The Courtauld Cézannes
26 June – 5 October 2008
"… a condensed miracle of masterpieces …"
"… a landmark in the study of this great artist's work …"
The Courtauld Gallery holds the most important group of works by Paul Cézanne (1839-1906) in Britain. This exhibition presented the entire collection for the first time with major paintings such as the iconic Montagne Sainte-Victoire (1887) and Card Players (1892-5) shown alongside rarely seen drawings and watercolours.
Also on display was a previously unexhibited group of nine autograph letters in which Cézanne reflects upon the principles of his artistic practice. Extensive new research by the Courtauld's Department of Conservation and Technology added fresh insights into the artist's working methods and techniques. This celebration of the Courtauld's Cézannes was the stunning climax of the 75th anniversary programme.
The majority of The Courtauld Gallery's collection was put together by the industrialist Samuel Courtauld (1876-1947) and formed part of his founding gift that established the Courtauld Institute of Art in 1932 as the first centre in Britain dedicated to the study of art history. Courtauld assembled his collection of Cézannes between 1923 and 1929 at a time when the artist was regarded with hostility and suspicion by the British art establishment. It was only in 1925, at Samuel Courtauld's insistence and with his financial support, that the national collections were able to acquire their first painting by the artist.
Courtauld's conversion to the art of Cézanne came in 1922 when he visited an exhibition at the Burlington Fine Arts Club in London entitled The French School of the Last Hundred Years. He wrote later of his epiphany, "At that moment I felt the magic, and I have felt it in Cézanne's work ever since". The following year he bought, for his private collection, one of the most important and complex of Cézanne's late still lifes, Still life with Plaster Cast ( c.1894). Its radical distortion of perspective challenged the conventions of Western painting and prefigured the advent of cubism. A similarly experimental approach is evident inLac d'Annecy. Cézanne painted this work while on holiday in the Haute-Savoie in 1896, writing dismissively of the conventional beauty of the landscape as "a little like we've been taught to see it in the albums of young lady travellers". He rejected such conventions, seeking not to replicate the superficial appearance of the landscape but to express what he described as a "harmony parallel with nature" through a new language of painting.
Courtauld bought works which he responded to personally and intuitively, rather than according to art-historical principles. In addition to major canvases, a number of outstanding watercolours were also purchased. Apples, Bottle and Chairback is a supreme example of Cézanne's mastery of the watercolour medium and is remarkable particularly for its scale and complex luminous washes of brilliant colour.
In 1978 The Courtauld Gallery's collection was further enriched with a group of works by Cézanne assembled by the celebrated Old Master collector Count Antoine Seilern (1901-78). The bequest included The Turning Road, one of Cézanne's largest landscapes. This late work is characterised by an almost abstract treatment of the landscape in patches of muted colours. Seilern's collection also included some fine watercolours and drawings, such as the carefully observed and ambitiously composed portrait of Hortense Fiquet sewing. Cézanne would marry Hortense in 1886. The couple already had a son but the artist had kept the relationship secret from his disapproving father. This drawing was later used as an illustration on the title page of the first monograph on Cézanne, published by the pioneering dealer Ambroise Vollard in 1914.
As well as celebrating The Courtauld Gallery's exceptional collection of works by Cézanne, this exhibition and its catalogue present the findings of a major new technical research project on the artist's Courtauld oils and watercolours conducted in The Courtauld Institute of Art Department of Conservation. Using the very latest imaging technologies, this research has provided fresh insights into the artist's working methods and techniques, in particular his experimental use of colour and line. The fully illustrated catalogue includes essays and individual entries as well as facsimiles of all the letters with new translations.

