Archbishops endorse Abbey's First World War vigil liturgy
Friday, 27th June 2014
The Archbishops of Canterbury and York have endorsed Westminster Abbey's liturgy for churches planning to mark the centenary of the outbreak of the First World War.
Drawing upon the British Foreign Secretary's Sir Edward Grey's famous remark that 'the lamps are going out all over Europe', the Abbey will hold a candlelit vigil at 10.00pm on Monday 4th August, which will be televised live on BBC2. The Abbey will move from light into darkness until one candle remains at the Grave of the Unknown Warrior, which will be extinguished at 11.00pm marking the exact moment of the declaration of war.
It is hoped that churches, community groups and other faith communities will hold their own vigils and the Abbey has published advice and resources to assist with planning these services.
The Most Reverend and Right Honourable Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury said:
The centenary of the outbreak of the First World War raises a confusion of emotions and memories. I encourage you to use the resources which Westminster Abbey has prepared so thoughtfully to help you to pray, to lift both the beauty and the agony of that sacrifice to God. A vigil provides an opportunity to hold before God what we know and do not yet know, in a language we can borrow and share. Through these words we are joined with others across the country and down the years to honour those "who love the greater love // [who] lay down their life" (Wilfred Owen), as with Jesus the crucified one.
+Justin Cantuar
The Most Reverend and Right Honourable Dr John Sentamu, Archbishop of York said:
The centenary of the outbreak of the First World War is both a solemn duty and an opportunity to reflect, one hundred years later, on the folly of war and the horrific human suffering it involves. Sadly our prayers will not just be those of distant remembrance – violent conflict is a brutal reality today. We must pledge ourselves afresh to seek peace and do all we can to prevent the bloodshed which so scars our humanity, and bruises the image of God in all his children. I commend these prayers and resources to parishes and indeed local churches of all denominations as they plan to mark this important time.
+Sentamu Eboracensis
The Dean of Westminster, the Very Reverend Dr John Hall, said:
The last months have seen a great many television programmes and books about the First World War and fresh thinking about the causes and conduct of the war. There will be time later in the centenary to ponder the impact of the war itself on the local communities that make up the United Kingdom, Europe and the world and on the sacrifice of so many young lives. The centenary of the outbreak of the war will be a time in humility and repentance to face up to the failure of the human spirit that prevented international differences being resolved diplomatically and led to the inexorable slide towards war. The texts for the Vigil in Westminster Abbey are freely available for every church and worshipping community to adopt or adapt. Alternatively they can assemble for worship and join the Abbey congregation via television. I pray that the Vigil will help us, as today we ponder the reasons for our failures to preserve peace.

- 4 Bartlett pears
- 2 tablespoons vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Streusel Topping:
- 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup cranberries
- 1/2 cup whipping cream, beaten to soft peaks
- Unsalted butter, at room temperature, granulated and sugar, for the baking dish
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Peel the pears and cut them in 1/2 through the stem end. Use a melon baller to scoop out the cores. Put the pear halves in a large bowl. Sprinkle over the vanilla; toss. Then sprinkle over the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg and toss to coat the pears with the flavorings. Line the pears up in a buttered, sugared baking dish, rounded sides up.
In the same bowl, mash together the butter, brown sugar, flour, and salt with your hands for the topping. Toss in the cranberries. Crumble the topping mixture over the pears in the baking dish and bake until the topping is crunchy and browned and the pears are very tender, 35 to 40 minutes. Serve with whipped cream.
Results: I subbed peaches for pears since I had those on hand (frozen but I defrosted them before use). Use only one hand to mash together the topping. UGH!!! I may never make this recipe again because I hate having dirty hands!! It was impressive-looking but that was really appalling to me. I thought the topping would be more crumbly. This was also extremely sweet so I might cut down on the sugar next time I make this if there's a next time. On the plus side, it tasted really good! The tartness of the cran worked as a nice balance to the sugaryness of everything else.

I made this simple, easy turquoise necklace this summer, and it's been a go-to piece for me ever since. Here's how:
1. Pick up some Turquoise Nuggets. I only needed one strand for this necklace.
2. String them onto some flexible beading wire. Make sure to give yourself enough room on each end to finish it off.
3. Add a round silver bead or two (depending on the desired length) to each end.
4. Finish it off with a crimp tube on each end and a toggle clasp.
5. Now you're ready to give (or wear) your new turquoise necklace.
I've actually worn it dozens of times, and it still hasn't fallen apart! Seriously, if I can do it, anyone can!

Not enough for a IV.
A Slashdot post led me to I Found Some Of Your Life. Apparently, the blog author found a digital media card left in a taxi and is posting the 227 photos, in order, one a day for 227 days. The whole premise is quite amusing and well worth a quick gander. Or a goose.
Another Slashdot post mentions "that a hydrogen thermonuclear bomb lost off the Georgia coast in 1958 may have been found." People of Georgia rejoice.
That's it for now. Maybe more. Maybe later. Maybe not.

