"The history of technology you probably know is one of men and machines, garages and riches, alpha nerds and brogrammers. But the little-known fact is that female visionaries have always been at the vanguard of technology and innovation--they've just been erased from the story. Until now. Women are not ancillary to the history of technology; they turn up at the very beginning of every important wave. But they've often been hidden in plain sight, their inventions and contributions touching our lives in ways we don't even realize. VICE reporter and YACHT lead singer Claire L. Evans finally gives these unsung female heroes their due with her insightful social history of the Broad Band, the women who made the internet what it is today. Learn from Ada Lovelace, the tortured, imaginative daughter of Lord Byron, who wove numbers into the first program for a mechanical computer in 1842. Seek inspiration from Grace Hopper, the tenacious mathematician who democratized computing by leading the charge for machine-independent programming languages after World War II. Meet Elizabeth "Jake" Feinler, the one-woman Google who kept the earliest version of the Internet online, and Stacy Horn, who ran one of the first-ever social networks on a shoestring out of her New York City apartment in the 1980s. Evans shows us how these women built and colored the technologies we can't imagine life without. Join the ranks of the pioneers who defied social convention and the longest odds to become database poets, information-wranglers, hypertext dreamers, and glass ceiling-shattering dot com-era entrepreneurs. This inspiring call to action is a revelation: women have embraced technology from the start. It shines a light on the bright minds whom history forgot, and shows us how they will continue to shape our world in ways we can no longer ignore. Welcome to the Broad Band. You're next"-- Provided by publisher.

The best lodge in northern Malawi
June 12, 2019
by Arianna Meschia
While Malawi has slowly been making its way up as a prime African destination, the northern shores of its homonymous lake remain largely unexplored, partly because of how difficult it is to access them.
Getting there
The easiest way to explore Lake Malawi north of Nkhata Bay is to grab the Ilala Ferry, which runs surprisingly smoothly and follows a very clear schedule.
If you're proactive enough to take it from Nkhata Bay on a Sunday morning at 5am, you'll disembark on the white shores of Usisya, a heavenly place about 20 km north of Nkhata Bay, at around 9AM, ready to enjoy the day ahead of you.
Otherwise, a matola truck leaves the city of Mzuzu everyday in the early mornings, getting to Usisya anything from six to eight hours after. Though the journey is slightly cheaper and doesn't involve seasickness, accidents are common on the steep hills between Mzuzu and Usisya, which the truck drivers tend to career down at an alarming speed.
Usisya Beach Eco Lodge
Whichever way you get to Usisya, you will definitely need a rest after the journey – and there is no better place for that than Usisya Beach Eco Lodge, where low stonewalls surround the sandy floors of the chalets, topped by bamboo roofs supported by wooden pillars. Soft see-through curtains provide privacy but keep you connected to the beautiful nature around you, while a thick canopy of almost tropical proportions shelters you from the heat.
The whole lodge is eco-friendly, built with natural materials and using composting toilets and solar power. The kitchen offers nurturing and tasty vegetarian food from their permaculture garden and farm, with international as well as Malawian dishes, cooked by the most amazing local chef.
With only two chalets and a small area for camping and glamping, it's not uncommon to be almost alone at the lodge, especially off-season. You can indulge in watching mischievous monkeys chasing each other and jumping on the roofs of the chalets, while a monitor lizard lazily sunbathes on the sandy beach and a fish eagle soars high up into the forest that covers Mphande hill, just behind the lodge.
What To Do
Besides lounging on the sand, dipping in the water or reading a book under the bamboo shelter at the bar, Usisya offers a few short hikes around the surrounding countryside.
The village sits quietly behind the hill and across the wide plain stretching up to the mountains that eventually lead back to Mzuzu and the rest of the world. A short hike takes you to Sasasa waterfall, where you can freshen up in the cold pools and let the potency of the water reinvigorate your tired muscles.
The more intrepid hikers can venture on a five to seven hour hike to nearby Ruarwe, another idyllic spot 20 km further north. You'll cross sleepy fishing villages, climb up steep hills and enjoy fantastic views of the whole of Lake Malawi from the top of the promontory, before descending again and reaching your final destination at Zulunkhuni River Lodge.
By Arianna Meschia
After studying English, French and Spanish in my Italian hometown, I graduated in Film & Creative Writing in London, where I landed a job as production manager. 5 years and a lot of stress later, I decided to leave it all behind to volunteer in the Calais refugee camp in France first, and in rural Malawi after. I'm currently motorbiking across Eastern Africa and Europe, trying to make a living from travel writing, experiencing countries and cultures I never knew I would visit, and taking way too many pictures.Read more at ariannameschia.com

This is how to do it on a MacBook.
1. Use a format such as JPEG.
2. Select Tools.
3. Select Adjust Size.
4. Remove the lock to freely adjust the scale
5. Set it to Height: 1900px, Width 955px *This info should be in pixels.
This should work hopefully. You cannot adjust the scale on Steam.

GP Ties the Knot
What happens when Goop puts together the ultimate Source Book of talent for GP's wedding? Major swooning:
"September 29 was a bright fall day in New York—sunny and cool with a crispness in the air. In other words, the gods complied on GP's wedding day. Seventy guests descended on Amagansett to bear witness and raise a glass to GP and her groom, Brad Falchuk. The revelry started the night before with a rehearsal dinner, where wedding guests dined alfresco under a canopy of bistro lights. And for the big day: perfect weather, a superlative dinner, a dance party for the ages, and a dress that defies adjectives. Hours later, when the last guest went home and the last champagne flute was cleared away, the day ended as it began—with beauty, love, and two very happy people."

