After a brief delay by winter weather, construction at the site of the new Sealy Elementary School resumed late last week as members of the Sealy ISD school board and members of the committee that played a part in putting the project together toured the site.
Sealy ISD Project Manager Mike Zapalac and Project Superintendent Les Sturm briefed the members on the status of the construction before leading a tour. Zapalac pointed out four corners of the building as "pods" that will house two grade levels to help increase collaboration.
"We've created spaces that make it so when you walk through, the collaborative spaces are very open and help facilitate it and of course we'll have state-of-the-art technology in the classrooms that will help with that as well," Zapalac said.
Zapalac said the project is forecasted to have a less than 1 percent increase in spending from $29,484,000 to $29,518,000but that small difference is still within the bond scope so it hasn't affected funding or construction.
The school is 108,000 square feet which is an 8,000-foot increase from the original plan but Zapalac said the increase will just allow the school to make the most out of their money. He also said the school will have several entry ways that will help facilitate traffic for drop-off and pick-up.
"There will be a main passenger drop-off entrance to the west and there will be a separate one for bus drop-off to help keep them separate," Zapalac said. "We'll be able to stack 185 vehicles by the way we route them so that should reduce and eliminate any congestion on 2187."
As for the building itself, the corners of the building are large collaborative areas being referred to as pods. There will be one for the pre-K, kindergarten and first graders, second and third graders and fourth and fifth graders. Each area will have several spacious classrooms were large windows not only looking outdoors but another looking into a community area outside.
"Having this open environment and natural light will not only help teachers keep an eye on the children but it will facilitate communication and collaboration and I know the kids are just going to love it," Superintendent Sheryl Moore said.
The middle of the school will have more classrooms, the cafeteria and the library. The placement of the library as a central part of the school was one done on purpose to help the library feel like a more natural part of the building that encourages students to enter.
"Kids should be able to come and go and it should be a beautiful part of the school and be at the heart of everything," Moore said.
The recent winter weather did cause a small delay in the construction process which has already been dealing with delays from Hurricanes Harvey and Irma in fall 2017. Moore said the delays are pushing the finalization of a starting day for school next fall.
"The hard date for us possessing the building is Aug. 28 because they have sanctions in place if it's not done by then but we don't want to start school on Sept. 4, ideally we're shooting to have possession by Aug. 1," Moore said. "That way we can go in and make sure it's up and ready because it's like when you move into a house until you move in, you don't know what you'll need and it's perfectly normal but we need some time to figure those things out."
Moore said a start date will likely be selected sometime in April.
Hi Guys,
Might want to check your numbers on the reported cost increase. Going from $24.5 million to $29.5 million is a $5 million increase (20%).
Perhaps it was a typo and the overall cost is increasing from $24.5 million to $24.9 million which is a $400 K increase (1.6%)?
Hi Danny,
Thank for catching that correction. It was a typo on my part. The actual number is $29,484,000 to $29,518,000. The correct figures are there now.

Is it strange that I was so worried about how things would be when AJ went back to work but it was the day he returned to work when things got better? I should have known… my son thrives on routine. I think he likes the schedule and security. He likes knowing what to expect. After two weeks of fun and visitors things returned to as normal as Drew had known them (with the addition of a baby girl in the house!). He is like me and change, with large life events, isn't his strong suit. We did breakfast together with just the two of us that day and showered and got ready before she woke up (I had done a 5 am feeding that day). Once Elle was awake I fed her and decided to tackle my fear of running an errand with two kids. We went to Target for one thing and then went home for lunch and a nap…. A morning very similar to pre- Elle mornings. I needed to show Drew that some things have stayed the same… and I may have kept a routine for my own sanity as well. 🙂
The chance to begin again. If your day starts rough, as mine did yesterday, picture yourself starting it over. I took a second yesterday and prayed that God would give me grace with Drew (nothing i was doing was making him happy it seemed). Somehow this gives me a fresh outlook and I'm able to just realize some days we all wake up on the wrong side of the bed.
Remember when I mentioned AJ called that one morning and I burst into tears? I needed to "begin again" on that day and try to forget the rest of the morning happened and then start fresh.

[Note random sign in background.] I keep telling myself after each move or trip or visit that I need to settle down more b/c it seems to get harder each time. But I fear that is not in the cards AT ALL for me.
[Here's the sign up close!] Yesterday I went for a little stroll into the big field since the sun had come out. I was going to walk more but b/c the sun was so intense, I instead pretended to be Jami w/my camera, stayed close to shade, and eventually just lay in the grass for a while.
On my way back, I noticed that I no longer had the house keys in my pocket. I doubled back to the shady spot of the big tree I was under and thank goodness it was there. This is the nice thing about slow, uneventful days: it's easy to retrace steps, there's plenty of time, and there's only one way certain things could have happened b/c so little has happened that day.
Ben got home in time from work to take me out to dinner on the marina; lots of seafood and wine. Too much wine! Plus I had been eating tons of dark chocolate that he had gotten me when I first flew into Ohio two weeks ago. It was day of pure indulgence (besides the inevitable admin that I felt compelled to continue).
Ben wanted to lay out in the field afterwards to watch stars, but once he fell asleep, I bundled him up and went back inside, only to wake at 3am in a panic b/c he was still outside and I had not fetched him. At times, I am possibly the most heartless anti-romantic ever, but luckily he came in a few minutes after three and didn't get mad even though it was warranted. He took care of breakfast and getting me to the airport on time and I made it right as my fave Roots song came on.
After the drive, flight, bus ride, and train commute, I made it home to face a ginormous shipment of bricks from a traveling exhibit. Of course they packed it all wrong so the bricks were crushed, but I just shoved them into a bag and threw it downstairs into the "scary" closet (my name for places that you just throw shit into and then don't deal with. Like the scary drawer, etc. - not that I have one! But I take advantage of other people's). Oh, and the 20-kilo box from Korea that I shipped in May. Books, research, odds and ends, and winter clothing. I might as well box up all the winter clothing to ship right on upstate.
I am not looking forward to tomorrow: massive packing for my month in CT. Excited for how that will shape up, but not excited about digging deeper into what has turned into the scary bins of art, supplies, and who knows what else. But the work has begun!

