Alcubierre, Spain
The George Orwell Route
A series of recreated fortifications mark George Orwell's path through the Spanish Civil War.
Even though he was an Englishman, famed author George Orwell made it a point to head to Spain during the Spanish Civil War in order to join the fight for democracy, mainly out of idealism. Today, his path through one portion of the war is remembered by a trail of recreated fortifications.
Orwell joined the fighting of the Spanish Civil War in 1936, despite the reasoned advice of fellow author, Henry Miller. Despite being a volunteer, Orwell wanted to head to the front lines of the war, but it was not in the cards. Instead, he was sent, with a regiment to the region of Aragon, where the fighting was rather light. There he didn't see much action, but he did encounter a great deal of hardship among the soldiers, including hunger, terrible living conditions, and lack supplies in general. While his initial visit was uneventful, he would return to Aragon later and be shot in the neck. He survived and managed to escape Spain, and his ordeal would go on to inform his book Homage to Catalonia.
Despite a general agreement among many in Spain to let the events of the civil war remain in the past, many of the trenches and fortifications where Orwell spent time have been methodically recreated today. The trenches and bunkers along what is now called the George Orwell Route look as though they have never even been touched by time, much less war. Visitors can now walk the same hilltop path that was not only visited by Orwell, but by countless soldiers who took part in the tragic war.
The Spanish Civil War may not be a popular subject among many, but thanks to Orwell's high-profile visit, this battlefield will not be forgotten any time soon.

Two years ago, the secretive augmented reality company Magic Leap established a Seattle office nearly 3,300 miles away from its headquarters in Plantation, Fla. And since then, the company has been pretty tight-lipped about the goings-on at the outpost in the industrial but increasingly trendy Georgetown neighborhood south of downtown Seattle.
But with the release of its first product — the Magic Leap One Creator Edition — the company is opening up a little more than it had in the past. Magic Leap pulled back the curtain a bit on its Seattle office, giving a few details about the work coming out of the outpost.
The company wouldn't say how many people it employs the office, but more than 50 people on LinkedIn list Magic Leap as their employer with a location of the Greater Seattle area. Magic Leap has another two open positions in Seattle on its jobs board.
The office is led by Neal Stephenson, the famed science fiction author who became Magic Leap's chief futurist four years ago and also worked at Blue Origin and Intellectual Ventures Labs, and Brian Schowengerdt, a longtime University of Washington professor who is the company's chief science and experience officer and co-founder.
The outpost is home to a group called SCEU, short for Self-Contained Existence Unit, a content-focused R&D squad led by Stephenson that works to push the limits on new things creators can build in virtual reality. Also known as Goat_Labs, the small team of about a dozen or has been tasked by CEO Rony Abovitz with sharing what they've learned with other developers.
The Goat_Labs moniker goes back to an attempt to transfer baby goat videos, which are extremely popular on YouTube, into mixed reality. The group's learnings are not fully baked software development kits or anything like that, but they are sample code examples of the new frontiers Magic Leap's R&D teams are exploring that other developers can replicate.
The Seattle office is also home to a developer relations team led by gaming veteran Tadhg Kelly. Tadhg manages relationships with key developers and creators across the Seattle region.
Magic Leap has generated a ton of interest over the years, and even more cash, raising more than $2.3 billion in its lifetime from heavy hitters like Google, Alibaba, Andreessen Horowitz, Paul Allen's Vulcan Capital and others. After going years without a product, skepticism of the much-hyped company began to creep in.
But then the company unveiled Magic Leap One Creator Edition. The $2,295 device is built for developers, designers and creatives, making it competitive with Microsoft's HoloLens headset.
Magic Leap One is composed of three main devices. The "Lightwear" glasses have a unique look that stands out from other virtual reality headsets. The "Lightpack" is a pocket-size cylindrical computer that powers the device, allowing more mobility than most virtual reality headsets that are tethered to a computer. And a controller offers "six degrees of freedom" with a thumb-operated control pad.
The device was released in August, but only in select cities, including Seattle. CNBC and The Verge got exclusive test drives of Magic Leap One. Here's the takeaway from CNBC's Todd Haselton:
The Magic Leap One is impressive, and it's unlike any computer I've used before. I see a real future in being able to interact with digital screens inside the real world around us, but Magic Leap is going to need to convince everyone else of that, too. It also needs developers and creators to help build unique experiences, which is the entire purpose of the Magic Leap One.
I imagine we're years away from the Magic Leap that's ready for the rest of us. One where I don't need my computer or phone at all, where there's no limit on the field of view and where every TV channel and movie and game I want to play is all in that world, sort of like a mixed-reality version of the Oasis from "Ready Player One."
Magic Leap hasn't made a consumer-facing product yet. However, as part of a recent alliance with AT&T the Magic Leap One device will be available for consumers to experience at select AT&T stores in Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles and San Francisco later this year, with more markets to follow.

