An Adolf Hitler-stached New Jersey man was busted with a stash of guns and ammo while lurking in the woods.
Lacey police said the heavily armed Hitler-wannabe was giving off hints he was a "possible white supremacist" — if his moustache and haircut weren't enough.
Bruce J. Post III, a convicted felon, was found with an AK-47, a pistol, eight 30-round high capacity magazines, one 100-round drum magazine, and many other types of ammunition when police arrived at the off-road spot in the woods on Sunday.
He was also wearing combat gear when cops found him.
Officers also found shovels and tarps in the Nazi sympathizer's car.
Post was linked to a 1995 murder of Andrew Whited, who was brutally stabbed to death by his younger brother, Joseph.
Post was convicted for cleaning up the bloody scene after Whited was stabbed 29 times and cut across the throat.
The killing was the subject of "Evil Kin: Brothers in Arms," an Investigation Discovery documentary.
"Post was known to own a Nazi uniform, and to don it and walk through the streets, sometimes goose-stepping throught the streets," the show explained.
Because of Post's notorious history in Trenton and Hamilton, police conducted a thorough search throughout the area after finding the shovels in his car, Lacy chief David Paprota said in a statement.
Post was charged with five counts of unlawful possession of a weapon, and held on a $400,000 bond.
He was with an unidentified friend, who has not been charged.
The multi-agency task force regularly patrols the wooded area in Lacey and Ocean and was formed after an increasing amount of trespassers in recent weeks.

Q: open javafx application via rest call Does anyone know how to open a JavaFx application via rest requests?
Scenario:
I have a Spring Boot Service that runs on every machine to make a bridge wiht my SPA(Single Page Application) and my comm ports. Thats because SPA cannot talk to the OS.
This communications are made via http requests.
Now I have a problem, I need to make a javafx application that is started via http request, when I call the firts time, it works ok, but if i close the javafx application clicking on 'x' and try to open again I'm getting the following error:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Application launch must not be called more than once

There is a way that when I close the javafx window, it kill the JavaFx Thread, so when I call it again, it start a new Thread?
Or do I need  to keep the Thread and just find a way to reopen my javafx application in the same Thread?
here is my @Controller
@RestController
@RequestMapping("v1/appfx")
public class AppfxController{
    @RequestMapping("")
    private void openJavaFxApp(){
        try{
            MyJavaFxApp.launch(MyJavaFxApp.class);
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            ex.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

And Here is my JavaFx:
public class MyJavaFxApp extends Application {
    private final static Logger log =       LoggerFactory.getLogger(MyJavaFxApp.class);
    private BigDecimal left;
    private String selectedOperator;
    private boolean numberInputting;

    @FXML
    private TextField display;

    public MyJavaFxApp() {
        this.left = BigDecimal.ZERO;
        this.selectedOperator = "";
        this.numberInputting = false;
    }

    @Override
    public void start(Stage stage) throws Exception {
        stage.setTitle("MyJavaFxApp");
        stage.setOnCloseRequest(x -> {
            log.info("closed");
            Platform.exit();
        });
        stage.setResizable(false);
        stage.setScene(new Scene(FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("Test.fxml"))));
        stage.show();
        stage.toFront();
    }

}

Thanks for any help.

67 Nursing Graduates Who Are Needed Now More Than Ever
(MONMOUTH COUNTY, NJ) -- On December 20, 2021, sixty-seven nursing students completed their Associate Degree in Applied Science and received their pins at the Nursing Pinning Ceremony in the new year!
The nursing program at Brookdale Community College is one of the only nine programs in the United States to have its roots in the Cooperative Research Project of Columbia University, which originated the concept of placing nursing education in the community college setting in 1952. The Brookdale nursing program has been accredited since 1979. In addition, since 2009, it has twice been named a "Center of Excellence" by the National League for Nursing, in the category, Creating an Environment that Promotes Pedagogical Excellence.
"The nursing program is the most rigorous programs that we offer here at Brookdale Community College," said President Dr. David Stout addressing the graduates. "You dove into the middle of one of the scariest times and the most dangerous times that we have all encountered and you decided you wanted to be on the front lines. Thank you for being there to heal us, bring our children into the world, to hold our hands when we finally say good bye, and for helping to heal our damaged bodies and our broken hearts. Thank you for dedicating your life to making sure all of us live healthier and happier lives."
The Fall Class of 2021 graduates are entering the health care profession of nursing at the most challenging moment of our history. They had to overcome the challenges of their education during a pandemic to achieve their dreams and goals. The Nursing Pinning Ceremony celebrates and honors the graduates on completing their studies and starting their professional careers. However, it is also an opportunity to express pride and appreciation for the faculty members and staff who worked tirelessly to ensure the best possible education and who showed a commitment to excellence that had no bounds.
"It is a great privilege to share this tradition of marking your transition from nursing student to a member of the profession," said Dr. Jayne Edman, dean of the Health Science Institute. "You showed passion, and a willingness to take risks to help others. You demonstrated remarkable adaptability, grace, determination, and resilience. You gained the skills and knowledge to step into a heath care environment that needs you now more than ever."
Instructor of Nursing, Tara Rostrom-Lorenz, MSN, RN, served as the guest speaker. She spoke about great perseverance, compassion, and inspiration. To the audience of family and friends, she remarked, "The graduates have worked diligently and have earned their honorable nursing pin, they have demonstrated clinical judgement, advocacy, academic excellence, critical thinking, perseverance, grit and of course compassion." To the graduates, she said "You will change lives, and you will impact people every single day in their most vulnerable time, and you will persevere. You are ready!"
Shante Bracy, one of the nursing graduates, was the farewell speaker. To all the clinical instructors, she said, "Thank you for going above and beyond to advocate for us to have the best clinical experience." To her fellow nursing graduates, she said, "Remember you are resilient. It took strength and a lot of flexibility to persevere through this program during uncertain times. You are qualified, you belong and you are more than enough. Take heart were ever you go, because truly, nursing is a work of art."

Fun war eine wöchentlich erscheinende Zeitschrift, die zwischen 1861 und 1901 existierte. Sie gilt als eine typische Zeitschrift des viktorianischen Zeitalters und stand zeit ihres Erscheinens in Konkurrenz zur wesentlich erfolgreicheren Zeitschrift Punch. "Mr. Punch und sein Hund", ein regelmäßig veröffentlichter Cartoon der Zeitschrift Punch, wurde beispielsweise ebenso regelmäßig durch den Cartoon "Mr. Fun und seine Katze" der Zeitschrift Fun veralbert.

1861 wurde die Zeitschrift Fun von dem Bühnenautor Henry James Byron gegründet und erschien erstmals am 21. September. Zwischen 1861 und 1865 fungierte der Gründer Byron auch als Herausgeber und gab danach seine Ämter in der Redaktion auf. 1870 verkaufte Byron seine Zeitschrift an die Geschwister Dabziel, die sie ihrerseits zwei Jahre später an ihren Neffen Gilbert Dabziel (1853–1930) abgaben.

