The Iranian regime is resorting to jamming satellite broadcasts in a vain attempt to stop people seeing a new film telling the story of Neda Agha-Soltan, According to the Guardian viewers in Tehran complained of jamming and power cuts last week when the Voice of America Persian TV network broadcast the documentary For Neda, featuring the first film interviews with the family of the 27-year-old.
Unsurprisingly, given the groundswell of feeling in the country the film has rapidly gone viral in Iran in the run-up to next Saturday's anniversary of the disputed elections that triggered the protests. It is available on YouTube so can be seen by anyone with access to the internet.
The film was directed by Antony Thomas and co-produced by Saeed Kamali Dehghan, a former Guardian correspondent in Iran. Kamali Dehghan risked arrest to interview Neda's parents and siblings and obtain unseen footage of her life.
Witnesses have said that she was shot in the heart by a sniper with the Basij militia force, who has been named as Abbas Kargar-Javid.
Iran's intelligence ministry is reportedly due to release its own documentary to remove "ambiguities" surrounding her death and provide "new evidence" about what it calls the west's version of events. Neda's family were under pressure to cooperate with the official documentary but refused. Two of her friends were forced to participate.
The Iranian regime will probably suggest again that Neda was an agent of the US and Britain who staged her own death and poured blood on her face. BBC Tehran correspondent Jon Leyne was also blamed for her killing before being expelled.
Meanwhile Ahmadinejad today warned the opposition of tough measures, ahead of protests next week. "Those who want to tarnish the image of the country and its system will be removed from the [political] scene," he said in a speech marking the 21st anniversary of the death of Ayatollah Khomeini, architect of the 1979 Islamic revolution, which toppled the shah.
"The election last year was the most democratic in the world as nowhere else would 40 million people turn up for elections," he claimed. Ahmadinejad pledged: "Whoever stands against the Islamic system will not survive." Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Khomeini's successor as supreme leader, boasted that Iran, facing new UN sanctions over its nuclear programme, was in a position to "see off any conspiracies".
Democratic? Don't make me laugh! It was as rigged as HMS Victory! A few Stalinist scumbags George Galloway, Seumas Milne et al may swallow that bullshit but most people don't. Protests have been muted for several months but there is still a huge reservoir of anger among the people of Iran. Ahmadinejad is a dead man walking, metaphorically speaking. He will be flushed into the sewers of history, count on it.
The title of this blog comes from a Gaelic expression -"putting on the poor mouth"-which means to exaggerate the direness of one's situation in order to gain time or favour from creditors.

Hi There Everyday Foodies!
We have brought back the featured blogger to everydayfoodies.com ! We are so excited to bring you Klara Donovan of herhappyheart.com which is super cool because there is a team of bloggers but this interview focuses on Klara, all the way from Perth, in Western Australia!
Take a look below and learn a little more about Klara and herhappyheart.com
What got you started blogging about food?
I have loved cooking for years, and I am a mad follower of many food blogs! A big part of it was simply looking at the food blogs that I loved, and saying "I want to do what they do!" It seemed like the perfect way to challenge myself creatively in the kitchen and share my cooking successes with the world.
How do you develop your recipes? Is it something that you naturally do or do you take long loved recipes and adapt them to your new flavor profile goals?
I take all kinds of approaches! Sometimes I tweak our tried-and-true family recipes, sometimes I eat something at a café that I want to recreate, sometimes I fixate on an ingredient and brainstorm interesting ways to use it. Sometimes it's just a random thought trail! For example, when I created my chicken nacho pie recipe, it was because I had nothing planned for dinner one night, and I looked in my fridge and saw a bunch of ingredients that could be used in a Mexican dish. I had recently pinned a classic pot pie recipe, so pie was in my head! And from there my thought process went: "I could make a Mexican pot pie… with a layer of cheese… no, a nacho cheese sauce… mmm nachos… Oh! I could put corn chips in it and make it taste like nachos… and I could put cheese in the crust… Ooo! And jalapeno!"
What is your favorite recipe on your site?
I don't think I will ever love a recipe more than my raspberry chocolate brownies with balsamic mascarpone! That recipe is an example of a family favourite that I've baked about a thousand times, and have tweaked over the years. It never fails to delight my friends and family!
LINK TO RECIPE: http://www.herhappyheart.com/raspberry-chocolate-pocket-brownies-with-balsamic-mascarpone/
What advice would you have for new food bloggers?
I never knew how much work food blogging, and blogging in general, truly is! Developing a recipe and writing a post is probably only about 30% of the work, when you factor in styling, photography, photo editing and promotion – but these things are all completely worthwhile if you truly want your recipes seen by others.
Are you working on any new projects that you would like to share?
I have a running list in my phone entitled "Recipes to Create" so I always have something on the go. At the moment I am really focusing on lifting my food styling and photography game so that when I post a recipe, it looks as good as possible. I consider myself a creative person but these particular things don't come naturally to me at all! It's a fun learning experience though.
We hope you enjoyed this featured blogger and let us know if you, or someone you know would like to be our next featured blogger on everydayfoodies.com , email us at email@example.com

