This article is not just for Lutherans. It applies to most North American faith families.
The above chart spells unmitigated disaster. And it’s a few years old. It’s gotten much worse since it was first printed.
And better theology is not going to rescue us. We Lutherans have always had the odd idea that if we could “nail” the philosophical content of the Gospel, then everything would line up and we would thrive. Truth is, we have right-leaning Lutherans (LCMS) and left-leaning Lutherans (ELCA) and ALL of us are headed down the same demographic waterslide hand-in-hand.
When eco-feminism is preached from our pulpits, the demographic results shouldn’t surprise us
I’m a theological conservative with no illusions that more conservatism would stem this tide. Our big problems are demographic.
We have HALF the demographic footprint we had in 1960; the year I was born. Then, the ELCA’s predecessor bodies had 5.3 million members. That’s 29.4 for every 1,000 Americans at the time. Our nation has almost doubled in population since then, and the ELCA now has 4 million members. That’s only 14.12 ELCA members for every 1,000 Americans.
The gay issue in the ELCA churchwide assembly of 2009 will be seen as a blip, historically, compared to the real crises:
1) Lutherans don’t have enough babies. We seem to see them as a liability. Ironic that we did backflips, inducing great trauma to the ELCA, to include the LGBT group (on their terms) which has the lowest fertility rate on earth. It’s like we’re trying to form a no-baby union.
When I was young, it was common to hear church leaders encourage dating, marriage, family formation and getting about the business of having and raising kids. “Be fruitful and multiply” was taken as marching orders. Such encouragement is seen as “gauche” at best and perhaps even taboo today.
Here are confirmation pictures from 1969 and 2004 from the same Lutheran congregation. These trends are the rule, not the exception, for most congregations. Do the math.
2) Lutherans don’t retain enough of the babies they have.
3) Lutherans have no clue how to do evangelism which leads to large-scale adult conversion and baptism. Some even have an “in principle” allergy against doing it; for them, praying with someone to become a Christian is some kind of theological felony. We did 14 adult baptisms at our last church picnic (and we are only a church of 200). Have a look at the video>> LINK We are shooting for 30 this year.
4) Many of our congregations are led by informal juntas of empty nesters and retired people which sabotage every step taken to try to create a young-adult-friendly environment, young adults who tend to have babies, by the way. The trauma many of our missional pastors carry is not unlike that of soldiers returning from Iraq. PTSD is rampant among the younger half of our clergy roster (which is tiny–the average ELCA pastor is 59 and aging). It’s not the pagans who beat on them, it’s their own church members.
5) Lutherans do not do well in urban areas where they have had many churches (big cities like LA, Chicago, St. Louis, etc.) when those zip codes diversify ethnically. In general, we’d literally rather die than reach the new immigrant residents. And we seem to think that urban Latinos and African Americans are looking for high-church worship with a PC message; intelligent Catholicism in black and white without the magic. Small wonder they are staying away in droves
6) Our denominational corporate structures are clueless about the “opt in” revolution created by social media. They still think they can control their rosters and not have to attract, cultivate, and maintain “opt inners.” Both the lists of congregations and clergy are brittle and fragmenting. Denominations are like Tower Records trying to discipline iTunes. Good luck.
7) Lutherans are also clueless about the communications revolution. Most of them spend half of their office hours producing bulletins and newsletters which are among the poorest quality print media in America, and no one reads them. Most of our pastors don’t have blogs or a social media presence of any kind, let alone a podcast (click for example) that would hold anyone’s attention. Many Lutheran churches have no website or screens in the church. And the ones that do have websites usually have a big picture of a Jetsons-Gothic postwar church building (see pic below) with other useless information. Generalities abound on such websites (e.g. love the world and love God), and there are no branding distincitives (i.e. what makes us unique) that would attract someone. The mission statements are so vague that Taco Bell could probably use them. And you can never find a picture of the pastor or get a feel for her or his vibe. Anti-branding. Fine, don’t have screens–and while you’re at it, get rid of your parking lot and hope streetcars will come back. If you’re not at least toying with the idea of crafting a smartphone “app” for your church, you may simply never catch up.
8. We have over-merged. Some talk about the “emergent” church. Well, we are the “overmergent” church. A few generations ago, when Lutheranism was thriving, we had a bunch of solid medium-sized Lutheran denominations which were very relational (every pastor could go do every national gathering), and each one had clear branding and vibe. There was loyalty to their one seminary and tiny handful of major global mission fields. Now we have two mega corporations which have no branding and spend all of their time fighting, because we are forcing together constituencies that don’t belong together. Many of our seminaries are going broke. Our leaders can’t name our global mission fields. Former ELC pietists have no business slugging it out for turf within the ELCA with former ULCA East Coast types. No branding, no new customers.
9) Most Lutheran sermons are virtually impossible to understand. I was a Fulbright Scholar and I can’t follow most of them. We tend to preach in the formal register with tertiary reflection; writing a weekly term paper for a professor who isn’t even there. And we are humor-impaired. Our preaching culture is non-existent. We don’t celebrate our (few) preaching stars. Name them. See?
10) We treat our successful churches like pariahs. Reading the Lutheran for years, you’d have no idea which churches they are. The ones that are growing and thriving, reaching lots of new converts, and baptizing them. The ones that are transforming their communities. Heaven forbid we celebrate any success. Synod staffs, churchwide, and struggling congregations tend to be at least passively aggressive towards any success. And if new church plants innovate? Don’t let them on the roster! Unless they impersonate the other dying congregations.
11) I value the opinions of leftists. Some of them I share; some I don’t. Respectful leftists return the favor. Some just scream at you. Bless them :-).
But with a drift toward PC “left-ism,” comes, without question and statistically provable, a less church-going population (see the recent Gallup results–a conservative is twice as likely to be in church as a leftist), and less tendency to have big families (NPR families have way less kids than NASCAR families) that will carry on the important missional work we are doing for generations to come. I think that’s worth questioning, once in a while. Even if I’m wrong, which many of you believe and may indeed be the case, I will plant my flag on the right to ask the question. The survival of our movement is at stake.
12) Along with leftism, follows harder-edged feminism and “green” mentality–taken for granted by most of our clergy. Promotion of these two “isms” leads to less births. Why?
Feminism, in its sturdier forms, can be outright hostile to traditional family formation, shaming “cookie bakers” as somehow embracing stunted femaleness. Women’s desire to get married and have lots of kids (so prominent in movies a generation ago that it’s almost shocking to watch) has to be expressed in hushed tones today in order to avoid a rap on the knuckles from radfem types. Family formation is delayed and less kids are a result.
And greens? I’m pretty green in my thinking. But eco-mentality-ism carries with it the basic assumption that humans are bad for the planet and the less of them the better. Truth is, the population of the world is not a problem at all; in fact the real problem is that most of us will see the global population peak and nosedive within our lifetimes (I know I just messed with your worldview, but it’s true). Economically, this could create huge challenges with an aging group of retirees and less kids to support them.
Truth is, the entire earth population could stand comfortably (all together) with one square meter of space, on South Stradbroke Island off Queensland. Fly across America and get a window seat. Our continent is empty.
So when “eco-feminism light” gets preached or implied/assumed from the pulpit, guess what the demographic results are?
There will always be Lutherans in America.
We are too strong in the Upper Midwest to disappear entirely. But we have squandered our “pole position” which we had after WW2. Instead of contributing to the core of the project that is America, we seem to be choosing to be a quirky footnote to life here.