I love the proactiveness of Sedulo, I deal with a lot of Accountants in my job and you are a
real breath of fresh air!
I really appreciate the way we are working together and hope it is the start of a great relationship.
Kay Wareing – RBS Corporate Banking
Thank you very much. I really appreciate how efficient and patient the Sedulo team has been.
Katherine Cowan
To Whom it may concern.
A few years ago we took the commercial decision to evaluate the service provided by our accountants and whether we were getting true value and advice for their fee.
Having dealt with our previous accountants for over 20 years it was not an easy decision to make the move; on reflection it is one of best commercial decisions in years. In the last year Sedulo have assisted us in taking over two companies with a level of support and professionalism that is second to none.
What we enjoy now is a team of specialist advisers that are experts in their own fields that can give advice on all aspects of running a business from accounting, advising on acquisitions, tax planning, pension schemes and wealth management.
Darrell falls in to the tax planning side, since his introduction he has analysed our business and implemented disciplines and procedures that have benefited not only the company but also three generations of our family; this just goes to demonstrate moving to Sedulo was the correct decision.
I would not hesitate to recommend their services.
Andrew Reid – Egan Reid
Hi Benn,
You guys and Sedulo has been super service minded and I highly appreciate the personal service you have been able to give during our project to get this up and running.
Thank you!
Mart Pella – Enagnitio
Hi Benn,
Getting used to writing these emails to you now; thanks on behalf of all the team at Egan Reid for all your efforts and assistance in the support you have given us in acquiring Dart Office Supplies, as with the last acquisition.
Your professionalism and attention to detail is a credit to you and Sedulo Group. Please pass on our appreciation to the rest of the team.
Here is to the next one.
Andrew & Martin Reid – Egan Reid
Good afternoon you two,
Thank you very much for your hard work on this… much appreciated!
I owe you both a beer next time I'm up north!
All the best
Andy Kidd – Hattrick Marketing
Just a quick one to say a big thank you for all your support and kindness.
Thanks again chaps,
Dean Mellor – Contract Blinds UK Ltd
Sedulo – like a breath of fresh air 🙂
Mark Newby – Camiloo
To Paul,
Without you, we would never have been in the position we are now. Sink or swim, we will always be eternally grateful for your never-ending support and brilliance!
I'm sure this is just the start and Gambino and all the team know what a big part of this you are.
Thank you Paul,
Steve & Faye Giblin – Gambino Poker
I like Paul and the Sedulo style. Sedulo are more business minded than an accountancy practice and that suits me.
Rob Bickerton- bNetCentric Ltd
Cheers Benn. It's been a long journey, I would like to personally thank you for all your help and assistance in all of the negotiations on our way to completion.
Your professionalism and enthusiasm is a credit to you and all the Sedulo team.
Andrew Reid – Managing Director, Egan Reid

Patience you must have my young padawan.
– Yoda From Starwars
I rarely start a post off with a quote but the time has never been so right to elaborate on a quality many investors lack and that is : Patience
Whether you are a seasoned investor or not, sometimes, it is just a good reminder to remain patient amidst the market conditions that currently persist. Hence, I would like to think that the sagely advice from Yoda is apt for today's stock market participants and this piece of advice goes out to all value investors out there.
And for value investors mostly, value as a group has gone through a painful period of under performance relative to growth investing. An example that I can bring up is perhaps that of David Einhorn, the founder and manager of Greenlight Capital that has suffered his worse performance since the tech bubble in 2000. Then, while loss making, insanely overvalued tech companies were the rage, and today's markets seem to be a repeat of history, with FANG stocks leading the way.
Admittedly, David Einhorn has gone on record to say that this is his one of his worse performances ever. But this is not to say that value investing does not work. It works. But incidentally, it does not beat growth investing all the time.
Apparently, growth outperforms value investing periodically as per the study done by Ken French. Since 1945, there were a total of 6 periods in which growth actually outperformed value stocks. And if you consider 10 year periods of performance of value versus growth, there were only 3 such period in which value underperformed growth investing.
Those 3 10-year periods in which value underperformed growth was :
1) The Great Depression of 1929 to 1940
2) The Tech Bubble of 1989 to 2000
3) 2004 to Present
Hence, if we look at in from a long term perspective, as proven by historical back tests and academic studies time and time again, value trumps growth most of the time. You can see this from the screen captures above.
Case in point. You can't win all the time. But you can win most of the time with value investing principles in the stock market. So the idea is to stay the course as much as possible and stick to your guns. For value investors seasoned and amateur alike, stand firmly on those principles and you will do well. Because value and logic go hand in hand. After all, you don't want to overpay for a company at those insane multiples that Netflix and Amazon is trading at.
But it looks like there is some light at the end of the tunnel for value investors who believe the data. For one, if history was anything to go by, there will be some sort of reversion sometime down the road. And the other thing as I have seen in deep value land is that there are some attractive bargains to be purchased internationally as the stock markets have recently shed some of its strength.
This was what David Einhorn had to say regarding his current underperformance.
"While we've never underperformed like this, our prior worst underperformance compared to the S&P came in March of 2000, which was a similar environment … While the environment has remained difficult with growth stocks accelerating their outperformance against value stocks this year including February, we think a reversion may finally be coming soon"
Personally, at TheHolyFinancier, I would have to say that the returns were a lot better last year than this year. But this is the game that we play in and we must get used to periods of underperformance. What matters most is that as deep value investors, we should stick the the game plan and not deviate.
Looking to Walter Schloss as an exemplary mentor, he was a stick in the mud when it came to investing and was still able to compound money at double digits percentage wise. That is perhaps something we can all learn and emulate.
So I leave you with these wise words from an unlikely source.
"Patience You Must Have, My Young Padawan." – Yoda
Thanks for reading. May all be blessed with prosperity, health and happiness!

Hello everyone!
At the eve of the Dishonored 2' s release, I'd like to address an important issue: Spoilers.
Some will for sure play through the game quicker than others, may it be out of obsession or simply for the fact that some people have more free time than others. And of course those people are eager to add the info they find out to the wiki right away. It is understandable and I am well aware that we cannot lock up the wiki until everyone has finished the game, and such is not my intention. The info should and will be added.
However, I hereby ask each of you to try and be fair to other users who have not finished the game and want to find out for themselves.
- Adding new pages for missions or characters that are potentially spoilery will be fine. People who don't know that info yet can well avoid those by simply not going on that page.
- Try to keep the activity feed as clean as possible. If you have questions on a subject, please direct them to the appropriate page, and add a spoiler warning or write a few introductional words so that crucial information will require a click to be seen.
- Do NOT blurt out info like "Delilah can be defeated in this and that way" without any warning in the comment sections.
I hereby also encourage the regular users to point out this blog to new users if necessary.
Thank you,
- Piko

Will Port Vale make a move for Crawley Town midfielder?
According to a Twitter account, Port Vale are interested in signing Crawley Town midfielder Josh Payne.
The Twitter account EFL Hub @efl_hub says that Cheltenham Town and Port Vale are both interested in the 28 year-old midfielder.
Former West Ham and Oxford United player Payne is out of contract in the summer and after scoring five times in 39 games last season, he has made 22 appearances this campaign.
The experienced campaigner is closing on 300 Football League appearances.
Vale appear to be interested in adding another central midfielder after almost agreeing terms with Northern Ireland U21 International Mark Sykes. However the Glenavon player opted for a move to Oxford United instead.
However, it should be noted that football gossip on Twitter is notoriously unreliable and this could simply be another made-up rumour.

