Martin Blasko, with Dv-Giochi's blessing, has finished a Czech expansion to BANG! with their local publisher ALBI. It is only out in Europe (in Czech only), and no shipping is provided by the publisher to the United States. However, I have been working with Blasko to have decks shipped to the United States. If you have any interest in a copy, e-mail me and I will try to work something out.
I have worked with Blasko to provide an English translation of Valley of Shadows. The expansion does not add any new mechanics to the game; all cards are the typical blue, brown, and character cards. There will not be any new green cards. Here are 2 examples of how the cards look in Czech.
I will be providing a translation that can easily be printed over stickers to be applied to the czech titles and text. Instead of stickers, you could also print the translation off on paper and lay it over the cards in card sleeves (or tape the paper cut-outs to the cards; not an optimal choice for shuffling).
- Mick Defender (4 LP): When Mick is the sole target of any card besides BANG!, he may play a Missed! to avoid that card's effect. NOTE: This would apply to Knife, Punch, Buffalo Rifle, Springfield, Derringer, Pepperbox, Panic!, Cat Balou, Duel, Rag Time, Conestoga, Can Can, Bounty, and Prison.
- Evelyn The Bang (4 LP): This one is hard to understand. Apparently, During her drawing phase, she may draw 1 less card to Punch. Punch, of course, means she is banging! a player seen at distance 1.
- Henry Block (4 LP): Anytime a player discards or steals a card Henry has in play or in his hand, Henry fires a BANG! at that player. NOTE: Blasko specifies that this BANG! does interact with abilities, cards in play, etc.
- Lemonade Jim (4 LP): Each time another player plays a Beer, Lemonade Jim may discard a card to regain 1 life point.
- Colorado Bill (4 LP): Anytime a player avoids his BANG!, Colorado may "draw!" On spades, his target immediately loses a life point.
Brown Cards:
- Spray: BANG! both a player of your choice and a player adjacent to him.
- Wild Bunch: All other players must discard a BANG! or lose 2 cards from their hands, their choice.
- Last Beer: Regain 1 life point. NOTE: What makes this card different from a normal Beer is that it can be played when only 2 players remain.
- Tornado: Each player must set aside 2 cards from his hand and pass them to the player to his left. NOTE: The passing is done simultaneously.
- Return Fire: 1st Effect: Missed!. 2nd Effect: Your attacker is the target of a BANG!
- Tomahawk: Bang! a player seen within distance 2.
- Poker: All other players must discard a card if they can. If none of those cards is an Ace, you may draw up to 3 of the discarded cards.
- Escape: When you are the sole target of any card besides BANG!, play Escape to avoid that card's effect. NOTE: It is essentially like Mick Defender's ability above.
- Twin Shot: Play with a BANG!. If your target does not evade that BANG! he loses 2 life points.
- Saved!: Play out of turn to prevent any player from losing a life point. If this saves another player from elimination, draw 2 cards from his hand.
Blue Cards:
- Ghost: Play in front of an eliminated player. That player returns to life without a character ability and no way to gain or lose life points. Besides this he plays as a normal player. NOTE: elimination would occur when the Ghost card is discarded or stolen from him.
- Shotgun (Gun, Distance 1): Whenever you hit a player with a BANG!, that player must discard a card of his choice from his hand, if possible.
- Machete (Weapon, Distance 1): During your turn, you may play any card except Missed! as a BANG!.
- Bounty: Play in front of a player. If he is hit by a BANG!, his attacker draws a card.
- Rattlesnake: Play in front of a player. At the beginning of his turn, that player "draws!" On spades, he loses a life point. Otherwise, he passes the Rattlesnake to his left.
Well, those are the cards included in Valley of Shadows. 3 of the 5 characters are defensive; 2 offensive. They look far less OP than the Wild West Show characters, which is encouraging. The playing cards, on the whole, are quite offensive, and should lead to more devastating attacks that will favor the more offensive characters and roles in my opinion. It will be interesting to see how many of the cards from the base game will be added to balance out these cards. Anyway, I will keep you posted on any new information on this foreign official expansion!

Interagency cooperation is vital to the success of any police agency. No matter how big or small, each department relies on its local, state and federal partners to be effective. Mike Downey, the Sheriff of Humboldt, has been a great partner. Mike is one who is quick to answer his phone and bring resources to the table. Within one hour of finding out I was the newly appointed Chief of Police, Mike Downey called me to welcome me to Humboldt, offering his home as a place to stay…short term. Billy Honsal has proven to be just as collaborative.
EPD arrested an armed robber plaguing the downtown area. The jail was full and I needed space to put this person in jail. I called Mike and Mike made room in the inn. EPD had operations that needed extra personnel. Mike NEVER said, "No." He always stepped up to the plate and helped. It was Mike's strength that instituted and maintained a countywide SWAT team when EPD shuttered its doors to a tactical team. EPD and HCSO currently staff the team that he sustained. His SWAP unit has been immeasurable in cleaning up the ecological disaster left by illegal camping. Mike Downey has lead from the front in the local Chief's group and the Humboldt County Drug Task Force. The list could go on.
What people may not recognize or understand is that while we may be dysfunctional at times, things work based on the strength and personality of executives like Mike Downey, who don't harbor their assets like marbles on the playground, but share their resources for the betterment of its citizens. This sharing includes the DA, Fire Chiefs, Police Chiefs, DHHS, Probation, the Sheriff and Public Defender. Yes, it takes all of us in the system to ensure effective government, even though at times we may be on the opposite side of the table.
Humboldt will take a hit with Mike's retirement, but I am sure Billy Honsal will step in and help immensely. Likewise the newly appointed public defender, David Marcus, will be a good addition to ensuring justice and individual rights are protected.
Enjoy your well-earned retirement Mike. You and Annette have served us well.

