First Empire
The origins of the empire date from the late 16th cent. with the private commercial ventures, chartered and encouraged by the crown, of chartered companies. These companies sometimes had certain powers of political control as well as commercial monopolies over designated geographical areas. Usually they began by setting up fortified trading posts, but where no strong indigenous government existed the English gradually extended their powers over the surrounding area. In this way scattered posts were established in India and the East Indies (for spices, coffee, and tea), defying Portuguese and later Dutch hegemony, and in Newfoundland (for fish) and Hudson Bay (for furs), where the main adversaries were the French.
The early 18th cent. saw a reorganization and revitalization of many of the old chartered companies. In India, from the 1740s to 1763, the British East India Company and its French counterpart were engaged in a military and commercial rivalry in which the British were ultimately victorious. The political fragmentation of the Mughal empire permitted the absorption of one area after another by the British. The Treaty of Paris (1763; see under Paris, Treaty of) firmly established the British in India and Canada, but the financial burdens of war involved the government in difficulties with the American colonies. The success of the American Revolution marked the end of the first British Empire.
Second Empire
The voyages of Capt. James Cook to Australia and New Zealand in the 1770s and new conquests in India after 1763 opened a second phase of territorial expansion. The victories of the Napoleonic Wars added further possessions to the empire, among them Cape Colony, Mauritius, Ceylon (Sri Lanka), Trinidad and Tobago, St. Lucia, British Guiana (Guyana), and Malta. During the second empire mercantilist ideals and regulations were gradually abandoned in response to economic and political developments in Great Britain early in the 19th cent....

Dear Blog Followers,
Hollee and I have decided that skyping is the greatest thing life has to offer best friends who live 300 miles apart. Not only does it allow us to see each other on a frequent basis, BUT it allows us to slack on whatever we should be doing in life...and have a couple beers/alcoholic beverages "together." This started with a different kind of beverage. In college, Hollee and I used to have coffee on the porch every morning before watching Regis and Kelly (and sometimes going to class). Now, we have coffee on the skype instead. This turned into skype partying, which we have discovered is awesome. As I compose this blog, Hollee is "here" with me. We are co-writing this one via Skype.
We don't really have anything to say, Hollee should be packing for the big move in with my bff's from high school. (Side note: this makes me super happy, my best friends from high school, aka M7, are so so great and mean the world to me, and the fact that my best friend from college/life, not only gets along with, but LOVES them, makes me so happy.) So that's what she should be doing and I should be cleaning my apartment for her arrival. Instead, we are hangin' out on Skype, texting, calling and gchatting our friends (aka AP and Jessica.)
So, 02:22, is the running skype ticker time. It is what it is...Hollee just snorted laughing so hard...she doesn't know I wrote that part. She can only see me writing this, but doesn't know what I am typing. Haa....okay, goodnight.

"Mythological language raises very difficult if not impossible problems." Discuss this statement by examining both verification and falsification.
"A myth is a symbolic approximate expression of truth, which the human mind cannot perceive sharply and completely, but can only glimpse vaguely, and therefore cannot adequately or accurately express." – Millar Burrows.
In the context of religion, myths can be taken to mean stories about God which have vital meanings for an individual, a community, a nation or the cosmos. Myths embody and express claims which cannot be expressed in any other way.
Myth is the most complex type of symbolic language because it uses symbols, metaphors and imagery. They use them to explain the unexplainable and to give insights into human existence.
Mythology does not convey information that isn't true. They convey concepts that go way beyond the true/false descriptors. They express stories that are "other worldly". They allow humans to gain insight into two very important questions; the cosmological question about the meaning of life and the existential question about emotions, feelings, believing etc.
Mythological language was used a lot by the biblical writers. They have been included in the ideas such as creation, the fall and the flood. Within the Bible myths also attempt to explain the mystery of human origins and human nature. There have been a brave set of people over the last forty years, who have chosen to say a lot of religious statements are myths – which has challenged existing beliefs.
There are of course many examples of religious myths and there are tree ways in which the word myth can be used in religious language:
* The myth could be a story which isn't true, but has some other value. Braithwaite believed that they were inspirational as they make us motivated.
* It could be a literary device. Ineffable, i.e. beyond language, unexplainable.
* A method of interpreting "ultimate reality". They open up like symbols, they have new levels of reality or as Randal argues their purpose is to bind communities together.
Biblical stories which seem meaningless to scientists are more understandable if you think of them as another language. Myths are extremely powerful in their metaphor or symbolic meanings. If you don't take a literal view, and you consider the Bible is supposed to be recording history or science then yes, a lot of the Bible is false.
For example, can you calculate the age of the world from the Bible? Yes, if you take it literally, but that would be wrong because scientists have enough evidence to prove that the world is much older than that. What one does, if we interpret the Bible in a mythological sense, is side step the facts to make them more meaningful i.e. "the world is a few thousand years old," could just simply be saying God made it.
So referring to the statement, "mythological language raises very difficult if not impossible problems" It is clear that even more than symbols, myths seem outdated. In the 19th century, D.F. Strauss suggested that we need to shift the focus of myth from "the story of a miraculous occurrence, to the story of a miraculous occurrence." This basically means in the first case, it is assumed that an objective true narrative about a miracle is being expressed, in the second, that an embodied religious truth is being conveyed in a story form and isn't necessarily true.
Another critic of the use of mythological language was Rudolph Bultmann who said that we must not take myths literally. The Bible should be seen as a myth and only by reading the Bible as mythological text can we fully understand it. The Bible was written in a pre-scientific age when mythological language had a lot of meaning, i.e. the three levels of Hell, Earth and Heaven.
Now that the world view has changed we have got to strip the Bible of its myths so that we can understand it again. Bultmann doesn't mean cut them out, he means re-interpret them, demythologise them. He believed that it is impractical for humanity in modern times to believe such outdated stories: "It is impossible to use electric light and the wireless and to avail ourselves of modern medical and surgical discoveries and, at the same time, to believe in the New Testament of demons and spirits."
"The real point of a myth is not to give an objective world picture; what is expressed in it, rather is how we human beings understand ourselves with the world."
Bultmann's main example of a myth was Luke's explanation of Jesus being born in a stable. Strip away the myths and you see that it's saying God can be found in the most humble and excluded parts of the world. Also the resurrection, he suggests is showing the re-invention of the people as they become Christians.
Bultmann claims myth made it harder to grasp the Biblical truth. However, if you start doing this, then you end up saying that mythical language is meaningless, which is wrong because you shouldn't underestimate myth and its power.
However it undermines their status as true accounts and events. Yet some believers take them to be true which of course gives them meaning.
Another philosopher to agree with the statement is Richard Dawkins, who commented in 'The God Delusion', "…much of the bible is… just plain weird, as you would expect of a chaotically cobbled-together anthology of disjointed documents, composed, revised, translated, distorted and 'improved' by hundreds of anonymous authors.." He could also have added that this was put together during the course of many centuries.
Significantly the difference between Bultmann and Dawkins is that Bultmann still maintained that there was truth to be extracted from the mythological narrative once the myth was stripped away.
However, those who are in support of myth, claim that, since religious language is anti-realist, it is not concerned with making true or false statements. J.W. Rogerson wrote: "Because myths have their birth not in logic but in intuitions of transcendence, they are of value to traditions that seek to describe the action of the other worldly in the present world."
So in conclusion, it is important to understand how myths should be interpreted rather than being concerned to establish what the facts of the matter actually are. We have to remember how these stories were heard, i.e. in the context of simple people. This was a language they could understand and images and pictures that related to ordinary readers and listeners to religious works. This allowed the underlying meanings to be absorbed without needing a great education.

