Londinium welcomes applications and enquiries from experienced singers who are interested in joining a committed and friendly choir.
We present around four to five concerts each year in the City of London, currently and until July 2018 at St Sepulchre's, in addition to other engagements in and out of London. Londinium works on a project basis, with rehearsals usually on Tuesday evenings (7pm - 9.30pm) at St John's Waterloo, and occasional Saturdays at venues in the City or near Waterloo. Rehearsals for own-promotion concerts typically take place over a period of five weeks, and include two all-day (10.30am - 4.30pm) Saturday rehearsals.
Singers are drawn from a 'pool', which gives the choir the flexibility to meet the requirements of each project, but it is kept to a size which gives members of the choir as many opportunities to sing as possible. Singers do not have to make themselves available on each occasion, but there is a strong emphasis on maintaining a core group who work together regularly and take part in most performances. There is a small subscription payable for each concert, to cover music and contribute towards rehearsal costs.
Auditions are taken by the Musical Director; auditionees are asked to bring a piece which they would like to sing and will be accompanied. There is also a sight-reading test.
Please fill in the form on our Contact page, stating your voice part and providing details of your singing experience, to request an audition.

press conference by General Assembly president on recent travels, current issues
General Assembly President Miguel d'Escoto Brockmann (Nicaragua) briefed journalists today on his recent travels, during which he had brought various leaders up to date about preparations for the forthcoming high-level meeting to address the fallout of the global economic and financial crisis.
Speaking at a Headquarters press conference this morning, he said that the countries he had visited included Syria, Finland, China, Bahrain, Switzerland and Iran, and that he had stressed to some 20 Heads of State the importance of participating in the upcoming event, to be held in New York from 1 to 4 June, which would focus on the impacts of the crisis on development.
[The General Assembly was mandated to organize the high-level meeting as part of the outcome of the International Follow-up Conference to the Monterrey Consensus, held in Doha, Qatar, in November 2008.]
During his visit to Iran, the President said, he had also attended the Tenth Summit of the Economic Cooperation Organization in Tehran on 11 March. "All in all, it was a very positive meeting." Notably, great respect had been shown to Iran by its neighbours, contrary to the "demonized" image of the country's President portrayed by the United States.
Indeed, Iran had been recognized for its positive role in alleviating the plight of refugees, he said, adding that he had heard the United States Secretary of State was planning a meeting to discuss Afghanistan, and would consider inviting Iran. "That sounded reasonable and very good."
Asked about having called for a boycott of Israel, he said: "I don't remember that I ever did that," adding, however, that the more he contemplated the lifestyle imposed on Palestinians, the more he tended to think about apartheid. His use of that term had also caused a huge scandal, yet former United States President Jimmy Carter ‑‑ who no one regarded as a radical ‑‑ had published a book with the word "apartheid" in the title. South African Archbishop Desmond Tutu and former President Nelson Mandela had also used the word.
"I don't hate Israel," Mr. D'Escoto continued, stressing that Jewish people were high on the list of people he loved. However, the President of the General Assembly had a duty to speak out against actions he felt were not right. His only agenda was to fulfil his duty as Assembly President by uplifting the letter and spirit of the United Nations Charter.
Regarding his thoughts about the decision by the United States not to participate in the Durban Review Conference next month, he said he had explained during his trip that it was an opportunity for real change in that country's international policy. Ideas ingrained for years in the conscience of the United States were a political handicap that must be overcome. If it chose not to attend, it was to be expected that such a decision would be "because of Israel", but it would be a shame for the United States not to attend.
Asked his position on the International Criminal Court's decision to grant an arrest warrant for President Omer al-Bashir of the Sudan, he called the ruling "unfortunate", as it deepened a perception that international justice was "racist". For a third time the Court's ruling had to do with Africa and it was most lamentable that, two weeks before the announcement, a joint delegation of the African Union and the League of Arab States had visited the United Nations to explain that President Bashir had initiated conversations with the leader of the most important rebel group in Darfur. They had urged the United Nations to "give peace a chance", but the West was notorious for getting involved in things it did not understand, with its arrogant "shoot-and-find-out-later" attitude towards solving the world's problems.
Pressed to say who supported his view that it would be better to leave President Bashir in place, he clarified that the joint delegation had requested the Security Council to put the issue "on the back burner" for a year or so to allow local initiatives time to work. "You can't just disqualify the African Union's views." A book by a Columbia University professor explained why the Court's ruling on Darfur was lamentable. "We have this saviour thing; we want to save. When you see us wanting to save, you can bet we will only compound situations and make things worse." It was the duty of the General Assembly President to speak out on such issues, and he was speaking on behalf of the "immense majority" of the Organization.
Asked whether more information could be disseminated about Security Council reform, he said he would look into that, but the fundamental problem in the United Nations was not being addressed: the Organization's prestige was at its lowest point ever, primarily because of Iraq.
In response to a query about the Secretary-General's recent description of the United States as a "deadbeat" debtor to the United Nations, he said he supported the Secretary-General, and looked forward to much greater cooperation from the United States. The world needed the United Nations and the United Nations needed a United States that was committed to multilateralism and respect for sovereign equality.
Asked the biggest lesson he had learned from seven months as General Assembly President, he said the precipitous manner in which some wished to use violence to solve problems posed a great danger to the need for an Organization united around the ideal of peace and committed to the spirit and letter of the Charter.
To a question about whether the call by the President of Iran to "erase" a Member State off the map was an ideal bolstered by the Charter, he said it would be lamentable if the President had indeed said that. There was a difference between rhetoric and practice. "Words don't kill." On a related matter, the United Nations would hold an interactive dialogue on the atrocities committed in Gaza.
Asked whether a political coalition calling for the transfer of Palestinians from their homeland would allow for peace in the Middle East, he said that what made peace "not possible" was the attitude that dialogue would happen with some but not others. Peace began with respect and fairness, not excluding some from dialogue.
As for the possibility of progress on Security Council reform this year, he asked for "a couple of months" to better appraise the situation. Everyone agreed that Africa was underrepresented on the Council. At the founding of the United Nations there had been just 4 independent African States; today there were 52.

