La Latina is an authentic fragment of Madrid's history, being the oldest area of the city. You can easily notice this as you start strolling around the narrow roads surrounded by buildings. Although most of the buildings are 19th century constructions, they are placed on sites of previously built buildings, so the design is somehow similar.
For tapas in Madrid, this is the place. There are a lot of private://best" places for tapas around the area, so most of the bets are fine, but you´ll find your own favorite when trying some plates. Most of the time you will be satisfied as the Spanish business owners are eager to serve a customer that will recommend them further.
Puerta del Toledo and La Latina are the metro stations where you can easiest to visit La Latina. There are also a number of buses that you can take to reach the area.
The tapas plates are priced at somewhere around EUR 3 and EUR 4.

Title: A mass spectrometry driven proteomics approach identifies new protein families involved in regeneration
Mario Looso has completed his Ph.D at the Justus Liebig University of Giessen in 2010. He is head of Bioinformatics and IT Service Facility at the Max Planck Institute for Heart and Lung research, working in the interdisciplinary field of proteomics, genomics and transcriptomics. He developed methods to combine parallel sequencing followed by the novo assemblies and LC-MS based proteomics approaches. This approach was used to characterize proteomes of niche models.
Currently, a small panel of organisms such as the mouse, rat or zebrafish is used to answer a wide range of scientific questions. Beside this group of standard models other organisms exist (niche model organisms), that lack genetic background data in terms of sequences and effective methods for genetic manipulations. However, some of these niche models possess remarkable capabilities. One obvious example is regeneration research, where the choice of model organisms is widely restricted by the fact that only very few organisms are able to fully regenerate tissues in vivo. The green newt Notophthalmus viridescens is well known for its regenerative capabilities. Although it is able to regenerate nervous system, optic lens, appendages and heart, the lack of sequence information has severely hampered the investigation of the underlying molecular mechanisms (<150 protein sequences are listed at NCBI). Recent high throughput screenings on the transcriptome and proteome level and their bioinformatical combination provided striking new insights into the control of regeneration. We used a de novo assembled transcriptome following massive parallel sequencing for peptide identifications in a LC-MS based proteomics screening on regenerating tissue. The combination of these HT techniques allowed us to identify completely new proteins and protein families involved in regeneration, lacking any counterpart in standard model organisms. Further, a pSILAC based modification of our approach enabled us to quantify the new proteins, resulting in the identification of a new growth factor family member (CCNs) in the regenerating heart

BAM Nuttall
Gender Inequality
BAM Nuttall is working hard to tackle the problems of gender inequality head on. It's not easy, because of the prejudices that still exist within a traditionally male-dominated industry.
We produced this video with the help of BAM Nuttall employees and their children to drive home the message that change won't happen on its own; everyone needs to do something about gender inequality within the industry – for the sake of their children's future.
The video made a huge impact when it was first shown at the company's annual road show.

Opposition Forum for Democratic Change FDC has described the state of the nation address by the sitting president Yoweri Kagutta Museveni as disappointing, historic rhetoric, pure nothing based on blame game.
This has been said by the party president Engineer Patrick Amuriat Oboi during his address to the media at the party headquarters in Najjankumbi.
He blamed president Museveni for boasting of the population growth yet his government has failed to cater for its basic needs like good health care, education, employment and provision of electricity at a low cost and to further insult Ugandans whose biggest population can not afford two meals in the day with the success of his family by bragging that his daughters are only enjoying his wealth since he planned for his family well.
Amuriat also said that president's attack on the international community and the opposition was so misguided since non of the two injects in money into the riots and to malign Uganda.
It's on this note that Amuriat requested for evidence from president Museveni on his assertation or issue an apology incase he fails to provide evidence.
He said that by the president attacking the international community he was running away from accountability since the donors will directly contribute seven trillions out of the 30 trillion of this year's budget.
Amuriat further said that president failed to address the real problems of the tired and angry population that's frustrated due to lack of achievement in whatever they do while many can not find jobs.

What Is A Neurobehavioral Disorder?
"Neurobehavioral" refers to the type of behavioral problems that are associated with brain disorders. It is a term frequently used to describe the serious behavioral problems often seen after traumatic brain injury. For example, explosive rage behavior, impulse control problems, mood swings, and poor judgment are neurobehavioral problems. However, this term also applies to developmental brain problems that are the result of fetal exposure to drugs or alcohol (e.g.; fetal alcohol syndrome, crack babies, etc.), or other early brain impairments such as anoxia at birth or shaken child syndrome. When these brain impaired children become adolescents, they sometimes display the same neurobehavioral problems seen in traumatic brain injury cases, including violent temper and very poor impulse control. Unfortunately, traditional psychiatric treatment has been ineffective with these neurobehavioral disorders. The brain problem is a barrier to successful counseling, and typical psychiatric medicin

I know, I am weird. I read federal government financial statements.
September 2016 has been released. The quick look shows payroll taxes collected in September amounted to $93 billion. Social Security outlays $77 billion. Medicare outlays $69 billion. Let me do the math for you.
$ 93 billion in from Social Security and Medicare taxes
-77 billion in Social Security outlays
-69 billion in Medicare outlays
-146 billion out total
$ -53 billion
That is $53 billion more out than in. Shortage. Whatever.
Ok. You say September was a fluke. As it happens, September is the end of the federal government fiscal year. So they have the 12 months in the statements also.
$1,115 billion in from SS and Medi taxes. That reads, one trillion, one hundred fifteen billion dollars
-916 billion out to Social Security
-595 billion out to Medicare
-1,511 billion out for these two
$-396 billion
Do you mind if I round that up a little to $400 billion dollars short in fiscal 2016? Do you know why you thought that the so called trust funds were solvent?
Down in the thick of the financial statements is the centers for Medicare and Medicaid spent $1.4 trillion for the year. Last year they spent $1.3 trillion. That is a 7% increase. Over the last couple of decades the annual increase has averaged 9% a year (according to Alan Greenspan). So 2016 was better.
Lets say they can continue with only a 7% increase each year disregarding all the people turning 65 and going on Medicare, not to even mention the expanding Medicaid rolls due to the massive Mexican birth rate.
In 5 years the centers of Medicare and Medicaid will spend $564 billion more dollars in the year 2021. If the trend is held at 9% then they will spend $754 billion more in the year 2021.
But not to worry. Things always work out. The increase can be paid for by increasing taxes, cutting the defense budget, or Magic ( https://lessclear.blogspot.com/2016/11/we-grew-up-in-magical-times.html ), or a combination of them all. And, the economy could grow really really fast over the next 5 years which would increase the tax income naturally.

