I am not a big birthday celebrator. Sometimes it's still nice to take the opportunity to get away from it all and have the excuse of a birthday to justify it. A few weeks later, here I am getting around to posting the pictures. It only took a day or two to edit them, but this part always seems to take me a while.
The ongoing theme for these birthday get aways has turned out to be.. not what I thought I signed up for. This time around I embraced it 100%.

Procris o Prócride (griego antiguo Πρόκρις), en la mitología griega, era hija de Erecteo, rey de Atenas y su esposa, Praxitea. Se casó con Céfalo, el hijo de Deyoneo. Procris tenía por lo menos tres hermanas, Creúsa, Ctonia  y Oritía.

La versión más antigua de la historia de Procris proviene de Ferécides de Leros. En esta se cuenta que Céfalo decidió permanecer fuera del hogar durante ocho años, porque quería poner a prueba la fidelidad de Procris. Al volver, la sedujo estando disfrazado y así comprobó su infidelidad. Aunque luego se reconciliaron, Procris sospechaba que Céfalo tenía una amante, ya que se ausentaba con frecuencia para ir a cazar. Un criado le dijo que Céfalo llamaba constantemente a Néfele (la nube) para que fuera con él. Procris decidió seguirlo a escondidas la siguiente vez que él fuera a cazar; después de esperar durante algún tiempo, al oír a su marido decir el nombre de Néfele, salió del matorral donde se ocultaba. Al hacer esto asustó a Céfalo quien lanzó una jabalina pensando que era un animal que quería atacarlo, quitándole la vida en el acto.

Hay otra versión en el libro tercero de El Arte de Amar de Ovidio, donde alerta a las amantes de no ofuscarse o creer demasiado en supuestas infidelidades de boca de terceros, para no perecer de una manera tan absurda como Procris:

Ovidio también cuenta cómo la diosa del amanecer, Eos, (Aurora para los romanos), raptó a Céfalo mientras estaba cazando, pero aunque los dos llegaron a tener una relación y procrear tres niños, Céfalo no podía olvidar a su amada Procris. Eos, molesta, devolvió a Céfalo con su esposa, pero le dijo que podía demostrar que Procris iba a ser seducida por un extraño. Céfalo entró en casa de Procris con un disfraz, con la intención de seducirla. Ella aceptó, por lo que quedó comprobado lo dicho por Eos.

Apolodoro da una caracterización completamente diferente de Procris. Afirma que Procris fue sobornada con una corona de oro para dormir con Pteleón, pero fue descubierta en su cama por su marido. Después, ella huyó de su esposo con Minos, al cual ayudó a curarse de su enfermedad genital, por lo cual se le otorgó un perro al cual no se le escapaba ninguna presa y, además, una jabalina infalible. Apolodoro escribe que ella le dio el perro a su marido y, así, se reconciliaron.

Higino dice que el perro y la jabalina fueron regalos de la diosa Artemisa (no de Minos) y Antonino Liberal escribe que ella se disfrazó como un joven para seducirlo y que Céfalo cayó en la trampa. Al haber caído los dos en el mismo ardid, terminaron reconciliándose.

Mientras que Apolodoro dice que su muerte fue producto de un accidente de caza, Higino indica que ella sospechaba que él tenía una amante y este la mató, como en el relato de Ovidio. Al estar ella muriendo en los brazos de su marido llega a decirle "Como prometiste en tus votos matrimoniales, no te cases con Aurora". Céfalo, tras esto, huyó al exilio.

La historia de la caza de la zorra teumesia, la cual no podía ser atrapada, a la que Zeus convirtió en piedra, junto con Lélape, el perro de Procris, cuando este la atrapó, y también la historia de la muerte de Procris, fueron contadas en una de las primeras epopeyas griegas perdidas del Ciclo épico, puesto que probablemente era narrada en Epígonos. Sófocles escribió una tragedia llamada Procris, que se perdió.

Media refers to the technological integration of sound, data and voice networks in order to form new communication networks. Telecommunication is the exchange of information between different people in different geographical location; it uses communication technology and channels to transmit information through electric signals. Globalisation is the shrinking of the world political boundaries to accelerate the rate of flow of money, goods people and culture across the world. Media and telecommunication are vital basis for human existence. Through the help of media and telecommunication, people are more connected than ever and this has increased the social, political, economic, and environmental understanding among the countries across the globe. Thus, the impact of media and telecommunication on globalisation cannot be underestimated. This paper focuses on the role of media and telecommunication in the verge globalisation in order to show that the two have come a long way to enhance growth and development of emerging markets and practices along with other globalisation aspects.
Telecommunication has created a new kind of interaction across the global network. The network has increasingly expanded the interdependency and connections between the individuals. This has important implications particularly on students regarding how they share, consume, and produce information. Telecommunication has created a favourable platform where students are able to share knowledge, and interact with other students. Lecturers and tutors have a better platform where they can interact with students and conduct their teaching. Students also acquire knowledge through telecommunication. For instance, it is through telecommunication that various knowledge platform have been availed to people, such platforms include Google, Google scholar, yahoo questions and answers among others. People in different continents can share information and thus, telecommunication has globalized learning by providing education platforms where can interact to share knowledge. Eventually, it is realistic to argue that media and telecommunication is the mother of globalisation.

