Frequently asked questions
1.Do we keep signed versions in our files ?
1. Even if no signed paper versions of Forms C have to be sent to the Commission, do we have to keep signed versions in our files within our organisation?
From the Commission side, there is no obligation to even create paper versions of Forms C. The electronic-only transmission is the valid act and the e-Receipt is the proof. The need for paper versions might arise from internal rules and processes in your organisation.
Note: Keep in mind that there are two exceptions:
1.) You have to store the original CFS as paper version signed by the certifying auditor in your own files.
2.) If you are a beneficiary with a linked third party covered by Special Clause 10 than you have to keep a Form C of this linked third party printed and hand-signed by an authorised representative of the third party in your records.
2. Our organisation has no LEAR?
2. Our organisation has no LEAR. How can we register the persons authorised to sign Forms C (FSIGNs)?
Your organisation must first nominate a LEAR. Only the LEAR can register the FSIGNs. The details for nominating LEARs can be found on the Quick Information letter.
3. Appointment of so many roles (LEAR, PaCo, FSIGN) an overburden?
3. My organisation is small and we participate only in one FP7 project. The appointment of so many persons in different roles (LEAR, PaCo, FSIGN) seems quite an overburden.
You can nominate one and the same person in different roles (e.g. the same person can be LEAR of your organisation, PaCo and FSIGN for your project). Once a LEAR is nominated, the nomination into all other roles is very simple and quick (and can be changed at any moment online in the Participant Portal).
4. A third party reporting costs?
4. I have a third party reporting costs in my project (special clause 10). How does it work in this case?
A separate Form C for the third party has to be completed in the financial reporting module and transmitted by the PaCo of the beneficiary to the coordinator (without electronic signature). After the coordinator submitted the whole package to the Commission, the Form C of the third party must be printed and hand-signed by an authorised representative of the third party. This document must be kept in the files of the beneficiary (no sending to the Commission).
5. Signed before 1.1.2013 - have to monitor two different parallel streams of Forms C?
5. I am coordinating a multi-beneficiary collaborative project signed before 1.1.2013. Will I have to monitor two different parallel streams of Forms C (paper signed and only electronic) depending on the beneficiaries?
No. The transition to electronic-only transmission of Forms C can only be made for the consortium as a whole. Either your grant maintains the provisions under which it was signed (and then all beneficiaries will keep the traditional process with electronic submission and paper signature), or your grant is amended in order to move under the provisions of the new model grant agreement allowing for the paperless transmission of Forms C. In this case, all beneficiaries will report under the new regime. For practical help on how to amend your grant agreement you can follow the information enclosed.
6. Which is the correct FSIGN for his/her project?
6. I am the LEAR of a complex research organisation and would need to identify different financial signatories (FSIGNs) for different departments or institutes. How will the Participant Contact (PaCo) of a given grant know which is the correct FSIGN for his/her project?
When designating the FSIGNs for your organisation, the Identity and Access Management of the Participant Portal will allow you to encode comments that will help the PaCo to identify and select the right FSIGN for the project.
7. New process affect negatively the time I have to wait?
7. Will this new process affect negatively the time I have to wait to be paid as beneficiary or coordinator?
On the contrary, apart from the advantages in terms of simplified administrative processes, the only-electronic transmission of Forms C will help to compile a full report faster and therefore will allow the Commission to start its analysis earlier, hereby accelerating the whole payment procedure.
8. In my organisation, Forms C are always signed by two persons...
8. In my organisation, Forms C are always signed by two persons. How should we handle this in the new approach?
Only one act of electronic signature per Form C will be possible in the system. If prior to this authoritative signature your organisation requires an approval involving more than one person, the necessary processes must be organised internally in your institution.
9. (FSIGN) chosen for the project is absent
9. What happens if the financial signatory (FSIGN) chosen for the project is absent (leave, sickness etc.)?
The Participant Contact (PaCo) can assign more than one FSIGN to the project, so that business continuity is covered in case of absences. All FSIGNs assigned to the project will receive the notifications "Form C ready for signature". However, even if several FSIGNs are assigned to the project there is only one act of electronic signature, by the first FSIGN signing the respective Form C.
10. Go back to paper submission...
10. Can the consortium go back to paper submission after having signed the amendment to go for electronic-only?
No. Once the amendment on the paperless process has been accepted and signed by the parties, the consortium has to apply the electronic-only transmission.
Can the coordinator see the drafted versions?
11. Can the coordinator see the drafted versions?
Yes, the coordinator is able to see drafts and can comment before the form is transmitted and signed officially by the FSIGN of a beneficiary.
12. Can the coordinator reject an electronically signed Form C?
12. Can the coordinator of a consortium reject an electronically signed Form C of a participant?
Yes, coordinators can reject Forms C for corrections. In this case, the cycle starts again at the beneficiary (drafting - ready to sign – signing and transmitting) Beneficiaries can avoid rejections after electronic signature by checking the Form C in draft status with their coordinators (coordinators can view draft Forms C of other participants).
13. How can the LEAR indicate which FSIGN should be assigned to a given project?
13. How can the LEAR indicate which FSIGN should be assigned to a given project?
In the Participant Portal the LEAR will be able to nominate FSIGNs for the organisation and add comments (optional) about the scope of responsibilities or duration (ie. "Mr. Smith can sign for projects of Department X from 1st October 2011").
Can the LEAR limit the duration of the FSIGN nomination?
14. Can the LEAR limit the duration of the FSIGN nomination?
The LEAR (or one of his/her account administrators) can revoke the nomination of an FSIGN at any time, and as a consequence, the person will not be able to sign Forms C any longer.
15. Who can transmit the signed forms to the Commission or Services ?
15. Who can transmit the signed forms to the Commission or Services - the coordinator contact or the FSIGN of the coordinator?
Once the forms are signed by the respective FSIGNs including the coordinator's FSIGN, the coordinator contact will be able to transmit the whole package to the Commission or its services.
Can two FSIGNs sign the form?
16. Can two FSIGNs sign the form?
Once an FSIGN signs and transmits the form, it cannot be electronically signed by another person of the same entity.
Can the electronic forms be printed?
17. Can the electronic forms be printed?
Yes, the printing functionality remains as it is now. In addition, users will be able to download the forms with the e-receipt.
18. Who should be chosen as FSIGN signing electronically the Forms C?
The nominated persons must have the authority within the organisation to sign the financial statements.
19. Does the LEAR have to send a proof who can be assigned an FSIGN role within the entity?
No. The revised LEAR mandate gives the responsibility for identifying FSIGNs to the LEAR. The LEAR is nominated by the legal representative of the organisation, so that the chain of responsibility and trust is established.
20.Amendment concerning electronic signature for already on-going grant agreements...
What is the good moment to ask an amendment concerning electronic signature for already on-going grant agreements?
If a consortium of on-going grants decides to change to the use of the new electronic-only transmission, the coordinator has to initiate a simple amendment. However, it is advisable to start the amendment procedure well before or after the reporting period, as it is not allowed in the system to manage an amendment procedure at the same time with a reporting procedure. To avoid reporting (and payment) delays it would be better to do the amendment after the closed reporting.

