Different Minds: Gifted Children with AD/HD,
Asperger Syndrome, and Other Learning Deficits
This book focuses on the strengths and problems of gifted children with AD/HD, Asperger Syndrome and/or Nonverbal Learning Disability. In addition to a general description of AD/HD, and Asperger Syndrome, the book also highlights cognitive, creative, emotional, social and moral issues of these unique gifted children. There are also sections on assessment of gifted children and a list of resources.
Endorsement from Dr. Linda Silverman:
I have long awaited the birth of Different Minds, as Dee Lovecky has unparalleled knowledge of the interaction of giftedness with other syndromes. For years, she has served as my mentor on cases that stumped me. In this wonderful book, Dee illuminates giftedness, AD/HD, and Asperger's Syndrome with original insights, astute clinical observations, and a comprehensive review of the literature. The concepts come to life in the delightful vignettes of children found at the beginning and throughout each chapter. Different Minds is rich in theory, research, clinical examples, resources, and in clear, practical strategies for teachers, parents, and therapists.
I wish every parent of a gifted child could read the Introduction and Chapter 1. Every psychological examiner should read Chapter 9 to become aware of the extent of knowledge needed to accurately assess gifted children and highly asynchronous children, who are intellectually advanced but delayed in other aspects of their development. Different Minds is a practical guide for parents and teachers, a handbook for professionals, and should also be a course textbook on understanding and assessing the extraordinary complexities of gifted children with multiple issues. Bravo to Dee for breaking new ground and creating a much-needed resource on giftedness plus.

The Victoria Fire Department has three fire stations which serve the community.
Fire Station No. 1 is the largest of the Victoria Fire Department's three stations and serves as its headquarters. It houses the Administration, Prevention, Training, Mechanical and Suppression offices, as well as Emergency Management. This two-storey, 16,663 square-foot building was constructed in 1958 and has undergone several upgrades in the years that followed. The majority of the fire apparatus is housed in one of the seven vehicle bays here, which include a number of historical pumpers.
In the middle of the vehicle bay floor there is small office which is occupied at all times by an Alarm Room Operator, who provides dispatch and switchboard services for the Victoria Fire Department.
Directly off the apparatus floor are the administration offices which houses three clerks, as well as offices for the Fire Chief, two Deputy Chiefs, the Chief Training Officer and a conference room. The administration office is open weekdays from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Above the administration offices is the Fire Prevention Division. We have one Assistant Chief of Fire Prevention, one Captain Inspector, one Lieutenant Inspector, and four Inspectors who are available weekdays from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
With the exception of a large training room and kitchen, the remainder of the second storey of the building is primarily quarters and offices for the on duty Fire Suppression members. There are three separate dorm rooms, a lounge, showers and a locker area.
On the lower floor is a large mechanical shop which consists of two uniformed members, a Master Mechanic and a Mechanic Technician. The mechanics hold provincial certifications as Commercial Transport Mechanics and Automotive Service Technicians. In addition to the certifications issued by the province, both mechanics are Master Level, Emergency Vehicle Technicians. These certifications are supplemented by attending specialized factory training courses annually and training seminars specific to fire apparatus.
The mechanics perform preventative maintenance service and inspections, minor and major repairs, annual fire pump testing and specialized component diagnostics for the Victoria Fire Department's fleet of 31 vehicles, 1 fire boat and all fire fighting equipment. The mechanical division also provides services for the City of Victoria's Emergency program vehicles, Urban Search and Rescue vehicles and three neighbouring fire department fleets as well.
The Mechanical Division staff provides specialized training to the fire fighters on current and new equipment. When required, the Mechanical Division will also respond to major incidents to the support the suppression members.

of the fire department were met during the design stages.
This building was built to the most up to date seismic standards, and it was also constructed with co-ed dorms and facilities. This hall has two large vehicle bays that houses Ladder Two, Engine Two and one back-up pumper. On the apparatus floor there is also a gymnasium that was funded by the Fire Fighters Benevolent Society. Off the apparatus floor is a large kitchen, training/meeting room and lounge. At the front of the building, there is also a small museum that houses our old steam pumper. On the second level you will find two dormitories and shower facilities.
Hall No. 3 was formerly located in a small two-story brick building that was located at the corner of Dunedin and Douglas Streets. The new replacement hall was designed by architect Ramsey Murray and completed in October 1972. There have been several upgrades made to the hall over the years, one of those being the seismic upgrades in 1991 and again in 2007. In this one-level building, you will find two vehicle bays and a living area that contains an office, kitchen and lounge, as well as dormitories and showers for the crew. The basement has some storage of equipment as well as fire fighter funded exercise equipment.
The back parking lot of this hall is frequently used as a training ground for the suppression fire fighters. There are old vehicles that members practice on with rescue tools and a large four-storey training tower for members to practice multiple skills on. Built in 2007 and based on a design by Victoria fire fighter, Captain Scott Woodburn, this steel tower enables fire fighters to simulate high-rise fire fighting and technical high angle rope rescues, both of which skilled Victoria fire fighters, in partnership with the Saanich Fire Department, use to provide high angle rope rescue service to the Capital Region.

Exciting things on the horizon for lead singer of The Color

Jordan Janzen is excited to share news of a new album being released this year, as well as expecting a second child in the coming weeks.
The Color decided to try something different for their upcoming album being released later this year. In October, the band announced on social media that they were looking for fans' input. The band had roughly 60 songs to pick through, so they asked for help choosing.
"It was a really interesting process as we included some fans in the process of picking songs for the album. We had some decisions made at that point, but we asked them to pick their top five favourites and it did impact the final results," says Jordan Janzen, lead singer of the band.
While it is a different approach, the method was one they don't regret trying.
"It was a really unique, fun, and helpful process," says Janzen.
When it comes to deciding on songs, each member will automatically have a bias to specific ones.
"We are all tied to different songs for different reasons. Sometimes it's because of the emotion we felt in the room, there is a multitude of reasons why you are drawn to something. At the end of the day, our desire is to have it resonate with the people," he says.

Although there is no date for when The Color plans on releasing this new album, Janzen says he believes it will most likely be in the fall. The label the band is on will have the final say.
"We have recorded 10 songs but it kind of depends on how things go south of the border as to whether or not we'll be able to add some more to that. We'd love to but we don't really know," says Janzen.
While The Color has four band members, only two members have a hand in the writing process.
"James Sheils and I are the songwriters. We do a lot of it together and then we also do a lot of songwriting with other people based in Nashville or the US. In this COVID season that meant a lot of writes over zoom."
Janzen shares that he is looking forward to flying down to Tennessee once restrictions lift to do more writes in person.
"We do have a new single coming out March 1, 2021. That will mark the first release off of this new album."
Janzen along with his wife are expecting their second child at the beginning of April.
"We're having a boy. We have a little girl who just turned three and she's excited to get a little brother."