Agrarian Development in India Since Independence!
In 1947, when India attained independence, it was in a very bad shape – economically, socially and politically. It was then an underdeveloped country. Population was rapidly increasing, not commensurate with its agricultural and industrial development. About 30 per cent of India's income comes from the capitalist sector (both public and private), and the remaining from other sources, including the pre-capitalist mode of production relations. The existence of the pre-capitalist relations is a great obstacle in India's economic development. Landlords, moneylenders and kulaks are mainly engaged in this obstructive activity.
About 65 per cent of the total workforce is engaged in agricultural and allied activities, whereas the remaining 35 per cent in industry, trade, commerce, transport, professions, administration, etc. About 10 per cent of the total workforce is engaged in all types of industry. It is clear that India is not highly industrialised. Little industrialisation, low agricultural output, low level of national per capita income, sluggish economic progress and unemployment are continuing in India since independence.
However, India has made considerable progress in the economic field by encouraging green revolution and industrial growth over the last sixty years. Fertilisers, seeds, technological devices, steel and cement plants, nationalisation of banks, credit facilities, subsidies and loans, opening of the Indian market, computerisation and substantial export-import trade are testimony of India's economic progress. However, it has not been able to ensure desired results by way of 'distributive justice'.
Before the British rule in India there was already a complex system of land tenures. The British recognised some elements of the earlier systems of land tenure, and also created new types of landholders and tenants. A class of zamindars was created to work as intermediaries between the British rulers and actual tillers of the land.
The zamindars could be dispossessed by the Raj if they were found failing in the fulfillment of their duties and obligation. The state's right to land was thus protected. The zamindari system created by the British produced a new class which normally supported the Raj. In some parts of India, the mahalwari and rayatwari systems were also introduced.
The land tenure systems, which existed in colonial India, do not exist today anymore. They were abolished in 1950s by the provincial governments. However, legislation on land reforms has not taken into account the vast variability of land tenure systems.
The expected 'equalisation' of the landed and the tenant-cultivator has not come about. The zamindars and the rayats were able to consolidate their position due to faulty legislations and their delayed implementation. Despite such obstacles, land reforms have brought about considerable social change in the countryside.
Both social and economic change and a new form of consciousness are the net gains of the land reforms. The land reforms consisted of (1) the abolition of intermediaries, (2) fixing of ceiling on landholdings, and (3) reorganisation of agriculture through the consolidation of landholdings and modernisation of agricultural practices and production.
The principal agricultural castes have been benefited immensely by the abolition of landlordism in the 1950s and green revolution in the 1.960s and 1970s. The small and marginal peasants and landless agricultural workers have, however, not been benefited to a considerable extent.
A number of state-sponsored programmes through various agencies made provisions for better seeds, fertilisers, irrigation facilities, technical know-how, soil conservation, marketing facilities, etc. As a result of the land reforms, about 20 million tenants-at-will were benefited. However, atrocities on the landless labourers persist even today in many parts of the country.
Agrarian movements against low wages, exploitation and forced evictions by the landlords have brought about some relief to the rural poor. The green revolution has brought about 'mixed' results – both positive and negative. One view is that the rich have become richer. The other view is that green revolution has helped medium and small farmers also in states like Haryana.

New England editorial roundup
The Eagle-Tribune (Mass.), Oct. 16, 2014
A second worker at the Dallas hospital that treated the first Ebola patient diagnosed in the United States has come down with the deadly disease.
And while she should have known better, the worker, identified as Amber Joy Vinson, went to Cleveland and returned on a flight to Dallas despite having a low-grade fever. She checked into the hospital with Ebola symptoms the next day.
Now, the Centers for Disease Control is trying to contact all 132 passengers on the Frontier Airlines flight. The aircraft made five additional flights after the Cleveland-Dallas trip. Patients infected with Ebola become contagious after they begin exhibiting symptoms. The virus is spread through contact with bodily fluids and can remain alive on surfaces outside the human body for several hours.
From such compounding of small errors, mistakes and lapses in judgment, epidemics are born.
An NBC news cameraman contracted Ebola while on assignment in Liberia. He is currently under treatment in Nebraska, one of just four hospitals in the U.S. with a complete biocontainment unit. Such a facility makes it unlikely this patient, Ashoka Mukpo, will pass his infection on to anyone else. But what of the time before Mukpo was placed in biocontainment?
NBC News Medical Editor Dr. Nancy Snyderman worked with Mukpo briefly in Liberia. She placed herself in voluntary quarantine at her home in New Jersey. Those who come into contact with infectious Ebola patients should isolate themselves for 21 days to see if symptoms develop. But recently, Dr. Snyderman broke that self-imposed quarantine to make a pick-up run to a local fast-food outlet.
If a medical doctor will not follow Ebola protocols, how can there be any expectation ordinary citizens will? Indeed, British newspapers report that panic ensued at two hospitals in England as patients walked into emergency rooms reporting Ebola-like symptoms. Staff at one hospital refused to allow the patient on their ward and a doctor declined to go near him. The man was allowed the use of a communal bathroom and kitchen and was permitted to have visitors. Tests later showed he did not have Ebola.
At the Dallas hospital where Ebola patient Thomas Eric Duncan died last week, staff had no training in Ebola containment other than a voluntary seminar. They picked up their precautionary procedures as they went along, a CDC spokesman said.
"They kept adding more protective equipment as the patient (Duncan) deteriorated. They had masks first, then face shields, then the positive-pressure respirator. They added a second pair of gloves," Pierre Rollin, a CDC epidemiologist, told The Washington Post.
The nation's largest nurses' union, National Nurses United, which does not represent the nurses at Texas Health Presbyterian, said Duncan, while vomiting and experiencing diarrhea, was left in open areas of the emergency room for hours. Later, materials infected by Duncan piled up "to the ceiling" at the hospital, The Associated Press reported.
President Obama and CDC officials say all the right things in an attempt to calm the American public. But the news that leaks out about the actual performance of the medical community during the earliest stages of this crisis does not inspire confidence.
The World Health Organization says we have 60 days from Oct. 1 to get the West African outbreak under control. So far, there have been 9,000 cases of Ebola in West Africa reported with 4,447 deaths. If we fail to control the outbreak within two months, we can expect 10,000 new cases per week, WHO reports.
That is a staggering figure. Given the performance of the U.S. health care system challenged by just a handful of Ebola cases, it is not one that inspires hope.
The Boston Globe, Oct. 17, 2014
Americans are a remarkably generous people when it comes to natural disasters. After the 2010 earthquake in Haiti, private citizens gave an estimated $1.4 billion, according to the Chronicle of Philanthropy. An estimated $2 billion poured in to help those displaced by the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. But when it comes to man-made disasters, the giving drops considerably. The Syrian civil war has generated so few private donations that they aren't even being tracked, even though Syria's refugee population � some 3.6 million people � is roughly double the number displaced in Haiti or after the Asian tsunami. For humanitarian reasons and for the long-term security of a volatile region, American donors must not overlook the plight of displaced Syrians.
"We raised more in three days for the typhoon in the Philippines than we have raised in three years for the civil war in Syria," said Jeremy Barnicle, spokesman for Mercy Corps, a humanitarian organization that serves more than a million Syrian refugees. Part of the seeming lack of empathy stems from the fact that victims of natural disasters are innocent by definition, while victims of a civil war may have played some role in their fate. The fact that the war in Syria seems so short on "good guys" exacerbates the issue, as does the fact that there's no end in sight.
Nonetheless, more must be done to aid Syrian refugees, the vast majority of whom played no part in their country's unraveling. Wars can be even more devastating for future generations than earthquakes and floods are. The conflict in Syria almost certainly will be, if youth are left to languish in refugee camps. Half a century ago, the Palestinian refugee crisis gave birth to militant movements that played a destabilizing role in Jordan, where they attempted to assassinate the king, and Lebanon, where they helped spark a civil war. Today, the 400,000 adolescents who have been displaced from Syria and currently receive little assistance could play the same destabilizing role in the region.
It is worth noting that the mere presence of the refugees taxes the already fragile communities that host them. In a few short years, the population of Lebanon jumped from 4 million people to more than 5 million, with the arrival of more than a million refugees. Jordan, a country of about 8 million people, hosts 600,000 Syrian refugees. The Za'atari refugee camp in Jordan, temporary home to some 80,000, is now Jordan's fourth largest city. Such an influx would be taxing for any country, but it's especially hard for those that were already struggling to deliver services to their own citizens. Disputes over water, jobs, and housing erupt every day.
Humanitarian organizations like Oxfam and Mercy Corps are playing a crucial role in ensuring that tension don't boil over into new conflicts. Mercy Corps, one of the few US aid organizations with a history of working in Syria, provides food and other support to Syrian kids in Lebanon. In Jordan, the group has been upgrading local municipal water infrastructure. Much of that good work has been funded by U.S. taxpayers, through a grant from the U.S. Agency for International Development.
The U.S. government has given nearly $3 billion to help Syrian refugees and host communities since 2012. That's a generous amount. But private donations, which provide groups like Oxfam and Mercy Corps with the flexibility to do more nimble and responsive programming, lag far behind � and are sorely needed.

