Q: How to divide an array into three different parts? Okay hello everyone, im pretty new to java programming and im really having trouble with arrays. My program its supposed to read a .txt file that contains 3 numbers per line (its a problem about calories, the first number means breakfast, the second one lunch, and the third one dinner)
So I create an Array.list (calories) because it will read from the file with unknown length. So far, it worked now I put the values into an array, but I want to split this array in three single dimensional arrays. An array for the values of breakfast, another one for lunch and the last one for dinner.
My problem is I just cant figure out how to divide the length of the main array to assign the size to each of my other 3 different arrays. (I tried something like array.length / 3, but it gave me an error of IndexOutOfBounds) I know its pretty messy and everything :( but I barely get this, if you could give me at least an idea I will be very thankful !

A: size has to be an int value. when you get index out of bound exception simply add the size variable in the watch window to validate that you indeed have an integer value for it. Better Round off the size value to become an integer, since division by 3 will not give you integer value when it is not a multiple of 3. You can cast it to integer as well.
If your length value is multiple of 3, your code should work fine.

A: Archit hit the nail on the head. If you don't have an exact multiple of three, your index out of bounds actually occurs when you assign the values to the (breakfast/lunch/dinner) array. To avoid this, you could use a dynamically sized array called an array list (like you used for calories). And avoid the divide by 3 issue.
The code then becomes:
List<Integer> calories = new ArrayList<Integer>();

Scanner myfile = new Scanner(new FileReader("ARRAYLAB1.txt"));

while (myfile.hasNext()) {
    calories.add(myfile.nextInt());   // Read file content using a while loop
}

List<Integer> breakfast = new ArrayList<Integer>();
List<Integer> lunch = new ArrayList<Integer>();
List<Integer> dinner = new ArrayList<Integer>();

//the rest just assigns each value to their respective array
int counter = 1;
for (int i = 0; i < calories.size(i); i++) {
    if (counter == 1) {
        breakfast.add(calories.get(i));
        counter++;
        continue;
    }
    if (counter == 2) {
        lunch.add(calories.get(i));
        counter++;
        continue;
    }
    if (counter == 3) {
        dinner.add(calories.get(i));
        counter = 1;
        continue;
    }

Q: Maximum conjugacy class size in $S_n$ with fixed number of cycles Context: It is well known that given a permutation in $S_n$ with $a_i$ $i$-cycles (when written as a product of disjoint cycles), the size of the conjugacy class is given by
$$ \frac{n!}{\prod_{j=1}^n (j)^{a_j}(a_j !)}$$
It is also known that the conjugacy class containing permutations with exactly one fixed point and exactly one $n-1$ cycle (hence, $a_1 = 1$ and $a_{n-1} = 1$) has maximum conjugacy class size.
(see this post)
Question: Now let's fix the number of cycles, $m$ (this count includes the trivial ones). Then how would one go about finding the cycle type with the maximum conjugacy class size, among the ones with $m$ cycles?
Note that the case for $m=2$ is true for $n \geq 3$ by the assertion above in the context.
My "conjecture" is that any such cycle type needs to have $a_1 \geq \frac{m-1}{2}$. (i.e. at least about half of the cycles are trivial). And that about a fourth are 2 cycles and so on.
EDIT:
The conjecture as it stands is not true, as per one of the answers posted below. To have roughly 1/2 of the parts as 1's, the number of parts also needs to be roughly a 1/2 of $n$ or so, it seems.

A: Fix $m.$ For each $n$ consider the the question: among  all the conjugacy classes for permutations in $S_n$ with exactly $m+1$ cycles, which has the largest size?
I will write $\prod_{i \geq 1}i^{a_i}$ to describe a partition with $a_i$ cycles of length $i.$
Below is some data. It is the result of rather unsophisticated exhaustive calculation. It strongly suggests  the following unsurprising result:

There is a $k=k(m)$  integers $a_1 \geq a_2 \geq \cdots \geq a_k=1$ and $t=t(m)=\sum_1^ka_kk$ such that, for $n$ large enough relative to $m,$ the unique maximum occurs for type $1^{a_1}2^{a_2}\cdots k^{a_k}(n-t)$

later

Based on the calculations one might speculate  further that the $a_i$ decrease until they are $1$ (perhaps no later than $\sqrt{k}$ or some such  $j \ll k$)

The conjecture from the question is that $a_1$ is about $\frac{m}2$, $a_2$ is about $\frac{m}4$ and so on. That is a bit vague. Does it mean that  $a_j$ is about $\frac{m}{2^j}$ (perhaps for $1 \leq j \ll k?.$ An now deleted answer speculated that $a_1=2a_2=3a_3=\cdots=ja_j$ again perhaps for $1 \leq j \ll k.$
The present calculations are not sufficient to test if either of these is likely.

*

*For $m=1$ the maximum occurs for $1\ (n-1)$

*For $m=2$ and $n \gt 5$ the maximum occurs for $1\ 2\ (n-3)$

*For $m=3$ and $n \gt 10$ the maximum occurs for $1^2\ 2\ (n-4)$

*For $m=4$ and $n \gt 10$ the maximum occurs for $1^2\ 2\ \ 3 (n-7)$

*For $m=5$ and $n \gt 20$ the maximum occurs for $1^3\ 2\ 3\ (n-8)$

*For $m=6$ and $n \gt 17$ the maximum occurs for $1^3\ 2\ 3\ 4\ (n-12)$ except that

*

*for $n=22$ there is a tie between  $1^3\ 2\ 3\ 4\ (10)$ and $1^2\ 2\ 3\ 4\ 5\ 6$

*For $m=7$ and $n \gt 29$ the maximum occurs for $1^3\ 2^2\ 3\ 4\ (n-14)$
This might allow a more refined conjecture. Certainly data for larger $m$ would be suggestive. That would justify taking the time to do design a more intelligent search.
Here are more detailed results on $m=7$ to show exactly what I know for sure:
For $30 \leq n \leq 60$ the maximum occurs only for $1^3\ 2^2\ 3\ 4\ (n-14).$ Presumably the same is true for all $30 \leq n.$ It is also true for $n=19,20,21,22. $
the other cases are:

*

*$1^8$

*$1^72$

*$1^62^2$

*$1^62\,3$

*$1^52^23$

*$1^42^33$

*$1^5\,2\,3\,4$

*$1^42^23\,4$

*$1^42^23\,5$

*For $n=17$ a tie between $1^42^23\,6$ and $1^32^23^24$

*$1^4\,2\,3\,4\,5$ for $n=18.$

*$1^32\,3\,4\,5\,(n-17)$ for $23 \leq n \leq 28$

*for $n=29$ a tie between $1^3\,2\,3\,4\,5\,12$ and $1^32^23\,4\,15$

A: Here is a different viewpoint: the question is equivalent to asking for a permutation $\sigma$ whose disjoint cycle structure contains exactly $m$ cycles, and with
$|C_{S_{n}}(\sigma)|$ as small as possible subject to that.
Note that if $\sigma$ has $a_{j}$ cycles of length $j$ for each $j$ in that decomposition, then $|C_{S_{n}}(\sigma)| = \prod_{j} j^{a_{j}} a_{j}!,$ (which is just the denominator in the expression given in the question for the size of the conjugacy class). Note that this is clearly at least as large as $ \prod_{ \{j : a_{j} >0\}} j$, and note on the other hand that equality holds if all cycle sizes are distinct.
From now on I consider the case where there is a partition of $n$ into $m$ parts of distinct sizes (which is equivalent to requiring that $n \geq \frac{m(m+1)}{2}).$ I want to show first that there is a unique (up to conjugacy) choice of $\sigma$ which minimizes $|C_{S_{n}}(\sigma)|$ subject to the condition that $\sigma$ has $m$ cycles of pairwise distinct sizes.
Given such a permutation $\sigma,$ choose $j = j(\sigma)$ maximal subject to the fact that the $r$-th shortest cycle of $\sigma$ has size $r$ whenever $r \leq j$ - the possibility that $j =0$ is allowed, and occurs precisely when the shortest cycle of $\sigma$ has size greater than one. Note that the $j+1$-st shortest cycle of $\sigma$ (if there is one) has size at least $j+2$ by the maximality of $j$.
If $\sigma$ has more than $j+1$ disjoint cycles, then we may produce a permutation $\tau$ with $m$ disjoint cycles of pairwise distinct lengths and with $|C_{S_{n}}(\tau)| < |C_{S_{n}}(\sigma)|.$ We simply shorten the $j+1$-st shortest cycle of $\sigma$ by one, and lengthen the longest cycle of $\sigma$ by one. The resulting permutation $\tau$ still has all its $m$ disjoint cycles of pairwise distinct lengths, but we see easily that if $a$ is the length of the $j+1$-st shortest cycle of $\sigma$ and $b > a $ is the length of the longest cycle of $\sigma,$ then $ab|C_{S_{n}}(\tau)|=  (b+1)(a-1)|C_{S_{n}}(\sigma)|$, so the claim follows as $(b+1)(a-1) < ab.$
Hence we can "improve" our choice of $\sigma$ if $\sigma$ has more than one cycle of length greater than $j+1,$ so the unique minimizing choice of $\sigma$ has its $r$-th cycle of length $r$ for $r \leq j$ and only one cycle of length greater than $j+1$. This forces $j = m-1$ or $j =m.$
Hence if $n \geq \frac{m(m+1)}{2},$ the unique choice of $\sigma$ with $m$ disjoint cycles of pairwise distinct lengths which minimizes $|C_{S_{n}}(\sigma)|$ has its $r$-th cycle of length $r$ for $1 \leq r \leq m-1$ and one cycle of length $n - \frac{m(m-1)}{2}.$  Note that the size of the corresponding conjugacy class is $\frac{n!}{(n-\frac{m(m-1)}{2})(m-1)!}$.
While this does not directly answer the question, it does perhaps give some insight and provides large conjugacy classes of elements with $m$ disjoint cycles.
Later edit: As indicated in the last sentence, and suggested also by comments of Gerhard Paseman, this is not at all the end of the story if we allow repeated cycle lengths.
For example, if $\sigma$ has cycle type $12 \ldots (m-2)(m-1)d$ where d > m, we can shorten (m-2) cycles of $\sigma$ by one each, and lengthen the longest cycle by m-2 to obtain $\tau$ of cycle type $112 \ldots (m-2)(d+m-2)$.
Then $(m-1)d|C_{S_{n}}(\tau)| = 2(d+m-2)|C_{S_{n}}(\sigma)|$ which yields  $|C_{S_{n}}(\tau)| < |C_{S_{n}}(\sigma)|$ as long as $m>3.$ Then $\tau$ is the product of $m$ disjoint cycles, but $\tau$ has a larger conjugacy class than $\sigma$. This suggests other continuations, and seems to point towards some of the empirically found maxima found by Aaron in his answer, at least when $n$ is large enough compared to $m.$

A: Let's  consider having c cycles of size k, d > c cycles of size k+1, and some number of largest cycles of size p >k+1. Let's shift an element out of d-c of the k+1 cycles, and put them on one p cycle. Just considering cycle lengths, in the product this represents a differential of  1 + (d-c)/p against  (1+1/k)^(d-c). If we started with b many p cycles, we now have b-1, and so the product is reduced by an additional factor of b. So "shifting the excess" to a large enough cycle results in a reduction in denominator. Thus almost any cycle that optimizes the product will have more smaller cycles than larger cycles, with all lengths between 1 and l represented, followed by a solitary cycle of length p or more possibly larger than l+1.
(In case we have p=k+1, a similar argument with d-c>1 also works, as does the case when there is more than one cycle of maximal length. So, with the exception of a gap between l and p, we have cycles represented in decreasing number as length grows.)
So with care, the above can be turned into a proof of Aaron's unsurprising result.  Now let us see if we can predict how  big is l, the length of the  largest (but one) cycle .
Suppose the two largest cycle lengths are l and p,  with l less than p, and assume they occur uniquely. We split the l cycle into a 1 cycle and increment the p cycle by l-1. If we started with d many 1 cycles, we win (by shrinking the denominator) if (d+1)(p+l-1) is less than or equal to pl. If we have c many cycles of length l, replace pl by cpl in the previous inequality. So we win for sure if (d+1) is less than or equal to cl/2.
If we are giving too much attention to one cycles, we can consider having c many k cycles and increasing their count by 1.  The inequality now becomes a win if (c+1)k(p+l-k) is at most lp. In particular, if kc is at most l/2, consider shortening the l cycle to k and adding the excess up.  If you lose, it won't be by much.
By considering a number of moves of this type, the search space for a cycle that optimizes the associated product should be readily obtained, even by hand, for large enough n.
Update 2019.06.11:
Here is an attempt at justifying an approximation to the conjecture made in the post.  While not strictly following the conjecture, we show that a good attempt at an optimum starts with n large enough, about m/2 fixed points, about m/4 cycles of length 2, and so on.  I do not claim the result is an absolute optimum. I do suggest that the optimum is not far from this choice for n about 2m. For larger n there is more room to play.
I follow the original post, assume n is at least 2m, and look at the permutation of m cycles with one cycle of length n-m+1. The denominator of (n-m+1)((m-1!)) is easily calculated; what changes in cycle structure can make it smaller?
To start, we borrow from the large cycle to make at least (m-1)/2 cycles of length 2, giving possibly more cycles of length 2 than of length 1. (Don't worry, we will recycle some of these 2-cycles. Hah, I'm so funny.) Indeed, when we borrow about (m-1)/2 elements from the large cycle and convert that many 1-cycles to 2-cycles, we replace some terms in the denominator ((m-1)(m-2)(m-3)...) by terms that resemble (m-1)(m-3)(m-5)... (Or possibly (m)(m-2)(m-4)...), and n-m+1 gets replaced by something like n-3(m-1)/2.  I am not bothering to use integer arithmetic, as the messy justification that the denominator is made smaller I leave to you. In any case, I assert we can reduce the denominator by replacing half or more of the 1-cycles by 2-cycles, especially when m is at least 6.
Now we can repeat this: replace slightly more than half the 2-cycles with 3-cycles, borrowing about m/4 from the large cycle. We get another reduction, but with a factor of about (3/2)^(m/4) involved as opposed to (2/1)^(m/2). We can iterate this up to log m times about, taking half or more k cycles and making (k+1) cycles from them. With care we borrow about m elements from the large cycle, and make cycle lengths up to log m.
Do we stop there? Not if n is big enough. We can now use a 1-cycle (we have about m/2 of them) and borrow from the large cycle to create a single cycle of length slightly larger than log m. We can repeat this as long as the cycle created has length less than the number of remaining 1-cycles. Similarly, we can reuse a few of the m/4 2-cycles this way.
We do not get quite up to cycles of length sqrt(m) this way because of the repetitions of small cycles, but for large n we have made a series of reductions in the denominator. Using this as a threshold, one can try perturbing this structure slightly to improve the denominator, without having to search the whole space.
End Update 2019.06.11.
Gerhard "Now Show Me Your Moves" Paseman, 2019.06.10.

