They can be fantastic and will quickly turn out to be a labor of love as you slowly build your ideal helicopter.These are just a couple of of the different types of distant control boats accessible for purchase.

These days are more than and these small helicopters have taken the command over the sky. It is the very best gift for anybody. Now the query is, why is RC helicopter the very best gift amongst the wide variety of RC toys? Well, carry on studying to uncover the answer.Thieves gangs generally act with a van or a pick-up and in much more than one individual, so what can you do to prevent them from lifting your bicycle on to a van? Keep in mind that they will not always want to ultimately trip your bike: they might just be following the components, so in this situation a GPS locator will only deliver you to the garbage bin containing the costly GPS tracker.People with passion are always attracted by traveling devices. When it arrives to the RC helicopter, everyone likes it. There was a time when children were busy flying kites or balloons filled with gasoline. Those days are over and these tiny helicopters have taken the command over the sky. It is the very best gift for anybody. Now the question is, why is RC helicopter the best present amongst the wide selection of RC toys? Well, carry on reading to uncover the solution.Now that you have mastered traveling a aircraft with the prior designs, maybe you can dabble into twists, turns and aerial pirouettes. With aerobatic planes, these can be carried out easily. They are much more steady, seeing as they are utilized for aerial dancing, but they do not self-recuperate as easily as the prior planes mentioned. These aerobatic planes are also sleeker in shape and are very simple to maneuver.Most beginners that get into rc boats australia choose for powerboats. They also make up the largest portion of the RC boat interest. These boats are usually divided into two classes - racing boats and activity boats. Activity boats are usually not all about pace, so they can function in smaller areas of water this kind of as a swimming pool.

It might be a good idea to buy an additional pack in purchase to prolong your flight time, and even a car adapter so you can be recharging one pack while utilizing the other. If there is a option on batteries, pick the Lithium types, they have a longer lifespan, charge quicker, and hold a cost longer than other battery packs.Aviation has usually been a question to many individuals. It's about imaging yourself amongst the clouds and traveling that creates a picture of freedom.

It is generally very tough o discover the electric energy outlets near a big body of water.There are numerous hobbies about the globe but none much more enjoyable than the radio controlled hobbies that numerous individuals seem to appreciate. What could be more exciting than using a fully efficient miniature car edition of a real car and driving or flying it? All it requires is a basic familiarity for motors and the radio equipment for you to join in.

The Apple Ghost

THE APPLE GHOSTPoems by John Glenday_________________________________________________________________________________John Glenday was born in 1952 in Monifieth, Scotland. At different times he has been a student of English, a van driver, a printer's devil and a compositor, but he now works as a psychiatric nurse in Dundee. Married with two sons, he co-edits the Blind Serpent Press with his wife, Penny.The Apple Ghost, John Glenday's first volume of poetry, reveals a preoccupation with communication and its ultimate failure in poems which explore the relationship between family and strangers, words and shadows, silence and light. His themes range from dreamlike retrospectives to a gentle, apocalyptic allegory of social and literary decline. The final, haunting sequence (From An Occupied Country) traces the collapse of an unnamed civilization – its petty tragedies and inevitable drift towards extinction.

