|Abstract of the research
|Creating Screen-Based Multiple State Environments: Investigating Systems of Confutation
|Donna Leishman, 2004
|The intentions of this practice-led thesis are to investigate the interplay between Internet based digital narrative, image and interaction, and ultimately develop new practice, which primarily within the experiencing of the artwork articulates a new contribution to the field of study. The dual literature and contemporary practice reviews highlighted this as desired output. The predominant research in the field is not focused on the production of new projects but uses various forms of literary and critical theory to search out new interpretations and structural understanding of the artefacts in question. Similarly the reviews revealed a strong set of visual hegemonies - namely the ascent of neo-minimalism and a preoccupation with the replication of reality. My practice sits between these poles as being a hybrid of detailed line art, handcrafting and popular imagery, and as such, functions with uniqueness. The interstitial paradigm is used to support the practice, as parallels are drawn not only in the aesthetics of the work but also the politic of the communication.
|The thesis is organised in three sections, Chapter 1 is theoretically orientated, aimed at defining the context for the practice. Chapter 2 is focussed on the artworks and in the main discusses the thinking behind, development and the production of two new projects -- The Bloody Chamber and Deviant: The Possession of Christian Shaw. Chapter 3 presents the discoveries rooted in the practice, concludes the thesis and finally offers some possible vistas for further research.
|The research questions were set-up to investigate the structural and aesthetic possibilities on offer to the practioner when aiming to create artworks that interstitially function on the premise of confutation and resistance whilst still attempting to create a sense of narrative immediacy.
|Through a combination of making practice, reflective evaluation and the appraisal of existing artworks I developed a new aesthetic in answer to the research questions. This aesthetic is termed as the "fragital". The fragital is an uncommon pairing of the digital experience -- that being the individualized remote onscreen touch, and the sense of a material and sensitive tangibility. This was used as a means to significantly and emotionally immerse the participant within the multiple state environment, whilst still in the structural accessing of the project, utilising the powers of confusion and disturbance as inherent in interstitial practice.
|The culmination of the research and an example of the fragital at work -- is located in the project Deviant: The Possession of Christian Shaw. The artwork is elucidated using critical insights from a group of twelve invited expert participants and an in-depth self-analysis. This group was invited on the basis of their interdisciplinary abilities, personal voice and commitment to my research area. The objective viewpoints of these participants was used not only to aid further understanding of the perception of the project but also to help me as the artist to extract extra arguments, complement my subjective understanding and gain additional contextual insights about my work.
|The different strands of the presented research work together to offer new insights into the production and concept of screen-based multiple state environments, and an original artefact Deviant: The Possession of Christian Shaw, which stands as a method to experience the core of research argument. The insights and discoveries as located in this thesis would be of use to other digital narrative practioners and those studying new media art.

Good Morning Traders!
The downside Breakout in SPs had good volume and the index hit the 50% retracement level of the prior daily upswing. The majority of the move came in the morning session and the rest of the day was spent consolidating the swing down. The 2-period ROC has a Buy Day setup and the market has traded two days high to low. All indexes were able to retrace backup to the 15 minute EMA but 30 minute Buy Divergences suggest that they may be able to rally back up to the 30 minute EMA (currently at 1949). An early morning rally will set up a shorting opportunity. The 60 and 120 minute charts made new momentum lows and this tends to demand a retest back down. If the market were to have a first hour sell off, it would set up a buying opportunity as the market is also oversold short term.
The Dollar index began to correct down on Tuesday and is having downside follow through in the overnight markets. if currencies have a large gap up basis US opening, do not chase. There still may bee room intraday for a long trade but overall upside is most likely limited to the 5 day high area in general.
Gold had a mini bear trap at the lower end of its trading range and can now trade back up to the upper end of the range.
Wheat has formed a nice rectangular base. The commercials are the longest they have been in many months. Should it have an upside breakout from this base, look for it to continue on up an equal distance to the upside.
Bonds – SHORT any rally above Wednesdays high or a lower high. There will be hourly grail buys on the first reaction down.
Fourth Quarter came out of the box with ACTION! Keep in mind that Third quarter was TREND in many markets that can now form a daily trading range (meaning, 1-2 days up…1-2 days down etc). Don't chase if markets get away from you.
NOTE WHERE THE RUSSELL is on the DAILY CHARTS….Right at new lows for the year…..IF YOU DO NOT HAVE ICE, LOOK AT IWM as a proxy. DO or Die point!
Happy Trading!