Healthcare achievements across East Staffs celebrated
Virgin Care has described its achievements made over 2017/18 across the East Staffordshire Improving Lives Programme, following publication of the services' Quality Account.
The Quality Account details the quality of services provided by Virgin Care and informs patients, staff and the public about the standard of care they can expect from the service, how it measures the quality of services and plans for further improving the quality of care provided.
Across East Staffordshire, some of the achievements include:
- People in East Staffordshire who have been referred to Virgin Care's Nutrition Support Service due to malnutrition, are now being offered the opportunity to have a food preparation demonstration in the comfort of their own home. The aim of this new initiative is to help people take back some control of their own wellbeing and enjoy the experience of eating once more.
- Virgin Care has striven to improve the safety of prescribing and administration of medication. A dedicated pharmacist within the service has facilitated access to training for colleagues. The pharmacist has led on making improvements to non-medical prescribing through providing enhanced support to prescribers.
- The East Staffordshire Learning Disability Primary Care Service has maintained a resource of advice to colleagues around raising awareness of the Mental Capacity Act, ensuring those people with a Learning Disability and those with issues around capacity have the same rights and are as valued as other people.
- Colleagues in the Virgin Care Adult Ability Service provided training to other teams within East Staffordshire on assessment of seated posture. This led to the creation of a new assessment form and a plan to extend the training further around posture when lying down.
- The Virgin Care Improving Lives programme granted an award to enable St Giles Hospice to extend the Holly Road Supportive Care centre's offer to the community, increasing awareness of the centre's aims and vision within the community and exploring new ways to ensure the sustainability of the centre.
Michelle Lee, Managing Director of East Staffordshire Improving Lives Programme for Virgin Care, said: "We've delivered so much over the last 12 months and staff have described a great deal of pride in what has been achieved.
"Much of this, which is reported on in the Quality Account, is a result of our dedicated colleagues and how we've worked together with different providers to deliver improved services which work well together."
The full Quality Account for 2017/18 can be found on Virgin Care's website and includes more achievements in further detail, including progress against local quality priorities, Friends and Family Test scores and priorities going forward in 2018/19: http://www.virgincare.co.uk/quality-accounts-2018/

Elderly people reminded to stay hydrated in hot weather, says Virgin Care nurse
As people across East Staffordshire continue to bask in high temperatures, the importance of staying hydrated – particularly for older people – cannot be underestimated.
Dehydration can cause people to be more sleepy, unsteady on their feet and more likely to suffer from falls and urine infections. Some people may even end up requiring medical treatment or a hospital admission from not drinking enough fluid throughout the day – but the symptoms of dehydration are often hard to recognise.
Virgin Care's Continence Service – one of a number of services it runs and oversees as part of East Staffordshire's Improving Lives Programme – is currently working with all 76 care homes, nursing homes and learning disability homes across East Staffordshire to help ensure that some of the people most susceptible to the effects of dehydration are kept well.
It is part of the '8 to hydrate' campaign which aims to raise awareness of the early symptoms and signs of dehydration, providing people with simple information on how to prevent it.
This includes materials designed to encourage people to stay hydrated, including a drinks tracker people could take away and use to know they're hydrated enough.
Cheryl Smith, Lead Nurse for Community Nursing for Virgin Care in East Staffordshire, said: "We all need to ensure that we stay hydrated in the current weather, but it's particularly important for our older population.
"Older people may lose their sense of thirst, so might need encouragement to drink more often. The 8 to Hydrate campaign aims to do just that by reminding people that they should drink at least 8 drinks a day unless otherwise advised by a doctor."
East Staffordshire's Improving Lives Programme focuses on helping people to be healthier for longer and helps those people with long-term health conditions to take more control over their own care.

Local people help achieve improvements to health services
Local people are helping to improve community health services for adults across East Staffordshire so that they're are able to receive care in their own home and the necessary support to stop them from being admitted to hospital.
More than 100 people are actively involved in Virgin Care's Citizens' Panel, a virtual group of local people who are informed, asked and involved in delivering the organisation's East Staffordshire Improving Lives Programme, and have helped shape positive changes to community health services.
The Improving Lives Programme was able to launch a new Care Co-ordination Centre (CCC) that helps around 250 patients every day from its base in Burton, after input from panel members. The CCC offers a simpler approach to accessing community services in East Staffordshire with patients, GPs and other professionals calling a single telephone number, 24/7 to access all community services.
Local people are also contributing their views on a joint project with Queen's Hospital in Burton which aims to reduce the number of frail people admitted to hospital.
Panel members most recently met Virgin Care colleagues to discuss improvements to neurology services, exploring new ways to improve the service with their feedback and input vital to the redesign of the service going forward.
Sign-ups remain open to local people who want to know more and get involved in the plans.
All next week, Virgin Care is celebrating the Citizens' Panels achievements across the organisation. In East Staffordshire people can visit Tutbury Village Hall on Monk Street on Wednesday 13 June between 2-4pm to find out more about the work the panel has been involved in and also have the opportunity to sign up.
Michelle Lee, Managing Director for Virgin Care East Staffordshire, said: "We're very proud of what the Citizens' Panel members have been able to help us achieve in East Staffordshire, working with us to develop new ways of providing services which work for local people and deliver improved outcomes.
