We started recording /dev/hell because we thought it would be fun. We wanted it to sound decent, but we didn't want to work hard at making that happen, because we are lazy. And cheap.
I've had some experience with indie audio production, so I know a few things about making stuff sound better than it should. That, and a lot of stuff I've picked up on the way, has helped make /dev/hell sound semi-decent on a very, very small budget.
In this series of articles, I'll detail the hardware, software, and processes we use when we record /dev/hell. If you're thinking about making your own podcasts, this will get you started with a minimum amount of cash and a maximum amount of awesome.
All of the /dev/hell podcasts are recordings of voice chats between Chris and me, plus any guests who happen to be with us. This is actually a lot easier than recording in person, and lets us optimize a lot in terms of hardware and software expense. We record with pretty cheap hardware and software, and do a bit more post-production work to make stuff sound decent.
Note that we do all our podcasting work on OS X, so hardware and software have only been tested there. Most of what we discuss should work with Windows, but I'm not sure about Linux support.
I use a Logitech H555 headset to record on my side. It's also my go-to headset for any voice chat. My speech sounds clear and intelligible through it, and it does a pretty good job of cancelling out ambient noise. It's USB and wired, so I don't have issues with connectivity there, and it has a physical mute switch, which is really handy when you have to cough or throw up. It's not the cheapest headset you can find, but for the price, the voice fidelity is very good. The only significant issue I've found is that the mic will pick up the sound from the headphones if I have it really turned up, but I can mitigate that with a noise gate in post-production. I've carried this thing all around the country, and it has consistently Just Worked as soon as I plug it in.
Alternately, you might check out the Logitech USB Headset H530, which is similar, but looks like it would be a bit more comfortable (but less portable).
I have messed some with bluetooth headsets and ear pieces, and they all have sucked. Constant pairing issues, audio quality problems, and battery drain. You don't want to mess with this stuff just before you're scheduled to record, let alone have it die in the middle of a sesson.
I also avoid any cheap stuff that plugs into the 1/8" analog inputs on my computer, particularly microphones. That stuff is almost always garbage – poor quality, prone to clipping and picking up hums and noise. Don't do it.
You can get better quality mics than my headset has, but it also introduces a lot more hassle and expense. Decent-quality USB mics are going to run you at least $60, and they tie you to a desk or mic stand. If you want to have more flexibility, you can get XLR mics (I have a Shure SM-58), but then you'll also need an outboard audio interface and mixer – more equipment to tie you down, and now we're getting into at least a few hundred dollars in hardware.
If you do get a separate mic, I'd recommend a dynamic mic, especially if you're only recording yourself talking on Skype. Chris is currently using a Blue Yeti condenser mic, and it picks up tons of ambient noise in the room. Condensers are great for doing in-person interviews where you just drop the mic on a table between everybody, but they're not well-suited for for voice chat. You'll end up muting yourself any time you're not talking, and spending time in post-production editing out squeaky chairs and keyboard typing.
We use Skype to talk to each other. It has the best audio quality of all the voice chat options I've tried, and it's free and available on all major desktop platforms. It's not perfect, but it's the best option available.
To record our Skype conversations, I recommend Call Recorder, a $20 add-on to Skype for Windows and OS X. The biggest win with Call Recorder is its ability to split the two sides of your conversation intp separate tracks, so you can process and edit them separately in post-production. It also has a simple, easy to use interface. There's a 15-day fully functional trial, so it should work okay for one-off guests who don't want to drop $20 just to be on your show.
We've also used Audio Hijack Pro, a $32 application for OS X. AHP is much more flexible than Call Recorder: it can record any audio being generated by any application in OS X, do timed recordings, and lots of other cool stuff. It also can separate Skype conversations into the left and right sides of a stereo track, so you can treat them separately in post-production. But, being a significantly more complex application than Call Recorder, it's also easier to screw stuff up, which I've done a few times.
Before you do any recording, use the Skype test call feature to record yourself speaking as you would in the session. Have a paragraph of text handy and recite it into the call. Alternately, call up your co-host and just shoot the breeze for a few minutes, recording it with Call Recorder. Listen to the recording, make note of issues, and address accordingly.
All the session participants should be in a quiet area where they won't get visitors and don't get a lot of echo (carpeted areas are better in this regard). I always record in a big recliner in the corner of the living room with my laptop on my lap, and always wait until 9pm so the Kinder are in bed. Let folks in your home know that you'll be recording, so they don't bug you about stuff in the middle of the session.
If you're the person who will be doing post-production, have a notepad handy – physical or virtual – to write down possible edit spots. If you hear a big glitch/slip-up/disconnection/meltdown, it is much easier to find it if you have written down the time it happened. Listening through your entire podcast to find it will be extremely tedious, especially if you tend to ramble like we do.
About 10 minutes before you're scheduled to record, get everyone on the Skype call. This should allow you to hear potential issues and try to address them before you start recording, like excessive background noise or bandwidth problems.
One thing I recommend is that you get people to record on a computer that's connected via wired ethernet. WiFi gets really flakey, and can cause glitches in Skype that you wouldn't anticipate. This is particularly problematic in more densely populated areas. You may not have much issue – I'm lucky in that my WiFi is very fast and consistent – but it's definitely safer to be wired. If you're not able to connect directly, at least sit where you have good, consistent WiFi reception, and don't move.
When you're ready to start the podcast, the easiest thing to do is just have one person record using one of the above applications. This works okay if everyone involved has a very solid Internet connection and local network. The more people you have on the call, though, the more problems you're likely to have.
Note: normally you never want to record with "lossy" compression like AAC or MP3. But because we're recording speech, and our final format is relatively low-fidelity (64kbps mono MP3), I don't think there's any perceptible advantage. It's fine to record compressed files, though, and would be a good idea if you're striving for the best possible fidelity.
When you're done, have everyone upload their recordings in a shared space so you can grab them. A shared Dropbox folder has worked well for us.
Note that you won't be able to magically sync up all your recordings. You can and should try to start recording all at the same time (a little bit before you actually start the podcast), but you'll have to manually line stuff up in post-production.
That's it for recording. Next time we'll cover post-production, where you turn your separate audio tracks into something worth hearing.

Detroit rookie Jamal Agnew returned a punt 88 yards for a fourth-quarter touchdown, and Matthew Stafford threw two touchdown passes to help the Lions earn a 24-10 win over New York Monday night at Met Life Stadium.
The touchdown gave the Lions (2-0) a 14-point lead.
Stafford finished 15 of 21 for 122 yards with no interceptions.
The Giants, who have now gone eight consecutive games scoring fewer than 20 points, got a third-quarter, 25-yard field goal by kicker Aldrick Rosas, cutting the deficit to 17-10 .
Receiver Brandon Marshall, who had his man beat on a long pass that would have put the Giants deep into Lions territory, dropped the ball. After the Giants failed to extend that drive, Agnew scored his punt-return touchdown.
Stafford, who was 12 of 17 for 107 yards at the half, connected with tight end Eric Ebron on a 7-yard touchdown pass in the second quarter.

