HI All If you can assist with this be very helpful.
I have data in a few tables with the common link in a column named 'Submmision ID'. In this column there are duplicates and this caused issue on creating the needed relationships. to get around this I used the method of Appending the the column into a new table and then removing the duplicates. this left me with a table with Submission ID that had no duplicates that is could link all my other column through.
Seen in the clip:
The one issue i am left with is that when is on Refreshing the data to my SQL data source to collect the new data, new duplicates are added. i then need to manually go though the process in the clip all over again.
Is it possible to automate the process above so that any new data that is duplicated is appended and then duplicates remove?
Hi @Colinu
The applied steps in M , will be performed in each refresh and as per that new duplicates should be removed and only unique duplicates should be added to the new table and this should happen automatically . Request you to check your design step by step, may be with example data to undersatnd where its going wrong.
some more points :
* If any one of your table has master list which contains all values, then you dont need to do the append. directly take the distinct vales from that column adn use that as briding table.
* You can do this ( the above step) in more dynamic way in DAX. Create new table in Modeeling-> New table using DAX formula DISTINCT of that master duplicated column and use that in relationship.
Hi Colinu,
In your senario, I would recommend you to use increment refresh: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-premium-incremental-refresh.

Play 'The Perverse Games of a Posh Wife' (VOD Exclusive)
Wanna play?
That's a dangerous question to ask Anna Polina's character in Marc Dorcel's The Perverse Games of a Posh Wife. When her husband, Eric, embarks on an affair with a beautiful blonde, he doesn't realize that this infidelity will be the first salvo in a twisted game of sexual one-upmanship.
The movie is structured in a flashback format. The opening scene finds Anna and Eric driving along a highway at night, exchanging dialogue that establishes the frosty nature of their relationship. "There's lots of roadblocks, huh?" Eric muses, in a vain attempt at conversation that subtly underlines the disconnect between the two. "Uh-huh, and is that a problem?" Anna responds, before demanding that Eric let her out of the car. When Eric gives chase, following Anna into a wooded area, he finds her engaging in a series of seemingly random sexual encounters with a lineup of very willing men. How did their marriage reach such a surreal and bizarre pass? As we ponder this unusual state of affairs, the action then switches to a more idyllic poolside scene, six months earlier, to fill in the gaps . . .
With its dark and fatalistic take on love and relationships, the movie is about as thoroughly French as it is possible to be. The sex scenes are passionate and edgy, laden with the emotional heft of the complex relationship of the primary characters. Even the name of the movie has intriguing subtleties! The original title name of the movie contains the word "bourgeoise" (roughly signifying "upper middle class"), a term loaded with cultural and historical implications. The Mercedes Benz featured on the movie's cover further reinforces the class status of the film's protagonist. Are these the scandalous and shocking acts that lurk behind the facade of the ruling class? The Posh Wife holds the answers!
The film was helmed by prolific Marc Dorcel director Herve Bodilis, who was also behind the camera for the company's mega-hit Megan Escort Deluxe. It's another subtle and sophisticated effort, and it's available exclusively on Adult Empire VOD until April 30th! Stream it here.

Heading out for an Easter morning date, Brooklyn Beckham and a lady friend hit up The Grove in West Hollywood on Sunday (March 31).
The eldest son of David and Victoria Beckham was dressed casually in a charcoal T-shirt, tan pants, and sneakers as he snagged Pinkberry with his gal before heading home.
No word on if the 14-year-old boy joined his mother in her holiday preparations before heading out for some non-family fun.

Between The Barlines - Little Comets, The Lonely Island, Horrible Histories, Sleigh Bells
Hello, and welcome to Between The Barlines! If all goes well, you are reading this right as I'm starting my first Junior Cert exam, English Paper One. And I'll be wringing my hands and gnashing my teeth (worse case scenario) while you'll be listening to awesome music in the comfort of your own bed/garden/exam hall/palace/rock. You lucky things. Anyway, on with the show!
Little Comets - Joanna
Well, if you like catchy tunes, musical changes, and songs about girls, Joanna ticks all those boxes. Is it vain that I'm a girl with a three syllable name and I keep listening to this? Or am I really easy to shame? Anyway, let's have a listen, shall we?
The Lonely Island - Jack Sparrow
So last week Daydream Believer posted this music video on her blog, calling it the 'Funniest Thing Ever', endquote. Honestly, you don't argue with Ms. Believer. Besides, why would you? Even though I have absolutely no idea who Michael Bolton is (Who is he? A singer?) my fascination with pirates and my adoration of Pirates of the Caribbean (haven't seen the new one yet, is it good?) make this one of the funniest songs ever, even if a little too obscene for my taste. Plus, it's catchy and clever.
Horrible Histories - Dick Turpin
Oh, Horrible Histories. See, I've always loved your books, ever since I was a kid, still do, and then you bring out a TV series? And that TV series turns out to be the best thing on television I have ever seen? Oh, you spoil me. And then, in the very first episode of the third series, your musical number is an Adam and the Ants take on the life of Dick Turpin, the famous highwayman? And when that musical number turns out to be so good? In the past few days, I have listened to it almost one hundred and fifty times. Seriously, this song is slowly but surely taking over Tumblr, and soon, the WORLD!
Horrible Histories - Literally: The Viking Song
As we all know, the Vikings liked pillaging monasteries, stealing gold, killing monks, that sort of thing. Another thing they liked was belting out soft rock classics, as shown in this Horrible ballad. Dare I say it... LITERALLY!!! *headbang* Also, a nice Queen homage in bits. I think I will do a Horrible Histories post soon! Yes!
Sleigh Bells - Rill Rill
For the first minute and a half of this video, I couldn't stop thinking 'Why the HELL is she driving on the wrong side of the car?!' But I suppose that's how they do it on the other side of the world. But anyway.
Compared to other songs on Treats, like Kids or Riot Rhythm, Rill Rill is a lot more paced, but doesn't really lose any energy that Treats had previous. I mean, it might make you feel more lethargic, but that's not the point. It's a good song!
And that marks the end of today's Between The Barlines! If I am very lucky, I might write a post about Horrible Histories before the exams end on June 17th. Might. Anyway, see you on the other side!

Good luck on your exam!
And I'm so happy you liked Sleigh Bells as much as I did!

What an amusing post, especially Dick Turpin. I don't know if the song is right about it or what (I'm terrible at history), but I imagine it is, right? Micheal Bolton, he sang How Am I Supposed to Live Without You. I probably only know that because my dad played old 80s music all the time when I was younger. Good luck on your finals!

