The great enemy of our souls "the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour" (1 Peter 5:8). Yet he can also be "transformed into an angel of light," and so can "his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness" (2 Corinthians 11:14-15). He and his ministers are perhaps most dangerous when most deceptive, quoting Scripture and spiritual sentiments in a superficial show of piety, yet distorting the "Scriptures, unto their own destruction" (2 Peter 3:16), and we must use the sword of the Spirit against them.
Then there are those times when, angered that their deceptions (sometimes even their own self-deceptions) are not persuading the true people of God to compromise their stand for God's truth and His great salvation, they resort to great pressure and overt opposition—even persecution—seeking to silence their testimony. The enemy comes in like a great flood, and the waves seem about to engulf us, and we cry with the psalmist: "If it had not been the LORD who was on our side, when men rose up against us: Then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us: Then the waters had overwhelmed us, the stream had gone over our soul" (Psalm 124:2-4).
But God is on our side, as long as we are on His side and hold fast to His clearly revealed Word. Before the demonic flood can overwhelm us, the Spirit of the Lord will lift up His standard (or, more literally, "put him to flight"), and God will prevail once again, for "the foundation of God standeth sure" (2 Timothy 2:19), and "greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world" (1 John 4:4).

Q: Can't display Unicode characters with a Delphi7 webbroker app I develop a delphi7 webbroker  multilanguage  application for apache2,2. The application is using Oracle xe11 for data storage, and Devart's ODAC components to communicate with the Database. I set up the Orasession component as to use Unicode. The data inside the database was stored properly in Unicode capable data type columns. With another desktop application , also written in Delphi 7 we are able to store, retrieve and display correctly the same  data of the database (I'm using Unicode capable components).  My problem occurs when I want to display these data with the webbroker  appl in html format. I'm using the default components provided by delphi 7 (TWebResponse). All text which are in Latin characters displaying correctly but all the others which are in different languages (not latin) not. Can you suggest me what have I do to solve the problem?

A: (How) do you encode the unicode output of your components to the non-unicode capable (Ansi)String of TWebResponse.Content?
I guess the system codepage does not contain Ü (probably the same as the German Umlaut Ü -> U+00DC) and you are using an implicit conversion to (Ansi)String that takes the best mapping it can.
At least in Delphi 2006 you can / have to use
function Utf8Encode(const WS: WideString): UTF8String;

in system.pas (utf8string is a string - defined in same unit). As far as I know that function was there also in in Delphi 7.

A: You can't but you can work around it.
    Label1.Font.Charset := TURKISH_CHARSET;

Mess with the Charset property to get what you want.

is a closed railway station on the defunct Hiroo Line in Obihiro, Hokkaido, Japan. Now owned by the Kofuku town residents' association, even after its closure in 1987, it remains a popular sightseeing spot because of its name, which means "happiness" in Japanese.

Lines
Kōfuku Station was served by the now-closed 84 km  between  and Hiroo Station in Hiroo, and was located 22.0 km from the starting point of the line at Obihiro.

Station layout
The original station building remains standing, and many people paste business cards and messages on the walls of the waiting room, hoping for happiness.

History
The station opened on 1 November 1956. It closed in 1987 when the entire line closed just before privatization of Japanese National Railways (JNR).

The station become famous after it was featured on a Japanese NHK TV travel documentary programme in 1973. In fiscal 2012, it was visited by about 175,000 people, making it one of the top tourist attractions in the area.

The ageing station structure was scheduled to be renovated by Obihiro city government between September and November 2013, at a cost of 33 million yen.

Surrounding area
The station takes its name from the name of the area in which it is located. Although the area was originally called Kōshin, it was changed to Kōfuku in around 1910 by combining the "Kō" of Kōshin with "Fuku" from Fukui, denoting the farmers from Fukui Prefecture who moved to the area around 1902 after being displaced by flooding.

Yaaḵoosgé Daakahídi Alternative High School
Yaakoosgé Daakahídi Alternative High School is a high school of the Juneau School District in the City and Borough of Juneau, Alaska, United States. The school is an opportunity for students over the age of 16 to have a less mainstream high school experience than that offered by Juneau-Douglas High School. In recent years, the school has hosted nearly 100 students ages 16 and up. The school serves students at risk of dropping out, about half of whom are from racial and ethnic minorities. The school graduates about 40 students a year.
The school is seeking to expand into the school district's headquarters located across the street from its existing facility. The move would allow the school to double its student body.

