Review: Finding Audrey - Sophie Kinsella
Finding Audrey by Sophie Kinsella, published by Doubleday Children's Books on 4th June 2015
Audrey can't leave the house. she can't even take off her dark glasses inside the house.
Then her brother's friend Linus stumbles into her life. With his friendly, orange-slice smile and his funny notes, he starts to entice Audrey out again - well, Starbucks is a start.And with Linus at her side, Audrey feels like she can do the things she'd thought were too scary. Suddenly, finding her way back to the real world seems achievable.
'Finding Audrey' is Sophie Kinsella's first young-adult novel. I love all of her other books, especially the Shopaholic series, so I knew immediately that I wanted to read this title. I wasn't sure what to expect, as I didn't know a lot about the subject matter but I ended up thoroughly enjoying it and laughing a lot as I was reading it too.
Wonderfully funny and heart-warming, the story centres around fourteen year old Audrey. Audrey is a fantastic character who I instantly liked. We learn throughout the course of the book that she is suffering from social anxiety disorder after an incident at her school. She can't leave the house, she wears dark glasses all the time and she struggles to make eye contact or even to talk to people she doesn't know. All in all, she is finding things hard going and is struggling to get her life back on track. I actually don't think I've read a book before which deals with this subject matter. I thought that Sophie Kinsella did a great job of portraying Audrey's emotions and feelings and I felt much more informed about the disorder itself and the effect it can have.
Audrey's family are absolutely brilliant. I adored her computer mad brother Frank and I loved the constant battle her Mum has to separate Frank and his beloved computer games. She certainly goes to some extreme lengths but it's always clear that she is doing it because she wants the best for him. Audrey's Mum is quite a larger than life character in the book and is often at the centre of some of the funniest moments in the book. Ultimately, you can see what a close knit family they are and the subtle ways that they are there to support each other.
Frank's friend Linus also helps Audrey to face the world again and I enjoyed seeing the progress that she makes to try and overcome the emotions that she is struggling with. By the end of the story she has undergone a lot of positive changes. Her message is one about facing life's ups and downs and trying to always have the courage to deal with the good and the bad. It's an uplifting story which teaches us to the importance of living without fear.

Review: The 100: Homecoming - Kass Morgan
The 100: Homecoming by Kass Morgan, published by Hodder on 26th February 2015
Weeks after landing on Earth, the Hundred have managed to create a sense of order amidst their wild, chaotic surroundings. But their delicate balance comes crashing down with the arrival of new dropships from space.
These new arrivals are the lucky ones - back on the Colony, the oxygen is almost gone - but after making it safely to Earth, GLASS's luck seems to be running out. CLARKE leads a rescue party to the crash site, ready to treat the wounded, but she can't stop thinking about her parents who may still be alive. Meanwhile, WELLS struggles to maintain his authority despite the presence of the Vice Chancellor and his armed guards, and BELLAMY must decide whether to face or flee the crimes he thought he'd left behind.
It's time for the Hundred to come together and fight for the freedom they've found on Earth, or risk losing everything - and everyone - they love.
This is the third and final book in The 100 trilogy. I absolutely love this series so I delved straight into the opening chapter as soon as the book arrived. I devoured it in one sitting too! It was sooo good and a brilliant ending to what has been a fantastic adventure. Everyone's stories were concluded properly and no loose ends were left which always drives me mad. Although I am a massive fan of these books, I haven't actually been watching the TV series...yet. I have all the episodes recorded but I didn't want to watch them until I had finished reading the books. I'm now going to have a huge catch-up weekend. It will be interesting to see if I like the same characters when I see them on TV and whether much of the plot has been changed.
The story itself picks up where 'Day 21' left off. The colony is on it's way to earth in the remaining drop ships and the 100 have to adapt again when they arrive and immediately begin to disrupt their carefully ordered existence. Once again, Morgan shows us all the key players - Glass, Clarke, Wells and Bellamy, and how they cope with the adults arrival.
My favourite couple has always been Glass and Luke, so I was desperately rooting for them. I wanted them to get their happy ever after, particularly in light of all they had gone through to get to earth. Clarke, Wells and Bellamy also have their own challenges to face and I enjoyed following them on their journeys. They have had to do a lot of growing-up in a short space of time but they have matured and changed a lot since we were first introduced to them.
Exciting action and adventure is driven at a relentless pace in this final instalment. The various factions get the opportunity to face off against each, as the battle for survival reaches a climatic finish. I have really enjoyed the different settings in the series and seeing how all the characters have managed to survive both in space and in a foreign and unknown environment. Brilliant from start to finish, I would highly recommend this series.

Review: All Fall Down - Ally Carter
All Fall Down by Ally Carter, published by Orchard Books on 5th February 2015
Grace can best be described as a daredevil, an Army brat, and a rebel. She is also the only granddaughter of perhaps the most powerful ambassador in the world and Grace has spent every summer of her childhood running across the roofs of Embassy Row.
Now, at age sixteen, she's come back to stay - in order to solve the mystery of her mother's death. In the process, she uncovers an international conspiracy of unsettling proportions, and must choose her friends and watch her foes carefully if she and the world are to be saved.
'All Fall Down' is the first in a brand new series from the author of the Gallagher Girls books. This was one of my most hotly anticipated titles of the year and it did not disappoint. Like all of Ally Carter's books, it was fast-paced, suspense driven and exciting with a typically plucky female protagonist and a whole cast of other fab characters. I really loved it and I can't wait for the next book in the Embassy Row series.
The story centres around teenager Grace who goes to live with her Grandfather in the US Embassy, based in Adria. Grace is haunted by the death of her mother three years before and vehemently believes that she was murdered, rather than having died accidentally in a fire. No one will believe her, so she sets out to prove them wrong.
I really loved Grace. Ally Carter's characters are always fantastic but I clicked with Grace from the very beginning. She is driven, brave and isn't afraid to take risks. She is not someone who will give up easily and she is undeterred by the people around her who are trying to stop her from pursuing her mother's death. Her single-minded mission is dangerous but Grace seems to thrive on getting herself out of sticky spots.
There is a great cast of secondary characters in the story too. Megan, her new best friend Noah and Rosie were all brilliant. It reminded me of the Gallagher Girls series where they all come together to watch each other's backs and protect one another. I desperately want to see more of Alexei too, the Russian boy next door, who could be a potential love interest. He came across as pretty mysterious, so I'm looking forward to a few of his secrets being spilled.
I thought the setting was very unique too with the story taking place in and out of a whole row of international embassies. The plot was fantastic and there were lots of twists and turns which kept me on my toes. A mega twist and a big reveal at the end, left me in no doubt that I would be grabbing the second book as soon as it's published.