LittleBigPlanet Vita could be the first step toward rekindling Sony's struggling PS Vita handheld console.
Sony's PS Vita faces two serious hurdles.
First, there's a very real shortage of quality games available for the console.
Second, the handheld console is priced too high for many consumers, especially given the scarcity of good titles and its cheaper competition (in both mobile and Nintendo.)
Top this off with AAA pricing on the games themselves, and Sony faces an uphill battle getting systems into gamers' sweaty palms.
LittleBigPlanet Vita may help change all that.
The game is the first step in a very, very good direction for the Vita. The zany platformer utilizes the system's touchscreens (both front and back) to create an extremely innovative and, more importantly, very fun handheld installment in the LittleBigPlanet franchise.
Honestly, at times one wonders how we ever played LittleBigPlanet without a touch screen.
And I say this as someone who has almost never enjoyed gaming with a touchscreen before.
Playing on the Vita actually helps me better understand my own criticism of mobile gaming.
With smartphone games, we're bound to extremely limited controls. A touchscreen is essentially just one button, after all, and no serious game can be made that utilizes only one button (even if that button allows various swipes and double-taps, etc.) The Vita is different.
For those of you who haven't had the chance to play around with one, the Vita is a magnificent piece of hardware. Boasting a big, colorful screen, the Vita neither feels to bulky or too heavy in spite of its size.
The front and rear touchscreens add a new dimension to the system that's only just now being explored by developers. But most importantly, it has nearly all the buttons found in a PS3 controller (missing only two of the triggers.) It's basically a PS3 controller with the screen and system built in.

Spore Prototypes Put Up By Maxis For Free Download 45
azuredrake writes "According to GameDaily, EA today released a free download of a Spore prototype known as 'BIOME.' The download site describes BIOME as a program that 'uses a language based on chemical stoichiometry.' It goes on to note that 'cells in a BIOME simulation change state the same way that chemicals change when exposed to other chemicals. Systems such as this can be used to simulate phenomena such as forest fires, disease epidemics, animal migration patterns and crystallization.' Note that the link provided in the article is, in fact, incorrect. Here is the correct link. Apparently, many more prototypes giving insight into the dev process of one of the PC world's most-hyped games will be posted in the future, so keep an eye on it."

I want every West Virginian who is looking for a job to find one. In order to achieve that goal we need to ensure our economy is growing. That is why I have voted for economic stimulus packages in Congress that cut taxes for everyone who pays them. I believe that when the government puts tax dollars back in the pockets of the taxpayers, those taxpayers will spend those dollars and stimulate our economy in order to provide for long-term economic growth in the future. I also support abolishing the Death Tax in order to ensure family businesses can be kept within the family and not sold off in order to pay an unfair tax.

ATI partners finally got a new toy, but unfortunately this was not enough to give them back their confidence in ATI The. Radeon HD 2900XT is barely beating the 8800 GTS and this card has already dropped close to a €300 price.
Most people on many forums said that they would be willing to pay €350 for a Radeon HD 2900XT but not much more than that.
Partners are stuck again, as R600XT wont sell like a hot cookie and Radeon HD 2600 and 2400 are still some month and a half away. It will be tough to make money on ATI cards, at least till Q3 2007. Hang in there.

I've no doubt that the folks behind DT wanted to do right by Gladstone really, really badly. His introduction is far more elaborate than the ones provided for, say, Gyro Gearloose and the Beagle Boys in "Treasure of the Golden Suns," and there are only two principals (Scrooge and Magica de Spell) in the cast besides him, giving him a clear field on which to make that all-important "first impression." Some major talents were involved in crafting the episode: no less than Jymn Magon, Mark Zaslove, and Bruce Talkington hammered out the story line, while veteran TV and fiction writer Diane Duane did the teleplay. At the time that "Dime Enough" was produced, Gladstone and Magica had never met in American Duck comics, which would have made the ep special enough even if it weren't Gladstone's featured bow. All the pieces seem to be in place for one of the series' best episodes... and, if you know nothing about Gladstone beforehand, then I can easily see you mining a lot of enjoyment out of this adventure. For those of us with that prior knowledge, though, things seem... well, a bit out of focus. The ep does have some logical problems independent of the characterization of Gladstone, but the real issue, at least for Duck comics fans, is the fact that the "decaffeinated" Gladstone we see here isn't "really" the Gladstone who was so obnoxious that Barks himself didn't particularly care for the character and dreaded the prospect of doing a full-length GLADSTONE GANDER comic book (which, fortunately, he never actually had to do) as "a real grind."
The divergence of opinion makes its presence felt in, quite literally, the opening seconds of the episode, in which Gladstone calls on Scrooge to take him to breakfast. This seems innocuous enough...
... but a quick look back at how Gladstone was handled in Barks stories reveals just how amazingly atypical this mundane meetup is. The other Ducks were, shall we say, not overly enthused about encountering Gladstone in casual social situations. When they weren't simply trying to avoid him...
... or, as was often the case with Scrooge, they were sizing Gladstone up in order to determine whether he was worthy of inheriting some or all of Scrooge's fortune, or just simply trying to jerk the arrogant lout's chain and get him to show some initiative for once.
Gladstone ultimately heads to Scrooge's mansion to fess up, and... we suddenly take a sharp left exit and a trip into Toontown. I'm not referring to the fact that Scrooge begins to lose money once Magica has taken his dime; after all, even Barks couldn't keep the extent to which Old #1 was literally "lucky" straight in his own mind, and the later episode "Once Upon a Dime" uses the "lucky dime" idea in a far more dubious manner than it is used here. What I literally mean is that we suddenly start getting a string of gags that would seem more appropriate in a Warner Bros. cartoon. I wouldn't have minded this as much had the rest of the episode not been FREE of such logic-defying gags. Even the "nasty" triphammers that could have crushed an unwary passerby in the Money Bin are at least semi-canonical, given that Scrooge has used things like cannons, land mines, and pools of sulfuric acid as traps in the past. I wonder why the writers didn't recognize the abrupt shift in tone here and didn't try to make the ep's overall tone a bit more uniform.
The inevitable showdown with Magica features one off-the-wall idea of its own -- the "fire-breathing bunny" -- but I can't really complain too much about this sequence as a whole. The money clip makes a clever comeback at the climax (those "smallll details" again), Scrooge makes ingenious use of Gladstone's bum luck to help the two of them, and we learn that Magica may be suffering from a case of "trap envy," given that she throws her own series of physical perils at the Ducks' webbed feet. (Since Magica has magical powers, this reliance on physical traps might seem a little strange, but she does mix in a few supernatural stingers, such as the rock-crushing gambit.) Only three things mar the finale: too much talkiness (especially when Magica tells Scrooge at length how poor her amulet is going to make him, even as he plans to "flash" her with the money clip), the aforementioned "Gladstone's restored luck blocks Magica's attack" bit, and the indecent haste with which the villains give up. I think that Greg was picking up on the last-mentioned point when he commented that the ending "buried" Magica as a serious threat (though, IMHO, her appearances in "Nothing to Fear" and "The Unbreakable Bin" were certainly threatening enough). First, the "doused" giant rabbit meekly allows Scrooge and Gladstone to escape, even though it could easily have pursued them and tried to crush them; then, a bitching, clumsy Magica lets Scrooge and Gladstone literally walk away from the scene of battle. Even IF you can't zap Gladstone, Magica, what's to prevent you from renewing your attack on Scrooge? The warranty may have run out on your wand, but what became of all those potions, elixirs, and such that were used as weapons in "Send in the Clones"? Did Poe claim possession of them when he took his leave of you, never to appear again, apart from his cameo in that episode in which everyone and his grandmother made a cameo?
I can't honestly regard "Dime Enough" as "just one of those episodes," as GeoX apparently does. Unlike Gladstone's luck, this IS something that can reasonably be interpreted as either "good" or "evil." It all depends on what your definitions of those terms are in context.
(GeoX) A Ducktales episode named after a novel in which a guy has sex with his clone? I'd buy that for a dollar!
Next: Episode 58 (or should I say, Episode 58 revisited?), "Duck in the Iron Mask."

