Where two or more are gathered.....
Our congregation had its beginnings in the late summer of 1952 when a few people gathered at a sandy beach in Manor Park on a Sunday morning to pray. A few weeks later, there were eight families assembled around a few picnic tables and soon Sunday school classes began for the children. This multi-denomination community continued to grow and began to seek a shelter.
In 1955 a small cottage located at 5915 Lakeshore Road was purchased. With the demise of Lakeside Park pavilion came first raw material – wood that was used to transform the cottage into our first home of worship. Men, women and children pulled and hammered out old nails from the boards so others could renovate the structure. Women provided lunches for the workers.
Three families signed personal loans for additional materials. Local organizations and churches, such as Westminster and First Presbyterian, offered encouragement and support. The Lakeshore Mission Church was served by the Rev. Benjamin Heideman for one year. Our first pastor was a student, the Rev. James Hill, who served 1957-58. He was very helpful in the organization of our growing church.
The little community continued to develop and grow. We were officially organized as a congregation within the United Presbyterian Church, N.A. in 1961 with 93 charter members during the pastorate of the Rev. Stanley V. Anderson. The manse was also purchased. Fifteen years later we had to sell the property to make way for the Detroit Metro Department water tunnel. In 1969 nine acres of land was purchased at 5235 Lakeshore. It was at this location that our current church was constructed and then dedicated on October 11, 1970 under the pastorate of Rev. Hubert Sunderman.
The Grace of God personal sacrifices, abundant hope, and hard work have made it possible for the ministry we have today.
To God be the glory, Great things He has done.

Cigars and drinks can be a winning combination when done right. There are many cigar aficionados who struggle to pair their drinks with their cigars in a way that best compliments each other. If you are wanting to find the best drinks to pair with your cigars whether thats a scotch whisky or even beer there are a few ways to figure it out.
Personal Taste
Just like choosing cigars, your personal preferences and tastebuds determines everything. Look to your palate for the answers you seek. In some ways refining your smell and taste is a skill to be mastered, with many spirit connoisseurs and cigar makers top in their fields for doing this.
Perhaps you have experienced this with an aficionado, simply by smelling and smoking a cigar they can give a detailed account for it, type of tobacco, where it came from and even more. Similar to master distillers who can smell hints of different flavors within their barrels. This doesn't come easy and does take many years to even begin to master.
Cigar and Drink Pairing
There are a few classic pairings with cigars that you can't really get wrong and they are are single malt whisky, bourbon, cognac, rum, rye and port. These are all dark spirits which compliment the complex flavors of cigars nicely.
Excluding tequila, white spirits generally don't mix well with cigars and they include vodka and gin. This is because cigars are overpowering of these light spirits.
The trick here, is to choose a drink that won't over power the cigar and vice versa.
It is also possible to match red wines and beers with cigars, when done correctly. This takes some time to figure out but you can always try it out.
Pair the Cigar Type with the Drink Type
Although that may sound strange, if you have a light bodied cigar then try to pair it with a light bodied drink, for example a white wine, blended scotch and even a young red could work.
Medium bodied cigars would work well with most Irish whiskey, rums, bourbons and ports.
Full bodied cigars are the perfect match for heavy, single malts.
Cigars and Beer
Not unheard of, pairing cigars with craft beers does work well. The judge is your tastebuds so if you love to drink beer and smoke a cigar you will eventually find that perfect combination.
When it comes to pairing cigars with drinks or cigars and whisky there really is no strict guide to follow. It all comes down to your personal taste buds and preferences so the best thing we can recommend is to try things out! If you happen to live near a cigar and whisky bar then definitely check them out. The staff should be able to provide you with the best pairing and you can always take that knowledge home with you. Just remember the biggest take away from this is to match your cigar body with the spirit/drink, ie. a light bodied cigar will pair with a blended scotch, white wine or young red.

I want you to get to knwome so I decided to tell you a little bit about me.
If you want to know more let me know with likes or even a comment I would gladly tell you more about me.
My Name is Patrick Claus Paolucci and I am 23 years old and born in Germany.
My Parents wanted to leave Germany because of health issues, so they started driving. With two kids in the back seats, my parents wanted to drive to Italy but got hindered at the border at the Czech Republic due to the War that was ongoing at that time so new plans had to come.
They decided to take the ferry to the Island Crete, Greece and due to the bad weather, I got 2 years old on the ferry.
So I grew up in Greece where I lived and went to school.
The school I went to was an Art school (Καλλιτεχνικο Σχολειο Ηρακλειου) of which only three exist in whole Greece. What makes this Art school so special is that you not only have every normal subject you need to learn but also subjects such as Art, Theater, and dance where you have to decide for one main Subject. I chose theater, in which we learned everything we could about costumes, singing, monologues and even the right presence on stage.
When I was 13 years old I wanted to start Martial Arts, but literally, nobody accepted since I had no knowledge at all and it was the middle of the year so I started dancing, to be more precise Hip Hop but only Choreographies.
What I loved, and still love about dance, is that I finally was accepted for who I was. In school and at home I was pretty introverted but through dance classes, I got more confident.
Now I dance 9 years in total and I have been through a few styles, what is pretty good in my opinion. Some of them are Hip Hop freestyle and Choreographies, House, Locking, Popping, Breaking, Contemporary (lyrical), Contemporary (abstract), Classical Ballett, Tap Dance, Capoeira, Reaggetton, and Jazz. 2012 I did my first two own choreographies which were performed at my graduation. I decided that after I graduate I wanted to move to Germany and study theater in Hamburg. When I arrived there I understood that what I really wanted, Dance so we took the last bit of money we had and drove to Essen where I hoped to get into the Folkwang but that was just the beginning of a pretty crazy journey.

Once again Froula Alarms goes above and beyond the call of duty.
One of our customers had an ongoing challenge, they wanted to be able to utilize their existing rooftop camera and speaker system (which Froula had installed) specifically to verbally notify and remind unauthorized, after-hour guests of the site policies. They wanted to be able to utilize the camera microphones from their on-site management office computers. This request was not out of the realm of our technician's capabilities. so, he accomplished this effortlessly. But the exceptional achievement, above and beyond, was that he was able to connect management's smart phones to the rooftop system, providing voice access from anywhere: different buildings, off-site locations, anywhere there are cellular signals.
Our customer was quite impressed and pleased with the extra effort our technician successfully applied to take their request one step further. Froula continues to strive for excellence, which is why we are continually rated number one in the Puget Sound Region.

