IRVINE, Calif.–Toyota Material Handling USA Inc. (TMHU) announced that it will contribute to the planting of 57,000 trees by the end of this year through its partnership with the Arbor Day Foundation.
The trees will be planted in national forests and local parks damaged by fire or other natural causes. The company has committed to donating one tree for every Toyota lift truck sold in 2008 and one tree for every Toyota 8-Series lift truck sold in 2007. TMHU is also holding planting events with its dealers and associates.
"Putting an emphasis on the environment always has been an integral part of our corporate philosophy, and planting trees with the help of our customers, dealers and associates is a rewarding way to make a positive impact on our future," says Brett Wood, president of TMHU. "Through our products, manufacturing processes and community involvement, we have strived to push forward a global environmental charter. Toyota will continue to push the boundaries of developing innovative technologies and products that are not only socially responsible but also economically viable."
In 2005, Toyota Industries Corp. created an Environmental Action Plan, which has resulted in some 1,700 energy-saving measures. The company's sustainability initiatives are also supported by efforts such as its hybrid concept lift truck, which made its debut at ProMat this year.

Tim Godfrey, one of Nigeria's most popular gospel artistes, has recounted how he was able to feature the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye, in his new song.
Godfrey made this known during a listening event for his new body of work.
He said, "When Daddy GO travels, it is countries that host him. How did God show us so much favour? If God asks you to take a step, please jump; so long as you heard from God. It was difficult but it was worth the 'battle' to get through to him. He is such an amazing father.
"I called my friend, Pastor Ayo, who is a member of RCCG. He was actually the (my) link to GO (Adeboye). He had even told me he was not sure it was going to work again.
"The final attempt I made was about two months ago. He told me to stay on the phone and he started calling different people. He called Pastor Leke (Adeboye's son) and he said it was a good idea. Right then, I was given approval. The devil is tired of me when it comes to failure. He knows I never give up."

WASHINGTON — Retired Gen. Doug Carver, who oversees chaplaincy ministry for Southern Baptists, shared concerns about "growing ignorance, insensitivity or intolerance regarding matters of religion" within the United States military at a House subcommittee hearing Wednesday, Jan. 29.
The hearing regarding religious accommodation in the U.S. military drew record crowds, including Southern Baptist congressmen. Current military leaders testifying at the hearing held that no substantiated instances of religious discrimination have taken place recently in the military, and that military chaplains of all faiths are free from any undue influence in the matters of faith practices or conscience.
But even if substantial instances have not occurred, Carver pointed toward a climate that is creating a more restrictive faith environment.
"I am concerned about the perceived tension, misinformation and suspicion regarding an individual's free exercise of religion and conscience while serving as a member of the Armed Services," Carver stated in testimony he submitted. Carver, Major General, U.S. Army, Retired, is executive director for chaplaincy at the North American Mission Board. A winter storm in Atlanta prevented Carver from attending, but his written testimony was entered into the record.
Other witnesses attending the Religious Accommodation in the Armed Services hearing included Virginia Penrod, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Military Personnel Policy; Brigadier General Bobby Page, Deputy Chief of Chaplains, U.S. Air Force; Brigadier General Charles R. Bailey, Deputy Chief of Chaplains, U.S. Army and Rear Admiral Upper Half Mark L. Tidd, Chief of Navy Chaplains, U.S. Navy.
During her testimony, Penrod indicated a recent teleconference with approximately 30 line chaplains revealed no religious freedom threats. She said command chaplains have not expressed any concerns.
"They have communication with their chaplains and their chaplains are not concerned regarding the free exercise or expression of their faiths." Penrod added that the small sampling of chaplains on her call believe if they do encounter issues that those would be handled appropriately.
Carver acknowledged the military's history of religious freedom protection.
"It was my personal experience of 38 years as a commissioned Army officer that the military placed the highest value on ensuring the religious liberty of our troops … The Department of Defense has historically, although sometimes too lengthy and cautiously, taken extraordinary measures to approve religious accommodation … Our troops, and most Americans, understand the tension that exists between the religious needs of a service member versus military necessity," Carver said.
A number of House members addressed the hearing as well, including Southern Baptists Vern Buchanan (R, GA), Doug Collins (R, GA), Alan Nunnelee (R, MS), and Austin Scott (R, GA). Nunnelee expressed his concern for some of the reported activity taking place at military briefings held by the Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute. He contended that anti-Christian statements were made during some of those briefings. Penrod said she had no reports of such statements and would have to investigate to give a proper answer for the record. House Armed Services Committee Chairman Buck McKeon (R, CA) also attended the hearing.
The consensus of most House members' sentiments was summed up in comments from Congressman Brad Wenstrup (R, OH), a combat surgeon veteran of the Iraq War, and member of the House Armed Services Committee. "There is a fine line between accommodation and respecting all religions and restricting religious freedom and that's the line we are walking on here. I want to caution you," said Wenstrup.
Response to the hearing prompted subcommittee chairman Joe Wilson (R, S.C.) to call for an additional hearing on the matter within the next 60 days.
Matthew Hawkins, Coalition Director for the Southern Baptist Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission, attended the hearing. He helps foster collaboration with like-minded groups on issues of law and public policy.
"I thought the hearing went fairly well, considering the complex issue and limited time," said Hawkins. "I believe the subcommittee sees a need for further hearings. We do not want the federal government imposing decisions of faith on anyone, and definitely not upon members of the military. There is much agreement that using a position of authority, such as a commanding officer's, to attempt to push someone into a faith decision is equally unacceptable."
Hawkins said he's interested to see where the conversation goes and whether "inappropriate proselytizing" will ever be sufficiently defined, stating that the display of a religious text on an officer's desk should certainly not be defined as inappropriate.

