Wrestling with the Big Questions That Won't Go Away
Ridley Scott has made a movie about Moses.
I am one of a minority that love theology and film. There are many who love theology and many who love film, but there are few who love them both. It is a rare and special thing. They enrich each other in ways that you must love them both to know and experience.
So when I heard that Ridley Scott was making a movie about Moses, I leapt a little with joy. But before my feet could hit the ground I realised what would quickly follow.
My two worlds were going to collide. I have hid them together in my heart to protect them from the moralistic and the religious, but Ridley Scott was playing an unlicensed priest who wanted to marry theology and film in the city square and I knew that their parents would have none of it. One parent more than the other.
A one-sided war of words would quickly ensue.
It's a war we witnessed with Noah that was followed by a brief battle over a Nicolas Cage mistake that was neither theology nor film.
Now it is one we must endure once again. But perhaps if we play the peacemaker a little early, we can get through the coming storm without a scratch.
I have not seen the film but I want to so much that it hurts a little to have to wait. But here are some early thoughts on Exodus: Gods and Kings in the hope that it will tame the anger of the religious lions and pique the curiosity of the weekend moviegoer.
Great Literature is Timeless
The Bible is beautiful story-telling. Although to the believer it is a true story and to the sceptic it is fiction, what remains is that its characters are timeless, its themes are universal, its drama is gripping and its stories belong to the highest form of literature. Job reveals a glorious form of poetry. Esther is a short story in perfect pitch. Exodus is a monumental epic, evidently worthy of turning into a film for every generation.
I am glad that filmmakers are seeing the story-telling capacity of the Bible writers because it's a simple literary reality—in the hands of an able director, good stories can turn into great films.
Great Literature inspires More Literature
Believers and skeptics have both been inspired by the Bible to create new literature that reveals its beauty and challenges its assumptions. Both believer and cynic have been inspired and angered into writing unrivalled poetry and prose because of the Bible. The biblical themes of faith and doubt remain woven into the stories of our times. They will never go away. Without the Bible, all literature would be a shadow of what it is today.
Artistic License is Necessary
The Bible is written as a story not a screenplay. This is why christian films are so difficult to endure. They simply do not see the obvious need that some creative license is needed to translate a story into a screenplay.
With Ridley Scott's version of Moses, I do not expect to read the story of Moses on the screen. I assume that it will challenge and maybe even subvert some of the characteristics of the biblical narrative. But I can tell you without watching it, that it will be intriguing and interesting.
If you plan to watch the film, take some time today to read the story told in Exodus 1-15. It will only enrich the experience of seeing a story turn into a screenplay.
Grace is Better than Anger
I enjoyed Noah because I felt it was true to the heart of the themes in Genesis, despite taking a very generous slice of artistic license. I thought it was inspiring and it lifted my heart and soul. I have not watched Moses but early signs lead me to believe that it will challenge the biblical narrative in more ways than I can prepare for it.
If that happens tomorrow, we should remember that the best thinkers are those who can spot an opportunity for reasonable conversation even in the midst of madness. All unreasonable thinking is a shadow of reason, so that in every unreasonable idea there is a hint of reason. A good thinker can sniff out this hint of reason in any idea and build a bridge to a clear view of truth.
Good thinkers like to build bridges to reason instead of burning them with anger. They know that Jesus is full of grace and truth, so that any kind of truth that is spoken without grace has lost the right to be called the truth.
Movies are Magical
I have known movies to be my friend and the theatre to be a second home. Even if Ridley Scott offends my sensibilities tomorrow, I promise to forgive him and thank him for honoring a story that I cherish so much in a place that I love so much. Even if I see too much artistic license in the new interpretation of Moses, the previews have revealed enough to know that I will be lifted in my spirit and perhaps even brought to tears to see a story I love so much being brought to the screen with such creativity and beauty.
Religious Fury is Embarassing
Times like these often turn christian love into visceral hatred. The Bible turns into a blunt object of assault. Self-appointed prophets turn into trolls. Weak evangelists preach a false gospel of condemnation. It's all very embarrassing and it makes me want to crawl under the bed and cuddle up with a teddy bear until my parents stop fighting with each other.
Let's not do that tomorrow. It's a movie. Let's remember that what is true of all stories turned into film yesterday will be true of Exodus tomorrow.
The book will always be better than the movie.
ADDITION: Here is a review of Exodus: Gods and Kings (with spoilers) by Krish Kandiah—president of London School of Theology and founder of Home for Good, a start-up charity helping to find adoptive and foster homes for children in the care system.

Agreed. And after all that is said. I'll like to see a movie made on David too (the story after he was made King and the politics that followed). I'd really like to watch that one.

