As a HSE Registered Solemniser, I can legally marry couples of all faiths and none. I am an ordained Interfaith Minister and it is my privilege to craft ceremonies for those of all genders, and orientations, through creating an atmosphere that is inclusive, warm, relaxed and dignified, with a sense of occasion.
As a funeral celebrant, not only will I officiate on the day of the service, but I will guide the family through the preparation stage, and craft a service that honours and reflects the life of the departed. The content of the funeral, or memorial service, will be relevant, meaningful and specifically chosen, by the significant people, who are grieving the loss of their loved one.
Ceremonies other than marriages and funerals are also important occasions in a person's life. That is why, I will also create a personally tailored vow renewal, or baby naming ceremony to celebrate some of the other important milestones in life.
Something about me.
My name is Mary Doolin-Murphy. My journey in life has brought me from the world of academia (B.Sc., Psychology, M.Sc. Counselling), to a career in the caring profession, marriage, parenthood, and ordination as a OneSpirit Interfaith Minister.
I am at a wonderful time in my life, where I can use my experience to support individuals through spiritual counselling, and embrace the opportunities to celebrate the milestones in people's lives with them. What a privilege that is, and I welcome the pleasure of working with you.

In Cambrian fossil Lagerstätten like the Burgess Shale, exceptionally preserved arthropods constitute a large part of the taxonomic diversity, providing opportunities to study the early evolution of this phylum in detail. The anomalocaridids, large presumed pelagic predators, are particularly relevant owing to their unique combination of morphological characters and basal position in the arthropod stem lineage. Although isolated elements and fragmented specimens were first discovered over 100 years ago, subsequent findings of more complete bodies ofAnomalocaris and Peytoia, especially in the 1980s, allowed for a better understanding of these enigmatic forms. Their evolutionary significance as stem group arthropods was further clarified by the recent discovery of a third anomalocaridid taxon, Hurdia. Here, examination of hundreds ofHurdia specimens from different stratigraphical layers within the Burgess Shale and Stephen Formation, combined with statistical analyses, provides a detailed description of the taphonomy, morphology and diversity of the genus and further elucidates anomalocaridid systematics. Hurdiais distinguished from other anomalocaridids in having mouthparts with extra rows of teeth, a large frontal carapace complex and diminutive swimming flaps with prominent setal structures. The two original species, H. victoria Walcott, 1912 and H. triangulata Walcott, 1912, are confirmed based on morphometric outline analyses of the frontal carapace components combined with stratigraphical evidence; a third species, Hurdia dentata Simonetta & Delle Cave, 1975, is synonymized with H. victoria. Morphology, preservation and stratigraphical distribution suggest that H. victoria and H. triangulata share the same type of frontal appendage; a second type of appendage, previously assigned to Hurdia (Morph A), belongs to Peytoia nathorsti. These and other morphological differences between the anomalocaridids may reflect different feeding strategies. Appendages and mouthparts of Hurdia indet. sp. are also identified from the Spence Shale Member of Utah, making Hurdia and Anomalocaris the most common and globally distributed anomalocaridid taxa.
Approximately 600 to 500 million years ago, a major evolutionary radiation called the "Cambrian Explosion" gave rise to nearly all of the major animal phyla known today. This radiation is recorded by various fossil lagerstätten, such as the Burgess Shale in Canada, where soft-bodied animals are preserved in exquisite detail. Many Cambrian fossils are enigmatic forms that are morphologically dissimilar to their modern descendants, but which still provide valuable information when interpreted as stem-group taxa because they record the actual progression of evolution and give insight into the order of character acquisitions and homologies between living taxa. One such group of fossils is the anomalocaridids, large presumed predators that have had a complicated history of description. Their body has a trunk with a series of lateral lobes and associated gills, and a cephalic region with a pair of large frontal appendages, a circular mouth apparatus, stalked eyes and a cephalic carapace. Originally, two taxa were described from the Burgess Shale, Anomalocaris and Laggania, however data presented herein suggests that the diversity of the anomalocaridids was much higher. Newly collected fossil material revealed that a third Burgess Shale anomalocaridid, Hurdia, is known from whole-body specimens and study of its morphology has helped to clarify the morphology and systematics of the whole group. Hurdia is distinguished by having mouthparts with extra rows of teeth, a unique frontal appendage, and a large frontal carapace. Two species, Hurdia victoria and Hurdia triangulata were distinguished based on morphometric shape analysis of the frontal carapace. A phylogenetic analysis placed the anomalocaridids in the stem lineage to the euarthropods, and examination of Hurdia's well-preserved gills confirm the homology of this structure with the outer branches of limbs in upper stem-group arthropods. This homology supports the theory that the Cambrian biramous limb formed by the fusion of a uniramous walking limb with a lateral lobe structure bearing gill blades. In this context, new evidence is present on the closely allied taxon Opabinia, suggesting that it had lobopod walking limbs and a lateral lobe structure with attached Hurdia-like gills. The diversity of the anomalocaridids at the Burgess Shale is further increased by two additional taxa known from isolated frontal appendages. Amplectobelua stephenensis is the first occurrence of this genus outside of the Chengjiang fauna in China, but Caryosyntrips serratus is an appendage unique to the Burgess Shale. To gain a better understanding of global distribution, a possible anomalocaridid is also described from the Sirius Passet biota in North Greenland. Tamisiocaris borealis is known from a single appendage, which is similar to Anomalocaris but unsegmented, suggesting this taxon belongs to the arthropod stem-lineage, perhaps in the anomalocaridid clade. Thus, the anomalocaridids are a widely distributed and highly diverse group of large Cambrian presumed predators, which provide important information relevant to the evolution of the arthropods.

text: Eazy-E 3,346 Report post Posted May 13 So I guess Drogon went super saiyan or some poo like wtf? What was the point of all the armies and battles if Dany and one dragon could so easily just destroy everyone and everything? I could keep going on but my god did the writing really have to be this fuging bad. Nothing this season has made any logical sense. Like with each new episode everything that happened previously just gets thrown out the window. With the way things are going the final season may as well have been like 1 - 30 minute long episode and it wouldn't have made a difference. You would think Daenerys would want to kill / know Cersi is dead right? So instead of flying her dragon right to her watch tower and incinerating her she just destroys all of kings landing and never bothers to figure out if Cersi escaped or anything. fug this show I'm out.

