Evangelist Jim W. Moss was born in Pine Bluff, Arkansas and called to preach at the age of 14. As a teenager, he preached 77 revivals in various states. At the age of 18, he became pastor of the Macedonia Baptist Church in Humnoke, Arkansas. In 1978 and 1979, Macedonia was the fastest growing church in Arkansas with over 250 baptisms recorded. God moved him to Shelbyville, Texas in 1981, where he pastored Ephesus Baptist Church until the year 1990. Then he became pastor of the First Baptist Church located in San Augustine, Texas for the next 10 years. Both churches received recognition for the largest percentage Sunday School growth and twenty percent baptism increase. In 2000, Brother Moss surrendered to the call of evangelism. For the past 16 years, he has been in full-time service, preaching over 50 meetings per year. At the outset, he acknowledged that accountability was of utmost importance to God and the people who supported him, thus, his Love Worth Sharing Evangelistic Ministries became incorporated. He graduated and received a Bachelor of Arts Degree from Louisiana Baptist University. In December 2015, Jim was awarded a prestigious honorary Doctor of Ministry from Temple Baptist Seminary for his 41 years of dedication to the Gospel Ministry.
Jim is married to Rita McClellan of New Edinburg, Arkansas. They have two grown children: Jeremiah Moss and Geneva Moss Brown; a daughter-in-law, Amanda May Moss and son-in-law, Waylon Brown; and six grandchildren: Wade, Madilynn, and Kathryn Moss; James, Samuel, and Elijah Brown. Brother Jim resides in Nacogdoches, Texas.

Save San Onofre State Beach
San Onofre Timeline
The history of fighting to protect San Onofre State Beach
San Onofre a state park
San Onofre was originally designated a state park in 1971 by then-Governor Ronald Reagan in cooperation with then-President Richard Nixon. The state park land is leased by the Department of Parks and Recreation from the U.S. Navy, on lands adjoining nearby Camp Pendleton U.S. Marine Corps Base. A 50-year lease was signed in 1971 for the land, which vests the Department of Parks and Recreation with authority to operate the park.
Toll roll plan is created
In 1986, two joint-powers authorities were created to plan, finance and operate toll roads in the county. The Foothill/Eastern Transportation Corridor Agency (TCA) and the San Joaquin Hills Transportation Corridor Agency were established and seated with elected officials from the areas where the toll roads would be created. The Foothill/Eastern Transportation Corridor Agency has jurisdiction over the existing 241, 261 and 133 toll roads and is the body with final decision-making authority for the proposed extension of the 241.
San Onofre: Southern Extension Toll Road
After the first section of the 241 was built near Lake Forest in 1993, the TCA began planning the southern extension, referred to the Foothills-South. As proposed, the road would extend Route 241 from Oso Parkway to I-5 in San Diego County.
State Park and Recreation Commission
A 2005 State Park and Recreation Commission hearing was one of the most-attended Commission hearings ever, and public support for the park helped later convince the Commission to enter in litigation against the TCA. The SSOC also organized the largest public turnout in California Coastal Commission history.
TCA determined toll route
After studying several potential routes, in 2006, TCA determined their preferred alignment, the "Green Alignment," was the one that would significantly affect San Onofre State Beach. Throughout the fight, the Save San Onofre Coalition, State Park and Recreation Commission, and California Native American Heritage Commission had sued TCA for their certification of environmental documents in 2006, and in 2013 for its attempt to build the Tesoro Extension.
Coastal Commission Hearing
In 2008, nearly 4,000 people attended the Commission hearing where the road was overwhelmingly rejected. Under its authority to review and apply the Federal Coastal Zone Management Act (CZMA) to projects that impact California's coastline, the Commission found that the toll road proposal could not meet any standard for consistency with state and federal coastal laws. In December 2008, the appeal was ultimately denied, leaving in place the Coastal Commission's ruling.
Tesoro Extension
Since it was denied from pursuing the entire alignment, the TCA attempted to pursue a scaled-down version, dubbed the Tesoro Extension.
Attempt to build road in segments
Since it was denied from pursuing the entire alignment, the TCA attempted to pursue a scaled-down version, dubbed the Tesoro Extension. The TCA was rebuffed in 2014 and 2015 when both the State and Regional Water Quality Control Boards rejected inappropriate attempts to build the road in "segments."
San Onofre Settlement
After years of advocacy, lobbying at the state and federal levels, organizing and mobilizing grassroots supporters and organizations, and engaging in litigation to protect the park, in late 2016, California State Parks Foundation and its allies in the Save San Onofre Coalition (SSOC) negotiated a key settlement with the TCA that ended the toll road threat to the park. This settlement was the product of more than two years of meetings and discussions among the SSOC and TCA. The most significant and hard-fought aspect of the settlement carves out an "avoidance area" that requires TCA to refrain from building or funding a road project within an area that includes San Onofre State Beach, the nearby Richard and Donna O'Neill Conservancy and other critical open space, wildlife habitat and cultural resources in the San Mateo Creek watershed.
Move to invalidate the settlement
Unfortunately, in July 2017, TCA, SSOC, and the state of California were sued by the City of San Clemente and a local homeowners' group, Reserve Maintenance Corporation (Reserve), to invalidate the settlement agreement. The City and Reserve fear that, because it can no longer construct a route through the park, the TCA will pursue a route that goes through the City of San Clemente.
AB 1426 (Horvath): Protect San Onofre State Beach was introduced in the legislature. This would require that State Parks report any proposed state or local agency infrastructure projects that would encroach or interfere with the operation of San Onofre State Beach to the legislature. Current status: Assembly Appropriations.
Protect San Onofre State Beach in 2020
We are hopeful and will continue to push forward AB 1426 (Horvath): Protect San Onofre State Beach in 2020. Please sign our petition supporting Assemblymember Tasha Boerner-Horvath's AB 1426, which shores up protections for San Onofre State Beach, the Donna O'Neill Land Conservancy, and the San Mateo Watershed.
San Onofre State Beach Saved!
On September 25, 2020, Assemblymember Tasha Boerner Horvath's bill Assembly Bill 1426 to permanently protect San Onofre State Beach was signed by Governor Gavin Newsom. After nearly two decades of hard-fought advocacy to protect San Onofre State Beach permanently and statutorily, Governor Newsom made that goal a reality.