Media and telecommunication has increased understanding among the global nations. The understanding is economic, political, and social. This is enhanced through the expansion of internationalism, which provides more awareness about the differences, and similarities of the political and cultural systems of the global nations. The understanding brings across peaceful coexistence between the world nations thus promoting trade, cultural and political interaction. Through media, people in different parts of the global are able to learn and understand the rights, limitations, rulers and regulations of different citizens of different countries. This enhances understanding and respect of people's rights. Thus, it eliminates the areas of conflicts that may arise as people interact economically, socially and politically.
Worldwide scholars argue that the current expansion of goods, technology, and capital is attributed to the interaction of the global countries through political social and economic platforms. Through media, people are in an upper hand to learn what other people in different part of the world are doing and thus they are able to improve their lifestyle. It is evident that people's lifestyle in particular area or country in the world is shaped by the global event that are taking place. Thus, mass media is a channel through which people are learning new lifestyle resulting to civilization and modernization.
International news flow and news agencies forms part of mass media, it has played a big role in globalisation. The two are termed as globalisation thesis, which are closely tied to the western modernization and have endeavoured in the expansion of communication media since 19th century. The media is assigned a vital role of spreading the global agenda for instance the decision made by the United Nations and the international criminal courts. This is a very important role since such bodies are unify and most country in the world are members to these unifying organizations. The media also airs tragedy cases that happens across the globe for instance, floods, draughts, aircrafts accidents, sinking of mega ships just to mention a few. This is vital since it calls global attention by informing people what is happing. The media also creates a platform where the global population can offer support to victims of such tragedy for example, the general population provides technical and material support to such victims. Therefore, media and globalisation are inseparable since the globe depends on media for information and news. The media has many ways of passing informing across the world for example, newspapers, news, and journals. This unites the world and makes a village where people care and help each other at times of difficulties.
Telecommunication and mass media has led into cultural globalisation. For instance, in the 1990s some countries experiences a shift from the neo-Marxist cultural imperialism to a multi-directional flows. For example, the United States has managed to immigrants and some states that joined to adopt the set American culture. In Europe, people are taking initiative to learn Chinese language; the Chinese also introduced European languages into their learning institutions. More surprisingly, Swahili a language from eastern African has been adopted in Europe and Asia. For example, Swahili is being learned in Italy and in China. That is a clear depiction that in the verge of globalisation, language sharing and learning is a major characteristic that has been made possible through telecommunication.
Apart from language, dressing as part of culture has been globalized. African, Asians, American, and Europeans have greatly borrowed from each other in terms of clothing. For instance, Africans have adopted Chinese mode of clothing making clothes that have Chinese collar. Europeans and Americans have also adopted the African mode of dressing for example; Chinese have adopted the Shaka Nzuru mode of dressing. The Nigerian, Ghanaian and the Maasai jewellery are other important examples. This is enabled by the media, which airs conduct programs that ventures into different culture mode of dressing. Therefore, through media cultural integration has been achieved.
Telecommunication has helped to reduce the distance and cost of communication, this is through the implementation of new technologies that have permitted cost reduction in communications. Such cost reduction technologies include internet, TV satellite, and computerized technology. The new technology has significantly reduced the cost of communication thus, creating links between countries and continents. The communication has additionally reduced the cost of communication since one does not necessarily have to travel. Thus, the mushrooming of new communication technology has created a global village whereby people interconnected by media and telecommunication. Telecommunication and media are the throbbing heart of globalisation.
The impact of the telecommunication on globalisation is immense; this is supported by the fact that countries in the third world just like those in the second and first world have adopted digital lifestyle. This has revolutionized exchange of international information since it has the ability to transfer data across the borders. In the 21st century, the word has marked an expansion of internet. Currently, there are more than two billion internet users across the globe. This is also reflected in the increase in search engines such as Mozilla Firefox, chrome among others. This has marked an expansion in globalisation because internet is one of the leading global medium. However, the global medium portrays some inequalities since the first world countries have a large number of internet users compared to the second world and third world countries. It is promising that in the near future world will be more globalized than it is today due to the increasing number of mobile, affluent and highly educated people who are more conversant with the internet. Therefore, telecommunication has been the driving force of globalisation.
Mass media has imparted on globalisation by enhancing and promoting economic integration among the global countries. Economic growth heavily relies on media for promotion, advertisements, reminding customers about the product and introducing a new product in the market. Multinational companies such as the Coca-cola Company, eBay among other use media to get their products in the global markets. Therefore, mass media is vital platform through which global economic integration takes place. Countries develop economic understanding through mass media and telecommunication. With the development of Marconi wireless Telegraph company economic integration has marked great advancement. It is worth noting that the economic integration break through was achieved through the internet and telecommunication. This was through the online shopping websites and wireless money transfer. Thus, world is economically integrated through mass media and telecommunication.
Telecommunication access is vital to the development of all aspects of a nation's economy may it be education, banking, government, agriculture, and manufacturing. This is well reflected on how the countries interaction through globalisation. Research from word bank states that for every one US dollar invested in telecommunication, it generates six US dollar as economic return. Many people have invested in telecommunication meaning that a large number of people across the world are using telecommunicating for their daily undertakings. Across the world, telecommunication is experiencing tremendous growth. This implies that telecommunication networks have made it possible for most developing countries to contribute and participate in the world's economy. Some of the ways that telecommunications has imparted in the world's economy could not be achieved if it were not for telecommunication technology advancements.
For personal advancement and economic success, internet and communication tools such as telephones are vital. Internet advent has been described as a significant tool for society and for the advance of personal computer. Internet serves a variety of functions. Such functions include electronic market place, virtual community, entertained centre, information source among others. All these internet provisions are shared across the globe since internet is the world meeting point. Mass media and telecommunication have globalized the world since it is possible for the global population to get entertained through the YouTube. Additionally, through the internet people can create business and facilitate delivery of vital primary services such as education and health. It is through communication and media that such elements have emerged and grown around the world. They have played a huge role in enhancing globalisation.
In conclusion, from the above discussion it is evident that mass media are paramount to the world's globalisation. Globalisation has been characterized by emerging markets and practices where the universe is eventually becoming a small global village. Mass media and telecommunication provides a platform where people across the globe are able to interact socially, economically, and politically. This interaction comes along with advantages and drawbacks but the advantages surpass the drawbacks. For the peaceful coexistence of the world, nation's globalisation is a vital necessity that cannot be left out. This is because it brings across clearer understanding of world nation thus promoting political social and economic development. Thus, mass media and telecommunication has played an immense role in the world globalisation.

Raise your vibration and watch as the universe changes around you. Life reflects our vibration back to us so we can keep evolving if we choose to. All Abraham material explains this beautifully and simply. Thanks Abraham.
I really enjoyed this as it seems to have some of the earlier material from Abraham, which is fascinating and at the same time you can see how they have evolved, which is of course natural as we all should continue to expand as we live! Thanks Abraham, we love you.
If you know Abraham Hicks, you know this is excellent before you get it. I enjoyed it and have probably listened five times over by now.

