Assistant Rectors (ARs)
Mike Rossetti (Room 200)
Although raised in Colorado, Mike "Rossi" Rossetti comes from a large South Side Irish, Italian family, based mainly in Chicago and Boston. A proud Rambler, Mike graduated from Loyola University Chicago in 2012 with a B.S. in Secondary Education and B.A. in English. After Loyola, Mike taught English in Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of Chicago until 2016. Mike is currently a second year Master of Divinity student. In his spare time, Mike is cooking up the Italian classics, reading his way through literary classics, strolling around campus, and pondering the next place to travel. Mike is incredibly excited and grateful to be a part of the Keough community.
J.P. Catalanotto (Room 300)
- Born and raised in New York, J.P. decided to flee somewhat west for school. While he misses properly made pizza, J.P. is incredibly grateful to count himself among those who call Notre Dame Law School home. An avid musician, he can be heard playing guitar (probably poorly) and contending (definitely correctly) that Exile on Main Street by the Rolling Stones is the greatest rock album ever recorded. Following law school, J.P. hopes to work in public interest law in New York. After that, he hopes to retire to New Orleans as a hip grandpa of two dogs (likely named Roosevelt and Churchill, respectively).
Resident Assistants (RAs)
Stephen Meisenbacher (Section 1a - Room 119)
- Born and raised in New Jersey, Stephen hails from the quiet little town of Warren, where he grew up an avid Patriots fan, went to the beach a lot, and spent a fair amount of time abroad. At Notre Dame, Stephen majors in Computer Science and German, and during his free time, you can find him running way too much, spreading his love for music through the medium of college radio, or making his way through obscure and foreign Netflix shows. When he is not at Notre Dame or New Jersey, there is a very good chance Stephen is off in the great land of Germany, where he has taken many trips, including a semester abroad in Heidelberg and two summers in Berlin. He is beyond excited to join the section of 1A as the RA and is looking forward to meeting all of Keough's new members over food, talk, music, or a harmonious combination of the above.
Tim Govert (Section 2A - Room 219)
- The younger of two sons, Tim Govert was born and raised in the heart of the ACC in Durham, North Carolina, making him a diehard Duke fan and a lover of all things college basketball. As a Catholic surrounded by southern Protestants, Tim learned early on to love Notre Dame and has been very pleased to finally fill his wardrobe with Irish gear, which add variety to his otherwise blue and gray selection. Tim studies Chemical Engineering and is premed. When asked why, he answers, "I wanted to have fun in college." Besides studying, eating, and sometimes sleeping, Tim's other campus activities include playing as many intramurals as possible and watching Notre Dame play sports. Tim enjoys a good movie, bowling, and has shot a -12 in Wii golf. If you ever need an extra player, want an easy win in FIFA, need someone to listen, want to play Pokémon Go, or would enjoy some company at Mass, don't hesitate to find him in or around 2A.
Erik Peterson (2B - Room 251)
- Erik is a Physics Major concentrating in Astrophysics and Advanced Physics who is proud to be from the Pacific Northwest. This past semester he studied abroad in Santiago Chile, where he learned Spanish, researched at an observatory, and joined the university basketball team. Erik spends most of his time either rooting for my favorite teams like the Seahawks or playing basketball, soccer, ultimate frisbee, golf, and pretty much any other sport his friends want to play. Erik is a 25 time MVP of intramural sports (self-voted), a 2016 Keough section basketball champion, and wears a duck-taped gold helmet to every ND football game. Faith is also a big part of Erik's life, and he looks forward to deepening his faith by means of serving others this upcoming year.
Peter Spalitto (3A - Room 319)
- Peter hails from the great Kansas City, Missouri, whose name has stumped even the brightest of scholars for centuries. To keep himself busy, Pete enjoys majoring in the three most unconnected areas possible: Piano Performance, Pre-Health, and Spanish. On campus, he works as a tutor, retreat leader, and tour guide, though his credibility as a guide has begun to falter under speculation that he just makes up a majority of the information on the spot. As far as hobbies go, Peter's had a love for video games since he was a kid, though he definitely peaked in high school when his team was ranked #1 globally in World of Warcraft. That said, he's always down to drop at Tilted with the boys and rack up some wins. At the end of the day, Peter's a very light-hearted guy with a big soft spot for Keough and the priceless community there. He's very eager to return to the best dorm on campus and get to know even more 'Roos. Come find him in 3A whenever to chat, game, listen to music or just hang out. He loves to talk.
Parker Shattuck (3B - Room 351)
- Parker is a Californian by birth, but a Wisconsinite by upbringing, so he is almost exclusively a fan of teams that have never won championships (Chargers, Brewers). He studies International Economics with Chinese concentrating in Financial Economics and Econometrics, and spent this past semester in Shanghai so as to improve his Chinese language skills and get a better understanding of the Chinese economy. When he has free time, you can usually find him wakeboarding, swimming, playing lacrosse, or reading. Parker has a deep connection with Keough Hall and is excited to serve as an RA. That being said, feel free to drop by Room 351 and beat him at a videogame or share some new music.
Simon Padanilam (4A - Room 419)
- Experiencing a few ups and many downs, Simon Padanilam hails from Cleveland, OH and is an avid Cleveland sports fan, as you'll often see him reppin' his hometown teams. At Our Lady's University, Simon is majoring in Neuroscience and Behavior with a supplemental Greek and Roman Civilization major. Looking beyond his senior year, he hopes to be a physician and is applying to medical schools this fall. Simon is an MCAT tutor on campus who tries not to be a complete nerd by staying physically active and playing sports (ball is life). You can catch him in 4A either munching on a bag of Funyuns or looking to "give someone the hands" in a game of FIFA.
Henry Perillo (4B - Room 451)
- Henry lives with his family in Weston, Florida. His interest in the environment-human relationship, as well as his desire to connect with his heritage prompted him to study Environmental Sciences and Italian, respectively (ask me about my semester abroad in Bologna, Italy!). When he's not studying or doing other grown-up things, Henry has enjoys videogames, reading, exercising, volunteering at St. Joe's Hospital, and hanging out with his brothers in Keough. Besides serve as RA, Henry will be on the Club Boxing team, participate in the CSC Appalachia service seminar, and (along with fellow RA Steve Meisenbacher) complete the fourth installment of the critically-acclaimed radio show presented by WVFI: "Shuffle, Don't Stop".
Priest in Residence (Room 400)
Fr. Nate Wills, C.S.C., Ph.D. is a proud native of St. Paul, MN. He's a "triple Domer" having gone to undergrad, seminary, and completed his M.Ed. at Notre Dame through the Alliance for Catholic Education (ACE). In ACE, he taught religion and computer skills at a high school in Chicago which gave him a lot of good stories for future homilies. He was ordained a Holy Cross priest in 2006 and spent several years as an associate pastor at St. Joseph Parish in South Bend and then went on to get his Ph.D. in Education from the University of Wisconsin-Madison (Go Badgers!) studying technology policy in K-12 schools. Fr. Nate now teaches graduate courses in education and directs a program focused on implementing technology meaningfully in K-8 schools.
Fr. Nate is the priest-in-residence which means he regularly celebrates Mass in Keough Hall and often leaves his door open in the evening so students can refuel on candy, chat about life, receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation, or make fun of all of the Star Wars stuff in his room. Fr. Nate describes himself as "friendly" and "joyful." His friends describe him as a "slow runner." His mom says he is a "good eater."