We were given just 36 hours to figure it out. There was the potential for a small break in the clouds early Saturday and as we headed into November, it would likely be one of the last clear sunrises of the year up Seymour.
"Do we go?" we asked ourselves.
But opportunities like this are what we live for and they don't come around often. There was no way in hell we were going to miss it. Sunrise or not, whether it was 2 of us or 200 of us, we'd be up there, waiting on it.
Got to hand it to Tung Ngo – not only for the shot, but for hauling a drone to the top of a mountain... again! Worth every damn second of it.
While the rest of the city was just waking up, wondering what they were going to do with their day, 200+ strong we were on top of the world, waiting on sunrise and living up to our rule of experiencing more by 9AM than most will in their entire day.
200+ strong on just 36 hours notice. That's the type of community we are.

Just a suggestion to help improve gameplay experience for players. Why not add a mechanic to rid ourselves of bad/cheap players? I do try to travel in a group, but sometimes it's not possible to get a full group of 4 together for PvE play, and then we have to deal with players who think Dominion is played like Skirmish and do everything in their power to make sure they pull off their executions as many times as possible while not boosting zones. Why do we have to leave to room to try and rid ourselves of a bad player or an intentional jerk? Give a system to boot players, like room-ownership (Ace Combat Infinity) or vote majority (Killing Floor 2). Or, another possible solution, make non-matchmaking games give out the same experience as matchmaking games. That may be the simplest solution.
Given the state of For Honors P2P system and reliability, I don't think any system that would let us boot players intentionally would be a welcome addition.
We have enough trouble with the game booting people unintentionally, lets not add to that problem just yet.
So, you are alright playing with morons that go out of their way to be annoying?
If the choice is between a moron, and crashing the game, yeah I'll take the moron.
And that's why I normally avoid multiplayer games. I don't want to have to tolerate schmucks. And who says it has to be both? They can fix connectivity and give us a say in who we play with. It's not either/or. If you want a priority on connectivity, fine, by all means. Like I said, Ubi could also just bring up non-matching game rewards up to par with matchmaking games.
You're coming off a little strong there dude. The thing with multiplayer games is that you have to rely on other people, but don't trash them just 'cause they're not playing to your specific standards. I suffer annoying snipers in Battlefield constantly, but hey that's how they play and It won't ruin my game.
They've been trying since day 1, lets just accept that it probably won't get better until after Season 4 when we get dedicated servers.
For the moment, it really is almost either/or with your suggestion. There is a serious and well known bug in the P2P system where if one player quits, there's a risk of the game booting more players, potentially crashing the game.
This happens by accident all the time. Introducing a kick mechanic now would most likely shatter how many games we're able to do. All it would take is 1 vote to crash any game.
When we get dedicated servers, absolutely we need a kick mechanic, it would have spared us all so much pain during the whole AFK debacle. But so long as we have this crazy inconsistent P2P system, we have to hope for basic improvements to that first.
I don't trash them because they don't play to my standards. I trash them because they go out of their way to be annoying. It's not just the kill-stealing. It's ruining your executions then spamming an emote to look like their character is having a seizure. It's running up behind you and hitting you, with no enemy in sight, and you're supposed to on the same team. You don't have to tell me about relying on other players. I am a team player and understand how to play each match type based on the objective. I'm reliable. The players I am referring to are anything but reliable. Do me a favor and don't talk down to me about the nature of multiplayer games. I play very, VERY few multiplayer games because I don't want my game ruined by an immature player who thinks they're being cute and funny. Sorry if that's too strong, but I paid for my game just like they did and I'd like for them not to intentionally ruin it. I wouldn't do that to another player. All I'm asking for is the ability to control my personal gameplay experience without being penalized on rewards.
... I don't want my game ruined by an immature player who thinks they're being cute and funny.

All I'm asking for is the ability to control my personal gameplay experience without being penalized on rewards.Yes, you paid for the game just like they did and they're just having fun the same as you. Seeing as kill stealing, emote spamming and whacking you in the head when no ones around isn't actually hindering your team, giving them the boot is going to intentionally ruin their good time, same thing you're upset about. In a way I'm on your side, that s*** is annoying as all h***. Honestly though, it's harmless. Until friendly fire gets upped and people start team killing for fun, all that stuff realky is harmless. Some people are lousy jerks. It's an aspect of pvp we all learn to just cope with, because its not a big deal.
We love to see groups of players coming together to work as a team in-game. I'll certainly note the suggestion for consideration, but in the meantime I'd recommend simply sending friend invites to the players you'd like to team up with and then re-queue.

Q: Flask-Python. How do you use external module in Flask and passing data to html? I'm building desktop app UI and I'm trying to move everything into Flask so I can just present everything in html/css/boostrap.
But the code below doesn't work.
How do you get found.productId and the rest of loops to display on ali.html?
app.py
from aliexpress_api_client import AliExpress

@app.route('/ali')
def ali():
    aliexpress = AliExpress('1234', 'bazaarmaya')

    data = aliexpress.get_product_list(['productId', 'productTitle', 'salePrice', 'originalPrice', 'imageUrl'],
                                       keywords="shoes", pageSize='40')
    for product in data['products']:
        productId = product['productId']
        productTitle = product['productTitle']
        salePrice = product['salePrice']
        originalPrice = product['originalPrice']
        imageUrl = product['imageUrl']
        founds = print(productId, productTitle, salePrice, originalPrice, imageUrl)

    if founds == founds:
        return render_template('ali.html', founds=founds)

    return render_template('ali.html')

ali.html
{% extends 'layout.html' %}

{% block body %}

         {% for found in founds %}
         {{found.productId}}
         {{found.productTitle}}
         {{found.salePrice}}
         {{found.originalPrice}}
         {{found.imageUrl}}
         {% endfor %}

{% endblock %}

A: The first issue is that print() will return None. So:
founds = print(productId, productTitle, salePrice, originalPrice, imageUrl)

is just equivalent to founds = None. Basically useless.
So, the first thing to do is to give founds a structure. Your options are basically a dict and a list. A list is simplest to work with in your example (but not necessarily your actual code):
app.py
from aliexpress_api_client import AliExpress