Starting a small business is a daunting task for anyone. To be effective at anything, however, requires the right tools. Such tools in this case mean the right kind of equipment. For small businesses, these are not as obvious as they might first seem and their importance is often underestimated.
Most places, when sitting up for the first time, will have decided on where to locate their offices. Justifications for office space are usually centered around affordability, distance from home, actual size, parking access and availability, and so on. But, what we also forget, is in relation to equipment: How good is the space in regards to internet access and wireless functionality? How old are the wires and are you within easy reach of service people? And so on.
For example, as IT Donut highlights, even though it's wireless, it still is impacted by physical dimensions of your office space.
"A standard wireless access point can sometimes reach devices 40 metres away, but local circumstances can affect the range a lot. Thick walls, ceilings and metal obstacles can significantly reduce the range. Using several access points provides more reliable coverage and capacity for more devices."
Again, you do need equipment and you might need to help acquire this with equipment finance. But you still need the space to put these in and to have the right space.
You then need the right equipment. This means having the right computers, desks, chairs, lighting, printers, and so on that will allow your office to function without requiring the services of other businesses: That is, done properly, you can set up your business such that you don't need to leave your office to get your job done to a satisfactory degree.
As Small Business Chronicle highlights:
"Small office entrepreneurs are often on tight budgets. Take a smart approach to shopping for equipment. Compare prices across multiple manufacturers and retailers. Use price comparison search engines to find the best deals online. Factor in shipping charges and compare with local retailers. This can especially make a difference when ordering large items, including desks and chairs. Check for discount codes, coupons and rebates. Used equipment can be a money-saving option, especially when shopping for furniture."
What makes a small business survive is knowing what is essential and what is frivolous; and not deluding ourselves into mixing the two. Equipment is essential - but knowing which equipment is essential can be boon or bust for us.

Established in 2005 to supply quality reusable furniture in the Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames, Kingston Community Furniture have grown and now offer services across 4 Surrey Boroughs as well.
In October 2013 we joined with Staywell which has allowed us to offer an enhanced Housing Options service for those thinking of moving or downsizing. Please click on the panel to the right to find details of how to access this service
We are always delighted to supply furniture to those in need in any of the areas we cover. If you would like to speak to someone about this, telephone the number at the top of this page; if you prefer please e mail.
KCF are proud to be members of both the London and Surrey Reuse Networks. Working collaboratively with other reuse partners makes it possible to achieve a lot more. Jointly, KCF have been able to offer reuse services and clearance facilities to local businesses, colleges, churches and local councils. This is on top of the thousands of households we have helped over the years.
You can be assured of the quality of KCF's services. We are accredited by the Furniture Reuse network as an 'Approved Reuse Centre'. This means that all aspects of our operations are subject to annual scrutiny to ensure best standards and practices.
Our environmental impact shows a record of solid and ongoing achievement. Not only does reuse avoid throwing bulky items into unsightly landfill sites, it also saves thousands of tonnes of harmful carbon emissions every year. It is estimated that every tonne of furniture reused saves 3.45 tonnes of carbon emissions.
Recycling also plays a vital part in our work. We are always collecting lots of bulky items that cannot be reused but, they can often be recycled. To achieve this, we deconstruct items breaking them down into smaller parts that can be reused as spares or recycled.
A typical example would be a battered and torn old armchair. This very likely comprises a mixture of textiles (the cover), wood (the frame) and metal (the springing); all can be recycled once they are separated.
KCF are always looking for new ways to increase our outreach and our environmental record. Recently, operating with a commercial partner, we have been able to add mattress recycling to our portfolio. This is a very significant initiative to minimise waste and avoid landfill. To find out more, click on the mattress recycling link towards the top right of this page.

