Ruby Gardens, Lagos and had their church ceremony and reception at Landmark Events Centre, Lagos. The couple looked amazing in their different outfits for both ceremonies.
we wishes the couple love and happiness together.
By The Bride, Folake
I was in Lagos for a month in January 2016 and I attended a traditional engagement. I returned back to The UK and the bride called me that a friend of her husband saw my picture and he asked If we could swipe numbers and that was it. He lives in America and I live in the UK. So since the 8th of February, we only had phone conversations. He was due to travel to Nigeria in May so we had to make that a meeting point. He planned to do a stopover in Paris since he has never been there and wanted to explore the city. He asked if I could join him and I said yes. Paris was so much fun that he decided to return back to London with me for a couple of more days before travelling to Nigeria.
I went to my boy's house as he just got back from Nigeria from his traditional engagement. A group of us met up at his house to look through his wedding pictures and that's when I saw Folake. I just had to ask who she was and if I had a shot with her. It just so happened she was single. I was given her number with her permission and that's how it started on the 8th of February 2017. Since Folake and I lived in different countries, I had to think quickly how we could meet. I was due to travel to Nigeria in May so I asked if she would be okay travelling to Paris as our first official meeting as I really wanted to explore Paris with her and she agreed. After talking on the phone for a few months, we met in Paris May 2016 then I travelled back to London with her.
By The Bride, Folake
When I met her in Paris, I knew I was going to marry her! Six months after we met in Paris, I started shopping for rings (never been here before I didn't know what I was looking for). I read articles on how much an engagement should be based on a man's salary. I asked for her input on what type or shape she wanted her ring to look like. So, I integrated her input, the articles, and mine and when I saw the ring I knew this was going to be it.

Villa Asimenia is situated in Agia Triada / Rethymno on the Greek island of Crete. Villa Asimenia is just a short distance to the sandy beaches of Adele and Platanes along with the historic town of Rethymnon; perfect for a evening visit.
Rethymnon is on Crete's north coast and ranks as the island's cultural centre being home to several museums, to the philosopical branch of the University of Crete, and other famous landmarks. The Fortezza, a fortress from the Venetian era, overlooks the picturesque Port of Rethymnon which is framed by the modern port's piers. The Old Venetian Town radiates out from the fortress along narrow lanes with small shops, arts and crafts workshops, restful bars, and numerous restaurants. Every Thursday, the port hosts the legendary weekly market of Rethymnon.
Georgioupolis is a former fishing village by the western end of the bay of Rethymnon. Recently, the old fishing port was extended to accommodate a small marina and the landmark of Georgioupolis is a tiny white-washed chapel at the end of a jetty. Within the village and around the port are numerous tavernas and bars where you can absorb the local atmosphere as it has been enjoyed over the ages.
Vamos is a historic village set within scenic hills and due to its strategic location many battles have taken place there. The village is a delightful mix of traditional architecture with many now restored with several interesting Churches. The highlights are the excellent village Tavernas and Kafenions.
Almirida, a tiny village around a small sandy cove with miniature port. It is famous not just for the amazing soft sand, but also for the fine handmade glass that is made from it, using traditional techniques. The beach, quaint tavernas and bars means Almirida should be on your 'must visit' list for Crete.
Kokkino Horio is inland of Almirida and is where you can visit the interesting caves and tunnels that were constructed by the Germans during the occupation of Crete (1941-45). The location was also used in the 1964 film 'Zorba the Greek' starring Antony Quinn.
Balos Lagoon: is a beautiful beach covered with fine white sand giving the sea a dramatic emerald color. In front of the beach is the picturesque island of Gramvoussa. Balos Lagoon is accessible by boat (from Kissamos) or via a rough track. It is one of the finest beaches on Crete and definitely worth a visit.

Welcome 2007
Happy New Year!
I began the New Year with the Eucharist Celebration with the Pope at St. Peter's Basillica and and on this World Day of Peace, the Holy Father invites us to reflect on the theme: The Human Person, the Heart of Peace.The Pope states: "I am convinced that respect for the person promotes peace and that, in building peace, the foundations are laid for an authentic integral humanism. In this way a serene future is prepared for coming generations."

If you ever needed a reminder that God is at work pop out to your local high street or market place and ask the following question over a free hot drink: "If you could ask God one question and you knew He would answer it, what would you ask Him?"
Our Go Team from South Carolina did that and the results would surprise you. Hundreds of people on the street stood at our table in polite conversations with a hot drink asking about spiritual matters. Over five afternoons we were able to share the gospel with over 200 people. Young and old they kept on coming with searching questions about God.
Our team are trained to win the person to Christ, not try and win the argument. We presented the Good News hundreds of times and gave out 200 personalised copies of the Gospel of John as a gift for seekers to read more about this life adventure with Jesus. We are planning our biggest outreach of street teams next year for the dull duration of the Edinburgh Festival.

I know it is a little past due (blame good friends, good food and a long overdue rest!!!)
I Hope Everyone had a Very Merry Christmas!
I would also like to wish you all a Wonderful New year to come.
Thank you to everyone who ordered cakes in 2011, I loved every minute of it, I hope to be able to create more magic for you in 2012, all ordering will resume after January 20th****
( I really need a little break!! ZzzzzZZZzzz ).
Christmas present cake 2011
This was a cake I made for a Christmas table centerpiece.
Red velvet cake on the inside.
I deliberately gave the fondant a slightly 'baggy' look to simulate paper wrapping.
(Yes, it fooled quite a few who didn't look closely enough!) Hah!
The ruse was discovered when an inquisitive guest gave the cake a gentle poke to check.
(Click images to enlarge)
Last-Minute New Years Eve Cupcakes (and I do mean 'last minute') 🙂
I had a last-minute call for a NYE batch of cupcakes (literally just under 1 hour) Yikes.
Red velvet cupcakes with Vanilla butter frosting.
(A quick visit to the fridge cooled those cakes in record time while I created the all edible glittery fondant lettering with the speed of an African swallow in a tail wind, so forgive me the less than perfect rush job!) 😀
I'm usually a diligent perfectionist but there was NO time to fuss!!
Then it was a mad dash out the door into the car and off I went, it was a hard task fending off sticky fingers till midnight at the party and no they were not children *grin*
Come Midnight and they all vanished like the memory of 2011!!!

