Contesting Religion
The Media Dynamics of Cultural Conflicts in Scandinavia
Berlin, Germany:De Gruyter, July2018.368 pages.$28.99.Paperback.ISBN9783110501711.For other formats: Link to Publisher's Website.
As Scandinavian societies experience increased ethno-religious diversity, their Christian-Lutheran heritage and strong traditions of welfare and solidarity are being challenged and contested. This book explores conflicts related to religion as they play out in public broadcasting, social media, local civic settings, and schools. It examines how the mediatization of these controversies influences people's engagement with contested issues about religion, and redraws the boundaries between inclusion and exclusion.

To the tenants who are moving into a new home – congratulations and we're glad you're here! Specialized Property Management is happy to welcome you to your new home, and we want to do everything we can to ensure your rental experience with us is a positive and comfortable one.
Because there are a lot of questions and a lot of details that are often involved in a move, we want to provide you with an easy resource as you're preparing to move and once you've already started settling into your new home.
Here are a few items to help ensure a successful stay – please be sure to contact us at any point if you need any help or have any additional questions.
Moving In and Your Inventory Form
Your leasing agent will provide you with a resident manual with all the information you need to enjoy and care for your new home. Keep this resident manual close; it will often answer any questions that you have and it will save you a lot of time and effort if you remember to refer to your manual before calling or emailing us.
You will also receive an inventory and condition form when you move into your property. This is an important form that we need you to fill out completely. It will allow you to document the move-in condition of the property. We deliver rental properties that are clean and in outstanding condition, so if there's anything that isn't working or doesn't look right, we want to know about it. We'll also use this form at the end of your lease when you're preparing to move out. We expect you to return the property to us in the same condition that it was received, and this form that you complete will allow us to compare the condition now to the condition in the future.
So, it's in everyone's best interests to pay close attention to the property condition and the condition form. Please go through your new home in great detail as you complete this form. Be sure to take pictures of any issues or problems that you note on the form, and email the form and photos back to us within five days of your move-in date.
This form will stay with the leasing department until the end of your lease draws near. If you see anything that needs maintenance during this process, please submit a separate maintenance request through the website provided in your Resident Guidelines letter. We will be sure to take care of any problems that you notice right away, and we appreciate you sharing as much detail as possible so we can be responsive and thorough.
Taking Care of the Home
We want you to enjoy your new home, and keeping your property clean and well-maintained will help you love living there. Our team is here to work with you anytime you need maintenance or repairs. As you know, tenants are responsible for keeping the property clean and tidy as well as setting up all utilities and caring for the landscaping. You should have opened up utility accounts before you moved in, and paying those monthly bills will be your responsibility. The landscaping is also up to you, unless your lease agreement says differently. Please be sure to keep the lawn cut and the bushes and trees free of any debris, weeds, or overgrowth.
Tenants must also complete minor and seasonal maintenance issues that you would take care of at any house that you lived in. These responsibilities include changing the light bulbs when they burn out and replacing the furnace filters and refrigerator water filters. We make sure that your property complies with all of the necessary regulations and requirements in the Texas Property Code. As tenants, you are also responsible for complying with state and local laws and codes as well as any HOA rules and regulations.
Before you move in, the owner of your property will be responsible for ensuring that the rental property is thoroughly clean, safe, and ready for occupancy. We will work with your owner to make sure the home has been re-keyed since the last tenants move out. We understand the requirements for deadbolt locks and peepholes in the exterior doors. We are also careful to provide the right types of smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in your home. If your property is in an HOA or a condo association, we will be sure to provide you with a copy of those rules. It's your responsibility to comply with them, and any fines or violations will be directed to you.
Paying Rent on Time Every Month
Paying rent is one of your most important duties as a tenant, and we are here to help you stay committed to on-time payments. We provide a number of different ways for you to pay, and your lease agreement will outline how to pay and where to pay. The most popular method of rental payments is our online system. Once you have access to your online tenant portal, you can use it to pay rent every month or to schedule upcoming and ongoing rental payments.
Our tenants appreciate this because it's secure, convenient, and a great way to ensure you don't miss a payment and face a late fee.
Your leasing coordinator will provide you with the credentials you need to set up and log into your private resident portal where you can pay rent each month via a checking account or your debit or credit card.
Requesting Maintenance
When routine maintenance or a general repair is needed, simply submit your request online or call our maintenance hotline to submit a ticket. Most of our tenants enjoy using the online maintenance reporting system; it's convenient, efficient and can be done at any time of the day or night and from any location. It also gives us a written record of when the request was made and what we did to take care of it. This is useful in our reporting and documentation efforts.
We recognize that submitting an electronic request isn't always convenient or possible, especially if there's an emergency at your property. If you have something that needs immediate attention, please call our hotline so we can dispatch someone to take care of the matter right away. Emergencies usually involved leaking water, fire, and any type of weather incidents such as a tree crashing through a window or part of the roof flying off.
At Specialized Property Management, we are committed to responding to your maintenance needs quickly and professionally. We ask you to be diligent about reporting the things that are broken or failing at your home. Leaving maintenance unreported will only be inconvenient for you and will lead to further problems that will be more complicated and more expensive to fix. Even if something seems minor, go ahead and put in a maintenance request so we are aware of it. Keeping communication open between tenants and management will help everyone have a more pleasant rental experience.
Moving Out of Your Property
You're still in the process of moving into your home, so it may seem premature to be thinking about your move-out date and process. However, we believe that every successful move-out starts when a tenant is moving in. We have a specific process that, when followed, will increase your chances of having your full security deposit returned to you. We ask that you leave your property clean and in the same working condition that you are receiving it right now. During your tenancy, you can work towards this goal by paying attention to the cleanliness and repair of your property.
When it is time to move out, Specialized Property Management rewards residents for on-time rental payments and for taking care of the property during your stay. After you move out and we have verified that there is no property damage or any other outstanding issues, we will offer you a printed and electronic record of your payment history. We are also happy to provide you with a letter of recommendation upon request. This can help you in your effort to purchase a home or in renting your next home. We appreciate our tenants who work hard to pay rent on time, follow the lease agreement terms, and care for the property. If we can help you find a new rental home, we hope you'll talk to us about what you're looking for and where you'd like to live.
Get to Know Your Resident Manual
As we have mentioned, your leasing agent will give you a Specialized Property Management resident manual with all of these items and more. Please keep this manual handy for easy reference throughout your tenancy.
Thank you for choosing a property managed by our talented and responsive team. We hope you enjoy your new home and if we can be of any assistance, please feel free to contact us at Specialized Property Management.