Gloria Arroyo bats for harmonious relations between PHL, China
Former president and now Pampanga Rep. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo has underscored the need to promote a harmonious relationship between the Philippines and China.
Arroyo made the statement in her speech after being elected as chair of the Association for Philippine-China Understanding (APCU).
"[O]ur country's political environment is truly the time to work for the 'strong and healthy relations between the Philippines and China that promotes peace, harmony and prosperity among their peoples' that APCU's vision declares," she said.
The APCU, a recognized and accredited people-to-people organization in China, was co-founded by Arroyo in the early 1970s.
The organization played a vital role in the establishment of the Philippine diplomatic relations with China.
APCU GA on July 10
The Association for Philippine-China Understanding (APCU) will hold a general assembly meeting on July 10 at 3 pm at the New Quezon City Library beside Quezon City Hall, according to its Executive Director Peter Arce.
APCU is the oldest non-government organization promoting good relations with China dating back during the early 1970s. It is engaged in people-to-people diplomacy and is recognized by the Chinese government as the Philippine representative to the China-ASEAN people-to-people association.

Yesterday was one of the hardest days since bringing my son home with us. But, it was also one of the most rewarding. My son and I battled. I held him for over an hour while he tried to get his way. He used hitting, kicking, biting, pinching, screaming and tears to try to win me over to his side of the argument. I prayed and sang hymns to myself while I stayed calm, and stayed the course. I was exhausted by the time that child fell asleep for his nap. He slept. Fast forward to bedtime. I was nervous, but ready. I sat down in the rocking chair with my son, who talked and cooed away at me. When I laid him down he giggled, said something to me (Im guessing, thank you for making me obey) and rolled over to sleep.
I have always believed that boundaries help children feel safe and loved. As many of you know I am pretty strict with my kids. They work hard and they have as much responsibility as I think they can handle(many may not agree with what i think they can handle). But I try to play hard with them as well as rewarding them as much as possible. I love taking them to all their favorite places and rewarding them with special treats. Probably I learned this way of parenting from my own parents, but I also think I have been given a clear guide in the bible. i believe that my day yesterday was a perfect picture or our salvation. Christ keeps telling us that his way is better, but we kick and scream trying to get out of it, only to see that He is right. His way is better. Christ expects a lot from us, our entire selves. But the reward is great!
So, yes, yesterday was hard. I have many bruises from my son. But I think I learned something, and I hope my son did as well. Fighting the good fight is well worth the smiles and giggles that my adorable and charming little man can give me, if only I will give him what he needs.

Choleric vs. Sanguine
Learning to parent the right child, that's the real challenge, isn't it? I may have parented me daughter in one way in those early years. But my son; with all the same genes to chose from, is a totally different person. She is cheerful and imaginative while he is adventurous and outspoken. Sometimes they must be left alone to figure something out and sometimes they need me right beside them. I am just now learning that those instances will never look the same. I cannot use KayLynn techniques with Logan, or vice verse.
Focus on the Family had a great article on Determining your child's personality type. I learned that Logan is what they call Choleric: adventurous, determined, outspoken, competitive, strong-willed. And KayLynn is referred to as Sanguine: playful, sociable, talkative, lively, imaginative. Romans is such a good reminder for me, "Just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others." I love both of my children and they both have been given gifts from the Lord to use in His service. I get the honor of helping my children figure out what their gifts are and how to use them. My son will probably be a leader and a fighter for the truth. I know that my daughter will encourage people as she does me. What a blessing to be a part of the Lords work in such a hands on way. And, what a burden. I must be honest I am overwhelmed by this task. It is hard work. Sometimes its spiritual and emotional work. Other days, like today, it is a physical battle. I have the bruises to prove it. So I must gird my loins and prepare for this blessed work.
I need to learn how to meet my children where they are, not drag them to my ideas of the perfect children.
I covet prayers as I learn to parent my strong, independent son and my talkative, playful little girl. I will be praying everyday that I can show them to the Lord. I pray that my son will be a champion for the Truth and my daughter will show compassion to the world. I know that I am not able to do this, but Christ is. I will be praying for His strength and guidance each day so that my children will love and serve our God.

Hello,There are two possible ways of Free ModSecurity Rules from Comodo usage with cPanel:1. Activate the COMODO as a cPanel ModSecurity vendor as described below:https://help.comodo.com/topic-212-1-670-8350-deploying-comodo-ModSecurity-rule-set-in-cpanel.htmlIn this case, the rule-set is updated automatically to the latest version by cPanel on daily basis.2. Using the COMODO CWAF plug-in when the rule-set and plug-in version updates should be triggered on the cPanel manually. The currently installed versions can be checked on cPanel as well. The detailed update process and version check descriptions are available at the link below:https://help.comodo.com/topic-212-1-514-7944-.htmlImportant Note: cPanel ModSecurity Vendors are not compatible with CWAF plug-in. So, you can't use both in parallel for management of your protection rules. Also, don't activate both Comodo Rule Sets for Apache and LiteSpeed simultaneously to avoid conflicts.Should you have any further questions, do not hesitate to ask.
What's that got to do with my problem ?

