Key Points (tl;dr)
One of the most powerful features of Discord is the ability to set up new community servers that are based on existing templates.
These templates are usually created by the community itself and therefore cover a nearly infinite number of topics and categories.
This allows Discord to cater effectively cater to every single niche there is and new communities can spin up their own Discord server, including full channel structures and roles, within a matter of minutes.
We've created a curated list of some of the very best and visually appealing Discord server templates in the world. The 25+ templates cover a range of 5 different categories:

Here's the answer. Great article by @ChrisHeidorn from @Tokenized_HQ here: https://tokenizedhq.com/discord-server-templates/

Discord server templates allow users to create entirely new servers based on an existing Discord server. Templates help retain the core structure of the server by copying all channels and roles, thus eliminating a significant amount of work that goes into a server's setup.
Infographic explaining what a Discord server template is and what it does.
Creating your very own Discord server is extremely easy to do and will usually take you less than a minute.
However, simply creating the server isn't enough and a lot of work tends to go into the setup of a fully-fledged community.
Some of the things that every decent Discord should have include channels for various different topics as well as roles with varying levels of permission.
Not only is it a ton of work but depending on the type of community you are building, users will expect different types of server layouts.
Don't get me wrong, it's not like they're looking for a specific template Discord users love.
But every scene tends to have similar types of channel setups for Discord communities (e.g. gaming servers, support servers, etc).
Anyway, the good news is that Discord introduced an extremely powerful tool to help bolster the growth of new servers: Discord server templates!
With the click of a button, you can effectively copy the entire channel and role structure of an existing Discord server.
Unfortunately, they do not come with ready-to-use server names yet, but you can solve that by simply using an original server name for Discord from our massive list.
Anyway, no more need to come up with original Discord channel ideas for your new community.
This helps eliminate the majority of the workload and allows you to focus on the stuff that you want to do differently.
In the next section, we'll quickly show you how to use them.
Server templates for Discord are hosted via unique links that trigger the creation of a new Discord server with that template. In other words, you simply visit a specific URL and Discord will then guide you through the setup process.
Step-by-step guide on how to use Discord server templates.
Using an existing Discord template is as easy as clicking a button or visiting a specific URL.
You see, Discord has made so many aspects of its platform extremely easy to use.
Nearly everything, from inviting bots to using Discord introduction templates, is a piece of cake and the brunt of the work is borne by Discord's infrastructure.
So, all you really need to do is pick one of the Discord server templates from our list and click the "Use Template" button to initiate the setup process.
During the setup process, you'll be asked to give your new server a name and potentially upload a server icon as well.
And once you're happy with your choices you can simply click on "Create" and Discord will take care of the rest.
You'll have a fully-fledged Discord server with various channels and roles, and all you need to do is add or remove stuff as you please.
There are various websites that showcase hundreds and thousands of Discord templates created by other people.
Unfortunately, the majority of these database websites are not very pleasing to the eye and make it relatively difficult to find the right template that you need.
That's why we've decided to put together a curated list that meets the criteria of Discord server template aesthetics.
Our list is split into 5 different categories:
5 examples of Discord templates for general community servers.
We're going to start off our list with some fairly generic Discord server templates for communities of all shapes and sizes.
These can be used by people who just want to chill with friends but also by content creators who like to hang out with their followers.
I know there's never really a one-size-fits-all with these types of things, but these Discord server layouts come really close!
Remember, if you want to use any of the templates, simply click on the "Use Template" link right next to its name.

5 examples of templates for gaming and clans Discord servers.
Next up is the gaming category and this is probably what the vast majority of people are looking for.
Discord was originally created for gamers and has only recently grown to become a much bigger and more diverse platform for all sorts of communities.
Some of the server templates Discord has in store for gamers are more generic and cater to multiple different games.
Other templates are specifically tailored to games such as Roblox, Minecraft, or Fortnite.
Here are some of the best Discord server templates for gaming that we could find.
Gaming Server (Use Template)
Gaming Community (Use Template)
Minecraft Server (Use Template)
Roblox Server (Use Template)

5 examples of server templates for dev and tech support Discords.
One of the most popular recent use cases for Discord has been tech support servers.
As users become increasingly used to being able to contact support services directly via chat, small businesses have been scrambling to find efficient ways to do so.
Depending on the demographic of your customer base, using Discord as a support center can be very effective.
If you're planning on creating such a server, we recommend using one of the following up Discord server templates.
Simple Server (Use Template)
Advanced Support Server (Use Template)

Believe it or not, when kids are spending time on their computers, it doesn't always mean that they're playing games.
Discord has become increasingly popular amongst school kids as a place to do group study and help each other out.
Especially during the pandemic, when schools were mostly closed, Discord played a crucial role in enabling kids to keep in touch and discuss their homework.

5 examples of aesthetic Discord server templates.
Our final category of Discord server templates is dedicated to some of the prettiest ones out there.
While most of the popular server templates use emojis to make them visually appealing, some communities go the extra mile and give their server beautiful themes.
Some of these are focused on particular niches (e.g. Anime) while others are just incredibly beautiful.

