If you're considering a move to Nexton, you probably have a lot of questions - about our builders, about our amenities, about our great schools, and perhaps about the people who actually call our buzzing community home. Who better to tell potential residents about life here than the folks who can speak first hand?
Meet the Pascazios. These folks were among the pioneering first to put roots down in our new homes community, so you could say they are Nexton "pros." In fact, we wouldn't be surprised if followers of our Facebook and Instagram pages find the little faces in the photo above familiar - the Pascazio boys are frequent subjects of photos at Nexton events, thanks to their contagious energy and endless charm (which they get from their parents, of course!). Below, a little about this sweet family and what brought them to Nexton.
What made you decide to make Nexton home for your family?
We liked the concept of the community. We also love going downtown, to the beach and all over the Lowcountry, so being in close distance to the interstate was important to our family.
What feature of your home makes you most happy?
We love the open floorplan by Pulte Homes. It's nice to be in separate spaces but feel like we are all in the same room.
Tell me about your favorite park in Nexton.
Definitely Tall Gee because it is in our backyard. The kids are out there playing around the circle and in the park as much as possible. It is like having a personal racetrack for their bikes and scooters!
What event has been most memorable so far?
The answer is different for all of us. The kids would probably say the Grand Opening of the pool. We enjoy all the events, especially when there is a food truck involved.
What event are you most looking forward to?
We host a neighborhood Super Bowl party every year at our house and look forward to spending time with everyone.
Date night at Accent on Wine in Hutchinson Square.
We love to travel. We take really long family road trips around the U.S. The kids have already been to 28 states. We are also very loud and love to sing and dance.
Thanks, Pascazios! We're so glad you chose Nexton.
We've broken ground on Nexton Square!


Jeunesse Kids distributors proudly showing off their work.
(above) The Jeunesse Kids team, Erin Rank, and Habitat LA Partner Families are all smiles on a rainy build day.
Sixty distributors from Jeunesse Kids (Jeunesse Global's nonprofit foundation), an international direct seller of skincare and nutritional products, braved the rain January 14 to build and paint houses large and small at our Globe Ave. construction site in Culver City.
The Build Day was the culmination of LEAD Jeunesse 2019 North America, an annual three-day expo which that also included several events at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood. At the Saturday night Fund-A Need auction, participants raised $124,186 to help build and repair homes for needy families in Southern California.
Despite intermittent downpours, volunteers worked alongside future homeowners, putting up ceiling panels, painting bedrooms, and installing fire blocking. They also assembled and painted a playhouse, which will be sold to raise additional funds for Habitat LA.
Giving back to the community has been a part of Jeunesse's story since its inception. The company makes annual financial contributions through its nonprofit, Jeunesse Kids, whose goal ("One Heart, One Hope, One Mission") is to build brighter futures for young people in underprivileged communities.

I self harm, almost every night about things that go on in school and at home. I have cuts all up my arms and legs. I am the only person who knows about this. It's mostly because of being bullied. I am a Goth and people make fun of me for it, I also get pushed into lockers and punched. I've gone to the school and my parents multiply times but nothing works. They don't listen to me. I just don't understand.
Thank you for you letter and thank you for trusting me enough to tell me about what's going on at the moment.
You've mentioned that there's lots of difficult things happening for you. It sounds like self-harm is your way of trying to cope with that at the moment. I hear from lots of young people who self-harm, but it's important to remember that it can be really risky. Until things feel more manageable for you, and you can find a safer way of coping, you need to make sure you keep yourself as safe as possible if you hurt yourself. For example, you should look after the cuts carefully to stop them getting infected. If you ever find you can't stop the bleeding you should call 999 and ask for medical help. Have a look at the NHS advice on first aid for cuts and injuries.
What the bullies are doing to you is wrong. You've said that they are making fun of you because you are a Goth, but that's not a reason to bully anyone. You have the right to be whoever you want to be, without fear of being attacked. It's really disappointing to hear that you've not been able to get the support you deserve when you talk to the school or your parents. I imagine that it's been very frustrating for you - you are doing the right thing in asking for help but people are not listening.
All schools now have anti-bullying policies. I wonder if you would consider asking the school for a copy of their anti-bullying policy. It should describe a series of stages that the school should follow when it's trying to stop bullying. You could ask them to tell you which stage they are at with the people who are bullying you. You haven't told me who it is you've been speaking to in school. If your teachers aren't listening, you could try talking to the head of year, or even the head teacher. You might find it helps to keep a written record of every thing the bullies say or do. If you write down what happened, when, where and who else saw it, then it should help the school understand how hard things are for you right now. Bullying.co.uk have got some great advice on how to get yourself heard when you are being bullied.
If you would like to talk to one of our counsellors about what is happening you will be very welcome. You might also consider posting a message on the messageboards, asking other young people for their advice and support.

