There is nothing quite like mid-fall – we celebrate Oktoberfest, Harvest Fest and of course, Halloween. We decorate with bales of hay, chrysanthemums, pumpkins, and naturally artistically arrange them with colorful blooming azaleas.
This might have been considered impossible years ago, but now with Encore® Azalea – the industry standard for repeat-blooming azaleas – the choices for fall decoration are only limited by your imagination.
There are now 31 selections of Encore® Azaleas, and each and every one has the first name Autumn because that is when they crescendo with blooms prior to going into a winter rest. Eight of these selections are known to bloom profusely in mid-fall, lining up superbly with fall festivals.
You have to admit that pumpkins, bales of hay and Autumn Lilac™ Azaleas sound like the perfect complementary color scheme to welcome friends, guests and little gremlins to your home. Why not add your favorite color of mums to commence the celebration?
Most gardeners treat mums as an annual, disposing of them with the end of the bloom. With that in mind, we urge you to consider containers of some of the most popular selections from the Southern Living® Plant Collection. Use them for decoration and then plant them in the garden in early November. Fall is a great time to plant! Try clustering pots of 'Sunshine' Ligustum for decoration – these would be about as festive of a choice as one could imagine.
On the other hand, you might consider the chartreuse-colored EverColor® 'Everillo' Carex – the hottest grass in the market that lights up the garden like golden lanterns. It would be the perfect complement for Autumn Lilac™ or a showy foil for the flaming Autumn Bonfire™. These two great mid-fall blooming Encore®Azaleas are both compact, or dwarf.
With Encore®Azaleas, your neighborhood association may just want to start a fall azalea festival. Imagine throngs of people coming to see beautiful azaleas blooming with your favorite pansies, snapdragons, dianthus and flowering kale and cabbage. It may look like you have tricked Mother Nature, but such is the case each and every year for those that grow Encore®Azaleas.
If an azalea festival built around the mid-fall bloomers sounds appealing, know that there are five pink selections, one purple, one red and one white. But don't forget, Encore®Azaleas come in early-, mid- and late-fall blossoming varieties, giving you the opportunity to really spread out your blooming season.
These eight Encore®Azaleas also give you options for layering in different heights. As mentioned, the red Autumn Bonfire™ and the purple Autumn Lilac™ are dwarf. The five pink varieties however, offer three great intermediate selections that get 4-foot tall – Autumn Debutante™, Autumn Monarch™ and Autumn Rouge™ – while Autumn Carnival™ and Autumn Princess™ are dwarf. Autumn Moonlight™ with white blossoms that seem to glisten, is also intermediate, and will match perfectly with any other color.
While we have touted the festival season as coinciding with the fall azalea bloom, know that Encore®Azaleas create a most tranquil and picturesque gardening paradise in both spring and fall. This is the reason they are the number one selling azaleas in the market.
On the other hand, we at Encore® are excited with the change of seasons, the festivals, and of course, the fall bloom of our Autumn™azaleas. So, with that in mind, we are here to help you celebrate however you wish! Visit our website www.encoreazalea.com to learn more about these repeat-blooming azaleas, and take a look at our bloom times chart to assist in developing your garden plan.

- Getting ready: Four Seasons Hotel Westlake Village in Westlake Village, CA (bride and bride)
- Ceremony and reception: Calamigos Ranch in Malibu, CA
Wedding photos at Calamigos Ranch:
After capturing Christmas and Nancy's e-session at the Los Angeles County Fair back in 2013, I was really excited to connect with them again as their wedding photographer at Calamigos Ranch. This sprawling mountain estate in Malibu is one of my favorite wedding venues, and it was an absolute pleasure to travel back there to capture this wedding at Calamigos Ranch.
Getting ready photos at the Four Seasons Hotel Westlake Village:
The day all started at the Four Seasons Hotel Westlake Village where the two brides were getting ready in separate suites. In addition to creative shots of their hair and makeup being done, surrounded by their bridal party, there were also some touching moments to capture between Nancy and her daughter as they added the final touches to her flower girl outfit.
Pre-ceremony portraits at the Four Seasons Hotel Westlake Village and Calamigos Ranch:
Nancy and Christmas had decided to do a first look session at the Four Seasons Hotel, and we found a quiet hallway to stage this beautiful moment, filled with raw emotion. We then drove over to Calamigos Ranch where they had scheduled in a short couple portrait session before the wedding ceremony itself, with Nancy dressed in a white, two-piece outfit and Christmas in a beautiful black dress.
Ceremony photos at Calamigos Ranch:
Nancy stood hand-in-hand with her daughter as she watched Christmas walk down the aisle at the Redwood Room venue. The ceremony was the perfect opportunity to capture their emotional reactions as they exchanged vows, as well as a few candid shots of their wedding guests watching on.
Post-ceremony portraits at Calamigos Ranch:
As it was winter, afternoon turned to evening fast, and we used the romantic lighting around Calamigos Ranch and The Redwood Room for a nighttime portrait session before the reception started.
Reception photos at Calamigos Ranch:
From the first dance between the two brides, to the cake cutting ceremony where they fed each other beautifully-decorated cupcakes, Nancy and Christmas's reception was full of love, laughter and celebration. The Redwood Room has a rustic, vintage-style charm, and its tables were beautifully-decorated with floral arrangements that fitted in with the brides' purple-tinged theme. This not only made for beautiful reception photo backdrops, but also complemented the bridesmaids dresses.
Wedding photos at Calamigos Ranch:
It's been a pleasure getting to know Nancy and Christmas over the past year and having the opportunity to photograph their same-sex wedding, and I wish them and their daughter all the best for their future life together.

