Extremely Large Telescope (ELT)
The Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) will be the world's largest telescope seeing visible and infra-red wavelengths. It is currently under construction, and is due to be completed in 2024. The primary mirror is 40 metres in diameter, and will collect 100 million times more light than the human eye.

Where was the Big Bang?
The Fate of the Universe
History of the Big Bang
The Universe started with the Big Bang about 14,000 million years ago (14,000,000,000 years). It started out very, very hot and has been expanding and cooling since then.
For the first tiny fraction of a second, everything was so hot, that we cannot describe what it was like, but we can use our knowledge of physics to give us a good idea of what was happening from as little as 10-43 seconds (that is 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000001 seconds!) after the beginning.
Evidence for the Big Bang
Big Bang
The Expansion of the Universe
When we look at distance galaxies, we find that they all seem to be moving away from us. The further away they are the faster they seem to be moving.
Most galaxies appear to be moving away from us. This means that the light from them is "stretched" slightly and appears a bit redder that it would otherwise do.
This is similar to what happens to sound. Imagine that a fire engine is driving past you with its siren on. When it is moving towards you, the siren it quite high pitched. When it is moving away from you, the pitch drops and it sounds lower. With light, "lower" means more red and "higher" means more blue.

Freedom's tasty, ain't it? Let's hear it for the First Amendment. That beautiful guarantee of the ability to think muse, opine, ideate, fantasize, imagine, guess, wonder, dream. To wax perhaps obscene or sexually demented in sick reverie. Fine. Think away. Just don't act. Don't carry through. Just think. Well, the thought police and the mindless bands of feckless, impuissant, atesticular, spineless Ted Baxter sockpuppet, echo chamber, cookie cutter, bumper sticker, presstitue pantywaist media types don't care much for that freedom biz.
What took this Judge so long? I'd have granted the JOA motion instanter. But justice delayed is not necessarily justice denied. The Court was spot on in seeing through the danger of this verdict.
"The evidentiary record is such that it is more likely than not the case that all of Valle's Internet communications about the kidnapping are fantasy role-play," Manhattan Federal District Court Judge Judge Paul Gardephe said in a 118-page written opinion. "No real-world, non-Internet based steps were ever taken to kidnap anyone." Well played, sir.
"No one was ever kidnapped, no attempted kidnapping ever took place, and no real-world, non-Internet -based steps were ever taken to kidnap anyone," he further brilliant noted and wrote. "Dates for 'planned' kidnappings pass without comment, without discussion, without explanation, and with no follow-up. The only plausible explanation for the lack of comment on inquiry about allegedly agreed-upon and scheduled kidnappings is that Valle and the others engaged in these chats understood that no kidnapping would actually take place."
What does this do to "To Catch a Predator" crimes? Alone have I been in calling attention to my Constitutional incredulity over the idea of busting people for thinking they've arranged for an illicit rendezvous with the imaginary virtual minor. The idea that you think you're contracting illegally. You think. Imagine a blind feller thinks someone's in front of him and he pulls out a revolver and demands "Stick 'em up!" Can he be rightfully charged with armed robbery? No, of course not. But he thought there was someone there. If we were to extrapolate the notion of thinking crimes, he should certainly suffer criminal exposure.
By analogy, In 2002 Ashcroft v. Free Speech Coalition, addressed the issues of virtual crime and the language is most pertinent here. The issue addresses child pornography and like cannibalism, the horror of the crime tends to short circuit rational thinking.
The CPPA [Child Pornography Prevention Act of 1996 (CPPA), 18 U. S. C. §2251 et seq.] prohibits speech despite its serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value. The statute proscribes the visual depiction of an idea.
The mere tendency of speech to encourage unlawful acts is not a sufficient reason for banning it. The government "cannot constitutionally premise legislation on the desirability of controlling a person's private thoughts." Stanley v. Georgia, 394 U. S. 557, 566 (1969). First Amendment freedoms are most in danger when the government seeks to control thought or to justify its laws for that impermissible end. The right to think is the beginning of freedom, and speech must be protected from the government because speech is the beginning of thought.
To preserve these freedoms, and to protect speech for its own sake, the Court's First Amendment cases draw vital distinctions between words and deeds, between ideas and conduct. See Kingsley Int'l Pictures Corp., 360 U. S., at 689; see also Bartnicki v. Vopper, 532 U. S. 514, 529 (2001) ("The normal method of deterring unlawful conduct is to impose an appropriate punishment on the person who engages in it"). The government may not prohibit speech because it increases the chance an unlawful act will be committed "at some indefinite future time." Hess v. Indiana, 414 U. S. 105, 108 (1973) (per curiam). The government may suppress speech for advocating the use of force or a violation of law only if "such advocacy is directed to inciting or producing imminent lawless action and is likely to incite or produce such action." Brandenburg v. Ohio, 395 U. S. 444, 447 (1969) (per curiam). There is here no attempt, incitement, solicitation, or conspiracy. The Government has shown no more than a remote connection between speech that might encourage thoughts or impulses and any resulting child abuse. Without a significantly stronger, more direct connection, the Government may not prohibit speech on the ground that it may encourage pedophiles to engage in illegal conduct.
It is beyond axiomatic. Thoughts are protected speech. Period. It's a part of our freedom the terrorists hate, remember? If we ever lose those rights, it won't be from those desert-dwelling terrorist types who are always prone to monkey bars. No, we will give them up and hand them off. I fear us.
My prediction proves true. Again. This was my commentary from March 5 of last year detailing precisely why the cannibal cop wasn't guilty of anything. It denotes the differences between cognizable albeit inchoate crimes versus what this schlub was convicted of.