- 600 mg, 60 vegetarian capsules
- Item Catalog Number: 01534
L-cysteine is a conditionally essential amino acid, one of only three sulfur-containing amino acids, the others being taurine (which can be produced from L-cysteine) and L-methionine (from which L-cysteine can be produced in the body by a multi-step process). Cysteine plays a role in the sulfation cycle, acting as a sulfur donor in phase II detoxification and as a methyl donor in the conversion of homocysteine to methionine.136-138 Cysteine also helps synthesize glutathione, the body's most important intracellular antioxidant and a vital detoxifier.139-142
N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) is the acetylated form of L-cysteine that has been used to break up pulmonary and bronchial mucous.143-146 It is very efficiently absorbed and has been shown to protect cells directly and support the immune system.146-155 NAC is an antioxidant and a free radical-scavenging agent that increases intracellular glutathione at the cellular level. NAC can act as a precursor for glutathione synthesis as well as a stimulator of the cytosolic enzymes involved in glutathione regeneration.146 NAC has been shown to protect against oxidative stress-induced neuronal death in cultured granule neurons.156
|Supplement Facts
|Dosage and Use
Those who supplement with NAC should drink 6 to 8 glasses of water daily in order to prevent cysteine renal stones. Cysteine renal stones are rare but do occur.

Oh my God, he a zombie! Headshot! Walking Dead shit, James!
Ride Along 2 is the sequel to the 2014 comedy film starring Kevin Hart and Ice Cube.
After the events of the first film, Ben Barber has graduated from the police academy and is now an officer alongside Detective James Payton, his future brother-in-law. Ben is committed to becoming a detective like James, but his impulsion and clumsiness makes everyone doubt that he's ready. He decides to prove his abilities once more by joining an assignment James has in Miami involving drug suppliers. James refuses at first, but ultimately agrees both as a favor to his sister Angela and to prove that Ben doesn't have what it takes to be a detective.

This project is what happens when I just play. I was experimenting with the Top Note Die as I was practicing for an upcoming workshop. This ornament was cut using the Top Note Die and a thin piece of cardboard (the thickness used for a notepad or similar item). I adhered Merry Moments Designer Series paper to both sides of the ornament.
On a small piece of Whisper White paper, I stamped the cardinal and poinsettias from A Flower for All Seasons. I colored it using my water color pencils. I used the Merry Christmas sentiment from Teeny Tiny Wishes and stamped that along the side. I then layered that onto a piece of Real Red card stock.
Using my crop-a-dile, I punched two holes in the top and threaded Old Olive grosgrain ribbon as a hanger. Viola! A Top Note Christmas Ornament.
God Bless and Happy Stampin!

Westport's Economic Development Task Force will sponsor the second annual Westport Winter Market on seven Saturday mornings Nov. 11 through Dec. 23, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. The market will take place indoors on the basketball court in the basement of the Westport Town Hall Annex, 856 Main Road in Central Village.
Many area farmers and craft-makers will participate in the market, according to the task force. On the food side are Paradise Hill Farm with vegetables, apples, jams, wreaths, honey and more; Skinny Dip Farm with organic produce; Weatherlow Farms with beef, chickens, eggs, flowers and more; Barri Throop with jams and jellies, wreaths and other holiday items; and Gray's Grist Mill with Jonnycake meal, maple syrup and bean/ground coffee.
On the craft side, Hill Crest Alpacas will have — you guessed it — "everything alpaca"; the team of Sharon Owens, Biz Parris and Sugar Broughton will have hand-woven baskets, cane, pottery and other items; Casey Candles with soy candles; Lynn McCarthy with jewelry and other crafts; Hidden Gardens with flower arrangements and wreaths; Liz Wilcox with Lookout! embroidery designs; and Chris Wiley with Chrismark Gifts, knitted and crocheted clothing.
New to this year's market are Ray's Kettle Korn, Wagmore Dog Treats and Abbey Julian tie-dye goods, photos and note cards. More vendors are likely to sign up before the market opens, according to the task force.
"We are very pleased with the enthusiasm we have received from local farmers and crafts-people," organizers said in a statement, adding that last year's market was well-attended.
More information is available by contacting Maury May at (508) 636-9934 or firstname.lastname@example.com, or Steve Connors at (401) 447-5650 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

vCloud Automation Center is the VMware hybrid cloud self-service provisioning portal. It can be customized to extend its OOTB functionality. The following tutorial shows how from the vSphere web client create a menu operation to run a program in a guest or how to do it automatically once the VM has been provisioned.