So when a break in the flow of readings at the fair occurred late Sunday afternoon, I was grateful! I was beginning to feel "done" and the break gave me the opportunity to stretch, grab some water (after almost two dozen clients my mouth was dry!!) and muster up that final "wind" to push me through to the end of the show. It also gave my husband and I an opportunity to chat briefly and begin figuring out the ominous question, "what will we have for dinner?" As he and I are debated over food (a common argument in my household), a couple sat down in front of my booth. Saved by the bell!
Ready to go back into reading mode, I took a deep breath to prepare myself and then glanced over at the couple looking back at me. The man and the woman were giddy with excitement which was quickly transferred to me as I immediately recognized them! It is none other than the couple I (and my students) had met on our trip to Lily Dale!! (If you haven't read that story… it's a good one, click here!)
Each of us bounced out of our chairs and hugged. There was pure joy and relief in their eyes as they exclaimed, "We found YOU!"
Apparently, our meeting in Lily Dale several months ago had impacted both of them profoundly and over the past few months they had sought me. Unfortunately, knowing only my first name, when they googled … I was nowhere to be found.
They, however, did not give up hope! Hence when they heard about the psychic fair this weekend, they were hopeful they would be able to find me there. So Sunday afternoon, they made the trek to Buffalo (not a short one for them) in hopes of running into me… not only to express their gratitude and share their experiences, but they remembered these words: "Everyone has the ability to be a medium. They just have to want to, be shown how and practice!"
Those words stuck with them and they hoped to find me to discover how they could learn more. Needless to say… Their wish was granted! Apparently, upon walking into the Hearthstone Manor they immediately saw my sign on the information table. Success!! For upon opening the brochure there was my photo staring back at them.
As the three of us chatted, everyone in the room could probably sense the joy that emanated from each of us. It was wonderful to hear the confirmation they gave regarding the messages they received – not only from me, but also by my students. Each message was confirmed within two weeks (I never cease to be amazed by Spirit's ability)!!
What really touched my heart, however, was their desire to learn more about Spirit. My goal in passing a message is never just about the message and the healing it brings. I always hope the message will inspire individuals to look deeper within themselves and recognize our interconnectedness with Spirit. With these two individuals, I think I've done that. Over the past few months they have also begun to notice all the signs THEY were receiving from Spirit! These signs and our "chance" meeting created a desire within them to connect with Spirit more.
They sat down for a reading, and again were amazed. But more importantly, they left with information on my upcoming classes. I am certain I will be seeing them again!!

In Batman #41, written by Tom King and art by Mikel Janin, Posion Ivy makes a substantial power play that could have far reaching ramifications. The Bat and The Cat only have each other to rely on.
Bruce wakes in a cold sweat to find that the whole world seems to be under Poison Ivy's control. He manages to ensure that Catwoman isn't controlled and the two contemplate how they can defeat Ivy and free the Earth.
This is a really bare bones, fast-pace issue and there's not much happening in this first part. This conflict kind of springs out of nowhere and one wonders if Ivy actually has this kind of power to begin with, and, if so, why has she never used it before. As you might have guessed since she has successfully taken over everyone, besides Bruce and Selina, Ivy knows that he and Batman are one and the same. This isn't treated as some big revelation, but as a matter of fact. What's more, since she's has control the Justice League, it stands to reason that she is aware of their identities as well. It would have been interesting to see this played up more.
With the end of "DC Metal" approaching and the restructuring of the Justice League with "Justice Lost", the flagship books, such as Batman, Superman, and Green Lantern, seem to be treading water, waiting for the status quo to change. This issue's conflict feels a bit superfluous. The past few issues of Batman haven't exactly been about an overarching story, but each one has made strides to deepen the connection between Batman and Catwoman. While they are the only ones left to fight Ivy, there's no indication that this reflects on their relationship. This just feels like a buffer for the next big story. That's not to say it isn't enjoyable. The characterization and dialogue is still as strong as ever is coming from Tom King, who has perfected the banter between Bruce and Selina. Poison Ivy is legitimately intimidating, reminding why she is one of Batman's greatest foes. This issue is like a standalone episode of a TV show, has nothing to do with the larger plot, but a fun side story.
This issue sees the return of Mikel Janin and June Chung on art and Batman is all the better for it. The past issues weren't bad in the art department by any means, but Janin has an intense eye for detail and that, coupled with Chung's beautiful bold colors, makes for gorgeous pages.
It remains to be seen if this arc will have any far reaching ramifactions in the Batman mythos, but so far its offered, at least, a glimpse into what adventures with The Bat and The Cat will be like in the future.

Description for Ixora Dwarf (Peach)
The Ixora plant is loved by many because it produces clusters of star-shaped flowers all year round. Each cluster is consists of flowers that comes in red, yellow, pink,orange or peach in color.Ixora is one of the most colorful flowering and hedge plants available. Most will grow in sun or shade and have flowers in massed heads throughout the year
Ixora is a genus of flowering plants in the Rubiaceae family. It consists of tropical evergreen trees and shrubs and holds around 500 species.
Though native to the tropical and subtropical areas throughout the world, its center of diversity is in Tropical Asia.
It is commonly known as West Indian Jasmine.
The plants possess leathery leaves, ranging from 3 to 6 inches in length, and produce large clusters of tiny flowers in the summer. Members of Ixora prefer acidic soil, and are suitable choices for bonsai.
Planting and care
This is Indoor Plant.
Caring for Ixora Dwarf
- Water Ixora as needed to keep the soil evenly moist, but not muddy. Although the plant prefers moist soil, it may rot in excessively soggy soil. Water the shrub sparingly during the winter months.
Feed Ixora in early spring, using an acidic fertilizer formulated for Ixora, azalea and gardenias, which has a ratio such as 4-8-8, along with minor elements that are beneficial. Repeat in midsummer and autumn. Acidic fertilizer is especially important if the foliage takes on a yellowish cast, indicating a magnesium deficiency caused by improper soil pH.
Apply the fertilizer according to label specifications, then water deeply. In spring, remove the mulch along with the top crust of soil. Replace the removed mulch and soil with fresh mulch. Prune Ixora after blooming slows in late autumn or anytime the shrub looks untidy. Prune each shoot down to just one bud or prune the shrub as needed to create the size and shape desired.
Protect Ixora from aphids and scales. Aphids are tiny, green insects that congregate at joints of the leaves and stems or the undersides of the leaves. Scales are hard-shelled insects that give the foliage a waxy appearance. Regular application of an insecticidal soap spray or neem oil usually helps to control both pests.
Typical uses of Ixora Dwarf
Special features: ixora flowers are commonly used in Hindu worship, as well as in ayurveda and Indian folk medicine.
Ornamental use: This is Indoor plant
Medicinal use: In the above mentioned chemical composition of santan, it has been identified that the plant contains important phytochemicals that are known to have antioxidative, antibacterial, gastroprotective, hepatoprotective, antidiarrhoeal, antinociceptive, antimutagenic, antineoplastic and chemopreventive effects. This analysis suggests the validity of the plants folkloric and erthnomedicinal uses.