Saudi banks resilient despite lower oil prices
Beirut - Lower oil prices will soon start to weigh on Saudi Arabia's banks, which are likely to see the percentage of poor-performing loans edge higher by the end of the year, according to Standard & Poor's (S&P). However, Saudi bankers seem to count on the sector's ability to sustain the resiliency it showed in recent years.
"Over the past few years, we have seen a stabilisation in asset quality and it has been a story of declining credit losses. But we now believe that through the end of this year, we will begin to see credit losses picking up," Timucin Engin, a banking analyst at S&P, wrote on September 2nd.
Lenders in the kingdom have managed to defy many analysts' expectations by posting generally healthy results, despite the roughly 60% slide in oil prices since June 2014. The ratings agency said it usually takes a few quarters for asset quality issues to surface in a less resilient economy.
S&P's hinting that Saudi Arabia's economy is among the more resilient economies is what the kingdom's lenders count on. "Saudi banks have around $120 billion in available liquidity, including their investments abroad. If bad loans do arise, as S&P expects, the liquidity is more than enough to take care of the matter," a leading Saudi banker told The Arab Weekly.
The banks' non-performing loans stood at 1.2% of total loans in the first quarter, up from 1.1% in 2014, according to data from the Saudi Arabian Monetary Agency, the central bank. That is down from a peak of 3.3% in mid-2010 when the kingdom's financial sector suffered fallout from the global financial crisis.
"This is more reason to believe that the Saudi banking system is capable of fending off any fallout from lower oil prices," the banker said, speaking on the condition of anonymity.
S&P said long-term data suggested a clear link between non-performing loans and oil prices. After oil prices fell about $30 per barrel in late 2008, the ratio of bad loans more than doubled in subsequent months, data indicated. The link is likely to be reinforced if, as expected, the government begins to slow spending, pumping less money into the economy.
Still, analysts are not overly worried about the health of the Saudi banking sector, as the regulator requires lenders to keep coverage ratios well above the requirements proposed by Basel III and requires banks to make provisions for loans before they sour. "Banks are cognizant of this [rising credit losses] and we would expect a gradual pickup in provisions," said Suha Urgan, another banking analyst at S&P.
Meanwhile, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) warned that lower prices of commodities, including oil, might keep world economic growth moderate.
"Global growth remains moderate, reflecting a further slowdown in emerging economies and a weak recovery in advanced economies. In an environment of rising financial market volatility, declining commodity prices, weaker capital inflows and depreciating emerging market currencies, downside risks to the outlook have risen, particularly for emerging markets and developing economies," it said in a note presented September 3rd to Group of 20 finance ministers and central bank governors.
Financial leaders from the world's 20 biggest economies agreed to step up reform efforts to boost disappointingly growth, saying reliance on ultra-low interest rates would not be enough to accelerate economic expansion. But the IMF said commodity price declines over the past year have alleviated inflation pressures and mitigated external vulnerabilities in net commodity importers while increasing external and fiscal vulnerabilities in commodity exporters.
"Oil exporters that have accumulated savings and have fiscal space can let fiscal deficits increase and allow a more gradual adjustment of public spending. For floaters with less policy space, exchange rate flexibility will be a critical buffer to the shock. This may require improving macroeconomic policy frameworks in some countries and keeping balance sheet exposures manageable," the IMF said.
Concerning Saudi Arabia, the IMF's message is clear. "This means Riyadh should be careful about sustaining high public expenditure, particularly if it's going to finance it with local loans; that is, loans raised from local banks," a Saudi private sector source told The Arab Weekly on condition of anonymity. "I don't see imminent fiscal problems but care is advised to not expose local banks to unnecessary pressures."
Oil prices seem poised to stay low for years, derivatives markets say, keeping a lid on inflation and helping boost global growth, Reuters reported. Oil has more than halved in value over the last year, thanks to huge oversupply, and many oil companies, particularly in the United States, say they may soon have to rein in production, tightening supply, unless the market recovers.

Featured Treatment: PRP Hair Restoration

There is a revolutionary, non-surgical treatment that can effectively reduce the appearance of cellulite from some of the toughest problem areas, including the thighs, stomach, and buttocks. ZWave PRO technology delivers energy shockwaves into the area of concern, disrupting the structure of the fatty tissue for smoother, less dimpled skin. This innovative procedure is designed to be comfortable, quick, and affordable, without the extensive downtime or recovery typical of more invasive methods. Our board-certified dermatologist, Deborah H. Atkin, M.D., can determine whether ZWave PRO can help you achieve your cosmetic goals during your initial consultation.
To learn more about ZWave PRO cellulite treatments or to schedule a consultation with Dr. Atkin, please contact our office today.
Cellulite is an extremely common condition that typically affects women more often than men. Some suggest that this is due to women's higher levels of estrogen and others say that women simply have thinner skin than men. Regardless, the known causes of cellulite are numerous, and they include a decrease in metabolism, weight gain, rapid weight loss, hormonal changes, physiology, and genetic predisposition. The dimpled, orange peel-like appearance is due to fatty tissue pushing through fibrous connective tissue and creating small nodules. Diet and exercise may be able to minimize cellulite for some people; however, these bumps often prove resistant to traditional methods of removal.
Using an acoustic radial wave therapy, ZWave PRO delivers energy into the area of concern through a handheld applicator. As a result, the gas bubbles found within the fatty tissue pop and cause the structure to become unstable, gradually leading to smoother skin. In addition to diminishing signs of cellulite, ZWave PRO technology also may reduce the appearance of stretch marks and enhance the texture of the skin overall.
*Results May Vary
ZWave PRO is designed to be entirely non-invasive, and the device utilizes sound waves to disrupt fatty tissue. As a result, you should not feel discomfort during the procedure. The applicator will be placed directly on the skin of the area to be treated and the handheld device will be drawn across the "problem" area. Multiple treatments, between 6-10 on average, will be recommended for optimal effect. These sessions can be completed up to three times per week, and regular maintenance is recommended.
If you have additional questions about ZWave PRO treatments, or if you wish to schedule a consultation with Dr. Atkin, please contact us or call 858.350.7546 today.

