The VE-8 provides you with a range of controls and functions that let your process and affect your guitar and vocal signals. For vocals you simply have to plug a microphone into the integrated XLR input and dial in the effects you desire.

The studio-quality vocal processing produces exceptional audio quality while retaining the nuances of the original sound. Chromatic pitch correction has also bee included for live vocal tuning.The dedicated guitar channels offers a range of parameters and effects such as acoustic resonance, reverb, chorus, phase invert and more. One of the most unique effects - Acoustic Resonance - works to restore your natural sound, combating against unwanted sound, typically associated with undersaddle pickups used in electro acoustics.

The phase switch and notch filter also help to eliminate any feedback issues within an instant.
Harmony and Loop Controls
One of the most unique features of the VE-8 is the ability to record and control loops as well as vocal harmonies. The custom-designed looper within the VE-8 allows you to lay down everything from percussive rhythms to chord progressions and vocal runs. The looper works by using the dedicated footswitch to record and stop the loop function. You can select to loop your guitar or voice individually or both via the the panel buttons, or with an optional footswitch.As well as being able to use loops, the VE-8 also gives you the ability to produce natural vocal harmonies, for added performance value. The harmony function features three different modes: Automatic, Hybrid and Fixed. Each of these modes provides you with different settings for generating vocal harmonies. The automatic harmony function detects the key your playing in and produces the correct harmony whilst you sing, for quick and easy harmonic vocal runs. Hybrid and Fixed harmony modes provide you with different settings for added versatility, suitable for a range of performing and recording applications. Additionally, there is a vocal doubling effect which delivers increased presence to your voice.

Additionally there is an AUX input allowing you to connect a smartphone or other device to the unit to play backing music Stereo XLR balanced outputs have also been provided allowing you to directly feed the VE-8 to a house PA. There is also stereo 1/4'' outputs that let you send a separate signal to stage monitors or an amplifier. The guitar and vocal channels also feature a three-band EQ that lets you sculpt and shape your tone to suit your style and sound.

