.getElementById("b10").style.backgroundColor = "white";
}

The function buttonClick is called when the user presses any of the buttons, and when I press one of the buttons, the words are added to the buttons. Does anyone know why it only works inside of the function and how to change it so that it works outside of the function too?

A: I imagine it's because those elements are not in the DOM when that code is being run. You can put it in a window.onload event or use jQuery's $(document).ready() function.
Alternatively you can stick this code in the <head> or right before the closing </body> tag and it should work.

A: The DOM might not have finished rendering when the JS executes.
Put the JS at the end of the <body> tag. Then you won't need the function.
Or do the below if you're only looking for modern browser support. No jQuery needed!
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded',function(){
  var numbers=["1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9", "10", "11", "12", "13", "14", "15"];
  numbers.sort(function() {return 0.5 - Math.random()});
  numbers.push("here");
  document.getElementById("b1").innerHTML=numbers[0];
  document.getElementById("b2").innerHTML=numbers[1];
  document.getElementById("b3").innerHTML=numbers[2];
  document.getElementById("b4").innerHTML=numbers[3];
  document.getElementById("b5").innerHTML=numbers[4];
  document.getElementById("b6").innerHTML=numbers[5];
  document.getElementById("b7").innerHTML=numbers[6];
  document.getElementById("b8").innerHTML=numbers[7];
  document.getElementById("b9").innerHTML=numbers[8];
  document.getElementById("b11").innerHTML=numbers[9];
  document.getElementById("b12").innerHTML=numbers[10];
  document.getElementById("b13").innerHTML=numbers[11];
  document.getElementById("b14").innerHTML=numbers[12];
  document.getElementById("b15").innerHTML=numbers[13];
  document.getElementById("b16").innerHTML=numbers[14];
  document.getElementById("b10").innerHTML=numbers[15];
  document.getElementById("b10").style.backgroundColor="white";
});

Tirupati (telugu nyelven: తిరుపతి)  város Indiában, Ándhra Prades állam déli részén. Lakossága 287 ezer fő volt 2011-ben.

A város a közeli Tirumala-hegyen, 700 m magasan álló Srí Venkatésvara-templomról nevezetes.

Srí Venkatésvara-templom
A templomkomplexum igen forgalmas zarándokhely. Az igazgatás napi 60-70 ezer zarándokkal foglalkozik és naponta 18 órás darsant (istenségszemlélést) tart. Sok zarándok fogadalomból vagy az istenségnek köszönetképpen leborotváltatja a fejét.

A templom a 9. századból való, de számtalanszor felújították. Az aranyozott vimána és zászlótartó, és a belső szentély aranyozott bejárata hirdeti a templom gazdagságát. Az istenség gyémántkoronát visel, amely állítólag a világ legdrágább dísze. Az egész templomkomplexumot úgy építették meg, hogy a Venjkatésvara kegyeit kérő zarándokok hatalmas áradatát el tudja szállásolni. Ez Dél-India azon kevés templomai közé tartozik, amelynek belső szentélyébe nem-hinduk is beléphetnek. A templom környékén zöld völgyek vannak és az Ákás Gangá-vízesés, amelynek szent vizében fürdetik az istenséget.

Sok hívő megáll a hegy lábánál levő kis Ganésa-szentélynél és a városban levő Góvindarádzsa-Szvámi-templomnál, mielőtt felmegy a hegyen lévő templomhoz.

A Templomművészet Venkatésvarai Múzeumában templomok modelljei láthatók, fényképekkel és rituális tárgyakkal.

