Anglican Ordinariate converts express gratitude for Benedict XVI's 'prophetic' vision of unity
Mazur/cbcew.org.uk.
By Madeleine Teahan
London, England, Jan 4, 2023 / 07:30 am
A leading former Anglican bishop who converted to Catholicism has described Benedict XVI's famous initiative enabling Anglicans to convert to Catholicism as "prophetic."
Reflecting on the life and legacy of Pope Benedict XVI, Monsignor Michael Nazir-Ali, formerly the Anglican bishop of Rochester, told CNA in a phone call on Jan. 3 that the birth of the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham was a "prophetic step to take" because it provided those involved in ecumenical dialogue with "a concrete example of what unity could look like."
The Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham was established in 2011 by Pope Benedict XVI to allow Anglicans to enter into full communion with the Catholic Church while retaining much of their traditions and heritage.
Although the Ordinariate was still not fully developed, Pope Benedict's inspiration had offered a clear outline for future ecumenical endeavors, Nazir-Ali said.
Benedict inspired conversions
Nazir-Ali served as the 106th bishop of Rochester from 1994 to 2009. His reception into the Catholic Church in 2021 was widely reported due to his considerable contributions to religious, academic, and political discourse in the U.K. and beyond. He is now a priest of the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham.
In the year in which Nazir-Ali converted to Catholicism, three other Anglican bishops also did the same.
Nazir-Ali spoke about Benedict's "terrific" impact on his life, beyond the creation of the Ordinariate. "The reason I have been so influenced by him was his analysis of the cultural situation in Europe, which I think is beyond comparison because he saw that the absence of God was going to impoverish every aspect of European life, not just religion or spirituality, but culture, literature, and so on," he observed. "There was no one who understood this as well as he could."
An anniversary of conversion
Among those Anglicans who felt moved to embrace the vocation that the Ordinariate offered were 12 Anglican nuns who were received into the Catholic Church on Jan. 1, 2013.
The 12 were originally part of the Community of St. Mary the Virgin, based in Wantage Oxfordshire, but through their entrance into the Catholic Church under the patronage of the Ordinariate, they are now the Sisters of the Blessed Virgin Mary and reside in Birmingham, U.K.
In a statement on the community's website, issued following the death of Pope Benedict XVI, the sisters wrote: "We join with the rest of the Catholic world in prayer for the soul of Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, who died yesterday. May he rest in peace, 'good and faithful servant' that he was.
"On this day 10 years ago, on 1 January 2013, we were received into the full communion of the Catholic Church at the Oratory in Oxford. How many blessings and graces have flowed from that day! We thank God for them all."
Benedict understood the 'Anglican soul'
Father David Palmer is also a member of the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham and serves the Diocese of Nottingham in the U.K. He was received into the Catholic Church during the papacy of Pope Benedict XVI.
He told CNA in a statement on Jan. 3 that Benedict XVI's legacy in bringing Anglican patrimony into the Catholic Church was "inestimable" and that the late pope understood the "Anglican soul."
"Benedict seemed to just 'get' the English tradition. His love for St. John Henry Newman is well known, but more than this he seemed to understand the English tradition. Witnessing him at Westminster Abbey for evensong and again at Westminster Hall during the 2010 Papal Visit to the U.K., it was clear for all to see that he understood and appreciated the Anglican 'soul' or perhaps, more accurately, the historic English religious soul," Palmer said.
More in Europe
"He was able to recognize in the Anglican Church that which was beautiful, and indeed those bits that still reflected something of Catholic England," he continued.
"In England there has often been peddled the idea that Catholicism is somehow 'foreign'; Benedict reminded us that in reality England was a Catholic country, and even after the (so-called) Reformation, Anglicanism, at its best, remained shot through with Catholic sensibility," Palmer noted.
"The Ordinariate, so close to Benedict's heart, was a prophetic move, a realized ecumenism that says that those who become Catholic do not have to abandon all that went before, but rather all that is good and noble from their previous community can find its fulfillment in communion with the one holy Catholic and apostolic Church," he said. "In other words, there is nothing 'foreign' about Catholicism."
Reflecting further on the legacy of the late pope emeritus, Palmer said: "We no longer have Benedict alive on earth to be our 'protector' (as it were) but I have every confidence that he will be interceding for us in heaven, alongside St. John Henry Newman.
"We in the Ordinariate are deeply grateful for all that Benedict did to bring us home; we will miss him immensely — he was like a grandfather to us, and we entrust him to the maternal arms of Our Lady of Walsingham, and her Son, the only name under heaven by which we can be saved."

President Joe Biden will not attend Benedict XVI's funeral
The Vatican's press office has confirmed that only two official state delegations — from Italy and Germany — were invited to the funeral of the late pope emeritus.
Pope Francis: Benedict XVI brought us to 'encounter with Jesus'
Pope Francis began his message Jan. 4 with a reference to his predecessor, Benedict XVI, who died on Dec. 31.
Bells to ring for Benedict XVI in all Catholic churches in Germany
The bells of all Catholic churches of the 27 dioceses of Germany are expected to toll at 11 a.m. (local time) on Jan 5. to pay respect for the late pontiff.

Q: XCode 7.2 unable to view memory profiling info / Device is offline in instruments I'm running an iOS demo using an Objective C++ library (some .mm files) and would like to profile the app's memory usage with Instruments. However, I see that the debug tab does not show any memory information.

Attempting to profile the app in instruments shows my device, but it is grayed out and says it's offline

How can I fix my XCode to allow for memory debugging/profiling of that project? Does it have something to do with using an Objective C++ libraries?

A: You can check whether your project's Zombie Objects are enabled.
Open:

Product -> Scheme -> Edit scheme -> run-Diagnostics -> Enable Zombie Objects

If open please close then run.

EDIT: The issue is twofold, the "unable to profile on device is an iOS 9.x.x bug, here's a support thread: https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/16242 . Here are the steps one of the posters suggested:

*

*Power down the device completely.

*Unplug the device from your Mac.

*Close Xcode and Instruments.

*Restart the device & plug it back in
once it has restarted.

*Re-launch Xcode.

*Here, my device was disabled
and Xcode indicated that the device was not available for use.