Ambassador Tom Vens has urged Members of Parliament (MPs) in the Human Rights Committee (HRC) to be a champion for human rights and a driver for change. "We want you to be well capacitated to prepare strong legislations on human rights, which allows us to be in a position to better respect human rights." He was speaking at the opening of a two-day workshop organised by the European Union at the Brookfields Hotel on Monday February 4, 2018 on strengthening the capacity of Parliamentary Human Rights Committee on using International Standards to monitor various human rights abuses and violations. He recalled the importance of the Human Rights Committee in preparing better laws for Sierra Leone, and that they should do it to make sure that human rights are respected, which will be done through the strengthening of their capacity and approaches of reporting on the work of the Parliament of Sierra Leone on human rights. The EU budget finances a specific Instrument for Democracy and Human Rights which supports projects in the area of human rights, fundamental freedoms and democracy. Specifically, this instrument is designed to support civil society to become an effective force for political reform and defence of human rights. In recent years, Ambassador Vens said the EU has funded a series of projects of CSOs that supported Human Rights defence in the country in several issues such as children or labour rights. Mentioning one of these EU initiatives, he said, there is currently an on going project to fight the worst forms of child labour, fight human trafficking and promote decent work. "We have also in the past worked with Prison Watch on improving the human rights situation in places of detention, which involved joint monitoring missions with this committee to correctional centres" he said. In addition, he said, very soon they will be putting clear emphasis on gender-specific projects in order to ensure better access to socio-economic rights and economic empowerment for women in Sierra Leone. More than 90% of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) targets are linked to international human rights and labour standards. The SDGs, he said, will only be achieved if principles of participation, accountability and non-discrimination are respected. Hence the importance of human rights based approach in cooperation and development. Chair of HRC, Hon. Hindolo M. Gevao appreciated the EU for answering to their capacity building call in a bid to strengthen their oversight role. "When I took up office, we wrote several letters asking for support, but that call was immediately harken to by the EU and the Ambassador took the time to visit and to see what our situation is and the training is the outcome of that visit" he said. The public, he said, has seen the Committee very proactive and also in familiarising with stakeholders in the sector, "We took up the challenge in partnership with Prison Watch to visit all the prisons in the country and the report will be laid soon in Parliament." The workshop is a serious engagement with their partners, as 90% of the Committee members are new and coming from diverse backgrounds. "We all have knowledge in other areas and that does not mean that we have knowledge in that specialise area of human rights. So this training will give us insight as to those standards that we are supposed to meet in the discharge of our duties" Hon. Gevao said.

A Place to Learn How to Live
Our Doctrinal Statement - What We Believe
FBC Blog
Ministry Minors
RALPH "YANKEE" ARNOLD, B.A., D.D. - President
Dr. Ralph "Yankee" Arnold accepted Christ as his personal Savior at the age of 18. In 1964 he attended Summer School at Tennessee Temple Schools in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and graduated from Florida Bible College in 1968. He was the Founder and Pastor of Colorado Bible Church in Arvada, Colorado from 1972 – 1987. For 13 years he was Founder and President of Arvada Christian School and Colorado Bible College.
He directed a large youth ministry called "Christian Youth Ranch," for many years with over 200 attending Bible College. The major thrust of Dr. Arnold's ministry is soul winning. Through the years his burden for evangelism continued to grow and in 1987, Dr. Arnold resigned as pastor and president to enter the field of full time evangelism. Dr. Arnold had the honor of sharing the pulpit with Dr. Curtis Hutson and preaching with him for 4 years at the south Texas, Sword of the Lord conferences.
He is known for his clear presentation of the Gospel and his fervent appeal for sinners to be saved. His sermons challenge and motivate Christians to win souls as a result of yielding their lives to Christ. As an evangelist, he speaks out clearly and unmistakably on the issues that affect fundamentalists, warning against compromise with liberals and modernists.
As Pastor of Northside Baptist Church in Athens, Georgia, he hosted the Northside Bible Hour television program for 8 years, and the radio program for 14. In 2009 he became the Pastor of Calvary Community Church of Tampa and took over the Bibleline radio program which was started by Dr. Hank Lindstrom, a fellow graduate of Florida Bible College. Dr. Arnold is now the Founder and primary lecturer of Bibleline Institute.
Yankee has been married over 52 years to his wonderful, sacrificial, dedicated and Godly wife, Betty. Their mutual love for the Gospel of Jesus Christ has been the cause of thousands upon thousands of children being born into the family of God. They have been blessed with 3 precious children and 5 awesome grandchildren.