According to estimates of various organizations around the world, one out of four is at risk of dying from non-communicable diseases like diabetes, cardiovascular disorders, cancer, chronic respiratory problems, etc.
These diseases, also known as lifestyle disorders, are a grave issue because they have no complete cure. If you get them, they stay with your whole life. If these diseases can't be cured, then they surely could be prevented.
Ayurveda Principle – Prevention is better than cure
As the saying goes, 'Prevention is better than cure,' Ayurveda perceived the significance of prevention thousands of years ago, which now increasingly is considered as the only way to avoid many illnesses prevalent today.
Ayurveda gives equal importance to the maintenance of health by prevention of ailments and in curing them. The concept of Ayurvedic preventive medicine is called as Swasthavritta.
It means establishing peace of body, mind, and spirit along with social well-being by following healthy regimens.
Ayurvedic offers numerous preventive measures in the form of various dietary regulations, daily routine, seasonal regimens, personal hygiene, rules of proper social conduct, detoxification & purification therapies, spiritual regimens and the most important, avoiding lifestyle errors to prevent any disorder.
Why Ayurveda Focuses on Prevention?
In Ayurveda, preservation of health and prevention from disease is given more importance than treatment of disease. That is why prevention & promotion of health is the first aim of Ayurveda while the second is to treat diseases.
Ayurveda calls a person healthy when he is free from morbidity and is happy mentally, socially, and spiritually. This approach is much needed in today's stress-filled world.
Therefore, the world is looking towards this traditional medicine to reduce the burden of diseases and for a healthy living.
Ayurveda says that a happy and healthy life is a pre-requisite to achieve the goals of life. But how to stay utterly untouched from illness when there are significant variations in daily regimen and environment? How to stay healthy?
To overcome this problem, Ayurveda advocates individual to observe certain routine activities. These regimens are suitable & beneficial for everyone and could be adopted as per place, time, and situation.
In several Ayurvedic texts, there is a description of proper daily & seasonal regimens and code of ethics.
In addition to this, specific recommendations for the appropriate intake of food, sleep, and proper behavior to maintain a good life have been elaborated.
So, prevention is done on two levels ahara (diet) and vihara(lifestyle). Let's look at these health regimes one by one.
Suggested read –Ayurveda and Yoga – Find the sublime connection
Ahara – What's the right diet?
Ayurvedic concept of nutrition is firmly based on the tenet "The kitchen is the pharmacy, and the pharmacy is the kitchen." The food itself is considered as medicine. A nourishing diet works wonders and keeps us healthy as well as away from pills.
Nowadays, our dietary habits have changed drastically. Our food mainly consists of processed and instant foods. Chemicals, preservatives, harmful colors, taste enhancers have become an integral part of our diet, which does not prevent us from disease but health.
Ayurveda says that food is the basis of our life. Proper diet helps promote immunity and body growth. Therefore, fresh and chemical–free food is needed for prevention from diseases arising due to faulty dietary habits.
Ayurveda stresses on a diet having all six rasas (tastes) because each rasa by its qualities and actions balances Tridoshas. Also, food should be taken according to the need and availability and not as per any diet plan because everyone has different Prakriti (body constitution).
Not only the right food is the key to health but also the way we eat food. Ayurveda mentions various methods of food preparation and rules to be followed while taking a meal. To maintain health and prevent diseases, we should also follow a few rules, such as:
- The fresh, warm and unctuous meal should be taken
- The meal should be taken as per your appetite and only when you are hungry
- The meal should not have foods which are incompatible like milk and fish
- The meal should be eaten at a favorable place
- While eating do not hurry, laugh, talk and focus entirely on your food
- You should eat food depending on your digestive capacity & after considering if it is suitable for you or not
All these advises mentioned in Ayurveda should be followed with due regard to diet to have a healthy and long life.
Vihara – What's the right way of living?
Ayurveda encompasses various preventive measures which can be adopted in our daily life. These regimens help us to maintain our physical, mental, social as well as spiritual health.
Also, it asks us to be aware of our surrounding conditions and always prevents ourselves from any vulnerable events such as accidents and attacks. It recommends protecting our vital points called as Marma.
The three most important vital points heart, head, and bladder should be protected if possible from any injury to prevent death. The protection of 107 vital points in our body is essential for a healthy living. Any injury to them can leave us handicapped and can even lead to death.
The factors which could be controlled to prevent us from advancing towards disorder are described here one by one.
Dinacarya – Daily routine of a healthy person
Our daily routine decides our state of health. Dinacarya is the daily ritual of self-care. Ayurveda has designed this daily routine for a healthy person to connect us to our nature.
Today's busy lifestyle doesn't have any space for self-care, which is a matter of great concern. This altered lifestyle is proving hazardous to our health, and hence, there is an urgent need to incorporate these daily regimens as mentioned in Ayurvedic texts.
- A healthy person should arise from sleep early before sunrise
- After analyzing one's own body, he should get void of waste products
- Clean the teeth with the material having bitter, acrid and astringent tastes
- Clean the tongue with a flexible strip of metal or a plant twigs
- Use herbal medicine for cleaning nasal cavities, oral medication for gargling, inhale herbal smoke and chew betel leaves to kill oral bacteria and enhance digestion
- Massage body with oil particularly on head, ears, and soles
- Practice physical exercises as per body's capacity to increase muscle strength and increase stamina
- Massage with powdered drugs to dissolve away fat and clarify skin
- Take a bath with warm water
- Wear clean apparels, scents, ornaments
- Dressing and cutting of hair, beard, nails, etc. should be done regularly
- Use comfortable footwear to protect feet
Ritucarya – Seasonal codes of living
Doshas accumulating in a particular season are to be pacified in that season itself to prevent their further progression into the aggravated state which is the sole cause of disease.
Ayurveda through ritucarya teaches us to modify our diet & lifestyle in response to the change in climatic conditions. Ritucarya is an essential preventive measure to protect ourselves from various seasonal and lifestyle disorders.
The entire year is divided into six seasons late winter, spring, summer, rain, autumn, and early winter. With each season the state of doshas keep changing, and hence Ayurveda describes dietetics and regimens for each season.
- take unctuous, sour, salty and heavy diet
- use honey, milk, cane juice, fat, oil, new rice, hot water
- do massage, apply oil on the head
- avoid light food and underfeeding
- avoid cold diet and drinks
- perform emetic therapy
- avoid heavy, unctuous, sour and sweet diet
- avoid sleeping during the day
- take barley, wheat, and meat
- take sweet, cold, liquid and oily diet
- take ghee, rice, milk, plenty of water
- avoid salty, sour, acrid, hot and spicy food
- avoid physical exercise
- can sleep during the daytime
Rainy season
- avoid daytime sleep, excessive exercise, moving in sun
- use honey in diet and drinks
- take sour, salty and unctuous food
- take barley, wheat, rice, vegetable, and meat soup
- drink boiled and cooled water mixed with little honey
- wear light & clean apparel
- choose sweet, light, cold and bitter foods
- take rice, meat, barley, wheat
- use ghee prepared with bitter medicines
- perform purgation and bloodletting therapies
- avoid taking a sunbath, fat, oil, curd, alkaline food preparations
- avoid daytime sleep, frost, and winds
Sadvritta – Rules of Good Conduct
Ayurveda mentions several rules to maintain the mental and social aspect of healthy individuals. Sadvritta is a range of social behavior and ethical code of conduct towards oneself and one's surroundings.
Sadvritta builds up the personality of a person and brings happiness & contentment. It includes various mental, social, emotional and ethical rules which should be followed by everyone,
- Lend as much help as possible to poor, sick and mentally ill
- Worship God, teachers, old ones, physicians, rulers and guests
- Always talk of relevant topics in a pleasing manner
- Never trust anybody excessively or be too suspicious
- Never reveal enmity towards anybody
- Never put much strain on the senses nor let them remain inert
- Always have empathy and oneness towards everyone
- Stay even minded in both prosperity and calamity
- Always develop positive insights into other minds
- Avoid keeping knees in an upright position for long
- Never cast the eyes continuously upon tiny objects
- Do not sell, brew, offer and accept alcohol
- Follow the world experimentally
- Be compassionate, do charity and show selfless devotion to the cause of others
It is written in Ayurvedic texts that whoever will follow these etiquettes will attain longevity, health, prosperity and fame.
Adharaniya & Dharaniya Vega – Execution of Natural Urges
Vegas are natural urges and are usually involuntary in nature. They are inevitable for the maintenance of proper health. But if Vegas are habitually suppressed continuously, homeostasis gets disturbed and leads to a series of diseases.
These diseases may be seen to have no direct relation upon the system involved where the Vega is suppressed. As all urges are mainly managed by Vata dosha, their suppression causes vitiation of Vata, thereby leading to severe diseases.
The suppression of natural urges contributes highly in causing various disorders, yet this matter is never taken seriously. In today's fast-forward world, every person tries to suppress these urges to continue with work. But controlling urges gradually takes the form of severe diseases of which we are unaware.
To prevent such disease, Ayurveda stresses on non-suppression of such thirteen natural urges which we control at will at some point of time. It is clearly stated in Ayurvedic texts that these Vegas are not to be suppressed at any condition. Never suppress the urge of
- Flatus & belching
- Defecation
- Urination
- Thirst
- Hunger
- Sleep
- Sneezing
- Cough
- Panting
- Yawning
- Vomiting
- Ejaculation
- Tears
Not all the urges have got to be satisfied. There are some urges which need to be suppressed. Control of some psychological urges is necessary as they cause physical and socio-psychologically disturbances.
One desirous of well-being should suppress urges relating to rashness, greed, grief, fear, anger, vanity, shamelessness, jealousy, excessive attachment, speaking of harsh words, back-biting, lying, violence, adultery, theft, and other evil deeds.
Panchakarma – Prevention by Cleansing Therapy
Panchakarma is the line of treatment to eliminate the vitiated doshas from the body to purify the whole body and restores normal strength. These five-fold treatment procedures are:
- Emesis
- Purgation
- Enema with oil
- Enema with decoction
- Nasal cleansing / Blood-letting
This therapy is, however, more preventive importance than treatment has. Ayurveda introduced this concept for promoting health. It is recommended that doshas accumulated in the body during the transitional phase between two seasons.
Vata, Pitta & Kapha in a healthy person are to be expelled by elimination therapy in the months of July-August, October-November, and March-April, respectively. Panchakarma is to be administered in this appropriate time before accumulated doshas start a disease.
Swasthya Urjaskar – Invigorator of Health
Ayurveda offers two types of medicines. Some tone up the health of a healthy person, and some others remove the ailments of a patient. The medication of the first category is mostly Rasayana (rejuvenators) & Vajikarana (Aphrodisiacs).
Rasayana is a collection of drugs, diet, and regimens which promote longevity by preventing aging and diseases. Over time the process of wear and tear increases in the body, which results in exposure of the body to several illnesses. This ultimately leads to death.
Rasayana by nourishing cells & tissues of the body and enhancing their immunity arrests this process of decay and prevents the formation of disease. Apart from preventive utility of this therapy, even patients who are already suffering from diseases can derive benefits from this.
Rasayana drugs such as Amalaki, Ashwagandha, Guduchi, Pippali, Bala, Bhallatak, Shankhapushpi, Shilajatu etc. are commonly used. Daily use of milk and ghee (clarified butter) also acts as Rasayana.
A favorite example of Rasayana is Chyawanprash, which is still very much in vogue.
These drugs are anti-oxidant, anti-aging, and immuno-modulator. Few of them also promote intellect and cure several specific diseases.
Vajikarana therapy aims at procreating healthy progeny for a healthy society. This therapy improves the potency and virility of humans. Thus it prevents the dysfunctioning of reproductive organs and maintains health.
Vajikarana drugs are needed to be taken regularly even though an individual is free from diseases. These drugs help in the maintenance of an excellent physique.
Prevention – Need of the Hour
On looking at the current trends of incurable disorders, modern sciences also have begun emphasizing on prevention through dietary and lifestyle modifications.
But Ayurveda since time immemorial focussed on prevention rather than cure. So, we must reap the benefits of the solutions offered by this ancient science.
Preventive methods mentioned by Ayurveda are easy to follow in our day to day life and are in accordance with environmental variations.
Sadvritta, an essential regimen granted by Ayurveda is much needed in today's society for a happy social and mental health. For prevention, it is crucial that bad dietary & behavioral habits should be given up gradually and should adopt healthy habits.
These guidelines are undoubtedly useful for humanity. Such unique rules by Ayurveda outscore conventional medicines when it comes to the prevention and management of non-communicable or lifestyle disorders.