JRS UK calls for change as report finds Home Office work towards alternatives to detention is "a token"
Report published today finds weaknesses in Adults at Risk in Immigration Detention (AAR) policy
JRS UK has again called for urgent reform in the wake of a fresh report on the Home Office's Adults at Risk in Immigration Detention (AAR) policy.
The report, published today by the Independent Chief Inspect of Borders and Immigration, finds "significant weaknesses" in the Detention Gate-Keeping System, which is supposed to help protect the most vulnerable from detention; and concludes that progress towards alternatives to detention, which manage those subject to immigration control in the community, is "too slow" with pilots being so small as to be "a token". The report is based on an annual inspection conducted between November 2018 and May 2019.
Sarah Teather, JRS UK's Director, said: "JRS UK supports extremely vulnerable people held in detention sometimes for a very long time. Torture survivors regularly describe detention as torture. Detention not only causes further harm to vulnerable people – it creates vulnerability and causes trauma that lasts long after release. The report's finding that progress towards alternatives is tokenistic should act as a wake up call. Change is long overdue."
JRS UK's detention outreach team supports people held in Harmondsworth and Colnbrook Immigration Removal Centres near Heathrow airport. Since centres closed to visitors due to COVID-19, they are now providing phone support to those still detained.
The Adults at Risk in Immigration Detention policy was introduced in 2016, in response to Stephen Shaw's criticism about the frequent detention of torture survivors in his first review of the detention estate. It was ostensibly designed to protect vulnerable people from harmful detention. JRS UK and many others have criticised it for failing to do so. The AAR policy weighs levels of evidence of vulnerable against immigration factors when deciding whether to detain an individual or continue their detention.

Sergio is a father! Garcia and wife Angela welcome baby girl into world
This long shot could turn a $10 bet into $800 this week: 2023 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am odds This former Masters champion says 2023 will be his last Patrick Reed, after Teegate and Treegate, nearly wins. Of course he did.All News
By Kevin Cunningham
Sergio Garcia's wife Angela gave birth to the couple's first child, a girl, early in the morning on Wednesday (at 1:54 a.m., according to Augusta Chronicle reporter Scott Michaux). The best part? They gave her an Augusta National-inspired name: Azalea.
Garcia had a momentous year in 2017, both on the course and in his personal life. The PGA Tour veteran finally captured his first major championship victory at the Masters, defeating Justin Rose in a playoff. Garcia was embraced on the green by his then-fiancée Angela Akins. The couple tied the knot in July in Akins's home state of Texas.
Beautiful Azalea Adele Garcia was born on March 14 at 1:54am. So proud and impressed with my wife @TheAngelaAkins and the way she handled the pregnancy and delivery! Love you both so much pic.twitter.com/IGu1tV1QlA
— Sergio Garcia (@TheSergioGarcia) March 14, 2018
Azaleas are a flowering shrub that can be found all over the grounds at Augusta National, which used to be a nursery before it was converted into the legendary course we know it to be today. The bright pink Azalea blooms are as much a part of the Masters as the CBS theme song for the event. The par-5 13th hole at Augusta, part of the famed "Amen Corner", is named Azalea.
Garcia will returns to Augusta National in just a few weeks to defend his 2017 title, which is now sure-to-be an even more memorable experience for the new father.

After welcoming everyone at the airport with a hearty lunch and rollicking games of ninja, we were all super excited to start our first backcountry section. The next day, we headed north into the mountains where we would trek for three days into the stunning wilderness of Denali State Park.
While the switchbacks were steep on the trail, Tookie kept moral high by leading us in uplifting sing-alongs. Completing the hike, which was over six miles long, was a huge accomplishment, and left us ravenously hungry. Luckily, Conrad had taken immediately to our backcountry stoves, and was boiling water taken from our pristine alpine lake in no time. Cook crew, led by accomplished Head Chef Michela, whipped up Pad Thai complete garnished with scallions and parsley. Embracing his time in the backcountry, Cole drank the extra chicken juice to spare one of us from having to pack it out.
A refreshing night of sleep left us energized and ready for our day hike across the tundra next morning. Rain, our first Leader of the Day, set new standards for backcountry personal hygiene as we traversed the ridge line on a well developed trail. We stopped for a snack along the shore of an exquisite lake, where Mitchell was inspired to climb a small knoll that rose above us. After discussing it as a group, we decided to ascend. Roy's highlight was the view that awaited us at the summit. Stretching out before us in every direction was an endless green tundra accented by a filigree of delicate blue lakes. In the distance, the soaring snow capped peaks of the Alaska range beckoned us. We basked in the sun and marveled at the majesty of nature. On the way back to base camp, we navigated our way off-trail cross country led by Tomas. Once back at camp, we dined on pesto pasta under the midnight sun.
Our next adventure was a bus tour which took us deeper into the wilderness surrounding North America's tallest peak – Mount Denali, otherwise known as Mount McKinley. The tour was Reid's highlight thus far. He enjoyed the day of relaxation and basked in the glory of succeeding in his first backpacking experience. Austin spotted a massive bull moose through the willows, and we stopped to get a closer look. Our experience was further enhanced through interpretive presentations by a naturalist and a native Alaskan woman. Having experienced the raw majesty of the Alaskan interior on our trek, and increased our knowledge about and appreciation for the region on our tour, we headed south to Anchorage to prepare for the next leg of our journey. Next stop: sea kayaking in the incredible Prince William Sound!!!
We are having so much fun in this beautiful state. We cannot wait to regale you all with tales from our voyage near breathtaking glacier. We hope you are all having an amazing summer!!!!

