I want a camera that is compact and shoots just nice pictures, oh and I like to make short movies in 720p. That's was my start of 'hobby' photography in 2010. In the early days everyone bought just that disposable camera for fun and holidays for a few euro they where really indestructible and you had to send it to a store to make 'photo's' of it. Feels like back to the future….
After using my Nikon Coolpix L810 for 3 years on sport events, holidays and surf-trips, I am done with it. Not because it's not a good compact camera it its, but i really miss the depth and the AA battery on the long run gets irritating. So, please always buy a cam with a recharge pack. At first don't seems like a biggie but if you also go for creating movies and shooting a lot in your precious week.. meh.
I prefer to have to battery packs than carrying or buying packs of AA in supermarkets. The camera got a good wide angle and is nice for zooming and has good natural color in the pictures. But filming moving objects is not that great. Because he keeps focusing on the wrong points and that's gives a lot of blur. I used it for taking interviews and the auto focus is a stubborn guy. Sometimes is works great sometimes it don't. So now comes the switch to my first DSLR I really like the Nikon for his menu and style. So it's going to be a Nikon.
I am still in doubt between the entry point price. I really like the part of the DSLR camera's that you can start with a basic kite and upgrade it when you feel it's time and you needed it.
That's the Nikon D3100 or the Nikon D3200. And I made the choice of picking the Nikon D3200 I hope that extra 115 dollar is going to pay of. The web says that the movie options are better, my friends say that has just that bit better quality. Well we going to check it out:) It better be good one. And finding out how the manual settings works etc there are so many good tutorials out there.
Now find a new photo-project or pick-up my old ones ;-). Ill keep on posting no wurries.
Keep it real and keep on surfing!

Our art is an ancient one. Dry stone wall construction was known to Bantu tribes in southeastern Africa as early at 1350 to 1500 AD. Some Cornish walls may date from 4000 B.C!
This arch of millstone grit, which is a grainy sandstone, has been built as a feature in Tracey's attempt to progress through the final stage of the Dry Stone Walling Association's Certification scheme.
The video you see below depicts a pivotal moment in a waller's feature when the wooden construction former is removed and the arch stands under its own weight for the first time.


A toll free suicide helpline is currently available to persons who are in need of immediate counselling. The hotline number  600-7896 is one made available by one of the two local telephone companies – Digicel Guyana.
This means that persons, even if they do not have credit in their mobile devices, can have access to a counsellor who can offer them professional help. This development has been especially lauded by the National Coordinating Director of Caribbean Voice, Mr. Nazim Hussain.
Registered in New York, the Caribbean Voice is a not-for-profit Non-Governmental Organisation [NGO] involved in anti-violence activism with a special focus on suicide prevention and anti-abuse that has a major focus in Guyana.
Hussain noted that the move by Digicel to render its support to offer the toll free service is a very laudable move. "I didn't even know that there was a toll free helpline until a recent visit to the Minister of Public Security's office. I knew there were helpline numbers but it was brought to my attention then, that the Digicel number on the list of helpline numbers is a toll free number.
"This is something that we have been calling for, for a long time," said Hussain.
This was required in recognition of the fact that "some people do not have money to pay for a call when they are having suicide ideations," Hussain noted.
Other helpline numbers are  – 223-0001, 223-0009 and 623-4444. The toll free number [600-4444] and 623-4444 are also active Whatsapp numbers that persons in need of counselling can access.
Earlier this year Minister of Public Security, Khemraj Ramjattan, said that Government is not opposed to the introduction of a toll-free suicide helpline. But the Public Security Minister even then said that while a move in this direction would be tactical, Government was not in the best of position to independently fast-track its implementation.
Minister Ramjattan also revealed that he is willing to throw any possible support behind individuals or organisations willing to bring such an initiative to fruition.
He, however, noted that "the first step is to know who is behind such an idea because I would want to know if they have good or bad intentions. There are some people who might want it for their own profiteering purpose," speculated Minister Ramjattan.
Ramjattan's solicited remarks came on the heels of calls for the implementation of toll-free suicide helplines from the Caribbean Voice.
Recognising the Caribbean Voice as a credible NGO, the Public Security Minister said that he is ready and willing to lend support wherever possible. "I would support Caribbean Voice; they have done some work in Guyana but I want to see them going down on the ground doing much more work," the Minister had noted.
Hussain disclosed that while the Caribbean Voice has not been in the business of highlighting the extent of its work, there is record to substantiate that it has been reaching people across the country and has worked in collaboration with the Public Health Ministry and other organisations too. In fact, he disclosed that Caribbean Voice is currently engaged in offering professional services to a few individuals.
From all indication, Digicel heard the call and responded by causing its number to be toll free.

Maybe anyone know how to solve the Error?