@app.route('/ali')
def ali():
    aliexpress = AliExpress('1234', 'bazaarmaya')

    data = aliexpress.get_product_list(['productId', 'productTitle', 'salePrice', 'originalPrice', 'imageUrl'],
                                       keywords="shoes", pageSize='40')
    for product in data['products']:
        productId = product['productId']
        productTitle = product['productTitle']
        salePrice = product['salePrice']
        originalPrice = product['originalPrice']
        imageUrl = product['imageUrl']
        founds = [productId, productTitle, salePrice, originalPrice, imageUrl]

    return render_template('ali.html', founds=founds)

Note: there's a problem either way here. The for loop is going to overwrite data on each loop, so maybe you want a dictionary but you'll need to give it unique keys. Or you define a list beforehand and apppend to it in the loop. This example will only give you the last item from the loop and it's up to you to deal with it accordingly.
Then:
ali.html
{% extends 'layout.html' %}

{% block body %}

         {% for found in founds %}
         {{found}}
         {{found}}
         {{found}}
         {{found}}
         {{foundl}}
         {% endfor %}

{% endblock %}

You can use the . notation if you pass a dictionary to the template and want to access things by key. But there are other problems to address first so this answer runs the risk of spiraling into too much depth. jinja2 syntax (in your templates) is remarkably like regular python.

Our organization was founded in 2009 by Jonathan Foxx, PhD, MBA, who is the Chairman & Managing Director of Lenders Compliance Group, the first and only full-service, mortgage risk management firm in the United States, specializing exclusively in mortgage compliance and offering a suite of services in residential mortgage banking for banks and non-banks. Jonathan's vision was to establish an independent association of residential mortgage compliance professionals.
The goal of management is to provide a forum for the education and interaction of compliance professionals in a safe and sustainable way, in order to share a variety of perspectives relating to federal and state regulations and laws as they pertain to residential mortgage compliance. The association would also discuss and develop innovative and balanced solutions to critical mortgage industry challenges.
In order to build ARMCP, Jonathan formed the group on LinkedIn. At the time of the launch of its new website, in April 2019, the association had grown to 1,600 members! The long-term project of ARMCP is to be a leading resource for compliance professionals, servicing its members through a comprehensive array of capabilities and tools, enabling members to interact with one another in achieving a better understanding of their compliance responsibilities, most especially in the context of real estate financing in ever-changing regulatory environments.
If you would like to participate in managing the needs of ARMCP or join its Steering Committee, please contact Jonathan Foxx at info@ARMCP.org. We are currently evaluating several excellent relationship opportunities for members who want to assist in advancing our mission.

Q: Multiple context queries inside a query So, i've got a problem with querying a specific data from my database. Lets say i have two contexts containing objects of type:
TrackPoint {
    int Id;
    double Latitude;
    double Longitude;
    int TrackId
{

Track {
    int Id;
    double MinLatitude;
    double MaxLatitude;
    double MinLongitude;
    double MaxLongitude;
}

Every track has some amount of TrackPoints assigned. I want to query all trackpoints, whose tracks intersect with other track (areas constructed from min, max values overlap).
Im trying to achieve this within only one query, as the performance is important. I've managed to do this with the query below, but the execution time is not so good. Im sure there are better ways to this. I would appreciate any advice.
var similarTrackPoints = Context.TrackPoints.Include("Track").Where(
    tp =>
    Context.Tracks.Where(t => t.Id == tp.TrackId).FirstOrDefault().MinLongitude <= track.MaxLongitude &&
    Context.Tracks.Where(t => t.Id == tp.TrackId).FirstOrDefault().MaxLongitude >= track.MinLongitude &&
    Context.Tracks.Where(t => t.Id == tp.TrackId).FirstOrDefault().MinLatitude <= track.MaxLatitude &&
    Context.Tracks.Where(t => t.Id == tp.TrackId).FirstOrDefault().MaxLatitude >= track.MinLatitude)
.ToList();

A: You should model your relationships in your entities. Then you can more easily construct a lambda or linq query that results in a proper query that is executed DB Server side.
public class TrackPoint
{
    public int Id { get; set; }
    public double Latitude { get; set; }
    public double Longitude { get; set; }
    public double TrackId { get; set; }
    public Track Track { get; set; }
}

public class Track
{
    public double Id { get; set; }
    public double MinLatitude { get; set; }
    public double MaxLatitude { get; set; }
    public double MinLongitude { get; set; }
    public double MaxLongitude { get; set; }
    public ICollection<TrackPoint> TrackPoints { get; set; }
}

Context.TrackPoints.Include("Track")
    .Where(_ =>
        _.Track.MinLongitude <= track.MaxLongitude &&
        _.Track.MaxLongitude >= track.MinLongitude &&
        _.Track.MinLatitude  <= track.MaxLatitude &&
        _.Track.MaxLatitude  >= track.MinLatitude)
    .ToList();

I did not include relationship mappings in the code above but you can map the relationship using either fluent or attribute notations similar to other EF mappings.

Celestial Navigations: 5 Conceptual Vintage Science Films by Al Jarnow
Animation Spotlight: The Falcon
How the Bit Was Born: Claude Shannon and the Invention of Information
Polymorphic Computing, Explained in Vintage Stop-Motion (1959)
What wooden boxes and stick figures have to do with predicting the future of the social web.
Though the world didn't see its first polymorphic computer until 2007, the concept of "polymorphic computing" predates it by nearly half a century. In this lovely stop-motion animation from 1959, found on The Internet Archive and now in the public domain, John Salzer illustrates the principles of polymorphic computing, first outlined by technology pioneer Simon Ramo, and, in the process, presages subsequent landmarks in the evolution of technology, from parallel processing to peer-to-peer filesharing to cloud computing to the very architecture of the Internet — a striking case of two contemporary fixations, the social web and stop-motion animation, converging long before either had reached critical cultural mass.
This is distributed control, distributed memory, distributed arithmetics, distributed everything. And it makes sense. Because now more than one guy can be using the system at the same time."
Also curious to note is how cluelessly reflective the film is of the fundamental biases of the era, what with its male-centricity (hey there, computing "guys") and its analogies to the telephone as the base-level, universal standard for communication.