Dr. Arnold is now the pastor of the Calvary Community Church of Tampa, Florida since 2009. He is the host of Bibleline Radio Ministries over WTBN in Tampa and KLTT in Denver, Colorado.
JAMES B. POLSON, PH.D.
Dr. Polson heard and accepted the gospel at a young age through his Christian family.
When his service in the U.S. Army separated him from his family and Christian friends, and, after military service, as his formal education progressed, he questioned his faith. In 1977, he again sought the truth about God, and, with the help of Dr. Hank Lindstrom, he understood clearly the gospel of salvation by grace through faith. He rejected the secular philosophies he was taught as a young man and gained his assurance of eternal salvation by the work of Jesus alone.
Under Pastor Lindstrom's guidance and teaching, he dedicated his life to the Lord and began to grow spiritually. He attended Tampa Bay Bible College and earned an M.A. degree in Biblical Studies from Dallas Theological Seminary. His Ph.D. degree is in Pharmacology from the University of Missouri. He was Professor of Pharmacology and Therapeutics at the University of South Florida College of Medicine where he taught for 33 years. He also served there in the capacity of Assistant Dean for Research and Graduate Affairs. Meanwhile, he served as Deacon, then as Elder at Calvary Community Church of Tampa where Dr. Lindstrom was Pastor.
Presently, he serves as Elder at Calvary Community Church where Dr. Ralph "Yankee" Arnold is now the Pastor after succeeding Pastor Lindstrom who went home to be with the Lord in October of 2008. Dr. Polson has been married to his beloved wife Nancy since 1959. She is a believer who loves and serves the Lord.
REV. GEORGE A. TRIPP, SR.
George trusted Jesus Christ as his personal Savior under the ministry of Dr. Hank Lindstrom, attended Tampa Bay Bible College and served alongside of Dr. Lindstrom in many capacities; including Chairman of Deacons and in the outreach ministry of Tampa Youth Ranch.
George and his wife have served as Awana Missionaries to Central Florida establishing the Awana Treasure Coast Scholarship Camp. In addition, he also served on the executive leadership team of Awana Clubs International as Director of Communications.
While living in the Chicago suburbs, Dr. Frank Bumpus asked him to join the pastoral staff of Bethel Baptist Church where he served as Assistant Pastor and the Director of Development for Schaumburg Christian School. Upon returning to Florida, he joined the staff of the Christian Law Association serving as a Legal Missionary and Ministry Representative.
In 1996 he and his wife Tina began Grace and Truth Ministry Consulting - a national consulting ministry serving churches, Christian schools, Para-church ministries and mission agencies in providing a vast array of ministry services. George serves in the capacity of the Executive Secretary on the Board of Trustees for Florida Bible College of Tampa.
MR. STEVE YANT
Steve has been a regular church attendee since age three. He was raised in a Christian family where he heard about God's love and desired to know more about the Lord Jesus Christ. His desire to grow spiritually continued for many years as he studied the Bible. In 2001, he heard the gospel presented by Dr. Hank Lindstrom with such clarity that he knew he had to learn more. The message resonated with Steve when he heard that because God loved him, God offered eternal life as a free gift. It was paid for by Jesus on the cross and by simply trusting in the Lord Jesus as his Savior, he could have everlasting life.
The Bible verses seemed to jump off the page as Dr. Lindstrom shared this message at Calvary Community Church. Steve, his wife Ann and family continued to grow in their knowledge of God's word under the ministry of Dr. Lindstrom. Steve dedicated his life and his family to the work of the Lord. Steve soon became a Deacon at the church and currently serves as an Elder at the church. Ann shares Steve's passion for the ministry and teaches both Sunday school and AWANA. Their love of the Lord and dedication to Him is evident by the Bible verse that states "I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth". Their oldest daughter and her husband are the directors of AWANA at the church. His youngest daughter and husband oversee the Sunday school and Youth Ranch ministries.
Steve is thankful to the Lord for the ministry and memory of Dr. Lindstrom. He is equally excited about the ministry under Pastor Ralph "Yankee" Arnold. Steve recognizes that the clarity and beauty of the gospel is the tie that binds the congregation together at Calvary Community Church. Steve and his entire family are thankful for what the Lord is doing in their lives and look forward to continuing their service to Him through Calvary Community Church and Florida Bible College of Tampa. Steve is a respected business owner in the community. He has been married to Ann since 1974.