So what do you do when the sitcom you write and star in is one of the Beep's biggest hits in years.? The awards are flooding in, the show's being sold across the world and it's seen you crowned as Britain's funniest woman. Why, you sit right down and knock out another batch of episodes to cash in on the cliff-hanger ending of the third smash-hit series, don't you? Not if you're Miranda Hart you don't. To the dismay of millions of viewers -- and the BBC bean--counters -- Miranda announced in July that she had no plans to make a fourth series but that 'a couple of specials' would be made. And sure enough, in September, Sarah Harland -- who plays Miranda's best friend Stevie -- revealed they'd be filming two Christmas specials, with Miranda herself later confirming they would indeed mark the end of the show. She went on to admit bringing the curtains down was "going to be really emotional" but she didn't want her sitcom alter ego "to keep falling over and making a fool of herself. And let's face it, falling down is a staple of the show's comedy with Ms Hart -- all 6ft 1in of her -- demonstrating mastery of the pratfall. "When I wrote the first series, I wasn't thinking: 'This character's going to fall over a lot,'" Miranda admits. "It just happened naturally in rehearsal. If people think slapstick's uncool, I defy them if they see someone falling over in the street not to laugh. "I just go for it like a child. I think I'm quite elastic but I'm covered in bruises. I was clumsy but i'm better now. Or I don't care now. But I was as a teenager, my limbs are too long. It was obvious from the start that Miranda the character was close to Miranda the person, perhaps with the dippy factor slightly exaggerated, and she admits it is semi--autobiographical, with many of the incidents in the show having happened in real life. When she had her hair cut short, she did, for example, spent a lot of time being mistaken for a man and has been called sir on many occasions. But she did once go to a disco dressed in true Dynasty style but with bread rolls in place of the more normal shoulder pads. Well probably never know and Miranda admits "I like the idea of people not knowing where the dividing line is. That's really annoying, isn't it." "Obviously she's a character I'm playing, she's a clown. I suppose people see the sitcom persona and wonder how much of that is me." Miranda's is an unashamedly old fashioned sitcom, which is no surprise when you realise who her comedy heroes are. She says: "I always wanted to get into comedies, ever since I can remember. I saw Eric Morecambe and I thought: "I just want to do that." "I found it truly inspiring every time I went through the BBC Television Centre gates knowing my television heroes once trod the same path. "These were the studios Morecambe and Wise, The Two Ronnies and all the greats filmed. Without their work, my life would be a duller place." And last year she presented a one off interview show with another of her idols Bruce Forsyth, which very clearly demonstrated her genuine love for the veteran entertainer. Miranda, once handed a trial for QPR ladies' football team in her 20's will be 42 in December and spent years endeavouring to be an overnight success. She tok her one--woman show to the Edinburgh Fringe and appeared in comedy clubs and several sitcoms before getting her own series, Miranda Hart's Joke Shop, on Radio 2, which she developed into the TV series. And fans needn't worry, she's still going to be on our screens, notably as Camilla "Chummy" Fortescue-Cholmondeley-Brown in the BBC hit drama Call The Midwife. Her character's might be a bit of a mouthful but Miranda herself is actually Miranda Hart Dyke -- she dropped the second bit of her surname for her showbiz moniker. Though she hates saying she has an aristocratic background -- and does not consider herself to be upper class -- that's exactly what she is. Her mother is the daughter of Sir William Luce, formerly the British Governor of Aden, while her family tree on her father's side can be traced back to the 12th century, with her aunt and uncle living in the historical family seat of Lullingstone Castle. Well, Miranda's definitely our queen of comedy.
Interfering mother is so much fun.
I'll be quite honest, for me the real star of Miranda is Patricia Hodge, writes Alan Shaw. And that's not just because I was utterly smitten by the quintessential English rose when she stared as the murderess Lady Hanbury in a 1989 Morse. No, she's just absolutely sensational -- and wholly unbelievable -- as Penny, Miranda's interfering middle-class mother who alternates between being embarrassed by her daughter and humiliating her herself. The two are a dream double act and no wonder the pair both received Best Actress nominations a the 2010 Monte Carlo Television Festival. Penny's missions in life were to find Miranda a man and a better job -- all the better to impress her fellow W.I. members -- and she'll stop at nothing, even holding up a placard offering to pay someone to marry Miranda. Such fun!.
Dad's a hero to Miranda.
In Miranda, the titular star's father is played by veteran Scot's actor Tom Conti, writes Alan Shaw. In reality, her father was Captain David Hart Dyke, a highly decorated former Royal Navy Officer who served with distinction during the Falklands War. Miranda was just 9 when her father sailed for the South Atlantic as commanding officer of HMS Coventry. The destroyer was on radar picket duty on May 25, 1982, when she was bombed by Argentine jets, capsizing 20 minutes later with the loss of 19 men. Hart Dyke was burned quite badly but recovered, and continued his career in the Senior Service with diplomatic posts in Washington before being appointed a naval aide de camp to the Queen in 1988. This wasn't the first time he'd encountered Her Majesty, having served on the Royal Yacht Britannia for two years in the late 70's, after which he was made a Member of the Royal Victorian Order. Miranda says: "He was just Dad at home, not Mr Naval Captain. He's not Captain Von Trapp, there were no whistles".
.Her debut comedy stand-up tour enjoyed see-out success and made at least 7£ million. But while Miranda Hart's fans loved her live show, it may surprise them the comedienne was not having a good time at all -- and was even slightly embarrassed. The 41 year old said: ""Stand-up, as a genre doesn't really suit my personality. I'm ultimately a bit introvert, and I have found the pressure of just me in such vast arenas a bit overwhelming. Miss Hart's tour, which took her around the country and also to Australia, included dates at London's O2 and the Manchester Arena, two of the UK's largest indoor venues. She made at least £6.9 m from the My, What I Call, Live Shows, based on figures from 33 shows, six of which were a sell out. There were 49 shows in total, with eight dates added by demand. But she told BBC'S radio 4 Woman's Hour yesterday: "I'm an introvert. So I don't feed of the audience. I find it quite stressful, and slightly embarrassing, weirdly. I was thrilled people loved the show. But I was only really doing it for them not for me."
Her can't-be-bothered attitude to beauty has always been part of her charm. But these days, with a flattering new hair style, pared down figure and stylish clothes it seems Miranda Hart is taking her looks very seriously indeed. Her glamorous makeover at 42 is part of her attempt to make a name for herself in Hollywood. She showed of her new look on the Graham Morton Show where she also spoke of her ambitions. 'the phone isn't ringing off the hook, but I'm not going to lie. I would love the opportunity to go out there for a few months and potter about on a film set and do the odd scene' she said. 'That would be lovely and I'm yet to achieve my dream of doing a scene with Mathew Perry. ' She appeared on the chat show to promote her latest film Spy, in which she stars with Jude Law. Her new image - complete complete with a fringed and layered bob - is rather more polished than the chaotic of her TV persona in the UK comedy, Miranda. It's not the first time she's changed her look. In 2012, after Tattler magazine gave her a glamorous makeover, she insisted she was glad not to be a 'stereotypically beautiful' woman.
I have just obtained a copy of Miranda's book Is It Just me ? Once I read it I'll put some comments here.

I have been doing this for a long time. Clean Canvas Laser wasn't voted Best of Houston 2014 if we really weren't the best. Upon arrival you will be greeted and made to feel comfortable. We look to be the optimal Bellaire tattoo removal for you.


