Peace of Mind app earns Edwardsville student a national nod

Edwardsville High School senior Jordan Schaeffer's application recently won first place in the U.S. Congressional App Challenge for Illinois Congressional District #13.
Submitted for use
Edwardsville High School senior student Jordan Schaeffer recently won first place for his app "Peace of Mind" in the U.S. Congressional App Challenge for Illinois Congressional District #13.
According to the Congressional App Challenge website, every year the Congressional Internet Caucus initiates the annual CAC to challenge students in their districts to create and submit original apps.
"As U.S. Representatives we publicly recognize our winning teams and each winning app may be put on display in the U.S. Capitol Building for one year. The CAC's mission is to inspire, include and innovate efforts around STEM, coding and computer science education," according to the website.
"Peace of Mind" is a virtual reality application that transports the user to a place of calm and tranquility with the use of a VR headset, according to Shaeffer.
"I got inspiration for my app from times in my life when I was in certain locations and felt an overwhelming sense of peace and tranquility," Shaeffer said. "I wanted to find a way to harness those feelings into a portable form."
Shaeffer said creating the app took roughly two months to complete.
"There is a lot of planning, trying, failing and learning that goes into making an app," Shaeffer said. "This was my first time programming all around, and I hope to use the skills I learned with this app in the future for other projects."
While Shaeffer has always had an interest in the world of programming, he said this recent project has fostered "a fiery passion."
Shaeffer found out about his achievement when he received an email congratulating him on earning first place. He said when he entered the CAC he said he had no expectation for success.
"It was more so something to do for fun and a challenge," Shaeffer said. "I was extremely shocked and surprised whenever I find out I had won."
"Jordan is a great young man and I know will succeed in whatever path he chooses," Shaeffer's teacher of business and applied technology Dene Schickedanz said. "He is an absolute joy to have in class and adds so much to our tech environment."
Schickedanz said students in his class have the option to enter the CAC for extra credit. Four EHS students have won the CAC since 2016.
"I am very proud of the students and their successes in this event," Schickedanz said. "As a technology teacher I don't really focus on where our kids place, I just want as many submissions as we can get and a real interest in the creation of all the apps."
Schickedanz said the students in his class have the autonomy to create any type of app that interests them. One of his favorite aspects of the CAC is the lack of limitations they place on what the students can create.

Balancing out the production of rice, vanilla and coffee, while conserving biodiversity in national parks, can secure livelihoods and ecosystem services for different stakeholders. Recent research partnership activities lay out a vision for a sustainable future.
Traditional practices of shifting cultivation, combined with an increasing need for arable land, lead to deforestation in north-eastern Madagascar. The Analanjirofo region is prone to overuse natural resources and is witnessing the loss of biodiversity. But how can stakeholders co-develop shared visions for a sustainable development?
The r4d projectManaging telecoupled landscapes for the sustainable provision of ecosystem services and poverty alleviationconnected different stakeholders who were not used to working together. Farmers, middlemen, government and NGO representatives met regularly to develop shared visions for future land use and to exchange ideas. They experimented with and implemented new farming techniques on how to balance producing rice and coffee for their own use and cultivating of cash crops such as vanilla and cloves for international markets while avoiding further deforestation.

I was pointed by one of my Pearson team members (have I mentioned I love my job? I love my job) to this wonderful piece by Betty Azar (author of the Grammar Bibles, you know, the red, blue, and black books) related to hearing the sounds of grammar.
This is such a great examination of contracted speech and I think establishes some points about how native speakers introduce errors to our students through our own speech patterns.
Additionally, I think this would make an excellent conversation starter for a reflective grammar class for B2-C1 (GSE 59 to 84) level learners.
It made me think about this grammar exercise for using "will". While this exercise is designed for more of an A2 learner, adding a redacted speech practice element would certainly bump of the level and make this an engaging and challenging activity.

Need a gift fast? No time to shop? Tinker together a lovely little lamp out of things lying around the house.
If you're lucky, you might even find everything in the same room.
- Needle-nosed pliers will help.
Make sure your can is clean. Mark and cut off the bottom inch of the can. Try and keep your cut as straight and level as possible, without bending the aluminum out of shape. There's a good method here to do so. Now would be a good time to check the inside of your can to make sure it's as clean as possible.
Be careful about the edges of the can, they're like having even more knives to think of while you work.
Draw out and cut the holes you want your light to shine through. You'll probably want to keep it simple, as precise cutting is difficult with an X-acto knife and scissors (If you know a better way please, don't hesitate to let me know!). Just make sure you have a hole large enough for you to reach inside to set up the lamp. If you're shaving off small pieces with scissors I recommend eye protection, the clippings tend to fly off quickly.
Roll up a paper towel until it's about a half-centimeter thick. This will be your wick. Unbend your paper clip and wind it once around the wick, ending with the free ends at a 90 degree angle. Shave off each end of the wick so they extend about half a centimeter out from the paper clip.
Take the bottom part of the can and place it upside-down. Place the wick inside, situating it at the center, where the curve is deepest. Cut off the ends of the paper clip to fit inside the curve, or bend it to hook onto the edges.
Now might be a good time to test the lamp part. Fill it with cooking oil and wait for it to soak through the wick before lighting it. If the flame starts smoking, your wick is too long.
Now take that hood you made cutting up the rest of the can and jam it down onto the lamp. It would be easier if the lamp were empty. Replace the wick through the hole and fill it back up.
I had to use a little cup thing to get the oil in there, If you end up using one, you'll probably want to include that with the gift. Aim-a-flame lighters are also very helpful when lighting through the holes in the can.
Now come up with a clever pun to excuse your last-minute present as being romantic. Something about carrying a flame, or lighting up the dark, or burning emotions... Chicks dig that kind of thing. Just don't burn their house down.
Be aware that the top of the can will heat up a lot once the lamp is lit, so make sure you avoid touching it.
You could also use an LED set-up for the light instead of using oil or candle.
Very imaginative! I'll be sure to try this!!