Basic Training Part 3 of 3
In the final session of the Basic Training series, our goal was to combine the GOSPEL Journey and our testimony. The GOSPEL Journey by itself can come across as too mechanical. Our testimony by itself may not completely explain God's plan of salvation. However, when we combine the sound theology of the GOSPEL Journey and a personal testimony we can most effectively share our faith. Once again, Dare 2 Share encouraged us to have students role play sharing their faith with each other.
We sang I Will Go by Starfield throughout this series. Check it out:

Business Magnate is a tycoon business simulation game where you can create all types of businesses: Cars, rockets, phones, tanks, trucks, airplanes, computers, and ships. Design, produce, market and sell them. You can even run multiple companies at the same time. Start by creating a company: First, choose what to produce. For example, you can design cars (combustion engine based, electric, hybrid), then produce, market and sell them. Other types of products are trucks, phones, computers, ships, airplanes, tanks and even rockets. Once you are successful, you can even start more companies, and run them at the same time. In order to meet market demands, you need to design your products so that customers will actually want them, and won't prefer to buy your competitors products. Research new technologies and design new products as your move on to fit into a moving market. For example for cars, you want to research bigger and more efficient batteries, if you decide to produce electric cars, or more performant combustion engines if you want to produce gasoline or diesel based cars. The game is running in real-time, but can be accelerated and paused at any time. Manage employees, track financial and sales data, start and run marketing campaigns, analyze the market. Expand your company when you have figured out how everything works and manage the production plan and build new facilities, warehouses, offices or even launch pads.

The Long Engagement - Compositional Sketches / Sketch of Two Figures
Accession number: 1959P10
Pen and brown ink on paper, arched top.
Width: 111 mm
Height: 181 mm
The compositional development of 'The Long Engagement' is a long story, revealing much about the hesitant and scrupulous nature of its artist. On a visit to Rossetti's studio on 13 March 1854, G.P. Boyce noted, 'A young man of the name of Hughes was painting a picture of Orlando inscribing his mistress' name on a tree. Parts nicely painted.'Having apparently reversed the composition (with the tree on the left), in August 1854 Hughes painted a detailed background of wild roses in the open air.Dissatisfied with the figure of Orlando and with the Shakespearian subject, Hughes wiped it out and at a later date began to devise a two-figure composition of 'modern lovers'. The three sketches on this sheet show Hughes trying to work out the composition of the two figures.

Veiled chameleon, you may never hear about it before. This chameleon dominated with green color but not as light as chameleon garden. Their green color usually combined with yellow, and some of them have tosca vibe green. The veiled chameleon is an endemic lizard from Arabian Peninsula in Yemen and Saudi Arabia. Beside called as veiled chameleon, this species also known as cone-head chameleon and Yemen chameleon.
Why they called cone-head chameleon? Well it is related with their physic which has like helmet above their head. If another chameleon has like spike around the back, veiled chameleon only had it in the head. The spike of veiled chameleon is placed under their jaw so from far if you look over their shape, their head is like triangle. On the back, there is still spike but not intense as under their jaw. Their tailed also really rolled which is really beautiful. And their body tends to be rounded. It's like they are bowing.
Specifically if we talk about appearance, there are some differences on male and female veiled chameleon. The male have higher veiled than female, physically their head is more precise and bigger than female. The male have tarsal spur on every each their legs and the female didn't. When they are getting older, both male and female is changing in different color. And generally the male is larger than female. The adult size of veiled chameleon depends on their gender.
Usually the male growth until 43.2-61 centimeters from the tip of the snout the end of their tails and the females will growth until 25.4-33 centimeters. And the weight, male is usually 85-170 grams and the female is 85-118 grams. Those number before can be increase depend on your treatment and food type that you give for them.
Like another kind of chameleon, as psychologically they are same which hate to be touched in their back, love to live lonely, and need calm environment. Mostly of them have short lifespan which is just 5 years old but the male able to living until 8 years as long as they get well treatment.
Basically, breed veiled chameleon is not far different when raise another chameleon. Fortunately they breed by laying eggs. As we know that some kinds of chameleon breed by laying eggs and give birth so it needs different method to help them. Back to the topic, here are some steps to breed veiled chameleon.
- Color changing and another physically transforms.
As we know that chameleon will change their color during sick, stressed, pressed, or cold. But they do change their color during pregnancy. For the veiled chameleon you can found them transform into 'pale' color. For example if you have green the female veiled chameleon which has grey vibe, she will transform into cream color and their green will mostly disappeared and dominated with chocolate or brown. You may little bit shocked and guess that your chameleon is sick or stress after sex thing but that's totally not true.
They do may feel stressed because this chameleon species loves hard sex style but every creature will feel differences during pregnant, isn't it? So it is not because they feel forced and stressed but it is like representation of their adjustment to prepare as mom. Their back also will change. If it is like curved before the female is pregnant, that curved back will disappeared and tends to be really straight. And don't forget, their tummy is bigger too. On this point, all you can do as pet owner is just don't be shock and just calm. Don't act too much and avoid the useless reaction which may increase their stress level. The chameleon mama will be back normally after she laid her egg and it doesn't need a long time.
- Laying eggs process.
Honestly there is two method to breed and lay their eggs and the ways are naturally and imitation. If you choose natural ways, just add some sand into their cage and let them excavated their hole cave to place the eggs. But if you want to more than natural, you can help them and get the veiled chameleon mama in your own incubator. It is so easy to make the incubator by yourself. You just need a huge trashcan and filled the over half with sand, a big branch with vines which wrapped around it and fitted screen over the top. Don't forget to install UV light and basking lamp. You can cover your own incubator using wire. Don't forget to measure the temperature and the humidity and placed food and drinking water inside it.
Honestly it is similarly called as place breeding than incubator but that's okay because the imitation incubator is similarly with that but has different cover. During digging process which is means the laying eggs is getting near, the chameleon mama will not eat or drink. She may too focus to lay the eggs. This digging process takes some days, usually for 4-7 days. Even need extra energy to do that, chameleon mama tend to need more water than food. Ah almost forgot, the eggs appearance is really white which looks like rambutan fruit seed. Chameleon mama can produces until 30 eggs per lay. The eggs texture is slimly. The slimly is used for paste the egg over the nest in their wild life.
- Incubate and wrecked process
In their wild life, veiled chameleon will used the heat sand in Arab to incubate her eggs. But don't worry you can make your own incubator as mentioned before. To make the heat is not coming out you can use the trashcan cover to cover up your own incubator. It will take 190 days until they started to hatching out. Keep the dampness of the incubator into medium to make sure that it wasn't drying out.
For wrecked process itself, it takes about a week and each one took around 24 hours. Not 100% the eggs can live. Five from 30 eggs usually dies. The newborn veiled chameleon eating fruit lies and after a view days they start to drink water. For giving water, you can spray it over the wall and leaves on the plants which you inside it before. To make their growth become quick, you can give them calcium supplement beside they are still young and can't hunt perfectly yet. For temporary situation, you can place the babies veiled chameleon into one cage but remember separate it into different cage when they are getting adult.
If you feel hard to raise the 26 veiled chameleons together, you can let them to be adopted, sell it, or give it into biology student collage as research object. Raise it in dozen will takes big budget. If you have fit budget which able to cover up their treatment, you can go ahead with it. But if you don't have enough budget, don't do it.

