"My mother said to always remember to live life without making others suffer, because helping others and making people happy will result in good karma and happiness in the future."
"Hello, my name is Wirabhuwana, I was born in Celuk Sukawati, a town rich in tradition and arts. I'm the second child of three siblings.
"In the third grade, I was jealous of my friends who had new clothes and money they earned from a jewelry workshop. Although my father bought me clothes and gave me money, I wanted to be self-sufficient like them, too. I wasn't allowed to work because I was a kid and my father would buy anything I needed. From there I became interested in learning about silver jewelry and sometimes worked like the other children surreptitiously.
"After a few years, my mother became interested in the jewelry craft, saying it seemed to have good potential. At first she made rings, and then created many other jewelry designs. In 1990, my father retired and joined this effort. We built our workshop at home and received many orders.
"After studying accounting in Udaya University in Denpasar, I worked as an accountant and worked as a civil servant. Now, I manage this silver jewelry venture as well.
"I married a beautiful woman from Tabanan who gave me a daughter and son. My wife is a doctor at a hospital in Denpasar, but she helps me in this endeavor when she has time. My children make me feel happy, grateful and proud. We'd been wanting for a child for years after getting married and God finally heard our prayers.
"The people in Celuk know me as a shy, quiet but patient man. I like computers, the Internet and travelling. My mother said to always remember to live life without making others suffer, because helping others and making people happy will result in good karma and happiness in the future. I am proud to help my workers finish their schooling until they graduate from high school. They deserve to get a good education.
"I manage this family workshop, which employs about 15 people, including silversmiths. We use traditional tools like scissors, stoves, hammers and casts. We use sterling silver, gold and gemstones.
"We use Balinese designs, like bun (vine motif) and jawan (silver bubble). We add our own embellishments to make our own unique creations. I hope that by joining Novica, customers from around the world will buy our designs."
This item was handmade in Indonesia. Here, UNICEF helped build earthquake resistant schools with clean water storage to withstand natural disasters.

Story of "I Won't Take Less Than Your Love" by Tanya Tucker, Paul Davis and Paul Overstreet
"I Won't Take Less Than Your Love" by Tanya Tucker, Paul Davis, and Paul Overstreet is a song correlated with each of the three main aspects of love. The story of the song started with the return of Tanya Tucker to country music prominence. With her head finally straight, the female country artist displayed an incredible amount of consistency. Her second release for Capitol Records marked her first chart-topper after a leave in the country music for more than ten years. After four more top ten hits, she returned to the No. 1 spot with what proved to be a very special record. It also a special event for songwriter Paul Overstreet. With the frequent collaboration with his partner Don Schlitz, they conceived the idea for "I Won't Take Less Than Your Love." Schlitz offered to let Overstreet write it alone. However, Overstreet insisted they work on it together.
The original idea was to try to get loans out of George Jones and Don Williams from their respective labels to cut "I Won't Take Less Than Your Love" with Tanya. Yet, she was drawn to the idea of performing the song with a new voice. Tucker selected her good friend Paul Davis, who had charted fifteen pop hits between 1970 and 1982. For the third member of the trio, Tanya went with one of the co-writers of the song, Paul Overstreet.
"I Won't Take Less Than Your Love" was a unique song which summarized the general progression of several of life's key elements. The three participants sang a different verse that correlated with each of the three main aspects of love. Paul Davis led off with his superb delivery of the song's first verse about a husband's love for his wife, although Davis never married. Tucker handled the second verse about the mother and her son. The third and final verse, and by far the most powerful, was a personal testimony that belonged entirely to Overstreet. It concerned a man's relationship with his Lord and was especially meaningful to Paul because it was his embracing of religion that was a key element in helping him break free from the grip of alcoholism, achieve sobriety and turn his life around. Each of the verses fit so well and everything fell into place. It made the song a distinct candidate for a No. 1 landing. It reached that position on Billboard's Country Singles Chart February 27, 1988, marking Tanya Tucker's eighth of ten career chart-toppers.

There are few things that can match the exhilaration of riding a motorcycle. The whirl and whip of the wind have come to embody a true sense of freedom. Still, it's not that much fun when the wind turns bitterly cold and rain, snow, ice and bad weather turn roads into hazards. Many motorcycle owners park their ride in the garage until temperatures rise again, but you may want or need that space for something else.
With motorcycle storage at an iStorage facility, you don't have to sacrifice valuable garage space or leave your bike in the driveway with a cover over it all winter. Free up space at home, and eliminate worries about the safety and protection of your motorcycle while you wait for the spring thaw.
Gasoline - Protect your fuel tank from corrosion by draining the engine then refilling it with a fuel stabilizer.
Other fluids - Put fresh antifreeze, brake fluid, and oil in your motorcycle. While you're at it, lubricating the throttle, kickstand, shifter, and clutch cables can prevent moisture accumulation and rust over the winter.
Tires - When you place your ride in one of our storage units for motorcycles, lift it off the ground with blocks if possible to prevent flat spots. If that isn't possible, the next best way to prevent flat spots is to place your ride on its center stand and rotate the front tire regularly.
Wax - Waxing the metal on your ride will protect it from moisture accumulation that can lead to rust. Spraying exhaust pipes with a lubricant adds another layer of protection.
Cover - Even if you're storing your motorcycle in one of iStorage's indoor motorcycle storage units, a cover will provide extra protection from dust, dirt, and other debris.
With motorcycle storage locations across the country, iStorage is sure to have one near you. Stop by or call and ask our storage experts about our move in promotion!