Prepaid Cards, Online Casinos accepting Prepaid Cards
Prepaid cards are very similar to regular debit or credit cards. A Prepaid card is a convenient and secure alternative to cash and checks. It is a safe and quick method to pay for everything online, over the phone, or when you are travelling.
Prepaid cards don't take interest or penalty fees.Prepaid Cards Online Casino List
Prepaid Cards Benefits:
- no bank account needed,
- no application hassles,
- a variety of uses – from online shops and booking tickets to making withdrawals ,
- great for customers and merchants,
- enhanced security .
A prepaid debit card differs from a prepaid credit card in much the same way that a regular debit card differs from a regular credit card. A prepaid debit card subtracts funds from the amount of money which is already on your prepaid debit card account whereas a prepaid credit card credits you money to make purchases.
You can open a prepaid credit card account by depositing funds into that account. After the funds have been deposited, the account holder gets a physical credit card which can be used in the same way in which regular credit cards are used. A good thing is that the prepaid credit card doesn't allow you to spend much money thereby preventing you from getting into debt. The purchasing power of the prepaid credit card is limited to the sum of the security that is paid upfront to secure the card. Today you can use mobile applications to check your balance, pay bills, add checks, and send money to your prepaid cards.
You can use prepaid cards to play at online casinos. Many world known payment systems issue Prepaid cards including PayPal, NETELLER, Moneybookers, Ecocard.
The world's known payments technology companies such as Visa, MasterCard, American Express also issue prepaid cards. For example, Visa offers a variety of prepaid cards. Depending on the option chosen, a Visa prepaid card can be either disposable or re-loadable. The card can be used everywhere Visa debit is accepted.
MasterCard prepaid card is a great way to manage your money and purchase with ease and convenience. There are a lot of MasterCard prepaid cards available for different purposes. They can be used wherever MasterCard is accepted.
American Express also has a good number of prepaid cards. You don't need any credit check when you use a prepaid card. There is neither minimum balance, nor hidden fees. With AmEx prepaid cards you can pay your bills, buy groceries, shop online, withdraw cash for free at over 24,000 ATMs, send and receive money with Serve Accounts, and use virtually anywhere American Express Cards are accepted.

Rodney Streeter and Sydney Harrison claimed victory late Friday in two closely watched Prince George's County Council races that were too close to call after last week's primary.
In District 7, Streeter, chief of staff to council member Andrea Harrison (D), led Krystal Oriadha, a progressive activist, by 31 votes after officials finished tallying provisional and absentee ballots. In District 9, Sydney Harrison, the clerk of the county court, led activist and attorney Tamara Davis Brown by 55 votes.
Candidates can contest the results of the primary up to three days after results are certified by officials — which could happen Monday — said Prince George's County Board of Elections Deputy Administrator Daneen Banks. Neither Oriadha nor Brown responded to repeated requests for comment.
There were no Republicans on the ballot for any of the nine district council seats.
Harrison and Streeter will join four incumbents who are returning to their council seats, three candidates who will replace term-limited incumbents and two at-large members filling new positions.
Streeter, who began working for council member Harrison in 2008 and previously worked in D.C. government, said he was "so excited" by the election results and feels "poised to hit the ground running and move the county forward." He said he wants to see the government focus on basic services, such as trash pickup, in addition to creating opportunities for small businesses and improving retail options in the county.
Streeter, 59, lives in Hillcrest Heights. He and Oriadha were among the eight candidates vying to succeed term-limited Karen Toles (D), who unsuccessfully ran for an at-large seat.
Harrison, who was elected clerk in 2014, thanked "each of the great candidates who participated in the very competitive race" in District 9 in a statement on Facebook. Eight candidates competed to succeed Mel Franklin (D), who ran in the at-large race.
"It cannot be understated how thankful we are for the dedication and service each of the candidates have shown the great community of District 9," wrote Harrison, who planned to celebrate with volunteers at a sports bar in MGM National Harbor.
Harrison graduated from Prince George's County public schools and worked as a small-business owner and Realtor. He did not respond to requests for comment.
The four incumbents who ran for re-election retained their seats: Deni Taveras in District 2; council Chairwoman Dannielle M. Glaros in District 3; Vice Chairman Todd M. Turner in District 4; and Derrick Leon Davis in District 6.
Former council member Tom Dernoga will represent District 1, former state delegate Jolene Ivey will represent District 5, and real estate agent Monique Anderson-Walker will represent District 8.
Franklin and Calvin Hawkins, a longtime adviser to Democratic County Executive Rushern L. Baker III, were the leading vote-getters in the race for the at-large council seats. Republican Felicia Folarin also will be on the ballot for an at-large council seat in November, but in Prince George's, Democrats are overwhelmingly favored.

Armando Alvarez Compean, who lived in Gallup for more than 20 years, died June 1 in Descanso, Calif. He was 79.
Born in Mexico, he came to the United States at an early age and worked as a businessman for many years in Brownsville, TX before starting a career as a painter.
He came to Gallup to visit his brother, Alex Alvarez, who was a golf pro here, and decided to stay. While here he married his third wife, Gaye Brown, who worked as a writer and copy editor for the Gallup Independent.
A year after coming here, he secured a contract with the City of Gallup to build a sculpture to reflect the nature of the city and its people. The $100,000 contract resulted in the creation of the "We the People" sculpture that is now a park on Maloney Avenue.
He was also the creator of the sculpture that now rests in front of the Gallup Independent.
Over his life, he produced hundreds of paintings and more than a dozen major sculptures that now reside in museums and buildings all over the world.
According to his website, here are a few of the biggest:
"Wall of Honor," a $37,000 steel sculpture at the New Mexico State Police Academy.
"La Puerto del Sol," a $100,000 steel sculpture done in 1997 for the city of Tome, NM.
"The Miners," a $55,000 steel sculpture that was done in 1999 and now resides in Raton, N.M.
"Watering Place," a $73,000 steel sculpture done on 2000 for the New Mexico Farm and Ranch Museum in Las Cruces.
"Los Aros de Longmont" a $100,000 steel and Byzantine sculpture in Longmont, CA.
A steel and Byzantine glass mosaic for $30.000 that now resides in the entrance arch for the Los Angeles Zoo.
The family plans to hold a private memorial service sometime in the future.

Tropical Storm Florence Develops as a Tropical Wave Brings Deep Moisture to Florida for Labor Day – My Fox Hurricanes
The disturbance off the coast of Africa has organized into Tropical Storm Florence with 40 mph winds.
Florence will continue to track westward this weekend and turn more towards the northwest by the middle of next week. The system may gain some strength but cooler water and increased wind shear will limit its development. Florence will pull away from the Cabo Verde Islands later today and then head out into the Atlantic.
We are watching a tropical wave sitting over Haiti and the Dominican Republic. It will continue to track northwest, arriving in the Bay area on Labor Day.
The wave will move through an area of high wind shear as it heads to Tampa, so strengthening is unlikely over the next 2 days. Once the wave enters into the Gulf of Mexico conditions become more favorable for development. At that time the disturbance will be heading away from us.
The main impact from the tropical wave will be more widespread heavy rain for us. The area of red and purple highlights deep tropical moisture right over Tampa Bay on Labor Day. Rain chances jump to 70% for the Holiday.