Obama is Right: The Gulf Arabs Ride Free on Terrorism
April 26, 2016 Topic: Security Region: Middle East Tags: Saudi ArabiaQatarBahrainUnited Arab EmiratesTerrorism
Saudi Arabia and its neighbors are breaking their counterterrorism promises.
by David Andrew Weinberg
President Obama missed the last real opportunity of his administration to urge the Arab Gulf monarchies to finally adopt a no-tolerance rule toward all terrorist groups and to end the inexcusable impunity of terror financiers in their territory. Rather than calling out how certain Gulf states have failed to honor their commitments in this regard, President Obama used language that patted them on the back for half measures during his visit to Riyadh last Thursday for a Gulf leadership summit.
Back in September 2014, just before the start of international airstrikes against Islamic State in Syria, the United States released a document called the Jeddah Communiqué. In it, the State Department announced that the Gulf monarchs and several other Arab allies of the United States had committed to "countering financing of ISIL and other violent extremists, repudiating their hateful ideology, ending impunity and bringing perpetrators to justice." And just this past week, the United States and the Gulf Cooperation Council reiterated their "shared commitment to defeat terrorism in all its forms."
So how have the GCC states actually fared, compared to their promises? Well, if you listen to President Obama this week, they've already succeeded. He bragged to the press in Riyadh on Thursday that "during the course of our administration, the GCC states have extensively cooperated with us on counterterrorism" and "on curbing the financing of terrorist activities." The summit's joint communiqué said the United States "commended" the Gulf states for their "rigorous efforts. . . to prevent terrorist attacks," including their efforts to "counter violent extremism."
Yet as I testified last year before Congress, Gulf rulers continue to embrace preachers of religious intolerance—most notably in Saudi Arabia and Qatar, but also in Bahrain, Kuwait and Dubai of the United Arab Emirates. Many Gulf governments have also failed to consistently outlaw major terrorist organizations and take legal action against internationally designated funders of terrorism on their territory.
Indeed, the Gulf region stands at the intersection of two powerful and pivotal trends: fundamentalist ideological currents and enormous wealth from oil and natural gas. That confluence allegedly makes it a top source—some have argued the top source—of private donations to certain menacing terrorist organizations such as Al Qaeda, the Taliban, Lashkar-e-Taiba and Hamas.
Official sources told me earlier this year that Kuwait has yet to convict—or even indict on terror-finance charges—a single one of the ten or so living Kuwaiti nationals and residents who are subject to terror-finance sanctions by the United States and United Nations. They also indicated that one or two of the men may still be employed at Kuwait's flagship state university, and the local press has reported that one sanctioned Kuwaiti has also been given his mosque pulpit back by order of the state.
In Qatar, there is reason to believe circumstances are more or less the same. In 2014, a top Treasury official called both countries "permissive jurisdictions" for terrorist finance, an ignominious appellation that the U.S. government has yet to walk back. That official also called out Qatar for granting legal impunity to citizens in its territory under U.S. and UN sanctions on charges of terror finance.
Last month, Qatar proclaimed that U.S. Treasury Secretary Jack Lew expressed appreciation for Qatar's "efforts. . . in the prosecution of financiers of terrorism." But "efforts" to prosecute do not necessarily mean that actual indictments have been filed, that indictments have targeted most of the key individuals on U.S. or UN terror finance lists, that those individuals are now behind bars or that lasting convictions have been achieved. And I can find no publicly available evidence to suggest otherwise.
Additionally, when the United States sanctioned two Qatar-based individuals on charges of funding Al Qaeda last year, a U.S. official reportedly told the press that Qatar had yet to arrest the two men and that "there continues to be concerns about terrorist financing going on in Qatar."
This month Bahrain followed in the 2014 footsteps of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates by issuing a formal list of banned terrorist organizations. Notably, they each banned some or all branches of Iran's terrorist proxy Hezbollah. But in all three cases, these lists also displayed serious omissions.
Hamas was left off of all three designation lists, as were all other terrorist organizations that primarily target Israeli civilians, such as Palestinian Islamic Jihad and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. It is worth recalling that senior Hamas officials, including U.S.-designated individuals, routinely are allowed to visit or operate out of Qatar. And last year Treasury called Saudi Arabia "the largest center of Hamas's financial activity" abroad.
The Bahraini and Emirati lists, both which were released since the Jeddah Communiqué, did ban the Pakistani Taliban. But inexplicably, not a single one of these three Gulf lists banned the Taliban's most important branch—its Afghan one—or its offshoot in Pakistan, the Haqqani Network. That omission sends a particularly worrisome signal, given that a leaked memo from Obama's first term asserted that private donations from the Gulf—and not the infamous Afghan drug trade—comprised the primary source of Taliban financing.
Indeed, much ink has been spilled on Qatar's decision to host five senior Taliban officials who were released from Guantánamo in exchange for one of the Taliban's U.S. hostages, Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl. But it is also worth noting that the popular podcast Serial revealed just this January as part of its investigation into Bergdahl's case that a reporter "did an interview for us in Dubai with a high-level Taliban guy there."
With the exception of providing real estate for basing American bombers, the Gulf states are playing a negligible role in the air war against Islamic State. Several of them—Oman, Kuwait and probably Qatar—have declined to drop even a single bomb against the group. Similarly, the Saudi-led coalition in Yemen has irresponsibly allowed Al Qaeda's most dangerous branch, Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, to flourish, and is only now beginning to conduct meaningful air strikes against the group.
It is encouraging to see that coalition finally press Al Qaeda to abandon Al Mukalla, the capital of Yemen's largest province, on Monday. However, judging by figures from Reuters, the group probably extracted hundreds of millions of dollars during the year in which it controlled that city uncontested.
Iona Craig, a freelance reporter in Yemen, reports that many of the AQAP fighters who just retreated from Al Mukalla instead made their way to the Yemeni province of al-Bayda. According to the U.S. Treasury, a Yemeni who reportedly once acted as AQAP's emir in al-Bayda was Abdel Wahab al-Humayqani, whom the United States declared a Specially Designated Global Terrorist in 2013. In 2015, Humayqani conducted media interviews from Riyadh and was even hosted in the studio as a guest of Saudi state TV.
While the communiqué from last Thursday's summit included some blandishments about being opposed to Al Qaeda's local affiliates in Syria and Yemen, participants announced little in the way of specific new commitments as to how they would eliminate this significant threat, which has shown itself capable of grisly international attacks even from limited safe havens in the countryside. Indeed, the Riyadh summit was so low on explicit new counterterrorism commitments that, as the New York Times put it, the gathering ended "without announcing any concrete new plans or initiatives."
President Obama suggested last month in his controversial Atlantic interview that he views GCC rulers as "free riders" in the fight against terrorism. Regardless of whether or not he muddled the message in Riyadh, the Arab Gulf monarchs are doing a poor job of proving that assertion wrong.

a little of this...: Clocks.
I found this clock the other day. I thought it was super cute and would be fun for the kid's bathroom or playroom.
Seriously, you wouldn't believe it. I thought, Target worthy... $30 max.
Oh no, my friend. Try $335.
Anyway, I decided to check out other clocks and see if I could find something a little more reasonable.
There are some smart ideas out there!


HISTORY: AB AEROTRANSPORT (ABA), was a Swedish airline, was established in 1924 under the name Aktiebolaget Aerotransport. In 1939 ABA started to mark their aircraft with Swedish Air Lines. In June 1948, after a Swedish report, the government-owned ABA and privately owned SILA were merged on a 50-50 basis, to form a new airline named ABA. On October 1, 1950, representatives from the three airlines signed a consortium agreement where they appointed SAS to run the airline operations and the three national airline only to be holding companies.


