Adapt 305
Projector type:
45 lumens, max image 100" The Adapt 305 includes 4Gb of on board memory, and micro SD/TF slots. It also includes a VGA connection to a laptop. It supports many photos, audio and video formats (including JPEG, GIF, MP3, WMA, AAC, MPEG 1,2,4, AVI, WMV9, FLV, and more). It includes stereo speakers (each is 0.5W). The size is 110 x 60 x 25mm, and it weighs 190 grams (300grams with the battery). The Adapt 305 is available now for 305GBP in the UK.

First of all, I can't get over how similar this looks to the Aaxatech P2! My only concern is that Aaxatech states their P2 is rated at 33 ANSI lumens, while Adapt just says plainly 45lumens, could that be peak lumens? Would be nice to see some pictures of the 305 in action. »

I think the commun mistakeSubmitted by Anonymous on Wed, 01/06/2010 - 13:36.
I think the common mistake made here is that just because the product looks the same on the outside doesnt mean its the same on the inside. If it was a re brand then it would be supplied by Aaxa to Adapt and Adapt would just re-label it but this is not the case. You only have to look at the superier specification of the Adapt 305 and all the award winning reviews its had to realise the 2 projectors are very different on the inside whcih is where it matters most. I suppose its similar to Aston Martin and Jaguar who have one model which shares the same exterior design but the Aston Martin is very different on the inside in terms of both performance, engine, and overall features and most would consider the Aston Martin a superior product. If you read all the reviews the Adapt 305 is the Aston Martin whereas the Aaxa is the Jaguar. So it basically comes down to features, performance and value for money and the Adapt 305 wins in all 3 areas. With the Adapt 305 you are future proofing yourself with brightness, the biggest onboard memory (1gb v 4gb equating to a difference of £60/$95/€67) of any projector saving you a fortune on additional micro SD cards. So if you're purchasing the product in Europe you'l find its almost the same price once you take into account the endless import duties, VAT and other courier handling charges. Price to import into EU including 14% import duties, 17.5% VAT (or higher in some EU countries) plus shipping and handling charges is $531 / £332 / €369 which is a very small saving when you consider the extra performance and future proofing of the Adapt 305. Also worth bearing in mind that Aaxa are based in the USA so EU customers must return the product to the US which means £32/€36 shipping and a 4 week delay before the product is returned. »

Netanyahu to Abbas: You Can't Have Peace With Both Israel and Hamas
Palestinian president willing to give up hundreds of million dollars in U.S. aid if necessary to forge a unity deal with Hamas, says top adviser.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned Monday that reconciliation between the Palestinian Authority and Hamas could spell the end of the peace process, after an aide to Mahmoud Abbas said that the Palestinian president would be willing to give up U.S. aid if needed to secure unity with the rival faction.
"You can't have peace with both Israel and Hamas," Netanyahu said. "Choose peace with Israel."
Abbas is making a heavy push for reconciliation with Hamas, and a senior adviser said Monday that he was prepared to give up hundreds of millions of dollars in U.S. aid if that was what it takes to forge a Palestinian unity deal.
"Of course we need the American money. But if they use it as a way of pressuring us, we are ready to relinquish that aid," said adviser Azzam Ahmed.
Israel, the U.S. and the EU consider Hamas a terror group because of its rocket attacks and suicide bombings aimed at Israeli civilians.
The U.S. administration, the largest single donor to the Palestinians, withheld funds when Hamas was a part of a short-lived Palestinian unity government. The Palestinian Authority is heavily reliant on foreign aid and forgoing the funds could easily spark its own crisis.
The Palestinian unity government, isolated internationally because of Hamas' refusal to recognize Israel's right to exist, collapsed during a five-day civil war in 2007 that ended with the Islamic militant group seizing power in the Gaza Strip.
Since then, the Palestinians have been divided between rival governments in the West Bank and Gaza, the two territories they hope to turn into an independent state.
With peace talks stalled since September, Abbas has begun an effort to win international recognition of Palestine, with or without an agreement with Israel. That effort is to culminate at the United Nations in September.
Palestinian officials acknowledge that they must solve their differences with Hamas before they can go to the United Nations. Abbas has made repeated overtures toward Hamas in recent weeks - including an offer to visit Gaza to lay the groundwork for national elections. Over the weekend, he met with local Hamas officials in the West Bank.
"The president is working hard in order to bring about a unified Palestinian territory before he goes to the UN," Ahmed said.
Hamas leaders say they want a full power-sharing deal before meeting with the Palestinian president - including a deal on how to divide security responsibilities.
"This visit should be for the sake of achieving progress on the ground and not only for photos and media coverage," said Mushir al Masri, a Hamas spokesman in Gaza. "The problem is not in forming the government; it's in reaching an agreement."
Hamas is demanding further gestures from Abbas before considering unity, such as a release of hundreds of Hamas prisoners locked up in the West Bank, re-opening closed Hamas charities and the removal of a ban on Hamas activities in the West Bank.
Palestinian analysts say Hamas has hardened its negotiating positions recently and is feeling empowered by the recent upheavals in the Arab world, particularly in Egypt, where its ally, the Muslim Brotherhood, is expected to play a key role in the new regime.
Ayman Hussein, a West Bank Hamas member who recently met Abbas in Ramallah, said Abbas appeared serious in his efforts to reach out to Hamas and was pessimistic about the peace process with Israel.
Hanna Amerah, a member of the PLO executive committee, said Abbas is waiting for an official response from Hamas about his initiative to go to Gaza and expects an answer within a few days.
He claimed Abbas has support for his move from the European Union, the UN and the Arab League. But giving up on the U.S. and Israel could come at a heavy price.
The Palestinians receive more than $470 million a year in direct financial assistance from the U.S. The U.S. hasn't said what it will do if Hamas returns to power in the West Bank, but it will likely cut off the funds unless Hamas agrees to renounce violence and recognize Israel. Hamas has given no indication it is prepared to do either.