"Current members are making some really positive contributions to our services, and we welcome more people to join the Citizens' Panel to help us make a difference to people's lives."
Virgin Care provides East Staffordshire Improving Lives Programme, which focuses on helping people to be healthier for longer and helps those people with long-term health conditions to take more control over their own care. For more information visit: http://eaststaffsimprovinglives.nhs.uk/
Notes to editors:
- People can also sign up to the Citizens' Panel online by simply visiting: http://eaststaffsimprovinglives.nhs.uk/citizenspanel/
- The Citizens' Panel is a group of local people who shape health and care services by offering their views and insight into what matters for them, helping Virgin Care to set priorities and develop solutions. Members choose their level of involvement from being 'informed', 'asked' or 'involved' and select services they're interested in. They then receive regular updates with the latest news and opportunities to get involved based on those preferences.
Virgin Care operates five Citizens' Panels across the country in Bath and North East Somerset, Essex, North Kent, West Lancs including East Staffs to encourage engagement.

The coyote, Canis latrans, now occurs throughout most of North America, as well as in parts of Latin America. The range of the coyote has greatly expanded in recent years as habitats have been altered and wolves have been eliminated from many areas. Coyotes are common in Utah, occurring in open deserts, grasslands, forests, urban settings, and other habitats. Because coyotes occasionally kills pets, livestock, and young game animals, they are often considered to be pests.
Female coyotes may produce one litter of four to seven pups during the spring. The young are typically born in earthen dens, where they remain for eight to ten weeks. Both parents tend to the pups until fall, when the young leave the family and head off on their own. Coyotes are opportunistic feeders that mainly consume small animals and carrion (animals already dead), although plant material is occasionally consumed. Coyotes are active year-round and are primarily nocturnal.

Witchcraft Secret Spells Manual
J|8ra||i|n 1938, a retired British civil servant, amateur anthropologist, E/yrl and Freemason named Gerald Gardner met the members of the R o si crucian Fellowship of Cro-tona and their Rosicrucian Theatre. The Fellowship had started as a Co-Masonic lodge from the mixed gender form of Freemasonry founded in the 1920s by Annie Besant, well known as an early Theosophical leader. But inside the Fellowship there supposedly existed an inner circle, this one calling itself the New Forest Coven and claiming to be a group of Fam-Trad Witches who had kept "The Old Religion" of Witchcraft alive.
It seems that the lodge, the theatre and the coven — which may have been overlapping, rather than subsets of one another — were, as Fred Lamond, a surviving member of Gardner's last coven (see below), puts it:
.three experimental groups practicing Theosophy, Rosicrucian magic, and reconstructed witchcraft according to the theories of Margaret Murray. It was the latter group that Gerald joined, and in which he found
'everything he had longed for all his life,' according to his biography Gerald Gardner: Witch [written by Sufi scholar Idries Shah, under the name of journalist Jack Bracelin].
Gardner was later to say that all of the members of the coven were very old and apparently the last of their kind. Having decided that their beliefs and practices were fragmented and incomplete (whether as overt or covert reconstructions), Gardner began to research and write new rituals, customs and beliefs for himself in a highly eclectic fashion. In 1939, Gardner published his first (bad) novel, A Goddess Arrives, based in part on a vision he had of the Goddess some years earlier in Cyprus. She was to become ever more central to his life's work. Lamond told me:
Gerald admitted that the group's membership consisted largely of middle class intellectuals with a large element of ex-colonial administrators like him. And he said its rituals were 'sketchy.' Where Gardner starts being creative with the truth is when he claimed the New Forest coven included among its members a couple of hereditary cunning men and that these provided the continuous initiatory link to Stone Age witchcraft. While I have not seen the New Forest Coven's membership list — for obvious reasons, this was highly oath bound — I must say that any cunning men among their members kept their knowledge very much to themselves. The stock in trade of British cunning men was horse-whispering (a benign horse training method recently publicized by Monty Roberts) and weather magic, while their partners the wise women were (or are as some of them are still around) highly knowledgeable of medicinal plants. None of this was ever passed on by Gerald: his spell casting was strictly and only mental thought projection boosted by the raising of physical/emotional power...
...I visited Cecil Williamson in 1994 and asked him about his recollections of witchcraft groups in the New Forest area. He told me that after Margaret Murray published her Witch Cult in Western Europe in 1924, many magical groups started looking for hereditary cunning men and/or wise women to join their groups and instruct them about what witches actually did. According to Cecil, these cunning men listened carefully to what the magical groups' preconceptions were and then fed these back to them, but didn't volunteer any information that the magical groups didn't already have. So it is quite possible that the Cro-tona Fellowship went hunting high and low for genuine horny handed sons of the soil to join their experimental witchcraft group and got two, but this would explain why these cunning men never passed on their herbal and weather control knowledge. Gerald probably genuinely believed that their presence gave his group a lineage back to the Stone Age because that is what he wanted to believe himself.
Gardner worked on his project throughout World War Two, taking material from any source that didn't run away too fast. He was on friendly terms with the (in-)famous occultist, poet, "pervert," and Mesopagan prophet Aleister Crowley, whom he met only a few months before the latter's death in 1947. Crowley gave him a charter to found a branch of his ceremonial magic organization, the Ordo Templi Orientis (O.T.O.), and granted him membership (with or without initiations being performed or money changing hands) in the Fourth Degree of that eleven-degreed organization. After Crowley's death, Gardner apparently spent at least a year trying to revive the moribund British O.T.O., before giving it up to concentrate on his Witchcraft project instead.
