The Keys of Enoch
Research on our Genetic Codes and DNA Divine Names
This is an excerpt retrieved and copied on the website of J.J. Hurtag about the Keys of Enoch and how we are genetically connected to the Divine.
"The Book of Knowledge: The Keys of Enoch® is a textbook that states the issues of the future in spiritual and scientific prose. The Keys examine the puzzles of life and give a spiritual explanation as to why we exist in this reality. In essence, it provides both the scenario of an ongoing past/present/future cosmology and a blueprint for a new direction in humankind's evolution into a higher state of consciousness.
The Keys of Enoch® teaches us that a greater unity can and must occur between the scientific and spiritual pathways in order for the problems of Earth to be solved. Its ultimate purpose is the advancement of humanity, with the goal of changing our orientation so that we are prepared for a higher spiritual attunement and a quantum shift that will move humanity and the earth forward into the next step in our evolution. In this process an ultimate interaction is foretold, as we discover "greater families of intelligence in the universe who share the same Higher Evolution and the same Divine Source".
The text is a multi-level process of instruction whereby the reader acquires the ability to work with mental pictures, sacred language, and consciousness expansion through which an actual transformation takes place, with the recognition that life is a process of experiencing multidimensional worlds. The text explains how we can discover God's Manifestation as it emanates Higher positive Thought-Forms and mathematical Rhythms of Light and Vibrations, and shows how all Higher Thought-Forms work with the vibrations of Light-waves in a harmonious coordination of collective — not independent —"pathways" that bring us to a deeper connection with the Living God.
The Book of Knowledge: The Keys of Enoch was the first book to point out the alignment between the Great Pyramid and the constellation of Orion. It was also the first book to show the direct relationship between DNA coding and the Divine Name. Additionally, The Keys describe the Divine Genetic Code within the human body that will prepare humankind for new vistas of life within the surrounding Higher Evolution, using aspects of the identical central genetic-light information for light transformation.
The Keys are, collectively, a CODE BOOK that explains how the Divine is extended and manifested through higher Thought-Forms that unfold throughout all realms of life. It should be pointed out that this text was not "channeled" but given to the author in direct face-to-face experience with two beings of Higher Superluminal Intelligence. Therefore, these Keys provide us with a great preparation, not only for the grand unification of the material realm, but for the ascension from the material and meta-material realms into the consciousness and spiritual realms of higher creation. Ultimately, the text seeks to help us with the complete transformation of our physical and mental skills and Quantum Mind experiences. In this, the mystery of what Christ referred to as "The House of Many Mansions" is no longer a mystery, but an active revelation of meaning in which we are active participants.
The Keys, thus, are a blueprint for the different levels of spiritual consciousness, and provides a "coding" for the understanding of these levels of reality through its intensive study. It challenges us to go beyond the ordinary three-dimensional thinking of our rational intellect, in order to accept it supra-rationally. More importantly, The Keys tell us that we are all experiential beings with free will. It is the acceptance and integration of our Higher Self with the spark of the Divine, in conjunction with the energy field which brings forth the knowledge of the true science of Life, that will enable each and all of us together to make the quantum leap"
"DNA and the Divine Names
Original Research on Our Genetic 'God Code'
By J.J. Hurtag
"According to the Keys of Enoch®
The Future of the Scientific and Popular Understanding of the Sacred
The connection between DNA and the Divine Name of God (YHVH or YHWH) goes back over thirty years in the work of The Book of Knowledge: The Keys of Enoch® and from medical researchers who have worked with this information. The Divine Names are generally recognized as the biblical and extra-biblical Names of God used in the writings of the prophetic thinkers down through the centuries who brought forth a higher path of service in what was regarded as a profane world.
In biblical and kabbalistic teaching, the fabric of the human body came out of the utterances of the Divine Word. The Book of Knowledge: The Keys of Enoch® (1973, 1975, 1977) makes the correlation that this Divine Name was the key behind the transcription code of chemical letters which develops the human body. In 1973 while at the University of California, Hurtak came to understand that there was a connection between the series of linguistic and genetic associations in the spelling of God's name in the biblical Hebrew (YHVH). He constructed a genetic resource table using the Divine Name Code in a triple arrangement of letters, including the "start" and "stop" coding of letters for each of the sequences with the amino and nucleic acids. This work was presented selectively before the Academy of Parapsychology and Medicine in June 1973 by Dr. J.J. Hurtak and published in his book The Book of Knowledge: The Keys of Enoch®, which has been translated into ten foreign languages since that time, as a matrix for the interrelationship between language and genetics in the use of the name YHVH.
Concerning the combination codes of DNA, which constructs the many complex amino acids, The Book of Knowledge: The Keys of Enoch®, Key 202, details the DNA code as a series of matrixes. The first and primal matrix square consists of permutations of the Tetragrammaton, the four letters in Hebrew which translate into Yahweh (Yod-Heh-Vav-Heh). This matrix is titled 'Word Spirit'. The 'Word Spirit' table is constructed from the three letters of the Divine Name which in various combinations create the 64 cells. Although the Divine Name is spelled with four letters, it uses only three from the alphabet (Y-H-V, with the H repeated), just as DNA or RNA contain four nucleotides as "letters" but read only three at a time to make the codon that codes for the amino acids of our body. The Divine Name is no more static than the DNA sequences, and can be rearranged for different functions (V-H-Y, H-Y-V, H-H-V, etc).
We are told in John 1.1 : "In the beginning was the WORD, and the WORD was with God, and the WORD was God", which cites a creative act with the WORD which comes from the Divine Yod-Heh-Vav-Heh as the God code within creation. After the first primal 'Word Spirit' table, the sequencing continues, ultimately to build the matrix table of DNA nucleotides which, in turn, code for the amino acids sequences, while the other faces of the square (cube) add additional mathematics and sound vibrational sequences.
It has taken several decades of research to come to grips with the vastness of the coding mechanisms of human DNA. Researchers with The Academy for Future Science in the early 1970s affirmed the reality of an actual "code" on the level of our genetic make-up that co-evolves life according to a higher evolutionary plan. This challenges the inherent indeterminacy of the physical world itself and shows higher levels of symmetry and balance, that is, a world not originally dominated by the so-called chaos theory.
Simply put, there exists a three-fold or trinity process that imprints the genetic instructions of the amino acid sequence that are governed by the interplay of the three letters of the Divine Name –YHV– which are used to create the twenty basic amino acids. Understand that the human genetic code, on the one hand, is the unique build-it 'table of instructions' for how the human genome works with the vast assortment of instructions in the evolution of the human body, that is validated through scientific research and discovery. Take another step and understand that in the mystical teachings of the sacred scriptures (the textus receptus in the West), the very life instruction manual for the human body in the form of ATP molecules is sustained by the Word of God as an alphabet of biophysical instruction for the life supporting ingredients of the bio-suit that clothes each person as a biocomputer.
The Book of Knowledge: The Keys of Enoch® purports that there is a pre-existent pattern of DNA above, reflected below in the organization of the life-giving material, establishing a homomorphism. The Divine Code of "letters" operates as firing mechanisms of coding and re-coding and shows the sensitive dependence of all human life on the initial conditions of vibratory language that exists on another plane of paraphysical reality.
In sum, the relationship between the language code of the Divine Name and the cellular parts of the human fabric can be seen in terms of the DNA-wave form of a certain vibrational frequency which composes the human biocomputer through the 64 cell areas of a complex matrix. The Divine Code is the coding mechanism communicated through micro-signal ranges, where the vibratory link forms the "genetic matter" within the cells as a pattern of Divine energy flow. The body is seen as a bio-suit of lightware operating via a language of biochemical light that provides for billions of instructions per second. The identity of each individual is housed in this inner labyrinth of chemical letters which equates the complete genome with the soul mechanism of life. We can only emerge from unconsciousness and understand the higher coding instructions by means of following the thread of life in the letters of the Names; a person who has lost this thread is lost in the maze of the body and mind. Such a person is impotent for he builds his tower to heaven with mental promiscuity, looking only at the building bricks and particles of his body and not at the source of the biotransducer. The secrets which constitute the "glue" which holds the building blocks together, lie forgotten or even dismissed in the arrogance of the intellect.
We at the Academy have used specific Divine Names of God that have been linguistically composed for higher states of creativity, particularly the leading name of the Divine Eternal Father (YHVH and its permutations).
More specifically, we have found the energy yielding reactions that comes from singing or broadcasting a Divine Name as a mantra, along with the energy of music, can increase the energy flow in some individuals and show via biofeedback how the health of an individual's body is dependent upon properly formed and concentrated enzymes, which in turn are dependent upon healthy DNA and RNA within the nuclei of our cells. Not only do musical resonances act as cues for our moods, but research shows that, by applying various frequencies to the body, not only is there the production of infection-fighting cells, but sound or specific frequencies may directly be used to destroy invading bacteria.
In addition to their sound vibrations, the Divine Names should be used with wisdom and understanding as to the depth and the focus of each Name and Letter, and for the praise of the Living God and His service, particularly since there is the temptation to use the Name for power or material gain. The Names of God are NOT to be used for financial or material gain. The Names of God should not be used or invoked for idle reasons, nor should they be used for purely individualistic application, nor should they be used exclusively as a means of attuning to the Divine. The Names are only a small component of the greater holism of Wisdom which must incorporate prayer, study, meditation, teaching and wisdom in a holy way of life. Over many centuries of tradition, the Divine Names were very carefully used by priests, rabbis, mystics and religious scholars to serve the needs of the human condition without taking personal acclaim or financial reward for doing the work of God for His glory.
Each Sacred Name illustrated a power or attribute of God. For example, ABBA (Father), YAHWEH (The God of Israel) and EL ELYON (The Most High God) have completely different name/natures, and yet they are the same God. I think the differences in the name/natures of God produce a major reason for the existence of different major religions such as Jewish or Christian. The different names/natures are also the reason for different denominations such as Hindu, Buddhist, Catholic, Baptist, Methodist, Orthodox Jewish, and even Muslim. Each group shapes its own religious belief system (ethos) based on its own singular concept of a single or multiple name(s)/nature of God. We think this is the primary reason that we as a human community don't get along very well, and we hope that will soon change for the better, with the greater use of the power and resonance behind the multiple Names of God. In short, the purpose behind the Divine Names is a love letter of instruction and empowerment, to do good works, embedded in the human fabric cell-by-cell, and to share in ecumenical fellowship for a positive future back into the Light wave."

