The recent times have witnessed a staggering amount of money being spent on data centers including the monumental outlay for basic infrastructure, energy bills, cost of maintenance and upgrades, and, of course, staffing with expensive IT talent. This makes it critical for CIOs that the data centers go online on time, ready for 24/7 uptime, especially if they are running mission-critical tasks. To this end, it is imperative for the CIOs to partner with a company that has the experience and knowledge of the data center operations. By delivering complete white space construction, modifications, and services to some of the leading commercial and government data centers across the country, Layer One Technology Solutions Corp. delivers on the role of a premier data center white space solution provider.
Founded in 2014 with a focus on cabling and infrastructure in the public and private sector, Layer One has evolved over the years to deliver a complete turn-key solution in the data center white space and commercial office environment to many prestigious clients such as Corning, General Dynamics, SAIC, and many other government entities. "We operate as a one-stop shop for all the needs that a client might have whether that's security, audio-visual, fiber optics, or data center white space services," says Jason Thompson, the President, and CEO of Layer One. He attributes the success of his company to his team's military and government background and the years of experience that they have to work in the commercial arena.
"By leveraging our experience with the state, local and federal governments, we have secured many large private sector clients and grown organically," states Thompson.
Specializing in the data center white space, Layer One operationalizes the physical infrastructure and glacial offerings for different service providers. The company works directly with the end-users through its account and project managers. They help the clients in custom-designing the solutions according to their needs. Next, Layer One's engineers design the system and processes for the clients that are implemented on their site. "Our dedicated project engineers and managers are constantly working with our customers to comprehend their requirement and deliver solutions that fit their organizational mission and value," mentions Thompson. In addition, Layer One also provides services on the construction aspect whether it involves putting conduit infrastructure together for a communication system or security purpose, constructing cage walls, data center containment or cable tray systems they are able to provide the customer a turnkey product. Through Layer One's one-stop-shop solution, clients are enabled to carry out a complete integration of their systems by collaborating with a single solution provider.
Having carved a unique niche in the IT infrastructure, Layer One aims to grow rapidly in the next 12- 18 months. The company delivers turnkey solutions nationwide today, they will be collaborating with many global conglomerates for delivering data center projects in the near future. Thompson mentions that in addition to all of the data center white space services they offer Layer One also provides services and solutions for the copper and fiber infrastructure systems, wifi system design and installation, physical security solutions, audio visual solutions and VoIP for commercial and government entities across the county.

Each year millions of animals are used and sacrificed for experimental purposes in the name of science and investigation. This broad definition embraces industries like the pharmacological, medical, chemical, armament, food, biogenetic, household products, cosmetic, veterinary, academic, etc.
The term "experiment" means all kinds of tests on an animal that can cause pain, suffering, anguish.... the list of experiments to which animals have been and are being subjected is endless and the cruelty of many of them difficult to imagine.
In Europe the annual figure for animals used in experiments surpasses 11,000,000 and in the U.S.A., according to various estimates, the figure could be over 100 million.
Primates, dogs, cats, horses, rats, goats, birds and fish are a small example of the species used in the field of experimentation. Some of these procedures were formalized years ago at official level in many countries, becoming legal tests justifying preliminary reports with a view to obtaining authorization to commercialize new ingredients and products. The number of new products constantly being launched on the market (household cleaning, agriculture, cosmetics, chemist, etc.) and the typology of these very tests means that, every year millions of animals are sacrificed, and systematically suffer the same cruel and prolonged experimental processes. Some of these procedures were formalized years ago at official level in many countries, becoming legal tests justifying preliminary reports with a view to obtaining authorization to commercialize new ingredients and products.
The endless amount of new products constantly being launched on the market (for cleaning, agriculture, cosmetics, chemists, etc.) and the typology of these very tests means that, every year millions of animals are sacrificed, and systematically and repeatedly suffer the same cruel procedures during prolonged experimental processes.
MOST FREQUENT TESTS
LETHAL DOSAGE (Ld50) The test for acute toxicity consists in calculating what the lethal dosage is of a product or chemical substance. To do it a group of animals is chosen that is forced to consume via probe or other intravenous or subcutaneous systems, a determined amount of said product. The operation is repeated until 50% of the animals die. During the process, which can last for a few days, and depending on the substance given, the animals can suffer from ulcers, convulsions, lung, renal, hepatic, haemorrhage injuries, etc. until they die. The animals used are usually, rats, cats, dogs, rabbits...
DRAIZE TEST This test is usually done on groups of albino rabbits, which immobilised inside boxes, are treated with the concentrated chemical product that is being tested. The test can last between one and various weeks. The animals try to escape given the terrible discomfort that the process causes them. The reaction to the product, besides irritation, produces inflammation, ulcers, blindness.
SKIN IRRITATION TEST The animals chosen are shaved down to the skin and they are treated with the substance to observe the irritation and reactions to the skin: inflammation, ulcers, etc.
ETHICAL REASONS AND SCIENTIFIC OBJECTIONS COINCIDE IN REJECTING EXPERIMENTING WITH ANIMALS.
Besides criticism and opposition raised due to ethical reasons, numerous scientific objections exist because of low accuracy, little effect and reliability offered by this type of test. Among many other reasons given the physical and biochemical differences between the species. Although each of these tests shows the reaction of the animal object of the experiment, they do not forecast the subsequent reactions and after-effects on the different species, including humans, the final destiny of many of the products commercialized. A certain industry revolves around experimenting with animals which, to benefit its own economic interests, backs continuing with it by curbing development and implementation of other alternative techniques, which besides being bloodless, are quicker, more reliable and economical.
In spite of the thousands of cosmetic products already existing on the market, still today, thousands of animals are intoxicated, blinded or ulcerated in testing cosmetic products such as: eye shadows, lipsticks, moisturisers, nail polishes, sun products, soaps, etc.
The majority of European citizens consider it totally unjustified to use and cause suffering to animals, just to produce and commercialize these products. Thanks to a huge international campaign co-ordinated by the European Coalition to put an end to experimenting with animals, COAEA, of which ADDA is a member, and has very actively participated in, what was achieved was that the European Directive ruled that the manufacture and sale of cosmetic products experimented on animals is prohibited.
However, due to pressure by industry lobbies, this Directive has been postponed several times since the year 2000 and 2002, date when it was forecast, until the last moratorium that delays its coming into force until the year 2013.
Meanwhile and until the final prohibition is not in force, and due to the awareness and preference of consumers, for some years now, there exists an increasing number of commercial firms that have chosen to produce and sell products not tested on animals.
If you are doubtful when choosing a product there is a list that you can consult.
In the publications section you will find more information on this subject.

