For communities in remote areas where the road infrastructure may be rudimentary or affected by seasonal weather, the journey to a primary care medical facility can require days of travel. Helicopter is often the only practical means of transportation between the remote community and primary care facility. Helicopter service providers often operate the helicopter in multiple roles and require quick role-change solutions to rapidly reconfigure an aircraft in the field.
GVH Aerospace was presented with the challenge of designing a role change stretcher system that can carry two patients for the Bell 412 helicopter operator. The limited cabin space in the helicopter required a double-tier stretcher stacker. This design maximised the patient carriage capacity while maintaining a smaller cabin footprint, and allowed the aeromedical crew to attend to each patient without needing to lean over the other. The resulted in:
- Increased patient carrying capacity
- Quick role-change fitment in the field
- Increased operational flexibility for aircraft tasking
This double-tier stretcher system is currently approved for installation on the Bell 205A, 212, 412 and 412 EP helicopters as a CASA STC.

Your Essential Guide on What to Wear on a Cruise
Your Essential Guide on What to Wear on a Cruise
If you have never cruised before and have no idea on what to wear on a cruise, or are venturing on board a new cruise line, it can be bewildering to know what is best to pack. We don't want you filling your suitcase with lots of unnecessary clothes, shoes and accessories, so we have decided to give you our Cruise Attire 101. Hopefully it will be a helping hand to simplify planning all your outfits and make the preparation for your cruise as stress-free as possible.
Traditionally, cruisers were required to pack more relaxed, casual wear for daytime activities onboard their cruise ship, as well as a wardrobe for any onshore excursions - and this was all before they had even begun to consider what evening wear was required. Evenings on a cruise ship would, as a matter of course, have required a particularly high standard of dress code. Picture hugely elegant restaurants and lounges filled with men dressed to the nines in their dinner jackets and suits, alongside ladies draped in evening gowns and glittering with glamour. These enchanting, charismatic, yet formal dining must-dos are soon to be a thing of the past for many major cruise lines, who are introducing a more informal, wear what you like dress code.
Cruise companies such as Carnival Cruises, Hurtigruten, Norwegian Cruise Line, Royal Caribbean International and MSC Cruises all promote the more relaxed way of cruising, allowing passengers to dress the way the are most comfortable. This new, more flexible approach to cruise wear gives guests the option to feel comfortable in casual clothes for dining at night or, if they wish, to dress to impress for a more formal evening onboard. So whether you're looking to just grab a quick bite to eat at night on your cruise, or a have a much more sophisticated experience in mind, the choice really is yours!
For more information on dress code policies, as well as dining options onboard your next cruise, contact our cruising experts on Freephone 0800 484 0370.

The smash hit show Rip it Up - The 60's prepares for its West End transfer! Harry Judd, Aston Merrygold, Louis Smith and Jay McGuiness come to The Garrick Theatre in the ultimate Strictly boyband as they sign up for a 16 week London Engagement from the 7 February 2019!The ultimate Strictly boy band of dance bring their spectacular show to London's West End next February. A huge success for the Strictly celebrities, Rip it Up - The 60's brings the decade smashing into the 21st century through an explosion of song, dance, acrobatics and amazing visuals to celebrate the most revolutionary cultural period ever in its first ever West End run, opening at the Garrick Theatrefor four months from the 7th February 2019.
Following a highly successful 2018 UK wide tour, McFly's Harry Judd, JLS's Aston Merrygold and Olympic gymnast Louis Smith, will be joined in London by The Wanted's Jay McGuiness and are paired alongside an incredible cast of dancers, singers and the Rip it Up - The 60's live band to entertain with a psychedelic mix of music, style, culture, and fashion. With Aston and Jay singing, Harry on drums, and Louis performing the amazing gymnastic feats that made him one of our most successful Olympians, at the beating heart of the show is the fab four's phenomenal dancing talent. Following the hugely successful 2017 tour Rip It Up - The 50s Jay McGuiness returns to the Rip it Up - The 60's family and joins Louis Smith, Aston Merrigold and Harry Judd in the West End next spring making up an awesome foursome. Formerly one fifth of The Wanted who celebrated worldwide success with hits such as All Time Low and Glad You Came, Jay stole the hearts of the nation as he took to the dancefloor with professional partner Aliona Vilani to become the 13th champion of Strictly Come Dancing in 2015.
Jay says: 'I'm really looking forward to joining the cast as the undoubtedly best-looking member! Louis, Aston and Harry put on an amazing show touring with the 60's and I'm so grateful to be joining them. I can't wait for me and the lads to sit right in the middle of the West End and Rip. It. Up'.Drummer Harry Judd was part of the worldwide pop phenomenon McFly and McBusted, with 7 number one singles, 19 top 10 singles, 2 number one albums, a bestselling book and a BRIT Award. He has played countless sell-out arena tours, toured the world with One Direction and starred in Hollywood film Just My Luck.

Harry says: 'I love to dance. Along with playing in a band, there's no better feeling than being on stage dancing. I was brought up listening to '60s music by my parents, which has made the whole show even more special to be a part of. Aston and Louis are both incredible performers, so I am looking forward to taking the show to the West End stage, and to welcoming Jay to the group'Pop star Aston Merrygold has sold over 6 million records in the UK and over 10 million worldwide and is the recipient of Two BRIT Awards and 5 MOBO's as part of the hugely successful boy band JLS, who rose to fame as runners-up on the X Factor in 2008.

Aston continues to release music as a solo artist, his last single 'Precious' featured Shy Carter (Meghan Trainor, Jason Derulo, Charlie Puth, Faith Hill, Tim McGraw) and Grammy Award-winning beat boxer Rhazel. His debut single 'Get Stupid' was an international hit and his EP was released in 2017 along with a sell-out UK tour.Aston says: 'It was so exciting to join the cast of Rip it Up - The 60's on the 2018 UK tour. I felt like I had some unfinished business when it came to dance, and it's been amazing to work with familiar faces. I've loved putting my own spin on some classic 60s moments and can't wait to show that to a West End audience!'Louis shot to fame in 2008 when he put British Gymnastics on the map by winning a Bronze medal in the pommel horse at the Beijing Olympics, the first Olympic medal for a British gymnast in 100 years. The British sporting superstar counts 4 Olympic medals from 3 separate Olympic Games amongst his career highlights, most recently winning a Silver Medal in the Rio De Janeiro Olympic Games in 2016.