Linda England
With two resident golf professionals offering expert group and individual tuition, excellent short and long game practice areas, I cannot understand why I am not a scratch golfer. Perhaps I spend too much time socialising at the 19th hole - after all Pike Fold is such a friendly club!
I joined Pike Fold Golf Club in August 2011 taking advantage of an offer of 17 months membership for the price of 12. I joined with my two-brother in-laws and father in-law. We had all played golf for a number of years using various websites for cheap tee times which was ok, but none of us had official handicaps or the benefit of being able to call at a golf course to hit a few balls on the way home from work. We were also lacking the sense of belonging that comes with being a member of a golf club.
We were welcomed into Pike Fold with open arms where we encountered passionate golfers of all levels who were willing to support and encourage us in obtaining our handicaps and then participating in the variety of competitions that are organised through the club. The winter league was our initiation to competitive golf, and the summer season offers a full calendar of events with weekly competitions and a mid-week roll up. Competitive golf is not the only benefit of being a member, for those who want to just enjoy social golf; there is always a friendly face and welcoming new partner to share a round with. There are also a variety of social events on offer that are family, and more importantly, child friendly.
The golf course offers a fair and robust examination of your golf but is accessible and not overbearing for a new golfer.
I joined Pike fold Golf Club to take advantage of a good value saving in membership fees. I will remain a member because of the richness it offers me. Great people who are passionate about their golf and who provide a solid organisation and infrastructure that supports all aspects of my golfing and social needs without being so serious that the enjoyment of a pastime is compromised.

actually haven't seen any battle of the bulge figures, but found some market garden figures that were packaged similar to the marines of the XD line. Some of the heads looked very promising, but naturally there were a few "surprised" and "sad" looking duds.I thought this was very promising for my photonovel/ clone army though.for $9 i think i'll invest in another one. And probably some of their other vehicles. A lot of them seem to have a lot of potential once you take off all the over kill machine guns and missle launchers
These are a little OT, but They are the Same Scale as 3 3/4 Star Wars Fig. and They look Sweet in Your What if Dioramas. Give the Predator a Few Sta Wars Artifacts, Like a Light Saber or Stromtrooper Helmet on his Trophy wall and Wala! You've got a Great Fan Fic Custom. These are Japanese Vending Machine Prizes, They Come Disasembled but, Once assembled they are Super Articulated and the Detail in the Paint Aps. Is Amazing. These Cost About $20 Bucks from my Local Comic Shop. But. for the Quality I think it's worth It. The Only Draw Back is that they Are Blind Packaged.

Durost, Bullpen Pitch T-Bones Past Railcats 3-2
GARY, Ind. – The Kansas City T-Bones won their third straight with a 3-2 win over the Gary SouthShore RailCats Saturday night at U.S. Steel Yard. The T-Bones jumped out to an early lead and did not look back, scoring in the first with a two-RBI bloop single and adding to their lead again in the fourth with a Nelson Gord solo blast. The pitching ran with the lead, as starter Kenny Durost turned in a strong performance for his third win of the season and reliever Matt Schweitzer followed with one and two-thirds scoreless innings, pitching out of trouble in the seventh.
Kansas City took advantage of RailCats starter Steve Obenchain early control struggles when they loaded the bases on three consecutive walks to Rob Watson, Neb Brown and Mario Delgado in the first inning. Austin Easley then came through in the clutch with a two-out broken bat single to shallow center that scored Watson and Brown, giving Kansas City the early 2-0 edge.
Gord supplemented the lead in the fourth with a solo home run that put the game at 3-0. The home run was the first of the season for the T-Bones utility player, who went two-for-four with the home run and a double.
The RailCats got on the board in the fifth when Brett Wallace hit a solo shot to left. Later in the inning, Gary pulled within one as Dale Mueller walked and came around to score on a two-out bloop single by Jay Pecci.
Schweitzer came in for Durost in the seventh with the tying run at third and one out. He got Eric McNamee to flyout to right and Jay Pecci to ground out to third to end the threat. Schweitzer also pitched a scoreless eighth, securing the lead for closer Dan Jackson. Jackson came in and pitched a 1-2-3 ninth inning for his career-high seventh save of the season.
The series concludes tomorrow afternoon at U.S. Steel Yard when Trevor Caughey takes the mound for the T-Bones against Gary ace Willie Glen. First pitch is scheduled for 2:05.
Game Notes: The win is the T-Bones' third straight on the road and their fifth in a row against Gary SouthShore…The save for Jackson sets a single-season career high…Aharon Eggleston stole his league leading 14th base…Eggleston also extended his on-base streak to 13 games…Neb Brown extended his on-base streak to 12 games.

Evergreen Brick Works: A Social Enterprise
Development and Innovation Many people know of Evergreen Brick Works in Toronto for the weekly Farmers' Market, the various food events, bike programs or simply as a wonderful place to get outside for a walk with friends and family. Not many know that the 42 acre site with 16 buildings is run by a charity as a large scale social enterprise.
Social Enterprise defined
A social enterprise is a business that generates income for a social purpose. For example, a restaurant in a community centre that employs youth and puts its profits into programming, or a single mom who has assembled an army of home chefs to prepare and deliver lunches to the workplace. The social enterprise harnesses the entrepreneurial spirit and re-invests it back into the community. This is not a new idea but the approach has gained significant momentum in recent years thanks to the work of groups like Ashoka, the Schwab Foundation, the Skoll Foundation, and a long list of innovators who are pursuing ideas with a purpose that go beyond making money for self-gain.
Evergreen as a Social Enterprise
Evergreen launched plans for the Brick Works back in 2002 with the intent of creating a large scale social enterprise that would manage a handful of mission-driven enterprises on the campus, the Garden Market being a clear storefront example. Through the income Evergreen generates on site, from the garden market, office space, parking lot and event rentals, Evergreen is able to support the long list of community programs and services we deliver on site, such as school visits, exhibitions, and a range of family activities.
All told, Evergreen has 8 income streams on site at the Brick Works. All of these activities are mission driven enterprises and revolve around themes of local foods (the Farmers' Market), connecting children and nature (camps), nature in cities (garden market) and promoting an active and outdoor lifestyle (skating, hiking and bikes). Event rental space is also mission focused as we influence the sector to be more sustainable by, for example, sourcing locally. As well we are building community on site as we engage with like-minded organizations as tenants and as we participate with events onsite that relate to urban environmental issues (United Nations gatherings, Leadership forums, product launches for water membrane technology, car sharing strategies, sustainable supply chain industry meetings, etc). Even the most transactional initiative, parking, supports the shuttle bus and is priced to mirror the cost of a round trip on public transit.
These business' not only contribute to Evergreen's financial stability ensuring a sound and sustainable organization, but the extra income allows the Evergreen to expand our programing, most notably to underserviced communities.
Evergreen Brick Works — the platform
Evergreen Brick Works is a campus and a venue for exploring innovations and ideas. It provides a platform that celebrates the best ideas and innovations of the community. To this end, community partners are constantly presenting their own socially driven enterprise ideas. For example, the farmers' market each Saturday showcases the products of over 100 artisan farmers and food producers.
Social entrepreneurs are always welcome in the farmers market. Last year, the cumulative sales totaled well over $6m in combined sales at the market. Events such as the up-cycling Junction Flea Market or the innovative Toronto Underground Market, (a specialized social event designed to give budding food entrepreneurs, chefs and home cooks a platform to test new food ideas to an eager market), also make the site a platform for their own ambitions as social entrepreneurs. We also work with the arts for street involved and homeless youth organization Sketch and their work on site managing a clay studio.
An excellent example of a symbiotic relationship between social enterprises is St John's Bakery as a vendor at the Farmers' Market. What started with a small bakery in the basement of a church in Riverside has expanded into a storefront that specializes in fantastic handcrafted, organic breads. Employing people from all walks of life and backgrounds, the results of the bakery go well beyond bread to benefit the workers – through confidence and skills building learning the craft - and the community itself.
What it takes
A social need, a great idea, creativity, vision, a strong business plan and community are key to realizing a successful social enterprise. Evergreen Brick Works is learning as it goes along, focussing on those enterprises close to the organization's mission, and lending Evergreen Brick Works as a platform, or space, to others in those areas Evergreen doesn't operate but wants to help support.
Being a Social Entrepreneur in Canada
Governments at all three levels have woken up to the multiple benefits social enterprises deliver, from skills training to jobs to addressing poverty reduction and delivering societal needs. The Ontario government for example has recently released their social enterprise strategy called: Impact - A Social Enterprise Strategy for Ontario. In the document, they observe that there are over 10,000 social enterprises in Ontario that serve more than 3.4 million unique customers per year in Ontario. These often grassroots initiatives are getting more and more noticed in the international business community as well. Studied at business schools such as Schulich and INSEAD and through organizations like the Schwab Foundation for Social Entrepreneurship, the Skoll Foundation's social entrepreneur challenge with Huffington Post and the Financial Times Ingenuity Awards.
In it together
As articulated in the accompanying video profiling a number of social enterprises in the province - from math programs for students, to IT start ups, to social innovation collectives - the collective energy and opportunities to address the needs of a community and build off each-others' learnings are limitless.
Video Credit: Government of Ontario
When talking about the future of the sector as it gains traction, Bill Young, President of Social Capital Partners says it best when he states: "I would hope that 10 years from now, a young person being a social entrepreneur will replace their parents' dreams of their children becoming doctors and lawyers."

