The anniversary of Egypt's 2011 uprising brought a violent display of the country's furious divisions Saturday, as giant crowds danced at government-backed rallies and security forces crushed demonstrations by rival Islamists and some secular activists.
Clashes nationwide killed at least 29 protesters, health officials said. The starkly contrasting scenes reflect the three years of turmoil Egypt has faced since the Jan. 25, 2011 revolution began and ultimately toppled autocrat Hosni Mubarak, replacing him with a transitional military council.
Last summer's millions-strong demonstrations against Mubarak's elected successor, Islamist President Mohammed Morsi, led to a military coup removing him. And as Egypt looks forward to presidential elections later this year, many celebrating Saturday in the famed Tahrir Square demanded army chief Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi run for president.
"El-Sissi saved the nation. It was up in the air like this helicopter and he carried it to safety," said Mervat Khalifa, 62, sitting on the sidewalk and waving to a helicopter overhead.
Military helicopters showered crowds in Tahrir with small flags and gift coupons to buy refrigerators, heaters, blankets and home appliances. State-backed rallies also showcased prancing horses and traditional music for ecstatic crowds.
Morsi's supporters used Saturday's anniversary to build new momentum in their defiance of the military and its political transition plan, despite being hit by a crippling police crackdown and rising public resentment against his Muslim Brotherhood group.
"Anger is bigger than all. Repression sparks revolutions. The burning of Egypt won't last," a statement issued by a Brotherhood-led coalition said.
The fiercest clashes raged in an eastern Cairo suburb, where Islamist supporters fought with security forces for hours in pitched street battles. Troops fired over the crowd to disperse protesters who threw gasoline bombs. Protesters set up a field hospital to aid the wounded.
Violence also was strong in the provinces. A car bomb exploded outside a security camp in the city of Suez, where gunmen clashed with police, witnesses said. Nine civilians were wounded in the bombing, authorities said.
In neighboring Ismailiya, protesters chanting "down with military rule" also battled security forces. In Alexandria, a female protester was shot and killed during clashes, officials said.
Two protesters were killed in the southern city of Minya, security officials said.
The clashes in the eastern Cairo suburb of Alf Maskan were fiercest.
Protesters Mustafa Mohammed and Sami, who only gave his first name for fear of reprisals, said security personnel and rooftop snipers used live rounds against demonstrators. The gunfire struck a natural gas pipeline three times, Mohammed said.
Sami said protesters threw gasoline bombs in the clashes, which wounded hundreds. Two security officials in the area described the situation as tense and said at least six people were killed. The protesters put the figures at 24. It was not immediately possible to reconcile the figures.
The clashes contrasted with scenes of celebration in Tahrir Square and other major squares in provincial capitals, where long queues of demonstrators lined up to enter the tightly secured areas through metal detectors.
Some celebrating wore paper masks with el-Sissi's picture and their rallies showed a ferociously anti-Islamist tone.
Soldiers guarding Tahrir Square joined them in chanting: "The people want the execution of the Brotherhood." A crowd beat a woman in a conservative headscarf and drove her away, believing she was a Brotherhood sympathizer.
Crowds also turned on journalists. More than a dozen journalists were beaten by the demonstrators, or detained by police for protection from angry crowds. Demonstrators chased one Egyptian female journalist, mistakenly believing she worked for satellite news broadcaster Al-Jazeera — seen as pro-Brotherhood. They pulled her hair and tried to strangle her with a scarf until police took her into a building for protection.
Security forces also dispersed rallies by secular youth activists who led the 2011 anti-Mubarak uprising and who are critical of both the Islamists and the military. A number of their most prominent figures have been detained for months or sentenced to prison amid a campaign to silence even secular voices of dissent.
One prominent activist, Nazly Hussein, was detained by police on the subway as she headed to join one rally downtown, her mother Ghada Shahbendar said. Hussein's lawyer, Amr Imam, said that when he went to see her at the police station, a policeman shoved him, pointed his rifle at him and warned him he had 10 seconds to leave or he'd shoot.
Police used tear gas to disperse one small gathering by secular activists in the Cairo neighborhood of Mohandessin, beating and kicking at least one of them, several participants said. The groups later issued an appeal to their supporters to withdraw from street protests because of "excessive violence" by security forces.
"The only thing allowed is el-Sissi revolutionaries," one of the activists, blogger Wael Khalil, said with a laugh. "Do they think that there will be working democracy this way?"
In its statement, the Brotherhood appealed to secular youth groups to unite with it in protests.
Secular youth groups, however, have shunned the Islamists, whom they equally accuse of undermining the 2011 uprising's goals while in power.
The rallies took place in an atmosphere of fear, a day after four bombs targeting police killed six people around Cairo. Another 15 people were killed around the country Friday when Morsi's supporters clashed with security forces. The Interior Ministry said that 237 people were arrested during those protests.
The al-Qaida-inspired group Ansar Beit al-Maqdis, or the Champions of Jerusalem, claimed responsibility for Friday's bombings, warning of coming attacks and telling citizens to stay away from police stations.
"We tell our dear nation that these attacks were only the first drops of rain, so wait for what is coming," read the statement, posted on militant websites.
The group, based in the lawless Sinai Peninsula, has claimed responsibility for the failed assassination attempt on the interior minister in September and a suicide bombing in a Nile Delta city that killed 16. The group calls its attacks revenge for the killings of pro-Morsi supporters and the military offensive in Sinai.
The government has accused the Brotherhood of ultimately being behind the militant violence and declared the group a terrorist organization. It has produced no proof publicly and the group says the accusation is baseless.
But pro-government media — which means most Egyptian television stations and newspapers — tout the link and a broad segment of the public are convinced. They note the Brotherhood's alliances with radicals while Morsi was in office, street violence by his supporters during and after his rule and the militants' own pronouncements that they are retaliating for his ouster.
Early Saturday, a bomb exploded next to a police training institute in eastern Cairo, only damaging the facility's walls.
Ahmed Mahmoud, an engineering student living nearby, said angry residents quickly blamed the Brotherhood.
"People were saying they will carry arms and kill all Muslim Brothers who dare to pass by," he said.