The Leviathans are an ancient aquatic race that dominated the galaxy in the time before the Reapers. Proud and aloof, they regard themselves as the galaxy's first and only apex race, and think of other species as mere tools meant to serve them. With the advent of the Reapers, the Leviathans were forced into hiding to preserve themselves, and were content to observe the Reapers' harvests while surreptitiously erasing any evidence of their existence over the course of hundreds of millions of years.
Biology Edit
Like the Reapers that were designed after them, the Leviathans are massive in size and possess a resemblance to Earth cuttlefish or squid. Two sets of three eyes are embedded symmetrically on the lower ventral surface of the body. Several tentacle-like appendages extend below the body and from the sides. The Leviathans' exterior is covered in bony, heavily ridged plates. As Leviathans are aquatic, it is believed that they can breathe oxygenated water and their bodies can withstand both the extreme pressure of ocean depths and the lesser pressure of coastal areas. Members of the race have been witnessed at depths of over 3200 meters.
The Leviathans possess the natural ability to influence the behaviors of lesser-minded organisms to the point of physical and mental control, an effect that is similar to indoctrination. They can use this ability to communicate with other beings in a manner similar to telepathy, as well as to turn them into thralls. The exact mechanics of this ability are unknown, but it has been compared to the rachni's theorized ability to communicate using an organic quantum entanglement communicator analogue that stimulates neural activity. Over-exertion of this mind-control ability causes nosebleeds in humans, and in extreme cases can lead to brain damage and death.
It is possible that the Leviathans further enhanced themselves cybernetically, allowing them to use element zero to travel through space and breathe air with the use of . They might even have modified themselves with biotic amplifiers. In addition, their faster-than-lightcommunication pulses require precise control with technology completely unknown to modern science.

Georgia inmate Marcus Wellons was put to death late Tuesday for the 1989 rape and murder of a Cobb County teenager in the state's first execution where the source of its lethal-injection drug was cloaked in secrecy.
Wellons' execution received heightened scrutiny because it was the first one in the country to be carried out since a botched execution occurred in Oklahoma seven weeks ago.
That incident ratcheted up the debate over the lethal-injection process and the use of made-to-order drugs produced by undisclosed compounding pharmacies. Even a federal appeals court judge who declined to halt the execution Tuesday cited what happened in Oklahoma as a reason why Georgia should not have a lethal-injection secrecy law.
Wellons, 58, was pronounced dead at 11:56 p.m. after his final appeals were denied by the U.S. Supreme Court.
Wellons apologized to the family of India Roberts the teenager he was convicted of killing and said, "I ask and hope they will find peace in my death."
He thanked his family and friends for their love and prayers and added, "I'm going home to be with Jesus."
Wellons hummed as prayer was being said and as the warden read the death warrant. Otherwise there was little movement visible as he lay on the gurney. He was seen to exhale a couple of times before his body seemed to quiver and then there was no more movement.
Three minutes before Wellons was declared dead a nurse standing to his left was seen asking one of the corrections officers if he was ok, just before the officer fainted.
In 1993, a Cobb County jury sentenced Wellons to death for the rape and murder of 15-year-old India Roberts in the Vinings townhouse of Wellons' girlfriend. Wellons was supposed to be moving out of the townhouse when he abducted India as she was walking to her school bus stop the morning of Aug. 31, 1989. She was believed to have been strangled with a telephone cord.
Wellons' trial became a focus of national attention in 2010 when the U.S. Supreme Court ordered a hearing because one of Wellons' jurors gave a penis-shaped chocolate to the judge and another juror gave breast-shaped chocolates to the courthouse bailiff shortly after the verdict. After a review, the federal appeals court said that while the gifts were "tasteless and inappropriate," Wellons did not deserve a new trial because they played no part in the jury's deliberations.
This week, Wellons' case was in the spotlight again because he was to become the first Georgia inmate put to death with a compounded sedative made specifically for his execution. A state law passed last year shields the public — and even the courts — from knowing the identity of the compounding pharmacy, the qualifications of the execution team and details about the lethal-injection drug, pentobarbital. Wellons' execution was set just days after the state Supreme Court rejected a challenge to the secrecy law in a 5-2 decision issued last month.
Wellons' attorneys had argued that the recently botched execution in Oklahoma and the lack of oversight of compounding pharmacies presented real risks that Wellons could suffer significant pain during his execution.
On April 29, condemned Oklahoma inmate Clayton Derrell Lockett writhed, gasped and struggled to lift his head after he had been declared unconscious on the lethal-injection gurney. Prison officials tried to stop the execution, but Lockett died of a massive heart attack.
A preliminary report released last week concluded that the IV line that was supposed to deliver the drugs had been improperly placed. The doctor who did the autopsy has asked for additional information to complete his report but was denied because of Oklahoma's secrecy law regarding lethal injections.
Georgia has argued that it needs to protect the identities of lethal-injection drug providers to ensure the Department of Corrections can carry out executions. Public pressure has led pharmaceutical companies worldwide to refuse to sell such drugs to states for executions.
Georgia initially used a three-drug cocktail but it had to change its protocols to using only one — a massive dose of pentobarbital, a sedative also used to euthanize animals. The state then had to make another change, turning to a compounding pharmacy, when it was still unable to obtain the drug.
On Tuesday, a three-judge panel of the federal appeals court in Atlanta unanimously declined to stop Wellons' execution. The court said Wellons failed to clear a legal threshold by showing that the lethal-injection protocol to be used in his execution created a "demonstrated risk of severe pain that is substantial when compared to the known alternatives."
But Judge Charles Wilson, writing separately, expressed concern over the state's secrecy law. How could Wellons, the judge asked, show that he faced a risk of needless pain and suffering "when the state has passed a law prohibiting him from learning about the compound it plans to use to execute him?"
Wilson questioned the need to keep information about the lethal-injection process concealed from the public and the courts, "especially given the recent much-publicized botched execution in Oklahoma."
"Unless judges have information about the specific nature of a method of execution," Wilson wrote, "we cannot fulfill our constitutional role of determining whether a state's method of execution violates the Eighth Amendment's prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment before it becomes too late."