Review: The Wondrous and the Wicked - Page Morgan
The Wondrous and the Wicked by Page Morgan, published by Hot Key Books on 7th May 2015
Ingrid Waverly has never been more alone, or more frightened. Her sister has fled to London in fear for her life, and Luc, the one person she thought she could rely on more than anyone else in the world, has also disappeared. No one will tell Ingrid where he has gone, but rumours of a fierce leadership battle amongst the supernatural forces who protect Paris are swirling, and Ingrid fears he has been forced into a dangerous position.
And it is a dangerous time to be a leader in this city - the number of demons flooding Paris's streets are overwhelming, and Ingrid and her few allies cannot cope. All the signs point to some kind of final uprising from the Underworld - but how can it possibly be defeated when the only people who stand a chance of doing so are too busy fighting themselves? Once again, everything comes down to Luc and Ingrid, and whether they can draw on each other's strength as well as their own. And this time, love really must conquer all.
'The Wondrous and the Wicked' is the third and final part of Page Morgan's gothic gargoyle trilogy, set amidst the streets of Paris.
The Waverly siblings have already endured so much and faced loss, pain and heartache. I wasn't sure what more could possibly lie in wait for them. In this concluding book, they each have their own personal challenges to face before they can have any chance at the lives they really want. Separated geographically, they are caught in the middle of a dangerous power struggle with heavy stakes.
Page Morgan quickly gets readers up to speed with what happened in the previous instalments. I was thankful of a speedy recap because it's been a while since I read this series. It actually reminded me of just how much drama and action had taken place so far. Everything is still to play for.
My favourite character in the series has always been Gabby, the feisty and brave younger sister. At the beginning of the book she has been sent to London for her own protection. I knew however, that she would still find her way back into the middle of the action. Gabby isn't one for just sitting on the side-lines. I have loved the growing romance between her and Nolan, which I'm pleased to say gets even better. There are some really fantastic scenes between the two of them.
Ingrid and Luc's romance is played out too with Vander and Luc still vying for Ingrid's heart. I won't reveal which one wins the girl in the end but I'm sure readers of the series will be more than satisfied.
This is definitely a very underrated series which I'm pleased to say I have really enjoyed. I've loved all the gothic and supernatural elements and the wonderfully dark setting of historic Paris where anything could be (and frequently is!) lurking in the sewers.

Review: Saint Anything - Sarah Dessen
Saint Anything by Sarah Dessen, published by Penguin on 5th May 2015
Peyton, Sydney's charismatic older brother, has always been the star of the family, receiving the lion's share of their parents' attention and—lately—concern. When Peyton's increasingly reckless behavior culminates in an accident, a drunk driving conviction, and a jail sentence, Sydney is cast adrift, searching for her place in the family and the world. When everyone else is so worried about Peyton, is she the only one concerned about the victim of the accident?
Enter the Chathams, a warm, chaotic family who run a pizza parlor, play bluegrass on weekends, and pitch in to care for their mother, who has multiple sclerosis. Here Sydney experiences unquestioning acceptance. And here she meets Mac, gentle, watchful, and protective, who makes Sydney feel seen, really seen, for the first time.
I was incredibly excited to hear about a new Sarah Dessen book. I'm a big fan of hers and associate her with stories about summer, growing-up and relationship dramas. 'Saint Anything' ticked two out of three of those boxes. This definitely wasn't my favourite Dessen novel, I think partly because of the characters and partly the storyline itself, but it was still pretty great and dealt with some powerful subjects.
The book starts with the main character Sydney recounting the story of what happened to her older brother Peyton. There's a lot of hero-worship mixed in with new feelings which have surfaced in relation to his behaviour. I could empathise with the situation she felt in and the fact that she believed herself invisible to her parents. They were consumed with trying to help her brother and make sense of his situation and Sydney feels pushed to the side-lines. There's no doubt that she loves Peyton but she understandably also experiences a sense of guilt about the anger she has towards him. The brother-sister bond is one which Dessen explores a lot in this novel and that was one of my favourite elements of the book.
When Sydney starts at a new school, she meets Layla and her brother Mac. Being part of their group, helps Sydney to understand where she fits in and their friendship is the catalyst for her finally starting to get her own life together. I particularly liked Layla, especially the way she takes Sydney under her wing and the way she freely offers her hand in friendship without any strings attached. For some reason and I can't quite put my finger on why, I wasn't as keen on Mac which is a shame because normally I love the male protagonists in Sarah Dessen's books. He had lots of great qualities but I just didn't fall in love with him.
A lot of heavy and serious themes are touched upon in 'Saint Anything' and I thought that these were all explored in such a way as to really make the reader think about what they would do in the same situations. There are no right or wrong answers but it came across that everyone has to do what they personally feel is right, rather than trying to conform to what someone else thinks they should do or how they should act.
Sarah Dessen's books always feature stand-out writing and this was no exception but I found the pace a little slow at times and the romance felt a bit flat. I would still recommend giving this one a go but there are other titles by her that I personally have enjoyed more.

Review: Rogue - Julie Kagawa
Rogue by Julie Kagawa, published by Mira Ink on 7th May 2015
Ember Hill left the dragon organization Talon to take her chances with rebel dragon Cobalt and his crew of rogues. But Ember can't forget the sacrifice made for her by the human boy who could have killed her—Garret Xavier Sebastian, a soldier of the dragonslaying Order of St. George, the boy who saved her from a Talon assassin, knowing that by doing so, he'd signed his own death warrant.
Determined to save Garret from execution, Ember must convince Cobalt to help her break into the Order's headquarters. With assassins after them and Ember's own brother helping Talon with the hunt, the rogues find an unexpected ally in Garret and a new perspective on the underground battle between Talon and St. George.
If you're looking for a scorching hot read, then look no further than 'Rogue' by Julie Kagawa, the follow-up to the brilliant 'Talon'. The second book in this fantastic series manages to do what few books can and that is to be even more gripping and captivating than it's predecessor. There's no case of second book syndrome here, as Julie Kagawa cranks up the action, ramps up the tension a couple of notches and leads the reader on a breathless journey of rescue, capture and escape. 'Talon' held me in thrall from the opening chapter and this was one book that I was most definitely going to finish reading in one sitting.
The story picks up after the action of 'Rogue' with Ember and Riley on the run and Garret held to account for his actions by the Order of St. George. It didn't take me long to get reacquainted with all the characters and the plot threads and I was soon immersed back into the world of dragons. I have read a lot of dragon books, going through quite a phase when I was in my teens, but this is the first series I've read where the author is spot on with the mythology and the world building. I love the idea of dragons assimilating themselves into the human world and walking amongst us without anyone realising.
The commentary is shared between Ember, Garret, Riley and Dante, with occasional flashbacks to twelve years ago when Riley, as rebel dragon Cobalt, was still working for the organisation he now despises. I wasn't too sure about Riley in the last book but he has suddenly become my number one favourite character. It was great discovering more about him and his past and I really enjoyed all the scenes between not only him and Ember but also him and Wes, his right-hand man. The love triangle between Riley, Ember and Garret continues to play out and while I feel strongly that I know which way it's going to end up, I am still firmly shipping Riley and Ember as a couple. They are great together and share a real understanding and bond.
There are some terrific action sequences in the book, particularly in the second-half of the story and I was on the edge of my seat throughout these. I honestly had no idea if everyone was going to make it to the end of the book alive. There is also a humongous revelation right at the end of the last chapter which leaves the reader on a massive cliff-hanger. I need to know now what is going to happen next!
The third book in the series, 'Soldier' will be published in 2016 unless my wish is granted and it gets an earlier release date!