By Michael Ochs
CSCE Staff Advisor
The United States Helsinki Commission held a hearing on September 9, 2003 reviewing United States policy toward the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE). The hearing considered the many security, economic, and humanitarian challenges facing the United States, and how the 55-member nation organization can be best utilized to address these challenges.
Testifying for the State Department were A. Elizabeth Jones, Assistant Secretary for European and Eurasian Affairs, and Lorne W. Craner, Assistant Secretary for Democracy, Human Rights and Labor, and Helsinki Commission Member.
In his opening statement, Helsinki Commission Chairman, Rep. Christopher H. Smith (R-NJ) emphasized the important role the OSCE plays in promoting American security abroad. "The explicit and implicit connection between security and human rights, the fulcrum of the Helsinki process," he said, "has been at the center of U.S. thinking and policy since the day almost exactly two years ago when religious fanatics flew airplanes into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon."
At the same time, he bemoaned the lack of democratic progress throughout much of the former USSR. Particularly in Central Asia, he said, "It becomes more and more difficult to harbor expectations that the future will be better or much different than the past or even the present."
Helsinki Commission Ranking Member Rep. Benjamin L. Cardin (D-MD) expressed his appreciation to the State Department and executive branch for their willingness to work with the Commission over the years. Mr. Cardin particularly lauded the work of Ambassador Stephan M. Minikes, head of the U.S. Mission to the OSCE, whose efforts, he said, helped to form a unified agenda with Congress in the OSCE. He also expressed his appreciation to the State Department, later echoed by Chairman Smith, for arranging a visit by the Commission to Guantanamo Bay that allowed Commissioners to respond to concerns raised by the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly regarding humanitarian standards for detainees.
In her remarks, Assistant Secretary Jones noted two particular OSCE successes during the past year that were the result of U.S. efforts: the Vienna Anti-Semitism Conference and the new, annual Security Review Conference. She also identified the adoption of the Anti-Trafficking Action Plan as a positive development.
Secretary Jones listed several priorities for the OSCE Maastricht Ministerial, including progress on Russia's Istanbul commitments; mandating the 2004 Berlin Anti-Semitism Conference; and, addressing the pressing problems, discussed at the Security Review Conference, of travel document security and Man Portable Air Defense systems (MANPADs).
Secretary Jones identified several broad areas where the OSCE particularly serves U.S. interests: human rights and democracy promotion; conflict prevention and conflict resolution; and trans-national issues, such as human trafficking, anti-Semitism, racism and xenophobia, the rights of the Roma, refugees, and internally displaced persons. The United States, she said, also hoped to enhance the OSCE's police training capabilities "not only to step up anti-crime capabilities, but to deal with the human rights concerns that are related to the way police deal with civil society."
Assistant Secretary Craner began on a positive note, identifying encouraging signs throughout the region. "In a majority of the OSCE countries," he said, "we see growing and increasingly vibrant civil society groups advocating for peaceful change. The rule of law is being bolstered as countries move the administration of prisons under the auspices of the ministry of justice, and guards receive training to respect international standards."
He added, however, that there are also areas of both stagnation and backsliding in the OSCE region, all the more troubling given the numerous regional successes. "It is most disheartening," he said, "for the people of those countries who see other nations which have emerged from the Soviet empire now joining NATO and the EU and enjoying the fruits of democracy. Meanwhile, some governments remain authoritarian or unwilling to move beyond the old struggles and practices."
Secretary Craner noted troubling signs for democratization efforts throughout the former Soviet Union. Central Asian states, he said, had made little progress. Upcoming presidential elections in Ukraine would seriously affect U.S. attitudes toward that country's suitability for integration into Euro-Atlantic and European institutions. The Russian parliamentary elections in December are showing some troubling signs, while holding legitimate presidential elections in Chechnya would be extremely difficult, given the security situation there. He said, however, that such elections could potentially contribute to the end of that conflict.
Chairman Smith noted his pleasure that the sanctions list, established by the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 which he sponsored, which groups countries into three tiers based on their action on the issue of human trafficking would be released the week of the hearing. He also welcomed the U.S. military's initiatives against trafficking in South Korea and hoped for similar progress in the Balkans. Secretary Craner agreed that countries were taking the sanctions law seriously, and both witnesses stated that the U.S. and British militaries were taking strong action on trafficking issues. Smith and Jones emphasized that the pressure was not off countries that made it out of the bottom tier.
On the former Yugoslavia, Assistant Secretary Jones described gradual progress at the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia and improved cooperation from the government in Belgrade. "The list [of war criminals] is being reduced," she said, "but it is not done yet." Commissioner Cardin, however, noted that the patience of the international community was coming to an end. Both agreed that the political leadership in Serbia seems to want to do the right thing, but needs help from the United States to reinforce their efforts.
On issues of property restitution, Secretary Jones assured the Commissioners that when she travels to pertinent countries, the issue is always on the agenda and explained that the United States has had considerable success convincing governments to take action on a bilateral basis. She also agreed with Representative Cardin that poverty and corruption make democratic development more difficult. She said that the United States would try to attack the issue through the OSCE by working hard on corruption.
Commissioner Cardin brought attention to the United States' efforts in the OSCE's Parliamentary Assembly to create a mechanism extending Helsinki principles to the OSCE's Mediterranean Partners. Assistant Secretaries Jones and Craner said that the administration supported the goal but was uncertain whether the best way to accomplish it was directly through the OSCE or through a new, OSCE-like institution.
Chairman Smith then focused on the importance of "naming names" in the OSCE. He said that "one of the most vital aspects of the Helsinki process was specifically naming names" and "holding people to account," but he noted a curious reluctance to do so in the last ten years. Assistant Secretary Craner stated that the United States had indeed "named names" with regard to the situation in Belarus. The United States sponsored a resolution at the UN Commission on Human Rights putting Belarus in a category with countries like Turkmenistan and North Korea. Assistant Secretary Jones admitted that it was difficult to influence President Lukashenka of Belarus but said there were still elements of civil society in Belarus, activists in the Belarusian body politic, and free media that needed outside moral support.
Finally, Chairman Smith raised the issues of Chechnya and missing persons in the Balkans. Assistant Secretary Jones said that Chechnya was on the agenda for the Camp David summit between Bush and Putin in late September . She also indicated that the OSCE was negotiating with Russia to define a role for the organization in that conflict, ideally getting a mission back on the ground.
On the Balkans, Secretary Craner said that the United States was actively pressing governments bilaterally and through the OSCE to account for the fate of missing persons. He also highlighted the United States' support for the International Commission for Missing Persons, which is engaged in the painstakingly slow process of DNA identification. Lastly, Secretary Jones assured the Commissioners that the United States was not merely paying lip service to the concerns of minorities in Kosovo. She said, "It is a tough issue, but it nevertheless is a critical one in our policy of standards before status."
The United States Helsinki Commission, an independent federal agency, by law monitors and encourages progress in implementing provisions of the Helsinki Accords. The Commission, created in 1976, is composed of nine Senators, nine Representatives and one official each from the Departments of State, Defense and Commerce.