Despite best being described as a mixture of The Gathering and The Provenance, Dutch Goth Metal veterans Autumn are different enough to make their take on the genre more than worthy of listening. Active since 1995, Altitude is only their fourth album, and it's excellent. Vocalist Marjan Welman's voice is the real pull here; light and as uplifting as the glider on the album art, she is more Poppy than Operatic but is the very heart and soul of the music in ways that most other Goth Metal bands never manage. Fans of Ayreon may well have heard her before, as she guest-vocalled on 01011001 – her voice is certainly more compelling and charismatic than Nienke de Jong, Autumn's previous vocalist. She's no slouch in the looks stakes, either; Gothic Metal bands with ugly singers are simply not possible these days!
Interestingly, the music seems less Poppy here than on their last album, 2007's My New Time; more Prog Metal aspects becoming noticeable, for example in the usage of keyboards. You expect a certain amount of heaviness from the musicians involved – the brothers van der Valk on guitars (also of Cantara, Seizure, formerly of God Dethroned) and Jerome Vreilink (Massive Assault, Absorbed) on bass being the notables – and the musicians deliver, providing plenty of groovy riffs and the odd solo with proggy keyboards dancing over the top, provided by Jan Munnik. It's somewhere between melodic Doom and the more commercial of some of the Prog Metal bands out there at the moment, but definitely more 'Metal' than the bands mentioned earlier. The instrumental sections are long enough to do more than just use up the time until the next vocal hook, and work wonderfully throughout with Marjan's vocals.
Of course, the songs are all little short of fantastic, opener Paradise Nox going straight for your ears with pure catchiness before changing course and aiming for the heart with Marjan's voice. Proggily building up to a brilliant solo, it's a great start to an album which only gets better with each listen. Liquid Under Film Noir retreats to a more typical Autumn sound, the instruments forming a single wall of noise before it breaks down two minutes in to form a beautiful, almost ambient soundscape. It's simply impossible not to love the likes of Skydancer, summing up that yearning and uplifting feeling which the best bands can produce and sounding like Lacuna Coil at their best, and Synchro-Minds, a ballad which leapfrogs from a How To Measure A Planet? foundation and touches Doom Metal before reaching a surprisingly mellow high.
The near-psychedelic The Heart Demands follows, those keyboards doing an excellent job and traces of Muse edging into the spotlight. Other highlights are the even-more-catchy-than-you'd-have-believed-possible A Minor Dance, hints of Tool in Cascade (For A Day)'s rhythm section, and Sulphur Rodents' downtuned heaviness allowing the guitarists to shine, especially in the wonderfully melodic centre section, touches of Ayreon-esque Prog hinted at here and there previously but in this case really elevating the song. One major plus point for me personally on the whole album is the lack of any useless male vocals that serve only to annoy and hold the female singer back – Altitude allow you to enjoy Marjan's voice completely.
Those more cynical than I (and they'd have to be pretty cynical to achieve that!) will sneeringly over-emphasize the similarity to Autumn's aforementioned countrymen and relegate Altitude to the same shelf where they put all the Goth Metal bands which aren't famous enough to be worthy of attention. This is missing the point entirely; fine, Autumn aren't the most original band around. But in a genre such as this, where everything depends on holding the listener spellbound, bands have a limited set of colours with which to create their works of art, and whilst some make a complete mess, Autumn have painted an aural masterpiece, instantly familiar yet something which you can lose yourself in over and over again without it becoming boring at all. It's great to be reminded that music can be truly beautiful from time to time, and whilst Autumn aren't quite as majestic as some, they're a band that fans of Gothic Metal should check out immediately, as well as Ayreon fans who don't mind the Prog being turned down a little. Altitude is the best Gothic Metal album I've heard for a while; I wouldn't be surprised if it worked its way onto my year-end lists.MySpace

HARTFORD -- Monday-- a bright sunny day for baseball in New Britain, quite the contrast from the visiting team's hometown.
Sugarland Skeeters first basemen Caleb Ramsey was born and raised in Houston and still lives there.
"You know it's fun to be up here playing but at the same time you kind of feel a sense of duty to be home and being able to help people. I have friends that are out on boats right now trying to get people out of their houses that are stuck in attic's on the roofs."
Photo Gallery
With area airports shut down the team, from just 30 minutes south of hard hit Houston is stuck on the road.
While the New Britain Bees were scheduled to head to Sugarland, Hurricane Harvey had other plans.
Now the four game series has been relocated to New Britain Stadium and the New Britain Bee's General Manager Gerry Berthiaume says you are invited.
"It's free baseball the admission is no admission it's based on your donation, it will go to the American Red Cross Relief fund."
The Bees staff will be collecting donations at each game during the series. Fans can also text REDCROSS to 90999 to give $10 to support the American Red Cross' disaster relief efforts in Houston and the surrounding area in Texas affected by the hurricane.
Something Skeeters players see as the real home run.
Skeeters third baseman Bryan Pounds says, "You see pictures of people losing their homes and then you see pictures of people helping, I mean coming from all over the nation to Houston just helping. It's awesome. You can't put words to it."
The Skeeters will serve as the home team for the series through Wednesday, with a single admission doubleheader on Tuesday starting at 12:05 p.m. while Wednesday's contest will be at 9:05 a.m.