Grizzly serves to retain the ore exceeding a certain diameter with a wire netting and then crushed to fall into a tank. Reading the level of this tank is made with an Optech laser. The Optech laser has a very narrow beam that allows it to read between the wire netting of Grizzly. Its unique Optech pulsed system allows it to read through dust.
Level switch in the underground passing of ore.
In the underground passages of ore called "Ore Passe", the excess must be controlled. This measurement is performed with Thermo gamma level switches. The gamma system is a very long use system (20-30 years). It is very expensive and dangerous to replace these systems. That is why it is best suited and recommended for this application.
To measure the ore pulp density, Thermo's gamma system is the most suitable system. It is installed outside of the pipe. This protects the system against abrasion, high temperatures and corrosiveness of the process. It has a very long life and the measurement is very stable.
The concentrator liquid waste is sent to the mud lake. A pH reading is essential to control releases to the environment and prevent spills. This information can also be transmitted by a Elpro wireless system because of the long distances between the mud lake and the concentrator.
The concentrator uses a lot of water. It is important to know the amount of water that is sent from a lake to the concentrator to keep from stopping this process. Foxboro's magnetic flow meter allows reliable reading of this application, even if the pump introduces rock particles in the pumping line.
Air flow measurement for underground equipment is critical. Foxboro's vortex is designed for this measurement. You can have the volumetric flow and, if you want, you can also convert it into mass flow using a pressure transmitter, temperature and mass calculator. The mass flow is very accurate and it is compensated for underground air temperature variants.
Underground, the ore that is extracted is accumulated in a main tank before being mounted to the surface and processed. The measurement in this tank is done with an Optech laser designed to read the level even if there is presence of dust. These tanks are generally very high. Laser technology has no difficulty with these same distances even when installed in a measuring angle.
Vibration measurement on fan surface.
In mines, underground ventilation is done with gigantic surface fans. When the ore is detonated to extract it, the blast of the explosion rises to the surface following the surface air supply lines. The breath can damage the blower propellers when passing. By installing a vibration sensor, it is possible to perceive the force of the explosion that goes back to the fan and thus reducing it's speed in order to reduce vibration. Once the breath is passed, the vibration decreases and the fan can regain its initial speed without any damage.
The guard at the entry of the mine must check multiple entries simultaneously. Dimetix's laser allows it to advise the guard of the approach of a vehicle at one of the entrances of the mine without being obliged to constantly check the monitoring screens. This improves the time of entry and reduces the traffic on the roads of the mine.
Communication between various mine wells.
Many mines have several wells to extract the ore. The construction of these wells being of different generations, the communication and interface between the wells are very difficult. The Elpro wireless communication system allows the signal to be sent between wells and also to interface them. If the first well operates with a Modbus communication or RS-232, it is very easy to interface it with Ethernet or Allen-Bradley communication to new wells. Elpro easily does this type of interface.

Apple appeals ITC ruling in Motorola case
On March 16 it was announced (http://macte.ch/QmmYE) that the International Trade Commission had decided, on review, to affirm its initial determination (a recommendation for a decision) that Motorola didn't infringe three Apple patents. Now Apple has appealed the decision, reports "FOSS Patents" (http://macte.ch/etTUs).
All this is part of an ongoing battle between the two companies. Apple has previously alleged that Motorola infringes 24 of its patents (21 of them with Android-based phones, the remaining three with set-top boxes and DVRs), while Motorola previously asserted 18 patents against a variety of Apple products (mostly but not exclusively iPhone, iPad and iPod). Litigation between the two companies has taken place in several different federal courts.
In November 2010 Apple sued Motorola, alleging that the company's smartphone lineup and the operating software it uses infringe on the iPhone-maker's intellectual property. The two lawsuits came after Motorola sued Apple in October 2010 for patent infringement. Motorola claims that Apple's iPhone, iPad, iPod touch and certain Mac computers infringe Motorola patents.

Court has more questions about Silent Sam
CJ Staff
An Orange County Superior Court still has questions about Silent Sam.
On Friday, Dec. 20, Superior Court Judge Allen Baddour denied a civil rights group's motion to intervene in a lawsuit over Silent Sam, the Confederate statue illegally toppled on UNC Chapel Hill's campus in August 2018. The lawsuit in question sealed a Nov. 27 deal between the University of North Carolina System and the Sons of Confederate Veterans organization. As part of a pre-planned settlement, UNC gave Silent Sam to the SCV, along with a $2.5 million trust fund for the statue's repair and display.
The decision, which was kept secret until the day before Thanksgiving, drew public outrage.
The Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, an advocacy group based in Washington, D.C., filed a motion to intervene in the case on behalf of some UNC Chapel Hill students and faculty members.
Plaintiffs didn't have grounds to intervene, Baddour said, but questions remain about the legal standing of the Confederate group that now possesses Silent Sam. Many, including Durham attorney and former UNC Board of Governors member Greg Doucette, have questioned whether the SCV had grounds for the lawsuit in the first place.
Baddour will reconsider the settlement between UNC and SCV once attorneys from both sides file briefings about whether the Confederate organization had legal standing in the initial complaint, WUNC reporter Liz Schlemmer said in a tweet.
The judge may also consider court oversight for the $2.5 million trust fund that has followed Silent Sam, Schlemmer tweeted.

Wilfred Burns (1917 – 25 September 1990) was a British composer of film scores.

Born Bernard Wilfred Harris he was severely wounded in WW2 in 1940. Shot in the left elbow, right hand and left eye he eventually recovered from his injuries and remained a POW until repatriated on medical grounds in 1943. His recovery involved dealing with the complete loss of his left eye along with restoring vision to his right. The injury to his left elbow left that arm shorter than his right and the injury to his right hand required therapy to restore strength and dexterity to the fingers. After recuperation in several German prison hospitals he was able to play the piano again.

