Considering bringing the kids to a show? Concerns about content? Check out our guidelines to help you decide.
We believe that sharing the theatre with youngsters can be a life-changing experience, but some shows are more family-friendly than others. Our guidelines below can give you a general idea of what might be appropriate, but you know your child best. If you have questions or want to talk further about any show's content, just call us at 800.294.1816.
Generally, if your child can pay attention to a full-length movie at the cinema, he or she will probably enjoy a theatrical event. Many shows suggest no children under the age of 4. All children must have a ticket, regardless of age.
All his life, Evan Hansen has felt invisible. But when a tragedy thrusts him into the center of a rapidly evolving controversy, he is given the opportunity of a lifetime: the chance to be somebody else. The show contains some strong language and deals with serious and sensitive issues including mental health, suicide, the influence of social media, and parent-child communication. Dear Evan Hansen is recommended for ages 12+.
Audiences and critics alike are rediscovering this beloved musical with breathtaking music, including one of the most treasured songs in musical theater—"Memory". Children will be transfixed by the human-size felines that interact with the audience throughout the show. Energetic choreography, imaginative costumes, the unique cat makeup, and an amazing set help create a visually and musically spectacular experience for all ages.
COME FROM AWAY is based on the true story of when the isolated community of Gander, Newfoundland played host to the world. What started as an average day in a small town turned in to an international sleep-over when 38 planes, carrying thousands of people from across the globe, were diverted to Gander's airstrip on September 11, 2001. This is an uplifting show, and while it does have heavy underlying circumstances related to the events of 9/11, it is a celebration of human kindness that will leave you feeling moved. Recommended for ages 10 and up.
JERSEY BOYS is a musical biography of the Four Seasons – the rise, the tough times and personal clashes, and the ultimate triumph of a group of friends whose music became symbolic of a generation. The show includes a healthy dose of adult language – not the language you hear in most Broadway shows, but the language of the Jersey streets. In an effort to be authentic, the show not only presents the Four Seasons songs as they sounded on the records, they present the guys themselves as they sounded on the streets, warts and all – language included – so you can understand who they are.
Cady Heron may have grown up on an African savanna, but nothing prepared her for the vicious ways of her strange new home: suburban Illinois. Soon, this naïve newbie falls prey to a trio of lionized frenemies led by the charming but ruthless Regina George. But when Cady devises a plan to end Regina's reign, she learns the hard way that you can't cross a Queen Bee without getting stung. Similar to the 2004 film of the same name, the show includes sexual references and implied underage drinking. MEAN GIRLS is recommended for ages 12 and older. For more information, please visit the show's website.
This classic musical comedy comes to the stage in an exquisite new staging. As fans of the musical well know, it's a family friendly show. Appropriate for ages 8 and up.
The incredible stage adaptation of the Academy Award-winning Disney film, THE LION KING is the story of a young lion cub prince Simba and follows his path as his father's life is taken from him and Simba flees to escape the unthinkable tragedy he feels responsible for. Simba's creepy journey into an elephant graveyard and the death of his father can be as unsettling to young viewers as they were in the original film, but if your youngsters can handle the movie, there's no reason not to see it live. THE LION KING is recommended for ages 6+. All patrons regardless of age, must have a ticket. For more information, visit the show's website.
Set against the backdrop of 19th-century France, LES MISÈRABLES tells an enthralling story of broken dreams and unrequited love, passion, sacrifice and redemption. The show is most appropriate for children in middle school and up. LES MIS includes many mature themes, some battle scenes that feature gun violence and death, and sexual references. At nearly three hours, the duration of the show may be challenging for young children. Recommended for ages 10 and up. For more information, visit the show's website.
Get ready for a hilarious and heartwarming musical with the most unforgettable songs from one of music's greatest storytellers, Jimmy Buffett. The musical pulls from the themes and stories in Buffett's famous songs, so expect plot points along those lines – with a bit of sexual innuendo and bawdy adult humor mixed in with your beach cocktail.
Recommended for 14 and up. For more information, visit the show's website.
Inspired by the beloved films, ANASTASIA transports us from the twilight of the Russian Empire to the euphoria of Paris in the 1920s, as a brave young woman sets out to discover the mystery of her past. With its opulent settings, dazzling costumes, and a soaring score, ANASTASIA is appropriate for most ages. Recommended for ages 7 and up. For more information, please visit the show's website.
In celebration of its 50th Anniversary, this new mesmerizing production pays tribute to the historic 1971 Billboard Album of the Year while creating a modern, theatrical world that is uniquely fresh and inspiring. JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR is set against the backdrop of an extraordinary series of events during the final weeks in the life of Jesus Christ as seen through the eyes of Judas. Not appropriate for kids too young to understand the events of Jesus's death. For more information, visit the show's website.
Composed by "South Park" creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone and Avenue Q's Robert Lopez, THE BOOK OF MORMON is an old-style musical with a modern sensibility. This blockbuster show features several big song-and-dance numbers accompanied by some old-fashioned Broadway belting. An equal opportunity offender, the show playfully pokes fun at religion, sexuality, poverty and race, while inspiring an after-the-show discussion of religion in general. We recommend checking out the cast recording to get an idea of the show's humor and language. THE BOOK OF MORMON contains explicit language. For more information, please visit the show's website.

All comments and suggestions welcome, nay, sought after. Check out the new look that is being trialled (and will be furhter tweaked) with the blogs. Could it be a candidate for the whole site...?
Thanks Eoghan... it's been a bit of work but hopefully this will be a fun addition to the site and makes use of the new CLUAS infrastructure you have put in place over the past year. It certainly makes the site a little more "21st Century", eh?
The 5th CLUAS blog (mine) is now live. It's called 'Promenade'.
The first blog entry is called 'Muse.ie: your Auntie's favourite site?'. Check it out now.
A week on from the launch of the CLUAS blogs, we are appearing as the #1 result on Yahoo for a search for "Indie Music blogs" (screen dump below). Although on google we are not yet in the top 10 for the same search.

Q: How can I filter node references to 'strictly own nodes' ? (Drupal 7) On my drupal 7 site, I have a content type (artwork) that presents my users with a CCK field where they can specify what project (another content type) the node is referenced to (node reference module). The problem is that I can't seem to find a way to filter the options to 'own nodes only', so all the projects of all the users show up it in the list, and any user can just push his nodes on the nodes of another. I can still filter these nodes out with views on the output of the project node, but it's not very clean on the add/node form.
I found a module that is called 'CCK reference filter' that sounds like it should handle this situation, but it's not ported to Drupal 7.
So far I've gone pretty far without having to touch template.php and using hooks, and I would be very relieved if I wouldn't have to, since I'm hardly a php wizard... But if someone has any suggestions! Everything is welcome
Have a good day!
Bruno
(this is my first post here by the way, please tell me if I'm in the wrong place or anything)

A: The way to achieve that in Drupal 6 was to use a Views to filter the node that you can reference.
The goal for References module in Drupal 7 is to strictly have the same functionality as the D6 module. But References is still in developpment and it seems that this has not been implemented for now.
This issue seems to be very similar to what to want : http://drupal.org/node/1034042

