The Rumoured Affair Involving Prince William is Now Again Trending on Twitter.
By Jeremy Caroll On Jul 29, 2022
Rumors that Prince William is having an extramarital affair and cheating on Kate Middleton have flooded the internet once again.
" "The wife doesn't mind her [the affair partner] and in fact prefers her husband getting his sexual needs fulfilled elsewhere, as long as they don't become emotional, which was the situation with the last woman." Among royal watchers everywhere, the tidbit seems to resonate with the speculation about the Cambridges' marital difficulties following William's rumored affair with Rose Hanbury.
To no one's surprise, this juicy yarn simply served to fuel Twitter's hot topics, "#PrinceWilliamAffair" and "#PrinceofPegging."
No proof has been presented to prove that William had an extramarital affair with Kate, hence these reports were only speculative.
Speculation about Prince William's rumored extramarital relationship. It's critical to keep in mind that the Instagram account is a source of unconfirmed rumors, so proceed with caution when reading the following.

As reported by thetoughtackle, a "British royal's extramarital affair is an open secret in London and among the English aristo set," which they claim is an "open secret in London." At a recent media party, an insider revealed, "I was told that at a recent media party, it was the royal's fondness for pegging that the wife is too old-fashioned to indulge in." The term "pegging" can be found here.) "The wife doesn't mind her [the affair partner] and in fact prefers her husband getting his sexual needs fulfilled elsewhere, as long as they don't become emotional, which was the situation with the last woman." There's a lot of speculation about the Cambridges' marital difficulties after William's supposed affair with Rose Hanbury, and this tip seems to be making the rounds.

To no one's surprise, this juicy yarn simply served to fuel Twitter's hot topics, "#PrinceWilliamAffair" and "#PrinceofPegging." It also stoked the flames of debate among the opposing fan bases (Team Cambridge vs. Team Sussex) about the terrible story. "I don't care if Prince William indulges in adulterous affairs," wrote one supporter of the Sussex Squad.
I don't mind if he enjoys pegging. I am concerned, though, that he and his wife utilized Meghan to divert attention from their own life." There are many who believe that this is a distraction from the recent headlines about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, and that "#princewilliamaffair & Pegging Trending" is a misnomer.

Following Prince William's taunting of his brother, who got it, there is a planned smear operation underway today to take the public's attention away from the fact that he forced taxpayers to pay to attend his court. Many people adore Kate because she is married to such a charming man. #PrinceWilliamIsAKing."
Though Richard Jeter's humorous remark that "The Windsors' next season is going to be lit" and "The Crown's going to have to clock in an NC-17 series" won the Twitter battle, it is possible that he has won the war. In any case, it shows that the royal family may have less safety than they think from rumours when it comes to the supposed extracurricular activities of Prince William. The U.K. media may overlook certain royals, but social media is changing the PR game for everyone.

I spent last week in California, traveling for work. I was lucky enough to be staying in Aptos, on the coast. We saw dolphins swimming by the shore, and the weather was perfect.
I was talking about the surreality of California's climate and the oddly filtered quality of the light there with a new friend, when I suddenly recalled a poem I wrote many years ago on the exact subject, right after moving to California to go to law school and finding the adjustment from the East Coast a bit more than I expected.
So here you are, a displacement poem. Let's say it's to note the pleasure of making a new friend, of the kind that instantly leads to candid, vulnerable conversation.

I've lost some paper that explained all this to me — when and why to tilt my head, bring a sweater or wear shorts.

Politics Makes Strange Bedfellows Indeed
No, that is not a picture of the cute balloon animal from my granddaughter's recent birthday party. It's an ethanol molecule. Ethanol is one of the most heavily-subsidized green weenie alternate fuels beloved by the federal government and farmers. In fact, in 2010, the bill for subsidizing ethanol (ethyl alcohol derived from corn) was $6 billion.
Like most alternatives for oil-drilling, natural gas drilling, and clean-coal development, ethanol is one of those "green" remedies that's as bad as or worse than the fuels that environmentalists hate so much. In fact, the only provable green parts of the ethanol boom are the greenbacks being used to support it and the massive algae blooms in the Gulf of Mexico resulting from byproduct runoff being floated down the Mississippi River.
Every head of corn used to make ethanol is one head less which could be used as food. What has been an abundant and inexpensive food source for the poor people Barack Obama claims to love so much is now becoming scarcer and therefore more expensive. That's called "the market" principle of supply and demand--something of which the socialists are entirely unaware. Farmers who are receiving the subsidies are not at all concerned that farmers who do not receive the subsidies are paying higher prices for corn-based animal feed. That also drives up food prices.
So who are the strange bedfellows? California Senator Dianne Feinstein (liberal Democrat) and Oklahoma Senator Tom Coburn (moderate/conservative Republican) have joined Tea Party activists attempting to end the $6 billion annual ethanol subsidies. This puts them on the side opposing the ethanol lobby, farm welfare pimps, major segments of the no-oil ecofreaks, and anti-tax bigwig Grover Norquist. Feinstein and Coburn issued a joint announcement in which they declared subsidies for ethanol and oil to be counterproductive. As for ethanol alone, they said: "Ethanol is the only industry that benefits from a triple crown of government intervention. Its use is mandated by law, it is protected by subsidies on domestic production and tariffs on foreign production, and companies are paid by the federal government to use it."
Speaking of the subsidies and tariffs on both ethanol and oil, they said "the subsidies are no longer affordable and the tariffs actually increase gasoline prices because it's cheaper to import oil than to import ethanol." That also runs counter to a recent statement by Barack Obama who praised Brazil for both its oil and ethanol production (he has actively squelched the former within the US). Said The One to the Brazilians: "You are eager to produce petroleum products, and we are eager to buy them." Speak for yourself, Mr. President. "We" want to see American drilling platforms in the Gulf that are twice the size and capability of the Brazilian platforms you are praising.
Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice government interference in the market. It's getting harder and harder to figure out who is on which side. Norquist, president of Americans for Tax Reform, says that Coburn is breaking his pledge to halt tax increases because ending the ethanol subsidies would amount to a tax increase for corn growers. Well, Grover, that's not only a debatable point, but it wouldn't be an increase for farmers who are growing corn for food. In fact, it would boost production and net income for them, thus resulting in increased revenue for the government (Laffer Curve, anyone?).
Feinstein is caught in another dilemma which Coburn doesn't face. California (not Iowa, not Illinois, not Kansas, not Nebraska) had long been the largest corn-producing state in the nation. But the cornfields of the Central California Valley largely produce dust these days as a result of enviro-freak protection of a useless little fish and an attendant government-created drought.
Feinstein must be living in a terrible world of self-conflict. She is opposing subsidies to an agricultural entity that her beloved EPA is killing off in California anyway. She is denying pork to an industry that used to bring immense revenue to California and to the United States at large. And speaking of pork, hog production in California is also way down because of a lack of water to slake their thirst and corn to feed them. I'm getting a headache just thinking of all those self-contradicting concepts.
Coburn did not take Norquist's claim lying down. He fired back with: "The ethanol subsidy is nothing more than corporate welfare not-so-cleverly disguised as a tax 'break' that, in the real world, has the impact of a tax increase because other taxes have to be raised to pay for it." The Tea Party subsidy opponents seem to feel that all the talk of taxes is valuable, but there is a much more basic issue involved. Said one writer on the Tea Party website: "Why should we as taxpayers pay to make our road fuel more corrosive and less energy dense? And making fuel out of food is retarded, even for politicians (emphasis added)."
You may be surprised to realize that corn, previously 100% food, is now 60% food and 40% fuel. It doesn't take a mathematical genius to figure out that this really means a substantial decrease in the availability of a cheap and abundant food source. Joining Feinstein and Coburn are Greenpeace (over the algae blooms) and the Grocery Manufacturers Association (over the food issue, obviously). 90 other large and influential organizations from every point on the political spectrum have formed a political coalition to fight the subsidies.
The one organization that isn't facing reality is, of course, the EPA. The EPA has now stepped into the unelected bureaucracy role of greenhouse gas regulator after the green weenies failed to enact "appropriate" legislation in Congress. But just how "green" is the EPA really? Says reporter Carolyn Lockhead, environmental writer for the San Francisco Chronicle (yes, that Chronicle): "Because fossil fuels are used both to grow corn and to refine it into ethanol, and because ethanol does not yield as much energy per gallon as gasoline, various studies have shown that ethanol does not save much energy overall, and may increase greenhouse gas emissions (emphasis added).