A: It's no possible to load normal .class files during runtime with Android, because
Android use an other VM, which can only read .dex files.
So I have to use the DexClassLoader

I would like to firstly say a huge thank you to you both for an amazing shark experience on that blue and Mako cage dive on the 29th of Dec. Coming from Harare, we don't get out to sea too often, as you noticed by my weak constitution, however I have a profound fascination with sharks and have always been intrigued by them. I did the Great White cage dive in Gaansbaai a few years ago and whilst it was awesome I found your dive more educational and more exhilarating. You both have such a depth of knowledge and passion of the animals and that comes across on your trip. I took a few pics above water which I will email to you, however I have no underwater pics, I am not sure if you have contact email addresses of the other guys that were on the trip who had cameras and whether they would be willing to email me a few underwater pics of the Mako's and Blue's as I would love to show my wife, and very jealous brother in law who declined on the trip, said it would be too cold, the blouse.
Once again, thank you so much for a most magical experience, and hope to see you soon in the Cape or in Zim, and good luck with Air Jaws 3.

The Path to Becoming an Iconic Brand
CIO Applications Europe
This article is a reprint of "Top 10 CEM Solution Providers 2018" originally published in CIO Applications Europe.
Gone are the days when competing was based purely on price or selection. Customers today want real connections with brands, which means seamless, personalized, and compelling experiences across all channels. Leveraging content to deliver superior customer experiences is where the rubber meets the road. In order to establish optimal customer connection, brands must use enthralling content to deliver superior customer experiences. However, mastering content entails possessing the right tools to maximize rich media assets, implementing workflows to address omnichannel product drops and multi-language requirements, scaling content with changing needs, and numerous technical and logistical aspects. Having captured the essence of innovation, CoreMedia knows what it takes to become an iconic brand in the age of customer experience.
Beginning with an initial focus on media and telecommunications, CoreMedia has been in the content business for over 20 years, assisting reputed brands to overcome the challenges of managing and monetizing enterprise content assets since 1996. Composed of pioneers, visionaries, trusted advisors, and fun-loving experts, the team at CoreMedia is adept at taking brands to the next level of their digital experience. With the power of their rich expertise, technology, and insights, CoreMedia enables brands to deliver great customer experiences through any device or channel.
The world of content has shifted away from the traditional single destination towards one residing in numerous systems — from eCommerce to marketing clouds to YouTube channels. CoreMedia serves as the hub to connect these systems and streamline the content for data access and sharing in real-time, and facilitates complete control over their customer experiences with a single, intuitive authoring environment. "We provide companies that use large monolithic systems with open APIs and an object-oriented event-based architecture to connect independent systems together, to allow for a rapidly response to shifts in customer expectations and behavior," states Sören Stamer, CEO of CoreMedia. The company offers an integrated tool set to automate and optimize the Digital Asset Management (DAM) process with a single click. CoreMedia also features an omnichannel editor and multi-language capabilities to store, edit, and access all content in an omnichannel format, enabling brands to orchestrate global drops and engage customers across multiple channels.
The company's flagship product CoreMedia Content Cloud has been essential in enabling brands to orchestrate global drops informed by local insights at unprecedented speed, or to customize the digital signage inside brick-and-mortar flagship stores for a single customer. CoreMedia Content Cloud's ability to access content anytime and anywhere from any integrated system, allowing the user to preview the customer experience across any device or context, enables marketers to instantly implement important revisions. Content Cloud is also shaping the future of brick-and-mortar stores by leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) to automate repetitive tasks and enhance productivity, regardless of the platform for new personalized digital experiences. With this, brands can construct, experiment, and iterate multiple versions of text-on-image banners for various devices, aspect ratios, and image resolutions efficiently with a single click.
As Stamer puts it, Content Cloud is the "missing piece" for creating and previewing digital experiences across every channel in the customer journey via an open, best-of-breed, API-driven solution that possesses the scalability and speed to publish faster, integrate deeper, and streamline customer journey. These open APIs, integration hubs, and pre-built integrations provide developers with the flexibility to seamlessly connect with both legacy and future systems. CoreMedia Content Cloud assists companies in creating and optimizing a single experience for up to 40 brands, 500 sites, 150 countries, 20 languages, 10 social platforms, and three commerce systems, maintaining brand consistency throughout the customer journey.
"We are committed to developing an open best-of-breed architecture with powerful hubs for augmenting our clients' existing systems and enabling them to easily switch to more versatile 'headless' services that can be rearranged as required," Stamer says. A headless content repository stores and utilizes enterprise assets with greater agility, while built-in experience orchestration allows editors to preview complex frontend customer experiences in real-time. Omnichannel content delivery options can assist with dynamic publishing across multiple touchpoints, allowing for unparalleled flexibility to design and deploy next-level shoppable experiences.
Recently, a top global jewelry retailer using Salesforce Commerce Cloud needed an improved brand presence and customer engagement to drive eCommerce sales. However, executing campaigns required lots of custom development and technical resources. CoreMedia's unique ability to blend content with eCommerce functionality allowed the retailer to quickly construct new shoppable content such as blog posts, campaign pages, and shoppable videos, eliminating the drop-off between the brand pages and the product catalog. The retailer's marketing staff was able to schedule campaigns directly, resulting in much faster turnaround times. "Within three months, the retailer seamlessly integrated shoppable content with Salesforce Commerce Cloud, went live, and raised their online sales by 61 percent," adds Stamer.
CoreMedia takes great pride in its partnerships and integrations, including the innovative enterprise commerce solution, Elastic Path. Recognized by Gartner as a visionary in the Magic Quadrant for Web Content Management, CoreMedia's team believes in the process of continuous innovation and is currently looking to enhance its data privacy compliance tools and omnichannel campaign management tools with additional AI, commerce, and marketing integrations. "We are working with Acrolinx and Siteimprove to improve content quality feedback integrations and introduce multi-artificial integration APIs with prototyping of VR/AR/mixed reality content," Stamer explains. CoreMedia leads the charge to leverage AI and machine learning tools for supporting new forms of automation, thus increasing business user productivity and helping clients deliver refined targeted customer experience.