Someone, presumably a local, has posted some great pictures of the breach on the Stourbridge Canal, which is why we won't be taking this route next week. It seems there's a 50 metre hole in the embankment, and all the water drained into the river below. BW say the canal will be closed for at least four months.
And here's why we won't be going on the Avon or the Severn: floods in Tewkesbury, and in Worcester.
The latest thinking is that we might go into Birmingham first, then on to the Black Country Living Museum at Dudley, then down the Stratford Canal to Bancroft Basin, before turning round and heading back to base.

The rise of fidelity in digital photography has paved the way for the establishment of the medium as a means to create fine art. The improvements in sensor and lens quality, as well as advanced fine-tuning of settings, allows photographers to capture breathtaking images with their digital cameras.
The term "fine-art photography" isn't new, of course. The Photographic Fine Art Association, founded in 1961, sought to distinguish photography as an art rather than as a craft, as it was seen at the time. The term applies when the photographs taken evoke both mental and emotional stimulation, provoking the viewer's imagination.
While it could be argued that any photograph that results in any kind of response is itself art, fine art photography follows certain specific tenets, some of which we'll go over in this article.
Tips and Tricks for Digital Fine Art Photography
1. Find inspiration.
Art is often stagnant if inspiration does not strike (or so artists would have you believe). However, looking for inspiration does not mean sitting around and waiting for your muse to strike. It means activelyseeking ways to light that creative fire within you. Figure out ways to make the ordinary extraordinary, from a simple coffee table setup, the trees in your backyard, or even your kitchen.
Go for walks around your town, and see if you can find any interesting structures. Talk to people you meet, and observe their mannerisms. Not only will you have a potential person to make a portrait of, but you'll cultivate working and personal relationships as well.
Develop an eye for detail, and continually look at your surroundings. You never know which everyday item can become a fascinating subject for photography.
2. Know your equipment.
None of our tips will have any merit if you don't know your equipment well. Understand what your particular telephoto lens is good for, and know when exactly to use your diffuser.
Can that window be better shot by attaching a monopod to your camera? And while using a tripod is generally recommended to establish a more stable shot, there are times when not using one will result in a more artistic shot.
Experiment with different pieces of equipment—the beauty of digital photography is that you can take as many photos as you want, and see the effects of manipulating different variables.
You should also be familiar with your camera itself—know what settings affect your photos, such as aperture, shutter speed, and focus. Tweak them to create the best-looking photographs. Reading up on these effects is one thing, but actually using them yourselves is another.
Try each of the settings out individually so you know what they do, and make artistic adjustments accordingly. It's good practice to try to get the shot right from the onset, instead of having to rely on an image editor afterward.
3. Introduce sufficient lighting.
Lighting is one of the most evocative elements in any photograph. A well-lit image generally brings out feelings of lightheartedness and happiness, whereas darker images generally cause melancholyand gloom. Otherwise, identical photographs with only the lighting modified can result in completely opposite reactions in viewers.
Use open windows to bring in natural light. Or you can shoot at night or introduce shutters for darkness. Try to avoid using flash as much as possible, as that may result in harsh lighting—unless that's the effect you're going for.
4. Employ affective angles.
The angle at which a photograph is shot is important as well, because that assumes the perspective of the viewer. Lower angles make the subject much more dominant, causing them to tower over the viewpoint. Meanwhile, if you wish to de-emphasize the subject, use higher angles. Direct shots seem more technical, and are reminiscent of architectural elevations. They can be seen as too clinical and sterile for artistic photography.
5. When all else fails, edit.
In a previous item, we talked about getting the picture right at the click of the shutter, but there are benefits to post-processing as well.
Like it or not, there are elements outside our control, like people suddenly barging into the frame, or the sun and clouds refusing to cooperate. You'll also be able to adjust the white balance of the images for greater consistency, enhance certain colors, and prepare the image for publishing or printing by converting into a more optimized format.
Here are some creative digital fine art photos:
Following these tips will facilitate your transformation froma competent technical photographer to one who knows how to capture the emotion in a subject and impart it to a viewer. How wouldyou use these guidelines in your fine art photography? Are there others that have helped you develop as an artist? Let us know in the comments below!