"...various studies have shown that ethanol does not save much energy overall, and may increase greenhouse gas emissions (emphasis added)."
there is rarely anything as delightful in politics as a liberal view getting smacked in the head by itself! (schadenfreude strikes again!)
what shmoes...
Patti: And I get the additional schadenfreude for it coming from San Francisco. LOL
real life is real hard for some folks...
rlaWTX: And dealing with real life is particularly hard for politicians who haven't lived a real life in years.
Yeah, this is strange issue because of the desire of so many to keep the subsidy alive and then the strange position of Norquist to oppose this as a tax cut.
I talked about this issue and the fight between Norquist and Coburn here: Conservatives Split On Taxes. Norquist is wrong.
Andrew: Norquist can't have it both ways, and he's wrong on this one. The point of this article was to draw attention to the fact that people of all stripes are beginning to catch on, not just conservatives.
Ethanol is really a poor choice as a fuel. It has 34 percent less energy than gasoline for one. It has a higher vaporization pressure for two(results in hard to start in cold weather). It requires six gallons of petroleum to produce ten gallons of ethanol which generates less energy than the six gallons of petroleum fuel.
Non of the facts support the use of ethanol as a motor fuel.
Why is it that poor results are embraced with such passion?
Does or government really believe that by doing the same thing over and over will result in a different result because they want it to?
Pseudo science seems to be the only science our government people believe in. It must be a lawyer thing.
Tehachapi Tom: I think that's the reason liberal Feinstein finally had to join Coburn reluctantly. Unlike Boxer, Feinstein can occasionally tell which way the wind blows. She reads the Chronicle and unlike Boxer, she has an election coming up in 2012.
Lawhawk this is a fine example, once they enact a program in Washington it almost never gets eliminated, this is why Barrycare had to be enacted right then, and there. This is a habit we must break, dumba$$ ethanol subsidies would be a great place to start.
Stan: So true. Government agencies designed to address a particular problem take on an independent life of their own, and government programs become perpetual drains on the American people. It's time to bring out the torches, stakes, and gravediggers shovels.

CEO Bellemare explained the aerospace giant would continue assembling this aircraft in Downsview for the next few years and then they'd have to see.
MONTREAL — Bombardier Inc. says it plans to remain in the regional aircraft business but won't guarantee that assembly of its Q400 turboprop will remain in Toronto after selling its Downsview property for $816 million.
The transportation company said Thursday it signed a deal to sell the Toronto property to the Public Sector Pension Investment Board.
Under a lease agreement, the company will continue to operate from Downsview for up to three years following the closing of the deal, with two optional one-year extension periods.
"We are going to continue assembling this aircraft in Downsview for the next few years and then we'll see," president and CEO Alain Bellemare told reporters after the company's annual meeting.
Bombardier also signed an agreement with the Greater Toronto Airports Authority for a long-term lease of a property at Toronto Pearson International Airport where it plans a new final assembly plant for up to 100 Global business jets a year.
Fred Cromer, the new head of regional aircraft, said there's a growing market for Q400s and regional jets to feed traffic to larger planes and replace older aircraft.
"I think the C Series has gotten a lot of attention over the last several years but behind the scenes we have been advancing the Q400, we have been building the backlog and we have shown a lot of success," he added.
Bombardier says it signed a contract with American Airlines for 15 of these CRJ900 commercial aircraft, with options for 15 more planes.
The firm order is valued at about US$719 million based on list prices, although airlines typically receive large discounts. Deliveries are expected to start in the second quarter of 2019.
Bellemare said the Downsview property is the company's largest piece of surplus land. Located in the core of Toronto, only 10 per cent of the 148-hectare site is used and the company has to pay the entire cost of operating a runway.
The $816 million (US$635 million) sale gives the company a positive cash impact of more than US$550 million, he said.
"We are excited to be given the opportunity to invest in this community and we look forward to listening to and collaborating with all stakeholders in Toronto, Ontario and Canada," said Kristopher Wojtecki, Managing Director, Real Estate, PSP Investments.
Together with its recent equity offering, Bombardier will obtain about US$1 billion in cash to give it the ability to complete its five-year turnaround plan, accelerate its debt reduction and invest in its future programs, Bellemare told analysts during a conference call.
Shareholders applauded the company's efforts to improve its financial position, but one investor challenged management about the inequity of executives receiving large compensation when the dividend has been suspended since 2015.
Bombardier chairman Pierre Beaudoin said it will be several years before the board considers a dividend, focusing instead on reducing the company's hefty debt.
Beaudoin also defended the payouts saying they are needed to attract the best talent.
Bellemare received US$10.6 million in compensation last year. Payouts for Bombardier's five most senior executives jumped 12 per cent in one year to a total of about US$31 million. Beaudoin received US$2.6 million.
Bombardier also said it has received nearly all regulatory approvals for the announced partnership with Airbus for the C Series aircraft program. Completion of the transaction is expected before the end of the second quarter, ahead of schedule.
The company delivered five C Series during the quarter, raising the number of planes in service to 31. It continues to expect delivering 40 planes this year.
Bombardier, which reports in U.S. dollars, also said it earned $44 million or a penny per share on $4.03 billion in revenue in the quarter ended March 31. That compared with a profit of US$6 million or zero cents per share on US$3.61 billion in revenue a year ago.
On an adjusted basis, Bombardier said it earned $35 million or a penny per share in the quarter compared with an adjusted profit of $38 million or a penny per share a year ago.