===============
Getting started
===============

Test data
=========

There are test data files which can be used for importing in the `test/core/exports` directory.

The test models
===============

For example purposes, we'll use a simplified book app. Here is our
``models.py``::

    # app/models.py

    class Author(models.Model):
        name = models.CharField(max_length=100)

        def __str__(self):
            return self.name

    class Category(models.Model):
        name = models.CharField(max_length=100)

        def __str__(self):
            return self.name

    class Book(models.Model):
        name = models.CharField('Book name', max_length=100)
        author = models.ForeignKey(Author, blank=True, null=True)
        author_email = models.EmailField('Author email', max_length=75, blank=True)
        imported = models.BooleanField(default=False)
        published = models.DateField('Published', blank=True, null=True)
        price = models.DecimalField(max_digits=10, decimal_places=2, null=True, blank=True)
        categories = models.ManyToManyField(Category, blank=True)

        def __str__(self):
            return self.name

.. _base-modelresource:

Creating import-export resource
===============================

To integrate `django-import-export` with our ``Book`` model, we will create a
:class:`~import_export.resources.ModelResource` class in ``admin.py`` that will
describe how this resource can be imported or exported::

    # app/admin.py

    from import_export import resources
    from core.models import Book

    class BookResource(resources.ModelResource):

        class Meta:
            model = Book

Exporting data
==============

Now that we have defined a :class:`~import_export.resources.ModelResource` class,
we can export books::

    >>> from app.admin import BookResource
    >>> dataset = BookResource().export()
    >>> print(dataset.csv)
    id,name,author,author_email,imported,published,price,categories
    2,Some book,1,,0,2012-12-05,8.85,1

Customize resource options
==========================

By default :class:`~import_export.resources.ModelResource` introspects model
fields and creates :class:`~import_export.fields.Field`-attributes with an
appropriate :class:`~import_export.widgets.Widget` for each field.

To affect which model fields will be included in an import-export
resource, use the ``fields`` option to whitelist fields::

    class BookResource(resources.ModelResource):

        class Meta:
            model = Book
            fields = ('id', 'name', 'price',)

Or the ``exclude`` option to blacklist fields::

    class BookResource(resources.ModelResource):

        class Meta:
            model = Book
            exclude = ('imported', )

An explicit order for exporting fields can be set using the ``export_order``
option::

    class BookResource(resources.ModelResource):

        class Meta:
            model = Book
            fields = ('id', 'name', 'author', 'price',)
            export_order = ('id', 'price', 'author', 'name')

The default field for object identification is ``id``, you can optionally set
which fields are used as the ``id`` when importing::

    class BookResource(resources.ModelResource):

        class Meta:
            model = Book
            import_id_fields = ('isbn',)
            fields = ('isbn', 'name', 'author', 'price',)

When defining :class:`~import_export.resources.ModelResource` fields it is
possible to follow model relationships::

    class BookResource(resources.ModelResource):

        class Meta:
            model = Book
            fields = ('author__name',)

.. note::

    Following relationship fields sets ``field`` as readonly, meaning
    this field will be skipped when importing data.

By default all records will be imported, even if no changes are detected. This
can be changed setting the ``skip_unchanged`` option. Also, the
``report_skipped`` option controls whether skipped records appear in the import
``Result`` object, and if using the admin whether skipped records will show in
the import preview page::

    class BookResource(resources.ModelResource):

        class Meta:
            model = Book
            skip_unchanged = True
            report_skipped = False
            fields = ('id', 'name', 'price',)

.. seealso::

    :doc:`/api_resources`

Declaring fields
================

It is possible to override a resource field to change some of its
options::

    from import_export.fields import Field

    class BookResource(resources.ModelResource):
        published = Field(attribute='published', column_name='published_date')

        class Meta:
            model = Book

Other fields that don't exist in the target model may be added::

    from import_export.fields import Field

    class BookResource(resources.ModelResource):
        myfield = Field(column_name='myfield')

        class Meta:
            model = Book

.. seealso::

    :doc:`/api_fields`
        Available field types and options.

Advanced data manipulation on export
====================================

Not all data can be easily extracted from an object/model attribute.
In order to turn complicated data model into a (generally simpler) processed
data structure on export, ``dehydrate_<fieldname>`` method should be defined::

    from import_export.fields import Field

    class BookResource(resources.ModelResource):
        full_title = Field()

        class Meta:
            model = Book

        def dehydrate_full_title(self, book):
            book_name = getattr(book, "name", "unknown")
            author_name = getattr(book.author, "name", "unknown")
            return '%s by %s' % (book_name, author_name)

In this case, the export looks like this:

    >>> from app.admin import BookResource
    >>> dataset = BookResource().export()
    >>> print(dataset.csv)
    full_title,id,name,author,author_email,imported,published,price,categories
    Some book by 1,2,Some book,1,,0,2012-12-05,8.85,1

Customize widgets
=================

A :class:`~import_export.resources.ModelResource` creates a field with a
default widget for a given field type. If the widget should be initialized
with different arguments, set the ``widgets`` dict.

In this example widget, the ``published`` field is overridden to use a
different date format. This format will be used both for importing
and exporting resource.

::

    class BookResource(resources.ModelResource):

        class Meta:
            model = Book
            widgets = {
                    'published': {'format': '%d.%m.%Y'},
                    }

.. seealso::

    :doc:`/api_widgets`
        available widget types and options.

Importing data
==============

Let's import some data!

.. code-block:: python
    :linenos:
    :emphasize-lines: 4,5

    >>> import tablib
    >>> from import_export import resources
    >>> from core.models import Book
    >>> book_resource = resources.modelresource_factory(model=Book)()
    >>> dataset = tablib.Dataset(['', 'New book'], headers=['id', 'name'])
    >>> result = book_resource.import_data(dataset, dry_run=True)
    >>> print(result.has_errors())
    False
    >>> result = book_resource.import_data(dataset, dry_run=False)

In the fourth line we use :func:`~import_export.resources.modelresource_factory`
to create a default :class:`~import_export.resources.ModelResource`.
The ModelResource class created this way is equal to the one shown in the
example in section :ref:`base-modelresource`.