Home Health Scientists may have unlocked function of mysterious structure found on neurons
Scientists may have unlocked function of mysterious structure found on neurons
For 30 years, mysterious clusters of proteins found on the cell body of neurons in the hippocampus, a part of the brain, both intrigued and baffled James Trimmer.
Now, the distinguished professor of physiology and membrane biology at the UC Davis School of Medicine may finally have an answer. In a new study published in PNAS, Trimmer and his colleagues reveal these protein clusters are calcium signaling "hotspots" in the neuron that play a crucial role in activating gene transcription.
Transcription allows portions of the neuron's DNA to be "transcribed" into strands of RNA that are then used to create the proteins needed by the cell.
Structures found in many animals
Trimmer's lab studies the enigmatic clusters in mice, but they exist in invertebrates and all vertebrates — including humans. Trimmer estimates that there can be 50 to 100 of these large clusters on a single neuron.
He and his colleagues knew that the clusters are formed by a protein that passes potassium ions through membranes (a potassium channel). They also knew these clusters contain a particular type of calcium channel. Calcium channels allow calcium to enter cells, where it triggers a variety of physiological responses depending on the type of cell.
"The presence of these clusters in neurons is highly conserved," Trimmer said. Highly conserved features are relatively unchanged through evolutionary timescales, suggesting they have an important functional property in these very different types of animals.
The hippocampus, one region of the brain where the clusters are found on neurons, plays a major role in learning and memory. Researchers knew that disruption to these clusters — for example, from genetic mutations in the potassium channel — results in severe neurological disorders. But it was not clear why.
"We have known the function of other types of ion channel clusters, for example those at synapses, for a long time. However, there was no known role that these much larger structures on the cell body played in the physiology of the neuron," Trimmer said.
Experiment flooded calcium channels with "decoys"
The experiment that revealed the function of the neuronal clusters was designed by Nicholas C. Vierra, a postdoctoral researcher in Trimmer's lab and lead author for the study.
"We developed an approach that let us uncouple the calcium channel from the potassium channel clusters in neurons. A key finding was that this treatment blocked calcium-triggered gene expression. This suggests that the calcium channel-potassium channel partnership at these clusters is important for neuronal function," Vierra said.
For their experiment, the researchers essentially "tricked" the calcium channels at these clusters by flooding the neurons with decoy potassium channel fragments. When the calcium channels grabbed onto the decoys instead of the real potassium channels, they fell away from the clusters.
As a result, the process known as excitation-transcription coupling, which links changes in neuronal electrical activity to changes in gene expression, was inactivated.
"There are a lot of different calcium channels, but the particular type of calcium channel found at these clusters is necessary for converting changes in electrical activity to changes in gene expression," Trimmer said. "We found that if you interfere with the calcium-signaling proteins located at these unusual clusters, you basically eliminate excitation-transcription coupling, which is critical for learning, memory, and other forms of neuronal plasticity."
Trimmer and Vierra hope their findings will open new avenues of research.
"A lot of research has focused on calcium signaling in dendrites – the sites where neurons receive signals from other neurons. Calcium signaling in the cell body of neurons has received less attention," said Vierra. "Now we understand much more about the significance of signaling at these specific sites on the cell body of the neuron."
"We are only at the beginning of understanding the significance of this signaling, but these new results may provide information that could shape new research into its role in brain function, and perhaps eventually into the development of new classes of therapeutics," said Trimmer.

(2016 – present) Himee is a recent graduate and has an advanced diploma in Travel and Tourism, from Lingua International College in Windhoek. He has been with CCF since 2016 working first as an intern and now as a tourism guide, in the café, and in tourism administration. He loves working with people and meeting international tourists.


The country enjoys a sub-tropical climate, which ranges from 10 degrees in the winter to 50 degrees in the summer.
The UAE is a popular study destination, thanks to cosmopolitan cities, top-class universities and modern facilities. The fact that the majority of the population speaks English and many higher education programmes are taught in the language is another huge draw.
The UAE has extremely low levels of violent and property crime and is generally considered a safe place to live. However, to avoid falling foul of the law you'll need to respect the country's Islamic culture and local customs. For example, public displays of affection, fighting, public drunkenness and swearing could land you in big trouble. Contrary to popular stereotypes the rules around dress are more liberal in expat or tourist areas, where it's acceptable to express your individual style. However, when out socially it's wise to err on the side of modesty.
In your free time you can go on a desert safari or shopping in the spectacular Dubai Mall, experience a camel ride, visit attractions such as the Burj Khalifa or Palm Islands or take up sports including parachuting, mountaineering, dune bashing or scuba diving.
The UAE is dedicated to developing its education infrastructure, with a goal to becoming the world's top provider of graduate education in the future.
The UAE's higher education system takes influence from France, Canada, Germany, Russia, the UK and USA. The number of institutions is ever increasing but there are currently three state-funded universities and more than 50 private institutions. In fact, the UAE is home to some of the best universities in the Gulf region.
Higher Colleges of Technology (HCT) - the UAE's largest university.
UAE University (UAEU) - the country's flagship university offering many internationally accredited programmes.
Zayed University (ZU) - established in 1998 as a female-only institution but now open to males.
Government institutions are overseen by the Ministry of Higher Education & Scientific Research and only admit UAE nationals. Private universities and colleges are open to all students.
A growing number of international institutions also have universities or campuses in the UAE, including those from Australia, Canada, the UK and USA.
A further four UAE institutions appear in the QS University Rankings: Arab Region 2018.
For a list of accredited universities see Arabian Campus - Universities.
The academic year runs from September to June with a winter break in December and a spring break in March.
Bachelors programmes at UAE institutions are available in a range of subjects and a can be studied both full and part time. Full-time courses typically take three to four years to complete.
Universities set their own admission requirements, but to be accepted onto a course international students usually need a high school leaver's certificate or equivalent.
The majority of universities teach in English so if this is not your native language you'll also need to prove your proficiency through an IELTS or TOEFL test. Despite the fact that many universities teach in English you may also need to prove fluency in Arabic.
To search for undergraduate degrees see Arabian Campus - Bachelor degrees.
Most Masters programmes in the UAE are structured in a similar way to those in other parts of the world, with MAs and MScs available. You must have a Bachelors degree to be accepted onto a course. Programmes are taught on a full-time basis and last for one or two years. However, some courses offer the opportunity for part-time, online or distance study, with these options lasting up to five years.
Popular subjects include business administration, architecture, humanities, science and engineering. As in the UK, most Masters courses in the UAE require you to complete a thesis.
The main language of instruction is English, although some institutions may ask for demonstrable knowledge of Arabic.
Other postgraduate qualifications available include the Master of Business Administration (MBA), Executive MBA and PhD.
Search courses in the UAE at the Commission for Academic Accreditation.
Like Masters qualifications, PhDs in the UAE follow a similar structure to those in the UK. Students are required to conduct independent research and submit a thesis.
Doctoral programmes typically last three to four years, depending on your field of study. You must have a Masters degree to apply for these research-based programmes.
PhD's are commonly taken in biotechnology, economics, engineering, science and technology.
For more information, check out Arabian Campus PhDs and Doctorates in UAE.
After 50 years of rapid growth the UAE is one of the planet's most cutting-edge locations, so it's hardly surprising that a number of UK universities have developed campuses in the country.
The University of Middlesex has a campus in Dubai, which provides a range of undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, as well as a number of short professional courses. Heriot-Watt University also offers a variety of Bachelors and Masters courses in Dubai.
University of Strathclyde Abu Dhabi and Dubai.
You may be eligible for postgraduate exchange programmes with your university, so check with your tutor or institution's international office. The UAE institution you're interested in attending may also be able to help.
Those studying science, engineering or technology can embark on 12-week summer placements with IAESTE UK.
UAE citizens get to study postgraduate courses for free at public universities, but international students have to pay tuition fees. Universities in the UAE set their own fees so costs vary depending on your course, level of study and location.
Tuition fees for postgraduate courses are often expensive but the cost of programmes varies significantly. Fees can cost anything between AED 48,000 (£10,331) to AED 120,450 (£25,926).
All courses are assessed in semester credit hours. There are also additional costs to consider such as application fees, accommodation, study materials, food and travel.
Tuition fees might be on the pricey side but there are a select number of funding options.
The United Arab Emirates government does not currently offer scholarship schemes for international postgraduate students, the government scholarships on offer are often reserved for UAE nationals only. However, some institutions in the country offer postgraduate study scholarships to foreign students. You might also be eligible for funding from a UK organisation, depending on what you study.
To gain a student residence visa you will need to be sponsored by a resident of the country. If you don't have any relatives in the UAE your university will likely do this for you, but check with your institution's international office to make sure that they provide this service.
You'll need to apply for the visa online, but bear in mind that sponsorship doesn't always guarantee acceptance.
Student visas are usually only granted for one year but are renewable for the duration of your course. Application costs up to AED 3,000 (£648), plus an additional AED 1,000 (£216) deposit.
postgraduate students will also need proof of a recognised undergraduate degree.
Upon arrival in the country you'll need to undergo a medical examination. This includes testing for HIV, hepatitis B and C, tuberculosis, leprosy and syphilis. If you test positive for any of these diseases, with the exception of syphilis, you'll be deported.
university students must graduate with a distinctive GPA of at least 3.75 from universities within or outside the country.
For more information on student visas see Arabian Campus - UAE study.
Universities set their own application requirements. Applications for postgraduate study are usually completed online and submitted directly to your university of interest. All applications should be made by May/June prior to course start dates.
International English Language Testing System (IELTS) certificate (if applicable).
For more information on entry criteria, contact your chosen university's international student office.
The national language in the UAE is Arabic, although the majority of the population speaks fluent English. If you're taking an English-taught course but would like to learn a second language, there are plenty of places upon arrival that offer Arabic lessons. Learning the national language may also help you to socialise and settle into your new home.
All three public universities expect you to be proficient in Arabic as well as English, while the majority of private institutions teach their programmes in English. If you're not a native speaker of one or both of these languages you'll need to provide proficiency test scores before being admitted onto a course.
Language requirements vary so check with your institution.
With higher education programmes in the UAE following a similar pattern to those in the UK, qualifications gained in the country should be recognised by UK employers.
However, it's always best to check before applying for a course so get in touch with your UAE institution's admissions or international office to confirm that your qualification will be recognised or has an equivalent in the UK.
Similarly always check with employers before applying for a job.