Published on H-Minerva (November, 2001)
WWII WAC In The European Theater
WWII WAC In The European Theater
Women veterans of WWII, particularly WACs, have written a number of memoirs of their experiences during the war. Of these, many are self-published with little distribution, or worse, never published at all, as Linda Grant DePauw points out in her preface to this book. Women who have served their country by the thousands have been ignored, largely forgotten, and if noticed at all, generally set around heroic male movie figures as decorative objects or helpless rescuees. The few books that have made it to print have historically been of the we-had-such-girlish-fun-washing-our-hair-in-our-helmets genre. Real issues and descriptions of what life was like for many women in the service, particularly in theaters of war, have just begun to surface.
In part, again as DePauw points out, this is partially due to cultural and societal mores which strongly discouraged women from any public discussion of unpleasantness, particularly of a sexual nature. However, this reviewer would add that another powerful operant factor is denial. Discussions with some WWII women veterans have produced total denial of any veracity in any other woman veteran's account of sexual assault, serious harassment or even traumatic event for anyone but nurses.
The Good Soldier by Selene Weise, previously reviewed for H-Minerva, describes appalling living conditions, diet and treatment of women soldiers in the South Pacific theater, as well as exposure to all the dangers of being present in non-secured areas. Miller now adds to the store of knowledge through her account of service in the European theater. Both women returned to an indifferent nation unnoticed, unheralded, and unthanked for their services; both women also returned with severe health problems that would seriously affect them for the rest of their lives. Yet, the VA only very recently offered services or health care to women veterans.
Miller joined the Women's Army Auxiliary Corps (WAAC) in March, l943. In June of that year the WAAC, which had existed in a more or less quasi-military status, was granted full military status, and its members offered the opportunity to join the Women's Army Corps as soldiers. Miller signed up "for the duration."
In training school Miller ran into her first sexual predator, a woman. In those days, differences in sexual preference were not discussed, and neither she nor her roommate, whom the predator targeted, realized what was going on for some time. They tried to deal with the situation by avoiding "Claudia" as much as possible. Too embarrassed to go to higher authority, Miller's roommate opted out when the WAAC was disbanded. They expected and received sexual predation and harassment from male soldiers, and were prepared to handle it, but the aggressive predation of another woman caught them totally unprepared. Miller makes it clear she met other lesbians over time, but none were predators.
By good fortune, Miller's first posting was San Diego, and her life was filled with fun and excitement. Military women were vastly outnumbered, and men going and returning to the theaters of war were drawn to them in droves. For the most part, chivalry and gentlemanly behavior reigned, although fending off desperate appeals for marriage from men bound for the front could be heartrending and difficult. San Diego was also the site of Miller's first attempted sexual assault. Illegal sexual assault, that is. Every few weeks the WACs were required to strip from the waist down, lie down spread-eagled on their beds and stay that way while the female version of the male "short-arm inspection" was performed; an army doctor and nurse walking the line, doing quickie vaginals. (This practice has been verified by another WWII WAC who served elsewhere.) In the reviewer's opinion, this practice constituted a form of institutionalized rape. Miller opines that it must have been the idea of a junior officer who hated women in his army, considered them all whores, and was using it a form of sexual harassment.
Throughout the rather brief text several other instances of sexual harassment are recounted, however the author does state that by and large she and her fellow WACs were well-treated by the men with whom they served, and often defended protectively when they were subjected to verbal abuse from other soldiers while out in public.
When the opportunity arose, Miller signed up to go overseas and received orders to England, where she would work as a cryptographer. She crossed the Atlantic in winter seas on the Queen Mary, no longer bearing any resemblance to a luxury liner. She and her fellow WACs were crammed below decks and fed kidney stew--cold kidney stew. >From then on her diet consisted primarily of white margerine, heavy bread, powdered milk and eggs, C-Rations and other heavy, miserable food. Soldiers fought on this diet as well, and fresh fruit and vegetables were virtually unheard of. Of course, war-torn Europe was starving, and thousands of homeless, aimlessly fleeing refugees would have welcomed even that poor diet.
In Europe, Miller experienced the buzz bombs over London, one unforgettable and traumatic look into a ditch filled with murdered bodies shot by rapidly retreating Nazis, getting lost behind enemy lines, endless cold and discomfort. Europe during the war was not kind to enlisted personnel even as they saw the misery of the people all around them, which was so much worse.
Even then, there were lighter moments, and Miller recounts them with fondness and a talent for description that transports the reader back in time. She is a powerful writer, bringing the war alive in a way that shows reality with compassion, yet honesty. This is no chirpy girls-in-uniform fairy tale. This book is all about what it was like to be an army woman right in the thick of the war, bombings and all, living in constant fear, and overwhelming workloads which ultimately left the author ill from stress. She acknowledges she still experiences symptoms consistent with a diagnosis of PTSD, although she does not utilize that term.
In a post-script Miller angrily explains why she decided to write the book after all these years. She is weary of the contributions, efforts and sacrifices of women who served in the military being ignored and forgotten, and she's damn well going to stand up and be counted.
This book is particularly relevant now, as it clearly paints a picture of war-time from the inside. It's been a long, long time since Americans have seen war on their own soil, and perhaps this will make it real. It also makes it painfully clear that Americans need to remember and acknowledge that women have served in our armed forces, and not always in warm, safe offices stateside. It is a short book at 153 pages, but the writing is excellent. Certainly the story it tells is interesting. It should be read.