In fifth line a :class:`~tablib.Dataset` with columns ``id`` and ``name``, and
one book entry, are created. A field for a primary key field (in this case,
``id``) always needs to be present.

In the rest of the code we first pretend to import data using
:meth:`~import_export.resources.Resource.import_data` and ``dry_run`` set,
then check for any errors and actually import data this time.

.. seealso::

    :doc:`/import_workflow`
        for a detailed description of the import workflow and its customization options.

Deleting data
-------------

To delete objects during import, implement the
:meth:`~import_export.resources.Resource.for_delete` method on
your :class:`~import_export.resources.Resource` class.

The following is an example resource which expects a ``delete`` field in the
dataset. An import using this resource will delete model instances for rows
that have their column ``delete`` set to ``1``::

    class BookResource(resources.ModelResource):
        delete = fields.Field(widget=widgets.BooleanWidget())

        def for_delete(self, row, instance):
            return self.fields['delete'].clean(row)

        class Meta:
            model = Book

Signals
=======

To hook in the import export workflow, you can connect to ``post_import``,
``post_export`` signals::

    from django.dispatch import receiver
    from import_export.signals import post_import, post_export

    @receiver(post_import, dispatch_uid='balabala...')
    def _post_import(model, **kwargs):
        # model is the actual model instance which after import
        pass

    @receiver(post_export, dispatch_uid='balabala...')
    def _post_export(model, **kwargs):
        # model is the actual model instance which after export
        pass

.. _admin-integration:

Admin integration
=================

Exporting
---------

Exporting via list filters
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Admin integration is achieved by subclassing
:class:`~import_export.admin.ImportExportModelAdmin` or one of the available
mixins (:class:`~import_export.admin.ImportMixin`,
:class:`~import_export.admin.ExportMixin`,
:class:`~import_export.admin.ImportExportMixin`)::

    # app/admin.py
    from .models import Book
    from import_export.admin import ImportExportModelAdmin

    class BookAdmin(ImportExportModelAdmin):
        resource_class = BookResource

    admin.site.register(Book, BookAdmin)

.. figure:: _static/images/django-import-export-change.png

   A screenshot of the change view with Import and Export buttons.

.. figure:: _static/images/django-import-export-import.png

   A screenshot of the import view.

.. figure:: _static/images/django-import-export-import-confirm.png

   A screenshot of the confirm import view.

Exporting via admin action
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Another approach to exporting data is by subclassing
:class:`~import_export.admin.ImportExportActionModelAdmin` which implements
export as an admin action. As a result it's possible to export a list of
objects selected on the change list page::

    # app/admin.py
    from import_export.admin import ImportExportActionModelAdmin

    class BookAdmin(ImportExportActionModelAdmin):
        pass

.. figure:: _static/images/django-import-export-action.png

   A screenshot of the change view with Import and Export as an admin action.

Note that to use the :class:`~import_export.admin.ExportMixin` or
:class:`~import_export.admin.ExportActionMixin`, you must declare this mixin
**before** ``admin.ModelAdmin``::

    # app/admin.py
    from django.contrib import admin
    from import_export.admin import ExportActionMixin

    class BookAdmin(ExportActionMixin, admin.ModelAdmin):
        pass

Note that :class:`~import_export.admin.ExportActionMixin` is declared first in
the example above!

Importing
---------

It is also possible to enable data import via standard Django admin interface.
To do this subclass :class:`~import_export.admin.ImportExportModelAdmin` or use
one of the available mixins, i.e. :class:`~import_export.admin.ImportMixin`, or
:class:`~import_export.admin.ImportExportMixin`. Customizations are, of course,
possible.

Customize admin import forms
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It is possible to modify default import forms used in the model admin. For
example, to add an additional field in the import form, subclass and extend the
:class:`~import_export.forms.ImportForm` (note that you may want to also
consider :class:`~import_export.forms.ConfirmImportForm` as importing is a
two-step process).

To use the customized form(s), overload
:class:`~import_export.admin.ImportMixin` respective methods, i.e.
:meth:`~import_export.admin.ImportMixin.get_import_form`, and also
:meth:`~import_export.admin.ImportMixin.get_confirm_import_form` if need be.

For example, imagine you want to import books for a specific author. You can
extend the import forms to include ``author`` field to select the author from.

Customize forms::

    from django import forms

    class CustomImportForm(ImportForm):
        author = forms.ModelChoiceField(
            queryset=Author.objects.all(),
            required=True)

    class CustomConfirmImportForm(ConfirmImportForm):
        author = forms.ModelChoiceField(
            queryset=Author.objects.all(),
            required=True)

Customize ``ModelAdmin``::

    class CustomBookAdmin(ImportMixin, admin.ModelAdmin):
        resource_class = BookResource

        def get_import_form(self):
            return CustomImportForm

        def get_confirm_import_form(self):
            return CustomConfirmImportForm

        def get_form_kwargs(self, form, *args, **kwargs):
            # pass on `author` to the kwargs for the custom confirm form
            if isinstance(form, CustomImportForm):
                if form.is_valid():
                    author = form.cleaned_data['author']
                    kwargs.update({'author': author.id})
            return kwargs

    admin.site.register(Book, CustomBookAdmin)

To further customize admin imports, consider modifying the following
:class:`~import_export.admin.ImportMixin` methods:
:meth:`~import_export.admin.ImportMixin.get_form_kwargs`,
:meth:`~import_export.admin.ImportMixin.get_import_resource_kwargs`,
:meth:`~import_export.admin.ImportMixin.get_import_data_kwargs`.

Using the above methods it is possible to customize import form initialization
as well as importing customizations.

MANCHESTER CITY have been given further encouragement they will be able to close out a deal for Porto midfielder Fernando.
The Brazilian reportedly felt a muscle twinge and has been left out of the squad for the club's away game against Madeira on Saturday.
It appears to be mixed news however for the Citizens as Eliaquim Mangala has been named in Porto's provisional squad.
Mangala has piqued the interest of a cluster of clubs this month including Manchester United and he has a sizeable release clause.
But it is believed that United aren't going to make anymore signings this month after they splashed out £37.1 million on Juan Mata.
The Porto duo are expected to have a medical this afternoon, and it remains to be seen whether City can get them through the door before 11pm.