A: Really guys, local optimization is the way to go, or at least to start. By analyzing those cycle patterns which are resistant to being optimized, you can get a lot of information, and reduce the search space dramatically. I said this in comments and another post; this post shows it in action using the move c d goes to c-1,d+1, and occasional variations on this move. Here c and d are integers representing cycle lengths with c at most d. Often, but not always, it will be useful to choose d to be the maximal length present in a given cycle structure.
Let's start with r many cycles of length d, where r is greater than one.  If d is 1, we can't do the move. If d is greater than one, the denominator is affected by a) replacing d^2 by (d^2-1), b) reducing a factorial term by r(r-1), and c) increasing two other factorial terms representing cycle counts for lengths d+1 and d-1, which we will call an increase by a factor of st.
Before we break it down to cases, we see that this move says something about a cycle structure: if this move doesn't optimize it, then either it has not many cycles of length greater than 1, or it does, but for every cycle length d greater than 1 which has two or more cycles, there is a relationship almost harmonic in nature, represented by the exponents (a_j) given by the relationship $st\geq r(r-1)$. In particular, for cycle lengths j-1,j, and j+1, if the counts for j-1 and j+1 are both at least two less than the count for j, this move optimizes (replaces this configuration with another with smaller denominator). More particularly, any configuration with $ r\gt 1$  cycles of length $j \gt 1$ and at most one cycle having a length from { j+1,j -1} is nonoptimal (0,2,1 and 1,2,0 and similar can't appear as consecutive subsequences can't appear in an optimal cycle structure).
For the case of replacing c d by c-1, d+1,  where there are $r \gt 0$ many cycles of maximal length $d \gt c \gt 1$, $s$ many cycles of length c, and $t-1$ many cycles of length c-1 before replacement, we get a) cd replaced by cd + c-d-1, b) a reduction by r of one factorial term, and c) a change of t/s in the terms induced by moving the cycle of length $c$. This is a reduction whenever $t \leq rs$.
From these two kinds of moves we see that if there are fewer cycles of length $j$ than of length $j+1$, then either $j+1$ is d , the maximal cycle length, and there is one such cycle of that length, or else we have a move to optimize this configuration. We also have the counts for any three successive  lengths present in the structure s-1,r, and t-1 the relation $r(r-1) \leq st$, otherwise we have an optimizing move to make. In particular, s-r cannot be smaller than r-t-1.  Also, if there is a gap (a single cycle of maximal length d and none of length d-1), then the move c d to c+1,.d-1 optimizes if the exponents on c and c+1 differ enough (if s/t+1 is greater than (cd +d-c-1)/cd), so one gets a tighter relationship on the exponents with a gap present.  If the gap is large enough, and s is the smallest cycle not present, then 1^s d can be replaced by 1^(s-1)s(d-s+1), which gives more bounds on the exponents.
Now suppose we have a cycle structure with k many distinct cycle lengths. We assume the structure has more than 1 cycle.
If  k is 1, then the cycle lengths must all be 1, otherwise the structure is non optimal. This is the case m=n in the notation of the problem with cycle structure 1^n.
If k is two, then one of the lengths must be 1, otherwise we have a nontrivial configuration. If the other length is greater than 2, there can be only one cycle of that length, and by reversing the move c-1,d+1 to c,d, we have a nonoptimal structure if  there are at least three 1-cycles. So one potentially optimal structure with only two lengths is 11(n-2): this works when n is 4 or 5. For  larger n this is beaten by the structure with three lengths 12(n-3).
If k is two and the longest cycle present is length 2, this is optimal unless there are r 2-cycles and s-1 1-cycles and r(r-1) is at least 3s/4, in which case turning two of the 2-cycles into a 1-cycle and a three cycle gives a possibly more optimal structure. So for two cycle lengths, we either have 1(n-1), 113, or 1^(s-1)2^r with 4r(r-1) at most 3s. Indeed, trying to improve upon this configuration for n=2r+s-1 by replacing 2-cycles by a j cycle and j 1-cycles gives a less optimal configuration since s+i is greater than 2(r-i).
For k = 3, we must have the lengths be 1,2, and d, otherwise we have a nonoptimal structure.
Suppose d is greater than 4. We can replace 2,d by 3,d-1 and if there are two or more 2-cycles, this is an optimizing move.if there is only one 2-cycle, then we can do 1,d to 2,d-1 , and this is an optimizing move if there are 4 or more 1-cycles. So for d 5 or greater, the only possible optimal cycle structure with three cycle lengths are 1112d and 112d and 12d.  For large d, 1112d is less optimal than 1123(d-2).
If d is 4 and there are 3 or more 2-cycles or 5 or more 1-cycles, we can do a c 4 to c+1 3 optimizing move. Otherwise 1^s2^r4 is a potential optimum for s at most 4 and r at most 2.
Finally assume d is 3, and the structure to study is 1^s2^r3^t. Assume r and t large enough when needed. The moves to investigate are 3 3 to 2 4, 2 3 to 1 4, and 2 2 to 1 3 and the reverse move. These involve comparing  9t(t-1) to 8(r+1), 6rt to 4(s+1), and 4r(r-1) to 3(s+1)(t+1). One needs to run the calculations for a specific triple s,r,t, but if t is roughly bigger than square root of r, then the structure is nonoptimal, and if r is bigger than a fractional power  ( compute it, but use 3/5 for an initial guess) of s, the structure is non optimal.
As pointed out before, one expects a decrease in exponents of a harmonic type (to counter moves like j j to j-1 j+1) as cycle length increases and with a largest cycle there can be only one gap in the list of cycle lengths, and if there is a gap then there is one largest cycle. When k gets larger, if there is a gap of length two or greater between second largest and largest cycle lengths, sometimes a move from c d to c+1 to d-1 can optimize, so usually the second largest cycle length has exponent one in an optimal structure, and one can say more about the sequence of exponents for smaller cycle lengths.

