Adam A. Beckel, Jr. (blessed 1948) is normally a modern American composer and, by 2012, primary trombonist from the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra. Beckel can be an enthusiastic composer, having his function The Cup Bead Video game: Concerto for Horn and Orchestra nominated for the Pulitzer Award in 1997. His compositions have already been performed and documented with the Baltimore, Atlanta, Indianapolis Symphonies, Foot. Wayne Philharmonic, USA Air Force Music group, the DC Surroundings Force Orchestra, and several various other nationally-recognized orchestras through the entire United States. Beckel is married, offers two children, and it is a member from the Carmel Brass Choir. Beckel maintains a trombone and euphonium studio room at DePauw School in Greencastle, Indiana.
Beckel was created in Marion, Ohio, where he studied using the trombonist Irey Halt. A diligent pupil, Beckel would frequently practice late in to the evening, and then get right up early and end his research. He wished to become an orchestral trombonist, therefore he published Edward Kleinhammer, then your bass trombonist from the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. Kleinhammer recommended, just, that Beckel practice not really two hours each day (as Beckel experienced carried out), but four hours each day.Beckel attended Indiana University or college, where he studied with Lewis Vehicle Haney. He received the positioning as primary trombone in Indianapolis in 1969, at only 20 years aged of age.
Like the lock-out from the Indianapolis Symphony in 2012, perhaps one of the most pivotal factors in the symphony's background began through the 1971-72 period. The task stoppage was almost similar, teetering on whether to lessen the orchestra to a part-time entity or flourish right into a full-time, world-class symphony. Solved by assistance from then Indianapolis Main Richard Lugar, one of the primary components of assisting the symphony, the consensus was to construct a board thinking about allowing and assisting the symphony develop. Headed by Costs Weisel, the symphony got larger and better, developing into today's full-time, 52-week orchestra.The first piece Beckel wrote for the ISO was Three Sketches for Orchestra, a jazz-based, rhythm-section-inclusive piece that "funnels down" to a trombone concerto. While well received, Beckel quickly discovered of imminent problems: many pops orchestra directors balk at having to hire a tempo section to try out the piece, & most traditional trombonists don't improvise. Afterwards, Celebrations, created for the delivery of Beckel's kid, was the start of gravitating to composing even more concert music than jazz.Beckel's initial true non-jazz structure was Evening Visions. Erich Kunzel, the long-time Cincinnati Pops Orchestra movie director, appreciated Evening Visions, nonetheless it was too much time and too critical for the pops market. Beckel was against a similar wall structure in the symphonic globe: Evening Visions had not been "serious plenty of" for an orchestral environment. Beckel unintentionally discovered how advertising and composition could be large affects that determine carrying out opportunities.Unexpectedly, the final movement of Night time Visions, "The American Fantasy", stood out commercially like a stand-alone function. Hal Leonard Posting Company approached Beckel to market the piece, and ''The American Fantasy'' became the to begin Beckel's compositions released by Hal Leonard.Kent Leslie, a People from france horn participant, approached Beckel to create a horn concerto. Leslie gave Beckel Hermann Hesse's The Cup Bead Video game as materials for composing the concerto, inadvertently producing a tag in Beckel's compositional procedure. Developing a structure from an initial source, using immediate material to attract from, was a fresh strategy for Beckel. "I create music greatest when this means something, instead of just noises."The concerto The Cup Bead Video game, according to Hal Leonard's reviews in 2011 – despite their initial trepidation – the amounts of sold copies exceeds 800, and in another printing! To get a college-level horn concerto as well as the reviews that are positive from professors and performers as well, The Cup Bead Game is known as a typical in horn repertoire, beside that of the Mozart and Strauss horn concertos.Among Beckel's most performed compositions, Liberty for any, continues to be performed by in least 80 orchestras with a huge selection of performances. Using the achievement of his patriotic compositions, Lt. Col. Alan Sierichs, USA Air Force Music group commander, commissioned Beckel to create another piece; Backyards of Rock was the merchandise of that fee, paying out tribute to dropped soldiers. Tag Weaver, former primary trombone using the Coastline Guard Music group, was an enormous assist in developing I Am the American Flag. The task takes inspiration through the wedding ceremony that surrounds the pension of an associate of the Coastline Safeguard, where an American flag can be handed to each member and he retells tales that pertain towards the retiring member.After a lot of commissions which were patriotic-heavy, Beckel was about way to becoming pigeon-holed like a patriotic composer. Mario Venzago, an important coach to Beckel, commissioned him to create Dream after Schubert. Happy with the merchandise, Toccata for Orchestra arrived of another commission payment by Venzago. One of the primary works created in Beckel's repertoire that had not been programmatic, Toccata was music created "for music's sake." The final function commissioned by Venzago and made up by Beckel was a Konzertstück, In the Brain's Attention, a Concerto for Horn Section and Orchestra. Written designed for the horn portion of the Indianapolis Symphony at heart, the structure was debuted in-may 2010. With disputes between administration and Venzago, the previous director was under no circumstances able to carry out the work using the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra.
Continuously learning, Beckel generally maintains a summary of "what works/what to never do once again." He's quoted stating, "Your initial impressions tend to be your best tips." Objectivity will frequently become a concern, so Beckel surface finishes a bit and pieces it aside, and then come back afterwards to revisit using a apparent perspective. Using one such event, he had taken the work from the shelf after per month, only to toss it in the garbage can and begin over. As Beckel matures, he "trusts himself even more," wanting to compose every piece better, also to enable himself to become innovative. "I still have confidence in melody," Beckel expresses. Not a customer of sweeping waves of feeling, Beckel is certainly rooted in a normal approach to type and melody. "However at exactly the same time, [I] hopefully shock sometimes."Be aware: the entirety of the article is situated upon an interview with Adam A. Beckel, Jr., on Oct 25, 2012.