Q: How do I inherit a variable from a parent class? I have a subclass that needs to inherit a method and a variable, and I want to be able to make several instances of the subclass. However, I can't change health's value from the class Glob.
Here is my code:
public class Monster
{
int health;

    public int getHealth()
    {
        return health;
    }
}

class Glob extends Monster
{
    health = 6; //  <- Error
}

A: You cannot just shadow variable of superclass like that. You can do it in constructor though -
class Glob extends Monster
{
    public Glob() {
        health = 6;
    }
}

Kacey Musgraves Announces 2022 Star-Crossed: Unveiled Tour
Billy Dukes Published: August 30, 2021
Adrienne Raquel
Kacey Musgraves will kick off 2022 with more than a dozen live performances during her Star-Crossed: Unveiled Tour. The North American tour begins on Jan. 19 in Minnesota and keeps her busy through February.
In total, 15 tour dates were announced on Monday (Aug. 30). Each stop is at an arena, including Nashville's Bridgestone Arena, where she played during her Oh, What a World Tour in October 2019. The new headlining tour draws its name from the singer's recently announced Star-Crossed album and film, both due Sept. 10. A full list of Musgraves' Star-Crossed: Unveiled Tour dates can be found below. Tickets go on sale for the general public on Sept. 9 at 10AM local time.
Beginning in Saint Paul, Musgraves will hit select cities in the midwest and Canada before running along the east coast, then the southeast on her way through Texas to California. The final stop is in Los Angeles, where she filmed Star-Crossed: The Film. The singer has shared several of the 15 new songs, including "Justified."
attachment-Star Crossed Tour Poster
Musgraves' tour is promoted by AEG Presents, which announced that only ticket holders with proof of COVID-19 vaccination or a negative test within 72 hours of the day of the show will be admitted. The new policy begins on Oct. 1. It's not clear when it will expire.

Best Country Albums of 2021 - Critic's Pick
There have been many creative country albums in 2021, but not all have hit the mark. Artists are more than ever toying with distribution methods and packaging as much as they are new sounds, so you get double and triple albums, Part 1 and Part 2, and digital EPs in lieu of a traditional 10 or 11-song release.
The bar for an EP on this list of the best country albums of 2021 is higher than an LP, but one project did crack the Top 10. Too much music proved to dampen other artist's efforts, although Alan Jackson's first album in years was filled with country music we couldn't turn away from. Where Have You Gone has 21 songs, but somehow no filler.
More than ever, this relied on staff opinion and artistic merit to allow for some parity among major label artists and independents. The 10 albums listed below are not ranked, although the year-end list published in the fall will crown a true best album of 2021.

In Oregon, domestic abusers and meth users are evading background checks and buying guns online in plain sight.
Criminals and domestic abusers are prohibited from buying firearms, but until voters in Washington State passed a bill to close them, loopholes in the law made it easy for them to get guns.
The state of Maine has a strong tradition of gun ownership. And Maine's gun owners know that responsible ownership includes keeping guns out of the wrong hands. That's why 93% of Americans—and the majority of Mainers, regardless of political party—agree: all gun buyers should pass a criminal background check.
Invisible to most Nevadans, an unregulated commerce in firearms continues. And it's facilitated by the same digital platforms driving the state's economic boom.

Jaxson Shull commits to Ohlone College
02/16/2016 12:30 PM -
by Jonathan Hodgson
The Catching Academy is proud to announce that another student has committed to play collegiate baseball. Catching Academy student Jaxson Shull has signed to attend and play at Ohlone College in Fremont, California beginning this fall.
Jaxson Shull is a native of Napa, CA and is currently a senior at Napa High School, where he plays for head coach Todd Pridy. He also plays for coach Don Johns and the Danville Hoots, and was an Area Code Games tryout invitee in July of last year.
Regarded as an outstanding defender, Shull did not commit an error as a junior at Napa High School in 23 games behind the plate. He demonstrated his ability with the bat with the Danville Hoots, hitting .333 with a .429 on-base percentage during the summer.
Shull is an original attendee of the Catching Academy, and has grown under the mentorship of lead instructor, Brett Thomas. He has high praise for Thomas, who is also the CEO & Founder of the Catching Academy, and a former division one catcher (UC Berkeley) and college coach at the College of San Mateo.
"I have been with Brett for almost four years, even before the Catching Academy." Said Shull. "He has had the single most influence on my abilities as a catcher than any other coach. I know that had I not been a part of his program, I would not have recieved the same opportunities to play at the next level."
Shull received interest from multiple schools at both the division one and junior college levels. He ultimately selected Ohlone because of the expectation of excellence at the program, both athletically and academically, as well as the opportunity to play immediately and continue improving. Jaxson fits the bill perfectly for Ohlone head coach Michael Curran, who expects the 4.0 student to compete for a starting role right away.
Academically, Shull will major in business with a concentration in sports management.
The Catching Academy congratulates Jaxson Shull on his commitment to Ohlone College. He has earned every opportunity he has received, and we know he will continue to excel, and get better every day, at the collegiate level.

This group of cases concerns inhuman and degrading treatment of the applicants in penitentiary facilities between 1996 and 2016 (violations of Article 3). In certain cases, the Court also found that there was no preventive remedy and that there were various shortcomings in the functioning of the domestic compensatory remedy (violations of Article 13).
The cases concern the unjustified refusals of the courts to register an association aiming at achieving "the recognition of the Macedonian minority in Bulgaria".