With cybercrime such a big concern these days, cooperation and information sharing between public and private organizations has never been more important. We recently talked with Derek Manky, Global Security Strategist at Fortinet, to get his thoughts on the difficulty, and importance, of trusted networks for sharing information in the world of cybersecurity.
NOTE: This week NIAS'16 will bring together over 1,000 cyber security professionals and decision-makers (including Fortinet) to discuss NATO's future requirements for cyber defense and industry trends. Also read more about the ongoing cooperation between Agency and Industry representatives. You can also learn more about the recent NATO Cyber Threat Vector Analysis workshop hosted by Fortinet in Valbonne, France on August 23, 2016.
A Q&A with Derek Manky
Sharing threat intelligence is the basis for a lot of public and private cyber relationships, but trust and protocols quickly get complicated in scenarios that cross borders. Can you elaborate on how working together across public and private sectors is helping fight cybercrime?
Whether you're talking about sharing information between countries, between the government and the private sector, or within the private sector, you have to have two things: detailed protocols in place around what information can be shared and how, and trust. This is not easy, and gets quite complicated when you consider national borders and multiple law enforcement organizations, contrasted with a borderless cybercrime world. In addition, it is important and necessary to always maintain data privacy and protect personally identifiable information (PII) when sharing threat intelligence between organizations. This is yet another important reason to rely on trusted partner networks that adhere to agreed-upon protocols, only sharing information related to the adversary, and doing everything we can do to anonymize information sharing.
Are we making any progress on bilateral information sharing?
NATO has been taking steps forward with this and we are pleased to be a part of this effort. Traditionally, NATO has used a platform called MISP, which was only for internal information sharing. Now the NATO Communications & Information Agency (NCI) – the cybersecurity arm of NATO – has created the NATO Industry Cyber Partnership (NICP) to collaborate with the private sector in addressing cyber threats and risks. Only trusted industry partners like Fortinet, for example, can plug into the NICP platform. And trust is a crucial piece to this. Everyone I've talked to on this agrees that the only way we can have useful information sharing is if it is based on trust. And trust is about face to face meetings and knowing the people behind the scenes.
Can you talk a bit about the various cybersecurity needs for public organizations vs. private industry? Is there a difference? Does it matter from an information sharing standpoint?
Threat information, at the end of the day, is still threat information. But the context may change and the impact of threshold for harm that can be done with that information is subjective, sometimes depending on the situation. Regardless, however, sharing information proactively across all verticals and public or private organizations is essential and moving forward. Security controls need to be able to digest automated threat intelligence and take action. The vast amount of threat intelligence that exists today – and more coming tomorrow – cannot be managed otherwise. Organizations of all types continue to struggle as they face ever-evolving threats, an expanding attack surface, and a growing security skills shortage. The challenge, of course, is that traditional information sharing does not contain context. It includes the 'what' but not the 'what does it mean'.
How complex is the information sharing challenge for individuals managing actual security technology?
Today's security teams monitor an average of 14 separate security consoles to try and manage, assess, and secure the expanding array of devices and technologies on their hybrid networks. Many times they have to compare log files, hand correlate data, and manually change policies between devices in order to address threats, which means that many threats go undetected, and response times are too slow for attacks that operate at machine speeds. This is essentially a growing Big Data problem for cybersecurity today. Yet this sort of actionable information is the best way to move from being reactive to proactive in cybersecurity today and to make examples out of cyber criminals. We need to automate how data is processed and correlated in order to shorten our time to response. Read more.
Is information sharing the answer to turning the tide on cybersecurity?
While the threats from cybercriminals and terrorist organizations are real and concerning, unintentional internal issues account for a lot of industrial security incidents. In critical infrastructure organizations, software misconfigurations from human error, malfunctioning network protocols, and device behavior are all issues to still keep an eye on. A holistic security approach can protect against intentional targeted attacks as well as human error from internal sources. Solving Industrial Control Systems (ICS) security issues requires a solution that unifies the best of current OT network security capabilities with an extensive understanding of ICS processes and protocols.