WikiLeaks News
U.N official claims U.S is breaking international law over treatment over Bradley Manning.
by NPR:
The United Nations chief torture investigator said the United States was violating U.N. rules, after the country denied him unmonitored access to Bradley Manning, the Army private charged with leaking among other things classified diplomatic cables to WikiLeaks.
While serving in Iraq, Manning was stationed 40 miles east of Baghdad. He was arrested after video shot from a U.S. military helicopter was posted online.
Last April, as we reported, the U.N.'s Special Rapporteur on Torture Juan Mendéz expressed similar concerns, saying the United States would only allow a "private" visit rather than an "official" visit and also denied him the chance to visit Manning unsupervised.
Méndez, who is investigating complaints about Manning's treatment, made those comments in April to The Guardian. This time, as the U.N.'s news service reports, he's making them officially and saying the U.S. is breaking long-held U.N. rules when it comes to the investigation of torture. The U.N. reports:
At the request of Mr. Méndez and after several meetings, the US Department of Defense allowed him to visit Mr. Manning, but warned him that the conversation would be monitored.
He said such a condition violated long-standing rules that the UN applies for prison visits and for interviews with inmates everywhere in the world. On humanitarian grounds and under protest, Mr. Méndez, through Mr. Manning's counsel, offered to visit him under these restrictive conditions, an offer the detainee declined.
Mr. Méndez has, since the beginning of this year, been in negotiations with the US Government over unrestricted access to Mr. Manning, but he was last month informed that the Government was not in a position to accede to the request for a private and unmonitored meeting.
The United States moved Manning to a Kansas military prison in April, after the country held him in solitary confinement for 23-hours a day in a Marine Corps brig in Quantico, Virgina.
Méndez said the U.S. had assured him Manning's treatment is "markedly better" in Kansas. But, Méndez said, he needs to talk to Manning under conditions "where I can be assured that he is being absolutely candid."
"The United States, as a world leader, is a strong supporter of the international human rights system," he added. "Therefore, its actions must seek to set the pace in good practices that enhance the role of human rights mechanisms, ensuring and maintaining unfettered access to detainees during enquiries."
by NPR
I often wonder, would the Founding Fathers of the U.S be upset with Manning, or acclaim him for publicly outing the atrocities of world governments?
Manning deserves the same rights afforded to all accused individuals. Innocent or guilty, he is still a human being.

Pensions Increase 2017/18
Monday, 13 March 2017 10:18Public service pensions in payment, together with those that are deferred for payment at a future date, are indexed annually based on the annual change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) measured as at the previous September. In the 12 months to September 2016, CPI was 1%. As a result, an increase of 1% is to be applied from 10 April 2017 for pensions in payment and deferred pensions. The UK Government expects to lay the Pensions Increase (Review) Order 2017 later this month.

After a missing-persons report made by her nephew, Trent, on Saturday, Katherine Jackson, mother of the late Michael Jackson, is said to be with family. According to the Los Angeles Times, the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department made an announcement regarding her status early Monday morning.
The L.A. County Sheriff's Department continued to gather information and planned to speak with family members Monday after locating Michael Jackson's mother in Arizona, officials said. …
"She is safe and with family members," Sheriff's Deputy Don Walker read from a statement Monday morning.
This news comes after Paris Jackson wrote on Twitter on Sunday that she could not reach her grandmother for a week. Jermaine Jackson, however, had tweeted on Friday, July 20, that Mrs. Jackson is "fine" and "resting up" in Arizona. Katherine Jackson's lawyer told CNN said that the matriarch rarely goes 24 hours without speaking with her grandchildren.
Rebbie, Janet, Jermaine, Randy and Tito Jackson submitted a letter last week charging that their mother was being ill-treated by those in charge of their late brother Michael Jackson's estate as well as her manager and lawyer.

In a recent interview with the Atlantic, Barack Obama declared that Libya was his biggest mistake. An admission that is being peddled by the corporate media, as some sort of proof that Obama is the anti-Bush.
The arrogance and lack of genuine acknowledgment about the loss of life as result of his 'mistake' in Libya shows the perverse sense of entitlement that makes up the American political class. How lovely that President Obama has time to reflect on his legacy. It's a luxury that is certainly not available to the people of Libya. It just boggles my mind that the president of United States, Nobel PEACE Prize recipient and all, was so incredibly short sighted, that he staged a regime change in a nation without having a contingency plan. It's not like he didn't have advisors warning him, because he did. He created the chaos in Libya simply because he felt that the people of Libya deserved American style democracy.
Now you have a nation which has spiraled into chaos and is grappling extremism. Not just Libya but the entire Middle East region has descended into chaos under the Obama doctrine. Expecting Obama to feel even an ounce of shame is akin to actually believing in the American myth effectively manufactured and distributed by the US propaganda brigade.
Woe be it, that President Obama, the first black man in the oval and all that change jazz to actually man up and represent a new American conscience. No, instead he blamed and whined about how the British Prime Minister David Cameron and former French leader Nicolas Sarkozy let him down— Lets have a moment of silence about the fact, that the Libyan disaster happened because poor Barry was led down by dodgy Dave and little Nicky—According to the American commander and chief Dave became distracted and little Nicky only wanted to promote his country during the 2011 NATO-led military intervention. The lack of introspection was a new low, even by American standards.
Moving on from this, when asked what his saddest moment in term was, like the American physco he is, he played the emotional card and said that it was the Sandy Hook shooting. Now let me be clear, Sandy Hook was an incredibly sad moment in a series of gun related crime in America but that moment was really his saddest moment??? —-Que American sad violin music—But seriously, that's Barry's saddest moment? Not the fact, that due to his government's incompetence in Libya, and its decision to sponsor Libyan 'moderate' rebels the sociopathic group called ISIS came into existence? Since the fall of Gaddafi, who was killed in an Obama sponsored uprising, Libya has descended into near-anarchy, ruled by rival militias vying for power while the Islamic State group has gained influence in the country.
As Obama's term wraps up its interesting to see the democratic propaganda machinery coming out with fluff pieces about how Obama had it tough and how he has changed American policy regarding the Middle East and the Muslim world. The reality, and a sad one at that, is that under Obama the Middle East exploded and millions of innocent men, woman and children died and continue to die. Instead of showing any genuine remorse over this human catastrophe, the outgoing American president has indirectly conveyed the same stance as his predecessor. No Muslim country is safe from American aggression or interference, and no American president Democrat or Republican will be the change that the world and America truly needs.