CRANFORD — Calvary Lutheran Church, 108 Eastman Street, Cranford begins a new focus on educational ministry for young children ages three to five years beginning on Sunday, Dec. 8 at 9:30 a.m.
The new weekly program is open to children who were three years old by Oct. 1. New participants will be welcomed throughout the school year.
Known as "Young Children and Worship," the program helps pre-schoolers develop an understanding of what it means to be in worship. This new approach connects the usual Sunday School elements to the traditional elements found in worship: creating a sacred space, greeting the church family, hearing the word, responding to the word, sharing communion, and being sent out into the world.
As young children become familiar with these concepts, they are better able to recognize them and feel comfortable when they attend worship. The sense of ritual they experience in this program expands to an understanding of worship in their church setting.
At each Sunday session the children gather together and greet one another. They hear the word through Bible stories acted out with three-dimensional figures. They respond to the story by choosing from various stations offering music, art, puzzles, reading, prayer and more.
Also, in this new program traditional snack time becomes a "feast" replicating communion. The children gather in a circle for a meal together. The teacher unwraps a napkin containing crackers, which the youngsters pass around and share, along with a glass of water.
Then an adult reads that week's story from a children's Bible, and with closing prayers, they are sent out into their world.
Parents planning to bring their young children to this new experience are invited to call Lynda Pullis, Calvary Lutheran's Youth and Family Ministry Director, at 908-276-2418. Those needing more information are also invited to call.
Calvary Lutheran Church is a congregation of the New Jersey Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) serving the Cranford-Westfield area and surrounding communities for 85 years.

Instead of listing my favorite supplements from other campaigns, I'm going to let you get on the inside of the Jimmy Smith Training lab. These are the supplements that I use either daily or in specific intervals for more muscle, increased strength, less fat and improved health. I've even made this cool video for you below that goes more in-depth on some of the supplements listed below. Listed below you'll find supplement suggestions for every goal imaginable.
Remember, you don't have to buy EVERY supplement. Start out with two or three and use them like I recommend.
Non stimulant pre workout
300-600 mg's COQ10: Research shows this amount can increase fast twitch muscle fiber recruitment. Since fast twitch muscle fibers grow bigger and stronger, it makes sense to follow the recommendations above. Click here for Jimmy's preferred COQ10.
500 mg's Niacin: Increases blood flow which delivers amazing pumps while also reducing fatigue. Jimmy uses this Niacin brand.
300 mg's Alpha GPC: Boosts growth hormone short term. It also improves your mood which can increase your training drive. Jimmy's ALPHA GPC recommendation
3 grams of GPLC: Improves muscle function and reduced lactic acid buildup during low-oxygen conditions such as exercise and provides powerful support for peripheral arterial blood flow. Jimmy uses this brand of GPLC
Improved ability to focus and concentrate
Acetyl-l-carnitine with Alpha Lipoic Acid: Supports dopamine levels and increased cellular energy production. Has moderate testosterone increasing ability as well. Alpha Lipoic Acid is also a fantastic antioxidant that helps your body handle sugar while also recycling vitamin C and E more efficiently. Jimmy uses this ALCAR with ALA
Bacopa: a herb that increase the brains ability to fight stress and increase focus. Jimmy uses this Bacopa twice a day.
Huperzine:a herb that helps brain cognition and balance while also reducing oxidation stress and inflammation. Also supports the neurotransmitter acetylcholine which is important for muscular contractions. Jimmy recommends this huperzine.
Lower cortisol and stress
PS: Very useful for people who have a highly stressed lifestyle. Increases neurotransmitters and glucose metabolism in the brain to help you relax. Helps to increase a relaxed state. Jimmy uses this PS brand.
GABA: Supports a relaxed state of mind and healthy resting growth hormone release after exercise. Jimmy uses this GABA.
Theanine: L-theanine is an amino acid found naturally in green tea (Camelia sinesis). For centuries, green tea has been used in Asia for its calming properties, as well as its health promoting effects. L-theanine may be one of the larger contributing constituents in green tea that supports feelings of relaxation without drowsiness. This is a fantastic theanine that Jimmy uses.
Rhodiola: Rhodiola rosea is a plant that grows in dry, cold areas in the mountainous regions of Europe and Asia. It has been a dietary staple in many Eastern European and Scandinavian populations for centuries. While research has been conducted on the plant in some areas of the world, only recently has the West begun to investigate its health benefits. The roots have been used primarily to help with resistance to physical stress. Jimmy advises this Rhodiola.
Insulin Resistance/Blood Sugar Management
300 to 600 mg's R-ALA:
Lipoic acid has been called "a universal antioxidant" because it's effective as an antioxidant in water-based environments, such as blood, yet its reduced metabolite, dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA), is also effective in protecting fatty tissues and membranes.*
The "R" form is considered the biologically active form, identical to that produced by the body. Unlike other forms of lipoic acid, RALA is bioavailable and more stable in the body.
3 grams of Fenugreek: is an herb native to Asia and the Mediterranean. Its leaves are a popular culinary ingredient, eaten fresh or dried. Its seeds, which contain powerful antioxidants, are used as a spice or in supplements. Fenugreek seeds have been used traditionally for metabolic. Jimmy advises this Fenugreek.
3 to 5 grams CLA: has potent antioxidant properties. CLA is a naturally occurring fatty acid that may support lean body mass, as well as healthy glucose and insulin metabolism by enhancing insulin sensitivity and glucose uptake. Jimmy's clients take this CLA.
1-2 grams of Gymnema :a large plant native to India, found growing today in tropical Africa and in Australia. Its Hindi name is "gur-mar," meaning "sugar destroying," because of the anti-sweet quality experienced when, after chewing one or two leaves, one is unable to detect a sweet taste. The gymnema that Jimmy recommends
1-2 grams Calcium D-glucarate is a form of glucaric acid, a sugar-based compound produced naturally by the body in small amounts and found in fruits and vegetables, including broccoli, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, grapefruit, oranges and apples and is fantastic for increasing the estrogen detoxing pathways of the body. Jimmy trusts this Calcium D Glucarate.
1 gram per day DIM: is a unique formula containing diindolylmethane (DIM), a plant compound found in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, kale and Brussels sprouts. Jimmy often uses this DIM.
1 to 2 capsules Green Tea: prepared from the dried leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant, is a traditional herbal beverage that's been enjoyed for centuries for its simple, soothing taste and its diverse health benefits. Green tea is consumed worldwide, but is especially popular in China, Japan, India, Thailand and the U.S.
Green tea is produced by lightly steaming and then immediately drying the tea leaves. This process prevents oxidation and preserves active constituents in the herb. Green tea is a source of polyphenols, particularly the catechin epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which offer powerful antioxidant protection.
This is the only Green Tea that Jimmy recommends.
2 grams of D-Limonene is a volatile oil steam-distilled from orange peel. d-Limonene is the major constituent of several citrus essential oils (orange, lemon and lime), and naturally occurs in citrus juices.

