Today is the beginning of a new cycle, a kind of new year, with this first new moon in Aries. It is a time of new beginnings and igniting energies that will begin to unfold now as the year moves forward. Some will explode into form like they've been waiting for a hundred years; others will develop more slowly, in perfect timing, as the year progresses.
Think of this time of year like a fresh start. It is an opportunity to begin again. If today is the beginning of a new cycle, what will you make? What emerging ideas will spark into creation?
Use your meditation in these next few days to plant a seed or many. See yourself as a cosmic gardener, weeding your garden of the clutter of the past and making room for the new growth that is coming. Clean out your closet mentally and quite literally. Let everything superfluous go. Let go of old hurts, let go of old things, just let go.
In your meditation see yourself standing on top of a high mountain looking outward, scanning the horizon, breathing in the clear, cold, crystalline air. In your hands are feathers that you have carefully collected that represent your soul's true desires. As you stand on the edge of the mountain, affirm deep within yourself, "Today is the beginning", as you throw the feathers high up in the air and watch them transform into white doves, owls and hummingbirds. They sweep around you once and fly into the heavens.
Presidents should not be impeached because we disagree with them.
The above statement comes from the chairman of the Vermont Republican Party , James Barnett, and I totally agree with him.
(1) Information from translations of documents found in Iraq has recently been translated and published by ABC News, Newsmax, and The Weekly Standard (among others) and it shows that besides the fact that every major country in the world shared President Bush's intelligence about WMD (no small thing), Saddam was, in fact, hiding dangerous materials from the inspectors.
(2) Gen. Georges Sada (former senior military advisor to Saddam) says that he had the weapons transported to Syria before the invasion.
(3) The above-mentioned translations also prove that Saddam was, in fact, colluding with bin Laden.
Now, I don't know if anyone else cares, but I don't want anarchy in this country.
If you think the President has done something wrong, prove it or shut up.
Why don't people remember the saying "United we stand, divided we fall?"
If everyone who disagrees with a President of the United States undermines him (as the current President's opponents continue to do), how can we be governed? We can't! And anarchy is ugly and dysfunctional and will spell the end of our freedom.
I have always supported our elected officials until and unless they were proven to be unworthy and so should you. Otherwise, what the hell are we all doing here? Just hand over the country to the terrorists, then, and save yourself (and everyone else) a bunch of time and trouble!
Personally, though, I think you are living in a dreamworld if you don't know the difference between a REAL police state and our country...and if you really don't, please move or spend time in another country and get educated on someone else's dime.
On their special day a Good Fairy came to them and said that because they had been so good each one of them could have one wish.

""Enough generations of socialist policies have now passed for us to judge their effects. They are bleak.
Socialism undermines the character of a nation and of its citizens. In simpler words, socialism makes people worse.
Socialism teaches its citizens that they have a plethora of rights and few corresponding obligations except to be taxed.
And that is why the citizens of less socialist and more religious America give more charity per capita and per income than do citizens of socialist countries. That is why Americans volunteer time for the needy so much more than citizens of socialist countries do. That is why citizens of conservative states in America give more charity than citizens of liberal states do.
The more Left one identifies oneself on the political spectrum, the more that person is likely to believe that the state, not fellow citizens, should take care of the poor and the needy.
But we all suspected this, now didn't we?

This is a brand new website just launched by a former Marine Lieutenant named Wade Zirkle.
During the last year, he's been recovering from injuries that were received when his unit was attacked and six of his fellow Marines were killed.
Perhaps this is, in part, a response to the partisan politics of those who would rather sacrifice our country by undermining EVERYTHING--not just the war in Iraq--that President Bush does in order to bring him down.
"I work with Mayor Najim [Mayor of Tall 'Afar, Ninewa, Iraq]. He gets it. The vast majority of the Iraqi people get it. Almost all of us in uniform over here get it, as do our families back home. If the Democrats don't stop the nonsense and get it now, I can assure you, al-Qa'ida will give it to all of us later."
To the Courageous Men and Women of the 3d Armored Cavalry Regiment, who have changed the city of Tall' Afar from a ghost town, in which terrorists spread death and destruction, to a secure city flourishing with life.
Our city was the main base of operations for Abu Mousab Al Zarqawi. The city was completely held hostage in the hands of his henchmen. Our schools, governmental services, businesses and offices were closed. Our streets were silent, and no one dared to walk them. Our people were barricaded in their homes out of fear; death awaited them around every corner. Terrorists occupied and controlled the only hospital in the city. Their savagery reached such a level that they stuffed the corpses of children with explosives and tossed them into the streets in order to kill grieving parents attempting to retrieve the bodies of their young. This was the situation of our city until God prepared and delivered unto them the courageous soldiers of the 3d Armored Cavalry Regiment, who liberated this city, ridding it of Zarqawi's followers after harsh fighting, killing many terrorists, and forcing the remaining butchers to flee the city like rats to the surrounding areas, where the bravery of other 3d ACR soldiers in Sinjar, Rabiah, Zumar and Avgani finally destroyed them.
Finally, no matter how much I write or speak about this brave Regiment, I haven't the words to describe the courage of its officers and soldiers. I pray to God to grant happiness and health to these legendary heroes and their brave families.
The night is full of hope.
It is everywhere. Permeating everything.
All we have to do is tap into it. It's already on like the electricity is already there before you plug the toaster in.
As you move through the day sense the atmosphere. Feel the hope that is all around us. Let your spirit get sparked and sparkled by it.
It will give you energy. It will give you endurance. It will lighten your Way.
Take a deep breath. Let your breath move beyond your lungs into your shoulders and neck and head.
Take another deep breath. Feel your breath move from the soles of your feet, up and all the way through your body, to the crown of your head.
Take one more breath and say in your heart as you do: "I flow peace through my breath. I flow peace in my life."
An old farmer had a pond on his property, next to a peach orchard. One day he took a bucket to go gather some peaches.
As he neared the pond, he heard splashing and giggling, and gleeful squealing. He arrived to find half a dozen young women skinny-dipping in his pond.
The young women spotted him and gathered in the deep end. One of them shouted, "We're not getting out until you leave."
The old farmer replied, "I didn't come here to see naked women (he held up the bucket) I just came to feed the alligator."