Red Bull vs. Straight Caffeine: Which Is Better?
Joshua Wortman
Contributor - Health and Fitness News
Over the last decade, energy drinks have become a huge market in both the sports world and the general public. Athletes use them to improve performance on the field, whereas the average Joe may pick one up to help him focus and get through the day. It is known the main ingredient in energy drinks that delivers results is caffeine. But what about all the other ingredients, like taurine and B-vitamins? Labels on various energy drinks often boast about other ingredients that are supposed to help with performance. A recent study investigated the secondary ingredients in Red Bull and the relationship to aerobic metabolism during and following heavy exercise.
The study included 8 recreationally trained individuals who completed a graded exercise test to determine their gas exchange threshold (GET). On two separate occasions, each subject ingested a serving (245 ml) of Red Bull or a control drink that had the same caffeine content prior to 10-minute constant-load cycling sessions. The intensity of the bouts was equivalent to their GET, and they rested 3 minutes between sessions.1
The accumulated liters of oxygen were higher for the first bout for both drink groups, but did not differ between drinks. Excess post-exercise oxygen consumption was higher following the initial versus the second bout, but also did not differ between drinks. Furthermore, there were no differences in heart rate or rating of perceived exertion between either drink group.2
The results of this study indicate that the secondary ingredients in Red Bull, including taurine and B-vitamins, do not enhance aerobic metabolism during or subsequent to heavy exercise. There have been numerous studies proving the efficacy of caffeine, which is the main ingredient in many energy drinks. Little research, however, had been done to determine if the secondary ingredients in these drinks had a beneficial effect on aerobic metabolism during and following heavy exercise. In terms of cost, caffeine as a standalone supplement costs much less than the average energy drink, and may actually provide the most bang for your buck when it comes to performance. Based on the results of this study, it may make more since if Red Bull's slogan was changed to "Caffeine, it gives you wings!"

The Zodd is in the house!
I'm back people! Yes, it is I, Zodd, who's once again writing from my dwelling in Sweden.
And do I have news for you!!! Totally mindblowing and wicked news, believe you me!
I've been asked by the ultimately GORGEOUS Pomo if I want to have a few dates with her this winter. And what's more - she wish to carry my children! It's CRAAAAAAZY, and I'm SO ready for it! I've already started on my annual diet consisting of air, water and the occasional nibble of food. I need to look good, you know? Look good for the lady I mean.
I'm PSYCHED! I can't wait for our date!!!
Sanna was kind enough to make this nice poster thingy so I can show you what a good match we are.
If you want to learn more about this, and maybe look at the totally hot Pomo a bit more, you can check out her homepage HERE!
I'm turning five this winter and I'm in my prime according to people (I beg to differ... I've been in my prime since birth) so it's common sense that I should finally get a date, right?!
I know Sanna have talked about other ladies that's been interested in me from time to time, but since she's the one who takes care of my correspondence and other boring tasks she's had full control over my non-existing love life. I'm glad she's finally seen the light and accepted on my behalf!
I will keep you updated on the subject, I promise! As far as I know Sanna, Lucas and I will travel to Pomo's place for a date. It'll be a long trip since she lives far away in some place called Finland, but I have two wellbehaved humans so I trust they will bring me to her. I can always catch up on my beauty sleep during the trip.
We'll leave at the end of November.
The mating was canceled because Pomo broke her leg the same day as our trip was to take place and she was not in mating condition.
We are keeping fingers and paws crossed that she will recover without problems!
For more information you can send an e-mail to Pomo's owner Maritta. You can find the contact information on her homepage --- HERE!
There are A LOT of photos this month (just over 100) so please use the links above and/or below to navigate, just like old times!

Frisbeer is a college drinking game that is gaining in popularity. The only drawback is its mostly played outside, so depending on where your college or university is located, it could be tough to play year round.
Frisbeer is a drinking game involving a frisbee, 2 teams of 2 people, 2 bricks or stones, and 2 bottles (plastic bottles filled with some water work best). The objective is to score points by knocking down your opponents bottle with the frisbee.
The two teams are usually set up similar to beer pong or horse shoes about 25 feet apart. The bottle should be placed on the brick so a frisbee sliding on the ground won't knock the bottle over. Two plastic cups are filled a quarter to half way with beer and placed to the side equidistant from both teams (out of the way of the game).
Each team gets to throw the frisbee once (From behind their own bottle) to try to knock over the bottle. The players on each team alternate throwing the frisbee each turn.
The opposing team can try and play defense: After the frisbee touches the ground or some other object, the frisbee can be swatted down. Wherever the frisbee is swatted down the team who swatted the frisbee can throw from that location (if it is closer than their bottle).
Each bottle that is knocked over is one point.
Offensive Players: The player that knocked the bottle over runs as fast as possible to get the frisbee and throw it back to his or her opponent who tries to knock the frisbee down into their own bottle for an extra point.
Defensive Players: At the same time, the team who got their bottle knocked over first runs to the middle of the field (off to the side out of the direct line between the bottles) where 2 half cups of beer are waiting. They must chug the beer first then they can try to swat down the throw for the extra point.