Dear Readers,
I'm taking this time to let you know that I will be slowing down a bit with the blog. For most of my life, I've read a book a day. But a few years ago I started needing reading glasses, which I am not all that comfortable with, so that slowed down my reading. I do love reading on my Kindle or iPad sans glasses, but even that I find somewhat tiring as well. That slowed my reading down to 3-4 books a week. Yes, I can hear you laughing, I know that's still more than most people read but for me it felt strange.
As I got used to that, I discovered another vision problem, this one a bit more serious than just aging eyes. I was diagnosed with a rare form of glaucoma called Narrow Angle or Angle-Closure Glaucoma. I am very fortunate to live near the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, the best eye hospital in the country (US News & World Report) and had laser surgery called laser iridotomy. The ophthalmologist also has me using prescription eye drops.
A year or so later, I started having vision problems again. Blurry vision, night blindness, intermittent spots before my eyes, all of which made reading more difficult. I've now added another eye drop to my day which is helping a bit. I go back to the doctor next week and will see what he has to say.
Meanwhile, I'm down to reading just a couple of books a week and since my job keeps me on a computer for most of the day, which I find fatiguing to my eyes, it is also slowing down my review process.
Is there a bigger fear in life for a reader than losing one's vision? Not for me. So I'm being prudent here, slowing things down, and I wanted to let you all know.
If you subscribe to the blog, you will be notified when I post a new review. Otherwise, check back when you can. I have some awesome videos to share, including an interview with Diana Gabaldon that Outlander fans won't want to miss! And of course, I am still giving away books.
Thanks for your understanding, and hopefully this will just be a minimal setback. One can only hope for the best…

Kidney infections are a kind of UTI (urinary tract infection) which crop up when some bacteria makes way into the kidneys and begins to multiply. When a person has a kidney infection, it is crucial that he or she get prompt treatment so as to put off any permanent damage and any additional infection that might be a threat to life. Medical treatments include antibiotics, often even hospitalization. Healthy diets can maintain an ailing person's recovery process as well as helps to protect the body from budding subsequent infections. We recommend that you seek guidance from a doctor for best results.
This article focuses on the 10 foods that help with a kidney infection recovery.
1. Yogurt and Fermented Milk
Fermented milk and Yogurt contains probiotics that are healthy bacteria which support one's digestive health. These probiotics might also assist in protecting the urinary tract against infections (stated by the University of Maryland Medical Center). If you wish to gain benefits of the probiotics, you should ideally incorporate some
yogurt and live active cultures like acidophilus. Also, add milk products (fermented) in your diet, for example buttermilk or kefir and make sure your daily diet has these ingredients. Fermented milk as well as yogurt also provides a very rich amount of protein that helps to support lean tissue revival and strengthens the immune system. Furthermore, it has valuable nutrients like Vitamin D and calcium.
2. Berries
Rich source of antioxidants- Berries help the body in protecting itself from infections and in healing after a disease. Fruits which contain tannins (substance that inhibits infections) like for example blueberries, lingonberries and cranberries may well offer protection against a Urinary Tract Infection. Additionally, cranberry juice happens to be the most widely-studied and helpful home remedy when it comes to a Urinary Tract Infection (as stated by the University of Maryland Medical Center).
If you are suffering from a kidney infection, you should regularly drink cranberry juice as this will help in reducing the incidence of persistent kidney infections like UTIs. Cranberry juice will also help the body to flush out the toxins in the form of urine when you are having any kidney infection. Food that contain berry, for instance lingonberry syrup (pure), blueberry yogurt, as well as mixed-berry smoothie will provide the same benefits.
3. Fluids
Apart from cranberry juice, there are also other fluids like water, grape, vegetable and apple juice, soup and gelatin, herbal tea that are really helpful when recovering from kidney infections. Doctors recommend that one should avoid citrus juices, caffeine and alcohol until your kidneys have recovered. Hydration needs will vary for every person, but it is recommended that you drink at least 8 – 10 cups fluid every day until the urine becomes pale yellow or clear.
4. Flax-seed, Walnuts and Fatty Fish
Walnuts, flax-seed, and fatty fish-all supply omega-3 fatty acids, which are healthy fats that are said to encourage the health of your heart and also reduces inflammation. Adding sources of omega-3 fat in your diet will help alleviate and prevent inflammation in the urinary tract (as stated by the University of Maryland Medical Center)…also it will enhance one's overall wellness. If you wish to gain maximum results, you should eat fatty fish like salmon, halibut, mackerel, albacore tuna, flounder, sardines, walnuts, ground flaxseed, and walnut oil, etc. on a regular basis.
5. Cucumber
It is said that cucumber helps in removing toxins from the body. Also, they are very good for the kidney and easy to digest.
6. Legumes
Legumes hold numerous vitamins, especially Vitamin B, which is said to be an essential weapon when it comes to combating a kidney infection.
7. Vitamin B Rich Fruits
Fruits that are rich in Vitamin B are said to be extremely beneficial for treating a kidney infection. The Vitamin helps in flushing toxins out of one's body. Fruits that help are papayas, bananas and watermelon.
8. Celery
This is a great provider of fiber and contains a very high content of water as well as vitamin C. We all know that Vitamin C's a great source when it comes to repairing any tissue damages as well as it boosts the body's immunity.
9. Asparagus
This is said to have a high folate concentration as well as the fact that it is rich in vitamin C. Both these elements are said to be very effective when it comes to curing a kidney infection.
10. Red Grapes
It is believed that red grapes have numerous flavonoids which give them the red color. The flavonoids is what helps in protecting you against any disease of the heart, as it prevents the oxidation and also reduces blood clot formations. Resveratrol's the flavonoid that is present in grapes and it might stimulate nitric oxide production that will in turn help relax the muscle cells inside your blood vessels, thereby increasing the flow of blood. Flavonoid also offers protection from cancer as well as prevents inflammation.
Here are some other food items that really help when you have a kidney infection….we recommend that you include them in your daily diet:
•Red Bell Pepper
•Olive Oil
- It is recommended that you eat 75 percent raw foods like potatoes, celery, garlic, parsley, cucumber and bananas.
- When having a kidney infection or when recovering from one, try and avoid eating meat. Excess proteins will cause problems, plus meat holds numerous waste products, bacteria, uric acid and purines.
- Try and avoid consuming dairy products (remember yogurt is still recommended in your diet). Keep away from cocoa and chocolates!
- Every hour, try and drink at least 6 to 8 ounces distilled water.
- Pumpkin seeds and watermelon help kidneys to recover.
- It is said that a specific kind of tea (Corn-silk) is one herb that is considered the BEST for increasing the flow of urine and helps in restoring kidneys. Also, celery, watermelon-seed tea and parsley seed are all diuretics.
- Cranberry (juice and/or fruit) helps in acidifying the urine, destroys bacteria and restores the bladder.
- Try and avoid excessive phosphorous and potassium. It is said that one should avoid spinach, beet greens, Swiss chard and rhubarb.

