The Book of Exodus
Moses' mother placed him a basket and floated him down the Nile in order to save him from the Egyptians who were killing all the male Israelite babies. The babies were being killed because Pharoah feared that the Egyptians were being outnumbered and could be defeated by the Israelites. The girls were allowed to live in hopes that they would marry Egyptian boys and the land would revert back to Egypt.
Moses was taken in by Pharoah's daughter and raised in the household.He was close to both the Egyptians and the Israelites. He killed an Egyptian for beating an Israelite slave, though and had to to flee to Midian. There he married Zipporah, the daughter of Jethro and lived as a shepherd until God called him to return to Egypt to free the Israelites.
Moses encountered the Burning Bush on Mt. Horeb (also called Mt. Sinai). God called to him and identified himself as "I Am Who Am" or (in Hebrew) YHWH (the tetragrammaton). In English we know this name as Yahweh. God identified himself as "The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, the God of Jacob".
Moses was a reluctant prophet. He was afraid to return to Egypt and was afraid that he was good enough at speaking to be a prophet (God's spokesman). God allowed Aaron, the brother of Moses to be with him and speak for him, if necessary. God knew that it would not be Moses leading the people, but God leading the people through Moses.
God asked Moses to ask Pharoah to let the Israelites go into the desert for three days to sacrifice and worship. He did not ask that the Israelites be freed from slavery.
Pharoah refused and so the plagues were visited upon the Egyptian people. Most of these ten plagues symbolized the pagan beliefs of the Egyptians in some way. Through each, God showed his power over the "gods" that the Egyptians worshipped. In this way God warned against idolatry.
None of the plagues convinced Pharoah to let the Israelites go worship until the tenth plague, the death of the firstborn of man and beast. Pharoah demanded that the Israelites leave in the middle of the night.
After Moses released the Israelites, he changed his mind and began to pursue them. Guided by God as a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night, they came to the Sea of Reeds (the Red Sea). God sent a mighty wind to dry the sea so the Israelites could cross. Pharoah and his army followed and they drowned. Moses and the Israelites continued into the Sinai Peninsula. The parting of the Red Sea is a kind of Baptism. The waters saved the Israelites from certain death.
And finally, just for a little fun...
There are many parallels between the Passover and the Paschal Mystery (Jesus' passion, death, resurrection and ascension). The Passover Lamb is a type of the Blood of Christ who, by his Blood saved us from eternal death. By celebrating the Passover every year, the People of God would be preparing themselves to understand the Death of the Lamb of God.
The parting of the Red Sea is a type of Baptism. The waters saved the Israelites from certain death.
This manna was a type of the Eucharist. In John 6:30-35 (the Bread of Life discourse) Jesus himself says that they true Bread from heaven is from God: "I am the Bread of Life; he who comes to me shall not hunger, and he who believes in me shall never thirst.
Once the Exodus (the going out) was over, the Israelites were on their own. Starving and exhausted, they began to complain that Moses had led them out of Egypt only to die in the wilderness of Sinai. God sent manna from heaven (the word manna means "What is it?") to feed them.
After wandering for three months, Moses again went up Mt. Sinai where God gave him a message for all of Israel, the Ten Commandments (also called the Decalogue - meaning the ten words).
Moses built an altar and the people sealed the covenant with a sacrifice. Moses threw half the blood against the altar and sprinkled the other half on the people, uniting them and God in the same covenant.
These were the basis of the moral code of the Hebrews. The first three Commandments concern our relationship with God. The next seven concern our relationship with our neighbor. (You shall love your God with all your heart, your mind and your strength. You shall love your neighbor as yourself.)
This made the nation of Israel a priestly nation. God would use the Israelites as models of behavior and relationship for the rest of the world.
Now the elders of Israel could ascend the mountain and speak directly to God rather than having Moses speak for them. God was keeping his covenant: they were a nation of priests speaking directly to God.
God often chose reluctant prophets, men who appear to be weak so that people will understand that it is God who is working, not his agent.
The passage of the Hebrews from slavery in Egypt to freedom
This Passover (the sacrifice of the lamb and the blood on the doorposts) saved the firstborn of the Israelites lasted for seven days.
The first three plagues were blood, frog and gnats. The next three plagues were flies, cattle and boils. The next three were hail, locusts and darkness.

