Klimt02.net loneliness is the slowest death: a requiem for longing by Erinn M. Cox.
We are each born with a knowing pain in our soul, and this innate understanding is loneliness – a lifetime is spent waiting, with a desperate deep ache for someone to fill the cavity we cannot otherwise fill.
When the other, it seems, is and has always been absent, the suffocation of loneliness becomes far more than a feeling, it swells into an insanity of our own making. We are driven mad by a relentless pursuit for a chosen other with a bittersweet and intoxicating need that is exciting and devastating, loving and heartbreaking.
It is an agonizing cycle: painful in the utter dissection of the self with each invitation and rejection; each a beautiful and grounded humiliation where we no longer even recognize ourselves as we wholly long for someone, anyone, to alleviate the paralyzing fear of dying alone. And it is this unconditional emotion of longing, the magnification of intense and unforgiving loneliness, that we mourn as it slowly and decidedly kills us.

Le royaume des Burgondes, ou Burgondie (en allemand Burgund), est un royaume barbare créé par le peuple burgonde après son installation sur les bords du lac Léman, en Sapaudie, au . Son souverain le plus glorieux, Gondebaud, gouverna alors un territoire qui s'étend de Langres à Marseille et du Rhin à la Loire.

Pendant les six siècles qui suivent l'installation de ce peuple, les remous de l'histoire font naître successivement différentes entités géopolitiques aux limites territoriales toujours changeantes qui prennent le nom de Bourgogne.

Historique

Profitant de la faiblesse de l'Empire romain d'Occident, les Burgondes, à la suite des Vandales, franchissent le Rhin à Mogontiacum (Mayence) en 406 et s'introduisent en Gaule. Gondicaire est généralement considéré comme le fondateur, en 411 ou 413, du premier royaume burgonde avec le statut de fédéré, établi sur la rive gauche du Rhin, avec Worms/Alzey comme capitale. Il lutte tour à tour contre les Romains, les Suèves, les Alamans et les Huns.

Après vingt ans d'établissement autour de Worms, les Burgondes rompent le traité qui les lie à Rome et s'étendent en Germanie supérieure vers Strasbourg et Spire. Ils sont attaqués sur la rive droite du Rhin. Gondicaire est tué lors d'une bataille livrée contre des mercenaires huns à la solde du général en chef romain Aetius en 437.

Cette sévère défaite sonne la fin du royaume burgonde de Worms, le peuple burgonde obtenant l'autorisation des autorités de l'Empire pour migrer en Sapaudie (région de Genève) et devenir fédérés de l'armée romaine en 443. La bataille de Worms/Alzey est évoquée dans la légende des Nibelungen, où Gondicaire est l'époux de Brunehilde sous le nom de Gunther (ou Gunnar). Le royaume des Burgondes (regnum Burgondionum), que l'on peut considérer comme le premier royaume de Bourgogne, doit son nom au peuple burgonde, venu s'installer en 443 sur les bords du lac Léman.

Après la destruction du royaume des Burgondes du Rhin en 437 par Aetius et le transfert des Burgondes en Sapaudie, ceux-ci y édifient donc leur propre royaume fédéré sur les bords du lac Léman. La position des Burgondes face au pouvoir romain est alors ambivalente, les souverains veillant constamment sur leur légitimité. Contrairement à de nombreux autres confédérés germaniques, les Burgondes respectent scrupuleusement les obligations imposées par leur statut de fédérés et luttent à de nombreuses reprises contre les envahisseurs. Des troupes burgondes aux ordres d'Aetius combattent les Huns puis prennent part à l'offensive contre les Suèves au milieu du . En 457 après la mort d'Aetius, les Burgondes exploitent la situation trouble en Gaule pour envahir la région autour de Lyon. L'année suivante, ils assiègent cette ville qui tombe en leur pouvoir à une date incertaine, vers 461 ou 469, et sert de résidence à partir de cette date aux rois des Burgondes. En Auvergne, ils combattent à nouveau aux côtés des Romains, contre les Wisigoths. Dans les années 470 et 480, ils partent en guerre contre les Alamans. Éduqué à la cour impériale de Ravenne et  de la Gaule, Gondebaud est élevé au rang de patrice des Romains en 456 et exerce véritablement le pouvoir dans les régions qu'il contrôle, de la Méditerranée au sud au lac de Constance au nord.

Avec la création du royaume fédéré en Sapaudie, le processus de romanisation des Burgondes s'accélère. Le roi autorise le conubium, c'est-à-dire les mariages entre Burgondes et Romains des provinces. L'étonnante faculté d'adaptation des Burgondes entraîne la perte de tout sentiment d'identité et l'assimilation rapide aux peuples parmi lesquels ils vivaient. L'aristocratie gallo-romaine qui coexistait sans peine avec les Burgondes y voit une garantie de maintien de l'ordre établi lui permettant peut-être de reprendre possession de ses terres. À la suite de la déposition de l'empereur Romulus Augustule en 476, le roi des Burgondes exerce directement sur son territoire les pouvoirs de l'empereur d'Occident. Toutefois, afin de légitimer sa bonne foi romaine, il demande à l'empereur d'Orient de le confirmer dans son rang de magister militum. Un trait marquant de la royauté burgonde est la dévolution d'apanages à des membres de la famille royale sans que la souveraineté soit pour autant divisée ; aux côtés de Lyon, Genève et Vienne deviennent ainsi des résidences royales. Cette cohabitation des éléments romains et germaniques se concrétise dans la « loi Gombette » (de Gondebaud) ou « Loi des Burgondes ». Promulguée au début du  par le roi Gondebaud, puis complétée par ses successeurs, elle fixe les usages à respecter par les sujets burgondes du royaume. Une seconde loi ou « Loi romaine des Burgondes » fixe le droit des sujets gallo-romains du royaume. Prises dans leur ensemble ces deux lois démontrent le degré de cohabitation entre les libres romains et germaniques.