Crowley may also have given Gardner permission to use some of his poetry and ritual materials, which Gardner certainly did in any event, leading to claims years later by critics that Gardner had paid Crowley to write rituals for him. As some folks have said, this charge is ridiculous on the face of it, for if Crowley had written them, the poetry would have been much better.
Lance Sieveking, in his autobiography, The Eye of the Beholder, claims that in 1922, Montague Summers (author of several credulous books on werewolves, vampires and the Inquisition), told him that Crowley and he were "both honorary members of several of the best covens" and had attended "many a sabbat" together. Oddly, there is no mention of this unusual membership or activity in Crowley's obsessively detailed and thoroughly "shameless" diaries, which are otherwise quite blasé about many ideas and activities that even today are shocking to some.
There is an old rumor (still being told today) that Crowley had been "kicked out of" covens for refusing to obey their priestesses. This story was started by some of Gardner's less-scrupulous competitors, who were trying to assert the existence of pre-Gardner priestess-led covens. When author Gavin Frost asked Louisa Leek, who was a friend of Crowley's, about these stories, he tells me,
She laughed her head off. [She said,] 'Crowley could never have stood the middle-aged housewife types that were in the later covens.' Apparently, he held out for young, succulent, and intelligent.
According to Frost, Louisa Leek (mother of Sybil Leek) was a member of a British occult group, the "Pentagram Club," that competed with Gardner and his friends in the Witchcraft-inventing process.
Today there remains zero evidence that Crowley had any conscious hand in the creation of Gardner's religion of Witchcraft, or its rituals, and even less that he had ever been initiated into or practiced any form of witchcraft. He would have cheerfully bragged about them if he had! The people who invented these tales were simply, to use the technical historical term, lying.
Gardner's Crotona associates may have been, as he claimed, members of a surviving coven of Fam-Trad Witches. Or they may have been, as Fred Lamond, Gavin Frost, Ronald Hutton, and others believe, just a motley assortment of British occultists who had decided to create a new religion based on the books of Murray, Frazer, Leland, and other folklorists (to which Gardner would add the ideas of romantic poets, nudists, and nature religionists). Indeed, there apparently were several groups of British oc cultists, with overlapping memberships — England is a very small island — who were attempting to (re-)create Murray's religion of Pagan Witchcraft at the same time.
Whether or not he had "authority" to do so, from an ancient coven that may or may not have existed, Gerald Gardner founded his own coven during World War II (or shortly thereafter) and went merrily on his way. The war, unfortunately, had a devastating effect on occultism in Europe. The Nazis exterminated at least half the Gypsies in Europe, along with many astrologers, psychics, Freemasons, Rosicrucians, The-osophists, Spiritualists, and other members of minority belief systems. By 1940, if any of the postulated Fam-Trad Witches had been left in Europe, few would have survived, precisely because they had been masquerading as all those other kinds of occultist. Their carefully crafted cover stories would have left them obvious targets.
In 1948, Robert Graves published The White Goddess. Up to this point, would-be witchcraft reconstructionists had mostly been following the works of Leland, Frazer, and Murray, all of whom were at least attempting to be scholarly and scientific, albeit heavily influenced by the academic fashions of their time (unlike modern scholars who are, naturally, immune to such subcultural biases). Now Graves, a writer of historical novels, a classicist, and a roman tic poet, jumped into the act. The results were not pretty — or more precisely, that's all they were.
The purpose of The White Goddess was to prove that the Universal Goddess Worship theories were correct. To accomplish this took considerable acrobatics. He jumped back and forth from the Mediterranean to the British Isles and across great gaps of time. He constantly asked his readers to accept a "slight" bit of illogic and error, then built these up into gigantic megaliths of theory. While admitting he spoke no Celtic language, he appointed himself an authority on Welsh language and customs. He used obsolete and inaccurate translations of Celtic poetry, when there were good ones around in 1948, perhaps because the accurate translations wouldn't have supported his ideas as well. Graves' enthusiasm for the idea that all goddesses are either "Maidens," "Mothers," or "Crones" had a major effect upon what would become the "duo-theology" (see Appendix 2) of the Mesopagan Witchcraft movement.
(Graves, like Murray, is a good example of the "Retired Professor Syndrome," in which a perfectly competent academic retires, gets bored, and decides to write a book on something he or she knows nothing about — with embarrassingly bad results.)
In 1949, Gardner published another bad novel, High Magic's Aid, under the pen name of Scire ("knower"). He apparently wanted to advertise that he was a member of Crowley's magical order, since the note "4=7" appears under his name, indicating to the cognoscenti that he had reached the level of "Philosophus" in the O.T.O. Then as now, it was rare for anyone to actually work through the middle grades of the system (nepotism and graft always being a much faster way to rise), and as we have seen, Crowley had given him that rank after knowing him only a brief time. Perhaps Gardner wanted people to assume that he had a solid background in the Golden Dawn and tantric-based O.T.O. system of occult theory and practice, or perhaps he was sincerely studying them and intended to integrate them into his Witchcraft religion.
In 1951, the British Witchcraft Act (aimed at those who "pretended" to be witches) and the Vagrancy Act (aimed mostly at "Gypsies" and other traveling diviners who were assumed to be frauds) were both repealed (along with all the previous witchcraft laws in England) and a variety of "witches" surfaced. The most famous of these was the previously mentioned Sybil Leek, who claimed to be what I have called a Fam-Trad Witch (she may actually have been one if we consider her mother's supposed activities with the Pentagram Club).