Keeps our work orders from getting lost in the paperwork. Don't like the inventory portion, would also like to turn off certain functions of the software. To me it's getting "bloated" with alot of functions that don't seem functional.
We just use the work orders and PM's. Very easy to use these portions of the software. Our maintenance crew finds the software very functional as well. Keeps our work orders in front of us.
I don't like all the other stuff they pack into this software, would be nice if these other options could be turned off. Would like the inventory part to work better but I guess we are the only ones. Overall, good for the price.

Fort Smith will pay about $131,000 in 2019 to the Fort Chaffee Redevelopment Authority as part of incentives that brought companies to the city.
FCRA donated land to Graphic Packaging, Mars Petcare and Umarex USA when the three businesses wanted to relocate to Fort Smith, said Janet Gabrey, FCRA director of finance.
In return, the city and Sebastian County pay a certain amount of money or a portion of the estimated revenue from the general property taxes paid by the companies, according to the contracts provided to the Times Record.
When Graphic Packaging announced its move to Fort Smith, it was agreed the city would pay $230,000 by the end of 2004. Then, beginning in 2006, pay $31,000 annually for 13 years.
"Graphic Packaging will be the first major employer ever to build a facility on Fort Chaffee soil from the ground up and will pave the way for future development," said Jerry Stewart, FCRA board chairman in 2004.
Mayor Sandy Sanders was the FCRA executive director at the time. According to reports, the organization requested part of the property taxes as a way to pay for future water and utilities costs.
The city will have fulfilled its contract related to Graphic Packaging this year.
Two similar agreements were approved in 2009 for Mars Petcare and Umarex. FCRA would receive a payment equal to the general purpose millage revenue to the city and county.
This revenue would be paid for up to $500,000 for Mars Petcare, according to the contract.
The Umarex contract is in effect until Fort Smith pays 30 yearly installments, according to the agreement. Its land, according to previous reports, was worth $750,000 at the time.
These funds are all in exchange for various services provided by FCRA.
The services include, but are not limited to, using its resources to promote the location and development of businesses to provide jobs and economic activity, provide information about proposed actions and easements related to the Fort Smith side of Chaffee Crossing, develop federal grants for water and sewer infrastructure planning, design and construction.
It will also provide information about needed improvements and maintain an active role in Fort Smith planning as it relates to Chaffee Crossing.
These payments were discussed during the 2019 city budget hearing Nov. 26 and a question residents had as the agreements pre-date most of the current city leadership.

Apart from that, make sure, that the document contains the complete information necessary to solve the problem by the people involved. Case studies include for a long time the research methodology of the companies all over the world. However, this can represent a challenge for most, because you have to keep the reader in the whole period, engaged. Until the very end, they should be eligible for a solution to the problem, in the performance measure research indicated, to propose. Now that you are ready to create a performance measure evaluation study, it is a complete research required at this stage to perform.
First, you have all data by means of the Internet and also through the Obtain review of performance indicator reports which you have received over the years. You can obtain information also through conversations with the people who are involved in the topic that you want to solve for the performance indicator study,. The challenge is to find knowledgeable people, which have Assistant information relating to the case or circumstances. You can make calls with your employees and your customers because your employees are aware that the social performance indicators used. Apart from that, they are those who bear witness to the acquired improvements through the use of key performance indicators.
On the other hand, customers can offer regarding their opinions of the way in which the company works, while the performance key figures were used. After the research phase, you can go to the evaluation phase, where you put together all the information. The guiding principle here, is to know what kind of information in the report are included to and which are not. Always remember that not all acquired information is usable. You should organize this information, sort out to remove excess data, that Lord would renew the design of performance index study.

After you are done with the evaluation phase, it is write and make sure that the design is successful, critical prior to the completion of the performance indicator case study. The key to this, is to formulate the problem in a few sentences. The sentences are longer, the harder it is for the decision-makers to understand, which are the key points of the presentation, which you should focus your attention. The description of the problem to the end of the performance indicator case study, what an introduction, background, Government policy and Business opportunities, is also essential.