Home Soccer Soccer Irish Will Any Of The Premier League's Relegated Teams Make An Instant Comeback?
Will Any Of The Premier League's Relegated Teams Make An Instant Comeback?
The strangest season in the history of the English Premier League has come to an end, and for three teams, the battle against relegation came down to the final day.
As the final round of fixtures kicked off, Aston Villa, Bournemouth, and Watford were aware that two out of the three of them would be confirmed as relegated by the end of the day. All of them hoped that they would be the club to pull off the great escape. As we now know, that lucky club was Aston Villa.
A nail-biting 1-1 draw away at West Ham United was enough to keep them up. Bournemouth won away at Everton, but it wasn't enough. Watford went down fighting with a 3-2 defeat away at Arsenal. Both of them will now join Norwich in the Championship next term.
Right now, all three clubs will be licking their wounds and resenting the mistakes that led them here. Soon, though, their attention will turn toward next season, and attempting to return to the promised land of the Premier League at the first opportunity. That won't be an easy task. The Championship is one of the most competitive leagues in Europe, and teams that come down from above don't always make it back quickly. It's taken Leeds United sixteen years to return to the top-flight, and former Premier League champions Blackburn Rovers are still absent after being relegated in 2012.
There are three ways to get promoted to the Premier League. You can either win the Championship, come second, or try your luck in the lottery of the playoffs. Considering their random nature and the financial benefits on offer, you could compare the playoffs to the biggest football-themed game on any online slots website.
We've seen the playoffs throw up random results many times before; Blackpool's promotion to the top flight in 2010 was more unlikely than any jackpot win on any online slots website you could name. As exciting and (occasionally) rewarding as online slots are, you wouldn't ever rely on them to provide you with an income, and nor would any club rely on them as a means of promotion. Watford, Bournemouth, and Norwich will all be hoping to finish in the top two next year – but are any of them likely to? Let's take a look.
It seems like a very long time ago now, but early on this season, Norwich looked like an exciting, attacking team, and Finnish striker Teemu Pukki was hailed as a goalscoring sensation. It took less than ten games for Norwich's tactics to be found out and Pukki's goals to dry up, and manager Daniel Farke was unable to find a working "plan B" to turn their fortunes around. Surprisingly, it appears that Farke will be given an opportunity to get Norwich out of this mess next season.
It's less likely that he'll be able to count on Pukki to assist him; rumor has it that he's set to depart Carrow Road for newly-promoted Leeds. Like West Bromwich Albion, Norwich has developed a reputation for bouncing back and forth between the Championship and the Premier League, seemingly too good for the former but never quite good enough to survive in the latter. Their biggest problem next season might be that losing can become a habit if you do it often enough, and Norwich has been losing games consistently for most of the season. Past experience tells us they'll be around the top 6, but winning the title might be a step too far.
Nobody expected Bournemouth to survive in the Premier League for as long as they did. Having won the Championship in 2015, they lasted for five years and played some attractive football during the time they were there. They lacked the resources to compete with the bigger clubs, though, and with the sides around them cherry-picking their best players, it was inevitable that they would lose their battle against gravity eventually.
Sadly for the club, the players, and their likable manager Eddie Howe, that battle has now come to an end. Bournemouth's prospects next season will probably depend on what Howe decides to do next. The ambitious coach has proven that he can work with a budget, but seems to have become frustrated with what he perceives as the board's lack of ambition, and has refused to commit himself to the club for next season. A decision on his future needs to be made urgently. With Howe in the dugout and some sensible purchases, Bournemouth has every chance of making it back into the top flight at the first time of asking. Without him, they could go into free fall.
Watford will spend big money in the quest to return to the Premier League. Their owners have already confirmed that, and in all honesty, they have never been shy about spending on the playing staff. What's cost them their Premier League status is their inexplicable habit of sacking managers at illogical times.
The Hornets went through four managers in the 2019/2020 season and fired Nigel Pearson after the combative coach had led them from the bottom of the table into a position where their fate was in their own hands with only two games to go. Without Pearson, Watford lost both games and went down. No matter how much money Watford's owners are willing to spend, a question has to be asked about what kind of self-respecting coach would go there in the knowledge that they could be sacked at any moment for any or no reason? The Watford manager's job isn't secure or desirable, and without a steady coach, they'll likely struggle to generate steady form.
The 2020/2021 season will be a nerve-wracking one for fans of all three sides, but our prediction is that Norwich fans are likely to be the happiest when it's over. They have more experience of getting out of the Championship than the other two clubs, and less uncertainty hanging over their immediate future. If Howe stays at Bournemouth, they have every chance of coming back as well, but without him, we suspect they may be gone for a while. For Watford, however, it's hard to see how the story ends happily with the club's current owners in situ.

Best grown with one huge top bud and not topped.
If topped it needs a good vegetative phase and its best to pick some of the big leafs!
Plants get not that big and its best to grow them in medium size pots close to each other (sea of green).
Flavour is oldschool skunky, some smell more skunky and some will have a bit more lemony sour skunk aroma.
The high is very relaxed and gives a happy feeling with a nice body buzz.
Perfect for a chilled day in the sun or relaxing in the bathtube.

It is often difficult Being the Light & Living the Light, when burdened for so long with the heaviness of a 3rd-Dimension planet. Earth now moves into the 5th Dimension, the Age of Aquarius as part of the Ascension process. A Spiritual Expansion to Higher Consciousness, an Awakening.
Ascension is the Ultimate goal for All Souls. To shed and release the Soul tethered to Limiting Beliefs that no longer serve in this dimension. To rid the Soul from the heaviness of accumulated emotional baggage of traumas, from this Lifetime and of Past lives.
As many levels of Intensity are upon you, realignments of Energy that will begin to Normalize. Often symptoms are brought on by the lack of Willingness that this Truth is upon you. Fear has been created, reflected in the natural flow, creating blocks internally.
Many still cling to the 3rd Dimension Density that is no longer the destiny of Earth and Her inhabitants. As you redirect outdated, limiting beliefs, you will understand and accept this Truth. It is the agreement you contracted to be a participate in with your Soul Group.
As you continue through Ascension – Remember Do Not think of yourself as a Human Ascending, you are a Being of Light, a Lightworker assisting Humanity during Earth's Ascension.
To make sense of the Ascension process, realize it began with the thinning of Earth's Veil. As this has taken place, a sense of increased Self-Awareness has been open for all to receive. The Veil was imposed to block Humanity from remembering – Who they are, and Why they came at this time. The Awakening Process has begun, with many Lightworkers here for this purpose, many have awakened to this Truth.
A Veil was placed between your five Physical senses and your Spiritual Awareness, to block this sense. As the veil thins, it reveals your true connection with all your Senses once again. While Ascension continues, many will begin to Remember, Embrace the return of this precious Gift, your Intuitive Spiritual connection. While Earth's dimensional adjustment continues, please see the several suggestions listed below, to assist.
During Meditation – Imagine your body filled with Light, see how it radiates from within. As you feel the Energy, the Warmth, hold this Image, this Feeling of Pure Light energy.