PostLanzarotto Malocello and the Island of Lanzarote (Eugenio Battaglia, Italy, 07/10/18 10:17 am)
On 30 May, Carmen Negrín posted a very good essay about the marvelous Canary Islands, which I have visited and love very much--almost as much as my beloved Mount Prospect, Illinois.
Carmen mentioned a 1776 book by Joseph de Viera Clavejo, Noticias de la historia general de las Islas Canarias.
Reading this book I was dismayed that chapter XIX, on the island of Lanzarote, presents the name of the "modern" (1312) discoverer in a rather fuzzy way.
For an Italian seafarer with a passion for the voyages of exploration, this is a serious blow, and I feel obliged to correct the error.
The European navigator who first arrived in 1312 at the island of Lanzarote was Lanzarotto Malocello.
The Malocellos were a rich family from Genoa with many proprieties in Liguria since at least the 1100s. This family provided eleven consuls to Genoa and various important individuals even related to Popes. Carbone Malocello in 1235 attacked the Sultan of Ceuta to make him pay for depredations against the Genoese merchants residing there. The first Doge of Genoa, Simon Boccanegra, died in 1363 in the "palazzo" of the Malocellos, probably poisoned by the feuding Adorno and Fregoso families. See also the opera by Giuseppe Verdi.
Lanzarotto, born at Varazze near Savona in 1270, sailed toward the South Atlantic in search of the brothers Ugolino and Vadino Vivaldi, who were planning to reach the Indies well ahead of Henry the Navigator of Portugal. Lanzarotto did not find the Vivaldis, but in 1312 he reached Lanzarote and remained there for 20 years until he was sent away by the Guanci.
Jean de Bethencourt arrived in 1402 and found the ruins of the fortification erected by Lanzarotto on the hill of Guanapay. Later the surrounding waters became very congested shipping lanes.
The first chart/portolano of Angelino Dulcert appeared in 1339, on which Lanzarote is clearly indicated as "insula de Lanzarotus Maloncelus."
In 2012 Spain and Italy organized great conferences and studies on the 700th anniversary of the discovery.
It is reported that one branch of the Malocello family at the end of the 14th century moved to France to offer its services as shipping captains. They later became the De Maloisel. Probably it is from this fact that in 1659 a French family claimed to be the discoverers of Lanzarote, their ancestor being called Lancelot Maloisel.
On other topics in response to Noah Rich and Istvan Simon:
!) For a long time I have been strongly against the death penalty, especially for political reasons, but now I am so sick and tired of our lousy society that a death penalty for some particularly despicable crimes does not seem so bad. But certainly a death penalty imposed 20 years after the crime is ridiculous.
2) Of course an average American does not like Putin and will probably believe all the possible evil about him. He would prefer the drunkard Boris Yeltsin, as with the latter a broken Russia was about to become the final colony of the Empire.
But an enlightened authoritarian leader is preferable to a lackey of foreigners.
Finally, please, do not speak too badly of Stalin, after all he was the good Old Uncle Joe for FDR and his followers.
JE comments: Most on-line sources give the first name of Lancelotto, but I am indebted to Eugenio Battaglia for another "pre-Columbian" history lesson. We Latin Americanists tend to look no further back than 1492.
All this begs the question: where would the Spanish be without the contributions of their Genoese/Savonese sailors?
To shift gears, Eugenio has once again expressed his fondness for enlightened authoritarians. Perhaps I could too, but I cannot think of any. Perhaps--just perhaps--Abraham Lincoln? Russia had some aggressive modernizers, from Peter the Great to Stalin, but I wouldn't call them enlightened.

