Online strategy, advice and ideas?
At Perplex we are constantly researching how users handle (mobile) websites, apps, online campaigns and social networks. As a result-driven agency we want you to connect with your target audience.
We can give you strategic advice, offer support as a marketer for the smart implementation of digital media and online marketing, and from now on will always think along with you.
It is very tempting to get started as quickly as possible with ideas and attractive designs. But how do you know if your target audience is interested in this? That is why we involve your actual audience(s) as soon as possible. We want to know who they are and wat they need. Which media and devices they use. How they use them. Which other services and businesses they encounter online. What does the customer journey look like (customer journey)? And where are the opportunities?
Depending on what data you already have available, we conduct additional research in a pragmatic manner. If we mainly want to gain insights, interviews and focus groups are very suitable. If we want to know what the target audience is looking for online or how they deal with certain websites, we use eye tracking research.
Understanding the customer journey and the actual online behaviour of your target audience are crucial. The availability of so many online stimuli and so many digital channels that only relevance and creativity will make a difference..
Using Google Analytics, for example, behaviour on your website (s) is probably being measured already even now. This data is interpreted by our internet marketers and use to acquire insights.
Besides Google Analytics, there are many more tools and resources providing information about search behaviour, motivations of the target group or site usage. Consider for example CRM-data, click tracking, keyword analysis or conversation analysis on social media.
All websites, apps and online campaigns you are using achieve the most impact if they are integrated seamlessly. Based on the acquired insights and your goals we develop an effective strategy. We will not write big reports but use the internet marketing framework we refined. You will have a clear overview of opportunities, goals and the digital media and internet tools you can use, visualized on A3-size with the customer journey as a starting point..
Once it is clear what resources and tools need to be developed, we prepare a plan to implement them in stages. How can we get where you need to be as soon as is feasible? Together we determine priorities and the sequence of activities and deliverables. The roadmap is a well thought-out visual planning that provides an overview of the step-by-step route to profit at a single glance.
Ideas sometimes come at the most unexpected moments. But you can give chance a helping hand. Our office is set up in such a way that there is in any case a lot of room and opportunity to boost its emergence. Apart from this we are also active in trade associations and visit many conferences, inspiration sessions and workshops in Europe, Asia and the United States. Everything to keep looking for techniques, methods, tools and ideas to make your website or online campaign even more successful.
A good way for people to get to know each other and put their money where their mouth is... We like to lock ourselves in our office with you for an hour, to redecorate the newly painted walls with thick layers of post-its. But be warned: our enthusiasm is contagious.

Q: issue with AlAsset library I'm facing an issue with the ALAsset library: I have an UIView with 100 image views. When the view is loading, i'm calling a function for generating the images from the file name.
This is my class:
@interface myClass
{
    NSString *fileName;
    int pathId;
}

viewDidLoad
-(void)viewDidLoad
{
    NSMutableArray *imageCollectionArray = [self createImage:arrayOfmyClassObject];

     //Here I'm binding the 100 images in UIView using the images in imageCollectionArray
}

This is my method in which I found the issue:
- (NSMutableArray *)createImage:(NSMutableArray *)imageFileNamesArray
{
    imageArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
    for (int imageNameKey = 0; imageNameKey<100; imageNameKey++)
    {
         myClass *obj= [imageFileNamesArray objectAtIndex:imageNameKey];
        if(obj.pathId == 0)
        {

            //Here adding the bundle image into the imageArray
                [imageArray addObject:[UIImage imageWithContentsOfFile:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:obj.fileName ofType:@"png" inDirectory:@"Images"]]];
        }
        else
        {
                typedef void (^ALAssetsLibraryAssetForURLResultBlock)(ALAsset *asset); typedef void (^ALAssetsLibraryAccessFailureBlock)(NSError *error);
             ALAssetsLibraryAssetForURLResultBlock resultblock = ^(ALAsset *myasset) {
             };
             ALAssetRepresentation *rep = [myasset defaultRepresentation];
            CGImageRef iref = [rep fullResolutionImage];
            UIImage *images;
            if (iref)
                {

            //Here adding the photo library image into the imageArray
             images = [UIImage imageWithCGImage:iref];
            [imageArray addObject:images];

            }
            else
            {
            //Here adding the Nofile.png image into the imageArray if didn't find a photo library image
              images = [UIImage imageNamed:@"Nofile.png"];
             [imageArray addObject:images];
            }

             ALAssetsLibraryAccessFailureBlock failureblock = ^(NSError *myerror) {

                        //Here adding the Nofile.png image into the imageArray if any failure occurs
                 [imageArray addObject:[UIImage imageNamed:@"Nofile.png"]];

            NSLog(@"booya, cant get image - %@",[myerror localizedDescription]);
             };
             NSURL *asseturl = [NSURL URLWithString:obj.fileName];
             ALAssetsLibrary* assetslibrary = [[[ALAssetsLibrary alloc] init] autorelease];
            [assetslibrary assetForURL:asseturl
             resultBlock:resultblock failureBlock:failureblock];
        }
    }
    return imageArray;
}

The problem was when I loads the view at first time the asset library images are not generating, only bundle images were displayed, if i go to any of the another view and return back to 100 image view then the asset images are generated.And works fine. The problem is the same function is not generating asset images at the first load. How can i fix this? Thanks in advance.

A: All methods related to ALAssetLibrary are asynchronous, so your view may complete its loading life cycle before the desired data is returned. You have to take this into account and redraw your view (or a portion of it) as needed.

Rav Giddel (or Gidal  or Giddul; Hebrew: רב גידל) was a second generation Amora sage of Babylon and the Land of Israel.

Biography
Rav was his principle teacher. Dozens of times he delivers Rav's teachings in the Talmud - many of which he heard indirectly from his teacher Hiyya bar Joseph, and in rare occasions he also delivers the work of R. Ze'iri.

After the death of Rav, Rav Giddel went to study under Rav Huna. It is told that Rav Huna gave lengthy lectures, and many of his students, among them Rav Giddel, restrained themselves from relieving themselves during the lessons, and became infertile as a result.

Later on he moved to live in the Land of Israel, in the beit midrash of Yochanan bar Nafcha in Tiberias.

Once, when Rav Giddel was in the process of buying a field, R. Abba came and purchased it first. The case came to the attention of R. Isaac Nappaha, who asked R. Abba: "If a poor man is examining a cake and another comes and takes it away from him, what then?", and R. Abba replied: "He is called a wicked man". R. Abba explained to R. Isaac Nappaha that he did not know that Rav Giddel was already eying the field, and now knowing this, he was ready to gift the field to Rav Giddel but not to sell it to him, since selling one's first field is a bad omen. Rav Giddel refused to accept it as a gift, in accordance with the verse: "he that hates gifts shall live", and R. Abba likewise refused to use the field. The field, abandoned by both parties, became known as "The Rabbis' field"

Rav Giddel was accustomed to go and sit at the gates of the bathing-place (were women would immerse), in order to teach the laws of tevilah. When was asked by the Rabbis: "Is not the Master afraid lest his passion get the better of him?", he replied that he was not afraid since his passion does not control him.

Is Bollywood Trying To Give A New Spin To Extramarital Affairs On Screen?
With the big success of Rustom, Bollywood is once more talking about extra marital affairs and whether it is a question on our strong rooted marriage system. When on one side, the characters are shown to move out of their marriages, the other side shows something deeper... loneliness.
Are the movies hinting us about a society where more and more couples are entering into a loveless relationship. There is money, comfort and even a nice guy or woman, but there is a piece that is missing. Do today's couples need more than just stability and warmth to live the happily ever after?
We need to think about it and perhaps look at the these movies once more.
The movie depicted the estranged relationships in the metros where people are so full of their own dreams and selfish motives that they often forget about their personal lives. The glittery world is not as glittery as it seems! Shilpa Shetty, a damsel in distress, is often neglected by her husband and is seen comforted by Shiney Ahuja. However, guilt-stricken in the end, she returns to her loveless marital life trying to beg for pardon from her adulterous husband who is relentless to forgive her!
It is one of the few films that have completely explored the concept of love outside the marriage in a more mature way. However, the movie has still been tagged as "unviable" for the Indian audience since again, it puts the concept of marriage into question!
Directed by Karan Johar, the movie depicted the loveless marital lives of two couples, Rhea & Dev and Rishi and Maya. However, as the movie progresses, Dev and Maya meet each other by chance and are drawn towards each other. They move out of their marriage and at last muster the courage to quit their marriages and live together happily!
This film, not only dealt with bold and sensitive subject of an extra-marital affair, it also depicted different layers of human nature, including jealousy, greed and pride and that too really brilliantly. This is why Guide is considered to be one of the masterpieces of Bollywood.
Starring Sanjeev Kumar, Vidya Sinha and Ranjeeta, this 1978 film was way ahead of its time while presenting an adulterous relationship on the screen. However, the movie was a comical and satirical take on the estranged relationship of marital couples.

