Blade of Olympus
"A weapon forged from the Heavens and the Earth...the Blade of Olympus" - Atlas
The Blade of Olympus is a sword created by Zeus, forged of the Heavens and the Earth. It's primary use was to end the Great Titan War once and for all by banishing the Titans to Tartarus.
Kratos first uses the Blade Of Olympus in Rhodes when Zeus sends it down so that Kratos could destroy the Colossus of Rhodes. However, the Blade Of Olympus drained all of Kratos' godly powers without Kratos being able to stop it. When the Colossus Of Rhodes fell, it's hand crashes down onto Kratos, and knocking the Blade Of Olympus out of his grasp. Suddenly, Zeus appeared and picked up the blade. Kratos realized what Zeus had done, but was powerless to stop him. Later on, Kratos regains the blade and defies his fate by going back in time to kill Zeus. Kratos nearly kills Zeus however Athena interferes and Kratos accidently ends up killing her instead of Zeus.
After completing the game, players can begin a new adventure on "Bonus Play" and they will have control of the Blade of Olympus from the beginning, allowing the opportunity for increased strength and powerups with the weapon.

Read this tip to make your life smarter, better, faster and wiser. LifeTips is the place to go when you need to know about Learn Spanish Online and other Spanish topics.
One of the great advantages of private Spanish lessons is the flexibility to learn Spanish when and where you want. Spanish lessons can take place at the location you choose, on the day you choose and at the time you choose. This is particularly important for people who have little time for learning, such as business people. People who take private Spanish lessons will get personal attention from their tutor. They can decide together whether to concentrate on Spanish conversation, Spanish grammar or Spanish vocabulary in a given teaching session. Private Spanish lessons can be customized to meet the learner's needs. It is worth considering getting Spanish lessons from a native speaker of Spanish or someone who has spent considerable time in a Spanish-speaking country. This is the best way for learners to improve their Spanish conversation skills. One to one teaching is effective in promoting learning, so learners who choose this option will learn to speak Spanish faster. Some Spanish language schools offer online Spanish courses on a one-to-one basis. These courses make use of modern Internet and Web technologies to enable learners to learn Spanish online.

Are you entitled to 30 Hours FREE Childcare?
As part of the new government scheme we are pleased to announce that Little Herons are able to offer 30-hour funded places to those children aged 3-4 years, where families are eligible
What is the '30-hours Free Childcare' scheme?
All 3 and 4-year-olds in England are currently entitled to up to 15 hours a week free childcare for 38 weeks of the year (during school term-times). From September 2017 this entitlement could go up to 30 hours a week for 38 weeks of the year (term time only) for some working families. Or circa 23 hours per week if used over the whole year.
This could take your free childcare entitlement from 570 hours a year up to 1,140 hours a year.
Will I qualify for 30 hours free childcare?
Parents of three and four year olds will need to meet the following criteria in order to be eligible for 30 hours free childcare:
- They earn or expect to earn the equivalent to 16 hours at National Minimum or Living Wage over the coming three months.
- This equates to £120 a week (or c.£6,000 a year) for each parent over 25 years old or £112.80 a week their first year.
- This applies whether you are in paid employment, self-employed or on zero hours contract.
- The parent (and their partner where applicable) should be seeking the free childcare to enable them to work.
- Where one or both parents are on maternity, paternity, shared parental or adoption leave, or if they are on statutory sick leave.
- Where one parent meets the income criteria and the other is unable to work because they are disabled, have caring responsibilities or have been assessed as having limited capability to work.
- Where a parent is in a 'start-up period' (i.e. they are newly self-employed) they do not need to demonstrate that they meet the income criteria for 12 months.
- If one or both parents is a non-EEA national, the parent applying must have recourse to public funds.
This outlines the criteria communicated by the DfE please see attached.
Information about eligibility is available to parents via www.somerset.gov.uk/eye30 and parents can apply online via the main government page – www.childcarechoices.gov.uk
If successful, parents will be issued with an 11 digit code which they need to take directly to the Nursery where a short consent form needs to be completed. Once the code is checked the Nursery can accept requests for additional hours. Please ensure a request is submitted the term before the hours would be due to start.

According to the new science of happiness, our happiness has not really increased as much as it should have over the last 60 years. The message in the American Declaration of Independence ('pursue happiness'), radios, work rewards, and television advertising gives us the clue that we have to purchase our happiness or get it from someone else.
But this does not work! A study published in 2010 that analyzed the responses of 450,000 respondents gave strong evidence for the case that while high income can buy life satisfaction (i.e. the thoughts that people have about their life when they think about it), it cannot buy happiness!
Just think about it, the amount of Americans who are on Anti-depressants is at an all time high!
Just think about it, the amount of Americans who are on Anti-depressants is at an all time high!
So, our culture and our government implies that in order for us to 'achieve' happiness, it has to come from a person, place, thing, or circumstance which we usually have to dish out the dollar for….
Back to the economy… and YOUR happiness… The cover story of The Economist in January 2007 highlighted how we can measure happiness at a gross national level…
The good news is that even though our government, culture, and health organizations are leading us in the wrong direction to find happiness… they do mean well.
So now we know their intentions are good, although their methods are bad… and you can no longer afford their methods anyways…
Take your happiness into your own hands. Take leadership of your own happiness and insert happiness activities into your daily life. These activities have been scientifically proven to make you feel happier!
Step One – MAKE THE HAPPINESS DECISION
Before we do anything, we have to decide to do it… it takes a decision. Fortunately, Lionel Ketchian, Founder of The Happiness Club made a certificate called "The happiness decision" and you can print it out and hang it on your wall to commemorate the first day of your own happy life! http://happinessclub.com/pages/decision.html
Step Two – START A GRATITUDE PRACTICE
Start a gratitude walk where everyday you recount the things you are grateful for in your life and never ever repeating, because there is always something new to be grateful for.
Step Three – START A KINDNESS PRACTICE
Practice five acts of kindness a day. It can be as simple as telling someone they have a nice smile. The science of happiness has proven that if we practice five acts of kindness our happiness will increase…
The good news? You don't have to depend on any person, place, thing, or circumstance that you can not afford anymore in order to achieve happiness. You can do certain activities that will make you feel happier!