Bluebonnets are in bloom and plentiful this year, so it's really worth the drive to Ennis for this weekend's Bluebonnet Trails Festival.
The festival is happening at the peak time for bluebonnets, so you definitely want to bring your camera for a great photo op.
If you don't believe Ennis is the best place to see the state flower in bloom, just consider that the 1997 State Legislature made it official that Ennis is home of the "Official Texas Bluebonnet Trail" and the city was designated the "Official Bluebonnet City of Texas."
Enough said.
If you're not familiar with Ellis County and not sure where to go to see the state flower in abundance, never fear. The Ennis Visitor's Center will be handing out free maps of the Bluebonnet Trails, and maps will be available during the festival at the Ennis Garden Club Headquarters tent on N.W. Main Street.
Jake and Tina Regier tell us it's a beautiful drive.
"The drive is full of Texas Bluebonnets, Indian Paintbrush and many more flowers," the Regier's said via e-mail. "Very colorful, with more orange (Indian Paintbrush) than there have been in years – some fields are only paintbrush; however, others are blue, orange and yellow with the entire selection."
It's not just about the drive; the Ennis Bluebonnet Trails Festival also features arts, crafts, bluebonnet souvenirs, food and live music.

30th September, 1990
My dear Pranav,
Some time back I wrote to you that I would describe the idea of gramdan given by Vinoba. Actually, this idea grew out of the concept of Bhoodan.
In bhoodan, Vinoba was asking people to donate one-sixth of their land to representative of Daridranarayan. He told people; "I am your sixth brother. I am a Brahmin. Give me my sixth share as a representative of the poor, landless labourers." He collected 4.2 millions acres of land, and most of it was distributed.
Vinoba expressed an idea that as air and sunshine are free gifts of God, we should also consider land as His Gift.
"Sab bhoomi gopalki (All land belongs to Gopal - Lord Krishna)." Nobody can be the owner of land for all are sons of Mother earth. We are all sons of the soil. "Mata bhoomih putro aham prithivyah" (Earth is our mother and we are all her sons). We are all bhoomiputras. We must share her favours. We do not own our mother. We serve her. That was his message in Bhoodan.
In Bihar in 1953,Vnoba took the next step. It was called gramdan. He wanted an entire village to renounce the ownership of all lands and declare them property of the whole village. Nobody could buy or sell or mortgage it. All debts created on its basis would be extinguished. People of village would cultivate it. It would be equitably distributed for cultivation. Government help, finance, fertilizers, etc. would go to the village. This idea would have revolutionized the entire rural landscape. Rural indebtedness, unequal distribution, disputes between the landless and the landlords would have all changed. It was an idea of Total Revolution.
Many villages, blocks talukas in Bihar Orissa were declared as gramdani villages. But this movement or idea did not take off. It remained a dream.
Vinoba obviously was not upset by its failure. He wanted to collect 500 million acres in bhoodan. He collected about 50 million. He started many Gramdans, but they did not survive. Redistribution of 50 million acres of land was still a great achievement. Nobody ever thought it possible. Vinoba made it possible.