As you may know, we've been helping farmers out with nuisance hogs lately. Early this week we continued this mission and had one of the best nights of hog hunting we've had to date. It has been amazing to see the damage these creatures are doing to crop fields in our local area.
Also, SCDNR should be commended because they worked quickly with farmers and us to gain depredation permits to help control the crop destruction by these hogs. We always try to abide by the laws and regulations and hunt ethically. So kudos to SCDNR for assisting with this problem and working efficiently.
Gavin and I arrived to the farm around 9pm and upon arrival there was nothing on the corn pile. I state this because recently hogs had been coming in as the sun went down, but that only seemed to be for the few weeks following the arrival of little ones (piglets). Now they are going back to their night routines.
We hadn't been in the field long when we started seeing deer. Thus far in our experiences at this farm the deer tend to stay away from areas hogs are in and they hadn't been eating the corn too much. However, on this night the deer went to the corn pile. They ate for a while and some left, but one deer remained longer than the others. As the deer was eating I saw hogs approaching in the woods from the left. I wondered what would happen in this scenario. I figured the hogs would startle the deer and scare it off. However, it was exactly the opposite. I couldn't believe it when the deer blew and the hogs ran off into the woods! Unfortunately, I did not catch this on video.
Time passed and the deer finally left the corn pile. Gavin and I were whispering to each other about how we couldn't believe that a deer just ruined our hog hunt. We were already planning for the next time if we had a deer come out we would flash lights at it or something to make it move. We were kicking ourselves out there in the field while the deer walked towards us. In this scenario, we had a perfect wind. It was hitting us in our faces so the deer/hogs couldn't smell us at all. Surprisingly the deer got closer and closer to us and at it's closest was about 20 yards away. I got some extremely close video of this deer. Eventually the deer passed us and we started the hog watch again.
We were sitting there watching some raccoons when I noticed more heat coming through the woods. I told Gavin to get ready. Sure enough the hogs came out and got on the pile. They weren't on the corn too long before something startled them and again we were frustrated. Though, this time they came back relatively quickly.
When a group of hogs are on the corn pile and very close together it's hard to discern what is what. That is, you could be shooting at a hog's head, rear quarters, vital area, non-vital area, etc. and not really know because everything blends together. This is why it's good to spread corn out in a long line or across a wide area. On this hunt the majority of the corn had already been eaten so there wasn't much left to spread the hogs out. So it all came down to time and patience. It was a waiting game.
Eventually the biggest hog in the group separated itself and I told Gavin to hold on because it was fixing to happen. I put the cross-hairs on the hog and started squeezing off very slowly in hopes of ensuring a smooth trigger pull. A few seconds later the big hog was on the ground and the remaining hogs had retreated into the woods. I hoped to get off more than one shot, but by the time I was able to get back on any hogs in the scope there wasn't a good shot to be had so I held off. This hunt was a true test of patience.
We made a trip to the processor to drop the hog off and then headed to another field. Here again nuisance hogs were devastating a local farmer's crop field. We sat and sat and sat. We knew the hogs were causing big problems, but yet nothing had shown for nearly 2 hours. Then we saw a bobcat stroll along the edge of the field. It was neat to see the bobcat's movements.
Gavin and I were both starting to yawn and the clock was getting close to 1am. We were somewhat frustrated that nothing had shown up when we knew they were somewhere very close by. Gavin said "Ok buddy, we're going to give it another 10 minutes and then we're leaving". He had resorted to reading random FaceBook posts to pass time and I was scanning in the monocular.
As I'd been scanning the field earlier in the evening I had seen heat signatures from electrical units, random lights, birds in trees, and just other objects that were giving off heat. I made mental notes of these so that I didn't get excited every time I saw them. On a side note, for some reason it's easy to get a little disoriented when looking through night vision. I don't mean like get lost, but rather it's harder to gauge distance and you can get a little turned around. I say this because as I scanned I saw some heat signatures near where I'd previously seen other signatures. It was late and we were tired and I thought to myself that I remember seeing heat signatures on this side of the field, but not really that many.
Then I saw one of them move.
It was one of the most interesting sights I've seen while hunting. I watched 12 hogs come across the top of a hill in a line. It was almost like a scene from a Braveheart movie and they were coming at a pretty good clip. I told Gavin to get in the gun. He put his phone and way and got in the gun. I said "Look to the right" and he spun the gun directly in front of us and I saw where he was looking and said "No you're other right… to the right! To the right!" I grew frustrated with him quickly because I was seeing what was happening and he couldn't find them. Finally, he turned to where the hogs were and I believe he said, "Oh my God!".
Gavin counted the hogs and said, "Man look there are 12 hogs in that pack!". The hogs were milling around and coming towards us, but they were also arching towards a side of the field that we couldn't shoot towards. I talked to Gavin and told him that if we were patient we could potentially have a very close encounter. We discussed it, but ultimately, we decided to go ahead and start shooting because we couldn't predict where the hogs were going to go and we didn't want to completely miss out on a chance to shoot them in the case that they continued heading the wrong direction. I told Gavin to go ahead and let her fly.
From watching the group, we could easily tell that the biggest hog was on the far left and he just happened to be the closest one to us. Gavin waited on the hog to move to just the right angle and then he buckled that rascal to his knees. As soon as he shot the remaining hogs took off to the left. The video will illustrate this better than I can here with words, but it was a sight to be seen. Gavin continued peppering the hogs as they ran. From watching the video, we believe he hit more than 2, but there was one hog that reversed course and started coming back towards the top of the hill. In the end, Gavin dropped it as well. It was an impressive shooting display from my point of view so props to Gavin "The Chesterfield County Hawg Whisperer" Jackson for getting it done.
By the end of the night we'd shot 3 hogs and had a ton of fun! We'd like to again give shout outs to SCDNR for working with us to get the depredation permit, Reel Determined Outdoors for handling all our artillery & gear needs, Anderson Rifles for making a great gun, and Pulsar for making top-notch thermal equipment that makes all this possible.
If you have hog problems, let us know and we can assist! Contact us on the site, Twitter, or Facebook.