Did you know you can earn a Scholarship to Winthrop University just for attending our conference? Visit raise.me for details!
March 18, 2019: We are all very excited to be hosting everyone this week for the 43rd Annual Winthrop University Model United Nations Conference! As a reminder, we hope that all advisors are aware that the college students are supposed to help high school students on Thursday in their committees. College delegates are told not to write speeches for their delegates and never to be part of the actual proceedings during high school deliberations. At the same time college delegates are a valuable resource for the high schools, and Winthrop was the first MUN model to utilize this approach.
Due to the increased number in delegates this yer, we will be limiting the number of observer delegates to 5- at the absolute maximum.
Remember, the Commission on the Status of Women is now a DOUBLE DELEGATION meaning that 2 students may represent the same country (in this committee only), but will be judged as a team when being considered for awards.
Country Assignments have been completed and distributed via email. Should a school decided to drop out, we will maintain a running list of schools who wish to be considered to absorb their delegation. Please keep in mind that we have a record number of high schools and the country selections have been made in the best possible way to accommodate the greatest number of students.

Navantia and NSAG have signed a $2.8m purchase order which will see NSAG supply the Integrated Platform Management System (IPMS) to the Royal Australian Navy's AOR (Auxiliary Oil Replenishment) ships currently under construction under Defence's SEA1654 program. The order was signed in Adelaide on 23rd. May.
A critical control system on-board a Navy vessel, the IPMS is key to the safety of sailors and provides a significant control over ship operation. The IPMS developed by NSAG has already been installed on the two Canberra Class Amphibious Assault Ships and aboard the three Hobart Class Destroyers.
NSAG, a Navantia Australia and SAGE Automation Joint Venture will install the enclosures and consoles and provide IPMS support under a 5-year support contract.
Navantia Australia's Managing Director Francisco Barón has welcomed the announcement and used the occasion to highlight the importance of partnering with Australian experts to contribute to the Australian ship building industry.
SAGE Automation's CEO Adrian Fahey says that this partnership drives diversification and supports Australian business.
"NSAG has the capability, resources and commitment to remain a key member of the local supply chain for naval shipbuilding and ongoing support in Australia".
"This successful partnership has been a catalyst in our diversification to become an advanced manufacturer, which is enabling us to compete globally and support other Australian businesses to do the same" Mr Fahey concluded.
NSAG has submitted proposals for the Offshore Patrol Vessels and will be part of Navantia's bid for the Future Frigates, opportunities that will bring to South Australian jobs that are in the most innovative space of the shipbuilding.
This latest contract brings the total Royal Australian Navy (RAN) ships with the NSAG IPMS to a total of 7, supporting more than 1500 crew to operate the RAN's newest naval assets.

The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel – Season 1
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel strutted her way to the stage for the first season of the critically acclaimed and Golden Globe-winning series. DMM was tasked with implementing a social strategy that would both attract Amy Sherman-Palladino fans and recruit a new audience that would be dazzled by Mrs. Maisel's charm. Our team was involved right from the inception, bringing Amazon's 2017 pilot season winner to life on social by developing a highly intentional strategy, conceptualizing dynamic creatives, and executing conversational community management.
Our team developed a social strategy that touted the show's unique and fast-paced nuance by harnessing Gilmore Girls fans and inviting larger audiences to come together to learn and laugh from Midge's story. To leverage the classic fast talking and professional bantering of Amy Sherman-Palladino characters, we shared character-specific video content featuring the best dialogue exchanges. This video series introduced the key players of the show with the ASP flair everyone knows and loves.
To attract the attention of new consumers, we conceptualized content that placed the show in the forefront of social conversation. Through leveraging holidays and the cultural zeitgeist, our content drew in larger audiences to meet Mrs. Maisel. At the same time, we sought to roll out content that would highlight the relationship between Midge and Susie with a video series centered around the two characters. Each video featured sage advice and character growth from the two leading ladies, which spoke to the highly relevant female empowerment conversation.
Much like Midge Maisel, we strive to stand out amongst the crowd with our feed and this can especially be seen with our content partnerships. In addition to partnering with Amazon Fashion we teamed up with WhoHaha, and executed a two-day Fooji campaign. With Amazon Fashion we gave users the opportunity to shop Midge's closet through weekly Instagram Stories and Facebook posts which linked to customized shopping lists. In an effort to highlight real women in comedy and speak to the female empowerment themes, we partnered with WhoHaha, a creative community and digital content studio co-founded by DMM, to create six original content series for the campaign. From hosting a live comedy show with female comedians to customized content that highlighted the humor and the heart of the show, the partnership brought Mrs. Maisel to the 21st century. Lastly, we worked with Fooji to execute an activation that sent Chinese food and wine to encourage users to stream the first season on Prime during the holidays. Selling out in the first half of both days showed the impressive number of user participation.
We brought the viewers downtown with Midge Maisel through our community management by using an inviting and familiar voice which sought to celebrate and empower women. Overall, our campaign was successful in anchoring a large fan base that is committed to Midge's growth and feels as though they're part of her family and journey. Through our efforts, we successfully introduced the world to The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel and there is no doubt, that the crowd loves her.