The term Scots-Irish describes Protestant Irish of Scottish ancestry who lived in Ireland distinguishing them from the Irish Catholics. push and pull factors of Scots-Irish Migration are dictated by economic, political, environmental and social reasons. Discover specific events in the history of Ireland that prompted Scots-Irish people to leave their homes to start a new life in America.
The following chart provides facts and information about some specific examples of Push and Pull factors of Scots-Irish Migration to America.
Economic Factor: In 1632 the Linen Trade started in America when Scots-Irish traveled to on the linen trade merchant ships to Philadelphia. was the main destination port of the linen trade route and the first immigrants settled in the town.
The first Scots-Irish immigrants looked for new opportunities in the linen trade and then introduced flax growing in New England.
Environmental Factor: The Irish Famine of 1740 - 1741 hit Ireland due to freezing temperatures and the Great Frost that wiped out 38% of the population in Ireland.
Levels of Scots-Irish emigration substantially increased due to this dreadful event.
Political and Economic Factors: In 1745 plots of land in the 'Backcountry' (the Blue Ridge mountains and Appalachian regions of America) were sold to other Scots-Irish by Colonel James Patten.
Economic Factor: The First Industrial Revolution during the early 1800's resulted in a boom in American industry that required cheap, unskilled labor.
Scots-Irish migrants moved to America looking for new employment opportunities, increased wealth and a better standard of living.
Environmental Factor: The devastating Irish Potato Famine (1845-1849), hit Ireland bringing in which 2 million people died from starvation and disease such as dysentery and typhus.
Economical and Political Factors: Immigration to the United States escalated in the 1880's due the Second Industrial Revolution and new industries in Steel, Oil and Electricity and required unskilled labor for the factories.
Scots-Irish immigrants seized the opportunity for new employment, to build a new life with a better standard of living in America.
To discover the full story of the Pull Push factors of Ireland go to Scots-Irish Immigration to America for comprehensive facts, laws and history.
Find examples of Political Push and Pull factors such as significant historical events in Scots-Irish history such as political autocracy of the English which prompted the migration of Scots-Irish people to escape political or religious persecution.
Find examples of Environmental Push and Pull factors relating to any devastating natural disasters that have hit Ireland such as floods, plague, crop failures and famine that led Scots-Irish people to seek safety in a more settled climate and environment.
Find examples of Social Push and Pull factors that prompted migration from Ireland such as a better standard of living and improved educational opportunities and health facilities.
Find examples of Economic Push and Pull factors that prompted immigration from Ireland such as poverty and unemployment that led Scots-Irish people to consider emigration in order to achieve a better standard of living and improve employment opportunities.

pSOS (Portable Software On Silicon) is a real-time operating system (RTOS), created in about 1982 by Alfred Chao, and developed and marketed for the first part of its life by his company Software Components Group (SCG). In the 1980s, pSOS rapidly became the RTOS of choice for all embedded systems based on the Motorola 68000 series family architecture, because it was written in 68000 assembly language and was highly optimised from the start. It was also modularised, with early support for OS-aware debugging, plug-in device drivers, Internet protocol suite (TCP/IP) stacks, language libraries, and disk subsystems. Later came source code level debugging, multiprocessing support, and further computer networking extensions.

In about 1991, Software Components Group was acquired by Integrated Systems Inc. (ISI) which further developed pSOS, then renamed as pSOS+, for other microprocessor families, by rewriting most of it in the programming language C. Attention was also paid to supporting successively more integrated development environments, culminating in pRISM+.

In July 1994, ISI acquired Digital Research's modular real-time multi-tasking operating system FlexOS from Novell.

In 1995, ISI offered a pSOSystem/NEST package for Novell Embedded Systems Technology (NEST).

In February 2000, ISI was acquired by Wind River Systems, the originators of the rival RTOS VxWorks. Despite initial reports that pSOS support would continue, development was halted. Wind River announced plans for a 'convergence' version of VxWorks which will support pSOS system calls, and that no further releases of pSOS will occur.

NXP Semiconductors acquired pSOS for TriMedia from Wind River and continued to support this OS for the TriMedia very long instruction word (VLIW) core.

Migration away from pSOS
In March 2000, rival company Express Logic released their Evaluation Kit for pSOS+ users, designed to provide a migration path to its ThreadX RTOS.

During August 2000, MapuSoft Technologies Inc. came up with the pSOS OS Changer porting kit which can smoothly move the software to multiple OS such as Linux, VxWorks, and more. It includes an integrated development environment (IDE) and application programming interface (API) optimization along with a profiling tool to measure API timing on target boards (www.mapusoft.com).

In August 2007, RoweBots, a former partner of SCG and ISI, open sourced their pSOS+ compatible version called Reliant. It is available to all that wish to upgrade without application changes.

The Xenomai project supports pSOS+ APIs (and others traditional RTOS APIs) over a Linux-based real-time framework to allow existing industrial applications to migrate easily to a Linux-based environment while keeping stringent real-time guarantees.

Another open sourced alternative is RTEMS, which has support for various APIs, including the "Classic API" (compatible to pSOS) and the POSIX API. Compared to Linux, RTEMS is a closer match to pSOS applications due to its lower memory size and its strict realtime behaviour.

Popular Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), now Transport Layer Security (TLS), libraries such as wolfSSL still support pSOS.

Stargate Universe : Episode 38 "Epilogue"
December 26, 2011 Roshan
As We're getting close to the end of a really good tv series that was cancelled way too early and as you will know if you have watched it, will end at a "what will happen" stage.
So in episode 38, the crew of Destiny along with the descendants are above the planet Novus, white the shuttle lands on the planet near a large statue of Col Young. They go to an underground bunker which leads to the planet's archives. The archives shows them arriving on the planet 2000 years ago and finding shelter. In order to save as much data as possible, Eli manages to establish a communication link between the bunker and Destiny and upload the data to the ship's computers. Some of the crew also look for salvageable supplies and Rush finds, Varro and a number of soldiers in the food storage area. Greer calls him over to show him a package of beef jerky, amazed that knowledge of it would survive 2000 years. Meanwhile the archives Kino footage shows the crew settling on the planet, building shelters, looking for material to make weapons and fences to keep possible predators away.
They also find out that in the alternate timeline, Volker was the first to die from the group. His kidney problems were not treatable as TJ lacked the equipment to do so. As Volker listens to the comments he is unable to say anything and leaves in the shuttle to Destiny. As the days, weeks & months pass by we learn of the crew settling down and people getting married. TJ & Young marry, Greer & Park marry, Scott marries Chloe and Varro and James make a connection during the wedding. Later we see the women giving birth to their kids. We also learn that Lisa Park names her son Dale in honour of Volker. Also Eli is surprised to know that his alternate self hooks up with corporal Barnes and that they marry and have kids. We also see Wray speak about dating a woman from the crew but also admitting that she had found her soul mate and doesn't need another.
The recordings also show the progress of TJ's condition as she has ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease). A visibly upset TJ is comforted by her friends and she knows it's only a matter of time before she starts to see the symptoms. Knowing that the archives also have a large medical database with cures for various diseases, Eli says that once the download is completed they should search for a cure in the archives. Meanwhile the videos shows the crew with their children grown up and them having kids too. They find out that the first school had Eli as their teacher.
Finally Eli is able to explain what happened to the Novans and as he tells Young, the gate got buried by a volcanic eruption decades ago. Many had already evacuated by then, but some remained. The two countries, realizing that they stood a better chance by working together, reconciled and built massive starships to cross the void between Novus and a nearby colony world. The world is ten days travel by FTL but hundreds of years by their more primitive propulsion. Soon the earthquakes cause the bunker to start breaking up and the crew has to abandon the rest of the salvaging and they only manage to get 1/3 of the archives uploaded to Destiny. As they evacuate Varro gets injured as he takes a fall. As they leave the planet Eli informs TJ that the cure for ALS wasn't in the part of the database that they were able to download but that they could still develop a cure using the rest of the data.
A final flashback shows the dedication of Eli Wallace Elementary by his grandson, the principal. He tells about how Eli put his life into creating their system of education, and that he plans to uphold that legacy. He turns over the podium to Wray, the last surviving member of the expedition and current mayor, as well as author of their constitution. She recites the same words of greeting Yaozu gave when they first met in the main time. She gives a speech about how the crew thought they had failed their mission when they arrived, but now realizes that it's the journey that matters. An aerial shot of the town shows how it evolves over the generations, progressing from a simple town, to an early industrial city, then finally to an advanced metropolis. The final shot shows one of the Novan starships launching from the city.