mind, as being in their nature more open to public notoriety, than those of an opposite quality. Atrocious deviations from moral rectitude rarely pass undiscovered; whereas many of the noblest and most laudable instances of human merit, are frequently known only to the parties immediately concerned, and not seldom lie concealed in the breast of the worthy agent. Vice obtrudes itself upon the public eye; but virtue must be sought for in less conspicuous scenes. The secretum iter and the fallentis semita vitæ, are the paths in which her votaries are most frequently to be found. No wonder therefore, if in computing their comparative number, very erroneous calculations are apt to be made.
When all reflections of this kind, together with others which might be mentioned of the same tendency, are duly considered, and their full force admitted; it will not perhaps, be thought an unwarrantable inference, that there is an over-balance of good in the moral as well as in the natural world.
ESSAY 67.
MISCELLANEOUS WRITINGS.
(Lord Shaftesbury.)
THE celebrated wits of the Miscellanean race, the Essay writers, casual discoverers, reflectioncoiners, meditation-founders, and others of the irregular kind of writers, may plead it as their peculiar advantage that they follow the variety of nature, and in such a climate as ours their plea, no doubt, may be very just. We islanders famed for other mutabilities are particularly noted for the variableness and inconstancy of our weather. And if our taste in letters be found answerable to this temperature of our climate, certainly a writer must, in our account, be more valuable in his kind, as he can agreeably surprize his reader, by sudden changes and transports from one to another.
Were it not for the known prevalency of this relish, and the apparent deference paid to these
geniuses who are said to elevate and surprise, the editor of these Miscellanies might, in all probability, be afraid to entertain his readers with this multifarious, complex and desultory kind of reading. It is certain that if we consider the beginning and process of our present work, we shall find sufficient variation in it. From a professed levity we lapsed into a sort of
to our manner of setting out.
gravity unsuitable We have steered
an adventurous course; and seem scarcely come out of a strong and rough sea. It is time indeed we should enjoy a calm, and instead of expanding our sails before the swelling gusts, it befits us to retire under the lee-shore, and ply the oars in smooth water.
It is the philosopher, the orator, or the poet whom we compare to some first rate vessel, which launches out into the wide sea, and with a proud motion insults the encountering surges. We Essay writers are of the small craft or galley kind. We move chiefly by starts and bounds; as our motion is by frequent intervals renewed. We have no great adventure in view; nor can tell certainly whither we are bound. We undertake no mighty voyage of star or compass; but row from creek to creek, keep up a coasting trade, and are fitted only for fine weather and the summer season.
With the same view we miscellaneous authors, apprehending the natural lassitude and satiety of our indolent readers, have prudently betaken ourselves to the way of Essays; that as they proceed by frequent intervals of repose, contrived on purpose for them, they may from time to time be advertised of what is yet to come, and be tempted thus to renew their application.
ALCANDER AND SEPTIMIUS.
(Goldsmith.)
ATHENS, even long after the decline of the Roman empire, still continued the seat of learning, politeness and wisdom. The emperors and generals who in these periods of approaching ignorance still felt a passion for science, from time to time added to its buildings, or increased its professorships. Theodoric the Ostrogoth, was of the number; he repaired those schools
which barbarity was suffering to fall into decay, and continued those pensions to men of learning, which avaricious governors had monopolised to themselves.
In this city and about this period, Alcander and Septimius were fellow students together. The one the most subtle reasoner of all the Lycæum; the other the most eloquent speaker in the Academic grove. Mutual admiration soon begot an acquaintance, and a similitude of disposition made them perfect friends. Their fortunes were nearly equal, their studies the same, and they were natives of the two most celebrated cities in the world; for Alcander was of Athens, Septimius came from Rome.
In this mutual harmony they lived for some time together, when Alcander, after passing the first part of his youth in the indolence of philosophy, thought at length of entering into the busy world, and as a previous step, placed his affections on Hypatia, a lady of exquisite beauty. Hypatia shewed no dislike to his addresses. The day of their intended nuptials was fixed, the previous ceremonies were performed, and nothing now remained but her being conducted in triumph to the apartment of the intended bridegroom.

If you have placed an order for more than 1 quantity of an item, the entire quantity must be in stock before we are able to dispatch the order to you. If we do not have the required amount of an item in stock, we'll order it from our suppliers and will dispatch your order as soon as replenishments have arrived in the warehouse; this can take around 7-10 days.
How can I tell if something is available in a store?
If I pre-order something when will I receive it?
We aim to dispatch the vast majority of new release products so that our customers receive them on the advertised date of release. However, there can be occasions beyond our control where this is not always possible. If there's likely to be any delay we'll always try to let you know.
Please ensure that pre-orders are placed far enough in advance of the release date, to allow our warehouse team the time to process them.
Are sale and promotional items limited?
On some occasions goods can be limited to a small number of copies, so we will limit the number of copies per customer (eg. steelbooks, numbered vinyl, etc).

Please ensure that the expiry date on your payment card is after the anticipated dispatch date of your order, as payment is taken upon picking your order. If the card has expired, payment will fail, and the order will need to be cancelled. If you need to update card details, please contact us if you require any assistance.
Please note that pre-orders may be charged well in advance of the release date, in order to ensure all orders are delivered in a timely fashion.

Our main role is to support the Headteacher and the staff – the phrase often used to describe this role is 'a critical friend'. We help them to set and reach targets and to strive for excellence across the whole spectrum of school life. The two key documents used for this are the School Development Plan (SDP) and the Self Evaluation Form (SEF). The SDP sets out a yearly strategic plan for the school, with targets that everyone works towards and the SEF sets out how well the school is doing and where we aim to make improvements.