Später musste die Zeitschrift aus finanziellen Gründen mit der ebenfalls wöchentlich erscheinenden Zeitschrift Sketchy Bits fusionieren. Unter dem Titel Sketchy Bits erschien sie noch bis zum 10. August 1901 und stellte damit ihr Erscheinen ein.

GitHub Takes a Page From Jerry Seinfeld's Calendar
Matthew Roberts
Back when Jerry Seinfeld was still a touring comedian, aspiring comic Brad Issac asked him for advice.
Seinfeld told him the best way to write better jokes was to write every day, as Issac recalled years later on the blog Lifehacker. To maintain the habit, Seinfeld told Issac, he should buy one of those big wall calendars that has the entire year printed on it and hang it in a prominent place. Each day you write, Seinfeld explained, you put a big red "X" on the day, and pretty soon, you'll have a big chain of red X's.
"Don't break the chain," he said.
The advice has become legendary – not just among comedians but with software hackers as well. Some have designed printable calendars based on the idea, while others have built mobile apps to help people take advantage of this system. And on Tuesday, GitHub – the popular service for building and hosting software – introduced its own version of the Seinfeld streak calendar as part of an update to its profile pages. Now, all GitHub users have a streak calendar on their profile detailing their contribution history.
GitHub also added lists detailing users' recent activity, the projects they're contributing to, and which projects are the most popular.
But how useful is any of this information? The crowd at Hacker News – a regular online hangout for coders – is underwhelmed. "Not all commits are created equal and I don't find this new 'contributions' calendar/graph at all useful," wrote a commenter using the handle clobber. "You still cannot get a good snapshot of contributions for users that are members of organizations."
Others called it "gamification," the process of adding game mechanics to other software, which, as we've written before, may actually decrease motivation by replacing intrinsic rewards with extrinsic ones.
Still, it's early days for these new tools. Finer-grained controls – or the ability to hide the tools altogether – may be coming.

SPORTS | WOMEN'S SOCCER
Duke women's soccer breezes past UNLV for program's 400th victory
Ella Stevens found the back of the net Thursday.
Photo by Michelle Tai | The Chronicle
By Jonathan Browning
September 6, 2019 | 10:52am EDT
They say what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas, but the Las Vegas-based Rebels are surely hoping that what happened in Durham Thursday night stays in Durham.
The weather may have been gloomy, but that didn't stop the 12th-ranked Blue Devils from making history, as they secured their 400th win in program history with a victory against UNLV in the 2019 Duke Nike Classic. It was Duke's most complete game of the season, matching their offensive output from their highest scoring game of the season and pairing it with another clean sheet, walking away with a 3-0 victory.
"We did a good job finding some free players out there and moving the ball," said Duke head coach Robbie Church. "The speed of play was good and it led to us creating opportunities. The real negative I would say is we left way too many scoring opportunities out there, especially in the first half. We should've been up four or five in the first half. We had some really quality chances and we didn't finish those."
Despite the historic win, Duke (3-1-1) did not escape the contest unscathed. Just 20 minutes into the match, star sophomore defender Delaney Graham went down with a leg injury, needing assistance off the field. She was replaced by junior Remi Swartz and never returned to the game.
Only minutes after Swartz entered, Duke's first offensive breakthrough occurred, with sophomore midfielder Mackenzie Pluck chipping the ball over the Rebel keeper off assists from Tess Boade and Swartz, giving the Blue Devils an early lead.
After scoring what was Duke's first goal in a first half this season, Pluck quickly proved she wasn't content with just the one. Fifteen minutes after the first, another opportunity arose off a long pass from behind the midfield line from freshman forward Emily Duerr. Pluck beat out two Rebel defenders in a foot race and maneuvered around the goalie, who had come out of the box, and easily slotted it into an empty net for her third goal in two games.
"Having a goal in the last game was definitely good to visualize for the next game," said Pluck. "Know[ing] that you can get there and having that first goal always helps in the season so I think it helped a lot this game."
After a flurry of opportunities in the first five minutes of the second half, it was only a matter of time before Duke struck again and sealed the game. 10 minutes into the second half, sophomore forward Marykate McGuire put it past the keeper off an assist from lone senior starter Ella Stevens. This was McGuire's third goal of the season, matching her total goal count from her freshman campaign.
The rest of the game didn't see much offensive action, but instead saw a flurry of substitutions. Confident that his team could hold their lead, head coach Robbie Church subbed in nearly every freshman player on the roster for what was, for many of them, their first collegiate minutes. Most notably among them was freshman goalkeeper Ruthie Jones, sister of Duke's former star quarterback Daniel Jones.
"It was great to get everyone in the game," said Church. "Our players have really been working hard but unfortunately this last week we haven't been able to get some of the younger players in and get them quality minutes. They did what they were supposed to do [tonight] - they added positive energy to us, they added to the game, so very very happy with that."
Despite Duke's offense getting much of the attention after their recent revival, one would be amiss to ignore its defense, anchored by redshirt junior goalkeeper Brooke Heinsohn. Heinsohn has been dominant this year and today was no different, making one of her most important saves of the season. Just minutes after Duke scored their first goal, UNLV (2-2) took it down the field and had a near one-on-one matchup with Heinsohn. Despite the rain in her eyes, she punched the ball away, preserving both Duke's lead and their momentum.
"We're getting better and just looking forward to finishing the tournament," said Church. "We'll look at ourselves again: are we still building with our diamonds, are we finding the free player that's open, what are we doing in the final third, can it be better decisions in the final third. And for sure composure, just composure. We got to start the recovery and make some tweaks and get ready for LSU on Sunday."
Duke faces another quick turnaround as they play LSU on Sunday at Koskinen to finish out the Duke Nike Classic. After that, the Blue Devils will have a week off before returning to the field.