Depression is not a normal part of aging, but it is a problem for many seniors.
Depression can affect up to 40 percent of nursing home residents in a given year, according to the American Geriatrics Society. Although seniors in residential settings experience a high incidence of mental health problems, they're unlikely to receive treatment.
"The people who say they're depressed will get that treatment, but many people will not say they're depressed because of the stigma," says Alisa Tagg, BA, ACC/EDU, AC-BC, CADDCT, CDP, president of the National Association of Activity Professionals.
Depression has many causes and almost always results from a combination of factors. Depressive episodes can vary in their degree of intensity and duration, and they can be a dominant problem or one of many problems related to a specific diagnosis and/or disability, situation or circumstance. Depression can be associated with psychological and physical distress, decreased participation in therapy and activities, decreased functional status and poorer outcomes.
It can be especially difficult for senior living residents who are likely experiencing several changes at once: mourning the loss of loved ones, dealing with chronic illnesses, adjusting to the facility, downsizing to a semiprivate room or a coping with a disagreeable roommate.
Since seniors often isolate themselves, few may notice they're in distress. And seniors are sometimes reluctant to talk about their feelings or ask for help—emotional problems weren't openly discussed in their era, even among family. Seeking help could be considered a weakness, deterring many from reaching out. Depression and mental health issues weren't well-documented until recently, treatments were limited or unproven and some illnesses weren't even defined in the medical community. Understanding the stigma and shame associated with depression explains why today's nursing home resident population is especially at risk. Caregivers must be proactive because diagnosis, intervention and treatment, especially among reluctant residents, can greatly improve their quality of life.
Despite its prevalence, depression can be difficult to spot. Physicians and other caregivers may be focused instead of on physical problems. Chronic conditions can cause, mask or exacerbate mental health symptoms. So can medications, which is why it's important for activities professionals and social workers to work together to identify signs and symptoms of depression, then tackle them head on as a team.
"Quarterly reviews with residents as regulated in the nursing home industry is a great time to capture that, but if we're seeing symptoms in between quarters, it's good for everybody to speak up and work together," Tagg says.
Tagg says activity professionals need to keep residents actively engaged as much as possible and limit how much residents time residents spend alone in their room. Connecting to others is important, as involvement can improve residents' quality of life. For those with dementia, staying connected may even slow cognitive decline.
Both dementia and depression present similar symptoms, so it's important for caregivers to determine the cause and appropriate treatment plan. Researchers aren't sure of the exact connection between depression and dementia, but it seems that what's good for the mood may also be good for the brain.
Activities can include hobbies or pastimes as well as new interests. Learning, growing and developing is important at any stage and every cognitive level because purpose, productivity and usefulness is connected to self-worth.
Those activities can—and should—be adapted to meet the needs of each individual resident. Activities should also emphasize what residents can do instead of what they can't. That could mean exercising from a seated position. Excitement, not preciseness, is the goal, Tagg advises.
"The more active people are, whether it's physically, mentally or socially, the better they will feel," she says.
Actively engaging residents may mean engaging staff, too. Asking staff members for ideas and giving them the opportunity to develop programs allows them to share their own hobbies and interests with residents. Staff can also help activities personnel spot differences in residents' mood and understand behavior triggers.
"Depression can happen at any time, so we have to be vigilant," Tagg says, especially during the time of year when we can all catch a case of the winter blues. "We just came off three months of holidays between Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas. Now what? We need programming to keep spirits high as the decorations come down, and we get back to reality again, so to speak."
The Memory Care Forums connect key professionals so that they may share best practices, field research, and practical solutions for improving quality memory care. Hands-on approaches, train-the-trainer sessions, experiential demonstrations, and rich discussions are at the core of each Memory Care Forum.

Now there is a revelation. I have consultant in my signature file. After poet but that is another matter. Several articles lately have gotten me thinking about moving to the "next level" whatever that is. Well this may be it. How does a designer move forward? By very definition - what I do is different every time. Admittedly part of that is my personality but part is the nature of my approach. So what can I do to change it? In a word - Leverage.

Bullfighting was something Alex Quesada watched on television when he was growing up in Spain. Not because it was interesting. But because as a young man, it's what you do. "The big corridas are just like the Super Bowl," he said.
On a visit to his home country five years ago, Mr. Quesada met Toñete, the 13-year-old son of a family friend. Mr. Quesada was struck by the boy's infatuation with bullfighting — he was already training to become a matador. Mr. Quesada wrote off Toñete's interest as a passing fancy, however. After all, his mother is a minor celebrity in Spain, and his father is a wealthy hotel developer.
"Why would a kid with all the education, all the possibilities for a career choice, and all the support he could want, choose to become a bullfighter in Spain today?" Mr. Quesada asked.
Last year, Mr. Quesada paid another visit to Toñete and learned that not only had the teenager stuck with bullfighting, but he had also performed regularly before large audiences at events across Spain. Mr. Quesada seized the opportunity. "Young Matador," is the result, and it offers a rare look into the 21st century evolution of what Mr. Quesada calls "a medieval blood sport."
Indeed, documenting bullfighting with its modern contradictions is what Mr. Quesada wanted to accomplish. Recently, the European Parliament voted to curb funding for bullfighting after years of activism from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals and other organizations.
For a tradition rooted in machismo and bravado, bullfighting now includes people like Toñete, who incessantly fiddles with his iPhone and frequently communicates on social media. To highlight the dissonance between tradition and modernity, Mr. Quesada used black-and-white in some photos to throw off the viewer's sense of time.
In one image, Toñete, shirtless and poised, practices in a field. His body is taut, and his stance almost poetic. Were it not for the fresh sneakers on his feet, it would seem as if the photo was from another era. "That picture could have been shot 100 years ago," Mr. Quesada said.
Toñete had only four bullfights during the two-week stretch in which Mr. Quesada followed him, so many photos showcase the behind-the-scenes life of an up-and-comer in modern-day Spain: Toñete getting changed into his traditional matador garb in hotel rooms; perfecting his moves with live cows at local breeding ranches. (Breeders look on to identify vacas bravas, or cows with fighting spirit, that are later bred to produce fighting bulls.)
Although Mr. Quesada admits he found Toñete to be spoiled at times, he was impressed with the level of concentration Toñete applied to his practice, and the transformation he made before bullfights.
"He gets very serious, very solemn, very quiet," Mr. Quesada said. "Which is probably something you have to do if you're going to be in front of a charging bull."
In one of Toñete's biggest encounters, Mr. Quesada estimated that 15,000 people were in attendance. What he recalled most was the kill. Traditionally, the kill comes after the bull has been weakened, and dizzied through fancy cape work. The most experienced matadors then deliver the coup de grâce with one plunge of the sword. But Toñete still has much to learn.
"He stuck the sword in five times," he said. "It was a mess."
Although Mr. Quesada renders many of Toñete's moves, poses and cape work with grace, he says it was hard to find any beauty in the fatal blow.
"The bull bellows," he said. "He makes this horrible sound as he dies," he said. "It's really upsetting."
Mr. Quesada portrayed this moment, as bull and matador stare each other down, their faces inches apart.
"I saw the communication," Mr. Quesada said, reflecting on the picture. "That bull was pleading for his life."