Alive food : Kind of feeding without baking (temperature under 42°) which prioritizes organic and vegan raw materials. It able to preserve the most part of nutritional values if the optimum conditions of storage are respected.
Raw Crackers : Crackers made by Biscru are dried at low temperature (under 42°C) . The very low drying able to preserve most part of the nutritional values of raw materials used I their confection . This manufacturing process corresponds to the "Raw food" precepts.
Raw foodism : Only eats raw food or foods dehydrated at temperature lower than 42°C (upper than 42°C the enzymes start to be destroyed.)
Germination : Germination is the process when a seed begins to grow to generate a new plant. The sprout will produce an important quantity of enzymes , transform proteins into amino acids and multiply by 8 to 10 the vitamins inside the seed. That is the reason why Biscru takes care to pre-sprout the seeds used. To make the pre-germination , we let them soaked in water during 8 to 48 hours (depends on the seed variety ) .
No additives : An additive is a substance that we can add to the product during manufacturing to modify its characteristics, such as the texture or color. It could give organoleptic specific properties. Biscru do not use additive , our wish is to realize as much natural recipes as possible.
No allergen : Our production line is only dedicated to gluten free products . We report for a total transparency on our packaging the eventual cross-contamination risks, such as : sesame seeds , nuts and mustard (ingredient from the curry that we use) presence in our production plant.
No gluten : Gluten is a protein presents in certain cereals such as wheat, more and more people develop gluten intolerance that is the reason why Biscru uses always gluten-free seeds.

The Cron Basics:
Brief overview of cron, crontab and anacron.
Cron is a background daemon which executes scripts (cronjobs) at predetermined times or intervals.
Crontab is a configuration file that allows you to select and schedule when, or at what interval, these cronjobs will run at.
Anacron is smart program that works in conjunction with cron, but taking into accout that the system may be shut down from time to time or on a regular basis. Cron assumes that the system will be running for every scheduled job and if it's not then that job will not execute, while anacron takes into account that the system may be off and it executes each cronjob as close to the time as possible when the system is started.
As you can see from this Synaptic package manager image, cron and anacron are already installed, but if they weren't, a few simple clicks in synaptic or an apt-get statement would take care of it.
The little person that appears to be sitting in the image is one of the many desktop mascots (a feature of my current Linux distro Mangaka-chu).
Lets start with the cron daemon...
First we will determine if cron is currently running in the background.
I will run a process command for the user root and pipe that into grep, looking for the "cron" pattern.
As you can see from this image "cron" is indeed running.
If it wasn't I run the following command as root or (sudo)
NOTE: this is on my current Mangaka-chu system (Debian/Ubuntu based)
# /etc/init.d/cron start
$ sudo /etc/init.d/cron start
Alternatively stop and restart also work using the same syntax.
The cron daemon will execute cronjobs under the permission of the crontab creator, most likely, you.
Depending on you system, you may or may not have a /etc/cron.deny or a /etc/cron.allow file(s). These file(s) control a user's ability to create/edit crontab files.
Now lets go over the crontab file...
The overall default crontab file consists of a few directives, (shell, path, mail, home variables, etc...)
and then the scheduling and command sections.
The scheduling section looks a little intimidating at first, but it's very simple if you have a legend to go by.
---------------------- minute (0 - 59)
<schedule> <user> <command> is valid for the overall default crontab file /etc/crontab, but a user's personal crontab has a much simpilar format.
No directives
<schedule> <command>
use a single space between parts of the schedule and the command.
Here is the overall default crontab file on my system:
Now for some scheduling examples:
* 02 * * * means every day at 2 O'Clock
* */02 * * * means every 2 hours
01 * * * * (The first minute of every hour)
*/05 * * * * (every 5 minutes)
20 05 * * * (at 5:20 AM)
* * 29 * * (29th of every month)
* * * * 1-5 (Monday thru Friday)
* * */02 * * (every 2 days)
01 22 12 1 * (January 12th @ 10:01 PM)
In the command section you will enter a command or script to be executed.
For example, let's use the "date" command, the date/time output could be appended to a local file like this:
date >> /home/debtboy/log1.txt
To create a personal crontab file...
Open a shell and type "crontab -e" then enter you cronjob.
As you can see from the image, I set a job (appending the date output to log1.txt file) to run on a 2 minute interval so every 2 minutes a newline get added to the file.
After saving, everything is already working, no need to restart anything.
Now I've decided to add a second cronjob to the file so I follow the same procedure, open a shell and type crontab -e and add the new cronjob.
In this case a different file log2.txt will be appended on a 10 minute interval.
I've been writing, and some time has passed, so lets see if our cronjobs are working...
The 2 log files have been created, so far so good...
now lets look inside.
As expected, you can see the date/time appends to the log files
log1.txt appends are each 2 minuets apart and the log2.txt appends are 10 minutes apart. As it stands now,
these files will continue to grow until disk space runs out, so I better modify those jobs.
One additional note:
You don't need to know where your personal crontab file is located or the actual file name, but if your curious...
It's located here: /var/spool/cron/crontabs/
The file name is the user name, in my case, it's called debtboy.
Your system may be slightly different.
Anacron needs very little explanation, you have 4 folders:
As the root user or sudo, drop your executable script into the desired folder and that job will be executed
as close to the interval as possible when the computer is running.
To make your script(s) executable, add a she-bang #!/bin/bash as the first line in your script and then enter your commands.
The executable bit(s) should be set after the file is saved via the chmod command.
For example... script1.sh
now enter chmod 755 ./script1.sh
755 = (rwxr_xr_x)
now drop it in the folder of choice.
These were a few cron/crontab/anacron basics via the command line,
but there are graphical interfaces for those who prefer them as well as tasking programs on your favourite desktop environments.
Give cron a try if your not using it already. ;)
That's all there is to it!!
No need to schedule as the folder names speak for themselves. ;)
Any idea if this can be a review article added to the Linux section at the main site?
Very nice
Scheduled task's for linux.
I use Windows about 70% of the time so decided to use anacron.
Nice overview you got there, now for a short interview:D.
See here: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/amor-a-cre...r-desktop.html (Note that the article is incorrect, AMOR doesn't stand for Automatic Machine Object Recognition, just read the comments.)
With the exception of Ruby, I use Python, Tcl/Tk and Perl quite a bit, but most of my cronjobs are simple bash scripts.