Lindsay Lohan — who's probably in front of a judge as you read this — blames her dad for her current problems. After a lost passport delayed her return to Los Angeles from Cannes, France, for a mandatory probation-progress hearing, the actress told Us magazine that "I always said my father had someone [take] it."
OK, LiLo. Considering Michael Lohan has been vocal about wanting to get his estranged daughter into rehab, perhaps that's possible. But the judge's likely order for her to undergo mandatory random drug testing and wear an alcohol-monitoring ankle bracelet may not have the intended effect. Pals told TMZ they don't think Lindsay can refrain from using substances on a recreational basis.
"She can't make it through a day without it," one friend said. "She's a mess." And if she slips up, she could land in jail.
We're getting a bad feeling that this whole situation is going to get worse.
Looks like Sienna Miller's relationship with Jude Law is every bit as stormy the second time around. The lovers, reunited after infidelity destroyed their engagement four years ago, have been the picture of happiness until now. But last week, they had a very public blowout at a private club in London.
"They had this blazing row in front of everyone, and Sienna walked out," a source told the U.K.'s Daily Mail. "As soon as she left, Jude started blatantly chatting up another girl in the club at the bar. Then, after a while, Sienna came back. You should have seen her face when she saw Jude and this other girl."
However, the drama died down as suddenly as it began, the observer said.
After Megan Fox badmouthed "Transformers" director Michael Bay to the press, it was probably no shock that she got bumped from the cast of "Transformers 3." But sources say it wasn't the only reason the "Jennifer's Body" star got canned.
"Bay was on record saying she would be in the film even after she made those comments," an insider told the New York Post. "She also got into an argument with a [director of photography] while doing some preliminary work in Los Angeles earlier in May, which pushed things over the edge."
However, another source said it was Megan who jumped ship: "She made the decision not to do the project. Bay's just trying to spin it."
Kevin Jonas and his new wife, Danielle, are already sleeping in separate bedrooms, just months after their December wedding. But that doesn't mean the romance is already gone — it's just that the Jonas Brother's bride was unfamiliar with his noisy nocturnal habits.
"Kevin and Danielle had never spent a night together until their wedding night, so she had no clue that he snores so loudly," an insider told In Touch magazine. "She loves her husband, but now she sleeps in a guest room when he gets too noisy.
"They are still crazy about each other. But the snoring has become a big joke for their friends."
Guess this proves those purity rings were the real deal.