We talked to geneticist first. Dr.U officially diagnosed Elliott as a beautiful baby and said he exhibits no physical indications of genetic anomaly. However, standard protocol with CHD babies is to run a micro- array analysis. Baylor has the best genetics lab in the country, possibly the world. Their micro-array analysis is the most advanced in the world. If there are genetic additions or deletions, they will identify them. There is no cause for concern other than this is standard protocol with CHD babies. The test was sent a few days ago and we should have results in a few weeks. Dermatology came in next and agreed that spot on head is birth trauma. Thank you! We spoke with another Cardiologist who reiterated the same info as other cards. Also, despite amazing leaps in feeding volumes, they decided to pull back to 6-8 cc per 3 hours and reintroduce TPN (IV nutrition). The reason for this is related to his "blue blood" heart condition. They are concerned that he may have less than ideal circulation of red blood in his intestines. If they are taxed too much, it can result in a more serious complication. So we are happy about this change. Thanks to my hard work, he has been enjoying breast milk exclusively today! Renal also consulted today. In concordance with his Nana and Grandma Sharon's assessment, his bilirubin levels were a tad high (14 is reference and they were 16). So, he is now sunbathing comfortably.
He was placed under the lights at 4pm and by 7pm his color was much better! They drew labs just before we left tonight, so I will call shortly for the results.
Apologies for leaving you all hanging. Mark and I are so touched by Elliott's strong following, and grateful for all of you thoughts and prayers. I will likely start a routine of updating the blog at night, unless I have a few minutes in the day to do a quick short post.
Love to you all!

Fall 2014 ReNew Devotional
Welcome to our ReNew devotional guide. I hope your heart, my heart, all our hearts, long for spiritual renewal. I have been a Christian for over 40 years, and sometimes my focus, energy, and joy can cool and fade. There is a tendency for all of us to fall into predictable routines that lack passion. Scripture study can become informational but not transformational, prayer can be a joyless duty, loving others can feel exhausting, and worship can be unengaging. Must we settle for this kind of a stagnant and powerless spiritual existence? God graciously offers to bring renewal to our hearts as we wait (trust, rely, depend) upon him.
28Have you not known? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable. 29He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength. 30Even youths shall faint and be weary, and young men shall fall exhausted; 31but they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint . (Isaiah 40:28-31, underlining mine)
To "renew" is to restore, replenish, or revive. Of course, we cannot renew our own hearts through our noble intentions or disciplined efforts. Renewal is a work of the Holy Spirit (Titus 3:5). God our Father, in his great love for us, has not only declared his end to renew all things, but he has provided the necessary means to that end. Specifically, the word of God, the Spirit of God, and the people of God are his divinely appointed means to bring renewal to our hearts, our relationships, our churches, and our world.
How to Use This Devotional
This devotional contains 12 lessons designed for your use over a span of 13 weeks. They generally correspond with 12 Sunday morning sermons being preached at Central Presbyterian Church this fall. Although you can use this devotional apart from hearing these sermons, the devotional will be enhanced if you do so (they are accessible through our website, www.centralpres.com).
Each devotional contains:
- one or more Scripture readings,
- a commentary on those Scriptures,
- study questions and action steps (for individuals, families, small groups), and
- a suggested prayer.
May the Lord be pleased to bring gospel renewal to our hearts as we grow together in his word, empowered by his Spirit, in fellowship with his people, and engaging our world. Pastor Bob

Graduate from ORU: 2014
Hometown: Huntsville, Alabama
Degree: Elementary Education - English Language Learners
What do you love about ORU?
There is so much to love about ORU! I think my favorite thing about ORU is the dorm life. I lived in Towers for two years and in Claudius for two years. Some of the best friendships I have made at ORU were from the girls that lived on my floor. I have so many fun memories that I will never forget from living at ORU. I also really love ORU as a community. The students are so accepting, the faculty is so caring, and the campus is so lively. I love being at a university where I can grow in my academic ability and grow in my relationship with God.
What activities were you involved in at ORU?
I was involved in several activities here at ORU. One of the programs I was most involved with was the Chaplain Program. Being a Chaplain in Claudius was one of the things I enjoyed most about being at ORU. Throughout my time in the program I was able to encourage and be encouraged by other students to pursue the Lord and grow in my relationship with Him. I was also involved in ORU Prayer Movement, Worship Choir, and Missions and Outreach. I loved every program I was involved in and made some really great connections with students from all over the world!
What's your favorite thing to do in Tulsa?
Tulsa is such a fun city! My favorite thing to do is go downtown with my friends and eat at one of our favorite restaurants. I also love spending time outside hanging out in the Prayer Gardens on campus or at some of the parks around town. I am always up for a picnic, flying kites, or riding bikes around town.