Getting a college education isn't cheap. Tuition prices skyrocketed between 1997 and 2017, jumping an incredible 237 percent at in-state public universities. Many families lack the savings to cover even a $1,000 emergency, let alone the $40,000 or more needed for an undergraduate degree. If you want to help your children go to college but can't pay for it yourself, you might feel discouraged or unsure about what to do next. However, you can still help your kids get money for college without breaking the bank.
Start Saving Now
It's never too early to start saving for college. Before you know it, your precious little one will be applying to universities. Help them prepare by setting up a 529 college savings plan in your name, even if you can only invest $20 a week. These state-sponsored plans offer tax advantages and compounding interest. If you're worried you can't save enough or it's too late to get started, don't let that stop you. Which is better: $1,000 saved for college, or nothing?
Put a CD in Their Stocking
No, we're not talking about the latest Beyoncé album. Teach your child about saving money by using part of your gift-buying budget to get them a certificate of deposit. CDs start at just $500, with interest rates averaging between one to three percent. Look into CD laddering and step-rate CDs to maximize your investment. Ask your family and friends to consider contributing to your child's college savings instead of buying expensive gifts. A CD may not be as exciting as a new video game or toy, but your child will be glad to have that money when they are in college.
Fill Out the FAFSA
As soon as your child is eligible, be sure to fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. Nearly every student qualifies for federal financial aid from free Pell Grants, subsidized or unsubsidized student loans, and work-study programs. Don't leave money on the table by missing the FAFSA deadline. Additionally, you should research financial aid offered directly by colleges to see which of your child's top picks are the most generous with their own scholarships, grants, and loans.
Get a Private Student Loan
Even if you're approved for a Stafford, Perkins, or Parent PLUS federal loan, make sure you also investigate and compare private student loans. Many banks and credit unions offer private loans for school, which can take the place of a federal loan or supplement one if you need more money. With good credit, private loan interest rates and terms will often be better than a federal loan. You can also help your child build credit by co-signing their own private student loan.
Make a Plan Together
Paying for college can be stressful, but don't let fear or guilt keep you from making a plan. Have an honest conversation with your child about college expenses, find out what their goals are, and work together to decide the best way to reach those goals. By sharing the burden and responsibility, you can help your kids pay for college and save your sanity.

Burrard Inlet Harbour Tour
Join us for a waterbird's eye view of Burrard Inlet and learn about the birds that use the coastal habitats alongside port operations. Andrea MacLeod, birder and manager of the port authority's environmental programs team, will guide a birding boat tour of the inlet and talk about Port of Vancouver's operations and environmental programs. This is a great opportunity to learn about the birds that live in #myportcity.
The Fraser River Delta Important Bird Area (IBA) is crucial to globally significant numbers of birds that rely on the delta for food and shelter. Despite of this IBA's biodiversity value it is under immense development pressure from a myriad of factors as we increase our footprint on the land, so much so that it was recently designated as an IBA in Danger. What can be done to save this IBA? Can we live in harmony with the delta or will we continue to destroy it? What do we see as a future for this incredible jewel that we live around. Join Dr. Bradley for an exploration of these themes at the Van Dusen Gardens on Wednesday 10th May at 7:30pm
Registration is limited and photo ID will be required. Please contact Andrea at 604-353-3866 to register.
This event is offered by Port of Vancouver and Bird Studies Canada

I like Hobart.
The small city on the edge of Tasmania, is the state capital and also its most populous city. With a population of 221,000 nearly half of all Tasmanians live here.
Founded in 1804 by Colonel David Collins, Hobart is the second oldest city in Australia. It was founded as a penal settlement of Australia, itself a penal colony.
It is a small city, though. But it's quirky.
Hobart architecture
Full of weird architecture – old, well-preserved colonial houses, much of it dating back to the Georgian and Victorian eras, mixed with modern ones.
Small wooden houses versus tall glass towers. Fun street art. Little bars.
After arriving in our central Hotel, we stared out little afternoon walk around the Central Business District. We passed the impressive post office and the Tasmanian museum and art gallery, and walked over to the little harbor.
The Waterfront is now one of the city's most fashionable areas. Along the small docks are a number of restaurants and bars, the university, city hall and a number of former warehouses.
It's a port city, and can't deny it.
We came the week before the Royal Hobart Regatta, a series of aquatic competitions and displays held annually since 1838!
So the city was already buzzing with events, and a number of ships were already anchoring in the port.
We walked over to Salamanca Place, a precinct of Hobart consisting of rows of former warehouses for the port of Hobart that have been converted into restaurants, galleries, craft shops and offices.
Each Saturday, Salamanca Place is the site for the Salamanca Market, a beautiful market I had visited during my trip around the world.
Battery point
A bit uphill from there, we discovered a small, quiet neighborhood full of old Victorian wooden houses and beautiful rose gardens.
It's called Battery Point, and it's the historic centre of Hobart. The old port area was named after the big gun battery, which used to stand next to the port's guardhouse.
The area was once a thriving area, which can still be seen in its houses: charming workers' cottages or grand mansions.
We took a stroll around and snooped into some interesting small shops, cafés, restaurants and public houses.

Your kitchen faucet's spray head has several small, round nozzles on its face, each dispensing water in a thin stream. This forms a spray of water ideal for cleaning and rinsing dishes. The small size of the sprayer nozzles make them prone to clogging from sediment buildup. Minerals block the sprayer head, depleting the spray pressure and lowering the overall impact of the water on your dishes. Solve this problem by regularly cleaning the spray head.
Step 1
Detach the face of the kitchen sprayer head or the plastic nozzle guard over the head of the sprayer. Insert the sprayer head key into the front of the sprayer and turn it counterclockwise or as recommended by your manufacturer's cleaning and care instructions.
Step 2
Turn on the water, then turn it back off. Hold the sprayer over the sink and carefully run your fingers over the nozzles while the sprayer head is still wet. Operate the sprayer once more to determine if the sediment buildup is clear. If not, proceed to the next step.
Step 3
Continue to rub your fingers over the sprayer until it returns to normal operation. Run them in a sweeping motion and make contact with all the nozzle heads to clean each one successfully. This is all that is required to clean the sprayer head.