Ok the first two films I saw couldn't be further apart from each other. One is a documentary; the other is a Dramatic narrative. One is American, the other is Irish. One is a rallying call to arms; the other is just a mournful call. There's a little bit of irony, however that one is called Religulos and the other is Eden . Here's my take on both of them.
Religulous is funny, intelligent, but most of all, a call to arms for one of the largest (16%) minorities in this country, anti-religious, to stop the secularization of this country and its politics. Bill Maher makes it clear that he believes in doubt; good healthy doubt. The kind of doubt that makes us stop and question our thoughts, actions and motives. The kind of doubt that religion seems incapable of allowing for fear. That doubt might suggest, as the film does in no subtle way, that it might just be wrong in many of its assumptions and presumptions. That allowing doubt doesn't undermine one's faith, but rather allows us to see the metaphors for the trees. This is in no way a fair or impartial analysis from the first frames with Bill Maher standing on the supposed spot of the second coming and the end of time stating "The only thing I hate more than prophecy is self fulfilling prophecy." This is the basic argument that man rushes towards Armageddon foretold by so many religions is as a result of the blinders on religious views of the world which cannot allow for others faith or no faith and therefore condemns us to a world where peace is hindered by dogma. Larry Charles doesn't just set Maher loose on unsuspecting zealots of a variety of beliefs, but also juxtaposes the gorilla interviews with a variety of clips designed to amplify the absolute absurdity of what people profess to believe in. Christians, Jews, Muslims, Mormons, even a Norwegian based religion with smoking pot is as the seemingly only fundamental belief are all eviscerated by the team who are clearly on a mission. It's going to be seen as unfair and offensive and what may be missed is the fact that this attack isn't on a spiritual faith in something of greater power, but more on the blind certainty that many translate their faith into. A certainty that tells us I'm right and you're wrong is a faith that disputes science, common sense and diversity. The bottom line in this film is doubt. Bill Maher repeats his mantra "I don't know" throughout the film and that's the only certain thing. With religion infesting the politics of the world, it may very well be the doubters that are the last to stand between the world and its own self destruction.
Introduced as part of a mini Irish festival of films within the festival, Eden is a meditation. It's a long walk through the married life of a not quite so young couple with kids and jobs and a life that no longer exists. It is a mournful call back to the arms of the one you love when you're way off in the dark and you don't know how to get back home. With moving performances from both its leads, Aidan Kelly and Eileen Walsh, the film draws you along more than compels you. There's so much guilt in Kelly's portrayal of Billy, even though he's done nothing but imagine an affair, which you route for him just to see his pain stop. It's this fantasy combined with an apparent impotency and a love for the drink that draws a good man away. His wife Breda harbors a fantasy affair of her own, but this drives her to try and manifest it into the real world for Billy to see. Of course he can't and this blindness drives them both towards an inevitable precipice over which they will either fall together or apart. Yes the film explores familiar relationships, but it does so in a soft and aching way. You want them to find their way. These are real people, plain in speech and look with the same mundane struggles that many of us go through. Beautifully shot and rendered in a way that almost never lets go of the truth for dramatic purpose. Director Declan Recks holds Eugene O'Brien adaptation of his own stage play in check letting the story take us step by step through a journey that begun long before we arrived, but whose conclusion we feel privileged to bear witness to. It seems to take courage and allows us to have a realistic and honest hope or fear about our loves, lives and relationships these days. Eden walks you through it and forgives.
Religulos and Eden Day One Woodstock Film Festivals
Ok the first two films I saw couldn't be further apart from each other. One is a documentary; the other is a Dramatic narrative. One is American, the other is Irish. One is a rallying call to arms; the other is just a mournful call. There's a little bit of irony, however that one is called Religulos and the other is Eden . Here's my take on both of them.

Let me clarify: Slash is a CMS (Content Management System) that couples an article-management part with the great public comments part. All these texts are written in some specific language, so even if you plan to support let's say English, Italian and Spanish, you will have stories in English with attached comments in English and stories in Spanish with Spanish comments.
Therefore my solution is to have two (or more) slashsites with the same look but using different installations and server names, each serving content in a different language.
I really cannot see any other way: you can go as far as having the same story posted in multiple languages, but when you start to have comments, they are targeted to a specific language. And if you don't plan to have comments on stories, you're probably looking at the wrong CMS.
The only other way I can see is an heavy use of sections, each targeted to a specific language. There are some drawbacks in this: you cannot have "real" sections anymore (since there is no thing as a 2nd-level section), topic search returns stories in mixed languages, you have to fix daily mailing of headlines, etc. On the other side, you can have templates for a specific section, i.e. in a specific language.
Check out the Slash in Italian Project [kenobi.it]
I would wonder about the server impact, like translating large amounts of comments at the whim of a web surfer. I'd also be concerned about thing being lost in the translation; sometimes the "fish" makes for some funny translating

McGill Bird Observatory
The Avian Science and Conservation Centre (ASCC) is affiliated with the Department of Natural Resource Sciences in the Faculty of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences on the Macdonald campus of McGill University. Established in 1973, the centre's purpose is to foster a greater understanding of the biology, conservation, and management of birds through a multipurpose program of research and education. Major areas of research included behaviour, ecology, nutrition, toxicology, reproductive physiology, and parasitology of captive and wild birds, as well as captive breeding and management of endangered species. However, in 2011, the colony of captive-breeding American kestrels was disbanded and a new research focus was created ---- the application of Unmanned Vehicle Systems (UVS) to wildlife research and management (see Present Research). Also, in 2013, Dr. David Bird, the Director of the ASCC, retired as an Emeritus Professor, but still retains his position as director. Please note that while he is still very active in his research on UVS applications, he is no longer taking on any new graduate students.

