Eihei Dogen Kigen Zenji, the founder of Eihei-ji and patriarch of Soto Zen Buddhism in Japan, was born in 1200 C.E. Traveling to China as a young man, he devoted himself to Zen practice under the strict guidance of Nyojo Zenji(ch. Ju-Ching) at Mt. Tendo. Returning home in 1228, he dedicated his years to training followers in Zen practice as found within every action of daily life. He died in 1253 leaving a number of noted books including the Shobogenzo, Gakudo Yojinshu and Shinji Shobogenzo. The members of Treeleaf Zendo devote themselves to his teachings of Shikantaza ("Just Sitting").
Zuigaku Rempo Niwa Zenji, once abbot of the Tokei-in, the root temple of our lineage located i teh hills near Shizuoka, Japan, he later assumed the station of vice-abbot, then in 1985, that of the 77th abbot of Eihei-ji monastery, on of the two principal temples of the Soto school. Master Niwa received the imperial title of Jiko Enkai Zenji ( "Great Zen Master of Compassion, Ocean of Plentitude").
He died in 1993. Noted for his brush calligraphy, works by Master Niwa can be found under various pen names including Robai ("the old plum tree") and Baian ("the plum tree hermitage").
Gudo Wafu Nishijima has been practicing Zen Buddhism for over sixty years, is a teacher to Zen students from around the world, and a translator of Buddhist texts from Japanese and Sanskrit. A student of "Homeless" Kodo Sawaki, the itinerant master famous for his efforts to restore Zazen to its place as the center of Buddhist practice, Master Nishijima shares (with Jundo Cohen) in that philosophy. Master Nishijima was ordained and received Dharma Transmission from the late Master Rempo Niwa, abbot of Eihei-ji temple and head of the Soto school of Zen Buddhism. Gudo Nishijima has written many books on Buddhism in both Japanese and English, including ful translations of Master Dogen's Shobogenzo and Shinji Shobogenzo.
James Chigen Jundo Cohen, the founder of Treeleaf Zendo, was ordained and received Dharma Transmission from Gudo Wafu Nishijima. Jundo is a translator of Japanese and writer, and is a member of the American Zen Teachers Association and the Soto Zen Buddhist Association. He led sitting groups in Japan and the United States and currently Treeleaf Zendo located in Tsukuba, Japan. Jundo began Zen practice in 1980, has lived in Japan for most years since that time, and was for many years a lay student of Azuma Ikuo Roshi at Soji-ji Dai-Honzan. He is also a retired attorney, married to a lovely Japanese woman who is an Aiki-do practitioner, and is the father of (soon to be) two small children, and thus believes that the hard boarder between ordained priest and householder have long been vanishing in Soto Zen.
Rev. Pierre Taigu Turlur was born in France in 1964. A student of French language and literature, he formally made his profession in academia. Taigu started Zazen at the age of 13! He Received Shukke Tokudo in 1983, at the age of 18, from Rev. Mokusho Zeisler of the Deshimaru Lineage (AZI). After Rev. Zeisler's death, and the disagreeing with some rigidity and dogmatism in the AZI, he became a Sangha-less priest until eventually meeting Michael Chodo Cross in the Nishijima Lineage through reading the Nishijima-Cross translation of Master Dogen's Shobogenzo. Rev. Taigu received Dharma Transmission from Chodo Cross in 2002. After many twists and turns including long residence in England, he made it to Japan, where he now lives in Nishinomiya near Osaka. He lives teaching French, although he is known as a regular sight in front of local train stations engaging in Takuhatsu with his begging bowl.
He loves Japanese calligraphy and regularly practices brush work. He also enjoys sewing and mending Buddhist robes, Kesa in the Nyohoe style and writing cheap poetry among ten thousand other things. He is devoted to Kannon, Jizo and everything ordinary.

Robotics, AI, and basic IoT digitization is the technology that will be needed to design smart factories. Abundant data and smart robotics will magnify a factorys output, while minimizing costs and defects.
Now, with connectivity, controls, process integration and automation, job shops and manufacturers can harness more uptime from their CNCs. Visit more than 350 companies in the Metal Cutting Pavilion.
The use of technology to expand health and safety in the workplace is effective and significant. There are fewer uses of technology that are more important than the improved safety of the workers.
Last year, I wrote about the Common Mistakes That Growing Manufacturers Make (June 2017). Well, here are a few more examples of how manufacturers can avoid serious problems and reduce risks, costs, and streamline their business processes.
For decades, we have seen jobs in manufacturing disappearing, but now the jobs are beginning to come back, because technology is helping to produce high-quality goods in the U.S. as inexpensively as in Asia.
The productive manufacturers of the future will be those who can adjust to the advanced change in sourcing, production and distribution, and are responsive and adaptable enough to take advantage of new logistical technologies.
3D printing is becoming the standard in preparing for surgical procedures, using patient-specific models, and implanting devices and tissue during the operation with the help of surgical guides.
More than a technological revolution, the connected factory is a total reorganization of the approach to production, using existing tools and placing a greater reliance on networks.
Predictive manufacturing systems allow users transparency in operations. The basis of a predictive manufacturing system is the smart software, which is used to control predictive modeling functionalities.
Is Next-Shoring the New Frontier in Manufacturing?
Next shoring involves moving a companys production capacity to where the market for the goods is. For U.S. centered companies, serving American markets, this is the same as reshoring, as reshoring entails moving production capacity back to the U.S. to meet production demands in U.S. markets.
As many manufacturers dont have large IT departments, employing each of SMACs four components is a good way to propel production toward growth and increased efficiency. The four components are: Social, Mobility, Analytics, and Cloud.
Is Just in Time Manufacturing for you?
The JIT system can be especially helpful to small businesses that are just starting out, since it can reduce the amount of capital required to get the business up and running and avoids the business tying up money in unneeded inventory.
Management might not think that it could happen, but too much growth can overwhelm a manufacturer, as the business breaks down under the stress of expansion. Growth is good, but slow growth is best.
Traditionally, raw materials and inventory of finished goods were considered assets. This notion has changed because of JIT and now inventory is considered as waste or dead investment, incurring additional costs.