Southwestern Egg Rolls
I'm back! Pardon my absence, but I am all moved into my new apartment (as long as having an obstacle course of unpacked boxes and bins scattered throughout the whole place still counts as being moved in)! Naturally, the only room that has been completely unpacked so far is the kitchen. I missed cooking and sharing with you!
I've wanted to make a Southwestern egg roll recipe for quite a while now, and it seemed like a great inaugural dish to break in my new kitchen. Whenever I'm scouring the web for recipe inspiration, I usually end up bookmarking like crazy, so I have a system of bookmark folders by category to try to stay somewhat organized. I knew I had several Southwestern egg roll recipes bookmarked, and when I went to check them out I realized that they were all basically the exact same recipe! That happens a lot in food blogging. Recipes get popular and catch fire (hopefully not literally). The funny part is that each of the recipes I had marked on different blogs were from different years (2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012), so I guess it was a pretty slowly building fire.
After making these I can totally see why so many other bloggers have jumped on board. These could definitely rival a similar appetizer at any major restaurant chain, and since they are baked, not fried, they're actually healthy! The blend of flavors and textures is delicious. Hearty spinach and black beans, sweet, juicy corn, gooey cheese, green chiles for a little heat, and a tasty blend of spices for a pop of Southwestern flavor, all wrapped up in a crispy on the outside, soft on the inside egg roll wrapper. Yum. I highly recommend serving these with a zippy salsa for dipping. If you wanted to add some meat to these you could certainly add the chopped, cooked chicken to the mix and I'm sure it would be delicious. These egg rolls are perfect for an appetizer, snack, or meatless main course. I listed the points and nutrition information per egg roll so that you can choose your own serving size, depending on how hungry you are! To view your WW PersonalPoints for this recipe and track it in the WW app or site, click here!
Southwestern Egg Rolls
- 2 cups frozen corn, thawed
- 1 (15 oz) can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 2 cups reduced fat shredded Mexican cheese blend, I used Weight Watchers brand
- 1 (10 oz) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
- 4 scallions, green onions, chopped
- 1 (4 oz) can of green chiles, drained
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 24 egg roll wrappers, 1 package
- Preheat the oven to 425. Lightly mist two baking sheets with cooking spray and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients except the egg roll wrappers and stir to thoroughly combine.
- Pour some water into a small dish and set aside. On a flat surface, place an egg roll wrapper, corner facing toward you (like a diamond) and put ¼ cup of the mixture from the bowl on the center of the wrapper. Spread the mixture in a horizontal line from the left corner to the right corner of the wonton wrapper, leaving ½ inch or so of space on each side. Fold the bottom corner closest to you up over the ingredients and give it a 90 degree roll. Fold the side corners in and tuck them as you give the filled section another 90 degree roll. Dip your finger in the dish or reserved water and lightly wet the edges of the remaining top corner of the wrapper. Finish rolling the filled egg roll over the wet corner so that it adheres. Place wrapped egg roll onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
- When all of the egg rolls are wrapped and on the baking sheets, lightly mist the tops with cooking spray. Bake for 14-15 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until the wrappers are golden brown. Serve with salsa for dipping.

Big Data: Uncovering Newer Dimensions in Fraud Preemption
Financial services have been vulnerable to fraud ever since the days of barter trading. As the renowned corporate thinker Alvin Toffler opines, the third wave has proliferated the nature and means of delivering financial services spanning the entire spectrum of services such as mortgages, checking, savings, cards, asset management and international transactions. With these proliferations, one parameter that numerous organizations are exploring to fight fraud is "big data."
With advancements in both the quality and quantity of data as well as financial services and technology, fraudsters have also kept up with the times, developing more sophisticated techniques over time.
An increasing number of financial services organizations have started discovering the power of new data management technologies to fight fraud. With multiple devices and types of transactions proliferating, the challenges involved in fraud detection have also increased. In order to detect fraud and identify security breaches geospatial data from smartphone apps, customer behavior from social media, weblog data from the organization's online channels, state-of-the-art fraud detection models, and more, have to be stored and analyzed along with data form core operations. The below diagram provides a high level view of the normal business architecture in an anti-fraud mechanism in financial services organizations.
Recently financial institutions have been developing end-to-end capabilities to leverage data mining, modeling and analytics to define specific patterns in data sets and flag anomalies in real time. With real time detection and remediation, companies are rediscovering their ability to altogether stop or quarantine and re-route suspicious transactions. Financial institutions have a lot more data at their fingertips to track both external frauds (involving customers, account holders, policy holders) and internal (employees) ones.
Credit card companies, which deal with a large number of transactions and enormous data, have been doing fraud detection well before the big data term was coined. But fraud detection is still a new use case because big data democratizes fraud detection and there's ample room for interoperability of structured and semi-structured data and analytics. With big data, a financial institution doesn't really need to have the massive scale of financial and IT resources to detect fraud.
An interesting example of interoperability in the area of data and analytics is that of banks and credit unions joining hands to tie data and touch points – in order to elevate the level of customer experience. Both firms can derive meaningful Big Data analytics for their business cross-play in the detection and prevention of fraud. Such interoperability models and diverse channel integration not only strengthen the fraud detection and prevention mechanism; it significantly optimizes the cost of managing large scale data as well. This enables FS organizations to focus on specific analytics and leverage each other's information for a suitable operational cause based on predefined SLAs.
Most credit bureaus today have the ability to provide customized credit ratings/scores for individual account holders. If the banks religiously follow the end-to-end process – enhance their data collection; use fraud detection modeling strategies; routinely train, validate and test the models; analyze results and iterate to implement results using transactions and customers' credit bureau ratings/scores – they will be able to significantly improve their fraud detection rates on new and existing accounts. At the same time, banks can track the consumer behavioral patterns, which can be shared with credit bureaus to add a meaningful dimension to customized score cards.
Loans and mortgage companies have started leveraging their big data programs to detect external fraud by mining social networks for suspicion of fraud. For example, a person who has been defaulting on his loans due to non-availability of funds, but keeps posting images of his new purchases (car, consumer durables) etc. on his social media profiles, can be brought within the purview of scrutiny.
By gathering data on withdrawals, transactions and the exact locations of these transactions, financial institutions will be able to thread together specific patterns of suspicious transactions. When one combines transaction data with the social media communication tools of semi-structured text or mobile locations, financial institutions can immediately detect and flag potentially suspicious transactions.
Coming to internal fraud, let's consider instances such as rogue trading, embezzlement of funds, evading policies etc. In the high profile case of a French rogue trader, a leading French bank lost approximately €4.9 billion closing out positions fraudulently established by this trader. While the trader knew how to hide his deeds, the bank could have got a whiff of it at the opportune time only if reasonable flagging pointers were available then.
The concept of tracking individuals rather than accounts, while appealing, could prove extremely challenging. Most financial institutions today aren't really set up to monitor users; they just track account activity. But as more and more institutions actively start implementing practices to track user behavior, the tracking exercise per se might not end up being a stretch. A lot will depend on how much banks want to invest in solutions and services offered by third-parties, which often revolve around ID theft protection. For most bankers, ID theft monitoring doesn't seem to be the topmost priority at the moment; account monitoring is.
More than ever before, FS firms are cognizant about the negative impact of fraud – given that their reputation, customer loyalty, shareholder confidence, etc. is at stake. Rapidly growing channels like mobile and online banking are also at risk. Moreover, given that banks rarely monitor customer behavior across multiple channels, fraudsters exploit cross-channels because of the difficulty to discover, track and resolve – as more often than not, fraudsters pose as customers, with their activities closely mirroring that of customers. With the volume of transactions increasing year-on-year and steady expansion of customer base in the new/rapidly growing channels, it's time financial institutions need to start combating fraud with the best of breed technology available today.