Donald Trump has cemented his lead in the Republican race for the presidential nomination, and after leaving Super Tuesday as the biggest winner, it might be too late to catch up. Who is to blame for this? Most likely, the USA's polarized political system and the fragmentation of the Republican Party.
When Donald Trump first announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination, most people believed it to be a joke. The real estate magnate, beauty pageant owner, and television personality had close to no political experience, except for a brief run to become the presidential nominee of the Reform Party in 2000. He has delivered few policy ideas, and even fewer that can be considered serious and realistic, and has instead focused his campaign on saying that he will make America win again, with little or no implication of what that really means and how he is going to achieve it.
Still, as the results of Super Tuesday were reported, it was clear that he further consolidated his comfortable lead in the Republican race, and it is now uncertain that any candidate will have a realistic chance of overtaking him before the Republican National Convention in mid-July. This can only mean one thing: Republican voters have dropped eligibility as a criterion for presidency. From suggesting to ban all Muslims from entering the country and to build a wall on the border of Mexico (which somehow Mexico will pay for), to insulting the looks of his opponents in the bid for presidency, constantly dropping misogynist and racist comments, and failing to clearly disavow the support of a former Ku Klux Klan leader, Donald Trump has done just about everything that should compel voters to turn their backs on him and let him return to the business sector. But his outrageous remarks seem to have enticed rather than scared away voters, leading to the previously apolitical to come forward and carry him to the Republican nomination. How can this be?
The reason may be the polarization of American politics. During Obama's presidency, the conflict between Democrats and Republicans have been more pronounced than ever before. In 2013, the US government entered a shutdown, since the divided Congress and President Obama could not agree on the funding of government business, a scenario that was almost re-enacted in 2015. Furthermore, the Senate has been reluctant to conduct hearings of Obama's new appointments to the federal government, meaning they cannot be confirmed and begin their work. This has been going on throughout Obama's years as president, although the most prominent case is the recent refusal of the Senate Republicans to hear any Supreme Court nominee put forward by the administration.
This polarization has hindered the administration from working effectively, and turned every minor issue into a huge fight between Democrats and Republicans. American politics has become perceived as more about winning elections than governing, and made significant changes to the way the country is run close to impossible. Moreover, politics has become seen as an industry, where contributors are willing to spend millions to make sure that their politicians win a seat in Washington D.C., where they can block legislation deemed harmful to the contributor.
This, in turn, has led to the alienation of voters, who have lost faith in the mainstream politicians, and instead turned to new voices and ideas. Trump's critique of the politicians in D.C. and their dependencies on donations for their campaign can be seen as such a voice: by coming from outside the distrusted political class, people have more faith in him adhering to the people's concern and actually listening.
The same trend can be seen among the Democrats, where Bernie Sanders have exceeded expectations in gathering the leftist anti-establishment vote, and forced Hillary Clinton to work for her delegates. But in the Democratic Party, Clinton, the very definition of establishment, is still in a clear lead for the nomination. If it is the polarized political system that is the cause of the anti-establishment sentiments, why has Sanders success not been comparable to Trump's?
The difference lies within the parties. The Democratic elite have united behind Clinton, with 40 senators endorsing her campaign, and none endorsing Sanders. Other potential candidates, such as Joe Biden and Elisabeth Warren, stepped aside at an early stage, allowing the mainstream Democrats to put their internal differences aside and join together in promoting Clinton.
Meanwhile, the Republican Party is fragmented, and there is a lot of bickering between its different factions. The internal fighting between fiscal conservatives, the religious right, and the Tea Party movement, among others, have divided the Republican Party, and prevented them from gathering behind a single candidate. Up until recently, there were four mainstream candidates – Marco Rubio, Jeb Bush, John Kasich, and Chris Christie – all with support from different actors within the party. Belatedly, the mainstream Republicans seem to have agreed upon Marco Rubio, but he faces an uphill battle against Trump, especially as Ted Cruz remains in the race, attracting far-right votes.
This internal fight has led to Republican anti-establishment sentiments not being directed only towards D.C., but to their own party elite as well. This is why Trump is in the lead, while Sanders is still fighting from below: Trump entered a fragmented party where no one trusted the own leadership, while Sanders entered a party where the elite still enjoys the loyalty of its members.
This is the Republicans' problem. They need to earn back the trust from their voters, and the only way to do that is to reunite the party, and stop the infighting. The party elite seem to have realized that: there has been news of meetings to discuss how the party can gather behind a single candidate. But it might already be too late: once they are finally ready to unite, the only candidate left to unite behind may be Donald Trump.

The three were joined in the sophomore season by recurring cast members Nathan Fillion (TV's Castle) and Suzanne Cryer (TV's Silicon Valley) who both made wonderful additions to the cast and subsequently became series regulars, remaining present up until the end when the show was cancelled during its fourth season. Filled with memorable characters, plenty of laughs and a surprising amount of heart, not to mention more continuing storylines than is commonly the case in sitcoms (especially when it aired), 'Two Guys and a Girl' is a fan favorite that is certain to hold up for quite some time and should be a true pleasure to relive in its entirety on DVD.
Fans of this hilarious and heartwarming sitcom (or any of its key cast members) will almost surely want to be certain to pick up a copy of this 11-Disc DVD Box Set of 'Two Guys and a Girl: The Complete Series' from Shout! Factory. The release delivers fairly solid standard definition video presentations on each of the 81 episodes in the series and capable Dolby Digital Stereo soundtracks, which while not superb, are surely a result of the source and the best quality available for the series. While many may be slightly disappointed by the lack of any supplemental material included on the release, the reasonable price for this 11 disc set and the inclusion of all four seasons should likely still make it a definite must own for many of the fans.
Overall, while it may not be an absolutely perfect release, the series finally being released in its entirety via a solid Complete Series box set is certainly reason to rejoice and fans of the fantastic sitcom 'Two Guys and a Girl' should be thrilled to finally have the opportunity to own the series in its entirety on DVD, and for them this 11 disc box set from Shout! Factory should be a definite must own. Those who enjoy a great a sitcom and never had the pleasure of this one may also want to seriously consider giving it a whirl; you'll likely be quite pleased you decided to do so.
The DVD release of 'Two Guys and a Girl: The Complete Series' features a 4×3 presentation on every episode in the series, utilizing the 1.33:1 aspect ratio in which they were originally broadcast. These full screen standard definition video presentations are fairly solid in most respects, although there is some occasional video noise and distortion present, most likely a result of the source and never overbearing or reaching the point in which it detracts from the overall viewing experience; everything occurring on screen always remaining discernible and fairly clean. Overall, while not perfect, these are pretty decent video presentations that should certainly do the job at the very least.
The DVD release includes a 192 kbps 2.0 channel Dolby Digital Stereo soundtrack on all 81 episodes in the series. The audio presentations sound pretty great for what they are and deliver consistently sharp and clean stereo presentations on every episode, perfectly balancing all of the auditory elements within the two channels and never resulting in any dialogue which may be occurring simultaneously with other auditory elements to become distorted or rendered inaudible. Overall, these are highly capable 2.0 stereo Dolby Digital Soundtracks that deliver in every way required of them.
The DVD release of 'Two Guys and a Girl: The Complete Series' doesn't include any supplemental material whatsoever.