Bausch called the NSL title icing on the cake.
However, on Thursday with second place Kerman visiting Yosemite, thoughts of capturing a league title turned into reality with a 5-4 win over perennial tennis powerhouse sealing at least a share of the NSL title with two matches remaining.
Now the badgers will focus on the league tournament which takes place Wednesday, April 29. Eames said he anticipates a number one seed for the Badgers when the Central Section rankings are released April 27.
"Our short term goal was to win the league championship, which we have done. Our long term goal was to win a CIF team championship. If we are ranked number one we have a good chance and meeting that goal. All the matches will have to come through Oakhurst if we get the number one seed which I hope we'll get," said Head Coach Aaron Eames.
In the meantime the Badgers will remain focused on making history as they try to complete their undefeated season when they travel to Washington Union today to take on the Panthers.
When asked how he felt about capturing the Badger's first league title in more than 20 years Lassos said he was proud of his teammates and wouldn't have wanted to go out any other way.
Coached by Aaron Eames and Stan Lawrence the team relied on a team mentality in order to win and Lassos and Bausch said they owe much of their success to their coaches.
."We played to everyone's strengths. We have eight individual players and coach Eames and Lawrence allow us to play our styles," Lassos said.
Eames, who coached several of the players in basketball earlier this year after the resigning of Coach Lopez on April 9, made quite the impression on his seniors who said they would miss their coach dearly as they move on to future endeavors.
Eames has a history of success coaching at YHS as he is one of the most coveted coached in YHS football history with an overall record of 110-77 taking the Badgers to two CIF D-III championships, and playing for the championship four years in a row. He is one of the most highly respected coaches in the Central Section.
"Coach Eames was our basketball coach and we've always liked him as a teacher and mentor. We really respect him as a coach. We respect him and in turn he respects us. It's a really fun environment," Bausch said.
Yosemite benefited from the addition of a transfer student, junior Steven Standefer, who transferred from Alaska earlier this year. Standefer was eventually given the number one ranking on the team and turned out to be a useful addition.
Eames credits team play and a variety of circumstances that came together to produce YHS's first league title in more than 20 years.
Lassos, who was one of two team captains was praised by his Eames as the team's key to success siting his unselfish play and his natural leadership ability.
Despite their talent on the court the team impressed in the classroom as well. According to Eames, Lassos (USC), Bausch (UC Santa Barbara), Sam Williams (UC San Diego), and Sam Devito (Cal Poly San Luis) will all be attending four year universities next fall.
"It's been great to win and win the league championship but its even more rewarding to see how well they have done academically," Eames said.
Eames said he is proud of his teams success on the court but said is is even more proud about his athletes commitment to academics. Eames hopes the team will capture the coveted Section Academic Award which is awarded to the team with the highest total GPA.
"We have great kids and the fact they are all headed to major university says a lot. If your kids wants to go on and go to a major university we are we are sending more student-athletes to major universities than anyone else in the area," Eames said.
The team finishes off the regular season today against Washington Union and will play next in the NSL Individual Championship Tournament Wednesday, April 29 in Kerman.

A new year means new resolutions and a new kitchen. 2018 is coming in full force bringing many new ideas to enhance your kitchen and with our help we can make that come true for you. From countertops to plants, a whole new redesigned kitchen that will make your kitchen the new hot topic everybody will be talking about.
You may be familiar with good old-fashioned granite countertops, believe it or not, according to Southern Living, granite is becoming less popular and it is being replaced with marble or quartz. While marble is more or less around the same price range as granite, quartz will be priced a tad bit more than granite and marble. According to Improvenet, the cost for marble countertops ranges from $40 – $100/sf while the cost for granite countertops ranges from $34 – $75/sf. Thus, you can easily upgrade your countertops just by spending a little bit more. Quartz is a bit pricier with a cost of $60 – $115/sf.
It is very common to hear people talk about white kitchen counters and how they make the kitchen look and feel more spacious, yet people are feeling as though these all- white kitchens feel cold. This new year people are leaning more towards warmer colors instead of whites. These browns will create a warmer atmosphere for your kitchen. According to Zillow, metals and matte will surge at the start of this new year. For medium brown wood cabinets, a metal or matte handle or knob is the perfect combination to compliment those cabinets. These warmer colors can be combined with a dark or light countertop.
Many people don't realize the impact plants play in the decoration of their homes. Not only do they bring color to a room, but they purify the air and even improve health. In the past year, cacti and succulents became very popular due to them not needing to be watered. Now, big leafy plants are in. These plants add color to any room, not just the kitchen. The only downside to this is they must be watered regularly, not just whenever one remembers to. They also need a certain amount of sunlight, there are plenty of options for kitchen plants that will enhance the look of your kitchen for a relatively cheap price.
Now, if all of this sounds overwhelming, don't stress. There is plenty of changes you can make in order to improve the look of your kitchen without having to tear it down. You can add a little bit of color by simply painting the walls or the cabinets a different color. Also, changing the backsplash to something lighter and subtler will change the look of your kitchen tremendously. Even by simply decluttering your kitchen, it will make it aesthetically pleasing and make it more spacious.
A few simple changes can go a long way to create a space in which you will feel like home. Everything is possible with a little bit of imagination and the right people to guide you in the right direction of what you want to achieve for your home.

There is nothing normal about being a Christian.
The truth is Christianity is utterly useless if all it becomes for us is some club or label.
Christianity afflicts the comfortable and comforts the afflicted. There is nothing normal about being a Christian.
For me, being a Christian is a moment by moment experience. As much as I can, I try to think about my faith each moment. I ask myself often, 'What is the Godly action to do right now?' I work hard to overcome my human impulse: my pride, my sin. I recall often that I am not alone, for God journeys with me.
I want to be all that God has created me to become. Focused as much as I am able on His will, expressing as much as I can His love with those I encounter.
I want to recognize constantly, how much He blesses me and how I might bless others.
So how might I bless you today?
Please pray for my daughter, granddaughter and all who are in harms way with Hurricane Florence. My daughter is in a place of rebellion against the Lord. I'm praying that her heart might be softened as she faces adversity. Thank you.
Random Question…the picture posted of the bronze grieving mother, do you know what that is titled or where it is located? This picture ended up on a facebook post that i was commenting on (post for grieving parents) and we are all trying to figure out where it is located?
Unfortunately I don't know. Sorry!
God bless you for all you do for others!
I've been asking for prayer in the past few days regarding my back which is chronic but now I am being sent to a cardiologist next week. I would appreciate prayers over physical health in general…God is in control & He is faithful….Thank-you Mark! God Bless you & your family!
Please pray for my cousin Jill.
She has had a very rough go of it over the last several years from losing her job of 30+ years due to company going under from the crash in 2008 to being injured twice on the next job she got and eventually being let go from there to her home going into foreclosure and losing her best friend, her mother to cancer. It has been a continual storm for her that just seems to continue.
Friends have been trying to do all they can to help but only God can bring to her what she truly needs.
We are very concerned and reach out to all who can pray for her.
Need prayer for my back. It has been excruciating this week – I can barely walk. Thank-you Mark for your prayers! Praying for you & your family!
Thank you for your vlog- it inspires, uplifts, and challenges me.
Please pray that I can learn to live by faith and not by sight. My husband lost his job of 25 yrs and he is now doing odd jobs to make ends meet. Please pray for his health and strength, and that we both can get health insurance. I have several health problems and deal with chronic pain everyday. My prayers are with you and Christi every day. Take care and thank you again.