The big environmental benefits of eating a little less meat
By Sam Downing| 4 years ago
On the one hand, adopting a vegetarian or vegan lifestyle brings a tonne of benefits. On the other hand, meat is delicious and quitting it is really hard.
On the one hand, adopting a vegetarian or vegan lifestyle brings a tonne of health benefits, without any of that troubling animal cruelty. On the other hand, meat is delicious and quitting it is really hard — no surprise that almost everyone who swears off it for good ends up crawling back into its seared, juicy embrace.
The good news is you can enjoy steak and schnitzel and still score those sweet veggo benefits, if you commit to eating less meat rather than cutting it out altogether. It's an increasingly popular trend that offers you dozens of names to choose from: flexitarian, weekday vegetarian, and even "reducetarian".
The movement has now fuelled the Darwin Challenge, an iPhone app that tracks how much meat you're eating — or rather, how much meat you're not eating — and informs you of the environmental impact of your choice.
According to Charles Darwin, the man behind the app (and great-grandson of Charles), if every Australian took a meat-free day every week for a year, it'd save $1 billion, 130,000 cattle, 66 million chickens, 1 billion fish, an area of forest the size of two ACTs, and a quarter of a million Olympic swimming pools of water.
(Oh. Is that all?)
The impacts are so great because Australians are huge meat lovers —we're the world's second biggest meat consumers per capita, after Kuwait. According to OECD data, in 2014 we each chowed down 90kg of pork, beef, chicken and lamb, and meat consumption has doubled here in the last four decades.

Though meat consumption is dropping off in North America and Europe, it's expected to double worldwide in the next 35 years. If that prediction comes true, Darwin warns "no sapling or sardine will be safe".
"We will probably cause a mass extinction of species over the next 100 to 200 years, greenhouse gases will be very hard to control, water supply will reduce and the oceans will be even more depleted than they are today," he tells Coach.
If the benefits to the environment and your long-term health are too lofty and abstract to convince you to cut back on meat, Darwin adds a shorter-term, more superficial benefit: weight loss.
A recent study found a vegetarian diet is twice as good at cutting body fat than conventional diet — all the more reason to eat more vegetables, grains, legumes, and fruits and nuts and make the steaks and schnitties occasional (and delicious) indulgences.

Flexitarianism


TDK-Lambda Americas Inccommences the TDK-Lambda 2500W EZA2500-32048 bidirectional DC-DC converter for power electronics needs in autonomous ground vehicles, robots, cranes, and elevators.
This power supply can change conversion direction automatically and continuously from grid side 320 volts DC nominal to battery side 48 volts DC nominal.
The EZA2500 also is for solar or wind powered energy storage systems, energy recovery, and recycling previously wasted power from battery testers.
When a 300 to 380 high voltage DC source is available, the converter can be programmed to charge 48 volts DC rechargeable lithium-ion battery banks.
At night the stored energy then can convert back to high-voltage DC to power either DC-AC inverters or DC-input electrical and electronic devices.
When used as part of an energy-recovery system, the previously wasted power lost due to motor braking can be used to charge batteries.
That stored energy then can be used to supply peak power requirements needed during high torque conditions or as emergency standby power.
The EZA2500's output voltage and current can be programmed or monitored using the RS-485 communications port.
Several converters can run in parallel to provide additional power by programming the units into droop-mode current share via the RS-485 interface.
A variety of signals and alarms are also accessible including under or overvoltage alerts or remote on-off.
The converters can operate at full power in ambient temperatures ranging from -10 to 40 degrees Celsius. The advanced digital control enables operating efficiencies of as much as 94 percent.
The EZA2500 is suitable for mounting in 19-inch cabinets, measuring 43.6 by 423 by 400 millimeters. The converters are isolated — 3 kilovolts AC from grid side to battery side input/outputs, 2 kilovolt AC from grid side to ground, and 500 volts AC from battery side to ground.
The units are certified to UL/CSA 60950-1, EN 60950-1 and carry the CE mark for the LVD and RoHS2.

Q: Get model metrics from MOJO model in H2O I have a MOJO model that I want to explore for model metrics (rmse,roc, etc.) I understand all model metrics are available for a binary model, but I want to get these metrics from a MOJO model.
Input - Mojo Model and training dataset
Output - Extract the model metrics
Tried extracting the metrics from a binary model using :
ModelMetricsSupport.modelMetrics [ ModelMetricsSupervised] (binaryModel,valid)
But unable to do the same for a MOJO Model.

A: I was able to get model metrics from a MOJO model in Python(H2O), it can be done either ways :
a. The exported zip of the mojo model has model json that contains all the metrics information.
Path : /experimental/modelDetails.json
b. Second way is to import and invoke model_performance()
import h2o
h2o.init()
model = h2o.import_mojo("/Users/sonamsharma/delete/GLM_model_python_1567539104058_1.zip")
model.model_performance()
This can be either used as is or json can also be extracted.
For JAVA, i tried taking reference of the below issue fix and the code, but was unable to do that.

WELCOME TO THE ST. MAXIMILIAN KOLBE FRATERNITY
ABOUT THE SECULAR FRANCISCANS
The Secular Franciscan Order (Latin: Ordo Franciscanus Saecularis, postnominal abbreviation O.F.S.; also called the Third Order Secular) is a community of Catholic men and women in the world who seek to pattern their lives after Jesus in the spirit of Francis of Assisi.
ABOUT OUR FRATERNITY
The St. Maximillian Kolbe Secular Franciscan fraternity started in 1989 as part of the Kolbe Project to help AIDS victims in the Houston area. Since that time we have grown and taken on new challenges to help our community but we continue to keep God at the center of everything we do.
Have you ever wanted to grow in your relationship with Jesus? Have you ever felt you wanted do something to help the church? Have you ever considered being a Secular Franciscan? Formation is the process of learning about the Secular Franciscans and if it is for you.
We are a Fraternity of the Secular Franciscan Order meeting at St. Jerome's Catholic Church in Houston, TX.
We feel drawn to God through Jesus and are striving to continually conform our lives to His in the footsteps of St. Francis of Assisi.