The Old Post Office
The Old Post Office received the 2013 Marguerite Williams Award by The Georgia Trust for Excellence in Restoration. Built in 1911, the grand neoclassical post office building features vaulted ceilings, marble-edged floors, arched windows, and revolution front door. The post master's office holds one of two large safes that still carry the U.S. seal and louvered windows that allowed the postmaster to watch over the work room from the second floor.
Original fixtures can be viewed throughout the lobby, including a functional electrical panel and glass paper towel holders in the restrooms.
Now a thriving Internet techology company, the owner of The Old Post Office invites the public to explore and be inspired by the beautiful architecture and collection of memorabilia in Dublin's Old Post Office.

Grand Master
< Grand Master
this wiki
- "Secret, shall I tell you? Grand Master of Jedi Order am I. Won this job in a raffle I did, think you? 'How did you know, how did you know, Master Yoda?' Master Yoda knows these things. His job it is."
- ―Yoda to Tallisibeth Enwandung-Esterhazy
Grand Master was a title used in both the Old and New Jedi Orders to describe the recognized head of the Order. While separate from the title Master of the Order, which was used to describe the elected leader of the Jedi High Council, the positions were often filled by the same person.
The title of Grand Master had existed within the Jedi Order for much of its history, representing the elected head of the entire Order. Appointment of a Grand Master was reserved to the Jedi High Council, with a unanimous vote needed to install the Order's leader. Bestowed only upon the Order's greatest and wisest of all Masters, it was not unheard of for several Masters to hold the title, forming elite guilds before the Ruusan Reformation of the Galactic Republic.[1]
Held by several Masters throughout the Order's history, the earliest recorded Grand Master was Biel Ductavis, who was appointed in 10,966 BBY.[5] The Kel Dor Zym, who was the Grand Master throughout the Great Galactic War, was assassinated shortly after the fall of the Jedi Temple in 3653 BBY.[7] Sometime later, Satele Shan was elected as Grand Master, becoming the youngest known individual to ever receive the title.[8] Several millennia later, Master Fae Coven held the title, leading reforms within the Order as it moved away from its militant position it held throughout the Old and New Sith Wars. During the Republic's Golden Age, Coven authored the Jedi Temple guidebook, The Jedi Path: A Manual for Students of the Force, with the help of some of the leading Masters of the era. Master Coven served a long term, even meeting her eventual successor, Yoda.[1] Master Yoda was the last Grand Master of the Old Jedi Order, holding the title as early as 82 BBY.[13] Under Yoda, the Order was disbanded as the Dark Lords of the Sith returned to power in 19 BBY and ushered in a new era which saw the initiation of the Great Jedi Purge.[2]
Before his death, the exiled Master Yoda helped Luke Skywalker complete his training as a Jedi; Skywalker would eventually rebuild the Order and declare himself Grand Master during the Swarm War of 36 ABY.[3] Leading the Order he had built for many years, Skywalker was held responsible for the actions of the Jedi-turned-Sith Jacen Solo by the Galactic Alliance government. After trying the Grand Master, Chief of State Natasi Daala exiled Skywalker from the galactic capital of Coruscant and the Jedi Order in 43.5 ABY until he could prove what had caused Solo's turn to the dark side of the Force. In the meantime, Skywalker and Daala agreed to the appointment of Master Kenth Hamner as acting Grand Master, until Skywalker returned or the High Council elected another Master.[12][10]
When tensions between Daala's Galactic Alliance and the Jedi Order grew, the Jedi refused to continue appeasing her demands of the Order. The Masters wanted to launch a wing of StealthX starfighters to help Skywalker fight a new Sith threat, but Hamner feared that the Galactic Alliance would think the launch was against them and would open fire on the StealthXs. However, when the Council discovered that Hamner had taken unilateral actions in making an agreement with Alliance Admiral Nek Bwua'tu to stall the launch until Bwua'tu gave him permission, they removed him from his position as acting Grand Master and decided to launch the wing, forming a plan with Booster Terrik to keep the starfighters safe. Hamner attempted to stop the StealthX launch, and in the ensuing skirmish with Master Saba Sebatyne, he fell to his death. The Masters then unanimously voted for Sebatyne, who had led the vote of no confidence against Hamner, as the new acting Grand Master. She felt that the appointment was wrong, as she was deeply upset over her failure to prevent Hamner's death, but eventually accepted the position.[11]
Following a Jedi coup that removed Daala from power and placed the Jedi in charge of the government, Skywalker's sentence was revoked, allowing him to resume his position as Grand Master. He did not return to Coruscant immediately, however, instead staying on the planet Nam Chorios to defeat the dark side entity Abeloth, who was his primary concern for the moment.[9] Skywalker eventually returned to Coruscant and convinced the Jedi to leave the planet in order to lure the Sith out.[14]
Behind the scenes
The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia introduced the title 'Master of the Order', used to denote the leader of the Jedi High Council. The Jedi Path: A Manual for Students of the Force cleared up the confusion between titles of Grand Master and Master of the Order.

