Man finds a sandbar in the middle of the ocean, and realizes he has seconds to escape. The horde smell filled the air. Not even the harsh wind blew the smell away. The ground seemed to grow thicker and they were finding it extremely difficult. Difficult to navigate where they were and where they were going.
He knew how dangerous this could get. He was praying that this wouldn’t damage the struggling engine. He was terrified if they got stranded, they would be lost forever and never get to see their families ever again. Fred was working hard as he steered the mic in through the beautiful blue waters of the South Pacific. His girlfriends and two of their friends were happily tanning in the hot sun and enjoying the cool breeze of the ocean.
They were having a perfect day and none of them could be happier. But that was when Fred looked up and saw something strange on the horizon. The blue wave seemed to reveal a light, earthy tone right beneath them. He had seen those colors often around sandbars, but those would only appear close to the shore. They were not close to the shore. Read the full story here ▶

The Committee to Protect Journalists highlights the positive changes the Government has made to improve relations with the media and journalists. Also the reforms to the Law of Communication that include the elimination of the Superintendence of Communication.
It’s a 180 degrees twist. The Government of Lenin Moreno moves Ecuador away from the path of media repression undertaken by the former president, Rafael Correa. That’s what the report of the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) said last week.
The Committee stresses that the President has made positive progress such as: marginalizing the regulatory body Superintendency of Information and Communication (Supercom), strive to improve relations with the media. Also encourage investigative journalism and promise to reform the “repressive Organic Law of Communication (LOC), one of the most restrictive in the continent, explains the report.
“The government of President Lenin Moreno has adopted a position dramatically different from that of his predecessor, Rafael Correa, who harshly criticized the press and approved one of the most restrictive media laws in the region,” he says.
According to the Committee, a clear sign of dramatic change in the Ecuadorian media landscape, led by President Moreno, it was the removal from office of former head of Supercom, Carlos Ochoa, for an investigation of his management Gama TV channel.
The former superintendent handled 1,081 cases against the media and journalists. Of them, 675 ended in sanctions, according to figures from Supercom itself. Another example of the 180 degree turn of the Government are the reforms to the LOC, which served to silence and persecute media and journalists in the 10 years of the correísmo.
President Moreno sent this bill, on May 21, which is analyzed in the Assembly, and has 80 modifications to the LOC, such as: eliminating the Supercom, the media lynching and the sanctioning administrative control system to move to a system of protection of rights in which freedom of expression is protected with subsequent responsibility, according to international instruments.
The Committee emphasizes that the Chief Executive apparently recognizes the vital role that free and independent media can play in investigating and uncovering the corruption that occurred in Correistas. It highlights the President’s meetings with local journalists, with Human Rights Watch and the Inter-American Press Association to analyze concerns about press freedom and human rights.
In addition, he points out that the CPJ met in March with the Secretary of Communication, Andrés Michelena, who clarified that the Government’s desire is to guarantee compliance with international regulations on this issue. For the Committee, Ecuador offers a positive example and at the same time a warning to other countries in Latin America and the world that have increased control over media and censorship in the Decade.
On the other hand, journalists and the media remain cautious until Moreno fulfills the promises to reform the LOC, abolish the Supercom. (I)

Looking for some brief but helpful tips to get ready for an upcoming music audition? If so, you can find all of the essential advice below to enlighten yourself on the basics from Day 1 of your preparation to the actual audition. Good Luck!
Know Exactly What is Required
You should thoroughly know the exact requirements for the audition that you are preparing for. When you register, you will be provided with all of the information that you’ll need. It’s extremely vital that you be very familiar with what you’ll need to work on so that you can begin practicing, and go purchase any materials that you may need for the audition. If there is a a specific piece for all, it will most likely be provided. If you are allowed to select your own piece, be sure that it falls within the time constraints and genre requirements that have been listed.
Also note if your audition will take place in front of judges or if you’ll be behind a screen. This will be important when you decide what you’ll be wearing. For those new to auditions, you may need to take some time to get comfortable playing alone as well as with people watching you. More on these things in a bit.
Prepare Your Music & Do Not Procrastinate
This is a brief continuation to a caller’s question that came up on the show yesterday (July 15th). The caller inquired about the distinguishing characteristics between female vs. male preparation to play brass instruments, because there seems to be more of a challenge getting females to play in the brass section.
Since I did not have time to fully answer the caller’s question, I wanted to take the time to address the latter part of the question here, which I believe is a topic that goes deep into the mind of the female adolescent. Speaking from my experience as a Middle School Band Director, the brass instrument is not “what’s hot in the streets” to a 11 or 12 year old young lady. You will not see anyone playing a trombone serenading a couple while the guy proposes in a romantic setting, or a trumpet player dressed in white linen making sultry dance moves in a music video by the latest pop star. These instruments are not traditionally portrayed as being “sexy”.
If you’ve ever been in a school band, you may remember that very first day where the director gives a demonstration of each instrument and explains the importance of its role in the band. During this time, he or she is probably not selling all the instruments equally, because we already know that most of the boys are going to run to the back to play drums, and all the girls to a small, dainty instrument that can fit into their book bag, which is most likely the flute or clarinet. This is, of course, with the exception to those who already have an instrument that an older sibling played or have made up their minds to be the next Freddie Hubbard. Besides, whoever said it’s not cool to lug a tenor sax case through the halls and down the block? To the average young lady joining band, it’s more about convenience, or being “cute”. To the director, it’s about building and maintaining a balanced band program.
By no means do I say these things to bash on you young ladies. Believe me, we are just excited that you have decided to give the band a shot. I say these things to encourage you to go against the grain, if you wish to play an instrument in a male-dominated section. You have the right to play the instrument that you desire. I’m always impressed to see a young lady playing bari sax or tuba, and they are usually very good players. Think about the future opportunities you’ll experience traveling, meeting new people, and other advantages you’ll have being an elite musician playing an “uncommon instrument”.
Being different is a gift with which we are all born. Don’t misuse it by trying to fit in.