Hey everyone!! Thanks for coming back. 🙂
Now, I know you are just dying to know what the trends are for those trendy New Years Eve party's. So I looked around on some of my fave fashion sites, and found the perfect outfits for you!
Here they are:
That is an ah-dorable pant suit from Coldwater Creek (left). I love how put together it looks!
This is a very cute dress.
This tunic is so chic!
I would wear it as a minidress with leggings, or as a top, with skinny jeans. The color? Red.
This is a tweed jacket. I would not wear it with the tweed skirt. Wear it with a black skirt, with a popping color cami underneath.
Rrowr! I ♥ these. (gloves, left)
This is a simple, very trendy scarf. But, if you are more daring, find a patterned scarf instead.
Boots are so in. Are UGGs on the way OUT? Possibly. I hope that slouchy ones like these replace them.
Hugs and air Kisses,
The Fashionista

Joint Informal Stocktaking Plenary
Delivered by Commissioner Yeb Sano
2:00 a.m., 11 December 2011
Durban, South Africa
Thank you Madam President.
I have here in my hand hard copies of the Convention and the KP as printed in 1998. I have used them for 13 years and I hold them dearly. I am afraid these booklets are in danger of being relegated as relics of a lost era.
In the past week, we were also witnesses to the thousands of people who wore "I love KP shirts." I'm afraid these I love KP shirts are in danger of becoming mere souvenirs of a lost era – an era that is at risk of losing our existing legally-binding rules-based regime that aims to avert the most serious threat to humanity.
I wish to express my deep concern to know that after over 5 years of negotiations on the Further Commitments, and I emphasize Further Commitments, for Annex I Parties under the Kyoto Protocol, we have again come short of arriving at a ratifiable amendment to KP's Annex B that would have ultimately gotten the Kyoto Protocol out of intensive care and back into life. I am deeply concerned that we have come short of this and have once again procrastinated.
We were expected to send a strong political signal to the world in the form of adopting fully ratifiable amendments for the establishment of the 2nd Commitment Period of the Kyoto Protocol.
Madam President, we have endeavored to help Africa save the KP and achieve ultimate success here in Durban, not just to protect multilateralism, but to avert the climate crisis. We have made progress, but we need to continue our work. And I join others in thanking you and I congratulate you for your effective leadership and stewardship of the process in this session.
Madam President, it breaks my heart to see that this room is divided. I plead with everyone, let us not pit one against another. We are against one real cruel enemy – and that is climate change.
We are all for environmental integrity. We are all for sustainable and equitable growth. I must stress that equity is a fundamental concept whose reflection in our processes will ensure that we obtain a fair and just outcome that achieves the objective of the Convention.
It likewise breaks my heart to see that developing countries whose peoples struggle every single day have to bear the blame. Again I plead, let us not pit one against another. We all have one common future.
My delegation agrees that legally binding is important. We were open to a legally binding instrument, as we agree that a legal regime is important, but it should have been with the view to save the Kyoto Protocol. It seems to me that we have procrastinated once more. We have no gotten KP out of intensive care. MLK once said "How soon 'not now' becomes 'never'". And I'm afraid that as we have delayed the most ideal way to save KP, it is at great risk of dying and its fate remains uncertain. Perhaps Madam President, and I respectfully borrow the words of the great Mandela, "there is no easy walk to freedom."
I want to end on a positive note. We are on the verge. We are one world. We are one global community. And we have no choice but to walk together on this journey.
We want to end any gathering with a triumphant note, and for us to triumph here, we need to heed the call for urgency.
Allow me as well to recognize the role that the youth delegates in this Conference in pushing us to do our work.
In closing I quote Archimedes, who said "If I have a lever long enough, I can move the world." Madam President, our collective will in this very room is that lever, and if it is long enough, we can move the world.
Thank you Madam President.

When you're starting in social media, you need the most possible information when beginning. The hard part of gathering information is finding it all at once. Fortunately, the following article will give that advice.
Be careful when hiring a company to handle marketing via social media. It is not uncommon for these agencies to use unscrupulous and unfair business practices to cheat business owners of their money. They use thousands of fraudulent Facebook, Twitter and YouTube accounts, made through automated registration bots and proxy servers. No matter how much you pay the company, your ad may never be viewed by an actual person, even if it has a high view count.
To succeed in the social media marketing game, you need to act like you're successful until you actually are successful. Know what your competition does for their social media marketing and mimic it until you know what works for you and your customers. Look at their content on social media, and focus on the promotions they offer.
Someone Else
You may want to either write a blog for someone else's site or let someone else write a guest blog on yours. Both methods can increase traffic to your site. Be sure that part of the guest blogging contract involves the blog owner linking back to your own site. You should allow all guest bloggers to post their own links on your blog as well. You will likely get more visits to your blog and your site doing this.
Ask for help when developing a social media marketing campaign . This will help you to tap into the expertise of some of the best designers and consultants in the business. They are expensive, so you will need to spend a lot if you choose to go this route.
Utilize tags when you post on Twitter. Certain subscribers are updated if you use tags. Find tags that would be followed by potential customers and people who would be interested in your industry.
You can now link all your blog posts to LinkedIn. When you post your article, it will be displayed as a LinkedIn update. That saves you time and exposure for your products increased by blogging for site visitors and LinkedIn contacts at once.
The typical image on social media expertly captures your attention. Many are photoshopped so they are more intriguing. Using these images is very smart because it draws peoples eyes to your ad. If they are attracted to the ad, it is more probable that they will end up visiting your site and buying something from you.
Communicate with your customers directly on social media sites as a person representing the company. No customer wants to have a conversation with a large establishment, but rather an individual. When a customer knows there is a compassionate person at the other end of their Internet connection, they will have more confidence in your business.
Before any content is posted on the site of your business, it should be approved by you or another person with clear authority in the matter. Sometimes social media pages go viral, so be careful of making mistakes. It will make for much publicity, but probably not the right kind.
Utilizing social media networks to host online Q&A sessions can really help you gain exposure. You can effectively teach your customers about your range of products or services while creating content for your website via FAQ entries. Since the sessions are interactive, they can make your business feel more personal and relevant to the visitor.
Many companies have discovered the benefits of hosting affiliate and employee blog posts on their official website. Blogs like these can give others a glimpse into what your business is like. This serves as a window into your business' culture, atmosphere and operations that are used to provide the products and services your clientele come to you for. Letting customers see what goes on inside is a great way to get them to put more trust into your business.
Holding events such as a photo contest that relate to your business is a wonderful way to involve your followers in your social media marketing campaign. Ask customers to create photos of themselves using your products and offer prizes for creative photos. People will end up sharing pictures with you and others in their list of friends; those friends may not know you, and when they share the photo they give your company wider coverage in new markets.
Stay active with Facebook. Respond when someone makes an inquiry about your business. Engage in conversations and answer all questions that come your way. This will make customers feel appreciated and help to increase your popularity.
Discuss your friends and family members on your blogs. It may feel awkward, but it will give people comfort to know that they are not your very first friend and that other people like you. You can blog about friends from time to time, or you can simply send someone a shout-out. For added impact, you should also include links to other social media platforms.
Help visitors easily share your blog posts with their friends. Add a Facebook button on your posts to allow users to share them. While it is an additional step you must take, there will be a worthwhile difference if you do it.
Marketing in more than one country requires more than one strategy. Learn about world regions and countries and specifically target your marketing. Visitors will feel a closer connection to you if you don't seem foreign.
Social Media
Identify your competitors. Then look at the specific ways in which they are adjusting themselves to use social media. Closely look at both their successes and their failures. After you do this, take what you learned and apply it towards helping your business thrive through social media marketing.
As was mentioned near the start of this article, discovering sound knowledge and facts is among the best actions you can help your business with. The possibilities are practically endless, and you can always benefit from different insight. Apply the advice and insights listed in the preceding paragraphs, and you'll witness marketing dividends in the near future.