Its gorgeous and warm here. I find myself by the expansive shorelines of Brazil, yet all I can think about is going back home, sitting in a drafty little room, and literally getting back to the drawing board. I've been living overseas, miles from anywhere bearing semblance of home, finding myself in the most beautiful locales, working odd jobs-- some art related, some not; some for pay... or not. Being tossed from wave to wave around the world, floating and never settling, like bottle on the sea... sounds lovely, but it hasn't been as relaxing as I figured.
'Success is a series of small acts repeated everyday'. I roll that over in my mind from time to time.
When you look at your massive to-do list, when you're focused on the big picture of it all, filled with details and nuances, each twist and turn fashioning my brain in knots, its important to remember the creation process is really just a series of small acts enacted to infinity. Small bites will finish the pie. And even harder still to believe is that the ends are in the means.
2011 brought some amazing sights, discoveries, and a chance for me to hone my aesthetic. And now, all I can think about is creating my collection and the impending move-out doom come April. 2012 will be filled with tedious in-transition limbo, but everything will be building toward the launch of a collection and shop I am tentatively planning for November. Art and accessories, zines, small clothing items, etc. Thats the plan, and I'll be documenting it, hopefully, coming to fruition over the course of this year-- with major stalls in between. There's no telling the many set-backs that can pause a project, so I am letting the current take me where it may.

Thanksgiving. A day of good food, family, and... misconception?
Believe it or not, the Thanksgiving story we all learned is as fake as George Washington's wooden teeth. Was turkey actually served? Did the Native American people really come with good intentions? And was it actually called "Thanksgiving"?
Watch this video from the American Heroes Channel. The people who worked on this show did their homework, which is more that the average American high school student.

COMPANY NEWS; Honeywell Patent Suit Is Settled
By KENNETH N. GILPIN
Published: August 22, 1992
Honeywell Inc. announced yesterday that it had settled with seven camera makers it had accused of infringing its patented technology for autofocus lenses, and would be paid more than $124 million.
The agreements were negotiated separately with Canon Inc., the Eastman Kodak Company, Konica, the Kyocera Corporation, Matsushita, Nikon and Premier, Honeywell said.
Investors reacted positively to the news. On a day when broad market averages tumbled, Honeywell's stock price rose by $1.375, to $64.50 a share, on the New York Stock Exchange. Doing the Accounting
Christopher J. Steffen, an executive vice president and chief financial officer at the Minneapolis-based company, said Honeywell reported $13.9 million in gross proceeds from the settlement in the second quarter. The remainder will be reported in the current quarter, he said.
Royalties for camera sales by these companies will continue through March 28, 1995, Honeywell said, when its applicable autofocus patents expire.
The settlements yesterday follow a $127.5 million payment made in March by the Minolta Camera Company. Verdict in New Jersey
Minolta made the payment after a Federal jury in New Jersey found in February that Minolta had willfully infringed two patents for the autofocus technology, and awarded Honeywell $96.35 million.
The money awarded by the trial jury applied only to damages until the trial. It did not reflect compensation for sales outside the United States, interest or other matters that were included in the final settlement.
Following the Minolta award, Honeywell filed suits to force the largely Japanese camera industry to pay royalties for the autofocus technology, now an integral part of the modern camera.
Last spring, Honeywell said it would seek patent-infringement settlements from as many as 15 companies. Where Will They Spend It?
Analysts said Honeywell might use the proceeds from the settlements to continue a five-year, $600 million stock repurchase program announced late last year, or to make an acquisition in one of the company's three key businesses: space and aviation, industrial controls, and home and building controls.
But the awards do little to alter the company's longer-term prospects, the analysts said.
"After they have gotten all the cash from these suits, the issue going forward is what does their book of business look like," said Elliott Rogers, a vice president at Cowan & Company in New York.
"I think Honeywell's growth will be restrained by a slowdown in the aerospace business, which had been one of their key driving forces, as well as sluggish economic growth worldwide, which is dampening demand for their products."

Eye Opener (1950)
With fiery zeal we devote much energy to going through the motions of living AA. We speak on every occasion we are invited, we rush ourselves dizzy carrying the message to all who call on us, but in the process we sometimes neglect the one man we are most interested in – ourselves. Our AA has become muscular.
To reach ourselves requires quiet meditation, daily use of prayer and a comprehensive study of the Program and of ourselves.
Vernon Howard's SECRETS OF LIFE
"Higher insight alone knows when to say yes and when to say no."
Cosmic Command, # 350
Twenty Four Hours A Day OCT. 5,2016
Thought For The Day
Do I have any hard feelings about other group members or for any
other A.A. group? Am I critical of the way a group member thinks oracts? Do I feel that another group is operating in the wrong way and do I broadcast it? Or do I realize that all A.A. members, no matter what their limitations, have something to offer, some good, however little, that they can do for A.A. in spite of their handicaps? Do I believe that there is a place for all kinds of groups in A.A., provided they are following A.A. traditions, and that they can be effective evenif I do not agree with their procedure? Am I tolerant of people andgroups?
Meditation For The Day
"The Lord shall preserve Thy going out and Thy coming in, from thistime forth and even forever more." All your movements, your goingsand comings can be guided by the Unseen Spirit. Every visit to helpanother, every unselfish effort to assist, can be blessed by that Unseen Spirit. There can be a blessing on all you do, on every interview with one who is suffering. Every meeting of a need may not be a chancemeeting, but it may have been planned by the Unseen Spirit. Led by the Spirit of the Lord, you can be tolerant, sympathetic, andunderstanding of others and so accomplish much.
Prayer For The Day
I pray that I may be led by the spirit of God. I pray that the Lord
will preserve my goings and my comings.
As fire warms the body, as food strengthens us as sunshine raises our spirits so there is a subtle transfusion of some invisible force in such communion, weaving itself into the very warp and woof of our own mentalities.
The science of mind page 152
The real glory is being knocked to your knees and then coming back.That's real glory. That's the essence of it.