New York Fashion Week S/S 2009: Erin Fetherston
A friend of my favourite woman in the world (Zooey Deschanel...you all know this by now!) Erin Fetherston can always be relied upon to bring the fashion world something feminine, ethereal and beautiful, and for Spring / Summer 2009 she didn't let us down. The collection was awash with pastel colours and sheer fabrics that floated around the models. Though a lot of the later pieces were rendered unwearable with huge fluffy frills and tiers, the earlier day pieces - camisoles, short dresses and wide trousers were very pretty. See for yourself with the runway vid below via Coutorture.

Béla Bartók and Turn-of-the-Century Budapest
Bartók's music is greatly prized by concertgoers, yet we know little about the intellectual milieu that gave rise to his artistry. Bartók is often seen as a lonely genius emerging from a gray background of an "underdeveloped country." Now Judit Frigyesi offers a broader perspective on Bartók's art by grounding it in the social and cultural life of turn-of-the-century Hungary and the intense creativity of its modernist movement. Bartók spent most of his life in Budapest, an exceptional man living in a remarkable milieu. Frigyesi argues that Hungarian modernism in general and Bartók's aesthetic in particular should be understood in terms of a collective search for wholeness in life and art and for a definition of identity in a rapidly changing world. Is it still possible, Bartók's generation of artists asked, to create coherent art in a world that is no longer whole? Bartók and others were preoccupied with this question and developed their aesthetics in response to it. In a discussion of Bartók and of Endre Ady, the most influential Hungarian poet of the time, Frigyesi demonstrates how different branches of art and different personalities responded to the same set of problems, creating oeuvres that appear as reflections of one another. She also examines Bartók's Bluebeard's Castle, exploring philosophical and poetic ideas of Hungarian modernism and linking Bartók's stylistic innovations to these concepts.

In an apple tree's blossoms, even in the bud, the whole future apple is present in all its details — they have only to mature, to grow, to become the apple, the apple tree, and its power of reproduction. Similarly, a real composer's musical conception, like the physical, is one single act, comprising the totality of the product. The form in its outline, characteristics of tempo, dynamics...

