Being newly engaged, I find myself frequently being asked about my wedding plans. The fact of the matter is, I have no clue where or when my Mister and I will eventually tie the knot-but I definitely know the things I don't want from a wedding, that's for sure! With this in mind, I went to my first wedding fair recently to see what all the fuss was about, and whilst I discovered that wedding fairs aren't really built for people like me (set on eloping in a party of two!) I did have a fun time all the same. So for all of you soon to be brides out there (and for those of you that just love a good wedding!), this one's for you!
On arrival we were given our goodie bags (I loved that it said 'Totes Engaged' on the front-how cute!) and guided in the direction of the action. I loved these Coco Luminare lights that greeted us; more and more people seem to be having light installations as part of their wedding and wedding photography and the choice here was spectacular-we were off to a great start!
If you're planning a big wedding or wedding reception, wedding fairs are really where it's at. Everything you need is there under one roof at your disposal, from what to wear, to cake, music, flowers, favours and balloons; the options and possibilities are endless. Forgive me for not catching the names of every business that was exhibiting; I went purely with my wedding in mind and took so many photos that I thought it would be rude not to share them.
...and there were beautiful flowers, invitations and favours everywhere I turned.
I may not know weddings, but I know cake, so I was really excited to see two delicious looking cake stalls side by side. The first, Proper Patisserie, had the most amazing macarons in lots of different colours and flavours. A quick visit to their website will have you drooling onto your computer/phone/tablet screen (and the freebie macarons in our goodie bags were sensational!).
The second was the Sticky Sponge Cake stall, who create a more bespoke cake for a variety of occasions. I was so in love with their Alice in Wonderland cake, I'm almost tempted to have a big wedding just so I can have one!
There were also wedding dress, hair, makeup and beauty stalls to suit all different styles and tastes, but I have to confess I was too scared to go near for fear of being pulled in to chat about my wedding! There were also a number of amazing photographers, with work to suit all styles of wedding, from fun photography to the more traditional-literally everything you could ever want for your wedding!
The day was wrapped up with a runway bridal show, featuring bridal dresses from a whole host of designers, men's suiting, bridesmaid dresses and slightly more alternative gowns. I love a runway show and was really surprised to see such a diversity of styles available.
So, to the verdict...Belle Bridal are great at putting on a wedding fair! It was fun and quirky and I absolutely loved the fashion show! If you're a bride that wants all the bells and whistles for your wedding, a wedding fair is definitely for you. Bravo to Belle Bridal for pulling out all of the stops; it was such an interesting day!
If you're looking for a wedding fair to go to, Belle Bridal's up and coming events can be found here .
PS-if you're looking for an alternative wedding dress, check out my post here!
Your photos are brilliant! Every bride is different and I LOVE that your day is just going to be about the two of you, so easy to get lost and swept away with the faff that comes with a wedding and whilst I loved the faff, I definitely lost sight of the bigger picture a couple of times!

