Creation of a knowledge base about processes and practices in the complex webs of innovation chains in AM.
The knowledge base will be tailored to the requirements of different stakeholders (government, industry, academia and civil participants – 'quadruple helix') and user groups (communities of practice, CoP) including all entities involved in AM.
Development of a dynamic model of webs of innovation value chains in AM based on open innovation considerations and stage-gate approaches.
A dynamic model will be developed in order to simulate and visualize the behaviour of these complex webs under different conditions and to enable a general understanding of potential RRI openings. Additive manufacturing (AM) in the automotive and medical industry will serve as pilot cases to refine and validate the model.
Facilitation and dissemination of strategic guidelines for implementation of RRI principles for institutional change.
Lessons learned will provide the basis for strategic guidelines and best practices for implementing RRI principles in the individual value chain positions. The strategic guidelines will advise policy makers and funding organisations on how to stimulate and govern the growth of dynamic webs of innovation value chains by implementing RRI principles.

The Mokelumne Aqueduct is a  water conveyance system in central California, United States. The aqueduct is supplied by the Mokelumne River and provides water to 35 municipalities in the East Bay in the San Francisco Bay Area. The aqueduct and the associated dams, pipelines, treatment plants and hydroelectric system are owned and operated by the East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD) and provide over 90 percent of the water used by the agency.

The aqueduct is the sole water supply for about 1.4 million people in the East Bay. Under present water rights agreements, EBMUD can withdraw up to 325 million gallons (1,230,000 m3) per day, or  per year, from the Mokelumne River. In addition, up to 98 million gallons (371,000 m3) per day or  per year can be supplied via a branch from the Sacramento River. However, this supply is expected only to be used in the driest 35% of years.

History
In the early 20th century, due to a lack of reliable local water, Bay Area cities began to look to rivers in the Sierra Nevada, about  east, as a potential new source. Although the city of San Francisco was already extending an aqueduct to the Tuolumne River, East Bay communities wanted to build an independent water system, fearing future "hegemony" of the water system by San Francisco. In 1923, the EBMUD was organized and in 1924 acquired water rights to the Mokelumne River, a major tributary in the San Joaquin River system. On November 4, 1924, residents approved $39 million in bonds to finance the project.

Construction began in 1926 and by 1929, the  high, concrete arch Pardee Dam and the First Mokelumne Aqueduct, consisting of a single pipeline, were completed. The first deliveries to the Bay Area were made on June 23, 1929. At the time of completion, Pardee Dam was the tallest in the world (this record was surpassed one year later by Diablo Dam in Washington State). In 1949, a second pipeline was built and in 1963 the third pipeline was constructed, bringing the aqueduct to its present capacity. In 1964, the second major dam of the project, Camanche Dam, was completed below Pardee.

In 1970, EBMUD signed a contract with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) for supplemental water from the Folsom South Canal, which draws water from the American River near Sacramento. The USBR supply was delayed for nearly 40 years in part due to minimum flow requirements in the American River to protect salmon and steelhead populations. The Folsom South Canal Connection (FSCC), which links the two waterways, was finally completed in 2009.

Specifications
The aqueduct begins at Pardee Reservoir, which is formed by Pardee Dam on the Mokelumne River. The reservoir has a capacity of , or about a 10-month supply. Camanche Reservoir, located directly below Pardee, has a storage capacity of  – twice the size of Pardee – but is not directly linked to the aqueduct. However, Camanche allows for greater diversions into the aqueduct by storing winter floodwaters spilled from Pardee. During the dry season, water is released from Camanche in order to satisfy local water-rights holders, eliminating the need to draw water from Pardee.

The aqueduct travels southwest for  through the western foothills of the Sierra Nevada and then west across the Central Valley along the Calaveras River before crossing the Sacramento–San Joaquin River Delta. Near Lodi, the aqueduct is joined by an extension of the Folsom South Canal, which supplements the Mokelumne River supply. Once the water reaches the Berkeley Hills above the East Bay, it is channeled into a complex distribution system consisting of six terminal reservoirs (Briones, Chabot, Lafayette, San Pablo and Upper San Leandro) with a combined storage capacity of . The water is treated at the San Pablo, Sobrante and Upper San Leandro Treatment Plants before passing through the Claremont Tunnel, which emerges on the western side of the range between Berkeley and Oakland. Water not immediately put into the municipal system is stored in the reservoirs for use in times of low delivery or drought.

Most of the aqueduct consists of three separate buried steel pipelines, although there are also some aboveground segments. The pipelines, also known as Aqueducts No. 1, 2 and 3, have diameters of ,  and , respectively. Aside from the main facilities, the distribution system includes  of pipes, 125 pump plants, and 168 local reservoirs/storage tanks.

Issues
The aqueduct is located in a seismically active zone and is considered vulnerable to earthquakes, especially the  stretch where it crosses the Sacramento–San Joaquin Delta, where an earthquake or storm-induced levee failure could damage the pipelines or any of three major river crossings here. A large earthquake (100 year return period or more) could put the aqueduct out of service from 18 months to three years, depending on the extent of the damage. Levee failures in 1980 and 2004 (not caused by earthquakes) on Jones Tract have threatened the aqueduct. An aqueduct joint at the crossing of the Middle River also failed in 1992, nearly causing a washout of the levee. The aqueduct was shut down in time before an actual levee breach could occur.

Because Pardee Reservoir is relatively small among California reservoirs, EBMUD has pursued to raise Pardee Dam to a height of . This would expand the reservoir surface by . The enlarged reservoir would cover , an increase of 62 percent, and the capacity would be about , a roughly 50 percent increase. It would allow for more water to be provided during the dry season that would otherwise have been spilled over the dam during the winter. This project would have flooded between  of the Mokelumne River. Due to environmental concerns, the project was shelved in 2011.

Николай (Никос) Панайотович Мастеропуло (1948—2003) — советский, российский художник, эмальер.

Биография
Родился в семье понтийских греков по отцовской линии. Предки его отца ещё в начале ΧΙΧ века, спасаясь от гонений на христиан в османской Турции, перебрались из исторического Понта на Юг России. В 1968 году Мастеропуло закончил Московскую среднюю художественную школу при Академии художеств СССР, после которой поступил в Московское высшее художественно-промышленное училище (МВХПУ) (сейчас Московская государственный художественно-промышленная академия им. Г. С. Строганова) на специальность «художественная керамика».

С отличием закончив МВХПУ в 1973 году, он начал свой самостоятельный творческий путь, увлекшись абстрактными формами в декоративно-прикладном искусстве. В 1977 году, будучи уже членом Союза художников СССР, приступил к работе на московском Комбинате монументально-декоративного искусства. Самые известные его работы того времени — оформление наружных вестибюлей станции метро «Ботанический сад». Позже он оформлял интерьеры Московского инженерно-физического института (МИФИ) на тему «Наш город — Москва» и Центра инженерно-технического и энергетического обеспечения (ЦИТЭО) в Химках. За создание произведений в области монументального искусства Николай Мастеропуло был удостоен премии Художественного Фонда СССР. С начала 1980-х годов Мастеропуло принимал участие в престижных коллективных выставках, проводившихся в Советском Союзе и за рубежом (Равенне, Берлине, Риме).