Patient: I had screws and plates placed in my head to repair a skull fracture seeral years ago. I am 37 wks now and was wondering because I am at high risk for spinal meningitis, if it is ok to have an epidural or spinal block?
Doctor: After several years your skull fracture must be already healed and the osteosynthesis material should be incorporated, so at this time your risk to develop an infection is like everybody else that is given an epidural or spinal anesthesia. In fact, the bacterial meningitis is a very rare complication of epidural or spinal anesthesia, there are other complications as headaches or nerve damage, but even these two have a extremely low incidence like 1%.

I am still on day one of the Inspiration Showcase Card Class. I have gone through the lessons for the first three days, but I am behind in class. That is Okay, I am having fun learning about all the techniques that Jennifer McGuire is teaching. She is an awesome teacher and she makes some gorgeous cards. Thanks Jennifer for teaching this class.
The technique that I used for this card is called "Patterned Paper Trapped Embossed Resist". I stamped the Lotus background (CG349) stamp with clear embossing ink onto pattern paper. Then I heat embossed with clear embossing powder. When the embossing was cool, I rubbed Faded Jeans distress ink all over the embossed paper. Then I buffed the resisted ink with a dry cloth. Once the technique was finished, I assembled the pieces for my finished card. The sentiment (Smiles and Laughter F2361) on the tag was stamped on white cardstock in black ink and I used a decorative edge corner punch for the bottom of the tag. Thanks for stopping by and I appreciate the comments. Have a wonderful day.

Intel Modular Server System
This all-in-one system, built on Intel® Multi-Flex Technology, supports six compute modules, each supporting up to two Multi-Core Intel® Xeon® 5000 sequence processors, and up to 32 GB of memory, virtualized shared storage with fourteen hot-swap hard disk drives, an integrated management module for centralized management, redundant Ethernet switches and storage controllers.
Unfortunately, we don't have any manufacturer specs for this product yet.
Let our community answer your questions!
Product Reviews
Looks like the product is getting cancelled. It could have been a great product if they had made a smaller sized 3 blade version. It's a shame. IF they had kept on supporting it, it would be a 5 star. With EOL it goes to a 1 star. Makes a great test bed for non production work. You can probably pick up used systems and components for dirt cheap once everyone retires the systems and vendors dump inventories.
I've been using the MFSYS25 Model for 2+ Years and I just bought a second one. The WebGUI is wonderful and easy to understand. Intel has more improvements in the works for this system, like a 10GBase addon switch, and SAS 6Gb/s SCM upgrades. My only real complaint about this system, is the Switch management module, feels slow and cumbersome.

Now this is going back in time more than a little, as the round in question was played on October 5th in balmy, almost summery conditions, which made the experience all the more remarkable. The recollection, however, remains keen and undimmed, as Remedy Oak – despite its relative youth, having opened as recently as 2006 – is a very special course indeed. It's an Open qualifying venue, which tells you something about the quality and challenge of the place. So how does an ordinary golfer make it on to such rareified tees? By knowing someone who has just had a notable birthday and has a wife sufficiently generous and imaginative to buy him a fourball there, that's how.
From the moment you are buzzed through the big security gates and then drive for several minutes through rich Dorset farmland before the clubhouse comes into view, you know you are in no ordinary surroundings. The welcome when you get there is genuinely warm and friendly, and as the starter invites you on to the first (perfectly manicured) tee, you know you are in for a remarkable and entertaining four hours. The course, designed by John Jacobs, is sculpted out of beautifully mature Dorset woodland, with a fair bit of water for good measure, and is a thing of beauty, or rather 18 things of beauty, and that's without reckoning in the velvet-turfed fairways and closely shaved greens. The four tee boxes (the purples make for a course length of over 7000 yards) tailor the severity of the undertaking to the capabilities of the player: we played off the yellows to face a sensible challenge of 6053 yards.
The signature hole of the course comes early in the form of the double dogleg par 5 second, and it certainly does sum up the beauties and the challenges of Remedy rather well. Your tee shot requires you to clear an expanse of scrub (most tee shots here do, so you can't ever afford to top it) and place your ball pretty precisely on the fairway (again, most fairway shots require accurate positioning) to allow you to play another precise shot through the avenue of trees to land just short of the water, over which you will play diagonally to reach the green. Go right on your third shot and you are in the wet stuff, push it left and you are in the gorse bushes. Get it just right and you can stroll across the little arched bridge that takes you to the green with the air of a golfer who knows what he is doing.
The toughest hole on the course, the par 4 7th is another exercise in shot judgement. Unless you are pretty long off the tee, you are unlikely to reach the sharp dogleg right and so have a clear view of the green; the greater likelihood is that you will be faced with a mid iron over a bosky little valley to the castellated green. Challenging stuff indeed. The 150 yard 9th brings you back to the clubhouse and a welcome midway refreshment tent before you stride off into the woods again, with two beautifully crafted par threes coming in quick succession on the 11th and 13th holes.
The gently arcing par 5 15th is also a particular joy, as is the simple but beautiful par 4 that follows it, and all too soon you are facing the peculiar challenges of the 308 yard par 4 last hole. Don't underestimate your tee shot, as leave it even a few yards short of requirements and you won't have a proper line across the large pond to the green way below you on the other side. To make your final iron shot even more knee-trembling you are in full view of the clubhouse as you pluck the club from your bag, take aim and fire across the water, hoping you don't mishit it and take out the members relaxing on the terrace.
And, the early October weather being kind, that is where we relaxed ourselves and relived the better – and the worse – moments of our round. Remedy is a special course, with the particular characteristic of making you feel like the only group on the course much of the time, such is the effect of the wooded setting of each hole. It's not easy, but – as mentioned – its challenges are tailored to the level of the player, and you will certainly want to return and face them again. Highly recommended.

