What happens when you receive an inheritance during the bankruptcy proceeding? The answer to the question depends on timing and the type of bankruptcy filed.
If you inherit within 180 days of when you file or within 180 days after you file, you must report the inheritance proceeds to the bankruptcy court trustee who is handling your case. It does not matter whether you will receive anything from the inheritance for months or even years, you must report the possibility to the trustee. The date of death may determine how the trustee will handle the proceeds.
In Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, the inheritance assets will got to the bankruptcy estate, and the bankruptcy court will decide how the assets are to be liquidated. After liquidation, the proceeds will be dispersed to you and your creditors according to the priority order established by bankruptcy law.
In Chapter 13 Bankruptcy, a monetary value will be placed on the inheritance to determine how much you will pay in your reorganization plan. In either case, the addition of the inheritance will be considered when evaluating possible payment to creditors.
If the inheritance is received after the 180 days from when you filed, depending on which type of bankruptcy you filed, the affect will be handled differently. If you have filed Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, once the 180 days is past, you can keep the full amount of the inheritance proceeds and not have to share them with your creditors. The trustee can have no claim to it.
If you have filed Chapter 13 Bankruptcy, the inheritance assets might still be considered property of the bankruptcy estate and change the amount you have to pay to the reorganization plan. The trustee might contend that good faith requires devoting any excess assets obtained to the plan. Depending on which plan is chosen by the court, a three year or five year plan, you will have to report the inheritance until the bankruptcy plan has been discharged.
Why were bankruptcy laws written to include the 180 day provision for the handling of inheritances? To discourage those who anticipate an inheritance from filing bankruptcy when they think death is imminent. Death is not easily predicted outside of six months.
There are suggested solutions for the problem of an inheritance happening during a bankruptcy. Some accountants and lawyers suggest using a "spendthrift" trust to protect heirlooms and the family's wealth from creditors. Before attempting to protect family wealth, make sure you fully understand the consequences of such actions. If you create a "self-settled trust," a type of spendthrift trust that allows you to be beneficiary as well as creator, this might be viewed as trying to defraud the creditors. Bankruptcy fraud is a serious crime. State laws also influence which trust you can use to protect your inheritance after filing bankruptcy. One poplular spendthrift trust is the Domestic Asset Protection Trust (DAPT).
The 2005 changes to the Bankruptcy Code created a 10-year limitation period for transfers to self-settled trusts which are meant to hinder, delay or defraud creditors. This means that transfers to DAPTs will be suspect for the 10 years prior to the date that a bankruptcy petition is filed.

UW Madison: Helps commercialize inventions
CONTACT: Jim Steele, email@example.com, (608) 262-5960
MADISON - When Jim Steele thinks back over the last seven years, from the early research on biofuels, followed by a dream of moving Lactic Solutions LLC technology to the marketplace, and now the acquisition of the company by Lallemand Biofuels & Distilled Spirits (a unit of Lallemand Inc.) last month, he is thankful for the network of UW-Madison entrepreneurial experts.
"UW-Madison is unique, according to my colleagues at other universities," says Steele, co-founder and CEO of Lactic Solutions and UW-Madison Winder-Bascom Professor of food science. "UW-Madison may be ahead of its peers in providing support to entrepreneurial faculty and staff. However, most faculty and staff, including us in the early years, are not aware of the resources available to them."
Steele's advice for anyone else at UW-Madison with an idea for a product or interested in commercializing a discovery, is to get plugged into the university's entrepreneurship pipeline early and take advantage of the tools available for turning those ideas into commercially viable solutions.
In Steele's case, partners in the process for Lactic Solutions have included the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation's Accelerator Program (AP), UW-Madison's Discovery to Product (D2P) office, the Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center (GLBRC), gBETA, UW-Madison's Law and Entrepreneurship Clinic and the Business and Entrepreneurship Clinic.
Steele and Jeff Broadbent are the scientific leads at Lactic Solutions. Broadbent is the associate vice president for research and associate dean of graduate studies, and professor in the Department of Nutrition, Dietetics and Food Sciences, at Utah State University. Together, their research is based on understanding the basic physiology, genetics and ecology of lactic acid bacteria.
Lactic acid bacteria are common contaminants in ethanol fermentations, where they compete with the yeast for nutrients and reduce biofuel yields. Industry typically uses antibiotics to control these contaminants. Lactic Solutions products are engineered lactic acid bacteria that produce ethanol and inhibitors active on the contaminating bacteria. These new products are of value to fuel ethanol producers interested in higher ethanol production yields and reduced consumption of antibiotics.
Steele's research was originally funded by the Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center. The GLBRC is led by UW-Madison, with Michigan State University as a major partner, and is one of three bioenergy research centers established by the U.S. Department of Energy in 2007.
"We received funding from GLBRC and that was the beginning of the process. Because of GLBRC's early support, we then received a five-year grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture," Steele says. "That gave us stable funding and we were able to develop the data to support our first patent application."
Steele says it was serendipity that led him to call Beth Werner, senior intellectual property manager at the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation (WARF) on a Friday to discuss his patent idea. He said he was considering sending an abstract for publication on Monday but was having second thoughts.
"I asked if we should bother to protect the concept and Beth said we should," Steele recalls. "We worked on writing the patent over the weekend and that became the foundation of Lactic Solutions."

The affordable smartphone market is flooded with new entrants, giving shoppers a wide range of options to choose from. The sub-Rs 15,000 price range has been extremely popular among consumers, and manufacturers are tapping into that by launching competitive devices. LeEco Le 1s is growing to be one of the most popular choices, and here's a comparison of the handset with InFocus M680, which has been priced similarly.
Shopping for a new smartphone can get tricky, especially now that several companies are looking to gain maximum share of attention with slightest upgrades over rivals. If you have narrowed down your smartphone list to a select few, LeEco Le 1s and InFocus M680 are the devices worth checking out. To make it easier, we have compiled a spec-sheet comparison of both the phones.
Design and display
LeEco Le 1s has a premium metal unibody with great looks. It has a 5.5-inch Full HD display with Floating Glass 2.0 technology and ultra-slim bezels. InFocus M680 also has full metal body with an identical look. The handset looks equally appealing and also boasts a 5.5-inch Full HD display.
Processor, RAM and storage
LeEco Le 1s has a 2.2GHz 64-bit octa-core MediaTek Helio X10 processor and 3GB RAM to handle tasks seamlessly. In our review of the handset, we found it quite responsive and handled multiple tasks with ease. InFocus M680, on the other hand, is powered by a 64 bit 1.3 GHz Octa-Core processor ( MTK MT6753 chipset) combined with 3GB RAM.
The performance on the Le 1s is expected to be much better than that of InFocus M680. LeEco also beats its rival in the storage department with 32GB onboard memory while InFocus offers 16GB storage. The microSD card support in the M680 can overcome the storage issue.
Le 1s features a 13-megapixel rear-facing ISOCELL 5P Lens camera with Blue Glass IR filter, f/2.0 aperture, 0.09 second ultra-fast focus speed, PDAF and LED flash. The front camera has a 5MP wide-angle lens for selfies. The camera produced great-to-decent images under different lighting conditions.
As for InFocus M680, camera is the biggest USP for the device. It is powered by 13-megapixel cameras on both sides with f/2.2 aperture and Samsung 3M2 sensor. The rear camera offers different modes such as Motion Track, Live Photo and more.
Software and add-ons
Both phones run on Android 5.1 Lollipop OS and support 4G LTE bandwidths. LeEco Le 1s has its own custom eUi skin to make users' experience unique. In addition to that, the Le 1s is equipped with world's first mirror-surfaced fingerprint scanner at the rear and it is quite responsive and accurate. This feature, however, is missing in the M680.
LeEco Le 1s has a 3,000mAh battery with quick charging capabilities, which according to the company offers 3.5 hours of talk time with just 5 minutes of charge. In our review, we found the handset to charge quite rapidly and deliver decent battery life. There's also a USB Type-C port to connect the charger to the phone, which makes it the cheapest smartphone in the market with the feature.
InFocus M680 has a 2,600mAh battery, but we haven't reviewed the device to tell how long it can last before running out of juice.
Price and availability
Both phones were launched at Rs 10,999, but the M680 now sells for Rs 10,499. In terms of availability, buyers will have better luck purchasing the InFocus M680 as it is available freely without any flash sales on Snapdeal. Sadly, that's not the case with LeEco Le 1s, which is available exclusively on Flipkart and the next sale is on February 9, 2016.
LeEco Le 1s is available only in gold colour while InFocus M680 comes in silver and gold hues.