AM radio once played a central role in American life. The family would gather around the Philco to hear the latest Western or detective drama. The transistor radio was where baby boomers first heard the Beatles and other Top 40 hits. And, of course, there's no better way to take in a ballgame.
But the AM band is not what it used to be. Now, it's mostly a mix of talk shows and infomercials. According to the Federal Communications Commission, in the mid-1980s, AM radio still claimed 30 percent of the nation's radio listening hours. By 2010, that had dwindled to 17 percent. And among younger listeners, the number is just 4 percent. Part of the problem, says FCC Commissioner Ajit Pai, is that the AM signal is getting increasingly hard to hear.
"Whether you're outside and you're getting interference from a power line, or you're inside and everything from the bulbs in your house to the cable box on top of your TV send out signals that conflict with the AM radio signal, and so for broadcasters trying to reach an audience, it's more and more difficult for them to do that," Pai says.
Pai and other commissioners are proposing a number of fixes for the interference problem, including making it easier for AM stations to move their signal to the FM band. They've also proposed modifying the rules that require many AM stations to power down at night.
Pai says AM radio is an important source of information, especially during an emergency like a natural disaster. Keeping the medium thriving is also important for minority broadcasters, two-thirds of whom broadcast on AM.
Pai also admits to some nostalgia of his own.
"I still remember almost 25 years ago listening to the KLKC 1540 broadcast of my high school basketball championship game in 1987, when my mom wouldn't allow me to go to the game in person so I had to go into my room, sulking a little bit, and tune it to 1540, and I listened to the broadcast that way," Pai says.
That station, KLKC, in Parsons, Kan., still broadcasts high school sports, says Brandon Nivens, the general manager. He says his station is taking other steps to increase its listening audience, including streaming its signal on the Internet.
"Getting into the online aspect of it really helps a lot. We actually stream our AM station online, so that kind of helps reach into the digital realm and kind of get a younger demographic that way," he says.
KLKC, like many in rural America, is tied to its community through local news. The station provides services that includes a swap show called The Trading Post, where on a recent day listeners offered everything from fresh-picked pecans to a used guitar amplifier for sale.
It's this kind of intimate connection AM broadcasters have with their listeners, Pai says, that makes revitalizing the AM band important.
"Whether it's the long-haul trucker who got used to listening to a station as he or she drove across the country to kids who listen to baseball games on warm summer nights, there is something about AM radio that's really embedded in our national culture, and so long as I have a perch here at the FCC I hope to advocate for that to continue," Pai says.
Not all of AM radio is struggling. In fact, five of the top 10 revenue-producing stations are on the AM dial. That's one reason Dennis Wharton of the National Association of Broadcasters is optimistic and supportive of the FCC's proposals.
"There's a lot to be said for AM radio, and the challenges are purely related to interference, and [if] we get those resolved, the industry is going to boom," Wharton says.
The FCC is gathering public comments on the proposed rule changes and may vote on them by next spring.