They've had 29 runs that went for no gain or negative yards, a big reason Kubiak punted on fourth-and-1 at the Oakland 44 with two minutes left.
Actually, Manning is off to his worst start since his rookie season. But there's plenty of blame to go around.
The Broncos are unbeaten because they own the league's best and deepest defense, one that's collected 22 sacks and 14 takeaways and was unaffected when its best player, DeMarcus Ware, left Sunday's win at Oakland with a bad back that's expected to keep him out of next weekend's game at Cleveland, too.
They're 5-0 because of a special teams unit that has blocked two kicks and features the NFL's best kicker in Brandon McManus, who has four field goals of 52-plus yards.
Tyler Polumbus, who played 33 snaps at left tackle in relief of a banged-up Ryan Harris (25 snaps), said the Broncos' early season struggles in their first year under Kubiak are understandable.
Tight end Owen Daniels said he's confident things will soon start clicking "just because of the guys that we have, the players that we have in the room. We're hard on ourselves in terms of how we play and pretty critical of ourselves. So, we're going to keep on working. This group's not afraid to put in the work to get better."
The solution isn't inserting backup quarterback Brock Osweiler,Cheap Wholesale Jerseys, as a radio reporter wondered.
The problem is an offense than ranks 30th in the league.
"I think in coaching you're always searching for perfection and obviously we're far from it," Kubiak said. "We've got some tremendous things going on defensively and we're battling offensively right now. But it's hard to win in this league, and I've been doing it long enough to know you'd better appreciate it."
The Broncos moved the ball well through the air between the 20s in their 16-10 win at Oakland on Sunday, their NFL-record-extending 14th straight divisional road victory,NFL Jerseys From China, but Manning was picked off in the end zone and Demaryius Thomas and Ronnie Hillman both dropped passes in the end zone.
Taking a page from the Colts' playoff win at Denver last year, teams have been daring Manning to hit deep sideline passes, and he's been unable to do so often enough, either overthrowing Emmanuel Sanders or underthrowing Thomas like he did Sunday when Charles Woodson recorded his second interception of the game.
Peyton Manning has more interceptions (seven) than TD throws (six) and is playing behind a patchwork O-line that's surrendered a dozen sacks so far and can't bore holes for a ground game that's averaging 71.6 yards a game.
"You're damn right I am,China NFL Jerseys," Denver's first-year coach responded during a Monday news conference dominated by questions about an offense that's making too many mistakes and not enough yards or points.
Are you able to enjoy this 5-0 start,Cheap Jerseys China? he was asked.
"No," Kubiak said curtly. "Peyton's doing just fine."
"I've been around this offense for a long time and it always takes guys time to get used to that run-zone scheme,China Adidas Hockey Jerseys," he said. "And I've yet to be a part of this scheme where it hasn't finally started to click. So,Cheap Jerseys, I'm confident that it will here also."
So, teams have stacked the box, making it all the harder for the running backs to find lanes and yards.
"We know that once they start clicking, it's going to be over."
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Peppered with questions that made it seem like the unbeaten Broncos were winless — like whether he'd consider benching his five-time MVP quarterback to fix his sputtering offense — Gary Kubiak welcomed the reprieve.
Chris Harris Jr., whose pick-6 sealed Denver's victory Sunday, said the star-studded defense believes the offense is "going to pick it up. We have faith in Peyton. We all have faith in him. We know it's not just him. We know we need to get the run game going, get everybody going.

Coordinating Pricing, Ordering and Advertising for Perishable Products Over an Infinite Horizon
- 100 Downloads
Numerous empirical studies show that advertising effort can stimulate demand in both current and future periods, and there is an interaction between pricing, advertising and ordering decisions. How do these decisions interact with each other and what is the effect of advertising on pricing and ordering decisions? To understand this interaction, we consider a newsvendor-type firm that sells a perishable product in a stable market and dynamically determines the joint ordering, pricing and advertising strategies. The problem is modeled as an infinite horizon newsvendor problem with an advertising carryover effect and price-sensitive demand. We characterize the optimal pricing, advertising and inventory strategies and their comparative statics, and consider how this policy differs from the traditional approach without the advertising effect. We show that the optimal effective advertising level is monotonically increasing with the effective advertising level in the previous period, and hence the optimal strategies (advertising, pricing, inventory level) globally converge to the steady states in the long run. We numerically show that the optimal policy can reap significant profit, which underscores the importance of the advertising-driven ordering and pricing strategies.

WASHINGTON -- To cut the federal deficit, you've either got to raise taxes or cut spending, right? Well, here's another option: getting rid of tax loopholes that will cost the federal government more than $400 billion this year.
Every time Congress grants one group of taxpayers a special break on what they would otherwise owe, it costs the federal government.
For example, doing away with the income tax deduction for interest on home mortgage payments would save the federal government $48 billion a year -- almost as much as President Clinton wants to raise in new taxes.

Photo of the Month – December 2009
[written by KopiOkaya]
[photo: Sgsoonhoe] Fujifilm FinePix F70EXR
This image from Sgsoonhoe truly deserves to be the Photo of the Month for December 2009. No doubt it is a little soft and its white balance off, but these are not important. The image not only incorporates the festivity mood, but above all, it cleverly captures the significance and essence of family togetherness and motherly-love. This is a heart-warming image which reaches deep within our hearts and bring back memories of our own mothers and families during the holiday seasons. Furthermore, it is all about the right mood and excellent timing. Soon Hoe composed and clicked his FinePix F70EXR at the exact moment, which appropriately captured the mother and child, as well as the excited and enthusiastic father (seen from the reflection of the silver orb). This image is timeless and meaningful not only to that family, but to us – the viewers, too.
Suggestions on how to improve this image:
- Zoom or move backwards a bit to include more of the baby's feet
- Remove the 'high voltage' label
- Make the ambient light a tad bit warmer
- Image can do with a bit of sharpening (but not too much)
Readers are encouraged to give your suggestions on how to improve the image (please be polite and comment constructively).