Переломной для мировоззрения художника стала середина 1970-х годов. Его знакомство с религиозной литературой, общение с кругами ортодоксально настроенной молодёжи постепенно приводят его на путь церковный. В возрасте 27 лет молодой художник решает креститься. В эти годы он всё больше творческих усилий стал посвящать эмальерному искусству, которое стало его любимой техникой на всю оставшуюся жизнь. Мастеропуло освоил все техники эмалей: перегородчатые, эмали по скани, эмали по керамике, живописные эмали по меди. Особую роль художник придавал поискам нужной тональности цвета. Знаменательна в этом плане его работа по заказу ЮНЕСКО «Человек-зверь». В эмалях Мастеропуло особая роль принадлежит технике кракелюра. Её применение усиливает эмоциональное звучание работ, особенно портретов (серия «Страсти человеческие», «Портреты композиторов»). Эмальерные работы Николая Мастеропуло получили международное признание. В 1992 году на Международном симпозиуме в венгерском Кечкемете он был награждён медалью за высокое мастерство и уникальный размер живописных эмалей на меди.

Художник работал также c живописью на холсте, в основном с маслом, изредка с темперой. Характерной чертой его творчества стало выполнение работ в различной технике на аналогичные сюжеты. К таким сериям относятся «Мифология Древней Греции» (живопись, мозаика), «Понтийские поговорки» (живопись, эмаль), «Понтийские танцы» (живопись, эмаль, мозаика), работы на библейские сюжеты (живопись, мозаика, эмаль).

Особое место в творческом наследии Николая Мастеропуло занимают «Понтийские портреты», выполненные в технике эмали на меди, написанные маслом на холсте, пастелью на картоне, исполненные в мозаике. Многие из них стали каноническими изображениями понтийских греков и сегодня используются самыми разными понтийскими организациями в своих мероприятиях, оформлении тех или иных изданий и на официальных бланках.

Интерес к культуре исторической родины у Мастеропуло присутствовал всю его жизнь. В 1987 году художник впервые посещает Грецию. Он объездил Афины, Дельфы, Эгину, Метеоры, Крит, Олимпию, Микены, создав серию картин в масле с видами и архитектурой Греции. Связь с Грецией ещё более усилила интерес к церковному искусству. Вслед за первой поездкой в Элладу последовали серии работ на библейские темы в масле, мозаике и эмали. Знакомство художника с афонским монашеством привело к более частым посещениям Греции и длительным пребываниям на Святом Афоне.

В 1997 г. Мастеропуло принимает предложение игумена монастыря Святого Дионисия (Дионисиат), архимандрита Петра, создать большое мозаичное панно на тему «Святые устроители монастыря» перед центральным входом в обитель. Эта работа, выполненная в содружестве с Г. Илиади, стала подлинным украшением Дионисиата. Плодотворное и гармоничное сотрудничество с афонскими монахами позволило сконцентрироваться на работе над такими забытыми техниками, как византийская перегородчатая эмаль и миниатюрная мозаика. Именно Николай Мастеропуло восстановил эти техники для современного искусства.

В монастыре Дионисиат Мастеропуло создал в технике византийской перегородчатой эмали уникальную работу «Откровение Иоанна Богослова "Апокалипсис". Сегодня она хранится в сокровищнице монастыря. Последние годы жизни Мастеропуло творил только для Дионисиата. Посмертно его включили в списки устроителей монастыря.

Всю свою жизнь художник не забывал о своих понтийских корнях. Ещё ждёт своего продолжения начатое Мастеропуло исследование и описание всех главных христианских церквей Трапезунды (ныне — Трабзон, Турция). Его находящаяся в семейном архиве статья "Монументально-декоративное искусство Трапезундской империи" ждёт своей публикации, а также продолжателя начатых исследований.

Внезапная смерть художника прервала выполнение его многих творческих планов. Похоронен Н. Мастеропуло в Москве на Химкинском кладбище.

Его работы хранятся в музеях России (Городском музее Ярославля, в Союзе художников России, в Министерстве культуры России), в Центре Европейской культуры в Дельфах (Греция), в Национальной коллекции эмалей Венгрии, в частных коллекциях в России, Греции, США, Германии, Швейцарии, Польши, Японии, на Кипре.

B2B sales, you had better learn to ask good questions!
You will build credibility with your prospect because good questions demonstrate that you are knowledgeable about their industry.
You can gain key insights into the needs of your prospect that will help you shape your ultimate offer to how your services will benefit them the most.
You can identify where your contact or contacts fit in the decision-making process. Are they the final say, can the influence the decision in your favor, or do they not factor into the final decision at all? This knowledge can make for a much simpler and more professional sales process.
When I say early in the process I am referring to any point prior to you formally presenting or demonstrating your product or service. This could be meeting a prospect at a networking event, talking with them by phone prior to a formal presentation, or meeting with them in person. While it will not hurt to ask good questions at any point in the sales process you will get the full benefits if you can do so early.
So, how do you ask good questions?
The first step to being able to ask good questions is to know everything there is to know about your particular offering and how it can benefit your target industry. Take the time to research your offering and do not be afraid to be creative when coming up with ways your target industry can benefit.
This will benefit you beyond just being able to ask good questions. Read industry publications, subscribe to the blogs of industry experts and keep up with them by means of social networking, attend industry events, and sponsor industry organizations. In essence find out as much as you possibly can about your target industry. This knowledge can help you with the previous section "Know your Product/Service offering front to back" as well.
As with most tasks it is important to determine what the end results should be before constructing the means to that end. By determining what information is essential to your sales process you can effectively determine the questions you want to ask.
Practice makes perfect so at least in the beginning be sure to write down your questions and practice your delivery. It does not hurt to do role-playing with a colleague to get a feel for how a real conversation might go. It cannot feel like an interview to your prospect rather it must seem as though you are asking questions within the flow of the conversation.
All processes take time to perfect so you may not get this down the first time, that's ok. The only real mistake is not learning from your mistakes. If you can record your conversation that is idea but many situation will not allow you to do so. A good alternative is to have a colleague join you on a sales call and the two of you can discuss how to improve together.
Over time you will be able to refine not only the questions you ask but the manner in which you ask them. The more quality information you can get early in the sales process the better you can position your offering. This will lead to the ultimate goal of closing more business.

