Interview with the owner and breeder of the nursery "Gently Born" Elena Trofimova
A poodle is a dandy, a poodle is a lord,
Poodle - he souls comfort
Poodle, right, so good ...
Even in the image of "Gavroche"!
Translation from German:
"Pudelnas" - wet as a poodle - "like a wet chicken"
"Pudelwohl" - blessed as a poodle - "in the quiet waters of the devil are found"
"Pudelnackt" - naked, like a poodle - "without porticos, but in a hat"
"Aufpudeln" - vydelitsya - "show off"
"A poodle is a dog, but equally an artificial flower created by loving and skillful hands, a flower in which everything is harmonious - from line to gesture, from coloring to habits ... The natural reaction of even an occasional person to contemplation of a well-groomed poodle is a joyful surprise. "(From the publications of L. Moskovkin)
After all, we all know the legendary Kuprin "White Poodle" or Goethe's cunning from "Faust." I also recall Stenbekov's "Journey with Charlie in Search of America", as well as the brave Artemon A. Tolstoy. And still, in our modern, there is a stunning story by Lyudmila Ulitskaya about dogs (and poodles, in particular), which were used on the fronts during the Second World War ... That's how multi-faceted this breed is, that the ministers of the muses were so supportive of it.
In my childhood, probably, many read and watched G. Malo's novel "Without a family". The hero of the book, a little boy, after going through a series of misadventures, found his family. All deprivations to the protagonist helped to demolish the circus poodle - a large white poodle Kapi, a faithful companion and assistant in his wanderings.
Also recalled funny character of American cinema ("Oh, who would say 3", 1993) - a mannered poodle Daphne. This big white babe was very concerned about the state of her manicure.
Elena Trofimova Today, I would like to offer you an interview with the owner of the nursery poodles standard and non-standard colors "Gently Born" - Elena Trofimova.
Elena, tell me how your first dog got into your house, and why the choice fell on a poodle? Why did this breed become special for you?
The first in my house was an oriental shepherd dog, then a risen schnauzer, and then the choice fell on a poodle and, of course, not by accident.
Poodle is a brilliant mind and intellect. This is always the most important thing that attracts a woman, as the largest and deepest phenomenon in nature. A very high degree of development of the mind and a very high speed of ingenuity and selfless forgetful reactions. There is no clever decorative dog today. Only at the poodle its roots are kept for centuries and intersect simultaneously in hunting and circus dogs. It is not by chance that the only circus dog as the limit of dreams and perfection is a poodle.
At the same time, the poodle is an absolute and absolute authority of a stylish hairdresser's dog. Ideal for the highest gross ambitions. (Grumer is a hairdresser for dogs.) Here is not a plowed field for fantasy and true talents.
It is especially pleasant that there is no other decorative breed, equal to a poodle, which would not shed just like schnauzers and terriers.
poodle Poodle is the only breed that exists in 6 official colors, and two more - harlequins and black and tan - recognized in many countries.
Poodle is the only breed that also exists in four growth formats.
And this all without exaggeration says that in any house there should be only a poodle, including its illustrious character, incendiary energy of optimism and unique elegance and art - elite aesthetics.
In 1986, the first silver dwarf poodle appeared LABINA GLEN, the winner of MGOLS, the tribal class "elite." She became the ancestor of all silvery and dwarf poodles of our kennel, having lived a long life of almost 15 years, and she started a professional hobby-breeding.
How did you come up with the idea of creating your own nursery? When did your kennel open? How was the name of the kennel chosen?
Elena TrofimovaWith the idea of creating our own nursery, we with Anna Vlasova, my relative, came in 1994. Already at that time she was fascinated by the Riesen, I also had rizen and two poodles. We decided to combine our efforts and finances for the benefit and prosperity of our favorite breeds.
The cattery was registered in 1994. "GENTLY BORN" in English translation - prestigious, generous. Our name has become the style of our work.
What is breeding for you in dog breeding, what parameters do you use to define this concept?
Passion for poodles over time has evolved into an enthusiastic, daily, painstaking work on creating the perfect poodle. Pedigree breeding in dog breeding is the obtaining of the desired type of animal that meets the requirements for health, psyche, temperament and exteriors of the dog. These are the main parameters that I pay attention to in breeding.
What blood have you imported and why?
Initially, there were 3 growth categories in the Poodle breed standard - large, small and dwarfish. In the 90s, a separate growth category of the toy poodle, the smallest, with a height of only 28 cm, was singled out.
At that time I had a dwarf poodle, a silvery bitch LABINA GLEN, the winner of MGOLS, the tribal class "elite." She became the ancestor of all silvery that and dwarf poodles of our kennel, having lived a long life of almost 15 years, and she began professional breeding , as well as a hobby for them.
We were the first to bring the high-class male of that poodle from the prestigious nursery in Holland.
We are the first and still the only ones who sent their bitch that poodle for breeding in America.
We were the first to buy very high quality, very small ones - poodles in America.
Before us was the task to obtain and consolidate the growth of that poodle, without losing the exterior data. Therefore, we brought from the best nurseries in Europe and America qualitative, genetically fixed in the growth of that poodle.
What do you consider your luck in breeding?
I consider it a great success to receive such poodles as Champions of Europe:
Gently Born Crusader, Gently Born Amur, Gently Born Gammy, Gently Born Chocolada Svit.
Junior European Champion Gently Born Safari, Winners of monobreed exhibitions Gently Born Amethyst and Gently Born Asty Mondoro.
poodlePlease tell us about working with colors. Do you have your own "color" preferences? For example, I like very bright apricots, and not whitish. Your opinion on this matter?
Our nursery, I think, is the only kennel in which there are all poodle colors: the first poodle was silver, it became the founder of all our silver. By chance, an American white tiny toy-poodle appeared in the house, having lived a short and bright show (exhibition) life, he left a significant mark in white, black and silver colors .. Always the first male in the house will remain in memory ) - apricot, beautiful and charming baby, left behind about two hundred puppies. Enchanted red color - bought in America a tribal pair of red poodles. In 2000, poodles of brown color practically disappeared in Moscow and we bought, on the recommendation of Switzerland, the most beautiful Superstar Shivaz, in America a small little girl Soignes Fancy Cappuccino and with her friends in Moscow Slavyanka Arabica for Gently Born. On their account, many exhibition victories. On them lined the breeding of brown color in our cattery. Chocolates have a thick, well-trimmed shiny coat, they look very good in the ring.
When our little white tocha - the champion from the imported dad superchempiona gave birth to a black boy, he so charmed everyone with both height and temperament that even the sale was not a question. Black night, black lacquer - he has a star show-way - Interchampion, multi-champion Gently Born Zen Apeldoorn Elite - beauty growing 24 cm! How can you not like black color!
Looking at pictures of foreign magazines, fell in love with poodles harlequin color! A long-term dream has become a reality - today they are brought from the leading nurseries of the colors of Germany and America! From their exclusive, unrepeatable beauty, the head is demolished, but this is a separate story ...
And what extraordinary beauty - black-tanned poodles, phantoms ?! Now the dream was not for long. Having developed color harlequin, acquired on the recommendation of good friends in Germany, a tribal pair of phantoms, and in them we fell in love immediately and unconditionally!
To your question I can answer this: "At the moment I do not care what color a poodle, most importantly, what would be its beauty pleased the eye and soul!"
And before any discrepancy of colors was considered a plectrum ...
Everything is correct, in the FCI standard on the poodle it is written "COLOR: single-colored wool: black, white, brown, gray, apricot and red." Any discrepancy is marriage, but the original color of the poodle was spotty, only then the breeders' works displayed homogeneous colors. In America, the party is a poodle, that is, spotted has always been in high esteem. The colors harlequin (white-black) and black and tan (black and tan) are accepted in Germany and in a number of other European countries.
In January 2008, RKF officially recognized two very interesting colors of the poodle - harlequin and black end tan. As a basis, the color provision in force in Germany has been adopted.
At the moment, breeding "non-standard" is a tribute to fashion or a qualitative breeding of various poodle colors?
In America they breed poodles of color of party colors, it's any color, in Europe - only two colors, unrecognized FCI, and breeding at a very high professional level. Poodles of these colors are quite competitively capable of monochrome poodles, which is indicated by their exhibition victories. The color scheme of the poodle was replenished with two more colors, more admirers of this remarkable breed appeared.
There is still a brindle color. Would not you like a little tiger cub? This color is adopted in Russia or only in Europe and America?
In America there is a brindle color, but there almost any color has its name - tiger, fawn, cloak, blue, etc. In Russia, only two colors are accepted for official breeding - the harlequin and the black and the ten.
What exhibition victory of your dogs did you remember especially?
A special pride is the silvery to-poodle Gently Born Hope, only 24 cm tall, who won the Best at the All-Russian exhibition in Moscow.
What is more important - luck in a poodle career or successful owners?
Undoubtedly - successful owners! And the most important thing is that our child is loved infinitely and cared for. If you still have a passion for exhibitions - it's absolutely fabulous!
As a breeder-practitioner, what would you like to wish the experts who choose the winners in the exhibition rings? What would you advise paying more attention to the expert if he asked your opinion as an experienced breeder of poodles?
I would like to wish the experts more objectivity, pay more attention to the dog, and not to the one who is on the other end of the leash.
How do you see the ideal dwarfish (small poodle, big, that)? Which dogs do you think are close to this ideal?
In my opinion, a poodle of any height is wool and movement! Beautiful movements and shiny thick wool speak about health - and this, by and large, is the most important thing.
Ideals for me do not exist, there is no limit to perfection and there is always something to work on.