Is Facebook Committing Age Discrimination in a Brand New Way?
by Kim Beasley | Business | 1 comment
Technology is definitely changing the way we do business, but this isn't always a good thing. Several large businesses were recently caught using Facebook ad targeting to tailor job advertisements to a younger audience. In the corporate world, this is commonly known as age discrimination.
These companies are using Facebook's ad-targeting to limit who can see their advertisements for open positions based on demographic information. The New York Times and the non-profit organization, Propublica, discovered the practice. Their investigation caught multiple large corporations using this strategy. The list includes Verizon, Target, and even Facebook itself.
36 is the New Old for Hiring
The age-cap was set as low as 36 by some companies, leaving out a huge portion of qualified candidates. Propublica and the New York Times claim this violates the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967. Facebook has defended these actions, stating that it is an "accepted industry practice".
While this sounds like a good defense, it's still concerning to think a company can weed out people based on simple demographic information. Only now, this happens on the most basic level of hiring: the notice that help is wanted.
Facebook Ad-Targeting Allows Quiet Age Discrimination
Business is changing at a fast pace. Offices are becoming more modern, and some companies even allow employees to determine their own hours. Companies are streamlining every part of the working process, so it makes sense to streamline the hiring process as well.
However, the use of ad targeting does give large businesses a real opportunity to quietly discriminate. While ageism is in the news today, other companies have been caught using the ad-targeting system to discriminate against other groups in their hiring. What's in question here is not the ability to use ad targeting for job advertisements, it's how far companies might go when using it.
Ageism is Actually Bad for Business
It is easy to see why a company would prefer a young hire. Younger candidates are less experienced, earn less money, and are more likely to have the availability to work longer hours. They are often current on the latest technology and social media trends as well. The question still remains, are companies making the right choice?
It's true that a younger hire may cost less, but they also need more training. Instead of simply learning how your office functions, they may be entering an office-environment for the first time. There's a lot to learn about corporate culture that can only come from experience.
Diverse Hiring is the Smart Option
That's why it's smart for businesses to diversify in their hiring practices and avoid age discrimination. A good mix of employees of all ages ensures that you have seasoned employees who can adequately guide the young hires. That's how community has always worked and make no mistake: your office is a team, and a team is a community.
One of the biggest complaints large companies have about Millennial workers is that they don't understand how to function in an office environment. This is why so many offices are changing how they do things. However, it has always been true that young hires have to be taught this skill.
There is only so much that can change in an office setting, and it helps to have a system in place that teaches Millenials how to function in an office environment. In this scenario, both sides are learning and growing. Your business is getting streamlined, and your young hires are learning to fit in to the aspects of your environment that simply can't be changed.
What do you think? Do younger people need to learn how to function in an office environment? Have you ever experienced age discrimination, either as a younger or older employee? Let us know in the comments!

U.K. Finance Minister Sajid Javid Unexpectedly Resigns in Protest Against Boris Johnson's Post-Election Reshuffle
Chancellor of the Exchequer Sajid Javid arrives in Westminster on February 13, 2020 in London, England.
Leon Neal—Getty Images
Updated: February 13, 2020 9:21 AM ET | Originally published: February 13, 2020 7:21 AM EST
The U.K.'s finance minister Sajid Javid has unexpectedly resigned from his post in Boris Johnson's government, as the U.K. Prime Minister embarks on the first shakeup of his top team since his emphatic election victory in December.
Javid was reportedly told to sack his entire team of advisors to keep his job. Instead, he chose to resign.
Javid's resignation could mean more power concentrated in the hands of the Prime Minister. To replace him, Johnson appointed an inexperienced minister, Rishi Sunak, as Chancellor of the Exchequer (the formal title for Britain's finance minister) on Thursday. And the U.K. Treasury's advisory team is now reportedly set to be merged with one in the Prime Minister's office, 10 Downing Street, a potentially long-lasting shift in the way Britain is governed.
Ahead of Johnson's reshuffle on Thursday, government sources briefed the media that the changes would be minor. Javid's resignation changes that.
The son of a Pakistani bus driver who rose through the ranks of the Conservative Party, Javid was Home Secretary (interior minister) before being appointed Chancellor when Johnson became Prime Minister in July. He had run for the top job himself in the Conservatives' internal leadership contest over the summer of 2019, and was tipped by some for a future role leading the party.
But in his role as Chancellor, Javid — an advocate of restrained state spending — reportedly clashed with Johnson's team in 10 Downing Street, who have talked about increasing public spending in a break from Conservative tradition. "Javid was to the economic right, he always regarded himself as a Thatcherite," says Rob Ford, politics professor at the University of Manchester, referring to Britain's former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, a champion of the neoliberal free market. "If you look at the voters Conservatives have won over the last two electoral cycles, these are people who are socially on the right — nationalistic, anti-E.U., anti immigration — but economically broadly on the left, favoring more government intervention, don't think the economy is fair, don't particularly love free markets," Ford says. "If you wanted to secure that section of the electorate, it makes sense to move to the left economically."
Replacing him as finance minister — just four weeks ahead of the U.K. budget announcement, the biggest date in the Chancellor's calendar — is Sunak, former chief secretary to the Treasury and a rising star in the Conservative Party. "He's very young, very junior, very much an unknown quantity," says Ford. "He's come into a job where his predecessor said, 'I'll never work in this job under these conditions.'"
The promotion is a steep one for Sunak, a Johnson loyalist. In his former role, Sunak would attend cabinet meetings but his position was not that of a cabinet minister. Now, he takes on arguably the second most powerful position in the U.K. government.
Javid's resignation will also cast fresh scrutiny on the role of Johnson's top advisor, Dominic Cummings, a divisive figure in Westminster who wants swingeing reforms of the U.K. government system, and has been unafraid to sack ministerial aides — and now, apparently, ministers — if they refuse to cooperate.
The opposition Labour Party was quick to criticize the events of Thursday morning. "This is a historical record," said John McDonnell, Sunak's opposite number in the Labour Party. "A government in chaos within weeks of an election. It's clear Dominic Cummings has won the battle to take absolute control of the Treasury and has installed his stooge as the Chancellor."
Also relieved from his cabinet position on Thursday was Julian Smith, the Northern Ireland secretary who had succeeded where his predecessors had failed in facilitating a resumption of power-sharing in the Northern Irish assembly, which collapsed following a scandal in 2017. Accompanying Smith out of Downing Street's metaphorical garbage chute were business secretary Andrea Leadsom, who was reportedly seen as having underperformed; and attorney general Geoffrey Cox, who will be best remembered for providing legal justification (eventually struck down in the supreme court) for suspending Parliament in September, at the height of the Brexit drama.
Johnson also appointed Alok Sharma, the former international development secretary, to head up Britain's preparations for the crunch COP 26 climate conference set to be held in Glasgow in November. The conference marks five years since the Paris Agreement was reached and and is a crucial moment in international efforts on climate change, with countries due to upgrade the goals on cutting emissions they set at the 2015 meeting.