NY Gurubai's Visit to Japan, Winter 2016
and Its Synchronization with Pranavadipa Vol. 17:
Part 2: BLESSING
Saturday afternoon, the gurubhai from New York took their first Asana & Meditation class in Kyoto, led by Shantimayi. They were a bit nervous at first, but eventually they blended in quite well. After resting for a little while back at Shanti Kutira, we then set out to attend the first satsangha at the Ashrama!!! It was finally time to reunite with Shri Mahayogi at his residence in Kyoto!!!!!!! You can imagine how excited we were… How long we had waited for this day to come!!!!!!!
At the satsangha, Aniruddha expressed his heartfelt need to be free. He could feel that he was always holding himself back, mostly out of being concerned about how others would perceive him. So he always felt imprisoned by what was going on in his own head, knowing that this was the opposite of the freedom he yearned for.
Shri Mahayogi was just listening and nodding his head, but he didn't say anything about it.
When asked by Nandi why he feels that others are judging him, Aniruddha answered that his personality is such that he prefers to be reserved, to be the man in the background. He has never sought attention for himself. He was always afraid of being judged.
Still, Shri Mahayogi said nothing.
Who could have guessed that the answer was yet to come—no, actually what would happen went far beyond any kind of answer. Who knew that something that was beyond an answer, even beyond what any of us could imagine, was bound to come…and so soon!
After the satsangha, we had late dinner with Satya, Kripal, Taka and Yohei at Shanti Kutira. With foresight, Taka had prepared the meal before heading to the satsangha. Ryan couldn't attend the first night's meeting because he was so exhausted after not being able to sleep well the night they arrived, but this night, Ryan was wide-awake and looking completely alive. Nandi, on the other hand, who was probably over excited at having seen Shri Mahayogi and attending the satsangha at the Ashrama, couldn't stay up any longer, so he went to sleep right after dinner. As if Ryan was making up for the precious time with gurubhai that he had missed the night before, he asked a number of questions about the recurring theme present in all of the discussions that took place over the course of their journey—discrimination.
At some point, Yohei, knowing that Satya had been practicing discrimination, suggested that she share her practice of discrimination.
She shared that her tendency is such that if something rises up within her that she is bothered by or concerned about, she cannot think about anything other than that, and this makes her naturally enter into the condition of discriminating on a given issue. In the beginning, it took a long time to process, but she now feels that she has grasped how to get to the core of discrimination, or how to go about discrimination, so her process has been shortened. Discrimination begins by thinking about the matter, (this is the gross level in which she is aware that she is thinking about it, and this is the condition in which she and the issue are entangled). Then, as she continues, gradually, the condition arises in which it seems as if the issue is being looked at from above. By that time, the state of concentration deepens and continues in the depths of the mind. That condition ends too. And then, the condition in which it appears as if the mind no longer contains that issue at all arises. At that time, she is not aware of concentrating, but the concentration still continues. At some point she experiences the feeling of being very clear and light, as if the clouds have been cleared away and the sun has come out into the blue sky. Then all of a sudden at that time, the intuition comes, that "the matter in its entirety will be resolved very soon." And later it vanishes by sheer chance.
Ryan asked her how she knows if the matter is completely resolved or not. She answered that when the issue is completely discriminated, then she clearly knows that the matter is completely separate from her, so that she can never be bothered by it again in any way whatsoever. Since she knows from her experiences the difference between the condition of intellectually understanding it, (in which her mind forcibly tells her "that is ignorance", "that is the Truth"), and the issue being resolved by actually discriminating, she carries the process through until the very end of discrimination, which results in the renunciation of that issue.
And she also explained that the practice of discrimination she is working through is nothing like a big subject such as "death," but rather it is focused on the agitations within her mind that occur in daily life. For example, it could be something like, "Why does a feeling of "not liking" this person arise?" Or, if she is bothered or disturbed by the words of others, "what is the real intention behind these words?" Or if her negative habits arise, why does she still allow them to continue?
She said that hearing the questions that Ryan asked Yohei and Taka gave her the impression that they might be thinking that the practice of discrimination is something very far removed from the matters of daily life. But she feels that discrimination begins by first taking a subject that is closely related to one's own actions, which is a very concrete thing. And by continuing to practice discrimination in this way, one is able to understand the teachings of Truth more and more, and to sense and absorb them on a deeper level. Through engaging in this process, as its consequence discrimination on ignorance—that is the very root cause of these thoughts and habits—happens. And then that ignorance is renounced. If that act of discriminating the root cause, or ignorance, was attempted at the very beginning, the process would be as elusive as grabbing a cloud.
(At another time, Satya, when thinking back on that night, mentioned that if they were to speak more openly about their issues, then she might be able to try to go through the actual process together with them. Unfortunately, Ryan's example was not that clear, or perhaps he had not yet opened himself up, so she gave up on speaking about it further—discrimination begins from the point of clarifying what the issue is, so it cannot begin if the issue is not clear.)
When asked to share about her practice of meditation, Satya spoke about trying to know and understand Nag Mahasyaya, whom she had chosen for the subject of meditation for the Siddha Marga* program. (We will share her experience of concentrating on Nag Mahasyaya in another blog. It was very inspiring!)
* Siddha Marga is the three-year program that was initiated for the concrete growth of each disciple. It was a program made only for serious practitioners who have attended MYM's classes regularly for some years and were willing to go further. The program was run between April 2013 and March 2016. It was led by Sananda and Sanatana.
Taka also spoke about his experience in Siddha Marga program. He chose Swami Vivekananda as his ideal. He had not really meditated on any Enlightened Being except for Shri Mahayogi, so at the beginning, it was very difficult to focus on Swami Vivekananda. He was, of course, interested in India, where Yoga and religion are well rooted and have developed, but sometime later he really wanted to see and experience how, and in what kinds of places Swami Vivekananda actually lived and practiced. So he went to India. He tried to feel the life and spirit of Swami Vivekananda through communicating with the swamis and devotees in Belur Math and branches of the Ramakrishna Mission, to see and touch and trace the footsteps of Swami Vivekananda's life and work. When he returned to Japan, his daily life was very much influenced by meditating on Swami Vivekananda. If there was ever a moment in which he caught the mind in an idle, unfocused state—he would immediately begin to repeat the name of Swami Vivekananda. So, gradually he was able to focus intently on Swami Vivekananda, and he has begun to feel the bliss, or the Reality that he feels when he focuses single-mindedly on Shri Mahayogi. The quality of his concentration was not steady at first, but through persisting and continuing to practice, there was something that he began to understand: the origin of that bliss, or Reality, that he feels from Swami Vivekananda and Shri Mahayogi exists within him. And because of the fact that this experience of Reality is not consistent, some days it is strong and some days it is weak, his immediate goal is then to make it possible to feel this bliss and Reality at all times, endlessly, and to know its essence. He understood the essential need to deepen his learning and restructure his life completely in order to accomplish that task. And this learning and meditation have continued up to now.
Upon hearing this, Aniruddha said that he could clearly see that his practice has been an easy one up until this moment. He could feel how seriously Taka meditated on Swami Vivekananda, and he was touched by it.
In the morning, they took an Asana and Meditation class led by Dharmini. After that, Nandi went back to Shanti Kutira alone by bicycle to meet Gurudas there. They are both masseurs, so they shared their practices and learned from each other. (It was quite an adventure for Nandi to get back there all by himself… and, well… he lost his way… But it was better than another guruhbai from New York some years ago who got lost riding back by bicycle and ended up circling around the immediate neighborhood for several hours!)
The rest of us were in Kripalu's car. He took us sight-seeing to the Fushimi Shrine, the iconic Shinto shrine with the vermillion toriis cascading down the hillside. Throughout our visit, Kripalu graciously took care of us in addition to Taka and Yohei. He quit his job right before our visit due to his former company's relocation to the next prefecture. In order to continue to serve by participating in the works of the MYM, he chose to quit his job rather than relocating with the company. Because of his newly found flexibility, he unconditionally offered us a lot of his time and energy. Very often, he would come to pick up Anandamali, who was serving as the translator and organizer of the trip, at 2 am, or even 5am, to take her where she was staying, at Yoga Vihara, the residence of Yogadanda and Satya.
As it turns out, Sunday proved not to be the best day to visit the famous shrine. There were so many people there that we decided to take a side path and find a more secluded area.
After resting a little at Shanti Kutira, we visited Seva Kutira, the house of service, to have dinner with Saci, Madhri and Mirabai, who reside there. These three female disciples have been working solely for the Mission for many years, and they are the engine behind many of its activities.
Aniruddha was again the first one to ask them a question. In an attempt to get help for himself, he said that he supposed that at the beginning, their focus was not only on Yoga, so what was it that made it possible for them to focus solely on Yoga? They answered very openly and sincerely.
Saci said that although when she first met Shri Mahayogi she didn't understand what Yoga really was at all, she had a feeling that she shouldn't continue the way she had been living, and that she should not leave her ego as it was, so she thought about trying Yoga.
She started to attend the satsangha at the Ashrama every week, but she felt that Sanskrit, or a lot of unfamiliar words were being spoken, so honestly she could not understand what Shri Mahayogi was saying for quite a long time. Still, she was somehow convinced that this must be the real, authentic thing here, in Shri Mahayogi, even though she had never really felt that her life up until that point had been false…
She continued to practice asana every single day, she took everything that was taught to her as being the positive things that she should practice, such as not drinking alcohol or not eating meat. And one year later, there was an incident that made her recognize a great transformation of her mind, and it really amazed her to know that the mind, which had been so resistant to change no matter how hard she tried, could change if she practiced Yoga continuously and persistently over the course of one year. That made her think that Yoga is her life's work and the one thing that she would continue.
Madhri said that at some point, she started to feel that she really wanted to find out what the aim or purpose of life is. While she continued her search, and when she felt that she would not be able to go further, she met Shri Mahayogi. And the firm words spoken by Shri Mahayogi, "The Truth that is unchangeable, exists in everyone," penetrated her, and she started to feel convinced. Then Shri Mahayogi told her, "Seek seriously only that which is truly precious, and by doing that, the number of things that are equally precious that remain, will be clarified." Upon hearing this, she began the practice.
Mirabai said that she had been seeking the meaning of life, seeking something that she could live for.
Then, Anirruddha suddenly asked her, "Could you teach me about kirtan?"
Mirabai: "Why do you want to learn kirtan?"
Anirruddha: "Because Mr. Shimada told me that if I want to learn more about bhakti, I should ask Mirabai about kirtan. What is kirtan?"
Mirabai sensed that something about the way that Aniruddha asked, had nothing to do with the spirit of kirtan—kirtan was not something you could exchange, like a tool to heighten one's bhakti, so she expressed her supposition,
"You do not really understand what kirtan is."
Aniruddha was really surprised to hear these words.
Nandi then asked, "Aniruddha why do you wan to know?"
Aniruddha had actually intended to ask if this could be a tool to help him, but instead, he expressed his core feelings by saying—
"I have always wanted to be free, to experience freedom from my desires."
In a strong surge of emotion, Aniruddha's head fell toward his chest and he placed his hand on his forehead, as he struggled to contain his emotions. No matter how much he struggled to gain control, it could not be controlled. Moments of silence ensued… and through a forced whisper, he said,
"Anandamali… I came here knowing that perhaps this is my first and last visit—I would never have a chance to come back again…. Even though I am not in such condition both mentally and spiritually, I was able to come… I really want to deal with the part of me that is indecisive… "
Then the tears broke.
After we left Seva Kutira, Aniruddha said that he was very embarrassed because he had never cried in front of people before. He felt ashamed.
Later on, after reflecting on his experience however, he realized that Shri Mahayogi had not said anything at the satsangha, but actually, he had received much more than an answer… THE EXPERIENCE OF OPENING—it was Shri Mahayogi's blessing that did that for him. It was Sri Mahayogi's blessing that freed him for the very first time. Aniruddha said,
"Shri Mahayogi let me truly see how much He means to me in my life. "