The Office Cat
A letter that came this week from Jean Newsome Casey who was born in Washington and lived here until she married James Casey and went to live in Polk County (Cedartown,) gives several interesting items. Jean is the daughter of the late G.B. and Mary Taylor Newsome, both of whom are native Wilkes Countians and lifetime residents. Jean sent a copy of a Valentine post card which her dad sent to her mother in 1934, andithasa11/2centstamponit. It costs 32 cents to mail a post card today. Another unusual thing about the card was that it was addressed simply as Miss Mary Taylor, Washington, Ga., something that caused no problem in 1934. Jean also said that Polk County hosted a Tough Mudder event a couple of years ago. After being denied a request to have beer available on the premises the sponsors said they would never go back to Polk County, although they were impressed with the facility. ... "The misspelling of Aonia (highway sign) insulted me," Jean said. She grew up in the heart of Aonia.
Here's a new twist to an old, old story. I read in The Augusta Chronicle that Bob Young, ex-mayor of Augusta, has written a novel titled The Treasure Train, set in Augusta during the closing days of the Civil War. Sound familiar? The book's central character is Confederate Treasury Agent Patrick Graham who is sent to Augusta to break up a major counterfeiting operation, and is challenged to protect railroad cars that are filled with Confederate gold. The article said that Young's research led him to Washington-Wilkes and Abbeville, S.C. The official release date for the novel is March 3.
The American Revolution Musical presented by a cast of children and puppets, and directed by Ginny King, Saturday and Sunday at the Bolton Lunceford Playhouse was a tremendous success. It was a good show and I hear that it is to be an annual presentation. ... There were many people in town for the Revolutionary Days weekend, with a lively parade and re-enactment in Fort Washington Park, and many other activities.
And the late Andy Rooney says, "I've learned that being kind is more important than being right."
Gas prices continue to rise. As of Monday, from west to east on Highway 78 through Washington, prices ranged from $3.55, to $3.57, $3.53, and $3.64.
Dolores McAvoy's nephew, 56-year-old Paul Dennis, has died while on a mission trip to Haiti. Paul lived in Washington-Wilkes briefly when he was a child and his home in recent years has been in Fargo, North Dakota, where he was a traffic control official at the airport. No further details have been released.
Anna Stover, Washington-Wilkes' much-traveled young lady, is back in the United States to stay a while. Anna's visa expired for her stay in England, so she is now headquartered in Washington, D.C., and still flying for United Airlines. It's good to know she is closer by. Anna is Jerry Stover and Celeste Stover's daughter.
We will be seeing another house on this year's Spring Tour of Homes March 31 and April 1 that has never, ever, been on a Tour of Homes. The home of the late Charles Irvin and his mother, the late Ida Lee Irvin, on West Robert Toombs Avenue is now owned by Charles' niece, Reba Griffin of Atlanta, and will be included in this year's tour .
I tried, but there was no way I could get the names of all of the Washington-Wilkes folks who participated in the Tough Mudder Georgia, event at Aonia Pass Motocross Park Saturday and Sunday. Reports that I got were that the parking lot was full and cars were parked on both sides of the road all the way to Ebenezer Baptist Church. Washington- Wilkes firefighters had their hands full controlling the "controlled fires" on the course in the high winds that we had Saturday, and of course hypothermia was a major problem for the Emergency Medical Service people. The names that I was able to get are residents now or have been residents in the past. They are Jeff Treadwell, Roy Norman, Steven Deal, Bill Dorminy, Rick Dorminy, Kelley ???, Katie Henderson Beck, Jack and Lisa Davis, Dr. Lester Johnston, Tom Deverger, Evan Harrison (who brought a team from Georgia Tech,) John and Dan Duggan III, Rodney Fowler, and Beegee Elder. The main comment I heard from participants was that if the wind had not been so ferocious it would have been "loads of fun." ... I'm still collecting names of participants, so if you were one, please tell me.
Tonight (Thursday, February 16,) is the time for the annual Washington Wilkes Chamber of Commerce Banquet when the STAR Student, Joel Fair, and STAR Teacher, Eric Holton, are recognized and other awards are presented. ... It's hard to believe that the annual Junior Steer and Heifer Show and Sale is coming up on March 3-4.