*Clean,

Is there such a thing as an unknown civilian?
I was in Dublin last month as 82 governments came together to sign the Explosive Weapons in Populated Areas political declaration.
To start the day I took part in a moving ceremony unveiling the Memorial to the Unknown Civilian in the grounds of Dublin Castle, organised by the incredible folks at Humanity and Inclusion and INEW.
In the early morning sunshine it was a moment to pause. To reflect. To think of the thousands of civilians who have needlessly lost their lives in conflicts they weren't even fighting.
At the ceremony, the UN High Representative for Disarmament Affairs Izumi Nakamitsu said something which I've thought of many times since:
"But they were not unknown. Remember that they all have a name. Known by those who love them".
IZUMI NAKAMITSU
It's such a simple, elegant and obvious observation.
There really is no such thing as an unknown civilian. Each of these people were of course known:
To their families.
To their friends.
To their classmates.
Indeed, the idea of the unknown has become so familiar to many of us. I would argue too familiar.
Here in the UK, we have the Grave of the Unknown Warrior – or Tomb of the Unknown Soldier to some – which plays a role in our national remembrance each November.
Yet increasingly, I've come to think of the unknown as less rightful acknowledgement and more admission of failure.
A failure of power. Of politics. Of priorities.
A failure to respect those people killed, to ensure their dignity, and uphold rights of those they leave behind. There's a hint even of 'inevitable' collateral damage with its whisper of acceptability.
And this failure continues today.
Despite our huge leaps in forensic science and other ingenious ways to identify people, thousands of people are killed in conflicts every year who stay unrecorded. Nameless.
This is a collective failure.
That's why I – and all of us at Every Casualty – are passionate about our mission to make sure every person killed by armed violence is recorded and remembered.
As the person they were – with a name, with people they loved, and who loved them back.
The time has surely come to end the unknown.

Everton's John Stones turns from apprentice to master for Blues youngsters
Centre-back reveals growing maturity by assuming mentor role
Phil KirkbrideEverton FC Correspondent
John Stones has been helping Everton's emerging stars make the step up to the first team
As another new Everton era begins after the sacking of Rafa Benitez, sign up for the Blues email bulletin for all the latest news on the next manager
John Stones has revealed his growing maturity after becoming a mentor to Everton's emerging players.
The Blues have handed Premier League debuts to Callum Connolly, Tom Davies and Matthew Pennington recently and Stones has been helping them make the next step up.
Stones made his senior debut for Everton in August 2013 but with Phil Jagielka out injured and Ramiro Funes Mori suspended, the 21-year-old has been forced to adopt the role of experienced head at the back.
And the England international has enjoyed passing on advice.
"I was over the moon for them," Stones said of Connolly and Davies' debuts.
Phil Jagielka insists Everton intent on restoring battered reputations
Everton hero Duncan Ferguson pays visit to Zoe's Place to hand over £10,000 car
Champions Leicester City should annoy Everton - and eliminate any excuse for poor season
Is Everton's Phil Jagielka about to miss out on another tournament for England?
"When Callum and Tom came on, I was just telling them to relax and play their game because they deserve to be there and that's why they were on the pitch.
"I know there will have been a few nerves; we've all been there, coming on for the first time.
"But as soon as they came on I thought they looked like they'd played a lot of games at that level, so credit to them.
"That's what I wanted to feel - I wanted that advice off an experienced pro when I first got on the pitch, so I took that and gave them the advice that was short and simple really.
Matthew Pennington made his Premier League debut for Everton at centre-back alongside John Stones on Saturday
"They don't want to be hearing too much off everyone and a few simple words can calm nerves.
"I hope I did that."
Everton will be without Jagielka and Funes Mori again for this weekend's trip to newly-crowned champions Leicester City at the King Power Stadium.
Stones is likely to line-up alongside Pennington, who was named man of the match in Saturday's win over Bournemouth.
Phil Jagielka


Organised by individual campaigners alongside various groups including Global Justice Now, Campaign Against Climate Change, Stop TTIP (Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership) and Friends of the Earth, to name a few, the event was called ahead of the Paris climate talks and 'The People's March for Climate, Justice and Jobs' on the 29th November in London. Organisers emphasised the continued need to build support and solidarity for the movement.
Next to take to the stage was Kate Pickett, co-author of the influential book 'The Spirit Level'. Pickett focused on the social and psychological impacts of capitalism, she talked about the importance of resolving inequality and the affect it has on all our lives. "A lot of people are suffering, outward wealth reflects inner worth. People need to understand we can build a sustainable society without losing any quality of life." In dealing with these issues Pickett advocated the need for stronger communities, trade unions, more employee owned institutions and cooperatives. "Societies that work for the common good are more compassionate," she added.
Workshops, including 'Inequality, Migration and Racism' which gave people a chance to find out more and discuss a range of topics in more detail, ran throughout the afternoon. The room then stood in solidarity with Ryedale, North Yorkshire who are currently engaged in a campaign against Barclays bank that owns 97% of Third Energy, the company who are planning on fracking across their community.
As the afternoon went on attendees heard from Chris Baugh, from the Public Commercial Services Union, who opened his talk with: "Solidarity is the most powerful weapon against those who would divide us." He scoffed at the self-proclaimed 'greenest government ever' who slashed subsides for wind and solar, cut funding to environmental agencies and who promote dirty energy such as fracking in protected areas.
All speakers echoed the importance of standing together, building a movement and how powerful we can be when united.
Stop TTIP MCR meets every 2nd and 4th Wednesday of the month at 7pm, usually in the UoM's Student Union on Oxford Road.
Global Justice Now will be holding a meeting on TTIP on Monday 2nd November 6.30pm at Methodist Central Hall.