"Did he just say, 'Take me to your leader'?" Corporal Arp asked.
"Secure that shit!" 1st Sgt. Pethoukis growled, softly.
Captain Lewis stepped forward and rendered a crisp salute. The wind from behind him started up some tiny dust devils on the road. Before him, he watched nineteen refugees from a big-budget Hollywood production and one slight, bedraggled Iraqi watch him intently. The faces of the knights, especially the big guy in the golden armor, were open, friendly. The priests and monks maybe less so, but certainly not unfriendly.
The Iraqi looked angry. But he looked like he was the kind that was always angry.
Prince Raimond looked on expectantly.
"Tell him I am Captain Thomas Lewis, of the United States Marine Corps." There was some back and forth as the Iraqi explained things in Arabic to one of the monks, who translated that for the Prince.
The golden-armored knight rattled off some more of the French-sounding language, which again bounced from the monk to the Arab to Lewis.
"With the Prince are Odo, Duke Polinhac, Strategos." The Iraqi translator pointed at the knight to the left of the Prince. An older man, grey in his beard, craggy face and rather grim looking behind his smile of greeting. The Iraqi gestured at the other knight, a younger man handsome and blond, "And Siegfried, Baron Vischennes and aide to the Prince."
Behind the three knights, the two monks were Abbot-Bishop Thibaud and Priestmonk Pietr of the Order of St. Johanet. The Abbot was in his sixties, perhaps; kindly in appearance with a long beard still mostly auburn though streaked with grey. The younger monk, Pietr, was clean shaven, tonsured, with black hair and an open face.
The two priest-looking individuals were Archpriest Isadore and Archimandrite John. Both had long beards, like the priests Lewis remembered from Russia. They were of the same age, he guessed, about forty. They looked similar, too, with the same aquiline noses and blue eyes. Isadore had rich vestments with crosses embroidered in the fabric in a complicated, repeating pattern – like a floor done up in gold and green cruciform tiles. John's vestments were not so rich, and colored in a dark burgundy with rather less gold. His vestments also had a cross pattern, but a different one with more complicated crosses. Looking at it too long started his eyes to hurting; it was much like looking at one of those computer fractal pictures.
The Arab pointed at himself, and smiled sourly. "And I am Burhan Mohammed Madhour"
The other knights didn't seem to merit an introduction. Well, there seems to be a protocol here, Lewis thought. Lewis gestured at Pethoukis. "With me are my second in command, First Sergeant Michael Pethoukis, and Corporals Evans and Arp."
The Arab began again. This must be a canned speech as there wasn't the same backing and filling as before.
"Captain Lewis, the Prince greets you and says, 'For four centuries, the veil between worlds was closed. For centuries before that it was an inconstant and treacherous door'" the Arab paused. "'Or gate.' He concentrated.
"The Prince says, 'Now that the veil is open once more those who fear God are in danger. Danger from the likes of those we fought this morning. Danger from greater and more powerful evils. I have been sent by my royal father to seek alliance with those we left behind; to offer aid and assistance and to ask the same. We looked to find the Kingdom of France, or England – but we are told'" the Arab interjected, "I told him." He continued the translation, "That these are no longer or shadows of former greatness."
"This man who speaks my words tells me that your United States is born of England and now the most powerful kingdom below Heaven. We wish to treat with your King."
Holy crap, Lewis thought, I'm no ambassador. The Prince looked at him patiently. Well, here goes….
"Tell the Prince I am just a captain in my nation's armed forces. I can't negotiate treaties. I would be happy to take him to see the President. The only problem is that the President is on the other side of the planet and we're in the middle of an invasion. And there's God knows how many goblins between us and any way out."
Lewis looked more closely at the knight. His armor was splendid. The lines of the armor were elegant and even though Lewis knew next to nothing about medieval armor, it had clearly been crafted by a master. Lewis was sure, though, that this wasn't show armor. There were battle scars on that armor, and it had the look of long use. There were bloodstains on the prince's surcoat – although likely not his own blood, seeing what happened that morning. The Prince was relaxed and at ease, in control.
The other knights had the same air of lethal competence. Normally, Lewis and his Marines habitually showed the same demeanor. But they had been rocked by events that for them had no precedent and they were reeling still from their unlikely salvation. It was obvious that these events did have precedent for this bunch.
Lewis tried to find solid ground. "I think that we'll be needing friends just about now." He told the Arab translator. "Tell the Prince, I'll take him to the gulf where he can meet with my superiors. Or die trying."
The message filtered its way to the Prince. The Prince nodded, and then smiled. Broad grins broke out on most of the Prince's company. Hit a chord there, thought Lewis.
The Prince stepped forward and held out his hand. Lewis held out his automatically, and the Prince grasped his forearm and pulled him forward. Lewis felt a mighty clap on his shoulder. Christ, this guy is strong, he thought. The Prince released him and spoke.
"The Prince says, 'Valiantly said. And an excellent beginning. We will be good friends, I trust. But there is much to be done, and much to be discussed. We must give thanks to God for our victory. The spoils of war must be divided. We must plan. And we must eat!'" The Prince looked around the small, dusty hamlet and the rude fortifications the Marines had erected.
"There is not much room here, I think. We will make use of the enemy's encampment. Join us there." The Prince had the command voice, no question.
