Mercedes-Benz partners with speech AI tech startup Sonantic to make "Hey Mercedes" voice assistant emotionally expressive in its newly launch Vision EQXX
Nickie Louise Posted On January 6, 2022
On January 3, Mercedes-Benz AG launched its Vision EQXX concept car, setting the technical tone for the marque's next-generation production electric vehicles (EVs). Vision EQXX is the company's most efficient electric vehicle ever built. German automaker presented the car earlier this week in a digital world premiere on the Mercedes me media online platform.
As part of the debut, Mercedes-Benz also partnered with speech AI tech startup Sonantic to offer fully expressive AI-generated voice models. As part of the partnership, Mercedes-Benz engineers worked with Sonantic to make its "Hey Mercedes" voice assistant emotional and expressive.
Powered by artificial intelligence, the fourth generation of Mercedes luxury A-Class cars features a "first of its kind" native voice assistant built into the Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX) infotainment system. Similar to Siri and Google Assistant, the MBUX system responds to voice commands prompted by "Hey Mercedes".
The "Hey Mercedes!" assistant allows drivers to interact with the vehicle quickly and easily. The "Hey Mercedes" commands are the key to unlocking the full potential of Vision EQXX's multimedia system. With the help of machine learning, the car's road trip sidekick has a distinctive character and personality, making the conversation between driver and car more natural and intuitive than ever before.
Sonantic's cutting-edge technology creates hyper-realistic artificial voices that can be sculpted, edited, and directed to sound just like a human voice. The proprietary technology focuses on the nuances of human speech — such as accents, pitch, pacing, and a full range of emotions and delivery styles — to create captivating, AI-generated voice performances.

Zeena Qureshi, CEO of Sonantic, said, "We're proud to partner with Mercedes-Benz AG, a company that has championed innovation for nearly a century. Together, we are united in the belief that realistic, AI-generated voices can elevate the driver experience to a whole new level. I can't think of a better way to showcase the future of voice than in the future of cars."
"Everyone can tell when they're speaking to a robotic, automated system. When we create Sonantic's voice models, we focus on emotion, expression, and empathy," said John Flynn, CTO of Sonantic. "Imagine driving to your next destination being guided by a comforting companion, rather than a computer. Mercedes-Benz is a global pioneer and we couldn't be more excited to be a part of this groundbreaking moment in automotive innovation."
Founded in 2018, Sonantic has built a powerful, AI voice platform that creates compelling, nuanced, and stunningly realistic voice models. This innovative technology is poised to revolutionize text-to-speech capabilities like never before. With backgrounds ranging from speech and language therapy to Hollywood sound production, Sonantic's founders are committed to bridging the worlds of creative expression and advanced technology.

We finally prioritized mobile above DK2 dev, and have compiled our first fast demo for the superb GearVR platform by Samsung.
Witness : the future. a truly mobile VR picnic.
Way back in 2005, I was in the business of creating massive multiplayer augmented reality systems. My team created playspaces which could read up to 200 players simultaneously, using high-powered projectors to paint the space with light, complex multi-camera arrays to sense the people and their movements… and very highly tuned algorithms to transform those raw camera feeds into usable structured data, in real time, with near-zero latency. This was called markerless motion capture, or markerless mocap. It was before Microsoft Kinect, before time-of-flight, and was considered one of the holy grails of computer vision.
We were able to package all this equipment: CPU, GPU, projector, cameras… all into a single piece of unified hardware. Our first build weighed in at 110 lbs.
I lugged that beast all around North America, paying the steep fees to airlines and hurting my back all the while. Due to the physical stresses, I demanded that we bring the weight in under 50 lbs, the top limit of airlines, and indeed, with some clever mechanical engineering, we were able to accomplish that goal.
Gizmo v3 weighed in at a svelte, travel-ready 49.9 lbs. including high-lumen projector, camera-array, power supply, CPU, GPU, and fans.
Nonetheless, 49.9 lbs was still a hell of a lot to haul around, especially given my 13th story walk-up apartment in Lower East Side, Manhattan where I was based at the time. On the 20th time I climbed those stairs, I swore to the gods above that never again would I haul heavy hardware around the planet.
That promise held true for many years. Until now. Now, in 2015, somehow we find ourselves again in need of high powered GPUs, with the accompanying massive power supplies and cases. Thank the gods, I was able to engineer this thing to less than 20 lbs this time: the cameras are featherlight, and the projectors are replaced by goggles. Instead of projecting to an outerworld, we are creating rich innerworlds. However, its still a massive amount of heavy iron.
a seminal board meeting of my former company.
But as the days, months, and years went on, I realised the wisdom of my father's words. First came the pico-projectors, medium-lumen LED-powered HD projectors that were the size of a matchbox. Next came the low-powered, high-resolution stereoscopic camera arrays, these the size of a dime. And finally came nVidia's Tegra line of GPUs, ulttra-fast graphics supercomputers that were purpose-designed for smartphones and tablets.
Before I knew it, all the parts were in place.
Which brings us to the present moment.
Once again, we have built graphics supercomputers to ease our entry into real-time, high-performance VR. We tweak and optimize every component to maintain the floor 75fps required for genuine presence.
the engine of our current VR-PC, the venerable Radeon 7990. 400 watts of energy draw, 4 gigaflops of graphics supercomputing horsepower, and 75fps on our Oculus Rift.
And then, I got a Samsung Note4 and the GearVR peripheral, a hardware/software combo lovingly hand-architected by none other than John Carmack, designed to deliver high-performance VR in a truly mobile form factor.
Samsung GearVR : the harbinger of the final form factor of VR : light, wireless, fast, mobile.
The shocker? To date, my GearVR has outperformed all desktop solutions we've created.
AND, the added element of freedom of physical movement is not even factored in here. The ability to bring your GearVR on a picnic in an Adidas sport bag, as opposed to bringing people into your studio and holding the cords out of their way… that alone justifies the Gear.