In this clip, robots re-enact the famous 'Royale With Cheese' scene from the movie "Pulp Fiction". I could make some joke about how you can't tell the difference between John Travolta and a robot, but you'll probably be able to tell.

My many readers (bon soir, Uncle Fergie and Aunt Di) know that a while back, a long while back in this blog, I went on about an overcoat. To recap briefly, after the fashion of Tommy Lee Jones in The Fugitive and Jerry Seinfeld in his tv show, I wanted an overcoat. It had to be long--so long, as it turned out, I had to have one custom made. I love the coat and wouldn't mind putting it on right now on this chilly evening in Tangier.
Anyway, earlier today I was minding my own business in the Grand Socco, the plaza just outside the medina, when I saw my overcoat on a Moroccan man. Smaller coat, smaller man, but there it was, wasn't it? I took a picture over my shoulder.
That's the nearest mosque in the background, by the way. I wondered if I should make something more of seeing this coat, beyond the fact that the old guy found it the medina somewhere, where you can find anything. After a while he took off.
I did too. Now there's a problem with my bank card, which means I have to cut this short (the opposite of what I ordered for my coat) and see what I can do. Uncle Fergie and Aunt Di, if you get an emergency call in the middle of the night, please answer it.

In a debate, recorded in 1977, Thomas Szasz and Albert Ellis argue over the concept of mental illness. Szasz argues forcefully and humorously for his position that mental illness is a sort of metaphor for problems in life. Albert Ellis maintains that mental illness is a useful concept that should not be dismissed.

A Natural News Forensic Food Lab investigation has discovered that Ginkgo Biloba herbs imported from China contain shockingly high levels of the toxic heavy metal lead.
Click here to see the full lab results at Labs.NaturalNews.com.
Click here to watch the lab research video on YouTube.
These results show that some brands of ginkgo contain virtually zero lead, while others are heavily contaminated with lead, a toxic heavy metal linked to cancer, bone disorders and impaired brain function in children (among other side effects).
Ginkgo herbs imported from China heavily contaminated with lead
ICP-MS testing at our labs showed that Ginkgo Biloba herbs imported from China and sold by the bulk herbal company Starwest Botanicals (1) contained over 5 ppm lead, a shockingly high number that's ten times higher than the lead we've found in rice protein products. This level of lead contamination rates an "F" at www.LowHeavyMetalsVerified.org
Because Starwest is such a reputable supplier of quality products, it is my hope the company will conduct more in-house testing of the products they sell and reject herbs which are heavily contaminated with lead and other toxic metals. They may want to rate their herbal products using the system I've published at www.LowHeavyMetalsVerified.org
At the same time, Ginkbo Biloba herbal supplements sold by the Gaia Herbs company (2) and grown in the USA showed almost zero lead. I've tested many products from Gaia Herbs and so far they've all been remarkably free of heavy metals.
Standardized Ginkgo Biloba supplements purchased at the Whole Foods headquarters in Austin, Texas also showed virtually zero lead contamination. This is good news, considering that other products sold by Whole Foods, including rice protein products, are consistently contaminated with toxic heavy metals.
Ginkgo supplements offered under the brand names Nutrigold, Nature's Bounty and Swanson also showed very little lead in our testing, while Ginkgo leaf products from Frontier and Ginkgo Biloba supplements from NOW Foods showed significantly higher concentrations of lead. Keep in mind that we can only speak to the lot numbers we tested, and other lots may vary significantly from the lots we purchased.
Click here to see the complete lab results at Labs.NaturalNews.com.
Lead is a toxic heavy metal linked to cancer, brain damage, bone damage and more
Lead is toxic to human biology and the science on the harmful effects of lead is irrefutable: lead causes lowered IQs in children, bone disorders, cognitive decline in adults and even contributes to cancer. Click here to learn more about lead contamination.
The fact that such high levels of lead are found in an herbal product which many people take to enhance their cognitive function is downright alarming. Even if the Ginkgo Biloba herb does function as promised, the accumulation of lead in the body may cause precisely the opposite effect intended by those taking the herb. Lead can diminish brain function and literally make you cognitively impaired.
Click here to learn more about the damage caused by lead.
How much ginkgo would you have to take to cause a problem? Consider this: California Prop. 65 limits daily lead intake to just 0.5 micrograms from any one dietary supplement. If you took just one gram of ginkgo lead containing 5 ppm lead, you would ingest over 1,000% more lead than allowed per day under Prop 65. For someone taking contaminated herbs on a daily basis, the total intake of lead over a month or a year can be extremely alarming and possibly very harmful to their health.
How does lead get into Ginkgo herbs?
Lead appears in ginkgo herbs because of industrial contamination of soils and irrigation water used to grow ginkgo herbs in countries like China. Ginkgo, like many other herbs, absorbs lead and other heavy metals during plant growth. When soils are contaminated from industrial fallout or contaminated irrigation water, that contamination inevitably ends up in the plants grown in those soils.
Click here to watch my video explaining industrial contamination of soils and irrigation water.
China is so heavily polluted with toxic heavy metals that the Chinese government recently declassified a once-secret report admitting that 20% of the country's farms are heavily contaminated with toxic heavy metals like lead, cadmium and arsenic.
We are now seeing this contamination appearing in superfoods, herbal supplements and other health products imported from China. While lead contamination cannot be detected with the naked eye, it cannot escape detection by the high-end ICP-MS atomic spectroscopy instrumentation used in the Natural News Forensic Food Lab. Our instrumentation is identical to the instrumentation used at university labs and even by the FDA.
Natural News has also found alarming lead contamination in organic rice protein products grown in China and other nations, then sold in the USA as "raw, organic rice protein" at health food retailers like Whole Foods.
Should you stop taking Ginkgo Biloba herbs?
In a nutshell, no. Ginkgo Biloba is a very effective herb, but you need to make sure the ginkgo you're taking is clean. I support clean herbal supplements and have written about their benefits for years. Here are some tips for getting clean herbs:
Tip #1) Subscribe to my email newsletter (below) and you'll receive daily email alerts with breaking news on herbs and superfoods found to be either clean or contaminated with heavy metals.
Tip #2) Check the lab results at the Natural News Forensic Food Labs and see what our tests have discovered. We publish these results for free, in the public interest, to help enhance food safety and public awareness.
Tip #3) Ask the manufacturer! To find out how much lead is in a product you've purchased, call the manufacturer and give them the lot number printed on the product. They should be able to tell you the heavy metals testing results for each lot number. (Under FDA regulations, they are required to have heavy metals tests on file for each production lot, although there are no FDA limits regarding how high levels metals are allowed to be in products other than children's candy.)
If the manufacturer can't tell you the heavy metals levels found in their products, that's a huge red warning flag that you should probably stop buying products from that company. After all, if they aren't testing their own products, how can they possibly know what's in them? (And isn't it highly irresponsible to sell products to the public without testing them yourself first?)
Keep watching Natural News for more heavy metals testing results on popular foods, superfoods, herbal supplements and more.