I remind myself that there are things God has to teach me yet, and
ask for the grace to hear them and let them change me.
— Sacred Space
I was a frisky colt.
He broke me with a quiet hand
on the side of my head.
The essential Rumi
ACIM Workbook Lesson 276 Insights
"The Word of God is given me to speak."
Recently I had a situation in which I perceived that someone rejected me. I observed myself analyzing that person's actions, trying to figure out the motives, attitudes and beliefs this person might have. I told myself I was trying to understand the person. But as I observed myself, I realized that there was something else going on beneath that. I believed that I must be guilty for doing something wrong that caused me to be rejected.
The attempt to try to "understand" the person was really an attempt to put the cause outside of me and therefore to try to relieve the guilt I felt. In believing that I have separated from God, I am rejecting God.
Does God feel guilty because I rejected Him? No, He sees me as holy and pure as Himself, as He created me with His Word. It is that Self He created that I must accept to be free of guilt. No attempt to find the cause outside of me can possibly relieve the guilt because such attempts are based on the false premise that the guilt is real.
If God knows me as pure and innocent as Himself, then guilt cannot be real. To know my Self, it is this I must accept. As I accept the Word of God, His absolute certainty that I am pure and holy as He created me, there will no longer be a need to see a cause for guilt outside of me. The illusion of guilt will be gone so there cannot be a cause. Thus will I be able to see my brother with the same purity and holiness that God gave me. For what I see is the one Self we share.
I stand together with my brother now, bathed in the Light of God's Love in Which we are united. We are one Self. There is no gap between us. We are His holy Son. The Word of God is given me to speak.
The Word of God says that we all are pure and holy as God. Would I deny that? Would I disagree with God and tell Him that He is wrong? Would I choose to see what is the opposite of God's Word? That is what I am choosing to do if I make real something in my brother that denies God's Word.
Jesus tells us to be open to receive God's Word into our minds. As we open our minds to receive God's Word, we just naturally extend God's Word because it becomes the only truth in our minds. Instead of duality and differences, we see that nothing has changed God's Word. No false ideas, no false stories, no false imaging, no ego projections of guilt can change the truth of the holiness and purity in God we are in truth.
Would I deny the truth today by making illusions real? Or would I accept God's Word and know that every Son is as pure and holy as God? Today I will practice using the power of decision to let the truth be true and let go of the ego's lies of separation. Today I would practice freeing my brother and myself of the insanity that comes from the split mind. God is. Love is. Nothing else is real. "The Word of God is given me to speak."
I had an experience very much like the one described above. I felt rejected by someone. I was very upset by it. I was so confused because I couldn't figure out what I had done wrong. I kept going over and over it in my mind, imagining myself saying things differently, but I just couldn't figure out where I had made a mistake. When I tried to give it to Holy Spirit for healing, I kept taking it back.
After praying about it, I realized that this had to be about him and not me and I finally got relief from my anxiety by praying for him. Every time I thought of him, I would see him in God's loving Light. After awhile I felt a lot better, but I still felt like I was missing something. As soon as I read the first two paragraphs of the above comments, I saw so clearly what was going on. I am always amazed at how willingly I will accept guilt; how easily I will see myself as wrong, even when it makes no sense.
I also recognize the pattern of seeing the problem as outside myself. I could have sworn that I wasn't doing that, but as soon as I read the above perspective, I laughed out loud at how obvious it was. I can just imagine myself playing a child's game, walking around with my eyes closed proclaiming, "I can't see anything."
I have also recently experienced a form of rejection or hurt from a person with whom I work with. As hard as I try to turn it over, let it go, and move on, I keep playing the same tape in my head over and over again. I, too, find myself analyzing this person's actions and my own. I ask myself if this person is a mirror image of myself, if this person's hateful attitude can be me at times, or maybe the ego part of me wants me to perceive this person as hateful in an attempt to distract me from seeing the oneness in us. I don't know.
I read the above perspective over and over again, and part of me understands what it's saying, but another part of me is not allowing the words to compute. In my particular situation, FOR NOW I've decided to discontinue my relationship with this person (although deep down I know that's not the answer), but there's guilt involved because of the fact that I know it's not the answer.
I think ending the relationship gives me a sense of safety, because I think I feel that at least I won't get hurt again. However, the Course teaches me that, as the Son of God, I cannot be hurt to begin with. So I know the ego is involved in this tangled mess I'm experiencing. Nonetheless, my awareness of knowing this need not be is still a huge step in the healing process. I still have to remember this is just that, a process.
No matter what you may be doing you are always free to whisper your love to God, until you consciously received His response. This is the surest way to contact Him in the mad rush of present-day life.
Paramahansa Yogananda
"Be quiet, pain and sorrow!
Let me find a remedy. I have to live,
as once dead there is no memory. And I want
to see my love and be with her. And I
want to remember our being together."

A colon polyp is a growth on the surface of the colon, also called the large intestine. Sometimes, a person can have more than one colon polyp. Colon polyps can be raised or flat.
The large intestine is the long, hollow tube at the end of your digestive tract. The large intestine absorbs water from stool and changes it from a liquid to a solid. Stool is the waste that passes through the rectum and anus as a bowel movement.

Some colon polyps are benign, which means they are not cancer. But some types of polyps may already be cancer or can become cancer. Flat polyps can be smaller and harder to see and are more likely to be cancer than raised polyps. Polyps can usually be removed during colonoscopy—the test used to check for colon polyps.