go to Celeb Jihad
CelebJihad? WTF LOL! I've never been more shocked, amused, disgusted, and, ultimately, conflicted when reviewing a website. Yeah, you fuckers know that I look at a lot of weird and whacky smut, but Celebrity Jihad is something completely different. Sound too good to be true? Well, keep reading to find out.Smut Combined with Satire?First off, CelebJihad's most distinctive feature is that is bills itself as a satire website. The site's authors claim, despite all of the skin pics and flicks, that it is not a porn site. Never mind the hours and hours of porn, Celeb Jihad describes itself as…"CelebJihad.com is not a pornographic website, at least officially. However, this Website contains adult content which may include images, text, sounds, and videos of a sexually-explicit nature and are intended for a mature audience, by visiting this website, you understand that the subject matter contained herein may concern matters of sexuality."Yeah, way to skirt around what you actually are. Blog section or no, if you're posting enough hours of porn to last a hospice patient a lifetime, you're a fucking porn site.Anyway, there are a lot of in-depth satire and opinion pieces on the blog section, but to understand you have to follow the character that the writer (or writers) who upload blog posts, and this part of the site is actually a little amusing.As the name might suggest, CelebJihad is a "not-porn porn-ish site", which has been made by Islamic fundamentalists. If you need to read that sentence again, I don't blame you. According to CelebJihad, the site was founded by Durkha Durkha Mohammed who, after being given away to Christians missionaries for having camel spit for brains and later learning about 'evils' of the female flesh from an Islamic guru, eventually settled down with a wife in his home country of Afghanistan.However, tragedy struck Durka when he found his wife reading a People magazine. The horror! Being a virtuous Muslim man, he was obligated to stone his wife to death on the spot. He then moved to America and has now sworn to overthrow the evils of Western celebrity culture by forming a celeb gossip site and launching an all-out digital jihad.Allahu Akbar, indeed.In all seriousness or at least as close as I can be, the author(s) knows how to churn out off-color content.Kind of like someone else I know. ;)Assuming you can navigate the site to the blog section (more on the web design later), if you scroll through the site's blog posts, you'll find ranting and raving posts which sound exactly like something you'd here Osama and his buds bitching about in the caves of Afghanistan.For instance, one article I found reviewed the first Harry Potter movie, Durka writes about the glorification of paganism and even "perverse sexuality." The author suggests that there's lewd shit in the film but continuously implies that then-ten-year-old Daniel Radcliffe is a very handsome guy on the eve of manhood.It's like how I imagine a Pakistani homophobe bitching about how the gays are going to overthrow civilization while getting a lap dance from a Bacha boy.(If you don't know what that is, it's just as fucking creepy as it sounds.)So, yeah. Whoever runs CelebJihad really likes to rip the piss out of radical religious types and write up a few good jokes, too.Celebrity Gossip ColumnsOn the other hand, there is a bunch of fucking shallow gossip, which I think the reader is supposed to take seriously? I don't know, but at best, some of it reads like the immature shit you'd here thirteen-year-old girls would gab about in middle school. At worst, some of the posts remind me of the gossip rags you see in grocery store checkout counters.Apparently, in an attempt to elevate themselves from being just another digital gossip rag, CelebJihad's disclaimer says…"CelebJihad.com is a satirical website containing published rumors, speculation, assumptions, opinions, fiction as well as factual information. Information on this site may or may not be true and is not meant to be taken as fact. Celeb Jihad's owner makes no warranty as to the validity of any claims."So outside of the occasionally funny satire and there is some content with nudes (more on that later), much of the rest of the written content doesn't really have any useful information, isn't funny, or have anything sexy to read or look at.What a fucking waste of time!So to sum up, the blog section is hit or miss, and the rest of the site is sketchy at best.Decent Basic Video Content…Before we get to the super controversial video footage, I'm going to talk about the more vanilla content on the site. There's plenty of stuff which is public domain, at least by default since the celebrities featured, typically don't care that their nudes are already all over the site.To give you an idea, you can see soft-core, grainy footage of Paris Hilton's second sex tape. There are also compilations of pictures and videos of celebrities in sexy scenes like Emilia Clarke's nude and simulated sex scenes from Game of Thrones.It's not bad, but you can get the same stuff elsewhere and for much better quality.Oh yeah, there's also a bunch of stupid photoshopped stuff depicting certain celebrities doing all kinds of dirty things. If you're into decent digitally altered pictures, you might like it, but I'm not really into it.To be honest, this kind of stuff is just weak wank material.…But There's Revenge Porn…Yeah, that's right. And yes, this is what I was building up to and why CelebJihad is so controversial online. Rather than posting original videos of beautiful, big-titted women, the losers running this have uploaded gigabytes of stolen and leaked video and pics of famous women to attract a bunch of ad revenue.Not fucking cool.Oh yeah, and the people who follow this site are a bunch of idiots, too. Occasionally you might find something which is as funny as the better blog posts. But most of it is clearly a bunch of losers who don't have anything better to do than litter the net with even more grammatically FUBARed and seem to get off on trolling each other in the comments section for what must take hours on end.…And Shitty Web DesignI already talked a little about the site's web design, and it is awful.Well, that might be an exaggeration, but the way the site is set up is super sloppy. Trying to find specific videos or celebrities is easy, but that's about the only thing done well. The layout sucks, there are no preview thumbnails, and finding the quality blogs are a pain in the ass.On top of that, damn near every time you click on a link, the page opens up into a new window, and the original tab switches over to a cam site or some other stupid spam.My firewalls are pretty good, so I don't have to worry about my computer getting infected. But I bet that someone who has only basic malware protection could get their machine fucked up after only cruising around the site for a few minutes.Responses to CelebJihadObviously, CelebJihad (often misspelled as "celebrity jihad", "celebrityjihad" and "celeb hijab") has gotten a ton of lawsuits from the lawyers from all over the world. From what I've heard, the site's owners are probably located outside of the United States, though they're probably not in Afghanistan, either.Where ever the site's owners are, if rumors on the interweb are true, CelebJihad's domain register might eventually be subpoenaed, and the site shut down.Summing Up the SiteAs I said, the profane, parody content is pretty funny, and some of the photoshopped pics are rather clever. If I liked this site enough, I'd suggest everyone send samples of this website's posts to ISIS's Twitter page. However, there aren't enough funny posts and too much shallow, gossipy bullshit. If you're one of those shallow asshats who likes that stupid shit, there you go.But the thing that fucks me off about this site is all of the pirated video footage which only enriches the anonymous, greedy fuckers who run CJ and embarrass their victims. On top of that, the jackass who runs this site, don't even own up to be pornographers. Then again, real porn peddlers actually have real talent and hire original talent.

A multitude of dainty flowers appear in springtime and they are golden with a fine speckling of dark orange along with pastel yellow spurs giving an overall effect of amber tones. Elongated heart-shaped leaves have a distinctive stippling of bronze and green when they first emerge, then age to green with spiny edges. One of the finest of hybrid epimediums!