Finney County Extension Agents
Ready ... set ... back to school! Children in Garden City return to school next week. Our family has been busy after the county fair with enrollments, sports practice, and shopping for clothes and school supplies.
But preparing for a new school year involves more than shopping for clothes or shoes.
Children who are returning to school or moving on to a new school � be it a middle or high school or a school in a new neighborhood or different town � may benefit from some assurance from their parents. Here are some tips:
* Talk about the new school year, but don't dwell on it.
* Schedule a get-acquainted meeting with your child's teacher. Visit the school. Ask to see the classroom and help your child find the way to restrooms, the lunch room or cafeteria, gym, playground, etc.
* Visit the local public library. The library environment is conducive to reading and exploring new interests.
* Begin winding down the summer schedule. Strive for a more consistent schedule, including regular bed and breakfast times.
* Be positive. Let your child know that you value education.
Twelve tips for parents for the new school year:
* Make an appointment to meet your child's teacher.
* Learn school policies and follow them.
* Model respect for teachers and encourage your child to do the same.
* Create an environment that is conducive to learning at home: Establish a study area and limit diversions � radio, television, telephone calls and music � during study hours.
* Celebrate effort, rather than grades, and learning, rather than test scores.
* Encourage the child to pursue his or her interests. Try not to pressure your child into pursuing your interests or interests that you wish you had pursued.
* Reinforce learning out of the classroom through extracurricular activities, family activities and one-on-one time.
* Listen to what your child is saying and learn to be a good observer. Watch for signs that your child is developing new interests and then nurture them.
* Model lifelong learning. Nurture your own interests and build skills.
* Engage your child in conversation, but don't grill him or her. Children often are more likely to tell a parent about their day when they are engaged in another activity, such as setting the table or taking a walk after supper.
* Try not to make homework an issue. Allow a child to take the responsibility for what he or she does or doesn't do.
* Invoke Grandma's rule: Eat your veggies before dessert and finish your homework before moving on to the fun stuff.
Have a successful school year!
All-in-one youth activity
Do F-stops cause your brain to freeze? Join 4-H! Life's little questions aren't meant to be answered alone. Join 4-H � the club of families who share in teaching kids practical things, life skills and values like responsibility.
Why should I participate in my 4-H club? Well, you're missing out if you don't. Clubs are a way to interact with other youth. You can also often find answers to project questions in your club. Clubs are a community that is there to support each other in learning, create better youth and, most importantly, have fun. They can do it without you, but it sure would be better with your participation.
Four-H is just about the fair, right? Not really ... though good things happen at the fair, 4-H can happen without the fair. I know right now you are saying "WHAT!?!?," but it's true.
How do I sign up for 4-H? You can sign up at the Finney County Extension Office. There are no enrollment fees. Families need to decide what they are willing to put into projects for themselves. Some project meetings may have fees for materials.
After I sign up as a 4-H member, then what do I do? Join a 4-H Club! We have a list of great local clubs. Four-H is best when members are active in a community club. Many life skills are learned in this setting such as leadership, citizenship and communication. They will help you get started and learning about 4-H and your projects.
I want to do a project, but there isn't a leader. What do I do? Unfortunately, some projects don't have leaders. That doesn't mean you can't learn! You can check out project books at the Extension office, or buy project books online at www.4-hmall.org, or your parents can help you, or friends that are knowledgeable about the area you are interested in. 4-H is an informal learning process that should be fun and family oriented.
How many projects should I do? In your first year, we recommend you only take on one or two projects. They can be time consuming and you want to do a good job. Then you can take more because you will have a better understanding of what you are taking on.
Where do I find information? Good question! There are lots of resources. The Extension office located at 501 S. Ninth St.; www.finney.ksu.edu; http://www.kansas4-h.org; and leaders are always a great source of information and if you don't know one, talk to the Extension office.
There are many resource materials at http://www.kansas4-h.org/ and http://pinterest.com/kansas4h/.
What is the point of the Finney County Extension Office? We are here for you! We work to help you succeed. We are here to facilitate the 4-H program events and activities. We are happy to do things if you ask, but please be respectful of our staff, as they work very hard. Let us know what we can do for you and we will do our best.
Join 4-H, the club of families that tackles life's little questions together to grow great kids.
Ag Field Day set for Aug. 29
Field tours and seminars on topics ranging from water issues to cover crops to comparisons of weed control in irrigated corn are highlights at the Kansas State Research and Extension field day planned Aug. 29 at the Southwest Research-Extension Center, 4500 E. Mary St.
The field day begins at 8 a.m., with the program starting at 9:15 a.m. The day ends with a complimentary lunch served at noon.
Field tour topics include: comparisons of weed control otions in teff, forage sorghum and sorghum-sudangrass for catch crop forage; comparisons of herbicide carryover in teff, forage sorghum and sorghum-sudangrass; comparisons of weed control in irrigated corn with 48 herbicide tank mixes; herbicide-resistant Inzen sorghum for post-emergence grass and broadleaf weed control; weed control with 32 herbicide tank mixes for irrigated sorghum; effects of AQUAmax hybrid corn on spider mite populations; and enhancing sorghum nitrogen use efficiency through fertilizer management.
Seminars include: Effects of different irrigation levels on western corn rootworm root injury to Bt and isoline plants; cover crops in western Kansas; and water issues in western Kansas: It's not just the water level.
Attendees who participate in the tour can earn 1.0 credit hour for category 1A commercial pesticide applicator recertification and 0.5 credit hour for participating in "Effects of AQUAmax Hybrid Corn on Spider Mite Populations."
New wheat publications
K-State Research and Extension has posted two new agriculture-related publications online that are available free to the public.
The "2013 Kansas Performance Tests with Winter Wheat Varieties" publication provides the results of annual comparisons of new and currently-grown winter wheat varieties in major crop-producing areas of the state. The tests generate information designed to help Kansas growers select wheat varieties suited for their area and conditions.
Another publication, "Wheat Variety Disease and Insect Rating 2013," provides information on wheat genetic resistance to diseases and insect pests, which is typically the most effective, economical and environmentally sound method of control. The ratings represent the results of multiple field and greenhouse evaluations by public and private wheat researchers. The ratings can help producers select wheat varieties to plant and minimize the potential for yield losses.
Visit the K-State Research and Extension Bookstore (http://www.ksre.ksu.edu/bookstore/Default.aspx) to view these new publications, as well as other fact sheets and publications on a wide variety of research-based information from K-State Research and Extension.
If you have any questions about the Field Day, wheat varieties or other concerns, contact Finney County Extension Agent David Coltrain at 272-3670, or email email@example.com.

Disrupting malaria: How Fyodor Biotechnologies is changing the game

With almost half of its population living in urban areas, Senegal is ahead of Sub-Saharan Africa's average urbanization rate of 40%. Senegal's urban population has almost doubled in the last few decades, rising from 23% in 1960 to 43% in 2013, and is projected to reach 60% by 2030. This growth comes with immense challenges, but also constitutes an opportunity for Senegalese policymakers to structurally transform the Senegalese economy.
Of the total US$15.4 billion pledged by the international community at the end of the first day of the meeting of the Consultative Group on Côte d'Ivoire held on May 17, 2016 in Paris, the World Bank Group (IDA, IFC, MIGA) will commit the sum of US$5 billion (CFAF 2500 billion) to finance Côte d'Ivoire's Second National Development Plan (NDP) covering the period 2016-2020. This amount is double the sum allocated during the previous period (2012-2016), proof—if any were needed—that the World Bank is more than ever committed to helping Côte d'Ivoire achieve emerging country status. This new country partnership framework between the World Bank Group and Côte d'Ivoire is an important milestone.
Following a long tradition of economists, the newly-elected government in Benin can gain inspiration from geography. For economist Jeffrey Sachs, university professor at New York's Columbia University, many tropical countries have failed to grow because their hot climate facilitated the propagation of epidemic diseases. Economist Paul Collier, professor of economics and public policy in the Blavatnik School of Government at the University of Oxfod, has argued that Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is lagging because of its disproportionate number of people living far from the ocean and thus from global markets. Similarly, French historian Fernand Braudel's work reminds us that many urban centers only became "true" drivers of growth when they were able to host processing industries, which are usually absent in Africa.
In recent years, China's presence in sub-Saharan Africa has risen rapidly. Many fear that China spells doom for the Kenyan economy. Producers of manufactured goods, for example, face more competition from China in both foreign and domestic markets. Others argue that China will exploit Kenya's resources and leave it unable to industrialize. If the manufacturing sector fails to take off, it will be harder to move people out of poverty.
A comparison of costs of living across major cities in the world regularly intrigues people. The latest annual report by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), for example, points to Singapore as the most expensive city to live in. The cheapest city in the ranking of 133 cities is Lusaka in Zambia, followed by two Indian cities Bangalore and Mumbai.
The World Bank (WB) has set an ambitious goal of securing universal access to formal financial services by 2020. Although 700 million people have signed up for a bank account since 2011, about two billion worldwide remain unbanked. As the WB seeks to expand worldwide financial inclusion, it should look to Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) for inspiration.
Africa stands at a crossroads. Economic growth has taken root across much of the region. In many countries, exports are booming, foreign investment is on the rise and dependence on aid is declining. Governance reforms are transforming the political landscape. Democracy, transparency and accountability have improved, giving Africa's citizens a greater voice in decisions that affect their lives.