Breaking hearts and breaking the law
Rachael Maskell MP for York Central
Today, a Government Minister has confirmed that City of York Council cannot deny people the right to attend the funeral services of their close family members and will be issuing "a very strong rebuttal" to the actions taken by York's Council.
Rachael Maskell, MP for York Central has worked around the clock to get this decision overturned following reading letters from distraught close relatives of the deceased. She was greatly moved by the incredible tributes paid to parents and other close family members, including an only child. She has responded to each powerful testimony and reached out to others in the city, like faith leaders who were also deeply troubled by the actions of the Council.
The York Central MP has ascertained that Councils, who were cited by City of York Council as also instituting similar measures, like Bradford, have not gone down this path. She has also spoken to leaders at Public Health England who stressed that their guidance published on 31 March 2020 should enable funerals to go ahead. Public Health England have confirmed that the conduct of City of York Council can be reported to the Ombudsman.
Rachael Maskell MP says:
"City of York Council have not only been breaking hearts but also breaking the law. The Government guidance, drawn up by Public Health England was very clear that funerals should proceed, but the right precautions must also be put in place by limiting the attendance to close family members and ensuring that social distancing is put in place. Proper care of crematorium staff must also occur.
"I have had the privilege of reading about the lives of constituents who have recently passed away but also the pain and heartache of their families at being denied the opportunity to 'say goodbye' to their precious loved ones. One described the ruling as causing far more distress than the actual death, others describing how the enduring pain will never leave them of not being able to honour their lives with a simple service. My thoughts and prayers are with all those families grieving at this time.
"I have been deeply moved by my constituents and have worked day and night to get this decision overturned. It is clear that the Council have acted without authority and following the Government's instructions. At a time when City of York Council are still not instituting strict social distancing measures for their staff working in a number of areas, risking us all, I am incensed that they felt they had a right to cause such grief to families at their most vulnerable time."
Rachael Maskell MP has asked City of York Council to:
That you will immediately withdraw from withholding attendance at crematorium services
That you will immediately apologise to those families who have had to suffer the severe grief of being barred from attending the services of their families
That all families who have been told that they cannot attend a future service are contacted
That you will set out how families who were barred from attending the funeral of their close relative will be compensated
If it is not too late then can these cancelled services are rearranged.

Solidarity means to stand (work, invest, harvest and nourish) with all the people of the earth willing to work together to provide essential goods and services for each person. We can help all those who will contribute effort and resources towards common well-being. In solidarity with people here and in an interdependent world, we conserve resources so that systems may be established to recognise and employ the gifts of everyone and the environment in investment and exchange. In integrity (equally respecting all components and systems at every scale from micro to macro), we include every person as a positive resource and contributor to their livelihood requirements. In this sense we live and work simply, conserving our resources till worldwide, everyone, every being and the environment is empowered to create and have at least enough resources to continue and thrive.
a)Socrates: "He is rich who is content with the least; for contentment is the wealth of nature." "What a lot of things there are a man can do without."
"The way to gain a good reputation is to endeavor to be what you desire to appear." "How many are the things I can do without!"
"Remember, no human condition is ever permanent. Then you will not be overjoyed in good fortune nor too scornful in misfortune."
In the 'indigenous' (Latin = 'self-generating') welcome tradition of the Longhouse and String-shell, I openly structure my economy in a full-cycle of formal giving and receiving, so that all may partake equitably.

* Acting towards the fulfillment of essential purposes is a human right and obligation. We may use the means and any steps necessary to achieve essential needs. Example: The planting of trees may not realize produce for a few years, and the tools necessary be they mechanical, electronic etc. may not fall within the scope of essential resources in themselves but are engaged towards essential aims, as our individual and collective choices allow us. Hence the capital building of ecological infrastructure, tools, water systems, housing, transportation, storage, transformation facilities, biosphere tools, bio-diversity etc may all be used towards the purposes of essential goods and services.

SECURING THE MEANS OF LIVELIHOOD is a most fundamental human concern and right. When means are insecure then human existence is as well. When we have resources such as money, time or other assets, they are the result of many people having worked together in harmony with nature.
EATING & LIVING SIMPLY for greatest personal or family health as well as planning for collaboration with the livelihood needs/efforts of others in community is necessary in order to generate the most effective ecological footprint. Developing critical masses of actors working together in 'community' service is personally and collectively empowering. The Latin origin of the words: community, communication, municipality is 'com' = 'together' + 'munus' = 'gift or service'.
STEWARDSHIP lies within each one of us individually and all have gifts to offer. It is my privilege to use my resources as investment to mobilise my household, family, friends and all who are receptive in community, to organise the means of production or invest capital towards creating feasible livelihood.
WELCOME is humanity's greatest gift, which we accomplish through open inclusive organisation of labour. Everything we want for the world is linked to the essence of gifts within ourselves, our families, communities, cities, provinces, nations, continents, hemispheres and world manifested at many levels.