In 1951, Gerald Gardner moved to the Isle of Man, settling into a building known as the Witches Mill, and running Cecil Williamson's Folklore Centre of Superstition and Witchcraft there as the "resident witch." Since Gardner had come to believe that a priestess must lead every coven, he began initiating likely candidates, and in 1953 initiated Doreen Valiente — one of his best decisions.
She rewrote most of his early ritual materials, dumping much of the early borrowings from Crowley, whom she loathed. Later she wrote her own excellent books, including An ABC of Witchcraft Past and Present, Witchcraft for Tomorrow, and Witchcraft: a Tradition Renewed. After she left the coven, Gardner worked with several other women as priestesses, including Patricia Crowther (also author of several books, including Lid off the Cauldron, Witches Were for Hanging and High Priestess), Monique Wilson, Elea-nore ("Ray") Bone, and others.
In 1954, Murray published The Divine King in England, in which she claimed, essentially, that every king of England had died ritually, as in Frazer's Golden Bough. By this time there were few scholars in the world who would believe her arguments, based as they were on obsolete theories, selective evidence and sloppy logic. But there were plenty of would-be witches happy to accept it all.
From the middle 1950s on, new covens split off from Gerald's original one, both le gitimately, through the process known as "hiving-off," wherein a Third Degree woman with other members leave amicably with permission to begin a new coven, and illegitimately, through the process known as "stealing a copy of the Book of Shadows." This last term, often abbreviated as BOS, was the name Gardner gave to his magical, initiatory, and pseudo-historical text.
Many versions of texts claiming to be from Gardner's original Book of Shadows have been published at one time or another, either by Gardner himself, his followers and spiritual descendants, or various plagiarists trying to cash in on his work. Gardner himself sent (badly) typewritten copies of his early drafts of rituals for the holidays, poems and theological meditations, etc., to his initiates, asking for corrections and advice on whether the material "felt right."
I obtained copies of some of these in 1973 (see Chapter 9), long before I was initiated into any tradition of Wicca (those initiations include one into a supposed Polish Fam-Trad in the late 1970s, into NROOGD — see below — in the 1980s, and into Gardnerianism in the 1990s). They supported many suspicions I had long had about the history of Wicca.
That said, it should also be noted that there is no such thing as "the" Gardnerian Book of Shadows! This is true not only because Gardner was constantly changing his own copies, but also because every Gardnerian initiate is supposed to be encouraged to add new materials and to pass these down to her or his own students in turn (with everything noted as to author and date of addition). So, no two copies of the BOS are identical and no one will ever be able to publish a "complete" edition.
Gardner's vision of Witchcraft was of a structured system with elders knowing more than newcomers, but with the members considering each other as more-or-less equals, in keeping with the "peasant religion" mythos. His earliest initiation scripts, as seen in his novel High Magic's Aid, had each member being labeled a "priest (or priestess) and witch" at their very first "Degree." Gardner had borrowed the Masonic pattern — and much of their scripts — of three "degrees" of initiation. However, he soon discovered the "90/10" rule common to most organizations, large or small: 90% of the work gets done by 10% of the members (while 90% of the complaining is done by a different 10%). So he soon had to invent the terms "High Priest" and "High Priestess" for the people actually fulfilling leadership roles.
The first splitting of one of Gardner's covens was apparently when the priestess (Valiente) left with most of the members and formed her own coven. Soon the term "hiv-ing-off" was coined, on the metaphor of young female bees leaving a successful hive with a few males to start new hives. Eventually, the High Priestess of a coven that had experienced successful hivings-off was known as a "Witch Queen." In a royalist nation, that was bound to cause problems, but not as many as it was to cause later in democratic countries.
The first hiving happened because Valiente and the others were opposed to the increasingly lurid interviews Gardner was giving to the British tabloid press (note to most Americans: these made — and make today — the National Enquirer look like the New York Times). Ironically, just such a lurid interview had attracted Valiente's attention to Gardner in the first place! Doreen and company also disapproved of some of the women Gerald was initiating (he did have a sweet tooth for young, attractive women, no matter how talentless).
I can offer two arguments in Gardner's defense here. (1) a stronger than average libido is extremely common among both male and female founders of new religions throughout history, and (2) I believe he was working on what we could today call a "Witches' Pyramid Scheme." By initiating as many young people as possible, and encouraging all of his initiates to do the same, he hoped that out of the large numbers who would eventually be initiated, enough of them would prove to have been good choices and would be able to keep his religion going.
This strategy worked surprisingly well. For example, one of Gardner's daughter covens initiated a couple named Rosemary and Raymond Buckland to all three Degrees. The initiations happened in a relatively short time, but this was (and still is) common in Masonic and other fraternal lodges, so Gardner allowed and encouraged quick initiations. The Bucklands then went to the United States and founded a coven in Long Island, New York. This coven became the source of one of the most distinguished (and prolific) of all the Gardnerian "family lines" of initiates in the United States. Indeed it's the line in which I eventually received my Gardnerian Wiccan initiations — not that I'm biased, of course...
When the Bucklands divorced sometime later, Rosemary got custody of the coven and quickly handed the High Priestess position down to another woman in the group. This left Raymond Buckland in a tight spot, for under the rules that had by then been created, a High Priestess must preside at all initiations. To solve his dilemma, Raymond Buckland invented Seax (or "Saxon") Wicca as an admittedly new denomination — or "Tradition" as all such new sects became known — into which anyone could initiate him- or herself. That let the rabbit out of the hutch and apparently she was already pregnant! Buckland's stamp of approval on self-initiation set off a population explosion of Witches. Meanwhile, other initiates of Gardner's various High Priestesses and daughter covens took his religion to Canada, Europe, Australia, South Africa, and elsewhere around the world.