My name is Jessica. I reside in sunny Scottsdale, Arizona. I just turned thirty-TWO, and frankly, I couldn't be happier about it. I always get asked what I am the MOST passionate about in this life. And when it comes right down to it, I can say that I am passionate about PEOPLE. Getting coffee with a friend or even a stranger has to be one of my most favorite things to do. Every single person has an interesting story to tell, which simply fascinates me. My husband is Jason Williams. I practically won the lottery the day I married him, ELEVEN years ago. He is my amazing partner in this life and makes life unexplainably more enjoyable. We do everything together, including working as photographers together. Sometimes marriage is hard, sometimes it's easy. But life without Jason in it is no life I want.
I am a mother to two amazing little boys and a stunning little girl, who I am wildly crazy about. Cruz, Rider and Bravery are the coolest kids around. Being a mom is one of the best, hardest, most challenging, inspiring things I've ever done. It teaches me new things every single day. And while there are things about motherhood that I wish someone would have told me before I became a mom, I wouldn't change any of it for anything. Except for the ability to wash my hair more. For reals.
I'm a photographer with Session Nine Photographers. My husband and I started our full time business six years ago and haven't looked back. We shoot almost thirty weddings a year, over one hundred Lifestyle Sessions a year and a handful of other projects we are involved in as well. We manage to fill our days with lots and lots of people, their lives, and their stories. We are asked to travel on occasion and often tell others that we have the best clients ever. To say that we love what we do would just be a huge understatement.
I am inspired by a lot of different things. People inspire me daily. Especially people I've never met or talked to. Words inspire me deeply, therefore I try to choose my own words carefully. Although, my own mouth has been known to get me into trouble a time or two. I'm inspired by the ability that we have as humans to dream, create and build our own destiny. Nothing gets me fired up more than helping convince someone that they CAN reach their potential dream and make it a reality. The sky is the limit on what inspires me, really.
I can get lost in the amazingly stunning details of any wedding day. It's my greatest pleasure to hear one of my brides talking all about her details that she's planning for her wedding day, and then to walk into her wedding venue and to be able to photograph it all for her. I love pretty things, big and small, of all different styles. I'm obsessed with how a wedding day is truly an expression of each individual bride and groom. I view each wedding we photograph or attend as art, taking in all the small nuances that the bride so carefully chose to represent her day and to start the beginning of her journey in marriage. I will be posting wedding details that inspire me, that I think are original, and that I think are beautiful. But I won't be posting any DIY's because I'm not crafty in the least, and will leave that to the professionals.
I'm not a good cook. But I am getting better at it. Being a gourmet chef has always 'not so secretly' been one thing I've dreamed of doing. I wish I had the ability to throw together dishes that impressed the masses. These days, if I'm lucky enough to impress my husband with any given meal I'm trying to concoct, I'm a happy camper. Nevertheless, I WILL be posting my favorite recipes from time to time. You know, the true successes.
After all is said and done, it's my goal with this blog to lift your spirits a little, and for you to leave a little happier than when you came. Because everyone knows that we could all use a little more happy in our days. I'm just a girl who's inspired by life and who seeks any opportunity possible to spark a little inspiration into others.
So I hope you find just that.

If you can buy a nice house for less than you'd otherwise pay in rent, then go ahead and buyIt seems to me rather narrow to view a house as simply a p[place to live in the narrowest sense. Ownership offers the ability to create one's own environment -- paint it any color you like, put in different carpet, finish the basement, redo the yard etc etc. You'd be mad (if the landlord would even give permission) to do that in a rental. Plus you have security of tenure and no one except the bank or tax man can ask you to leave. You also get a forced savings plan. Sure, houses are not an investment like a share of Intel (that's a joke) but an awful lot of people VALUE the non-monetary benefits. I would take the broad view of the benefits of ownership.

CHATTANOOGA, TENN. (October 3, 2017) — Criminal Justice will now be offered as an online degree program by Bryan College. Applications for the program are now being accepted for the Spring 2018 semester.
The online bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice provides students with the understanding of how the criminal justice system operates within various types of cases and scenarios. Students will also receive the opportunity to learn constitutional, procedural, and organizational differentiations between the federal, state and local criminal justice systems. Along with this information, they'll be able to interact with professionals who work within the criminal justice system on a daily basis.
Bryan College is committed to providing accessible education to those enrolling in their programs. While the program has been on campus for several years, this is the first time for the online offering.
"We are excited to introduce this program at Bryan College. It's been a few years in the making, but we are thrilled to see this program come to fruition. With several courses rooted in constitutional law and public policy, the foundation for this program builds upon the legislative framework of our country and how that knowledge is carried out to enforce the law. This degree is a great preparation for anyone interested in a profession related to our government's legal systems," said Dr. Adina Scruggs, Dean of Adult and Graduate Studies.
Adjunct Professor David Taylor who will be teaching in the program notes, "Today's criminal justice professional utilizes the tools of technology, knowledge of the law and the workings of the legal system in which they work on a daily basis. Our program will provide core competencies that will prepare our students to enter the field confidently as well-prepared professionals seeking to make a difference within the field of criminal justice. As Christians, we can temper the law of the land with the law of Christ by providing mercy, grace and accountability. It's another great example of the 'Bryan Difference'."
About Bryan College
William Jennings Bryan University was chartered in 1930 and admitted its first class in the fall of that year. Its stated purpose was, and is, to provide "for the higher education of men and women under auspices distinctly Christian and spiritual." In 1958 its name was changed to William Jennings Bryan College and in 1993 was shortened to Bryan College.
The College seeks to assist in the personal growth and development of qualified students by providing an education based upon an integrated understanding of the Bible and the liberal arts. The college charter states that no sectarian tests or statement of belief are to be imposed on any student.
It also specifies that anyone serving as a trustee, officer, or member of the faculty and staff must subscribe to the Statement of Belief, which appears below. The College's religious position and control, educational philosophy, and community life standards are consequential outcomes of the Statement of Belief.