Windfall Taxes Sweep Through The Global Energy Sector
According to a recent Wood…
OPEC Needs 650,000 bpd To Avoid Global Supply Deficit
By Nick Cunningham - Jun 29, 2016, 3:47 PM CDT
Oil prices rose again on Wednesday, as fears over the fallout from the Brexit continued to abate. But some potential supply outages also added positive momentum to crude oil.
A potential strike of oil workers threatens oil production in Norway in the coming days. Oil worker unions set a deadline for Friday, July 1 for their wage demands to be met. If negotiations don't conclude successfully by then, about 7,500 workers will initiate a strike beginning on Saturday. Reuters estimates the strike could affect about one fifth of Norway's 1.6 million barrels of daily (mb/d) oil production, or just under 300,000 barrels per day. A 2012 strike in Norway temporarily knocked off about 13 percent of the country's oil production.
Another supply disruption is looming in Venezuela, although this one would be much longer lasting and more difficult to reverse. Oil production has been declining for years in Venezuela, but a more acute outage could be coming this year due to the country's economic crisis. The Venezuelan government and its state-owned oil company PDVSA are quickly running out of cash, falling into arrears to international companies that help produce oil in the country. Barclays estimates that Venezuela's oil production could fall by 11 percent this year to 2.1 mb/d. Related: The One Chart That Shows Why Oil Prices Have To Keep Rising
A default looms in the fourth quarter of this year as $4 billion in debt payments fall due for PDVSA. Moody's wrote earlier this month that the state-owned company is "highly unlikely" to have enough resources to meet that payment. The Venezuelan government has long placed a high priority on meeting debt payments in order not to run afoul of the bond markets. "The situation is becoming more and more difficult for oil services in Venezuela," Baptiste Lebacq, an analyst at Natixis SA, told Bloomberg.
A default by PDVSA would push the state closer to the brink, and ultimately would probably tip it over into default as well. Looking at credit-default swaps, the market is projecting a 60 percent probability of a default in the next year, according to Bloomberg.
The fiscal calamity likely means that oilfield service companies will go unpaid. Schlumberger has already cut back on operations in Venezuela because PDVSA has failed to pay the company $1.2 billion that it is owed. PDVSA also owes Halliburton about $756 million. "They have been operating in the country for more than 100 years," Venezuela's oil minister Eulogio Del Pino said, trying to put a brave face on the problem. "They are not going to leave."
But if Venezuela cannot pay the companies, oil production will take a hit. While Barclays says that a loss of around 250,000 barrels per day is possible, a much sharper drop off is also conceivable. In the bank's worst-case scenario, Venezuela's oil production could plummet to 1.7 mb/d by the end of 2016, or a plunge of more than 600,000 barrels per day. Related: Brexit Puts North Sea Oil In Limbo
Bloomberg estimates that OPEC will need to come up with an additional 650,000 barrels per day if the oil market is to avoid a supply surplus flipping to a deficit. Outages in Venezuela, combined with ongoing disruptions in Libya and Nigeria are going a long way to erasing the surplus.
Still, it is important to note that the outages are not a given. Moreover, Nigeria is already working to bring back some lost production. Repairs and restarts to damaged infrastructure has allowed Nigeria to boost output from 1.3 mb/d to 1.9 mb/d.
And although Venezuela presents a huge risk to global supplies, the market is not exactly tight just yet. According to the EIA's administrator Adam Sieminski, there is "still too much supply." He told Bloomberg Surveillance on June 27 that although the surplus is shrinking, there is still some time left before we reach a balance. "We are at least a half a million barrels per day over what demand is. That means inventories are still building slightly," he said. But he also said things are trending in the right direction. "But this is just on the cusp of changing. In about another two quarters we are going to see those supply and demand lines cross, inventories will start to draw, and that's probably going to support prices in the market."

We'd like to extend our special thanks to Brian Purvis, Jim Hogan, Sandra Montes, Ken Wissel, Bernardo Guevara, David Todd and all of the DOT representatives who contributed information to this quarter's newsletter.
Happy New Year to all of our readers! The new year is an exciting one for Safe Highway Matters and SafeHighways.org with the launch of a brand new website, a Twitter page and a Facebook page. With these new additions, Safe Highway Matters continues to enhance its network for Safety Service Patrol professionals.
The website will house all of our previously published articles as well as links to studies and our national chart on Safety Service Patrols, while our Twitter and Facebook pages will keep you informed of the latest news stories about Safety Service Patrols and notifications of participation requests from Safe Highway Matters. All of these new outlets encourage communication between Safety Service Patrol Operators, professionals and administrators and our staff, and most importantly, amongst each other. Each article gives readers the option to leave a comment to provide feedback to SafeHighways.org as well as voicing opinions on the article topic.
This issue looks at the process by which DOT's and administering agencies determine the best patrol routes for Safety Service Patrols. Our feature article looks at New Jersey DOT, Michigan DOT and Virginia DOT patrols, while a sidebar article on Colorado DOT's Heavy Tow Program demonstrates the effectiveness of pinpointing an area that requires additional efforts and addition to keep the roadways safe and congestion down. In addition, Brian Purvis from the North Carolina DOT shares with Safe Highway Matters how NCDOT's Incident Management Assistant Patrol (IMAP) reevaluated their patrol routes and recently expanded their coverage areas.
The various methods used to determine the best patrol coverage for an area are important facets of these patrols. While budget can play a large role in this process, by and large the main objective is to keep America's roadways safe and to pinpoint those roadways that have the highest frequency of incidents. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this issue. Your input helps to further inform our readers of the multiple methods available for managing Safety Service Patrols.

