(from Vials of the Seven Last Plagues, dictations from the Seven Archangels to the Messenger Elizabeth Clare Prophet, Summit University Press, copyright 1976) "In the name of the beloved mighty victorious Presence of God, I AM in me, my very own beloved Holy Christ Self, Holy Christ Selves of all mankind, the seven beloved archangels, beloved Lanello, the entire Spirit of the Great White Brotherhood and the World Mother and through the magnetic power of the sacred fire vested within the threefold flame of love, wisdom and power burning within my heart, I decree: 1. Holy Christ Self above me, Thou balance of my soul, Let thy blessed radiance Descend and make me whole. Refrain: Thy flame within me ever blazes, Thy peace about me ever raises, Thy love protects and holds me, Thy dazzling light enfolds me, I AM thy threefold radiance, I AM thy living presence Expanding, expanding, expanding now. 2. Holy Christ flame within me, Come, expand thy triune light; Flood my being with the essence Of the pink, blue, gold and white. 3. Holy lifeline to my Presence, Friend and brother ever dear, Let me keep thy holy vigil, Be thyself in action here. And in full faith I consciously accept this manifest, manifest, manifest (3x) right here and now with full power, eternally sustained, all-powerfully active, ever expanding and world enfolding until all are wholly ascended in the light and free! Beloved I AM, beloved I AM, beloved I AM!
(v. 2, #20, published by The White Lodge, copyright 1980) "There is a very definite gnosis, a spiritual compendium of knowledge, not only on angels but on life itself, which is absolutely not realized or known by mankind. There is such a tremendous amount of knowledge that what we have already externalized about God, all of the theology books that are written, is not even one millionth of all that there is to know about the Infinite One. And yet we need have no fear because of this great overpowering vastness in its relationship to the seeming minuteness of our individual self because we are like a drop of water from the ocean. The ocean is the Infinite, and we are only the drop. But we have all the qualities resident within this drop that are in the whole ocean. They are there but untapped or tapped in part. Now the angels and the reality of the angels is most important because in a room like this, angels can come by the millions. In most cases for practical purposes we will say they form an amphitheater around a room like this which is similar to a huge football field, and you people would be stting in the field. The angels will form a tier in the atmosphere and then another tier above that. And this goes way up into the upper atmosphere so that they can go up for miles around a place like this and it will be like a cone. It will spread out over Los Angeles and go out at a tangent. But all around the angels, the angels will be sitting. And they will do this. They do this very thing. Myriads of these beings assemble on these tiers and during a service such as we conduct here they often will respond to the hearts of the people as the people send out their love to God. And the angels can focus a light ray; they can stretch out a hand, like this, and the light just pours down no matter how high up they are. And they all will focus down in this football field, and after awhile you get a tremendous feeling of light. And when you have songs which the angels like, and you have music--the songs, the music, the adoration of men's hearts--all these things combine and conspire to cause an uplifted feeling in the heart. And after awhile those who are sensitive become very, very joyful, and you get a wonderful feeling in a meeting such as we are going to have simply because of these angelic beings. Now I'm talking about angels that are not manifesting in a physical body like you and I have. They have a form and appearance. Most people, of course, think of angels as having wings. They don't need them. But what they do have are emanations of light that pour out from their being. These shafts of light actually are the direct emanation of the stream of electronic power that composes the angel, which is derived directly from the Godhead. Now the trouble with most of us human beings is that we try to define things; and we try to define them so much that in the defining of things, we destroy them. You understand me, I think. I mean, we try to break it down into so many component parts that after awhile instead of having a watch that works beautifully, like a Swiss watch, we have just a bunch of gears laying here. And we seem to imagine that we are a mechanical creation. We're a living soul. And the angels are electronic light from the heart of God manifesting to do his will--messengers of God from inner realms. There is one thing I would like to touch on as I am closing and that is the angels that surround the Mass. Naturally, you all realize that we are not a Catholic church, but we are a 'catholic' church in the sense that the word catholic means 'universal.' And therefore we are universal in the sense that we have an open heart toward men of goodwill upon this planet. Everyone who is a person of goodwill would like to see this world reflect spiritual beauty, would like to see strength and wisdom and power in men and no greed, no selfishness, no wrong motive but only purity and transcendence. And so when I speak of the Mass, I am not in any way speaking of the Mass in order to confirm or deny that which is practiced as the Christian Mass. But I would like to say that because the bread and the wine are employed in the Order of the Priesthood of Melchizedek, the angels who actually feed the spiritual light rays into the Mass respond to the ancient call. The Mass, then, the bread--the whole loaf--symbolizes the whole being of God. And each crumb, each broken piece that comes off from the whole loaf symbolizes 'This is my body which was broken for you.' This means that God is everything and that all of us have a little portion of the Deity within us. And it is this portion of the Deity that Almighty God would feed with his holy energy symbolized by the wine. And so the angels respond to this and it is connected with the scriptural injunction which states: 'Wheresoever the carcass is, there will the eagles be gathered together.' And this means that wherever the mystical body of Christ is, there those who have the power of spiritual perception will gather together to feed the body of God. The angels gather around this symbolized Mass simply because it bespeaks of the reality of the Soul (solar energies) of God in man, and the angels desire to feed the soul with the holy energy of God. And so there is a mighty and potent symbol here in the breaking of the bread--'This is my body, which is broken for you.' The mystical Christ is clearly revealed in this, yet most people think only in terms of the historical Jesus, whom we affirm existed. Of course he existed, just as you and I do. But the true and real and important one is the Universal Christ, the only begotten of the Father full of grace and truth, who is the reality of every person--not just one, not just Jesus, but everyone. And this was the message that he tried to convey. Therefore this beloved Jesus, who is the angel of the Presence in a sense of the word, has this great reality which he can bring to us today. But the reality of the angels ought to be just a bit closer to all of you now--not so much as you try to define, saying, With what body do the dead come? How do angels appear? What is the substance of their being? Do they exist? and asking all these questions. Instead of that, just accept the angels as a natural emanation of love from the heart of God. Be content. You don't have to analyze the angels. When the time comes that you should do that, God will give you the wisdom, the complete wisdom that you need. But until then, accept their reality if you can. If you can't, don't worry about it. I shan't condemn you. Nor, I think, will any of the great masters condemn you. Because we are all in the schoolrooms of earth to learn. That's why we are here. And if we cannot accept truth, it is our misfortune. It is our own misfortune, but we ought not to accept truth just simply because someone says it. But take what you can out of it, for we give it in the Spirit of Christ love to you all."