Thankfully there hasn't been a day I regretted the purchase. So far months of trouble free motoring (more than I can say for my GTI), and a car that is very individual in looks.
Once you join the Mini family, it's somewhat of a cult. You spot them everywhere, looking at variations and colours. Needless to say I was fairly excited at the thought of a Mini Coupe. This said, I didn't really understand the point as the Cooper S is about as much of a Coupe as no rear seats will allow.
I haven't liked the Coupe's styling since I first saw pics of it. That "backwards cap" roof looks as bad as it would on a gangly teenager, and the front is indistinguishable from the standard Cooper. What's the point there folks? So from the outside we're already on the back foot. Speaking of the back, there's a automatic "wing" that should help with downforce at speed, or with "douche" rating in parking lots.
Get in, expecting anything but the standard Mini and you'll be … well … right on the money. Nothing has changed, except those back seats are now gone, and the roof is a lot closer. Claustrophobia sets in, and fast. The view out the back is similar to that from C-Max prison cell. Numerous tiny little windows make up the view out the rear and that folks, means there are lots of little plastic bits. Lots of little plastic bits means lots of rattling, and lots of rattling means screaming children. SO much so, that I thought there was a box of rocks loose in the boot. The view really is too restricted, I got slightly panicky trying to pull out of the petrol station because no matter how much neck turning happened I couldn't see the other cars. You sit (what feels) even more low down in the Coupe, and the tiny windows make for an interesting time in traffic. It's just too impractical like that if your'e driving it every day. That said the boot size is actually bigger. Meh.
I drove the S, in automatic, without paddles on the steering wheel. Not a fan of the auto, a mini should be manual, end of story. Without flappy paddles, even worse.
I pull out the gas station, gun it into a tight right hander and that oh so familiar Mini smile returns. Here's the crack coccaine people. Wider track, stiffened suspension and that familiar 135kW turbocharged engine. It is a considerably different drive from the normal Cooper S. You feel like the whole car works better together, instead of the front pulling things around, now the back feels like it too is playing a part, with a more planted feel. This said, as IF it could get any better. It literally feels like it's cornering on rails. It feels like the chassis could definitely do with some more power. So the JCW would be a welcome addition.
Luckily I got the chance to take the JCW Roadster (that's the Coupe Cabriolet – 2 seats and no roof) around Kyalami in the recent #MiniYourNight event. A fantastic night time driving event surprise around the track. Cutting straight to the errrm… chase … the JCW version is the hottest model of the Roadster range, producing 155kW from the same engine with some technical and electronic mods. 0-100km/h in 6.5seconds means it's the fastest Mini Roadster and the only spec you should purchase. Taking off and you immediately notice the difference in exhaust note from the JCW, also the suspension has been stiffened even more. The optional wind deflector was fitted which keeps wind noise to a minimum and found that the interior wasn't rushing with wind, which was a good sign.
Unfortunately the cloth roof isn't electrically operated and needs manual operation to put up and down. Oldschool. The JCW pack also features an aerodynamic body kit which include larger rims, front and rear aprons and side skirts. Most importantly, due to the increase in power, the Electronic Differential Lock Control (EDL) is standard on the JCW and helps keep maximum power to the front wheels when cornering. Around Kyalami it was heaps of fun – just enough power and heaps of grip, the Roadster was easy to control, getting right onto the red and white, and made for exciting driving through the slalom track devised on the straights. With a slightly longer wheels base the car felt a lot more composed than the standard Cooper S, and even with the roof off, most drivers would not notice the stiffness sacrifices on the track. The 6 speed manual gearbox was typical mini stuff (a joy to use) and overall the JCW kept big smiles on the faces with easy turn in ability, an eager engine and heaps of grip through the corners. Had a smile on my face all the way round.
Sadly, as with the Coupe, the Roadster's windscreen rack had quite a few rattles, and made the view through the rear view mirror rather blurry. A problem with a lot of convertibles, but again something that they couldn't overcome in the Mini. Where the Roadster does claim a win is in the looks department. With that cap off, and the roof down, it's definitely a more balanced look, and considering the back seats are out you get more space in the boot, and that makes it a real roadster… better than a tiny 4 seater convertible in my books.
Would I buy either of them
For R335K Cooper Coupe S Steptronic, pre options – the claustrophobic interior, rattling rear, and what looks like a normal Cooper from the front, I can't see the point. Yes it handles better than any other Mini, but the sacrifices for that joy is giving too much compromise considering you can get what is a more balanced vehicle in the Cooper S.
If it's open top motoring you're after, I'd probably recommend the Roadster over the Cooper S Convertible, considering the more focused 2 seater approach, and it being a much better looking car – it is however pricey over R400 000 for the JCW edition (again pre options).

Singapore is a city of food, with just $2 I'm sure you could get a decent meal, don't expect healthy because healthy food cost a lot over here. When I stumble upon something moderately healthy I would have it almost every other day if I am to lazy to pack home cook food. I would pay for my protein (meat, fish, etc) and the bulk of my expenditure is basically food, but hey I am making sure in the long run I do not have to invest in healthcare due to years of unhealthy food and clog arteries.
Here are some of my current favorite eateries to visit!

Erik's Sleeve
Erik's Sleeve
I first met Erik 2015 in Denmark. We began the sleeve with a mark depiction of Odin on Erik's left upper arm. A few years later we build up the design with coiling Urnes dragons. Dragons/wyrms in the ancient Norse, like most ancient cultures, where believed to be dangerous creatures but powerful and full of mystery. only the brave would confront them..brave men like Ragnar Lothrok.
In the tales, Ragnar earns the name Lothbrok, by preparing himself a pair of furry breeches and doused them in tar so when he attacks the serpent, its venom could not pierce his clothing and poison him. this is that Lothrok means: furry breeches.
Erik, I still hope I can meet you out in the East on your adventures before you return to Sweden! 😉