A 2,000-pound great white shark is swimming off the coast of Florida
Posted 6:59 AM, October 28, 2019, by Tribune Media Wire, Updated at 05:35AM, November 1, 2019
A great white shark that weighs over 2,000 pounds and measures 15 feet, 5 inches long has been swimming along the US East Coast.
The female shark has been tagged with a tracker, which registered her being off the coast of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina on October 12.
Since then, the shark has moved further south to the Florida Keys, where she showed up on Saturday.
The shark, named Unama'ki, a term used by indigenous people of Nova Scotia which means "land of the fog."
OCEARCH, a nonprofit that tracks marine life in collaboration with SeaWorld, said it first tagged Unama'ki near Nova Scotia in September.
She is the second biggest white shark the group has tagged in the northwest Atlantic, CNN affiliate WSOC-TV reported.
"As a big mature female, Unama'ki has the potential to lead us to the site where she gives birth and exposes a new white shark nursery," OCEARCH said.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) said that while Florida beaches and waterways "more than likely contain sharks," the animals have played a major role in maintaining balance in the state's ecosystem.
"Shark activity is at its peak in Florida waters during April through October," the FWC said.
However, shark attacks are still rare, with humans being "30 times more likely to be struck by lightning in Florida than to be bitten by a shark." On the other hand, however, fisheries around the world kill around 100 million sharks every year.
The FWC urges visitors to be aware of their surroundings and understand the risks they take swimming in the waters.