Baby…… Finally Mummy finished scrapping your photo and placed it in the shadow box, this is to be placed it together with your urn.
Baby…… Did you notice the quote? "AND IN THE END, IT'S NOT THE YEARS IN YOUR LIFE THAT COUNT. IT'S THE LIFE IN YOUR YEARS."
Baby…… It suit you pretty well right? You do have a quality life although your life is short.
Baby…… Did you see the bow beside your fur? This is your bow, you remember? You do have a top knot long time ago before Mummy decided to give you back your boy boy identity. No regrets Baby…… you look cuter in short coat. Mummy still have two of your bows with me, going to do something about it.
Baby…… Mummy spent almost four hours on this layout, you know this is not like digital scrapping that you can afford to make mistake. Mummy got to be very careful with all the placement. Mummy did make a mistake, the rub on stitches accidentally glued it on your photo. In the end Mummy got to reprint your photo. Stupid Mummy should have cut out the part of the stitches that I need to use. Lucky Mummy managed to salvage it *grin*
Baby…… Mummy only cried twice during the whole process. It was when Mummy needs to transfer your fur to another clear plastic cover.
Baby…… your fur still feel so soft…… so soft…… then Mummy started to cry. Looking at you and your fur, Mummy cried even harder.
Baby…… Did Mummy tell you I already bought the box to keep your urn? Mummy still thinking of doing something to the box, no concrete idea yet.
Baby…… Your cozy corner is still half done, only when it's complete then Mummy will show it to you.
Baby…… Do you miss Mummy as much as Mummy misses you?

There are good things on the horizon for the Canadian real estate market. At least, so say the latest industry forecasts, which have just been revised upward. The Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) has just boosted its 2011 national forecast for MLS® sales. What's more, CREA has now also issued a very positive forecast for 2012.
The new forecast represents an upward revision to CREA's earlier national forecast for 2011. National MLS® sales activity is now expected to reach 439,900 units in 2011. This solid showing represents only a modest annual decline in the number of transactions of 1.6% below the previous year's active pace. In 2012, CREA forecasts that national sales activity will rebound by 3% to 453,300 units (which is roughly on par with the ten-year average for resale homes trading hands in Canada). CREA cites recent improvements in economic outlook, along with further expected improvement in consumer confidence as reasons for the upward forecast.
There's good news for homeowners and home sellers too, as property values are expected to continue their upward climb, although at a much more moderate pace. According to CREA, the national average home price is expected to rise 1.3% in both 2011 and 2012, to $343,300 and $347,900 respectively. The average price is expected to rise modestly in most provinces, reflecting the continuation of a healthy balance between supply of, and demand for, homes listed for sale.
Of course, this is just an overview of the national picture. Home prices can vary dramatically between communities, within neighbourhoods, and even on the same street.

We are able to help you get any style and design fence you need.
Read more of our raving client reviews from previous projects.
Fill out our online form right away! We will get you the estimate you need.
If you are thinking about
installing a new fence in Palm Beach, there are a few factors you should consider when deciding on the right
type. Think about why you want a new fence installation in order to get
a general idea of how it should function. Then you can decide how much
maintenance you are prepared to offer your fence and find a suitable fence
contractor to help you finalize the process. Read on for a closer look
at how to choose the best fence for your property.
Think About its Purpose
The first step in determining what kind of fence is best for your property
is deciding what kind of purpose it will serve.
Fences come in all different sizes, styles, and designs, so think about
what you want yours to accomplish. Do you want to fence off the pool in
your backyard to keep your children safe? Would you enjoy more privacy
when you relax outside of your home? Are you looking for a small picket
fence to outline your garden? Certain types of fences are better able
to accomplish these individual goals than others.
Consider Maintenance Requirements
Once you have assessed your reasoning for wanting a new fence, you can
then decide
how much time and effort you are willing to devote to maintenance. A tall wooden fence can offer
you extra privacy while enhancing the visual appeal of your home, but
it will require significant maintenance if you want it to stand up over
time. PVC fences, on the other hand, can be just as practical and nearly
as pretty as wood fences with much less overall maintenance requirements.
Find a Quality Contractor
A new fence can be a permanent investment as long as you go through the
process the right way. It is important to find a high quality contractor
or fencing company in Palm Beach that can help bring your fencing dreams
to life. Make sure that you are working with a reputable company with
the experience, tools, and determination it takes to meet and exceed your
fencing needs.

At a public rally in Ghaziabad, Samajwadi Party's Azam Khan made a statement that it was the Muslims who had won the Kargil war for India. Vice-Admiral Premvir Das, who retired as commander-in-chief of the Eastern Naval Command and was also a member of the National Security Advisory Board in the Prime Minister's Office, speaks to Manavi Kapur on whether such statements affect the morale of officers in the armed forces.
Azam Khan has claimed that it was the Muslim soldiers who won the Kargil war for India. Is there a basis for such claims?
This is a completely bogus and stupid statement. And as far as the armed forces are concerned, these divisive statements are meaningless to servicemen.
Do you feel that the contributions of Muslims are sidelined in the defence services, a claim that Khan makes? Considering that regiments are formed along regional and community lines, how does this help check tensions between officers?
As for the contributions of Muslim soldiers and officers being sidelined, this is absolutely not the case. Several chiefs of the armed forces have been and are Muslims. Air Chief Marshall Idris Hasan Latif is the former chief of air staff of the Indian Air Force. Lieutenant General Syed Ata Hasnain headed the Army Corps in Jammu and Kashmir - a particularly complex region in the country. In fact, Param Vir Chakra awardees, like Havildar Abdul Hamid, have been Muslims. The contributions of all officers are recognised equally, and to suggest that there is any discrimination based on religion or community is fictional.
With regards to the question about community-based divisions in the Indian Army, the facts are a little more complex. Only the infantry, which is just one-third of the Indian Army, is community based. The remaining two-thirds have divisions across work profiles and not communities.
Even in the infantry, only the soldiers are from the same community, their commanding officers could belong to any community or region. For example, the Gorkha regiment could have a Tamil officer heading it. Because of these community-based divisions, there may be instances where certain regiments, like the Grenadiers, could have a higher proportion of Muslims.
During the Kargil war, the Indian Army deployed 10 to 12 infantry regiments, of which only one was a Grenadier regiment. Khan's statement about Muslims winning the war is thus completely rubbish - it was the Indian Army that won the war for the country.
Was there any internal debate within the services regarding the deployment of Indian Muslims in Kargil during the war, considering the war with Pakistan brings to surface the myriad and complex communal tensions within Indian society?
The armed forces have fought Pakistan in 1965, 1971 and 1999. There was no consideration or debate whatsoever within the armed forces about the deployment of Indian Muslims. All our soldiers and officers fight for their country, keeping aside their religion and their communities.
Khan made these statements in Ghaziabad where a large percentage of voters are former servicemen. It is also the Lok Sabha seat from where the former army chief, General VK Singh, is contesting. How do statements like these, made during election season, affect the morale of officers in the services?
These mindless statements do not affect the morale of servicemen at all. Each soldier and officer fights for the izzat of his regiment, which, in the larger picture, translates into a fight for the izzat of the country.
If a soldier's commanding officer, the defence minister or even the prime minister of the country were to make such statements, it would be damaging and demoralising. Views of a politician like Khan are laughable. All servicemen, whether serving currently in the forces or not, will dismiss such riff-raff, though it may make them angry. But anger does not make them lose their efficiency, losing their morale does.
In the context of Ghaziabad and General Singh, I doubt it will affect any retired servicemen living in that area, irrespective of the percentage of Muslim votes. No Muslim in the armed forces ever though that he won the war - it was his country that won it.
These are not thoughts harboured by men in the armed forces, so these statements will not influence who they choose to vote for.