Speaker of the House Paul Ryan, R-Wis., confers with House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., during a news conference on Capitol Hill on Wednesday.
Despite those efforts, two Republicans — Rep. John Katko of New York and Dave Trott of Michigan — signed on to the petition in a move that highlighted both the weakening political muscle of a lame duck speaker, and just how eager a growing number of rank-and-file Republicans are to have an immigration debate.
GOP leaders' immigration problems are compounded by a competing bloc of conservatives that are threatening passage of the farm bill this week unless they extract concessions to vote on a hard-line immigration bill popular among the party's base.
The discharge petition is a little used and rarely successful legislative gambit in which lawmakers can force a vote in the House if they get 218 signatures. Last week, GOP Rep. Carlos Curbelo of Florida introduced a discharge petition that, if successful, would trigger votes on four competing immigration measures that run the ideological spectrum from bipartisan to hard-line immigration proposals.
Curbelo is one of the House GOP's most vulnerable incumbents, running for re-election in a district carried by Democrat Hillary Clinton in the 2016 White House race. He supports bipartisan efforts on immigration that would include a path to citizenship for certain people, and he has been a harsh critic of President Trump's hard-line immigration stances and rhetoric.
The maneuver is challenging Ryan and McCarthy's leadership. The two met privately with President Trump this week at the White House in an effort to come up with a unified strategy for a path forward on immigration that doesn't expose the sharp divides within the GOP on the issue.
However, it's not clear the White House shares their concerns. President Trump and senior administration officials including chief of staff John Kelly have never let up on their frustration with congressional inaction on immigration. The prospect of a forced showdown on the House floor may not be as unappealing on the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue.
The president has not weighed in on the discharge petition, but White House press secretary Sarah Sanders was given an opportunity to give the speaker some rhetorical back up on Thursday when asked if the president supports the petition, and she did not echo Ryan's argument.
The immigration pressure in the House is not coming just from moderates and Democrats. Many conservatives, including those in the House Freedom Caucus, likewise want to have an immigration debate too, but they're approaching it from a different negotiating tactic that is also squeezing GOP leaders.
A bloc of conservatives, including Rep. Mark Meadows, R-N.C., are threatening to hold up passage of a farm bill if they don't extract an agreement to vote on conservative immigration legislation by Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte, R-Va. His proposal is opposed by Democrats and would require passage on the strength of GOP votes alone — a level of support that GOP leaders insist the Goodlatte bill does not have on the House floor.
The competing pressure from the moderate and conservative wings alike is fueling expectations that the House will have to take some kind of action on immigration, whether GOP leaders like it or not. Pelosi told reporters Ryan would be better served by allowing votes on legislation outlined in the discharge petition. "The speaker should maintain control of the floor by just bringing the bill up," she said.
Discharge petitions are governed by a set of procedural rules that dictate that after 218 signatures are reached, a mandatory seven-legislative-day layover must occur and then a vote can only happen on the second or fourth Monday of the month. If so, the House could find itself in an immigration debate with no clear endgame in the thick of primary season and a midterm election year in which the GOP majority is at stake — exactly the scenario Ryan is trying to avoid.

Technology entrepreneurs often have great ideas, but are short of a critical resource: the money to bring their product or service to market.
Creating a business that can grow organically or taking an existing small business to the next level is expensive.
But unless you're taking straight debt financing, from a bank, for example, there's more to a business partnership than just money. But how does a startup find potential partners? And how do they know they're the right fit?
Tech startups get funding boost from Ontario govt.
Often, the initial funding for a startup comes from friends and family – "love money," as Scott MacCannell, president and director of York Angel Investors Inc., calls it.
"Angel investment is really what gets these early companies going," MacCannell says. The next step up the ladder is the angel investment group — experienced angel investors who apply a lot of criteria to potential investments, using their collective wisdom to determine whether risk of a business with a good upside can be managed, MacCannell says.
Tough economic times are giving angel investment a higher profile, as venture capital companies tighten purse strings and angel groups fill the void in the lower end of that market. But still, "this whole angel business is unknown to many people," MacCannell says.
And they can be difficult to find.
Individual angel investors don't tend to advertize, though the groups can be located on the Internet. And the National Angel Capital Organization organizes national and regional conferences, where pre-screened entrepreneurs get a chance to present to representatives of angel groups.
Now you've connected with potential partners. How do you get the right fit?
Have options. You don't want to be in a position where you have to do a deal; you want to be in a position where you want to do a deal, says Bill Snider, chief financial officer of Blue Cat Networks. The Toronto-based Internet protocol address management (IPAM) company has been through two rounds of financing since its self-financed launch in 2001.
For BlueCat's 2006 and 2009 rounds of financing, the company had a proven product, proven market and proven organic growth. But there are other ways to create that position of strength.
"You have to believe in your ability to succeed," says Snider. Back that up with a complete, fleshed-out strategic plan, not just cash-flow projections. Who are you hiring? When and why? Does that match up with your spending projections?
Often, revenue projections and market share estimates are too aggressive, says Kashif Hassan, a serial entrepreneur who's been on both sides of the negotiation table.
And on the flipside, entrepreneurs often underestimate the costs of bringing a product to market, he says.
"It's not just about technology," Hassan says.
Your package should reflect an understanding of the customer and the pain point you're solving, the size of the market, and the competition for your customer's dollar.
Angels are looking for "disruptive technologies, something that's really a breakthrough," says MacCannell. They're also looking for intellectual property (IP) that is patented or has patents pending, and to make sure ownership of that IP is owned in-house – it can act as security for the investment if the business doesn't pan out.
Throughout the negotiation process, "if you're an individual who needs to win on every point of the deal, you won't get much done," says Snider. Know which elements of the deal are critical, and which are simply nice-to-haves.
"Pick your battles," says Hassan, who founded Wysdom Technologies Inc. and now serves as chairman and CEO of Ooober Inc., a mobile software company. The biggest friction point will probably be valuation; entrepreneurs have to be flexible. Make sure one side doesn't dominate the board seats, and that your rights to the business when it comes time to sell are clearly spelled out.
Interestingly, Bridgescale didn't offer the highest valuation for its stake in BlueCat.
It's important to approach partners that can add value to the company, Snider says. Bridgescale, for example, introduced BlueCat to some key strategic hires from its worldwide network of contacts.
"There's the know-how and the know-who," as MacCannell puts it.
When negotiating the 2009 financing deal with Bridgescale Partners, "it was just as much us interviewing them as them interviewing us," Snider says. Talk to other companies and ask what doors your potential partner opened for them. Test-drive the Rolodex. Can they get you into deals you couldn't yourself? "Prove their network," Snider says.
"It's key throughout the process to be open and honest," says Snider. Trying to cover up the warts can backfire. An eleventh-hour discovery that you've tried to hide a flaw can kill the deal.
Be honest about the challenges; investors don't expect you to have all the answers. "The more they know about the business, the more they can help it," Hassan says.