Dans le domaine religieux, qui dans d'autres royaumes revêt un aspect hautement politique, on n'observe aucune controverse entre ariens et catholiques même si les Burgondes sont ariens. La maison royale semble s'être orientée très tôt vers le catholicisme. De plus, il n'est pas certain que tous les rois burgondes aient été ariens, même si les hauts postes de l'Église étaient occupés dans le royaume par des ariens.

Après la mort du roi Gondebaud, son fils Sigismond est proclamé roi. Battu par les Francs mérovingiens, il est livré et mis à mort par Clodomir. Son frère Godomar III, proclamé roi par l'aristocratie burgonde, réussit néanmoins à repousser les Francs à la bataille de Vézeronce en 524, dans laquelle Clodomir trouve la mort. Les Francs doivent attendre dix ans pour s'emparer du royaume qu'ils divisent entre eux. Malgré l'effondrement de la dynastie burgonde et la victoire définitive des successeurs de Clovis, la cohésion entre les deux ethnies burgonde et gallo-romaine, née des actions pacificatrices et unificatrices des rois burgondes fait naître un particularisme qui perdure. Les Mérovingiens intègrent le Royaume burgonde aux différents royaumes mérovingiens mais lui conservent son individualité. La Burgondie apparaît toujours comme une entité géopolitique, au même titre que la Neustrie et l'Austrasie.

À son apogée, ce royaume occupe un espace considérable : il trouve ses limites, au nord à Langres, au midi jusqu'à Cavaillon, voire Marseille. À l'ouest il s'étend jusqu'à Nevers, et au nord-est jusque sur les bords du lac de Constance. Son existence est éphémère : de 444 à 534. Les visées franques de , en 500 ou 501, sont poursuivies par ses fils, Clodomir, roi d'Orléans, lors de plusieurs campagnes militaires qui se déroulent entre 532 et 534 ; Childebert, roi de Paris, et Clotaire, roi de Soissons, finissent par mettre un terme au Royaume burgonde.

Cabinet held its ordinary meeting in Cape Town yesterday, 1 July 2009.
Government calls on all the medical professionals who are still on strike to return to work and resume their duties with immediate effect with the knowledge that Government has listened, understands their plight and that conditions in our public health facilities will improve with time. As we work together to address the challenges, we all have the responsibility to ensure that our citizens do not end up being deprived of their constitutional rights to quality healthcare.
Cabinet welcomed the news that some progress has been made in the negotiations with the unions regarding the Occupation Specific Dispensation (OSD) for the medical sector. The government's final offer has been tabled and negotiated in the Public Service Bargaining Chamber, while the unions have agreed to communicate the details of the offer to their members for consideration. The meeting expressed the hope that the unions will do all they can to ensure that details of the offer is properly explained to their members so that an agreement could be signed sooner rather than later as the offer represents an improvement in the salaries of the medical staff.
The labour dispute is doing considerable harm, adding more strain to an already strained public health sector and in the process, depriving ordinary South Africans access to desperately needed healthcare.
Government acknowledges the challenges regarding the working conditions of our medical professionals. Government would like to reiterate that the salary level of doctors is not in dispute and we acknowledge that the working conditions of our doctors need to be addressed. Our offer demonstrates willingness to begin the process of addressing the low salary levels. Government believes that a lot of work still needs to be done to improve the pay issues as well as the broader challenges regarding the provision of access to quality health care to the majority of South Africans. That is why we have identified healthcare as one of the key priorities of the new government as stated in the electoral mandate.
Government will continue to work tirelessly, in partnership with the representatives of the medical staff, to ensure that the working conditions in our public institutions are improved over time as these facilities provide essential services to South Africans, especially those who cannot afford private healthcare.
Cabinet congratulated the Local Organising Committee for organising and hosting one of the most successful FIFA Confederations Cup tournaments ever. The successful 2009 FIFA Confederations Cup tournament served to project our country positively to the world and demonstrated, without any shadow of doubt, that we have the capability and the capacity to host international events of this magnitude.
The meeting noted that this was one of the most important milestones as we get closer to hosting the 2010 FIFA World Cup Finals. The meeting expressed gratitude to the thousands of South Africans who attended the games in large numbers. Cabinet also paid tribute to all South Africans for their hospitality to all who visited our shores, including the participating teams.
Cabinet congratulated Bafana Bafana for their sterling performance against the best teams in the world during the tournament. The performance of the team showed that South Africa will not only be the tournament host but will also be a worthy contender in the games.
The meeting decided that the 2010 FIFA World Cup Finals will be a standing item on the Cabinet agenda to monitor preparations for the tournament.
Cabinet endorsed the call to declare 18 July, former President Nelson Mandela's birthday, as global Mandela Day. This campaign is led by the Nelson Mandela Foundation and seeks to encourage all of humanity to spend 67 minutes of their time doing something that would make a difference in their communities. This is in recognition of the 67 years that Madiba spent fighting against the evils of apartheid. Cabinet calls on all South Africans, civil society organisations and the citizens of the world to support the Mandela Day initiative by doing good in their communities. It is important to note that Mandela Day will not be a public holiday.
The Minister of Finance briefed Cabinet about the state of the economy and the fiscal outlook for the rest of the year. The report indicated a decline in revenue collection which will lead to a larger than anticipated budget deficit. Cabinet endorsed the proposed approach to maintain the current spending levels through borrowings to offset the budget deficit. The Minister of Finance would explain the details in his budget speech. Departments will also be required to review their spending plans to ensure effective and efficient use of the limited public resources.
The Medium Term Strategic Framework (MTSF) for the period 2009-2014 was approved. The MTSF is informed by the electoral mandate and will guide government's Programme of Action for the mandate period (2009-2014). The framework builds on the successes of the past fifteen years of democracy, draws lessons identified in the Fifteen Year Review, identifies development challenges facing South Africa and identifies the medium-term strategies to improve the conditions of life for all South Africans.
The five-year framework will be reviewed annually during the mid-year Lekgotla to take into account the new developments. The framework will be distributed to all Government departments and will soon be published on the government website. A simplified version will be also be published for wider distribution.
The progress report on the national macro-organisation of the state project was noted. This report outlined the progress regarding the reorganisation of state departments following the establishment of the new Government. The report indicated that progress was made in key areas such as the allocation and transfer of functions to new ministries, staff audits, consultations with labour, the creation of organisational structures, budgets and systems-related issues.
The meeting noted that President Jacob Zuma was participating in a number of international events to advance Africa's development agenda. These events include the 13th Ordinary Session of the African Union which is taking place in Libya from 1-3 July under the theme "Investing in Agriculture for economic Growth and Food Security". This Summit will be followed by the G8-Africa Outreach session which will be held in Italy from the 9-10 July.
A progress report on the development of the National Urban Development Framework was noted. This framework seeks to: provide a development policy framework between towns, cities and rural areas and between local, provincial and national spheres; improve the management of urban areas and service delivery in towns and cities; help cities to manage the rapid urbanisation; and align Integrated Development Plans (IDPs), Provincial Growth and Development Strategies (PGDSs) and the emerging national plan. The Minister of Co-operative Governance and Traditional Affairs will finalise the framework in consultation with the Ministries of Human Settlements, Rural Development and Land Reform and of Economic Development.
Assistant Commissioner RN Ntuli was appointed as Divisional Commissioner (Crime Intelligence) in the South African police Service.
Ms M Phetla-Lekhethe was appointed Deputy Director-General, International and Regional Economic Policy, in the National Treasury.
Mr KW Brown was appointed Deputy Director-General, Intergovernmental Relations in the National Treasury.
Noted the appointment of Dr A van Jaarsveld as the new President and Chief Executive Officer of the National Research Foundation (NRF) for a period of five years.