Selkirk College Moves Forward with Additional Tech Programming
The Provincial Government has provided Selkirk College with $100,000 to develop two new programs aimed at providing opportunities in the growing and ever changing tech sector.
Efforts to better prepare the West Kootenay and Boundary region for emerging opportunities in the tech sector has received a boost with Selkirk College's plan to introduce two new programs that will provide learners with the education and skills required for future business and employment needs.
The Provincial Government has allocated $100,000 in start-up funding from the Ministry of Advanced Education, Skills & Training that will enable Selkirk College to further develop and launch both the Web Application Development Program and the Digital Fabrication & Design Program.
"Manufacturing is the fourth largest industry in British Columbia and with new technology, it's fast changing," says Neil Coburn, Selkirk College's Vice President of Education. "Our region currently lags behind in this sector of the economy and much of that has to do with the availability of relevant knowledge and skills. Both of these programs will help provide the right education to ensure we have the people who can fill what are typically high paying jobs or use their entrepreneurial savvy to build their own business."
Selkirk College Vice President of Education Neil Coburn sits in a Selkirk College computer lab. With the announced Provincial Government start-up funding, the college is getting ready to launch two new tech programs that will equip learners with the education and skills required for one of the fastest growing sectors of British Columbia's economy.
Both programs are currently in the planning stages, but the funding from Victoria will enable the college to move forward with the next crucial steps.
"To obtain good-paying, 21st Century jobs, people need access to affordable and relevant education and training opportunities," says Michelle Mungall, MLA for Nelson-Creston. "Funding two new tech programs at Selkirk College will open the doors to opportunities in the tech sectors for more students in our region."
In-Demand Skills for Students
The proposed Web Application Development Program is a 10-month certificate program with the first intake coming in September 2019. The program will produce graduates with strong coding skills, a solid understanding of business practices, and the skills to communicate clearly and concisely about business technologies. Learners will emerge from the program with the ability to present, implement and maintain emerging web-based technologies in ways that help organizations meet the demands of the ever-changing technical landscape.
"The Columbia Basin Rural Development Institute's Business Retention & Expansion Report, along with other recent reports, indicate a need for graduates with these skills in our region," says Coburn. "We already have clear employer-driven outcomes for the program and many of the pieces of the necessary curriculum and activities exist in our communities. This program can start delivering graduates by next summer."
The Digital Fabrication & Design Program is a proposed two-year program with multiple delivery formats. The program will teach applied technical skills to prepare students for a wide variety of digital fabrication careers. With instruction delivered in modules, students will receive the full spectrum of digital fabrication implementations and opportunities such as digital design, 3D printing, CNC (computer numerical control) machining and emerging technologies like robotics.
"Selkirk College has been an active supporter of the MIDAS fabrication lab in Trail which is a provincial leader in this type of technology," says Coburn, who started his career at Selkirk College as a mathematics and computer programming instructor. "Some of the brightest and most innovative businesses in the region are working with MIDAS and we are partnering closely with them to further develop this program."
The start-up funding from the province will allow Selkirk College to further develop the Digital Fabrication & Design Program with a launch expected in September 2019.
"These programs are aimed a wide variety of learners," says Coburn. "We are looking at duel-credit high school students, recent high school graduates, working professionals with specific professional development needs in emerging technologies and mature learners looking for a career change."
The funding from the Provincial Government is part of its effort to bolster the tech sector in British Columbia that currently generates approximately $29 billion in revenue and supports more than 106,000 good paying jobs. It is estimated that by 2027, there will be about 83,400 additional tech-related job openings in the province.
"This funding will enable us to train more of our tech talent locally, while helping to support the growth of tech industries in our region," says Katrine Conroy, MLA for Kootenay West. "Our government's start-up funding to expand tech programming will allow our regional college to add 40 additional student spaces in two new exciting tech-related programs."