The Broadmoor Way
Core Purpose
Community Focus
Core Purpose &
Our Core Purpose is the foundation of our organization and the work we do, and our Core Values are why and how we do what we do.
"To Honorably Serve Our Communities"
This means that we raise the bar for our industry. The good work we do is appreciated by our community and the clients that we serve. When people hear that Broadmoor is building the project, they know it will be done on time and built right. Our Core Values are the guiding principles that describe who we are and how we do our work. No matter how the world changes, these core values will remain the same.
"We Treat Our People Like Family"
We are a business of families and we take care of our people when they are in need. In good times and bad, we believe the key to success is investing in our employees. When employees are treated right, they can provide the highest level of service to our customers. We also ensure that our teams are equipped with the latest technology so they can provide the best outcomes with the least inconvenience. It is an honor to work alongside people who share our values and are committed to a purpose that is bigger than building a job and making money.
We believe in doing the right thing, no matter what. Dealing with our customers honestly and going to any lengths to ensure the safety of our employees is our top priority. If it's worth doing, it's worth doing right. In doing so, we take no shortcuts, even if it will cost us money. We are members of a community and it important to us to be known for our complete transparency and the quality of our work.
"Perpetuate the Legacy by Being a Part of Something Special"
Broadmoor is special because of the dedication and experience of its people and the pride that we have in our work, and in serving our community. Our founders gave us a gift of building an enduring company, and our job to continue their legacy by honorably serving our community.
"We Keep Our Promises"
If we say it, we're going to do it. When we signed up to complete the Superdome renovations after Katrina, we promised to complete them in time for the Saints team's first game back in the dome. The company made a wonderful effort and completed the job on time. It was a big promise because it had a big spotlight on it, but keeping promises is the key to our everyday work. We do what we say we are going to do so people can count on us.
"Never Be Satisfied"
No matter how well we do our jobs, we want to do better. There's no room in what we do for complacency and we have to be constantly improving. It's not comparing ourselves to anyone else, it is about comparing ourselves to what is possible, and striving to improve every aspect of our business.

Netball star eyes national team selection
A CPUT student says playing in the national Telkom Netball League is the biggest blessing and puts her in good stead to be selected into the senior national team.
"I am absolutely humbled and honoured. It's the biggest blessing and privilege, firstly to represent my province in a tournament where the best in the country compete against each other whist getting the opportunity to be recognised or possibly selected into the national team," says Shannen Bartlett, a first-year Education student.
The Western Cape's Southern Stings' Centre started playing netball from a tender age when she was in Grade 2 at Hugo Rust Primary. She started off as a Goal Attack. "When you're young you try out a lot of things including netball, and I fell in love with the fact that it's a team sport."
Since then Shannen has never looked back.
She went for trials for the first time for the Stings team in 2017 and made the team in the same year. "I was selected for Centre and Wing Attack," she recalls. "However, I mostly play Centre."
Her first big milestone was being selected as one of the top 10 players at a SA Schools Championship tournament at the age of 13.
The second milestone was her selection into the u/18 SA team, followed by making it into the Southern Stings team in 2017.
She says that her decision to study at CPUT was influenced by the university's reputation as the biggest producer of teachers in the province and the way it motivates students to participate in sport.
"CPUT is extremely diverse; I've already gained valuable interpersonal relationships," adds Shennan. "CPUT rocks for me, because they are extremely accommodative with regards to my netball, which I highly appreciate!"
She predicts that South Africa will win the upcoming Vitality Netball Word Cup in Liverpool for the first time ever. "They're strong, in it to win it, and with the whole of South Africa backing them, there's no way they will let this one slip!"

Yoga Behind Bars
Gwendolyn Payton on teaching yoga to King County inmates
Published in 2021 Washington Super Lawyers magazine By Leslie Forsberg on July 15, 2021
For most people, Friday night is a time to relax or party. For Gwendolyn Payton, it's time to head from her high-rise office to the cinderblock King County Correctional Facility 10 blocks away. The Seattle litigator has spent 12 years teaching yoga to incarcerated men and women as a volunteer with the Washington nonprofit Yoga Behind Bars.
Her involvement in the program, which was put on hold during the COVID-19 pandemic, was sparked by a concern over the rise of incarceration in the U.S.
"Over years of reading, I became more deeply concerned about levels of incarceration and the disparate impacts on minorities and people without resources," says Payton, who was already a longtime yoga teacher. "It clicked: Not only do I have this calling, but I have the skills to do it."
For the inmates, yoga can help instill a sense of calm. "I observe that it gives a sense of realization that they have the ability to take control of their lives and change, if they so choose," she says.
It's a time-consuming commitment. It can take an hour just to get through all the doors, security, metal detectors, ID checks and check-ins with correctional officers. Then there's the yoga room: cold, harshly lit and grimy around the edges, with windows that look out onto a bustling hallway. Not exactly ideal.
For most of the students, wearing slippery nylon jumpsuits, it's their first exposure to yoga. Many are homeless, indigent, challenged by mental health problems, and often angry at a system that makes them feel insignificant and powerless.
"A lot of people there have been dealing with a massive lack of respect in life. I meet them where they are, and I try to do that with full respect," says Payton.
While she sometimes sees interest, connection and growth in her students, Payton has learned to wait and see. "The guy validating it for me may be good at that, but the guy fighting with me may be going through the most incredible transformation," she says. "If teachers get too oriented to results, it will burn them out."
When it's clear a student is struggling emotionally, Payton will sit by that person, breathing slowly, lending silent support.
"I've been told by the correctional officers that we make a material impact on the quality of evening after we've been there," says Payton.
The program wouldn't be successful without the support of the correctional officers. "[Some] could look at us as 'save-the-whale,' types," she says, "but when they observe what we do, observe our commitment and longevity, they turn around."
The yoga teachers, who are all volunteers, are another essential element. "They are the program," Payton says. As one of the longest-tenured teachers, she recruits and trains new teachers.
It's a sharp contrast to days spent defending class actions as a partner at Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton. The temporary suspension of the yoga program at King County's jail during COVID doesn't mean Payton has forgotten about inmates; she continues her pro bono work, focused on serving individuals facing death sentences. She's currently working on a Texas case involving a murder conviction against a Black man from Louisiana; she believes evidence was withheld.
And she's looking forward to the day she can resume her jail classes. "Yoga is a very powerful tool for transformation in people's lives," she says. "After every single class I walk out so grateful, so happy I've done it. It's a transformative process for me, too."