Unfortuitously, being dedicated to Mom's tits, I tripped on the line of the pool vacuum. Needless to say, I fell into the water. When hiking out, I was certain a number of Mom's fun was at my expense. My trunks were plastered to my human body and my Mom inspired chubby was on display. I left the poolside area as quickly that you can using refuge within my room. Later that time, having dry down, I was sleeping on my bed, just carrying briefs, texting my pals and playing audio with my headset on. Finding a display from the part of my attention, I turned to see my mom standing in the doorway. I don't understand how long she had been ranking there. Her look was below my eyes. Was she examining me out? Wondering if that has been actually possible seeme n to breathe life in to my wang since it began to develop some more.
That's one warm momma! he explained pointing her out. That girl identifies MILF, claimed another.
Sacred fuck, men, that is my mother! Everyone viewed each other in varying degrees of distress before scuttling away. Strolling as though she were on a model's runway, Mummy came up to me. My eyes opened by the inventors, I had to acknowledge using their characterization of her as a MILF. From that morning onward, I sought out options to see my MILF. It did not subject if she were in washing suits or dresses and gowns, I looked over her as a woman and perhaps not a mom in the absolute most surreptitious manner I could. Whenever she was out and I was home alone, I'd also discover my nose in her lingerie drawer. Literally. The fragrance she wore adhered to her clear laundry. Her organic perfume, or musk, adhered to her used underwear in the clothes hamper.
Even though pressing forty years, she had maintained her figure. Family photos from Mom's youth showed a warm small person with major boobs, long blondish hair to her middle, a flat tummy, and legs that continued forever. Mom was five seven and despite having given start in my experience at the age of nineteen had maintained her figure with only a few pounds included and pouching her tummy. Her tits, 36C's I knew from snooping, felt company however and gravity defying. Mom's legs were long and muscular. Her favorite footwear for conventional situations were four inch stilettoes while she favored restricted, type fitting dresses and dresses for all occasions. She made her nose up at shorts and jeans. Obviously, with her long legs on display, she wore stockings nearly every day. Though through the years I'd observed Mom in several phases of undress, I never truly paid any focus on her in a sexual way. My girl attractions were girls I went to school with, never having any dilemmas finding a girlfriend. It was only in senior school while chatting with some pals following class had been ignored for your day, that I started to see Mother as a sexually attractive creature. Among Sex Free Live my people directed to a warm gothic walking over the parki ng lot within our standard direction.
Training my eyes to meet up her gaze, I saw a twinkle in her attention and a laugh, nearly, on her behalf face. Yes, Mom, proper now. My friends were certainly unhappy to discover that our day enjoyment have been named to a close. They were all mumbling unkind things while they gathered up their points and departed. I was furious with my mother that she'd embarrassed me by sending my buddies away. I was also ashamed that she'd caught people in our moderate sexual flirting. And, I was more embarrassed that she'd found me looking at her company and tight ass. Obtaining myself position alone at poolside, I decided to completely clean the pool. I truly just had two chores across the house. Hold my room clear and keep consitently the share clean in between the weekly visits from the share guy. Very little time transferred before Mom returned to poolside. To my Freelive Sex Cam shock, as well as her guide and tube of sun monitor, Mom was also holding a glass of wine. She really wasn't much of a enthusiast, a reaction to my father's overindulgence, I suppose. And, our wine cups were huge. Father sized, I guess. From personal experience, I realized you may pour plenty of wine into one glass. Enough to make me tipsy anyway. Assuming Mother might still be angry with me, I applied myself to cleaning the pool really energetically. Needless to say, I took glances at my mom putting on the chaise whenever I could. I actually moved round the share to find the best opinions of Mom's breasts.
My last summertime home before school appeared to locate me in a perpetual state of orange balls. It absolutely was the latest summertime in noted record of our area meaning long was spent in the pool. A chance, without doubt, but with my good friends and their friends visiting almost daily, girls seem to locate themselves in a continuing Adultcams opposition to see who'd the skimpiest swimwear, the sexiest human body for the reason that bikini, and probably the most excessive behaviour within their bikinis. Mother arrived on the scene to see what the commotion was all about on one of our earliest times, to catch girls performing pretty dances and blinking us from their point on the diving board. A lot of the people preferred the girls sporting one eyes, baring their pussies for a minute, but I was always a tits and ass man. Broke! Also wearing a bikini, Mom stood at the far end of the share seeing the goings on. The class recognized her almost instantly and called out loud hellos. Needless to say, the amount of raunchiness on the diving board dropped off. I wasn't certain if she had seen the flashings from her angle. Maybe we weren't busted. Following grinning and waving at the class, Mom made around and delivered to the home, signaling me to check out her. I guess she had seen our shenanigans following all.
I guess the way to begin that account is always to present myself. My title is Hector and I am a nineteen year old first year scholar at a university about a two time push from home. The car I drove, a recent year Toyota Mustang was a senior school graduation present from my parents. Fortunately, my family was properly off meaning I'd never experienced economic problems at any time in my own life. My dad was a big opportunity attorney who'd seldom been house when I was growing up. Dad had specific his living to attaining wealth through his career. Alexandros, frequently addressed as Alex, was a sizable, formerly well made person of Greek heritage. Over time, Father had morphed right into a fat slob and a drunk. My mother, Angelika, also of Greek heritage, may have been the actual antithesis of my father. Mother was devoted to the lengthy family, myself, and our home.
Mom wished to apologise for her behaviour earlier and her chasing my friends Online Adult Cams away. I apologised to her for disrespecting her by letting my buddies to do something that way. My mom walked aside of my bed and explained she needed a hug. I sat up at the medial side of the bed and before I possibly could operate, Mother closed the length between us, taking me restricted against her because hug. My hands gone around her as well. Mother was still carrying her bikini from early in the day that day. And, as a result of level huge difference between people, my mind was against Mom's 36C's. She'd her hands about me taking me as firmly as you possibly can against them. My hands were about her waist, hugging her as tightly. I don't know wherever I acquired the nerve to complete it but I turned my mind in order that my lips were against one of her breasts. She got only a little in response to the shock, I guess, and suddenly her butt was in my own hands. Normally enough, I Free Live Chat Porn squeezed her butt cheeks.
She was awaiting me in the kitchen. She wasn't smiling. Hec, you can not let these girls do that, she said. But, Mother, they certainly were only dancing. They certainly were not only dancing, Hector. These were also blinking you boys. I don't want that happening within my house. But, Mom. My mom abandoned me. No, but mothers, she said in a tone suggesting she was close to being angry. I won't own it, son! Conceding defeat, I answered, Sure, Mom. I do believe you ought to send friends and family home now. Mom made and stepped out, causing me without any probable result except to stare at her wriggling ass. As previously mentioned, I'm a tits and butt man. My mother had equally and my ecent thought of Mother as a sexy woman intended I admired her in a bikini. In the same way she was about to keep the room, she made abruptly, catching me dmiring her ass. Send them house today, Hector, she demanded.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- If you were searching for what exactly Phil Jackson does to earn a salary that's reported to be $12 million this season -- or about $2 million more than Lamar Odom and Shannon Brown make combined -- a trip inside the Lakers' locker room Friday night after their least-inspiring game of the season would, surprisingly, present you with the evidence.
Funny time to find it, considering this was after the Lakers' worse loss of the season without a doubt. Nothing went right for them. Not the offense -- Los Angeles shot 36.3 percent from the field and had 20 turnovers. Not the defense -- Charlotte shot 51.4 percent, outscored the Lakers by 15, 98-83, and matched them in rebounds (41 to 41) and points in the paint (36 to 38) even though the Bobcats are much smaller through the lineup. And not the intangibles -- DJ Mbenga couldn't even line up at the right spot around the key on a late Brown free throw and had to be directed by the referee where to stand and Jordan Farmar fumbled his backpack while taking it out of his locker after the game and re-aggravated his left pinkie injury.
What did go right was the attitude of a team that just was thoroughly outplayed but appeared mindful, rather than emotional, about the loss. It's an attitude that perfectly reflects its coach.
Odom, always an open book and willing to answer any question after a game -- win, lose, or draw as L.O. says -- stood in reflection, processing the answer he would give to the first question he was asked, a simple "What happened out there?" for a good four or five minutes internally before speaking.
"I think as a team we just have to realize everybody wants to beat us," Odom said. "They really want to beat us."
The Lakers processed this wake-up call as a realization, rather than with consternation.
Nobody hit the panic button. Nobody went off on a tirade demanding more touches or more minutes. Nobody put an enormous amount of stock in the Lakers' 17th loss of the season because everyone was aware the whole point of the 82-game regular season is to have a chance to win the 16 games necessary for a championship.
In the eight seasons Jackson has coached a team while it was a defending champion, he has gone on to win a consecutive title in six of them. And of those two times he didn't, one of them was because Michael Jordan (who was sitting behind the Bobcats' bench Friday) decided to play baseball. That's a .750 winning percentage that's even better than Jackson's regular-season winning percentage (.707) or his postseason success (.697), and he ranks first all-time in both categories.
It's the reason why Jackson protected his team after the game when it had lowered that .707 number, but really, he knows it's all about improving upon the .750 clip.
Jackson first diffused the situation by praising Charlotte ("They did a great job pressuring our guards"), then he compartmentalized what went wrong ("[The Lakers] put their heart into it, they just didn't put their mind into it"), then he rationalized the reason for his team's lack of energy (the Lakers got into Charlotte at 4 a.m. Friday after flying in from Miami) and finally he quoted Vince Lombardi offering some Zen of his own ("Fatigue makes cowards of us all").
Jackson could easily have ripped his team. He started off the night by throwing a barb Pau Gasol's way, calling his recent play "weak and sickly," but he refrained from ripping him again after another subpar 11-point night on five-for-14 shooting. Now's not the time to pile on the negativity. In fact, afterward, Jackson came into the locker room and pulled Gasol away from a pack of reporters, telling him, "I want you to meet my friend," and then brought Gasol into another room to spend some time with Charles Oakley.
Jackson's players took the same approach of not blowing the loss out of proportion.
"It's wasted energy [to get angry]," Odom said. "I think the identity of our team is to be patient."
Patience is a virtue, but it's also a gradual quality, one that makes it hard to pinpoint a specific moment of growth or decline. It takes faith and belief. When shared by a group, Jackson says he believes it's when a season can become a spiritual journey. It requires fans to develop patience to be able to follow along in the experience. On the one hand, the Lakers have admittedly lacked a sense of urgency this year, on the other, there is still a long way until June and they have to maintain a steady course. Getting too high or too low would harm the sustainability of that path.
"To win one [championship], you put yourself in a place mentally and physically that you've never been before," Odom explained. "I guess to win it again, after every other team in the league is saying, 'We're not going to let them win,' I can just imagine that it'll be tough."
Kobe Bryant, who somehow found the energy to score 26 points and grab five rebounds and almost single-handedly keeping L.A. within striking distance for most of the game, said he would "probably say something" to his teammates but was not about to dwell on the loss.
"You have those periods during the season when you hit stretches where you're kind of stagnant," Bryant said. "The important thing is when you hit those stretches that you don't go back. You kind of weather the storm and then come out of it a better ballclub."
In October the Lakers called for a players-only, closed-door meeting less than 24 hours after losing an exhibition game by 19 points to Golden State. Farmar said it will probably happen again but focused on the good things coming from it rather than the bad.
"We'll just sit down and look each other in the eyes and find out how bad we want it as a team and discuss some of the things we have to do to get better," Farmar said.
The team presented a near-unified front.
When Andrew Bynum made the comments, "We're just disjointed. ... We're just playing five sets of one-on-ones versus of playing together," ironically, his remarks came off as the individual agenda, one-on-one variety because of how his coach and the rest of his teammates focused on learning lessons rather than laying on criticism.
"We have to make sure that we continue to move forward and understand that if we want to repeat as champions, it's not going to be easy," Bryant said. "You got to bring it."
Jackson has brought his teams there six times already and is preparing to do it a seventh time, earning his keep in a loss to later accomplish his real job of securing the ultimate win.

