The Battle of the Mareth Line or the Battle of Mareth was an attack in the Second World War by the British Eighth Army (General Bernard Montgomery) in Tunisia, against the Mareth Line held by the Italo-German 1st Army (General Giovanni Messe). It was the first big operation by the Eighth Army since the Second Battle of El Alamein 4 1⁄2 months previously. On 19 March 1943, Operation Pugilist, the first British attack, established a bridgehead but a break-out attempt was defeated by Axis counter-attacks. Pugilist established an alternative route of attack and Operation Supercharge II, an outflanking manoeuvre via the Tebaga Gap was planned. Montgomery reinforced the flanking attack, which from 26 to 31 March, forced the 1st Army to retreat to Wadi Akarit, another 40 mi (64 km) back in Tunisia.
The retreat of Panzer Army Africa (known as the Deutsch-Italienische Panzerarmee/Armata Corazzata Italo-Tedesca from October 1942) took place from 5 November 1942 – 15 February 1943.[a] On 8 November, Operation Torch began in Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia, as Panzeramee Afrika in Egypt managed to evade British outflanking moves but traffic jams, fuel shortages, poor weather and air attacks reduced the speed of the retreat to 6–7 mi (9.7–11.3 km) per day. Comando Supremo in Rome and OKW in Berlin took an optimistic view of the situation and Comando Supremo chose the Mersa-el-Brega–El Agheila position as the terminus of the retreat, despite the position having a front of 110 mi (180 km), strong points up to 5 mi (8.0 km) apart, which was too far for mutual support and only 30,000 mines. When the Panzerarmee arrived, the Afrika Korps had only 5,000 men, 35 tanks, 16 armoured cars, 12 anti-tank guns, 12 field howitzers and deliveries of only 50 long tons (51 t) of the 400 long tons (410 t) of supplies needed daily.[2]
Rommel wanted to retreat to Wadi Akarit in the Gabès area, 120 mi (190 km) further west, where the non-motorised troops could defend a narrow gap between the Mediterranean and the Chott Djerid. The tanks and motorised infantry would join the 5th Panzer Army (Colonel-General Hans-Jürgen von Arnim) further north, drive back the British First Army from Tunisia into Algeria, then swiftly return to force back the Eighth Army. At a meeting with Hitler on 28 November, Rommel discussed the proposal but only received a promise of more supplies. On the night of 11/12 December, the British attacked and on the following evening, the Panzerarmee resumed its retreat and despite the chronic fuel shortage, evaded another outflanking move. The Panzerarmee took up a defensive position at Buerat on 29 December but this was poorly fortified, wide open to an outflanking manoeuvre and vulnerable to an attack on Gabès by the First Army in southern Tunisia. The supply situation was a little better, with 152 long tons (154 t) tons of the 400-long-ton (410 t) daily requirement being delivered but 95 percent of the fuel was used distributing supplies or for withdrawals.[3]
The Long Range Desert Group (LRDG) attacked Axis supply lines and hundreds of lorries were stranded along roads for lack of fuel, while the Eighth Army massed fuel and ammunition for its next attack. On 13 January 1943, the infantry of 21st Panzer Division were sent north to the 5th Panzer Army to protect Gabès and on 15 January, the Eighth Army attacked with 450 tanks against 36 German and 57 Italian tanks. In the evening Rommel ordered another withdrawal; lack of fuel and apprehension about the threat to Gabès, led to the retreat passing beyond the Tarhuna–Homs line. Tripoli was occupied by the British on 23 January, the Axis retreat from El Alamein having covered 1,400 mi (2,300 km). On 13 February, the last Axis soldiers left Libya and on 15 February, the rearguard reached the Mareth Line, 80 mi (130 km) inside Tunisia. Comando Supremo intended that the line would be held indefinitely but Rommel considered it to be too vulnerable to another flanking move, unlike the Wadi Akarit position further back.[4]
The broken terrain of southern Tunisia, with difficult rocky ridge lines and desert, limited manoeuvre; opposite the bight where the north–south coast opens to the east, a semi-arid, scrub covered coastal plain is met inland by the Matmata Hills which lie south to north. Across the plain in a line roughly south-west to north-east was the Mareth Line, fortifications built by the French in the 1930s. In the north, the hills and line of forts terminated at the Tebaga Gap, a low pass between the Matmata Hills and the Djebel Tebaga, another line of high ground to the west of the gap running east–west.[b] North and west of this feature is the Chott el Djerid and west of the Matmata Hills, dry Jebel Dahar country and then the impassable sand of the Grand Erg Oriental. Gabès lies on the coast, where the plain meets the route from the Tebaga Gap. North of Gabès, the road to Sfax passes between the sea and the Chotts, was the only route north for the Eighth Army and was blocked by the Mareth Line.[6]
The Mareth Line followed the line of Wadi Zigzaou, a natural tank obstacle with steep banks rising up to 70 ft (21 m); the north-west side had been fortified by the French and subsequently reinforced. The wadi crosses the coastal plain from Zarat to Toujane and into the Matmata Hills beyond. In 1938, the French judged Jebel Dahar to be impassable to motorised transport and so had not extended the Mareth Line any further inland but in 1943, motor vehicles had much better performance. The British had an advantage because General Georges Catroux, the designer and garrison commander of the Mareth Line in the 1930s, was available in Algiers, to provide information and advice for the attack.[7] In the original plan, Montgomery wrote "...the object of Operation Pugilist is to destroy the enemy now opposing Eighth Army in the Mareth Line and to advance and capture Sfax".[8]