'The First Muslim,' by Lesley Hazleton
Who was the first Christian? Many Christians would probably answer: "Jesus." But the Gospels make it clear that Jesus lived and died as a Jew. A better guess might be the Apostle Paul, whose letters reveal a community beginning to distinguish itself from its parent faith. But naming him would be just that: a guess.
If the narratives of Islamic origins are accurate, there is no doubt who was the first Muslim. Around the year 610, Muhammad began to hear a voice. In response to its revelations, Muhammad preached to his pagan Arab neighbors a message of submission to the God also worshiped by Jews and Christians. It took two decades and a long political struggle, but eventually Muhammad persuaded the Arabs to adopt his new faith.
Lesley Hazleton has drawn on those narratives, the most important of which are available in English translations, to compose a rich biography of this first Muslim. There are other excellent biographies of Muhammad, including scholarly accounts by Montgomery Watt, Maxime Rodinson and others. Hazleton's is aimed at a broader audience.
The figure of Muhammad lies behind the misunderstanding and conflict between the Muslim world and the Christian West. Christians have compared Muhammad to Christ, and found the former lacking. Hazleton's account demonstrates just how unhelpful such an approach is. For all that Muhammad apparently saw himself as a prophet in direct line of spiritual descent from Jesus, the two played radically different roles.
Above all, Muhammad was a political leader as much as a spiritual one, more Moses than Jesus, and Hazleton frames his prophetic career as a struggle to overcome his enemies and to unite the inhabitants of the Arabian Peninsula for the first time in a single state. For the average Westerner, this is the critical but largely unknown context without which it is impossible to understand the Muslim prophet or the doctrines he preached.
So, for example, jihad is not proof that Islam is inherently violent. Rather, it is a doctrine that evolved to address the political circumstances that Muhammad (and his successors) faced. Hazleton provides a nuanced account of those circumstances, among them a raid carried out by some of Muhammad's followers against their enemies shortly after Muhammad fled his home in Mecca and established a Muslim polity in the nearby community of Medina.
The raid was a minor affair, but, occurring as it did during a sacred month when violence was taboo, it provided the occasion for a revelation that would shape later Muslim thinking about warfare: "Say: 'Fighting in that month is a great offense, but still greater offenses in God's eyes are to bar others from God's path. ... Persecution is worse than killing.' "
Emphasizing context allows the author to explain without apologizing for those aspects of the prophet's life that are most likely to jar Western sensibilities. One of the most troubling episodes was Muhammad's execution of the male members of a Jewish tribe in Medina that had allegedly conspired with his Meccan enemies. As Hazleton notes, the episode is invoked today by some Muslims to demonstrate Jewish perfidy, and by critics of Islam to accuse it of anti-Semitism.
Both allegations miss the point. The incident was shocking enough that many of Muhammad's contemporaries, even among his supporters, were disturbed by it. But the move was calculated to demonstrate his power and bring about the more rapid submission of his other enemies, particularly those in Mecca, and in that he largely succeeded.
For many, one of the most puzzling aspects of Islam is its very heart: the Quran. The Muslim scripture is not a narrative account of Muhammad's life or, indeed, of anything else. It is, rather, an arbitrarily arranged collection of verses revealed to Muhammad over 20 years. Each verse addressed particular circumstances faced by the prophet or his followers, but those circumstances are not spelled out in the text. Unless one knows the contexts of the revelations, reading the Quran can therefore be baffling. Hazleton conveniently situates its scattered verses in the circumstances to which they were addressed. As a result, her book will function for many readers as a comprehensible introduction to the Muslim scripture.
With her broad audience in mind, Hazleton wants not only to recount what happened in Muhammad's life but also how he felt about it. That's consistent with the goal of most modern biographers, who typically are interested not just in what their subjects did, but why, and what they thought and felt.
Unfortunately, the relative absence of direct evidence of people's interior lives in premodern sources - the occasional St. Augustine notwithstanding - makes that project difficult. For all the detail about Muhammad's life that the surviving Muslim narratives provide, little of it allows much direct insight into Muhammad's state of mind.
To overcome that difficulty, Hazleton allows herself a considerable, and sometimes unsettling, degree of imaginative license. But if in doing so she strays further from the sources than scholarly precision might prefer, most readers will still appreciate and benefit from the portrait of the Muslim prophet provided in this book. Its goal is not to urge its readers to love, or to hate, the man, simply to understand the forces that produced him. Those who read it will come away well prepared to understand the prophet whose message, 14 centuries later, is the creed of more than a billion and a half people.