One of the stately rooms in this mansion on 82nd and 5th contains the greatest clutch of Renaissance European Art in all of America. There with an audio guide you can sit on an elegant antique chair and look across at El Greco's Saint Jerome. This saint, a fourth century Roman scholar, was the author of the Vulgate Bible, a task taking 30 years. He fled to the desert and lived the life of an aesthete.
This portrait of a visionary in a Cardinal's robe (although such a gown didn't exist at the time), grappling with God's message — that is his living breathing purpose. The cranberry robe mirrors a fervent heart. He also looks a touch deranged. Deranged or not, he does look focussed, really focussed — on another world.
He is between two of Holbein's masterpieces. One is Sir Thomas More, the Lord Chancellor in Henry VIII's time, who had his head chopped off for opposing the Act of Supremacy making Henry head of the church replacing the Roman Catholic Church.
The second is Cromwell, More's executioner. The portraits are quite different.
More with a stubble of four days' growth, fatigued eyes alert, an educated firm shrewdness in the glint. Paul Scofield, the noted British actor, caught the essence of More in the movie, A Man for All Seasons, but perhaps a bit mellower than this portrait.
The chain, with the five gold links represents souens me souviens, "think of me often". And also he has a honker of a nose.
Thomas More (1478-1535) humanist, scholar, author and statesman was Henry VIII's diplomatic envoy. He succeeded Cardinal Wolsey in 1529 as Lord Chancellor. He resigned three years later over Henry's divorce from Catherine of Aragon. He later refused to subscribe to the Act of Supremacy making the King head of the Church of England. This led to his conviction and beheading under Cromwell's planning and plotting.
Cromwell, adjacent to More with the El Greco St. Jerome in the middle is much less precise a figure, almost pasty faced, featureless.
Gimpel the art dealer thought this painting was "entirely retouched". Still Cromwell is a picture of concentrated squint. The pointed moon of his face represents a sort of shrewd bland menace with a secret police look. He ruthlessly pursued the state control of religion and closing of the monasteries, much of the gold and lands of which he pocketed for his son. He trumped up the adultery charge against Anne Boleyn. Edward Seaton 'confessed' to adultery after a little session on the rack. Cromwell met the chop himself five years after the portrait. Henry VIII was a 'demanding' employer. More and Cromwell tell you it was a tough church.
Across the room are two Titians and one Giovanni Bellini.
The Portrait of a Young Man (1540) by Titian has no name. A seductive anonymous young courtier, beautiful even, with a gentle gloved hand on his sword, soft fur with coloured flecks and the odd red hat that offsets the cream grey and black colours. He is in a soft wolverine fur, so inviting, so soft that the feel of it springs forth. Last a tender white neck. One of the Titian books calls this an atmosphere of veiled melancholy. I don't see it at all. I see an indulgent loitering chaser of whatever, men, women, whatever. The portrait captures the shallow brightness of the sitter.
On the other side Titian painted Pietro Aretino, composer of 'lascivious' verse, chronicler, gossip, blackmailer of his time. He was author of Lives of Painters. Here he is in a heavy rich gold rust brown robe, gold in the sleeves. The smooth variations of brown is a marvel. Words can't capture it, the brown although a dross colour actually trumps the large gold chain set across his massive chest. A powerful squat neck, all in contrast to the opposite youth. Here, a watchful power, shrewd eyes of perception and all inquisitive.
In the middle the painting by Giovanni Belllini (1480) considered to be the greatest Renaissance painting in America. St. Francis of Assissi receiving the stigmata. St. Francis received the stigmata, the wounds of Christ's crucifixion. A radiant light floods the canvas emphasizing all the details of rocks, plants, buildings, patterned and sculpted. One revels in the marble valley of nature. The light positions a city on the hill — a fortress.
Giovanni Bellini's St. Francis is almost Flemish in its realism. Francis has retreated to a cave to commune with nature. He unites old and new testament themes to associate Francis with Moses and Christ. The tree symbolizes the burning bush, the stream the miraculous spring struck forth by Moses, the grapevine and the stigmata Christ's sacrifice, the crane and donkey; the monastic virtue of patience. The golden light suffusing it all, is Venice.
The very air in this serene pool of painting is there to touch. It is not the air of a hot summer day, it is air caught in a bell jar, palpable. The lined rock formations mirror the substance of St. Francis' belief — all solid. The distant town is a mini San Gimignano (the town of towers close to Florence), wealthy, walled, a Medieval gated community. It stands as a backdrop to St. Francis in lovely intercourse with God.
It is a painting that demands an attentive audience. The ribbed variations of the rock behind and the actual small village behind in the translucent atmosphere, is as clear as a binocular vision.
This was not a man who painted slaughter of the innocents, or last judgments. A simple, gentle, idealistic style but he opened the Pandora's box for Titian and what greater accolade could there be?
In the grand hall there is Rembrandt's flamboyant self-portrait which Schama describes and is in my series of Rembrandt's self-portraits.
Rembrandt was only 52 when he did this, large and matronly in a gold hassock (even though he was a small man). This may be his greatest self-portrait. The eyes speak to the viewer. My wife says "sad and questioning". I see "you son of a bitch — don't yap at my heels — with one stroke of my brush I can and have trumped you all — I've done what no one has even dreamt of — give me a break!"
What does Simon Schama say in his huge book Rembrandt's Eyes?
Rembrandt just declared bankrupt, usually they slink away embarrassed:
"So Rembrandt naturally paints himself in 1658, at the nadir of his fortunes, godlike, enthroned, mantled in lustrous gold, staring down presumptuous mortals, his lips pursed, a suggestion of lordly amusement playing about his eyes."
At this time Hazlitt suggests Rembrandt was reinventing art and becoming the 'legislator' of art.
Schama suggests from this time on Rembrandt went so far as to "make paint itself the subject matter of the paintings cut free from the obligation to describe form literally (as all of his contemporaries insisted it should). Rembrandt's paint handling went off to lead a life of its own; an amazing vagabond life of daubing, dragging, twisting, dabbing, drizzling, coating, sloshing wet into wet, kneading, scraping, building into monumental constructions of pigment that had the mass and worked density of sculpture, yet which shone with emotive illumination".
Also, down the hall midst its treasures, a John Constable (1819), The White Horse, as fresh and breezy as a post-sprinkle England spring day, all light, white paint, near cloud and the envy of the French and a guide book for Delacroix. White paint tipping the river water in slabs, which caused criticism, known as Constable's snow. Now it is viewed as a genius of impressionistic talent and imaginative flair. You are there at the River Stour, for a moment this is not a picture — it is a clear memory of you actually being there, cool gurgling water with the creak of the ferry barge.
Van Dyck at only 20 years of age does a portrait of Frans Snyders, the animal and flower painter. Also his wife. They are wealthy and the sitting is midst grey opulence and girded in evocative black. As a product of a 20 year old, it is staggering. His genius never ceases to amaze. His black with flutters of grey open up a whole new vista of colour possibilities. Who would ever think black to be a varied emotive subtle colour? It is in Van Dyck's hands. Snyders has an appraising eye for the vainness — both searching and a touch dismissive.
with the three men bashing iron — must have appealed to Frick, the Pittsburgh baron of steel. The co-ordinated symphony of labour is all power and concentration, penetrating the slap dash painted clothing. It is a perfect vision of hard, hard labour, back breaking and serious.
Rembrandt's Polish Rider (weak in the horse's legs, rider's hands — by an assistant) is a dream. The doublet and saddle fittings, the arrows, the bottom of the riding boot — all touches of buttery genius. (This has been found by the Rembrandt Research Project to be a work of Rembrandt's students.)
March 3, 1919 at Henry Frick's
… Another magnificent Rembrandt is The Polish Cavalier (1653). If his face were not that of a young man, I would swear that it is the Wandering Jew who goes there, in that landscape in which all uncertainties are summed up, in which home and hearth move farther away at each step, where the air is one immense doubt. His horse is at once pitiful and heroic, running for all eternity, with its limbs disjointed in that jerky movement, adapting to all terrains. … [René Gimpel, Diary of an Art Dealer, Universe Books, NY, 1987, p. 96]
Frick was once told by Duveen that in his obituary his art would outstrip his own business history. He was a partner with Carnegie and had control over Pittsburgh Steel Mills (1892). They were living hells, all caldron of heat and clanging. Frick didn't tolerate unions, called opponents communists. One 'strike' was met with company violence. A battle took place at Homestead, Pennsylvania with National Guardsmen which resulted in some deaths. Frick himself shot. Frick never flinched, revelled in his decision-making which resulted in death. Ever the autocrat, not a scintilla of diplomacy. During the violence he said "I will fight this thing to the bitter end. I will never recognize the union, never, never!"
He was a careful buyer and Gimpel noted his eyes, "But his cold eyes, grasping and hard under their genial look, remain a clear, beautiful blue." [Gimpel, p. 96, March 13, 1919]
Joe Duveen delivered to Frick a Van Dyck — a tall portrait of the two nephews of Charles I of England — very English, very, very foppish. They were the brothers Stuart. Tall, elegant, striking but a touch surreal. Mrs. Frick urged him not to buy it because she "couldn't bear to have those Jewish noses before my eyes." [Gimpel, p. 38, June 20, 1918]
Years later I read Chambers Encyclopaedia, as I remember it on Frick 83 lines, 43 were about his collection, Rembrandt, Titian, Vermeer and the rest marched to the front of his obituary and his immense shadow as a godfather of American industry slipped below Bellini.
The Frick is special because it is a single floored Roman sort of mansion at 5th and 81st in New York. It is free, but you should donate. In the middle a courtyard with tinkling water and some roof light. On the side Corols and a Vermeer. No matter which room you slip into, and it is a feeling of slipping with ease into a room there are but a few people. A headset educates you about the works — in the quiet before you, you sit in a chair across from the huge El Greco flanked by two Holbein, Sir Thomas Moore and Sir Thomas Cromwell. You cross, sit under El Greco's (Biblical scholar — St. Jerome) and there is Bellini in the clearest sparkle, next to Titian's Young Courtier with the red hat and speckled fur wrap on shoulder, there for the touch.
All this in America. Step out and there is a corridor of Rembrandt, Van Dyck, Constable, Goya, maybe with 10 people viewing at most.
All this the product of a bit of a fluffery magic salesman Duveen and a mean steel magnate. Go figure.