Bigfoot: Sasquatch in Canada
November 20, 2013 By Rob Neilly
Stories about Sasquatch in Canada, sometimes called Bigfoot (mostly an American term) or Yeti, in terms of the Himalayan creature, just won't go away. They appear in publications both scientific and starry-eyed. For example, "one of the Web's leading sources for celebrity gossip, news and information", The Hollywood Gossip, posted two videos in the summer of 2013 that "allegedly capture the hairy creature in action." I've had a look at both, and offer the following link to one of them for the curious: www.thehollywoodgossip.com/videos/sasquatch-sighting-in-canada/. One thing is clear; stories about an ape-like living thing, in Canada and elsewhere, continue.
According to Merriam-Webster, the first use of the term Sasquatch was in 1929. To that term they offer the following definition:
"a hairy creature like a human being reported to exist in the northwestern United States and western Canada and said to be a primate between 6 and 15 feet (1.8 and 4.6 meters) tall —called also bigfoot"
The term "Bigfoot" came along approximately 30 years after that.
The creature, real or imagined or mistaken (as many hold), is thought to roam the Pacific Northwest. It's elusive, and many alleged videos of Bigfoot are grainy or out of focus. Some are simply unbelievable. In the early 1920s, author J.W. Burns compiled a series on local legends for a Canadian newspaper and it was he who coined the term "Sasquatch". Eventually, legends and stories grew and spread into the United States. In 1951, mountaineer Eric Earle Shipton and Dr. Michael Ward, in exploring the Barun gorge, photographed what they claimed to be footprints of the Himalayan Yeti. The photographs showed an ice axe to indicate proportion and size. They caused quite a sensation. In 1958, more footprints were found; this time by a bulldozer operator in California. Those prints were cast in plaster, and the story was picked up by the Humboldt Times, and later, by the Associated Press. One of the most convincing—or outrageous—video clips to emerge is called the Patterson-Gimlin film. It was shot in Bluff Creek, California in 1967 by Roger Patterson and Robert Gimlin. (The link that appears earlier in this article is to two videos shot in Canada in 2013.) Professor Bryan Sykes, an Oxford University geneticist, compared some hair samples and found a genetic match between the Yeti, and "a large bear that lived more than 40,000 years ago." DNA tests were performed to determine the correlations.
As you can see, whether called Sasquatch, Bigfoot, or Yeti, similar stories and some 'evidence' exists that a strange and mysterious creature does roam the land. As this article is about Canadian connections, the rest of it will deal with Sasquatch sightings and legends in Canada.
Let's start with Banff National Park in Alberta. It's no stranger to sightings of Sasquatch. One recent example was some video shot in 2010 from a boat cruising Lake Minnewanka. It shows what looks like a creature creeping along the shoreline. There have been so many sightings in Banff that Parks Canada released a fake video of a "Sasquatch" on April Fool's day in 2013! Staying in Alberta for the moment, there was a sighting in the summer of 2013 in the Bow Valley area. That sighting, reported by a UFO-oriented website, tries to make the connection between Bigfoot and aliens. Believe it, or not. There have been alleged sightings in an area behind China Nose Mountain, in Houston, British Columbia. For interested readers, check out Brian Vike's website, The Vike Factor. Hikers, on a trail in Mission, B.C., captured a few seconds of video reportedly Bigfoot. It's an interesting watch, and as you'll see if you click through, this report came in from Australia.
The Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization has amassed and organized thousands of sightings, both from the U.S. and Canada. Based on and sifting through that database, PhD candidate Josh Stevens catalogued over 3,000 sightings between 1921 and 2013. Of interest is the following quote from Mr. Stevens, near the end of his article, where he states though he isn't convinced: "But if respectable folks like Survivorman Les Stroud and primatologist Jane Goodall believe there's something more to the myth, I think it's at least worth putting on the map." Most of the data he compiled and mapped show sightings are heaviest in sparsely populated areas in the Pacific Northwest. This may interpreted in two different ways. The sceptic may claim that figures, because the lack of people and remoteness of the area dismiss the validity of the reports. It could also be interpreted in a positive way, in that the creature continues to be as elusive as ever (i.e., not wanting to be seen).
For readers who want to continue to explore this subject, links and articles, pictures and videos exist in abundance. Perhaps you'll want to take a look at the evidence and accounts amassed by M.K. Davis, a well-known Bigfoot researcher. If so, you can find him here. By the way, there have been sightings in central and eastern Canada. There's a stunning photograph taken by Melissa Hovey, from Temagami, Ontario. It was later published and copyrighted by the American Bigfoot Society. It's the photo that adorns the top of this article.