The Battle of Medenine (Unternehmen Capri/Operation Capri), was an Axis spoiling attack at Medenine in Tunisia on 6 March 1943. The operation was intended to delay an attack by the British Eighth Army on the Mareth Line. The British had been forewarned by Ultra decrypts of German wireless communications and rushed reinforcements from Tripoli and Benghazi before the Axis attack, which was a costly failure. General Erwin Rommel, the commander of Army Group Africa (Heeresgruppe Afrika), could not afford to lose forces needed for the defence of the Mareth Line and the effort was abandoned at dusk. During the night, the Eighth Army remained alert in case of another Axis attempt and sent forward patrols to reconnoitre and to demolish knocked-out Axis tanks. During the day the Luftwaffe and Regia Aeronautica had made a maximum effort with little effect against the Allied anti-aircraft defence and the Desert Air Force. On 7 March, the Axis forces began a withdrawal northwards towards the Mareth Line, the Eighth Army pursuit being slowed by rain. The Battle of Medenine was the last battle commanded by Rommel in the North African Campaign, who returned to Europe for good soon afterwards.[9]
On 19 March 1943, XXX Corps (Lieutenant-General Oliver Leese) of the Eighth Army commenced Operation Pugilist. The 50th (Northumbrian) Infantry Division (Major-General John Nichols) managed to penetrate the line held by the 136th Armoured Division Giovani Fascisti near Zarat.[10] The terrain and rain prevented the deployment of tanks, aircraft and anti-tank guns, which left the infantry isolated. A counter-attack by 15th Panzer Division and the 136th Armoured Division Giovani Fascisti on 22 March, recaptured much of the bridgehead. XXX Corps prepared a new attack towards Tallouf, in which the 4th Indian Infantry Division (Major-General Francis Tuker) was to make a night attack on 23/24 March, around the inland end of the line. This would coincide with the wide left hook manoeuvre Montgomery was planning.[11]
In early January 1943, a LRDG patrol had found a pass into the Jebel Dahar, which was given the name Wilder's Gap. A later patrol penetrated to the Tebaga Gap and proved that the route was practicable. The patrol demonstrated the weakness of the Axis defences by going further north to Gafsa and on 2 February, made contact with the First Army which was advancing from the west. Montgomery reinforced the 2nd New Zealand Division (Lieutenant-General Bernard Freyberg) and renamed it the New Zealand Corps, for an attack through the Matmata Hills, via Wilder's Gap, into the Jebel Dahar, with the assembly concealed from Axis reconnaissance. Staff from X Corps (Lieutenant-General Brian Horrocks) were seconded to provide adequate HQ personnel for the new New Zealand Corps, which caused some friction between the two generals.[12]
The New Zealand Corps advance was planned in three stages, from 19 March, a 20 mi (32 km) night march to Wadi bel Krecheb, a second night march of 40 mi (64 km) to just short of the Tebaga Gap and then the capture of the entrance to the gap at first light on 21 March or as soon as possible afterwards. The corps would then advance to El Hamma, which overlooked the coast road north of Gabès. The flank of the advance was to be protected by Free French forces (General Philippe Leclerc) and the 1st King's Dragoon Guards. An attack by X Corps from El Hamma to Gabès would cut off the 1st Army defending the Mareth positions and provide the New Zealand Corps with the opportunity to advance to Sfax 80 mi (130 km) up the coast from Gabès and the landing grounds on the west side of the town.[13]
During planning, emphasis was laid on the need for surprise and the ability to Blitz Axis positions. The corps had relatively few infantry and was reliant on its artillery to break Axis troop concentrations and morale. Extensive efforts were made to co-ordinate air support by fighter and bomber aircraft. A simultaneous frontal attack by XXX Corps on the Mareth Line would divide enemy attention and hamper an Axis counter-attack. The II US Corps of the First Army, advancing from the west through El Guettar was to threaten Axis communications and pin down reinforcements from the Sfax area.[14]
The New Zealand Corps engaged the Axis troops in the Tebaga Gap on 21 March but progress over the next four days against the 164th Leichtes Afrika Division and 21st Panzer Division was very slow, although the entrance to the gap was secured. On the Mareth Line, XXX Corps made some progress but there was no breakthrough. On 23 March, Montgomery ordered the 1st Armoured Division (Major-General Raymond Briggs) of X Corps to reinforce the New Zealand Corps from reserve, where it was waiting to exploit the anticipated breakthrough either by XXX Corps or the New Zealand Corps and Horrocks, with the X Corps Headquarters to take control of operations in the Tebaga Gap.[15]
Operation Supercharge II was planned to start on the afternoon of 26 March, with a preliminary operation on the night of 25/26 March to capture Height 184. The New Zealand Corps was to attack into the Tebaga Gap on a two-brigade front and capture the Axis defences from Djebel Tebaga to Djebel Melab, which would be exploited by the 1st Armoured Division.[16] After assembling during the night and lying in concealed positions all day, the 5th New Zealand Brigade was to attack on the right and the 6th New Zealand Brigade on the left, preceded by the 8th Armoured Brigade and a creeping barrage by the New Zealand and X Corps artillery. The attacking troops were to move to high ground 2,000 yd (1,800 m) forward and then to a second objective at a wadi 2,500 yd (2,300 m) further on. The 1st Armoured Division, led by the 2nd Armoured Brigade, was to move through at 6:15 p.m. to an area 3,000 yd (2,700 m) beyond the New Zealand Corps final objective and as soon as the moon rose (at about 11:15 p.m.), advance on El Hamma.[17]
RAF heavy bombers would begin harassment of the Axis defenders led by General Messe the night before, with attacks on transport and communications until 3:30 p.m. Day bombers would then begin low-altitude pattern bombing, to add to Axis disorganisation, followed by relays of fighter-bombers every 15 minutes for 2 1⁄2 hours. Spitfires would escort the bombers and fighter-bombers and the remainder of the Northwest African Tactical Air Force (NATAF) would bomb Axis airfields. An RAF forward observation officer was to brief pilots by nominating landmarks, marking targets with red and blue smoke; friendly troops were to use orange smoke and the artillery would fire smoke shells to signal to the aircrews. On 24 March, Arnim doubted that an Eighth Army attack was likely and was more concerned about Maknassy further north. Despite the slow advance in the south, Arnim wanted the 1st Army to withdraw to Wadi Akarit on 25 March but Liebenstein and Messe preferred to counter-attack with the 15th Panzer Division. The threat to Maknassy and the possibility of the II US Corps reaching Gabès and cutting off the 1st Army, meant that they had to retire from Mareth and then from Tebaga.[18]