Curiosity is a fundamental human trait but the object and degree of that curiosity is different depending on the person and the situation. This according to Astrophysicist and author of Why? What Makes Us Curious, Mario Livio, is determined by both nature and nurture.
Generally, curiosity is well-expressed in all children but tends to decrease or disappear in adults due to the many restrictions on exploring and wondering imposed by education, laws, and society. It can be enhanced by asking questions, by encouraging people to be curious about things or can be suppressed sometimes by government, culture, ideologies, and so on.
What is Science Curiosity?
Professor of psychology and law at Yale Law School in New Haven, Dan Kahan defined Science Curiosity as a desire to seek out and consume scientific information just for the pleasure of doing so. People who are science curious do this because they take satisfaction in seeing what science does to resolve mysteries.
This is different from somebody who would show interest in scientific information because they had a specific goal like wanting to do well in school or get a job. Science-curious people are driven by the pure activity of consuming what science knows. For instance, Albert Einstein was a science curious person. He once said, "I have no special talents, I am only passionately curious."
Curiosity provides the impetus for us to be able to investigate the universe we are in. Exploration and discovery have formed the basis of all scientific endeavor. Asking questions is the fundamental expression and genesis of all research. We can ask how, where, what, who and when? and the most important question of all, when attempting to understand the true nature of knowledge, is to ask the question why?
African Gerontocratic Culture
Largely, Africa has curiosity-suppressing traditional and religious beliefs. It is largely a Gerontocratic society. According to George Sefa Dei, in in his paper, Afrocentricity: Cornerstone to Pedagogy (1994), Gerontocracy is "the traditional African respect for the authority of elderly persons for their wisdom, knowledge of community affairs, and 'closeness' to the ancestors." This kind of leadership according to Kwasi Wiredu, in his book, Philosophy and an African Culture, resulted to authoritarian traditions in Africa which are responsible for the lack of sustained curiosity to look at issues from different perspectives.
Authoritarian, paternalistic, and traditionalist cultures are strengthened when curiosity is contained or suppressed, but undermined when curiosity is unleashed. A submissive, incurious populace is less likely to depose the existing elites.
As social arrangements are shot through and through with the principle of unquestioning obedience to superiors, hardly any premium is placed on curiosity in those of tender age, or independence of thought in those of more considerable years and since curiosity results to being sceptical of the explanations and ideas propounded by others, including authorities, whether these they are political or religious leaders, curiosity is seen as rebellion because it undermines the social order.
Though there were remarkable Scientific achievements in Africa in the past, they were less based on systematic research and not driven by curiosity but largely due to the necessity to solve pressing daily problem. Science was not separate from spirituality, religion, culture, and everyday African life, and Africa was culturally and intellectually independent as such was not relying on science or technology from western or oriental civilizations.
In present times however, colonization and then globalization has eliminated those factors that drove scientific development in the continent. This has laid bare the effect of the lack of scientific curiosity in the continent. Scientific curiosity is the true incentive to carry out research and the lack of it has led to low-interest in scientific research and contributed to decline in scientific or technological development in the continent.
Scientific research is not so easy, since it always is risky, expensive, and takes lots of time to complete. Hence, curiosity as a motivation for doing research must be quite strong in scientists.
Incurably Religious
Orthodox religious beliefs generally discourage people from questioning core tenets which are supposed to be accepted on faith as maintaining religious orthodoxy means holding on to specific beliefs against any challenges or questions from the outside.
Religious orthodoxy is imperilled by too much intellectual curiosity because no religion can completely satisfy all doubts and challenges. Not long ago, Pope Francis actually stated that "the spirit of curiosity distances one from God."
The more widely a person reads and studies, the harder it can be to hold on to traditional, orthodox beliefs for with greater curiosity, people are more willing to take new information into account when forming their opinions about the world.
According to Dr. Pervez Hoodbhoy, a Pakistani physicist and professor at Quaid-e-Azam University in Islamabad, who wrote on Islam and science in 1991 in his book "Islam and Science, Religious Orthodoxy and the Battle for Rationality," Muslims are seriously underrepresented in science, accounting for fewer than 1 percent of the world's scientists while they account for almost a fifth of the world's population. Israel which is surrounded by Muslim countries, he reports, has almost twice as many scientists as the whole Muslim countries put together.
Among other sociological and economic factors, like the lack of a middle class, Dr. Hoodbhoy attributes the malaise of Muslim science to an increasing emphasis over the last millennium on rote learning based on the Koran.
"The notion that all knowledge is in the Great Text is a great disincentive to learning," he said. "It's destructive if we want to create a thinking person, someone who can analyse, question and create." There has been an effort to "Islamicize" science by portraying the Koran as a source of scientific knowledge.
Dr. Hoodbhoy said the religion had criticized the concept of cause and effect. Educational guidelines once issued by the Institute for Policy Studies in Pakistan, for example, included the recommendation that physical effects not be related to causes.
For example, it was not Islamic to say that combining hydrogen and oxygen makes water. "You were supposed to say," Dr. Hoodbhoy recounted, "that when you bring hydrogen and oxygen together then by the will of Allah water was created."
Africans are very religious and religion play a major role in everything they do. Before western influence and Jihad, they did everything based on religion and organize their societies religiously. Though presently, Africans are mostly adherents of Christianity, Islam, which they often combine with their traditional beliefs, they remained very religious, even more than the people who introduced the religions to them. As such Africa is overly affected by religious dogmatism and fanaticism.
Tribalism and Collectivism
Africans are tribalistic and communalistic in culture as such are drawn to members of their tribes or religion and tends to live in groups and act collectively. This has helped in the retention of the dogmatism of Christianity and Islam among African Christians and Muslims for it is true that any tribalistic and communalistic group of people will exert social pressure on its members to conform to the beliefs and assumptions of the other members.
This culture has also made it easy for ideologies and traditions that suppress scientific curiosity and rationality to flourish among Africans for groups of individuals sharing some common goal or belief can easily come to entirely irrational or even self-destructive conclusions, as each member reinforces and magnifies the similar beliefs held by others.
The truth is that though curiosity is a part of human nature, the desires for social belonging is also a part of human nature.

McCulloch, William A., has been a resident of the town since 1832. He was born February 14, 1810, and is a son
of Hathorn McCulloch, who emigrated from Scotland in 1803 and died in 1859. Mr. McCulloch resides upon a portion
of a tract of land situated about one mile and a half from the village of Greenbush upon which, during the war
of 1812, extensive barracks were erected, making it the chief military station near the northern frontier during
that contest with the mother country, and, measurably, historic ground. The tract was purchased from the United
States government in the year 1831, by Hathorn McCulloch above mentioned, after whose decease the portion not disposed
of during his lifetime to William A. McCulloch, was divided between his grandchildren, William H. Kirtland and

In an ongoing assault on human rights by the Philippine government, 43 health workers were illegally arrested and detained on February 6, 2010 in Morong, Rizal, Philippines. They are still illegally being held at the Philippine Military Camp Capinpin and have endured continuous ill treatment and torture in the military camp. Families of some of the 43 health workers have also reported harassment by the military. This situation is critical. Each day that the 43 health workers are not released, it is one more day they have to endure pain, fear, and torture.

