How Events Play a Role in Developing Place
By Kevin Kinder
In the early days of the Fayetteville Roots Festival, Bryan Hembree just wanted something that fit Fayetteville, and roots-style music sounded right. As it turns out, that concept was bigger than any one stage, and he learned that hours before the first event. A pipe burst just before show time at the intended location, and he and co-creators Bernice Hembree and Jerrmy Gawthrop scrambled to move the bands they had booked to a different venue.
"We didn't draw a picture of it," Hembree says of the initial concept. "The idea was that it was for our community." The community responded that first night and many to follow. The Roots festival has swelled to multiple venues, multiple nights and multiple days of the year, as festival-affiliated acts are routinely brought to Fayetteville outside of the five-day festival window.
The Hembrees are just one of many who have discovered that community engagement and events can foster or bolster a sense of place.
Austin Barrow was hired to bring a similar sense of community to El Dorado, which was losing population at least in part to its status as an entertainment desert. The president and chief operating officer of the Murphy Arts District (MAD) was told more than once that he was crazy for moving back when everyone else was moving away or going elsewhere to find things to do. Research conducted by Barrow and a St. Louis-based consulting firm indicated the average El Dorado resident was going out of town two weekends per month in search of entertainment.
Further research conducted via focus groups and interviews with city residents gave Barrow direction about the kind of programming MAD should offer, and the spirit those performers should embody.
Armed with that knowledge and financial resources from Murphy Oil, who needs talented workers to stay around, MAD is providing reasons to be in El Dorado.
Some 26,000 people visited MAD facilities during the opening weekend of events last fall. It's worth noting El Dorado's population is only about 18,000, according to recent estimates. Visitors keep coming, and MAD keeps adding things for them to do, like the opening of a children's park called the MAD Playscape on May 19.
"The excitement hasn't died down," Barrow said. "We haven't really rolled everything out."
Barrow has been fielding an increasing number of questions about whether the successes of MAD can be duplicated elsewhere. He leans toward yes, but he offers qualifications, too.
"You have to have money. You can have a lot of great ideas, but without money, it doesn't go anywhere," he said.
Munnie Jordan, the director of the King Biscuit Blues Festival in Helena, knows that all too well. Twice retired from a role of executive director of the festival, but back at the helm in advance of the 2018 event in early October, Jordan says her nonprofit works at the capacity of its available funds. A successful year for her means attracting enough ticket buyers to pay the deposits for the acts she hopes to book the following year. It's not lucrative, but it's enough. And it's of critical importance to Helena, said Jordan, a lifelong resident.
She also knows why crowds return year after year.
"We have found a niche. That's the blues. That is our culture. That is our heritage," Jordan said.
For Hot Springs Documentary Film Festival executive director Jennifer Gerber, her niche is just as much the quirky resort town where the festival takes place as it is the world-class films that are screened each fall. Residents come for the films. They fall in love with the experience because of the town's flexibility, history, walkability and its bath houses. Kathleen Turner, the 2017 honorary chair of the festival, enjoyed the overall experience so much she extended her stay in town after the festival concluded. The way she embraced the festival is not unlike the way Hot Springs residents have adopted the documentary festival, now in its 27th year.
The response of the town serves as a lasting metaphor for what the festival offers Hot Springs and how entertainment events can define a place. And festivals like the documentary event in Hot Springs and those throughout Arkansas continue because of the resilience of those who believe it helps their community.
"This festival exists because this town still believes in it," Gerber said.

Buying a home upfront requires a substantial capital investment. The best solution for most individuals yearning for home ownership is a mortgage. Fixed-rate mortgages have predictability, making it easy to plan a budget around your monthly payments.
A mortgage company will offer various fixed-rate residential home loans. Though the interest rates on these loans remain fixed, your monthly payments might increase with a rise in mortgage insurance, real estate tax, or home insurance. Here are the different options for fixed-rate mortgages:
5-year Loan
This type of mortgage maintains a similar interest rate for the first five years of the loan. After this time, the loan changes to an adjustable one. The main benefit of this loan is the low-interest rate in its initial years. However, after the five years, your interest rates might rapidly increase depending on the current rate market index.
15-year Loan
This loan is quite attractive since it comes with lower interest rates. It allows the homeowner to build equity at a fast pace. This is because the credit has higher monthly payments compared to a 30-year loan.
30-year Loan
This is the least costly home loan. Though the credit typically has higher interest rates than 15-year mortgages, the monthly payment is low since it is spread out over thirty years. It is the best option for low-income families since it allows them to purchase seemingly expensive homes at low monthly costs.
15-year and 30-year home loans are the most common types of fixed-rate loans. Be wary of a no-cost loan option when signing for a fixed-rate loan. This means that the closing costs of your investment are rolled into your mortgage. Though it might look like a lucrative deal upfront, you will be paying interest on these closing costs over the life of your loan.

Emma Leaf is our Yoga Nidra teacher. She will be leading regular Friday evening sessions to nourish your whole body, mind and heart.
Emma will play healing sounds during these sessions with crystal singing bowls, shamanic healing instruments, chimes and a beautiful transformative gong!
Yoga Nidra (yogic sleep) is a wonderful deep relaxation which complements the efforts you make in your regular asana practice. It reduces daily stress by turning attention inward for your own healing awareness and cultivating a deep meditative state to help you find quietude and stillness.