Carbon Paper also known as carbonic paper is a paper which is coated with a layer of dry ink on one side and bounded with wax. The paper is used to make more than one copies simultaneously same time when original document is created using a ballpoint pen. During the manufacturing of carbon paper the wax coating converted into polymer based coating. The process involves changing of hot wax to a solvent applied coating which converts the paper into a plastic film or polyester paper instead of just a paper. These papers are used widely for the office work or paper work, by the students for making multiple copies of one document, etc. With an extensive usage of carbon papers in different production verticals, it becomes mandatory for the manufacturers to test the quality of the carbon paper by measuring various characteristics of carbon papers such as tearing resistance strength, thickness of paper, ink color quality, and many more.
The quality and strength of these papers can be testing using high-quality of testing machines. Presto Stantest, a leading manufacturer, supplier and exporter of carbon paper testing instruments offers high-quality carbon paper testing instruments. The instruments are designed as per the standards that are provided by various standardization authorities such as ASTM, ISO, BIS, etc. For more information on carbon paper testing instruments, contact our team of experts.


Dr. Cherevaty also works with women and their partners to address concerns of infertility and provides pre-conception care to optimize the chances for conception and of having a healthy pregnancy, delivery and postpartum recovery. For many couples who are having difficulty conceiving, it can be important to take a few months to optimize all aspects of health through dietary assessment and modifications, detoxification and stress reduction.
In addition, naturopathic approaches including herbal medicine and acupuncture can help to normalize hormonal imbalances, improve fertility, reduce the negative effects of stress on the body, and are highly complementary to conventional infertility treatments from hormonal therapy to in vitro fertilization (IVF) in intra-uterine insemination (IUI), increasing the success rates of these conventional procedures.
Dr. Cherevaty attends births as a naturopathic doula in Guelph and surrounding communities. Naturopathic Doula Care includes two prenatal visits, on-call continuous labor support and birth attendance, and postpartum care. Women who are under the care of midwives or an obstetrician-gynecologist can benefit from the presence and support of a Doula, particularly with the additional benefits of naturopathic treatment if desired. Working with a Doula has been shown to decrease duration of labour, improve birth outcomes and increase a woman's satisfaction with her birth experience. Dr. Cherevaty's Doula services are covered by insurance plans for naturopathic visits.
Dr. Cherevaty ND is a member of the Association of Perinatal Naturopathic Doctors (APND) and the Pediatric Association of Naturopathic Physicians (PedANP).
For more information about Naturopathic Perinatal Care, or to have Dr. Cherevaty attend your birth as a Doula, please contact us.

Q: ClickOnce application deployment and .NET COM visible dll registration I have a clickonce application. I need to register COM visible dll for that application. I used registration in the code of that application that checks if this was already registered and registers it by RegistrationServices class method RegisterAssembly(). It works fine if it is was launched by administrator. But I can't require administrator rights to deploy clickonce application. The second way I tried to register is prerequisite for my clickonce that will require administrator and will register my dll. I had created product manifest for my prerequisite application, but I got an error during the clickonce deployment

"Setup has detected that the file '...' has either changed since it was initially published or may be corrupt."

I figured out that this is the problem of .NET 4.5 and I should sign my prerequisite. I signed it and generated manifest by Bootstrapper again. After that I got the following error during the deployment:

"File not trusted Error: Setup has detected that the publisher of file  cannot be verified"

I had to install the certificate on the target machine first before I could successfully deploy my clickonce. But it won't be possible to install certificate before installing clickonce on all target machines. Does anybody have any ideas how to resolve this issue? Thanks in advance.

A: I talked to the ClickOnce guy at Microsoft about your question. Are you using VS2010 or VS2012? He says the error you're seeing occurs sometimes when using VS2010.
If you use VS2010 and .NET 4.5 is installed on that machine, VS uses the build tasks from .NET 4.5, and that uses a SHA256 hash on the custom bootstrapper package to create that setup package. But then setup.exe will download the bootstrapper and try to do a SHAH1 comparison, which doesn't match the SHAH2 one.
The workaround is if you build and deploy it with VS2012 update 2, it should work.
It should also work if you sign it with a proper CA cert. In that case, they don't do the hash verification, they just verify it with the certificate.
If you want to continue using VS2010, you can pick up the setup.bin from VS2012 update 2, place it In the vs2010 folder, and then it will work.  It's in the windows SDK folder.


An Egyptian delegation is set to head the weekly Great March of Return protests in Gaza on Friday in order to monitor the implementation of the new Egypt-brokered agreement to de-escalate conflict near the Gaza-Israel border, sources close to the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine told Mada Masr on Thursday.
As the marches move into their 32nd week, the Egyptian delegation — consisting of General Intelligence Service (GIS) officers Ahmed Abdel Khaleq and Hamam Abu Zeid — will visit Gaza for the fifth time in two weeks to oversee Hamas' pledge to quell the protests. The delegation will be stationed at tents used in the popular protests that call for Palestinian's right of return in the face of continued Israeli occupation of Palestinian land.
Earlier on Thursday, several Palestinian factions met and agreed to downscale protests, with Hamas and Islamic Jihad releasing a joint statement reiterating the decision to contain conflict on the border.
Following escalating hostilities that threatened to push the parties to the brink of war, and in return for Egypt's pledge to guarantee humanitarian relief, Hamas agreed on October 19 to contain violence in Gaza by preventing protesters from approaching the Israeli side of the fence encircling the strip or releasing incendiary balloons into the air. In exchange, Israel stated it would minimize the use of firepower and allow Qatari aid to cross into Gaza under UN supervision.
While a few violent outbreaks have taken place since Hamas' agreement to de-escalate, including the killing of three children in an Israeli airstrike, and that of Mohammed Abu Obada, 27, killed by Israeli fire, as well as dozens of injuries in the weekly Monday protest north of Gaza, Hamas and Israel have largely maintained their terms of the agreement.
However, sources close to Hamas previously told Mada Masr that the group has been under mounting fire from Palestinian protesters demonstrating against the recent deaths of Palestinians and continued Israeli occupation. In order for Hamas to defend its side of the agreement, Palestinian factions told the Egyptian delegation that Qatari funds would need to flow more quickly into a beleaguered Gaza, the sources added at the time.
Israel has agreed to allow Qatari money into the strip on the proviso that it is only used for "its stated purpose," namely to pay salaries of Hamas-contracted administrative employees, Haaretz reported on Wednesday.
Sources told Mada Masr earlier on Wednesday that Israel had expressed fears that the Qatari money intended to pay administrative employee salaries will be directed toward Hamas' military operation, a concern that the Egyptian delegation communicated to Palestinian factions in a meeting on Tuesday. There are approximately 450-600 Hamas administrative employees also working for the Qassam Brigades, its military wing, all of whom Israel has refused to pay, the source added.
At the beginning of October, GIS officials met with Hamas officials in Cairo to negotiate a simplified version of the ceasefire with Israel that, in August, seemed to be a done deal but sputtered out along with the rest of the negotiations. While the earlier version sought to end violence between Gaza and Israel by reopening border crossings, expanding the Mediterranean fishing zone and rebuilding Gaza's infrastructure, the new deal centered on the entrance of humanitarian aid into the strip funded chiefly by Qatar and under UN supervision, in addition to a potential prisoner swap.
Thursday's de-escalation agreement, along with Egypt's initiative to ensure that its terms are heeded through monitoring of the protest camps, also come against the backdrop of weeks of terse negotiations for Palestinian reconciliation between Palestinian factions and Cairo, leading to an apparent breakthrough last week with the Palestinian Authority (PA) nearing a decision to partially lift sanctions on Hamas by overturning a reduction in Hamas-employed public sector workers' salaries in the Gaza Strip.
The latest framework for reconciliation among Palestinian factions comes in the form of an Egypt-sponsored proposal that was finalized and sent to the PA for review, following talks between Gaza factions and Egyptian officials at the beginning of October, in which the slimmed-down truce agreement was hammered out.
Under the terms of the new deal, the PA would take full control over Gaza's ministries and administrative departments for the next three months, a source close to the PA told Mada Masr, with Qatar assuming responsibility for funding 50 percent of the salaries of Gaza's Hamas-employed administrative employees.