Volcanic Eruption in Eyjafjallajökull
Buy Collectibles
for only GBP£15.94
The volcanic events in Eyjafjallajökull started on March 20 2010 with a relatively small eruption on Fimmvörðuháls. The eruption came to a close April 12 but only a day later it entered a new phase, creating an enormous ash cloud that led to the closure of most of Europe's IFR airspace for a few days – the highest level of air travel disruption since the Second World War. Thick layer of ash fell on some Icelandic farms and pastures, making it very difficult to continue farming or grazing livestock. Hundreds of farmers and their families in the worst affected areas had to be evacuated. By 21 May the eruption had died down. In earlier eruptions the volcano became dormant for a few weeks and then erupted again. There is at present nothing indicating a new eruption. Recent measurements of the quantity of ejected tephra indicate that 140 million cubic meters of tephra fell in Iceland alone.

Slate finish refrigerators, such as slate French door refrigerators, slate side-by-side refrigerators, and slate top freezer refrigerators are the most appreciated appliances, according to product ratings on The Home Depot website.
GE claims that slate has a warm, rich look, and it regards the finish as an enhancement to the style and design of the company's appliances. According to The Home Depot appliances website, slate refrigerators have earned at least four out of five stars in review ratings. GE claims that slate appeals to every taste and that it achieves perfect harmony with every other material, including granites, composites, organic glass and wood, and color. According to consumerreports.org, slate finish refrigerators are better than those with the sleek stainless steel finish because they do not show fingerprints. Slate is also usable as a surface finish on floors, and GE offers a slate cook-top among its slate finish appliances.
Slate is an appliance finish created by General Electric Appliances for its major appliances. Created as an alternative to the shiny stainless steel, the dominant finish in many appliances, slate is a gray-toned metallic finish that is featured across a suite of GE's appliances. GE slate finish appliances include refrigerators, gas and electric ranges, dishwashers, ovens and microwave oven.

When not busy watching the wrecking ball destroy the old transbay terminal this morning, I was touring the Millennium Tower. For those of you that aren't familiar with it, the Millennium Tower is at the corner of Mission and Beale streets in San Francisco's Yerba Buena mls subdistrict.
The Millennium tower actually offers three different residential living experiences to prospective buyers. These are the Millennium City Residences in the 11 story building adjacent to the main tower, the Millenium Residences on floors 3 – 25 of the tower, and the Millennium Grand Residences, starting on the 26th floor and going up. Each has its own homeowner's association, concierge, lobby, and set of default finishes. All have access to the shared building amenities like the owner's lounge, fitness studios (pilates, yoga, etc. bring your own trainer), salt-water lap pool, fitness center, outdoor decks, kid's play area, and wine lockers.
The city residences are on the east side of the Millennium Tower, and tend to offer a more "bohemian" or "new york loft" style living experience (although how many bohemians could afford a $1.2 million 1+ bedroom condo is open for debate). Whatever you call them, we like the high ceilings and layouts that are more open or flexible, depending on your favorite adjective. Photos of unit #404 are below, which can be yours for roughly 1.2 million dollars.
The grand residences on the upper floors of Millennium Tower are exceptional. From the 26th to the 48th floor, there are 6 homes per floor. On the 49th floor and above, there are four homes on each floor. The standard finishes in a grand residence at the Millennium tower are solid plank beech hardwood floors in the foyer, kitchen, living room, and library, teak studio becker cabinets, marble countertops and backsplash in the kitchen,Wolfe and Miele stainless steel appliances (including a five-burner cooktop), a 48″ Sub-Zero refrigerator and a wine cooler. The feel and color palette of these finishes is a bit more pleasing to my jaded eye, but your mileage may vary.
We viewed two grand residences at the Millennium, one a tricked-out unit on the 47th floor, with finishes that clearly demonstrated while you can buy a luxury condo you can't buy taste. The second theory about my reaction to the finishes on the 47th floor were that I'm just too poor to know pretty when it smacks me upside the head. Residence 47B is on the northeast corner of the Millennium tower, and when I wasn't running in fear from the overstuffed-floral-print sofa or the mirrored tile backsplash in the kitchen, I really couldn't help but admire the views!
The second grand residence was 55A, which is perched high above San Francisco on the 55th floor. It is currently being used as a sales center, so don't think you have to put conference tables in the bedrooms like they did. (I'd also like to point out that there is probably no need to keep the large letters with the building name in the foyer, unless you have memory issues…). It is a rather large and impressive floorplan, clocking in at over 2,300 square feet of luxury views on the northwest corner of the building. The northwest corner of the building has been a rather popular seller in the building, so this particular residence can be yours for about $3, 910,000. But there aren't too many left, so move sooner rather than later.

Dual Degree - Freie Universität in Berlin
Freie Universität Berlin, was founded in 1948 by a group of students and teachers who had been excluded from Universiät Unter den Linden (today: Humboldt Universität)in the Soviet occupied part of the city. Freie Universität Berlin is one of the largest German universities, with 29,000 students, including 15% international students. In 2007 and 2012, Freie Universität Berlin was awarded the Excellence status by the German Excellence Initiative for a period of five years. Its department of Political Science, the Otto-Suhr-Institut für Politikwissenschaft (OSI), is one of the most renowned in Europe.
Mastering the German language and a good knowledge of German politics are essential assets in Europe where the Franco-German relationship plays a major role. In France, public and private sectors are looking for experts to enhance the exchange, work and engagement with Germany. Obtaining two Masters from two renowned institutions is therefore a unique opportunity offered by Sciences Po and Freie Universität Berlin. For over thirty years, these two institutions have maintained privileged relations based on full recognition of the teaching provided by each of the partner institutions.
The Franco-German study program was founded in 1991 and has trained hundreds of students who hold positions of responsibility in national, European and international institutions as well as the media, the private sector and research.
The dual degree Sciences Po - Freie Universität Berlin was awarded the " DAAD Excellence Award" (German Academic Exchange Service).