Q: Migrate select2 from 3 to 4 I'm migrating the select2 component from 3.4.5 to 4.0.13 (to solve this issue: https://snyk.io/test/npm/select2/3.4.5) but I've a lot of wrapped code around it and I'm having a lot of problems upgrading.
I've a sandbox and I found the first problems there:

*

*If I use a "div" to create the component (as in my application), the (obsolete) callback "initSelection" works as I need, but then I've no way to get the selected values from the component. And I think that is the problem because the elements of the "initSelection" are shown but not "set".

var sourceData = [
            {id:"1",text:"Hello!"}, {id:"2",text:"Welcome!"}, {id:"3",text:"Good bye!"}, {id:"3",text:"Good night!"}
        ];

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('.mpm-select').select2({
        data: sourceData,
        multiple: true,
        initSelection: function (element, callback) {
            var data = sourceData;
            $(element.val()).each(function () {
                data.push({id: this, text: this});
            });
            callback(data);
        },

    });
});
.mpm-select {
  width: 100%;
}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/select2/4.0.9/css/select2.min.css" integrity="sha512-nMNlpuaDPrqlEls3IX/Q56H36qvBASwb3ipuo3MxeWbsQB1881ox0cRv7UPTgBlriqoynt35KjEwgGUeUXIPnw==" crossorigin="anonymous" referrerpolicy="no-referrer" />

*

*If I use a "input" to create the component (it will requires some changes on my application), "initSelection" callback is not triggered on creation, but I can use the jQuery element to call val() function.

var sourceData = [
            {id:"1",text:"Hello!"}, {id:"2",text:"Welcome!"}, {id:"3",text:"Good bye!"}, {id:"3",text:"Good night!"}
        ];

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('.mpm-select').select2({
        data: sourceData,
        multiple: true,
        initSelection: function (element, callback) {
            var data = sourceData;
            $(element.val()).each(function () {
                data.push({id: this, text: this});
            });
            callback(data);
        },

    });
});
.mpm-select {
  width: 100%;
}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/select2/4.0.9/css/select2.min.css" integrity="sha512-nMNlpuaDPrqlEls3IX/Q56H36qvBASwb3ipuo3MxeWbsQB1881ox0cRv7UPTgBlriqoynt35KjEwgGUeUXIPnw==" crossorigin="anonymous" referrerpolicy="no-referrer" />

<input class="mpm-select">

How I can get the values of the select2 element when it's a "div" or how can I force to trigger "initSelection" callback when it's an "input"?

Freetrade completes $15m funding
Viktor Nebehaj
We're excited to share that we've concluded $15m in fundraising in 2019.
We're excited to share that we've concluded $15m in fundraising in 2019, led by a $7.5m Series A investment from one of Europe's top tech-focused VC funds, Draper Esprit, pending FCA approval.
This follows the previous record-breaking $7.5m crowdfunding campaigns earlier this year.
The funds will enable us to accelerate our already rapid growth, hire a world-class team, double down on engineering hires and market expansion. By scaling the team, we'll be able to dramatically improve the brokerage space and consumer experience in Europe, where we'll expand early next year. 🇪🇺
Speaking about the round, our CEO and founder Adam Dodds said:
"This marks a pivotal moment for us as we continue to build a smooth and cost-effective investing app in the UK and Europe. We're thrilled to have Draper Esprit, a VC firm with similar values and who's committed to enabling everyone to get a slice of the companies of tomorrow, join us on this journey. From the beginning, we've been focused on making Freetrade the home screen app for investing. With this investment, we'll be able to level up our team and further develop our proprietary technology that will enable us to launch our new investment platform, providing users with the option to purchase not only US but UK and European fractional shares — a world first!"
Simon Cook, Chief Executive Officer of Draper Esprit, said:
"Freetrade are on a mission to open up investment opportunities for everyone, as are we. In this sense, their mission is totally aligned with our own, as a rare tech-focused VC listed on the stock exchange. The company have shown exceptional growth in the short time since they first launched the platform last year. We could not be more delighted to support with Adam, Viktor, Ian and their wider team as they enable Europe's 100 million millennials to benefit from the world's economic growth."
In the meantime, if you have any questions you can head to the community thread where you'll also find links to media coverage of the story, including the exclusive story on TechCrunch.
And as you'd guess based on the above, we're hiring. Check out our latest opportunities if you'd like to join the team!
Special thanks to all our customers, shareholders, and community members that made this amazing milestone happen.

Members of the Hart district governing board spared little time in tabbing "Castaic High School" as the name for the district's new school in Romero Canyon, but only after a discussion on how exactly to pronounce it.
But regardless of the pronunciation, Wednesday night's unanimous vote is another step forward in the district's years-long effort to open a high school in Castaic.
Members of the William S. Hart Union High School District board chose the name out of a list of seven recommendations submitted by an advisory committee that was assembled to take into account public input on the naming process.
The other names on that list were Castaic Lake High School, Castaic Hills High School, Ramona High School, Kashtuk High School, Romero Canyon High School and Lakeview High School.
"From the school site, will we be able to see the lake?" he asked.
The school is scheduled to open for the 2016-2017 school year to an inaugural class of 300 ninth graders, according to district spokeswoman Gail Pinsker.

Four common mistakes in audio development
By Michael Tyson | Published: June 11, 2016
This is a discussion of four common mistakes that audio developers make, how to do better, and how to detect whether there's a problem. It's written primarily for developers, but should be accessible to non-developers too. I introduce Realtime Watchdog, a diagnostic tool for developers, and provide a brief survey of popular audio libraries.
Making audio apps is enormous fun — it's rewarding, there's huge scope for creativity, and then when you're done, other people use it to be creative too! There aren't many fields that are like that, and I consider myself very fortunate to be able to work in this area.
But there's also a serious side to working with audio. As audio developers we have a responsibility to our users to, basically, not embarrass them in public. A DJ whose equipment emits an ear-piercing crunch mid set will not thank us (well, it depends on the club. Maybe they will?). Nor will a performer whose backing drum machine clicks and crunches distractingly, throwing the performance. Same goes for in private — if the user just nailed a take, only to discover that there's a giant click in the middle of the recording, they're going to be cursing our name.
Now we're living in a post-Audiobus/IAA world, where our users' setups often span multiple apps, one bad actor can mess everything up, and it's often impossible to tell from where the problem originates.
Imagine if Loopy HD had glitched in the middle of that?
The audio engineer on The Tonight Show told me the main reason that they chose Loopy for the segment above was because he had been a Loopy user for years, and it has always been solid and reliable.
Even if there's just a one-in-ten-thousand chance that an app will glitch during a typical session, well, that's one glitch a day if your app sees ten thousand sessions per day, which is not uncommon. Two glitches a day if it has twenty thousand sessions a day. And I'll bet most music apps have a higher glitch rate than that.
It can take just one glitch during a live performance for a musician to completely lose faith in their whole setup. The one thing they cannot troubleshoot in their setup is their apps, because it's an opaque system. And so every app they're using is indicted. They'll stop using all of them. It's an angry Facebook post to all of their musician friends waiting to happen; the exact opposite of what anyone reading this would want.
So, it's this duty of care that we audio developers have that I want to focus on in this article, because our music apps have to be solid and reliable. All of the time. Read More »