The results of an eastern equine encephalomyelitis (EEE) surveillance program in central New York State during 1972 through 1974 are presented. This period included the state's second epizootic, which occurred in 1974. The deaths of 17 horses in a three-county area were investigated; EEE virus was isolated from the brains of 5, and diagnostic titers of EEE antibody were found in the sera of 7 others. Virus was also isolated in 1974 from the pooled brain and liver of a fox sparrow and from eight pools of mosquitoes: Culiseta melanura (5), Aedes canadensis (2) and Culex pipiens-restuans complex (1). EEE antibody levels in local bird sera rose from 6.5% in the period May through August to 35.7% in September 1974.

Trident Juncture report from international participants' actions
Angie Zelter, Trident Ploughshares, 9th November 2015
Trident Ploughshares received the call-out to to oppose the Trident Juncture military exercise and decided to take part. After all, it was the biggest NATO exercise for 10 years, was about intervening in Africa and included a large contingent of UK military forces. The UK Minister of Defence was to visit the UK forces and it seemed right that UK anti-militarists should support their Spanish colleagues and explain that we, as global citizens, were against NATO and his visit was not in our name. We also wanted to support and strengthen our European network.
Four of us travelled by car and ferry and drove down through Spain and two took a plane from Scotland and then local buses. All 6 of us from Trident Ploughshares reached Barbate in time to join a local meeting where we learnt about the local situation and also gave a short talk about our UK actions and heard from the Swedish contingent (four persons). We all showed our support for the local struggle that aims to recover the land and sea taken from the local farmers and fishermen for military exercises.
The next day we joined a 2 thousand strong local march (mostly from the small town of Barbate) against the exercises taking place and saw for ourselves the beaches which were out of bounds to locals and spattered with soldiers, the seas controlled by warships and submarines with local fishermen denied access to their fishing grounds. We walked 6 kilometres to the main gate of the exercise area and listened to local speakers as they held their rally there and then walked back.
The next day we prepared for our entry into the prohibited exercise area with our Spanish and Swedish colleagues, many of whom we had met previously at Faslane and Burghfield in the UK, at Lulea in Sweden, in Lisbon, Portugal or in Las Palmas, Canary Islands, Spain. The weather was atrocious with huge downpours that left deep puddles that we had to wade through - in fact it never really stopped raining the whole time we were in Barbate - I am glad that we were not camping!
Our European group of anti-militarists went in a convoy of cars to the northern entrance of the huge exercise area, walked through the gate and set up banners, painted on posts and paths and occupied the space for an hour or so. It was obviously not of concern to the military as they ignored us and so as the group had decided not to explore the exercise area or move deeper through it and after a particularly huge downpour, during which we took shelter, we decided to go to the southern entrance which was the main entrance where we had demonstrated two days previously.
We arrived and, finding the gate open, walked straight through and approached the military buildings where we were halted and told to go away. We sat down with our banners, a group poured red paint over themselves and there was a stand-off for an hour until the Guardia Civil turned up to evict us. Unfortunately they were rather vindictive and used pepper spray on several of the protesters, confiscated two cameras and took away 2 mobile phones. Mine was taken away and when I eventually retrieved it from the local police station I found the photos had all been deleted! I complained it was a criminal action as they had deleted vital evidence of our treatment, but they were unconcerned. We hope our local Andalucian colleagues will do a complaint about the treatment and regain possession of the cameras that had still not been returned at the end of the next day. No-one has been charged yet although names and details from ID cards and passports were noted.
The next day most people departed but the 4 of us in a car had been invited to Zaragoza to share information and support their week of action against the exercises. We took part in a march and human chain in the centre of town and also shared information about the European Network and our various actions.
We also had time to enjoy the Roman remains and the amazing Cathedral in Zaragoza before we moved on to Bilbao. After 20 years of protesting against conscription and winning that particular battle and of course within the context of Basque resistance against Franco and military control, the local anti-militarist group here is very strong. We joined in a march of around 5 kilometres against one of their local military bases in Murgia. It was amusing and consisted of dressing up as local peasants planting leeks (the area of the base used to be a market garden and farm) with others dressing up as soldiers. The shared meal at a local restaurant afterwards cemented friendships.
We learnt a lot whilst in Spain, deepening our connections, and now feel that there is much more we could do to strengthen our resistance to the military in Europe by working together. We especially feel that much stronger resistance actions could be planned making use of seasoned activists from our various countries who are willing to risk the consequences. We can now go beyond supporting demonstrations and marches and take part in major resistance and disruptions, fitting them into local strategies.

If you burp, fart, and sneeze at the same time, will you die?
By Cecil Adams Mar 10, 1995
Share All sharing options for: If you burp, fart, and sneeze at the same time, will you die?
Several of our patients have told us of their fear that if they burp, fart, and sneeze simultaneously they will die. Like so many other areas of concern to the general public, this topic was inadequately covered, if at all, in our medical education. Furthermore, many of us have experienced the simultaneous occurrence of two of these physiological events (Tim Allen, personal communication). The law of averages suggests for some of us a triple event (the "Big One"?) may eventually occur. If it were to be accompanied by sudden death, this would be a subject of legitimate anxiety. Thank you for your attention to this question.

I have burped, farted, and sneezed at the same time, and I am still alive.
— Dan Povenmire, Los Angeles
Doctors Levinson and Swain's patients are suffering from a trauma caused by National Lampoon in the early 70s, in whose pages there was a High Flying Rumors Contest. First prize was awarded to the following: "If you burp, fart, and sneeze at the same time, you will die." Although I've kept this information in memory with my tongue firmly planted in cheek, I suspect that some other Lampoon readers took it as gospel. I myself have used this information as way of breaking the ice at parties but never did I dream it would become legend.

Exclusive Interview with Singer/Songwriter Jon Gonzalez
3 weeks ago	INTERVIEWS
How would you classify your music?
Generally, I play a lot of acoustic singer songwriter style music. This song has more of an indie pop feel, with orchestration to round out the piano and vocals, and give it more of a dynamic feel
Who are some of your top 5 musical influences?
City and Colour, Lewis Capaldi, Sam Smith, James Arthur, John Legend
What do you want fans to take from your music?
I want fans to feel an emotional connection to my music, I think writing and performing something that has an emotional influence on people is the reason for music in general, and when I write, I put a lot of emotion into my music.
How's the music scene in your locale?
There is a lot of talent here in Bremerton, I've met some amazing musicians and have had a lot of opportunities to play in several different venues.
What is the best concert you have been to? What do you like most about playing live?
Coheed and Cambria in Philadelphia, the energy they give off when performing was reflected in the crowd. When I play live, I enjoy the ability to share my creations with people, and have met some great friends through performing.
Is there a song on your latest CD release here that stands out as your personal favorite, and why?
My single release, Holding On, which will be available January 24th is my first song that I have recorded and professionally mixed and mastered. It will forever hold a spot in my heart as my first release and as a song I have strong feelings for, because of what inspired it.
How have you evolved as an artist over the last year?
I just started recording my own music in August, and started performing in August, it's been a new path for me that I am excited to continue down. I've spent years trying to improve my musical abilities, practicing everyday, in hopes to create music both myself and other people can enjoy
If you could meet, play a gig, co-write a song, have dinner, have a drink with any band or artist (dead or alive) who would it be?
Dallas Green from City and Colour. I have drawn so much inspiration from his music and hope to create the same effect with my music that he has done for so many people.
I'm going to continue practicing, performing and writing where I can. I plan on releasing a few more singles in 2020 prior to releasing a full album.