Barbican Art Gallery, London Presents Toyin Ojih Odutola's 'A Countervailing Theory'
Exhibitions, News
Currently showing at the Barbican Art Gallery in London, is Toyin Ojih Odutola's solo exhibition titled A Countervailing Theory, the artist's first exhibition in the UK. The work explores an imagined ancient myth Ojih Odutola conceived and entails a site-specific installation for The Curve gallery, unfurling across the 90-metre long space.
Toyin Ojih Odutola 'Introductions: Early Embodiment' from A Countervailing Theory, 2019, via barbican.org.uk
Installed in response to Ojih Odutola's work is an immersive soundscape by renowned conceptual sound artist Peter Adjaye and an accompanying publication with a new text by acclaimed writer Zadie Smith and an interview with the artist.
Executed in pastel, charcoal and chalk, the installation features a series of 40 drawings, each work acting as an individual episode within an overarching narrative. Set within a surreal landscape inspired by the rock formations of Plateau State in central Nigeria, the artist depicts in the works, a fictional tale of a prehistoric civilisation dominated by female rulers, served by male labourers. Drawing on an eclectic range of sources, from ancient history to popular culture, Ojih Odutola investigates the power dynamics at play within this community.
Working exclusively with drawing materials, Ojih Odutola's works often take the form of monumental portraits, which retain a remarkable intimacy despite their scale. Using drawing as a process of storytelling, she weaves speculative tales, which question familiar histories and pose alternative realities. Approaching her practice as an investigation, she intensely engages with the process of mark-making to explore its potential to create new meaning. Ojih Odutola recognises that the pen is 'a writing tool first'; she works akin to an author, often spending months crafting extensive narratives that play out through a series of works to suggest a structure of episodes or chapters.
Ojih Odutola's previous work has addressed the malleable nature of identity and the role of place in shaping this concept throughout history, in series including 'Tell Me A Story, I Don't Care If It's True' (2020), 'Scenes of Exchange' (2018) and 'The Treatment' (2015-17). Her works have shown persistent attention to the texture of skin, achieving extraordinary luminous effects through her distinctive techniques of building and blending her drawing materials. The topography of the flesh, as well as that of landscape and domestic interiors in recent series, conveys the nuanced histories of her subjects. Ojih Odutola's works play with the grand tradition of portrait painting by elevating the medium of drawing. Investigating images through the lens of aesthetic, conceptual and emotional principles, her works create an intimate viewing experience.
'A Countervailing Theory' will be on view at the Barbican until January 24, 2021.

My Review: West Side Story was always one of my absolute favorite movies of all time. I was a bit skeptical about the remake but have to say that I loved it just as much as the original.

Ah, summer vacation. Time to relax and catch up on much-needed rest. But now that you're a mom, family trips are all about keeping the kiddos busy and finding places that fit your toddler's self-imposed bread-and-jelly diet. But you can still totally get that R & R you've been looking for, while entertaining the kids! It just may take some technical help. Whether you're looking for local eats, need some kid-friendly entertainment in a pinch, or want to completely manage your travel itinerary (all in one place), check out the top apps for making the most of your family vacation.
1. GateGuru: Your flight was delayed — in a major way. Or maybe your layover has some sort of adjustment. These are things you need to know right away, especially if you're traveling with young children. This app gives you real-time updates based on your itinerary. It also lets you reserve a rental car at a discount, though right now the app only works with Avis. Just tap and rent! Oh, and your little one's need for a pre-flight vanilla-flavored steamed milk can be met with ease. Okay, so the app itself won't actually get you the drink, but it will give you a list of the eateries, shops, and services at the airport.
2. USA Rest Stops: Driving on the open road with your kiddos is a sure-fire way to up the number of potty and snack breaks needed by a hundred. You're traveling on the highway, hours away from your destination, when your preschooler declares that they need to go — now! This app finds rest stops by state or interstate, lets you see how far away the next stop is, gives you rest-stop hours, sends notifications when the next stop is in range, and provides parking info.
3. Plates Free Family Travel Game: This Android app takes the traditional license plate game up a notch. As you road trip it, have the kids search for plates of cars passing by. Look for different states and check them off the app's list. If you're an Apple family, Find the License Plate is a free iOS option.
4. Yuggler: You need kids' activities, and that's what this iOS app is all about. Get playtime and exploration ideas in the area you're visiting based on opinions, suggestions, and photos from other parents. You can filter the ideas based on your child's age, the season, the cost, and other important-to-families criteria. Think of this as a community-sourcing site for all kinds of family fun.
6. Waze: Getting around a completely new town with kids in tow is never easy. Waze gives you some help, highlighting the best routes based on real-time traffic situations. That means you can seriously cut down on the "Are we there yet?" factor. You can also get hazard, closure, and other alerts reported by other community users. On top of that (and the GPS features), you can also find the cheapest, closest gas stations.
7. XE Currency: Maybe your summertime travels are taking you out of the country. Between the baby, your toddler, and the great gobs of gear you now have to tote around, you don't exactly have time (or the hands) to Google current exchange rates. But with a click of an app you can get them in real time. The XE Currency app is also ideal for your pre-trip planning.