While I was applying my facial cream this morning, my daughter was so keen watching me and that's how she noticed the pimple on my face, just above my lips.
She said "Mama, you have white pantal here!" pointing my pimple.
I laughed and corrected her, it's not a white pantal. You call it a pimple. When you grow up, you'll get those too! And she was like "Ayako!"
I wonder if she'd go for an acne treatment when she does get it. Knowing her, she's so vain already at her age. She would sometimes tell me that my shoes are not "ternos" with my dress. She thinks I need to dress up like her, if it's pink it should be pink from head to toe haha!

Limes and Oranges growing on the same tree, how?
By Douggie
My friend has a tree in his yard in spain that has big juicy oranges, and limes growing all over it. i've heard of branches from one citrus plant being grafted on to another, but this has both fruits growing from the same branchs. At first we thought the small green fruit must just have been unripe oranges but we have eaten both fruits and there is no doubt to what they are. how is this possible?
- 11 Oct, 2009
Featured on:
citrus fruits
dont know but they do produce all different sized fruits at the same time. so a small un ripe lemon may well taste like a lime.
11 Oct, 2009
Here in Australia nurseries sell citrus trees called "Citrus Splitzers" - which are quite literally half-and-half trees! maybe your friend has one of these.

NPR did a piece yesterday....on state-by-state efforts to call for a Constitutional Convention. Basically, they are up to five solid states. It doesn't mean much.....but you can never tell if people would get that crazy. So if I were rewriting the Constitution? My ten changes:
1. Senators are limited to two terms. If you get appointed to fill out some retiring guy, that's term one for that month or year. Representatives would be limited to twelve years of service in the House.
2. A national election is limited to only citizens of the nation, and thus proven by an ID at the polling location. States can determine how they recognize your citizenship, but a formal fee will be built into the system of $25,000 for non-Americans voting and caught later. The $25,000 will be split among the person who identified the non-citizen and the county register's office.
3. Congress will be solely responsible for the budget. The Senate will have no say over the budget. The President may veto the budget, but the House can over-ride his veto with a 51-percent vote.
4. No Senator or House Member must reside for 30 days of the year in their home state. If they miss the requirement, then the House may bar them from participating in matters of state.
5. The House will be given three years to arrive at a method of a balanced budget. Failure to do so? A six-percent budget cut will occur on the 4th year, and continue until they've reached a balanced budget.
6. No tax may be passed onto citizens of the United States by the House, unless twenty-six states meet and agree upon the additional burden.
7. Presidents are forbidden from appearing on comedy shows.
8. Any money paid to House or Senate members for appearances on TV shows.....must be handed over to the Federal government.
9. Half of all national forest property must be handed over to individual states within a ten-year period. States will be required to maintain the forest but at their discretion..
10. The President will be limited to 21 days a year outside of the US border. Failure to do so will result in a twenty-five percent pay-cut for the year.

It was an awards ceremony that will be remembered for the wrong reasons. The climax of the ceremony was chaotic. The presenter mistakenly awarded the honor to La La Land which was later awarded to Moonlight as millions of viewers and Hollywood celebrities who were in that ceremony were stunned with this fiasco. Faye Dunaway who was giving away the award declared La La Land as the best movie at the end of the broadcast only to be corrected minutes later. By then the makers of La La Land were celebrating on stage, but it was short lived for them.
Moonlight, a drama which was a favorite among the critics was declared the actual winner by the producer of La La Land Jordan Horowitz amidst gasps from the audience present at the ceremony. A close up of the envelope showed that Dunaway and Warren Beatty had an old container of the previous award of Emma Stone who featured as the leading lady in La La Land. That prompted Beatty to hesitantly hand over the envelope to Dunaway who declared La La Land as the winner of the best movie.
The PWC that counted the votes for Oscars apologized and also held itself accountable for this mistake. The statement said that they would like to apologize to La La Land, Moonlight, Dunaway, Warren Beatty and the viewers for the goof up.