It is January 2012, and whenever the calendar page is turned to a new year, the fresh start brings an upsurge of hope and excitement. This is the feeling here in the "bricks and mortar" heart of the PWS community, a.k.a. the offices of PWSA (USA). We know, though, that the lifeline of everything we do here is actually all of the individuals with PWS, and those who care for them, all around the world! And we wish all of you a happy, healthy, and peaceful 2012!
We also wanted to bring you a summary, as we look ahead through the months of this year, of all the different ways you, and your extended families, friends, acquaintances and communities can help us raise awareness of PWS and build an even stronger support network. As stated in an earlier blog post, "at PWSA (USA), serving, supporting, and strengthening families is a key part of our mission. In fact, a commitment to families is part of the "DNA" of PWSA (USA) because we were started over 30 years ago by a few families who gathered together to create the support they could not find anywhere else. Because of their commitment and vision, PWSA (USA) exists today to serve a new generation of people and families living with PWS." As PWSA (USA) continues the important and crucial work of providing assistance to and improving the lives of individuals with PWS, the following efforts are ways in which you are able to give the work we are doing a "thumbs up":
- The Angel Card and "This Is My Association": You have all received your Angel Card brochure in the mail, and many of you were the first to see the "This Is My Association" video during our National Conference in Orlando in November. If you and your family members have already donated to this effort through the Angel Card Campaign, thank you! If you would like to view the "This Is My Association" web page, the link is www.thisismyassociation.org. There is also the opportunity to donate securely online through that web page, and please know that any and all donations are very much-needed and appreciated!
- "Prader-Willi Syndrome On The MoveSM: "On The Move" (OTM) Event Planning Season has begun! While it seems as if the 2012 May Awareness Month is a long time off, really it is just around the corner! We have several fun new things happening with the OTM campaign for 2012. General OTM planning packets and event-specific packets are available now on the OTM dedicated webpage, www.pwsausa.org/onthemove , so we hope you will check your calendars and choose an event and a date now! Watch this blog, your e-bulletin, the PWSA (USA) website, and our Facebook page for more information, coming very soon! We are very excited to see all of the fantastic accomplishments in raising awareness and in fundraising for this year's On The MoveSM campaign….will YOU be On The MoveSM?
- "Spare Your Change! for PWSA (USA) Research": Those of you who attended the conference in November will recall that you had the opportunity to place your spare change in collection jars specifically labeled with the phrase above. You were invited to take some of those same labels home and continue consolidating all that loose change, in support of the efforts of PWSA (USA) to advance PWS research. We hope your "change efforts" are adding up! Additional labels can be obtained by calling our office, 1-800-926-4797.
- Grassroots Fundraising: We also want to let you know that awareness and fundraising efforts are welcome year-round! These can be as simple as a neighborhood car wash or as elaborate as your imagination, energy, and volunteer help can make them! Funds raised through these efforts can be designated for support services, for research efforts, or some combination of the two. We are happy to provide you with an information Fundraising Packet which will give you event ideas and help you through all the planning stages – call our office!
We are excited for all of the amazing things our PWS community will accomplish in 2012 – it is going to be a FANTASTIC year!

Remembering Daddy
Marilynn Brass
We usually don't do posts that are this personal, but we decided to do one this year.
This has always been a tough weekend for us. Our father, Harry Brass, died 38 years ago on September 10. This was the weekend we had to take him to the hospital for the last time. He died eating chocolate ice cream and watching the Red Sox win. His battle with colon cancer was not as bad as we had feared. He died at the New England Medical Center where he had been Director of Pharmacy for 23 years. He died at 70, too young, but he left us a great moral legacy.
Sheila and I both left our jobs in 1975 to spend time with him when he became ill, and we had a great two years. We started a communications business and an antiques business. Because his father, our grandfather, who had been an artist in Russia, was into salvage (read, ran his own junk shop) in Chelsea, Massachusetts, Daddy worked in the trade as a young boy. He was involved in our antiques business, and we think it really made the last two years of his life enjoyable. Sheila and I were feeding ourselves on $5.00 a week, and we discovered the joys of macaroni salad and omelets made with cold cut and cheese ends, 50 cents a pound at Johnnie's Foodmaster. We never told Daddy about our circumstances because we didn't want to worry him.
Among the memories we treasure are those of our father rubbing citronella on our bed posts on hot summer nights in Winthrop, were we grew up. He always shined everyone's shoes and lined them up in the kitchen for school the next day.
When I was job-hunting with a new Master's Degree in English, I called Daddy , sobbing, from a telephone booth. I had shown up for an interview, and the man who was supposed to interview me refused to see me because I was a woman. Daddy found his number, called him, Harry Truman-like, and gave that fellow a piece of his mind. I got the interview. Although I didn't get the job, the experience reinforced my father's opinion that women were entitled to job equality, and Daddy knew that there was no one like his daughters.
Daddy's job history was fascinating. His first job was at the age of six when he packed ice cream cones in a factory for six cents a day. He shared his wages with his younger brother, Barney, and his mother. He was hired at the age of 13 as a bellboy at the Boston City Club where he was asked to press General Pershing's trousers when the General made an appearance in Boston.
Daddy was acknowledged as one of the top three graduates of the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy. He lost his eyesight briefly when working his way through college. He supported his mother until the day he died one year before she did.
A hospital pharmacist for more than 50 years, he helped make Quinidine injectable to treat heart disease during World War II. He transferred his pharmacy skills to our home kitchen were he made ice cream from a mix called "10 Below," during the 1940s, and the best fudge on earth (we still have the pan he used.)
We remember the episode of the moss green cake that looked a bit strange, but tasted great. We were experimenting with food coloring.
There were the Sunday breakfasts with fried lox, buckwheat pancakes or waffles made on the waffle maker that had been a wedding gift. In later years, he made a comforting beef stew from my recipe. It was so good that we re-named it Daddy and Marilynn's Beef Stew.
Sometimes, I think I see my father walking in front of me on the street after all these years, and it saddens me just for moment when it turns out to be someone else. Recent losses are painful and can be devastating, but I'm learning that time can take the rough edges off grief, and we go on.
Our new cookbook, Baking With The Brass Sisters is dedicated to our father, Harry Brass, and to our Honorary Father, Daniel "Dad" Carey.

A business plan is considered to be a meaningful activity with a specific purpose attached to it. The plan tries to communicate some ideas along with the vision to accomplish a particular goal and it requires to be customized keeping the target audience in mind.
Here is the list of the most committed mistakes while developing a business plan.
Common mistakes you should avoid in a business plan
Unbelievable financial estimation: This is one of the most significant sections of a business plan where the readers will concentrate on the profit and loss analysis or the predicted revenue statement. Although the numbers are anticipated in the forecast, it focuses on those statistics which can be incorporated without the outstanding severity. This information only needs to be justifiable, reliable and convincing.
Not having enough of feasible opening: A successful business plan must not forget to include the details of an opening, the right way to make use of that opening and the effectiveness of the company to deliver the exact need of the situation. You need to make the whole process as simple as possible as some of the readers judge the entire plan only by reading the financial part and the executive summary. So it becomes extremely important to structure these two sections in a manner where the reader understands everything without much of a fuss.
Lack of apparent transmission to market: There are many profound investors who mainly focus on the product part thereby paying all their attention on the ideas so as to keep out of many necessary elements where they could have retrieve some profits. The physically isolated customers are located with the help of the ever increasing reputation of the internet making other added ideas commercially feasible.
Expect too much income: You should remember one important aspect of the process which has got to work with the worth and volume of the opportunity. It suggests that the usual analysis of the estimation of sales will probably feel optimistic but not to a great extent. Each of the statistics must have proper justification or else they might seem to be a mere fantasy and they would end up losing all the reliability and confidence, a prospective investor may not have included this in the plan.
Lack of support of the significance of a quality cash flow management: The business personnel needs to realize one of the most serious intricacies of any business form which is the differentiation between profits and cash as well as agreeing to the fact that bankruptcy can be a major threat to a business. Hence the requirement of a highly developed cash flow management is very essential in terms of the investment opportunities where the cash flows coming in advance and necessary cash flow out.
Doubtful objectives: It is very important to state the essential functionalities which include a brief on the investment openings in the market. The business plan should explain the whole process in detail along with the main objective. It is necessary to understand that investment is an area of expertise for an investor and accordingly there would be some appropriate restore for their investment.
Lack of confirmation of real demand: This is another major mistake in terms of planning where it is essential to validate the intensity of demand or the sales estimation for a particular product or service. The use of subjective review and the proper use of specifics form the two main elements of forecasting. Sales review would emerge with income statistics looking at which a potential investor would decide on investing at the very beginning where the risk percentage is quite high.
Unpredictability of the Business plan: As all the different business constituents are fetched into one single being, the business plan needs to be reliable enough to match with these prolonged levels. There are possible chances of discrepancies to arise.
Playing down the challenge: The competitors may be influenced by your product or service in the market. Thus, it is very important to identify the approaching threat which can be in the form of a competitor.
Stepping up the output: The business plan should be free from any kind of errors like grammatical and spelling mistakes. It should be developed in a simple language, clear and direct such that the interest of the reader stays on. At times when approaching the end of the plan, few of the sections are rushed in which may lead to a lot of mistakes. So proper focus should be put in while creating this part of the business plan