News & in-depth analysis of wind power and renewable energy business, companies, contracts and deals.
UNITED STATES: A multi-brand service model is taking off in the operations and maintenance (O&M) market.
BRAZIL: After installing around 9.5GW in the past five years, Brazil's wind market is moving in a new direction.
CHINA: Chinese companies are showing increasing interest in the wind industry in the "Belt and Road" countries, with more turbines sold to that area and more engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contracts signed.
UK: From designing vertical-axis-turbines to developing wind farms and shaping policy, industry veteran and outgoing RES chief Ian Mays has seen many changes in the wind industry.
ARGENTINA: One week after signing a major restructuring deal to save the company, Argentinean engineering firm Industrias Metalurgicas Pescarmona (Impsa) has inaugurated a new wind turbine factory in the west of the country.
NETHERLANDS: Offshore wind contractor Van Oord has reached a deal to acquire the offshore wind activities of German engineering firm Bilfinger, including assets and employees.

Windpower Monthly Events
To the list of Vestas and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, GE and Alstom, Nordex and Acciona, we can now add Siemens and Gamesa (p10).
The European Wind Energy Association (EWEA) must be congratulated for the quietly efficient way it set about managing its annual event in a city still reeling from the shock of a terrorist attack just three days earlier.
There are many challenges associated with developing projects in forested, low-wind sites, but finding a suitable turbine is not likely to be one of them.

A survey of large tonnage liquid chiller manufacturers revealed that by the end of 2001 approximately 40,560 of the 80,000 CFC chillers in service in the early 1990s will still use CFCs.
"At the current pace," according to ARI, "it will take at least until the end of this decade to eliminate chillers that use CFC-11 and CFC-12, the two most widely used CFC refrigerants." Manufacturers said that in 2001 they expected 452 conversions and 3,324 replacements to bring the total to 39,440 or 49% of the 80,000 CFC chillers.
The number of replacements is less than expected earlier when the production ban was announced. However, the pace assures steady demand for the non-CFC units at home and abroad.

Artisan baker Speciality Breads has launched a duo of Sabarosa Flatbreads, just in time for the beginning of the alfresco season.
Tapping into the trend in foodservice for South American, Lebanese and Persian food plus grilling over flames, the new flatbreads are the perfect base for a range of dishes, whether that be side, snack or main. Simply brushed with oil and chargrilled, they can be topped with all manner of ingredients to create a refreshingly different dish.
Docked by hand, these Sabarosa flatbreads, which means ‘tasty’ in Portuguese are made using 100% British Red Tractor-certified flour and premium Kentish rapeseed oil. The flatbreads come in boxes of 25 with each unit weighing 130g and they are being targeted at the casual dining, restaurant, pub, hotel, café and wider foodservice sector.
“With barbecues and grills being dusted off in preparation of the summer and alfresco season, the timing couldn’t be better for the launch of these unique flatbreads. Bang on trend, the two variants are packed with flavor and provide chefs with the perfect canvas on which to base and create a dish. Whether it is to accompany some Argentinean steak, Persian inspired dips or some barbecued delights, we expect these flatbreads to be heavily used this summer,” said Speciality Breads’ MD Simon Cannell.
The company has also recently released the first world-first scone-brioche hybrid.
The two types of Sabarosa Bread are Chimichurri, which incorporates classic Argentinian flavors such as cayenne pepper, oregano and kibbled onion, and Sourdough Sabarosa Flatbread.

Thai curry is so delicious and really simple to make at home. I love it for cold weather because it’s so comforting and spicy and warms you up inside. It’s super easy to make at home at a fraction of the cost of takeout.
A curry is only as good as the curry paste that you use. It is so worth making a trip to an Asian market or ordering online to get the good stuff. Mae Ploy is my personal favorite and is widely available here, but I’ve also heard that Thai and True is good. Steer clear of brands like Thai kitchen or premixed sauces, as their flavor is bland at best.
For the veggies, you can switch it up to include whatever you’d like, but it’s nice to include one starchy veggie like potatoes, sweet potatoes, squash, or carrots + at least one non starchy veggie like broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, mushrooms, bell pepper, etc + a whole onion to give it a good texture balance and flavor. I used tofu here but it is totally optional.
Thai green curry with green beans, sweet potato and tofu (serves 4)
1T veggie oil (coconut or avocado)
1 large yellow onion, sliced
4-6T green curry paste, preferably Mae Ploy
1 can coconut milk
1 large sweet potato, chopped into 1/2 in chunks
2c green beans, cut into bite sized pieces
1 15 ounce package organic tofu (optional), cut into 1/2 inch cubes
Thai basil for topping (optional but delicious)
Cooked rice for serving (optional)
Drizzle the oil in a large skillet and add the onions. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the onion is soft. Add the curry paste and stir well. Fry for a minute until paste is fragrant. Add coconut milk and 1c water, stir well. Add sweet potato and cook for 6-7 minutes uncovered until sweet potato can be pierced with a fork. Add green beans, cover, and cook for 4 minutes or until all veggies are tender. Add tofu and cook for another 2 minutes until tofu is warmed through: serve over rice and top with Thai basil leaves.