ORLANDO, Fla. – Orlando Magic players and staff members woke up early Thursday to host a Thanksgiving breakfast for members of Central Florida's homeless community.
The Magic teamed up with the Coalition for the Homeless, the largest provider of homeless services in Central Florida, to put on the annual event for the 28th year, one that's been especially difficult for so many due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
The breakfast is made possible by the generosity of Magic Head Coach Steve Clifford, who also volunteered his time to serve meals to those in need Thursday morning.
[TRENDING: Disney announces thousands more layoffs | Florida Rep says Trump should pardon himself | No new COVID-19 numbers on Thanksgiving]
Clifford said he believes the Magic's commitment to serving their community is part of what makes them such a special organization, and he's proud to be a part of it now more than ever.
"I think I'm like most people: I love Thanksgiving, Christmas and especially this year, it's so trying for everybody with the pandemic and the limitations on how all of us have to live but to be involved with the Magic who have always been so active in the community, it means a great deal to all of us," Clifford said.
Retired NBA player and Magic community ambassador Bo Outlaw and his family were also a part of the event Thursday morning. He said there's so much to be thankful for during this difficult year.
"With the pandemic, this is truly a day of thanks," Outlaw said. "Thanksgiving is the appropriate day for today."
Outlaw said being a part of the event reminded him that the day is all about giving, and he said he has no problem giving his time to the community that has given his organization so much.
"This is where I live. They support us so we're going to try to support them as much as we can. And that's what it's about – helping each other out. Sometimes I'm going to need help, sometimes you're going to need help ... It makes us a better community. That's what it's about, helping one another. It's not about me, it's about we," Outlaw said.
John Beard, who said he's had a very trying year, said he was grateful to have received a meal on Thanksgiving Day and thanked the Magic for their generosity.
"They have blessed us every year and they just keep on bringing gifts and God bless y'all," he said. "Y'all really bless the homeless out here, thank y'all."
Because of the pandemic, some adjustments had to be made to the annual event, including offering meals to go instead of inviting everyone to eat in the homeless shelter's dining room.
Outlaw said volunteers were able to minimize contact while still making a big impact on the community.
Thanksgiving breakfast was prepared for more than 400 homeless men, women and children at the Coalition, according to a news release.

For the first time since the coronavirus pandemic first began hitting Florida hard, the state will go a day without releasing data showing the most recent COVID-19 infections and deaths.
Families and officials are pleading with others to avoid Thanksgiving gatherings with people outside their home.
From turkey to stuffing and all the traditional holiday sides, The Salvation Army is making sure families across Central Florida are getting a Thanksgiving meal this year.
Americans are marking the Thanksgiving holiday amid an unrelenting pandemic that has upended traditions at dinner tables all around the country.


Thousands of dockworkers have shut down ports up and down the coast to protest the Iraq War. I haven't seen it covered on the major media markets, but maybe it has been. It doesn't matter.

Telltale Games: A Microsoft Story?
Over the last few years, Telltale Games has stepped out of the shadow of Monkey Island, and into the modern era with hits like The Wolf Among Us, Game Of Thrones and The Walking Dead. These titles have been thought provoking, evocative and, at times, poignantly sad. There testament to the skill and apparent ease with which the writers at Telltale approach dense and dangerous source material. Source material that for the most part other companies wouldn't even approach for fear of enraging diehard fans. So it is with some trepidation and a little uncertainty that I've pondered the idea of a Telltale made, story driven Minecraft spinoff.
We announced this title and discussed it a little yesterday in this piece: Why is Microsoft Making Games for Sony Players. The announcement came over the holiday break through an 8-bit Minecraft-themed title by Mojang called Info Quest 2, where players answer questions and get given info about the new title in response. Apparently it won't be as gritty and bloody as previous Telltale titles, which is a bit of a shame. I have always wanted to know what the inside of a creeper looks like, apart from whispy smoke and regret.
So the biggest two questions are; is this what we want from Minecraft? And is this what we want next from Telltale?
Well, months ago we all held our breath awaiting the changes Microsoft would be making to the Minecraft world after purchasing the title in September. It seems like tying down at least some of the world is first on the agenda. A cynical part of my brain is whispering that Microsoft is trying to milk its new cash cow as quickly as possible, but the more reasonable angel on my shoulder tells me that if this was a cash grab, then Microsoft would've chosen a company with less pedigree than Telltale Games.
I have no doubt that Telltale can make something great out of this partnership, but whether working with a publisher like Microsoft will be to the indie studio's benefit, or whether the project will be pushed out too fast or be interfered with in some "evil publisher" kind of way is yet to be seen. But like a new iPad, another Marvel movie and Star Wars Episode VII, whether it is pure gold or solid garbage, it will sell. It will make money. So at least for Microsoft and hence for Minecraft, it should be a good move. But then again, so would Minecraft car insurance.
As for whether this is what we want next from Telltale, well I don't think that anybody saw A Game of Thrones coming from the studio, but anybody who has played that title knows it's spectacular. There are a lot of worlds that I would love to see Telltale approach: a gritty Star Wars bounty hunter title perhaps? Or the dangerous and twisted underbelly of Sin City, depicted in the stark art style of Frank Miller's graphic novels. But I don't work for Telltale, and unless someone over there reads our favourite little games mag Grab It, the studio probably won't hear my fantastic suggestions.
I admit I'm sceptical. I was sceptical when Microsoft bought Mojang and I have no doubt I will be sceptical until this game is on my tablet and my review is complete. It isn't what I expected next out of Telltale nor what I would have chosen. But it is up to Telltale to show us why this is a good move and why the most emergent narrative driven game ever can conform to a structured style.
When it comes down to it, this is the first big move that Microsoft has made with the Minecraft license and time will tell whether fans trust the tech giant with their voxel baby. Because as Notch stated in his final statement to the public when selling Minecraft, "it belongs to Microsoft now. In a much bigger sense, it's belonged to all of you for a long time, and that will never change."