Azizi Developments Announces Azizi.Iris has Sold Out
Dubai, UAE, 19th December, 2014: A leading UAE property developer, AZIZI developments announced on Wednesday that one of its prime luxury properties, AZIZI.Iris, located in Al Furjan has been sold out. The lucky occupants will be moving into the premises early 2016 – the project is set for completion by December 2015.
Making the announcements at a well attended press conference in Dubai, Mohsen Kamel, CEO of AZIZI Developments said that with the current skyrocketing rents in the UAE, residents are now opting to purchase their own apartments. AZIZI.Iris offers spacious apartments that are fully furnished and suitable for end users who are the primary target audience for our company.
He further added that the convenient locality, affordability and luxurious properties being offered by AZIZI Developments is also one of the contributing factors towards the project being sold out.
"Our accomplishments and success so far provides a preview for what UAE property owners and the community in general can expect from AZIZI Developments in the future" said Kamel.
The CEO also said that the client satisfaction for the quality and the scheduled time of delivery of the project has been well commended. He said that since the projects took off, there have been several serious buyers who have already booked their apartments much in advance. The Developer has currently another 4 projects under construction and for sale in Al Furjan; Yasamine, Ferouz, Liatris and Orchid.
"We're talking about very strong fundamentals and since the start of the year, we have seen positive response from our global clientele. Most investors are looking for the right investment and our projects provide them just that."
Last week, AZIZI Developments also showcased at the four day Cityscape Kuwait exhibition where Kamel described their presence as an overwhelming response, adding that several GCC residents showed their interest in buying properties in the UAE.
"Our presence at the Kuwait Cityscape exhibition this year was the first outside the UAE and the response from the visitors had been overwhelming and beyond our expectations," added Kamel. "This shows that the quality of our work and presenting the projects in good time is well received by the community at large."
A month ago, AZIZI Developments also established its permanent stands at the Deira City Centre in a bid to reach closer to the people by showcasing some of its prime properties. Other similar outlets have also been planned for the Mall of the Emirates (MOE), Ibn Battuta Mall and Marina Mall in Abu Dhabi early next year.
Kamel said that the newly introduced concept of the permanent kiosks are part of the company's strategic plan to establish a chain of easily accessible Information Centres to provide vital data on their latest ongoing projects.
The kiosks will comprise of an interactive display that will showcase some of AZIZI's properties including large-scale models and brochures that will be served with staff who have the real estate know-how. This he said is specially designed to get closer to potential Investors not only across the UAE but the entire region.

There's a surprisingly long history of comic book superheroes appearing in novels, either hardcover or paperback. Some of us have shelves lined with prose treatments of our favorite heroes.
Having just read "Wayne of Gotham," a recent novel by Tracy Hickman, I thought I'd make mention of a couple of notable ones.
First, "Wayne of Gotham." Hickman's story alternates between two time periods, the present day, as Batman tries to unravel a decades-old mystery, and the late 1950s, when his father, Gotham physician Thomas Wayne, dealt with a threat to his beloved city.
The 1950s storyline, of course, takes place several years before the events of the Batman comics that created the Dark Knight: Thomas and Martha Wayne are gunned down in an alley, while their young son watches, by a deadly criminal. Young Bruce Wayne devotes his life to fighting crime, as we all know, as Batman.
In Hickman's book, chapters alternate between the present and the past, recounting a mystery that confronted both generations of Waynes.
In some ways, it feels like Hickman's most daring decision is to depict an aging Batman who fights crime now with the help of high-tech devices. Sure, Batman still enjoys a good scrap. But he's middle-aged and all those midnight battles have taken a toll on his body.
The granddaddy of all superhero books is George Lowther's 1942 novel "The Adventures of Superman." The character of Superman had been around for a few years by the time this hardback book was published, but the impetus for the book was no doubt the very popular "The Adventures of Superman" radio series. Lowther was a writer on the show as well as many others.
(Fun fact about Lowther, who died in 1975: He also wrote more than 40 episodes of "CBS Radio Mystery Theater," the last of the widely heard radio dramas, in 1974 and 1975.)
Lowther's Superman novel, which was reprinted in 1995, was the first novelization of a comic book superhero, of course, but also contributed to the mythology of the character, naming Superman's parents on Krypton Jor-El and Lara, varying from the earlier Jor-L and Lora from the comics.
(Another fun fact: The radio series introduced several of the core Superman mythos concepts, including Kryptonite, that elemental remnant of Superman's home planet that can be dangerous to him. Although the radio show is largely unheard these days – I have an audio cassette boxed set from 20 years ago – it contributed a lot to the character.)
Probably my favorite modern-day superhero novelization is "Enemies & Allies," a 2009 novel by Kevin J. Anderson.
Set at the height of the Cold War in the 1950s, the novel recounts the early, uneasy meeting between Superman and Batman as they team up to battle Lex Luthor, who is stoking 1950s-era fears of nuclear war and alien invasion.
Anderson's book is terrific. It's a good treatment of vintage superheroics and is quite faithful to the feeling of mutual suspicion replaced by growing trust between Superman and Batman. I wish he'd come back to the characters.

Jason Ray
Balto's debut EP was recorded in several Madison basements.
Sporting a scruffy beard and a knit hat, Simon Balto seems at home in the Midwestern winter.
The blistering cold, open fields and tight-knit towns that characterize much of the region have left a mark on the Viroqua native, whose vivid folk lyricism and distinctive vocals will fill the High Noon Saloon on Feb. 11.
As a child Balto started his musical exploration on the piano. He switched to guitar late in high school but didn't start writing his own music until a breakup pushed him to put pen to paper. The result was his debut EP, Lanes, which he released in 2012 as a five-song series of field recordings performed in basements across Madison. Over the course of the next year, Balto refined his sound and jumped into recording a full-length album, The Roads That Make Men Weary, which he dropped in November 2013.
"A friend and I went to a family friend's cabin in southwest Wisconsin with our recording equipment and a bunch of wine, beer and food, and holed up there for four or five days," says Balto. "My next record will be very different, but that album turned out exactly how I wanted it. As you grow, things change, and you do things in different ways."
His music features austerely beautiful guitar work and vocals, but it is grounded in narrative. "I'm very much a lyrically driven writer," says Balto. "I find stories where they come to me, even from overheard bar conversations."
Some of Balto's songs tell unfamiliar stories: "Jacksonville," for example, is about a man helping his unrequited love bury her murder victim. But they explore themes that are common to the human experience, like the desire for love or escape. Tracks like "The Tower and the Bloom" center on a recurring theme of loss, which Balto says is "partly driven by having lost my mom when I was young."
Since the release of The Roads That Make Men Weary, Balto has steadily gained traction in the Midwestern folk scene, playing alongside local mainstays like Field Report and Count This Penny as well as recording a session with indie music service Daytrotter.
Balto's artistic talent is at the core of his continued success, but he is quick to praise the Madison music community as a support system. "The folk scene here has been so embracing," says Balto. "I have been able to play at amazing venues and towns with great people both on stage and in the audience. I'm not blind to the fact that a lot of those things don't happen without that really special community around you."
Now, Balto is knee-deep in finishing his Ph.D. in history at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and preparing to record his next album in April at Sacred Heart studio in Duluth. In the fall, he is headed to Ball State University in Indiana to become a professor, but says he intends to remain a familiar face in the area. "I plan to stay very connected," Balto says. "It would have broken my heart to have to pick up and move from this community."