Check Out the Forthcoming Web Series Black Actress

Fans of Degrassi: The Next Generation might recognize Andrea Lewis from her time on the show playing Hazel. (I never got into Degrassi, but I'm told by my coworker Madeleine that Hazel was lucky enough to have dated our good friend Drake but their relationship didn't work out because she "didn't support his art enough.") But her new project is a web series called Black Actress that'll be premiering on Issa Rae's YouTube channel next month.
Drake Says Yes to Dating RiRi, No to Dating Nicki, Yes to Dating You
Drake, the Ross Gellar of rap, started from the bottom/now he's on Ellen talking about all the …
Lewis wrote the series and also stars, though she's not in the preview clip seen above. That clip features actresses Ashley Blaine Featherson and Nikivia Dionne, both of whom show up to audition for the role of Beatrice in 12 Years a Slave, a character described as a "very dark-skinned, has obviously had long days in the fields." Insert a short rendition of "We Shall Overcome" here.
In a conversation after that scene, Featherson and Dionne discuss their own experiences auditioning for roles. Featherson says she doesn't mind being labeled a black actress, saying, "I am a black actress and I'm totally happy and comfortable saying that...I think there's a uniqueness in that. Yeah, it sets me apart. I'm black and I'm an actor." Dionne feels differently: "I don't want us to be an actress 'of color.' I want us to be a standard." On her website, Lewis writes:
This is a sketch for all of my aspiring actresses out there. Only in the black community do we make a big deal over complexion but the truth is Hollywood can't tell the difference and they don't care! So the first tip is don't worry about your complexion, just do a good audition and hope that the part doesn't go to someone who isn't black! Good luck!
Black Actress premieres November 5.

In 1978 two Acton town wells were found to be contaminated with organic compounds. (Contamination was later found to have come from a nearby industrial site, now designated as the WR Grace Superfund Site.) These public wells, Assabet I and Assabet II, had been in operation since the early 1970's, and in 1978 supplied 40% of the town's drinking water. Contaminants included : Ethylbenzene, 1,1-Dichloroethylene (also known as DCE or VDC), Benzene, 1,1,1-Trichloroethane (TCA), Trichloroethylene (TCE), Methylene Chloride, Toluene, and Chlorobenzene.
The Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) prepared preliminary "Public Health Assessment—Initial Release (PHA-IR)" and "— Public Comment Release (PHA-PCR)" documents in 1992.
These reports summarized contaminant levels found in the Acton public drinking water wells, Assabet I and Assabet II, as well as in soils, sludge, and groundwater at the WR Grace Superfund Site. The ATSDR documents also included cancer incidence rates for bladder cancer, brain cancer, kidney cancer, leukemia, liver cancer, lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, and stomach cancer for the years 1982-1988 in census tracts 3631.01 in Acton, and 3612 in Concord, MA. When compared to statewide rates significantly elevated rates were only found for brain cancer in women in Concord. Colorectal cancer incidence rates were not included in the census tract data presented in the ATSDR reports.
The ATSDR reports also discussed an early 1990's health study conducted by the John Snow Institute, (JSI), Center for Environmental Health Studies for the town of Acton, to assess the public health impact from potential exposure to contaminated drinking water.
"(1) In looking at the rates in Acton it is assumed all residents were exposed. Approximately 40% of the community received water from these wells, however, specific consumers of water from Assabet Wells One and Two cannot be identified.
(2) Rates were not compared to individual doses. This cannot be done because, in addition to not knowing who the actual consumers were, the duration of exposure and the concentration an individual ingested from tap water are unknown. The maximum time period of exposure is the time period the wells were opened from 1970 to 1978, an assumption can be made that the concentration detected at the time of closure is representative of the concentration in the wells between 1970 and 1978.