I have tried to apply the following code on one cell, but it didn't work.
Sub check_value()
  If Cells(8, 23).Value < Cells(8, 24).Value Then
    Cells(8, 23).Value = Cells(8, 24).Value
  End If
End Sub

A: F2 and F3 have a scenario where the Target < Score, so we can compare the values (similar to what you've got)
if cells(2,6).value < cells(3,6) then cells(2,6).value = cells(3,6).value

My only correction from your tested code is using rows to compare, rather than columns, which appears to be how each Skill is being assessed (e.g., Target for Skill 5 is 5 (F2), while the Score is 7 (F3)).

Note that you can use a loop to get through the whole data set by finding last column (lc) and last row (lr), such that:
For j = 2 to lc 'columns
    for i = 2 to lr step 2 'rows with a step of 2 so you can do sets of score/target
        'do stuff
    next i
next j

A: I think this may help you:
Option Explicit

Sub test()

    Dim LastRow As Long, Row As Long, Target As Long, Score As Long, LastColumn As Long, Column As Long

    With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")

        LastColumn = .Cells(1, .Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft).Column
        LastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row

        For Column = 2 To LastColumn

            For Row = 2 To LastRow Step 2

                Target = .Cells(Row, Column).Value
                Score = .Cells(Row + 1, Column).Value

                If Score > Target Then
                    .Cells(Row, Column).Value = Score
                End If

            Next Row

        Next Column

    End With

End Sub

stories and commentary by a national guardsman
Air Guard remains top community advocate
Post author By Eartheditor
No Comments on Air Guard remains top community advocate
Enlisted professional military education students assigned to the Air National Guard training and education center for U.S. Air Force noncommissioned officer academy and Airman leadership school at volunteer in the greater Knoxville, Tennessee region this year. Since last October at least 930 EPME students temporarily assigned for classes volunteered 2,756 hours of community service with more than two dozen not-for-profits. (U.S. Air National Guard courtesy photo)
MCGHEE TYSON AIR NATIONAL GUARD BASE, Tenn. – It would not be out of the ordinary for someone in the East Tennessee Smoky Mountains region to know of a U.S. Air Force Airman.
That's partly due to the community volunteerism generated here during last fiscal year through students at the Air National Guard's I.G. Brown Training and Education Center.
"The student's daily schedule is packed full of academic requirements, so their dedication to service truly shows in their support to the local community while balancing the rigors of coursework," said Chief Master Sgt. Winfield Hinkley, the commandant.
The TEC's Enlisted Professional Military Education Center teaches Air Force noncommissioned officer academy and Airmen leadership school each year to thousands of active duty, National Guard, and Reserve junior enlisted Airmen.
Chief Hinkley mentioned that the students actively search for needs in the community during their five- and six-week classes. "I am impressed and proud," he said.
Since last October at least 930 EPME students temporarily assigned for classes volunteered 2,756 hours of community service with more than two dozen not-for-profits, in and around greater Knoxville.
It is possible that the number approaches 4,000 hours when combined with the additional volunteer work of 84 full-time staff.
Moreover, training center students and faculty are among the top 10 percent of area blood donators for 24 hospitals and 21 counties. They host about eight blood drives each year through the Medic Regional Blood Center.
The Greater Knoxville Business Journal also ranked the base 25th among 100 Knoxville-area major employers with about 780 full-time and 930 part-time employees in 2015.
"We're as active as we can be," said Lt. Col. David Meece, the training center's deputy commander. "When you peel it down to each Airman and their family doing what they do, it's probably astronomical to think of what impact the training center is having on the community."
The military not only influences East Tennessee through volunteerism but though $1.8 billion in economic impact, according to regional reports. Base finance officials said more than $153 million of that impact generated from McGhee Tyson Air National Guard Base.
Taking raw numbers and calculating in indirect local spending helps leaders understand the local economy.
In 2013, the app Foursquare rated Knoxville as the most patriotic city in the nation through an analysis of its social media activity. It is not a far stretch then to guess that patriotism generates ways for service members to get involved.
"It is always a highlight to hear that students find the time to give back to the local community," said Meece. "It's been a healthy push to be a part of our staff's participation in community organizations and events. I like to think that we are making a big difference getting out there and doing things."
Among the staff's many community support highlights this year was running the 10th Mountain Man Memorial March, hosting the Civil Air Patrol regional training event, promoting youth group events with Youth Leadership Blount, and mentorship with the Air Force Junior ROTC.
Professional continuing education classes brought additional students into the community to observe and ask questions – the Knoxville Fire Department opened their firehouse to videography students to practice camera techniques. The Knoxville Visitors Center hosted public affairs managers to see how they manage a live radio show.
With the next fiscal year at hand, Colonel Meece and other staff discussed the training center's efforts in military support and awareness by working with the Eastern Tennessee Military Affairs Council.
The training center is among 19 military units that meet in a monthly ETMAC forum downtown with the area's veterans groups, nonprofits, and military friendly organizations.
"They keep us connected to the local community and the support of military-related organizations," said Senior Master Sgt. Michael Krausz, the training center's first sergeant. He attends monthly meetings as a liaison.
From ETMAC's forum flows all regional information on military events, ideas, and functions. Each organization and military unit updates the council on charitable drives and awareness events. Elected officials and the local media are also on hand.
"Coming here from Wisconsin, I've never seen anything like it before," Krausz said. "It's pretty amazing, to see the different organizations that come together in support of veterans and active military."