After years of the fandom asking J.K. Rowling to give us more information about the Marauders and their early adventures, last year she finally answered our pleas with a movie about that beast brochure she wrote that one time. But the uproar in the fandom with the release of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them showed just how desperate we fans are to have any new material associated with the wizarding world of Harry Potter.
So it got me thinking: why stop with Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them? Here is a list of more ideas for J.K. Rowling.
Starting with a series of books and later being turned into a movie series, this could even have the potential to take on Sherlock Holmes. The story would revolve around Neville Longbottom- Herbology professor by day and a detective by night. He would use his dashing good looks and his amazing knowledge of plants to solve crimes like Neville Longbottom and the Curse of the Mandrakes, Neville Longbottom and the Gillyweed Incident, Neville Longbottom and the Pus from the Mimbulus Mimbletonia, and the very last book Neville Longbottom and the Wrong Kind Of Weed.
Ginny Weasley's guide on how to get your favourite celebrity to notice you, and possibly want to make babies with you (the first step would probably be having your brother be best friends with the said celebrity). Ginny is definitely one of the most badass characters in the main series. Who wouldn't want a 500-page book about how she charmed The Chosen One?
I cannot be the only one who has wondered about the adventures of Charlie Weasley and his dragons. The time he smuggled Norbert the Norwegian Ridgeback out of Hogwarts, the time he had to sneak four fully-grown dragons into the country for the Triwizard Tournament and the countless adventures he probably had in Albania. The books write themselves!
A comedy TV show about teenage years of Professor Trelawney - the story revolving around her, her dysfunctional group of friends and the mishaps that occur due to Trelawney's (mostly wrong) predictions. This could be the next Emmy-winning sitcom.
Many a time had Luna mentioned this elusive magical creature in the books. But do they actually exist? A movie about Luna and her quest for the Crumple-Horned Snorkack, encountering dark wizards and maybe finding true love along the way.
The title says it all. If successful, they could even be turned into an album. After all, who wouldn't want to hear Peeves' rendition of "Weasley Is Our King"?
Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore illustrates his daring escape from having to look after his Squib sister and goat-loving brother.
This is for those of you who took up engineering only because your parents wanted to have an engineer in the family. Arthur Weasley's simple guide explaining all Muggle gadgets will rescue you from those tedious classes and you can finally secure that A grade. If you order the special edition guide you get an exclusive chapter explaining the exact function of the rubber duck.
So there you go J.K. Rowling, these will be enough to keep us Potterheads sane for another decade or so.
On the off-chance that J.K. Rowling does not come across these ideas feel free to send me some donations so that I can bring the above masterpieces to life.


Action Against Hunger's international network produces a variety of published works from context analysis and regional assessments to community surveys and field reports.
Nigeria is ranked as the third country with the highest absolute number of children less than five years of age in need of treatment for severe acute malnutrition. In 2012, the nutritional anthropometric survey conducted in Yobe State, indicated global acute malnutrition (GAM) rates of 14.5% and severe acute malnutrition (SAM) rates of 3.1%. In February 2011, Action Against Hunger began supporting a sustainable approach to integration of community– based management of acute malnutrition (CMAM) for SAM in three Local Government Areas (LGAs) in Yobe State, Nigeria.
In many refugee contexts, maternal undernutrition and sub-optimal IYCF practices contribute to the burden of acute malnutrition. In 2011, UNHCR and partners renewed effort to support maternal, infant, and young child nutrition (MIYCN) in established and new Dadaab refugee camps in Kenya where GAM and maternal anemia was prevalent and feeding practices sub-optimal. Led by Action Against Hunger, the initiative developed a common results framework and communication model with nutrition and health services and allied sectors such as WASH and livelihoods.
This case study introduces tests completed in the province of Sindh in Southern Pakistan on improved cooking stoves known as Chulli. The Chulli enables water treatment through the use of a water heating mechanism.
This case study shares the experience of Action Against Hunger in Pakistan to look for solutions to help women address their individual needs for defecation and menstruation.
The REFANI literature review identifies existing evidence on the use of Cash Transfer Programmes (CTPs) and their impact on acute malnutrition in humanitarian contexts. The review also identifies key gaps that remain in the evidence base. For more information on REFANI, please visit our website.
The REFANI Somalia study is a case control study assessing the role of cash transfer programmes in reducing the risk of acute malnutrition in Somalia. In collaboration between the Institute for Global Health at University College of London (UCL) and Concern Worldwide, the Somalia study will study the implementation of an unconditional emergency cash transfer programme (CTP) in the Afgoye Corridor region, close to Mogadishu.
To have a long term, sustainable and significant impact on undernutrition two things are needed; a multi-sectoral preventative approach and an effective curative service at scale. We believe in effective prevention and effective management of undernutrition as two inseparable parts of an effective global effort towards nutrition security.
A research uptake strategy (RUS) is currently being implemented by the REFANI project, which includes all the activities that facilitate the use of REFANI results by decision-makers in both policy and practice.
The REFANI partners have identified a number of evidence gaps within their comprehensive literature review. In short, the review finds that, although complicated, given that the impact pathways of cash transfer programmes (CTPs) are numerous and contextspecific, a greater understanding of how (i.e. the mechanisms through which) these transfers work is necessary.