Lewis paused. This guy seemed friendly. Hell, he was a dream come true. But still…. "Tell the Prince, 'Thank you' for the offer. But we must stay here in the village for now. We have wounded to attend to, and they would not be helped by moving."
The Prince looked very mildly annoyed; but both of the other fancy knights, Lewis noted, nodded sagely.
"Perhaps the Prince and his companions could join us for lunch, and we can continue our discussion?" Lewis suggested.
The Prince smiled again, and nodded. He turned and rattled off a series of commands to the Baron, his aide-de-camp.
"Captain Lewis, if you would be so kind as to send a dozen or so of your men down to the valley with beasts of burden, we may share the spoils of battle. Our presence here in this world can not have gone undetected, and we will have to move quickly."
"Very well, your Highness. Are there any more Arabic speakers with you? One of my men speaks Arabic, and he could translate." Our other Arabic speaker died on the wall this morning, Lewis thought.
"Yes, captain, there are others." He turned and rattled off more instructions to the Baron.
Lewis turned to his First Sergeant. "Pethoukis, you lead the detail. Use the humvees, I don't think anything else will make it down the road since we unpaved it. Take Gamez, he speaks Arabic. Make nice, do anything they ask as long as it's reasonable. Then come back here as quick as you can. And obviously, keep your eyes and ears open."
The Marines' ad-hoc motor pool was at the gas station just inside the improvised defenses. Some of Lewis' men were there, cleaning weapons and doing maintenance. Pethoukis started shouting out names, quickly collecting a dozen Marines and chivvying them into a half dozen of their up-armored humvees.
"Prince Raimond?" Lewis said. "My men are ready."
The Prince looked on curiously at the humvees. "These are military vehicles, captain?"
"Yes, your Highness, they…"
"Captain Lewis, pardon my interruption. But we are in the field. I am just a captain myself here, of a small company. You must call me 'Prince,' or even 'Raimond.' If you cannot restrain yourself, you may address me as 'Sir.' May I call you Thomas?" The Prince smiled his warm smile again.
"Uh, certainly, your Highness. I mean, 'Prince.' I have to admit, I am not in the habit dealing with princes. My country is a republic and we have no aristocracy, no royalty. And even if we did I wouldn't be in their company."
The prince laid an armored hand on Lewis' shoulder. "Thomas, you sell yourself short, I am sure. I know that in my kingdom, a man such as you would not linger long in obscurity."
"Aah, thank you, Prince Raimond." Damn, Lewis thought, he's got charisma out the ass. "But yes, these are military vehicles. They are lightly armored, for defense against small weapons fire and IEDs."
"IEDs?"
"The locals have a habit of burying explosives in the roads."
"I see. I take it that if you call these lightly armored, you must have heavy armored vehicles?"
He's not slow, Lewis thought. "Yes, we have heavy armored vehicles, tanks and Strykers. They also carry heavier weapons."
The Prince nodded thoughtfully, then spoke a few last orders to the young baron, who leapt back into the saddle, and called to two of the armored horsemen to accompany him down the road back into the valley.
The two fell in line behind Siegfried, who rode off toward the gate. Pethoukis pulled the lead humvee in behind, startling the horses a bit, who clearly weren't used to the sound and appearance of internal combustion vehicles.
Lewis watched the three horseman lead six humvees down into the valley, weaving left and right to avoid the worst of the craters littering the roadway. The horses had an easier time of it, Lewis thought. The humvees were wide bitches, but at least they had a high ground clearance.
The Prince said to Lewis, through the translators, "An odd procession, do you agree?"
"I have instructed the Baron to tell my compatriots that all is well, and to continue on without us. He will find another of Father Pietr's order who can translate for your men. I think they can manage without us for at least a little while, no? Now, Thomas, where shall we adjourn and break our fast?"
Lewis said, "Sir, this village isn't much, but there's a small coffee house we can use. I've been using it as my headquarters. Your men can either wait here and eat with my Marines."
"Excellent, Thomas," The Prince said. He turned and spoke to his remaining guard. Four of the soldiers took charge of the horses, leading them over to the wall. The rest stood at ease, waiting.
Lewis turned to Corporal Arp. "Arp, see to the Prince's men. Get them food and water, settle them in until we're finished." He looked over at the men with the horses, and added, "And more water for the horses."
Arp waved at the Prince's guard to follow him, and they fell in behind. The corporal led them over to join the Marines in the gas station parking lot.
Lewis and the Prince watched for a moment as the two groups mingled. Arp walked over to a box sitting in the shade of the gas station's wall and started grabbing MRE's and tossing them to the Prince's guard. The guards looked puzzled at the thick plastic bags, turning them over in their hands.
Arp turned around with an MRE in his hand. "Procedure for eating an MRE," he said, loudly. The Prince's men looked only mildly confused. They don't have the language, but they recognize the attitude, Lewis thought.
"First assure yourself that there is no real food available." Arp ostentatiously looked left and right. The guardsmen looked confused, but a few of the Marines chuckled. Father Pietr smiled, and shouted out a translation. The guardsmen relaxed and smiled.
"Your highness, I don't think we want to be here when they taste their first MRE."
"Your march rations are foul-tasting?" Duke Odo asked.
"Yes, sir, they are."
"I had hoped things would have improved. You've had centuries to work on this, Thomas," the Prince said.
Lewis smiled. "That's the way of the world, sir. No one cares what the poor bloody infantry has to eat."
Duke Odo laughed. "Even if a Prince is with them, sadly."
"And we didn't know you'd be coming back today," Lewis added. "Otherwise we might have made more of an effort."
"This way, then?" Lewis said, and started off towards down the street.