I installed leds from oznium in my cupholders yesterday. Im not that happy with the way it turned out. The lights are red. I have no complaints with the lights at all. I just wish I would have installed the led strips above them now. Heres a pic of them installed. I ran these off the accessory switch and thru a relay.
I didnt put one in the cup holder on the dash because I thought about it reflecting off the glass and the white dash. Do you have any pics of your lights on in your boat?
What are you not happy with? Is it the spots above the cupholders where the beam is focused?
I didnt think about it when I ordered the lights and just wish I would have ordered the strips so I would have had an even glow. Its my fault for not really planning out what I was going for. I just kinda dcided and ordered the light slike 10 minutes after i thought about doing it.
on this thread has my pic, looks alot like your just white.
I instal the Ozium led strip 2,4 inch white above the cup holder...I think it does a good job.;) (and in the rear storage as well as in the front where the batterie). I put one strip under the helm (just under the switch) to ligh the cup holder there...I don't think it will be a problem for driving.
For the front I do as you with the small led in the cup holder. :(But as you I'm not sure of the result. They are pretty bright and it light the sky, not the surronding area... I'll wait to see the result on the lake. Maybe I'll have to run with bottle of corona in the front.
I put switches in my jeep that had a blue LED and man they were way too bright. From the side it was OK but reaching around the console they blinded me. I used black touchup paint I had and put a dot on them and it reduced the brilliance where they were acceptable.
I put blue ones in mine and I like them.


South African director Yael Farber explores the extraordinary events of her country's experience of apartheid and its legacy through reworking the Greek classic of the Oresteia.
Molora is set in one of the many South African halls where people gathered to testify at the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. In a dramatic confrontation, Klytemnestra and Elektra, mother and daughter, perpetrator and victim, face one another in an attempt to come to terms with their violent past.
Like South Africa, the audience holds its collective breath and watches this drama unfold. The Chorus of Xhosa tribeswomen bring grace and humanity to the drama through their ancient art of 'split tone' singing, adding a haunting intensity to this evocative production.

Virtual Windshield Sees Through the Car in Front of You
By: Nidhi Goyal | November 3rd, 2013
Invisible vehicles sound cool but so far we have only seen these vehicles in James Bond movies. Now a team of researchers from University of Porto in Portugal have developed an augmented reality system that lets drivers see right through the vehicle in front of them. The technology is known as the See Through System (STS).
This safety system equips the cars with a 'virtual windshield' that helps in judging whether passing is a good idea by eliminating blind spots caused by large vehicles like buses and trucks. The 'virtual windshield' projects images of the road ahead even when the driver's view is blocked.
STS taps into the live video feed from the webcam that the bigger vehicles have installed on their windshield. The STS within your own car will stream the feed from this camera into a transparent LCD screen built into your windshield. This will help you to see through the vehicle in front to judge distances and see if any vehicles are coming from the opposite direction.
It's a great concept with lot of promise but currently the system has a latency of about 200 milliseconds. Even this minute delay in transmission could prove dangerous. It's enough to make an oncoming vehicle appear 10 meters farther away than it really is.
Similar communications mediums like 'Car 2 Car communications systems' are being developed by BMW and Mercedes- Benz as well. With more and more carmakers working on these systems, 007 may not have exclusive bragging rights on invisible vehicles much longer.

Soldiers will claim the exemption by excluding military pay when filing a Kentucky individual income tax return starting with the 2010 return. Provided the military member has no income other than military pay, he or she would not be required to file a Kentucky income tax return. The military pay exemption applies to all Kentucky military members regardless of where the member is stationed. Kentucky income tax should no longer be withheld from checks received for military pay, beginning January 1, 2010. If Kentucky income tax is incorrectly withheld from a soldier's military pay, the Department of Revenue will refund the tax withheld.
Kentucky residents who are in the military are often granted extensions for military service when serving outside the United States. Any extension granted for federal income tax purposes will be honored for Kentucky income tax purposes.


NEW YORK (AP) – Gov. Andrew Cuomo is creating a task force to conduct investigations into nail salons around New York, following a report of widespread exploitation of workers.
The New York Times reported Monday that Cuomo says he will not stand by as workers are deprived of wages.
A two-part investigative series in the Times found nail salon workers were forced to toil long hours amid toxic chemicals performing manicures and pedicures for little wages.
The Times stories also reported many workers suffered serious health problems and there was little, if any, protection for them.
Cuomo says the plans are taking shape after the reports last week.
He says salons will be required to post signs in a half-dozen languages that inform workers of their rights. Responding to the blockbuster expose, the National Asian Pacific American Women's Forum denounced the exploitation, unfair labor practices and health risks faced by nail salon workers, most of whom are "primarily low-income immigrant Asian American women. These conditions include subminimum wage and other unfair labor practices, physical and verbal abuse, ethnic bias, and devastating health impacts–from miscarriages to cancer," the May 8 statement read.
The group's executive director, Miriam Yeung, applauded The New York Times for its work in bringing to light in such dramatic fashion the "deplorable conditions." The group issued a report on the industry in 2011.
"For years, the National Asian Pacific American Women's Forum has called for a federal response," she said, adding that pending New York City legislation does not go far enough.
The NAPAWF is self-described as a multi-issue, progressive, community organizing, and policy advocacy organization for Asian American and Pacific Islander women and girls in the United States.

I was introduced 1st Step Pro-Wellness Supplements by a friend during my pregnancy with my now 6 month old little girl, Madelyn. I was caring for a toddler and working part-time and felt incessantly tired! The multivitamins were as safe to use as prenatal vitamins and were gentle enough that they didn't cause me to be nauseous, which was my experience with other brands. The Liquid Vitamin B12 Boost supplement helped give me a much-needed boost in the afternoon without caffeine. Since having my baby, I am getting back into shape with yoga and hiking. The Multivitamin/Multimineral and B12 supplements give me what I need to feel healthy and energetic, despite the demands of being a busy mom to two children as well as getting back in shape.
I also am a vegetarian and have found adding Whey Protein to fruit shakes is a great way for me to get the needed protein in my diet. I have been on a personal quest to get back in shape and to generally take better care of my body. The 1st Step Pro-Wellness Supplements have been an integral part in that holistic process.