"Liberals tend to blame outside forces for evil. This emanates from the secular humanistic view of people as basically good—and therefore human evil must come not from the bad choices and bad values of the evildoer, but from the unfortunate socioeconomic and other circumstances of the person's life.
As you go further left on the political spectrum, it becomes increasingly difficult to blame the 'weak' for any atrocities they commit. The Left does not divide the world between good and evil nearly as much as it does between rich and poor, and between strong and weak.
Israel is stronger and richer, so Palestinian terror is excused. White America is stronger and richer than black America, so black violence is excused. The West is stronger and richer than the Muslim world, so Muslim violence is explained accordingly.
Two blondes living in Oklahoma were sitting on a bench talking and one blonde says to the other, "Which do you think is farther away Florida or the moon?" The other blonde turns and says "Helloooooooooo, can you see Florida?"
A blonde pushes her BMW into a gas station. She tells the mechanic it died. After he works on it for a few minutes, it is idling smoothly. She says, "What's the story?" He replies, "Just crap in the carburetor" She asks, "How often do I have to do that?"
FINALLY: THE BLONDE JOKE TO END ALL BLONDE JOKES!
A girl was visiting her blonde friend, who had acquired two new dogs, and asked her what their names were. The blonde responded by saying that one was named Rolex and one was named Timex. Her friend said, "Whoever heard of someone naming dogs like that?" "HELLLOOOOOOO," answered the blond. "They're watch dogs!"
For many years Ben Stein wrote a biweekly column called "Monday Night At Morton's." (Morton's is a famous chain of Steakhouses known to be frequented by movie stars and famous people from around the globe.) Last year Ben terminated the column in order to move on to other things in his life. Reading his final column is worth a few minutes of your time.
It worked well for a long time, but gradually, my ! changing as a person and the world's change have overtaken it. On a small scale, Morto! n's, while better than ever, no longer attracts as many stars as it used to. It still brings in the rich people in droves and definitely some stars. I saw Samuel L. Jackson there a few days ago, and we had a nice visit, and right before that, I saw and had a splendid talk with Warren Beatty in an elevator, in which we agreed that Splendor in the Grass was a super movie But Morton's is not the star galaxy it once was, though it probably will be again.
Beyond that, a bigger change has happened. I no longer think Hollywood stars are terribly important . They are uniformly pleasant, friendly people, and they treat me better than I deserve to be treated. But a man or woman who makes a huge wage for memorizing lines and reciting them in front of a camera is no longer my idea of a shining star we should all look up to.
How can a man or woman who makes an eight-figure wage and lives in in! sane luxury really be a star in today's world, if by a "star" we mean someone bright! and powerful and attractive as a role model? Real stars are not riding around in the backs of limousines or in Porsches or getting trained in yoga or Pilates and eating only raw fruit while they have Vietnamese girls do their nails.
A real star, the kind who haunts my memory night and day, is the U.S. soldier in Baghdad who saw a little girl playing with a piece of unexploded ordnance on a street near where he was guarding a station. He pushed her aside! and threw himself on it just as it exploded. He left a family desolate in California and a little girl alive in Baghdad.
A: The next time someone says they would like to find God's perfect will for their lives and that they want to be in the center of His will, just send them to the center of His Word!
Psalms 118:8 - "It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man."

The areas that God has come through in your life needs to be shared! The enemy will silence you from sharing about your breakthroughs telling you that you will be perceived as proud or boastful.
Do not give into this lie!
And those who perceive you as such; miss out on the reward of your faith and the potential of theirs.
Testimony is the reality of God is our life and your world needs this "reality check". When we begin to share about what God has done and what He is doing, we give those around us an access card of hope to check into the reality of heaven on earth.
So go for it, TESTIFY!!
May your testimony give courage to others to access their faith and step beyond their unbelief.

UN Environment Programme
Outdoor clothing brand
2019 Champion of the Earth Entrepreneurial Vision
More Resources on Patagonia
At Patagonia, we appreciate that all life on earth is under threat of extinction. We aim to use the resources we have—our business, our investments, our voice and our imaginations—to do something about it.
Since Patagonia was founded in 1973 by renowned environmentalist and entrepreneur Yvon Chouinard, the US outdoor apparel brand has won plaudits for its sustainable supply chains and advocacy for the environment. The company recently updated its mission statement to reflect the urgency of the environmental crisis: "We're in business to save our home planet".
Patagonia was chosen as Champion of the Earth for entrepreneurial vision because of a dynamic mix of policies that has put sustainability at the heart of its successful business model.
From a small company making tools for climbers, Patagonia has become a global leader in sustainability. Its drive to preserve the planet runs through the entire business from the products made and the materials used to the donation of money to environmental causes.
Patagonia describes itself as The Activist Company, and it is clear about its aims: "At Patagonia, we appreciate that all life on earth is under threat of extinction. We aim to use the resources we have—our business, our investments, our voice and our imaginations—to do something about it."
Nearly 70 per cent of Patagonia's products are made from recycled materials, including plastic bottles, and the goal is to use 100 per cent renewable or recycled materials by 2025. The company also uses hemp and organic cotton. It is committed to simplicity, utility and durability—a novel undertaking in a world where fast fashion is the norm for many companies and consumers.
Patagonia has a Worn Wear Program to encourage consumers to repair and recycle their products, striking a blow against the fast-fashion culture that sees customers locked in a vicious cycle of consumption and waste.
Patagonia also invests in the future. Since 1986, the company has contributed at least 1 per cent of annual sales to the preservation and restoration of the natural environment. In 2002, Chouinard and Craig Mathews, founder of Blue Ribbon Flies, created a non-profit organization—1% for the Planet—to encourage other companies to do the same.
Thanks to its 1 per cent pledge, Patagonia has provided more than US$100 million to grassroot organizations and helped train thousands of young activists over the past 35 years.
In 2018, Patagonia said it would give an additional US$10 million from the 2017 federal tax cut to grassroots groups defending the planet's air, water and land, as well as those involved in the regenerative organic agriculture movement—a holistic approach to growing crops that prioritizes soil health and aims to sequester carbon from the atmosphere.
Patagonia is working with around 100 small farmers who grow cotton using regenerative practices in India, and it plans to expand this to 450. The farmers control pests with traps, and weed and gather the cotton by hand. Regenerative agriculture has long been a priority for Patagonia, both for its clothing and its line of food products, Patagonia Provisions, which aims to reshape the food chain.
As part of its advocacy on environmental issues, the company has also set up Patagonia Action Works, which connects committed individuals to organizations working on environmental issues in the same community.
Champions of the Earth is the United Nations' flagship global environmental award. It was established by the UN Environment Programme in 2005 to celebrate outstanding figures whose actions have had a transformative positive impact on the environment. Laureates have included heads of state, environmental defenders and technology pioneers.
Previous laureates in the entrepreneurial vision category include India's Cochin International Airport, the world's first solar power airport (2018); Paul Polman, the former Chief Executive Officer of Unilever (2015); and the U.S. Green Building Council, a private not-for-profit organization that is transforming buildings across the world (2014).
In 2017, Patagonia was awarded the Accenture Strategy Award for Circular Economy Multinational at the World Economic Forum in Davos for driving innovation and growth while reducing dependence on scarce natural resources.
Champions of the Earth, the UN's highest environmental honour, celebrates outstanding figures from the public and private sectors and from civil society whose actions have had a transformative, positive impact on the environment.