Our Identity in God
A small bird lands on a branch of a bush without disturbing the branch. A small bird weighs almost nothing. That's how light a burden our possessions, our work, our friends, our loved ones should feel to us. Everything that we "own" are gifts for the journey through our life here on earth. We have to give it all up as we die. We can't take one thing or one person with us through the passage we call death. So why do we cling so hard to what we feel belongs to us?
It's a matter of identity and of fear. What we identify with is what we cling to. If we are defined by our houses and cars and the brand names on our clothes, if we identify our self worth with a certain income or status or the things we can buy or vacations we can take, we are very much identified by the values of the culture and must cling to these things almost desperately because we don't know who we are without them.
If, on the other hand, our identity lies in God, in the ultimate reality, we see everything in our lives as a gift from God, even our life itself. We hold them lightly knowing that in earthly terms everything is always changing. We can be rich one day and poor the next. Or vice versa. A hurricane, a tsunami, an earthquake or fire can wipe us out in an instant. Or a war can change the political climate.
With a life and identity vested in God we can weather suffering and change because we know that we are loved, connected, forgiven and welcomed always. We may miss what is lost, but we rest in the arms of God who loves us. We have our identity in the Eternal, not in the transitory, always changing world. We may feel fear at times, but it does not control us.
Taking what we "own" and "have" lightly means that we are less attached to the material world. Working and living in it still we value our attachment to God and to our true selves more than the culture we live in. We are free! We are loved! We are forgiven!

Hey All!
Last week we had the amazing opportunity to attend the press junket for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker! It was bittersweet as it would be the last time we touch on the Skywalker saga that began decades ago. In attendance at the junket was J.J. Abrams … Writer / Director, Chris Terrio … Writer, Daisy Ridley … "Rey", Oscar Isaac … "Poe Dameron", John Boyega … "Finn", Adam Driver … "Kylo Ren", Keri Russell … "Zorii Bliss", Kelly Marie Tran … "Rose Tico", Naomi Ackie … "Jannah", Joonas Suotamo … "Chewbacca", Anthony Daniels … "C-3PO", Richard E. Grant … "Allegiant General Pryde", and the one and only Billy Dee Williams … "Lando Calrissian"! I was thrilled to get the opportunity to even be in the same room as Billy Dee!
The press conference is moderated by Ava Duvernay. She took the stage and kicked off the panel with some great questions. Here is a little of what we learned during this once in a lifetime event.
JJ shared what the differences in making each movie he directed and worked on.
The difference is that the pressure's shifted. First day of Rise of Skywalker, we knew those things were working. What we didn't know was everything else. The responsibility was significant. The scale of the movie, this picture is enormous, we knew none of that would matter if you didn't care about the people.
Naomi Ackie spoke about how she prepared for her role as the new character Jannah.
I felt like Jannah's strength was in her body. She's a very grounded character. Working with JJ and figuring out what the balance was between strength of a character but also a vulnerability of the character. I feel like we found it by the end. We watched it yesterday, I'm not being funny… I left it like my heart was beating so heart. It's the most visually beautiful thing I've ever seen.
Kelly Marie Tran shared what is was like getting back together with everyone to shoot the film.
It was really wonderful. I think from the last film there seems to be such a bond between everyone and then also the new guys…It truly feels like everyone's a family.
JJ shared a little about Carrie Fisher. It also got very weird as a light when out right as he was talking about the lights and Carrie. He made a comment as if her spirit was saying hi.
Carrie was such a big part of Star Wars and for me, personally, there was a sense of wanting to honor that. I think she's pretty incredible in this movie. It felt as if she was with us with all the footage we had of her.
Joonas Suotamo touched on taking over Chewbacca.
When Peter passed, I was heartbroken. I tried to do him justice in this film.,I'm really proud, with this incredible cast, that we're a part of something so much bigger than ourselves.
Anthony Daniels shared that he finally understands what Star Wars means to people.
I've only just realized what it means because I've been in all of the movies, I am so close to it, it's like having your nose up against the planet. You can't see how big the planet is. It's meant something completely different to me. It's a job. It's kind of fun. It's kind of awkward sometimes. Now I'm getting to see it from a different perspective.
Abrams shared what this movie means to him and what does he want to say with it.
The thing that mattered to me most…is the people who are sitting here and what you're watching and the eyes of the characters and the heart of the characters. For me, rather than give away themes…I would say that it really is about hope and it's about coming back to a sense of possibility and unity…If Star Wars can't do that for us, I don't know what can.
And last but not least, Billy Dee Williams shared what it was like to bring back Lando to the big screen.
This has been s great pleasure for me, doing Lando. I didn't think it would happen. But when I got the call from JJ and then when we met, I just chuckled because it was a wonderful gift.
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is in theatres now!

TOKYO (AP) — Troubled Japan Airlines Corp. and the state-backed corporate turnaround body responsible for the money-losing airline's restructuring will decline cash offers from Delta and American Airlines, a report said Sunday.
Instead, they will only seek a greater business cooperation with either Delta Air Lines Inc. or American Airlines, the business daily Nikkei said, citing no sources. The turnaround body will pick one of the U.S. carriers as JAL's partner after February, it said.
Delta — the world's biggest airline operator — and its rival American are vying for a stake in Japan Airlines, known as JAL, as they seek to expand their Asian networks.
Delta and its SkyTeam partners have offered $1 billion to JAL, while American, which partners with JAL in the oneworld alliance, has countered with a $1.4 billion.
But the state-backed Enterprise Turnaround Initiative Corp. of Japan fears that giving foreign carriers a stake in the struggling airline could only complicate its restructuring efforts, the Nikkei said.
JAL could file for bankruptcy as early as Jan. 19, Nikkei said Saturday. After the filing, JAL President Haruka Nishimatsu plans to resign.
The Nikkei said Sunday the government and the turnaround body have asked Kazuo Inamori, founder of electronic component maker Kyocera Corp., to head JAL during the restructuring process. Inamori is to reply to the government by the end of the week.
Officials at JAL, the transport ministry and the turnaround body could not be reached for comment Sunday.
Amid bankruptcy fears, shares in JAL continued to tumble, with their closing price falling nearly 12 percent Friday to 67 yen. Friday's finish marked a staggering fall from JAL's closing price of 213 yen at the beginning of 2009.
Japan's financial markets will be closed Monday for a public holiday.