In some instances, a physician may deem the change in prescription dosage to be needed and make the adjustment. In a sit-down interview with teen reporter Marie French, Dr. Volkow explains why prescription-drug abuse may be simply as dangerous as unlawful medication when it comes to well being dangers and habit. Prescription medication is highly regulated within the United States, having to meet a strict set of prerequisites previous to testing and experimentation, and having to satisfy rigorous standards for approval and use. Our Canadian Pharmacy and our skilled, licensed pharmaceutical employees will overview your prescription; assess prescription accuracy; any doable drug interactions and the appropriateness of remedy.
And in addition to rising death tolls, prescription drug abuse is influencing the healthcare system, insurance coverage corporations, and legal guidelines both present and future. International locations with nationwide health programs have government entities that either negotiate drug costs or resolve not to cowl drugs whose prices they deem extreme. Heavy monitoring of prescription dispensaries, from local pharmacies in small suburban areas to main chains like Walgreens, led to provide restriction and restricted what pharmacists might distribute to patients.
A tolerance to the prescription drug is steadily developed, so now increasingly more is required to supply the initial impact. Our educated workers make it easy to order, our return coverage makes it threat free shopping for your prescription drugs online from Canada Medicine and our free shipping will prevent much more cash on each order you make with us. After your 30-day transition provide, we won't pay for these medicine except you get approval for a drug exception. Drugs known as opiate receptor antagonists act by blocking the results of opiate drugs.
To offer a safe and safe purchasing expertise, Canada Drugs is dedicated to meeting and exceeding all standards outlined by the leading pharmacy accreditation organizations. The prescription might have been written resulting from power pain, harm, surgical procedure or despair. Bringing outdated medicines again retains medicine off the streets, out of the fingers of kids and out of our water supply! In some cases, we require you to first attempt sure medication to treat your situation earlier than we cover another drug for that condition.

"Rebecca"
Story by Daphne du Maurier, art/adaptation by Emily Rose Dixon
The following is an exclusive excerpt from The Graphic Canon of Crime and Mystery, edited by Russ Kick. Rebecca (1938), the film, is about the psychological haunting of a widower's second wife by his first wife. It's also a mystery novel because, well, how did Rebecca de Winter die anyway? Daphne du Maurier used the adjectives gloomy and grim to describe her fifth, most successful novel, and others have chimed in with bleak and "the relentlessness of a vivid nightmare." It's also complex and ambiguous: There are elements of androgyny, and the name of the narrator—the second wife of Rebecca's widower—is never revealed. It was made into a classic film by Alfred Hitchcock, who also adapted du Maurier's novel Jamaica Inn and short story "The Birds." Emily Lambert is a full-time designer/illustrator of greeting cards, and she formed a comics collective with her two sisters (shades of the Brontës). The delicacy of her style aptly reflects the fragile state of mind of the unnamed narrator, the unworldy second Mrs. de Winter, who isn't prepared for the life she's jumped into.

The UNEP's International Resource Panel (IRP) put together the report, titled 'Recycling Rates of Metals: A Status Report', which looked at the rates of re-use of 60 metals. Somewhat depressingly, the authors found that recycling rates were less than 50% for two-thirds of the metals looked at - and less than 1% for 34 of them.
Given that most metals are relatively easy to extract and re-smelt, those low rates are somewhat surprising. The report quotes research that puts the energy efficiency of recycling metals at between two and ten times higher, than for digging metallic ores out of the ground, and then smelting them. With ore mining responsible for 7% of worldwide greenhouse gas emissions, the benefits of raising the rates of recycling are obvious.
Ironically, it is some of the metals most needed to power the green economy that are currently the worst offenders, in the recycling league table. Indium, used in energy efficient LED lighting; dysprosium and neodymium in wind turbine magnets; selenium and tellurium, found in solar cells; and lanthanum a component of hybrid electric vehicle batteries - all of these have less than 1% recycling rates.
This new report is a follow on from an earlier IRP 'decoupling' report, which looked at the benefits of decoupling economic growth from growing resource use. It showed that the mining of minerals and ores was 27 times greater by the end of the 20th century, compared to its start.
That is an increase in resource use that is much higher than the overall growth in the world economy, over the same time period.
With three times as much rock needing to be moved to hack each tonne of ore from the earth, the era of cheap and plentiful metals is likely drawing to a close. And there are many things that even individuals can to help put matters to rights - starting with the emptying drawers and garages of electronic clutter that will never be used again.
Nick Nuttall, spokesperson for UNEP: ''I am as guilty as anyone here. Like a squirrel or a magpie, my home and office drawers and cupboards are packed with old mobile phone chargers, USB cables, defunct laptops and the like. I somehow imagine that they might come in useful one day-but of course they never do.'' One way of kick-starting rising metal recycling rates would seem to lie in a little domestic de-cluttering.

Building a New Generation of Intelligent Robots to Automate Quality Assurance, Traceability in Manufacturing, Logistics
Elementary Robotics, seeking to transform manufacturing with intelligent automation, closed a $12.7 million Series A funding round
LOS ANGELES — Manufacturers today are dealing with an array of challenges to keep up, including securing and retaining skilled labor, producing high quality products at larger volumes and lower prices, and implementing remote production monitoring. Today's challenges also require evolving strategies to support employee health and safety, such as integrating proper social distancing into factories.
Among these challenges, visual inspection and traceability have traditionally been especially difficult to automate. Often, they've resulted in lower throughput, added headcount, high turnover, inconsistent results, and low data tracking, according to Elementary Robotics, a Los Angeles-based robotics startup that recently closed a $12.7 million Series A funding round led by Threshold Ventures (formerly DFJ), an early-stage investor in disruptive technology companies.
Elementary Robotics, founded in 2017, has built a hardware and software platform for applying machine learning and computer vision for intelligent automation of quality and traceability workflows in manufacturing and logistics, the company said in a release. Elementary's products automate inspections and are said to help customers achieve value across the production line by using deep learning to find defects, including those that manufacturers didn't even know to look for.
The Elementary platform delivers inspections that are easy to set up, traceable in the cloud, and allow for human inspectors to be kept in the loop to further train the system over time, according to the company.
"Toyota is always looking for ways to leverage innovative technologies to help our employees and improve the manufacturing process, and we're excited to partner with Elementary in our Indiana plant," said Jason Puckett, vice president of manufacturing, Toyota Motor Manufacturing Indiana, in the release. "Elementary's platform will bring value to our production lines by allowing us to automate traceability scans and add AI, machine vision, and automation."
Elementary Robotics said it is working with multiple world class manufacturing and logistics companies that have benefited from the platform. These benefits are said to include transition to 100 percent inspection where, previously, only sample-based inspection occurred; remote visibility into quality and production lines; and automation of known visual inspections and discovery of new defects, resulting in decreased scrap rates. Another benefit is the standardization of inspection tasks and ease of duplication across different factories and production lines in an affordable manner, the company said.
Elementary Robotics' new round of capital, which also had participation from existing investors Fika Ventures, Fathom Capital, Ubiquity Ventures, and Toyota AI Ventures, allows Elementary to continue developing and deploying its automation products at scale. With this round, Threshold Ventures Partner Mo Islam has joined the Elementary Robotics Board of Directors.
"Elementary has developed a software-defined robotics solution to automate visual inspection, leveraging deep learning-based computer vision and low-complexity, rapidly deployable hardware," said Mo Islam, partner at Threshold Ventures, in a statement. "We were immediately impressed with the team's product-led sales approach, and are excited by their potential as a leader in the industrial machine vision space."
A full-stack robotics company, Elementary Robotics (https://www.elementaryrobotics.com) is tackling machine learning for robotic hardware from the ground up. The company, incubated at Idealab in Pasadena, was founded by industry veterans of IoT, wearables, augmented reality, and robotics from Qualcomm, Caltech, NASA JPL, SpaceX, and Art Center College of Design. Its mission: to create assistive tools to improve human output of repetitive tasks.
"Building Elementary has been a fantastic journey over the past three years, and I've enjoyed working with our world-class partners to develop scalable solutions to their problems, which our team is well-suited to solve," said Arye Barnehama, founder and CEO of Elementary Robotics, in a statement. "I'm extremely excited to go public with what we're building, continue to support more companies with their quality and traceability needs, and grow the Elementary team to expand and deploy our innovative platform."