Paisley says Republic of Ireland was 'done over' during Brexit negotiations
Ian Paisley has claimed Taoiseach Leo Varadkar was "done over" last week by a combination of the EU, the UK and the DUP.
Writing in the Dublin-based Sunday Business Post yesterday, the DUP MP gave a punchy assessment of how last week's roller coaster negotiations unfolded.
"Last Monday morning Leo Varadkar believed he was about to pull off a major coup of having secured Northern Ireland harmonisation with the Republic of Ireland," he wrote.
"Four days later, a new agreement emerged with vast sections rewritten and a different relationship established.
"Frankly, whatever efforts are made to characterise this week, Leo Varadkar was done over by the EU, the UK and the DUP."
The North Antrim MP said that the DUP had been warning Dublin for weeks that they had "overstretched themselves".
"They were warned that the effort to make the border the centrepiece of the negotiations was misguided and that any discussion about the border was irrelevant until after the trade relationship part of the negotiations had been established.
"Friday's agreement effectively conceded that point," the MP wrote.
Mr Paisley praised the calibre of Irish business leaders, saying they would be easily capable of exploiting the opportunities of the new post-Brexit trading arrangements.
"I've never doubted the agility and ability of Irish businessmen to make the best out of that trading relationship," he added.
In his article, Mr Paisley also claimed that while a 'no deal' scenario would pose significant challenges for Northern Ireland, such an outcome would cripple the Republic's economy.
"Frankly, that should put the fear of the Almighty into the Republic to urgently cheer on a trade agreement that - instead of penalising them - actually works for them," he wrote.
"Let's face it: we want the ROI to be successful. It's just a pity that does not always appear to be reciprocated."

Hi all,
I found some candida myths and wanted some input and wanted to share. The most interesting one is the concept of sugar. I agree with EmpoweredSustainance in her blog post http://empoweredsustenance.com/sugar-its-your-friend/ that you should NOT starve your body of natural sugars and carbohydrates.
I implore you , look into the process of glycolysis and you will quickly see the extreme importance of natural sugars. This is why I have chosen to keep sugars/carbohydrates from fruits/honey/veggies in my plan to treat my candida. I am not an extreme case. I do have some fatigue and have had frequent vaginal thrush in the past, but I am a healthy, active, and high functioning individual searching for a cure for vulvar vestibulitis. I do eat too much REFINED sugars, that is for sure. So I have cut that out completely.
Before you jump on this bandwagon called the Candida Diet, take some things into consideration. Starving your body of natural sugars IS DANGEROUS to your health. Your cells live on that stuff! Second, Stevia and xylitol as natural sweetener have some pretty scary side effects: http://empoweredsustenance.com/is-stevia-bad-for-you/.
I think taking probiotics and antifungals combined with a grain free diet is a great option for treating candida, and that is what I'm going for. On top of this, I am also going low oxalate to see if that helps with my VV.
I don't share these two myths (no natural sugars/stevia and xylitol) without an understanding of the mechanisms involved in the body's metabolism of these two substances. I have a background in biochemistry and a graduate student in organic chemistry. It makes sense that you need natural sugars!
Please read the blog post and post your thoughts and comments. Anyone else keeping natural sugars and having positive results?

I still eat fruit, veggies, and potatoes while doing my plan. I'm having very strong die off symptoms just while doing my modified plan, so I wouldn't want to do any stricter or drastic than I already am!
My main problem with the traditional diet is that it's not sustainable for me. It would pretty much cut my diet to nothing and I can't sustain that for 12 months. I'm not going to cut out all fruit, some veggies, all or most grains, and all beans. That's just too much and it would mean that I would likely quit trying to deal with the candida altogether and wind up worse off in the long run.
I'm a vegetarian and a lot of treatment diets are basically meats and veggies. I'm not going to go down to eating just veggies for 1 year. That would likely impact my health worse than just doing a modified candida diet.November 13, 2013 at 2:17 pm #112591

Broccoli- one bunch 10 g Sugar
Cauliflower- one large head 16 g Sugar
Green Beans- One cup 3.3 g Sugar
Rutabaga- One large 34 g Sugar
Turnip- One large 7 g Sugar
You get plenty of sugar from vegetables, there's no reason to add in potatoes or sugary fruits, you're just slowing recovery time. Your body can adapt to the food source you consume. It can fuel itself from fats convert parts to use like sugar. The only thing you need to worry about it not going into ketosis, or keeping your carbs above 50-75 a day.
Potatoes are are 111% on the glycemic index or digested as pure sugar pretty much.November 13, 2013 at 3:04 pm #112592

For me, slowing down my recovery time is probably a good thing. I can't imagine dealing with any more detox symptoms right now than I already am.November 13, 2013 at 3:16 pm #112593
Yup no one is going around saying not to eat vegetables or carbs, there is no way to avoid consuming sugar on the diet.
But I think its pretty ridiculous to go out and recklessly eat honey and high sugar fruits just because of someone's blog. You'll be doing two steps forward 2 steps back.
I don't know what kinds of carbs you were planning on but if you are starting out consuming beans, squash, potatoes, etc. then its going to be difficult to get better initially.

Her recipes are not candida friendly either and this lady does not have any certifications or professional experience. She doesn't work in the health industry and treats herself via a diet that contains sugar.
If you look at the recipes portion of her blog they contain tons of junk under the sweet things post. This is kinda sad to see. Even under the baked things post, there is a ton of bad stuff. I would not be sold on honey being healthy for the diet, its going to benefit the yeast imho.
Good intentions but not everything on her site is true and correct for everyone.

Hi speaking of sugars, my doctor Lyme doctor just prescribed Lactulose to me, but I have systemic Candida. Is it okay that I take this being that it's a sugar? I hear some posts say that it doesn't feed Candida and others say that it does. Anybody from experience know anything about this? I have been unable to digest my food or have regular bowel movements unless I do colon cleanses so I am desperate to try anything, but at the same time I don't want to sabotage all the hard work I have done with following a strict diet. I've been treating Candida for almost four months now. I feel like poop, no pun intended.November 14, 2013 at 1:07 am #112605
Hello Chris,
You don't have systematic candida, because if you did, you would be fighting for your life in a hospital bed. What you should be calling it CRC (candida related complex).
As far as your question is concerned, I don't think we have a clear answer for your and you should consult a doctor.
-rasterNovember 14, 2013 at 1:39 am #112606
ChrisP22MemberTopics: 0Replies: 2
Well actually I felt like I was fighting for my life at several points but I couldn't really care less about what we should or shouldn't be calling it. As far as the doctor, it was a doctor who prescribed it to me, and as most people already know, when it comes to Lyme and Candida, doctors can't always provide the best answer. I am looking to see if anyone on this forum here has had any experience with it themselves. I understand that everyone is different, but it would be helpful if anyone who has experienced a Candida related growth problem or whatever you would technically call it, has actually taken Lactulose and what their experience was like. Are you representing everyone in the forum when you say that you don't have an answer?November 14, 2013 at 6:44 pm #112615
No I'm not representing everyone on the forum. If you do a search in the upper right hand corner and use the word lyme, there may have been 1-2 other people who have had lyme disease and candida in the past.