Press Release The Warhol Appoints Clark Crowley-Bunyard Advancement Director
Clark Crowley-Bunyard
The Andy Warhol Museum has appointed Clark Crowley-Bunyard as its new advancement director. Crowley-Bunyard was previously senior development director at buildOn in Boston, Massachusetts. He assumed his role at The Warhol on November 27, 2017.
At buildOn, Crowley-Bunyard was the sole development professional supporting fundraising activities in Greater Boston. His responsibilities included fundraising, and successfully planning and securing donations in support of their annual fundraising dinner. Crowley-Bunyard also presented fundraising best practice trainings to members of the national development staff. Prior to working for buildOn, Crowley-Bunyard worked for the YMCA of Greater Boston as their regional development director and at the Boston Center for Adult Education as the education program manager & development associate.
"I'm very passionate about access to art education and youth development programs, and my fundraising work for the Boston Center for Adult Education, YMCA of Greater Boston, and buildOn have supported equal access for all," said Crowley-Bunyard.
Crowley-Bunyard's background in the arts includes a public relations internship that lead to an assistant position in the public relations department of the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, Massachusetts. He also served as an assistant in the public relations department of the Boston Ballet and interned at a PR agency in which he supported the Provincetown Art Association and Museum in Provincetown, Massachusetts.
"I am absolutely thrilled to welcome Clark to the Carnegie Museums team," said Michelle Horton, associate vice president, institutional partnerships at Carnegie Museums. "He is not only an exceptional fundraiser, he is personally invested in advancing contemporary art and artists in the city and region."
Patrick Moore, director of The Warhol, stated, "Clark's deep personal connection to The Warhol's mission along with his achievements as a development professional make him an ideal addition to the museum's team and to the Pittsburgh community."
"The Warhol, in keeping with its namesake's legacy, celebrates diversity," said Crowley-Bunyard. "It's LGBTQ+ programming, accessibility accommodations, and rotating exhibitions showcasing artists of varied ethnicities, provides a space for much needed education and exchange during a very divisive time in our country. I'm honored to be joining the team at The Warhol and for the opportunity to support both the curatorial mission and public programming being organized by the museum. My husband and I were very drawn to the idea of relocating to Pittsburgh due to the city's progressive reputation, history of innovation and cultural offerings."

Nanoscopic molecular containers featuring a cap that pops off in mildly acidic conditions could selectively deliver drugs to diseased tissues.
While healthy parts of the body are typical pH-neutral, inflamed tissues and tumours tend to be mildly acidic. For targeted drug delivery to these sites, researchers have been trying to develop a molecular capsule that retains its therapeutic cargo at neutral pH, but rapidly releases it as the pH drops slightly.
Such a container has been developed by a team co-led by Jia Liu at ShanghaiTech University. For the container, the team used a C-shaped molecule called an acyclic cucurbit[n]urils. These molecules feature amine functional groups at each tip of their structure, which served as anchor points for attaching the acid-sensitive molecular cap.
Tests with dye molecules as a cargo confirmed the containers selectively released their payload at mildly acidic pH, between pH 5.5 and 6.5. The released dye molecules were quickly taken up by surrounding cells. The team is now testing the containers' ability to deliver anticancer drugs to a tumour in vivo.

"This month is generally ushered in with boisterous wind and nipping frosts. The hapless mariner beholds his vessel wrecked upon the very rocks which bind his much-loved home. Vegetation perishes through severe and untimely ires!; and deluging rains, descending with impetuous force crush the springing blade, and despoil the beauty of the gay parterre. Even thus do the rude passions of man's soul break forth with resistless force at this unsettled period of existence, wrecking the fragile bark of youth. The tide of dissipation sweeps away the principles of virtue, which have not had time to take root, and every noble energy is blighted by the influence of bad example."
The Farmer's Diary, or, Beers' Ontario Almanack, for the Year of our Lord 1824
Canandaigua, NY: Printed and sold, wholesale and retail, by J. D. Bemis, 1824
AY256 N5 F26
For all their necessity, American almanacs in the early nineteenth century assumed that most farmers understood, without printed confirmation, events such as the beginning of spring. Nonetheless, warnings such as the one above about the ravages of early spring weather, not to mention the unsettling effect it has on the "fragile bark of youth," pervaded these sage documents. As evidenced here, spring fever was alive and well in 1824.
Attorney Andrew Beers acted as chief polymath for several almanacs in New York City before he moved to Albany in 1797. He began working with printers in western New York towns wanting to issue almanacs particular to their areas. Newspaperman and publisher James D. Bemis of Canandaigua, nine miles from the home of Joseph Smith, turned to Beers for help with astronomical, monetary and other calculations invaluable to local farmers and businessmen. Bemus was the editor of the Ontario Repository and Genesee Advertiser. Ontario County, New York was home to Joseph Smith and his family between 1816 and 1830.