At first I was going to do that plastering. Then I thought I'd do the cars, but looked outside, it was wet. So then I thought I'd play that game, what was it called? Ah Until Dawn.
And yeah its a story based game, that apparently constantly changes depending on your actions.
It a gruesome horror.
With some babes thrown in to make it grewsome.
Its actually very good and hence why I've put it on here. Right at this moment free on Playstation Plus.
I get my tools and head to my parents, where I service the old girl. She is now at 160Km's
I get the kit out.
And drain the aging oil that's done 10Km
Out with the sparklers and in with some new ones.
I rotate the cars round and
Pull my brothers into place.
At 22 years old its only done 50Kms! A lovely machine.
It needs a new door seal so out with the old one.
I get rid of the 22 years of grim underneath.
And put a new one on. £50 well spent.
Here is the bonnet. Looking good.
Off with the air intake and off with the old rubber bands.
And on with some new ones.
I start her up and leave her running for 20 minutes. She seams to run great.
And then start squealing like a pig again.
I find that the bottom pivot pin is half way out and being held in by the engine mount. Thankgod for that. I look at my spare and the service book.
And after about 2 hours I manage to get it back in. The thread retook where it had chewed up.
Another test and this time it looks like its okay
Well she's ready to rip.
I collect the tools up. there is nothing the Thor cannot fix.
In my moms bathroom, I'm about to make it messy.
Ah I find she has some V05 conditioner. Great for getting oil off the hands but not stripping your skin of oil.
A shower later and I'm clean and soft.
I relax for a while have Sunday dinner and then get a notification.
I head home to swap cars. I get all the tools out and
head into the garage where I've not enough hands. So I put my keys down. I put the tools away and then leave locking the door that doesn't need a key to lock it. Oh Bugger! The house is locked too the keys are in there. Ummmm, I call my dad and wait, and while I wait I do some endless weeding.
So a while later I put the collection of prints in the living room and ponder why did I go on Ebay again?

Carole & Austin's Beach Wedding
Occidental Papagayo Resort, Costa Rica
We met Carole and Austin the day before their wedding at Occidental Papagayo Resort for a pre-wedding session on the beach at sunset. What a fun and great couple!
When we introduced ourselves, we thought Carole was upset with us given her demeanor and looks. We arrived a tad late due to the traffic caused by the construction several stretches of highway were undergoing, which we though was the cause.
As it turned out, Carole was not very fond of cameras, and much less having her picture taken, and the people with the cameras who were going to take pictures of her and her fiancé in front of other people on the beach had just arrived. What a relief!! Well, at least for us. We chatted with her and Austin, and after a while, she seemed to be excited about the session so we headed to the beach. They had a great time and we got some great photos.
In a way, it worked out for the better we met and had the photo session the day before. Brides already have enough to be nervous about on their wedding day, and nervous brides do not make for good wedding photography.
Carole and Austin wanted a small, intimate wedding on the beach with their two closest friends who traveled with them from Canada. And so it was.
We started by photographing their wedding rings and jewelry, the bouquets, the wedding dress and other mementos while Carole was at the salon with her bridesmaid having their hair, makeup, and nails done. We managed to make it to the salon to snap some pictures of them there. When they returned from the salon, Lindsay stayed in their room to take photos of Carole after putting on her wedding gown, I went to the guy's room to get some photos of Austin and his best man dressed in casual attire fit for a beach wedding.
Austin and his best man went to the ceremony location on the beach first and Lindsay went with them to take photos of the location and to get photos of Carole as she walked to the altar. I stayed behind with the ladies to take additional photos of Carole from different perspectives for variety since I'm a bit taller than Lindsay.
When I arrived at the beach with Carole and her bridesmaid, I went to the area near the altar to get shots of Austin and the best man waiting for the bride and her bridesmaid. I love those shots, capturing the emotions of the groom as he waits for his love to appear and then when he first sees her and then watches her walk to the altar.
The ceremony was very quick. Before we knew it, they were saying I do and sealing it with a kiss. Thank goodness there were two of us to get shots from various perspectives because the ceremony lasted a few minutes. After they exchanged rings, they had a sand-pouring ceremony that represented their union by combining sand of two colors into a heart-shaped glass container.
After the ceremony, we took bride and groom portraits in a few locations on the beach to Carole and Austin would have memories of the place they got married and of the beautiful beach and views at the beach in Papagayo. We had to hurry because the sun sets early and quickly in Costa Rica!
At a private bungalow-type area near the beach, Carole and Austin had their reception - a toast, their first dance, cake cutting ceremony, and then a candlelight dinner. The first dance was wonderful. The love between them was palpable. Also, the cake was just beautiful and we imagine delicious.
Meeting Carole and Austin was a memorable experience. Photographing their wedding and making sure they had marvelous photos of their wedding they will cherish for years was an honor.
We hope you enjoy the photo gallery of their wedding day photos!

Brown Thrasher (Toxostoma rufum)
About 11 inches. Breeds from the Gulf to southern Canada and west to Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana; winters in the southern half of the eastern United States.
The brown thrasher is more retiring than either the mockingbird or catbird, but, like them, is a splendid singer. Not frequently, indeed, its song is taken for that of its more famed cousin, the mockingbird. It is partial to thickets and gets much of tits food from the ground. Its search for this is usually accompanied by much scratching and scattering of leaves; whence its common name. Its call note is a sharp sound like the smacking of lips, useful in identifying this long-tailed, thicket-haunting bird, which does not relish close scrutiny. The brown thrasher is not so fond of wild fruit as the catbird and mocker, but devours a much larger percentage of animal food.