For the past two years, I have had the honor of working with the Sioux Tribes of South Dakota, and several dedicated consultants that have been donating their time, to develop the Tribes' wind energy resources. We have now made sufficient progress to go public - this week, at the 2013 Clinton Global Initiative America meeting, President Clinton helped us announce that six Sioux Tribes are banding together to develop the largest wind power production facility in the United States. This has exciting implications for the sustainability of the environment and for the self-sufficiency of the one of the country's most resilient but underserved communities.
The Midwest has been called "the Saudi Arabia of wind power," and the northern Great Plains has enough wind resources to meet the entire energy demand of the United States several times over. Six South Dakota Sioux Tribes - the Cheyenne River, Crow Creek, Oglala, Rosebud, Sisseton Wahpeton, and Yankton Tribes - have decided to pool their considerable wind power resources to create the largest utility-grade wind installation in the country - a Project funded by $1.75-3 Billion in bonds issued through a multi-Tribal power authority.
This Project completely changes the model for developing wind power in the U.S. Previously, large wind projects were funded by private equity - this means that it is expensive money (equity investors require double-digit returns), and it means that the project is owned by the investors. But our Project will use bond financing - bond rates are at historic lows, and are the most cost-effective type of funding currently available. More importantly, because the multi-Tribal power authority will be issuing the bonds, backed by the quality of the Tribes' wind power assets and the expertise of world-class operators, the Tribes will own the Project and will realize the full benefit of the sales of power to customers beyond their communities.
This will be a "first" in many respects: the first use of public power bonds in a project of this type; the first time multiple Tribes have cooperated in an economic development project of this size and scope; the first new joint municipal power authority formed in the U.S. in decades. And it will be a market driven initiative - start-up costs will be funded by private grants and investments, and the Project development costs will be fully funded by Power Authority bonds. The Project will not rely on federal tax credits. It is our hope that this Project may become a model for the development of wind power and other forms of renewable energy across the U.S., both on and off Native Lands.
The Northern Great Plains is the traditional home of the Lakota, Nakota and Dakota Oyate (People) - three linguistically different groups that share a common culture and heritage. We have always survived in the Great Plains by relying on the natural resources given to us by Tunkaṡina (Grandfather or the Creator) through our Unci Tunkaṡina (Grandmother Earth). These resources include Taté (the wind) - our lands contain the strongest and most reliable wind resources in the United States - and Mni (water) - our group contains several "river tribes" whose reservations are located on the Missouri River and house dams that have provided power to the upper Midwest for decades.
All of our Tribes suffer from an unacceptable level of poverty and joblessness, and so economic development is a central concern. The development of utility-scale wind power, supplemented with hydropower, will enable us to provide for the well being of our people by generating sustainable economic and community development, jobs and training opportunities in a way that is consistent with our cherished beliefs, traditional ways of life, and rich cultural traditions.
Moreover, developing our renewable energy resources will make a significant contribution in addressing the global crisis in climate change. Together, our Tribes cover 16% of the total land area of South Dakota, and have the capacity to develop as much as 58 Gigawatts of power while producing zero emissions. By producing at least 1-2 Gigawatts, our Project will more than double the installed wind-power capacity in South Dakota (currently only 784 megawatts) and add 2-3% to the total amount of wind-power generated in the United States. We are honored to have this opportunity to pursue our sacred trust as responsible stewards of the earth, not only on the Mother Land of our tribes, but also as members of the global community.
This Project will also be significant on another level: In recent decades, our Tribes have had few opportunities to work together to achieve common purposes. But our multi-Tribal wind Project will be one of the most significant economic development initiatives in the history of South Dakota, and will result in spin-off development in road building, trucking, hotels and restaurants, telecommunications and other industries, benefiting both the Tribes and neighboring communities. This will dramatically increase the power of the Tribes to control their own destinies.
Currently, electricity costs are a greater burden for residents of Tribal lands, and individual Tribes have been attempting to increase the amount of their hydropower allocations from the power generated by the dams on their reservations.
By combining our resources into a Project of this size and scope, the Tribes together will be in a better position to pursue Tribal priorities with key governmental and private partners, such as the Western Area Power Administration (WAPA), the Army Corps of Engineers, and the local power cooperatives and utilities, whose policies and practices directly affect wholesale and retail power prices and water usage rights on the reservations.
In joining together to build the largest wind-power installation in the U.S. and the largest economic development project in South Dakota, the Tribes will finally achieve a level of self-determination, self-development and self-reliance that, acting alone, they have not had in the past. This type of inter-Tribal cooperation has deep roots in the history of the Lakota, Nakota and Dakota Oyate - the historic alliance of these bands is called the Oceti Ŝakowiŋ, or "The Seven Council Fires." It is also known as the Great Sioux Nation.