Earlier today Louis announced his retirement from the world of gymnastics.Following the London 2012 Olympic Games, Louis took part in and won, that year's Strictly Come Dancing, lifting the coveted Glitterball trophy with his professional dance partner Flavia Cacace. He also won the Strictly Christmas special in 2014 with his professional dance partner Aliona Vilani.Of today's announcement Louis says: 'I'm over the moon to be joining the cast for Rip it Up - The 60's again, and especially now in the West End. Being a part of the tour was incredible. To be among such talented people and receive the response that we did every night is something I never took for granted and now I'm just so excited to take things up another gear and put on a show worthy of the West End.

For over a decade or so we have been using GNU Cash to keep track of our personal finances. We, and by "we" I mean Mary Lou, have been meticulously recording every expenditure from mortgage payments to sodas from the gas station and reconciling them with our bank statements. As we tend to use credit cards for the points, each purchase involves 4 entries in the ledgers (debit from the credit card, payment to expenses, debit from the checking account, payment to the bills envelope (virtual account within checking)). As life gets more and more hectic, this is becoming less and less appealing. We have also struggled with the granularity of our envelopes and expense categories, continually tweaking them to balance between simple entry and detailed reports.
A friend recently reported using Mint.com and being a fan of their automated expense categories. They have a number of appealing features – like mobile access, email notifications, and lots of useful reports. These are things I either can't do or take too much time with our current system. However, the aggregated financial service scares me from a security perspective.
Mint claims no money can be moved around from within Mint. OK good. Let's assume for a moment that they have reasonable encryption and security processes in place to prevent a hacker from mining my passwords to my financial institutions. There is still the risk of exposing our financial information to anyone who manages to acquire our Mint.com password. Single point of failure. I'm not sure exactly how much damage someone could do with the read-only access, but I'm sure someone more clever than me can come up with some way to do something devious with it.
To address the common defense of "Mint.com is far more secure than the average laptop." Undoubtedly true. They aren't more secure than MY laptop though, at least not by much. They are also a much MUCH bigger target than the average laptop since there is so much bigger a reward waiting for a would be hacker than pictures of grand kids and a few weeks worth of CPU cycles for the latest bot net.
Now stepping back and not making the assumption of good security practices at Mint.com. Let's assume they have every intent of having good security protocols in place, that doesn't guarantee successful implementation of said protocols. So if some new guy, or even their senior security gal who had a late night, introduced a bug which caused the plain text password to be stored in an identifiable memory address for a short period of time and some creative villain noticed and managed to glean a few of these passwords, the results could obviously be catastrophic for those users.
So to all of those of you who are more security savvy than I am on a deeply technical level, please weigh in here and let me know your thoughts. I'd like to use the service, but I need to be convinced the risk is a reasonable one first.
4 Responses to "Looking to simplify personal finances"
I did the gnucash thing for a while back in the early 2000's and switching to mint just wasn't a huge improvement for me. It categorizes stuff fairly well, but you still have to check it all over and make sure it did it right. Then it freaked out at one point and duplicated *everything* and that was a real pain (you can google that, lots of people had that problem). If you are worried about the security, the bugginess will probably bother you a lot, I'm just guessing. I'll admit I haven't used it much lately, maybe they have cleaned things up.
Personally, I had a lot of the same feelings about the security (my computers too are more secure than average, thank you), but I figured that when scrutinizing the transactions regularly I'd probably catch something amiss quickly and if the banks, credit cards, and mint want to keep me as a customer (and they really do) they wouldn't hold me liable for any fraudulent activity. I've already seen that in action when someone started buying expensive sporting goods back east with my credit card number (not sure how they got it). Disconcerting, but I was apologized to and things got fixed pretty quickly.

|Welcome to the nicest smelling corner of my room...
Sometimes it's easy to overlook the joys of a fragrant room, a comfy armchair, a cup of tea, a good book, and flowers fresh from the garden - especially when other shiny objects seem to call my name. I've been reminded not to dismiss these little luxuries in favour of buying another lipstick or pair of shoes. They are - for the most part - far more affordable to begin with, and the perfect way to relax after a long, stressful day. Strapping on a pair of heels or swiping on a bright lippie just doesn't compare (not in this instance, anyway)!

I have been embroiled in a family crisis for the last few months and it has not been a lot of fun. However, I've learned or rather re-learned one or two valuable lessons– which is a good thing. When you have to suffer through a difficult time, you may as well get something out of it besides insomnia!
Trust is the bedrock of all successful relationships
That is what is prompting the subject of this post—trust. Trust is the bedrock of all successful relationships. If the trust goes away, it takes something to re-build it and in the meantime, the relationship is rocky at best. And it makes no difference whether the relationship is in your personal life or at work. The principles of building trust in a relationship are the same. And trust in the workplace is essential to getting your job done more successfully and easily. Most of the time when breakdowns happen at work it's because trust has been broken,on some level. Think of any problem that you are now having at work and I'll bet that there is a relationship breakdown somewhere in the chain that could be fixed with a good dose of trust-building. [Read more…]