e) TWO ROW WAMPUM Treaty as part of the Covenant Chain between First Nations and the original Dutch, English and French colonies showed the ongoing intention by First Nations since a century a welcoming Europeans.
The Iroquois Confederacy, also known as the Haudenosaunee, began the Covenant Chain in 1692. This treaty is recorded in the Two Row Wampum belt called the Guswenta.
First Nations fed, clothed, healed and nurtured European colonists intimately. They saw our divisions and individual isolation from each other as a feudal militaristic society. First Nations seeing our diseased social relations and having military advantage could have wiped Europeans out any time during the first two hundred years, but instead chose to help us understand their Great Law of Peace. While some whites joined with democratic First Nations to escape these cruel societies, most remained chained and subservient even to this day. The epidemics of Euro-Asian-African diseases killed some 95% of First Nation populations, policies of genocide and apartheid broke the ability of whole communities to demonstrate their methods to the newcomers.
The Two Row Wampum represents a belief in the integrity of each person and the inevitability that truth will find its way as well as the Caucusing process by which those with unique differences, truths and mannerisms are invited to walk parallel paths with the main body in order so that each can further learn from each other. During the invasions, Europeans not having this civility did not understand their obligations as well as understood but feared their own societies more and therefore did not act responsibly.
Two Row is included here in this section on Solidarity because it evokes the importance of individual compassionate responsibility for all those in our community and a role for individual voluntary simplicity in nurturing enough for all. The practices of the Financial Integrity program share this same respect for individual understandings and action.
f) INSTITUTE for ECONOMIC DEMOCRACY JW Smith and associates have published well researched books on what has become western Plunder of Third World resources available at http://www.ied.info They provide many books free online as well as selling published paper copies. Here are two major works for those wanting to understand the world's economic system.
The ecological footprint is a measure of human demand on the Earth's ecosystems. It compares human demand with planet Earth's ecological capacity to regenerate. It represents the amount of biologically productive land and sea area needed to regenerate the resources a human population consumes and to absorb and render harmless the corresponding waste. Using this assessment, it is possible to estimate how much of the Earth (or how many planet Earths) it would take to support humanity if everybody lived a given lifestyle. For 2006, humanity's total ecological footprint was estimated at 1.4 planet Earths – in other words, humanity uses ecological services 1.4 times as fast as Earth can renew them. Every year, this number is recalculated — with a three year lag due to the time it takes for the UN to collect and publish all the underlying statistics.
While the term ecological footprint is widely used, methods of measurement vary. However, calculation standards are now emerging to make results more comparable and consistent.
The first academic publication about the ecological footprint was by William Rees in 1992. The ecological footprint concept and calculation method was developed as the PhD dissertation of Mathis Wackernagel, under Rees' supervision at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada, from 1990–1994. Originally, Wackernagel and Rees called the concept "appropriated carrying capacity". To make the idea more accessible, Rees came up with the term "ecological footprint," inspired by a computer technician who praised his new computer's "small footprint on the desk." In early 1996, Wackernagel and Rees published the book Our Ecological Footprint: Reducing Human Impact on the Earth.
A number of NGO websites allow estimation of one's ecological footprint (see Footprint Calculator, below).
Ecological footprinting is now widely used around the globe as an indicator of environmental sustainability. It can be used to measure and manage the use of resources throughout the economy. It can be used to explore the sustainability of individual lifestyles, goods and services, organizations, industry sectors, neighborhoods, cities, regions and nations. Since 2006, a first set of ecological footprint standards exist that detail both communication and calculation procedures. They are available at www.footprintstandards.org and were developed in a public process facilitated by Global Footprint Network and its partner organizations.
The number of hectares of productive land or sea required to support one average person at the world average consumption level.
An ecological footprint is the total area of productive land and water required to support an organism and can be expressed as the number of planets that would be required to support the global population if everyone lived a certain lifestyle: in the UK this figure is three planets.


Blackwing teamed up with the craftsmen at Bradley Mountain to make a utility roll designed specifically for Blackwing pencils. Each durable waxed canvas roll holds five Blackwing pencils (included), a memo book and a sharpener (not included), while being flexible enough to adapt to a variety of uses.
The Blackwing Pencil Roll is hand-crafted in San Diego, California using grey Martexin waxed canvas and oiled black leather. The canvas is a unique 8.25 oz not found in most utility rolls in order to create a durable roll that maintains a low profile when filled.


Viewing:Home It's a Crazy Real Estate Market – Will Your House Appraise?
One of the biggest problems in today's local real estate market is will your house appraise when it sells for way over asking price? There is such a lack of inventory in the Johnson County market that houses are selling within hours of coming on the market. Home buyers are doing anything and everything to be the winning offer in a multiple offer situation. And they are paying way too much for houses that aren't really worth what they are selling for and that's a real problem.
Truth of the matter is, the house still has to appraise. Before the appraisal the sellers and buyers have to agree to terms after all the inspections are complete. Only after that will the appraisal be ordered by the lender.
Appraisers are very busy in this crazy market. They are doing their best to get appraisals back to the lenders in enough time to go through underwriting, get final loan approval and close on time.
But what happens when the appraiser doesn't find comparables to substantiate your home's selling price?
First of all, waiting to look at all offers after being on the market for 3 days is probably going to be your first problem. Don't be greedy. You know what your house is worth…if you sell it for $20,000 over asking price, will your house appraise? Probably not. Don't blame the appraiser. He's just doing his job. Don't expect him to put some unrealistic value on your house when it doesn't exist. He's working for the buyer and the lender. He's going to say, "Show me the comps you used to arrive at this price." Do they exist? Appraisers need proof. I sold Rick and Karen's house by the end of the first day on the market to a cash buyer and for $15,000 over asking – with no appraisal. We had one offer of $23,000 over asking. I thought that was going to be a problem.
Your appraisal is going to be done very late in the game…maybe a couple of weeks before closing. If this is the case, you need to do everything you can to make your house look its best. Impressing the appraiser is especially important if your house sold for over asking price. The appraiser is still going to compare apples to apples but I've had them tell me, "That house sure does show well." BINGO! That will usually raise the price to an extent. That's where home staging comes into play. The showings may be over, but next to your showings to nab the perfect buyer, the appraisal is the next most important showing there is. Get this one wrong and it could not only botch your sale, it could make a big difference in your next purchase.
Have a plan with your agent before your house comes on the market. IFTTT, is what I call it. If this, then that. Work through some scenarios of what might happen. If you have a brand new agent, they may not have enough experience of what will happen. But an experienced agent should be able to walk you through what to expect. Have that discussion before you're running high on emotion and you're unable to make a good decision based on facts. My average house sells the first day on the market because I set it up to happen that way. It's part of my marketing plan so I pretty much know what's going to happen and I expect it.
Having a game plan is a big part of will your house appraise? Think things through before you make some potential huge mistakes. If your house doesn't appraise for the price it sold for, be ready for that as well. Don't make your next transaction dependent on every dime you're expecting to receive on your house. You might not get what you thought and could end up not having enough money to close on your next home. I hear horror stories other agents tell. The job of your agent is to guide you through a successful transaction. Remember, the results you get will be because of the agent you choose. Choose carefully!
If you are selling your home, want a smooth transaction, a house that appraises, and more money in your pocket, call me at (913) 515-3250 or contact me here.