The second-largest town in the Peak District, charming Bakewell is a great base for exploring the limestone dales of the White Peak. Filled with storybook stone buildings, the town is ringed by famous walking trails and stately homes, but it's probably best known for its famous Bakewell pudding, a pastry shell filled with jam and a custard-like mixture of eggs, butter, sugar and almonds, invented here in 1820.
Ready to go? Get to the heart of Bakewell with one of Lonely Planet's in-depth, award-winning guidebooks.
Day 1: It's time to leave the big city behind and travel to the Peak District. In the late morning, you arrive in Castleton. This quaint old town attracts travellers from all over the world for its quintessential English charm. Nearby, there are caves, a beautiful view up a valley, and an insightful information centre. You then venture to another beautiful valley at Monsal Head. There's an old rail line viaduct that emerges from the green hills. It's a gorgeous structure with an impressive history. If you're hungry, then you're in luck, because you're stopping for lunch in Bakewell. Not only is this town delicious to look at, but it's also the home of one of England's most famous desserts, the Bakewell Pudding. You should ensure you've cleaned up the crumbs, because now you're heading to Chatsworth House. This luxurious stately home is incredible; you can admire architecture, get lost in a massive maze, or praise precious art. You head off in the early evening to your overnight stop in York.Day 2: You spend this morning in York. You can visit a chocolate museum, find out about the Vikings, or even just stroll around the ancient walls. Around midday, you leave York and head to Goathland. This town was used in the Harry Potter movies and is situated in one of the largest expanses of heather moorland in the UK. Your next stop is Whitby. This is the type of town everyone dreams of retiring in. There's a beautifully-located, ruined abbey; old stone steps curving around viewpoints; and a lovely little beach to play about on. After exploring all the nooks and crannies of Whitby, you travel to Robin Hood's Bay. They doubt if the real Robin Hood ever came here, but there are still plenty of smugglers tales dotted around this remarkable harbour village. You arrive back in York in the early evening.Day 3: It's time to say goodbye to York, England's capital of Vikings and chocolate. And although it's your last day, there's still plenty more to see. You first take the road to Fountains Abbey. This is one of the largest ruined abbeys in England and part of an important UNESCO Heritage site. You then find yourself surrounded by some of England's most lovely waterfalls at Aysgarth. Now, there's a delicious lunch for you, because you're travelling around Wensleydale, home of England's most famous cheese. Just make sure you have some crackers so you can eat it the authentic way. You travel past the epic Ribblehead railway viaduct before having a short snoop around the old castle-topped town of Clitheroe. You arrive in Manchester in the evening.

Central to the continued revitalization is restoration of the Sunset Coffee Building, one of the few remaining industrial buildings on Buffalo Bayou and a contributing structure within downtown's Main Street/Market Square Historic District. The Sunset Coffee Building was built in 1910 as an annex to the 1880's W. D. Cleveland & Son's wholesale grocer supply building. Both buildings were located at the foot of Main Street and specialized in accepting goods as they came into the port. The Sunset Coffee Building functioned as a coffee roasting company, indicating coffee's key role in Houston's economy and development.