In a Toronto Star article assessing the future of Canada's food supply chain ravaged by COVID-19, worker shortages, and shipping logistics, Arrell Food Institute director Dr. Evan Fraser provided his thoughts on what should happen next.
In the article, Fraser said the assumptions that Canada's food system will see trade expand and improve "aren't nearly as rock solid as they were a decade ago," and that the challenges to the food system won't end with the pandemic.
More investment in Canada's agriculture and food-packing sectors is necessary to prevent a larger labour crisis, Fraser also said.
Along with being a professor in the Department of Geography, Environment & Geomatics, Fraser is the Canada Research Chair in Global Food Security. He studies food security, food prices, rural agricultural policy and how each is affected by climate change.

- Mayors on the Move. C40 Cities (C40), a network of the world's "greatest", and presumably largest, cities is actively working to identify and implement sustainable solutions for urban areas to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement. McKinsey & Company, citing the United Nations and C40, reminds us that by 2050 68% of the world's population will reside in urban areas and, because 90% of urban areas are coastal cities, they are particularly vulnerable to the environmental risks associated with climate change such as flooding, rising sea levels, and other climate related threats. In their C40 Cities Leading The Way report, they highlight seven cities and their programs including Barcelona (climate justice, citizen action), Copenhagen (carbon neutral by 2025), London (zero carbon public transport, clean air), New York (accelerating action), Oslo (implementing climate budgets), Paris (carbon neutral by 2050), and Stockholm (fossil fuel free by 2040).

- Oh, Morgan. In the super-local department, a commercial real estate developer in Boulder, CO, Morgan Creek Ventures, was not satisfied with just having rooftop solar panels on their Boulder Commons Phase Two project, so they partnered with Pivot Energy, Coburn Architecture, and others to create a vertical array of solar panels to capture additional solar energy. Morgan Creek states that over the next two decades the project will save the equivalent of 4,384 tons of CO2 which they estimate to be the same as taking 953 autos off the road.

Nestle announced that it is investing $1.29 billion in regenerative agriculture, working with its 500,000 farmers and 150,000 suppliers to reduce its carbon emission in by 50% by 2030 and be net zero by 2050. About two-thirds of Nestlé's total emissions come from agriculture based activities. (Source: https://www.fooddive.com/news/nestle-investing-129b-to-support-regenerative-agriculture/606742/ )

The Trials of Apollo book 5, The Tower of Nero, doesn't release until later in 2020, but we'll be keeping track of the exact release date and more in one convenient spot.
The Tyrant's Tomb by Rick Riordan has come and gone, which means fans are already looking forward to the final installment in the Trials of Apollo series.
Book 3 in the series, The Burning Maze, was a big one for the Percy Jackson fandom.
I knew The Tyrant's Tomb was going to be hard to get through, but I don't think I expected to have as many tears as I did. Read my Tyrant's Tomb review, and let me know how you felt about the fourth book.
But if you're here because you want to know everything you can about the next book in the series. Well, you're in luck!
Trials of Apollo book 5 is titled 'The Tower of Nero'
Now that The Tyrant's Tomb has been released, we know for sure that The Trials of Apollo book 5 title will be The Tower of Nero. This gives us plenty of clues as to what's coming next (more on that later!), and certainly adds an ominous feel to the book. Nero has been the Big Bad since The Trials of Apollo started, so it makes sense that this is where we're ending.
All in all, the Trials of Apollo series books have been named The Hidden Oracle, The Dark Prophecy, The Burning Maze, The Tyrant's Tomb, and The Tower of Nero. Not a bad lineup!
Trials of Apollo book 5 release date
Thanks to our exclusive Tower of Nero cover reveal, we know the exact date we can finally get our hands on the book!
Previous release dates have been May 3, 2016; May 2, 2017; May 1, 2018; and September 24, 2019. That jump to September was a difficult one for book 4, since we had to wait over a year to read it. Luckily, we're back on schedule for book 5.
The Tower of Nero release date is September 29, 2020.
Trials of Apollo book 5 plot details
Our exclusive cover reveal also came with the official synopsis, plus the first two chapters of the book!
Read the Tower of Nero synopsis below:
At last, the breathtaking, action-packed finale of the #1 bestselling Trials of Apollo series is here! Will the Greek god Apollo, cast down to earth in the pathetic mortal form of a teenager named Lester Papadopoulos, finally regain his place on Mount Olympus?
Lester's demigod friends at Camp Jupiter just helped him survive attacks from bloodthirsty ghouls, an evil Roman king and his army of the undead, and the lethal emperors Caligula and Commodus. Now the former god and his demigod master Meg must follow a prophecy uncovered by Ella the harpy.
Lester's final challenge will be at the Tower of Nero, back in New York. Will Meg have a last showdown with her father? Will this helpless form of Apollo have to face his arch nemesis, Python? Who will be on hand at Camp Half-Blood to assist? These questions and more will be answered in this book that all demigods are eagerly awaiting.
Based on this synopsis, let's talk about what could happen in Tower of Nero.
We know the next step of the journey will, obviously, take us to the Tower of Nero. This is back in New York, so don't be surprised if some of our favorite demigods (particularly Percy and Annabeth) show up again. The story is very much centered on Apollo, Meg, and Nero, but it wouldn't be like Percy to sit out on a good fight.
Hopefully seeing Percy and Annabeth again will be just as thrilling as the last few times we got a peek into their lives following both the Olympians and Heroes series. We also know thanks to our exciting interview with author Rick Riordan that Nico di Angelo and Will Solace play a large supporting role in this book.
Perhaps this will also be prime territory for another small crossover. (Magnus? Sadie and Carter? Anything is possible!)
Apollo has come leaps and bounds since The Hidden Oracle. He's less selfish and narcissistic, and he's really started to embrace his humanity. As a result, he's slowly getting back his powers, which only means one thing — it's time to jive! Hopefully, we'll see Apollo return to form sooner rather than later. I, for one, can't wait to see how he applies the lessons he's learned once his godhood is restored.
Meg has a tough road ahead of her as well. She was emotionally abused by Nero when he acted as her guardian, and seeing him again will be far from easy. We already saw what kind of hold he has over her, so she's going to be in for a fight to keep her head about her. Nero is a smart and ruthless villain, and he's going to have both plenty of cunning and manpower to take down his enemies.
I'm hoping to see some old faces coupled with some interesting mythological creatures. I also hope we get to have a chat with some of the Greek gods when Apollo finally returns to Mount Olympus. Percy made a lot of progress by the end of the Olympians series, but the fact that Apollo has lived the life of a demigod firsthand is bound to have a ripple effect.
More than anything, I hope we get a teaser of what's to come. Whether that's more in the Percy Jackson world or something that shows just how much is out there, I'd love to see this world continuously expand. We know Magnus Chase (Norse) and the Kanes (Egyptian) exist in this same universe, but who else does?
I desperately want to know.
Beyond 'The Tower of Nero'
The Tower of Nero is the final book in the Trials of Apollo series and the last book in the Camp Half-Blood Chronicles — for now.
When we spoke to Riordan, we made sure to ask him what he's working on next.
"When I am done with Tower of Nero, I will have no outstanding publishing contracts for the first time in roughly 20 years," Riordan tells us.
Luckily, this doesn't mean he'll stop writing anytime soon!
"My thinking right now is I may explore individual characters' stories in one-off novels. I recognize that with 15 books now in Percy's world, the idea of diving in can be daunting for new readers," the author says.
"I like the idea of writing stand-alones that, well, stand alone, so readers who have never even read The Lightning Thief can still enjoy the story. Those novels could focus on any of our demigods, but right now this is just in the brainstorming phase. I haven't signed any contracts or started any outlines."
Since standalone novels aren't in our immediate future, what is?
"In the immediate future, I have two goals: To continue curating the Rick Riordan Presents imprint, which has succeeded beyond our wildest expectations," Riordan says, "and to engage with the film industry after many years of self-imposed exile, to try (operative word) to get some faithful adaptations off the ground."
We want to hear your thoughts on this topic!