Chris Murphy plays in so many different styles that it makes sense that Kufala Recordings chose to release an entire series of thematically connected albums at once rather than try to cover all the bases on one. Juniper, as the "Fiddle Music" subtitle implies, is the folk-based set, but it's not a traditionalist album. Closer in concept and execution to Eliza Carthy's Red Rice set than anything else, Juniper sets folk-based fiddle forms against a folk-rock backing that's sort of an Americanized version of the veddy British Fairport Convention. At its best, as on the manic bluegrass-inspired opener, "Into the Wild," the results are an exciting instrumental take on folk-rock. At times, however, the equation leans a little too much to the rock side, with the result that songs like "The Painted Desert" and "Cora Street" sound more like the backing tracks for Dixie Chicks songs that somebody forgot to add the vocals to. Overall, however, Juniper is an entertaining listen.


Fresh attacks follow prime minister's visit to the region over the weekend.
"Initial investigations showed that it was an attack by Muslim insurgents," Thammasak said.
The attack took place in Sabayoi, a predominantly Muslim district, next to Pattani province, which along with Yala and Narathiwat provinces has been the scene of an uprising that has led to more than 1,900 deaths in the past three years.
A Muslim man in Yala, a Buddhist man in Pattani and a Buddhist couple in Songkhla were killed over the weekend.
In Pattani on Monday, a group of 70 Muslim women along with their children gathered in front of a police station in Nong Chik district to demand the release of Manadee Samah, a suspected Muslim fighter who was arrested on Sunday.
Surayud Chulanont, the prime minister, has pledged to end the violence and upon his appointment as premier, he offered an apology to local Muslims for past government wrongdoing.
But his visit to the region on Saturday – in which he reiterated his commitment to forging a peaceful solution to the unrest – coincided with the ambushing of police patrols and torching of a government school by the suspected fighters.


Would God condemn you for this?
Please read the story before voicing your opinion.
If Georgulas wins, James' therapist will assist him with his transition, eventually giving him access to puberty-blocking hormones and gender-reassignment surgery.
Puberty blocking drugs is a nice term for chemical castration. Just FYI.
Now to my question. If this was me,my ex-wife, and child, she would go missing. I honestly don't know if God would condemn me for that. My emotions run high on this, and when that happens I know I'm not the most rational, so I ask you.
I am no more accomplished in these things than any other...for in almost every situation I easily find what "I would do"...or "what I'd like to do"...and even those things of which I easily cry "But I can't see to do anything else but such and such..."
You and I will only be saved by One who "knows better"...and I surely don't know better how to make this clear to anyone...except that I am always being pressed to it.
My saying anything betrays a pride I can't deny. I can only testify as one who has, in so many ways, in so many matters...been allowed to glimpse how sorrow works toward a thing for the man who "takes things into his own hands". The thing it works toward, also I cannot deny...a glimpse of the one who entrusted himself into the faithful hands of another. To say his appearing has always outstripped everything I sought to do about anything...I cannot explain. Nor surely boast of in knowing of its working.
I do get glimpses...and encouragements of how "enemies" disappear. And appear then as loved ones. But, of myself, this cure I am most in need.
I am no stronger than any...and if christian, probably the weaker. In God's presence I would be a scoundrel to deny how often I have asked..."why Lord...why...would you save any of this...?" The answer never fails in joy. For if I can believe he can save such as me...the rest is really...quite easy.
And how dare I not believe the only One who has only ever told me the truth.
Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."
O! those red words. Thanks be to God they never "let me off the hook".
I would put forth prayer, seek council with God, and pray some more. My God can solve this problem. Somewhere it says in Romans 12 I believe that revenge is for God. This would for sure be a trying of your faith, to give it to God and the faith that he would put the proper attorneys, judge, jury in place to make the situation right. Now the Carnal side of me would probably go missing to some other country with my SON to keep me out of jail.
Where will you be sitting in eternity?
Mom and the therapist need intense psychiatric help.

Eric Ravilious, Train Landscape, 1940. This work, executed in watercolour and pencil, shows an empty train carriage. Look through the windows to see the countryside beyond. Painting by Eric Ravilious. Photograph by Frances Spiegel with permission of Dulwich Picture Gallery, all rights reserved.
Renowned artist and designer Eric Ravilious (1903-42) has more than one hundred watercolours featured in Ravilious, a major exhibition at Dulwich Picture Gallery.
James Russell, a leading specialist on Eric Ravilious, curates the exhibition, which features well-known works such as Train Landscape (1940) and Edward Bawden Working in his Studio (1930), on loan from Aberdeen Art Gallery & Museums Collections and the Royal College of Art Collection respectively.
Ravilious also offers a rare opportunity to view some of the artist's rarely shown watercolours such as Wet Afternoon (1938).
Ravilious explores common themes and characteristics in Ravilious's paintings through six themes: Relics and Curiosities; Figures and Forms; Interiors; Place and Season; Changing Perspectives; Darkness and Light.
Eric Ravilious, Wet Afternoon, 1938. Ravilious captures the English countryside on a bleak wet afternoon. Photograph taken by Frances Spiegel with permission of Dulwich Picture Gallery, all rights reserved.
After growing up in Eastbourne on England's South Coast, Eric Ravilious studied under Paul Nash at the Design School of the Royal College of Art. He became particularly well-known for his book illustrations and wood engravings, and he was also highly regarded as a designer.
Awarded a travelling scholarship to Italy in 1925, Ravilious visited Tuscany, Siena and Florence. He returned to England to teach at Eastbourne School of Art, and later at the Royal College of Art.
In 1928 Ravilious and his close friend Edward Bawden, whom he met while studying at the Royal College of Art, collaborated on a set of murals for the refectory of Morley College in South London. Prime Minister, Sir Stanley Baldwin, unveiled the murals early in 1930.
Widely reported in the press, the event propelled Ravilious and Bawden, two previously unknown artists, into the limelight. It sparked off a long list of commissions for watercolours and book illustrations. The murals no longer exist after bombing in 1941 destroyed them.