Store-bought glaze vs Natural Honey
If you are a ham lover, it is very likely that you have had a honey cured ham. Have you ever looked at the ingredients in a ham glaze pack for a honey cured ham? You would be shocked at the ingredient list. The ingredients include: sugar, high fructose corn syrup, water, honey modified food starch, soybean oil, sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate (preservatives), cellulose gum, caramel color, spice, natural and artificial flavor, calcium disodium EDTA. Compare this with Mrs. Bryant's approach to glazing a ham. Simply open a jar of Mrs. Bryant's Cherry Apple Sauce (no sugar added - just cherries and apples) or if you want that "honey" taste - just use the monk's Monastery Creamed Honey (pure raw Virginia honey) or combine the two. You pick- you will be surprised as how much better the healthier choice tastes.Other natural alternatives include: Wildwood's Hickory Syrup and Virginia Chutney Company's Chutneys. Simply coat your ham and bake, grill, or broil. Order your ham and glazes on-line today!

Religious lives are lived out in specific localities, from busy urban neighbourhoods to rural and coastal communities. The Religious Studies discipline at the OU is particularly interested in historical or ethnographic research oriented towards experiences of locality and the development of spatial approaches to religion. Current research in this area includes extensive ethnographic study in Glastonbury, work on urban/religious affect in relation to social movements, and historical and ethnographic research in shifts in the sites of religion in the city.
The discipline also has considerable expertise in the performance of religions and spiritualities and their manifestation in material and visual cultures. This dovetails with our interest in lived and vernacular forms of religion and spirituality and their expression across multiple scales and contexts. In contrast to studies that privilege religious texts, ideas and beliefs, we focus on what people do, how they do it, and on the sensuality of the materials they use. Research concerned with material, visual and performance cultures promises to make important contributions to understanding religions in historical and contemporary contexts. Current research in this area includes projects exploring powerful and potentially transcendent and transgressive experiences generated through noise and pain.
We welcome applications in areas that correspond with current staff research interests. We look for detailed and well thought-out proposals, which set out specific research questions and outline the originality of your topic or approach. We encourage you to discuss your ideas informally before submitting an application; to do so please contact the department.

After being shot in the back and dying - again - Harper's recovery has been hard. She's lost many of the powers she'd acquired since first becoming a Greywalker and knows that if she dies one more time, she won't be coming back. Her only respite from the chaos is her work ...until she sees a ghostly car accident for which there are no records. Worse still, the victim of the fatal wreck insists he was murdered, and that the nearby community of Sunset Lakes - called 'Blood Lake' by locals - is to blame. The picturesque area is an unlikely a haven for conspiracy but Harper soon learns that the icy waters of the lake hide a terrible power and a host of hellish beings. And both are held under the thrall of a sinister cabal that will use the darkest of arts to achieve their fiendish ends ...

Pathfinder is a visual language to initiate inspiration for choreography. The tool generates and projects abstract shapes into space in order to stimulate the dancers' exploration of new body movements and overcome the boundaries of trained habits. It is a digital approach to the conceptual research of dance.
Pathfinder inspires dancers to explore physical language to forge unique expressions and configurations. It is a generative tool that conceives visual inspirations for the conceptual research of body movements. The system produces logical transitions between geometric shapes to guide and inspire the user to compliment continuously transforming human states. Choreographers can adjust certain parameters of the algorithmsuch as speed, complexity, or the geometry of objectsin order to delineate a desired type of animation without the ability to define the exact output. The algorithm generates graphic patterns to stimulate the creativity of dancers and open new perspectives. By interpreting the vast number of morphing geometries, the artist feels guided and inspired to open new perspectives towards physical possibilities.
Choreographic development often implicates the spontaneous embodiment of visual imagination. William Forsythe's Improvisation Technologies for example, teach the creation of new motion patterns by imagining and manipulating geometric objects in space. Inspired by this concept, the smooth transition of Pathfinder's visual language between configurations creates a seamless path for the dancer to follow from point, to line, to plane.
As a response to limitations in dance, Pathfinder aims to be instrumental in the creative process of choreographic development. Projected into space, Pathfinder becomes a digital environment to stimulate the artists' creativity and enrich choreographic productions. The visual language of Pathfinder consists of fundamental geometric shapes and transitions to illustrate an abstraction of body states, motion, and causalities. The algorithm creates a vast number of geometries morphing in a sequential and logical manner.
Pathfinder expands the idea of creative collaboration by integrating an intelligent digital entity into the artistic process. The tool fosters an innovative dialogue between humans and technology to explore boundaries and creative possibilities. As a new development in dance and choreography, Pathfinder aims to explore a sustainable culture to encourage the creative abilities of new generations of digital artists, dancers, and choreographers.