PolyChrome – definition: being of many or various colors.
Created in 2009, this extremely experienced pop/rock trio lives up to their name. Not only have the members come from diverse and colorful musical backgrounds ranging from the Mountains of Virginia to the streets of Philadelphia & Baltimore, but they know how to produce a colorful array of sound on the stage as well.
PolyChrome was Voted by Clear Channel radio listeners as "Favorite Band" in 2012, awarded the "Silver Award" for 2012 by readers of The Roanoker Magazine, as well as "Best Local Band" by both Roanoke's City Magazine and The Roanoke Times Music Poll, thanks in part to numerous appearances on local television and radio programs, and over 450 live shows during the past three-plus years, PolyChrome is as in tune with their audience as a band can be. The members of the band, Sean Bera - Vocals & Guitar, Crockett Henley - Drums, and Perry Mabry – Bass Guitar, take time to talk to the crowd between sets and listen to each thought, idea, and request, so that future events can be even better and more personalized to the listeners.
Often described as "The Original Cover" Band, PolyChrome audiences are taken on a musical journey from one song to the next as the band explores genres from the 60's Beatles, to the 80's Men at Work, to the present with Gavin DeGraw, Bruno Mars, or even Ke$ha. Add some rejuvenated renditions of Johnny Cash's "Ring of Fire" or Soft Cell's "Tainted Love" and the PolyChrome effect becomes unmistakable.
PolyChrome released their 2nd CD, Wild and Woolly, in June of 2012, and the collection is as diverse as the artists they cover onstage. The songs are a blend of everything the band has grown up around over the past two decades, which has allowed PolyChrome to share the stage with such a wide range of artists as: Sister Hazel, John Popper (Blues Traveler), Bowling for Soup, Blackberry Smoke, Fishbone, Mother's Finest, and countless others.
A highly entertaining stage presence, complete with self-ridiculing humor, and both individual and crowd participation, will no doubt have you asking yourself, "Why haven't I heard of these guys before?" You may even wonder if your iPod was borrowed to create the set list for the night!

Peterborough could hand a debut to striker David Ball for the visit of promotion rivals Southampton.
Ball joined on transfer deadline day from Manchester City and will be in the squad against the Saints – though he will struggle to force his way into the starting XI.
Posh scored five in midweek against Sheffield Wednesday so manager Darren Ferguson will stick with the front three of George Boyd, Craig Mackail-Smith and Lee Tomlin.
Fellow new signing Paul Jones will again be on the bench as cover for number one goalkeeper Joe Lewis.
Defender Gabriel Zakuani is still three weeks away from a return after dislocating his shoulder while striker Dave Hibbert also remains on the sidelines.
Hibbert dislocated his knee back in November and is still not fit enough to return.
Southampton captain Dean Hammond should return to the starting line-up for the trip to Peterborough.
The midfielder proved his fitness following a calf injury with a second-half run-out as a substitute during Tuesday's 2-1 win at Exeter.
Winger Jonathan Forte, a deadline-day signing from Scunthorpe, will be added to the squad.
Brazilian striker Guly do Prado missed out in midweek with a slight knock and will be checked over.
Midfielder Adam Lallana has returned to training following a knee injury and could be on the bench, with manager Nigel Adkins wary of rushing him back too soon.
Striker David Connolly is also in light training after undergoing a hernia operation but needs to build up his fitness.