Hello. I am a prior U.S. Navy sailor and photojournalist serving on active duty with the National Guard – combined, for more than 22 years. This blog features my more memorable stories and photos from that news pile as well as creative writing. All images and stories are by me unless otherwise credited. I hope to backlog more as well as write new stories. Thank you so much.

Might as well get the new thread going with the draft tonight. Let's have at it- we pick 22.
Was hoping for Foster or Lamp, but Harris seems really good. Apparently a smart guy (majored in Biology) and has a bit of a chip on his shoulder (said to teams pick me or I'll make you regret it). On the downside, doesn't seem like he does all that well against the run, which the Patriots will absolutely kill you with.
Harris was one of the highest rated guys on our board, not surprised we took him... Talented kid, only thing is he needs to develop into a three down player- he's gonna be a situational pass rusher off the bat.
Liking our draft so far- all defense all the time. We took LB Raekwon MacMillen from Ohio State in the second round, and CB Cordrea Tankersley from Clemson in the third. First time in team history that the Dolphins have used their first three picks in a draft on defense- pretty unbelievable that this is the first time that's happened.
The draft is setting up nice to solidify the defense. Considering all that was needed for the offense was guard and depth its smart that they filled their defensive needs. Assuming Jordan Phillips takes a step forward Miami will be a much tougher team to run on next year. Ideally we can hide Harris on running downs with two good runstuffing linebackers behind him and Suh and Wake on the other side long enough that he becomes good against the run.
First pick of day 3 and I love it. A guard that wins with power and nastiness. I would not be surprised if he's starting at left guard day 1.
Hopefully doesn't turn out like our other late round O-Iine picks.
Bumping it up because rookies report in 6 fvcking days and I am beginning to get motherfvcking pumped.
Does every team get one of these including the Browns? Cody Kessler leads the Browns to a perfect season with a perfect QB rating with Isiah Crowell rushing for 2500 yards and Josh Gordon magically getting reinstated to a 200 catch season.
I'm not saying it was aliens, but it was aliens.
idea. It's the offseason. Try and have a little fun.
Nice, I'll have to go watch that later when my work proxy doesn't block it.
Sad news, as Koa Misi has been put on IR and will likely retire due to his neck injury. As someone who suffers with neck pain himself, I feel bad for the guy and hope he can live a meaningful life after football.
I feel for Misi. He was pretty good, but just could never remain healthy. I wish him nothing but the best. We signed CB Alterraun Verner to take his roster spot. Verner can play both boundary and inside and will compete in camp with McCain.
It looks like Mando might be acting like a bit of a drama queen here with respect to Tannehill. He says only that the MRI still needs to be reviewed by specialists. Still I'm almost certain that the team doctors that reviewed the MRI have a lot of experience with knee injuries, even if they aren't necessarily specialists, and can generally tell if the film or the report indicate something like a major tear.
Might be a blessing in disguise if he's ready to go by week 1. Keeps him out of those meaningless preseason games.
I hope you're right, because if Tannehill is out, we can forget it. Matt Moore is a solid backup and he did a great job finishing what Tannehill started last year, but he can't be relied on to be consistent enough for 16 games to get the team to the playoffs. Regardless of anything, I don't wanna see Tannehill anywhere near a field again until week 1, assuming the knee is stable enough and he doesn't need surgery.
I swear this franchise is cursed.
Unlike MD2020, I think Matt Moore can get the team to the playoffs again if enough breaks the right way. Remember, he managed to make the team half way respectable with one of the most abysmal supporting casts and coaching staffs the team has had besides the 1-15 year, and taking us out of contention for Andrew Luck in the process. Whoever the Dolphins have at QB will have sh*t ton of weapons to help out along with a O-line that could be steady enough. And he was very good when he had to step in last year after having received no playing time until that point. Not saying he has the potential to be a league MVP, but there's no reason he can't have a resurgence similar to what Rich Gannon experienced.
Also against bringing in Kap or Cutler. Cutler stinks, always has so what would be the point. Kap might be able to recapture his old form and he had flashes last year, but he's not good enough to overcome how much I dislike him personally. While he says he won't take a knee at the anthem anymore (something in and of itself I didn't really care about) you know he's going to do something or many things to make it all about his political views.
Sounding like Cutler is more and more likely according to reports.... The ONLY thing that gives me any semblance of comfort is that Cutler had the best season of his career under Gase, and knows the offense.
If he's a body that's there to compete with Moore, I suppose I can live with it.
The word is he wants to be paid like a starter (so he probably wants something like $12-15 million), and if that's the case, he's likely gonna start. He'd have to 'win the job', but you aren't paying a backup QB $15 million. I just wonder what kind of shape he's in, considering he was a month away from being in a broadcast booth.
Cutler is signed. Done deal according to Ian Rappaport.