Morrisons to trial convenience stores and test online shopping
Morrisons says it is performing "better than ever" and will move into small format stores next year.
By Rosie Baker	 9 Sep 2010 9:10 am
The news comes as the supermarket chain reports a sales increase of 9.1% to £8.1bn for the half year to 1 August.
Morrisons reported a 0.9% rise in like-for-like sales during the period and the supermarket says it now serves 800,000 customers each week.
Underlying profit before tax increased 14% to £410m.
The supermarket chain says it will trial smaller format convenience stores from 2011.
The chain also says an assessment of internet grocery is under way suggesting that the supermarket may introduce online shopping at a later date.
A move into online grocery has been much speculated since Dalton Philips took over as CEO at the start of the year but
Neil Saunders, consulting director of Verdict, says: "Morrisons is right to take its time to investigate this area and find the right model. With the good growth numbers they're showing there is really no need to rush headlong into the internet grocery market."
Morrisons has built its business around fresh produce and is the only major UK supermarket that to slaughter its own meat and produce its own cheese, bacon and sausages, and says it will invest more in food production to further drive its point of difference between rivals Asda, Tesco and Sainsbury's.
Philips says: "There are many opportunities ahead to drive our top line, increase efficiencies in the business and to capture growth. Today we are outlining plans to build on our strengths and generate profitable growth."
Saunders adds that as most of Morrisons' growth is coming from new stores it must look to improve like for like figures and there is a "huge opportunity" for Morrisons to grow sales and share though convenience retailing.

Q: Waking an Ibook G4 (powerpc) running Debian Linux from suspend based on timer I have recently received an Ibook G4 from a friend.  I plan to use it as a server and have installed Debian Wheezy (7.0.0, release version) on it.  However, I would like to suspend it at some points and wake it up - either after a specified time period or when the power cable is plugged in.
As per the documentation for pbbuttonsd, which seems to be slightly more powerful and up to date than pmud, there is in fact an option in the Power Management Unit on these computers to wake up on the basis of a time period.  However, the pbbuttonsd manpage simply says "Other wake up options [other than wake up on button press or lid open] are not foreseen by the kernel at this time."  Since that documentation dates from 2007, I am hoping that this is no longer true.
Trying out the standard rtcwake command gives me an error, saying there is no wakeup option in the /sys directory.
Is there any way to wake up this computer on the basis of a timer / when it is plugged in?
NB: I believe that Wheezy uses kernel version 3.2.0.

Quartier du Musée de Montréal
Although the Museum Quarter obviously owes its name to the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, you need only take a moment to admire the superb facades of its row houses and the rich architecture of each street to realize that the entire Quarter is something of a museum. These beautiful residences, which draw their architectural roots from Italy, England and Scotland, began to appear in 1840 on approximately one square mile of land, where the country's richest families built their homes. This was called the Golden Square Mile and the Museum Quarter is located at the heart of it.
Fashionable, elegant and refined, the Quarter owes its unique ambience to an appealing blend of French elegance and Anglo-Saxon charm. The Quarter is also home not only to such superb churches as Erskine & American United, whose windows are signed by the New York artist Louis C. Tiffany, but to Montreal's very first apartment building, The Sherbrooke, erected in 1889 on the corner of Sherbrooke and Crescent streets.
The commercial character of the Museum Quarter took shape during the post-war years. First to appear were the prestigious galleries, antique dealers and jewellers. Then, in the 1960s, it became the place to be seen. Several fashion designers set up shop in the Quarter and a number of stylists and artists opened studios there. Rue de la Montagne was even immortalized in a song written by Stéphane Venne and sung by Renée Claude. A convivial and informal but refined atmosphere has endured from those years. The Quarter has also maintained its status as a place for the arts, as a tour of the more than one hundred boutiques and galleries will confirm. In its own, unique way, each of these establishments makes the Museum Quarter the preferred meeting place of epicureans from all walks of life, both from Montreal and abroad. We are delighted to count you among them.