Laura Wasser on the last 20 years of family law and what might happen if Obergefell is overturned Featuring Laura A. Wasser


With Jon Favreau's 2016 live action Jungle Book featuring the vocal talents of Idris Elba, Scarlett Johansson and Bill Murray being a surprise success, Andy Serkis takes us back into the wild with his version of Mowgli's origin story.
The erstwhile motion-capture actor turned director has assembled a cast heaving with award winners with Cate Blanchett, Benedict Cumberbatch and Christian Bale all voicing the jungle cats and reptiles, it tells the tale of the conflict between Mowgli's human life and his empathy with the animal kingdom.
Darker and more serious than Favreau's unfailingly charming effort, Serkis focuses on the relationship between Mowgli and the human villagers including hunter John Lockwood (Matthew Rhys) giving it a sombre tone closer to the Kipling original than the much-loved Disney classic.
Based on Julie Murphy's best-selling novel, Dumplin' is the story of Willowdean Dickson (Danielle McDonald) a self-assured teen, comfortable in her own skin regardless of what her former beauty queen mother (Jennifer Aniston) sometimes thinks, who in a bid to test her body confidence after she embarks on a relationship with a local hunk, decides to enter her mother's beauty pageant. As other less pageant-conventional girls follow in her footsteps, her actions start a revolution in her small Texas town.
Directed by rom-com impresario Anne Fletcher (The Proposal, Set it Up) and with a soundtrack provided by Sia and Dolly Parton, Dumplin' is the sweeter side of beauty queen comedies such as the blisteringly brilliant Drop Dead Gorgeous and Little Miss Sunshine. It's a down-home slice of cinematic apple pie goodness that the holidays were made for.
If you're feeling embarrassed by your own culinary efforts among the Enid Blyton perfection of Bake Off creations, this Christmas, take comfort in Netflix alternative baking show Nailed It! – this celebrates the truly average of home-cooks. The awful cakes and battered buns take centre stage in this seasonal special as contestants compete against each other to win $10,000.
Forget Kirstie and her handmade pearl encrusted place-cards or Jamie and Nigella with their trussed up turkeys, Nailed It! epitomises the true spirit of Christmas. An ordinary Christmas, like the confections presented by the amatuer bakers, is one that never matches the fantastical ideal – it's everyone a bit frayed around the edges just trying their best to make something that doesn't poison everyone. It's not a time for fussing over frou-frou millefeuille or worrying about the origins of the brussel sprouts. Nailed It! unifies us in our limited capabilities and says it's okay to be a bit crap, which is sometimes the reassurance we need in this season of superficial smugness.
A fascinating look into the curious appeal and lives of social media superstars and reality celebrities such as Paris Hilton, Josh Ostrovsky (AKA The Fat Jew) and party-boy Kirill Bichutsky, the documentary The American Meme puts Warhol's United States of Celebrity under the microscope. Showing the endless rat-race involved in providing controversial content and gossip-worthy drama mined from their lives to keep the circus going, it proves that only the hardened and true fame-hungry wannabes will survive.
Exploring the attraction and popularity of this cultural debasement, (the idea of those who are "famous for being famous"), it examines the schism in modern celebrity, those in the higher echelons who refuse to take part in the daily media grind and those who are more than willing to sell their souls (and everything else) to the highest bidder.
Netflix are pinning all their Academy Award hopes for 2019 on Alfonso Cuarón's semi-autobiographical black and white, Spanish language tribute to his childhood nanny. Hailed as a masterpiece by critics since it debuted at the Venice film festival earlier this year, it follows the daily life of Cleo (Yalitza Aparicio) as she raises her boss's four children in middle-class Mexico. Starring unknown actors and with a story that relies heavily on meaningful silences and stream-of-conscious scripting, it will be interesting to see if something that is so perfectly created for the rapt concentration of the art house cinema transfers to the smaller screen and the distracting ways in which we now consume film and television. As Netflix keeps its viewing figures under wraps, it will be difficult to ascertain if the slow0moving drama ends up being a smash hit.
With Netflix shoring up auteur talent in a bid to become a serious contender within Hollywood, gaining kudos for providing compelling work from diverse talents including Dee Rees with Mudbound, the Coen Brothers Ballad of Buster Scruggs to Kathryn Hahn's astonishingly stirring performance in Tamara Jenkins's Private Life, the streaming service is now striving for critical acclaim not just bank-busting viewing numbers.
Armchair detectives can settle in for some festive binging as a new winter true-crime obsession is born. The Innocent Man is based on the bestselling non-fiction book by John Grisham which detailed the shocking murders that unsettled the small town of Ada, Oklahoma in the 1980s. As with Netflix's Making a Murderer, The Innocent Man is as much a critique of the American justice system as it is a true-crime documentary. Following the controversial conclusions of the trial, it uses archival footage and interviews with family members and friends to re-examine the case and the troubling aspects of the law enforcement procedures.
Some might say that Springsteen is a kind of a gruff-talking Santa for grown men and women. This year he's spreading some cheer by giving Netflix exclusive access to his one man show, cleverly titled Springsteen on Broadway (although the Boss on Broadway may have been more alliteratively pleasing) where he strums some tunes and talks openly and emotionally about his inspirations and life as one of the great American storytellers.
Since the success of Get Out and A Quiet Place, dystopian thrillers have captured an elusive market: films that manage to be blockbuster success stories as well as a critical sensations. Bird Box attempts to muscle in on this territory as another grim post-apocalyptic horror story. Starring Sandra Bullock as pregnant mother Malorie who must protect her family from the strange supernatural beings that have infiltrated the Earth and set about destroying the population. These creatures (who remain unseen) cause human eyes to glaze over before insanity and suicidal tendencies take hold. Malorie's story is untangled through flashbacks of an abandoned house that's populated by several unpredictable strangers, including John Malkovich as an eccentric alcoholic, as well as rapper Machine Gun Kelly giving a menacing tattooed turn.The all-star cast also includes Sarah Paulson as Malorie's sister and the always engaging Jackie Weaver.
An Australian import, Back With the Ex is a reality series that reunites four former couples to see if sparks can reignite and romance can blossom after the dust has settled on a relationship. The intriguing concept has more of the sensitivity of First Dates rather than its tawdry, tanned and tattooed cousin, MTV's Ex on the Beach. It endeavours to reconnect genuine couples and not just create more reality stars for tabloid consumption.
Not that it's a dry social experiment either, the series sees the couples move into each other's homes and face the wrath of their former flames' families and also divulge their darkest secrets of their singledom to each other before making the decision of whether or not to reunite for good.
The trashiest of treats to save for some guilt-free Christmas viewing, You is a thriller in the vein of such kitsch classics as Mother, May I Sleep with Danger and early Reese Witherspoon effort Fear. Starring Gossip Girl's Penn Badgley as Joe, a creepy tech-savvy bookstore owner who uses the object of his affection's social media to infiltrate her life while gleaning information on her in an attempt to become her ideal man. So far, so Tinder, but as Joe's lust intensifies, turning into an obsession, things become more chilling, as if sliding into someone's DMs wasn't terrifying enough.