People are well aware of the benefits of toning the physical body. But for some reasons, biased or unbiased, the prospects of working out at the mental gym to sharpen our minds is still greeted with great skepticism. An increasing number of research studies are now working to find definite evidence in this respect, and many have been instrumental in dispelling such doubts existing in the minds of people.
… "Meditators have stable brains and stable thoughts." The study published in the Journal of Neuroscience suggestibly concludes that "the brain functions of people regularly practicing meditation are altered, which leads to the improvement of their mental focus and attention span."
… The study discovered that meditation not only enables one to change patterns in the brain, but also leads to improved cognitive performance, conferring an advantage in focusing a task mentally. The meditator group was compared to a control group who never meditated, but was of the same age and similar educational background to eliminate any bias in the study.
… Meditators did the task better than non meditators by spotting more target sequences and with fewer false alarms. Interestingly, results of the study suggested that the benefits of meditation extended far beyond the practice.
…It has been demonstrated that meditation leads to an increase in a number of brain signaling connections, along with expansion of myelin, the protective fatty insulation surrounding nerve fibres. Such effect has been observed in the anterior cingulated cortex region of the brain, which is believed to help regulate behavior, and improve mental focus by increased nerve activity.

Claiming Occupational Exposure in Wisconsin Workers' Compensation System
Repetitive stress and occupational exposure fall under the broader category of occupational disease in the workers' comp system. If you have suffered permanent damage due to prolonged exposure to a work-related activity, you could receive compensation for your injuries.
At Domer Law, our attorneys have been recognized as preeminent advocates in the area of workers' compensation. If continuous exposure to the environment at your place of employment caused your injury, do not delay. Contact a Milwaukee repetitive lifting injury lawyer from Domer Law online today or call 888-353-8384.
"In [repetitive lifting and occupational disease] cases, injured workers regularly claim that the ongoing occupational exposure experienced over the course of employment caused the disability, thus triggering the date of injury as the last day of employment. For an occupational back injury, the work exposure need not be the sole cause but only a material, contributory causative factor in the onset or progression of the back disease." —Tom Domer for Wisconsin Workers' Compensation Experts
Injuries Due to Occupational Exposure and Repetitive Stress
Diseases or repetitive stress injuries are "occupational" when they are acquired over a period of time, not as the result of one specific traumatic event. A "work-related condition" is anything at your job that makes it different from not being at your job, such as heavy lifting, repetitively twisting or bending, or exposure to harmful chemicals. Under Wisconsin law, there is no minimum period of exposure or time at work before a condition can be an occupational disease. The law only requires that the exposure or job duties be a material contributory causative factor in the onset or progression of the condition. As little as a 5% contribution can be sufficient, so workers are well-advised to call an attorney if they feel their job duties contributed to a medical condition.
If you suspect that you have a condition that occurred because of the long-term conditions of your employment, the experienced attorneys at Domer Law are there to help. Some examples of repetitive stress injuries include:
- Chronic pain due to repetitive lifting
- Back or neck surgery as the result of heavy work duties
- Herniated disk injuries
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Occupational asthma
- Chemical exposure or permanent sensitization
- Degenerative disk disease
Suffering From Repetitive Stress Injuries? Contact Domer Law
Let our attorneys put their expertise in the field of Wisconsin repetitive lifting injury cases to work for you. Contact our experienced lawyers today for a free consultation. Call 888-353-8384 to schedule an appointment.
At Domer Law, we will not receive a dime until we successfully get your claim paid.

It took me a little while today to figure out how to do a text only install of a CentOS guest on KVM. Previously I had started the install using virt-install and then connected to the VNC console over SSH. This is a bit of a hassle though when all you want is a quick, text based install.
So here's how.
Firstly all of my VMs live on LVM so create a virtual disk to hold the VM. I'm creating a 20G 'partition' in a volume group called kvm-storage. The logical volume is called host.demo.com.
Now download the CentOS install ISO. Either CD1 or the netinstall ISO should be fine –
Now we mount the ISO –
Now we run the virt-install command. I suggest putting this command in a file and running it from there to make editing easier!
Here are the parts of the command above that allow for a text based install –
–nographics – tells KVM not to allocate a graphics console to the VM
-v – means we're doing full virtualization
-l – sets the boot location to be the ISO we mounted earlier
–disk – sets the install destination disk to be the disk we created earlier
-x "console=ttyS0" – sets a kernel boot parameter telling CentOS to use ttyS0 as the console
Once this is done you should see the text based installation screens. This worked pretty well in putty, you are able to tell what menu options you are selecting. You won't be able to use the mounted ISO for the actual installation media so I did a HTTP install, selecting one of the CentOS mirrors to do the install from (like – http://mirrors.manchester.icecolo.com/centos/5.5/os/x86_64/)
Once the install is complete and the VM rebooted you can access the console again by running –
You don't have to mount the iso you can just -l to the iso. Do you have a way to do an install from the local iso media rather than from http? I can't get this to work.
No, I couldn't either. I just use virt-manager if I need to do a full ISO install.
[…] method specified here failed as […]
A couple thoughts.
1) a quick workaround to installing from local iso media is just to export the loopback-mounted filesystem via NFS or http from the host to the guest.
2) you don't mention, so I will: to escape from the console you connected to with virsh, issue control-] (same as the telnet escape character for you old timers).
Hi Danno,
Both good tips. Many thanks for the feedback. Matt
just I dont understand why i cant use iso-file with -c key like
-c /home/ipeacocks/CentOS-6.4-x86_64-bin-DVD1.iso
and should mount iso . Because option -x "console=ttyS0" will not work with iso-image.
Anyway thank you ! 🙂