Paula aka Amber
I have been dancing since I was a tot, learning Ballet, Modern, Tap, and National Folk dancing, dreaming like every dancer does about making it, I was one of the lucky ones, that had landed a dream job working as a professional abroad in La Scala (Barcelona, Gran Canaria) and touring with Barross Productions, but that was many moons ago now.
After meeting my husband, settling down and starting a family, with our 2 girls, I started to want an interest for myself, a friend had suggested that we could attend a Belly dance class, I had done a bit of wiggling with Belly dancers in Tunisia and Turkey after a few drinks, and thinking back to those party nights I was up for it.
When I attended my first lesson with Claire Manigrasso, she had made the dance fun and inspired me to take up this wonderful dance. I also started performing in her troupe the Cleo sisters.
I also starting Attending Jane Claridge's lessons, learning new steps, new styles, and pushing myself further, and realising Belly dance is actually quite difficult, Jane has kept me interested in Belly dance and that's quite an accomplishment as I do tire of things quite easily, I guess that's the sign of a Sagittarius. I have progressed a lot over the years, thanks to Jane's teaching.
I was invited to join Aziza of Cheltenham, who I have danced with now for 5 years and love performing with them. It's great to be involved with such a wonderful troupe, were a bunch of good friends and we have a lot of laughs.
Belly dance is so different to what I have done before, your always learning something new; I try to attend as many different workshops as I can, Maria d silva, Nikki Livermore, Melissa Abraham, Di cox, Lynne Chapman, Ozgen, Yvette Cowles and many more.
And the beauty of this dance is you can dance this style at any age, so I expect to keep shimmying for quite a while yet.

Being on the Grote Markt in Brugge, and in line with all the tourists who were having the same, we ordered a 1m Kwak. I have to admit the experience was a first for me. I knew the beer from before, but never saw it super-sized.
Kwak has a deep bright amber color, a fruity and malty aroma, a slightly spicy character with hints of caramelized bananas, and a pleasant bitterness to it. However, what I find fascinating about the Kwak, is the glass it comes with.
History places Paul Kwak as a brewer and bar owner in Dendermonde. A regular stop for mail coaches, coachmen were not allowed to leave the carriage and horses. Therefore not able to enjoy the Kwak beer. As a result, Paul Kwak invented a glass which could be easily hung on the coach and ordered the shape of the glass we know today. Problem solved.
Lamb Ragout with Kwak (serves 4)
1 leg of lamb (1 kg)
half a green cabbage
4 carrots
4 turnips
half a celeriac
1 onion
250gr mushrooms
1 bottle Kwak
butter, clove of garlic, tyme, bay, s&p
A golden rule - above all sweat the onion in the butter and add the vegetables in the following order: carrots, green cabbage, celeriac, turnips, potatoes. Allow to braise moistening with the Kwak beer.
Add the thyme, bay and sliced garlic. Cover and allow to cook for 20min at low heat.
In the meantime brown the meat in butter, seasoning it with s&p.
Add meat to vegetable mélange.
Put the pan in the oven at 200C (gas mark 6) and let it cook uncovered for 20min. if you like the meat well done, leave it in the oven a little longer. If rare, then take it out sooner.
Serve with a Kwak.

Tiny vases
Pansy pods
Acorn beads and oak leaves
Lots of vases...since I'm getting ready for spring shows.
Mugs---sold in pairs on etsy, since it costs the same to ship one mug as to ship two...silly.
Great big colander
Lots and lots of leaf candle/dip cups.
Soap dishes starting to come out, but I'm not sure yet about listing these as the shipping will probably more than double the price. To be dettermined.
Pencil pods-otherwise known as bud vases
Yarn bowls.
Lots and lots of pictures still to take. I'm still pretty new to photography so it takes me a really long time to photograph the pottery...although the photography session we did at the potters' guuild has helped tremendously.
Linking up with: Creative Friday At Natural Suburbia