Now Reading:legalization | Progressive Champion? Donald Trump for Full-Blown Drug Legalization Circa 1990
UNITED STATES Ð FEBRUARY 10: Donald Trump speaks to the CPAC meeting, held by the American Conservative Union in Washington on Thursday, Feb. 10, 2010. (Photo By Bill Clark/Roll Call)
Whether Donald Trump still supports the legalization of all drugs, one thing is for certain: he is not afraid to go extremist if the situation calls for it.
Last week we took a look at Republican Presidential Candidate Rand Paul, who shared his logical stance on drug policy with America.
This week we turn to another Republican Presidential Candidate, Donald Trump, whom MSNBC coined ‘progressive champion’. When it comes to drugs, Trump’s sentiments circa 1990 are as follows:
“We’re losing badly the war on drugs. You have to legalize drugs to win that war. You have to take the profit away from these drug czars.”
Whether this means he still supports the legalization of all drugs or if his thoughts have changed in the decades since, one thing is for certain: Donald Trump is not afraid to go extremist if the situation calls for it.

A glimpse into this issue . . .
by Tom Watson
The destination need not be any more than achieving a continuum beyond
that transitional moment within a paddler’s soul when being on the ocean
becomes being of the ocean. When all one’s senses of body, mind, and
surroundings mesh into one spiritual journey, encompassing everything.
See and Read the Photographic Essay
by Diane Buccheri
The 4 A.M. reality is different from the 12 noon reality. In the time
just before twilight, all takes on a deeper meaning, holographic.
In this darkness, light is shed on truths and mysteries are revealed.
In the glare of the sun high overhead, these are lost, lost to depths
within. Yet retrievable with a search in the dark.
It is here I go for answers.

We cheered and clapped. They jumped solo, then in pairs, in synch,
in opposite directions, almost forming a heart shaped arch as they
passed each other in mid-air. If ever an animal gave a gift to man,
this was ours.
They were almost onshore, not more than 20 feet from us in no more
than 5 to 10 feet of water, lifting their bodies skyward with little momentum.

FROM THE EYES
OF A KAYAK
by Richard Roshon
She surfaces from under my kayak, swims alongside. I see my reflection in her eye.
I feel her sorrow, deep, deep sorrow with the passing of her calf.
She raises her pectoral fin and lays it ever so gently over the bow of my kayak.
A mother humpback bonds with her calf and creates a sense of security through
touch while living in a medium of seemingly no boundaries.
Since then, the late 1970s, this humpback whale, with each of her newborn calves,
lays alongside my kayak and follows along.
Frequently, my companion surfaces under my kayak. I slowly roll from her side and
reach out to touch her. Her outer layers of skin wrinkle as she feels my touch.
Here in Hawai’i we call this chicken skin. On the mainland it is goosebumps.

Wisconsin farmers have planters rolling
May 3, 2021 By Larry Lee Filed Under: 2021 Growing Season, 2021 Planting Season, Corn, Crops, Crops, Grains, Hay/Forage, News, Soybeans, USDA, Wisconsin
Wisconsin farmers are making good planting progress, but also reporting concerns about the effects of recent weather. USDA reporters say some crops were injured by hard freezes, some forage crops suffered setbacks, and budding fruit trees might have lower production in some areas.
Along with last week’s cold spell, there are concerns about moisture levels. Topsoil moisture is 23% short and 8% very short.
Twenty-seven percent of the state’s corn is planted, which USDA says is a day behind last year but five days ahead of average. Sixteen percent of the soybeans are planted, which is ahead of last year and the five year average.
Sixty-eight percent of the oats are planted. Pasture conditions were down 1% from last week, and there is still some spring tillage and manure application taking place.
Growers are nearly 60% finished planting the expected 67-thousand acres of Wisconsin potatoes, and industry spokesman Tamas Houlihan tells Brownfield he expects the central sands region to be wrapped up with planting this week.

What’s the difference between a model 62 and 62A?
From 1939 through 1940, both Model 62 and 62A variants overlapped, and it can be confusing to determine whether you have a Model 62 or 62A.

When did the Fisher bodied Cadillac Series 62 come out?
The Fisher-bodied Series 62 replaced the Cadillac Series 61 at the lowest rung in the model line up in 1940. The Series 62 featured a low sleek “torpedo” style C-body with chrome window reveals, more slant in the windshield, and a curved rear window.
When did the Winchester Model 1906 come out?
The Model 1906 was made in several variants, all with 20-inch barrels. For the first 2 years, from 1906 to 1908, all were chambered only for the .22 Short. The .22 S/L/LR interchangeable model came in 1909.
Who was the inventor of the Winchester Model 1890?
Like many other successful Winchester firearms, the Model 1890 was designed and patented by John M. Browning. Winchester bought the patent from him in 1888, and Browning began the work of building a prototype.
What are the features of a Winchester rifle?