You'll also pass by the confluence of the Irrawaddy and the Chindwin River. The cruise will take the full day, so you'll get the chance to relax on board, enjoy the weather and capture the moment in beautiful photographs.
Arrival in Bagan is expected in the evening, so you'll get plenty of time to check in at the hotel.

On the way stop to see the skillful toddy-palm climber collecting the wine at top of trees, toddy palm juice & palm sugar (jaggery). Taste this Burmese candy!
Lunch at Paing Palm Tree Garden.
Then continue to Poa Mountain which rises above the surrounding plain like a Burmese version of My Olympus. Back to your hotel.
Enjoy a free evening in your hotel.
Optional: There is no better or more spectacular view of the ancient kingdom of Bagan than from a hot air balloon. This world-famous archaeological site of more than a thousand Buddhist temples scattered over a plain is at its best when seen from a bird's eye vantage, as the sun comes up gently over the Irrawaddy River.
You will be collected from your hotel in Balloons Team's bus, and provided with a light breakfast and safety briefing while the balloons inflate, before enjoying a dawn flight lasting just under one hour. Flights operate daily from October through to March.
From the 11th to 13th centuries, when Bagan was the capital of Myanmar, the rulers constructed thousands of huge stupas and temples, many of which are still standing today on the banks of the Irrawaddy River.
Later in the morning you will visit the colourful Nyaung Oo Market where every day the locals come to buy and sell fresh produce and other goods before visiting the golden stupa of Shwezigon Pagoda.

Built in the early Mon-style, Ananda contains two unique Buddha images whose expressions seem to change depending on the distance from which the statue is viewed.
Morning transfers will be arranged to Nyaung U Airport for your flight to Yangon and beyond.

"Intelligent" Machine Future Would Be Devoid of Meaning
Transhumanists, you gotta love them. Or pity their withered view of the importance of humanity.
The UK's Astronomer Royal, Martin Rees, celebrates his belief that humanity's future will be carried on by intelligent machines. From "Cheer Up: The Post-Human Era Is Dawning":
The far future will bear traces of humanity, just as our own age retains influences of ancient civilisations. Humans and all they have thought might be a transient precursor to the deeper cogitations of another culture — one dominated by machines, extending deep into the future and spreading far beyond earth.
Oh, joy! Oh, rapture! No real people!
Few doubt that machines will one day surpass more of our distinctively human capabilities. It may take centuries but, compared to the aeons of evolution that led to humanity's emergence, even that is a mere bat of the eye. This is not a fatalistic projection. It is cause for optimism. The civilisation that supplants us could accomplish unimaginable advances — feats, perhaps, that we cannot even understand.
Machines won't be able to craft "civilization." It will just be empty, sterile programming. Not alive. Not really anything but mechanistic activity — less meaningful than the lives of the dinosaurs.
But Rees thinks that the future will belong to machine hyper-geniuses:
Interplanetary and interstellar space will be the preferred arena for the grand constructions of robotic fabricators, including the non-biological brains that might one day develop insights as far beyond our imaginings as string theory is for a monkey.
Even if true, to what end? There would be no awe at the discoveries. No marveling. No humility in the face of the grandeur and complexity of the universe.
Just sterile computation by mechanistic non-beings, meaningless, purposeless, and in the end, pointless.
We have no crystal ball. But it is a fair bet that machines, not organic brains, will most fully understand the cosmos. They may be our own remote descendants. Or they may be out there already, orbiting distant stars. Either way, it will be the actions of autonomous machines that will most drastically change the world, and perhaps what lies beyond.
And there would be no one to care. And, worst of all, no love. Why in the world would anything so sterile and devoid of humanity "cheer me up"?

Q: How do I make Django form fields only editable if they're blank? The use case: It's kind of like a signup sheet. The form has 3 fields, each of which should only be editable if they were blank when the form was requested. Once the form is submitted, these fields for this specific instance of the model shouldn't be editable.
The question: How do I do this? I was thinking of using Javascript to set the fields to editable if they already have something in there, but I'm almost certain there's an easier way.