REV. LEE PATTON
Pastor Lee Patton, of San Antonio, Texas, started serving as a missionary counselor in Indian Bible Camps in 1966. His service while a student at Florida Bible College also included founding the Miami Springs Youth Ranch, which he directed until graduation from Florida Bible College with the Bachelor of Arts degree in June, 1968. Lee was ordained a minister of the gospel on December 29, 1968.
He headed from south Florida out to San Antonio, Texas, where he labored as a youth evangelist from 1968 until 1974. He organized, and delivered the gospel message in some 69 public high school assemblies in the San Antonio area. He organized and directed eight Christian Lifeline Clubs in eight public schools. A result of this effort was a total of some eighty students going from San Antonio to attend Florida Bible College in south Florida. In this period Le was also a counselor for drug addicts in the Touch program. He also served as an elder and youth leader at the San Antonio Bible Center from 1971 to 1974.
In March of 1974 God led Lee to found the Faith Bible Church in San Antonio, where he continues to serve – in the same church for some 38 years! The current health of the church can be noted in the record of continuing to support some 48 missionaries with missions giving of $55,000 to $60,000 annually.
Lee has several other areas in which he has served – he has been a Bible conference speaker for over thirty years; he has had a daily radio broadcast for some years; in 1989 he added to his repertoire the presentation of Bible and gospel messages through the medium of chalk-talks, at camps, vacation Bible schools, Christian schools and in church services; he has authored and published a number of helpful booklets on Biblical topics. He is a much-sought-after speaker in Bible colleges, youth camps, Christian educator conventions, and churches besides his own church.
In November of 1979 Lee married his wife Irene Rodriguez; he isfather to five children, and gradfather to (currently) nine. Lee has known God's mercy in his health – he has recovered from two strokes, and twice gone into remission from a battle with lymphatic cancer.
Lee strongly believes that the King James Bible is the best English translation, that the clear gospel of the grace of God must be presented faithfully, and that the believer has two natures, and must discipline his life to be yielded to God.
DR. PHIL MYERS
Phil trusted Jesus Christ as his individual savior in the back seat of a brand new 1949 Chevy. His dad led him to Jesus. At the age of 10 he made a promise to God that he would follow Him for the rest of his life.

BOB BROOKES
Robert "Bob" Brookes accepted Christ at the young age of three when his mother explained John 3:16. "Even at that tender age I realized I was not as perfect as God and that I was a sinner. I put my faith and trust in Jesus Christ and have never doubted my salvation since that day."
Mr. Brookes is a graduate of Florida Bible College and attained a Master's degree in Counseling from Liberty University. He has served as Registrar and Professor at Florida Bible College, Tampa Bay Bible College and Colorado Bible College where he was also Dean.

Q: IIS6 and Windows Server 2003 unable to access ASP.Net site through external IP Address When I access the site from the server itself (via remote PC) or within the network using the name of the machine I can access the site just fine, but when I try to use the external IP of the server I get generic errors
If I specify the path completely (i.e. https :// server/MYApp/Default.aspx) I get:
"The resource cannot be found." in a standard ASP.Net error page style
If I specify just the virtual directory  (i.e. https :// x.x.x.x/MYApp/) I get:
"The system cannot find the file specified."
I'm pretty sure that it is able to connect to the ip address since it's downloading the security certificate ok and it's coming back with an actual error page.
I'm not exactly sure which details will be most useful but I would appreciate any help if anyone has encountered a similar error before.

A: It sounds to me like your site is not set to listen on the external ip of the server, go into the site bindings and add that in. By the sounds of it, your default site is listening on that ip so you may need to either add a host header with this, or remove the ip from the default site.

If you're experiencing a dental emergency, ring us immediately. Even if we're nearly closed for the day or are booked out, we will be sure to relieve your pain until you can be seen for a full procedure or referred to a specialist. Schedule your time today. Call us on (08) 9455 4565. We accept all major health funds and are preferred providers for HBF, HCF, Bupa, nib and CBHS.