Keney Park to Host Junior PGA Championships
NORTH STONINGTON, Conn. (November 19, 2018) – PGA of America District I Director Noel Gebauer sat among 135 Connecticut Section PGA members at the local organization's action-packed Annual Fall Meeting at Lake of Isles Golf Club.
Gebauer, one of 14 members of the national PGA's Board of Directors, had the honor of sitting next to and sharing featured speaker's status with Suzy Whaley, who received a standing ovation when introduced for her first public appearance since being inducted as the first female president of the PGA of America on Nov. 9, in Palm Springs, Calif.
Gebauer represents the Connecticut, Northeast New York and New England PGA sections and attends six meetings annually, plus spends 30 days with the PGA's Board of Directors. The general manager at the Town of Colonie Golf Club in Albany, N.Y., and other district directors have three-year terms with the mission of serving PGA members and growing the game.
"I'm a conduit between the national board and three sections," Gebauer said. "I always want to be foremost in golf and all the facilities. I try to be as educated as can be and help with education that's part of employment."
Whaley, 51, was named the first female PGA officer (secretary) in 2014, and she and the Section will host the national annual meeting at the end of her two-term term on Oct. 25-30, 2020, at the Connecticut Convention Center in Hartford.
Two days after her induction, Whaley was back at work as a PGA Director of Instruction at the Country Club at Mirasol in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla. After a week at Mirasol, she flew to Connecticut for the Connecticut Section PGA Professional Hall of Fame Induction and Champions Tribute dinner on Sunday night and headed back to Mirasol on Monday night.
"It has all been so surreal," said Whaley, the mother of two daughters/golfers who is also PGA Director of Golf for Suzy Whaley Golf in Cromwell. "I missed coaching and teaching and was fortunate to get involved with Mirasol, which is one mile from PGA of America headquarters and three miles from our house."
"I just feel so incredibly honored and fortunate to be president. The PGA offered me opportunities that I don't think I can give back as much, but it's a privilege to try."
Fifteen Section members, family and friends attended Whaley's induction, and witnessed the nomination speech by former Hartford Golf Club Golf Professional Gary Reynolds, a PGA Life Member who has received virtually every Section award and who also gave Whaley's Secretary nomination speech 2014. Most of the Section members surprised Whaley when they dressed in the same uniforms and wore Tar Heel blue socks, the color of North Carolina, her alma mater.
"That was kind of cool," Whaley said with a smile.
Whaley, who played on the LPGA Tour in 1990 and 1993, said she "held it together" during her acceptance speech until she talked about her mother and family. Her mom, Mary Ann, taught Suzy how to play starting when she was nine, and her daughters, Jenn and Kelly, are accomplished players. Jenn, 23, is a former captain of the Quinnipiac University women's golf team and now plays "social golf" while working for Aetna Insurance. Kelly, 21, is a three-time winner of the Connecticut State Women's Amateur who was ranked 20th in the country in her final year at the International Junior Golf Academy in Hilton Head, S.C., before heading off to mom's alma mater on a full golf scholarship. This spring, Kelly had a school-record 73.24 stroke average that included shooting a record 12-under-par 204 to break her own UNC record for 54 holes in leading the Tar Heels to a five-stroke victory in the Briar's Creek Invitational at The Golf Club in Briar's Creek at Johns Island, S.C. She also shot every round in the 60s, a first for a Tar Heel. Then in June, Kelly shot her first bogey-free round, a women's course-record, 5-under 65, at Keney Park Golf Course in Hartford, for a 36-hole total of 7-under 133 and a five-stroke victory over another amateur, Linda Wang.
Suzy met her husband Bill after earning her LPGA card in 1990. She was on a golf lesson at Inverrary Country Club in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and Bill happened to have been a coach for one of Suzy's closest friends. They have been the major influences and teachers for their two daughters, and Bill is now national director of golf for PGA Tour Facilities, which includes 21 locations. Locally, there's TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, home of the Travelers Championship, and TPC Boston in Norton, Mass., the former home of a PGA Tour event.
I have a lot of pride and always wanted to be recognized for my body of work," Whaley said of her decision to make PGA of America history. "I'm very appreciative for what everyone has done for me and support everyone in the room and my family."
Whaley said she first thought about running for office in 2013, when her term as a member of the Section's Board of Directors ended in 2013.
"A lot of people asked if I'd be interested," Whaley recalled. "There were people who saw something in me, and Gary (Reynolds) was my campaign manager. I have a real passion that I hope to pass on because I can't do it alone. I'm very appreciative for what everyone has done for me. … It has been an incredible journey since I became a member of the Section Board of Directors. I don't underestimate the responsibilities and take everything very seriously."
Becoming president of the largest sports organization in the world of more than 29,000 members capped decades of publicity for Whaley, starting with winning the 2002 Connecticut Section PGA Championship that made her the first woman to qualify for a PGA Tour event in 57 years, the Greater Hartford Open, now Travelers Championship. In 2014, Whaley became the first female to be elected a PGA of America officer in the 102-year history of the association. Now Whaley has joined former U.S. Golf Association president Judy Bell and former LPGA commissioner Carolyn Bivens as the only women to hold the top position in a golf association.
In a major coup for Hartford, the PGA of America announced Keney Park will host the Boys and Girls Junior PGA Championships in 2019. The Girls Championship will be played July 9-12, while the Boys will tee it up July 30-August 2. Each event features 144 players in a four-round, 18-hole stroke-play format. The Connecticut Section PGA Foundation underwrote $75,000 for the event.
"It is a thrill for both Championships to be held in Connecticut for the first time," Whaley said. "Both Championships continue to reach new heights each year. We are excited to partner with Keney Park, the Connecticut PGA Section, and the City of Hartford to showcase the game's brightest junior players competing at the highest level."
Keney Park opened in 1927 with a nine-hole course designed by Devereux Emmet; the Robert "Jack" Ross-designed back-nine opened four years later. In 2014, the Connecticut Section PGA signed an agreement to serve as consultants to help Hartford regain operational ownership of both Keney Park and Goodwin Park golf courses, while assisting with the oversight of a $5 million Keney Park course restoration to enhance the facility's level of sustainability. Keney Park and Goodwin Park hosted the Hartford Women's Open the first two years.
"This will be the maiden voyage for the Connecticut PGA Section with respect to hosting PGA of America championships, and we cannot be more excited to welcome the nation's most talented girls and boys," said Tom Hantke, who is in his 25th year as executive director of the Connecticut PGA Section. "We're not only proud that we've been chosen to host these prestigious championships, but we're equally appreciative to be able to showcase the restoration of Keney Park as part of the revitalization efforts ongoing in the City of Hartford. It has been one of the original and central purposes to re-establish a first-class golf experience to help lead the way to improving the quality of life."
Hartford Mayor Luke Bronin said, "Next summer will be exciting as local spectators will have the opportunity to see some of golf's brightest future stars play on the Keney Park Golf Course. We look forward to these young competitors and their families visiting our City. Golf has a long tradition in the city of Hartford, and these two premier events will add to our story."
Keney Park is led by PGA Director of Golf Peter Seaman, who has been on the staff since July of 2015. The golf course was recently ranked by Golfweek as the No. 2 to play in Connecticut, as well as tied for first on Golf Inc.'s 2016 Public Renovation list.
Both Championships have been springboards for many of the PGA and LPGA Tours' most accomplished players. Tiger Woods, Jordan Spieth, Justin Thomas and Phil Mickelson competed on the Boys side, while past Girls Junior PGA winners include Inbee Park, Ariya Jutanugarn and Lexi Thompson.
Yealimi Noh won the 2018 Girls Junior PGA with a dominating, record-setting performance at Kearney Hill Golf Links in Lexington, Ky. Akshay Bhatia became the first two-time winner following his victory in the 2018 Boys Junior PGA, which was secured with a greenside chip-in eagle on the 72nd hole at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Ky. Bhatia also won in 2017. This past September, both players teamed up on the triumphant United States Team in the 2018 Junior Ryder Cup at Disneyland Paris.

Q: How to get absolute path of file in Android If I have two files, MainActivity and FileA. Both are in the same directory. FileA is already created, it's not being created on the fly. How do I get the absolute path of FileA from inside MainActivity?
class MainActivity {

    private void getPath() {
      // String path = absolute path of FileA
    }
}

A: you can't get the path of anything within the src directory...
in best case, you could get a path for the assets and res/raw resources.

I arose before the sun, broke camp, and repacked the buggy. I left the secluded courtyard at the First Baptist Church hit the side streets. I made my way through town.
I started putting in the miles.
It was a beautiful day and I took pictures.
By mid morning I reached D'Hanis. I stopped for a large powerade from Stripes. They have a pretty good deal: a half gallon cup for fountain drinks for $1.99. I go there when I can.
I hydrated, broke my little roadside camp, and got back on the road.
These kids were all about adventure! They pulled up roadside, asked me a bunch of questions, and peeled off under the overpass. Summer vacation.
I took a break at a rest area along Highway 90 during the heat of the day. It was good rest!
Back on the road, it started to rain. It was a sun shower! People driving by on the 90 must have thought I was some sort of crazy person. It washed away the heat and stress. I couldn't contain my joy. It was so refreshing!
I reached Uvalde County line.
I passed into Sabinal. It was Sunday, and once again I kept my mileage low. I hung outside a market for a while and talked with my family through text, messenger, and phone call. It felt good to chat with my sister Emily.
I made my way to St. Patricks on the north side of town. I met Fr. Antonio! He allowed me to stay under a pavillion on the property, gave me water, and opened up bathrooms at the parish hall for me to use! He was a nice man. Wish I got a picture of him.
I fell asleep in my hammock watching the near full moon. Stray cats fighting on and off throughout the night, reminded me of Alabama!
This looks like Our Lady of Fatima and the children of Fatima in the photo. Keep up the good works!