When it comes to efficiency and comfort, sometimes it helps to centralize things a bit. So, I've been working with Mark Duncan, Facilities Services Manager in Florida, on the implementation of a complete energy management system. We selected ASI, which allows us to remotely monitor HVAC systems at the selected properties. Since it works with our existing equipment, ASI is a cost-effective choice for us.
But what exactly is this ASI system, and what's it going to do for us? ASI is essentially an energy management computer that removes a lot of guesswork! With the ASI system, Mark can log on remotely to see how much energy is being used at the properties in real time. ASI also scores that data and creates reports for review. These reports help keep us on track to save energy and reduce operating costs.
Complete Energy Management
The reports generated by ASI are useful for helping us keep track of our energy use, but the real-time monitoring has another great benefit: alarms! If too much energy is being used by an HVAC system, an alarm is reported. When an alarm comes up, the ASI system automatically emails the site manager, district manager and Mark. These alarms help us uncover HVAC inefficiencies, and get them fixed quickly. Comfort is never sacrificed!
Our Five Storage Properties Currently Using ASI
We acquired two properties with the ASI system already installed: Extra Space Storage Palm Harbor and Extra Space Storage Carrollwood. So, we were familiar with ASI. Knowing that the system was already working for us, we decided to install it in three test properties with the highest electrical bills: Extra Space Storage North Miami and Extra Space Storage Miami Gardens and Extra Space Storage Bonita Springs. We wanted to lower the electric bills at these properties without sacrificing comfort, and using ASI seemed to be the best way to beat the Florida heat without spending so much!
Staying away from High Demand
The ASI system monitors energy demand, automatically making some adjustments when needed. Monitoring demand is very important. For a commercial building, the largest portion of the electrical bill is often determined by demand.
The electrical bill reflects the highest demand during any 15-minute window of the month, not the total kilowatt-hours (kWh) consumed. So, if a property were using 150 kW for only 20 minutes in a month, even if the rest of the month averaged a modest 50 kW, the charge on the bill would reflect that high demand of 150 kW! As you can see, it's important to stay away from high demand.
Energy Savings with Lowered Demand
We've reduced our energy costs at these test sites by lowering our demand, and fixing the inefficiencies unveiled by the ASI system. While exact figures vary by site, we've experienced around a 35 percent reduction in energy demand. That reduction will trim thousands of dollars from the electrical bills each year. Plus, the payback for installing the ASI system is just 24 to 30 months.
I'm excited about what's happening so far with our test properties in Florida. We're considering expanding the use of the ASI system to the Baltimore area, where we would save not only on cooling costs, but on heating costs as well! I'm looking forward to seeing how we can further implement complete energy management systems to help us uncover inefficiencies, save energy and lower operating costs. After all, there's nothing like being efficient and comfortable at the same time!
Are you surprised that demand plays such a big role in the electrical bills in commercial buildings? How are you working to lower your electrical bills?

February 26, 2013 (KHARTOUM) – A senior Saudi Arabian official unleashed a barrage of attacks against Ethiopia saying that the Horn of Africa nation is posing a threat to the Nile water rights of Egypt and Sudan.
- Saudi deputy defence minister Khalid Bin Sultan (Al-Riyadh)
"The [Grand] Renaissance dam has its capacity of flood waters reaching more than 70 billion cubic meters of water, and is located at an altitude of 700 meters and if it collapsed then Khartoum will drown completely and the impact will even reach the Aswan Dam," the Saudi deputy defense minister Khalid Bin Sultan said at the meetings of the Arab Water Council in Cairo.
"Egypt is the most affected party from the Ethiopian Renaissance dam because they have no alternative water source compared to other Nile Basin countries and the establishment of the dam 12 kilometers from the Sudanese border is for political plotting rather than for economic gain and constitutes a threat to Egyptian and Sudanese national security "the Saudi official said.
The massive $4.8 billion dam is under construction and is scheduled for completion in 2015. It lies close to Sudan's eastern borders and has a power generating capacity of 6,000MW and when completed it will enable Ethiopia to export more power to its neighbours.
Egypt fears that the Nile dam will reduce the flow of the river's waters further downstream and Addis Ababa has long complained that Cairo was pressuring donor countries and international lenders to withhold funding.
An international panel of experts is set to announce its findings on the impact of Ethiopia's Grand Renaissance Dam on the Nile's flow in May 2013.
The Saudi deputy defense minister went further saying that Ethiopia is keen on harming Arab nations.
"There are fingers messing with water resources of Sudan and Egypt which are rooted in the mind and body of Ethiopia. They do not forsake an opportunity to harm Arabs without taking advantage of it", Prince Khalid said.
"The establishment of the dam leads to the transfer of water supply from the front of Lake Nasser to the Ethiopian plateau, which means full Ethiopian control of every drop of water, as well as [causing] an environmental imbalance stirring seismic activity in the region as a result of the massive water weight laden with silt withheld in front of the dam, estimated by experts at more than 63 billion tonnes," he added.
The Saudi official added that Nile basin countries calling for reallocating Nile water shares is a "real threat" to Egypt's future.
"The information is alarming and it is important that we do not underestimate the danger at the moment and its repercussions in the future," he said.
It is unusual for Saudi officials who are known for being composed to make such damning criticism of other countries. It is not clear whether today's remarks indicates hidden tensions with Ethiopia.
Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi and the Democratic Republic of Congo, along with Ethiopia, signed an agreement to overturn British-colonial-era agreements dating back to 1929.
These gave Egypt and Sudan 90 percent of the Nile's water flow and the power of veto over dam-building, even though 85 percent of the river's water flows from the Ethiopian highlands.
Ethiopia and the upstream states contend they need more water because of burgeoning populations, industrialisation and agricultural projects.
Water needs are expected to rise as the Nile basin population is projected to reach 654 million by 2030, up from 372 million in 2005, according to UN estimates.

Art fairs are no longer just art fairs. The best of them flourish a range of entertainment – performances, screenings, music, panel discussions and VIP programmes offering visits and private views, receptions and parties galore. This all-singing, all-dancing "after-party" phenomenon has not quite caught on at antiques fairs, which still tend to confine themselves to charitable gala previews, loan exhibitions and the odd lecture. And of course they have always provided a convenient excuse for a long weekend in one of the great cities of the world.
Fifty years ago those cities were London, Paris and New York; these days the greatest international fairs are as likely to lure you to Maastricht or Basel (the latter stages pre-eminent ancient art as well as modern and contemporary fairs). Another in the list is Brussels: in the last five years or so Brafa – the Brussels Antiques and Fine Arts Fair, now in its 56th year – has transformed itself into one of the most agreeable events in the international fair calendar.
Brafa has the additional appeal of offering two cities. A half-hour away by train is Antwerp, one of the most picturesque and most unsung of historic European cities. Here the Onze-Lieve-Vrouwekathedraal (Cathedral of Our Lady) houses Rubens's astounding, monumental "Raising of the Cross" and "Descent from the Cross", and a collection of Renaissance and baroque altarpieces from the Royal Museum of Fine Arts, temporarily rehung where they were placed originally.
Of the city's dozen or so museums, a favourite is the Museum Mayer van den Bergh, which includes the collector's greatest discovery, Pieter Breughel the Elder's strange, apocalyptic "Mad Meg".
This collection invariably springs to mind at Brafa. The fair has always been strong on northern sculpture and the applied arts, and this year offers, if not a Pieter Breughel the Elder, then an evocative riverscape painted in oil on copper c1599-1613 by his son Jan Breughel the Elder (Galerie Florence de Voldere). By contrast, expect the world's best tribal art and art of the comic strip (two local specialities) and a feast of 20th-century decorative art and design plus tapestries, carpets and textiles. Highlights include some unexpected minimalist abstract kilims from the remote Mazandaran province of Iran, woven in the first half of the 20th century and only discovered by the western carpet trade about a decade ago (N. Vrouyr).
In all, some 120 dealers from 11 countries (54 of them Belgian) are offering everything from antiquities to contemporary art. Brafa allows the repeat attendance of only 20 per cent of participants, which makes for a rotation of exhibitors. So this year, for instance, stalwart antiquities dealers Phoenix Ancient Art – offering an Aegean marble idol from the 3rd millennium BC – is joined by the likes of Galerie Chenel, Roswitha Eberwein and coin specialists Tradart, the latter offering a silver tetradrachm featuring the nymph Arethuse struck around 450 BC in Syracuse.
Among the new exhibitors showing medieval sculpture and works of art is the London-based Australian firm of Mullany, with, for instance, an affecting and well-preserved Burgundian limestone sculpture of the Virgin dating around 1450 and complete with original polychromy. Another medieval specialist, De Backker, presents one of the most intriguing discoveries of the fair, an anonymous "Nativity" of around 1500 based on a lost work by the great Early Netherlandish master Hugo van der Goes.
Asian art ranges from a 10th/ 11th-century sandstone Dancing Ganesh from central India (Jacques Barrère) to a striking group of 19th-century Japanese Bachi (the sticks used to play taiko drums) carved in whalebone, ivory, tortoiseshell, buffalo horn, rosewood and cherrywood (Finch & Co). As for 20th-century highlights, they include a previously unrecorded Picasso, "Still Life with Fruit Bowl and Guitar" of 1922 (Manuel Barbie). Epoque Fine Jewels has an exquisite Lalique dragonfly pendant of 1903 confected out of glowing plique-à-jour enamels and centred on a large oval aquamarine, while one of the most recent exhibits is a unique sofa on twisted gilt-bronze legs by Garouste and Bonetti.
This chic but understated fair is not a place for the showy and the sensational; what it offers are high-quality works of art to an audience of serious collectors in a friendly atmosphere.
Runs January 21-29; www.brafa.be