In late September 1999 I went for my annual medical check-up. The blood test results showed that my prostate specific antigen(PSA) level had risen from 2.5 fifteen months earlier to 5.1. This concerned my doctor sufficiently that she had me get an ultrasound and a biopsy. The biopsy result were positive. The Gleason rating was 5 on the right side and 2 on the left side of the prostate. This was quite a shock to me. Even though I knew that most men are eventually confronted with this problem, it was hard to accept that it was happening to ME!. Because I have learned a huge amount about the subject from other men's experiences, here is my own--perhaps it will be helpful to someone else.
At diagnosis, my doctor said I had four options:
I then went to see a dear friend of more than twenty-five years who lives in Halifax, Nova Scotia. She is an alternative/cooperative medical practitioner, has an extensive practice, and has a reputation as one of the best alternative practitioners in Atlantic Canada. She suggested that I had a fifth option which wass to strengthen my immune system so that it eliminates the cancer. She tested me for a wide variety of supplements and from that set me up on a daily regimen of herbs, vitamins, supplements and modified citrus pectin--which research has shown retards/prevents metastasis. In order to determine the kind and amounts of supplements which would be most appropriate, she used applied kinesiology which is a muscle testing method which communicates with the body below the level of conscious thought. This approach is regularly used by many chiropractors and naturopaths.
At my doctor's recommendation I got a bone scan and a CAT scan the results of both of which were negative.
Again, at my doctor's request, I went to Dr. Mostwin, one of the leading urologists at Johns Hopkins Urological Clinic. His pathologist read the biopsy slides and concluded that the Gleason rating was 3 on each side of my prostate for a total of 6. Dr. Mostwin recommended a prostatectomy and suggested that I schedule myself at once so that I could have the surgery done by him within the next two months. Because I did not schedule myself right then as he recommended, I received two subsequent calls from the clinic over the next two months asking if I was yet ready to schedule myself for the surgery. I declined.
Simultaneous to this I bought and read more than a dozen books on prostate cancer, (Amazon.com listed 67 different titles) and read several articles on the subject. I also acquired the names of five men who had been diagnosed as having prostate cancer and would be open to my calling and talking to them. My discussion with these men was most helpful. I learned that:
Based on reading the book New Guidelines for Surviving Prostate Cancer by James Lewis, Ph.D. and E. Roy Berger, M.D., I called The Education Center for Prostate Cancer Patients which was founded by James Lewis, one of the authors. I joined the center with a $100 donation and had an immediate telephone consultation with James Lewis. He advised me that the bone and cat scans were not useful in identifying metastasis unless my PSA was at least 10 for the bone and at least 20 for the cat scans. He suggested that I should get an MRSI which he says has only a 3% error rate. It costs about $2000 and is done in San Francisco by a Dr. Kurhanewicz. Lewis maintained that this is the only way to really be sure that the cancer is still localized in the prostate capsule and no metastasis has taken place.
I then read a book entitled Prostate Health in 90 Days Without Drugs or Surgery by Larry Clapp, PhD, JD. This book maintains that if your pH is in good balance then no disease (including cancer) can live in you. The basic recommendation of this book is to find a person certified to do a BTA test, get the test done, and then follow the 90-day Ultimate Clean Out Program recommended and outlined in the book. At the end of 90 days go get retested on the BTA test and see how close you have come to optimum pH balance.
I then called Jim Lewis back at The Education Center for Prostate Cancer Patients and asked him:
I also located a Dr. Hutto in Washington, DC who was certified to give the BTA test., Later in November I went to Dr. Hutto for the BTA test and I now have a copy of those results. He very much wanted to engage me as a patient and see me weekly, but I just opted for the BTA test that I'm using together with my PSA readings as part of my baseline to track the cancer. He also did a Darkfield Microscopy Live Blood Cell Analysis (I have video of that test - should I get that done again, a comparison of the two analyses would apparently indicate any change worth noting). The BTA cost $125. The Live Blood Cell Analysis also cost $125. Total $250.
Meanwhile, in mid November I got another PSA blood test done. Results PSA 2.6
In mid December I went back to my own doctor for a consult. I told her that I had decided to pursue a non-traditional strategy to address the prostate cancer. That strategy was:
She said she was fine if I followed this strategy but wanted me to get the biopsy in six months instead of a year. Her stance is admittedly conservative and she would have preferred that I immediately get radiation or go out to Loma Linda University in California for Proton Radiation Therapy, or at least get radiation seed implant therapy. I told her that if my PSA went up into double figures I would begin to look into those alternatives.
Since that time, now a bit over three years, I had my PSA checked monthly or bimonthly for two years, and then, since it has maintained readings in the 2s, 3s, and 4s, I now have it checked quarterly. Also during that time I have had two ultrasounds which have indicated no additional growth in the size of my prostate. At the last visit, the radiologist recommended against another biopsy because it is a highly invasive test. (The ultrasound is medical sodomy, the biopsy is medical sodomy with weapons.) I have also had annual DREs (digital rectal exams) which have indicated no further prostate swelling or growth. I also talked to an oncologist about my strategy. His response was that he'd recommend a prostatectomy, but had to admit that the PSA readings and the ultrasounds would indicate that I was at least controlling the cancer.
I have visited my alternative/cooperative medical practitioner friend in Halifax annually for retesting and modifications in my supplement formula. On the last visit I tested cancer free. She would like me to take the supplements for another year and then get another biopsy to verify that I am cancer free. (It is interesting to note that when I brought her one of the books I mention below, The Natural Prostate Cure by Roger Mason, we found she already had 16 of the 17 supplements he recommends in my formula, plus 3 he did not mention.)
To date I have been most pleased with the response I've taken to learning that I had prostate cancer. I continue to get my PSA checked quarterly, to get annual ultrasounds, and to do the 8 day clean out fast twice a year. I have not followed up on the BTA test or the Darkfield Microscopy Live Blood Cell Analysis because I am satisfied that my PSA and ultrasound results are sufficiently positive to render the other testing unnecessary. I'm also reluctant to get another biopsy for the same reason.
I have no idea whether such an approach would be helpful to or work for others. I am aware that my 5.1 PSA which prompted the biopsy was not terribly high. Some of the men I talked to who had been diagnosed with prostate cancer had PSAs of 68 and even higher. I have now been asked by many men what I did and what I'd recommend as a strategy to respond to a positive prostate cancer biopsy. I can't recommend what others should do, but based on what I've learned over the last three years, if I had to do it over, here's what I'd do:
I know that there are no statistics on the type of approach I've chosen, although I believe that a research study of alternative treatments for prostate cancer is being done by the National Institute of Health. I don't have statistics on the pros and cons and life expectancy of men who chose surgery or radiation or chemotherapy or hormone therapy, but my guess is I'd be listed among those who chose to do nothing at all. I am not an expert on prostate cancer, nor do I know whether I'll ever have any further trouble with it. I hope my experience may provide information that is helpful to others.
Editor's Note: At the urging of his alternative/cooperative medical practitioner, Bill had another biopsy done at the end of 5 years (September, 2004). The Gleason score was still 7 (3+4), still a "good" 7 according to his urologist, but showing some progression. Bill and his alternative practitioner concluded that the 5-year supplement regimen had held the cancer in check, but some underlying condition persisted to prevent it from going away. Perhaps if he had drastically changed his diet it would have. Nonetheless, they and the urologist concluded that since Bill was otherwise in excellent health it didn't make sense to fool around but rather yank it out while it was still completely localized. The prostatectomy was done without incident in October 2004, with no signs of cancer cells beyond the margin. His PSA now remains virtually undetectable.