The calendar doesn’t yet say April 1, but we’re not sure that the Broncos haven’t gotten a head start on the process.
In a statement released Tuesday night, owner Pat Bowlen says that the team will accommodate quarterback Jay Cutler’s request for a trade:
“Numerous attempts to contact Jay Cutler in the last 10 days, both by [coach] Josh McDaniels and myself, have been unsuccessful.
“A conversation with his agent earlier today clearly communicated and confirmed to us that Jay no longer has any desire to play for the Denver Broncos.
“We will begin discussions with other teams in an effort to accommodate his request to be traded.”
Did we say, “Wow”?
If there was any doubt, the auction is open. Let the bidding begin.
Bowlen Says Broncos Will Trade Cutler


In Horse Racing Information’s previous article, we spoke about the best race horses throughout history. As with any sport, it is important to look back and see the greats that have come before. These horses have helped to push the sport forward and ensured that horse racing is where it is right now.
While these horses are held in reverence, it is also very important in knowing the horses that are out today. Let’s take a look at a couple of race horses that you should look out for in today’s horse races.
The first horse we’ll be looking at is called Expert Eye.
Expert Eye was foaled early in 2015. This makes him three years old right now, the starting and some say prime age for racing.
Last year, no one would think that this horse would be on this list. Initially, at the start of 2017, Expert Eye was also on the watchlist. However, a disappointing race on October of that year derailed any momentum that Expert Eye had. He came in 9th at the Dewhurst Stakes.
However, he quickly bounced back in Glorious Godwood where he won the race by at least five lengths. This allowed Expert Eye to once again be recognized in expert’s eyes.
He is currently the favorite to win the 2000 Guineas, but with the past experience, it is wise to wonder whether history will repeat itself again.
Nevertheless, whatever may happen, Expert Eye is one to look out for. He could very well come out as one of the best in the world.
Next up we have Clemmie. Like Expert Eye, Clemmie started off with a lackluster performance. However, in 2018, she has worked her way up to become the horse that people are all looking out for. She is the current favorite for the 1000 Guineas right now.
Despite her lack of size, she has the speed to become one of the best.
Here are only a few current horses to watch out for. With the talent on the field right now, we are excited to see where horse racing will go from here.

Kolkata–West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said on Thursday she had the shock of her life when an MRI done in a city nursing home “showed” her appendix which had been surgically removed years back.
Banerjee, speaking in the assembly, cited the incident to relate her personal experience about the poor state of affairs in private health facilities.
“I was once admitted to a city nursing home and underwent an MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) test. Though my appendix was surgically removed in a previous operation, the test result strangely showed the organ was in place.
“The doctor was also baffled with the result when I mentioned it to him,” Banerjee said in her remarks on the West Bengal Clinical Establishments (Registration Regulation and Transparency) Bill, 2017, that was tabled and passed in the assembly during the day.
She said she advised the nursing home authority to change the MRI scanner as such wrong results could be “dangerous”.
“I told the nursing home (authority) that they should change the machine. Either the machine was bad or it lacked proper maintenance. If tests are conducted in this way, it would become dangerous for anybody,” the Chief Minister said.
However, she refused to name the nursing home.
The new bill tabled on Friday includes various degrees of penal measures against offending private healthcare providers in the state and introduces a bunch of new regulations like not denying treatments to accident, rape acid attack and disaster victims even if they are unable to pay for it.

Big Funding Boost for "Internet Archaeology
Great news for those interested in archaeology and making information on current and past discoveries readily accessible to everyone with an internet connection! Story from the Yorkshore Post Wednesday, 26th November 2008 US funding boost for web-based archaeology journal Published Date: 25 November 2008 By Brian Dooks FUNDING from a New York-based foundation will help York University make academic research material available online. The Andrew W Mellon Foundation has awarded 250,000 US dollars to the study led by Julian Richards, head of the university's department of archaeology and co-director of online journal Internet Archaeology. Prof Richards is looking at ways of using online publication to allow researchers to link their work to databases, video, audio and other information as well as stimulating academic debate. The latest research will build on work completed as part ofan earlier award-winning project, Linking Electronic Archives and Publications, or Leap, which was funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council under its ICT Strategy programme. Prof Richards said: "We're very excited about this project as it will allow us to work with North American archaeologists to create novel ways of publishing their research findings. "It builds on the success of the original Leap project, which won Best Archaeological Innovation and was highly commended in the Best ICT Project category at the 2008 British Archaeological Awards." The project will run until March 31, 2011. Internet Archaeology, hosted by York University, was established in 1996. It has over 70,000 hits per day to its pages from more than 120 countries.

COMPLETED!!! BUT NOT FINISHED
The City of Eunice built a walking park with 2 bridges. The foundation of the bridges were undermined by nutria burrowing on the banks of the coulee. In May 2016 the City of Eunice asked TRAIL for assistance with the repairs. TRAIL partnered with the Rotary Club of Eunice to fund the repairs to the bridges and other improvements to the park. This project and partnership was initiated through the relationships built over the years through the various events put on by TRAIL and the Rotary Club of Eunice (Zydeco Triathlon & Experience Louisiana Festival Bike Ride).
FUTURE: All parks have an ongoing maintenance needs and the commitment from the Rotary Club of Eunice and TRAIL will help keep improvements happening at this park. Next phase of improvements includes painting, installation of bench and bike racks.

When two pit bulls named Agatha and Jukebox arrived at Pima Animal Care Center in Tucson, Arizona, they didn’t even know about each other. But from the moment the pitties met each other in a playgroup, they were inseparable.
Jukebox was at the Arizona shelter first, having been picked up from the streets as a stray. About a month later, Agatha came along after her former owner surrendered her. Jukebox was almost two years old, while Agatha was around a year older than him.
According to Pima Animal Care Center’s director of animal services, Kristen Hassen-Auerbach, bonded pairs in shelters have usually known each other all their lives. In many cases, their relationship started long before they came into the facility.
But despite being strangers, something beautiful blossomed between Jukebox and Agatha at their very first meeting. It was clear from the start that their friendship would last forever.
Before finding each other, both pitties were having trouble adjusting to shelter life. Waiting in a kennel day in and day out took a toll on Jukebox and Agatha, and they became increasingly antsy as the weeks passed.
But having a best friend made the wait somewhat easier. The pit bulls became so close in such a short time that they started sharing one kennel.
Jukebox and Agatha even refused to sleep apart, choosing instead to snuggle with each other in one tiny bed. It’s no small feat for two large dogs!
Pima Animal Care Center knew they would have a difficult time adopting out a bonded pair, but there was no way they were separating Jukebox and Agatha. After all, the pitties feel lost when they don’t have the other by their side.
Luckily, a photo of the pooches cuddling went viral, with over 12,000 people sharing the post. Thanks to this adorable picture, a couple named Erin and Ubaldo Leon found out about Jukebox and Agatha and dropped by the shelter to see them.
After hitting it off right away with the friendly pitties, Erin and Ubaldo made the adoption official. Even while excitedly exploring every corner of their new forever home, Jukebox and Agatha never strayed too far from each other.
Now, the two will never have to be cooped up in a kennel again, and they will always be together with their loving fur parents. Watch Jukebox and Agatha before their adoption in the video below:

The showdown’s Grand Finale, broadcast live at DPW Conference 2021, showcased the top 10 startups pitching their solutions in five key categories, each one ranking high on the priority list of global procurement organisations.
The winner of the category for risk and resilience as well as the overall audience vote winner was Prewave, a company which utilises AI to find, understand and categorise risks facing suppliers around the globe, sending its clients highly specific and relevant alerts as a result.
Here, Harald Nitschinger, tells us of the impact DEMO 2021 has had on the company and how Prewave has evolved during a period dominated by risk and supply chain disruption.
Interview with Harald Nitschinger, CEO and co-founder, Prewave
With everything going on in the world at the current time, are you seeing a growing number of companies placing risk at the top of their agenda?
Nitschinger: A lot is happening in the world right now and we’re seeing a lot of requests and a lot of clients suddenly gaining an understanding of how they’re exposed for example to the Ukraine and Russia situation. Some aren’t exposed within their first-tier suppliers but within their second, third and fourth tier suppliers. We can help them figure that out.
How did the idea for Prewave come about?
Nitschinger: Prewave started as a research project at the University of Technology in Vienna. It was led by my co-founder, Lisa (Dr. Lisa Smith). We were researching how we could use public data to gain more insight into risk and supply chains. We founded the company in 2017 as a spin-off and, since then, we’ve scaled our operations. We currently have close to 50 employees based in Austria.
DEMO was huge for us. We reached a level of awareness that we wouldn’t have otherwise gained, or a level that would have cost us a lot of money to achieve.Harald Nitschinger, CEO and co-founder, Prewave
What kind of technology is Prewave based-on – and what kind of insight does it allow?
Nitschinger: Prewave is fundamentally based on artificial intelligence technology that allows us to analyse media data – social media, news media – in more than 50 languages. It really goes to the source, and enables us to understand what’s happening in the supply chain of a given company. It might be residents based near a certain supplier complaining about air pollution – they would be doing that in the local language, in Indonesian or in Chinese, for example. We would pick up on that and feed that back as a risk signal to our customers, enabling them to take action. We’ve been working on this for 10 years, starting in 2012 as part of our PhD research at the University. We’re still finding new and additional applications for this technology, the possibilities are endless.
Do you come from a technical background?
Nitschinger: I personally do, although currently I’m in charge of sales, marketing and customer projects – I took a side-step from that career! Like many of the founding members of Prewave, I went to the same computer science high school in Austria, where you start at the age of 14 and continue until the age of 19. I still do some of the hardcore tech stuff occasionally, but my main focus is on product, customers and sales. I think that’s one of the real benefits that I bring to the table, I still have one foot in each department. Maybe that’s quite rare but I think it’s invaluable. For any startup, you need to be able to provide feedback from customers and understand what the market needs – that’s a key element of product development.
How has the company evolved since 2017?
Nitschinger: We’ve seen some incredible things happen over the past five years. We’ve had the pandemic and now we’ve got a military conflict. But what really took us by surprise was the ESG and sustainability side of things. That was really something that we always believed in but, in 2018, when we were fundraising, investors told us it was a ‘nice to have’ but wasn’t something you could make money with. Now, with the regulatory landscape changing in Germany, with the supply chain act, and on the EU level, that’s not the case. The consumer consciousness around those things has really changed too – people are buying electric cars, not just because it’s the best choice but because it’s the most sustainable choice, and obviously the supply chain is a key part of that. That’s a huge shift. The younger generation are hugely conscious of this.
How important was DEMO to Prewave?
Nitschinger: For us, it was huge. It really gave us global exposure. Up until then, we had really been focused on the German speaking region of Europe, that’s where our main customer base is. We’re now expanding into the rest of Europe and, potentially, into the United States. The exposure we got from those markets, in the US, in the UK and also other regions of Europe, DEMO played a really key part in that. We reached a level of awareness that we wouldn’t have otherwise gained, or a level that would have cost us a lot of money to achieve. We have a bunch of flagship clients from the US, and they’ve really emerged from the coverage we had as a result of DEMO. A solution like ours is a really interesting proposition when your supply chain is a truly global one.
Do you predict that the pace of technological change will continue to increase as we move through 2022 and What advice would you give those entrants for DEMO 2022?
Nitschinger: I would tell them to really work on it, and to really refine their pitch and get it done! I would also say that you need to take the time to set-up the technical equipment so it’s as snazzy as you can possibly make it. It makes a real difference to have a clear, professional and to-the-point pitch.

I really enjoyed the experience I had at Furu-Sato. The staff was very warm and welcoming as soon as I walked into the door. The service was prompt and friendly despite how busy the restaurant was. We were even more impressed with the food. The food was aesthetic with an artistic presentation feeding the eyes prior to pleasing my pallet. If you are looking for a very relaxing environment to enjoy authentic Japanese cuisine, Furu-Sato is the place to be. The owner made every effort to make sure that all the guests were well taken care of with a friendly smile. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Great atmosphere -- spacious, clean, lots of private booths, live piano music weekend evenings -- great service, and excellent sushi. Taking all into consideration this is the best sushi restaurant in the South Bay. I've been eating here for long time: these people know my name and welcome me like a long-lost friend whenever I return for a meal or a take out order. Excellent food.