Height 184 fell at 2:50 a.m. to the 21st New Zealand Battalion and the Allied artillery commenced firing at 4:00 p.m.. The attack began with the 8th Armoured Brigade, followed by infantry battalion carriers and then infantry on foot. It appeared that the 164th Light and 21st Panzer divisions had not expected a daylight assault and had been surprised; the setting sun, wind and dust had made observation difficult. The British tanks had been ordered to press on and the infantry also managed a quick pace, arriving on the first objective and then kept going, despite increasing resistance and delays. An armoured regiment pressed on to Wadi Aisoub beyond the second objective, followed by the 23rd New Zealand Battalion. On the left, a minefield covered by anti-tank guns was bypassed on both sides to close up to the second objective, clearing a gap for the 1st Armoured Division, despite many Axis posts holding out in the vicinity.[19]
By dark a gap in the defences had been made; pausing until moonrise at 11:00 p.m., the 1st Armoured Division advanced through the gap and rapidly moved on El Hamma, 20 mi (32 km) to the north-east, halfway to Gabès on the coast. On the morning of 27 March, the 15th Panzer Division was brought out of reserve to counter-attack the New Zealand Corps on their right flank. By 9:00 a.m., the attack had been repulsed and the New Zealand Corps advanced into the hills on their right. By the evening of 27 March, German resistance had been broken and the line of communication forward to the 1st Armoured Division secured, the division having been halted by the defences of El Hamma, while the tanks had waited for the moonlight. Freyberg persuaded Horrocks that the New Zealand Corps, en route to El Hamma to link with the 1st Armoured Division, should branch off to the right to avoid the Axis defences at El Hamma and head across the broken ground direct to Gabès.[20]
By 28 March, General Messe gave the order that all Axis forces on the Mareth Line be withdrawn to face the X and New Zealand corps on their right flank but by holding up the 1st Armoured Division at El Hamma, managed to avoid encirclement. On 29 March, the New Zealand Corps took Gabès, which forced a further Axis withdrawal to a new line 15 mi (24 km) to the rear of Gabès at Wadi Akarit, while the 164th Light, 15th Panzer and 21st Panzer divisions fought rearguard actions. El Hamma was evacuated on 29 March, leaving the way open for the 1st Armoured Division to advance northward with the New Zealand Corps on their right.[21]
On 31 March, Operation Supercharge II was terminated, having cost the Eighth Army 4,000 casualties, many from the 50th Division and a large number of tanks; the New Zealand Corps lost 51 tanks and 945 men.[22] The corps was disbanded and its elements were distributed between X and XXX corps.[23] On 30 March, Montgomery sent the following message to Freyberg,
My very best congratulations to NZ Corps and 10 Corps on splendid results achieved by the left hook. These results have led to the complete disintegration of the enemy resistance and the whole Mareth position. Give my congratulations to all your officers and men, and tell them how pleased I am with all they have done.— Montgomery[24]
The Axis forces, despite withdrawing in relatively good order, lost over 7,000 prisoners, of whom 2,500 were German.[25] The 15th Panzer Division had suffered many losses, the 164th Leichtes Afrika Division lost most of its weapons and vehicles. The 80th Infantry Division La Spezia suffered losses of nearly 50 percent and the 16th Infantry Division Pistoia was almost annihilated and several Italian divisions were amalgamated.[26][27] The 1st Army withdrew in good order to Wadi Akarit.

Asher Asher
Asher Asher (16 February 1837 – 7 January 1889), born in Glasgow, was the first Scottish Jew to enter the medical profession. The only book he published was The Jewish Rite of Circumcision (1873). He died in London, England.
Asher Asher was educated at the Royal High School. He was a prominent member of the local Jewish congregation, as its Honorary Secretary. Then, he abandoned for studying medicine at the University of Edinburgh, graduating as Doctor of Medicine in 1856, as the first Jewish doctor of Scotland. He practiced at Glasgow and the nearby Bishopbriggs, a mining town.[1]
In 1862, Asher Asher moved to London and became medical officer of the Jewish Board of Guardians, where he helped providing medical care for poor Jews, beside the founder, Dr. Canstatt.[2] In 1866 was appointed secretary of the Great Synagogue. About this time the idea of a union of the various London synagogues had been put forward, chiefly by Lionel L. Cohen; and Asher devoted himself to the project with intense energy. In March, 1870, he became first secretary of the United Synagogue, contributing largely to the success of that institution — he wrote the introduction to the by-laws of the constituent synagogues, and practically founded its visitation committee. This office he retained until his death.
Owing to Asher's intimate relations with the Rothschilds, in his capacity of medical attendant, unofficial almoner, and personal friend, his advice was generally followed by them in communal matters. He was connected with a large number of institutions in the London community, and may be regarded as one of its organizers. Looking for better conditions for Jewish immigrants, Asher undertook journeys to Palestine, the United States, and Russia, in company of Samuel Montagu. Particularly, Asher was pledged about the Jewish communities of Eastern Europe. After the visit to Palestine he also wrote a report on the condition of affairs in Jerusalem, which effected much good. His sympathetic nature attracted to him most of the young men of ability of the rising generation, and upon them he exerted great influence. Asher wrote much for the Jewish press, chiefly under the pen-name "Aliquis."