This post is part of a series produced by The Huffington Post and the Clinton Global Initiative in recognition of the latter's third meeting of CGI America (June 13-14 in Chicago). CGI America convenes business, government, and civil society leaders each year to make commitments promoting domestic economic recovery and the long-term competitiveness of the United States. Since the meeting's launch, CGI America participants have made more than 200 new commitments, with an estimated value of more than $13.4 billion when fully funded and implemented.

You Can't Detect What You Can't See: Illuminating the Entire Kill Chain
On-Demand Webinar
The original iPad enabled users to lock the rotation, so that when you held the iPad in a different orientation, it didn't rotate around to self-correct. But in iOS 4.2, Apple transformed the purpose of that button to mute the sound on the device. It looks like in the new beta, however, users will be given an option for the button and will be able to choose one behavior or the other.
Announcing iPhone support this week, Verizon promised the ability to use the iPhone for a Wi-Fi hotspot that supports up to five devices. The new iOS explicitly supports that feature, and gives users the option to turn it on and off. That it's built-in suggests other carriers might support the feature.
The new iOS also has settings for something called "Find My Friends," which implies that Apple will roll out a GPS-based Google Latitude-like "stalking" service, possibly in Mobile Me.
The new iOS also gets a smattering of very small features, including the ability to set the number of SMS alert tones to up to 10 times (before giving up and remaining quiet). The look of the keyboard is slightly different. There's a goofy new font called "Noteworthy." Advertisers will be given the option to display full-screen ads in iAd.
It also appears that the new iOS won't work on the iPhone 3G or the 2nd-generation iPod Touch (the current version is the 4th generation).
You can never know for sure what Apple is going to do next. But mysterious, cryptic clues in the new beta of iOS 4.3 is solid evidence of future directions.

Every time it happens to me, I remember the episode in The Simpsons where Homer wants to get a raise when he was working at Bowlarama, he proposes to Al to triple the business, then you can see Homer reading "Advanced Marketing", next scene the book is in trash bin and Homer is reading "Basic Marketing", after that you can see a pile of books in the trash and Homer looking for the word "marketing" at the dictionary…
I had to read an technical article related to Quantization and present an explanation for the Digital Image Processing class in a workshop session. The teacher gave us a list of articles related to quantization and she asked us to choose one of them. The first problem we faced was the availability of the papers, although the university has some kind of subscription with IEEE and ScienceDirect, the number of articles available for us to download was very limited and the date of them was quite old.
While looking at the titles of the papers "the" question was arisen, which article should I choose? First of all looked at the articles that sounded good to me, then I realized that none of them were available from IEEE, and couldn't connect to ScienceDirect from school. Then I started searching any article from the list available from IEEE was "Generalized Scalar Quantizer Design Using Dynamic Programming" (bear in mind that if you don't have a subscription you can't see the article). The article is three pages long, but I couldn't get to understand it enough to make a presentation.
I gave up searching the articles from the list and started surfing with Saint Google, I don't remember the keywords I used to search, but I came up with "Optimal Entropy-Constrained Scalar Quantization of a Uniform Source". It's funny because while writing this post I was looking for the link to this file and found that the one of the coauthors of the article, ANDRÁS GYÖRGY, has a bunch of his papers published listed in his publication's page, are available to download and some of them are about quantization.
After that, troubles has just begun, I started reading the article, and realized that most of the ideas were unclear to me, then I had to go to the books to search for the definition of the term I was stuck with, but while reading the definition I found also some things that for the moment I wasn't able to understand, besides that I couldn't found any 'for dummies' book about digital image processing, go figure, and it's obvious there is no such thing. So I was reading in circles, finally, I put some kind of order in my ideas and made a presentation with the concepts I got. Still, it wasn't enough to be clear the concept proposed in the paper, at least for me.
The best thing that I recall from this exercise is that it helped me to understand that research is not easy, but reading and sharing the little knowledge acquired, is the only way to start learning new things, it opens the mind to a different level, because we can see the work other people involved in the same field is doing, and also get fresh ideas from our peers, remember that feedback is always good and there is no such thing as "constructive nor destructive" critics.