Our Curriculum
- Confident Communicators;
- Knowledgeable and Expert Learners;
- Committed Community Contributors;
- Future Ready Young People.
Following years of differentiation of the National Curriculum, adaptations and 'making do', we, at Beckfoot Phoenix are proud to have developed our own curriculum for our very special 21st Generation learners.
A recent external review of our curriculum (May 2019) reported that our curriculum is 'innovative' and 'ambitious because it seeks to focus on the priority needs of the pupils and to maximise their independence and participation in wider life'.
Our curriculum is developmental, meaningful and functional. It is research based and includes the essential building blocks for learning that our children may have missed, such as executive functioning skills ie. working memory, cognitive flexibility, and inhibitory control, finger and hand dexterity and strength, and social and emotional development.
Our curriculum runs throughout school from nursery to key stage 2 and incorporates all aspects of the Early Years curriculum as well as aspects of the National Curriculum that are appropriate to our children's lives. It is planned by developmental stage rather than age, with children being grouped into Bases and classes accordingly.
- look on class Dojo to see what the class have been doing and do more of this at home.
- read at home.
- read and count when out and about.
- complete any homework that the class has sent home.
- take part in any activities that will help the progress made towards EHCP targets.
- our curriculum rationale that explains our intent, implementation and impact - see attachment above.
- our curriculum coverage document that shows the coverage across our 5 curriculum stages - see attachments below.

Reasons for saving
You can not think about your future equity if you have not previously made a good approach to your savings and all of your investments.
One way of internalizing the need to save is to analyze the ability of the Social Security to meet the needs of citizens in terms of retirement, unemployment, serious illness and long life.
The contributions that each citizen makes to the Social Security on their own account and through their employer are:
A worker earns 40,000 gross per year. For the company, the cost of salary is 51,960 euros. The difference, i.e. the 11,960 euros, is paid by the company into the Social Security. On the other hand, the employee pays 6.35% of their salary, i.e. 2,540 euros. Altogether a worker who receives a gross annual salary of 40,000 euros, brings 14,500 to the Social Security system.
Imagine a scenario without inflation or salary increases in a very simple simulation. In this case, considering entry to the working world at 25 and retirement at 65 after 40 years contributing to the Social Security, the person could theoretically receive an annual pension of 40,000 euros gross for 14.5 years until the age of 80. This significantly adjusts the average life expectancy for the Spaniards, which stands at 82.2 years (as reported by the National Institute of Statistics updated in 2012).
However, the current contributions from workers are used to finance other items, including the pensions of current pensioners, unemployment benefits, sickness benefits and casualties and accidents, amongst others. The evolution of the Spanish population pyramid should also be added, which reflects an ageing population, adding more retirees receiving the benefits of Social Security from a smaller active population. This, in simplified form, shows the small current sustainability of the social security system, exacerbated by the current unemployment rate in Spain (which is around 25%), and whose services consume a large part of the agency's budget. Therefore, it would be naïve to think that when the time comes for retirement we can count on this income, at least in its entirety.
The reality of the system is:
This simple analysis serves to raise awareness to the need to save for ourselves, creating our own pension plan thinking of our future welfare. If we can also efficiently manage taxation in all these years as an active worker, we can create another source of income that will give us an added plus.
How to optimize investment in a pension plan
The four basic rules
Pension plans are an instrument of long-term savings. These are final savings to cover our needs for retirement income and/or similar situations.
To get the most out of this tool, it is very convenient to keep the following in mind:
1 - Start ASAP
Between 30 and 40 years is a good age to start saving with long-term objectives. If you can consistently save a small part of your income for 30 years, it may produce a sufficiently attractive final capital to supplement income at retirement age.
2 - Systematic and disciplined contributions
When it comes to investing, discipline in decision-making is one of the aspects that makes the difference. As this is long-term investment, its importance is even more relevant. Contributions to a pension plan must be disciplined and systematic, and if possible each month. In this way you can achieve a double objective:
If a single annual contribution is made to an Equity pension plan in December, it could be the case that the subscribed shares have a higher price than they have had at other times of year. This happens by seasonal and statistical effects that clearly show that the stock tends to rise at year end. Therefore, a single annual average contribution does not allow the investment to be optimized. If several contributions throughout the year, this beneficial effect is achieved.
3 - Optimize taxation properly
The great advantage of the pension plans over other collective investments is its taxation. But like any other investment, it must be managed properly.
The underlying idea is to know how to exploit the difference in the tax burden between when a person is active and after retirement, with lower incomes and, therefore, lower taxation. The following should be borne in mind in optimizing this tax benefit:
4 - Manage the likely risk exposure of the pension plans and funds
Pension plans and funds, like mutual funds, in which investment can be in different asset classes according to the investment policy. The exposure of the different types of assets is a decision you must take depending on your age and risk profile.
To do this, you have the possibility of transfers between pension funds. It would be advisable to focus investment in pension funds on equities when you are young and many years from retirement, and as you get closer to retirement to invest through the transfer of vested rights.
Normally, Investment Managers have different pension funds to cover these strategies.
Manage savings
To efficiently invest our savings we must define our targets from the amount you want to have for a future event and the time available.
With this information we analyze the risks and characteristics of each type of investment to finally decide where to turn.
Look at the following table of results for systematic annual contributions to a pension fund. Preliminary considerations:
The end result is that at 67 two capitals have been buid up: one in a Pension Fund to complement the public pension, and another in an investment fund (with different savings income taxation).