The HARPO Foundation Emerging Artist Fellowship Residency at the Santa Fe Art Institute is a prestigious award established in 2013 to provide an emerging visual artist with strong artistic ability and an evolving practice, the space and time to explore ideas and start new projects in a residency context at a pivotal moment in their professional development.
The residency will take place in September, October, or November 2019. The HARPO Emerging Artist Fellow is not required to engage the 2019 residency theme, "Truth & Reconciliation," but may do so at their discretion. Ultimately, the semi-structured programming and unique environment at SFAI allows the Artist Fellow to be as interactive or private as they wish with other residents.
For more information about the HARPO Foundation and past recipients of the Emerging Artist Fellowship Residency, please visit www.sfai.org and/or www.harpofoundation.org.
This fellowship is open to international applicants who are self-defined under-recognized* visual artists** over the age of 25 and not enrolled in a degree program at the time of the application deadline.
Application deadline is October 1, 2018 (Midnight).
Letters of Recommendation Deadline: October 8, 2018 (Midnight).
The application requires a project proposal, 5-10 work samples, artist biography, CV/Resume, and 2 letters of recommendation from professional references.
In addition to the $35 application fee, SFAI requires a refundable $150 security deposit to be paid upon acceptance.
All other expenses, materials, and equipment are the responsibility of the fellow.
*To determine whether an artist is "under-recognized" the selection committee looks at an artist's resume and overall presence in the field. If they see that the artist has already achieved a certain amount of prominence and recognition because they have (1) presented their work at venues such as major museums, art centers, international biennales, (2) received multiple notable awards and grants, (3) enjoy the representation of a prominent commercial gallery, they would likely not consider the applicant to be "under-recognized" by the field. As a general rule, the HARPO Foundation prefers that their funding go toward providing opportunities and encouragement to artists who have yet to receive this level of support.
**Visual Artists (e.g., Painting, Illustration, Sculpture, Photography, Printmaking). Creative writing, dance, theater, film, digital/new media, performance art, and site specific installation art fall outside the purview of the HARPO Foundation. However, a proposal with an interdisciplinary approach may be considered as long as it has a strong visual art component.

Hydrogen fast track
OGE and RWE present national infrastructure concept "H2ercules"
Hydrogen production, storage and import terminals in the north of Germany to be connected with consumers in the west and south
Plans for up to 1 GW of new electrolyser capacity and 1,500 kilometres of pipeline
Further partners to be connected / large consumers have signalled interest
Essen, 24 March 2022
Germany is facing tremendous challenges in the decarbonisation and diversification of its energy supply. Quick solutions that will ensure security of supply as well as support the path towards climate neutrality are needed. In this context it is essential to ramp up the hydrogen economy as quickly as possible.
In order to speed up the process of building a German hydrogen industry and infrastructure, OGE and RWE jointly developed the national infrastructure concept called "H2ercules". The infrastructure is set to connect electrolysers as well as storage and import facilities in the north of the country with industrial consumers in the west and south of Germany. Additional import routes from the south and east that are currently under development are to be connected by 2030. H2ercules is thus set to become the backbone of a hydrogen infrastructure linking the North Sea coast with southern Germany. The first large companies, such as thyssenkrupp, have signalled their interest in being connected to such a grid.
It is estimated that investments of about €3.5 billion will be needed to implement the project. However, as most of H2ercules can use converted existing natural gas pipelines, the proposal can be implemented significantly more quickly and more cost-effectively overall than infrastructure that is constructed from scratch.
"In order to achieve its climate goals, the industry needs large volumes of green hydrogen – as quickly as possible. RWE is thus planning to construct additional electrolyser capacities in the coastal regions of northwest Germany by 2030. The green hydrogen produced there is then to be transported from the north to the steelworks, chemical plants and refineries in the Ruhr area and southern Germany. Together with OGE we are addressing this challenge and we are planning to build Germany's first hydrogen fast track."
Markus Krebber, CEO of RWE AG
Dr Jörg Bergmann, Chairman of the Board of Management at OGE adds. "The concept is to be seen as a proposal that can be implemented in order to solve the Herculean tasks of decarbonising and diversifying the energy supply. These tasks can only be mastered if companies collaborate across different levels of added value with the support of policymakers to quickly create suitable operating conditions. RWE as a leading power generation company and OGE as a leading company in transporting energy in its gaseous form combine the required expertise and will to shape the future of energy. We are overcoming the chicken-and-egg problem through this very big leap and can thus offer other hydrogen players a solid foundation for their projects."
The roles in the H2ercules project are clearly allocated. RWE wants to construct new electrolysers with a combined capacity of up to 1 GW by 2030 to produce green hydrogen. In addition, RWE is planning to import large volumes of hydrogen. RWE also intends to build H2 ready gas-fired power stations with a capacity of at least 2 gigawatts close to the planned H2ercules route, and for its gas storage systems near the Dutch border to also connect into the hydrogen pipeline. Both are important to create flexible green backup capacities. OGE will ensure that the green hydrogen can reach customers by converting existing natural gas pipelines for hydrogen transport and building new pipelines. In this way, a pipeline network of approximately 1,500 kilometres can be created that fits into the Germany-wide hydrogen network planning. The coordination process for the Gas Network Development Plan (NEP Gas) ensures coordination with the hydrogen activities of the other market players.
H2ercules opens up new opportunities for connecting Germany to major import routes – initially via pipelines in Belgium and the Netherlands, and at a later stage via Norway as well as southern and eastern Europe, in addition potentially via import terminals for green molecules in northern Germany in the future. In this way the project will contribute towards the creation of a European hydrogen market.
The project is open for other partners to participate along the hydrogen value chain. With this integrated approach and an implementation path that is geared towards growth, H2ercules will be able to cover two thirds of the hydrogen demand from the German industrial centres along the recommended route by 2030 – a major step towards a large-scale hydrogen economy. In addition to industrial consumers, smaller companies may also benefit from the project.
Successful implementation of this venture requires the necessary conditions to be in place, the subject of upcoming discussions between RWE and OGE with policymakers.