Africa has long been a favorite destination for safaris and hot air balloon flights over migrating herds but now the hospitality and tourism industries are exploring new locations to cater for luxury traveler's increasing appetite for adventure.
"African tourism has evolved significantly in the last decade with a new wave of young, affluent travelers, as well as the so-called baby-boom generation, fueling demand for high-end experiential travel," explains Xander Nijnens, head of Sub-Saharan Africa Hotels and Hospitality at JLL.
People want authenticity but they also want novelty. And when it comes to luxury travel, there's also the exclusivity factor.
While established hotels with sweeping views of the surrounding landscape and watering holes continue to attract steady flows of guests, more nomadic options such as luxury camping and integrated lodges are becoming increasingly popular.
And of course, the natural wilderness and eye-catching designs of many new developments lend themselves well to social media.
Countries across Africa are playing to their strengths in what they offer luxury travelers. In Rwanda, that is gorillas, and with the price of a trekking permit to visit them in their natural habitat doubling to US$1,500, the country is targeting lower numbers of high-spending guests – an approach also taken by established luxury destination Botswana.
"Unlike South Africa or Kenya which have several big tourism draws dotted around the country, Rwanda needs to make the most of its main attraction," says Nijnens.
And where high-spending tourists in search of the natural touch go, luxury hotels are not far behind. In Botswana, camping tents with luxury bathrooms in a "semi desert" setting have been created by the owners of Jack's Camp. In Rwanda, for example, Bisate Lodge in Rwanda, which opened in 2017 and is built into a volcanowith exterior walls made from woven natural materials.
The use of raw materials such as wood and clay is not just aesthetic, with environmental impact also a factor. Some countries are moving towards hotel concepts which minimize the effect on the very landscape many tourists are there to visit. In the Seychelles, which was visited by almost 350,000 people in 2017, a 15 percent rise on 2016, a major tree-planting effort is underway and a moratorium was last year put on construction of new hotels across the archipelago.
South Africa's non-profit Grootbos Foundation,which runs a range of luxury accommodation, has worked with – rather than against – the environment by planting trees, while also educating locals through its college and tuition schemes.
That does not mean more classic hotel concepts are completely left behind, however. In gateway cities, hotel chains and independent operators are also benefiting from travelers looking for high-quality accommodation.
In Kigali, Radisson Blu launched a new 292-room luxury complex in 2016, with the Marriott group also opening in the Rwandan capital in 2017, its first in sub-Saharan Africa. Demand for city stays is being met by major global operators, as well as smaller boutique concepts, such as the Silo Hotel in Cape Town, Saxon Hotel in Johannesburg, and Hemingways in Nairobi.
And with the global luxury travel industry set to generate more than $1.1 trillion by 2022 according to Allied Market Research, competition for high-spending guests is only going to increase. For all those involved in the luxury tourism industry in Africa, the pressure is on to offer new and exclusive experiences while having a positive impact on both nature and their surrounding communities.

Football playoffs begin for Griswold and Killingly. How did the two teams get here?
Jimmy Zanor
After suffering some tough losses in mid-October, the Griswold/Wheeler and Killingly football teams buckled up their chin straps and finished the regular season with impressive winning streaks, including victories over their Thanksgiving Day rivals.
Griswold/Wheeler regained the James LeClaire trophy with a 34-0 victory over Plainfield in the annual "clash along county lines," while Killingly blanked Woodstock Academy, 35-0, at Nichols College in Dudley, Massachusetts.
KinKade Rubino scored three touchdowns, while Kiylie Montigny and Kyle Kessler also added touchdowns against Plainfield. The Wolverines lead the all-time series 47-35-5.
"We played very well," Griswold/Wheeler coach Gregg Wilcox said. "The kids were well prepared for what they were going to do. The defense played very well."
After dropping an overtime contest against East Lyme and falling one score short against Waterford, the Wolverines reeled off victories against Bacon Academy, Stonington, Montville, and Plainfield to finish 6-4.
"We had a good year," Wilcox said. "There have been years where you start off as good as you finish. This year we just continually got better as the season went on. We ran into a couple of difficult games with Waterford and East Lyme but even though we lost them there was still a positive because we got better and that's what we preached all year. We needed to get better and we did. It's nice to see when the kids develop."
NFA vs New London Thanksgiving EveNFA rolls past New London, finishes with three-game win streak
Killingly heads to playoffs after shutout against Woodstock Academy
Killingly tuned up for the state playoffs with a shutout against Woodstock Academy at Vendetti Field on the campus of Nichols College.
"Our defense was tremendous," Killingly coach Chad Neal said. "Offensively, we were able to throw the ball really well. We're going to have to be well-balanced in the playoffs."
Killingly senior quarterback Thomas Dreibholz completed 10 of 15 passes for 219 yards and three touchdowns as Killingly (9-1) finished the regular season with a five-game win streak.
Thames River vs Quinebaug ValleyThames River caps perfect 10-0 season, earns home playoff game
Dreibholz threw first half touchdown passes of 65 yards to Noah Colangelo (4 catches, 85 yards) and 24 to fullback Keith Perry. Running back Soren Reif (60 yards in 17 carries) and Ben Jax intercepted a pass from Woodstock Academy quarterback Teddy Richardson (11-for-22 passing,94 yards) and returned it 34 yards to make it 28-0 at the half.
Killingly finished things off when Dreibholz hit Jax (4 catches, 107 yards) with a 39-yard scoring pass on the third play of the third quarter.
"It was a good win," Neal said. "The kids know each other because they play youth football together. So, it means a lot."
Killingly, the third-seed in Class MM, will host No. 6 Wethersfield in a Class MM state playoff quarterfinal game on Tuesday at Killingly High School's Morgan Field. This is Killingly's seventh consecutive appearance in the state playoffs.
"We've got a short turnaround," Neal said. "Now it comes down to being mentally prepared against a formidable opponent on Tuesday."