Q: Cannot insert the value NULL into column Hy,
I have created the following 3 tables for a database:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Buyer] (
[Buyer_Id]   INT           IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL,
[Last_Name]  NVARCHAR (50) NOT NULL,
[First_Name] NVARCHAR (50) NOT NULL,
[Social_No]  NVARCHAR (50) NOT NULL,
[Phone]      NVARCHAR (50) NOT NULL,
[User_Id]    INT           NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ([Buyer_Id] ASC),
CONSTRAINT [FK_User_Id] FOREIGN KEY ([User_Id]) REFERENCES [dbo].[User] ([User_Id])

);
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Type] (
    [Type_Id]   INT        IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL,
    [Type_Name] NCHAR (10) NULL,
    PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ([Type_Id] ASC)
);

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[User] (
    [User_Id] INT           IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL,
    [User_Name]    NCHAR (10)    NOT NULL,
    [Pass]    NVARCHAR (50) NOT NULL,
    [Type_Id] INT           NOT NULL,
    PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ([User_Id] ASC),
    CONSTRAINT [FK__Type_Id] FOREIGN KEY ([Type_Id]) REFERENCES [dbo].[Type] ([Type_Id])
);

and I have the following stored procedure
    CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[InsertCustomer]
    @Buyer_Id int output,
    @Last_Name varchar(50),
    @First_Name varchar(50),
    @Social_No varchar(50),
    @Phone varchar(50),
    @User_Id int output,
    @User_Name nchar(10),
    @Pass varchar(50),
    @Type_id int output,
    @Type_Name nchar(10)

    AS
     BEGIN

    SET NOCOUNT ON;

    insert into Buyer(Last_Name,First_Name,Social_No,Phone)
    values (@Last_Name,@First_Name,@Social_No,@Phone)
    set @Buyer_Id = SCOPE_IDENTITY();

    insert into [User](User_Name,Pass)
    values(@User_Name,@Pass)
    set @User_Id = SCOPE_IDENTITY();

    insert into [Type](Type_Name)
    values (@Type_Name)
    set @Type_id = SCOPE_IDENTITY();

    RETURN 0

 END

and the C# code:
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("InsertCustomer", conn);
            cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
            SqlParameter paramLastName = new SqlParameter("@Last_Name", customer.Last_Name);
            SqlParameter paramFirstName = new SqlParameter("@First_Name", customer.First_Name);
            SqlParameter paramSocialNo = new SqlParameter("@Social_No", customer.Social_No);
            SqlParameter paramPhone = new SqlParameter("@Phone", customer.Phone_No);
            SqlParameter paramUserName = new SqlParameter("User_name", user.User_Name);

            paramBuyerId.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
            SqlParameter paramUserId = new SqlParameter("@User_Id", SqlDbType.Int);
            paramUserId.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;

            cmd.Parameters.Add(paramPass);
            cmd.Parameters.Add(paramTypeName);
            cmd.Parameters.Add(paramBuyerId);
            cmd.Parameters.Add(paramUserId);
            cmd.Parameters.Add(paramTypeId);

            conn.Open();
            cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
            customer.Buyer_Id = (int)paramBuyerId.Value;
            type.Type_Id = (int)paramTypeId.Value;
            user.User_Id = (int)paramUserId.Value;

But after I insert data into the form that uses the above code I am getting the following error:

Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'User_Id' ....
  PLATFORM.MDF.dbo.Buyer'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'Type_Id', table ...
  PLATFORM.MDF.dbo.User'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.

Please help me,
Sincerely,

A: You have errors in your stored procedure, since you are not specifying values for the User_Id or Type_Id columns but those columns don't allow null values.
You should reverse the order of the inserts and use the generated identity values in the following ones, like so:
insert into [Type](Type_Name)
values (@Type_Name)
set @Type_id = SCOPE_IDENTITY();

insert into [User](User_Name,Pass,TypeId)
values(@User_Name,@Pass,@Type_id)
set @User_Id = SCOPE_IDENTITY();

insert into Buyer(Last_Name,First_Name,Social_No,Phone,User_Id)
values (@Last_Name,@First_Name,@Social_No,@Phone,@User_Id)
set @Buyer_Id = SCOPE_IDENTITY();

A: You should change insert order. First of all you should insert new type
insert into [Type](Type_Name)
values (@Type_Name)
set @Type_id = SCOPE_IDENTITY();

After that you should insert new user (use @type_id for that)
insert into [User](User_Name,Pass,Type_id)
values(@User_Name,@Pass,@Type_id)
set @User_Id = SCOPE_IDENTITY();

Filnaly, use @User_Id to insert Buyer. In turn use @User_Id
insert into Buyer(Last_Name,First_Name,Social_No,Phone,User_id)
values (@Last_Name,@First_Name,@Social_No,@Phone,@User_Id)
set @Buyer_Id = SCOPE_IDENTITY();


Yes, what I want is breezy, simple-to-put on fashion that has an edge of the trend, but will carry me through the summer season. I want some panache in my wardrobe. There are plenty of girls like me we've place on some pounds, they have realigned our physique in ways that imply the old designs of the past need to be abandoned, but we still want to appear fashionable.
Hi Bee, your employer would gather you from the airport so do not be concerned about that. You should be housed on a compound if you apply for a job with a respected college/organization so you will be totally free to do as you want there. Nevertheless I would recommend that you do not go out alone anyplace, usually go with a pal or two so that you have business.
Until trans folks have much more narrative representation, till ladies have far more representation, until men and women of color have more representation, we completely have to be asking people of privilege—especially white cis men — to curtail their wish to project their notions of Otherness onto the characters they develop and, as an alternative, give possibilities to trans, queer, female, Black artists and just step away from the steering wheel.
Also, my husband explained to me the idea behind the complete abaya and hijab factor. Luckily final night before I left for the airport this morning he showed me how to put on the scarf, and so on. He told me I'd be in a position to take it off when I'm at my brother-in-law's property because he is associated to me but I want to wait for when he invites to eliminate it, and after that I no longer need to have to wear it around them.
Another aspect of discrimination against girls in the workplace issues how they are treated. Are they getting treated professionally and fairly? According to the Bureau of Labor statistics, incidents of sexual harassment lawsuits in corporate America have remained higher, with organizations paying out over $700 million in damages in the past ten years. Girls nonetheless report becoming spoken to or touched in a non-expert manner. The long fight for equality is far from over.

Cowboy Mardi Gras
Hill Country town puts a Texas twist on Carnival season for 18th-annual Cowboy Mardi Gras
Photo by Tessa Kolodny
The three-day celebration brings over 15,000 people from all over the world to Bandera.
New Orleans may be top of mind for Mardi Gras, but Texas has its fair share of Fat Tuesday festivities. While Galveston's may be the state's oldest celebration and San Antonio wins points for actual floats (courtesy of the River Walk), one little Hill Country town has put its own spin on the annual event for almost twenty years.
Known as the "Cowboy Capital of the World," Bandera hosts a three-day Cowboy Mardi Gras that attracts over 15 thousand people from all over the world to the town of 839 residents. Featuring traditional cajun bands, country music, a Cowboy Mardi Gras parade, costume contests, gumbo cook-off, and more, the 2023 iteration takes place from February 9 to 11.
Bandera is located a little over two hours from Austin, a pleasant trek for those looking for a colorful start to Carnival season. This year's event honors James and Stella McGroarty, former owners of Bandera's 11th Cowboy Bar, who will act as the 2023 Cowboy Mardi Gras Parade Grand Marshals.
With a 20,000 square foot bar and 70-foot stage, the bar is one of the largest music venues in the Texas Hill Country, housed in a historic wood-framed building with a porch out front and expansive outdoor venue area out back. James McGroarty acquired the bar in 2006, transforming it into the destination it is today and elevating the town's annual Cowboy Mardi Gras Parade to the party it is today.
In July 2022, D. Foster, Melinie Ivey, and Richard and Sasha Sutton purchased the bar from McGroarty, planning to carry on McGroarty's legacy.
"We are so honored to take on the tradition of the 18th Annual Cowboy Mardi Gras Parade," says Richard Sutton in a release. "Bandera is a remarkable town that knows how to throw one hell of a party and we're looking to carry on that tradition."
"James McGroarty has said that 11th Street Cowboy Bar is all about providing the best Country Western music experience in Texas and sharing drinks with good friends," adds D. Foster. "He wanted to make all things in Bandera bigger than life. This is why we bought the bar and we want to carry on James McGroarty's legacy."
This year's lineup of live music will feature a variety of artists including Deanna Carter, Gary P. Nunn, Dale Watson, Jake Worthington, and many more. Find a full lineup of music and daily activities at cowboymardigrasbandera.com, as well as ticketing information. Tickets for the festivities start at $75 in advance or $85 at the door.