vCloud Automation Center has several constructs such as blueprints, business groups, reservations to manage the virtual machines lifecycle and governance policies.
While most customers will use vCloud Automation Center out of the box some have several use cases for automation and integration. This is where vCenter Orchestrator comes into the picture.

It seems everyday the interest in vCenter Orchestrator (vCO) is growing. I love this because it brings more and more use cases to our attention. One such use case is the need to call vCO workflows via its REST API. In order to keep this article generic, but useful, I will work with the free RESTClient plug-in/add-on for Firefox as the client. The general process here will be similar to what you may need to do from your software or portal to integrate with vCO's REST API.

On a recent project, I was having trouble figuring out why invoking a SOAP operation kept failing with the vCO SOAP plug-in. The inputs I was providing appeared to be correct and worked just fine with soapUI. This short tutorial will teach you how to use the SOAPInterceptor to display the Header and Body that the SOAP plug-in is sending.

A vCO workflow wrapper is a set of workflow tasks that are added at the beginning of a workflow in order to take string values and look up a more complex data type or pre-defining inputs using attributes. You may have done these in the past already in vCO. Some examples would be finding a virtual machine by name or finding an Active Directory user by email address.
If you're running the vCO workflow from within the vCO client or vSphere web client, you probably don't need to worry about this as both of those tools understand the complex data types that come with plugins. On the other hand, if you're calling the vCO workflow from a tool like vCAC, it becomes extremely important to make it so that the vCO workflows only require strings as inputs--meaning that you need to add a vCO workflow wrapper to convert these string values to their more complex data types.

Why don't I just come out and say it. It's controversial for some reason, but it's the truth so I am going to say it.
We are not all equal.
There. It's all down hill here from that, right?
Some of us are taller than others. Some have more money than we do. Some are smarter. Some are more traveled. Some can decipher mathematical formulas that most of us can't.
I believe we are all equal in the eyes of God, to a great extent (although I hope God can differentiate the serial killer from the Saint). And we are supposed to be equal in the eyes of blind justice. But from our pocketbooks to our literacy, we are clearly not all equal.
And before anyone huffs and puffs about that reality, why do those same gaspers constantly point out to the gap between, say, rich and poor?
Even they can accept this fact of the universe. There is inequality everywhere in the cosmos.
Having said that, I believe that the same applies to cultures.
I remember some dimwit at U.C. Berkeley trying to tell me that all cultures are equal.
I was shocked. Really? The culture that canes people for committing adultery (if you are the woman, anyway) is equal to a culture that has due process of law and trial by jury? REALLY?!?!
The culture that has supermarkets on every corner is the same as a culture that eats, say, human flesh? Hmmmm. Interesting.
The cultures that bring you Magna Carta and the Bill of Rights are equal to the cultures that cut your hand off for stealing and kill you if you convert to another religion? I never knew that.
Well, an outspoken Dutch lawmaker, Geert Wilders, has dared to speak out against what he sees as radical Islam changing the very fabric of Dutch culture.
We have friends in Sweden and Denmark and they can attest to this, too. Radical Islam IS changing the fabric of these Western cultures. And the locals are NOT happy about it. They don't want Sharia law. They want Democracy.
But the cultural and moral relativists jeered Wilders when he spoke at Temple University in Philadelphia. Especially after he stated his belief that "our Western culture is far better than the Islamic culture and we should defend it."
Deep down, most of us in the West feel this to be true. Indeed we KNOW it to be true.
Who amongst us would trade your voting rights in the West for voting rights in, say, Iran?
What woman reading this would rather live in Syria than in America or England?
Any gays or lesbians reading this? Would you have many--if ANY--rights in the Middle East? Do they have gay pride in Iran? Doubtful.
If you are caught cheating on your husband, you would much rather be found out in New York City than in Cairo.
Would you prefer religious freedom in the West or in the Middle East?
Not to mention medical, scientific, and cultural advancements?
A republic is not equal to a dictatorship. SORRY. But the two are NOT equal.
If Western culture and Islam ARE equal, why aren't you TORN between the two?
Think about that before jeering Geert Wilders off of the next stage he speaks upon.