WALTER HOUSE and DEBRA HOUSE, Plaintiffs,
KENT WORLDWIDE MACHINE WORKS, INC., KENT WORLDWIDE MACHINE WORKS, WORLDWIDE PROCESSING OF OHIO, INC., WORLDWIDE PROCESS TECHNOLOGIES, WORLDWIDE CONVERTING CO., WORLDWIDE CONVERTING MACHINERY, WORLDWIDE CONVERTING MACHINERY, INC., LEONARD KRIMSKY and ELIZABETH McGIBBON, Defendants. LEONARD KRIMSKY, Third-Party Plaintiff, v. TESA TAPE, INC., Third-Party Defendant.
The opinion of the court was delivered by: KEVIN FOX, Magistrate Judge
REPORT and RECOMMENDATION
The instant action was brought under the court's diversity
jurisdiction. The plaintiffs Walter House and Debra House allege,
inter alia, that the defendants designed, manufactured and distributed to third-party defendant Tesa Tape, Inc. ("TTI"), a
defective machine, referred to as a "50 machine,"*fn1 whose
function was to manufacture adhesive/pressure-sensitive tape. As
a result of the defendants' conduct, it is alleged that plaintiff
Walter House, while operating the 50 machine during the course of
his employment by TTI, suffered serious, severe and grave
permanent bodily injuries. As a consequence of that occurrence,
plaintiff Debra House contends, among other things, that she
suffered the loss of her husband's services and companionship.
The plaintiffs seek to recover damages from the defendants
through this action.*fn2
Before the Court is an application by TTI made pursuant to
Fed.R.Civ.P. 14(a), 16(e) and/or 12(b)(6) that the third-party
complaint made against it in this action be stricken or dismissed
because it is untimely and lacks merit and, further, that the
complaint filed by plaintiffs Walter House and Debra House be
dismissed because there is no basis upon which to find defendant
and third-party plaintiff Krimsky, the only defendant
participating in the litigation, personally liable to the
plaintiffs for the damages they seek to recover in this action.
The plaintiffs oppose TTI's motion, and Krimsky contends that
he is constrained by an earlier ruling of the Court to oppose
only so much of the motion as pertains to dismissal of the
third-party complaint. TTI's motion is addressed below.
After the plaintiffs and Krimsky had completed their pretrial
discovery activities and had prepared a final pretrial order so that they might proceed to
trial before your Honor, Krimsky sought and your Honor granted
him an opportunity to initiate a third-party action against TTI.
Krimsky had previously made a similar application to the
undersigned magistrate judge. That application was denied because
Krimsky had "failed to learn that a basis might exist upon which
to commence a third-party action against [TTI] because he elected
not to review pertinent material during the pretrial discovery
phase of the litigation that was available for inspection at his
adversary's office." The Court determined that, given the age of
the case which had been commenced approximately two years prior
to Krimsky's application and the posture of the case: the
existence of a final pretrial order and the readiness of the
parties to meet with your Honor so that a date for trial might be
fixed, granting Krimsky's application would have been
"inappropriate and would [have prejudiced] the plaintiffs as they
[sought] to obtain a final resolution to this matter." Krimsky
served and filed the third-party complaint, as permitted by your
Honor; thereafter, the instant motion was made by TTI.
In support of its motion, TTI maintains that the evidence
educed by the plaintiffs, through their pretrial deposition of
Krimsky, establishes that Krimsky was an officer and principal of
the corporate defendants and that he did not personally design,
manufacture, assemble, install or repair the 50 machine on which
plaintiff Walter House alleges he was injured. Therefore,
according to TTI, Krimsky cannot be held personally liable, under
New York law, for any damages that the plaintiffs might recover
in this action. Consequently, TTI contends that Fed.R.Civ.P.
12(b)(6) requires that the plaintiffs' complaint be dismissed.
The plaintiffs claim that TTI is wrong. They contend that
Krimsky's prior conviction for embezzling pension funds from an
employee benefit plan, for which he served as the sole trustee, demonstrates that Krimsky so dominated the corporate defendants
that it would be appropriate, in the circumstance of the instant
case, to find that he was the corporations' alter ego and,
accordingly, may be held liable for damages suffered by the
For his part, Krimsky alleges that TTI breached a contract it
had with him by, inter alia, failing to: (a) repair and
maintain the subject 50 machine in a safe manner; or (b) train
its employees to operate the 50 machine properly. Therefore,
Krimsky contends that TTI must hold him harmless against and
indemnify him for any damages recovered by the plaintiffs in this
TTI denies that it entered into a contract with Krimsky or that
it is obligated to indemnify him. No copy of the contract Krimsky
alleges he had with TTI has been provided to the Court and no
mention of that document was made in the final pretrial order
previously submitted to the court.
TTI also contends that the factors noted above, that prompted
the undersigned magistrate judge to deny Krimsky's original
request to commence a third-party action, when considered with
the following facts: (i) that the 50 machine is no longer
available; (ii) that the TTI employees who are most knowledgeable
about the 50 machine are no longer in TTI's employ; and (iii)
that TTI's presence in the action will delay the trial, warrant
the court in striking the third-party complaint, notwithstanding
the fact that your Honor authorized its filing. Moreover,
according to TTI, Krimsky's failure to demonstrate, as required
by Fed.R.Civ.P. 16(e), that manifest injustice will attend if
the court declines to permit the final pretrial order to be
modified to account for impleaded claims, militates against
allowing that document to be changed. III. DISCUSSION
Fed.R.Civ.P. 14(a)
At any time after commencement of the action, a
defending party, as a third-party plaintiff, may
cause a summons and complaint to be served upon a
person not a party to this action who is or may be
liable to the third-party plaintiff for all or part
of the plaintiff's claim against the third-party