Intelligent business people that run small and medium-sized business are still ignorant about digital marketing. I don't mean ignorant in a malicious way because these are typically intelligent people (like someone who didn't know that a new iPhone just came out). I meet with them every week and a majority of them either are grossly misinformed or have been burnt in the past by an "SEO" or "Social Media" company. Those burns still hurt so instead of educating themselves, most of them continue to make bad decisions when it comes to digital marketing.
I've been meeting with the upper management of a fast-growing industrial manufacturing company here in Dallas regarding upgrading their website and on-going digital marketing. Because they are friends of mine, they frequently ask me to look at the proposals they get.
Before I go into the shockingly bad proposals, let me explain three things: 1) What the true purpose of a website is. 2) What they think they need. And 2) What the industrial manufacturing company really needs.
What is the purpose of a website? The purpose is to tell visitors 3 things: 1. Here's what we do. 2. This is what it will do for you. 3. Here's what to do next. Wrapping those 3 things into one sentence: The primary purpose of a website is to capture leads you can follow up with later.
What do they actually need? Yes, they need a beautiful "agency level" website. But I explained to them that they don't need an overpriced agency to build it. I'm also trying to explain to them that on-going digital marketing is critical. Their website can't remain static and they have to show their current customers and prospects that they are the thought leaders by consistently providing content.
Again, keep in mind that they requested proposals for an elegant, but simple and easy to use website.
Proposal #1: $200,000. I was shocked. This company was asking for $200,000 to build a simple website. Thankfully that proposal went into the trash.
Proposal #2: $92,000. I was still shocked, but they were not and have met with this company 3 or 4 times in person already. The proposal included line items for "Assessment and Planning" as well as "Custom Programming." This proposal did not include any initial on-page SEO and zero on-going marketing. Really?? A line item for planning!!
My friends told me that they didn't want some "basic WordPress theme website." That was obviously the argument the $92,000 website agency was using in their favor.
My response was that there's a big difference between a "custom-tailored" website and a "custom programmed" website. Both agencies were going to create beautiful, effective, custom-tailored website. But our agency was going to use WordPress as the CMS and avoid any custom programming. Why? So they could easily add content, manage the website and own the website. Then they could not be held captive by the agency that built the website.
No more scamming! Get What you Need! Nothing more.
They don't need to spend $92,000. They can get exactly what they need (and more) for $20,000.
If you want to know if your website was worth the price you paid for it, let us help you find out with your free Website Analysis. We'll do a 10-point audit that will analyze the effectiveness of your website and send you 3 recommendations to get a few quick wins.

Subject: [CPEO-MEF] EXPANSION: Remote Training Site Warner Springs (RTSWS), eastern San Diego County, CA
U.S. Bureau of Land Management
California Desert District
News Release No. CA-CDD-09-52
BLM to Authorize Navy Training on Public Land in Eastern San Diego County
The Navy has released an environmental assessment (EA) for public review on the proposed action to expand the Remote Training Site Warner Springs (RTSWS) located in eastern San Diego County.
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Palm Springs-South Coast Field Office has authorized the use of 609 acres of public land as part of the proposed expansion and realignment of the training areas which also includes U.S. Forest Service (USFS) and Vista Irrigation District (VID) lands.
The RTSWS is currently located approximately 45 miles northeast of San Diego and is managed by the Navy as part of Naval Base Coronado currently on USFS and VID lands. The primary tenant and user of the RTSWS is Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape (SERE) West. The primary purpose for the RTSWS is to conduct SERE training, with a secondary purpose of supporting training activities for Naval Special Warfare (NSW) personnel, including clandestine insertion, reconnaissance, surveillance and extraction training.
Although the proposed action would extend military training activities onto land not currently used for that purpose, the action will not change the general public use of or recreational access to public lands as they now exist.
The EA can be viewed at: https://www.cnic.navy.mil/coronado/index.htm. The public review period will close on July 27, 2009.
For further information regarding the BLM portion of the EA, contact: Greg Hill, planning & environmental coordinator, BLM Palm Springs-South Coast Field Office (760) 833-7100. For information regarding the Navy EA, contact: Teresa Hall, environmental planner, NAVFAC SW at (619) 556-7315.

Q: FeedWordPress cron job code FeedWordPress (RSS fetcher) plugin of WordPress is working well, but it doesn't have an option to update RSS every 5 minutes (default is 60 minutes) so the only way is clicking the UPDATE NOW button manually.
I am new and some guys told me to trigger it every 5 minutes using a cron job, so I tried that in cpanel
First I tried this
curl http://domain.com/?update_feedwordpress=true > dev/null

but was getting this error
/bin/sh: dev/null: No such file or directory

Second I tried this
wget http://domain.com/?update_feedwordpress=1

but now I'm getting this error
/bin/sh: /usr/bin/wget: Permission denied

(I used my domain.com in that place)
Any correct/exact working code?

A: You can use this code:
/usr/local/bin/curl --silent -L  "http://example.com/?update_feedwordpress=1" >/dev/null 2>&1

where you should replace example.com with your domain name.

A: Null device is /dev/null
The /usr/bin/wget  does not seems to have permission to execute for the current user.
It may be easier to write a script (say mydebug.sh ) and run the script with cron

id
ls -l /usr/bin/wget
curl ...

Then check for any obvious errors due to permissions.

Since they first opened their doors for business nine years ago, Nick's Auto Sales has made quite a name for themselves in the Fargo-Moorhead community. The locally owned dealership hasn't relied on flashy advertising campaigns or marketing gimmicks to build their collection of quality pre-owned cars, trucks, and SUVs for sale from the four they started out with to the upward of 50 they now offer at any given time. Rather, the people at Nick's focus on how they may best serve each and every one of their customers, one sale at a time.
The value that Nick's represents begins with how they source the pre-owned vehicles they offer. Nick's keeps a team of professional and experienced buyers on staff to determinedly pursue the best deals they can find throughout the Midwest. Whether they find one at an auction, through a private seller, or by any other means available to them, the low prices for which they source great pre-owned vehicles translate to low prices for anyone who visits their lot in Moorhead.
As anyone who has ever bought a pre-owned vehicle in the past would attest, it can feel risky to inherit the former owner's problems after the sale. No one knows this better than Nick's — but they would rather it not be that way. That's why they have a full, state of the art automotive repair center on their premises where their team of career mechanics thoroughly inspect every vehicle upon its arrival. Once they have assessed a vehicle's condition, they then go about providing every repair it needs to become as close to new again as possible. The result of their work is that when you buy a pre-owned vehicle from Nick's you're getting it in the best shape that it could possibly be in, from its brakes to its steering to its suspension to its tires.
Nick's low and fair prices for peak condition pre-owned vehicles have earned them a great many fans throughout the greater Fargo-Moorhead area. Word of mouth, referrals, and repeat customers are their main means of doing business. These have been very effective — Nick's first-time customers typically return for their next automotive purchase, and they've now sold 15 vehicles to one area family alone! It's the kind of business model that can only work when you deal honestly, which is Nick's biggest strength. What you see and hear are truly what you get there.
If you're in the market for a pre-owned car, truck, or SUV, then you need look no further than Nick's Auto Sales at 725 32nd Ave S in Moorhead. They're just a block and a half south of I-94, so stopping to have a look at what they've got in store will take you no longer than getting a cup of coffee. You're certain to like at least one that you see, and should you buy it you may drive it confidently knowing that Nick's has given it their very best. Give Nick's a call at (218) 512-1002 to find out more, or go and visit today!