I bought this cardigan with the express purpose of cutting off the bottom to give it a cropped length. I used knit hem tape which made it very easy and left a professional looking hem, which is not easy with knits. It's a warm cashmere and I love the big shawl collar. Here I like how the crop of the cardigan lines up with the horizontal stripes on the tee. Styled here with Elizabeth Suzann cecilia pants with duck boots for rain.
January 23, 2018
Another Amour Vert tee today, this one is super boxy so I layered it over skinny jeans but leaned into the boxy with another boxy cardigan. Thought I'd try my feet at open flats today since it is infinitely warmer out now that it was this time last week. I didn't freeze but I definitely put socks and slippers on when I got home from work.
January 24, 2018
An old standby at this point, sweater tucked into wide leg jeans with camel boots. Can't go wrong. I hate that the bed is unmade in this photo but if you cherish cats like I do, the last thing you'd ever do is rouse them from their sleep spot unnecessarily. If you are looking for beautifully styled professionally shot outfit of the day photos, look elsewhere.
Wednesday night
January 24, 2018
I'm throwing in this bonus loungey look. When I got home from work today I immediately took off my bra and put on sweatpants. I never tie the drawstring on these pants and they fit so loose, gently resting on my hips. They used to belong to my mom and now I wear them basically all the time around the house. I don't worry about how they look because I love them and they are comfortable and warm.
You saw this look in my last post, where I threw myself a pity party and tore it to shreds. I recognize I'm being overly critical when I find the faults. In this particular shot I think this outfit looks just fine — skinny jeans and sneakers, mockneck tee and a boxy cardigan. Gray monotone — great! In another photo of me in this outfit though, I feel like I look dumpy as hell. I'm trying to figure out if it's the cardigan that is kind of dumpy or whether the styling is suspect. Or, none of the above and take a chill pill?
January 26, 2018
So ready for the weekend. Capping the workweek with a return of the camel cardigan. I like how loose and swingy it is but it has regularly cut shoulders (as opposed to drop shoulders) so I feel it doesn't err into dumpy territory (this might be the problem I'm running into with the sweater from Tuesday and Thursday?) but rather stays structured but flowy. I'm wearing a top that belonged to my mom, one I took the sides in on a few months ago. It's just a super basic sleeveless tank but I really like how inky black the fabric is.
January 27, 2018
Had some fun errands today — vintage furniture browsing, then brunch with a couple friends, but also taking recycling and going to the hardware store. This outfit stood up to it all. I like the burgundy tee paired with the cropped black cardigan (can you tell this is a silhouette I like?) and it all was effortless with the wide leg jeans. You can basically tuck anything into these jeans and it looks flawless. Shoutout to Caron Callahan!
No Sunday photo this week. Saturday night I went to a slumber party for a friend's 32nd birthday and it was like we were 12 again — blanket fort (like, legit, adult size, hooks screwed into the ceiling, string lights, amazing blanket fort), all the junk food, piñata, and of course going to sleep at 4am. Sunday I stumbled through in a daze of bagels and cheeto dust. The afternoon was shot. So worth it, but like, I wore basically what I slept in but with pants. It's not a look anyone needs to see.
I hope this coming week is more productive than yesterday was! I need to get back into the studio, and also power through a bunch of office job stuff. I'm hitting a point where I'm in outfit repeat land, which I don't mind, but if I keep repeating I'm worried I won't have anything to say about what I'm wearing here each week? Will I sound like a broken record? How do you write a personal style blog if you don't have anything new to say? Do I even have anything new to say about a sweater and jeans I wear all the time?
For my own sake, it's actually a blessing to have particular garment combos I rely on, but I look forward to the changing of the seasons —hopefully the weather will help me cycle along into new outfit territory soon. It's not that I'm sick of my clothes, because I'm not. It's just I worry I'm going to appear boring on this blog in particular when I'm like, yep, here it is again. I should take my own advice and stop worrying — never got anyone anything but wrinkles.

From restoring a burning river to researching algal blooms in Lake Erie, many of Ohio State's scientists have been at the forefront of water quality efforts across the state. But future achievements might be in trouble.
Part of President Donald Trump's proposed Environmental Protection Agency budget cuts include a 97 percent reduction in great lakes funding, which in the past has received significant bipartisan support. Decreasing funds from $300 million to a mere $10 million places the Ohio Sea Grant program's work at stake.
The Ohio Sea Grant — a research program administered by Ohio State and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration run through OSU's Stone Lab, located on Gibraltar Island in Lake Erie — focuses on restoring the lake and its coast back to their natural habitats as well as educating the public on a variety of environmental issues.
"When the Great Lakes funding gets cut, our ability to efficiently and rapidly make changes is more difficult," said Christopher Winslow, director of both the Ohio Sea Grant Program and Stone Laboratory.
One of those changes is reducing the frequency and intensity of harmful algal blooms — overgrown algae colonies fueled by excess nutrients from manure and fertilizer runoff used on surrounding farms.
In 2014, record levels of microcystin, a poisonous toxin created by Lake Erie's blue-green algae, forced officials to shut down the city of Toledo's water supply, leaving nearly half a million people without clean water for two days.
Cutting funding for the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative would mean less funds for all five Great Lakes regions, according to a copy of the budget plan obtained by The National Association of Clean Air Agencies.
A cut this large would affect more than just the lakes, though.
Steel towns across the Great Lakes region would see some of the greatest impacts, Winslow said. Before the EPA, industries polluted waterways by dumping waste into them, he said.
Before the EPA, industries polluted waterways by dumping waste into them, Winslow said. Most communities, he added, aren't creating the problems caused by that waste themselves, yet they still suffer from the effects of industrial pollution in the lake.
But because of the remediation efforts by programs such as the Ohio Sea Grant, which helps inform scientific policy through its research, much of that pollution has been regulated to safer levels.
"If you've been to Cleveland lately, people have been coming back because of ecosystem improvement," said Winslow. "Without the GLRI, it's hard to achieve that."
Although Stone Lab doesn't apply for GLRI funds directly, the institution often works with researchers who do.
Tory Gabriel, extension specialist and program manager for Ohio Sea Grant, helps educate outdoor recreators on how to prevent the spread of invasive species and works toward improving wetland habitats. Gabriel said without the GLRI funding, issues like harmful algal blooms, invasive species and loss of wildlife in Lake Erie will continue to be problems for not only the environment but also the economy.
"Clean water means good fishing, good beaches and nice boating that boosts the economy," Gabriel said. "They go hand in hand."
In terms of its economic impact, tourism in and around Lake Erie generates more than $1.8 billion in yearly sales with an estimated 9 million people who visit the region for boating, fishing and other outdoor recreation opportunities.
During the 2011 harmful algal bloom, the Lake Erie region suffered a $20 million decrease in tourism revenue because toxic algae, which can cause liver damage, prevented tourists from entering the lake.
Winslow said that as budget cuts begin to affect research labs and universities across the nation, Stone Lab and the Ohio Sea Grant will have to adapt and locate new funding sources.
"This isn't going to shut down the island at Stone Lab," he said. "But (it) makes the things we need to do for the health of the lake and the economy associated with the lake harder."