Thirteen Months of Audiobus: Part 2
This is the long awaited sequel to the tale of Audiobus' development. I'm completing this article now, on the day we say an emotional farewell to our motorhome Nettle, who has today been sold to a new family in the UK. It seems like a fitting time to tie off some loose ends as we start the next chapter of our lives in our new home in Australia.
In Part 1 of this article, I wrote about the early stages of the technology which was to become Audiobus, our inter-app audio platform, now supported by over 500 great music apps. Part 1 ended just as Sebastian had one of his genius moments, which I obnoxiously left as a cliffhanger. So, onwards:
It was winter in the south of France, and I was buried in the best kind of work: A new project, and one that brought together a bunch of different interests into a challenging, exciting heap.
But first, it was time to move on and find a more satisfying place to spend the rest of the winter.

Help! iOS 7 broke my microphone input!
By Michael Tyson | Published: October 23, 2013
We hear a lot about people having problems with their music apps on iOS 7 no longer receiving audio. I thought it was time I posted an article describing why this is happening, and how to fix it.
iOS 7 introduced a bunch of new security and privacy features and restrictions. In particular, when an app wants to record audio, iOS 7 will block the app from doing so until the user gives permission. Usually this happens via an alert dialog in the app:
However, if one taps "Don't Allow", the system won't ask again — ever. That can spell confusion and frustration (and support emails, and 1-star App Store reviews!) for users who tapped the dialog away without reading it, and then discovered they're unable to record audio.
Alas, there's not much that can be done about that from our end, except for explaining how to fix the issue once this happens.
The trick is to open Privacy Settings for the device, and enable Microphone access for the app. The controls can be found in the system Settings app:
Once you've turned this on, the app should begin receiving audio. Depending on certain factors, you may need to quit and restart the app.

The Amazing Audio Engine is here, and it's open source and Audiobus-ready
By Michael Tyson | Published: March 19, 2013
I'm very pleased to announce that The Amazing Audio Engine has pulled into the station. It's been a long time in the making, and there have been one or two minor distractions along the way, but I'm proud of the result:
A sophisticated and feature-packed but very developer-friendly audio engine, bringing you the very best iOS audio has to offer. We're talking audio units, block or object-based creation and processing, filter chains, recording and monitoring anything, multichannel input support, brilliant lock-free synchronization and rich Audiobus support.
You'll find The Engine, a bunch of documentation and the brand-new community forum at theamazingaudioengine.com
It's also open source. And it's ready for Audiobus.
Thirteen Months of Audiobus
By Michael Tyson | Published: December 9, 2012
Tomorrow, Monday December 10, my friend and partner-in-crime Sebastian Dittmann and I are launching a project over twelve months in the making: Audiobus. We're very proud of what we've managed to do, and we both firmly believe that Audiobus is going to fundamentally alter the way people create music on the iPad and iPhone.
You can find out more about Audiobus itself at audiob.us, but I wanted to take a moment to breathe, look back, and explain why the hell I've been so quiet over the last year. Read More »
The Amazing Audio Engine: Funky Remote IO-based Core Audio Engine Coming Soon
Huzzah! I'm announcing a new project which will be launching over the next couple of months.
It's called The Amazing Audio Engine, and it represents the product of years of experience with iOS audio. It's a sophisticated iOS audio engine that lets developers skip the Core Audio learning curve, and get on with writing great software.
The tech behind this is what drives Loopy and Loopy HD, as well as the in-development Audiobus app.
Subscribe at theamazingaudioengine.com to be kept in the loop as it approaches launch time.
Some of the features:
Automatic mixing of multiple audio signals with per-channel volume and pan controls.
Built-in support for audio filtering and effects, including the ability to form complex filter chains, constructing channel groups, or even whole trees of groups, and filtering them as one composite signal.
Built-in support for audio input, including optional use of the Voice Processing IO unit, for automatic echo removal – great for VoIP.
Record or monitor the output of the whole audio system, for in-app session recording, or get the output of one channel, or any group of channels in the processing tree.
Support for any audio format (AudioStreamBasicDescription) that the hardware supports: Interleaved, non-interleaved, mono, stereo, 44.1kHz or any other supported sample rate, 16-bit, 8.24 fixed floating-point – whatever you need for your project.
Very light, efficient engine, designed from the ground up for speed. All Core Audio code is pure C; no Objective- C or BSD calls, no locks, no memory allocation.
Efficient mixing of input signals, using Apple's MultiChannelMixer.
Fast, lock-free synchronisation mechanism, enabling developers to send messages to the main thread from the Core Audio context, and vice versa, without locking or memory allocation from the Core Audio thread. Message sending from the main thread is two-way, and can be asynchronous, with a response block, or synchronous.