Trump's push to ignore climate costs generates a backlash in court, slowing some projects
By Evan Halper
Oct. 4, 2017 4 AM PT
Reporting from WASHINGTON —
There is little question that expansion of the Bull Mountain coal mine in Montana would help nudge the Earth's temperature upward.
Under a plan supported by the Trump administration, the mine would yield 15 million tons of coal each year, which would send potent bursts of climate-warming emissions into the atmosphere as the coal is burned in power plants worldwide.
The White House has ordered federal agencies not to calculate the cost to society of coping with the extra global warming a project of that sort would cause.
The order was meant to keep projects like this mine moving forward. But the administration's out-of-sight, out-of-mind approach to climate science has started backfiring in court.
The expansion at Bull Mountain has been blocked by a federal judge who ordered regulators to figure out the climate impact of the mine and what it might cost the economy, before moving any further in the approval process. The holdup now threatens coal jobs.
"The injunction has the potential to put as many as 160 people out of work," Bradley Hanson, chief executive of Signal Peak Energy, the company that runs the mine, wrote in a recent court filing.
Other big energy projects, including even bigger coal mines and a major gas pipeline, are confronting similar barriers as a result of judges' impatience with the administration's resistance to even thinking about climate change. Federal law doesn't allow officials to simply ignore climate impacts, the courts have begun to rule.
"The courts have been clear that if you are going to consider the economic benefits of a project, you have to consider the climate costs," said Michael Burger, executive director of the Sabin Center for Climate Change Law at Columbia University. Those climate costs can quickly overshadow the economic benefits.
The Obama administration sought to estimate climate costs by directing federal agencies to calculate what officials referred to as the social cost of carbon. The rule required agencies to consider the impact of global warming in all big environmental decisions, using a formula that seeks to estimate the cost of effects as varied as lost days of work and school and potential spikes in asthma-related emergency room visits.
Agencies were supposed to consider the expense of having to use the air conditioning more when temperatures rise, as well as the potential savings from turning on the heat less.
In March, Trump ordered federal officials to scrap the whole thing.
The administration was trying to avoid the sort of result that the U.S. Forest Service encountered in 2015 when it tried to open up parts of the North Fork area of western Colorado to coal mining. Federal courts forced the agency to consider the project's costs, and when officials grudgingly complied, they had to reveal that the project would probably be a net loser, costing the economy hundreds of millions of dollars — and possibly as much as $3 billion.
"These are the things the agencies want to sweep under the rug," said Ted Zukoski, the attorney who sued the Forest Service over the Colorado permit for the environmental group Earthjustice. "They are afraid to be honest about the costs because they are huge."
Even before Trump arrived, agencies were reluctant to embrace a formula that raised doubts about some of their decisions. All the projects getting disrupted in court now began during the Obama administration. But the White House then was working to push the bureaucracy along.
Now, by contrast, the administration is seeking to promote energy projects. But the decision to scrap the carbon accounting, done at the behest of fossil fuel companies and think tanks funded by them, has started to create new headaches for the very projects it was intended to help.
Plans for the Sabal Trail pipeline, which would send 1 billion cubic feet of natural gas daily from Alabama to central Florida, have been sidetracked after the Sierra Club and others sued over the refusal of regulators to inventory climate impacts. In August, the federal appeals court in Washington, D.C., admonished the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission for neglecting a legal obligation to catalog climate costs.
The reluctance of regulators to account for global warming also moved judges on the Denver-based U.S. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals last month to order the Bureau of Land Management to reconsider its decisions on coal leases in Wyoming's Powder River Basin. The agency had argued that extending leases that account for 20% of the nation's coal production would not contribute to warming because the same amount of coal would be mined someplace else if the leases were rejected.
"The Trump administration is not doing any favors to its agencies and their ability to bring energy projects to approval," said Jason Schwartz, legal director at the Institute for Policy Integrity at New York University. "This issue is going to come up again and again."
The administration does ultimately intend to calculate climate costs. But the formula it is developing is almost certain to peg the economic costs of greenhouse gases as far lower than the $45 per ton that the Obama administration estimated. Among those who have lobbied for such a change are the Competitive Enterprise Institute and the American Energy Alliance, groups prominent in the network of nonprofits funded by fossil fuel billionaires Charles and David Koch and their affiliates.
The groups, which dispute mainstream climate science, have charged that the Obama administration formula inflates the warming-associated economic costs of projects by more than 80%. Pursuing that view could plunge energy projects into yet more legal uncertainty.
Meantime, the demand for a robust accounting of climate costs is intensifying.
In Montana, where the Western Environmental Law Center managed to delay the expansion of the Bull Mountain mine, the summer wildfire season was brutal. Tourists had to be evacuated from Glacier National Park as fire encroached, and the air quality in Missoula County's Seeley Lake dropped to hazardous levels. Residents had thought they were in the clear after a wet winter. But then came a new phenomenon in Montana: the flash drought.
Although Montana has always had wildfires, scientists attribute their increased frequency to warming. The state is warming faster than others, according to a new study led by the Montana Institute on Ecosystems, a project of the state's public university. And the warming is disrupting Montana's water systems, forests and agriculture, according to the report.
"This year was just horrendous," said Harold Hoem, 80, a Missoulan who was a smokejumper fighting fires in the 1950s. Now, he is the president of Montana Elders for a Livable Tomorrow, one of the groups demanding the Trump administration account for the climate impacts of the local coal mining expansion. "There are a heck of a lot of people here who are now connecting the dots between fossil fuel burning and what we ended up with with these fires."
"There are always people who want to deny things," Hoem said. "But once it hits you, you sure become a believer quick."

Instead of meatballs this time it's aubergine balls! They're very tasty and, I must say, rather addictive… maybe because of the cheddar inside?  The recipe requires a little bit more time than my usual standard because you need to boil the aubergine first before being able to start making the balls. But it's still very easy to prepare (and it's fried, I'm no nasty!).
roll in bread crumbs and fry.