March 4, 1943. A date that entered the history of Italian music and the collective memory, emblematic of Lucio Dalla's personality and eclecticism: his real date of birth used to mask a title too daring for the time. And he was bold indeed. From the jam sessions at the age of 15 with the legendary jazz trumpeter Chet Baker, to the introduction of the "scat" in italian songs, from musical experiments to the political commitment of the early 70s.
Never stopped, never repetitive, never retired on position income, but always in search of new forms, new languages, so much so as to discover an exceptional writer of texts and become a real pavement poet, managing to fresco small stories in a unique way everyday characters on the fringes, as well as the great philosophical drawings linked to the human condition, but using a direct language, sometimes unsettling and visionary.
From "Anna and Marco" to "Futura", from "Com'è profondo il mare" to "Washington", from "L'anno che verrà" to the famous "Caruso", Lucio bequeathed to italian music a heritage of priceless value, not only with the songs but also with his talent scouting skills that allowed him to launch the careers of Ron, Stadio, Luca Carboni and Samuele Bersani.
Unforgettable, then, are the tours around Italy with Gianni Morandi and Francesco De Gregori that gave life to successes such as "Vita", "Banana Republic" and "Ma come fanno i marinai"
To remind us of the greatness of this phenomenal artist will be "Work in Progress Band", who from 2014 bring around Italy a unique and unforgettable show, thanks to the natural physical and vocal resemblance of the leader Valentino Aquilano, combined with the mastery of his traveling companions in re-proposing the lyrics and atmospheres of Maestro Lucio Dalla. The "Work in Progress" will perform on the stage of the Holiday Village Florenz on July 19th at h. 21:30, in a concert of great artistic value in an exceptional setting.

Unprojectable: an audiovisual feast by Tony Conrad
American artist Tony Conrad employs a battery of amplified strings, film projectors, electric drills and assorted machinery to create a high-octane sonic assault. Unprojectable: Projection and Perspective is a live performance conceived specially for the Turbine Hall at Tate Modern. The musicians and their unorthodox instruments are visible to the audience only as projections cast onto giant screens. TateShots was there to capture this one-off experience. more

Recently, Mukhtar Mai's married Nasir Abbas Gabol in her low-key hometown of Meerwala. The publicity and the debate generated by the event, however, resonated across the globe, garnering attention from international newspapers and television channels.
Yet, unlike the coverage of the brutal events and awe-inspiring heroism that initially catapulted Mukhtar Mai into the public eye, many of the stories published in the Western media betrayed the confusion of attempts to process the somewhat unlikely union.
Indeed, Mukhtar's marriage presents a conundrum even to Pakistani feminists. Should the fact that Mukhtar chose to get married after having vowed never to do so be celebrated or condemned? How should one evaluate the fact that she was to be a second wife? Even further, is the act of marrying a man who threatens to kill himself and destroy his own family if she refused him an act of resistance or coercion? Should the fact that she set the conditions for the marriage be touted as an example for other women? Finally, was there possibly a romantic spin to be put on the story, where a constable entrusted with guarding his charge falls in love with her and ultimately marries her despite the social stigmas attached to her?

06.09.17For Coaches: On Correcting Instead of Critiquing
I've spent a lot of time watching coaches this year. One of the common ideas I find myself noticing is the difference between critique and correction. I took the section on this idea from Practice Perfect and adapted and simplified it slightly. Here it is.
Critique involves telling a participant how to do it better. Correction means going back and doing it over, and doing it better. Critique—merely telling someone that she did it wrong—can be helpful but if you really want to help people change their behaviors it's not nearly as useful as correction. Only correction, doing it over again right, trains people to succeed. So ideally rather than telling a player to cut more sharply, you'd give them an opportunity to practice cutting more sharply- ideally as soon as possible and in a similar setting. Only when she has done correctly what was at first erroneous has correction been accomplished.
It may be worth reflecting that the body's neural circuits have very little sense of time. If you do it right once and wrong once, it's encoded each way equally in your neural circuitry. It may matter little which one happened first. The ratio is one to one. If you are correcting, then, you might look for opportunities to correct in multiples. If one of your tennis players hits backhand incorrectly, doing it right once will help erase the error, but doing it right three or four times right away will begin to overwhelm the wrong memory with the right one. Think about saying, after an error in corrected, "Yes. Good. Now do it five more times!"
Correct Instead of Critique
- Strive to ask participants to redo an action differently or better rather than just telling them whether or how it could have been different.
- Try to shorten the feedback loop and achieve correction as quickly as possible after an action that requires intervention.
- Maintain a teaching mentality and focus on the solution ("cut more sharply to the basket") rather than the problem ("your cut wasn't sharp").
- Seek opportunities to correct privately. When you correct publicly, make it clear that it's a common error, then make sure to correct, not critique, by asking all participants to repeat the action.