Captains who are playing from SEA rejoice! Mihoyo is releasing the much-awaited November 2018 update that includes a chunk of on-demand Valkyries, stigmata, and weapons that will be available on the next Expansion Supply gacha.

She will also be the first of her kind without having any similar gear to any other Valkyries including previous Kiana weapons.
Kriegsmesser Himeko will be an A-Rank Valkyrie. For sure, you'll be able to have an easy time farming for her fragments unless you win her immediately in the Expansion supply. Hope you got your best Greatsword ready for her.
Two new Stigmata will be available – Edwin Bubble and Celine: Ascendant. However, Mihoyo hasn't spoken whether the two are on T, M, or B.
Brand-new weapons namely Keys of the Void and Hrungnir will be available once the November update has been finished. They can be acquired through the Raid or through the Focused/Expansion Supply.
The latest update will finally introduce a second open world game to go with Sakura Samsara called Schicksal HQ – a base where main antagonist Otto Apocalypse resides and where players will be able to battle in intense Mecha battles. Better make sure your Psychic-type Valkyries are powerful enough.
Imaginary Space is finally coming in with newest treasure hunting that includes 4* items for upgrades and lots of HOMU chests. Gameplay will include teleporting between rifts and being able to time travel. Not many details here yet but we'll know once the update comes.
The Anniversary Memories chapter is still on-going for the next month but make sure you've ground enough to unlock the latest vacation skins for every girl. They won't be repeating this event until next year.
Hope you got your crystals saved especially for God Kiana. She's going to be a limited edition Valkyrie. Stay tuned to Games.lol for more details on Honkai Impact 3. Download and play Honkai Impact 3 now directly for the PC only here!


In 1899, Sigmund Freud published his magnum opus, The Interpretation of Dreams, which shocked the world and forever changed our understanding of dreams and the unconscious mind. This episodic narrative fiction series reimagines each of Freud's original case studies — "the Ratman", "Dora", "Anna O", "Irma's Injection" — as visually luxurious, psychologically complex, and emotionally haunting immersive VR dreamscapes. Each episode unfolds as a mystery to be solved. A patient arrives afflicted by a mysterious symptom — insomnia, recurring nightmares, the inability to speak or swallow. In search of a cure, the viewer enters their dreams, which are populated by symbolic objects and characters with hidden meanings. Federico Fellini famously called film "a dream we dream with our eyes open." VR provides a vast new vocabulary for the exploration and visualization of the unconscious, from the construction of surreal landscapes to the distortion of time, space, perception, and physical law. Written and Directed by Graham Sack. Technical Direction by Sensorium. Original Composition by Tim Fain.
Set in a collection of real world locations, this fresh, funny and irreverent VR series directed by Sam Cadman challenges its viewers to spot eight surreal and unexpected Easter eggs hidden within each episode. Sam's Surreal Gems is the antithesis of overly familiar futuristic and fantastical VR, rather, this series will celebrate the truly entertaining and wonderfully funny possibilities within the real world already around us. Each set of surreal gems will have been carefully rehearsed and seamlessly choreographed so as to happen in a single uninterrupted take lasting no more than 2-3 minutes. These gems will be arranged so that they build in spectacle and scale, as well as darting around all 360 degrees of the VR space. The same troupe of actors will appear in each location/episode – playing their characters with a natural and understated ease.
More information about the Samsung VR Video service can be found here. More information on 360 Round camera can be found here, and to learn about the new solution enhancements announced last week, here.