Pierre-Antoine, I had another look at this. This is what we have now: ma:frameWidth a owl:DatatypeProperty; rdfs:domain [ a owl:Class; owl:intersectionOf ( ma:MediaResource [ owl:complementOf ma:AudioTrack ] ) ]; rdfs:range xsd:integer . Semantics: the property framewidth applies to all media resources but audio tracks vs. one of the proposed alternative options. ma:AudioTrack rdfs:subClassOf ma:MediaResource, [ a owl:Restriction ; owl:onProperty ma:frameHeight ; owl:cardinality 0 ], [ a owl:Restriction ; owl:onProperty ma:frameWidth ; owl:cardinality 0 ]. Semantics: Audio track doesn't have a frame height property I must admit that I still prefer the original implementation for an equivalent complexity. It sound more logical to me. All the best.

That looks interesting. Note also that an equivalent restriction would be ma:Image rdfs:subClassOf [ a owl:Restriction ; owl:onProperty ma:duration ; owl:allValuesFrom owl:Nothing ]. I am not very fond of this pattern, that I find a bit awkward, but I believe it is acceptable in more OWL dialects than the cardinality restriction. paReceived on Saturday, 28 August 2010 17:46:06 UTC

Tillman chosen captain of All-Fundamentals Team
Posted By:
Courtney Boeckman
Tuesday, January 22, 2013
Bears cornerback Charles Tillman has been named the defensive captain for USA Football's 2012 All-Fundamentals Team following a national fan vote conducted Jan. 7-21.
The fourth annual USA Football All-Fundamentals Team recognizes 26 NFL players who exhibit exemplary football techniques for youth players to emulate. The organization believes that playing fundamentally-sound football fosters better on-field performance and inherent safety benefits.
More than 10,000 fan votes were cast on USA Football's Facebook page to determine the team's three captains, one for each phase of the game. Joining Tillman (defense) as captains are Colts receiver Reggie Wayne (offense) and Browns kicker Phil Dawson (special teams).
Tillman earned the honor by garnering more votes than defensive ends Chris Long (Rams) and J.J. Watt (Texans); tackles Haloti Ngata (Ravens) and Vince Wilfork (Patriots); linebackers London Fletcher (Redskins), Chad Greenway (Vikings) and Aldon Smith (49ers); cornerback Champ Bailey (Broncos); and safeties Thomas DeCoud (Falcons) and Earl Thomas (Seahawks).
By being voted a captain, Tillman will receive an equipment grant valued at $3,000 from USA Football to donate to the youth or high school football program of his choice. Equipment grants are fulfilled by USA Football partners Rawlings and Riddell. USA Football is the official youth football development partners of the NFL and all 32 of its teams.
"Football never stands still, yet fundamentals are timeless," said USA Football chairman Carl Peterson, a longtime NFL executive who helped select the team. "Charles has demonstrated extraordinary fundamentals throughout his career. We're proud to recognize him as an All-Fundamentals Team captain."
Tillman enjoyed a career year in 2012; he was named first-team All Pro and was voted to his second straight Pro Bowl. The Bears cornerback tied for the NFL lead with three interception return touchdowns and topped the league with a career-high 10 forced fumbles, tied for the most in a single season since the NFL started tracking the statistic in 1991.
In the process, Tillman increased his career total to 39 forced fumbles, the most by any player since he entered the league in 2003. The next six players on the list are all pass-rush specialists: the Colts' Robert Mathis with 38; the Falcons' John Abraham and the Colts' Dwight Freeney with 35; and the Bears' Julius Peppers, the Giants' Osi Umenyiora and the Cowboys' DeMarcus Ware with 32.
Tillman also set all-time Bears records in 2012 for defensive touchdowns with nine and interceptions by a cornerback with 33, the third most overall in franchise history behind safeties Gary Fencik (38) and Richie Petitbon (37).
In originally naming Tillman to the All-Fundamentals Team, USA Football wrote that he "possesses strong fundamentals in both pass coverage and tackling. His ability to break on the ball makes it difficult for quarterbacks to find windows in which to throw to receivers. He also has the ability to secure tackles while simultaneously stripping the football from the ball-carrier."
USA Football has educated more than 100,000 youth football coaches in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. through its online courses and single-day coaching clinics. Approximately three million American children ages 6-14 play organized tackle football, placing it among the country's most popular youth sports.
USA Football recommends national standards for America's youth football community. As the sport's national governing body, USA Football hosts dozens of annual training events offering education for coaches, skill development for players and resources for league commissioners.
USA Football manages U.S. national teams within the sport for international competition and awards $1 million annually in equipment grants to youth and high school football programs.