Wow, my blog has been so neglected lately. I have great plans and think of blog posts I need to make and then get up in the morning and am pulled 17 different ways before eight o'clock, and that's the QUIET part of my day! LOL
I was talking with a friend about school this year. I'm not gonna lie - three kids, three different curriculums, three different Heart of Dakota programs going makes for a BUSY day. Add in the fact that these little darlings think they should eat at regular intervals and want to wear clean clothes and such, and something has to give a bit. Apparently that something is blogging.
I really do enjoy blogging though. I love to look back through old posts and seeing how the kids have grown and what we were doing a couple of years ago. I completely dropped off the Project 365 bandwagon. After Troy died and then having surgery a couple of weeks later, I just couldn't keep up. I will say - I did P365 for 2009 and 2010, and although it's nice having all of those pictures, it's been nice to take my camera when I want to rather than feeling obligated to come up with some sort of picture for the day.
I do have some fun pictures for a week in review post (um yeah ... I know ... MONTH in review at this point) that include a couple of field trips we've done recently. They are on my laptop - and that's another blogging hindrance. The girls use my laptop for a couple of their classes, which means my laptop time is reduced.
(Um. Retitling this post: in which Melanie makes a bunch of excuses.)
Hopefully I'll get some laptop time and will be able to do a couple of field trip posts! Plus we've had a few cute snack days and other fun stuff.

Last Saturday, a coworker invited myself and another coworker to climb Old Rag Mountain. It's just a nice hike with a great view and going with friends should make it a good time. Well, we decided to meet at his place early in the morning to get to the mountain early to beat any crowds. We also picked up another guy from work so we had two veterans and two noobs.
It was such a great hike, though it wore me out! There were a few things I did wrong and I had excuses but some things I knew better.
I wore pants (because I thought it would be colder but they came in handy when scrambling, protecting my knees), I wore a cotton long sleeve shirt (once again, thought it would be cold but I had nothing else, but it was light. my wicking shirt reeked from running, never washed it so couldn't wear that), I should have brought some more water (I got so darn thirsty!)... I think that's it.
Back to the hike. It started out well enough. A quick pace though. And it's pretty much all uphill. A few flat spots but really I was just working the entire time. We stopped for a quick break over a lookout but packed up and moved on. I was fine through all of that.
Then we hit the scrambling. It was borderline bouldering at spots. That's what got me. I had to take little breaks for myself. Man was I not ready for this much of a workout. I am starting to run again but this was just too different for me to be very ready for it.
We got to the spot where we were going to rappel and gosh that felt good. Finally taking a substantial break and being near the top the breeze was fantastic. I found myself some shade and kicked back. I felt bad for holding the other guys up but there were times I just didn't want to push myself. I'd really rather enjoy it instead of truly bonking.
Rappelling was a blast and the hike back up wasn't bad. I didn't feel nervous at all and I thought I would! But I had faith in Dennis hooking everything up right. Climbing is his main sport and he had safety's in space. He also was an Army Ranger so I think he knows a few things about knots and stuff.
Then moving on toward the summit. I just got steeper and steeper, having to scramble over boulders. When we eventually made it I got my energy back. Took a few pics and then it was time to head down. Let's get off this rock!
Heading back down, a different way though, wasn't bad at all. Though walking downhill that long really make you adjust your walk so your legs don't get sore! It was almost as hard as going up because of all the control needed.
We ran into a lot of people on our way down and some said that if we saw the bear to just scare it away. Yeah, they have a good number of black bears up here. But they are mostly afraid of people. Although, Dennis said he talked to some climbers recently that ran into a bear and it stood its ground instead of retreating. That's not a good sign. But we never saw it anyway.
Then after hopping in the creek to cool off (that cold water really brings your core temp down!) we were on our way back home.
It was a great day. Got some great exercise and had some great "bonding" with the guys. I'm sure we'll do it again, or at least I will. Maybe when Josh comes to town.