Gateshead had two good results last week after suffering a rare two defeats in a row.
Yesterday Gateshead progressed to the next round of the FA trophy after a 2-1 victory over Shepshed Dynamo at the International Stadium.
On Wednesday they went second top of the Unibond Premier League with a hard fought 1-0 win at home to Ossett Town.
Gateshead get through to next round of FA Trophy yesterday
Manager Ian Bogie made some changes from the side that secured a 1-0 victory against Ossett Town on Wednesday night with Phil Cave, Jamie Harwood and Davey Southern making way for Talbot, Robson and Thompson in a 3-5-2 formation.
17 minutes into the game and the home side went in front when new recruit and former Newcastle player Kris Gate fired home his first goal for the club from six yards. But Gateshead's lead lasted just four minutes when Shepshed Dynamo hit back when Matt Hill headed across goal and Tommy Leighton guided the ball into the net to make it -1-1.
In the second half Gateshead took the lead again when a through ball by former Newcastle man Jamie McClen found Robson, who was brought down for a penalty. Paul Thompson made no mistake from the resulting spot kick and Gateshead were ahead 2-1. In injury time, for the second time in three games, Gateshead had a man sent off when Southern received a straight red card for dissent.
On Wednesday evening a goal in injury time from striker Graeme Armstrong gave Gateshead a fortunate 1-0 win over Ossett Town. The win took Gateshead to second in the UniBond Premier Division 6 points behind leaders Witton Albion but with 2 games in hand.
The Tyneside club created lots of opportunities at the International Stadium, but Ossett defended resolutely and had a chance to win the game when Walshaw hit the post eight minutes from time. Graeme Armstrong finally hit the winner with a nice header into the bottom corner in injury time. Gateshead have made a great start in the Unibond Premier Division winning 8 and drawing 2 of their first 11 games and are well placed at second top.
But straight talking manager Bogie was not too pleased with the performance on Wednesday night, and thought his side lucky to get anything out of the game.
He said:
"It was a scrappy, below-par display. Ossett outplayed us for the majority of the game and did not deserve to lose at the death."
"We created the better chances but there was not enough zip, we did not dominate and our reactions were slow with one or two players feeling sorry for themselves."
"Under the circumstances I am delighted with the win and a clean sheet and central defenders James Curtis and Richard Flynn were both commanding."
While Gateshead have not played well these last 2 games they have won – which is always the sign of a good team.

I thought the one thing was pretty obviously supposed to be happiness.
id be curious to see if a change in directorial tone would remedy the constrained awkward feeling of the pciture.
i really loved this movie as well -- and roger ebert called it BRILLIANT!!!!
It kind of reminded me of a Woody Allen movie, but I certainly prefer the majority of Allen's movies to 13 Conversations.
A. Uh, well Alan Arkin was great in it. And so was Clea Duvall. B. Calling it a poor man's Magnolia....that's kind of harsh.C. The script wasn't that badD. ...the schedule that they had to shoot on was very constrainingE. ...I give it 3 out of five
Calling the script dull, depressing and cliche really isn't right at all.

This paper attempts to raise some issues that are important for graduate students to be successful and to get as much out of the process as possible, and for advisors who wish to help their students be successful. The intent is not to provide prescriptive advice-no formulas for finishing a thesis or twelve-step programs for becoming a better advisor are given-but to raise awareness on both sides of the advisor-student relationship as to what the expectations are and should be for this relationship, what a graduate student should expect to accomplish, common problems, and where to go if the advisor is not forthcoming.

This article presents an automated technique for visualizing large software architectures using multiple graphical representations, including multi-dimensional scaling, 2-D grid, and spiral layouts. We describe how our software visualization methods were applied to the Network Appliance operating system known as Data ONTAP 7G (ONTAP). We show how each method can be applied to comprehend a specific aspect of ONTAP. This approach can be used by software engineers, architects, and developers to better understand the architecture of their code.

I'm all about being optimistic. Staying positive. Looking on the bright side. But before you scroll through the next 75 images from our "crazy, amazing, fantastic" trip to Iceland, I wanted to keep it real for a second...
The first day we got there I was, well... I was a hot mess. This trip revolved around me shooting Lilja & Hannes' wedding. I had prepared so much for it. I was ready to kill it on their wedding day! The rest of the trip? Well, I didn't prepare nearly as much. I had been to Iceland before and thought, hey! We can just wing it, right?! We will just be driving on one road, how hard can it be? HAH.
Literally the FIRST thing we did was arrive to our rental car company, only to realize there had been a bit of confusion when the car was rented... (Oops). When we left there I felt like I had just opened my bank account and dumped it on their counter. Womp womp.
Stephen was a CHAMP through it. He kept our spirits up and we headed to The Blue Lagoon. After that, we headed on a little road trip to an amazing waterfall! We drove about an hour only to realize that the "waterfall" I had plugged into the GPS wasn't actually a waterfall. I had gotten a few names mixed up and, well, yeah. That sucked.
At this point in the day it was probably 1pm. The last time we had eaten was 6am at the airport. I had a session scheduled (in the middle of nowhere) for 3ish. We were pretty close to that location already and didn't have time to drive out of the way to find food. Long story short, we didn't eat or drink until 7pm that night. Yeah, I know. Stupid and totally avoidable. But it happened.
All this to say! It's so easy to look at someones life online. Traveling, living it up, always at a party, having the time of their life. But really? You have no idea. Things look so much cleaner, simpler, safer and happier online. Especially when you're looking at a life someone curated for your eyes.
But honestly, even after all that, we did have an incredible trip! Stephen showed me a TON of grace. We decided to "go with the flow," ended up seeing things we hadn't planned and laughed at ourselves a LOT. Looking back, now that my emotions aren't involved, it was a great growing experience for us. And I'm super grateful that Stephen was with me to experience one of the most incredible places on this earth!
So here it goes! The first part of our Iceland adventure for your viewing pleasure!