Welcome to the Geometridae campaign of the Lepidoptera Barcode of Life.
The moth family Geometridae, whose members are also known as loopers, is the second most species-rich family of Lepidoptera worldwide. Since this megadiverse family includes specialists inhabiting all ecological niches, they are well established as a model group for numerous biodiversity assessments in temperate and tropical regions. Including many pest species, the family is also economically very important for agriculture and forest management. Adult specimens are small to medium-sized (wingspan of 0.7 – 12 cm), and usually cryptically colored. They are mostly nocturnal; their resting position is typically 'planiform', i.e. with wings lying flat on the substrate. Although geometrids occur everywhere except in the Antarctic, their diversity peaks in tropical South America, Africa and South-east Asia. Because of the destruction and fragmentation of their habitats, large parts of this mega-diverse fauna may be at risk of extinction.
Geometrid taxonomy is well developed for temperate regions, but urgently requires further large-scale revisions for tropical areas. Nearly 23,000 valid species have been described to date and a comprehensive, updated checklist is posted on this website (Scoble and Hausmann 2007) based on a previously published catalogue (Scoble 1999). Although there is no comprehensive morphology-based phylogeny available for the whole family, the relationships between subfamilies and many tribes were recently assessed from the analysis of several nuclear genes (Young 2006; Yamamoto and Sota 2007; Regier et al. 2009), largely confirming the traditional classification derived from morphological traits, but also bringing new evidence to the higher classification of these moths.
The global DNA barcoding campaign for the world fauna of Geometridae was initiated in December 2006 as one of the first global campaigns in Lepidoptera. Many world experts for this family are involved with the Forum Herbulot (www.geometridae.de) playing a crucial role in providing samples and contributing taxonomic expertise toward the goal of assembling a comprehensive reference library. Crystallizing and diffusing that expertise around the globe, this effort will enable reliable species identification of any species, anywhere, at any stage of its development. The campaign is quickly progressing, with current rates of 2,000 to 3,000 additional species per year. The massive amount of newly generated genetic data represents an invaluable source of information that complements other sets of characters, making it possible to address many existing taxonomic questions, synonymies, and revealing many new cases of overlooked or cryptic diversity.


Anyone who knows me will tell you my political views lean so far to the left that I'm nearly falling over and I'm a firm believer in a free and impartial trial but I have to admit after listening to this recording even I was left thinking what a coward. If a lynch mob had of walked by my house at the time I would have helped them carry the rope!
Let's hope when it finally does go to trial the Italian court system manages to find an unbiased jury.

Nature can tell many stories about creatures and spirits, living in forests and hiding under stones. The trees and plants seem to talk and to change places. They can confuse wanderers and make them lose their way in the greens.
J.F. Schwarzlose tells the tales that lie in between the obvious.The creation of perfume is an art that has a story to tell; an individual story for every person who wears our Parfum Captives – they will enchant the wearer along with their surroundings.
The structure of every Parfum Captive consists of a spicy base, a core natural ingredient and a unique "MANE Captive". As a base Véronique used an accord of newly developed "MANE spices", as heart a natural oil and for perfection a unique "MANE Captive".
This unique composition, which is found in all three Parfum Captives elevates them onto a new level of olfactive craftsmanship and forms a harmonious line.
For the launch of this specific trilogy of the JFS Parfum Captives focus is on the qualitative aspect of all packaging elements. Through technologies like the semi-automatic production of glass, which allows precision and great glass flow or to handcrafted boxes with high-end finishes such as hotfoil embossing and gloss varnishing unique products have been created.