Student testimonial
"The dual degree "Politikwissenschaften- Affaires Internationales" at Sciences Po Paris and FU Berlin offers the chance to study in two different university systems in two outstanding European cities – Paris and Berlin. As I am very interested in international energy politics, I specialized in International Energy at Sciences Po Paris. While the classes were very practice-oriented and focused on economic aspects, I can now focus on a broader range of political sciences topics at FU Berlin. However, it is still possible to pick courses relating to the specialization I pursued at Sciences Po. Of course, the different approaches in France and Germany can be quite a challenge, but I personally consider them an opportunity to approach topics differently. Besides, I strongly recommend taking advantage from the possibilities students have to get involved in activities beyond University, which also help to sharpen the professional and academic profile."
Lilly Höhn Dual degree Sciences Po - Freie Universität Berlin
The Alumni Association
The "Association Gerhard Kiersch Verein" (AGKV) was founded in 1995. Its name is intended to preserve the memory of a Professor at the Otto-Suhr-Institut , who initiated the Franco-German dual degree between Sciences Po and Freie Universität Berlin in the early 1980s.
It brings together current students of the program and alumni to build a strong European network through its links with stakeholders in the political, economic, social and cultural sphere. In fact, many alumni currently work in diverse sectors including international organizations, the media, public services, business, consulting and research.

Filippo's gonna kill me.
But I can't let this go. 'No more changes' he'd said. That was a week ago. But this change is so good it needs to go in.
I text Paul a photo of the design change. "Nice." He replies. Nice spurs me on.
I'm trying to think how to word the email to Filippo.
"Hi Filippo, loving what you're doing. Mate, could I ask you for one last, last favour?! I feel bad even asking but-"
Nah too eager, too weak. He'll spot me a mile off. What combination of words will lead Filippo to make this change? I text Paul asking how to word it. He doesn't reply.
Maybe I should go in hard like, "Filippo. Need a change executed soon as. Top of the list. Let me know when you have it done."
He'll destroy me.
I've designed new buttons for Story's main screens. They have icons on instead of text. They make the thing look gorgeously minimal and, due to the buttons being bigger, it's more functional too.
I'm sure it's not that much work. I mean, I don't know coding but I'm sure it isn't more than 20 minutes work. 30 tops. That's what I picture in my head. Probably exactly how it is. No worries. I'll just say that.
Oh god. Kill me now. I'm a... client.

Dear Guest,
Welcome to my website.
I'm a young Hungarian artist who's passionate for what he love the most, art.
My love for art started when I was a little boy. My whole family is packed with amazingly talented people. Some of them are great in visual arts, some of them are great musicians, some of them are great in poetry and the list goes on.
I'm so grateful to my mother who introduced me to art when I was little.
If we had time we always went to museums and happenings.
When I got older I went to high school and studied visual art and history of art.
Later I wanted to go to the Hungarian Academy of Fine Arts but I had been rejected and
I didn't have the opportunity to try it again. I went to Kodolányi János Collage instead and graduated there as a cultural manager. But it hasn't became my daily job, for seven years now I'm working as a video technician.
My love for drawing and art has been relegated but never forgotten until two years ago when the flame of my passion started burning again. My beautiful and beloved wife and my amazing family was encouraging me whole the time until I had the self-confidence to show my art to the world.
I made a website and I'm drawing, painting ever since.
Last year I had the opportunity to learn from a great Hungarian painter dr. Ferenc Kesztyűs, who's my mentor since then and I'm very proud that I can be his student.
He's the co-founder of the amazing silicone painting, which will be the next big thing! It's literally indestructible and has beautiful colors which won't fade out with time ever!
I really hope you like my artworks. If you do please let me know!
I'm all over social media so you can find me on instagram, facebook, twitter, even on youtube with drawing videos if you search for 5wingerone.
5wingerone is my nickname and kind of a brand now, so don't be confused, if it's 5wingerone then it's me Arnold Réthy!
Thank you for being interested about my work.
Best regards,

Hello Ben,
Yes. You would just need to have Vista installed first, then do a clean install of Windows 7 on another hard drive or partion.
Hope this helps,

Windows 7 Ultimate Vista Ultimate x64
Yes most of us are dual booting with Vista with 0 problems, just create a partition or formate the drive you are going to install on and do your install from boot up and you will have the option of what partition you want to install on, select the one you want and start the install.
Once you have it installed it will be the default OS and if you want to change that just go into the start menu and type msconfig and you can change the default OS from there and you can change how long you want the boot options to stay there at start up.
If you want to access your Vista install from within windows 7 you will need to go to disk manager and assign a drive letter to your Vista partition and then you will be able to access it, although you may not have all the permissions when you want to access your vista user files and to gain permisions you can use this tutorial to help you.

Hi Neverhavemoney and hello again Shawn and Ted.
I've been thinking about this dual boot with Vista 64 all week and have been much encouraged by this vid on a link provided by Mr Grim on around page 14 of the welcome thread:
Windows 7 Forums - How to dual-boot Windows 7 BETA on a Vista computer
Also I've downloaded the beta and just need to burn a disk and do it.
However , tonight I've been looking at my hard drives and realizing that I'm not that confident about partitioning them
It's a bit complicated. My disk 0 is my original hard drive and once had XP Pro on.
This has a 441GB volume which is my media stuff- thousands of image files+my music and a few movies
Then there are two partitions which used to contain Ubuntu and are now empty- one 23.6GB and one 1.06GB.
My Disk 1 is my c: drive and contains my boot, system, all programs etc.
This is a 466GB volume and that is where I'm thinking Windows 7 should go but I'm not sure.
When I had the Ubuntu install it was a while ago and it carried it's own partition tool. It was very straight forward and virtually idiot proof.
Problem is I can't remember much about it and I don't think it was typical because , as I say, Ubuntu did it for me.
It would be handy to slot it in where Ubuntu used to be- the two small partitions on my storage drive (0)- but I imagine that would mean some complex boot issues.
Basically I don't know how to proceed.
I'm not sure how well I've explained this but any help would be welcome, best to you all, John

Hi John,
It's pretty simple to do. You can do it from the Windows 7 installation disc during installation with the Drive (Advanced options) link. You can use the Extend option to shrink Disk 1 by how many MB you want for the Windows 7 partition. Afterwards, just select that new partition and continue installing Windows 7.
Hope this helps,

Just to back up what has been said, it's really easy to set up a dual boot config.
To paraphrase the more detailed instructions, it is essentially:
1) Format a new simple NTFS partition within your spare disk capacity using the built-in storage management feature in Vista. You are probably going to want at least 20GB of blank partition to install programs as well as the OS.
2) Autorun your Beta installation disc, and use the advanced install feature to select your newly created partition as the location for the Windows 7 install.
3) Windows 7 installs into the new partition. When this is completed, on restart you will now always get a boot screen option to select between Windows 7 and Vista. Windows 7 will be the default, but you can change the default back to Vista using the MSCONFIG utility within Windows (you can also reduce the autoselect timeout for OS on boot from 30 seconds to as low as you want using this utility).
4) Enjoy your new superfast clean install of Windows 7! You can even access your existing Vista files on other partitions / drives.
5) When it come to the time when you want to remove the beta, you can simply delete the whole Win7 partition from within Vista, but be aware that you might have to use your Vista recovery disk to rebuild the boot sector.
Finally, unless you are using a standalone PC to test windows 7, do not even consider doing an upgrade install over the top of your existing copy of Vista on a production machine. Don't forget this is Beta software that you are testing after all; you cannot rely on it to work without problems, and at the very best your licence will expire on 1st August.
Dual Boot has to be the way to go to ensure that you continue to have a supported installation, whilst now having the ability to experiment with Win7.