Marshawn Lynch left his mark on the Seahawks in his brief return
blood-sports.net
Photo by Stacy Revere/Getty Images
Marshawn Lynch gave the Seahawks a spark on the field, and some wise departing words for the younger generation of players.
When the Seahawks needed him most, Marshawn Lynch was more than happy to come out of retirement. The 33-year-old running back rejoined the team after it lost starter Chris Carson and backup C.J. Prosise to season-ending injuries in the same game, severely crippling one of the league's top rushing attacks.
His return in Week 17 against the 49ers was a big morale boost for Seattle, even if he wasn't an open-field monster like he was in previous years. The Seahawks used him sparingly at first, primarily in short-yardage situations, and found some success there. Mostly, though, Lynch was a veteran presence who was easy to rally behind, even if the Seahawks would ultimately come up short against Aaron Rodgers and the Packers in the Divisional Round.
Lynch didn't confirm he's staying retired, but if he does, he'd hardly be departing in a foul mood. The Seahawks gave it their all against Green Bay, and were all happy to have Lynch for a three-game stretch, including two playoff games.
Let's take a look at what Lynch did on the field, what his teammates said about him, and the departing wisdom he left behind.
Lynch was a trusty goal-line back in his return
Before his return, the last time Lynch played in an NFL game was on Oct. 14, 2018 (against the Seahawks!), when he was on the Raiders. Few expected him to come back from that layoff and immediately rush for 100 yards in a game. In fact, he didn't eclipse 100 total yards in the three games he played, but he did still manage to score four touchdowns.
The first came against the 49ers, Lynch's first touchdown since September 2018. And it was a beauty:
If Lynch was absent some of the quickness that made his running extra lethal, he still had an abundance of that "throw your whole damn body at a pile and see what happens" style. As usual when near the goal line, Lynch got in, over one of the best defensive fronts in the NFL.
That touchdown sparked a comeback that faltered only in the final seconds on the back of a strong defensive stop from San Francisco.
Lynch also gave the Seahawks a go-ahead touchdown in the Wild Card Round against the Eagles:
The play above is vintage Lynch. He made a cut inside, which caused the first defender to tackle him low, a fool's errand. The second defender collided with him full force and actually pushed him back, but Lynch spun around the whole thing and tumbled into the end zone.
He had a pair of touchdowns, both in the second half, in the 28-23 loss to the Packers.
The first was old-school power running — initiating contact at the goal line. He still hit the first player with the same power he showed in his heyday. A couple Packers defenders weren't enough to stop him there.
Just like they weren't enough to stop him the second time 'round, either.
While not quite as impressive as his other three touchdowns, this one was important in getting the Seahawks back in the game. Lynch still made his way through two or three Packers players on his way to the end zone, making it a one-score game in the process. What's most notable about the two touchdowns against the Packers is that Lynch was running out of the shotgun, but didn't look slowed by it.
With these scores, Lynch increased his rushing touchdown total in the playoffs to 12, putting him in a tie for fourth place on the all-time list alongside John Riggins and Terrell Davis.
Lynch left his teammates with some wisdom
On the field as well as off, Seahawks players were very happy to have Lynch back in the building.
After the game, quarterback Russell Wilson and head coach Pete Carroll were effusive in praise for Lynch and how he helped those around him. Wilson in particular highlighted Lynch's willingness to help rookie Travis Homer, the only other healthy running back on the roster. They weren't the only ones to speak highly of Lynch.
"He's just the ultimate teammate," linebacker K.J. Wright said of Lynch shortly after his return. "Cool dude. Just ballin'. So, I'm glad to have him back."
That speaks to the larger-than-football person that Lynch is. Everybody in the locker room respected the player Lynch was in his first run with the Seahawks, during which he ran for 1,000-plus yards four times, compiling 57 rushing touchdowns and helping them to victory in Super Bowl XLVIII.
His return wasn't simply an attempt to earn a Super Bowl ring or get a paycheck. Lynch came back because of the bond he has with his teammates and the Seahawks organization. Having been retired (twice) for a time, he's had some time to experience life on the other side of football and with that came some important wisdom: protect your future.
A lot of professional athletes struggle with money problems after their playing careers end. A decade ago, Sports Illustrated reported that around 78 percent of NFL players ended up with financial troubles after leaving the league — that number may not be accurate as of today, but it still looms large.
Lynch's full quote about his parting message to his teammates is below.
Marshawn Lynch goes on at length about his advice for young players.
The gist: "Take care of your chicken."
Chicken = money pic.twitter.com/dydj7NB0d8
— Joe Fann (@Joe_Fann) January 13, 2020
It's a vulnerable time for a lot of these young dudes. They need to be taking care of their chicken right, you feel me? If it was me, or if I had an opportunity to let these little young (players) know something, I'd say 'take care of your money, African, cause that (expletive) don't last forever.' Now I've been on the other side of retirement and it's good when you get over there and you can do what the (expletive) you want to, so I'll tell y'all right now while y'all in it, take care of your bread so when you're done, you go ahead and take care of yourself. So while y'all at it right now, take care of y'all's bodies, take care of y'all's chicken, take care of y'all's mentals. Because look, we ain't lasting that long. I had a couple players that I played with that they're no longer here. They're no longer. So start taking care of y'all mentals, y'all bodies and y'all chicken, so when you're ready to walk away, you walk away and you can be able to do what you want to do.
When Lynch was contemplating retirement in February 2016, Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network reported that Lynch hadn't spent a dime of his actual playing money and was living off of endorsements. It's safe to say that he takes financial issues seriously, and given the respect that locker room has for him, his wise words likely found its mark.

And it's not just a message that's important for the young guys to hear, either. Veteran linebacker Bobby Wagner was grateful to hear what he had to say and spoke on Lynch's growing perspective as someone who has lived the post-NFL life.
"It was amazing to have him back," Wagner said after the team's loss to the Packers. "He came back and you could just tell he's experienced a lot since he left. He's traveled a lot and obviously playing for different organizations and things. And he came back and his willingness to want to share that information with young guys and myself, it was something that everyone in that room is forever going to remember because he shared a lot of things people can take and use, not just football, but in life.
"We really grateful for him coming back and giving us everything he had. It was fun to watch him again, watch him run people over and extend to the goal line. It was special," Wagner said.
Though Seattle didn't accomplish its goal of winning a championship, it was indeed fun to have Beast Mode back in action again, if only for three games.