Microtest wins contract to supply GP IT systems across NHSScotland - Software Cornwall
Microtest has won a new framework contract to supply GP IT systems as a Managed Service to GP practices across NHSScotland.
The contract award was made on 1st February 2019, following a robust and rigorous procurement process, managed by NHS National Services Scotland (NSS) and overseen by the national GP IT Re-Provisioning Project Board.
Microtest is one of three national suppliers to have been awarded the contract. They will now develop their systems to meet the specific requirements of Scottish GPs in order to become accredited systems that are approved for use in Scotland.
Colin Sinclair, Chief Executive, NHS National Services Scotland (NSS) said:
"The new GP IT Managed Services Framework will offer significant benefits related to the reform of primary care across NHSScotland and the services delivered to patients. It will provide modern, secure GP IT systems which will support the evolving models of care in Scotland.
"The successful suppliers demonstrated a strong commitment and ability to meet core GP IT clinical / technical requirements and the wider Primary Care agenda, as well as further integration with NHSScotland's wider digital infrastructure and strategic requirements."
The framework Contract will be valid for five years and all contracts called off from the framework during that time will then be valid for seven years, with options to extend up to a maximum of 10 years.
Chris Netherton, Managing Director of Microtest, said: "We are delighted to have been awarded this framework contract. We look forward to helping GP surgeries in Scotland use the latest IT technology to streamline systems and deliver outstanding patient care. Our clinical system Open Evolution is currently undergoing a transformation which we believe will make it the most future-proof clinical system available in the UK."
Microtest employs 100 people at its base in Bodmin, Cornwall and its software development centre at Plymouth Science Park. The company currently supplies clinical IT systems to GP practices in England and the Channel Islands.
This award by NHSScotland follows Microtest's recent award of a contract to supply GP surgeries across NHS Wales. 139 practices in Wales will be migrating to Microtest's Open Evolution over the course of 2019.
Chris Netherton adds: "NHSScotland has an inspirational forward-looking vision for a healthcare system which delivers seamless patient care across primary, community and social care, enabled by the very latest technology. We share their exciting vison for the future of healthcare and are pleased to have the opportunity to work with NHSScotland to make it a reality."

Colorado Governor Brands PETA As "Losers," "Frauds"
Colorado Gov. Bill Owens castigated People for Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) last week after the fringe group criticized efforts to save cattle stranded by the recent holiday blizzards. Owens leveled words like "a bunch of losers" and "frauds" and advised radio listeners to KRFX to refrain from contributing to the activist group.
"The entire situation could have been avoided for cattle and other farm animals if factory farms weren't doing these things and keeping them outdoors all the time," a PETA spokesman said in a KRFX radio interview. "You're going to save them and then and in six months they're going to be killed and end up on someone's plate, so I don't know that it's really the most noble cause."
Later, Owens told the same radio crew, "they're frauds. I just signed an executive order to have the Colorado National Guard, at some risk to those men and women, try to save these cattle and it's amazing that PETA doesn't want us to feed freezing cattle.
"It's a strange group of people," Owens told listeners. "Don't send money to PETA."

How Will Game of Thrones End? 5 Theories That Have Us Fearing the Finale
Game of Thrones Season 8 Finale Theories
May 18, 2019 by Andrea Johnson First Published: May 14, 2019
Warning: Major spoilers for Game of Thrones follow!
One of the best quotes to sum up any predictions we may have about how Game of Thrones will end, actually comes from one of the show's worst characters, Ramsay Bolton. While torturing Theon in the third season's sixth episode called "The Climb," Ramsay taunts his victim with some vicious words of wisdom: "If you think this has a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention." And sadly, he's right. As we count down the hours until the final episode, theories have hit an all-time high, but none of them speak to the happy endings that are a mainstay for fairy tales about kings and queens. So, it's with a heavy heart that we unpack five foreboding theories that may predict an end to the series we've loved for nearly a decade.
You have theories . . . so do we!

This site represents every individual as he goes through the joyrides and bumps of his daily undertakings. It represents the soul that has yearned to be freed from its internal prison. It represents every heart that has long been a captive of its desires, wishes, and dreams. It represents me. It represents you.
For some time, you may have struggled a lot. It may be because of your family, friends, work, or matters of the heart. For some time, you may have thought of giving up the life you once lived in exchange for a life you wanted to live. But has it ever crossed your mind why it never worked that way?
Problems are but a part of our existence as humans. It is a problem though if you see it that way. Have you ever considered it as a blessing rather? Yes, every single one of it. Nothing in this world really "just happens". Everything has its purpose and that's why, if you have observed, the events in our lives are somehow intertwined to each other, which proves that our existence is not based on coincidences but rather a life with a purpose.
There is a reason behind your struggles. There is a reason behind your hurts. There is a reason behind your tears. There is a reason behind your pain. There is a reason behind every "was", "is", and "will be" in your life, that's why no matter how hard these challenges presses you down, always try even harder to rise back up.
Stop stepping over yourself just because you're going through a lot of hurdles these days. While others carry a lighter burden, there will always be somebody else whose dilemmas are heavier than yours and those people might have wished to wear your shoes rather than theirs.
There is a reason why you're riding the kind of life you have right now. There is a reason why you met the people who loved, hurt, left, appreciated, dumped, accepted, hated, valued, and rejected you. But the common denominator is because there is something you needed to know, learn, and see.
Our tomorrows are always full of blessings and surprises but most of the time, rather than feeling and embracing the excitement it brings, we often opt for our hearts and minds to clasp on fears of the uncertainties it carries along. Our fears often caught us off guard because the parapets we build around might be a little bit enough to hold our prides in place but not our faith. What is your parapet made of?
The thing is we are so blessed to have these challenges, problems, dilemmas, whatever you call them, around. These are the fires that will test and mold us to become what we were really meant to be – better. It presses us to learn things which were never taught at school. It taught us to live, to laugh, to love, even if living seemed not so easy, laughing seemed to be forced and loving seemed to bring some hurts along. It is such a blessing because through these tests, we were once again emptied and therefore, God can fill us once more. It is such a blessing that once again we have witnessed our weaknesses and saw how mighty God is as He works continuously in our lives. It is such a blessing that once again, we were reminded of God's great love for us.
Let's face it. Sometimes we only turn our faces up the heavens when we were already lying on our backs. Most of the time, the world fascinates us so much that we tend to forget what our mission is. The enjoyment it brings is addictive but no matter how sweet its taste is, it can never satisfy the desires of the human heart and mind, for only God can fill our hungry souls.
Feel blessed when you encounter any forms of hitches and bumps in life for one thing is for sure – God is working on you. Problems are but a tap and knock from God to remind us to put our feet back on the right track by following His lead.
Do not be afraid to open your heart to Him. True enough that the enjoyment you once felt with the world will diminish but it will soon be replaced with the kind of happiness and joy that you've always longed for –untainted, overflowing, genuine, and real.