St. Johns County high school zoning changes to be discussed at town hall meetings
Christen Kelley
The St. Johns County School District is hosting two town hall meetings to discuss potential attendance zoning changes for the new High School HHH in World Golf Village.
Construction will be starting soon on the county's first school built since 2008, slated to open for the 2021-2022 school year. High School HHH is located at 11200 St. Johns Parkway, at the intersection of St. Johns Parkway and International Golf Parkway.
A proposed zoning plan is being finalized and will be shared at the Town Hall meetings, along with an opportunity for public comment. The same information will be presented at both meetings. School Board members and district staff will be in attendance.
At this time, the proposal impacts the current attendance zones and students at Allen D. Nease High School, Bartram Trail High School, Creekside High School, Liberty Pines Academy, Mill Creek Academy, Pacetti Bay Middle School, and Switzerland Point Middle School.
The district will also be discussing possible attendance zone changes related to the SilverLeaf Development, as well as plans for future High School III. High School III is in the planning stages and expected to be constructed within 3-4 years. The future discussions of High School III could impact areas currently zoned for Allen D. Nease High School and Bartram Trail High School.
The two meetings will take place as follows:
Tuesday, February 25 at 6:30 p.m. at Allen D. Nease High School, located at 10550 Ray Road, Ponte Vedra, FL 32081
Thursday, February 27 at 6:30 p.m. at Bartram Trail High School, located at 7399 Longleaf Pine Parkway, St. Johns, FL 32259

Samsung has revealed that you'll soon be able to control its SmartThings smart home platform from both the Gear S3 and Gear Sport.
The smart home-related announcement was made during the Korean company's CES press conference, focusing on how connecting its smartwatch platform to the home was the next step in bringing together its entire ecosystem. Users will be afforded simple controls over SmartThings, such as being able to control smart devices like thermostats, lights and security sensors all from the wrist.
Samsung hasn't revealed the timeline for when we can expect the integration to land on its Gear watches, but did hint that it will come into effect at some point during the year.
And interestingly, despite offering a way for users to control the home from the touchscreen of their Gear watch, the app seemingly won't be compatible with the company's errant smart assistant Bixby, which is still yet to be confirmed for our wrists after several struggles across Samsung's wider range.
If Bixby (or any voice controls) are left out the party, this would undoubtedly place limitations on the app. After all, while navigating on your watch is great for quick use, having the option to speak to your watch is often far simpler for more extended interaction.
As for Samsung's ambition to link up its own ecosystem, we'd say this is a move which puts the company right on track. SmartThings already has the inherent advantage of being more of a co-ordinator of your home - instead of a the hub experience offered through Amazon or Google - and its standing will only improve once watch integration is available later this year.