We then lie down in Savasana (corpse pose) with soft blankets, bolsters and as many pillows as you wish to deeply rest your body while you are guided through a journey of great inner discovery.
Yoga nidra has many benefits:
Immediate physical benefits, such as reduced stress and better sleep
It can lower blood pressure, release muscle tension, slow your heart rate and regulate your breathing.
It can bring an incredible calmness, quietness and clarity
It has the potential to heal psychological and emotional wounds

The champion ghost,
Up close,
I couldn't see her,
She thirsted,
I refused to feed her.
I extended my hand through her hollow chest,
The moisture of her atmosphere stung at best,
The old poison I couldn't breath,
Produced from the heart I wouldn't feed,
Produced from the heart I often need,
To replenish my daily desire to grieve,
Her condition from my own inaction,
I keep reaching inside her spirit to grab a reaction,
She wouldn't move,
I searched for her better,
She wouldn't improve,
Petrified just stand and stare,
And focus on how we're getting each other no where.
I recessed, and matched her frequency,
I noticed she hasn't been saying much recently,
I figured the cat had her tongue,
Or I've bent her energy until she had none,
I waited,
And watched-
A word trickle down her lip, and stopped,
Before it hit,
The ground,
The awful sound,
Of shattered speech,
Right by her feet,
It harmed my ears,
It harmed the peace,
Unquiet decrease-
Of her and me,
Day in day out,
I need to shout,
She'd break like glass,
She takes a gasp,
Of air at last,
The storm has passed,
The awful point,
The awful past…

This month the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) will start mailing out the new Medicare cards to residents in Illinois.
In 2015, Congress passed the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act. This law requires the removal of Social Security numbers from all Medicare cards by April 2019 and the issuing of new Medicare cards to replace the old ones. This new initiative is to protect against fraud and identity theft. A new Medicare Beneficiary Identifier (MBI) will replace the Social Security Number (SSN)-based Health Insurance Claim Number (HICN) on the new Medicare cards for Medicare transactions like billing, eligibility status, and claim status.
The new Medicare card will have a completely different and randomly assigned identifier that will be 11 characters long, containing a mix of numbers and uppercase letters. This is the MBI. CMS is also removing the gender and signature line from the new Medicare card. The MBI is confidential like your SSN and should be protected as personal health information.
If a beneficiary is new to Medicare after April 2018, the beneficiary will receive the new MBI card. CMS has until April 2019 to mail out new cards to all 60 million national Medicaid beneficiaries. Current Medicare cards will be accepted until December 31, 2019, after which only the new MBI card will be accepted.
The new card will not impact current Medicare benefits or status. Beneficiaries are asked to destroy, not throw away, their old Medicare cards once the new one is received.
The Illinois Attorney General's office is warning residents about scams contacting you by email or phone asking you to confirm your Medicare number so they can send you a new card. If you need to update your mailing address you can do so online here or by calling 1-800-772-1213.

My Greek Weddings Adventure
Hello dear friends and followers,
I want to inform you that I am currently in Greece prior to weddings and have limited Internet connection. Have in mind that a bit of a delay can be occurred when you send me an inquiry or a message, so please be patient. I will try to respond as soon as I can. :)
Can not wait to come back to my office and show you weddings from beautiful Greek islands! :)
I have a privilege to reside in Limassol, Cyprus for two monhts. During my time on this wonderful island, I have visited Xristakis Taverna, a place where I witnessed a truly beautiful story.
Xristakis Taverna, like all traditional Cypriot taverns, is decorated with antique ornaments in a unique, but attractive manner. The ceiling is filled with remarkable vintage settings that are shaped to give the impression that you are just in the right place. With traditional lanterns hanging by a variety of metallic and fruit shape ornaments, the ceiling is simply attractive.

Captain America is dead. I don't think spoilers apply when the New York Daily News and other sources are talking about it and what it means politically. Captain America is a guy who first came on the scene by JACKING HITLER IN THE JAW!
and now he has been taken out by a sniper and seems to be truly dead (or at least as close to it you can be in the world of comic books). The whole things reminds me of the Death of Superman story from a few years ago, in as much as it seems to have people talking about comics and turning out to buy the issue in record numbers. Captain America, or "Cap" as he is affectionately known to fans has been kicking ass since World War II. He might not have been around as a certain Kryptonian, and Hollywood hasn't been as kind to him but Cap still holds serious iconic weight and him being Kennedy'ied is kind of a big deal.
Crash Course:
Steve Rogers was a patriotic and upstanding young man who wanted nothing more than to fuck shit up for the Nazis and serve the cause of freedom/democracy. Too bad for him he was a scrawny weakling that the Army rejected for active duty. But he still had serious game, so they used him as a guinea pig for the Super Soldier Serum. BAM! Now Steve had the muscles and agility to match his noble spirit, though not crazy powerful. He was always depicted as being at the peak of human ability, but couldn't through cars around or smash buildings with the Hulk. Soon enough, the powers that be gave him a spiffy red, white, and blue outfit with an indestructible shield and set him loose on the Krauts, Nips, and Eye-ties that were threatening 1940s stability. He had a number of WWII adventures, and was in the fight way before our country was officially. As a propaganda tool, he was at least partially used to drum up support for American involvement in the war. Michael Chabon has a pretty cool take on the whole affair (though it is fictionalized) in his book The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay Anyway, at the end of the war Cap gets frozen in arctic ice (don't ask.) In the sixties, he gets thawed out by the Avengers and he's been an integral part of the marvel universe ever since.
So now has been shot. He is dead. Will he stay dead? No, of course not. In the four-color world no one stays dead. Conventional wisdom holds that the only two deaths that are permanent are Spider-man's dead Uncle who taught him all about power and responsibility and Bucky, Captain America's old sidekick from World War II (don't ask,) But last year, they brought Bucky back, so everything is up in the air. Comic books are different from other forms of fiction in that they can never have a true narrative arc. Whereas a novel can kill off a main character as an organic part of the story and give the reader resolution, the ongoing monthly comic book is designed to be just that: ongoing. Resolution is anathema. There can be narrative arcs, but in most ways that count things have to be returned to the status quo for the character. Cap has been around for over fifty years, and it would be retarded to ill him off permanently. He is a vital part of the Marvel stable.
My prediction: even if he is "truly dead" for the purposes of the story he will be reborn within the next few years and back again. In the meantime, there will be stories that explore what a world with Cap is like, and someone else will probably take the mantle for a while. This has even happened before. Cap has never dies, but for a variety of reasons he has given up the costume and other people have taken up the shield.
Its playing right into Marvels' hands to discuss this in terms of the allegorical, but I happen to be a big fan of the writer who did the deed, and I think it might be interesting to explore what the symbol of America means by showing us what the world is like without him. I think Brubaker could do some interesting things with this, and so what if it ultimately gets reversed? The company has painted itself into a corner with its recent Civil War storyline, and offing Cap is one way to deal with the fallout (It's an extremely long story , but suffice it to say that Captain America has actually been imprisoned for leading a super-insurgency against a semi-totalitarian US Government.) So if nothing else, this will open some new storytelling opportunities. I would not like if Captain America turned into an episode of Oz.
Is the whole thing a gimmick? Maybe, but it went down way more under-the-radar than when Supes kicked the bucket, so the sales will only really increase for the second printings, which will not be as highly sought. But gimmicky or not, I don't have a problem with it. But his creator might have said it best. "It's a hell of a time for him to go. We really need him now,"