In this paper, we present Smart Material Aided Architectural Design (SMAAD), the design technique to realize intuitive shape modelling with synchronizing a tangible user interface (TUI) and a 3D CAD system. To realize SMAAD, we first implemented SMAAD Surface, the TUI that imitates the free-form surface. The TUI is a fabric device, in which flex sensors and actuators (shape memory alloys) are embedded. As a designer changes the textile shape using his/her hands, its surface data will be sent to the CAD system through the sensor and a free-form surface can be created in the PC. The operation in the opposite direction is also possible, in which the CAD surface data is sent to the fabric device to dynamically change its shape. SMAAD releases architectural designers from complex GUI operations and visual programming and enables digital model creation through natural manual operations for physical models.

Brigham Young Barn

Salt Lake City, UT 84108

Included in admission
The Brigham Young Barn is a representational building from the 1860's. This barn is representative of farm barns of the pioneer era. The Brigham Young farm's 800 acres was large for its day. It required a large force of hired hands, teams, wagons, and other equipment to operate. Along with the farm home, the barn was a focal point of farm activities, where horses and mules were harnessed for plowing, tilling, and other work. Harnesses and other tack were repaired there and livestock feeds were stored in the barn. Milking of the dairy herd took place here, as did the care of new-born calves, lambs, foals and goats.

Criticism of Hurston’s work and why?
The misinterpretation of Hurston’s intent in her writing of TWEG was due to the personal biases of both African American males and Anglo-Saxon critics who were the the majority of perspectives in the literacy world during 1937 and 1938.
African American male criticism
Said Hurston uses minstrel technique (plays to white audience, due to criticism of whites) vouluntarily
Felt prose cloacked in facile sensuality that has dogged Negro expression
Depicts AA in pendulum in which white ppl like to see AA btw laughter and tears
Believed novel directed toward whites
Plot undermines negro experience as “quaint”.
Called the work social document fiction and motive fiction
Uses pseudo-primitive (attempt to be precivilized)
Anglo-Saxon point of view
Calls into question Eatonville due to black ownership
Sees Jody as unusual Negro go-getter
Saw as humerous
Saw Jody as rewarding
Sees Tea-Cake as shiftless and warm-blooded gambler
Saw depicts of Negro speech as accurate
Praises for no expression of racial frustration
See’s story as simple and pretentious
Sees Janie’s story as beautiful
Refers to AA as uncivilized (“everyone not so civilized to have a capacity for glory)
Suggests Janie is unsophistocated (“How different the story would have been if a sophisticated woman stood, at 40, in Janie's shoes, scores of novels already testify!”)
Too prettily worded
Calls AA simplistic
AA not creative and self concious
Says Hurston doesn’t rely on wit and feeling in TEWG
Sees as humorous
Says book isnt as full blown and striking as other books: homely language
Views of Zora Neal Hurston
Lamented for loss of AA expression wanted to be ancestral loud speaker.
She was tenatious in education and strong minded
Raised in Eatonville first all black town raised to see AA culture as beautiful
Felt that AA culture shouldn’t be compared to that of Anglo-Saxon culture
Wouldn’t conform no matter what (“ I mean to live and die by my own mind and if this is cowardly then I am a coward”)
Commands black vernacular and traditions
Felt black culture was taught as inferior by Anglo-Saxon culture
Black press attacked her on allogations
Unpredictable left for errand wouldn’t see for days
Married 3 times
Danced between both cultures
Hometown lyrie Hurston’s ability to dance between cultures.
Hurston and Book similarities and pupose of TEWG
Hurston used her characteristics and beliefs to show an example of black culture through her story and be used as a tribute to AA culture and the effeminate struggle AA women.
Janie and Hurtson
Married 3 times
Easily acquired male attention
People (Mrs. Turner) approached her and tried to set her up with lighter skinned men or white men
Distaste for people who feel that white company is an honor or seen as superior.

Appartamento Il Casino has been launched by Globe Holdings, a development of new apartments incorporated into a landmark heritage building on a vibrant, urban street corner.
The 31 new apartments have been designed by Studio Pacific Architecture to compliment the character and integrity of this unique building and create something a little different from most contemporary inner city apartment blocks, something with soul.
The new structure will honour the character and integrity of the historic Il Casino building and is articulated into three vertical zones, with the old Il Casino building forming the base of two of the buildings. Each of the three zones is subtly different; distinct in its own right, yet similar enough overall to read as one cohesive structure. Each incorporates similar materials, scale and detailing such as the delicately coloured glass, opaque on the southernmost building, while to the north it is translucent.
The design reveals the inherent structure of the building and the integrity of the original materials. Materials are left in their natural state, not covered up. The natural colours and textures of the building materials are respected. The interior contains exposed concrete finishes, a mixture of old and new, surfaces left comparatively raw, solid concrete walls and floor, timber posts, a rich combination of finely machined details and those that are more robust.
The project is currently being marketed and construction is due to commence later this year. Studio Pacific Architecture is currently undertaking construction documentation for the project.

Baked Custard Recipe
A smooth, creamy and rich custard recipe that doesn't use a grain of sugar?
There’s no sugar at all in this old baked custard recipe.
I found this particular recipe in a cookbook that was published in 1918.
What You’ll Need:
- 2 or 3 eggs, beaten slightly
- 1/4 cup of honey
- 2 cups of scalded skim milk
- 1/3 teaspoon of either nutmeg or cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon of salt
Baked Custard Instructions:
- Thoroughly mix all of the ingredients, and pour into custard cups.
- Bake the custard cups set in a pan of hot water (the water should be at about the same level as the custard in the cups).
- This old recipe doesn’t say how long or at what temperature to cook the custard, but borrowing from other custard recipes, 350 degrees F for 25 – 30 minutes should be close to correct.

So instead of running in the cold I'd much rather run in warmer weather. And soccer's done for the year. I'll be getting a gym membership within the week to keep me going for the winter.