We've already encountered several films that have made Oscar history in one way or another and the next film on our list, Lilies of the Field, is no exception. History was made thanks to the film's only big name, Sidney Poitier, who became the first black man ever to win a competitive Oscar.
Although we've seen Poitier on Oscar-nominated form before, notably in The Defiant Ones, the 1960s was the decade in which the star really made a name for himself. The next three posts will look at films that Poitier starred in during the decade but we begin with the one in which he won his Oscar. For such a groundbreaking film, Lilies of the Field is quite a low-key affair in which Poitier plays drifter and jack-of-all trades Homer Smith. When his car runs out of water one day he stops to fill it up at a convent run by Eastern European nuns. As he's welcomed in by the convent's Mother Superior he unwittingly finds himself a one-day job as a handyman. However this one day job soon turns into a long-running affair as he discovers that the Mother Superior won't let him leave the convent until he's built the nuns a chapel. As he meets some more of the locals he learns of how the nuns have manipulated others in the past and realises that the best way to fix the situation is simply to build the chapels. As the film progresses Homer starts to sympathise with the nun's struggle to leave their native Germany, they had to climb over the Berlin Wall, and as he had always wanted to be an architect he sets about trying to build the chapel. As word spreads people from the mainly Hispanic community more people come to lend support and materials. However, Homer refuses their help wanting this to be a single-handed project. He eventually gets the help and the chapel is finished but Mother Maria is too proud to let him stay and so he slips away while the other sisters are singing one of the Baptist hymns he taught them.
Lilies of the Field is such a simple film but at the same time is lovingly produced and well put together by director Ralph Nelson. The main theme of the film here is outsiders coming together in this case an African-American drifter, a group of East German nuns and poor Hispanic families as they work to construct something that the community can be proud of. Poitier's performance is larger-than-life with his laughter being infectious and his general aura radiating from the screen. The fact that Poitier is the only big name star amongst the cast makes him stand out even more as he is deftly anchors the movie. As somebody who wasn't really aware of his work up to this point he certainly won me over and I think that he definitely deserved his Oscar for this part. Also earning an Oscar nomination for her role in the film was Lilia Skala as the manipulative but loveable Mother Maria. Cinematographer Ernest Haller also deserves some praise for perfectly capturing the exterior locations and the conditions in which Homer is forced to build the chapel. Overall I found Lilies of the Field to be a simple tale about makeshift families and accepting the gifts that are offered to us at the right time.

So I like a drink as much as the next person, however I'm more of a G&T and Cocktail girl if I have to be picky, and I do love my Sloe Gin.
This year has been a fantastic year for Sloes and I ended up after a heavy picking session with 7kg of the little beasts so of course what to make but Sloe Gin (I also made Apple and Sloe Jelly but that's another post all together)
Here are the fundamental Do's and Don'ts of Sloe Gin from the experts at simpsmith.com
Mistake 1: Initial Measurements Contrary to popular belief, there is very little point in adding sugar at the outset. Saturating the spirit with sugar prevents it from extracting the natural fruit sugars – and other flavours – from the sloes. Sugar should really only be added at the start to produce sweet sloes for baking or chocolates rather than good sloe gin. One of the common complaints about the standard sloe recipes is that some years they produce a too-sweet liqueur, while other years are not sweet enough. Sweetening to taste at the end of the maceration yields a perfect batch every time. If you use simple syrup instead of granulated sugar, you don't have to wait for the crystals to dissolve.
Syrup recipe: Combine equal measures of sugar and water in a saucepan over low heat. Warm the mixture until the sugar dissolves, then allow it to cool. If you prefer a higher strength sloe gin, it is possible to make syrup with three parts sugar and two parts water to reduce dilution. Add a little syrup at first, as it sometimes requires only a fraction of the quantity of sugar called for in standard recipes.
Mistake 2: Cheap Gin The second common error in most sloe gin recipes is using a cheap gin. Far from masking bad spirit, sloes highlight a gin's quality or lack thereof. It's worth splashing out the price of a high street cappuccino to upgrade to a better gin. Also, look in the liquor cabinet. If there's a dusty bottle of grappa, brandy, or Irish whiskey (well, let's face it, who really has a dusty bottle of Irish whiskey just lying around?), these are also great for making sloe liqueurs.
There are some absurd myths about harvesting and processing sloes floating around, and we think it's time to dispel a few of these:
1. Wait until the first frost to pick sloes. Great advice if the frost happens to coincide with the ripening of the sloes. Like all fruit, it is best to pick sloes …drum roll, please… when they are ripe. How do you tell when a sloe's ripe? Well, simply squeeze one. If it feels like a rock, it's not ripe. Ripe sloes yield to the touch like small ripe plums. There's no need to test each one. If a few are ripe, the entire crop is ready.
2. Mysterious pricking techniques. Some recipes say sloes should be pricked with a thorn from the same bush, which dulls after the first berry. Others require a silver pin. These are plums not werewolves. Romantic as they are, neither technique produces the best results. What you really need to do is place the sloes in a freezer bag and freeze them for a day or two. The point of pricking them is to rupture the fruit, allowing the flavour to leak out while they are sitting in the gin. Freezing ruptures the sloes completely and evenly.
3. Magical sloe locations. For some, it is a point of the utmost secrecy – they will never reveal where to find their secret stash of purple berries. However, there's a source plentiful enough to share, and closer to home than you might imagine.
So, the secret to making the best sloe gin?
Find good sloes (on the land or online), freeze them overnight, add enough fruit to almost half-fill a bottle, then top it up with good quality gin. Wait at least three months. Then add sugar or syrup to taste. It couldn't be easier, better or simpler.