Searching For My Mother in Far-Off Countries (A Photographer's Journey Through Grief)
I left for my first real international adventure when I was six years old. My mother was doing a month-long Law program in Paris, and she wanted her young hybrid Taiwanese-American girl to be French cultured. She insisted that this was the trip when she first noticed my "keen eye for photography." I was the designated documenter of our food, museum, and street excursions. The luxurious words "travel, food, and art" encapsulate what it was like to grow up with my single mother. The two of us ate and walked through Rome, Paris, Venice, Cinque Terre, and I photographed it all before the age of seven years old.
As I grew older, the American school system limited our adventures to summer and winter breaks. My little brother was born 10 years after me, and the three of us would plan for a new country and culture every chance we could.
At first I pledged devotion and loyalty to film photography. I had gone to various camps and photography courses in Los Angeles, where the darkroom was the epicenter of magic. I adored the long hours in the dark followed by the surprising reward of an emerging image under chemical water. I wouldn't eat. I'd get cranky. But there was nothing more satisfying than a collection of darkroom prints after long days without sunlight.
Now, at 23, I can't remain indoors for longer than two hours, and I chase the sun constantly.
During my last year at UCLA, when I was about to receive my Bachelor of Fine Arts with a focus in Photography, my mother was diagnosed with Cirrhosis of the liver. Partnered with the Cirrhosis, her breast cancer had returned and spread to her bones. She passed away within four months, just before my graduation. Up until that point, I hadn't realized that everything I defined my life around (travel, adventure, photography, creativity, etc.) had been cultivated and inspired by my mother's dreams for me as an artist, a woman, and an individual.
I dealt with my grief in the best way I could. I pushed and made it through graduation, and then I left Los Angeles.
Some family wanted me to stay, there were legal and administrative issues to tend to, but there was not a single authority who could prevent me from leaving. At that point in my life there was but one strong-forced individual who could always will her way upon me, and that was my mother.
My boyfriend and I planned a three-week-long road trip that began with hikes and camps throughout California. We drove through Oregon, Washington, and up to Canada. We made our way back down into Colorado, Utah, and New Mexico. I didn't realize it at the time, but I was always searching for my mother during my travels. I searched for her in my photographs, in the Hoh Rain Forest, in the Sequoias, in the Mountains of Yosemite, and so on...
After we returned, my family was surprised to discover that I was soon planning to leave for Thailand and Nepal. There was business to take care of, clothes to sort through, rooms to pack up, but I stood my ground and ensured that no one would touch my mother's items until I finally decided to pause long enough from traveling.
After Nepal, I returned home for a short period to visit my brother, but I was soon headed for India, where I began my hunt for my mother's spirit in Ayurvedic lodges, Kali temples, Ashrams, and elsewhere. My next destination was Japan and Taiwan to reconvene with my grandfather and capture images of my heritage roots. After Asia, I wandered back through Europe before finally returning to L.A. All the while, I had my camera. I photographed digitally for the first time because lugging pounds of used and unused film around the world was not sustainable.
I went on like this for a year and two months after my mother's death.
I never did fully feel, hear, or see my mother's spirit. But I recognize that my pictures tend to capture a sense of familiarity, a feeling of home in a stranger's smile, warmth in a Japanese Zen Garden. I have transferred my search and love for my mother onto images. My entire journey around Asia and Europe was really a journey home. Photography is a return to myself, my roots, and my upbringing. It is what my mother destined for me. Therefore, the images I capture feel personal and intimately narrative. My photographs are where I meet my mother and return to a sense of "home."

I have to second the RFM69 modules over the NRF modules. I was struggling to get more than about 7 metres in open air on the NRF modules that I had, however swapping over to trying the RFM69 modules for me will get me 30m distance through 2-3 brick walls with no hassle at all. I haven't looked back

RE: Reliable communication.
RE: Using a sensor to sense the presence of copper wire.
Capacitive switch sensor like the AT42QT1011 maybe?
Something along the lines of https://www.sparkfun.com/products/14520
Only thing I'm not sure of is whether the copper wire would trigger the capacitive sensor, although if its being inserted by hand then it should have a charge from your own bodies natural charge as well possibly? Or if it is being fed a charge by something else that is touching it, then it might be enough.
RE: Review of first PCB design - Single Switch Node with Hylink AC/DC
@sundberg84 Thank you so much for the advice, I knew that it would come down to small things here and there, and it's so much easier to tinker around in eagle than try to order a board, find the errors and fix/reorder over and over, so I appreciate it very much!
Time to get back in and make some changes
Review of first PCB design - Single Switch Node with Hylink AC/DC
Good evening!
I have been doing some bits and pieces, built a few temperature sensor nodes that are happily collecting information throughout the house.
I wanted to turn my attention to designing some in-wall modules, as I have a specific light switch for my garage that the builders decided to put in a very odd spot, its on the wall right in the middle of where one of our car bonnets end up, so you have to lean across the car just to turn the lights on!
So this is the first module I have ever designed, its done in EAGLE, with a combination of imported libraries for things like the HLK-PM03, and I have modified a pro-mini 3v3 layout to remove some of the pins that I won't use in this project, to try and keep things a little easier to route.
This is also the first time I have done PCB work with 240V power, so I would appreciate any comments that you might have!
One thing to note is that currently there are just mounting holes for the Live and Neutral inputs, I haven't yet decided on the terminals for those, I'll have to pop down to Jaycar Electronics during the week and pick up some samples for measurement so that I can make a footprint for them. Also, the Serial Upload pins shown in the image are just because I didn't get around to removing them from the design, I would still have them on the end product, but I would spin them around so they run over the top of the pro-mini board.
Many thanks to everyone on the "Safe in wall ac/dc converters" thread, that has been very invaluable for research!
I know that I haven't got any voids in the board to section off the AC traces, that is my next learning experience too
Some things to consider, will be that I will have a capacitive switch sensor for the 3 pin header, I will mount that behind a blank faceplate, and have the LED lighting up the faceplate. Further versions will have more than one switch sensor and LED, this is just to get an idea of size and how well it fits behind a wallplate. I'm also using the HLK PM-03, which gives a 3v3 output, so I don't have to bother with voltage regulation for the RFM69, and the capacitive buttons are happy with a 3v3 input too, with no degradation in range/sensitivity.