48 Comments on "Self Deprecation Game"
This is why I read you – humility, truth and fucking funny stuff
Part A) Yeah, well we're men too – and sometimes we just gotta rage. Don't know a thing about PTSD – but I'm not afraid to flare if someone crosses my boundaries – it shows power to both women and other men.
Part B)you owe my company a new monitor – I spewed coffee over the Cheerio line – beyond classic
Back before I changed my ways this method worked on me consistently. Learned real fast the guys that claimed to be hung like a field mouse most definitely were not…
"there's NOTHING exceptional about my looks"
If it helps Danny, I think that your looks are exceptional. The glasses just complete the special look (to perfection). I'll leave that thought there mate. 😉
I remember your story of telling a girl that you'd been cooking since you were tall enough to see over the cooker. "When was that?", she asked. Yesterday, was the answer. CLASSIC stuff
thank you. are you a dude or chick? please take no offense. lol.
Which would give me a better chance with you, big-boy? 😉
(male BTW)
(and no offense taken)
so I've heard, from a surprising number of sources.
I'm guessing that you wearing BCG is a kindness that you show to women, otherwise you'd need to carry a shitty stick to beat the hordes of desperate women back. You're all heart
Yeah, heard that too…stay up
No need for apologies about last night's post. Your loyal readers know someone pressed the "do not fuck with" button. But why the depressing picture of the NAS JAX paper with the female leadership shit? Brings back the dark thoughts about possible female infantry commanders. What a mess.
because i didn't want to do a separate post about it. mind if i run my own site SB? lol.
IDK if it is PTSD. Ive not been in military or war. But I hit the rage button instantly. Think it's a testosterone thing. I am not trying to belittle PTSD, which is likely 10x worse than what I have.
I'm not too sure about the self dep angle. It only works if the rest of your gig is confident. A loser with no frame will no mileage out of self dep humor. THe losers get better tingles by acting alpha. Like a 100 pound weenie flexing or doing some other jock move. Contrast is the key. Contrast and the awareness to work it. Girls love to be shown some range of frame and contrasts.
Next week on THE REAL BLOGGERS OF THE MANOSPHERE:
Danny is admitted to inpatient treatment for paste addiction. CAN HE DEFEAT HIS DEMONS?
Deti drama culminates in a libelous thirty bullet-point list on why he will NEVER start his own blog. CAN THEY FORGIVE?
M3 is discovered naked in a ditch in Saskatchewan with amnesia and a strange tattoo. WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
Roosh joins the Hare Krishnas; is worshipped as a god. BUT FOR HOW LONG?
Slayer. Hells yes.
1st: love the blog and the posts. screw that ****** you were raging about. not worth it. the site is much appreciated for us 20 somethings still figuring some shit out.
2nd: I love me some self deprecating humor. the only blade i find on that knife that can cut the other way is if a girl doesnt "get" the "aww shucks" side and thinks you are being insecure. SDH has to be obvious and blatant IMO.
3rd: pard the french, but fuck this:
I learned about SDH on accident a long time ago, and purely by accident. Another guy was trying to trash talk me in front of some women, but I already had a good looking gf, so I didn't really care that much. So when he threw out something like "dude here's packing the 3 inch pecker", I responded with "HEY!!! It may be short, but it's damn skinny…….wait a minute".
Every girl there started talking about how i had to be hung like a horse.
"No, I'm hung like a bull….frog".
nice. lol.
[…] Self Deprecation Game […]
Don't go to jail little brother, plan a better op
Keep 'em comin Danny.
There's an ex-marine I follow on Youtube. He posts up games in Arma 2. Every so often, he says something about when his 'killswitch turns on'. Going from green to red.
He also posted a couple vids of an Airsoft indoor competition. And how it's a good handle on curbing PTSD.