The less-legitimate, light-fingered groups mentioned earlier commonly claimed, as did members of other competing Witchcraft revivals/inventions in England, to belong to traditions of Witchcraft that pre-dated Gardner's efforts. Yet somehow almost all of them wound up using rituals, customs, and vocabulary that were obviously derived from early drafts of Gardner's.
One of the early competitors, Robert Cochrane, was the one who in 1964 started referring to Gardner's new religion as "the Gardnerian Tradition" or "Gardnerianism." Gardner himself called it by several different names over the years, including "the Art," "the Craft, "the Old Order," and "Wica" (with a single "c"). Eventually just about everyone settled on the last term, restoring the missing second "c" and making "Wicca" (with a "k" sound) the more-or-less official generic term for what was to eventually become Neopagan Witchcraft (see below).
The first and most famous of those to schism from Gerald was Alex Sanders, who was later to make a career for himself as the purported "King of the Witches." Some have said that Alex's initiation was "not valid" since a First Degree priestess rather than one who held the Second Degree gave it to him. Lamond says:
As if that mattered! Alex was a natural medium and had been practicing ceremonial magic for a considerable time before his entry into Wicca, which is why he imported more kabalistic practices into his tradition than there are in Gardnerian Wicca. Like many ceremonial magicians who practice too much ... he had lost the ability to distinguish between planes of reality and really believed the whoppers he told people, like being initiated on the kitchen floor at the age of six by his grandmother.
Later, Alex or someone from his coven initiated (probably to the Second Degree only, and probably by mail) an American woman named Jessie Wicker Bell. She later became the "Lady Sheba" of Lady Sheba's Book of Shadows — which simply plagiarized parts of Gardner's BOS (a popular sport for a few decades). Bell also took part of the Frosts' Church and School of Wicca correspondence course (as have a surprising number of supposedly authentic holders of Ancient Wiccan Traditions). Her attempts in the early 1970s to get herself declared
"Queen of the Witches" in America met with little success, however (see next chapter).
I cannot in this short study give an adequate history of how Gardner's followers carried the faith to America and elsewhere. Suffice it to say, that by the middle 1960s, there were a handful of Gardnerian covens operating in the United States and Canada, and other parts of the English-speaking world. By the 1970s there were dozens more independent Traditions of Wicca flourishing throughout the English-speaking world. Both Aidan Kelly's Crafting the Art of Magic, though severely flawed, and Margot Adler's classic Drawing Down the Moon cover this material well (at least for the United States and Canada). The growth in numbers of Traditions and their members since has been astronomical.
The many current varieties of Wicca can be ranged on a spectrum of orthodoxy-to-heterodoxy thusly: on the conservative or orthodox side we will find:
• Gardnerians
• Alexandrians
• other groups that call themselves "British Traditionalists"
Groups that would be on the liberal or heterodox end of the spectrum would include:
• The New Reformed Orthodox Order of the Golden Dawn (or NROOGD, a tradition proudly self-invented in Berkeley, California in the 1960s, which chose a silly-sounding name to keep out people with no sense of humor)
• the gay and/or bisexual and/or straight groups who call themselves "Elvish" or "Fairy/Faery" Traditions (including that of Starhawk, author of The Spiral Dance)
• various Feminist Witchcraft groups discussed in Chapter 10.
Most Wiccan groups, of course, fall somewhere in between.
Many on both ends of the spectrum like to create a dichotomy (often a dualism) between (1) the "Traditionalists," who are the members of conservative groups with a legitimate (or purported) lineage back to Gardner or other British covens, and (2) the "Eclectics," who are those who are liberal in their practices, following the technique of using anything that works no matter where it comes from.
Some Wiccan groups cheerfully call themselves Eclectic, but the word is often used by the conservatives to imply that the liberals don't have The Real Truth and have to make things up as they go along (as if that were a crime).
Similarly, the liberals often use the word Traditionalist to mean "stuffy and rigid." The vast majority of Wiccans are religiously neither conservative nor liberal (on this particular spectrum), but somewhere in the middle, so in keeping with the principles of Western Dualism (see Appendix 2), they are usually accused by Wiccans at each extreme of belonging to the "enemy's" camp.
Beyond all the arrogance and egotism of these arguments, the primary difference between the eclecticism practiced by both the orthodox and the heterodox Wiccans, going all the way back to Gardner himself, is not the amount of material borrowed from other sources, but rather the speed at which new material is accepted as a permanent part of each Tradition/denomination.
I should point out that this chapter — indeed all of this book — is greatly indebted for the clarification of the Gardner-Crowley relationship, as well as much else in the complex background of Wicca's creation, to Ronald Hutton's magnificent work, The Triumph of the Moon: A History of Modern Pagan Witchcraft. This meticulously documented book by a sympathetic historian pounds the final nails into the coffin of the claims Gardner made (and others inflated) that Wicca was an ancient surviving British Pagan religion of Witchcraft.
None but the most stubbornly fundamentalist of orthodox Wiccans can deny
Wicca's true history any longer, though I'm sure that some of them will continue to try. See Ashleen O'Gaea's comments on Hut-ton's work in Appendix 7 for a detailed review of Hutton's work and some similar conclusions to those I've expressed here.