"'Let us have peace.' The expressions of these kindly feelings were not restricted to a section of the country, nor to a division of the people. They came from individual citizens of all nationalieties; from all denominations — the Protestant, the Catholic, and the Jew; and from the various societies of the land — scientific, educational, religious, or otherwise. Politics did not enter into the matter at all."
PERSONAL MEMOIRS OF U. S. GRANT
Ulysses S. Grant (1822-1885)
New York: C. L. Webster & Co., 1885-86
E672 G76 1885
An ineffectual, if not disastrous, president, ruined by bankruptcy after being defrauded of his estate, and dying of throat cancer, Ulysses S. Grant, Union hero of the American Civil War, agreed to publish his memoirs. He needed the money to try to secure an economically stable future for his family.
Samuel Clemens, whose pen name was Mark Twain, served as his editor. In the last month of his life, Grant struggled to dictate his notes to a stenographer and managed to finish his memoirs shortly before his death. For Clemens, witnessing the tenacity of the dying man, Grant became, once more, a heroic figure.
The memoirs focused almost entirely on the old general's actions during the war. Still considered among the greatest of military memoirs, the two volume set became an immediate bestseller, praised for its high literary qualities. Grant's style was straightforward and compelling. Clemens compared the book to Julius Caesar's Commentaries. Gertrude Stein admired the book and said that she could not think of Grant without weeping.
His Memoirs were a financial and critical success. Thousands of war veterans and their families made a ready market for the book. Grant's family, who received seventy-five percent of the royalties, quickly re-established their fortune, receiving nearly a half million dollars from the book.

Route from Liverpool to Great Salt Lake Valley Illustrated with Steel Engravings and Wood Cuts from Sketches…
Frederick Hawkins Piercy (1839-1891)
Liverpool: F. D. Richards; London: Latter-Day Saints' Book Depot, 1854

"Frederick Piercy was the eighth of nine children born in Portsea, Hampshire, England. He joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on March 23, 1848, and a year later, he married Angelina Hawkins, also a convert. When Piercy was twenty and his wife was expecting their first child, he left for a short mission to Paris, France. In addition to proselytizing, he produced artwork and can be considered a predecessor to the Paris art missionaries who came years later.
"Piercy was an artist know for portraiture and landscapes, and he exhibited at the Royal Academy of Arts and at the Suffolk Street Gallery of the Society of British Artists in London prior to leaving for the Salt Lake Valley. In 1853, then twenty-three years old, Piercy left England aboard the emigrant ship Jersey, which was headed for New Orleans. He and James Linforth, an editor for the Mormon newspaper Millennial Star, published a collection of engravings and woodcuts made from Piercy's drawings, paintings, and journals in the book Route from Liverpool to Great Salt Lake Valley. Instead of remaining in Utah like many others, Piercy returned to England shortly after his trip. By April 1857, after refusing to return to the Salt Lake Valley at the behest of both Brigham Young and Orson Pratt, Piercy and his wife left the Mormon faith."

Tibetans have been debating about Tibetan Language preservation for a while. Fortunately, in recent years, these debates have turned into a movement or protests led by Tibetans students in Tibet, in places as Amdo Rebkong and Chabcha. A few months back, Tibetans on WeChat were criticizing two local Chinese chiefs of the education bureau in Tibet. They are Tan Ke, the Chief of Ngaba (Aba) Prefecture Education Bureau and Han Tin Bhu, the Chief of Ganlho Prefecture Education Bureau.
Tibetans online were saying that these two Chiefs insulted the Tibetan language and talked about the lack of future for people studying the Tibetan language.
Tibetans on WeChat were sharing the photos of these two chiefs. Tibetans were also sharing a cartoon in which these two representatives of the county education bureau and the prefecture education bureau were holding a giant scissor and a hammer and smashing and cutting up the letters of the Tibetan alphabet.
Dear Bureau Chief, let me ask a question first: how do you know there won't be a career for those who learn Tibetan? Is is that the Chinese government plans to eradicate Tibetan language in future? You are a government official, so you may know lots of things that we the general people are not aware of.
Dear Bureau Chief, as Chinese language is more popular than Tibetan language, so English is more popular than Chinese. Have you abandoned Chinese and started embracing English? When does China plan to abandon the less popular Chinese language and embrace the more popular English language as the official language? If you have such a proposal, maybe we should learn English together?
Dear Bureau Chief, Tibetan language has not automatically become a useless language, but it is made so with so many measures and methods. So, if you want to give more of such speeches, please specify what you mean.
Dear Bureau Chief, one of the greatest communist leaders Joseph Stalin said that if you want to destroy a nationality, you first have to destroy their language. You may or may not have heard of these words,but you have to accept that this is what Joseph Stalin said. As such, your advocacy of Tibetan language being useless for career security is the first step towards this direction. Can a petty official like you take responsibility for this?
Dear Bureau Chief, any language of whatever nationality is not only meant for keeping your stomach full or getting you promoted. For a nationality that is on the verge of disappearing, her language is the only place where her culture can breathe. One's culture is one's inner ideology and outer behavior, so what you are asking the Tibetan people is to leave the motherland of our inner ideology and outer behavior. This might be easy for you to say, but it is too hard for us to do.
Dear Bureau Chief, any heritage, let it be small or big, of Tibetan language and Tibetan culture is a part of the treasure of human civilization. Our ancestors passed on this heritage for thousands of years with their blood and sweat. This is also the best gift we Tibetans present to humankind. So, please don't block our way to preserve it.
This is dedicated to Tibetan students who are protesting against the speech given by Tan Ke, the Chief of Ngawa(Aba) Prefecture Education Bureau.
What does it mean that, although it has been a long time since the Chinese government changed all the textbooks from Tibetan into Chinese in many areas of Tibet, Tibetans and Tibetan students are still putting in so much effort towards preserving the Tibetan language and fighting for their language rights? Does the Chinese government policy answer to the hopes and desires of the Tibetans?

Abstract - The presence of an adventitious distal abscissa in the forewing venation of honey bees is recorded. The vein arises from the posterior quarter of the second submarginal cell, on the apical surface of the 2rs-m crossvein. The homology of this vein is discussed and its presence broadly compared across Hymenoptera so as to establish its correct identity. Based on the overall homology of hymenopteran wing venation it is concluded that this is a reacquisition the vein "Rs2" and we accordingly tentatively term it "aRs2". The aRs2 was found in both Apis cerana Fabricius and A. mellifera Linnaeus at moderate frequencies, although it predominantly occurs in northeast Asian populations of the former. Species of the giant honey bees (Megapis) and dwarf honey bees (Micrapis) were found to lack the vein entirely, while the vein was found at low levels in other Asian lineages (Apis s.str.). The predilection to possess the vein appears to be a trait supporting the cavity-nesting honey bee clade (Apis s.str.).