With the rising cost of fuel driving up the cost of holiday flights, more and more families are choosing to take the scenic driving route to their holiday destinations over the Christmas holiday season. If you're camping or staying in self-catering accommodation to keep your costs lower or simply staying for long periods of time, it usually equates to surplus luggage been hauled out the front door to be packed into your car. Surely it's as simple as stuffing your trunk or trailer and maybe using your 12 year old to jump up on bags to make sure it all fits? If you're a seasoned veteran of family road trips, you'll realise the art of car packing is a lot more intricate than first imagined.
Your car packing exercise needs to start with a systematically organised plan. Initially family members need to pack their bags with maximum efficiency so that all luggage space is used, one full bag is easier to pack then three half empty ones. Analyse your packing space; your car packing organisation will depend on whether you have an SUV, an additional trailer or packing space beneath your Hilux canopy. Bring all your luggage items to the vehicle before you begin packing as this will allow you to fill the spaces between your larger items with miscellaneous small bags or items. Mechanics will tell you to pack your heaviest items towards the front of your space to reduce weight on any particular tyres by improving the centre of gravity of the vehicle.
Make sure that you pack your car with the emergency and essential goods easily available to passengers during the trip. These include any medication, and emergency medical and road kit as well as entertainment and food for the trip. Your emergency kit should contain everything you need to make temporary repairs on your car, trailer or bakkie canopy for small road incidents. Pack healthy food for the kids so that they're full without the excess sugar; sandwiches and dried fruit and nuts are popular choices with parents. Freezing some of your drinks will keep the others cool for longer trips and keep a supply of straws with you in the vehicle to keep spillages to the minimum. Pack some entertainment for the kids, which is relevant to their generation; audio books, in car DVDs and handheld gaming systems are the norm, not the "99 bottles of beer on the wall" song.
Preparation and smart car packing will ensure that you arrive at your destination a little less stressed than 800 kilometers with the nagging cries of "are we there yet". Service your vehicle, pack smart and enjoy your festive season with the family.
Terrence Stoker is a freelance blogger and a family man. With the task of packing everything for his holiday under his bakkie canopy he has researched and tested a few simple ways to make your family road trips less painful than you think.

W9WAG WAGNON, ROBERT C.
Robert C. "Wag" Wagnon
The promise Jesus gave us in John 14 came true for 'Wag' on June 8, 2017, as He took him by the hand and brought him home. The Bible tells us that God has a plan for us. His plan began December 29, 1928, as Wag entered this world.
He married Joan Nelson on February 10, 1951, and together they spent more than 66 years building a life of memories and a legacy of family.
The U.S. Army became Wag's first career. Serving his country, including time spent in Viet-Nam
[Vietnam Service Medal] and earning a bronze Star, he retired after 20 years as a Lt. Colonel. He worked for Abbott Laboratories for 20 years as his second career.
Wag enjoyed Ham Radio but his real joy came from his time spent with all his Aero Stream friends, even becoming the president of WBCCI for the entire country.
Joan and Wag spent time in FL where they made friends with people from all over the country.
Wag was a man of integrity and honor. He was never one to have the spotlight on himself, seldom talking about his personal achievements through-out his life, which were many.
Wags legacy will continue to live on through his wife, Joan; his children, Suzann (Ray) Roberts, Sherri (Don) Yeager, Sabrina Knopff, Robert Wagnon, Jr, Cindy Frances (Lynn) Stubbs, and Nelson (Paula) Wagnon; 16 grandchildren; 14 great grandchildren; two great-great grandchildren; and friends from around the world.
Wag was proceeded in death by his son, Glenn, where he will be laid to rest next to him.
Wag truly left this world better then he found it and now heaven has become a little bit brighter with his arrival.
You are invited to join the family for visitation on Monday, June 12th, at Proko Funeral Home from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. where smiles and stories can be shared. Services to celebrate Wag's 88 years will be held on Tuesday, June 13th, at Proko Funeral Home at 10:00 a.m. with full military honors to follow. Interment will take place at Northshore Garden of Memories - 1801 Green Bay Rd, North Chicago, IL 60064, at 12:00 noon. In lieu of flowers, memorials to Hospice Alliance would be appreciated by the family.

In recent years, information and communication technologies have taken the fun out of sports for children. It is, however, your responsibility as a parent to ensure you evoke a love for sports in your children. This will ensure your kids grow up to be healthy and fit.
But which sports would be the best for your child? In this post, we take a closer look at some of the most popular and essential sports for your child to participate in.
Martial arts will teach your child both discipline and patience and it's a great way for them to learn self-defense in case of an emergency.
Swimming is fantastic for muscular growth and coordination. Teaching your child from a young age how to swim will also ensure you have peace of mind knowing they won't be in any danger near water.
Any team sports like football and basketball is great for promoting physical fitness and enhancing your child's motor skills. This will also teach your child the value of teamwork.
It promotes flexibility, coordination and even though most people don't know it, gymnastics requires great strength for optimal performance.
It is a good sport to exercise the entire body and commonly the first physical activity most parents teach their children.
Skating is fantastic for the development of balance and coordination of movements. It is a very popular sport among younger people and can be beneficial to your child's health.
Tennis might not be one of the most common sports taught to children. It is however great for developing and boosting coordination and resistance.
The first step is to talk with your child and discuss their likes and dislikes. If you know how to play a specific sport or you simply know how it works because you just watch TV then play it with your child. Encourage them to participate in school sports. Keep in mind that your child should select a sport he/she feels most comfortable with.