Last Thursday 5th February a local Andalusian TV station, Antena 3 TV featured some serious allegations being made in connection with a Gibraltar Government run home for the disabled on their programme 'Espejo-Publico'. The programme was titled "Gibraltar House Of Horrors". Here's an excerpt from YouTube:
As you can imagine, the programme has caused some consternation in Gibraltar and shortly after it was broadcast, I had this email exchange with a close friend. Their comments are in quotes with my answers in normal type.
I don't know if you've heard about the content of the video, coincidentally I was watching Antenna 3 yesterday when it was aired.I was not aware of this programme... but thanks for bringing it to my attention!
I have long been aware of the serious allegations being made against the management of the Dr Giraldi home in Gibraltar... very serious allegations of abuse and of unprofessional conduct by staff there. These allegations have been around for quite a while now.
What I say is, that, whether the allegations are true or not (and I'm all for an investigation if there's a need for one) how dare Mr Bossano, la de Fernandez and the two other politicians air our 'dirty laundry' on a Spanish TV programme! What is it they want to achieve with this?It's a pity that these concerns have not been aired more emphatically in Gibraltar, by the GBC for instance... and most certainly, what is more concerning (and I'm glad you feel this is necessary too... ) is the lack of a independent investigation... maybe even a judicial review in Gibraltar.
The fact that Gibraltar authorities have not properly investigated these allegations... has simply given more credence to our 'neighbours' (and other maybe detractors) to do what they always love to do... highlight our problems... and find anything they can... to be critical about Gibraltar. The shame is... Gibraltar... through the apathy of the authorities to properly investigate these serious concerns... simply continue to give these Gibraltar detractors more ammunition.
What business is it of anybody other than ours here in Gibraltar. What is clear is that Bossano will stop at nothing even shooting Gibraltar in the foot for his own political aims.Well... I understand your criticism of Bossano... and whilst I would not disagree with your perceived motives... again, if the Gib Authorities had investigated these allegatons properly long ago... Bossano would not have any cause for criticism now... however ill advised or motivated they may be.
Did he not do enough damage to Gibraltar's image by condoning and encouraging the fast launch tobacco smuggling activities or the strikes at the dockyard in order to bring down Kvaerner to the detriment of the misguided workers and Gibraltar as a whole?Yes... he's not my favourite 'walrus' either... but of more concern is... what HAS been going on ... or worse... may still be going on at the Dr Giraldi home... and in other ways generally in relation to Disability issues in Gibraltar. These matters need to be addressed by the Government, the Health Authority... and even maybe by the Judiciary... as a matter of great urgency. That is more to the point I think!
Es que los que hace ese hombre me pone negra!!!!
If Gibraltar were to regulate, clean and manage itself properly... then no one could criticise Gibraltar... whether it is about disability issues... or any of the many other issues... that I have commented on before... indeed over which we have even fallen out about in the past.. issues such as pollution, human rights, ndescriminate and uncontrolled town planning, etc. Just to mention a few... I could go on!
Finally... our neighbours would do well, to take note of this well known Bible quote:
"You hypocrite! First remove the beam from your own eye, and then you will see clearly enough to remove the speck from your brother's eye."... and pigs may fly one day too! lol
Matthew 7:5
Let's just try and reduce the reasons for them to have a go at us. Anyhow... good to get that off your chest?? :) Hope you feel better for it.
In closing, one thing I would advise is for you to do what you can to encourage your Ministers... to clean their own house up... before others try to do it for them... the EU for instance... in pollution and human rights (we are being sued shortly on matters related to both these counts) and try and bring Gibraltar into the 21st century... no doubt kicking and screaming all the way!
Good luck! :)

"Soul Searching"
This painting was done mostly from memory. Added the lone woman on the beach to suggest times of reflection and questioning. I actually saw a heart shaped cloud in the sky recently, so I added it to suggest the cool ways that Father God sends reminders of his love for us, especially when we are struggling. Most of the time we miss it. He sends so many people and remarkable things our way, so if we do ask, or search, we can find him.

(a) TiSon GUI window. In the Custom Scan table the user sets up the desired wavelengths, number of pulses at each wavelength and pulse energies in % of maximum. In this example three wavelengths were set with 1 pulse at each wavelength.
(b) Measured laser output spectrum. Integration time of the spectrometer was set to 20 ms. Each spectrometer frame included 20 laser pulses. All 3 wavelengths were detected simultaneously.
(c) Measured laser pulse train. Pulse amplitude was different at 720, 800 and 880 nm due to wavelength dependence of detector response and laser pulse energy setting.

The Puritan writer Richard Baxter asked some pointed questions that must be repeated today. When we run across ones who want to argue as to whether God is just or right in the way He has prepared for salvation, when someone reads in the Word that this is so and that is so, do we think ourselves fit to contradict His word?
Are we going to call our Maker to the bar of justice to examine His word against falsehood or accusation? Will we set upon Him and judge Him by the law of our conceits and beliefs, against His ways? Are we wiser, and better and more righteous than He?
Must the God of heaven come to us to learn wisdom? Must infinite wisdom learn of, or from folly? Is infinite Holiness going to be corrected by a selfish sinner that cannot keep himself clean for even an hour?
Must the Almighty stand at the judgment bar of a worm? O! Horrid arrogance of senseless dust! It is like every mole, or clod, or dunghill accuse the sun of darkness, and undertake to illuminate the world? Where were we when the Almighty made the laws, did He not call upon us for His counsel? Surely He made them before you were born, without desiring your advice! And we come into the world seeking to reverse His law?!
If we could have done a greater work we should have stepped out of our nothingness and contradicted Christ when He was on earth, or Moses before Him, or have saved Adam and his sinful progeny from the threatened death so that there would not be a need for a Christ!
What if God withdraw His patience and sustainance, and let us drop into hell while we are quarrelling with His word? Will we then believe that there is no hell? There are many who live in out right rebellion against the path God has given for righteousness, salvation and eternal life. Though people try to put this out of their mind, they cannot put it out of the Bible. The Holy Ghost sealed the gospel; the apostles were the secretaries of the Spirit who wrote it; the preachers of the gospel proclaim it and persuade men to obey it; and the Holy Ghost makes the word effectual by opening the hearts of men to hear and either accept or deny it.
Most people love their present state, their carnal self and pleasing the flesh rather than seeking to please the LORD. We naturally love our present state, and are loathe to be brought out of it. Most people we meet love the earth greater than loving heaven, fleshly prosperity more than God. They just want to do enough to escape hell fire that a desire to love, please and honor God. These are wicked and unconverted people.
They may attend church, even teach Sunday school or a youth group and pray or testify in services; but if they love the present world more than heaven they are unconverted as far as God is concerned. The principle business in their life is to prosper in the world to attain their fleshly ends. Though they may read and hear and do much for religion and hate disgraceful sins, yet they never make it their principal business in life to please God.
While here on earth Christ said of such that harlots and publicans (tax collectors) would get to heaven before the religious people would. Whores and publican would accept true repentance because it was easier to make these gross sinners perceive their sin and misery and the necessity of a change, than to convince the more refined religious ones who thought they were converted already;when they were not.
A converted person is one who makes it the principal care and business of life to please God. The blessings of this life are but accommodations toward another life; they are totally subordinate to God. They love a holy life and hate sin of any kind. The drift and bent of their life is toward God. They are wholly taken up with redemption and believing that the LORD Jesus Christ is their only Saviour; HE is the life of their soul and they live by Him; being dead to self and alive to Him.
A true convert knows that the only hope and refuge they have is in Christ; He is their daily bread. They cannot pray without Him, rejoice without Him, nor think or speak or live without Him. These are heavenly minded, not earthly. As a child I have heard said of some that they are too heavenly minded to be of any earthly good, I would counter that most are to earthly minded to be of any heavenly good.
True conversion is those who were once addicted to self and lived for self are now devoted totally to God and live for God. Before they would please God so far as might stand with pleasure to their fleshly, as long as it was not too uncomfortable, but not do anything that was of any displeasure or discomfort. True conversion means a great change has taken place. Now God is all in all. God has declared that He is all in all; If we do not believe the God of truth, we are totally inexcusable.
To quote Richard Baxter ~
" Can one make so light of heaven and hell? Our corpse will shortly lie in the dust, and angels or devils will presently seize upon our souls, and every man and woman of you will shortly be among other company, and in another case than now we are;
You will dwell in those houses but a little longer, you will work in your shops but a little longer; you will sit in these seats, and dwell on this earth but a little longer;
you will see with those eyes, and hear with those ears, and speak with those tongues, but a little longer;
til the resurrection day; and can you make yourself forget this? O what a place will you be shortly in of joy or torment! O what a sight will you shortly see in heaven or hell! O what thoughts will shortly fill your hearts with unspeakable delight or horror!
What work will you be employed in;
to praise the LORD with saints and angels,
or to cry out in fire unquenchable with devils!
And should all this be forgotten?
All this will be endless, and sealed up by an unchangeable decree;
ETERNITY, ETERNITY will be the measure of your joys or sorrows.
Can you forget this? "
" When you have gone up and down a little longer, and slept and awakened a few times more,
you will be dead and gone, and find all that is true what I now tell you.
And yet can you now forget it?
You shall then remember that you heard this sermon, and that this day, from this place, you were reminded of these things;
and perceive them matters a thousand times greater than either you or I could have conceived; and yet, now, shall you so much as forget them? "
* There is no democracy in God's Kingdom. We are either saved or lost, redeemed or perishing. God has appointed His way of teaching us; by Scripture and ministers. The word of God delivered in Scripture and sealed by miracles and the holy workings of the Holy Ghost will never deceive us. Believe this or believe nothing! Believe and obey this or we are undone.
Are we truly converted?
How many pulpits in America preached this way yesterday, Sunday, October 26, 2009?