Law and Order Unites Main Street
Antiques Loot and Get Shot. (Wikimedia Commons)
by Ilana Mercer
The book In Defense of Looting: A Riotous History of Uncivil Action has become emblematic of the times we're living through. Its "thesis" is that looting is "joyous" and can produce "community cohesion." Shortly before the mad-hatter media became hip to the socially redeeming aspects of looting, I briefly blogged, on August 28, about In Defense of Looting not imagining it would become such a hit.
The reason for this early mention was the Economist. The news magazine -read religiously – had dignified author Vicky Osterweil's argument for criminality, calling it "a live debate," which is good English for, "We need to have a conversation." These usually smart people wrote:
A few radical activists, including some associated with Black Lives Matter in Chicago, argued that looting can be legitimate. One woman, protesting at a police station that held arrested looters, called it a form of 'reparations' for white oppression.
Vicky Osterweil, author of In Defense of Looting: A Riotous History of Uncivil Action, published this month, sets out the same argument at book length. Looting by the poor, black or otherwise repressed is a radical tactic that brings welcome change, in her view. Peaceful civil-rights demonstrations are too easily ignored, whereas 'riots and looting are more effective at attracting attention to a cause.' The shared experience of looting can also be 'joyous,' produce 'community cohesion,' count as a small act of 'direct redistribution of wealth' and, she reckons, does little harm to those who have insurance. She thinks it also leads people to question high levels of inequality.
To go by Osterweil's "argument": if looting a man's property is morally legitimate, why not taking his life? Doesn't he have life insurance? When will murder be likewise mitigated with the same degenerate logic? For the specimen we've witnessed foaming at the mouth and in the faces of the police, the act of murder fits on the same continuum of affirmation. Not wishing to appear as though they were prejudiced about the perks of pelf and pillage, the Economist countered with judgment-free utilitarian economics:
[Osterweil's] claims are unconvincing. Those who snatched swag from Gucci or Louis Vuitton in order to sell them on hardly share her anti-capitalist views. Nor is it clear that looting spreads solidarity in poor neighborhoods. The grandmother of the man shot by police condemned the looting. Ms. Osterweil might be right, however, that residents of poor areas, who rarely even set foot in the wealthy central parts of their city, are fed up. Looting is not a helpful way to respond, but the resentment at this disparity is real enough.
Here, the Economist joins the menagerie of morons that is the American media in considering and dignifying Osterweil's political pornography.
Her thinking readers, however, were soon on to her. Late in August, In Defense of Looting still had all but two rotten reader-reviews on Amazon:
"Poorly written, poorly reasoned." One star.
"Garbage: terrible ideas and a terrible book." One star.
Yet it had a rather good Amazon rank. How, you wonder? The rank was likely not market-generated, but due to the corrupt enterprise of university book-buying. State subsidized university libraries have enormous budgets for indoctrination. Just as the colleges have abandoned their duty to educate, so too have publishing giants long since betrayed their mandate to publish quality books. These conglomerate quislings collude to ensure that a lot of dough is forked out for a lot of drek.
Down to its libraries, the American university is a corrupt enterprise. You'll find In Defense of Looting safely ensconced at the Harvard Book Store, and likely other "elite" schools across the country. China might control thinking on its campuses, but can you imagine the Chinese Communist Party instructing its apparatchiks to promote material meant to make the next generation thieving, dumb and decadent? Unlikely, considering that the Chinese have a wicked work ethic, low-crime rates and that criminality is severely punished.
Since that blog post, the book has become the toast of the towns not yet burned down by the putrefying left. Its author, Ms. Osterweil, a welcomed guest on many "probing" programs, presumably to explain her "provocative" "thesis" of theft. Indeed, we inhabit a culture in which high-brow polemics are banned and banished from the public square by grubby, low-brow, social engineers, from Facebook functionaries to the once-august Publishers Weekly: it dubbed Osterweil's debut a "bracing rethink" of something or another.
A new kind of Kafka confronts any author whose thoughts veer from those of the mono-cultural mainstream. Books that enlighten never see the light of day or are digitally burned by the Amazon monopoly; pamphleteers that dim debate find publishers and "respectable" reviewers. Happily, however, Amazon reviewers were having none of the looter lady, who, mind you, merely "identifies as a woman," which is not the same as being a woman (in my non-expert opinion).They have not reconsidered their "bracing" views about Osterweil's immoral enterprise. These book reviews are a riot of hashtags like #violence, #steal, #stupid, #vicky, #waste:
I gave it 2 stars instead of 1 because, while it is empty headed garbage, it was a bargain since I shoplifted it.
Since Amazon doesn't have a physical bookstore from which I can steal this book, will they please implement a virtual looting option? One star.
Sam says 1.0 out of 5 stars: "Garbage: terrible ideas and a terrible book."
Understated, yet "Astounded" gives In Defense of Looting 1.0 out of 5 stars, writing, charitably, that it "seems rather shallow and malevolent."
If you think these Amazon reviews are the work of Russian trolls acting for Trump, "Century Rider" provides a corrective cue: "Want another 4 years of Trump?", writes the reviewer on August 29. "This is the kind of 'reasoning' that will get Trump re-elected."
Clearly, the restoration of law and order and the reverence for private property rights are the most powerful principles with which to unite main-street America, left and right, in the ramp-up to the November election. This is what Republicans must remember, before they scamper down the judicial rabbit hole of abortion. As to the book: here's the true disgrace of In Defense Of Looting: someone read the book, endorsed its publication, someone edited it, someone else set it in type, designed a cover, compiled an index, read the proofs. Now people are reviewing it.
Ilana Mercer has been writing a weekly, paleolibertarian column since 1999. She's the author of Into the Cannibal's Pot: Lessons for America From Post-Apartheid South Africa (2011) & The Trump Revolution: The Donald's Creative Destruction Deconstructed" (June, 2016). She's currently on Gab, YouTube, Twitter & LinkedIn, but has been banned by Facebook.