You have some decent, but not exceptional, beef mince and you don't feel like chili or spaghetti Bolognese. Here's a delicious way to take it up-town.
•	1 Tbs. good quality oil, plus extra for brushing.
•	1 large onion, finely chopped.
•	¾in piece fresh ginger, very finely chopped or ground to a paste.
•	2 garlic cloves, very finely chopped or ground to a paste.
•	1-2 green bird's-eye chilies, seeds removed, very finely chopped.
•	1 healthy lb. lean beef mince.
•	2 tsp. ground cumin.
•	3 tsp. ground coriander.
•	½ tsp. ground turmeric (optional).
•	1-2 tsp. mild chilli powder, to taste.
•	2 Tbs. chopped fresh coriander, to taste.
•	Buns, sliced tomato, slice of cheese, lattice, etc. for burgers; if making burgers.
1.	Heat the oil in a frying pan and cook the onions on a medium heat, stirring frequently, until softened and slightly colored. The small amount of oil used in this recipe means the onions might stick to the pan at some point; add a splash of water if necessary.
2.	Add the ginger, garlic and green chilli and continue to fry until cooked and any liquid has evaporated. Transfer the mixture to a plate, spread out and allow to cool.
3.	Put the minced beef in a mixing bowl, add the onion mixture and all of the remaining ingredients, and mix well. Shape into four to six burgers.
4.	Heat a griddle pan, hot plate, frying pan or barbecue to hot. Brush the burgers with a little oil and cook: four minutes each side for a medium finish for six burgers, a little longer if you have made four larger burgers.
5.	Assemble the burgers and serve with chips, etc.

An Open Letter To Texas
Chez Pazienza
Dear Texas,
So word has it you're talking about seceding from the United States and, I guess, forming your own country. I wish I could react with shock, but the truth is we've heard this kind of thing before; we hear rumbles of it every time something happens politically on a national scale that rattles your ironically fragile sense of independence and sends you into a Texas-sized panic. It usually amounts to nothing more than petulant whining disguised as a lot of cock-grabbing bravado and bluster, but this time you've managed to quickly amass enough signatures calling for secession in the wake of last week's Obama victory -- more than 80,000 -- that the White House has no choice but to respond to your "request." Let me save you the suspense and the delusion that this little tantrum is going to be the least bit effective: the answer's gonna be "no."
And that's a shame. Because I think I speak for a good portion of the United States when I say that frankly I'd be thrilled to see you go. I'm a full-on supporter of the Independent Republic of Texastan. There's honestly nothing I'd enjoy more than watching you split off from the rest of us and take a shot at creating your own Jesus-blowing conservative-libertarian utopia. I mean, with your legendary ingenuity, creativity, and all-around smarts, your experiment wouldn't possibly become a post-apocalyptic Road Warrior hellscape in a matter of weeks, right?
A couple of years back, your governor, pretend shit-kicker and Sears mannequin haircut-cultivator Rick Perry, talked about the possibility of your seceding from the U.S. and going your own way. You didn't hear anyone complain about it then, did you? This time, it's worth noting, Perry isn't on board with your plans. He's already made it clear that he has no intention of supporting secession -- a move I consider more of a threat than reassurance -- and to everyone with a brain, that is everyone not you guys, it should be obvious why.
The reality is that for all your bombast and thoroughly misplaced pride in your state and its supposed self-reliance, Texas happily gobbled up a total of $259,196,392,892 in federal money just this past year, making it possibly the most hypocritical of the eight or so red states that bitch about the government, shriek about makers-vs.-takers, but sit comfortably atop the list of areas drawing the most federal funds while not paying for it with comparable taxes. In other words -- you couldn't survive without the United States government to help prop up your fat asses. And still, this is how you repay all that largess, since you sure as hell aren't ever going to be able to repay it with cash: by acting like a dumb teenager who threatens to run away from the home provided by his parents every time something happens that makes him all angry.
Look, Texas, you have the highest percentage of uninsured children in the nation. You're dead last when it comes to the number of people with a high school diploma. You have the dirtiest air in the country. You rank 49th in the number of low-income residents covered by Medicaid. You're 46th in the number of people who regularly visit the dentist. You're 47th in the nation in literacy, 49th in verbal SAT scores and 46th in math scores. In 2011 you took more money in federal aid than any other state to teach abstinence education and yet you still have the third-highest teen pregnancy rate in America. I know you're dumb but are you starting to see the picture?
Apparently not, because here you are, with people like Lubbock judge and conspiratorial yokel stereotype Tom Head warning about how the U.N. was going to invade Texas if Obama won and promising that he'd stand in defiance of the invasion along with the local sheriff. U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon's spokesman actually responded to that lunacy by basically calling it just that. Then there's Hardin County Republican Party Treasurer Peter Morrison, who just a couple of days ago said that you "must contest every single inch of ground and delay the baby-murdering, tax-raising socialists at every opportunity." He then joined in the calls for your secession and wondered aloud why Texas couldn't just sign some kind of free-trade agreement that would be beneficial to both you and the rest of the now-Texasless United States.
Sure thing. We can send you food, water, medical supplies for the kids who are dying in droves and every form of technology still being produced within the United States borders and by our partners around the globe. You can make sure we never run out of big hats, roadside kitsch and rusted F-150 truck parts.
One more thing to keep in mind, Texas: secession is treason. And while I know you pride yourselves on the number of guns you own, unless you've got access to tactical nukes, a Navy and a shitload of Hellfire-equipped drones, I don't think you're going to come out on the winning end of a confrontation with the U.S. military. Also, being that my 4-year-old daughter lives in Dallas these days, I'd rather not have to figure out a way to get her out from behind enemy lines via some kind of underground railroad for people with more than seven working brain cells while 5,000-pound JDAMs are turning places like Beaumont into glass. I'd do it if I had to -- hell, I'd even be willing to get her mom out if it came to that -- but it's not exactly an ideal situation.
So look, while I know it makes you feel better to swing your limp dick around and make histrionic threats nobody gives a crap about every time there's a political victory for progress in this country -- and while I really would love to see the overall IQ of the United States increase sharply overnight -- you're basically just making a lot of noise for nothing. You're never gonna get what you want. Unfortunately, you're stuck with the United States. And even more unfortunately, we're stuck with you.
Now Shut the Fuck Up and Sit Down,

Inferring Congestion
Сети в картинках: принципы без необходимости знания алгебры

What makes WiFi faster at home than at a coffee shop? How does Google order its search results from the trillions of webpages on the Internet? Why does Verizon charge $15 for every GB of data we use? Is it really true that we are connected in six social steps or less? These are just a few of the many intriguing questions we can ask about the social and technical networks that form integral parts of our daily lives. This course is about exploring the answers, using a language that anyone can understand. We will focus on fundamental principles like "sharing is hard", "crowds are wise", and "network of networks" that have guided the design and sustainability of today's networks, and summarize the theories behind everything from the social connections we make on platforms like Facebook to the technology upon which these websites run. Unlike other networking courses, the mathematics included here are no more complicated than adding and multiplying numbers. While mathematical details are necessary to fully specify the algorithms and systems we investigate, they are not required to understand the main ideas. We use illustrations, analogies, and anecdotes about networks as pedagogical tools in lieu of detailed equations. All the features of this course are available for free. It does not offer a certificate upon completion.
Controlling Congestion in the Internet
The Internet has many important tasks to manage, like routing packets (discussed in the last module) and controlling congestion. This workload is modularized into different functional layers, each responsible for performing a different set of functions, as we will see in this lesson. We will also look at the principles of congestion control, managed at the transport layer.