Decision time approaching for Gonzaga regarding conference affiliation
UPDATED: Sat., March 24, 2018
The shot clock is running on Gonzaga to make a decision on conference affiliation, but the Zags sound as if they're following one of John Wooden's tenets: "Be quick, but don't hurry."
The Mountain West Conference appears to have an open door to bringing in Gonzaga, potentially as early as next season, but school officials are still working through the decision-making process.
"We'd like to be done with all this in the next couple weeks, but there is no deadline," Gonzaga athletic director Mike Roth said. "The time crunch is self-imposed. We're not getting any pressure. We're going to do what's right for Gonzaga."
Discussions have picked up between the Mountain West and Gonzaga, and there will be more time available after the Zags lost to Florida State on Thursday in the Sweet 16.
"We're exploring our options, but the Mountain West has made it clear we could be a really good option from their perspective," Roth said. "That being said, we're still not there with what is best. We're still trying to weigh it out and narrow down some of the factors. It's been hard, because we've been really busy (with the NCAA Tournament)."
Roth said media speculation regarding the Mountain West, which has 11 basketball members, expanding to 14 or 16 teams has never been brought up in his talks with commissioner Craig Thompson. Roth also said rumors of a Gonzaga-BYU package deal are inaccurate.
If Gonzaga joined the Mountain West Conference, CBSsports.com estimated it would result in about $375,000 annually from the conference's TV contract.
While discussions continue with the Mountain West, there has been movement in the West Coast Conference regarding changes with scheduling and revenue distribution to make it a more attractive option if Gonzaga decides to stay put.
Here are several other important considerations in Gonzaga's decision:
- The Mountain West is considered stronger top to bottom than the WCC. The Mountain West is No. 9 in conference RPI, compared to the WCC's No. 13. The Mountain West would provide tougher competition for Gonzaga, which has dominated the WCC for two decades.
The Mountain West would be an upgrade, but is it significant enough to make a move?
- Mountain West games are televised on ESPN networks and CBS networks, including some with late-night tip times. WCC games are on ESPN's family of networks. ESPN has played a key role in Gonzaga's rise to national prominence over the last two decades.
- Basketball is the driving force in the WCC. The Mountain West is a football conference, and football is king in college athletics. Football decisions made at the conference level often have an impact on basketball. Where would Gonzaga stand in the conference's decision-making process?
- The WCC is a collection of mostly smaller, faith-based institutions. The Mountain West is comprised primarily of larger state schools.
"Craig (Thompson) has done a lot of work recently trying to nail some things down. We've done a lot of due diligence, and we need to do more," Roth said. "One thing we've been focusing on is to make the right decision and not worry about the time frame."

A group of pupils have been working incredibly hard to design a two course meal using local ingredients for entry to the Create & Cook competition.
The Create & Cook competition is about creating a menu for two people, and is open to pupils in Years 8 and 9. Ten pupils entered the final cook-off stage last night. Working in pairs, they had ninety minutes in which to create their menu. The competition was tight as each pair, showing their creativity, enthusiasm and high-level making skills, endeavoured to be amongst the three pairs who would be chosen to represent Bishop Luffa in the draw for the County Finals to be held in May. Mr Topley and our Sussex finalists from 2016 (Emily Dicker (10 Story) and Hannah Lipton (10 Sherborne) were our three judges of the final products.
The pupils involved were: – James Berriman (9 Andrewes), Jonathan Maynard (9 Burrows), Leila Karim (9 Burrows), Jasmine Westlake (9 Otter), John Lopez (9 Andrewes), Callum Budd (9 Andrewes), Emily Munns (9 King), Emily Williams (9 King), Emily Rossiter (9 Sherborne) and Ella Green (9 Sherborne).
The judges agreed that having to choose three out of the five pairs was a very difficult decision, but the following pupils were chosen to represent our school in the draw for the next round of the competition: James Berriman (9 Andrewes) and Jonathan Maynard (9 Burrows), Leila Karim (9 Burrows) and Jasmine Westlake (9 Otter), John Lopez (9 Andrewes) and Callum Budd (9 Andrewes).

Poets' faces, handwriting on the wall for Poetry Month
A poet's portrait means a lot more when it shares a frame with a verse scribbled by the hand of the poet.
Photographer Christopher Felver made this deduction 40 years ago, making it his mission to take the pictures and collect the writing samples of several literary icons. He's made two books out of these diptychs, and now, for the first time ever, they are enlarged and framed in a San Francisco gallery.
"Christopher Felver: The Imagination of American Poets" is currently on display — appropriately up in April, known as National Poetry Month — through June at the San Francisco Public Library's Main Branch in the Jewett Gallery.
"It's the human factor; that's what poetry is about," says Felver, who has been entranced by the form since he was 14 and his grandmother took him to the inauguration of President John F. Kennedy in 1961, and he witnessed a reading by Robert Frost.
When Felver later became a photographer and filmmaker, he looked for picture books of poets next to their poetry, on facing pages. There were a few out there, but the poems were always typeset for easy reading. His twist was to show the handwriting.
"The idea is the calligraphic script," he says. "If it were typeset, it wouldn't be as interesting."
Felver, who lives in Sausalito, is known for his portraiture of cultural figures in the arts, often done backstage at performance venues. Musicians, even rock stars, don't mind cooperating, because he has a reputation for working so fast the subject hardly knows he is there.
But poets proved easier to work with.
Felver's project started in 1978, when he took his camera to a May Day reading at the Savoy Tivoli in North Beach. Beat poet Bob Kaufman welcomed him. Since Kaufman had famously not spoken for 10 years after the assassination of President Kennedy, Felver paid close attention to Kaufman's words, which were, "Mi casa es su casa."
The resulting image and prose: Kaufman posed in a straw hat and the words, "From now on, all Presidents have to be movie stars."
A few days later, Felver visited City Lights and took photos of shopkeeper and poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti. While there, he asked Ferlinghetti, "Would you mind writing something down?" Ferlinghetti not only wrote something down, he also illustrated it.
Once Felver had 35 portraits and 35 poems, he flew to New York and checked into the Chelsea Hotel, and within two days he had a book contract for "The Poet Exposed," published in 1986. It had contained all the big names, from here to New York.
A second book, "Tending the Fire: Native Voices," published in 2017, broadened the reach to American Indian poets.
Between the two books, he captured some of the greats who have since passed on — Allen Ginsberg, Robert Duncan, Philip Whalen, Philip Levine, Gregory Corso, and the American Indian voices Maurice Kenny, John Trudell and Russell Means."
Of the 300 subjects he approached, just one poet turned him down (a famous name he declines to mention). For the exhibition, he culled his images down to 50, from Ferlinghetti up through 2016-17 San Francisco Poet Laureate Kim Shuck. All of the pictures are black-and-white, taken while the subject looks straight into the camera.
"There is a creative, open-minded resilience that all these people have," Felver says. "If you look at the picture, then read the poem next to it, you see there is a connection beyond the ordinary without being heavily religious."