I have previously provided a short write up about the very nice boutique hotel Muntri Mews which is located on Muntri Street (not far from Chulia Street) in Georgetown Penang. Previously the hotel only used to serve food on Friday and Saturday nights but that has now changed with evening meals being provided 7 nights a week.
In light of the change I visited the hotel again recently for an evening meal and to catch up with my friend Chona Bacani. It was a Thursday night and all the tables were full (I have since been during a public holiday week and the tables were again full) so it may be a good idea to book depending on which night you wish to go.
On this occasion I chose a chicken satay starter and a beef rib-eye rendang washed down with several bottles of Tiger at a very reasonable RM 8 per bottle. The satay I have to say was excellent and is easily on a par with that which I have had at my favourite satay hawker in New Lane. The chicken was moist, tender and VERY well marinated in a tasty blend of spices and soy sauce and was served with an equally delicious peanut and chilli sauce which made a for an exceptional starter. The rendang was also excellent. Again, tender pieces of meat served with a rich and fiery dark red sauce accompanied by steamed rice and enough salad to break up the dish with some variety. I finished off the meal with with a very nice banana fritter with ice cream with the fritter served in a crumb rather than a heavy batter coating which can at times be a little heavy. The whole meal, from memory, was only around RM 40 which was very good value for money.
I'm glad I returned to the Muntri Mews and will certainly do so again on a regular basis. They also serve a nice breakfast if you are in that part of town comprising either continental fare or tasty local Malay dishes with a range of hot drinks (an excellent latte), smoothies and juices. Very well worth a visit.

I've heard so much of Muntri Mews. Can't wait to stay there one day ;-)ReplyDelete
Yep, it's very nice. I also like the Yeng Keng mind, and both about the same price. I'd actually say the Yeng Keng has the better bar/seating area to be honest.ReplyDelete
Let me know if ever you plan to stay at Muntri. Will see if I can get you a rate from my friend there :-)

Flashes for Canon AE-1greenspun.com : LUSENET : Canon FD : One Thread
My wife has a Canon AE-1 and wants a flash for it for Xmas. I've done a little research but am having difficulty with understanding compatability for various flash models and her camera. As far as lenses go, she has a 50mm f1.8, a 28mm f2.8, and a 80-200mm f4.5. I would appreciate any recommendations of bouce capable flashes in the $50-$100 range. Any advice appreciated. Ryan
-- Ryan Smith (firstname.lastname@example.com), December 10, 2001
I have an AE1 and I bought a vivitar 283 for it $45.00(ebay), New they run about $65.00 (B and H photo) It has a tiltable head for bounce. the flashes made by canon for that camera, to my knowledge, did not have bounce capabilities. The canon flashes will set the f stop for you, the vivitar will not.
-- David Presson (firstname.lastname@example.com), December 11, 2001.
Canon's 199 and 299T flash will fit the bill but will be $$$. Both work well in auto mode - the 299T has the most features (swivel as well as program capability)
Have a look at this link for the manuals: http://www.canonfd.com/choose.htm
I also have both the Vivitar 3500 & 4600. These go for about 1/3 to 2/3 of the price of the equivalent Canon units. The 4600 also has different flash heads of varying power and capability. These units automatically set the body to flash mode if you get one with the correct Canon module. (Sometimes a used unit will have a module for a different brand - it may still work but you will lose the auto functions).
I'm not familiar with other manufacturers such as Metz and Sunpack but I'll bet they have similar products.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- While basketball teams are battling for the Big 12 Championship title inside Sprint Center, BBQ teams are fired up for the Big 12 Q Challenge.
In the hospitality lot on the northeast corner of 13th and Grand BBQ teams are throwing down, flipping and spritzing meat for conference bragging rights.
All 10 universities are represented here grilling for the title of Big 12 Q grand champion.
Joe Pence from Slap's BBQ in KCK is one of the people up early Friday cooking. He's representing the Baylor squad this year. He says local folks step up to help teams who can't send a representative.
During the competition, teams compete in the standard KC BBQ society categories including chicken, rib, pork and brisket.
Pence says including the cook-off, his team will make nearly 1,500 pounds of meat. Some for samples, some for hospitality tents, and of course the main competition.
"We are here to support the Big 12, but we're here to support Kansas City so there's a lot of people from out of town coming into our city and this is a good opportunity to show how friendly we are prone to go to bed and serve some good barbecue," Pence said.
If you're in the market for some free samples or BBQ tips you can stop by the Big 12 Q Prep School from 3 to 6 p.m.
As far as the competition, turn in times start at 1 and end at 2:30 p.m. The grand champion will be crowned around 4 p.m.
FOX 4's Al Wallace will be judging the BBQ along with Kansas City mayor Sly James and others.

Citizen participation benefits planning process
Guest Post by Martin Jeter
The county has been busy for the past year or so with the process of setting the new direction for growth in Prince William through the revision of the Comprehensive Plan, but have ordinary residents really been heard from and made a key part of the process?
Two "citizen" committees – the Land Use Advisory (LUAC) and the Mobility Committee – were formed to make recommendations to the Board of County Supervisors (BOCS) on the Comprehensive Plan. Although the idea of allowing normal citizens of the county to make recommendations on the future of the county is always a good idea, but as usual, the devil is in the details.Often, committee membership tends to be biased towards the development community by over representation with those employed by or related to the development industry, and the LUAC was a perfect example of this.
This bias has the predictable result of proposals such as those floated by members of the LUAC to remove 300 acres from the rural crescent and more than double the housing density in the mid-county area. Both of these proposals were introduced by members of the committee who would derive direct financial benefit from the changes, and were at least initially approved by a majority of the committee members. This was in spite of the fact that the same proposal to increase density in mid-county was made five years ago by the same folks and met with overwhelming community disapproval.
Another problem with the process is the lack of adequate citizen participation. This is partly due to the issue above, but also to public meeting scheduling problems, and the lack of citizen access to plans in progress. For example, the Planning Commission public hearing for the Comprehensive Plan is scheduled for two days after the Labor Day holiday, when many folks are distracted by back-to-work/back-to-school issues.
But even if folks do somehow find the time to participate, proposed changes and plans aren't available to residents until a few days before the meeting. Many conversations and meetings happen between the Planning Commission members and planning staff, the Planning Commission and BOCS, the BOCS members and planning staff, etc., and plans progress that residents and even other Planning Commission and BOCS members aren't privy to. By the time the public hearing happens, plans are often pretty much already solidified.
What's needed to improve the process for better citizen participation:
1. Advisory committees that are truly made up of citizens without direct financial interest in the subject at hand. This doesn't mean there can't be anyone with a "hint" of development interest, only that the committee shouldn't be controlled by any one faction.
2. As plans are discussed and marked-up by county staff, the Planning Commission, and the BOCS, they should be available on the county website to residents so they can follow along.
3. Allow time for residents to speak at the end of Planning Commission and BOCS work sessions. This way, residents can comment directly on what happened during the session.
4. Schedule work sessions/public hearings on important issues such as the Comprehensive Plan when it's convenient for folks to attend.
With these adjustments the process will be made much more accessible to residents, and the final product is always improved with more public participation. We don't have to keep repeating past mistakes!