Written on June 9, 2005, and categorized as Secret and Invisible.
I'm sure, dear sophisticated reader and internet genius, that you have come across the Death Clock by now. Haven't you. Of course you have.
Well, here's the date of my death. You have until Sunday, January 27, 2058 (or thereabouts) to buy me presents and praise me to the rafters. Actually if you click the link a few times, years add and remove themselves in a most variable way, which is strange. But then, that's life, I suppose.
I decided to put it on "optimistic" mode as it is not yet afternoon and my suggestible mind is a groggy wet flannel at this hour and I don't want to despair just yet.
I used to fret a lot about death. I was convinced that I would die young. I identified with Yossarian in Catch 22 who ran endless scenarios about death and dying through his mind, depressed and scared as he was, stuck in a war far from home. I loved Yossarian, he understood. I read Catch 22 14 times between the ages of 11 and 15. All the way through.
Yossarian's one goal—to stay alive or die trying—is based on the assumption that he must ultimately fail. He believes that Snowden's gory death revealed a secret: that man is, ultimately, garbage. The specter of death haunts Yossarian constantly, in forms ranging from the dead man in his tent to his memories of Snowden. Furthermore, Yossarian is always visualizing his own death and is absolutely flabbergasted by the total number of ways in which it is possible for a human being to die. But Yossarian's awareness of the inevitability of death is not entirely negative: it gives him a sense of how precious life is, after all, and he vows to live for as long as possible. He also lives more fully than he would without his constant consciousness of life's frailty. He falls in love constantly and passionately, and he laments every second that he cannot spend enjoying the good things in the world.
Don't worry, there is now a report from a big tech company in the UK that you will be able to download your brain into a computer by 2050 (if you have enough $$) and "live forever"…Personally, I would pass on this one, because I already have a better plan, but that's just me.
and still i think of the total number of ways in which it is possible for a human being to live. maybe we are all sentenced (doomed?) to life at some point.

July New Releases at Chi Chi Memories!
a very good morning to you all! I am currently out at a 'scrum kids' training session with my family,we will be all watching my son having fun !
so anyway this weeks card is using 'scooter girl' one of the fantastic new July releases at CCM.
If you follow the CCM blog you will have seen this card up for friday's inspiration on their blog.
she looks the embodiment of summer fun, doesn't she?
I used some bright an funky papers as the background or the image, and I coloured her in using copics and promarkers .
I also used glossy accents on the goggles and scooter lights to imitate glass.
I think (as always) that she is mega cute, and Natalie has done another fantastic job! I can't wait to show you the rest of the month's new releases, but I'm going to have to…stay tuned for another post next sunday!
it will be on the 15th of the month every month so keep your eyes peeled for it!
← Rainbows and dollies and CUTE!