So I feel like I need to post this: Hotmail is down.
I can't imagine the day one of the largest, free email engines with more than 50 million subscribers goes down….and yet here it is! Microsoft apparently took its Hotmail service offline so company technicians could fix a security hole exposing users' email.
Gmail user? Bet you're feeling pretty awesome right now, eh?
I too am a Gmail user. Even though my Hotmail address was created when I was 12 or so (and I'm actually embarrassed by it), I still don't have the balls to shut her down. Why? Because it was my first email addy – even if it's laughable. It's also kind of my repository for things that remind me of being young while the Interweb was young.
Free dial up using Altavista – Sure it showed ads at the bottom of your screen all day and kicked you offline every now and again, it was free!
ICQ (aka I Seek You) – This great chat site was the original MSN Messenger. I still remember how short my ID was: 7 digits. What was yours?
The dancing baby – a marvel of computer animation we sent around in emails over and over again. If you have to ask you ain't hip.
How about quizzes – Way before Facebook we had email quizzes that people actually filled out! I still have a fee from uni and they make me laugh every time I bust em out.
Dial up sounds – Need I say more? I still curl up in fetal position when I hear them. Just awful.
Netscape Navigator – This bad boy was THE browser of the time. I hated it…always. (Sorry dudes – it was infuriatingly annoying).
Nice stroll down memory lane.
My ICQ number is 6 digits (402105) and the envy of my geek friends. I still log in every once in a while, just for fun. It's just Asian spam now, as far as I can tell.
Dude! You beat me! I'm 1541815 🙂 is it sad I can ring it off as fast (if not faster) than my social security number?
Back in the day, I remember listing ICQ numbers as a part of my friends contact info so I could have them on the go. This of course was on my 1st gen Palm Pilot.
600,000 something from back in 98/99 or so I think. It's dead now though. I only used it for online gaming at the time. Oh Ultima Online, how you stole my life.
Oddly enough they're auctioning off 6 digit ICQ numbers on EBay.
I still use my Hotmail address! It's mostly for friends/subscriptions while gmail is for professional. I should change over completely but like you said it's hard to leave it. As for my icq I just found mine (73102003) and I even downloaded the iPhone app (yes it exists)!

Some of the most common medications can cause permanent side effects in children
The new study provides strong evidence that antibiotics can cause unwanted immune responses.
A new study suggests that early exposure to antibiotics may lead to chronic asthma and allergies.
Recent research has shown that early exposure to antibiotics can destroy beneficial bacteria in the digestive system and cause asthma and allergies.
Research published in the journal Mucosal ImmunologyIt provides the strongest evidence to date that early antibiotic exposure and later is the cause of the long-known link between asthma and allergies.
"The practical implication is simple: avoid using antibiotics in young children whenever possible because they may increase the risk of long-term complications from allergies and/or asthma," said senior author Martin Blaser. and treatment Rutgers.
The authors of the study, from Rutgers University, New York UniversityAnd University of ZurichAntibiotics are among the most commonly used drugs in children that affect gut microbiome communities and metabolic functions. These changes in the composition of the microbiota may affect the host's immune response.
In the first phase of the experiment, five-day-old mice were given water, azithromycin or amoxicillin. After the mice reached adulthood, the scientists exposed them to a common allergen produced by house dust mite. Mice that received antibiotics, specifically azithromycin, had heightened immune responses – that is, allergies.
In the second and third stages of the experiment, certain healthy gut bacteria, which are critical for proper immune system development, are killed by early exposure to antibiotics (but not later exposure), which can cause allergies and asthma.
Lead author Timothy Borbet first transferred bacteria-rich stool samples from the first group of mice to a second group of adult mice. Some received samples from mice that had been given azithromycin or amoxicillin as infants. Others received normal samples from mice that received water.
Just as people who take antibiotics as adults are less likely to develop asthma or allergies, mice that received the antibiotic-altered sample were no more likely to develop allergic reactions to house dust than other mice.
But for the next generation, things were different. Mice offspring that received antibiotic-altered samples reacted more strongly to dust echoes than their parents that received samples unaltered by antibiotics.
"This was a carefully controlled experiment," Blaser said. "The only variable in the first class was antibiotic exposure. The only variable in the second two classes was whether or not the gut bacterial mix was affected by antibiotics. Everything about the mice was the same."
"These experiments provide strong evidence that antibiotics can cause unwanted immune responses due to their effects on gut bacteria, but only if the gut bacteria are altered in early childhood," Blaser added.

import { FormattedHTMLMessage, injectIntl } from 'react-intl';
import SimpleDialog from '../SimpleDialog';

const localMessages = {
  invitation: { id: 'help.query.invitation', defaultMessage: 'Learn about writing search terms.' },
  title: { id: 'help.query.title', defaultMessage: 'Writing Media Cloud Queries' },
  content: { id: 'help.query.content', defaultMessage: `

You can query Media Cloud with boolean searches that match stories, a lot like you might use Google.  Here are some examples:

Boolean Connectors

OR

 - cheese OR cheesy - using "OR" searches for stories that use either "cheese" or the word "cheesy," or stories that contain both words

 - Note: OR is the default connector. This means that unless you specifically put quotations around words or add an "AND" or "NOT" between them, the system will treat your search as though there is an OR.

AND

 - cheese AND blue - using "AND" lets you look for stories that include both the word "cheese" and the word "blue"

NOT

 - cheese NOT blue - using "NOT" lets you remove content you don't want; searching for stories that use the word "cheese" but don't have the word "blue" in them

Other Search Parameters

ASTERIX

chees* - using an asterix searches for stories that use any word that starts with "chees" - including "cheese", "cheesy", or others

QUOTATIONS

 - "blue cheese" - putting a phrase in quotes lets you search for stories that use the exact phrase "blue cheese"

 - Please note that we do not support searching for different forms of a word (using an asterisk) inside of quotation marks

SEARCHING IN ANOTHER LANGUAGE

 - fromage AND language:fr - using the "language:" keyword lets you narrow in on a language; here searching for stories that use the word "fromage" and have been detected by our system as being written in French

 - Visit our language guide to learn more about the language we support and their codes

PARENTHESES

 - cheese AND (blue OR manchego OR goat OR cheddar) - using parentheses lets you author more complex queries; searching here for stories that have the word "cheese" and at least one other word describing what type it is

PROXIMITY SEARCH

 - "cheese blue" ~10 - enter your keywords in quotation marks and then include a tilde ~, followed by the number of words you want to limit your search to in terms of proximity. This will return stories in which cheese and blue are within 10 words of each other.

 - Please note that we do not support searching for different forms of a word (using an asterisk) in proximity search

I completed my undergraduate studies in Electrical Engineering at Simon Bolivar University, Venezuela, in 1990. Between 1989 and 1991, I was employed as an electrical engineer at C.V.G. Edelca, a hydro power generation and transmission company, focussing in the areas of power systems stability analysis, control systems design, and electromagnetic transient analysis. In 1991, I started my PhD studies at City University, London, in the area of control engineering, which I completed in 1994. This was followed by a period of five years employed as a post-doctoral research fellow at City University funded by the EPSRC, working in the areas of optimal control and state estimation.
In 2000, I joined the University of Reading as a Lecturer, where I worked as an academic for a period of almost 16 years at the School of Systems Engineering, becoming a Professor of Automatic Control in 2012. Between 2011 and 2012, I was seconded to the Ford Motor Company in Dunton, Essex, with funding by the Royal Academy of Engineering, where I developed methods for the calibration of gasoline engine oil temperature dynamic models. I commenced my current position at Portsmouth in December 2015.