The decision by South Africa's ruling ANC party to push ahead with legislation allowing land expropriation without fair compensation will probably exacerbate the country's economic woes and increase volatility in asset prices.
07 September 2018
South Africa's recent slide into recession comes at a tumultuous period for emerging markets (EM) and the business-unfriendly land reform initiative will only add to the overall souring of EM sentiment, potentially triggering a further sell-off in the country's assets.
Popular move
A large part of the population perceives the country's current distribution of land as among the root causes for the country's slow economic development and socio-political challenges. While there is academic evidence against such views, the upcoming general elections will probably force the ANC to meet popular demands.
Historical land injustices are increasingly blamed for South Africa's current economic and socio-political challenges. While apartheid-era 'white rule' officially ended in 1994, the bulk of farm and agricultural land remains in ownership by the country's small while minority. Moreover, government promises of a gradual redistribution of some historically dispossessed agricultural land have largely not been met.
In the context of economic growth markedly undershooting EM peers', high and still growing unemployment, and wealth inequalities that are among the worst in the world, large parts of South Africa's population are increasingly perceiving a more radical reallocation of land without fair compensation as a route to overcome some of the country's structural challenges.

Red herring
Interestingly, there is strong academic evidence that the current allocation of land is not the main impediment for the country's economic underperformance. Both domestic and international economic surveys highlight that South Africa's underwhelming economic development is driven by other issues, including inefficient government bureaucracy, restrictive labour markets, poor educational outcomes, policy uncertainty, and corruption.
These factors are also among the key drivers for South Africa's deteriorating rank on the World Bank's Ease of Doing Business index, where the country has slipped dozens of places relative to African peers in recent years.

While the bulk of South Africa's top political leadership understands that radical land reform may be a red herring, upcoming general elections will probably force the government to still engage with the issue to some extent.
South Africa's president himself appears to understand that radical land expropriation may further damage the country's already poor and deteriorating business environment. However, some populist politicians both within and outside the ANC party administration are vocally demanding for radical land reform to remain on the government's core agenda.
And given that the topic is becoming increasingly popular with the electorate and general elections are due in 2019, the government may well be forced to advance some legislative proposals on the matter. However, more radical forms of expropriation without compensation will probably remain off the agenda.
Increased volatility
Nonetheless, the land reform story could hardly come at a more unfavourable time, given the broad-based weakness in emerging markets at present. South Africa does not just face anaemic growth, but also significant fiscal and current account deficits. A further withdrawal of support by either portfolio or real-sector investors would compound the country's economic challenges.
Net foreign direct investment flows are already negative and both the South African rand and government bond prices have fallen in response to land reform headlines in recent weeks. Further volatility seems likely as the legislative initiative progresses, especially in the context of a more generic weakening of investor appetite for EM risk assets as US interest rates rise and trade tensions grow.
Financial markets are becoming increasingly selective on where to allocate funds, and South Africa's business-unfriendly land reform initiative could certainly remove the country's assets from some investors' radars.

President Donald Trump, whose endorsement of Ron DeSantis was pivotal in Florida's Republican primary for governor, signaled this morning that he plans to get involved in the general election as well.
On Twitter, Trump crowed about DeSantis' huge win — and took a shot at the Democratic nominee, Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum.
Listen to the talk of a potential Gillum "surge" on last week's Inside Florida Politics podcast:
Here's what Trump tweeted this morning about the DeSantis-Gillum race:
"Not only did Congressman Ron DeSantis easily win the Republican Primary, but his opponent in November is his biggest dream….a failed Socialist Mayor named Andrew Gillum who has allowed crime & many other problems to flourish in his city. This is not what Florida wants or needs!" Trump tweeted.
Gillum stunned pollsters and much of the punditocracy by defeating four rivals to win the Democratic primary with 34 percent of the vote. An endorsement from Democratic socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders was a key factor for Gillum.
Tallahassee last year was named the most dangerous city in Florida by the blog 24/7 Wall St. based on federal Uniform Crime Rate reports from 2015 that showed 767.1 violent crimes per 100,000 people, compared to a statewide rate of 461.9 per 100,000.