Concentration and consolidation : how chain ownership affects newspaper front-page content
Brown, Kyle
Brown-Kyle-Research.pdf (388.5Kb)
Ownership by newspaper chains in the United States has become the norm, rather than the outlier, in the past half-century. While proponents of this model of ownership claim that chain newspapers are no different from independently owned papers in terms of their dedication to local coverage, research has consistently shown that newspapers that are part of a group are more likely to converge in their editorial opinions and syndicate news articles among their holdings, suggesting that chain ownership has a profound effect on the outcomes of city newspapers' content. Those effects have likely accelerated in an era when newspaper chains are increasingly cutting newsroom staff and relying more heavily on consolidating production resources. Through a quantitative content analysis of front pages downloaded from Newseum.org, this research study investigates the relationship between the size of newspapers' parent companies and the amount of original news content on their front pages. This study was able to conclude that in general, newspapers owned by larger chains had smaller proportions of original news on their front pages, and newspaper chains had smaller proportions of original news in states where they had a higher concentration of ownership.

Industry Qualifications (IQ) welcomes the recent announcement by the General Medical Council, concerning new standards for doctors carrying out cosmetic procedures. IQ, who contributed to both the Keogh Review and Health Education England Report, supports the increasing focus on the needs for knowledge and skills to be assessed within a defined framework. Whilst regulation of the industry would be preferable, the implementation of safeguarding measures and provide patients with the information required to make an informed choice are beneficial.
The Health Education England guidelines and indeed the work of the GMC in relation to the medical sector, are important steps to improving patient safety. However, in addition to the independent assessment of skills and knowledge, consideration should also be given to whether operating procedures are safe and subject to sufficient medical control.
IQ has been concerned that the two competing sectors do not support contentions from either side concerning safety and capability and there is an absence of any significant data on accident rates to support either argument.
IQ works with a number of centres to offer customised qualifications within the beauty sector, actively working with our customers to implement HEE guidelines.

Image Wizard is a great program for searching for files on the Internet. A couple neat features are a search history so that you can quickly re-run previous searches that you entered with a single tap, as well as being able to easily limit your searches to a particular website. Another good feature is a "safety mode" which controls if your search results are filtered or not. The safety mode can be turned on and off via the settings screen.
Here are some search criteria you can try to find some interesting images. Turn off safety mode to get the most images back. Remember, once you enter a search, you can tap on Recents to see what you've searched on in the past, and with a single tap re-run that search.
We'll be adding more search terms as we find them, so come back often and see what's new!

more about the proposed new province
on Tuesday, 18 November 2008 at 9.17 am by Simon Sarmiento
categorised as Anglican Communion
Updated again Tuesday evening
Three reports that relate to the announcement made yesterday:
Living Church Primates Hold Key to New Province's Recognition
Anglican Journal Anglican Network in Canada pushes for creation of North American province
Stand Firm Archbishops Anis, Nzimbi, Akrofi: We Will Recognize the New North American Province
Tuesday evening updates
Three more reports on this:
Covenant A New "Province" in North America: Neither the Only Nor the Right Answer for the Communion by Ephraim Radner
Washington Times Breakaway Episcopalians to unveil constitution by Julia Duin
Episcopal Café A new province: who makes the call? by Jim Naughton
Late Tuesday evening update
Anglican Journal Plans to create a conservative province 'disturbing,' says primate
Pluralist
Membership is up to the ACC and then needs two thirds of Primates:
1. The Council shall be constituted with a membership according to the schedule hereto. With the assent of two-thirds of the Primates of the Anglican Communion, the council may alter or add to the schedule…
So the ACC *may* do something and such *needs* primates. The ACC does the walking, the primates are the mountain to climb.
Mark Harris is surely right about this.
Merseymike
Just one more indication that there will be a split on a global level within Anglicanism.
The CofE simply can't be part of a hardline evangelical church whilst it retains is national place, and there is certainly no majority for the loss of those privileges.
Ultimately, the CofE has to protect itself, not a 'Communion' which barely exists as a united entity.
thomas bushnell, bsg
merseymike speaks the truth. what is so bothersome is that Rowan Williams does not seem to recognize that the same is true of canada and the united states.
Jim Naughton
Like Pluralist, I am skeptical of the Living Church's interpretation of the ACC's constitution.
http://www.episcopalcafe.com/lead/primates/a_new_province_who_makes_the_c.html
So, Bishop Anis of the Middle East is signing on to those who would try to split and supplant the Episcopal Church? If so, I know to whom I AM NOT contributing funds this coming Good Friday!
– Kurt, on Tuesday. –
Yes, the very same bishop who avoided agreement to the ACC's determination to accept TEC's desire to remain within the Anglican Communion after ther Dar es Salaam Primates' Meeting. With prelates like this championing the GAFCON cause one needs to be watchful about future elections to the Episcopate.
"As a member of the Covenant Design Group, committed to a particular work of providing a new framework for faithful communion life in Christ among Anglicans, I want to be clear about how the pressing forward of this new grouping within its stated terms poses some serious problems:" – Ephraim Radner – Avid web-watchers will be aware that the author of this article on the newly-established site of 'Covenant', Dr. Ephraim Radnor, now a member of the Covenant Design Group, once withdrew from the 'Global South' web-site because of its rabid antipathy towards the leadership of Canterbury in the world-wide… Read more »
Ford Elms
"If so, I know to whom I AM NOT contributing funds this coming Good Friday!"
So, just because you don't like what a bishop does, you'll deprive this diocese of funds to help the poor and destitute? That's GAFCON behaviour! The work of the Church is not the work of one man, and the poor are no less poor because their bishop doesn't like gay people or liberals.
Malcolm+
The creation of a new province requires the assent of the Anglican Consultative Council (presumably by a simple majority) and of a two-thirds majority of the Primates. There are 38 provinces. Effectively, this means 13 "no" votes puts the kaibosh to the schismatics' scheme. – Aotearoa, New Zealand & Polynesia – Australia – Brasil – Canada – Central America – Ireland – Japan – Mexico – Scotland – Southern Africa – TEC – Wales That's 12. One more puts an end to it. Of the list that follows, I'm not as sure – but I would be very surprised if… Read more »

Whatever this "New North American Province" will be, it WON'T be *Anglican*.
Those hierarchs who recognize it, will putting themselves on the same moving-sidewalk marked "OUT".
Lord have mercy!