Hi Ceejay, thanks for the reply.
I'm trying to shrink the volume on my c: drive in Computer Management-disk managment.
When I try to shrink volume I'm told there is only 56mbs and if I click shrink I get a error from logical disk manager saying access is denied.
56 mbs is not enough anyway but it won't let me do it.
This is a 500gb HDD with 352GB spare capacity so I'm doing something wrong.
Anyone help me out?
Thanks, John

For many English people in the 19th century the idea of the moated English manor house with its small agrarian community and long history going back to the Anglo-Saxons connoted the quintessence of their national identity. Baddesley Clinton could well stand as an icon of that view – a small moated manor house in rural Warwickshire in which a thousand years of history have gradually accumulated and remain an immediate and forceful reminder of it. Part of that history is its very long association with Roman Catholicism. The Ferrers family who have held it for nearly 500 years remained steadfastly Roman Catholic after the English Reformation and the house has its fair share of features from that troubled time.
Archaeological and historical opinion has it that there'd been an Anglo-Saxon manor here in the ancient Forest of Arden prior to the Norman invasion of 1066. Along with many others it was given to the Norman knight Geoffrey de Wirce and then later to Nigel d'Albini whose son later gave it to Walter de Bisege whose grand-daughter Mazer married a Sir Thomas De Clinton. Their son James and / or his father Sir Thomas are thought to have dug the existing moat about 1230 and possibly a second outer one as well and erected a gated entrance on the east side rather than on the site of the later present one on the north side. With the moated house came the demesne or land farmed by the Lord, and in addition to this the selions, or strips of land separated by raised banks farmed by the peasants. They were often serfs, bound for life to the Lord of the manor who held land in return for service. There remains clear evidence of their strip farming or "ridge and furrow" between the church at Baddesley and the house. Other than the footprint of the moat, nothing visible remains of the built C13th century structures, the earliest extant and visible evidence of buildings comes from C15th and C16th centuries and this has been absorbed as a patchwork into later buildings. The manor was acquired by John Brome in 1459 (murdered 1468) and his wife Beatrice built the eastern family ranges and the new east entrance. Their grand-daughter Constance married Sir Edward Ferrers (c.1468-1535) and Baddsley passed into the Ferrers family. It was Edward Ferrers between 1526-36 who substantially re-executed the east wing and also built a new sewer along the south front and a new gatehouse range and drawbridge, porters lodge and other rooms. Later, between 1570-1580 his grandson Henry Ferrers "the Antiquary" (1549-1633) constructed a new south range including new staircases, the Great Parlour and the present Great Hall. He also remodelled the interior and added much heraldic stained glass. The earlier medieval great hall survived as part of the kitchens until it was demolished at the end of the C18th century. In the C17th century a new Great Parlour was created over the main entrance looking out through a new, large mullioned window over the bridge. This has a magnificent barrel vaulted plaster ceiling. There was little significant new building work in the C18th century, merely maintenance and consolidation, re-roofing the south range and rebuilding parts of it in brick and a new brick bridge was built to the gatehouse in 1720's. The present kitchen was created between 1747-48 out of what had become the servant's hall which previously had originally been the great hall in the medieval period and was later demolished in the 1790's. This work included building a new hearth and chimney, the flue of which passed through what is now the chapel's sacristy. Another chimney was erected in the great parlour in 1752. In the late 1890's new servant's accommodation was added to the south west range by Mr Dering in black and white timber work (see image of the courtyard above). In the 1940's Thomas Ferrers-Walker re-created the sacristy next to the chapel on the first floor, which had been removed to create the chimney from the Kitchen in the 1790's. The National Trust acquired Baddesley Clinton in 1980 and since then has supervised a program of restoration, conservation and repair.
The Great Hall
A medieval manor was a complex social unit for communal living overseen by a Lord of Manor with extensive legal rights over the people and property within it. The Manor house's main building was the Great Hall, a communal space for dining, receiving guests, entertaining, and dispensing justice and for sleeping. It often had a shallow dias at one end with a high table for the Lord, his family and guests of rank. It typically would have had a solar or sleeping chamber above or behind this end and perpendicular tables and long benches below the dias for everyone else. At the opposite end would be the screens passage and beyond that the kitchens, pantry and buttery – a place for keeping barrels or "butts" of beer and wine. Baddesley Clinton had such a timber framed great hall in its earliest form in the C13th century. The great hall as it was later re-created in the C18th century by Henry Ferrers, "the antiquary" was in a slightly different location on the site – where it is now – and although designed to look "medieval" was quite different in function from that earlier predecessor. It has three windows which face on to the courtyard and another north of the fireplace. The room is entirely lined in C17th century oak panelling.
The large chimney stack protrudes well into the hall and has a very beautiful late C16th century chimney-piece which was moved to the Great Hall from the Great Parlour over the gateway in 1752. The rectangular fire-place is flanked by half-baluster pilasters enriched with scrolls, conventional foliage, flowers, and lions' masks. It's surmounted by an over-mantle with a central, round escutcheon in round moulding enclosing a carved achievement of arms of Ferrers of Baddesley quartering Brome, Hampden, and White, with a crest of a unicorn all within a round moulded rectangular frame displaying six small shields of arms. There are flanking caryatids (Pevsner has them as Altlantides) in Elizabethan costume and a reticulated cornice above. The design of the over-mantle is reputedly modelled on plate LXIIIIr I, Book IV "On the Five Styles of Building" of Sebastiano Serlio's Five Books of Architecture although the similarity can only reasonably be applied to the lower register of the fireplace opening, its jambs and lintel. The upper register or over-mantel of the Great Hall chimney-piece is entirely different, it has flanking caryatids / Atlantides rather than consoles, strap-work, a round rather than oval central escutcheon and it is without the surmounting, winged Scallop shell. If another example is sought from Serlio for that upper register it is closer – though only distantly – to Plate XXXIIIIv of the same book where the escutcheon is round but all else is different. The strap-work in the upper register in the Great Hall fireplace is certainly not Serlian at all, it's more Flemish in feel and might indicate a design source from later published Flemish "interpretations" of Serlio – for example Hans Vredeman de Vries (1527 – c. 1607) or Hieronymus Wellens de Cock (1518 – 1570). Pevsner suggests Wendel Dietterlin the Elder (1550-1599) as a possible source and indeed his treatise "Le Livre de l'Architecture. Recueil de Planches donnant la division, symétrie et proportion des cinq ordres, appliques à tous les travaux d'arts qui en dépendent tels que fenêtres, cheminées, chambranles, portails, fontaines et tombeaux" does contain illustrations which are similar to those of Baddesley Clinton's Great Hall over-mantle decoration. It is often repeated that the "…the parts of the upright section to either side of it [the fireplace] were re-installed in the wrong order."1 p.45. A comparative examination of Serlio's illustrations would indicate that this is not the case and that in fact the Georgian masons got it right. Chimney-Pieces of a similar compositional form though different detail can be found elsewhere in England from this period for instance at Red Lodge in Bristol and (although less elaborate and smaller) in the Parlour at Little Moreton Hall.