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah (ABC 4 Utah) – They're one of the most loved animals at the zoo. Today staff, visitors, and animals said goodbye to the beloved and larger-than-life Dari.
"there's one that passed away!" said 4-year-old Alexis Ackley.
"How did that make you feel?" I asked.
"sad." she replied.
The 55-year-old African Elephant passed away after battling with numerous issues relating to her health, and no one had a harder time saying good bye than the people who cared for her day-in and day-out.
"We're a family here, a little community here, it's just, it's a sad day and we'll miss her for a very long time," said Community Relation Coordinator Erica Hansen.
As months went on staff became more concerned with her weakening strength. She had several episodes of falling including one Saturday morning, leading experts to be concerned with her comfort and mobility.
Dr. Nancy Carpenter, Associate Director of Animal Health at Hogle Zoo says they've had to raise her up with a crane after falling and "she wasn't bouncing back from those episodes, and we were concerned that that was not the right approach to take with her today, so we chose to humanely euthanize her."
For close to 50 years, Dari greeted millions of visitors with her graceful presence and sass attitude. She surpassed the life expectancy of elephants in the wild by thirteen years becoming the longest-lived African Elephant in North America, a testament to the excellent care and attention she received.
"We have many animals that exceed the longevity expectation for those species, we feel like it's due to the excellent care we give to the animals here at the zoo," said Dr. Carpenter.
Those who cared for her will remember a loving elephant. Who sought affection for no reason, but was careful to get near anyone until you earned her trust.
Dr. Nancy who cared for Dari for 15 years finds the loss especially hard, "she had such a personality and was such a great elephant."
An elephant that touched the lives of many, both young and old.
"Will you miss the elephant," asked Alexis Ackley's mother Samantha.
"Yea," she cried as she wiped tears from her eyes.
Hogle Zoo staff say elephants are expected to go extinct in the next 30-years. They ask the community to log onto 96elephants.org and help save the species in memory of Dari.

Is It a Virus?
I know I haven't posted in a few days. It's not that I have given up. Not even the cramps kept me down long! I thought I had a bit of a cold or most probably allergies. On Friday I didn't feel good and looking back I thought it was something I ate. I slept in on Saturday and when I finally got up I had to really push myself to do anything. At one point on Saturday I had the chills, nausea, and nearly passed out in our bathroom. The really bad feeling did pass and I passed it off as an anomaly. Well, I still feel bad from allergies and it seems Hubby found out at work today that one of his coworkers had the same symptoms as I had. They went to the clinic and was told it's a virus that's going around. There is nothing to take for a virus so I guess I will just be careful and wash my hands even more than I do now. I work with the public and think I'm immune to it all. I guess I need time to become immune to the new germs. I just wish the public would stop putting their documents in their mouths before handing them over to us!