Q: Get list of values inside a multi-dimensional php array I need to change this array:
$array = [
        [0] => [
            'id' => '100'
        ],
        [1] => [
            'id' => '200'
        ],
        [2] => [
            'id' => '300'
        ]
    ];

Into this:
$array2 = [100, 200, 300];
A long time ago I found a built-in PHP function which could do this for me. But i can't for the life of me remember which one it was. Of course I could do it manually, but it would be easier and more readable if I could use a builtin PHP function

A: Use array_column like this: array_column($array, 'id');

A: 1st solution:
Use array_map() function with inline function:
$array2 = array_map(function($arrayElement){return $arrayElement['id'];}, $array);

2nd solution:
Use foreach loop:
function getValues($array, $index)
{
    $result = array();
    foreach($array as $element)
    {
        if(isset($element[$index])) //check if index exists
            $result[] = $element[$index];
    }

    return $result;
}

$array2 = getValues($array, 'id');

This function has two parameters: array from which you gets values and index, for example 'id'.
Result of two methods is the same:
Array
(
    [0] => 100
    [1] => 200
    [2] => 300
)

So I have been blogging for quite some time now and I get a lot of questions now and then related to my blog. So I decided to interact with you all and answer all your questions. Questions related to travel, fashion, beauty, my personal life or blogging in general. I posted about it on my social media and to my surprise I received a lot of questions. I went live on Facebook for the very first time and it was an amazing experience. I was having so much fun and it went on for nearly an hour. Almost 600 views and a lot of questions. I am so happy with the response and I am going to answer all your questions here.
Thank you so much for asking this question. I never really thought about it. But it sounds very interesting. I have to do a lot of research and once I feel like I am starting to understand the concept and the depth it has, I am surely going to write about it.
Well I never really thought deeply about it or made plans and neither did I expect anything in return. I started blogging because I liked the idea of it. I think it's a great way for anyone to express themselves. It is a great career option too but the reason I do it because I love it. It makes me happy. I started blogging at the point of time in my life when I needed a change and nothing could have been better than blogging. So I love it and it is an important part of my life now.
Okay I really don't have too many collaborations in my hands but I did a few. First of all let me tell you the various kinds of collaborations.
a. You write for someone else.
b. You let someone else write for your blog.
d. Collaborate with other bloggers of the same niche.
I think it's very important to post on a regular basis to build a loyal audience base.
You should have a clean template and you should have a separate page which is easily visible where you should mention you are interested in collaborations.
And it's better if you provide with a with a contact form on your sidebar.
Also be active on social media and build a good instagram feed and follow brands who usually collaborate with bloggers to get to know more about the types of collaboration they do and you can approach accordingly.
And lastly be a part of blogger communities.
My inspiration is Naty Michele. She's a wonderful person and she has a great fashion sense. I have been following her since 2011 I guess and I liked her so much I wanted to be like her. So she's the reason I wanted to start a blog in the very first place.
Okay Shalu you pretty much know everything about me and I'll still answer it for others.
I have definitely grown as a person. Travel always brings out a better version of me. I have met so many different people while traveling. Different culture different background but I felt someway we all are connected. And that is by our passion for travel. So in a way we are very same. But you definitely get to learn new things from them.
I can't recall any particular person I met while traveling who influenced my style but again if it's inspiration it definitely is Naty Michele.
Well I want to go to so many places but right now the places that literally call me are Maldives, Mauritius, Dubai and USA. I definitely want to go to one of the places very soon.
Okay I think dark purple in matte really looks great on dark skin. Also dark browns. Try to stay away from some nudes. They don't really flatter dark skin tone. Go for soft nudes though. Like soft pink or mauve. And a bright red looks good on everyone.
I think nudes are a great option for fair skin. Also red and bright pinks and oranges look great.
Depends. There's a quote I dress up like I am either going to a red carpet event or I am a homeless beggar. There's nothing in between. That perfectly suits me. When I put effort I make sure I give my 100% or else I won't put any effort at all.
The next few questions are by Subhasis Mukherjee.
10. What according to you is the best place you have traveled to?
Can't choose. I love everywhere I have been to, and also the places I haven't been to. Every place teaches you something and you learn a lot about yourself as well. But Australia has been very special to me. It made me strong and taught me what I am capable of. That was the most important trip of my life. But all the places I have been to, have taken a special place in my heart.
11. The most romantic place you have been to.
Since I am a Shah Rukh Khan fan, it definitely has to be those beautiful European countries. I love Venice. It's definitely my favourite. But there's Paris and Switzerland on the list as well.
12. What do you like about SRK?
The whole of him. I love every cell of that person from the bottom of my heart, mind and soul.
13. Did you face any kind of racism abroad?
Yes I did. When I was in London, it was a mean security guard at Madame Tussauds. And also once in Switzerland. My brother saw a cute puppy and went to cuddle it but the lady (who was not at all ladylike) shooed my brother away who didn't understand why someone would behave like that because he was only 8-9 year old back then. But this doesn't really matter because I have met so many amazing people that this seems very insignificant to me.
Okay, I am not a person who studies all the time. But when I study, even for a little while I concentrate completely on that. But yes, MBBS is hectic and there's a lot of pressure. And that's the reason I write my blog. As I always say my blog is an outlet for everything I love and strongly feel. My blog takes me away from all these pressure. It takes me to a different place. It's like, because of blogging I am able to balance my life. So there's no extra pressure. It in fact reduces the pressure. I love blogging and after doing it for a year I have realised I am meant for it. So both MBBS and my blog are important in my life. I need them together for a balance. MBBS brings out my practical side and Blogging, my creative and crazy side. And I believe you need both for a balanced life.
I really wish someday I can start a youtube channel. But it's a difficult job and requires much more hard work than writing a blog. I need to learn a lot of technical stuff as well. I hope I can start my Youtube channel soon.
Yes of course. It's my dream to travel the whole world solo. But I don't know if it's going to be soon. I need to graduate my college first because our college doesn't give us enough holidays and in fact takes them and puts exams (Like my whole christmas and new year was spent studying for and worrying about exams). But I know I will definitely find a way to fulfil my dreams.
I hope I answered all the relevant questions. If I missed any then I am really sorry but I tried my best and answered as much as I could. Hope you liked my answers. Thank you so much for the love and support. I was really overwhelmed by the number of questions I got.