Let’s talk about our favorite game of Sudoku. A lot of people love playing the game almost everyday. For someone like me solving a Sudoku puzzle everyday is part of my routine. Sudoku is a fun game which can help you improve your memory as well. Its a very popular puzzle game and offers various forms of difficulties. So let’s look at some Sudoku apps which all of us can enjoy on our Windows 10 devices.
Below are Sudoku apps for Windows 10.
Let’s start with the first Sudoku puzzle game app called Sudoku Pro. This game app has a nice interface and offers you 5 game modes which are easy, medium, hard, hyperSudoku and expert. It also offers you a tutorial at the beginning of the game. The app also offers you hints, undo, redo, etc. options during the game. You can also change the background of the game window to something nice as can be seen in the above screenshot. The games also have a draft mode to help you out.
This Sudoku app is brought to you by Microsoft with 5 difficulty levels very easy, easy, medium, hard, and expert. The Microsoft Sudoku game interface is pretty simple and provides you with other features like daily challenges, leaderboards, statistics, tutorial, Xbox integration, etc. Also, you get hints at places you are stuck, shows duplicate values or incorrect values, etc. There is also a notes section where you can make notes about the puzzle.
Sudoku Mix offers you regular Sudoku puzzle as well as Sudoku puzzles with some variations in them. As you can see in the above screenshot, apart from the regular Sudoku puzzle you also have:
- The bonus levels,
- Quick Sudoku with 6 X 6 blocks of puzzle,

Hints are offered for times when you are stuck. The interface is nice but is ad supported.
Sudoku+ HD is another Sudoku puzzle game app which lets you play this game easily. The interface is pretty neat and does not have any ads on it which is a welcome thing. Just launch the app and choose from 4 difficulty levels of very simple, easy, medium and hard. Selecting a level immediately takes you to the puzzle game window, which can be seen in the screenshot above. The garbage bin icon will remove any number you entered by mistake. The number boxes below the actual numbers is for draft option. You will also see a timer running at the bottom right of the window to let you know how much time you took to complete the puzzle.
Sudoku free also offers you Sudoku puzzle games with four difficulty levels which are easy, normal, hard, and evil. As you can see in the above screenshot the app is ad supported but it is not very distracting. The regular options are also available like hints, undo, redo, validate, lock mode, draft mode, at the top of the puzzle board.
Some nice features of this game app:
- Timer to let you know how much time you took to complete a puzzle.

The Eisner Awards have come and gone, but I'm happy to say that the recipients of the Bill Finger Award for Achievement in Comic Book Writing and the Hall of Fame Class of 2010 made me smile as it was coming up live on Newsarama. I figure I'd give a brief history lesson here for each of the inductees.
The Bill Finger Award for Achievement in Comic Book Writing is given yearly to two writers - one living and one deceased -in honor of the late, great Bill Finger - more on him tomorrow.
The first recipient of the Bill Finger Award this year was the late Otto Binder, and chances are you've never heard of him. Binder was the lead writer of Captain Marvel Adventures in the Golden Age, and of course, as I've said many times on this blog before, Captain Marvel was quite probably the most successful property of the Golden Age. Binder wrote over half of the entire Marvel Family saga, and created a lot of the famous Marvel Family characters, such as Mary Marvel, Uncle Dudley, Tawky Tawny, Black Adam, and Mr. Mind. That also makes him the writer of the original "Monster Society of Evil" saga, which is the first long-running storyline in comic books. There weren't many properties back then with such a diverse world - only Carl Barks' work on Donald Duck was as prolific.
Later on, Binder wrote Superman and created, among other things, Jimmy Olsen's signal watch, Lucy Lane, Krypto the Superdog, and, oh yeah - Supergirl.
Otto Binder was one of the true most influential forces in comics.
Gary Friedrich wrote a bunch of comics and even won an Alley Award for his work on Sgt. Rock and the Howling Commandos! But he'd probably be best known (as well known as a Bill Finger Award recipient could be, at least) as one of the co-creators of Ghost Rider. Though there's some disagreement as to who between him and Mike Ploog actually came up with the idea of the flaming skull head, Ghost Rider was a huge property in the 70s and 90s - when it even had spinoffs such as Johnny Blaze's own series. Only someone who grew up in the 70s can tell me for sure how huge Ghost Rider actually was. How about it, folks? (That's an invitation to leave a comment.)
Congratulations to Binder and Friedrich for well-deserved recognition!
The Hall of Fame Class of 2010 was headlined by two judges' choice awards. The first one was Burne Hogarth, known mainly for his work on the Tarzan newspaper strip of the Golden Age:
As well as for his very influential handbook, Dynamic Figure Drawing:
The other judges' choice for the Hall of Fame this year was Bob Montana, which made me wonder what in the world took so long? Bob Montana was the creator of Archie.
And I know Archie tends to get a bad rap, like it's not "really" comics, or it's too "stupid," or whatever, but the plain and simple fact is that Archie Comics has entertained people of all ages for the last seventy years while remaining largely unchanged. It's gone through a bunch of surface changes, but the storytelling style and general effect is the same as it was when Bob Montana was drawing it! Who else can say that? It's an achievement is what it is.
The awards then moved on to those elected into the Hall of Fame this year. The first one elected was Steve Gerber, master writer of a bunch of cult hits, most notably Howard the Duck, which is much, much better than its movie version. It's subversive and fun, and Gerber was treated for it in such a way that would actually make him eligible for the Finger Award. Howard the Duck had such a satirical bite and a strong cult following that he was actually a mock candidate in the 1976 Presidential Elections - the first after Watergate.
Here's a video of his campaign press kit.
The second elected inductee was someone who means a lot to me, and that's Dick Giordano. I said everything I could about Giordano in my eulogy for him here, so I won't repeat it. Instead, I'll just repost what I've always thought was the perfect splash page.
The third elected inductee was Michael Kaluta, a very elaborate comics artist who isn't as prolific as some of these other inductees, but yes, his work is gorgeous. He's known for his cover work, as well as his work on some 70s horror titles. (Neil Gaiman fans will be interested to know that he created Eve, the horror comic host who became a regular Sandman character.) Still, he's likely best known for his work on The Shadow, reviving the pulp hero for DC Comics in the 70s and Marvel Comics in the 80s.
The final elected inductee was Mort Weisinger, who co-created both Aquaman and Green Arrow, but is most well-known for being the main editor of the Superman comics at the time Otto Binder was writing it. His tenure as editor saw the introduction of many concepts (many of them by Otto Binder), including Supergirl, Krypto, the Phantom Zone, and the Legion of Super-Heroes.
It is under the editorial tenure of Weisinger that the trappings that made Superman one of my favorite superheroes emerged. For someone like me, who grew up on John Byrne's very serious take on Superman (where Superman had telekinetic powers when he was flying, and he needed an oxygen mask in space), discovering the Silver Age version was like a doorway into a much greater fantasy land. Superman could fly in space! He had all these friends who could fly in space! He could create robots! He had a home in the Arctic that he could open with a big giant key! He had a city in a bottle! He had a pet dog who could also fly! Weisinger's run on Superman always was a highlight for me - Superhero comics should be fun, and I'll always thank Binder and Weisinger for all these rich concepts that made it so that Superman was more than just a guy who could punch really hard. It was evocative of a very strong sense of wonder.
CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE INDUCTEES AND AWARDEES!