Canopy Camera Tools is an app designed to help you get the most out of your mobile photography, and much like Joby's Frame X Frame Frame X Frame – A Free Photography App For iOS With Stop-Motion, Anti-Shake & More Frame X Frame – A Free Photography App For iOS With Stop-Motion, Anti-Shake & More How do you promote a physical iPhone accessory when most people wouldn't think of buying much beyond a bluetooth headset and maybe a case? According to Joby, you release a free app that fully demonstrates... Read More it has been created with a specific attachment in mind – the Kapok Canopy Case, with tripod mount. You don't need a tripod to benefit from this one, as there are plenty of features you can use in your hand. You could always fashion something to hold your device steady (I find Blu-Tack works well without leaving a mess) if you fancy creating a time-lapse sequence.
Getting The Basics Right
The iPhone (or any iOS device) camera isn't the be-all and end-all of mobile photography. Whilst the iPhone is the most popular and oft-used "camera phone" solution; Apple's in-built app leaves you wanting a bit more control and a few extra features.
Without being overly complicated, Canopy places 6 main buttons on your viewfinder, which can be toggled on and off with a tap. These are persistent in both Camera and Video modes, which are selected at the bottom of the screen, along with quick access to existing photos and app settings.
The left hand side of the screen allows you to choose between front and rear facing cameras, toggle time-lapse mode and the camera timer which is perfect for group shots and also works with video. On the right hand side of the screen there are buttons for controlling flash behaviour, toggling exposure lock and white balance lock.
The lock buttons are especially useful, and add some genuinely useful functionality to your phone. For example, whilst taking a video by default the camera will adjust exposure as light changes. Should you want to maintain exposure throughout the video, exposure lock allows you to do this and your camera won't re-balance every time you move.
This also goes for white balance, and if you're really serious you could use a piece of white or grey card to take a perfect white balance reading and lock this for the duration of your video or photo session.
Advanced Features, Better Results
Of course Canopy also includes the aforementioned time-lapse mode, which automatically stitches your photos into a video. It works, though as the handy notification I received pointed out – phone calls will interrupt any sequences you're working on. The best way around this is to activate Airplane Mode from your device's Settings.
Time-lapse photography takes up a decent wedge of battery (I've yet to use an app which is "light" on power for this task) so make sure you've got enough battery to complete the sequence and find your way home afterwards. It works well, and doesn't fill your camera roll with hundreds of images – great news.
The Settings menu afoot the viewfinder is also full of goodies. Much like Frame X Frame there is a spirit level (for that perfectly straight horizon) which – unlike Frame X Frame – does work in landscape mode. There's also a grid that can be activated for aiding composition.
Saving the best till last, it is also possible to use touch gestures to control the camera and this can be customized in the Settings area. As you can see from the screenshot below, the default configuration is pretty intuitive.
Canopy Camera Tools is probably the best free camera app I have used on the iOS platform. Features like time-lapse, exposure and white balance lock along with well-implemented touch gestures make it a joy to use, and provide some excellent results. You really don't need a tripod, Kapok case or Gorillamobile to enjoy Canopy. Grab it now and start taking better pictures!
Have you found any similar great tools we've yet to feature? Do you like Canopy Camera Tools? Do you own a tripod/mount for your device? Let us know how you shoot on the go in the comments below.

Last night as I'm scrolling down my Twitter feed, I saw a bizarre news headline that read, "Florida Man Shot by Police After Eating Another Man's Face". I had to click on it to see if it was a spoof, but as I kept reading it, sadly, it was true. Witnesses say this naked man was chewing off the face of another man. They went to get the Miami police. The officer warned him to get off the man, but instead, this insane zombie kept chewing the flesh off from his face, looked up at the policeman and growled. That's when the police finally shot the man dead. Larry Vega was the first to witness this bloody attack while riding his bicycle into downtown Miami. He said, "The guy was, like, tearing him to pieces with his mouth, so I told him to get off. The guy just kept eating the other guy away, like, ripping his skin." He then said, "It was just a blob of blood, you couldn't really see, it was just blood all over the place."
Police assume it was drug-related and I'm sure they're doing some investigation. But has there been any incident such as this where the attacker has gone this insane, to bite off another person's face while on drugs? I remember once talking to this real 'out there' conspiracy theorist who said that terrorists have made this experimental drug where it turns people into zombie - which is why we're more likely to have a "zombie apocalypse". Even the CDC has warnings against a zombie apocalypse to my surprise. It sounds like a huge sci-fi movie, but this type of drug can literally burn the insides of your body and make you go after your fellow human being. While I think it's all 'psyche the public out hype' --- I also believe that anyone can make a drug that'll do anything these days. But my theory is: he was a cannibalistic psychopath -- drugs or no drugs. I'm sorry, but if you're that whacked out on drugs, the last thing you want to do is enjoy your high by noshing on the face of another man.

Which is exactly what the Trashcan's did for their month long acoustic tour in March 2011.
The October 2010 acoustic tour covered parts of the western/southwestern USA, so this recent tour covered much of the rest of the US, including a number of cities the band had never played and cities not played since the 2004/5 Weightlifting tours, including a long overdue return to Toronto, Canada. The full list of dates and setlists can be found here.
The official poster – only 100 hand-numbered prints were made – was designed by the mighty Shane Locke.

- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

High Protein Diets and Weight Loss
In my introductory post for this subject, High Protein Diets and Weight Loss, the high protein diet was discussed in a general way. This article will offer some suggestions for foods that are good sources for protein and a few of the more recommended high protein diets. But remember, before beginning any diet or weight loss and exercise program, arrange for a consultation with your doctor.
Choosing High Protein Foods
High protein foods help to keep you feeling full for a longer time and are important for building and maintaining muscle. They also help with weight loss.
Most high protein diets are generally low in the carbohydrates that contain essential vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and fiber. In addition, some protein foods are high in the unhealthy fats that can lead to heart disease, stroke, diabetes and cancer. Selection is important.
For instance, a 6 oz. porterhouse steak with 38 grams of protein also contains 41 fat grams and 540 calories. Steak from grass-fed beef is a better option as it will be lower in fat and calories than steak from grain-fed beef.An equal amount of wild-caught salmon with 36 protein grams has 18 fat grams and 348 calories. Seafood is among the better choices for protein sources. Some of the fish, such as salmon, contain important omega 3 oils.
Poultry such as skinless chicken and white meat turkey are low in fat and calories and are excellent sources of protein.
Dairy products such as yogurt, milk, and cottage cheese are good protein sources for calcium. If used in moderation, eggs are another good protein source -- but remember that they are high in fat and cholesterol.
Legumes and beans are good vegetarian sources for protein and are high in the fiber that make you feel satiated. Be aware that some varieties can be high in carbohydrates.Always choose meat, poultry, eggs, and dairy from animals that have been pasture-raised. Choose wild-caught fish. These choices are lower in fat and calories, higher in vitamins, and free of antibiotics and hormones.
Red meat includes beef, veal, lamb, and pork, and should be eaten lean and in moderation. Red meat increases inflammation and some types of cancer. Avoid processed meats altogether.
Best High Protein Diets for Weight Loss
Ranked by US News expert panel, here are the best high protein diets for weight loss and good health:The Weight Watchers Diet contains about 26% protein. You are allowed to eat what you wish as long as it is within the parameters of the daily PointsPlus target. The target number is based on gender, weight, height and age. Low-fat, protein rich meals are the recommended choices on this diet.
The Biggest Loser Diet is about 30% protein. The plan consists of fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. You will be eating three servings of protein per day.
The Atkins Diet is about 29% protein. It is one of the more popular low-carb plans and pushes the protein. A menu for the day might include salmon for breakfast, grilled chicken at lunch, ham for dinner, and roasted turkey slices as snacks along the way. -
The Eco-Atkins Diet is a spinoff of the original. It is about 30% protein and and around one-third of the protein comes from plant proteins with much of the attention given to beans. Options include high-protein veggies like Brussels sprouts.The South Beach Diet is lower in carbohydrates and higher in protein and healthy fats than the typical American diet. Its about 30% protein.
The Abs Diet plan includes protein at every meal and snack, which fills you up for longer than carbs, spurs lean muscle growth, and hastens fat burn. Its about 28% protein.
The Zone Diet is about 29% protein overall and requires that every meal and snack contain 40 percent carbs, 30 percent protein, and 30 percent healthy fat.