The mandibles of stag beetles have sensors that communicate which portions of the mandible are engaged and the stress that is applied. The stag beetle uses information from the sensors in the madibles to adjust the muscular force. The tips are often thinner than the base and the stress is greatest. If only the tips are engaged, the beetle applies less force to his mandibles than if the more robust mid section of the mandible is enaged. Thus, the beetle adjusts the muscular force on the madibles to balance the grip on the opponent with the need to avoid damage.

finally, it's been warm enough in portland for the tomatoes to ripen. and i found enough purslane (baqle) to make another salatat baqle with fresh garden ripe tomatoes instead of canned. check out the photos from my earlier post before the tomatoes were ready!
and yet today started out cold and rainy. i'm tempted to get a sweater and make some hot soup! the sun's trying to come out. and i'm grateful for the beautiful figs that have finally started ripening a month late, and grateful we're not having heat waves, floods, or droughts. grateful for the summer just as it is.

For heavy smockers suffering from emphazemathis could be a fix.
The heart can be stopped right? So from the 20 or 30 or so minutes when everything comes to a screeching halt, why can't they fill the guy's lungs with an organic solvent, let it soak for5 minutes. Turn the guy upside down, drain the stuff out and refill with good clean medicinal water, flush again (sounds like a recipe!).
The lungs can take it evidence rescusination of drowning victims. The tar in the lungs is solible, sort of like a creosote. There would be a risk in having too much pressure on the emphazeme cells because they are delicate, so experimentation would have to determine the right dosage of solvent and time span.
The flush would clean out the lungs plus kill off any tubercul bacteria or pneumonia viruses in the meantime.
I'm no expert, but am I off base with this?
I think people need to realize that smoking is a killer. If you smoke you will die and it'll be a horrible coughing spitting nasty kind of death.
Oh as a side note. Have you ever been around someone who's given up smoking when the tar starts coming up? Most of the times its just little black specs but my mother brought up some amazing hunks of nasty. She quit 10 years ago and MY health improved. I wish Dad could quit...
The best way to prevent lung disease is to not smoke in the first place. A LOT cheaper too!
How does oxygen transfer occur when there is no circulation? Cells in proximity to the lungs would pick up the oxygen, but couldn't go anywhere since the heart is not pumping. Seems like an opportune time to work on lung damage.Sorta like working on the carb when the engine is dismantled! (ha)
I know zilch about medical stuff, just wondering.
The problem is, the dead lung cells come up with everything else!!! They kinda vacuume it out.
BTW, oxy will NOT explode like some think! You have to add something to it for it to burn, and if that happens then the oxy makes the fire hotter. (like acetelene) sp?
1. Organic solvents dissolve organic material - like lungs.
2. I think the alveoli undergo phsyiological changes on a cellular basis as a result of exposure to those carcinogens so its not simply a matter of removing the soot.
3. Organic solvents themselves are carcinogens.
Yeah, I see your point but wouldn't it give the lungs a better chance anyway not having all that junk in there. Coughing would lessen because the body wouldn't be expending energy in trying to expel what it can't get rid of, and viruses/bact would see a cleaner environment.?
I don't have any medical background, but was just wondering.
Like another poster said, its easier just to not smoke. Barring that it would be easier just to get a lung transplant.