Steven Ray Hughes performs an original love song during the "Killing You Softly" 2014 show. Hughes will be back at it again Saturday night. Other local musicians will also get in on the action.
Just because it's not Valentine's Day anymore doesn't mean you can't go on another date.
Lewistown singer/songwriter Dave Rummans wants to make sure this is the case, as he has put together another concert of local musicians at Jack's Hangar to celebrate the romantic holiday.
"You can't get enough love," Rummans said.
And this upcoming concert, "Killing You Softly With Their Songs," will satisfy the soul, and the heart's desire, Rummans said, with performances from Randy Berry, Steven Ray Hughes, Infinity and Quasar Thomson, Christie Aldrich, Chris Hildebrant, Neil Hamilton, John Campbell, Rummans and others.
Make no mistake about it, Rummans added, the show is not just for couples.
For those familiar with the Valentine's Day shows at Jack's Hangar, there will be some familiar faces, but there will also be new ones, as Jeanne Moe, Michael Hamling, Angela Alaers and Zane "Z-Man" Hauser are all making their show debuts. Moe will perform a classic cover, Hamling will join Hildebrant, Alaers will sing with Hamilton and "Z-man" will play drums on a number of tunes.
Calista Singley, a Lewistown native, will also be returning for the show, performing her own set and collaborating with Rummans on a song.
"We're excited to have her back," Rummans said. "It's been a while since she's been in one of these productions.
This show will also be the first time Les LaFranier (of Mustache Pete fame) performs his own set. In the past, he has only backed people up playing bass.
The show beings at 7:30 p.m. Doors open at 7 p.m. Tickets are available at the Lewistown Art Center.