Dorian Opera: No Secrets
Progressive rock and progressive metal collide on the debut from Germany's Dorian Opera, titled No Secrets. Citing influences like Dream Theater, Symphony X, Yes, Rush, ELP, and Marillion, you can probably imagine that you'll be in store for plenty of bombast here. Comprised of Oliver Weislogel (guitar), Joe Eisenburger (bass, vocals), Andrew Roussak (keyboards, backing vocals) and Harry Reischmann (drums), all of whom had played together in various bands around South Germany, Dorian Opera put forth an energetic style centered around wild guitar and keyboard solos, plenty of melody, and tight arrangements.
The opening instrumental "Ouverture" start things off in grand fashion, a symphonic powerhouse of a piece littered with Roussak's melodic synths and Weislogel's stabbing guitar work. The band lurches into progressive metal territory on the intricate "Sacrifice", and gets even heavier on the catchy yet angry "Tell Me Your Lies", a real winner of a track featuring memorable vocal melodies, crushing guitar riffs, and pulsating keyboard lines. With lyrics packed with venom, this is one of the CD's highlights. Raging organ and crunchy guitar kick off "Dead Or Alive", a song about a man framed for the murder of his friend, and the band returns to symphonic instrumental prog on the excellent title track. This one shows the true dexterity of guitarist Weislogel, as he rips into one legato line after another. "Little Lies" will remind of Dream Theater, right down to Roussak's synth tones, a heavy tune with plenty of orchestral elements and just the right amount of atmosphere. Gorgeous prog can be heard on the pastoral "Fly With Me", featuring lovely vocal melodies, acoustic guitars, and a variety of medieval tones from Roussak, giving this one a sort of Blackmore's Night meets The Strawbs feel. "One Of These Days" has more of a power metal/hard rock flavor, complete with some virtuoso guitar & keyboard solos, and "Truly Yours" is a slower, grinding metal number, Reischmann's plodding drum work rocking the house underneath the immense power chords from Weislogel. Again, the influence of Dream Theater is all over "She", another highlight here, featuring plenty of tasty guitar and keyboard solos, and the album ends with the ripping instrumental "L'Estate - Presto", much like it began.
There's a lot to like here on No Secrets, so much so that you can overlook the somewhat lackluster production, which is on the muddy side. The band can obviously play the hell out of their instruments, and they are quite adept at writing powerful progressive rock songs. While bassist Eisenburger is an adequate singer, I'm wondering if Dorian Opera might be better suited with a full-time vocalist with better all-around range. It's not that Joe can't handle this material, but someone more capable of hitting the highs and lows might be a better fit behind the microphone. Regardless of these two minor quibbles, Dorian Opera have themselves a very solid and enjoyable prog rock/metal debut here, and I think we are in store for some truly great things from this outfit in the years to come.

Qantas to resume A380 flying
Qantas is to resume A380 flying. (Andrew McLaughlin)
Qantas will resume limited Airbus A380 operations to Singapore and London from November 27 after what it calls an "intensive" inspection program for the aircraft's Rolls-Royce Trent 900 engines.
"Together with the engine and aircraft manufacturers and the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA), Qantas is now satisfied that it can begin reintroducing A380s to its international network progressively," the airline said in a November 23 statement.
Qantas says two of its A380 fleet, which it grounded following the November 4 uncontained failure of a Trent 900 on A380 VH-OQA operating QF32, will return to service this week. Both of these aircraft are currently in Los Angeles, and will be ferried to Sydney before entering service, with the first due to depart Los Angeles on 2300 local time on November 22. It will operate the first A380 service since the grounding, QF31 from Sydney to London via Singapore, on Saturday.
"The engines on this aircraft, the first aircraft to depart, two of the engines are new engines to the aircraft," Qantas CEO Alan Joyce said. "So we have replaced the engines and put these new engines onto the aircraft. We have also put in additional conditions and restrictions that Qantas is applying."
Continues Qantas's statement, "In line with its conservative approach to operational safety, Qantas is voluntarily suspending A380 services on routes that regularly require use of maximum certified engine thrust and will do so until further operational experience is gained or possible additional changes are made to engines." This means the airline will not resume trans Pacific service to Los Angeles for an as yet undetermined period of time.
"We want to make sure that we're 100 per cent sure of the aircraft before we put them on the LA route, which requires this extra use of thrust," Joyce said.
According to Qantas, "This is an operational decision by Qantas and pilots still have access to maximum certified thrust if they require it during flight. It is not a manufacturer's directive."
CASA says that Qantas submitted to it a "detailed" A380 plan that sets out how the aircraft will be operated, additional safety measures and required inspections.
"The decision by Qantas to ground the A380 fleet after the Singapore incident on 4 November 2010 was correct and was supported by CASA," said CASA director of aviation safety John McCormick.
"Qantas provided CASA with extensive documentation to support the plan, as well as a number of briefings by key personnel. CASA has looked at how Qantas will be carrying out the additional inspections of the Trent 900 engines, changes to the way the engines will be operated and how Rolls Royce service bulletins will be met."
At the time of the QF32 incident Qantas had six A380s in service, and the airline says it now expects to take delivery of a further two A380s before the end of 2010 and a further two in early 2011.
VH-OQA remains in Singapore as the ATSB's official investigations continue, and Qantas has not yet put a timeframe on when it can be repaired and returned to service, while, the airline says, "The remaining aircraft already in the fleet will be returned to service once Qantas, the manufacturers and regulators are completely satisfied that it is safe to do so."
But only four aircraft, two of them the new deliveries, are expected to be in service for the Christmas peak.

Through my practice of Zen Buddhism my art comes into being. Watching my breath, the work unfolds and becomes my meditation. In Zen there is no duality, no conflict between the natural element of chance and the human element of control. The process is all. There is no goal to be attained.
Beginning in spontaneity, always embracing the controlled accident, my paintings are formed naturally, not only representing nature but being a work of nature. With the absence of symmetry, balancing form with emptiness and knowing when enough is said, I move into psychic automatism expressing all that I am and all that I will be.

There are shops and a couple of taverns on the same street. The main town is about a 10 minute walk and has bars, supermarkets, souvenir shops, taverns, restaurants (micriacropolis is well wortha visit). Theres a great mini golf place too.
The theme nights are themed meals e.g. Indian, Chinese . You need to book as the fill up quick.
Do the rooms come with a kettle ? Are there tea and coffee facilities in the room ?

Electric burns are some of the most painful injuries you could ever face. Not only do these burns hurt as badly as burns with regular fire, but they also hurt much more because of the fact that the nerves are affected and/or destroyed. If you do not know much about the human nervous system, it relies on bioelectric impulses to carry messages to the brain. When the nerves are shocked by electricity, their messaging relays are interrupted and the burned nerves can only echo their pain. This could happen to you at any time, but when it does, note the details of the incident, and then call a personal injury lawyer.
Where Did the Electrical Burn Happen?
This is really important. You need to state where the accident happened. If it happened at work, your lawyer is ready to tell you that you need file with worker's comp via your HR office. If your claim is denied, then you can return to the lawyer to pursue compensation.
If the accident happened in the community, you need to sue the business or the owner of the property on which the accident occurred. In this case, you do not have to pursue an alternate case before filing a lawsuit. Your lawyer will explain to you the differences of filing various types of personal injury and accident lawsuits based on what happened to you and where the accident took place.
What Part of You Was Burned?
Electrical burns destroy enough tissue and nerves that you may never have any feeling in that area of your body again. Burning the hand you use to write with, brush your teeth with, comb/brush your hair with, or feed yourself with is a very big problem as you will have to relearn all of these things using the opposite hand or using the burned hand after weeks of physical therapy. Electrical burns to various other parts of the body produce similar problems. You can sue for compensation for all therapies and treatments that will help you regain the use of the burned body parts.
There are personal injuries as the result of criminal negligence. There are personal injuries as the result of freak accidents. If you and your lawyer can find out the "why" of the incident, it could really change how much compensation you may receive for your injuries, and whether or not you will continue to receive annual amounts of compensation going forward.