- "The most important part about giving a good speech is believing in yourself... ...Perhaps one day... I will believe in myself... again. Very well. If learning how to give a great speech is what you seek, then I'd be happy to instruct you. In exchange, I would like for you to continue assisting me."
- —Toranosuke Yoshida to the protagonist, Persona 5
Toranosuke Yoshida is a character from Persona 5. He is attempting to seriously enter Japan's political system in order to start changing the country, but is having difficulties doing so.
Yoshida has slicked-back black hair, dark brown eyes and thick eyebrows. Yoshida wears his black business suit, yellow dotted red tie, white gloves and a green sash that reads "friendly society, bright future" (やさしい社会 あかるい未来, yasashii shakai akarui mirai)?.
Personality Edit
As a politician, Yoshida demonstrates impressive speech-giving skills, though due to his past, he naturally suffers from self-esteem issues, especially when someone calls him by his dreaded nickname "No-Good Tora." However, rather than be angry by such slanders, he remains calm and level-headed, even when he is faced against nay-sayers. This becomes bolstered through the protagonist's encouragements, eventually able to overcome his self-esteem issues.
As the Confidant progresses, Yoshida becomes more charismatic, eventually developing a sizable fanbase. He also holds no hostility towards Kuromoto, who was responsible for him being framed for embezzling funds, which surprises his old friends.
Yoshida also holds a high opinion of the Phantom Thieves of Hearts, showcasing an open mind and incredible insight: he correctly deduced that the Phantom Thieves were individuals who felt wronged by society in some way and seek to change it, even implying that they could be children. At the end of the Confidant, Yoshida reveals that he knows that the protagonist is a Phantom Thief himself, having discovered this through his mannerisms and responses.
Profile Edit
Persona 5Edit
Yoshida is an unpopular man who gives soapbox speeches outside of Shibuya Station. In the 20 years since he started, he's lost seven consecutive elections due to his tempestuous personality and political scandals. Given certain circumstances, considerably few people stop and listen to Yoshida's words, but his speeches are actually good. He is confronting the country's future with seriousness. The protagonist first meets Yoshida during the former's part-time job in the beef bowl restaurant. The protagonist can volunteer to aid in his public speech to build up the Confidant with him, during which it was revealed that the major scandal that destroyed his credibility was not his fault; his old mentor misappropriated funds for his own purposes and put the blame on Yoshida. By the end of the Confidant, Yoshida has managed to win a sizable base for his upcoming campaign and the real culprit behind the scandals is revealed, allowing him to confront problems head-on.
- "Staging your crimes with calling cards... It's hard to believe that a student could manage this alone. An adult—for example, someone talented enough to move people with words—perhaps they coached you. ...Isn't that right!?"
- —Sae Niijima talking about Toranosuke Yoshida, Persona 5
The protagonist can find Yoshida on May 6th in the Shibuya Station square. Then by working as a part-time employee in the beef bowl restaurant twice to meet him again. His Confidant relationship is unlocked after helping him out for the second time. Each time the protagonist has ranked up his bond, they will be rewarded 3 points of Charm as well.
This Confidant subplot requires the protagonist making public appearances, this means after issuing the calling card to the host of the penultimate Palace, the protagonist is barred from progressing this Confidant any more because the main plot requires the protagonist avoiding public attention.
Yoshida's farewell gift to the protagonist on the last day after maxing his Confidant is a Fountain Pen, which he apparently had used at the beginning of his political career. This item allows the protagonist access to all Negotiation skills once their Confidant has been established in New Game+.
|Occasionally ask for more money or items during negotiations.
|Allows you to ask for large amounts of money during negotiations.
|Occasionally raises the chances of an enemy giving you a rare item.
|Mind Control
|Occasionally lets you skip negotiation when attempting to obtain a Persona.
|Charismatic Speech
|Allows you to form contracts with higher level Shadows.
Gallery Edit
- Yoshida's name is very similar to Torajirō Yoshida (吉田 寅次郎), a short-lived but influential intellectual and careerist who nurtured many major activists of the Meiji Restoration.
- Another possible reference is Shigeru Yoshida (吉田 茂). Like Toranosuke, Shigeru was a member of the Liberal Democratic Party but forced to dissolute the congress and subsequently resign his post of prime minister for yelling "moron" at a Dietman of the opposite party during the conference of national budget.
- Toranosuke, aside from Sae Niijima, is the only Confidant outside of the Phantom Thieves to learn that the protagonist is a member of the Phantom Thieves without having him take the heart of someone who has been causing him grief. Rather, he discovers this through the protagonist's mannerisms.