Happy New Year, baby boy. I'm sorry I haven't written you more, I have been so sad without you, it is hard to do anything at all. We had our first Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year without you, when it should have been our first holidays with you. Instead of "baby's first Christmas" ornaments, we had ornaments to remember you. Your Godmom Kate sent us a little Christmas tree for you. It is so cute, but it also makes me sad. I don't want a tree to remember you by. I don't want to make Thanksgiving and Christmas flowers for your grave. I wanted to dress you up in a santa suit that you would be embarrassed of when you got bigger. I wanted to show you off to everyone at the holidays. I just want you here. I feel so empty without you. I think about you all the time, and I miss you every second of every day. Our family is not the same without you here. It's so strange that you have been gone for 4 and 1/2 months. How is it possible that it simultaneously feels like it was yesterday and so long ago? I wonder what you would be like now. I look at Skylar, who is just a couple weeks younger than you, and was so much tinier than you were when she was born. I can't help but compare you to her.
I was so sick when you were born, and I was not awake for your birth. For a long time, I didn't know if you had cried, because by the time I woke up, they had put you on a ventilator. I was too scared to ask Daddy, because I didn't want to upset him, and also because I was afraid of his answer. But I finally asked him the night before Thanksgiving. And guess what? You did cry. That made me so happy to hear. I wish I got the chance to hear you. There are so many things that I wish for. Things that are not possible. But I am thankful for the memories I do have of you. I will never forget them. I love you so much, Simon. More than I knew was possible. I hope that you know that.

A heavily pregnant teenager and her boyfriend were found dead in a car only days after they went missing.
Savanah Nicole Soto, 18, and her boyfriend Matthew Guerra, 22, were reportedly found inside a car on the northwest side of the Colinas Medical Apartments in San Antonio after they disappeared on December 23.
Police said that the teen was last seen at her apartment in Leon Valley and was described to be in ‘imminent danger.’
She was reportedly scheduled to be induced on Saturday but the heavily pregnant teen failed to show up at the hospital.
San Antonio Police Chief William McManus told reporters that the case is ‘very complex and perplexing.’
Police did not know who found the car and did not mention if the baby had survived.
Soto’s heartbroken mother, Gloria Cordova, previously told KENS5: “Savanah was so, so happy because she was going to be a mommy. It breaks my heart.
“Please come home. No one’s going to judge you. No one is going to say anything. I just want you to be home.”
Cordova said that she last heard from her daughter on December 22 but she could no longer reach her when she tried to check on the teen on Saturday.
“I went by there and knocked and knocked and knocked and she wasn’t answering,” Cordova expressed.
“We got to the hospital. They said she wasn’t there.”
The mother said that her daughter was ready to welcome her baby and even had the nursery done. She also planned to have her mom in the delivery room.
“We don’t even know what happened,” Cordova continued. “They said it could be anything.”
She also took to social media and shared a photo of Soto, writing: “I’m worried about her safety she is with her boyfriend who is no good.”
Thousands of people joined the ‘Find Savannah Soto Discussion’ group as many searched for clues that could lead to the teen’s disappearance.
Guerra’s mother also spoke out to defend her son, saying: “I know my son and he wouldn’t do anything to hurt her.”