Q: Sandcastle Help File Builder Project not showing up in Visual Studio 2017 Enterprise I installed SHFBInstaller_v2017.5.15.0.zip from https://github.com/EWSoftware/SHFB/releases. After going through the guided installation I launched Visual Studio, opened an already existing C# console application, and when I went to add a new project to the solution, there was not Sandcastle Help File Builder project listed. Here are the options I can see in visual studio:

I restarted my computer to see if that would fix anything but it didn't. I'm not sure why I am experiencing this problem. I've used sandcastle before and didn't experience this. Any help is greatly appreciated.

A: The project is in the Documentation category. The Visual C# category is for C# coded projects, which Sandcastle documentation is not.

On Sunday's broadcast of CBS's "60 Minutes," Anderson Cooper moderated a segment about the difficulties of monitoring potential domestic ISIS sympathizers by law enforcement.
At the end of the segment, Dan Maynard, an attorney for Abdul Malik Abdul Kareem, an Arizona man convicted of helping the two men that carried out an attack on a 2015 "Draw Muhammed" art contest in Garland, TX, Elton Simpson and Nadir Soofi, revealed an undercover FBI agent had been tracking Simpson and Soofi right up to moments before they carried out the attack.
According to Cooper's report, the undercover agent fled the scene and was even stopped and handcuffed by Garland, TX police.
ANDERSON COOPER: [H]is attorney Dan Maynard continued to investigate, and uncovered new evidence the FBI was much closer to the Garland attack than anyone realized. After the trial, you discovered that the government knew a lot more about the Garland attack than they had let on?
DAN MAYNARD: That's right. Yeah. After the trial we found out that they had had an undercover agent who had been texting with Simpson, less than three weeks before the attack, to him "Tear up Texas," which to me was an encouragement to Simpson.
MAYNARD: I was shocked. I mean I was shocked that the government hadn't turned this over. I wanted to know when did he get there, why was he there?
COOPER: And this past November, Maynard was given another batch of documents by the government, revealing the biggest surprise of all. The undercover FBI agent was in a car directly behind Elton Simpson and Nadir Soofi when they started shooting. This cell-phone photo of school security guard Bruce Joiner and police officer Greg Stevens was taken by the undercover agent seconds before the attack.
The idea that he's taking photographs of the two people who happen to be attacked moments before they're attacked.
COOPER: I mean, talk about being in the right or the wrong place at the right or the wrong time.
MAYNARD: The idea that he's right there 30 seconds before the attack happens is just incredible to me.
COOPER: What would you want to ask the undercover agent?
MAYNARD: I would love to ask the undercover agent– Are these the only communications that you had with Simpson? Did you have more communications with Simpson? How is it that you ended up coming to Garland, Texas? Why are you even there?
MAYNARD: I can't tell you whether the FBI knew the attack was gonna occur. I don't like to think that they let it occur. But it is shocking to me that an undercover agent sees fellas jumping out of a car and he drives on. I find that shocking.
MAYNARD: He didn't try to stop 'em. Or he didn't do something. I mean, he's an agent, for gosh sakes.
COOPER: If this attack had gone a different way, and lots of people had been killed, would the fact that an undercover FBI agent was on the scene have become essentially a scandal?
SEAMUS HUGHES: It woulda been a bigger story. I think you would have seen congressional investigations and things like that. Lucky for the FBI and for the participants in the event you know, here in Texas, you know, everyone's a good shot there.
The FBI's actions around this foiled attack offer a rare glimpse into the complexities faced by those fighting homegrown extremism. Today, the battle often begins online where identifying terrorists can be the difference between a massacre, and the one that never occurred in Garland, Texas.

Belgium has become the latest country to report disappointing proceeds from the sale of airwaves for next generation mobile phones.
Belgian telecoms regulator IBPT has revealed that the auction of three licences raised 450.2m euros (�286m), one third of original expectations, with one concession left unsold.
The announcement comes towards the end of a worldwide round of spectrum sales that has reaped diminishing returns.
Telecoms firms, laden with debt from earlier purchases, have proved increasingly unwilling to bid up for further licences.
While frontrunners such as Britain and Germany sold licences for the equivalent of more than $550 (�373) per user, Switzerland in December gained the equivalent of $17 (�11.50).
Denmark is developing a new-style licence auction in an effort to boost takings, reports said, while Hong Kong has devised a royalty-based system.
IBPT awarded the Belgian licences to the country's three incumbent operators for about 150m euros (�95.2m) each, after six other groups pulled out of the auction ahead of an 8 February deadline.
The winning bidders included Proximus, owned by Belgium's national operator Belgacom and UK giant Vodafone, which claimed to have gained the premier licence, with France Telecom's Mobistar and Dutch-based KPN-Orange buying the other concessions.
The IBPT and Belgium's Telecommunications Ministry, which had hoped to raise 60bn Belgian francs (�944m) from the sale, have yet to decide what to do with the unsold licence.
"We are considering a variety of scenarios," IBPT managing director Eric Van Heesvelde said.
Denmark, which is to sell four licences for third generation phones in the autumn, has pinned hopes of high auction takings on a system of sealed bids.
Regulators believe the introduction of greater secrecy will encourage interest from smaller telecoms firms.
"In a sealed bid auction, it is possible for an aggressive new entrant to outbid a conservative incumbent," the country's IT and Research Ministry and National Telecom Agency said in a draft document.
The organisations believe this strategy will also reduce the potential for collusion between bidders, which is widely seen as a factor in the declining auction returns.
A minimum bid price of 2bn Danish crowns (�170m) is sufficiently low to give smaller operators a chance, Research and IT Minister Birte Weiss said.
Singapore will next week issue guidelines for its own spectrum auction, with four licences on offer.
But analysts said that, with a minimum bid price of 150m Singapore dollars (�58.2m), it is unlikely to attract considerable international interest.
"European operators have overpaid in Europe and they can't afford to pay any more here, and a lot are pulling out of Asia," said Kelvin Tay, telecoms analyst at ABN Amro.
Michael Millar, telecoms analyst at SG Securities, said: "All you can say is that it will be a fairly subdued affair."
It is "highly likely" that the licences will be won by Singapore's current three mobile phone operators, he said.
"And whoever wins, could probably get licences quite close to the minimum bid price."
Third-generation services are intended to provide users with greater capabilities including video and much faster internet access from their mobile phones.