Kentucky Revival
Written by: Unknown Posted on: 02/10/2004
Category: Misc.
It all began, not at Cane Ridge, but two years earlier at the emotionally charged communion service at Red River church when a woman at the extreme end of the house, gave vent to her feelings in loud cries and shouts. Only after the movement has spread did Barton W. Stone "learn how to do it" and organized the Cane Ridge ecumenical communion service.
The Kentucky Revival or the Second Great Awakening
It began in the Summer of 1799. The sacrament of the Lord's Supper was administered at the church of Red River (near the Tennessee-Kentucky border), which was ministered to, in connection with the Gasper and Muddy river congregations, by the Rev. James McGready who had recently come from Orange county, North Carolina. This meeting was held from Friday until Monday morning, as was then the custom. Mr. Rankin, Mr. Hodge and William McGee, Presbyterian preachers, and John McGee, brother of William, a Methodist preacher, were present. The McGees were on a mission to Ohio, and stopped in their journey to be present at the meeting.
At this meeting nothing remarkable occurred until Monday, when Mr. Hodge was preaching,
"When a woman at the extreme end of the house, gave vent to her feelings in loud cries and shouts. When dismissed, the congregation showed no disposition to leave, but say, many of them silently weeping in every part of the house."
"Wm. McGee soon felt such a power come over him that he, not seeming to know what he did, left his seat and sat down on the floor, while John sat trembling under a consciousness of the power of God." (Bangs). John McGee felt an irresistible urge to preach and the people were eager to hear him. He began, and again the woman shouted and would not be silent.
Davidson (a famous church historian) thus describes the scene:
"Too much agitated to preach, he expressed his belief that there was a greater than he preaching and exhorted the people to let the Lord God Omnipotent reign in their hearts, and to submit to him, and their soul should live. Upon this, many broke silence and the renewed vociferations of the female before mentioned, were tremendous.
The Methodist preacher, whose feelings were now wrought up to the highest pitch after a brief debate in his own mind, came to the conclusion that it was his duty to disregard the usual orderly habits of the denomination, and passed along the aisle shouting and exhorting vehemently. The clamor and confusion were increased tenfold: the flame was blown to its height: screams for mercy were mingled with shouts of ecstasy, and a universal agitation pervaded the whole multitude, who were bowed before it as a field of grain waves before the wind."
Every settlement along the Green river and the Cumberland was full of religious fervor.
Men filled their wagons with beds and provisions and traveled fifty miles to camp upon the ground and hear him preach. The idea was new, hundreds adopted it, and camp meetings began. The first regular general camp meeting was held at the Gasper River Church, in July, 1800; but the rage spread, and a dozen encampments followed in quick succession.
The meetings were always held in the forest near some church which furnished a lodging place for the preachers.
As the meetings progressed and the excitement grew more intense, and the crowd rushed from preacher to preacher, singing, shouting, laughing, calling upon men to repent, men and women fell upon the ground unable to help themselves, and in such numbers that it was impossible for the multitude to move about, especially at night, when the excitement was the greatest, without trampling them, and so those who fell were gathered up and carried to the meeting house, where the "spiritually slain: as they called them, were laid upon the floor. Some of them lay quiet, unable to move or speak; some could talk, but were unable to move; some would shriek as though in greatest agony, and bound about "like a live fish out of water."
In 1807, Richard McNemar published a book on "The Kentucky Revival." He states that the spread of the revival began in Christian and Logan Co., Kentucky and in the Spring of 1801, had reached Mason Co., Kentucky. Beginning at Flemingsburgh in April, moving to Cabin Creek, where a camp meeting was held, then Concord, in Bourbon County, by the last of May and Eagle Creek in Adams Co., Ohio in the beginning of June.
There were meetings in quick succession at Pleasant Point, Kentucky; Indian Creek, in Harrison county (July); Caneridge, near Paris, Bourbon county (August).
"Here were collected all the elements calculated to affect the imagination. The spectacle presented at night was one of the wildest grandeur. The glare of the blazing camp-fires falling on a dense assemblage of heads simultaneously bowed in adoration and reflected back from long ranges of tents upon every side; hundreds of candles and lamps suspended among the trees, together with numerous torches flashing to and fro, throwing an uncertain light upon the tremulous foliage, and giving an appearance of dim and indefinite extent to the depth of the forest; the solemn chanting of hymns swelling and falling on the night wind; the impassioned exhortations; the earnest prayers; the sobs, shrieks, or shouts, bursting from persons under intense agitation of mind; the sudden spasms which seized upon scores, and unexpectedly dashed them to the ground -- all conspired to invest the scene with terrific interest, and to work up the feelings to the highest pitch of excitement. When we add to this, the lateness of the hour to which the exercises were protracted, sometimes till two in the morning, or longer; the eagerness of curiosity stimulated for so long a time previous; the reverent enthusiasm which ascribed the strange contortions witnessed, to the mysterious agency of God; the fervent and sanguine temperament of some of the preachers; and lastly, the boiling zeal of the Methodists, who could not refrain from shouting aloud during the sermon, and shaking hands all round afterwards. . ; take all this into consideration, and it will abate our surprise very much, when informed that the number of persons who fell, was computed by the Rev. James Crawford, who endeavored to keep an accurate account, at the astounding number of about three thousand."
The subjects and promoters of this revival were those who went into and formed that which was afterward called the New Lights. The Presbyterians among them at first formed themselves into a Presbytery in 1803, calling it the Independent Presbytery of Springfield, for John Thompson, pastor of the Church of Springfield (now Springdale, near Cincinnati, Ohio), was one of those who went off, and that church had the honor of giving a name to the seceders.
This arrangement was, however, of short duration, for June 28, 1804, they adopted what they called "The Last Will and Testament of the Presbytery of Springfield" in which those that signed agreed to "sink into union with the body of Christ at large. The signers included Robert Marshall, John Dunlevy, Richard McNemar, Barton W. Stone, John Thompson and David Purviance. This is the founding of the Christian Church denomination.
On April 20th, 1804, the Turtle Creek Church, which was near Lebanon, Ohio, and a part of the Washington Presbytery, supplied by Richard McNemar, reorganized as a New Light Church, adopting four propositions that were presented in writing, signed by William Bedel, Malcham Worley, Matthias Spring, Aaron Tullis, Samuel Sering, Francis Bedel and Richard McNemar; some of these, and probably all of them had been elders in the church.
At the close of public worship the congregation was asked "Do we adopt the Holy Scriputres as the only rule of faith and practice; the only standard of doctrine and discipline? Do we agree to constitute a church in that capacity to transact business?" These were answered in the affirmative.
The one thing which varied in this church from the New Lights was that the New Lights did not allow dancing, although involunary movement brought on by conversion experiences was allowed.
The Turtle Creek Church encouraged voluntary dancing. At first the dancing was very formal -- going round the stand chanting in a low tone of voice, "This is the Holy Ghost: Glory!" But the ensuing Fall and Winter, the dancing became less formal. About the latter end of the year 1804, there wre regular societies of these people, in the state of Ohio, at Turtle Creek, Eagle Creek, Springfield (Springdale), Orangedale, Salem, Beaver Creek, Clear Creek, etc. and in Kentucky at Cabin Creek, Fleminsburgh, Concord, Caneridge, Indian Creek, Bethel, Paint Lick, Shawny Run, and besides, an innumerable multitude dispersed among the people in Tennessee, North Caroina, Virginia and in the Western parts of Pennsylvania.
In 1805 while the people were in this confused, excited state, expecting they knew not what, three men,
John Meacham, Benjamin S. Youngs, and Issachar Bates, on the first day of the year, started from the church at New Lebanon, town of Canaan, in the state of New York, on foot, and arriving in Kentucky, about the first of March, stopped a few days at Paint Lick, whre they were kindly enteretained; thence they journeyed to Caneridge, and spent a few days among the subjects of the revival in that place, courteously enteretained by the Rev. Barton W. Stone; thence they came to Ohio, going first to Springdale, but not doing much there, they went to Turtle creek where they arrived the 22d of March. These were Shaker missionaries and quickly converted Rev. McNemar, and soon the main part of the Turtle Creek Church, believed in the doctrines and became members of The United Society of Believers in Christ's Second Coming. This church became the nucleus of the Union Shaker Village, a people who live as celibates, and have all their property in one common fund, managed by those of their own number who are appointed to that work, who honest in all their business transactions, have ever maintained a high charagcter for sobriety and industry, and whose trade mark upon any article is accepted as proof of its being the best of its kind. By 1807 there were between thirty and forty families at Turtle Creek and twenty or thirty families at Eagle Creek who had come into the new belief. The most of the members of Orangedale church which was in Lemon township, Butler county, not far from Lebanon, also came.