Review: A Court of Thorns and Roses - Sarah J. Maas
A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas, published by Bloomsbury on 5th May 2015
When nineteen-year-old huntress Feyre kills a wolf in the woods, a beast-like creature arrives to demand retribution for it. Dragged to a treacherous magical land she only knows about from legends, Feyre discovers that her captor is not an animal, but Tamlin—one of the lethal, immortal faeries who once ruled their world.
As she dwells on his estate, her feelings for Tamlin transform from icy hostility into a fiery passion that burns through every lie and warning she's been told about the beautiful, dangerous world of the Fae. But an ancient, wicked shadow grows over the faerie lands, and Feyre must find a way to stop it . . . or doom Tamlin—and his world—forever.
'A Court of Thorns and Roses' should be on everyone's to-read list. An epic fantasy with adventure, danger, drama and romance, it proves Sarah J. Maas's credentials yet again as the one author you don't want to miss out on. She is on my auto-buy list and dare I say it (because normally I can't choose just one) may actually have taken the crown of my favourite author. If you haven't discovered her yet then you must be living under a rock!
The Throne of Glass series is one of the best fantasy series out there. I didn't think anything would be able to come close to topping it until I read this book and was totally blown away. Gripping and entrancing from start to finish, I loved every single second of the story. It was even better than I'd imagined it would be.
The story centres around main character Feyre who slaughters a wolf while out hunting. Trying to provide for her father and two sisters, she will do whatever it takes to keep food on their table. However, Feyre finds herself having to pay for her actions and ends up in the faeries world of Prythian - her prison or her salvation?
Feyre has all the best traits and characteristics of a Sarah J. Maas heroine. She is incredibly strong - not necessarily physically, but she is strong in mind. She is a survivor and will always find a way out of the most difficult situations. She is brave, fearless and adaptable. She is someone to admire. Her relationship with High Lord Tamlin was one of my favourite things about the story. Although their first meeting sees them not exactly getting off on the right foot, they soon become more to each other. I enjoyed watching their bond deepen and grow as they begin to understand each others character. Another interesting relationship is set up near the end of the book between Feyre and a new character. I'm intrigued to find out how this is going to develop and how it will affect Feyre's romance with Tamlin.
This book had it all! The second half was so exciting that I couldn't put it down. While I wanted to make the story last, I also just had to race through it because I needed to know desperately what was going to happen next. A stunning read with a heart shattering romance at it's centre. I adored this book. It was phenomenally brilliant and I'm dying to read it all over again.
The first in a trilogy, I can't believe that I have to wait until I get more of Feyre and Tamlin. It's going to be so hard but I shall be counting down the days until publication day for book two.

While he was away, mom and dad caught a ferry from Cape Cod to Martha's Vineyard, an island about 20 miles offshore that's long been a favorite vacation resort for politicians (including, of course, the Kennedys) and other celebrities. In the seventies, MV residents started a petition to have the island become our 51st state – but as of now, it's still officially part of Massachusetts.
We spent two days biking around the island, and stayed at a campground with our tiny tent. (There was nothing tiny about the camping rates, nor anything else on the island.) In the town of Oak Bluffs, we saw the Flying Horses, the oldest continuously operating carousel in the U.S., having been built in 1876. And we thought WE'D been going around in circles for a long time!

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kwara state says no amount of attacks directed at the national leader of the party and Senate President, Bukola Saraki, by All Progressive Congress (APC) leaders during their presidential rally in Ilorin on Monday, will not dissuade Kwarans from supporting him and his party.
In a statement by its State Publicity Secretary, Tunde Ashaolu, the PDP noted that rather than telling the people what their party had done in the last three years, the APC leaders including its national leader, Bola Tinubu, allegedly resorted to attacking and insulting the Senate President.
"All through their campaign today, all they could do was to cast aspersion on the person of Dr Bukola Saraki. Most comments at the rally were nothing but verbal attacks, invectives, character assassination and subterfuge," Ashaolu said.
"We are, however, not surprised by the rantings of all the APC leaders particularly that of Tinubu, who has always been embittered by the rising political profile of the Senate President. He is always disturbed and frustrated at the mere mention of the name, Saraki.
"Also of note was the inability of the factional governorship candidate of the party, Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq to make any convincing statement at the rally. He was blank, inexpressive and could not articulate any practicable policy direction or clear-cut programme or solutions to the challenges facing Kwara.
"Abdulrahman's drab speech at the rally clearly revealed his emptiness and lack of understanding of real issues facing Kwara. He certainly cannot provide the needed leadership to drive growth, economic development and prosperity for Kwarans.
"The APC and its leaders should note that no amount of propaganda and subterfuge can detract the love and support of good people of Kwara for Dr Bukola Saraki and the PDP.
"Kwarans are ready to deliver their votes for all candidates of our party in the coming elections. They have seen through the propaganda and deceptions of the APC and cannot be beguiled to voting the party. Kwara is PDP and PDP is Kwara," he added.
Similarly, Saraki in an earlier state.ant has described the APC rally and alleged attacks against him as an expression of the frustration within the ruling party.

El Amparo de Apure es una localidad venezolana ubicada al occidente del estado Apure. Se encuentra en la frontera con Colombia, a orillas del río Arauca. Es también una población satélite de la ciudad de Guasdualito, el segundo centro urbano más importante del estado y capital del municipio Páez en el Distrito del Alto Apure, jurisdicción a la cual pertenece el pueblo. Guasdualito y El Amparo tienden a conurbarse y fusionarse en una misma unidad demográfica debido a su cercanía.

El Amparo es un importante punto fronterizo entre Venezuela y Colombia por su intercambio comercial con la ciudad de Arauca, principalmente a través del Puente Internacional José Antonio Páez.

Geografía

El Amparo mantiene un altitud del terreno principalmente bajo con una media de 125 , siguiendo la tendencia del resto del estado, las llanuras y sabanas son características de la zona.

Entre los ríos de la zona destacan el río Arauca y el río Sarare, que son los que marcan parte de las fronteras naturales de la localidad. Ocasionalmente suelen ocurrir inundaciones (algunas más graves que otras) durantes la épocas de lluvia debido a la escasas pendientes de los cauces de los ríos.