Household savings (families)
The gross income of a family can be devoted to current consumption, future consumption and savings (through investment in financial assets accumulated periodically).
Gross savings include both those intended as financial assets allocated to real estate. If from this we subtract the necessary part of the mortgage payment, we get the net savings.
The distribution of income between consumption and savings depends on several factors such as the expected permanent income, net wealth (financial and otherwise), uncertainty about the future, the increase in interest rates (making consumption less attractive) conditions of lending by financial institutions and even increases in the government deficit ratio to increase their taxes.
Household savings presents a contrast to the economic cycle, i.e. they fall in expansions and increase during recessions.
According to the National Statistics Institute (INE), the saving rate of households and non-profit institutions fell 2.8 points 2012 to stand at 8.2% of disposable income, the lowest figure since the series started in 2000. Contracting resulted in lower gross income (-2.7%) and a slight increase in end consumption expenditure (0.2%).
The sharp fall in wages affecting the country is having an effect on household disposable income. Consequently, the ability to save and end consumption also suffer. This trend accelerated in the latter part of the year, highlighting the difficult economic situation of many Spanish families. In the last three months of 2012, the savings rate was thus 12.7%, higher than the full year, but not due to an increase in disposable income (a 4.2% fall, 7,835 million less than in the same quarter of the previous year), but rather the the larger effort of households to squeeze their ever-diminishing income.

According to OGAE Germany, a long discussion about the new Eurovision Song Contest format has been made in the Reference Group.
It is claimed that some countries are very disappointed because of the way other countries voted. Especially Austria, Switzerland and Estonia are very sensible when it comes to the voting topic.
Furthermore, the Reference Group also discussed the possibility to make a more
interesting mixture of nationalities as some members think this year's contest was very Balcan-focussed. Thus, during the next meeting in Kiev they will prepare new plans and ideas. Notwithstanding, it seems to be open the possibility of having two semi finals and one final.
Moreover, what is also interesting is the information how many people have voted in several countries. In other words, in the semi final there were only 259 calls from Albania, 5524 from Serbia and Montenegro, Ukraine only 3815 votes, but 92.305 from Switzerland!
On the other hand, the Reference group is also concerned that the interest in the Big Four countries (UK, Germany, Spain and France) was very low in the semi final as they didn't take part in it. In fact, only 39.005 people voted in Spain, but more than a million in Germany, which is probably the reason why Germany is one of the biggest supporters of televoting.
In addition to discussing all these issues, the Reference group will sign a contract in order to assure the Ukrainian organization of the Eurovision Song Contest as the public elections in Ukraine could be a risk for it. Although the Reference Group is concerned about some infrastructural issues, the Ukrainian governement and NTU promised everything will be okay.
It seems that a tribute to the 50th anniversary of the Eurovision Song Contest will take place on 16th October under the production of BBC.