One of the unfortunate realities of life is that the best time to really think about something is often when you no longer have access to it, the oddly formed hole it leaves behind an easier way to understand its shape.
So I've been thinking a lot about friendship recently.
I wasn't so naïve as to imagine that I would arrive in Los Angeles, step out of my car and magically be surrounded by a glorious cabal of soul-mates. (Well, ok, wasn't so naïve as to seriously believe that would happen.) But I think I've been a little bit surprised at how intimidated I am by the whole process of making new friends, of weaving together the fabrics of our existence in profoundly life-giving ways.
Now, this isn't to say I don't have friends here. I do. And I am sure, over time, they will become good friends, and best friends, and lifelong friends. But it takes a while to be truly known, and in the interim I've become weary. I find I forget who I am. Not in someamnesiac-crisis kind of way, but in the quiet moments of fury when I screw up an important task or fail, again, to really devote time to nurturing my relationship with God or simply lay on my couch and mentally admire how well I wear labels such as failure or hypocrite or whatever.
Those struggles aren't novel by any means – in fact they've been faithful companions throughout most of my "adult" life – but as I've most recently encountered them again on my high-wire of existence it has distinctly felt as if there were no net beneath me. It's just me, the monsters, and the empty, beckoning air.
It's been in those moments that I have started to understand what the presence of intimate friendship had meant to me, and I'm increasingly convinced that one of the greatest blessings of friendship is that it reminds me who I am. And I need to be reminded.
After having only lived in Los Angeles for two weeks, there was a night when all I wanted was a hug. And yet, as time wore on, I realized that it wasn't the hug that I wanted so much as the reminder that I was enmeshed in community, that I was known and still worthy of love; just any old hug wouldn't be able to communicate that.
When I lived with my two closest friends, every interaction was based upon a deep understanding of each other, an enduring web of shared experiences. They had seen me in almost every conceivable light, so when they talked to me, joked with me, played with me, prayed with me, they did so while knowing me better than anyone.
It's one thing to be known generally, but it's another thing to have yourself made known in every hug, every word of advice, every conversation about global politics or God or vegetarian Dementors, every disagreement, every affirmation of love and support. And so, in a way, I continued to be reminded of who I was because of how they simply were with me. As someone who is prone to fits of doubt or low self-esteem, it is these small reminders that make all the difference.
I don't think I really appreciated how much these friends had become home for me.
It takes a while for someone's words/eyes/arms to become filled with those kinds of memories, and I honestly don't know how long it will be until my friendships here in this utterly bizarre land of Los Angeles take root.
But I must admit, re-experiencing what it means to be a "stranger" has allowed me to witness embarrassingly profound displays of hospitality from innumerable people. It has made me hopeful. Not just hopeful for myself – that one day I'll find that fabled soul-mate cabal – but hopeful for churches and the life-giving communities they are supposed to be.
I'll let you guys know when I find out.
Matt Jones is a student at Fuller Seminary who blogs over at A Joyful Stammering and can be followed on Twitter: @AJoyfulStammer.
*And then I think about how badly I wish I could control the elements with my mind because honestly three consecutive thoughts without a wild flight of imagination is beyond me.
Yeah. Your text reminded me of a conversation I had with a friend about being only child. I am the only child of my parents, and my friend is not. I told him that, among many others, one of the problems of being only child is that you have less people to remember you of who you are and who you were. I mean, of course I have long time friends. And I have my parents, who know me since I was born. But, ceteris paribus, the more brothers/sisters you have, more people you have that know you (probably) since you were born. And these people have the very important task of remember you who you are.
The now-in-vogue idea of "ubuntu" – "I am because we are" – communicates that idea pretty well, I think. We are less ourselves without others.
I hear you. I'm not an only child (the youngest of two), but I didn't ever feel very close with my family and now I am relearning how to be a part of that unit in a life-giving, memory-filled way.
Great personal reflection, Matt. I like the transparency of it. And I can relate, having moved to the Pittsburgh area this past summer and finding it–even/especially as a pastor–difficult to make meaningful connections. You are younger, at a seminary, and have a friendly disposition, so you will do just fine:) P.S. I hope to visit the area there in 2014, so if you see me wandering the Fuller campus, strike up a conversation with me.
Will do! I'll just start asking people if they're Tim starting in January.
Pittsburgh, huh? Don't give in to the philistine masses and become a Steelers fan! Please! One of the aforementioned best friends is a Steelers fan and it's the worst! Stay strong.
beautifully related, making a simple "like" feel … lame.

Church Worldwide: With 'Woodlawn,' Christian Films Enter New Playing Field
Never underestimate the power of pigskin and prayer.
When the government mandated that Woodlawn High School desegregate in 1973, riots and cross burnings ignited Birmingham, Ala. But after a chaplain visited the high school football team, future Miami Dolphins running back Tony Nathan and more than 40 of his black and white teammates chose to dedicate their lives to God: praying together at practice, meeting for Bible study after school, and ultimately helping to unite the town.
As Birmingham natives, faith-based filmmakers Jon and Andrew Erwin were inspired to bring the true story to the screen in "Woodlawn," starring Jon Voight, Sean Astin, and Caleb Castille.
"It was an anomaly event where an entire football team at once made a decision to love God and to love each other, in a school and a city that didn't know what that meant," said Jon Erwin. "Faith was an absolutely essential part of this story. It wasn't politicians that led the Civil Rights Movement, it was pastors."
A sports movie with Christian themes "sounds great on paper," said Phil Contrino, lead analyst at BoxOffice.com. although he doesn't foresee it reaching the heights of recent faith-based dramas "War Room" ($64.1 million total), "Heaven Is for Real" ($91.4 million) or "Son of God" ($59.7 million), all deemed surprise hits by the media when they opened in 2014 and 2015.
"That narrative should definitely be retired—we should never be surprised," Contrino said. "There's a huge amount of people in this country that identify themselves as Christian. It's not a niche, it's not a specialized market, it's a huge segment of the population."
While Hollywood has never been able to match the heights of Mel Gibson's controversial "The Passion of the Christ" in 2004 ($370.3 million), "the potential is always there, for sure," Contrino added.
Faith-based movies are more likely to cross over to a broader audience if they have established brands behind them, said DeVon Franklin, who appears in "Woodlawn" and is producing the upcoming "Miracles from Heaven," starring Jennifer Garner, out next year. "War Room," which topped the box office last month, is from director Alex Kendrick, whose "Fireproof" (2008) and "Courageous" (2011) each earned more than $30 million on budgets less than $2 million. Similarly, Christian super-producers Mark Burnett and Roma Downey produced "Son of God" and "Woodlawn" and endorsed "Heaven Is for Real."
With these movies, "the faith is what leads the conversation," Franklin said. "But because it's coming from a trusted brand, your opportunity to do more at the box office is greater, because audiences anticipate these next films."
The Erwin brothers have yet to establish themselves as box-office draws: Their past efforts, last year's comedy "Moms' Night Out" and 2011 drama "October Baby," pulled in $10.4 million and $5.4 million, respectively. But they have faith in the future of Christian cinema and believe there is enough interest from audiences to continue making them on a bigger scale.
"In five to seven years, we'll see Christian blockbusters," Jon Erwin predicts. "We'll see faith-based films that are as big and competing with 'Jurassic World.' We have the numbers, we have the resources, we're marching up that mountain together. (There's) a couple dozen of us that are forging ahead.
"Sean Astin said to me the other day, 'Jon, I see you and Andy as pioneers or frontiersmen.' I said, 'That's a great compliment. Only trouble is, most frontiersmen die on the frontier.' "