Greenville is the medical, economic, education, cultural, and industrial hub of Eastern North Carolina. The City covers approximately 35 square miles and has a population of 81,798 (according to U.S. Census data).
Greenville, NC is located in the north central coastal plain region of Eastern North Carolina, approximately 85 miles east of Raleigh, 87 miles west of the Atlantic Ocean, and 265 miles south of Washington, DC.
Greenville was founded in 1771 as ''Martinsborough,'' named after the Royal Governor Josiah Martin. In 1774, the town was moved to its present location on the south bank of the Tar River, three miles west of its original site. In 1786, the city's name was changed to Greenesville in honor of General Nathanael Greene, the Revolutionary War hero, and later shortened to Greenville.
During Greenville's early years, the Tar River was a navigable waterway; and by the 1860's there were several established riverboat lines transporting passengers and goods. Cotton was the leading agricultural crop, and Greenville became a major cotton export center. Before the turn of the century, however, tobacco surpassed cotton and became the leading money crop. Greenville became one of the State's leading tobacco marketing and warehouse centers.

Subversive Verse
An introduction to D. Selby Fing's Perdition: Part One of the Profane Comedy.
I am my father's creation
I have lived my life to continue that creation
But I had to know the extent of his vision before I could focus in on my own
The vision for the Profane Comedy sprang from two sources, one, my father's life, a bittersweet experience, and, two, his reading
Thomas Jefferson, Laurence Sterne, Frederick Douglass, Gertrude Stein, Michel Foucault, James Agee, among them, and most of all, Dante Alighieri
Fing was a synthesizer, a comprehensivist, like R. Buckminster Fuller, a melting pot of his own
His family had fled genocide in eastern Anatolia in 1915 to come to America
His grandparents settled in Philadelphia and found some peace in the Roman Catholic religious community of their neighborhood
D. Selby Fing was born in June 1941, while his father (Arpiar Fing) was stationed at Pearl Harbor, Oahu, Hawaii
Arpiar survived the December 7th Japanese attack, but was, ironically, killed the next day
Fing's mother (Jane Sawyer) left Fing with his paternal grandparents about a year later
Fing was raised to become a priest because his grandmother never considered anything else
Fing was sexually abused by the priests of his, Our Lady of Lourdes, parish in the Donato Roman diocese of Philadelphia
He never knew how to trust or love
He tried to be a good Catholic even though the better he was the worse he was abused
He went to the seminary when he was 19 and had his first mental breakdown, what I now believe was borderline personality disorder, but he never received a diagnosis one way or the other
Society did not help him
He became a reader and he took on a profoundly secular outlook, rather like Walt Whitman, exaggerating himself into the Everyman of the United States of America
He could be grandiose
He often didn't shower
He hitchhiked all over America in the late 60s and early 70s, spending much time in the Southwest, Arizona, New Mexico, California, and northern Mexico
He was an elementary school teacher, but he never kept a job very long
He met his wife, Lilica Del Rio, outside Lordsburg, New Mexico, in 1965, as he was coming down from an epically bad acid trip and hitchhiking back home to Santa Monica from Chihuahua, Mexico; she was driving a beaten-up 1959 Chevy Biscayne, black hardtop
She was fleeing her hometown of Silver City, New Mexico, having been sexually abused by the priests in her family's Saint Vincent de Paul parish of the Roman Catholic diocese of Las Cruces
They drove to L.A. together, lived apart as friends, and married two years later
Fing was a poet, with little faith in his work, or rather, he couldn't bear interpretation of his work, even though he felt it was wonderful
Poetry was the only thing he could focus on that gave him any calm; words, sounds, rhythms, songs; he was an artist who didn't know what he was
I am the younger of Fing and Lilica's two sons
I was born in January 1973; my elder brother, who was also involved in the Profane Comedy project, was born in December 1969
We moved with our parents to Philadelphia shortly after I was born, and, except for his mind, my father ceased to be a wanderer
But he wasn't domestic
Neither was my mother
I have few memories of those early days
Fing had been depressed through each of those final years, full moons being his worst time of the month
He hadn't written much since the move to Philadelphia, and he was tormented about everything: his wife, his work, his children, his responsibilities, his failures
I remember him most as, and the few pictures I have confirm that he sure looked like, a hippie
But he didn't hang around hippies, and his few friends were definitely not hippies, they were fallen Catholic artists, closeted gay men
Fing was not gay; these days, he'd be queer
The priests fucked him up
Sometime in mid-1975, Fing obtained a kind of clarity he'd never known as a writer, provoked by study of the Divine Comedy
He recognized that Dante intended to bring his reader to their own salvation, if they just read and understood his words
He saw Dante's architecture on a smaller scale, laid over American history
He saw himself as the wanderer who needed instruction and guidance, and a school of ironic knocks, to achieve his own salvation, and to bring others on the journey with him
This was the great purpose of his life, this was the gift of all his suffering, the silver lining on the dark, charged, wet, cold clouds of his loneliness
He spent the year from mid-1975 to July 3rd, 1976, working on his Profane Comedy
I believe he found his salvation
On the night July 4th, 1976, he stabbed himself in the chest in a bathtub in our house, and died
I was 3-and-a-half years old
His mystery has occupied all of my life
This mystery was an obsession to my elder brother, who started the annotations to the Profane Comedy, and who struggled with his own mental illness before dying on the second plane to hit the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001
I have taken up the mission of bringing the Profane Comedy to the wider world
Therefore, I've contracted with a fine artist and historian from Seattle, Seth Goodkind, to imagine what those uncanny Fingian words actually look like
Anna Lawton and New Academia Publishing, with some divine intercession from Grace Cavalieri, have agreed the poem is worth bringing to the public
There are two more books of the Profane Comedy, plus an extended set of annotations (from D. Selby Fing Jr. and myself), and a book of short stories, which are based on Fing's life, yet to be published
And I am writing and producing a song cycle, again with the purpose of bringing this amazing, bittersweet, insane, hopeful, allegorical journey to you
I believe it has as much meaning today as it did when it was written; and it's good to achieve your salvation.

#Automate tasks for your Cordova project using gulp
The process of building apps typically involves many repetitive tasks such as compilation, unit testing, UI testing, packaging, deployment, or simply copying files around. By automating as many of these tasks as possible in your development environment, you free yourself and your team to concentrate on more important and creative work while also improving quality through continuous validation.

The central tool for automation is a flexible *task runner* that be configured to run interdependent tasks sequentially, feeding the results of one task into another, and to run independent tasks in parallel.

[Gulp](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=533803) is a popular JavaScript-based task runner with a large number of [useful plugins](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=533790) that control a wide range of common tasks. These means you can define (in JavaScript) and automate just about any process you need. Gulp also includes a built-in file system watcher that can automatically run tasks when files change. And because gulp is built on Node.js like the [Apache Cordova Command Line interface](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=533773) (CLI), the two are highly complementary.