The Drawing Room and Dining Room
Next to the Great Hall are the Drawing Room and Dining Room. The Dining Room was once part of the medieval porter's lodge and later in the 1630's it was converted into a private parlour for the family. It has some good stained glass coats of arms of Henry Ferrers (d.1526) and his wife Katherine Hampden and of Sir Edward Ferrers (d.1535) and Constance Brome and Henry Hampden and his wife Elizabeth Ferrers, daughter of the aforementioned Sir Edward. It has late-16th-century oak panelling and the east fire-place sports a richly decorated, three-bay chimney-piece with four pilasters, the outer two of whichdescend to the floor. The central bay has a coat of arms of Ferrers. The Drawing room in the north-east angle was rebuilt along with the rest of that part of the house in the 1790's and is lined with late-16th-century oak panelling and has a west fireplace flanked by fluted oak pilasters and a contemporary over-mantel with carved shafts and a heraldic shield of Ferrers and White. It also has stained glass windows one from the 1690's and the other from the 1890's.
The Bedrooms
The C16th century staircase in the SE corner of the Great Hall leads to the first floor, the bedrooms and chapel. Henry Ferrer's bedroom (yellow on the plan) refers to Henry the 'Antiquary' (1549-1633) and his wife Jane (d.1586) who built a great deal of the south range, including the Great Hall and converted the upper rooms of the porters lodge into the Great Parlour. It was he who extensively remodelled interiors and added much of the stained glass. This bedroom is a remarkable survival not only in the quality of the elaborate carved and decorated chimney-piece, over-mantle and oak panelling (c.1629) but in that their construction was recorded in considerable detail by Sir Henry in his diary.
Next to Sir Henry's bedroom is the Blue Bedroom. The chimney-piece and over-mantle here are attributed to Edward Ferrer's (1585-1651), son of Sir Henry. The Oak panelling is of about the 1630's but the Oak half-tester bed (which is very fine) is a much later addition, brought from an inn at Appledore in Kent by Lady Chatterton.
The Chapel
Upstairs on the 1st floor there is much of interest, in particular the chapel and the sacristy which are in the oldest surviving part of the house, in the position where in the medieval period the link would have existed between the Great Hall and the Lord's private chambers. The room which is now the chapel was most likely used in the 1590's as a bedroom and chapel by the family's Jesuit priest. It went out of use for 60 years at the beginning of the 19th century but was re-consecrated in 1875.
The reredos depicting Christ in the Garden of Gethsemane was painted by Georgina Lady Chatterton (1806-76, m.1859) and there are other painted panels of scenes from the passion of Christ as well as the triptych of the Virgin and St John to the right of the altar painted by Rebecca Dulcibella Orpen Ferrers (1830-1923). There are fascinating Spanish leather gilded wall panels (now covered in Perspex) which were acquired by Lady Chatterton. The chapel was reconfigured and refurbished to its present state in 1940 by Thomas Ferrers-Walker, using early photographs and paintings as sources for the design as it had been in the C19th century.
The Library
In the north-west corner of the house is the library. At one time a bedroom, it was converted into a library in the C19th century by Marmion Ferrers. Like many other rooms in the house it is oak panelled and the fine carved oak over-mantle with three round-headed panels above a stone arched fire-place was installed by Edward Ferrers in 1634. A small chamber which cut off the south of it in 1754 is said to have some traces of old wall-painting. The book collection is mainly on history and genealogy and some of the collection dates from before 1760 when the first surviving inventory was taken.
Marmion Ferrers and Rebecca Dulcibella Orpen Ferrers
Baddesley Clinton's survival into the C20th century depended in part on one of its more colourful squires in the 19th century, Marmion Ferrers (1813-84) who did much to retain and celebrate its historical uniqueness. He was it is fair to say a traditionalist with a penchant for the antique, both in furnishing, manners and personal dress. He was a squire of the traditional kind, a benign overseer of the household and wider village and agricultural community and as a Victorian gentleman he existed in conscious contradistinction to the industrial world of nearby Birmingham. His wife Rebecca Dulcibella Orpen Ferrers was a talented and active artist who filled the house with family portraits, landscapes and very helpfully pictures of the house. They were never a very wealthy family so when Rebecca's wealthy aunt Georgina, Lady Chatterton and her second husband Edward Dering came to live with them at Baddesley Clinton because they liked it the fortunes of the house were improved greatly and the four of them got on very well. Edward poured substantial funds into the maintenance and development of the house which meant that it could remain in the Ferrers family. They were an artistic grouping with connections to Dickens and Wordsworth and Rebecca and the Derings became Roman Catholics in 1865. All four of them helped to restore the house and re-create the chapel, they dressed in historical clothes and were perhaps viewed as slightly eccentric by some of their contemporaries but by no means all. There was a taste for this kind of antiquarian lifestyle throughout conservative parts of Victorian society.
The last of them Rebecca died in 1923 leaving the estate to nephews and trustees who could not afford to keep it up. In 1932 the house was photographed by Country Life magazine and in 1939 it was put up for sale, what furniture was left was sold off (some of it to Baron Ash at Packwood House) and in 1940 the house itself was sold at auction. It was eventually acquired by distant relatives Thomas Walker (1888-1970) and his wife Udine (1894-1962) and they changed their name to Ferrers to continue the tradition of the association of the name with the house. Their son Thomas Weaving Ferrers-Walker (1925-2006) passed the house to the National Trust in 1980.
The most complete history of Baddesley Clinton is the Rev. Henry Norris of Tamworth's 1897 volume, "Baddesley Clinton, its manor, church and hall. With some account of the family of Ferrers, etc." London; Leamington. Art & Book Co., 1897. 1.The National Trust Guidebook "Baddesley Clinton" by Jeremey Musson, 2015, ISBN 978-1-84359-444-4 is also most useful. There is of course Pevsner, Nikolaus and Wedgwood, Alexandra, 1966, Buildings of England: Warwickshire p. 81-2.