Assemblage of
Musings of an over-caffeinated, slightly ajar yet well-meaning writer.
Bless me people, it has been way too long since my last blog post...
I have to admit this set of "rambling musings" was brought on by one person... I will touch on a few other "things" but after hearing what this jackass had to say, I was compelled to get my thoughts, anger and downright disgust down on paper, er... the internet.
So, who is this lone offender and what did they say to drive me to this?
Well, no it was NOT Rush Limbaugh nor Pat Robertson, although they would be very good guesses indeed considering the absolutely sanity-deficient comments both of these "gentlemen" made re: the Haitian earthquake.
Actually if you want to read something that essentially sums up my thoughts on this particular topic, check this out...
Ok, so it's not Rush and it's Pat... so who is it?
Well, the person is in the sports world... sort of. He likes to think he's in the sports world wherein fact he is in his own world.
I am referring to the man many people call The Professor... John Clayton of ESPN.
Now, truth be told, I am taking my ire out at him but in reality my disdain and disgust is toward
ALL like him... AKA, the so-called "national experts" when comes to football.
ALL like him... AKA, the so-called "national experts" when comes to football.
I just happened to hear him on a local radio station and what he said set me off... literally. But trust me, he is hardly alone in his complete ignorant and uneducated stance on OUR Philadelphia Eagles.
How do I know this? Because anyone who has seen each and every snap, play, kick, run, pass, blown timeout, poor clock management of every single Eagles game since (insert date here) could not possibly believe what he said to be truthful.
The problem, my children, is that far too many people take what these "experts" tell us as Gospel.
'Well, they're on ESPN, they must know what they're talking about... they must know the truth, right?'
The first egregious and inane comment The Professor made was in speaking about the gap in talent between the Cowboys and the Birds. He essentially said, and obviously believes that the gap is not that great.
But to say the gap in talent is not that great is beyond ludicrous. John, booby, the Eagles just did not lose, they were destroyed... DEE-STROYED! The gap in talent you refer to is Grand Canyon-esque...!!!!!!!!!!
"I think the Eagles can be talked into making the mistake of trading McNabb."
That was JC's response to the question of 'who will be the starting QB next year?'
He went on to call Donovan an "elite" quarterback.
Let's stop right there... have to get out the dictionary... hang on...
elite: the best or most skilled members of a group
If Donovan McNabb is one of the best or most skilled members of the group of NFL Quarterbacks, that to me is a clear indication of the dearth of elite quarterbacks, plain and simple...
Ok, moving on... what else did The Professor have to say...??
He went on to say he thinks Kevin Kolb, if handed the starting job, would not be able to win the close games...
Hmmmm.... refresh me there Professor, exactly how many close games has Donovan won again?
"The smart thing to do is keep McNabb and give him a 1-year extension."
It was at this point I seriously considering driving off the road into a ditch...
What exactly would Donovan McNabb do in 2010-11 that he didn't do the previous 10+ years???!?!!!
What makes you think next year would be any different???!!!
Jeezus, I'm getting fired up again just thinking about this jackass...
'I know by mid-season he (McNabb) was probably doing some of his best leadership particularly with that young group (referring to the Eagles' younger players)...
It was at this point I seriously considering driving headfirst into the nearest telephone pole...
"...some of his best leadership." That is arguably the single-funniest thing I have EVER heard...
There is more to the interview and if you want to listen to it, be my guest... here's the link...
But... do I need to say any more? Do I need to cite any more examples of just how out of touch John Clayton and those like him really are when it comes to the Eagles?
And EVERY other team... remember this the next time someone like Clayton or another "expert" espouses theories and thoughts on a given team and you start to take it as Gospel... chances are, it's not.
In the case of the Eagles and Donovan McNabb, you have a group of "experts" who look at numbers, plain and simple.
They look at statistics. They see gaudy numbers on McNabb's resume and wonder aloud how the people in Philly can't appreciate what they have.
It is the exact same logic they apply to Andy Reid.
But Lord, don't me started on that subject...
I said I would talk about more "stuff" but you know what...?
I can't... I emotionally and physically drained. Plus I have to go to the bathroom...