Changes to trailer licensing announced after previous delay
| Updated: 20:41, 17 December 2021
The UK Government has confirmed that as of yesterday, December 16 the regulations surrounding trailer tests and licensing have changed.
Changes had previously been expected to be confirmed in November after the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) confirmed in September its intention to change the law in an effort to free up testing capacity to tackle the shortage of qualified lorry drivers.
Under the new regulations, drivers that passed their car driving test from January 1 1997 are now allowed to tow trailers up to 3500kg MAM.
The DVLA will update driving licence records for all those the change applies to - category BE will also be added to photocard driving licenses when renewed to show that you are allowed to tow trailers.
Read more about driving license categories at https://www.gov.uk/driving-licence-categories.
Members do not need to contact DVLA for this to happen. It will be done automatically.
If you passed your car driving test before 1 January 1997, you are not affected by the change.
The news was welcomed by farming union NFU Scotland who are still recommending that members seek to take part in training before towing for health and safety reasons.
Commenting on the announcement NFU Scotland's Transport Advisor Jamie Smart said: "NFU Scotland are pleased that the uncertainty over trailer licensing has been resolved and as of the 16 of December 2021 anyone who holds a category B (car license) will also be entitled to tow a trailer up to 3500 kg subject to the towing vehicles towing capacity.
"This entitlement will be added automatically when a license is renewed but a driver does not need to wait until this happens for the entitlement to take effect.
"NFU Scotland strongly advise that anyone who intends to tow a trailer behind their car or pickup undertakes appropriate training as this will improve road safety as well as ensuring compliance with health and safety legislation.
"Full guidance on the regulation change is available on the government website."
The full details of changes can be found at https://www.gov.uk/guidance/new-rules-for-towing-a-trailer-or-caravan-with-a-car-from-autumn-2021#what-changed-on-16-december-2021

But Jesus hasn't actually started preaching yet. He's only read them the scripture passage he will use as his text. Today, we get to hear the actual sermon. Get ready. Jesus is about to flip the town of Nazareth on its ear.
If the people of Nazareth were expecting a sermon about Jubilee, they were probably shocked by what came out of Jesus' mouth instead. "Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing," Jesus told them.
Luke doesn't convey a particular tone of voice when he quotes the folks from Nazareth. "Isn't this Joseph's son?" could mean a number of things. Perhaps they were proud of the hometown hero from an "I remember him when he was just a boy – didn't he turn out well?" perspective.
Or maybe they were amazed to realize that what they had longed for all their lives, the Messiah, had been growing up right under their noses for the past thirty years. "Huh! How about that!" they might have murmured to one another.
And perhaps a few of the more perceptive listeners might have noticed a particular nuance to Jesus' reading from Isaiah. They might have caught the uncomfortable idea that Isaiah's words had not been fulfilled until now because Israel hadn't been ready to accept them.
Jesus astonished them with his explanation. They knew immediately that he meant it as an indictment. Jesus used that same word, 'acceptable," they had just hear in the prophecy, to describe how a prophet was NOT treated in his hometown.
Not only was Jesus reminding his listeners of all the times in Israel's past when the Lord's prophets had met with opposition and abuse – usually when delivering bad news – Jesus was also affirming his own prophetic identity.
This did not sit well with the hometown crowd. After all, they'd watched him grow up. Didn't he think they would have recognized him as a prophet, if that had been the case? Smiles were turning into frowns. Murmurs of approval were turning into grumbling.
But what Jesus said next made them downright mad. He pointed out that it wasn't always the Israelites who had received God's blessing. He reminds them of the widow of Zaraphath and Naaman – a woman and a man who could best be described as enemies of Israel, but who received mercy and blessing because of their faith.
Luke will repeat this pairing of male and female interactions with Christ throughout his gospel. Just a few verses beyond where today's reading ends, Luke will link the healing of Peter's mother-in-law with the healing of a man possessed by demons (4:31-39), and in a few chapters, Jesus will encounter the centurion of Capernaum and the widow of Nain (7:1-17). Luke is pointing us to the big idea of Jesus' sermon to his friends in Nazareth. God's grace and mercy belong to everyone – male or female, Jew or Gentile – and not just any Gentiles, but the ones you think of as your enemies.
Those disgusting Gentiles, those heathens, those unclean people who Jews were very proud NOT to be – they had shown greater faith than the Jews had shown, and "those people" had received God's grace. God had worked wonders for those the Jews found to be "unacceptable." and God had done this because of their faith.
This was hard stuff for the people of Nazareth to hear, especially coming from one of their own kids. "Mob mentality" took over as they rose in anger, unwilling to accept what they had heard. Luke writes, "They got up, drove him out of the town, and led him to the brow of the hill on which their town was built so that they might hurl him off the cliff.
It's also interesting to note that the beginning of this fourth chapter of Luke told the story of Satan tempting Jesus to throw – or hurl – himself down from the pinnacle of the temple to prove that he is the Son of God. Now the people of Nazareth have heard from Jesus' own lips that he is the fulfillment of the Scriptures, the very Son of God, and their response is a desire to hurl him off the cliff.
Three years later, a different hill would tell a different story. While Jesus was ready to proclaim that Isaiah's prophecy had been fulfilled, and "now was the time of God's favor, the acceptable day of the Lord," he also knew that his own hour had not yet come. This was not the hill Jesus would die on.
A few years ago, Bruce and I stood at the top of that cliff. They call it Mount Precipice. This hill outside Nazareth is nothing like the white cliffs of Dover. It doesn't have a sharp drop off, as you might expect.
Our guide explained to us that when the people of Nazareth wanted to throw Jesus off the cliff, their intent was to watch him tumble down the rocky hillside, then follow him down and stone him to death.
On the day we visited this hill outside Nazareth, it was raining, and the clouds seemed to settle over the cliff, blocking our view of the countryside around us. We should have been able to see Mount Tabor off to the southeast, but clouds and fog obscured the view. We could barely see parts of modern day Nazareth to the northwest of us.
Yet, on this first day of our pilgrimage, everyone on the bus felt compelled to take pictures of what we couldn't really see. Pictures like this.
Not a single one of us got the irony of what we were doing. We were busy taking pictures of what we could not see. Think about that. Look at all these tourists at the top of Mt. Precipice, pointing their cameras and smart phones in every direction, and not one of us could actually see the bottom of the cliff, or Mount Tabor, off to our left.
I have 28 photos saved from that spot. This is the best one I could find of Mount Tabor.
Luke writes, "But he passed through the midst of them and went on his way." I have to wonder, as we were busy taking pictures of things we couldn't clearly see, if any of us noticed Jesus passing through our midst, going on his way.
This is the season of Epiphany, when Christ is revealed as God among us. Christ passes through our midst just as surely as he did that day in Nazareth. And yet, we often miss him as easily as the Nazareth neighbors did.
How do we let Jesus pass through our midst, unrecognized? How often does the One who died to save us come near us, brushing our shoulder, present with us – and we ignore Him completely? In what ways do we reject the Savior's love, because we have grown complacent to the familiar news of God's grace?
How are we, like those folks from Nazareth, unwilling to let our comfortable existence be shaken by the life-changing power of the Holy Spirit? How often do we get angry when our notions about 'living a Christian life' are challenged by the reality of serving Christ by serving those we like least?
You and I are not so different from those folks in Nazareth, are we? Hearing the truth about ourselves makes us uncomfortable at best. Just think about the last family reunion you attended where a sibling or a cousin told a story about something you did in your youth that causes you embarrassment now. We don't like it when someone else reminds us of our failures and shortcomings. We don't like it when someone reminds us of our sin.
David Lose asks, "So what are we to do? Now that Jesus' words have revealed the truth that we've got just as much fear and shame and prejudice as did the folks in Nazareth, what are we to do?
"There's only one thing I can think of. And that's to keep our eyes fastened on the one who told the truth in the first place, the one we nailed to a cross because of it. Because of all the prophets, you see, of all the folks who came and told the truth only to be rejected, or beaten, or killed, this is the only one God raised from the dead.
"And in Christ's cross and resurrection we discover that Jesus' word – really, Jesus the Word – not only reveals the truth about us, but also reveals the truth about God, about a God so passionate for God's people that God takes on our lot and our life, becomes one of us, even to the point of dying for us, only to come back bringing again a word of forgiveness and grace. For this God loves all God's children – desperately, passionately, relentlessly – and that includes you and me.
" … When Jesus tells us the truth about ourselves – simply because it is the truth! – we have to give up the pretense, surrender every claim to having it all together, to being perfect, to making it on our own. In a word, when Jesus tells us the truth about ourselves, we die. But when Jesus goes on to tell us – really, to show us – the truth about God, then we come alive again. We come alive in the spirit of a God who not only knows everything about us, but loves us anyway, a God who loves us so much that God will go to any length to redeem us from all the pettiness, shame, and fear that seem so often to overrun even the most successful of lives.
Friends, believe the good news that might feel like bad news at first, but is ultimately good news, the best news possible. When we are baptized into Christ Jesus, it demonstrates that we have died with him, and have been raised with him. We have been raised to new life, to proclaim good news to the poor, release to the captive, and freedom to the oppressed. The time of God's favor is still being fulfilled in our hearing, right here and now.