May 15, 2013 celebrates the 70th birthday of the Hawk that has become the popular mascot and logo for the Hawthorn Football Club.
In Round 2, 1943 when Hawthorn played Essendon, the match report in the Sporting Globe announced that prior to the start of the game at Glenferrie, Roy Cazaly, Hawthorn's coach told the players that in future they would be known as the Hawks instead of the Mayblooms. He expected players to live up to the name being ready to fight hard and carry the ball away with pace and dash to the goal.
Unfortunately the newly named Hawks went down by 31 points. Two weeks later the Sporting Globe headline read, "Hawks continue winning form". This was the first time that Hawthorn's new nickname was recorded in the press. For the record the Hawks had previously defeated Melbourne by 45 points in Round 3 followed by a 9 point win over Fitzroy in Round 4.
The Hawk logo first appeared on both the club letterheads and the cover of the Annual Report in 1943 but it took another 5 years before the Hawk appeared on the Club's Membership Tickets in 1948. This was due to economical limitations within the Club. The stock of previously printed membership tickets with the old logo had to be use first before the new logo could be adopted.
The first record of a real life Hawk used as mascot comes from The Herald Newspaper from April 17, 1946. Featured in the sporting pages, shows a photo of the star forward, Wally Culpitt presenting a mounted Hawk with a wingspan of 3ft (90cms) to Club Secretary, Vic Hocking. The photo caption added, "that the Hawk will be carried to all games to be played by the Hawks". One can only wonder how long this newly forged tradition may have lasted. This Hawk mascot unfortunately is no longer in the possession of the Club.
Circa 1950, club identity, Max Manderson while on a hunting trip in the Grampions in central Victoria shot a number of large Wedge Tailed Eagles that he had preserved by a taxidermist. He in turn donated them to Hawthorn. Although both stuffed birds were actually Wedge Tailed Eagles the Club mistakenly looked upon them as Hawks. One of these Hawks can be seen in the background in a recently rediscovered photo of the Club Committee in the President's Room at Glenferrie in 1950.
The second Hawk stands on a football with wings outstretched. This one was the inspiration behind the logo of the Hawk carrying a football with its claws that was the popular club emblem from the late 1950s through to the early 1980s and then again from 1997 to 2007.
There are numerous examples of he Hawks featured in photos with either new recruits or when the Club was making some special announcement in the newspapers and club publications. The two club mascots were on constant display one in the Board Room and the other in the Social Club till the early 1990s when they were placed in storage. They are now proudly on display in the Trainers Exhibit within the Hawks Museum.
The Hawk logo was incorporated on the Club blazer pocket and has been used on the tracksuit jackets from the early 1970s appearing for the first time on the match day guernsey, being night guernsey worn in 1997.
The Hawk has appeared on all sorts of memorabilia including badges, pennants, posters, toys and clothing. The earliest recorded Hawk Club badge can be seen worn by Club Treasurer Bob Fergie in the 1949 Annual Report. The Hawks Museum adopted this design for the 2002 Hawks Forever badge.
To mark the 70th anniversary of the Hawk, the Hawks Museum will be presenting a display during 2013 of the evolution of the Hawk.
We are seeking help with this project and are asking Hawk supporters if they have any unusual Hawk items be it drawings, illustrations, badges, pennants, Hawk designs knitted of scarves, beanies or jumpers and particularly home made Hawk toys or Hawks masks.
Does anyone recall the lady supporter who sold Hawk broaches at Glenferrie that she made from matchsticks we would love to find one of these now precious items?
If you can help or have any clues, please contact the museum on 03 95353075.

Baldies' Blog began originally in the UK by a 26 year old journalist with a blood cancer on a mission to inform the world about bone marrow donation.
He has since died, and I took on the cause of making cancer care more transparent for everybody.
Cancer is a disease that will touch everybody through diagnosis or affiliation: 1 in 2 men will be diagnosed and 1 in 3 woman will hear those words, "You Have Cancer."
I invite you to read how I feel along my journey and
how I am continuing to live a full life alongside my Hodgkin's lymphoma, with me controlling my cancer, not my cancer controlling me.
I hope that "Baldies' Blog" will prepare you to handle whatever life sends you, but especially if it's the message, "You Have Cancer."

Our nephew is with us to play with x, but it's turning out that j, x, and C just end up ditching my weak tired self. I'm ready to go home and recuperate, but I'll settle for a shower...

In an eLearning environment, having 'Multiple Perspectives' is an absolute necessity. When you are in the traditional classroom and a discussion is taking place, opinions are heard from many different people which may include many different cultures and attitudes. When inside the virtual classroom, or learning through eLearning, that same experience should not be taken away. Students should be able to have the opportunity to see and view things from the eyes of others; even if that is being part of a forum discussion. This does not just apply to people's perspective, but is also applicable to the perspective of the task at hand. The students must be able to 'tackle' a problem from multiple angles and gain insight and knowledge from multiple areas. A simple 'Google Search' is not always enough and should never be the only path to information. When search engines are used however, the student should be able to separate information from the relevant material to the irrelevant material.
The answers to certain questions may be found through a search engine but that should not always be the case. Asking questions, reading papers, and consulting others with experience are other great ways to learn. Group work that involves a lot of communication is great way to have this. One way to implement this is to group together people from various backgrounds. When working on a project, they can consult each other to learn different things and gain experience that way. It also enhances the communication channels and allows from different opinions to be heard and taken accounted for. Discussions can take place online and answers can be found locally and more importantly, a culture can be created in the long term.