Grill up a tasty pork tenderloin glazed wtih maple syrup and herbs. MORE+ LESS-
To broil pork tenderloin, place on broiler pan; broil 4 to 6 inches from heat using times above as a guide, turning once and brushing with glaze during last 10 minutes of cooking time.
Grill flare-ups result from fat draining onto hot coals. Because pork tenderloin is lean, it grills quickly with few flair-ups.
Cook pork tenderloin to an internal temperature of 155°F. Pork dries out quickly; take care not to overcook it.
Grilled sweet potatoes go well with pork. Peel the potatoes and slice them about 1/2 inch thick. Drizzle them with olive oil, season as desired and grill on skewers or in a grill basket until slices are tender.

Children Praying in the Masjid
A child that is below the age of seven does not yet comprehend. This is why we were commanded to order our children to pray when they turn seven since before this age they do not possess the adequate level of comprehension. So the point at which he begins to comprehend things is the age of seven. After reaching this age, a child must be ordered to pray. This is based on the statement of Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu `alayhi wa sallam): "Order your children to pray at seven (years of age), and beat them to it (if they fail to comply) at ten. And separate them in their beds." These are Islamic etiquettes that we are required to follow, and included amongst them is: Commanding the children to pray at the age of seven.
Ordering them to pray doesn't mean that you just tell your child "Pray" and that's it. The understanding that we derive from this command of Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu `alayhi wa sallam) of ordering our children to pray is that we should teach them "how" to pray. And if this is not so, then the act of you telling your child who is playing by the door: "Go to the masjid and pray" when you have not taught him how to purify himself or how to perform the prayer, does not remove the responsibility from your shoulders.
You have only fulfilled your responsibility when you have taught him how to purify himself and then you tell him "Go pray." In this circumstance, you have complied.
Many people are inconsiderate when they bring to the masjid their children - aged seven or less - who are not in a state of purity and have no understanding of how to pray, and then place them in a row of prayer. This row is considered disconnected due to this child standing in it since he is not praying.
The following statement of the Prophet (sallAllaahu `alayhi wa sallam) applies to people who do this: "Whoever connects the row, then Allaah will connect him, and whoever cuts off the row, then Allaah cut him off."
You bring a child who does not comprehend the prayer to the masjid and put him to stand in the first row next to you behind the Imaam while the people remain silent out of courtesy. This child is not in prayer. Perhaps he may not even be in a state of purity, i.e. he may have impurities on his body! This is since you took him from the front of the house before teaching him how to purify himself and how to pray. This is incorrect.
So it is mandatory that you teach him at home how to purify himself and how to pray. Then you should teach him where to stand in the masjid. He should not stand in the front row. Rather, he should stand in the row where all the children are lined up. If a group of people congregate for prayer and they consist of two rows, then the children should stand in the second row, i.e. the last row, after the row of men. This is what the Messenger of Allaah (sallAllaahu `alayhi wa sallam) instructed us to do. So we must abide by these etiquettes.
Then when the child reaches ten years of age, and non-compliance and rebelliousness (against this order) arises in him, he should be hit for the purpose of disciplining and intimidating him until he prays and safeguards all of his prayers.
Children should be separated in their beds at this age also, i.e. each child must sleep by himself (in his own bed). This is the etiquette of Islaam.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pharaohs were rulers of ancient Egypt. Before the union of Upper and Lower Egypt, kings would wear crowns of different design, to show which part of Egypt they had rule over. The red crown was worn in Lower Egypt and the white crown in Upper Egypt. In later history, kings of the whole of ancient Egypt would wear a combination of the two crowns, called a Pschent. The word comes from the Egyptian word Per-aa, which means "Great House". Pharaohs were believed to be descended from the gods. When a Pharaoh died, all the treasure that they owned would be buried with them.
The Pharaohs are often closely linked to the Pyramids as they were burial tombs for the Pharaohs themselves. Another famous burial place for Pharaohs is the Valley of the Kings.

Wells Fargo and Company contributed $80,000 to GRID Alternatives, a nonprofit that installs solar electricity systems for low-income homeowners, to expand its Solar Affordable Housing Program and build a model that can be replicated nationwide.
The non-profit has installed over 200 solar electric systems for low-income homeowners that will generate $3.3 million in clean renewable power and reduce of greenhouse gas emissions by 10,000 tons a year.
"We're committed to supporting clean, renewable energy and have invested in large-scale wind and solar projects nationwide," said Barry Neal, director of Environmental Finance.
"Our contribution to GRID Alternatives supports the deployment of solar electric systems to low-income families who can benefit the most from related cost savings in their electricity bills."
GRID Alternatives trains and leads teams of community volunteers and job trainees to install solar electric systems for low-income homeowners.
The organization launched its Solar Affordable Housing Program in 2004 and currently operates in communities in Northern and Southern California in partnership with local governments and nonprofits like Habitat for Humanity.
"This investment from Wells Fargo is helping GRID Alternatives grow rapidly to bring solar power to more low-income communities," said Erica Mackie, Executive Director and Co-Founder of GRID Alternatives.
Wells Fargo integrates environmental responsibility into its business practices and operation. This year it launched a Solar Home Program to support the development of new solar homes in California. Learn more at wellsfargo.com/environment.