The UK parent blogging scene is dominated by women. In a recent Tots100 parent blogger study an overwhelming 97% of respondents were female.
However, dads are getting in on the act too; with the number of stay at home fathers reaching record levels last year, the rise in male parenting blogging is steadily rising. From SHADs looking for a creative outlet to men sharing their parenting frustrations and successes on forums like Mumsnet and Dadz Club, fathers are striking their social media drums more than ever before.
To celebrate Father's Day on June 16th – yep, THIS Sunday – and as a homage to our own beloved dads, here are some of our favourite parenting blogs run by men. If you're favourite dad blog isn't on this listen then don't forget to share it in the comments!
Stay at home dad Tim Atkinson has become something of a parent blogging celebrity, having appeared on ITV's This Morning, contributing regularly to BBC Radio and winning several blogging awards. Bringing up Charlie blog charts the progress of Tim and his children, as his wife returns to work and leaves him to change the diapers. Expect tongue in cheek humour, advice and competitions.
This blog is a grumpy look at the day to day trials of dads everywhere. Chronicling the lives of a father of three, expect every topic from car journeys and sleepovers to the etiquette of dealing with temper tantrums. Although it's not jam-packed with indispensable advice for parents, Shouty Dad is an entertaining look at the humour to be found in everyday family life.
Ian Newbold suddenly became a single parent when his wife Samantha died in 2005. His blog, Single Parent Dad, is a touching look at coping with bereavement, and life as a single parent to his son Max. Newbold describes himself as 'forever grateful' for the suggestion that he started blogging. The blog gave him an out let for his thoughts, and a community he could discuss them with. SPD is a great example of how blogging brings people together, and has become a lifeline for its readers.
British expatriate Matt Ross claims to have two children; a son and his blog. Now that's blogging dedication. A stay at home dad based in Melbourne, Australia, Matt likes to indulge his 'missing life as a 'modern man' syndrome' by writing about food, fitness, fashion and travel. Albeit with little people in tow. In his own words he is a dad 'who insists on having his cake and eating it'.
An accountant by day, daddy blogger by night, Alex highlights issues that many weary working parents with young children face. Daddacool covers numerous topics, including useful product reviews, dealing with sexism towards fathers and the occasional vlog post too. Not to be left out, his wife Claire also runs her own parenting blog, Being a Mummy.

Q: How to replace CSS style using PHP? Short question : I've a $css variable containing CSS, I would like to find a given style (in my case the "body" one) in that variable and replace it with custom style.
Basic input output :
/* blablabla */
body {
    background-color:#d0e4fe;
    font-family: 'Afamily', sanas-serif;
}
span {
    padding: 5px
}
h1 {
    color:orange;
    text-align:center;
}
body {
    margin: 10px;
    padding: 5px;
}
p {
    font-family:"Times New Roman";
    font-size:20px;
}

We call magicFunction():
echo magicFunction($css, 'font-color: pink; font-weight: bold;');

And we get :
/* blablabla */
body {
    font-color: pink; font-weight: bold;
}
span {
    padding: 5px
}
h1 {
    color:orange;
    text-align:center;
}
p {
    font-family:"Times New Roman";
    font-size:20px;
}

What's wrong ? Basically I'm stucked here
$bodyPattern = '/body\s\{[.|\s]*/m';
$found = preg_match_all($bodyPattern, $css, $matches);

It found only output stuff like :
"body {
   '"

After the line return ... nothing.
Of course once I'll have the right regexp pattern I'll use preg_replace.
Why I want to do that : I want to apply CssToInlineStyle using my website CSS to build a newsletter, I'd like to change only the body style to avoid some style to be applied (like a background color). EDIT : This point is mentioned to let you know the "why", feel free to comment and give your view point on that, but please consider only the above question as what you're supposed to answer.

A: I believe the regex your after is this:
body {(([a-zA-Z0-9:;#%\(\)\'\-])*\s*)*} - you'll need to format it properly for multiline in php.
You need to match every character except { and } to ensure you only capture the body style and not all styles.
I also reccomend using this site to test regex before trying to use it. I do agree with the other comments, I think what your doing is a little mad.. but in the words of Norman Bates 'We all go a little mad sometimes', I know I have. Hope this helps.
EDIT:
<?php
    $css = "body { \n
        color:#899890;\n
        }";
    $pattern = '/body(\s){0,1}{(([a-zA-Z0-9:;#%\(\)\'\-])*\s*)*}/m';
    $found = preg_match_all($pattern, $css, $matches);

    print_r($matches);
?>

produces:
Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [0] => body {

        color:#899890;

        }
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [0] =>
        )

    [2] => Array
        (
            [0] =>
        )

    [3] => Array
        (
            [0] => ;
        )

)

It seems to work for me.

A: Either you serve your CSS-file with PHP. Or you use something like SASS for using variables in your CSS.
Parsing the CSS with PHP and replace variables using regex will result in very bad performance and put a big load on your server.

A: I would use css like this.
<style>
<? include style.php;?>
</style>

Now on style.php
body { <? magicFunction('font-color: pink; font-weight: bold;');
?>
}

h1 {
    color:orange;
    text-align:center;
}
p {
    font-family:"Times New Roman";
    font-size:20px;
}

And magicFunction would be like this
function magicFunction($style) {
    echo $style;
}

A: one way to avoid needing to do this is by exploiting the cascading feature of CSS:
body {
    background-color:#d0e4fe;
    font-family: 'Afamily', sanas-serif;
}

<? if (...): ?>
    body {
        // overrides the definitions applied above
        background-color: inherit;
        font-family: inherit;

        // and define your own rules
        font-color: pink;
        font-weight: bold;
    }
<? endif; ?>