War of Anti-Christ with the Church - Rev. G. E. Dillon
Napoleon and Freemasonry
The leader who arose out of the first French Revolution, and whose military and diplomatic fame is still fresh in the recollection of many of the present generation—that leader was Napoleon Bonaparte. In the days of his greatest prosperity, nothing was so distasteful to him as to be reminded of his Jacobin past. He then wished to pose as another Charlemagne or Rudolph of Hapsburg. He wished to be considered the friend of religion and of the Catholic religion in particular. He did something for the restoration of the Church in France, but it was as little as he could help. It, perhaps, prevented a more wholesome and complete reaction in favor of the true religious aspirations of the population. It was done grudgingly, parsimoniously, and meanly. And when it had been done, Napoleon did all he could to undo its benefits. He soon became the persecutor—the heartless, cruel, ungrateful persecutor of the Pontiff, and an opponent to the best interests of religion in France, and in every country which had the misfortune to fall under his sway.
The reason for all this was, that Napoleon had commenced his career as a Freemason, and a Freemason he remained in spirit and in effect to the end of his life. It is known that he owed his first elevation to the Jacobins and that his earliest patron was Robespierre. His first campaign in Italy was characterized by the utmost brutality which could gratify Masonic hatred for the Church. He suppressed the abodes of the consecrated servants of God, sacked churches, cathedrals, and sanctuaries, and reduced the Pope to the direst extremities. His language was the reflex of his acts and of his heart. His letters breathe everywhere the spirit of advanced Freemasonry, gloating over the wounds it had been able to inflict upon the Spouse of Christ.
Yet this adventurer has, with great adroitness, been able to pass with many, and especially in Ireland, as a good Catholic. Because he was the enemy of England, or rather that England led by the counsels of Pitt and Burke, constituted herself the implacable enemy of the Revolution of which he was the incarnation and continuation, many opposed to England for political reasons, regard Bonaparte as a kind of hero. No one can doubt the military genius of the man nor indeed his great general ability; but he was in all his acts what Freemasonry made him. He was mean, selfish, tyrannical, and cruel. He was reckless of blood. He could tolerate or use the Church while that suited his policy. But he had from the beginning to the very end of his career that thorough indifference to her welfare, and want of belief in her doctrines, which an early and life-long connection with the Illuminati inspired. Father Deschamps writes of him:—
"Napoleon Bonaparte was in effect an advanced Freemason, and his reign has been the most flourishing epoch of Freemasonry. During the reign of terror the Grand Orient ceased its activity. The moment Napoleon seized power the lodges were opened in every place."
I have said that the revolutionary rulers in France were all Illuminati—that is Freemasons of the most pronounced type—whose ultimate aim was the destruction of every existing religion and form of secular government, in order to found an atheistic, social republic, which would extend throughout the world and embrace all mankind. Freemasonry welcomes, as we have seen, the Mahommedan, the Indian, the Chinese, and the Buddhist, as well as the Christian and the Jew. It designs to conquer all, as a means of bringing all into the one level of Atheism and Communism. When, therefore, its Directory, in their desire to get rid of Napoleon, planned the expedition to Egypt and Asia, they meant the realization of a part of this program, as well as the removal of a troublesome rival. A universal monarchy is, in their idea, the most efficacious means for arriving at a universal republic. Once obtained, the dagger with which they removed Gustavus III of Sweden, or the guillotine by which they rid France of Louis XVI, can at any moment remove Caesar and call in Brutus. They are not the men to recoil before deeds of blood for the accomplishment of their purposes.
Now Napoleon, who was, as Father Deschamps informs us, a member of the lodge of the Templars, the extreme Illuminated lodge of Lyons, and had given proof of his fidelity to Masonry in Italy, was the very man to extend the rule of Republicanism throughout Asia. He appeared in Egypt with the same professions of hypocritical respect for the Koran, the Prophet, and Mahommedanism, as he afterwards made when it suited his policy for Catholicism. His address to the people of Egypt will prove this. It ran as follows, with true Masonic hypocrisy:—
"Cadis, Chieks, Imans, tell the people that we are the friends of true Mussulmen; that we respect more than the Mamelukes do, God, His Prophet, and the Alkoran. Is it not we who have destroyed the Pope, who wished that war should be made against the Mussulman? Is it not we who have destroyed the Knights of Malta, because these madmen thought that God willed them to make war upon the Mussulman? Is it not we who have been, in all ages the friends of the Grand Seigneur—may God fulfil his desires—and the enemy of his enemies. God is God, and Mahomet is his Prophet! Fear nothing above all for the religion of the Prophet, which I love."
The cool hypocrisy of this address is manifested by a proclamation he made on that occasion to his own soldiers. The same proclamation also shows the value we may place on his protestations of attachment to, and respect for, the usages of Christianity. The following is a translation of it:—
"Soldiers! the peoples with whom we are about to live are Mahommedan. The first article of their faith is this: 'There is no God but God, and Mahomet is his Prophet.' Do not contradict them. Act with them as you have acted with the Jews and with the Italians. Have the same respect for their Muftis and their Imans, as you have had for Rabbis and Bishops. Have for the ceremonies prescribed by the Alkoran, for the Mosques, the same tolerance you had for Convents, for Synagogues, and for the religion of Moses and of Jesus Christ."
We read in the correspondence of Napoleon I, published by order of Napoleon III (vol. v., pp. 185, 191, 241), what he thought of this proclamation at the very end of his career:—
"After all, it was not impossible that circumstances might have brought me to embrace Islam," he said at St. Helena. "Could it be thought that the Empire of the East, and perhaps the subjection of the whole of Asia, was not worth a turban and pantaloons, for it was reduced to so much solely. We would lose only our breeches and our hats. I say that the army, disposed as it was, would have lent itself to that project undoubtedly, and it saw in it nothing but a subject for laughter and pleasantry. Meanwhile, you see the consequences. I took Europe by a back stroke. The old civilization was beaten down, and who then thought to disturb the destinies of our France and the regeneration of the world? Who had dared to undertake it? Who could have accomplished it?"
Neither prosperity nor adversity changed Napoleon. He was a skeptic to the end. He said at St. Helena to Las Cases:
"Everything proclaims the existence of a God—that is not to be doubted—but all our religions are evidently the children of men.
"Why do these religions cry down one another, combat one another? Why has that been in all ages, and all places? It is because men are always men. It is because the Priests have always insinuated, slipped in lies and fraud everywhere.
"Nevertheless, from the moment that I had the power, I had been eager to re-establish religion. I used it as the base and the root. It was in my eyes the support of good morality, of true principles, of good manners.
"I am assuredly far from being an Atheist; but I cannot believe all that they teach me in spite of my reason, under penalty of being deceitful and hypocritical.
"To say whence I come, what I am, where I go, is above my ideas. And nevertheless all that is, I am the watch which exists and does not know itself.
"No doubt, my spirit of mere doubt was, in my quality of Emperor, a benefit for the people Otherwise how could I equally favor sects so contrary, if I had been dominated over by one alone? How could I preserve the independence of my thoughts and of my movements under the suggestions of a confessor who could govern me by means of the fear of hell.
"What an empire could not a wicked man, the most stupid of men, under that title of confessor, exercise over those who govern nations?
"I was so penetrated with these truths that I preserved myself well to act in such a manner, that, in as far as it lay in me, I would educate my son in the same religious lines in which I found myself."
Two months later the ex-Emperor said that from the age of thirteen he had lost all religious faith.
Thiers (Histoire du Consulat et de l'Empire, iv. p. 14), says that when Napoleon intended to proclaim himself Emperor, he wished to give the Masons a pledge of his principles, and that he did this by killing the Duke d'Enghien. He said,
"They wish to destroy the Revolution in attacking it in my person. I will defend it, for I am the Revolution. I, myself—I, myself. They will so consider it from this day forward, for they will know of what we are capable."
A less brave but still more accomplished relative of his, Napoleon III, in his Idees Napoleoniennes, says:—
"The Revolution dying, but not vanquished, left to Napoleon the accomplishments of its last designs. Enlighten the nations it would have said to him. Place upon solid bases the principal result of our efforts. Execute in extent that which I have done in depth. Be for Europe what I have been for France. That grand mission Napoleon accomplished even to the end."