By Orange County Register
April 8, 2013 at 11:40 p.m.
Class began at dusk in a dimly lit studio facing Pacific Coast Highway as the yoga teacher appeared, adjusting the shawl draped around his shoulders, and took his seat on a quilted meditation pillow in front of a window that faced the ocean.
Because the sun was setting behind him, the teacher appeared in silhouette. I couldn't see his face. I could only hear his voice as he guided us through the 90-minute Kundalini yoga class – a series of meditations, chanting, vigorous breathing exercises and asanas (or postures).
"I want you to know that this is a safe place," the teacher, Cole "Raahi" Jacobs, told us midway through class. "You can feel whatever you need to feel. You are safe here."
I did. I was. And it was an answer to prayer.
At the beginning of the year, I embarked on a two-month sabbatical to recover from 2012 – a year fraught with loss and difficulties, culminating in the death of my beloved father a few days before Thanksgiving.
I needed to recharge and resolved to rest, spend time with the people I love most, and find some kind of physical practice that would be restorative.
Working out is not something that comes naturally to me – in fact, I hate it – but I have practiced yoga sporadically since my college days and thought that, during this time of intentional renewal, yoga might be my wheelhouse.
While you can't swing a beach towel without hitting a yoga studio in Laguna Beach (my hometown), I had not-so-great experiences in the crowded commercial studios I'd visited where the main goal of the ancient Indian practice seemed to be attaining the perfect "yoga butt," rather than anything approximating enlightenment.
So, I prayed. I asked God to send me a teacher and a place to practice that would be right for me at this time in my life.
Happily, I learned that a new yoga studio had opened in town called Ritual Yoga Arts, where a more traditional style of yoga is taught and practiced with an eye toward spiritual, holistic health, rather than tight buns.
The first week in January, I grabbed my mat and headed to Ritual's Thursday night Kundalini yoga – a discipline often called the "yoga of awareness" because of its emphasis on cultivating compassion and consciousness in relationship with God and others. It's a physically demanding practice, but in a much different way than, say, "power yoga" might be.
When class was over, I felt sweaty, tired and fantastic. It was just what I needed, and Jacobs' calm, egoless yet confident demeanor felt like a perfect fit. I'd found my oasis.
A few days later, standing in the hallway after class talking about Jacobs and what a wonderful teacher he is, one of the other students said something that absolutely shocked me: "Can you believe he's only 19?"
No way, I thought. Jacobs has a baby face, but with his depth of knowledge and grounded, laid-back manner, I figured him to be in his early 30s – not young enough to be my son.
Sure enough, Jacobs, who was born in Newport Beach on Feb. 21, 1993, and raised largely in Mission Viejo, is something of a yoga prodigy. In fact, he is believed to be one of the youngest yoga instructors teaching in California and may be the youngest Kundalini teacher in the nation.
Jacobs took his first yoga class – a workshop called "Yoga for Stiff Guys," he recalled – at his mother's behest after he blew out his ACL when he was 16.
The summer after his 2011 graduation from Tesoro High School in Ladera Ranch, where he had played football and lacrosse before his knee injury, he taught 22 yoga classes a week at a studio in San Juan Capistrano.
He completed formal teacher training and went on to teach at various power yoga studios around Orange County until last fall, when he decided he wanted to go to the source to expand his practice and understanding of yoga as an instructor.
In late October, Jacobs left for the Anand Prakash Ashram in the foothills of the Himalayas in Rishikesh, India. There, he completed 500 hours of teacher training with Yogrishi Vishvketu, the Indian-born guru and founder (with his Canadian wife, Chetna Panwar) of the international World Conscious Yoga Family.
By the time Jacobs returned from India in December, he'd decided he wanted to teach at a studio where the yoga was more traditional and spiritually authentic. He began teaching at Ritual a few weeks later.
"If someone is teaching a power class and they're not talking about anything historical or spiritual, that's not yoga, that's an aerobics class. And there's nothing wrong with that. We just need to be honest about what we're doing," Jacobs said.
At the ashram, Jacobs was the youngest student in his training class, comprising 34 students (30 women and four men) largely from Canada, the U.S. and Japan, and one of the youngest men Vishvketu has ever trained.
Vishvketu calls Jacobs "exceptional."
"He was very disciplined and concentrated and very hardworking, especially for his age," the guru told me by phone from London, where he was in transit from the Indian ashram back to his home in Canada. "He is just a beautiful person, and he has a gift. It's a natural talent. In the West, he is unusual."
Even more unusual, Vishvketu says, was how quickly and deeply Jacobs took to the highly spiritualized, traditional form of Kundalini yoga. "Classical Kundalini isn't just something that you get one class in and then you teach," he said.
Jacobs, whom the guru bestowed with the spiritual name "Raahi" (a Hindi word that means "the one you meet along the way to enlightenment"), "was connected in a special way, and it was very powerful," Vishvketu said. "He is a wonderful soul, very inspiring."
Indeed he is. Jacobs is among those rare few, in my experience, who have been blessed with a true pastoral gift. He has an uncanny ability to see and meet the needs of his students (whom he calls "yoga kin") and whatever it is we bring with us into the studio.
"Whatever I feel when I'm teaching it's usually in the moment," Jacobs says, sitting outside Laguna's Taco Loco one recent sunny afternoon. "I never have words that are planned for class. I usually just say what's in the moment and what I feel one person would need in that moment."
Jacobs also is one of the most honest – brutally so sometimes, he'll be the first to admit – people of any age I've ever met.
"I feel things deeply, whatever it is, whether it's someone else's pain," he says. "I'm predictably empathetic. And yet sometimes I can put a big wall up and be quite cold. I have a very soft heart – but I refer to myself as like a peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwich with burnt toast."
Raised as a Roman Catholic until his early teens, Jacobs says he still "believes in Christ" but now answers "yoga practitioner" when I ask him how he'd define himself spiritually.
"I'm a rishi, a 'seeker,'" he says. "I have my service – I have what I do during the day for other people – and that's really my main focus in life, to do that service, to carry out that service. I believe that what I do is what I should be doing. That's my connection to God. That's my offering to the planet, to the cosmos."
In a sense, Jacobs is a conduit of grace. For his yoga kin. For me.
One way of understanding the concept of grace is that we humans can be grace for each other by "holding space" for someone until he or she is ready to move into it.
"Seamlessness in accompanying God or the divine," is how Jacobs says he defines grace. "Gracefulness is seamless. It's not prerendered or thought out. It's spontaneous. You are aware enough to see and feel the divine in whatever environment you're in."
There is a maxim often attributed to the Buddha that says, "When the student is ready, the teacher will appear."
And so I offer a deep bow and prayer of gratitude for having met mine.