Distance: 42,2 km
D+/D-: 2.600 m
Highest point: Diavolezza – 2.980 m
Start time: 08:15 AM (tbc)
The new royal route of the Bernina Ultraks runs - as the name suggests - over a marathon distance of 42 km in front of the spectacular glacier backdrop of the Piz Bernina and the Piz Palü. The runners of our new highlight not only have to master the almost 2,600 metres of altitude difference, but also face the challenge of constantly changing terrain. Because this route has everything that makes the runner's heart beat faster: At the beginning, the main road leaves Pontresina heading south on the first trails along the UNESCO World Heritage route of the Rhaetian Railway in the direction of Moteratsch. The world-famous panorama train of the Bernina Express runs on this route. Up to now the route has been moderately uphill, but now it is getting steeper and steeper. It goes directly into the Bernina glacier massif and you will have to adjust to the scree of the glacier moraines. At the Bova hut at almost 2,500 m you have a great view of the surrounding high mountain landscape. Especially the Piz Palü with its striking appearance and the Piz Bernina, the only 4000m high mountain in the Eastern Alps, stand out.
The trail now continues along the Morteratsch Glacier and the Persgletscher in the direction of the Diavolezza. Good footwear and spikes are required here, as there are only a few places where the glacier has to be crossed over the glacier ice. After the ascent you reach the highest point of the route, the Diavolezza mountain station at 3,000 m, THE viewpoint of the Bernina Group. The following downhill will not be any less fun, on the east side of the mountain the trail runs almost 5 km downhill towards the Lagalb valley station. The way back to Pontresina experiences a new ascent at Piz Albris into Capricorn Paradise, up to Fuorcla Pischa. Continue northwest past Piz Languard and after a short downhill into the last small climb to the Segantini hut. The final highlight of this extraordinary trail, a fantastic view over the entire Upper Engadine, awaits you here. Now it's time to let it run and enjoy the last kilometres downhill towards the finish in Pontresina. Every finisher is in any case the conqueror of the Bernina and the winner is truly the king of the Bernina.