Ian Thomas Healy says:
This is a much superior chapter to the first draft effort.
Jevaughn Brown (@Jevaughn_Brown) says:
Yeah, I thought I loved the first version of this chapter but this one is even more enjoyable and smooth. Probably more realistic too.
Now I'm on to the next one like Jay-Z…
pkgesic says:
I'm reading this through in one go, as a new convert, and, if I hadn't seen chapter 15 somewhere or other, I would have stopped at the end of the first draft. Which means I wouldn't be reading this now.
It might be an idea to point up the newer chapters where they diverge from the first draft for late-comers like me. I'm invested, so I looked (and I'm familiar with rewriting on the fly :grin; ) but others might not be.
Oh and it is better than the first draft, more fluid, and you've dealt with my 'crusader' worries too.
veilwar says:
Looks like I need to fix some links – sorry about the confusion. It should read straight through with the newest versions.
Thanks for the heads up.
It was only one link – at the end of Part Eight – that leads you down the path of the older material – fixed, now so that it leads straight to the current versions.


Uliyannur Sree Mahadeva Temple is also known as Uliyannur Madathilappan Mahadeva Temple and is located at the bank of Periyar River, at Uliyannur village in the Aluva Taluk of Ernakulam District. The Uliyannur Sree Mahadeva Temple was designed and constructed by the well known architect Sri Uliyannur Perumthachan.
The old temple consecrated by Parasurama in BC 525 can be seen at a distance of about 20 metres. Lord Shiva's idol faces the east and the Periyar River and a big statue of Nandi faces the west. The idol of Goddess Parvati also faces towards the west and Annapoorneshwari is the secondary deity here.

Violence has become a prominent part of too many children's lives. The problem of child abuse and neglect has risen to an epidemic proportion in this country. Newspaper headlines detail the tragic consequences that impact many children who suffer abuse and neglect, and who becomes part of a foster care system often too overburdened to take timely and effective action. Crushing caseloads and limited budgets often stand in the way of child-centered and proactive intervention.
Lawyers for Children America trains and provides ongoing support to attorneys who have committed themselves to providing pro bono representation to children in the abuse and neglect system. These attorneys serve as unyielding legal advocates, ensuring that necessary services are accessed for the child and family, minimizing the upheaval and trauma typically associated with foster care, and working toward finding a safe and permanent home for the child. The ongoing training and support that Lawyers for Children America provides enables volunteer attorneys to address the multiple needs of children such as medical and dental, special education, emotional and enrichment in a comprehensive manner.
Recognizing that effective legal advocacy for children requires knowledge of developmental, maturational and psychological principles, Lawyers for Children America and the Yale Child Study Center (Connecticut) have established a partnership that enriches and informs the work of child advocates by providing a comprehensive core training curriculum and clinical case consultation. Lawyers for Children America has also worked with Children's National Medical Center (Washington, D.C.) and Children's Psychiatric Center (Miami) to supplement Yale's work with Lawyers for Children America. These partnerships enable volunteer attorneys to "red flag" mental health issues, identify the type of service needed and help to access that service in the community.
After case assignment, volunteers meet regularly with Lawyers for Children America staff to discuss issues and to plan how best to move the case forward. The goal is to assess each child's needs in a holistic, comprehensive way, which includes an examination of medical, mental health, educational, emotional, and legal needs. During this period of state intervention, the attorneys also seek to minimize further trauma including multiple foster care placements, inadequate mental health services, multiple interviews, or separation from siblings. Lawyers for Children America volunteers take the time to build a relationship with the child to ensure that they understand their client's needs and interests and to give the child a voice in decision-making to the greatest extent possible. The case summaries presented below illustrate how Lawyers for Children America volunteers have made a significant difference in the lives of the children they represent.