Scientific Principles Contact Us Blog Take Test FAQ's About Us Events Consultant Services Home
Depending on the test you take, the report will identify four, eight or twelve of your strongest instincts. Each of these instincts will be defined so that you understand how they mold your personality and behavior. Also, you will get a set of suggestions on how to manage each of these instincts to maximize their pleasure and minimize the harm you could cause yourself or others. Please below find samples of the questions and the report.
The Instinct of Tribalism
The instinct of tribalism urges people with similar tribal identities (such as language, race, religion and culture) to bond together and form tribes. Thus, this instinct fragments humans into ever-smaller ethnic groups that one might call sub-groups, such as accents within the same language, slight complexion differences within the same race, sects within the same religion and so on. Even music, being so closely linked with language, tends to separate between various groups of people. These tribal attributes divide humans into different distinct groups, and those who share the least of these tribal identities with one another repel one another, and those who share the most in common attract each other. Those tribally distanced from one another, not having much in common, often misunderstand one another, distrust and dislike each other, and the stage is set for conflict. From this result stereotypes, prejudices and discriminations. In extreme cases, it results in wars and the intentions to dominate one another, and other things that weaken the social fabric of societies. The instinct of tribalism strongly molds the behavior of people at all levels and causes needless animosity among the people of different tribes, which in extreme cases leads to ethnic cleansing and genocide. Here too, macro-behavior and micro-behavior applies.
Suggestions on How to Manage the Instinct of Tribalism
The Instinct of Greed
Instinctively humans like to accumulate, often even for no good reason. You visit your storage places and most likely you will find things that you have not used for years. Yet driven by this instinct of gain and retain, greed, we are programmed to collect and to accumulate, thus we use our valuable real estate to store junk that defies logic. The same applies for endless quest for wealth. Many people gain great fortune that can provide them with lavish life style for generations to come. Yet, driven by this instinct many cheat, steal and even kill when required to get more of it aimlessly. Because instincts emerge and function in the vacuum of intellect and reasoning this unquenchable greed becomes inexplicable through reasoning.
Erroneously most people associate greed with wealth and material gain alone, but in fact all instincts are greedy, each in its own pursuit. They want them repeatedly and in endless quantities. People want fame, fortune, power, sex, pride, glory, dominance and so on endlessly each of which stems from a particular instinct. The seductive temptation each instinct induces gives us the delusion of more of everything will produce a richer and happier life and that molds the lives of the many. Yet we find many who achieve most of such objectives, but still live miserable lives. And often driven by greed they more readily violate others to get what they want and provoke them to strike back and make their lives unpleasant. Hence, contrary to their expectation many greedy people face more problems and live unhappy lives. One of the means for true happiness seems to be contentment and respecting the rights of the others and living within one's own means in every way. Because not all humans are equally as greedy, macro and micro behavior applies here too. I will manage my greedy instincts and find my bliss.
Suggestions on How to Manage the Instinct of Greed
The Instinct of Aggression
The instinct of aggression drives an unduly, excessively hostile application of ways and means to dominate others and to impose conditions on them. Aggression, besides acting as a stand-alone instinct, is also a common component of all instincts, and surfaces when achieving their objectives is blocked off by external means it manifests itself if and when the circumstances allow. Even the tender maternal instinct can get very violent when a mother finds her child threatened. The instinct of aggression finds expression in many ways ranging from manipulation to abusive language and passive aggression, and from politicking and trickery to violate the rights of the others to violence by imposing conditions on others. Even the simple act of theft is an act of aggression in which one imposes the separation of property from its rightful owner. As a component of the human personality, it affects every human act differently and with different intensities. An accurate and in-depth study of human personality and behavior cannot be achieved without taking the implications of this human instinct into consideration. People driven by extremely potent urge of aggression can become serial killers, war mongers and even genocidal. Because aggression is an integral part of all instincts, all humans are marked by this trait to different degrees from which results macro and micro behavior.

During the stay in Nagoya, my home town, I went to Atsuta Shrine, a kind of religious and historical place in this town for a chore to do.
I took subways from my home to the destination. Since it's really hot and humid here in this country, it was comfortable both waiting for a train and in it.
Atsuta Shrine is located in Nagoya city, where is the forth biggest city in my country. Because this religion so called "Shinto" think it's important to be clean, they always have a place to wash your hands.
It is not like "A forest is there in the middle of Atsuta Shrine", but it's more like "Atsuta Shrine is there in the middle of a forest". It's surrounded by a whole bunch of trees.
"I like this atmosphere." I said myself. There were not so many people inside though, some elders and young people enjoyed walking.
The many bowed their heads in front of a gate, or when they entered it with their hats uncovered. But others just ignored it, like me. "I like the way it is." Again, I said myself.
It's all your call whether you believe a religion or not. And this religious place seemed to be so. Even when I took pictures anywhere including important buildings, guards and relative people never said anything to me. They just stood there. We have a right to believe something we want to believe, and more importantly, we also have a right not to believe what you don't want to believe. I'm not a person who believe Shinto, still I sometimes come visit here for taking a rest.
I always go to temples and shrines when I need some air because I like all of them, despite I don't believe both. The traditional way of roofs, beautiful tiny gardens, trees and leaves....everything. There are a few places where old good Japan still remains. And I really respect people who believe something strongly. They have the thing what I don't have.
Whenever visiting temples and shrines, it reminds me of a story of mine. It was the way from Nagoya to Tokyo by motorcycle, probably late 2006. Driving for a few hours made me tired, so I found a temple on a hill to take a rest and eat some food. I took my motorcycle in front of the temple, ate some rice balls made my own. I believe it was spring and warm enough. Eating a bit, looking at green colored trees, then back to eating....Nobody was there, I was alone.....Absolutely the happiest moment ever at that time.
I know Japanese have a unique mentality. They celebrate a new year by going to temples and shrines on 1st January, but they celebrate their weddings in churches. What is happening?! It looks they have no discipline.
If you visit there, you'll understand it more. Atuta Shrine is really important place for Shinto. they said that this year 2013 it became 1900 year-old. it has a long history, but once you go out and come back to a station nearby, you'll find starbucks, Kebab stall, and convenience stores. They all co-exist peacefully.
I just hope its way will last long.
Well, I'll be back soon ;)

Coaxial connectors type N with a 7mm outer contact and screw coupling are robust and precise connectors for broadcasting and measuring RF applications up to 11 GHz with very low VSWR. They come as both female and male connectors (jack and plug), in both clamp and crimp versions. For multiple application requirements, they come as both panel type and as cable connectors.
They support low loss cables, superflexible cables with foam dielectric and air-dielectric cables.
Elti connectors are suitable for all major cable manufacturers. Each type of connector suits designated cable type. The only difference is at foam cable 7/8". RFS produces this cable with larger inner diameter; therefore inner is rather different than from other suppliers. When ordering specify for which cable the connector is required.
Following tables will help you find the product you are looking for.