My inspiration for this month's whimsy comes from one of the fluffiest and most adorable breeds of little pup, the Scottish Terrier.
I haven't been in a dog-owning household since we left our golden retrievers behind in America, when I was seven years old. They were bigger than me, and could bowl me over completely, but I don't think that bothered me at all.
Despite being more of a cat-lover, when it comes to my personal pet preference, I do love dogs too. And I have always liked Scotties. In fact, a very scribbly fluffy Scottie was the main character in a little comic strip I (very) briefly drew when I was about 11 years old.
Strangely, in all my brainstorms of possible whimsy themes, I hadn't considered Scottie dogs, but once the idea was in my brain, I couldn't make it fast enough. And I knew I had this ribbon, with the Black Watch tartan pattern, in my ribbon box, just waiting for an opportunity like this.
Mel's Maltese puppy doesn't seem to mind posing with a whimsy featuring a different dog, which just goes to show you that dogs have a less jealous temperament than cats. I'm sure cats would object to such scandalous ideas.
The felt dogs are cut out freehand, so they are all a bit different!
A nice addition to the year of whimsies collection, I think.
Are there any other animals that you think should grace the veil of a whimsy?
Ethical Millinery: Where Do Hats Fit In To Ethical Fashion?
Following on from my post about vintage fashion and ethical shopping, I want to explore how these ideas apply to millinery.
I will state up front that I am not setting myself up as an expert and that I am far from perfect in my own habits and choices. I often consider the ethical side of my making, but I do not always act on it in what I feel is the best way, and I think of myself as still exploring what ethical millinery means to me. This post is a way of sharing some of my current thoughts as I undertake that exploration.
Firstly, I think that there are some qualities of hats that make them inherently inclined towards having an ethical place in our wardrobe.
Once you are an adult, your head size remains more or less the same. Thus, a hat can be a lifetime fashion investment, reducing wasted buys. This also means that buying a really high quality handmade hat is a more manageable expense - you won't have to do it too often.
Whether you do this yourself or get a milliner to do it, there is an AWFUL lot that can be done with an old hat. Although the idea of making changes to a vintage hat might be sacrilegious to you, many can be re-blocked to their original shape and cleaned up to give them a longer lasting life, seriously repaired, or have the size changed a small amount without any damage to them.
A more modern hat you may have fewer qualms about, and then all sorts of things can be done. Felts and straws, in particular, can be reworked in minor or major ways pretty much ad infinitum. And they should be, in my opinion. A hat should never have to be binned. When it comes to embracing "make do and mend" hats are the ideal candidate, and if you want to do this yourself, many of the old millinery texts available (second hand, reprinted or scanned online) have sections on these arts. If this is beyond your interest, most milliners would be thrilled to be a part of a project to keep an old hat alive and kicking.
Although there are plenty of cheap mass-manufactured hats out there, they don't outnumber the handmade creations by the same vast majority that exists with clothing. Buying hats that are made by small local industry can therefore be easier for hats than for clothes. Even the hats you buy from department stores (at least here in Australia) are often made by Australian milliners, and there are many individuals and old traditional manufacturers still in operation.
There are also a number of things you can actively choose to do, to keep your hat adventures nice to people and the planet.
As with clothes, it is clear that buying vintage or second hand removes our supply chain worries and promotes the mindset in ourselves and in society that these items are not to be thrown away.
As mentioned above, milliners and hat makers are around and not hard to find. Their work is diverse and impressive, and you are bound to be able to find the styles you are looking for, or have hats custom made.
For everyday hats, think about the clothes you actually own and wear, and the activities you do. Think in winter about something warm and practical, and in summer something that will shield your face and eyes. But think beyond caps and beanies, and use hats as a way to add practical elegance to your wardrobe. Unless you have a very coordinated wardrobe or a strong signature colour, picking the most versatile hat colour can be hard, but for winter you can match it to your favourite coat (or gloves or scarf) to make sure it will get wear, and in summer natural straw is a neutral that goes with everything.
For occasion hats, you may not wear them too often, but make sure you will at least get to wear them once! Don't just randomly buy a pretty hat, select one or have a hat custom-made that matches a dress you can wear for evenings out to dinner or the theatre, or to weddings and other special events.
When buying new, consider where the material has come from. I'm not going to go into the issues with fur and leather, because, frankly, thinking about it makes me sick. But be aware that many felt hats are made of fur felt, and consider whether that is something you want to get behind. I still find feathers a tricky choice to navigate, but personally I am moving away from them.
I want to research the manufacture of other millinery materials further, but in general it is easier, if not necessarily the actual case, for plant-based materials like straw and sinamay, as well as wool and fabrics to be sourced in an ethical way. Consider looking for milliners who are working with reclaimed or recycled materials as well.
Store them carefully, keep them clean and in shape. There are many ways to do this, and your choices will depend on how often you wear them and the space you have. Find a way that suits your lifestyle, and take into account protection from sunlight, insects, dust and physical damage.
Although a hat might fit for life, it won't necessarily suit your tastes and lifestyle for life.
Vintage hats can be resold, donated or given to friends. Hats can be reworked to suit your current needs better (as mentioned above). Hats can be donated to friendly milliners who like to recycle, or your local charity shop.
I'd love to hear your thoughts on this one! Do you find that you keep hats longer than clothes? Have you tried your hand at mending or re-working a hat?
Today is going to be a picture-heavy post focusing on some hats I've been making and finally taking photos of recently.
This was the first version of this style of turban, and it turned out a bit small for me, and also for my model, but you get the idea!
This one is made from thermofelt, which I've talked about before. It has the benefit of the bounce-back qualities of that material, but being thinner, it has a less full and lush feel, I think.
Away from specifically vintage styles, I still think this winter felt hat with faux fur trim has a vintage feel to it. Maybe it's just the way it softly frames the face.
Jasmine just managed to turn up in coats that matched the colours of the hats I brought to the photoshoot!
I shared another hat made from this same vintage hat block earlier, but I played with faux fur trim on this one for a different look.
My favourite thing about it is how it looks like completely fur from one side, and almost all felt from the other side.
I think I will be continuing to experiment with this block. I think I still haven't worked it out to my satisfaction.
This purple fur beret is also from a block you've seen before, and, again, I'm still working it out. It is a little large and I need to work out how to make that still work for me. Still, I love the colour of this one. I love bright purple in winter outfits.
What is your favourite colour and style of hat for winter? Leave me a comment and let me know! I love finding out what people like to wear.
To see sneak peeks of my new hats as I'm making and photographing them, as well as other behind-the-scenes info and useful hat-related links, sign up to the newsletter.
Four years ago, I read Lucy Siegle's "To Die For: Is Fashion Wearing Out The World" and my exploration of ethical fashion began. I haven't talked much about this on my blog, although you may have gotten a sense of my passion for recycling materials through my hat makeovers and use of old clothing for fabric.
Recently I re-read "To Die For", and then watched the documentary "The True Cost", and I have strengthened my resolve to change the way I relate to my clothes.
I'm not going to argue the importance of ethical fashion. That would be beyond the scope of my entire blog, let alone one post. If you need convincing, read To Die For (or I believe "Overdressed" by Elizabeth L. Cline is a very similar book with an American viewpoint), or watch "The True Cost."
What I am going to talk about are some specific thoughts I had about how vintage fashion fits in.
Having an ethical approach to your wardrobe comes down to how you shop, how you look after your clothes, and how you dispose of them. Wearing genuine vintage clothing and being a part of the vintage fashion scene doesn't automatically convert you into an ethical fashion hero, but it can provide you with skills that allow and even encourage you in ethical fashion habits.
This is the obvious one, and the only one really discussed in the ethical fashion literature. Buying vintage means you aren't supporting the fast fashion machine. But it also gets you into the habit of looking beyond the shopping centre for your clothing purchases. You turn to vintage shops, online and in person, but also op/thrift/charity shops, Ebay, clothes swaps etc. Just being open to these options can make you a more ethical shopper, even when you aren't shopping for vintage.
Vintage shopping encourages an awareness of textiles. They tell you the quality of the item, the care it will require, how well it will last, and can help tell a genuine vintage item from a later item "in the style of".
This awareness can help you be an ethical shopper too. You know that there are both natural and man made fibres that have a similar appearance, and you know to check and find out which it is. You can make sensible decisions about buying a fabric that will wear well for many years, and that has a lower environmental impact.
Buying vintage often means that buttons need to be resewn or popped seams repaired. So you've probably gotten used to the idea, and it is an accepted part of your life. Sometimes clothes need to be mended.
This is an important part of an ethical approach to clothes in general. You are willing to make the effort to keep your clothes wearable, rather than just throwing them out as soon as there is anything wrong with them. Indeed, it may take a more serious flaw for you to consider something as really damaged, too, because you have gotten used to the idea that one small flaw or mark on an item isn't in fact the end of the world.
Whether you do it yourself or pay to have it done, you have probably at least considered having some changes made to your clothes. Maybe a hem taken up, zipper replaced, size adjusted, or a new lining inserted.
Naturally, these same tactics can keep all of your clothes wearable for much longer, and help you get the most life out of them. You can also make the most use of your second hand shopping, clothes swaps or hand-me-downs this way too.
This may be a stretch, but compared to the average person, it seems like those involved in the vintage fashion scene are often very crafty. And the temptation to join those vintage lovers who are making their own amazing dresses, skirts, blouses and even jeans is very strong! And those patterns everyone keeps posting, with their swoon-worthy illustrations? You know you want to.
Which of course opens up a world of ethical options, and improves your ability to alter and mend your clothes too!
You can appreciate the handiwork and you enjoy the specialness of clothes. They are not just a throwaway item for you. That detailed embroidery? You know how many hours it must have taken, and that it makes the item more valuable.
This opens the way for you to be aware of what clothing should really cost. When you see that detailed embroidery on a new item for $20, you might stop and think about how it got there for that price.
That clothing, especially wearable clothing, ends up in landfill, is an appalling part of our modern life. Being used to buying clothes that have worn before, you know that unless something is really really dead, someone else will probably want it!
But what are the possible downsides?
Again, these aren't necessarily true for every vintage fashionista, but they are things to be cautious about, or consider. And I'm not saying that you should change your behaviours, just make sure you've given these things some thought.
It's a plus and a possible minus. You may not be supporting the fast fashion machine, but you also may not be supporting the slow fashion makers and innovative eco and fairtrade companies.
That's ok, there are plenty of buyers to go around, I guess, and you certainly don't have to change the way you like to dress and shop. It might, however, be worth checking out some of the companies that are making big positive changes in the fashion world, just to see what they are doing. If you make your own clothes, you might get some serious inspiration!
If you are hardly ever buying new clothes, it might be easy just to say "Oh I wear vintage, so that isn't my problem." So when you do need something new (maybe underwear or sporting clothes or pyjamas or something else you don't buy vintage), you aren't aware of the ethical issues. Without facing them frequently, it is easier to remain ignorant of them.
Ethical fashion isn't just about buying clothes with an ethical back-story. It's also about our unnecessarily high consumption. And we all know the blogging world is full of beautiful images of people wearing amazing clothes, and these images make us want ALL THE CLOTHES. All the pretty dresses we never need to wear. A totally new outfit no one has seen for our blog pictures.
I know that I personally love to see bloggers wearing the same clothes again, especially if they have changed up the combination of separates, the accessories, or the styling. It shows your readers the versatility of the items in a real way, and actual wardrobe inspiration that is more applicable to their lives than just a desire for more clothes (that maybe they can't afford anyway).
I would love to hear your thoughts on these points! Do you agree? Can you think of any other ways that a love of vintage inspires or helps a relationship with ethical fashion?
Don't forget the newsletter, if you haven't signed up already. There are new products going into my Etsy shop this week that you'll hear all about!