There are a lot of sources for general Xbox news and information (you're reading one of them right now, in fact), but there are a few highly specialized websites tucked away in the corners of the internet that you might not know about, but every Xbox fan should. These are our picks for five websites every Xbox fan should bookmark.
Major Nelson, real name Larry Hryb, is Microsoft's Director of Programming for Xbox Live. Some argue he's just a corporate shill and always has to toe the company line, but his blog is a great source of official information about all things Xbox. He posts about the weekly sales in the Xbox Games Store, when games go up for pre-order/pre-download, and when games go live for download on launch day. He also posts a lot of other Xbox-related news as well. Sure, it is from a company pitchman, but it's official information straight from Microsoft, which beats getting info passed through a filter of cynicism and negativity like "GeoNAF."
If you don't want to wait for Major Nelson to post information on deals and sales, the XBLDB should be at least a weekly stop. This site monitors the Xbox Games Store for Xbox 360 and Xbox One and automatically posts whenever a game drops in price. This way you can see what the weekly sales are going to be or what games are on sale during the "Ultimate Games on Demand" sales Microsoft runs a few times per year hours, and sometimes days before other websites report them. Lots of people pretend like there aren't good deals and sales on digital games on Xbox 360 and Xbox One, but XBLDB proves them wrong week after week after week. If you want to save money, you need to bookmark XBLDB.
Note: This site seems to no longer be working. We've left this information in the article for historical purposes.
If you don't want to buy dedicated equipment to make your own gaming videos, a great feature on Xbox One is the ability to easily record clips of your gameplay by just saying "Xbox, record that," but what do you do with those clips after they're recorded? You can watch them on your Xbox One and share them with friends that way, or watch them on Xbox.com, but there is another, better, way. Xbox Clips is a website that features all of the clips everyone has recorded and lets you easily search for specific Gamertags of your friends or check out the most popular clips of any and every game. Even better, you can easily download the clips to your computer to edit and use later (though you really should ask permission from the Gamertag you're downloading clips from before you use them). You can also easily share clips on social media with just a click which, along with being able to download the files, makes Xbox Clips our go-to site for Xbox One gameplay clips.
Xbox Live is a great service, but occasionally it goes down. Sometimes it is due to an extremely high volume of traffic, or a bunch of script kiddies launching DDoS attacks, or other unforeseen issues. Whatever the reason, you don't need to go to your favorite forum or social media and ask "Is Xbox Live down for anyone else?" because Microsoft has an Xbox Live Status page on Xbox.com that will tell you exactly what is going on. Just check the Xbox Live Status page and you'll see exactly what services are affected on both Xbox 360 and Xbox One. Xbox Live is usually pretty stable, but for those times when there is a problem, it is nice to have an official source of info.
There are lots of achievement websites out there, but the best one of the bunch is Xbox Achievements. They don't just re-post the same list that everyone else posts and call it a day, either. They have full achievement guides, game reviews that talk specifically about the quality of the achievements, and a great forum for each and every game where community members can discuss achievements as well as help each other "boost" for tricky multiplayer cheevos. Not everyone cares about gamerscore and achievements, and that's fine, but if you do then XboxAchievements should be your No. 1 resource.

Q: Can I prevent passing wrong number of parameters to methods with JS Lint, JS Hint, or some other tool? I'm new to javascript programming (and scripting languages in general), but I've been using JS Lint to help me when I make syntax errors or accidentally declare a global variable.
However, there is a scenario that JS Lint does not cover, which I feel would be incredibly handy. See the code below:
(function () {
    "use strict";
    /*global alert */

    var testFunction = function (someMessage) {
        alert("stuff is happening: " + someMessage);
    };

    testFunction(1, 2);
    testFunction();
}());

Notice that I am passing the wrong number of parameters to testFunction. I don't foresee myself ever in a situation where I would intentionally leave out a parameter or add an extra one like that. However, neither JS Lint nor JS Hint consider this an error.
Is there some other tool that would catch this for me? Or is there some reason why passing parameters like that shouldn't be error checked?

A: This is not generally possible with any static analysis tool.  There are several reasons for this:

*

*In general, JS functions can accept any number of arguments.

*Most (all?) linters only work on a single file at a time. They do not know anything about functions declared in other files

*There is no guarantee that a property being invoked as a function is the function that you expect. Consider this snippet:
var obj = { myFunc : function(a,b) { ... } };
var doSomething(x) { x.myFunc = function(a) { ... }; };
doSomething(obj);
obj.myFunc();

There is no way to know that myFunc now takes a different number of args after the call to doSomething.
JavaScript is a dynamic language and you should accept and embrace that.
Instead of relying on linting to catch problems that it wasn't intended to I would recommend adding preconditions to your functions that does the check.
Create a helper function like this:
function checkThat(expression, message) {
  if (!expression) {
    throw new Error(message);
  }
}

Then use it like this:
function myFunc(a, b) {
  checkThat(arguments.length === 2, "Wrong number of arguments.");

And with proper unit testing, you should never see this error message in production.

A: It's not natively possible in javascript.  You would have to do something like this:
var testFunction = function (someMessage) {
    var args = Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments);
    if (args.length !== 1) throw new Error ("Wrong number of arguments");
    if (typeof args[1] !== string)  throw new Error ("Must pass a string");
    // continue
};

A: Paul Irish demoed a hack for this a while back...passing undefined at the end of the parameters...

var testFunction = function (someMessage, undefined) {
  alert("stuff is happening: " + someMessage);
};
testFunction("one", "two", "three");

He demos it here...see if it's what your looking for.