But at least there` s never anything that renders a vehicle INOP (probably because of our maintenance), just piddly stuff...or at least I catch the biggies before they get terminal.
Eh, with us being retired, it can take a long time to rack up miles these days so the whole "experience for the mileage" thing doesn`t really apply to us...consider that despite my newest vehicle being an `08, half of `em have under ~22K.
You mentioned how well Lexus has been for you- my wife and I both REALLY liked the original LS400 and then the LS30, but driving them was simply shocking...so, uhm....not Sport Sedan enough... that we quickly realized neither of us could drive such stuff. Had they offered a Hi-Po suspension/brake setup we would`ve loved `em.
I knee-jerk all snarky and think [crap] about people being "too dumb to live"...I just can`t imagine somebody relying on, and assuming the responsibility for, something as serious as a motor vehicle while being that ignorant about it. I mean, sheesh...when I met my wife she was far from a Car Person as I can imagine, but she *KNEW* everything she needed to know about her trusty (and RUSTY) ol` Mazda GLC and its maintenance was 100% covered. I mean, sheesh..it`s like appliances and [tools] and everything else, you just gotta know from your kit.Originally Posted by oneheadlite
Maybe that 745 owner is in the same boat we are- likes that particular vehicle/model and they just aren`t making the exact same thing any more so that one has to last forever.
And yeah, over time the maintenance cost can easily exceed the original (new vehicle) price...I`m sure I`ve spent more than $35K on the Jag`s maintenance/etc. But with 6-figure cars getting commonplace that might change. I can`t imagine spending the cost of a new S8 on maintaining *anything*.
Heh heh, at least you don`t have one of their SUVs/CUVs...in my area those are the official vehicles of [jerks].Originally Posted by Swanicyouth

After winning the 3A state championship last year, Mansfield figured to be rebuilding this year. After all, more than half the starting lineup and the starting pitcher graduated. Plus head coach Michael Freeman moved into administration as principal at Hackett High School.
But the Tigers have reloaded for what appears to a run at another 3A-4 championship and in the state tournament.
Mansfield (10-0, 4-0) rallied for a 14-8 win against Paris last Tuesday to get back in action after spring break.
"Our hitting has been consistent up and down the lineup," coach Jason Gill said. "The pitching has been pretty solid, too. Yesterday was the first time they have really been hit."
Returnees Mallory Ward and Alli Cumbie have set the table at the top of the lineup and Erin Reano has provided the power. Reano hit a three-run home run in the first inning against Paris, her third of the year.
"They wouldn't pitch to her after the first inning," Gill said of Reano. "I guess no one is going to pitch to her."
Freshman Kylie Ward and sophomore Sierra Grady have shared the pitching and have been solid, Gill said. Symber Weaver was 3-for-3 against Paris.
Mansfield also won the small schools division of the Clarksville Tournament this year. The Tigers were not in action at the River City Rumble at Van Buren last month because they had planned to go to the Rivercrest Tournament the weekend before spring break, which was snowed out.
"We were hoping to see some of those teams in the east part of the state that are pretty good," Gill said.
Mansfield played Two Rivers last Friday and had a doubleheader at Atkins on Monday.

Level 1 Courses
Level 1 Courses are for the Bachelor's Degree in Divinity.
The Atmavedi Meditation technique is simple, natural, effortless, and easily learned. It is practiced for 20 minutes twice a day while sitting comfortably with the eyes closed. The Atmavedi Meditation technique is taught through a course of instruction that spans four consecutive days with the following topics:
Yoga is more than a physical exercise. Your mental make up while doing asanas also matters. Start yoga with faith and determination, it has the potential to change your life and personality.
Early morning, one to two hours before sunrise is best time for yoga as preferred by yogis. Bowels must be passed before doing yoga. You may take bath before yoga practice. Be patient, it takes time to set to new routine.
To enter the 10,000 year Satyug, the world must pass through a pralaya (period of destruction) that will end Kaliyug. There are a number of agents who are orchestrating this pralaya. In this course you will learn about these agents of destruction, and how to avoid or minimize their handiwork in your life. This is essential if you are to be among the first generation of the new Satyug.
AyurVedic Cooking for Satyug Kaya Kalpa provides the individual with the optimal diet for perfect health and to support the transformation to the 12 strand DNA model of the Satyug physiology. The Satyug Kaya Kalpa program includes alternating well cooked balanced vegetarian meals with pure organic juice meals (see MVU105 "Pure Organic Juice Meals for Satyug Kaya Kalpa"). The basics of ayurvedic food selection and preparation are demonstrated in this 10-lesson course that includes step-by-step video instructions, recipes, and an explanation of the benefits that each meal bestows. Ayurvedic experts and master chefs discuss the best ingredients, cooking techniques, and recipes for a balanced vegetarian diet.
The transformation of the physiology into one that functions from the basis of 12 strands of DNA and has all the features and characterists of a Satyug human physiology, must be consist initially of an alternating diet of pure cooked organic vegetarian meals (see MVU104 "AyurVedic Cooking for Satyug Kaya Kalpa") and pure raw milk and organic juice meals. In time one consumes only pure raw milk and organic juice meals as the digestive system refines. In this course you will learn how to prepare your own balanced raw organic juice meals.
Everyone has a direct connection with the Divine through the instrumentality of the Âtman. This connection is infallible and perfect because it is the source, course and goal of human existence. However, most are unaware of this Divine connection and unable to utilize it for direct guidance from this source of higher intelligence. This is because the connection "hardware" is out of service. As human beings with our marvelous human nervous system, we all have the basic equipment necessary for Divine communication. However, this equipment is in need of repair and adjustment in almost everyone alive today. How to make these repairs and adjustments is the topic of Âtmavedî.
The Âtman is that aspect of the Divine that we all have access to in consciousness. Once communication with the Âtman begins, it soon becomes more and more clear with practice. Eventually, guidance from the Âtman will lead a person to the Path to Brahman Consciousness, and from there the supreme goal of human existence can be achieved.
In Âtmavedî IV, we advance to the awakening of that 1/3 of our lives which has largely been wasted in unconscous sleep and useless dreams. The significance of this course is difficult to grasp at first. An entire world of experience will open up to you that will include wonderful celestial experience, advanced initiations, and preliminary work and training for assuming our role in Brahman Consciousness as an employee of Lord Vishnu, responsible for the maintanence of this Universe.
Consultations with your Celestial Family during lucid dreams is an important part of Âtmavedî IV that we should learn now because it will be an invaluable experience and can be mastered without very much preparation. All we really need is to know is how to meditate - that is the only prerequisite. So we are presenting the Lucid Dreaming module now, in advance of the full Âtmavedî IV course.
Âtmavedi Crystals™ are designed to promote Brahman Consciousness.
Brahman Consciousness represents the highest ideal for a human life achievement. Brahman Consciousness is that state of consciousness which resonates in complete harmony with the vast consciousness of the Creator. One who lives in Brahman Consciousness is literally the Divine incarnate, always acting in perfect accord with all the Laws of Nature and radiating a life supporting and uplifting influence to everyone he or she contacts.
Brahman Consciousness is experienced and lived when the connection between the human mind and the Mind of God has been established on a conscious level. This connection is established through the pineal gland. The pineal gland, located in the center of the brain, is dormant in most individuals. Âtmavedi Crystals are designed to activate the pineal gland, safely and over time, by simply drinking water with the dissolved crystals.
The Âtmavedî II Course provides everything you need to initiate the life-transforming process that will ultimately result in Brahman Consciousness for you.
The course includes a complete set of s'akti activated Maha-Samjîvini Yantras, drawings and prescribed darshan meditations and S'rî Chakra activations.
The titles of the 5 course topics are:
To rise to Braham Consciousness we need to fully activate the S'rî Chakra of the pineal gland or "third eye" in the brain. The S'rî Chakra that creates the pineal gland is most significant because this physical structure forms the link between the physical and the subtle planes. The pineal gland in its atrophied state could be as small as a grain of rice, but may be as large as a raisin. However, when fully activated it will be about the same size as the individual's physical eyeball. It has the same construction as an eyeball, with a lens that looks straight up, plus rods and cones. It is located in the center of the brain in a small cave behind and above the pituitary gland which lies a little behind the root of the nose. It is located directly behind the eyes, attached to the third ventricle.
Remote Viewing enables the mind's inherent ability to obtain knowledge about any person, place, thing in the past, present or future. As human beings, we have 5 bodies or Koshas. Each Kosha has it's own mind. The physical mind is the one we are all most familiar with. The physical mind is limited to the physical world, but knowledge of the physical world is best discovered by the subtle body that is closest to the physical, which is the prana mind. What ever happens or exists on the physical has its source in the realm of the pranamaya kosha. In the realm of the prana mind we find what is commonly known as the Astral plane. In the Astral we find the precursors to whatever is coming on the physical and we find the records of whatever has happened on the physical. Remote Viewing is the process of directly accessing the prana mind while avoiding the physical mind's interpretation, creativeness or analysis. If we can do this, we will be able to know the precursors to physical events or read the akashic records of what has already occurred on the physical, thereby transcending time to know anything in the physical past and future. This Remote Viewing course will train you to do this.
The Âtmavedî III Course provides everything you need to make significant progress in the life-transforming process that will ultimately result in Brahman Consciousness for you.
Jyotish - Jyotish means light on the path - an invaluable gift from the Creator, Lord Brahma, that not only reveals to us the karma we carry, but also provides a means to rise above this web of karma to the realms of blissful life in Brahman Consciousness. Those who are seeking to improve their happiness and fulfillment in life are invited to enjoy the self-knowledge of S'rî Vyuha Jyotish.
The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali is the training manual for becoming the Lord Brahma of your own universe as a God Realized being. There are four stages of God Realization built on the foundation of Cosmic Consciousness, or Moksha Level 1.