2012 Australia Proof Sovereign and a SilverGoldBull 10 oz bar.
Is it me or has the Queen got a bit of 5 o'clock shadow there?
She's getting on a bit.
Received my order from @BackyardBullion - very happy! Also received a Rising Mermaid that he sent to me by mistake from his own stack - what is it with this forum and people sending me free terrible? This is the third time. Its a shame I believe in karma and always seem to let people know and then end up having to pay for stuff because once its in my hand I have a hard time giving it back lol .
Lol I know I know I just jest.
what is it with this forum and people sending me free terrible?
play with this giant lump of silver all day long and tell me you dont want to buy 100 more of them!
Small change and very uninteresting to mostly everyone here, but today I received the 1st silver I have ever held and the 1st 5oz of my stack!!
When it is your first ever silver it is never uninteresting!
Congrats, great first coins to get your stack started!
Received this 1822 Sovereign today.
Sometimes an auction "gamble" pays off and you can tick something off the "Wants" list.
Which auction did you find that one?
DNW and I was the only bidder!! I must admit the coin is better "in the flesh" than I expected for a PF62. Nice it's got Ultra Cameo too.
I hadn't seen it until today other than the Auction pictures.
I am thinking of sending it to NCS and see if they can work their magic.
A nice sov from @Bullionbilly and a great year of the horse from @arshimo2012.
Couple of brits off ebay.
Another coin arrived in the post today. This time a 1987 proof British sovereign to fill a gap in my Queen Elizabeth II date series. I purchased this coin from an EBay seller in the USA.
Great looking coin, am very happy.
Interesting to see how the Royal Mint packaging have changed from 1987 to now.
How does a 1968 fivepence complete a sixpence collection up to 1967?


This is part 1/2 on development with Docker. In this article, I'll be covering how and why you should be using Docker in development. In the next one, I'll cover production deployments.

WHY 205 LIVE STARS DISAPPEARED OFF RAW, WHY IMPACT CONTRACTED TALENTS CAN WRESTLE ANYWHERE AND MORE
By Mike Johnson on 2018-06-28 10:00:00
SUBMIT YOUR QUESTIONS TO THE PWINSIDER Q&A BY CLICKING HERE.
Which direction do you think SummerSlam is going, Brock vs. Roman again or Braun cashing in for a triple threat?
If it was me, I'd go with Seth vs. Brock with Braun cashing in during the bout. I can see Roman being in the slot that I think Seth should be in, however.
Why are the guys from 205 live not appearing on Raw anymore?
It was a decision made when Triple H took over as the showrunner of the 205 Live series as a way to keep the talents from being overexposed and to make sure they were kept in a position where they were protected. It was part of the company's strategy of trying to change the perception of the Cruiserweight division.
How come guys from Impact are allowed to work companies with nationally broadcasted TV shows? You see Aries working ROH & MLW; along with Callihan & Konnan?
Impact allows that because they simply can't afford to pay the talents a full-time salary that keeps them exclusive to Impact and Impact alone. So, the talents work wherever they want, making sure Impact has the priority for TV taping dates. Until Impact Wrestling is in a different financial position, that's how its going to be.
Impact has been pushing the Slammiversary PPV for the last several weeks. Does anyone still buy their PPVs?
While they are not likely to draw WWE-level numbers, obviously someone is buying them.
Why does Jim Cornette piss so many people off?
Some people don't like the truth. Some don't like hearing things they don't agree with. Some just assume he doesn't know what he's talking about and some, he likes to piss off. I think that covers it.


One of the main complements in the communions is the accessory of the hair that our daughter will wear on her big day. Normally this hair accessory consists of diadems, crowns or small communion headdresses, which are made in soft colors such as baby pink or old rose, light blue, white, water green, beige, mauve ... Flower compositions or bows are made although the feathers are increasingly taking more prominence in hair accessories.
One of the accessories of the hair for communion are the floral appliques, in which flowers of various textures are normally mixed, such as velvet flowers, silk and other fabrics that are usually small in size. Among the flowers that are used to make diadems or communion crowns we can find the preserved flowers among which we highlight the preserved hydrangeas that have a very elegant finish.
Another of the materials for headdresses that we usually use in the hair accessories for the communion are the bows, since they bring a romantic touch to any crown or diadem, whether or not flowers.
Choose your communion complement between our fantastic collection of headbands, crowns, appliques, tiaras, etc. We also make your communion accessory totally personalized with the materials for headgear you choose.