Reports of Cases in the Supreme Court of Appeals of Virginia, Том 49
Авторы: Virginia. Supreme Court of Appeals
DECIDED IN TIIE
SUPREME COURT OF APPEALS
AND IN THE
BY PEACHY R. GRATTAN.
VOL. VII.
FROM JULY 1, 1851, TO JULY 1, 15:2.
SECOND EDITION.
RICHMOND:
J. 11. O'BANXON, sup'T PUBLIC PRINTING.
Entered according to the Act of Congress, this twenty-second day of December, one thousand eight hundred and fifty-two, for the Commonwealth of Virginia, in the Clerk's Office of the District Court of the Eastern District of Virginia.
With this volume the report of the decisions of the Court of appeals under the constitution of 1829, and of the General court, are completed. The first court is succeeded by the Supreme court of appeals under the constitution of 1851. In this court is vested the criminal as well as the civil appellate jurisdiction ; and the General court has been abolished. The General court was one of the earliest courts established in the province of Virginia, and was then held by the Governor and Council. It received its name of Gen eral court in 1661-2, and then had general jurisdiction of all causes, civil and criminal. After the revolution and the establishment of the Supreme court of appeals, the jurisdiction of the General court was confined to the appellate criminal jurisdiction, cases connected with the revenue, and to the taking probat of wills and granting administration upon intestates' estates, in which its jurisdiction was concurrent with the District and afterwards the Circuit, County and Corporation courts throughout the State.
After an existence of one hundred and ninety years under the same name, it has at length been abolished ; leaving to us only the memory of its faithful and pure administration of justice.
Until the constitution of 1851 went into operation, the judges of the Supreme court of appeals and of the General court held their offices for life; and the advocates of an independent judiciary looked forward with some apprehen

Yonder Mountain String Band brings late night jam grass to Red Rocks (photos, review)
By Candace Horgan Aug 24, 2015, 8:07 am
A friend of mine calls it "mountain disco." Others call it "jam grass." Whatever you call it, there's no denying its energy, and for almost five hours on Friday night at Red Rocks, Yonder Mountain String Band and Greensky Bluegrass threw it down with aplomb.
It felt like a co-headliner show, though technically Greensky opened, playing a 90-minute set before Yonder's two long sets and 20-minute encore. Greensky found its mark right from the opening notes of "Ain't No Bread in the Breadbox," with mandolin player Paul Hoffman and guitarist Dave Bruzza harmonizing beautifully on the opening verse and leading into an extended break. Michael Bont played a rollicking banjo solo to kick off the jam, and after another verse, Hoffman and Bruzza both took solos, bringing smiles to everyone's faces.
The energy continued into "Worried About the Weather," as after an initial solo on Dobro from Anders Beck, Hoffman took a quick break, then nodded in Beck's direction, starting a call and response solo that led Beck, Bruza, Hoffman, and bassist Mike Devol to all congregate around each other on one side of the stage, trading off solos.
Beck also drove a long jam on "Kerosene," using a distortion pedal on his Dobro to great effect, building his solo to a long and fiery crescendo.
Greensky played several songs from its most recent album "If Sorrows Swim," including "Burn Them" and "Leap Year," the latter of which closed their set after a long jam through "Broke Mountain Breakdown" and "Wings for Wheels." As the band slowed its final jam on "Leap Year," the fans started singing the "Whoah oh" line.
After a short break, Yonder Mountain String Band kicked off the first of its two sets with "Around You." It quickly became clear that the band's two new members, mandolinist Jake Jolliff and fiddle player Allie Kral, have settled in with the band and that the quintet is working well as a unit. During the transitional jam from "Only a Northern Song" to "Sidewalk Stars," Jolliff first kicked things into high gear with a rapid fire solo, then Kral stepped and took over. At one point, the two were trading licks back and forth in true bluegrass style.
Yonder delved into several songs from its recently released CD "Black Sheep," including the title track, during which the lighting engineer had fun by projecting stylized images of sheep onto the stone monolith behind the stage, rapidly spinning them about.
Both Jolliff and Kral stepped up not only as instrumentalists, but as vocalists. Kral shone on the first set closer, "All Aboard."
Jolliff shone instrumentally on the intro to "Drawing a Melody," picking a rapid fire arpeggio, while Kral took a long solo on her violin mid-song. The rest of the band clearly had fun introducing Jolliff and Kral to playing at Red Rocks, with bassist Ben Kaufmann explaining it was their first Red Rocks show and asking the crowd to welcome them.
Kaufmann later joked about dreaming about opening for Bruce Springsteen before launching into the Springsteen tune "It's Hard to Be a Saint in the City," which had a transitional jam to "Eat In Go Deaf" driven by Dave Johnston on the banjo.
Kral then joked that while Ben dreams of opening for Bruce, she dreams of opening for Dolly Parton as an intro to "Jolene," sung by Kral. The song started with a slow, silky violin intro from Kral, and a long mid-song jam gave Adam Aijala a chance to shine. Aijala also stepped up on "Landfall," a song he sings from the latest album.
The second set closed with a brilliant "Angel," sung by Johnston, that had a wild transition into "Robots." The latter found Jolliff and Aijala using distortion on their solos and a dark, almost power-chord break before finishing with "Angel."
The encore featured all 10 members of both Greensky Bluegrass and Yonder Mountain String Band. Kaufmann threw a fake out in his intro, saying the encore would have a "street theme." Instead of the expected cover of the Grateful Dead's "Shakedown Street," the two bands launched into a furious version of "Traffic Jam," with everyone taking solos, leading into the Greensky tune "Jaywalking" before finishing again with "Traffic Jam."
Both Yonder Mountain String Band and Greensky Bluegrass announced fall Colorado shows Friday night. Yonder will once again play the Boulder Theater for New Year's, while Greensky will play a three-night run at the Ogden in November.