Q: Some doubts about how work this DCG grammar for subset of natural language in Prolog I am studying DCG grammar for natural language processing using Prolog and I have some doubts about if I have understand it correctly or if I am missing something.
This is my DCG grammar:
sentence2(VP) --> noun_phrase2(Actor),
              verb_phrase2(Actor, VP).

/* A noun phrase is a proper name of a person (that is unified in the Name variable) */
noun_phrase2(Name) --> properName(Name).

/* A verb_phrase can be an intransitive verb */
verb_phrase2(Actor, VP) --> intrans_verb(Actor, VP).

/* A verb_phrase can be a transitive verb followed by an object complement
verb_phrase2(Somebody, VP) --> trans_verb(Somebody, Something, VP),
                               noun_phrase2(Something).

/* The meaning of a proper name john is john
   The meaning of a proper name mary is mary */
properName(john) --> [john].
properName(mary) --> [mary].

intrans_verb(Actor, paints(Actor)) --> [paints].

trans_verb(Somebody, Something, likes(Somebody, Something)) --> [likes].

So this grammar can accept phrase like: [john, paints] that have the meaning: paints(john)
I would see if my idea about how I reach this meaning is correct.
So I think that this is what happen when I execute the following query:
?- sentence2(Meaning, [john, paints], []).
Meaning = paints(john)

[john paints] it is my final sentence that I have to evaluate and say if it belong to my language or not.
A sentence have to be formed in the following way:
sentence2(VP) --> noun_phrase2(Actor),
                  verb_phrase2(Actor, VP).

(by something that is noun phrase followed by something that is a verb phrase.
A noun phrase is composed in this way:
noun_phrase2(Name) --> properName(Name).

so a noun phrase is a proper name
The meaning of a proper name is simple because by this line:
properName(john) --> [john].

I am simply say that the john is a proper name and I am adding a parameter to the DCG grammar that specify its meaning. So: the semantic meaning of the proper name john is john
So, as the meaning of a noun phrase is the same meaning of the proper name (because the variables Name unify)
So in the previous case the meaning ot the noun_phrase2 predicate is john and the first evalutation step of my original sentence is end.
Now I have to evaluate that the second part is a verbal phrase by the predicate: verb_phrase2(Actor, VP)
A verbal phrase could be, as in this case, an intransitive verb:
verb_phrase2(Actor, VP) --> intrans_verb(Actor, VP).

An intransitive verb is definied in this way:
intrans_verb(Actor, paints(Actor)) --> [paints].

So the word paints is an intransitive verb and it's meaning is paints(Actor) where Actor is a variable that dependnds from the context (in this case Actor rappresent who do the action, who paints)
So, it do backtrack to verb_phrase2(Actor, VP) to verify verb_phrase2(Actor, VP)
Now Actor still remain a not yet unified variable and its meaning is VP = paints(Actor)
So, it is verified that paints is an intransitive verb and its meaning is paints(Actor)
So execute backtrack to the original sentence2(VP) predicate where I have just verified the noun_phrase2(Actor) predicate and in which Actor = john
So I have something like this situation:
sentence2(VP) --> noun_phrase2(john),
                  verb_phrase2(john, paints(john)).

So the final VP is unified to paints(john)
Is it my reasoning correct or am I missing something? Is it a good way to reasoning in Prolog way?

A: please ask a specific, short question. Include relevant code without excessive comments.
Here's how.