The Levitical Divisions. 1When David had grown old and was near the end of his days, he made his son Solomon king over Israel.a 2He then gathered together all the officials of Israel, along with the priests and the Levites.
3The Levites thirty years old and above were counted, and their total number was found to be thirty-eight thousand.b 4Of these, twenty-four thousand were to direct the service of the house of the LORD, six thousand were to be officials and judges, 5four thousand were to be gatekeepers,c and four thousand were to praise the LORD with the instruments which [David] had devised for praise. 6David apportioned them into divisions according to the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.d
7To the Gershonites belonged Ladan and Shimei. 8The sons of Ladan: Jehiel the chief, then Zetham and Joel; three in all.e 9The sons of Shimei were Shelomoth, Haziel, and Haran; three. These were the heads of the families of Ladan. 10The sons of Shimei were Jahath, Zizah, Jeush, and Beriah; these were the sons of Shimei, four in all. 11Jahath was the chief and Zizah was second to him; but Jeush and Beriah had few sons, and therefore they were classed as a single family, exercising a single office.
12The sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel; four in all.f 13The sons of Amram were Aaron and Moses. Aaron was set apart to be consecrated as most holy, he and his sons forever, to offer sacrifice before the LORD, to minister to him, and to bless in his name forever.g 14As for Moses, however, the man of God, his sons were counted as part of the tribe of Levi. 15The sons of Moses were Gershom and Eliezer.h 16The sons of Gershom: Shubael the chief.i 17The sons of Eliezer were Rehabiah the chief—Eliezer had no other sons, but the sons of Rehabiah were very numerous. 18The sons of Izhar: Shelomith the chief. 19The sons of Hebron: Jeriah, the chief, Amariah, the second, Jahaziel, the third, and Jekameam, the fourth.j 20The sons of Uzziel: Micah, the chief, and Isshiah, the second.k
21The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi. The sons of Mahli: Eleazar and Kish.l 22Eleazar died leaving no sons, only daughters; the sons of Kish, their kinsmen, married them.m 23The sons of Mushi: Mahli, Eder, and Jeremoth; three in all.n
24These were the sons of Levi according to their ancestral houses, the family heads as they were enrolled one by one according to their names. They performed the work of the service of the house of the LORD beginning at twenty years of age.o
25David said: "The LORD, the God of Israel, has given rest to his people, and has taken up his dwelling in Jerusalem forever.p 26Henceforth the Levites need not carry the tabernacle or any of the equipment for its service."q 27For by David's last words the Levites were enlisted from the time they were twenty years old. 28Their duty is to assist the sons of Aaron in the service of the house of the LORD, having charge of the courts, the chambers, and the preservation of everything holy: they take part in the service of the house of God. 29They also have charge of the showbread, of the fine flour for the grain offering, of the wafers of unleavened bread, and of the baking and mixing, and of all measures of quantity and size.r 30They are to be present every morning to offer thanks and to praise the LORD, and likewise in the evening;s 31and at every sacrifice of burnt offerings to the LORD on sabbaths, new moons, and feast days, in such numbers as are prescribed, they must always be present before the LORDt 32and observe what is prescribed for them concerning the tent of meeting, the sanctuary, and the sons of Aaron, their kinsmen, in the service of the house of the LORD.u

Well, it's been a doozy of a week. The idea of blogging has confounded me because, well, there's just too much muchness. How would I pick a topic? I think the remedy is to write a post all about me me me and just get it out of my system. Okay, here's what's been going on.
- Let's start with the good news. My sewing room is finally ready to move into! I ripped up the carpet, smoothed the subfloor with wood filler, sanded the whole thing with an industrial sander I rented (that was an interesting day), painted three base coats, and then stenciled on top. Whew! If I do say so myself, it looks beautiful.
- I want to start offering private lessons in my home studio, so if you're around the Dutchess County area and might be interested, please let me know!
- Okay, now for the not-so-good stuff. Jeff and I adopted a dog last weekend: a big, goofy, adorable lab/boxer mix named Phillip. We had him home for four days, and he started having behavioral problems during the afternoons: barking, whining, storming through the house like a hurricane, biting, etc. I called his former foster mom to discuss what was going on and ask for advice. It turned out that the time that Phillip was freaking out was the time of day that her two sons would come home from school, take Phillip (and his best doggy friend Gage) down to the creek, where they would play for hours with about 10-20 other kids and dogs. Obviously, this made him very happy. The foster family missed him sorely and told me that if we wanted to bring him back, they would adopt him permanently. Readers, it was obvious what we had to do. We tearfully drove Phillip back to his new forever home and said our goodbyes. Jeff and I adore animals and we never thought we'd be returning a dog we adopted. But it was obviously the right choice and Phillip is happy, so that's what's important. We miss you, Philly!
- The cats are happy again, too. (OMG, how handsome does Henry look on that floor?!)
- My dad is having his third brain surgery on Monday. They're going to remove his latest tumor and implant some sort of radiated seeds in his brain, which sounds very sci-fi to me. He's very resilient--stubbornly so, actually. So I can't worry about him too much. But if you think to send him some good thoughts in Arizona, please do. Feel better, Dad!
- Wow, sewing stuff seems so minor after that last one, but let's get back to some fluffier content. I finished Simplicity 1803 last night. That's the Kate Spade-inspired LBD I wrote about last week. I'm going to wear it today and get some pictures taken that I can share with you!
- I ordered a cotton-candy pink necklace to wear with it from this etsy shop. I can't wait for it to arrive.
- I made cheery new pillow covers.
- There's a lot more home dec stuff I could show you. A pink coffee table! Skull stencils! A treadle sewing machine table! But I actually have to run and grab a train into the city. I'm teaching a private lesson and then I have my millinery class at FIT. Thanks for listening, readers.

Announcing Sugar High Friday #43: Citrus!
I love reading the archives of Sugar High Friday, the monthly event created by Jennifer of The Domestic Goddess . Imagine recipe upon recipe dedicated to sweets, months after months, year after year….all at the click of button. While browsing one night last February, I noticed that the blog hosting SHF citrus way back when three years ago did no longer exist. It must have been really late in the night because I found myself emailing Jennifer telling her that if she was interested in a citrus theme again, that I'd love hosting it. I had heard that the list of future hosts was close to a year long so I put that thought to rest until she emailed back later that week and offered that I host in May…this year! Yippeee!
Why "Citrus"? The simplest answer I have is that after chocolate (or right alongside), citruses are my favorite flavors. Lemons, lime, oranges, tangerines, clementines, mandarines, grapefruits, kumquats,…you name it, I dig it. I know that this does not apply to everybody and without putting citrus as the star of the show, even a touch of lemon juice or grated zest can enhance a dessert tremendously. The bright colors of the fruits and the desserts they are prepared with cannot but make you happy and ready for summer. Let's get all zesty and let's pucker up with citrus in May!
To participate all you have to do is make a dessert featuring any sort (or all if you feel ambitious!) of citrus. Post something that you create something specifically for the event, not from your archives. Use it as the main ingredient of a dessert or as an accent if you are somewhat "citrus hesitant". The possibilities are endless: mousses, cakes, ice creams, custards, brownies, blondies, sauces, candies,….Let your imagination and your creativity run loose!
Life is wild around here in May (I am turning a year older next week and I have lots of cakes to eat!) with celebrations and visitors so here a few guidelines I would like participants to follow to make sure I do not misplace anybody's entry while on a work or sugar coma 🙂
– The deadline for this month SHF is May 25th. Late bloggers will have to send me a care package of sour lemon candies 🙂
– In your post, please include a link to Jennifer's blog and mine so it is easy to track back posts that might have fallen through our careful eyes.
– Once you have posted, send me an email at sugarhighfridaycitrus AT gmail DOT com. We are all busy and I sometimes don't check my links back for days and I might miss that you posted for the event. Please, pretty please, let's make it hassle free by sending me an email with the following information:
- your name
- your blog name
- your blog URL
- your post title and short description is you wish
- your post URL
- a picture of your dessert resized to be 200 pixels wide with your blog name as your picture file name
– If you do not have a blog and wish to participate (Yes, I am looking at you Bina), send me an email at the above address with a description and picture of your creation. If you wish to provide a recipe, and I encourage you to as we can never have too many (!) I will put it on a separate page of this blog.
Now this being said: no excuse people….I want to see your citrus 🙂
Feel free to use this badge in your blog post or side bar.