What can we learn from two of Paul's associates, Mark and Demas? Paul writes, "Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, greets you, as do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, Luke, my fellow workers" (Philemon 23-24; see Colossians 4:10, 14).
Later Paul mentions both of them again, but note the change: ". . . Demas, having loved this present world, has deserted me and gone to Thessalonica . . . . Pick up Mark and bring him with you, for he is useful to me for service" (2 Timothy 4:10-11).
The same sort of scenario continues to play itself out in our day. Sitting perhaps on the same pew are two Christians. At one time Brother A could not be depended on to do his part, but that's behind him now. Nearby, Brother B participates in the singing and bows his head for the prayers, but his heart is leaning increasingly toward the world. It won't be long until he leaves the Lord and His church—another of Satan's statistics.
So often in the Bible we see a stark contrast between two and only two mutually-exclusive alternatives: the wise and foolish builders, the broad and narrow ways, God's wrath and God's mercy, etc.
"Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for unless you believe that I am He, you will die in your sins" (John 8:24).
"For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who have fallen asleep in Jesus" (1 Thessalonians 4:14).
What is the deciding factor that determines which way we die? Our relationship to Jesus. Without Him, we have no forgiveness and we will die in our sins.
But if we have put on Christ, then that's how we'll die: in Him. Those who live and die in Christ have had their sin problem effectively removed by His blood (Romans 5:9; 1 John 1:7). No sin stands as a barrier between them and their holy God.
Lessons for us today: 1) The only way to be ready for death is to be in Christ. 2) The only way to be in Christ is through faith in Him and obedience to Him (Mark 16:15-16; 2 Thessalonians 1:7-9; Hebrews 5:8-9). There is no other way.
If we have put on Christ in baptism (Galatians 3:27), then let's give top priority to: 1) maintaining our connection with Christ, never losing our grip on Him, our only hope (John 15:6; 2 Peter 1:3-11; 2:20-22); and 2) helping others find their hope in Him (1 Corinthians 9:19-22).
Then both we and they can fall asleep in Jesus.
Even though each offer was marked "IMPORTANT," I discarded both of them.
We are so bombarded daily with sales appeals that it really takes a creative marketer to come up with a pitch that truly grabs our attention.
Yet we know some things are highly important—some far more so than others.
What do you suppose Jesus would consider of supreme importance? We don't have to wonder.
By studying His life and teachings we can see clearly what stood out for Him above all other claims.
"My food," He said, "is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to accomplish His work" (John 4:34).
"But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things [daily necessities] will be added to you" (Matthew 6:33).
"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth . . . . But store up for yourselves treasure in heaven . . . for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also" (Matthew 6:19-21).
Are His priorities our priorities? Are His values ours?
The Good Samaritan did something the priest and Levite were unwilling to do. He went way out of his way, expending time, effort, and money to aid the wounded traveler. He was willing to be seriously inconvenienced (Luke 10:25-37).
The father of the Prodigal didn't wait for his son to come to him—he ran to meet him! He threw a big party in his joy over his son's return. The elder brother was anything but happy about his father's giving his younger brother such a lavish homecoming (Luke 15:11-32).
The master of the servant who owed him millions of dollars cancelled the entire debt. He didn't have to do this—he chose to. The forgiven servant, however, was not willing to pass on the grace he had received. He insisted that a fellow servant pay him what he owed, turning a deaf ear to his pleas for mercy, which echoed his own pitiful pleading when he himself had begged his master to be patient with him (Matthew 18:21-35).
The priest and Levite, the elder brother, and the unforgiving servant are cold and cruelly uncaring. In contrast, the Good Samaritan, the welcoming father, and the merciful master show warmth, love, and grace.
One word all three parables have in common is compassion (Matthew 18:27; Luke 10:33; 15:20). Compassion is what moved the master to forgive his servant, the Samaritan to stop and help, and the father to run out to meet his returning son.
Is it any wonder that this same word compassion is used numerous times of our Lord (Matthew 9:36; 14:14; 15:32; 20:34; Mark 1:41; Luke 7:13)?
Can others see by our actions a reflection of His compassionate heart?