With Christmas behind us, short days, long nights and no prospect of a bank holiday for another few months, it's not uncommon to hear people suffering with the "January blues".
However, this phrase often trivialises the issue of feeling low in mood or suffering with depression.
The reality is, those feeling chronically low in mood or suffering with depression it can be highly debilitating and has a massive impact on quality of life.
But is there anything we can do in our diets to help boost our moods with food? Check out a few of our top tips!
By eating regularly we can regulate our blood sugar levels better and provide our body with a steady supply of nutrition and calories to sustain us through the day. Focus on having low glycaemic (low GI), slow releasing carbohydrates to help avoid sharp rises and falls in blood sugar levels.
Don't exclude food groups – all are important! Carbohydrates have had a lot of bad press in recent years, with many people advocating cutting out this food group altogether. The reality is, carbohydrates get broken down into glucose which is the brain's primary energy source. Therefore, by not having enough carbohydrate in the diet, we can end up feeling fatigued and unable to concentrate.
So remember, to fuel your brain and nourish your body we need a combination of all food groups to obtain the nutrition we need. Try to have carbohydrates, fat and protein at every meal.
Omega-3 and omega-6 are both polyunsaturated fatty acids which are both important for healthy brain function. Research has shown that low levels of omega-3 have been linked with a higher incidence of depression (3-5).
Omega-3 is essential for the production of neurotrophic factors which regulate the growth of brain cells. It is also believed that omega-3 can affect gene expression.
For more information on omega-3, click here.
Protein is made up of amino acids, which make up the chemicals your brain needs to regulate your thoughts and feelings.
Good sources include:

Vitamin D plays a vital role in preventing rickets in children and osteomalacia, promoting calcium absorption, bone growth and bone remodelling. It is involved in cell growth, genetic coding and functioning, neuromuscular functioning, immune functioning and reducing inflammation.
Some evidence which suggests an association between low vitamin D levels and osteoporosis, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, tuberculosis, multiple sclerosis, preeclampsia and cancer.
In July 2016, Public Health England released updated guidelines on the recommendations for vitamin D:
Micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) all play an important role in the body. However, the following listed below are key to help ensure we have plenty of energy and maintain healthy brain function which together can help regulate our mood.
For more information, click here.
Most of us don't drink enough, which can massively impact our mood and ability to concentrate. Try to aim for ~ 1.5-2 L fluid everyday.
A lack of fluid can lead to :

text: The fitLight Trainer™ is a flexible wireless training system that can be adapted and configured for any sport and many healthcare applications, with the goal of improving hand/eye co-ordination, agility, strength and conditioning, and controlled rehabilitation from injuries. The system involves a series of lights that flash on and then are deactivated by either touching or covering them. The amount of time it takes to deactivate them is measured and calculated as a reaction time. Myriad combinations of light patterns and spatial orientations can be used to test and train reaction times and hand-eye coordination. Results can be quantified and subsequently analyzed. This type of training is frequently used with pro athletes and is used extensively at Speedlab National Center, the professional athletics subsidiary of the Delray Center. This is one example of "trickle down" technology that originated in professional sports and was later found to have applications in depression treatment and enhancing brain performance. Fitlight training can improve fine motor control & coordination, increase movement & mobility, monitor movement capabilities, and establish baseline norms to track progression of performance and motivate further improvement.


text: For many who are new to sudoku usa today, finding a solution can be a complete mystery. On one hand, with so many numbers, sudoku usa today seems very mathematical. On the other hand, without the appropriate solution techniques, it can amount to a lot of guessing and checking. How to Solve a sudoku usa today ? Starting with Easy Hints 1. Look for a single empty in a larger square. Check each square to see if it has a single square open. If it does, it's easy to fill in. Just figure out what number is missing from 1 to 9. For example, if a larger square has numbers 1-3 and 5-9 of sudoku usa today, you know it's missing the number "4," which you can fill in. 2. Check for singular empty squares in the rows and columns. Run your finger down each row and column to see if any of them only have 1 square open. If a row does, figure out which number from 1 to 9 is missing in that row or column and fill it in. If a column has numbers 1-7 and 9, you know it's missing the number "8," which you can fill in. 3. Scan rows or columns to fill in larger squares. Look at a row of 3 large squares of sudoku usa today. Check for a number that's repeated 2 times in different squares. Run your fingers along the rows that contain that number. The third large square must contain the same number, but it can't be in 1 of the 2 rows you're tracing. It must be in the third row. Sometimes, 2 other numbers will be in that row, so you can easily fill in the number you're scanning. If "8" is repeated in 2 squares, look for that number in the third square. Run your finger down the rows with each "8," as you know the "8" can't be in those rows in the third large square. 4. Add the opposite direction. Once you've got the hang of scanning across just rows or columns, add the other direction as well. Take the previous example with a slight difference. When you get to the third square, it only has 1 number filled in in the open row. In that case, trace down the columns. See if the number you're trying to fill in is in 1 of the columns. In that case, you know it can't go in that column and must go in the other one. 5. Work in groups of numbers. That is, if you see that you have a lot of one number on the board, it can help to start trying to fill in the rest of that number. Say you have a large number of 5s on the board. Use your scanning techniques to fill in as many 5s as you can. Sudoku usa today Solver – Advanced sudoku usa today Solving Techniques and Tips.