iPulse Systems sells biometric devices
with a one year, carry-in warranty that covers manufacturing faults at a
hardware level, and guarantees that the software will work as advertised. A
full copy of this warranty is available on our website, and should have been
included on your product CD.
However, in order to maintain your
biometric device, there are a number of processes that should be followed to
ensure that you get the best value from your investment. In order to explain
this, we have compiled this document to help you understand how our products
work, and what you are responsible for in order to maintain the devices, and
ensure their longevity.
Understanding the Software
iPulse software is made up of three
key components that drive the devices, and these are:
1) Operating
System (OS): This is
the underlying operating system that drives the hardware of the device.
2) Reader
Firmware: This is
the actual business logic that makes sure the readers are able to do what they
are supposed to, and allows them to interact with other programs and software
like the IQSuite
product range.
3) Secugen
Firmware: This is
provided by Secugen Corporation themselves, and drives the sensor operation and
fingerprint algorithm that is embedded in these devices.
iPulse takes responsibility for
investing in continual upgrades to the underlying Operating System (which we
change very seldom) and the iPulse reader firmware. These changes are made for
the following reasons:
1) Bugs: The iPulse firmware is stable and does not often require an
update for anything other than a minor bug, normally caused by new releases of
features. Updates for these reasons are normally denoted by a small point
increase if it's a little bug, ie, 6.2.33 to 6.2.34 or a medium point increase
if it's a larger one, ie 6.2.33 to 6.2.4. Such
updates are only suggested if the specific listed bug manifests on a particular
2) Performance: We are constantly seeking ways to improve the
performance of our readers, from a speed, reliability and longevity point of
view. Typical focus areas include better auditing features, more mature backup
features and easier field upgrade options (such as the X.3 OS upgrade).
These are normally part of major upgrade, ie, 6.2.33 to 6.3.0, or in some
cases, part of an underlying OS upgrade, ie, 1.2 to 1.3.
3) Features: This is the most common reason for firmware updates. It
is because of the new ranges of software packages, and the features that we
add, that updates and new features are often required on the hardware. Again,
if these are smaller features required for specific functions, these are
normally covered in a minor point increase, such as e, 6.2.33 to 6.2.34 or as
part of a major firmware upgrade, ieie 6.2.33 to 6.3.0. Such firmware updates
are normally accompanied by new versions of the IQSuite product range, that allow users to exploit these
new features, and should therefore only be done in conjunction with a software
4) Hardware Changes: Due the nature of our business, there are
sometimes unavoidable hardware component changes that need to be made.
Typically, this is due to a change in key components, such as a screen type or
other major component. In these cases, it is normally the operating system that
has to change, as the device requires new drivers to manage these new
components. This almost always will result in a major OS upgrade, ie, from 1.0
to 2.0.
In the unlikely event that a major
bug is discovered in the firmware, we notify our channel immediately, giving
them access to the tools to update readers in the field, and iPulse always ships
readers with the latest firmware. This is a given. However, the liability for
such an update is limited to our requirement to provide a fix within a
reasonable amount of time, and we are not in any way responsible for making
sure that readers in the field are updated. In the event of a major bug,
readers may be brought into iPulse for a free firmware upgrade if required.
With regards to the Secugen sensor firmware, changes are out of our
control, however, we are satisfied that when we ship a reader, the firmware is
stable and will operate perfectly for the lifetime of the product. Any benefits
to be gained from updating this firmware are not required, and therefore,
upgrades are only suggested rather than enforced.
Understanding the Hardware
The iPulse biometric devices are made up of a few key components, most
of which should last the average lifetime of the product. However, like all
such devices, there are a few components that are more susceptible to damage or
which can degrade in a less dependable manner.
The key two components to worry about in terms of most iPulse devices
are the following:
1) The
fingerprint sensor: This is
an optical device, which relies on the brightness of the light reflected to
operate at efficiency. Like any light-based device, it has an MTBF (Mean Time
Before Failure), which on these units, is roughly three to five years. However,
as this is an AVERAGE, some devices may start to offer less quality earlier
than others.
2) The
casing, and in particular, the keyboard: As the physical outer shell of the device, the
casing, and the keyboard in particular, take a lot of abuse during the life
time of a product, especially where the keyboard is used for time &
attendance, or pin code entries.
Aside from these two components, any
exposure to electricity spikes, or lightning, will obviously cause major
failure to the device, and this is the most common cause of devices failing in
the field.
The iPulse policy document has been
designed to allow for the management of the known issues that occur over the
lifetime of these products, and therefore addresses the two key components as
part of this document.
The Recommended
Maintenance Policy Explained
The key to understand this policy document is understanding what iPulse
is NOT responsible for, and therefore, what should be done by end customers,
preferably through their iPulse Authorised Dealer channel, to maintain the
quality of their products:
In general, iPulse biometric readers last longer than most competitive
products. Life expectancy is 60-72 months. Post this 60-month period, iPulse
will recommend that readers are uneconomical to repair. However, customers need
to understand that if they wish to enjoy the latest functions, features and
services offered by iPulse, that they need to continually perform PRE-EMPTIVE MAINTENANCE on these
This leads to the suggested maintenance plan iPulse
has put in place:
iPulse suggests that a reader be sent in
for a full software refresh every 18 months, and
for a full hardware check
(and possible casing/ keyboard replacement if required) every
36 months (i.e. every second maintenance
customers would rotate their readers, and make sure that every 18 months, all
readers are sent through for these quick service updates to iPulse Systems over
a period of time.
However, this is NOT the
responsibility of iPulse. This responsibility rests solely on the
shoulders of the customer, and the partner
who is supporting the site, if they are paid
to do this.
iPulse Systems therefore offers the following two pre-emptive
maintenance service options to customers who wish to follow this policy in
order to get the most out of their products from their customers. Please note
that all fees quoted are subject to change without notice, and that they
specifically EXCLUDE any fees or charges the supporting partner may charge in
order to remove, deliver, collect and re-install these readers.
Service Description
18 Month Service – Software
Readers are brought in for a full test,
software refresh and CMOS battery change. Provided that the reader is between
16 and 20 months old, this all-inclusive fee will waive any other labour
charges for these readers, provided that the reader is in a working condition
when brought in, and that no other repairs are required.
36 Month Service – Full Refresh
Readers are brought in for a full test,
software refresh, new sensor, CMOS battery change, and are also given a new
casing & keyboard. Provided that the reader is between 32 and 40 months
old, this all-inclusive fee will waive any other labour or component charge for
these readers, provided that the reader is in a working condition when
brought in, and that no other repairs are required. iPulse offers a 3 month
warranty on components replaced.