PM addresses conclave on NEP: It will lay foundation of 'New India', says Narendra Modi
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, delivering the inaugural address at the Conclave on Transformational Reforms in Higher Education under National Education Policy said the National Education Policy will "lay the foundation of New India of the 21st Century."
"The NEP will be the foundation of 21st century India. NEP's focus is on the type of skills and educations needed by our youths. NEP is dedicated to propelling India on the path of growth and empowerment," he said.
The prime minister, addressing the conclave organised by the Ministry of Human Resource Development and the University Grants Commission via video conferencing, said the entire country had been waiting for this change "for years".
Indeed, the National Education Policy, (NEP), approved by the Union Cabinet on 29 July, which seeks to implement reforms from 'toddler to college' and thus overhaul the education system, came 34 years after the previous policy was introduced. It was also part of the National Democratic Alliance's 2014 election manifesto.
'Healthy debate'
Modi, saying that the NEP has "given rise to healthy debate" with people reviewing its benefits. He added that "everyone agrees that there is no bias" in the NEP. He also said he is totally committed to its implementation and assured the public that he has the political will to follow through.
The prime minister also said imparting education in mother tongue will help students.
"We have to make our students global citizens. We have to also take care that they should also be connected to their roots. NEP has been designed keeping these factors in mind. There is no doubt in the fact that teaching in the mother tongue yields better results. Keeping this factor in mind, imparting education in the mother tongue till class 5 has been proposed in NEP," he said.
Modi's remarks come just days after Tamil Nadu government, amid outrage from the Opposition, including DMK, rejected the NEP's three-language formula and said there will be no deviation from the existing system, which had been taught "for decades."
Chief Minister E Palaniswami had on Monday said, "The three-language formula in the NEP is painful and saddening. The prime minister should reconsider the three-language policy."
The NEP, passed by the Union Cabinet last week, laid emphasis on the mother tongue/local and regional language which will now be the medium of instruction at least till Class 5, but preferably till Class 8 and beyond. Also, Sanskrit will be offered at all levels of school and higher education as an option for students, including in the three-language formula.
'Every student should pursue passion'
Modi, stressing on the flexibility offered by the NEP, pointed out that students have been given multiple entry and exit points
"Every student should get an opportunity to pursue his or her passion. On most occasions, when students go for jobs, they realise that what they have studied does not count for much in employment. Sometimes, students have to skip their education to pursue a job. Due to this reason, multiple exit options have been given to students under NEP. There is a need to prepare the youth for multiple professions as change is inevitable," the prime minister said.
The NEP allows students to avail of an Academic Bank of Credit (ABC) which will digitally store academic credits from different institutions so that these can be transferred and counted towards the final degree earned. This means they can also take a gap year or return to their studies after a few years.
A student who completes four years of study in a course will receive a Bachelor's Degree with research, a Bachelor's Degree for three years of study, an Advanced Diploma for finishing two years and a Diploma for completing a year of study, as per the NEP.
'From what to think to how to think'
Modi said thus far the education system focussed only on what to think and now the emphasis will be on how to think and that the NEP will assist with the transition.
"There is a flood of information in today's age. The need is the ability to accept which information and study that. NEP has stressed that inquiry-based, discussion-based and analysis-based thinking be encouraged," the prime minister said.
He also said that there were no major changes in the country's education system over the years. As a result, instead of promoting values €‹€‹of curiosity and imagination, herd mentality was being encouraged.
"India's students should study in a scientific manner," he said. "When the youth will study in situations and times that change quickly, they will construct a stronger India. Earlier, there was a rush to create engineers, doctors and lawyers. No stress was laid on critical thinking. Education will not be complete until it includes critical thinking and purpose."
The prime minister further said that education needs to propel people on a creative and commitment-driven life and the change in the education system from 10+2 to 5+3+3+4 is a step towards that.
"The questions that we were faced with at the start was whether our education propels us on a creative and commitment-driven life. The second question is whether our education system empowers youth and society. The education system needed to be changed with changing times. We had to move from the 10+2 system to 5+3+3+4 system," he said.
Modi also quoted the late president APJ Abdul Kadam, who had said the purpose of education is to "make good human beings". He added that enlightened human beings can be created by teachers and said "I believe when a teacher learns, a nation leads."
The NEP seeks to establish a National Mission for Mentoring, with a large pool of outstanding senior or retired faculty who would be willing to provide short and long-term mentoring, professional support to university and college teachers.
'Need to empower higher education system'
Modi said a lot of emphasis has been laid on teacher training, and a lot of attention has been paid to developing the dignity of labour while framing the NEP.
The NEP seeks the formulation of a new and comprehensive National Curriculum Framework for Teacher Education, NCFTE 2021, by the NCTE in consultation with NCERT. By 2030, the minimum degree qualification for teaching will be a 4-year integrated B.Ed. degree. Stringent action will be taken against substandard stand-alone Teacher Education Institutions (TEIs), as per the NEP.
Modi also advocated for greater autonomy for higher educational institutions that promote quality education.
"The higher education system needs to be empowered. There are two views on autonomy in our country. One is that there should be governmental control on higher education centres. The view is that there should be autonomy in education. Whichever institution works more towards quality education should be provided incentives," he said.
As per the new policy, the system of affiliation will be phased out over 15 years and a stage-wise mechanism for granting graded autonomy to colleges, through a transparent system of graded accreditation, will be established. Over a period of time it is envisaged that every college would develop into either an autonomous degree-granting college, or a constituent college of a university, as per the new NEP.
The prime minister further observed that today is Rabindranath Tagore's death anniversary. "He used to say that the best education is that which not only informs but harmonises our lives. NEP's major goal is associated with this thinking," he added.

The Aranda's Pepa
An introduction to Carl Strehlow's Masterpiece Die Aranda- und Loritja-Stämme in Zentral-Australien (1907-1920)
Authored by: Anna Kenny
DOI: http://doi.org/10.22459/AP.12.2013
The German missionary Carl Strehlow (1871-1922) had a deep ethnographic interest in Aboriginal Australian cosmology and social life which he documented in his 7 volume work Die Aranda- und Loritja-Stämme in Zentral-Australien that remains unpublished in English. In 1913, Marcel Mauss called his collection of sacred songs and myths, an Australian Rig Veda. This immensely rich corpus, based on a lifetime on the central Australian frontier, is barely known in the English-speaking world and is the last great body of early Australian ethnography that has not yet been built into the world of Australian anthropology and its intellectual history.
The German psychological and hermeneutic traditions of anthropology that developed outside of a British-Australian intellectual world were alternatives to 19th century British scientism. The intellectual roots of early German anthropology reached back to Johann Gottfried Herder (1744-1803), the founder of German historical particularism, who rejected the concept of race as well as the French dogma of the uniform development of civilisation. Instead he recognised unique sets of values transmitted through history and maintained that cultures had to be viewed in terms of their own development and purpose. Thus, humanity was made up of a great diversity of ways of life, language being one of its main manifestations. It is this tradition that led to a concept of cultures in the plural.