Política

El Amparo es administrado políticamente por el Distrito del Alto Apure, del cual Guasdualito es la capital; este pueblo también cuenta con un consulado colombiano. En El Amparo existe un grave problema de contrabando, al igual que en otras ciudades fronterizas con Colombia, y hay problemas con distintos grupos guerrilleros.

Diego del Gastor (né Diego Amaya Flores à Arriate le  et mort à Morón de la Frontera le ) est un guitariste de flamenco gitan.

Trajectoire artistique

Son surnom provient de El Gastor, bourgade andalouse dans laquelle il passa son enfance. Formé par son frère, il étudia pendant trois ans le solfège puis continua en autodidacte, influencé par le jeu de guitaristes tels que Ramón Montoya, Pepe Naranjo ou Niño Ricardo, selon ses propres mots.

Installé à Morón de la Frontera, la proximité de la base aérienne hispano-américaine de Morón le fit entrer en contact avec des amateurs de flamenco américains, auxquels il donna des cours de guitare.

Grand improvisateur à la guitare, il était très apprécié des cantaores qu'il a accompagnés, tels que Joselero de Morón, Fernandillo de Morón, Manolito de María, Juan Talega, Perrate de Utrera, les sœurs Bernarda et Fernanda de Utrera, les frères Curro Mairena et Antonio Mairena, Rosalía de Triana et José Menese.

Selon le flamencologue Donn E. Pohren, Diego del Gastor constitue le représentant majeur du style de guitare flamenca de Morón de la Frontera.

Héritage
Depuis 1992, le Festival de flamenco Diego del Gastor se tient chaque année à El Gastor.

For the opening of the exhibition Turner versus Martin at the Laing Art Gallery, AV Festival 10 brings together two great forces in contemporary culture, the graphic novelist Alan Moore (V for Vendetta, Watchmen), and musician Stephen O'Malley (Sunn O))), KTL, Gravetemple). Alan Moore will write and perform a new text responding to the energy of the two paintings: John Martin's infamous The Destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah (1852) and a key painting by JMW Turner from the Tate Collection. Stephen O'Malley will create a new ambient soundscape, sonically melting in the radiance of the paintings.

Tried and convicted of Grand Larceny at the Leicester Assizes on 18th March 1790, sentenced to 7 years transportation, sent to the prison Hulk 'Censor', moored at Woolwich prior to transportation.
Left Torbay on 30th May 1791.
Ship:- the 'Royal Admiral' sailed with 299 male and 49 female convicts on board of which 10 males and 2 female convicts died during the voyage and 1 male convict was reported to have escaped.
Arrived on 7th October 1792.
1797 Daniel had finished serving his sentence. He had been convicted at Leicester to transportation for 7 years on 18th March
Daniel appears to have become quite a well known inhabitant of Sydney town and the Sydney Gazette (which began publication in 1803) has numerous references.
Daniel was advertising that he was the executor to the will of Mr George Wells of Hawkesbury (dec) in 1805, perhaps the first record of his association with the Hawkesbury district.
The 1805-1806 Muster records Daniel McKay as free by servitude, occupation gaoler, with 30 acres farmland lease at Sydney. Judith Quinland ('Experiment I' 1804) was also recorded with two female natural children, lives with Daniel McKay as concubine, with condition described as EC (Emancipated Convict?). The farm of 30 acres has his 'wife', 2 children , five convicts and two free men employed, with a note of Purchase of Wells Richmond Hill.
The convicts appear to be William Williams, prisoner indented to Daniel McKay, John Fisher, prisoner from the Royal Admiral, William Thoburn, prisoner, Ticket of Leave, William Wright, condition not recorded, as well as Owen O'Burn als Osburn prisoner, ticket of leave with an alias on the second line of Joseph Wright FBS. The two free men employed appear to be William Caswell, emancipated convict rents 6 acres McKay's Hawkesbury, with one convict, and Charles King, FBS
In July 1807 he was offering a reward for the return of a cedar log with a conspicuous knot lost from the Hospital Wharf. Loss of timber must have been a problem as he published a warning to persons taking wood from his premises. It would appear that the cedar had come from the Hawkesbury, as he advertises the sale of a steel mill and boat from 'the farm of Daniel Mackay at Richmond Hill' in October. In February 1809 he advertises the sale of cedar planks at his house near the Hospital Wharf. Later that month he is granted a wine and spirit licence.
There were two mighty floods in 1809. The first, in May, peaked at 48 feet at Windsor, the second, in August reached 47 feet, the third highest on record. Two massive floods in one year was beyond the anticipation and experience of the settlers and many who had survived earlier ordeals were now in dire straits.
In August 1809 Daniel advertises for the return of a lost boat 19'6" in length, swept away in a flood from the 'Farm of Daniel McKay at Richmond Hill'.
The Sydney Gazette records that Daniel Kelly had absconded from McKay's farm.
It was around this time that Daniel ran foul of Samuel Terry. Terry had at least one Hawkesbury farm by 1809 as well as a hotel in Sydney. At this home away from home for Hawkesbury settlers, the guests ran up grog bills they could not pay. Their fuddled signatures of Terry's blank warrants of attorney allowed mine hosts to seize their farms. Daniel had prospered and bought an inn, which he transferred to Samuel Terry in 1810, and turned Richmond farmer.
He was pursued by creditors throughout 1811, with numerous references to auctions in the Sydney Gazette. In 1813 he was gaoled for debt.
The 1814 Muster does not record many details - Daniel McKay status free, landholder and Judith Quinlan, status free with 4 children (Mary, Elizabeth, Judith and John?).
Returning to Richmond, Daniel swore that Terry had done him wrong and clung to the dregs of his respectability by subscribing to the Waterloo fund in Daniel Daniel died on 3 January 1819, recorded age 50 years, free.
After Daniel's death Judith lived with William Bannister, a convict sentenced to 14 years and arrived on the 'Indian' in 1810.
The 1822 Muster records Judith as being employed by William Bannister at Windsor, she had a Conditional Pardon and was living with four children, all born in the colony.
By the 1828 Census Judith had taken Bannister's name and the family was living on Bannister's farm at Richmond. William was listed age 63, as free by servitude, a protestant, farmer with 40 acres cultivated. Judith was also listed at a protestant, age 45, with a conditional pardon. The children listed (all born in the colony) were Mary Bannister, age 9, Nancy Bannister age 6, Louisa McKay, age 18, and Hugh McKay, age 13. There were two 'Government Servants' also at the farm - Abraham Isaac aged 20 (Florentia 1827 14 years) and James Steward aged 24 (Ann & Amelia 1825 7 years.)

Each of my paintings is one-of-a-kind. If you like my work but don't see the right color, size, or composition, or if the painting you wanted has already been snatched up by another customer, I'd be happy to discuss a commissioned piece. Turnaround is 2-6 weeks.
Tell me about the space you have in mind for your painting, colors you are drawn to, the sizes you are considering, and even a bit about you. Paintings can be inspired by your favorite landscape, another painting of mine, or even a song. Let's get talking and figure out the details.
Hey, thanks! You'll hear back from me A.S.A.P.