The battles of North Africa during World War II brought 93,000 Italian Prisoners of War to South Africa.
These men were stationed in Prisoner of War Camps throughout the country. About 1,500 of these prisoners were transported to a camp on the farm Keerweder in the Klein Drakenstein Valley, at the foot of the Du Toit's Kloof Pass.
Their task was was to build the pass through those mountains.
Read more about the building of Du-Toits-Kloof Pass here.
The first Italian Prisoners of War arrived in 1942, remaining there for the duration of the war. During this time they came into contact with the local farming community where they were employed as farm labourers, builders, chefs, gardeners, mechanics and various other tasks in Paarl , Worcester and Robertson area.
The friendships that they established with the South African Community was to be a very long and lasting one, many of them returning after the war ended taking up permanent residence in the country, visiting farms where they were employed, and the families they had met and lived with.
They themselves became members of the family at these places, and not treated as the enemy in labour, or like slaves.
Young Hermanus le Roux had lived on a farm near the P.O.W. camp, and from the very beginning made frequent visits to the P.O.W.
When the Italians came up with the idea of the cross on top of Hugeneot Peak, he made a promise, that there would always be a cross on the top of Huguenot Peak. The first cross was made by the surveyor Tanguara. He and three fellow prisoners manhandled the heavy seven meter wooden structure up the steep slopes.
First they had to negotiate the Miaspoort gully to reach a ridge behind the mountain. Then they had to climb to the summit, where they planted their cross. Four metal guys held it in place. This original crass lasted for 10 years, afterwhich the gale force winds and snow in winter followed by the heat of summer, by the south-easter, won the battle of the summit. The cross collapsed. First the portion above the crossbar broke away.
Hermanus true to his word repaired the cross and gave it a coat of fresh paint; but that was not enough. The entire structure came down during a storm. A new cross, covered with a metal plate and protected tar was made by Hermanus. It took six men and seven hours to get the 80kilogram memorial cross to the top of the mountain. This cross was to last 15 years on the exposed summit before it too collapsed. A few more attempts followed by local farmers by placing other crosses on top of the mountain. These too did not last long.
In 1984 it was finely decided to place a aluminium cross on top of the mountain, that would withstand the ravages of time.
Farmers, local culture organizations, the Italian Community, and many well ment members of the public started to collect funds for the project. Finally the cross was completed as stands to-day on the top of Huguenot Heights, recognised for the bound of remembering friendship it represents, in this rather unstable world of to-day.
The Cross is a reminder as well that enemies can overcome bitterness, and that good will can be far more enduring.
So if you are in the Paarl Valley and happen to be there at a particular time of the day, at a particular part of the season, and if the sun is shiningbrightly, you might be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of bright light shining from the very top of the Hugeneot mountain peak.
If you should ever see the cross, stop for a few moments and give thought to the men who laboured on the pass and the remarkable friendship that transcends the barriers created by war.

Bus drivers working for subcontractors to PostBus, the iconic bus service run by a subsidiary of the Swiss post office, demanded higher pay in a protest rally in Bern on Sunday.
Drivers arrived at the Swiss capital in yellow coaches from all over Switzerland to decry what they termed wage discrimination.
Employees of private companies contracted to provide services for PostBus say they should receive the same pay as drivers working directly for the state-owned post office.
"The post office must now prove that it is a socially responsible employer," said Reto Rosselli, a driver from Ticino said in a statement issued by the group.
"It is inadmissible that PostBus allocates concessionaire routes to subcontractors and that it demands contractually that these (companies) hire drivers under conditions that are worse than those of (PostBus)," Rosselli said.
The drivers placed a chair symbolically in front of SwissPost's headquarters in Bern, the ATS news agency reported.
The chair is to remind Daniel Landolf, the head of PostBus, that he can no longer turn a "deaf ear" to the legitimate demands of the drivers, the group said.
Landolf did not immediately respond.
Meanwhile, 20Minutes reported online that PostBus is severing a contract at the end of this year with its biggest subcontractor, a company that operates 50 buses in the canton of Vaud.
The Société des auto-transports du Pied du Jura vaudois (SAPJV) operates buses for schools and local transport.
But PostBus, which owns a third of the company, has decided to provide the service differently, 20Minutes said.
That is putting the future of 60 drivers for SAPJV in question.
The Mayor of Cossonay, a community served by the bus service, resigned as chairman of SAPJV, complaining that PostBus (known in French as CarPostal), was trying to kill the company, 20MInutes reported.
PostBus for its part said SAPJV's services had become "unsatisfactory and too expensive", the news site said.
According to SAPJV, however, it was not being paid sufficiently for the services demanded.
After the company sought an advance of 30,000 francs last year, PostBus decided to terminate the contract, 20 Minutes said.
PostBus Switzerland directly or indirectly operates around 800 bus routes with more than 2,100 buses in Switzerland, carrying more than 120 million passengers a year.