Did you know that today is a holiday? Well, technically not. Much like mother's day, if I haven't gone to sleep yet I'm counting it. It's even celebrated in 59 countries. I know that because I looked it up on Wikipedia and everything on Wikipedia is 1000% truth.
Today is a special day, an important day. It's father's day. A day set aside to honor and recognize dads. Being a parent is no easy thing. It's rewarding, but it's not easy. You have to choose it. Merely impregnating a woman doesn't make you a father. Yes, biologically, but being a dad is so much more than genetics. It's a lifestyle, an action. You make a choice to dedicate yourself to your child (blood or not); to protect and serve them, to love and be there for them. It deserves honor. It deserves recognition.
Part of getting the father's day cards created for church was looking up Bible verses to go on them. To do that, I looked up "father's day Bible verses" on Google. There's always that helpful person that has compiled a list of verses for any given holiday. If you are that helpful person: I love you. I love you deeply. I found a lot of verses about being strong and courageous, about leaving your parents to be a husband, you know – the typical stuff. I wanted something deeper, though. Something that really demonstrated the depth and importance of being a dad. I wanted to have something that displayed more than just a need for courage and strength. Do dads need that? Absolutely. Do they need to be beat over the head with that? Probably not.
Dad's are so important; so important. They are called to be more than the standard for strength, more than the money-maker. Look at the ultimate father – Abba Father. Our example of a good, good Daddy. God, guys; I'm referring to God. We have the greatest example of parenthood in Him. He loves selflessly, endlessly, unconditionally, just like dads here are called to do.
We had some fantastic guest speakers today (Jan and Debra Moore – go look 'em up), and he gave such an awesome message about dads. Of course we all know that life and death is in the power of the tongue – AKA words matter, and they are able to hurt. If you didn't know that, well, now you do. Jan talked about the importance of fathers not only loving their kids, but telling their kids that they are loved. He talked about fathers being with their kids, spending time with them. It was a good message, and one that I was able to personally relate to as well. However this is not about me (goodness, girl, get over yourself, huh?).
It's so easy for us to lose ourselves in this world of business, overdoing it, getting rich and the internet. The internet has definitely earned a spot on that list. These things are time-stealers if we let them be. Things that we can so easily (and mistakenly) allow top priority, thinking that the end result will be worth it and better for everyone. But it's not. The end result is important, yes, but it's the middle and the beginning that shape us.
I love my dad. My dad, well, he's my dad. I'd do anything for him, I really would. Okay, maybe not anything, but anything within my means. The thing is, though, he didn't grow up with a dad. His dad died in a horrible accident when he was only five years old. He didn't have a father figure. He had a mom who gave everything for her kids, working more than one job to earn the money to support her five boys. Take a moment to ponder that: having little money as well has five hormonal teenage boys. Yikes. Are you getting the picture?
My dad was never really shown how to be a dad. Please, I beg you, do not take this to be bad-mouthing my dad – I am not. He has done pretty good by me and I love him immensely. My dad has never been so good with the emotional side of parenting. He knew how to work, work, work. Get paycheck after paycheck after paycheck. Which, coincidentally, is how he lives (paycheck to paycheck). He took the shifts that others didn't want and he took any job he could, because he knew the importance of caring for his family. He understood the importance of providing for his kids.
I wasn't told a lot that he loved me. I wasn't hugged a lot by him. There was a point when he would angrily give me permission to do something because he didn't want to deal with me getting upset. I actually had a talk with him about this once. I had just moved in with him (my parents divorced when I was 3 and at the time of this conversation I was just entering high school), and I asked him to go for a walk with me. I asked him why he said yes when what he really wanted to do was say no. He said it was because someone convinced him that if he told me no too much I'd move back in with my mom. He also said that he figured I'd just throw a fit anyway so he said yes to get me out of his hair. I had to remind him that I was a female teenager, I was bound to get angry with him on a regular basis. Even if he did say yes (the answer I wanted) there was a 50/50 chance I was going to lose my cool. I told him that sometimes he was just going to have to say no anyway; he was the dad and I needed his guidance.
I think, probably, that deep down he really wanted to be my buddy. I think he couldn't stand the thought that any of his kids wouldn't want to be near him, so he usually gave into whatever we wanted, albeit grudgingly. My point is, he didn't have a dad to teach him how to be a dad. His upbringing reflected in his own parenting style.
Dads, you are important. Dads, you matter. Dads, your words have an effect. Dads, it's okay to be emotional. Dads, it's okay to be vulnerable. Dads, it's okay to really love your kids.
My husband is a father, obviously, and he loves big. The day our 4-year-old started preschool he and I both came home (he took the day off of work for the momentous occasion), laid on the floor with our arms wrapped around our one year old and both of us cried. He might be annoyed that I shared that story, but I say, "why not?" He loves his kids so much that he cries in joyous moments, in hard moments, in momentous moments. That's a good thing.
I hear the saying, "real men wear pink," and although I get the sentiment (I'd rather not see my husband in pink to be honest with you) I think the phrasing is too subtle. I think it should be, "real men cry," or "real men feel." That's what it means to be a dad. A dad like my husband. He is a good man. He is an amazing dad. It was hard for me not to cry while watching him read his homemade cards (I was too cheap to buy him a card; that or, you know, I forgot to); while watching the expression on his face transform . The joy that our kids bring to him is visible – it's tangible.
Dads, don't be afraid of vulnerability with your kids. Don't be afraid to let them see you both loose and stern. That's what real strength is, after all; it's about being able to be vulnerable and having that mix of hard and soft. Knowing when to be those things.
I won't pretend how to be a dad (I do – I just typed don't, Freudian slip? – know a bit about being a parent), but I do know that I respect the crap out of them. I honor you, dads. Young and old. Here and gone. Biological dads and emotional dads. The sacrifices you face are real. The struggles you go through are real. The joy, sadness, madness, clarity you experience are real. And yet, yet you make the choice to be a father every day. To do more than take responsibility. By being a father you willingly sign up to shape these little people, to love them and embrace them daily.
Father's, keep doing what you're doing. Know that even if it's not said enough (it never really is), you are loved. You were created. You are strong. You are honored, and you are respected. Continue to be there for your kids, being hard when you need to and easy when you can be. Your kids will never forget it. Continue teaching them.
Fathers, keep up the great work.
And thank you. From the bottom of my heart. Just thank you.