After a considerable hiatus while I finished the PhD and life in Scotland, spent time resting and recovering in Adelaide with family, and accepted a call and moved to Canberra, Midweek Musings are back!
Each week I will share some of my wonderings, questions I am encountering, reflections I am crafting on the biblical stories. In fact, you will get a fair bit of the latter, either as musings, or separate posts, as in this new season and new ministry placement, I will be preaching and / or curating gathered worship most Sundays.
I will share with you the joys and struggles of finding a home in another new city, and it will be interesting to see what themes recur from the musings during my Scottish Sojourn. And I will introduce you to my new community of faith at Canberra Central.

Wow, that is quite convicting.
For more information check out his workbook and DVD.
Good post on some excellent material.
I've just finished leading a small group through Gospel in Life and it is as you say convicting and challenging and throughout this experience I was continually reminded of (and surprised by) the influence of "Performance" and "Competition" in my life. They are powerful mindsets.
During this work I posted a reflective piece to my blog thinking about the power and subtlety of idolatry called "The Throne in the Basement". Why not check it out?

According to the brochure we found in our Yellowstone Lake Hotel room, plastic water bottles were banned in the park. Water filling stations were available. Reusable water bottles were sold throughout the park and strongly encouraged. People could bring plastic water bottles in from outside, and large bottles of water were available for sale.
Fantastic! Free water! An effort to keep the park, which is in danger of being loved to death, free of plastic trash!
So … why were cases of single-use water bottles stacked in the corner of the park grocery store?
Just before I visited, the National Park Service had ended their program allowing parks to ban the sale of single use plastic water bottles. Not because the program hadn't been a success. The park struggles with handling waste, which all has to be trucked out at taxpayers' expense. Recycling is a pain. Waste had been reduced by a third. Park employees were jubilant.
The National Park Service is run by the Department of the Interior. The ban was revoked less than a month after David Bernhardt was installed as as deputy interior secretary. Bernhardt led President Trump's transition team for the Interior Department, and the firm he worked for represented Nestlé Waters, a big water seller.
Nestlé denies they did anything to influence the National Park Service decision.
When the idea was first floated, bottled water companies invested in a public relations campaign to fight it. $2.5 million was donated to the National Park Foundation by 2007, by Coca Cola alone.
Nevertheless, in 2011 National Park Service Director Jon Jarvis announced that parks would be allowed to ban plastic water bottles.
Jarvis reversed course and announced that bottled water would not be banned in the national parks.
There was public outcry and much publicity in favor of a ban.
Jarvis reversed course again and allowed the national parks to proceed.
23 of the 417 parks adopted bans, began to educate the public and install water filling stations.
Between 2011 and 2015, the International Bottled Water Association spent over $550,000 lobbying congress to reverse the ban.
In July, 2015, Rep. Keith Rothfus (R., PA) introduced an amendment, passed by a voice vote, preventing the National Park Service from using taxpayer funds to implement its 2011 policy aimed to reduce and recycle plastic bottles in national parks.
The National Park Service conducted a study to determine how effective the program was. It showed 112,000 pounds of plastic saved, a reduction of up to 140 metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions, and between 276 cubic yards and 419 cubic fewer yards taken up of landfill space.
That report wasn't released to the public. It took a Freedom of Information Act request after that ban was reversed before the report saw the light of day. Water sellers claim the study was improperly conducted.
Yes you can buy plastic water bottles in the national parks. Don't. Bring your own bottle. Take advantage of the free filling stations.
Every bit of plastic we've ever constructed is with us still, much of it in landfills and the ocean. This is a tiny, simple way to fight back. Save fossil fuels for things we really need.
Thanks for all the research, Julie. I shared on FB.
Considering the president just terminated the remaining 10 members of the president's advisory council on HIV/AIDS, I'm not surprised. These are just more of the kinds of things that make me want to bang my head against the wall. To take so many steps backward on public health and environmental protection is heartbreaking.
And so we blog. The firing of the advisory council on HIV/AIDS was hard to read about.
All of this brought to us by the "stable genius" in the White House. I had read about the banning of plastic water bottles. Thought it was a great idea. I have carried my own bottle with me for years, refilling when I can.
Thank you, very informative. Plastics are huge threat to the planet. It is so hard to get away from their use, but refilling reuseable containers is something everyone can do.
Wow! This is all very sobering!
You're right. Very serious. Might need some jokes in this blog. Got one?
🙂 Am afraid jokes are not my forte!
It´s a shame. Nestlé is doing horrible things all over the planet. Last thing I heard was that they make water prohibitively expensive in South Africa. I use reusable water bottles since I was a kid, luckily it´s something very common here in Germany, where I live. I hope most visitors of the National Parks will continue to bring their own, it´s a great idea!
You Germans are awesome when it comes to environmental awareness! I bow at your feet. May Americans follow in German footsteps.
Wow! Thanks! 😊 There's still lots to do though, but I think every little thing helps and is a step into the right direction.