Katzine: The Eagle Issue back
It's become tradition to kick off any KATZINE review with a declaration of adoration when it comes to the covers and production values.
KATZINE #1
I did it over and over again - and why wouldn't I? Because look!
(Okay, not so much with #4, but only because I failed to find time to write anything at all - I can assure you I read it with relish!)
These are no chapbooks - cheap affairs knocked out for maximum accessibility in t'olden days - but amongst the most luxurious mini-comics of all time with the most sensuous pencils printed on warm, fine-grained paper stock with even thicker card covers.
Speaking of covers, wait until you open this one up for the Eagle-fish interface endpapers! Such balletic grace and beauty!
Truly this is the EAGLE ISSUE, Chapman wisely now eschewing enumeration in favour of theme or content on account of readers believing they needed to buy the lot and read in a specific order. You do need to buy the lot - obviously - but you don't. Each autobiographical outing is completely self-contained with episodes from any era of Chapman's adventurous life.
Don't mistake introversion for agoraphobia or indeed self-absorption. Katriona has travelled widely both in Britain and abroad and has much to impart to those eager to listen and learn, rendered in a way which perfectly captures the spirit of place. You might as well be travelling with her.
Regular features return this issue - 'Local Business', 'Fear' and 'Love' along with a botanical page - but there's also a break for Katriona to explain to the uninitiated from personal experience what being shy does and does not involve. Like Allie Brosh's HYPERBOLE AND A HALF, this is done solely to promote greater understanding of the misunderstood, and extroverts would be well advised to take a moment out of their convivial lives to take note of the Energy Bucket. These are no melodramatic, egomaniacal, attention-seeking vapidities or woe-is-me wailings, but considered reflections on life.
The most thrilling feature this issue involves the titular eagle in which Chapman displays a masterful comprehension of both story building and narrative cohesion in comics. It's a thrilling four-page encounter on an uninhabited island whose own rugged contours form the adventure's background, rising then falling over the twin, double-page spreads as Chapman herself explores upwards to her spell-binding sighting in the sky before returning to her more sedentary mother below to witness the puffins they came for in the first place. The inset panels too reflect the semi-symmetrical nature of the narrative - the puffins first sighted far off then tantalisingly close.
All of which bodes wonderfully well for the extended graphic memoir which Chapman is now embarking upon and whose progress she intends to catalogue throughout future KATZINEs in her 'Graphic Novel Diary'. And if you think that bodes well, you should read her astute self-analysis in this issue's first instalment, about the considerable and rigorous editorial decisions necessary for moulding a gripping story out of potentially endless and so lifeless clay. Hint: you don't just slap everything you experience out on the page because then you're left with tales told by idiots, "full of sound and fury, signifying nothing."
Conversely, for thought-provoking, philosophical brilliance which has been so cleverly crafted - and rigorously arranged / edited, please see Eddie Campbell's ALEC OMNIBUS.


One of the greatest samurai that ever lived, Miyamoto Musashi, created a bunch of rules to live by. Born in 1584, he was a gifted swordsman and a famous warrior, his teachings are still being applied to this day. Take a look at these 15 rules for a happy and fulfilled life, according to his text, "The Way of Walking Alone".
Learn to accept the life you're given, it will definitely make you stronger. If you accept even the most difficult parts of your life, you will find freedom within. It's natural for stress, anxiety or despair to creep into our soul. But they shouldn't be held liable for the burden that is life.
Stop chasing down pleasure, you should enjoy it when it comes naturally. Musashi argues that we all should get by with the little we have and simply enjoy the moment. If we live life in the moment, we forget about the things we don't own or the things we obsess over.
It was this samurai's belief that everything in life happens for a reason so it's not good to dwell on the forgotten. The past is part of your journey, but it will never change.
We live in a society where we are taught to follow our heart and intuition, but the great samurai didn't feel the same. In his opinion, sometimes it's just better to stick to what you know for sure.
We have become so obsessed with our image, we now have all the resources at hand to turn into the biggest narcissists there are. Musashi warns us to not miss out on what's important because of our ego.
Musashi claims that complaining should have no place in our life. When complaining, you allow the past to give you a hard time in the present. We must learn to let go of the things gone wrong.
We shouldn't waste our time on this planet on lustful thoughts. Instead, we must all strive only for love and lasting relationships.
Don't follow the crowd, form your own opinions. Question everything around you, you will feed your curiosity and thus, your knowledge will take shape.
The Samurai claimed that the only way to live an honest and fulfilled life is to be true to yourself and live life as fairly as you know how to.
If you have fear of dying, you simply skip living life to the fullest. We should live each day like there's no tomorrow and never be scared of the consequences of our actions.
Well, we know that already. We don't really need a samurai calling out the money problem. We should never chase happiness in the form of possessions but instead embrace minimalism.
Desire only makes us want things we may never lay a finger on. Good things come when you live not wanting for more. Naturally.
Musashi thought jealousy was only a form of hatred and getting stuck in its grasp will damage you. The only way out is to be thankful for what you have.
Learn to let go. Lingering on a sad separation holds you back from moving on with your life.
If you keep your options wide open, you'll allow any new opportunities to worm their way into your life.
Let's make world a happier place, please pass this on!