Week of December 17–23, 2015
Riders this past week: 7,143
Rider miles this past week: 99,942
We've had several sightings of the singer Adele taking the Hamptons Subway, but it might be just somebody who looks like her. She was sighted heading from Hampton Bays to Shinnecock on Wednesday morning and from Westhampton Beach to Speonk on Thursday morning. On Friday, she was seen riding the subway between Shelter Island and Sag Harbor, reading Dan's Papers when she burst into song. It definitely was not her, our spy says. This person sings way off key.
With the Army Corps of Engineers winding up their work rebuilding the dunes on the beach in downtown to protect Montauk from flooding, it turns out that the $9 million project will cost only $6 million. After some conversation with Hamptons Subway Commissioner Aspinall and the owners of some nightspots in Montauk, it's been decided to use the $3 million to dig new tunnels and install a new network of subway stops throughout Montauk connecting the major nightspots there. The stops will be at the Surf Lodge on Edgemere Street, Navy Beach on Navy Road, the Sloppy Tuna on Emerson Avenue downtown, Ruschmeyer's on Second House Road and the Crows Nest on West Lake Drive. The regular part of the subway system closes at 2 a.m. for nightly maintenance, but this new spur will close at 4 a.m. and make its own circular route around Montauk for all the partygoers.
There's not enough money for both up and down escalators at each station, so after considering having escalators at just half the stations, it has been decided to have just up escalators and, where a new down escalator might be put in the future, just have a long metal slide from street level so the partygoers can get down easily. Of course people can always use the stairs. The new subway line is a loop, and is designed so summer partygoers can party hop from one night spot to another without having to drive, which is a good thing because a lot of drinking goes on at these night spots.
The Montauk Loop Spur can be accessed at the regular downtown Montauk stop where riders come in from Amagansett, East Hampton and points west. There's a free transfer. Once on the Hamptons Subway you stay on the Hamptons Subway—but now you're on the Montauk Loop Spur party ride. You can leave Montauk by hopping off at downtown too, of course, and head home to the Hamptons to sober up. The Loop Spur should be open by May 1, if construction proceeds on schedule.
During the last half of December, riders on the Hamptons Subway, once they get onto a subway train, will be treated to a whole Christmas program on the PA system. After the lady says "Watch Out for the Closing Doors," the subway will begin to move and that will begin the recording. It begins with the crack of the whip, then the sound of jingle bells and the voice of Santa announcing all the reindeer, in order, followed with a finale Ho, Ho, Ho.
If there is remaining time after that before the train arrives at the next station, riders will be treated with a commercial over the PA from a local merchant or two. If interested in rates, call the Hamptons Subway line at 555-HAM-SUBWAY.
As my wife and I do every year, we will take our annual vacation on safari in Botswana over the Christmas and New Year holidays. Speaking for ourselves and the animals, I say Merry Christmas to you all.

Cricket on the Bobbin (and off the bobbin)
Cricket on the Bobbin
Originally uploaded by Frith.
And here it is washed and finished. The fiber is from Hello Yarn, and it's lovely stuff. It's the "cricket" colorway, exclusive to her fiber club.
Since I knew this would be sock yarn, I spun and plied with lots of twist to make a hard-wearing yarn.
See? Twisty. It still has some nice loft to it, and it will make some soft socks.
As far as spinning method, I didn't care about making matching socks, so I just divided the roving in half lengthwise for each bobbin. Then I split each half down the middle, pre-drafted a bit, and spun with a short forward draw, smoothing as I went for extra durability.
I have a bit left on one bobbin. Normally, I'd put any extra length into an Andean plying bracelet and keep going, but I was totally out of room on the bobbin. I'll ply it back on itself later to make a mini baby skein.
Since there's more than enough for knee-high socks, I'll probably use any extra in a colorwork project (hat or mittens, most likely).

Notable Scheme.
Let's take it back to when all the leaves were brown...and the sky was gray.
Notable Scheme.
This is a throwback cocktail. Aka, I made it and posted it back in the Fall before I had this blog and I miss it and want to talk about it and blah, blah, blah.
I know it seems long ago. And now it seems far away. But I don't give a damn.
I'll just consider this...planning way in advance.
This is one to spice up those taste buds and stir in all those awesome flavors to make the delightful season of Fall as vibrant as it can be. Fall is the time of change, and hopefully kind of change that we love. The kind of transition that we put our boots on for, and breathe in deeply as we stroll through the streets with the leaves crunching below our feet. So whatever's in store for this coming Fall— start it off smart. Take the time before making those big decisions, so you can be as bold as possible when the time comes. So what better way to bring in all that sophistication to our palate than with a lovely brandy cocktail?
So here's "Notable Scheme," one of my lovely autumn cocktails. A defined mouth-warming cocktail of apple and blackberry brandy with spikes of allspice to bring it all in. But careful, it's definitely a charming little devil that wants to be your friend, so pace yourself before it gets the best of you. Tin hats on, scholars. You're in it to win now.
Let's concoct:
- 1.5 oz Liard's Apple Brandy
- 1.5 oz Blackberry Brandy
- 0.25 oz Allspice Dram
*Shake with ice and strain into a chilled couple glass.
If you want to give it a go, you'll need...