Something I've noticed more and more with training/treating is some seriously poor jaw positioning in clients. Whether it's just resting posture or the middle of a big lift, people go thru some weird jaw movements: flaring it wide open, biting down hard and grinding, protracting the jaw forward, or just being slack-jawed. Besides weirding people out, it indicates that we are lacking a strategy for maintaining a stable, centered jaw position over the upper cervical spine which is critical for movement integrity, neural output, and resolving neck or jaw pain including headaches. Essentially, the system is looking for stability and finding it in dysfunctional positions.
We know that head position can actually influence pelvic tilt such that a forward head or looking up during a lift promotes an anterior pelvic tilt and an overextended lumbar spine - which is why we should NOT cue athletes to "look up" during squats or deadlifts. I previously wrote that mouth breathing can destabilize the cervical spine and certainly it affects jaw position. Developmentally, motor control is learned from proximal to distal and from head to toe (i.e., we learn to move the jaw before the lips and tongue; control the head before the arms). The ability to keep the head in midline is a prime example of developmental progress. So by accessing a developmental or primitive pattern and setting the jaw (including the tongue) into a stable position, we can better access the nervous system and promote adaptation and improve output.
So what is the stable position of the jaw?
The mandible attaches to the temporal bone like a boat to a dock - it's floating around in there rather than anchored like the hip, for example. What this means is it's a joint that requires loads of stability and motor control for optimal function.
Ultimately, the jaw is not optimally stabilized if we do not have full cervical range in all planes while maintaining the lips sealed, jaw slightly open, and the tongue at the roof of the mouth. Having that tongue position really optimizes and integrates the whole system.
Check out the video below for a few ideas on improving upper cervical spine mobility and jaw positioning. These are also clutch for tension-type headaches.
Not having the basics of jaw positioning (including the tongue) just won't cut it and will lead to alterations in the nervous system, spinal control, and power generation.

SethOberst.com at One Year
The first post here at SethOberst.com went up on July 10, 2013 to zero fanfare (including from me). Fortunately, this site has grown tremendously in the year since so I wanted to reflect on where it stands and where it's going.
Since the first post, First Post + Primer for Looking at Athletic Movements we have:
Here are the Top 5 most-viewed posts from this year:
In this next year plan on a continued focus on improving adaptability and efficiency, often by tapping in to the neuromuscular system. The goal is to bridge disparate fields and think about movement and performance the way it should be - as a system of systems. Anything looked upon in total isolation without regard for the system is unlikely to have meaningful nor lasting benefit. Even the highest-level movement and performance systems should be scalable to everyday life because that's where it really matters, even for the best athletes.
Better information yields more informed decisions because gone are the days where it is okay to be a passive observer in your own life.
Thanks to all the readers of, and contributors to, SethOberst.com over the course of this first year, certainly never thought that more than like 3 people would be interested in what I had to say!
- Seth
Look forward to more guest writers and maybe even an e-book this year. And keep up the feedback: the more feedback, comments, or insults I get the better this site becomes. Show me a better way and I'm all in.

Categories: australian politics, im/migration, International, john key, Minister for International Embarrassment, Politics – Tags: boat people, john key, migrants, tony abbott
It only seems like yesterday that John Key was forced to admit a series of assaults on a young cafe worker. It is now possible that Key has broken the law again. It is a significant offence to conspire to smuggle migrants into New Zealand or another country. The penalty is imprisonment for a term not exceeding 20 years, a fine not exceeding $500,000, or both. Is this what the Prime Minister and/or NZ Government officials have done?
What we know so far is that Australia has just turned away a boat full of asylum seekers from various Asian countries and it is alleged that the ship's crew were paid US $5000 each to take the victims instead to Indonesia. Aussie PM Tony Abbott is refusing to confirm the payments, but is looking painfully weak on the matter. If it's confirmed that the money changed hands, this breaches domestic Australian law and international treaties about people smuggling. Normally this would just be an embarrassment for the increasingly beleaguered Liberal leader, but John Key has unintentionally caught himself up in the scandal.
Key has mugged himself by big noting about the slim possibility that the boat in question might have made it to NZ. The PM has been talking for a fortnight about that boat, the 'danger' it presented to NZ's borders and the cooperation of our Government officials with Australia to make sure it did not reach either country. To put it simply, if Key was made aware that the Australian Government intended to or actually made payment to the crew of the boat to convince them to smuggle the asylum seekers into Indonesia instead, then that may be a crime here in New Zealand.
The Crimes Act does not require that would be migrants actually set foot in New Zealand. Even the attempt is a crime. But, importantly, the Act also criminalises smuggling people into other countries, which is what appears to be the case here. Indonesia is justifiably upset at being used as a dumping ground.
Professor of International Law at the Australian National University Don Rothwell has said that under regional protocols such activity could be equate to people smuggling.
"People smuggling is defined with the protocol and to that end the provision of monies to people who are engaged in people smuggling activities to take persons from a place on the high seas to another place, such as Indonesia, is clearly a people smuggling-type activity," he said.
"If a state such as Australia is making that payment that would be seen as tantamount to people smuggling."
If you and I conspired to smuggle a boatload of people into Indonesia, we'd probably be in the dock pretty bloody pronto. However, there is an out. Prosecution of people smugglers in NZ can only proceed with the agreement of the Attorney General, Chris Finlayson. A man appointed to that position by, um, Prime Minister John Key.
So, maybe it's unlikely that Key is going to face justice over this matter, but it does make it more understandable that he was reduced to meaningless gibberish when interviewed on the matter this morning. Key is scared. And with good reason. Bizarrely, he reckons he can see the reason for paying off the snakeheads. But … "If you start paying them yourselves you're in a position that you're paying people we don't have a high regard for".
But, no worries, people! According to the PM, the whole thing is a "hypothetical" .
This matter needs to be investigated thoroughly. Payment to criminals is not just possibly illegal, it's a particularly stupid idea because it's an encouragement to further smuggling attempts. We don't know what Key has done or whether it really equates to criminal behaviour, but we should be told.
In Australia, Labor and the Greens have called for an immediate enquiry. Our equivalent parties here should do the same.
Key should be asked to explain himself – what he knew, when he knew it and what he agreed to – in the media and in Parliament. People smuggling is a vicious, exploitative crime. Paying off snakeheads to commit their crimes in other countries is equally vile.