"The work of the Church is not the work of one man, and the poor are no less poor because their bishop doesn't like gay people or liberals"
That's true, but "the poor" aren't just helped by the church. There are many other organisations you can give the same money to. Some of those don't use it for anti gay propaganda either, or for financing world tours of hate-spouting bishops.
When this church accepts me as a full and equal member, I shall finance it again. Until then, the same money goes to charities.
'"The work of the Church is not the work of one man, and the poor are no less poor because their bishop doesn't like gay people or liberals'"
"When this church accepts me as a full and equal member, I shall finance it again. Until then, the same money goes to charities."–Erika Baker
Well said, Erika!
""the poor" aren't just helped by the church." True, secular organizations tend to do better social work than the Church as whole, likely because there aren't as many segments of secular social justice organizations that are obsessed with whether or not the recipients of their help are actually worthy of that help. But, our diocese is now partnered with the Diocese of Belize, which is under the omophorion of Drexel Gomez. (If they're going to claim to be 'orthodox', we can at least use orthodox terminoloy, no?) Our CLB battalion is preparing now for a trip to that diocese to… Read more »
"Do we refuse to give it to them because their primate's fear of change has led him to hate fags and liberals? "
Oh no, if you can be sure that all the money raised goes towards the project, then that's an excellent way of giving.
But if it's likely that some ends up financing the Primate's next jaunt to a GAFCON follow up, then count me out.
Robert Ian Williams
Central Africa will not vote for it..for the Church of England in South Africa has churches in its territory…and if the Anglican Church of North America is recognised, they are next on the list.
penwatch
I don't know what all the fuss is about? It's just another North American breakaway church. That part of the world is full small churches all claiming exclusive truth – it's how the culture works.
I'll give it 18 months before it breaks up into warring sub groups and 24 before they run out of money to pay their supporting African Provinces.
Ren Aguila
Just a reminder: the Church is bigger than any of the funding politics people engage in. Especially those who treat stewardship as a consumer choice rather than a Christian obligation. The attitudes I'm reading here are as petty and petulant as those of the other camp.
The Diocese in Jerusalem is partnered with one of the California dioceses in the ECUSA, the Diocese of Los Angeles. Now after the vocal support given to the anti-Prop 8 forces by the Episcopal bishops in California, do you think that partnership will be dissolved?
With the present mess in Central Africa, with no Primate and no capacity to elect one, it may not be possible for Central Africa to express an opinion one way or the other.
Of course, in assembling the necessary 2/3 (26 Primates) support, a non vote is the same as a no vote.
Interesting aside…..Reformed Episcopal orders are not recognised by the Church of England and were dismissed at lambeth 1880…so will the new province re-ordain this grouping?
"so will the new province re-ordain this grouping?"
As long as they are not "Librulls", I'm sure their orders are valid, Nag's Head or no.
Walsingham
@Robert Ian Williams:
If not, then it would be further evidence of the complete absurdity of the whole exercise. The FOCA people would forfeit any claim to catholicity, even the most tenuous — and all the more perplexing why +Iker and company are even remotely involved in this.
"The Diocese in Jerusalem is partnered with one of the California dioceses in the ECUSA, the Diocese of Los Angeles. Now after the vocal support given to the anti-Prop 8 forces by the Episcopal bishops in California, do you think that partnership will be dissolved?"–Ren Aguila
I doubt it will be dissolved; unless it is dissolved by the bigots in Jerusalem.
"all the more perplexing why +Iker and company are even remotely involved in this." Well, their much touted "orthodoxy" is not based on any traditional definition of the word, but rather seems based on hatred of liberals and gays, and possibly women. Nothing, not even Christology, is more important in defining their "orthodoxy" than these. All that remains is to rub their noses in this hypocrisy at every opportunity. Not that it'll make a difference. I really can't help but think that thier "catholicity" is based on nothing more than a love of smells, bells, and funky brocade dresses. Is… Read more »
Let's be careful how we characterize the Church in Jerusalem? While the homophobe Anis is its Primate, its bishop, Suweil Dawani, I understand exercises considerable autonomy (and NOT in lockstep w/ Anis—hence his objection GAFCON meeting there!).
I, for one, will not withhold my Good Friday offering to the Church in Jerusalem, unless I hear evidence that it's actually the church *there*, and not just the bigoted primate, who has been denying and denouncing my LGBT people.
drdanfee
Dr. Radner is simply amazing, though I confess I find little about his remarks that is genuinely eirenic. He likes to sound big tent, but Radner is clearly not really big tent. He is as entangled in new Anglican policing and punishment as anybody else, but he wants the full weight of a conservatively realigned global communion, not much left but rightwing top down stuff, to be thrown behind such policing and punishment. His presence on the covenant commission is as neocon daft as is Gomez chairing it. Neither one of them has any heart at all for human family-based… Read more »
I, for one, will not withhold my Good Friday offering to the Church in Jerusalem, In the link to Giles Fraser's article on the thread "Church Times on NEAC", he refers to Evangelical parioshes witholding their parish share to the diocese as bully boy tactics, and he's right. How many Church projects are acceptable to everybody?

That call is up to your conscience, JCF. But don't you think that Bishop Anis conforms to local intolerance just as liberals like Bishop Bruno conform to local tolerance? If Anis' diocese were not bigoted, I doubt that he would be so, yes?
"…I can't see my way clear to putting restrictions on how the Church spends the money I give, or of refusing to give because I don't like something the Church is doing. Perhaps it's just because I have been so scathing about conservatives who do this, and I agree that it is a bullying tactic, that I can't now take part in it."–Ford Elms Fine, Ford, if that's the way you feel about it. For me, however, it's a lot of silliness to expect conservatives to fund liberal projects and groups with whom they disagree. It's even more absurd, in… Read more »
"my LGBT people." I just caught this. I don't consider LGBT people "my people". I cannot see my sexuality as in any way an ethnicity. I'm quite confident and happy with my ethnic identity, and I have often felt quite alienated in gay contexts as a result of that, actually, since what I consider my ethnic identity isn't all that well respected by the local gay community. So, oddly, I have been in a position where I have felt like I am excluded in some sense by the gay community because of what I would call my ethnicity. Maybe this… Read more »
Tobias Haller
Please note that Anis is the primate, and he is in Egypt, not Jerusalem. Bishop Dawani of Jerusalem is a good friend to the Episcopal Church. The Good Friday Offering is used for medical, educational and relief outreach programs, not support for the bishops. This is one of the most efficient fund-raising efforts in the Episcopal Church, and there is almost no overhead in cost related to its gathering and distribution, so it is well worth supporting.
Robert Ian Williams wrote: "Reformed Episcopal orders are not recognised by the Church of England and were dismissed at Lambeth 1880…"
This is a right decision. But why does the Church of Nigeria recognize them?
http://rechurch.org/recus/recus/nigeria.html
"since what I consider my ethnic identity isn't all that well respected by the local gay community."
Help me out here, Ford. Are you Nigerian or Torontonian? Or maybe from Fogo? (Another NF placename came to mind, but the ensuing humour would inevitably have been too crude.)
"why does the Church of Nigeria recognize them?"
Because the validity of orders is purely and only a function of how much the person in orders despises LGBTQs.
"Bishop Dawani of Jerusalem is a good friend to the Episcopal Church. The Good Friday Offering is used for medical, educational and relief outreach programs, not support for the bishops."–Tobias Haller
Well, if that's the case, Fr. Tobias, maybe I will give them a nice Good Friday offering after all. I just don't want to fund bigots because of some kinda liberal guilt trip. Others may be comfortable with liberal guilt but that's just not me.
"Are you Nigerian or Torontonian? Or maybe from Fogo?" Neither, a French Shoreman, actually. There's been a quiet cultural revolution in these parts, my generation, the first born post Confederation, grew up being told we ought to be ashamed of our culture, our language, and where we came from. We refused to do so. The result is that we have gone from a time when the only people who cared about our traditional culture were labelled as freaks to a time when young people no longer feel any shame about being from here.