Rustic watercolor wedding inspiration
We love when an event comes off as beautifully simple, and yet is filled to the brim with small, stunning details. For today's watercolor wedding editorial, event designer Mona of Birds & Honey portrayed a couple who wanted an organic wedding that celebrated their romance without all the bells and whistles. Simple as that.
Thanks to Maria Lamb for sharing these photos with us today!
Isn't this Claire Pettibone gown divine?
The team combined paired mismatched chairs + glassware with a custom wood table for an organic feel. Anna Mara Flowers then whipped up the prettiest tablescape to continue the earthy vibes.
Their color palette: whites, ivories, subtle hints of blue and burgundy with an abundance of greenery
Mona says, For the overall feel of this editorial my motto was "embrace simplicity". Time and time again, the most transparent vision is often times the most simple.
Just when you thought this scene couldn't get any more romantic. In love with that woodland Northwest backdrop…

Want to launch unselfish, mature young adults into the world someday? Here's some helpful advice.
Our kids are being raised in a culture that often rewards selfish — even risky — behavior. The more outrageous the stunt, the more likely it will be to get "likes" or "shares." When fame is the ultimate goal, anything goes … and it doesn't seem to matter who gets hurt in the process.
In the middle of a digital landscape with harrowing possibilities, what's a parent to do? If you're like me and want to launch unselfish, mature young adults someday, read on for practical advice from both experts and everyday parents.
Begin by looking in the mirror
The first thing to do if we want to raise unselfish kids in a "selfie" culture is look at ourselves honestly. "If our own hearts are filled with selfishness, it's impossible to help our children cultivate unselfishness," writes author and speaker Jill Garner Rigby in Raising Unselfish Children in a Self-Absorbed World.
She adds, "God knows all too well the selfishness that lies deep within the human heart. He loves us so much that he can't wait for us to allow Him to empty our hearts of self-centeredness and to fill them with other-centeredness."
This is the starting point: we come like a child, asking forgiveness for our wrongs, and we trust God to help us live generous and virtuous lives. We also model the very behavior we seek to teach to our children.
Purposefully teach values and right behavior
When our children misbehave, it's up to us to correct them in loving ways. With a bit of creativity and practice, we can turn those times in which our kids choose selfish behavior into teachable moments.
"I stop my kids in the middle of a selfish action and ask them how they would feel if the same thing was being done to them," says nurse Jessica Sauce Mikulskis, a mother of three. "They get caught up in 'me-me-me' and don't think about the other person. Your brain has to be trained this way. Once they think about it, they realize they were being selfish."
Make serving others a priority
Not only can we interrupt bad behavior, but we can set our kids up for good behavior by planning family service projects and volunteering together on a regular basis. Notes Jon Polk, a teacher and father of one: "Lots of people serve at holidays or a few times a year, but that tends to make service a special task only for certain times. Give it priority and make it a regular part of your life. Get to know the stories of the people you serve, and you'll realize that we all have much more in common than you think."
Amy Lewis, a title examiner and mother of one, advises parents to involve kids in volunteering early in life: "I took my now-teenage son Aaron to help out at a local food pantry early on. Since then, he has volunteered at a wildlife refuge, church — even at my office for special events. That makes me happy! I pray it stays a part of his heart always.
Get outside your family's comfort zone
Don't be afraid to step way outside of your family's routine while thinking about potential service projects. Kristin Welch, author of Raising Grateful Kids in an Entitled World, is a mother of three who often takes her brood overseas. The Welches have learned that traveling (especially to third-world countries) is transformative for their children.
In her blog post, "11 Reasons You Should Take A [Risky] Trip Out Of Your Comfort Zone With Your Kids," Welch writes, "Leaving our comfort zone has taught us so many valuable lessons. And you don't have to leave the country to discover them. Serving refugees or the homeless in the heart of your city, visiting a nursing home, volunteering at a women's shelter, opening your life to people who are different than you are … doing something that risks your comfort will set your family up in the classroom of life."
Finally, a word of encouragement: As parents, we are often hard on ourselves … much harder than we need to be. Let's promise to do the best we can, give ourselves grace when we fail, and remember that kids will ultimately "catch" good things from us — things we may not even remember ourselves doing or saying.
As Sherry Swaim, an educator and mother explains, "My oldest daughter Shelbi recently told me that she learned how to give to others because she remembered her dad and I giving to others at Christmas. As a little girl, she wanted to tell other people, but we told her that it's important to give without letting others know. I don't even remember that moment, but she said it stuck with her because it made her understand selfless giving."

When parents wish to present their child for Baptism they are invited to contact Kim (Secretary) at the Parish Office, (01) 820 5480. Kim will discuss the dates of Baptism, take the initial information and arrange a meeting with the *Parish Baptism Team.
The policy of the parish is to have a number of children baptised together to create a true sense of joining a community of believers. Single baptisms are not encouraged.
*The Parish Baptism Team is a group of volunteers who serve to welcome and prepare families in advance of the day of baptism and attend the liturgy itself. They are a sign that baptism is never just a private family occasion but the parish and the universal Church also share in the rejoicing and responsibilities of having a new disciple.
Current member of our Baptism Team are:
Sr. Ignatius, Mary Duffy, Marie Kavanagh, Kim Geoghegan, Julie May Morris & Sr. Mary Gerald Okoye.
For adults who which to receive baptism, enrolment is required in the RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults) programme. We invite you to make contact with the parish secretary or one of the parish team.
Please note:
Click on the title to see more information.
The baptism of babies depends, not on the faith of the baby, but rather on the faith of the parents. It is presumed therefore that the parents (or at least one of them) are practicing members of the Catholic community and that the child will be brought up in the practice of the faith. In fact, the parents solemnly promise to do this during the baptismal ceremony.
- A copy of the child's birth certificate is required in order to accurately register the baptism.
- A copy of the baptismal cert of at least one parent is required.
Godparents have a two-fold responsibility:
- To assist the parents in discharging their duties as Christian parents
- To be a model of Christian living to the child in question
Hence some people may not be suitable as godparents.
- Not less than 16 years of age
- Be a catholic who has been confirmed and has received the blessed Eucharist, and lives a life of faith.
A baptised person who belongs to a non-catholic community may be admitted but only in company with a catholic godparent and simply as a witness to the baptism.
At least 4 weeks' notice is required unless there are exceptional circumstances, in which case please contact the Parish Office.