UCCE Rice Yield Contest Cont.
In 2015 we conducted a pilot study that was restricted to Butte County. The purpose of the pilot study was to see if the contest could be conducted without interfering with harvest operations or the flow of traffic at the driers. Participating growers had to have the area around the contest plot harvested before the arrival of the supervisors. Two supervisors monitored the test which required 2 to 3 hours for the whole test (unless a retest was required). In general, conducting the contest did little to disrupt flow of harvest and drier operations unless a recheck was done-which tended to slow harvest operations. On average, growers harvested close to 3.5 acres of rice which came close to filling up a set of double trailers.
Participating growers were asked to provide some information which was mandatory while other information on management was optional. In 2015 growers provided all information. Requested information was related to water, nutrient and pest management, variety, combine and header type, etc.
We had five field entries in 2015 which was ideal for a pilot study. Contest plots included M-206 and M-205 varieties. Yields were high and ranged from 108.3 to 126.9 cwt/ac. The winner, Joe Richter, planted M-205. The milling yields on the test plot were 66/73. The second place prize went to Rodney Jenkins with yields of 113.0 cwt/ac (milling yields – 65/69) from a field of M-206. It is early to say what we can learn from such tests; however from a breeder's perspective it provides good information on the genetic potential of available varieties. Results also suggest that even with very high yields, milling quality is still good. From a management prospective, Joe did not do anything unusual but followed solid recommendations for providing nutrients and taking care of pests. His total N rate was 167 lb/ac. Most of this was applied before flooding the field for planting. He applied a starter blend (containing N and P) about a month after planting flown into the standing water and a top dress N application around PI.
In 2016 we would like to expand the contest to the whole Sacramento Valley region. In order for growers to compete on a level playing field we will divide up the valley into 4 regions (E and W of the Sacramento River; N and S of Hwy 20) with growers competing amongst each other within each of those regions. If interested, please sign up by Aug 1, 2016.
The purpose of the California Rice Yield Contest is to provide an opportunity for rice producers and UC scientists to share information about intensive rice production in California and to recognize individuals who have achieved the highest yields in the state. Please read the rules carefully.
Entry form, Rules and Harvest forms can all be viewed and downloaded here.

A quaint home packed to the rafters with trinkets, curiosities, and the occasional miracle. A sleepy kingdom on the cusp of disaster. A wicker gate hanging by its hinges, with Somewhere Else lurking beyond. Three guardians who can save everything—if they can stop squabbling long enough.
Wickedness is a peculiar tabletop game written for exactly three players and one tarot deck, with no dice and no GM. Together, you'll form a coven between three mystical archetypes (the innocent and gentle Pure Heart, the volatile, revelrous Wild Spirit, and the uptight, scholarly Old Soul) and try to keep your world of magic and mystery in balance with the mundane world, in spite of its ignorance, poverty and violence.
Wickedness is played in three acts: in the first, players discover their coven, the sanctuary they call home, a mundane fantasy nation, and the treacherous underworld lurking beneath it. Each player will be assigned one of the three coven archetypes (The Pure Heart, The Old Soul, and The Wild Spirit) by the tarot deck, and then together they'll create the world where they live, and the underworld's strange laws and denizens. Finally, they'll ask heavy-hitting questions about the covens' relationships to one another.
In the second chapter, the cards point to a series of challenges detailed in the games' interpretation Guide, and the players respond: the coven can fall prey to their archetype-specific follies in order to collect cards, spend the cards to solve challenges with wisdom, or use the vast and terrible magic powers at their fingertips-- which is miraculous, but costs the user a piece of their essential nature, striking out and maybe even blackening and replacing a truth on their character sheet. So the players have to strike a balance between keeping the worlds from falling into darkness, and keeping one another from falling apart. If the scales tip too far in any direction, it's entirely possible for the game to come to an abrupt and apocalyptic end.
The final chapter tempts the coven to go their separate ways, but also offers them opportunities to learn from their past mistakes and heal, and finally they'll face their ultimate fates, determining the future of the kingdom, the underworld, and the art of magic itself.
Wickedness uses a bespoke tarot-drawing system loosely inspired by Jay Dragon's Sleepaway, and is a distant descendent of the Belonging Outside Belonging framework developed by Avery Alder and Benjamin Rosenbaum.

Concentrating mainly but not exclusively on the Loire's vineyards, its vignerons and their wines along with places to eat and stay. Also covers some recently published wine books – not just from Loire. Regional Chair for Loire @Decanter's World Wine Awards since its inception. Winner of the 2009 Wine Blog Trophy (journalist category) Salon des Vins de Loire. I have a large and expanding library of photos, particularly from the Loire – places, producers, vineyards etc. European.
Domaine de la Noblaie is in Ligré on the south side of the Vienne – the river that runs through Chinon and joins the Loire at Candes-Saint-Martin. The domaine can trace its history back several centuries – it appears on a Cassini map of 1765.
In 1952 it was bought by Jacqueline and Pierre Manzagol. They were originally from Corréze and ran a dairy in Poissy, one of the western suburbs of Paris. On a visit to Chinon they fell in love with La Noblaie and bought it on the spot. In 1953 the domaine produced just three barriques from five hectares of vines.
In 1968 Madeleine, their daughter, married François Billard from Bordeaux who was trained in wine, so brought with him his wine knowledge and his contacts in the wine trade. François became a professor of oenology at the Lycée Viticole of Montreuil Bellay running the domaine in tandem. One of his pupils was Christophe Daviau of Domaine de Bablut.
By 2000 the domaine had 12 hectares of vines. In 2003 Jérôme, Madeleine and François, returned from working at Pétrus and Dominus (California). The area under vines had now expanded to 18 hectares. Jérôme's wife Élodie joined in 2006. By 2012 the domaine had grown to 24 hectares and a new and spacious winery was built in 2012. Although not fully finished the winery was just operational in time for the vintage.
Jérôme is now one of the best producers in Chinon.
Noblaie now produces four Chinon reds, two whites, a rosé and a Touraine Mousseux (sparkling).
Domaine de la Noblaie – the straight domaine Chinon emphasis on the fruit, aged in stainless steel for eight months.
Les Blanc Manteaux – single vineyard on a limestone ridge, aged for 12 months in 500-litre barrels.
Les Chiens-Chiens – another single vineyard with a significant proportion of clay aged for 12 months in 400-litre barrels and then 8 months in stainless steel.
Pierre de Tuf: from vines planted before the 2nd World World on clay-flint. Vinified in a special stone vat hewn out of limestone dating from 15th Century. 12 months in 500-litre barrels and then eight months in stainless steel.
Domaine de la Noblaie - the straight domaine Chinon emphasis on the fruit, aged in stainless steel for four months.
La Part des Anges: made from very ripe fruit with some botrytised grapes. Aged in 500-litre barrels for 24 months. Capacity to age for many years.
MonAnge: fruit comes from the beginning of rows. Partial fermentation before bottling then at least 25 months sur latte.