It's late January, how are your New Year's Resolutions going?
Now is the time when we often fall away from the things we started this year. We have to say, over here at Youth Ministry Sherpas, we are doing pretty well. Mathew has been drinking enough water to fill a small pond and create an impressive level of bladder control. Steve has been in his new hot tub nearly every evening, winding down the day with his wife. He's hydrating his soul, if not his skin.
In this episode of Youth Ministry Sherpas, we wrap up our three-part "mini-series" called "Burning Out, Falling Down, Drying Up" with a conversation about how to stay hydrated in student ministry. How do we avoid becoming spiritually dry and brittle, ready to crumble at any moment? How can we avoid becoming kindling for ministry trouble and spiritual danger? There are some simple practical steps we can take–as well as some deeper spiritual rhythms–that we recommend to keep us fresher than a rapper's new wardrobe or a high mountain stream.
By the way, don't embarrass your friends by bringing Diet Coke into Pepsi-only restaurants. Sheesh. Some people!

Acne Board Index: My Regime to Keep me clear!
My Regime to Keep me clear!
After 3months off accutane i was still getting breakouts. so two weeks ago i started this regime and it has helped me alot. now my acne is very mild.
2. I use Mayerling Forte. it is bought at David Jones retail outlet. It is very expensive though. but the most important ingredient i think is the Glycolic Acid. Maybe find a similar product.
The Forte Day Cream contains oil soluble Salicylic Acid and water soluble Glycolic Acid giving it a two-phase exfoliating action. The Melfade in the Day Cream gives it a lightening action while the skin exfoliates. The Forte Night Cream lightens with Bearberry Extract and Retinyl Palmitate while it exfoliates with Glycolic Acid. This double action gives this paired product an accelerated effect over the standard Day & Night Cream.