Margaret was lovely. Feel like there is some light at the end of the tunnel after a chat with her
Margaret is a lovely lady and seems very insightful. I enjoyed our reading. I was hoping for a bit more detail but otherwise very good.
I asked for a general reading and Margaret picked up on the historic issues and how they are turning now at last. This I know to be consistent as I called Margaret a year ago and was about to embark on the very historic issues that are hopefully ending now. Lovely lady very gifted.
Learned a lot
Wish she could have typed faster so I could have more time to chat
Finally, the truth. When I ask about relationships most readers think I want to hear that he loves me and that it’s the right thing. I don’t. I want the truth. Thank you.
A nice lady/a good first reading with Margaret...
Give this lady a try. She's very positive and makes you feel at ease....which is what we all need at this time. Thanks again Margaret, M.
I honestly don't know if this is real or not but I do know that she sounded EXACTLY like the person I was contacting when she gave me messages from them. As in down to attitudes and phrasing and word use and I hadn't told her anything about how the person felt or spoke about things. But she was bang on. Felt like I was talking to my loved one. Before the reading I would have told you 100% these things are fake. Now I am not sure. I feel much better than I did before the reading anyway.

Jinzhou construction and installation company needs an electric heating hot water 7 ton high efficiency boiler house construction, after screening and comparison of various brand boiler industry, our excellent results in the cleaning of the boiler industry has been attracted to each other, in mid-2016, the Jinzhou construction and installation the company I signed with an electric heating pressure hot water boiler.
Master these techniques can prolong the life of your 7 ton high efficiency boiler low nitrogen, is determined not to look at it: low-nitrogen boiler is in obvious advantages on the basis of environmental policy and saving money on, are widely used. But there are many business units are new low nitrogen boiler, for how to operate properly and prolong the life of the boiler, and not very good grasp. Fast boiler professional production of low nitrogen boiler, summarizes the following three extend boiler life low nitrogen tips to help users better operating low nitrogen boiler. 1, low nitrogen good power boiler inspection work is the driving force of energy in industrial production, before use, you must first do a good job security and troubleshooting, power checks and maintenance work, in order to ensure the safety of high-speed operation and boiler operator; in addition , but also on the part of a full range of equipment and inspection work, to make the life of low nitrogen boiler becomes longer. 2, the holding device periodically to check whether dried and smoke when a low nitrogen boiler tube patency after completion, the operator should be promptly cut off the power, and when the apparatus until the temperature drops, dust and dirt need to clean the housing, but also to boiler placed in a dry and ventilated place, the next device in order to ensure the normally open, secondly, due to the low nitrogen boiler exhaust gas is carried out primarily by the threaded pipe, so that the operator using this device, after completion, then periodically cleaning the smoke pipe, to avoid being blocked by dust and affect their effectiveness. 3, regularly adding parts in time to make the right judgments and processing lubricants low nitrogen boiler in the low load operation, the supervisory inspector must concentrate on strengthening the analysis of each instrument, abnormal situation, in order to ensure the boiler normal operation and prolong its service life; in addition, also regularly add the oil to low nitrogen in various parts of the boiler, the boiler can reduce the running resistance, improve production efficiency.
Improve the thermal efficiency of gas steam 7 ton high efficiency boiler steam boiler to improve the thermal efficiency of gas is a problem many users are taken, I believe this issue is the direction of each used in the production of various types of gas steam boiler manufacturers have been in the study. Many users at the time of the gas-steam oven operates, often in the actual production process, we found some new problems, but all the problems, the most vexing is the high temperature exhaust gas steam boilers, thermal efficiency than low phenomenon that a serious impact on our work, then how should we do to improve the thermal efficiency of it? need to know this is the best way to meet the low-temperature properties of gas and steam comes as synthetic gas steam. However, the vast majority of synthetic gas and steam biphenyls, benzene derivatives of both components of the complex, or a vapor of volatiles has strong carcinogenicity, it is strongly recommended that the client select the type of mineral oil vapor product gas. Second, gas and steam products to meet the low temperature performance process, but also have a relatively high flash point required. In general, gas steam engineers suggest, low temperature gas steam flash point not lower than the opening 200 ℃. After a professional manufacturer of continuous research and improvement of its equipment, in order to improve its thermal efficiency was found to be increased tail gas steam boiler heating surface of, say, air preheater and economizer. But when organic heat carrier furnace return temperature is high, you can not set the economizer, air preheater can only be set to alleviate the situation. So if no gas steam boiler and other heating systems for low temperature heat exchanger, then the only way to improve the energy efficiency is adding air preheater. After adding air preheater can be a corresponding increase in gas flow rate of steam, gas steam boiler in order to ensure safe, reliable and stable work, the thermal efficiency of gas-steam boiler plant will be a corresponding with the increase.
WNS 1 ton steam 7 ton high efficiency boiler steam electric boiler price is based on the number of horizontal gas-based, but some parts of the operating costs for the gas business is far greater than the cost of electricity, which requires companies according to their current form Decided. Especially for natural gas is also used in some places it can also be electricity, which requires companies to consider operating costs between the different fuels. Recently, there is a business side to things faster electric steam boiler boiler Advisory procurement, the situation is also encountered above mentioned, there can be used either electricity gas. Fast boiler understand the actual situation of the enterprise, the accounting of the business more cost effective electricity or steam boiler. Drawn is that the enterprise with electric steam boilers that meet one ton of production. The current price of the boiler model is about 100,000.