Given the DCG rules
sentence2(VP) --> noun_phrase2(Actor),verb_phrase2(Actor, VP).
noun_phrase2(Name) --> properName(Name).
verb_phrase2(Actor, VP) --> intrans_verb(Actor, VP).
verb_phrase2(Somebody, VP) --> trans_verb(Somebody, Something, VP),
                                 noun_phrase2(Something).
properName(john) --> [john].
properName(mary) --> [mary].
intrans_verb(Actor, paints(Actor)) --> [paints].
trans_verb(Somebody, Something, likes(Somebody, Something)) --> [likes].

how does the following achieve its result?
?- sentence2(Meaning, [john, paints], []).
Meaning = paints(john)

Answer:
The above rules are equivalent to
sentence2(VP, L, Z):- noun_phrase2(Actor, L, L2),
                      verb_phrase2(Actor, VP, L2, Z).
noun_phrase2(Name, L, Z):- properName(Name, L, Z).
verb_phrase2(Actor, VP, L, Z):- intrans_verb(Actor, VP, L, Z).
verb_phrase2(Somebody, VP, L, Z):- trans_verb(Somebody, Something, VP, L, L2),
                                   noun_phrase2(Something, L2, Z).
properName(john, L, Z):-
    L = [john | Z].         %// 'john' is present in the input stream
properName(mary, L, Z):-
    L = [mary | Z].         %// 'mary' is present in the input stream
/* an alternative definition
properName(X) --> [X], { member(X, [john, mary]) }.
   %% would be translated as
properName(X, L, Z):- L = [X | Z], member(X, [john, mary]).
*/
intrans_verb(Actor, paints(Actor), L, Z):-
    L = [paints | Z].       %// 'paints' is present in the input stream
trans_verb(Somebody, Something, likes(Somebody, Something), L, Z):-
    L = [likes | Z].        %// 'likes' is present in the input stream

In particular,
?- sentence2(Meaning, [john, paints], []).

?- noun_phrase2(Actor, [john, paints], L2),
   verb_phrase2(Actor, Meaning, L2, []).

  ?- noun_phrase2(Actor, [john, paints], L2).
  ?- properName(Actor, [john, paints], L2).
  ?- properName(john, [john, paints], L2).            { Actor=john }
  !- [john, paints] = [john | [paints]]               { L2=[paints] }

  ?- verb_phrase2(john, Meaning, [paints], []).
  ?- intrans_verb(john, Meaning, [paints], []).
  ?- intrans_verb(john, paints(john), [paints], []).  { Meaning=paints(john) }
  !- [paints] = [paints | []]

And if you resemble many people that have actually been desperate to soak for many years and years now, researching different programs, training strategies, buying tools and innovation created to increase your vertical leap without any genuine outcomes, you're more than doubtful. You're likely to be a disbeliever.
By the time you're finished with all of the within details listed below you're going to find out EXACTLY how the Vert Shock program is going to include double digit inches to your vertical leap almost overnight, offering you the ability to leap greater and hanging in the air longer than you ever had the ability to the past.
The Vert Shock program is very much the real deal, and you 'd have to be at least a bit crazy not to (at the extremely least) hear me out.
The top thing that separates the Vert Shock program from the remainder of the pack is this program's unique capability to deliver spectacular results– legitimate results– faster than maybe anything else out there.
Even simply a surface area level dive into the proof and testimonials, in addition to the containers and pails of glowingly positive reviews out there online, relating to the Vert Shock program will reveal you simply how successful this option really is.
With the Vert Shock program, we are discussing an uncomplicated, systemized, and uncomplicated platform developed to do one thing and something better than any other program out there– add an incredible quantity of verticality to your leaping capability, almost right now.
You can find hours and hours of video proof and video testimonials from reality consumers that have actually used the Vert Shock program to dunk basketballs for the very first time.
You'll see that these individuals are not particularly athletically talented, do not have a 6 foot plus height advantage, and are the sort of people that you would traditionally believe are able to leap into the air, hang there for what feels like forever, and then knock down a dunk with the sort of force that you get out of someone like Lebron James.
No. These are Typical Joes, rec league warriors, and weekend select up video game champs aiming to get an edge, regain a step, and blow up in the air for the very first time ever to actually poster a man.
The whole backbone of the Vert Shock program was developed of, developed, and developed be a previous NCAA Department I and global professional basketball player by the name of Adam Folker.
After investing many of his young life going toe-to-toe with some of the best worldwide at the great sport of basketball, Adam recognized pretty rapidly that guys that might play "above the rim" were always going to have a big benefit over those that couldn't.
Now, Adam is a man that was always high– just a shade taller than NBA legend Kobe Bryant, in fact– and his natural verticality helped to make him an unique gamer in his early high school days.
However, he found out first hand that height alone wasn't going to get him to the major leagues, and wasn't going to win him any additional time on the floor in school, either. Sure he was a big body– however he couldn't leap with the very best of them, and couldn't even soak, all while being able to barely touch the rim FLAT FOOTED.
His coach sat him down, informed him he had great talent, vision, and a hell of a shot, but if he could not play above the rim he was never ever going to make it in the game at the greatest levels possible.
The genuine "secret sauce" to leaping dozes of inches greater into the air nearly overnight come down to a three step chain of easy movements you NEED TO do to open your vertical leap.
Follow these three actions (detailed totally in the Vert Shock guide), and you'll be flying through the air like Michael Jordan. Neglect them, and you're stuck on World Earth like the remainder of the wannabes.

The Last Great Estate in Providence
Occupying nearly an entire city block in Providence's coveted Blackstone neighborhood, the Brigham Estate is described in the listing as the "last great estate in Providence," and has a price to match, at $9.5M. The sprawling estate was completed in 1915 for Rhode Island School of Design professor William E. Brigham and his wife Clara, who had inherited a substantial fortune. The pair spent plenty of it on this knockout of an estate, enlisting Eleazer B Homer, the first director of the Rhode Island School of Design, to design the Tuscan-inspired main house. Today, it features just four bedrooms and 4.5 baths over 9,424 square feet, with the rest turned over to gracious entertaining spaces and what appear to be former studio spaces for the original owners, who were both artists. The extensive gardens are impeccibly groomed, keeping to traditions established by the Brighams. When the current owners acquired the estate in the 1960s, there were no fewer than 15 gardeners working full time to maintain the immaculate grounds. Those owners are looking for a buyer for whom money is no object, as evidenced by the price hike in July 2011 from $5.5M to the current $9.5M.