Pope Saint Cornelius
uCatholic - September 16, 2022
Pope Saint Cornelius (251-253) whose feast day is September 16th. A Roman priest, Cornelius was elected Pope to succeed Fabian in an election delayed fourteen months by Decius' persecution of the Christians. The main issue of his pontificate was the treatment to be accorded Christians who had been apostasized during the persecution.
Pope Saint Gregory The Great
uCatholic - September 3, 2022
Pope Saint Gregory The Great (590-604) is certainly one of the most notable figures in Ecclesiastical History. He has exercised in many respects a momentous influence on the doctrine, the organization, and the discipline of the Catholic Church.
Pope Saint Zephyrinus
uCatholic - August 26, 2022
The pontificate of this first third-century pope was to see a storm of heresy rage around the pontiff, who had to keep a firm hand on the tiller of Peter's barque. According to the "Liber Pontificalis," Zephyrinus was a Roman, the son of Habundius. He ordered that all ordinations, whether of priests, deacons, or simple clerics, should take place before the assembled clergy and laity.
Pope Saint Pius X
Pope St. Pius X (1903-1914) Perhaps nowhere in the history of the Church is there a better example of a man possessed of so many of the saintly virtues—piety, charity, deep humility, pastoral zeal, and simplicity—than in Pope St. Pius X.
Pope Saint Hormisdas
uCatholic - August 7, 2022
Pope Saint Hormisdas (r.514-523) was born at Frosinone in the Roman Campagna. Married before ordination, he had a son, Silverius, who also became pope. As a deacon, Hormisdas had staunchly backed St. Symmachus in his trouble with the antipope Lawrence and the pro-Byzantine faction. Elected with difficulty, St. Hormisdas began his career of peace with victory by receiving back into the Church the last die-hards of the Laurentian schism.
Pope St. Hormisdas
Gloom and storm marked the pontificates of Anastasius II and Symmachus, but on St. Hormisdas the sun of peace and victory shone with cheerful...
Pope Saint Anicetus
uCatholic - April 17, 2021
Pope Saint Anicetus, the 11th pope, succeeded St. Pius towards the year c. 153, and reigned till about 168. He condemned Montanism, conferred with St. Polycarp on the Paschal date controversy, and forbade priests from growing their hair. He was martyred and is venerated on April 17.
Pope Saint Pius V
Pope Saint Pius V (1566-1572) was a Domincan. He called the Council of Trent, Excommunicated Elizabeth I of England for schism, was the patron Palestrina, and organized the Holy League for the defense against the Ottomans at the Battle of Lepanto.
Pope Saint John XXIII
uCatholic - October 11, 2022
Although few people had as great an impact on the 20th century as Pope John XXIII, he avoided the limelight as much as possible. Indeed, one writer has noted that his "ordinariness" seems one of his most remarkable qualities. The date assigned for the liturgical celebration (where authorized) of Blessed John XXIII is not June 3, the anniversary of his death, as would be usual, but October 11, the anniversary of his opening of the Second Vatican Council.

In late August 2017, the Bold. Art. exhibition traveled to Shenzhen, a prosperous Chinese city with over 15 million inhabitants adjacent to Hong Kong and near the Pearl River Delta. The city can be reached by foot, car, subway or ferry from Hong Kong. Elevated to one of UNESCO Creative Cities in 2008 with excellence in design, it was truly a worthy place to host our international art exhibition of the 13 young Asian and Middle Eastern artists who interpreted the theme 'multiculturalism' beautifully. But Shenzhen is a lot more. It is a modern city in Southern China focusing on manufacturing, technology, financial industries, and outstanding shopping malls. To cater to the young crowd who likes the latter, the Bold. Art. exhibition opened its doors to the public at the Yitian Holiday Plaza in the Overseas Chinese Town (OCT). The mall is a shopping paradise and houses offices and the Yitian Westin Hotel.
In addition to the outstanding art pieces, we also displayed our kaleidoscope that attracted quite a bit of people to gaze through and imagine the future.

This foliage fork (clamp) is specifically designed for cleaning out crops, leafs and (rockwool) slabs during the crop rotation. The large gripping opening and pinching force ensure that a lot of volume can be grabbed. The long pins allow the clamp to pierce through the wast. The large take-up results in a minimum of transport movements, allowing an efficient cleanout from the greenhouse. This Clamp forms a perfect combination with our 5400 liter container and Bio Hoppers.
These foliage forks are equipped with a quick hitch system, steel pins and a robust top clamp with two cylinders by default.
Each foliage fork is tailor-made to any type of tractor, wheel loader or forklift.

July 24, 2019 Titus Wu - Newsday
Herbert Klein, a decorated World War II veteran who fought Nazis in Europe and the Japanese in the Philippines, and who cherished his independence, driving his old Toyota Corolla until his final years, died Thursday. He was 96.
Klein, of Oceanside, was surrounded by family when he died of congestive heart failure at Long Island Jewish Valley Stream, his grandson-in-law Daren Lubin, of Malverne, said.
Klein served in the U.S. Army for more than two years, and was awarded several medals, including the World War II Victory Medal and the American Service Medal, his granddaughter Dana Molino, of Malverne, said.
One time, a Nazi came up to him and asked for a cigarette because Klein had some in his shirt pocket. Klein took the cigarettes, crushed them and threw them at the floor. The Nazi walked away, Molino said.
"He was basically tough, so tough that he didn't care," Dana Molino said.
Born Sept. 26, 1922, Klein was raised in the Bronx and attended high school in the area. He met Bernice Klein at a dance and they soon married.
Around the age of 20, he left to fight in the war. After his return, Klein and his wife settled in Flushing, Queens. He joined the trade business, working for import-export company Oxford Resources for nearly 50 years. He became vice president of the company, and retired in 1987.
About 12 years later, Klein and his wife moved to Orlando. In 2003, they moved back to New York, this time to Oceanside. Bernice, his wife of about 68 years, died in 2013.
Family members remembered Klein as selfless and giving. He took them on vacations, Lubin said, and called his daughter several times a day to make sure the great-grandchildren were okay.
"He treated me like a grandson," Lubin said. "He would always speak to me on the phone after work. I work an intense job myself, and he would always calm me down."
Klein also was independent-minded.
"He was 96 years old and still driving," Molino said. "He drove everywhere; he went to the supermarket by himself. He wouldn't let anybody help him."
His 26-year-old Toyota Corolla — a symbol of independence — was so important to him, she said, that he treated it like a Mercedes, inquiring about his car even from his hospital bed.
Klein also enjoyed hobbies such as gambling, traveling and consuming the news. His favorite newspaper was Newsday, a paper he read since his younger days in the Bronx, Lubin said.
Besides his granddaughter and grandson-in-law, Klein is survived by his daughter Roberta Molino, grandchildren Danielle Molino-Lubin and Richard Molino, and two great-grandchildren, all of Malverne.