The Negev hills site of the southern ancient Nabataean city of Avdat, which was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2005, was found vandalized Monday.
Hundreds of archeological artifacts were found smashed, walls smeared with yellow and brown paint, and oil paint was smeared on the ancient wine press. Items hundreds and thousands of years old were severely damaged.
Dimona Police arrested two Bedouins, aged 41 and 57, for their alleged involvement in the act. The police said Tuesday morning that one of the men arrested was the site's guard.
In addition to the vandalizing of the National Park, "Sfat Midbar" farm near Mitzpe Ramon was also damaged. Dimona Police forces launched an investigation, saying they will look into all possible leads, including the recent destruction of 23 Bedouin structures nearby, and will examine a possible connection between the two incidents.

"Tonight, a World Heritage Site received a grave blow. The Authority, which is charged with protecting this historic asset, will act immediately to restore the site to its previous condition as is required by international standards," Chairman of the Israeli Nature and National Parks Protection Authority Eli Amitay told Ynet.
'Grave blow'
Raviv Shapira, director of the southern district of the Israel Nature and Parks Authority told Ynet that the sight of the destruction was awful: "We came in the morning and found the place in shambles," described Shapira, "They broke the staircase, destroyed the walls, and painted on them. The worst is that the two most ancient churches in Israel were destroyed, and 13-foot columns were shattered with hammers along with artifacts and the authentic marble alter, which is the most important (artefact) in the city."

The Nabataeans founded Avdat around the 3rd century BC, along the "Perfume Road" which stretched between the Jordanian city of Petra and Gaza. The place was named after the Nabataean king, Avdat, who was also buried at the site. According to Shapira, Avdat was the most important historic city on the "Perfume Road" after Petra between the 1st century BC and the 7th century AD, and was inhabited by Nabataeans, Romans and Byzantines.
Additional damage was discovered by the Nature and Parks Authority staff, including damage to orchards, water pipes and visitors' vehicles. The Nature and Parks Authority is set to increase the number of supervisors patrolling its sites during the intermediary days of the Sukkot holiday, and will also deploy aircraft which will allow aerial supervision of visitors' activities.
Daniel Bar-Eli, secretary-general of the Israeli committee to UNESCO, called the act "a crime against humanity's culture."
Thousands of visitors come to the site during the intermediary days of the Fall holiday, however this year they will not be able to enjoy the beauty and antiquities of the place.
Israel Nature and Parks Authority has reopened the World Heritage Site, Avdat, for visitors.

I played this last year for the first time with the Aussies....... BEST game ever, and we play it here. Pretty much you MUST drink your drink out of your left hand, if not, you call out a player and yell BUFFALO, and they must finish that drink right away, all of it, and they smash the empty cup on the person who called them out! Ohhhhhh if you arent paying attention in the pool or just hanging around, you can easily have to drink a lot of drinks, its just a fun thing we did all week while in cancun, and was funny! You could catch a guy at the club, on the dance floor, in the pool, at the bar, doesnt matter, but its a damn fun game!! Here are the rules. http://www.nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/Buffalo-(drinking-game)
hahahah that game was awesomeeee!!!! i never played it while in cancun, but did when i was in england lol
Buffalo is the greatest and Cruelst drinking game ever created...also the simplest...We will definitly revive it in '09 in your honor Buffalo boy. :lol:
Isn't it boring to be left handed in this game? :wink: I mean the fun of the game is to drink not only let drink

Dare: Book One
For successful businessman Bran Wilson, selling the large Montana dairy farm that has been in his family for generations is an easy decision. He hates the farm, the land, even the cows, and wants nothing to do with any of it. But there's a glitch in his plan: a stubborn cowboy from New Zealand who is as sexy as he is aggravating.
Kaden Barker loves the Wilson farm, and respected Bran's grandfather up until the day he died. With his two best friends, he's taken over working the farm and caring for the cows, and he'd happily spend the rest of his days doing it.
When Bran charges into his life, telling him he's selling the farm and there's nothing Kaden, or his friends, can do about it, the animosity between them is instant. But so is the attraction, and only one extreme can win out.
Title: Dare to Hope by Kara Nash & Caitlin Ricci

Publisher: Dreamspinner Press
Genre: Contemporary, M/M, Romance
Length: 250 pages/Word Count: 93,125
Dare: Book Two
Christophori Romanoff is an expert at being the perfect son for his homophobic father. But maintaining the facade comes with a heavy price, and when he swears off anonymous sex and getting drunk every night, he needs his friends more than ever. Only he's convinced they're busy with their own lives and better off without his interference. On the surface Chris is fine, but underneath the expensive suit and the law degree he got only to please his father, he's breaking apart from the pressure, and he falls back on his oldest—and most dangerous—coping mechanism.
Samuel Mealamu hoped to hear from Chris soon after their last good-bye in Montana, but as the months go by without a word, he realizes what they started was one-sided. Still, he worries about the destructive path Chris was on and hopes the silence means he's doing better. But nearly a year later, Chris finally calls, and it's obvious he's in trouble. Samuel thinks he's seen Chris at his worst, but this new, far more broken man might be too much for even Samuel to help.