Sunday evening, immediately after putting our two year old to bed, my wife and I watched 60 Minutes and settled in to begin to enjoy what we thought would be a 'relaxing' evening. Unfortunately, one of the lead stories that the program featured involved the dangers of 'button batteries'. These batteries are especially dangerous to small children, because, as I learned from the show, the electrical current of the battery, once stuck in the esophagus, literally burns through the tissue surrounding it, causing holes in the esophagus. They are also, unfortunately, very easy to get stuck in a child's throat.
My mind starting racing; "OK, what products do we have in the house that are powered by button batteries?" My concern was well-justified, as the vast majority of these tragic incidents occur to children under the age of four. Scouring the internet this morning, I found several articles warning the parents of small children about dangers they should heed. Sadly, I also saw blogs from the parents, in which they recount how they lost their child because of such a tragedy. These products are not the subject of recalls, mind you. These are batteries found in everyday products that you may have in your home. The damage can be permanent and may effect your child's ability to eat and drink permanently.
I found a warning on-line from the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), going all the way back to March of 1983, almost 30 years ago:
Technologic advances in electronic miniaturization have increased the availability of miniature (button) batteries in homes..in watches, calculators, cameras, hearing aids, and games. Although the vast majority of these button batteries, when accidentally swallowed, will pass through the person without any problem, occasional severe complications and even fatalities have been reported. Batteries may become lodged in the esophagus or intestine, slowly leaking alkaline electrolytes and causing an internal chemical burn.
Battery ingestions are preventable. Important prevention and treatment information is available based on preliminary results of a National Button Battery Ingestion Study conducted by Dr. Toby Litovitz, director of the National Capital Poison Center, of 62 button battery ingestions reported to the National Capital Poison Center in the past 9 months, 59% involved batteries that were left out loose rather than properly discarded or stored; 39% of the batteries were in the product they were intended for, and removed from the product. Half of these batteries were in hearing aids.
Fast forward to the present, and the warnings are all over the place. In a recent article from examiner.com out of Baltimore, the urgency of getting the button battery out of the child as soon as possible is emphasized, due to how quickly damage can occur to the child's throat:
The research also found there is only a two hour window to get the batteries out when lodged in the esophagus, which is less time than previously reported. Delayed removal can result in serious injuries such as tissue tears, burning, and internal bleeding .
Where can these batteries be found, and what can we do to help safeguard our children? A recent Reuters article provides us with some guidance:
They warn parents to keep not only loose batteries out of children's reach, but also the household products that contain the batteries. In about 62 percent of cases where a young child swallowed a button battery, the child fished the battery out of a household item.
For an additional barrier, the researchers advise parents to place strong tape over the battery compartment of all household products.
They urge extra caution with any 20-mm lithium cell batteries, which can be recognized by their imprint codes — usually CR2032, CR2025 or CR2016.
On a final note, another danger is that doctors sometimes misdiagnose the injury, as the symptoms can be non-specific at times:
The current study found that in the majority of fatal or severe injuries, no one had seen the child swallow the battery. And because the symptoms of poisoning are non-specific — such as fever, vomiting, poor appetite and lethargy — doctors often initially misdiagnosed the problem.
Of course, the key is not to let your child get a hold of these 'button batteries' to begin with. We strongly urge you to check your homes for these products and to take the appropriate steps to safeguard your family. We are also again providing the link for the CPSC, as we have previously done so many times in our website's blog, for additional follow-up information.

Performing the role of the good Samaritan to the nation-wide fraternity of automobile hitch-hikers, the owner of a service station in Albion, Mich., recently established a hitchhikers' depot hard by his row of gasoline pumps. Nailed to a tree, a large sign visible to approaching motorists at a good distance, identifies the spot, while a painted hand, with the thumb outstretched in the traditional manner, does the spade work for tired hikers.

Storage in or around Cambridge
Hi all. My wife and I have recently relocated to Cambridge and are now settling in. Since we are moving into something considerably smaller, we are now looking for a place to store some of our belongings (max 4 CBM of space needed). I have looked around the web, and am pretty amazed at the storage prices I have seen thus far, which start at 40 GBP per month for essentially nothing Protected content - if not less). Any hints/tips, or is storage just pricy?

24/12/2004 to 25/12/2004: Sydney, Australia
Towards the start of my first backpacking adventure, I had been living in a 3 bed dorm with two friends overlooking Bondi Beach in Sydney for several weeks. I was in Australia on my Working Holiday Visa with a company called Bunac, of which there were 11 of us in Sydney still.
Christmas Eve was spent with my room-mate Matt, doing an evening cruise around Sydney Harbour full of backpackers. The cruise price included alcohol and food. I was a backpacker on a boat with essentially free beer, therefore I do not remember much of the cruise itself. I do remember dancing, and panicking when there was only an hour left of free beer. This was the first time I experienced first hand a bar-man making me drink water before they would give me another beer. After the cruise we had a complimentary return bus journey to the relevant part of the city, being a bit drunk, we got on the first bus we saw, and ended up in Kings Cross. Our first stop was Empire Hotel, where we went into the bar, and received a stamp on our arms, so we could get into the club later on. After a drink, we tried getting into the club, only I could not for the life of me, find the stamp on my arm, Matt turned my arm over, for it to be there. The door-man refused me entry for being too drunk, another first while in Australia. We then presumably stumbled into a strip-club, I thinking maybe paying around $20 for entry. I went to the toilet, and when I came out I couldn't see my mate. I sat down and saw a woman on stage using a dildo with flashing lights on herself, this did my head in, and just left. Matt later said I walked passed him on the way out, he followed me outside and I was gone by time he got outside. I do remember getting into a taxi surprisingly quickly for Kings Cross, and headed back to Bondi. When I got to the hostel, I realised I had lost my room key, so I contacted my other room-mate, who was in Bondi Hotel. I walked down the road to Bondi Hotel where Sandeep was with some other Bunacers. He wouldn't give me his key, and wouldn't leave just yet, so I sat there. Then Matt appeared too. I then got kicked out of Bondi Hotel for falling asleep as too drunk. Matt left with me, but wouldn't trust me to come back with the key after TV room and watch a movie, all while I waited in the reception area.
Christmas Day, waking up early, hung-over, and covered in shampoo thanks to my room-mates after I passed out. Holly, another Bunacer was in the room too. The weather was overcast and the summer sun I'd dreamed of for Christmas Day at Bondi Beach. However, determined, we all still went down to the beach in the morning. There were several Christmas trees on the beach, and everybody had dug big holes in the sand to sit in to keep them warm. Myself and a few of the guys also still went for a swim despite the really cold sea. Re-joining the group, we play charades, with the easiest one to guess being the movie 'The Beach'. In the afternoon we went to the apartment of a few others in our Bunac group. There we were treated to a best attempt to a traditional British Christmas dinner, with a bottle of Jack Daniels. Harriet set sausage rolls on fire while we watched Sleepless In Seattle on TV. In the evening, we went to go to the only bar open on Christmas Day in Bondi, to find that it was already closing, and everybody was on the streets as it was so busy. We wondered the side streets looking for a party, to be greeted by a man dancing on his roof by himself. We tried their neighbours' house party, but everybody was already falling asleep. In the end, we sat outside on the street drinking, racing a shopping trolley down the hill to knock over a man's wheelie bins', and asking a taxi driver to take us to Dudley near Birmingham, to the response "Birmingham? That's in fucking England". A really funny evening with a lot of random conversations, and as a whole, a day completely different to the barbecue on Bondi Beach that I expected.