After 16 presentations at 10 different venues and several home-stays we're able to compile a list of the "Top 10" questions that people ask as we prepare to serve in Uganda. Thanks for your interest!
- Have either of you ever been to Africa before? Yes, once-and very recently, in fact! We have served in mission contexts before and traveled extensively, but neither of us had made it to Africa until this past Easter when we did a quick trip to meet Church leaders and take care of logistical matters to prepare for our arrival.
- When will you arrive in Uganda? We hope to be there by October 2008. We wish it could be sooner, but between now and then we are doing the very important work of traveling the USA (mostly the Midwest) to tell the exciting story of what God is doing in Uganda and seeking individuals and congregations to partner with us in that task. Our final departure date is quite dependent upon our funding and sponsorship status.
- How long will you stay there? Indefinitely. It is a regular "call" as we understand it in the Lutheran Church. There is provision to return briefly every-other-year. (Specifically, the terms are 2 years in length with 22 months on the field and then 2 months back in the States for home assignment. So if we arrive on the field by October 2008 then we'll be back in the States for a brief visit mid-summer 2010.)
- Where will you live? We will live in the capital city, Kampala. It's an ideal location for our home base. We'll travel from there to out-lying areas.
- What will your house be like? The mission board provides (rents) a house for us. We'll get to help pick it out since we are the first full-time workers on this field. It will likely be brick or cinderblock construction, plaster walls, ceramic tiled floors throughout, 2-4 bedrooms, indoor plumbing, screens on the windows, and a red-tiled roof so often seen in tropical climates. Kampala is a city built on rolling hills and our house will likely be up on the side of a hill and not in the valley so our yard will likely not be too level. Security is similar to many places in the developing world: bars on the windows and a wall around the property (often with concertina wire on top). We'll hire a gardener by day and a night watchman by night. The mission board also provides us with a refrigerator, stove, and water filter. We are responsible for furnishings and will do that to our taste.
- What will you do? We will work very closely with our national church partner, the Lutheran Church Mission Uganda (LCMU). They've asked us to assist them as they train their leaders for ministry. It will be primarily a ministry of teaching, equipping, capacity building, and mutual encouragement!
- Will you have a car? Yes. Because some of our teaching and training sites are in remote regions, we'll need a Toyota Landcruiser or equivalent. Vehicles are quite expensive there. We could easily pay $20,000 for a well used 4×4.
- What will the girls do for school? Michelle would like to try homeschooling. If they are homeschooled it will be much easier for all of them to accompany me (Jake) on my travels upcountry for teaching and training. If homeschooling doesn't work out, we can try local Ugandan schools or local International schools.
- What can you buy there and how much do things cost? It varies. Things like fitted sheets, good-quality pots and pans, and good-quality tools are difficult to come by. Blenders and toasters are easy to get but Uganda is land-locked so manufactured goods generally arrive overland thru Kenya and that's reflected in the prices. All of our furniture will be locally made, very sturdy, and a great value for the price. And tropical fruits like mangos, papayas, and avocadoes will be fresh, locally grown, huge, and dirt cheap compared to supermarket prices in the USA. We won't ship any personal items over because you can purchase so many household items in-country. We'll only bring with us what we pack in our bags.
- What's the weather like? Uganda has it all! East African plains, lush tropical jungles, mountains, lakes, etc. Kampala is on the equator but almost 4,000 feet above sea level so it is about 65F at night and 75F to 85F and humid during the day, year round. It has 2 rainy seasons: one in March-April-May and a shorter one around November.

The other day, I decided to update my network interface card (NIC) drivers. I have Realtek NIC's that are integrated into my motherboard (Abit IP-35 Pro) and they use Realtek's RTL8110SC(L) drivers. Well, that update cost me half the damn day because they thoroughly messed up my network cards. I'd keep randomly getting notices saying the "network cable is unplugged" even though it was. Eventually the network card would shut down completely and I would lose Internet access.
Clearing Recent Documents on Windows XP
You know what I've always found very annoying on Windows XP? The simple task of clearing recent documents. Here is one very simple example of how the user experience could be immensely improved with little effort. As many of you know, on the Start Menu in Windows XP, there's a "Recent Documents" pullout menu that lists recent docs and images that you've opened. Well, it takes several clicks to clear this menu, which is unnecessarily complicated.