And now the end hosts need to be able to infer the congestion, so we're back to the question again. How do we tell if the network is congested right? It's we can use the acknowledgements to see whether or not packets have come back and whether there is no congestion, but how do we tell if there is congestion? Well, it's because the end host doesn't know what the network looks like. The network is kind of a black box, the internet here. it receives two acknowledgements then it knows it can send out two more packets, but what's the correct way to define what congestion really means? It has no idea about the paths, no idea about the other end hosts, no idea about other traffic, really no idea about anything going on in the network. So we need to infer the congestion from the feedback, right, so what we do is we make two common sense assumptions. And TCP tends to make these two common sense assumptions depending upon which specific limitation of congestion control. we're discussing, now, depending on what operating system we have but there's two common sense assumptions we can make. using an acknowledgement packets in terms of when they arrive and if they arrive at all, that can help us determine whether or not there's congestion. So let's look at those two assumptions now. The first assumption is that, if a sender waits a long time, and has not received an acknowledgement, then the packet was probably lost. So, that probably makes sense, right? If, if you're going to wait a really long time, right? Then you don't see the packet come back. Then you can assume something probably happened to it, right? If you're, The round trip time is the way that we measure that. Which is the time to the receiver and back. So we need to, have an idea of, well, how long should we wait before we can determine if the packet was lost without an acknowledgement? because it could just be that the packet was just late coming back, and wasn't actually lost. So, when did we determine if a loss occoured? Well, we look at the round trip time, which is the time to the receiver and back, right? And we have some idea of what that round probably is, then we have a time out counter which we say, okay well some amount larger than a normal RTT, right? So maybe it's three times the round trip time, so if the round trip time is 50 milliseconds, which by the way that's the. standard round trip time across the United States. It's very approximate but it's about 50 milliseconds sending across the US. so maybe, if it's maybe three times, then 150 milliseconds. So if you're sending across the US and you. Or waiting more than 150 milliseconds you maybe assume that the packet is going to be lost. So, to actually define what the normal RTT is, we could use that for instance to be the minimum recent RTT that we've observed. Right, so if we've observed however many packets in the last couple of minutes, hours, whatever it may be. We can take the minimum of those and say, okay, well this is the normal RTT, and I'm going to say, I don't want it to go this much above. It could also be the average or the median RTT. You know, it really all depends on the specific implementation, but it's just, it's just some benchmark that we can compare against. So, the idea, really here, consider this example. we have a sender who sends two packets of data, one and two. He sends them at ten milliseconds on the clock. Right, so at 25 milliseconds, for whatever reason, packet two gets dropped, maybe there was too much congestion whatever happened packet two gets dropped, right. So now at 35 milliseconds the receiver gets packet one and sends the acknowledgement back. The acknowledgement gets back to the sender at 60 milliseconds, so the total round trip time is 60 minus ten. Ten, which is 50 milliseconds. So, again, maybe once, maybe three times that occurs. So, once we hit 150 milliseconds, because the sender's not going to know if this was dropped. It just has to infer by the fact it hasn't received an acknowledgement. But once 150 milliseconds, and the sender still has not received the acknowledgement for packet one, sorry, for packet two, Because packet two was dropped, right? Packet to was dropped then the sender may assume packet two was lost and dropped. Now, the second assumption we make doesn't have to do with timing. It has to do with sequencing of future packets. So, the assumption is that if a sender receives acknowledgement from any future packets the the packet was probably lost. So, the way we do this is by assigning each packet a sequence number, and then we say if a certain number of future packets have come without this packet having arrived. so packets X, then if X plus 1, X plus 2, X plus 3, X plus 4 arrive without X having arrived yet then we assume that it was lost, and that number could be three, it depends on the implementation really. And so after a certain number of future packets, we would assume the packet was lost. It can't be one, because the next packet could arrive, you know, the packets do arrive out of order, depending upon which roots they traverse, right, so there could be multipath routing going on. We didn't look at multipath routing, last but that could definitely happen. So you have to wait definitely more than one, before you do that. the idea is that suppose we've just sent packets nine, ten, 11, and 12. And you sequence them accordingly. The sequencing is just labelling them with a number where they are in the TCP session. So, then, if packet nine was dropped, right, then we get an acknowledgement for ten 11 and 12 and if this number was three. Then, we'd say, okay. Well, now that, three packets have arrived. We're going to assume that, packet nine was lost. Because it's very unlikely that, packet nine will arrive after ten, 11 and 12 if all arrived already. So those are our two assumptions, the TCP. The two real common sense, sense assumptions. The first one has to do with the time relative to a minimum. RTT time and the second assumption has to do with sequencing of the packets.

There are reasons children will identify with Katie too. Most children find waiting to be difficult. So does Katie. She loves pancakes and she wants to make them by herself now! The last thing she wants to do is wait until she's older. And Katie loves building things but her creations don't always work out as she has planned.
My granddaughter and I are anxiously awaiting the publication of your book. Having been beta readers for it, I can agree with everything you say. My GD loved the repetitive rhyme. I love the focus on the girl maker and the fun way of solving the problem. I'm hoping it will be published in time for reading on Pancake Day next year. Do you think that's a possibility? I wish you every success.