A 19-year-old Skokie man told authorities he robbed a bank in the northern suburb of $1,600 on Tuesday "just to see if he could get away with it," according to the FBI.
Moshe Ferdman entered a Charter One Bank branch, 3330 Dempster St., about 1:30 p.m., placed a note on the teller counter demanding money and told a bank employee to give him $100 bills, an affidavit stated.
Ferdman then allegedly fled the bank, leaving the note behind. No one was hurt.
Shortly thereafter, two people on Dempster saw Ferdman run out of the bank with a black, knit hat with eye holes cut out of it, the affidavit stated. A Skokie police officer, meanwhile, searched the area and found a dark-colored jacket and a white plastic bag containing red dye-stained money.

The History Of Faceless Dolls - Updated February 2015 - Part VII - Goddess and Spirit Dolls
I have been wanting to create some "goddess dolls" also known as spirit dolls, healing dolls, or mixed media art dolls for awhile and posted about this in an article on my Linda's Blog entitled "My Goddess Doll Adventure So Far!"
I also did some research on them which I posted about in my article on my Linda's Blog entitled A Little More Information on Making Goddess, Spirit and Healing Dolls Of Your Own
What I discovered was that "goddess dolls" or spirit, healing, mixed media art dolls have also been associated with voodoo dolls, pagan rituals, and witchcraft. But, they all relate to "the goddess" and "goddess traditions."
Some "goddess dolls" have been used for good purposes and some used, well, not for good purposes. They have been seen in various cultures all over the world, and in various religions - in various different forms and mediums. It seems that they are as old as time itself and traditional in almost every culture.
Some of the "goddess dolls and spirit dolls" that I have seen are either faceless (which is fine with me) or have cloth faces, clay faces, have sun or moon faces, even beaded faces. Some of the face shapes are round or oval, some are square, and some are triangles. Some of the faces are made of clay, some of cloth and some are even made of beads.
Whatever the face is the dolls are meant to share your hopes, dreams, and listen to your fears. They provide comfort and solace in your time of need. They provide you with the strength you need to face the challengers in your life and empower you to succeed. To release your own "inner goddess." They are lovingly made and given out of heartfelt love from one human being to another. They offer nothing more than love, compassion, understanding, and peace.
In creating the goddess or spirit doll into a physical form you are allowing the spirit to work with you, help you, guide you, and bond with you.
If you would like to make a faceless spirit doll, like the one shown in the picture to the left, Silver RavenWolf, who has written over 21 books on witchcraft, Wicca, angels and magick has a How To Make A Spirit Doll — The Journey of Magickal Design tutorial on her Silver RavenWolf blog.
Silver RavenWolf used the same pattern with a little variation to create three goddess dolls: Mama Magick, Mama Fortune and Mama Transformation. Both Mama Magick and Mama Fortune - Mama Transformation is faceless.
According to Silver RavenWolf, "Mama Transformation has no face, as the face of transformation belongs to her eventual owner."