I would like to welcome new reader Palsgrave to the blog. I hope this gives you some ideas of your own.
Sometimes I buy some of the wooden shapes from the catalogs just for the heck of it, to see what I can make out of it. The barrel beads make good bearskin hats and abdomens, and ½ of the beehive bead makes a great turban (although they are a paint to cut in half ...). Today's little project came from buying some angel wings.
At first I thought I would use these for my larger 42mm figures, given that the wingspan is 2 ¼". However, the more that I was looking at it and measuring it, along with some 28mm Roman cavalry I am making, the more I became convinced that they could be used in that scale too.
By cutting the wing at an angle, it looks just like the wings from a Polish Winged Hussar. I drilled a hole in the bottom of the wing and into the body in order to pin it for strength. It is attached to the same type of button plug-round head plug-spool figure I created for the Romans.
I also decided to try a little experiment with the spool in that I sanded out enough space so that it could straddle the horse figure. Definitely a lot more work than simply lopping off the bottom of the spool, sanding a smaller indentation, and then using craft foam to make the legs. I do like the look from the side when the figure is mounted, however. Maybe a little more experimentation with the tools will yield a faster way of removing the excess wood other than just sanding or grinding it down.
Another little experiment was sanding down the bottom edge of the button plug so it is rounded, making it look a little better as a head. I also sanded the top of the round head plug, which forms the top of the torso, to increase the surface area contacted between it and the button plug, making gluing easier and stronger. It is worth the effort and actually takes less effort than pinning.
As it stands I already have a 15mm Polish army to go along with a Cossack one, so this will probably serve as a knightly figure for a 28mm HOTT army.
Go to the back of your local super market and look in their garbage bin. I found some super material all for the price of carrying it away. They were wooden fruit (and maybe some veggie) boxes, made both of solid wood veneer (less that a 1/16") and some even of very thin (slightly under 1/8") plywood. Remove the staples and you have great material for bases and scratch-built projects.
For me a good source of sheet wood would be very useful. Although I tend to start with wooden shapes, like flat toothpicks, craft sticks, etc. sometimes wood sheets are very useful, such as for cartridge boxes, swords, sabretaches, etc.
And free is good! Thanks Jim!
Oh, and welcome to new reader Palsgrave. I hope you enjoy the blog.
As I was painting my test 28mm Imperial Roman soldier, it dawned on me that the helmet did not look right. I knew it was not going to be perfect in shape, but it was missing ... something. I went back to my reference books and it leapt out at me: the very distinctive neck guard.
I grabbed some of the thinner craft sheet foam and, using the button plug acting as the head, pressed the base of it into the foam to get an indentations. (See earlier experiments with craft sheet foam and how to make templates.) I then glued it underneath my previous foam piece, trimmed carefully, and now it looks right.
With that, it was time to finish painting him, including a look of grim determination on his face.
I have been working diligently on some new figures for Bob to paint, seeing as he thought the last batch were agreeable to paint. As I am using the figures for both Song of Drums and Shakos skirmishes and Drums and Shakos Large Battles, I have decided to make units of 14 infantry and four cavalry figures each.
This first picture is of eight horses, for two cavalry units. A few changes from previous horses in this scale. First, I added necks between the head of the horse and the chest. Previously I just filled the gap with modeling material, but I liked how the 28mm Armenian cavalry looked, so I have switched. I use a small spool for the neck, which makes it easy to use a dowel to fix the head to the spool and the spool to the split egg acting as the horse's chest and forelegs. I will use modeling material to fill in the gaps between the spool and the split eggs. Otherwise, the figures are the same.
Next up is infantry in shako. I still have not determined which nationality this will be (I just know it is not British, as I use a dowel for their shako). I think it will be French as I am still trying to figure out how to simulate the oilskin cover over a Prussian shako. I will probably use a dowel for that, and not a spool, which creates a noticeable trim around the top of the shako. Nothing new here other than I am using the 'defending' pose that I used with my Prussian Landwehr, rather than the older 'march attack' pose.
I would like a little more color in my army, so maybe I will make them something from the Confederation of the Rhine, or Italian troops (white with green and red!).
The last batch are the riders of the two cavalry units. They use the same pawn figure as the infantry above, but I have shortened them by about a 1/4". The bottoms are then sanded so they fit the curve of the spool used as the back of the horse. I've temporarily mounted them on toothpicks for each of painting. The one thing I have learned is to paint the riders before putting them on the horses, especially for Napoleonics, where there might be quite a bit of detail that would be hard to get if it were glued to the horse, yet is visible so needs to be painted.
On the left are four French Carabineers, in the early uniform. as shown below. These figures have a simple dowel for the bearskin, but at a straight angle on the bottom and a 15º angle on the top. I then take a coarse carbide bit and 'comb' the dowel from top to bottom, giving it a 'fur' look. (I will provide better photos when it is complete and painted.) Flat toothpick parts for the plume and the scabbard.
On the right are four French Hussars. I am looking forward to experimenting with craft foamsheet and making the pelisse (the jacket draped over the left shoulder that so defines the hussar). For these the plume was a round dowel thinned at the bottom. Once it is firmly glued to the spool I will also 'comb' the plume, only horizontally, to represent the feathers.
Three units on the bench, working all at the same time. Again, this is a way to produce more, quickly, by reducing the amount of time spent switching tools. Further, while one item is being glued and drying on one set of figures, you can work on another. By the time you rotate through all three units, the first one it usually ready for the next step.
I am actually hoping to get five or six units to Bob, so I can increase my armies quicker, but we will see.
I happened upon an interesting combination of shapes today, and it occurred when I was thinking about finishing my 25mm DBA Roman army. I had started my Romans using a Micro Shaker Peg, which is the same basic figure that I used for my 25mm DBA Armenian army. How I was doing the helmet was taking a lot of sanding, which generally does not bother me except that the 25mm figures are much smaller than the 42mm ones, so I end up sanding my fingertips.
It would be very easy to glue those pieces together and just go with that, but you know me. I like the little details. The half spool makes a great scutum, but only the top and bottom shield rim is represented, so I took two pieces of thin foam sheet and made the rim for the left and right. Trimming it with a sharp blade will make it look better.
To finish off the helmet, I added a strip of thicker foam sheet and glued it to the sides and back of the 'head' under the 'helmet'. Using a sharp blade I cut out the section where the ears were exposed. Simple, but effective. As I look at other pictures of Romans I may find other bits and pieces to add, but for now that looks pretty good. I can make these much faster than the ones I had been making previously. Given that these will be a little thicker, I think I will use these for the legionnaires and the others, based on the micro shaker pegs, the auxilia.
Now the only question is: do I paint these myself or send them to Bob? I think they would do well with the marker pen treatment that I used for my Armenians.
First, I would like to welcome new reader ZeroTwentyThree to the blog. I hope you enjoy it.
It has been awhile since I wrote on this blog and that has been because I take on too many projects simultaneously. I don't know why I do it, but there you are.
I made some Prussian Napoleonic Landwehr and sent them off to Bob Barnetson to be painted. You can find the results on his blog. I've finally gotten them in an am happy to report that they look as good in person as they do in the pictures. I am currently building a batch for Bob right now and that has prompted this short blog entry.
One of the lessons of making my wooden soldiers is that much of the time spent is in switching between tool bits - the various sanders, grinders, and drills. Because it takes so much time (and puts wear on the tool) it makes sense to minimize that as much as possible, which means doing quite a number of similar bits and pieces before moving on to another.
For example, I have to use a jig to make my shakos and it takes a few minutes to use it properly, so it makes sense not to make only one shako, even if that is all I need. So now I typically grab as dozen spools or so and make them into shako, storing the excess in zip lock storage bags until I need them.
Another technique is build several different types of units, or units in different stages of construction, at the same time. Often you find yourself gluing two components together and then needing to sand one of the components just glued. Rather than weakening the bond from sanding it too soon, it is better to switch to another task, either making new components or working on ones that have dried thoroughly. This usually means having several different projects to work on at the same time.
Right now I am working on a Napoleonic infantry unit (I have not decided on which specific one yet, which is the beauty of these figures; most of the detail is in the painting) and two small cavalry units. When they ar built, I will take pictures and then send them off to Bob for painting.
I still need to finish my 25mm Romans DBA army and I have to figure out a better way to make artillery. Plus I have to make it a little smaller if I want to have any hope of using it on anything other than a humongous table.

This week in Spanish 2 we are working on being able to fill out basic forms in Spanish. Luckily, most of our personal information is not written that much differently in Spanish than it is in English. However, there are definitely some new vocabulary we need to learn as well as a few differences in the way that personal information is presented.
First, we started by introducing some vocabulary that would be important to know if you were filling out a form of any kind.
We also identified some essential questions that we will focus on for our speaking rounds this week.
Since this is the second week that we have worked with this material, we are working with the skills of presentational writing, presentational speaking, and interpersonal speaking this week. Last week we worked with the skills of interpretive listening and reading and students heard and read many examples of other people presenting basic information about themselves. So, this week it is their turn to to take over.
By the end of the week, my students will need to fill out this basic form in Spanish with their personal information.
They will also need to be able to provide basic information over the phone. We have chosen to have our speaking assessment be focused on their school e-mail addresses which they must be able to tell me in Spanish. This will require them to use their previous knowledge of numbers and letters in Spanish and incorporate our newly learned vocabulary for @ (arroba) and .com (punto com).
Click on any of the pictures to download your own copy of these files! Also, don't forget to check out our Integrated Performance Assessment on Giving Basic Personal Information.
I like the Driver's License Application.
I had my students fill out a a passport template this year.
Another idea I saw that you can practice with personal information is to fill in the information with a famous Hispanic; a great way to incorporate famous Latinos for Hispanic Heritage Month.
My next step is to make this a fillable form and post it to my Google Classroom. That way I can have them research a famous Hispanic and fill it out all online! I will get there!
Love the idea of using this for HHM!
A standout amongst the most essential explanation behind the decimation of individuals is just that today individuals simply just crushes their life on the level of their elevated requirements towards their life.
Here are some basic and professional information about Spanish. I am thinking to share this blog with essay writing students so that students can go with this blog.
My aunt lives in spain.She often asked me to learn spanish but I never.Guys I would like you to follow the link,its really amazing for learning spanish language.
The standout between the the majority of important description at the rear of the actual decimation of people is simply which these days people just crushes their own existence upon the amount of their own raised needs in the direction of their own existence.