"Christmas Evil" Won't Cure Your Holiday Blues
Thursday, December 16, 2021 | Stab Me Gently
By JUSTIN MCDEVITT
Christmas is a pedophile's bribe. A dude with a beard pays off parents by doing their holiday shopping for them to excuse the 364 days of the year when the alleged saint stalks all of their children, leaning into his ultimate voyeuristic fantasies. Before OnlyFans gave us exclusive access to our favorite Twitter Kings, no one but Santa got to watch; Norman Bates, eat your heart out! Santa has such a good PR team that even the parents participate in grooming. As they carol along, "He knows when you've been sleeping, he knows when you're awake," they condition their children to accept without complaint the invasive presence of this ho-ho-ho pervert in their lives. The song may be called "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" but that's just to distract Americans from Santa's uncouth obsession with their youth. If Santa's intentions were anything but horny and selfish he would skip presents and pay down the national debt.
And just like that…I'm dishing on the holiday horror fest CHRISTMAS EVIL (a.k.a. You Better Watch Out a.k.a. Terror in Toyland). Starring Brandon Maggart (OBC Applause), Jeffrey DeMunn (Storm of the Century, The Green Mile), and Dianne Hull (The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking), written and directed by Lewis Jackson.
Christmas Eve, 1947. Two little boys spy on Santa as he drinks some milk and drops off their presents. Young Harry sees Santa engage in some adult cuddles with his mom. Brother Phillip tells him that his father is under that costume, shattering forever the magic of Santa. Harry freaks out and cuts himself on a broken snow globe, what was once his favorite possession. The music emanating from the globe stops, and so does the innocence of childhood…or something. I don't fully understand the logic of this sequence but what it does set up for us is two things: Harry loves the Christmas holiday, and Harry is very, very unwell.
Cut to the present. Harry (Maggart) wakes up like so many of us do: in our Santa suits. As he goes about his morning routine, I looked around to see if there was an air conditioner kept year round in the window, or an abundance of large fans. Not judging him for sleeping in a Santa costume, but wondering instead how he achieved that without sweating to death. He lives in an apartment dressed to the nines in holiday cheer. It's off-putting to those of us who observe Halloween year round, but not so jarring if you know someone obsessed with America's Cult: Disney. My editor is a Disney fan so if you don't hear from me again, this shade is probably why, and not low readership. Adult Harry is a sad, lonely dude who works in a toy factory called Jolly Dream. His coworkers tease him for his new promotion, skewing our outlook. The supporting cast takes turns bullying and pitying him, but why? So far all I'm seeing is a guy whose hobby is advancing in the workplace. The filmmakers want us to think his life is pathetic so that they might better build their villain.
In his free time, Harry spies on the neighborhood kids, jotting down any impure behavior in his Book of Stalking. I did wonder if Fran Lebowitz had her own version: a Book of Disappointments, in which she lists all her grievances. At moments you question if you're in a John Waters film (no surprise that Waters is famously outspoken in his love for CHRISTMAS EVIL). Despite the elements of sex present, Harry is not a sexual character. He may come off as a little crazy-obsessive, but his thoughts are pure. If only he was born in Whoville instead of New York, we might be watching a comedy instead.
The movie ambles along, unsure of what kind of movie it wants to be. I think in part because Harry's descent into madness happens gradually. At one point he hides in the bushes to scare a little boy whose mother then berates the blessed child and says, "You would ruin my night out!" Love that energy, Susan. Harry goes home and gets fully into Santa drag. He becomes feverish as he affixes the beard to his face; shrieking, gasping, near tears. He does everything but say, "Would you fuck me? I'd fuck me." We know that tonight is a transformation, but still no murders have occurred so what could really go wrong here?
During the staff party at Jolly Dream, Harry sneaks down to the work floor to steal all the toys which he plans to dispense to the poor and needy. He drives off with his bounty in a white kidnapper's van with a sleigh painted across the side. As he hands out presents at a local hospital, I question why I am in the middle of the Robin Hood reboot we didn't want or need. When a group of churchgoers tease Harry's appearance (let's dwell in this irony for a sec), he stabs one of them in the eye. God rest ye merry gentlemen, INDEED. In between his murders, Harry continues to hand out presents. That'd be like if Mikey took a break from chasing Laurie to pass out candy in Haddonfield. But Harry doesn't strike me a typical horror baddie – I don't believe he wants to kill.
The deaths are exactly what you'd expect: suffocation by toy sack, throat slitting with a Christmas topper, the usual stuff. As the authorities learn of the mayhem, they urge everyone to "avoid anyone dressed like Santa Claus." The cops wrangle up a group of Santas and force them into a police lineup where everyone takes turns saying, "Merry Christmas." Admittedly, these moments are hilarious, but I don't understand why they're happening. It feels like we're in two movies: a cheeky holiday slasher and a disturbing document of deteriorating mental health and the consequences of not taking mental illness seriously. The lead detective says they've got to "make kids scared again" which has been the Republican Party platform at least since Nancy Reagan was doling out bjs at the MGM studio lot.
Throughout the film, Harry alludes to music. He repeats, "I'm going to play my tune now" in the way Brick in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof drinks to eliminate that pesky "clicking" noise. One imagines it all comes back to the music from the snow globe: Harry's first childhood betrayal. What makes CHRISTMAS EVIL sad is that Harry is unwell, not evil, and there are no systems in place to help him. It is perhaps a flaw in the writing that our Big Bad is so palpably human. The film might have been more successful if he was a proper cold-blooded killer. As he flees a mob, Harry resembles Frankenstein's Monster; misunderstood and villainized. Harry didn't want to kill anybody, he just wanted to be a good Santa in a cruel and uncaring world.
With nowhere else to go, he drives to his brother's house and says, "Everyone rejected my tune." Even Harry knows the jig is up. But what would have happened if Harry didn't encounter those rude churchgoers? He probably would have just handed out presents and gone home to bed, full on milk and cookies. "I knew it was you!" screams his brother before strangling him. Harry survives long enough to drive away, but then he veers off the side of the road. Our last image is the van flying through the air, headed straight for the moon.
Final Thoughts: Although labeled a "Video Nasty" in the eighties, CHRISTMAS EVIL isn't a slasher. It has some gory moments, the eye scene in particular, and because that death happens first, it misleads the viewer into thinking all kills will be like that one. Does this movie seek to capitalize on the holiday theme Halloween started? I don't think so, as Lewis Jackson claims to have written this long before John Carpenter's 1978 delight. This film can't pick a genre. It wants to comment on how most of the world's monsters are man-made. I support that. But then it tries to be clever-clever and, dare I say campy, poking fun at the insidious nature of our most celebrated holiday. It might have succeeded with the latter if it didn't inadvertently make Harry such a tragic, compelling force.

The Environment Court Act 2010 was passed with a view to ensuring the expedited disposal of environmental cases.To that end, itdirects for the establishment of Environment Courts in each district headed by a Joint District Judge and provides that a Special Magistrate's Court also be established in the same. The law facilitates both civil and criminal procedures, encompassing penal sanctions up to 10 years as well as a maximum compensation of 10 lacs. These provisions make for an ambitious undertaking but the courts are not functioning as envisaged because of some obvious loopholes.
Firstly, there is no requirement for a judge of the Environment Court to possess technical knowledge in the field of environmental law, without which proper judicial observation cannot be guaranteed. The Judge of the Environment Court is expected to hear the cases under this Court alongside his general duties, which makes his job particularly cumbersome. Moreover, the environment court cannot take actions suo motu.
Furthermore, people's access to environmental justice is seriously strained by the complex procedural hurdles. The court proceedings can only start in accordance with the written report of the departmental inspector. However, in the case of failure of the inspector to complete the investigation within 60 days of a request, the court may order the investigator to investigate the case or may receive the case directly from individuals without a report. The problem with the former option is that no time period has been specified within which the investigation should be completed.
Sections 10 and 14 of the Act stipulate that a case must be disposed within 180 days which can be extended to an additional 90 days by submitting a written explanation. Multiple subsequent steps are envisioned regarding further delays as well. This, along with the application of the Code of Civil Procedure (CPC) and Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) provisions for the procedural aspects of the cases makes the law ill-equipped to effect speedy and effective disposal mechanism.
To sum it up, it may be said that removing the barriers to the accessibility of the environment Courts and bridging the gaps in its scope and jurisdiction may encourage the courts to realise environmental justice in Bangladesh.