It’s that time of year again. We’re 12 days into the month of November, and authors and would-be writers all around the world are cracking their knuckles and flexing their story-muscles.
So far, I’m on track this year for a perfect NoNoWriMo. That’s right: I’ve written 0 words of fiction so far this month, and if I keep up this pace of 0 words a day, I’ll be able to crack that 0 word total by the end of the month.
I’m being facetious, of course. Can you tell? In reality, if you were taking part in NaNoWriMo, you should find yourself somewhere around the 20,000 wordcount mark today.
Hey, I’ll level with you: if I had the opportunity to participate in NaNo, I would. Heck, if I could find the time to put down five thousand words, much less fifty thousand, I’d take it. I don’t really take pride in the fact that I’m not doing NaNo and that I’m not writing. I take no pleasure in the fact that it has been 3 months since I’ve written a word of fiction (compounded with another 5 months of no writing before that solitary instance of activity).
But a blog where I complain about how little I’m writing is no fun to write, and an absolute killjoy to read. So I make light, when I can. Just one of the ways I put one foot in front of the other and keep moving forward without losing hope that, yes, one day I will be a writer. I don’t even mean necessarily a published professional writer, though I hope one day to be that too, but a writer as in someone who writes. Right now? I can’t really claim even that designation.
But you know what designation I can claim? A dad. And not a half-bad one at that. Not always a good one, sure, but more good than bad. And I’m a husband. Maybe a middling one, but at least I make the effort. And I’m a an employee. I like to think I’m an asset to my company and that I bring a lot to the table. Right now, this trifecta takes the overwhelming majority of my time. Most of the remainder (not counting sleep, of course) goes to a fourth thing which I am: a responsible homeowner. The long-running projects Dear Wife and I have been engaged in are currently languishing for lack of energy to complete them, but I’m well on my way down another, more time-sensitive home owner’s project that’s eating a lot of time: reclaiming my yard from the unruly wild. (Okay, so, currently the moles are sort of winning. But new grass is one its way, and I’m still looking for new options on how to deal with the subterranean varmints.)
That’s the forecast for November 2013. But tell me, how’s your month going?

Hello my creative friends! Welcome to the new Red & Green Pour - Paint Pouring Cells Art. I have decorated my studio just a little and I feel so inspired by this color combination with the reds and greens and of course lots of gold. So this is the color combo that I want to use for my painting today.
I really want to create something bright and cheerful. I want to go for a color split base today with my green color on the bottom. So I decided to take a pretty bright phthalo green color for my base. And I'm gonna have red at the top of my split color and white in between and after that I want to go for a double traveling open cup technique to achieve some cells and play with that composition.
Acrylic Pouring RECIPE used for today’s flow art painting:
Acrylic Colors and Supplies used in this Red & Green Pour -
My paint is mixed to a very fluid consistency today and this is what I always do for the open cup technique. My open cup is just a small cookie cutter that I use. And for my cup I have dioxazine purple, crimson red, gold and cadmium yellow colors. And without further ado let's see how this creative abstract art idea turned out!
Oh wow! This acrylic Pour Painting is just gorgeous! I think this color combo works super well. There is so much movement in the composition of this abstract art idea! I'm very happy with the color transitions on both sides on my right side and on my green side. And I really love all the cells. I think open cup technique is great for fluid artists and for pouring beginners! And of course you can always use a straw and blow out some parts of you painting to have a little corrections. I hope you enjoyed the process and looking forward to hearing from you! Happy creating!

I was excited to find farro in one of my favorite Italian markets recently. Never heard of farro? Don’t feel badly, you’re not the only one. It isn’t new; in fact, it’s as old as the hills. One source states that farro was extremely popular in the Middle East during biblical times.
Farro became a less popular choice for farmers because it’s a low-yielding grain.
Despite this, it’s still grown in the wild, as well as in a cultivated manner. Today, farro is popular in Italy, Asia, and in some areas of Europe and the Middle East.
According to Wikipedia, farro is “a food product consisting of the grains of certain wheat species in whole form. The exact definition is debated. It is sold dried and is prepared by cooking in water until soft, but still crunchy (many recommend first soaking overnight). It may be eaten plain, though it is often used as an ingredient in dishes such as salads and soups. It is sometimes ground into flour and used to make pasta or bread.”
There are three grades of farro, long, medium and cracked, with a grain that resembles barley. Nutritionally, farro is a great source of complex carbohydrates, with twice the fiber and protein found in wheat that’s harvested today.
Farro isn’t sold everywhere, but you should be able to find it in well-stocked Italian markets or specialty stores. To make things a bit confusing, farro goes by different names according to geographic location. In Italy, farro is also known as emmer, spelt, and einkorn. In Germany and Switzerland spelt is more commonly grown, but since it’s used in much the same way, it is considered farro.
If you can’t find farro in your area, you’ll be happy to know that barley, quinoa, spelt, and wheat berries can be used in its place.
Here is a tasty, satisfying soup starring farro and assorted vegetables.
|Farro and Vegetable Soup|
Farro and Vegetable Soup
Yield: about 6 servings
2 Tbsp. olive oil
2 carrots, peeled and coarsely chopped
2 celery stalks, coarsely chopped
1 small onion, coarsely chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely minced
1 tsp. dried crushed rosemary
1 bay leaf
½ to 1 cup tomato puree
1 cup chicken or vegetable broth
3 cups water
1 (16 oz.) bag frozen whole leaf or chopped spinach, defrosted
(NOTE: 1 small bunch of well-washed, chopped kale or Swiss chard can be used in place of spinach)
1 tsp. salt
½ tsp. Aleppo red pepper, or to taste
1 cup farro, rinsed and drained
1 can small white beans, rinsed and drained (optional)
¼ cup flat leaf parsley and/or basil, chopped – for garnish
1. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the carrots, celery, onion, garlic, rosemary and bay leaf. Sautė until vegetables begin to soften, about 7 minutes.
2. Add tomato puree, broth, water, spinach, salt and pepper; bring to a boil.
3. Stir in farro, and the white beans, if using. Bring to a second boil, partially cover pot; reduce heat to medium-low.
4. Simmer for about 40 minutes until farro is tender but not mushy. Add more water, if necessary. Discard bay leaf. Let stand for about 5 minutes before serving.
5. Ladle soup into serving bowls and garnish with parsley and/or basil.
Robyn’s Note: At the last minute, I decided not to use the beans.