I am sending my deepest sympathy to Dales family and friends. Dale and I date back to 1968, remembering just sitting on the front lawn, just sitting because Dale never talked a lot. It makes me sad to know that he died. Remembering the time he stopped the spraying in our area because it was harming the little birds that lived in the bushes. The time he spent in the hospital after his accident, so young. I think of the many times our paths crossed throughout the years.

Haringey Labour News from your Haringey Labour Team
Haringey is the first local authority in the country to declare its support for Black Pound Day (Saturday 27 June) and throughout the day we highlighted a range of the borough's Black-owned businesses and sharing their stories on our social media channels using the hashtags #BlackPoundDay and #IAmHaringey.
This year Haringey also launched its Business Pledge, aiming to create a safe environment for local businesses and their customers, recognising the unique character of our diverse high streets.
Last year, Haringey agreed a Community Wealth Building approach, aiming to create an economy rooted in the community, with local business at its heart.
Meanwhile, the Haringey Fairness Commission, which launched in 2018, received input from thousands of residents about the inequalities that exist in the borough and how they can be addressed.
Cllr Joseph Ejiofor, Leader of Haringey Council, said: "Black Pound Day is a positive initiative that we are getting behind in Haringey. Our view of the Black Lives Matter movement is not just about keeping Black people alive, but it is also about improving the lives that Black people live. We are very much aware of the many barriers and difficulties that Black entrepreneurs face in starting up businesses and keeping them profitable.
"I'm proud that Haringey is the first local authority to give its official backing to Black Pound Day, as one of London and the country's most diverse areas, it's even more important that we show leadership on issues that directly affect so many in our community. Black Pound Day should be more of a movement, than just a moment.
"Haringey is home to many excellent Black-owned businesses that serve the local community well. It's right that we give them our support and help them to thrive."

The Magellan Times was founded just a few months before the outbreak of the Great War, which began in August 1914. Progressively, the war reporting was supplemented by commentary, extolling Allied virtues and "successes" while denigrating the enemy. As the war became more costly and intractable, the criticism turned to vilification. This was little surprise, given the ultra-British attitudes of its editor, and its target readership in the predominantly British-owned and/or -managed sheep ranches. Throughout the war years, the German version of events was reported in "Chile Austral", a Spanish-language paper also published in Punta Arenas. As might be expected, the two differ starkly in their reports. No doubt, the pro-British newspaper (published in English) was seen as an essential information and propaganda counterpoise in the struggle for Patagonian minds.
As part of the British "patriotic" effort, public subscriptions were started and publicized through the pages of the Magellan Times. Funds were raised directly in Punta Arenas, while ranch operators in the outlying regions were exhorted to raise contributions among their employees. The following funds were targetted directly at the British expatriate community.
Aeroplane Fund |
to purchase an aeroplane
for the war; however, the first 700 pounds or so was diverted urgently
to rescue the Shackleton Antarctic expedition |
British Sailor's Tobacco
Fund |
to provide smoking materials
for enlisted sailors |
Children's Fund |
"to succour the destitute
orphans and children of Serbia" |
Patriotic Fund |
to assist men wishing to
enlist in the armed forces [the second fund] |
Patriotic League of Britons
Overseas |
to purchase a warship |
War Relief Fund |
successor to Widows &
Orphans Fund? |
Widows & Orphans Fund |
to provide humanitarian assistance
to war victims [the first fund] |
Fortunately for the family historian, the newspaper printed complete lists of subscribers to each of these funds, often specifying the place where they donated (in Chile and in Argentina) -- a sort of census, in fact. It is clear, both from the number of people contributing and from the amounts donated, that they came from all economic levels. We may also suspect that the participation rate was high. Whereas only the "boss class" normally got mentioned in the news columns, this was a rare instance when the "workers" received equal treatment. Not all donors were British -- there are some hispanic names (presumably host-nation nationals), while others are continental European. Additional lists were published of those men who volunteered for war service: the majority of these had their passages to Britain paid by the Patriotic Fund.
Volunteers who left to join H.M. forces |
Donations to the special wartime Funds |
For an example of the use of emotionally-charge rhetoric, intended to shame
British expatriates into enlisting for military service, see William Dickie's
newspaper piece "To the Shirkers in Patagonia".
War Poetry:
In 1940, G P Brown, a British national living in Punta Arenas, published several
poems evoking the horror of World War I, and the pain of its aftermath:
see "Brown Studies".
In a 1917 recruiting speech in
Sydney, Australia, Ernest Shackleton quotes Punta Arenas approvingly,
as an expatriate community that has done its share for its country.

Hey guys,
It's finally time to write a New Year's Eve post to sum up 2021 and share our plans for 2022!
But first, I'd like to wish everyone a Happy New Year! I wish you all success in your endeavors, especially in creative ones! May your creativity become your passion in the new year and burst out in a fiery stream of mesmerizing, sincere, admiring and skin-penetrating stories! And let these stories come out in the most different forms and get produced! And shall these new stories and opportunities open you the way to further searches and new discoveries!
As for us, 2021 was a very busy year:
- We've designed and a huge number of layouts with functionality for the desktop version, some of which have already been implemented and another part is waiting for you in the upcoming year!
- We've actively designed the mobile version! We've designed the base functionality of the app's Android-version and began to work on the layout of the iOS. Spoiler - mobile version of Story Architect will have all the features of the desktop one and will be distributed under the same terms as its big brother.
- We have released 7 builds of the closed beta (in parallel with 6 KIT releases)! We're now as close as possible to the moment when the app can be publicly published, although still marked as a beta version. The application already has sufficient functionality to work on the text of the script and provides everything you need to work at least on the text of the first draft.
- Responded to a total of 2,925 requests from users.
- Have spent our first investment of $15.000 on hosting, domains, various services and on paying the guys from our team.
- Earned zero revenue yet... But we know that you are keeping fingers crossed for us :)
- There were a lot of meetings and calls this year. Some has brought various business proposals, others just shared their impressions and left feedback. We made friends with the authors of several competing products. We received strong support from the community and friends (for which I want to say a huge thank you)!
So, the year was not only full of business, but also of communication, which really encouraged us to set ambitious goals for the next year and to continue moving at an even greater pace! Over the next year we plan to:
Q1: fully complete the word processing functionality (simple text documents, title pages, synopses, poems and scripts), implement modules for working on audio plays and just plays, and add the ability to work on one project on multiple monitors.
Q2: implement the ability to work on projects with co-authors in real time (necessarily considering all our previous and in some places very painful experience in this area), and add story planning tools - bits, timeline, and a board with cards.
Q3: expand development capabilities (mental maps, image galleries, links, audio files, other documents) + start developing a mobile version.
Q4: starting work on production tools, which will be included in the showrunner module.
This is the way it is, guys.
Please wish us luck and we're off to another great start
Happy New Year!