Q: Call parent method from nested child in Vue I scaffolded a project from vue-cli using the webpack template.
Now in the App component I created a bootstrap modal dialog, which I want to reuse from the entire application. Along with that I also created one method in the App component called showMessage which actually does the work of showing the modal.
Now considering that I should be able to reach that method from any component, is calling like what is shown below a bad idea?
this.$root.$children[0].showMessage('Message', `An email will be sent to ${this.form.email}`)

A: That is a fragile way to handle global messaging.
At least register an event on the root component from inside the modal component:
methods: {
  showMessage(message) {
    // your code to display the message
  }
},
created() {
  this.$root.$on('showMessage', this.showMessage)
},
destroyed() {
  this.$root.$off('showMessage', this.showMessage)
}

Then you can use this.$root.$emit('showMessage', 'foo message') to display a message from anywhere within the scope of that root component.

Even better might be to create an event bus:
Vue.prototype.$bus = new Vue();

methods: {
  showMessage(message) {
    // your code to display the message
  }
},
created() {
  this.$bus.$on('showMessage', this.showMessage)
},
destroyed() {
  this.$bus.$off('showMessage', this.showMessage)
}

this.$bus.$emit('showMessage', 'foo message')

This way, you have a slightly better separation of concerns.

Nick Burcher, board member at Zed Media, said Saga's entry into the UK social networking arena was an effective way of connecting with its audience, which was increasingly willing to interact and form communities online, as evidenced by the popularity of Friends Reunited with older users.
Burcher said: "Over the last year there have been a number of moves into this area to tap into the older market online. Saga Zone is part of the company's overall engagement and interaction with its customers, rather than a standalone social networking site for over 50s."
Burcher said that it was unlikely that older users of social network sites would devote the amount of time typical among younger users: "We are not seeing massive usage in these demographics in social networking. However, older users tend to be more loyal and less likely to jump on the next bandwagon, so they are more likely to be sticky and develop loyalty to one site over time.
"Social networking has been dominated by youth-oriented sites such as MySpace, Facebook and Bebo. MySpace is almost deliberately designed to alienate older users and preserve its exclusively young user base."
Making money from social networking was still a challenge faced by even popular sites, Burcher said: "Facebook is still wrestling with how to monetise their traffic, despite their massive user base."

IAEA wants 'permanent presence' at Russia-held nuclear plant

ZAPORIZHZHIA, Ukraine — UN inspectors said Wednesday they would seek to establish a permanent presence at a Russian-held plant in southern Ukraine to avoid "a nuclear accident" at the facility on the frontline of the fighting.اضافة اعلان
The 14-strong team from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) is expected to arrive at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant on Thursday which lies inside Russian-held territory.
"My mission is ... to prevent a nuclear accident and preserve the largest nuclear power plant in Europe," IAEA Director-General Rafael Grossi told reporters after travelling from Kyiv to the city of Zaporizhzhia.
"We are preparing for the real work which begins tomorrow," he said. "We are going to try to establish a permanent presence for the agency."
Fresh shelling struck the town next to Europe's largest atomic facility on Wednesday, with the fate of the plant on the banks of the Dnipro River stoking global concern.
"The Russian army is shelling Energodar," local military official Evhen Yevtushenko said on Wednesday morning, of the town next to the plant which had a pre-war population of 50,000 people.
Both sides have repeatedly traded blame over attacks in the area.
'Explicit safety guarantees'
Although Zaporizhzhia is normally about a two-hour drive from the plant, it was not immediately clear how the IAEA team would reach the site which would involve crossing the frontline to enter Russian-held areas.
But Grossi said his team had received "explicit" safety guarantees from both sides for their visit which would last "a few days".
"These are very complex operations," he said.
"We are going into a war zone, we're going to occupied territory, and this requires explicit guarantees not only from the Russian Federation but also from the Republic of Ukraine and we have been able to secure that."
The plant has been occupied by Russian troops since March and Ukraine has accused Russia of deploying hundreds of soldiers and storing ammunition there.
Kyiv has insisted the team access the plant via Ukrainian-held territory.
"Sadly, Russia is not stopping its provocations precisely in the direction the mission needs to travel to reach the plant," President Volodymyr Zelensky said late Tuesday after meeting Grossi.
The situation was "extremely menacing", he said, accusing the Russians of "continuing bombardments" and calling for "an immediate and total demilitarization" of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant.
In Moscow, the Russian defense ministry accused Kyiv of "continued provocations aimed at disrupting the work of the IAEA mission" saying it had shelled the area around the plant on Tuesday hitting a building containing "the solid radioactive waste processing complex".

Preparation involves sessions that provide necessary formation for the reception of Confirmation.
Adult Faith Formation provides educational opportunities for spiritual growth and enrichment for adults.
Baptismal Preparation conducts classes to prepare parents for the sacrament of welcoming their infant into the community of Jesus Christ. Parents and Godparents are instructed on the meaning of baptism and the obligations attached to it.
Bible Study Groups are small communities of parishioners who explore scripture to enhance their personal understanding of the Word of God through structured format.
Children's Faith Formation is a major parish mission that provides systematic, age appropriate educational opportunities for spiritual growth and enrichment to students, K-5. This ministry also provides the training necessary for First Reconciliation and First Communion.
The Confirmation Preparation Program at St. Joseph guides adolescents into the experience of the fullness of the Holy Spirit through the completion of the sacraments of initiation. By becoming adult Christians in confirmation, the young person is given special strength to bear witness to Jesus Christ through an ever deepening relationship with Him, the fruit of which is service to the parish, church and culture.
RCIA is a gradual process by which the Catholic community welcomes, prepares and initiates new members into the church. It is a year round process and one can inquire at any time. It is designed for those: not baptized, baptized in the Roman Catholic Church and in need of Eucharist and/or Confirmation, and baptized in another Christian Church and in need of further instruction and initiation. For more information call the office at (361) 358-3239.
The RCIA adapted for children is instruction for children between the ages of eight and seventeen, who have had little or no previous faith formation experience. Some are not baptized; others have been baptized in another Christian faith, and are seeking complete initiation in the Catholic Church. Classes begin in the fall and the process for children's initiation usually takes two years. Children who were baptized Catholic but have had little or no formation since baptism may receive instruction and sacramental preparation with this group. After reception of the sacrament, all children continue with instruction at their grade level. If you know of any children or adults who are interested in becoming Catholic, contact the Faith Formation Office for more information or to register.
VBS is held every summer and is open to all Elementary School Children. Here children gather together for scripture, song, games and crafts. We are always in need of teen and adult volunteers to make every VBS a success. This event is advertised in the bulletin in the summer months.
The Edge prepares 6, 7 and 8th grade students for leadership in the parish and community by providing them with spiritual tools through religious education, liturgy, fellowship and outreach.