Le marché de Château-Thierry
Léon-Augustin Lhermitte
Full size image Download image Print page
In 1888 Lhermitte made a series of illustrations for a book called La Vie Rustique, written by André Theuriet. In the introduction the author wrote: "We propose to trace the grand acts of the rustic drama: the soaring, the labour, the hay-making, the harvest, and the vintage; we wanted to describe the solitude of the farm, the business of the village life, the pleasures of Sunday, and the preoccupations of the weekdays [...]." In a few words this text indicates exactly the position of Léon Lhermitte in French art of the late 19th century. He did not belong to the vulgarised post-romantic movement of artists who supplied cliché images of rural life in Europe in an endless repetition of all too familiar themes. On the other hand, he was also not a member of the artistic avant-garde. He refused to be considered a naturaliste, a realist painter whose work could be associated with noisy revolutionaries such as Gustave Courbet.
In the year 1879 in which he painted The Market of Château-Thierry, Degas invited him to participate in the Impressionist show of that year, but Lhermitte refused. Vincent van Gogh wrote from The Hague to his brother Theo in Paris that he would love to see a Lhermitte. He said that Lhermitte's secret was nothing else but his profound knowledge of the human figure, but especially of the robust, severe workman type, and that he grasped his motives from the heart of the people. In another letter Van Gogh compared Lhermitte with Rembrandt because of his mastery and his excellent modelling. Lhermitte's works were exhibited at the Secession exhibitions in Munich with Liebermann and Von Uhde in Vienna; they were reproduced in outstanding magazines such as Ver Sacrum of which Joseph Hoffmann, Kolo Moser and Gustav Klimt were editors.
Lhermitte had a special predilection for market scenes; they occur frequently in his oeuvre. In 1876 he painted The Fish Market at Saint-Malo; in 1877 The Apple Market at Landerneau (now in the Philadelphia Museum of Art), and in the same year The Market at Ploudalmézeau (now in the Victoria and Albert Museum, London). In 1878 followed Fish Sellers at Saint-Malo (now in the Tweed Gallery, University of Minnesota, Duluth), and his most prestigious market scene was made for the new Hôtel de Ville in Paris, Les Halles (now in the dépôt d'Ivry of the Musée du Petit Palais). Around 1895, he also made drawings of the markets of Villeneauxe and Nuremberg. He repeated the theme of the market of Château-Thierry in some fusain drawings in which he showed the market square from different angles, sometimes even from a higher point of view. All these variations were made after the painting. His place was between Millet and The Hague School, between Jozef Israëls and Anton Mauve. In 1909 he participated in an exhibition in London, in the French Gallery together with Harpignies, Israëls and Jacob Maris. Edward Strange wrote on that occasion: "From the technical point of view, his great strength lies on his drawing-a matter of some importance in an age of paint."
Lhermitte gives a wonderful picture of every day life in the French countryside: a young lady supervises critically her purchase of vegetables in the company of her child, carried by a nurse and her cook, who carries a basket and a bucket for milk or cream. The cheese vendor on the right has some time to spare to chat with a woman selling cabbages; halfway through the square we discover another elegant lady with a parasol, and an old gentleman admiring a potted plant. He might well be the village notaire, or even the burgomaster. Lhermitte does not dazzle his audience with a bright virtuoso; he quietly observes his subject and he brings his keen observations together into a scene in which profound humanity prevails.

First US House Built with Hemp Completed
by admin | Sep 29, 2010 | Archives
(CANVAS STAFF REPORTS) – The first house made out of hemp has been built in the United States, filling what advocates say is a need for more green building materials.
USA Today reported the home was completed this summer in Asheville, N.C., and two more are in the works. While such homes have been built over the past two decades in Europe, Hemp Technologies co-founder David Madera told the newspaper that they are new to the United States.
The building material Hemcrete had to be imported because hemp comes from the same plant as marijuana, which is illegal to grow in the United States. Inhabitat.com said Hemcrete is made from hemp, lime and water and can be used for a variety of applications including wall and flooring construction and roof insulation.
The 3,400-square-foot Push House, designed and built by Anthony Brenner, also has interior walls made from recycled paper. Inhabitat said another feature is 30 window frames that have been salvaged and fitted with high tech glass, placed in such a way that the most daylight can enter without overheating the house.
Madera, whose company supplied the hemp stalks, lime and water mixture, said the hemp-filled walls are non-toxic, mildew-resistant, pest-free and flame-resistant.
The website Green Building Elements said the home costs about $100 a month to heat and cool. Former Asheville mayor Russ Martin and his wife, Karon Korp, own the home and told the Huffington Post that it cost $130 per square foot to build. That includes the cost of importing the hemp.
Such homes reflect people's increasing desire to make homes both energy-efficient and healthy. Brenner told USA Today that he started searching for non-toxic materials because he wants to build a health-friendly home for his daughter, who suffers from a rare genetic disorder that makes her sensitive to chemicals and prone to seizures if she is around anything synthetic.
The newspaper said the second hemp house in Asheville is expected to be finished in about six weeks. Builder Clarke Snell told USA Today that he expects it to meet Passive House Institute standards that call for homes to use up to 90 percent less energy than traditional houses.

Focus: 50th Anniversary Tour & Support (Epic Studios, Norwich)
With their unique brand of progressive rock, Focus manifested themselves at the start of the '70s as the most successful and appreciated of all the Dutch pop-rock exports. Fronted by founding member Thijs Van Leer, and best known for their hits "Hocus Pocus", "House of The King" and "Sylvia", as well as critically acclaimed albums 'Moving Waves', 'Focus 3' and 'Hamburger Concerto', the iconic Dutch music masters are back with their tenth album, which is guaranteed to please their legions of fans!
After a comeback in the early 2000's, which resulted in the well-received albums 'Focus 8' and 'Focus 9', the band regrouped with a fantastic new line-up. Along with Thijs van Leer on vocals, flute and keyboards, back on the drums is famed Focus drummer Pierre van der Linden, who joined the group on their second album 'Moving Waves' in 1972. Internationally renowned for his rhythmic skills, Pierre remains a defining factor in the Focus sound. Guitarist Menno Gootjes, who participated in Focus at an earlier stage, and acclaimed bass player Udo Pannekeet, complete the band's current line-up. Recently, Focus's biggest hit "Hocus Pocus" was used in a 4-minute Nike commercial before the World Cup broadcast. Focus music can be regularly heard on Top Gear and Saxondale on TV in the UK.
A new Focus era has arrived! There is a rejuvenated passion amongst the band as it enters the studio to record Focus 11 and prepares to go out on the road again for a World Tour, in support of the new album, and as it builds up to its 50th Anniversary.