Hi Chris,
I don't have Lyme, as far as I know. I have been bitten by ticks many times as a child in the woods of my grandparents farm in Kansas so I suppose it is possible. I have been fighting ?candida? for the last 3 years and still feel like I am fighting for my life many days. I put the question marks around candida because based on my symptoms it is the only thing that makes sense, but according to all blood/stool tests, including the Metametrix gut labs, the only thing I have proven is that I have low Lacto bacteria, and almost non-existent Bifido Bacteria. No yeast/bacteria/parasite pathogens showed up in significant quantities on any tests.
I can't eat any kind of starch or sugar based products, natural or otherwise. Within a few hours of eating potatoes, brown rice, any kind of fruit (except green apples), etc. I start heading down hill with my symptoms (skin numbness, difficulty focusing, bloating), which happen to math the symptoms I get from anti-fungals and probiotics. It has taken me almost this entire year to work my way up from 1/4tsp of home fermented sauerkraut juice, to my current pro-biotic intake of 4bil CFU. The probiotics are the only thing that has gotten me from insane, actively damaging, constipation back to a reasonable, pain free regimen.
This differs from the auto-immune effects I get from eating gluten, dairy, caffeine, yeasts, a variety of vegetables, etc which are things like hives/skin rashes, elevated blood pressure, heart palpitations, panic attacks. Honey does double duty by giving me an immune reaction to the pollens AND "feeding" symptoms listed above.
Anyway, all that to say, the only way you are going to know for sure is by trying it. I was given Lactulose, along with Mannitol as part of the leaky gut challenge. I got my usual "feeding" side effects of skin numbness, difficulty focusing, bloating, etc from taking it. I ended up testing negative for leaky gut though, surprisingly.
Kudos to those of you in this thread that can eat starches and fruits. I agree with Raster that you are likely playing with fire, but if it is not giving you immediate fallout like it does me, then you may only be delaying your recovery. For me it is 2 steps forward and 4 steps back so out it goes. I subsist almost entirely on meats, non-starchy veg (primarily zucchini), almonds and stuff made from almond paste (paleo pancakes, yum) and water. That's it, and it sucks… hard…
I am not saying that the link from the OP is wrong, but in my 3 years experience dealing with this, any site that claims they have the right answers for everyone, are 99% sure to be full of it and just lead to more harm than good. You have to experiment on yourself and determine what does and does not work for you based on how you feel. I will say, I know what she is talking about as when I gave up sugar I ran down with fatigue, had low blood sugar type symptoms, etc for about 2 weeks. Coconut oil, snacking on almonds, and occasionally eating 1/4 banana when I felt it coming helped me get through it. After that 2 weeks I snapped out of it and I started burning fat like it was going out of style. I came to find out later that it takes time for your body to stop producing so much insulin and convert from a carb burning furnace to a fat burning one. For me, coconut oil as my primary cooking agent has alleviated most symptoms I had from going sugar free.
Sorry for the long post. This is my first time posting on here so I have no history on here as a reference 🙂
Good luck everyone!November 24, 2013 at 2:29 pm #112843

I'm not saying take my advice but this is my story,
Well i would have to say i made it aprox 6 months on the candida diet before i started to question myself whether the candida diet was the right path for my body, i got increasingly sicker and tired like never before,i always had a soft stool, i lost my muscle tone, couldn't work & even lost my job mid way through, i wasn't feeling better, the candida diet made me feel worse and i kept blaming the candida for it all. I believed so intently on no sugar, no fruit and all the other no,no,nos.
I didn't care how sick i was getting i must be on the right path, something that made me feel this crappy surly would give me a HUGE reward! i kept telling myself and others
I became a regular reader of this forum….
I went out one night about 3 weeks ago and saw this girl dancing, doing amazing energetic moves the way i used to be before the 'candida diet' so i jumped up and tried to bust out my regular dance tricks, but i couldn't keep up, i was a granny at 24 i had lost my happiness and my ability to express myself though dance, i was changing, i was'sick' girl. Before i had just had thrush, now i had thrush and i was the "sick" girl and this made me depressed.
Then one night i had pumpkin soup and i felt amazing its as if every part of me was smiling on the inside, it felt right and i tried a couple of more times, and then carrot,low sugar berries i started having energy thinking clearly,started to pass nice sold stools, exercising every day getting on with life and dancing again.
I say listen to the body and balance seems to work with life so why not the gut? Long term deprivation is not balance don't fool yourself.
Now its not all doom and gloom for the candida diets roll in my life.
During the candida diet i did get rid of my face pimples & my other skin condition. But maybe, just maybe this was because of cutting out gluten or dairy or even cutting out refined sugar and less to do with the candida diet in whole.
I cured wasn't before i started, or after i finished, BUT i feel so much better now.I am introducing foods back slowly though just so i can find anything that might irritate me, because its obvious something was & is.
I will get better with balance, this is my new theory.
I'm also eating smaller meals though out the day so my digestive system isn't over loaded.
I will have a sugar diet, but no refined stuff and i'm not going to overdo it on the fruit. Slowly and respectfully wins the race.

Hello -
I was referred to your group by a web developer that's had a lot of success with your site and services and I am trying this out for a Customer Satisfaction Survey -- and for some reason when i test it ((preview) on your site directly everything is working fine. The form posts (embeds) in my site fine, but it wont go to thank you message or trigger emails when submitting from my site??
Any ideas?
John Earnest
- JotForm SupportNeilVicenteAnswered on September 01, 2011 at 03:19 PM
Hi John,
The form is embedded inside another <form></form> tag in your page that is why it is not working properly. If you noticed, no matter how many times you submit the form, the notification e-mail is not sent, the thank you message is not shown, and the submission entry is not saved in the form's submissions page.
Please remove these tags if they are not needed. Also, it would make sense to use either iFrame or Embed methods for your form to avoid script conflicts. If you notice now, field validation in your form does not work due to these script conflicts.
To get your form's iFrame or Embed codes:
1. Go to Setup & Embed tab
2. Click Embed Form
3. Click iFrame or Embed
4. Copy the codes provided in the succeeding screen
Hope this helps. Let us know if you have other issues or concerns.