To say this is a recipe on its own is a bit of a stretch. This is a great base for a recipe for dinner. I added italian blend spice as well as garlic. It came out a little dry. Next time I will be adding chopped tomatoes to make it moist. You could also do a mexican theme to it by adding taco seasoning and beans with chedder cheese. possibilites are endless!
Oct 4, 2008
This dish is a staple at our house. I'll sometimes use mozzarella cheese in place of bread crumbs. It tastes great either way! Very filling and delicious.**Sincerely**

After a number of the Avengers were killed in Washington, D.C. by the Absorbing Man, Tony Stark had built a number of robots based on those who died. Among those was one based on the Hawkeye. The original Hawkeye robot was fashioned with a personality much like that of it's human name sake, and would be part of a group led by the Vision called the Iron Avengers.
After sweeping a section of New York City of Hydras, and battling Frost Giants, the Iron Avengers were all destroyed by the Skull's invading army. The Iron Avengers were later rebuilt by King Britain, although it appears without any personalities based on the Avengers they represent, they would also be mass produced to be a large army of robots. This new robot, dubbed Steelbow, would defend Buckingham Palace from the attacking Tong of Creel. It would later be charged with aiding the Black Knight in investigating why the Human Torch in the Savage Land went out.
This would bring them into conflict with the Toad, who had switched mutant powers with Magneto and would put Steelbow under his control until the Iron Maiden would restore the Vibranium balance in the Savage Land, restoring the Toad to normal. Steelbow would be used in battling the resurrected Absorbing Man after he literally absorbed all of New York. Following this the Iron Avengers have had a lesser presence in the happenings on Earth-9997, but at least one Steelbow was present during the wedding of King Britain and Medusa. A group of Steelbow robots accompanied Iron Maiden into space to try and free the Eternals, who were trapped in Vibranium following the desturction of the planet they inhabited.

Every year we throw our support behind the African Well Fund's "Build a Well for Bono's Birthday" campaign, and have also done probably a half-dozen other events in the last few years that involved raising money for the AWF or similar causes. We tend to tie fund raisers to U2-related events, like tour parties or album parties, because I don't think we'd have much luck getting people to show up if the hook was "let's just do a fund raiser." (The tricky thing is that sometime this year we're going to need to raise funds to pay the costs of redeveloping the web site. I don't work for our web host company anymore, so the free ride ended a couple years ago.)
AWF is extremely grateful to @U2's support through the years. The money raised has had a significant impact on the lives of so many.We are just gearing up now for the 7th annual Build a Well for Bono's Birthday fundraiser so stay tuned for details.We send the card to Bono every year and every few years he sends a thank you
Matt, throw up a Paypal account and I'm pretty sure that the regulars here will come to the party. This site means a hell of a lot to a lot of people and that's because it really is a great place to be. Also, just want to throw a shout out to all the mods for keeping their heads in here, cause it's been a bit of a nuthouse since GOYB came out and if I was a mod, I'd have gone nuts and started getting really cranky with all the rubbish that's being tossed around in here. Thanks for keeping this place civil.
BTW, we've had a Paypal button on our home page for about 3-4 years now.

Windows: Last month we suggested that you synchronise your Windows clock with an alternative time server to increase accuracy. In order to make your Windows clock as accurate as possible you should also consider tweaking your settings so the clock updates daily instead of weekly. This option is not available in Date/Time settings, but you can do it by setting a daily update as a task.
Most computers suffer from clock drift; differences of seconds or even minutes between the software clock that runs when your computer is on and the battery-operated hardware clock in BIOS. The most common reason for the drift is leaving your computer turned on for more than a day which can cause an estimated clock drift of a minute for every day without rebooting. Extreme temperatures, malware, and electromagnetic interference can also cause clock drift. You can see how far your computer's clock drifts from the NIST time server here.
Technology blog One Tip a Day offers instructions on how to easily create a task that updates your clock daily.
- Click on the start button and type "Task Scheduler". Click on the link that appears.
- Click on "˜Create Task' and give the task a name. I used "Daily Time Update".
- In the General tab, click on the '˜Change User or Group' button and enter the name '˜Local Service'. Check the box for '˜Run with highest privleges'.
- Go to the '˜Triggers' tab and click '˜New'. Select 'Daily' and choose a time for the task to run.
- Go to the 'Actions' tab and add these two actions in order, one at a time:
- Choose 'Start a program' enter
with the arguments
start w32time task_started
- Choose 'Start a program' enter
with the arguments
- Choose 'Start a program' enter
- Go to the '˜Settings' tab and check the box '˜Run as soon as possible after a scheduled start is missed'.
Save your task. If you want to make sure the task works properly you can right-click on the task name and run the task manually.
Keep in mind that after adding the daily time task the Date/Time settings will still say the next synchronisation is a week away.