In order to validate the evaluation of sleep using cassette type ambulatory skin potential measurement system (C-SPA), sleep duration variables extracted from 24 h recordings were compared between two groups (16 of the intermediate type and 16 of the evening type) with different sleep-wake habits rated by Morningness and Eveningness Questionnaires (MEQ). Compared with the intermediate type, the evening type subjects go to bed and get up later, have difficulty in falling asleep and more frequently awaken during sleep. Thus, the sleep variables by C-SPA provide valuable information about duration of sleep and differentiate the sleep-wake habits.

John Kinghorn, 76, the founder of RAMS Home Loans, has been charged with allegedly avoiding taxes of more than $30 million.
The Australian Federal Police allege he concealed his beneficial ownership and control of corporate entities.
The AFP says its investigation, which started in June 2009, required extensive cooperation within the Serious Financial Crime Taskforce and with international agencies.
Kinghorn was due to appear in the Downing Centre Local Court in Sydney today charged with one count of dishonestly influencing a public official and one count of defrauding the Commonwealth.
The maximum penalty for these offences is up to 10 years in jail.
The Serious Financial Crime Taskforce is a multi-agency effort targeting serious financial crime in Australia.

This year presentation of the Civic Society awards was combined with the Society's AGM at an event held in the new conference centre at SS Great Britain.
A joint awards panel was formed in partnership with the Architecture Centre and the Junior Chamber of Commerce. Over 20 nominations were received and assessed against a series of criteria.
Projects had to be located within the City of Bristol; completed within the past two years; and visible to the general public. In addition they were required to demonstrate a high standard of architectural design which resulted in delight for occupiers, visitors and neighbours alike.
The Hub, Gainsborough Square, Lockleaze. Commissioned by United Communities and designed by architects Kendall Kingscott, the "Hub" comprises 28 affordable homes, a community hub and business space. The panel considered the building to be inspirational in terms of its massing, choice of materials and detailing.
Clifton Suspension Bridge Visitor Centre. Commissioned by the Bridge Trust and designed by Alec French Architects. Although located over the border in North Somerset this scheme was considered to be umbilically connected to Bristol! The panel admired the self effacing character of this project, marked by stone walls and a limited palette of materials. Windows were positioned to provide intriguing views to the suspension bridge.
Bishop Road Primary School. Commissioned by the school and designed by Batterham Matthews Design Ltd, the scheme involved the provision of a new entrance to this large Victorian school, together with reception and library accommodation. The two storey building provides a landmark in the street building out to the very edge of the school site. The panel admired the choice of materials, the crisp modern design and the improvements to the public realm.
Southmead Hospital. Commissioned by the North Bristol NHS Trust and designed by BDP this is by far the largest of the award winners. Indeed the sheer scale of the new building took time to appreciate and the panel was impressed by the tremendous amount of design skill, experience and energy which had been put into this project.
Each year the Society makes an award to the project which it considers to be of the highest quality in the Architecture and Planning course at the University of the West of England. There are no set criteria for judging the projects but judges Wendy Pollard and Simon Birch attended earlier 'crit' sessions and spent an enjoyable afternoon assessing around 30 different projects of very varying quality and scope.
In 2015 there were some very good candidates, but we had no hesitation in choosing Josh Corfield. As a site the students had been given Sharpness. With the two dominant, contrasting qualities of heavy, declining industry and a sprawling patchwork of agricultural fields and farms – Josh had chosen to present a Farm School. Critical to the future of farming is that those who work in agriculture are skilled and ambitious.
Within current planning policy is the encouragement to develop schemes that inspire young people to take up a career in farming. Josh's scheme gave a clear and coherent exposition of this principle with his design showing flexibility, simplicity and preservation, also adaptability for the future. His portfolio was presented to the highest standards and we wish him well in his future career.

Why we need the endoscope lamp
From the outside looking in, you might think this device could do just about anything.
The device can be placed inside a backpack, worn in a pocket, plugged into a wall outlet, plugged directly into a power socket, or even attached to your phone.
However, this isn't quite the case.
The endoscope is an artificial light source that uses a light source to generate a beam of light.
This beam can then be aimed at a specific object or area, and a light can be transmitted through the beam to produce an image of the object.
That's why it can't be used inside a bag, and why it's not suitable for portable electronics.
What's more, the endoscopic light source does not use the natural sunlight that comes from the sun.
Instead, the light is produced by an artificial source, which can be a portable source like a portable lamp, or a light bulb.
This is because light from the endoscopes bulb comes from outside the device.
This means that the light emitted by the light source comes from sunlight that is not coming from the device, and can be harmful to humans, pets, and wildlife.
So what's the real problem?
There are many, many things that could be harmful.
The most common ones are light pollution and toxic chemicals.
But the endocannium lamp can emit light from multiple sources, including the sun, the sky, and the earth itself.
And these sources can all be harmful in different ways.
Some sources can be beneficial, while others can be dangerous.
Some light pollution sources can cause headaches, nausea, or other adverse effects.
Some chemicals can harm the eyes and eyesight of humans.
And some toxic chemicals can be very dangerous.
Here's a look at what you should know about endocannabinoid lamp pollution, light pollution, and toxic chemical exposure.