text: Midnight Special: Jeff Nichols' film tells a story that, for better of worse, moves in very unexpected ways; it starts looking like one sort of story and changes abruptly, more than once. The journey is interesting, but it's the characters, and the way they are played by the cast, that makes this emotionally engaging. The acting is low-key, subdued, which lends the whole a realism that is quite welcome; Michael Shannon is the stand-out, intense and touching. The film has a simple, no-nonsense but beautiful look of its backwater locations; David Wingo's music is a good fit.

This year is going to be really huge for me. I had a book release in March, another coming out next month, and another pair of projects for later in the year.
My boss told me the other day that he's impressed that I'm so prolific. I explained to him that I'd written the majority of Drowned History a few years ago and only polished it at the end of last year for release in March. Only a Rogue Knows was written as part of the Every Rogue's Heart box set, it only needed a bit of expansion and another edit or two. The two I'm working on at the moment are ones I've written (or in one case am still writing, the other is almost in edits), so technically I'm only writing two this year, possibly three so I have one for next spring.
I had hoped to release a historical and a contemporary each year, but it seems that this year I'll be completely focused on historicals. I have a contemporary written that only needs to go for edits, so I suppose I could release that in the spring, and I'm hoping to start my vampire series next year too. I've got some Western romances I want to work on too, so I'll probably do some of that too.
Amusingly enough, I got an amazing idea a few weeks ago for a contemporary about a bodyguard and the son of a mob boss and I've spent the last week or so outlining it for later. I'm thinking about doing it for my Camp NaNoWriMo project in July, or possibly November. If it turns out halfway decent, off to editing it goes. I've also been thinking about rewriting At Her Pleasure, the pirate novella I wrote last year, as a full length novel. There's so much I could still write about Bronwyn and Gregory!
This is one of my favorite Ra Ra Riot songs, and one I like to listen to when I want to get pumped up for what's ahead. Because to quote the song, I am absolutely crushing everything.

But here I am trying to show you one of the many new items I got a couple weekends ago on an op shop extravaganza Jacob and I went on. You can see I had to resort to a shoot in the mirror. But you get the idea!

The use of cement in Richard Ducker's most recent sculptures emphasises a kind
of death, or a modernist monumentality, but the objects it coats and with which it is
juxtaposed evoke nostalgia, myths soaked in dreams, and fairy tales gone wrong. If
a domestic interior is evoked, it is one in which homely things have sprouted
aggressive appendages, grown unexpected textures, or multiplied into viral
aggregates, as if to embody the nightmares that commodity fetishes might dream of
if they fell asleep. Like Proust's madeleine dipped in tea, they evoke memories and
sensations according to a logic that combines cultural association with
phenomenological fantasies of sensual experiences, often clashing within the same
piece. In
Death Star (and Baby)
, for example, the familiar shape of plastic bottles is
made strange by a coating of intensely black flock, at once attractive and repellent
in its soot-like impurity, contrasting the smooth sensation of drinking 'spring water',
with the gagging artificiality of spray-flock; we are reminded with a jolt how toxic our
obsession with purity and cleanliness really is. Lots of fluids seem to run through the
work: sucked in by a fur-lined, mouth-like creature with the energy of a crack addict;
apparently running between a suitcase – travel, escape and refreshing holidays –
and a concrete block that seems to be feeding off (or to?) a tree that might have
been killed or perhaps re-energised by artistic usage... Sculptural processes have
become the magic instruments of a post-Freudian fairy-tale, in which life and death,
pleasure and pain, nourishment and poison have become entangled in an exchange
that could lead to deadly battle, intense pleasure, or remain a secret.
Emotionally evocative without ever telling a clear story, affecting without being
obvious, Ducker's sculptures seem to be there with the mute theatricality of
minimalism, yet to engage with notions of transformation. With simple formal
means, they excavate fears, anxieties and desires associated with the most
visceral of physical sensations – attraction and repulsion, pleasure and pain, need
and self-sufficiency. The work keeps referring back to the body, a missing body we
as viewers cannot help but imagine filling-in for with our own, transforming it into the
ill-fitting piece of a jigsaw we are trying in vain to complete with our presence.