Interdisciplinary Studies
Stable isotope tracers can be valuable tools for interpreting the way an ecosystem has functioned over time. Both modern and archaeological swordfish rostra spanning 4,200 years were collected from the Gulf of Maine and other parts of the western North Atlantic for 15N and 13C analysis to understand shifts in swordfish populations and reconstruct their diets through time. In addition, several selected whole rostra were subsectioned and analyzed for bulk carbon and nitrogen isotope analysis in order to evaluate the isotopic variability that can occur along the length of a rostrum.
Preliminary results show notable variability of both δ13C and δ15N along individual rostra, particularly between the outer edge and inner chamber regions. This variability may be due to differences in nutrient exchange throughout the internal bone structure, and may reflect natural changes in the diet of the swordfish throughout its life as the rostrum grows. The δ15N of the archaeological rostrum collagen is relatively constant between 4.2 ka BP and 3.5 ka BP, and then becomes about 1‰ depleted in modern samples. These data may reflect (1) a decrease in trophic level of the swordfish, (2) a change in nutrients at the base of the food web, or (3) a fundamental shift in swordfish populations. Swordfish used to be an important resource to human cultures in the nearshore region of the Gulf of Maine; thus, the study of the dietary habits provides useful information on changes in their ecology as well as human exploitation.

Darkroom training sessions
Dear PhotoSoc members,
This week, we will be starting training sessions in the darkroom. The room itself is in the Engineering building on Mappin Street. We will meet anyone doing the sessions in the foyer because it's quite a confusing building if you haven't been in there before.
If you are interested in learning how to use the darkroom, or if you are already experienced and would just like orientating so you can use it yourself, please send us an email and let us know how much experience you have had.
We will arrange you into groups, depending on how much darkroom experience you have.
Group 1 – No darkroom experience.
Group 2 – Little experience in the darkroom, but need some guidance with developing and printing.
Group 3 – Confident in developing and printing, little guidance needed, just an orientation.
If you are experienced and confident in using the room and are interested in teaching others, please let us know.
For next week (w/c 30th November) the sessions will be as follows:
Wednesday 2nd Dec: 1130 – 1230 for GROUP 1
Thursday 3rd Dec: 10 – 11 for GROUP 3
Friday 4th Dec: 11 – 12 for GROUP 2
Please email us ASAP if you'd like to attend these sessions as it will be on a first come first served basis. Maximum 4 people per session.
If you don't have a film camera, we do have an Olympus OM10 that you can borrow free of charge. Just visit the equipment booking form on the website to book it for yourself.
We look forward to hearing from you!

Darkroom Coordinators

The feast of St. Philip Neri in Brompton oratory
I went to Brompton Oratory last Saturday to celebrate the feast of St. Philip Neri. Although the Holy Mass was NOT what people usually call "traditional Latin Mass", the Mass was celebrated ad orientem and in Latin. I could now describe in great details how encouraging and beautiful was to participate in a Mass, where priest and servers take their role seriously and the entire Mass is celebrated with much reverence and solemnity. That is not my intention however. Instead of writing ecstatic post on the splendour of Saturday's Mass, I would like to offer few controversial points of view for your reflection. Although I support the celebration of "traditional Mass" as often as possible, I have realized how good and much needed was Vatican II. Here are my arguments:
1) Even in so called traditional Masses, the use of Gregorian chant is scarce. What is used instead is usually some 17th - 19th century religious music. Quite often Mozart, Bach or someone of such calibre. Please note, I have nothing against Mozart or Bach, but their music is not particulary spiritual. Sitting there on Saturday and listening to mostly Baroque music and watching servers in their 19th century rochets decorated by laces, I realized how vulgar and frivolous Baroque period was. Baroque is a synonym for the lack of taste and it was good, that Vatican II tried to eradicate these worldly elements from the Mass. Church is a house of prayer, not a music hall.
2) The cardinal was dressed in this vulgar, ridiculous, Baroque fashion. With servers holding his long veil and pair of richly decorated gloves, he resembled more a member of nobility, than a slave of God. Don't get me wrong - I do understand the reasoning behind such practise; after all a bishop is a prince among priests and in his earthly status equal to Seraphims in heaven. (can't remember exactly the phrase St. John Chrysostom used). However, such pomp looks slightly unnatural and even self-mocking in our times and therefore it was good, that Vatican II brought simplicity back to the Roman rite.
3) On the other hand, the Mass on Saturday was a good example how a Novus Ordo Mass should look like after "reform of the reform" will be accomplished. Mass served ad Orientem, frequent use of Latin, readings read by males serving in sanctuary and the Holy Communion distributed by priests only and not by women (unfortunately a matter of fact in majority of English parishes today). My last objection would be, that the Gospel was NOT read in English. I think possibility of offering the Mass in native languages of different cultures was a good fruit of Vatican II and this fruit should be preserved and cherished; along with the unifying fruits of the Latin language, of course...
I would welcome your feedback on this matter my readers!

I admit I may seem like some sort of expert—sometimes appearing on national morning news shows and NPR talking about family issues. And, yes, I've written scads of print and Web articles about parenting. But who am I to tell you anything? I don't even know your kids…You do. And that's the whole point.
Mama Know-How was created to delight in what we as women do know—not agonize over what we don't. As quiet as it's kept, we know an awful lot. Thanks to that age-old sleeper hit called instinct. In fact, we mamas have got it going on.
Who Do I Think I Am, Anyway?
A veteran business and features writer, I became an Accidental Parenting Editor soon after the birth of my first child. Since then I've held senior editorial positions at Essence magazine and iVillage. Sometimes I write for Redbook, Health, Parenting, Pregnancy and other magazines as well as websites including MomsLikeMe, Seventh Generation and Healthy Kids.
If you blinked you missed me, but once I was in a commercial for Google Plus (breathe).
Don't Get it Twisted
When I'm not wearing my journalist hat I'm opinionated, fiercely maternal, sometimes ditzy, hormonal and—above all—nobody's fool. Probably a lot like you.
On occasion, I take a break from nagging my kids to clean up after themselves, do their homework or eat more fiber. During those times I can usually be found doing one of three things:
- Watching HGTV
- Blasting either gospel music or old school hip hop tunes (an unlikely combo, perhaps, but you if you don't judge me; I won't judge you).
- Running, kick boxing, or some other form of exercising (it helps me play well with others).
This blog is PR-friendly. I like to do giveaways once in awhile, because who doesn't love winning?