Alexander Dumas in the introduction to his Memoirs of Garibaldi tells us:—
"Illuminism and Freemasonry, these two great enemies of royalty, and the adopted device of both of which was L. P. D., lilia pedibus destrue, had a grand part in the French Revolution.
"Napoleon took Masonry under his protection. Joseph Napoleon was Grand Master of the Order, Joachim Murat second Master adjoint. The Empress Josephine being at Strasbourg, in 1805, presided over the fete for the adoption of the lodge of True Chevaliers of Paris. At the same time Eugene de Beauharnais was Venerable of the lodge of St. Eugene in Paris. Having come to Italy with the title of Viceroy, the Grand Orient of Milan named him Master and Sovereign Commander of the Supreme Council of the thirty-second grade, that is to say, accorded him the greatest honor which could be given him according to the Statutes of the Order. Bernadotte was a Mason. His son Oscar was Grand Master of the Swedish lodge. In the different lodges of Paris were successively initiated, Alexander, Duke of Wurtemburg; the Prince Bernard of Saxe-Weimar, even the Persian Ambassador, Askeri Khan. The President of the Senate, Count de Lacipede, presided over the Grand Orient of France, which had for officers of honor the Generals Kellerman, Messina, and Soult. Princes, Ministers, Marshals, Officers, Magistrates, all the men, in fine, remarkable for their glory or considerable by their position, ambitioned to be made Masons. The women even wished to have their lodges into which entered Mesdames de Vaudemont, de Carignan, de Gerardin, de Narbonne and many other ladies."
Frere Clavel, in his picturesque history of Freemasonry, says that —
"Of all these high personages the Prince Cambaceres was the one who most occupied himself with Masonry. He made it his duty to rally to Masonry all the men in France who were influential by their official position, by their talent, or by their fortune. The personal services which he rendered to many of the brethren, the eclat which he caused to be given to the lodges in bringing to their sittings by his example and invitations all those illustrious amongst the military and judicial professions and others, contributed powerfully to the fusion of parties and to the consolidation of the imperial throne. In effect under his brilliant and active administration the lodges multiplied ad infinitum. They were composed of the elect of French society. They became a point of reunion for the partisans of the existing and of passed regimes. They celebrated in them the feasts of the Emperor. They read in them the bulletins of his victories before they were made public by the press, and able men organized the enthusiasm which gradually took hold of all minds."
When Napoleon obtained power, it was we know principally by means of the Illuminated Freemason Talleyrand. By him and his confederates of the Illuminati, Napoleon was recalled from Egypt and placed in the way of its attainment. His brothers were—every one of them—deep in the secrets of the Sect. Its supreme hidden directory saw that a reaction had set in, which if not averted, would speedily lead to the return of the exiled Bourbons, and to the disgorgement of ill-gotten goods on the part of the revolutionists. As a lesser evil, therefore, and as a means of forwarding the unification of Europe which they had planned, by his conquests, they placed supreme power in the hands of Bonaparte and urged him on in his career, watching, at the same time, closely, their own opportunities for the development of the deadly designs of the Sect. Then, they obtained the first places in his Empire for themselves. They put as much mischief into the measures of relief given to conscience as they could. They established a fatal supremacy for secularism in the matter of education. They brought dissension between the Pope and the Emperor. They caused the second confiscation of the States of the Church. They caused and continued to the end, the imprisonment of Pius VII. They were at the bottom of every attack made by Napoleon while Emperor upon the rights of the Church, the freedom and independence of the Supreme Pontiff, and the well-being of religion.
But the chief mistake of Napoleon was the encouragement he gave to Freemasonry. It served his purpose admirably for a while, that is so long as he served the present and ultimate views of the conspiracy; for a conspiracy Masonry ever was and ever will be. Even if Cambaceres, Talleyrand, Fouche, and the old leaders of the Illuminati, whom he had taken into his confidence and richly rewarded, should be satisfied, there was a mass of others whom no reward could conciliate, and who, filled with the spirit of the Sect, were sure to be ever on the lookout for the means to advance the designs of Weishaupt and his inner circle.
That inner circle never ceased its action. It held the members of the Sect, whom it not only permitted but assisted to attain high worldly honors, completely in its power, and hence in absolute subjection. For them as well as for the humblest member of the secret conclave, the poisoned aqua tophona and the dagger were ready to do the work of certain death should they lack obedience to those depraved fanatics of one diabolical idea, who were found worthy to be selected by their fellow conspirators to occupy the highest place of infamy and secret power. These latter scattered secretly amidst the rank and file of the lodges, hundreds of Argus-eyed, skilled plotters, who kept the real power of inner or high Masonry in the hands of its hidden masters.
Masonry from this secret vantage ground ceaselessly conspired during the Empire. It assisted the conquest of the victor of Austerlitz and Jena; and if Deschamps, who quotes from the most reliable sources, is to be trusted, it actually did more for these victories than the great military leader himself. Through its instrumentality the resources of the enemies of Napoleon were never at hand, the designs of the Austrian and other generals opposed to him were thwarted, treason was rife in their camps, and information fatal to their designs was conveyed to the French commander. Masonry was then on his side, and as now the secret resources of the Order, its power of hidden influence and espionage were placed at the disposal of the cause it served.
But when Masonry had reason to fear that Napoleon's power might be perpetuated; when his alliance with the Imperial Family of Austria, and above all, when the consequence of that alliance, an heir to his throne, caused danger to the universal republic it could otherwise assure itself of at his death; when, too, he began to show a coldness for the sect, and sought means to prevent it from the propagandism of its diabolical aims, then it became his enemy, and his end was not far off.
Distracting councils prevailed in his cabinet. His opponents began to get information regarding his movements, which he had obtained previously of theirs. Members of the sect urged on his mad expedition to Moscow; his resources were paralyzed; and he was, in one word, sold by secret, invisible foes into the hands of his enemies. In Germany, Weishaupt and his party, still living on in dark intrigue, prepared secretly for his downfall. His generals were beaten in detail. He was betrayed, hoodwinked, and finally led to his deposition and ruin. He then received with a measure, pressed down and overflowing, and shaken together, the gratitude of the father of lies, incarnate in Freemasonry, in the Illuminati, and kindred Atheist secret societies. Banished to Elba he was permitted to return to France only in order to meet the fate of an outcast and a prisoner upon the rock of St. Helena, where he died abandoned and persecuted by the dark Sect which had used, abused, and betrayed him. So it has continued, as we shall see, to use, to abuse, and to betray every usurper or despot whom it lures into its toils.
[Footnote 1: Deschamps says that it was at this period that the order of the Templars (for Masonry is divided into any amount of rites which exercise one over the other a kind of influence in proportion to the members of the inner grades which they contain) was resuscitated in France. It publicly interred one of its members from the Church of St. Antoine. The funeral oration of Jacques Molay was publicly pronounced. Napoleon permitted this. The danger his permission created was foreseen, and M. de Maistre writes:—"A very remarkable phenomenon is that of the resuscitation of Freemasonry in Prance, so far, that a brother has been interred solemnly in Paris with all the attributes and ceremonies of the order. The Master who reigns in France does not leave it to be even suspected that such a thing can exist in France without his leave. Judging from his known character and from his ideas upon secret societies, how then can the thing be explained? Is he the Chief, or dupe, or perhaps the one and the other of a society which he thinks he knows, and which mocks him."]
[Footnote 2: Illustrating these remarks we have the comments of M. Bagot in his Cades des Franc-Mayans, p. 183:— "The Imperial Government took advantage of its omnipotence, to which so many men, so many institutions, yielded so complacently, in order to dominate over Masonry. The latter became neither afraid nor revolted. What did it desire in effect? To extend its empire—"It permitted itself to become subject to despotism in order to become sovereign." This gives us the whole reason why Masonry first permitted Napoleon to rule, then to reign, then to conquer, and finally to fall.]