Biden and the Demonization of Anarchism
Eric Fleischmann | August 25th, 2020
This year, in response to nationwide protests against police brutality, President Donald Trump has repeatedly attempted to associate Black Lives Matter with anarchists and anarchism. He has tweeted such threatening posts as just the phrase "Anarchists, we see you!" with a video of a man dressed in black at one protest, and he has referred to protesters in Portland, Oregon as "anarchists who hate our Country" and called for Governor Kate Brown to "clear out, and in some cases arrest, the Anarchists & Agitators in Portland." It is certainly true that many anarchists—such as myself—have been involved in Black Lives Matter protests, but it is obvious that President Trump is not making an objective ideological observation but rather is attempting to use anarchist as a 'dirty word' intended to make protestors out to be terroristic criminals.
This is unsurprising coming from a right-wing, authoritarian, corporate capitalist (one might even succinctly say 'fascist') who obviously sees anarchism as the antithesis of his vision of the world, but this rhetoric is not confined to Trump and Trumpist Republicans. Recently, in a speech delivered in Wilmington, Delaware, Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden employed a similar tactic in the following statement: "I've said from the outset of the recent protests that there's no place for violence or destruction of property. Peaceful protesters should be protected, and arsonists and anarchists should be prosecuted, and local law enforcement can do that." Foregoing discussions around the conflation of violence with property damage, the truly disturbing element of this statement is the association of arson with anarchism and consequently the latter with violent criminality. As MSNBC's Chris Hayes tweets, "'anarchist' is not some free-floating category of criminal. It's perfectly legal to be an anarchist, as protected by the first amendment and it's a gross violation of the spirit of liberty to imply otherwise." And even a 2010 piece on the FBI website about terroristic violence motivated by "anarchist extremism" prefaces its content with the statement that "[a]narchism is a belief that society should have no government, laws, police, or any other authority. Having that belief is perfectly legal, and the majority of anarchists in the U.S. advocate change through non-violent, non-criminal means."
But both the public demonization and literal criminalization of anarchism—and far-left ideologies in general—is nothing new in American history. Consider the famous examples of both Red Scares in which the U.S. Government and American society at large instigated witch hunts against individuals and groups with leftist sympathies. The first of these (as well as its prelude), occurring in the early 20th century, certainly had strong elements of anti-communism—the 1917 Russian Revolution birthed conspiratorial fears of Bolshevik influence in the United States—but it had a particular emphasis on rooting out anarchism. This can be traced in no small part to the 1886 Haymarket Riot— a landmark event in labor history which culminated in the throwing of a bomb at Chicago police officers for which four anarchists were tried and hanged. And there was also of course the assassination of President William McKinley in 1901 by Polish-American* self-proclaimed anarchist Leon Czolgosz and about two decades later the infamous case of Italian anarchists Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, who were executed for alleged murder and armed robbery. But as HISTORY explains, "Czolgosz was only nominally connected to the American anarchist movement—certain groups had even suspected him of being a police spy" and "the trial of Sacco and Vanzetti was regarded by many as unlawfully sensational. Authorities had failed to come up with any evidence of the stolen money, and much of the other evidence against them was later discredited."
But these facts did little to dissuade draconian action against political dissent, such as state legislation in Kansas which made "it felony to display any flag, standard, or banner, of any color or design that is now or may hereafter be designated as the flag, standard, or banner of Bolshevism, anarchy, or radical socialism" and that in Massachusetts which decreed that "[n]o red or black flag, and no banner, ensign, or sign, having upon it any inscription opposed to organized government, or which is sacrilegious, or which may be derogatory to public morals" may be displayed at parades. On a federal level there was the Immigration Act of 1903 (also known as the Anarchist Exclusion Act) which allowed the U.S. government to exclude and deport immigrants associated with anarchism and radical labor movements. And furthermore, there was the Espionage Act of 1917 which, in one section, criminalized dissent (at the time) against American involvement in WW1. Famed anarchist Emma Goldman and IWW icon Eugene Debs were charged under this law, and this same legislation was used much more recently against such figures as Julian Assange and Edward Snowden. And this by no means exhausts the litany of legislation in that era targeted against anarchists (and leftists in general).
Furthermore, public opinions regarding anarchism in the early 20th century can be excellently illustrated in the cartoons of the time, which generally depict a devious-looking, often-foreign man labeled 'anarchist' or 'anarchism' with a bomb, knife, or another weapon about to strike at symbols of America or liberty or even civilization wholesale:
Thus, Joe Biden's statements regarding "arsonists and anarchists" and the call for the criminalization of anarchism are neither random nor new, but rather emergent from a historical bias against anarchist thought from late 19th and early 20th century America. As Colin Ward writes in Anarchism: A Very Short Introduction, this era has left, "the cartoonist's stereotype of the anarchist as the cloaked and bearded carrier of a spherical bomb with a smoking fuse, and this has consequently provided yet another obstacle to the serious discussion of anarchist approaches. Meanwhile, modern political terrorism on an indiscriminate scale is the monopoly of governments and is directed at civilian populations, or is the weapon we all associate with religious or nationalist separatism, both of them very far from the aspirations of anarchists."
This is not to say that anarchists have never committed acts of violence. Ward openly admits that the aforementioned anarchist stereotype emerged in part because "a century ago . . . a small minority of anarchists, like the subsequent minorities of a dozen other political movements, believed that the assassination of monarchs, princes, and presidents would hasten popular revolution." And the first Red Scare came into full swing in part because of the series of both attempted and successful bombings from April through June in 1919 carried out by followers of the Italian anarchist Luigi Galleani. And there were anarchists of that era and in the modern day who embrace forms of "illegalism," which Paul Z. Simons defines as "[t]he open embrace of criminality as an expression of anarchism, particularly individualist anarchism." This often takes the form of non-violent crime such as shoplifting, counterfeiting, and the sale of illegal substances, but it has historically also taken on violent forms such as with the Bonnot Gang who committed multiple armed robberies and murders in France and Belgium in the early 20th century. But in the late 20th century and early 21st century it is difficult to find substantial anarchist movements that are committed to genuine acts of violence. Exceptions might include anonymous fringe groups like the Greek anarchists Nihilist Faction, who committed multiple arsons and firebombings in the 90s and early 2000s such as the 1996 bombing of the IBM building in Athens. But even this attack apparently resulted in no deaths and no injuries. And furthermore, there are very few political ideologies that do not at least have some association—historical or otherwise—with violence. A prime example would be the very ideology that Biden himself represents: conventional liberalism (as opposed to its more radical variations).
Academic Internet personality Oliver Thorn explains how liberalism presents itself as both non-violent (and even non-ideological) when in reality basically any political ideology must determine "who are the acceptable targets of violence," and liberalism is just the same and furthermore defines itself by making exceptions to its publicly stated ideological principles. For example, despite their apparent love for freedom, the acceptable targets according to early liberal thinkers like John Stuart Mill and John Locke were "barbarians" and "savage races" to whom the civil liberties granted to white Europeans were not extended, and despite the liberal Founding Fathers of the United States preaching "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness" and that "all men are created equal," most of them owned black slaves and denied many rights to women. This hypocrisy continues in the present day with most 'liberal' countries denying and detaining immigrants deemed 'illegal' despite the outward preaching in favor of the freedom of both individuals and goods to move between countries. Thus, liberalism makes exceptions to its theoretical principles in practice in order to perpetuate violence towards 'others.' Liberalism also suffers from what is often referred to as the "paradox of sovereignty." In his book The Democracy Project, David Graeber explains it like this:
the police can use violence to, say, expel citizens from a public park because they are enforcing duly constituted laws. Laws gain their legitimacy from the Constitution. The Constitution gains its legitimacy from something called the "people." But how did "the people" actually grant this legitimacy to the Constitution? As the American and French revolutions make clear: basically, through acts of illegal violence. (Washington and Jefferson after all were clearly guilty of treason under the laws which they grew up.) So what gives the police the right to use force to suppress the very thing—a popular uprising—that granted them their right to use force to begin with?
So, despite his condemnation of violent ideological criminality, Biden's power and authority (as senator, vice-president, or potential president) are themselves originally derived from violent criminality—just very old violent criminality. And being any kind of statist ideology, liberalism demands a concentration of violence in the form of the state, which is famously understood by Max Weber in his essay Politics as Vocation as that body which holds the exclusive right to authorize, threaten, and use (particularly physical) violence against people within a given territory.
But even beyond the more historical or 'abstract' elements of violence in liberalism, Biden himself has been complicit in violence through the mechanisms of the state. Despite his recent claims to the contrary, Biden was a firm supporter of the Iraq War at its start and throughout its execution—a war that reportedly cost between 185,231 and 208,214 civilian casualties from violence and 288,000 casualties including combatants. And domestically, Biden's tough-on-crime policies and advocacy for the war on drugs have led to immense violence, theft, and loss (both human and financial) in the United States. As Brittany Hunter writes in an article for the Foundation for Economic Education,
[m]ass incarceration and mandatory minimum sentencing laws have destroyed innocent lives, torn apart families, and cost the American taxpayers $182 billion annually. The practice of civil asset forfeiture has allowed law enforcement to seize money and property from people who were neither charged with nor convicted of a crime. As a young US senator, Biden played a role in the creation and adoption of each of these policies.
So, once again, despite calling for the prosecution of anarchists as violent criminals, Biden himself has propagated—from a safe distance of course—immense destruction, it's just that his is within the confines of the law. This harkens to Ward's earlier point that it is not anarchists who are responsible for large-scale violence in the contemporary world but governments, or as Chris Matthew Sciabarra puts it: "It is quite ironic that skeptics will see anarchism as a ridiculous, idealistic, floating abstraction without realizing that the present-day situation is in essence, one of international anarchy among monopoly governments, which have considerably refined the practice of bomb-throwing beyond what any anarchist would have dreamed."
But the purpose of outlining the violence of liberalism here is not to attempt to justify any violence committed by anarchists but rather to further contrast anarchism with most other ideologies in its strong repudiation of violence. In an article for right-wing news site Daily Wire, Emily Zanotti reports that the Portland, Oregon branch of Democratic Socialists of America issued a statement saying in one part that: "We condemn this statement from Joe Biden in which he criminalizes a political ideology that is based on cooperation and mutual care." And that is an immensely important point: anarchism is a school (or rather schools) of thought based on working together as individuals and communities in the spirit of mutuality and care. Graeber and Noam Chomsky—perhaps the two most famous anarchist thinkers alive today—both present quick definitions of anarchism. Graeber, in his aforementioned book, writes that "[t]he easiest way to explain anarchism . . . is to say that it is a political movement that aims to bring about a genuinely free society—and that defines a 'free society' as one where humans only enter those kinds of relations with one another that would not have to be enforced by the constant threat of violence." And Chomsky says, in an interview with Harry Kreisler, that…
[t]he core of the anarchist tradition, as I understand it, is that power is always illegitimate, unless it proves itself to be legitimate. So the burden of proof is always on those who claim that some authoritarian hierarchic relation is legitimate. If they can't prove it, then it should be dismantled.
Both these definitions outline how anarchism should not be seen as the ideology of arsonists and looters who have no regard for safety and people's lives and livelihoods, but rather one based on a fundamental opposition to the violence and domination that pervades present society.
And if the reader takes nothing else away from this article, at least take this: you are far, far, FAR more likely to find a self-described anarchist at your city's local chapter of Food Not Bombs, working at your town's food banks and soup kitchens, organizing unions at crony corporations in your county, or organizing any number of ventures to improve your community than you are to find them out in the streets with a cartoon-ish bomb (or a very real Molotov cocktail) committing acts of violence against innocent people.