Why Gender Hierarchy is at Odds with Christian Faith and How it Leads to Abuse
By Mimi Haddad | July 22, 2012
Too often the patriarchy of Bible culture has been confused with the moral teachings of Scripture. This workshop will explore how Christians working to end slavery challenged power, dominance, and self-interest in interpreting Scripture so that the church might become more effective agents of reconciliation in the world. What might egalitarians today learn from the interpretative methods of the abolitionists in their work as agents of gender justice?

Transforming Our World of Faith: Attitudes About Sexual Harassment and Abuse
By Esther Mombo | July 22, 2012
The church in Africa has not been able to name and shame sexual harassment and abuse in society in general or in Christian families specifically. The silence has led to untold misery for sexual harassment survivors. In order for the church to remain credible in society, it must name and challenge sexual harassment, and must offer safe places for survivors of the same to find healing and wholeness.

Ripping up the Aftersales rulebook, by Sharon Ashcroft, HR Director at TrustFord
December 2, 2020	by	Sophie Oak
I'm Sharon Ashcroft, Board member and HR Director for TrustFord.
My role encompasses far more than overseeing our HR operation; there's a huge strategic element too, focused on evolving processes and culture within the Group to achieve our ultimate, continued goal – being an Employer of Choice. Improving diversity within our TrustFord Family is a huge part of that.
We've worked closely with the Automotive 30% Club in recent years to help inspire more females to join the industry and I'm proud that we already have 30% of our key leadership positions held by women. However, I'm very aware that we still have a long way to go.
A huge point of focus for me has been supporting the recruitment and development of women at all levels of the company – particularly in Aftersales roles. We currently have 7 female colleagues in managerial Aftersales roles and 8 female Technicians.
How can we continue to grow that number? Our culture and ethos have a huge part to play, both in encouraging women to join the company and promoting more progressive attitudes across the group.
Our Purpose, Principles and Ambition (PPA) are central to that, with particular focus on our principle of Care – which encourages all colleagues to think about how they conduct themselves at work and show respect and care to everyone at all times.
One of our ambitions is that we will grow and retain the best people. This highlights that equal opportunity for employment and progression will be available to all candidates – irrespective of their age, race or gender.
Our ethos is supported in our recruitment process. Many of our roles are recruited through our Assessment Centres, with candidates undergoing a series of tasks and interviews. This process ensures we recruit these on behaviours rather than experience, opening opportunities up to a wider range of candidates.
One of our most notable recent success stories is Clare Bennett, currently the Aftersales Manager at our TrustFord Wilmslow Ford Store
One of 4 female Aftersales Managers currently working within the Group, Clare joined us in 2014 as a Service Advisor. Within just 2 years she was named the Aftersales Manager at our old Hazel Grove site in Stockport. I caught up with Clare to get a perspective on her TrustFord journey.
Following the closure of our Hazel Grove site Clare was asked to take on the same role at a larger business, our Wilmslow Ford Store. She explains that this was a daunting prospect: "It was a massive move for me," Clare says. "I went from managing 6-8 Techs to a team of 25, at a far bigger site that was undergoing a million-pound refurb."
With a background in customer service, Clare faced numerous challenges: "Initially there was the attitude of, 'she's not technical, she doesn't know what she's talking about'," says Clare. "You need to earn that respect, which I think I've done now."
Colleagues across the business have been key to supporting Clare's development: "Nick Bolton, our GM here at Wilmslow has done a lot to guide and develop me. I've learned so much from him," says Clare. "The other Aftersales Managers across the group have been brilliant too. I know that I can pick up the phone at any time to ask for their help – it's really reassuring to have that support network."
The success of colleagues such as Clare suggests that many organisations need to rip up the rule book of what makes a successful Aftersales professional, and highlights why it's important that we continue to champion and support the progression of these women.
A lack of technical knowledge should not exclude capable, dedicated professionals from other backgrounds from being hired to senior Aftersales roles – indeed these people can bring a fresh perspective and other transferrable skills.
Many of Clare's Techs feel that she's more approachable, better organised and a superior problem solver than Aftersales Managers they've worked under elsewhere. Clare's team are one of the best performing Aftersales departments across our group, with a very low Technician turnover.
I believe attitudes are changing in the industry and that sharing success stories such as Clare's can only help us to make further progress. We need to make it clearer that there are a variety of progression routes to senior roles across automotive and that with the right attitude and aptitude, any role within the industry is attainable for anyone, regardless of their background, ethnicity or gender.