U.S. lawmakers want their counterparts in the European Parliament to back away from a resolution that would split up Google by separating search engines from other online services.
U.S. lawmakers got a report card on Friday: they've been graded by the Electronic Frontier Foundation and other groups on whether they are effectively reining in the National Security Agency's surveillance programs.
The U.S. House of Representatives has voted to limit the National Security Agency's ability to search U.S. records, after a similar provision was stripped out of a bill intended to rein in the agency.
The U.S. House of Representatives has approved a bill that would limit the National Security Agency's bulk collection of domestic phone records, even as several civil liberties and tech groups withdrew their support after last-minute changes.
A U.S. House of Representatives committee has taken a major step toward outlawing the NSA's controversial bulk collection of telephone and other business records generated by U.S. residents.

MNB links lender preferences to outlays supporting energy-efficient homes
The National Bank of Hungary (MNB) will offer Hungarian lenders preferences on capital requirements linked to lending for energy-efficient homes, deputy governor Csaba Kandrács told Hungarian news agency MTI on Monday.
The preferences, linked to the construction of energy-efficient homes and renovations boosting energy efficiency, will be in effect between January 1, 2020, and December 31, 2023, Kandrács said. A decision on whether to extend the program will be taken after an assessment at the end of the period, he added.
Retail borrowers could enjoy interest rate preferences for such loans, he said.
MNB is also starting consultations on support for the issue of "green bonds", he added.
Kandrács noted that the MNB had launched its Green Program to boost the banking sectorʼs support for environmental sustainability in February.

Paris motor show, one of the most important events of the industry, is preparing to open its doors to visitors.
Premieres production cars, concept cars, new models brands of class “luxury”.
But attention – the sector that produces for those who are called “middle class”.
A favorite of fashionistas, “MINI” , completely rethought the command “BMW” a few years ago, is “MINI hatchback”.
For “MINI”, this model is a revolution in its 55-year history.
Says the editor of the magazine “WHATCAR?” Jim Holder:
“Five-door “MINI” is not only a revolution, it is the requirement of day, and the requirement of the environment, and following current trends.
A car today should be comfortable, compact, possess numerous options and be comfortable for the driver and passengers. MINI – completely meets these requirements.”
But the Prime Minister “DS” from “Citroen”.
The car is a myth.
At the time drove de Gaulle and Gagarin.
Today, citroën revived its DS.
And “goddess” acquired a futuristic line.
But not only that. The instance of “Haute couture” of the automotive industry.
There are even crystals from Swarovski.
“Today, Citroen is trying to establish itself in the market upper price range, offering cars of a class “premium”. And there is a luxury in the eyes of French, that is carried to its highest degree of perfection and sophistication. I think it is a reasonable way for manufacturers,” says Jim holder.
And with “Jaguar” – the movement in the opposite direction: while retaining all the inherent sports car traits, the current model will be sold at an extremely competitive price – 35 000 Euro.
Given the economical engine and comfortable environment for insurance, it is possible that it will be bought for the needs of the employees of a large Corporation.
“In this case, although the opponents are not named, but they are assumed, judging by the price range: this is a 3 series BMW and Mercedes C-Class,” says Jim holder.
“Peugeot”, things which are far from brilliant, shows a concept car.
Hybrid engine, sporty appearance, finishing in the style of hi-tech, modern design and expert engineering solutions so one can summarize the experience of the model “Assalt”.
Review of Steve Fowler, editor of the magazine “AUTOEXPRESS”:
Peugeot does the incredibly difficult task – to convince consumers that French products are better than German ( I’m talking about “Volkswagen”).
They start their rematch together with the car price range”.
A new model for “land Rover”.
Discovery in sports equipment.
It is to be issued with both petrol and diesel engine.
As the engineers of the concern, the new model “land Rover” combines all the advantages of a sports car.
And again – Jim holder:
“Design is beyond praise, it is different from other vehicles of this type, “land Rover” offered a challenge for other proizvoditeley, is a new type of SUV. More refined, with improved finish and attention to detail.”
And new “Toyota”.
The FT-1 sports car, which is only available in a few instances.
But the previous model from the company was designed primarily for the domestic market, it was created with the expectation of an aging Japanese population, has a slightly lower landing and other facilities that should be appreciated by passengers and drivers.
The application is a taxi.

Another flower?! Yes, another flower. I hope you’re not tired of flowers because this one is fun and quick. I’m calling this the “shabby chic” flower. I wikipedia-ed “shabby chic,” which, despite saying it referred to a style of interior design (not handmade baby clothes!), said: a soft, minimalistic, and feminine feel is emphasized. I think that describes this flower pretty well.
You will need:
- prewashed, plain onesie
- fabric scraps (I used two different fabrics for added texture)
- sewing machine
- needle and thread
- coordinating button
- fray check
- fabric scissors
How to do it:
With my fabric scissors, I cut out three different-sized circles (small-medium-large) from the two different fabrics. I was not very specific or neat doing this. Remember the ‘shabby’ is an important part of ‘shabby chic.’ Make sure your smallest circles are not exactly the same size, your mediums are not exactly the same size, and your larges are, also, not the same size. When you layer your circles largest to smallest, they will make a bulls-eye pattern.
I layered the two large circles and using my sewing machine, sewed in a circle, securing them together.
Then I added the two medium circles on top, sewed in a circle, securing all four layers together.
Then I added the last two circles, this time sewing in a cross shape.
I suppose you could have been sewing these to your onesie the entire time, but I didn’t do that until this point in time.
Important note: The fabrics I chose will fray if the edges aren’t finished. A little fray gives this flower its shabby chic, so I needed some fray. So I took my hand and smushed and wiggled and tried to fray my flower. Then I added fray check around the edges to contain the rest of the fray.
Then I hand-sewed my button on top. Voila! Now you have a Shabby Chic Flower. Or should I say a Shabby Chic fleur?