Hi lovelies! Today's post is dedicated to Tiger. Tiger is a Pitbull cross Staffie cross Boxer and he's a Golden Oldie! Tiger has been through a lot in his life, you can read his story over here. I know July is nearly done but it is National Senior Pet month. If you have any pets aged 7 & up it's important to go to the vet for a senior health check and feed them a food designed for senior pets.
Why does Tiger deserve to be called a Golden Oldie?
Tiger's rap sheet:
- Getting poisoned by black death and surviving it
- Getting into a fight with a porcupine
- Getting into a fight with a bush pig that nearly pierced his lung
- Another porcupine fight
- Getting bit by a baboon
- Another porcupine fight (worst one)
Now before you freak out and go at me for not taking care of my dog. This all happened in our yard. The baboons nearly came into the house and he was just protecting what's his. This is one of the cons of living in a very small town that makes out part of a nature reserve. Dogs are curious and want to investigate and it won't be fair towards them to be kept inside at all times.
Seven Steps for Super Seniors:
- Most importantly, go to the vet for a senior health check and ask for an IDEXX SDMA test.
- Switch to a food specifically formulated for senior pets. New Hill's Prescription Diet k/d + Mobility, available at vets in South Africa from late June 2017, has been developed after more than a decade of research and combines Hill's best nutritional science to manage older pets.
- Have clean water easily available at all times and monitor water intake.
- Try to make your home more comfortable e.g. easy access to a warm bed, litter tray, food and water bowls; non-slippery floor surfaces; using ramps or steps as needed.
- Regular grooming including brushing the teeth and trimming the nails as needed.
- Consistent, gentle exercise and play is good for mind and body.
- Lavish love and attention.
Golden Oldie Advice from Hills
Whilst their love and loyalty doesn't age, our pets certainly do, and often quicker than some pet parents realize. Cats and dogs are considered 'seniors' by seven years of age, and even as young as five for large breed dogs, like Labradors. And whilst ageing isn't a disease, older pets are at higher risk of heart disease, cancer, arthritis, kidney and liver disease. During July, National Senior Pet Month, find out how to help prevent and manage common conditions for golden oldies.
You may believe your seven-year-old cat or dog is in its prime. However, on the inside, the picture can be quite different. Many conditions simply aren't evident before irreversible damage has occurred. This is why a senior health screening is vitally important. An annual heath check at the vet is equivalent to you seeing the doctor about once in seven years!
Kidney Disease
Ask your vet about the IDEXX SDMA, an affordable new test that can detect kidney disease in cats up to four years earlier than before and up to two years earlier in dogs. Kidney disease is known as the silent killer because symptoms rarely show before it's too late. Since the new test became available globally last year more than 350, 000 pets have been diagnosed with kidney disease that traditional tests would have missed. Early detection allows for prompt intervention which can extend life and improve the quality of those years.
Different Nutrients
With age, the optimal range for different nutrients becomes narrower, making it easier to tip into dietary deficiencies or excesses. "Providing the correct age-appropriate food for your senior pet is probably the simplest and most effective way you can make a difference to their health and well-being," says Dr Guy Fyvie, Veterinary Advisor at Hill's Pet Nutrition South Africa. "New Hill's Prescription Diet k/d + Mobility combines the very best nutritional science to help older pets remain fit, active and healthy for longer." Developed after more than a decade of research on ageing and the impact of nutrients on cell function, the new food will be available exclusively from South African veterinarians from late June 2017.
Several small meals a day may be easier on an older pet's digestion. But avoid overfeeding – obesity can lead to numerous health problems and can shorten a pet's life.
Have fresh water available at all times – older pets' are less able to regulate water balance and more prone to dehydration. Ensure food and water bowls are within easy reach of the elderly pet that may find it painful to bend, stretch or jump.
Play Time is Important
Go for walks and play together. Appropriate exercise will help you both stay fit and also keep the brain active, helping to avoid 'doggy Alzheimer's'.
So should your best friend be reaching that senior stage, it's time for a visit to the vet and to make the seven-year-switch to the right food. Visit www.SeniorPets.co.za, a new website with more expert advice; ways to identify the 'tell-tail' signs of ageing; inspiring stories and tools to calculate your pet's 'real age'.

I don't usually post press releases but I am a huge dog lover and my dogs are part of my family. I found everything in the above mentioned press release important and helpful.

This cartoon by Peter Brookes from The Times provides a pessimistic view of Haiti's future. The first panel shows a typical shanty town dwelling before last Tuesday's earthquake. The people are poor and the house is little more than a hut with a corrugated roof. The second panel shows the ruins of the same house after the quake. The third panel, captioned 'Haiti Reconstruction', is exactly the same as the first one. The suggestion is clear: the disaster will change nothing. Haiti will remain one of the world's poorest countries, and life will continue as before.
The prefix pre- means before. The prefix post- means after. • Proper pre and post-workout nutrition can help you maximize muscle and strength gains.

Bare in mind, Kveta's out of town at the moment, so all this yummy stuff is just for me, for the week..
Here's a pic of the fruit currently in stock:
Fruit in our kitchen
As you can see, there're 2 rock melons, a box of oranges and grapefruit, about 6 pineapples, the cucumbers are home grown from our little garden (I generally eat about one a day of that size, normally somewhere between 16:00 and 18:00) ..
OK.. what else've we got.. local grown organic avos, local custard apples, tomatoes from ravenshoe (probably less than 50kms as the crow flies).. Passion fruit from the garden (actually, from next door's garden, but they can't eat them all, so they kindly share them with us)...
1 organic watermelon I picked up from the market on saturday, a few 'nanas, some beautiful red fleshed pawpaw from our pawpaw man.. and a handful of persimmon fruit.. End of the season for them, so they're the last ones left..
There're also about 6 medjool dates left, sitting in a bowl on our "oven". (Yes! we have an oven.. or stove, or whatever those things are called.. It was in here when we got here, and has to still be here when we leave, so we just use it as a table top, and have bowls and a blender piled up on top of it (and the 6 medjool dates too!)..
There's also a box with about 15 to 20 mandarins, and with a finally quick look around I spot 3 lemons too.. but they won't get eaten, the lemons we use to wash our hair with..
In our garden, we have fruiting tomato and cucumber plants, and they get eaten daily.. the tomatoes are tommy toes, the little cherry sized ones, they seem to be the easiest to grow, although one of the plants has grown from the seed of a conventionally grown tomato, and is doing pretty well..
freshly picked cucumber from our garden
We also have now quite a few pawpaw trees that are about thigh high.. grown from seed when we moved in here in february, so you can see how quick things're growing here (you can see one pawpaw tree in the picture above, growing up between the tomato plants)..
Τhen there're a great many fruit trees of all sorts coming out of the ground (we bury our compost in small holes and then cover it with soil and mulch and continue our garden on top of it, thus wherever there's garden, there's fruit tree seedlings sprouting out too..
Still dreaming of being far more rural, and planting out garden everywhere. (unfortunately we have a lawn here now, and we're not really allowed to do much with that except cut it..)..