more questions about my dodge transmission
as of right now i have stock gears 3.55 with 37" tires so yes iam expecting a loss of power and such but it wasnt as bad before i submerged my trans with water
ok so iam just wondering what you guys think of what its doing now... when i take off from a dead stop 1/2 of the time it feels normal, 1/2 of the time it has like a serious loss of power it'll be revvin up to around 2500 before it even starts really movin, but if i mash on it it'll jump an go once i get to any kind of speed, it never seems to slip at all it downshifts properly now people have suggested torque converter --- plugged exhaust (catalytic) and other things... but iam wondering if a power flush from a shop might fix it ..... maybe still water in it? i dropped the pan myself about 9 times changing the fluid and filter to try adn get all the water out.. |

keep your stick onthe ice
i have been told once you get water in an auto trany they will probly be junk in a short time. I guess water acts with the glue on the bands and breaks it down. I had a blazer that i did a flush on after the cooler in the rad busted it slipped a little at times then poof no more moving that one went pretty fast
March 23rd, 2006, 08:21 AM | #3 |
Covered in mud...
If I understand right, you submerged the trans, and didn't completely drain and flush it?
Note what happened to Grandman's submerged trans a week ago, (behind a 5.2 magnum...)... its junk. Having 3.55 gears and 37s is seriously overstressing the trans to begin with. Causes the fluid to really heat up. I would suspect that if you look at the fluid temps they would have been up above safe numbers anyway. |

That's like changing the oil by replacing only the amount held by your filter each time. I hydrolocked my Ram in a deep hole over a week ago and that trans has not been used since. I have no strawberry shake on the dipstick at all, but I still intend to be towed into an oil change shop bay for a power flush before I put it into any gear. You may have already done yourself in, but from what you describe it sounds like the torque converter is not engaging correctly anymore, but finally locks up under heavier throttle. |

when i said dropped the pan, (even though this is not good.. ) i did start it up and shift through the gears and get the fluid flowing all over .... i didnt just redump the same fluid i jus put in there....
March 24th, 2006, 03:27 PM | #7 |
Your kick down lever spring may have fallen off. Allowing it to downshift some of the time. If you take off in manual low and upshift manually does it do it every time or still feels like it is slipping? You may have gotten lucky with the trans flushes, but I have only known 2 others to make it without having to be rebuilt. Those are pretty bad odds. If yours does survive, consider yourself lucky.

I got a full flush from a shop last nite and its been really great ever since.... <-- I hope!! |

Hooyman Saw Review – Hooyman 10ft Saw
I've had the Hooyman 10ft Saw for about 10 months, and thought I'd share with you Freaks what I think about it. I like the Hooyman saw, and it works well for its purpose – but it is not perfect.
- The first, and biggest advantage in my opinion is that it is extendable out to almost 10 feet. It's very quite, and packs well. The 10ft model retracts down to 28".
- The Hooyman Megabite blade is sharp, and works well – but does not keep an edge forever, like most blades. After a day or two of heavy use, it would behove you to take 10 minutes resharpen the blade. The blade is made out of premium high carbon steel and is a good blade for the price of the saw. It features a four edge tooth design
- The Hooyman 10ft Saw comes with a very nice carrying sling, that makes carrying easy and simple over your shoulder.
- The saw portion of the Hooyman Saw detaches to use as a handsaw, and works ok, while not overly comfortable to use, it does work.
- The saw is not exposed all the time, and does fold in to protect the blade during transport.
- The telescoping saw is very strong, and does not bend or "give" when sawing big sized limbs or branches. The aircraft grade aluminum features an I-beam design this is tough and works well.
- The positive locking mechanisms on the Hooyman Saw work very well, and does not slip or slide when sawing.
- The Hooyman Saw is lightweight and weighs in at 2.95 pounds.
- The Hooyman 10ft Saw, is not 10ft. I'm not sure how in the world you can call a saw 10ft, when it's not 10 feet long?
- The Hooyman Saw is OK when it comes to using it strictly as a handsaw – but it could me more comfortable and ergonomic to use. Although it does suffice.
- The Hooyman Saw does not feature a pruning or lopping device that would be beneficial in cutting the smaller diameter branches that "give" when force is applied from above. This would be a great feature to have, and would allow for quicker, and quieter cutting of limbs and branches.
Overall, while NOT perfect – it does suffice and I do believe is Outdoor Freak worthy. It will be interesting what features Hooyman adds in the future, or what other folks in the industry will come up with to address the shortcomings. This saw is an acceptable saw that would work for a bowhunting saw or deer hunter that needs a light saw for mobility.