In this tutorial we will cover a few ways gulp can be used with Cordova:

- [The basics: invoke a task via gulp as part of a Cordova build](#basics)
- [Use gulp to build and app](#build)
- [Automatically run gulp tasks when you change files in your project](#watch)
- [Use gulp in a team builds/continuous integration environment](#ci)

## The basics: invoke a task via gulp as part of a  build

To begin using gulp, you'll first install it globally using the Node Package Manager (npm) so that it's convenient to use from both the command line and Visual Studio. Then you'll create a package.json file in your project to reference gulp and other dependencies like plugins, and the create a gulpfile.js to define the automated process.

In this example we'll start a gulp task in Visual Studio whenever a project is built, which you might use to to minify JavaScript code, compile TypeScript, or run CSS pre-processors such as LESS or SASS. We'll also see how gulp integrates with Visual Studio's Task Runner Explorer.

### Install gulp

1. To install gulp, open a **Command Prompt** and type this command (-g means "global"):

    ```
    npm install -g gulp
    ```

	> **Note**: the Visual Studio Tools for Apache Cordova automatically install Node.js and npm on your machine.

2. Create a **[package.json](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=533781)** file in your project root if it doesn't exist. In this file, reference the version of gulp you want to use:

	```json
	{
	  "devDependencies": {
	 	"gulp": "^3.9.1"
	   }
	}
	```

### Install gulp plugins

Gulp itself doesn't do much without plugins to control individual tasks. For this exercise we'll install the [gulp-uglify](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=533793) and gulp-concat plugins. The same steps apply to any others like those for [TypeScript](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=533748), [LESS](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=533791), and [SASS](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=533792).

To add a plugin, first add a reference to package.json (the ~ before a version number means "at least this version"):

```json
{
  "devDependencies": {
 	"gulp": "^3.9.1",
	"gulp-uglify": "^1.5.1",
	"gulp-concat": "^2.6.0"
   }
}
```

Then install those dependencies from either the command line or Visual Studio:

- Command line: enter ```npm install``` and any missing dependencies are be installed automatically.
- Visual Studio: in Solution Explorer, right-click **Dependencies** and then select **Restore Packages**, which simply runs ```npm install``` under the covers:

    ![Restore Packages](media/tutorial-gulp-readme/gulp-4.png)

    > **Note**: npm packages are stored in the **node_modules** folder in your project that is hidden by default in Visual Studio's Solution Explorer. You do not need to add this folder to your version control repository because the packages can always be restored at any time.

### Define a gulp task

With gulp and the necessary plugins installed, we can now define a task to run gulp-uglify on the .js files in the project's www/scripts folder and output them to the min/scripts folder.

1. Create a **gulpfile.js** file in the project root and add a task. Each task is a call to *gulp.task* with a name and a callback that carries out the task:

	```javascript
	var gulp = require("gulp");  // Instruct Node.js to load gulp

	gulp.task("combine-and-uglify", function() {
		   // Code to execute for this task
	});
    ```

	> **Note**: do not use spaces in the name of the task, otherwise it won't run and you'll likely be very confused. The reason for this is that each name is passed to gulp as a command-line argument where spaces cause the one name to be interpreted as separate name arguments.

2. For this task we want to get the list of files in www/scripts, combine them, run them through uglify, and save the resulting file in min/scripts. In gulp terminology, the input files are a *stream* that flows through the different steps in the task. The source stream (a set of files) is defined with *gulp.src*, and those files are then *piped* into *concat*, which outputs a stream with a single file. That stream is then piped into *uglify* for processing, the result of which is piped to an output folder defined with *gulp.dest*:

	```javascript
	var gulp = require("gulp");          // Load gulp
	var uglify = require("gulp-uglify"); // Load gulp-uglify
	var concat = require("gulp-concat"); // Load gulp-concat

	gulp.task("combine-and-uglify", function () {
	    return gulp.src('www/scripts/*.js')
	        .pipe(concat('combined.js'))
	        .pipe(uglify())
	        .pipe(gulp.dest('min/scripts'));
	});
	```

### Run the task in Visual Studio's Task Runner Explorer

1. In Visual Studio, save gulpfile.js and use **View > Other Windows > Task Runner Explorer** to open the Task Runner Explorer where you should see the gulp task listed on the left (if not, click the Refresh button on the far left):

    ![Task Runner Explorer showing the gulp task](media/tutorial-gulp-readme/task-runner-explorer-1.png)

2. To test the task, right click it and select Run; the results from the command line will appear on the right:

	![Selecting a gulp task to run](media/tutorial-gulp-readme/task-runner-explorer-2.png)
	![Results of running a gulp task](media/tutorial-gulp-readme/task-runner-explorer-3.png)

	Check the min/scripts folder in the project and you should see a combined.js file.

	> **Note:** the min and scripts folders will be created if they didn't exist, but Solution Explorer might initially interpret these as build artifacts not show them as part of the project. In this case, Show All Files button in Solution Explorer (shown below), then right-click the min folder and select **Include In Project**.

	> ![Show all files in Solution Explorer](media/tutorial-gulp-readme/task-runner-explorer-4.png)

### Set the task to run before a build

The Bindings tab in the Task Runner Explorer shows four groups to which you can assign any number of tasks. To set a task to run in the Before Build group, right click that task and select **Bindings > Before Build**:
	![Assigning a task to the Before Build group](media/tutorial-gulp-readme/task-runner-explorer-6.png)

### Use bindings in command-line or continuous integration builds

By default, bindings in the Task Runner Explorer work only inside of Visual Studio. Outside of Visual Studio, we generally recommend that you run Gulp tasks from the command line, such as:

```
gulp combine-and-uglify
```

That said, it is possible to assign bindings in Visual Studio and have them apply to builds  initiated from the command line or in a continuous tntegration environment. This is done with a [Cordova hook](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=533744) as described in [this GitHub repo to add a pre-built Cordova hook to your project](https://github.com/Microsoft/cordova-docs/tree/master/articles/tutorial-gulp/hook-task-runner-binding). You can modify this example to meet your needs.

## Use gulp to build an app

Because it can run on Windows or OSX, gulp provides a unified cross-platform build language for automating and testing builds in a team / continuous integration (CI) environment such as Jenkins or Team Foundation Server 2015. You might also prefer to use a gulp-based workflow rather than the Cordova CLI itself.

### Behind the scenes: Use cordova-lib with gulp
For a quick start, we recommend using the [taco-team-build helper module](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=533736) described below. In this section we will outline how this node module uses Cordova internally and how you can use Cordova directly from gulp if you would prefer.

The Cordova CLI internally uses a node module called **cordova-lib**, which encapsulates all of the CLI's core functionality in a series of JavaScript APIs. Cordova-lib is simultaneously released with the Cordova CLI as an npm package and can be used directly from a gulp script.

The following **gulpfile.js**, when placed in the root of a Cordova project for **Cordova 5.3.3 and below**, builds a release version of the app for Android:

```javascript
var gulp = require("gulp"),
    cordova = require("cordova-lib").cordova;

gulp.task("default", function (callback) {
	cordova.build({
    	"platforms": ["android"],
    	"options": ["--release","--gradleArg=--no-daemon"]
    }, callback);
});
```

For **Cordova 5.4.0 and up** the syntax is slightly different.

```javascript
var gulp = require("gulp"),
    cordova = require("cordova-lib").cordova;

gulp.task("default", function (callback) {
	cordova.build({
    	"platforms": ["android"],
    	"options": {
            argv: ["--release","--gradleArg=--no-daemon"]
        }
    }, callback);
});
```

The ```--gradleArg=--no-daemon``` argument is important for build automation scenarios because by default, Cordova starts up a daemon process that can cause your build to appear to hang.

Also, Cordova-lib functions are *asynchronous* which is why the gulp *callback* function is passed as an argument to the *cordova.buld* call.

To see this example in action, first ensure that you've installed gulp as described earlier in
[The basics](#basics), then create or edit package.json in the project's root folder as follows:

```json
{
    "devDependencies": {
        "gulp": "^3.9.1",
        "cordova-lib": "5.3.3"
    }
}
```

Next, run ```npm install``` from the command line to install the dependencies, or right-click **Dependencies** in Visual Studio's Solution Explorer and select **Restore Packages**, as also described in [The basics](#basics).

Finally run ```gulp``` from the command line, or use Visual Studio's Task Runner Explorer to start gulp tasks.

Note: the **cordova** and **cordova-lib** npm package versions do not match for CLI 3.6.3 or earlier. If you need to target these, reference the **cordova** npm package in your package.json file and edit the require statement in the above gulp script as follows:

```javascript
var gulp = require("gulp"),
    cordova = require("cordova");
```

If you're creating an automated build script, you can find a more complete list of considerations by reviewing [Get started with Continuous Integration](./tutorial-team-build/tutorial-team-build-readme.md).

### Use the taco-team-build module with gulp

The [taco-team-build helper module](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=533736) assists with builds using gulp and alleviates various [common problems](./tutorial-team-build/tutorial-team-build-readme.md) when building a Cordova project from the command line, especially in a team or CI environment. It can be used with any number of build systems including Jake, Grunt, gulp, and even from the command line. It also helps you use gulp to build for multiple platforms, as described in the next section.

The taco-team-build repository includes sample gulpfile.js and package.json files, along with documentation. To get started, place the contents of the **samples/gulp** folder from the [taco-team-build repository](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=533736) in your project root. Alternately, create package.json and gulpfile.js files in your root as follows:

- **package.json**

    ```json
    {
        "devDependencies": {
            "gulp": "^3.9.1",
            "taco-team-build": "^0.2.2"
        }
    }
    ```

    If you want to be able to modify the taco-team-build module instead of using the Github version, remove the dependency in the file above, copy **taco-team-build.js** and the **lib** folder from GitHub to your project root, and require ```./taco-team-build.js``` in the gulpfile.js below.

- **gulpfile.js**

    ```javascript
    var gulp = require("gulp"),
    cordovaBuild = require("taco-team-build");

    gulp.task("default", function () {
       return cordovaBuild.buildProject("android", ["--release", "--gradleArg=--no-daemon"]);
    });
    ```

When you run this task (either from the command line or Visual Studio's Task Runner Explorer), the taco-team-build script does the following:

   1. Checks whether a Cordova version is specified in the **taco.json** file. If not, it checks for a CORDOVA_DEFAULT_VERSION environment variable and uses that, otherwise defaults to the latest version.

   2. Locates the Cordova cache by checking for the **CORDOVA\_CACHE** environment variable. If this is not set, the script will try to use the TACO\_HOME location (used by the taco-cli). Otherwise the default locations are ```%APPDATA%\\taco_home\\node_modules``` on Windows and ```~/.taco_home/node_modules``` on OSX.

      >**Note**: You can also set this location programmatically using the module's *configure* method.

   3. Downloads and installs the correct version of Cordova if a matching version isn't already present in the cache.

   4. Fixes missing execute bits for files in the hooks or platforms folder when running on OSX or Linux.

   5. Adds the [Cordova CI Support Plugin](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=533753) to the project if needed.

Within the callback function given to gulp.task function, *cordovaBuild.buildProject* does the asynchronous build step, installing the specified platform ("android" in this case) if necessary. *buildProject* returns a promise to which we then chain other build steps like copying the result of the build.

### Create a gulp script that builds for multiple platforms

It's very helpful, especially in a CI environment, to automate building your project for all target platforms. The gulpfile.js script below provides this flexibility. It builds Android, Windows, Windows Phone 8 targets when run on a Windows build machine, and builds the iOS target when run on an OS X build machine. A more complete version of this script can be found in the **samples/gulp** folder in the [taco-team-build repository](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=533736).