The Ood Sphere was the ice-covered homeworld of the Ood.
Astronomical DataEdit
The Ood Sphere was one of the moons of a ringed planet, located in the same star system as the Sense Sphere, (home of the Sensorites), which was in the Horsehead Nebula. (TV: Planet of the Ood, DWAN: Doctor Who The Official Annual 2007) It was covered in mountains and high cliffs and seemed to be cold enough to have snow and permanent buildings made of ice. (TV: Planet of the Ood, The End of Time)
The Ood evolved and survived on the snowy planet in peace until the Second Great and Bountiful Human Empire arrived in the 39th century and enslaved them. The Ood were kept in Ood Operations on the planet, including the Ood Brain, which was found underneath the Northern Glacier of the planet. In 4126, after a rebellion and the intervention of the Tenth Doctor, Donna Noble and the Friends of the Ood, the Ood were freed and left to roam the planet, in peace once more. (TV: Planet of the Ood)
It only took the Ood a hundred years for them to establish fully a new Ood civilisation, with huge ice cities and a ruling council. The Doctor realised something was causing them to advance so quickly. (TV: The End of Time)

September's theme is Kyushu, the "nine states." It is the most southwesterly island in Japan and served as one of the earliest ports that traded and interacted with the outside world. Kyushu also has a subtropical climate that produces things like rice, wheat, mangoes, and sweet potatoes.
Mango Chiffon Cake
This is heavenly. Each chiffon cake is made with real mangoes.
The cake is soft, moist, and delicate. The mango filling is slightly tangy and beautifully complements the cake's creaminess. I am beyond elated that they included four of them!
Cruz Cookies
These are wafer-thin sandwich cookies with various filling. The name comes from the Portuguese word for "cross." Bokksu included three flavors: Original, Strawberry, and Coffee. All three taste amazing.
This is the coffee flavor. The word "cruz" and a cross is embossed on each wafer.
Kurobou Meimon
Kurobou (literally "black stick") is a traditional sweet made with 100% Kyushu-grown wheat, black sugar, and eggs. It's shaped like a biscotti, but the kurobou has a soft fluffy interior covered by a crispy exterior. This snack has a much sharper flavor compared to the smoother, more buttery sweetness of the mango chiffon cake.
Dondo Age Kyushu Soy Sauce Flavor
These are crunchy rice crackers covered in sweet soy sauce glaze. The crackers have a complex flavor– it gets savory, then sweet sweet, then savory, and there's even a little spicy kick on the back of my tongue! Every bite is a different experience.
The puffy, scalloped edges reminds me of popcorn.
Bontaname literally means pomelo candy. To me, this tastes like a cross between a mochi and a fruit snack– AKA, very delicious.
Each candy is wrapped in edible rice paper. Don't try to peel the paper off– it's too difficult to remove, plus it is meant to be eaten.
Kukicha means twig tea, and it's a green tea blend made of stems, stalks, and twigs. True to its name, this looks like it was collected from someone's backyard.
It smells like dried seaweed but, don't worry, it tastes very much like regular green tea. The earthy flavor complements the sweet snacks included in the box. My favorite combo is kukicha with the Cruz cookies.
Verdict: I am very pleased with the selection from Bokksu this month! Everything tasted delicious, but my favorite was the Mango Chiffon Cake. I counted 15 items total, so the cost breakdown is $2.60 per snack. This subscription continues to be a fun way to discover premium snacks while learning about Japanese culture!