The popular rapper and entrepreneur, Kanye West recently dozed off while watching a 25-mins performance of Frozen at his daughter's second birthday celebrations that held in Disneyland.
According to a report on TMZ, Kanye must have been exhausted from walking around the park for North West's birthday as he was caught sleeping all through the sing-along show.
The report further claimed that a Disney employee, who played the part of Elsa in the sing-along noticed Kanye resting his eyes, and took a picture which she shared on Facebook and Twitter with the caption, 'when you perform for the Kardashian family for North's birthday…and Kanye sleeps through the whole show.'
Other members of the Kardashians were present including Tyga and his two years old son, King.

Couture Contouring Palette
Item No 3614270849541
Colour: 01 Golden
Added to Your Shopping Bag
YSL's Couture Contouring Palette takes classic principles of couture and applies them to the face. Much like crafting a beautiful garment, this sculpting palette uses light and shadow to softly shape and define the face. Powders are matte and finely-milled, allowing for a flawless application without any harsh lines. Choose from two variations: the Golden palette, perfect for those with yellow undertones, or the Rosy palette, best suited for pinkier complexions.
How to Use: Use the deeper shade to add buildable definition on areas of the face you would like to slim and define, such as the hollows of the cheeks, jawline and sides of the nose. The lighter shade illuminates areas of the face you wish to highlight, including the tops of cheekbones, under the brow and the cupids bow. 6.8 g

These are the cinnamon rolls I posted on my instagram story at Christmas. Quite a few of you have asked for the recipe and I was meaning to post it over Christmas and, well, that never happened! Family took precedence, I'm afraid…
Anyway, I'm sure you are all getting quite bored of your New Year's Resolutions, so I thought I would help you out with a well deserved treat, after two whole weeks of deprivation!
This recipe makes approx. 24 cinnamon rolls. Start well in advance, as the dough needs to rise twice and the rolls are best eaten the day they are baked! They also freeze well – scroll to the end for details.*
100 ml cold water
5 tablespoons cornstarch*
1 vanilla pod*
500 ml milk
5 tablespoons sugar
120 g butter
2 packs dried yeast
2 eggs
1 teaspoon salt
800 g flour
*You can use 2 packs of vanilla pudding powder instead of cornstarch and vanilla pod, if you prefer!
150 g very soft butter
250 g brown sugar
5 tsp. cinnamon
For the glaze:
Approx. 150 g icing sugar sifted
Approx. 3 to 4 tablespoons milk or cream
Heat the milk and vanilla pod (if using) in a saucepan. Mix the cornstarch with the cold water (or vanilla pudding powder, if using). Take the pan off the heat and whisk the starch mix into the milk until it thickens. Stir in the butter until it has melted, add eggs and sugar and mix until fully combined. Leave to cool and when it is hand-warm, stir in the dried yeast.
Sieve flour into a stand mixer (or use a bowl and an electronic hand whisk, with dough attachment) add the pudding mixture and combine until you have a fairly moist dough. Leave the dough in a large bowl covered with clingfilm (plastic wrap) for approx. 2 hrs. or until it has doubled in size.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and cut it in half. Roll out one half of the dough to about 5 mm thick. Spread half of the softened butter on the dough (the butter should be as soft as whipped cream, not completely liquid) and scatter on half of the sugar and cinnamon. Roll it up tightly and slice it up into pieces of about 5 cm. Repeat this process with the second half of the dough.
Place baking paper on a baking sheet and place the rolls closely to each other, but not touching. They should all fit on one baking sheet. Let them rise for a further 30 mins. By which time they should be touching each other lightly (this is good because it prevents them from unrolling in the oven).
Bake for 20 mins. in a pre-heated oven at 200°C.
Cover with foil after 10 mins. if they start looking too brown.
Glaze method:
Mix icing sugar and milk or cream until smooth. Amounts are a suggestion only – add more milk if you like your glaze runnier. Make more or less icing depending on how much you like.
Enjoy! And do let me know how you got on in the comments!
*Details on freezing: I froze mine after baking. Once cool, I popped them in a Tupperware and put them in the freezer. I thawed them at room temperature and heated them in the oven at 180°C for about 8 mins. Glaze them while they are still warm and serve.

This discussion originally took place on https://www.facebook.com/johnpatrickcontini.
Original Post 7/9/13
Contini – #ZimmermanJudge rules that the #marijuana which was found in #TrayvonMartin"toxicology" (i.e., in his blood that night, according to the Medical Examiner) now comes into #evidence given the #relevance … and it's purportedly "relevant," insofar as #Zimmerman had told the police/dispatcher that #TravonMartin appeared to be on #drugs http://www.JohnContini/ [your thoughts re: the "relevancy" of the marijuana use?
O.F.- I'm not a marijuana smoker but I'm pretty sure it doesn't effect anyone to act in a violent manner.
D.M.- This has been a pretty rough trial. The jury should be permitted to weigh the signficance of the marijuana by the victim, particularly if this fact supports a defense theory. If anything, having the mother and father testify to confirm their son's voice was both cumulative and far more potentially prejudicial.
L.M.- Zimmerman acted recklessly probably out of either anger or a big ego. He should have just stayed put. I hope he doesn't get off and pays for his stupidity
R.T.- It shows that TM was no Sunday morning choir boy, that he's willing to break laws of Florida more than anything goes to his character
B.T.- I agree with Oscar. I also believe, but could be mistaken, that if the person who caused the death under the stand your ground law, cannot use this as a defense if they were the aggressor or was breaking the law at the time of the incident. George was the aggressor by stalking this kid under the assumption Trayvon was a hoodlum. As far as the pot, I would hope an expert witness would be called to dispute any allegations that smoking pot creates aggression.
L.M.- I agree Osha that marijuana use usually melted a person not make them violent. He may not have been a choir boy but he was not breaking the law. Zimmerman is the one with issues it seems.
B.T.- Zimmerman was a wannabe cop, and its apparent he wouldn't have been a good one.
Contini – Peter, I pray there are NO riots, as this will show that the black community (which is the community of folks to whom many people ascribe this proclivity to "riot") respects the rule of law. To riot over a verdict that is perceived to be unfair, is to debase oneself, and stoop beneath those higher levels of maturity and emotional sobriety, decency, civility and respect achieved by this very same community. Does anyone ask if the "white community" will "riot" if the verdict goes against Zimmerman? Nobody asks this ridiculous question, and that is because you expect civility from white citizens — so why can't we expect this same civility from the black community — from every community" of every race. We do, actually, and naturally, we should expect this of ALL people, regardless of race; and if anyone of any race acts outsider the law in the wake of the verdict. They should be summarily arrested and prosecuted
F.L.- case should never have come to trial. if riots occur, shame on the black community; we cannot have rule of law and fear of riots from verdicts at the same time.
S.H.- Appeared to be on drugs? How would he know. This is at night time? Did he see his eyes or something that close in the dark? Maybe if he could smell it … but appeared to be on drugs. I dont buy that at all.
B.P.- I think they said that Trayvon had about a concentration of 9 ng/ml ( nanograms per ml ). There was no way he was high on marijuana when he was murdered at that level. The bottom detection level is around 15 ng/ml and a heavy user can have 800 ng/ml in their blood. That idiot Zimmerman said that Trayvon was "high" and the defense is using this as a justification that perhaps he (Trayvon) had his judgement impaired thus he made a "bad" decision and attacked poor innocent law abiding Zimmerman. It is just a way to smear Trayvons' character.
Source: http://www.uncommonforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=48772
From the article: Almost all commercial drug tests use a competition based immunoassay that employs antibodies to TCH-COOH as the detection mechanism. The primary cutoff established and recommended by the government has been 50 ng/ml for these tests. If a positive is confirmed in these tests there is usually a confirmation test using GC/MS (Gas chromotagraphy, Mass Spectrometry) which typically have cutoffs of 15 ng/ml. These two tests together are the gold standard for detection.
Also from the article: In one profile of a very heavy user who was tested on a daily basis over 110 days showed a high level of variability in the resulting level in the urine. That user started out at 800 ng/ml and he first passed the 50 ng/ml cutoff at Day 41. At Day 51 that same user was back up to 100 ng/ml but then was consistently lower than 50 ng/ml from day 55 until Day 110 when no more metabolites could be detected.
B.P.- The prosecution should argue that if Trayvon had smoked pot that day then he never got "high" – not at 9 ng/ml.
Contini– Bruce, Bill Cosby and many, many other successful men and women in the black community consider themselves just as much a fabric of the larger American community and they preach against white apologists and the kind of pandering you just did to the reactionary, base and bigoted street thinking, ie, shamefully using historical prejudice and injustice to advance violence even today in the age of entitlements and food stamps and section 8 and every other program designed to correct the disparity and historical injustice you describe — and now you want to add legitimized rioting and violence to that list of entitlements? Bruce, is this you?
If the black community riots I'm all for bringing out the truncheons and bashing some heads to restore order. White people though need to walk in someone elses shoes and try to understand the historical reasons why some things exist. I know that my bluntness makes people uncomfortable but I say what needs to be said. Honesty and not political correctness will solve our problems. This is a major reason why the republican party is failing politically these days. There are plenty of conservative black and brown people that would join the party if they felt they were actually wanted. They work hard, they love their families, and they want their kids to do better then they did. Our dialog needs a refreshing honesty.
Contini– So Bruce, tell us what you really think You don't leave anyone guessing.
F.L.- Zimmerman's shirt was wet – indicating he was on his back. Was it tea or watermelon juice that Martin bought – have read he'd purchased 2 of the necessary ingredients for "trank." This is a media-made cause celebre that bumped into a scapegoat who had championed black causes. Does anyone remember Al Sharpton and Tawana Brawley? Manslaughter maybe; murder, no.