It is a clear unaged Armagnac distilled from white wine grapes, a white spirit full of fruit and freshness. Never compromised by barrels, she is the true essence of Armagnac. After distillation is vatted in inert containers allowing the spirit to retain its sharp, spunky edge. Clean with a bold, muscular character, it is the preferred for mixologists as it is a versatile base for cocktails. Its flavor, viscosity and silky texture, makes it great for many different serves.
Coming from the same "terroir" of traditional Armagnac, she benefits from 700 hundred years of "savoir-faire", but it wasn't until ROXANE launched in 2016 that the world was introduced to ultra-premium mixing Armagnac.
She is ready to party. She feels at home in cocktail shakers, as well as chilled in a martini glass or "on the Rox."
The nose lends aromatherapy of orange blossoms and luscious pamplemousse grapefruit.
The body of ROXANE coats the palate like honey on a spoon. Articulate and delicate flavors of lemon, Nutella and fresh green apples are nothing short of inspiring!
Ripe fresh peach is all around ROXANE, balanced by ever present lemon essential oils providing a long-lasting, pleasant acidity.
The finish is long, dry and effortlessly elegant.
If you're bored with premium vodkas, make this your new party drink !

text: The Olney Tigers made the trip to Kankakee for week one of the IHSA State Playoffs in Class 4A. Standing in their way, Kankakee Bishop McNamara. Kankakee Bishop McNamara entered the playoffs with hopes of a state championship and the chance to give longtime head coach Rich Zinanni his 350th career victory. The Fightin' Irish would host the Tigers in Week 10, the first of the playoffs. Olney started the game with the football. A quick pass out to the right to first year wide out Reid Doll from Dakotah Brown went for a completion. That was when inside linebacker Nick Mahnke, five-foot-ten 205 pound senior, crashed into Doll like a wrecking ball jarring the ball loose. "It was from the first snap," junior captain Kaleb Foster said about the difference between the Fightin' Irish players in comparison to the other teams played this year. "This isn't the LIC. It was a light hit and it felt like a semi truck." The ensuing drive by Bishop McNamara was an excellent stand by the Olney Tiger defense. One of the state's best rushers, with over 1600 yards on the year, Tyshon King attempted to get turned loose. Olney held him to a pair of runs for a total of six yards. Then a pair of stops on pass attempts by Tyler Hiller by the Tigers forced the Fightin' Irish to turn the ball over on downs. Unfortunately, Olney could not capitalize. Brown dropped back and tried to hook up with one of his gifted receivers, but Damien Thornton stepped in the way and picked off the pass. The interception was only the the eighth of the season for the senior. This time Bishop McNamara would punish the Tigers for their second turnover of the game. King powered off the left side behind their big offensive line and scamper 25-yards for a score. The next possession for the Tigers was again a nightmare. The third play from scrimmage was ripped out of the hands of the Tigers by the Fightin' Irish. This possessioin, it was the vertical attack by the home team that did the trick. Tyler Hiller faked a handoff to King, and receiver Payton Gerberding slipped past the Tigers for a 26-yard pass-and-catch. The Tigers offense looked like it would respond from the 14-0 score just 9:46 to play in the first quarter. Quinn Miller and Sutton Dunn each hauled in pass attempts adn Olney moved the chains. Misfortune would strike again though as a backwards pass attempt hit the grass for a fumble and Bishop McNamara pounced on the bouncing ball. The Fightin' Irish would then use runs of 16 then 13-yards by King to find the end zone and take a 21-0 lead with 8:01 to play in the first quarter. "Three turnovers right in a row," Olney head coach Matt Music said of the let down following the defensive stand that led to three scores. "We haven't done that. You can't do that with good teams." The Tigers were blitzed early with the 21-0 advantage behind the three fumbles and interception. "We can cover all that up in the conference we play in," Music said about the difference between the regular season and the playoffs when playing a team like Bishop McNamara. "In the 4A playoffs when you are 6-3 playing 8-1, that stuff can't happen." Olney would respond following the early struggles. Brown would lead a passing attack down the field, mixing in a few solid running plays. Reid Doll would respond from the early fumble with a big 20-yard catch over the middle for a first down to start the drive. First down plays from Brown, passing to Dunn and a run would get Olney in Bishop McNamara territory. A big third-and-14 would be set-up and the Tigers looked to senior captain Peyton Blanton. The pass bounced off the helmet of a defender and Blanton made a spectacular catch of 27-yards and a first down. Following a holding penalty, Olney's Brown would roll to his right and toss a pass in the right corner of the end zone to sophomore Quinn Miller. Miller would make a tremendous catch, through interferance from the defender for an Olney touchdown. The Tigers would cut the lead to 21-7 with 3:09 to play in the first. "It is physical. This is a physical contest," Music said of the way the 4A playoff games are played. The Fightin' Irish needed a bounce back drive. Olney would force the hand of Tyler Hiller. Kaleb Foster sacked the senior signal caller on second down. Third-and-14 was a deep pass down the left seam and Gerberding made a stellar catch over the defense for a 65-yard score. "Bishop McNamara is a good team," Music said of the Fightin' Irish. "They are going to play a lot of weeks." The Tigers were able to make a defensive stand. Florian Flaig would kick a 36-yard field goal to give Olney 10 points on the day Bishop McNamara added another Tyshon King touchdown to go ahead 42-10 heading into the half. King would start the second half with a 70-yard touchdown run as Bishop McNamara would pull away in the game. "When you go up north and the population is more, you get the guys that are blessed more with God's ability," Sutton Dunn, a senior Tiger, said. "Tyson has the ability to be running full bore and in a second put on the breaks. He is a great running back." Owen Jackson would add another score and the mercy clock was put on with the Fightin' Irish ahead 56-10. A fourth quarter field goal by Claudia Dolliger capped off the home team scoring with 8:46 to play in the game. The Tigers had one more good drive left in them during the season. Kaleb Foster would take over under center. The junior would get help from running backs Gavin Dorn and Peyton Blanton as the drive gained steam. A 24-yard pass from Foster to Dunn put Olney deep in opposing territory. Foster would scamper for 18-yards inside the 10 yard line. Senior Peyton Blanton ended the scoring on the day with a six-yard ramble for a touchdown. The Tigers score would be followed by a fake field goal pass from Dakotah Brown to Kaleb Foster for a two point conversion, ending Olney's total at 18. Kankakee Bishop McNamara would pick up the win, 59-18, to improve to 9-1 on the season and a second round date with Murphysboro. Olney, with the loss, falls to 6-4 on the season. The winning record is the fourth under head coach Matt Music (41-37 record). LEFT THEIR MARK The Olney Tigers will say goodbye to a group of seniors that helped the program take a step in the right direction, and return the orange and black to the playoffs. "Us in a nutshell, we have 11 seniors. Eight of them played all four years," Olney head coach Matt Music said. "It takes people playing every year. These guys did a lot of good things." The seniors helped the team make strides in the right direction by buying into what is best for the program. "These guys have are multi-sport athletes and have bought in to One Tiger Nation," said Music. "Here is the next step, the weight room. Point blank." Captain Sutton Dunn, as a junior, noted what the Tigers needed to do to improve. Dunn helped start the change and knows that the next group of Tigers can continue where this group left off. "This year we focused on that we are not tough, we don't hit. We proved that wrong this year. We flew around this year. We need to hand that to them," Dunn said. "They need to hit the weight room again. To hand the torch, we need to hand them toughness." TAKING THE NEXT STEP The next group of senior leaders will return a group of experienced and talented juniors. "I am really excited about the guys coming back," Music said of the returning Tigers. "Kaleb is a great leader. Skyler Sutton was a great leader this year. We have great athletes on the outside with Jace (Greenwood) and Quinn (Miller). Guys like Gage Stevens, like Jadyn Fleming, like Braedon Burgener, Bryce Conner, Austin Nuttall. It's your turn." Kaleb Foster will return as a 2018 team captain who will look to carry on the legacy this senior class leaves behind. "I am going to take a lot of philosophy," said Foster. "The way Sutton would run his routes. The way Peyton would run at you and make them square up against him and take a hard hit that normally they wouldn't have. Getting in Dakotah's head of how he would read situations in practice. Just taking a lot of things they taught, whether they meant to or not." Echoing the process, junior linebacker Blake Mitchell is ready to get started on the next season. "We have got to work hard over the offseason," Mitchell said. "We have to bust it hard in the weight room. Every rep counts." Fellow linebacker Levi Seitzinger led the Tigers in tackles as a junior and is ready to take the next step. "Being the leading tackler, I want to do that again," Seitzinger said about what he wants to do next season. "I want to set an example for the younger kids." Heading into next year, this trio, as well as others, will be looking to keep the Tigers moving the right way. "I am going to be expecting a lot," Foster said. "I'm going to expect that if you sign on to our family, I am going to treat you like family." Seitzinger will build off the performance this year, and try to be an example of play on the field. "This year being a big person on the defense, it felt really great," said the junior. "I went out there and gave it my heart." Mitchell, who played on the last playoff team captained by his older brother Dalton, wants to give the next group something to remember like he had. "My brother's senior year we went to the playoffs and played Mt. Zion. I liked every moment of that season. I got to dress as a freshman and play a little in that game," Mitchell said. "I want to do the same for these freshmen next year." The 2019 Tigers have already been challenged by head coach Matt Music. "That is my challenge to them. That is my challenge to my staff, to me, to our community," Music said of the Tigers trying to be contenders for a conference title and making a run into the playoffs. "We have to take the next step. We took a big step this year and we need to take another step next year."