Hi all, it's been 6 weeks since my formal diagnosis of invasive lobular stage 2. I had a sectional Mastectomy 3 weeks ago and am recovering well, back at work full time, must keep busy.
I am off to the oncologist Monday, my surgeon, whom is excellent, has suggested that I will most likely need radiation therapy followed by hormone therapy, has anyone else been told this then had the oncologist change the treatment to chemo?
Has anyone had experience at Canberra hospital oncology department?
And just one more question. I have had one visit from my BCN before surgery and one 5 minute phone call since, is this normal? I thought there would be more interaction!
In anticipation of your replies!
@Makday First of all I congratulate you on a diagnosis, an operation & back to work already after only finding out 6 weeks ago. I can only go by my experience 5yrs ago when I had a full mastectomy and the day before I went home my Oncologist came in & said I would need radiation but no chemo. When I went to see her post surgery a week later I said how pleased I was not having chemo & she reacted strangely, it turned out both my Oncologists were unable to be present at the meeting where my case was discussed & both disagreed with the verdict. So I ended up having chemo after all followed by radiation.
She visited me practically every day in hospital, If BCN is a breast cancer nurse I apologise as I didn't really have one but saw one prior to going into hospital & was given some gifts post surgery.
Thank you for the replies @DebbieMc and @millie.
Well done on your recovery from surgery & returning to work! @Makday Yes, it is good to be kept busy.
I had Stage 2 but got away with a Lumpectomy and immediate reconstruction, clear nodes. Followed by 4 weeks radiation & then AI/Hormone therapy. I was lucky & dodged the chemo train.
Re your BCN interaction ..... I had stuff all!! My surgeon's nurse was my main contact & she didn't get back to me very quickly at all, if at all, to be honest! I found most of my solutions here!!
@rose, @CathyMac, @Emim and @Cruiser are a few of our Canberra members - hopefully they'll be able to help your your Onc query.
Check out the Otis Foundation as well, for a 'break' after your active treatment has finished! I am going to the Snowy's at the end of April for 5 days!!
If you are into fishing at all - the Fly Fishing community in Canberra also does free weekends for learning how to Fly Fish!
Hi @arpie, my BCN was so good at her visit, I am hoping she is ok......my treatment, if rads will be in Canberra, 2 hrs from home, luckily my daughter lives there so I have somewhere to stay, and the company I work for have an office there also, just another bonus in my not so lucky diagnosis.....not looking forward to being away from home because had to do it for the better part of last year due to other issues with my daughter.
That is terrific that you are able to stay with your daughter for your treatment period @Makday - it saves you having to travel all that way 2hrs each way, every day! I live on the coast & went to Port Macquarie for my Rads, staying at the Rotary Lodge there for the 4 weeks, to save the travel as i am the family 'driver'.
It was wonderful - a Motel atmosphere with a lovely big shared kitchen & 'lounge/puzzle' area and run by absolute angels!!
Definitely look into the Otis and Fly Fishing opportunity - once you've learned, you can use it for Salt Water fishing as well .... I am better at it at Salt water than fresh water!
Then, when you come to the coast for a holiday - we can get together & give it a go!
Best wishes for the Oncology appointment. My surgeon had said I'm sure you won't need chemo but that's the Oncologist call. He was right! Hopefully your pathology reports gives the same result.
As to the Breast care nurse some have a large number of patients. Mine was through my surgeon and extremely helpful.
@makday I started with a wide excision as it was thought that the lobular cancer was small and had not spread. That would have meant rads then AI. The path report came back as much larger and 3 nodes involved. This meant that I needed a mastectomy and axillary dissection, and chemo was added to the treatment regimen. I didn't actually find out that I was Stage 2 until after active treatment. It's not really unusual for treatment plans to change after surgery, once the path report is back. Take care.
@Makday fingers crossed for you, but I think it is wise to acknowledge that recommendations for treatment may change. I've had two experiences where the surgeons opinion was very different from the oncologists.
If that does happen, there are tests available to help determine how useful chemo might be. Sometimes the percentages for a better ten year outcome can be tiny, as Millie pointed out, so those can be tough decisions to make. Hopefully you won't find yourself in that situation.
What a pity you aren't getting much value out of your breast care nurse. The quality of that service seems to vary widely, perhaps that's down to workloads or the personality of the staff. The two BCN here have been around for over a decade and they are absolutely fantastic, which has been a huge help over the years.
Hi @makday. Congratulations on having the surgery behind you. I had one appointment with the BCN before surgery then had a different one come check on me in recovery. Both were lovely and gave me their contact details. As I went overseas within 2 weeks of surgery I did contact them via email a couple of times and got very quick replies. I keep fingers crossed that you are able to avoid chemo. Take care of yourself.
@Makday I'm sorry you've had to join us here, but it's a fantastic place to be for advice and support.
I was diagnosed with high grade DCIS and invasive ductal carcinoma in November 2018.i had a right side Mastectomy at the John James hospital in Canberra and am having my treatment at the Canberra region cancer Centre at the Canberra Hospital. They have been fantastic! My treatment schedule is 16 doses of chemo. 4AC followed by 12 paciltaxel. Today I had my 3rd paciltaxel and all is going well. After my chemo treatments are finished I will have 5 weeks of radiation. Who was your surgeon? Let me know if you would like any further info re the Canberra Hospital. I'm more than happy to impart any knowledge that may help.
Hi @CathyMac, lovely to hear from you, my appointment went well yesterday, and yes, the staff are really great. My surgeon was Collins, he carried out the surgery in bega but works out of Canberra private also. I have been offered to participate in a trial, much reading to do and pending results of blood tests and appointment with medical oncologist. I won't need to have chemo, but will have 20 rounds of rads, feeling lucky with this treatment as I know many others, including yourself, have to go thru so much more. I am fairly familiar with Canberra hospital as I spent the better part of last year caring for my daughter who was in and out of care , just all new with being involved in the cancer centre. Talk soon, and I hope your treatment is all going well.
Hi Makday, I live in bawley point ( near you) and similar situation. I'm Stage2 invasive cancer with LVI . I've had part mast in late dec and finished 4 weeks intense Rad's in Canberra in march. I'm new to this network, so not sure, but if you want to chat, send me a private message.