As She Should: Megan Thee Stallion Reportedly Files To Trademark 'Hot Girl Summer'
After learning The Alphabet Song as a little girl, Kiana Lede would always "get in trouble" for singing during class. "My mom was like, 'why can't you focus?'" she laughs while reminiscing on her career's formative years. "I was like, 'I don't know! Songs are just playing in my head all the time!'"
Whilst sitting in a shoebox-sized room at Midtown Manhattan's Moxy Hotel on a humid September day, the now- 21-year-old Arizona-bred R&B songbird, actress and pianist speculates that she "may have had ADD." However, she settles down after taking off her white cowboy boots and flops down on the ivory-clothed bed, demonstrating that her fiery Aries energy can be contained. Cool as a cucumber, Lede shuffles between chewing on banana candies and blowing smoke rings after taking drags from a pen, all while musing about her journey to becoming a Republic Records signee.
"I just grew up singing and doing musical theater, and reading a lot of books, and playing piano way too much in my room by myself," she says, pushing her big, curly brown hair out of her face. Her expressive green eyes widen as she grins. "It was my thing. Nobody in my family does music, just me."
New Music Friday: R&B Releases From Mariah Carey, Usher, DIXSON, And More Kick Off Fall 2022
After winning Kidz Bop's 2011 KIDZ Star USA talent contest at 14 (which her mother secretly entered her into), Lede was signed to RCA Records. She was released from her contract and dropped from the label three years later. However, thanks to guidance and friendship from the Grammy-winning production duo Rice N' Peas, (who've worked with G-Eazy, Trevor Jackson, and Bazzi), she released covers of songs such as Drake's "Hotline Bling" while working to get her groove back. The latter rendition resulted in Republic Record's Chairman and CEO Monte Lipman flying her out and signing her to his label.
"I got a second chance, which a lot of people don't get," she reveals. "So I'm really happy that that all happened. I wouldn't be here right now in this room if that didn't happen."
Thanks to the new opportunity she was given, Lede's sound has evolved into something she's proud of—equal parts soul, R&B and bohemian. As evidenced by the aforementioned ensemble, glimmers of each aesthetic can be found when observing her personal style as well. She released her seven-song EP Selfless in July, which features the bedroom-ready "Show Love" and "Fairplay," which manages to fit in the mainstream R&B vein while also showcasing her goosebump-inducing vocals. The remix of the latter features MC A$AP Ferg. What pleases her most is that it not only garnered a favorable response from fans, but that those listeners found it so relatable.
"As an artist, it's really nerve-wracking for someone who writes about such personal things all the time," she says. "Just the fact that it is my story… It's good to know that other people know that there's somebody on their side, and they're not the only ones going through it. A lot of people obviously feel this way, and have been through this same thing that I've been through. So I think that's cool."
Although she moved to various places as a Navy serviceman's daughter, Lede claims Phoenix as home. This means she hails from the same stomping grounds as rockers Alice Cooper, Stevie Nicks and the late Chester Bennington of Linkin Park. However, growing up in a mixed race household gave way to tons of sonic exploration outside of the rock-heavy scene.
"My dad's black, and both of my parents are from the East Coast," she says of her musical and ethnic upbringing (she's black, Latina and Native American). "[My parents] listened to a lot of R&B. My mom listened to a lot of SWV, TLC, Boyz II Men. I didn't realize I knew the songs until I got older. I played a charity show with T-Boz, and I was like 'why do I know these songs?'" Lede also says her father was a fan of neo-soul and gangsta rap, but she personally believes the early-2000s was the best time for music.
"[That era] influences a lot of my music subconsciously, and also, singer-songwriter stuff," she continues. "I listen to a lot of early-2000s music because I played piano most of my life. I listened to Sara Bareilles, John Mayer."
An open book, Lede details some of her struggles with anxiety and depression with the utmost candor. After being dropped from RCA, her trust in people diminished, and she experienced long bouts of depression after being sexually assaulted by someone in the industry. The track that she feels most deeply about is "One Of Them Days," which tackles these issues head-on.
"When I'm anxious and depressed, it's really hard to be happy," Lede says. "Most of the time, I can do it, but there are just some days where I literally can't separate the anxiety, and I can't tell anybody why, because I don't really know why myself… I was feeling very odd that day, didn't even know if I could write a song. Hue [Strother], the guy who I wrote the song with, he was like 'I totally get you. Lots of people go through this.'''
As we've observed in headlines recently, mental health and being honest about life's trickier situations can help someone going through the same thing, and Lede hopes her music provides encouragement to those who are struggling. As for how she's learning to push through her mental health roadblocks, she meditates, runs, and is an advocate for therapy, especially in Trump's America, where harrowing news reports dominate the cycle.
Another hallmark of Kiana Lede's personality is her bleeding heart for others. She cites women of color, sexual assault victims and the homeless youth specifically as individuals she feels most responsible to help, since she is personally connected to all three. While she's aiming to create a project that helps homeless youth specifically, she's working hard this holiday season to ensure that they have a place to stay "at least for the night" after horrific wildfires displaced many individuals in California.
"My passion is really people. Music is just a way that I can get to helping people," she says with a grin. "Helping people emotionally and physically are both very important. I never want to stop helping people. I feel if other people can respect me, and I can respect myself, then I'll be happy. Happiness is all that we strive for."
Recently, Lede played her first headlining solo show, a one-night event at The Mint in Los Angeles. While she was thrilled to see that the show sold-out, she was even happier to see the faces of her audience members, who she said 'looked like [her].' "Mixed girls, brown girls, black girls, gay boys," she explains over-the-phone. Even though she wasn't in person to discuss her latest huge accomplishment, you could hear the pride and joy through her voice.
As for the future of her career, she's looking forward to more acting roles. You may recognize her from the first season of MTV's Scream, and after her recent Netflix series All About The Washingtons with legendary MC Rev Run was cancelled, she has been "reading for auditions" and is "negotiating" for a role in a film set to shoot in NYC. While her time with the Run-DMC frontman was brief, she says he taught her about the importance of "not compromising your art for money."
What Kiana Lede is most excited about, of course, is making music. She hopes to work on a new EP and then release an album after that. The ultimate goal is to fully realize the dreams in her personal and professional life, and she assures she's just getting started.
"I want to be able to look back on my career and think 'man, I really poured my heart into this music, and made music that mattered, and made music that made people feel a certain way, whether it's bad, good, sad, anxious, whatever it may be.'"