Book Spotlight of A Question of Honor by Charles Todd
A Question of Honor by Charles Todd
From Good Reads.com
In the latest mystery from New York Times bestselling author Charles Todd, World War I nurse and amateur sleuth Bess Crawford investigates an old murder that occurred during her childhood in India, a search for the truth that will transform her and leave her pondering a troubling question: How can facts lie?
Bess Crawford enjoyed a wondrous childhood in India, where her father, a colonel in the British Army, was stationed on the Northwest Frontier. But an unforgettable incident darkened that happy time. In 1908, Colonel Crawford's regiment discovered that it had a murderer in its ranks, an officer who killed five people in India and England yet was never brought to trial. In the eyes of many of these soldiers, men defined by honor and duty, the crime was a stain on the regiment's reputation and on the good name of Bess's father, the Colonel Sahib, who had trained the killer.
A decade later, tending to the wounded on the battlefields of France during World War I, Bess learns from a dying Indian sergeant that the supposed murderer, Lieutenant Wade, is alive—and serving at the Front. Bess cannot believe the shocking news. According to reliable reports, Wade's body had been seen deep in the Khyber Pass, where he had died trying to reach Afghanistan. Soon, though, her mind is racing. How had he escaped from India? What had driven a good man to murder in cold blood?
Wanting answers, she uses her leave to investigate. In the village where the first three killings took place, she discovers that the locals are certain that the British soldier was innocent. Yet the present owner of the house where the crime was committed believes otherwise, and is convinced that Bess's father helped Wade flee. To settle the matter once and for all, Bess sets out to find Wade and let the courts decide.
But when she stumbles on the horrific truth, something that even the famous writer Rudyard Kipling had kept secret all his life, she is shaken to her very core. The facts will damn Wade even as they reveal a brutal reality, a reality that could have been her own fate.

Google Chrome Tips
1. Show the list of recently visited pages from the current tab: right-click on the "Back" button. This also works for the "Forward" button.
2. Undo closing a tab: press Ctrl+Shift+T or open a new tab and check the "Recently closed tabs" section.
3. Focus on the default search option in the address bar: type ? before entering your query.
4. Perform simple calculations and unit conversions using Google Calculator by simply typing the expression in Google Chrome's address bar (or "omnibox"). To copy the answer, select the suggestion.
5. If you need more space in a textarea, resize it by dragging the lower right corner.
6. Monitor the resources used by a web page - right click inside the page, select "Inspect element", switch to the "Resources" tab and reload the web page. You'll see a list of images, scripts and objects loaded from the web page and you can sort them by size or by loading time.
7. Detach a tab and open it in a new window - just drag the tab outside the active window. You can also add it back to the original window using drag and drop.
8. After downloading a file, you can copy it to the desktop or to any other folder by using drag and drop directly from Google Chrome.
9. If the search engine of a site supports OpenSearch, you can add it to Google Chrome's search box by simply visiting the site and performing a search. The domain name automatically becomes a keyword and you should only type the first letters from the URL until you see "press Tab to search example.com". Then press Tab and type your query.
You can also manually add search engines, by right-clicking on the address bar and selecting "Edit search engines". Here's one example, where you can see that you need to find the URL for the search results page and replace the query with %s:
Name - Wikipedia
Keyword - wiki (that's what you need to type in the address bar)
URL - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search?search=%s
You can also use the keywords for other kinds of services: for translating web pages, for bookmarking pages online or simply as aliases for web pages (omit "%s" from the URL).
Name - Google Translate (English)
Keyword - trans
URL - http://translate.google.com/translate?u=%s
10. Do you want Google Chrome without Google's branding and with an open source license (BSD license)? Check Chromium, the open source project created for Google Chrome. You can install the latest snapshots for Windows or download the code and build it in Windows, Mac, Linux.
To install Chromium in Windows, go to the most recent directory from this page (it should be at the top) and download mini_installer.exe. Note that these snapshots could be less stable than the version available at google.com/chrome and you may need to manually update Chromium.

I tried Chrome yesterday on parallels on a Mac (works fine). But one thing I noticed missing that was annoying (small as it might seem) was the Find in Page did not recognize links. ie, you see a link and then use find to highlight it from keyboard....but no way to open the highlighted link from the keyboard. Unless I missed it somewhere (didn't find a mention in the keyboard shortcuts in the help section). Anyway, seems like such an obvious thing that perhaps Google just hasn't put the feature in yet. For comparison, in Firefox or Opera if you do a Find in Page and highlight a link, you just press Enter to open the link. It's not a big deal, but after you get used to doing that, it's tough to go without it.
ReplyDelete Interesting problem:
I have a Intranet site which I mirror on a private site outside the company (password protected).
Display of the mirrored site works fine but the same page on the Intranet site displays only part of the page. When I View Source, it doesn't seem to have loaded the entire page.
The mirrored site is standard shared host on an MS server. The Intranet site is on virtual server.
The HTML pages seem to display okay, but ASP pages have a problem. In theory, the code presented to Chrome by the server should be vanilla HTML, but maybe Chrome is trying to look upstream and choking on something? Making server requests which respond differently in a Virtual environment?- AnonymousSeptember 4, 2008 at 1:26 PM

How can I get rid of the annnoying recent bookmark blue box ?
ReplyDelete You can use delicious or google bookmarks by dragging a bookmarklet to the Chrome bookmarks bar. For delicious get it here: del.icio.us/help/buttons, for Google bookmarks get it here: http://www.google.com/support/chrome/bin/answer.py?answer=100215&topic=14680
There is also an rss bookmarklet floating around.
For adblocking an alternative to firefox adblock plugin is the mvps.org hosts file or privoxy. http://www.fritscher.ch/blog/2008/09/03/google-chrome-adblock-with-privoxy/- AnonymousSeptember 5, 2008 at 6:49 AM

Chrome also decodes encoded URLs pasted in the Omni or whatever it's called. That can come in handy.