Last month my 'Exposed!' Newsletter featured 'Wise Words from Working Photographers'.
Readers sent in more favourite quotes. John Milleker from Baltimore, USA offered his version of Dave's quote posted yesterday. He says:
"Study those who are better than you but hang out with those who aren't."
John explains:
"The quote 'Hang out with those who are better than you.' really got me thinking. I really believe the opposite or at least an adjustment of the rule.
I think I'm able to sum it up with this: 'Study those who are better than you but hang out with those who aren't.'
At least where I am now in my photography, I have more times been inspired by a beginning photographer than the big named photographers we have grown to love. Sure, there are plenty of big names that I follow and admire but something happens when we grow in our photography. A lot of us move so far ahead that we forget the simple and aim for the complicated.
A beginner's eye can remind us of the things that excited us when we first started out and their questions can get us thinking again about the hows and whys we do things the way we do.
For anyone at a level above beginner or hobbyist, I encourage you to attend or set up a meet-up, perhaps hold a workshop or a class. It's a win-win situation. The beginners learn from a more advanced photographer and you'll surround yourself with fresh minds.
Thanks John!

Insatia's energetic, melodic and sophisticated Phoenix Aflame is turning heads in the power metal scene. This is a band on the rise. From the soaring declaration of guilt in "Act Of Mercy" to the formidable march of "We Are The Grey", this band show that symphonic metal can be all-embracing to different facets of life while still keeping in line with the love for the dramatic that is a key to the genre.
Today we are happy to welcome vocalist Zoë Marie Federoff to this edition of our new Formative Years column with her selections of five albums that changed her life. But first you should also see the band's video for "Memory Of A Sapphire"!
Now that you have been rocked, for Zoe's album picks see BELOW.
If I had to pick one album to listen to forever, it would be The Black Halo by Kamelot. The songwriting strength and the emotive voice of Roy Khan just get to me no matter what mood I'm in. While there isn't a weak track on the whole album, my favorite is "Memento Mori" – I'm moved to tears at times by it and beyond being musically haunting, the lyrical content is just stunning. I'm a huge fan of Tommy Karevik and Kamelot today, but this older album with Khan remains my favorite.
We Are The Void by Dark Tranquility is my "walk around the house in a bathrobe sipping Irish coffee" album. For whatever reason, this album seriously mellows me out and makes me want to stay home and soak in all the rich melodies and textures going on. I've literally chosen to stay in listening to this album over going out to the club with my friends, and I'm sure when they read this they'll realize I was lying about having a headache. Dark Tranquility represents the height of melodeath for me personally, and I'm proud to say I wake up every single morning to "The Fatalist" as my alarm song.
Once was the first Nightwish album I ever picked up, and the really cool thing about Once is that my dad, an old school metal head, fell in love with it right alongside me. He would be jamming "Dark Chest of Wonders" in his office and I'd be jamming it in my headphones at school. This went on for months- the soaring voice of Tarja Turunen, the textures and melody structures going on in pieces like "The Siren" – it was all incredibly enchanting for us. Later on in college while I was studying classical singing, a lot of my performance pieces would be Nightwish songs.
The first metal album I ever bought for myself with my own money was Mother Earth by Within Temptation. Besides the title track, it's got some chilling pieces like "Deceiver of Fools" and the ever-popular "Ice Queen" that propelled Within Temptation into the international spotlight once upon a time. I still can't get over the fact that Sharon is a self taught wonder-woman, and I admire her not just for being the first clean female vocalist I heard in metal, but also for being an out-and-proud mother to three beautiful children. Mother Earth is an amazing album from a band fronted by one of the coolest moms in the biz.
I'm quite partial to Design Your Universe by Epica since it came out my senior year of high school- the overall message of the album talked about shaping the world around you, and that was quite empowering to a young girl about to head into adult life. And I wasn't stingy when it came to sharing the music I loved with the people around me- after pushing it at the right people, Epica's cover of "The Imperial March" ended up being the song our local football team came out on the field to. People loved it! I got to meet the band shortly before my graduation and I was amazed at how sweet and friendly they all were, and while they've written brilliant albums since then, Design Your Universe will forever be my favorite.