The world has gone mobile. People are gradually shifting from desktop computers to mobile smartphones and tablets. Thus, to ensure great user experience Google started ranking responsive or mobile-friendly websites higher in the search results. The most important user signals are the bounce rate and the click-through rate (CTR). These are important for your SEO, as Google takes these seriously.

Tom Holland Confirms Spider-man Trilogy Plans
Tom Holland recently interviewed with AlloCiné regarding his upcoming feature film Spider-Man: Homecoming where he plays none other than your friendly neighborhood web-slinger, Spider-Man.
While talking with AlloCiné, Holland revealed that a Spider-Man trilogy is underway, stating:
There is still a lot of room for Peter Parker and Spider-Man especially to grow in the next two movies. He's definitely not the finished article by the end of Spider-Man: Homecoming and I really look forward to exploring the different ways he can grow up and go through puberty I guess. It's going to be an exciting couple of movies.
He was then asked to clarify what was meant by "couple of movies", then Holland spilled the beans.
There will be a Spider-Man 2 and 3… Well, now you know! Sorry Marvel, whoops! That's out!
Spider-Man: Homecoming will be swinging into theaters July 7th, 2017, starring Tom Holland (Peter Parker/Spider-Man), Zendaya (Michelle), Robert Downey Jr (Tony Stark), Chris Evans (Captain America), Jon Favreau (Happy Hogan), Donald Glover, and Marisa Tomei (Aunt May).

Singh visits remote state contested by China
February 4, 2008
By Jo Johnson in New Delhi
The Financial Times
February 1 2008
Manmohan Singh on Thursday became the first Indian prime minister to
visit Arunachal Pradesh in nearly a decade, reflecting concern in New
Delhi at persistent Chinese claims to the remote and sparsely-populated
north-eastern state.
Beijing claims 90,000 sq km of land in Arunachal Pradesh, which borders
Tibet, Bhutan and Burma. New Delhi in turn says China is occupying
38,000 sq km of Indian territory in Kashmir illegally ceded to it by
While India and China have recently enjoyed a surge in bilateral trade
and managed to co-ordinate their approach to international climate
change negotiations, political relations remain strained by failure to
settle the border, cause of a brief war in 1962.
During his two-day visit to a state whose development has lagged far
behind that of Tibet, Mr Singh will inaugurate two hydroelectric plants
and lay the foundation stone of a new parliament building in Itanagar,
the capital of Arunachal Pradesh
"I sincerely hope that like the sun, Arunachal Pradesh will rise from
the east as a new star and become one of the best regions of our
country," he said, addressing a public meeting in Hindi in Itanagar, the
state capital.
The visit comes two weeks after Mr Singh became the first Indian prime
minister in five years to travel to China. Special representatives held
talks on the border on the sidelines of the official visit, with neither
side claiming any real progress.
"The Chinese are stalling on the border talks because they think that
time is on their side," said Satish Chandra, who served as India's
former deputy National Security Adviser between 1999 and 2005.
"With their rates of growth, they know they'll assume big power status
before India does. No one has any idea what China will be like when it's
a great power. Maybe they feel it's a good idea to keep India off balance."
India last May cancelled a confidence-building visit to China by 107
elite civil servants after China denied a visa to an official from
Arunachal Pradesh on the grounds that he was "Chinese" and therefore did
not need one.
On the eve of Mr Singh's visit to China on January 13-15, Pranab
Mukherjee, India's foreign minister, admitted that Chinese armed forces
had been making incursions across the de facto border.
"We immediately take it up. Mechanisms have been established through
which we address this type of problem," Mr Mukherjee told CNN-IBN, a
news channel. "There is nothing to be worried at this point of time."
Mr Mukherjee acknowledged that infrastructure across the border in Tibet
was "much superior to that on our side. It's a known fact. That's why we
have decided that we should also build up the roads and other types of
infrastructural facilities."
Prime ministerial visits to Arunachal Pradesh have been so infrequent in
part because New Delhi has been keen not to antagonise the Chinese
leadership during long-running talks to resolve their outstanding border
dispute, some analysts believe.
B.G. Verghese, an expert on the north-east, said the rarity of prime
ministerial visits to Arunachal Pradesh reflected less sensitivities
relating to the border dispute than the difficulty of reaching a
Himalayan state that lacks useable airstrips.
Mr Singh on Thursday promised the state's estimated 1m inhabitants a
number of airports, a trans-state two-lane "highway" and a central
government-subsidised helicopter service to Guwahati.
Internet down
Internet connections from India to Cairo were severely disrupted on
Thursday after undersea cables were damaged in the Mediterranean on
Tuesday, with some estimating it could take up to 10 days to restore
services to normal, Joe Leahy reports from Mumbai.
India's main outsourcing companies, which rely on internet connections
to service their overseas customers, said they had not been badly hit,
but individual consumers in the subcontinent reported severe
disruptions. It was not immediately clear how the cables were damaged.

House 035
The site is located in greenbelt countryside and comprises a small group of agricultural buildings. The brief for the Manchester based architects, Andrew Wallace, involved the conversion of the grade two listed barn into a four bedroom family residence with a new building to house a swimming pool attached, as well as the refurbishment of the adjacent farmhouse as a residence for a younger family member.
Large areas of glazing were introduced to create 'voids' that reflect the character and appearance of an open barn or agricultural shed. These new glazing elements respect the original features of the existing while allowing light deep into the barn to suit modern living.
Existing architectural archaeology such as the stone arched openings and timber roof trusses within the main building have been retained; where new elements are inserted they appear light, modern and subservient to the existing.
The overall concept for both buildings was to deal with the restoration of listed buildings of considerable character in a sympathetic but imaginative way, using a mixture of modern and traditional materials and forms to produce exciting and attractive contemporary buildings that sit comfortably on the site.