5. Compensation for delayed flights
Cancellation rights are regulated by the European Community Regulation EC 261/2004. This law sets the compensation that passengers are entitled to if they're denied boarding or if their flight is cancelled or delayed. Its purpose is to ensure high levels of protection for air passengers, who can experience serious inconvenience when problems happen.
The regulation applies to flights:
departing from a European airport on any airline; or
arriving at a European airport on a European airline.
For this purpose, 'European' includes countries in the EU, European Economic Area and European Free Trade area, which includes Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland.
For information on flights that fall outside of EU law, see Cancellations and delays outside EU regulations.
Rights for all passengers whose flight is cancelled
You'll automatically be entitled to either:
Rerouting to the same destination at the earliest opportunity using comparable transport
Rerouting to the same destination at a later date and at your convenience, using comparable transport
A refund (payable within 7 days) of the full price of the ticket including any unused tickets for parts of the journey that weren't made and any tickets that have been used (if the flight no longer served any purpose due to your original travel plans) AND a flight back to your original departure point (if relevant)
If you choose to be rerouted
If you choose to be rerouted, you'll be entitled to find out details of possible alternative transport and, potentially, compensation (see below).
If the airline offers you to be rerouted on a flight from a different airport, it must pay the cost of transporting you there.
The airline must also provide the following help, free of charge, while you wait to be rerouted:
2 free telephone calls, emails, faxes or telex messages
Food and drink reasonably related to the waiting time
Where necessary, overnight accommodation, such as a hotel
Transport between the airport and the place of accommodation (hotel or other)
If the airline doesn't do this, you're entitled to claim an amount that is appropriate and reasonable for the costs you've incurred. You should keep all your receipts.
Note that the airline won't have to provide these if you choose to be rerouted on a different day.
Qualifying for compensation
As well as a replacement flight or refund, you might also be entitled to compensation. This depends on a combination of:
How long before your departure the airline told you of the cancellation;
If you're offered another flight, the time difference between the new departure and arrival times; and
The original scheduled times of your cancelled flight.
You may be entitled to compensation unless you're told about the cancellation within one of the following timeframes:
At least 2 weeks before the scheduled departure time;
Between one and 2 weeks before the scheduled departure time, and you're offered another flight that departs no more than 2 hours before the original departure time and arrives less than 4 hours after the original arrival time (i.e. a maximum potential time loss of 6 hours); or
Less than one week before the scheduled departure time, and you're offered another flight that departs no more than one hour before the original departure time and arrives less than 2 hours after the original arrival time (i.e. a potential time loss of no more than 3 hours).
The airline isn't obliged to pay compensation if it can prove that the cancellation was caused by 'extraordinary circumstances' that couldn't have been avoided, such as bad weather conditions or security risks. 'Extraordinary circumstances' don't include technical problems that are not out of the ordinary and are normally associated with the aircraft and are also unlikely to apply if the flight is cancelled because the crew are unavailable.
Compensation limits
Table 1 - where you haven't agreed to be rerouted
Length of journey
1,500 km or less
More than 1,500 km (flights between EU countries)
1,500 km to 3,500 km (flights not between EU countries
More than 3,500 km
Table 2 - where you have agreed to be rerouted
If you've agreed to be rerouted, you'll be entitled to the compensation outlined in the table above, unless the delay to your arrival time is within certain limits (see below). In that case, the compensation is halved.
Hours over original scheduled arrival time
Compensation if arrival is within the time limit
Up to 2 hours
More than 3,500 km (all other flights)
Passengers will also be protected by the Consumer Rights Act if the service they receive is not provided with reasonable care and skill. This includes airline services that are cancelled.
Airline operators who provide a poor service are liable to pay compensation under the Act. The compensation claimable includes the cost of the ticket as well as other losses that you may have incurred due to poor service, such as having to pay more for the same journey because you missed a connecting flight. You will need to prove your loss and that you kept resulting costs to a minimum. The airline operator cannot exclude or limit the amount you can recover to less than the ticket price.
Compensation for delayed flights
If a flight is delayed by 3 or more hours, you'll be entitled to claim compensation. But this won't be the case if the delay was outside of the airline's control.
For information on delayed flights, see Delays: rights under EU regulations and Cancellations and delays outside EU regulations.