Waiter waiter, this [DJ] food is dry and unimaginative
January 30, 2012 by John Nugent Leave a Comment
Who (or what) the hell is DJ Food? Is he (or it) a DJ, some sort of food, or something altogether more sinister? Confusion still reigns over whether the 'food' in question is a concrete or proper noun; when the project began in 1990, as a collaborative effort between Ninja Tune label founders Coldcut amongst others, it was decidedly the former – aimed at providing 'food' (samples, breaks, loops) for the nascent trip-hop DJ community.
These days, it seems, DJ Food tends to lean towards proper noun territory. Strictly Kev, aka Kevin Foakes, has single-handedly adopted the moniker, with the first new album in 11 years. DJ Food's early releases in the nineties, the Jazz Brakes series, were invariably filed under Enthusiasts Only, jammed with 30-seconds-or-less tracks that rendered them alien to most casual listeners. The Search Engine is a more conventional album, but to some extent seems anachronistically trapped in the fire of the nineties from whence its creator was forged, stubbornly using genteel, humdrum big-beats devoid of imagination.
It begins confidently enough, some heavy-set, DJ Shadow-esque beats from opener All Covered In Darkness suggesting sturdy things to come. But even Shadow more or less managed to free himself from the shackles of flannel-shirted tyranny, with moves towards a grown-up, 21st-century breed of hip-hop. No such progression is evident here: just dogmatic attachment to dull, ungratifying drum patterns.
As we move onto track 2, 'GIANT' – perhaps named after the giant-ness of the eight interminable trundling minutes it goes on for – one of several middle-aged guest vocalists are introduced (The The's Matt Johnson), and thus the stage is set for what could be the soundtrack to a particularly mediocre British gangster film. Most entries, including eleven-minute (!) Magpie Music, are chocka with stupid bloody 'ironic' samples that stopped being funny years before even the spectre of Lemon Jelly. A man from America talking about astronomy will not distract from your insubstantial noise.
Electronic music is a fickle beast, and Ninja Tune stablemates like Bonobo and Amon Tobin have mostly managed to adapt to an evolving creative climate by moving with the times and adopting spikier, dubstep-informed sounds. DJ Food seems have aimed for fifteen years ago and still somehow missed. The Search Engine is harmless enough, but it'll bore you to tears.

Album review: On Beyond by Muchuu
If your dial was switched to Radio 1 late last year, chances are you will have heard the sparkly electropop stylings of a bright new band named Muchuu, bringing wide-eyed sweetness with electro sensibilities to mainstream radio. You may well expect such sounds to have sprung from the neon-lit suburbs of Tokyo (especially with a name like that), but this brother-sister combo hail from the green fields of Herefordshire in the English countryside, and their twinkly, good-natured music is finding fans worldwide.
It scarcely seems possible that this fresh-faced pair, whose combined age barely troubles forty, are already on their second album, but On Beyond marks an impressive maturation from their debut Adventure We Go. The influences are many and varied, but it's fair to say that Muchuu – composed of Milky (vocals, lyrics) and G-Man (keyboards, synths, backing vocals) owe a debt to the cheery electropop from the eighties onwards, as well as the more experimental output of pioneers like Bjork.
Their songs exist in a fantastical, Studio Ghibli-esque world, a world populated by pirates and dreams, full of imagination and invention. It's fantastically refreshing to hear pop employ a bit of creativity in its songwriting approach. Muchuu's homemade-ness is pivotal to their charm and success – it is probably for the best that they found their audience through the blogosphere than a superficial record deal. G-man's melodies are not without invention, either, with breezy synth production which wouldn't sound out of place in a Japanese arcade hall. Tracks like Dance The Day are peppered with 8-bit Nintendo-style noises and bleeps, appropriately accompanying Milky's sweet-natured singing.
The tone and style will almost certainly be too saccharine for all tastes, but even then you can't fail to appreciate the maturity of production and the earnestness of songwriting. Muchuu boast evident talent belying their young age; it seems highly unlikely they'll be pop's biggest secret for much longer.

The Kim who cried 'rape'
The Artist, obviously, is a stunning, heartfelt, sweet-natured, etc, etc. I won't repeat the usual platitudes – if you don't already know how good The Artist is, come back to me when you've read the rest of the internet first. It is utterly lovely.
Unfortunately, it appears there is a single detractor to this truism: veteran actress Kim Novak, who felt it her duty to spend actual cash money on a full-page advert in trade rage Variety on the use of a single piece of music from the classic 1958 Hitchcock film Vertigo, in which she starred. Scene d'Amour by Bernard Hermann is an impossibly beautiful piece of music, used to devastating, tear-wrenching effect in The Artist's climax. Kim Novak disagrees.
"I WANT TO REPORT A RAPE," Novak begins, definitely not going over the top with that analogy. In further overuse of both capital letters and poorly-chosen metaphors, Ms Novak feels "AS IF MY BODY – OR, AT LEAST, MY BODY OF WORK – HAS BEEN VIOLATED". (Thank goodness for that caveat, eh?) She continues to complain that the use of the music was "cheating" and "MORALLY WRONG", and that she is "THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN SPEAK NOW".
I'm not even going to get into the bombastically insensitive use of the word rape in order to have a bit of a moan about a film you didn't like – as the AV club put it, the word appears to have "evolved from meaning 'violent, forced sexual intercourse' to its more modern definition as 'something kind of upsetting that happens to famous people.'"
But what really gets my goat is how Kim is so enraged over 'stealing' a piece of music which is, itself, hugely derivative. Anyone who knows Bernard Hermann's classic Vertigo score will know that it borrows heavily – or, to put it in Novak's elegant phrasing, 'rapes' – from Richard Wagner's epic Tristan & Isolde opera (specifically the Liebstod aria). And why not? Great artists, and all that.
I'd perhaps understand her grievances more if director Michel Hazanavicius had remixed Bernard Hermann's score into a filthy bass-heavy dubstep mashup. As it stands, she comes across as a slightly dotty, and highly self-righteous, old luvvie. Well, there's a place for people like that.