Newport in Newport County, Rhode Island — The American Northeast (New England)
Rovensky Park & Its Neighbors: Open Space Preserved
Endowed with spectacular natural scenery and a gentle climate, Newport was a gardener's paradise. This section of Bellevue Avenue reflects the rich horticultural heritage of the city and centuries of garden design, estate development, and land conservation. Beaulieu's extensive acreage was continually subdivided to make way for more summer cottages. The Widener family demolished three Victorian cottages to build the grand Miramar estate, famed for its formal French gardens. Today, Rovensky Park ensures the preservation of the area's historic character from being altered by new construction.
Voices from the Past
"The Island is exceedingly pleasant and healthful; and is celebrated for its fine women. Travelers, with propriety, call it the Eden of America"
Jedediah Morse writing on Newport and its environs in The United States of America, 1789
1. Rovensky Park
• The only undeveloped space on Bellevue Avenue, Rovensky Park was never the site of a building. Several prominent China Trade families with cottages on Bellevue Avenue owned parcels of the land that became Rovensky Park.
• In 1956 Mae C. Rovensky's will left a bequest to The Preservation Society of Newport County to acquire and maintain a park, creating what the bequest described as "breathing
"There is very little land available for such public use within the city limits . . . and the trend has been to convert all spaces in some utilitarian purpose like housing."
Robert Kerr, Director of The Preservation Society of Newport County, 1960.
2. Weetamoe
(c. 1872)
Architects : Peabody and Stearns
• Alfred Smith owned much of the farmland along Bellevue Avenue and promoted the area in the mid-19th century as a fashionable summer resort. He subdivided lots and encouraged the cottage construction boom during the 1870s.
• He sold the site of Weetamoe to Hannah Swift, who hired the prominent Boston firm of Peabody and Stearns to build her Stick Style cottage.
• Nathaniel Thayer III, grandson of a noted Massachusetts clergyman, purchased the house in 1902. The Frazer family eventually named it Catnip Cottage.
• The house remains a private residence.
3. Four Winds
(c. 1871)
Architects : George Champlin Mason, Sr.;
remodeled by Ogden Codman, Jr. in 1895
• George Champlin Mason, Sr. built a Stick Style house in 1871 for Harriet Crowninshield. She was a member of a prominent family of successful merchants and political leaders descended from some of the first
• Mason remodeled the house with Queen Anne Revival style additions in 1881 for Boston-based railroad investor Nathaniel Thayer, Jr., whose son later lived in the house to the north. In 1895, Thayer hired Ogden Codman, Jr. to design a Classical Revival style addition to keep up with the latest fashion.
• The house remains a private residence.
4. The Beeches
(c. 1870)
Architect : George Champlin Mason, Sr.
• George Champlin Mason, Sr. designed this Second Empire French style house for sugar merchant Moses Lazarus of New York, who lived in the house in the 1870s.
• Lazarus' daughter Emma became a prolific writer and feminist. An excerpt from her sonnet The New Colossus (1883) is inscribed on the base of the Statue of Liberty: "Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free . . . ".
• Moses supported Emma's writing both intellectually and financially. Transcendentalist writer Ralph Waldo Emerson also mentored and encouraged her.
• The Beeches remains a private residence.
5. Beaulieu
Architect : Calvert Vaux
• Peruvian ambassador Frederico Barreda built this Italianate style house in 1854 on his estate, which included about 15 acres now occupied by Clarendon Court and Miramar.
• Architect Calvert Vaux, who also designed Mrs. Astor's Beechwood two lots to the north, was renowned for his work on New York's Central Park with Frederick Law Olmsted.
• Mr. and Mrs. William Waldorf Astor owned Beaulieu from the 1870s to 1901, when it was sold to Brigadier General Cornelius Vanderbilt III and his wife Grace, a leading society hostess.
• The house remains a private residence.
6. Clarendon Court
Architect : Horace Trumbauer
• Horace Trumbauer modeled this Georgian Revival style house after an 18th century design by Colen Campbell. Clarendon Court was home to Edward Collins Knight, Jr., son of a Philadelphia sugar refiner and director of the Pennsylvania Railroad.
• The estate was acquired in 1930 by Mae Cadwell Hayward, who later married the powerful New York banker and financier, John E. Rovensky.
• The entrance gates to Clarendon Court were featured in the 1956 movie High Society starring Grace Kelly, Bing Crosby, and Frank Sinatra.
• Mr. and Mrs. Claus von Bulow owned Clarendow Court from 1970 to 1988.
• The house remains a private residence.
7. Miramar
Architect : Horace Trumbauer
• One of the last grand Gilded Age cottages, Miramar opened in 1915.
• George Widener, a Philadelphia transportation magnate, commissioned Horace Trumbauer to design the Classical Revival style Miramar. Although he had no formal training in architecture, Trumbauer had designed The Elms (1901), Chetwode (1903), and Clarendon Court (1904) on Bellevue Avenue.
• Mr. Widener and his son Harry died on the Titanic in 1912. George's widow, Eleanor Elkins Widener, completed Miramar. She also funded Harvard University's Harry Elkins Widener Memorial Library in her son's memory.
• Mrs. Widener died in 1937. Upon her second husband's death in 1957, Miramar passed to the Rhode Island Episcopal Diocese and later to a girls' school.
• Today, Miramar is a private residence. The house and grounds are undergoing extensive conservation.
Bellevue Avenue: A Preservation History
The Preservation Society of Newport County.
Bellevue Avenue National Historic Landmark District
Bellevue Avenue is a treasury of American architecture from the 19th and early 20th centuries. Generations of the nation's leading architects made Newport a laboratory for design during the city's "cottage" construction boom. This remarkable architectural legacy in American culture was almost lost through demolitions and neglect during the latter half of the 20th century.
This self guided walking tour consists of several history markers along both sides of Bellevue Avenue. Most of the buildings on this tour are private residences. Please respect their privacy.
The Bellevue Avenue History Marker Project is sponsored by The Preservation Society of Newport County, a nonprofit educational organization dedicated to preserving Newport's architectural heritage.

Words cannot describe how I feel.
I found out yesterday that my Father has Colon Cancer. This Cancer has been one of the number one killers in his family so right now I am devastated to say the least. At the same time I am also so mad and pissed at my Dad right now! He has apparently known for a month that he was sick and never even told me!
I try to keep track of all of his Doctor appointments and I ALWAYS ask him what happened and what they say. His famous saying is "They said I am going to live until I die" UGH this disturbs me so much! And the fact that he has known for a month and has yet to start treatment makes me so mad!
He has so much to live for yet it seems like he wants to give up. I will not allow this and I will push him forward and do what I have to do to make him want to fight and live. I still need him and my boys need him so he can not give up!!

Advanced E-Business Research
International Trends & Issues
Edited By Stephan Böhm, Werner Quint and Peter Winzer
Since years, e-business research is subject of many conferences and publications. While researchers and practitioners often focus on e-business systems and applications, so far little attention has been given to the development of innovative and sustainable e-business models and solutions. This publication fills this gap by discussing the following key issues: What are challenges and opportunities for international e-business? What are the barriers and risks for companies implementing e-business models? How can they succeed in the long-term? In this context, this publication provides in-depth studies of consumer needs, cultural requirements as well as conditions of economic efficiency and successful implementation of e-business solutions. It is intended for e-business novices as well as advanced researchers and practitioners.