Kim Young-Soo was born on 15 December 1954 in Seoul. He studied architecture and worked in a drawing office for a year. He was unable to continue his work because of a disease of the muscles (progressive muscular dystrophy), which had begun to manifest itself three years earlier, was becoming ever more severe. Having enjoyed painting since his childhood he now began to paint with his hands until he was forced to abandon this activity five years later because his muscles had become too weak. One day he saw a woman engaged in mouth painting in a television programme and a few days later he tried this out for himself, finding that it gave him the greatest pleasure. This discovery proved to be a remarkable experience, motivating him to engage in intensive training.
Born on 4 February 1955 in Buyou, Mi-Soon Han attended correspondence courses and worked in an office for several years. In 1981 she was injured in a traffic accident which left her paralysed from neck down. Four years after the accident she took up mouth painting. A year later, AMFPA granted her a scholarship which enabled her to make further progress. As early as 1992 she became an Associate Member of the association. In 1995, she was granted Full Membership. Mi-Soon Hans works reflect her wishes and dreams as well as her recovery process. Her favourite motifs are landscapes and flowers that symbolize her great love of nature.
Jong Hyob An was born on August 21, 1963, in Woolsan. It was a diving accident which left him paralysed from the neck down, as he fractured the fifth and sixth cervical vertebrae. During rehabilitation he learned about mouth painting. Soon he began to paint with his mouth. He also learned oriental painting and writing called “Soyae” using his mouth. In 1989 the Association granted him a scholarship. Only three years later he became associate member and in 2000 full member of the VDMFK.

India on Monday prohibited the export of all varieties of onion except those cut, sliced or in powder form. “The export of all varieties of onion…is prohibited with immediate effect,” the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) said in a notification. The ban includes Bangalore rose onions and Krishnapuram onions.These varieties of onion were free for export till now.
Reason for the ban:
“Rates have increased and there is shortage of onion in the domestic market. While this shortage is seasonal, a huge amount of exports were done in the last few months during the Covid-19 pandemic,” said an official aware of the development.India exported $198 million of onions in the April-June period of FY21 and $440 million in the entire 2019-20.Bangladesh, Malaysia, UAE and Sri Lanka are the top importers of Indian onions.
India had last year banned the exports of the key kitchen staple in the wake of its rising prices in the country and set the minimum export price (MEP) of onion at $850 a tonne to curb its shipments and help bring down soaring prices in the domestic market due to floods in parts of major growing states of Maharashtra and Karnataka. The MEP was lifted in March this year and onions were made free for export.

This is a great week night simple comfort meal. We enjoyed it very much. I used fresh mushrooms instead of canned and added two cloves of garlic as well as a minced hot pepper from my garden. Yum!
Excellent recipe! I was so happy to be able to use up odds and ends of green pepper and spaghetti. I didn't have the mushrooms and added some ready-minced garlic. I did add a bit more water because I was afraid the pasta wouldn't cook right. (I made mine in the skillet). I was tempted at the end to use Velveeta, but used a 4-cheese Mexican blend instead. (I usually don't have plain cheddar on hand). It was delicious! I would also give it high marks for using inexpensive ingredients. Nancy1, thank you for the post!
While I loved the dish, I found that 2 tsps. of salt was way too much. This is great comfort food, but next time I make this dish (and yes, I will make it again), I'll definitely cut the salt by 1/2. Still a yum, tho'.

Recommendations & guidance to save lots of, protect and increase your relationship
Have you been recovering from a break up right now? would you hurt so very bad which you feel just like your heart will probably explode? Do you wish to look at other person about a minute and would like to destroy them the following? Be assured that there’s absolutely nothing wrong with you and therefore this is certainly a process that is natural going through break up.
Just like you can find stages of grief whenever someone that is mourning has died, there are phases this 1 experiences whenever going through some slack up. One girl whose very very first husband passed away and 2nd spouse divorced her said it was really easier going through the loss of a spouse than it absolutely was dealing with divorce or separation. Possibly it’s because there is more support that is social grieving the loss of someone you care about than when you’re grieving a rest up. Or possibly it’s since when some one you adore dies, you realize whereas a break up signals a choice by the spouse to leave the relationship that they did not choose to leave you.
Although both circumstances are a difficult loss that is experienced, breaking up conjures up a range of blended feelings and trouble in attempting to make feeling of the situation that is whole. The next steps will help you process what’s taking place which help you receive your break over up faster in accordance with less emotional scarring.
The initial thing you needs to do is take a seat and write a lengthy page to your ex partner. Pour out your heart. Share the experiences you’d together. Make sure he understands or her why you adored them. Placed on paper the manner in which you feel concerning the split up. Call them names. It is ok to emote in this page because no body is ever planning to view it. That is as you are likely to light a candle and burn off the letter throughout the candle’s flame. You will find very few rituals which go along with breaking up, but that one makes it possible to on the path to recovery that is emotional.
Next, you’ll want to organize to change material. When you yourself have been in a relationship of every length, you probably involve some material of his at your place and he’s got your things at their. You probably want a lot of these things as well as she or he is equally desperate to get theirs. Work out a period for the exchange that is mutual.
If you can find things of your ex’s that aren’t going to be exchanged, either field them up or away throw them. Don’t keep your ex’s toothbrush lying round the restroom as it is only going to remind you of those when you are wanting to start going through break up.
It’s also a good clear idea to box any gifts up your ex lover offered you for some time. Putting on a wristwatch that the ex provided you certainly will prompt you to think about them every right time you check to see just what time its. That’s not a good notion when going through split up.
You can find often financial matters that must be straightened out whenever recovering from a rest up. In the event that you owe your ex partner money, make an effort to either pay it back from your own funds or get another loan to cover it well https://datingranking.net/cs/fetlife-recenze/. Then go to the bank to close it if you have a checking account together, work out how you are going to divvy it up and.
What you need to be seeing is really a pattern of closing out of the areas of your life which you shared. The concept would be to produce a break that is clean all ties to ensure that there’s no psychological or physical luggage which you carry ahead into future relationships.
That is necessary to going through split up.
Once you’ve done what exactly is necessary, consent to haven’t any contact for four weeks. This may permit you to begin to build lives that are separate. You ought ton’t call, text, e-mail, or meet with the other individual during this time period. You may wish to agree totally that certain areas such as for example a particular club and even a provided church “belong” to a single celebration or the other in this month period that is long.
You will be able to interact more normally once again after you have had time to begin building a separate life. This might be a hard time, therefore provide your self the room you want so that you can start going through break up. While now it may look such as the discomfort will not subside, the fact remains 1 day you can expect to get up and you’ll observe that it is an excellent time again.
To your joy