Once the dust settles on Justin Trudeau’s historic election victory, it will be time for the Liberal party to roll up its sleeves and set to work bringing about all that “real change” they have promised Canadians.
Focusing purely on defence issues, Trudeau vowed during the campaign that one of his first priorities would be to end the Royal Canadian Air Force commitment in the allied air campaign against ISIS in Syria and Iraq. On his first day as prime minister-designate, Trudeau kept that promise (sort of) by telling U.S. President Barack Obama that Canada would be withdrawing from the air alliance. Of course, Trudeau did not specify an exact date as to when the RCAF contingent will pack up and fly home from Kuwait.
Some have speculated that, in order to appease Obama, Canada might keep our six-pack of CF-18 fighters in the Middle East until the one-year Parliament-approved mission extension expires in April.
As a sop to the Americans, Trudeau has also promised to keep Canada in the fight against ISIS, albeit in a different capacity than simply launching combat air strikes. This could take the form of continuing the training mission in Kurdistan or the provision of more strategic airlift capability, but there is virtually zero chance Canada will be putting boots on the ground in an actual combat role.
During the campaign, the Liberals also vowed to cancel Canada’s participation in the purchase of the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter. The defeated Conservative government had announced its intention to purchase 65 planes to replace the RCAF’S aging fleet of CF-18 Hornets. However, in the face of damaging audits and assessments that pegged the acquisition at a staggering $44 billion — rather than the originally announced $16 billion — the Harper government had pushed the reset button on the entire project.
This being real life and not a Staples commercial, no one knew exactly what Harper meant by pushing the easy button, but it was clear that both the Conservative government and the RCAF still wanted to acquire F-35s no matter the actual cost.
Trudeau stated categorically that, if elected, the Liberals would take them off the menu and seek a cheaper replacement aircraft for the CF-18 fleet. It is true that, to date, Canada has not actually signed a contract with Lockheed Martin so, in theory, there should be no requirement to pay out any cancellation fees. However, there will still be a price to pay.
From the outset, the Joint Strike Fighter initiative was to be a multinational collaboration effort with all participating countries bearing a share of the development costs. Canada has paid US$309 million to date to be a member of the club and thereby permit the Canadian aviation industry to bid on production contracts.
As of yet, and with no final number of worldwide aircraft orders yet determined, the unit cost per F-35 remains a guesstimate. Whenever one country opts out of the program, the remaining partners take heed because this will inevitably drive up the unit cost of the price they must pay. Beyond just the U.S., the club includes another 10 countries, many of which are key NATO allies.
Canada’s lack of military foresight and investment in the 1990s meant we had to turn to many of these same allies to beg, borrow, lease and cajole the necessary weaponry and equipment to sustain our battle groups in Afghanistan. For instance, we borrowed helicopters from the U.S., tanks from the Germans and our troops hitchhiked airlifts with Dutch and Polish helicopters.
For the new Liberal government, opting out of the fighter program for the sake of appeasing the electorate could have international repercussions of substantial consequence. A compromise solution would be for Trudeau to put them back on the table and for the Canadian Armed Forces to conduct a fair and transparent competition to determine which aircraft will best suit the RCAF’s needs in the post-CF-18 era.
That way, our allies and fellow partner nations will know this was not just political grandstanding by a newly elected prime minister.
We should never underestimate or undermine the goodwill Canada has with our allies. God knows, they have bailed us out in the past and will likely have to do so again in the near future.

Dominance (often Discipline).
This is how you may be usually the one managing the action. There are lots of those who love being truly a dom, one section of a mutually respectful relationship where one other party empowers on their own giving up some control. It isnвЂ™t constantly physical, as weвЂ™ll speak about. It is about making someone do your bidding, whether through exquisite withholding, pleasure-granting, physical play, or just about any means (demonstrably, using their permission and desires at heart). The flip part of dominance is the act of submitting. Doms and subs generally have a relationship, if you don’t maintain a relationship. The sub gets down on being told what direction to go or using just just what the dom offers. The submissive is usually a male, but this is split pretty equally among genders in popular culture. A sadist (in BDSM) could be the person who enjoys being the partner that is dominant generally speaking enjoys it intimately. You can be principal without getting sexual satisfaction from it, it professionally or being good, giving, and game for a partner if you are doing. But if being principal, particularly in the type of inflicting discomfort, turns you on, then you’re a sadist into the BDSM community. Right right right Here, this will not have negative connotation. It really is a breathtaking an element of the puzzle that is sexual.
exact exact Same having a masochist some body whoever sexual joy can include having discomfort or other types of submission inflicted upon them. Individuals are masochists for all reasons, and there’s no body style of individual who enjoys it. It really isnвЂ™t poor or unmanly or unfeminist: it really is your sex. Now, you may maybe perhaps perhaps not squeeze into any one of those groups, and thatвЂ™s fine. Many people, particularly novices, donвЂ™t determine themselves completely by one part. In reality, it’s very common for partners to be switches , individuals who mix up who’s dominating who, and that is upon which end of this paddle. As constantly, its about finding why is you the happiest. And a complete great deal of that time period, that search starts with adult services and products.
LetвЂ™s Speak About Flogging: Stepping Into BDSM
Therefore, you believe youвЂ™re prepared to start? Well, before you get into bed (or on the floor, or tied against the door, or in the sex dungeon you borrowed from your neighbor for the weekend) as we said, this starts well. And also this stays real no matter if just one partner is a newbie. There are numerous partners by which one individual is pretty knowledgeable about BDSM and also the other is not. Whatever your quantities of experience, it all starts having a conversation.BDSM just isn’t, and really shouldnвЂ™t be, dangerous. It offers the thrill that is sexual of risk, utilizing the adrenaline and serotonin that feeling brings, but there should not be described as a situation where somebody could possibly get really harmed. It really is a enjoyable phrase of real closeness; maybe perhaps not a sport that is extreme. Therefore donвЂ™t go involved with it thinking you’re taking a danger. Get you are trying something new with someone into it thinking.
Therefore in it, open your mouthвЂ¦ and your ears.pTalk to each other before you put a ball gag. Every BDSM that is good relationship with honesty. Be truthful in what you would like, and that which you think you might desire. Be truthful by what enables you to uncomfortable. Be truthful about red lines. And stay truthful relating to this being initial of several conversations. We realize individuals who said that theyвЂ™d never move beyond fuzzy handcuffs who will be now wrapping one another in cling-film every week-end.pExplore dreams. DonвЂ™t be ashamed. Human sexuality has huge amounts of variations, which means you must certanly be comfortable dealing with dreams. You wonвЂ™t understand what you, or one other individual, desires until you can speak about that which you both desire whenever no body is viewing.