Pros: Size, SQ, Construction, Bass Boost, Battery Life
Cons: None unless you're picky
Like the title says, this CMoy from JDS is killer! Great sound in a small package for less than half of what many comparable amps cost. It adds a nice warmth and depth to the XBA 3s and GR07s I've tried. The 9V easily powers most headphones, even those that are harder to drive. The bass boost is rarely needed, but if you want some extra bump, the CMoy has plenty to go around.
Like many portable amps I was wary about the battery life, especially for something so inexpensive. No worries anymore. I has been playing since mid-morning and it is now 6:45. Also, the rechargeable battery will allow it to play while its charging - a serious step up over Fiio's amps.
The volume knob is very sensitive and the amp will turn off automatically if the headphone cable is disconnected. Great feature!
The only things I can imagine would bug some people (who shouldn't have ANY problems in this price range...) is that the Altoids tin is a little funny (although unmarked tins can be purchased). The lack of gain or impedance control has been mentioned but honestly for everything else you get, that's like missing the sprinkles, on the icing, on the cake.
Thank you Jon for a great product!

From: Eric M. Ludlam <eric@si...> - 2005-06-09 12:44:59
Hi all, semanticdb can certainly solve the problem of finding parent classes. The main parser does not try to resolve parent names during the parse but instead just saves the name away for later. The goal is to make the parse as fast as possible and make the user wait if they want something complicated, like clicking on the parent name in ECB. (This answers Dan's question on parse-time name resolution.) While semantic-go-to-tag will solve the direct problem mentioned by Dan's example, it does not currently use semanticdb. Using semanticdb would be a reasonable addition to semantic-go-to-tag. As for the "When will cedet 1.0 stable" be out? I'd love to say "now!", but I haven't had much time. I've been making the pre-releases, and trying to solve all the install & setup problems people have. The feedback has been useful, but I've been having trouble keeping up lately. I will, however, time the 1.0 release against when I get my employer release, which would make the 1.0 release fully assigned to the FSF for inclusion with Emacs. As that paperwork is in the process right now, it will depend on how fast the legal department is at my company. For Dan's purposes of solving tag scope and structure issues, you can use C-c . j (local jump) or C-c . J (jump) as basic ways of finding out how tag searching works (ie, if you can jump to the tag by name, it is findable via normal means.) The next tool is `semantic-analyze-current-context'. This will give you lists of things semantic can 'find', and let you know if all the analyzer overrides are working as expected. (ie, pulling in the correct scopes.) Next, it's just a matter of using C-M-: with hand written semanticdb queries. You can use `semanticdb-find-toggle-logging', and `semanticdb-reset-log' to see what tables it is using, and why it may fail to find your tag. In general the parse output looks fine to me, so we should investigate failures in the searching routines. If ECB is using a non-deep semanticdb-find call, this would be a main cause for the tag name not being found. To be clear, ECB should not use a deep search. A deep search will flatten the tag hierarchy (See `semantic-flatten-tags-table') and then search that. I guess the right answer is that ECB would first place the cursor in the context of the child class (for which he has a valid tag) and then use a combination of routines like `semantic-ctxt-scoped-types' to learn that the containing module is in scope, so he can refine the search. I'm somewhat surprised this hasn't come up in C++ yet with the namespace issue. The following example has exactly the same problem as described by the Ruby problem: ------ namespace moose { =20 class fee { int fi; }; class fie : public fee { int fi; }; } ------ Klaus, we should probably work out an ideal way for this to work. You could easily switch to a deep search, but you would miss out on multiple conflicting namespace names. Using an active scope would be better, but more complicated.

I have used a Sony STR-DE698 for years and was very pleased, but had to upgrade when I purchased a new 1080p plasma TV. The DG-520 is the low end of Sony's new line of receivers. I needed 2 hdmi inputs and the 520 has 2. What they didn't say is that the hdmi ports are pass through only (sound has to be input separately, even though the hdmi is carrying sound). Also, one hdmi port is labeled DVD and the other is BRD (for Blu Ray Disc). Sony tells me the BRD port can be used for any hdmi input. Because of the labeling problem, I just connected the sat receiver and the dvd player's hdmi cables directly into the tv, and ran an optical cable for sound from the tv back to the receiver. Works fine. In retrospect, I think I should have spent a little more and gotten the 720, for more inputs, etc., but I'm quite pleased with the 520. It is very similar to the DE698 in performance and features.
ABT was very prompt shipping product. I chose regular shipping and still had my order in 6 days.
Excellent value for the money
[...]I read numerous reviews of the STRDG520 and chose it because it permits hdmi pass through at 1080p. I only need 2 hdmi inputs, dvd and direct tv hd, so I figured I was good to go, and the price was great. When it arrived, however, the instructions said one HDMI was for DVD and the other for a Blu Ray player. Satellite input was allocated to component inputs, which don't come up to 1080p. (I realize that Direct TV isn't broadcasting in 1080p at present, but someday, perhaps) I emailed Sony support and they replied that it was fine to hook the hdmi from the directv to the Blueray input, so I'm a happy camper once more. Happy with ABT and Sony.
Prompt delivery, excellent packing and cushioning.

Giving nurses and CNAs a helping hand
October 06, 2014Writers rely on pen and paper. Carpenters count on a hammer. Ask a healthcare worker what their most valuable tool of the trade is and they'll tell you - it's all about their hands. When you look at today's rapidly changing workforce and day-to-day demands, hands shouldn't be taken for granted.
The gems before you
June 25, 2014When I was a student nurse, I had a professor who said, "You will never know what gem is before you, unless you are willing to open your eyes and your heart." Being young and excited about being a nurse, I smiled but really didn't think much of what she said, at least until I met Dorothy.
Nurse and therapist are two of the best jobs in the US — or are they?
February 04, 2014Registered nurse, physical therapist and nurse practitioner are three of the top 10 jobs in the United States, according to new rankings from U.S. News and World Report. This might come as a big surprise to anyone who's been following the recent news in McKnight's.

Pathway Health launches 'Grow Your Own' MDS program
September 18, 2013It is estimated that by 2020, there will be a 26% increase in demand for MDS coordinators. Consulting company Pathway Health Services has started a program to help meet the demand for MDS professionals.
Burnout equals HAIs and higher costs
August 06, 2013A team of researchers at the University of Pennsylvania used a survey tool called the Maslach Burnout Inventory to analyse nurse burn out, or what they defined as a "burnout nurse". Now, if you ask, me, just look around any hospital or especially any nursing home and you don't need a survey tool to tell you that you're working your average nursing staff to death.
How Wingate Healthcare resolved every eldercare provider's worst nightmare
June 21, 2013Staff call outs are a nursing staff's worst nightmare and are a prime reason that employee turnover for staff schedulers remains at a high level. Staff call outs often happen at the last minute and always at the worst time. Researchers found that absenteeism rates among nurses can reach 12%.
Breaking down the binaries
May 03, 2013We have a tendency to think of someone as either healthy - and therefore without an urgent need for our healthcare or senior care system - or sick - and therefore high-cost and in a state of inevitable decline. But we need to rethink how we view health and sickness.
A nudge toward budgeting
May 22, 2012There is many a manager who has been told "work on the budget" and left to sink or swim. If that's different in your facility — that is, if each nurse manager is giving a course in the budgeting — I congratulate you. Otherwise, I have a helpful recommendation.