The courts have dealt a blow to knock-off artists who have been getting a free ride by counterfeiting Coach bags.
A judge has awarded the company $257 million in damages, the largest settlement of its kind, according to Bloomberg.
The luxury brand can go after sleazy sites like mycheapcoach.com and us-coach-bags.com and have them shut down after an Illinois judge declared the people behind these sites of cybersquatting and violating the state’s Uniform Deceptive Trade Practices Act.
“This judgment should serve as a warning to everyone involved in any aspect of trafficking in counterfeit goods that Coach will find you and will seek to impose the harshest penalties available against you,” said Coach’s lawyer Todd Kahn, in a statement.
While its unlikely that Coach be able to collect funds from these scattered web sites, its the latest victory for the much-knocked off brand.
In 2009, the company began an anti-counterfeiting campaign called Operation Turnlock -- a nod to their signature handbags’ brass closures.
The judgment is the latest victory in Coach’s anti- counterfeiting campaign known as “Operation Turnlock,” the company said. Since the program’s inception in 2009, Coach has obtained monetary awards against manufacturers, wholesalers, flea market operators and other links in the counterfeit distribution chain, the New York-based company said.
Back in July, Coach went after a mother-daughter team of counterfeiters and won a $44 million judgement.
A Manhattan federal court judge shut down the Syosset, NY operation for multiple counts of trademark infringement.

What was your first tattoo and how old were you when you got it?
Winged heart in the centre of my back just before my 38th birthday
Which one is your favourite?
Don’t really have a favourite tattoo, love them all, no regrets J
Some have meanings behind them, like my girl’s best friend and Rock of ages which is for my sister as she’s the strong one in the family and keeps us all together.
Rosie the riveter and poppies, bombs and soldiers grave, I wanted as a tribute to all those who sacrificed everything for us to have the freedom we do and to remember everyday.
Do you feel that people look at you differently because you’re a tattooed woman?
I do get some unwanted attention from having tattoos, not sure if it’s because I’m a woman or just that some people don’t like ink.
I’ve had a unique dress style since my early teens so have always had people look at me differently, especially in a small town, so maybe I just don’t notice the looks anymore 😉
Strangely the older generation seem to be less concerned, I often get pensioners chatting about my 1940’s / 1950’s dress style and my tattoos don’t bother them.
Do you want to get more ink? What would you get?
Definitely getting more ink, still got gaps!! My partner and I go to ET’s Tattoos in Norwich and book a few days each year.
Have some ideas, want flowers on my collar bones but otherwise not decided yet, always trying to find something unique to my lifestyle and personality.

Covid fraudster who bought property, 16,000 shares of Tesla Inc. with stolen cash is caught
The businessman from Lebanon, Oregon, made millions buying nearly 16,000 shares of Tesla Inc., but lost it all -- along with his freedom -- when the feds figured out he had bankrolled his investments with proceeds from fraudulently obtained Covid-relief loans.
Hundreds of people have been prosecuted for falsely obtaining taxpayer-backed funds from plans intended to help small businesses during the pandemic, such as the Paycheck Protection Program. Many of them spent the money, and prosecutors were able to recover only a fraction of it. But that wasn’t the case with Lloyd, where the government got back a lot more than he scammed.
Lloyd, 51, got about $3.4 million by filing fake applications in the names of businesses owned by relatives and associates, all without their knowledge, according to court records. He used some of the proceeds to buy more than 25 pieces of real estate in Oregon and California, prosecutors said.
But his biggest windfall came with his 2020 purchase of 15,740 shares of Tesla using government money and a loan from Charles Schawb secured by equities he’d purchased with the stolen cash. ‘Increased Exponentially’
Tesla’s stock has skyrocketed since then, handing investors returns of about 50% last year alone. Lloyd’s investment was worth more than $11 million at the time agents seized his shares in January last year and $16.8 million at the close of trading Thursday.
“Lloyd transferred over $1.8 million of the PPP funds to his E*TRADE Securities brokerage account and purchased securities,” prosecutors said in a court filing. “Fortunately for the government, and for Mr Lloyd’s restitution obligation discussed below, the value of those securities increased exponentially.”
Federal agents also seized another of Lloyd’s security accounts, containing $660,000 in securities and cash.
Lloyd, who pleaded guilty in June to bank fraud, money laundering, and aggravated identity theft, was sentenced Thursday to four years in prison, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Oregon. He was also ordered to pay $4 million in fines, surrender real estate bought with the ill-gotten money, and forfeit his brokerage accounts valued at $18 million.

We’re excited to have Tony Deblois next week in concert here at Saint Timothy’s. Don’t miss this free opportunity to be entertained and inspired by someone who has played for presidents, appeared on the Today Show, Entertainment Tonight, and CBS Sunday Morning. He was also the subject of the 1997 TV movie of the week “Journey of the Heart”. Tony graduated magna cum laude from Berklee College of Music and has a repertoire of over 10,000 songs ranging from jazz, classical, and show tunes to pop and rock. While his musical abilities are impressive enough, we’re especially excited to have him here because of his inspiring message and life. Tony has been blind and autistic since birth and is a musical savant. He will share his message of believing in yourself, having high hopes, not giving up on your dreams, and that it’s okay to be different.
We did advertise this concert to many local churches, organizations, newspapers, and schools, so we hope to have a good response. Space is limited in the church. The main concert will be at 7:00 P.M. on Wednesday, October 7th. There will be a second concert on Thursday morning, October 8th, after the 9:00 A.M. Mass, to allow our school children to come, but this is also open to the public.
Both concerts are free and open to anyone who would like to come. I would like to thank the Don and Julie Rachel Family, the John and Jean Rivers family, the Frank and Mary Sullivan family, the Tim and Pam Pribyl family, and Maple Lake Lumber, for their generous support to allow us to provide this concert free of charge. Thank you.
If you would like to learn more about Tony Deblois, you can visit his website here. You can also view this YouTube playlist of some of his more popular videos to get a sense of who he is.
I hope to see you a week from today.