I received veggie burgers free of charge from Dr. Praeger's. This is not a compensated post and all opinions are my own.
I'm no vegetarian, but I love plant-based products, including veggie burgers! Dr. Praeger's recently reached out to me to see if I'd like to try out their new Super Greens burgers, made with teff, hemp, collard greens, kale, swiss chard, and quinoa. Yes please! I love having veggie burgers on hand in the freezer to either use in recipes or eat by themselves.
I received complimentary product coupons for review purposes. I received no monetary compensation for this post and opinions are my own.
Firstly, let me announce the winner of my Redpack Tomatoes giveaway…it's Annie of Avocado Athlete! Congrats, girl!
Now I know it seems a bit meh for me to do two product/giveaway posts in a row, but I'm keepin it real: both were due this week, and I do like to give you guys a chance to win products that I actually enjoy. And I seriously enjoyed (and am still enjoying, because there's some Smart Dogs in my freezer right now waiting to be used) Lightlife veggie products! I have been a fan of cooking with vegetarian "meat" for awhile, and was excited for the chance to try a new brand.
I received complimentary Redpack products in exchange for writing this post. All opinions are my own and I received no monetary compensation.
Redpack Tomatoes approached me about not only receiving a slow cooker gift pack, but also giving one away to a reader. I love reviewing products that I get to give to readers too so I was all on board! They sent me a can of Tomato Sauce and two cans of Crushed Tomatoes in Thick Puree. Plus a charming wooden spoon!
WIAW: Taste of Nature Bar Giveaway!
I received complimentary samples of Taste of Nature bars to review. This is not a sponsored post and my opinions are my own.
This post is not about the type of bar folks usually associate me with. No cocktails here, just what cocktails usually lead to – snacks! Taste of Nature reached out to me to ask if I'd be interested in doing a blog post about their bars, and once I checked out the flavor variety and the nutrition facts, I was 100% on board. Plus they're up for doing a giveaway with five winners, which is rare to find in the blog world and something I didn't want you guys to miss out on!
The perfect giveaway for a WIAW link-up!
Fashion Friday: Nancy Rose Performance Giveaway!
I received a complimentary outfit from Nancy Rose Performance for purposes of review. All opinions are my own. This is not a sponsored post.
It's been awhile since my last Fashion Friday and today's is a giveaway for an outfit from Nancy Rose Performance! The brand contacted me last month to find out if I'd be interested in testing out a top/bottom and giving the same combo to a reader. I have plenty of workout clothes but I'm always game to try more, especially those that look nothing like other gear I own, like the Releve Tank.
I wore this to spin class! It was a bit hard to figure out how to tie at first but I got it eventually.
My First Thinking Out Loud Thursday!
I definitely am feeling some of that pre-holiday and pre-vacation stress, and also trying to figure out where 2014 will take me. I need to make some big decisions about my career, my location, and just how much uncertainty I can handle. I have SO much on my mind that I figure it will help get it all off my chest to think out loud a bit.
Amanda's new link-up has already seen great success!
1. I cannot stand the aforementioned uncertainty. I have no idea what I'll be doing or where I'll be this time next year. Okay, maybe I have some small idea of where I'll be. But what I'm doing? I don't even know. I keep wishing for something to come along that will be a huge "sign" and tell me exactly what to do with my life and what direction to go in and what decision to make and when to make it. I know, be careful what I wish for, because that something could end up being awful!
Remember there's a more local giveaway going on right now too – I'm giving one lucky reader a pair of tickets to see CONNetic Dance's production of "The Nutcracker: Suite & Spicy" this Friday or Saturday night in Downtown Hartford! You have until tomorrow night to enter!
I've been fortunate enough to receive gift code for products from Swanson Vitamins in the past and have always been happy with the quality of what I received as well as the customer service. So when they asked me to be one of the 30 bloggers participating in their 30-Day Healthier Holiday Giveaway, I said yes without hesitation!
I was given a $100 credit to Swanson Vitamins and managed to place a massive order because I sorted the products from lowest to highest price 😉 so I got tons of cheaper stuff as opposed to a few higher priced items.
CONNetic Dance Nutcracker Ticket Giveaway!
Last holiday season I had the opportunity to see the Sunday matinee of CONNetic Dance's The Nutcracker: Suite & Spicy at Downtown Hartford's Wadsworth Atheneum. You can see my review here. Director/founder Carolyn Paine is a friend of mine as well as a huge part of Hartford's cultural scene. She is one of those awesome people like Chion Wolf who I see at almost every area event; she's on a mission to show the state that Hartford Has It. Well it's that time of year again…CONNetic Dance will be performing The Nutcracker: Suite & Spicy at the same venue this coming Friday 12/20 and Saturday 12/21 at 8PM, and Sunday 12/22 at 2PM. Tickets are $30 each and can be purchased here.
My favorite dance of the show.
This year CONNetic is literally mixing things up by adding an official cocktail sponsor – Tanduay Asian Rum! You may recall that I am a fan (may or may not have had some last night, ice cold with a splash of sweet vermouth, not bad for a Monday). Tanduay will be pouring in the lobby and the program will have special recipes developed just for the show. Here's a preview!


Colombia police confirmed the murder of the president of Sucre City Council Gilberto Diaz this Sunday.
The city council member for the left-wing Polo Democratico Alternativo (PDA) party was mortally wounded after being shot by hit men in his family home.
The commander specified that two masked me entered his house during the night, while his family was also present, shooting him three times in the head as he watched television. He died of his injuries in a Popayan hospital not long after.
Perez furthermore offered a $5,000 reward to anyone with information regarding those responsible for the crime.
Daza, who had been working as a city council member for more than a decade, will be remembered for defending water rights in the area — opposing the Departmental Water Plan, the privatization of the municipal aqueduct as well as mining exploitation by multinational companies.
Critics on the left have accused the authorities of taking inadequate measures to protect the local politician's life.
In a Twitter post, the ex-candidate for Bogota mayor, Aurelio Suarez, claimed that the authorities were already aware of the threats to Daza's life.
According to a report released by National Federation of Council Members (Fenacon), 4,700 city council members in Colombia are under threat and more than half of them lack effective protection.