June 13, 2011So it's 4 a.m. and I'm still up finishing a project and jonesing for a cup of my favorite brand of coffee, NuJava.

Deeplinks Blog posts about Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act
Last week, after over a year of fighting in court, Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood withdrew a burdensome, 79-page investigatory subpoena issued to Google back in October 2014. Documents from the 2014 Sony hack implied the subpoena was part of a Hollywood plot against the search giant, with the Motion Picture Association of America ("MPAA") pushing the Attorney General to aggressively investigate and smear the company.
Last week, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals overturned an injunction issued by a federal district court judge last year. The injunction would have prevented Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood from enforcing his massively large and demanding administrative subpoena against Google. The injunction would also have prohibited the Attorney General from bringing civil or criminal charges against the company for making third-party content accessible to Internet users.
EFF supported the injunction as a measure necessary to nip the abusive use of a state official's investigatory subpoena power in the bud, and we're sorry to see the injunction overturned.
Twenty years ago, large chunks of the Web went dark. These sites were changing their layout, or in some cases even going offline, to protest the Communications Decency Act, signed on February 8 by President Bill Clinton as Title V of the landmark Telecommunication Act. By some estimates, more than 5% of sites online on the early Web took part.
The Communications Decency Act (CDA) was embroiled in controversy: as a direct response to the new law, EFF co-founder John Perry Barlow wrote his influential Declaration of Independence of Cyberspace; EFF kicked off the Blue Ribbon Online Free Speech campaign that became one of the most iconic images of online activism of the era.
Yesterday, in Backpage.com v. Dart a unanimous panel of the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals in a lively opinion ordered Thomas Dart, the sheriff of Cook County, Illinois, to end his "campaign of suffocation" against the website and stop violating its First Amendment rights.
The court of appeals rejected Sheriff Dart's contention that he was merely expressing his personal distaste for Backpage and not using his position as a government official to coerce Visa and MasterCard into discontinuing business with the website. Rather, the court of appeals held that Sheriff Dart's actions amounted to an unconstitutional prior restraint on Backpage's speech.
Europe is very close to the finishing line of an extraordinary project: the adoption of the new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), a single, comprehensive replacement for the 28 different laws that implement Europe's existing 1995 Data Protection Directive. More than any other instrument, the original Directive has created a high global standard for personal data protection, and led many other countries to follow Europe's approach. Over the years, Europe has grown ever more committed to the idea of data protection as a core value. In the Union's Charter of Fundamental Rights, legally binding on all the EU states since 2009, lists the "right to the protection of personal data" as a separate and equal right to privacy. The GDPR is intended to update and maintain that high standard of protection, while modernising and streamlining its enforcement.

Medical Definition of Episiotomy
Episiotomy: A surgical procedure for widening the outlet of the birth canal to facilitate delivery of the baby and to avoid a jagged rip of the area between the anus and the vulva (perineum). During an episiotomy, an incision is made between the vagina and the rectum. The usual cut goes straight down and does not involve the muscles around the rectum or the rectum itself. An episiotomy can decrease the amount of maternal pushing, and it may also decrease trauma to the vaginal tissues and expedite delivery of the baby when quick delivery is necessary. However, episiotomies are associated with increased incidence of extensions or tears into the muscle of the rectum or even the rectum itself. Episiotomies and natural tearing can often be avoided with the use of perineal massage during delivery. Repair of the episiotomy is by simple stitching.

The Shortlist for Aug. 2
By Jen Odell
So much for Lindsay Lohan's inspirationally stable ex. Samantha Ronson was arrested for DUI at 10:30 a.m. Monday morning. The 33-year-old DJ was driving her black Porsche home from a gig at Lavo in Las Vegas when police stopped her for speeding. "When she was stopped, she showed signs of being impaired," police tell Us. "[The officer] gave her balance tests and she showed signs of alcohol intoxication." She reportedly refused a breathalyzer and was arrested immediately on two misdemeanor charges of driving under the influence. She was then taken into custody, where her blood alcohol was found to be over the legal limit. Ronson was released at 5:30 p.m. that day. (Us)

Roubini seems a bit overly pessimistic, but he did provide a very clear warning about the 2008 financial crisis.
He is now warning that if the Fed and other Central Banks continue to delay in raising rates we are at risk of creating the mother of all asset bubbles.
Roubini cites the big problem being that all of this excess liquidity is going into financial transactions and not the real economy.
He cites bubbles in the following areas:
- Global real estate.
- Junk bonds.
- The tech sector.
If nothing else he gives us three asset classes to avoid.