County Commissioners discussed budgetary issues such as raising wages for Sheriff's Office employees and requesting approval for an Inmate Health Care Services contract for the Otero County Detention Center at their budget work session Monday morning.
Commissioners are working to approve an interim budget for the 2015/2016 fiscal year ahead of a deadline by which the county must submit their interim budget to the state. After Monday's meeting, the estimate for the amount of unrestricted cash carrying over was at $2.7 million according to County Finance Director Donna Brandon.
Commissioner Susan Flores said what the Commission is doing right now is checking to see if they have funds to go into the next fiscal year as this year ends June 30.
"Today's meeting is to find out how we can make this a better budget and what we can do. We're trying to get our interim budget done so we can send it to Santa Fe so that they can see that we have the funds for the next fiscal year. We try and give them the numbers and go through everything and see where we're at," Flores said. "What will happen is when our interim is done, we'll send it to Santa Fe and they'll have to approve it, but this isn't a final budget. We're getting their approval so we can move into July 1."
She said if the budget is not set they cannot do any spending.
"If we don't have our budget set for them then we can't do any spending, so this will give us approval and once they approve it at the end of June we'll close out all our current books and we'll see exactly what we have," Flores said. "Then when we come back in the next month or two, we'll know if we can raise wages because we'll know our exact figures."
Flores said the unrestricted cash of $2.7 million can still go up once they have accurate numbers.
"What may happen is some of the departments may have not used all their money from this year, so that number can go up because they can't overspent their budget," Flores said. "Once everybody is paid and the bills are done we'll have more accurate numbers to prove a final budget."
Flores also said that the final budget being finalized will depend on when they get the books closed, they have to start July 1 with a zero balance.
"That's what a budget is, we are predicting how much money is coming in and predicting how much we'll have to spend," Flores said.
Chairman Ronny Rardin said a major budgetary issue is raising wages for the Sheriff's Office employees. He told Otero County Sheriff Benny House that he would like to raise salaries but the budget is too tight to spend anymore funds.
"The Sheriff's Office has to realize that they've reached the level, in my opinion, that they have passed the budget. We can't maintain it," Rardin said. "We want to raise wages but to do that you're going to have to reduce your force, make it stay on a level playing field."
The county might save money for raises by reducing the number of deputies providing security at the Otero County Courthouse and possibly hiring a private security contractor to provide that service. Commissioner Flores expressed an interest in exploring the idea further.
"I think the Sheriff's Department is a big issue when it comes to salaries. Our sheriff's deputies are underpaid and we continually have to re-hire and re-train. We need to put a stop to that and work on that in the next couple of months on how we can do that and to make their salaries go up to make sure we don't lose them to other counties," Flores said. "We'll see what happens at the end of this year and make sure we have extra monies. I want to give not only the sheriff's department a raise but all the employees a raise this year because they haven't had one in a couple of years."
Commissioners passed a request for approval of an Inmate Health Care Services contract for the detention center to Southwest Correctional Medical Group for the amount of $1,078,380.00. It's a one year contract with the option to renew the contract for an additional three years, but not to exceed a total of four years.
"This will now show that we're making efforts to alleviate mental health issues and lawsuits," Rardin said.
Commissioners also passed a request for approval of making year end budget adjustments totaling $400,000 to the Detention Fund to include a cash transfer from the Emergency Reserve Fund, 2-1, as well as a new 50 foot wide easement for Bridal Road and to vacate the current easement, which runs next to the current roads location 3-0.
Commissioners will continue discussing and adjusting the budget in a upcoming meeting which will depend on when the budget book is closed.

Hello and very warm welcome to you all !
Firstly, I would like to thank you for taking time out of your day to read my blog / page. How are you? How are you feeling ? Are you happy ? all questions I wish I was asked during my week that I'm sure you wish your were asked too. I direct these questions to you fellow readers, with a genuine concern for you all, in this cold, uncaring and callous world, in which there seems to be a huge lack of care for people.
The reason I have made this post is to connect with like-minded people,thinkers, like myself. Yes I'm unhappy, lost and fearful, but never defeated !
Most of my existence I have felt voiceless, plagued with anxiety, wishing deep down I had voiced my opinion, but instead sitting silent allowing the dominant to express their feelings freely, views I simply do.not.agree.with. I'm sure you have been In a similar situation, in the work place, at home, school the list is endless.
I just want to share some of my life experiences and try to make sense of the downright senseless !

Q: Как анимировать пунктирную линию (SVG) Есть готовый файл, сохраненный в SVG.
Задача следующая, при наведение сделать его анимированным.
Суть анимации: рисования элемента от начала до конца.
Я полазил по интернету и нашел подходящий пример анимации:
$(document).ready(function() {

  var canvas = Snap('.main-svg');
  var speed = 1000;
  var line_clients = canvas.path('M349.333,397.333c0,0,46,42.667,146-2.333 c17.917-8.063,79.666-31,87.333,65');
  line_clients.attr({
    class: "line-clients"
  });
  var group_line = canvas.group(line_clients);

  group_line.attr({
    fill: 'none',
    stroke: '#fff',
    strokeWidth: 0
  });

  $.each([line_clients], function(index, value) {
    value.attr({
      strokeDasharray: value.getTotalLength(),
      strokeDashoffset: value.getTotalLength(),
      strokeWidth: 1,
      stroke: '#000'
    });

    value.animate({
        strokeDashoffset: 0
      },
      speed * 2,
      mina.easeinout
    );
  });
});

Только вот, когда открываешь мой SVG, я не ожидал, что там столько текста ради такой линии.
Я не прошу за себя сделать работу, но может кто-то пнет меня на нужный источник, а лучше пример.
Находил цент, какой с svg конвертирует в JS. Но я либо не разобрался, либо там нет возможности анимации.

A: Решение SVG + Mask
Трудности с анимацией рисования с помощью пунктирной линии вызваны тем, что пунктирная линия заполняет всю длину линии или path.
Поэтому бесполезно пытаться повторить технику рисования, как это делается сплошной линией с помощью изменения stroke-dashoffset (отступа линии от начала) от максимума длины линии до нуля.
Линия заполнена полностью, поэтому она будет просто бежать:

.path {

  stroke-dashoffset: 1490;
  animation: dash 12s linear forwards;
}

@keyframes dash {
  to {
    stroke-dashoffset: 0;
  }
}
<svg id="svg1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
  width="746px" height="500px" viewBox="0 0 746 500"  >

  <path class="path" fill="none"  stroke-dasharray="8 24"  stroke="#000000" stroke-width="4" d="M158,462.5h105.5c36.175,0,65.5-29.575,65.5-65.75
 s-29.263-65.375-65.438-65.375L84,331c-35.346,0-64-28.403-64-63.75c0-35.346,28.654-63.75,64-63.75h578
 c35.346,0,63.5-28.903,63.5-64.25V20"/>

</svg>

Решить данную проблему можно с помощью маски, которая сначала полностью повторяет и закрывает path, затем с помощью stroke-dashoffset постепенно сдвигается и открывает пунктирную линию, создавая иллюзию появления, рисования пунктирной линии.

var svg = document.getElementById('svg1');
svg.addEventListener("click",() =>{
  an_stroke.beginElement();
})
<svg id="svg1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
  width="100%" height="100%" viewBox="0 0 746 500"  >

Крайний пример взят отсюда

A: Рисовать в любом случае придётся. Эту линиую надо изобразить заново одним путём. Далее варианта два.

*

*использовать оригинальный кривой и ужасный SVG. Поверх накрыть его своей линией цвета фона, толщины достаточной, чтобы закрыть полностью. Потом анимировать длину штриха и подобрать смещение так, чтобы кривая поверх «скрывалась», открывая пунктир под ней. Ниже эта техника подробнее.

*если требуется рисовать сплошной линией – можно изобразить прорисовку одного длинного пути, меняя длину штриха (решение отсюда). Пришлось перерисовать путь, чтобы он стал одной кривой. Смотрите в полный экран, т.к. кривая крупная.