Why The Immigrant Red Card Is Front And Center At This Jewish Community Center
By Rabbi Joanna Samuels
This past November, the day after the national election, and 15 years after I was ordained, I woke up to the fact that I am a rabbi. It was not as though I had forgotten, but it had not been a prominent aspect of my day-to-day work experience in some time. As the Executive Director of a large, multicultural, socio-economically diverse community center, my days are filled with program management, fundraising, and understanding government funding, A good day is spent supporting staff, setting vision, and holding the aspirations of connectedness across race, class, and religion. A more usual day is spent navigating an unexpected visit from the Department of Buildings.
But since the dark morning after the election, when I set up a coffee pot in our busy lobby and put a sign up that said "free coffee, free hugs".I have understood that my role is also a spiritual one and that the Center's job is a spiritual one, as well. Our collective work has become, in these months, the work of the best kinds of houses of worship: to comfort the frightened, to hold a narrative of hope, and to affirm the truth — persistently — that love, justice and human connection are the only way forward.
The coffee pot and the hugs were the opening gambit in making our center's lobby, and by extension, our whole building, a place that ministered to spiritual needs. Coffee and hugs were followed by, on January 20th, the unveiling of a large mural titled "We the People" that included the phrase, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." translated into Arabic, Hebrew, Spanish, and Chinese. On the Monday after inauguration, we invited our entire community to sign it in a powerful public ritual.
Our current exhibit features the Red Card, a public information project created by the Immigrant Legal Resource Center to inform people of their constitutional rights, regardless of immigration status. We worked with curator Rachel Libeskind to transform the Red Card (small index-card sized leaflets) into large fabric flags in 5 languages, which now hang in the entryway of our community center. In addition to the flags, we have the Red Cards themselves for people to take, as well as a wall of additional information about what steps people can take given the immediate threat to DACA.
Our aim is to inform, certainly. But it is also to affirm.
We want to affirm that our center is a place where our community can be safe. We serve a large number of recent immigrants, who have felt particularly vulnerable in the face of hateful and divisive political rhetoric.
We want to affirm that we, an organization founded by Jewish immigrants, stand together with those whose immigrant story is more recent, and whose foothold in this country feels less secure.
Finally, we want to affirm that this multi-faith multi-cultural community center that takes care of the body and the mind, also, with great love, can take care of the soul.
In a contemporary version of the central confessional prayer of Yom Kippur, we ask God's forgiveness for the sin of averting our eyes. Sometimes when we avert our eyes it is due to the shame of ignoring someone or something when we ought to be intervening. Other times, it is when our own fear or shame makes it too frightening to allow ourselves to be noticed. People who are seeing the Red Card at the Manny Cantor Center are both types of those people. They are people who need to be reminded that anti-immigrant rhetoric means that countless human beings are living in terror. These people need to be reminded to speak out and to act.
But the other, beloved souls who enter our sacred lobby every day, so afraid of lifting their eyes to meet this broken world, lest they be noticed, or found out, or deported, I hope they too are taking in the Red Card. I hope they are learning that they have rights. I hope they are seeing that they have allies. I hope they are, even for a moment, reminded that we are in this together, and we are all deserving of dignity, love, and justice.
If you are interested in displaying The Red Card in your community, please contact us at [email protected].
Rabbi Joanna Samuels serves as the Executive Director of Educational Alliance's Manny Cantor Center.

Manchester City's Frank Lampard that the return of Ivory Coast duo Yaya Toure and Wilfried Bony will be a huge boost to the club's title chase.
City won 1 out of 6 matches while Toure was at the African Nations Cup, including a humiliating loss at home to Middlesbrough in the FA Cup.
"He's a massive player for the club", Lampard said of Toure. "I could see that from afar when I was at Chelsea.
"You want him back in and hopefully that will give us a boost as a squad. Of course you miss a player like Yaya with his talent and his ability, and we've had a time where we lost quite a few games."
"Alongside Yaya coming back, we've got Bony arriving. We've seen what he's been doing at Swansea and he'll be a fantastic signing for the club.
"There's an air of confidence about him and he'll add to the squad."

The suspects are Udodirim Nwandu, William Enoch, Ezeudoh Onyebuchi and Friday Onuoha.
The commissioner of police in the state, Mr. Chris Ezike, who confirmed the arrests, said the suspects were apprehended by policemen on patrol around Mbom Afrata Ibeku in Umuahia, the state capital.
He said one automatic English-made double-barrelled gun, three Dane guns and 19 cartridges were recovered from the suspects.
Ezike said the suspects claimed to be hunters, adding that they would need to explain why they were in possession of prohibited firearms or be charged to Court.
Also in the command's custody are four suspected cult members, identified as Gabriel Ofordozie, 39; Lucky Nwoye, 27; Chukwudimma Mezeh, 30; and Abuchi Ezekwe, 30.
It was learnt that they were arrested following intelligence report received by police detectives attached to Ndiegoro Police Division in Aba. Six revolver pistols were said to have been recovered from the suspects.
The suspects however denied that they were members of any secret cults. They claimed that hardship forced them to become armed robbers.

The Monetary Council of the Hungarian National Bank (MNB) reduced the base rate by 15bp to 0.75% at a monthly policy meeting on June 23, marking the first rate cut since 2016.
The central bank's goal is to stimulate the economy, which is facing its worst crisis since 2008, benefit from disinflationary trends and the easing of volatility on global markets, analysts commented. The forint weakened on the news.
Rate-setters left the O/N deposit rate at -0.05% and the O/N and one-week collateralised loan rates at 1.85%. The O/N deposit rate and the collateralised loan rate mark the bottom and the top, respectively, of the central bank's interest rate corridor.
The MNB's rate-setting monetary council said in a statement that the move was a "fine-tuning measure" that "supports the maintenance of price stability and the recovery of economic growth". Central bank governor Gyorgy Matolcsy said this does not mark the beginning of a rate-cutting cycle.
The statement came as the bank released its quarterly inflation report in which it lifted the inflation forecast for 2020 and lowered its GDP growth estimate.
The central bank still sees growth of 0.3-2% this year, compared to an earlier estimate of 2-3%, which seems outrageously bullish to some analysts. Most analysts predict Hungary's GDP will contract by 4-5% this year after the pandemic hit key economic sectors like automotive production and tourism. The government forecasts a 3% decline.
The Monetary Council said strong disinflationary effects have appeared in the Hungarian economy due to the weaker external inflation environment and more muted domestic demand.
Following a temporary rise at the beginning of 2020, headline CPI quickly returned into the central bank's tolerance band before declining to its lower bound.
The MNB raised its forecasts for this year to 3.2-3.3%, up from the 2.6-2.8% in the March report. Inflation forecast for 2021 was lowered to 3.2-3.3% from the earlier estimate of 3.4-3.5%.
The tax-adjusted core inflation, seen as the bellwether of underlying inflationary trends, is expected to stand at 3.3-3.5% in 2020 and at 2.6-2.7% in 2021.
The central bank had to make decisions for the economy to take the expected jumpstart from Q3, MNB governor Gyorgy Matolcsy said at an online press conference after the decision. After a 2.2% growth in Q1 the Hungarian economy could have contracted by 7% y/y in the following quarter, Matolcsy said, explaining the base rate cut.
The aim is to make the business environment even more supportive, he said, adding that the MNB intended to signal to markets and central banks that it sees the base rate as important and that it has room for manoeuvre, he added.
Among the MNB's main goals, price stability, and the stability of the financial system has been preserved, and the third is to support the government's economic policy, he noted.
Investments are crucial for growth to start in Q3, so it is essential to keep the Hungarian investment rate at the 28-29% level it reached in the past years, said deputy governor Mihaly Patai.
The MNB is in the process of rethinking its bond purchase programme and its funding for growth scheme (NHP) to make them even more effective.
The MNB recently amended both programmes to improve access to fight the economic effects of the pandemic. Companies signed up for more than HUF100bn (€286mn) of low-interest loans. The MNB expects a dozen companies to issue bonds in excess of HUF200bn combined in Q3.
In related news, Marton Nagy, who surprisingly resigned from his post as deputy governor of the MNB on May 28, is set to become economic adviser to the prime minister, local media reported.
The forint traded at 350.6 to the euro after the decision was announced, softening from 348.7.