No, this is not the typical 'drink more water' and 'exercise' kind of post- and even though those things are so important- today I am going to talk about something that is overlooked by almost all of us; mental health. Often- especially in this generation that we live in- we tend to focus all our attention on physical health and making sure we 'look good' but we forget that staying healthy mentally is much more important than that.
When I talk about mental health, I mean how anxious and worked up we get because of what other people say/think, how we belittle ourselves because we think we do/say embarrassing things or simply how we slam ourselves for not completing certain tasks or goals. It is essential for us to understand that if we are not happy on the inside, there is no way we can glow on the outside, no matter how hard we try.
Acknowledging that we are upset on the inside and doing something about it is taking a huge step towards self love. So here are a few things that I do to lift me up when I feel low:
I honestly cannot express in words how serene this makes me feel. Meditation is something I religiously do every morning- even on the busiest of days when I get only 5 minutes- to keep me connected to myself and set the tone for my day. Once you start, there's no going back. It is something I learnt from my parents and I am forever grateful to them for always teaching me the path of Yoga.
This is something I have been giving high importance to, since the last 2 years. You realise how much it makes you grow; how much it calms you down. Writing your thoughts down on a piece of paper may sound so simple but the power it carries is sublime.
Whenever anything holds me down, I like to get it out of my mind and write it down, that way it no longer holds any power over me.
This is what I put on the first page of my journal:
Get rid of Negativity.
Negativity is a block, draining you of energy and preventing you from achieving amazing things. It could be the piles of papers tumbling across your desk, the friend who always makes backhanded compliments, the anxious thoughts or the dark corners filled with junk.
The first step towards getting rid of negativity is recognising all its forms and understanding where it comes from in your life; then changing it. Taking responsibility for your own happiness is taking control of negative energy.
Go on Instagram/Snapchat → look at what friends have posted → get jealous → start comparing → feel discontent. Can you relate? I know I can. Being a victim of this chain is so easy in today's world. What's difficult is spending hours unplugging from social media, but once you do, you realise how it completely declutters the mind and creates space for growth.
Feeling bored and don't know what to do? Why spend hours on end scrolling through Instagram when you could be spending that time doing the things you like; the things that actually make your mind feel at peace?
These are some of the pieces I'm working on during my me-time:

Every one of you that cannot renounce all that he possesses, cannot be my disciple.He immediately resolved to renounce the world. Because he was a deacon, Ethbin sought the permission of his bishop to withdraw from the world. Upon receiving it, Ethbin retired to the abbey of Taurac in 554. For his spiritual director, the saint chose another: Saint Winwaloee (f.d. March 3). The community was dispersed by a Frankish raid in 556 and Winwaloee died soon thereafter. Ethbin then crossed over to Ireland, where he led the life of a hermit in a forest near Kildare called Nectensis (unidentified) for 20 years.
Necensiscould be a corruption of Silvanectensis (i.e., Senlis, France), rather than Ireland (Benedictines, Farmer, Husenbeth).

This is one of the messages that emerged at this year's Sugar and Health Symposium hosted by the South African Sugar Association (SASA) in Stellenbosch last month. The theme for this year's symposium was "Prices, Processing and Practice". According to SASA Senior Dietitian Wendy Girven, the symposium zoomed in on the nutritional impact of prices, food processing and how to effectively communicate to clients what they need to hear.
"In 2015, nearly two-thirds (64.2%) of black South African households lived below the poverty line. In 2016, nearly one-third (27%) of South African children under the age of five years are stunted," said Dr Julie Smith, the Research and Advocacy Officer at The Pietermaritzburg Agency for Community Social Action (PACSA). The PACSA Food Price Barometer tracks the monthly prices of the foods in the trolleys of low-income households in Pietermaritzburg. It is specifically designed to measure food price inflation as experienced by households living on low incomes.
Figure blow: Dr Julie Smith, the Research and Advocacy Officer from PACSA presents the impact of food price inflation on low-income households.
"Food availability is not generally a problem. Even with the drought, we have enough food on our supermarket shelves. The problem is food price affordability. We do not have enough money to buy the food we need. We locate the problem not as an agricultural one but as a political and economic one. We analyse food prices through the lens of affordability," said Dr Smith. She added that the country's economy was not creating enough jobs, and the jobs the country has paid the majority of the workers poverty wages. Even the social grants were set at poverty levels, she pointed out.
Dr Smith identified the following as to what happens as a result of affordability crisis:
It means: the food budget is low and households underspend on food, food runs short before the end of the month and women absorb these food shortfalls in their bodies and by taking on more debt.
Other presenters at the symposium were dietitian Philippa Barnard, National Department of Health Director of Nutrition Rebone Ntsie, professional natural scientist, food scientist and consultant Nigel Sunley, and nutrition and dietetics consultant Megan Pentz-Kluyts. Ntsie presented on the Department of Health's National Guide for healthy meal provisioning in the workplace. The guide emphasises that constant messages on healthy eating and the provision of healthy meals in the workplace are important to promote health and wellbeing in the workplace, and to support employees to make healthy food choices.
Barnard's presentation was titled "The Cost of Dietary Diversity: A Balanced Minimum Food Basket". She provided an overview of the PACSA balanced minimum food basket, a menu and shopping list that are culturally acceptable and nutritionally adequate for the target group, as well as highlighting the consequences of low dietary diversity beyond micronutrient deficiency.