National Portrait Gallery Engagement | Yards Park Engagement | Rebecca and David
This summer, I had the pleasure of photographing David and Becky. Becky was referred to be by a mutual friend who works in her office, Greg Millwater. As it turned out, I actually already knew her fiance! David and I were the same year as Teach for America Corps members! Out of the entire DC region, David and I were buddies because we both had a love of sarcasm. It was fate that years later, I would get to hang out with this magnificent couple by capturing their wedding day! We snapped these portraits at the National Portrait Gallery and Yards Park near their home!
When grabbing lunch with Becky, she told me the story of her and David. I have asked her to share it in her own words because I felt I wouldn't do it justice. Her eloquent words are followed by my favorite snaps of the day!:
"It all began in 2012, about a year and a half after I graduated from college in D.C. I was being dragged out to Sam's Halloween party. I went to college with Sam, who was originally from Chicago and good friends with one of my roommates. Sam was known for throwing good parties, he had a Capitol Hill row home he shared with some friends, complete with an illegal, makeshift roof deck and a "kegerator". I was Tinkerbell, but I hadn't even managed to find wings. At the party, Sam insisted that we had to meet this guy, David, because David lived in the apartment building my roommates and I were about to move into.
Sam introduced me to a cute guy, David Chodak, dressed in normal clothes. I asked him who he was supposed to be dressed up as, and he insisted he was Turtle from Entourage. I rolled my eyes, but as I had also missed the memo on dressing up for the party, I didn't push him on it. David and I chatted for a while about how he knew Sam (they went to camp in Chicago together when they were kids), his job as a teacher (his second year with TFA), and about his unusual last name (Chodak, like Kodak) but then David left the party to go out to nearby bars. I also left shortly thereafter, to go home, and a few weeks later my roommates and I moved into a fancy new apartment building near the convention center.
Fast forward to a few weeks before Christmas, and one of my roommates was insisting that we had to go to the building Christmas party on the roof. I was not overly excited, but she promised free food and drinks so I thought I'd go for 15 minutes, snag some food and head home. We walk in, and there's a boy who looks familiar.
"I know you," he said. "We met at Sam's party. David Chodak, like Kodak, I'm a teacher." We chatted for a while and then exchanged phone numbers. A few days later he texted me asking if I knew how to play chess. I told him I did, and the next night I went to his apartment to play. David beat me in about 3 moves, but then he patiently explained where I went wrong (my first move basically) and we chatted and had some wine. He offered to take me to dinner the next week.
The next week, he said he had a reservation at 7 at a restaurant in Chinatown so we could meet in the building lobby at 6:30 and walk over together. We arrived at the restaurant on time but they did not have a reservation for Chodak! The surprisingly crowded restaurant found us a seat, and a nice dinner began. We began seeing each other regularly and realized we had more in common than our shared apartment lobby
Fast forward to a year later, when one of David's friends spilled the beans that David never called to make the reservation on our first date! He assumed the restaurant would be empty enough for us to walk in, it was just a Tuesday after all. But when we arrived and David didn't want to be caught lying to me on our first date, not to mention that we were both hungry and didn't want to wait to be seated, so he insisted it was the restaurant's mistake. I found it hilarious but now I'm in charge of making our reservations.
Almost four years after we started dating, David and I went for a walk on the mall before a big Friendsgiving feast that afternoon. I insisted on showing David the view from the back of the Lincoln memorial, but while back there David hands me a card. Inside he asks me to marry him, and I look up from the card to see him down on one knee with a gorgeous ring in his hand. I immediately burst into tears, although I did manage to say yes. And now we're busy wedding planning!
He had 2 chances to mess it all up (not getting my number when we met, and not having a reservation on our first date) but third time was the charm and we've been dating ever since."