The 'Sinking Atlantis' Tsunami Myth Debunked
In the summer of 2011 I watched the German documentary 'Expedition nach Atlantis' which implied a huge tsunami wavefront from the great Santorini eruption was responsible for a major destruction of Minoan Crete and decided some mythbusting was very much in order. The vast majority of tsunami destruction occurs during it's run-up and inundation on land. If you want to see if it's possible for a wavefront that's 20 to 30 meters (66 to 98 feet) high (max.) to cause the downfall of Minoan civilization then you need to reasonably accurately determine the land area on Crete inundated. The excellent new publication 'Modelling of tsunami generated by the giant Late Bronze Age eruption of Thera, South Aegean Sea, Greece', T. Novikova, G. A. Papadopoulos and F. W. McCoy specifies a variable tsunami wavefront that is up to 28 meters (92 feet) high (max.) and includes a low resolution 450 meter (492 yards) maximum inland inundation limit.
I've known it was impossible for any volcanic tsunami in the Aegean to destroy anything more than the very limited low elevation coastal zones on Crete for some years now because of my work on '
The Archaeological Sites of the Aegean Minoans
' GIS mapping project. This free geographical tool has aided the work of many hundreds of scholars over the last few years. While this would have been a terrible tragedy for those in the inundated coastal areas the simple truth is that Crete is mountainous with rising elevations that would quickly dwarf and reflect any tsunami wavefront back into the sea.
I've provided links to a slide show of seven map images derived from Google Earth to conclusively demonstrate this. These maps include most of the 'non-sensitive' Minoan archaeological sites on Crete, the 450 meter maximum inland inundation limit described in Novikova's paper, the 12 meter (39 feet) USGS ITST measured maximum run-up elevation from the 2004 tsunami in Sri Lanka, and the topographical elevation contours of 28 and 40 meters (92 and 131 feet) for a section of the coast north of Knossos.

Crete Tsunami Inundation Map 7
The tsunami expert Costas Synolakis who appeared in the documentary "Secrets of the Dead: Sinking Atlantis" broadcast in May 2008 claims to have a higher resolution inundation map of Crete that is accurate to within 50 meters. But, to the best of my knowledge, it remains unpublished and unavailable. Clues to the character of this map can be found in the documentary "Atlantis: The Evidence" broadcast in June 2010. While no inundation map is ever shown, it states - "It's been estimated that the Theran tsunami rose at least 65 feet [19.8 meters] above sea level in places and traveled up to five miles [8 kilometers] inland." This maximum wave height is significantly less than that of the Novikova paper. Also, you can see exactly where this 5 mile penetration must have occurred in my map - the deep river valley west of Knossos.
Late in the show Bettany Hughes queries Costas Synolakis and the archaeologist Alexander "Sandy" MacGillivray on their vision of the tsunami destruction of Minoan Crete. Costas states, "In our view the impact of the Minoan tsunami in Crete was very similar to the impact of the Boxing Day tsunami, the 2004 tsunami in Sri Lanka." "We think that the size of the wave off Amnisos here was very similar to the size of the wave off Sri Lanka. So this is a very good sort of analogy to try to visualize what it must have looked like to the Minoans, the wave coming in."
While the incoming wavefront probably appeared similar, he fails to mention Sri Lanka's coastlines are replete with large very low elevation flood plains that are highly susceptible to tsunami damage. This comparison to the mountainous coastlines of Crete is ludicrous and utterly invalid. With Costas' inundation map unavailable, we've added the Sri Lanka International Tsunami Survey Team's (ITST, 2005) measured maximum run-up elevation of 12 meters to our map. Their exact statement is that run-up "varied from less than 3 meters to more than 12 meters."
The heights of the incoming tsunami waves from the great eruption seen along the coastlines of Minoan Crete would have been quite variable as determined by, among other factors, the focusing and defocusing effects of the off/nearshore underwater terrain (bathymetry). Once onshore it's path of destruction would be influenced by anything in front of it but especially by the land's topography. Only in places where the overall focusing of the wave was greatest would the tsunami have any hope of topping the 40 meter elevation contour while in other places it would have been well within the 12 meter Sri Lanka ITST maximum elevation limit or Novikova's 450 meter inland inundation limit.
After Costas states, "30,000 people died in Sri Lanka in only a few minutes." Bettany asks, "So if you've got 70% of the population dying, what do you think, Sandy, that says about what happened to Crete because most people live along the coast, don't they?" Sandy responds, "I think so, there's the city Knossos which is inland but otherwise it's very much open coastline, unprotected harbors and so the death toll would have been staggering, phenomenal." To the best of my knowledge, MacGillivray has never presented any evidence in support of this statement of personal belief. This must be because there simply is none. He completely ignores the rich and growing Minoan archaeological record on Crete as our maps amply show. This is a very sad chapter in what is otherwise a very informative, excellent documentary.
I hope this helps to finally put to an end the utterly unfounded myth of a wide spread destruction of mountainous Crete by tsunami and the absurdity that most of the Minoans lived on the coast within the inundation zones which comprise less than 1% of the land area of Crete. With the demise of this myth there is now only one well established volcanic phenomenon actually capable of reaching out and causing a significant destruction of the Minoans left standing with its validity intact - pyroclastic surge.
This is more precisely described as a titanic explosive venting of a roughly consolidated pool of about 3 or more cubic kilometers of seawater swallowed by the magma and held for long enough to be heated to something near to it's ambient temperature of about 1,100°C (2,012°F). Because of the water to steam volume expansion of about 1,600 times this translates into 4,800 or more cubic kilometers of super-heated dry steam supersonically ejected with jaw-dropping force onto the surface of the Aegean. This is the same volume expansion that drives most of the world's power plants.
Perhaps there was no Santorini based destruction of ancient Crete but while building this case I came to re-examine the evidence for the effects of a high temperature steam pulse on Crete that I originally researched about two or three years ago. The more I look at it the more perfectly the so-called Late Minoan IB destruction event (horizon) describes the expected effects from a steam pulse. Most papers that take a serious look at this period have a primary association with a wide spread fire destruction of central and eastern Crete. Besides the "disappearance" of Linear A writing which was well distributed throughout this area at the time of the eruption perhaps the strongest evidence is from the archaeomagnetics which seems to indicate a uniform very high temperature heating on Crete. Particles of magnetite contained in mud bricks were thermally demagnetized at above their Curie temperature of about 600°C (1,112°F) and were then permanently realigned to the earth's prevailing magnetic field on cooling.
W. S. Downey, D. H. Tarling. "Archaeomagnetic Results from Late Minoan Destruction Levels on Crete and the 'Minoan' Tephra on Thera". "Thera and the Aegean World III". Volume Three: "Chronology", Proceedings of the Third International Congress, Santorini, Greece, pp. 146 - 159, 3-9 September 1989.
The following article has always intrigued me because I've long thought that if ever a definitive link between the eruption and Crete's fire destruction was found it would be through detailed soil analysis. I wonder if some of the information in this article can be connected to a supersonic steam pulse as opposed to conventional ash fall.
G. Cadogan, R. K. Harrison. "Evidence of Tephra in Soil Samples From Pyrgos, Crete". C. Doumas (Ed)., "Thera and the Aegean World I". London, pp. 235 - 255, 1978.
If this is true, snapping the Late Minoan IB destruction event into chronological alignment with the great eruption will have profound and wide ranging implications. Many now comfortable assumptions will have to be seriously questioned and discarded. But much more importantly I hope the potential hazards of some of the world's active volcanoes are re-assessed to appropriately include the incredibly dangerous risk of blasts of super-heated steam.
Here's a time-lapse YouTube video of the interior of a high-intensity forest fire (with temperatures) that shows just how terrible of a destruction this would have been.