Primer on Disability Benefits: Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
Publication Date
[Excerpt] In general, the goal of disability insurance is to replace a portion of a worker's income should illness or disability prevent him or her from working. Individuals may receive disability benefits from either federal or state governments, or from private insurers. This report presents information on two components of federal disability benefits, those provided through the Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) programs. The SSDI program is an insurance program that provides benefits to individuals who have paid into the system and meet certain minimum work requirements. In contrast, the SSI program is a means-tested program that does not have work or contribution requirements, but restricts benefits to those who meet asset and resource limitations.

It has been 'one of those' weeks: soggy school runs, long-distance hospital trips, missing football boots, arguments over Lego constructions, disappearing library books…. you know the sort. But there's nothing more healing and comforting than a steaming bowl of lemony vegan lentil soup, with a base of two 'superfoods' – ginger and turmeric. Good for the body as well as the soul.
This is surprisingly easy to make, it would be very difficult to 'get wrong', as people always seem to be so worried about. And the texture of the finished soup is up to you – I used a potato masher just to rough mine up a bit, but you could purée yours with a hand-blender if you prefer a smooth soup, or leave it alone if you prefer it really chunky.
Regular readers will know that I often use ready-chopped ginger from a jar, or a tube of ginger purée to save time, but here I think it really makes a difference if you use fresh root ginger – it is one of the stars of the show in this healing soup, and needs to be zingy and at its best rather than just a background flavour.
Once you've tried making the soup as per the recipe you could try all sorts of other flavour combinations:
- Roast the carrot and potato with some whole garlic cloves before adding to the soup for a really intense, sweet flavour. Squeeze the flesh of the garlic out into the soup and discard the skins.
- Use other root vegetables in place of the carrot and potato – how about swede (totally underrated in my opinion), parsnip, celeriac or jerusalem artichokes when they are in season?
- Add some fresh herbs to the finished soup for a flavour boost – coriander would be lovely and/or parsley, and even basil would be lovely here.
- Roast some cherry tomatoes and stir through the soup at the last minute for a flavour pop
- Replace the ginger with 2 tsp garam masala and the dairy-free milk with half a tin of coconut milk for an Indian-inspired flavour combination

Freezing your Vegan Lentil Soup
Your soup will freeze brilliantly, so why not make up a double or even triple batch whilst you're at it, if there's room in your freezer? I love leaving the spinach or kale leaves whole if I'm serving this soup fresh, but if freezing I tend to either chop them up small or blitz the soup to a smooth purée as the leaves can go a bit slimy after freezing and defrosting. Or you could leave them out entirely and add some to your defrosted soup just before serving.
I often save old margarine tubs for freezing soup – they hold a really good single portion, and stack neatly in the freezer to make the most of limited space. Don't forget to write on the lid with the contents and date, or you will really regret it when you have a clearout and wonder what on earth is inside!
Vegan Lentil Soup: Equipment and Shopping List
You will need:
- large saucepan or casserole dish
- blender or hand blender (optional)
Shopping List:
- onion
- carrot
- potato
- spinach or curly kale
- lemon
- fresh root ginger
- dried red lentils
- ground turmeric
- vegetable stock powder (check it is vegan)
- rapeseed or sunflower oil
- dairy-free milk
Vegan Lentil Soup with Ginger & Turmeric
- 2 tbsp rapeseed or sunflower oil
- 1 onion
- 2-3 cm piece fresh root ginger
- 2 carrots
- 2 tsp ground turmeric
- 1 potato
- 150 g dried red lentils
- 1 litre vegetable stock (check it is vegan)
- handful spinach or curly kale
- 125 ml dairy-free milk
- 1 lemon
- Heat the oil in a large saucepan or casserole dish. Peel and finely chop the onion and fry gently for 2-3 until starting to soften.
- Peel the ginger (a teaspoon is surprisingly handy for this job, give it a try!), then finely chop and add to the pan. Peel and finely chop the carrots and add to the pan. Cook for a further 3-4 minutes.
- Add the turmeric to the pan and stir. Peel and finely chop the potato and add to the pan. Rinse the red lentils in a sieve, then add to the pan followed by the stock. Bring the soup to the boil and cook for 20-25 minutes until the lentils are soft. Add the spinach/kale (removing any large stalks), cook for a further minute, then taste and season well with salt and black pepper as required.
- At this point you can use a blender or hand blender to blitz the soup to a smooth purée, or use a potato masher to break up any large chunks of vegetable, or just leave it as a chunky soup.
- Stir through the dairy-free milk and the juice of the lemon, then serve. The soup freezes well so you can make a large batch whilst your at it and portion it up for the freezer.

D-myo-Inositol-1,4-diphosphate, sodium salt is a member of the inositol phosphate (InsP) molecular family. It plays critical roles as small, soluble second messengers in the transmission of cellular signals. Ins(1,4)P2 can be dephosphorylated to Ins(4)P by inositol polyphosphate 1-phosphatase and further dephosphorylated to inositol by inositol monophosphatase.