Fresh Talent: Heroes For Sale
Adison Whitely (guitar and vocals), Fraser Hunter on drums and Tom Dennison (bass) make up Auckland surf/punk/rock/fuzz/cockrock/garage band Heroes For Sale. Formed by Hunter and Whitely at Green Bay High School only a week before competing in Smokefreerockquest, the band started out as a two-piece.
"At the time we were really into The Black Keys, The Oh Sees and Ty Segall," Hunter remembers of his and Whitely's late high-school years. During the filming of the duo's video for I Wish You Knew Jim Morrison, which featured the band playing in 13 different locations (along with partial nudity, babies, ballerinas, gym bunnies, old folks and instrument destruction), they met Tom Dennison, who became the third member of the band. Released in 2014, the now trio's self-titled EP was recorded at Dennison's house.
The band's upcoming debut album, now expected early in 2016, was recorded under quite different circumstances. They travelled to Australia in September to record at the legendary Studio 301 (which has seen the likes of Kanye, Springsteen and Bob Dylan) as part of winning Converse's worldwide Rubber Tracks competition. A golden opportunity they nearly missed over a communication breakdown.
"I got an email and didn't check it cos I get tons from Converse. They emailed again and I deleted it. Then they Facebooked us, 'Yo it's been a week, have you got the email, are you guys keen to do this?' Strike!"
The eight tracks Heroes For Sale recorded at the Sydney studio are currently being mixed by Jonathan Pearce in Auckland. "We won the musical lottery!" laughs Hunter. With only two months before they were due to hit the studio, new tracks were written more efficiently than their previous material, with the band aiming to record a full album.
"They all pretty much start as jams. Most of our songs start out as funk or some kind of jazzy thing," Hunter explains. "We changed our sound a little bit and sort of our inspiration and kind of our ideas behind the songs. We're a way better band than we used to be."
By the sound of their latest single, Eviction, the trio have taken a more musically and instrumentally complex approach to songwriting, borrowing elements of surf, shoegaze and ambient music. "Now were into bands like Swans and Boris. Me and Adison are really into drone and ambient music. Tom's a jazz bassist so he listens to tons of jazz. We draw inspiration from everyone."
The band's been kicking around in the Auckland music scene since 2011. Whitely and Dennison also play in a couple of other projects, while Hunter hosts bFM's Totally Wired show on Saturdays.
"I hope we go and do cool shit," he enthuses. "I mean, it doesn't really matter, I'm pretty chill just to be part of the Auckland scene. I think we have such a sweet scene."

Details About the talk
I'm a physician trained in infectious diseases, and following my training, I moved to Somalia from San Francisco. And my goodbye greeting from the chief of infectious diseases at San Francisco General was, "Gary, this is the biggest mistake you'll ever make."
But I landed in a refugee situation that had a million refugees in 40 camps, and there were six of us doctors. There were many epidemics there. My responsibilities were largely related to tuberculosis, and then we got struck by an epidemic of cholera. So it was the spread of tuberculosis and the spread of cholera that I was responsible for inhibiting. And in order to do this work, we, of course, because of the limitation in health workers, had to recruit refugees to be a specialized new category of health worker. Following three years of work in Somalia, I got picked up by the World Health Organization, and got assigned to the epidemics of AIDS. My primary responsibility was Uganda, but also I worked in Rwanda and Burundi and Zaire, now Congo, Tanzania, Malawi, and several other countries. And my last assignment there was to run a unit called intervention development, which was responsible for designing interventions.
After 10 years of working overseas, I was exhausted. I really had very little left. I had been traveling to one country after another. I was emotionally feeling very isolated. I wanted to come home. I'd seen a lot of death, in particular epidemic death, and epidemic death has a different feel to it. It's full of panic and fear, and I'd heard the women wailing and crying in the desert. And I wanted to come home and take a break and maybe start over.
I was not aware of any epidemic problems in America. In fact, I wasn't aware of any problems in America. In fact — seriously. And in fact I would visit friends of mine, and I noticed that they had water that came right into their homes. How many of you have such a situation? (Laughter) And some of them, many of them actually, had water that came into more than one room. And I noticed that they would move this little thermoregulatory device to change the temperature in their home by one degree or two degrees. And now I do that.
And I really didn't know what I would do, but friends of mine began telling me about children shooting other children with guns. And I asked the question, what are you doing about it? What are you in America doing about it? And there were two essential explanations or ideas that were prevalent.
And one was punishment. And this I had heard about before. We who had worked in behavior knew that punishment was something that was discussed but also that it was highly overvalued. It was not a main driver of behavior, nor was it a main driver of behavior change. And besides that, it reminded me of ancient epidemics that were previously completely misunderstood because the science hadn't been there before, epidemics of plague or typhus or leprosy, where the prevalent ideas were that there were bad people or bad humors or bad air, and widows were dragged around the moat, and dungeons were part of the solution.
The other explanation or, in a way, the solution suggested, is please fix all of these things: the schools, the community, the homes, the families, everything. And I'd heard this before as well. I'd called this the "everything" theory, or EOE: Everything On Earth. But we'd also realized in treating other processes and problems that sometimes you don't need to treat everything.
And so the sense that I had was there was a giant gap here. The problem of violence was stuck, and this has historically been the case in many other issues. Diarrheal diseases had been stuck. Malaria had been stuck. Frequently, a strategy has to be rethought. It's not as if I had any idea what it would look like, but there was a sense that we would have to do something with new categories of workers and something having to do with behavior change and something having to do with public education.
But I began to ask questions and search out the usual things that I had been exploring before, like, what do the maps look like? What do the graphs look like? What does the data look like? And the maps of violence in most U.S. cities looked like this. There was clustering. This reminded me of clustering that we'd seen also in infectious epidemics, for example cholera. And then we looked at the maps, and the maps showed this typical wave upon wave upon wave, because all epidemics are combinations of many epidemics. And it also looked like infectious epidemics. And then we asked the question, well what really predicts a case of violence? And it turns out that the greatest predictor of a case of violence is a preceding case of violence. Which also sounds like, if there is a case of flu, someone gave someone a case of flu, or a cold, or the greatest risk factor of tuberculosis is having been exposed to tuberculosis.
And so we see that violence is, in a way, behaving like a contagious disease. We're aware of this anyway even in our common experiences or our newspaper stories of the spread of violence from fights or in gang wars or in civil wars or even in genocides.
And so there's good news about this, though, because there's a way to reverse epidemics, and there's really only three things that are done to reverse epidemics, and the first of it is interrupting transmission. In order to interrupt transmission, you need to detect and find first cases. In other words, for T.B. you have to find somebody who has active T.B. who is infecting other people. Make sense? And there's special workers for doing that. For this particular problem, we designed a new category of worker who, like a SARS worker or someone looking for bird flu, might find first cases. In this case, it's someone who's very angry because someone looked at his girlfriend or owes him money, and you can find workers and train them into these specialized categories.
And the second thing to do, of course, is to prevent further spread, that means to find who else has been exposed, but may not be spreading so much right now like someone with a smaller case of T.B., or someone who is just hanging out in the neighborhoods, but in the same group, and then they need to be, in a way, managed as well, particular to the specific disease process.
And then the third part, the shifting the norms, and that means a whole bunch of community activities, remodeling, public education, and then you've got what you might call group immunity. And that combination of factors is how the AIDS epidemic in Uganda was very successfully reversed.
And so what we decided to do in the year 2000 is kind of put this together in a way by hiring in new categories of workers, the first being violence interruptors. And then we would put all of this into place in one neighborhood in what was the worst police district in the United States at the time. So violence interruptors hired from the same group, credibility, trust, access, just like the health workers in Somalia, but designed for a different category, and trained in persuasion, cooling people down, buying time, reframing. And then another category of worker, the outreach workers, to keep people in a way on therapy for six to 24 months. Just like T.B., but the object is behavior change. And then a bunch of community activities for changing norms.
Now our first experiment of this resulted in a 67-percent drop in shootings and killings in the West Garfield neighborhood of Chicago.
(Applause)
And this was a beautiful thing for the neighborhood itself, first 50 or 60 days, then 90 days, and then there was unfortunately another shooting in another 90 days, and the moms were hanging out in the afternoon. They were using parks they weren't using before. The sun was out. Everybody was happy.
But of course, the funders said, "Wait a second, do it again." And so we had to then, fortunately, get the funds to repeat this experience, and this is one of the next four neighborhoods that had a 45-percent drop in shootings and killings. And since that time, this has been replicated 20 times. There have been independent evaluations supported by the Justice Department and by the CDC and performed by Johns Hopkins that have shown 30-to-50-percent and 40-to-70-percent reductions in shootings and killings using this new method. In fact, there have been three independent evaluations of this now.
Now we've gotten a lot of attention as a result of this, including being featured on The New York Times' Sunday magazine cover story. The Economist in 2009 said this is "the approach that will come to prominence." And even a movie was made around our work. [The Interrupters]
However, not so fast, because a lot of people did not agree with this way of going about it. We got a lot of criticism, a lot of opposition, and a lot of opponents. In other words, what do you mean, health problem? What do you mean, epidemic? What do you mean, no bad guys? And there's whole industries designed for managing bad people. What do you mean, hiring people who have backgrounds? My business friends said, "Gary, you're being criticized tremendously. You must be doing something right."
My musician friends added the word "dude."
So anyway, additionally, there was still this problem, and we were getting highly criticized as well for not dealing with all of these other problems. Yet we were able to manage malaria and reduce HIV and reduce diarrheal diseases in places with awful economies without healing the economy.
So what's actually happened is, although there is still some opposition, the movement is clearly growing. Many of the major cities in the U.S., including New York City and Baltimore and Kansas City, their health departments are running this now. Chicago and New Orleans, the health departments are having a very large role in this. This is being embraced more by law enforcement than it had been years ago. Trauma centers and hospitals are doing their part in stepping up. And the U.S. Conference of Mayors has endorsed not only the approach but the specific model. Where there's really been uptake even faster is in the international environment, where there's a 55-percent drop in the first neighborhood in Puerto Rico, where interruptions are just beginning in Honduras, where the strategy has been applied in Kenya for the recent elections, and where there have been 500 interruptions in Iraq.
So violence is responding as a disease even as it behaves as a disease. So the theory, in a way, is kind of being validated by the treatment. And recently, the Institute of Medicine came out with a workshop report which went through some of the data, including the neuroscience, on how this problem is really transmitted.
So I think this is good news, because it allows us an opportunity to come out of the Middle Ages, which is where I feel this field has been. It gives us an opportunity to consider the possibility of replacing some of these prisons with playgrounds or parks, and to consider the possibility of converting our neighborhoods into neighborhoods, and to allow there to be a new strategy, a new set of methods, a new set of workers: science, in a way, replacing morality. And moving away from emotions is the most important part of the solution to science as a more important part of the solution.
So I didn't mean to come up with this at all. It was a matter of, I wanted actually a break, and we looked at maps, we looked at graphs, we asked some questions and tried some tools that actually have been used many times before for other things. For myself, I tried to get away from infectious diseases, and I didn't.