From the colonial period to the present, the Mississippi River has impacted religious communities from Minnesota to the Gulf of Mexico. Exploring the religious landscape along the 2,530 miles of the largest river system in North America, the essays in Gods of the Mississippi make a compelling case for American religion in motion—not just from east to west, but also from north to south. With discussion of topics such as the religions of the Black Atlantic, religion and empire, antebellum religious movements, the Mormons at Nauvoo, black religion in the delta, Catholicism in the Deep South, and Johnny Cash and religion, this volume contributes to a richer understanding of this diverse, dynamic, and fluid religious world.
Michael Pasquier is Assistant Professor of Religious Studies at Louisiana State University. He is author of Fathers on the Frontier: French Missionaries and the Roman Catholic Priesthood in the United States, 1789-1870 and co-editor of the Journal of Southern Religion.

Dealing With Inconsiderate People; Being The Art of The Magickal Mindfuck
3 comments:
Very interesting story. How one does apply to be a student?ReplyDelete
This is a fantastic example of how the art of magick should be applied together with more mundane means to effect a result. Jason Miller is also a big proponent of this. Anyways, "Mr Asshat" learned an important lesson - don't persecute a Grimoiric magician! Even better, actual demonic entities were not directly conjured leaving asshat's every accusation groundless, enabling the neighborhood reconciliation to proceed without additional workings. I love the simplicity and precision with which this counter-attack was carried out. Bravo, very well done!ReplyDelete

Making Very Bad look oh so good on the big screen! The first look at the upcoming adaptation of Judith Viorst's classic children's book Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day has finally arrived!
Steve Carell and Jennifer Garner star as the parents of 11-year-old Alexander (played by Ed Oxenbould), who unlike in the book, spreads his horrible luck to his entire family. The clip reveals galore: Carell chasing a kangaroo in pirate garb, Garner tripping on a bike, and a science class that ends up in flames.
The film also features 16-year-old actress Bella Thorne, formerly of Disney's Shake It Up, which aired its series finale last year. In one of her first post-Disney roles, the 16-year-old redheaded star plays the girlfriend of Alexander's big brother—who accidentally offends her over the phone with a bratty comment meant for his sibling in the same room.
Rounding out the cast is Megan Mullally, Jennifer Coolidge and Donald Glover. The movie will hit theaters on October 10.

Giants get PTBNL or cash. More in a bit.
UPDATE: Frandsen's voice was quavering 10 minutes after he was told of the deal.
"I'm going from one class organization to another," he said. "I'm pretty lucky on that. You can hear my voice is kind of shaking. It's a little different knowing I came up in this organization that I followed every step of the way since I was a kid. It's bittersweet."
It was pretty clear there was no spot for Frandsen on the roster. He wasn't going to make the team and the Giants need his 40-man spot on the roster.
General manager Brian Sabean said he has had "off and on" talks with the Red Sox for a while. Boston might have a need for an extra middle infielder because of a wrist injury to starting shortstop Dustin Pedroia, who happens to be good friends with Frandsen. They have trained together in Phoenix for the last six winters.
"I think Kevin is going to benefit from a change of scenery," Sabean said. "He's been under a lot of pressure since his Achilles situation. The pressure has been very hard to make the hometown team. We have other options internally we have identified."
Frandsen's teammates treated the news with the proper respect.
Edgar Renteria, hearing the Giants got a player to be named or cash, shouted at Frandsen, "That's all? You suck."
But there also were lots of hugs and a great word of encouragement from Aubrey Huff, who has played most of his career in the American League.
"Play well there and you're a god," Huff said.
Said Frandsen, "Maybe the exact opportunity was not there for me here, but I got an opportunity to play in the big-leagues with the Giants. Not everyone in the Bay Area can say that. I lived the dream for every Giants fan and I cherished every minute of it."