Journaling can be a powerful tool to assist people with enhancing their mental health. Whether you are a constant journal writer or never given it a go, journaling to better mental health could change your life.
I am not a writer
Often perfectionism is the enemy of writing a journal. What if it is not good enough’? Importantly, it is often the process of journaling (as opposed to some outcome) that is of the greatest value. Rather than think you have to write a piece of elegant prose that will stand the test of time, simply expressing about your life enhances your capacity to start processing these elements and to begin getting unstuck and moving forward in your life.
A journal can also be a very personal tool, and as such writing it thinking that it is going to be read by someone else often limits the value of the experience. It is like your thoughts and feelings – you only have to share what you choose to. With a journal, allowing yourself to explore deeply personal topics can be the source of the greatest value in the process.
I don’t know where to start
Starting can be as simple as allocating a few minutes a day (or every other day) to actively engage with journaling. There is no ‘right way’ to do it – for example it doesn’t have to start off with “Dear Diary”. You can brainstorm your thoughts and processes on a simple notepad, or you can purchase a fancy notebook and write away.
There are many Gratitude journals with prompts available in bookstores and stationery stores if this would work for you. How you work through it is entirely up to you. There are many different ways to journal, and there is no right or wrong way, just find a way that works for you.
There is also no ‘law’ that says how often you need to journal. For some people, journaling every day is highly valuable. For others, journaling as a response to being stuck or ‘big life moments’ can be enough. It is your journal, create whatever habit is right for you.
What do I write about?
Anything that you feel or think is worthwhile putting down. From those thoughts that keep you awake at 3 am in the morning, to minute experiences that you enjoyed throughout the day. Anything is valuable if it has value or meaning to you.
Here are some type of writing that can help with your mental health:
- The brain dump entry
- The emotional excavation entry
- The gratitude entry
- The lessons learned entry
- The credit taken entry
- The mixed lollies approach (my favourite!)
The brain dump entry
This is just a simple ‘get it out of your head’ approach. Often things that worry us seem so huge when they are in our heads. However writing them down often allows us to put into words what we are experiencing, which is a powerful neurological tool to moving forward. As we create the language for what is troubling us, often it allows us to see it differently, or even just more specifically, and create new solutions. Often writing it down allows you to break it down – big problems can be reduced to smaller ones that you may be more comfortable in tackling.
The emotional excavation entry
This is a valuable tool if used correctly. The idea is to note the emotional spaces you were in at particular times, and what triggered them. “When X did Y, I felt Z’. This is not an invitation to imagine where it came from – this is highly unhelpful, as it often locks in beliefs about your ability to respond differently if the emotions you create now are allowed to be tied to specific events (“I react like this because of what happened when I was 7”).
Instead, it is a chance to become more aware of the emotions that you experience and what actions of yourself and others triggered them.
The gratitude entry
This is probably the most commonly used journal to help people’s mental health. It is based on simply taking time to reflect on the positive events, experiences and moments from the day. By writing them down, we switch on different parts of our brain, release different neurotransmitters and can induce more positive physical and mental states as a result.
For example, people who wrote in a Gratitude Journal weekly for 10 weeks or daily for two weeks experienced more gratitude, positive moods, and optimism about the future, as well as better sleep, compared to those who journaled about hassles or their daily life.
Emmons, R. A., & McCullough, M. E. (2003). Counting blessings versus burdens: An experimental investigation of gratitude and subjective well-being in daily life. Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 84(2), 377-389.
Taking a few minutes at the end of the day to remember the positive things that have happened during the day can significantly shift mood and remind us of the ‘good’ amongst all the challenges and problems that we dealt with.
Check here link for some further inspiration.
The lessons learned entry
Sometimes it is valuable to reflect on the day and to ask yourself ‘what did I learn’? Often this helps us shift from shame and guilt about events to set ourselves up to reflect on events that perhaps kept us stuck as opportunities to learn.
The benefit of this type of journal entry is that it puts you in ‘observer mode’ on what happened, and allows you to experiment mentally with other approaches.
The next step is to identify from what you have learned ‘what I could do differently’. A great prompt is to write “when I next face (the trigger), I will actively choose to respond with (action) as an experiment. “
The credit taking entry
This is such an important addition to any journal. Understanding that you are not only a ‘victim’ of circumstance, the process of identifying 3 things every day you can take credit for can increase a person’s sense of empowerment to act, give them a feeling of increased control on their experience and allow them to build the capability to recognise good things that they do in the world. For some clients this may start with ‘I got out of bed today’ or ‘I said hello to three new people’. Over time, as you recognise the way that you are taking steps to improve your life, you are more encouraged to take actions and understand your impact on your own experience.
The mixed lollies journal approach
This is my favourite approach to journaling, as it is as flexible as your experience. Consider this as an approach:
- Start with any brain dump and emotional excavation that is required from your day.
- Next write 3 things you are grateful for
- Now at least one thing you learned today
- Then three things you take credit for.
Doing this as a process allows you to get the best out of each element of the process, and also shows you where additional time or effort may be needed to help you get unstuck. For example, if you are struggling to find gratitude, or perhaps can’t think of something to take credit for, it can invite you to think more about those things in coming days.
Below are a few links that are worth browsing. Hopefully you may find something that resonates and helps you start (or continue) journaling and help with your mental wellbeing.