The Ely area is northern Minnesota's premier snowmobile hub with numerous on-trail facilities, accommodations for both large and small groups, and with plenty of food, entertainment and service centers. The Taconite Trail is the main thoroughfare in and out of Ely in the winter. Stretching 170 miles between Ely and Grand Rapids to the southwest, many spur routes will take you just about anywhere you want to go. The Tomahawk Trail, heading to the east, has 86 miles of varied terrain which the avid snowmobiler can use to connect up with hundreds of miles more of groomed trails.
If really good snowmobiling gets you excited about winter, then you need to ride in the Ely area! Experience the 170 mile Taconite Trail, the 80 mile Tomahawk Trail-rated a Top 10 ride by Supertrax, spur trails like the Fishing Lake, Stony, Taconite or Little Grassy and miles and miles of lake trails that create a never-ending ride. The tree cover surrounds the trail edges and the lack of traffic allows you to have a true wilderness experience. The Ely snowmobile trails are famous for their on-trail facilities where the trails stretch across three state forests and the Superior National Forest. Smooth rides along these famous routes are loaded with history and the Taconite's many spurs and loops make for some quality modern day pioneering. Here in the Ely area, the trails work closely with natural terrain offering one of the most scenic trail rides in the state. The tree cover that surrounds the trail edges, the lack of traffic and development allows you to have an uninhabited experience.
Many riders return to the Ely area each winter to enjoy its sheer beauty and varied terrain. It's a region where people clearly love snowmobiling and they know how to make you feel welcome. Find out for yourself!
Are you looking for a new and exciting trail ride?
Come to Ely and set off on the new Circle Tour ride! This self-guided, 3-5 day tour encompasses over 400 miles of pristine wilderness and awesome trails! Novice and experienced snowmobilers alike have the freedom to plan their own itinerary and experience friendly communities and quality services along the way. Usually, you can ride for miles and not see another sled! Now, that's an awesome ride!

The Andromeda Dyson Sphere is a Dyson sphere, previously located in the Andromeda Galaxy and inhabited by the Iconians and their Herald servants.
"Uneasy Allies": In 2410, Sela programs the Iconian gateway on Nopada Prime to lead to the Andromeda Dyson Sphere. Once there, she and the player discover Taris, whom they pursue through a small portion of the sphere. Once the player and Sela catch up to her and corner her against the edge of a building, Taris begs them to understand her actions which caused the destruction of Romulus, as well as her reasons for contacting the Iconians. Sela mocks her for her naïveté, then throws her off the edge. They then escape the sphere, fighting off an Elachi attack, and escaping a Harbinger. The Andromeda Dyson Sphere subsequently jumps to the Iconia System, marking the Iconians' return to the Milky Way.
"Broken Circle": The Alliance launches an all-out assault on the Sphere in an ill-fated attempt to end the war without turning to Krenim technology.

Heroes of the Air: G.S.M. Insall by S. Drigin
"The Christmas Crate" by Raoul Whitfield
Link - Posted by David on January 2, 2023 @ 6:00 am in
WHEN Flying, the new weekly paper of all things aviation, started up in England in 1938, amongst the articles and stories and photo features was an illustrative feature called "Heroes of the Air." It was a full page illustration by S. Drigin of the events surrounding how the pictured Ace got their Victoria Cross along with a brief explanatory note.
Russian born Serge Drigin became a successful illustrator in the UK in the 1920s with his work regularly appearing in such British magazines as The Detective Magazine, Modern Boy and Chums. He is probably best known for his startling covers for Scoops, Air Stories, War Stories, Fantasy and others in the 30s.
From the 7 May 1938 issue of Flying:
LIEUT. G. S. M. INSALL WINNING THE V.C. IN FRANCE, NOVEMBER 7, 1915
LIEUTENANT Insall was flying a Vickers "Gun Bus" with A.M. T.H. Donald as his gunner on the occasion of the action which won him the V.C. He was on patrol when he saw and pursued an enemy machine. Insall gave his gunner several chances to fire and their adversary was brought down. Not content with this, Insall returned and dropped an incendiary bomb on the German aeroplane to ensure its destruction. Making for home, Insall was forced to land only five hundred yards behind the British lines, whereupon the German artillery opened fire, intent upon completely demolishing the "Gun Bus." The two flyers took refuge in a shell hole until nightfall, when they crept out to examine their machine. A new petrol tank was needed. They sent for one and fitted it. Other minor repairs were carried out and a digging party was requisitioned from the trenches to level out a runway for a take-off. As dawn came the Vickers rumbled off and winged its way into the air, before the enemy artillery had time to fire a shot. The award of the Victoria Cross was later conferred on Insall for "most conspicuous bravery, skill and determination."