Trailer review: The 84th Academy Awards
January 9, 2012 by John Nugent Leave a Comment
[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXGI9suAyBI]
We've been given our first glimpse of the biggest night in the self-congratulatory calendar, and it's a veritable smorgasbord of meh. If you weren't already underwhelmed about the upcoming Billy Crystal-hosted backslapfest, this should probably do the trick. The minute-long trail stuffs in plenty of budget and moderately big names, but it'll be lucky if it induces so much as a wince of a pitying smile. Let's conduct a post-mortem.
Our heroes are Josh Duhamel, who so memorably played the character 'Male Human 12B' in the Transformers saga, and Megan Fox, who thrilled audiences as her 'Attractive Female Human 1' in the first two classic instalments of that same critically lauded, Oscar-winning film series (might want to check this is right – Ed). Both appear to reprise their roles from Transformers, i.e. Josh provides all the exposition and Megan keeps quiet and looks pretty.
This unstoppable duo are told to track down a host who has gone 'off the grid' by legendary he's-been-in-everything character actor William Fitchner, who unforgivably is only given three measly seconds of screentime here. Still, off our two heroes embark on an Indiana Jonesian adventure, "charged with tracking down a legend" as Voiceover Guy helpfully notes.
Their journey takes them to see the decorated Oscar veteran Vinnie Jones, once again displaying his effervescent acting versatility after the success of his British Heart Foundation ad explaining how to give CPR in a manner that East End gangsters will understand. (Watch the ad if you haven't seen it, it's mindblowing. "No kissing!" he instructs, "you only kiss yer missus on the lips" – i.e. "I AIN'T NAH POOF OR NUFFINK".)
On Vinnie's recommendation Duhamel and Fox travel to the "furvest location on earf", where a bearded Robin Williams does one of his funny foreign accents. For the only actual Oscar winner amongst this cast, Williams' segment is perhaps the biggest dud. The music even does an abrupt-pause-for-expected-laughter moment for the "He transformed into a Yeti!" line. Yeesh.
Then finally, the payoff. What we've all been waiting for. "Are you the one they call…the host?" A lens flare obscuring a scruffy man's face suggests a big reveal is coming. Billy Crystal, our replacement host, the true hero, is to be revealed. It's going to be a massive punchline. A hilarious punchline…

It's easy to chuckle at Hollywood's favourite mentally unstable actor, but his fall from promising actor to unpredictable firecracker is really pretty tragic when you learnt that suffered a pretty devastating motorcycle accident in 1988 which left him with permanent brain damage. Suddenly that Family Guy pisstake doesn't seem so funny…

While Bluetooth transmission was originally limited to 728 kb / s (slightly less than MP3 quality), Qualcomm's now widely adopted aptX Bluetooth audio codec arrived at the turn of the decade to enable 'CD- like 'quality.

In a partial attempt to overthrow the largest streaming service on the planet, rivals such as Amazon Music, Tidal and Deezer are offering not only much, much higher-quality, 24 – bit sound quality, but also new listening experiences altogether, such as 3D audio.

A rental apartment was relisted with a different unit number. Is this a scam?
By Austin Havens-Bowen | June 2, 2021 - 2:30PM
Some brokers will relist an apartment with a different unit number to make it look newer, but it violates REBNY's policy and brokerages discourage the practice.
I noticed that a place I hope to rent has been relisted with a different apartment number. Is this a scam?
If a broker or landlord takes a listing off the market and then relists the apartment with a different unit number, it is usually done to make it appear like a new listing. That's because the number of days the listing has been on the market will now be reset to zero—or at least look that way.
However, this practice violates the Real Estate Board of New York's Residential Listing Service policy, according to a REBNY spokesperson. (Note, not all broker firms are members of REBNY, but most large NYC firms are.)
For example, if apartment 3A has been on the market for a couple of months, a broker might take the listing offline and relist it as apartment A3. Brokers typically just take them off for a day, change the apartment number, then relist it as new, says Bill Kowalczuk, a broker at Warburg Realty.

Section 11 of REBNY's universal co-brokerage agreement is very clear about this maneuver. It says "exclusive brokers and/or exclusive agents cannot circumvent this section by attempting to rename or re-list the exclusive listing."
"If anyone violates this, they would be taken through the compliance policy for the RLS," a spokesperson says.
It's also discouraged by most real estate brokerages, says Steven Goldschmidt, senior vice president and director of sales at Warburg Realty.
So why do brokers do it? Mostly to get around the days-on-the-market counter, says Michael J. Franco, a broker at Compass. "There is a perception that too many days on the market is a bad thing, which can be true in some instances," he says. Apartments that linger on the market might do so because they are undesirable or over-priced. It's also a way to attract new renters who want to see the latest listings.
Keep in mind that an apartment that's been on the market for an extended period of time represents an opportunity to negotiate a lower rent or some concessions. Similarly, if you notice an apartment has been listed multiple times with different unit numbers, it's worth asking for a discount.
Some brokers might also claim that they do this to prevent prospective renters from buzzing the apartment and bothering the current tenant or the landlord, Amanda Hudson, an agent at Dallien Realty told Brick in the past. "But the reality is they want to have a second or brand new listing that doesn't look stale."

The aim of this study was to investigate prospective secondary mathematics teachers' perceptions on and adaptation of student-centred approach to teaching. The study was conducted with 58 prospective secondary mathematics teachers during Teaching Methods course in 2014-2015 fall academic year in a western university in Turkey. In this mixed method study, Constructivist Learning Environment Survey was administered to the participants, and reflection papers were collected at the end of the semester in order to understand whether and how prospective teachers adapted student-centred curriculum into their teaching. The selected videos of the class discussions were also analyzed for triangulation. The findings indicated that there was an improvement on prospective teachers' scores on CLES indicating that the instruction helped them improve their perceptions towards student-centred approach to teaching. It was also found that prospective teachers' perception towards student-centred approach to teaching was organized under several themes, and they satisfied several expectations of the approach during microteaching.