Educating several children while living in the perpetual pregnant/newborn/toddler phase requires two things.
That's it. You don't need fancy planners, timers, detailed schedules, expensive curriculum, or exciting new gadgets. Sure, those things can be helpful if they work for you, but they are secondary, not necessary.
There is no "right" way to homeschool. There are countless ways to do it well and you have to choose the way that is best for your family. But in all homeschool families one thing is certain: Being a home educated family is a way of life. It's the CULTURE and family dynamics that make it even possible!
I have five children between the ages of seven months and ten years. We are a military family and have been homeschooling for four years. Every time we have to move to a new state I hop on over to HSLDA and check out the homeschooling laws. "Ok," I think to myself, "What hoops are they going to make me jump through now?" States that have heavy homeschool regulations labor under the same misunderstanding that so many non-homeschoolers have. Homeschooling doesn't happen within a prescribed amount of hours a day for X days a year. I set up an environment for learning in our home and "school" happens from the moment we wake up in the morning until the moment we fall asleep at night. Setting up a home conducive to learning is not as difficult as it seems, though it does take some conscious thought.
Reading is a favorite pastime for our family. Sitting down to read to my toddler is like a homing beacon for the other children: before I know it, I'm reading countless picture books to everyone. "Get a book" is a phrase heard very often in my home. When a child complains that they are bored I reply, "Get a book." When they are acting crazy (not necessarily disobedient but loud and spazzy) and I need a break from the noise I call them all in to the same room and say, "Get a book." When I'm almost ready to start school for the day and need them to calm down while I finish up a few more things… you get the idea.
We have more books than any single person I know. Part of this is due to the fact that for years I just bought any book we might need for school because was scared to take my young sons to the library, but mostly it's because I am a bibliophile. For the first time in my life I am finding myself in a position where I need to purge some of my book collection. I'm no longer concerned with the quantity of books that we own, but the quality. We just don't have the room to keep books that we are lukewarm about. I am a HUGE advocate of a literature based education. There is very little information necessary to living a happy and successful life that can't be found within the pages of the classics.
Being that literature is one of the best primary educational sources out there, having a library is essential to having a successful educational environment. The birth of the eReader combined with gutenberg.org means that you and your children can have a high quality, leadership education for very little money. Amazon.com offers all of the same free books in kindle format as well as countless other books for 99 cents (though not all of these free or inexpensive books are high quality, so use your parental discretion). An inexpensive eReader combined with your local public library is a priceless educational treasure.
We do own a television… two actually. While literature is our primary source of information, we do use the television to supplement our education. Not everyone wants a TV, and that's ok if you don't, but I will never tell you that you shouldn't have one. Some things, like the works of Shakespeare, just need to be seen! Having a television makes possible for us to enjoy Hamlet and The Magic Flute in our own home (not to mention without having to pay for several admission tickets and/or a babysitter). Beyond stage classics I have found period movies and select TV series to be very helpful for putting history in context as well as good, clean, family entertainment. Watching Pride and Prejudice or Meet Me in St. Louis on a Friday night invites just as much curiosity and learning as it would during "school" hours. Don't believe me? You should have heard the conversation I had with my daughters about English inheritance laws in the 18th and 19th century, or see the dress that my oldest and I are designing based on the fashions of the early 1900's.
There are so many educational games and oh, so little time. Personally, I like to have games that require minimal instruction or participation on my part (sometimes mom needs to get things done without a kid hanging off of her leg) so we stick to things like Professor Noggin , Scrabble, Yahtzee, puzzles, card games, etc. Confession time… I also don't care if they stick to the rules. I encourage them to think outside the box and make up their own rules as they go along (we do teach them the rules, but since they only play these games with each other and us, I'm not concerned about sticking to them). The only two requirements are 1. no fighting (if you start to fight the games get put away) and 2. include everyone who wants to play. You would be surprised at how much fun five kids can have with a deck of cards or a set of dice! This kind of play encourages team work and creativity.
This is probably the most important aspect of setting up a house of learning. Learning doesn't happen only from 9 am to 3 pm, it happens the entire time you and your children are awake. Encourage them to ask questions and take the time to answer them. When you see an inchworm while you are relaxing on a Saturday afternoon, call your kids over and watch it together. Talk about what you are observing and, if you are so inclined, research them. Look for teaching opportunities. If your child finds herself in a difficult situation remind them of character lessons from stories you have read together. Tell them why putting salt in the water makes pasta cook faster. Show them what happens when you mix baking soda and vinegar (your kids will never forget it!) It may only take a few minutes minutes at a time but those minutes add up to thousands of hours over the course of their childhood. I can't tell you how many times I have decided not to have formal school for the day because I was too tired or needed to catch up on work, only to have a several hour long lesson be sparked by a picture book.
I know that when my children hit high school we are going to have to be a little more structured but for now my job is to inspire them and to show them how fun learning is.
I love this! My husband and I love to collect books. We usually buy books for each other for Christmas, birthday's, etc… I use the same phrase with my kids too- when they're driving me crazy- get a book! I'm with you about educational programs- we don't have a tv, but watch things on the computer. We watched magic flute (as recommended by you) and they LOVED it. Seriously- I've never seen little boys so enthralled- they stayed up till way past eleven even though they were exhausted and were just mesmerized.
I'm glad they liked it!
This post is inspiring to me. This is going to be my first year teaching all 4 of my children at home and I am trying to set up a public school like schedule and it is driving me nuts. I am going to follow your example and just create a learning environment. Thank you for this post and I look forward to the next one.
I would suggest reading this article I wrote a few years ago. The school at home model is one that a lot of new homeschoolers try. I haven't found it very successful. at. all.
I too have more books than I know what to do with. We have shelves in every room and all of them are bursting, double stacked. We love books around here. But you are so right that homeschooling is more about creating the right environment than it is about curriculum. We are just a family that reads and listens to stories and digs into topics that interest us (or that Mom picks for us to explore). It has worked so far!
Very nice essay. We had a friend who home schooled her children. Her philosophy was that she taught her children to read and then they taught themselves. I guess she set goals and the criteria for "mastery." I enjoyed her comments.
I tried setting up like school in the beginning too. Then I thought, "so much of this is a waste of time!" Instead of charting the weather why not see if you need a jacket or not and go for a walk? :-) We do a lot of games too. Another example: We were at the airport yesterday so we practiced Abc order while looking at flight info. It is so much more fun and natural than a wotksheet! Great post. I enjoyed it.
Love this Post. We are nearly at the end of our first year homeschooling 5 kids aged 9 to 7 months. I love it. I love your homeschool style, very similar to ours and very much based on TJed philisophy. Creating a house of learning and helping the kids fall in love with learning and also learn how to find out information for themselves is so important.
I also love literature and classics-based learning. We read so much together as a family and the independent readers in the family are found with heads in books as much as they are wanting to play.
Thanks for the post it reinforced to me why we do what we do in our homeschool.

Cafe MAO, the new Asian restaurant run by the charming (and Scottish) Robert and his team. When you sit down you are served before you can even say chopsticks.

"Milano's Leggera allows customers to go out for dinner and enjoy a tasty meal without sacrifice"
Opened in Enniskerry County Wicklow In 1982 and since then it has become a favouirte destination of those who love tasty and wholesome country cooking.
We opened our doors on 3rd of November 2003, with the desire to introduce authentic flavours of Indian Sub continent. India is a country of 1.2 billion people of huge diversity, her love affair with food is only natural. From the day one, we are working hard to bring true flavours of Indian homes, street food, Sattvic vegetarian food and assorted Royal Palaces. At Rasam each day we are busy perfecting our performance of the previous day. Our cooking tradition is based on pure ingredients, and our hospitality is more than a social formality.
The Eagles House in Glasthule is a landmark pub in the village of Glasthule. Famous for years, it was taken over a little over a year ago by Declan McNamara, and things have taken an interesting turn on the food side since. Glasthule is already served very well with good food; Cavistons and Rasam are both in the village, so building up a food business is tricky. Luckily, this is where Chef Sateesh Sayana came in. Originally from Hyderabad in India, Sateesh trained with the Oberoi group in India before coming to Ireland to help set up Rasam, and spent five years with them, in what is undoubtedly one of Irelands finest Indian restaurants. Cut a long story short, Sateesh moved downstairs to work the pub with Declan, and the results are pretty surprising.
We have created an innovative menu based on the Chicken and the Egg - but it doesn't stop there.... we use or own unique methods of preparing fish dishes and fantastic meat creations The Hen House is a place for all the family to enjoy.