The Indonesian Football League is a crazy place to work.
My second year working in Liga 1 is looking to build on the success of the first 12 months, during which we built a following of 1m across all social media inside 10 months from a standing start.
Back then FIFA's two-year ban on domestic and international Indonesian football because of "political interference" had only just ended. So it was a race against time to get the League up and running. Then it was a matter of sprinting to catch up some of the time that had been lost.
A couple of delays meant the current Liga 1 began in early March and will end in December. GO-JEK are now sole sponsors and all the famous foreigners from last year – Michael Essien, Peter Odemwingie, Momo Sissoko, Didier Zokora – have left. The most familiar names to arrive were Danny Guthrie at Mitra Kukar and Julien Faubert at Borneo FC.
The early season crowds were much higher as Persija Jakarta returned to the newly-renovated 65,000-capacity Gelora Bung Karno before vacating for the Asian Games. I was pitchside for the sell-outs against Bhayangkara and Arema in the opening weeks. Meanwhile, elsewhere in Java, the promotion of Persebaya, and their vociferous "Bonek" support, to the top flight meant regular 55,000 crowds by the "Green Force" in Surabaya.
This season my role is a little different. I am directly employed by the League (Liga Indonesia Baru or LIB). As ever, it is about developing the content strategy and growing social media reach and engagement. Then I hope I can bring best practice and know-how to the League digital properties thanks to my experience in the US and Europe.
However perhaps the most important part is visiting the clubs to deliver seminars on digital and social media acceleration. Persebaya, Borneo FC and Mitra Kukar were first on the list but there are many more to come. This is set to be a season of island-hopping and air miles, presentations and handshakes.
There are wide discrepancies in the digital capacity of Liga 1 clubs, Persib Bandung are the 20th biggest club in the world on social media but other teams have followings numbering a few thousand. Last year, one of the top-flight clubs did not have a Facebook page.
The same applies to the resources they have at their disposal. Persebaya share their office with the DBL (the country's high school basketball league). It looks like the HQ of a Silicon Valley behemoth and, in turn, their staff is overflowing with enthusiastic, digital-savvy millennials. For others, social media is lumped on the desk of an already overburdened press officer.
I have been learning some Bahasa but my talks will be English for now. My team consists of a small video production unit, we supplement our trips with shoots at practice to create timeless and pre-match content for LIB channels. Then there are game-day shoots.
Ideas are limited by time, lack of in-stadium equipment and, as this is new to them, the sometimes laissez-faire arrangements of clubs. Footballers are footballers wherever you go, so competitive games always work. Many ideas that we are all too familiar with in England have not been done in Indonesia so we are still working through this 'low hanging fruit'.
Culturally I have found the Indonesian sense of humour to be slapstick, hence the roaring success of Dizzy Penalties last season. Meanwhile, food content is not just a firm request from the sponsors, Indonesia (like the US but utterly unlike the UK) is obsessed with cuisine by and its infinite regional variations. Taste tests just never fail.
This approach won't win us awards or favour in the one-upmanship of Leagues elsewhere but it is bringing us engagement, a clear ROI for LIga1, value for our sponsors and is slowly shifting the culture of a league that has sometimes struggles with change. I'll take that for now.
The fans are a particular emphasis this season. The Indonesian supporters are perhaps the most passionate and dedicated I have ever experienced.
They travel vast distances and through many times zones to follow their clubs. Air travel in Indonesia is of a quality akin to my time crisscrossing the US with Colorado Rapids but the roads are shocking. In big cities, they are often choked by traffic, in more rural locations they can be potholed. But, by hook or by crook (and mostly by moped), the Indonesian fans get there. In one game this season, visiting fans caused a small issue by putting up their flags in the stadium FOUR days before the game.
Every team has drummers, every team has chant leaders (sometimes middle-aged, sometimes women in hajibs), every team choreographies and tifos. Loyalty, passion and devotion are badges of honour. All this is why a small band of in-the-know western tourists attend Indonesian games.
It is also why we'll be celebrating the fans' passions and telling their stories throughout the season.
The move from TVOne to Indosiar has seen TV ratings improve dramatically, with the final to the Praia President gaining almost a third of the viewing audience in pre-season.
In most countries, such a "warm-up" tournament would be preparatory if not downright casual. However, in Indonesia, it was so serious that Persija Jakarta and Bali United balanced their resources carefully through the AFC Cup, Indonesia's return to international club competition, whose early rounds were staged at the same time. As it turned out, the latter team failed to qualify from their group but the former went as far as the ASEAN zone semi-finals. An improvement in AFC competitions is surely on Indonesia's To-Do list.
Then there are more serious issues such as violence involving supporters: deaths in stadiums are lamentably regular but so are riots if the fans' see their team lose or they simply cannot get into a sold-out stadium. In addition, there is too little clarity over structural issues that seem "a given" in Europe. For example, moving teams in mid-season to play their home games in faraway cities will never seem normal to me. But it is accepted here.
Everyone overuses the word "potential" in regard to Indonesian football. With this much love for the game and this many people, it is no surprise. However, that very potential is both the reason for unbridled excitement and intense frustration when it goes unfulfilled.
If we are taking two steps forward and one back on a regular basis then I suppose it is still a net gain, albeit more slowly than we'd all like. But then success is always a bumpy, meandering path so, more often than not, it is the culture that dictates the speed of travel. In a wider sphere, we only have to look at the economies of Japan and Germany in the post-war years. Or, more recently, the approach of some Scandinavian countries to well-being among their population.
When I worked in US soccer, I felt more of a foreigner than I expected. Presumably, this was because I should have felt at home, the culture seemed familiar and I spoke the language. However, whenever I got comfortable there was the inevitable jolt of an important social, verbal or footballing misunderstanding. And, of course, there was little real desire on their part to learn from the outside.
In Indonesia, I feel less of a foreigner than I expected. This is partly because it is perhaps the friendliest country I have ever experienced. Not the fake Have-a-Nice-Day variety but genuine smiles and generosity from people who possess little themselves so they give you their concern. For that, one can forgive a lot.
A country's culture (sporting or otherwise) can only be fully understood by learning its history and its language while travelling and experiencing its people.
This will be the year I do that in Indonesia football.
* Thanks: To all the staff at Liga1, the Liga1 clubs and GO-JEK, who have been so kind and helpful.

Q: How to calculate the area within a circle that is closest to a point? First, some discourse on the problem motivation. I am building a model for estimating subway usage in big cities. For a set of subway stations mapped by their geo coordinates, I want to find out, for each station, the total area that is within 1 km of this subway station, and closer to this  subway station than any other.
For example, given this map centered on Downtown Crossing in Boston, I want to know the total area that is closer to Downtown Crossing than to State, Park Street, Chinatown, or South Station.
My algorithm is as follows. For each base station:

*

*Select all stations that are within 2 km, then find the midpoint of a line between them and the base station.

*Draw a chord on the 1km circle around the base station, that passes through each midpoint and is perpendicular to the radius of the circle.

*Find all points where those chords intersect each other or the circle

*Draw a triangle between each pair of adjacent points and the base station (conveniently isosceles)

*Find the angle of all portions of the circle with no inscribed triangle.

*Divide that angle by $2\pi$, add that fraction of the circle's area to the sum of the triangles to get total area.

Here a picture for funzies:

I know its a mess, but you can see three stations with lines connecting to a base station (one station is off the picture to lower right), three corresponding triangles marked $T_1, T_2, T_3$, and two areas with no triangles, described by angles $\alpha_1, \alpha_2$.
The problem is basically that this is all pretty hard. I feel like I am brute forcing this, and some of the code for calculating chord intercepts and ordering the intercept points is non-trivial. I think my code is working fine, but I don't think I am using the optimal geometric solution.
I believe that there is a simpler geometric solution to this, but I can't find it. How can I calculate the area within 1 km of a station and closer to that station than any other station?

A: Well, to compute the area closest to the station, you could use the Voronoi diagram; computing this in 2D is straightforward and well-documented, and it's really easy to find code for it. But you want to limit yourself to 1km, so that's kind of a pain.
Here's an alternative that'll do the job within any precision you like, and is far simpler than just about any geometric method:

*

*Draw a box around the city, extending at least 1 km beyond the outermost subway stations in all directions.

*Pick $N$ points at random within this box by picking two numbers, $u$ and $v$, uniformly between $0$ and $1$, say, and then adjusting to max and min latitude and longitude of your box by scaling and translation.

*For each station, $s$, make a counter, $c[s]$, which is initially 0.

*For each point,
i. Compute the distance to all subway stations; if none of these is less than 1km, move on to the next point.
ii. If one of them is less than 1 km, pick the smallest, and whatever station $s$ is closest, increment $c[s]$ by one.