Please contact us with any concerns you might have.


It's not very useful to have multiple levels of subtasks if they don't show up in the main screen. I'd like to see all levels (preferably with the ability to collapse any level like you currently do at the top level).
It's especially bad now because to see nested subtasks, you can't just click on the parent subtask because they will mark it completed (see separate issue I entered). Thanks.
Your suggestions have been passed to our Product team and will be considered during future development!
We will keep an eye out on the votes that the suggestion gets to help us prioritize.

Q: After I load a file with Hebrew text from raw folder it is not displayed correctly, how did I fix it? This is my code
public class Blogs extends Activity{

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.seriously);
        String line = "";
        StringBuilder finalString = new StringBuilder();
        InputStream iStream = getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.minzelostam);
        BufferedReader bReader = new BufferedReader (new InputStreamReader(iStream));

        try {
            while ((line = bReader.readLine())!=null){
                finalString.append(line);
            }
        } catch (IOException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        TextView tv = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.tvLongText);
        tv.setText(finalString);
    }
}

And this is the result on the screen

The problem is writing in Hebrew, I just don't know how to solve it.

A: I had a similar task to resolve a few years ago. I downloaded a hebrew font and added to the assets of the project. Then loaded that font file and set the returned typeface to the textview I was setting the hebrew text on. Try a similar approach. Here's a font that might help you

A: package com.dolev.jinjer;

public class Blogs extends Activity{
Typeface tf;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.seriously);
    tf = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "DroidSansHebrew.ttf");
    String line = "";
    StringBuilder finalString = new StringBuilder();
    InputStream iStream = getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.minzelostam);
    BufferedReader bReader = new BufferedReader (new InputStreamReader(iStream));

    try {
        while ((line = bReader.readLine())!=null){
            finalString.append(line);
        }
    } catch (IOException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    TextView tv = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.tvLongText);
    tv.setTypeface(tf);
    tv.setText(finalString);
}

}
still dosent work :(

Q: SQL: Using the AND statement with nested queries I am learning with an online tutorial series and right now we are looking into nested queries. Trying to play around and think of ways I could play with this concept I wanted to try to make combined nested queries, but I am not really sure how and google isn't providing me much luck. Once again it's hard to word things like this. I am using MS SQL
SELECT EmployeeID, FirstName, LastName
FROM SQLTutorial.dbo.EmployeeDemographics

WHERE EmployeeID
IN (SELECT EmployeeID
FROM SQLTutorial.dbo.EmployeeSalary
WHERE JobTitle = 'DBA')

/*
AND

WHERE EmployeeID
IN (SELECT EmployeeID
FROM SQLTutorial.dbo.WareHouseEmployeeDemographics
WHERE Age = 29)
*/

This is what I thought I could do. From the example I know that the uncommented part works. It gets the ID, First Name, and Last name from EDemo IF the ID is in BOTH EDemo AND ESalary AND their job title is DBA.
Well I wanted to limit those results further by only having the results be those who work in the Warehouse as well AND are 29.
I mean if I run the commented code without the uncommented it works like intended as well, but I am not sure why I cannot just combine the two. I am 90% sure it's b/c I can't use the AND statement like this and I have a sneaking feeling I have to nest the two together and make a nest in a nest.
And it will be like a taco inside taco within a Taco Bell that's inside a KFC that's within a mall that's inside your dream! Sorry I couldn't help myself.

A: Just remove second second "Where" and your query is good to execute. You just need one where clause within which you can have all your condition combined with and, or etc..
SELECT EmployeeID, FirstName, LastName
FROM SQLTutorial.dbo.EmployeeDemographics

WHERE EmployeeID
IN (SELECT EmployeeID
FROM SQLTutorial.dbo.EmployeeSalary
WHERE JobTitle = 'DBA')

AND EmployeeID
IN (SELECT EmployeeID
FROM SQLTutorial.dbo.WareHouseEmployeeDemographics
WHERE Age = 29)

If you want all the employees whose ID is in BOTH EDemo AND ESalary AND their job title is DBA but or who work in the Warehouse AND are 29.
 SELECT EmployeeID, FirstName, LastName
    FROM SQLTutorial.dbo.EmployeeDemographics

    WHERE EmployeeID
    IN (SELECT EmployeeID
    FROM SQLTutorial.dbo.EmployeeSalary
    WHERE JobTitle = 'DBA')

    or EmployeeID
    IN (SELECT EmployeeID
    FROM SQLTutorial.dbo.WareHouseEmployeeDemographics
    WHERE Age = 29)

A: As pointed out in the comments, the issue is having two WHEREs. Only the first WHERE is needed; after specifying WHERE, conditions can just be joined using AND, OR, that sort of thing. Uncommenting and removing the second WHERE should fix it. So, instead of "WHERE a=b AND WHERE c=d" just write "WHERE a=b AND c=d".