Gummy Responds To Rumors That Her New Song Is About Breaking Up With Jo Jung Suk
After Gummy dropped her pre-release track called "The Quintessential Man" (literal title) on May 22, people have been wondering if her lyrics referred to a potential breakup with Jo Jung Suk.
The lyrics of "The Quintessential Man" take a jab at men who act pretentiously, thinking that women would be impressed by them. Furthermore, the Korean word for "quintessential" is "jung suk," which is the name of her current boyfriend Jo Jung Suk, thus leading to rumors that Gummy has ended her relationship with him.
In response to these rumors, Gummy's representatives stated, "The lyrics of Gummy's new song don't have anything to do with Jo Jung Suk. The two are still in a good relationship. We hope there will be no more misunderstandings."
It was then revealed that the track originally had a different title but eventually ended up with "The Quintessential Man" because the phrase had been mentioned in the rap lyrics.
"The Quintessential Man" comically expresses the difference between what men think and what women think represents the quintessential man.

After Hurricane Harvey, Fred Roberts Middle School in Pasadena ISD was one of the first schools that we heard from in need of help. Many of the students' families lost their homes, cars and most of their possessions — including their instruments. Music teacher, Mrs. Debbie McKelvey, was determined to keep her students playing. She knew that music was the key to healing from the loss and a way to cope with the "new normal" after the storm. Her students have been busy writing thank you notes to Music Doing Good with Instruments. Their words are truly music to our ears.
Music Doing Good with Instruments in so touched by these words of thanks. Roberts Middle School has already treated us to a concert by their wonderful orchestra!

Interview: Dhruva Krishna/
It seems like Dhruva Krishna is everywhere. The man literally lives, breathes, eats and sleeps around his music schedule. We say down with Dhruva early on a Tuesday morning to talk shop about his involvement in the Pittsburgh music scene.
FS: How'd you get started playing music?
Dhruva Krishna: I started playing music when i was really young. I started classical piano when I was six which was a classic case of Asian parents wanting their kid to play classical music. I hated for a long time but I started getting into in when I started playing ragtime - Joplin and 1920's entertainer music. I started liking music then but I really started getting into it when I started playing drums. That was my first love and really my only love in life. That was in 4th grade. From there I picked up guitar around 8th grade. Having the guitar, drums, piano combo is really useful because you hit all of the bases of playing in a band. I can noodle on bass and I recently picked up the banjo. I keep going from there. All the people I look up to musically were multi-instrumentalists so I figured I should as well. That has also given me a lot f opportunities to play in different bands because I can finagle my way into anything I want.
FS: What projects do you have going on right now?
DK: There's about 3. There's Eastend Mile which is definitely my biggest commitment and I play drums for that. I joined Eastend earlier this year in January. That's the most serious project I have going. I have The Family Band which is my personal thing. That came out of my commitment to Eastend Mile because I wasn't playing guitar as much. Eastend is very rigid and strategic as a band. We practice twice a week, we're very nitty gritty about getting everything right. The Family Band is the opposite. We're based on the premise that it's just about having fun. Not that Eastend isn't, but The Family Band is all about playing fun songs. It's mostly covers with some of my original stuff thrown in there. The main people behind that are me and Shane McLaughlin who also plays in Bergman. It's very Allman Brothers, southern rock style. The idea is also that we change members every time we play. Shane is almost the only consistent member with me. For the show coming up we have three guys who will be the backing band. That changes the game because even though we might play the same set each show, the different band members can really change the feel of the tracks.
My third commitment right now is Manic Soul which is my project with Shane. That's a very old school blues shred trio like Jimi Hendrix and Jeff Beck. All about that live crazy sloppy blues music. That came about recently, but we've played a few shows already. That's mostly Shane's baby and I play drums. Then next semester I'm starting a solo alum. It's been a while so I wanted to get back and explore some country and bluegrass stuff.
FS: How do you have time for all these projects on top of school?
DK: I think time management is interesting. When you find what you love, I think you just find time to make it happen. At least nowadays all of my activities have something to do with music. AB Music gets me on the other side of the equation since i'm booking and organizing music. In terms of playing shows, you have a schedule and you just work your way towards that goal. Usually I book shows and then schedule rehearsals around that. Eastend practices regularly though, so we're always ready. Family Band is the opposite and Manic Soul is in the early stages of figuring out how we want to work. Also my basement is soundproof so practices are easy when I just have to walk 5 minutes downstairs to practice.
FS: What about drums makes you like them best?
DK: It's not that I don't love guitar. But when you talk about yourself as a musician, at east for me, I say "I am a drummer." I don't qualify myself as a multi-instrumentalist. I'm just a drummer. I also think I come off as a drummer. I'm pretty ridiculous and goony. I'm all over the place and that's what being a drummer is sort of about for me. The guys I look up to like Keith Moon and those crazy old drummers who are bombastic people who just played their hearts out until they died at like 35. They did what they had to do until they couldn't. I love drums because they're the most peaceful thing ever. When I'm playing drums I'm trying to find order in chaos. It's bringing rhythm to something that didn't have it originally. Drums unify the band and it's something that brings pure structure to the song. It links everyone together. If you don't have a good drummer the music falls apart. Having the responsibility of creating that structure is something that I really love.
FS: Was there a pivotal moment that made you decide to do music?
DK: The first one was when my sister gave me Revolver. I was listening to Fall Out Boy and thinking it was amazing so my sister told me I was a fool and gave me Revolver. That blew my mind because the album was so old but so modern sounding and amazing. That was one of the first things that got me invested in music. I grew up a bit because it had me playing music that wasn't simple. Also I used to watch Palladia and those channels that had classic rock music videos like crazy. I binge watched that stuff. It was such a contrast to high school band which was very ordered and regular. Then I'd watch these videos of crazy dudes go insane and burn their guitars. Keith Moon drunk as shit throwing stuff and I realized that's what I want to do. During the years when I was 10-16 that was incredible pivotal. I also love Dr. Dog and Pet Sounds but the biggest things were watching my heroes play and also getting Revolver.
FS: Have you played any shows in the past that stand out?
DK: The Thrival Kickoff show was awesome. That was just a great time. We had a lot of energy. I was solidly drunk but just having a fun time, but that's what it's all about. It wasn't the most technical performance but we were having a great time and the audience could see that, which made it awesome. Recently we opened for a band called The Aristocrats. It was weird opening for them because I used to watch their videos to learn my instruments. They were some my early heroes. I got to hang out with them and talk with them but not like an interview, just sort of like musician to musician. That was a big boy moment when I realized how real my music was getting. They absolutely loved us which was weird because I was revering them like gods and they didn't know how to take it. This last weekend Memphis Hill had a release party which was awesome because the community of my friends that play music were all together and we all jam together and love each other. I've played so many shows with those guys and its was awesome get the squad together. The guys from Beauty Slap came and watched, so it was a great time.