An important shift in the provisioning of computing resources happened in 2006 when Amazon started offering cloud computing to external customers as Amazon Web Services (AWS). Since then additional large companies entered the cloud computing market like IBM with the SmartCloud framework in 2011 or Oracle in 2012 with the Oracle Cloud. An enabling technology for cloud computing is virtualization that developed from a niche product to an essential technology used in every data center.
As the cloud computing begins to provision a subset of HPC services, and companies like Cycle Computing emerge that enable HPC applications on the cloud, the question is if the entire HPC service portfolio can be served as a cloud service.
The goals of this forum are two-folds: 1) to understand how HPC data center technologies (providers) leverage cloud computing for HPC services; 2) to explore opportunities that a cloud environment offers to extend HPC services (users) portfolio.
We would like to learn from your real-life experiences in deploying / using cloud computing and virtualization.

For The Love Of Yorkies…..
We love our dogs, don't we? Some of us prefer certain breeds, others focus on size, and still others prefer a rescue animal. There is no right or wrong animal as long as the pet is cared for and loved as a member of the family.
We are Yorkie people. Between my husband and me we have had a Llasa Apso, a Bulldog, a Jack Russel Terrier, Rottweilers, rescue dogs, and now Yorkshire Terriers. Yorkies are a breed unto themselves, and those of us who love Yorkies would agree. A Yorkie is not just a dog, a Yorkie is an experience. They may appear to be the darlings of the dog world, but looks can be deceiving.
Yorkshire Terriers have a colorful, if not convoluted, history. The origin of the Yorkie harkens back to the mid-1800s and the counties of Yorkshire and Lancashire in northern England. The fashionably dressed and coiffed Yorkies of today were the working dogs of yesteryear. It is believed that weavers from Scotland brought their Broken Hair Scottish Terriers, not to be confused with the breed Scottish Terrier, when they migrated to England. The Scottish terriers were small but mighty and were used as ratters in the textile mills and coal mines because of their ability to squeeze into nooks and crannies to ferret out rodents. Hunters put the Terriers in their pockets when heading out across the fields hunting fox, badgers, and any other medium-sized animals unfortunate enough to tangle with these brave, skilled little dogs.
The Yorkie's ancestry is a compilation of the Clydesdale, Paisley, and Skye Terriers from Scotland with a dash of Waterside Terrier from England. Huddleshire Ben was a well-known Terrier, named after Huddleshire County in Yorkshire, England. Born in the mid-1860s, Huddleshire Ben has the distinction of establishing the Yorkshire Terrier as a recognized breed. He was a larger dog, yet sired litters of dogs weighing 5 pounds or less, thus the establishment of the toy breed most are familiar with. Huddleshire Ben was a champion in his own right having won 70+ dog shows and ratter contests. Although Huddleshire Ben provided the foundation of the Yorkie breed, it wasn't until 1874 the breed was officially named the Yorkshire Terrier. In 1878, the AKC registered the formerly known Broken Hair Terrier as the Yorkshire Terrier. The popularity of the Yorkie took off during the Victorian era and the breed went from working-class ratter to the pampered toy breed and companion dog we know today.
Yorkies are often seen as the bedazzled breed of the dog world wearing the latest fashions and matching bows, but don't be fooled by their pampered pooch appearance. During World War II, another famous Yorkie named Smokey served with the 5th Air Force in the Pacific. Smokey was found in a shell hole near the Japanese lines in New Guinea by William Wynne, an American soldier. Smokey was a courageous pup, indeed. As a member of the troop, she went on 150+ air raids and 12 sea missions, jumped from a 30-foot tower with a specially made parachute, assisted the Signal Corp by carrying telegraph wire through a 70 foot, eight-inch pipe, and even survived a typhoon in Okinawa. After her war experiences, Smokey visited veterans' hospitals with William Wynne.
Yorkies are set apart in other ways, too. The fur of the Yorkshire is more like human hair as opposed to fur, thus making Yorkies low-allergen dogs. And, they don't shed, so regular grooming is necessary to keep their fur silky and healthy.
Yorkies are personality plus pets. Energetic, fun-loving, affectionate, quite independent, and highly intelligent, ranking 17th out of 90 dog breeds in intelligence. Most Yorkies learn quickly with a little consistent training from their fur parents. Yorkies are feisty and tend to be a bit on the bossy side, too. It can be adorable but the pint-sized pups need to learn manners so they don't rule the household.
We love our Yorkies that much is obvious. We believe every pet is special, every pet deserves to be a valued member of the family, every pet is a God-breathed soul…..

The first dogs my husband and I had when we got married were Yorkies, called Dandy and Tamara. You're right about looks being deceiving – Dandy (the male) was a lot smaller than Tamara, but we had to keep him on a tight leader when passing other dogs! 😀 We have a poodle x welsh terrier and a parsons jack russell terrier now.
Bridging The Divide with Suzanne
Thank you so much for writing! I bet he was one tough little guy – we have a male too that is just a little over 3 pounds and sounds as fierce as they come when he hears the neighbor dogs barking outside! Aren't dogs just wonderful??!! I love them all! Many blessings to you and your canine family!
Blessings to you too. 😀 x


It is imperative to know that the plan of God for the salvation of mankind were established within the Righteousness of God. Even though God had saved all men through the Gospel of God's Righteousness that constitutes Jesus' baptism, death and resurrection but only those who believe in His Righteousness are called according to the fore knowledge of God. The word 'elect' simply means 'chosen' to be set apart for the glory of God.
Without question the Word of God teaches that before the world began God's sovereignty has planned salvation for man within the righteousness of God. The purpose of God in election must stand, that it is not by works but by Him Who calls. Our salvation is altogether the work of divine grace bestowed upon us through the merit of Christ's righteous acts on earth.
The Apostle Paul assured the believers at Thessalonica that they were numbered among God's elect. Then Paul listed 5 characteristics of God's elect, 5 identifying marks of election.
All who are elect of God will hear the Gospel of God's Righteousness that constitutes Jesus' baptism, death and resurrection and sense a deep conviction in their hearts by the irresistible power of the Holy Spirit. They will be compelled to believe because the Gospel came not with words only but also in power, Holy Spirit and much assurance.
All who are elect of God experience that their hearts and lives are radically changed by the Gospel Word of Righteousness. Our Lord said, "My sheep (elect) hear my voice and I know them and they follow me." Those who are born of God follow the example of Christ in faith, love and hope by the indwelling Holy Spirit.
Paul knew that the Thessalonian believers were truly God's elect because they became example to all who believe. From them, the Word of the Lord were sounded out in every place and their faith in God was spread abroad. These men and women were devoted to the furtherance of the Gospel of God's Righteousness. They did not have to be primed and pumped week after week to get them to walk with their Savior. The love of Christ and the grace of God had gotten hold of their hearts.
The Thessalonian believers who are God's elect turn to the Living Savior from idols to serve and worship Him only. Conversion is a change and turning of the heart. It is a change of mind, a change of masters and a change of motives.
Those who are God's Elect are born of God live in the anticipation of Christ glorious return to take them home from this fallen world. They are created in God's Righteousness, received perfect remission of sin, adopted as God's children by the indwelling Holy Spirit, enjoy heavenly blessings and waiting to live as divine children throughout eternity.
We become God's elect through the sanctifying work of the Spirit and are made obedient to the will of God.