Q: Spring : how to expose SimpMessagingTemplate bean to root context ? I'm developing a Java webapp with Spring as the main framework (Spring core, Spring mvc, Spring security, Spring data, Spring websocket are notably used).
Declaring a message-broker in a Spring context like this provides a SimpMessagingTemplate bean to the context :
<websocket:message-broker>
    <websocket:stomp-endpoint path="/stomp">
        <websocket:sockjs/>
    </websocket:stomp-endpoint>
    <websocket:simple-broker prefix="/topic,/queue"/>
</websocket:message-broker>

I have to put this tag in dispatcher-servlet.xml (not applicationContext.xml), otherwise clients will get a 404 when trying to connect to the websocket (on initial page load).
However, since this tag which provides the SimpMessagingTemplate bean (to send messages to connected clients) is not available in the root context, when a service (scanned by the root context) sends a websocket message, the SimpMessagingTemplate bean cannot be autowired (classical NoSuchBeanDefinitionException).
Previously, the <websocket:message-broker> tag was in applicationContext.xml and dispatcher-servlet.xml was importing applicationContext.xml and everything was working fine - however I found out to my surprise that this was wrong when I recently used a SessionRegistry to modify arbitrary user sessions.
Indeed, since the DispatcherServlet was explicitely importing the root context, which is already inherited implicitely, the SessionRegistry bean was created twice, leading to unexpected behaviours (there are several posts on SO that depict this common mistake, usually users want to get a list of all principals but get empty lists due to the SessionRegistry bean duplication and find out about this).
So to fix this I removed the
<import resource="applicationContext.xml"/>

from the dispatcher-servlet.xml, but since then :

*

*either I put the <websocket:messagebroker>...</> tag in the dispatcher-servlet.xml, in which case connections to websocket are successful but services cannot autowire SimpMessagingTemplate

*or I put the <websocket:messagebroker>...</> tag in applicationContext.xml, in which case clients cannot connect to websocket.

*(or I go back to the previous version, where DispatcherServlet imports ApplicationContext, which breaks SessionRegistry - nope)

What is the solution to this probably rather common problem ? The DispatcherServlet can access beans from the root context but not vice-versa, so how should I work this out ?

A: I found a dirty solution. I don't like it, but given the lack of answers on SO (see also : Dispatcher-servlet cannot map to websocket requests ), as well as from current and former colleagues, I had to go forward with the project and implemented a dirty fix.
The dirty fix is to Autowire the SimpMessagingTemplate in Controller and Scheduled classes (all scanned by the dispatcher-servlet, where the websocket tag is declared), and to pass the SimpMessagingTemplate as a parameter to service methods (declared in the root context).
This solution is not transparent (the SimpMessagingTemplate should be autowired directly in services ideally) but it definitely fixes the problem.