Download Innovative 6th form ideas (just in case you want to share it)
Howdy folks,
this is the powerpoint I based discussions on at Tomlinscote on Wednesday for a very interesting (well I would say that, wouldn't I!) session for Links into Languages. The ideas below were the ones added to my pink post-it learning wall- thanks for the contributions, one and all!
A big thank you as well to Alex Blagona, Nick Mair (blog, man, blog!!!) and Neil Jones for some fascinating discussions as to what constitutes creative MFL teaching.
One pupil sits with their back to the screen
- The rest of the class then describe what is on the screen for them to guess
Create a pack of cards with 5 to 10 conjugated verbs in every tense pupils have learnt.
- Students categorise into correct tenses into a timeline
- Play snap with the cards- snap for same tense
Mini-whiteboard game: students answer questions by writing answers on the board then showing them quickly to win points
The post-it (rizla) game- pupils write a famous character on a post-it and stick it on a peer's forehead. They then have to ask questions to find out who they all are!
Running dictation- the twist!
- Before doing the dictation, answer a series of questions based on the text outside the room
- After completing the running dictation, translate into English / create a summary
- THEN translate back into Spanish (either the translation or the summary), without now being able to see the Spanish dictation text
- Peer assess
Allow the pupils to create topic booklets to use as teaching materials for the following year
Create a newspaper
- you provide the headlines, they provide an article to accompany it
Give each group (3 or 4 pupils) a list of about 12 words in TL
- They then have 20 minutes to create a story to read out / act out to the rest of the class using all of these words

Parents Beware – be careful while attending your next little league game or practice. We all know that those participating in athletic activities assume the risks that those activities entail. But what about spectators or bystanders to athletic events? To what extent do they assume the risks of athletic events. On January 8th the First Department decided a case which parents may want to take note of – Roberts v Boys & Girls Republic, Inc., 2008 NY Slip Op 00073.
The plaintiff-mother was watching her son's little league team during a scrimmage game. She was injured when she strayed into the path of a bat being swung by another player taking a practice swing along the off-field side of a chain-link fence running parallel and adjacent to the field's third-base sideline. Had the accident not occurred, the player, upon the completion of his practice swings, would have passed through an opening in the fence near home plate to take his turn at bat. The Court found that the mother assumed the risk of her injuries and thus dismissed her action on a summary judgment motion. The Court found that the risk of being struck by a swung bat was perfectly obvious. It found that the area where the bats were being swung was "logically situated" to the game taking place on the field. It was marked with equipment, and was in continuous use by players for about the hour and a half that the plaintiff-mother was at the game. The Court stated that the area in question "was immediately adjacent to the field, discrete, obvious and avoidable by any reasonably wary spectator or bystander."
The Court noted that the plaintiff-mother had testified that she observed numerous children along the fence area swinging bats when she entered the ball field, and again observed such activity from the bleachers as she watched her son practice. In addition, shortly before the accident, when plaintiff returned from the bleachers to the area behind home plate, she passed by a group of players holding bats in the same area. Finally, there was testimony that the player whose bat hit the plaintiff began his fateful swing when plaintiff was still some 8 to 10 feet away. Thus, the Court concluded that the sideline on-deck area was open and obvious to the plaintiff and "as safe as it appeared to be."
The Court stated if athletic and recreational activities are to persist, "there must be tolerated a disparity between the level of safety that might be optimally or even reasonably achieved and that which the law mandates."

BELIZE CITY, Mon. July 27, 2015–The Ministry of Foreign Affairs called a press briefing at the Radisson Fort George Hotel this morning, as a preview to Tuesday night's forum dubbed, "Belize/Guatemala Relations: A Culture of Peace."
The forum, during what the Organization of American States (OAS) interestingly dubs "Belize-Guatemala week," comes only weeks after armed Guatemala Naval officers ordered a contingent of Belize Coast Guard officers off Sarstoon Island – squarely inside Belizean territory, and against the backdrop of resistance from Guatemala to Belize's long deferred decision to build a forward operating base (FOB) in the Sarstoon area.
That base, which should have been built more than seven years ago, is deemed necessary for national security purposes, and specifically to fight illegal fishing, drug and human trafficking, and illegal logging perpetrated by persons believed to be Guatemalan and Honduran nationals – a situation that has reportedly worsened because of relaxed surveillance in the area.
Belizean officials had said that Guatemala had insisted that no FOB should be established in the area, and that the status quo should remain until the territorial differendum is decided by the International Court of Justice (ICJ).
Additionally, the matter was to be discussed at the OAS later this month.
However, Guatemala has evidently stepped back from its hardline stance on the matter—but that is against the backdrop of Belize's concession to enter into a new joint regime for policing the area.
Today, Canciller Carlos Raúl Morales, Guatemala's Foreign Minister, told the media that Guatemala's objection to the construction of the new FOB was based on agreements between the two countries dating back to 2000, under a regime of confidence-building measures, under which he claimed the parties had agreed not to erect new military outposts in the border areas.
However, we checked those documents, dated 2003 and 2005, both signed by former Foreign Minister Assad Shoman, and we found absolutely nothing in those agreements to support Morales' claims.
To further probe into the matter, we spoke with Senator Lisa Shoman, ex-Foreign Minister in 2007 and 2008 who has been intimately involved in the Belize-Guatemala process, and she categorically told us that there was no such agreement.
Resistance to Belize's security presence on the border is not a new tactic by Guatemala. In fact, the Amandala had reported back in March 2010 that Belize's attempt to construct an observation post at Machaquilha in western Belize, on the Belize side of the border, to stave off similar illegal incursions by Guatemalans, was met with fierce resistance from officials in Guatemala, after protests from their nationals.
They accused Belize of "militarizing" the border.
Guatemala furthermore alleged that the conservation post was a political strategy to demarcate the border long ahead of the resolution of the case by the International Court of Justice (ICJ), according to Belize's then Ambassador to Guatemala, the late H.E. Alfredo Martinez.
This time around, the objection by the Guatemalans has been to Belize's move to establish a forward operating base in the Sarstoon area – an area over which Belize never ceded jurisdiction.
Senator Shoman tells us, though, that the decision to build the FOB was actually made under the administration of the Opposition People's United Party and they had, in fact, chosen the Sarstoon Island – the said location where the Guatemalan Navy approached the Belize Coast Guard and ordered them to leave.
According to Shoman, the decision to build the base on Sarstoon Island had been communicated back then to their Guatemalan counterparts, and she went further to say that building materials had once been moved to the island to start the construction of the base. She cited funding constraints as the reason why the base was not built.
Today, after Canciller Morales and Belize's current Foreign Affairs Minister, Wilfred "Sedi" Elrington, had their morning meeting, ahead of the press briefing, the two reportedly reached an accord.
Morales indicated that their objection was based on their understanding that Belize wanted to build a military outpost, but after having heard from Elrington, he now understands that it is a Coast Guard base – to which they do not object.
While Elrington declared that, "We will move forward and we will build the base… as soon as it is convenient to us," he did not specifically say how soon it would be erected.
Secondly, though, a new dimension is being added to the way law enforcement operations are carried out in the south of Belize.
Moralez announced that he and Elrington have agreed to work on "a protocol to have control of the Amatique Bay…"
The Amatique Bay is a vast area in the south of Belize, which also encompasses the coastline of Honduras and the Gulf of Honduras, where Belize had originally intended to focus its law enforcement efforts.
Previously, Belize and Guatemala have not engaged in a joint law enforcement regime for Belize's southern waters.
The 2003 and 2005 confidence building measures set out procedures only for joint military operations along Belize's western border with Guatemala.
After today's press conference, Morales and Elrington rushed over to a lunch meeting with the 20 countries which constitute the Group of Friends, who will be asked to give their financial support to another OAS border office at Santa Cruz and Jalacte in the Toledo District.