Alexander Vinnik, a Russian citizen currently in a Greek prison, has been indicted for his role in a cryptocurrency exchange that helped launder billions of dollars for the Russians.
U.S. Special Counsel Robert Mueller is trying to uncover how the Russians were able to hide their money trail using bitcoin.
The $9 billion in currency transfers have been linked a Russian military intelligence hacking operation called Fancy Bear that was not required to undergo any KYC/AML policies on Vinnik's BTC-e exchange.
Crypto data analytics firm Elliptic was able to use the details provided in the indictment to scrub the blockchain and identify patterns of activity by the Russian agents.
Vinnik has claimed to have no knowledge of any illicit money laundering and is in the process of being extradited from Greece.

The last 2 are available on Youtube, but it's easier to provide the links above, than to hunt down the specific youtube links (I'm in a hurry). Also, you're welcome to check those links out, if you really want to, but most of them are download links. It's easier for me to download it, then delete it, than it is for me to stream it... So I usually opt for the download links if they're available.
If you have something to say about the above links, you're welcome to do so. Even so, I'll probably download them anyway to form my own opinion. Of course, you're also welcome to completely ignore this post, and pretend it doesn't exist. As I said, this is here, since it's easier to post the links here, than it is to send them to my PC...
Anyway, Mouser X over and out.

SEARCHING FOR MR. RUGOFF -- An Ode to the Unsung Titan of Independent Cinema
Donald Rugoff may not be a household name, but the documentary Searching for Mr. Rugoff makes a compelling case for knowing that name. It is the directorial debut of indie film veteran Ira Deutchman, and it had its premiere at the 2019 DOC NYC, America's biggest documentary film festival. While the movie doesn't always capture the same energy and entertainment that Rugoff allegedly possessed, it is still an enjoyable look into the career and impact of a man who made a splash in the film industry.
Rugoff was the mad genius who was behind Cinema 5, a theater chain and film distributor. His craziness and unorthodox marketing helped usher art-house films into the mainstream. He was described as difficult and impossible, and this documentary uses testimony from former employees and contemporaries to paint a picture of an influential man who has been consigned to obscurity. This is an interesting subject, and there is a lot of rich cinematic history in this time period that helps make the story more dynamic.
Deutchman delivers a noble first film, and this is mostly because it is obvious that he has a profound respect and admiration for Rugoff. This is evident in the way the film is executed and his onscreen journey to learn more about this enigmatic man. This is the type of film that lives or dies by its director's passion for the subject. In this regard, the film succeeds in honoring his legacy as well as capturing an image of the film industry in this time period.
As mentioned before, the film features a myriad of interviews from former employees and colleagues. They do a mostly sufficient job of creating a portrait of Rugoff. The excess of interviews can bring down the film and its pacing, but it's clear there isn't a lot of other material to capture his character. Most of the interviewees bring something to the table to elevate the film, but there are a handful that do feel inconsequential.
The film's strongest aspect is how it incorporates film history into the story of Rugoff. Deutchman's admiration for independent cinema is most apparent in these moments, and these sections of the movie are very entertaining and informative. Unfortunately, there are other sections of the movie that interrupt the momentum and make the pacing feel sluggish. It's an enjoyable movie, but it doesn't quite live up to Rugoff's legacy and impact on modern independent cinema.
Searching for Mr. Rugoff is an enjoyable documentary that film buffs will most definitely enjoy. Despite some questionable pacing, this is a movie that is entertaining and is a great debut from Deutchman as a director.
Searching for Mr. Rugoff is in theaters August 13.