RE: Flashing solar lights timing out after conversion
Thats kind of where I'm stuck, I'm not sure what to put on to help it, whether its just that the power circuit is slightly higher output voltage than it would normally get from a battery pack or whether I need to have something else added in....Creating these circuits (While somewhat simplistic) is a bit of a first for me, so still learning as I go
Flashing solar lights timing out after conversion
Hi guys... I've been hunting around and hoping that you can give me a solution to my issue! Being christmas, we do a fairly big display at our house (Its a huge thing in Australia!).
I have some solar lights that have worn out over the years, so when the solar controller gets into pretty bad shape, I just knock up a little voltage converter to drop a 5v power source down to about 3V to power the solar lights, and give them a new life, not to mention that I can also turn them all on and off by the same power switches, rather than hunting for all the individual switches out in the garden lol.
I'm a little stumped though, because I have a couple of sets of solar stars that flash, and they would cycle in a roughly 2 second on/off pulse on solar, but now that I've converted it to low voltage mains, it becomes a half second on, 3-4 second off cycle now. I'd prefer to keep them to the same cycle if I can, as now they don't really show up very well.
I have seen some references to the flash being a result of the batteries internal resistance, so I might need to add something to my circuit, but I'm not sure what.... that's where I got stuck.
The circuit is a really simple LM317 with 2 resistors to drop the incoming 5V down to 3V, which then just feeds into the input side of the original light controller, so essentially it replaces the solar panel and the battery inside the compartment.
Any tips?
RE: Another option for AC/DC power? CUI PBO-3 and PBO-5
Not so much cost as an issue, but more being able to pack things into small size requirements, such as light switch casings or junction boxes. I'm happy to use phone chargers for some sensors, but things like light switch sensors and garage or outdoor sensors I need sealed options.
Another option for AC/DC power? CUI PBO-3 and PBO-5
Got an email today from Mouser about a new series of AC/DC modules, and wasn't sure how the idea would compare to things like the HLK units that we are starting to see used.
The package details are at http://au.mouser.com/new/cui-inc/cui-pbo-3-pbo-5/
I'm still fairly new in electronics design, so some of it goes over my head, but on that page they have the diagrams with the application circuits. Does that design mean that in order to use this module, you would need the module itself, PLUS all of the fuses, varistors, caps etc in that application note? Does that then mean that this module would be analogous to just the HLK module on its own as well?
I think this is the reason I haven't yet gone down the route of sensors powered directly from AC (As much as I want to!), is that there doesn't really seem to be a pcb module that has everything included.
RE: RFM69 range issues
@manutremo said in RFM69 range issues:
Hi @executivul ,
You mentioned in your post that the length of the antenna must be tuned to the circuit - would you mind sharing the process to do the tuning?
Down near the bottom of the page is the lengths of antenna needed for the three primary frequencies used by the RFM board.
RE: RFM69 433Mhz ISM band
Isn't that what the network ID is for though? I thought the network ID was the channel number within the band....or is it more analogous to the SSID in a WiFi type network?

Revivo Wellness Resort
There's a magical synchronicity in life, where sometimes just when you need it most an invitation lands in your inbox. Feeling on the brink of burn-out (hey adrenal fatigue...) I was looking for ways to decrease my load and unwind, when I was fortuitously invited to attend a press trip at the recently opened Revivo Wellness Resort – a new breed of wellness retreat tucked amongst the green jungle and calming spirit of Bali.
Swiftly shuttled through Denpasar airport with priority transfer and chauffeured down to Nusa Dua, I emerged blinking into the expansive, white washed estate. Effusive with grounded energy stemming from the naturally monumental design of stone and wood highlights, sweeping lawns, cascading bougainvillea and ancient teak surrounding the property.
Sitting in the art-deco poolside bar, sipping on a welcome green juice, watching the white canopies of the pool cabanas blowing in the gentle breeze, a weight lifted off my shoulders, and just like the meaning of the resort, yes I do feel like I will live again.
Unlike your typical fitness or weight-loss retreat, Revivo places great emphasis on mind-body healing, offering fully immersive retreat packages or ala carte stays, bespoke designed for the specific needs and desires of your body and mind. Placing equal emphasis on mindful movement activities, spa treatments and culinary sesnsations from the wellness kitchen, lifelong holistic health is at the very core of the Revivo experience.
The Estate
With just 16 private Balinese-style suites across 3 main villas, including two 4-suite villas available for private hire equipped with their own pool, facilities and butlers, the space is expansive and exclusive, allowing you to effectively retreat from other guests amongst the three-hectare estate. With modern, sleek features, luxurious amenities and the requisite Balinese four poster bed, each suite features a deep sunken bath overlooking your own private garden, outdoor rainfall shower and private balcony daybed, offering extensive relaxation spaces for you to recuperate within.
Anti-Ageing and Longevity Retreat
The three-day programme officially commences the week prior to the sigh-inducing arrival, with a thorough pre-arrival questionnaire required for the perusal of resident wellness consultant – Kathy Cook. Taking a thorough health and lifestyle background, a general aspect of your current state of health and needs to retreat from urban life becomes ascertained. Once on-site, an initial consultation with the equally effervescent and soothing wellness coach provides the opportunity to discuss these findings, followed by a facial skin mapping session and body composition scan. This then forms the foundation of the treatments, fitness classes, mindfulness practices and nutritional menu that will be tailored specifically for you in the days to come. You'll leave the session with a custom purposed retreat journal, where alongside daily tracking and reflective writing entries, you can find wellness recipes, mindful practices and inspiration to help transition your return and implement into your everyday life, post-retreat!
With a particular focus on anti-ageing and longevity, much of the emphasis of this three-day retreat was on lowering blood pressure, aiding digestion and enhancing sleep – all aspects of health and wellbeing that are truly beneficial at every age!
A Day At Revivo
The day begins with a gentle 7:30am wake up call from a beaming, elegantly dressed private butler, offering a trio of wake up shots. Throwing back the astringent lemon and salt cleanser, traditional Jamu mix of turmeric and coconut oil and a chaser of gut-friendly kombucha, it's the healthier way to rev up the digestive system than your traditional espresso shot for sure!
From here, it's a rotating schedule of movement and refuelling, with two mindful movement practices dotted between a nourishing menu of breakfast and lunch, before an afternoon treatment at the exceptional Remisso spa. In between all, there's plenty of time to unwind by one of the many pools – where rest assured there will be no fights over sun loungers or pool cabanas – to relax amongst the spa facilities or to have a quiet moment on your private daybed balcony. Taking an early dinner at the outside lounge, as the sun dips low over the Nusa Dua hills, it's time to take an early retreat to your private suite, where an evening mindfulness practice is placed helpfully on your bed and a soothing bath awaits.
Upon the suggestion of Cook, I refrained – where possible – to ignore the siren call of my digital devices after bedtime, opting instead for some journaling, made possible by the provided retreat journal, and quiet reflective time.
The menu at Revivo would certainly be reason in itself to visit the resort. Engaging the culinary prowess of Aliwalu, the Spanish "Vital Chef" the focus on food here is on serving ingredients as close to their natural state as possible – celebrating vibrant, organic and balanced meals. With the entirety of the menu being gluten and preservative free, focused on high-protein and low carbohydrate options, most offerings are plant-based and all delight in their high vibrational energy. Whilst each menu is tweaked based on the individual's nutritional consult, Aliwalu devised six main meal plans to align with the immersive retreat packages, effectively aiding the entire thematic purpose of each retreat – knowing nutrition is a major contributor to the energy, hormonal and digestive systems.
Specifically for anti-ageing, we nourished with grounding roots, softly cooked leafy greens, acidic fruit platters, nutrient dense broths and heart-friendly wild fish. Coffee and alcohol, whilst on the menu and certainly available, are recommended to be avoiding to fully reap the benefits of the retreat experience. I must admit, as someone who loves the ritual of coffee, this was a challenge to take on, and whilst I did experience a few detoxing headaches, it was an excellent kick-start to reduce my daily caffeine intake – which I'm managing to keep up upon my return to routine.
A true lover of all kinds of bodywork, I must admit, I was most excited about experiencing the gold class standard treatments from the Remissio Spa, where within the 5 double bed treatment rooms, each featuring their own outdoor bath, a menu of treatments designed to revitalise the body and spirit are undertaken. Attended to by exceptionally skilled and qualified staff (one technican was even a clinical midwife, a reassuring fact for all mothers-to-be) the body is thoroughly pampered, allowing the physical tensions and trauma held in the body to release, while offering ample opportunity for the mind to relax. With a selection of treatments recommended within your retreat package, I was treated to a rejuvenating facial, revitalising body massage and coffee scrub and wrap, effectively ensuring the body was cared for, head to toe.
The spa additionally boasts recovery facilities which enhance your total wellbeing. With a hydro-powered Vichy shower, tension releasing and sensory deprivation salt-water floating pool, detoxing infrared sauna, longevity boosting hot/cold plunge pools, and relaxing Jacuzzi, there was an open invitiation to give yourself all the self-care possible whilst on-site!
Engaging the philosophy of mindful movement practices, Revivo is home to numerous multi-functional fitness spaces, including yoga and meditation studios, a Pilates studio, fully-equipped gym, outdoor aerial yoga space and sweeping lawn for outdoor group class, the menu of fitness pursuits is seemingly limitless. From ancient healing practices, to sweat-inducing, heart-rate lifting boxing sessions, restorative Yoga, strengthening Pilates or a highly entertaining aqua-mat class (where you'll work out your core just as much from laughing at yourself as you will from challenging your balance!), there's a style, and type of workout suitable for every taste.
Each day of the programme includes 2-3 mindful movement classes – varying in discipline most appropriate to the retreat you are on – however the wonderful staff are adept at assisting in changing to suit your preferences where possible. In these early stages, the facilities and intentions of the movement offering outshone the level of instruction and engagement from the fitness team. In comparison to the exceptional quality of the kitchen and spa the movement category did fall slightly short, however I am convinced the Revivo team is on a mission to enhance this category swiftly, ensuring their fitness offering is on par with the exceptional standard of the rest of the resort.
Three Day Reset
After just three days, I left Revivo feeling like an entirely new person. My digestion was the best it's been in years, there was no more evening bloated belly, my energy was uplifted, stress had escaped and my anxiety was at bay. Again, the physical effects of just how astutely slowing down beneficially impacts my body in a short window of time, made me realise it is something I need to implement as a lifelong holistic health shift, even when life at home gets busy! Additionally, I've been inspired to continue exploring plant-based nutrition as the optimal way to nourishing fuel my body.
For the discerning traveller looking for a luxurious escape to revitalise mind, body and spirit, I wholeheartedly recommend the impeccable experience at Revivo Wellness Resorts.
Revivo Wellness Resort offers luxurious, tailor-made retreat experiences amidst the breezy hills of Nusa Dua, Bali. Translating to "I'll live again", the estate focuses on nourishing mind, body and spirit through healing food, mindful movement practices and an exceptional spa. Bali is the first location for Revivo Wellness Resorts, it will soon be followed by the Revivo Wellness Cruise, Komodo Islands and Revivo Chataeu de Fiac, France.
This retreat was a gifted media trip for other freelance writing commitments – however all views are my own.