In Pentz-Kluyts' presentation, she discussed stages of behaviour change, factors influencing the process and how to overcome obstacles to behaviour change with clients. The symposium delegates were involved in a practical activity to discover what type of learner he/she was. Pentz-Kluyts then provided activity suggestions for effective communication specific to each learner type.
Sunley spoke about sugar replacement – the why's, what's and how's. He pointed out that sugar replacement was not easy but was feasible in many instances with varying costs and product acceptability implications. "Sugar performs three essential functions in food – taste, physical functionality and microbial safety and other functional properties include texture development in baked goods, fermentation substrate in leavening, carmelisation, maillard reaction, texture generator in sugar confectionery, dispersion, foam stabilisation and mouthfeel. Replacement of sugar with non-nutritive sweeteners replaces sweetness but does not replace physical functionality and anti-microbial action of sugar (other carbohydrates eg. polyols, need to be used for this) and there are some suggestions that non-nutritive sweetener consumption does not reduce obesity incidence," he explained.

There are numerous variables you require to consider when hiring Denver auto services which includes how long you will need to have the car and the price. Go for a expense efficient service that offers maximum benefit but at a least value. Moreover, airport taxis have produced airport transportation in Minneapolis a one particular of a sort experience. Inexpensive now and later: You can buy MaxCare upfront or contain the price in your month-to-month vehicle payment. Try searching Google for strategies of shipping from Canada to USA and registering a car there. For households, we are one of the few transportation firms in Los Angeles that supplies child automobile seats. Your objective is to conclude your proposal by persuading the reader that you can be trusted to deliver the goods or solutions you have described. If you are company individual who makes so several trips in a year, then Denver car services would be excellent for you.
All you require to do is to give your auto to them and they will make certain that it returns in the ideal conditions. It offers the purchaser confidence to know that the auto has been appropriately maintained. Exciting hub and when I was in Vegas I was blown away by how a lot of brides I saw walking around. Create examples of service recovery with strict instructions for personnel to meet or exceed them.
Customers' wants and budgets vary greatly, so generating high-end packages, low-end packages and in-between tends to make the service more effortlessly sellable by producing it cater to each and every customer's demands. As your automobile sits un-serviced but nevertheless in use, the put on and tear that has formed in the mechanics begins to degrade your auto even additional, and much more swiftly. They are changed to guarantee the automobile can respond in emergency scenarios and therefore keep you safe.
There are lots of organization out there that provides airport limousine service in cost-effective price tag and give you an chance to have a limo ride. The main duty of a manager is to deal with buyer complaints swiftly and effectively and keep consumer service and the division. BMW's Low-Mileage Oil Service was put in location to keep automobiles that their owners do not drive on a typical basis. We embrace the responsibility of driving or flying you, and we preserve and shield the confidentiality of those that choose our solutions. When you have arrived at the airport and collected your bags at baggage claim (if you have any) please get in touch with 206-518-8411 and let us know what numbered door you are exiting (all the doors have a tiny red sign above the doorway with an even quantity on it). The spacious, beautifully finished interior is an ideal setting for the pleasant intimacy that only this kind of vehicle affords.
After you have been below the hood, you have completed most of the car service check. The purpose I feel no one ought to give this post significantly credence is that you went on to the vehicle lot, didn't like the auto you went to see, and rather bought an additional a single that you had not researched at all. A lot of of these gorgeous icons had been designed and created by renowned sculptors under commission from the automobile producers. I usually take the super shuttle FROM the airport (simply because you never have to deal with the pickup wait) and the AirTrain there.

it was quiet here for some time. Thats because I was busy coding and enjoying getting closer to my 10.000th race :-)
But now I have some changes and new features for you to try out on the TA site:
- The headline in the main frame now is a link that you can bookmark to see exactly this page again (with new data if available of course). Also you can click this link if some settings have changed in the main frame (sort order for example) and you want to use them as default values for later selections in the navi frame.
- The "All Summed" page can now be toggled between the current list view and the latest improvements view. The latest improvements view respects filtering of vehicles and tracks, just like all other views. It also shows how the splits have changed. It is planned to implement this improvements view for the other pages, too.
- You can toggle between some important track selection sets now by clicking on another link in the headline of the main frame. If you currently have all original tracks selected, you can switch to all tracks. From all tracks you switch to DLC tracks and from there back to original tracks. From any other track selection you can switch to the original tracks set.
- On the "Player Stats" page you can now toggle between split view and compare view. The split view displays the split times. The compare view compares the times of the selected player with the vip. It is only available if you had entered a vip in the navi frame before and call the "Player Stats" page by clicking on a player name.
- Thanks to NinjaAtHome's suggestion you now see the split times on the "All Summed" page, if you have only one vehicle and one track selected.
- Some minor cosmetic changes, like moving the limits column to the bottom of the navi frame.
Finally a warning: In case you bookmarked player stats pages before, they will not work correctly now. I had to change the url parameter syntax for them slightly.
Where it was enough to write ?player=joban123&vip=Cirrus5005 before, you now need ?player_stats=1&player=joban123&vip=Cirrus5005
Sorry for any inconvenience!

The bucket in bucket design makes it easy to carry waste to the compost bin. At 9-3/4-inch high, it holds about a gallon of food scraps, but not too big to fit on top of a kitchen counter. No need to hide this modern looking container and it will always be accessible when you need it. The lid comes with a clear rubber seal to limit any offensive odors that might attract insects. A great way to get involved in recycling organic waste and keep it out of our landfills!