The Tustin school board has approved funds for the district to move toward construction at Tustin High School and Hewes Middle School.
Balfour Beatty Construction was awarded the consultant fees for pre-construction at both schools, which includes plans for a two-story building and improvements to five classrooms at Tustin High School, as well as improvements to five Hewes Middle School science classrooms.
Total fees for Tustin High School were approved not to exceed $65,058, and Hewes Middle School's fees were set not to exceed $57,404.
Both payments were taken from the general obligation bond fund budget and scheduled by David Miranda, the school district's senior director of maintenance, operations and facilities.
Though there is no physical work being done at the schools at this time, Miranda said all the work is meant to ensure that the architect's design can be built while also looking into cost reductions.
Miranda said the construction at Tustin High has been part of a Comprehensive Master Plan, that was devised by the school district with the input from the community when Measure L passed in 2008.
Measure L provides $95 million to modernize Tustin public schools that have fallen into disrepair.
As of October 2013, Miranda said that $29 million remains in the Measure L budget and that the district has allocated $17 million to go to Tustin High.
Of that $17 million, an estimated $9.5 million will be used for the construction.
The future Tustin High construction includes a two-story building that would house social science classrooms and a model United Nations room.
The construction will include a modernization overhaul of five classrooms not connected to the two-story building.
The architectural designs for Tustin High were created by NTD Architecture for $582,000, Miranda said.
The Hewes Middle School modernization was outlined when Measure S passed in 2012.
Construction will focus on upgrading computers, wireless technology, projectors and other classroom technologies in five science classrooms.
The estimated construction fees of $2.5 million will be taken from the Measure S funds, Miranda said.
Hewes Middle School Principal Michele Boudreaux said the construction would upgrade the outdated classroom technology and that Measure S funds will speed up construction compared to other means of raising funds.
"If my PTA was paying for it and raising money for it, it was going to be a slow process," Boudreaux said.
Architectural designs for the new Hewes Middle School classrooms were created by Ghataode Bannon Architects for $132,525, Miranda said, and the look of the science rooms will be modeled after the Currie Middle School science classrooms.
As of October, $100 million remains in the Measure S budget, said Miranda and Joslyn Crawford, director of fiscal services for the district.
Construction at Hewes Middle School and Tustin High School is to start in summer.
Hewes Middle School: $2.5 million.

text: I bought a Hawk E-Z Tune Diagnostic Analyser. The pointer does not move, so I figured the battery was dead. When I opened it, I found 2 battery holders: 1 for a 9v battery and another that seems to be for 2 separate AA batteries (I had 4 wires coming off of it). Problem is, there isn't room in the thing for both a 9v and the 2 AA batteries. I think someone has messed with the internals. Anyone have one of these? Should it only have the 9v battery? Anyone able to get me a shot of the back with the cover off?

Henry County, Georgia
Genealogy - Part of the Genealogy Trails Group Always Free, Always Updating
Welcome to Henry County, Georgia Genealogy Trails.
Our goal is helping you find your ancestors by placing data online for the
Free use of all researchers. We are proud to expand
into Georgia providing our "experience" gained from years of
researching our ancestors and website hosting. We want to hear about
you and the history of your ancestors. We need help with contributions of
your data, history and stories to make this a great site for
research. Everything is helpful: Obituaries, Biographies, Photos and
County History, to name a few.
Created May 15, 1821. The county seat is McDonough, Georgia.
Henry County, Georgia was created by the Georgia State Legislature in 1821 from land acquired from the Creek Indian Nation by the First Treaty of Indian Springs. Henry's original land area was much larger than it is today, stretching from near Indian Springs in the south to the Chattahoochee River near Sandy Springs in the north; encompassing most of present day Metropolitan Atlanta. Before one year passed the size of the County was diminished through the separation of land areas which, in whole or in part, became present day DeKalb, Fulton, Fayette and Newton Counties. Later divisions resulted in Clayton, Spalding, Rockdale and Butts Counties.
This county is available for adoption