The resonant frequencies of a single cavity embedded in the three-dimensional layer-by-layer photonic crystal are studied with microwave experiments and transfer-scattering matrix method simulations. The effects of the number of cladding layers and the size of the embedded cavity on resonant frequencies and Q values are carefully examined. The fine increments of cavity size indicate a new pattern of relation between resonant frequencies and cavity sizes.

So, I've decided to post up my signature recipe for mushroom burgers. I make this one frequently in the summer (and often in the winter) and it's my favourite from-scratch recipe since I became vegetarian, though I sometimes substitute pre-made alternatives if I'm particularly tired – usually the wedges. At a first glance, it may look like a lot of ingredients, but this recipe is so versatile you can swap and change almost every element with whatever is in your cupboard/fridge; usually all I really need to buy is mushrooms, buns and potato.
Below I've given my core recipe and the one I make most often, but I'll often swap things; switch the sweet potato for regular potato, or courgette; pick any cheese you like (even cream cheese – we had it with Boursin the other day, mixed into the stuffing, and it was delish); swap the avocado for hummus, or leave it out altogether.
Serves 2
For the Wedges
2 medium sweet potatoes
1 tablespoon oil
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
For the Burgers
2 Portobello mushrooms
1 tablespoon breadcrumbs or 1 teaspoon flour
handful basil (optional)
2 slices/handful grated cheese
To Serve
Knob of butter
2 brioche buns
1 avocado
½ lemon, or 2 teaspoons of lemon juice
3 tablespoons Greek-style yogurt
½ teaspoon harissa
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Preheat the oven to 200˚C.
For the Wedges
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut into chunky wedges, or chips as you prefer. Place in a glass bowl (you don't want to use a plastic one, as it will stain), pour over the oil and sprinkle over the spices. Feel free to experiment with different spice blends as you prefer. Mix together thoroughly, adding more oil if needed to coat the wedges. Tip into a large pan and roast in the oven for 30–40 minutes until cooked through.
For the Burgers
Meanwhile, remove the stems from the mushrooms and place in a food processor with the breadcrumbs or flour and basil, if using. Season and pulse a few times to dice (don't blend to a paste). Alternatively you can finely dice by hand. Spoon this mixture into the cups of the mushrooms and press down, then top each with a slice of cheese.
Place in the oven to roast for 5–10 minutes until the cheese has melted (if you've picked a melty cheese) and the mushroom is cooked. If you're super speedy, you might want to wait until the potatoes have 10 minutes left on the timer, so everything in the oven is ready at the same time.
To Serve
Halve the brioche buns. Melt a knob of butter in a large frying pan and lightly toast the brioche on the cut side. Alternatively, spread with butter and toast in a toaster, or just have plain.
While everything is in the oven, prepare the avocado. Scrape the flesh into a food processor and add a squeeze of lemon, pinch of sea salt and a few twists of freshly ground black pepper. Blitz for a few seconds until chunky but not smooth. Alternatively, mash by hand or, if you prefer it unsmashed, simply slice and dress with the lemon juice and sea salt.
Spoon the yogurt into a small bowl, add a squeeze of lemon and the harissa, then season. Mix together roughly.
By now the wedges and mushroom should be done. Assemble everything on two plates – I like to smear the top and bottom buns with the yogurt mixture, then put a mushroom with avocado on top. I'll usually spoon some extra yogurt on the side as a dip to have with the wedges. Enjoy!

- Information provided in this installation guide is intended as a quick reference only and does not supersede requirements specified on project plans.
- The trench or ditch should be wide enough to place and compact backfill around then entire pipe.
- Refer to Table for recommended minimum trench widths. The design engineer may modify the trench width based on site specific conditions.
- For parallel pipe installations, allow space between pipes for proper compaction. Refer to Figure for minimum pipe spacing. *Spacing will differ for retention/detention systems due to the intended use of this product.
- Trench or ditch bottoms containing bedrock, soft muck or refuse, or other material unable to provide long-term uniform pipe support are unacceptable.
- All unsuitable foundation shall be excavated before pipe installation proceeds.
- Where rock or unyielding or soft foundation is present, the design engineer shall be contacted to determine the extent of excavation required.
- If native soil can migrate into backfill, use synthetic fabric (geotextile) to separate native soil from backfill.
Trench Boxes:
Trench boxes provide a safe work area to install pipe in deep trenches or in soils that have insufficient stability. Always follow OSHA requirements when using a trench box.
The length of the trench box should be suitable for the pipe length. Nominal length for dual wall HDPE pipe is 6m although shorter lengths can be supplied.
The most effective way to maintain a sound system is to provide a 'subtrench' within which to place the pipe and backfill. The subtrench shall not be greater than 24" above the bottom on the trench as shown in Figure. Backfill and compact according to the design specifications within the subtrench. The trench box can be pulled along the top edge of the subtrench without affecting the backfill in the pipe embedment zone.
In installations not involving a subtrench, dragging a trench box should only be done if it does not damage the pipe or disrupt the backfill; otherwise, the box should be lifted vertically into its new position, again taking great care not to disturb the pipe or backfill.