Match Reports
Bridgwater Town 1 - 2 Shepton Mallet
Premier Division
Tuesday 22nd August 2017Two goals right at the end of a superb match, one a controversial penalty, had both sets of supporters gnawing fingernails on Tuesday night with Shepton Mallet substitute Elliott Nicholson crashing home the winner from two yards out, four minutes into injury time writes Kerry Miller.
In the minds of the travelling support, it was justice as they watched Bridgwater equalise through a Callum Ham penalty following a clash in the area between Shepton's joint player-manager Craig Loxton and home player-manager Dave Pearse. Referee Stuart Kane pointed to the spot after cautioning Loxton and Ham shot home via the post to seemingly rescue a point. But deep into time added on Bridgy gave away a careless free-kick in a good position and Tom Hill's dipping effort was pushed onto the bar only for Nicholson to hook home after a scramble.
It was a breathless end to a match where both teams were committed to attack on a much-improved playing surface and with both having been under relatively new management there was plenty to optimistic about. Bridgy welcomed new signing Shaun Copp, from Barnstaple Town and they were soon into gear with Copp setting up Ham whose wicked drive was tipped over the bar by the impressive young keeper Tom Easterbrook.
Shepton were also quickly into their stride and Ashley Willmott curled an effort over before Easterbrook trumped his earlier save with an even better effort from Copp's dipping volley. Shepton roared back and Tyson Pollard threw over a long cross which deceived the home defence but Willmott headed wide from a good position. The home reprieve was short lived as the goal which was long in coming, finally arrived in the 25th minute. Finding room through the middle, Joe Morgan exchanged passes with George Carey before crashing a low shot past Jake Viney from distance to give Shepton the lead.
Pearse then set up Steve Holland who brought another save out of Easterbrook around the half hour mark as the end to end play continued and the action ended when Easterbrook punched away a corner before Ham blazed over just before the break.
Bridgwater were determined to take control at the restart and Kyle Paine shot just wide but Shepton were just as eager to protect their lead and Jack Goodall ventured forward to bring a save out of Viney. Town put together another fine move through the midfield with skipper Kurt Robinson finding space but the former Ipswich and Northampton man's left foot strike was just wide past the scrambling Easterbrook. Charlie White, Pearse and Ham were all looking busy but the visiting defence, with skipper James Billing marshalling at the back, were equal to everything in front of Easterbrook.
Shepton boss Jon Burr sent on Nicholson around the hour mark but it was Bridgwater who could have levelled things when Josh White nodded a long cross into the six yard box but Pearse was just crowded out. At the other end Nicholson could have made it two as he was in space with a clear run at goal but delayed and the chance was lost but he linked with Pollard seconds later only for his shot to be saved by Viney. Bridgy introduced Syd Camper and Matt Connick to look for a way back and Camper was inches away with a left foot strike from another flowing move with five minutes left.
With Shepton Mallet looking to close out the victory, Ham's spot-kick seemingly robbed them of it before Nicholson's winner brought the curtain down on an excellent match.
Shepton duly move up to ninth in the table with two wins and two defeats while Bridgwater rue the loss but with an FA Cup trip to former Conference South side Gosport Borough on the horizon, there is plenty to look forward to.
In truth the club should have requested demotion to the Western League 12 months earlier
Bridgwater Town vice-chairman Bob Buckingham is settling into life back in the Western League following last season's disastrous Southern League campaign which saw just two wins and 23 goals and a relegation which looked inevitable from Christmas. "In truth the club should have requested demotion to the Western League 12 months earlier" said Buckingham, "and we had a small window when we could have done so but possibly pride got in the way and then it was too late as it would have cost a lot of money."
Managers came and went last season but Buckingham was delighted when local man Dave Pearse left Barnstaple after a highly successful spell, to return to Fairfax Park where he was a big favourite five years ago. "Dave Pearse and Karl Baggaley were part of a very progressive Barnstaple Town set up which went from mid table Division One to promotion and then to the championship and a place in the Southern League" added Buckingham, who is delighted that the club has been able to attract some good quality players this summer. "We believe Bridgwater Town Football Club is a good place to play without there being lots of money on offer after previous regimes down the years have attracted money chasers." The club is committed to a player pathway with the U18s in the SW Counties League on a Saturday morning and the reserves playing a good standard in the Somerset County League. "With Bridgwater College now rebranded Bridgwater and Taunton College we are looking for the best young college players to show they are keen and come on board. With Taunton Town having no youth and reserve sides we are looking to improve and our first real test is in the FA Youth Cup on Thursday September 7 when we are home to Radstock Town."
Town have local dentist Adrian Byrne in the chairman's hot seat with Buckingham as his deputy and Ian Barber is club secretary alongside treasurer Paul Welham and Debbie Gould, who was a woman of many parts last season and is now club photographer as well as helping out in many other areas.
With the club still adjusting to Western League life the bedding in process may take a while but support is drifting back and if Tuesday's match is anything to go by, the entertainment value will bring more in as the season progresses.

We have received a PayPal payment via one of our forms, however the form does not show a submission.
Is this because the payment hasn't cleared yet?
PayPal states that the payment will clear in 7 days. Does this mean that there will be a submission showing on our form in 7 days when the payment goes through?
- JotForm SupportChriistianAnswered on February 09, 2016 at 11:12 PM
Are you referring to the form Battle of Lansdown March 2016 Booking Form?
It seems like there are incomplete payments in that form.
Incomplete payments means the user changed their mind and closed the Paypal page before completing the payment. This is why they are not logged in the submissions page. For more information regarding Incomplete Payments please check this guide: How to View Incomplete Payments

No, not that form. This was done with the iNVNCBL form.
The payment has gone through as we have had an email from PayPal, however you can see there are no submissions on the form.

This is not the problem.
When a normal paypal payment goes through the data appears correctly as it should. It is related to an e-cheque payment from PayPal.
- JotForm SupportKevin_GAnswered on February 10, 2016 at 11:30 AM
I think that this could not be possible, when your submitter is redirected to the PayPal payment page, the submissions is made immediately, one of the possibilities could be that it's being taken as incomplete payments, you should check your form following the steps provided by my colleague above.
The submissions should be there as incomplete, if you do not find them in the submissions page, I just did a test in your form, as I did not complete the payment, the submissions is in the incomplete payments section.