Drop Kicker » Because Barnum's Law was meant to be broken.
It's been over a year since we've had a new Dropkicker review. This is partially due to a number of other projects that have taken precedence, but it's also due to the relative lack of high-profile projects with questionable degrees of polish. Recently, I came across an opportunity to actually purchase one of the products I've reviewed, so I thought I would "come out of retirement" to present a special teardown edition of Dropkicker. Our first.
Since man first learned to harness and use the electron, there has been a constant struggle to find new and more efficient ways to generate electric power. The Greeks rubbed animal hides against amber (as they called it ἤλεκτρον or ēlektron) while much later, European scientists devised the electrostatic generator and Leyden jar. While these discoveries and technologies are elegant exploitations of the laws of physics (and great for entry-level electrical science courses), they were ultimately too inefficient to provide any real benefit to society.
As a result, we typically generate electricity by spinning the wheel of an electromagnetic generator whether it be by burning coal, damming a river, or digging a very deep hole in the ground. We have also made major efficiency gains in our use of this power. LED bulbs use less power than incandescents, and today's smartphones can perform calculations millions of times faster than yesterday's vacuum tubes using a fraction of the energy.
Some recent efforts have tried to combine these two themes by taking what was once a wasteful byproduct and turning it into an energy source making an entire process more efficient. Hybrid and electric vehicles use regenerative braking where a car's kinetic energy is captured and converted back into electric energy during stops, and in some gasoline cars, a turbocharger will use exhaust to compress the air going to the engine causing it to deliver more power more efficiently.
There are always a trade-offs though. The methods used to capture waste energy are usually highly inefficient, so you need to seek out a large source of waste to make it worthwhile. Sure, your breathing could be used to spin a turbine and a bodybuilder could be hooked to a generator instead of a weight machine, but the amount of energy created these ways compared to the cost and complexity associated with capturing that energy make them ultimately useless.
So let's talk about Ampy and Juse.
If you log into Indiegogo today, you might notice a small survey pop up in the bottom left corner of your browser window.
With campaigns as troubled as Ritot, Smarty Ring, and TellSpec, one wonders if Indiegogo is starting to feel like it's garnered a reputation as a hotbed for scams. Features like Flex Funding and the new Forever Funding show that they are doing everything they can to facilitate money changing hands which sets them apart from their competitors who are at least occasionally stepping in when problems arise. Seems like the place to go if you want to run an additional fundraiser for no reason or copy another campaign entirely.
Let's hope the results of this survey bring about some changes in Indiegogo policy.
In a backers only update this week, the team at Carbon released drawings showing some more details on their proposed solar panel design. As you may recall, the team's solar powered wristwatch had a solar panel barely large enough, at its best, to charge a 650mAh battery in 8 hours. We brought up concerns that creating a hole for the requisite watch movement to poke through the panel would require the panel to be split into a number of smaller panels as it's impossible (or at least very hard) to drill a hole in a monocrystaline solar panel. This would reduce the effective size of the panel due to the gaps between the sections drawing into question the original 8 hour charge time spec.


Irony is an off-record strategy.
If something is off-record, it doesn't go onto official records.
"I'll tell you who shot the sheriff, but it's off-record. I don't want my name involved."
"Yes, the US uses torture to gain information. But it's off the record."
"What I'm telling you is off-record. If you tell anyone I told you, I'll deny ever having met you."
PS: I'm not why in what context irony would be off-record. Perhaps you could tell us?
whats for the record mean?

Cerkev svatého Mikuláše (ukrajinsky: Церква Святого Миколи Чудотворця, rusky: Церковь Святого Николая Чудотворца) je dřevěná cerkev v obci Podobovec, v okrese Miržhirja, v Zakarparské Ukrajině.

Cerkev je památníkem lemkovské dřevěné architektury nebo také verchovynského baroka.

Historie
Cerkev byla postavena koncem 17. století a v roce 1785 byla přestěhována doprostřed vesnice, po té, co původní svatyně nestačily z kapacitních důvodů. Podle dendrochronologie byla svatyně postavená v roce 1783. Po přenesení byla přestavba ovlivněna uniatskou barokní modernizací.

Architektura
Cerkev je dřevěná roubená orientovaná dvousrubová dvouhřebenová stavba na půdorysu obdélníku třímístná. Nad babincem se tyčí štenýřová věž zakončená dvojitou barokní bání s lucernou. V západním průčelí je uzavřená veranda (dříve otevřená, arkádová) s plochým stropem. Kolem cerkve obíhá pultová střecha posazena na dřevěných konzolách, které vystupují ze stěn. Chrám je zastřešen sedlovou střechou, nad kněžištěm nižší. Střecha cerkve a obvodová pultová střecha jsou pokryty plechem, dříve byly pokryty dubovým šindelem.

Loď a babinec mají plochý strop. Interiér je pokryt překližkou a nabarven namodro.