*When you've allocated (or discarded) each of the $N$ points this way, compute, for each station $s$, the number $ U(s) = \frac{A}{N} c[s]$, where $A$ is the total area of the rectangle from which you selected the points.
The numbers $U(s)$ will be roughly the areas associated to each station. If you let $N$ be, say, $100,000$ to $1,000,000$, you'll have an estimate of the area that's probably good within a couple of percent, which is way better than the approximations of your model, hence good enough.
If you'd like, I can write 10 lines of matlab code that'll do this for you, but you'll have to enter the lat/lon positions of all the stations yourself...
N.B.: the kind of uniform sampling suggested here isn't great. If you go with some sort of stratified sampling, you can get much better estimates...but it'll take longer to get the program right, and your model probably isn't accurate enough to merit that effort.


Today the Supreme Court handed down its long-awaited decision in the Parking Eye v Beavis appeal on penalty clauses.

'ALICE-ISM' is an illustration of the age-old 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland', tackled through the grandeur of theatrical performance with a burlesque twist.
In this latest project, Daniel has assembled a talented team of theatrical female performers, from ballet to burlesque, to create a series of fantastical nonsensical imaginings that explore the promise of a world beyond with unexpected happenings.
The timeless fascination of Alice, which still resonates in today's modern world, as evidenced by the numerous interpretations of Alice across the many art forms, has convinced Daniel that 'Alice-ism' has become a movement in itself.
Working as a team, where art meets performance, to bring together a combination of skills and experience between Daniel Kneebone, Marie Delon, Kimberly Francis, Aurora Kurth, Lola Ramone, Rachel Belle and Irena. Coming to this year's BIFB, Alice-ism will be exhibited at The Mallow in August for 2 months.


That rearranged the list of top-grossing shows dramatically. At the top, Hamilton remains the biggest sell, taking in $3 million at the Nederlander Organization's Richard Rodgers Theatre. Next was Disney's The Lion King, up a roaring $277K to $2.4 million at the Nederlanders' Minskoff, followed by Wicked, $2 million at the Nederlanders' Gershwin. Aladdin, at the Disney flagship New Amsterdam, was fourth at $1.5 million, followed by the sole place taken by the Shubert Organization, Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812, $1.4 million at the Imperial.
Cobie Smulders and Kevin Kline in "Present Laughter" on Broadway.
There was good news for 1984, the George Orwell adaptation at Ambassador Theatre Group's Hudson, where sales rose $84K to $421K and better than 85 percent of capacity. Tony winner Oslo, at Lincoln Center Theater's Vivian Beaumont, also was up, $21K to $759K and 95 percent full houses. Any major improvement at Indecent probably was forestalled by a gap in sales between the show's posted closing notice and the resumption of sales when the run was extended through August 6. Tony winner Kevin Kline took his final bow as Present Laughter exited laughing from Jujamcyn Theatres' St. James with a $55K boost, to a $910K, sendoff. Also departing, Manhattan Theatre Club's rich Little Foxes revival, with Cynthia Nixon and Laura Linney in role rotation at the Friedman.
Week 6 of the 2017-18 season showed ticket sales of $32 million, off $3.3 million from the previous week, according to the trade group Broadway League. Average ticket price also fell, to $113.35 from $117.14.

A: Your server is set up for serving more than one website and uses a Host header in the http request to sort out which one a request is for.
If you give it the IP address, it doesn't know which web server is meant.

Would like to know if anyone here is using this? Item # is 412-578. My hair is very thin and also sparse in some area's.. I use to get perms but not recently… I wear it very short as well… Since i started using a blood thinner for AFIB noticed my hair is thinning more. Also want to add have some calics, as well.. Very soft and flyaway.
Have heard from my hair-dresser that blood thinning meds can cause that as well.
So i am really in need of a good product that will help with my issues..
Please anyone reply with any comments if you are using this root lift?
Have not been blessed with a good thick head of hair to start with..
Also am 78 yrs old as you may now hair does usually thin out at older age..
So i try to use good hair and skin products….
I use a product from Walmart called..
John Frieda Luxurious volume root booster,for a fraction of the cost.
You may want to look into this product,it works wonders.
You might want to look into Andrew Lessman's Hair Skin and Nail formula.
I got a 3 pack special of Sally's a while back, I can't remember if this was in it or not but the fragrance in her products was so awful and lasting, almost headache inducing for me that I threw it all in the trash.
I have had success w/ the Taya line.
No, haven't tried it. I'm curious to see if anyone else has.

"I spent most of my twenties working with teenagers in group homes, and working and teaching in Early Childhood Education. After the birth of my third child I returned to university, and graduated from the University of British Columbia with a B.F.A. in creative writing in 1984. As a single parent with three children, I then entered law school, and received my law degree in 1987. I have practiced in the area of family law since I was called to the bar of British Columbia in May 1988.
"In 1991 I completed my first mediation training. Since then, I have been committed to building my skills in dispute resolution, and expanding the out of court settlement options available for families. I have completed the course work in the Dispute Resolution Certificate program at the Justice Institute, as well as a number of advanced mediation courses with Joan Kelly. In 1999 I took my first training in the inter-disciplinary model of collaborative practice, and took further training in this model in 2000.
"In 2001 I was a member of the team that put together the first collaborative law training in British Columbia sponsored by the British Columbia Continuing Legal Education Society. Since then, I have developed materials for and presented numerous trainings in collaborative practice, and continue to offer training in the inter-disciplinary model in both Canada and the United States (see training). Since 2003, I have been an adjunct professor at the University of British Columbia faculty of law, where I co-teach a course in collaborative practice."