Faiz-e-Aam trust is working on a number of projects for the benefit and welfare of the underprivileged. These include educational as well as social welfare programs. Please take some time and have a look at our following projects.
We have initiated skill development programs for ladies from slum areas and the transgender community. We teach them skills such as sewing, cutting, cooking, etc. so they can become self sufficient and contributing members of the society.
We frequently establish medical camps around the poor community to provide them free medical checkups and give them medicine or treatment where necessary. The patients are also given talks on the importance of cleanliness and healthy lifestyle.
We often prepare food for hundreds of people. Then we select slum areas and distribute the food or find deserving people and bring them to a dastarkhwan to serve them food. This is also a good opportunity to teach them manners and give them dawah.
We build vocational centers for boys and girls where they are taught tailoring, electric work, computer skills, and more. These centers aim to develop bread-earning capabilities in young children. This has now evolved into a charity school by the grace of Allah.
We are constantly updating our facebook page with recent activity and projects. Some of our notable projects have their own photo albums that are worth having a look at. Here are some of the highlights. Link to the facebook page is at the bottom.

Week #31: Mommy Break #31 of 52: Searching for a Great Find...
Mommy Break #31 was kicked off with my first drop off party experience. It was the Sunday of Halloween week and a gracious 1st grade parent offered to host 25 first graders for a Halloween. (Real generous wasnt she?) At the bottom of the invitation in small print was the offer to drop kids off. "Uhhhh free babysitter to go on my mommy break… OF COURSE I am going to drop her off." In a brief moment of mommy empathy, I was preparing to put on my coat and leave when the host mom seemed surprised that I was going to take her up on her offer since I was so helpful at the last party. "Sorry dear, I am going to leave but I will be back to help with closing it out". Flattery does get you everywhere… but not in the case of getting a break from my child. So after saying my goodbyes and connecting with a fellow mompreneur, I did a fast trot out of there to maximize my 90 minutes away. Luckily there was an easy mommy break within 3 miles of the party. The Chicago Antique Market at Randolph Street Market. Although vintage is not in my style profile... I thought it would be fun experience to peruse the finds of over 200 vendors.
SIDEBAR: Do you have that girlfriend who is so stylish she can make anything look good? Vintage… contemporary… just a natural style maven? I have a couple of those girlfriends, not my strong suit.
Maybe I would luck out on a cool find! I extended the invite to another mom earlier in the day (but she didn't answer the phone). No worries, I was pretty committed to making the mommy break happen with or without a companion. Upon arriving at the event, there were a ton of fabulous finds… the problem… I didn't go in with any clear list in my head of things I need to keep my eye open for. Could I use a vintage leather jacket… yes… Do I need one… no. Could I use a new set of wine glasses… yes… Do I need them or have space for them… no? Could I use some accent furniture pieces to decorate my house… yes… would my husband be open to leaving his Sunday football couch to come pick them up… no. So instead of overindulging in impulse purchases I just walked the aisles, enjoyed the atmosphere and a complimentary cocktail. There were several beautiful items for sales … it truly made me believe in the saying someone else's … is someone else's treasure. They will be having a holiday market in mid November! it is definitely worth checking out!