Mr. Joseph "Pat" Graham
May 6, 1937 - February 14, 2017
Second Service Announcement for Mr. Joseph Graham of High River, Alberta passed away peacefully at the Vulcan Extendicare on February 14th, 2017 at the age of 79 years. Joseph is survived by his loving wife Ruthella; children Colleen (Nick) Lafleur of Sooke, BC, Christine Shade of Victoria, BC, Roger Graham of Calgary, AB, Kipling (Louise) Cooper of Nepean, ON, Kristl Costain of Calgary, AB; grandchildren Shane, Dylan, Mirren, Ian, Evan, Allison, Mary, Jessica, Kathryn, Noah and Rachel; brothers Campbell (Nancy) Graham of Bangor, N. Ireland, Paul (Becky) Graham of Calgary, AB and sister Bea (Allan) Crance of Calgary, AB as well as numerous nieces, nephews and cousins. Joseph was predeceased by his parents Ernie and May Graham; brother Ernie Graham, nephew Karl Graham and his first wife Marilyn Graham. Joseph Graham was born in Belfast Northern Ireland where he lived, and survived the many sights, sounds and results of WW2, which no doubt contributed to his love for all things military. After finishing his schooling he began an Apprenticeship in Carpentry, (which he completed in Canada), until emigrating in 1955 with his parents and 2 younger siblings to Canada landing in Calgary. He joined the Canadian Navy and serving 1956 - 61 while based in Esquimalt BC. Because of his Irish heritage, he was called Paddy or Pat, a nickname which followed throughout his career in the Navy and the Fire Service. Following his discharge he joined the Victoria Fire Department first as an investigator, gaining expert witness status in Arson Investigation, then promoted to Deputy Chief (1980). It was at this time he met and married his loving wife, Ruthella (Donnelly/Cooper) who has been blessed to share his dreams and schemes, his tender concern for those who are in pain and struggling and those who want to learn. During all his working life he continued to learn through courses, classes, experiential training in larger Fire Departments and extensive reading. He became a Mason with membership in Goldstream Lodge 161 which he maintained until the time of his death. Joseph retired in 1987 and moved with Ruthella to build a farm in the foothills of Alberta near Cochrane. A quarter section of bare native sod became his dream building site where he exercised his ingenuity, skill, and love of hard work to the limits. Horses, sheep, cats, dogs, chickens etc. all found a home on Hawk's Hill Farm. It only took 6 months for him to miss the challenge and rewards of the fire service and he returned to work as Chief of Rockyview County. Developing links, inspiring young men and women, convincing local governments and other fire departments of the necessity and the rewards of cooperation, professionalism and investment in fire protection as well as suppression were his strengths. AFCA, Fire Etc. all benefited from his insight and leadership. Following retirement from Rockyview in 2001 he immediately was requested by Department Municipal Affairs to review and advise regarding the Office of the Fire Commissioner. He produced a study report and recommendations in 3 months and ultimately became Fire Commissioner 2001 -2006, his dream job. He continued to do contract work until 2009 when he experienced his first illness. The farm was sold and he moved with Ruthella to 'REALLY RETIRE" in High River. The welcoming community and new friends along with his life time Faith and family have sustained him as the rare disease PSP (Progressive Supranuclear Palsy) gradually increased his limitations and ultimately led to his death. Pat was instrumental in building the OFC as it exists today. He was a champion of the Alberta Fire Service and the creator of the Alberta Emergency Services Medal program. Over 7900 of those medals have now been awarded. He also initiated the Fire Service Advisory Committee allowing fire service representatives direct access to his office and the Ministry of Municipal Affairs. His efforts continue to guide the fire service and he will always be remembered as one of our great Fire Commissioners. Joseph was devoted to his children and proud of their achievements. He was a supportive Scout Leader, loved Scottish Dancing Classes, making toys, boats and planes, playing soccer and fixing anything made of wood. He enjoyed music, sang in church choir, loved the bagpipes trail riding on horseback and valued education for himself and others. An avid outdoorsman who loved hiking, mountain climbing, canoeing, jogging and marathon running winning a silver medal for second in class (over 50) at the World Police/Fire Games held in Calgary. A caring heart sensed those who were struggling or hurting and would come along side or recruit others to assist. (Started Critical Stress debriefing with his teams before it was in vogue). A loving husband who demonstrated caring in everything he did. Enjoyed trips to the UK, tracking down epitaphs of distant relatives and revisiting special places he knew as a boy. His wife, 5 adult children and 11 grandchildren along with those we call "our kids" and their kids that called him Uncle Joe or Grandpa or 'Dad' or friend are profoundly grateful for the years we had to share his big heart, wisdom, work ethic and gentle spirit. Grateful thanks to the many Doctors and Health Care workers who shared these past 6 years with us. Especially Dr. James Silvius; staff in High River Hospital Emergency, and Unit 300; Janet McKirby private caregiver for the past 2 years and the wonderful caring, competence of all at Extendicare Vulcan who provided a haven for both of us during his last month on this earth. Joseph spent 34 years in Fire Service as the Alberta Fire Comissioner (Ret. 2007), Fire Chief Rockyview County, deputy Fire Chief Victoria, B.C. and as an investigator. Joseph was the recipient of 6 medals: Peace Keeping Medal, Queens Jubilee Medal, Alberta Exemplary Service medal and bar, B.C. Exemplary Service, Alberta Centennial Medal and the Emergency Services Alberta medal. He was a member of the Goldstream Masonic Lodge 161 since 1972, a Life member since 2002 of the Alberta Fire Chief's Association, Calgary Naval Veteran's Association-Corvette Club and the Naval Museum (Military Museums) Society. A Celebration of Joseph's Life was held on Thursday, February 23rd at 11:00 a.m. at the High River Christian Reformed Church. Caring for the family is Lyle Reeves Funerals of High River (403.652.4242).

The EAST AFRICA TRAVEL STUDY is one of Trinity Western University's most well-established international study programs. Starting in 2004, Kenya became a popular destination. Over the years we have developed close relationships with all levels of government, giving us unique front-line exposure to institutional and grassroots development efforts.
While one day you may be sitting in a boardroom listening to a lecture on international development from the World Bank or the United Nations (Kenya), the next day you could be walking rural pathways as community leaders show you their current projects in technology or education (Rwanda), or micro-finance or food security (Uganda). And another day you might find yourself filming and documenting the success stories of vulnerable children and disadvantaged communities.
Shortly after arrival you will leave the capital city of Kigali, head northeast to Akagera National Park, and spend two nights in the game reserve. You will go on several savannah safaris. It will become a highlight of your life's adventures.
The capital is home to national organizations and NGOs focused on nation-building. People are technologically savvy and benefit from some of the world's most ingenious mobile phone innovations and new global connectivity. The most well-known historical site you will visit is the Kigale Genocide Memorial. In keeping with history and tradition, you will observe the spiral architecture of the landmark Kigale Convention Centre where you will be briefed about how Rwanda is taking a lead role in eco-tourism, agri-tourism, and information technologies.
A significant part of your travel study takes place in the rural hill country of Western Rwanda, south of Lake Victoria. From northwestern to southwestern Rwanda, along Lake Kivu, you will experience the daily rhythm of rural communities that are accessed by trails or canoes or kayaks. You will participate in agro-tourism through days spent in tea and coffee plantations. You will learn about environmental and socio-economic issues and also about solutions through work of various NGOs.

Q: Oracle to PostgreSQL Migration Changed Data Capture We are currently migrating our application back end from Oracle to Postgres and my concern/query is that in case we face issues post migration, in a worst case scenario we may need to revert back to Oracle until the same is fixed to avoid major downtime. For that I want to take only the changed/modified data and then restore the same on Oracle.
I was looking into CDC tools like Debezium, but since I have HA Patroni+PostgreSQL (physical replication) already in place I'm not sure whether CDC could help me with my requirement.
Looking for some suggestions and inputs on how to perform this operation.