The Perceived Usefulness of Personalized Product Information on B2C E-Commerce Websites and the Moderating Effect of National Culture
Werner Quint, Bastian Eine
Abstract: Today, B2C e-commerce websites integrate services that seem to be personally tailored to a certain customer, for example recommender systems, personal shopping lists, customer-specific assortments, customization, adaptive web sites, or comprehensive checkout support. This personalized product information is obtained by tracking, gathering, mining, and analyzing data to identify consumers and to customize their interaction with companies' products, services, or websites. But despite the convenience of online shopping and advantages of personalized product information, research has also shown that privacy, security, and trust play an important role in B2C e-commerce. Hence, this article proposes to analyze the influence of privacy concerns form personalization on perceived usefulness of personalized product information on B2C ecommerce websites. Also, this article suggests to incorporate cultural dimensions as a moderating effect to investigate whether culture has an influence on the relationship between these concepts. The results of a study should support the negative relationship between privacy concerns from personalization on perceived usefulness of personalized product information on B2C ecommerce websites. Further, there should be an influence on this relationship depending on the culture of the respondents. Overall, the results of this research should indicate a need to consider the influence of national culture when offering personalized product information on B2C e-commerce websites.
Keywords: personalized product information, privacy, culture, B2C e-commerce.

McDonald & Woodward Publishing Co., Blacksburg, Va. 1995.
Order from Lee Calhoun, 295 Blacktwig Rd., Pittsboro, NC 27312; ((919) 542-4480. Soft cover $40; hard cover $50; plus $3 S&H.
(Price/availability info may have changed since original publication of review.)
Lee Calhoun and I were introduced through the pages of Pomona (the NAFEX quarterly) several years ago; we share a common interest in old southern apples. Lee's efforts were toward their history and re-discovery. My interest was in how well they would grow in Indiana and in their resulting quality. The remarkable results of his efforts reside in this fine 326-page book.
The book begins with 40 large (8-1/2 x 11 in.) pages of fascinating history concerning cultivation practices and uses of apples in the Old South--yes, the anecdotes and folklore woven into the text do indeed make fascinating reading.
Before now no author has ever written a comprehensive book covering Southern apples. Why? Possibly partly because the South was in a depressed state for so many years after the Civil War--the time during which so much northern pomological literature was authored. This seems quite unfortunate when you finally realize that 1,300 unique apple varieties were developed in the South. Even more surprising is the fact that a credible, comprehensive book on the old southern apples can be written now. Thankfully, there are more than 3,000 paintings of apples in the pomological watercolor collection in the National Agricultural Library at Beltsville, Md. (reproductions of 48 of these fine paintings appear in the book). The library also has a comprehensive collection of old fruit catalogs, old books and magazines, agricultural bulletins, newspapers, state horticulture society minutes and letters as resources for the book. Weave in what elderly southerners still remember and you have a book that is not only full of good information but is fun to read.
Even the variety descriptions are good reading as well as definitive. For example (p 63): "Cullasaga (Winter Horse, Cullasaga, Callasaga): Nancy Bryson grew Cullasaga from a seed of the Horse apple about 1830 at her parents' home near Salem Methodist Church in Macon County, North Carolina. It was introduced by the great North Carolina pomologist Silas McDowell who named it for the nearby Cullasaja River and Gorge. In 1894 the original tree was still standing with a trunk almost ten feet in circumference.
"Old postal guides...show that this word has been spelled...Cullasaga, Cullasagee or Cullasaja...
"Cullasaga...was considered extinct by 1989. In March of that year, I received a letter from Bob Padgett who lives...in Macon County: 'My neighbors have a Cullasaga apple tree. It is a very tall tree and beginning to fall apart, but it still bears apples. It is reported to be over a hundred years old...'"
Another example (p 188): "Cranberry: The Cranberry is a Georgia apple described by Elliott (1855). The Cranberry Pippin is a different apple, from New York. The Scarlet Cranberry is a Virginia apple. The description below is for Cranberry..."
The variety descriptions are in two sections. The first section covers the more than 300 varieties known to be still grown. The second section includes the large number presumed to be extinct. The latter list is already out of date for several of its varieties have been found to still exist. Of course, that is the author's hope. Regretfully, one of the very great southern apples, Hall, so far has not been found.

This year has been a world wind of excitement
For our ornament this year I wanted to do something related to that of P getting a real flying job
(to learn about our little christmas tradition go here)
So we looked at different stores for a pre-made ornament and were not to happy from the selection so we decided to go diy.
We went to a hobby store and found a model propeller for $1.50
and painted it and made a hanger for it
This is what we came up with
We painted the tips silver
and P added the "company name" and year to make it look more authentic
Do you make your own ornaments? Are they sentimental?

Summer is fast approaching. Here comes the most active season of the year when the entire family spends the whole day outdoors. You do the same activities as last year. So to create something new for this year's summer, why not add some music to your outdoor activities?
Many companies are coming up with different equipment to make life better and more fun. One of the most awesome inventions is the loud shower speaker.
The shower speaker lives up to its name. It is a kind of wireless speaker that can be used in bathrooms, hence, it is waterproof. Instead of cables, shower speakers receive audio signals through radio frequency waves.
Loud shower speaker: Criteria to consider
Shower speakers can be used not only in the bathrooms but also in parks, pools, boats and other outdoor places you could think of. They can also be used as loud speakers during video conferences in meetings or family communications. They are very convenient because they do not require cables or difficult installations.
Are you planning to buy and experience a shower speaker? Here are some criteria to consider when looking for a loud shower speaker:
Sound quality
Since you are buying a speaker, check its sound quality if it is good and is not broken. It must provide high quality audio consistently and without any distortion at a high volume. You do not want to damage your ears or irritate your sense of hearing for buying a low quality shower speaker.
Water resistance
A loud shower speaker is rugged in construction and at least splash proof so it can withstand water. It is intended for wet conditions. If a shower speaker you bought becomes damaged, you bought a low quality type.
Shower speakers are generally small in size and light in weight. They are portable enough for you to carry around at your relative comfort.
Functionality refers to the number of controls you can use to adjust the shower speaker depending on your preference. The more controls it has, the better the shower speaker is. Most shower speakers allow you to answer phone calls, play songs, control the volume, talk to Siri, and more.
Winning loud shower speakers
Today, there are vast array to shower speakers to choose from. All of them seem to be perfect and are of excellent quality. But among this wide selection, only a few are portable, loud, functional and water resistant. Check out the following winning loud shower speakers listed below:
Mimoday Bluetooth Speakers
Mimoday Bluetooth Speaker is a one pound waterproof speaker that produces superior sound quality. It can play up to eight hours of music and comes with a very portable, rechargeable battery. It is equipped with Activ8 shock proof and IPX5 splash proof technology.
It has a built in speaker phone which can be used as far as 33 feet. It is built with Bluetooth 4.0 microphone so you can receive calls anywhere you are. There are a lot of features with the Mimoday Bluetooth Speaker.
SoundX Bluetooth Shower Speaker
SoundX Bluetooth Shower Speaker has a pretty, unique design. It has splash proof IPX4 approved build making it durable and waterproof. You can operate it with its hand free controls. Smartphones, tablets and other devices can be paired with it.
It can be conveniently brought outdoors anywhere. Whether you are having a good shower or having fun under the sun, SoundX Bluetooth Shower Speaker can provide you hours of quality sound experience.
There are more types of shower speakers that come in different sizes, shapes and features. But not all promise high quality construction and sound. Therefore, it is always a good idea to check on the abovementioned criteria, portability, functionality, water resistance, and sound quality, when buying.
Loud shower speakers are always the best choices. They provide sounds that do not break even at the highest volumes. They come with quality bass and power that make the party or any other activity lively and more fun.
Once you have your own shower speaker, summer will be more fun and lively and showers will be more musically enjoyable. Truly, this modern era has brought devices that make life better and worth living.