Crafting a Magical Life: Manifesting Your Heart's Desire Through Creative Projects by Carol Holaday published in 2009 by Findhorn Press, Scotland is a book about magic, creativity, and finding your own creative process through the powers of your mind.
According to Carol, "Whatever it is you want to create first begins with your thought. By investing your energy in your creation, you are giving life to your creation through a huge concentration of power born of that desire."
Also, according to Carol, "Goddess dolls were created primarily for magical purposes, to honor the energy of the Goddess and to serve as a repository for that energy."
In Chapter 11 Carol talks about her own Goddess doll adventures and provides instructions and a template for creating your own goddess doll, like the one shown in the picture to the left.
If you would like to read more about Carol's goddess doll adventures and her book please click here.
When talking about goddess dolls and spirit dolls you inevitably end up talking about poppets or voodoo dolls, as they are commonly known. So, what exactly is a poppet?
The following is what Wikipedia.com has to say about Poppets: "In folk-magic and witchcraft, a poppet, also known as Poppits, Moppets, Mommets and Pippies is a doll made to represent a person, for casting spells on that person or to aid that person through magic. They are occasionally found lodged in chimneys. These dolls may be fashioned from such materials as a carved root, grain or corn shafts, a fruit, paper, wax, a potato, clay, branches, or cloth stuffed with herbs with "the intent that any actions performed upon the effigy will be transferred to the subject based on sympathetic magic. It was from these European dolls that the myth of Voodoo dolls arose. Poppets are also used as kitchen witch figures."
According to The Information Please Girls' Almanac By Alice Siegel - Page 147, "Poppets were hand made by New Englanders in the mid 19th Century. They were made of rags and hog bristles and stuffed with hair. They were owned by two eccentric women in Salem, MA who were later accused of being witches. Their dolls were used against them when they were tried and hung as witches."
Searching a little more on this subject I found the following on the Poppet - Salem Witch Trials article by Jone Johnson Lewis - Women's History Expert. A poppit or puppet was, "Cloth or rags knotted to resemble a person, and believed to represent an individual that a witch wanted to torment. Actions taken on the poppet, such as putting pins in it or setting it on fire or casting it into a river, were supposed to have effects on the person the poppet represented. "Poppet" was also used in general for knotted cloths representing human figures used by children for dolls in play."
"In the Salem witch trials, possession of poppets was considered evidence of witchcraft."
Well, according to Patti Wigington, who is a Paganism/Wicca expert, "A poppet is simply a doll. Although TV shows and movies typically show poppets as the stereotypical "voodoo doll," poppets have been around for a long time. "
In her Poppets 101 - Introduction to Poppet Magic article she also stated, "Remember, the poppet is a useful magical tool, and can be used in a variety of workings. Be sure to check out Sample Poppets for ideas on how to use one. Use it for healing, to banish harmful people from your life, to bring abundance your way -- the choices are practically limitless."
So, of course, I was intrigued as to how poppets could be beneficial. According to Patti they can be used to get a job you've applied for, to protect your family, to heal a sick person, and to bring love into your life - all good things.
Like Goddess dolls and spirit dolls Poppets can be made out of cloth, clay, wood, wax - just about any material. They can have faces or be "faceless."
So, I went looking for Poppets being used in a good way. I found a reference to a Poppet with a picture of a pilgrim girl and her "Poppet" doll, which had a drawn face. The picture was under the Colonial Games section on Page 14 of a .PDF from Sp.rpcs.org (Roland Park Country School - Private School in Baltimore, Maryland) about the Colonial Era - 1600-1776.
The caption was, "Children had very few playthings. Sometimes their fathers carved toys from wood or their mothers made corn husk or apple dolls, called poppets." Surely, Pilgrim parents wouldn't give their children poppets to play with if they were evil. Would they?
If you would like to see or read this .PDF please click here.
If you would like to learn how to make a poppet for healing please click here.
I also found the following Meet The Moppets section of the Art Dolls, Spirit Dolls - A Personal Journey Into Art & Magic article by Silvia Hartmann where she talks about a moppet she made.
I also found a Make A JuJu, Moppet, Poppet or Magic Doll Step By Step how-to on the Magic, Spells and potions website showing you how to make the moppet in the picture to the right.
If you would like to see and read that how-to please click here.
In my search for information on Poppets I also found out that a kitchen witch is a poppet or homemade doll resembling a witch or crone that is displayed in a kitchen as good luck in warding off evil spirits. It's considered good luck to give a family member or friend a kitchen witch. Ah, ha! Another good use of a poppet.
Years ago I used to hang a little kitchen witch with an old crone face who was riding a broom in my kitchen for good luck. I'm not sure what happened to her. She's probably in a box somewhere.
According to Wikipedia.com there is a debate as to where kitchen witches originated from. Some think Norway, some say Germany, others say Tudor England, where concrete evidence is, "the will of one John Crudgington, of Newton, Worfield, Shropshire, dated 1599, divides...his belongings amongst his wife and three children, "except the cubbard in the halle the witche in the kytchyn which I gyve and bequeathe to Roger my sonne."
Today the kitchen witch is usually thought of as bringing good fortune to the kitchen and all the activities of the kitchen and food preparation. With the kitchen witch doing her job evil spirits will not enter.
I found a How-To Make a Kitchen Witch post on the Book Of Mirrors blog by Witchfire showing how to make the faceless kitchen witch shown in the picture above and to the left. The kitchen witch was purchased by the blog author and is being used as a model in the How-To Make a Kitchen Witch post.
If you would like to read more of Witchfire's post please click here.
I also found a faceless Enchanting Corn Husk Kitchen Witch tutorial to make the faceless corn husk witch shown in the picture to the right by Liss on the Budget101.com website.
Jude Lally is an artist, teacher, and writer. Her beautiful needle felted art dolls include beautiful "faceless" spiritual and goddess dolls (like the picture of Goddess Brighid shown in the picture to the left), as well as folk art dolls.
All of her beautiful art dolls are created as a reminder of and a way of integrating ancient spirituality with today's modern life.
According to Jude, "Doll making is an ancient tradition. Shaping the Divine feminine into a familiar form. My dolls are inspired by women on the threshold. One with a foot in this world and a foot in the otherworld. They are often faceless, which allows you to project your own story or maybe they hint at their origins. They are familiar with ancestors and spirits and the ways of magic."
"These dolls are made entirely from wool by a technique called needle felting in which I use a single barbed to mould a 3d shape in wool by thousands of repetitive hand actions by the needle."
Here's what Jude had to say about her folk art dolls, like those shown in the picture to the right.
"These folk art dolls were born of the threshold – not quite of this world or the other. Their pins remind us of the knots we weave around ourself, the magic we spin without even realizing! They are a focus for our intentions, wither they be to attract or shield – gathering what we need, protecting ourselves against unwanted energies, and helping us reflect it back to its source."