At Dentist WA Canning Vale, we hope to help our patients experience first-rate care. Though we hope you don't have to deal with too many dental emergencies, it's important to know how to handle the situation properly. Here's what to consider should you or a family member experience one.
When you're experiencing a toothache from an abscess, it's important to not irritate the area with your fingers or a compress—instead, rinse your mouth with salty water. If pain is persistent and you're having trouble sleeping, you need to visit an emergency dentist as quickly as possible. Swelling or a prolonged fever are also signs that you should be seen by a dentist or medical professional.
When you lose a tooth suddenly from trauma or a sporting event, it may be able to be saved if you can get to our practice very quickly—typically within 30 minutes. Should the tooth be dirty, rinse it off immediately with milk or clean water. Store the tooth in a milk solution as you transport it to our practice. Though time is of the essence, a tooth can be replanted back into the socket.
Typically, a broken tooth with minimal discomfort requires a visit to the practice within a week. When pain is moderate, try an over the counter pain reliever to manage your pain. In severe cases where sensitivity is nearly unbearable, make an appointment with a Canning Vale emergency dentist as quickly as possible. In the meantime, placing a cold compress onto the face near the injured tooth may help swelling subside. If you're able to save your broken tooth, please do so and bring it in with you for evaluation.
Tough pieces of sweets, food or other objects can become wedged into the teeth and irritate the gum as well as cause bleeding. Attempt to gently remove the debris with floss.
Typically, an orthodontist is required to remedy a problem with braces or retainers, which may include broken brackets or retainers among other problems. If a wire is causing you irritation, use cotton or a soft gauze to place over the irritated wire. Schedule a visit with your practitioner as soon as possible.
Start by cleansing the area with a clean cloth and applying direct pressure to the wound. If the wound swells, use a cold compress. If the bleeding doesn't stop or bite seems severe, it's important to visit a hospital as soon as possible.

The power of visual communication has reached an all-time high with the rise of digital and social marketing – media that modern marketers use to promote their content and brands. As a result, photography is becoming more crucial to the promotion of a product or service than ever before.Digital Advertising Beat TV Ads..
1. Gets attention. With the sheer volume of information being shared online – 1.5 billion units of content – marketers need to do everything they can to grab the attention of their target audience. Visual elements increase people's willingness to read content by a staggering 80%.
2. Speeds processing. The human brain can only process a limited amount of information at a given time. Data that can be processed much faster, such as a compelling photograph, will always take precedence.
3. Improves nonverbal communication. With 93% of all human communication being non-verbal, combining visual elements with well-written text is an excellent way for marketers to capture the imagination of their target audience.
4. Adds viral options. Visual content can go viral if an audience likes it well enough to share it with their online communities and social networks. This helps to build brand credibility, corporate integrity, and customer loyalty.
5. Improves understanding. Photographically strong brands are dynamic, emotional, and timeless. Adding photographs that explain a brand's message helps the target audience better understand and appreciate the message.
6. Influences emotion. In spite of efforts to make purchases based on rational analysis, consumers often let emotion influence their buying decisions. The use of captivating photographs drives emotional responses about a brand.
7. Solicits action. We are in a new era of marketing in which a brand is defined by those who experience it. Forty percent of online users will provide more favorable responses to visual content than to plain text and text-based content.
8. Increases engagement. Photographs are easier to consume than text. Facebook campaigns generate 65% more engagement and tweets average 35% more retweets when including a photograph than those without.
9. Creates a favorable perception. Humans are conditioned to make snap judgments, sometimes on a subconscious level. A professional appearance, including a well-taken photograph displaying a product or service in context, builds trust.
10. Drives sales. There is a direct link between utilising high-quality images in marketing and the growth of sales. Photographs help consumers visualize themselves using a product or service and allows them to imagine it improving their life in some way.
As a passionate, lifelong photographer, I can attest to the power of photography and the value that it brings to the communication of ideas. Modern marketers should make use of this visually stimulating content as a way to reach their target audience.