What Should we Do?
The other day my son was watching old Monty Python sketches on Youtube from his computer. Those old routines still make us laugh. The Monty Python guys love making fun of the kind of authority figures who get all red-faced, barking commands, ordering people around.
Unfortunately today, it's easy to see John the Baptist as John Cleese, all red-faced, barking to people who came out innocently to hear a sermon from a person they take to be a prophet saying, in a British accent, "You brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the coming wrath?"
Disliking John, and Luke
That almost comic image of John the baptist is the easiest thing to dislike about this text, but there are more. John's recommendations to people – to share one cloak if they own two, to do the same kind of sharing with food and all – sound like a page right out of Karl Marx. It sounds like (can I say this word in church?) socialism, right? ""From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs" (the Marxist maxim).
So, our tendency this morning is to turn off this text because it sounds almost comically angry, or to turn it off because it sounds Communist, or both. But I believe this text is in our Bibles, in the Gospel of Luke because we need its message today more than ever, especially now, in this season of Advent.
So I am going to ask us all to do some work in the next few minutes; maybe hard work: to think – really think as we look at this text together, and to keep asking ourselves, "what does God want me to hear from this text today? What am I supposed to do?
What was the Greatest Gift?
Let us start our thinking with this question: what was the greatest gift God gave to the Jews? The land? The temple? The glory of King Solomon's reign? Many people of John's day would have answered: "the promise to Abraham." To be born in to the family of Abraham was to automatically inherit the blessing. God promised to bless Abraham, to make him great, to make a great nation come from him, and to bless them (Gen 12). Being of the family of Abraham, they would have said, is God's greatest gift!
John was out to name that opinion as a mistake: as crucially, fundamentally wrong. "You say you are children of Abraham – and you think that answers all the questions? – Not so fast! God, if he wanted to, could make children of Abraham from thes stones."
I've been to Palestine – down to the Jordan where John was – there are lots of stones. In fact almost nothing else but stones; it's a grassless, stony wasteland. No, being children of Abraham is not the greatest gift or final answer.
The Gift of Torah: a new vision
What then was God's greatest gift to the Jews? It was Torah; the scriptures. Why? Because in Torah, in the scriptures, God explains who he is and what he expects from his people – he "reveals" himself and his will. Without Torah, without the scriptures, the Israelites are just like the pagan, idol-worshipping nations all around them in the Ancient Near East – Egyptian, Canaanite, Philistine – whatever.
But Israel was not like them at all, because she possessed God's greatest gift: Torah, God's instruction. Moses who led them out of slavery in Egypt came down from Mt. Sinai with Torah in his hands, which gave them a concept that the world to that point had only glimpsed: they were to be the first nation on earth who worshipped and served a God who was Singular, and Moral. Moral monotheism was the revolutionary new idea that Torah taught.
Think of this! All the other nations around worshipped gods – gods of nature – the sun, the moon, the ocean, storm gods, fertility gods, the Olympic gods.
These gods did not care who you lied to, stole from, cheated or slept with, as long as you kept them happy with sacrifices and proper ritual veneration.
Moses' Torah was a massive sea change: an utterly radical departure; a whole new way of thinking about God and what God wanted from humans. Torah teaches that God is not many, like the pagans thought; rather God is one; the Sovereign of universe. He is the Source of all life, all being; everything comes from him including all of us. We are here because he made us. We are not accidents nor just a mound of worker ants or a hive of worker bees. We were created in God's image to live in his good physical world, to be blessed, to be fruitful, to wake up everyday marveling at life and at beauty and at God's greatness.
One more massively different and extremely important new idea that Torah teaches us is that God is not morally neutral like pagan gods and idols are: he is moral. His essence is goodness – and there is a difference between goodness and badness. Just like a wheat plant: some of it is good for grinding into flour and making bread, but the rest of it is worthless; only useful for fueling a cook-fire. Good is different from bad, and the difference matters to God. He has a winnowing fork and uses it.
Crucial Implications
Now here is the important implication of these truths that we learn from the gift of Torah: this One single God who is good has a moral will for us, his creatures. He cares what we do: who we you lie to, steal from, cheat or sleep with.
Have you ever been lied to? God cares about that. Have you ever been deceived? cheated? Cheated on? God is not OK with any of that. He cares, it matters to him precisely because he made us. He hates it when one of his children is damaged, disadvantaged, or suffers.
He cares when his children are hungry and don't have enough food, when they have no clean drinking water, when they have inadequate housing, when they get pushed around and abused by faceless systems – whether they be greedy corporations or abusive governments, or simply officials with titles and power who use them for their own advantage. He hates it when they get blown up in the Baghdad market place and when their homeowners insurance gets cancelled even though they have paid for years without making any claims.
And he also hates it when some of his people who are doing OK observe the suffering of their sisters and brothers and turn away from helping them. He hates it when the two-coat people ignore the no-coat people on cold nights. He hates it when the plenty-of-food-on-the-plate people turn away from the no-food-on-the-plate people as if they were not children of the same Parent.
What does God do?
So what does this morally good God do when he looks and sees all this stuff going on that he hates? If he saw it all and did nothing about it that would be as bad as the parent who watches the child lighting matches on the sofa and does nothing to stop her. He must act. Does he have options? Is it going to be another world-wide flood or another round of "fire and brimstone"? Well, he has tried that response, and it didn't help much.
God invokes a plan – maybe in Advent we should call it the "Advent Conspiracy" (unless that name is already taken). The plan starts with a messenger to "prepare the way," followed by a direct intervention. John comes as the messanger to prepare the way for God's direct intervention: God comes down to this planet of his making and makes himself one of the humans he has made; God's direct intervention is Christmas!
God himself comes down to be one of these people to save them from the mess we have been making. He comes to be with to be with us, to know first hand what life is like down here where some of us have two coats and supper waiting, while others have none, and to teach us, once again, about his Father – Our Father in Heaven; about God. That is exactly why Christmas is so crucially important for us. It is God's direct intervention into a world that maybe deserves another round of fire and brimstone.
God has no interest in more fire and brimstone; he has the plan to redeem these pathetic, small-minded, selfish little creatures, like me, and transform me in to a person who "gets it". I'm supposed to "get it" that God, my Creator, my Father is morally good and wants me to be good; to worship him as he truly is, and to take my place on this planet for the span of years that I will occupy understanding that all the people around me are relatives for whom I am morally responsible.
What should we do?
So what should we do? What we should do is to do exactly the same thing that every group of people who came out to the Jordan River to be baptized by John did. The crowds, the tax collectors and the soldiers all did the exact same thing: they all asked the question "what should we do?"
This is the question that shows that we "get it". "You mean God is watching? You mean that he cares? You mean that all of our actions towards each other, all our relationships, all our interactions with each other matter to him? Well then, what should we do?"
A person who is asking "what should we do" is only working out the details. The details always differ. What should we do? It depends on who you are and what you have been doing. If you are a tax collector and you have been extorting, you need to stop it! God cares.
If you are a two-coat person then look around – you know what you need to do. If you have been a food-on-the-plate person, look around; you know what to do. The main thing is to keep looking around and to keep asking the question: "today, what am I to do?" It's not rocket-science; it's not even algebra II; what should we do? We should be good! Not trivially good, but globally good, humanely good, ethically good because we know and worship God who is good! Let this be our Advent conspiracy!