Are Sea Turtles Endangered?
Ranging from 100 pounds to over 1,000 pounds, you can find a great variety of species of sea turtles all over the world. Whether they're in the ocean or nesting on sandy beaches, these sizable reptiles play a crucial role in our oceans.
While sea turtles are known for their long, streamlined shell, the wide range of sea turtle species features turtles of different sizes, colors, and more.
Throughout oceans around the globe live seven different species of sea turtles. These include:
Kemp's Ridley
Sea turtles have been around and remained virtually unchanged for over 110 million years. However, over the past 200 years, changes in the sea turtles' environment have threatened their continued survival.
So are sea turtles endangered?
Recent human activities have caused significant damages to sea turtle populations and their environment. As a result, nearly every sea turtle species are now considered endangered or threatened.
Sea Turtle Conservation Status
The conservation status of sea turtle species varies depending on where you look, and most organizations agree worldwide that sea turtle species are endangered, threatened, or vulnerable.
Despite every species facing significant environmental threats, some sea turtle populations are significantly more critically endangered than others.
According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species, both Kemp's Ridley and Hawksbill Turtles are critically endangered, meaning they face a significant threat of extinction globally.
Green Turtles are also facing extinction according to the endangered classification from the IUCN. Leatherback Turtles, Loggerhead Turtles, and Olive Ridley living in the wild are also vulnerable.
The population of sea turtles is in decline, and significant conservation efforts are undertaken to control factors that endanger their health and habitats.
Sea turtles are protected under the United States Endangered Species Act of 1973 and the Florida Marine Turtle Protection Act.
These statutes outline recovery and conservation plans for sea turtle populations and prohibit various human-caused threats to their environment, including possession, sale, or destruction of sea turtles, nests, or their eggs.
The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) also works to eliminate harmful human practices that threaten sea turtle habitats and populations.
Their main goals include eliminating turtle bycatch, combating illegal trade, establishing marine protected areas, and monitoring and protecting turtle nests.
Why Are Sea Turtles Endangered?
While sea turtles have been around for millions of years, recent practices along the shoreline have significantly contributed to their declining populations and current status as an endangered and vulnerable group of marine animals.
Some of the most notable factors driving the endangerment of sea turtles include unsafe fishing practices, pollution, coastal development, climate change, and illegal trade and harvesting.
One of the most significant threats to sea turtles is bycatch from fisheries. Incidental capture while fishing is common all over the world.
Nearly 40% of the sea creatures caught in fishing gear are done so unintentionally and are killed or released back into their environment injured.
Sea turtles are easily entangled in trawls or hooked by longlines, which results in critical harm to these turtles worldwide.
Trawls are known to capture 20 pounds of bycatch for every pound of their intended species, causing grave destruction for endangered sea turtle species.
Not only can sea turtles get stuck in nets or on longlines, but any discarded fishing gear can also cause considerable damage.
Turtles can become entangled quickly by this lost gear, causing them to drown or become injured. Plastic is also easily mistaken for food by sea turtles and can cause them to choke or sustain internal injuries.
And this issue might be even more common than you think – one study found that around 52% of sea turtles throughout the world have eaten debris.
Other forms of pollution, such as light pollution and chemical pollution, have also been known to disrupt nesting behaviors, weaken immune systems, and create even more obstacles for sea turtles and hatchlings.
Coastal Development & Dredging
Habitat destruction is a major threat to sea turtles today, which is made worse by continual coastal development and dredging of the seafloor.
Uncontrolled development along the shoreline poses critical threats to nesting female sea turtles on beaches. Alterations and construction on the beach can change the properties of the sand and create barriers to building nesting sites.
Development can lead to more beach-going vehicles and traffic, creating coastal degradation and changes to the sand that disturb sea turtle nests.
This development can also create significant obstacles for young sea turtles as they make their way to the ocean.
Dredging on the seafloor is also responsible for habitat destruction, removing crucial structures, food sources, and habitats that marine life depend on for survival.
As climate change poses more and more of a threat to marine life, sea turtles face several obstacles to their survival.
Rising water levels and the increase in extreme weather and storms can destroy crucial nesting spots along the coastline.
Even the rising temperature of sand on the beach can contribute to sea turtle's endangerment, causing a shortage of male hatchlings.
Warming ocean temperatures also cause significant damage to coral reefs and other ecosystems that sea turtles depend on for food.
And with more severe storms and changes to the water surface and environment, sea turtles will experience consequential disruptions to their habitats and foraging grounds.
Illegal Trade & Harvesting
Sea Turtles and their eggs, are considered a source of food and are often illegally harvested for consumption or enrichment.
Along with food, Sea Turtles and their eggs are also often killed and used to create items such as jewelry, leather products, medicine, or other souvenirs.
One of the biggest markets in illegal trade is shell harvesting. Hawksbill Sea Turtles have stunning gold, brown, and orange shells considered highly luxurious and desirable.
These shells are used to make jewelry and other trinkets, causing even more hunting among an already critically endangered sea turtle species.
How Can We Help Sea Turtle Populations?
With all of the human-driven threats to sea turtles today, many conservation groups have stepped up their efforts to prevent further endangerment of these marine creatures.
The WWF has laid out several objectives aimed to address these threats. This group is working to prevent some of the most common hazards caused by humans, like the implementation of more turtle-friendly fishery practices, innovative fishing gear to reduce bycatch, and advocacy of legislation that protects habitats.
Despite the persistent trade and harvesting of sea turtles, there have been steps taken to limit this illegal overharvesting on an international scale.
The Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) lists all seven species of sea turtles as endangered and therefore prohibits any international commercial trade of sea turtles that is threatening their extinction.
As large conservation organizations work to protect these species in the long run, there are also plenty of ways you can help sea turtle populations.
Long-term efforts include advocating against the destruction of their habitat, supporting legislation centered around conservation efforts and climate change, and raising awareness of these challenges.
In the short term, even reducing plastic and debris that often ends up in the ocean can have a great positive impact and help prevent pollution that harms sea turtles.
While sea turtles have survived since the dinosaurs walked the earth, recent human activities threaten their continued survival in our oceans.
Climate change, pollution, fishery bycatch, and more have generated highly impactful environmental damages that have pushed nearly every species of sea turtle to the endangered or critically endangered list.
Sea turtles play a crucial role in the health of marine ecosystems, which are put at risk by the decline of sea turtle populations throughout the world. Luckily, many short-term and long-term conservation efforts center around protecting sea turtles.
Whether they present initiatives from an individual, conservation group, or governmental legislation, these recovery plans and actions are crucial in rebuilding the sea turtle population and preventing extinction.