Boycott's celebration dinner raises over £50,000 for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance.
The exclusive dinner, which was held at his home in Boston Spa, was organised to celebrate the special milestone in his cricketing career and to raise money for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance, of which Geoffrey is a Patron.
Around 180 people attended the dinner, which was hosted in a marquee in the garden of the home where he lives with his wife Rachael, and attended by friends, associates and supporters of the cricket legend.
Geoffrey commented "This was a very special anniversary for me – I was the 18th Batsman in the history of the game to score a hundred first class centuries, but the first to do so in a Test Match. I knew we needed to do something special to mark the occasion, and as a Patron of the Yorkshire Air Ambulance I couldn't think of anything better than a celebration dinner at our home to raise money for the Charity. I left it to my wife Rachael to organise, and what a splendid job she did. It was a cracking night!"
Kevin Connelly, best known for his appearances on the popular TV and radio show 'Dead Ringers' compered the evening, and an auction was run by Yorkshire auctioneer Caroline Hawley, best known for her appearances on BBC's 'Bargain Hunt' and 'Flog It'. Six 'money can't buy' prizes raised over £22,000 alone.
The pinnacle of the evening, was Geoffrey taking to the stage with long-time friend, and BBC Look North presenter, Harry Gration, to talk about the highs and lows of his cricketing career, and re-live that moment at Headingley 40 years ago. Archive film footage was shown spanning Geoffrey's cricket career, and included a recent stint in the media when fellow cricket commentator Jonathon Agnew played a prank on him over the special anniversary live on air.
The catering management of the evening came from the Devonshire Arms at Bolton Abbey, who also have adopted the YAA as their Charity of the year for the last two years. The hotel went above and beyond on the evening by donating a further £1,000 to the event, when the initial figure raised was £49,000, bringing the total to over £50,000.
Adam Dyke, General Manager of the Devonshire Arms added: "It was both a privilege and a pleasure for 'The Dev' to cater for such an amazing event – a Yorkshire evening good 'n' proper….. supporting our chosen Yorkshire charity, as well as paying tribute to one of Yorkshire's most iconic sporting personalities, Geoffrey Boycott. He and his wife, Rachael, are such generous hosts and support the charity so well with their tireless input and dedication."
The evening was supported by many wonderful companies such as Laurent Perrier UK, who donated the champagne, Bleikers of Catterick who gave smoked salmon for the starter, Pontefract based Dovecote Park who donated the beef for the main course, Bettys and Taylors of Harrogate who supplied Geoffrey's favourite brown bread ice-cream, along with their famous coffee and tea, Wensleydale Creamery from Hawes, who supplied the cheese course, oatcakes and chutneys, Whittakers Chocolates of Skipton who supplied the after dinner mints, Hull based Aunt Bessie's who donated the Yorkshire puddings, water from Huddersfield based Ice Valley water and local beer from Rudgate Brewery, just down the road near Thorpe Arch. Philip & SallyAnn Hodson generously sponsored the wine and beer for the evening too.
Peter Sunderland, Chairman of the YAA also added "This really was an exceptional evening for the YAA. To raise over £50,000 in a few small hours for the YAA is just phenomenal. We really cannot thank Geoffrey and Rachael enough for organising the evening, and making us their beneficiary. Geoffrey is a wonderful Patron of the Charity, and Rachael is an equally wonderful ambassador – we were privileged to have been involved in what was a most special evening. We would also like to congratulate Geoffrey on the anniversary of his hundred first class centuries – a truly marvellous achievement."
A total of over £50,000 was raised for the YAA from the evening.