Central Government has always been resistive about promoting hybridization for motorized vehicles in India and instead wanted the auto industry to completely transform into all-electric means by the end of next decade. While several manufacturers were appreciative of the vision, they casted doubt on the lack of realistic plans to get there.
It appears that the tables have turned around as the heavy industries department had proposed Rs. 13 crore subsidy from EFC (Expenditure Finance Committee), as part of promoting hybrid cars. The potential customers of 10,000 hybrids fitted with Li-ion battery ranging between 0.5 and 2 kWh capacity are sought incentives for.
Mainstream brands like Maruti Suzuki, Honda and Toyota have long been advocates of bringing in a beneficial hybrid policy while Tata and Mahindra wanted to take the next big leap as they are already working on a series of zero-emission vehicles with huge investment. The latter already has e-Verito and e2o while Tata supplied state-run EESL organisation with electrified versions of Tigor recently.
Under the GST rules, government pushed 15 percent cess onto the hybrid vehicles along with moving it up the ladder to 28 percent tax slab. It meant that the existed hybrid cars had to be withdrawn from the lineup, as they no longer had exemption. While it was said that the move was to promote EVs, the lack of infrastructure and the apparent slow process in the transition had led to car brands switching attention elsewhere.
The highly anticipated second phase of FAME (Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Electric and Hybrid vehicles) scheme went up in flames, as the main authorities back in September 2018 rejected the draft that saw Rs, 5,500 crore was sanctioned by EFC in a push to allow incentives for producing Lithium-ion batteries locally.
Maruti Suzuki's Chairman R.C. Bhargava predicts that only 10 to 15 percent of total vehicles sold will be electric between now and 2030, and thus concentrating on hybrid vehicles before a gradual switch to EVs is necessary. The largest automaker in the country will be introducing its first full-fledged EV in 2020 and it will expand its SHVS mild-hybrid technology across the range as well.
With the new approach, they are more likely to get a large chunk of incentives back again for the likes of Ertiga, Ciaz and S-Cross.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Alabama coach Nick Saban said junior wide receiver Jaylen Waddle is out for the rest of the season after hurting his right ankle on the opening kickoff Saturday against Tennessee.
"It's a shame because the guy's a great player," Saban told CBS at halftime. "It's exciting for college football to see a guy playing like that. I hate it that he gets hurt on a play like that. You're not supposed to bring the ball out when you're that deep in the end zone, but he's a great player, so you've got to let him use his judgment."
Waddle took the opening kickoff and got out to the Alabama 15 when tackled by Kenneth George Jr. Waddle's right foot got caught between the grass and George's body and turned. Waddle was helped off the field putting no weight on his right foot before being carted to the locker room.
Waddle has been one of the nation's top punt returners the past two years and has seldom had the ball kicked his way this year.
He had 733 yards on punt returns in his career, ranking sixth in Alabama history. Waddle currently leads all Crimson Tide returners averaging 19.3 yards per punt return in his career, nearly six years better than second place.
Waddle opened this season with at least 120 yards receiving in each of the first four games and led Alabama with 557 yards on just 25 catches. Waddle was averaging 22.3 yards per catch and had four touchdowns.