Why iPhone X Gets Hot Quickly and How to Fix to It with 7 Ways
"I noticed that the back of my iPhone X gets hot pretty fast. As soon as I start to do stuff on it, its a matter of seconds before it gets quite hot."
Experiencing the brand new glass screen, A11 processor and AR technology of iPhone X/10 is definitely a wonderful thing, however, you may not be happy to find all these lead to iPhone X getting hot and battery draining. Many users complained that iPhone X overheats while charging or using. This article will analyze the possible causes and solutions to prevent the overheating issues.
- Part 1: Why Does iPhone X Get Hot and Drain the Battery?
- Part 2: How to Stop iPhone X from Overheating?
Part 1: Why Does iPhone X Get Hot and Drain the Battery?
There are actually external and internal reasons that cause iPhone X heats up quickly. Putting your iPhone X under direct sunlight or in a closed car will definitely rise the temperature and make the device warmer, also the pocket cling to your body plays a part, so you should avoid leaving your iPhone in a hot environment.
The internal cause of an overheating iPhone X is mainly due to the overloaded processor and design. For one thing, if you are playing graphically advanced games like Pokemon Go or watching HD videos from YouTube, you are likely to see iPhone X heating up while using since the A11 CPU is taxed all the time. For another, the glass case is a terrible insulator that retains all the heat inside.
Part 2: How to Stop iPhone X from Overheating?
After knowing why your iPhone X gets hot fast, the next thing to do is trying possible iPhone X overheating fixes until you resolve this issue. Physical methods like removing the phone shell, stop using iPhone X when charging, are much easier to be applied, so you are good to try them before moving to below 7 ways.
Way 1: Force Reboot iPhone X
When you notice iPhone X is getting hot and the battery is draining insanely fast when using, the first attempt is to force restart your device and refresh the system. To do this, quickly press and release the volume-up button then the volume-down button and keep holding the side button until the Apple logo shows.
Way 2: Disable Background App Refresh
Turning off background app refresh has made a big difference for some users to cool down overheated iPhone X. Go to Settings > General > Background App Refresh and switch it off. Or you can selectively decide which apps to use cellular data in the background.
Way 3: Turn off Bluetooth and Airdrop
With Bluetooth and Airdrop always on, your device will always keep active and the processor is revved up, therefore it makes some sense that iPhone X gets burning hot. To stop using these programs, simply swipe down from the upper right corner of screen and tap to close.
Way 4: Reset All Settings
Resetting system settings can fix most of glitches, and hopefully it can work with your heating up iPhone X. Navigate to Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings. Then your device will be restored to default settings.
Way 5: Remove Large Apps
A force quit of apps cannot fundamentally solve iPhone X heating issue, so you can consider completely deleting programs that take up too much CPU usage. A simple reference is on Settings > Battery, where you can see the detailed battery usage of each app.
Way 6: Update iOS Version
New software update always contains bug fixes and improvements. If iPhone X overheating issues frequently occur, Apple will try to resolve it in the latest iOS update. Either OTA or iTunes allows you to update to latest iOS 11 version.
Way 7: Repair iOS System
In most of cases, when your iPhone X is hot in use, you have a software problem. An ultimate solution is to give it a full repair. I shall recommend you taking this process with Tenorshare ReiBoot as it will not affect all your data.
Connect your iPhone X with Tenorshare ReiBoot after installation and head for Fix All iOS Stuck > Fix Now and Download IPSW files to repair the corrupted system. When the repairing process finishes, your device will reboot with no more problems.
After learning what causes your iPhone X to overheat and how to fix it, you should be able to handle the device much better. Share it if this post helps.

"Bailarinas y amas de casa": divisiones sociales en el mercado transnacionalizado y representaciones de género
In this paper I pretend to contribute from the feminist critizism to the analysis of the current transnational movements, showing at the same time the cultural representations imbricated in the social divisions of work. Once I have analyzed the context of exclusions of the citizenship related with the structuration oft the market and s[ate in function of the differentiations of strangership, gender and country of origin, then I analize the cultural representations relative to sexual work division in conexion with international migrations. This work is based on an etnographic study done in the southwest of the Dominican Republic and in the city of Madrid.

The Consumers' Research Council of America (http://www.consumersresearchcncl.org) recently named The Consumers' Research Council of America (http://www.allnewsmiles.com) San Francisco area cosmetic dentist Joshua Bernstein (http://www.allnewsmiles.com/about.html) one of "America's Top Dentists." (http://www.consumersresearchcncl.org/Healthcare/top-dent-website/top_dent3.htm) This title shall be added to his already prestigious record that includes winning 2002 Dental Practice of the Year Award and being featured on "Extreme Makeover" in 2003.
Wilma Chan (http://www.allnewsmiles.com/testimonials.html) the California State Assembly Majority Leader had this to say to Dr. Bernstein:
"Congratulations on winning the 2002 Dental Practice of the Year Award. Your ability to provide quality care at a time when the dental and medical profession is being challenged to streamline services and work with managed care is to be congratulated. No doubt you have worked hard to bring your practice to this level of excellence, and it must bring you satisfaction to see that you efforts have not been in vain. Good luck with continued success in providing quality dental services."
The Consumers' Research Council of America (http://www.consumersresearchcncl.org) names dentists based on experience, training, ADA board certification and professional associates. Other dentists nominated Dr. Bernstein for this distinction.
William G. Dickerson (http://www.allnewsmiles.com/testimonials.html), founder and president, Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies (http://www.lvilive.com):
"Just a note to thank you for the great job you did on my mouth. Our patients are rarely capable of making a judgment on the quality of dental service performed, but as a dentist myself the first thing I did was to use my intra-oral camera to check out the margins and the occlusion. You passed with flying colors. Sometimes we take our skills for granted, but let me thank you for your achievements and expertise to perform the involved dental procedure in a minimal number of visits. I know and appreciate the work and dedication needed to get you to the level you are."
Dr. Bernstein has completed a comprehensive series of post-doctoral studies, served as Clinical Director on the LVI staff (http://www.lvilive.com) and completes hundreds of hours yearly in post-graduate dental studies to continue to have a widespread knowledge of the newest dentistry techniques and technology (http://www.allnewsmiles.com/tech.html).