Jewish World Review August 19, 2009 / 29 Menachem-Av 5769 I am finally scared of a White House administration By Nat Hentoff
http://www.JewishWorldReview.com |
I was not intimidated during J. Edgar Hoover's FBI hunt for reporters like me who criticized him. I railed against the Bush-Cheney war on the Bill of Rights without blinking. But now I am finally scared of a White House administration. President Obama's desired health care reform intends that a federal board (similar to the British model) as in the Center for Health Outcomes Research and Evaluation in a current Democratic bill decides whether your quality of life, regardless of your political party, merits government-controlled funds to keep you alive. Watch for that life-decider in the final bill. It's already in the stimulus bill signed into law.

Anne of Cleves (German: Anna von Kleve; 22 September 1515 – 16 July 1557)[1] was Queen of England from 6 January to 9 July 1540 as the fourth wife of King Henry VIII.[1] The marriage was declared never consummated and, as a result, she was not crowned queen consort. Following the annulment of their marriage, Anne was given a generous settlement by the King, and thereafter referred to as the King's Beloved Sister.[2][3] She lived to see the coronation of Queen Mary I, outliving the rest of Henry's wives.[4]
Early life[edit]
Anne was born on 22 September 1515[1][5] in Düsseldorf,[6] the second daughter of John III of the House of La Marck, Duke of Jülich jure uxoris, Cleves, Berg jure uxoris, Count of Mark, also known as de la Marck and Ravensberg jure uxoris (often referred to as Duke of Cleves) who died in 1538, and his wife Maria, Duchess of Julich-Berg (1491–1543). She grew up living in Schloss Burg on the edge of Solingen.
Anne's father was influenced by Erasmus and followed a moderate path within the Reformation. He sided with the Schmalkaldic League and opposed Emperor Charles V. After John's death, Anne's brother William became Duke of Jülich-Cleves-Berg, bearing the promising epithet "The Rich". In 1526, her elder sister Sibylle was married to John Frederick, Elector of Saxony, head of the Protestant Confederation of Germany and considered the "Champion of the Reformation".
At the age of 11 (1527), Anne was betrothed to Francis, son and heir of the Duke of Lorraine while he was only 10.[7] Thus the betrothal was considered unofficial and was cancelled in 1535. Her brother William was a Lutheran but the family was unaligned religiously, with her mother, the Duchess Maria, described as a "strict Catholic".[8] The Duke's ongoing dispute over Gelderland with Emperor Charles V made them suitable allies for England's King Henry VIII in the wake of the Truce of Nice. The match with Anne was urged on the King by his chief minister, Thomas Cromwell.
Wedding preparations[edit]
The artist Hans Holbein the Younger was dispatched to Duren to paint portraits of Anne and her younger sister, Amalia, each of whom Henry was considering as his fourth wife. Henry required the artist to be as accurate as possible, not to flatter the sisters. The two versions of Holbein's portrait are in the Musée du Louvre in Paris and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. Another 1539 portrait, by the school of Barthel Bruyn the Elder, is in the collection of Trinity College, Cambridge.[9]
Negotiations with Cleves were in full swing by March 1539. Cromwell oversaw the talks and a marriage treaty was signed on 4 October of that year.