Home / Business & Investment News / Match Group (MTCH) Surges to Record Highs, What's Next?
Match Group broke to record highs in the past week and several analysts believe there is more upside, here are two of them – Match Group Is Still Undervalued and Wall Street is Falling in Love With Match Stock.
The main focus from a technical perspective is the upside momentum triggered by the recent earnings beat. MTCH climbed above major resistance that is found between $47.00 and $48.65 to trade to record highs. Recall that the stock traded in this resistance area ahead of the steep fall on news of Facebook launching a new dating service at the start of May. In the process of breaking to new highs, a succession of higher highs and lower highs has materialized from the May low. As often seen, the prior resistance area is now considered strong support, suggesting that dips in the stock will be short-lived.
If you agree there's further upside ahead for MTCH, consider this trade which is a bet that the stock will continue to advance over the next five weeks, or at least not decline very much.
This price was $0.02 less than the mid-point of the option spread when MTCH was trading near $51. Unless the stock rallies quickly from here, you should be able to get close to this amount.
Your commission on this trade will only be $2.50 per spread (the rate charged by thinkorswim for Terry's Tips' subscribers). Each contract would then yield $100.50 and your broker would charge a $300 maintenance fee, making your investment $199.50 ($300 – $100.50). If MTCH closes at any price above $50 on September 21, both options would expire worthless, and your return on the spread would be 50% (468% annualized).

Rotten eggs served in Odisha school
By Subadh Nayak Last updated Apr 16, 2021 0
KalingaTV News Network
Nabarangpur: Students of Mundagarh Primary School in Kosagumuda block of the district were served rotten eggs in the Mid-Day Meal (MDM) on Saturday.
The matter came to light when the students informed a local, who happened to visit the school for some reason. The villager brought the matter to the notice of the school authorities, but his words went unheard. Later, the villagers locked the school alleging that the students were being served poor quality food.
"I found many black spots on the eggs. They were stinking very badly. I asked the cook to serve the eggs after tasting. She said she could not do that as foul smell was emitting from them. Then I rang up the Head Master of the school as he was absent. He told me that he would send someone to look into the matter and change the eggs. As no one came, I called the president of the school. However, none of them came to take stock of the situation," alleged the local, who had visited the school.