Occasionally I'll be home by myself and get so busy with work I lose track of time. I'll turn around to leave my desk and nearly step on my dog that was quietly standing behind me. I'll look at the clock to see what time it is and it's always within 5 minutes of her normal dinner time.

A few posts back, Keri pointed out that Ocean Front Walk is becoming overly crowded with advertising. I came across one of those "is this guy serious" links today on YouTube that shows one of these advertising "greats", Steven Barber trying to pimp some Venice wall space for advertising. Is this what our wonderful city is up against? Yikes.
Advertising on the Boardwalk Part 2
I don't mind ads in Venice, they are common in most urban areas. But I don't like ads everywhere.
Just because there is an empty wall, doesn't mean we should blast some sell message.
Overall it will look bad, if there are ads everywhere, but the impact will also be smaller.
If it were such effective ad space, shouldn't he place his ad there? I mean, geez, people. Think.
He is far from one of the advertising greats, lol.. He's over the hill, and old school..
who gives a damn about ads poppin up everywhere, people talk the talk , but when we call and offer 10k a month to lease ad space the answer is always yes, and when the city counsel members get "campaign donations" from us they never seem to complain.. Its all about $$.. there are far more pressing issues in the city besides our ads and other companies ad's.

I found this lesson on Artsonia last year but didn't get around to actually doing until this school year! I love how colorful it is. The students seemed to enjoy making it and the rest of the school enjoys looking at it as well.