US-Gulf Pressure On Iranian Regime Proving Effective – OpEd
October 1, 2018 Arab News 0 Comments
By Arab News
Dr. Majid Rafizadeh*
In spite of what the cynics claim, the Iran policy of the US and Gulf Arab states is well-informed and is gradually bringing about effective results.
Those who oppose the US and Gulf states' policy toward Tehran continue to advocate for pursuing appeasement policies with the Iranian regime, despite the concrete evidence that such policies have emboldened and empowered Tehran in ratcheting up its hostile activities in the region.
A detailed comparison of the regime's military expansionism before and after the nuclear deal ought to teach a significant lesson to those who insist on carrying out rapprochement with the ruling mullahs.
What marked the new era of total appeasement toward the Iranian regime was the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), commonly known as the Iran nuclear deal, which was reached between President Hassan Rouhani's administration and six world powers (the P5+1, namely France, Russia, the UK, China and the US, plus Germany).
The advocates of appeasing Iran had a chance to pursue their policy against Tehran when the four rounds of UN Security Council sanctions were lifted. The result was Tehran increasing its militaristic and political influence in several countries in the region, particularly Syria, Iraq and Yemen.
With no international pressure imposed on Iran while the regime began receiving billions of dollars in extra revenues, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and its elite branch the Quds Force, which conducts operations in foreign nations, gained a greater ability to assist the Syrian regime in escalating bombardments, bloodshed and violence, and defeat the majority of Syria's opposition groups.
Financial, advisory and military support to Shiite militia groups such as Hezbollah and the Houthis also increased to an unprecedented level. Tehran also escalated its efforts to harass other countries in the Gulf.
Offering Iran the carrot without the stick has proved to be totally unproductive. That is why the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) and the US have argued that pressure ought to be imposed on the theocratic establishment of Iran in order to elicit constructive changes in its behavior. Any astute observer of Iran's politics would witness that solely appeasing the Iranian regime not only kept the underlying problem intact, but also intensified Iran's aggressive policies in the region.
Intriguingly, since the Trump administration and the Gulf states increased the pressure on Iran, Tehran has totally halted its harassment of foreign navy ships, including US and British naval vessels, in the Gulf. During the Obama administration and after the nuclear deal, Tehran frequently and dangerously harassed foreign navy ships in the Gulf, and famously captured and detained 10 US sailors in 2016.
For an Iran policy to be effective, it ought to have three concentric circles of pressure: Diplomatic, financial, and domestic. The US and Gulf states are incorporating these three dimensions in their policy toward Iran.
Diplomatically speaking, instead of condoning Iran's destructive behavior, the Gulf states and the US have been vocal on the global stage with respect to Tehran's aggressive and expansionist policies in the region. President Donald Trump last week criticized Iran at the UN General Assembly, stating: "Iran's leaders sow chaos, death and destruction." He added: "They do not respect their neighbors or borders or the sovereign rights of nations. Instead, Iran's leaders plunder the nation's resources to enrich themselves and spread mayhem across the Middle East and far beyond."
From a financial perspective, the reimposition of sanctions — as well as the concerted attempts to cut off the flow of funds to the regime that are directed toward sponsoring terror groups — have decreased Tehran's revenues and discouraged many Western firms from signing business deals with the Iranian leaders.
Ahead of the reimposition of secondary sanctions by the US in November, Iran's oil exports declined by about 1 million barrels per day (bpd) between April and September . The Institute of International Finance pointed out that: "Iran may continue to be committed to the 2015 nuclear deal providing the EU and others do the same. However, failure to renegotiate the deal with the US would likely bring about even deeper damage to Iran's economy."
Last week, the price of gold went up significantly in Iran, while Tehran's currency, the rial, reached a historic low of 150,000 to the dollar. Saudi Arabian Foreign Minister Adel Al-Jubeir recently pointed out that the Islamic Republic was unlikely to voluntarily alter its behavior. "Unless the pressure internally is extremely intense, I don't believe they will open up, I think they are too ideological for that," he said.
Internally, Iran's domestic pressures and protests against the clerical rule continue, while the US and Gulf states have expressed their support for the Iranian people.
The US and Gulf states' policies toward Iran are working. Solely offering the Iranian regime carrots is perilous and counter-productive.

I've begun exploring using scala in a project which already uses Java and Groovy (predominately Java). I'm on the latest v9 community build and the latest scala plugin. Currently, I only have three scala files. Whenever I change a file and recompile, it takes 7 to 10 seconds and seems to parse every java file in the project (2300+ files). This is 7-10 times longer than the normal compile/test cycle I'm used to.
In fact, unless I uncheck 'compile scala files first', IntelliJ exhibits the same behavoir when compiling Java files in the same module.
Are other people seeing this?
Maybe the Scala parser parses also the Java files because there might be a mutual dependency between Java and Scala files. If your Java files do not depend on Scala files I would just uncheck the option 'compile scala files first'.
Additionally you can try to speedup the compilation process by using the fast scala compiler (check Settings->Compiler->Scala compiler->Use fsc (fast scalac)).
the scala compilation speed is puzzling me. i switched of the fsc, but it didn't get much slower. a month ago, when i first used the fsc, it was a great improvement. did the plugin get better?
It may be a bug in the dependency tree. My project uses maven and currently has two modules, alpha and proto. Right now the scala files are in proto, which depends on alpha. The proto module is for prototyping activities and brings in some non-production libraries, scala being one.
However, aside from the module dependency, the actual scala files themselves are bare-bones. They don't use any non-built-in classes at the moment. They would in the future, but right now I'm just using them to learn the language.
I'm not sure fsc would help because the issue seems to be before the actual compilation takes place. It seems to scan all the source files in both alpha and proto. It's hard to tell since the names go by so fast and there is no logging.
I'm willing to turn on debugging to help figure this out - any scala-plugin developers read this forum?


May 17th are both 'International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia' and Indonesia's 'National Book Day'. Let me combine the two and make the duo to be: Celebration of openness, freedom of communication, and acceptance towards diversity.
Books can be the bridge to other realms, worlds and minds. I believe books are also the key to openness in order to gain freedom, power, and understanding. Yet, since last year, we know how many books are at stake to land on bookstores... to your shelf due to 'sensitivity' issue. How sad that books are made as first-place victims in politics.
My simple wish on this special day... is that there will be no books that share knowledge, openness and truth to be banned, for whatever reason---religion or state. Reading without limits! No one should encounter any barriers to read a book. And let the world be a better and safe place for open-minded society.