Helped me bulk up
This supplement worked really well. I felt more muscle fullness everyday while taking this. And it helped me increase my bench by 30lbs in one month (175-205) and I bulked up about 10lbs. I couldnt stand the taste/smell of these tablets, but its only a pill and its over soon. Also they are slightly costly, but definitely worth it. It gets 4 stars from me.

All's well that begins well
Right about the time I decided I ought to give the yard a little water, we got a downpour. (Complete with small hail.) I'll take the culminating light show as a good omen for the journey ahead. We're off to Santa Fe in the morning (yup, the DM gets to come along on this one), where I am pleased to be doing an inservice for all of the elementary art teachers in the Santa Fe School District. Wow! Very cool. We'll sketch and journal and even make the stab bound books I described here once upon a time. Back on Sunday, see you then!

I call my husband a pilot, because he's so good at making piles.
I know. Corny. But so, so true. While he's nowhere near the level of the hoarders you see on television, he does have a way of wanting to keep things around. He says he's being frugal, and you know - I'm all for frugal, but there is a line.
We bought a vacuum cleaner two weeks ago, and the old vacuum cleaner is still in the house. Not just in the house, but still stored as if it will be used. The first time I questioned this, he told me he was saving it to use in the attic.
I have never heard of vacuuming an empty, crawl space attic, but I don't know everything.
The second time, he said he was planning to use it in the garage.
Our garage, like most garages, has a concrete floor that responds very well to a broom. Using a vacuum cleaner in a garage is also not a concept I'm familiar with. Yes, I've heard of shop vacs. A Hoover seems, somehow, overkill.
I really want him to throw our old vacuum cleaner away, but I have a feeling it might become like our VCR. Not the one rarely used but still hooked up in the family room, I'm talking about the one that resides on our bedroom floor, behind the door. I think it's there in case two of us decide to watch a VHS tape at the same time, which ignores the fact that in seven years, we've collectively watched a VHS tape approximately twice.
I'm not entirely innocent of the hoarding habit, given my jewelry box and it's little drawer of mismatched earrings and loose stones that I swear I'm going to do something with one day, but do you see how my hoard fits into a jewelry box, and his hoards are, well, a vacuum cleaner, a VCR, a coffee shop chair, a large box of research papers from the master's degree he completed more than a decade ago?
His stuff is too big.
My mother used to get rid of things while my father was at work. He rarely noticed. I tried this with a rattan stool that screamed in horror if you even looked like you were going to sit in it. My husband thought the stool would come in handy eventually, and insisted we keep it.
It's been gone for a month. He hasn't noticed.
Anyone need a VCR?