Thank God last week is over! We had snow!!! (the fun part) and car problems (not fun especially on "extreme weather conditions"- which were not extreme at all, but still there was snow and the town was shut down).
So, who's up for some kale? Everybody loves kale, I just started experimenting with it.
I don't like kale chips, that's for sure but I really like it with egg!
This was my breakfast yesterday, today I sote the kale a little bit and if you like kale chips you should try it like that. I liked it both ways, so… follow your tastes.
Cut the shiitake mushrooms in smaller pieces and sauté them in a frying pan with a little bit of olive oil.
When the mushrooms are almost ready, crack the egg in the same pan salt &pepper and cover with a lid.
I like my egg not too runny so I usually turn it on the other side as well.
place the egg and the shiitake on a plate and sauté the kale in a drop of olive oil.


Miso katsu, the fried pork with miso sauce, is the most popular lunch set menu in Kushi Han. We didn't know pork matches this much with miso sauce which was a good surprise for us.
We like the way they simply (or rather directly) put all slices of katsu on top of rice as it seemed they have the great confidence in what they serve. Just the miso katsu with an egg on top of rice.
It has a convincing taste and we really enjoyed it. Few veggie sticks for the side menu and warm soup balance out the set menu and that gives the main dish (miso katsu) tastes even better. We would go back again just for their miso katsu.

Full / Real Name: Constance A. Zimmer
Born: 11 October 1970 (49 years old)
Constance Zimmer is an American actress best known for her roles in the television series Good Morning, Miami; Entourage; Joan of Arcadia; In Justice; and Boston Legal.
Born in Seattle and raised in Newport Beach, California, Constance moved to Los Angeles several years ago and has since acted consistently in commercials, plays, television and independent films.
Zimmer began her acting career in high school productions. Following high school, she was accepted to the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in Los Angeles.
After finishing there, she continued to study with renowned teachers such as Stella Adler and Arthur Mendoza, which quickly led to acting in plays.
Between acting projects, Zimmer earned a living as a professional fundraiser for charitable foundations such as AIDS Project Los Angeles, Tuesday's Child and The American Cinematheque.
After securing some national commercials (her first for Duracell was her most memorable), she devoted herself full-time to her acting career.
Zimmer made her television debut in the comedy series Ellen, and earned kudos (a Best Actress Dramalogue Award) in the Los Angeles play, Catholic School Girls.
More television roles followed, with guest appearances on Seinfeld, King of Queens, The X- Files, Philly, Providence and Gideon's Crossing.
She also had recurring roles on The Wayans Brothers, Hyperion Bay, The Trouble with Normal and The Fighting Fitzgeralds and played a lead role in the criminal drama series In Justice.
She appeared as attorney Claire Simms on Season 3 of Boston Legal. She joined the regular cast in the episode "Lincoln". However, producers chose not to renew her contract at the end of the season.
Zimmer played the recurring role of uptight studio executive Dana Gordon on the HBO dramedy Entourage, from 2005-2011.
Feature film credits include the independent films Warm Blooded Killers, Senseless, Home Room, Spin Cycle and Chaos Theory.
The NBC comedy Good Morning Miami marked the actress' first series regular role, portraying Penny, the witty and burned-out office assistant to Mark Feuerstein's character, Jake Silver. Zimmer's deadpan delivery of zingers earned acclaim across the board.
Zimmer also appeared in the Hallmark Channel movie, Mystery Woman, opposite Kellie Martin and Robert Wagner.