Henry valued education and cultural sophistication in women, but Anne lacked these. She had received no formal education but was skilled in needlework and liked playing card games. She could read and write, but only in German. [10] Nevertheless, Anne was considered gentle, virtuous and docile, qualities that recommended her as a suitable candidate for Henry.
Anne was described by the French ambassador, Charles de Marillac, as tall and slim, "of middling beauty and of very assured and resolute countenance".[11] She was fair haired and was said to have had a lovely face. In the words of the chronicler Edward Hall, "Her hair hanging down, which was fair, yellow and long ... she was apparelled after the English fashion, with a French hood, which so set forth her beauty and good visage, that every creature rejoiced to behold her".[12] She appeared rather solemn by English standards, and looked old for her age. Holbein painted her with high forehead, heavy-lidded eyes and a pointed chin.
Henry met her privately on New Year's Day 1540 at Rochester Abbey in Rochester on her journey from Dover. [13] Henry and some of his courtiers, following a courtly-love tradition, went disguised into the room where Anne was staying. [13] Eustace Chapuys reported:
"[The King] so went up into the chamber where the said Lady Anne was looking out of a window to see the bull-baiting which was going on in the courtyard, and suddenly he embraced and kissed her, and showed her a token which the king had sent her for New Year's gift, and she being abashed and not knowing who it was thanked him, and so he spoke with her. But she regarded him little, but always looked out the window…. and when the king saw that she took so little notice of his coming he went into another chamber and took off his cloak and came in again in a coat of purple velvet. And when the lords and knights saw his grace they did him reverence".[14]
According to the testimony of his companions, he was disappointed with Anne, feeling she was not as described. According to the chronicler Charles Wriothesley, Anne "regarded him little",[15] though it is unknown if she knew if this was the king or not.[16] Henry did then reveal his true identity to Anne, although he is said to have been put off the marriage from then on. Henry and Anne then met officially on 3 January on Blackheath outside the gates of Greenwich Park, where a grand reception was laid out.[17]
Most historians believe that he later used Anne's alleged 'bad' appearance and failure to inspire him to consummate the marriage as excuses, saying how he felt he had been misled, for everyone had praised Anne's attractions: "She is nothing so fair as she hath been reported", he complained.[18] Henry urged Cromwell to find a legal way to avoid the marriage but, by this point, doing so was impossible without endangering the vital alliance with the Germans. In his anger and frustration the King finally turned on Cromwell, to his subsequent regret. Cromwell's enemies, who had long waited for him to make his first false step, began to close in.
Despite Henry's very vocal misgivings, the two were married on 6 January 1540 at the royal Palace of Placentia in Greenwich, London by Archbishop Thomas Cranmer. The phrase "God send me well to keep" was engraved around Anne's wedding ring. Immediately after arriving in England, Anne conformed to the Anglican form of worship, which Henry expected.[19] The couple's first night as husband and wife was not a successful one. Henry confided to Cromwell that he had not consummated the marriage, saying, "I liked her before not well, but now I like her much worse." He described her as having unpleasant body odour and sagging breasts, among other complaints.[20]
In February 1540, speaking to the Countess of Rutland, Anne praised the King as a kind husband, saying: "When he comes to bed he kisseth me, and he taketh me by the hand, and biddeth me 'Good night, sweetheart'; and in the morning kisseth me and biddeth 'Farewell, darling.'" Lady Rutland responded: "Madam, there must be more than this, or it will be long ere we have a duke of York, which all this realm most desireth."[5]
Anne was commanded to leave the Court on 24 June, and on 6 July she was informed of her husband's decision to reconsider the marriage. Witness statements were taken from a number of courtiers and two physicians which register the king's disappointment at her appearance. Henry had also commented to Thomas Heneage and Anthony Denny that he could not believe she was a virgin.[21]
Shortly afterwards, Anne was asked for her consent to an annulment, to which she agreed. Cromwell, the moving force behind the marriage, was attainted for treason. The marriage was annulled on 9 July 1540, on the grounds of non-consummation and her pre-contract to Francis of Lorraine. Henry VIII's physician stated that after the wedding night, Henry said he was not impotent because he experienced "duas pollutiones nocturnas in somno" (two nocturnal pollutions while in sleep; i.e., two wet dreams).[22][23] On 28 July Henry married his fifth wife, Catherine Howard: on the same day Thomas Cromwell was executed, in theory for treason, but in practice as a scapegoat for the doomed German marriage.
After the annulment[edit]
The former queen received a generous settlement, including Richmond Palace, and Hever Castle, home of Henry's former in-laws, the Boleyns. Anne of Cleves House, in Lewes, Sussex, is just one of many properties she owned; she never lived there. Henry and Anne became good friends—she was an honorary member of the King's family and was referred to as "the King's Beloved Sister". She was invited to court often and, out of gratitude for her not contesting the annulment, Henry decreed that she would be given precedence over all women in England save his own wife and daughters.[2]
After Catherine Howard was beheaded, Anne and her brother, the Duke of Cleves, pressed the king to remarry Anne. Henry quickly refused to do so.[25] She seems to have disliked Catherine Parr, and reportedly reacted to the news of Henry's sixth marriage with the remark "Madam Parr is taking a great burden on herself."[26]
In March 1547, Edward VI's Privy Council asked her to move out of Bletchingley Palace, her usual residence, to Penshurst Place to make way for Thomas Cawarden, Master of Revels. They pointed out that Penshurst was nearer to Hever and the move had been Henry VIII's will.[27][28]
On 4 August 1553, Anne wrote to Mary I to congratulate her on her marriage to Philip of Spain.[29] On 28 September 1553, when Mary left St James's Palace for Whitehall, she was accompanied by her sister Elizabeth and Anne of Cleves.[30] Anne also took part in Mary I's coronation procession,[31][32] and may have been present at her coronation at Westminster Abbey.[33] These were her last public appearances. As the new Queen was a strict Catholic, Anne yet again changed religion, now becoming a Roman Catholic.[34][35]
After a brief return to prominence, she lost royal favour in 1554, following Wyatt's rebellion. According to Simon Renard, the imperial ambassador, Anne's close association with Elizabeth had convinced the Queen that "the Lady [Anne] of Cleves was of the plot and intrigued with the Duke of Cleves to obtain help for Elizabeth: matters in which the king of France was the prime mover".[36] There is no evidence that Anne was invited back to court after 1554.[37] She was compelled to live a quiet and obscure life on her estates.[37] After her arrival as the King's bride, Anne never left England. Despite occasional feelings of homesickness, Anne was generally content in England and was described by Holinshed as "a ladie of right commendable regards, courteous, gentle, a good housekeeper and verie bountifull to hir seruants."[4]
When Anne's health began to fail, Mary allowed her to live at Chelsea Old Manor, where Henry's last wife, Catherine Parr, had lived after her remarriage.[38] Here, in the middle of July 1557, Anne dictated her last will. In it, she mentions her brother, sister, and sister-in-law, as well as the future Queen Elizabeth, the Duchess of Suffolk, and the Countess of Arundel.[39] She left some money to her servants and asked Mary and Elizabeth to employ them in their households.[40] She was remembered by everyone who served her as a particularly generous and easy-going mistress.[4]
Anne died at Chelsea Old Manor on 16 July 1557, eight weeks before her forty-second birthday. The most likely cause of her death was cancer.[38] She was buried in Westminster Abbey, on 3 August,[41] in what has been described as a "somewhat hard to find tomb" on the opposite side of Edward the Confessor's shrine and slightly above eye level for a person of average height. She is the only wife of Henry VIII to be buried in the Abbey.
Anne's epitaph in Westminster Abbey, which is in English, reads simply:[42]
She also has the distinction of being the last of Henry VIII's wives to die,[4] as she outlived Henry's last wife, Catherine Parr, by 9 years. She was not the longest-lived, however, since Catherine of Aragon was 50 at the time of her death.[40]
Anne is the subject of three biographies: Julia Hamilton's Anne of Cleves (1972), and Mary Saaler's Anne of Cleves: Fourth Wife of Henry VIII (1995), and Elizabeth Norton's Anne of Cleves: Henry VIII's Discarded Bride (2009). Retha Warnicke has written an academic study on Anne's marriage called The Marrying of Anne of Cleves. Royal Protocol in Early Modern England (2000).
Anne of Cleves appears as a character in many historical novels about Henry's reign. In The Fifth Queen (1906) by Ford Madox Ford she is portrayed as a sensible, practical woman who happily settles for annulment in return for the material benefits. Anne of Cleves is the main character of My Lady of Cleves (1946) by Margaret Campbell Barnes. About a third of The Boleyn Inheritance (2006) by Philippa Gregory is recounted from Anne's point of view, covering the period of Henry VIII's marriages to her and to her successor Catherine Howard. The book concludes with Anne living away from court, and avoiding the execution ceremonies of Howard and of Jane Boleyn, sister-in-law to one of Henry's queens and lady-in-waiting to all the others, including Anne. Gregory includes Anne in a non-fictional review of the period at the end of the book.
Anne and her Holbein portrait in the Louvre are the focus of the novel Amenable Women (2009) by Mavis Cheek.[43] Anne and Catherine Howard are the subject of The Queen's Mistake by Diane Haeger (2009), while Anne and Jane Seymour are covered in Volume 3 of Dixie Atkins's tetralogy A Golden Sorrow (2010). D. Lawrence-Young authored a biographical novel "Anne of Cleves - Henry's Luckiest Wife" published by GMTA/Celestial Press. N.C. USA, 2013.
In film and television[edit]
- The role of Anne of Cleves was played by Elsa Lanchester in The Private Life of Henry VIII, which was released in 1933. Lanchester's husband Charles Laughton played Henry VIII and won an Academy Award for his portrayal. The film received a Best Picture nomination; the first for a picture made outside the U.S.
- Rick Wakeman recorded the piece "Anne of Cleves" for his 1973 album, The Six Wives of Henry VIII
- Anne of Cleves was played by Elvi Hale in the episode Anne of Cleves in the 1971 television series The Six Wives of Henry VIII. This series portrays Anne as a personally naive yet politically clever woman who convinces Henry against consummating the union so that he can get out of his alliance with the Germans should the need arise. When Anne's predictions prove true, it is she who suggests becoming "the King's beloved sister".
- Pia Girard played Anne of Cleves in the 2003 ITV series Henry VIII
- She appeared as a ghost in the Simpsons episode Father Knows Worst in 2009 to encourage Homer to let Bart learn from experience. [44]
- The role of Anne of Cleves was played by actress and singer Joss Stone in the Showtime cable television series The Tudors. The series downplays Anne's naiveté and exaggerates her popularity so as to provide a foil for the immature, unpopular Catherine Howard. The series also has an anachronistically svelte Henry engaging in an affair with Anne after his marriage to Catherine Howard, realizing too late that he "like[s] her after all."
- In 2014 and 2015, an episode of Horrible Histories and its reboot called "Ridiculous Romances" and "Horrid Henry VIII" featured Martha Howe-Douglas and Katherine Jakeways, portraying Anne of Cleves.