If you have read my last posts you know that I went to a states robotics competition this saturday with my team. At this competition there were the top FTC teams in massachusetts and we were lucky enough to be one of them. This is are first year doing this competition so going into this season over the summer we thought we would get destroyed and it would be a learning experience for next year. Little did we know that we would be one of the top 32 teams in massachusetts. To do well you either need to be at the top or just be picked by one at the top because the top teams pick members to alliance with for the elimination rounds. In the beginning of the day our robot did not perform as well has we would have hoped so we did not make it to the top of the standings, which was a problem because we were not on the radar of the good teams. Luckily enough the team that we partnered at the previous competition was at the top and they knew what we could do and that we could work together well. So they ended up picking us which made our day go from bad to really good but it does not stop there. We did well with are alliance and made it to the finals against both of the winners from last year, we gave them a run for their money but could not pull it out and the final game of a best of three. We ended up second winning two other awards so we thought we were successful, but after all the awards were handed out they asked the coaches from 7 teams to come to the desk and we were called. I already knew what it was, but my team did not already knew. I knew because they needed to ask our coaches if we could go to Scranton pennsylvania to represent Massachusetts in the NE regional qualifier!

Change Island
Hyper Island
Change is about raising awareness about yourself and your surroundings. Technology changes society, but it is neutral. The question is how do we want to use it? Change is always a decision. A choice of who we want to be.
We believe that creativity is magic, and that magic can be a force for positive social change. The World needs people who believe that magic is real and who know that our imagination has the power to transform our lives, communities and organisations!
There are some unknowns that we need to clearify and for that we plan a 1 day prototype event with 25 change makers and companies to see if we can answer some practical questions such as food, material and accomomodation. We also need to get feedback from our participants on content and valuable take aways. This prototyp will be a low budget event and from the learnings taken from this we can scale up.
For the 3 day event we aim to reach for approx 600 active participants and 2000 visitors. We want innovation and change to happen during the days and we are going to create tools to measure the success. The changes will have happened in peoples and organiations mindsets in how we interact, communicate and are a part of change. The festival will become a tradition and an important happening for the southern region of Sweden. It will attract more people and scale up organically.
We are a project group of 4 with a projectleader that works with strategy, goals, milestones and meetings on a daily basis. We have passed phase 1&2 which was purpose, goals, definition, creating a manifesto to lean against and we are now entering phase 3 which is preparing to run a one day prototype event in april that will give us a lot of insights and create clarity around the concept. 25 participants will meet for a day and explore what will happen at the big event in september but condensed. With these learnings and more concrete financial backing we will enter phase 4 which is the actual details and execution of a full scale festival. In this phase we will build an online platform for registration and sharing, we will arrange and finalize all applications and permits.
We are aiming to mix change makers, innovators and artists with bigger co operations and students to facilitate change. The event is open to the public and we are hoping to attract a diverse & curious audience.
On change island there is no right or wrong-there is no judgement and its not an innovation summit because we are not designing and organising everything. We're not telling people what to do. We're inviting them to do it with us.
The festivals uniqueness also lies in it's location (the island of stumholmen), challenging it's participants and audience to interact and exchange in new ways.

Toys play a role in the development and growth of children who always like to play. If you're a parent, it helps to buy your kids toys that foster fun while educating and without posing any harm. For example, you may consider wood toys for kids since they're both fun and educative for kids. Your little ones will grow fine with wood toys, and here's why:
Development Perks
Toy stores are filled with modern hi-tech products that are merely enjoyment and pastime for kids. These toys may also be very noisy and extremely stimulating. But kids playing with wood toys appear to be more imaginative. With these toys, kids are able to participate in meaningful play, building their problem-solving and cognitive capabilities. Typically, children find such attained abilities important in their while life. The natural surface texture of wood toys triggers a child's senses, igniting desire for contact and discovery. A good example is wooden blocks which kids can play with while building architectural structures or arranging the alphabet.
Environmental Merits
Wood is great for our planet, so wooden toys pose no threat to the natural ecosystem. Such high-quality toys are made from biodegradable materials or sources that can be recycled.
To help protect the environment, wood toy makers have several options available. For example, they may source their wood from plantations where rubber trees are recycled. Fully-harvested rubber trees are removed, paving the way for planting new ones and maintaining a cycle in the farms. The old rubber trees will naturally decay, adding no harm to the surrounding soil, water, or air. To read more about the benefits of buying wooden toys for kids, go to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xoHZQMrv2Sw.
Also, these wood blocks are crafted from tree farms, and so, natural forests remain unharmed, which is good for the planet. As such, you're helping protect the ecosystem every time you choose to buy wooden growth charts rather than plastic toys.
Health and Safety Benefits
Unlike other substances that are utilized in the manufacture of toys for babies, wood is 100% organic and a much safer option. No hazardous chemicals with potentially negative health effects are used in the preparation of wood for making baby toys. Keep that in mind since kids have a tendency to stick their play items into their mouth.
For example, a teething baby will have an object in their mouth for extended periods or very often as they try to soothe their sore gums. So, it's easy to understand why organic, green toys are viewed safer for kids to use on their gums. For sure, wood teethers will impress most parents.
When considering what to buy between wooden toys and synthetics like plastics, an evaluation of the benefits at stake will help you decide wisely. Ultimately, wooden toys will win because they're harmless.