During 2020, the possibility of welcoming extended family and friends to your home for a good old knees-up has been a distant one since March. So, unless you were lucky enough to capitalise before then, it is very likely you haven't welcomed anyone through your doors for the last 8 months!
But as we work towards a future that is as close to the normal we had, it may be useful to plan ahead and make your kitchen perfect for that first get together when it is safe to do so- as it will be a long time coming. At Kitchen Warehouse we like to think we look at things through a certain pair of rose-tinted spectacles, so here are some ways you can turn your kitchen into a perfect social space.
Set the mood with some unique lighting
By making your kitchen an entertainment space that can house visitors, you are inevitably opening up your kitchen to more eyes than just that of your household. Whether it be for better or for worse, people are going to judge your kitchen design in comparison to their own tastes! So why not make your kitchen stand out from the off and use some smart kitchen lighting to help perfectly complement the occasion.
Some hanging lights or versatile LED lights could be the way to go here, creating a spacious, even lighting effect throughout the room that will not be off-putting for your visitors.
Is open plan the way to go?
Many people believe if they are looking to make their kitchen space somewhere for social gatherings, they should make it as open plan as possible. But this is not necessarily always the case and is dependent on the size and original layout of your kitchen.
If you do decide to make your kitchen open plan, then it can have many benefits when it comes to hosting family or friends. It creates less of a restricted area for both yourself as a host and your guests to stand or sit. A larger space often makes people feel more comfortable in surroundings they are not familiar with, making your home far more appealing and welcoming.
But what if your space isn't the most suited to open plan? Can you still make it work? Common sense should prevail here, with the lack of space restricting the number of guests you can have at any one time. Another potential drawback to an open plan kitchen space is the acoustics, with there being a higher chance of an audible echo in an open plan design, so it is worth keeping this in mind!
Think about seating
It is important to make your guests feel comfortable when you are hosting them, which is why you should think long and hard about how you are going to seat your guests. This could mean investing in a couch; a luxurious way of making people feel right at home.
Make sure you are aware of where you are placing your seating in comparison to the rest of your kitchen. To make the most of the space you have, look to seamlessly divide your kitchen into a work zone, eating zone and a zone made for socialising.
Is a kitchen island essential?
Many people think that a kitchen island is essential to successfully entertain guests in their kitchen, but is it really necessary? It can be a great bonus, creating a focal point where guests can sit, stand or place their food and drinks.
But if you are unable to install a kitchen island in your home, this is not an issue, as you can easily work around this. As long as you have some form of a table to house food or drinks or for people to sit at, you're all set.

When we were kids, my sister and I had matching T-shirts that said "Oreo Triathlon: Twist, Lick, Dunk!" I loved the t-shirts and am sad that they are long gone.
For the record, Chris wants to add that a triathlon is really "Swim, Run, Bike."
I should relay my Oreo dilemma from this past week. To satisfy the first of many pregnancy cravings, I made my husband go buy me a bag of Oreos. I deliberately avoided looking at the fat content. I was going to enjoy this. Then, of course, I had to avoid looking at my teeth in the mirror.
Well, after a couple days (rationing myself to three cookies at a time to savor the goodness) there were only six left. Nobody was around to see me eat all six or to stop me, but I knew that Chris would notice when there were none left, or that he would detect the poorly disposed of bag in the garbage can, no matter how hard I would try to hide it. I ate the first one. Really good. Second one. Third one. Then I had that dilemma: if I ate one more, there would only be two left. If I ate two more, there would only be one left, and that's just cruel to leave just one for my hardworking husband. I suppose I could eat them all, destroy all incriminating evidence, and go buy another bag of Oreos and no one would know the difference.
I used terrific self restraint and left two cookies (even though my glass had plenty of milk left for two more "dunks"). There they were, sitting on the counter, waiting for Chris to notice them. When he finally got home from work, I proudly announced, "Honey, I saved you two Oreos! And let me tell you, it was hard not to eat them!" He then responded, "Oh, you can have them!"
Oh, the cruelty!

It's official. KISS bassist Gene Simmons (62) has married his lady love of twenty-eight years, Shannon Tweed (54) in a star-studded celebration in Beverly Hills.
The wedding was held last night and was attended by such family friends as the rest of KISS, Hugh Hefner, and Bill Maher, as well as the happy couple's two children, Nick and Sophie.
The tune is may be bit of a wedding cliche at this point, but when the couple had their first dance to At Last by Etta James… I gotta say, it might be the most appropriate use of it ever. Twenty-eight years is a long, long time to be meandering toward the alter, but it seems to have worked for them.
I hope you'll all join with me in wishing Gene and Shannon every possible joy as they begin a new chapter in their relationship. Mazeltov, you crazy kids!