Santissime Stimmate di San Francesco is an 18th century confraternity church at Largo delle Stimmate 1 in the rione Pigna. Pictures of the church at Wikimedia Commons here. There is an English Wikipedia page here.
The dedication is to the Stigmata of St Francis of Assisi.
As with many churches in the locality, the origins of this one are unknown. The earliest evidence for it is a transcribed epigraph of 1298, detailing the indulgences and relics attached to the church Santi Quadraginta Martirum dei Calcarari. This was dedicated to the Forty Martyrs of Sebaste, a group of Roman soldiers martyred at Sebaste (now Sivas in Turkey) in 320 by Licinus.
A calcararius was one who made calx, or lime for mortar and plaster. The name is taken as historical evidence that lime-makers worked their kilns in the area in the early Middle Ages (the lost nearby church of San Nicola dei Cesarini formerly had the same suffix). To Classicists this industry was one of the tragedies of medieval Rome, as a great number of marble statues and architectural elements were burnt to provide lime for construction.
The church seems to have had an uneventful history as one of the small parish churches of the mediaeval built-up area, being dependent on the old titulus of San Marco. In the 16th century there is a reference to it with the name of Santi Quaranta de Lenis, after a local noble family.
The mediaeval city had too many parish churches, and many were given over to other uses from the 16th century onwards. In 1597, Pope Clement VIII gave this one to the Confraternita delle Santissime Stimmate ("Confraternity of the Stigmata of St Francis"), which had been founded at the Franciscan convent church of San Pietro in Montorio in 1594 by one Federico Pizzi who was a surgeon.
Stigmata is a Greek word meaning 'marks' or 'signs', and in a Christian context they refer to the wounds of Christ Crucified. In the history of the Church some pious believers have miraculously received such wounds, and these have traditionally been regarded as a sign of holiness. In some cases the authenticity of the wounds is contested and in most the Church has given no official opinion, but in the case of St Francis the existence of a liturgical feast celebrating his wounds indicates that the Church considers that they were true stigmata given by Christ. His is the first recorded case.
The pious confraternity was one of many founded for laypeople at the time, in order to further devotion, to help poor people through charitable works and to provide insurance backup for their members in time of need.
In 1713, the archconfraternity (as it had become in the previous century) decided to rebuild the church. The approval of Pope Clement XI was obtained, and work started the following year. The architect was Giovan Battista Contini, of the school of Bernini, who finished the main edifice in 1717. Antonio Canevari took over in 1719, and added the façade. In 1721 the completed church was consecrated to the Stigmata of St Francis, but a chapel was reserved for the Forty Martyrs. This was standard practice at the time for when a church was demolished and replaced by another one with a different dedication.
As a parish church the old edifice had burial rites, and very usefully these were passed on to the new one. You can see lots of burial slabs in the floor inside.
Modern timesEdit
The church has remained in the possession of the archconfraternity ever since. There was a major restoration in 1869 by Andrea Busiri Vici, who was a member.
For a period until the end of the 20th century it was served by Franciscan Capuchins, but it is now under the charge of a diocesan priest called Don Fabio Rosini. He is the chaplain of the archconfraternity, and is also involved in work for diocesan vocations to the priesthood.
The archconfraternity is not based here, but at Piazza di San Giovanni in Laterano 6/A. It has a very low profile publicly, and no online presence at all which nowadays is odd.
Layout and fabricEdit
The brick edifice is on a simple rectangular plan, of five bays. First comes an internal loggia, with the confraternity offices above and behind the second storey of the façade. Then there is a nave of three bays, with narrow side aisles divided into side chapels by blocking walls. Then there is the shallow rectangular sanctuary, which has two lower side-chambers as structural continuations of the side aisles. There is no apse.
The offices, nave and sanctuary have separate pitched and tiled roofs. The external walls butt onto neighbouring buildings and are invisible from the street.
The campanile has a very interesting design, but unfortunately is almost invisible. It cannot be seen from the street and online photos (such as on the info.roma page), showing it peeping over the roof of the church, were taken from an upper storey of the Palazzo Maffei Marescotti which is to the north.
The location is over the top right hand corner of the nave. It has the plan of a chamfered square, with each face having a large arched soundhole. The cut-off corners are occupied by three-sided Ionic pilasters, each with four volutes connected by swags and hugged by semi-columns in the same style. These pilasters and semi-columns support posts which in turn support an omega cornice (Ω) on each side, the semi-circular curve of each passing over a six-winged putto's head between it and the soundhole below.
There is a lead cupola in the shape of an incurved pyramid, with a flared cornice a third of the way up. Info.roma seem to think that this is rococo -they are entitled to their opinion.
The façade was designed by Antonio Canevari, and is rendered in creamy white with two storeys. The first storey fronts the internal loggia and has three entrances, the central one of which is much larger and has an arch with a molded archivolt. These entrances are separated by two twin pairs of Composite pilasters with rather stylized capitals, doubletted along their outer edges. A pair of tripletted pilasters occupy the outer corners.
These pilasters support an entablature separating the storeys, the frieze of which has a dedicatory inscription: S[ancti] Francisci sacris stigmatibus Xri[sti] insignito d[icatum].
The side entrances are simple rectangular portals, over which is a pair of almost square window apertures.
The second storey is the same width as the first, and is on an attic plinth which has a pair of windows. It has the same arrangement of pilasters as the storey below, except that these have swags on their capitals instead of stylized acanthus leaves. Over the two inner pilaster pairs is a small triangular pediment, and in between them is a large rectangular window with a dished frame. The sides of the dish comprise another pair of pilasters, on the diagonal, and the on these is a dished and molded archivolt occupying almost all of the tympanum of the pediment. This creates its own tympanum between the archivolt and window, which contains a six-winged (that is, seraphic) putto's head in a stucco glory. This is the emblem of the archconfraternity. A pair of three-winged side-on putto's heads are in the upper corners of the window.
Between the inner pilaster pairs and the outer corner pilasters is a pair of smaller rectangular windows with segmental pediments broken at the top. Into the breaks are inserted two more windows, round-headed with floating omega cornices. This is an unusual design feature.
So far, the façade has been unremarkable. The really interesting bit is in front of the attic plinth over the entablature above the pilaster pairs flanking the main entrance. A broken segmental pediment with curlicues on the breaks contains a large stucco statue of St Francis Receiving the Stigmata by Antonio Raggi, which partly obscures the central window.
The central finial on the tip of the crowning pediment has the usual metal cross, but below it is a pair of crossed arms in sheet metal. This is the emblem of the Franciscan order.
Beyond the portals is an entrance loggia, which contains a very good neo-Classical monument to Palmira Petrachia and her son Enrico by Adamo Tadolini, 1844.
On the nave frontage are two tablets with red marble frames, one commemorating a benefaction to the church in 1673 and the other its rebuilding in 1715.
The church itself has the one entrance doorway.
The single nave has three chapels on each side, and the plan of a rectangle with rounded corners. The chapels are entered through arched openings with molded archivolts springing from Doric impost pilasters, and the two wide piers separating the chapels on each side have each a pair of gigantic ribbed Corinthian pilasters which support an entablature running round the interior.
The four curved corners are identically treated. Each has a pair of pilasters flanking a doorway with a segmental pediment. Over this in turn is a stucco relief panel with the crossed arms of the Franciscans, then a round-headed balustraded niche which looks like a cantoria for a solo musician.
The decorative scheme is by Giuseppe Valadier, executed from 1828 to 1829. It is restrained, in creamy white with gilded details such as the pilaster capitals and with light and dark grey touches.
The ceiling is barrel-vaulted, with lunette windows over the chapel arches, and has a central fresco panel depicting The Apotheosis of St Francis by Luigi Garzi (not one of his best works).
The pretty little organ is in a gallery over the entrance, and was very highly regarded when it was originally installed in 1858 by Adeodato Ubaldo Rossi of Bologna.
De Alvariis has a good series of photos of the memorial floor slabs in his gallery (see "External links").
The triumphal arch has a high, dished archivolt fitting into the nave vault, and springing from the interior entablature over the far rounded corners of the nave. It is embellished with vine scrolls. The sanctuary has a cross-vault, in the centre of which is the six-winged putto emblem in a stucco glory.
There is no apse, and the high altar occupies the far wall. It has two and two-half pilasters in the same style as the nave ones, supporting the entablature over which is a triangular pediment. On this sits stucco angels adoring a cross, which are by Pietro Bracci. The altarpiece is by Francesco Trevisani, 1719, and depicts St Francis Receiving the Stigmata. Also depicted is a companion friar, Fra Leone, reading a book and apparently not noticing what is going on.
The sanctuary is flanked by two side chambers. The left hand one contains a wall monument to Ladislas Constantine Vasa, an illegitimate son of King Ladislas IV of Poland and papal chamberlain before he died in 1698. It is a polychrome marble work by Lorenzo Ottoni (Il Lorenzone), and is an attractive piece in pink, white, green, black and yellow marbles. Fortunately, when the church was rebuilt it was thought worth keeping.
A processional standard kept next to it was made by Ignatius Hugford in 1750, and depicts St Francis Receiving the Stigmata on the front and The Madonna and Child on the back (this object might have been moved).
The side chapels are described anti-clockwise, starting from the right side of the entrance.
Chapel of the RedemptionEdit
The chapels are structurally identical, each with a short barrel vault and with communicating portals to the neighbouring chapels. The latter allow priests and servers to access chapels for private Masses without disturbing liturgies in the main body of the church.
The first chapel on the right is dedicated to the Passion of Christ, and is sumptuously revetted in red Sicilian jasper. The altar has a pair of Corinthian columns in contrasting light green brecciated marble (imitating verde antico), and this supports a bowed segmental pediment with a recessed central section containing winged putto's heads. The frieze, column pedestal panels and altar table backing are in the same light green stone.
The altarpiece is a little ivory crucifix by Alessandro Algardi, which is on an alabaster background and is being venerated by a pair of putti on curlicued strap brackets. These flank an elliptical tondo containing a depiction of Our Lady of Sorrows by Francesco Mancini. The epigraph reads Lacrymae eius in maxillis eius -"her tears are on her cheeks".
The actual altar is a glass-fronted red stone box containing a statue of Christ dead in the tomb.
The right hand side wall has The Flagellation by Marco Benefial, and the left side has The Crowning with Thorns by Domenico Maria Muratori. The ceiling has a fresco of The Triumph of the Cross by Giovanni Odazzi, influenced here by Pozzo.
Chapel of St Michael the ArchangelEdit
The second chapel on the right is dedicated to St Michael the Archangel, and was completely re-fitted by Andrea Busiri Vici in 1869 in an attractive polychrome neo-Classical style.
The altarpiece is a bad copy of the famous work by Guido Reni at Santa Maria della Concezione dei Cappuccini, and is thought to be by Silverio Capparoni. It is flanked by a pair of pale orange marble Corinthian pilasters with gilded capitals, with another pair folded into the corners. There is no proper aedicule. The inner pilasters are flanked by a pair of round-headed niches containing little statues; St Joseph to the left, and St Felicity to the right.
Chapel of St Joseph CalasanzEdit
The third chapel on the right is dedicated to St Joseph Calasanz. There is no aedicule, and the back wall is mostly occupied by the large round-headed altarpiece showing the saint having a vision of Our Lady. This is by Marco Capriozzi (1711-78).
The three fresco panels in the vault show the Dove of the Holy Spirit in glory flanked by figures holding the Cross and Eucharist, and are 19th century.
Chapel of St Anthony of PaduaEdit
The third chapel on the left is dedicated to St Anthony of Padua, and was also re-fitted by Busiri Vici. There is a pair of pink marble pilasters supporting a tympanum in lilac, a bad colour clash, but the coffered vault is attractive with a central blue cross containing the Dove of the Holy Spirit.
The altarpiece showing the saint having a vision of the Christ-Child is by Francesco Trevisani.
Chapel of the Immaculate ConceptionEdit
The second chapel on the left is dedicated to the Immaculate Conception of Our Lady. In 1884 it was completely refitted for Pope Leo XIII and the members of his family, the Pecci. The architect was Federico Mannucci, the decorative work was by Emilio Cantoni, the gilding by Germano Anfossi and the new altar in the Baroque style was by the Medici brothers.
The aedicule is a straightforward piece having a pair of Corinthian columns in grey marble, supporting a triangular pediment with a recessed central section and a blank tympanum. The altarpiece showing The Immaculate Conception is by Domenico Torti (1830-90), a Roman artist. The Pecci coat of arms is on the pedestals of the columns.
Torti also executed The Birth of Our Lady and The Presentation of Our Lady on the side walls. The lunette behind the aedicule pediment has angels in monochrome. The central fresco panel in the vault has the Dove of the Holy Spirit, and the monochrome side panels show The Expulsion of Adam and Eve from Paradise and The Nativity.
The pope's mother has a memorial slab in the floor outside the chapel.
Chapel of the Forty MartyrsEdit
The first chapel on the left is dedicated to the Forty Martyrs of Sebaste, to whom the older church was dedicated. They are depicted in the altarpiece by Giacinto Brandi, and the skeleton of one of them called St Justus is in a niche.
Here is a good neo-Classical memorial to Michele and Domenico Lavaggi, 1837. It has two cameo portrait medallions, and a bas-relief of Our Lady with angels. The sculptor was Vincenzo Luccardi.
In the ceiling of the sacristy is a fresco of The Pardon of Assisi by Girolamo Pesci (1684-1759). It refers to a plenary indulgence granted by Pope Honorius III to those who visit the Chapel of the Porziuncola on 2 August.
At the altar is a reliquary of crystal and silver, in which a drop of blood from the wounds of St Francis is encapsulated. It was donated to the archconfraternity by Cardinal Francesco Barberini in 1633.
In the upper storey is the private oratory of the archconfraternity. Most confraternity churches have one of these somewhere, sometimes as a separate building.
The ceiling is decorated with a painting of St Francis in Ecstasy by Filippo Lauri. The altarpiece by Giacinto Brandi depicts St Francis Receives the Stigmata.
The crypt contains accumulated bones of those buried in the church, and these have been arranged in patterns resembling the much more famous ossuary at Santa Maria della Concezione dei Cappuccini.
According to the Diocese (May 2019), the church is open:
Weekdays 10:00 to 13:00 (not Mondays ore Saturdays), 16:30 to 19:30;
Saturdays and eves of Solemnities 17:00 to 20:00 (only);
Sundays and Solemnities 10:30 to 13:00, 17:00 to 20:00.
Mass is celebrated (according to the Diocese, May 2019):
Weekdays 19:00 (the morning Mass has been discontinued);
Saturdays and eves of Solemnities 19:15 (after Exposition from 18:00);
Sundays and Solemnities 11:30, 19:00.
The feast of St Francis is celebrated on 4 October.
The feast of the Exaltation of the Cross is celebrated on 14 September, especially important here because the saint received the stigmata in the context of its celebration.
The Feast of the Stigmata of St Francis (the church's patronal feast, and only otherwise celebrated by the Franciscans) is 17 September.