Kings, queens but mostly lesser royal hangers-on: the art-historical story of Kensington Palace
The great building as seen through the generations of its occupants
Aldo Scardinelli
William Kent , The King's Gallery © Historic Royal Palaces
Kensington Palace is not what it used to be. Once the primary town palace of the monarchs William and Mary (who got in Sir Christopher Wren make improvements), then of George I (who employed William Kent to redecorate—above, the King's Gallery, the first place to show paintings against red walls), the palace then went on a social slide down as accommodation for what might be considered lesser members of the royal family, hitting its lowest point with emotionally unstable Diana, Princess of Wales, and now the home of the media celebrities, the Cambridges and the Sussexes. Nevertheless, Kensington Palace, despite its awkward external appearance, has been the work place of many leading artists and craftsmen and the repository of numerous works of art. Tracy Borman records the history of the palace through it many phases in reign-by-reign chapters from its beginning as Nottingham House, bought by William and Mary, to the present day. A cast of characters is provided by way of family tree from James I to Prince Louis. The front inside cover gives a plan of the palace with its chronological expansions in three colours. It has a compass indication, but no reference to other sites, as if the palace were floating in space (which may metaphorically be true).

It's the time of year when so many people plan out what they will do with their tax refund money. Some want to buy a new television, others want to treat the kids to a day at Disney World, and others plan to avalanche a chunk of debt out of existence. Credit cards, car notes, and student loans are popular targets for a great big cash smash. However, a monster called the Treasury Department's Bureau of the Fiscal Service might be reaching out for your refund due to an offset for defaulted student loans.
The Treasury Offset Program is a way for the federal and state governments to collect on delinquent in defaulted debts that are owed to federal and state agencies who submit the debt to the Treasury Department for collection. The debts that they collect are tax debts, child support, overpayments, student loans, and others. The offset program does not collect on defaulted commercial balances such as for credit cards and payday loans. When you file your taxes and have a refund balance owed to you, the program will step in and reduce the refund by the amount owed.
First, couples who are married and filing jointly may be entitled to a partial or full refund of only one spouse originated the debt. The "Injured Spouse" allocation form is Form 8379. This is different from the "Innocent Spouse" relief form – Form 8857 – which should be used when only one spouse (or former spouse) should be held responsible for the debt. You should also have a look at your credit reports, and make sure that the debt is actually yours. Unfortunately, student loan fraud – where family members borrow without the student's knowledge or consent – is a thing that really exists. Getting loans discharged for student loan fraud and identity theft is one thing but getting a student loan tax offset hardship discharge is another.
Wait. There's a Student Loan Tax Offset Hardship Discharge?
There is, but it's not a fast process. It can take as long as nine months to stop a tax offset, so if you are just getting ready to file you might want to finish that up first. You should have a letter advising you of the offset, and you should check the information in that letter against your own records. If you feel your records are inaccurate or incomplete, request your loan information from the department of education. You can request a review your hearing for incorrect balances, loans that are not in default, the loans are not yours, the debt was discharged or paid, the loan is not enforceable, you're under an automatic stay from filing bankruptcy, or are in a loan rehab program. You are also entitled to a full discharge if you are totally and permanently disabled.
A student loan tax offset hardship discharge requires some extra effort and has a few conditions attached.
You must be in a voluntary repayment plan and actively making payments.
You may not have had a previous hardship refund.
You must have your treasury notice advising you that your refund payment has been applied to defaulted student loans.
In addition to the above, you must meet one or more of the following criteria.
Unemployment benefits have been exhausted. Provide a copy of the notice.
You are currently homeless and do not have a permanent address. You are required to provide a temporary address on the form.
Your utilities are being disconnected or turned off for nonpayment. This only covers water, power, gas, and sewer service. You will be required to provide proof of disconnection or turn off with a date within three months of the offset notice, and the total amount owed.
You are facing eviction or have been evicted. Documentation must include the amount owed, a date within three months of the offset date, official paperwork from the landlord, and any papers from the court system.
You are facing foreclosure or have been foreclosed upon. You must provide the amount owing, a date within three months of the offset, and paperwork from the court system.
In all cases, you must provide copies of documents – not the originals as they will not be returned. Remember, this is a sworn document and you are declaring under penalty of law that you are providing accurate information and true documents. Unless you like the idea of having an additional fine on top of your debt and possibly spending five years in jail, don't even consider doing this.
Understandably, finding yourself in the middle of this mess can be very upsetting. However, you can take it as a sign to get your financial house in order. Gather your banking information, information on all of your debts, records of all your expenses, and your credit reports. Sit down and review everything and then start to figure out a way forward. There are lots of legitimate resources open and available to you both on and off the Internet that can help you take control of your finances, sort out debt, and plan for the future. Maybe next year or the year after, you can use that tax refund cash bomb for that trip to Disneyland or new home entertainment center.

We are not only a bankruptcy firm but one that is experienced in handling debt in all its forms. You may not need to file for bankruptcy, but we can help you to consolidate and negotiate your debts until you can freely breathe without owing someone else some money.