The previous series of posts on the topic of Event Reflexivity each posed a question about what the general shape of the design pattern actually is. Over the following months after the posts I thought about the pattern a lot more and eventually came to the conclusion that a lot of the questions aren't a simple matter of choosing what's correct - the reason these questions are hard to answer is that both options could be correct. What I have here is in fact not a single unclear design pattern, but instead a whole family of possible choices on a design pattern, with different specifics being more useful to specific cases.
The specific design choices that a particular implementation takes should answer such questions as:
- Ordering control: Are subscribers of some named action invoked in a controllable fashion?
- Invocation functions: What kinds of actions or ways of invoking them are actually provided?
- Heirarchial actions: Do the types of actions occupy a simple flat namespace, or is there some heirarchial structure to them? Can a subscriber catch an entire subspace of actions at once?
- Explicit or implicit subscription: Do subscribers have to explicitly list every action (or action subspace) they wish to receive?
- Filterable arguments: Does the implementation offer a built-in way to filter specific values of arguments by some pre-declared pattern?
Perhaps the only real design question for the Event-Reflexive Design Pattern Pattern is to decide on some neat concise language that implementations can use to explain their specific choices on these issues.

For years, my mantra has been "Calm. Wise. Kind." Not that I always achieve that! But at least I try. Lately, my biggest challenge has been "calm."
You see, we've moved. After nine years of living in one house, my husband and I moved to a condo in a nearby town. The move itself went remarkably smoothly. Only one small jade bowl was broken; we eventually found the lid to the wok (in a box with the porcelain Tang horses – why didn't we look there first?); and after two weeks, we've unpacked all 50 boxes of books. We're basically settled in.
But after the move, I fell apart. Why? Comcast.
First, they canceled our longtime phone number, with no forwarding message. Then, two days ago, with no notice, they abruptly canceled our e-mail account. Basically, no one can reach us at all, by phone or by e-mail. I've spent countless hours on the phone with Comcast, with no results so far. When they told me "maybe" they could fix it – but not for three days – I literally felt like vomiting. I reached for the TUMS.
That dwarfs my previous problem: Our Comcast internet modem signal isn't strong enough to reach my husband's office within our condo. In the last few days, I've wrestled with more wireless routers and co-axial cables and range extenders than I care to count. Do you know how hard it is to screw a co-axial cable in to the back of a modem that sits high on a shelf in a closet? Now our TV – which wasn't working at all for the first 12 days – bounces back "on" every time we turn it "off." At least the "mute" button works.
"Calm – Wise – Kind" has evaporated. Now it's "Yikes! Freak! Shriek!"
"B R E A T H E" – a wise person tells me. Yesterday, after a long, frustrating phone call with Comcast, I was gripping the steering wheel of my car with fists like iron. I willed my muscles to relax. "C A L M," I told myself. "Think of something else." I distracted myself by making plans for my next blog post – on a topic I'll probably never write. Then I got to my appointment, and my friend told me Comcast did the same thing to her, and she lost 800 business contacts. I had to take another TUMS.
My daughter tells me I should always provide a "takeaway" for readers – some solution to a problem. But today, I just can't.
How do you deal with stress?

if auto-mount picks up opt or swap on the usb partition it would be nice to automatically use swap on and mount /dev/opt to /opt
This now needs to be done as a script, but if this it included that would be awesome.
Except that I have a swap partition that I created for future use - I wanted to reserve the space - but I don't need or want swap on right now. So I don't want swap auto-started. I suppose there could be a gui checkbox for this.
if auto-mount picks up opt or swap on the usb partition it would be nice to automatically use swap on and mount /dev/opt to /opt
Nope. That would be classified as a computer that thinks it is smarter than its user.
I prefer to tell my computer what to do, rather than vice-versa, thankyouverymuch.
Anyway, this is trivial to set up yourself. Look for my post on *.autorun scripts.
fstab and labels is all you need.
something like that:
LABEL=opt /opt auto defaults 0 2
LABEL=swap none swap
you can save your fstab file to nvram using `nvram setfile2nvram` command
I know how to do it, however would be cool if it could be automated thats all. All it is, is a enhancement….
It could be automated. Thing is, it shouldn't be automated.
Then it would just be one more piece of software that thinks it knows better than you, the user, what you want to do—forcing you to figure out how to un-do whatever it did to you.
Q: What would the casual user want & expect to have happen when he plugs in a USB stick/drive? A: He'd expect it to be mounted so he could access files on it.
Q: If the USB stick or drive has mulitple partitions of various types, is the user probably a "casual user"?
A: No, probably not.
Q: What then should happen?
A: Mount the normal (data) partitions just like the above simple case and leave the others alone.
Q: Yeah, but what if this presumably advanced user wants to have these other partitions easily and somewhat automatically handled somehow?
A: Provide a simple way for the user to specify this.
There is an easy way for the non-casual user to have non-trivial things to be done on/to a USB drive when it is plugged in. Moreover, this method allows him to have each different USB drive to be handled in its own way.
This method is implemented by having Tomato execute the *.autorun script(s) that are in the root directory of a USB drive partition, after the partition is mounted.
You can do things like:
Final Q: What if Tomato cleverly activated swapping on any partition that it thought was a swap partition, but the user had no idea that this was happening, and then unplugged the USB stick (like you can do with Windows & desktop Linux) by yanking it out?
A: He must look for the (nonexistant) Big Red Switch on the router to cycle power.