Introducing the Extrordinary Bellcycle from Alex Bell
- Details
- Parent Category: Big Blue Saw Blog
- Created: Monday, 24 July 2017 19:05
- Written by Simon Arthur
From Harlem, NYC comes my latest project, the Bellcycle. Growing up in NYC I always wanted to build things like my own bicycle from scratch, but living in an apartment makes that tricky. So last year I started experimenting with making a cycle that someone could assemble in their living room. While I was at it I thought, what the hell lets make it weird. So I made it front wheel pedaled and added some springs and pivots to make the riding experience fun.For version 1 of the bellcycle I used a hacksaw to cut out some aluminum bar and a drill for the holes. But of course this was exhausting, inaccurate and unscalable. After I found out about Big Blue Saw I was hooked. Within a few days of finished a design I would get a package in the mail with all the parts ready to go.
I have found the waterjet parts to be of surprisingly good accuracy and a great basic finish. I suggest that more makers/engineers/designers take a look at building with waterjet cut parts and inexpensive round metal tubing. If you drill and tap a pinch bolt into the side of the part you can create rigid and strong products with just Big Blue Saw waterjet parts, tubing and some bolts. I can imagine the same process would be great for custom furniture, vehicles, etc. I will be releasing design files and guides to building with the waterjet parts on the blog at Bellcycles.com soon, so head over and subscribe.

This eBay find of the week comes off the heels of a recent De Tomasoannouncement written about here by David Allen. It looks as though the company is going to start producing cars again, which makes this weeks eBay find a true black gem.
One persons treasure is an auction-able object soon to fulfill another personsdream. That is the case for this finely restored Pantera that by this time has reached its closing without finding a bid above its reserve. After investing more than $50,000 and countless hours into bringing this one-time fastest production car in the world back to life who can blame him for protecting that investment. But it would seem certain a reasonable offer post-bidding would be considered.
Can you not just see yourself strapped inside that black cockpit feeling the rumble of that Ford 351 Cleveland engine nestled snuggly behind you?
Finding a Pantera in such prestine shape is rare and serves as evidence of what a magnificent addition this car would be to any collection. If there was room in my stable and an extra stash of cash to spare the bidding would have been over by now. Instead it will just have reside in my very crowded mental auto museum.
Be sure to head over to eBay and give this De Tomaso Pantera some appropriate loving.

A/ First economic power
First, I will talk about the economy of the United States, which is the world's largest national economy.
As we can see, the GrossDomestic Product of the US was estimated to be $14.62 trillion in 2010 , which represents six times the GDP of France and a quarter of nominal global GDP. Moreover, the US has a GDP per capita among thehighest of the world.
But the economic power of the country can also be explained by its trades. In the graph, we can see that the US realizes 11% of the world trade : Several treaties offree exchange and economic cooperation (NAFTA North American Free Trade Agreement, APEC Asia Pacific Economic cooperation) favor their trades with the rest of the world. And today, It is the largestimporter of goods and third largest exporter.
B/ Financial success
In addition to its economic success, I will talk about the financial success of the US.
The US dollar
First, theU.S. dollar is the currency most used in international transactions and several countries also use it as their official currency.
Since the conference of Bretton Woods in 1944, the dollar replaced thegold and is the reference currency : it constitutes about 65 % of the monetary reserves of the central banks, compared to around 25% for the next most popular currency, the Euro.
POWERPOINTThe American stock exchanges
The country is also the world's largest and most influential financial markets and NYC is the financial capital of the world, thanks to :
The New York StockExchange which is the world's largest one : it is more than three times larger than any other stock exchange in the world
Finally, outside NYC, the Chicago Stock Exchange is the largest in theUS
Foreign investments
To finish, the financial success is also due to the US foreign investments.
Since the 1960s, the United States economy absorbed savings from the rest of...

What Causes a San Diego Circuit Breaker to Trip?
Going outside, to the garage, or down into the basement to mess with your tripped circuit breaker can start to become frustrating when it keeps happening again and again. So why does it keep happening? A San Diego circuit breaker "trips"–or shuts off the electrical flow—to keep the circuit from overheating and causing significant damage. If this didn't happen, we'd see a huge spike in the number of house fires all across the country.
So before you back out to flip the switch on your breaker one more time, you may want to consider what the root cause of the problem is. There are three typical causes of a San Diego circuit breaker trip:
- Ground Fault Surges
- Overloaded Circuits
- Short Circuits
Here's a quick look at what those things mean to you and your home, and you can help prevent them but doing more damage.
Circuit Overload
An overloaded circuit is the most common reason a circuit breaker will trip. You're simply asking a particular circuit to give you more electricity than it has the capacity for, which causes it to begin to overheat. For example, if you're running a television and computer through the same circuit, using 20 amps worth of electricity in an outlet that can handle 15 amps, the circuit breaker will trip to prevent the circuit from overheating and possibly causing a fire.
There are a couple of easy solutions to this problem. First, you can redistribute your devices and keep them from all being on the same circuit. Or, you could turn off some of the devices to reduce the electrical load.
Short Circuit
The next possible and much more dangerous cause of a circuit breaker tripping is a short circuit. A short circuit occurs when a "hot" wire comes into contact with a "neutral wire" in one of your outlets. When this happens, a large amount of the current flows, which creates more heat than the circuit can handle. Again, the circuit shuts off to prevent any dangerous outcomes.
You'll know if you've had a short circuit because your outlets will have a smell of burning around them, or you notice a brown or black discoloration. These wires could cross for any number of reasons, and it may be as simple as loose connections or faulty wiring.
Ground Fault Surges
This is very similar to a short circuit. A ground fault happens a hot wire touches a ground wire, which is made of bare copper, or the side of a metal outlet box which is connected to the ground wire. As was the case with short circuits, you should be able to see a discoloration around your outlet if this has occurred.
If you need any assistance with determining what's causing your San Diego circuit breakers to trip, call our professionals and we'll be glad to help. It's a matter of safety, and letting the problem go untreated is creating a dangerous environment for you and your family.