Archive for the 'GOP Candidate Ben Loyola' Category
The founder of the Hampton Roads Tea Party Monday endorsed GOP's Ben Loyola for congress in a move that could test the new activists' political horsepower.
Karen Miner Hurd said Loyola best represents the principles of conservatives that Tea Partiers like her represent.
The Tea Party officials either know something about Loyola's strength at the polls that we don't, or Ms. Hurd is putting her neck on the line which in effect will test Tea Party strength in Tidewater.
Win or lose, the results will be interpreted as being for or against the Tea Party.
Either way June 8's primary is going to get real interesting.
Loyola was born in Cuba. His family fled the repressive communist government of Fidel Castro when he was a baby.
Loyola loathes socialism and Obama's brand of Obummerism. A self-made successful entrepreneur, Loyola is a patriot whose voice cracks and eyes begin to tear up as he talks of his love for America and the U.S. Constitution.
A grad of the U.S. Navy Academy, he is a retired Navy pilot who unflinchingly supports the military.
His beliefs, background, and campaign pushes all of the Tea Party's hot button.
His closest opponent pollsters believe is car dealer Scott Rigell, anointed as the GOP's establishment candidate.
Rigell has taken heat from hardcore right-wingers for a $1,000 contribution to Obama, support for 22% sales tax hike and a system of an regional government that would have given taxing power to an unelected.
Nevertheless Rigell has corralled a number of top Republican endorsements, nationally, statewide, and locally.
Even Gov. Bob McDonnell has endorsed Rigell in the primary race. This reporter has covered VA politics since 1966 and is unable to recall a single time a sitting governor has gotten involved in local politics openly before a nominee has been selected.
Asked if those kind of endorsement deviations are indicative of problems with Rigell campaign, a top official said, "The top is a little shaky." Asked if he'd ever known of a previous incident of a sitting governor getting involved in a local campaign, he replied, "Never."
Loyola and Rigell are in a 6-way race for the June 8 primary. Other candidates are Scott Taylor, Bert Mizusawa, Ed Maulbeck, and Jessica Sandlin.
The winner of that contest will not only face Democrat 1st term incumbent Glenn Nye, but Kenny Golden, former chairman of the local GOP, who because he felt the party deck had been stacked against him, dropped out of the primary to run as an independent.
He's yearning for a Rigell victory because he thinks he'll easily overwhelm both him and Nye.
A recent push poll for Rigell only included Loyola and Mizusawa among the questions asked about Rigell.
There's no question Rigell has party's national support, more than adequate funding, and is the recipient of professional party grooming and training.
The rank and file Republicans cover the spectrum. Many support Rigell, but just as many are opting for Loyola and Taylor, rebelling against what they feel is unnatural national and state party interference.

…and remembers some of it's predecessors fondly…
The technical side:A new PowerSpine technology is supposed to give the Predator X an unprecedented increase in shooting power of seven percent in comparison to its predecessor. Ball velocity tests in the adidas laboratory demonstrated that the new PowerSpine enables the Predator X to reach a velocity of 110 kilometres per hour which, when compared to other boots, makes a speed difference of almost three metres per second. This could mean the Predator X shot is 26 centimetres behind the goalline while the other shot is saved by the goalkeeper!
Who else apart from Zidane is going to be seen wearing the tenth predator one of these days ?
Here are some names ….
Michael Ballack,David Beckham, Mark van Bommel,Diego,Steven Gerrard,Lucio, Robin van Persie,Raúl,Daniele de Rossi,Patrick Vieira ,Xavi and Alfred E Neuman.
So what are you waiting for ? Buy a pair and get your name on the list ..!