Ceilings & Wood Paneling
I think it's safe to say that most of us love wood beams on a ceiling, but lately I've also been drawn to wood paneling. Not only does it bring your eye upward (making the room seem larger), but it also seems to bring more light into a room....especially in rooms with wall-to-wall carpet. Not to mention- I'm sure it's less maintenance.

Award nomination a first for local CFR volunteers
October 3, 2016
The Crossmaglen District and Community First Responders (CFR) have become the first group from Northern Ireland ever to be nominated in a prestigious UK awards competition, which celebrates organisations, employers and individuals who invest in creating "Heart Safe" environments. Representatives from the local First Responders team will travel to Manchester for the glittering awards ceremony this Friday 7th October.
A Heart Safe environment is one where life-saving equipment, a defibrillator and training are provided for staff or customers so that, should a sudden cardiac arrest occur, people are fully prepared to perform resuscitation and life support immediately. The Heart Safe Awards has received over 500 nominations for organisations of all types and sizes across the UK, with over 60 businesses and individuals recognised in 13 different categories.
The commitment and dedication of the Crossmaglen First Responders, ordinary men and women who are trained to respond to urgent medical situations to provide treatment to casualties while awaiting the arrival of appropriate emergency services, has been heralded as inspirational since the group first launched in November last year. In rural and isolated areas such as Crossmaglen and the surrounding district, the existence of such an initiative can mean the difference between life and death while a casualty awaits emergency medical help and, given the often inadequate ambulance response times throughout the area, the scheme has received resounding support from the local community and political representatives.
Speaking to The Examiner about the team's nomination for Community Responder Scheme of the year in the upcoming awards, Crossmaglen First Responders Co-ordinator, Damien Martin said,
"We look forward to hopefully bringing back a little bit of recognition for the people of the area and to show the rest of the UK that there is more to Crossmaglen and its community than what has been generated in the media over the last 30 years.
"It is an honour to represent Northern Ireland in the prestigious awards on the night, and even more of an honour to have Newry, Mourne and Down District council represented by having the Chairperson in attendance.
"We would like to sincerely thank each volunteer First responder in for their dedication to the community over the last 12 months, without each of them we would not be able to provide the service to our area and to every member of the community who has donated in any small way to ensure that we are able to continue to do what we do to ensure the community of the area get that little bit of extra help whilst awaiting paramedic assistance."
Council Chairperson, Gillian Fitzpatrick, said she is delighted that the Crossmaglen First Responders have been nominated for their work.
"The hard work and dedication of the First Responders, men and women who give up their time to help those in their community when they are most in need, is outstanding," she told The Examiner.
"So many have benefited from the Crossmaglen First Responders since it first came into being. The first public defibrillator was indeed dedicated to my much loved and admired grandmother, Crossmaglen lady, Molly Fitzpatrick (nee Clarke), so I am just delighted their work is recognised in this way.
"The people of Crossmaglen and surrounding areas are the winners as this service was a much needed one locally and to have it operate as effectively as it does is testament to the fantastic team of volunteers involved. I wish them every success at the awards ceremony."