America's leading golfers were largely invisible as Europe's finest dominated the Florida swing on the PGA Tour last month. Now we know why. They were keeping their powder dry for the start of the majors season and a compelling first round at the 83rd Masters on Thursday.
Ian Poulter did his valiant best to swim against the tide with an encouraging 68, while Jon Rahm shot 69 and Frankie Molinari chipped in with a 70. But this was a day when Tiger Woods (70) showed that he has plenty left and evergreen Phil Mickelson shot 67 for his lowest opening round in nine years. World number two Dustin Johnson got his campaign up and running with a 68.
Best of all was the simply stellar play of Brooks Koepka and Bryson DeChambeau, who have set a forbidding pace with wonderful rounds of 66.
That's all from today, folks!
Hope you enjoyed the opening round. Make sure to join us all again tomorrow for what is set to be another fascinating day of action.
And that's Thursday's play at the Masters finished!
What a contrast for this group. Koepka finishes on -6 and shares the lead with DeChambeau heading into Friday.
Meanwhile, Spieth posts +3. But it's Casey who will head off the course with his head in his hands. The Englishman posted a horror +9 after a double bogey on the last!
It has been a very mixed day at the office for this group. Mickelson finishes off with a birdie to move to -5, while Rose posts a par for a +3 finish. Meanwhile, Thomas finds the middle ground with a +1 after a bogey at the last.
It has been a tough afternoon for Jason Day due to his back injuries but he stayed strong to post a round of 70 (-2). He showed be very happy with his display! Four back from the leaders.
Johnson manages a par on the last hole to record a score of -4 for the day - two shots off the lead.
That would have been something else!
DeChambeau nearly steals the show on the 18th. The American hits his approach shot to the final hole, hoping to put himself within birdie contention.
But his approach in fact ended up better than that as the ball remarkably hit the pin before agonisingly staying out. He finishes -6 and joins Koepka at the top of the leaderboard. Two shot advantage over their nearest challengers.
Should have had the flagstick out Bryson!
It has been a very tough afternoon for world No 1 Rose after finding himself +4 thru just nine holes. But he is doing everything possible to try and cut the big deficit at the moment. He fights back with a birdie on the 17th to move back to +3.
Haven't heard or seen too much of Francesco Molinari today but he has enjoyed a very solid performance out there.
The Italian, the hero at Le Golf National for Europe in the Ryder Cup this summer, records a -2 opening round to put himself in a strong position.
All good things have to come to an end sometimes. After four birdies in a row, Koepka can't find another one on the 16th and he will be disappointed with that.
On the par-3 16th, his delightful tee shot ended up close to the pin. However, the American couldn't convert his downhill right-to-left putt and he walks off with par.
Poulter: "I have played great today. It is always nice to get off to a decent start. Tee to green I kept giving myself chances. It is a solid start to the week."
And just like that, DeChambeau has cut Koepka's lead to just one stroke. The 'mad scientist' has continued his surge by chipping in from the edge of the green on the 17th for birdie. He now moves to -5.
And I say two shots off the lead because Koepka has just extended his lead to -6. The long-hitting American birdied the par-5 15th. A magnificent first round by the three-time major winner.
Ian Poulter enjoyed a brilliant opening round on Thursday and has well and truly put himself in a strong position heading into Friday's play. The Englishman sits just two shots off the lead.
He cardied five birdies and one bogey for a fine round of 68!
Mickelson charges up the leaderboard after making back-to-back birdies on the 15th and 16th. A strong finale for 'Lefty' as he moves to -4, just one shot off the lead.
Johnson, along with DeChambeau, moves another step closer to his friend Koepka after making birdie on the par-13 16th. The pair are both on -4.
Aphibarnrat and Kisner finish up!
Aphibarnrat and Kisner finish off with pars on the last to record rounds of -3. Good stuff from the pair there!
Meanwhile, DeChambeau nearly makes a hole-in-one on the par-3 16th. The American's tee shot rolls down the slope on the right before finishing up just whiskers away from the hole. What a shot. Imagine the scenes if that went in!
Bryson DeChambeau more than takes his time over his eagle putt on the par-5 15th. And it nearly pays off as the ball stays just high of the hole. Good effort from the American and he moves to -3 with three holes remaining.
Aphibarnrat and Kisner watch the action in front of them as they wait to tee off on the final hole on Thursday.
Brooks Koepka is on fire at the moment at Augusta. The American has now got the outright lead on -5 after a magnificent birdie on the 14th. Can he stretch his lead even further?
Wallace not a happy man!
After such a high yesterday of winning the par-3 contest, Matt Wallace has been left angered by his performance in the opening round of the Masters.
"I didn't enjoy it. Simple as that really, I didn't play well."
Strong words from the Englishman.
Poulter takes the outright lead!
Ian Poulter has been in fine form so far this round and has now been rewarded by taking the outright lead. The Englishman is -4 after recording a birdie at the tricky par-3 16th. Great stuff from him!
61-year-old Bernhard Langer has been under par for most of the day and wowed the crowd on the 18th at Augusta just now.
The German, a two-time Masters winner, opted to putt from off the green on the 18th with par looking likely. But Langer had other ideas, sinking the lengthy putt to post a -1 opening round.
It really just hasn't happened for Jordan Spieth today. He fails to pick up a shot on the birdieable par-5 13th and stays +4. Has plenty of work to do to try and get back into contention this week!
Kiradech Aphibarnrat joins the leaders bunched up together at the top on-3. The 29-year-old, from Thailand, sinks a birdie putt on the par-3 16th.
Joint-leader Kevin Kisner will be hugely relieved after escaping the water on the par-3 16th. The American's tee shot doesn't have enough legs and lands short of the green. Luckily for him, his ball doesn't roll into the water and he will be hoping to rescue par.
Day is really battling out there and makes a brilliant birdie on the 13th to move to within one shot of the lead.
Meanwhile, Bryson DeChambeau and Dustin Johnson both make birdies to share the lead at Augusta. Very bunched up at the top of the leaderboard now.
The Englishman is struggling big time right now. Casey has found the dreaded bunker at the back of the par-3 12th and faces a horrible shot next.
And he tries to be cautious as he doesn't want his ball rolling too far into the water. But it doesn't pay off and he stays in the bunker. Looks like he will make bogey and move to +6.
Jason Day is continuing to battle physically but he still seems to be coping and has a birdie opportunity on the 13th after a nice approach shot to the par-5. Has a 10-foot putt to move to -2.
Justin Thomas is getting frustrated with his putter. The American misses a birdie putt on 11 to go into the red figures. He stays level par but it just isn't going for him today.
Day in trouble out on the course!
Massively frustrating for US PGA Championship winner Jason Day. The Australian is enjoying a solid round of -1 but a recurring back injury is setting him back. Very sad to see!
Hopefully he can continue and gets through the day.
Kevin Kisner, who recently won the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play, has moved to -2 after birdie at the par-4 14th. The American is now just one shot off the lead.
Kuchar has been playing great golf recently and he has been rewarded here at Augusta. The American eagles the par-5 13th after sinking a 15-foot putt. It moves him to -2.
33-year-old Patton Kizzire endures an extremely disappointing finish. He headed up the last in a share of the lead on -3. However, the American could only bogey the hole after missing a short putt for par.
"I am happy to be done, I played really well for the first eight and then it was tough for the last 10 holes. I struggled. The golf course is so tough, there is no let up any time of the day."
Spieth now +4 thru the front nine holes. Many big names have struggled today, including Rose (+4) and Casey (+5).
Tough start to the back nine for Dustin Johnson. The American drops a shot at the 10th after missing a tricky downhill putt from five feet.
After building up some momentum on the back straight, McIlroy will be hugely disappointed with his final two holes.
He posts back-to-back bogeys on the 17th and 18th to finish his opening round on +1. Four shots off the lead.
It has been a really frustrating afternoon for Jordan Spieth. The three-time major winner (2015 Masters champion) is currently +3 after eight holes.
Rose's dream of claiming the green jacket at the end of the week seems very far away right now. He is having a horrid time out there.
The world No 1 is currently +4 after just nine holes. Can he get out of this rut? He needs to quickly!
Tiger Woods and Jon Rahm have finished up for the day. Woods heads into his second round -2, while Rahm shares the clubhouse lead on -3.
Their playing partner Haotong Li finishes level par after bogey at the last.
The Northern Irishman is in trouble here on the 18th. After posting a bogey on the 17th, McIlroy hits his tee shot on the final hole down the left. And he faces a horrible second shot here.
He is level par heading up the last.
A birdie miss for Brooks Koepka on the 8th. The three-time major winner has a chance to go one shot off the lead but he fails to sink his putt from roughly five feet. He will be very frustrated with himself there.
It has been a good start to the year for Fowler and he has taken his form into the Masters. The American has a chance to go -3 and join the leaders but his birdie putt drifts just left of the hole.
It has been a strong start by Fleetwood at Augusta. Europe's Ryder Cup hero saves par on the 18th to record 71 (-1). He has put himself in a solid position heading into Friday.
Woods falls away from the leaders now after picking up a bogey on the par-4 17th. He will be extremely disappointed with that so close to the end of the round.
A bit shy from Rahm on the 17th as he goes for birdie. His attempted putt rolls just short of the hole and he stays on -3 with just one hole remaining.
Dustin Johnson makes another birdie - this time on the eighth. He moves to -2 after sinking a five-foot putt. Now just one shot off the lead.
McIlroy seems to have the momentum now. The Northern Irishman, chasing his first Masters victory, sinks a brilliant lengthy birdie putt to move into the red figures. Great stuff from the four-time major champion.
Poulter has a chance to move to -2 on the 10th but faces a tricky downhill putt. The Englishman has a 10-foot putt but must be careful to not over-hit it, otherwise it could roll well past the hole.
And he is cautious as his putt falls just short of the hole!
He will be extremely disappointed with this. The world No 1 has a small putt for par on the par-4 seventh but he fails to convert. And it clearly gets to him!
Woods has the chance to grab the outright lead on the par-3 16th but he has a lot of work to do.
The American has around 20-foot for birdie but his putt falls just short to the right. Been a brilliant opening round and he has sent a message to the rest of the field!
McIlroy moves back to level par after picking up a shot at the par-5 15th. Can he claim another birdie before the end of his round to take momentum heading into Friday?
Despite a wobble on the par-5 15th, Woods manages to save par following a duff chip from the edge of the green.
He attempted to go big with his second shot on the par-5 but saw his ball run over the green. He then mis-hit his chip shot and needed an up-and-down to save par. But he did exactly that.
Casey headed into the Masters in fine form, successfully defending the Valspar Championship last month.
But he is +5 after just give holes, having double bogeyed the fifth. Needs a quick turnaround!
Charley Hoffman will have a big smile on his face right now after holing a monster birdie putt on the 17th. The 42-year-old American moves to -1 with just one hole remaining in his opening round.
Spieth saves par on the fifth after sinking his five-foot putt. That will give him some confidence after a tough time of late. He is currently +1.
2013 Masters champion enjoyed a perfect ending to his round, finishing off with two birdies to move to -3 and take the joint-lead.
Five-way tie at the top now!
Patton Kizzire and Gary Woodland have joined Woods, Harding and Rahm on -3. Some strong first round performances going on out there at the moment!
More frustration for Rory after missing another birdie chance, this time on the 14th. He stays +1 with four holes remaining.
Dustin Johnson hits a good putt on the par-3 6th but he isn't rewarded. The world No 2 stays on -1 after six holes.
Meanwhile, 2017 winner has a frustrating first day at Augusta. The Spaniard finishes +1 for the round.
More like it from Rory!
More like it from one of the pre-tournament favourites. McIlroy hits a delightful approach shot to 14, setting himself up with a birdie chance after picking up a shot on the previous hole. Currently +1.
And Tiger makes a remarkable birdie!
That is extraordinary from Tiger. After the brilliant approach shot from the trees, the 43-year-old sinks a monster birdie putt to move to -3 after 14 holes.
He is now joint-leader with Rahm and Harding.
Wow... what a shot from Tiger!
Woods finds himself in trouble on the 14th, missing the fairway on the left.
He has trees in front of his way and needs a miracle to find the green... and that's exactly what he does.
The 14-time major winner goes over the trees and finds the middle of the green. Great stuff from Woods!
A beauitful tee shot from Rose isn't matched with the putt. The world No 1 fails to sink his birdie on the par-3 fourth.
Stays level par so far!
It hasn't been a great start for McIlroy but Woods has found his form. The American great has made another birdie on the par-5 13th to move to -2 after 13.
Rahm riding the crest of a wave!
Rahm has found his form early on and is right up there at the top. The Spaniard now sits -3 after birdie at the 13th. Can he take the overall lead going into the final five holes?
McIlroy will have to be patient this week. The Northern Irishman agonisingly misses a lengthy putt for birdie on the par-3 12th, which would have taken him back to +1.
However, he has two par-5s coming up, which he will be hoping to capitalise on!
It's been a quick start by Ian Poulter at Augusta. The Englishman moves to -2 after holing a birdie putt from 10 feet on the sixth.