Here comes the sun- Not
Well, as of the first of the month, we are back on the prime time schedule for rate E7. So, after noon and prior to 6 PM, we should be making extra credit at the higher rate mentioned before. If only it was true. It is not sunny at all here, and has not been since the start of the month. I know we need rain, but the little amount we are now getting is not really going to help anyone- and it is hurting us. Beware those who want to go the way of trying to be more green. Things like this- or mileage decreasing on many short trips, etc, did not used to matter to me. Now, I worry about losing any ground to the weather, or to the tires being wrong, or to other things I may not have thought of yet. We need rain, but the time for that is past. Let there be SUN!

The idea of Spiritual ...Glad you liked this essay. The idea of Spiritual Creation as a template is very Hermetic, arguably one of the central ideas of Hermeticism. Good point about Pratt. Which means that it is entirely likely there could have been a consensus on this situation had Brigham Young done a better job expressing it. Pratt seems to be responding more or less to Brigham's expression of the idea.

Well hopefully the LDS can just absorb the Hermetic version and come to peace on this issue.CD-Hosthttps://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-373425720288771023.post-29527589504765161532012-03-28T09:15:55.785-05:002012-03-28T09:15:55.785-05:00Thank you, thank you, for this.

I had come to (although not with Hermeticism in mind, although almost you convince me Mormonism is a modern Christian Hermetic tradition) much of the same conclusions a while ago. As you said, when you actually go and read the rather small sources it becomes apparent that a simple reading is not possible. At best its confusing when Brigham Young, and others, end up contradicting themselves in the next few paragraphs. This puts some sense into the received texts.

I also think that Brigham Young and Pratt's different views about the spiritual and physical Adam can be reconciled. This would be the case because of Mormon ideas of the Spiritual Creation as a precursor and template for the Physical Creation. Its a teaching that can be found in the Book of Abraham of the Pearl of Great Price.Jettboyhttps://firstname.lastname@example.com

So, Little Miss Sarah had her first Concert Choir performance last night. I have to say that I don't recall such a group of devoted, proud, badly off-tune soloists EVER to have performed in one space. Sarah was fantastic, she has a lovely voice, but, man, the rest of those kids should have been shot. I gave her a beautiful bouquet of roses, lilies and daisies... she loved them and was quite embarassed. I also got the chance to meet Sarah's father. Oh, my GAWD, I hope I have little contact with the guy. He creeps me out completely. His parents are nice enough, but he is a complete idiot. He actually slept through the performance, and I didn't have the heart to tell the truth when Sarah asked about him. "Oh, yes, he watched the whole thing..." Shit.
Then we all went back to Lindi's, ate Arby's sandwiches, watched the Golden Girls and cuddled on her bed.
I am thinking I like this Mom thing. *grin* I think I am right where I belong.
I had a second interview for the position at Cottonwood. Out of 178 applicants, 8 were interviewed. Out of those, 2 were sent to a second interview. I made it to the final 2. I still haven't heard, but I know they are checking on the applicants a little more thoroughly (Thanks, Dez for the AWESOME reference!). Then, apparently, one of the 8 who received a first interview felt se should have gotten a second interview, whined to some friends in suits, and now they may have to interview a third. Shit. I will keep you all posted on the job scene.
BY THE WAY.. MY COMMENTS ARE WORKING, I JUST HAVEN'T UPDATED THEM YET (I forgot my YACCS password.) CAN ANYONE GIVE ME THE NEW CODING?? Email it to me, please...

Sleep? What's that? Lol.
Something that has a huge impact on mental health for a start. Lack of sleep can be associated with all sorts of things, from mood swings to digestive issues and on to irritability via headaches and paranoia (or pianos apparently according to predictive text lol).
I fail at sleep, I always have. And the worse in doing mentally the worse I sleep.... and the worse I sleep the worse I do mentally, rather annoying that! But since in fairly certain that's not just me I figured I'd share a few things I find helpful.
*Note* evidently these aren't the perfect solution or I wouldn't be posting about lack of sleep! Nor do I always follow them. I have done no research specifically for this post so this certainly doesn't qualify as professional advice, it's just things that help me. If sleep is a major issue for you please consult a medical professional not some sleep deprived crazy person on the Internet :p*
- it's generally not good to eat a huge meal just before bed but equally being hungry or thirsty is something that frequently keeps me awake. A drink and a snack before bed may help (in aware this is easier said than done in some cases).
- similarly of I notice any discomfort hunger/thirst/being too hot/needing to pee etc. I find trying to ignore it will just lead to ruminating and obsessing over it.
- routine. This is one thing the professional advice does say. I'm quite good at this nowadays. Pajamas, teeth, cuppa, say goodnight to the dog (:p), meds, sleep.
- try not to get into text/messenger conversions close to bed time. I'm not one to discourage being sociable but yea, it's so easy to just get sucked in and suddenly find it's one in the morning and you're both shattered... I'm bad at this one!
- 'adult night lights'. Generally darkness is advised, and I do prefer it really, but if im having a really crappy night then a lava lamp/fibre optic lamp/anything similar can help drag my mind away from its silly spiral and back to the physical world.
- speaking of which there are mindfulness and meditation tracks and exercises designed specifically for bedtime. It's a bit trial and error finding the right one so I'll let you Google for yourself. Incidentally, general mindfulness practice claims to help with sleep.
- background noise. I hate sleeping in silence. Although some people are the complete opposite I know. Noise is usually the sound track to one of the comedy panel shows on iplayer. This is probably a poor choice tbh lol. Other options could be the aforementioned mindfulness tracks, white noise, music, nature sounds etc.
- writing a diary.... sometimes. This is a difficult one sometimes writing a diary can help to dump the brain crap and make my head quieter, sometimes it just puts it to the front of my mind. And since I haven't written a diary for a long time it's probably irrelevant.
- cuddly toys. I'm nearly twenty five, I still have a teddy. I don't care if it's childish he came all the way to Mexico with me :p. It's a comfort thing, it's a grounding thing, it's an associative thing. Plus he's cute Hehe.
- doing something productive before bed. Even if it's something silly, it just helps feel a little more accomplished and a little less useless....and a little more like I've earned sleep (I have issues with deliberate sleep deprivation as a form of self-punishment... particularly if i'm not self harming in other ways. I'm working on it lol).
Oh ramble ramble! I should be trying to sleep instead of writing about it (turn off all electrical gadgets at bed time that's a good one!). Picture is my 'grown up' (honest!) Mexican night light, it projects images on the ceiling :). X