One of the reasons I love yoga is because it's something that you can do anywhere and everywhere. All you need is a mat (and maybe a block), or sometimes you don't even need anything. I go to the gym only very occasionally. Most of the time I do body weight exercises and I have a set of resistance bands (more on that later). I love body weight exercises for the same reason. You can do it anywhere, everywhere – at home, at the park, at the office, in the hotel room…. and you do not need expensive gear. So I am thinking of introducing a series of fun body weight exercises on my blog. The first one….
Captain's Chair
What you need: 2 chairs
1. Place two heavy, stable chairs about 3 feet apart and have their backs facing towards each other. Place your hands on the top of the back of the chairs.
2. Lift the legs upwards and while exhaling at the same time. You can keep the knees bent so the thighs are approximately parallel to the floor. Inhale as you lower the legs to the starting position. Repeat.
Aim for 4 sets of 10-12 raises.
Variation: You can add the side twist (as you can see in the video)
Target muscles: Lower rectus abdominus, hip flexors, external obliques. Triceps and shoulders to lift the body in the air.

They say you can tell a lot about a person based on how they keep their car, well I guess this means Gil is a clean 2000 4Dr Rally Red Honda Civic LX sedan that runs as good as it looks. With that said where do we start? The car is immaculate , the exterior has front and rear bumpers from 96-98 sir as well as a 96-98 sir front lip and folding mirrors.
Photos by: TJ Chun exclusive for JDM-Culture
Inside the care has the same attention to detail as the outside vi-rs front and rear floor mats, seats and door panels, vi-rs armrest with ashtray, type R e-brake, EL center console, type R shift both and a Arc shift knob
The dash is EDM spec and features a Honda Navigation System with Gathers TV Tuner and Gathers under seat Sub Woofer, talk about unique but wait there is more. It also has Mugen cluster, racing wheel with horn, pedals and rear view mirror cover.
Not only is this car easy on the eye but it also has had work done to both the engine and suspension. Killa-uea rolls on Re barreled Mugen MF7 16x9s wrapped with Yokohama S Drives 195/45/16 all round.
Tanabe Sustec Pro Coil overs on all 4 corners of the car along with a purple Beaks bar, Spoon lover tie bar and Skunk2 camber kits give it a tight setup and mean stance. The stopping power was upgraded to Spoon 4 pot twin block calipers up front.
Last but certainly not the least lets talk ENGINE. We all know that the Honda's B series is no joke, Killa-uea has a Japanese spec B18 with Mugen intake, headers, polished valve cover as well as Skunk2 intake manifold and Honda intake manifold gasket.
The brain of the operation is a Honda S300 plug and play module in the ECU. To cool down all that HOTNESS, a C&R radiator is used along with Spoon radiator hoses.
Having a car that is not only catching, but fun and practical with some power under the hood for those days when you just want to put your foot down I feel this is what Gil has accomplished with this ride.

How Do I Listen To This? Tyondai Braxton's Favourite LPs
Lottie Brazier
, March 20th, 2017 13:05
As he prepares to to play London's Convergence Festival and other UK venues, Tyondai Braxton guides Lottie Brazier through 13 key records, from Brian Eno to Mark Fell, Autechre and Florian Hecker
Atom TM – Liedgut
Both of Atom TM's records on the Raster-Noton label are some of my favorite electronic records ever made. Liedgut was his first one for the label. It feels cinematic without being pandering. Inventive and beautiful. Being that it's electronic, and just that it in its own particular style, it's a lot more having to do with texture and sound design. But then there's this weird kind of melodic framework that goes in and out throughout the record, that's very "hypermelodic". Very consonant. It almost sounds like… you know those snow-globes that have a twisting belt? Like a music box. It's texturally focused sound design. And he's able to go back and forth here in a way that's really compelling. And again, you can tell it's very intuitive - he's just going where the music takes him. In a world of forward thinking electronic music, where anyone can pick up a computer and do this thing, his voice is so unique. I'd be able to pick him out of a thousand records – his own distinct voice. I really love his records, especially the ones he did for Raster-Noton.