A: i think the easiest way is to use javascript since it works directly within the browser.
just get the id of your fields and set disabled to true
var myInput = document.getElementById("myFieldId")

if (myInput.value.length != 0) {
    myInput.disabled = true
}

A: You can do a check in the init function of your form and then update the field.
class YourForm(forms.Form):
somefield = forms.Charfield()

def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
    super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
    if self.instance.somefield is not "":
        self.fields['somefield'].disabled = True

Validation should always be done on the server-side and not rely on the client.


Church is not just about meeting together on Sundays. We want to live lives that bring Christ into everything we do.
We have a number of home groups meeting most weeks (one meets daytime; the others evening). These groups are seen as very important to church life and our individual faith journeys. They help us get closer to God by knowing the Bible better and encouraging one another. They are places where people can share openly about their faith and build strong friendships. The style and content of each group varies but all study the Bible and spend time in prayer for one another and wider needs. We hope to build on what we are doing in 2018.
Sometimes we hold a 'United in Prayer' event at church, where we encourage all the home groups (and anyone else) to join together in a meal (bring and share), a short time of worship, and prayer.
Every so often we like to meet together as a church and study the Bible together, led by our minister, Gordon. We believe that whether you're a new Christian or have been following Christ for decades, we are all still learning and trying to get to know God better. It's great to do this with others.
We recognise that some people prefer a quieter, more reflective worship style. Our evening communion is generally on the first Sunday of each month at 6pm for around one hour. It's a small but friendly congregation, and anyone is extremely welcome.
Our children are so important to our church family – we are blessed to have them.
On a Sunday morning, everyone starts the service together and the children are normally involved in the main service at the beginning. The children then join their Seekers' groups. There is provision for children aged 3-11, with activities, craft, Bible stories and prayer to help our children to have fun, and learn about Jesus' amazing love for them. The children are really 'going for God' in a big way and have really let Jesus into their lives. We regularly encourage our children to be part of the morning worship service.
We also have a creche for those under 3. It is a safe place to leave your child, enabling you to enjoy the rest of the service.
QPBC is fully committed to safeguarding children, young people, and adults at risk, with an appropriate policy and procedure. All leaders and helpers have a DBS check and are given appropriate training.
Please do come and find out more about our children's work by speaking to us before or after our services on Sunday.
We believe in prayer, and we strive to spend more time in conversation with God, our Father. Once every few months we like to focus more intensely on prayer and devote a week to Special Times of Prayer, with specific prayer points. Each day in STOP week, we meet together for prayer at church, with prayer times scheduled at different times of the day (some early morning; some mid-morning; some evening etc). Everyone is encouraged to come along when they can, for however long they can, and those who aren't able to attend are still able to take part by praying through the prayer points wherever they are.
Tuesday and Thursday mornings 9.30-12pm in the Church hall.
QPBC has been making space available to all who would come in for a chat and refreshments during the week. All too often people find churches closed during the week, but we wanted to open our space to those who need a chat, company, a hot drink and a friendly face. We operate a confidential listening service with trained listeners. We believe there is a need in our community for this service and we have offered listening in the locality for over five years.
Maybe you need to talk to someone who isn't a friend or family member. We can offer a 30 minute period of listening, it's a 121 session with a Listener who will give you their full attention, who won't interrupt or judge or tell you what you should do.
Ladies' Circle comes together on a fortnightly basis on a Wednesday, meeting at the church about 8.00 pm.
It is a fun evening and a great time of fellowship and friendship. A varied programme is put together at the beginning of each term and includes theatre trips, talks, devotions and meals out. A minimal subscription is paid weekly and at the end of the year a gift is sent to an overseas missionary hospital.
Please contact the office if you would like to know more or want to join!