Why people prefer virtual world over physical world? Because it is more responsive to our touch and less trickier to understand than actual human emotions.The virtual world is so much more tender and considerate with its words – 'like' & 'friend' and yet empowering with its words like 'followers' & 'report/spam' right at a click.What we don't realize is this escape hatch is the easy way out but not the most gratifying way into breaking down our issues.We don't want to face the grim reality but live in the happy bubble we made for ourselves that can be popped by anyone,anytime.You don't wait for warnings in real world.Downfall just happens.And remember your life will roll exactly the same way in virtual world unless you take charge of your own problems.Internet is a tool we use to fulfill our demands.Not the other way around.
Thank you for sharing this important insight, my friend.
Whatever the contentious topic… gun control, abortion, religion, politics, whatever… such bumper sticker "activism" is typically just a convenient way to feel good about doing nothing… and, more often than not, merely preaching to the choir… more like the cyberspace choir of likers and sharers glorifying itself.
The rub is that the belief that one is doing SOMETHING when in reality one is doing NOTHING renders us even vulnerable than doing nothing at all.
Thank you for sharing your views! Loved the last bit! It is so easy to mistaken that doing something virtually is equivalent to doing something in reality.
If there's a disaster happening somewhere – our 1 like is NOT equivalent to 1 blessing or any kind of aid – our bit is not done unless we nurture our reality.

It is a pity that your fine and first model, on these pages, not is presented with better photos. Nonetheless, I think it has many fine details such as the radar tower and the SNOT-build helipad. Hurry up and lend a real camera and take a series of new photos, and when you upload then choose large images for the layout. Welcome to these pages!

Antiracist and Diversity Educational Resources
From its inception, IDPro has had inclusivity and equality as goals. The thought went that by providing free access to vendor-neutral educational resources, we would help remove some of the barriers that prevent people from joining our industry. While that is a nice thought, it is not sufficient. There is more we can, should, and will do.
There is more to being an identity professional than just knowing about the plumbing, the protocols, and the processes. We, as identity practitioners, are custodians of data about people and inherent in that is a duty of care.
The murders of people such as George Floyd, Rayshard Brooks, Ahmaud Arbery, and Breonna Taylor have catalyzed society to acknowledge systemic racism and injustice. Furthermore, implicit and explicit bias around race and racial identity directly manifest in the technologies that we design and build. With that duty of care on our minds and with this injustice around us and within our technologies, the IDPro Board knows there are practitioners who are asking "How can I help? Where can I start?"
In that spirit, IDPro has collected anti-racism, diversity, and inclusion materials to share with everyone, members and non-members alike. The resources below are by no means exhaustive. The journey of a practitioner must include an examination of their privileges, their biases, the systems wrongs around them, and ways they can be allies. We offer these materials as a starting point for that journey. To build identity systems that are inclusive we must have diverse teams building them and empower each individual member to stand up, speak up for anti-racism and diversity. We must be conscious of the terminology we use when we build these systems and acknowledge our mistakes such as the use of the term "whitelist" or "blacklist" and replace with "allow" and "deny" and be thoughtful and aware of the language we use while we design and engineer identity systems. Much of this is unconscious bias creeping in and we have to consciously watch for it, acknowledge it, and correct it immediately.

As a professional development organization, and a relatively young one at that, there is a large field of opportunity for both dialogue and collaboration on this subject, including in our work with partner organizations like Women in Identity (WID), and Women in Security & Privacy (WISP). Our Body of Knowledge can and should reflect this commitment, with future contributions on how to make some of these principles work in practice. We know we can do better, and we welcome conversations that meet that goal.

This page is a translated version of the page Wikimedia Argentina and the translation is 26% complete.
Wikimedia Argentina (Asociación Civil Wikimedia Argentina in Spanish language) is a private non-profit association, governed by the regulations of the Argentine Civil Code. It is an independent organization that serves as the local Wikimedia chapter in Argentina.
After about one year of preparation with informal meetings, the inaugural meeting of Wikimedia Argentina took place on September 1, 2007, with 28 founding members. During the chapter's founding, a constitution was drafted, the bylaws were approved and the first Board was elected. On December 11, 2007, Wikimedia Argentina was officially recognized as a Wikimedia chapter by the Board of the Wikimedia Foundation.
Wikimedia Argentina's goals are to actively contribute to the diffusion, improvement and progress of the knowledge and culture in the Argentine territory, especially thorough the promotion and support of the projects hosted by the Wikimedia Foundation. Wikimedia Argentina is also an affiliate organization of Creative Commons Argentina and part of the advisory committee of Conectar Igualdad.
Currently, Wikimedia Argentina has more than 70 members and has organized several activities for the promotion of Wikipedia and related projects, including Wikimania 2009 and the Ibero-American Wikimedia Summit 2011.

The Easter break is a few weeks behind us so the real studying has begun. However, one extra week wouldn't hurt since this week is the new praesidium's campaign week. A week filled with exciting activities around the theme of shtones.

Q: Standard Matrix code in java? I am new to Java, and I need a Matrix class. Is there a standard
library/package for this, or I will have to write it myself?
Thanks

A: You can have a look at JAMA.
JAMA is a basic linear algebra package for Java. It provides user-level classes for constructing and manipulating real, dense matrices.  It is meant to provide sufficient functionality for routine problems, packaged in a way that is natural and understandable to non-experts.  It is intended to serve as the standard matrix class for Java...

A: No, there is no "matrix class" built into the standard libraries.
Yes, there are many linear algebra libraries available.  For example:

*http://commons.apache.org/math/

A: I can recommend EJML
 The following functionality is provided:
•Basic Operators (addition, multiplication, ... )
•Matrix Manipulation (extract, insert, combine, ... )
•Linear Solvers (linear, least squares, incremental, ... )
•Decompositions (LU, QR, Cholesky, SVD, Eigenvalue, ...)
•Matrix Features (rank, symmetric, definitiveness, ... )
•Random Matrices (covariance, orthogonal, symmetric, ... )
•Different Internal Formats (row-major, block)
•Unit Testing