Tough start for Spieth and Casey!
Jordan Spieth and Paul Casey got off to poor starts to their 2019 Masters campaigns. The Ryder Cup rivals both bogeyed the first hole.
However, Spieth bounced back immediately on the par-5 second but Casey can only manage par.
Meanwhile, their other playing partner - Brooks Koepka - goes -1 after birdie on the second.
It's not going to plan for Rory and he will hoping to tighten up his game heading into the final few holes.
He headed into the back nine - level par - but bogeys on the 10th and 11th have put him +2!
The good news... he is moving into a very scoreable part of the golf course!
Agony for the world No 1 early on! The Englishman looks to get off the perfect start with birdie on the second but he sees his great putt roll all the way around the hole before staying up!
Very tough to take but he will be confident of bouncing back straight away.
What a few days for Conners!
What a whirlwind couple of days for Corey Conners. After qualifying for the Masters after superbly winning the Valero Texas Open, the Canadian has taken to Augusta by storm.
The 27-year-old finishes his first round -2, just one shot off the lead! Fantastic stuff.
The hugely talented Jon Rahm makes a superb birdie on the 11th!
The Spaniard has a lengthy putt for birdie but a composed and confident stroke sends the ball firmly on its way before sinking into the hole!
Fleetwood has lost a tiny bit of momentum after dropping a shot on the 10th!
However, he managed to stay strong and par the 11th and 12th. He is currently -1 with six holes remaining in his opening round.
What an opening round for Justin Harding at Augusta. The South African dropped a shot on the last but will still be happy shooting -3. What a way to calm any nerves!
Big names keep heading out!
A lot of the big names are out now and the action is starting to heat up!
Jordan Spieth, Paul Casey and Brooks Koepka have just teed off on the first - another enthralling group to follow.
Hope you enjoy all the action tonight!
He finally holds his nerve after a frustrating couple of holes to move into the back nine -1.
The 14-time major winner, chasing Nicklaus' record of 18 major victories, birdies the par-4 ninth after a fine approach!
Big group about to get underway!
An exciting group is just about to start their Masters campaign! Phil Mickelson, world No 1 Justin Rose and Justin Thomas get started any minute now.
I am sure big crowds will be following that one at a sunny Augusta!
From one Masters champion to another. It is not just Woosnam having a day to forget. 2009 winner Angel Cabrera is +10 with just two holes remaining at Augusta.
Meanwhile, Woosnam has picked up two shots and is now +8!
McIlroy gets back to level par after birdie at the par-5 eighth. He will hoping to continue his momentum on the ninth and into the back nine to put himself into a strong position early on.
The Golden Bear enjoyed this morning!
No pace of play issue here!
Yet we still soak in every minute of one swing!
Another opportunity wasted by Tiger! He fails to get into the red figures after missing a birdie opportunity from 11 feet on the par-5 eighth.
He will be hoping to find his line and length on the back nine.
We have a new leader. South African Justin Harding heads into the lead after sinking his birdie putt on the 15th. He is -3!
Ryder Cup stars Francesco Molinari, Tyrrell Hatton have just teed off alongside Spaniard Rafa Cabrera-Bello. The trio started their round at 6:16pm BST.
Not going to plan for the defending champion!
Patrick Reed will have been hoping for a fast start to his defence at Augusta this year.
However, he finds himself +2 over thru 8 holes.
Tiger has a chance of going under par on the 8th hole - named 'Yellow Jasmine'.
He is just to the right edge of the green in two on the par-5 and will be hoping to make birdie from his position. Can he make it count?
How is McIlroy getting on?
Rory McIlroy is looking to finally seal the career Grand Slam this week at the Masters but he will have to get over his Augusta heartache to claim the prestigious green jacket.
The 29-year-old came close to winning the Masters in 2011 after heading into the final round four shots clear but he blew his chances on the Sunday.
Can this be his year? Well he will have to improve on his start. He is currently +1 over thru 6 holes.
Tommy Fleetwood, who heads in the tournament in fine form, has got off to a strong start at Augusta.
The Southport-born golfer is 2 under thru the first seven holes.
Ahead of the first major of the year, Fleetwood vowed he would take on an aggressive approach and he has done just that so far!
1991 Masters winner Ian Woosnam is having a round to forget out on the course today. The Welshman is currently +10 thru just 14 holes. He will be hoping for a few birdies to soften the blow on the home straight.
Tiger will head to the seventh tee feeling very disappointed with himself. The 14-time major winner, who has enjoyed a steady start hits a perfect approach shot to the par-3 sixth, leaving himself with a five-foot putt for birdie.
However, Tiger wastes the chance to go under par. He will be hoping to bounce back quickly enough!
That's the first of the week, and it's gone to Corey Conners, out in the first group of the day, who has leapt to the top of the leaderboard at three under. A huge drive on the 15th was followed by a gorgeous mid-iron to four feet. Brilliant.
His putter lets down all that hard work, but there will be plenty more victims on this super-tough hole. Back to level and still a solid start.
Rahm, indeed, is another victim of the 5th. His approach went long and right - you're dead up there.
The 1988 Masters champion, now 61 years old, birdies the 2nd to move to one under. He nearly won the Par-3 Contest on Wednesday too so he must be swinging well. He's currently two shots better off than Rickie Fowler, who's made a slow start though four holes.
The long 5th looks like it might claim another victim here. Woods drives into a fairway bunker and can only bump his ball up the fairway. Must have been up near the face of the trap there. Still, his wedge is a beauty, leaving five feet left. Still a chance of a par.
But McIlroy finally kicks into gear with a birdie at the 3rd, set up by a beautiful pitch.
Haotong Li and Patton Kizzire join the fun at two under, but Schauffele drops one back. Stenson is back under par after a birdie at the 6th too. Rahm does what Tiger couldn't do by converting at the 3rd - the fiery Spaniard is one under.
That's not at all the start McIlroy would have been thinking about. This hole has birdie written all over it, especially after McIlroy finds the short grass next to the green in two, but while his pitch is good, his putt from 7 ft misses.
Tiger pars the 3rd after a chip to kick-in range.
Crikey. McIlroy opens with a bogey - and he's lucky to make that really. The world's best with a driver in his hand carves his opening tee shot miles right into the trees. A hacked second shot looks like it hits another tree but the ball escapes and he's able to pitch on and two-putt. Not good, but a long way to go though.
After that wonderful drive, Woods finds sand with his approach, but no matter. His bunker shot is splashed out to four feet, and that's an early birdie.
Swchauffele has also picked up one on the 2nd and he's now two under, alongside Harding and Louis Oosthuizen, the former runner-up here. Tommy Fleetwood birdies that second hole too.
Yes, it's very, very early. But the early signs are that Woods is bang on his game here. He's ripped another belter off the 2nd tee, this one all of 340 yards.
Elsewhere, Jon Rahm starts with a par, but Xander Schauffele. second at The Open last summer, goes one better with an opening birdie. Stenson is back to level after a dropped shot at the 5th.
No sign of nerves from the great man on the first tee as he booms a drive 317 yards down the fairway, giving himself a nice angle in for his second shot at the first... and his approach isn't bad either as he leaves himself a 30-footer for birdie.
The Ryder Cup hero has just chipped in on the par-four third hole, moving to one under.
Meanwhile, Tommy Fleetwood has left himself a very long birdie putt at the first, as Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy near their tee-off times.
Bjerregard has thrown away his lightning start, hacking into the trees at the short 4th, then pitching into a bunker and running up a double-bogey 5.
Harding and Emiliano Grillo now sit top at two under. Branden Grace joins Pepperell at one under.
Defending champion Reed starts with a par, but Matsuyama has somehow made a mess of the relatively simple 2nd too, finding sand twice.
59-year-old Freddie Couples, the 1992 champion, birdied the 2nd to get under par but has now dropped back. Pepperell, meanwhile, is into red numbers after a pinpoint wedge at the 2nd.
And it's an early bogey for the hotly-tipped Hideki Matsuyama.
Suddenly Lucas Bjerregaard (easy for you to say) leads the Masters after back-to-back birdies at 2 and 3. The big-hitting Dane made a big impression at the WGC Match Play recently, taking out Tiger Woods in a brilliant tussle, overpowered the 2nd for an easy birdie and played a beautiful pitch into the 3rd for another tap-in.
Garcia, Finau and Stenson all in with pars at the 1st, Finau having payed a lovely pitch to 5 ft to escape trouble.
Our man Kanaya drops a shot at the 4th, the tough par-3, after missing the green to the right with his tee shot.
Both are at the practice area right now, hitting in a bunker together and having a good chinwag and a laugh, according to reports from Augusta.
Things are about to heat up round here. Check out the list of the next few groups teeing off. T-minus one hour until both Tiger and Rory are out on the course.
Eddie Pepperell opens his Masters career with a creditable par at the 1st. That 200/1 shot Mitchell is now back at one over after bogeying the 4th.
Perhaps more importantly, Garcia, Finau and Stenson are out on the course!
Harding and Tway are both up there alongside Kanaya after birdies at the 3rd and 4th respectively. Willett also dips into red numbers after getting up and down for birdie on the 2nd.
Not too many people will have fancied Kanaya to feature too high up the leaderboard, despite his win in the Asia-Pacific Amateur win, but he is two under par now thanks to a brilliant start. His first birdie was set up by a huge hook round trees to 25 feet on the 1st, while his second came courtesy of a more conventional lay-up then chip and putt at the 2nd.
Blues skies, towering pines, lush green grass. Yep, this looks like the Masters!
The talented Irishman has not got on well with Augusta in his three previous visits - he's missed the cut twice - and he's opened up with a bogey today after driving into the trees.
He's not going to be the only one who does that today though - 2009 champion Angel Cabrera has also bogeyed the 1st after firing into the trees on the other side of the fairway.
Four players have suddenly dipped under par with early birdies, the first of this year's Masters - Tway at the second, and Justin Harding, Brandt Snedeker and Takumi Kanaya, the Japanese amateur, at the 1st.
Here is the post-first round leaderboard position for the last 13 Masters champions.
Ian Woosnam leads the Masters!
Slightly misleading, I admit. But the 61-year-old Welshman, the 1991 champion, has parred the first hole to sit in a tie at the top with just six names on the board. Keith Mitchell, a much-tipped outside bet at 200/1, is also level after one.
Want to watch the Masters on TV?
Well, I've got good news and bad. The good news is that you can watch full live coverage on Sky Sports from 7pm. That bad is that Augusta is controlling their output as usual, meaning until then we have to make do with a couple of featured groups from 2.50pm on the red button, and a live stream of Amen Corner (the 11th approach, 12th hole and 13th tee) from 3.45pm.
The BBC have highlights of each day, and will show the entire weekend's play live.
But stick with Sportsmail across all four days for all the action!
Conners - par. Landry - bogey. Long - bogey.
Over to you, Messrs Landry, Long and Conners (sounds like a firm of solicitors...) Who's going to post the first birdie - and bogey - of the 83rd Masters?
Despite being four years older than his great rival and friend, Player outdrives Nicklaus with a beauty right down the centre of the fairway. If you're in Augusta today I'd steer clear of him if I were you because he won't stop going on about it I'm sure.
With a few grumbles and groans about being stiff, the 79-year-old winner of six green jackets cracks a drive down the 1st fairway and the 2019 Masters Tournament is underway!
After the old boys get us underway, the first proper action will be provided by Andrew Landry, Adam Long and Corey Conners. Not an all-star group I admit, but things hot up pretty quickly. Among the early birds are former champions Danny Willett and Fred Couples, plus the likes of Ireland's Shane Lowry and good old Eddie Pepperell, the colourful character from Oxford who's playing in his first Masters.
The day's first group of big guns goes out at 2.58 - Sergio Garcia, Tony Finau and Henrik Stenson. After that, there's no going back and it's big hitters all the way.
Nicklaus: 45 Masters from 1959-2005, 163 rounds, 11,733 strokes (71.98 average), six green jackets.
Player: 52 Masters from 1957-2009, 164 rounds, 12,061 strokes (73.54 average), three green jackets.
And how about the rest?
There are potential winners right through the field this year, from Tommy Fleetwood and Rickie Fowler to Francesco Molinari and Jack Nicklaus.
OK, well not the last one. But the Golden Bear and his fellow Golden Oldie, Gary Player, will be hitting their ceremonial tee shots very soon, which will signal the start of this year's tournament.
Dustin Johnson has win twice already this year and when he's at full tilt he looks near unstoppable. Could this be the year he finally wins major No 2?
OK, so he doesn't look all that chipper here, but Justin Rose really does love Augusta, having led after rounds one, two and three in the past, as well as losing a play-off. He's gotta win this thing soon, surely?
Rory McIlroy is surely the man to beat this year, however. He's barely been out of the top five at every tournament he's played all year, and he won the prestigious Players title last month, so watch out Augusta. Maybe this is finally when he wins that green jacket at long last. And become the sixth man in history to win golf's Grand Slam of all four majors.
Can you believe Tiger Woods has not won at Augusta National since 2005? He's been through hell with injuries but you'd better believe it - he's back and ready to win here again this year.
Are you excited? You must be excited. I'm excited. Can you tell?
It's the best day of the golfing year. It's time to drive down Magnolia Lane once again. It's the Masters!