Craving hot, buttery cinnamon rolls? A short one-day trip {yes, we are hilarious} to Cinnabon in Whitefield's Forum Neighbourhood Mall is in order then.
Just Roll With It
While we have nothing against getting a soft doughnut or a chocolatey eclair, our heart and tummy yearn for the sticky goodness of a cinnamon roll. And imagine our happy surprise when we happened to find one in Forum Neighbourhood Mall. Gooey, cinnamony, and layers to dig in to, the American brand's cinnamon rolls are everything that snack goals are. They have two cinnamon rolls to start off with — the Classic and the Caramel Pecabon. While the latter is more indulgent, we prefer and recommend the Classic. Pair it with the in-house coffee such as a cappuccino or an iced mocha and you are good to go.
Take Some Cinnamon Home
MiniBons and BonBites are what you could take home or to the office when you've people who are eagerly waiting to devour some baked goodness. The MiniBons are your miniature cinnamon rolls, while the BonBites are bite-sized yummers that you could pop in three or 300 at a time, the numbers depending purely on how much you are craving for cinnamon rolls.
So, We Are Thinking...
Whitefield is far, no doubt about that. But then if you're that side of the town, then don't miss out on this. Or you could go to Malleswaram. They have one at Mantri Mall.

Description for Mini Classic Mini 1974
1974 Mini Cooper VIN XL2SIN-124421A
I bought this car in 2006 as a non-running (no compression on number 3 cylinder) but complete car.
After I got the car home and did a little troubleshooting I found the #3 piston had a hole in it's top. The odometer showed about 92500 KM when I got it. I pulled the engine for a complete overhaul. It was reassembled using new pistons, valves, springs, timing chain, camshaft, lifters, bearings and seals. The crank was turned .010 under. The cam is a street performance with a slight increase in lift and duration. The SU HIF 44 carb, starter, alternator, and distributor were overhauled. The water pump, fuel pump, clutch, pressure plate, and throw out bearing were replaced with new units. I added a K & N air filter, stainless tubular headers, and a free-flow stainless exhaust. This gave a small boost in performance while keeping decent fuel mileage and a smooth idle.
The steering and suspension were freshened and the rubber cones were replaced with Mini Mania coil springs front and rear. This improved ride and handling greatly. The interior needed little except cleaning. It is all original, the seats are covered in cloth "racing crayons" fabric. Somewhere in its past, a $1000.00 Burl Walnut dash and door wood kit was added. It has a few cracks, please see photos. This car came from the factory with 3 point belts in the front and back seats.
The DPO added a high end (at the time) stereo system that sounds great today. There is a dash mounted Alpine CDM 7874 Compact Disk Receiver. 2 Canton 6" coaxial speakers and 2 2" Canton tweeters were installed in the doors. 2 6" Profile SF520 coaxial speakers were added to the rear package shelf and 2 Alpine 8" subwoofers were installed under the rear seat after that area was "boxed". A trunk mounted Soundstream MC 245 240 watt amp with 2 ADS crossovers round out the install.
When I got this car I intended to do all the rust repair and replacement as required to bring it back to first class, but when I finished the mechanical work it proved to be too much fun to drive that I decided to put off the body work. Replacement of the driver's door and all sheet metal forward of the firewall would take care of most of the rust. The floor (tub) is solid and both A and B pillars are sound, the doors close well with that "MINI" sound.
This car has front disc brakes and rear drums and is fitted with factory 4.5 X 12" Minilite wheels, the spare is a Minilite as well. All 4 tires are old and would need replacement, they do hold air, but I would not trust them for a long trip. The windshield has a crack and all other glass is original and undamaged. The wiring harness is original and unmolested. The instruments and switchgear are original. A 3 power port pod has been added to the lower edge of the dash just left of the steering column.
This car has a lot of rust. Please see the pictures. Even with the rust, it is structurally sound and could be enjoyed as is, or it could have the rust repaired to be a first class car. The L/H axle shaft output seal drips a little oil.
The following maintenance was done in the past 3 months: R/R brake slave cylinder was replaced, the brakes were blead and the fluid changed. Carb was overhauled and the float was replaced.

I really enjoy working with Photoshop Plug-In's. They can be very helpful throughout your workflow and a real time saver for specific tasks. I also enjoy the creative aspect of many of them. Topaz in particular has some unique plug-ins like Impression and Glow. Whenever I use a plug-in, I make sure that I use it as a layer in Photoshop. Doing so greatly increases my flexibility to alter the look and feel of that plug-in once I bring it back into Photoshop.
While playing around with some photos for a project recently, I decided to combine a textured photo with a Topaz plug-in for something a little different. I worked on this image of lilies several years ago. I applied a texture for a more artistic feel to the image.
I took this image with the texture already applied and brought it into Topaz Impression.
I chose Liquid Lines III for the painterly effect while still retaining the overall feel of the original image. I wanted it to look different...but not "too" different. I then switched the blending mode within Impression to Multiply to darken it. This, in the plan in my head anyway, would help separate the textured image from the Impression image when I layer one on top of the other in Photoshop.
I changed the size of the textured photo by 25% and then placed it on top of the photo that I made in Impression and added a drop shadow. Here is the layers palate.
This is the final result. The more painterly image became a new background matte which acts as an accent to the original image. I like the look...I may do it again! Don't be afraid to mix it up when working with layers and plug-ins...you never know what you may create!

Across Burleigh and Emmons county alone, there are 168 miles of trail to mark, maintain and ride throughout the season.
"The trails are set up to give people a safe place to ride, so if they want to avoid the hazards, then they're more comfortable on the trail then," says Todd Thronson, a state trail inspector with Snowmobile North Dakota.
Thronson says sticking to the trail will help riders stay safe and avoid hazards like approaches, trees and culverts.
Going off the beaten track can increase your risk of damaging not only the equipment and land, but maybe even yourself.
"We need a safe place to ride as well as a place where we are not riding on private property," says Bob Gregoire, Secretary of the Rough Riders Snowmobile Association.
A team from the Rough Riders maintains the trails around Burleigh County and keep them safe for riders.
But more than sticking to the trails, Snowmobile North Dakota says snowmobilers should ride smart in order to stay safe. They suggest riders check their gear, have a survival kit and appropriate clothing, never snowmobile alone and tell someone who, where and when you are going.
Haley Boeder has been riding snowmobiles for two years.
"I like to go slow and enjoy the ride," she says.
Her and her dad Duane are members of the Rough Riders Snowmobile Association and have made riding safe a family priority.
"Actually all three of my kids have went through the snowmobile safety course and have all been certified," Duane Boeder says.
Because starting with a foundation of safety, may ensure many years of trailblazing ahead.
To ride the trails there is a $40 fee.
Children twelve and older are required to have a safety certificate to ride. The Parks and Recreation department is holding a snowmobile safety certification class on December 13th at the Burleigh County 4-H building.