Unfortunately I haven't received all of the order. There was no 7up and got bbq instead of burger sauce. Donner meat also quite dry. Very very disappointed.
Absolutely brilliant! Always excellent everytime we order Alhumdolilah. Highly recommended.
Best in Hanwell, i will miss you guys. Take care.
placed an order at 7pm, was told delivery time at 8:10pm. waited until 08:20pm, then called the restaurant and was told that it's a different company doing the delivery, so they had no idea where my delivery was at. then called 2 more times and finally called them at 08:45 to cancel the order, as it is not acceptable to wait nearly 2 hours for something which your not even sure if it will arrive and if by then it will be good enough to eat.
The biryani could do with more meat than rice.
Came on time but was not hot. Slightly disappointed.
Never arrived!!! Just took my money!!
I ordered 7up but I receive Pepsi. I called them to say I don't want Pepsi and they should refund the money back as they didn't ask me before they send this alternative product. The guy over the phone was not helpfull at all and was trying to make excuses but when I reminded him it's their fault as if they don't had 7 up they shouldn't have send an alternative without asking me then he agreed to send someone back to refund but no one turns up. So frustrating??? Reall poor service.
If you have a food allergy or intolerance (or someone you're ordering for has), phone the restaurant on 02085794567.

State lawmaker just stone cold fumin' over 'Smyrna S#&*holes' comment
Utz: 'The emails were sent at the end of a long, and frustrating, day'
By Max Blau	Friday December 20, 2013 01:54 pm EST
Georgia House of Representatives
State Rep. Earl Ehrhart
State Rep. Earl Ehrhart, a Powder Springs Republican and annual contender for CL's Golden Sleaze Awards, is just plain angry as can be over comments made by a city official in just-released emails about the failed negotiations to keep the Atlanta Braves at Turner Field.
On. Nov. 11, Atlanta Deputy Chief Operating Officer Hans Utz and other officials in Mayor Kasim Reed's office were caught off guard by the baseball team's decision to move to Cobb. During a chaotic day of internal scrambling, Utz, who led the negotiations with the team, quipped that he doubted the Braves would rename themselves the "Cobb Crackers" or the "Smyrna Shitholes." He even wrote a haiku.
"The Braves might leave us / Becoming the Cobb Crackers / I feel bad for them," Utz wrote in one email.
Utz received a three-day suspension without pay for making inappropriate remarks about the fine folks of Cobb County. The suspension was prior to the release of more than 600 emails requested from local media, including CL, under the Open Records Act.
The city official apologized for his comments, calling them a "lapse in judgment" and an "ill-advised attempt at using humor to make a point about the Braves still being a part of the greater metropolitan region" after a "long, and frustrating day."
"They were not meant to disparage our suburban neighbors," he said.
Nevertheless, his comments have cause a bit of an uproar over the past 24 hours. Erhhart, who helped connect Braves executives with Cobb County officials, has called upon the city to ax the city official.
"He really needs to be fired," Ehrhart [http://www.mdjonline.com/view/full_story/24030545/articleMatchmakerRepEhrhart-got-BravesexecCobb-chairman-togetherpitched-idea-of-move|told the Marietta Daily Journal]. "Calling the people who live in Cobb County 'crackers' or whatever expletive is not the type of behavior you need from somebody who's paid with taxpayer dollars."
Mike Plant, an Atlanta Braves' executive vice president who negotiated with Utz, defended the city official in comments to the AJC: "Hans, he's a good guy, a smart guy. He had the city's interests at heart. I feel bad for him. Every once in a while, we all turn our filter off. So I hope this isn't some challenging issue he has to deal with for the rest of his career. That's not who he is. I never saw that. Hans is a professional."
Chief Operating Officer Duriya Farooqui, who was also involved in negotiations, last week announced that she would leave City Hall at the end of January for a role with international consultants Bain and Company. Reed plans on announcing her replacement in early 2014.

Artists Community Coming Together to Create Community
Dan Aubrey
The "Concentric Circles of Influence: The Birth of Arts Communities in Central New Jersey" project mixes past, present, and future with the program "Intersecting Circles: Artists Connect," set for 7 p.m., Thursday, March 6, at the Arts Council of Princeton.
The event opens with a showing of arts writer Ilene Dube's short film "Queenston Press: Birth of an Art Community," an overview of a regional arts movement that spanned the 1960s and 1970s and is the subject of exhibitions currently on view at the Arts Council of Princeton, Princeton Public Library, and Princeton Historical Society's two venues: the Bainbridge House on Nassau Street and Updike Farm on Quaker Road.
The film features interviews with the artists of Queenston Press: Judy Brodsky, Trudy Glucksberg, Louise Sue Johnson, Margaret Johnson, Marie Sturken, Joan Needham, and Helen Schwartz. Dube will be on hand to comment on the film.
The remainder of the program features observations by and discussions with artists involved in regional arts organizations including Jay J. Brandlinger, Princeton Photo Club; Will "Kasso" Condry, Sage Coalition; Derrick Branch, A-TEAM; Andrew Wilkinson, Trenton Slow Art; Liz Aubrey (wife of U.S. 1's Preview editor), Trenton Artists Workshop Association; Marsha Levin-Roger, MOVIS; Shellie Jacobson, Princeton Artist Alliance; and Jeannine Honstein, Art + 10.
Regional artist Madelaine Shellaby moderates. In addition to being involved with several area arts organization, Shellaby curated the "Circles of Influence: Contemporary Works" on display at the Arts Council of Princeton through Sunday, March 8.
"Concentric Circles" is the effort of Dube and Kate Sommers, curator of the Bernstein Gallery at the Woodrow Wilson School of Public Affairs at Princeton University.
The project began in January with the launch of the Queenston exhibitions and was followed by an exhibition highlighting the Trenton Artists Workshop Association members at Mercer County Community College. "Circles" continues at the New Jersey State Museum in Trenton with "The Artists of Roosevelt," a 42-work exhibition that highlights an ongoing arts community that began in late 1930s and has included important state artists Ben Shahn, Jacob Landau, Bernarda Bryson, and others. The exhibition closes Sunday, May 25.
The Queenston Press "Women's Portfolio" exhibition at the Princeton Public Library (65 Witherspoon Street) closes Tuesday, April 15. The Princeton Historical Society exhibitions — "Bicentennial Portfolio" at the Bainbridge House (158 Nassau Street) and "Ten Crucial Days" portfolio at Updike Farmstead (354 Quaker Road) — close on Saturday, July 12.
Originally from Brooklyn, Ilene Dube is well known to the region as an arts writer for U.S. 1 and other publications and creator of the Artful Blogger site. She is also a painter and filmmaker. For "Concentric Circles" Dube wrote an overview of the project and an important piece of regional history — an untold story that is beginning a new chapter. You can read it on the U.S. 1 website at http://princetoninfo.com/index.php?option=com_us1more&key=3-5-14circweb
Or you can hear about it from the filmmaker/writers and members of the arts community at "Intersecting Circles: Artists Connect," Arts Council of Princeton, 102 Witherspoon Street, Princeton, Thursday, March 6, 7 p.m. The event is free but attendees are welcome to contribute to the pot luck reception.