Drug-testing impasse remains
By THOMAS A.
A deadlocked Iowa Senate proved incapable Friday of resolving a longstanding impasse over a proposal to expand the rights of employers to test workers for drug and alcohol use.
Before deciding to defer their debate until next week, lawmakers rejected two alternative plans, both of which would have increased employers' current drug-testing privileges.
"We'll continue to work on it and see how it goes," said Senate Majority Leader Stewart Iverson, R-Dows. "I don't know if it's something we have to do (this year). It's definitely something we want to do."
With adjournment just a few days away, Statehouse Republicans are under enormous pressure to liberalize the 10-year-old Iowa law spelling out the limited circumstances under which an employer may compel a worker to produce a urine or blood sample for testing.
Republicans had strong financial support from business groups in winning control of both houses of the Legislature in 1996, and legislative records show an army of business lobbyists are now pushing lawmakers to expand employers drug-testing rights. According to lobbyists' declarations, the Iowa Association of Business and Industry, an umbrella organization for business, is backed in the effort by lobbyists for manufacturers, insurers, retailers, hospitals, contractors, utilities and chambers of commerce.
Lobbyists for labor organizations and the Iowa Civil Liberties Union are working against changing the law.
On Feb. 27, the Iowa House approved a major expansion of employers' drug-testing rights, but Republicans have been unable to produce a sufficient number of votes to pass a similar bill in the Senate.
Most Republicans argue that the measure is necessary to maintain safe workplaces.
"I truly believe we're doing this for the workers of Iowa," said Sen. John Redwine, R-Sioux City, a supporter of a House-style version of the bill.
Democrats, and a few Republicans, argue that the House-passed version of the bill gives employers too much authority. The House bill, critics say, invades workers' privacy and could be misused by bosses to intimidate even drug-free workers.
During debate Friday, lawmakers first voted 27-23 to reject a Democratic plan that would expand somewhat the existing legal authority of Iowa employers to test.
When that proposal failed, three Republicans - Derryl McLaren of Farragut, Jack Rife of Durant and Mary Lundby of Marion - joined 22 Democrats to thwart a GOP plan similar to the House-approved bill. Initially, the GOP plan failed on a 25-25 vote. The final vote shifted to 26-24 when Iverson switched to gain a parliamentary advantage in the debate.
The Senate is divided on several elements of the drug-testing debate. Among them:
Des Moines Register, Saturday, April 26, 1997, 1M.

Nigeria is a country of hustling people. In Nigeria, the hustle is real. And it reflects in the kind of street foods we have. Below are 6 street foods that show you are Nigerian.
- Bread and akara (bean balls): This is the Nigerian equivalent of hamburger. Like hamburger, bread and akara is a very simple food to make: get bread, stuff akara inside and press together. There, you have it. A truly Nigerian snack that will be so tasty, even when you are in the US, your mouth will water just remembering how it tastes. Yum!
- Soaking garri and groundnuts a.k.a asoki: Nigerians love soaking garri, which is also nicknamed 'African cornflakes'. To make asoki, get some garri (a food item made from ground, dried and fried cassava). You might prefer the sour sweet variety called Ijebu garri; or you might prefer the one yellowed with palm oil. Whichever one you prefer, add some sugar, lots of groundnuts and some water to soak (preferably cold water).Voila, you have a lovely porridge that can be so tasty, 'you'll forget your name'. Lol.
- Banana and groundnuts: this is another great street food combination Nigerians love. It is normally readily available at the motor parks. The banana has a cooling effect on the gullet and the groundnut provides a complimentary taste that is indescribable. Try it to know what I'm talking about.
- Agidi and akara: Agidi is made up of congealed corn paste. It is normally eaten cold with hot akara.
- Roasted corn and pear/coconut: In Nigeria, roasted corn is habitually eaten together with coconut or roasted pear. You could also boil the pear. I sometimes prefer the pear boiled, as it makes the pear oil dissolve very sweetly in the mouth. Yum yum yum! The combinations produce a unique taste different from when the items are eaten individually. The taste of corn and pear eaten at the same time is better experienced than described.
To experience some of these tastes, you don't have to travel to Nigeria. For instance, you can conceivably eat corn and coconut anywhere in the world.
But to experience other tastes like agidi and akara, you might just have to visit Naija.
What is certain is that these culinary combinations will give you a taste of the Naija hustle way. Enjoy.

The start of Oregon State's season is just 22 days away! With the off-season quickly coming to an end, Building the Dam is unveiling their top 50 most valuable football players for the 2019 season.
#20: Jordan Whittley - Defensive Tackle
Jordan Whittley is the highest touted newcomer to Oregon State's revamped defensive line. The JUCO-product transferred from Laney College, which is the same school that was recently chosen by "Last Chance U" to film season 5.
Laney College went 11-2 last year and were the 2018 California Community College Athletic Association Football Champions pic.twitter.com/CEuD4gDCDY
— Last Chance U (@LastChanceUAlum) August 7, 2019
Yes, that is Jordan Whittley No. 33 hoisting the championship trophy. Whittley stands at 6-foot-1 and 325-pounds. The former running back was moved to the defensive line after tearing his ACL and putting on weight (he was up to 390 pounds at one point). Whittley has surprising athleticism for his size and he personally takes offense if a team rushes for over 100 yards while he is on the defensive line. No team ran over 100 yards against his team in community college; a fact he is rightfully proud of.
In recent weeks both OregonLive and the Corvallis Gazette-Times have written features on Whittley. Unfortunately, in 2019 he will be a redshirt senior for the Beavers and will have just one year in Pac-12 to show off his skills. Will his presence be enough to boost the run defense? We'll find out in three short weeks.
Projected Statistics:
34 tackles, 12 TFLs , 4 Sacks