Having a core set of beliefs is not always easy to keep, especially in a world that demands us to do so much for others and our work. When our actions and values do not line up it can lead to undue stress and tension. Real Talk helps to navigate the minefield of "What Should I Do" and "Is this okay" by helping the client come to terms with life by finding a mutual ground between reality, their Christian belief, and their actions.

In this hectic day and age, many individuals and families experience emotional problems as a result of their lifestyle and actions being disconnected from their spiritual principles. In the therapeutic relationship, we explore the religious and spiritual values that are most important to you and help you to see how the current choices you may be making might be in conflict with those values. In many cases spiritual conflict is the source of that discomfort. By getting back to the fundamental basics of your spiritual beliefs, we have found we can help you to use the strength you are able to find in your faith, to overcome the depression, anxiety, and stress that you may be experiencing.

While most Christian Counselors pride themselves on how many Scriptural passages they can recite and how many links they can make from the Bible to psychological disorders, the Christian-centric work of Grey Matters International, Inc.is grounded in one principle: truth. For us, the work is more about truth and transparency of Christ's message and working on the natural laws of accountability and decision making that evolves from that. If one honors God's natural laws of reaping and sowing around the decisions one makes, one is indeed living Scripture to its fullest. We prepare the brain to better maximize the spiritual realities of Christ's words. Contact firstname.lastname@example.com.

Faith and prayer are an important part of every healthy life. In fact, as Catholic counselors faith and prayer are important aspects of our approach for counseling. These give people strength in times of brokenness, hope in despair, joy in the midst of trials, and clarity when you feel like your life is stuck in the fog. As counselors with Christian faith, we are especially capable of helping you grow spiritually as you heal from the past, examine the present, or look to the future. God is the same yesterday, today and forever—and our faith reminds us that He is with you always. So let's work together, not only journeying to joy, but also journeying closer to God.

December 28, 2015
The gardening year begins in winter, with learning, planning, and shopping. Now is the time to prepare for a more beautiful garden in spring and all through the season.
Learn. Take a class at The Morton Arboretum to develop your skills, expand your knowledge, or understand the basics if you're a beginner. Check out Landscape Gardening Basics to get started in the process of designing a home landscape. Sign up for a class to learn to Grow Vegetables from Seed. Or discover Go-To Perennials to make your garden pop this year.
The Sterling Morton Library is a fabulous place to spend a winter's day, browsing among hundreds of books and magazines on plants and gardening. You'll find books for every skill level, such as "Growing the Midwest Garden" by Ed Lyon; "Growing Seeds! Starting from Scratch" by Linda D. Harris; and "Essential Perennials: The Complete Reference to 2,700 Perennials" by Ruth Rogers Clausen. Using the library is free with Arboretum membership or paid admission, and members can check out many books.
Plan. Now, with the leaves gone, is a perfect time to make a plan of your garden that you can use for this season and for years to come. It will help you understand your conditions and be realistic about what you can and can't plant. Even a rough sketch can be a great help.
Start with the size of your lot. You can use graph paper or one of many online garden planning apps, which you may be able to use with a smartphone. Buy or borrow a 25- or 100-foot tape measure and take lots of measurements: the size of the house, the width of pathways and driveways and how far apart they are, and the position of fixed objects such as water features, play sets, and raised beds.
On your plan, include the direction the sun comes from and which areas of your garden are in full sun, part sun, or shade. Note places that are exposed to wind or the spray of road salt. And note issues such as a place where there's so much traffic grass won't grow or a view you'd like to screen.
Mark each tree on the plan and use your tape measure to figure out how far its branches reach; that's the area in which it will cast shade during the growing season when it has leaves. Many gardeners don't notice how much trees have grown and how wide their shade has become.
Using your plan, you can decide on your gardening priorities for this season. Will you create a new bed? Start a vegetable garden? Plan some new shrubs for screening?
Shop. Experienced gardeners' mailboxes fill with catalogs in January. For newbies, there are websites. It's easy to get swept away and buy more seeds than you could ever start or order more perennials than you have space for, so use your garden plan to keep your shopping realistic. Make sure you only order plants that will fit your light and soil conditions and that you have the time and inclination to care for.
If you're a new vegetable gardener, start small. Order just a few seeds, or plan to purchase transplants (seedlings ready to plant out in the garden) in May.
If you're an old hand, don't forget to rotate the position of vegetable crops to deter soil-borne diseases. Think hard about how many vegetables your family ate last year and how much work your perennial border required before you get carried away.
Don't spend all your garden money ordering from catalogs or websites. Plan to attend the Arbor Day Plant Sale at The Morton Arboretum April 29 through May 1. You find a wide selection of expertly chosen plants, many of them grown at the Arboretum and you'll support our mission as the champion of trees.