Fly Brave was created in January of 2016 in response to a need for continued support for adults with developmental disabilities following the school years.

When my son John, who has non-verbal autism, was aging out of the school system at 22 years old, I began searching for programs to continue his growth and steps to independence into adulthood. Coming up short, I left my career behind to build a foundation for John and others like him in our community, to build upon their strengths and talents to live a purpose filled life. I could not do this alone. It is with a dedicated Board of Directors, community members, and parent volunteers who share the same vision, that we celebrate our third year of operation.
You can say we grew up together as I was just 22 years old when he was diagnosed at 18 months of age. Although I was a single mom who worked full time and attended college at night, my quest to fill every free hour with giving John a purpose filled life was a priority. When he was diagnosed, I went through a roller coaster ride of emotions. However, I didn't sit there long. I got up and became pro-active in making sure he experienced everything life had to offer. I joined a parent support group where I met a therapist who told me the best thing I could do for him was to immerse him in the world; to give him every life experience possible to help him navigate through the world of autism. I took that information to heart and over the next 22 years we would become explorers.
We found his gift of running in 2014 when we were out for a walk and stumbled upon a high school track. John experienced the normal pains of puberty and our evening strolls gave him a sense of calm. However, this time he was different. After running around that track several times, his anxiety lessened and instead of getting up throughout the night, he slept a full 8 hours uninterrupted.
He joined the Sacramento County Chargers Special Olympics Track and Field team and wowed the community with his 5 minute mile. He went on to run in 5/10k races and his dream got bigger, to run in the Boston Marathon. He began running half marathons, 20 milers and eventually his first full marathon, CIM, (California International Marathon), on Dec 3, 2017, in hopes to Boston qualify.
John sustained a broken ankle during the marathon around mile 6. Yet, he was determined to finish and he did. Despite his injury, he qualified for the Boston Marathon, completing the 26.2 mile race in 4 hours and 27 minutes.
On December 2, 2018, John ran CIM once again to upgrade his time for Boston and finished in 3:17!
John ran the 2019 Boston Marathon on April 15th, in 3:52; sponsored by Total Nutrition and coached by Darren Morgan, Fleet Feet Racing.
John reached Boston and he isn't done. He is just getting started. He has turned his passion for running into a professional career. His next race is the 2020 Marine Corp Marathon in Washington D.C.
He receives messages of encouragement and appreciation all over the world. His story is one of hope and inspiration and his message remains the same, he is first a runner, who happens to have non-verbal autism. He holds a job, has found love with girlfriend Drea and is a professional athlete.
John's words to you (as he uses sign language) is this; "You can do anything you put your mind to, regardless of your disability so NEVER GIVE UP!"

Having minimal outside administration or leadership brings balance to the team. It is all too common in other school models to have an overabundance of managers, supervisors, and other administrators. Similar to how a country of self-governing individuals does not need to be managed, directed, or regulated, the culture and mindset of parents and students in the AFE setting do not require too much oversight.
In a service organization like a school, it is important to avoid compensating anyone who is not working towards the ultimate benefit of the students and their families. Compensation should be based on investment of time and effort. Most established schools systems have administrators (e.g., superintendent and school board) who appear to be doing little if anything to support the local group of students. The organization at AFE limits these positions and emphasizes the power of the parent. The Director oversees the "art" side of running a school and can oversee multiple locations. He/she maintains the integrity of the philosophy within the local groups he or she serves.
Keeping the local groups of families relatively small allows for little need for more than an administrator and a director. The director needs the biggest vision for how to serve the community. Because this little community has so many levels of connection, the director often finds ways to have the school better serve the community, including those outside of the student body. When the director is looking to add a new leader or teacher, they are looking for someone who has a passion for the subject and/or the students, has spiritual maturity, views leadership as service, and sufficient basic skills that would enable them to add value to the team. "Hire attitude. Train skill."

Thomas and Cassandra Astle have the adorable story of knowing each other since birth. They were married in 2007 and have 3 boys. Cassandra has always had a heart for motherhood and education. She earned an AA in Professional Preschool Education, a BA in Child Development, and started on a masters in Special Education. She worked in the public school system for two years mainly as a K-3 special education teacher where she found her passion for inspiring children to have a love of learning. However, her frustration with public school politics and testing helped her choose to no longer pursue that route. Later, she ran an in home daycare/preschool from her home. After 3 1/2 years running that program and years of leadership education, it was time to pursue a bigger goal and start a school where children can learn and grow in their families, their faith, and as leaders in their community. Thomas is an extremely supportive husband who has his own passion for protecting our country through military service and through leadership education.