A Course In Miracles - Workbook: Lesson 137 - When I Am Healed I Am Not Healed Alone.
Today's idea remains the central thought on which salvation rests. For healing is the opposite of all the world's ideas which dwell on sickness and on separate states. Sickness is a retreat from others, and a shutting off of joining. It becomes a door that closes on a separate self, and keeps it isolated and alone.
Sickness is isolation. For it seems to keep one self apart from all the rest, to suffer what the others do not feel. It gives the body final power to make the separation real, and keep the mind in solitary prison, split apart and held in pieces by a solid wall of sickened flesh, which it can not surmount.
The world obeys the laws that sickness serves, but healing operates apart from them. It is impossible that anyone be healed alone. In sickness must he be apart and separate. But healing is his own decision to be one again, and to accept his Self with all Its parts intact and unassailed. In sickness does his Self appear to be dismembered, and without the unity that gives It life. But healing is accomplished as he sees the body has no power to attack the universal oneness of God's Son.
Healing might thus be called a counter-dream, which cancels out the dream of sickness in the name of truth, but not in truth itself. Just as forgiveness overlooks all sins that never were accomplished, healing but removes illusions that have not occurred. Just as the real world will arise to take the place of what has never been at all, healing but offers restitution for imagined states and false ideas which dreams embroider into pictures of the truth.
Yet think not healing is unworthy of your function here. For anti-Christ becomes more powerful than Christ to those who dream the world is real. The body seems to be more solid and more stable than the mind. And love becomes a dream, while fear remains the one reality that can be seen and justified and fully understood.
Just as forgiveness shines away all sin and the real world will occupy the place of what you made, so healing must replace the fantasies of sickness which you hold before the simple truth. When sickness has been seen to disappear in spite of all the laws that hold it cannot but be real, then questions have been answered. And the laws can be no longer cherished nor obeyed.
Healing is freedom. For it demonstrates that dreams will not prevail against the truth. Healing is shared. And by this attribute it proves that laws unlike the ones which hold that sickness is inevitable are more potent than their sickly opposites. Healing is strength. For by its gentle hand is weakness overcome, and minds that were walled off within a body free to join with other minds, to be forever strong.
Healing, forgiveness, and the glad exchange of all the world of sorrow for a world where sadness cannot enter, are the means by which the Holy Spirit urges you to follow Him. His gentle lessons teach how easily salvation can be yours; how little practice you need undertake to let His laws replace the ones you made to hold yourself a prisoner to death. His life becomes your own, as you extend the little help He asks in freeing you from everything that ever caused you pain.
And as you let yourself be healed, you see all those around you, or who cross your mind, or whom you touch, or those who seem to have no contact with you, healed along with you. Perhaps you will not recognize them all, nor realize how great your offering to all the world, when you let healing come to you. But you are never healed alone. And legions upon legions will receive the gift that you receive when you are healed.
Those who are healed become the instruments of healing. Nor does time elapse between the instant they are healed, and all the grace of healing it is given them to give. What is opposed to God does not exist, and who accepts it not within his mind becomes a haven where the weary can remain to rest. For here is truth bestowed, and here are all illusions brought to truth.
Would you not offer shelter to God's Will? You but invite your Self to be at home. And can this invitation be refused? Ask the inevitable to occur, and you will never fail. The other choice is but to ask what cannot be to be, and this can not succeed. Today we ask that only truth will occupy our minds; that thoughts of healing will this day go forth from what is healed to what must yet be healed, aware that they will both occur as one.
We will remember, as the hour strikes, our function is to let our minds be healed, that we may carry healing to the world, exchanging curse for blessing, pain for joy, and separation for the peace of God. Is not a minute of the hour worth the giving to receive a gift like this? Is not a little time a small expense to offer for the gift of everything?
Who is my only Self.
as they are healed with me.


CapMan has raised more than €400 million new capital under management since October 2018.
"Our core business developed strongly in 2018. Fees from fund and investment management and services grew by 22 per cent in 2018. The growth will continue strong in 2019. Since October 2018, we have raised more than MEUR 400 new capital under management. This new capital will contribute over MEUR 4 in fee income to CapMan annually, in full already in 2019. The growth of our service business will also continue strong.
Fee-based profitability was more than MEUR 6 in 2018, growing more than 100 per cent from 2017. We expect this positive trend to continue in 2019 following growth in management fees and continued good cost efficiency. Stronger fee-based profitability enables us to smooth out fluctuations in profitability and improve the predictability of our business.
We have today announced an acquisition of JAM Advisors, a Finnish company providing reporting, analytics and wealth management services. The acquisition supports our objective to develop specialised, high value-add services, while expanding our customer networks. CapMan's objective is to grow JAM's services significantly and scale up its commercial operations in full. We also seek to offer select private assets products to JAM's customer base in addition to the existing service portfolio.
Despite the positive developments in the Management Company and Services businesses, the general weak development of the capital markets in the last few months of the year had a negative impact on the fair value of our trading portfolio, and by extension on the fourth quarter result for the Group. We have sold more than MEUR 35 (net) in shares and other market instruments from our trading portfolio and invested proceeds mainly in our own new products in accordance with our strategy. Market investments are not part of CapMan's core business, and we aim to continue reducing the trading portfolio during 2019. Investments into own funds and products have performed well, returning approx. 10 per cent in 2018.

Court overturns Boston Marathon bomber's death sentence
By Alanna Durkin Richer
Court overturns Boston Marathon bomber's death sentence
A federal appeals court on Friday overturned the death sentence of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the man convicted in the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing.
The three-judge panel of the 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Boston issued the decision more than six months after arguments were heard in the case.
The April 15, 2013, attack killed three people and injured more than 260 others.
Tsarnaev's lawyers had argued that intense media coverage had made it impossible to have a fair trial in Boston. They also pointed to social media posts from two jurors suggesting they harbored strong opinions even before the 2015 trial started.
The appeals judges, in a hearing on the case in early December, devoted a significant number of questions to the juror bias argument.
They asked why the two jurors had not been dismissed, or at least why the trial judge had not asked them follow-up questions after the posts came to light on the eve of the trial.
Execution methods used in the United States
Although lethal injection is most common, many states offer alternative methods to execution.
The judges noted that the Boston court has a longstanding rule obligating such an inquiry.
Tsarnaev's lawyers say one of the jurors, who would go on to become the jury's foreperson, or chief spokesperson, published two dozen tweets in the wake of the bombings. One post after Tsarnaev's capture called him a "piece of garbage."
Tsarnaev was convicted on 30 charges, including conspiracy and use of a weapon of mass destruction. He's been serving his sentence in a high-security supermax prison in Colorado.
His brother, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, was killed in a gun battle with police days after the two brothers detonated two pressure cooker bombs near the marathon finish line.


As a student in the Sacred Music program, you will receive excellent musical training for church music ministries. You will study under qualified faculty who are excited to see you succeed whether it be in performing, leading congregational singing, or leading choirs and orchestras.
In addition to the intense music focus, you are also given the quality Bible education Faith is known for. This Bible training prepares you for excellence in music and in church leadership. Because of the academic excellence of Faith as well as our accreditation, a degree in Sacred Music also opens up opportunities for further study of music in graduate schools and conservatories.
I greatly appreciated the unique opportunity afforded me at Faith to receive sound biblical instruction alongside quality musical opportunities. Having a desire to not only use music in church ministry, but also to be immersed in the broader musical scene, I jumped into basically all of the musical opportunities Faith had to offer. I played in the orchestra, sang in choir, took lessons in violin and piano, led singing in chapels, and was even able to fill in conducting and substitute teaching. I was fortunate enough to travel to Europe on the chorale's Germany and Netherlands tour and also to cross the U.S. twice in a van on a traveling singing team. I still glean from my various experiences and education at Faith in the ministry God has called me to now.