Meet the candidates: Tim Pawlenty
A newcomer to the Republican presidential race for 2012 is Tim Pawlenty. Pawlenty, known as "TPaw," is the two-term governor of Minnesota and has been credited by the Wall St. Journal with offering the "most ambitious reform agenda so far."
Pawlenty is a native of Minnesota and is a graduate of the University of Minnesota. He originally planned to become a dentist, but changed his major to political science and then went on to earn a Juris Doctor from Minnesota's law school. After graduation, he worked as a labor lawyer and later become president of a software company.
He got his start in politics as an appointed member of the City Planning Commission in Eagen, Minn. A year later, in 1989, he was elected to the city council. In 1992, Pawlenty was elected to Minnesota's House of Representatives. He was re-elected four times and became majority leader in 1998.
In 2002, Pawlenty considered a run for Minnesota governor as well as a run for the U.S. Senate. Although Minnesota's GOP leaders preferred a different candidate, Pawlenty chose to run for governor when Vice President Cheney asked that he step aside to allow Norm Coleman to run for the senate seat. Pawlenty won a three way race in the general election by campaigning on a pledge not to raise taxes, a twenty-four hour waiting period for abortions, education reform, and passage of a concealed carry law for guns. Pawlenty won re-election in 2006, but elected not to run for a third term.
As governor, Pawlenty says he balanced Minnesota's budget without raising taxes. While he did cut spending, critics charge that his balanced budgets were also the result of accounting tricks such as borrowing from other accounts, increasing fees and accepting federal stimulus funds. For example, Fox News reports that Minnesota schools are owed more than $1.4 billion by the state's general fund. The Minnesota cigarette tax was increased by 75 cents under Pawlenty, although he calls this a fee rather than a tax. Other taxes were increased as well though without Pawlenty's approval. The Democratic legislature overrode his veto of a gas tax increase, voters increased the sales tax, and local government increased property taxes.
Though Pawlenty is no longer governor, Minnesota is facing a projected $5 billion shortfall, in part because spending cuts that Pawlenty enacted are beginning to expire. Pawlenty defended his record, telling Fox News, "It's based on a big increase in projected spending — 20-some percent increase — that I never would've allowed."
A controversial aspect of Pawlenty's tenure as governor involves Minnesota's sharia-compliant home loan program. As part of a program to expand home ownership, Minnesota's state housing agency had set up a program that would allow Muslims to avoid paying interest on home mortgages, which many believe to be prohibited by Islamic sharia law. Pawlenty has taken criticism for allowing the program, but according to a report by CBS News was not responsible for the program. According to a statement by his office, the program was set up by the housing office acting on its own and Pawlenty ordered its termination when he became aware of it.
Another controversy in Pawlenty's past involves his past support for carbon cap-and-trade. In 2008, he even went so far as to make a radio ad with Janet Napolitano, a Democrat who was then the governor of Arizona. Napolitano is now Secretary of Homeland Security. By 2009, Pawlenty was writing letters to Congress to oppose cap-and-trade legislation that was being considered. According to Minnesota Public Radio, Pawlenty still believes that manmade greenhouse gas emissions are responsible for global warming, but opposes cap-and-trade on economic grounds. He now says, "… all of us should be focused on reducing emissions and pollution, but we need to do that in a way that doesn't wreck the economy, doesn't hurt our farmers [and] doesn't hurt our manufacturers…." Pawlenty believes that nuclear power fits that description.
Most recently, Pawlenty earned publicity for coining the term "Obamneycare" to describe the similarities between Mitt Romney's Massachusetts health insurance law and Barack Obama's federal law. Pawlenty's phrase highlights the fact that Romney enacted a centralized health care reform featuring an individual mandate when he was governor of Massachusetts. In what is likely an undesired endorsement, President Obama praised Romney's Massachusetts law in a February 2011 speech.
Pawlenty's campaign manager, Nick Ayers, also worked on Georgia Governor Sonny Perdue's re-election campaign in 2006. While in Georgia, Ayers was arrested and charged with drunk driving in Valdosta. Last month, a Minnesota website posted the dash cam video of Ayers' arrest on the internet. Ayers is a Georgia native.
Pawlenty's campaign in Georgia will be headed by Eric Johnson, former president pro tempore of the Georgia Senate and candidate for Georgia governor. According to CBS Minnesota, Johnson called Pawlenty "the most conservative candidate in the race that can beat President Obama" and said that he "is right on the fiscal issues and right on the social issues."
At this point, Pawlenty is a long shot for the Republican nomination. A May 2011 Gallup poll shows him in sixth place with six percent of Republicans favoring him. Those numbers might increase following a recent speech unveiling his economic plan in which Pawlenty called for tax cuts and a simplification of the tax code along with a constitutional amendment that caps government spending at 18 percent of GDP. (Federal spending is currently at about 40 percent of GDP according to USgovernmentspending.com.) Pawlenty's plan is the polar opposite of the Obama economic plan and that might just be what voters are looking for in 2012.

Arguing Right To Counsel On Appeal When Not Preserved At Trial Reviewed by Stephen N. Preziosi on .
Issue : Can the issue of Right to Counsel be argued on appeal if it was not raised in the trial court.
Holding : where a defendant's statement to law enforcement authorities is obtained in violation of his right to counsel, the use of that statement against defendant at trial is an error that may be raised on appeal, even if the issue was not preserved.
However, Appellate review of such an unpreserved error is available only when the error is irrefutably established on the face of the record. In this case the Court of Appeals declined to review the issue because the record was inadequate.
Facts : defendant pleaded guilty to a sixteen count indictment including two counts of murder in the second degree. A Huntley hearing was held, but the McLean made no claim that he was deprived of his right to counsel.
McLean had spoken to Detectives in 2003 with his lawyer present on an unrelated robbery and supplied information on a murder in exchange for a more favorable sentence. Then again in 2006 he spoke to detectives and described his role in the murder. There was a dispute as to whether McLean's lawyer represented him on the murder charges or just the robbery charges.
The Court of Appeals relied heavily on the case of People v. Arthur , 22 N.Y.2d 325 (1968). In that case it was held that the failure to object on right to counsel grounds is not fatal since we are concerned with the deprivation of a fundamental constitutional right. A claimed deprivation of the State constitutional right to counsel may be raised on appeal, notwithstanding that the issue was not preserved by having been specifically raised in a suppression motion or at trial.
However, the Court of Appeals held that there is an important limitation to this rule. The rule authorizing review of unpreserved constitution right to counsel claims has been applied only when the constitutional violation was established on the face of the record. The lack of adequate record bars review on direct appeal not only where vital evidence is plainly absent, but wherever the record falls short of establishing conclusively the merit of the defendant's claim.
Where the record does not make clear, irrefutably, that a right to counsel violation has occurred, the claimed violation can be reviewed only on a post trial motion under CPL 440.10, not on direct appeal.