Q: How to solve ValidatePostSize error in laravel 5.4 I keep receiving this error whenever I try to post a form in a Laravel 5 app.

I tried adding these lines in .htaccess according to this answer:
php_value post_max_size=15M
php_value upload_max_filesize=15M

I also commented out these lines according to this answer
public function handle($request, Closure $next)
    {
//        if ($request->server('CONTENT_LENGTH') > $this->getPostMaxSize()) {
//            throw new PostTooLargeException;
//        }

        return $next($request);
   }

How can I kill size validation on this form?

A: Not sure, but i would try to restart apache after changing .htaccess/php.ini/httpd.conf

An increasingly popular and effective learning process is to use the arts to illustrate the links between leadership, persuasive skill, and values.
In The Persuasive Leader, the authors use their unconventional material to explore themes such as moral leadership, toxic leadership, learning from failures, distributed leadership, and the leader as a counselor. Featuring examples of persuasive leaders and persuasive leadership principles from the performing arts, fine arts, literature, philosophical writings, and biography, this unique book is ideal for executives, organizational leaders, consultants, educators, and MBA students.


Any Singaporean mother worth her salt, reading this blog must agree; it is criminal bringing up children in Singapore under this repressive dictatorial government.
A mother would want the best for her child. Education, confidence and the ability to live free; to exercise their minds to the fullest; the courage to challenge conventional wisdom; to think outside the box even if it is not what Lee Kuan Yew wants to hear; to call a rat a rat when he sees one; in other words, where the young child grows up in full control over his destiny, because of his ability, and not because it pleases Mr. Lee Kuan Yew.
I believe that any normal normal young man, confident of himself and his ability to succeed in a career; would be justifiably offended if told that he must live his life in accordance to the dictates of his government. That he must not question their actions for fear of government reprisals, such as defamation actions and bankruptcy.
Unfortunately in Singapore, the ability to live comes at an unbearable price; unbearable that is, for anyone with any self respect. It is impossible for a child to grow up in Singapore as a child would grow up, for instance in Australia. In Australia, in USA, Germany or any other democratic country; a child is told that being a human being comes with privileges; that is human rights. He is told that George Bush is not not his God; that as long as he is law abiding, he can question authority. His success depends on himself and not because he has not criticized Mr. George Bush. In this atmosphere of freedom to think and question, a child in the west grows up full of confidence, willing to take on challenges and realizing that the sky is the limit for him. Life itself becomes an adventure and full of excitement.
Not so for a Singapore child. Let alone the child; the Singapore parent herself lives in an stifling debilitating atmosphere of fear. Fear of her government. No matter what abuses the government perpetrates against its citizens, such as denying the rule of law and abusing legal process for political ends, she must be careful never to be seen or heard criticizing the government. If ever she did it, this small minded government will retaliate and she may be suffer in more ways than one.
The mother who is already in fear of her government makes sure that her child too grows up that way. Her advice to her child is not to criticise. To be careful no one sees or hears any criticism. Be as quite as possible, pass his exams and get a job, continuing in life being always careful not to offend Lee Kuan Yew, his son or their government.
A child like that grows into adulthood only to live very miserable lives; because there can be no doubt that living daily in fear of Lee Kuan Yew and his government cannot be a pleasant way to live.
The uneducated working classes may not realize what they are missing, since they are usually not aware of their rights. By government design, they are satisfied with what little they get, basic necessities and a little bit more and they are satisfied with that. In their case, ignorance is bliss after all.
But not in the case of educated men and women and their children. Living in fear of anyone, let alone Lee Kuan Yew and his son, must be a miserable way to live. Such people are not satisfied by bread alone. Life for them is an adventure and they want to experience it to the fullest. For such men and women, the more the challenges the more exciting the life. And it is these people that would find life in Singapore miserable.
For them, Singapore is their country, not Lee Kuan Yew's country and Lee being an elected official should take orders from them and not the other way around. They would like to remind Lee Kuan Yew to remember that it is they who are paying his wages through their hard earned taxes. And for their own good, it is about time they came down from their high horses and did what the people wanted, rather than striding all over the place like a bunch of gangsters.
This is how educated capable parents and children would preferably want to live. As proud men and women who refuse to be pushed around, especially not by the likes of Lee Kuan Yew or his son. But you know what the problem in Singapore is. If they did exercise their rights to question authority in Singapore, the Lee family shamelessly retaliates by false cooked up criminal charges and defamation actions brought before compliant judges.
Therefore this becomes an intolerable situation for educated families. What do you do in a case like this? Do you do the right thing and challenge Lee and his son, knowing that if you did, Lee, like a common gangster, will use dirty tricks to make life miserable for you? Or do you do nothing and live like a slave under Lee Kuan Yew; making slaves not only of yourselves but also your children? Or do you pack up and leave Singapore to settle in countries such as Australia?
If anyone even for a moment thinks that those who have achieved success through grovelling at the feet of Lee Kuan Yew are happy, is entirely mistaken. Take Lee Kuan Yew's chosen lawyers like the Sikh who is used to do his dirty work in suing Dr. Chee for defamation and the recently appointed Tamil lawyer as Minster for Law. I have no doubt that they live the most miserable lives imaginable. Both they and Lee Kuan Yew know each minute of the day as to what the arrangement between them is.
The Sikh must be prepared at any moment to carry out any dishonest work that is demanded of him, such as suing innocent people to please Lee Kuan Yew. As for the Tamil Minister, he must be prepared to pass as many unjust laws as demanded by his master Lee Kuan Yew. These are not free men. They are castrated eunuchs who willingly wait each day at Lee's court to do his dirty work. It is a disgusting life. Even if one is paid very well, this is not a job that any self respecting man or woman would want.
If the Singapore mother facing these difficult choices of either staying and becoming Lee's zombie in Singapore; or staying behind and fighting the system to live as free man and women willing to accept the concomitant trials, tribulations and punishment consequent thereon; or not wanting to go through the suffering and just pack up and leave for western democracies.
For any mother who loves her children, this is the difficult choice she has to make. And you have my sympathy for it.