You can apply IP filtering to application clients, node clients, or transport clients, in addition to other nodes that are attempting to join the cluster.
If a node's IP address is on the blacklist, Shield will still allow the connection to Elasticsearch. The connection will be dropped immediately, and no requests will be processed.
Elasticsearch installations are not designed to be publicly accessible over the Internet. IP Filtering and the other security capabilities of Shield do not change this condition.
Enabling IP filteringedit
Shield features an access control feature that allows or rejects hosts, domains, or subnets.
You configure IP filtering by specifying the
shield.transport.filter.allow and
shield.transport.filter.deny settings in in
elasticsearch.yml. Allow rules take prececence over the deny rules.
Example 1. Allow/Deny Statement Priority.
shield.transport.filter.allow: "192.168.0.1" shield.transport.filter.deny: "192.168.0.0/24"
_all keyword denies all connections that are not explicitly allowed earlier in the file.
Example 2.
_all Keyword Usage.
shield.transport.filter.allow: [ "192.168.0.1", "192.168.0.2", "192.168.0.3", "192.168.0.4" ] shield.transport.filter.deny: _all
IP Filtering configuration files support IPv6 addresses.
Example 3. IPv6 Filtering.
shield.transport.filter.allow: "2001:0db8:1234::/48" shield.transport.filter.deny: "1234:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334"
Shield supports hostname filtering when DNS lookups are available.
Example 4. Hostname Filtering.
shield.transport.filter.allow: localhost shield.transport.filter.deny: '*.google.com'
Disabling IP Filteringedit
Disabling IP filtering can slightly improve performance under some conditions. To disable IP filtering entirely, set the
value of the
shield.transport.filter.enabled attribute in the
elasticsearch.yml configuration file to
Example 5. Disabled IP Filtering.
shield.transport.filter.enabled: false
You can also disable IP filtering for the transport protocol but enable it for HTTP only like this
Example 6. Enable HTTP based IP Filtering.
shield.transport.filter.enabled: false shield.http.filter.enabled: true
Specifying TCP transport profilesedit
In order to support bindings on multiple host, you can specify the profile name as a prefix in order to allow/deny based on profiles
Example 7. Profile based filtering.
shield.transport.filter.allow: 172.16.0.0/24 shield.transport.filter.deny: _all transport.profiles.client.shield.filter.allow: 192.168.0.0/24 transport.profiles.client.shield.filter.deny: _all
Note: When you do not specify a profile,
default is used automatically.
HTTP Filteringedit
You may want to have different filtering between the transport and HTTP protocol
Example 8. HTTP only filtering.
shield.transport.filter.allow: localhost shield.transport.filter.deny: '*.google.com' shield.http.filter.allow: 172.16.0.0/16 shield.http.filter.deny: _all
Dynamically updating ip filter settings [1.1.0] Added in 1.1.0. edit
In case of running in an environment with highly dynamic IP addresses like cloud based hosting it is very hard to know the IP addresses upfront when provisioning a machine. Instead of changing the configuration file and restarting the node, you can use the Cluster Update Settings API like this
curl -XPUT localhost:9200/_cluster/settings -d '{ "persistent" : { "shield.transport.filter.allow" : "172.16.0.0/24" } }'
You can also disable filtering completely setting
shield.transport.filter.enabled like this
curl -XPUT localhost:9200/_cluster/settings -d '{ "persistent" : { "shield.transport.filter.enabled" : false } }'
In order to not lock yourself out, the default bound transport address will never be denied. This means you can always SSH into a system and use curl to apply changes.

Stronghold Games Annouces the Upcoming Release of The Golden Ages!
The Golden Ages is a euro game based on civilization building. The game was designed by Luigi Ferrini and originally published by Ergo Ludo Editions for Essen Spiel 2014. It features artwork by Alexandre Roche, the artist behind Jaipur, Bruxelles 1893, and Carson City. Stronghold Games has licensed The Golden Ages and has set a worldwide release for October 2015.
In the game you'll guide your people through 4 ages by developing technology, art, buildings, and wonders, but building up isn't the only way a civilization thrives. You'll also need to expand! Your military can test its might, as you claim foreign lands or defend your own. Whoever creates the most advanced civilization (collects the most points) wins.
"The release of The Golden Ages underscores one of the core philosophies at Stronghold Games", said Stephen Buonocore, President of Stronghold Games. "We continue to publish great games from Europe, as well as support our existing internal game lines. We are excited to be working on this project with the fine company, Ergo Ludo Editions."
Jess: The MSRP for The Golden Ages will be $59.95, but we anticipate there will be a discounted pre-order as the game gets close to release.

Let's admit it! We all find it hard to stick to the good and healthy habits and no matter how hard we try to eat healthy, exercise and sleep well, we end up breaking the rules, shut down the nagging voice in the back of our minds and just do all the unhealthy things again and again!
Unfortunately, by doing this, we tend to put our bodies and overall health at risk. If you do the same, then, it's time to stop and be willing to make a change and take good care of your health.

"Φόρος Τιμής Στον Γκρέκο" by Βαγγέλης Παπαθανασίου - album profile
+ notes
- close
Foros Timis Ston Greco (Φόρος Τιμής Στον Γκρέκο, lit. A Tribute to El Greco) is a classical album by Greek electronic composer and artist Vangelis (as Vangelis Papathanassiou/Βαγγέλης Παπαθανασίου). The title is an allusion to the man who inspired the composition, Dominikos Theotokópoulos (Δομήνικος Θεοτοκόπουλος, 1541–1614), the Cretan-born painter and sculptor better known as El Greco. The album was published in 1995 as a limited edition of 3,000 CD-audios and sold exclusively at the National Art Gallery and Alexandros Soutzos Museum in Athens, Greece, which was raising funds to buy El Greco's painting "St. Peter". The luxurious packaging, in a dark-blue velvet box, included a 128-page coffee-table book, about El Greco's paintings, dedicated to Vangelis, and a digipack containing the CD. Each CD carried Vangelis' personal signature and a unique serial number. For such a special edition, the price was 30,000 drachmas (US $127), or, adjusted for Greek inflation as of 2006[update], 45,000 drachmas (€132/$176). Vangelis composed and arranged the album, and performed all the instruments, accompanied by a choir conducted by Ivan Cassar. The music is in a Byzantine style yet sounding contemporary due to his use of synthesizers. Soprano Montserrat Caballé and tenor Konstantinos Paliatsaras make guest appearances on one movement each. The image on the album is a section of "Madonna and Child with St. Martina and St. Agnes" by El Greco. A regular edition of the album was released worldwide in 1998, with three new tracks and a new title: El Greco.