Star Staff Reports
BRENTWOOD – The Ohio Valley Conference announced Nov. 19 that University of Tennessee at Martin women’s basketball guard Jasmine Newsome has been named Adidas OVC Co-Player of the Week following her record setting performance against Quinnipiac on Saturday afternoon.
A Millington Central High School product, Newsome needed just 11 points going into Saturday’s matchup against Quinnipiac in the Preseason Women’s National Invitational Tournament to become UT Martin’s second player to reach the illusive 2,000 point plateau. History would not elude the speedy senior as Newsome tallied her 2,000th career point with a three-pointer at the 6:34 mark of the first half. She now joins teammate Heather Butler as the only two players to reach the mark in school basketball history.
Newsome’s historic night was not done however, as the senior carried her team to an overtime victory behind a UT Martin single-game record 44 point performance, including 15 of the team’s 19 points in the overtime frame. Newsome’s 44 point performance surpasses Butler’s previous record of 42 against Tennessee State on Jan. 30, 2010 on the women’s side. Her record night also tied the school single-game record with Okechi Egbe who scored 44 points against Bethel on Nov. 20, 2000.

Terry Webb a remarkable man
I did not know Terry Webb. But I attended a presentation last December in which he dealt with illness.
I was struck by his vivid sense of humor and focus on “things-now,” the immediate. He seemed to me a most remarkable man.

The CW's wasted no time capitalizing on DC Comics' catalogue. Several characters have already appeared on Arrow, and there are more to come. Here's a sneak peek at Oliver Queen and his latest target—Huntress.
The folks behind The CW's new superhero series Arrow have added another geek feather to their casting hat, signing fan favorite Battlestar Galactica and Dollhouse star Tahmoh Penikett. So who's Helo playing?
Jeri Ryan may have fueled fanboy dreams, but Tahmoh Penikett did the same for fangirls (and some fanboys, too). Now the Battlestar Galactica and Dollhouse star will be joining the lovely Ms. Ryan in the upcoming Mortal Kombat digital series.

Walking on the wild side, enduring oneself to become something while at the same time ignoring all that is. There is a goal and that goal must be attained at whatever the cost, whatever the price. The ultimate game is played to win and where is it that we find ourselves? Amidst the turmoil and sorrow, the glee of insanity arises once again from the ashes of it's own destruction. Battling for supremecy, it takes flight to never return this way again. Can owning a religion get any better than this?
Expanding our horizons, we reach a point where the universe ends, only to find more land, more territory in which to fullfill our dreams. Releasing ourselves from the bonds of our whims is nothing short of a miracle and in that miracle life abounds. We hesitate and so become the lost souls seeking and yearning for a better 'hereafter'. There is no time like the present in which to lose ourselves to hopelessness. Eagerly, our destiny beckons us on evermore.
Taking flight, we encompass the entirety of our existence and through our veins life takes purpose and fullfills itself over and over again. Ever higher we yearn and learn realizing that we leave nothing to chance.

The Little Paint Site: A Classic Toyah Camp on the South Llano River, Kimble County, Texas
On behalf of the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), SWCA Environmental Consultants (SWCA) conducted testing and data recovery investigations at the Little Paint site (41KM226), a prehistoric multi-component site in the US 377 right-of-way along the South Llano River in Kimble County, Texas. While the site revealed Archaic and Late Prehistoric components, the earlier components were stratigraphically intermixed. Consequently, data recovery focused almost entirely on a discrete Toyah component, which, based on earlier test excavations conducted in August and September 2006, had previously been determined to be eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places and as a State Archeological Landmark. SWCA performed the investigations under Texas Antiquities Permits 4184 and 4318. Kevin A. Miller served as Principal Investigator.
The excavations recovered approximately 102 m2 of a stratigraphically-discrete Toyah component consisting of rock-lined hearths, Perdiz points, Cliffton points, a bird-bone bead, bone-tempered ceramics, bifaces, scrapers (notably end scrapers on blade-flakes), various informal lithic tools, drills, awls, debitage, and faunal remains. Based on the assemblage, the site is interpreted as a Toyah basecamp as indicated by a diversity of tool forms and site furniture. The component has good integrity, is vertically and horizontally discrete, and contains a substantial amount of archaeological materials. The suite of 16 radiometric dates indicates intermittent Toyah occupations between 240 and 570 years ago, a time range that is generally consistent with recognized span of the Toyah assemblage. The archaeological assemblage and site structure, however, suggests a possible single Toyah occupation.
While not a focal point of the data recovery investigations, the excavations also recovered mixed Archaic components below the Toyah component. Artifacts include diagnostic point styles that indicate Late Archaic to early Late Prehistoric occupations, representing 1,000 to 2,000 years of the regional cultural chronology compressed within a thin stratum. Based on the findings, the depositional conditions below the Toyah component, as was previously determined by the testing data, were found to be generally not conducive to the formation of stratigraphic separation of the successive occupations. This compression resulted in intermixing of components and poor integrity. Below the mixed Archaic zone, deeply buried Middle to Early Archaic deposits were identified. These retained a better potential for significant isolable strata, but these deeper deposits were beyond the project impacts and therefore were not the subject of mitigative efforts. The deeper deposits are preserved by avoidance.
As previously determined and further substantiated by the data recovery investigations, the Little Paint site, because of the Toyah component and perhaps earlier deposits, is eligible for National Register of Historic Places listing under Criterion D, 36 CFR 60.4, and eligible for State Archeological Landmark designation under Criteria 1 and 2 of the Rules of Practice and Procedure for the Antiquities Code of Texas, 13 TAC 26.8. The excavations have mitigated the adverse effects of the US 377 bridge replacement by recovering the vast majority of the Toyah component within the area of potential effect of the roadway undertaking. No further archaeological work is recommended. Portions of the site outside of the right-of-way have not been fully evaluated. The artifacts and records from the project are curated at the Center for Archaeological Studies, Texas State University.