Michael Dunn have done a research on FPGA boards available for less than $100. We all know that hobby market is always looking for low price hardware to do amazing projects. We already have almost free microcontroller boards including 8-bit and 32-bit ARM. FPGA always were was behind barrier. Not things seems to changing.
Today you can get quit several FPGA boards for your projects that are under $100 limit. You can find boards from Altera, Cypress, Lattice, Microsemi, Xilink and even more that aren't listed. The lowest price you can find is like $4 for PSoC 4 FPGA board (at least more or less). In that price range you can get up to 22 kLE (logic elements). This is more than enough to run soft processor, build calculus intense projects like signal generators, scopes, signal processing modules and other projects where microcontrollers wouldn't have enough juice. It takes some learning to get used to them, but there is quite enough tutorials to get started.

Ending a Project/Contract
Ending a Project/Contract:
Ending a project and ending a contract are not inherently the same in every case. Often they can coincide but one cannot substitute the other. Contracts may end for these factors:
by Breach
by Successful Completion
Successful Completion of the contract means all goals and objectives have been delivered. This leads to acceptance of the deliverables and payment.
An understanding between the parties facilitates an end to a contract. There is mutual consent of closure.
In instances of breach of contract by either or both the parties a contract may come to an end. A breach is a default situation needing legal recourse. Calling on the legal processes is usually taken as the last resort. While deciding on legal action, remedy clauses are given special consideration. A project may terminate due to:
Inclusion/Absorption/Addition
Starvation/Deterioration
Extinction/Collapse
Definitions below:
Integration: When project resources are allocated to other areas and the normal operations of the business it is termed as integration. Generally the resources are merged back from where they were drawn upon.
Extinction or Collapsed Mode: A project that concludes before meeting its final objectives is termed as an ending in the collapsed or extinction mode.
Inclusion, Absorption or Addition: A project that is approved and transferred into the organization is said to be included, absorbed or added.
Deterioration, Starvation: A project with resources that have been cut is said to be in deterioration or starvation mode.
Final Review Meeting: This is the last step performed when closing a project. Once the deliverables are sent, resources released, documentation done, the project manager then meets with the project sponsor to obtain a release for himself.

Modern day slavery in Southeast Asia: Thailand and Cambodia
Tech and Education
by Laurence Bradford - Jul 23, 2013
Many in Western, developed nations believe that slavery has been long abolished. In reality it is a thriving multi-billion dollar industry — some estimate it is generating $35 billion annually. The UN believes that somewhere between 27 and 30 million individuals are currently caught in the slave trade, amounting to more than the population of Texas. And Southeast Asia is a major hotspot for such activities.
Often human trafficking is associated with women and girls being traded for sex. However, modern day slavery encompasses both genders and can take many forms. The UNODC estimated that 24 per cent of the global slave population in 2009 were male. Slavery can also include indentured servitude, other exploitation in the workforce or even the organ trade. Nevertheless, compared to the other types of forced labour, sexual exploitation comprises 58 per cent of the total. And women make up the majority of those being forced.
According to the Philippine's justice undersecretary Jose Salazar, recent proliferation of technology has allowed human traffickers to become better organised and more connected. In fact, Salazar asserts that human trafficking has overtaken the illegal arms trade as the second largest criminal industry in the world. And it's still growing.
Human trafficking is defined by high profits and low risks. There is minimal "capital" investment and a commodity that can be used over and over again. Looking at Southeast Asia, it can be agreed that Thailand and Cambodia are two countries where human trafficking is most rampant.
Representatives from the Children's Organization of Southeast Asia (COSA) conclude that Thailand is one of the main trafficking hubs in the world. The only close comparison would be India, they said. There are three components to trafficking: source, destination, and transit. Unfortunately Thailand features all three.
Nevertheless, Thailand experiences a relatively stable government. The problem in Thailand is that there is a massive preexisting sex industry. And this industry has gone hand-in-hand with the tourism boom. The epicenter of Thailand's sex industry is undoubtedly the beach town of Pattaya. After a recent visit, Rachel Neff from NGO Destiny Rescue determined that the city hosts 20,000 brothels. With a population of anywhere between 100,000 to 300,000 — depending on the season — the ratio of brothels to citizens is astounding.
In Pattaya, the sex industry is blatant. According to Ms. Neff, policemen in the city casually sit outside near brothels where traffickers make trades and girls are being forced into sexual acts. In fact, many girls Destiny Rescue saves in Pattaya have reported policemen as the ones who initially brought them to the brothel.
Still government officials in Thailand are willing to work with Destiny Rescue; additionally, they have anti-trafficking measures of their own. However, because of cities like Pattaya, the sex industry in Thailand is glorified. This reality poses an obstacle in making human trafficking become obsolete.
On the other hand, the sex industry in Cambodia is much more secretive. It is not in-your-face like it is in Thailand, with go-go bars lining the famed streets of Pattaya. In Cambodia it exists inconspicuously in karaoke bars, coffee houses and so forth. Also unlike Thailand, Cambodia faces much more government corruption and overall lack of initiative. Heather Nichols, a representative of Daughters of Cambodia, maintains that Cambodia does not have any tangible anti-trafficking legislation like neighbouring Thailand. Government officials of all ranks are a major part of the problem, said Ms. Nichols.
Notably, in Cambodia the risks are quite low for traffickers. It is easy to pay one's way out of prosecution. Even if an illegal brothel is raided, it will simply cost a little bit more to move locations and get the working girls back from the police.
A growing trend in Cambodia, and elsewhere in Southeast Asia, is that girls from the countryside are often led into urban areas under the false assumption of getting a new, better-paying job. Believing to work as a waitress or maid, many girls soon find themselves caught in the sex trade. This trickery also occurs between country borders. Many times girls relocate to a nearby country with the hope of economic advancement. Without proper ID or working papers, girls sometimes find themselves taking under-the-table positions. Low and behold, this new job may in fact be forced prostitution.
Thailand and Cambodia present two very different cases of modern day trafficking. While the future may appear grim, there is hope. Through NGOs like COSA, Destiny Rescue and Daughters of Cambodia, victims are being saved. Awareness is spreading. In the end, prevention and rescue programmes can only reach so many. In the words of Ms. Nichols, human trafficking and the sex trade will remain consistent "as it will require cultural norms to change for the industry to stop thriving."