Title: One Call Away
Author: Felice Stevens
Genre: M/M Romance
Release Date: April 28, 2017
When a brutal attack from a jealous competitor leaves Noah Strauss, a darling of the modeling world, physically scarred and emotionally damaged, he quits the runway to become a psychologist. Using his contacts from his time in the spotlight, he creates One Call Away, a radio show dedicated to gay men looking for love, advice or someone to talk to. But with secrets of his own and a mother who refuses to understand the career path he's chosen, the one person Noah can't seem to help is himself.
On a drunken dare from the senior partner's grandson, Oren Leavitt calls Noah's radio show, pretending to be gay. Only Oren isn't certain if he's pretending. He's left his strict Orthodox Jewish upbringing behind, but the guilt remains. Guilt that his actions have prevented his sister from finding a husband and guilt that he's failed his parents. Talking to "Dr. Noah" helps, and as he finds himself calling the man, again and again, he knows he must be honest. But Oren is unsure if he's lying to Noah or himself.
For Noah, trust is paramount; he's been deceived in his personal and professional life and while he desperately wants to help Oren, he also finds himself falling for the sweet and tortured man. Oren is trapped: he risks losing his job and more importantly the love and security of his family but knows he can't hide if he wants to be with Noah. When unresolved heartaches from the past rise up to control the present, Noah and Oren discover that love often comes from the most unexpected places, and sometimes a call for help not only saves a life, it can be a new and beautiful beginning.

Let's Get Serious About Live Instructor-led Training
September 8, 2015 in Author, Dale Ludwig, News, Posts for Buyers, Talent Development, The Orderly Conversation, Training
Dale Ludwig, Founder of Turpin Communication and Co-author of The Orderly Conversation was just published in Training Industry Magazine.
Here's an excerpt.
Let's Get Serious About Live Instructor-led Training
With so many modes of training delivery available to learning and development (L&D) professionals – online, blended, synchronous, asynchronous, mobile – it's common to ask whether a traditional face-to-face workshop is necessary to meet the needs of the business. In many cases, it's not. When it is, though, we have a responsibility to make this mode of delivery worth the investment in time and resources.
To that end, training professionals spend a lot of time thinking about the needs of adult learners. What some of them do not fully take into account, though, is that the adults with whom they work are not merely "adults." They are Busy People at Work.
These learners have unique perspectives and specific needs. Unlike adults in non-business learning environments, they view training as a job responsibility, important for their work and their advancement, and are very busy. Time spent in training is time away from their regular responsibilities. Understanding and empathy for this type of learner must be the driving forces behind training design and delivery. When they are, trainers earn the trust and good will of their learners. Without trust and good will, learners check out of the process.
The article goes on to discuss five key concepts for designing and delivering training for Busy People at Work.
- Make it a conversation.
- Plan to succeed on two levels.
- Frame the conversation.
- Be engaged and responsive.
- Don't let activities destroy good will.
Read the full article, found on page 21, here.

Now is your chance to visit the "Garden of France". With over 100 chateaux to choose from, the Loire Valley is a rich plethora of Renaissance and Enlightenment architectural Masterpieces, therefore we have designed this tour to give you a unique view of the best castles that this magical region has to offer: the majestic Chambord; the ethereally beautiful Chenonceau and the powerfully forged Amboise.
In the comfort of one of our minibuses your driver-guide will take you to the Loire, regaling you with anecdotes of regional history, architectural features you will see on your castle visits and about the people who had lived in them. Once you arrive at the Châteaux you will be given free time to explore all three at your own pace.
Chambord is the most majestic of the Châteaux you will see, boasting massive medieval towers perfectly blended with Renaissance elegance. Set in 13,000 acres of parkland this former royal residence represents the pinnacle of France's 16th century architectural revolution, and the double helix spiral staircase at the heart of the
Château, attributed to Leonardo Di Vinci is simply mind-blowing.
Amboise, with its spectacular view over the Loire, is famous for being the last resting place of one of history's most famous men: Leonardo Da Vinci and with its massive gothic defensive features it evokes that bygone era of knights on horseback.
Then you will be given some free time in the Village at the foot of the Castle to wander and enjoy your Lunch break after a wine tasting.
Chenonceau, above all stands out as the most beautiful of the Châteaux of the Loire as it extends with infinite grace over the waters of the river Cher. With its ornately carved decoration and history of romance and rivalry, this Château lives up to its passionate reputation and has been seducing visitors for hundreds of years.
In the winter why not take advantage of the open wood fires which instantly transport you back to the days when these three castles where inhabited by some of France's most famous Renaissance Kings and Queens; wander through the myriad of tapestry covered rooms, down corridors lined with royal portraits and up the spiraling staircases which make this architectural period so exciting. Once summer arrives these chateaux really come alive as their beautifully manicured gardens come into bloom which you can stroll around at your leisure. Chenonceau is especially famous for its Renaissance sculptured gardens so prized by Catherine de Medici.
Your full-day tour ends with return transport to the Original Departure Point in Paris.