at solving this issue for you the eCommerce tracking as we're going to install, and I'm
going to show you how to install enhanced eCommerce transaction tracking onto your purchase
pages. This is just a tiny bit of the enhanced eCommerce
tracking feature set of Google Analytics. But I wanted to show it so you know how this
process would go along. Because we need to install an extensive data
layer. And then we can transfer that information
on to Google Analytics, and also to our Facebook Pixel or our Google Ads conversion tracking. Now, as I mentioned at the beginning, this
is more complex than it seems. And therefore I wanted to take my time and
I've split this up into three parts. In this first part, we're going to cover what
we actually going to install and what we need to prepare in order for us to go the next
step, which is setting up the data layer, which we're going to do in this second video. And then in the third video, we are actually
going to set up our tags. So we can take that sweet information that
we have now in the data layer and forward it on to our tools to Google Analytics, Facebook
Pixel, and Google Ads conversion tracking. Now, as I said, we got lots to cover. Let's dive in. All right, welcome back to our demo shop. On this demo shop, we want to install Google
Analytics eCommerce tracking today. So just to demonstrate what this would look
like, I'm going to go through a quick order here. And once I get to the thank you page, we can
see that we have several tags firing here. At the heart of all of this is our Google
Analytics event enhanced eCommerce that sends our data over to Google Analytics. This is done in form of an event. So in Google Analytics, under the real time
reporting, we should be able to see our event information that just came in. Here we go, our transaction information and
this sends with it data from our data layer that we have implemented. So what products were bought, transaction
ID and so on. We also have an extension available for our
Chrome browser. So if you go into the developer tools, you
should be able to see what data got sent over. The extension is called the GTMGA debugger
which you can install onto your browser. We're going to reload this here. And here we have a tab called enhanced eCommerce
that you can click and this is where it was sent to and all the information that was sent
over with our order. Later on, we should be able to see this inside
of Google Analytics under our conversion reports, here under eCommerce. And then we should have our sales performance,
for example filled with the information that we have retrieved from our data layer. Additionally, as you might have seen, I also
fire a Facebook purchase event and a conversion purchase event to Google Ads. But that's something we're going to set up
in the end. So how will this implementation go down? At the heart of all of this is a special kind
of data layer. This is an enhanced eCommerce tracking data
layer that we need to implement onto our page. This is not something that we presumably be
able to do ourselves unless we use a plugin, or it's already pre installed. But I'm going to show you a way to write specification
for your developer to get this implemented correctly. Once this is there will be able to configure
our tags, we're going to go through this step by step, but also going to give you a container
download in the description below. So you can install this easily to your Google
Tag Manager container. Last but not least, we should be able to see
our data in Google Analytics, Facebook and Google ads and have our tracking correctly
set up. Now what do you need in order for this implementation
to work? First of all, you would need to have Google
Tag Manager installed, which we obviously have here already. If you're not sure, if Google tag manager
has installed correctly, go went to your Google Tag Manager account and click on the Preview
button to see if on your page then your preview mode pops up. This is an indication that Google Tag Manager
is correctly installed. Then on the Google Analytics side, we also
need to prepare something in the admin section. You will need to go under the view that you
send the data to under the eCommerce settings here and enable eCommerce and also enable
enhanced eCommerce reporting. Save this and we have our Google Analytics
prepared to receive that data. Last but not least, you probably want to figure
out a way that you can do test conversions easily on the shop that you're working on. Either offline on your local machine. Or if this is a live site, you might want
to get a coupon code setup or test credit card because we will be working with this
order receive page, which obviously only can get to want to go through the whole checkout
flow. So this will not be a one time thing. So best is to get something set up that you
can do this more often in order to see if your data is coming through correctly. Now with this in place, let's get started
setting up our data layer in the next lesson. All right, this is it with the first part
of this three part video series. If you haven't yet, then maybe subscribe as
the video is not yet out, but maybe you can already find it here. So follow along in the next video and I'll
see you over there.

SAN ANDRES-La Libertad, El Salvador
San Andres was an important commercial site having strong trade links with the Guatemalan Highlands, the Pacific Slope, and particularly with Copan in Honduras. The archaeological zone was settled early on in the Middle Pre-Classic (800-300 B.C.). It went on to become an important regional administrative and ceremonial center during the Late Classic (600-900 A.D). It is located in the Zapotitan Valley in central El Salvador.
San Andres is situated within an archaeological park, and is divided into two main groups, both of which can be visited. The area of the park is about 87 acres/35 hectares. Over 60 mounds have been identified. The ruins of a17th century indigo plantation are located on the property with associated historical information found in the museum. The park is 20 miles/32 kms from the Capital and about the same distance from the city of Santa Ana, in the central part of the country. Take the Pan American Highway past the town of Santa Tecla, to km 32 and look for signage for a turnoff to the site. The small, yet interesting UNESCO site of Joya de Ceren is located a short distance away.
HOURS: 9 A.M-4 P.M. Closed Monday
ENTRANCE FEE: U.S. $3, plus parking fee U.S. $1
GUIDES: Yes, inquire at visitor kiosk
SERVICES: Bathrooms, snack bar, theatre, picnic area
ON-SITE MUSEUM: Yes
ACCOMMODATIONS: Lodging can be found in San Salvador and Santa Ana
GPS: 13d 48' 37" N, 89d 23' 27" W
San Andres was first settled in the Middle Pre Classic. Monumental architecture begins to appear in the Late Pre Classic (300 B.C.-200 A.D.). The tremendous eruption of Ilopango volcano c.250 A.D. forced the abandonment of the site. This event had wide repercussions throughout the Maya area, disrupting trade routes and creating a mass exodus of the large population affected. The site was later reoccupied in the 5th century.
During the Late Classic (600-900 A.D.), the site reached its apogee, and a number of its core structures were completed. A strong relationship has been identified with Copan in Honduras during this time frame. A ceramic style known as "Copador" was widely distributed between the two sites. The central theme, written in glyphs on the upper band of the ceramics as ox uiil, refers to "abundant food". Unlike Copan, there are no stelae or other glyphic records that record the names of its rulers or its history.
The first investigations of the site were carried out by Stanley Boggs, and BY John and Chris Dimick in the 1940's. Further excavations and restorations were conducted in the 1970's, with current work continuing at the site.
There are two main structural groups at San Andres. The Acropolis Complex lies at the southern end of a north/south axis. A large pyramid complex known as La Campana is located to the north across a very wide plaza.
The Acropolis contains Structures 1-4 and 7, and is set about a raised central plaza. Structure 1 is located on the southern end of the plaza. It is a truncated pyramid that has been partially restored. There are two small stairways that reach up to a terrace. From here a central stairway leads to the summit where a temple once stood. The structure reaches a height of 49 feet/15 meters.
Adjacent to Structure 1 is Structure 2 which consists of a low platform containing a palace type construction. The east side of the plaza contains Structure 3 and Structure 4. These are partially restored small pyramids with temples at the summit.
Structure 7 is located just behind Structure 1. This was possibly a royal residence built upon a separate raised platform. An interesting cache was discovered within the structure that shows a close relationship to Copan. It contained eccentric flints that were associated with royalty, as well as artifacts connected to auto sacrifice such as a sting ray spine and spondylus seashells. Numerous tombs have been discovered containing "Copador" style ceramics. This ceramic style is also heavily found at Copan as well. The on-site museum has a fine collection of these ceramics.
Structure 5, also known as La Campana is situated about 700 feet/213 meters north across the main plaza. This is the largest structure at the site with a height of 60 feet/18 meters. It is a pyramidal structure that has not been restored, though excavations have been initiated. There are twin stairways that are on the western side that lead to an upper terrace. From there a central stairway leads to a summit temple.