Twins have to get used to sharing--but these two brothers will always have something unique that the other can't claim: a birthday.
Wait--that's one thing that identical twins by definition must have in common, right? Not always. In really rare cases, doctors can do what's called a "delayed internal delivery" in case either twin needs to stay in utero longer. That's just what's happening to one Washington couple, Nick and Holli Gorveatt, whose first son, Link, was born at 23 weeks this past September.
Brother Logan, however, has a due date of January 2016.
"It's very surreal to be post-partum and pre-partum," Holli told ABC's Seattle affiliate KOMO-TV.
Um, we would think so! In fact, according to their doctor, Dr. Martin Walker, this family's case may be the longest interval between twin births ever documented. Here's their remarkable story.

The art form that is rock 'n' roll never fails to enchant us with artists who forge eternal works that somehow fail to garner the acclaim they so richly deserve until long after they were initially created.
Witness the illustrious, influential Arthur Lee and Love. The original version of this Los Angeles based collective fused garage, folk, jazz, flamenco, baroque, psychedelic and hard-rock into a magnificent canon which culminated with their magnum opus Forever Changes (1967) – an album which stands with The Beatles' Sgt. Pepper (1967), and the Beach Boys' Pet Sounds (1966) as a masterpiece of its era.
Along with innovative guitarists/composers Johnny Echols and Bryan MacLean - bassist Ken Forssi was brilliant in his support of the compositions, rendering passages brimming with soulful rhythms, glissandos, contrapuntal harmonies, and heavy riffs aplenty.
When Lee broke up that band in 1968, Love essentially became his solo vehicle for a series of releases that reached even less of an audience. To my ears, Love's first three LPs: Love (1966), Da Capo (1967) and the aforementioned Forever Changes – all with Forssi, who passed in 1998, are endlessly fascinating.
Kudos to the indie and alternative rockers who re-discovered the all-but-forgotten Love, and brought Arthur Lee back to the stage with a Forever Changes revue shortly before he passed in 2006.

In the framework of the next SESAR Innovation Days, to be held at the University of Belgrade (Serbia), PACAS organises the tutorial session "Participatory architectural change management in Air Traffic Management system". The session will be held on Wednesday, 29th of November 2017 (h. 14:30-16:30). Participation is free and open but, due to space constraints, registration is required!
The Tutorial
Air Traffic Management (ATM) systems are complex systems of systems. Understanding all possible consequences of a design decision in an ATM system is a challenge due to the complexity of ATM systems and the existence of tight interdependencies within the ATM architecture. Knowing the implications of change(s) over the whole system is crucial to support decision-making, while making sure that the ATM system does not suffer from any issues with respect to functionality, safety, security, performance, cost efficiency, or other desired characteristics of a well-functioning ATM system. Given that decision-making involves the consideration of more high-level objectives, the change management process should involve multiple ATM domain stakeholders, one for each given objective, in order to explore a vast space of alternatives and agreeing on optimal solutions. It becomes, thus, crucial the active participation of stakeholders. However, given the variety of experts, their different areas of expertise, as well as their geographical distribution, participatory change management requires user engagement and tools to support and facilitate the work of experts along their interaction.
To address the first concern, in recent years, gamification is broadly used as a tool to engage participation with the help of elements, such as leader-boards or challenges between users. On the other hand, a multi-perspective, model-based approach provides important benefits in that:
1. it allows analyzing individual perspectives without the need of a holistic representation;
2. it handles complexity through automated reasoning techniques in a transparent way to find optimal solutions as a trade-off among different objectives.
We provide an overview of the participatory change management process, emphasizing the importance of active stakeholder participation. We describe the two main support tools, i.e. gamification for stakeholder engagement, and automated reasoning techniques for handling complexity.
Focus on: Participatory process, Gamification & Automated reasoning techniques
We introduce the PACAS approach, expressly created for architectural change management in ATM systems. We briefly describe an ATM example case study dealing with the Sectorless change issue, and conclude with a demo of the framework.
Focus on: ATM case study & Demo
We are looking forward to meeting you in Belgrade!