Nine sleeps to go, but I received the greatest gift my parents ever gave me in 1972: when my family moved to a tropical Island on the other side of the world
Immigration was a popular pass-time in Scotland, and families were encouraged to up-root themselves and set up new lives in former colonies of the British Empire. Canada, South Africa and Australia were popular destinations. Contrariness made my Father pick New Zealand, so we were soon jetting towards the one place no-one else was going, or had even heard of.
Our first night in the run-down cottage which was to be our temporary home, my mother sat in the middle of the furniture-less living room and cried. It was a shock, the change and challenge of building a new life all seemed so huge and she was homesick. (In years to come, she became a fierce advocate of the kiwi lifestyle and would never entertain returning to Scotland. There was always a slight gnawing anxiety that my father might want to one day, but despite always pining for the country of his birth, he knew when he had it good).
I was mad about animals, and comfortingly, my new bedroom had cartoon African wildlife on the wallpaper. Throughout that unsettled night, trains rumbled through the rail yards across the road, on their way to even stranger places.
It was March, and the next day dawned hot. People wore shorts, sometimes bare feet. They said 'Gidday!' Tar melted on the roads. There were huge palm trees planted along the river banks – this was a tropical island paradise!
It was all in stark contrast to the Scottish town I had grown up in up till then. Much more of an urban playground, I never really got the opportunity to lift rotten branches and gape in fascination at the variety of critters wriggling and scuttling for cover – the wildlife encountered back home was usually an angry dog who sent me scuttling for cover.
I don't even remember climbing a tree in that concrete jungle, whereas here we had a whole wood (actually a very modest orchard) outside our own back door. And a tyre swing! Not in my most fevered imaginings could this ever have come true!
There were overgrown fuscia trees crowding the cottage, the already other-worldly flowers rendered completely alien in livid pinks and purples and an ancient, aromatic lemon tree which attracted all kinds of insects. I got bee stings from running across the small lawn in bare feet, and was terrified but fascinated at the same time by a tiny jumping spider, because I'd been warned about the poisonous katipo (and have still never seen one).
Initially, school was marginally more terrifying. I was stood at the front of the class while they were encouraged to guess where I came from. A barrage of exotic realms were flung at me, before I was buffeted by a lusty recital of 'A funny old bird is the kiwi bird'.
I was rubbish at team sports (and still am – the promised bodily co-ordination never arrived) and was always left over after the Captains had picked their soccer teams. But somehow being able to draw made me accepted. The first time we did some drawing in the classroom my teacher got the teacher from the next classroom, who then got the headmaster to come and watch me scribble ( animals, of course) with an HB pencil on a big sheet of newsprint paper. My name quickly got shortened to its first three letters by my classmates. I was six, and instantly adopted the lingo and, perhaps to my father's slight dismay, the accent. Every variety of the Scots accent makes a big thing of the 'r' sound, whereas Kiwi's seemed determined to make it an endangered species. Fair enough – so in Godzone I did as the Godzonans do.
In the year of our arrival, at least, Blenheim had an odd post-war timelessness about it. Women wore sun frocks, men wore hats and giant wooden butterflies adorned the outside walls of houses. Some older people called England 'home', a Mother country they'd never been to, while younger generations didn't seem to think much of 'Poms', a description I sometimes got inexplicably tagged with.
Swimming was a huge part of the kiwi lifestyle and my sister and I were quickly enrolled in swimming lessons to learn how to 'starfish'. Huge use was made of our school pool but in weekends the destination was something which sounded to my foreign ears like 'the town bars'. It took me ages to realise that the last word was actually 'baths' – a quaintly archaic term for the municipal swimming pool. Unlike Scottish Pools this one was outdoors, no cloying pall of chlorine, queasily tepid water and conditioned air or weird muffled acoustics, but swimming as nature intended - in the fresh air and sunshine. This is a passion which has stayed with me always, despite water temperature and shark documentaries. After hours in the cool blue water, my school friends and I would lie stretched out on the sun-warmed tiles by the poolside drying and browning (or reddening) at an equal rate.
Beaches were 'down the Sounds' (the Marlborough Sounds were actually north of us, but you went 'down them'. 'Up the Lake' was Lake Rotoiti, due south in the Nelson Lakes National Park
We joined another family on a holiday 'down the Sounds', in an incredibly run-down batch. I poured over my pride and joy – the A to Z of New Zealand animals and looked forward to ticking off as many as I could. I caught my first fish, an undersized 'spotty' who had to be instantly released, and cried all the way back to shore.
The sun still shone in wintertime, my Mother marveled at the way the sky could be cloudless and the sun blazing, while the temperature plummeted past zero and the grass frosted white. Mice moved into our house, another species for me to be fascinated by.
A long-gone Homestyle bakery on the other side of the railway tracks layered our chilly semi-industrial neighbourhood with the irresistible aroma of fresh bread.
Summer came again and we discovered berry fruit, not the brambles and blackberries we'd been used to, but strawberries and boysenberries. Perhaps we couldn't always afford them, because my Mother announced that she'd heard sliced tomatoes sprinkled with sugar tasted just like strawberries, and we were going to try it. When asked for my verdict I replied innocently and with a complete lack of the smart-arsed-ness which my Mother often characterised me by: "It tastes like tomatoes with sugar on them."
We finished our first year in New Zealand at 'the Lake' sharing Christmas dinner with new friends while the sun blazed outside and small boats dotted the sparkling water. We were as far as physically possible from our own extended family, and the seasonal comfort and joy was inevitably tinged with home-sickness for Mum and Dad, but my sister and I were utterly, bare-footedly, pavolva-lovingly converted.
My parents brought us from the other side of the world to find a better life, and in that one brave, scary, strange and utterly wonderful year everything changed. Anything of value I now have, or can call myself blessed to have experienced, I can trace back to that courageous decision they made, in far-away 1972.

In the morning, we prepare for the day, we plan for the work, for the prayer, for the ups and downs that we can dimly forecast. We ask for the grace to walk in the grace of God throughout the day...
And now, day is done. We have walked through the day with more or less success. And before we retire, it is a good practice to stand before the Lord and place all of it back into his hands - the good, the bad, the tears and the laughter. All of it. Without exception.
St. Francis de Sales, to who we currently look for guidance has some practical tips for this time before bed.
We thank God for having preserved us during the past day.
I would add that it is a good thing to think for a minute on one or two of the "highs" of the day - the graces, the joys, the time with those we love...
We examine how we have behaved ourselves during all the hours of the day; and in order to do so more easily, we consider where, with whom, and in what we have been employed.
This can either be chronological: hour by hour, or in other ways. We can consider the different things we have done, or the people we have spent time with and how those relationships went. We can look at it in any way that is most practical, but the entire day should be considered.
If we find that we have done any good, we thank God for it.
In considering human nature and its tendencies, every good that we do is a great gift. It is right to thank God for every good action that we do, since we could have chosen to do the opposite.
Notice, too, that St. Francis asks us to look first at the good that we have done. For one who is striving to do good and come close to the Lord, the examination of conscience is a hopeful, forward looking thing.
If, on the other hand, we have done evil in thought, word or deed, we ask pardon of his Divine Majesty, with a resolution to confess at the first opportunity and carefully to amend it.
We will talk more about Confession later. For right now, it is sufficient to note that mortal sins must be confessed and we are encouraged to confess venial sins, especially the stubborn ones. The firm purpose to amend our lives is very important. Otherwise, we tend to wander around in a fog, never making progress.
After that, we commend to the care of Divine Providence our body, our soul, the Church, our relations, our friends. We ask Our Lady, our good Angel and the Saints to watch over us and for us.
And then to sleep. In peace. For we are most dearly loved.