Moon Women (Paperback)
By Pamela Duncan
In the lush North Carolina foothills, the Moon women have put down roots: matriarch Marvelle Moon, who's losing her grip on the world after more than eighty years of life; her daughters, Ruth Ann and Cassandra; and Ruth Ann's nineteen-year-old daughter, Ashley, fresh out of rehab, unmarried, and three months pregnant. Despite Ruth Ann's best efforts to live a life that's all her own, her family is coming together around her. Marvelle and Ashley need a place to live and Ruth Ann is unable to turn them away; and her womanizing ex-husband has been coming around again, dredging up the past. Now a flurry of outbursts, emotions, and outrages is shattering Ruth Ann's separate peace.
For here is Ashley, who has spent nineteen years running furiously away from home, now finding herself on a strange journey with her unraveling grandmother. And here is Cassandra, protected by layers of obesity and loneliness, wondering how to put magic back in her life. And Marvelle, slowly losing touch with reality, privately contemplating the story of her life and the secret that would change everything for everyone—if they only knew.... By turns fierce and tender, harrowing and heartbreaking, Moon Women resonates with emotional power, holding us captive under its beguiling spell.
Pamela Duncan was born in Asheville in 1961 and raised in Black Mountain, Swannanoa, and Shelby, North Carolina. She holds a B.A. in journalism from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and an M.A. in English and creative writing from North Carolina Sate University in Raleigh. She lives in Graham, North Carolina.

Good choices all! I'd add "Murder by Numbers" (which was never formally released to my knowledge) and "Bombs Away" also from the Zenyatta album. Cheers!
Please consider adding youtube or other links to the songs. I could easily explore songs from the artists I'm not as familiar with and regale in the songs from ones I am familiar with.

Richard Bacon Net Worth: Good Morning Britain Host' Scandal
by Seher Mir
Richard Bacon
The English presenter Richard Paul Bacon has been in news recently over the Good Morning Britain Drug Scandal and his early exit from the show. The prime purpose of this piece is to delve into what controversy hit Richard Bacon, why was he removed from the Good Morning Britain franchise, and how much money did he accumulate all these years, i.e. what his net worth really is. But before all of that, our audiences should get an idea of who Richard Bacon is.
The English television and radio presenter was born on 30 November 1975. He worked as a reporter and a presenter for various networks across various spectrums but mostly sticking to morning shows. Richard was a presenter on The Big Breakfast and on ITV's mega-hit morning segment, Good Morning Britain. He also acted as a stand-in presenter on the latter and on radio stations in the United Kingdom such as Capital FM, Xfm London, and BBC Radio Five Live. Richard was going well and doing well for himself, especially after 2016 when he became the presenter of The National Geographic Channel's redo of its famous documentary and/or panel discussion TV series, named Explorer.
Richard Paul: Early Life
Richard Paul was born in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire. He's had a privileged upbringing since his early childhood and went on to attend a bunch of prep schools in and around the United Kingdom, but mostly sticking to the United Kingdom. Richard attended the preparatory school on Newark Road situated in the village of Wellow and then later enrolled at Worksop College. He was then a Business Studies with Electronics at Nottingham Trent University but couldn't continue his studies because he wanted to chase his passion for TV reporting and presentation.

Richard Bacon: prematurely sacked from Good Morning Britain.
Richard Paul Bacon: Why Was He Sacked?
Despite having an illustrious career at such an age, Richard Paul was sacked off from being the presenter of the children's show named Blue Peter because of illicit drug abuse. His actual TV break in 1997 on ITV's network came with the show the children's show Blue Peter, in which he played the chief presenter. Thereafter Rochard became a global figure in the reporting industry and was also well-known amongst his peers. He used to present the show alongside the likes of Romana D'Annunzio, Katy Hill, Konnie Huq, and Stuart Miles. His career came to an abrupt end later on 19 October 1998, and he became Blue Peter's first-ever host to have his contract terminated in mid-season. He was also required to turn in his Blue Peter Badge after his dismissal.
Richard's career survived the setbacks.
The controversy that hit him was that the London tabloid newspaper News of the World published a report of him taking cocaine. He was thereafter sacked for illicit drug use, and his tenure with Blue Peter just lasted 18 months in all. The head of the BBC's children's program, Lorraine Heggessey, then went on to describe Richard's exit from the show, calling it a sorry state of affairs for the network.

Richard Paul Bacon Net Worth
Richard Paul's net worth is just $5 million as we speak, and it's chiefly because of the sudden end of his career and the termination of his contract thereof. Nevertheless, his career survived the major drug scandal setback, and he came clean. Thereafter he was hired to do The Big Breakfast, Top of the Pops, and many more reality TV shows such as Back To Reality and Castaway Exposed. He once again became the subject of controversy in August of 2005, when the band The Magic Numbers of Top of the Pops staged a walkout after he made a remark that criticized their body shape. During the rehearsals, he had called the body size and shape of members of the band a "big, fat-melting pot of talent". The controversy relegated him to obscurity yet again, but he bounced back.
Though Richard's career has been somewhat tumultuous, he has always bounced back. He did BBC Three's series Most Annoying People, guest-starred various TV show's on BBC, such as Channel 5's The Wright Stuff and BBC Two's Something for the Weekend.