Disney's Best Five Film Run
The Walt Disney Company has been producing animated features for 80 years now. In that time, the company has released 55 films with a 56th on the way later this year and others in development. I'm only talking about the animated ones, because if you add in live-action and all of the films released by Pixar or under the Marvel or Star Wars banner then you'll easily eclipse 100 films. Disney's bread and butter has been the animated feature though, beginning in 1937 with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Over the years they've had ups and downs and had to keep up with changes in technology and film production techniques. It's a very interesting history, and likely numerous rankings exist around the internet listing out the films in order of best to worst, or vice versa.
For this post, I wanted to do something different. I wanted to look more at the eras of the films produced. At first I thought about just going in 5 year chunks, but that made things unbalanced as Disney has had periods where they churn out a bunch of films and periods where they don't. Instead, I felt it would be more interesting to just divide the films up into groups, and with there being 55 total films as of this writing, it made sense to go with groups of five. These groups seem to work well as they tend to span around 7 or 8 years and result in some fun pairings. At first, I listed them out and then just did a totally subjective ranking. I was fine with the end result, but just for some added fun I added a score to each film on a scale of one to five with five being the best and then ranked them by total score and I ended up with almost the exact same list. Since that ranking felt a little more interesting, I'll keep it and include my totally subjective score for each film as we go along while also linking to any films I may have reviewed here, so let's get to it.
Saludos Amigos (1942)
1942 -1949 – 10 points
Saludos Amigos – 2
Make Mine Music – 2
Fun and Fancy Free – 2
Melody Time – 2
The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr Toad – 2
Well, this isn't surprising. By going with groups of five I inadvertently grouped basically all of the package films together in one grouping. These were the films produced during World Word II when Disney was cut-off from overseas revenue streams on its films. As a result, the company had to settle for cheaper releases. None of these films are particularly good, though each also has its moments which is why they all scored a 2 across the board (you have to be pretty bad to score less than 2, and really great to score a 5 from me). Saludos Amigos is basically a propaganda film aiming to improve opinions of South America as Disney was not opposed to making such crap. At least it has Donald Duck in it though. The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad definitely has its fans too, but I personally don't enjoy that picture very much. Basically anyone doing a ranking like this one is going to start with this quintet.
Lilo & Stitch (2002)
2002 – 2005 – 11.5 Points
Lilo & Stitch – 5
Treasure Planet – 2.5
Brother Bear – 2
Home on the Range – 1
Chicken Little – 1
Also not surprising for Disney fans, this era captures Disney's struggle to stay relevant in the field of 2D animation while also exploring CGi. Treasure Planet is a hybrid picture that at least looks good, but doesn't offer much else. Brother Bear is okay, but feels outdated and like a picture that's struggling to match some of the old Disney classics. The latter two are just plain awful and probably the two worst Disney animated features. Home on the Range has the fun distinction of essentially being the film that killed 2D animation at Disney – thanks! Propping this group up and keeping it from a dismal finish behind even the package film era is Lilo & Stitch, a supremely wonderful picture about two sisters trying to cope and understand each other following the loss of their parents. It basically explores depression in adolescents, but kind of hides it by also injecting the incredibly fun Stitch to the mix and it's also gorgeous to boot. It's really on my short list of the best films put out by Disney.
The Emperor's New Groove (2000)
Tarzan – 3
Fantasia 2000 – 2
Dinosaur – 2
The Emperor's New Groove – 3.5
Atlantis – 2
This era represents the winding down of the New Renaissance era started in the late 1980s. You basically have two perfectly good Disney films in Tarzan and Emperor's New Groove together with two forgettable ones and one sequel that really didn't impress. Emperor's New Groove might be on the studio's most underrated films as it's a really fun story with some great animation. Tarzan is the more popular due to its legendary character and for some reason the Phil Collins soundtrack was really popular. It's one of those films that I think looks better than it is, but it's fine. Dinosaur is pretty bad, it's earnest so I won't drop it to the dismal rankings but it just doesn't work and has aged poorly. Atlantis, like Treasure Planet, is visually interesting and little else. And Fantasia 2000 was about as big a flop as the original. While the original benefits from being unique when it was released, and for containing the iconic Sorceror's Apprentice (re-including that in 2000 doesn't really count for as much) while the 2000 version just looks better and doesn't introduce really anything noteworthy.
The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (1977)
The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh – 3.5
The Rescuers – 3
The Fox and the Hound – 3
The Black Cauldron – 2
The Great Mouse Detective – 3
Commercially, this era of films is looked on rather badly. This is when critics were sounding the bells of doom for Disney wondering if the studio could turn it around. The Black Cauldron was one of the biggest flops the company ever endured, costing a boatload of money to produce while failing to connect with critics and audiences. Because of that status it might be lumped in with a few others as being among Disney's worst, but it's really not that bad. It at least contains a really memorable, and frightening, villain in The Horned King and brings back some of that old scary fairy tale vibe. It has its fans, like noted critic Roger Ebert. As for the rest, they're all pretty good films just none are able to really rise above the cream of the crop. The Pooh shorts collected in The Many Adventures are pretty much considered classics by now while The Great Mouse Detective gets the credit for turning the studio around. It's a fun adventure and one I'm a little surprised didn't get a sequel. The Rescuers will get that honor a few years later, but the first outing for Bernard and Miss Bianca is the superior one. And then there's The Fox and the Hound, a nice little buddy movie that aims big, but doesn't quite deliver as impactful a story as it wants to. It's still a nice little picture though.
2007 – 2011 – 15 Points
Meet the Robinsons – 2
Bolt – 2
The Princess and the Frog – 3.5
Tangled – 4
Winnie the Pooh – 3.5
If this era had a title it would probably be The Great Turn-Around. After bottoming out with the pair of Home on the Range and Chicken Little, Disney really needed to reassert itself as a leading producer of quality animated features. Pixar had eclipsed them and this group of films marks the moment when things finally started to get going in the right direction, though they still needed to take a couple more lumps. It's also, sadly, the last of the 2D animation and marks the full commitment to CG pictures going forward. Meet the Robinsons and Bolt were another duo of clumsily animated CG pictures. Bolt is the better of the two, and I considered going with a 2.5 score, but in the end it's also really not a film I care to watch again. The Princess and the Frog is gorgeous, and Winnie the Pooh is a delightful continuation of The Many Adventures that should please most children. Tangled is the clear star though and it's the first CG film Disney made that is on par with Pixar in terms of visuals and it's also a modern princess film that works. It helped lay what is a new foundation for that sub-genre of films and it kind of gets overlooked because of the success of another princess movie still to come, but I actually prefer it to all of the CG princess tales.
The Lion King – 4
Pocahontas – 2
The Hunchback of Notre Dame – 3
Hercules – 3
Mulan – 3.5
The coasting years. Hot off the success of early 90s films like Aladdin and Beauty and the Beast, Disney settled into a nice groove of pretty films with big songs and good enough stories. The Lion King is probably the studio's last hallmark offering of the 90s. It's a film some might give a higher score, but I think it's definitely not as good as the group of films that preceded it. Meanwhile, the only dud of the group is Pocahontas, a film that has its heart in the right place, but plays too loose with actual history and is hampered by the G rating from telling the story it probably wants. The Hunchback of Notre Dame, on the other hand, found a way to tell a more mature story under the restraints placed upon it by the studio. Hercules is a fun film, nothing more and nothing less, while Mulan is a greater triumph than all but The Lion King. It tells its own Joan of Arc tale through the eyes of a strong, young Chinese woman. I wish it had a little better of a climax, which is the only thing keeping it from being among Disney's best, but at the time it was a much needed film as it took the lead woman out of the damsel in distress role. All of these films follow the broadway format, which was getting tiresome by this stage, but all of them also look and sound fantastic. If we were ranking just by visual fidelity, then this group would probably place near the top.
One Hundred and One Dalmatians (1961)
One Hundred and One Dalmatians – 4.5
The Sword in the Stone – 3
The Jungle Book – 4
The Aristocats – 2
Robin Hood – 2.5
The Xerox era. Finding animation was too costly, Disney turned to a new technique that utilized Xerox to copy cels and thus reduce the load on the animators. The studio basically gives credit to this process for even allowing them to create One Hundred and One Dalmatians as animating all of those puppies the old-fashioned way would have just been too daunting. As a group of films, that gives them a pretty distinct look as the earliest films done this way have a very rough, sketch quality to them. It has its own charm, though I prefer the old days. This is a solid, almost spectacular, grouping though. You have The Sword in the Stone and Robin Hood, both fun little tales that can please a gathering of all ages. And then you have One Hundred and One Dalmatians and The Jungle Book, two pretty big releases for the Disney company. Dalmatians, in particular, is one of the studio's best and it's a fun caper set in a modern setting that doesn't beat you over the head with songs. The Jungle Book is just a good buddy comedy of sorts, and Mowgli is a relatable and sympathetic character throughout while the shadow of Shere Khan adds intrigue along the way. It also features some of the best work of the renowned Sherman Brothers. Lastly, there's The Aristocats. If Dalmatians hadn't come before it I wonder if I'd look upon it more fondly as it basically feels like a retread of that picture, but with cats instead. It has one pretty good song though, so at least there's that.