Brown butter pecan financiers
"You have to record the miracles," she said.
I'm in the front seat and the first thing she asks is, "How did it go ...."
"The Lord answered every single prayer and then some."
"Abby...that's amazing." Her face is beaming. "You HAVE to record the miracles."
I take that statement and tuck it away with about a thousand other hints at my heart for writing. She's right.
It's Monday. Work day who-knows-how-many of so many that we stopped keeping count a long time ago and we're carpooling, chatting away and I'm not sure if her weekend revelations on anxiety and exhaustion weren't intended more for me than her. Being 13 years older I should be the one imparting regular wisdom but that's rarely the case. In life we brush up against each other, hopefully refining each other. Those are the relationships worth keeping. The ones that show you you for better or worse while simultaneously showing you the Lord. That same Lord, the master of silver linings, makes good on everything. And as she carries on with talk of dreaming big and renouncing fear I'm smiling to myself at how with every twist and turn of her adventure of growing up in the city I am reminded of my own. And also of how I've allowed one of my favorite parts of myself to drift away unnoticed. The part that dreams. Big.
It, this adventure, has been nothing short of 10,000 miracles.
A daily miracle of redemption and healing fraught with plenty of growing pains as any good story of redemption should be. The Lord is thorough. A miracle of friendship, faith, and financial provision. Of professional accomplishment beyond wildest dreams. And those are just the surface obvious ones. What of the utter miracle of simple, complete forgiveness? Of soul freedom from reams of condemnation? Or the miracle flicker flame of joy that somehow refuses to be extinguished by torrential rain or circumstance? In the past year alone they seem to have been bunched together thick, the miracles. Or maybe it's just that the Lord has mercifully granted the ability to perceive them.
That changes everything.
It's one of the most miraculous works of all - the gift of sight for the hand of the Lord in everything. The lens of faith over the lens of fear. And the miracle of the extravagant grace that calls to us, equips us to remain in His Story. Even through slow moving chapters and heart-wrenching twists. Somehow I've been less diligent about writing it all down even though my heart longs to. We're storytellers and story lovers. We get that from our Father, you know...
So many miracles. And you, Rach, are one of my favorites. An answer to prayer if there ever was one and your story, our story too, is gold. Happiest Birthday to you today. This is the best gift I could think to give. You are loved and rejoiced over. What is this life we have and this sweet season we are in? This laugh out loud adventurous life steeped in food and courage. The Lord. Is. Grace. And you are quick to remind me that He is faithful to establish the work of our hands before us. Yours is a faith that begets wisdom far beyond your 23 years and it's that wisdom that grasps the urgency of recording the miracles. The loud ones and the quiet ones too. All of them. Because all is miraculous grace. And thanks to your faith, the next time the sky is falling and the hope of a miracle seems hopeless (because this is life and we are, after all, human) we'll look on all the miracles of the Lord recorded, offer up hearts of praise instead, and remember that He's forever working new ones.
It's taken time to find my way back here. Writing's less like riding a bike and more like training for a marathon: the reward comes from dedication to the long term. There will be posts regrettable in word and form. There already are. And it takes all of me to not edit and delete which is the opposite of recording. But here we are. Getting words down, recording the miracles. I have a new food styling workshop coming up in September. And another in January. That's a miracle. The fact that this recipe is finally out in the world is also a miracle. Written almost a year ago the surrounding text has changed a half a dozen times and landed right back in the middle of the summer peach season. Even the littlest things work out exactly as they're meant to.
If you only ever make one thing that I post for the rest of time, let it be these. Take liberty with whatever you tuck into the tops. Sliced pears or lightly caramelized apples would be lovely too.
In the bowl of a food processor pulse the pecans until finely ground. Add the powdered sugar, buckwheat flour, and salt and pulse to combine. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, swirling on occasion until browned and fragrant. Set aside to cool slightly. Whisk the egg whites in a large bowl until frothy. Pour in the flour mixture and stir to combine. Add the brown butter and whisk until incorporated. Cover and chill until firm, at least 2 hours or overnight.
To make the streusel combine the flour, sugar, and salt in the same food processor bowl (no need to wash.) Add the butter and pulse 5-6 times. Add the pecans and pulse until mixture comes together in clumps. Cover and refrigerate until ready to bake.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Generously oil and flour 12 financier molds or muffin cups. Distribute the batter evenly and top with streusel. To fry the sage heat the butter over medium heat until it begins to brown drop sage leaves in 3-4 at a time and fry until crisp. Remove to paper towel. Slice the figs into rounds or long slices. Whatever looks pretty and fits your cups. Top each financier with a fried sage leaf and sliced figs and/or peaches.
3/4 cup pecans
1 1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/3 cup buckwheat flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
4 large (4 ounces) egg whites
Streusel (recipe below)
2 tablespoons butter
12 sage leaves
4 figs
1 peach
Fine sea salt
For the streusel
1/2 cup gf flour
1/4 cup coconut sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup cold butter, diced
1/2 cup pecans

65 Attend Anshei Darom Regional Retreat
Above: 65 men attended the 2016 Anshei Darom regional retreat Feb 19-21 at Camp Ramah Darom
By Steve Krodman
The Anshei Darom regional retreat is an annual event in which members of Men's Clubs throughout the southeast meet at Camp Ramah Darom for a weekend of learning, religious observance, camaraderie, and just plain fun.
This year's retreat had near-record attendance, with 65 men present – 46 from Georgia, 14 from Tennessee, and seven from the Carolinas. Georgia's contingent included five attendees from Augusta and the remainder from six Atlanta-area synagogues: Etz Chaim, Beth Shalom, B'nai Torah, Gesher l'Torah, Congregation Ariel, and Kol Emeth. The 33 attendees from Etz Chaim's Men's Club made up the largest single delegation.
The guest speaker for the weekend was Stan Greenspan, Executive V.P. of the Federation of Jewish Men's Clubs (FJMC), the mission of which is to involve Jewish men in Jewish life by building and strengthening men's clubs in the Conservative/Masorti movement. Stan's topics included discussions on teaching the importance of the Jewish state to our grandchildren, and the connection between the FJMC and the World Zionist Organization.
Rabbi Josh Barton of the West End Synagogue (Nashville, TN) and Rabbi David Sirull of Congregation Adas Yeshurun (Augusta, GA) provided Torah insights and musical entertainment. Rabbi Sirull is a well-known musician who performs under the sobriquet "The Redneck Rabbi," while Rabbi Barton demonstrated his expertise on that least typical Jewish musical instrument (at least as far as klezmer bands are concerned) – the bagpipes.
Other speakers at the retreat included Oded Shorer, representing the Israeli Consulate, and Guy Tessler, president of Conexx, who spoke on the politico-cultural and economic ties between the United States and Israel.