Our guide to the top things to do in Amsterdam with kids including sightseeing, museums, parks and all that makes Amsterdam a great destination for a city break with kids in tow.
Amsterdam is a very family friendly city. Compact, leafy and very safe, it offers a plethora of sightseeing opportunities for all ages as well as museums and attractions specifically for young visitors. I am exceptionally fond of Amsterdam: I have visited the city many times and this year I was lucky enough to have one of my best friends moving there – the ultimate excuse to go an explore like a local!
I saw Amsterdam with the eyes of a student, those of a professional and lately with the eyes of a mum of young children. It is for them that I compiled this list of the best things to do in Amsterdam with kids.
Top things to do in Amsterdam with kids
When compiling a list such as this one, I try and include both activities the kids love and more standard sightseeing opportunities, even if not 'for families' as such.
Here are my top picks for things to do in Amsterdam with kids of all ages.
Please note: this post contains affiliate links and if you make a purchase through them, we might make a small commission at no extra cost to you.
Nemo Science Museum and its terrace
Amsterdam science museum tops our list as one attraction specifically for kids but easy to enjoy for adults too. Located in a stunning building close to Amsterdam Central Station, the museum is an interactive space where kids can learn about science through exhibitions, workshops and hands on science experiments.
The museum develops over several floors and covers from mechanics to human learning and perceptions with activities suitable from toddlers to teenagers and adults.
Our kids adored the installation teaching about the water cleaning cycle and an interactive game in which you protect the Earth from danger from space, while us adults were seriously impressed with the amount of information about mechanics and learning patterns.
For all of us, one of the most pleasant elements of the museum was its terrace. At the very top of the building, the terrace is on the roof of the museum and it is a safe place for kids to play and learn. Here you have some solar installation panels teaching about energy, fountains you can splash in (!) and a cafe.
Nemo is vast so I recommend you take your time to visit properly. The only downside to the museum is that is quite expensive: as a family of 4 we spent over 60 euro and while I can say it was well worth it, I also believe it is a pretty steep price!
If you are on a budget, I recommend checking out the Iamsterdam card: depending on the age of your kids and your plan for the day, it can save you a fortune.
Good to know: Children under 4 go free and access to the terrace is free (just get the lift from the entrance hall, before the ticket stall).
Take a canal cruise
It may be a touristy thing to do but a boat tour of Amsterdam canals is a fantastic family activity and one of my must-do things to do in Amsterdam with kids in tow.
Several companies offer cruises of different lengths and many are family friendly: some simply welcome kids while others go the extra mile tantalizing small taste buds with pizza!
We took a lovely cruise in December and I recommend it as a family activity for all seasons. In winter, just make sure you pick a boat with a glass roof – not all have them and winter in Amsterdam on the canals gets pretty chilly!
Our favourite cruises are those offering family friendly food such as the pizza canal cruise or burger canal cruise.
When you look for things to do in Amsterdam with kids, it's hard to beat one that involves a boat and pizza!
Tropen Museum
The Tropenmuseum is often mentioned as one of the best museums for kids in the world and indeed, it has special attention for young visitors.
The museum is an interactive space aimed at teaching kids about different cultures around the world.
The museum has a special children route to allow them to experience as much of the space as possible and encourage them to interact as much as possible with what surrounds them to they can have a truly immersive experience.
Artis Royal Zoo and Micropia
Amsterdam zoo is the oldest zoo in the Netherlands and its complex now comprises of two attractions: the zoo itself and Micropia.
The zoo caters for kids with specialized workshops, zookeepers talks (in Dutch, but you can ask questions in English) and organised feeding times.
It also has a playground and an initiative we have not experienced but would love to: summer nights at the zoo! In June, July and August the zoo extend its Saturday opening hours to sunset and hosts special workshops for children and musical performances: you can bring your own picnic or order a pizza from their outdoor kitchen!
Artis zoo gets pretty busy on a sunny day so we recommend getting skip the line tickets if going at prime visiting time
Visit a House boat for people…. or cats!
Amsterdam's canal are the most interesting feature of the city for kids who will no doubt notice the many colourful boats floating on their waters. What children may not realise is that while some boats are for transport, some are for living.
To experience life on a houseboat you have several options. You can stay in one, visit the houseboat museum or take a different approach altogether: visit a house boat converted into a cat refuge!
The perfect combination of culture and cuddles for feline lovers and one of the best things to do in Amsterdam with children who love animals.
Openbare Biblioteke and mouse mansion
A wonderful space for kids and adults is Amsterdam's central library. Located in the city centre, not far from the Central Station and a stone throw from Nemo, the library has a great kids section with books, colourful couches and a play area for smaller children. One of its areas does have books in English.
The library is a great Amsterdam attraction for kids but is wonderful for adults too.
Something not to be missed in Amsterdam's central library is the Mouse House. This is a 2 metre tall dolls house for mice (!) with rooms, hallways, factories and shops.
It is truly impressive and so popular it now has a sister exhibit in a different location too: the mouse mansion shop and studio where, we are told, you can also chat with its creators.
Van Gogh museum
The van Gogh museum tops the travel lists of many Amsterdam visitors and can easily be enjoyed as a family too and not just because of Van Gogh's colorful and (mostly) child friendly art.
The museum has special attentions for kids. They have family tours, family guides, a children treasure hunt and a something special: Vincent's travelling case, packed with fun activities for kids and adults.
Make sure you stop at the entrance desk for all family information and materials.
You can buy fast track entry tickets to the museum here
The Maritime Museum
Another museum to please both kids and adults is the Maritime museum. The museum teaches about the history of Ducth maritime endeavours and impressive empire and has something sure to pique the kids attention: a full size replica of an East India company sailing ship!
The ship is part of the museum and welcomes kids with discounted price for kids 4 to 11 (kids under 3 go free). You can see the ship from the Nemo terrace: it is really impressive so if you want to make them excited about it and build anticipation, pointing at it the day before will sure do the trick.
You can buy skip the line tickets to the museum in advance here
Vondelpark and Kinderkook cafe
Amsterdam has many beautiful parks and a family favourite is Vondelpark.
The park is large and a pleasure to visit with kids: you can stroll or cycle and several playgrounds make it a favourite for local families and visitors alike.
Inside Vondelpark there is also a unique place, the Kinderkook cafe. This cafe has a unique concept in the sense that it is built with the intention of getting the kids involved so much so that they prepare their own food! Kids can make pizza, sandwiches, decorate cupcakes and serve the food. The concept is fun and has great success with young kids but it is worth noticing that being 'run by kids' the place is not exactly spotless!
If you don't feel like getting your kids to cook, you can also enjoy food in many other areas in the part including hot dog stands and the gorgeous cafe and terrace on the edge of the park (towards the museums)
Eat pancakes
My kids had heard about the famous Dutch pancakes before we left home and so we obliged. Our two favourite places for them are the Hoxton (child friendly, despite the cool look and atmosphere) and Pluk. The latter is not child friendly as such and has stairs that may prove hard for strollers but it is so cute and the pancakes so delicious we cannot stay away.
You can read a selection of our favourite family friendly restaurants and eateries in Amsterdam here
Amsterdam Noord
Another activity not quite for kids as such but pleasant to do as a family is a trip to Amsterdam Noord. This area of Amsterdam is just in front of the Central Station, on the opposite side from the Canal Ring, and has an interesting history. Originally an industrial and working class area, Amsterdam Noord is not a hip and up and coming area with many beer gardens, artsy corner and a lot of green spaces. The extra plus for the kids is that you reach it by boat!
A free shuttle boat connects it with Centraal in a matter of minutes and you can spend a whole day wandering around this flat neighborhood. Here you have the Amsterdam lookout and famous swing (for daredevils and suitable for older kids only), the beautiful Eye Film Museum and a plethora of waterfront eateries with a hip yet family friendly vibe.
Stadium tour
Soccer lovers may be excited by the idea of visiting the stadium of legendary Ajax.
The stadium can be visited on most days and welcome kids: special kids tours are available in Dutch only but they include playtime on the pitch. A perfect and fun opportunity for cultural immersion through play!
Amsterdam marionette theatre
I am closing this list with an old fashioned attraction that I believe will charm kids and adults alike: the old marionette theatre. The theatre holds regular performances with wooden characters perform opera and music pieces by various composers under the skillful movements of 6 puppeteers.
Some of the performances are specific for kids. Performances are usually in Dutch but because of the nature of the show can be enjoyed also by non Dutch speakers, which I believe makes for a fantastic cultural experience for children and adults alike.
Additional resources for families travelling to Amsterdam with children:
- Where to stay in Amsterdam with kids: best area and hotels for families
- Best time to visit Amsterdam (season by season)
- Family packing list for a trip to Amsterdam in winter
- One day Amsterdam itinerary for the time poor
I hope you enjoyed this selection of the best things to do in Amsterdam with kids. Safe family travels!

32 bit drivers
In 32 bit operating systems, you use 32 bit drivers instead of ROM BIOS. This means that software suppliers like Microsoft and IBM must be able to supply drivers to all conceivable hardware. The advantage is, that once the operating system has installed drivers, all user programs operate alike relative to hardware.
It is an enormous project to supply drivers. Especially OS/2 has suffered problems in getting the right drivers on the market. For many years, IBM for example did not supply OS/2 drivers for Canon printers. That was part of my reason to drop that operating system. Regarding driver installations, Windows 98 is unquestionably the best operating system.
Windows supports plug and play. The operating system searches the PC for hardware. Often all drivers (to CD-ROM, network controller, sound card, etc.) are installed automatically. The drivers can be seen under System in the control panel.
Let us look at a EIDE hard disk. The hard disk operation is regulated by an EIDE controller on the system board. Therefore, Windows must have a driver installed to this controller. We can find it easily. Go to: My computer -> Control panel -> System -> Computer. In Windows 2000 you should click on Device manager:
Then expand the entries to hardware units:
Actually, you can see a long list of drivers in the picture above. Windows has installed most of them during Windows installation. An VIA Bus Master IDE controller, which regulates the hard disk can be found:
I always have these drivers on the hard disk (in the folder C:\Disks\Drivers). That makes it easy to install them after an unforeseen but necessary re-installation of Windows .
The quality of the drivers is very important. The drivers are extremely important for video cards. You often hear that a new driver has been developed for this video card and it improves performance by 40%. Then rush to download it (from the manufacturers Internet server) and install it.Don't forget to save it on disk for future use!
You also have to be cognizant about the system board chip set. Often Windows 98 installs a good standard driver, but new chipsets may contain facilities which require a new driver. That can be found on a disk, which comes with the system board or on the Internet.
Installation of new drivers
Don't let Windows search for hardware. Instead choose yourself. Then you have to select the particular hardware from the list and in the next screen click "Have diskette... " Learn this technique if you experiment with your PC and want maximal benefits from your hardware.