Throwaway Style is a weekly column dedicated to examining all aspects of the Northwest music scene. Whether it's a new artist making waves, headlines affecting local talent, or reflecting on some of the music that's been a foundation in our region; this space celebrates everything happening in the Northwest region, every Thursday on the KEXP Blog.
I can remember a few years ago I sat down with my laptop with the intention of creating a spreadsheet of local artists in Seattle I wanted to keep track of (yeah, I'm a pretty wild and crazy guy). It didn't take long before I came to an incredibly obvious yet still startling conclusion — there's a shit ton of bands in this city. That's why they pay me the big bucks, folks — for my immense musical insight. But bear with me a second. Seattle's massive arts and music scene is part of what makes our city so exciting. There's always something to discover, always a band you can be going out to watch, and also scenes that are constantly changing. If you think back to 10 years ago, there was a surge of excitement around the city's folk scene. But music here also moves fast and suddenly new waves of artists with totally different sounds come rushing in and it becomes harder and harder to keep track of the artists you've loved with the new ones you're falling in love with.
That sounds maybe pessimistic or maybe shallow, but I think it comes from a good place filled with good intentions of wanting to engage with new art. I can only speak for myself in that regard and I feel a little self-conscious putting that out there, but I like to think others go through the same thing. How do you make time for the artists you already love while still giving the attention to a new wave of emerging artists?
All this to say, I think I've taken Tomo Nakayama for granted.
When music journalists say things like "this artist is a fixture in Seattle music," there's probably no one right now who fits that title better than Nakayama. Emerging on the scene in 2007 with his chamber pop outfit Grand Hallway, he's continued to be a constant presence in the city both with the group and as a solo performer. He's supported a number of other local favorites too like Sera Cahoone, Gold Leaves, and Sunny Day Real Estate's Jeremy Enigk. You've maybe even seen him serenading travelers at the Sea-Tac airport where he regularly busks. It seems no matter where you go, you're going to run into him and his music at some point. Tomorrow he'll release his sophomore solo LP, Pieces of Sky, via his own imprint Rice Belly Music. It's an album that flips everything I thought I knew about Nakayama's music. All this time I thought we were all watching him, but really he was watching us.
Much of the album is inspired by his time at Sea-Tac, singing in the terminals but also observing the travelers coming and going. It's a wallflower opus, internalizing the feelings of people he may never know while infusing his own perspectives on who they might be while also revealing bits of who he is. Not to throw out some even more academic, insightful music journalism terms, but this album is stupid gorgeous. It's a quiet, layered work that may be some of his finest songwriting to date. The way he sings in a hushed tone, you can easily imagine Nakayama sitting off to the side by himself silently taking note of the room around him. His finger picked acoustic guitar under swaths of synthesizer hums, swooning string arrangements, and even the occasional pulse of a drum machine merge together seamlessly. It's the sound of comfort and serenity. When he sings on the title track, "Lately seems like the world's on fire, lately feels like the truth don't matter," the words hit harder maybe than they ever have before. And not just the words themselves, but how Nakayama sings them. He's a searcher, taking in the world and trying to come up with answers. When I do that, I usually just end up ranting to my dog and binge watching some shitty cooking show. When Nakayama seeks out answers, he orchestrates a beautiful masterwork.
Listening to Pieces of Sky feels like the right words you need to hear from an old friend. With Nakayama's presence so felt in this city, he fills that role aptly of someone you can always count on when things look bad. It's an album that calms the soul. It makes me thankful for Nakayama and the excellent work he's consistently put out over the last decade. It makes me want to talk to friends I haven't reached out to in a long time and revisit records collecting dust on my shelf. It may be hard to keep track of all the amazing talent that this city produces, but sometimes it's good for the heart to slow down and take in a work by someone you've long appreciated. Pieces of Sky is one of those works.

Upstream Music Fest Announces 2018 Dates
Back in May, Pioneer Square played host to the inaugural Upstream Music Fest + Summit. It was three days packed with killer Northwest music and national acts as well as amazing keynotes from local legends and industry professionals. If you made it out to the fest, you know just how exciting it was — I think I still have whiplash from all the bands I saw. Now the fest is marking its return to Pioneer Square on June 1-3, 2018. Details will be trickling out soon, but stay tuned for artist submissions opening in November as well as information on tickets. In the meantime, revisit this year's highlights on the KEXP Blog here and below.
Seattle Producer Mario Casalini Shares "Cornered," featuring DoNormaal and RVN
Producer Mario Casalini is a secret weapon in Seattle hip-hop. His prolific output of mixtape and loose tracks on Soundcloud is astounding on its own, along with the work he continues to do with local MCs DoNormaal and RVN. Now all three are uniting again on Casalini's latest single "Cornered" from his upcoming project Goldtooth Squarepants (contender for album name of the year?). The raging rhythms and impeccably orchestrated tension in the beat alone makes this one of his most exciting tracks yet, taken to the next level with DoNormaal and RVN sounding meaner than ever. Check it out below.
Darto Share New Music Video for "No Self"
Earlier in the summer, Darto released the first single "I Am" from their upcoming LP, Human Giving. The album's out tomorrow, but the band is offering one more sample from the LP in the form of a music video from the track "No Self." Much like "I Am," it's a sonic departure from their noisier previous work and still continues to be overwhelmingly excellent. Directed by the band's own Gordon De Los Santos, the video is a hypnotic venture into the dark of the woods with some truly stunning visual work by the band. If the recent finale of Twin Peaks has you missing some great PNW surrealism, this video might just fill that void. Stay tuned for an interview with the band coming up soon on this very blog!