I'm telling you, you can't mess around in the quest for Oscar completeness.
The animated short "No Time for Nuts" that was up on YouTube yesterday has been taken down at the request of the copyright holder. Gone. No more. It will probably win, although "Lifted" looks like a surer bet.
Putting my long ago Research Methodology class to work, I did manage to come up with the video of another animated short, "The Danish Poet." It's on Google Video.
I also watched "Maestro." Very cute with a twist at the end. It won't win, but enjoy anyway.
Here's the trailer at least for "West Bank Story," which looks like a pretty funny parody.
Also, this is the nominated version of "The Little Matchgirl"
It's clearly very Disney, so don't expect it to be there long.
I'm telling you, you can't mess around with the quest for Oscar completeness.

Boris Johnson is facing a revolt within his own party as MPs across the political spectrum condemn the prime minister and his chief adviser Dominic Cummings.
However many MPs, including Hertsmere MP Oliver Dowden, have backed Mr Cummings despite the backlash.
But so far, 15 Conservative MPs have called for Mr Cummings to resign, following Mr Johnson's defence on Sunday (May 24).
Mr Cummings travelled to County Durham in March to self-isolate with his family while official guidelines warned against long-distance journeys, apparently because he feared that he and his wife would be left unable to care for their son. Further reports also suggested he took a second trip to the North East in April.
Mr Johnson fronted Downing Street's coronavirus briefing to back Mr Cummings, saying he had "acted responsibly, legally and with integrity" and that "any parent would frankly understand what he did".
Many from the Conservative party have shared their discomfort with the handling of the Mr Cummings situation including former minister Paul Maynard and Senior Tory MP Simon Hoare.
Mr Hoare told the Daily Mail: "The PM's performance posed more questions than it answered. Any residual hope that this might die away in the next 24 hours is lost."
Somerton and Frome MP David Warburton said Mr Cummings was "damaging the Government and the country that he's supposed to be serving".
Speaking on BBC Breakfast on Monday morning, he said his own father had died alone as a result of the coronavirus lockdown.
He said: "People have made sacrifices, this is a difficult time, this is a time of national crisis.
"In those sacrifices there really hasn't been the choice to use instinct.
"Instinct hasn't really been part of it.
"We've been tasked with following regulations laid down by the Government."
When the reports first broke of Mr Cummings breaking lockdown restrictions, the Hertsmere MP denied the claims and said: "Dom Cummings followed the guidelines and looked after his family. End of story."
Dom Cummings followed the guidelines and looked after his family. End of story.— Oliver Dowden (@OliverDowden) May 23, 2020
Watford MP Dean Russell has been contacted for his response to the situation.
Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer tweeted Mr Johnson had failed a test of leadership, saying his decision to take no action against Mr Cummings was "an insult to sacrifices made by the British people".
Labour MP Paul Blomfield echoed his leader, saying Mr Johnson had "treated the British people with contempt".
While Mr Johnson shared his support for Mr Cummings yesterday, discussion and scrutiny for the events continues.

These just in: necklaces made from vintage watches. Some are big and sort of pocket watch like, some are smaller and more necklace-y. I lurv them.
Now, you may look at them and say "I could make those". Maybe you could (if you can solder jump rings and scour the earth/web for cool old watches). But here's the real question: Will you? I won't. So I bought one of these and I am wearing it right now, and it looks really nice. Yup.

In Which Zille Compliments The Scottish Race
A while ago Zille Defeu got a good spanking (which is not news) and in the course of telling us about it, she had some choice words of respect for the efficiency of the Scots when it comes to punishment implements:
He started pulling a number of tawses out of the drawer. He added two firm leather straps to the mix as well. Gulp.
I … laid down over the side of the bed in my usual spot. He pulled me to him and settled me over one thigh, as he sometimes does, the other leg trapping mine at the calves. My arm nearest him was trapped against his body, and my right arm was bent up on my back and held by his left hand. It's an optimal position for him because I'm not going anywhere, and he can feel all my squirming. It's also more intimate and less formal, which is good by me, but it does mean that with the longer toys, the right side of my hip gets more than it's fair share of the worst part of the blow.
"Oh lord, no warm-up today," I was thinking in that calm way you get in the midst of a disaster. But he put down the strap he'd picked up, and started spanking me. They weren't light spanks, but it didn't unduly distress me (that being one way of putting it!)
Then he went for one of those firm straps, and I thought, "Oh no, here we go—!" but both the firm straps turned out to be, if not friendly and gentle, at least not the sort of pain I can't manage. The pain built up right quick, to be sure, but I was handling it well.
After he'd given both straps and my bottom a good workout, he put them down and started spanking me again. The spanks were hard and fast, but they were right on my sweet spot, and the exact right intensity and tempo that's guaranteed to make me orgasm. And I did, delighted that he was gifting me with an orgasm at this stage of the game.
Well, my Master's not Greek, but I should really beware gifts from him! He shifted me off of his left and onto the bed, stood up, grabbed a tawse, and started in on my bottom.
Yeeeeowch! The Scots are not a race of people who mess about—when they want someone punished, they make proper tools to do it with! I'd had the "warm-up" (my Master's definition of warm up is somewhat more vigorous than most peoples!) so I was able to breath through the first half of it. But, eventually, there came the stroke that undid me, and as the blows were coming down relentlessly, remorselessly (and other words starting with "r" and ending in "lessly") I couldn't regain my masochistic balance, and so ended up yelping, dancing from foot to foot, and finally, crying. He got in a goodly number after the crying started. He used to stop when I started crying, and the fact that he'll now push me on from there means he trusts me more and expects more from me (and, errr, that he's been reading this blog and seeing my rather unsubtle hints about wanting more intense beatings).
What can I say? It was pure hotness—and no, I don't mean how my bottom felt to the touch afterwards! It was just like my fantasies, and I wish that I could cherish the moment when I'm in the moment, the way I do afterwards when I remember it—and when I replay it while masturbating. But, of course, it hurts a wee bit too much to cherish the sensations at the time! The problems of being a masochist!
Zille Defeu commented on March 26th, 2009:
Thanks, Spank Boss! Glad you enjoyed it! (It actually means a lot to me when you single out something of mine to link to. I get this warm glow and think, "It means I did good, if Spank Boss likes it!" Really!)
And I meant every word I said! ;)