Bethel Middleman to God
"Since GOD is the being we are to worship.. Why is it that the church ..has inserted themselves in his position?? And call leaving them …as leaving GOD.. IF in fact a person had left GOD..why… Pray tell would they be on here advocating that people draw closer to GOD..GO to his word and not listen to those that say you must be a member of their church to gain salvation."
This is true and a signal seen at the last point of Christian clarification in Jehovah's witnesses as the ministry that pointed out the League of Nations made the first "new world order" claim to a developing world government for planet earth.
Thus regardless of prophecy it is now world record that the Kingdom of God AND the globalist "League of Nations" system BOTH made a well known claim to world sovereignty.
In it's very essence an astounding potential conflict for that sovereignty, that some like to call Armageddon, was laid out.
So it is no surprise people will generally avoid the issue of world government and try to ignore the globalist backed globalization process which must culminate into world government a number of years from now, and they will also ignore the Kingdom of God.
And the Bethel apostate "mediator" billionaires actually aid this ignoring of something that WILL have a culmination and a sovereign confrontation in the future. The whole point being sidestepped is that JESUS CHRIST is the King who will rule planet Earth, and when that 8th King complete world government JESUS CHRIST will show up to prove it permanently by war, the 8th King preferred method of domination.
But Christ will fight Divine War for God.
Now Jehovah's witnesses have even forgotten the significance of that League of Nations 1919 and United Nations 1945 claims to global sovereignty.
How do we know? Because they treated the 3rd UN "New World Order" placement of 1990 as inconsequential and insignificant, and instead JOINED the global 3rd UN placement "New World Order" campaigning as UN NGO in their sector of global influence for endorsing the UN world government.
By Bethel lead JWs act like the USSR never fell so as to be a valid King North (Dan11:36, 42-43), and the UN NWO never arose.
In fact that 3rd UN NWO placement IS THE KING OF THE NORTH!!!
So JWs also cover up and divert prophecy to cover up their 8th King handlers and the real King North as Daniel 11:30-41 3rd UN and post 3rd UN placement developments that lead to Daniel 11:42-45 4th UN world government placement of the future.
Thus organizational distraction, GB "lifting themselves over everyone", endless minutia of the JW past, scandal of all sorts, stumbling lawlessness, and more apostate prophecy fulfilling but unknown to JWs AIDS THEIR OPERATION AND CONCEALMENT OF THE TRUE ISSUE.
They have JWs acting as if the 3rd UN placement never occurred, and that it will not lead to the 4th UN placement of world government, and that it is "all done", and none of it really matters! Well done! We are at apex!
But in fact it is that 4th UN cycle as Daniel 11:42-45 that is about to just BEGIN, not end.
In fact JWs will be under the Daniel 8:13-14 temple judgment desolation decree for that UN NGO, and this cover up, and all this brazen idolatrous lawlessness.
That is why the org inserting itself in place of Jesus Christ, and the GB word as more important than the Bible, gradually brought in (Dan8:12), will have disastrous results, because at one time old school Christian JWs DID EXPOSE THE RIVAL 8TH KINGDOM!
And now the national power progression to the 7th King is DONE. NOW the 8th King GLOBALIST system is what will supercede the 7th King nation-state system, including the US, Brit and EU national systems, ALL will be deposed by financial intrigues of Daniel 11:42-43 to 8th King global wealth domination.
With the wealth power will follow the sovereign power of world rulership, and that will take a final cycle as Daniel 11:42-45 converging into Daniel 12 final fulfillment to accomplish – and NONE of this is even slightly comprehended by the duped JWs.
THAT is what the modern final "man of lawlessness" does by "the lie", and the "operation of error" right at Bethel, the last point of Christian ministerial validity until the GB coup of 1970-1976 developments.
The GB has a covenant as a "body" with themselves, and thereby lift themselves over the "body of the Christ" and left the "holy covenant" at that time, but the trend was heading lawless and apostate even before that time.
At least JWs exposed the first two UN placements. The Bethel downfall will create an accelerated final recovery ministry to warn of the 4th UN placement, and explain the 1990 3rd UN placement globalization developments WHILE a tribulation is active, just like WW1, and the Kingdom of God will give one final warning, as the second witness (Rev10:11), prior to 8th King world government completion.
Then the you know what will truly hit the 8th King fan. The temple judgment will start the final prophetic cycle taking a few last years to arrive at Armageddon, and 8th King world government, the rival sovereign completion God and Christ await for their own sovereign Kingdom of God Almighty response.
JWs who make the wheat cut, and others joining in, have a lot of work to get done in the final recovery, leading to the final 1260 days, but it will take place because it is God who "causes my two witnesses to prophesy" the final invitation and warning. (Rev10, 11:1-7).
The Bethel apostasy and downfall will just get the world's attention as the context of the final Kingdom announcement that will come forth from that judgment, first. (1Pet4:17; Dan8:13-14; Rev8:1-6 replication final fulfillment) Zech3:1-5.