New Market Research Report Added in MarketResearchReports.Biz Reports Database:Future Mobile Phone-Cell Phone Technology And Functions 2014-2024
Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/18/2014 -- This report concerns the future technologies and functions of mobile phones (cell phones) and, to a lesser extent, the allied products phablets and tablets. The primary emphasis is on what will become possible in the next decade. The potential for mobile phones seems almost limitless so, obviously, no one report can cover everything. Indeed, sensors and other components in a phone may be introduced for one purpose and then used for others in unforeseen ways. Barometers and gyroscopes being used for inertial navigation are examples of this. In other words no one can predict all the things a mobile phone will perform or even how its existing and future parts will combine in "sensor fusion", "structural components" and so on, to achieve new this.

Nonetheless, this report clarifies many key trends, unfulfilled needs and future routes to commercialisation. This vision is based on a plethora of interviews, event attendance, data searches and careful analysis by the PhD level researchers at IDTechEx. It recognises that improving the hardware and firmware are just as important as adding new infrastructure such as ubiquitous contactless charging and Real Time Locating Systems (RTLS).
What is the importance of forthcoming functions and enabling technologies such as Indoor Positioning Systems (IPS), the Internet of Things (IoT) and printed electronics? For the next decade, what is the market for planned tightly-rollable displays and key parts of them such as transparent conductive films, of which use in mobile phones forms just a part? How can the human interface be radically improved and the intolerably brief availability of today's smart phones before recharging? What new components will be useful in mobile phones and how will they merge? It is all here with the main emphasis on what is coming beyond improved integrated circuits.
This is the master, overall summary report of the new IDTechEx Mobile Phone series of reports which has in it reports going in depth into specifics. For example, there are reports separately covering IPS, NFC, energy harvesting, OLED displays, stretchable electronics and printed electronics.

Is it possible to have a split-screen/pane view in iwork that resembles the one in office mac?
True, but it is possible, if somewhat confusing, to have multiple copies of the same document open to different places in that document.

Looks grand. Do you use that mold culture spray on the casing?
We're merely mammals. Let's misbehave! Cole Porter
"Do you use that mold culture spray on the casing?"
Yep, there's a culture added to the meat to help lower the ph and another sprayed on the casing.It keeps the wild molds from getting started and looks really cool.
Tummy growling. Mmmmmmmmmm
Bump, Salami Calabrese

salami2 001 test.jpg
Looks grand. What sort of casings did you use? And what grinding plate?
My sausage-making is on hold 'til I get a decent grinder. I'm looking at a hobby model, since I never do more than 5 pounds at a go.
I'll try stuffing with it before I decide if I want a separate stuffer. The old hand-crank grinder I found isn't so good and the KitchenAid mixer attachment doesn't stuff evenly– the tray and the chute are so small that it's tough to keep the thing filled.
Right now I'm devouring my experiments. Not great, but definitely edible.
We're merely mammals. Let's misbehave! Cole Porter
I used a 4 in dia collegen casing. They shrink with the meat as it dries. This was ground through the coarse plate, 1/4 in. If I can offer advice on they grinder,get the most powerful one you can afford.Also the separate stuffer makes things easier for one person.
Some more sausage. This is a Peperone from the book Charcuterie. All beef and very little fat and just a touch of heat. It could stand some more heat,next time.
peperone 006.jpg
yr making magic. Love the pics.
you don't eat the fuzz right?
Yep, fuzz and all. The "fuzz" is a live culture sprayed on the sausage to choke out wild molds and improve the look. It has a mild taste that compliments the meat.
Watch out for mice.
Did a trial run with the new meat grinder, a #12 kitchen grinder from SausageMaker.com (see above). It has a 2/3 HP motor and the spec is that it grinds 3 pounds per minute. Since I've never done more than 5 pounds at a go, that seemed like the right choice.
We had a package of arm chops, 2 inches thick and rather fatty, from a whole lamb we bought from the uni meat program that included some weird cuts. So I cubed them and loaded them up.
Used a 3/8 inch plate, medium-coarse, and packed the ground meat into plastic tubs for freezing, after which they get vacuum-packed. This is the yield of one chop, just over a pound. I set aside enough for a couple patties and had a fry-up for lunch.
The next test is how it stuffs sausage. I've got an overstock at present, so once I eat that up, I'll give it a go.
We're merely mammals. Let's misbehave! Cole Porter
Nice looking grinder,Mine is similar but 1/2 hp. One little trick I was shown is to use dried bread at the end of the grinding. It pushes the last of the meat through so it all gets ground with no waste.I just started 7 lbs of salami and I'm looking for a different type of sausage to try.Maybe a saucisson sec or maybe a smoked sausage.
Bresaola...dry cured beef
breasoal april 002.jpg
That's a useful trick, with the dry bread. The bresaola looks good. Is it a beef round?
Probably my favourite smoked sausage so far is Chef Milo's Country Venison Sausage, p.155 in the Charcuterie book.
I used pronghorn antelope and pork. A friend gave us some whitetail deer roasts, so I might make it again. I promised Herself to eat up all my previous experiments before starting any new ones, and I'm down to three packages in the freezer.
We're merely mammals. Let's misbehave! Cole Porter
Prosciutto..... It starts. A pork leg sans shank and boned. My butcher tells me he does these like this for several prosciutto making customers. It ended up at 10 lbs after the trim.Now its into the drying cab for a year. I'm hopeful,wish me luck.

After my adventures with the wine closet, I decided to build a box like you did.
I've got sheets of polycarbonate left from the greenhouse and aluminum moldings. Also have a low-wattage panel heater and a thermostat. It's so much drier here, that I'll need a little humidifier.
A question: does your box have adjustable vents for airflow from and to the outside? Or is it sealed?