Learn an African Language
You may take classes in African languages, including Arabic, Swahili and Zulu, through individual college courses or degree programs in African languages or African/Africana studies. Learn about your language and course options, as well as the differences between various Africa-related programs. Schools offering Communications degrees can also be found in these popular choices.
How Can I Learn an African Language?
There are many ways to learn an African language. While bachelor's and master's degree programs specializing in Arabic - one of the most prominent African languages in the world - are widely available, degree programs in less common African languages are not as easily accessible. You can, however, find several programs specializing more broadly in African languages, African studies or Africana studies. These programs are available at the certificate, bachelor's, master's and doctoral levels.
If you don't want to pursue a degree, you have the option of taking stand-alone classes in African languages like Swahili and Zulu. Colleges and universities often provide resources on their websites for these languages, such as free vocabulary and pronunciation guides. Other universities may offer intensive language programs.
|Program Options
|Certificate, bachelor's, master's and doctoral programs in Arabic, African languages and African/Africana studies are available
|Common Courses in African Languages Programs
|Major African languages, such as Zulu, Wolof, Hausa and Swahili; African culture and traditions
|Common Courses in African/Africana Studies Programs
|African religion, society, music and women
|Common Courses in Arabic Programs
|Elementary, intermediate and advanced Arabic; Arabic culture, history and literature
What Will I Study in an African Languages Program?
Typically, African languages programs focus on four of the major African languages: Swahili, Zulu, Wolof and Hausa. These four languages cover large geographic areas of Africa. In addition to learning how to speak, write and understand these languages, you may be able to take the following courses, depending on your degree level:
- African culture
- African politics
- Oral tradition
- African literature
- African art
- Anthropology
What Will I Study in an African or Africana Studies Program?
Not all African and Africana studies programs provide instruction in African languages. Some certificate and bachelor's degree programs do; typically, however, master's degree programs focus on non-language topics, such as African people, politics and social structures. Such graduate programs may expect students to already be proficient in an African language.
Certificate programs that include language instruction generally provide you with a strong background in African culture. Some certificate programs are geared toward teachers who will be working with a high volume of refugees or African-American students. In addition to language, you may study African history, geography, U.S.-Africa relations or African art.
Bachelor's degree programs may offer African language courses or cover modern Africa and its politics. You'll also spend time studying the continent's religions, music, myths, languages and traditions. Other topics may include women in Africa.
What Will I Study in an Arabic Program?
During a bachelor's degree program in Arabic, you'll begin with introductory courses in the language and progress to advanced coursework. You may also explore special topics, such as culture, literature and various Arabic dialects. You will learn how to read, speak and understand Arabic in context. Part of the curriculum may consist of reading both ancient and modern texts in the language.
In a master's degree program in Arabic, you may have structured language-learning experiences with native Arabic speakers. In comparison to bachelor's degree programs, master's degree programs tend to have more in-depth courses, usually offering advanced classes on Arabic society, literature and history. All or some of these courses may even be offered in the Arabic language itself. Some graduate programs may require you to pass an Arabic proficiency test in order to graduate.

Today I'm going to use my blog as an outlet to comment on something that I just saw on Yahoo!'s News Marquee. There was no place to comment so I'm taking it here.
It was a news story about a 12 years old boy getting suspended twice from his middle school for wearing a rosary. He contested the suspension with a federal judge. The school stated that the rosary beads were a "gang symbol". The federal judge over-ruled the school saying that "the suspension violates his right to free speech and religious expression".
This is my OMG moment! OMG! What has this world come to when someone considers rosary beads as being gang related. We have become so intolerant; scared that everything that is said or done is a sign of terrorism or hatred. We need to use a little more common sense. If I saw someone wearing rosary beads*, that would touch my heart. Maybe the school should listen to why the boy was wearing them in the first place before passing judgement.
The reason why he was wearing them..."in memory of his brother, who died clutching them after a bike accident".
*To me, it's obvious that this boy has not attended Catholic school. I remember learning about the rosary in kindergarten. I also remember Mike R. getting reprimanded for wearing it around his neck. It was not supposed to worn as a necklace as it was a sign of disrespect.
Sidenote: I just Googled "rosary etiquette". And it says that the wearing of the rosary is exceptable if used "with respect and personal devotion". It is sacrilegious to "wear it contrary to it's purpose or as fashion jewelry".

Wow...what is the world coming to? That is horrible! I'm glad that the boy fought it...how sad. Never knew that it's okay to wear the rosary around your neck. I remember it being drilled into our brains it wasn't ok.

In Thailand where the Buddhism and Hinduism influences most part of the culture, it is no surprise to find people dodging and poking their faces looking for their precious amulet. There are several amulet market across the country, but the most famous one remains the Bangkok one. It's located by Tha Phra Chan Pier, near Thammasat University. This fascinating market also occupies the space on both sides of the pavement along Tha Maha Rat Pier and Tha Phra Chan Pier. The most densely area are by the Tha Phra Chan Pier and inside the small Maha That Lane (Trok in Thai).
Potential buyers includes collectors, monks, taxi drivers as well as people in more adventurous career. In Thai, the amulets are sacred that we can actually sell. We call it "rent" for the act of selling. Amulets are grouped according to style or sometimes just scattered in a bucket. Buyers will need each own's skill in selecting the authentic, if exist, style or material they specifically look for. There is no harm in bargaining. If you know how to look through those magnifying glasses, you can own one for a really bargaining price.
Some find it odd to see monks trading and purchasing stuff. It's worth noting that many of the genuine amulets have ancestry based upon monks and temples. People love to have some kind of security, if not physically, then emotionally should work. These amulets are big part of Thai culture. Many temples give amulets as a gift for those who donated while many parents want their kids to hang one around their neck to school. Despite strict rules against jewellery, most schools don't prohibit hanging amulets.
The amulet market in Tha Phra Chan Pier is open every day with hundreds of thousands of amulets available for collectors to hunt for one. It becomes such a serious business like any other kinds of things you collect like rare coins, stamps, or baseball cards. The experts who get the right amulets usually make a good fortune.
One of the rarest markets you will ever experience in your lifetime. Besides amulets, there are other kinds of charms or superstitious stuff you can find here at the market including figures of different shapes and meanings. There is no admission fee. Although it attracts a really niche group of people, the market reflects an authentic way of living which is worth having a peak especially when you're already around the old town are for Grand Palace.