Ready or Not, the Third Intifada May Be Here
A spike in violent attacks on Wednesday make renewed conflict between Israelis and Palestinians impossible to ignore.
Adam Chandler
Mussa Qawasma / Reuters
For more than a year, there's been sustained debate about whether the ongoing tensions and fits of violence in Israel, the West Bank, and in particular, Jerusalem, would fully culminate in a third Palestinian uprising.
In recent months, amid failed peace talks, continued fallout from the latest war in Gaza, politically motivated riots and car attacks, deadly rock-throwing and deadly responses to rock-throwing, stabbings, fatal arson and shootings, clashes at holy sites, the expansion of settlements and price-tag attacks, the rhetorical canceling of both previous peace deals, and the future peace process, the answer seems to increasingly be this: A Third Intifada is here and it doesn't resemble the previous two.
On Wednesday, just days after the 15th anniversary of the Second Intifada, the implicit seemed to become explicit. Across Israel, the West Bank, and in particular, Jerusalem, violence swelled with riots, car attacks, stone-throwing, stabbings, and arrests. "A Wave of Terror" is how The Jerusalem Post characterized the day's violence on its live-blog.
Owing to the violence, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu canceled a trip to Germany where he was set to celebrate 50 years of Israeli-German relations. "We are still in the midst of a wave of terror," Netanyahu said on Wednesday. "We have known worse times than this and we will also overcome this wave of terrorism with determination, responsibility, and unity."
Meanwhile, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas sought to distance himself from the violence. "I support a popular, nonviolent struggle and oppose all violence and use of weapons. I've made clear a number of times that I don't want to return to the cycle of violence," Abbas told Haaretz.
At many turns over the past year, both men have continued to accuse the other of incitement to violence, including during competing United Nations addresses last week. One upshot of the fraying relationship between the two sides is diminished cooperation between Israeli and Palestinian security forces, which has been a keystone of limiting violence throughout the years.
Although PA sources denied it, last night Israeli and PA security officials met, trying to calm down the situation
— avi issacharoff (@issacharoff) October 7, 2015
The character of the recent violence has also changed from previous years, which has made it more difficult to contain. The rise of more "lone wolf attacks," be it by settler youth in the West Bank or more pedestrian Palestinian attacks that come without coordination from terrorist groups, have given some sense of spontaneity to the violence. As a result, the tensions have remained at a low simmer, never fully escalating and never fully receding.
That may have changed with Wednesday's riots and surge in violence. No matter what, it's bad news for everyone.

Looking for an outstanding Napa Cabernet for $50? This one fits just fine. This is drinking just great right now but will easily last a decade. 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Merlot, 3% Malbec,1% Petit Verdot. Purple in color. The nose is great with cassis, a bit of pencil lead, coffee and a slight dusty note. On the palate, this has medium tannins. Great balance. Plenty of cassis fruit over a dry earthy note. Good finish. This will go well with a variety of heavier dishes from BBQ to roasts.

Ranking reveals best (and worst) sports teams of 2018
Kelsey Driscoll
AOL.com January 2, 2019
The Golden State Warriors may have secured dynasty status with their third NBA title in four years, but that didn't make them the best team of 2018.
Other championship teams, including the Philadelphia Eagles, Villanova Wildcats and Alabama Crimson Tide, were in the conversation but fell short of that honor, as well.
Based on a ranking by FiveThirtyEight, the best team across (almost) all sports in 2018 was none other than the 108-win, World Series champion Boston Red Sox.
Somewhat surprisingly, 2018's No. 2 team also hailed from the MLB – the Houston Astros, who fell to the Red Sox in this year's ALCS, came in just behind the champs.
Baseball's banner year didn't stop there. FiveThirtyEight also ranked the worst teams of the past 12 months, and that undesirable title was taken by the Baltimore Orioles. Baltimore's season was even more dismal than those of the New York Jets, Phoenix Suns and Miami Marlins.
You can check out the full ranking of the best – and "crummiest" – teams of 2018 over at FiveThirtyEight.