#57: "All doctrines were soon adjusted to fit 1844 as the cleansing of the sanctuary and the beginning of the investigative judgment. [#58:] The shut door had to be opened to allow salvation for their own children who had been born after 1844 and to evangelize others into Adventism. [#59:] Salvation for everyone, even those who lived in Bible times, had to be conditional on this judgment, and so soul sleep was introduced. [#60:] The prophecies of Daniel and Revelation had to be reinterpreted to fit the investigative judgment. [#61:] It was a time of turmoil and doctrinal reversal, but the investigative judgment doctrine survived with Ellen White's stamp of approval."—Dale Ratzlaff.
#57: All doctrines were soon adjusted. And what doctrines were these? The documentation package doesn't explain this statement or list any "adjusted" doctrines. What follows in Mr. Ratzlaff's list doesn't include any doctrines "adjusted" to fit the cleansing of the sanctuary or the investigative judgment.
#58: That shut door of mercy had to be opened. The shut door was dealt with under #48-#54. We'll add another point here.
At first the vast majority of non-Millerites, like the Gentiles in the days of the apostles, had no interest in hearing Adventists preach. The door indeed was shut. But at some point, like in the early church, a change came. The door was opened, and people wanted to listen.
Such an opening of the door would not be an adjustment because of the cleansing of the sanctuary and investigative judgment doctrines, but rather the result of the providence of God and the workings of His Spirit. It was the result of a change in the climate for evangelism, not an "adjustment" of doctrine.
#59: Soul sleep was introduced because of the investigative judgment. This is not true, and the context of a statement found in the documentation package proves it.
Under "Point 33" is a selection from page 49 of Life Sketches describing Mrs. White's hearing of a sermon on soul sleep some months after a conversation between her and her mother on the same subject. Both the conversation and the sermon took place before October 22, 1844, as the context clearly shows.
Yet the doctrine of the investigative judgment, as understood today, did not come along until after October 22. Thus soul sleep could not have been introduced because of the investigative judgment doctrine.
The phrase "investigative judgment" was coined by Elon Everts in a letter dated December 1856, which was published in the January 1, 1857, issue of Review and Herald (p. 72). It was at this time that the doctrine of the investigative judgment was crystallized, though hints of some of its fundamental concepts had surfaced previously.
Prominent Millerite leader, Josiah Litch, suggested as early as 1840 that there had to be a trial phase of judgment before an executive phase. Occasionally, Sabbatarian Adventists would refer to Christ's wearing the "breastplate of judgment" on the Day of Atonement or to judgment beginning at the end of the 2300 years, but at other times they would declare that the Day of Judgment could not begin before the second advent. Not until 1857 was a solid understanding of the subject arrived at by Sabbatarian Adventists (C. Mervyn Maxwell, "The Investigative Judgment: Its Early Development," in The Sanctuary and the Atonement, pp. 545-581).
So while soul sleep was introduced before October 22, 1844, the doctrine of the investigative judgment was not crystallized and fully formulated until over twelve years after.
Who introduced the concept of soul sleep or, as it is also known, conditional immortality among the pre-1844 Millerites?
Deacon Henry Grew of Philadelphia became a believer in conditional immortality while serving as a Baptist preacher. He later wrote a tract on the subject which was read by George Storrs, a Methodist preacher, in 1837. Storrs then wrote his own tract in 1841, and published six sermons on the subject in 1842. Copies of his six sermons eventually amounted to 200,000, and even reached England.
Miller, Josiah Litch, I. E. Jones, and the Signs of the Times all came out against his views on conditional immortality, so his views were anything but unanimously held. But the point is that the idea of conditional immortality was definitely introduced before a consensus was reached among Sabbatarian Adventists regarding the investigative judgment (Froom, vol. 4, pp. 805-807; Conditionalist Faith of Our Fathers, vol. 2, pp. 300-315).
As earlier mentioned, Joseph Bates, James White, and Ellen White are viewed as being founders of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Both Bates and James White were members of the Christian Connection, which "as a body rejected the inherent-immortality-of-the-soul-position" (Ibid., pp. 283, 672, 675). Bates and James were therefore acquainted with the idea long before Storrs introduced the subject among Millerites.
If we must seek it, it must be something we do not yet have. And obviously we don't yet have it. Immortality means "unable to die," and we presently can and do die.
Only upon condition that we accept Jesus as our Savior do we receive immortality at the resurrection. For this reason, "soul sleep" is called "conditional immortality."
#60: The prophecies of Daniel and Revelation were reinterpreted to fit the investigative judgment. This accusation doesn't really make sense. Once the doctrines of the cleansing of sanctuary and the investigative judgment were formulated, what prophecies needed to be reinterpreted to fit them?
The basic interpretations of Daniel and Revelation were already worked out before October 22, 1844. This was before Edson and Crosier published their [p. 50] study on the cleansing of the sanctuary in 1845 or 1846. It was definitely before Elon Everts helped crystallize the subject of an investigative judgment in 1857.
The documentation package lists this as "Point 34." Under "Point 34" are two pages out of The Great Controversy, but nothing on these two pages refers to a reinterpretation of the prophecies of Daniel and Revelation to fit the investigative judgment.
#61: It was a time of doctrinal reversal. What doctrines were reversed? The shut door? But Adventists were definitely actively preaching to non-Millerites long before 1857, the "door of access" having opened a number of years earlier. A change in the time to keep the Sabbath (see #164-#174)? Changing by minutes or an hour when to commence the Sabbath wouldn't constitute a doctrinal reversal.

'Cutting' Gujarati Series Review
I think it's fair to say that Over The Top (OTT) platforms have given storytelling a new lease on life as we have seen an increase in the consumption of world cinema. Parasite, Money Heist, Jallikattu are few such examples. Thanks to these OTT platforms, quality storytelling is no longer dependent on tentpole actors or larger-than-life technology. If an authentic story is told with an earnest effort, chances are such storytelling will see the light of day. One such web series is Cutting – a Gujarati web series available on OHO Gujarati platform in India.
Directed by Pratik Rajen Kothari, Cutting is the first of its kind Gujarati anthology web series consisting five episodes of 10-mins each. Each episode contains a short story that showcases different challenges faced by people from different walks of life. Every episode ends with an anecdote about life and connecting these different stories are the web-series main actors Sunny (Mayur Chauhan) and Bobby (Hemang Shah). Sunny and Bobby are brothers who have inherited a haircutting salon named 'Perfect Look Salon'. Both brothers are passionate but for different things. Sunny is passionate about hair-styling and Bobby is passionate about being successful and it is their squabble that forms the soul of the web series.
Known for his impactful performances in previous Gujarati films such as Machchhu and Karsandas Pay & Use, Mayur Chauhan has given a spirited performance as Sunny. Chauhan's body language and mannerism would make people nostalgic about the time they have spent interacting with their hair-stylist/barber at an Indian salon. Complimenting Chauhan is Hemang Shah who plays the role of Bobby. If Chauhan's character gives us a voice of reasoning, Shah's character shows us a glimpse of an opportunistic world. Shah's impeccable timing and dialogue delivery of asking questions at an inappropriate time give us plenty of memorable scenes throughout the web series. Very few people know that this is not the first time both actors have come together. Their first project together was in 2017 in Karsandas Pay & Use and I think it is fair to say that both actors have grown stronger in their craft. Marshalling the troop, we have Pratik Rajen Kothari as the director. Kothari has done a splendid job directing all five episodes. Kothari's direction is so immaculate that even though the entire web series is shot in a small salon, the spatial limitation becomes irrelevant as the audience is completely hooked on to the stories they are watching. This isn't the first time Kothari has received accolades for his direction. His previous film 'Grill' was recently picked up by Disney+ Hotstar as a part of its curated short films. I am confident that we are going to see more from this talented young director in the future.
As a devourer of world cinema, I have always enjoyed watching international films. For this reason, I was so happy to see a fresh, simple, and entertaining web series in my mother tongue. 'Cutting' is definitely a feel-good web series that can be enjoyed by everyone in the family.