MyIdentityDoctor.com recommends ways to live safely with a pacemaker.
Lakewood, CO -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/14/2015 -- Worldwide, 3,000,000 people live with pacemakers implanted in their chest or abdomen. Every year, another 600,000 pacemakers are installed. Pacemakers do exactly what they proclaim – they "make the pace" for people's hearts who suffer from irregular heart rhythms. Because pacemakers involve electrical pulses, many people are concerned about what they can and cannot do in their everyday lives after a pacemaker has been implanted.
A spokesperson from My Identity Doctor suggests, "If you have a pacemaker, there are some things you can do to live safely. The first is to always keep your scheduled doctor's appointments. Doctors will detect the effectiveness of the pacemaker, as well as if the batteries are running low. Also, if your pacemaker beeps, call your doctor immediately. No matter what type of procedure you're getting done, make sure every doctor, dentist and technician around you knows that you have a pacemaker. To stay safe at home, keep at least six inches away from any devise that emits electromagnetic energy. Also, although most power tools are safe, chain saws and welders are best left to someone else. And also important, always carry an ID card or wear medical alert jewelry so those around you will know your situation if something goes wrong."
Medical Alert Jewelry for Men and for Women Saves Lives
MyIdentityDoctor.com carries a large assortment of medical alert jewelry for men and women. Some of these specifically for heart patients include Heart Patient Bracelet, Hypertension Bracelet and Arrhythmia Bracelets. A pacemaker patient will benefit greatly from wearing this type of medical alert jewelry for men or for women if an issue arises and they are unable to voice their condition to medical personnel.
About My Identity Doctor
My Identity Doctor specializes in medical alert jewelry for men and women. They know that easy to read, black engraving is the most important for your safety. By wearing a medical ID tag, you are ensuring prompt, accurate medical attention.

Interesting story from MSNBC.com (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17571978/) talking about the bombing of the mosque at Samarra as the "day everything changed" in Iraq. Before that, according to the current President, things were going along well in Iraq. Then, al Qaeda-led forces blew up the mosque, and unleashed all of this sectarian not-quite-a-civil-war unpleasantness. Thus, the administration can argue, all of the violence in Iraq really is a creation of al Qaeda, and Iraq really is the central front in the Global War on Terror/Struggle Against Radical Extremism.
(By the way, anyone else notice how this administration loves to find days where "everything changed?" 9/11 changed everything, the bombing of the mosque in Samarra changed everything. Could it be because if something "changes everything" then it's easier to unhinge what you want to do from historical analysis and persepective, like the neocons in the current President's administration are desperate to do?)
The article discusses whether the bombing was really such a sea change, or whether it was just a reflection of what was happening already. Some argue that the sectarian violence and tensions had gotten so bad that, if it wasn't the mosque bombing, it would have been something else that started the violence we see in Iraq currently.
The current President's administration needs the perception to be, however, that things were going well, but the al Qaeda-backed bombing changed things. If that's the spin, then the surge makes some sense, as a means to undo the damage done by al Qaeda and get Iraq back on the path to freedom and democracy.
The article quotes experts on both sides, some saying that the violence we see now was brewing already and would have boiled over in some way, others saying that the mosque bombing was really a unique catalyst. (Although it is interesting that there's no one who isn't on the payroll of the U.S. government who is taking the position supporting the current President).
However, given this administration's history of spinning the facts, making false or blusterous claims, and callously trying to manipulate public opinion in an attempt to bolster support for the war, I think it gives a fascinating lens through which to consider the question raised by the article. Enjoy.
WP: War's tipping point debated
Administration says event increased violence; many Iraq experts disagree
By Thomas E. Ricks
The Washington Post
Updated: 7:49 a.m. CT March 13, 2007
Feb. 22, 2006, is the day the Bush administration says everything in Iraq changed.
Before that day, military and administration officials frequently explain, Iraq was moving in the right direction: National elections had been held, and a government was forming. But then the bombing of the golden dome shrine in Samarra derailed that positive momentum and unleashed a wave of brutal sectarian violence.
Even now, more than a year later, the president and other administration officials cite Samarra as a turning point -- "a tragic escalation of sectarian rage and reprisal," President Bush called it in a March 6 news conference. "One of the key changes in Iraq last year," said White House spokesman Tony Snow in January.
Many Iraq specialists and defense analysts contend that this narrative of the mosque bombing is misleading, yet also revealing of how U.S. strategy in Iraq has evolved. Experts say the attack did not begin a civil war but rather confirmed the ongoing deterioration and violence in Iraq -- conditions the White House and the generals had resisted recognizing. In that sense, the bombing destroyed much more than the shrine: It also demolished the positive view of progress in Iraq, leading military and administration officials to a more pessimistic perspective, and eventually to a new U.S. strategy.
'Gasoline on a fire'
Samarra was not a major turning point in the war, said James Miller, a former Pentagon policy official. "The evidence on the record makes that not credible," he said. "The mosque bombing was just gasoline on a fire that already was burning pretty well."
No one was killed in the dawn bombing, which shattered the gilded roof of one of the holiest sites in Shiite Islam, located about 65 miles north of Baghdad. But in the following days, a wave of sectarian violence swept across central Iraq, killing hundreds.
The U.S. military had planned to begin drawing down its combat force in Iraq sometime in 2006, Marine Gen. Peter Pace, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, testified before a congressional committee last month. "We did not because in February of last year, the golden mosque bombing and all the sectarian violence that ensued from that, we realized by around June that we were not going to be able to come down," he said.
Jeffrey White, a former Defense Intelligence Agency specialist in Middle Eastern security issues, agreed. "I do not think things were going well before the bombing," said White, an analyst at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. "The insurgency was not controlled. Incident levels were rising."
Since 2003, violence in Iraq has increased at a steady pace, with some slight dips each winter. The increase continued last year, reaching an average of about 5,000 acts of violence a month. By the time of the shrine bombing, about 2,287 U.S. troops had died in Iraq; since then, that number has increased by 903.
Reflection or cause of civil war?
What the official narrative does not consider, said Ahmed Hashim, a professor of strategy at the Naval War College, is that civil war was well underway before February 2006. The mosque bombing should be seen as "a reflection of that, not a cause," he said.
Asad Abu Khalil, a political scientist at California State University at Stanislaus, said it is characteristic of foreign occupiers to seize upon one episode and point to it as the moment that undercut all their good efforts. "The golden dome merely focused and intensified a conflict that was already taking place," he said. "If the bombing of the golden dome did not take place, some other bombing would have occurred."
The view that U.S. strategy was working before the bombing in Samarra leans on the assumption that the elections at the end of 2005 were a sign of progress, noted Carter Malkasian, who has served three tours in Iraq advising the Marines on counterinsurgency techniques. At the same time, he observed, the country was fracturing -- with growing support for insurgents, an increasing number of attacks on U.S. forces and deepening Sunni unhappiness with the Iraqi government. "In the end, stability was so weak that it only took the mosque bombing to break it apart," he concluded. "If the golden mosque hadn't done it, another bombing probably would have."
Even some in the military say their colleagues and commanders have misinterpreted the significance of the mosque bombing. "You have to understand the dome incident as being as much a manifestation of the weaknesses in our strategy and operational approach in Iraq than as some sort of causative tipping point," said Army Reserve Lt. Col. Christopher Holshek, a veteran of the Iraq war.
'Tipping point'
But the majority of military officers interviewed stood by the view that the shrine attack was the turning point in the war.
The impact of the bombing cannot be overestimated, said Army Lt. Col. James A. Gavrilis, an officer on the Joint Chiefs of Staff who served with Special Forces in Iraq. "The mosque bombing was a tipping point. . . . Sectarianism was a problem before, as it is now, but the bombing was a catalyst for increased sectarian violence."
Iraqi Shiite leaders have also cited the impact of the bombing. "The explosion of the holy shrine pushed the country into blind violence, in which tens of thousands of innocents were killed," said Grand Ayatollah Ali Sistani, Iraq's top Shiite cleric, in a statement last month. "No one knows but Allah when this tragedy will be over."
Before the attack, said an Army officer, "you could feel the changes and sense we were moving in the right direction." But after it, he said, Shiites were infuriated. "It was the catalyst that caused the Shiites to strike back hard and ramp up the cycle of sectarian violence," he said.
Another Army officer, a strategy expert, said Shiites had waited patiently to see if the United States could provide for their security. The bombing convinced them that it was not possible, he said, and they then turned to Shiite militias for protection.
But White, the former DIA analyst, said the bombing primarily changed the way U.S. commanders viewed the war they were waging. After that day, it became much harder for them to argue that there were enough troops, because the U.S. military was given the mission of containing Shiite militias, on top of its existing missions of countering the insurgency and training Iraqi security forces.
One Army officer who recalled buying into the optimism of late 2005 and early 2006, when he was a commander in Iraq, said that in retrospect, the situation was far worse than he and others understood it to be. He said it was the Samarra bombing that led him to believe that Iraq was indeed caught in a civil war. "What Samarra came to mean for me was a defining point in time, almost like a teaching point, where the real face of the Iraq war became clear," he said.
Staff researcher Julie Tate contributed to this report.

Vision and Aims
A child's development by age 5 is a strong predictor of how healthy and successful they will be later in life. Our Reception curriculum is designed to enable all pupils to flourish and grow into happy, confident children who are ready to start the next stage of their learning journey in Key Stage 1.
By the end of the year, our aim is that pupils will be able to:
- Read and write full sentences;
- Work confidently with numbers up to 10;
- Form friendships and work as part of a team;
- Manage their own feelings and behaviour;
- Know how to stay safe and healthy at school and at home;
- Try lots of new things!
We assess children's development throughout Reception with on-going observations of their interactions and play, as well as through more structured learning opportunities, such as reading or writing in small groups with a teacher.
We map each child's progress using Development Matters, which allows us to identify areas of strength and development, as well as the key next steps for each child. We formally share this information with parents every half term through reports or consultations.
Curriculum Design
In reception, all of our learning each half term links to a central theme, such as All About Me or Habitats. These topics have been specially chosen to support the children's development, and provide children with the knowledge they need to not only effectively express their own preferences and experiences, but also to investigate and talk about other people and other places in the world.
Each morning, we study phonics, literacy, and maths, before learning more about our theme in the afternoon during topic. These afternoon lessons encompass a variety of disciplines, including science, geography, and art.
We have the opportunity to go on several exciting trips throughout the year, as well as inviting in specialist groups to teach us certain skills, such as African drumming or Indian dancing.
Collaborating with parents
We know that a child's parents are their first and most important teachers, and we want to work in partnership with you!
We make ourselves available every day at drop off and pick up so that we can share the day's events and talk to parents about particular projects or concerns. We run regular workshops showing parents the teaching techniques we use at school so that you can support learning at home as well. We also invite parents in at least once every half term to showcase our great work or simply celebrate together, for example at our Diwali party or fireworks display.