6/12 Season Two, Episode Eight: Affair at Bromfield Hall-Scarecrow and Mrs King | "Just walk with me.."
Amanda: well, you really should be resting.
Lee: Amanda I am not Jamie, I am not Philip..
Lord B to Amanda: Quick thinking! Well done!!
Amanda: awh well thank you very much.
Lord B thanks Amanda! Once again doing what Lee should have done! Lee learn from Lord Bromfield and repeat "Well Done Amanda or thank you Amanda" It won't kill ya!! Great to see Amanda get some encouragement.
He's not a Lord anymore? What cheek! Off with his head!
Isn't it delicious to see Lee in a tux, standing in front of a knight's shiny armour???? If that's not a subliminal message I don't know what is!!! ROFL!! we were only commenting recently (was it while walking through our man in tegernsee?) that Lee has White Knight syndrome (WKS ) when it comes to Amanda! tee hee.. It is wonderful to watch this, knowing Lee indeed does fulfil the role ( in all ways!!!) of Amanda's Knight in Shining Armour! we just have to wait a few seasons to see it I sometimes think Lee uses his tuxedo like it's an armour..
.. I'd keep them away from Phillip and Jamie.
…but I daresay they did their share of damage in their own time.
[ What a coincidence! Just like Lee's Tuxedo!! 😉 ] I am sooo distracted by the strictly decorative Tux.. this episode? err it is now one of my favourites!
Lord B: you know, it's a great shame… that you didn't actually see that photographer in the act. (Amanda nods, she's so diplomatic!) If you had done, we could have brought charges against him.
Amanda: Why are you so sure that it was the photographer?
Lord B: well who else could it be? I checked him out….
Lee: Yes, yes . I still think it's a little out of character.
Lord B: You care to elaborate on that?
Lord B: are you quite sure you want to go to this retched party Mr Stetson?
Lord B looks away and starts doubting whether he should go.. Lee quickly gives Amanda that look again – LOL she is starting to get use to them!! and she sees Lee wants her to back him up in his enthusiasm for going to the party! tee heee… Amanda is learning Lee well! It's very cute watching the penny drop with Amanda!
Amanda: Ohh I'm looking forward to it too!
Lord B: Oh are you?
Lord B: ohh well, then in that case, we shall spend no more time in this dusty armoury.
Lee read Lord B well, he knew he was a gentleman, and if Amanda wanted to go to the party – then they would be going to the party! Go Lee! Now if only he could learn Amanda!! he is trying..but being so unique..it will take a few more seasons I think Ha!!
Well, with all this tuxedo goodness on display.. I really must pace myself! I shall finish up there for now.. I would love to hear your thoughts or experiences of this tuxedo err I mean episode.. Thanks for reading! back with more soon..
There's just something about a man in a tux……even a not so gorgeous man looks good in a tux…..but….when you are a Greek god and then put on a tux…..zowie….wowie….my heart is doing a somersault…..my breathing is laboured….I'm a mess! How does KJ do it? I couldn't be around BB in a tux and utter a single line coherently.
My explanation for Amanda calling Lee "Mr. Stetson" and his remarks about her feeling responsible: Yes, they are supposed to be pretending to be more than employer-employee, per LB's suggestion, BUT remember that LB thinks they really ARE just work associates. So in his presence, Lee and Amanda need to maintain that cover story. But Amanda can't help showing how she cares for Lee – the fussing over his shoulder – so he has to produce a rationale for her concern that kind of works in the context of an employer/employee relationship.
And yes, Lee looks tasty in a tux.
Lee is reading an awful lot into Compson but I can see his logic. Here is a man who makes a living taking seedy photographs. Kill the target and your job is kinda of redundant.
IWSOD, can we save these photos so we can use them as wallpaper or screen savers on our computer?
Great to hear from you all! sounds like Thanksgiving has been a busy time for you all! I am glad you stopped by before we got to the next post – the big ' Touching down by the Thames' scene 😉 I REALLY want to hear your thoughts!!!
I do like Amanda's dress here. It's so lovely on her. Lee in the tux – handsome as usual.
Lord Bromfield is playing the long-suffering husband, I think. He's not one to be social, but his wife is, so he goes along. He'd much rather sit and chat with Lee and Amanda in a library or something – which is why he's blind to his wife's shenanigans. And, it is also why he was so easily brought into this scandal.
Could this be a warning about Neglecting those close to us?? ahem????!! Also, the whole 'ridiculous' scandal is very dismissive of Amanda's passionate side..[she is not just 'practical' ] soooo I wonder if they are hinting here.. hmm just pondering that one.. if you have any thoughts on this or ideas – please share! Input is fab! byeee for now!
Okay, I rewatched this epi last night and I gotta say I am rather disappointed that Lee is so condescending to Amanda. It's always bugged me in this ep but moreso now for some reason. H doesn't seem to trust her instincts in this ep like he had in previous ones. He is forgiven with the tux butI gotta say I love the hair!
Or my keyboard woes could be caused by it shorting out because of me drooling on it. Tux! Tux! Tux! Tux!