I wish Chrome would support such little cool extensions like QuickJist summarizer. Chrome lacks extensibility, but I would be happy if it was directly compatible with existing Mozilla or IE extensions.

Any idea what Google Chrome did with my imported bookmarks??
can't find them!! - AnonymousSeptember 5, 2008 at 3:17 PM
My wife and I both downloaded chrome, her computer is xp and mine vista premium. On Pogo.com we are unable to play the game. It says we need a java plugin, directs us to the java page to download, we download and install (already have latest java), close and reopen browser and receive the same result (java plugin) Any help would be appreciated.
ReplyDelete Here's what I really miss: in IE one can save bookmarks in the 'root'-bookmarks. When typing that name in the address-bar it sees this name as a shortcut and so you can jump very easily to the site you of your choice.
I.e.: I want to save the Beatles' biography which is on www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/ Therefor I save this bookmark as 'beatles' in IE. Next time when I type beatles in the address-bar of IE it suggests this bookmark. When I hit the enter-button it goes directly to the sing365-site.
Because FireFox lacks this superb trick I've always refused to use FireFox. So it would be great if Chrome would introduce this possibility too.
Mark Coutinho@Mark:
You should learn more about other browsers. Firefox lets you define "keywords" for bookmarks that can be used in the address bar. Too bad that Firefox 3 made this option incredibly difficult to find: you need to go to "Organize bookmarks", select the bookmark and click on the "More" button. Then you can enter a keyword for the bookmark.
Probably this feature is not very useful now that Firefox 3 indexes your bookmarks and the recently visited sites, so you can just type some letters from the title. More about AwesomeBar.
Google Chrome also has a way to define "keywords" by adding search engines (I explained this in the post) and it also suggests sites from your browsing history in the address bar.- AnonymousSeptember 6, 2008 at 8:55 AM

Use delicious, or as Google Chrome is trying to tell you.. forget bookmark management.. let chrome index those bookmarks for you.. when one day you need it just type a keyword and let Chrome do its thing.

Maybe it's cause you had hundreds of bookmarks NOT neatly organized into folders that you couldn't find anything. What do you think labels are for?
What's "delicious" besides bookmarks? (and extra things I don't need...)
I've been waiting for Google to officially make a condescending statement pretty much like that before I stop using their services entirely.
Until then, second the bookmarks request. (not that it makes difference here) I don't think they need to add "Google Toolbar" though, because they can incorporate most of it's features into the browser as standard. :-) - AnonymousSeptember 9, 2008 at 3:07 PM

Wonderful Job, Google! C'est la perfecto!
However, the ONLY thing that keeps me to IE is that IE can SAVE BOOKMARKS IN THE HARDDRIVE! Yes, yes, i know, saving bookmarks online is all the rage these days, however it will be nice to have the option to save it on your local harddrive.....
God knows how early i would have dumped IE if only Firefox or Opera or Safari can let me have THE option...I really hope Google incoperates this into Chrome......... - AnonymousSeptember 10, 2008 at 10:12 AM
And something else besides the bookmark....
Chrome seems to have problem with videos, as the processor usage shoots up to 100% whenever I youtube, compared to about 80%-90% on IE...
And the download part, Chrome manages VERY WELL with small files, but faces a big problem when facing files of 30MB or 50MB. Those kind of files I usually leave them to my bt engine to take care of, but it seems Chrome does not support plug-ins?(I'm using Thunder)
Hope Google looks into these ASAP

I don't notice the violent hard drive thrashing after unchecking "Enable phishing and malware protection" under Options/Under the Hood/Security. Apparently Chrome continuously downloads the database of blocked pages when you have it enabled.
@Uchiha Itachi...
From the bug reports I've read, the problems with Flash & video are known by Google and will probably be fixed soon. (We can hope anyway...) According to a Chrome engineer...
"The SafeBrowsing feature (anti-malware, anti-phishing) periodically updates its
blacklists from Google servers every 30 minutes or so. The data is stored in the file "Safe Browsing", which will get to about 50 MB in size."
I should add that Google Desktop and Firefox 3 have a similar feature that uses the same Safe Browsing API. Until they improve the implementation, I disabled the feature in Google Desktop, Firefox and Chrome.- AnonymousSeptember 13, 2008 at 4:40 PM

Several people here want the Google tool bar. When you add it, please leave me a way to turn it off. (Or better, Delete it.)
I went to a secure site that opens a log in pop up. Needless to say, I could not get in. Chrome squashed my log in box.
Full screen would be nice (Like F11 in IE.). I use it all the time.
How do I turn OFF the suggested pages in the "Omni Box". I generaly know where I want to go; and If I don't I'll ask. I'm sure this is a handy feature for some, but for me it's an annoyance. A way to disable it would be nice.
What's with all the hard drive activity?
An integrated user help would be nice I like documentation I don't have to go online for.
Opening videos and flash to full screen with one click would be nice.
I know you want to keep this simple, but more control over the browser in the options box like IE, FF, and Opera would be nice.
The Help file would not add to the resource drain... Other than that, adding all of the features everyone wants without eating up resources is a challenge. Keep it Small, Keep It Fast, uncluttered, and gi'me all my bells and whistles.