As a book blog, I will do my best to keep my topics bookish.
Have you read any good books recently? Can you recommend any? I am currently reading The Assistants by Camille Perri as an ARC. It's a corporate story about embezzlement and education getting you no further than a PA's job.
I am also currently still reading Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman, as well as The Museum of Extraordinary Things by Alice Hoffman. I usually have at least one eBook and one paperback at the same time.
What I really got into this year is audiobooks. It's really nice to listen to them in the car,sort of like having someone in the car with you who is talking to you. So far, I'm on my 9th audiobook. Currently, I am listening to a full-cast production of Neil Gaiman's The Graveyard Book (can you see a trend there?). I love this one! Narrated by Sir Derek Jacobi, with a cast including Robert Madge as Bod, Miriam Margolyes as Mrs. Owens and Mrs. Lupescu, Andrew Scott as Jack the Man, as well as Lenny Henry, Reece Shearsmith, Emilia Fox and Neil Gaiman himself.
What's your opinion on audiobooks? Do you listen to them? Do you prefer a "proper" reading or a full-cast production with voices and sound effects?
Anyway, I'm on a bit of a deadline with one review, so I need to get back to it. But thank you for having coffee with me today! Check out the other Weekend Coffee Sharers as well!
I enjoy audio books but mostly it's when I'm in the car, on a super long trip. Nothing makes 1100 miles go by quickly like audio books do. I haven't purchased any recently. I probably won't until my next big road trip.
Neil Gaiman is one of my favorite authors, and I really enjoyed The Graveyard Book. I have not tried audio books, but think I should, at least when I'm traveling.
I don't do audio books but that's more because they are so expensive and since I live so close to work it would take me forever and a year to get through one *sigh*.
I am thinking about hooking up podcasts so I can listen via phone or iPod though, just have to watch my cell data, hopefully, if they are stored locally they don't use data at all once downloaded.
I am looking for more adult books which veer away from teen angst and romance. I love romance but only certain authors and even then I have to be in the mood.
I listen to audiobooks all the time during my commute. I'm doing the Book Riot Read Harder Challenge (http://bookriot.com/2015/12/15/2016-book-riot-read-harder-challenge/) and I try to find as many books for the tasks as I can in audio version. Because of the challenge, I discovered there are annual "Audie Awards." Did you know that The Graveyard Book was a winner last year?

In late April, however, a group of authors that included John Steinbeck's son and daughter-in-law, musician Arlo Guthrie, and university professors from around the country persuaded U.S. District Judge Denny Chin to delay approval of the settlement.
"It is clear to us that the settlement, if approved, will shape the future of reading, research, writing, and publication practices for decades to come," Pamela Samuelson, co-director for the Berkeley Center for Law and Technology, wrote in a letter to Chin.

Lay's Fried Pickles with Ranch chips are finally back on grocery store shelves. Here's where to find them.
Lay's Fried Pickles with Ranch chips are back on store shelves.
Sam's Club has brought back the fan favorite Lay's Fried Pickles and Ranch chips.
The chips made their debut last year when Lay's launched eight new flavors as part of its Tastes of America contest.
They disappeared from shelves for a bit, but have been spotted again at Sam's Club.
While shopping at my local Sam's Club last weekend, my husband spotted something beyond my wildest dreams: Lay's fried pickles with ranch potato chips.
You see, ever since having my first fried pickle in Tennesee about 10 years ago, I have slowly become obsessed. I order fried pickles wherever I go and eat all the pickle-flavored snacks I can get my hands on. Apparently, however, I am behind in the times. These chips were actually around last year when Lay's launched eight different varieties of chips for their Tastes of America contest.
The fried pickles with ranch chips represented the Midwest and were inspired by state fairs. They disappeared from shelves, but we can confirm they are officially back. We don't know just how long they'll be sticking around, though. So if they're on your list of snacks you have to have, your best bet is to head to Sam's Club soon.
Fried Pickles with Ranch chips are back.
If (or when?) they do disappear from shelves again, Lay's does have dill pickle chips to help you avoid a total shock to your system. Or, of course, you could make your own fried or baked pickles. You could also step it up a notch and make these pickle mozzarella sticks. You could also make this dill pickle party mix, dill pickle hummus or dill pickle pasta salad.
If you'd rather dedicate your time to just eating all things flavored like dill pickles, you could also pick up this dill pickle chip dip. You could even double up on the pickle taste, and dip your fried pickles with ranch chips or dill pickle chips. Or better yet, why not chop up some actual dill pickles and try them in the dip?
Pickle dip is perfect for dipping chips.
Those who were fans of the other flavors released during the contest— such as New England lobster roll, pimento cheese or Chesapeake Bay crab spice — might be out of luck. I searched for all of the other flavors from the campaign, and while they once were for sale on Amazon and at Target, none are currently available.
Will you be picking up a bag of Lay's fried pickles with ranch chips before they disappear again?