I know I am to be covering for my big brother but ya know sometimes life gets in the way of work, Besides he was to be home already but there were plane problems and he hasnt' come home yet. So technically, I am supposed to be on vacation but I will cover for him for a couple more days if needed.
The Shoppe was hopping tonight. It was Happy Hour Tuesday. I thought it was going to be a quiet night but all of a sudden the place was jumping. There were so many people that they had to divide into 2 groups but no one seemed to mind. There were some great new ladies. And all of my friends were there. Everyone had great projects and they were eager to show them off to each other.
Percy is back home. He thinks since he went to Kansas to college for a couple weeks he knows every thing. But he is still a PINK alpaca even if he is an honorary member of a Fraternity. Maybe I should point this out to him.
I hear there is to be a new shipment of books due soon!!!! Can't wait to see it. Wonder what will be there.
Time to turn on Madonna and spin the night a way.

Solar capacity reaches new heights in Japan thanks to government initiatives Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry has released a new report concerning the country's installed solar energy capacity.

Plotting the Perfect Itinerary
In life, there are pantsers and there are plotters. Pantsers like to live by the seat of their pants (hence the term 'pantsers'), winging it as they go with the flow and see where the universe takes them. Plotters, on the other hand, plot out their tasks, their grocery lists, their errands and practically everything else in life, making sure they don't skip a thing.
To plan the perfect travel itinerary, it helps to be a serious plotter (like most travel agents are). But to truly enjoy that well-plotted itinerary, you need to have a little pantser in you (like most travel agents do!). Here are three key tips to plotting the perfect, seamless itinerary:
Give Yourself Time
An overly-ambitious planner would schedule an event for every second of every day, creating an itinerary that maximizes time but leaves no room for error or even improvisational exploration. So prioritize your sightseeing, choose only those at the top of your list and give yourself plenty of time to get there and enjoy these fantastic sights. Also realize that there are many factors you cannot plan for—such as traffic, missed connections or local events that shut down streets—so the more room you leave in your daily schedule, the less stress you'll experience completing it.
Include the Minor Details
Most people think their itinerary consists only of flights and hotels. Not so. It should also include travel time to the airport and from the airport's parking lots to the terminal. And let's not forget travel from the destination airport to your hotel, time to eat during your trip, and time to leisurely catch a connecting flight if your first one is delayed. Only by thinking of all of these various factors will you be able to create a seamless itinerary.
Add an Extra Day of Nothing
Regardless of how well-planned your vacation is, everything changes once you arrive at your destination. You may become ill or need time to shop if your luggage is delayed. Maybe you learned on the flight over about an incredible new restaurant you want to try but didn't schedule. Or perhaps a storm douses your plans for an all-day outdoor activity. The best thing to do is add an extra day of nothing at the end of your schedule, which will give you a cushion to do the things you might have missed.