Oh So Easy Halloween Hybrid Craft
Hi everyone! Jackie (tettletop20) here with some hybrid inspiration for you.
Friends of ours have a Halloween party each October and we all make special treats to ewwh and ahhh over. I found what I was going to make through a blog I came across a few weeks ago and I just knew I had to make some fun little tags to note what each treat was for the party guests.
I started off with my supplies - tags created with my photo edited software using Jennifer's kit Spooktacular (coming out tomorrow!!), toothpicks, scissors, punch, and adhesive:
I cut out the circles along with some plain circles for the back side and also cut out the square pieces. To make the circle tags, I added some adhesive to the back of one of the circles, placed the toothpick in the center, and then added the second circle to the back. For the squares, I marked the halfway point and then scored it and folded.
Here's how they looked when I added them to the tray and goodies I took to the party!
See how easy they were to make? Now you go try some! Happy crafting!

The same teacher writes:
« "Idealist" or "absolutist" politics are driven by commitment to a pre-defined End (Dictatorship of the Proletariat, Free-Market Capitalism, Christian America, ... etc.) »
None of these goals are assumed out of the blue — "pre-defined" — by their adherents. Marx sought the dictatorship of the proletariat based on ethical and economic ideas, Christians have a mass of theological thought behind them, free-market advocates have the thinking and observations of Bastiat, Adams, Mises and other political economists to support them, etc. (*)
"Pre-definition" is not the issue. What was wrong with Nazi Germany, for example, was not that the Nazis' goal — state control of each and everyone's life — was "pre-defined," but rather that that goal would violate human rights.
Dewey's notion of "pre-defined" — or "pre-determined" or "pre-conceived" — is itself in need of definition. In practice it seems to include anything.
To which Dewey would reply: Yes, and I intended it to. Any thought is "pre-defined" until it is carried out, neither true nor false until it is translated into physical action. Mass and force are real, thoughts are meaningless until made real. The thought follows the act.
One consequence of this is that we couldn't have known Hitler and Stalin were potential mass killers until after they had slaughtered a few million people.
Lest you think that an outlandish example, consider an admirer of Dewey, Mr. Dykhuizen writing in The Life and Mind of John Dewey (page 239):
"Summing up his impressions, Dewey suggested that the most instructive way to view events in Russia was as a great national experiment whose outcome was still in doubt. Like all experiments, the Soviet one involved continuous adjustments, risks, inconveniences, and uncertainties; ..."
Mr. Dykhuizen goes on to say "because of this Dewey was frank to admit that 'for selfish reasons I prefer seeing it tried in Russia rather than in my own country.' " (Sarcasm on.) What's a few Russians more or less? (Sarcasm off.)
Dewey uses his experimental method to justify trying any means, especially means towards a socialist end. Protests to the contrary, Dewey's experimentation is merely a shabby rationalization for "by any means necessary."
The respondent avoids acknowledging Dewey's admiration for much of the totalitarian machinery of Soviet Russia. Clearly Dewey loved that "great experiment." Yet the means were as wrong as what they ultimately entailed.
One wonders what Dewey would count as success and what as failure in the Soviet experiment, and whether his notions of success and failure were "pre-defined."
A valid theory is based neither on abstract thought divorced from reality, nor mindless observation divorced from analysis — both split mind from reality. Rather a valid theory is based on thoughtful observation of reality; experiments where you do something to see what happens can be a part of that. This, in telegraphic form, points to a far better method than Dewey's act now think later. (**)
Getting back to politics, it is especially in human affairs that you ought to be careful about experimenting.
America itself is sometimes referred to as an experiment. The difference between it and the Russian one lies in the political and ethical theory behind them. America was based on the Enlightenment's discovery of individual rights, the Soviet Union on collective ownership harkening back to primitive tribes. If human life is the standard, it's easy to choose which experiment deserved a try.
Communists, fascists, religious fundamentalists, etc. have only one thing in common: they believe something.
The respondent uses the words, "absolutist" and "idealistic" as meaningless ejaculations, like cuss words. If you assert anything that a Skeptic disagrees with you are "absolutist" and "idealistic."
But that they assert that is perfectly all right.
The problem with a fascist is not that he believes something, but rather that what he believes is wrong.
** Dewey strikes at the root of human thinking. His "the thought follows the act, what's true is what works" (not quoting anyone) as a general philosophy denies forming generalizations from concrete instances, denies abstracting essentials from chaos, denies the integration of knowledge — so that in Dewey's world you cannot know or predict anything.