"Chrome minimizes pop-up windows at the bottom of the page, so you can easily make them visible."
This isn't the optimal solution for many of us with many sites.
For example at school I have to log into the system in a browser, then a pop up window comes up that keeps me logged in until I close it. The problem is the window redirects in less than 5 seconds so if I'm not quick, I miss the pop up because the window has redirected.
It would be much better if we could allow some sites to just have legitimate popups. - AnonymousOctober 31, 2008 at 10:48 AM

Your browser sucks without autofill, and you don't even freaking support your own toolbar application in any form. Are you actually a company or just a bunch of hippies who hate Microsoft and help the commies suppress free speech outside the US? I'm about over Google at this point...
ReplyDelete As a long time user of just about everything Google, and as an instructor/educator in Apps, it appears to me the Chrome is built around the more finely developed user, such as myself, for example. If the autofill feature is important, use Mozilla. For online apps, no thanks, I will stick with Chrome. Just for a heads-up, Autofill is a pain when dictating to a web page.
ReplyDeleteAll modern browser include feed discovery and feed preview (IE7, Firefox 2, Opera 9.5, Safari 3) and these basic features will be added to Chrome in the next months. I don't think Chrome will include a feed reader, it will merely make it easier to use services like Google Reader, Netvibes, Bloglines or desktop feed readers.
If you use Google Reader, go to Settings/Goodies/Subscribe as you surf and drag the subscribe bookmarklet to Chrome's bookmarks bar (Ctrl+B to make it visible).- AnonymousJanuary 19, 2009 at 11:17 AM
Google Chrome is a wonderful product. I'm mostly happy with it. Few things:
1) Would be nice if it was capable of incorporating Real's video download as I download vids and tear 'em up and remake some.
2) Would be WONDERFUL if they would read this, and make it possible for us to make -every- tab pull up like we wanted (in my case the about:blank screen) as opposed to automatically showing "Most Visited", "Recent Bookmarks", and your "Recently Closed" tabs.
3) Would also be nice if they made it possible to pull up the "Incognito" w/out having to start chrome normally. Just click a shortcut to incognito and boom - much faster. - AnonymousJanuary 20, 2009 at 5:31 AM

Also a tip for Ebayers like myself- Google Chrome causes issues when you are filling in text descriptions describing your items for sale on Ebay. It doesn't load all of Ebay's features like allowing you to resize, align or use colred text in your auction descriptions.
When I am setting up new auctions (or trying to do relists or "edit your item description" I open an Internet Explorer window and go onto Ebay and can do it. For VIEEWING Ebay Google Chrome works great. For filling in things and changing auction text try switching to Internet Explorer, tried and true.
Hopefully Google will fix this VERY IMPORTANT ISSUE FOR EBAYERS GALORE! I've read a number of others' comments on other sites who experienced the same problem on Ebay using Chrome. I know they can fix this in the future!!!Thanks, Google! - AnonymousJanuary 21, 2009 at 4:03 PM

Hey all,
Liking Google Chrome in general - good work so far!
Am stuck running a PIII 600mhz HP Omnibook with 256Mb Ram and Chrome is sooooo much faster than IE7!
I do miss:
1) Mouse Gestures (ala Opera and IE7 Pro)
2) Saving tab groups in one easy step - sometimes you need to restart after a windows update (or close a dozen pages to save resources momentarily) - I just don't like creating bookmarks for these and just want to shove a quick shortcut onto my desktop temporarily. Not a big fan of bookmarks, 90% of the time they are so old I forgot why I created them!

I know Chrome is all about minimalism, but I miss my addons! I want to be notified when I have new (G)mail, and I want to be able to Tweet from my browser while I do other things (a la TwitterFox).
ReplyDelete I did find if you just click the hell out of a link, it will pop it up in another tab, and I do mean click the hell out of it, as fast as you can, as much as you can until tendinitis is just about to set in. For instance, I like to look at the lyrics on Pandora songs I am listening to, but whats that?? yes, that's right, the link is designated a popup because of how it was coded. I just "click the hell" out of it and eventually I guess I manage to get past the popup blocker or something, and it eventually comes up. Thanks google, there are some really cool things about chrome, but this not one of them. It appears Google Gears would have a way to add "trusted site". There is even a an apply button that is grayed out, as if something could possibly be done in this dialogue box that would require you to "apply" it. Not so. I will revert to firefox for the time being.
Everyone who is crying for autofill will never get it. This is because autofill is no longer useful in chrome. Just type your text in the omnibar to find what you are looking for. Autofill in the omnibar would ruin its utility.
Please, stop complaining about your bookmarks. No one should be using any browser based system for bookmarks any longer. Please switch everything to del.ici.ous - if you don't know what it is, look it up. Delicious is the solution to all of your bookmarking problems - weather you have a few dozen or a few hundred bookmarks, this system is far far superior to everything else on the market. It relies on a system of tags, instead of folders which are an antiquated system which is nearly impossible to manage. Would it be possible to create a system such as Mozilla's Ubiquity for bookmarking? This is an even better alternative to delicious, many of us feel.
I generally run chrome with between 20 and 40 tabs open simultaneously in one window on Windows Vista 32-bit with no problems. Everything runs smoothly and much faster startup, new tabs, everything is faster than IE, even on my dual core processor there is a significant difference.
Google Chrome does NOT support opening PDFs from the web in a browser tab. This is terribly annoying for anyone who is in science or engineering, and needs to always read pdfs on the fly without dloading them. Please solve this problem ASAP. Forces me to use multiple browsers.- AnonymousApril 2, 2009 at 10:26 AM
I like Chrome a lot. Two things that bug me:
1) I miss some of the options from the Google toolbar of all things. Such as search within a site (I know that that can be done in the address bar, but the button was nice).
2) It would be nice to have some control over helper applications, and how they work. I personally dislike windows media player opening in the Chrome window. I prefer it to launch on its own. Is there any way of scrolling through your history using just the mouse? In firefox I can just click the little downwards arrow on the extreme right of the address bar and scroll through my history without touching the keyboard. Is there any way of doing that in chrome?
Sometimes when I'm on the net and doing something else at the same time I want to be able to browse using just the mouse!- AnonymousMay 13, 2009 at 5:35 PM
the lack of fast PDF loading is a big problem; definitely share the feelings of M Engel on 4/1
ReplyDelete firefox is always better in my openion with lots of powerfull extensions. if you want faster browser apple safari is the best as of now, Google chrome is also better when compare to IE. but still google chrome need to go long way to catch firefox. Intresting this is firefox project is supported by google mainly.

Farm fencing is mostly done to keep farm animals inside secured premises. Animals stray easily and it is very necessary to keep them within a closed environment. There are different kinds of fencing options that you can use for farm fencing that include aluminium fencing, wrought iron fencing and steel wire fencing. The best type to choose will mostly depend upon the kind of animals you have in your farm. The area of the farm is also another factor for determining the final fencing option. It is also important to consider the weather in Wills because you will need to choose the material according to the weather conditions. Ensure that the fencing materials can withstand harsh weather conditions.
Choosing weak and unreliable material will cause the animals to stray. Always choose a high quality and strong material that can serve you for a long time.