"Iran's negotiating tactics alienating key partner"
January 21-26, 2010
With Iran having officially rejected key elements of the proposed uranium export deal, some analysts see a weakening of Iran-Russia ties. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov called for a sober P5+1 response but expressed "regret" over Iran's decision, and Russian officials are reportedly "exasperated" with Iran's tactics and are open to the option of additional sanctions (Reuters). US Ambassador to Russia John Beyrle claims that Washington and Moscow are closer than ever in their positions on the Iranian nuclear issue (Xinhua), and on Monday, Iran's chief nuclear negotiator Saeed Jalili postponed a 3-day trip to Russia to see President Dmitry Medvedev and Prime Minister Vladimir Putin (AFP).
Vladimir Yevseyev believes prospects are dim for Iran-Russia relations, which began cooling after the contested June election and the subsequent revelation of the secret Qom (Fordow) facility. Yevseyev writes that despite Moscow's desire to increase bilateral military technical cooperation, Tehran has undermined the crucial uranium export deal and indicated its mistrust of Moscow by insisting that its LEU be exported to Turkey (Eurasia Review).

My friend Neil's daughter, Maya, was born on September 11, 2001. I am thinking of that child now as she is about to turn 15. In a sense, our memory of that day, like Maya, is transitioning from childhood to adulthood.
It didn't take very long on that day for everyone to understand that America was under attack. What was not known was how broad the attacks would be and how many targets there were. The tallest buildings in Toronto were evacuated as a precaution and, obviously, work felt meaningless. People started wondering whether the Jewish day schools might be targets too and some parents headed to the schools to pick up their children.
Around lunch time my daughter, Naomi, then 11, called to say that most of the kids had been picked up by their parents because there was a rumour of a bomb in the school. Rather than trying to persuade her otherwise, I went to pick up Naomi and her two sisters, Orli, then 7, and Yael, who was 5. It was a beautiful fall day, sunny and crisp, and with all three kids now safely in the car I made the executive decision to take them for an ice cream on Eglinton.
As we walked into Baskin Robbins, I turned to them with teeth gritted, waving my finger and said "We are not going to let the terrorists change our lives. We are having ice cream." I now go for an ice cream every September 11 to remember that horrible day. My kids do too.
September 11, 2001, and the weeks that followed were hard for everyone. Life had changed, but by how much nobody then knew. We were all sad. Even though we might not have personally known any of the victims, we all knew that each one could have been us. It was evident that life could change, or even be extinguished, in an instant. That was a frightening thought.
A few weeks after September 11, I saw an advertisement in The Ontario Reports, a weekly publication of court decisions. The ad simply said:
Any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in Mankind;
And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; It tolls for thee.
I have kept that ad on my desk at work ever since.
The quote is from 17th century poet and cleric John Donne, and speaks to the fact that we are all connected and intertwined, what impacts one person should impact all of us. The first line of this passage is No man is an island.
Two years ago with Andrea Cohen I co-chaired Toronto's 2015 UJA Campaign. In this position we lived the interconnectedness of the Jewish people every day. We saw how in our city those who can give do, in order for those who need to receive. We saw how tzedakah helps each of our fellow Jews realize his or her potential and, in so doing, we enable all Jews to realize our potential as a people. We saw how important it is to speak out against injustice and prejudice, and advocate on behalf of Israel, each and every day. Our strong Toronto Jewish community helps Israel be strong, which is something we all need. All Jews are connected: we share a common past, and we have a common future.
Spending so much time learning and talking about our Jewish community and Israel caused me to think about the ice cream I had on September 11, 2001 in a slightly different way.
I initially thought, and I said at the time, that it was an ice cream of defiance: We won't change what we do because someone wants us to.
I now think it was an ice cream of reassurance, reflecting my hope that everything will be OK. By having an ice cream I was telling my kids, and myself, that things will get back to normal. I wasn't certain of that at the time, but going for an ice cream was the most normal thing I could think of to do.
Similarly, when you support our community and stand for Israel, you say to our fellow Jews that they are not alone. Your actions demonstrate that, when they are in crisis, we will help matters get back to normal. Imagine how good that must feel.
Like an ice cream on September 11.

Let me be clear: I am willing to jump through whatever hoops are required. What annoys me is that the nature of the hoops cannot be described all at once. Months ago we heard that we had to come up with a set of disciplinary learning goals. Only gradually did I learn that we would have to prove we were trying to teach our learning goals by producing assignments and syllabi that pointed in their direction. And only a few weeks ago did I finally gather that we will have to create a set of rules for measuring whether and to what extent the learning is successful, as well as a method of assessing our method of assessment. Had I understood the assignment from the beginning, I would have had to spend much less time accessing my inner apparatchik.
And one more word. Nothing is going to make me see this as anything more than jumping through hoops. Lovely people have offered winged words about how the endeavor might benefit us, giving us more awareness of who we are, of our mission, of the nature and purpose of the liberal arts. Friends write to invite me to accountability workshops, as if such a thing could be anything other than three hours in hell. I will do it because I'm a soldier. But telling me it's a valuable exercise won't excite my sympathy, let alone my admiration.

We've talked before about the dangers of people using 3D printers to make guns, and the problems that could cause for society. But 3D aren't only used for evil. A German maker has used a 3D printer to build a complex gun, but this is more fun than it is deadly. Rather than fire bullets, this gun instead fires paper planes.
Built by a 3D printer and standard hardware tools, the so-called 'Papierfliegerei' is not just a simple gun. Instead, it combines a complex origami-like folding mechanism into the system, enabled a user simply to insert flat sheets of paper, and watch as paper aeroplanes come flying out.