Whether you love cars as a driver or just a spectator, there are certain "bucket list" items that are more than just a to-do – they're a rite of passage. You can tour the roads of northern Italy or take a lap on the Nürburgring in Germany, but these are the five experiences you simply have to see and do first.
The Autobahn
If you have the need for speed, you need Germany's Autobahn. Imagine driving down a perfectly maintained freeway – and there is no speed limit. It's no surprise this network of German roads is consistently occupied by the world's most powerful supercars. There's almost no other public road in the world where you can (legally) push a car, and your courage, to its limits.
Indy 500
The Indy 500 is pure, unbridled Americana. It's the American Pie of races in the United States, and it takes place at the historic Indianapolis Motor Speedway every year. While most Americans have eyes on NASCAR, the Indy 500 is one of the few races where non-stock cars get the spotlight. If you have the chance to see it live, do it – everything from the sounds of the engines to the pit stops is truly unique.
Daytona 500
If you fancy yourself more of a NASCAR fan, the Daytona 500 is the race you need to see. But in the 35-race series for the NASCAR Sprint Cup, what makes this one so special? The Daytona 500 is held at the end of a two-week, action-packed group of races called Speedweeks, and it's like March Madness to a NASCAR fan. But while the race on the track has raised stakes, it's the crowd and atmosphere that make the Daytona 500 America's favorite race to see in person.
Bonneville Salt Flats
Have you ever seen a video where any vehicle breaks the land speed record? Often, the background is a solid, flat white desert with mountains over the horizon. It's the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, and it's one of the largest, flattest pieces of land in the world. Even if you don't get to actually drive a vehicle on the flats, which feel like they go on forever, you may have the chance to see a record attempt in action.
Rally School
There's racing school, and then there's rally school. And if the only roads you've ever driven are made of asphalt, this is a one-in-a-lifetime experience you can't miss. Rally schools like DirtFish in Washington State will have you behind the wheel and driving a beast on some of the most intense dirt roads in the country. It's a driving experience like no other.

Washington lawmakers target housing access for Section 8 participants
Sat., Feb. 20, 2016
TACOMA – Tenants who scan Craigslist for rental homes find sharp disagreement among landlords – and not just about whether pets are great or gross.
Some advise: "Section 8 welcome." Others warn: "No Section 8."
Those are references to federal rent vouchers for poor, elderly and disabled tenants. "We do not accept felonies, misdemeanors of a violent nature, or evictions and we do not participate in the Section 8 program," one Tacoma apartment complex says, while the ad for a Lakewood apartment cautions: "Sorry, we are not able to accept Section 8 or dogs."
An initial welcome might not last, either. In August, the new owners of John Hannaman's Kent apartment complex sent him a notice to move out on the last day of his lease. "We are no longer participating in the Section 8 Housing Program," the letter says.
Seattle, unincorporated King County, Tumwater and other communities treat users of federal housing aid as a protected class similar to people who face discrimination because of race, religion, disability, sexual orientation and other characteristics. Olympia is drafting a proposal that could come before the City Council within weeks.
Some states have similar protections, but not Washington.
Statewide regulation has been proposed off and on for at least a decade in the Legislature but has run into opposition from landlords. Now a bipartisan proposal to forbid landlords from rejecting tenants who have Section 8 vouchers or other forms of government aid is drawing attention in lawmakers' ongoing 60-day session, but has an uphill climb.
In theory, rejecting Section 8 could already open a landlord to liability if racial minorities or other protected groups are disproportionately represented among voucher holders. But federal courts have split over whether that kind of indirect liability, known as "disparate impact," should be a consideration for rejection of housing aid.
Landlords decide
The lack of a state mandate leaves the decisions in the hands of thousands of landlords, often based on their own or others' personal experiences.
Section 8 recipients are some of Jim Adrian's best-behaved tenants, the Bremerton landlord said, in part because if they break the program's rules they can lose their vouchers.
"They've actually got more at stake," Adrian said.
A worse track record by tenants of Todd Monohon drove the Olympia landlord – "unfortunately" – to stop taking new Section 8 tenants.
Monohon said a common fear among landlords is that since tenants with vouchers have often fallen on hard times, they will be less ready to take care of homes and will cause more wear and tear on the properties.
"If their financial household's in order, that's the best predictor of how they'll be able to manage their physical household," Monohon said.
The federal program is voluntary. Landlords say proposed protections would effectively remove that choice.
A landlord group told a House committee recently that some ads disqualify Section 8 tenants because the rent is simply too high.
But an advocate for tenants told lawmakers the proposal wouldn't require any landlords to lower rent and that it could be revised to clarify that fact. Advocates say landlords wouldn't have to accept tenants who don't meet their other qualifications.
Monohon said more regulation forces more spending on paperwork and staff and drives some landlords out of the rental market, and all of those things raise rent prices.
"The less freedom of choice that people have in the marketplace, the harder it is to offer housing that's affordable," he said.
Tenants struggle
Hannaman said he shouldn't be judged by the benefits he receives.
He said he's eligible for housing aid because of decades-old back and brain injuries from a vehicle crash while on patrol as a wildland firefighter.
Now 64, Hannaman said he has used Section 8 vouchers since 1990 and moved to Kent from Bellevue to find more affordable rent. The Lighthouse Apartments, a gated community, attracted him because it felt safe, he said.
When his landlord ordered him out last fall, Hannaman said the company offered him an apartment at a different complex – one he sees as plagued by crime. He requested reconsideration through an attorney, and the protest bought him a six-month lease, Hannaman said.
But he's not sure what happens when that lease runs out in March.
A reporter's call to the apartment complex wasn't returned.
Hannaman said voucher holders shouldn't be stigmatized as problem tenants. Low vacancy rates in many parts of the state have made it harder to find apartments.
"There are a lot of people who are homeless who have jobs and just can't afford an apartment. It doesn't mean they're bad," he said.
The difficulties are shared by recipients of other kinds of government assistance.
Thomas Green said he struggled to find housing years ago in Tacoma after a divorce, even though he had a disability check from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
One landlord wouldn't count his disability payments as income, he said, while another pointed to the fact that he was unemployed despite government benefits that met income requirements.
"I couldn't afford any more of the application fees so I just stayed in the homeless shelter, and finally around December somebody rented me out half of a garage," recalled Green, whose left leg was partially paralyzed by a helicopter accident. He now works as a social worker and lives in Seattle.
The proposal in the Legislature would bar rejection of tenants solely because of government-provided income, regardless of the type of benefits. Housing advocates say state housing assistance, disability payments and welfare should be treated the same as any other income.
Lawmakers consider
Advocates for the measure have a powerful ally in House Speaker Frank Chopp, D-Seattle, who is a champion of anti-homelessness programs.
"People need to find housing, and just because they happen to get a, say, disability check or something else like that, that should not bar them from getting a decent house," Chopp said recently.
They also have a Republican backing the measure in the GOP-controlled Senate. Federal Way Sen. Mark Miloscia, who first backed the bill when he was a Democrat in the House, said he's trying to bring all sides to a compromise and would likely wait for the House to act first.
Senators in a recent hearing discussed exempting the smallest landlords or scaling the proposal back to cover only Section 8 tenants.
Sen. Steve O'Ban, R-Tacoma, chairs the committee that oversees housing. At the hearing, he questioned whether a government "hammer" is needed or if landlords merely need to be educated about their options.
House Bill 1565 cleared the House committee Feb. 4 with all Democrats in support and all Republicans opposed. Rep. Jay Rodne, R-Snoqualmie, argued many government aid programs are voluntary and there's no reason housing vouchers should be different.
The measure is sponsored by Rep. Timm Ormsby, a Spokane Democrat who's also a landlord with four rentals. He linked the proposed requirement to a 2014 move by the Legislature that could benefit landlords. Lawmakers set aside 45 percent of a major source of anti-homelessness funding – fees charged for recording real-estate documents – to go to private, for-profit landlords.
"We have given them an opportunity to access state dollars, consistent state dollars," Ormsby told fellow lawmakers at the House hearing, "and we're asking landlords now to be willing participants and good-faith participants."