Dr. Weinstein teaches doctoral courses for the Department of Moral and Social Philosophy at the University of Helsinki and has held visiting fellowships or guest professorships at The Center for Scottish Studies at Princeton Theological Seminary, Die Institut für die Wissenschaften vom Menschen, The State University of Oulu. He received his Ph.D. and M.A. from Boston University.
Weinstein's interest in lay-audience focused philosophy is a long and committed one beginning with a weekly column in his undergraduate college newspaper title "My Philosophy." With it, he attempted to bring his own philosophical learning and exploration to his peers;the column was published weekly for two years. Since then, he was continued his non-specialists oriented work. He is the author of three books and several edited collections, much of which is for general audiences. He regularly sits on panels that bring philosophy's tools to contemporary issues, and has presented to general audiences in a range of venues from museums to cafes in Europe. Overall, he has authored two books, three edited collections and journal symposia, and over two dozen articles and reviews. He has contributed work for lay audiences to newspapers, magazines, and public radio.
Dr. Weinstein's more specialized research focuses on the intersection of the history of philosophy and contemporary political theory. His main interest is in theories of diversity and justice, with special attention to education and otherness, human rationality, and the roles of emotion in moral judgment. He seeks to develop a political theory that incorporates a general theory of human understanding in the midst of difference. He is currently writing a multi-volume political theory that pays special attention to the role of education in a pluralist society.
Much of his work has focused on Adam Smith, the father of modern economic theory. Weinstein seeks to show that Smith's political economy is a more focused instance of Smith's general moral theory. As an outgrowth of this research, Weinstein uses Smith's eighteenth century model of the interaction between knowledge and social life to build a unified vision of the role of government, moral growth of citizens, individual rights and liberties, and cross-group communication within a pluralistic society. He insists that the cultivation of any one of these spheres necessitates attention to them all, and presents his system as an alternative to the Kantian justification of human rights and moral virtues that prevails in political philosophy today.

Only mayo I will use/consume. Since no longer in stores so much easier to buy direct. No sure what I will do if ever stop producing this product. Mrs. Filberts is the best.
Jim 9-3-18 I am a 68 year old man & been using Mrs. Filbert's mayonnaise all my life.
Glad to see I can still buy direct from the company.
Please continue making Mrs. Filbert's mayonnaise.


Anatomy of the Eye: The eye consists of many delicate parts to process what it sees. The retina is the lining at the back of the eye that converts light into images and transmits them through the optic nerve to the brain.
Retinoblastoma is a malignant tumor that develops in the retina, which is the part of the eye responsible for detecting information about light and color and transmitting it to the brain through the optic nerve. Retinoblastoma usually occurs in very young children and can affect one or both eyes. Although it is a rare tumor, affecting about 350 children a year in the United States, retinoblastoma is the most common eye cancer in children. It occurs equally in boys and girls. Retinoblastoma may consist of one tumor, or several.
Retinoblastoma: A tumor that form on the retina can not only threaten vision, but also be life-threatening as it grows. New treatments have the potential to not only save lives, but also avoid removal of the eye.
When it is detected early and has not spread, retinoblastoma is very curable in the United States today, with about a 95 percent success rate. For years the standard lifesaving treatment was enucleation, or the removal of the eye. Today new treatment methods, including the intra-arterial chemotherapy for retinoblastoma pioneered by Dr. Y. Pierre Gobin, director of interventional neuroradiology at the Weill Cornell Brain and Spine Center, and Dr. David Abramson, chief of the ophthalmic oncology service at Memorial Sloan-Kettering, can not only save eyes but also allow children to maintain vision.
In about half of all cases the tumor is caused by a genetic abnormality that affects cell division in the retina. It is not clear what causes the chromosomal abnormality. In the other half of patients with retinoblastoma there is no known cause.

How to Know Guppy Fish Are Healthy
By Robert Boumis
Hemera Technologies/PhotoObjects.net/Getty Images
The guppy runs a close second to the goldfish in the category of recognizable aquarium fish. This little fish has a lot to recommend it, both for people setting up their first tank and seasoned hobbyists. Guppies have bright colors, adapt well to a variety of water conditions and get along well with other fish. However, it does take some attention to detail when picking out a healthy guppy to avoid introducing disease into your tank.
Watch how your guppy behaves in the pet shop. Make sure the guppy is actively swimming around. A guppy hanging out at the bottom of a tank could be ill. Also, look for guppies that swim to the top of the tank and "beg" for food. This doesn't mean they're underfed; guppies will beg even with full stomachs. This behavior means they're fed often enough that they associate humans with food.
Pay special attention to the guppies' fins. Guppies can spread out their fin rays, making their fins fan out. You want guppies with flared-out fins, not fins clamped against their bodies. Also look for signs of infection like white spots, dots or fuzzy patches. Make sure there are no rips, holes or tears in the fins. Avoid fish that have a ragged edge to their fins, as this is a sign of fin rot.
At the same time, look closely at the guppy's head. The eyes should be clear and not have a cloudy look. Additionally, make sure the eyes aren't protruding. Bulged-out eyes can be a sign of a condition called "popeye" caused by infections behind the eyeball. Also watch the gills. Avoid fish that are breathing rapidly, flapping their gills more than once a second. Lastly, take a close look at the mouth to check for ulcers.
You also need to look at the guppy's body for signs of illness. Avoid purchasing guppies that have unusually curved or deformed spines. Look at the belly. It should be rounded but not swollen, except in pregnant female guppies. Do not purchase fish with sunken bellies or ones that have a "pinched" look where the body meets the head. This can be a sign of a chronically undernourished or ill fish. Just like the fins, make sure the body doesn't have any white spots, patches or fuzz, which can be bacteria and protozoan parasites.