Published September 20, 2022
What is a blessing? Do you have to believe to receive one? Can you doubt while you pray? And can you extend grace to others while still desperately in need of it yourself?
Through the heartfelt, frank, and sincere stories of her unique ministry, Dannhauser offers glimpses into the tender, holy, and sometimes hilarious moments of sidewalk prayers. With a potent blend of reverence and irreverence, as well as insights from Christian scriptures, she delves into the power that ancient ideas – blessing, forgiveness, miracles, and prayer – hold in a disenchanted world. For people of Christian faith, other faiths, or no faith at all, having spiritual conversations, even awkward ones with strangers on the street, can help us face our vulnerability, where we may discover a grace sufficient for all.
Ask Me For a Blessing (You Know You Need One) is in Publishers Weekly 2022 Holiday Gift Guide!
Praise for Ask Me for a Blessing (You Know You Need One)
“What does blessing mean in the dirty, busy streets of a city? What does it mean for believers and nonbelievers, for the suffering and foolish and angry and afraid? In this beautifully real book, Adrian Dannhauser shows how the hands-on practice of public blessing invites everyone to see, to desire, and to become more.”
—Sara Miles, author of City of God: Faith in the Streets and Take This Bread: A Radical Conversion
“If you’re confused about what a blessing is and does, it’s probably for good reason. These days, the word blessing is often reduced to a description of material wealth, cultural privilege, or just good luck. Got a new car for Christmas? You’re #blessed. Celebrating thirty years of marriage? Well, then, count your #blessings. Adrian Dannhauser knows that sacred speech and spiritual conversations are too important to be handled without care. She understands that a blessing is more life-giving and more life-saving than its popular usage. Dannhauser writes as someone who has spent years standing on the sidewalk of our culture, whispering good news to passing pedestrians. Ask Me for a Blessing is a much-needed renovation project for important spiritual ideas—blessing, yes, but also forgiveness, redemption, prayer, and even grace. What a gift!”
—Jonathan Merritt, contributing writer for The Atlantic and author of Learning to Speak God from Scratch
“Adrian Dannhauser removes the hashtag from the word blessing and returns all the grace, vulnerability, and love that a true blessing conveys. A nourishing book for everyone hungering for spiritual connection.”
—Sophfronia Scott, author of The Seeker and the Monk: Everyday Conversations with Thomas Merton
“Beautifully written, unabashedly honest, Ask Me for a Blessing is a refreshingly humble reflection on the soul’s ache for meaning. Like a late-night confessional among close friends, Adrian Dannhauser offers an intimate, compassionate, luminous reflection on the inner anxieties and struggles we all carry. I recommend this book to anyone seeking wisdom on the spiritual journey.”
—Mark Yaconelli, author of Between the Listening and the Telling: How Stories Can Save Us
“Imagine walking down a busy New York sidewalk. You see a blackboard that says ‘Ask Me for a Blessing.’ Curious, you stop. A warm-hearted and utterly approachable woman in a clergy collar listens to you and prays for you. You’re so intrigued, you want to learn more, so you set up a lunch meeting. This book is like that conversation over lunch. You’ll be (wait for it) blessed!”
—Brian McLaren, author of many books, including Do I Stay Christian?
“The world is starved for kindness. People are yearning to be heard. And the bulk of this population is not behind stained glass—they are in the streets. Through this beautiful book, we stand with Rev. Adrian Dannhauser as she courageously holds space in that pain, teaching us how to be present, vulnerable, and, most of all, a blessing.”
—Rev. Susan Sparks, preacher, comedian, and author of Laugh Your Way to Grace

It’s not all that often that fans get to see photos of Kandi Burruss and her stepdaughter, Kaela, but the reality star shared the sweetest snap to celebrate Kaela’s 23rd birthday on June 17!
Kandi Burruss has a special relationship with her husband, Todd Tucker’s, daughter from a previous relationship, Kaela Tucker, and she proved it by showering the 23-year-old with love on her birthday, June 17. After sending Kaela a happy birthday message, she posted a sweet photo with her, and in the pic, they’re adorably being photobombed by Kandi and Todd’s three-year-old son, Ace. “One time for the Birthday Girl!” Kandi captioned the pic. “Ace refused to let us take this pic with just Kaela & I. #Funtimes.”
In the pic, Kaela looked so grown up and gorgeous in a gold fringed jumpsuit, while Kandi was stunning in her form-fitting, floral dress, which showed off some perky cleavage! Earlier in the day, the Xscape singer gushed over Kaela in another post, where she wrote, “I can’t believe you’re 23 already. Time is flying! I pray that this year is the year all your dreams start to manifest. Make this next year your best year! Love you! Give her some birthday love y’all.”
In addition to Kaela and Ace, Kandi also has another daughter, Riley, 16, from a previous relationship. In the past, she’s been criticized for sharing photos of Riley and Ace, while seemingly leaving Kaela out. However, she has made sure to shut down the negativity.
“I hate when y’all do that,” Kandi wrote in 2018, after a fan asked why Kaela was “left out” of a family outing. “She is fine. She went to see her mom in New York and that’s the only reason why she wasn’t at the concert if you must know.”

Eugenie,made our visit to Versailles so easy and special. We took the metro and train and went to the front of the long line. Her personalized tour was filled both with interesting facts and stories that we almost did not notice the enormous crowds. She was both professional and warm. The tour of the Eiffel tour was also made easy. She not only got us the tickets but timed our tour just right at the end of the day reducing the wait time to get to the top. We could not have done our trip without her.

Despite the bizarre title, Byzantium .00AD is set neither in a non-existent year zero nor in something-hundred; it is, in fact, a speculative history of the three occupants of the Byzantine imperial throne during the 960s AD: the drunken and ineffectual Romanus II, the ascetic but too trusting Nicephorus Phocas, and the rather more unbending John Tzimisces. The latter two began as generals in the service of the first, and ascended the throne by successively marrying Romanus's widow Theophano.
The scheming empress assumes, in Anastasia Revi's adaptation (from a Greek novel, a Greek play, a clutch of Yeats poems and the Orthodox Book of Psalms!), a similar status to that of Livia in Robert Graves's Claudius books. Unfortunately, Revi has not quite Graves and Jack Pulman's skills as a writer and adapter... nor those of Herbert Wise, who directed the 1970s television version thereof... nor those of Siân Phillips, who played Livia in it. Yes, this is one of those affairs in which one person presents herself starring in her own production of her own adaptation. No matter that Revi is one of three actresses playing Theophano at various ages; she sells her Anglo-Greek production short both as an actor and a director. This is most apparent in her scenes with Stamos Fafalios as Nicephorus: Revi over-melodramatic (and entirely inconsistent with her younger and older "selves", Elizabeth Jardine and Mary Cunningham), Fafalios sorely underplaying even by the dispassionate standards of his character.
Revi's direction is a matter of manoeuvring her actors around the stage rather than working with them to establish collective mood and individual nuance. The actors are left largely to fend for themselves in performance, which few apart from Cunningham and Christos Lyngas as Tzimisces manage with much success. Unfortunately, the acoustics of the Union Chapel also work against the company; it is a beautiful space, wholly appropriate for the atmosphere of ecclesiastical imperium which the production requires, but the words of the more heavily accented cast members, and of anyone speaking at the same time as background music or sound effects, become lost in reverberation. The music itself is largely a kind of liturgical trip-hop – chanting underlaid by beats (although Nick Cave makes a fleeting appearance) – and, together with solid-colour costumes, self-conscious choreography and a narrator who throws pointless and ludicrous shapes, contributes to the overall impression of a rather dippy New Age blend of theatrical exotica for its own sake.