Lady and the Tramp (1955)
Cinderella – 4
Alice in Wonderland – 2.5
Peter Pan – 3
Lady and the Tramp – 5
Sleeping Beauty – 2.5
Perhaps the most divisive grouping. This is a group of films lots of people grew up with, so they pack a lot of nostalgic value. They're also a bit divisive as well since you have some old-fashioned princess tales where a kind, submissive woman is rescued by a dashing prince. There's the racial imagery in Peter Pan, also not a high point for Disney, and then just the manic atmosphere of Alice in Wonderland that you either like or don't like. As you can tell by my score, I'm among those who do not particularly care for Alice in Wonderland. I think it starts off fine, but then just gets too bogged down in being "wacky" and I struggle to remain invested whenever I watch it. Sleeping Beauty was another huge flop for the studio, but it seems like over time it's become much more beloved. I don't particularly enjoy the very angular features of the characters and the flatness of the visuals, plus the story is kind of the studio's low point as far as making interesting leading women. It's saved by the iconic Maleficent from being truly dreadful. At the other end of the spectrum is Cinderella, which tells the tale of a victim of circumstance who finds a way to be a decent person throughout it all and is rewarded in the end. By itself, it's a nice film and I don't find fault with the film's message. It's only when lumped in with other "princess" movies that it starts to feel problematic. Peter Pan is merely fine. I think it's weak in terms of song and as an adventure it's ho-hum. It's more of a kid's fantasy film, than anything. The best though is Lady and the Tramp, a really fun "dog movie" with interesting characters, a simple but effective premise, and the best visuals of any Disney movie. This one is beautiful and I get a little sad every time I watch it because Disney just doesn't make movies that look like this anymore and maybe never will. It also doesn't feature a ton of songs, which is a plus in my book. I understand those who may find it boring or slow, but for me it's almost perfectly paced and just too visually stimulating for me to lose interest at any point.
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs – 3.5
Pinocchio – 5
Fantasia – 2.5
Dumbo – 3
Bambi – 3
The group that started it all. It's actually tied with the group preceding this one at 17 points a piece. My tiebreaker was simply to pick the best film of the bunch and go with that group, and if you've read my reviews for some of these films then you would know that Pinocchio is my all-time favorite Disney picture. It's a great story that's captivating, warm, scary, suspenseful and is pushed along by wonderful visuals and timeless songs. It's the best example of Disney's old way of creating an animated movie which wasn't as reliant on song-breaks like the films of the late 80s and 90s. Joining Pinocchio is, of course, the one that started it all – Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. I recently reviewed this one in light of the fact that it recently turned 80(!) and it seemed like a good time to revisit it. It's breath-takingly beautiful, even by today's standards, which helps to cover-up a sometimes slow moving plot. It may have scored a half-point for nostalgic reasons now that I think about it, but I'm sticking with the 3.5 since it feels like it should be elevated about the likes of Dumbo and Bambi, which round out this list. Both are adorably sweet films that also have moments of fear and sadness to balance them out. Dumbo is the simpler of the two, while Bambi is the more visually impressive. Fantasia was basically Walt's pet project and something that I think was made to appeal to him first and foremost, which makes it rather interesting. It's not really for me, but I recognize that it has value and The Sorcerer's Apprentice segment is pretty wonderful. It also has the distinction of being one of the only Disney movies to never be aired on free television.
2012 – 2016 (Present) – 18 Points
Wreck-It Ralph – 4
Frozen – 4
Big Hero 6 – 3
Zootopia – 4
Moana – 3
You may think this one is up this high because of recency bias, but let me assure that is not the case. This is the first, and only, grouping of all CG films and it just so happens all of them are pretty damn good. While none managed a 5 rating from me, none also fell below a 3 which is also a first on our list. Let's start with my pick of the worst, which is Big Hero 6. It's a great visual film, but it suffers because it just feels too derivative of other Disney films in its turning points. It also is a victim of being essentially a super hero film and there's certainly some fatigue associated with that genre these days. If you're a younger person who is only familiar with Disney's modern output then it might be more appealing to you since its tragic elements feel less repetitive, but for me it's just okay. Moana is slightly better. It's a pretty solid adventure with a fun pairing between its heroine and Maui, a god, that would probably be better if it was a bit shorter and knocked out a song or two. Zootopia is ambitiously serious and it's a pretty fantastic one-time viewing experience. Its lack of "fun" and reliance on mystery and plot twists cause it to not hold up as well on repeated viewings, but just judged by itself it's actually pretty great. Frozen is the most popular film on this list, though I think it's visually the worst. It had a whole bunch of problems during production, originally starting off as a hand-drawn picture, so it's not really surprising to see it doesn't look its best, but it makes up for it in charm. This is a likable cast that puts a nice twist on the princess formula. I think, musically, it's a bit overrated. Not "Let It Go," that song is fantastic, but other than "Do You Want to Build A Snowman?" I could do without the rest. Wreck-It Ralph is the star for me, and not because it's a video game movie, but because it best combines characters, heart, plot, and visuals into a total package. In looking at my ratings, I'm actually thinking maybe I should bump it up a half-point to separate it from the rest, but I'll stick with what I've got. It's only real failing is that it doesn't really take advantage of the cameos from video games, outside of the therapy session, and it does feel a bit on the long side. Still, a great movie and one I tend to get sucked into whenever it's on television (which is a lot, it seems).
Aladdin (1992)
Oliver & Company – 2
The Little Mermaid – 5
The Rescuers Down Under – 2
Beauty and the Beast – 5
Aladdin – 5
At last, we've come to our top spot and perhaps not surprisingly it captures the peek of Disney's New Renaissance. This is a three-headed monster of films that really changed the game on what an animated feature could deliver, including the first one to be nominated for an Academy Award for best picture. It's also a gauntlet of pictures as each one was released in a different year – five pictures for five years. The amusing part is it also contains two films that are certainly not beloved. Oliver & Company holds some nostalgic value for me because it's the first film I can recall seeing in a movie theater. As such, I probably like it a bit more than the 2 rating I gave it, but I can see it's faults as a film. It does deserve credit for establishing the new format that our big three would adopt. The Rescuers Down Under has the distinction of being the only theatrically released direct sequel of any animated Disney feature, a distinction that will end later this year when the Wreck-It Ralph sequel is released. By itself, it's fine and Bernard and Miss Bianca are actually interesting enough to justify another feature, even if no one was really begging for it. Hardly Disney's worst, but possibly its most forgettable considering the film that preceded it and the ones to follow. This group is defined by the three big ones: The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and Aladdin. Some dislike The Little Mermaid for being another princess tale, with Ariel needing to be rescued from the likes of her father, King Triton, and her love interest Eric – the dashing prince. I see it more as a tale of adolescence with Ariel embodying the personality of many 16 year olds I've come across. She has passion, a rebel spirit, and is perhaps too quick to identify what she wants. Perhaps an ending where she decides that Eric isn't all that great would have turned things on its head and been more interesting, but it's not as if Eric is a bad person. He actually is pretty great, so maybe happily ever after isn't so bad? It's also Disney's best film when judging it strictly on the merits of its soundtrack thanks to the triumvirate of "Under the Sea," "Part of Your World," and "Kiss the Girl." With Beauty and the Beast we're treated to a heroine that's a bit more realistic and willing to take charge of her situation. She sacrifices herself to The Beast to free her father, a noble gesture for sure even though it's not what any father would want for their daughter. The film is hurt slightly by the fact that they need to gloss over the warming-up of The Beast and Belle, but that' what happens with 90 minute features. Lavishly animated and wonderfully scored, it's not a surprise why so many think it's the best the studio has produced to date. And lastly, there's Aladdin – Disney's greatest tale of adventure. It's almost surprising it took the studio this long to tackle the story of Aladdin as it fits in with a lot of the adventure pieces from both the animation department and the live-action one from the decades before, but Aladdin benefits greatly from being made in the 90s because it looks incredible and packs an iconic performance from the late Robin Williams as The Genie. This is a supremely entertaining film that might be my favorite of the bunch, but really on any given day I could make a case for why any of those three are the best.