The shore is an ancient world, for as long as there has been an earth and sea there has been this place of the meeting. The Edge of the Sea, Rachel Carson
The Edge of the Sea is an apocalyptic relic, a result of the merging of ecologies from above and beneath the ocean. The work begins with a fascination in the skeletons of sponges washed up on the nearby coastline and a sense of wonder in both their similarities to land fauna and a re-imagining of their live state.

I have most of the photos from Leah's set finished so I thought I'd share them with you! I have known Leah for so long and it was really nice seeing her again. We had so much fun together – well, I did for sure! She is beautiful, strong and has such an old soul ;) Our styles are very similar as well as having a lot in common so it was definitely easy working with her. There was little posing – Leah just gave me everything I needed for this set! You'll be seeing more of Leah on my blog as we have some more sessions in the future planned already ;)
So Leah brought all these cute, vintage accessories for the shoot and I was soooo, so in love with them! This is a real vintage piece, it's from her grandmother. I absolutely LOVE it.

Dr Alan Hernandez Alvarez - 'Building up an appetite for a new kind of grub: Insects, algae, fungi and creepy bacteria'
Date: Tuesday 3rd December 2019
Time: 12:00 13:00
Location: School of Earth and Environment 8.119 (seminar rooms)
Speaker: Dr Alan Hernandez Alvarez, Food Science and Nutrition
Chair: Professor Steve Banwart, Director
Title: Building up an appetite for a new kind of grub: Insects, algae, fungi and creepy bacteria: Novel and Emergent Protein Sources as potential ingredients for Functional and Nutraceutical Foods.
Abstract: While facing climate change and natural resource scarcity, ensuring sufficient, nutritious, safe and affordable food to a fast-growing world population with changing dietary habits becomes increasingly challenging. Shifting Diets for a Sustainable Food Future, the World Resources Institute estimates we will need 70% more food to meet global demand in 2050 than in 2006.
It is unlikely that improvements in agricultural productivity alone will be able to close this gap, given that yields would have to increase 33% faster than they did during the Green Revolution. The protein supply is in this respect most critical, both for human consumption and animal feed. Integration of a variety of new or alternative protein sources from terrestrial and/or aquatic origin into new and/or existing processes or products needs to be explored, in order to develop and ensure more sustainable, resilient supply chains, featuring high consumer acceptability by a clean labelling approach and attractive market opportunities.