IKON Announces EFI Velocity 110 for High Volume Digital Print Environments
Friday, November 02, 2001
VALLEY FORGE, Pa., Nov. 1 -- IKON Office Solutions today announced immediate availability of the EFI Velocity(TM) 110 from IKON -- a robust front-end system that provides advanced control over production-level workflow. The Velocity 110 is designed to manage document input, manipulation and output via the EFI Velocity Workstation and delivers fully composed documents to the Canon imageRUNNER 110 (iR110) with an EFI Fiery PS110 RIP included, and any other EFI-driven imaging device, color or black-and-white. The Velocity 110 solution will allow high-volume environments to: integrate color in a cost-effective manner; leverage the flexibility of Adobe PDF technology to create customized files from paper-based and electronic originals; reduce job turnaround times by load balancing to achieve increased speed; grow output volume capacity; and, overall, offer a more effective way to leverage equipment investments. "Customers looking for a production printing solution that integrates monochrome and color with PDF workflow and that extends speed and volume capabilities, will see great benefits from the Velocity 110,'' said Cathy Lewis, IKON Senior Vice President of Marketing. "Velocity from IKON should be a welcome addition and compliment to customer environments with existing EFI-driven devices as well as serve as the foundation for new operations.'' A typical Velocity-enabled workflow might utilize Velocity Scan(TM) to import documents into a digital workflow, display the images in Velocity Build(TM) to add/delete pages within the file or other scanned/electronic documents, re-order pages and manipulate content. An operator could then could create a booklet via Velocity's imposition technology and split print the document using Velocity Balance(TM), sending standard pages and tabs to the Canon iR 110 and color covers to the Ricoh Aficio Color 6513 (runs up to 140 lb. index stock). The document could then be merged via the Canon iR 110 Inserter and finished with Canon's inline Booklet Maker, delivering end-to-end document production capabilities. EFI Velocity 110 from IKON leverages operator-defined, rules-based routing to quickly and cost-efficiently fulfill virtually any application. The Canon iR 110 can be paired with another monochrome device to improve black-and-white speed and volume, or a color device to enable production of cost-effective color documents. The integration of optional Velocity modules, such as Velocity Estimate(TM), adds job cost estimating, variable data and more. "Gone are the days of mass producing, warehousing, distributing and scrapping,'' said Ed Borgo, Vice President of Production Marketing for IKON Office Solutions. "Now, if the application demands it, the Velocity 110 solution can provide on-demand electronic job layout, tabs and color covers to create a high volume, custom booklet in short order.'' Visit IKON at Xplor, Booth #701, and see the Velocity 110 distribute jobs to a Canon imageRUNNER 110 and two IKON-exclusive EDOX-driven Canon CLC 5000s - a 110 ppm monochrome/100 ppm color solution.

Would you like to understand what is happening to you? Would you like to gain a better understanding of who you are and the relationships you have?
I provide a quiet, peaceful and confidential space in which we can explore the issues which are concerning you.
I will not judge you.
It could be that you are having difficulties with relationships with other people. I specialise in supporting people with their relationships. Sometimes they can seem very complex and you can be at a loss in how to move forward.
You may have suffered a loss that you can't adjust to. Or, you may be unhappy for no apparent reason. We can work on these things together.
Low- self esteem, depression, relationship issues, bullying, addictions, bereavement, anger management, anxiety, abuse - these are the most frequent types of issues I encounter in my work.
Listening is a fundamental part of counselling and I will actively listen, giving feedback from time to time, guiding you to explore the problem you bring, allowing you to come to a new understanding of what is happening to you and why. There will be no rush, you can go at your own pace.
Counselling offers the opportunity to explore your past and present experiences and how they may be impacting on how your life is now.
I won't tell you what to do, but I will help you to make decisions or discover what is underneath what is happening to you for yourself.
Why not take this opportunity to talk through what is on your mind in a safe and confidential environment with me, your counsellor?
I value your privacy – all calls and emails are dealt with by me alone and are strictly confidential.
I offer a FREE email back up service if it is required.
So give me a call today so we can make a start on giving you a better future.
I am fully qualified as a Person Centered counsellor. You can talk about your life without fear of being either judged or told what to do.
I am an accredited member of BACP.
Cultural Issues
The first session is always FREE if you choose to come for half an hour. in which time you can decide if counselling is what you want at the present time. If you choose to stay for the whole 50 minute session, there will be a charge as normal.
The charges are;
£40 for one client; 50 min session
£60 for a couple; 50 min session
£70 for Supervision; 90 min session
£25 for students on a counselling course requiring personal counselling; 50 min session
Couples Counselling/Relationship Issues
If a relationship starts to break down, it can really help to come to see me.
I will be happy to offer my skills to all couples, including same sex partners, to help you both through this difficult time in your relationship.
Whilst in therapy, you will get the chance to speak of your feelings for each other and your feelings about your relationship.
By coming to see me, you will be taking very important steps that can help to bring about reconciliation between you.
If you come to feel that that is not possible or not what you want, then counselling can help you achieve an amicable split. This can be particularly valuable when there are children and property involved.
The sooner you start the more chance you have of reaching the successful outcome you are hoping for.

Wedding is one of the most important events in your life and you definitely want to save the sweet memories for the rest of your lives. We prepared some awesome wedding photo ideas that will definitely make your pictures stand out and bring a lot of fun along the way. Don't forget to collect all the memories after the ceremony in an elegant photo book – the first documented story of your new family.
Get your wedding photo book!
For some brides, wedding photoshoot is even more important than all the "I do" part – and we can feel them, these are the first photo memories of the new family – something to hold on to and pass to the future generations. Whether you are getting married soon or photographing a wedding ceremony, these creative wedding photo ideas will bring a breath of fresh air to traditional formal poses.
Hit the road!
Pictures on the road not only look stunningly, they also have a metaphorical meaning: That's the road you are stepping on to go further together, hand in hand.
This "Abbey Road" reference is really easy to copy and the picture will turn out just great.
"A couple on the road" composition makes the photo look majestic creating a feeling like there are only two of you in the world.
Bridesmaids and best men.
Instead of traditional jumping photos, try playing with the composition, colors around and the angles. For instance, if there is water around, reflection can create an interesting twist:
Try this idea of a time lapse photo:
Or a "bomb explosion":
Stress the beauty of nature around by taking a photo from the distance.
Ask your best men to goof around:
And goof some more.
Ask bridesmaids to write how you know each other on small chalkboards.
Up & down.