Clicker training for dogs, the easiest way to improve dog obedience.
You may want to teach an old dog new tricks or start a full clicker training program with your puppy.
Clicker training is suitable for dogs and puppies of all ages and all levels of current obedience.
In this article I will discuss dog clickers, how to use a dog clicker, when to use dog clicker training products, offer you clicker training tips, what exercises are suitable for clicker training, clicker training for puppies, how to buy a dog clicker and what other dog clicker training resources are available.
I will provide links to dog clicker training videos, books, websites and try to provide you with enough information on problem solving to avoid your puppy clicker training disasters.
This article is a complete dog and puppy clicker training resource with everything you need to start a clicker training program with your dog.
Clicker training is a complete stand alone dog training program used for training dogs and puppies or can be incorporated in to your current training sessions.
The clicker makes a unique sound when pressed, this sound is then used to reinforce positive behaviour from your dog.
This method of dog training has been developed over many years and has been honed to be one of the quickest ways to train a dog or a puppy, it involves a basic understanding of dog psychology and teaches you how to incorporate this into your dog training sessions.
Each time your dog gives you the behaviour commanded IE: SIT, he hears the sound of the clicker and receives a treat or praise, very quickly his brain will associate the click sound with a pending reward.
He will become conditioned to give you the desired behaviour on command to get his reward.
Clicker training works by identifying the exact behaviour you want from your dog, communicating this to your dog by way of the clicker sound at the exact moment he performs the the desired behaviour.
If you have read my other dog training articles you may remember "dogs do not speak your language", they respond too and understand sounds much easier. For this reason a clicker sound is an ideal way of training your dog as it is playing to your dogs strengths.
During your non clicker training sessions, you will speak to your dog, give him a treat or stroke when he does what you have asked. But how does he know exactly what he did to get the reward? He doesn't; he may have actually ran around a while before he came back, he may have not sat next to you rather sat 3 feet away but still got a treat. There is always a risk of your dog believing that the undesired part of the training ( running around on the way back ) got him the reward so he will repeat it.
Clicker training eradicates this problem as the owner clicks precisely on the specific behaviour; this sends the message to your dog, do that and get a reward thus avoiding confusion.
The first thing you will need for clicker training is a good clicker, sounds obvious but there are some very poor quality clickers out there. By poor quality I am not talking about the build but the sound, in order to be successful at clicker training your dog needs to be able to actually hear the clicker.
I have listed here a selection of decent quality clickers, these dog clickers can be bought here online via Amazon.
Easy Training Fast Training Make your training effective and fun!
For classes or for sound sensitive animals it's the must have tool. Dogs that have been trained with a classic box clicker completely understand the lighter sound of the new i-Click.
Strap it to a wheelchair and click with your palm or chin.
Timing is Everything. With the new-i-Click you won't miss a clickable moment because you fumbled trying to use your clicker. The i-Click has been designed to let you click no matter how you happen to grab hold of it. Upside down click, sideways click, right side up click. You can click with your thumb, with your palm, even your foot. And no more worries about clicking with your gloves on, if you suffer from arthritis or if you have long nails or large hands.
Everyone Can Click. The new i-Click is disabled friendly. Drop the clicker on the floor (it always lands in a clickable position) and you can click with your foot. Strap it to a wheel chair and click with your palm or chin.
Click with Thumb, Palm, Hand and Even with Foot, Or with Gloves On.
first person "the master" then uses the recall command "come", as puppy reaches you "click" give a treat and make a fuss. What you have just done is taught him you are more important and interesting than anyone else.
These are some basic exercises that your puppy or older dog should pick up very easily. Do not overdo the clicker training as you can move onto more difficult exercises later.

South Sudan is a country in Africa. Its official name is the Republic of South Sudan. It used to be a part of Sudan.
The landlocked country is bordered by Ethiopia to the east; Kenya to the southeast; Uganda to the south; the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the southwest; the Central African Republic to the west; and the Republic of Sudan to the north. South Sudan includes the vast swamp region of the Sudd formed by the White Nile, locally called the Bahr al Jabal.
What is now South Sudan was once part of the British Empire. It became part of the Republic of Sudan when independence was achieved in 1956. After the First Sudanese Civil War, the Southern Sudan Autonomous Region was formed in 1972 and lasted until 1983. A second Sudanese civil war soon developed and ended with the Comprehensive Peace Agreement of 2005. Later that year, the Autonomous Government of Southern Sudan was formed. South Sudan became an independent state on 9 July 2011 at midnight local time, after a referendum held in January 2011. In the referendum, nearly 99% of voters wanted to separate from the rest of Sudan.
The United Nations Security Council met on 13 July 2011 to formally discuss membership for the Republic of South Sudan. The next day, 14 July 2011, South Sudan became a United Nations member state. South Sudan has also applied to join the Commonwealth of Nations, the East African Community, the Intergovernmental Authority on Development, the International Monetary Fund, and the World Bank. The country was declared eligible to apply for membership in the Arab League as well.
At the 2012 Summer Olympics, one athlete from South Sudan competed under the flag of the International Olympic Committee.
Its capital is Juba. Between eight and twelve million people live there. Over 200 languages are spoken, but the official language is English. Arabic is also spoken by many people.
The main religion is Christianity, practised by nearly 78% of the population. Another 20% practise African traditional religions, and just 3% are Muslim.
Much of South Sudan's economy is based on oil, but they also have a large lumber industry mainly consisting of teak. It is a very poor and under-developed country. There is very little infrastructure, and the civil wars have caused a lot of damage.

Last month, Studio Ghibli co-founder Isao Takahata, director of theatrical anime including Grave of the Fireflies and The Tale of the Princess Kaguya, passed away at the age of 82, succumbing to lung cancer. On Tuesday, friends and colleagues gathered at the Ghibli Museum to say their farewells, with Hayao Miyazaki delivering a eulogy, pausing repeatedly as emotion overwhelmed him and tears filled his eyes.
It's customary to display a photograph of the deceased at memorial services in Japan, and Takahata's was surrounded by some 2,000 flowers, an idea Miyazaki himself proposed so that Takahata would be surrounded by the scent of a warm flower field. However, during his speech, Miyazaki told the audience of a time he subjected Takahata to a very different smell.
Miyazaki and Takahata share the same personal physician, and nine years ago, the doctor called Miyazaki on the phone. "If you're Isao Takahata's friend, make him quit smoking," the doctor gravely commanded. Miyazaki and producer Toshio Suzuki (the remaining member of Studio Ghibli's group of three founding fathers) then sat Takahata down and implored their friend and coworker to give up the habit, with Miyazaki straightforwardly saying "Please stop smoking," and Suzuki asking him to quit so that he could continue creating animation.
▼ Audio of Miyazaki's speech, with photos from the service.
More flattering was Miyazaki's recollection of the first time he and Takahata spoke with one another, when Takahata (six years Miyazaki's senior) struck up a conversation as the pair were waiting for a bus at twilight, with puddles on the road following a just-ended rain shower. "He seemed like a kind, wise young man," Miyazaki remembers, an impression keeping with the soft, relaxed tone of many of Takahata's films.
Miyazaki also spoke of a time when he'd grown dissatisfied with the work he was doing at Toei Doga. He and Takahata were both officers in the company's employee union, and during an overnight session in the organization's office, Miyazaki opened up about his desire to go beyond what he'd done in animation so far, to tell deeper, more meaningful stories, and the two discussed how to achieve those dreams. Given how rarely Miyazaki has kind words for anyone else in the anime industry, the fact that he'd engage with Takahata in such a conversation shows the deep admiration and trust he had in his colleague.
At multiple points of his speech, Miyazaki mentioned that he'd always assumed Takahata would live until the age of 95, and no doubt his grief is all the greater for losing his friend 13 years earlier than he'd expected. Judging by Miyazaki's words, though, Takahata's presence and influence will never fade from Miyazaki's heart.