You are my special "Something",
That one and only love that once in a lifetime brings.
I never would have imagined or ever even thought,
That for my love you had already fought.
You take the time to see what no one else takes the time to see,
That's the true and geniune one and only ME.
You know my thoughts before I can even reply,
You're my soulmate this is why,
I've longed to be loved by you for such a long time,
I had given up on the thought that you could ever be mine.
But now you've made my life special in every way,
I look forward to each and every day.
I long to be held tight in your arms,
To be mesmarized by your charm.
To look deep into your eyes,
And see true love that will abide.
To softly kiss your sweet lips and feel
Your gentle touch,
Oh Gawd, this is what I long for so much.
To feel your body against mine,
"Whew " babe, this gonna be more than fine.
You are the one I've been searching for,
Now that your mine my search is no more.
You are the one that I want to love from now on,
And this love I have for you will always live on..
You are the one that I adore,
And with each day I will love you more.
You are my breath of fresh air,
And I promise you I'll always be there.
You are the one with whom I want to spend the rest of my life,
And answer your question babe, "YES" I'd love to be your wife.
This to you is all I can say,
Except to love and cherish you in every way.
To show you love like you've never known,
This to you babe, is what you'll be shown.
I love you with all my heart,
And in expressing this I only hope I've done my part.
This I mean sweetheart and I love you.. RED