"Living in the moment" as the academic year draws to a close
Let's face it. There is no more intense time at
Juxtaposition of multiple obligations, from social systems not much linked to one another makes time a particularly precious resource. Consider the demands, obligations, and opportunities…
· Completing term papers and capstones; possibly four our five of them
· Studying for and completing final examinations
· Attending the "end of year" events of every organization to which one belongs, each of them wanting to celebrate and commemorate
· Breaking or loosening intense ties with friends/lovers
· Packing up and organizing a move – what to do with all that "stuff" one has accumulated
· Reconnecting with an redefining one's relationship with parents (try to remember that this can be a stressful, exhausting time for them too)
· The uncertainties of transitioning to a new way of life
· Looking even more seriously at the intense ties of the past year or years
· Seeking the appropriate ways to celebrate the last moments of undergraduate life and resisting (or not) the temptation to celebrate too much.
· And much more….
Zen Buddhist masters are particularly skilled at "living in the moment" – totally immersing themselves in the experience of each moment, completing it and then moving on to the next moment. Each moment is a lifetime, unconnected to the one that preceded it.
This practice is difficult, but may offer a useful model as the end of the academic year looms upon all of us.

ISIS ventures into fish selling, car dealership to balance battlefield losses
New Delhi, Apr 29: The Islamic State (ISIS) militants have started selling fish and car dealership to balance its financial crisis emerged after territorial defeats, media reported.
The militant group faced financial hardship after it lost its oil income after being hit hard by US-led coalition forces in Iraq.
Income from these non-traditional business is being used by the ISIS to pay their fighters and finance their activities as they are pushed out of the territory they once held.
According to reports, they are earning millions of dollars a month running car dealerships and fish farms in Iraq.
The group's annual income was around $2.9bn (£1.98bn) when they declared their caliphate in 2014.
Amid financial hardship, the ISIS decided to reduce the salaries of all its militants by 50 percent earlier this year.
Before being hit by airstrikes, the ISIS generated huge wealth from oil smuggling which is used to fund its operations, paying fighters a monthly salary and providing assistance to their families.

Hundreds of dollars were destroyed in the airstrikes carried out by US-led coalition forces
"The terrorists' current financing mechanism has changed from what it was before the announcement of the caliphate nearly two years ago," a report by Iraq's central court of investigation said, quoting Judge Jabbar Abid al-Huchaimi.

Free show at Stubb's Austin restaurant with live music from local bands Belcurve, Sharks in the Deep End, Wednesday Night 1/2/2019
Stubb's BBQ
801 Red River
Austin, TX 78701
Free Austin indie rock show Wednesday January 2 at Stubb's BBQ in the Red River Cultural District
Belcurve plays Stubb's Barbecue Wednesday night. Come out and say "hi" and enjoy some of Austin's best Barbecue and local live music. Here's what people are saying about Belcurve:
"Punchy guitars, steadfast bass lines, and intricate drum patterns merge to create peppy indie rock redolent of PJ Harvey and Jenny Lewis. Much like Harvey and Lewis, Castro's voice is delicate and pointed at once, occupying that sweet space between antidote and venom that can be so difficult to perfect. But, of course, Castro nails it. Belcurve offers some of the best indie rock in Austin."
"Sweet melodic rock led by the ever-beguiling vocals of Sarah Castro."
-Laurie Gallardo, KUTX 98.9 FM
"Even with the blistering instrumentation and crushable melody, what stands out most is Castro's ability to express raw vulnerability in her near muttered delivery of "I've never been so scared of this thing called love." Belcurve has been good for a while, but in that moment they make it clear they're now firmly in the territory of great."
-Nick Hanover,Ovrld
7 Reasons Why You Should See Belcurve Wednesday night at Stubb's BBQ:

|A classic American design: the slide carousel.
Photo by Vicky McCargar.
THIS OBJECT, BOYS AND GIRLS, IS A SLIDE CAROUSEL. Just being able to identify it dates us as well into middle age. It is full of slides -- rich, colorful, jewel-like little windows of light. About the Doheny Campus!
Our director of public relations, Debbie Ream, handed this off to the archives last week with a skeptical look, as if to say, "Do you really need any more old slides?" But we Lone Arrangers are loath to say no to pictures, so we "accessioned" them, in the jargon.
Boy, oh, boy -- what a timely find. The original Eastman Kodak Co. box is intact. The slides represent a big range of dates between the 1920s and 1980s, but all appear to be historic shots pertaining to Doheny -- faculty like Sisters Pancratius Cremins and Aline Marie Gerber; students in fashionable 1970s twinsets, and best of all, lots of photos of the Doheny Mansion and grounds in the olden days, including the Doheny family's ornate old greenhouse (torn down around 1960 or so). There are about 75 slides in all.
Our colleagues a couple of hills over at the Skirball Cultural Center have kindly offered the services of their slide scanner and a volunteer to operate it. We'll post some of the images here and over on our Facebook site, http://www.facebook.com/MSMCarchives. (And if you're there, please give us a Like!)

VATICAN CITY (CNS) — Pope Francis is expected to issue a decree declaring one of his favorite Jesuits, Blessed Peter Faber, a saint.
The decree is likely to take the form of what the Vatican terms an "equivalent canonization," in which the pope inserts the name of the new saint in the universal calendar of saints without verifying a miracle performed through his intercession and without holding a formal canonization ceremony.
Jesuit Father Marc Lindeijer, vice postulator or promoter of Jesuit sainthood causes, told Catholic News Service Nov. 27 that "more or less right after his election" in March, Pope Francis asked that the process be started for the canonization of Blessed Faber, who with St. Ignatius of Loyola and St. Francis Xavier, was a founding member of the Society of Jesus.
While according to church law Pope Francis could have signed a decree immediately, Father Lindeijer said the pope asked that the cause "be studied and evaluated on its merits."
The "equivalent canonizations" — used most recently for St. Angela of Foligno and St. Hildegard of Bingen — recognize the candidates' widespread fame of holiness and veneration by Catholic faithful sustained over centuries.
Cardinal members of the Congregation for Saints' Causes are scheduled to meet in mid-December to vote on whether or not to recommend the pope declares him a saint by decree.
Father Lindeijer said a panel of historians and a group of theologians convoked by the congregation already voted unanimously in favor of the canonization, and he said he would be surprised if the cardinals did not follow suit.
For modern Jesuits, he said, the canonization would be another step forward in recognizing that the Society of Jesus was founded by a group of companions and not only by St. Ignatius.
"Many feel there has been too much focus on one man, one founder, as if Ignatius embodied the whole charism" of the Jesuits, Father Lindeijer said.
Faber, who was born in 1506 in what is now France, shared lodgings with Ignatius and Francis Xavier at the College of St. Barbara at the University of Paris. Faber actually was the first of the Jesuits to be ordained a priest and he celebrated the Mass in 1534 during which St. Ignatius and the others took their vows of poverty, chastity and obedience.
Jesuit Father Antonio Spadaro, editor of La Civilta Cattolica, who conducted the interview with Pope Francis published in Jesuit periodicals in September, had asked Pope Francis about his favorite Jesuits.
Pope Francis began "by mentioning Ignatius Loyola and Francis Xavier, but then focuses on a figure that other Jesuits certainly know, but who is of course not as well known to the general public: Peter Faber (1506-46)," Father Spadaro wrote.
Asked what he admired about Faber, the pope replied, his "dialogue with all, even the most remote and even with his opponents; his simple piety, a certain naivet, perhaps, his being available straightaway, his careful interior discernment, the fact that he was a man capable of great and strong decisions but also capable of being so gentle and loving."