Milestone reached for Whiston Juniors improvements as part of Garden Village plans
9 Feb 2024
Halsnead Garden Village will accommodate a range and mix of high-quality housing types from one to four bedrooms, helping to ensure a choice of housing in the Garden Village. The homes are being built upon the traditional principles of a Garden Village. They will respect and recognise the local context and history of the site. The development will significantly increase the supply of large family homes within Knowsley and deliver much-needed affordable housing integrated with the market housing.


Living sustainably has become increasingly important in today’s world as individuals and communities seek ways to minimize their impact on the environment.
One aspect of sustainable living that often goes unnoticed is how we handle our physical mail. Traditional mail delivery systems contribute to paper waste and carbon emissions from transportation and pose security risks.
However, digital mailbox services offer a sustainable solution that addresses these concerns while providing numerous benefits.
What Is A Digital Mailbox?
A digital mailbox is an online service that allows individuals to receive, view, manage, and organize their physical mail electronically. It works by providing users with a unique mailing address where all their mail is received.
The mail is then digitized, securely stored, and accessible through an online platform or mobile app. Specialized companies offer digital mailbox services and handle the entire process, ensuring privacy, security, and convenience.
Benefits Of Digital Mailbox For Sustainable Living
1. Reducing Paper Waste
One of the primary benefits of a digital mailbox is its ability to significantly reduce paper waste. Instead of receiving physical mail that often ends up in the recycling bin, users receive it in digital format, minimizing the need for paper production and disposal.
2. Minimizing Carbon Footprint
By eliminating the need for physical mail delivery, digital mailboxes help reduce carbon emissions associated with transportation. Traditional mail delivery requires fuel consumption from vehicles, contributing to air pollution and climate change. Switching to digital mailboxes reduces the carbon footprint associated with mail delivery.
3. Enhanced Security and Privacy
Digital mailbox services employ advanced security measures to protect personal information and sensitive documents. Traditional mailboxes are susceptible to theft and unauthorized access, whereas digital mailboxes use encryption and secure servers to ensure confidentiality and privacy.
4. Convenient and Efficient
With a digital mailbox, there’s no need to sort through mail or worry about missed deliveries physically. Users can access their mail from anywhere, anytime, using a computer or mobile device. It saves time and provides convenience, especially for those who travel frequently or have a busy lifestyle.
5. Streamlining Mail Management
Digital mailboxes offer powerful organizational features that make managing mail effortless. Users can sort, categorize, and search through their mail digitally, reducing clutter and improving efficiency. It’s easier to keep track of important documents, bills, and correspondence without the need for physical storage.
6. Reducing Transportation and Delivery Emissions
Digital mailboxes eliminate the need for mail carriers to make daily rounds, reducing fuel consumption and emissions. This sustainable approach helps decrease air pollution, particularly in urban areas where mail delivery vehicles contribute significantly to traffic and emissions.
7. Promoting a Greener Lifestyle
By adopting a digital mailbox, individuals actively contribute to a greener lifestyle. It aligns with sustainability and environmental responsibility principles by reducing resource consumption, waste generation, and carbon emissions.
Digital mailboxes are a sustainable solution for handling physical mail. They support sustainable living practices by reducing paper waste, minimizing carbon emissions, enhancing security and privacy, and streamlining mail management. Embracing a digital mailbox not only benefits individuals but also contributes to a greener and more eco-friendly future.