After the cold and bad weather of the last few days it was a delight to go to Farthingstone and be welcomed with warm sunshine. The pairing of Gina Evans and home player Mary Gallagher went out first and although they won the first hole it was a tight game until the 9th hole. Being 3 down they then won the next 3 holes to make it all square by the 12th where Mary's knowledge of some very fast greens enabled them to come in with a 3 /2 win to start this fixture off well.
The second pairing of Jane Ross and Mel Steel both from Elton Furze had a hard fought match which went to the last hole where our two players came out on top.
Ellen Steel from Rushden was paired with Liz Hall also from Rushden who was playing in her first match for the Vets and managed to win their game 4/3, which has encouraged Liz to put her name down for other games.
Vicki Lyness and Judy Burdett both from Pytchley Lodge took their match to the 18th and halved the match which was a good result as Sue Smith from Cambridgeshire had a shot on the last hole.
Last minute reserve Sue Lane and Bobbie Austin both from Northants County G.C. struggled with the very fast greens and lost their match 3 and 2 against two lower handicap players from Cambridgeshire.
The Captain of Cambridgeshire Hazel Suswain played against Charmaine Locke and Alison Berry both from Silverstone G.C. Alison being another first time player. Hazel and her partner Lesley Armstrong managed to finish on the 17th hole winning 2 and 1.
The penulimate pairing of Diana Wells and Doreen Morrison came up the last hole all square with a shot being given to both our players, Trina Miller from Cambridgeshire needed to hole a tricky putt to halve the match but the ball slid past the hole giving the Northants pair the win.
Our final pair of Nadia Anderson from Kingsthorpe and Glenys Emery from Northampton G.C. where able to read the very quick greens and win their match 4 and 3.
Our President, Diane Brook, was on hand to see the teams come in and sat out in the sunshine to share our 5 1/2 to 2 1/2 win.

Rwandan government closes 700 'noisy' churches

Originally published in Faithwire
Approximately 700 Churches have been shut down by the Rwandan government for failing to comply with noise restrictions. Most of those closed by officials were small Pentecostal congregations located in Kigali, but one mosque was also ordered to stop hosting services.
There has been an increase in charismatic individuals starting up small churches, claiming the ability to perform miracles. Citing the dangers of this type of practice, a new law now requires all preachers must have theological training before opening a church.
Some church premises reportedly exposed worshippers to unnecessary risks and could "cause danger to those worshipping," according to government official Justus Kangwagye, as reported by the BBC. Kangwagye told the BBC's Focus on Africa that the Churches were required to meet "modest standards" with regards to training and noise limits.
In an announcement on Feb 21, the Rwanda Governance Board said it was seeking to review the original governing laws for Churches due to "irregularities" in the way various congregations functioned.
"Some churches conduct their worship services in shoddy and unclean structures; to the detriment of people's health and safety. Cases of noise pollution have also been reported while some operate without the required operation permits," said Prof Anastase Shyaka.
She added: "Some Churches are torn apart by internal wrangles, this should not continue. If we are Christians, where we worship must meet standards showing respect for God."
Despite the sudden closures, Lutheran Bishop Evariste Bugabo insisted that the closure order "does not target any denomination."
"It is a matter of hygiene and security for the church members," he said, as reported by Religion News Service. "While churches have mushroomed too quickly in Rwanda, those that have met the requirements are safe."
"Are these boreholes that give people water?" asked President Paul Kagame in a critical remark about the number of churches in the city. "I don't think we have as many boreholes. Do we even have as many factories? This has been a mess," he added.
Rwandan international development David Himbara argued that Kagame is keeping a tight grip on religious freedoms in the East African nation.
"Kagame tightly controls the media, political parties, and civil society at large," Himbara wrote at Medium. "The churches constituted the last open space. Kagame knows this. The localised community of churches offered a slight space for daring to imagine and talk about change."
Himbara expanded on the vital importance of Rwanda's small congregations.
"In Rwanda's context, churches meet their members' spiritual, emotional and physical needs in these troubling times under Kagame's dictatorial and traumatising regime. Under the Kagame regime, many Rwandan churchgoers are struggling to make ends meet in their everyday lives. They are poor, unemployed or earn exceedingly low wages. Irrespective of church size, each Rwandan church provides some meaning, counselling, and outreach services to its members."
While Kagame cited "hygiene" concerns in the running of the Kigali churches, Himbara believes something else is at play here.
"The hygiene justification for closing churches is bogus," he wrote. "The entire Kigali City is unhygienic — with open sewers running through homes and neighborhoods. A city of over one million, Kigali does not have a sewage system. There is no treatment plant — raw sewage is dumped into the national and regional water systems."
"The real reason Kagame shut down Rwandan churches is fear and paranoia," Himbara said.
Authorities have also arrested several pastors during the crackdown. The well-known Bishop Innocent Rugagi of Redeemed Gospel Church, Apostle Charles Rwandamura of the United Christian Church (UCC) and Pastor Fred Nyamurangwa of Celpar Church were all taken into custody for failing to comply with the new restrictions put upon their congregations, as reported by KR Press.
Rev Emmanuel Ntambara, Pastor James Dura and Pastor Emmanuel Kalisa Shyaka were also detained. Rwandan police spokesman Theos Badege told news agency AFP on Tuesday the six Pentecostal preachers "conducted illegal meetings with bad intentions aimed at calling for the directives to be defied."
"After the suspension of churches that did not meet required standards, some church leaders began illegal meetings intended to defy and obstruct the directive," he added.
"Police began investigations to find the masterminds behind this illegal act."