If you claim that in a better future those who cannot pay a poll tax will not vote, that is one proposal, in isolation. If you claim that "someone on welfare should not vote here and now" you must accept that in a mixed economy everyone is "on welfare"; and some people "on welfare" deserve to vote.
Which is the strength and, at the same time, total weakness of Socialism or why does Capitalism fail in its endeavor to convince, while giving such good benefits to the general population in the rarely attained opportunities when it is effectively applied?
An Objectivist analysis of the motives that move people to hate Capitalism.
What you tax you get less of; and what you subsidize you get more of. The brightest people in the world are making video games; and no one is on the Moon. It did not take a genius to figure this out: it is a universal law of human action. There is a destroyer loose in the who is shutting off the motor of the world, slowing the engine of creation, tapping out the extra power of invention.

Ian: I feel like a different person!
After a number of wake-up calls – including a quadruple heart bypass – Ian realised he needed to do something about his weight and decided to join WW. And while he was skeptical at first, he lost a massive 8st and become a WW Coach!
"I'm a huge advocate of the app - it's like having the WW website with you all the time. I track, scan barcodes, find new recipes… It's all there. "
Start weight: 21st 5.5lb | Weight loss: 8st 6.5lb*
Current weight: 13st 13lb
Height: 5' 10" | Age: 57
Studio: Hoddelsden, Blackburn
WW Coach: Melissa Freeman
When you've undergone a quadruple heart bypass and stared death in the face you can go one of two ways. You can vow to turn your life around and make healthier choices or you can think, 'Life is short and I'm going to enjoy every last minute.'
Unfortunately, after my operation in 2001, I took the latter path. The shock of being told I needed heart surgery did nothing to change my eating habits and when I came out of hospital, I went from 15st to over 21st over several years. Curries, takeaways, pints of beer – I simply overindulged but I describe it now as 'food abuse'. My waist was 46in, my collar was 20in and sometimes I'd struggle to get into XXXL clothing.
So at the end of March 2016 we all joined WW, my son Andrew and I online, while Karen went to WW Workshops. But I later joined Karen at her WW Workshop and really enjoyed it. It made us both realise where we'd been going wrong.
The weight was coming off and I was feeling so much healthier. But I was excited to try WW Freestyle™. I couldn't believe how easy it was and how many foods were 0 SmartPoints®. I love making a three egg mushroom omelette in the mornings; it's quick and so filling. I can add 20g WW grated cheese or three bacon medallions for 1 SmartPoint for variety too. And in the evening, I can still enjoy alcohol; I just track it. Before, I'd have a whole bottle of wine with a steak, but I've cut back and can now enjoy a couple of glasses without needing more.
I've now become a WW Coach and it's a great way to keep motivated because I'm practising what I preach. I feel like a different person. I can walk up hills no problem and I bought a pair of jeans the other day that have a 30in waist. I've lost more than 100lb in weight – that's a third of my bodyweight – and lots of people say I'm inspiring. But if I can do it anyone can.
ZeroPoint™ foods are great to bulk meals up. You can now add things like kidney beans to chilli or chickpeas to chicken jalfrezi and it doesn't alter the SmartPoints value.
I'm a huge advocate of the WW app - it's like having the website with you all the time. I track, scan barcodes, find new recipes… It's all there. There's a very supportive community on Connect and I found that particularly motivating when I was doing the programme online. I find looking at other people's progress really inspiring.

Gatecreeper Release New Track
Arizona death metal newcomers GATECREEPER have announced their savage debut album Sonoran Depravation. The album's lead track "Craving Flesh" can be heard now via Soundcloud and YouTube. You can check it out here.
Having devastated the underground since their formation less than three years ago, GATECREEPER now unleashes their first full-length, produced by Ryan Bram at Homewrecker Studios and mixed by Kurt Ballou (Converge, Nails, Black Breath) at God City Studios. Sonoran Depravation tears and chugs through more than thirty minutes of crusty, doom-soaked death metal at its most infectious and uncompromising with a massive sound that calls to mind the classic Swedish buzz-saw attack of Dismember and Grave mixed with the impeccable groove of Obituary and Bolt Thrower.
Sonoran Depravation is set for an October 7th release via Relapse Records and can be preordered on physical and digital formats.