Ravilious features Edward Bawden Working in his Studio (1930). The painting is unusual, firstly because it is a portrait, and secondly because it's in tempera, a media Ravilious experimented with in the late 1920s and early 1930s, but didn't really develop.
The artist depicts Bawden working in his studio. In the corner behind him, and on top of a cupboard, we can see rolled up studies for the Morley College murals.
During the 1930s Ravilious produced designs for Wedgwood including celebration mugs to mark the coronations of King Edward VIII, George VI and Elizabeth II. Ravilious also designed advertisements for London Transport, glassware for Stuart Crystal and furniture for Dunbar Hay.
Bomb Diffusing Equipment (c.1940). Image shows bomb diffusing equipment painted by Eric Ravilious during his service as an official War Artist during World War II. Photograph taken by Frances Spiegel with permission of Dulwich Picture Gallery, all rights reserved.
Although highly successful in these fields, Ravilious focused more and more on his preferred media of watercolour painting and colour lithography.
In his first solo exhibition held in 1933, Ravilious sold twenty of the thirty-seven works on display.
Appointed as a full-time salaried war artist in 1940 by the War Artists' Advisory Committee, Ravilious received the honorary rank of Captain in the Royal Marines.
During his service he depicted various wartime subjects including Bomb Diffusing Equipment (c.1940) and Dangerous Work at Low Tide (1940).
Eric Ravilious Dangerous Work at Low Tide (1940). The figures in this painting are using the bomb diffusing equipment shown in the painting Bomb Diffusing Equipment (c 1940). Photograph taken by Frances Spiegel with permission of Dulwich Picture Gallery, all rights reserved.
The bomb diffusing equipment in the first painting is the same that the figures in the second use.
Eric Ravilious died on 2nd September 1942 whilst observing a sea rescue mission off the coast of Iceland.
Curator James Russell is a renowned specialist on Eric Ravilious. His recent publications include the exhibition catalogue, Ravilious, and the series Ravilious in Pictures (2009-12). James Russell spoke exclusively to Decoded Arts.
Decoded Arts: Ravilious created many wood carvings, but many art historians believe he saw painting as his true vocation. Do you agree?
James Russell: Yes, he started out as a wood engraver, but even in the 1920s, when he was comparatively young, he was determined to succeed as a watercolourist above all.
Decoded Arts: Did you have to make any difficult decisions about what to include or exclude from the exhibition?
Eric Ravilious, Midnight Sun (1940). Painted whilst serving as an official War Artist, this painting shows Ravilious fascination with light. Photograph taken by Frances Spiegel with permission of Dulwich Picture Gallery, all rights reserved.
James Russell: That's a very good question – I was always looking at the exhibition's themes and building the display around them. I wanted a balance of work that people knew well and work that they wouldn't know so well. So, yes, it was a very careful process.
Decoded Arts: Has your research led to the re-interpretation of Ravilious's work?
James Russell: Certainly, for me, looking at the pictures has changed the way I think about what he did. I see a lot more varied influences at work than I'd thought of previously. So, yes, it has.
Decoded Arts: How did Ravilious adapt his pre-war ideas and techniques for wartime paintings such as Midnight Sun?
James Russell: He continued much in the same vein, really. He had to pick military subjects. So he would look at a beautiful sky and there would have to be some kind of military activity going on. He continued to focus on light and always composed his work with the same care.
Decoded Arts: What is your favourite painting, and why?
Eric Ravilious, The Westbury Horse, (1939). Ravilious has a way of sculpting hillsides. The hill in this painting has a three-dimensional quality. Photograph taken by Frances Spiegel with permission of Dulwich Picture Gallery, all rights reserved.
James Russell: I have many favourites, but The Westbury Horse stands out particularly for me because it's a site I know well. What strikes me about the painting is the way that the train is captured just as it is about to disappear behind the hillside. Ravilious has a way of sculpting hillsides and the hill has this three-dimensional quality. It's hard to imagine that it's actually a watercolour.
Although Eric Ravilious enjoyed only a short career, he was an important figure in the revival of English watercolour painting. In charting the development of this unique talent, the exhibition presents an intimate portrait of the artist.
A fully-illustrated catalogue accompanies the exhibition, providing an enduring legacy of one of the 20th century's most remarkable artists. Ravilious is on show until 31st August 2015. Tickets and further information are available from Dulwich Picture Gallery.