The topic for Week 23 in Amy Coffin's and Geneablogger's 52 Weeks of Personal Genealogy and History series is Books. What was your favorite book, or who was your favorite author from your childhood? What do you like to read now? Books or other formats?
This is the topic I've been waiting for all year…books have been my passion, and a source of delight and sometimes envy all my life. However I admit that as I'm just emerging from two weeks of cataloguing and (mostly) packing up my library, both family history and general, in preparation for new carpets and paint, I'm feeling a little less enthused about the hundreds of books I have. Mind you, it's a case of be careful what you wish for: as a child I was soooo envious of a neighbour's glass-doored book case complete with aged books. With a book in your hand, you're never at a loss for inspiration.
A birthday or Christmas without a book would definitely have been a disappointment. Remember those compilation books: the Girls Own Annual and the like which were around a lot "back when"? I still have some of my old books from childhood to share with my grandchildren. There were also quite a few books which had a fold-out element, like this one called Kittikins Capers.
I think my favourite book as a child was Heidi as it combined two things: the concept of a different world far away (with snow!) and a Germanic influence which fitted with my name of origin. It seemed quite quaint for a child to be high in the mountains with only her grandfather, a friend and some goats for company. I still have the copy I was given as a child, as well as a copy on Kindle.
As I grew older I also liked the Trixie Belden books and crime novels have been a consistent thread in my reading life. Mind you, I'm not often good at sussing out the baddie. However it was then, and is now, rare for me to start and book and just "give up" on it though occasionally one will be put aside for a while. None of this is to suggest that I remember all that I read –I certainly don't, but I tell myself it's all buried somewhere in the grey matter. I loved it when our neighbours took me to the local library, which was some distance away, and I could indulge in a much wider range of books.
Then when I was I was a teenager, and at school in the city, I could join the School of Arts library in Ann St, Brisbane and uncover more books and ideas. What I didn't know then, and probably wouldn't have cared about given I was science-oriented, was that it "was originally known as the Servants Home which provided accomodation for single adult females who had migrated to Queensland and were awaiting employment as domestic servants"[i] something I'd like to learn more about. In the 1960s it had a very boring exterior without the wonderful lacework and verandahs and with shops at the entry. Inside it was a fabulous old library (from c1878) with a mezzanine-style gallery which ran around the walls above the main area, and ladders to get to the books. I loved it!

One summer I read all of the leather-bound Charles Dickens novels that my cousin was storing in my bedroom….one way to amuse oneself for six weeks. These days I like to read something that's a bit different. I still read crime for its escapism and have a severe dose of "author-itis", reading everything published by my favourite authors. Of course history books feature prominently in my collection these days to complement my family and local history research. While I did enjoy Kate Grenville's The Secret River, I enjoyed the background book, Searching for the Secret River, even more. The things that struck me were the length of time and craftmanship to bring this book to birth. I'm sure most family historians could identify with the search behind the book and be amused by her protests that she wasn't one of those grey-haired family historians (I'd provide the precise quote except that the book is currently packed away but that was the essence of it).
Another book I thoroughly enjoyed was Diane Armstrong's Voyage of Their Life, for the innovation of tracing the story of the Post-War passengers on board the SS Derna.
Nothing really beats holding a book in your hand, but this year I've ventured into the realms of e-reading. I've bought a Kindle which is light-weight and long-lived, but isn't as enjoyable to read from as my husband's iPad which I "borrow": perhaps part of the pleasure of the iPad is being able to see the covers in living colour, giving more a sense of reading a book. However, the sheer convenience of being able to go on holiday with a swag of books but with no additional load to carry is wonderful. It also means I don't have that eternal compromise over bookshelf storage. A further benefit is that even if the flight is delayed you've still got lots to read…except in the limbo land before and during landing/takeoff.

There's nothing like the smell and feel of a book especially a new one, although I am an early adopter of most technologies I am dragging the chain with e-books.
Although I have Kindle and Kobo software on my tablet I have yet to download and read a e-book!
Thanks for sharing your experiences; your post broought back fond memories of a subscription library at Kings Cross, NSW that I used to visit with my Mum before we moved to an area that the mobile library visited.
Thanks for your feedback on this topic. Like you I love a book above all, but I have to say that you may be, well not quite, converted when you read one on your Kindle/tablet. It's the flexibility and having multiple books with you while on the move that are the big pluses.
Hi, Cass – I enjoyed reading your book recollections.

As a continuation of the services already present in the other products of the FRONTeO range, Banks can now have a highly secure solution to provide third parties with information on customer accounts and to make payments from external applications.
The security requirement, real time for payment services and account data, needs to adapt or even completely rethink the IS and therefore the internal processes. This investment may be substantial depending on the type of IS in place.
Our ability to control all the business and technology components required in the context of PSD2 is a decisive asset in limiting the cost and timeframe of such a project for the Bank. Our consultants can intervene as from now for advisory missions targeted on this new issue.
By understanding the challenges of each new regulation, we develop our solution in consultation with our customers for a response adapted to the whole market.
FRONTeO PSD2 brings together all the features required to provide a complete and secure response.
We rely on the new architecture of FRONTeO to reinforce our expertise and know-how in front-office banking and meet the new needs of European banks and service providers (TPP). FRONTeO PSD2 fits perfectly in our approach to offer a global omni-channel suite.
says Pierre LEMAIRE, CEO of MAINSYS.
Security is now considered a critical element of trust with customers and partners. This is why FRONTeO PSD2 is built around components that ensure availability and security at the highest level and in line with market standards.
The digital revolution and regulation are transforming financial activity in depth: new services based on usage, explosion of information exchange, optimization of processes ... The PSD2 directive imposes new technical and functional constraints on banks.
FRONTeO PSD2 ensures a quick and cost-effective implementation while guaranteeing constant monitoring of the evolution of the standard.
In the event that the Bank chooses an offensive strategy and wishes to deploy new services based on PSD2 exchanges, FRONTeO PSD2 offers the functionalities dedicated to TPPs for the integration of account information and payment services from other banks. The Bank thus has a unique foundation to develop new services in-house or with the help of Fintechs partners.
FRONTeO PSD2, a complete solution for the rapid implementation of the new PSD2 directive.

Q: Moving the page file to a different folder My Windows 8.1 To Go machine is always popping up saying it's low on memory, so I finally decided to make a page file. The problem is, I was going to make it on my largest hard drive on the computer. That hard drive has Windows 10 on it though, and the Windows 10 automatically created a page file on the hard drive. I didn't know that it did that, and when I tried to make the page file, it told me that pagefile.sys already existed on the drive.
I'm wondering if it's possible to move the page file to a different folder. I'm not saying that I want it to be on a different drive. I need them to both be on the same drive, but one of them needs to be in a different folder so that I can make the other one. Does anyone have a solution? The solution can be for Windows 10 or Windows 8.1. If the solution is for Windows 8.1, then I need to know how to create a page file in a specific folder in a drive. If the solution is for Windows 10, then I need to know how to move an existing page file to a different folder without breaking the OS.