This is an agreement ("Agreement") between Infinet Communications Group Inc. dba Digital Voice™ ("we," "us" or " Digital Voice™") and the user ("you," "user" or "Customer") of Digital Voice™'s communications services ("Service") and any IP adapter or gateway devices, ("Device" or "Equipment") used to provide the Service. BBVoice is an authorized reseller of Digital Voice.
1.1 Non-Availability of Traditional 911 or E911 Dialing Service.
VoIP services allow you to make or receive telephone calls over the Internet. The nature of VoIP telephone calls, while appearing similar to traditional telephone calling services, create unique limitations and circumstances. You acknowledge and agree that differences exist between traditional telephone service and VoIP telephone services, including the lack of traditional 911 emergency services. Because of the unique nature of VoIP telephone calls, emergency calls to 911 through your VoIP service will be handled differently than traditional phone service. The 911 Dialing feature of the Service is different in a number of important ways from traditional 911 or E911 service as described herein and on our website page for 911 Dialing under "Features," and below. You shall inform any household residents, guests and other third persons who may be present at the physical location where you utilize the Service of (i) the non-availability of traditional 911 or E911, and (ii) the important differences in and limitations of the Digital Voice™ 911 Dialing feature as compared with traditional 911 or E911 dialing. The documentation that accompanies each Device that you purchase should include a sticker concerning the potential non-availability of traditional 911 or E911 dialing (the "911 Sticker"). It is your responsibility, in accordance with the instructions that accompany each Device, to place the 911 Sticker on each Device that you use with the Service. If you did not receive a 911 Sticker with your Device, or you require additional 911 Stickers, please contact our customer care department at 1-866-OK-GO-WEB.
1.2 Registration of Physical Location Required.
For each phone number that you use for the Service, you must register with Digital Voice™ the physical location where you will be using the Service with that phone number. Failure to register your physical location may result in suspension of your service as per section 3.4. When you move the Device to another location, you must register your new location. If you do not register your new location, any call you make using the 911 Dialing feature may be sent to an emergency center near your old address. Please note that if you are updating your billing or shipping address, you will need to specify that you also wish to update your 911 registered address at the same time. You will register your initial location of use when you subscribe to the Service. Thereafter, you may register a new location by following the instructions from the "911" registration link on your Digital Voice™ web account page. For purposes of the 911 Dialing feature, you may only register one location at a time for each phone line you use with the Service. Please note that when you update your 911 registered address, it may take up to 72 hours for that update to complete. You should not consider an update successful unless and until you receive an email from us confirming the new 911 Dialing registered address for that phone line.
1.3 Re-Activation Required if You Change Your Number or Add or Port New Numbers.
If you change your phone number or if you add or port new phone numbers to your account, you will need to check that your 911 registered address is correctly updated to your new number. Failure to do so may result in 911 calls misdirected to an old or incorrect address.
1.4 How Emergency Personnel are Contacted.
We contract with a third party to use the address of your registered location to determine the nearest emergency response center and then forward your call to a general number at that center. When the center receives your call, the operator may not have your address and may not have your phone number. You may therefore be asked to provide your address and phone number in order to get help. You hereby authorize us to disclose your name and address to third-party service providers, including, without limitation, call routers, call centers and public service answering points, for the purpose of dispatching emergency services personnel to your registered location.
When you are on a 911 emergency call, you must not disconnect the call until told to do so by the dispatcher, as the dispatcher may not have your number or contact or address information, or may want to verify any such information that they may have. If you are inadvertently disconnected, you must call back immediately. Failure to do so may result in emergency services misdirected to an old or incorrect address, or possibly not sent at all when no address information is available.
(a)Service Outages Due to Power Failure or Disruption. 911 Dialing does not function in the event of a power failure or disruption at your location or our servers location or both. If there is an interruption in the power supply, the Service, including 911 Dialing, will not function until power is restored. Following a power failure or disruption, you may need to reset or reconfigure the Device prior to utilizing the Service.
(b)Service Outages Due to Internet Outage or Suspension or Termination of Broadband Service or ISP Service. Service outages or suspensions or terminations of service by your broadband provider or ISP will prevent all Service, including 911 Dialing, from functioning.
(c)Service Outage Due to Suspension or Termination of Your Digital Voice™ Account. Service outages due to suspension or termination of your account will prevent all Service, including 911 Dialing, from functioning.
(d)Service Outages Due to ISP or Broadband Provider Blocking of Ports or Other Acts. Your ISP or broadband provider or other third party may intentionally or inadvertently block the ports over which the Service is provided or otherwise impede the usage of the Service. In that event, provided that you alert us to this situation, we will attempt to work with you to resolve the issue. During the period that the ports are being blocked or your Service is impeded, and unless and until the blocking or impediment is removed or the blocking or impediment is otherwise resolved, your Service, including the 911 Dialing feature, may not function. You acknowledge that Digital Voice™ is not responsible for the blocking of ports by your ISP or broadband provider or any other impediment to your usage of the Service, and any loss of service, including 911 Dialing, that may result. In the event you lose service as a result of blocking of ports or any other impediment to your usage of the Service, you will continue to be responsible for payment of the Service charges unless and until you terminate the Service in accordance with this Agreement.
(e)Service Outages Due to any failures that may arise from the facilities or equipment used by Digital Voice™ or other telecommunications service providers with whom Digital Voice™ is interconnected ("other providers"). This includes any acts, mistakes, omissions, interruptions, delays, errors, defects or misrouting of communication by Digital Voice™ or other providers. Such outages may affect or prevent all Service, including 911 Dialing, from functioning.
(f)Other Service Outages. If there is a Service outage for any reason, such outage will prevent all Service, including 911 Dialing, from functioning. Such outages may occur for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to, those reasons described elsewhere in this Agreement.
1.7 Network Congestion, Reduced Speed for Routing or Answering 911 Dialing Calls.
There may be a greater possibility of network congestion and/or reduced speed in the routing of a 911 Dialing call made utilizing the Service as compared to traditional 911 dialing over traditional public telephone networks.
1.8 Possible Lack of Automatic Number Identification.
It may or may not be possible for the local emergency personnel to automatically obtain your phone number when you use 911 Dialing. Our system is configured to send the automatic number identification information; however, one or more telephone companies, not us, route the traffic to the emergency response center and that center may not be capable of receiving and passing on that information. As a result, the operator who answers your 911 Dialing call may not be able to automatically obtain your phone number and call you back if the call is not completed or is not forwarded, is dropped or disconnected, if you are unable to speak to tell the operator your phone number, or if the Service is not operational for any reason.
1.9 No Automated Location Identification.
In most service areas, it is not possible at this time to transmit to the local emergency response center the address that you registered for 911 Dialing. You will need to state the nature of your emergency promptly and clearly, including your location (and possibly your telephone number), as the operator will not have this information. Emergency personnel will not be able to find your location if the call is not completed or is not forwarded, is dropped or disconnected, if you are unable to speak to tell the operator your location, or if the Service is not operational for any reason.
1.10 Disclaimer of Liability and Indemnification.
We do not have any control over whether, or the manner in which, calls using our 911 Dialing service are answered or addressed by any local emergency response center. We disclaim all responsibility for the conduct of local emergency response centers and the national emergency calling center. We rely on third parties to assist us in routing 911 Dialing calls to local emergency response centers and to a national emergency calling center. We disclaim any and all liability or responsibility in the event such third party data used to route calls is incorrect or yields an erroneous result. Neither Digital Voice™ nor its officers or employees may be held liable for any claim, damage, or loss, and you hereby waive any and all such claims or causes of action, arising from or relating to our 911 Dialing service unless such claims or causes of action arose from our gross negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct. You shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Digital Voice™, its officers, directors, employees, affiliates and agents and any other service provider who furnishes services to you in connection the Service, from any and all claims, losses, damages, fines, penalties, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys fees) by, or on behalf of, you or any third party relating to the absence, failure or outage of the Service, including 911 Dialing, incorrectly routed 911 Dialing calls, and/or the inability of any user of the Service to be able to use 911 Dialing or access emergency service personnel.
If you are not comfortable with the limitations of the 911 Dialing service, you should consider having an alternate means of accessing traditional 911 or E911 services or terminating the Service.
Except for customers on one year contract, this Agreement will automatically renew on a monthly basis for customers on monthly billing cycles and on a 6-month basis for customers on 6-month billing cycles, as described in section 3.1. You will be responsible for additional full charges for the entire billing cycle, including, without limitation, all unbilled usage charges if applicable, all of which will immediately become due and payable, unless you provide written notice of cancellation to Digital Voice at least ten (10) days before the end of your current term.
Customers on one year contract may cancel Service before the end of the one (1) month free trial (if customer received a free trial), or after twelve (12) months of the Activation Date without penalty. If Customer on one year contract cancels the Service for any reason after the one (1) month free trial and before twelve (12) months of service, a $50 cancellation fee will be applied upon cancellation.