.path {
  stroke-dasharray: 1490;
  stroke-dashoffset: 1490;
  animation: dash 4s linear forwards;
}

@keyframes dash {
  to {
    stroke-dashoffset: 0;
  }
}
<svg version="1.1" id="Layer_1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" x="0px" y="0px"
  width="746px" height="482px" viewBox="0 0 746 482" enable-background="new 0 0 746 482" xml:space="preserve">
<path class="path" fill="none" stroke="#000000" stroke-width="4" stroke-miterlimit="10" d="M158,462.5h105.5c36.175,0,65.5-29.575,65.5-65.75
 s-29.263-65.375-65.438-65.375L84,331c-35.346,0-64-28.403-64-63.75c0-35.346,28.654-63.75,64-63.75h578
 c35.346,0,63.5-28.903,63.5-64.25V20"/>
</svg>

Чтобы «рисовать» пунктиром можно сразу нарисовать весь путь пунктиром, а потом поверх закрыть этой же кривой цвета фона. И её не рисовать, а наоборот, скрывать задом наперёд той же техникой, как в первом коде. Пример с прорисовкой пунктирной окружности (отсюда):

<svg width="400" height="400" viewBox="0 0 400 400" >
    <circle cx="200" cy="200" r="167" stroke-dasharray="1,6" stroke-width="1"  stroke="red" fill="white" />
    <circle cx="200" cy="200" r="167" stroke-dasharray="1200,1200 " stroke-width="3" stroke-dashoffset="0" stroke="white" fill="none">
       <animate attributeType="XML" attributeName="stroke-dashoffset" from="0" to="1200" dur="4s" repeatCount="1" fill="freeze" />
    </circle>
</svg>

A: Вероятно, оторвать руки тому, кто этот svg сделал, и переписать на пунктирную линию из прямых и дуг. В этом svg не линия - там каждый штришок сделан отдельным замкнутым контуром из кривых безье - всё это чудо объединено в один path. Думаю, ни у кого нет ни малейшего желания это анимировать.

По идее, должно получиться svg из следующего набора команд:
M ... v ... a ... h ... a ... h ... a ... h ...

A: Решение SVG + Mask + JS
Можно использовать пунктирную линию в качестве маски для анимированной линии.

// Получить идентификатор элемента <path> и длину <path>
var myline = document.getElementById("myline");
var length = myline.getTotalLength();
circle = document.getElementById("circle");
// Начальная позиция анимации
myline.style.strokeDasharray = length;

// Скройте треугольник, смещая черту. Удалите эту линию, чтобы показать треугольник перед прокруткой
myline.style.strokeDashoffset = length;

// Найти процент прокрутки при прокрутке (используя свойства кросс-браузера) и сместить тире столько же, сколько и процент прокрутки
window.addEventListener("scroll", myFunction);

function myFunction() {
  // What % down is it?
  var scrollpercent = (document.body.scrollTop + document.documentElement.scrollTop) / (document.documentElement.scrollHeight - document.documentElement.clientHeight);
  // Длина для смещения тире
  var draw = length * scrollpercent;

  // тирайте рисунок (при прокрутке вверх)
  myline.style.strokeDashoffset = length - draw;

  //Получить точку
  endPoint = myline.getPointAtLength(draw);
  circle.setAttribute("cx", endPoint.x);
  circle.setAttribute("cy", endPoint.y);

}
body {
  height: 2000px;
  background: #f1f1f1;
}

#circle {
  fill: red;
}

#mySVG {
  position: fixed;
  top: 15%;
  width: 100vw;
  height: 100vh;
  margin-left: -50px;
}

.st0 {
  fill: none;
  stroke-dashoffset: 3px;
  stroke: red;
  stroke-width: 5;
  stroke-miterlimit: 10;
  stroke-dasharray: 20;
}

.mask-style {
  stroke: white;
  stroke-width: 7;
}

Прокрутите это окно, чтобы нарисовать  путь..

Scroll  назад, чтобы повернуть рисунок

Ryan Oakes and Magnolia Park team up on huge new single WHITE FLAG
Ryan Oakes and Magnolia Park have joined forces for WHITE FLAG, which Ryan calls "incredibly unique" and says that "nothing's really been made like it yet".
With Magnolia Park dropping their debut this year and Ryan Oakes eyeing up his in 2023, it makes sense for two of the scene's most new young artists to team up for a massive collab.
And that's exactly what they've done, with Ryan recruiting the pop-punk favourites on the explosive, infectious WHITE FLAG. "I believe this song is incredibly unique and that nothing's really been made like it yet," he says. "I tapped Magnolia Park to jump on the second verse and get out of their comfort zone a bit with the rapping and they absolutely nailed it."
Magnolia Park add: "Ryan asked us to hop on this track with him and we loved the sound. We loved working with him on it and can't wait to see what he has coming next."

Destination Imagination: Lakeside students win spot at global competition
May 4th, 2016 | by Kendi A. Rainwater
Lakeside Elementary teachers Arthur Williams and Emma Echols coach the school's Destination Imagination team, which won first place in the national Destination Imagination competition this spring.
Lakeside Elementary's Destination Imagination team won first place in the national Destination Imagination competition this spring.
For more information about Lakeside Elementary's Destination Imagination team visit bit.ly/1qJRUwP.
Korianna Lewis helped write the musical. The fourth-grader at Lakeside Elementary also made her costume, attaching paper music notes to her dress. She and her five classmates practiced and practiced for their big performance at the statewide Destination Imagination competition.
And they won!
This is the first year Lakeside Elementary has competed in a Destination Imagination competition, which aims to foster students' creative problem-solving skills. The competition blends arts and science by requiring students to write and perform a musical and also design and build a wooden musical instrument that can hold weight.
Emma Echols, a music teacher at Lakeside who started the team, said she never expected the group of six students to win the regional and state competition the first year and have the opportunity to travel to the global competition.
But Korianna was more confident.
"I always thought our team would win," she said.
Echols said she couldn't be more proud of the students. It took a lot of hard work to get to the Nashville tournament on April 9 because students are required to create everything they use during the competitions.
"We can only model how to do things for them," Echols said. "So we would say things like, 'Here, this is how you use wood glue,' and then watch as they did it."
Despite all the preparation, Echols said there were hurdles getting to the competition. The bus broke down halfway through the trip, making the team hours late.
"But once we got there everyone was so helpful and bent over backwards to let us compete," Echols said. "And I was so proud of the kids. They met each challenge with such resilience."
As the team performed their musical, it was third-grader Maliki Lee's job to place the weights on top of the wooden instrument the team had made.
Maliki said he wasn't nervous as he stacked more than 480 pounds on top of the small wooden guitar-like instrument without it breaking, which helped the team win the competition.
As the group was traveling home on the bus, Echols said, one of the competition judges called and asked to be placed on speakerphone. As the Lakeside team members listened, the judge said they had won first place, giving them a spot in the global competition in Knoxville May 25-28.
"We all got excited and was laughing," Korianna said.
Now, though, the team needs to raise $730 for each team member to compete.
Echols said this is far more than the families of these kids can pay, but she and fellow team leader Arthur Williams, who also teaches at Lakeside, are optimistic the money will come.
Williams said no matter what happens next for the team, he thinks it's been a great opportunity for the kids and he hopes to have a team again next year.
"It's so hands-on and the kids are solving problems," Williams said. "It's expanding what they learn in the classroom. And it's really, really fun."