A: You cannot change the folder where is stored the file pagefile.sys,
it's always stored in the root folder.
You can control the drive, so it's possible to create a small partition,
assign it a drive-letter, and move the file to it.
This is done in
Control Panel > System > Advanced system settings > Advanced >
Performance Settings > Advanced > Virtual memory Change.

It's exam time and that means hours and hours of sitting while staring at a book or computer screen. Taking short exercise breaks is a great way to refresh your mind and feel rejuvenated. Hopefully, you can still make it to the gym like usual. But if you feel trapped in your room or the study lounge, don't hesitate to push out some of these moves!
For these moves, you don't need any equipment – you can just use your bodyweight! You can tone from head to toe by just taking a few steps away from your desk.
Just remember, both gyms are operating have different hours during exam time. Click here for the schedule. Also, there are fewer group fitness classes then normal so check out those updated schedules as well! While you're studying, don't forget to eat healthy snacks for focus, take breaks here and there and stay hydrated (especially if you're drinking a lot of caffeine!).

Oscars 2017: Jimmy Kimmel's monologue sounded a lot like a Jimmy Kimmel Live! monologue
The host opened the show with some basic jokes and an earnest plea for unity.
By Caroline Framke@carolineframke Feb 26, 2017, 9:55pm EST
Share All sharing options for: Oscars 2017: Jimmy Kimmel's monologue sounded a lot like a Jimmy Kimmel Live! monologue
For his 2017 Oscars monologue, Jimmy Kimmel stuck to the basics.
Though many awards show hosts like to kick off their shows with a pretaped bit and/or musical number — like Jimmy Fallon did at the Golden Globes in January — that's not exactly in line with Kimmel's dry style. So instead, he let Justin Timberlake open the show with a splashy performance of "Can't Stop the Feeling," his Oscar-nominated song from Trolls (aren't movies magical?), before walking onto the Oscars stage and delivering a brief monologue that would've been right at home during an episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live!
There were references to the supposed Hollywood bubble, the expected shoutout to Kimmel's long-running "feud" with Matt Damon, and a whole string of jokes about the Oscar-nominated movies that many Americans probably haven't seen.
Still, some of Kimmel's punchlines had sharper teeth than those softballs — and as you might expect, many of them were about today's political climate. "I don't have to tell anybody the country is divided right now," he began, "and I've been getting a lot of advice, people telling me, 'You need to say something [at the Oscars] to unite us' ... I can't do that." Then Kimmel then looked out at the audience. "There's only one Braveheart in this room," he said as the camera to cut to Mel Gibson, who was nominated for Best Director for Hacksaw Ridge. "And he's not going to unite us, either, okay?"
However, once he got that uncomfortable Mel Gibson quip out of the way, Kimmel pivoted to an earnest plea for unity anyway:
There are millions and millions watching right now, and if every one of you took a minute to reach out to one person you disagree with ... and have a positive, considerate conversation — not as liberals or conservatives, but as Americans. If we would all do that, we would make America great again. We really could. It starts with us.
From there, the most immediately controversial jokes Kimmel made weren't about politics at all. One was a halfhearted reference to a pivotal Moonlight sex scene that basically amounted to "LOL handjobs!" and the other was a deeply sarcastic riff in which he referred to Meryl Streep as "uninspiring and overrated." Naturally, the Streep jokes earned a standing ovation anyway, because after all, she is Meryl Streep.
All told, Kimmel's monologue was ... fine. Again, it wasn't very different from what Kimmel does four nights a week on his late-night show, though to be sure, he doesn't usually have to deliver his monologue in the face of whoever he's lightly mocking (unless that person is Matt Damon).
In fact, Kimmel's Emmys monologue from September 2016 was much more pointed, especially when he specifically called out Apprentice producer Mark Burnett as responsible for the rise of Donald Trump and declared, "If Donald Trump gets elected, and he builds that wall, the first person we're throwing over it is Mark Burnett." But hey: Maybe Kimmel just had more to say about television versus all those movies he hasn't seen.

Fátima sanctuary
11 April, 2015 • 0 Comment
Fátima sanctuary is located in the center of Fátima – is one of the largest sanctuaries in the world, with more than 5 million visitors each year. The largest pilgrimage occurs on the 12 and 13th May and in October. This Modern church of the Sanctuary was built in 2007 it is 125 meters in diameter.
It was the religious phenomena of the Apparitions of Nossa Senhora de Fátima to the shepherds that led the city's growth, now with about 10 thousand inhabitants.
According to the legend, a celestial 'lady shining brighter than the sun' appeared before the three children, stressing the importance of praying the rosary and informing them that she would reappear on the same date, and at the same time, for five consecutive months. She promised to reveal her identity and perform a miracle on the day of their last meeting.
During the succeeding months, Our Lady delivered three prophecies to the children. On 13th October, at the appointed time, some 70,000 people gathered to await the promised apparition. As the people prayed the rosary, Our Lady appeared and performed what is referred to as the 'Miracle of the Sun': the sun began to spin wildly resembling a rolling ball of fire and the heavy rain that had been falling suddenly ceased and the people's wet garments were miraculously dried.
Visit the imposing neoclassical basilica that stands in the heart of Fátima's sanctuary and the tombs of the shepherd children that lie within. The small Chapel of Apparitions is also noteworthy as this marks the site where Our Lady of Fátima made her appearances. Be sure to see the large block of the Berlin Wall situated near the chapel (a symbol of the end of communism, as revealed in one of Fátima's secrets) and visit the houses of the shepherd children in the town of Aljustrel. Walking the Stations of the Cross is one of Fátima's most popular processions, leading faithful pilgrims to the 14 chapels that represent different stages of the Passion of Christ.
Travelling from Lisbon by bus, go to the central bus station in Sete-Rios (Praça Marechal Humberto Delgado, Rua das Laranjeiras). You can either take a taxi to the station or take the Metro to the Jardim Zoológico stop – the bus station is right outside. Buy a ticket at a ticket office in the station. Buses leave for Fátima approximately hourly from 8am to 8pm. The bus journey costs about €10 each way, takes about 90 minutes and arrives close to the shrine.