Dreams Puerto Vallarta December 2012
Just returned from my first visit to the Pacific side of Mexico, along the beautiful coast of Puerto Vallarta. This resort, to my surprise has become a new favorite of mine! I traveled with my husband and another agent and his wife from 3D Cruise and Travel.
A short 20 minute cab ride from the airport, all local cabs are safe and can whisk you away to the resort for @$22 USD. The ride to the resort actually takes you through the streets of downtown Puerto Vallarta. It's hustle and bustle by day, with many locals, cruise ship passengers and tourists alike. The locals pride themselves with "living with the tourists" as one of our cab drivers told us. The cobblestone streets were interesting to say the least, but lots to see and do with shops, restaurants and markets at every turn. Be ready to sit in some traffic, but still not a difficult commute.
This resort sits about five minutes on the outside of town. Even with it's close proximity, it feels secluded and quite it's own little paradise. We were dropped off out front and handed our champagne and cold towel- only to be recognized by the e-concierge, Bethy who had spoken with me on Facebook. She made sure we were comfortable, and escorted us through to the Preferred Club lounge for check-in. The agent was wonderful, and even upgraded us to the Penthouse Dream Suite!
The Preferred Club at this hotel is located it's own separate high-rise with only PC members accommodations. The lounge itself is none other then a small snack bar and a few bottles of liquor. It doesn't offer it's own bar or waiters. A staff member is own duty here, if you wish for a certain beverage they will make their way to the outside bar. The real perk to this Preferred Club is the rooms. They are currently updating the older tower, all with spectacular views, but the PC accommodations are terrific.
Our room, along with our friends room which was a Preferred Club Junior Suite were all very well appointed. The bed was amazing, and faced the patio with ocean views. Balconies are large, including a table and chairs, plunge pools in the Dream Suites. All rooms equipped with comfortable couches and chairs, flat screen TV's, soaking tubs and large rain head showers. I think the biggest treat was the sound of the surf even with the patio doors closed in the evening.
After taking a charter to Los Arcos, and seeing a nice tour of the bay, we realized that this resort offers the best beach in the area. While the winter months do offer strong surf at times, the beach size, views and lack of peddlers make it top notch. If you are a beach person, this is the place!
Pools are small, although the larger of the two with the swim-up bar is heated. Bartenders aren't to adventurous with drinks, but do serve the usual. The Adult pool was a bit disappointing in size, included built-in loungers, but empty during out stay due to the freezing water temps.
The dining experience here was what set this place apart in my opinion. With the exception of a lack luster Italian experience, the food here was some of the best I've experienced at an all-inclusive. To take that up another notch, most of the restaurants were open-air and had spectacular views of the beach and mountains. The main buffet, the World Cafe didn't look impressive, but did offer nice choices and were always hot. This also included theme nights, my favorite being the Asian cuisine offered during the Monday Night football party on the beach.
Nightlife is dull, the Rendezvous bar located off the lobby is the hot spot for an after dinner drink. They do have an older restaurant turned into a disco at night, but was empty and lacked a DJ. One thing to note, this resort doesn't offer top shelf alcohol. Most the of speciality drinks, martinis, etc were disappointing.
Overall, we all very much enjoyed our visit here and found ourselves wishing we hadn't split the week with another property. The summer months I see this not an ideal local for couples, but in the late fall and early winter months, a perfect quiet getaway. You will have to go into town for nightlife, but certain evenings with their theme parties gives it just enough to not be boring.
Hoping to return soon!

Top 10 Reasons You Need A Girlfriend Getaway
I'm sure you have a million reasons why you can't possibly get away for a day or two with the girls--
you have that covered. What we will go over in this article is why a girlfriend getaway is not a luxury but
a necessity in today's soceity where women are expected to multi-task from dusk to dawn (not to
mention all the stuff we have figured out how to do while we are sleeping).
you have that covered. What we will go over in this article is why a girlfriend getaway is not a luxury but
a necessity in today's soceity where women are expected to multi-task from dusk to dawn (not to
mention all the stuff we have figured out how to do while we are sleeping).
Top 10 Reasons You Need A Girlfriend Getaway
1.You have something to celebrate! Be it a special birthday (29, AGAIN!) a great new job, or you have recently unloaded a heavy weight (boyfriend or those 10 extra lbs. you've been carrying around) what better way to celebrate than with the women who probably helped you get to where you are today.
2.It's time to branch out and try something different. You've had countless days of the same routine; wake up, feed the kids, get ready for work, commute, work, come home, make dinner...you get the picture. Time to change your routine even if it is only for 2 or 3 days. Trust me you will feel recharged and re-energized maybe upon return you will appreciate your routine or maybe you'll tweak it a little.
3.Travel with no extra baggage meaning boyfriend/husband and kids. Yes they are the center of your universe but taking time to charge your battery will make you a stronger person and that helps everyone
4.You are way to serious, responsible and you frown too much. It is so fun to let your hair down and it also gives your frown lines a rest!
5.It will give you the push you need to take yourself out of the comfort zone. You would think about rock climbing or zip lining on a work day in lovely suburbia but put you and a couple of friend on a resort weekend in Sedona and you'd be game for anything. Especially if you are promised an hour long massage when it is over.
6.Release yourself from the guilt. It's hard to feel guilty for doing something for yourself and being self-indulgent if you are not actually looking at the people you feel you are neglecting. Try not to phone home either! You deserve this and there is no need to make excuses!
7.Being a woman in today's society is a marathon not a sprint--most women will spend 17 years caring for children and 18 years helping an elderly parent. Is 1 weekend a year going to hurt? No, in fact it will help you build reserves for the rest of the race.
8.You could potentially be saving over $1,000. The cost of 1 therapy session twice a month for 1 year could be as much as $1,700. Plan a Girlfriend Getaway on a budget as small as $200 can be just as therapeutic and just way more fun.
9.You need the sleep. According to a 2004 Harris Poll conducted for Tylenol PM, almost 70% of the women polled said they get 6 hours of sleep or less per night during the work week. A couple days away from the rat race with the girls would provide a great opportunity to catch up on those zzzzzz's.
10.You don't have time for all the self-help and how-to books that are piling up on your nightstand. Instead of spending all those hours pouring over books, go away with the girls for great conversations. It could fill a book all the advice, tips and life lessons your girlfriends have to offer. Whether you need advice on losing weight, dealing with a colicky baby, a moody teenager or a difficult boss chances are your friends have been through it and can tell you what worked for them and what did not.
We have just laid out 10 fantastic reasons to take a Girlfriend Getaway. Here is our guarantee--do it once and you will be planning your next one before the trip is even over.

"This was one of the places at which it will begin. In one sense, the conception, planning and construction, which all preceded materialization's conclusion, could constitute argument that it will begin long before. In another sense, the conclusion of materialization, the things becoming concrete and static, constituted both a beginning and an end. The people who inhabited this place during the future remained insensitive to the immanent change. The change, in fact, will already be in process. Yet the lacking appreciation of it denied it's materialization. Only in history will they see a clear reflection of the process. And regardless of those who will predict a sudden end to the present, the records show clearly that it is going to arrive gradually." -Kihlberg & Henry