Money on my Brain Lyrics
Artist: Kool G. Rap & DJ Polo
Album: 4, 5, 6
Ninety-five, keep it live
Yeah to make papers, knahmsayin?
Motherfuckin Kool G. Rap and B1
and my motherfuckin man Grimm
Just comin with somethin to keep the brainstem
It's Big 1 son, Jamaica Queens is the turf
And I'ma exploit, heaven and earth, for what it's worth
It's the MC extrordinaire, the jewels glare
The God is rare, I'm takin bitches back to my lair
I want mines and yours, strippin niggaz to they drawers
No probable cause, with the chrome double 4's
It's the Queens New Yorker with a bulletproof parka
In eighty-four, it was Calvins and British Walkers
Now I'm sippin Harvey's Bristal Cream with the glock 17
as the sirens race to the scene
Tryin to get dough, like Pablo, today, fuck tomorrow
Seats for carro, as I recline in Monte Carlo
I got the game down to a science, it's the clients
that turn small time hustlers into giants
Three course meal, waitin for my appetizer
Blowin like a geyser, time only makes me wiser
Paraphenalia, and material, makes the crew imperial
I put the fear in you, sippin beer with two
Handlin business properly, form a monopoly
Storefront property, if not, another robbery
I'm puttin forth the effort, murder's the method
The steak is peppered
Son when I let off you meet your Lord and shepherd
Bloody money gets niggaz deaded and wetted
Don't forget it, money's the metal and my hand is magnetic
Chorus: Grimm, B1
I gotta flip these bricks
cause bein broke drive me insane
Money's on my motherfuckin brain
From O-Z's to ki's
the triple beam brings fame to my name
Money's on my motherfuckin brain
Niggaz be scheamin and teamin
but still I maintain
Money's on my motherfuckin brain
Cause money and murder go hand in hand
It ain't nothin but a game
Money's on my motherfuckin brain son
Cryin hopin God forgive me for the ones I killed
But until still, I dry my eyes with hundred dollar bills
Like McDonald's, makin mills servin
Fuck a Landcruiser now, pulls a ? to Suburban
Stressed out, sittin thinkin past bed time
Scared can't sleep, nightmares about fed time
Diamonds, linens, ostrich and all that
Fat shit I'm talkin code cause my phone's tapped
Crackheads worship me like I'm Jesus
Uncle Sam can't stand me cause I'm fuckin all his nieces
Cuties every colour, who I wanna fuck next?
Buy a new car, maybe Lamborghini trunk next
Look at the jealousy in the eyes of the roughnecks
Bulletproof glass just in case they wanna buck Tecs
A large ratio in this game dies
But I'm flippin pies, til the Senate legalize
Chorus: Grimm, G. Rap (same lines)
[Kool G. Rap]
I'm sportin flavors and Timbs, a ninety-five Bezn with the chrome rims
Presedential Rolex, two carat diamonds with the stone gems
Pockets filled with lucci leather wallets designed by Gucci
Parlay in resteraunts, eatin shrimp, scampi and sushi
Fly minks, with icicles that blink inside cuban links
Lookin ?, brothers stink, got loot like I'm doin banks
Hundred dollar bottles of chammy, condos in Miami
Front row seats up at the Grammy's, the broke niggaz can't stand me
Hold the flame low, hotel suites inside the Flamingo
Just home by the dingos, I step up in em rockin Kangols
Straight up fakin no jacks, cause all my crackshacks are jam packed
My mad stacks, show that I'm on the right track, like Amtrak
So stand back, cause I'ma make whatever it takes
to shake Jakes, and shoot snakes, and bake more snowflake cakes than Drake's
Cut up your grill like I'm the Barber of Seville
Still like Gotti bodies are found inside the harbor cause I'm ill
It's war, but no more kids are bein kidnapped, matter of fact
ain't with the shit black, I was young when I did that
There's dope in the Copa Cabanas, cock back the hammers
So niggaz in pajamas get they wigs split like bananas
Stable of hotties, niggaz with shotties catchin bodies
Neighborhood John Gotti with more notes than Pavarotti
Yeah, paid as a motherfuckin bank teller
The Goodfella, I stay a motherfuckin drug seller
Chorus: Grimm, G. Rap, B1 (G and B alternate)

Some historians try to downplay and even deny the religious motivation for the Pilgrims' voyage to the New World. However, upon reading the thoughts of these brave adventurers there is no doubt as to why they left family and friends to undertake such a dangerous and difficult journey. As they prepared to leave their ships and set foot on dry land, the Pilgrims drafted and signed the Mayflower Compact. In part, the document reads:
"In the name of God, Amen, We, whose names are underwritten, the Loyal Subjects of our dread Sovereign Lord King James, by the Grace of God, ... Having undertaken for the Glory of God, and Advancement of the Christian Faith and the Honour of our King and Country, a Voyage to plant the first Colony...."
Given the context in which the Mayflower Compact was produced, it is difficult to interpret it as anything but a religious statement of purpose -- even a Christian statement.
The first English settlers of the land that would become the United States found the first year in their new home difficult. Almost half of the original 101 colonists perished during a harsh winter. However, with the aid of Indians who had befriended them, the surviving Pilgrims managed to cultivate and reap an abundant harvest. Desiring to express their joy, they called for a celebration of thanksgiving in the fall of 1621.
Dedicated secularists have sought to revise history in order to downplay the significance religious faith played in the lives of the Pilgrims. The assertion is made by some "historians" that the initial thanksgiving was a feast honoring the Indians. It is true the Pilgrims were appreciative of the help they received from their native friends, however in their writings they indicate their praise and thanks were directed to Almighty God.
William Bradford, who served as governor of the fledging community, recorded in a journal titled "Of Plymouth Plantation" the Pilgrims thoughts about one particular Native American named Squanto. Bradford wrote:
"About the 16th of March , a certain Indian came boldly amongst them and spoke to them in broken English. ... His name was Samoset. He told them also of another Indian whose name was Squanto, a native of this place, who had been in England and could speak better English than himself. ...
"bout four or five days after, came ... the aforesaid Squanto ... continued with them and was their interpreter and was a special instrument sent of God for their good beyond their expectation. He showed them how to plant corn, where to take fish and other commodities, and guided them to unknown places, and never left them till he died."
Many historians believe the Pilgrims may not have made it without Squanto's help. It seems Bradford indicates as much. However, it is clear he believed it was the providential hand of God who brought Squanto into the lives of the Pilgrims. The initial thanksgiving was ultimately about the Lord's providence and not merely the native people of the New World.
Shortly after the first thanksgiving celebration, Edward Winslow wrote a letter titled: "A letter sent from New England for a friend in these parts, setting forth a brief and true Declaration of the worth of that Plantation, as also certain useful directions for such as intend a voyage into those parts." In the communication Winslow gave a brief chronicle of the Pilgrims' first year in the New World. Throughout the letter he made it clear that the thanksgiving gathering was for the purpose of giving thanks to God "who hath dealt so favorably with us."
By placing their thoughts and convictions on paper, the Pilgrims left a written record for their motivation in settling the land that would become the United States of America. They came to establish a place where of religion, specifically their understanding of Christianity, could freely be pursued and practiced.
I find it interesting that even many atheists and agnostics pause to observe America's Thanksgiving holiday. Though they attempt to assuage their secularist consciences by insisting it is national day for celebrating family, gratitude for friends or the extoling of nebulous positive thoughts, the historical record is clear; Thanksgiving -- a religious holiday -- is a significant part of our heritage.
As a nation, we take time the fourth Thursday of each November to remember the first colonists and thank the same God who inspired and sustained their courageous journey of faith. If gratitude to God is not on your menu this Thanksgiving, you miss the entire point of the holiday.

As the Wall Street Journal reports:In [a March survey by] Mintel, 46% agreed artificially sweetened soda is "unhealthy,'' including more than 50% of consumers younger than 35.In a recent survey by Datamonitor, 28% of U.S. respondents said they avoid low-calorie sweeteners entirely and another 23% said they try to limit intake.Although the American Beverage Association swears that artificial sweeteners are totally safe and a good weight-loss tool—a position endorsed by the American Diabetes Association and the FDA—current attitudes reflect a new understanding about the chemicals.AdvertisementFor example, artificial sweeteners have been linked to weight gain after studies showed they could lead to obesity and diabetes. They are believed to trigger insulin, which puts bodies in fat-storage mode.But the cola industry is doing what it can to retain its addicts and lure new ones in.