Vicksburg mayor switching to independent
Vicksburg Mayor George Flaggs Jr., a longtime former state lawmaker and potential candidate for higher office, says he is switching from Democrat to independent later this month.
Flaggs said he has often stayed above the fray of partisan politics and believes the switch will allow him to better serve Vicksburg and, "in order that I may build better relationships to prosperity for the people of Vicksburg and Mississippi."
More: Can Flaggs be elected as a Republican to a statewide office?
Flaggs said he will file the paperwork to become an independent at "high noon" on March 20. As a state representative, Flaggs was known to work across the aisle with Republicans.
Flaggs has hinted at a run for statewide or federal office in the past.
On Monday he said he would likely announce any future political plans on May 7, also at "high noon."
Flaggs has recently met several times with Republican President Donald Trump in Mississippi and at the White House and complimented the president.
More: Vicksburg mayor: Workers who handle money should take polygraph
Last month, when Trump announced his infrastructure plan, Flaggs sat between Trump and Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao. Flaggs said he's directly presented the Trump administration with $195 million in projects for Vicksburg.

Added an interesting feature to my Twitter account (@tweetdonate) for this service that was inspired by a conversation with a friend of mine and fellow programmer John Piasetzki.
It's a background that changes to show statistics about the service: http://twitter.com/tweetdonate
The background is updated by cron in fifteen minute increments by writing text over top of a preprepared PNG that has the logo and tag line. The image is then saved and uploaded to Twitter using the API. It's actually pretty easy to make!

Qatar Urges Human Rights Council to Take Active Measures to Stop Blockading Countries' Violations
The State of Qatar called Thursday on the United Nations Human Rights Council to take active and direct measures to deal with the violations made by the blockading countries against Qatari citizens.
This came during the speech of Deputy Permanent Representative of the State of Qatar to the UN in Geneva Abdullah Al Nuaimi, which took place at an interactive dialogue with the Special Rapporteur concerned with the negative repercussions of coercive measures on human rights, as part of the 39th session of the Human Rights Council.
Al Nuaimi cited the report by technical mission of the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), which described the measures taken by the blockading countries as unilateral and coercive. Al Nuaimi expressed the State of Qatar's regret that the special rapporteur concerned with the subject failed to take any tangible measures, despite the availability of information regarding those violations and his demands of dealing with them.
The Deputy Permanent Representative of the State of Qatar to the UN in Geneva also cited the verdict by the International Justice Court requiring the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to implement provisional measures that limit the impact of some of the violations committed against Qatari citizens. Those measures included allowing Qatari students back into UAE universities they are enrolled in, reuniting families separated by the blockade, and allowing Qatari citizens to seek the UAE judicial system to look into their cases.
Al Nuaimi stressed on the importance of the verdict, but maintained that the Human Rights Council must work on ending those violations committed by the other blockading countries, as those violations remain in place and their urgent nature requires taking direct and active measures.
The Deputy Permanent Representative of the State of Qatar to the UN in Geneva said that the credibility of the UN Human Rights Council depends on its integrity and independence of its mechanisms in ending human rights violations, and holding those responsible for it accountable.
Al Nuaimi stressed that the council can never be active if its mechanisms were not, especially the special procedures.