Our plans are to run events that replicate as far as possible the event styles of the 60's and encourage the participation of vehicles from the historic era.
In this regard we will be trying to emulate the appropriate events run by the Historic Rally Association.
We do not plan to run events that are currently being run by other clubs unless it is to enhance a current programme or series.
Our first sporting event was the Southern Mountains Trial (1960) Revisited. This event is reported below and gave our team the challenge of gaining approvals from Forestry and Police for this 'drivers' Touring Road Event along the course of the historic first Southern Mountains Trial.
It ran without a problem and became the stepping stone for future events.
We then chose to run another TRE, the Black Stump, not an old event but a good Aussie name for a new double headed event. This time we had an expanded 'drivers' event (Road Runner) and a 'navigators' (Barry Ferguson Classic that continued the tradition of the last 8 years). Competitors could participate in either or both of these under the Black Stump banner.
The principle was warmly embraced and ensured that we were continuing the navigational styles of the 60s without in any way pulling back from our challenge to provide the drivers events.
From a cost effective aspect it gave us two 3 day events for a little over the price of one.
The Committee have decided that we will run the Black Stump concept event into the future as it met all our objectives and could be done very effectively. The name is not specific to one location and can be moved around the state.
We have expanded our knowledge of the approval process by extending it to two Councils and the National Parks and Wildlife Service during the Black Stump.
We have a new set of rules to run with for TREs with the introduction of the 2018 national Rally Code (NRC). On the plus side we can run more and longer closed road section than previously however the average speed on these sections has been reduced if we have vehicles without roll over protection. We will consider what approach we can take to have these vehicles still participating in some sections of an event.
The HRC will be running a navigation only event to supplement the Classic Rally Clubs 2018 series. Details are included in the Calendar.
We have established a Sporting Committee to initially look at the time of the year that we should be running our major event.
The basis of the committee are Arthur Evans (Chair), Winton Brocklebank and Mal Sinfield (General Committee liaison).
They will co-opt anyone interested in helping with sorting out the competition dates while doing their initial research.

- CVEs with nessus.description==Updated httpd packages that fix two security issues are now available for Red Hat JBoss Web Server 2.0.1 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having moderate security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section. Red Hat JBoss Web Server is a fully integrated and certified set of components for hosting Java web applications. It is comprised of the Apache HTTP Server, the Apache Tomcat Servlet container, Apache Tomcat Connector (mod_jk), JBoss HTTP Connector (mod_cluster), Hibernate, and the Tomcat Native library. A flaw was found in the way the mod_dav module of the Apache HTTP Server handled merge requests. An attacker could use this flaw to send a crafted merge request that contains URIs that are not configured for DAV, causing the httpd child process to crash. (CVE-2013-1896) It was found that mod_rewrite did not filter terminal escape sequences from its log file. If mod_rewrite was configured with the RewriteLog directive, a remote attacker could use specially crafted HTTP requests to inject terminal escape sequences into the mod_rewrite log file. If a victim viewed the log file with a terminal emulator, it could result in arbitrary command execution with the privileges of that user. (CVE-2013-1862) Warning: Before applying the update, back up your existing Red Hat JBoss Web Server installation (including all applications and configuration files). All users of Red Hat JBoss Web Server 2.0.1 should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues. After installing the updated packages, users must restart the httpd service for the update to take effect

Integra Resources (ITR.V) wants to make sure it's taking advantage of its first mover advantage after acquiring the past-producing DeLamar gold mine from Kinross Gold (KGC, K.TO) by locking up all pieces of prospective land. The company had previously defined no less than six gold and silver prospects on a six kilometer long trend called the black Sheep trend, northwest of the DeLamar and Florida Mountain deposits.
ITR also already completed a first field program last summer and the rock samples appear to be very encouraging with grades of up to 1.14 g/t gold and 300 g/t silver, but it's clear a lot more work needs to be done to follow up on the initial 72 rock chip samples. Declaring the Black Sheep trend an area of interest is pretty logical given the sampling results as well as the historic data on the small-scale mining activities in the area. Some of the pits dug by the artisanal miners didn't contain any precious metals mineralization, but according to Integra's interpretation that's because they were digging the pits too high up in the system, and none of the pits have reached the 'productive' zones of the mineralized system.
On top of that, subsequent drill programs were also targeting near-surface mineralization as the average depth of the drill holes was just 100 meters. That's also not deep enough to reach the theorized hot spot of gold and silver mineralization, but the assay results are actually really good. Integra's press release calls them 'encouraging', but we think they are a bit better than encouraging given some of the widths (55 meters and 67 meters) and the gold-equivalent grades (respectively 0.62 g/t and 1.19 g/t).
Now Integra has added 15 square kilometers of land to its DeLamar land package, it's safe to say the company has now pretty much locked up the entire district, which will allow it to conduct more regional exploration programs which will include more sampling, mapping and airborne magnetic and radiometric surveys.
The Greater DeLamar Area keeps on giving, and we are looking forward to Integra's resource update and maiden PEA later this year. We aren't expecting too much from the first resource update, but we are increasingly confident to see at least 5 million ounces gold-equivalent in a subsequent resource update and then it will be up to Integra's technical team and consultants to bring as many of those ounces into a mine plan.