These 4 easy cupcake decorating ideas for kids aren't actually just for kids: they're perfect for anyone who wants to make an adorable cupcake but has never used a piping bag before! You don't need any cake decorating skills or tools at all to make these adorable treats that look almost too cute to eat!

Using black decorating gel to form eyes and nose on the chocolate kiss to finish off the face.
Using a kitchen shears, snip two thin slices off large marshmallow and pinch one end of each slice into an ear shape. Dip a sticky side of the "ears" into pink sugar crystals. Attach ears onto cupcake by pressing into frosting.
Fill a resealable plastic bag with additional white frosting and snip a hole in one corner. Squirt out frosting into two circle to form the rabbit's cheeks.

Use the black decorating gel to form the bear's nose.


Nothing does your head in more as a Londoner than living in a small town in Germany. It was in the late 1980s that I found myself as a foreign correspondent living in Bonn, the "capital village", as it was known before reunification.
My first culture shock came as I crossed the border from Belgium. When I presented my credit card for payment at a service station the attendant looked at me blankly, and asked: "What would I want with that?" I gradually got used to elderly folk peering through net curtains to see what I might be up to. The neighbourhood committee would leave notes on my car windscreen addressed to the "Dear Respected Neighbour", asking me ever so politely to clean my car as it was bringing down the reputation of the street. And the shops … spindly corner shops that were never open when office folk needed them.
This was the time when in Britain, everyone was aspiring to be Gordon Gekko, or so the myth went. Work hard, play hard, chop and change jobs and enjoy the high-octane lifestyle. How I envied my friends back home. I was convinced that, for all its Thatcherite ugliness and excess, there was something about the UK's gritty liveliness that would leave the stolid Germans behind. The economists tended to agree. Flexible labour markets and low unit labour costs were the future. Deregulation was essential. Financial services presented the path to paradise.
So what has changed? Everything and nothing. Not only did (West) Germany absorb the economically decrepit East in the 1990s, with far less inequity and far greater success than any other country could have achieved, but it has withstood the vagaries of the financial cycle with greater ease than the rest of Europe.
It has done so by changing practices gradually, such as pension reform and labour market reform … and a limited loosening of shopping hours. But it has not altered the postwar settlement that produced the first Wirtschaftswunder, the economic miracle. The German model is based on long-term planning and investment, not the get-rich-quick City culture that has been the norm in Britain and the US.
The president of the European Central Bank put it more diplomatically in a speech at Berlin's Humboldt university when he praised Germany for not basing its economic strategy on "cyclical, unsustainable factors". For that, read: not an economy that depends on a housing boom in order artificially to create wealth on the never-never.
Instead, the German – and broader northern European – approach emphasises vocational training and apprenticeships, particularly in engineering, manufacturing and the sciences. It invests in research and development, and in strong education. With all of the above the UK government would agree – even if its policies have for decades not followed the theory.
Where the Brits and the Germans spectacularly part company is over employment. "Works councils" have been the staple of German industry, with unions represented by statute. Both sides actively work towards consensus, and strikes and other disputes take place on the rare occasion where agreement is not reached. The first response to the banking crisis of 2008 was for the two sides to come together and work out a deal that included cuts in working hours, and cuts in pay – across the board. As a result unemployment rose only fractionally.
For Anglo-Saxon free-market diehards, these truths are difficult to take. They have resorted to denial and to aligning themselves with the puny flag-waving of the Europhobes, who were out in force in this week's rebellion against David Cameron, hardly an arch federast. On this morning's Today programme, Michael Gove talked about the UK taking back powers from the EU "in order to foster growth" – as if a little island mentality fosters prosperity. He made clear that European employment law was at the heart of British woes. That message might be more strident than that of Gordon Brown and his set when Labour were in government – but only in tone.
Now we are hoist with our own petard. Those free-spending, credit-bolstered years of bling are a distant memory. Cameron has learned one part of the lesson but not the other – the idea that successful economies depend on efficiency, for sure, but also on a buy-in from the broader community and a sense of fairness. That is not to say that Germany is a beacon of equality, or that their banks behaved like angels – far from it. But it is a matter of degree.
Behaviour is in part the product of systems and culture. German shareholder groups are ready to reward success but are far less tolerant of excess. Home ownership is regarded as a welcome step for people as they become older and establish themselves. It is not seen as a cash cow. And small and medium-sized businesses are seen as the engineer of growth, not an optional extra to the more "virile" financial services sector.
The Brits are beginning to get it, albeit late in the day. Nick Clegg, the deputy prime minister, has spoken of the need for diversification, for a realignment of the economy away from the City. Just how this is achieved, when banks refuse to lend, is not entirely clear. John Cridland, the director general of the CBI, has suggested the UK should seek to emulate the German approach to medium-sized enterprises. The trouble is, German firms established themselves long ago in competitive international markets. Britain's Johnny-Come-Latelys will struggle. They do already. Between 2000 and 2010, German exports to China were worth more than twice the value of Britain's.
Not all is gloom, and not all is straightforward. Many UK firms follow best practice, and I'm sure many German ones don't. After any amount of time in Germany, with its plethora of "socially aware" rules and regulations – the most annoying of which must surely be the obsessive refusal to jaywalk, even in relatively easy-going Berlin – I am eager to return to more anarchic and creative London life.