What is malaria?
Malaria is a mosquito-borne disease caused by any one of four different blood parasites, called Plasmodium.
How is malaria spread?
Malaria is spread by the bite of an infected Anopheles mosquito. With certain malaria species, dormant forms can be produced which may cause relapses of malaria months to years later. Malaria may also be transmitted by transfusion of blood from infected people or by the use of contaminated needles or syringes.
Who gets malaria?
Any person residing in or traveling to a country where malaria is prevalent is at risk for contracting the disease. Malaria is currently a problem in tropical or subtropical areas of Asia, Africa and Central and South America. Most black Africans show a natural resistance to some species of malaria. Otherwise, susceptibility to malaria is universal.
What are the symptoms of malaria?
Symptoms include fever, chills, sweats, headaches, and in some instances may progress to jaundice, blood coagulation defects, shock, kidney or liver failure, central nervous system disorders and coma. Cycles of chills, fever and sweating occurring every one, two or three days is a good indicator of malaria in a person recently returning from a tropical area.
How soon do symptoms appear?
The time between the infective mosquito bite and the development of malaria symptoms can range from 12 to 40 day depending on the type of Plasmodia involved. One strain of Plasmodium, called P. vivax, may have a prolonged incubation period of eight to 10 months. When infection occurs by blood transfusion, the incubation period depends on the number of parasites transferred but is usually less than two months.
When and for how long is a person able to spread malaria?
Direct person-to-person transmission does not occur, however, untreated or inadequately treated cases may be a source of mosquito infection for one to three years depending of the strain of Plasmodium. Stored blood products can remain infective for 16 days.
What is the treatment for malaria?
Due to the changing pattern of drug-resistant strains, current recommendations can be obtained from your physician. Oral administration of chloroquine would be the primary treatment For emergency treatment of adults with serious illness, diluted IV quinine dihydrochloride may be administered.
What can be done to prevent the spread of malaria?
Since malaria is not native to the United States, exposure to American citizens occurs most frequently during foreign travel to areas endemic for malaria. It is very important to contact health officials to determine the proper preventive drug therapy. The liberal and frequent use of mosquito repellents as well as using a bed net can be very effective in preventing mosquito bites.
This fact sheet is for informational purposes only. It should not be used for self-diagnosis or as a substitute for consultation with a health care provider. If you think that you may have this infection, or have questions about the disease described above, you should consult your health care provider.

"Like snow in summer or rain in harvest, so honor is not fitting for a fool." Proverbs 26:1
Devotional Thought For The Day
Since most people do not experience "snow in summer," perhaps the better point of comparison for us is "rain in harvest." However, many people are so removed from agrarian experience that they may have never considered this problem. First, rain ruins hay that has been cut and is "drying" for the proper time of baling. Second, some crops like wheat and corn need to dry out to an optimal moisture content prior to being harvested and stored. Third, rain can make fields so muddy that the crops can't be harvested. I'm not a farmer, so there may be even more problems that rain in harvest causes that I'm unaware of. One can imagine the trouble this might cause for harvesting root crops like potatoes or sugar beets. After spending several months tending to these crops, and investing a good deal of money in them, you can imagine the frustration and irritation that Fall rains bring to farmers – who just want to get their crops in safely and profitably.
Snow in summer is also out of place. In higher elevations this can happen, and perhaps closer to the poles. We've had camping trips where it snowed on us in June, and also the first week of August. Such wet, cold, and miserable camping is not exactly what you have in mind when you plan, set vacation dates, pack all the gear, and trek to the campground. Also, summer snow can be devastating to trees and bushes that are fully leafed – and to the electrical lines they tend to fall on. It is abnormal, out of place, inappropriate, and irritating to have to endure – just like the honor that is often bestowed upon fools, and sadly, there is plenty of this phenomenon that occurs in our world today. Sometimes it is just completely baffling how certain people are "honored." But there is always a larger context – honors are bestowed on the basis of certain criteria, and those criteria are set by groups of people who espouse certain things, and groups of human beings, in that we are all sinful, often become confused about truth, reality, and what is truly honorable, and so it is and always has been the case that honor is bestowed foolishly on "fools." Understanding the phenomenon, however, doesn't make it any more palatable, or any less irritating – especially when the fools then parade their "honors" and elevate themselves. Lord, have mercy!
So true wisdom always takes these things into consideration, and recognizes that not all "honor" is truly honorable. The corruption that is often involved in the procuring of earthly "honors" makes this something to generally avoid, although we should always do our best and work hard at accomplishing honorable things. We need to understand that simple things like motherhood, faithful and decent fathers, honesty, loyalty, refusal to compromise principle, steadfast endurance in faith, faithfulness in following Jesus – these are never "honored" by worldly people, but they are certainly honorable and rewarded by God, though usually not in this life. We should also remember that when worldly dynamics enter the life of the church, like the bestowing of honors, it is difficult to keep the corruption and perversion out. There is little more saddening than to have to observe the honoring of fools even within the church!
This wise observation of the author does not change the sinful unreality that we live within in this fallen and darkened world of sin. All of this makes us grateful for God's gracious mercy and forgiveness in Christ Jesus, and all the more eager for the imposition of reality in the life which is to come. So we take care in giving "respect to whom respect is owed" and "honor to whom honor is owed" – but we also remember that "honor is not fitting for a fool."
Prayer For The Day
Dear Lord Jesus, You went without earthly honor in Your time of ministry and in earning redemption and salvation for us. Remind us that all good comes from You, that all honor belongs to You. Help us to be discerning about earthly honor – to give it where it is due, and to endure when it is given to fools. Keep us firm in following You, denying ourselves, and taking up our crosses. Amen.


text: When a need emerges in society there is often a person who sees this need and strives to rectify the problem causing the need. We could say this person receives a charism (or gift) from God to act. Often people gather around this person to help the newly emerging leader achieve this goal. We might call this newly formed group a creative minority. It has been said across history that creative minorities shape the world. I am doing some research on this topic and would be most grateful if you could spare 10 or 15 minutes to complete a two page creative minorities survey by clicking below.Click here to take survey