WASHINGTON – With President Trump set to take center stage during the "Salute to America" celebration at the Lincoln Memorial, there's a new production plot twist to the Independence Day celebration – one that could draw the Commander-In-Chief's ire.
U.S.S. John McCain T-shirts.
Thousands of them.
Distributed for free, by veterans.
Handed to revelers before the president addresses the nation, on the Fourth of July.
The progressive group VoteVets.org and apparel company Rags of Honor made the announcement Friday, not yet a month after a now infamous imbroglio involving Mr. Trump and the Navy destroyer named after three generations of the McCain Family.
Before the president addressed sailors based in Yokosuka, Japan, a White House email directed the U.S.S. John McCain to be kept out of sight. Mr. Trump and top Pentagon officials denied knowledge of the matter, blaming the communication on lower-level staff who wanted to please the president.
The T-shirts at the center of a potential fashion feud, undoubtedly set to face more MAGA hats than in years past, feature an image of the ship and its nickname printed in bold type, "Big Bad John."
Veterans will gather outside the White House on July 4, then hand out the shirts across the National Mall before sunset, a spokesperson for Rags of Honor said.
"Whether it was Sen. McCain, his father, his grandfather or his sons, the McCain family has given more to this country than most," said Mark Doyle, founder of Rags of Honor. "And America's birthday seems like a great time to honor that service and sacrifice."
The two groups are not marketing the shirts as an explicit way to troll the president, but the subject matter and timing are unmistakable.
Shirts will also be handed out to members of the House and Senate before the festivities begin. There are no plans, as of now, to deliver the shirts to the White House.

Keywords: CouchDB - Amazon Web Services - Technical issue - CredentialsDescription: It took me several hours to diagnose this critical security flaw, and I've tracked it down to the Bitnami config being based on CouchDB 2.0 and CouchDB 2.1 behaving differently due to a major bug. Here's my story...
I installed a Bitnami image of CouchDB 2.1.1 on AWS. My project is early in development, so there's (luckily) no critical data in the database yet. I left it pretty insecure initially, but now I'm getting closer to shipping my app so I started digging into CouchDB security (HTTPS, anonymous access, etc.).
After a few weeks or running CouchDB with lazy security I was browsing the CouchDB web interface and I noticed there were 2 new _users documents I hadn't created. I scratched my head. I Googled the usernames I found in my CouchDB and after lots of internet digging found related accounts on hacker/cracking forums. This was alarming. Sure, somebody could have port sniffed that I was running PouchDB on the default port without HTTPS, but how were they able to insert a record into _users? I thought I had ensure anonymous access was disabled. So I started trying to replicate.
With data.json containing:
"_id": "org.couchdb.user:jim3",
"type": "user",
"name": "jim3",
"roles": []
And then running:
$ curl -s -X PUT "http://<ip-address>:5984/_users/org.couchdb.user:jim3" -d "@data.json"
I'm able to create a user without any authentication. This is all while having this in my CouchDB config:
require_valid_user = true
Based on the docs, its seems this option should disable anonymous access to CouchDB, but it doesn't. Then I find this horrible CouchDB bug. In the major bug report, it's described that couch_httpd_auth.require_valid_user in Couch 1.6.1 has changed to chttpd.require_valid_user in Couch 2, but the default.ini for Couch 2 wasn't updated. This was finally fixed in Couch 2.1 (by fixing the documentation).
The problem with Bitnami is: they're shipping a Couch 1.6 version of the config with Couch 2 version of the software. Because this was poorly documented at the time, it's a mistake that falls mostly on the Couch docs, but it should be fixed now in Bitnami's config. Many users probably think they've disabled anonymous access but haven't.
Please update the Bitnami CouchDB config to be based on the 2.1+ default config vs. the 2.0 default config. This is a critical security update.
To make matters worse, when people Google for anything involving CouchDB docs (i.e. couchdb require_valid_user), the incorrect 2.0.0 docs always rank highest, meaning a lot of people are lining up Bitnami's out-of-date config with out-of-date docs and thinking it's setup right without testing it.
To be clear: The fix is to follow the CouchDB 2.1.1 docs and to put require_valid_user = true in the [chttpd] and [couch_httpd_auth] sections.
require_valid_user = true
To give a sense of gravity for how dangerous this is, please read this: https://www.pcworld.com/article/3159527/security/attackers-start-wiping-data-from-couchdb-and-hadoop-databases.html
Luckily for me this was a project database with no data in it.
Hi @benstandefer
Thanks for investigating this issue and reporting it.
You are right about we are not adding "require_valid_user" for the [chttpd] section and we are working on releasing a new version as soon as possible.
The issue is not in the "default.ini" file, we checked we are using the default files from CouchDB official source code. CouchDB recommends to not change that file http://docs.couchdb.org/en/stable/config/intro.html so Bitnami solutions only change the "local.ini" file. We also checked we are not shipping old config files.
Thanks again, we will let you know when the new version is released.
We already relased a new CouchDB version with the "chttpd" authentication enabled: 2.1.1-2 You can launch the new AWS image from https://bitnami.com/stack/couchdb/cloud/aws
The AWS Marketplace could take some time to be updated but you can click in the Community AMI and launch it directly from the AMI ID "ami-4c9ba336".
Thanks again for your feedback! Keep us in the loop if you have any questions or suggestions.
@beltran1 Thanks for the quick response. I really appreciate it. This is the right thing to do.
Couch defaulting its permissions to all open makes it especially tricky for people like y'all. Again, thanks for responding quickly to this.