Covenhoven is a local artist recommended by fellow musician Kid Reverie.
Colorado is home to more than its fair share of great music. Perhaps no one knows this better than the musicians themselves. With that in mind, we asked one of our favorite Colorado artists which other local artists we should be checking out, and thus began the "One Band Leads to Another" musical scavenger hunt. It works like this: A band recommends a band, then that band recommends a band, and so forth. Follow the thread to discover new Colorado voices, enrich your local listening experience and find out where you can catch these bands performing live this month.
Kid Reverie self-describes like this: "Sounds like rock, reads like folk, and it can make you dance." What that means is that frontman Steve Varney — who was recently named one of the ten best guitarists in Denver — writes haunting, intimate musical stories that stand alone easily as starkly arranged folk songs. But Kid Reverie the band plays them as cathartic, loud, full-energy rock that just might leave you feeling a little lighter.
Catch Kid Reverie in concert on Friday, November 4, at Syntax Physic Opera, 554 South Broadway, with Anthony Ruptak, decker. and Red Light Cameras.

The eighth season of the popular TV series "Die Höhle der Löwen" is over. Find out how many deals have been made and who has invested the most money.

The eighth season of "Die Höhle der Löwen" (DHDL) came with a few surprises. On the one hand, because DHDL veteran Frank Thelen was no longer there, on the other hand, because the broadcasting time has shifted from Tuesdays at 8:15 p.m. to Mondays at 8:15 p.m.
New "Lion" with only one deal
As a replacement for Frank Thelen, VOX introduced the former Formula 1 racing driver and world champion Nico Rosberg. Rosberg took his armchair with great expectations and focuses on sustainability, as he reveals in an interview with Gruenderszene.de - and is therefore fully in line with the current trend in the startup scene. In the eighth season, however, he was only able to conclude a deal with a volume of just under 250,000 euros.

After the shit storm about the appearance of her and her lover Andrej Mangold (33) in this year's " Summer House of Stars ", nothing more was heard from the " Bachelor " candidate. Slowly but surely, the wave of hate that has rolled towards the couple because of the bullying allegations against ex-roommate Eva Benetatou (28) is ebbing away somewhat.

A number of beautiful historic cities and Brussels itself offer impressive architecture, lively nightlife, first-rate restaurants and numerous other attractions for visitors.
There were many exciting moments during our trip, but I think the greatest thrill came when we first saw the coast of North America, said Costes. He decided that three was their lucky number. They had survived three storms and at 3 a.m. French time, they saw land.
Together with Carsten Maschmeyer, Rosberg invested in the FAUSST system of the startup HYCONNECT in the seventh episode of the eighth season. With their total investment of 500,000 euros, the two investors now hold 17.5 percent of the shares in the company. HYCONNECT wants to ensure that more lightweight construction is used in the ship, automotive and aircraft industries and that fuel consumption is reduced - an investment in the spirit of Rosberg.
Ralf Dümmel invests the most
A total of 40 startups were given the opportunity to present their ideas during the eighth season. 25 of them finally got hold of a deal, with Ralf Dümmel claiming the lion's share with a total of twelve deals and an investment volume of over 1.5 million euros.

Regardless of whether shower foam, toilet brushes or reusable water faucets - all deals promised by Ralf Dümmel during the various programs were ultimately also concluded by the German entrepreneur.
In second place is Carsten Maschmeyer with an investment volume of around 1.4 million euros. Maschmeyer put a large part of it on the table for the Munich startup Presize. The DHDL veteran invested a total of 650,000 euros and received 15 percent of the company in return. The three founders Szeli, Tomov and Shafique presented a body scanner in the show that users can use to find out their exact body measurements via smartphone. According to the company, Presize is said to be 55 percent more accurate than the competition and has great savings potential, especially in e-commerce.
As can be seen from an online article by Gruenderszene.de, other investors even increased the investment amount to a total of two million euros after the broadcast. "According to him, the investments made by Plug & Play, the former Hermès managing director Christina Rosenberg and Chris Brenninkmeyer, offspring of the C&A owner family," wrote Gruenderszene.de.
Handball: Löwen want to extend with coach Schwalb
The two-time German handball champion Rhein-Neckar Löwen wants to extend the contract with coach Martin Schwalb. "We have always emphasized that Martin Schwalb is an absolute stroke of luck for the Rhein-Neckar Löwen. That is why we would be happy if he remained our head coach beyond the season," said managing director Jennifer Kettemann to Mannheimer Morgen.