Q: Ethereum Contract call methods return insufficient gas message? The call methods on a contract deployed to mainnet are erroring with insufficient gas messages.
{
  code: -32000,
  message: 'err: insufficient funds for gas * price + value: address <address> have 27795556348606292 want 420361420000000000 (supplied gas 894386)'
}

On Kovan network, the call methods are working fine. But on Mainnet they are returning the above.
Since call methods require no gas, I'm not sure what the issue is.
$ truffle(mainnet)> c = await EthText.deployed()
$ truffle(mainnet)> c.dapp_name()

dapp_name is a call method
contract MyContract {
  string public dapp_name = "Eth Text";

What would cause this error?

Der Nagel-Punkt, benannt nach dem deutschen Mathematiker Christian Heinrich von Nagel (1803–1882), der 1835/36 die Existenz dieses Punktes aufzeigte, gehört zu den besonderen Punkten eines Dreiecks. Für ein gegebenes Dreieck ABC betrachtet man die Punkte D, E und F, in denen die Ankreise die Seiten des Dreiecks berühren. Verbindet man diese Berührpunkte mit den gegenüber liegenden Ecken des Dreiecks (also mit A, B bzw. C), so schneiden sich diese Verbindungsstrecken in einem Punkt N. Dieser wird als Nagel-Punkt des Dreiecks bezeichnet.

Eigenschaften
 Betrachtet man außer dem Nagel-Punkt N des Dreiecks ABC auch den Inkreismittelpunkt I und den Schwerpunkt S, dann liegen die Punkte N, S und I auf einer Geraden, der Nagel-Geraden, und es gilt , wobei der Schwerpunkt S zwischen den Punkten N und I liegt. In dieser Eigenschaft weist die Nagel-Gerade eine Analogie zur eulerschen Geraden auf.
 Der Spieker-Punkt ist der Mittelpunkt der Verbindungsstrecke von Nagel-Punkt und Inkreismittelpunkt und liegt somit ebenfalls auf der Nagel-Geraden.
 Der Nagelpunkt und der Gergonne-Punkt sind isotomisch konjugiert.

Complaining is commonplace. Life's annoyances and problems see to that. Complaining gets things done. The Israelites complained about Moses' wilderness menu. God provided quails and bread from heaven. Yet complaining, especially constant complaining, is quietly destructive of relationships, of community, of public life.
Jesus had to endure the complaints of the Scribes and Pharisees about the message he preached and his way of life. Sometimes he is very tough with them, calling them hypocrites and whited sepulchres. In today's gospel he is disappointed that their interest in him focuses on his satisfying their human needs (the bread they received at the feeding of the 5000). Why couldn't they see that this sign, this miracle, pointed to God's power, his Father's power working through him?
Gratitude, thanksgiving, not complaints characterise the Christian. If you come to the Eucharist, thanksgiving for God's gifts (for thanksgiving is what Eucharist means) is what we are about in this church. If you search for the meaning of life, for the bread of life, hear Jesus' words: "I am the bread of life". Jesus totally satisfies hunger, quenches thirst. If you come close to Jesus, your life will not be aimless. You will become involved in a spiritual revolution, finding a new self, your best self, caught up in the most certain way to goodness, holiness and truth.

THE DUKE DIDN'T GIVE A DAMN
TREASURING A REBEL
In a world gagged by woke activists where leaders mouth crafted lies instead of telling it the way it really is, the Duke of Edinburg should have been treasured instead of viewed with alarm when occasionally his candour slipped into the questionable.
Like many veteran Canadian journalists I had plenty of opportunities to watch the Royals because of their many visits. Prince Philip had verbal flashes that delighted me although the CBC would have turned them into a crusade of condemnation if its very correct staff had known.
I recall many years ago his love of horses pushing him to a comment that would have had his enemies in the English media drooling. He had been a good polo player and long-time president of the International Equestrian Federation, so naturally I asked about the equestrian events at the Mexico Olympics.
He said he worried about the horses in the high altitude because he was unsure the damn #$@*#* Mexicans cared enough about them. (I heard a similar sentiment later from a prominent Canadian in a box at the Royal Winter Fair who had loaned a horse to the Mexican jumping team which then pretended it had died when it hadn't.)
I never wrote about the Prince savaging Latin colleagues because off-the-record is a rule you never break if you don't want to be frozen into a useless observer.
Once the Duke was visiting the Toronto Press Club, which was a big deal considering his antipathy for the media, and the executive lined up to greet him. He asked what I did and I said I was the membership secretary. "Terrible job," he said. Not really, I replied, why would he say that?
"Don't people want to get their friends in and pressure you? I wanted to join this club in London. They had a ceremony where members voted on whether you could join by each taking a ball and then sticking their hands through a cloth sleeve into a big wooden box. If they didn't want you, they stuck the ball into a ledge up on one side. How would you like to be married to the Queen of England and have two bastards stick a ball there and black ball you."
Prince Philip had a pleasant aloof air in the inspection tours and walk-abouts, an attitude of confident approachability. I recall staying with a Toronto group with some clout in a guest house in Beijing that the Chinese reserved for important visitors. I was poking around and found a staff member who spoke English and boasted about how the Queen and Duke had stayed there. She raved about how great they had been, especially the Prince.
Remember the nice story that Allan Dickie wrote for CP about how the Royal couple had made everyone so relaxed at a luncheon in Yellowknife that as the meal ended, a big motherly waitress tapped the Duke on the shoulder and said "keep your fork, Duke, there's pie.)
Of course the graceful Queen is the mistress of comfort. I once blundered as a kid reporter into a little group of welcoming dignitaries beside the royal yacht Britannia. She spotted my press credentials and smoothly passed by with a smile.
At the start of Royal tours, there is often a session where media brass are invited to chat with the Royals a day before their staffs are set loose upon them. So there we are in the Ontario Room of the Royal York Hotel, the various editors and publishers herded into little groups. The Queen and Duke split up and circulated. I surveyed my group and worried it would be awkward because everyone would be too awed to chat with the Queen. So when she joined us, I started talking about how long a day it had been for her because she had flown just that day. She said she always kept her watch on London time as one way to combat jet lag.
She was there for the Queen's Plate and since she is famous for her knowledge of racing and blood lines. we talked about her presentation there. "Did she bet," I asked? She said she gave wagers to a lady-in-waiting. I said there was a long shot in the Plate that some had written was an interesting gamble. She nodded, smiled again, and went on to the next group.
The horse ran last ... dead last.