Old Dominion's Conference USA tournament title hopes ended Friday with a 57-49 semifinal loss to Western Kentucky.
The Monarchs (25-7) seem likely to continue their campaign in the National Invitation Tournament.
Third-seeded WKU (24-9) advanced to its first C-USA championship game. The Hilltoppers will face fourth-seeded Marshall (23-10) at 8:30 p.m. Saturday at The Star in Frisco, Texas.
WKU's Justin Johnson had a game-high 13 rebounds and 19 points on 7-of-12 shooting. Taveion Hollingsworth chipped in 11 points. Lamonte Bearden had seven points and four assists, and he sank a 3-pointer to send the Hilltoppers into halftime up by nine.
Trey Porter matched Johnson's game-high 19 points in 28 minutes for the Monarchs. Brandan Stith had 10 rebounds, eight points and two blocks. Ahmad Caver contributed 10 points, three assists and three steals.
ODU led 11-6 before a 17-2 run by the Hilltoppers.
In the second half, Old Dominion cut the deficit to two at the 14:12 mark. A dunk by Williamsburg's Xavier Green brought the Monarchs within one and prompted WKU into a timeout.
A Stith jumper handed Old Dominion a 41-40 lead, but WKU regained command. Johnson hit his second 3-pointer of the game, creating an eight-point lead with just less than two minutes to play.
In the first semifinal, Jon Elmore scored 26 points and drained a timely 3-pointer after a seemingly comfortable lead disappeared as Marshall (23-10) held off Southern Miss 85-75.
Ninth-seeded Southern Miss (16-18), which toppled two-time defending champion and No. 1-seeded Middle Tennessee 71-68 in overtime in the quarterfinals, put a scare into Marshall. The Golden Eagles whittled a 24-point gap down to 71-65 with three minutes left. That's when Elmore stepped up to hit the big 3-pointer, with 2:13 remaining, to blunt the USM rally. Marshall was 10 for 10 at the line in the last 1:14.
Elmore was 7 of 7 at the line and made five 3-pointers with nine rebounds and nine assists.
Atlantic 10 quarterfinals: Jeff Dowtin scored 18 points, Jared Terrell added 16 and top-seeded Rhode Island beat VCU 76-67 in the Atlantic 10 Conference tournament quarterfinals in Washington.
Rhode Island (24-6), ranked 25th nationally, snapped a two-game slide as it began its title defense.
Justin Tillman had 23 points and 15 rebounds for eighth-seeded VCU (18-15), which lost to URI in the conference tournament for the second consecutive season. The Rams saw their state-record seven-year streak of qualifying for the NCAA tournament end — it began with a stunning Final Four appearance in 2011.
It wasn't an easy afternoon for URI,which won its first 13 Atlantic 10 games before dropping three of its last five regular-season contests. After building a nine-point lead in the first 11 minutes, URI held a 36-33 edge at the break.
VCU led 59-58 before Dowtin hit a 3-pointer to put Rhode Island ahead for good with more than five minutes to play. He added another basket and a vital rebound moments later to help keep VCU from reclaiming the lead.
Stanford Robinson's 3-pointer with 2:34 remaining pushed Rhode Island's advantage to 66-59, and VCU never cut the margin to fewer than five the rest of the way.
In the second quarterfinal, Nick Robinson led a balanced attack with 14 points, Taylor Funk had a double-double and fourth-seeded Saint Joseph's pulled away for a 68-49 win over fifth-seeded George Mason.
Funk had 12 points and 10 rebounds, James Demery had 12 points off the bench and Shavar Newkirk added 13 points for the Hawks (16-15), who face Rhode Island in the semifinals.
Saint Joseph's increased a 26-25 halftime lead to 16 points midway through the second half, but the Patriots (16-17) had a 9-0 run to get within single digits with five minutes to go. In the last four minutes, the Hawks were 9 of 10 from the free-throw line, closing with a 16-6 run.
Jaire Grayer had 12 points and 13 rebounds for George Mason, which went 2 of 25 from distance and shot worse than 30 percent overall.
On the other side of the bracket, Matt Mobley hit a tournament-record nine 3-pointers and scored 21 of his 29 points in the second half as St. Bonaventure pulled away for its 13th win in a row, beating Richmond 83-77.
Mobley was 10-of-14 shooting and Courtney Stockard made 8 of 9 from the field and finished with 19 points, five assists and three steals for No. 2 seed St. Bonaventure (24-6).
The Bonnies will play No. 3 seed Davidson in a semifinal Saturday.
The Bonnies hit 16 of their first 20 second-half shots to take a 17-point lead on Mobley's final 3 with 6:25 to play, but Khwan Fore scored eight points during a 19-4 spurt that pulled seventh-seeded Richmond (12-19) within two as he converted a three-point play with 1:21 remaining. The Spiders went 0 for 4 from the field from there, while St. Bonaventure made 5 of 8 free throws to seal it.
Fore led Richmond with 25 points and Jacob Gilyard added 18.
Big East: After spending a season overcoming injuries, disappointments and doubters, Providence made another statement with one of the greatest comebacks in Big East tournament history.
Alpha Diallo hit a go-ahead jumper with 2:22 left in overtime, and fifth-seeded Providence rallied from a 17-point second-half deficit and stunned top-seeded and No. 3 Xavier 75-72 in a Big East semifinal Friday night at Madison Square Garden.
Not bad for a team that came to New York considered a bubble team for the NCAA tournament. Two overtime wins in two days put that to bed before Saturday night's late final against second-seeded Villanova.
"We never thought about the bubble. We just played with confidence," senior forward Rodney Bullock, a Kecoughtan High graduate, said after Providence (21-12) beat Xavier (28-5) for the second time in three meetings.
CAA semifinals: Senior Kelsi Lidge scored nine points in the fourth quarter and overtime to lift top-seeded Drexel into the Colonial Athletic Association championship game with a 58-53 home win over fifth-seeded Delaware in Philadelphia.
Lidge finished with 11 points and was one of four Dragons in double digits. Bailey Greenberg had 13 points, while Sara Woods had 10 points, 11 rebounds and five steals. Aubree Brown posted 11 points and five steals.
Drexel (26-6) will play at 1 p.m. Saturday against No. 3 Elon, which routed No. 2 James Madison 76-53 in the second semifinal. The Dragons are seeking their second CAA title; they also won it in 2009.
Elon shot 52.7 percent (29 of 55). Senior Meme Garner went 5 for 6 from 3-point range and finished with 15 points, while Lexi Mercer had 12 points, including three 3-pointers. Senior Malaya Johnson posted 14 points on 7-of-11 shooting.
JMU (21-10), like Delaware (19-11), probably will be headed to the Women's National Invitation Tournament. The Dukes were held to 30.4 percent shooting.
Kelly Koshuta had 19 points, while Kamiah Smalls added 13 points and extended her double-digit scoring streak to 15 games.
Big South: No. 1 Liberty, the tournament host, advanced to the semifinals for the 21st time in 22 years by dusting No. 8 Charleston Southern 80-53 in Lynchburg.
Junior KK Barbour paced the Flames in points (18), rebounds (nine), assists (three) and steals (three). Keyen Green (12 points, six rebounds) and Ola Makurat (12 points, five rebounds) helped Liberty establish a season-high rebounding margin of 27 (43-16).
Liberty (22-9), on a six-game winning streak, will face No. 4 High Point at 2 p.m. Saturday.
High Point won in dramatic fashion as Camryn Brown hit a 30-foot 3-pointer at the buzzer for a 62-60 victory over No. 5 Presbyterian.
The Panthers (17-13) led 53-45 with 8:41 to play, but the Blue Hose (12-18) fought back with a 12-0 run.
Radford, the No. 2 seed, rallied past No. 7 Gardner-Webb 53-51 to reach the semis.
Division II first round: Bowie State upended host Virginia Union, an eight-team NCAA regional top seed, 63-56 on the Panthers' home court at Barco-Stevens Hall.
Bowie State earned a semifinal berth Saturday against Edinboro, which beat Virginia State 80-55.
Edinboro's Ciara Rosten was dominant in the paint. The Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference West's Athlete of the Year and Defensive Athlete of the Year posted her 20th double-double and flirted with a quadruple-double. The 6-foot-2 senior contributed 13 points, 17 rebounds, seven assists and seven blocks. Allen added nine points and nine rebounds.
Mia Fitts led Virginia State with 14 points, with Alexis Smith adding 13. Chrisanna Green pulled down a team-high 12 rebounds.
In the other half of the bracket, Indiana (Pa.) beat California (Pa.) 90-65, and No. 2 seed Glenville State raced past West Chester 118-87.

Acts as a ping to check if we are in command mode. If we are in command mode, we should receive the 'OK' response.
Displays basic information about the Bluefruit module.
Version 0.4.7+ of the firmware adds the chip revision after the chip name if it can be detected (ex. 'nRF51822 QFAAG00').
Version 0.5.0+ of the firmware adds a new 7th record containing the softdevice, softdevice version and bootloader version (ex. 'S110 7.1.0, 0.0').
Dynamically switches between DATA and COMMAND mode without changing the physical CMD/UART select switch.
When you are in COMMAND mode, entering '+++\n' or '+++\r\n' will cause the module to switch to DATA mode, and anything typed into the console will go direct to the BLUE UART service.
To switch from DATA mode back to COMMAND mode, simply enter '+++\n' or '+++\r\n' again (be sure to include the new line character!), and a new 'OK' response will be displayed letting you know that you are back in COMMAND mode (see the two 'OK' entries in the sample code below).
Note that +++ can also be used on the mobile device to send and receive AT command on iOS or Android, though this should always be used with care.