Digital Accelerometer ADXL345 3 Axis Range: +/- 16g
Accelerometers are used to sense both static (e.g. gravity) and dynamic (e.g. sudden starts/stops) acceleration. One of the more widely used applications for accelerometers is tilt-sensing. An accelerometer can tell you how it's oriented with respect to the Earth's surface. For example, smartphones have an accelerometer, which lets them know whether it's being held in portrait or landscape mode. An accelerometer can also be used to sense motion. For instance, an accelerometer in Nintendo's WiiMote can be used to sense emulated forehands and backhands of a tennis racket, or rolls of a bowling ball. Finally, an accelerometer can also be used to sense if a device is in a state of free fall. This feature is implemented in several hard drives: if a drop is sensed, the hard drive is quickly switched off to protect against data loss. The ADXL345 is a low-power, 3-axis MEMS accelerometer modules with both I2C and SPI interfaces. This module features on-board 3.3v voltage regulation and makes it simple to interface with microcontrollers such as the Arduino, Raspberry Pi and other general purpose micro controllers. The ADXL345 is a small, thin, low power, 3-axis MEMS accelerometer with high resolution (13-bit) measurement at up to +-16 g. Digital output data is formatted as 16-bit twos complement and is accessible through either a SPI (3- or 4-wire) or I2C digital interface. Its high resolution (4 mg/LSB) enables measurement of inclination changes less than 1.0 degrees. Several special sensing functions are provided. Activity and inactivity sensing detect the presence or lack of motion and if the acceleration on any axis exceeds a user-set level. Tap sensing detects single and double taps. Free-fall sensing detects if the device is falling. These functions can be mapped to one of two interrupt output pins. An integrated, patent pending 32-level first in, first out (FIFO) buffer can be used to store data to minimize host processor intervention. Low power modes enable intelligent motion-based power management with threshold sensing and active acceleration measurement at extremely low power dissipation. Features
- On-board ADXL345 IC, it's a low cost based accelerometer sensor;
- Supports 5V/3.3V voltage input, onboard RT9161 voltage regulator which offers better performance than 1117, ideal for high noise power supply environment;
- Pins are arrange in 0.1" spacing, which means it plugs directly onto a breadboard for easy prototyping and testing
- Support high resolution readings in all 3 axis
- High output update frequency
- Special Sensing Functions - Motion Sensing, Single and Double Tap Sensing, Free Fall Detection, etc
- PCB board is Gold-plated, Boad size: 2.8 (cm) x 1.4 (cm)

Latest Reviews of Rehab Centers in Antoine, AR and Nearby
Close to family. Organization is weak. My so left after 2 weeks....
30, 60, 90-Day Inpatient Vs. Outpatient Rehabilitation in Antoine, Arkansas
Becoming sober from MDMA, Opiates, alcohol or other addictive substances you or your loved one is addicted to takes an specifically-tailored treatment strategy. Two options of substance treatment facilities in Antoine can help you succeed: either In-patient or Outpatient Rehab. Inpatient therapy offers lasting gains with an extended stay in a high-quality rehab center. Outpatient treatment options may be more suitable, but lack the stability and assests of thirty-day programs to get free from drugs. Ultimately, you make the choice, and we are here to help you make the right choice.
Isolating yourself from the location of the drug or alcohol problem can help eradicate distractions and tempting things that prevent long-term sobriety. When viewing rehabilitation as a healing retreat, addicts will find luxury executive clinics in cities outside of Antoine, Arkansas. Offering high-end hotel-like amenities, the best-quality centers help achieve a state of physical, mental and emotional healing. However, those looking for outpatient healing may find a program near your residence is an easier decision to make.
Dual diagnosis refers to people who are simultaneously wrestling with both drug or alcohol abuse issues and behavioral or mental issues. For instance, an addiction to meth, narcotics or Ambien combined with anger management issues or personality disorders. For these cases, a residential treatment center becomes even more desirable, incorporating quality inpatient therapy with support group aid, such as one might experience in Narcotics Anonymous. Luxury drug rehabs in Antoine, Arkansas will provide excellent rehab services with upscale amenities for anyone requiring the very best drug rehab, just as Antoine alcohol rehab centers will help those battling alcohol to get sober.
Note About Insurance for Addiction Treatment: LifeSynch, HMO Insurance and Group and Pensions Administrators frequently cover at least some of your inpatient treatment, and you can find out more about your own provider's policy or benefit status here.

I am trying to use the MobileData sample (https://hub.jazz.net/project/mobilecloud/bluelist-mobiledata) for a demo, against a bluemix instance running a MobileData service and a push service.
I have updated the bluelist.properties file with my AppID. Things were running fine last week and I didn't change anything on the server or client end.

I have re-created another MBaaS from the Mobile BoilerPlate, refreshed the SDK files... but it did not help.
Answer by Christian_Chateauvieux (1) | Jun 19, 2014 at 08:56 AM
Turns out I was getting this error message because I didn't have a MAS service in my app backend. It was in the doc though ( https://www.ng.bluemix.net/docs/#services/mobiledata/index.html#gettingstarted) but I guess I overlooked it and removed the MAS service which I believed was not required.
Adding a MAS service in the app backend fixed my issue.

Boost Indoor Air Quality With a Room-by-Room Approach
Poor indoor air quality can aggravate allergies, asthma and other medical conditions. Even healthy people can suffer from nasal congestion, dry eyes, and other symptoms caused by airborne allergens. Improving indoor air quality throughout your home starts by taking action room by room.
In the Bedroom
Improving the air inside your bedroom is very important. The linens on your bed can trap allergens. You should wash your bedding once a week in hot water to kill dust mites and remove allergens.
Pet dander, a common allergy trigger, can also accumulate in your bedding. Keeping pets outside the bedroom will minimize the presence of dander.
In the Kitchen
Wipe down the counters after cooking, and try not to leave dishes with food or food remnants in the sink or dishwasher. Use a trash can with a lid that securely latches. These measures will help to prevent stale food odors from spreading throughout your home. In addition, they will help to keep pests away since pests such as gnats and cockroaches are attracted to food debris and trash. Using the exhaust fan over the stove will help to remove food odors and the excess moisture associated with cooking.
In the Bathroom
Moist, humid conditions are ideal for Mold growth. Bathrooms are especially prone to mold growth due to the high levels of moisture that linger after taking a bath or shower. Use the exhaust fan to remove moisture lingering in the air.
In the Basement
Basements are another prime location for water leaks, pests and mold growth. Fixing leaks will help to keep problems to a minimum. If there is lingering moisture in the air, use a dehumidifier to dry out the space. Also, make sure the clothes dryer is properly vented to the outside.
Improving indoor air quality throughout your home will help to keep you and your family healthy year-round. Check out WA Air Conditioning's indoor air quality solutions or call 936-594-5603 for more information.Tags: allergens, dehumidifier, humidity, IAQ, indoor air quality, leaks, mold