Police escort coming for mail delivery to apartment complex in Athens, GA
June 1, 2020 July 12, 2019
ATHENS, Ga. (FOX 5 Atlanta) – The United States Postal Service restored mail delivery to an Athens apartment on Thursday. It had been suspended because of concerns regarding crime.
Once service was stopped, workers at Bethel Midtown Village started picking up the mail to sort it. But, that became too much. Those who wanted their deliveries had to go to the main post office to pick it up. That became a problem for some residents.
People who live here say it started about a week before June 25 letter went up noting a "rash of crime."
"An employee of the management in a conversation with the postal carrier described the property as dangerous or challenging and that led the postal carrier to become concerned and back off of delivery for a number of days," said Athens-Clarke County Mayor Kelly Girtz. "I believe it was absolutely overreacting."
The mayor does say a few crimes, including shootings, had been reported at Bethel Midtown Village earlier in the year.
On Thursday, Athens-Clarke County Police escorted the mail carrier to the complex.
"I thought that was just extremely wrong," said Welsh. "The crime is not bad where they have to be escorted with cops to put mail in the mailbox."
Mayor Girtz said the return to service followed talks between his office, the police chief, and the postal service.

Returns a collection of Map Server Find Result objects that contain the given search string. If LayerIDs is Nothing/Null or empty, all layers are searched.
Find performs a search based on a string value. This search can be conducted on a single field of a single layer, on many fields of a single layer or on many fields on many layers. Find returns a collection of objects that implement IMapServerFindResult.
Find requires a number of input parameters. These include: a MapDescription, an ImageDisplay, the search string, a Boolean value on whether the search string is an exact match (False) or not (True), a comma delimited list of string values for the names of the fields you want to search, the esriFindOption, and an array of layer Ids to be searched.
Please note that Find only works with layer and does not work with StandaloneTable. It also does not honor any time setting of a layer.
The MapDescription contains all the LayerDescriptions in the map. These LayerDescriptions include a DefinitionExpression property. A DefinitionExpression can be set on a layer in order to limit layer features available for display or query. This expression can be set in the source map document as a definition query, or can be set using the DefinitionExpression property. The DefinitionExpression set in the LayerDescription will override any any definition query set in the source map. MapServer Find results should honor any definition query or DefinitionExpression set on the layer.
If the searchFields parameter is blank all fields will be searched.
The esriFindOption parameter includes: esriFindAllLayers and esriFindVisibleLayers. If esriFindAllLayers is being used all layers are valid. If esriFindVisibleLayers is used, the search will be conducted only on layers that are visible in the map display. Layer visibility depends on whether the layer is on or off (the Visible property on ILayerDescription3) or whether the layer is on, but not visible due to scale dependencies (the MinScale and MaxScale properties on IMapLayerInfo2). The mapImage parameter is needed to determine whether the layer is not visible based on scale dependencies. This parameter can be Nothing/Null if esriFindAllLayers is used.
The parameters esriFindOption and LayerIDs behave like a boolean AND. There is no precedence. For example: if esriFindOption is esriFindVisibleLayers and pLayerIDs is Nothing/Null or empty, all the visible layers are searched. If esriFindOption is esriFindVisibleLayers and pLayerIDs contains only the first layer, the first layer is searched only if it is visible.
Find always honors field visibility, and by default it respects field aliases and field formatting set in the source map document. If you want to use field names instead of field aliases, set ReturnFieldNamesInResults to True. When you want to have value in original data type (i.e. as Double instead of formatted string) so that you can do some computation (e.g. change the numeric or date to your locale settings), set FormatValuesInResults to False. It is important to note that these properties are only honored when the layer being searched implements IFeatureLayer (e.g. FeatureLayer). If the feature being queried has more than one field with the same alias (e.g. when joined), only one will be passed back to the client and the rest will be dropped from the result.
Geometry is always returned in the same spatial reference system as the DefaultMapDescription, even though the source data of a layer may be in a different coordinate system. The value of the Shape field in the result is a string showing the type of the geometry. To get the geometry associated with the result, use the IMapServerFindResult::FeatureShape property.
In some cases, for performance reasons, you may want limit or adjust the geometry being returned in the find result. Use ILayerResultOptions to manage this. If IncludeGeometry is set to False, FeatureShape returns nothing. This should increase performance in cases where feature geometry is large. When ILayerResultOptions is not used, FeatureShape returns geometry. If the Shape field is invisible in the source map, FeatureShape may still contain geometry depending on how IncludeGeometry is set by the user. You can also choose to densify or generalize the geometry returned in FeatureShape using GeometryResultOptions. Densification is used to better support clients that do not support Arcs (e.g. Bezier, Circular etc.). Generalization reduces the amount of geography being sent across the network and should lead to better performance. If LayerResultOptions are not specified for the LayerDescription, query results will include the original geometry.
There are two key differences between Find and the other query methods such as QueryData, QueryRowIDs, QueryFeatureData etc. The first is that Find can work on multiple layers while the query methods work with a single layer. The second is that Find only works with a search string. The query methods use a queryFilter as a parameter. This allows the query to be based on either an attribute filter (SQL expression) or a spatial filter.
In order to control the amount of information MapServer needs to process for a query, a maximum number of records can be set. This value is contained in the MaxRecordCount property on IMapServerInit2. The default value for this property is 1,000. If 1,100 features match a given query only the first 1,000 results will be returned. You will be unable to access the remaining 100 records. To be able to access these records the MaxRecordCount would need to be increased to 1,100. MaxRecordCount can also be changed by modifying the MaxRecordCount XML tag in the MapServer's configuration file.

The number of victims

Photos and stories from victims and survivors of the Holocaust
Non-Jewish victims
While Jews were the primary victims of Nazism as it evolved and were central to Nazi racial ideology, other groups were victimized as well—some for what they did, some for what they refused to do, and some for what they were.
Political dissidents, trade unionists, and Social Democrats were among the first to be arrested and incarcerated in concentration camps. Under the Weimar government, centuries-old prohibitions against homosexuality had been overlooked, but this tolerance ended violently when the SA (Storm Troopers) began raiding gay bars in 1933. Homosexual intent became just cause for prosecution. The Nazis arrested German and Austrian male homosexuals—there was no systematic persecution of lesbians—and interned them in concentration camps, where they were forced to wear special yellow armbands and later pink triangles. Jehovah's Witnesses were a problem for the Nazis because they refused to swear allegiance to the state, register for the draft, or utter the words "Heil Hitler." As a result, the Nazis imprisoned many of the roughly 20,000 Witnesses in Germany. Germans of African descent—many of whom, called "Rhineland bastards" by the Nazis, were the offspring of German mothers and French colonial African troops who had occupied the Rhineland after World War I—were also persecuted by the Nazis. Although their victimization was less systematic, it included forced sterilization and, often, internment in concentration camps. The Nazis also singled out the Roma (Gypsies). They were the only other group that the Nazis systematically killed in gas chambers alongside the Jews.
In 1939 the Germans initiated the T4 Program—framed euphemistically as a "euthanasia" program—for the murder of intellectually or physically disabled and emotionally disturbed Germans who departed from the Nazi ideal of Aryan supremacy. The Nazis pioneered the use of gas chambers and mass crematoria under this program.
Following the invasion of Poland, German occupation policy especially targeted the Jews but also brutalized non-Jewish Poles. In pursuit of Lebensraum ("living space"), Germany sought systematically to destroy Polish society and nationhood. The Nazis killed Polish priests and politicians, decimated the Polish leadership, and kidnapped the children of the Polish elite, who were raised as "voluntary Aryans" by their new German "parents." Many Poles were also forced to perform hard labor on survival diets, were deprived of property and uprooted, and were interned in concentration camps.