Calaveras Woodcut Prints Now Available on Dead On Paper!
The Calaveras project has brought Day of the Dead artwork, inspired by Posada, to life in the form of decks of playing cards. Now that same artwork is available for display in the form of woodcut prints. I will personally be hand-pulling each print. Each print will be signed, numbered, and part of a limited edition.
I am so excited to be able to offer these modern day renditions of traditional day of the dead prints. Printmaking has always been a special interest of mine and the process is near and dear to my heart. I hope you love the prints because I couldn't be happier to offer these originals for a reasonable price to all who enjoy the artistic style and love Day of the Dead artwork as much as I do.
These prints pay homage to the legacy of printmaker and illustrator, José Guadalupe Posada. Posada was a pictorial journalist and satirist known primarily for his Calaveras, or skulls, which Posada employed to make a political or religious statement. His most famous illustration, Calavera de la Catrina ("Skull of the Female Dandy"), was meant as satire aimed at the upper class under Mexican President Porfirio Diaz.
These prints represent major players in the Mexican Revolution. For instance, the Spades are based on the aristocracy. The King of Spades is a rendering of Porfirio Diaz, President of Mexico turned dictator. Diaz was responsible for land rights being taken away from farmers and peasants and given to the haciendas, homes to the aristocrats of Mexico. The Revolution was mainly a war of land rights, spurred by the inequality of wealth in the country. Under Diaz, 5% of the population owned 95% of the land and workers on the haciendas were often treated no better than slaves—beaten for small infractions and sometimes killed in their pursuit to pay off never-ending debt to their hacienda masters. The Queen of Spades is my artistic salute to Catrina, a female member of the aristocracy. My interpretation is based loosely on Diaz's wife, Carmen Romero Rubio. She was very fashionable, and always dressed like the aristocracy of Europe. The Jack of Spades is a government soldier who fought under Diaz in the Revolution.
The Clubs suit represents the common people-the King of Clubs is a farmer, the Queen a peasant woman, and the Jack, a folk musician in the traditional charro suit of a mariachi player.
The Diamonds suit represents the clergy of the church. The Catholic Church was very active in politics at the time of the Revolution and owned a lot of land. In order to force the Church out of politics, anticlerical policies were introduced and some church land seized on behalf of the state. There's even incedences where clergy were executed—pretty serious stuff.
The King of Hearts is my artistic rendering of Emiliano Zapata, revolutionary and hero of Mexico. Zapata fought for the redistribution of the land from the haciendas and European aristocrats back to the native people of Mexico. A peasant by birth, he organized and led peasants in the South during the Mexican Revolution and forced Diaz into exile with the help of other revolutionary armies led by Pancho Villa and Pascual Orozco in the North. Zapata was killed in 1919, betrayed and ambushed in a hail of bullets from his enemies. Zapata's armies had many key soldaderas, or women soldiers and officers. The Queen of Hearts is a soldadera, representing the female revolutionaries of the time. The Jack of Hearts is a bandito, a man who steals from the rich. Pancho Villa was a bandito before he was a general, stealing cattle from wealthy landowners in Northern Mexico.
The colorful history of the Mexican Revolution and the political satire of Posada's prints inspired me while making my own art and art prints. Posada's calaveras have become iconic in el Dia de Muertos celebrations, which take place on November 1st (little angels) and 2nd each year. I love the idea of celebrating the memories of all who have come before us and made such an impact on our world with their intelligence and bravery, as well as our loved ones.

The trajectory of major improvements to General Aviation aircraft is always the same. The military develops a system that enhances situational awareness, saves the pilot, saves the airplane, or does all three. Many times these systems are classified for years on end.
Then one day they become mature enough and sufficiently common to be adapted to commercial operations and large business jets. They receive wide acceptance and are enhanced by multiple operating environments.
Much later (although with the advent of digital technology and the application of Moore's Law the time frame continues to shrink) the technology makes its way into General Aviation aircraft. The examples abound: autopilots, flat-panel displays, traffic avoidance systems, weather radar, lightning detectors, GPS, head-up displays, and the list goes on and on.
The development of long-range airliners in the late 1960s heralded the development of a system that would allow an airplane to land in conditions that were essentially 0/0. After all, if you had just flown from Tokyo to San Francisco, but the West Coast was experiencing one of its famous all-day fog events, you had a problem. By 1968 a new system made its way into the cockpit, relegating the crew members' function to essentially that of an Observer. Not only would the system control the throttles and land the airplane, it would deploy the reversers and apply the brakes. In some Airline Operations Manuals once one of these "Category III" approaches was initiated the crew was not allowed to touch the controls until after the reversers had been stowed. That system – Autoland – is still awaiting its debut in General Aviation.
Or was until today.
Enter the 2020 model Piper M600 SLS. The first "S" stands for Safety and it is safety in a whole new light. The SLS features the first emergency Autoland system in the industry. The push of a button by a passenger or a woozy pilot sets in motion a sequence of events born of the estimated 3 million flight hours on unmanned aircraft. Specifically, the airplane selects an appropriate airport based on runway length, weather conditions, available approaches, wind direction and speed, and available emergency services. It tunes the transponder to 7700 and the radios to both the emergency frequency and the appropriate Center/Approach/Tower frequencies. It initiates automated broadcasts through both radios every 15 seconds on 121.5 and every 30 seconds on the others, stating that an emergency has occurred and giving automated position and intention reports. It selects the best route to the prime destination while taking convective weather into account and activating the de-ice system. If the weather changes it can change the route while considering the fuel available. And it does all this while talking continuously to the passengers and giving them updates and instructions on how to talk to ATC if they would like.
And how, you might ask, do the passengers lower the flaps and the landing gear on approach, or apply the brakes? Or shut down the engine? They don't. Automation of the flaps, landing gear, and throttle/speed configuration is part of the package – but there is much, much more.
As of today, an M600 SLS does not need a Co-pilot in an emergency that incapacitates the Pilot. It just needs a passenger with the ability to push a button and the confidence to keep their hands off anything except the microphone. Rounding out the SLS moniker is a standard Luxury package loaded with useful features for the connected world. Security completes the package with a standard Five-Year maintenance package, effectively meaning all you do is purchase the consumables…fuel and oil… that run the M600.
Taken in the aggregate, the 2020 M600 SLS is the most advanced Personal and / or entry-level Business aircraft ever manufactured. Buck Rogers would be proud. So would Steve Jobs. To get a first-hand look at this incredible machine contact Skytech. And bring your favorite passengers, with confidence.

Apple has now confirmed the news about Unlocked iPhone 4 GSM Smartphones selling in United States through Apple Retail Stores. Apple has just updated its online retail store with a new unlocked version of the iPhone 4, now customers and buyers can place the order of iPhone 4 in either black or white at a starting price of $649 for 16GB, with the option to upgrade to 32GB for $100 extra.
Currently, Apple is just offering GSM model of the iPhone 4 is available for purchase without a carrier contract, while the the CDMA model is still tied to a Verizon contract. Shipping estimates place the black version as arriving within 1-3 business days, whereas the white version will take slightly longer, at around 3-5 business days. Although the phone comes without a carrier lock, Apple notes that users will need to supply their own activated micro-SIM from their service provider. Micro-SIMs from the iPad 3G will not work.
Apple caters to U.S. users who often travel internationally and who don't want to be locked in an AT&T contract, which means they can swap SIM cards and save money on roaming fees. Furthermore, international buyers will definitely want to get the contract-free version, whose price can be significantly higher in other countries (for example, an unlocked 16 GB iPhone 4 costs €629 ($909) in Germany, much pricier than the unlocked version in the U.S.). With the unlocked iPhone, the US has now joined the numerous other countries able to officially purchase an iPhone with no strings attached.


The hotel must have reliable internet access.
It must not be more than two hours from London by train.
Note: The contraction 'mustn't' is often used in the place of 'must not'.
We have to have access to the conference center all day long.
We've got to find someone to replace Martin at the conference.
'Have to' and 'have got to' are mostly used interchangeably.
Note: In formal speech 'have to' is usually preferred.
When expressing what one needs from someone else (giving an order), 'have to' is used rather than 'have got to'.
You'll have to meet Mr. Johnson at the airport tomorrow.
'Have to' is also preferred when speaking about repeated obligations.
We usually have to meet our clients at the airport, but this week the hotel are taking care of it for us.
· 'Must', and 'have (got) to' are both used to express obligation or the need to do something. They can all be used in the same way, the only difference is that when we say 'I must' implies that the obligation comes from the speaker his/herself, whereas with 'I have (got) to'the obligation is externally imposed.
· 'Must' is always invariable while 'have (got) to' has past and future forms. 'Have to' (usually without 'got') is also the one most used with adverbs of frequency like 'usually', 'always'.
· When using them in the negative forms 'mustn't' and 'don't have to', only 'mustn't' expresses constraints, whereas 'don't have to'expresses the lack of obligation.