Q: Setting error order preferences in filepond Is there a way to set error ordering preferences in filepond? I ran into an issue where the error being thrown is not in the order that I would want an error thrown.
I'm using a filepond with the following two options:
maxFileSize: "10MB",
acceptedFileTypes: ['image/png', 'image/jpeg']

When I try to drag an mp4 file that is over 10MB, I receive a file-size error. In this scenario I would like to receive an invalid filetype error first. Is it possible to have filepond preference one error over another or is the ordering always set?

Antihistamines are generally considered safe for most people. This includes adults, children over the age of 2, and older people. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, ask your doctor if antihistamines are safe for you. Ask your doctor if you can take antihistamines if you have a chronic disease or condition. This includes heart disease, diabetes, or high blood pressure.
You can take antihistamines different ways, depending on your symptoms. Some people take them only when they have symptoms. Others experience symptoms every day, so they take the antihistamine every day. Sometimes people take them before they are going to be exposed to something they are allergic to. This could include an animal (such as cats or dogs) or certain kinds of plants or flowers.
There are many different brands of antihistamines that you can buy over the counter. Some work in different ways. For example, some are designed to work for 4 to 6 hours. Others last for 12 to 24 hours. Make sure you read the label carefully. Follow the directions for how often to take the antihistamine.

You shouldn't take prescription antihistamines if you also are taking certain other prescription medicines. These include erythromycin (an antibiotic) or certain medicines used to treat fungal infections. These include itraconazole or ketoconazole. When your doctor gives you a prescription, always ask if it's safe to use with the other medicines you're taking. Your pharmacist can also tell you what is safe to take. If you aren't sure, ask the pharmacist or your doctor before taking another medicine.
Can I share my prescription antihistamines with friends who have allergies?
No. You should never share a prescription medicine with another person. Your doctor has examined you and has picked a medicine that is right only for your problem. Some antihistamines can cause serious side effects if they are given to people who are taking another medicine, or who should not take antihistamines for another reason.
Do I need an antihistamine?

The Chicago Bulls have finally landed the point guard they have been aggressively pursuing. Since the 2021 NBA trade deadline, the Bulls have been chasing after New Orleans Pelicans' guard Lonzo Ball. First reported by Shams Charania of The Athletic and later confirmed by Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, the Bulls and Lonzo Ball have agreed to a four-year, $85 million deal as part of a sign-and-trade agreement. The fourth year of the deal also includes a player option, according to Michael Scotto of Hoops Hype.
As noted in the tweets above, Ball's deal with the Bulls will be part of a sign-and-trade agreement. Chicago will send Tomas Satoransky, Garrett Temple, and a second-round draft pick to the Pelicans.
Last year with New Orleans, Ball averaged 14.6 PPG, 4.8 RPG, and 5.7 APG. He shot career-highs from three-point land (37%) and from the charity stripe (78%). Ball now joins the Bulls core of Zach LaVine and Nikola Vucevic for what is hopefully going to be a special season in Chicago.