```javascript
var gulp = require("gulp"),
    fs = require("fs"),
    es = require('event-stream'),
    cordovaBuild = require("taco-team-build");

// Setup platforms to build that are supported on current hardware
var winPlatforms = ["android", "windows"],
    linuxPlatforms = ["android"],
    osxPlatforms = ["ios"],
    platformsToBuild = process.platform === "darwin" ? osxPlatforms :
                       (process.platform === "linux" ? linuxPlatforms : winPlatforms),

    // Build config to use for build - Use Pascal case to match paths set by VS
    buildConfig = "Release",

    // Arguments for build by platform. Warning: Omit the
    // extra "--" when referencing platform specific options
    // (Ex:"-- --gradleArg" is "--gradleArg").
    buildArgs = {
        android: ["--" + buildConfig.toLocaleLowerCase(),"--device",
                  "--gradleArg=--no-daemon"],
        ios: ["--" + buildConfig.toLocaleLowerCase(), "--device"],
        windows: ["--" + buildConfig.toLocaleLowerCase(), "--device"]
    },

    // Paths used by build
    paths = {
       apk:["./platforms/android/ant-build/*.apk",
            "./platforms/android/bin/*.apk",
            "./platforms/android/build/outputs/apk/*.apk"],
       binApk: "./bin/Android/" + buildConfig,
       ipa: ["./platforms/ios/build/device/*.ipa",
             "./platforms/ios/build/device/*.app.dSYM"],
       binIpa: "./bin/iOS/" + buildConfig,
       appx: "./platforms/windows/AppPackages/**/*",
       binAppx: "./bin/Windows/" + buildConfig
    };

// Set the default to the build task
gulp.task("default", ["build"]);

// Executes taks specified in winPlatforms, linuxPlatforms, or osxPlatforms based on
// the hardware Gulp is running on which are then placed in platformsToBuild
gulp.task("build", function() {
    return cordovaBuild.buildProject(platformsToBuild, buildArgs)
        .then(function() {
            // ** NOTE: Package not required in recent versions of Cordova
            return cordovaBuild.packageProject(platformsToBuild)
                .then(function() {
                    return es.concat(
                            gulp.src(paths.apk).pipe(gulp.dest(paths.binApk)),
                            gulp.src(paths.ipa).pipe(gulp.dest(paths.binIpa)),
                            gulp.src(paths.appx).pipe(gulp.dest(paths.binAppx)));
                });
        });
});
```

### Build a Typescript project

If you're using TypeScript in your Cordova app project, you can use the [gulp-typescript](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=533748) plugin to compile TypeScript as part of an automated build. Refer back to the [Install plugins](#install-plugins) section for the ways to do this;
```"gulp-typescript": "^2.11.0"``` is the dependency that should be listed in package.json.

The following gulpfile.js loads the plugin and runs a task to compile all Typescript (***.ts**) files found in the project's *scripts* folder, saving the results in a single file **www/scripts/appBundle.js***:

```javascript
var ts = require("gulp-typescript");

gulp.task("scripts", function () {
    gulp.src("scripts/**/*.ts")
    	.pipe(ts({
        	noImplicitAny: false,
            noEmitOnError: true,
            removeComments: false,
        	sourceMap: true,
            out: "appBundle.js",
            target: "es5"
		}))
		.pipe(gulp.dest("www/scripts"));
});
```

The options given directly to the *ts* call above can alternately be saved in a **tsconfig.json** file (as done in the Visual Studio templates), in which case you can use the following gulpfile.js:

```javascript
var ts = require("gulp-typescript"),
    tsconfigPath = "scripts/tsconfig.json";

gulp.task("scripts", function () {
    gulp.src("scripts/**/*.ts")
        .pipe(ts(ts.createProject(tsconfigPath)))
        .pipe(gulp.dest("www/scripts"));
});
```

To point to multiple locations for TypeScript files in your project, create an array as follows:

```javascript
gulp.src(["scripts/**/*.ts","www/typescript/**/*.ts"])
```

Finally, to compile TypeScript first as part of a build task, add a reference to the scripts task:

```javascript
gulp.task("build", ["scripts"], function () {
...
```

The **samples/gulp** folder in the [taco-team-build repository](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=533736) contains sample **gulpfile.js** and **package.json** files that are already configured to include TypeScript.

## Automatically run gulp tasks when you change files in your project

Gulp's *watch* task is a highly useful feature that listens for changes in the file system for your project and automatically start tasks in response. For example, the following task in gulpfile.js will recompile TypeScript code when changes occur:

```javascript
gulp.task("watch", ["scripts"], function () {
    gulp.watch("scripts/**/*.ts", ["scripts"]);
});
```

You'll need to run this task first to start the watching, so either use ```gulp watch``` from the command line or run the task from Visual Studio in the Task Runner Explorer.

## Use gulp in a continuous integration (CI) environment

A continuous integration environment means having a dedicated build server that handles requests from everyone in your team, and perhaps also runs builds automatically whenever code is committed to your repository.

The build server must, of course, have all the dependencies installed, such as SDKs, for your target platforms. See the "Installing Dependencies" section of the [Comperhensive CI tutorial](./tutorial-team-build/general.md) for details.

However you arrange your build tasks, though, it's a simple matter to configure to server to use gulp.

First, follow the instructions on using [taco-team-build](#tacoteambuild) above.

Second, run these two commands at a command prompt:

```
npm install
./node_modules/.bin/gulp
```

Then set the **CORDOVA_CACHE** environment variable to the location on your build server where it should cache multiple versions of Cordova and Cordova platforms. See the [Jenkins tutorial](./tutorial-team-build/jenkins.md) for a specific example.

Note that when building iOS, you may need to unlock the login keychain before building when using a non-intractive build agent (which is common for Jenkins, for example.)  You'll need to extend your script as follows if you run into this problem:

```
security unlock-keychain -p $KEYCHAIN_PWD $HOME/Library/Keychains/login.keychain
```

...where KEYCHAIN_PWD is an environment variable with the login keychain password for the user running the build. In almost all cases this is the same as the actual password used to login to the machine so be sure to take advantage of any secure environment variable capabilities your CI system may have.

Deciding after the events of "Insidious: Chapter 3", this fourth entrance farther (pun intended) investigates the backstory of demonologist Elise Rainier (Lin Shaye), who had been murdered at a memorable twist in the conclusion of their first movie. Here, Elise is initially introduced as a young woman living in a foreboding two-storey home on the outskirts of a New Mexico prison in 1952 where her estranged dad (Josh Stewart) acts as a prison guard. Figuring out that Elise had a gift (or curse, depending on how you look at it) for viewing ghosts afterward, however if she disobeys her father's order to deny her paranormal skills, he protects her from the cellar. It's there she experiences this picture's demon – a tall lanky monster with old-timey secrets for hands – and unlocks a mysterious red door for the creature to cross over into the world.