Neil McCann demanded a reaction from his listless players both privately and publicly in the aftermath of Tuesday's dismal loss at Tynecastle, and he got what he was looking for at Dens Park yesterday. The hosts played throughout with a confidence and urgency utterly missing in midweek, earning themselves a valuable victory against fellow relegation battlers and some penalty-kick redemption for what occurred the last time these sides met.
In their October trip to Firhill, McCann's men dominated the game yet left with nothing thanks in large part to a curious first-half turning point. Leading 1-0, Dundee were then awarded a penalty to double their advantage. Goalscorer A-Jay Leitch-Smith demanded the ball from designated taker Sofien Moussa, only to miss the spot kick. Thistle would go on to win the match 2-1, handing Dundee what would turn out to be their second defeat in a run of five. They've not been out of the bottom four since.
So you can only imagine there must have been some trepidation when, after Moussa hit the deck inside the penalty box and was awarded the foul, Leitch-Smith initially picked up the loose ball. This time he resisted the temptation to break rank, handing it to his team-mate to confidently stroke into the back of the net.
While yesterday's result won't haul them out of the relegation picture, it at least gives them some much-needed breathing room with Motherwell, Celtic and St Johnstone to face before the winter break.
"I think today we've shown the application and the responsibility to go and do what we're good at," said McCann. "I'm really happy with the performance, some really good individual performances inside an overall team one.
"Moussa was up against three uncompromising central defenders and I felt he linked the game well.
"The big thing for me today was energy levels and we broke forward with unbelievably good purpose and that really put Partick on the back foot."
Dundee were so energised in the opening ten minutes that Alan Archibald was persuaded to change the shape of his Thistle side. The 3-5-2 formation, which helped them defeat Motherwell in midweek, was quickly ditched in favour of a 4-2-3-1, though it made little difference to the flow of the game. A minute after Moussa's penalty, the home side went close again when Leith-Smith's shot was deflected over. The goalscorer then headed over from a Mark O'Hara cross.
It would be the latter who doubled the advantage. The midfielder was in the right place to rifle home from inside the six-yard box after Leitch-Smith's shot was parried out by Thomas Cerny following a Faissal El Bakhtaoui cross.
Thistle would finish the half the stronger of the two sides but couldn't find the goal to give them a lift before the break. Miles Storey shot wide before Ryan Edwards had an effort from inside the area hit Jack Hendry and bounce clear. Edwards would then get on the end of a Conor Sammon cross, but failed to divert it goalbound.
Thistle introduced Chris Erkine for Storey at the half and then brought on Steven Lawless after just six minutes, but the changes made little impact. Despite enjoying some early pressure, they couldn't force Elliot Parish into making a save, and the game was over as a contest when Danny Devine conceded his second penalty of the game, this time fouling Cammy Kerr. Moussa once again sent Cerny the wrong way.
The result could have been even more emphatic with O'Hara going close with a drive from 25 yards , while a thunderous strike at the back post was pushed over by Cerny.

Elmer villagers rescued from flooding
Emergency services used boats to reach about 250 homes in a West Sussex village flooded by 6ft (2m) of water after days of torrential rain.
Evacuees were being taken to Arun Leisure Centre, where the fire service had set up a command centre.
Arun District Council housing officers have been helping people find alternative accommodation.
The council has set up two other rest centres and has housed some residents in bed and breakfast accommodation.
Roads impassable
More than 20 people, including several children, were rescued from flooded caravans at two holiday parks in Bracklesham Bay between 05:00 and 07:00 BST.
Flood waters also reached the Manorfield care home in nearby Earnley.
Owner Tina Buckley said the care home did not have sand bags but staff were wrapping sand in blankets to stop water from reaching exterior bedroom doors.
Seven schools in Bognor Regis and Chichester were closed, with another two partly closed, because of the conditions.
Felpham Community College was also closed after routes into Felpham were made dangerous for people to use.
The college said examinations would not take place and examination boards would be contacted concerning dispensation.
Many roads have been impassable due to flooding since Monday, when rail services were also affected.
The main roads through Felpham and Shripney remained closed on Tuesday evening.
Bill Todd, president of the members-only Bracklesham Caravan and Boat Club, said about eight people who had been planning to spend the whole of the summer season on the site had been rescued.
"They were literally marooned - a lot of the caravans have gone," he said.
Another 16 people had to be rescued from the Sussex Beach holiday park in Clappers Lane, Bracklesham.
Cows rescued
Wiggonholt, near Pulborough, received 72mm of rain in 24 hours, almost one and a half times its monthly average for June, while fire crews across West Sussex dealt with more than 650 emergency calls in 18 hours - the same number they usually receive in a month.
Earlier, West Sussex County Council said surface water was still affecting many main roads and pumps and other equipment was being used.
West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service said the majority of calls it had dealt with were to the west of the county, but there had also been a number inland, specifically at Broadbridge Heath, Kirdford and Washington.
On Monday evening, RSPCA officers were called out to save a herd of cows from drowning after the River Arun burst its banks next to their field in Old Wickhurst Lane, Broadbridge Heath.
Insp Rosie Russon said: "The cattle were stuck on a small patch of the field and we had to persuade them to walk through 5ft of fast flowing water to get to the gate and out on the lane so they could be moved to another field."
Alan Jones, head of emergency management at West Sussex County Council, said although the situation was starting to improve across the county there were still some residents that had been moved out of their homes or who had had damage to their properties.
"We're obviously going to want to support them very closely over the coming days to try and make sure that things can be recovered for them and they can be back into their properties as soon as possible," he said.
Roads affected by flooding include the A29 in Shripney, the A259 in Felpham, and the A281 in Henfield.
The Environment Agency said between 5mm and 15mm of rain fell across the South East overnight on Monday.
It said two flood warnings had been issued for the River Arun watercourse at the Aldingbourne Rife in Bersted and Felpham, and residents were advised to prepare for flooding.
Arun council said it had received a number of inquiries about sand bags, and advised members of the public to purchase them from local builders' merchants or make their own using pillowcases filled with mud and sand.
Flood warnings issued on Monday for the River Mole in West Sussex at Charlwood, Hookwood, Sidlow, Leigh and Betchwood have been downgraded to flood alerts.