Exodus 16 1599 Geneva Bible (GNV)
16 1The Israelites come to the desert of Sin, and murmur against Moses and Aaron. 13 The Lord sendeth Quails and Manna. 23 The Sabbath is sanctified unto the Lord. 27 The seventh day Manna could not be found. 32 It is kept for a remembrance to the posterity.
1 Afterward all the Congregation of the children of Israel departed from Elim, and came to the wilderness of [a]Sin, (which is between Elim and Sinai) the fifteenth day of the second month after their departing out of the land of Egypt.
2 And the whole Congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses, and against Aaron in the wilderness.
3 For the children of Israel said to them, Oh that we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh [b]pots, when we ate bread our bellies full: for ye have brought us out into this wilderness, to kill this whole company with famine.
4 ¶ Then said the Lord unto Moses, Behold, I will cause bread to rain from heaven to you, and the people shall go out, and gather [c]that that is sufficient for every [d]day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in my law or no.
5 But the sixth day they shall prepare that, which they shall bring home, and it shall be twice as much as they gather daily.
6 Then Moses and Aaron said unto all the children of Israel, At even ye shall know, that the Lord brought you out of the land of Egypt:
7 And in the morning ye shall see the glory of the Lord: [e]for he hath heard your grudgings against the Lord: and what are we that ye have murmured against us?
8 Again, Moses said, At even shall the Lord give you flesh to eat, and in the morning your fill of bread: for the Lord hath heard your murmurings, which ye murmur against him: for what are we? your murmurings are not against us, but against the [f]Lord.
9 ¶ And Moses said to Aaron, Say unto all the Congregation of the children of Israel, Draw near before the Lord: for he hath heard your murmurings.
10 Now as Aaron spake unto the whole Congregation of the children of Israel, they looked toward the wilderness, and behold, the glory of the Lord appeared in a cloud.
11 (For the Lord had spoken unto Moses, saying,
12 I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel: tell them therefore, and say, [g]At even ye shall eat flesh, and in the morning ye shall be filled with bread, and ye shall know that I am the Lord your God.)
13 And so at even the quails came and covered the camp: and in the morning the dew lay round about the host.
14 And when the dew that was fallen was ascended, behold, a small round thing was upon the face of the wilderness, small as the hoary frost upon the earth.
15 And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, It is [h]Manna, for they wist not what it was. And Moses said unto them, This is the bread which the Lord hath given you to eat.
16 ¶ This is the thing which the Lord hath commanded: gather of it every man according to his eating, [i]an omer for [j]a man according to the number of your persons: every man shall take for them which are in his tent.
17 And the children of Israel did so, and gathered, some more, some less.
18 And when they did measure it with an omer, he that had gathered much, had nothing over, and he that had gathered little, had no [k]lack: so every man gathered according to his eating.
19 Moses then said unto them, Let no man reserve thereof till morning.
20 Notwithstanding, they obeyed not Moses: but some of them reserved of it till morning, and it was full of worms, and [l]stank: therefore Moses was angry with them.
21 And they gathered it every morning, every man according to his eating: for when the heat of the sun came, it was melted.
22 ¶ And the sixth day they gathered [m]twice so much bread, two omers for one man: then all the rulers of the Congregation came and told Moses.
23 And he answered them, This is that which the Lord hath said, Tomorrow is the rest of the holy Sabbath unto the Lord: bake that today which ye will bake, and seethe that which ye will seethe, and all that remaineth, lay it up to be kept till the morning for you.
24 And they laid it up till the morning, as Moses bade, and it stank not, neither was there any worm therein.
25 Then Moses said, Eat that today: for today is the Sabbath unto the Lord: today ye shall not [n]find it in the field.
26 Six days shall ye gather it, but in the seventh day is the Sabbath: in it there shall be none.
27 ¶ Notwithstanding, there [o]went out some of the people in the seventh day for to gather, and they found none.
28 And the Lord said unto Moses, How long refuse ye to keep my commandments, and my laws?
29 Behold, how the Lord hath given you the Sabbath: therefore he giveth you the sixth day bread for two days: tarry therefore every man in his place: let no man go out of his place the seventh day.
30 So the people rested the seventh day.
31 And the house of Israel called the name of it Manna, and it was like [p]to coriander seed, but white: and the taste of it was like unto wafers made with honey.
32 And Moses said, This is that which the Lord had commanded, Fill an omer of it, to keep it for your posterity: that they may see the bread wherewith I have fed you in wilderness, when I brought you out of the land of Egypt.
33 Moses also said to Aaron, Take a [q]pot and put an omer full of Manna therein, and set it before the Lord to be kept for your posterity.
34 As the Lord commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up before the [r]Testimony to be kept.
35 And the children of Israel did eat Manna forty years, until they came unto a land inhabited: they did eat Manna until they came to the borders of the land of Canaan.
36 The omer is the tenth part of the [s]Ephah.

U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder is known for doing controversial things. His endorsing a proposal Thursday that would lead to shorter prison sentences for many convicted nonviolent drug offenders is one of them.
But it is the right thing to do. Federal and state prisons are overflowing with people who have been incarcerated on drug convictions.
Holder's action should help pull down the cost of locking people up. States like Missouri and Kansas spend millions of dollars a year to house people in prisons. Taking such offenders through strictly enforced rehabilitation and community service is the better way to go.
In addition to the cost of incarceration and building more prisons to house men and women, society also pays in the loss of people who otherwise would be employed, earning a living and contributing to their families' and community's well-being. Reversing the more than 30-year trend of locking people up in the so-called war on drugs is a good thing overall.

Toxic mercury versus appropriate technology: Artisanal gold miners' retort aversion
Mercury-usage in artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) has accelerated in developing countries during the last thirty years resulting in negative environmental and health impacts. As awareness of mercury contamination from ASGM has grown, a number of strategic initiatives have been introduced to reduce the impact of the toxic substance. The adoption of the retort, a device capable of recycling up to 95 per cent of mercury in gold extraction, constitutes a broadly recognized approach. Based on case-study research in Tanzania, this paper examines an ASGM area, which has been targeted by several mercury-reducing efforts. Based on survey data, key informants interviews, and visitor observations, the paper examines the impact of these efforts on mining techniques and residents' attitudes towards the use of mercury. Despite the seemingly obvious advantages from adopting retorts or other mercury-reducing techniques – economic, environmental, and health-wise – miners continue to use mercury haphazardly, while demonstrating an only limited awareness of the toxicity of the substance. The paper discusses the possible explanations behind this as well as possible ways forward in facilitating the reduction of mercury in ASGM operations

Acreage/Semi-Rural Sold
Unimpeded 360 Degree Mountain Panoramas of World Heritage Listed National Parks
Property ID 1678193Quality scrub country, solid infrastructure, plentiful water, established gardens and waking up to an ever-changing mountain vista - "Hillvale" offers an enviable opportunity for a new purchaser to simply walk in and enjoy all the hard work that has come before them.
The time has come for the owners to downsize and move closer to their family; and so they have reluctantly decided to take their beautiful 40 acre property to auction. The impeccable care and maintenance of the property is immediately noticeable - and the sellers want to pass it on to a new owner who will care for, love and enjoy the property as much as they have.
The property is located in the beautiful Scenic Rim Region, on a very quiet, private lane. Renowned for having some of the most productive lands in the Scenic Rim, this quality lifestyle farm sits in an enviable location between Roadvale and Coulson. Amazingly though Hillvale is only an hour from the hub of Brisbane's CBD and just over an hour to Main Beach at Surfers Paradise.
Designed and built by the current owners, the home has been very deliberately positioned to maximise the absolutely magnificent 360 degree mountain panorama.
The four bedroom, single level home features prominent views from every window, with the large wrap-around patio providing a perfect location for indoor/outdoor entertaining with the option to enclose the entire area dependent on weather.
Features Include
• Split system air-conditioning
• Separate lounge, dining and family rooms
• Large outdoor patio with blinds and electronic rollers
• NBN connected
The good quality scrub country of predominantly Rhodes Grass has easily run a dozen bullocks in the past. Water comes from the dam and Roadvale Water Board to the paddocks, troughs and to the house for domestic irrigation, while a bore also sits on the property.
Established gardens currently grow avocados, mandarins, figs, mangoes, bananas & lemons.
• 3 easy to maintain and fully fenced paddocks with water connected to the troughs in the front two paddocks.
• A large 4 bay shed with 3 lockup bays with concrete floors and a tractor shed on the side
• Cattle yards
• 3 phase power
• 12,000 gallons rainwater storage
• 5 kw Solar Power
• Bore