UD's Lachke selected Pew Scholar in the Biomedical Sciences
June 14, 2012–Salil Lachke, a University of Delaware biologist whose research is yielding new discoveries about the world's leading causes of blindness, has been named a 2012 Pew Scholar in the Biomedical Sciences by the Pew Charitable Trusts.
Lachke is one of 22 scholars selected across the United States, and the first University of Delaware professor to receive the award, which recognizes the nation's most innovative young researchers in medicine or the biomedical sciences.
The program, which was launched in 1985, is rigorously competitive, and recipients receive $240,000 over four years to pursue their research without restriction.
To be considered, applicants from all areas of the physical and life sciences related to biomedical study must be nominated by an invited institution and demonstrate both excellence and innovation in their research. This year, 179 institutions were requested to nominate a candidate, and 134 eligible nominations were received.
The 2012 scholars join a prestigious community that includes Nobel Prize winners, MacArthur Fellows and recipients of the Albert Lasker Medical Research Award.
"During these challenging budgetary times when traditional sources of funding are becoming even harder for scientists to obtain, we are proud to back our country's most promising scientists," said Rebecca W. Rimel, president and CEO of the Pew Charitable Trusts. "This funding comes at points in the scholars' professional lives when they often are the most innovative. While this program is a bold investment for us, it has paid incalculable dividends due to our scholars' record of producing groundbreaking research."
Lachke is exploring the molecular defects that cause eye disorders such as cataracts and glaucoma. Normal vision depends on the development of elongated fiber cells in the eye that form the bulk of the lens. If these cells do not form correctly, the lens will turn opaque, forming a cataract that could cause blindness.
Lachke has identified a gene, TDRD7, which when mutated can lead to cataracts and glaucoma in mice and in humans. TDRD7 encodes a protein that binds to ribonucleic (RNA) messages — in particular, it recognizes RNA messages that encode proteins that are essential to create a transparent lens.
He will use microscopy and molecular biology to detect the partners that interact with TDRD7 and will determine whether the protein's ability to move these RNAs to specific regions within the fiber cell is key to its role in lens development. He will also assess whether this system operates in the retina as well as the lens, and whether its malfunction is responsible for retinal disease.
"It's a great honor to be named a Pew Scholar, a family of scientists that includes Nobel Laureates. This is stellar company to be associated with," Lachke said.
Lachke has made great strides since his appointment to the faculty of the UD Department of Biological Sciences last year. A developmental biologist who uses systems-based approaches, he is actively collaborating with researchers around the globe, from human geneticists to bioinformaticists, to expedite gene discoveries associated with eye disease.
The lens of the eye has been a subject of developmental biology research since 1902, according to Lachke, yet when he entered the field in 2003, only 20-odd genes associated with human congenital primary cataract had been identified, largely through indirect methods.
A novel online gene discovery tool he has developed and which is hosted at the UD Center for Bioinformatics and Computational Biology, called "iSyTE" (for "Integrated Systems Tool for Eye gene discovery"), will help scientists more rapidly home in on previously unknown eye-associated genes and their functions.
Within the past three years, Lachke's research using iSyTE has already led to the discovery of three new cataract associated genes, and many more are in the pipeline.
"Identifying new genes associated with eye diseases will help us understand how the eye develops and functions, in turn providing critical insights for regenerative therapies and targets," Lachke said.
Lachke earned his doctorate in biology at the University of Iowa in 2003. He completed postdoctoral studies at Harvard Medical School and Brigham and Women's Hospital before joining the UD faculty in 2011.

Q: Handling rss redirects with Python/urllib2 Calling urrlib2.urlopen on a link to an article fetched from an RSS feed leads to the following error:

urllib2.HTTPError: HTTP Error 301: The HTTP server returned a redirect
  error tha t would lead to an infinite loop. The last 30x error message
  was: Moved Permanently

According to the documentation, urllib2 supports redirects.
On Java the problem was solved by just calling
HttpURLConnection.setFollowRedirects(true);
How can I solve it with Python?
UPDATE
The link I'm having problems with:
http://feeds.nytimes.com/click.phdo?i=8cd5af579b320b0bfd695ddcc344d96c

A: Nothing wrong with @sleeplessnerd's solution, but this is very, very slightly more elegant:
import urllib2
url = "http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9926023/handling-rss-redirects-with-python-urllib2"
p = urllib2.build_opener(urllib2.HTTPCookieProcessor).open(url)

print p.read()

In fact, if you look at the inline documentation for the CookieJar() function, it more-or-less tells you to do things this way:
You may not need to know about this class: try urllib2.build_opener(HTTPCookieProcessor).open(url)

A: Turns out you need to enable Cookies. The page redirects to itself after setting a cookie first. Because urllib2 does not handle cookies by default you have to do it yourself.
import urllib2
import urllib
from cookielib import CookieJar

cj = CookieJar()
opener = urllib2.build_opener(urllib2.HTTPCookieProcessor(cj))
p = opener.open("http://feeds.nytimes.com/click.phdo?i=8cd5af579b320b0bfd695ddcc344d96c")

print p.read()

In April 2015, NASA hosted its fourth annual International Space Apps Challenge, a three-day event in which participants develop tech-based solutions for global problems. One challenge encouraged participants to develop apps that map clean water sources on Earth. Participants created more than 50 apps in response to that challenge.
NASA's clean water mapping app challenge shows that technology can help us track and use water more wisely. But you don't have to download the global water mapping apps to take part. Many water-related apps apply to your everyday water usage. Try the apps below to track how water affects your life.
Many people have a goal to drink more water, but they can't always tell if they've succeeded. If you have that goal, download one of these apps.
This app lets you track, ounce by ounce, how much water you drink per day. People just starting the water drinking habit will enjoy the easy to set reminders and goals. You can even create a group with friends. Right now, you can only get Waterlogged iOS devices, but it's free to download.
Another free water-tracking app, Daily Water has versions for Android and iOS platforms. Every time you drink an eight-ounce glass of water, you mark it off in the app. It will also remind you to drink water at times you choose and track your habits over time.
Windows Phone users also have a free app to track the water they drink. A cartoon water droplet guides you through this app's features, which include reminders, history, and activity trackers. Just tell it a little personal data (age, gender, weight) to get started.
You use water for many other reasons than to satisfy your thirst. Monitor your water use for showers, laundry, and other purposes with these apps so you stay in a sensible range.
This app makes water conservation a track-able, achievable goal. It connects with your utilities provider to give you data about your water use, as well as how you compare to your neighbors. You can set goals to use less water or find patterns in your water use over time. It's free for iOS users.
You can determine how much water you use and what it costs you with this app for Android and iOS. You'll also find tips and tricks to use less water and quizzes to test your water conservation knowledge. The developers even added new features recently to track regional drought conditions.
Sometimes you don't have water on the go. Avoid buying expensive bottled water with the apps below.
Find water fountains and fill-up stations near you with this handy app, free on iOS. Users can rate fountains for cleanliness, temperature, and flavor, which helps you choose the best water sources and avoid ones that don't meet your standards.
Drinking container maker Thermos developed WeTap as a place to map where free drinking water is available. Like with OasisPlaces, WeTap lets users rate fountains, snap pictures, and add new fountains to the map. This app has versions for iOS and Android platforms, and it's free on both.
This Disney-created game lets you fill up Swampy the alligator's bathtub with water. Pass through dozens of fun levels and gain a little more appreciation for how water gets to you.
No matter what you want to track about your water use, you can find an app for that. Try one of these apps to achieve your water drinking or conservation goals.