9 Controversial Movies And Shows On Netflix Created Massive Buzz

Well, currently it has over 98 million subscribers out of which 50 million are from the USA. People of 45 different countries watch billions of hours time of videos every month. Out of all videos, 89% are original content and it started with the famous series House Of Cards.
There are some darker corners on Netflix where one can visit to dig up some of the most controversial shows and movies that never make it on the front page. These so-called controversial arts of creation have drawn quite a protest from a certain section of the society for the violence and sexual content portrayed on the screen.
While some of those protests have been successful but others got the much-needed exposure and fetched more views that most of the popular series and movies that people love to watch on Netflix. Here are the top ten controversial shows and movies on Netflix that you should watch at your own risk.
Also Read: The All Time Popular List of Top 15 Most watched TV shows
1. 13 Reasons Why
This is the most controversial series Netflix has ever streamed. It reached such a peak of controversy that Netflix itself had to do a press release to calm the situation down. It showed bullying, assault and suicide act among youths. Selena Gomez is one the producers of the show. Due to its controversy, it is getting a second sequel series as all eyes will be on it. It is the most tweeted show of 2017.
2. Iron Fist
Marvel's Iron Fist has somehow managed to draw a lot of controversies and received poor ratings and reviews after that. The scene of tortures and fights are over glorified and a few insensible tweets from lead actor Finn Jones ruined it completely. It was so hyped that it had the highest viewership on Premiere day ever by any series on Netflix.
3. Reservoir Dogs
It is one of the movies from the 90s that was put on Netflix and it attracted enough of controversies. The extreme violence of the movie was so realistic that it upset from of its audiences and drew heavy criticism. It is rated among top 50 best movies of Netflix till date.
4. The Snowtown Murders
It is a movie based on true story and it depicted the murder and sexual abuse scenes so vividly that the scenes became unbearable to watch. Even though it was received controversial statements from all across the world, it is still one of the most watched movies on Netflix till date. It is rated the Best Horror Movie on Netflix.
5. Sleeping Beauty
It is one of the most uneasy movies to watch. A girl named Lucy had to become an assistant of a lady to please her clients and always dresses in two pieces at the office. But this is just the beginning as things get creepy and messy and the depiction of somnophilia – sexual aroused by someone who is unconscious or murdered is beyond any level of humanity.
6. Antichrist
This is the most polarizing movie of all time in the history of Netflix. While the movie received critical acclaims, the audiences were seen walking out of the cinema halls as many thought this masterpiece to be a garbage. The actress received Best actress award in Cannes 2010.
7. Deliver Us From Evil
This is a documentary with disturbing content about a Father of a church and how he committed serious crimes and managed to survive without getting caught yet. Though some people say that it is a masterpiece worthy of an Oscar yet it is simply unwatchable.
8. We Need To Talk About Kevin
This is a famous series only for those who have the ability to watch it without breaking down. It is a psychological thriller and contains too many uncomfortable scenes to watch it at a stretch. Tilda Swinton received a Golden Globe nomination for the same.
9. Hostage To The Devil
This is another controversial show on a priest who believes that his demonic possession can give him more superpowers to control the world and do exorcism acts. The depiction of the character and event are too realistic to stay calm.
This list could be endless as there are many such creepy and controversial shows and movies that Netflix still stream. If you search for the above one to watch, it is totally up to you how you will feel after watching them.

Top 10… rookies that rocked WorldSBK: Part 2
Tuesday, 10 November 2020 09:18 GMT
The record-breakers, the silver medalists and the Champions that stole the show in their first year
With the sun setting on the 2020 MOTUL FIM Superbike World Championship, and with fast rookies showing their worth, it is time to glance back at history – both recent and beyond – and see who the best rookies were in WorldSBK. Enjoy Part 1 here, whilst enjoying who makes the cut for the top five below. Don't forget to join the conversation and give us your top ten across our social channels!
5.) Redding powers into WorldSBK with a bang: 2020
Coming into WorldSBK as reigning BSB champion, Scott Redding (ARUBA.IT Racing – Ducati) was out to take the crown at the first time of asking in 2020. Although it wasn't to be, it was a stellar year from Redding – five wins, nine other podiums (including three thirds in his first three races) and second overall to Jonathan Rea (Kawasaki Racing Team WorldSBK), Redding can look back at his year as a proud rookie. He even led the standings too, perhaps a sign of things to come in the future.
4.) Biaggi's quest for success begins: 2007
'The Roman Emperor' had eight seasons in the premier class of Grand Prix racing to take the title and didn't do it, but after a year out in 2006, where he tried to come to WorldSBK, he finally arrived in 2007 and in style. He won the first race of the year at Losail in Qatar and of his first 11, missed the podium just three times. Going into the final round at Magny-Cours with a gap of 29 to points leader Toseland after a Vallelunga win, Biaggi settled for third overall in his rookie year, a fine effort indeed.
3.) From a year learning to waterski to nearly walking on water for John Kocinski: 1996
From Little Rock in Arkansas, John Kocinski's unique way of going about business landed him in WorldSBK for 1996, after taking 1995 out to learn how to waterski. The 1990 250cc World Champion and 500cc GP winner erupted onto the scene with an immediate double win at Misano; three more wins would come along with seven other podiums and going into the season finale at Phillip Island, he had a chance of the title but would take third overall, before going one better in 1997.
2.) What could've been for Bautista: 2019
Not only had WorldSBK never seen anything like it but world motorsport never even considered it: Alvaro Bautista joined the grid in 2019 and instantly took victory not once, twice or even three times consecutively… 11! 11 wins to start off 2019 but he crashed heavily in the middle part of the year to finish a distant second to Jonathan Rea. Despite one of the biggest downfalls in motorsport history, Bautista's start to his rookie season was simply unbelievable and probably, unrepeatable. Majestic.
1.) Big Ben gets his Elbowz out: 2009
Ben Spies' talents were never in doubt but despite his three American Superbike titles in succession in the three years before, the 2009 season couldn't have been imaginable. Unbelievable bad luck, exquisite victories and pole records coming out of his ears, Ben Spies' year was crazy. From 88 points back at Kylami, Spies was the Championship leader by the Nurburgring, but title rival Noriyuki Haga wasn't done yet and the two went head-to-head for the showdown at Portimao. Spies took victory in Race 1, the title in Race 2 and in all of WorldSBK history, remains the only rookie World Champion.