Mussel of the
Mussel of the Month
The February 2015 Mussel of the Month is Acostaea rivolii. Acostaea is a monotypic genus, endemic to the Rio Madgalena, Colombia, South America.
USNM 363769. Rio Sucio, near Dos Bocas, Santander, U.S. Colombia.
Acostaea is one of four monotypic genera currently classified in the family Etheriidae. The other three are Etheria, Pseudomulleria, and Bartlettia. A good common name for the etheriids might be "freshwater oysters." Although traditionally, the composition of the Etheriidae was unproblematic, modern cladistic analyses have recovered conflicting results.
Etheria (from Africa & Madagascar) is mostly unproblematic. It is the type genus of the Etheriidae. If there is an Etheriidae, Etheria will be classified in it. Bartlettia is kind of problem that we addressed in a previous MotM. The real existential problems for the Etheriidae are Acostaea (from South America) and Pseudomulleria (from India). The available molecular data rendered the family both paraphyletic and polyphyletic (Bogan & Hoeh, 2000; Hoeh et al., 2009). Acostaea was recovered as sister to the Mycetopodidae, and Etheria was sister to that clade (paraphyletic). Pseudomulleria, on the other hand, was placed in the Family Unionidae (polyphyletic). However, cladistic analysis using morphological characters found that the monomyarian Acostaea and Pseudomulleria were sister to each other, and dimyarian Etheria was sister to that pair (Graf & Cummings, 2006, 2010). In either case, there are interesting biogeographical consequences for these species widely disjunct on the former fragments of Gondwana.
We are as geeked up as anybody about the new phylogenetic data that have become available over the last couple decades — especially from molecular characters. However, this issue with the Etheriidae remains a problem that awaits more data to resolve.
Phylum Mollusca
Class Bivalvia
Subclass Palaeoheterodonta
Order Unionoida

PEB Package Sent to DC Jan 25 2010......waiting on results.
Well they found me fit for duty. Which means to me that they are going to admin sep me since i am not fit for sea duty. Since i am so far away from my peblo i have a phone conference with them at 1100. I am going to appeal it since my crohn's is not under control and has been documented as moderately severe which is a 30 % rating. I sure hope they dont screw me. I think i will probably have to start writing a letter to my congressman. I am not sure how the appeal goes for a fit finding any help would be appreciated.
Yeah I talked with my PEBLO i guess under the DES pilot i have 10 days but he told me it was pretty much my NMA that did me in. My command said i was fit to do my job in the office enviroment but limited at sea. My command is going to write a new one but they seem reluctent to be thourough. I wrote one up and sent it to the JAG for advice and i will route it through the COC and see what they say.
its been over 3 weeks since i sent in my appeal for a formal board. I included an updated NMA, updated MEB Summary, a statement from my GI doctor, a personal statement, and a statement from my supervisor. It was a total of 16 pages. Not sure how long it will take to hear back from them but i guess the longer the better?
2 months and no word back from my appeal of a fit finding. Anyone know if by chance they just reconsidered and found me unfit and sent my package to the VA for a rating without telling my PEBLO that they found me unfit?
All you have to do is call the PEBLO and have them tell you. You should have a case worker who works on your case who originally briefed you!
I fully understand how its supposed to work. my case has been pending for over 2 months since i sent in the appeal. I did call the VA hot line today and they said that they had finished with my ratings and i should find out next week but my PEBLO still has the status of pending. But this leads me to believe that the PEB reconsidered and found be unfit. I am just assuming at this point but i am keeping my fingers crossed.
Returned to sea duty Mar 2010.
Back on MEB 9 July 2010.
My doctor told me I properly will get admin sep now. Because I am not fit for sea duty.
If this happens and you want to fight this, please contact me. I have filed a lawsuit in Federal Court challenging this type of action for an individual client. I am now considering filing again as a class action.
Bottom line, this is blatantly illegal in my opinion.