Zvonice
U chrámu stojí samostatná dřevěná patrová zvonice na půdorysu obdélníku z roku 1785. Spodní část je roubená krytá obvodovou pultovou střechou. Tato část nemá nosnou funkci, je postavena kolem čtyř štenýřů, které mají nosnou funkci a tvoří vyšší bedněnou hranolovou část. Zvonice je zakončena nízkou jehlanovou střechou, krytou plechem.

Despite some of the myths out there, spray foam roofing continues to be a top choice for reliable, lasting roof protection. In fact, SPF roofing contractors and building owners alike can each benefit from this increasingly popular option.
In order to apply spray foam roofing, contractors need either new or used spray foam roofing equipment. A "typical" line of spray foam equipment includes spray foam rigs, reactors and generators, hoses, spray foam guns, as well as other spray foam application equipment.
If you are thinking about purchasing used spray foam roofing equipment for your business, it's important to understand all of your options.
One of the most essential choices you need to make is deciding whether or not to buy new or used spray foam equipment. There are pluses and minuses to each option, so it's best to carefully consider all of them in order to determine which can best solve your current and future needs.
First and foremost, new equipment is almost always in perfect condition – there is no previous wear and tear. New spray foam roofing equipment can be custom-ordered according to your specifications. Furthermore, your choices include the very latest models.
The main drawback to buying new spray foam roofing equipment is the price tag. If you pay full price for the equipment, it may limit the amount of equipment and/or pieces you will be able to buy at one time.
With used spray foam roofing equipment, the biggest enticement is actually the price tag. In fact, you can save a considerable amount of money, and in turn, may allow you to buy even more equipment and/or pieces. This is especially helpful for new or smaller-size businesses, or anyone with an extremely tight budget.
If you have an interest in a particular type of older equipment — or you are seeking to supplement some of the equipment you already have — buying used may be your best route to locate these items.
Drawbacks include the potential for limited selection options, and it is unlikely that you will be able to customize your choices. Furthermore, many items may have some signs of wear and tear.
Serving commercial roofing contractors, spray foam insulation contractors, and the materials suppliers that serve those markets, Intech Equipment and Supply has built a network of industry relationships to provide the best in support and manufacturer materials. For sprayfoam roofing equipment, spray foam insulation, single ply roofing, and commercial roof coatings applications – Intech Equipment and Supply is your one-stop shop.

The mission of the Adult Faith Formation Ministry is to continue the religious education of adult Catholics, to aid in their spiritual formation, and to help them to apply the tenets of their faith to current moral problems.
We do this by offering courses in scripture, church history, the Catholic Catechism, and lectures from noted and learned speakers in their area of expertise. A series of films, which complement the lectures, is shown monthly. The Adult Faith Formation Ministry meets monthly on the third Thursday at 7:00 pm in the library. Interested parishioners are welcome to attend.
If you are interested in finding out more about the Catholic faith or if you are 18 or older and interested in receiving the Sacraments of Baptism, Reconciliation, Eucharist and Confirmation, then Journey in Faith is for you. If you have already received all of your sacraments and would like to know more about these topics, you are always welcome to join us for any, or all, of the Journey in Faith sessions.
If you have received Sacraments through Eucharist, and are desiring the Sacrament of Confirmation only as an adult, we also have a class just for you. Classes are held 3 to 4 times per year. The Sacrament of Confirmation for adults takes place at various parishes throughout the Archdiocese each year. A schedule of classes and locations for the Sacrament can be obtained through the parish office.
ACTS is an acronym for Adoration, Community, Theology and Service. These four themes are the main focus of the ACTS Retreat Weekends. Men's (English & Spanish), Women's (English & Spanish), and Teen's retreats are offered yearly.
This retreat is a wonderful weekend getaway for married couples looking to renew their love and deepen their faith in God through shared prayer. It is offered once a year, the last weekend in January and takes place at Mo Ranch in Ingram, Texas.
A group (Cenacle) that is open to anyone, and meets on the Monday of each month before the last Sunday at 4:00 pm in the Library to study the Diary of St. Faustina. A Divine Mercy Cenacle is a group of people who meet regularly for song, prayer, and discussion on Scripture and the writings of St. Maria Faustina, as a Small Christian Community. The revelations given to St. Maria Faustina are excellent for spiritual growth and also give a deeper understanding of our merciful Lord.
"Be Still and Know that I am God". Taking time to gather together gives us a glimpse of the promise of the "Peace that Surpasses Understanding." Learning the discipline of quieting the mind and emptying oneself makes room for the Spirit to be more immediately present as we seek guidance. The Meditation Group meets in the Library on Friday mornings at 10:30 am.
We invite all men of our community to join us on Saturday morning for a prayer of the Rosary and short scripture readings and discussion. The Reading of the Rosary begins at 7:30 am and is followed by a break at 8:00 am-8:15 am. Scripture reading and discussion begins at 8:15 am until 8:30 am. Coffee, snacks and fellowship are from 7:00 am-7:30 am, in the FFC.
The Altar Server Ministry involves the youth of the parish in service to God and the community by assisting the priest during Mass and other services. Open to all boys and girls who have made their First Communion. The Parish Sacristan/Liturgist provides training.
Children's Liturgy is designed to help children experience meaningful liturgies through visual aide and dramatization. The liturgies serve the needs of youth and children by nurturing their spiritual life as they serve as lectors, choir members, and offertory bearers.
The library provides books on the Bible, the Sacraments, religious education, prayer, and lives of the saints. Educational videos are also available. In addition, there are standard reference books, children's books, novels, biographies and books of general interest. Book fairs and a yearly book sale are special events. The two rooms of the library are available for small classes or discussion groups at times when the library is not open. The hours of operation are Sunday 8:15 am to 1:00 pm, Tuesday and Thursday 9:00 am to 12:00 pm.
The work of the Communion Service Ministry is to lead the people in the liturgy of the word and the sharing of communion. The service follows the prayers and readings from the first part of the Mass, with a reflection on the message in the day's gospel or other scripture. The communion service minister also distributes the Eucharist using the sacred hosts that were consecrated at an earlier Mass. Communion service is held on Wednesdays.
The Eucharistic Ministers are a group of lay people who assist the priest and deacon at all weekend Masses, Holy Days and holidays to distribute Holy Communion in both forms. The Eucharistic Ministers work on a rotating schedule for weekend Masses and volunteer for duty for Holy Days and holiday Masses. The chairmen of the committee are responsible for the creation of the rotating schedule. On occasion the Archdiocese has a citywide meeting to reinforce the norms or update the norms for the distribution of Holy Communion. All Eucharistic Ministers are invited to attend this meeting.
The mission of the homebound ministry at St. Anthony de Padua is to bring Jesus, both in the Eucharist and in the gift of our presence to our sisters and brothers in the community who are unable to be present at the Eucharistic table because of illness or disability. This extends to those in nursing homes, retirement centers, hospitals, or private homes-wherever this need is present. We try to meet two times a year with the Pastor, so that the members can discuss and share any situations or ideas that can improve our ministry. Please call the rectory if you are unable to attend Mass and would like to receive the Eucharist.
There are four Nursing/Assisted Living or Independent Living Homes in the St. Anthony de Padua area that we visit regularly. Volunteers visit with the residents and on special occasions will provide gifts and goodies for them. Each week there is a Communion Service or a Mass at the various homes and the Eucharist is brought regularly to all Catholic residents. Our parish Nursing Home Ministry serves Alamo Heights Rehab and Nursing Home, Stone Brook Manor, Emeritus at Lincoln Heights (Brighten Gardens), and The Forum at Lincoln Heights.
Influencing My Peers as a Catholic Teen - Our youth community strives to grow together in Christ by creating a positive relationship with God and one another, through fun, fellowship, prayer and service.