Or so says the Graun: A plan to halve carbon emissions every decade, while green energy continues to double every five years, provides a simple but rigorous roadmap to tackle climate change, scientists say. Well you can't fault the simplicity; then again "everyone should be nice to everyone else" is also simple. The obvious flaw is that Moore's law is descriptive, not prescriptive: it describes a situation that is observed to exist. It is not a "law" in the legislative sense of a thing that we want to happen1.
You'd hope the distinction would be obvious; for the Graun, sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't. Prof John Schellnhuber... said the aim of the carbon law was to provide "a really compelling story of how decarbonisation can be achieved", and to bridge the gap between the pledges made by nations in Paris and what will be needed in the long term to keep global warming well below the danger limit of 2C. The bit I've bolded appears to be the key, and calling it a "story" makes it much much weaker than the headline. Which isn't terrible in itself; headlines are always stupid2.
Enough of the Graun; let's look at A roadmap for rapid decarbonization by Johan Rockström... Malte Meinshausen, Nebojsa Nakicenovic and Hans Joachim Schellnhuber in Science 24 Mar 2017: Vol. 355, Issue 6331, pp. 1269-1271. DOI: 10.1126/science.aah3443. Which begins Although the Paris Agreement's goals (1) are aligned with science (2) and can, in principle, be technically and economically achieved (3), alarming inconsistencies remain between science-based targets and national commitments... "aligned with science" is a slightly odd phrase, don't you think? Designed to slip past without triggering any reaction in the unwary mind. What's "(2)"? It's our old friend HJS, in H. J. Schellnhuber, S. Rahmstorf, R. Winkelmann, Nat. Clim. Chang. 6, 649 (2016), not that self-citation is any crime. Although that's only a Nature Climate Change commentary not a proper paper. I'm somewhat cautious about the links between physical science, cost/ benefit analysis, and politics; but happily the paper is paywalled so I don't have to pretend to want to read it. But I'll note that and can, in principle, be technically and economically achieved (3) is somewhat odd, because the aforecited "(2)" already contains Limiting the anthropogenic temperature anomaly to 1.5–2 °C is possible, yet requires transformational change across the board of modernity so what exactly is the need for ref 3, other than to make the text look respectable by having lots of nice references?
But enough nit-picking, what do they actually say? I'm glad you asked: propose framing the decarbonization challenge in terms of a global decadal roadmap based on a simple heuristic—a "carbon law"—of halving gross anthropogenic carbon-dioxide (CO2) emissions every decade. Complemented by immediately instigated, scalable carbon removal... so it's a heuristic. Or, looked at another way, a slogan; but that wouldn't sound so academic. I'm dubious about the need for scaling up carbon removal; and if you can halve CO2 emissions every decade, you don't need it anyway. Perhaps one of the authors was desperately interested in removal.
2017–2020: No-Brainers
Oh dear. Scrolling down just a little bit more in the hope of discovering if there was anything to this paper, or if it really was no more than a slogan, I discovered this section header. I hate the phrase "no brainer". It is so stupid, so ill-bred, so uncultured, so dismissive of debate. And now it appears in journals - admittedly, USAnian, not British, journals - like Science?
Naturally, I stopped reading at that point. What else could I do?
Update: another thought
There's another obvious thought, though, which is: why would you expect any response to follow a half-every-decade law? An S-shaped curve is more likely: things begin slowly - arguably we're round about that point - then progress becomes faster, then the easy stuff is done and you're left with the hard bits and progress slows again. If you were decarbonising by, say, producing solar panels, why would that kick in so suddenly in the next decade? and if it did: why would you then slow down in the following decade?
1. Originally. After being articulated it did become a rough plan for chip makers and foundaries to work towards.
2. Except mine.

There are not the technologies to rapidly halve carbon release on this "heuristic".
Example: To vastly reduce carbon release from transportation, changing cars from gasoline/diesel to electric. How low carbon this is depends partly on how low carbon the electric grid is. If the grid is low carbon, this is pretty good, if the grid is all coal is about the same as the best gasoline cars.
Growth rate of EVs is is significant, but is starting at tiny numbers. Just passed 1% of cars sold in the USA. Might be able to double this every 5 years... That hits half the of new cars in about 6 doublings: or about 30 years. Need about another 10 years to get to half of all cars on the road as the useful like of a car is well over 10 years. Probably can't do much faster for a long list of good reasons.

So a CO2 emissions half-life of 10-years and a renewables doubling time of 5.5-years as opposed to a SLR doubling time of 10-years (e. g. you know who). I'd really like to see the same analysis for 20-year half-life for CO2 emissions and 11-year doubling times for renewables.

The problem is, Moore's law is a special case.. namely that an ongoing linear decrease in feature size on silicon chips causes an exponential increase in the number of components per unit area.
Which is very nice, all well and good, but there is nothing in there that says that any other technology or process should follow such a law.
There are some quite obvious problems with exponential growth in the energy sector. We imply that, for instance, at the end of this doubling process we'd have enough PV panel production capacity to power the world every 10 years; this isn't the tech sector with a near limitless market for more CPU power and storage, so that capacity would quickly become idle.

There is no need to remove carbon, which is harmless. There is a need to remove some of the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. If the current concentration of 400 ppm is maintained, much land will eventually be drowned by the 25 meter sea level rise.

How do Sierra Blanca public insurance adjusters work?
There are experts you can work with to represent you in recording and negotiating your insurance coverage claim. They are known in a lot of states as "public insurers". Public insurers work only for policyholders, not insurance companies. There are two other kinds of insurance adjusters: Company, or "team" adjusters who are employed by your insurance business, and so-called "independent" adjusters that function only for insurance firms on a contract employing basis.

Your insurance provider could appoint one or several adjusters to your claim during time. Each one could have a different strategy and level of experience. One might have very little experience and also be challenging to interact with, an additional might be very friendly and have a great deal of experience. Lots of people report to United Policyholders that their first insurance adjuster offered them a settlement sum, then left the business or was reassigned when a new insurer came on, that brand-new adjuster rescinded the deal or made them begin from scratch on the insurance claim. We describe that issue as "revolving insurance adjusters." United Policyholders helped pass a regulation in California to shield consumers from being victimized by turning adjusters.

hi everyone.
i have been using ce3 plugin for several years now on my website www.eric-photo.net
i did not upgrade from ce3 to backlight (which i know is very good) for the simple reason that
i had to do all my galleries again. no time now to do that maybe later.
i recently moved from windows 7 to windows 10
my question is very simple: are the ce3 plugins working with windows 10?
in which directory am i supposed to install them?
your great help is very much appreciated

I think it depends more on the version of Lightroom you're using.
You would install them in the same place as Windows 7 or 8
http://ce3wiki.theturninggate.net/doku. … stallation
Just a user with way too much time on his hands.
ttg-tips.com, Backlight 2/3 test site
Like Rod says, Lightroom will be the deciding factor, rather than the OS version. Lightroom's Web module has been finicky in recent versions, and your mileage may vary. Which only means to me that moving the feature set to Web with Backlight was the right thing to do.
ok tks very much for your help