You are here: OMIA / Search / OMIA 000894 / cattle
OMIA 000894-9913 : Scurs in Bos taurus
Mode of inheritance: Autosomal
Considered a defect: no
Mapping: This locus was mapped to BTA19 by Asai et al. (2002). Since the horns locus is on BTA1, there is now convincing evidence that these two traits are inherited independently in cattle.
Note: the references are listed in reverse chronological order (from the most recent year to the earliest year), and alphabetically by first author within a year.

First-known minister of Gun Violence Prevention ordained July 7
July 9, 2019 by Presbyterian News Service Leave a Comment
DALLAS — On Sunday the Rev. Deanna Hollas became the first-known minister of Gun Violence Prevention following a service held at her home church in Dallas.

Sponsored by Grace Presbytery, which includes congregations of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) in north and northeastern Texas, the service of ordination was held at Westminster Presbyterian Church in Dallas.
"In the last 100 days, 10,000 Americans have died from gun violence and 22,000 have been injured," said the preacher for the service, the Rev. Dr. Clay Brantley. "Deanna's call is a sign of the great persistence and wisdom of God."
In her new call, Hollas will serve as the Coordinator of Gun Violence Prevention Ministries of Presbyterian Peace Fellowship, serving a network of over 800 local Presbyterian gun violence prevention advocates in all 50 states.
"With all the gun violence in our country, it is easy to lose hope and ask: where is God? But I am hopeful," Hollas said. "I see God raising up so many people and churches to study and speak out and work towards ending the violence that is plaguing our nation. Change is coming."
Hollas holds a Master of Divinity from Perkins School of Theology and a Diploma in the Art of Spiritual Direction from San Francisco Theology Seminary. In addition to her work as a Dallas gun violence prevention activist, she is co-founder of Retreat House Spirituality Center in Richardson, Texas, a covenant community of spiritual directors. Her husband, Chris Hollas, and children Eleanor, Emily and John joined her at the service.
Presided over by Rev. David Schaefers, the Moderator of Grace Presbytery, and a special ordaining commission, the ordination service included traditional elements such as the serving of communion, the hymn "Holy, Holy, Holy" and the participation of Hollas' Presbyterian parents, Dr. Richard and Sharon Morgan of Plainview, Texas.
At the same time, it also introduced a new hymn about gun violence prevention, "If We Just Talk of Thoughts and Prayers" by Presbyterian pastor and lyricist the Rev. Carolyn Winfrey Gillette. Representing the Presbyterian Peace Fellowship, Rev. Jan Orr-Harter presented Hollas with an orange stole, the color of the nationwide gun violence prevention movement. The stole included faces of children, a reminder of the lives at stake.
The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) has called on its members to study and engage in dialogue and action on ways to prevent the growing epidemic of gun violence from murders, suicides, accidents, mass shootings and family violence. For over 50 years, the denomination has supported action on concrete measures such as universal background checks, beginning in 1968 following the assassination of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
"Gun violence is causing too much grief and sorrow for the church to ignore," said Rev. Margery Rossi, Chair of the Gun Violence Prevention Working Group of the Presbyterian Peace Fellowship. "I rejoice that God has called Deanna to use her gifts to help us change. Rev. Hollas is, to our knowledge, the first and only clergyperson in the nation ordained to this ministry. She brings vast experience to this work as a spiritual director and a gun violence prevention activist. We look forward to the results that her 'energy, intelligence, imagination and love' bring about in the church."

Throughout the Season of Lent, we learn through Jesus's journey. We anticipate Christ's gift of Grace. We learn that we need to Share the Journey as Jesus did with his disciples. This Season is all about anticipating the Grace we receive with no strings attached... it is just a gift.
For the after-worship fellowship hour during Lent, coffee, tea and juice will be provided and we are asking people to bring something to Share the Journey during fellowship. In the potluck-style coffee hour, we will share in the Lenten journey.
Ash Wednesday worship will take place on February 18 at 7pm in the sanctuary. The service is reflective, and includes a time of confession and the imposition of ashes, for those who wish to receive the mark of the cross.
Maundy Thursday worship will take place on Thursday, April 2, at 7pm in the sanctuary. The service will include the Lord's Supper and the stripping of the sanctuary.
Good Friday worship will take place on Friday, April 3, at 7pm in the sanctuary. This is a service of shadows and silence.
Teri will be offering a Thursday morning bible study. Starting on February 19th , 9:30 – 11:00 a.m.. Topic is Matthew: the rest of the story. We will be studying the texts you won't hear during Sunday worship this season, so we can better see and anticipate how God is working. Homemade baked goods and coffee will be supplied (yum). Come and share the journey anticipating the grace we have been given.
When: Friday, February 27th and March 6th from 6:00 – 8:00 pm.
Come and spend the evening watching the movie, "The Gospel according to Saint Matthew" (we will watch 1⁄2 of the movie each night). Enjoy a wonderful meal and lively discussion. You need do nothing... just show up and enjoy. This is a great opportunity to share the journey with a friend!
The Hope College Chamber Orchestra, Directed by Ingrid Lestrud, is on tour! They will be providing a Saturday evening concert on March 14th at 7pm, and then on Sunday they will provide special music during the worship service. WE NEED YOUR HELP! The Orchestra has 18 members and we will need homes to house them on Saturday evening, provide a little breakfast on Sunday morning plus a lift to church. We need to house them in pairs or more, and they can share a room as long as they have a bed or futon to sleep. Please email Teri if you can house these talented musicians. This is your opportunity for anticipated grace to share the journey with these students.
Have you ever thought what happens with our PADS guests when the season ends? What types of things could they use throughout the spring and summer to help in their lives? Check out the list of items that can be donated for our guests on the bulletin board in the Narthex. Please place those items in the basket in the Narthex by Sunday, March 29th. Anticipate Grace; Share Their Journey.
Are you are looking for a way to share the journey of the Kids Hope program? Our mentors could use travel size games that are educational, without being educational specifically games such as Yahtzee, Boggle, or Connect Four. You can put them in the church office or give them to Kelly.