Canadian Medal of
Honor.com
Sunday evening's blogs
graves, memorials and medals
Enroute to dusting off Civil War Medal of Honor files at NARA, I had an unexpected visit to the Clara Barton and John Wilkes Booth stories as well as to the very moving Pentagon's memorial to the 9-11 victims!
A past blog noted that while in DC to do Medal of Honor research at the Archives and at Arlington, I travelled daily from the hotel I was staying at in Bethesda to downtown DC. From there it was just a handful of blocks away that I
treaded daily to the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) building.
On several of these trips I kept bumping into more fascinating US history. One of these was the Clara Barton
Museum. I walked past it several times before noticing it and then wandered in one morning. It was under construction but there was a lady at a front reception area, and while we both only had a few minutes she gave me a very quick run down on Clara and her activities of which I was somewhat familiar.
From about 1900 to 1997 the building in the centre above sat idle and was about to be demolished when a curious workman decided to explore the upper floors. On the third he discovered evidence... a find of a lifetime. The building third floor office was none other than that of famed Clara Barton, internationally known as the very woman who brought the Red Cross to the United States.
Clara's destiny began as a teen when she spent two years learning about medicine the hard way... while applying it to very sick siblings... who survived. Then came the start of the Civil War. When a regiment marched into town they were attacked and many were left horribly mangled. She took supplies from her home out to treat the men. It would become part of her calling throughout the war. By war's end she had expanded her volunteer work to helping to locate missing soldiers. After she took her idea to President Lincoln, and received his blessings... but no pay to begin with, she turned her offices on the third floor of this very building into what she called... The Office of Correspondence with Friends of the Missing Men of the United States Army.
From here she would marry up incoming info with that already gathered and broken down by state. Soon Clara would be visited by a fellow who had survived the horrors of Andersonville and escaped with a smuggled out list of about 13,000 soldiers who were buried at the that horrid camp. She and this soldier would get financing and take 42 headstone carvers back to Andersonville and using the list and locating the graves they would then mark them accordingly. She would later be credited with finding graves of over 22,000 of the 67,000 that remained missing at war's end. In some cases her office would even reunite the soldiers with their families. Illness caused her to shut down the office in the late 1860's and travel to Europe where she met others involved in the Red Cross and would ultimately start a Red Cross, the first... in North America... More on Clara will follow in a future blog.
What a story of Women's History Month in Canada !
On another day I decided to take another route to the archives and stumbled onto a very early morning line up as shown above. I wondered what it was till I read the sign...Ford Theatre. So I crossed the road and started to talk to some in the line and learned that this was the very spot were President Abraham Lincoln was shot on 4 May 1865. He died the next morning.
I asked about tickets and costs and was told to check it out inside. Entering, I soon learned that whilst the very spot were the President was shot, had been rebuilt and is indeed open to the public, it was currently being set up for some sort of a performance that night, and was, obviously now a working theatre yet again, after being shut down for a time in the 1860's after the shooting.
I decided to come back in a few days to take the tour but the government heard I was in town and decided to shut down and thus I never did get back to see the actual theatre itself. The centre image shows the theatre, the tall building in the centre, as it was in the 1860's and the third image shows it as it stands today.
On sill another day I was trying to follow my GPS and it was trying to give me wrong information. I was attempting to drive to the national Cemetery at Arlington. But the GPS decided it would take me along a road the travelled under a freeway through a rather unpleasant area and ended quite literal at a dead end. I had heard of the GPS doing this before but it was a first for me. Asking three different people I eventually found myself close... but not quite there. I ended up in a very large parking lot and fit to scream. But seeing several policemen a few hundred feet off, I decide to ask them how to get to the grave yard.
While getting directions I noticed their shoulder flashes. It said something about being pentagon police. I was right across the road from it, and it was such an incredible large building all I could see was one side and did not know that I was at the darn Pentagon... or at least across the road.
They responded to some off the cuff questions and then told me about the 911 memorial and off I went to see this incredible site.
But first... the pictures above.
I was clearly told that taking pictures of the building were not allowed. Those above are from the internet. The first shows the flight path that we are told was taken by American Airlines flight 77 at 9.37 am on September 11, 2001. The second shows the horrible disaster left after the explosion took place and the third shows a later image, during repair work. A careful study of the picture and many others on the net clearly show a BRIGHTER WHITE at the area later repaired.
One hundred and eighty four individuals lost their lives in this attack on the Pentagon on September 11th. They ranged in age from three years old to 71. One hundred and twenty five of these victims were men and women who worked at the pentagon. The remaining 59 were passengers of the airline.
Some 20 million dollars were spent on the creation of this memorial. To the left you see US service personnel unveiling the memorial and a special unveiling event opened only that day to the families of the victims. To the far right there is a woman, possible a family member who sits in deep grief probably at her loss, and sits at night when the memorials are illuminated. The entire memorial is open to the public at no charge, and remains open 24 hours a day 7 days a week all year round.
Each one of these memorials is actually arranged in a time line. There is a small ribbon of metal representing each year of birth that travels across the entire acre plus memorial. Each line travels along the very path of Flight 77. If you go to the head of the line you will see a date. This is the date of the year that the victims along that line were born in. Each individual memorial has a name on it of the victim and either faces towards the building or off in the other direction and looking into the sky. Those facing towards the building tell that the victim memorialized was working in the building that dreaded day. Those facing in the other direction, have you looking at the name plate of the victim and then up to the sky from which they drew their last breaths of life.
The very emotional memorial on the left with flowers is for the three year old child on the plane. Another was too moving to take a picture of. It had a little teddy bear on it. In the right image you can see memorials facing in both directions.
There are 85 trees clustered around the entire monument. They do not represent any one victim, but all. Each will grow to a height of 30 feet and will offer all below a cool shade.
The reverse of the memorial plaque at left, contains the names of the victims inscribed on its reverse, as shown in the center photo. At the right is a date marker showing that those along that date line were born just 21 years ago.
On Friday we will visit Arlington, if my GPS is willing!