This week we saw things shaken up on a general level. We saw a vote flip in the way of saving Tiffany, we saw a nail biting HoH competition with game-altering implications, and we saw blow outs with all sorts of combination of people. Essentially, we finally saw these Houseguests start to play Big Brother, and I am cautiously optimistic about it.
Before diving headlong into the game play of the week, I want to address the 'team's twist', because after Paulie won HoH and the world slowly realized Frank was safe yet again, the cries of injustice began almost immediately. I am going to put my neck out here and say that I actually LIKE the team twist more now than I did at the beginning, and I think that it is working exactly the way production hoped it would.
People are bellowing that the twist is rigged to keep the veterans safe (Frank in particular) but that just isn't plausible. Only one of the three veterans each week is safe, and the fact that it has been Frank more often than not is sheer dumb luck. Remember when Da'Vonne picked Paul over Paulie on Night One? Had she not made that critical error, SHE would be safe exactly as often as Frank has been. Who has ended up safe in the weeks that have ensued since the teams were drawn is strictly coincidental. If Paulie and Bridgette ended up on anyone else's team the results would be very, very different. These people chose their own teams so the "rigging" cries are, as always, without foundation.
Beyond just the fact that it is essentially impossible to have "rigged" who would be safe each week because these people chose their own teams, the twist has also added an incredibly interesting dynamic to targeting in the house. This week serves as an easy example of my point - Paulie was fully ready to target Frank this week, but his back was against the wall and he couldn't throw the competition to the person he was targeting, so he was forced to win. Ipso facto, Frank is safe. This creates an interesting dilemma where if you win HoH, you could very well be responsible for ensuring the safety of your target. It adds a strategic layer to the game we haven't seen before, and if you think that it isn't exactly what production wanted, you're fooling yourself.
I think its pretty clear production wanted the teams twist to be something the houseguests would try to manipulate in the way they did the Battle of The Block, because it adds another element to the game and another layer of planning that needs to take place to ensure a target.
I think (as most do) the twist will be finished after the Battle Back competition on Friday, because it would just be too complicated to reintegrate players to a team again, but don't be fooled for one second - this twist was a success and production sees it that way too.
Moving away from the twist, some really interesting game play emerged this week, and for the first time this summer I am excited about some of the pieces being moved around.
Rather, Frank became safe and the majority alliance saw their plans crumble and the scrambling commenced. The lot of them behaved like a group of scolded dogs, running to Frank with their tail between their legs swearing it wasn't them. Despite being a Frank fan, I try not to give him more credit than he deserves, but in all fairness he sussed out who was being truthful with him pretty early on, and now knows where most of the houseguests chips lay.
The majority alliance is now faced with an essentially wasted week. Their target hasn't changed, and all they've done is put themselves in hot water with everyone outside of their core group. Frank, Bridgette, and Tiffany are all now aware of their positioning, and are poised to be able to shake things up.
Like I said, of course hindsight is 20/20 and the majority group couldn't have anticipated Frank's safety, but it doesn't change the fact that the result of their actions was overwhelmingly negative and all they did was show their cards to Frank.
From the chaos of the failed plan, a new partnership was spurred by the now-outsiders of the house, Tiffany and Frank.
Either way, Frank and Tiffany were able to look past that once the conversation was had that lead to the realization that the majority alliance was only using the two to fight like dogs against one another. I don't feel obligated to recap the entire encounter, but to refresh you the two essentially realized that they were only against one another because of the information being fed to them by Da'Vonne that was only partially true, and largely embellished to serve her purpose.
Here's where I stand on the partnership, I like it - but only because they had nothing to lose anyway. As our favorite "mathematician" (Bronte) would tell us, 'Big Brother is a game of numbers.' The smarter move on both of their behalves, would be to try to make amends with the majority alliance and get back in the numbers to continue fighting like dogs against one another. And when I say the smarter move, I simply mean the safer move. Either of them forgiving the majority alliance might earn them the grace of being forgotten about for a week or two, while the unforgiving of the two would become the central target yet again. They could feign their forgiveness and understanding and everyone in the majority would be so relieved they would likely just let them hangout for awhile. Also, just an aside, the majority alliance should've immediately taken Tiffany back under their wing to prevent her from blowing up their game - but instead Da'Vonne just laughed in the face of her tears.
But that's not how Frank or Tiffany role, and because the aforementioned scenario would be unlikely anyway, they decided to ride or die together. Its not typically smart to start an obvious minority alliance because it just makes you a bigger target to get picked off one by one, but where the two had nothing to lose as the obvious targets anyway, it makes sense in the sense that with both of their backs against the wall, two chances to win every competition and two sets of ears and eyes around the house can benefit them both more than simply lone-wolfing it might. Tiffany will likely still find her way out the door this week, but I respect that instead of laying down and taking it she is working to make the few moves she has at her disposal and fighting for her life in the BB house. Their partnership may not make a difference in the end, but it was the best move they both had on the table, and I respect them for recognizing that.
All that being said, I am a big believer in second chances, and I said in my first comments on Da'Vonne's return that I hope she proves me wrong and comes into this house as a new and improved player. Well, she didn't. And at this point it seems safe to say she will never be likely to stop creating drama, treat people right, and play with logic and strategy rather than emotion.
I was the first to pat Da'Vonne on the back for the way she handled "ass-slap gate" last week, refusing to blow up at Frank and rather taking to the diary room to air her emotions. That all fell by the wayside again this week, when she started a fight with both Frank and Tiffany, lying in front of the house when everyone knows she's lying, and creating drama and chaos in every room she enters.
You cant teach an old dog new tricks, and Da'Vonne is proving that. Its been a much talked about topic in the twitterverse, but the Safari Room seen where Tiffany is crying out of legitimate personal anguish for feeling isolated and alone on a level deeper than the game, and Da'Vonne is laughing at her and invalidating her feelings - to me - speaks to the kind of person Da'Vonne is. No one invalidated her feelings when she was upset over the ass-slapping, no one left her to face her demons alone, but when someone else is feeling down-and-out she laughs in their face. That behavior isn't just bad game play, its bad life play. Her superficial "lets call a timeout from the game" doesn't pay the bill, in my eyes. She only offered her affection to Tiffany as a calculation that she had to make up for the fact that she just laughed in her face over real, personal pain.
Beyond just showing her true colors, Da'Vonne has seemingly tried to take on a new tone (literally, a new tone of voice) when causing drama. Instead of (always) yelling and kicking and screaming - though she still does that too - she uses this quiet, patronizing voice. The, "I didn't start no drama in my season, Frank" voice, if you're looking for a reference. Patronizing is not any better for your game play than yelling and screaming is, in fact it might be worse. When you're yelling like a crazy person, at least people know you're authentic. When you're being patronizing and disingenuous, it only infuriates people further.
Da'Vonne seems to understand the game at its core, as in what makes a successful player and a winning formula, but she just has NO ability to implement it because she is so drastically different from the ingredients that comprise a Big Brother winner. I almost don't blame her.. its just who she is. She's not logical, and quiet, and calculating. She cant swallow her pride when she needs to, and align with someone she doesn't like on a personal level. Its not that she doesn't want to win, and its not that she doesn't know what it takes to win, its simply that she doesn't have the tools to win in her arsenal. It may not be this week, it may not be next week, but I promise you her days are numbered.
To round this out, I just want to reaffirm my now growing optimism for the season. I still think we have a cast of fishes-out-of-water, but we're finally seeing some people play the game - and with the Battle Back on the horizon, things are looking up. I think we have a ways to go, but BB18 could be a decent season, yet.
Until next week -