By now loud traffic jams have become ordinary in the United States. Commuters know exactly how horrible it is to spend even 40 minutes in a jam, while those living nearby high traffic areas have developed immunity to the noise. A Danish study comes to show traffic noise is not so harmless. In fact, researchers say traffic noise raises heart attack risk.
Journal PLoS ONE published a study from researchers with the Danish Cancer Society which shows traffic noise puts people at risk from heart attack. For the most part, many people go through traffic noise without even being aware of how high the decibels are. But those living in such areas are really facing a serious issue. Even if they don’t find so disturbing, research shows traffic noise can raise heart attack risk.
The research looked at more than 50,000 people over 50 living in Copenhagen and Aarhus. Within the first 10 years of their exposure to traffic noise, 1,600 had their very fist heart attack. Basically, with every 10 decibels increase in traffic noise, the risk of a person suffering a heart attack increased by 12 percent.
Dr. Mette Sorenson, lead author of the study, explained: “Previously there seemed to be no effect up to around 60 decibels. But I see increases at around 40 decibels up to the highest level, around 82 decibels”. Basically, Sorenson emphasizes “it doesn’t seem to be a level where there are no effects”.
Scientists can’t explain for sure how is traffic noise increasing the heart attack risk, but they believe it’s because it raises stress, hormone levels such as adrenaline and blood pressure. Also traffic noise disturbs sleep patterns and when coupled with car exhaust it becomes obvious people exposed to it on a regular base could really develop health problems.
Although the study was undertaken in Denmark’s largest cities, the findings truly pertain to the United States. Dr. Chip Lavie, cardiac rehabilitation and prevention medical doctor at New Orleans’ Ochsner Medical Center, told ABC News that in theory psychological stress caused by traffic noise could raise risk for a heart attack. He emphasized that scientists have found there are numerous psychological factors associated to stress that can boost the risk for a heart attack.

Computational modeling offers versatility, scalability, and cost advantages to researchers in the trauma and injury biomechanics communities. The Global Human Body Models Consortium (GHBMC) is a group of government, industry, and academic researchers developing human body models (HBMs) that aim to become the standard tool to meet this growing research need. The objective of this study is to present the methods used to develop the average seated male occupant model (M50, weight = 78 kg, height = 175 cm) from five separately validated body region models (BRMs). BRMs include the head, neck, thorax, abdomen, and a combined pelvis and lower extremity model. Modeling domains were split at the atlanto-occipital joint, C7-T1 boundary, diaphragm, abdominal cavity (peritoneum/retroperitoneum), and the acetabulum respectively. BRM meshes are based on a custom CAD model of the seated male built from a multi-modality imaging protocol of a volunteer subject found in literature. Various meshing techniques were used to integrate the full body model (FBM) including 1-D beam and discrete element connections (e.g. ligamentous structures), 2D shell nodal connections (e.g. inferior vena cava to right atrium), 3D hexahedral nodal connections (e.g. soft tissue envelope connections between regions), and contact definitions varying from tied (muscle insertions) to sliding (liver and diaphragm contact). The model was developed in a general-purpose finite element code, LS-Dyna (LTSC, Livermore, CA) R4.2.1., and consists of 1.95 million elements and 1.3 million nodes. The element breakdown by type is 41% hexahedral, 33.7% tetrahedral, 19.5% quad shells and 5% tria shell. The integration methodology presented highlights the viability of using a collaborative development paradigm for the construction of HBMs, and will be used as template for expanding the suite of GHBMC models.

High-handedness in Sankhuwasabha, too
Sankhuwasabha, March 10 :
Cadres of Unified CPN-Maoist last night thrashed two persons by taking them out of the police custody in Diding VDC in Sankhuwasabha.
They took Umesh Rai, 39, and Nokha Bahadur Rai, 36, of Diding-8 out of the custody and thrashed them after taking them to the Unified Maoists’ district office in Khandbari, according to Kawansen Rai, a district committee member of the CPN-UML.
The police had detained the duo on March 2 in connection with an attack on YCL’s district leader Dilli Bahadur Rai on February 25.
Saying that they would settle the dispute as per the direction of Unified Maoists’ district secretary Rajendra Karki, the Maoist cadres took the duo to their party office after securing their release from the custody, the victims said.
“We were forced to release the detainees after we were informed that a top district leader of the Unified Maoists will settle the dispute,” DSP Surya Prasad Upadhyaya expressed his helplessness.
The victims, who reached the Sankhuwasabha District Police Office today, told journalists and human rights activists that the Maoist activists severely beat up them for one-and-a-half hours and threatened them of life. The police later rescued the duo after a UML district member informed the police about the Maoists’ act.
Medical tests of the duo were carried out at the District Hospital. They duo have sustained serious injuries in ear and other body parts.
Umesh and Nokha Bahadur said they had thrashed YCL leader Dilli Bahadur Rai after the latter threatened them and their family members.
Human right activists in the district said the incident was a clear indication that the administration was functioning at the direction of Maoists. Human rights activist Khadga Rai said, “The victims should not be deprived of justice.” District representative of INSEC Lila Prasad Shrestha said the incident was a violation of human rights.
DSP Upadhyaya assured that they would take action against the guilty and provide justice to the victims. CDO Tulasi Prasad Gautam said action should be taken against the elements involved in the incident.
Meanwhile, Unified Maoists’ district members Kamala Sharma and Nawaraj Baraili said
they were unaware of the incident.