When taking photos, never stop experimenting with angles and perspectives. Very often a simple composition will take your breath away if you shoot it from the bird's eye view.
Shots from below also deserve some credit – they usually look super fun and creative.
Mirror reflections.
Using mirror in your photoshoot is a proven method many photographers use. It can be a classical shot.
Or something more creative.
Shoot in style.
Pick outfits and accessories that fit the colors of pictorial location or wedding venue – it will definitely add some style to your photos.
Invite furry models.
Are there animals around? Include their adorable faces in the photoshoot.
How about some dog love?
Or a candid photo with a random cat.
A dramatic picture with a horse.
Or maybe someone more exotic.
Or A LOT more exotic.
Theme it up!
Weddings are always more fun with a theme, think of something that defines your couple, that makes you one-of-a-kind. Maybe you share hobbies or tastes? Or is there an interesting story behind your first date? Come up with a cool theme and brainstorm on the fun activities around it.
Get inspired by these brave couples who arranged: A "Star Wars" wedding.
A "Lord of the Rings" wedding.
A "Harry Potter" wedding.
A "Little Mermaid" wedding.
A gangster-style wedding.
And this reggae festival themed wedding.
Use props.
With or without a theme, fun props will definitely liven up your photos and the party itself!
Try candy floss.
An umbrella.
Or whatever else you manage to find.
Include the special guests.
Don't forget about some candid shots with parents.
And with kids.
Capture all the fun.
After all, having a fun day that you will remeber for years to come is really what matters.
Preserve the great memories forever!
"Photos that haven't been printed do not exist" – collect all the beautiful moments from the Big Day in a stylish photo book! You will enjoy flipping through its pages recollecting all the candid, funny, heartwarming moments that you and your loved ones shared together. Create a first photo book of your new family!

It's hard to believe that April is actually here, but it is.
Just the other day we were celebrating the start of the new year. People had resolutions and aspirations to make 2019 their best year yet. And maybe you are one of those people and I hope the year continues to carry hope and promise for you.
I had the opportunity and privilege to attend OWIT International Spring Retreat in Washington, DC in March. I serve as the Vice President-Chapter Development, and my role is to champion new chapters in around the world. Currently, I am working with Brazil, Mexico, Zimbabwe and Nepal and I am working hard to bring them on board before our annual conference in October, 2019. As I work with these different groups of great women I discovered that Action breeds Clarity. I remember my conversation with one of the upcoming presidents. They were excited but apprehensive about how the process would unfold as she had never led such an initiative but as we continued engaging we started finding different options of how an OWIT chapter could work in her country, as well as how she could position it for strategic partnerships and add more value to members in her country and in the global network, something she hadn't quite seen at the onset of the process.
On every call we have gained more clarity as she has shared the steps she is taking as well as her fears and apprehensions. We have celebrated the progress and found ways to overcome the fear which has been a set of steps she has had to take.
As a business coach, I meet people regularly who feel stuck due to lack of clarity. They book a coaching session because they need clarity and I have discovered that despite the absence of clarity there is always a place to start which often involves an action step and when that action is taken, clarity always sets in!
Where are you feeling stuck currently?
What was the last thing you felt like doing but stopped because you felt unsure or unclear?
Why did you stop? and can you go back and take the step, no matter how small it seems in the bigger scheme of things?
When you feel stuck find a starting point and take the next step or find help. You can book a complimentary breakthrough session with me here

Dear Friend,
As I sit here writing this letter, we have nearly twenty families needing to be adopted for our Christmas Adopt a Family program and it is not even December yet. As I add each family to our list, I am reminded that each of these families comes with a story, and all of their stories tell a tale of difficult circumstances thrust upon them by life, or the aftermath of a family member's poor decisions that have left them struggling to get by. Their stories sound like this:
My hours were cut at work and I am having trouble paying bills and feeding my family. It's me, my son (16yrs) and daughter (3yrs). My daughters birthday is 8 days before Christmas and I am stressing on how I am going to be able to buy her birthday presents, Christmas presents for her and my son, plus pay the bills due for December. If I could get help for just a month, that would be a huge help. ~Rochelle
I'm a single mother of 5 babies. Recently was evicted from my home. I had to move in with my dad who's on disability. We're blessed that he was able to let us stay here until I can find another place. I'm trying to find a job but daycare is outrageous. I have 3 little girls under the age of 3. Trying to do anything I can to give them a good Christmas. I know there are other kids who need Christmas, I just want to be able to give mine a good one, for once. ~Kelsey
I am a single disabled mom of three my oldest girl is 20, My son is 17, and my youngest girl is 6. I have Lupus. My son is also disabled he was born with albinism and is legally blind he also was diagnosed with severe autism.We live solely on disability and I am seeking any assistance with the holidays or just basic needs. I am currently struggling to keep our home of 11 years I am back one month on my mortgage payment. This is a big fear of mine because this change can cause my son to regress(he was nonverbal for half of his life by the grace of God he has a voice now and has healed tremendously)..any help or referral will be a blessing ~Misty
Their stories are real, and often difficult to hear, and while we, as a ministry, can't rewrite their story, it is my passion to add faith, joy, and love to their storyline. As the holiday season approaches and our list continues to grow, I am grateful that I have the privilege and opportunity to participate in bringing God's kingdom to earth and use the "plenty" that He has given us to bring a message of God's love to those who so desperately need it this holiday season. Friend, I don't want you to miss the fact that this program is so much more than providing gifts for a family. It is about planting a seed of the Gospel in the hearts of these parents that will hopefully be passed on to their children. It also serves us as a ministry in initiating new relationships with those within our community.