A Painting in Oil Pastel…using gold irridescent pigment for the tree's background. You need to see this one in person to enjoy the reflective property of this one.
I thought I'd work on my facebook profile…but I don't have any friends. A result of living the reclusive artist's life, i guess…
If any of my friends out there would like to have me as their friend on facebook:
I thought I would try offering a few of the little oil pastel paintings I have been working on Etsy. It's a great website that for buying and selling handmade things. In addition to the usual detailed photos, I wanted the buyer to get a sense of scale…and a glimpse of how messy I keep my desk!
Just wanted everyone to know in case you are interested.
I have been painting very small oil pastel paintings. Having to cover a very small surface, I am able to work quickly. This exercise has allowed me to visualize my idea before I commit to a large, time comsuming painting. These exercises also give me small original paintings to offer for sale at hard-to-resist prices.
Please feel free to comment on which ones you think "work" and don't.

I was missing the warm weather when I could take my bike for a spin, and painted this small oil pastel
[kml_flashembed movie="http://www.kenswinson.com/flash/pastelGallery11.swf" height="1000″ width="700″ fversion="9″ useexpressinstall="true"/]
Now that I am out of school, and must use my art to pay bills, I am getting serious about making art my daily grind. I am going to try and make a new habit of painting a small painting each morning before starting my daily work.
These tiny paintings are about 5 inches tall, and matted to fit an 8″ x 10″ frame. I think they will sell prety well at shows for a couple of bucks each. I want to offer a few on Etsy. I have just joined, and already sold one print, but this would be my first original painting to sell on Etsy.
For those who have some experience, which of these 4 do you think would be the best to put on Etsy?
Spent 1/2 the day working in the sculpture studio. Thought I'd try and make an interactive presentation of them in their current state. Roll mouse over the images to spin for a 360degree view. Let me know if you run into any kinks.

5 Ways to Achieve Hostel Hygge While Traveling this Winter
Whether you love or loathe the winter, there's something to be said about the feeling of being warm and cozy inside when it's so cold outside. The Dutch have a word for it, hygge (pronounced hue-gah), and it's all about appreciating the little moments of bliss found in being comfy and content. There are a lot of ways you can create your own sense of hygge while traveling, like finding the ultimate feeling of winter joy at your favorite HI USA hostel.
Sit under magical lighting at HI San Francisco City Center
One of the key elements to achieving hygge is the right lighting, like candles and sweet fairy lights, for a magical, warm glow. The folks at HI San Francisco City Center always go the extra mile when it comes to setting the mood, and in the winter they're especially good at making the hostel's nooks and common areas extra cozy with lights and festive decorations.
Indulge in comfort food at HI Chicago
Comfort counts for your stomach too! It's the season to warm up from the inside with mugs of sweet hot chocolate and bowls of delicious soup, and if you happen to be visiting HI Chicago in the winter, you're in for all kinds of treats. Check out the Christkindlmarket, a German-style holiday market where you can indulge in some cold-weather favorites like glühwein (warm, spiced wine), hot cocoa, and roasted nuts. If you've missed the market, there's always Cefecito, a Cuban café that is basically in the hostel's lobby which serves all kinds of coffees and hearty pressed sandwiches.
Take a walk and then get cozy at HI New York City
An underrated aspect of hygge involves getting outside to take in some brisk air, and to appreciate the magic of winter sunshine sparkling on a snow-covered city. HI New York City hostel is a short walk from Central Park, so you can bundle up and take stroll amongst the icicled trees, or if you prefer, take to the pavement and explore a New York neighborhood.
Connect with nature or snuggle up with a good book at HI Point Reyes
Winter in Northern California involves cold, crisp days with clear, blue skies perfect for hiking around the Point Reyes National Seashore's extensive network of scenic trails. The other kind of winter day here is rainy, and that's when you'll want to get some snacks and a cup of tea, a fireplace (or a window with a view), and a good book to read in the common area at HI Point Reyes. Pure hygge.
Play games with friends at HI Richmond
Hostelling and hygge go together because one way of achieving this state of contentment is to surround yourself with friends to share the joy. Whether it's a conversation by the fire, or a round of games to raise the spirits, hygge is definitely merrier with more. If you're traveling solo, the pool table at HI Richmond (or one of the many common areas around the country) is a great place to find instant friends to make winter memories with.

For the greater common good, this item is limited to one per customer. We appreciate your cooperation.
On February 12, 1830, Edmund Haynes Taylor Jr. - widely considered the father of modern bourbon - was born in Columbus, Kentucky. Orphaned as a baby, Taylor was adopted by Edmund Haynes Taylor Sr. and was raised in Louisiana by his great-uncle, Zachary Taylor (who would later become the twelfth President of the United States). After attending the Boyer's French School in New Orleans, Taylor moved back to Kentucky and matriculated from the B. B. Sayer's Academy. Following in the footsteps of his adopted father, Taylor became involved in banking and came to the aid of several Kentucky distilleries that were suffering from Reconstruction.
In 1869, Taylor purchased a small distillery situated on the banks of the Kentucky River. Christened the distillery OFC (OFC was an abbreviation for Old Fire Copper) Distillery, Taylor began renovating and modernizing the plant - he purchased copper fermentation tanks, new grain grinding equipment and unique, columnar stills. During his tenure, Taylor also implemented several innovative distilling techniques, including aging whiskey in climate-controlled rickhouses.
At the time, an overwhelming number of distilleries were still not aging their bourbon. In order to make their spirits palatable, some distillers and retailers added juices and syrups to sweeten their bourbon, while others added acid and tobacco to give their bourbon its signature amber hue.
Armed with distilling experience and a political pedigree, Taylor, together with Treasury Secretary John G. Carlisle, was instrumental in passing the Bottled-In-Bond Act of 1897 (27 C.F.R. 5.21). The act required that any spirit labeled as "Bonded"or "Bottled-in-Bond" be the product of one distiller at one distillery during one distillation season. In addition, the Act required that bonded spirits be aged in a federally bonded warehouse under U.S. government supervision for at least four years and bottled at 100 proof.
Named in honor of Colonel E.H. Taylor Jr., Colonel E.H. Taylor Jr. Small Batch Bourbon is made from a blend of seven-year old barrels hallowed from the sixth floor of a brick warehouse in Kentucky. Bottled in Bond at 100 proof, the bourbon has distinctive notes of oak and dried fruit. The initially sweet flavors give way to hints of salted caramel, butterscotch and orange, which linger on the finish.
Each bottle of Colonel E.H. Taylor Jr. Small Batch Bourbon is packaged behind a vintage label and canister reminiscent of the bottles Taylor used over one hundred years ago.