Unfortunately, most eCommerce websites don't do checkout very well.
I believe this is mainly because the website owners business objectives have been put before the needs and wants of the customer.
There are many things one can do to ensure we focus on the customers needs and change our checkout process accordingly, so I've listed some of the more critical areas and those where, the smallest change can be the most effective.
1. Don't force the account creation (registration) process
As a user, my need is to purchase a product – quickly, easily, and securely.
As a business owner, I want to make a sale as well as gather all the customer data I possibly can so that I can market and sell more products to my customers.
The problem here is that quite often, the gathering of this customer data is done at the first point within the checkout, by forcing users to create an account, or register, before they can complete their purchase, and this hinders the checkout process.
Experience has shown that this is one of the main reasons for cart abandonment.
Play.com still asks users to create an account
The customer is on your website to make a purchase, not necessarily develop a long-lasting relationship with you, so don't force this upon them.
Accounts can still be created once the checkout process is complete and the sale is made, simply by asking the user if he or she would like to save the information they have just entered. If the checkout experience has been a good one, the customer is quite likely to tick the box to create an account.
2. Ensure the checkout area is isolated or self-contained
Once the customer has reached the checkout area, you need to keep them in there by reducing the amount of distracting and unnecessary information available to the customer.
The ideal situation here is for the customer to get to the order confirmation page as quickly and easily as possible. This is a win/win situation. Don't make it easy to exit the checkout – do make it easy to find relevant information and help.
3. Have a short, stepped checkout process and show the customers where they are within the process
Work out what information you need from the customer.
It is usually some personal details, full address details and card/payment information.
Some etailers will also need to cater for entering of gift card or voucher information. Ensure that you only take the information you need, thus keeping the steps in checkout to a minimum.
Let customers know at what point they are in the checkout process.
Walmart do this well, with a completely isolated checkout and a stepped process showing where you are in the checkout process.
4. Make form filling easy and intuitive through good design and best practice
There are many web form standards in existence that should be implemented in your checkout if they aren't already. This includes:
1) Using asterisks for mandatory fields
2) Using drop downs where there are lists of options (e.g. Titles, Country Lists)
3) Using radio buttons when there are only a few options
Pay attention to the design of your forms. Field size should be reflective of the content you're expecting the user to enter and field labels should be aligned correctly.
Much research has been done into form field label positions and the impact they have on the clarity and speed of form completion.
Essentially it has been shown that the closer the label is to the field, the quicker and better the form can be completed. When designing your forms, make sure you give clear guidance information on what information you're asking the customer to input. A good example of this can be seen on Next.
The downside of this same form though, is that field sizes are misleading, especially with regards to the issue number and security code and the field labels are too are far away from the entry area, slowing down our customers.
5. Have clear delivery/shipping costs upfront
None of us likes rude surprises and there is nothing worse than having to complete a three-page form filling exercise only to be confronted with unexpected shipping costs.
This leads to users exiting your checkout, abandoning their cart half way through the checkout process.
It also leaves them feeling dissatisfied about your company and their online shopping experience. You need to tell your customers as soon as you possibly can what the actual shipping cost is going to be. Inform them prior to the checkout process what your standard delivery costs are – even if it is a range of costs – and calculate the actual as soon as you have all the necessary information.
Walmart does this well, allowing you to get shipping costs before you've even entered the checkout, just by typing in a zip code. They also show cheaper or free alternatives, like store collection, which is useful information to customers.
6. Reassure customers their card details are safe
When taking credit and debit card details, be sure to show off all your security credentials.
Show your customers they are in a safe area as well, with use of https and padlocks where appropriate. You can also take the opportunity to explain to customers who holds their card data and if it is your company, the encryption and security information regarding the database where their information is stored.
Looking at Play.com, they show security icons throughout the site in the footer, small and discreet. When you get to the first page of checkout, the icons are right next to the "create account" or "sign in". This is highly visible and very reassuring.
In summary, put your customers needs ahead of your own.
What kind of experience do you want to offer them on your website? A quick, easy and pleasant shopping experience will lead to satisfied customers.
Implementing these six simple changes will help ensure your cart abandonment rates decrease and your sales and customers experience satisfaction levels, increase.