What Is DC Coupled Battery Storage?
In a DC-coupled system, Direct Current from your solar panels goes to a charge controller that is connected to the battery system.
This means that any energy generated by your solar panels will be converted only once into AC power, ensuring greater efficiency.
Additionally, this type of system is ideal for those with time-of-use (TOU) rates, as you can store solar power generated during off-peak hours to use during peak times – when energy rates are higher.
DC Coupled Battery Storage System
The components that make up a DC Coupled Battery Storage System are:
- Solar panels/PV array
- Multimode inverter
- Payback meter
- Batteries/Energy storage
- Off-grid cut off switch
- The national grid
Solar panels/PV array
Similar to an AC system, the energy comes from your solar panels or PV array.
The only difference is that, in a DC-coupled system, the energy goes directly to the batteries – through a charge controller – instead of being converted into AC first.
This is the key component in a DC Coupled System as it enables two-way power flow.
Not only does it convert DC power from your solar panels into AC power to be used in your home, but it can also reverse the process – converting stored energy in the batteries back into DC power to charge them.
This is known as ‘battery to grid’ functionality and is a key advantage of DC Coupled systems, as you can sell stored energy back to the grid when energy prices are high.
This is a device that is multi-directional and measures how much energy is being generated by your solar panels, how much is being used in your home and how much is being stored in the batteries.
It’s important to have a payback meter installed as it will enable you to see how much money you’re saving by generating and storing your own energy.
In a DC-coupled system, the batteries are connected to an energy storage disconnect unit which in turn is connected to the charge controller.
The type of batteries you’ll need will depend on the size of your solar PV array and how much energy you want to store.
Lead-acid batteries are the most common type used in DC-coupled systems, however, lithium-ion batteries are becoming increasingly popular as they offer a longer lifespan and higher efficiency.
Off-grid cut off switch
Not only does the system have an energy storage disconnect, it also has a separate PV system disconnect connected to the PV array.
This is for safety reasons and to ensure that the system can be disconnected from the grid if necessary.
The national grid
In a DC Coupled system, the batteries are connected to the inverter which is in turn connected to the national grid.
This means that, if there’s a power outage, you’ll still have access to electricity as the batteries will provide power to the inverter.
It also means that you can sell stored energy back to the grid when energy prices are high.
Advantages Of DC Coupling A Solar Battery
- More power
Since the both the battery and the panels share the same inverter, DC-coupled systems are generally more affordable than their AC-coupled counterparts.
This because the hardware costs are reduced, as you only need to purchase one inverter instead of two.
As DC-coupled systems only require one conversion from DC to AC power, they are more efficient than AC-coupled systems – which require two conversions.
This means that you’ll lose less power to heat, ensuring that more of the solar energy your panels generate is stored in the battery.
Oversizing is possible with a DC-coupled battery system. When the amount of solar energy produced is greater than the inverter’s rating, as it may be in certain locations, oversizing occurs.
As a result, you can add more solar panels to your roof to produce more power and utilize the same inverter. The extra solar energy will be stored in the battery for later use.
In ac-coupled systems, low battery voltages can develop. If too much energy is extracted from the battery bank in an outage, it may cascade throughout the system, shutting down the multimode inverter, then the interactive inverter and the PV array.
When there is no direct connection between the solar array and the batteries, consumers have to wait for grid power to return before their system can begin operating again.
A dc-coupled system, on the other hand, can send power from the PV array to the ESS at any time (during daylight hours).
The unimpeded route between the PV array and battery bank allows for a higher battery voltage, allowing the multitwist inverter to turn back on and provide electricity to the uninterruptible power supply.
This, in turn, provides power to the loads until grid power is restored.
Disadvantages Of DC Coupling A Solar Battery
- The initial cost
- Less flexible
The initial cost
The Energy Saving Trust claims that DC systems are unable to charge from the grid. Additionally, DC systems require batteries with a higher voltage rating, which can also add to the initial cost.
When you’re connecting a DC battery system, you’ll notice that there’s less flexibility because the batteries must be close to the inverter. Because they aren’t linked to the inverter in an AC-coupled system, the batteries may be placed further away.
Additionally, if you want to add more panels or batteries to a DC-coupled system at a later date, this may not be possible as the inverter may not have the capacity to handle the extra power.

The Georgian Foreign Ministry expresses condolences to the family in connection with this great tragedy.
“Based on the high public interest in this issue, we inform you that, having received information about this problem, the Georgian Embassy in Turkey and the Georgian Consulate General in Istanbul, on behalf of the Prime Minister of Georgia, immediately got involved in solving the problem and had intensive communication both with the leadership of the clinic, and with the relevant departments of the Republic of Turkey, about which family members and relatives of the deceased were informed,” the message says.
On November 13, 16-year-old Mariam Gogiashvili died in a Turkish clinic. A month ago, the girl was placed in the intensive care unit of the clinic with a diagnosis of leukemia. A few days ago, a close family member posted a post on social media, from which the public learned that the family owed $44,000 to the clinic, which is why they were not given the body.