After a delicious, but filling breakfast at Sweet Laurette Cafe & Bistro Leslie and I needed a walk before the shops opened. So we decided to stroll through Kha Tai Lagoon Nature Park. I didn't expect to see many birds, but I took my camera just like I always do.
I was pleasantly surprised to immediately encounter a small flock of Cedar Waxwings, where these two seemed to be pairing off.
We didn't have to walk too far to encounter these Ruddy Ducks obviously involved in mating rites.
The male in front with his bright blue bill seemed to have attracted the female's attention.
This White-crowned Sparrow seemed further along in the mating process.
We were amazed at how it managed to pick up each individual piece of grass without dropping the others it had already collected.
But considering how hard it was to spot there could easily have been a mate nearby we hadn't seen. The bird looked too noble not to have attracted a mate.
Funny. That thought crossed my mind when I first saw it.
I just stumbled across your blog. Very nice photos of the birds. Especially liked the sparrow and the comment about being able to pick up each individual peace of grass without dropping anything. Birds as builders have always fascinated me – found a perfectly round nest on the ground while riding bike the other day, and thought, who are the better craftsmen – humans with lathes and opposable thumbs or these wonderful creatures with beaks and their little bird-feet?
Also checked out your "Why Blog?" section – very nicely done. Keep posting away.
Thanks for your comments, B.R. I've put your blog on my RSS feed and will try to get some time to read it in a more depth, though I have a trip coming up and things will be real hectic for a few weeks.


Pests can pester you any day of the year, no matter whether it's in summer, fall, winter or spring.
Pests may not be as active in winter, but they're still out there and may, in fact, decide they don't like the cold and work to make their way in to your home!
Spring is a time when humans as well as pest stretch their legs (wings) and get the move, possibly getting on that move into your home.
We tend to relax in summer, but pests don't and while we all tend to slow down in fall as the weather cools, pests may decide to get cozy and out of the increasing cold and into your home.
No matter the time of year, be prepared. Click on any of the season pictures below for more information on seasonal pest control.

Lego sets, after the build
posted by Jeff | Sunday, July 29, 2018, 4:52 PM | comments: 0
As an adult, I've been able to periodically buy gigantic and expensive Lego sets, which I started doing just before Simon was born. The joy in those is the construction process. I would never be interested in building one of these sets and sticking it on a shelf somewhere. I'm not that "Lord Business" from The Lego Movie.
Well, not exactly. I am careful in that I want to maintain the integrity of the sets. I also want it to be reasonably easy to build them again. Someone asked what I do when it's time to disassemble them. Basically, I take them apart by following the instructions in reverse, to numbered bags, as they were when I opened the box. The time varies a lot, but it's usually not more than 25% of the original build time. Some sets go a little slower if the division between bags isn't clear, but some go faster. The Disney Castle, for example, is completely sectional, and the 4,000 pieces come down pretty quickly outside some of the detail work. Probably less than two hours. The new roller coaster (pictured below), took a little longer because it's not obvious where the bags split, and there's a lot of detail work with small pieces in the scenery.
Yeah, it's extra work, but it's worth it. The kits that are particularly mechanical in nature are really fun, and engage my brain in a pleasing way. The Ferris wheel in really cool. The castle ins't mechanical, but it's architecturally neat. You can't roll with too much chaos for 4,000 or more pieces.

HealthDay Reporter
FRIDAY 19 February 2021 (HealthDay News) – More than half of a group of hospitalized COVID-19 patients were found to have heart damage, according to a new British study.
148 patients undergoing severe COVID-19 treatment in six hospitals in London were included in the study. All of the patients had an increased level of a protein called troponin, which is released into the blood when the heart muscle is injured.
Researchers noted that when most hospitalized COVID-19 patients become critically ill, troponin levels rise and the body produces an exaggerated immune response to infection.
MRI scans of the patients' hearts were performed at least one month after discharge. The scans showed that 54% had heart damage.
The damage included inflammation of the heart muscle, scarring or death to heart tissue, and restricted blood flow to the heart. The findings showed that some patients had a combination of three types of damage.
The report is on February 18 European Heart Journal.
"Raised troponin levels are associated with worse outcomes in COVID-19 patients. Patients with severe COVID-19 often have pre-existing heart-related health problems such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and obesity," said Marianna Fontana, one of the study's authors. He is professor of cardiology at University College London.
"But during severe COVID-19 infection, the heart can also be directly affected. It is difficult to choose how the heart might be damaged, but MRI scans of the heart can identify different injury patterns, which can enable us to make more accurate diagnoses and to target treatments more effectively," said Fontana.
Approximately one third of the patients were using a ventilator in the intensive care unit.
Some of the heart damage in patients may be present before they catch COVID-19. But MRI scans showed that some are new and possibly the cause of COVID-19, according to Fontana.
"More importantly, the pattern of damage to the heart was varied, suggesting that the heart is at risk of different types of injury. Although we only found a small amount of ongoing injury, we saw heart damage that was present even when he suffered a heart attack. Fontana's pumping function was not impaired and with other techniques. it may not have been detected, "he said.
In the most severe cases, there are concerns that this injury may increase the risk of heart failure in the future, but more research is needed.
Fontana said the study findings presented two opportunities. The first is to find ways to avoid injury in the first place. "According to some models we've seen, blood clotting may play a role we have potential treatments," he said.
"Second, detecting the consequences of the injury during recovery can identify subjects who will benefit from specific supportive drug treatments to preserve heart function over time," Fontana said.
The American Heart Association has more on COVID-19.