text: Counting is well underway in Turkey in a referendum to decide whether the country's future presidents will be chosen by the parliament or elected by the people. The move to change the current system, where the president is approved by the parliament, is backed by Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's ruling AK party, early indications suggest that the vote will go the way of those who want the head of state elected by the people. Any change will not touch the current President Abdullah Gul who was chosen by parliament for a seven year term in August.

I've wanted a blog to share my thoughts on things of a spirit led, Quaker oriented fashion for some time now. It's taken me a while to come up with a name I liked though. Here's the story. I'd been reading and posting on Leith and Anna's blogs for a few months and asked Leith what I should call my blog. We'd been talking about what she should call her new horse as she was struggling to find a name. I thought maybe it'd be easier if we just named them the same thing. Her working name for her foal was "littlefox". I thought about that for a while, it is kind of 'Quakery' with fox in it, and I thought about "littlefoxes" too, but it just didn't stick.
So, last night I asked my 5 year old son what I should call it, and he said "Nothing Bucket". That was either very Zen and profound, or maybe he just took a dim view of what I might have to say on a blog. It wasn't quite right, but I told Anna because I thought it was amusing. She said it reminded her of Dumbledore's pensieve – a place to put thoughts when there are too many in your head. I looked pensieve up on Wikipedia. It says:
"Like many names in these books, pensieve is a pun: it is a sieve in that it is a device used for sifting out thoughts, and in using it one becomes pensive or thoughtful. It may be notable that "pensieve" is an anagram of Pevensie, the surname of the main characters from C. S. Lewis' The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, in which the Pevensie children are thrust into another world through a magical cupboard, as Harry is thrust into a memory through the pensieve in Dumbledore's cupboard."
I really liked this. I wanted somewhere I could be thoughtful, and reflective, but which others could also see into. The fact that one of my favourite Quaker quotes comes from William Penn sort of sealed the deal.
So there we are.

On monday I am starting again,
I am taking Ballet for the first time in two years.
I am so excited,
but so nervous at the same time!
The chances of me making a fool out of myself are very high.
But it will be absolutely worth it.
Besides Ballet, though, I am not extremely excited for the semester to start.
This break has been fantastic,
and it was definitely needed!
Countdown to Spring Break starts now:]
Happy start of the new Semester to all!

The Gujarat Elections are set to begin in three days and as per the Jan Ki Baat survey, the Narendra Modi-led BJP is all set to come to power once again in Gujarat. The polling for the two-phase elections in Gujarat, having total 182 seats, will take place on December 9 and 14 and votes will be counted on December 18. Eighty-nine seats of Saurashtra and South Gujarat region are going to polls in the first phase while the remaining 93 seats in the central and northern region would go for polls in the second phase.
According to the survey by Jan Ki Baat, the most extensive poll survey done on a television channel, BJP is all set to win 110 to 125 of the total 182 seats, while the Congress is likely to win between 53 to 68 seats. The analysis shows BJP winning big in Saurashtra and Kutch, winning 37 out of 54 seats. The BJP is also way ahead in Central Gujarat, winning 16 out of 23 seats. It is only in North Gujarat that the Congress has the edge, as they are likely to pick up 28 out of possible 53 seats.
The poll result predicted by Jan Ki Baat is somewhat similar to the outcome of the 2012 Gujarat elections, in which the Narendra Modi-led BJP won 119 seats, while the Congress managed to win just 57 seats.

In a race between experience and exuberant youth, 42-year-old incumbent Democrat Jonathan Harris is the better candidate to vote for in the 5th Senate District serving Bloomfield, Burlington, Farmington and West Hartford.
His Republican opponent, Kimberly E. Ryder, has good, innovative ideas on improving the quality of life in Connecticut. But the 29-year-old retirement service specialist for MetLife lacks the background and understanding displayed by Mr. Harris.