"I make images... so that all my moments will not be lost in time like tears in rain." ~ Skip Hunt Skip Hunt, born on the wind-swept plains of Oklahoma, is a professional photographer in Austin, Texas. He picked up a 35mm camera in the mid-1970's and has never stopped sharing his unique vision via photographic images. Many moons ago, he was bitten hard by the wanderlust beast and has been canvassing the globe ever since. Visionary artists such as Pete Turner, David Lynch, Cindy Sherman, and Andre Kertesz set Skip's sight on a fine-art horizon early on. His insatiable thirst for rich color and even richer cultural exploration keeps him on the road most of the time. When he's recharging his batteries, he calls Austin, Texas...

Welcome to KNOW BREXIT
KNOW BREXIT – the show – now at the Edinburgh Fringe (to 26 August 2017)
Know Brexit is the second show devised by Geoffrey Brown on the background and challenges of Brexit. The show is a humorous and entertaining look at the Brexit options, our future relationship with the EU, and what it all means for the UK.
It is now on at the Edinburgh Fringe (4-26 August) at 4.05pm at theSpace@Surgeons Hall (venue #53) – tickets are £10 (£8.50 concessions). You can find more information here and book tickets on the Edinburgh Fringe website here.
Reviews of the new show have said "the crowd come away with their brains jangling but much better informed" – you can read the full review here.
Reviewers for this show said – 'clever mixing of humour with a stream of enlightening facts' (FringeReview.co.uk), 'engaging, informative, diverse and often surprising' (TheOutlierScotland.co.uk).
Know Brexit will also be on at the Edinburgh Fringe from 4-27 August 2017 – you can find more information here and book tickets on the Edinburgh Fringe website here.
There is also a twitter feed – @knowbrexit.
KNOW BREXIT – the website
The UK referendum on membership of the EU took place on 23 June 2016. Prior to that date, this website was run as www.artsIN.eu as a platform for those in the arts & culture sector (and their friends and supporters) to support the Remain vote. However, the result was 52% in favour of Leave.
This new website, KNOW BREXIT, offers some background information for the arts & culture sector (and their friends and supporters) to explore and understand the implications of the Brexit vote. The website also provides a Blog where Geoffrey Brown and others will add their thoughts (and where you can add your comments), a Resources page, where you can find links to a range of information & resources.
Please click Supporters and add your name to those who wish the UK to remain as close as possible to the EU!
There is also a twitter feed – @knowbrexit.

What this programs does:
XP Antivirus 2008, XP Antivirus 2009, and XPAntiVirus are rogue antivirus programs that, when run, display false results as a tactic to scare you into purchasing the software. Older versions of XP Antivirus would create 9 entries in your Windows Registry that impersonate infections on your machine. In reality, though, these registry entries were harmless and had absolutely no effect on your computer. Instead, these entries were set so that XP AntiVirus can find them when scanning your computer and report them as infections. The newer of versions of the program , such as XP Antivirus 2008 and XP Antivirus 2009, instead just display false results when scanning your computer that state infections were found. In order to remove these fake infections, though, you would first need to purchase the software as the trial does not allow you to remove them.
While running, XP Antivirus will also display fake alerts stating that you are infected or under attack from some type of threat. These alerts are fake and can be ignored. If you do click on the alert, though, it will prompt you to purchase the software. Examples of text contained in these alerts can be found below.
Privacy Violation alert!
XP antivirus detected Privacy Violation. Some program is secretly sending your private data to untrusted internet host. Click here to block this activity by removing threats (Recommended).
System files modification alert!
Some critical system files of your computer were modified by malicious program. It may cause system instability and data loss. Click here to block unathorised
modification by removing threats (Recommended).
As you can see these programs are fraudware because they make changes to your computer and then state these changes are infections as a scare tactic to have you purchase the software. It goes without saying that under no circumstances should you buy it. The older program, XPAntivirus, does come with a removal option in the computer's Add or Remove Programs list, but when you attempt to uninstall it, all that happens is the entry is removed from the list and program's process is terminated. Next time you reboot, XP AntiVirus will start up again. The newer versions of the program do not contain an entry in the Add or Remove Programs list at all.

Then click on the Finish button.
- MBAM will now automatically start and you will see a message stating that you should update the program before performing a scan. As MBAM will automatically update itself after the install, you can press the OK button to close that box and you will now be at the main program as shown below.

- You will now be back at the main Scanner screen. At this point you should click on the Show Results button.
- A screen displaying all the malware that the program found will be shown as seen in the image below. Please note that the infections found may be different than what is shown in the image.
You should now click on the Remove Selected button to remove all the listed malware. MBAM will now delete all of the files and registry keys and add them to the programs quarantine. When removing the files, MBAM may require a reboot in order to remove some of them. If it displays a message stating that it needs to reboot, please allow it to do so. Once your computer has rebooted, and you are logged in, please continue with the rest of the steps.
- When MBAM has finished removing the malware, it will open the scan log and display it in Notepad. Review the log as desired, and then close the Notepad window.
- You can now exit the MBAM program.
Your computer should now be free of the XP Antivirus 2008, XP Antivirus 2009, and XPAntivirus program.