Are you responsible for ruining your relationship?
A good friend of mine says that love is blind, but marriage restores your 20/20 vision. Regardless of romance, all marriages, at some point or another, will go through at least one major crisis.
If the relationship survives past the first couple years, after the endorphins have subsided, they will have to deal with the 12-to-20 season: the time between years 12 and 20 when couples typically work out the last major kinks and differences. If they are unable to reach this point, years 12-20 will typically result in divorce.
Here are five signs you might be the reason why your marriage has not worked out its kinks:
1. You can't handle the in-laws. Research shows that how spouses relate to the inlaws is a strong predictor of marriage longevity. A man who gets along with his wife's parents is wise — his chances of a strong marriage increase by about 20 percent. Women who get along with their in-laws actually have an increased probability of divorce, by about 20 percent.
If you are the husband who does not invest in knowing or liking the in-laws, or if you are a wife who can't say no to the mom-in-law's constant, last-minute demands, you are probably driving your spouse to divorce.
2. You are always the victim. You never do anything wrong, and your spouse is always doing things on purpose, obviously. He/she is completely insensitive, never takes you into consideration and probably even forgets you exist. In return, you never ask for anything, you allow your spouse to over-indulge and underestimate.
Perhaps your spouse has even been unfaithful but you will forgive every single time. If you truly cannot see any of your own faults or imperfections and blame the other person for all that goes wrong, you are probably driving your spouse to divorce. Continue reading ...

"The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands."
Psalm 19:1
Wow Factor – Awe and Wonder Helps You Connect With Your Spirit
What's around us can inspire us, enlighten us and empower us. Yet thanks to technology, the media and a greater awareness of the world, we find our first-time, overwhelming experiences of the world to be fewer and fewer.
In the Old Testament, we read of a king called King David. King David started his life as a shepherd boy and a musician and we mainly know him as the young boy who killed Goliath long before becoming king. Over the course of his years, David wrote much of the book in the bible called the Psalms. Each Psalm illustrates a different point in David's life where he connects with God through his spirit. This verse stands out at the beginning of chapter 19: The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. (Psalm 19 v 1)
Can you imagine what it is David is thinking about as he proclaims this bold statement? Most theologians believe this chapter was inserted towards the end of David's life where he reflected on the events over his time on earth.
David knew of God's awe and wonder and what a magnificent position he must have been in to see each moment throughout his life. When we look outwards and look upwards, we can do the same and connect with our spirit.
This week, consider; why do we sometimes miss moments of awe and wonder? What can we do to realign ourselves so we can see the awe and wonder God has placed in the world?

The two biggest issues are the splitting of infinitives and whether it's okay to end a sentence with a preposition.
Language purists have long taken umbrage with the Star Trek opening lines: "To boldly go where no man has gone before." They choke, harrumph, and whine over the daringness of breaking the cool lines of the infinitive "To go" by placing 'boldly' between those two words. Hey, you all: it's okay. Split all those infinitives you wish. As a bonus, feel gleefully sinful when you do it.
One day it was on.
The next day it was off.
What happened to happily ever after?
To have her near.
To have her around.
Feelings of remorse and regret came up.
Maybe one day, one day this would all pass by.
Actually, this "rule" came from the notion that English should use similar grammatical rules as Latin. That's a language that is as dead as a doornail. And attempting to follow this rule can lead to awkward sentences.
"Shall I take my clothes off?" sounds better than "Shall off I take my clothes?"