Happy New Year, OWC!
Happy New Year, Ottawa Writer's Circle!
Welcome to a new decade (to most people), the Roaring Twenties 2.0 (to just me)! With a new year brings new resolutions, renewed goals, and promises of New Year, New Me. I'm here to tell you This Is Your Year To (Finally?) Write The Thing! Or Finish The Thing! Query The Thing! Publish The Thing!
This post is long (surprise!) so what am I going to talk about? What's coming up in 2020 for the OWC, a call for volunteers, and bringing back the OWC reader database with a new focus. Feel free to skip around or read on!
2020 is going to be a bit of a new year for the OWC. The Year of Getting Back to Basics, the Year of the Write In, and what we're all here for: The Writing. (And apparently The Capital Letters.) We're not shutting anything down! We're still going to have critique circles and socials; you're just going to see fewer of them on the calendar.
For Write Ins, we're hoping to get more of them in more places around the city! Like these January ones in Kanata, Westboro/Hintonburg, Barrhaven, and Downtown.
We're also focusing on more writing-focused talks. Like these Shop Talks on How to Get Back to Enjoying Your Story! January is full, but February has lots of space. Our Story Development Groups--fancy, guided brainstorming--have opened back up for some events in February (1, 29) and April. And there will be so many more new events that haven't been announced yet!
So, is there something you'd like to see happen with the OWC that we haven't talked about? Is there something we've talked about that excites you and you want in? Fill out this form and we'll be in touch! This group runs on volunteers, very little would happen without our leadership team, so if you're interested, we'd love to hear from you.
Also, we're bringing back the critique partner database for OWC members. Since we've just been adding to the old one for quite a while, it's gotten quite stale. So, we're starting from scratch with a renewed focus on critique partners, alpha readers, and beta readers. This isn't to say paid editors aren't welcome in the database, but I hope to see more two-way, long-term connections made! If you're interested in being included, please fill out this form by January 15th.
That's it! I'm looking forward to a brand new year and seeing some new and old faces out to some events. On a personal note, I know I've been a bit of The Man Behind the Curtain this year, but hopefully I can make it out and put more faces to names.
Happy New Year, all. I hope it's wonderful and all your dreams come true.
New Year, New OWC

Current paper is dedicated to Vivaldi's Violin Concerto in F minor, Op. 8, no. 3 "Autumn" (The Four Seasons) and how the music relates between each other, inside the composition, forming an incredible style of an author.
Extract of sample "The Interrelationship Between Music and Program in Vivaldis Violin Concerto in F minor, Op. 8, no. 3 Autumn (The Four Seasons) (1725)"
Download file to see previous pages .The ritornello form used in the "Autumn" concerto is clear. The tutti section in the first movement outlines the theme and is repeated numerous times in variation throughout the movement. The solo sections embellish on the main theme as well as moving into more free-flowing segments. The Italian Concerto format of three movements (fast, slow, fast) is a basic standard for the period and Vivaldi adheres to that model. Key changes in the Baroque period, from minor to major are made more rapidly than examples of concerti from the latter 18th Century where composers took more time in both tutti and solo sections before shifting to alternate keys. Phrases are often played in forte and repeated in piano; this style is a signature of Vivaldi in many of his concerti.

This article of mangore.com deals with some very basic and most too often neglected aspects of "intelligent practice". If we think that countless hours of practice are the key to becoming a Master, we are right; they are. But you must also keep in mind that they can create either a musician or a clown. Music is much more an intellectual work than it is often thought. One hour of intelligent practice is better than 8 of stubborn, mindless physical stamina. Think... David and Goliath. One may impress, but the other only needs a well set "punch". Our intellect is our most powerful weapon and, using it correctly, will make us intimately happy.
One of the first challenges for a guitarist is to find the way around some very specific technical "riddles". One of the first challenges that a musician faces is the one posed by Contraction and Extension (Stretching) of the fingers when dealing with notes that break the 4 frets natural spread of the fingers on the fret board. Read all about the left hand and stretches here. We can have different ways to deal with the challenge at hand but, eventually, they will all sum up in 2. The stupid way or the intelligent way. The intelligent way requires more intellectual work while the first more physical work. Typically we have two different types of players: Player one: hard worker but not aware of the work at hand. Player two: hopefully you and me, Hard worker and very aware of the work at hand. Awareness here may also be translated as "Concentrated".
Being able to bring out notes in chords or arpeggios is a very important technique that will allow you to keep the main notes of a musical passage in the right order of importance. I was first introduced to the technique by Maestro Abel Carlevaro when working Villa Lobos' Prelude # 1.
This passage in Vila Lobos Prelude 1 requires that you be able to make a melodic notes sequence (the F-E-D#) stand out in a chord.

A lever is a machine consisting of a beam or rigid rod pivoted at a fixed hinge, or fulcrum. It is one of the six simple machines identified by Renaissance scientists. The word comes from the French lever, "to raise" or lift. Levers amplify an input force to provide a greater output force, which is said to provide leverage. The ratio of the output force to the input force is the mechanical advantage of the lever. When dealing with the workings of the left hand, levers come in very handy because they help reduce strain and muscular fatigue exponentially.
Pivots and Levers, help the fingers in the left hand to be in total control so as to help the fingers in the left hand to behave more efficiently and find their way around the fingerboard with greater control. Both terms are self explanatory and watching the video will make it perfectly clear. The efficient use of both pivots and levers will translate in more fluidity and less mistakes in the left hand.
Pivot is an often misunderstood concept. Many guitarists apply it one way or another but not as effectively or consciously as they could.
When you look at other string players, violinists especially, you will see how they use the left hand and arm in a more unified way than we guitarists do. It helps to use one or more fingers as pivots and/or levers to achieve this movements more precisely and to take full advantage of the laws of nature such as gravity and physical concepts such as that of a pendulum.
In the example above, finger 4 is the PIVOT onto which the lever will work in order to change of position. This situation is taken from the beginning of the second part of the Bach Gavottes masterclass.


My Mother was a big fan of early Rock N Roll. So whenever an old time Rock music festival or a concert of some super star of yesteryear was in the area, she would try and get tickets. I did not appreciate it at the time, but as an adult, I am happy to have seen a lot of these artists perform.
For those of you who did not get "dragged" to these shows, you can enjoy a lot of what were already retro performance in the 1980s through the magic of TV being uploaded on the internet. I stumbled across this 25 Years of Jerry Lee Lewis the other night and it made me smile as I remember seeing Jerry Lee at some point in the 1980s and patiently waiting for it to end while my Mother and sisters and everyone else were enthralled. A missed opportunity for enjoyment by a young me, who just wanted to go home and play Nintendo, but the memory has aged well and I think because of it, I can enjoy some Jerry Lee.