5. Obtaining Venture Capital Funding
The VC process should be part of the business startup plan from day one to secure funding from venture capital sources. Venture capital funding is a good way for a new company to get a head start toward the next level of their business plan.
About How Venture Capital Works
Venture capital funding is on the rise in many areas, such as technology. The purpose of venture capital firms investing in private companies, in simple terms, has two objectives: equity or part ownership of the business.
There are several characteristics of a VC firm that make it stand out from other types of investors. Generally, the goal of a venture capital firm is to help a business expand rapidly. The expansion increases the odds of a positive financial return by selling the company using mergers or acquisitions or through an initial public offering.
About Venture Capital Investing
Venture capital firms only provide funding to a business if it is a compelling opportunity. This is determined by:
Scrutinizing and analyzing the strength of the management team.
The size and interest of the market.
If the company has a tech advantage.
The company's financial health.
The reason(s) customers prefer the company over competitors.
Funding by venture capital firms usually specializes in specific stages throughout the life of a business. This may be the expansion stage, the initial seed stage, or the later stages. Other firms, however, invest regardless of which stage a company is in. Some firms invest only in business-to-business or business-to-consumer while other firms invest in both.
Venture capital firms may invest funds they've raised through the years from individuals, pension funds, and endowments and invest them on behalf of others. In many instances, representatives of a venture capital firm will become a member of the board of the company they've invested in. This allows the investor to advise, support, and monitor the companies they've backed. It also enables the venture capital firm to have a voice in strategic planning to include support services, such as marketing, sales development, and employee recruitment.
Benefits of Using Venture Capital Firms
For a new company starting out, funding is necessary to drive the growth of the business. The funding that the company starts with is usually earmarked for marketing, sales, and initiatives. Instead of using initial revenue or worrying about generating revenue, a venture capital firm is an option. This helps the business:
Manage current and future operating expenses.
Operate at a loss while working to strengthen and expand the business.
Hire key employees.
Start to build long-term operations that are sustainable and profitable.
Create a platform to become profitable, go public, or be acquired by another company.
Venture Capital Firms and Money Making
Venture capital firms make money in two ways. The first is with a management fee. This may range from 2 percent to 2.5 percent of the capital funded. The second is with carried interest. When the firm ultimately exits the investment, it must repay the venture capital investors. Once this is completed, any profits made from the exit are divvied up between the venture capital managing team and the company's limited partners 80:20.
A venture capital firm is usually looking for three to five times the investment made in a company. Returns may be higher or even completely off the mark.
Obtaining Venture Capital Funding
There are several things to know about obtaining venture capital funding that can make the process a little easier. Keep these points in mind.
The firm usually focuses on specific criteria, such as certain industries.
The stage of development the company is in.
The location of the business.
Prior to initiating contact with a venture capital firm, find out what criteria they use to approve funding. Next, do not depend on an email to introduce yourself and your business. Venture capital firms receive many unsolicited emails. Most are ignored. The best approach is through an introduction by a colleague, lawyer, or another entrepreneur.
Once a meeting is scheduled, focus on the following.
A strong pitch.
Authenticity.
Keeping the presentation simple.
Emphasizing metrics or market demand.
Telling the product's story.
Discussing value and profitability.
Discussing your team.
Providing a brief conclusion.
If you need help with the VC process, you can post your legal need on UpCounsel's marketplace. UpCounsel accepts only the top 5 percent of lawyers to its site.

As humans, we are born with the need to create, and therefore, be creative. From an existential point of view, that's the only reason we are motivated to do anything at all in life. For this reason, having a home that facilitates our creative nature is important. With this in mind, how do we know for sure the house that we have been wanting truly caters to our most imaginative personal pursuits? Consider these important home factors that influence creativity to ensure you are making the right choice.
The first point past your main doorway is the first thing that you will see upon entering the house. As such, the area should look outstanding to your eyes. This helps reset your mood and establish a sense of awe and personal wonder as you indulge in homely activities, especially after a long day outside.
A good floor plan is extremely vital, as it ensures the fulfilment of other home factors that influence creativity. No beautiful home office, reading corner or painting studio could be installed and put to good use if you live in a house that has a nonsensical layout or irreparable architecture.
The most profound things you could do in your life involves making things with your hands, such as baking, rearranging furnitures and arranging flowers. While the best home lighting systems could illuminate them, nothing works and inspires quite like natural lighting. Big windows with good glass panes are thus important to ensure that sunlight goes in and refracts beautiful inside the house.
The thing about usable nooks is that you can always repurpose them from time to time. Taking up knitting? Enhance your skills with a well-placed armchair for comfort and focus. Taking up piano lessons? Ensure that the corner you have in mind could fit a large upright instrument, if not the grand version. Embarking on a spiritual journey? Reimagine the area with a console table solidifying a beautiful altar to house your most sacred possessions.
Without a doubt, an extra perimeter of space is always helpful to inspire a home office, library, dark room or creative studio. Since your most personal thoughts processes would occur in the designated room, it is important that it provides good floor paneling, big window, and ventilation system.


The Bachelor of Music degree with a major in vocal performance is a preparatory sequence for students interested in pursuing a life as a professional singer. Students are enrolled in private instruction in voice for one hour each week with outstanding artist faculty.
Students also have multiple opportunities for performance on and off campus. In addition to the Opera Workshop (link), which each semester presents a program of fully staged scenes or complete works (opera, operetta, and musical theater), students have multiple opportunities to perform as soloists with the university choral ensembles in performances of major works with orchestra and smaller instrumental ensembles.
Vocal performance majors also take classes relevant to their future career, including lyric diction, solo/vocal literature, and vocal pedagogy. Many students who finish their degree in this program will continue their study at the graduate level. Recent graduates from the vocal performance program have been admitted to some of the most prestigious graduate music programs in the country, such as Indiana University, The Peabody Conservatory of The Johns Hopkins University, University of Southern California, New England Conservatory, Westminster Choir College, University of Colorado – Boulder, Boston University, and more.