Contains mild spoilers.
The fact that thirty minutes into Rise of the Zombies I found myself in the kitchen kneading dough says a lot. It wasn't that I wasn't enjoying the high octane zombie action it was just that I was finding the whole thing a tad derivative and stale and the thought of freshly baked bread was more than enough to distract me.
I'd happily call myself a bit of a zombie geek; a zombie aficionado if you like, and I'll pretty much watch anything if it's got an undead shambler or two in. The problem with Rise of the Zombies is I've just seen it all before. It doesn't really do anything wrong; each stylish well constructed set piece is pulled off with aplomb and vigour, the story makes reasonable sense and the characters are well presented by a surprisingly strong cast. It just lacks any ambition or any desire to be original and it's problem I've seen all too often before with films that go direct to TV and to audiences that probably don't watch that many zombie films. It's like director Nick Lyon is working from a crib of popular zombie tropes and clichés ticking them off one by one as they're added to narrative that ends up feeling tepid and as unoriginal as you can get.
One thing I will say though is Nick Lyon has obviously gone back and watched a few old Romero zombie films since his last The Asylum zombie feature, Zombie Apocalypse, in 2011. It's still another action zombie film first and foremost but from the explosive opening fight as zombies washed on the Alcatraz shore siege and overflow the prison survivors, we can tell it's all a definite a step up. The zombies are visceral, skilfully presented, varied and most importantly now, pretty uniform in their movement and behaviour (halle-fucking-luiah). Zombie Apocalypse was actually quite tame but Rise of the Zombies from the get-go is chock full of far darker, more gruesome macabre deaths and even has a touch of the Romero humour. Apocalypse was a (15) certificate here in the UK, this was awarded an (18) and it shows. Zombies are sliced and diced, victims are torn into and ripped apart, and it's a bloodier, gorier experience. Lyon even includes a couple of rather gratuitous exploitation scenes that even made yours truly wince a little, and it did make me wonder, if I wasn't the target audience and the SyFy saturday night crowd were, what they would make of it all. I'm probably being a bit of an old nurse-maid and they didn't mind, but it's almost like Lyon made a film with a narrative aimed at one set of people but presented it all in such a way to please another.
I'll be honest. The quality of actors put together, for an Asylum production took me by surprise. Ethan Suplee plays Marshall, an ex-Air force soldier who believes it's all god's plan, Mariel Hemingway plays Dr. Lynn Snyder, a cool headed scientist looking for a cure and Danny Trejo plays himself. The undoubted star of the show in my mind though is LeVar Burton as Dr. Dan Halpern, best friend of Lynn, who despite being the closest thing the survivors actually have of finding the cure quite makes quite convincing work portraying a guy going quite off the rails after trying to cure his daughter. They all do a reasonable job portraying the disparate mixed survival group but ultimately can't hide from the one dimensional character design and hokey dialogue. They've all got motivations and clash and argue, but much like the attempt at story telling it's all rather tame and lacklustre, merely acting as filler to move the film from one big zombie pagga to the next.
There was also an attempt, I think, to add a little depth to the narrative here and there, and though the whole science vs religion stuff all fell flat, I did quite like all the scientific mumbo-jumbo from Dr. Dan Halpern as he explored the virus, its pseudo parasitic makeup and aversion to electricity, even though they never really go anywhere with it all.
Rise of the Zombies is a competent zombie survival story, well presented with a reasonably coherent story. The action is nicely paced if you don't question things like the complete absence of zombies over large swathes of the city only for them to turn up in droves the moment they stop somewhere. The near constant fighting is well executed, dramatic and reasonably entertaining, with a good amount of blood and splatter. It still has the dodgy direct to TV FX The Asylum is renowned for, but it's not quite as bad, and overall there's far more cinematic confidence and competence on display. Special mention must lastly go to some truly brilliant zombies that look like they've finally taken inspiration from The Walking Dead. It's just a shame it's all so darn derivative and the story so flat and stale. Still Lyon is moving in the right direction so things are looking up if he decides to do another, 5/10.

"Sex education? But she is so young. She shouldn't be exposed to 'adult stuff' so early!"
You wish to keep your children away from sex education for fear of their minds getting polluted. You might feel that talking or reading about sex is outrageously vulgar. You learnt everything about it when it was the right time and the right age for it, and that too without any formal education… then why should your child's textbook look like an adult magazine?
True, if sex education is introduced at the sub-junior level in school, your child might get exposed to "adult stuff" quite early. But think about it this way. With the media and communication revolution, children are already getting exposed to explicit content through films, television, Internet and a hundred other channels.
You must have heard this famous saying a hundred times before, "prevention is better than cure"!
Formal sex education is not adding to these sources of exposure, instead preventing your child to be misguided or carried away from this explicit exposure!
We are well aware of the vulnerability of adolescents. Formal sex education will only help them understand the phenomenon in a matured manner. All other sources give them information in bits and pieces, and leave it to them to interpret it in their own way, with their own immature mind.
Counselors across the country strongly believe that formal sex education is imperative for the overall development of the children of today and to prepare them for a safe tomorrow. "Safe sex is a very important part of our lives and it is imperative for students to understand this fact." Says Priyamvada, a Students' Counselor at a private school.
You too can take a step in this direction, by talking to your child about sex, STDs and related issues. This way, your child will also feel free to discuss his/her doubts or if in case there is some other problem. If your child is not free at home, he/she will seek solutions from friends and other companions who are equally unaware of the complete phenomenon.
In today's times, formal sex education is an imperative part of a child's overall education. And till that happens, you need to take up the responsibility yourself… because it is so rightly said, "partial information is more dangerous".

It's a good day to get stuff done…rainy and dreary.

Copyright FAQ
- What is a copyright?
The copyright gives the owner of creative work (music) specific rights according to the law.
- The right to print, reprint and copy their work
- The right to sell and distribute copies of their work
- The right to transform, arrange or revise their work
- The right to record their work
- The right to perform their work publicly
The law prohibits anyone from infringing on these exclusive rights without first receiving permission from the owner.
- How does it apply to our CBS classes?
Christians often face copyright infringement issues in two vital areas:
- Copying music, or words to music without permission
- Showing videos without authorization
- How can we be sure that our use of music remains within legal guidelines?
- We can sing with hymn books.
- We can also print words from songs that are in the public domain and are not copyrighted.
Public Domain is:
- All works published in the United States before 1923 are in the public domain.
- Works published after 1922 but before 1978 are protected for 95 years from the date of publication.
- For works published after 1977 the copyright lasts for the life of the author plus 70 years.
- If the work was published between 1923 and 1963 you must check with the US copyright office to see whether the copyright was properly renewed. If it was not, the work is public domain.
- We can sing with worship DVD's that already have the words on the video.These DVD's are made specifically for corporate worship. To purchase DVD's, shop www.Integritydirect.com.
- CBS classes can also apply for a license that will give them permission to print songs, hymns, and words for Power Point for congregational singing. It is an easy way to help honor the legal rights of Christian song owners. This is called a CCLI License.
The Church Copyright License (CCLI) is a contractual agreement with songwriters and and publishers. CCLI uses the annual fees it charges from its customers and pays the artists so that we can receive legal authorization to use over 200,000 songs for congregational singing. This is a fee paid annually and this authorization is non-transferable so our CBS classes CANNOT use the CCLI number of their local church. Each class must have its own CCLI number.To contact CCLI, access the website www.ccli.com or call 1.800.234.2446.