To add a comment, RSVP for the event!
hey luke & team, congrats! look forward to celebrating with y'all. sam and i will be there a little later in the evening.
Congratulations! I regret that I won't be able to attend -- need to take care of my daughter.
I'm very sad I'll be out of town for this celebration! I've been waiting for this. Of course, I still expect a t-shirt....
Congratulations, this is exciting!
I will definitely make it if I'm in town; not sure yet if I will be or not.
Update: I won't be in town. I'll come see the office some other time. Keep me on the list!
Out of town that weekend, leaving Fri afternoon. Congrats on the new office.
Congratulations DLabs! I have dinner plans but will try to swing by for a quick kegstand!
Will hoist a pint in your honor, but won't be able to make it in person. Cheers!
Alas, I'll be in Thailand with my bro, otherwise I'd totally be there! Instead, I'm going to send one thousand random strangers to take a sip of beer for me, at $0.05 a pop.
sounds like a blast but stuck in Ann Arbor at a conference. congrats on the move!
Sorry to miss. I'll be in NYC. Glad to hear things are going well. Please keep me posted.
Nuts, I'll be out of the country! Do a kegstand for me - I'll come crash the office another day for sure.
Definitely worth flying the 9 timezones to make it. You planning simultaneous events at your European & Asian offices?
Do you have to change it to "Wiese Labs"? (Not a bad name, IMHO!) Who's Dolores anyway? Seriously, though, I love that you're right near BART!
Congratulations! I wish I can celebrate with you guys....but my baby girl needs me

Why Don't We Have Fusion Power?
"Why Don't We Have" is a PopMech series that seeks to quickly explain just why some of the technologies promised by science fiction have yet to become fact. Today: fusion power.
Fusion energy, simply, is the exact opposite of fission energy, which comes from splitting an atom and is widely used to power nuclear plants and weapons. Fusion occurs constantly on our sun, which produces most of its energy via the nuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium. When nuclei fuse, they create a heavier nucleus and produce a little leftover energy in the process.
Fusion doesn't produce runaway chain reactions the way fission can, so there's no need to worry about meltdowns. Nor do fusion reactions produce the large amounts of dangerous radioactive waste that fission reactions do. That's why it's such a dreamy source of energy.
So why do we have fission power, but not fusion power? The answer is pretty simple, and very frustrating to a lot of physicists out there: For fusion to occur on Earth, you need a temperature of at least 100 million degrees Celsius—six times hotter than the core of the sun. The sun is a natural fusion reactor which makes up for its measly 15 million degrees with the intense pressure created by its core's gravity. Currently, here on Earth the amount of energy you'd need to put in to produce that kind of heat or pressure is much, much higher than what you get out in usable energy.
That's where the term cold fusion, the hope that fusion reactions can occur at relatively low temperatures, comes in. Once a promising theoretical goal, the field was largely written off as pseudoscience the late 1980s, when electrochemists Stanley Pons and Martin Fleischmann reported that their room-temperature electrolysis experiment had produced so much excess heat—as well as nuclear by-products like tritium—that only a nuclear reaction could be blamed. The attention led to a massive wave of cold-fusion experimenting, but no one was able to replicate their heat anomaly. A Department of Energy review panel debunked the evidence, and met again in 2004 to draw the same conclusion.
That doesn't mean scientists aren't still working on making (hot) fusion a viable energy source. In a New York Times op-ed in November, Stewart C. Prager of the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory called the process of creating viable energy from fusion "a grand scientific challenge."
Today, fusion reactions occur in tokamaks—doughnut-shaped chambers where gas is pumped into a vacuum chamber and electricity flows through the center (the doughnut's hole). The gas becomes charged, forming plasma that's then locked inside the vacuum chamber by magnetic fields (which are created by massive magnetic coils), mimicking the pressure of the sun's core. Radio and microwaves are fired into the plasma to raise its temperature, and at around 100 million degrees fusion can occur. The main barrier to a sustained reaction, other than the high cost of the electricity needed to heat the chamber, is finding a material that can withstand that much heat for more than a few seconds.
Prager points out that reaction outputs have come a long way in the past few decades—from milliwatts in the 1970s to 16 megawatts today, though the current record (at 65 percent output) was made in 1997. He believes that more time and support are all scientists need to make this "nearly ideal energy source" a reality. Then again, claims that net fusion power is just around the corner have been made for decades.
Still, Steve Cowley, director of the Culham Centre for Fusion Energy, tells PM that the main barrier is getting government funding. "It's expensive research that can only be done at large scales," he says, "and nobody sees the need right now. Every time there's talk about climate change, funding goes up for awhile." But not enough to get the first power plants built.
"For $20 billion in cash," he says, "I could build you a working reactor. It would be big, and maybe not very reliable, but 25 years ago we didn't even know if we'd be able to make fusion work. Now, the only question is whether we'll be able to make it affordable."

Dearest Insecurists,
welcome to my blog! I'm sorry this is going to be a short post, because I'm actually busy taking out my insecurities and flogging them through a 50,000 word power march you may have heard of... you see, I'm NANOING again this year... any of you doing this, too?
If yes, buddy me! (I'm Tessa C over there)
C U next month (if I survive NaNo, that is),

Hi Anne,
This is lovely and I think Katrina's clever use of the backing papers is really effective.
It's funny we have also had a sunny day here in Wales (seem so rare these days), and it even warmed up a bit. The sun was so strong when I awoke, I had to shade my eyes. Awesome.. spring is on its way!!
Regards Linda

After last week's incident in Georgetown, there was another case yesterday of a deer entering a store. This time a deer entered a Giant in Montgomery County, after it had entered several other stores. The sequence of events is somewhat muddled in the article, but apparently it entered the store by smashing through a window and then ran around inside. A police officer arrived on the scene and shot it in the head.
Incidents like this probably are to be expected when there are so many people and so many deer living in such close proximity to each other. Someone else might correct me on this, but I believe this is the breeding season for deer. So these animals are probably a bit more rambunctious because of the hormones at work. Whatever the cause, I hope that we do not have more of these incidents since they pose danger for everyone involved.

They're discriminated against, outlawed and even attacked and sometimes killed. But a national political leader has finally made a comment that seeks to draw a line on the discrimination.
Conflict & Justice Jamaica's Portia Simpson-Miller and Gay Rights PRI's The World October 02, 2012 Jamaica is an extremely difficult place for gays and lesbians. Human Rights Watch says the country has an "epidemic" of homophobic violence. But there's reason to suggest that things might be getting a little better there for gay Jamaicans.

Favorite 70's female singers! List your fav singers and why!
I love her voice,the haters say she sound like a goat But that what makes her cool. I like her supremes stuff better and tend to thing her solo stuff was overrated but she is a diva and i love her for it! Tell me something good one of the best songs thanks to stevie wonder but it was truly chaka that brought the funk to it. Luv her! My favorite singer of all-time and very underrated. Donna was a new singer different,cool,beautiful,edgy she made the 70's! | |