The Mold From Which All Others Were Struck - The Crone
The Crone is the first Witch, Mistress of the Grand Coven, and oldest among her sisters. Legends say that at the dawn of time, she was the first mortal woman to take on the mantle of the Immortal Witch. If this is true, she is the mold from which all other Witches are struck. It was the Crone who brought such disparate and stong-willed individuals as the Djinn and the Morrigan and the witch now known as Baba Yaga together to form the Grand Coven. It was she who laid the plans for the invasion of Morden. Through the sheer force of her will, she directed the advance of the squabbling, largely incompatible Witch Armies.
No one, not even her closest associates and advisors, knew the Crone's true origins. She seemed as old as Witchcraft itself—a withered, haggard creature, twisted with hate, brutality, and naked greed. If she were once a mortal, her reasons for trading her humanity for the ultimate powerful of witchcraft were known only to her, and what personal demons drove her remain mysteries. She was a force of nature, possessing the searing heat of a wildfire and the destructive energy of a hurricane in her heart. Men, creatures, and even the other Witches in the Grand Coven followed her out of a combination of fear and morbid curiosity rather than out of any respect or fellow feeling.
While she ruled many lands and corrupted many hearts over the course of her life, her greatest achievement was as the architect of the invasion of Morden. It was the Bane War that showcased her savagery, her brutality, and her particular genius for creating chaos and suffering. It was her drive and her passions that drove the Witch Armies across the lands of Morden, killing and burning everything in their paths. While the Grand Coven was, on its surface, supposed to be an alliance of equals, it was clear that the Crone was first among these so-called equals. Her power and ambition outshone that of her sisters, and it was by her will alone that the Bane War was prosecuted.
Then, all at once, the Crone was gone. As the Grand Coven dissolved with the great betrayal and the Crone's plans came unraveled, she simply vanished. No one is sure when she disappeared or where she went. There was no sign of her passing, no great event that announced her going, but she was gone all the same. Some say that she tired of the Bane War and left Morden to pursue other goals, leaving the remains of the Grand Coven to deal with the aftermath. Others say that some greater, more lucrative prize caught her greedy eye, something far beyond the lands of Morden. It is even said that in a fit of shrieking, incandescent rage at the great betrayal, she was consumed by her own magics and left nothing behind but ash. Whatever the case, her coming and mysterious going has left the entirety of Morden in ruins and has changed the course of history very much for the worse.

you need this path to get the DVR version, and check if it's running, as well as modifying the config file.
The second dir /volume1/HDHomeRunDVR needs to be changed to where ever your recordpath is pointing to.
This is only needed for the logfile parsing.
I installed the engine on my DS4llJ succesfully but do I need to buy a subscription to test it out? If so, how do I enter the activation code when I purchase a subscription? The NAS says it's running the service but when I go to the web UI of the DVR manager, 192.168.1.23/HDHomeRunDVR, I get a "502: There is an error while processing this request"
BTW, I used the windows HDHomeRun to do the NAS install and it was successful.
You activate that by clicking the link in the email they send you on purchase (or if you are a KS contributor of $30 or more that email was sent at least 2 years ago). You should check that the tuners are visible at my.hdhomerun.com from your default browser (or browser you click the link from if using web based email). The tuners themselves control the authorization.
This is because you haven't set up the open_basedir correctly in the PHP settings.
Try removing all entries - leave the check box checked, and leave the text box empty - then apply.
Wow, that worked! Thanks. I delete it for PHP 5.6/7.0 and no more errors! Thanks again.
I installed version 0.3 on DS212j. I did the workaround for PHP open_basedir (the checkbox is unchecked). PHP version is 5.6, HTTP server is Nginx.
BTW, per API doc, I should be able to do <baseurl>:4999/discover.json and get status. However that fails. I am not sure if the two are related. Do you know if there is another port that recording engine uses?
I shall email screen caps to you.
Most people find it easy to just remove the entries in the text box and apply.
For the second one - yes - I push the engine to 59090.
Once you fix the open_basedir you can update it.
@demonrik, Where is the engine port specified?
is in the conf file.
By the way do you prefer discord or this forum?
However following your lead (recommendations) I also (now) have the box checked but the path blank. I was hoping that with the paths I would be able to view the logs and recordings.
So far this is a great stride in the development of a missing SD feature. Looking forward to future builds.
I guess I'll keep using this forum because, in my opinion, you respond very fast here!


I have had to overcome a lot since my MS has developed into MS. At the beginning it was a dizzy feeling and because you were never a lover of sporting activities, you were never really as fit as the others. However things progressed, and with the confirmation that I was actually not fit because it all hung together with something called MS I had to begin to take my life into my own hands. Of course I had very good support from my neurologist and doctor but there is no cure.
My first challenge was injecting every second day which serves the purpose of slowing down the progress of the illness. I had two visits from the lady that organises my medication to show me how to do it and afterwards it was I, me and myself and a "mix-jet" syringe. There was a powder medicine to screw onto the syringe which was filled with liquid (something like alcohol I suppose). You mixed it together and eventually the injection was ready. Just stick the needle into an arm, leg, solar plexis, or stomach, alternating each time with the right side or the left side. This means that not the same part of the body is attacked each time. After three years it has become part of daily life.
Then there was the wheelchair, an electric one as I wanted to go places. The first journey on my own was in the neighbouring parts of the village, not wanting to risk too much. With time I was up the hill to the local castle and after a year I did my first trip to town which had to be overcome. Now the ice was broken and no holds barred. I was off to town on every market day, the annual trade fair, and even the cheese days when they had cows on the market place. I am probably now known as the lady in the wheelchair with the camera. Of course the camera comes with me, make the most of it I say.
Otherwise for visits to the doc in town or shopping I leave the wheelchair at home. In town where I have to walk to places, I belong to the walker brigade – the golden oldies pushing their four wheeled trollies in front of them for support. At the supermarket they supply their own trolley for the shopping and at home I have the walker, my stick and various pieces of furniture that I can hold onto for support.
The latest development can be seen above. Today the plumber arrived and converted the shower into a place where I can be safe. I now have a collapsible seat which folds into the wall when not use, a wire basket for the soap etc. and a grip for helping to stand from the seat.
Even showering will now become an adventure. What could be better. We also have a real bathroom, but I decided to have the shower converted. It is more comfortable.
I wish I could do that — maybe someday. I always shower, so I don't need the tub, and when my hip was bad, it was hard to get my leg over the edge. I have no idea what the future holds for my mobility.
In the wheel-chair adapted house my parents' built in Colorado Springs, we built a special shower for my dad so he could take his wheelchair into it. No motorized wheelchairs back then, so… Since we ended up giving him his showers, it was lucky for us that we'd built it that way.
I had to stop using the bath as I cannot climb into it, but had to slide along the big ledge at the back onto a seat I had. The seat broke and it was too risky for me to get back on the ledge. I tried our shower and found it perfect, but had a word with our plumber for improvements and this is the result. The shower is just the right size, not too big. I bought my wheelchair myself. If I had waited for financing it would have been a mechanical one. They would never have financed an electric one.
I'm really happy you bought that wheelchair because you're free and I get to see great photos.
Very nice setup! The folding seat as well.
Your shower really is pretty. Functional, too. We still have to climb the tub to get into the shower….and we don't even use the tub! I really like how yours looks. I think I would like this…..
We have a fully functioning tub, also complete with shower, but I can no longer climb into it. My legs cannot manage. I can use the shower easily, but cannot bend to reach my legs. Now I have a nice comfortable seat.
That is very much what ours is going to look like, but it will be a bit longer because it's replacing the bathrub. But otherwise, very similar.