Cantor's rehearsals are usually after the choir practice or can be scheduled at their convenience. All singers are welcome.
Instruments will play along with choirs, accompanying the singing congregation. From time to time they will play instrumental interludes.
The mission of the Religious Education Program is to actively encourage and foster Catholic Education and spiritual formation to children of all ages in order to create a positive relationship with God and one another. Religious Education classes are held from September through May. St. Anthony de Padua offers formation classes from Pre-Kinder (4 yrs.) to 12th grade. There are countless opportunities to assist and volunteer in our Religious Education Program.

The Sacramental Program includes the Sacraments of Baptism, Reconciliation, First Eucharist and Confirmation.
This is a week of faith-filled experiences for children in grades Pre-K through 5th. Vacation Bible School is designed to enhance the knowledge of the Catholic Faith in our children in a fun environment for one week during the summer.
The Youth Ministry Program at St. Anthony's strives to provide the Young People of our community with several components to foster the personal and spiritual growth of each young person, to draw young people to responsible participation in the life, mission, and work of the faith community and to empower the youth to live as disciples of Jesus Christ in our world today. The Youth Program has activities for Junior High and High School aged young people. There are special events, lock-ins and retreats several times a year.
The "Ask a Lawyer" program meets the first Saturday of each month from 10:00 am-12:00 noon in the Faith Formation Building. Our lawyer is there to help you with free legal advice.

No appointment is necessary. Walk-ins are welcome.
If you are, or have been, a caregiver of a family member with long-term illness, you are warmly invited to our caregivers group. Centered in faith, we support each other with prayer, sharing of ideas, experiences and information about helpful resources.
Counseling services for individuals, families, marriage, etc. are available to parish members and families. Because of confidentiality, please contact the Pastor in the Parish Office for referral and information.
The Guadalupanas/Guadalupanos of St. Anthony de Padua is a society made up of men and women of the parish whose main purpose is to honor Our Lady of Guadalupe. Our mission is to promote a deeper devotion and more recognition of our Lady of Guadalupe, Mother of God, Mother of the Americas and our Mother.

I had so much fun knitting my Super Bulky Dropstitch Hat & Cowl, I thought I would make a lacy version for the autumn! But this one features intermittent beads knitted in for a touch of contrasting color.
Knit this in sock weight (or finer, just carry two strands together) for lightweight breezy accessories perfect for when that weather is shifting and it just a touch nippy.

Largest crowd ever said to fill campsite for D-100
Square D Photography
A panoramic view of this year's Desert 100 races shows an extended area to the northeast of the campsite that had to be opened to accommodate the number of visitors attending.
Tuesday's meeting of the Odessa Chamber of Commerce was headed by a very tired trio of officers. President Zach Schafer and vice president Jeff Huiras were still helping to clean up the race campsite and haul tables and benches back to town on Monday and Tuesday. Schafer is also the proprietor of Rocky Coulee Brewing Company and the Desert 100 weekend represents one of the busiest times of the year for that business. Huiras was the lead Chamber representative at the beer tent this year and also put in hours and hours of time answering questions, troubleshooting and instructing servers. At the meeting, he and Schafer both expressed gratitude to Bill and Vickie Pichon for volunteering to help out in the tent, also for many hours each. The third Chamber officer at the meeting to have been burning a candle at both ends for several weeks now is treasurer Larissa Zeiler, who is a CPA with Leffel, Otis & Warwick and faces the looming April 15 deadline for income tax return preparation.
As busy as these people are with their own businesses and places of employment, they still make time to help out the Chamber by volunteering to provide a much appreciated service to the thousands of visitors who attend Odessa-related events. Huiras said he was told that the entrance gate crew to the campsite distributed 8,400 wrist bands to folks wanting to camp this past weekend. During the prior weekend, he was also told, the number of participants was also higher than ever before.
Estimates from the raw numbers available this soon after the event indicate that the races this year likely made more money for the Chamber than did Deutschesfest 2018.
More information on the race weekend will be provided as information becomes available.
Those interested in seeing additional pictures of the races may visit the http://www.smugmug.com website page of the official photographer, Square D Photography. There are some very spectacular photos.

Value Modeling and Trade-Off Analysis of the Tactical Assault Light Operator Suit
Elliot Fairbrass

Giovanni Perez-Ortega

Vikram Mittal
The Tactical Assault Light Operator Suit (TALOS) is a powered, armored exoskeleton designed to enhance an operator's survivability, lethality, and mobility. The suit is a SOCOM initiative using rapid acquisition practices with a functional prototype expected in 2018. Value modeling allows the TALOS design teams to rapidly perform design trade analysis while ensuring that the proposed system is in-line with the operator's needs. A stochastic value model was built for the power subsystem through an analysis of the requirements to develop value hierarchies, swing-weight matrices, and value functions. An Excel based tool performed trade-off analysis to determine the best design solution. This tool accounts for uncertainty in raw data values to create distributions in the cost and value of each design alternative, which is critical for assessing risk. The model was expanded to other subsystems as well as the suit as a whole.

Northern State's Sather to coach University of North Dakota
- May. 30, 2019 02:00 PM EDT
GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) — A coach at a small-college basketball program in South Dakota will take over at Division I University of North Dakota.
North Dakota announced Friday that Northern State coach Paul Sather would succeed Brian Jones, who stepped down after 13 years with the Fighting Hawks.
Sather went 162-82 in nine years at Northern State, which is in Aberdeen, South Dakota. He led the Wolves to the NCAA Division II title game two years ago, when they came within a missed buzzer-beater of winning the championship.
The Princeton, Minnesota, native was named the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference coach of the year the last two seasons.
Sather also coached at Black Hills State for five years. He guided that program to the NAIA Final Four and a school-record 30 wins in 2008-09.

Bronson Abstract Company performs the services that protect our clients, and one of the most important is a Lien Search. A Lien Search is conducted to determine whether there are any unrecorded or 'overlooked' liens.
NOTE: While persons or businesses to which a debt is owed typically place liens, liens are NOT limited to lending facilities or mortgage companies. In fact, the debt may or may not be related to the property.
There are a multitude of lien types that can adversely affect your interest in a property you want to purchase.
A lien search conducted by Bronson Abstract Company can identify which type of lien is placed on a property. It can also indicate whether the lien was placed with the consent of the property owner (consensual) or created by either a governmental entity or by an individual or company authorized to create a lien by law (involuntary).
1. Prevents the property owner from selling or transferring property prior to lien satisfaction.
2. Enables the claimant to undertake foreclosure proceedings to satisfy a debt in the case of an involuntary lien.
3. Establishes priorities among multiple creditors claiming financial interest in a property, which is claimed by a lien.
Trust Bronson Abstract Company to provide peace of mind with a professional lien search.