Three Conceptions of Practical Authority
Daniel Star & Candice Delmas
Jurisprudence 2 (1):143-160 (2011)
Authority in Relationships.Jörg Löschke - 2015 - International Journal of Philosophical Studies 23 (2):187-204.details
Authority consists in having standing to make a claim on another person's actions. Authority comes in degrees: persons have the authority to make moral demands on each other, but if they participate in close relationships, such as friendships or love relationships, their authority over each other is greater, compared to the authority of strangers to make demands, as participants in personal relationships can demand more from each other than can strangers. This paper discusses the phenomenon of a relationship-dependent greater authority (...) on a conceptual level. It thereby fills a gap in the literature on the proper theory of authority : while being a common part of our moral practice, relationship-dependent authority has mostly been neglected in this context. It is even doubtful whether the most influential contemporary accounts of authority can accommodate it. As will be argued, neither Joseph Raz's service conception nor Stephen Darwall's second - personal conception of authority are able to. The trig. (shrink)
Coordination Cannot Establish Political Authority.Matthias Brinkmann - 2018 - Ratio Juris 31 (1):49-69.details
One of the most common arguments in favour of the state's authority is that without the coordinating hand of political institutions, we could not achieve important moral benefits. I argue that if we understand authority correctly, then coordination cannot even in principle establish that coordinators have political authority.
Deference as a Normative Power.Andrea C. Westlund - 2013 - Philosophical Studies 166 (3):455-474.details
Much of the literature on practical authority concerns the authority of the state over its subjects—authority to which we are, as G. E. M. Anscombe says, subject "willy nilly". Yet many of our "willy" (or voluntary) relationships also seem to involve the exercise of practical authority, and this species of authority is in some ways even more puzzling than authority willy nilly. In this paper I argue that voluntary authority relies on a form of voluntary obligation that is akin (in (...) some respects) to the kind of obligation one undertakes in making a promise. Voluntary authority depends, that is, on the possibility of taking on certain obligations more or less at will. It is generated through an interpersonal transaction that involves a directed act of deference, on one side, paired with appropriate uptake of that deference, on the other. Deference, in the relevant sense, should be understood as a normative power that is exercised when agents transfer deliberative discretion to others, undertaking directed obligations to treat others' directives as content-independent and peremptory reasons. Voluntary authority, thus understood, is both grounded in and constrained by the equal moral authority or autonomy of the participants, since only autonomous agents have the standing to defer in a normatively significant way.

WATCH: Bill Burr Sings NSFW Christmas Carol About New England Patriots
Comedian Bill Burr is excited about the first-place New England Patriots and the team's recent success appears to have gotten his holiday spirits up in the most on-brand way possible.
The Canton, Massachusetts native and avid sports fan appeared on The Pat McAfee Show Wednesday (December 1) and sang a profanity-laced carol touting his favorite NFL team's recent turnaround to the tune of It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas.
"You know what I've been singing about the Patriots' season so far," Burr asked McAfee, a former Indianapolis Colts Pro Bowl punter, before singing the song, which praised legendary coach Bill Belichick and rookie quarterback Mac Jones, while comparing the 2021 team to the 2001 Patriots team, which won the franchise's first of six Super Bowls.
(VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED: Language).
"It's beginning to look a lot like 2001," Burr sang. "Who is this Mac Jones? And we got Billy f****n' B, working on our f****n' D and all the Colts fans are gonna cry."
Burr then added one more jab at McAfee and the Colts faithful.
"Go f*** yourselves, everybody! I'll see you in Indianapolis," Burr said before signing off, referring to his upcoming comedy show at Old National Centre next week.
The Patriots look to extend their lead in the AFC East Division standings with Monday's (December 6) game against the second-place Buffalo Bills, which will air live on ESPN's Monday Night Football broadcast at 8:15 p.m. ET.

Memorial Day is almost upon us, and with it comes the start of Summer. If you're not sure how to celebrate this year, I've come up with a few Memorial Day activities that might get you started. Whether you're spending it with friends, family, or both, these are all easily doable and will make the day memorable for everyone.
Whether you happen to have a pool, know someone with a pool, or have a local pool you can go to, there's no better way to start off Summer than by in the water. Put on some music, your best bikini, and take a dip. Take a throwback to your childhood and play some classic pool games (hint: Marco Polo). If you're spending the day with family, this is an activity that everyone will undoubtedly enjoy.
As it happens, May is National Bike Month. Get in the spirit of Summer and take a ride through your neighborhood. Biking is a great activity that you can do with either friends or family. Take in the scenery and get some exercise while you're at it, then wind down with a nice meal afterwards. If there's a local bike path, try it out and see what it has to offer. Get those endorphins flowing while also having a great time.
If you'd like to pay your respects to our country's fallen soldiers, head to your local veterans' cemetery. Oftentimes people get wrapped up in celebrating the beginning of Summer and forget that this holiday is about the remembrance of veterans who dedicated their lives to protecting our country. You'll be able to place flags on graves, so take a few with you and take a moment to think about the people who put their lives on the line for yours.
Most towns may celebrate Memorial Day with an annual parade. If you're at a loss for what to do, hit up your local parade and enjoy the festivities with friends or family. This might be a good one if you have kids who are antsy from the excitement of the day. Take a moment to honor the fallen soldiers while also taking part in a parade dedicated to them.
What better way to get together with friends, celebrate Memorial Day, and enjoy good food than with a barbecue? Add an extra element of fun with an eating contest, and watch your friends and family get competitive, all while eating amazing food. You'll really feel that Summer's starting once you turn on the grill and start making some hot dogs and burgers. Barbecues are a great way to bring families and friends together, and can be fun for kids as well.
Most communities host movies at the park every Summer. Check to see if your city takes part in this popular festivity, and if so, head to the movies at night. Bring some blankets, buy some snacks, and snuggle up with your loved ones while enjoying a movie underneath the stars. Since it's Memorial Day, they might even play something American themed.
Which of these Memorial Day activities are you most excited to take part in? Share with friends and comment below!