Globus CLI is a tool developed by Globus which provides an interface to interact with different Globus services using the command prompt or terminal. Using CLI, users can orchestrate data transfer between two endpoints, sync directories, or manipulate directory structure in their account on ISAAC cluster without using the Globus web interface. One of the interesting points about Globus CLI is that users do not need to have CLI installed on each of the computers or clusters to use its features.
In ISAAC infrastructure, we have installed Globus CLI on ISAAC Next Gen cluster as a module. After logging in to the cluster, users can load the module for Globus CLI using the command:
module load globusCLI/3.3.0
Important Note: The Globus CLI is written in python and is available as a python package on PyPI. We used anaconda3/2021.05 to load the python environment and install globus CLI. However, the users does not need to load the Anaconda module. It will get loaded automatically while loading the globusCLI module.
Before starting the transfer of data, let us understand and learn how to use Globus CLI and access the endpoints.
Assuming you are already logged in to the ISAAC NG cluster, please follow the below steps to login to Globus using Globus CLI:
module load globusCLI/3.3.0
To find a list of different commands which work in globus CLI, type the below command:
globus endpoint search "ISAAC-NG DTN1"
globus endpoint search --help
Let us say that we want to transfer data from ISAAC Legacy to ISAAC NG. We need to find the endpoint for ISAAC Legacy. We can find that out by using the same command as we used for ISAAC NG.
globus endpoint search "ISAAC Legacy"
To transfer a single file from one endpoint to another, we will use the below command:
globus transfer <source-endpoint>:/path/to/the/file/filename <destination-endpoint>://path/where/file/will/be/saved/filename
To transfer the file from ISAAC Legacy DTN (source) to ISAAC NG DTN (destination), the command will be written as:
globus transfer $ep_legacy:/nics/b/home/<UTNetID>/tesfile $ep_ng:/nfs/home/<UTNetID>/testfile
To copy a directory containing certain files and/or sub-directories from ISAAC Legacy (endpoint ep_legacy) to ISAAC NG, use -r flag after the globus transfer command
globus transfer -r $ep_legacy:/nics/b/home/<UTNetID>/directory_name $ep_ng:/nfs/home/<UTNetID>/directory_name
Here the flag -r stands for copying the files recursively
In order to sync the contents of the directory on the source endpoint (say ep_legacy) to destination endpoint (ep_ng) directory, use the flag -s or –sync-level followed by one of the four values
globus transfer -s exists $ep_legacy:/nics/b/home/<UTNetID>/directory_name $ep_ng:/nfs/home/<UTNetID>/directory_name
The above command will copy only those contents from the source directory to destination directory which are not present on the destination directory.

Chop Suey, the most iconic painting by Hopper left in private hands, epitomises the psychological complexity for which his work is celebrated, freezing in place an everyday scene.

Casey Wood, CEO of Ark Investment Management, said that Metaverse could become a trillion-dollar market. “This is a great idea that may permeate every industry in ways we can’t even imagine now,” she said.
Cathie Wood believes Metaverse will bring trillions of dollars in opportunities
Cathy Wood, CEO of Ark Invest, shared her predictions about Metaverse in an interview with CNBC last week. She explained that Metaverse will be a trillion-dollar opportunity that will affect all parts of the economy.
The CEO of Ark Investment believes:
This is a great idea that may permeate every department in a way that we can’t imagine right now, like technology.
After the social media giant Facebook changed its name to Meta, Metaverse has received widespread attention.
Wood was asked whether she thought Metaverse could become a trillion-dollar market. She simply replied: “We do.”
The CEO of Ark Investments pointed out that Metaverse will greatly expand away from the current focus on games and consumer products, and elaborated:
We will have our digital twin, which will bring a lot of fun and a lot of efficiency.
Recently, Grayscale Investment released a report He pointed out that “the market opportunity to bring Metaworld to life may have annual revenue of more than US$1 trillion, and may compete with today’s Web 2.0 companies with a market value of approximately US$15 trillion.”
Last week, a strategist at Bank of America Said Metaverse is a huge opportunity, and cryptocurrency will be widely used as currency.
However, some people are skeptical of the meta universe. They pointed out that people have been playing games in the virtual world for many years, emphasizing that this idea is far from revolutionary. Solana Labs co-founder Raj Gokal wrote on Twitter last week: “I worry that Metaverse is being exaggerated (the entire industry). I have not seen such a big hype in the mainstream media about unreleased products or product categories. Maybe never.”
Do you agree with Cathie Wood’s view that Metaverse has become a multi-trillion dollar market? Please let us know in the comments section below.