Judith Williams invested less than announced
Judith Williams has been one of the faces at DHDL since 2014. In the eighth season, her investment volume was a total of 250,000 euros, although she originally wanted to invest a total of 750,000 euros, because two out of three deals ultimately came to nothing.
As in previous seasons, Judith Williams' focus was on cosmetic products. Williams paid 250,000 euros for 40 percent of the Berlin cosmetics startup Nui Cosmetic. The young company sells vegan cosmetic products made from natural materials. The products are now available both from the foundress Swantje van Uehm's online shop and from Douglas and Flaconi.
Nils Glagau increases investments in its second season
Nils Glagau impressed in its second season and spent 235,000 more than at its premiere. Glagau invested a total of 585,000 euros and thus acquired shares in four startups. Not a single deal broke.
Georg Kofler also kept all his promises and invested 450,000 euros in the Vytal company.
Dagmar Wöhrl spent the least amount of money in the eighth season with 200,000 euros and thus only finalized a deal. With this she secured a share of twelve percent in the startup Bruxane. The company from Marburg developed a splint to prevent teeth grinding. But Carsten Maschmeyer and Ralf Dümmel were also interested in Bruxane. In the end, each of the three lions received twelve percent of the shares in the startup for a sum of 200,000 euros. Finanzen.net editorial team

Eventually it has to stop doesn't it? He has to know how tired I am doesn't He? And yet the burdens pile higher and not just imcreasing in steps anymore, but coming in multiple in the same day. It isn't like this is new really. The burdens have become my normal, but just not this overwhelming.
Yet I don't dare ask why, because I know the answer. I was warned. I even wrote it down in October. "The day you step out in faith, put yourself out there, state your opinions, declare yourself for Christ...that day the enemy sets his sights on you with fervor." That's what I had done. I made a decision in August to step out in faith toward something I felt God calling me. Since that time the calling has become stronger and the attack has increased.
The temptation to throw up my hands is always present. I am completely aware of my own insecurities and weaknesses. I am perfectly aware of how impossible the call seems. I am aware of how difficult the journey will be for my family. I realize that the best thing to do seems to be to just try to forget about it....but I can't. The voice is getting louder. The beckoning within my soul is sometimes deafening. As much as I try to fight it, the more I find myself wanting it. Every time I find myself almost letting go, He sends confirmation and usually in a very big and undeniable way.
So I find myself standing on the edge of God's will and what seems realistic. I find myself torn between the dream of a call and the realism of the struggle. I know that choosing to deny the call is to deny a blessing....possibly my true God-given appointment. I hear the thunder, feel the rain, and see the lightning. I feel the doubt and fear start to creep inside. In the noise of the storm I can barely hear His voice saying, "If you want to follow and choose this path, don't be afraid of the battle . I will fight the battle for you. You must simply position yourself, stand still, and see what I will do." (2 Chronicles 20:17) And so I continue with renewed determination knowing that the God who calls me will make the way. . My only hope, my only peace, is that He is working in it all...I am broken and in the hands of the Potter. Even in the pain there is no better place to be.
Such a powerful Scripture, isn't it! And I see my one-word for last year. FOLLOW.
Lovely post. Full of heart.


UV giant Mahindra had given its smallest SUV, KUV100 a mild facelift last year in October. The car maker is planning to give a proper mid-life facelift to its micro SUV which will be released sometime this year. The 2018 Mahindra KUV100 facelift was spotted testing lately sporting styling changes to the outside. It is primarily expected to receive cosmetic updates, while mechanically, the SUV will remain unchanged. As for the Mahindra KUV100 facelift's price in India, it is likely to change upwards.
While the SUV is unlikely to undergo dimensional changes, it is set to receive prominent styling tweaks for a cleaner design. Going by the Mahindra KUV100 images of the test mule changes will be made to the front including revised air intakes and fog lamp enclosure. The grille too seemed to don larger chrome braces and redesigned headlamps. It is also expected to get new 15-inch alloys, reworked rear bumper and toned down creases.
There isn't much revealed on the revamps likely to be seen on the inside. Though, we do expect subtle styling changes and addition of couple of new features to enrich the cabin experience for the occupants. That said, features could be added in tandem with KUV100's arch rival Maruti Ignis and Vitara Brezza.
There will be no changes on the mechanical front. The Mahindra KUV100 specifications will remain unchanged with the same 1.2-litre mFalcom G80 petrol with 82bhp and 114Nm as well as 1.2-litre mFalcon D75 oil burner putting out 77bhp against 190Nm powering the line-up. These engines will be paired with a standard 5-speed manual unit along with an optional AMT gearbox. The 2WD drivetrain on the other hand is likely to be carried over from the current version.
Since there will be no changes to the engine set-up the Mahindra KUV100 facelift is expected to offer same mileage as its current version. That said, the updated KUV100 mileage for the petrol version will be18.23 km/l in petrol and 25.32 km/l for the diesel.
The braking set-up will remain unchanged, albeit there could be some additions to the current list of safety features which includes airbags, anti-lock-braking system, engine immobilizer, central locking, seat belts and a host of other bits.
The new Mahindra KUV100 facelift is expected to continue using the same set of engines as the existing model, hence there will be no change in terms of performance and handling.
What do we think about Mahindra KUV100 Facelift?
The new Mahindra KUV100 facelift is expected to get a cleaner design which could make it improve in terms of looks that have been criticised ever since its launch in 2016.
The new Mahindra KUV100 facelift will continue to face-off with other subcompact models such as Maruti Suzuki Ignis, Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza and the likes in the segment.

The built-in feature in Todoist for recurring tasks is quite simple. Just write "Clean catbox every week" and each time you mark the task as done, it will be added to your list for the next week.
It's not possible to move the task to another day if you're for example not at home to clean the catbox on the specified day. If you move it to another day the recurring function is gone.
There is a simple way with IFTTT to achieve this. You can add recurring tasks to a separate project and give those a label with a number. This number represents the amount of days to wait before the task has to be done again after it's finished (so for one week we use 7). Within Todoist it looks like a normal task and it's possible to move it to another day. When it's marked as done, IFTTT will create a new one for you in the future. Check this recipe.
This solution does have it's limitations. Recurring tasks can only be placed in one project without other labels and notes. I don't need those features on recurring tasks so for me this is a good solution.