I would ask you to consider adopting a family individually or with a group of friends/colleagues because there is nothing better than participating in kingdom work. Financial donations of any amount are also very appreciated as we are able to use the funds to purchase more gifts and clothes for families. For more information on ways you can participate in this program or if you are interested in donating or adopting a family, please visit our events page on our website, www.noheartleftbehind.com.
The Adopt a Family program is just one avenue of our CARE ministry that allows us to reach out to families in need and share God's hope and love with them. Like others at Thanksgiving, I take pause to reflect on all that I am thankful for and as always, I am so thankful for you, our supporters. Our holiday outreach would not be successful without you and the prayers and support you give year round are a blessing. We are thankful that you continue to believe in the heart of our ministry. As the year comes to a close, and you consider your end of the year giving, we ask that you would prayerfully consider giving a tax-deductible financial gift to support the work of No Heart Left Behind. May you live grateful and have a blessed Thanksgiving with your family and friends.
In His Grip,
Abby Shields
P.S.-We are once again partnering with Faith Bible's Turkey Train to help serve families in need for Thanksgiving. If you would like to donate items, please see list below. NHLB also has reserved meals available for families in need, so contact Abby if you know of a family who needs assistance for Thanksgiving.

"Born Again" What it means to me.
It all starts with Adam who was created pure and holy. He disobeyed and brought disobedience and the sin nature into mankind (selfishness, the drive to do what we are told not to do).
Every human, because of Adam�s sin, is born with a bondage to selfishness and disobedience. We have all sinned and come up short when it comes to pleasing God and doing His will. There have been very few humans that have been able to please God since creation and be called perfect (complete) in the eyes of God. Noah was one of several, who were called perfect. �Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.�
Jesus Christ was sent into the world, even as a second Adam, (born of a woman, without a man) by the power of the Holy Spirit. He was born without a bondage to sin, which comes through the seed of the man. He was born pure and holy, even as Adam was created pure and holy.
As Eve was tempted, so Jesus was tempted in all ways, but He did not disobey or give in to selfishness and disobedience. His passion, always, was to do the will of the Father, even in the face of a horrible death and separation from the Father, as He became sin for mankind. (Eve was enticed by the desire for wisdom, equality with God, discontentment, beauty, and a belief that she or someone else knew better than God; the idea that God was keeping her and Adam from being all that they could be by withholding the knowledge of good and evil.)
Jesus� sacrifice made it possible for mankind to be bought back (To enable the return of the relationship that man had with God before Satan�s deception.) to be born again, to be even as Jesus was, in His Spirit, at birth, a brand new, pure and holy, �spiritual baby�. Because of Jesus, man, repentance and an active belief, could have all past sins wiped out and be free from the bondage to selfishness and disobedience (sin).
The Laws of God were now placed in the heart (the thoughts or feelings (mind)) of mankind; a new covenant was established, a new accountability. God now evaluated man by what he meditated on in his mind, his motives (the heart). Sin was not based on the action against a written rule, sin was based on the workings of the mind and feelings before it became an action.
The Kingdom of God was now brought to earth. If a man repented (turned away from selfishness and disobedience), he could become the dwelling place of God, even as Jesus had the Spirit of the Father dwelling in Him so the repentant man, who chose to follow, submit to and obey Christ�s teachings, could have the Spirit of Christ living within their shell of clay.
When an individual, as Jesus tells us in the book of John, is grafted into His vine, he is �in� Christ, because of the graft (new birth). Jesus said that if we did not eat His flesh and drink His blood we could not have life. The �sap� of the vine is the life, the very essence of what Jesus is, which begins to flow through the branch that is grafted into Christ.
The Father is the gardener that cares for the vine and branches.
The branches that produce fruit, the Father prunes, in order for the branch to produce more and better fruit.
The branches that do not produce fruit the Father cuts off. They are gathered up and burned.
If a branch is living from the �sap� flowing from the vine, the branch will produce the fruit of the vine, Jesus Christ. The branch will look just like the vine and produce the fruit of the vine.
The branch �must� stay grafted by obeying the Holy Spirit and allowing the sap of the Holy Spirit to daily, 24/7, flow and feed his meditations! If the flow of spiritual sap should ever slow down, the branch will stop producing fruit and eventually die. The Gardener will cut it off; it will be burned.
Does any branch produce fruit of its own power or efforts? No, not any real branch! John 6:48-65 (The only way that you can really understand these concepts is if the Holy Spirit reveals them to you; the Father calls you; to the world it is foolishness.)
The fruit of the branch is produced from and because of, that which is flowing within the branch; the influences on which the will and mind are feeding, meditating on and obeying; or yielding to.
Matthew tells us that Jesus said, "Watch out for false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are voracious wolves. You will recognize them by their fruit. Grapes are not gathered from thorns or figs from thistles, are they? In the same way, every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree is not able to bear bad fruit, nor a bad tree to bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. So then, you will recognize them by their fruit.�
John tells us, �Now by this we know that we have come to know God: if we keep his commandments. The one who says "I have come to know God" and yet does not keep his commandments is a liar, and the truth is not in such a person. But whoever obeys his word, truly in this person the love of God has been perfected. By this we know that we are in him. The one who says he resides in God ought himself to walk just as Jesus walked.�
�Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him, because all that is in the world (the desire of the flesh and the desire of the eyes and the arrogance produced by material possessions) is not from the Father, but is from the world. And the world is passing away with all its desires, but the person who does the will of God remains forever.�
��everyone who has this hope focused on him purifies himself, just as Jesus is pure.�
�Everyone who practices sin also practices lawlessness; indeed, sin is lawlessness. And you know that Jesus was revealed to take away sins, and in him there is no sin. Everyone who resides in him does not sin; everyone who sins has neither seen him nor known him.�
James tells us that, �whoever knows what is good to do and does not do it is guilty of sin.�
