They are people who love our wonderful coastline – but are often disillusioned at the amount of litter left strewn across what is supposed to be a beauty spot.
But now community-spirited volunteers are going to do something about it – by taking part in a major clean-up of one of Norfolk's best beaches.
And as part of this newspaper's Big Coast Clean Up campaign, we are urging you to give hardy volunteers in Old Hunstanton a hand this weekend to keep our beaches looking spick and span.
SEA LIFE in Hunstanton has organised the event along Old Hunstanton beach on Sunday, June 17 to help tackle the large amount of plastic pollution and litter affecting our native marine wildlife.
As visitors to the area increase during the summer months, the amount of litter and debris left on the ground also rises – putting marine wildlife at risk.
The increasing amount of litter and plastic polluting our beaches threatens all marine animals, with wildlife often mistaking the rubbish and debris for food or getting tangled in plastic nets.
Adam Makinson, duty manager at SEA LIFE Hunstanton, said: "During our last beach clean we collected 15 bags of waste weighing a hefty 52kg.
"However, we are determined to make this our biggest beach clean ever and we hope to exceed the amount of rubbish we collected last time.
"The threat from plastic pollution to our marine wildlife is only getting worse, with an estimated 46,000 pieces of plastic per square mile of the ocean.
The beach clean will be held between 11am and midday on Old Hunstanton beach. Participants are encouraged to invite as many people as possible and are advised to bring their own gloves, sturdy shoes and litter pickers if possible.
To sign up, visit SEA LIFE Hunstanton's Facebook beach clean page.
SEA LIFE Hunstanton holds regular beach cleans throughout the year.

Q: PHP Menu - How To Recursively Delete Parent and Child I am working on a data driven menu system in PHP /MySQL. I can't figure out how to delete menu items without leaving some of them orphaned.
All top level menu items have a zero (0) parent id value indicating that they are top level. My gridview displays all menus, top level and sub menu items and it allows multiple selection for delete.
The problem is that if one of the items selected in the gridview for delete is a top level menu item, all sub menus under it will become orphaned.
What is the general logic I need to implement?

A: Simply delete the child items when you delete some item. If you only have a 2 levels of depth this shouldn't be too much of a problem. If you can have X levels, then you'll have to recursively delete every child element for every element you delete.

A: The below class will work with as many childs as you can create(infinit)... so considering your mysql tabel is structered as(id,parent,name), all you need is a function that gets all items from current level, loop through each item and call recursively the function again to get child items for current loop id, each time keeping the ids found in an array to delete later, below is the full code in which I accomplished it using a class, but it can be done with a global array and function also.
//full class below comprising of 2 methods(functions)
class menu_manager{

    //this is the function called with id, to initiate the recursive function below
    private function remove_menu_item($id){
        $ids_to_delete ="";
        //Zero global arrays for more than one call for this function get child menus id first in a an array
        $this->child_items_ids = array(0 => $id);
        $this->incrementby_one=0;
        //call recursive function with $id provided
        $this->get_array_of_child_ids($id);
        //then createw ids for mysql IN Statment, foreach will create - 1,10,25,65,32,45,
        foreach($this->child_items_ids as $k=>$v ) $ids_to_delete.=$v.",";
        //Then we wrap it in around "(" and ")" and remove last coma to provide - (1,10,25,65,32,45)
        $ids_to_delete="(".substr($ids_to_delete, 0, -1).")";
        //then we Delete all id in one query only
        $remove = $this->db->query("DELETE FROM menu WHERE id IN $ids_to_delete ");
        if(!$remove) return false;
        else return true;
    }

    /*this is the function that will be called as many times as a child is found,
this function is called inside of itself in the query loop*/

    private function get_array_of_child_ids($id){
        $query = $this->db->query("SELECT id,label,parent FROM menu WHERE parent='".$id."' ");
        if($query){
            if($query->num_rows > 0) { // if found any items
                while($list = $query->fetch_assoc()){ // we loop through each item
                    //increments array index by 1
                    $this->incrementby_one += 1;
                    //place current id in the array
                    $this->child_items_ids[$this->incrementby_one] = intval($list["id"]);
                    //and we call this function again for the current id
                    $this->get_array_of_child_ids($list["id"]);
                } // while closing
            } // second if closing
        }  //first if closing
    }   // recursive function closing
}   // class closing

//to call the class you need:
$delete_items = new menu_manager;
$delete_items->remove_menu_item($id); //$id is the id for the item to be removed

The Temptations of Trade: Britain, Spain, and the Struggle for Empire
Linda K. Salvucci
Linda K. Salvucci; The Temptations of Trade: Britain, Spain, and the Struggle for Empire. Hispanic American Historical Review 1 February 2018; 98 (1): 137–139. doi: https://doi.org/10.1215/00182168-4294636
In recent years, historians of the Atlantic world have emphasized the extent to which supposedly rival European empires and their subjects became entangled or intertwined in a variety of ways. Much of the newer work centers on the adjustments and, ultimately, momentous transformations following "the great war for the empire," as Lawrence Henry Gipson styled it. By contrast, Adrian Finucane focuses her attention on the earlier decades of the eighteenth century, more specifically on the activities of the South Sea Company's agents "on the ground" in the Americas. In so doing, she tells the compelling stories of individual actors who blurred many lines—personal, political, religious, commercial—across the British and Spanish empires as they angled to exploit the well-known asiento contract of 1713 to their own respective advantages. National interests sometimes were advanced by British traders and the Spaniards whom they dealt with...

There is certainly no way to dispute you assessment of trump, but even in her latest response, she failed to do the simplest thing, which would be to condemn the 911 attacks on America. That would have simply put an end to the discussion & any future attacks on her credibility on these matters.
Not going to happen. We know who they are and what they stand for. 2020 is going to be a good year.
If the left is outraged, it must be an appropriate tweet.

The context is from Ilhan's defense of CAIR, a supporter of terrorist groups.
With the democrat candidates & trump. I don't see anyway 2020 will be a good year. It's going to be another choice of worse or more worse. ...with the impossibility of telling which is which.
In 2016 most voters thought Clinton was the lesser of two evils, but evil won anyway.

How to Make Whipped Cream By Hand
Bon Appétit's senior food editor Alison Roman demonstrates how to make delicate, soft whipped cream the old fashioned way: by whisking it by hand.
Starring: Alison Roman
(upbeat music)
Now, you can do this in a Kitchen Aid.
You can use a hand held mixer, but I like doing it by hand.
Maybe I'm a glutton for punishment.
For this to work, you need two things.
You need really, really, really cold cream,
and you need a nice whisk.
It's nice to whip in a little bit
of yogurt or creme fraiche when you're doing whip cream,
so it's not just creamy, fatty.
It has like a little bit of acidity.
It's got balance.
It's nice.
Every person has their own style, how they hold the whisk.
If you'll see what I'm doing, I sort of
I'm just going around the bowl.
I'm not doing figure eight.
Sometimes I'll go back and forth.
Sometimes I'll go around like that.
Maybe I'll switch a hand!
People are like, that's impossible.
How long is it gonna take?
But, it really only takes about two minutes.
So, already see it's like, it's thick.
It's definitely getting there.
I also like doing it by hand instead of a machine
because you have more control.
You almost never over-beat your cream
if you're doing it like this way, and it's so fun.
Is that weird that I think this is really fun?
So, we're almost there.
I'd say this is like almost a soft peak.
My wrist gets tired.
I'm whipping cream by hand, my God!
So, I'm gonna stop here because my arm is exhausted.
I'm going to stop here
because it's actually exactly where I want it to be.
It's kind of a soft peak.
I'm not folding this into cakes, I'm not making mousse.
I want it to be really soft and pillowy
because it's gonna be a dollop on our shortcake.
And to think moments ago it was just regular old cream.

Ghost Ride the Wine: E-40 is our Greatest Sommelier
Will Hagle drinks E-40's booze so you don't have to.
By Will Hagle April 26, 2016
Will Hagle will lock you like a Sluricane.
When you type "Earl Stevens Selections" into Google, Chrome suggests finishing your query with "in Kansas City" or "in Arizona." The next two search suggestions are "Instagram" and "Facebook," in that order. Those four searches encompass the allure of the Northern Califoolyan wine company. It's only available in select areas of the nation, yet it's desired in hella other places.
The popularity of Earl Stevens Selections coincides with two things America is currently experiencing: a burgeoning wine renaissance and a crippling social media addiction.
The wine renaissance is not dissimilar to the craft beer craze that swept the nation a few years ago. It seems like everyone is drinking wine these days. Craft breweries are being bought up by Big Beer, but craft wineries are thriving.
The social media addiction is not dissimilar to the television craze that swept the nation a few decades back. It seems like everyone is on their phones these days. JFK won after the first televised debate; this election cycle Twitter wars are thriving.
E-40 has an excellent social media presence. To truly love the gram, following him is law. Almost every post is, in some form, an ad for one of his many beverages. The Earl Stevens wines, Sluricane, and E40 Beer all make frequent appearances, alongside the occasional Warriors propaganda.
Despite E-40's universal broadcasts, the company's supply is geographically limited. Fans living in areas not covered on the store locator map can only like and comment on posts with envy. It's the In-N-Out Effect—in which people who've never been near the West Coast crave the burgers—amplified by E-40's influence.
The appeal isn't just that the drinks are made and endorsed by E-40. It's that they're rarer than a polar bear willing to let you get close enough to gauge the temperature of its toenails. It's the same reason people whose entire conceptualization of Brooklyn comes from GIRLS are suddenly craving bagels and lox from Frankel's. There is a Forbes article with the headline "I Flew 2,500 Miles to Buy a Bottle of E-40's Slurricane."
Even in Los Angeles, however, procuring each of Earl Stevens' selections proved difficult. L.A. Liquor on Washington and La Brea only had the Moscato. The Glendale Bevmo had the Mangoscoto and the Slurricane, but were sold out of the Function Red Blend. So much for everybody having choices.
Over the course of a few months, I've been slowly tasting each of the E-40 beverages. The original plan was to sample each of the drinks on the same day and have my roommate, who's training to become a sommelier, give a detailed review. Due to the rare nature of E-40's drinks, things didn't work out as planned. Like E-40's vocal fanbase in the pockets of the country where Earl Stevens Selections doesn't reach, I can only guess what Yellowbird and Blue Lagoon Sluricane taste like. Here's the rest:
Sluricane
The drink is called Sluricane, but you can call it delicious. There's not much to say, because the most accurate review was written long ago: Sluricane is strong enough to start an engine.
The drink is a pre-mixed, New Orleans-style Hurricane in a bottle, transfused with a splash of that brisk Bay Area breeze. One sip might cause your eyes to close and your face to scrunch, but that just puts you in prime giggin position.
That's how my night ended after consuming one-half of the bottle's contents. It poured nice, one bottle emptying equally into two pint glasses. While that's the most convenient way to enjoy the drink, it's best served on a booty big enough to put a red cup on it.
Overall, Sluricane is tangy, tart, and so damn serious. Just be sure you have a bottle of 40 Water ready to replenish your body in the morning.
Sluricane's name comes from the hook on "Hurricane," from The Click's Game Related. But it tastes best with My Ghetto Report Card blasting in the background. The overwhelmingly sweet taste will transport you back to the days when your Friday nights were spent sucking down masked alcohol, stumbling through the party trying to locate either a booty or a monkey. My Ghetto Report Card has the hits, and Sluricane will put you in that mindset.
Pairs best with: My Ghetto Report Card
Earl Stevens Selections Mangoscato
Mangoscoto is a name only E-40 could have invented. The drink combines a mango flavoring with Moscato, the white sparkling wine made from Muscat grapes. Moscato has been a popular drink amongst rappers in recent years—the lighter fizziness a substitute for heavier types of Champagne.
Mangoscato, though, is as heavy as Earl Stevens himself. A bottle contains 18% alcohol, but you won't notice until it's consumed and you find yourself on the way to the function screaming "Alcoholism! Alcoholism! Alcoholism!"
A friend lucky enough to share the bottle with me, in town from Oakland, accurately described the taste as "peach Yoplait." Perfect excuse to pour this into a plastic white cup.
If you're planning on perkin off some top of the line wine, try Mangoscoto instead of Carlos Rossi. Drinking Mangoscato while listening to this will only make you feel better about yourself.
Pairs best with: "Carlos Rossi"
Earl Steven Selections Moscoto
I poured a glass of this, sniffed it, put on In A Major Way and sat down ready to write my review. I took two sips, poured the bottle down the sink, and questioned my entire existence.
It's all bad.
Pairs best with: "It's All Bad"


Afsana is currently on trial for the charge of 'kidnapping' her son and awaits verdict on the 11th February. If convicted, she could be deported and lose her son who was taken from her in October 2013 by the ex-husband (who was awarded legal custody in her absentia).
The petition below asks the British Government to make urgent representations to the Dubai Government in having all cases against Afsana dropped, overturning the current custody order obtained in her absence and returning her passport, allowing both mother and child to return to the UK.
Please join us in supporting Afsana, and raising awareness about her case. Her story is not uncommon, hundreds of women find themselves at the mercy of highly patriarchal, and conservative judicial systems abused by male counterparts.

Liv Fontaine hatched from a large and ornate Faberge egg somewhere in the later part of the 21st Century. The mysterious artist (who some call an eneggma) describes her unusual birth as her first memory and what subsequently inspired her pursuit of a career in the arts.
Fontaine showed exceptional talent at an early age. As a toddler critic's compared her performance- style to Sid Vicious and Rod Stewart. Unfortunately, the constant pressures of fame and expectation of production led her to become just another art victim. No stranger to controversy, at age 17 she was quoted as saying – 'Life here in Southampton is shite and the cruise ship pollution is fucking killing us, I am moving to France.' It is not known how long she spent living in France or if in fact she ever made it across the Channel, but her next public appearance in 2016, went down in performance art history. Dressed like a banana and now an anorexic, an alcoholic, a finance professional and a trained fire warden, Fontaine felt she had nothing left to lose. This performance can now no longer be described in print or online for legal reasons. This did, however, kickstart Fontaine's career again. Famous for being a self-saboteur only comparable to ex-royal Sarah Ferguson, she became the cautionary tale liberal art audiences were desperate for – the entertainment of a woman on the edge of a severe mental breakdown. An interesting story to tell other liberals over a Sunday night charcuterie complimented by fine wines from Austria. For them, she was the perfect victim.
Fast forward to 2017: audiences began to tire of Fontaine's vulgarity. The social trend was now to get married, have a child or a small dog, become vegan and stop drinking. In the middle of one particular explicit on-stage routine, a young, clean and active looking man shouted 'Get off the stage Bucket Fanny, no one wants to hear you screaming about knobbing every man on the crescent anymore' … This was a pinnacle moment in the career of Fontaine – who had to be forcefully removed from the venue which was the overpriced and satanic eatery 'Bills', she could be heard shouting for a prolonged period afterward – 'You fucking loved it when I was screaming about shaking babies, you clownfooted sanctimonious twat'. Once again, she found herself in the gutter with few friends and even fewer fans.
Fast forward to 2018: Fontaine had not been seen performing for some time. Rumors went round that she had retrained as a mechanic, developed a suspicious and crippling illness, fallen in love with a man not twice but thrice her age and developed an avid interest in reptiles. In part all of these rumors were true. The once celebrated performance artist had tired of being broke, a joke and a victim. Confused by the notion she herself had promoted throughout her career – that a performers body is public property, she faded into obscurity. Unconfirmed sightings in Southampton described the artist as introducing herself to strangers as Viv Insane, wearing a smart/causal 3-piece corduroy suit, speaking in a thick Welsh accent and behaving sexually inappropriately on the towns park and ride bus service. It's reported that during this time the artist was involved in an altercation with a snapping turtle not meant for captive breeding. This near-death experience was the wakeup call Fontaine needed, taking inspiration from come-back queen Craig David and the relaunch of the retro Cadburys snack: the 'Whispa' bar, Fontaine begun a journey of enlightened reinvention.
Fast forward to the present day: Fontaine is now a serious artist, with a serious hairstyle, serious clothes, and serious shoes. She's an artist who has serious conversations about serious subjects with serious people in serious contexts. She's an artist who can be now taken seriously.
Please note the author of this biography wishes to remain anonymous. They also wish for the reader to know that although they respect Liv Fontaine as a professional they actively dislike her on a personal level.

Resources
============

Resources are at the heart of the TBone framework. They provide the foundation for the application's communication with its consumers and facilitate its API. Resources are designed to implement a RESTful abstraction layer over HTTP and Websockets protocols and assist in the creation of your application's design and infrastructure.

Overview
-----------

Resources are class-based. A single resource class implements all the methods required to communicate with your API over HTTP or Websocket, using HTTP-like verbs such as ``GET`` and ``POST``. In addition it implements resource events which translate to application events sent over websockets to the consumer.

A ``Resource`` subclass must implement all the methods it expects to respond to.
The following table lists the HTTP verbs and their respective member methods:

+-------------+-------------------------------------------+
| HTTP Verb   | ``Resource`` subclass method to implement |
+=============+===========================================+
| GET         | ``list()``                                |

Sanic and AioHttp
-------------------

TBone includes two mixin classes to adapt your resources to the underlying web-server of your application.
Those are ``SanicResource`` and ``AioHttpResource`` .
Every resource class in your application must include one of those mixin classes, respective to your application's HTTP and Websockets infrastructure. These mixin classes implement the specifics pertaining to their respective libraries and leave the developer with the work on implementing the application's domain functionality.

If your application is based on ``Sanic`` your resources will be defined like so::

    class MyResource(SanicResource, Resource):
        ...

If your application is based on ``AioHttp`` your resources will be defined like so::

    class MyResource(AioHttpResource, Resource):
        ...

.. note::
    Adapting a resource class is done with mixins rather than with single inheritance. The reason is so developers can bind the correct resource adapter to a ``Resource`` derived class or classes that are derived from other base resources such as ``MongoResource`` .
    It obviously makes no sense to have resources mixed with both ``SanicResource`` and ``AioHttpResource`` in the same project.

Resource Options
------------------

Every resource has a ``ResourceOptions`` class associated with it, that provides the default options related to the resource.
Such options can be overriden using the ``Meta`` class within the resource class itself, like so::

    from tbone.resources import Resource

    class MyResource(Resource):
        class Meta:
            allowed_detail = ['get', 'post']  # In this example, only GET and POST methods are allowed

Resource options are essential to resources who wish to override built-in functionality such as:

    * Serialization
    * Authentication
    * Allowed methods

For a full list of resource options see the :doc:`API Reference </ref/resources>`

Formatters
-------------

Formatters are classes which help to convert Python ``dict`` objects to text (or binary), and back, using a certain transport protocol.
In TBone terminology, formatting turns an native Python object into another representation, such as JSON or XML. Parsing is turning JSON or XML into native Python object.

Formatters are used by resource objects to convert data into a format which can be wired over the net. When using the HTTP protocol, generally APIs expose data in a text-based format.
By default, TBone formats and parses objects to and from a JSON representation. However, developers can override this behavior by writing additional ``Formatter`` classes to suit their needs.

Authentication
---------------

TBone provides an authentication mechanism which is wired into the resource's flow. All requests made on a resource are routed through a central ``dispatch`` method. Before the request is executed an authentication mechanism is activated to determine if the request is allowed to be processed. Therefore, every resource has an ``Authentication`` object associated with it. This is done using the ``Meta`` class of the resource, like so::

    class BookResource(Resource):
        class Meta:
            authentication = Authentication()

By default, all resources are associated with a ``NoAuthentication`` class, which does not check for any authentication whatsoever. Developers need to subclass ``NoAuthentication`` to add their own authentication mechanism. Authentication classes implement a single method ``is_authenticated`` which has the request object passed. Normally, developers would use the request headers to check for authentication and return ``True`` or ``False`` based on the content of the request.

HATEOAS
-------
HATEOAS (Hypermedia as the Engine of Application State) is part of the REST specification.
TBone supports basic HATEOAS directives and allows for extending this support in resource subclasses.
By default, all TBone resources include a ``_links`` key in their serialized form, which contains a unique ``href`` to the resource itself, like so::

    {
        "first_name': 'Ron",
        "last_name': 'Burgundy",
        "_links" : {
            "self" : {
                "href" : "/api/person/1/"
            }
        }
    }

Disabling HATEOAS support is done per resource, by setting the ``hypermedia`` flag in the ``ResourceOptions`` class to ``False``, like so::

    class NoHypermediaPersonResource(Resource):
        class Meta:
            hypermedia = False
        ...

Adding additional links to the resource is done by overriding ``add_hypermedia`` on the resource subclass.

Nested Resources
------------------

Nested resources is a technique to extend a resource's endpoints beyond basic CRUD. Every resource automatically exposes the HTTP verbs (GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE) with their respective methods, adhereing to REST principles.
However, it is sometimes neccesary to extend a resource's functionality by implementing additional endpoints.
These can be described by two categories:
    1. Resources which expose nested resources classes
    2. Resources which expose additional unrest endpoints serving specific functionality.

Lets look at some examples::

    # model representing a user's blog comment. Internal
    class Comment(Model):
        user = StringField()
        content = StringField()

    # model representing a single blog post, includes a list of comments
    class Blog(Model):
        title = StringField()
        content = StringField()
        comments = ListField(ModelField(Comment))

    class CommentResource(ModelResource):
        class Meta:
            object_class = Comment

    class BlogResource(ModelResource):
        class Meta:
            object_class = Blog

        @classmethod
        def nested_routes(cls, base_url):
            return [
                Route(
                    path=base_url + '%s/comments/add/' % (cls.route_param('pk')),
                    handler=cls.add_comment,
                    methods=cls.route_methods(),
                    name='blog_add_comment')
            ]

        @classmethod
        async def add_comment(cls, request, **kwargs):

MongoDB Resources
-------------------

The ``MongoResource`` class provides out-of-the-box CRUD functionality over your MongoDB collections with as little as three lines of code, like so::

    from tbone.resources.mongo import MongoResource

    class BookResource(AioHttpResource, MongoResource):
        class Meta:
            object_class = Book

.. important::
    TBone is not aware of how you manage your application's global infrastructure. Therefore Resources and Models are not aware of your database's handle. Because of that, TBone makes the assumption that your global ``app`` object is attached to every ``request`` object, which both ``Sanic`` and ``AioHttp`` do by default. it also assumes that the database handler is assigned to the global ``app`` object, which you must handle yourself, like so::

        app.db = connect(...)

    See TBone `examples <https://github.com/475Cumulus/TBone/tree/develop/examples/>`_ for more details

CRUD
~~~~~~~~~~

The ``MongoResource`` class provides out-of-the-box CRUD operations on your data models. As mentioned in the :doc:`Persistency <db>` section, models are mapped to MongoDB collections.
This allows for HTTP verbs are to be mapped directly to a MongoDB collection's core functionality.

The following table lists the way HTTP verbs are mapped to MongoDB collections

+-------------+---------------------------+
| HTTP Verb   | MongoDB Collection method |
+=============+===========================+
| GET         | ``find()`` ``find_one()`` |
+-------------+---------------------------+
| POST        | ``insert()``              |
+-------------+---------------------------+
| PUT         | ``save()``                |
+-------------+---------------------------+
| PATCH       | ``find_and_modify()``     |
+-------------+---------------------------+
| DELETE      | ``delete()``              |
+-------------+---------------------------+

Filtering
~~~~~~~~~~~

The ``MongoResource`` provides a mapping mechanism between url parameters and MongoDB query parameters.
Therefore, the url::

    /api/v1/movies/?genre=drama

Will be mapped to::

    coll.find(query={"genre": "drama"})

Passing additional parameters to the url will add additional parameters to the query.

In addition, it is possible to also add the query operator to the urls parameters.
Operators are added to the url parameters using a double underscore ``__`` like so::

    /api/v1/movies/?rating__gt=4

Which will be mapped to::

    coll.find(query={{"rating": {"$gt": 4}})

Sorting
~~~~~~~~~~

Sorting works very similar to filtering, by passing url parameters which are mapped to the sort parameter like so::

    /api/v1/member/?order_by=age

Which will be mapped to::

    coll.find(sort={'age': 1})  # pymongo.ASCENDING

Placing the `-` sign befor ethe sorted field's name will sort the collection in decending order like so::

    /api/v1/member/?order_by=-age

Which will be mapped to::

    coll.find(sort={'age': -1})  # pymongo.DESCENDING

Full Text Search
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The ``MongoResource`` class provides an easy hook between url parameters and a full-text-search query.
However, full text search is not available on a collection by default. In order to utilize MongoDB's FTS functionality the proper indices must be configured within the collection. Please consult with the `MongoDB documentation <https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/core/index-text/>`_ on using text indices as well as TBone's documentation on defining indices as part of a ``Model`` .

FTS (full text search) is provided out-of-the-box on all ``MongoResource`` classes, provided the relevant indices are in place.
FTS can be used using query parameters like so::

    /api/books/?q=history

This will execute a FTS query on all fields that were indexed with the text index. FTS takes presedence over standard filters, which means that if the url parameters include both FTS and filters, FTS will be executed.

The default operator for accessing FTS is ``q``. However, this can overriden in the ``Meta`` class by overriding the option ``fts_operator`` like so::

    class BookResource(SanicResource, MongoResource):
        class Meta:
            object_class = Book
            fts_operator = 'fts'

This will result in a usage like so::

    /api/books/?fts=history

Hooking up to application's router
------------------------------------
Once a resource has been implemented, it needs to be hooked up to the application's router.
With any web application such as Sanic or AioHttp, adding handlers to the application involves matching a uri to a specific handler method. The ``Resource`` class implements two methods ``to_list`` and ``to_detail`` which create list handlers and detail handlers respectively, for the application router, like so::

    app.add_route('GET', '/books', BookResource.as_list())
    app.add_route('GET', '/books/{id}', BookResource.as_detail())

The syntax varies a little, depending on the web server used.

Sanic Example
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

::

    from sanic import Sanic
    from tbone.resources import Resource
    from tbone.resources.sanic import SanicResource

    class TestResource(SanicResource, Resource):
        async def list(self, **kwargs):
            return {
                'meta': {},
                'objects': [
                    {'text': 'hello world'}
                ]
            }

    app = Sanic()
    app.add_route(methods=['GET'], uri='/', handler=TestResource.as_list())

    if __name__ == "__main__":
        app.run(host="0.0.0.0", port=8000)

AioHttp Example
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

::

    from aiohttp import web
    from tbone.resources import Resource
    from tbone.resources.aiohttp import AioHttpResource

    class TestResource(AioHttpResource, Resource):
        async def list(self, **kwargs):
            return {
                'meta': {},
                'objects': [
                    {'text': 'hello world'}
                ]
            }

    app = web.Application()
    app.router.add_get('/', TestResource.as_list())

    if __name__ == "__main__":
        web.run_app(app, host='127.0.0.1', port=8000)

The examples above demonstrate how to manually add resources to the application router. This can become tedious when the app has multiple resources which expose list and detail endpoints as well as some nested resources.
An alternative way is to use a ``Router`` , described below.

Routers
----------

Routers are *optional* components which help to bind resources to the application's url router.  Whether you're using ``Sanic`` or ``AioHttp`` every application must have its url routes defined.

The fact that AioHttp uses a centralized system of defining routes, similar to ``Django``, while Sanic uses a de-centralized system of defining routes, in the form of decorators, bears no difference.

Resources are registered with routers. A router may have one or more resources registered with it. An application can have one or more routers defined.

.. note::
    For small applications a single router for all your resources may be good enough.
    Larger applications may want to use multiple routers in order to seperate the application's components, similar to the way a Django project may contain multiple apps.
    It is up to the developers to decide how many routes are needed in their projects.

A router may have an optional ``path`` variable which the router prepends to all resources.

Resources are registered with a router like so::

    class AccountResource(AioHttpResource, Resource):
        ...

    class PublicUserResource(AioHttpResource, Resource):
        ...

    router = Router(name='api/user')                    # api/user is the url prefix of all resources under this router
    router.register(AccountResource, 'account')         # the full url would be api/user/account/
    router.register(PublicUserResource, 'public_user')  # the full url would be api/user/public_user/

Once the router is created, the urls need to be added to the application's urls.

With ``AioHttp`` it looks like this::

    app = web.Application()
    .
    .
    .
    for route in router.urls():
        app.router.add_route(
            method=route.methods,
            path=route.path,
            handler=route.handler,
            name=route.name
        )

With ``Sanic`` it looks like this::

    app = Sanic()
    .
    .
    .
    for route in router.urls():
        app.add_route(
            methods=route.methods,
            uri=route.path,
            handler=route.handler
        )

DARK GENIUS OF DISSENT
The cutting edge in the world movement to isolate South Africa from international competition is an organization known as SAN-ROC (South African Non-Racial Olympic Committee). SAN-ROC has its offices in London, but its president and attacking genius is a Northwestern University professor named Dennis Brutus, a man who was very much in evidence at the Games. Wherever South Africa encounters difficulty in sports, the sharp-tongued Brutus can be found, as ubiquitous as he is confident. Lobbyist? "A fair enough term," he agrees.
At 51, slight and physically unimposing, Brutus has long wavy hair and eyes that burn; he has some of the qualities of an Old Testament prophet and, for the most part, no more tolerance. "Watch it! Watch it!" he snaps at those who dare offer facts he dislikes. Dennis Brutus does not suffer fools, unless they can provide SAN-ROC with space in the morning editions. But then, few have lived and endured a cause as this man has.
He grew up in South Africa as a "Cape Colored." He managed to obtain a missionary-school education, and then, from 1948 until 1961, worked what mischief he could against the apartheid government before finally being "banned"—classed as a non-person. Shortly thereafter he was arrested at an otherwise all-white South African Olympic Committee meeting "by two members of the secret police who actually came out of a cupboard in the wall." Brutus served time in six prisons, eventually finding his way to America. Today he lives in the Chicago suburbs, teaches African literature and creative writing and works at his own poetry.
SAN-ROC and Brutus first got South Africa bumped out of the Olympics, then Rhodesia. "Avery Brundage told me, 'The matter is closed because I say it is closed.' Well, at Munich we took him on and we licked him," Brutus says. "He was a broken man after that." Last Friday SAN-ROC achieved another substantial victory when South Africa was drummed out of FIBA, the international soccer federation. Brutus' campaigns against New Zealand, for competing promiscuously against South African teams, have produced fully expectable results. A score of nations quit Montreal, but all save Iraq and Guyana were a part of the African continent.
The inability of SAN-ROC to generate anything but everyday bloc support suggests that political protest against South Africa may have reached its limits. The same nations that will condemn South Africa (and Rhodesia) for obvious domestic injustices will not risk their athletes or the Olympics over an issue so blurred and emotional as finding a country like New Zealand guilty by association. Boycott New Zealand for consorting with South Africa? Why not the U.S., why not Britain, why not Canada, which just happened to be entertaining a South African cricket team in Toronto last week. Well, Brutus argues, New Zealand plays South Africa more; its government appears to tacitly approve. "It's an enormously complicated world," he says. "We can't fight all our battles at the same time." Perhaps, but many nations do not seem willing to accept proportional or expedient ethics, either. Moreover, the black African countries are themselves vulnerable to charges of abetting inhumane governments. New Zealand may be racially insensitive, but black Africa continues to offer support to the dreadful racist Big Daddy Amin, clown-despot of Uganda—presumably just because he is black. "Please," Brutus says in some distress, "let me abstain on that."
Brutus has always been an active sportsman, and he professes to want the Games free of political influence. "But it is the first article of the Olympic charter that discrimination cannot be permitted," he asserts. "Discrimination is the only issue."
Alas, each committed man's issue is the only one. The anti-New Zealand boycott floundered largely because another political dust-up, the Taiwan affair, wouldn't get off the front pages. In effect, every tawdry political distraction to international sport now enters through the door that Brutus and SAN-ROC first cracked open in the name of justice. In Montreal there was the very real concern that sport and its youthful athletic pawns were being damaged a great deal more than South Africa.
Dennis Brutus: "Discrimination is the only issue."


I began parenthood vowing there was no way I'd ever give my baby a dummy, I was positive that I would not budge on this fact. Until one night, about 3am when I gave my screaming four-week-old a dummy thermometer (I was sure she was sick) and then I heard it; silence.
I'm not sure why I didn't want to go there, I suppose I just hadn't seen any dummies that I was sure of. Natursutten organic dummies would have given me the assurance I needed. We have showed you these awesome little inventions before so we just had to let you know there are some new ones on the market. They come with a few extra guarantees that not many of the other available dummies have. For one thing the whole dummy is made from one piece of natural rubber so there are no bits that can come off and no little crevices for bacteria to hang out in.
Made from pure natural rubber from the tree Hevea Brasiliensi, the protein linked with latex allergies has been removed. They are also sustainable, free of artificial colours, hormone disturbing substances, chemical softeners, parabens, PVC and phthalates.
You can pick them up from Eco Child for $9.96 each, but it may be a good idea to grab a few. As they are a natural product they need to be replaced every month or so, the rubber will naturally start to change colour to let you know when it is time.

In 1956, in the year that Stephen A Bolton was born, on May 20th, the U.S. tested the first hydrogen bomb dropped from a plane over Bikini Atoll. Previously, hydrogen bombs had only been tested on the ground. The Atomic Age moved forward.
In 1968, he was merely 12 years old when on June 5th, Sen. Robert F. Kennedy was shot at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles by Sirhan after celebrating his win in the California presidential primary. He died the next day at Good Samaritan Hospital.
In 1974, at the age of 18 years old, Stephen was alive when on February 5th, Patty Hearst, age 19 - granddaughter of William Randolph Hearst and daughter of publisher of the San Francisco Examiner Randolph Hearst - was kidnapped by the Symbionese Liberation Army, a left wing terrorist group. She was found, alive, 19 months later.
In 1986, Stephen was 30 years old when on January 28th, the space shuttle Challenger exploded 73 seconds after launch. All seven crew members died. The cause of the explosion was later found to be a failed O-ring. The O-ring failure was due to the unusually cold conditions at Cape Canaveral.
In 1998, in the year of Stephen A Bolton's passing, on December 19th, the House of Representatives initiated impeachment charges against U.S. President Bill Clinton. He was subsequently acquitted of these charges by the Senate on February 12th.

Demi Moore: conquer aging with baby
(Agencies)
Demi Moore appears on the cover of the US magazine "Vanity Fair" while being pregnant for the first time. [Xinhua]
Hollywood actress Demi Moore has fuelled pregnancy rumours by splashing out on a cot at a charity auction.

Despite denying reports she is expecting a baby with her toy boy lover Ashton Kutcher, they bought a baby's bed and dresser at the Green Power Baby Shower auction in Santa Monica, which raised money for environmental causes.
Meanwhile, witnesses claim Demi looks around five or six months pregnant.
A source, who spotted the star in a Los Angeles cinema earlier this week, revealed to a newspaper: "She is definitely pregnant. She's about five or six months - I know, my wife just gave birth - I know what pregnant women look like! She sat there watching the movie, with her legs spread, hand rubbing her belly with Ashton's arm around her the whole time."
Though not married yet, Moore and Kutcher seem to be madly in love with each other. Demi is reportedly more worried about their age difference and the future.
10 years later, when she's 52 and Ashton's 37, her husband may start comparing her to women his own age - and younger - and she may not be able to stand the test of time.

all about chaz
Every family has their ups and downs and while some find a way to work around it; others tend to drift apart and move in different directions. Here is a look into their relationship. While it is tempting to say these radical fools get what they deserve, the fact is that the authorities in Seattle, and in Washington State, have allowed Antifa to take over a portion of a major American city, and run it according to the law of the street. "Racialized capitalism is built upon patriarchy, white supremacy, and classism.".

Intersec Saudi Arabia 2019 will be held in Jeddah.
Published: 11 April 2019 - 10:45 a.m.
Intersec Saudi Arabia 2019 will kick off proceedings on 14 April, with 111 exhibitors from 20 countries showcasing their products and services at the Jeddah mega-event.
In its third year, the three-day event at the Jeddah Centre for Forum and Events will run on 14-16 April, 2019.
The security, safety, and fire protection trade show aims to target the kingdom's vast market, which is estimated to grow at an annual compound growth rate of 7.7% over the next seven years.
The event is licenced by Messe Frankfurt Middle East, the organiser of Intersec in Dubai, the world's largest trade fair for security, safety, and fire protection.
According to report by consultancy firm 6WResearch, the total spend on Saudi's commercial security, information security, homeland security and policing, physical and perimeter protection, and fire safety markets was worth $8.5bn in 2018, a 5% increase over the previous year.
Companies set to appear at the show include Hikvision, described as the world's largest video surveillance provider by the event organised. The firm will be showcasing its latest suite of technologies, much of which is powered by artificial intelligence and machine learning.
Other exhibitors include Optex Europe Limited and Fiber Sensys, both of which recently joined forces to better serve Saudi Arabia and the regional market in deploying perimeter protection and intrusion detection systems.


As I sit by the beach sipping a Pina Colada in Belize, I apologize for my absence but not really as my wife and I celebrate our anniversary in a beautiful place. So I will keep this brief, warm and dry weather through Monday, then a upper trough will move down over CO on Tuesday and bring a chance for some precip. Latest models suggest mostly light Previn amounts for CO, with heaviest precip over southern CO. Foothills should see some snow above 6000 ft during the day on Tuesday into Tuesday night as snow level lowers to near 4000 ft. For amounts, should see somewhere around 2-5 inches locally, with not much accumulation below 6000 ft.
For the rest of the week, temps closer to average Wednesday through Friday with some mountain snow possible but dry elsewhere. Temps rise for the weekend under mostly sunny skies. Back this week with a more detailed forecast.
Now sitting in the pool sipping slushy rum drinks, but wondering what we come home to on Tuesday. Latest models now in good agreement on more snow for our foothills. Precip should start late morning with snow level 7000-8000 ft and precip will intensify through the afternoon and evening hours as snow level gradually lowers to near 4000-5000 ft by midnight. Snow will begin to taper off after midnight but some light snow could persist through Wednesday morning. Models suggest 6-12 inches will be possible from the Divide east into the foothills, then lesser amounts of 1-4 inches below 6000 ft farther east along the Urban Corridor. With recent warm temps roads should remain mostly wet during the day on Tuesday but may become snow and ice covered by Tuesday late afternoon and evening, so the late Tuesday commute could have some slick driving conditions, with conditions worsening Tuesday night ( as I return from Belize). Crews should have roads in decent shape Wednesday morning but still snow and ice covered roads so expec a slower commute.
Rest of the week looks mostl dry locally as temps warm nicely Friday into Sunday.

Hiss Golden Messenger (Photo by Elise Tyler)
MC Taylor and Hiss Golden Messenger return to DC for a performance at 9:30 Club on Thursday, Dec. 20, bringing along with them a deluxe box set, Devotion: Songs About Rivers and Spirits and Children.
The box set contains remastered editions of classic Hiss albums Bad Debt, Poor Moon, and Haw as well as Virgo Fool, a rarities compilation. The three studio albums — the second, third, and fifth respectively by Hiss Golden Messenger — capture the stripped down sound of a band truly finding its voice.
Listen to "Rock Holy," a rare track on Virgo Fool, by Hiss Golden Messenger on YouTube:
In a review for Line of Best Fit, Janne Oinonen admires the "luxurious" content of Devotion: Songs About Rivers and Spirits and Children.
"Clearly relishing the chance to bring his newly discovered songwriting prowess to full fruition with a band, the reference points take in murky, JJ Cale — and The Band-esque country-funk, soul-hued balladry, vintage singer-songwriterly introspection, American folk and roots music, classic '70s FM rock, gospel, and dub. Sometimes all at the same time: witness how the bruised and battered groove of 'Jesus Shot Me in the Head' — a majestic account of a dedicated waster's salvation and/or doom following celestial visions — dissolves into what sounds like a ghostly Appalachian string band raising from the swamp mist," Janne wrote.

Bromyard Road Methodist Church
Youth and Families
Our Work in the Community
Students and Young Adults
We welcome local students and young adults to join us for worship and other activities. We like to stay in touch with our young people as they move on to study in universities and colleges around the country. We have recently formed a new discussion group for students and young adults to explore questions about faith and current issues. For more information please contact Rev Katherine.
Eco Group and Fair Trade
The Eco Group aims to explore ways in which we can reflect God's purposes in caring for the natural world, and to express these aims in prayer, worship and practical action.
We are a Fair Trade church. We organise an annual service on an environmental theme and hold events such as our annual "Eco lunch" to support local environmental causes such as Worcestershire Wildlife Trust. We also produce notice board displays on various environmental issues and provide recycling facilities for the church.
We are members of the international Christian environmental group A Rocha and hope to be able to renew our Eco Congregation status in the future.
We encourage members to become part of a housegroup. We currently have two housegroups that meet weekly in people's homes, one on a Wednesday evening and one on a Friday evening. The groups meet for discussion and Bible study, to explore questions and experiences of our faith and to pray. We believe that being connected with one another during the week encourages discipleship and our commitment to Christ. There is often a global dimension to our discussions as we consider issues of justice and peace. If you are interested in joining a local housegroup please contact Rev Katherine Pickering (contact@bromyardroad.org.uk)
Lunchbunch provides a home-cooked Sunday lunch and friendship and takes place on the second Sunday of every month (except August), mainly for those who are living on their own. It is served in the main hall and runs from about 12-2pm
Monday Fellowship
This weekly group is open to women and men and meets on Mondays in the main hall from 2-4pm. The session starts with a short informal time of worship led by one of the group and then there is usually a talk given by an invited speaker. All sorts of interesting topics are covered, including hobbies, places of interest, local history, places visited on holidays. The session concludes with refreshments and a chance for a chat.
Men's breakfast is a meeting for men who come to church and those who don't. It's an opportunity to socialise and have a laugh. It takes place at the Toby carvery, (Bath Rd, Worcester WR5 3HW) at 9am on the first Saturday of the Month. Come along and enjoy a cooked breakfast and a chat.
Our local links
Feeding the Homeless
We have a church team that works with other churches in the city to help provide hot meals and sandwich meals for homeless and vulnerable adults on Saturday evenings. About once a month, our team provides and cooks the meals and takes them to the city centre in the food van to distribute to those in need.
Worcester Food Bank
We are committed to helping those in need in the City of Worcester. One way in which we do this is by helping with the Worcester Food bank, both by providing requested items, and also by volunteering.
MHA West Worcester Live at Home
This scheme is based at the church and is part of the Methodist charity MHA that seeks to eliminate isolation and loneliness among older people by connecting them in communities that care. We aim to provide a service at the church for elderly people in the local community regardless of whether they have a faith or not. Twice a week on Mondays and Thursdays, hot lunches are provided and once a month on the last Tuesday of the month, there is entertainment and afternoon tea, served in style.
There is also an exercise group and other activities as well as escorted shopping trips and outings. All this helps support our older members and helps them to meet and make lots of friends.
Volunteers often get just as much from the Scheme as the members do. They work really hard together as a team; cooking, driving, serving coffee, chatting and befriending. For more information on any of our activities, phone 01905 420805.
Amaudo
The church supports Amaudo through prayers and fund-raising. Amaudo was founded in 1989 in response to growing numbers of mentally ill people roaming the streets of south east Nigeria. A combination of negative cultural beliefs and a lack of information and resources mean that these most vulnerable people are often left with nowhere to go.
Amaudo provides residential and community-based services as well as challenging stigma and discrimination. It works with local communities to raise awareness of mental health issues and challenges the government to ensure basic human rights. Amaudo UK was established as a UK charity in 2000 to support the work of Amaudo Itumbauzo in Nigeria.
Amaudo Ntalakwu was established in 1993 for residents who are unable to be resettled because of learning disabilities, complex care requirements, or problems in
tracing families. It is a place where individuals' needs can be supported and life skills, training and education are continuously available. Our church is especially responsible for helping with running costs of this special small community.
Support for charities
We provide regular support and fund raising events for local, national and international charities, including Christian Aid, Action for Children and the Methodist Relief and Development charity All We Can. We support an annual shoe box appeal, providing gifts for people in poor communities in Eastern Europe

…you've invited someone who doesn't believe in Jesus to believe in Jesus. That's what pastors are for. If you don't do it in your daily life now, you're not going to be better at it when some seminary or denomination says you're ready to.
…you pray and worship when no one is listening.
…you can pray and worship without telling everyone you did.
…your knowledge of the Bible is as thorough as your questions about it. The questions shouldn't come from what you don't know; they should come from what you do know.
…you've given up the dream of getting rich. We print "In God We Trust" on the back of his leading competitor.
…you've given up the dream of being famous. There should be a pretty distinct difference between a sermon and a selfie.
…you've given up the dream of being attractive. If the dream comes true, you're likely to embarrass the ministry. If it doesn't come true, but you keep hoping, you're going to look ridiculous.
…you've realized your wedding vows are more important than your ordination vows.
…you could competently do ministry without a formal theological education. And once you don't need it – go get it.
…you can name the places that you're broken with no more shame than if you were describing what you like about a painting. Brokenness is something we need to accept about ourselves so that we can deal honestly with the problems it creates, rather than trying to hide it from everyone else until the problems become public.
…you have a stronger passion for releasing other people's gifts than releasing your own.
…God's call to ministry is louder than your desire to do ministry and other people's affirmation of your ministry.
That said, I don't know that I would have become a pastor 17 years ago if I was following my own list.
This is well stated. As for the last thing you said (not sure if you'd followed you're own list) I am grateful for God's willingness and faithfulness to transform even us who lead … I think I would have insisted that I met all qualifications but time and history have a way of forming a mirror where, if you will truly look, you intentions and agendas become obvious and undeniable. This is true within the ministry and without. The sad thing is that if you wait to long to look, others will have already seen and damage will be imminent. Great post … thank you.
. . . until you are ready to die. Bonhoeffer said, "When Christ calls, he bids us come and die." The good news is that beyond every death–and there will be many–is a resurrection, for our God is one who delights in raising the dead.
Much good wisdom here. Thank you.
We are a family of ministers for The Lord and what you state is true for each and every one who truly follows The Lord.

Many of us are called to respond to complex issues, such as systemic racism, environmental injustice, economic inequity and anti-immigration. "Nourishing the Soul of Justice" offers time and space to check in with ourselves and others about the use of our voices, energy, presence, and engagement during these challenging times.
Core principles and practices of Circles of Trust guide the retreat, including the belief that everyone has an inner teachers, an inner source of truth. Contemplative practices and a variety of resources offer support as we navigate the space between our current reality and what we know is possible.

Teen Sues Parents Over Abortion
A pregnant 16 year old Texas girl is suing her parents from allegedly attempting to force her to have an abortion. I wonder how often this kind of thing occurs. I'd bet often. Kudos to ABC for highlighting this story.
ABC News reports:
The Texas Center for Defense of Life filed a lawsuit on the teen's behalf on Sunday arguing that her parents "are violating her federal constitutional rights to carry her child to term by coercing her to have an abortion with both verbal and physical threats and harassment."
The teen, identified in the lawsuit only as R.E.K. since she is a minor, was "beside herself" when she called the center for help, her lawyer Stephen Casey told ABCNews.com. The group claims it has previously represented teens in similar situations and won their cases.
"These girls are in a bind, particularly in a situation where their parents are forcing them to do something they don't want to do," Casey said. "Regardless of the [situation], that's her parents and she should expect support from them in this situation, not resentment and anger."
When the pregnancy was confirmed, the teenager's father allegedly "became extremely angry, was insistent that R.E.K. was not having the baby, and that the decision was not up to her, according to the lawsuit. He stated he was going to take her to have an abortion and that the decision was his, end of story."
The teen claims that her parents have taken away her phone, pulled her out of school, forced her to get two jobs and taken away her car in an effort to "make her miserable so that she would give in to the coercion and have the abortion," the lawsuit said.
Casey said there is evidence of threats, including text messages from the girl's father. The lawsuit also claims the girl's mother suggested slipping her an "abortion pill."
The nine-week pregnant girl said that she and the baby's father wish to have the child and parent it.
This doesn't sound like a good situation so if you have a moment say a prayer for this family.
It's pretty amazing bravery from the 16 year old girl to stand up to her family to protect the life of her unborn child.
*subhead*Pressure.*subhead*
May God bless this girl. No greater love to lay down ones life for another.
There is hope in the world.
To have parents who act like monsters and still act is incredible.
Foxfier
Talk about a parenting failure… I could see taking her phone and car away, since she did go and engage in behavior that got her pregnant and all… but trying to force her to kill the kid?
Wrong country, dude.
I hope she can find a support system for her pregnancy and after the baby is born. So tragic that someone would view their own grandchild this way.
Sand Mama
Where are all the "pro-choice"-ers in this? Where is the outcry from feminists that someone is trying to take this woman's choices and personal autonomy away from her?
Insert crickets chirping…
I Pray for her and her babe, and I would not wish such an awful situation on anyone. But these kinds of stories are wonderful reasons to hope in the next generation. Having lived their whole lives with abortion as the law of the land, perhaps they do recognize the evil it wrecks.
God bless this woman!
Good Heavens!
How is this family going to be reconciled in the future? 'That's right, honey, grandma and grandpa wanted you dead'.
Goodolelady
She probably comes from a relatively affluent family which feels embarrassed regarding this pregnancy. Although I feel for the girls' 'right' to have the baby, perhaps she could consider Adoption because I dont think she will find raising a baby at her age a bed of roses. She and her boyfriend may be living in a fantasy world.

5 Questions: How to support your gay child
Posted on January 1, 2018 February 1, 2018 by Jamie Killian
We often encourage our children to be the best version of themselves and through that encouragement, many will find themselves at the crossroads of addressing their sexuality–both to themselves and their families. A 27-year-old friend of mine named Shawn — last name withheld for privacy — gave me some insight into how this experience was for him and how parents can best handle it when their own children come out.
How old were you when you came out to your parents? How did it go?
"My story was not a typical coming out that you see in movies or TV shows, nor is it like the ones that most gay men have. I was asked. I did not lie. And that was the end of it. There was no scorn, no bad feelings, no tears.
"It was a testament to how they felt about who I really am because the conversation was as mundane and anticlimactic as a conversation about the weather. It showed me that my being gay wasn't earth shattering for them. No characteristic of mine could detract their love they have for me."
Has anyone said anything to you during the process of coming out that really helped?
"My friend Kelly was my confidant during the weeks in which I first came out. When I uttered the words 'I'm gay' to Kelly, she smiled. She looked at me and said, 'I figured.' When I asked her why she figured that she replied, 'Well look at me. No wonder you never tried to get in my pants.'
"We both laughed, something I hadn't done in weeks up until that point. Then she dialed it back in and said, 'I became friends with you when we were 16. I became friends with YOU; whatever you are, whoever you are. That won't change.'"
What part of coming out made you anxious–did any of those things come to fruition?
"I worried the most about how my straight guy friends would take the news. One of which was one of my best friends, Zack. When I came out to him, it seemed like he was trying to talk me out of it or debate the point. We didn't talk for a while after that.
"After about a month, we had a conversation about everything. He apologized for his silence and told me that it shook him, but that he had been friends with the same person this whole time and that my being gay was not going to be an issue."
Do you think being gay and coming out during your younger dating years had an impact on the way your parents handled those first relationships? Did they feel protective or caution you against being out and proud?
"I have always been the independent one of my family. My parents hovered over my older brother when he was a kid, but after I was born, they relaxed a bit. When I did not-so-great things in high school, my parents took a loving yet hands-off approach on parenting me. There have been many things that they have cautioned me about, but relationships has always been my own department."
What should parents do during their day-to-day interactions with their kids to help foster an environment where these conversations can take place?
"Parents should always encourage and foster an environment in which there is openness and honesty. This can be difficult to do with a teenager. When I came out, the world was more tolerant than it was 20 or 30 years prior. Times change.
"I have met out-and-proud middle school and high school kids. This is something I wish I could have had when I was that age. Having an open dialogue with your kids when they are young will pay off years down the road when the conversations are heavier and the topics more emotional and more important."