FOUR FLIGHTS Arrived In The US Within 36 Hours With Sick Passengers Who Visited The Same Location..
It's often been said that life will almost always imitate art at some point and it appears that recent events have held this promise to be true yet again.
In the course of my life, I have flown countless times. About one third of the time that I fly, at some point within a day or two after I start feeling sick. Sometimes it happens for a day but sometimes it would evolve into some full blown bedridden type stuff.
This happens because there are so many people either on airplanes or around airports itself. Which unfortunately makes airports ideal places that those who would wish us harm to carry out their plans.
Recently, there has been an early forecast of the full season or maybe something even worse.
There have been at least two incidents where passengers with heavy coughs, carrying the flew got on planes from the religious pilgrimage Hajj in Saudi Arabia.
NEW PASSENGERS ILLNESSES: The CDC was waiting at the Philadelphia airport when two separate flights arrived from overseas with passengers complaining of flu-like symptons – just a day after a flight from Dubai was quarantined at JFK airport in New York. @EvaPilgrim reports. pic.twitter.com/PM2JoHZTMt
— World News Tonight (@ABCWorldNews) September 7, 2018
Hajj had held a Muslim religious pilgrimage filled with thousands of people crammed into a small area. Honestly, it's no wonder this many people in one place became a catalyst for spreading the illness.
More information will be available as soon as the Center for Disease Control and Prevention investigates further into the illness.
It is not completely clear whether or not the passengers were carrying the flu. At least 10 passengers were removed from the plane as it landed in the New York's JFK even though a hundred people got sick onboard.
The double-decker plane was traveling from Dubai to New York City and landed in the Queens airport. Over 100 passengers had felt ill but only 10 were reported to officials.
Reported by 100percentfedup: SPUTNIK – A passenger plane had been quarantined in an airport in Perpignan, France, on suspicion of a cholera infection on board.
The plane with 141 people onboard, including five children, had been blocked since 1:50 p.m. local time after it had arrived from Algeria.
According to preliminary data, upon arrival, a crew member signaled that one of the passengers, reportedly a child, was ill. The authorities immediately took the child and his mother into the airport for treatment. The other passengers were asked to disinfect their hands.
Cholera is a highly contagious infection that can be transferred by contactwith contaminated food or water.
From CBS Philly Several plane passengers who landed at Philadelphia International Airport on Thursday from international flights were reported to have flu-like symptoms, an airport spokesperson confirmed to Newsweek. Twelve passengers, on American Airlines flights from Paris and Munich, Germany, were experiencing symptoms.

I was so disappointed when I tried this T-shirt on. It's the most beautiful colour and the design looks lovely. However, it is very unflattering specially around the hips. There is too much material which just does not sit right. I usually love UA T-shirts, but this is one I really don't like. I will be going back to the other styles that I've purchased before.
VERY BOXY and the flaps in the back do not lay well...Shirt looks sloppy on!

This is more or less what it looked like for the opening on Friday Feb. 1 (I cleaned up a little afterward). It was fun! The opening, I mean, not the cleanup; that was just okay. Soon I'll be installing the Mogielnicki Honorary Sink (thanks Peter and Nancy!) and some sort of floor covering so I can make more messes. Also on the to-do list is more and better lighting, some weatherstripping work around the door, re-assembling and populating the big flat file (you can see the drawers propped up against the back wall, with some talking portraits inside... cheaper and quicker than framing!), and generally getting down to work.
I have a Wish List for things that I don't NEED, but would make the place nicer:
-a used iPod or other basic music-producing device
-plants! I'll try not to kill them, promise
-a comfortable chair or two in case someone wants to sit on something that isn't a metal stool, a flat file, or the floor
-visitors! I'd love to see you there: Monday-Friday 3-6, for now.

When I email people, they think I am a man because my field of work is definitely overwhelmed by men, so when they see me, they see a little chunk of a woman. Breaking stereotypes is important in my work as a researcher."
Dyhia is a 32 year old Algerian-Canadian. She is the program manager at Ecotrust Canada and an advisor for Africa at the University of British Columbia's, Sea Around Us. When she isn't working hard she likes to go on hikes and her favourite place to find herself is in her bed. Being a working Mom it's the only time she finds time for herself. Dyhia's favourite quality about herself is that she is bold and outgoing. When I asked Dyhia if she feels visibly Muslim she responded, "Yes my hijab says it very well and people often tell me, "welcome", thinking I am a Syrian refugee or something." I also asked her how she would like to be perceived and she commented, "I like breaking stereotypes so it is not important for me how and what people think about me. Whatever they think, I will exploit it in my favour. "

Gudrun Wagner, wife of the Bayreuth Opera Festival�s director and a key figure in the family battle over control of the arts institution that was founded by composer Richard Wagner, died yesterday. She was 63.
She died unexpectedly yesterday morning at a Bayreuth hospital. No cause of death was given, said Peter Emmerich, a spokesman for the festival.
�It is with deep emotion and with silent grief that I must convey that this morning my loving wife and close co-worker Gudrun Wagner died fully unexpectedly,� Wolfgang Wagner said in a statement.
Her death comes amid the feud over who will succeed Wagner � a grandson of the composer � as festival director.
Wagner, 88, had long insisted that his second wife and partner in directing and staging the annual festival was the only person capable of taking over.
�As the most important assistant and supporter of her husband, she shaped the luster and the worldwide significance of the Wagner festival in Bayreuth,� said Guenther Beckstein, state governor of Bavaria. �Her death is a deep loss to Bavaria, Bayreuth and the global festival community.�
But recently, Wagner has indicated that he would be prepared to step aside in favor of the couple�s 29-year-old daughter, Katharina.
Wolfgang Wagner has led the festival showcasing his grandfather�s operas since 1951 � at first jointly with his brother, Wieland, and on his own since his brother�s death in 1966. He married Gudrun in 1976.
He recently has faced calls to step aside from the festival leadership, although he has a lifetime contract, amid concerns about his health and a feeling the annual event would benefit from an injection of fresh ideas.
In early November, the foundation overseeing the festival urged members of the Wagner family to come forward with ideas for the event�s future.
Gudrun Wagner had two other children from a previous marriage.