New MPs' expenses regime unveiled
MPs are braced for the publication of their scaled-back expenses regime.
Parliament's new watchdog is to announce the details of the scheme it will be administering in the aftermath of the expenses scandal.
The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (Ipsa) is likely to anger many MPs, who have already protested strongly against the body's initial proposals.
They included scrapping the "golden goodbye" of up to £65,000 for retiring MPs, and stopping MPs buying homes with mortgages subsidised by the taxpayer – forcing them to rent instead. After a consultation on those ideas earlier this year, Ipsa chairman Professor Sir Ian Kennedy will release the final details of how the new regime will work.
Ipsa was set up to overhaul the system in response to the MPs' expenses scandal erupted last year. After that it was agreed that MPs could no longer set their own rules. Its proposals put forward in January were based in part on the recommendations of last year's Kelly Report on MPs' expenses by the Committee on Standards in Public Life (CSPL).
They fell foul of both MPs and the Government, however. The Members' Allowances Committee – which represent MPs in relation to their expenses – said the measures would create "considerable financial insecurity" for MPs. It warned that they would deter those from less affluent backgrounds or with families from standing for Parliament.
In its submission to Ipsa, the Government urged Ipsa to stick with the Kelly proposals. Dozens of individual MPs also wrote to Ipsa complaining about its plans. Several complained at suggestions they should give up their right to taxpayer-funded first-class rail travel.
There is also resistance to moves to curb the number of MPs who receive funding to maintain a second home, with those living close to London expected to commute daily instead. Some say they should have their expenses scrapped altogether in return for an increase in their pay from about £65,000 now to £100,000.
However, there has also been criticism of Ipsa that it appeared to water down some of the Kelly proposals. The watchdog has suggested that MPs could be given the chance to vote on the CSPL's recommendation that profits made on the sale of taxpayer-funded second homes be recouped.
And it has reopened the controversial issue of MPs employing members of their families, which the CSPL had said should be banned because of its potential for abuse.

Norah Jones' third album has become her third No. 1 as "Not Too Late" (Blue Note) sold 405,000 copies in its first week of release.
Jones disc charted at No. 1 in 15 countries, including the U.K., Brazil, Canada, France and Germany as well as Japan's international chart. Amazon.com reported earlier that the disc was the most pre-ordered title in its history; the site was selling the disc for $9.99.
Sales tally is the highest for a solo female artist since Beyonce's "B'Day" sold 541,000 in early September.
Jones will appear tonight on "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno" and Sunday in a "60 Minutes" feature. She will also perform on "The Late Show With David Letterman" on Valentine's Day.
Three years ago, Jones' second album, "Feels Like Home," sold 1.022 million copies. Released just prior to Valentine's Day, it was part of the biggest non-holiday sales week in SoundScan history.
Her 2002 debut, "Come Away With Me," developed more slowly, selling 2.9 million copies before it hit No. 1 — 11 months after its release.
The second place finisher from last season's "American Idol," Katharine McPhee, saw her self-titled RCA debut sell 116,000 copies in the week ended Sunday, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
Among the five "Idol" second-place finishers, McPhee is squarely in the middle of first week sales: Clay Aiken's "Measure of a Man" (613,000 sold) and Bo Bice's "The Real Thing" (227,000) have opened ahead of her; Justin Guarini's self-titled album (57,000) and Diana DeGarmo's "Blue Skies" (47,000) sold fewer copies.

"None are so hopelessly enslaved as those who falsely believe they are free." – Goethe
"You are made up of millions and millions of 'programmed' beliefs about what is real and what's not real, what you should or shouldn't be or wear or say or do.
You have downloaded beliefs about how attractive you are, about your body, your intelligence, about God, sin, life after death, morality and class.
You have been innundated with disaster scenarios about the future of humanity – a global depression, an apocalypse, Armageddon, end times, depopulation, nuclear war, an Antichrist ruler and other disempowering, fear mongering, toxic propaganda.
If you stop and look closely at your thoughts and beliefs, you will discover that instead of serving you, they serve the agenda of the ruling families.
Although you may feel you are immune to religious and political propaganda, your immunity is overpowered by the repetition of messages that burrow into your subconscious just below your conscious radar.
The ruling families have taught you slave consciousness.
You tick tock through life with alarm clocks, car clocks, work clocks, the TV clock, the cell phone clock, wrist watches, wall clocks and calendars.
It's "breakfasttime", "lunch hour", "break time", "traffic hour", "news hour", "happy hour,", "dinner time", "bedtime", "pay your tax time".
You sit in traffic, stand in line-ups, watch mind numbing TV trivia interrupted by endless commercials.
You settle for a 14 days holiday out of the 365 days it takes for the Earth to circle the Sun.
You trade your labour for numbers at the bank.
You celebrate Birthdays, New Years, Valentine's day, St. Patrick's Day and very soon Margaret Thatcher day along with countless other repetitive cycles of commercialized nonsense without a single word of complaint.
From your cradle to your grave, you obediently tick-tock through life like an robot, dutifully serving the ruling families.
Despite your servitude, they have somehow convinced you that you are indeed free."