Are you wondering how to introduce Agile to your organization easily, without wasting all the effort and money that went into developing and embedding your current PRINCE2 based (or any other) project methodology in the first place?
Read on and find the answer.
Experienced PM's know how to use Agile and PRINCE2.
Experienced project managers do not get fixated about any particular methodology. They know that they can take the most appropriate component or element from any method, whether it be PMBoK®, APM or PRINCE2 and apply it in an appropriate manner to the given situation.
This pragmatic approach is just as important when bringing Agile thinking into the business of delivering change. We need to take a big picture view and understand the strengths of traditional waterfall methods like PRINCE2, with the value proposition that an Agile approach offers. After all, successful project delivery to the satisfaction of all the stakeholders is the goal, rather than the rigorous conformance to a method.
By the way, PRINCE2 has an iterative technique tucked away in its process, but that's another article.
Keep, Replace or Combine with PRINCE2?
PRINCE2 has been around in its current form since 1996 with many version updates. It works for any project of any size, as long as it is implemented by an experienced project office and driven by sensible managers. Many organizations are benefiting from it, and are now torn between wasting all the effort to get to this position, and implementing the enticing Agile project management approach.
You do not have to throw away the good stuff, you can keep the best components that you currently have and introduce and integrate Agile where it will make a meaningful difference. Do it carefully and follow these tips.
These guidance points are not sequential.
Introducing Agile is a culture adjustment that requires a thoughtful change engagement, so run it as a project with special emphasis on an encompassing and focused stakeholder engagement strategy.
Adding to the point above, understand that your project customers will have to be fully involved as contributors to product delivery, and as key decision makers. Agile is not a silver bullet, if you currently struggle to get customer engagement, you may find it even more hurtful with Agile, so get that stakeholder engagement strategy in place. Your PMO should do it regardless of whether you are implementing Agile or not.
Manage expectations; yours and your teams. Do not expect that the word "agile" leads immediately to improved speed to market, less process and reduced documentation. It won't until you have harnessed the strengths of your current approach with those of Agile in a synergized approach.
Research thoroughly. Decide which flavor of Agile you are going to apply and get trained on. I particularly like Agile PM™, based on the DSDM® (Dynamic System Development Method). It's the easiest approach when aligning with PRINCE2 and other waterfall methods. It's also the most mature Agile model, conforms strongly to the Agile manifesto, yet embraces sensible yet flexible governance.
Get up-front training for all players including customers and project managers, especially the experienced ones whose command and control role is about to change. In particular, make sure all team members know how to use facilitation techniques to optimize and get results out of "stand up" agile meetings and workshops.
Appoint champions who can act as Agile coaches, and get them or your PMO to capture lessons learnt and improve through a continuous improvement technique.
Don't try and apply agile to all projects, or even to all stages or phases of projects, you can mix up a waterfall and agile approach very successfully. You don't need to apply Agile to all teams either.
AgilePM's fresh thinking can be aligned very successfully with existing waterfall approaches to achieve desired improvements in project management. You do not need to run all your projects using Agile, you will find that Agile will be more appropriate where change is frequent, unpredictable and requirements are not clearly understood up front. Agile will work where there is a reasonably mature level of project management, a strong desire for delivery improvement, with senior management support, in the IT or any other area, for private and public sector projects.


The Wolf Pack Hockey Club is a member of the NWHL (Northwest Hockey League) house/travel league.

Our excellent Hockey Performance Training Shelf will include morning and afternoon speed, strength balance and power training along with stick work, shooting plus small area road hockey, soccer etc games for full athletic training. NOW…adding the wonderful training attributes of Floorball. Our experienced professional coaching staff are set up to work with various levels, providing the player is coming with the purpose and focus of improving in the five major skills and applying those to game situations in the afternoon scrimmage sessions. Although the emphasis is on fun, the expectations for improvement are high! Getting better is much more fun!

Floorball is a fast-paced stick and ball sport that is safe, fun, inclusive, and easy to learn. Play centers around ball control, quick passing, and lots of running.
Floorball was originally developed in Sweden where the game has been played since the mid-1970s. It is the fastest growing team sport in Europe. The roots of Floorball can be found in many different sports; soccer, hockey, and basketball to name a few, which means that many concepts and strategies from those sports, can be seen in Floorball, according to the Floorball Training Guide.
Along with our unique focus on Sumo skating perfection and speed, we are anticipating that by adding Floorball it will round out our program to be the best platform anywhere. Passionate players who buy into our long-term development program of the total athlete can reach any level they want. Ask any great hockey player how they became so good…they will say playing hours of road/pond hockey. This self-motivated training improves stick skills, game vision, creativity, understanding tolerances, speed, and physical fitness. The personal commitment needs to be long-term to engrain core skills. Choosing to play on a team that may have a better chance to win, but does not stay the development course will hamper the player's development.
To add excitement and validity to the Floorball initiative our GM and Chicago Wolves Coach Stan Dubicki has discussed it with our own Chicago Wolves players. The attached photo shows Thomas Hyka –Czech, Erik Brannstrom –captain of this year's Swedish Jr National team, and Zach Whitecloud from Manitoba-eh! These Wolves all swear by the value of playing floorball in their development. They are hoping to get time with some of our players to show how it works!

Note: birth year 2012 and later can play Coyote AAU travel but not Mite NWHL as per USA Hockey rules.

Japan to declare virus state of emergency in Tokyo region
Posted at Jan 07 2021 02:30 PM
Pedestrians wearing protective masks, following the COVID-19 outbreak, make their way during a commuting hour at a business district in Tokyo, Japan, Jan. 7, 2021. Kim Kyung-Hoon, Reuters
TOKYO - Japan's government will declare a coronavirus state of emergency in the greater Tokyo area on Thursday, hoping the month-long measure can bring a surging wave of infections under control.
The new restrictions will be far less strict than harsh lockdowns seen in other parts of the world, and will be softer even than the first state of emergency implemented in Japan last spring.
For now, it will affect Tokyo and 3 surrounding areas that petitioned the government to make the move, though at least 1 other region has already suggested it could seek to be included.
Around a quarter of Japan's population lives in the greater Tokyo area, and the region accounts for a large portion of the country's daily COVID-19 cases.
The declaration will primarily target restaurants and bars, which are being asked to stop serving alcohol by 7 p.m. and close an hour later.
Residents of affected areas will be asked to avoid non-essential outings after 8 p.m. and businesses will be urged to maximize teleworking, with the goal of reducing commuter traffic by 70 percent.
An official announcement is not expected until late Thursday, after Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga holds consultations with the government's virus task force.

But the minister in change of Japan's pandemic response outlined the expected shape of the measure on Thursday morning, warning that the medical system in the capital was "stretched thin".
"Every day we are seeing record numbers of infections. We have a very serious sense of crisis," Yasutoshi Nishimura said.
The emergency -- expected to last until Feb. 7 initially -- comes with Tokyo reporting record new case numbers in recent weeks, and the infection rate and death toll rising nationwide.
Still, the outbreak in Japan remains relatively small, with just over 3,700 deaths since the country's first infection was detected in January 2020.
The government had been reluctant to call a state of emergency for fear of sending the economy back into reverse shortly after it emerged from recession. The greater Tokyo region accounts for a third of Japan's GDP.
Suga has seen his government's approval ratings tank over its handling of the new wave of infections -- particularly its controversial backing of a domestic travel campaign even as case numbers spiked.
He has said this emergency will be more limited and focused than last year's, despite warnings from some medical experts that the measures may be insufficient.
Schools will not close and major events will be permitted, with the cap for spectators revised down to 5,000 people or 50 percent capacity, whichever is smaller.
Japanese law does not currently allow authorities to enforce cooperation with the requests, though the government is planning legislation permitting fines to be levied on businesses that do not comply.
For now, subsidies will be offered to businesses that close early, and the government could name-and-shame those that fail to do so.