Biografia
Frate dell'Ordine dei gesuati, nel 1668, con la soppressione dell'Ordine voluta da papa Clemente IX divenne prete secolare. Delfino e fedele allievo di Bonaventura Cavalieri, dal 1662 fino al 1697, anno della sua morte, insegnò all'Università di Padova. Fu l'unica voce autorevole di fine Seicento che continuò a difendere la teoria degli infinitesimi, in palese conflitto con i gesuiti.

Dal 1654 al 1667 si dedicò allo studio della geometria, continuando le ricerche di Cavalieri e di Evangelista Torricelli. Passò quindi alla meccanica, su cui spesso si trovò in conflitto con Giovanni Alfonso Borelli e con Giovanni Riccioli.

Video is poised to undergo a steep growth curve as workgroup or desktop systems find a sweet spot in businesses of all sizes. And this period of strong market adoption is characterised by technology evolution, greater industry co-operation and strategic alliances.
Niall Dunne, country manager for Ireland with Polycom sees strong growth in non-traditional spaces such as 'huddle rooms'.
"Companies are putting video systems into the middle of an open floor area, where the real work of the organisation is done, typically with small teams talking to other small teams.
"We're not going to do away with business travel but we want to give people a viable alternative with tools that allow them to work collaboratively across the globe. Small and medium-sized businesses want these tools, as do large enterprises," he said.
Polycom has developed technology to facilitate this workgroup-style approach and at a price point to suit most budgets. Its EagleEye Producer for example, is ideal for small huddle rooms and comes as a bolt on to the main video codec at an affordable price tag of €1,500.
"We've also launched Acoustic Bubble and Acoustic Fence, essentially creating an electronic fence around you and your work area so you can attenuate background noise," he said. "We can put a boundary microphone in place and once you step outside that, we'll cut that ambient noise out. It's great for open plan areas."
Smaller companies, who previously would have seen it as prohibitive to build dedicated video conferencing suites, are also adopting desktop level video.
"These solutions are typically cloud based, whether that's Avaya Scopia, Cisco Jabber or 'GoTo' type services and they're being driven by improvements on the network," said Enda Doyle, director of business development and innovation for eircom Business Solutions.
"With increasing broadband speeds and eFibre connectivity now available, there's more reliability on the network. We didn't have that a few short years ago and it's helping to fuel growth," he said.
Liam O'Brien, head of business product management with Vodafone also sees a shift away from large telepresence systems.
"We're moving to smaller, on premise solutions with a more compact form factor, high quality and a much better price point. We partner with Cisco and Avaya and see them responding to these market trends as part of technology evolution.
"Video is becoming more pervasive as price points come down. And this is helped by a move towards plug and play, quality solutions, which can be used in a desktop environment or even in a home office," he said.
O'Brien also sees a lot more integration of technologies between platforms allowing different systems to co-exist.
"The whole industry is going through a transition. We're all competing with each other but we're all partnering with each other too. Vodafone is making substantial investments in hosted solutions at a voice and video level but vendors like Cisco and Microsoft from a different part of the ecosystem are converging around collaboration of voice and video. At this point, we're probably collaborating but there's also a competitive edge," he said.
A case in point is Polycom's multi-year alliance with Microsoft, which involves the co-development of products, using Microsoft's Lync software layered on Polycom's hardware from room systems to personal desktop units.
"Polycom RealConnect boasts native integration into Microsoft Lync to book your meetings, so you don't step outside of the Microsoft workflow," said Dunne.
"You book your meeting online in Exchange. Lync users join via a hyperlink and we can do bi-directional content sharing. Traditionally, I could send you content but you couldn't send anything back. But now you can share your screens and content – there's no step change and people don't have to be re-trained.
"As we deliver that level of simplicity, video utilisation will be higher. For customers who have bought into the Microsoft stack, it's easier to deploy Polycom than any other vendor," he said.
Vodafone for its part will launch OneNet Business later this year, a converged multimedia proposition based on fixed, mobile and video. As a hosted platform, all endpoints effectively become the same with full integration to Microsoft Lync on the desktop but built on Vodafone core architecture.
"In our core network we're converging into one architecture across all access types, which opens up opportunities for more productivity, better ease of use and flexibility across devices. It's all part of one integrated system and represents significant capital investment," said O'Brien.
The company has also done a soft launch of Google for Work, incorporating Google Hangouts – an instant messaging and video chat application for mobile and tablet devices.
"We're launching this as part of our mid-market portfolio, for customers who are looking for easy to use email collaboration, document management and video. We recognise that Vodafone can't do everything itself so we partner with best of breed companies," he said.

What did I tell you in the last post? Didn't I say that I was betting on the underdog? Well you can hit me now – I changed my mind and didn't do anything about it. In my heart, I knew I should have taken the risk. I should have placed those bets.
Saturday night, as I was watching the fight on HBO PPV, I was mentally punching myself. From the start of round 1, it seemed that the underdog was no longer the underdog. As the fight progressed, it was clear who was going to win that fight. By round 7, it was starting to become ridiculous.
There was the Golden Boy who, at the peak of his career, was unbeatable. True, he is NOT at the peak right now and his opponent clearly is. Still, you would have expected so much more fight to have come out of someone like Oscar dela Hoya. He didn't become famous because of nothing!
I know that it was a disappointment to many DLH fans out there. Believe, I used to be one. That boy could fight! After this last fight with Manny Pacquiao, however, one simply has to think again. What happened to the shining Golden Boy?