So even more incentives to bring Achilles instead. got it!
Bobblehead replied to Rin's topic in ALEPHBecause it is based on Kali, the hindu goddess of death
Bobblehead replied to ChoKonnit's topic in Information From Distributors and ShopsHi I like to get: 1x Kriza Boracs + MK12 1x Yudbot 1xNetrod
Move along, misread the title.
You are aware that i said rule BOOK not rules PDF? Ist easy to follow, read BS attack, says you need LoF, read what is LoF done. Total cover is covered in the LoF rules by not being able to see any part of the silhouette.
You have to follow the conversation from the beginning where i states the criteria of making a BS attack as per P14 of the rulebook.
Thats what the other part i typed was there for... " But you will still need to have to draw a line to your target and parts of its silhouette to declare a BS attack. "
Bullitin one of SSL2 says regardless of facing. So facing of the model with SSL2 doesent matter if getting attacked, and every one can shoot back through smoke, only thing SSL2 does is removes the -6 to shoot back. But you will still need to have to draw a line to your target and parts of its silhouette to declare a BS attack. The answer to you question is actually stated in the wiki now that im reading it there. Just read the Sixth Sense Special Skill and Guided weaponry and how you can respond. Its basically the same as getting shoot "through" total cover
Page 14 in the rule book. BS attack in the introduction section. No were in the SSL2 rule does it state that it overrides the basic need to be able to draw LoF to its target to declare BS attack. It only states that it can respond with a FtF roll even when outside LoF.
Bobblehead replied to Daboarder's topic in PanOceaniaWas close to getting back into PanO (And Varuna). But then the updated Kamau profile got released, interest disappeared and memories why i got rid of my PanO came back. PanO tax for being PanO and uninspiring profiles. Kamau is just Fusiliers with mimetism and an MSV2 sniper profile and LGL xvisor got fired. Was it that hard to maybe give them a spitfire instead of the usual HMG or a dual smg if they didn't want to give them shotguns. And al that for 11p extra... Its like the Dragoe paying 0,5 SWC more than almost identical tag the Szalamandra for reasons. Regular FO in acontecimento paying 0,5 SWC for yet more reasons. What i find interesting is that when PanO gets new profiles its mostly mhe, when other factions gets new profiles they are mostly nice.
Bobblehead replied to BlackCadian's topic in Rules of EngagementThere is nothing called a trap door. Its just a normal door but in a horizontal position. So you just move up to the door as normal and open it with a short skill. If there is a model on top of the horizontal door when opened it will fall down and take falling damage as there is no longer any surface covering the entire base (Just as when you misjudged jump distance and the entire base doesn't have a surface under it to stand on) There is nothing preventing you from interacting with an object as long as any part of your silhouette is touching said object. (your entire silhouette is considered your base in regards if you are in base to base contact with something) And as for ladders, its just as Robock says. Moving on ladders is just normal horizontal movement but vertically without any penalties. If there is a model just at the edge of a ladder and there is no lip, parts of your silhouette can most likely see it and shoot it even if its prone.
Bobblehead replied to Col's topic in Infinity newsJust going to say on thing.. - Military Orders Starter box Remember, you heard it here first! And by the way. wasnt there talk about the Caledonians getting released around April/May some moths ago?
Bobblehead replied to Atrotos's topic in ALEPHI use Thrasymedes (infiltrator) often. Push a button, put it in cover, then put it in suppression for that -12 to hit. I like it even in none button pushing missions just for the ability to quickly putt an ODD guy in a good position midfield in suppression fire. When i use Diomedes (Not very often) i use him as a scalpel, using his stealth and super jump to move around a pick out the things that mean trouble for the rest of the list. (Like those MSV2 dudes hiding on rooftops or hackers when i using Achilles) Hes also really good for controlling the movement of impetuous/extreme impetuous troops and forcing them in to your MSV2 snipers. I've only used Agema missile launcher once, thats mostly down to my dislike of the missile launcher on units that doesn't have TO or is in a link.
Bobblehead replied to Melkhior's topic in Infinity newsShhhhhh... Dont say that out to loud. ALEPH players might get offended by Tohaa bragging about getting lots of new stuff.
Bobblehead replied to Perseus's topic in Infinity newsSome questions that appeard in my mind after seing the pic of the "New Al fassed" Why does it have the same pistol as Hector? Why does it look like there is a chunk of miniature missing on the hip area of the raise leg? It feels iffy to me.

Summer is a fun time of year to make memories with family and friends, but according to the U.S. Department of Transportation, statistically speaking, it can be a very dangerous time.
The risks of being involved in a traffic collision jump up much higher over the summer months. Some of the reason for that is that three of the major holidays take place over the summer. Below are the accident fatalities from a recent year for the following holidays:
-- Memorial Day weekend (473 deaths)
-- 4th of July weekend (410 deaths)
-- Labor Day weekend (360 deaths)
As you might imagine, people traveling on those holidays will be at more of a risk than those that stay home.
The driving risk during summer is highest of all for those age 15 to 20, however. The reasons for that are pretty simple; as newly licensed drivers, they have much less driving experience and are easily distracted. Also, teens and young adults tend to be on the road more because school is out of session and they have more free time.
According to the National Highway Safety Traffic Administration, younger drivers have three times the risk of being involved in a fatal collision when compared to older drivers.
How can you keep teens safer when driving? Forbidding them to drive with friends in the car is a good idea, as friends increase the likelihood of distractions for teens. Other measures might include using a tracking device to monitor driving patterns and speeds.
If you or a family member get injured in a collision this summer, you have the right to pursue compensation from an at-fault driver for any injuries you suffer.

Health is the level of functional or metabolic efficiency of a living organism. In humans it is the ability of individuals or communities to adapt and self-manage when facing physical, mental or social challenges. The World Health Organization (WHO) defined health in its broader sense in its 1948 constitution as "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." This definition has been subject to controversy, in particular as lacking operational value and because of the problem created by use of the word "complete" Other definitions have been proposed, among which a recent definition that correlates health and personal satisfaction. Classification systems such as the WHO Family of International Classifications, including the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) and the International Classification of Diseases (ICD), are commonly used to define and measure the components of health. Health is that balanced condition of the living organism in which the integral, harmonious performance of the vital functions tends to the preservation of the organism and the normal development of the individual.
Health is an attribute assigned to entities within a role-playing or video game that indicates its state in combat. Health is usually measured in health points or hit points, often shortened as HP. When the HP of a player character reaches zero, the player may lose a life or their character might become incapacitated or die. When the HP of an enemy reaches zero, the player might be rewarded in some way.
Any entity within a game could have a health value, including the player character, non-player characters and objects. Indestructible entities have no diminishable health value.
Health might be displayed as a numeric value, such as "50/100". Here, the first number indicates the current amount of HP an entity has and the second number indicates the entity's maximum HP. In video games, health can also be displayed graphically, such as with a bar that empties itself when an entity loses health (a health bar), icons that are "chipped away" from, or in more novel ways.
Dungeons & Dragons co-creator Dave Arneson described the origin of hit points in a 2002 interview. When Arneson was adapting the medieval wargame Chainmail (1971) to a fantasy setting, a process that with Gary Gygax would lead to Dungeons & Dragons, he saw that the emphasis of the gameplay was moving from large armies to small groups of heroes and eventually to the identification of one player and one character that is essential to role-playing as it was originally conceived. Players became attached to their heroes and did not want them to die every time they lost a die roll. Players were thus given multiple hit points which were incrementally decreased as they took damage. Arneson took the concept, along with armor class, from a set of a naval American Civil War game's rules.
Health: An Interdisciplinary Journal for the Social Study of Health, Illness and Medicine is a bimonthly peer-reviewed healthcare journal that covers research in the fields of health and the social sciences. The journal was established in 1997 with Alan Radley Loughborough University) as founding editor and is published by SAGE Publications.
Health is abstracted and indexed in Scopus and the Social Sciences Citation Index. According to the Journal Citation Reports, its 2013 impact factor is 1.324, ranking it 70 out of 136 journals in the category "Public, Environmental & Occupational Health (SSCI)" and 18 out of 37 journals in the category "Social Sciences, Biomedical".
A plan is typically any diagram or list of steps with timing and resources, used to achieve an objective. See also strategy. It is commonly understood as a temporal set of intended actions through which one expects to achieve a goal. For spatial or planar topologic or topographic sets see map.
Plans can be formal or informal:
The most popular ways to describe plans are by their breadth, time frame, and specificity; however, these planning classifications are not independent of one another. For instance, there is a close relationship between the short- and long-term categories and the strategic and operational categories.