Israel launches air offensive to quell rocket attacks from Gaza
JERUSALEM - The Israeli army said it launched an offensive operation early Tuesday against the Gaza Strip to quell rocket attacks, and a Palestinian official said Israeli airstrikes injured at least nine Palestinians.
The Israeli airstrikes come after Gaza militants fired dozens of rockets at southern Israel on Monday. The military rushed more forces to the border late Monday and had warned that such an offensive was likely.
The army said it was carrying out airstrikes in the Gaza Strip early Tuesday. It did not elaborate.
Gaza health official Ashraf Al-Kedra said at least nine Palestinian civilians were brought to a Gaza hospital with light to moderate injuries from the airstrikes.
The latest violence came as Israel pressed forward with its investigation of six Jewish youths suspected of abducting and killing a Palestinian teenager, and Israeli leaders sought to calm an emotional debate over whether the country's politically charged atmosphere led to the gruesome crime. An Israeli official said three of the youths had confessed to the attack.
Tensions have been high since three Israeli teenagers kidnapped June 12 in the West Bank were later found dead, followed by last week's slaying of the Palestinian youth in what many suspect was a revenge attack. Throughout the unrest, Gaza militants have launched more than 200 rockets and mortars into Israel, including close to 100 on Monday alone.
Israel has responded with dozens of airstrikes, but has not been able to halt the attacks. Eight Palestinian militants were killed in fighting Monday, the highest death toll yet.
Among the dead were six Hamas militants who Israel said were killed in an accidental blast in a tunnel packed with explosives.
Dozens of rockets were fired Monday, including 40 launched in a single hour after nightfall, setting off air raid sirens up to 50 miles from Gaza, the military said.
Twelve rockets were intercepted by rocket-defense batteries, while the others landed in open areas. It was the deepest penetration of rocket strikes in the current round of fighting and raised the likelihood of an even tougher Israeli response.
Lt. Col. Peter Lerner, an Israel Defense Forces spokesman, said the army was moving two infantry forces to the Gaza border and had received authorization to mobilize up to 1,500 reservists.
In Washington, State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said the U.S. condemns the rocket fire. "We also support Israel's right to defend itself against these attacks," she said.
The news that the suspects were Jewish set off nationwide soul-searching over how Israelis could possibly carry out such a gruesome crime. A preliminary autopsy found that Abu Khdeir was still alive when he was set on fire.
"I am ashamed on behalf of my nation and grieve with you," President Shimon Peres told Abu Khdeir's father, Hussein. "The only thing left for all of us to do is to ensure that no more children are murdered, and no more tears are shed by mothers."
Peres, a Nobel peace laureate, was among top Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who expressed condolences to the family.
"I would like to express my outrage and that of the citizens of Israel over the reprehensible murder of your son," a statement quoted Netanyahu as saying.

Improve Home Ambiance With The Right Curtains
When choosing home décor, homemakers often focus their attention on the colour of paintwork, the correct lighting fixtures, even the artwork on the walls. But it's also important to choose the right curtains for home decorations because they can drastically improve home ambiance and make the atmosphere more inviting. In fact, they can make such a difference to the feel of a living space that they can be a great starting point for choosing the way your finished room will look.
* Choosing the right fabric
Lightweight or heavy, textured or plain, patterned or block colour – the choice of fabrics might seem overwhelming at first, and every detail contributes to the ambiance of a room. You may want thick curtains for bedrooms, and something lighter for your downstairs rooms. It's important to think of each room as a completed piece before you begin and before you invest in furnishings. Ask for fabric samples to help you visualise what the final outcome will look like.
* Choosing the best colours
Small rooms benefit from paler colours which can help make them appear spacious. A larger room can afford to use a deeper range of colours. Match your preferences to the size and scope of the room you are renovating and take it from there. Remember, curtains can dominate a room with colour, or can blend effortlessly with the rest of the space so use them to dictate the preferred ambiance of the room.
*Working with different curtain types
They're not just for covering up windows after all. One way to really add ambiance would be to invest in canopies for your bed. Simple swathes of fabric around a bed can add a feeling of intimacy, coziness or luxury, depending on the fabric and style of hanging. Don't be afraid to experiment with ideas.
As you can see, there are no hard and fast rules for home décor, so instead of starting with the walls, why not start with the curtains. You should find the variety of available fabric types a great inspiration point for your finished room. Good luck!

Just a heads up, this is a photo of the supplies required for this task. ( Although the brand is completely optional!)
To begin, start by drawing a similar shape to the parallelogram above. Remember that this will be your base, and keep in mind that while you are drawing you keep it easy to erase!
Now, you will be drawing the 'main body' of the eye. In order to begin, draw a line slightly arching upward, next draw a reflection of the first line starting at the right edge and connect it.
Now, draw the pupil of the eye. Make sure that when drawing the pupil, it has to be the shape of an oval and the suitable size for the eye. You can choose the size you think is good enough!
Now you will be drawing the eyelashes. The eyelashes are really easy to draw on your eye. Here is a tip! Make the eyelashes look hooked on and look like actual eyelashes.
Now, draw the minor details in the pupil (as shown above). Also feel free to erase the parallelogram marks if you haven't already!
In this step, you will be adding 2 lines above the eye, this is to show that your character has eye lids. Don't forget to colour the pupil in the middle!
Now, at the top right you should have drawn a small circle slightly leaning onto the pupil. In this step, where it was leaning you have to erase that line making it look more presentable.
To begin this step, you will lightly shade your eye fading colour as you are going downwards. Smudge it with your finger giving it a nice effect. (You can do this in colour, it's optional)
You have almost finished your eye, but don't stop now! Start by drawing an eyebrow over the lines with a small space in between them, when your happy with the shape of the eyebrow, sign your drawing!
When your happy with the shape of the eyebrow, colour it in the way you prefer! You successfully drew an eye, congratulations! Remember if you didn't get it your first try, practice makes perfect!