Game time for Argo Group Gold Cup
Published on May 6th, 2019
Hamilton, Bermuda (May 6, 2019) – Twelve teams are set to begin the 69th Argo Group Gold Cup tomorrow on Hamilton Harbour, with the match racing in 33-foot International One Designs to be just off the docks of the Royal Bermuda Yacht Club.
This is the second year that the Grade 1 match racing event is being held in May, and while the conditions last year were idyllic, with winds of 6 to 15 knots, tomorrow's forecast is calling for northwesterly winds of 15 to 20 knots, conditions similar to what the crews practiced in today, with winds to stay in the mid teens for the next few days.
Besides winning the coveted King Edward VII Gold Cup trophy, the oldest trophy awarded in match racing second to only the America's Cup, the Argo Group Gold Cup will also award $100,000 in prize money to the top eight finishers. The winner will receive $30,000, second place wins $15,000, third place $12,000, and fourth place $11,000. Crews finishing fifth through eighth will receive $8,000 each.
In what is believed to be a first at a Grade 1 match racing regatta, the Argo Group Gold Cup includes the three reigning match racing world champions – Australian Torvar Mirsky is the Open champion, Lucy Macgregor (GBR) is the three-time Women's champion, and Italian Ettore Botticini is the Youth champion.
All three competed in last year's Argo Gold Cup but Botticini had not won the youth title. He achieved that feat last July. Besides Mirsky, Macgregor, and Botticini, the Argo Group Gold Cup also includes six-time Open world champion Ian Williams of the U.K. and Harry Price of Australia, the 2017 Youth world champion.
Additionally, three past winners of the King Edward VII Gold Cup trophy will be seeking it again: Johnie Berntsson of Sweden in 2014 and 2008, Mirsky in 2011, and Williams in 2006.
The first match on the schedule pits grizzled veteran Johnie Berntsson of Sweden, a two-time winner of the King Edward VII Gold Cup, against first-time participant Kelsey Durham, the Royal Bermuda Yacht Club representative.
Other matches in the first flight include Maxime Mesnil of France (sailing his first Argo Group Gold Cup) racing Chris Poole of the U.S.; Ettore Botticini (the reigning Youth Match Racing World Champion) of Italy racing Eric Monnin (the World No. 1-ranked match racer) of Switzerland; and Australian Torvar Mirsky (the reigning Open match racing world champion) against Lucy Macgregor (the reigning Women's match racing world champion) of the U.K.
Pauline Courtois (Women's No. 1-ranked skipper) of France makes her Argo Group Gold Cup debut in the third flight of matches when she takes on Nicklas Dackhammar of Sweden in Match 3. Harry Price of Australia, another first-time entrant, makes his debut one match later, against Mirsky.
This year's Argo Group Gold Cup features two of the top women's skippers in Macgregor and Courtois. Courtois is a two-time women's match racing champion in her native France (2017, '18) and also the two-time champion of the Women's International Match Racing Series (2017, '18). Macgregor beat Courtois to win the 2018 Women's Worlds in Russia and regards Courtois as a fierce competitor.
"Pauline and her team have been one of our toughest opponents at women's events over the past couple of years," said Macgregor. "They seem to be very natural sailors and I'm sure will be tough to beat on the circuit again this year."
Match racing might be the best discipline in the sport of sailing where men and women can compete on equal terms. The racecourses are short and quick and if the wind is light to moderate the strength advantage of men's crews is neutralized.
That proved true last year when Macgregor advanced to the semifinals before placing fourth overall. Never before had a women's crew made it to the semifinal round of the Argo Group Gold Cup.
Monnin, the World No. 1-ranked Open match racing skipper, trained with Macgregor in her run up to the 2012 Olympics and has raced against the likes of Sally Barkow (who'll crew with Macgregor this week in Bermuda) and France's Claire Leroy, a past two-time women's world champion (2007, '08). He sees no reason women's crews shouldn't be included in Open match race regattas.
"To be clear, a women's team is as difficult to beat as a men's team," said Monnin. "I think match racing should always have women and mixed teams. To allow a flexible crew number inside the weight limit is a key to open match racing for women."
Macgregor is sailing with an all-women's crew while Courtois has two men and one woman in her crew. Poole, the world No. 15-ranked skipper, is also sailing with two men and one woman. The first crewmember he signed up was Bermudian Emily Nagel, who sailed the past Volvo Ocean Race with Team AkzoNobel.
"Emily and I became friends on Facebook and when I saw her background, I asked her if she would sail with me," said Poole. "I totally support women in crews. Emily's an incredibly talented sailor who's at the top of the sport. She's very strong and her skills suit match racing very well. It'll be her first Gold Cup and I'm happy to have her. She's going to kill it."

The Gold Cup was awarded as a match racing trophy in 1937 and 2019 marks the 69th running of the event organized by the Royal Bermuda Yacht Club.