What power did he have? Was he the elected representative of the people? Did he have state power? Did he have an army to enforce his demands? Was this accepted by all? Did it fit into our idea of economic man? Answers to all these questions are in the negative. But Vinoba got an idea at Pochampalli in Andhra Pradesh on 18th April, 1951. He could perceive its significance in the Indian context. He could appeal to the people of India. He could appeal to their spiritual roots in their own language. He could "see" a new idea. He was a darsanik. He could achieve it. He achieved it without bloodshed, without money. He achieved it peacefully, by appealing to the hearts of the people.
In other countries of the world, the redistribution of land has been done with force, with bloodshed, and with pain all around. Vinoba lighted a new path in this context.
With love,
L. N. Godbole

"Ritsu, it's only been a couple of days," Mio said. She feinted to the left, then backed and half-turned to avoid a mimed punch that would've been a firebending strike in a real fight. "We just have to be patient."
Is this indicative that Ritsu is a bender? Or are they just playing, rather than sparring? From the rest of the context, I got sparring.

NKU's New School of the Arts Prepares to Open First Artistic Collaboration
The first artistic collaboration at Northern Kentucky University's new School Of The Arts (SOTA) has it all – art, music, drama.
Theatre Sets of Liliana Duque Piñeiro, on view in Northern Kentucky University's Main Gallery from Sept. 24-Oct. 30, will have walls filled with sketches, renderings, models of past work, just as you'd expect.
The collaboration makes it much more.
Singers, musicians, and actors will come to the gallery for special performance evenings on Oct. 1 & 2, for a short program (under 90 minutes) of opera and play readings, all with sets designed by the artist, in NKU's Main Gallery.
Piñeiro's work with NKU art and theater department students will give gallery visitors the opportunity to see art-in-progress and artists-at-work, beginning with the first day of the exhibit.
The inspiration for the performance is a deeply personal one for Piñeiro. She was researching an idea when she learned her mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's.
The sculptor/set designer's work at NKU "became about my childhood hero fading away." Piñeiro looked through scripts – "a lot" – searching for work "that a lot of people would be able to relate to."
She found two plays in a collection from Memorycare, in which patients and their caregivers tell their stories. She also discovered Alzheimer's Stories by composer Robert Cohen, a work with an arc which loosely mimics the progression of the disease.
Piñeiro says, "It's sad but it's also uplifting."
Opera faculty and students will perform the excerpt from the opera, featuring two soloists and a chorus; theater students will participate in the staged reading, with faculty members Brian Robertson stage directing and Eric Knechtges directing the music.
The performances will be videotaped and will be on view for the remaining weeks of the exhibit. "It's so exciting – it's going to be my vision," she said, applauding the "great generosity" of the collaborating departments. "Collaboration is what makes theater amazing!"
As many as 20 "theater set design and lighting design, sculpture, and gallery intern students," says NKU gallery director David Knight, will work with the artist beginning Sept. 21 to complete the construction of the playing spaces in the gallery space. Piñeiro expects the short time frame to be "stressful but interesting."
The opportunity to open the process to visitors is one of the most important aspects of the collaboration, says Knight. Piñeiro agrees. "I want people to understand where things are coming from."
Some of her past work may be familiar to fans of University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music, where Piñeiro designed several CCM shows when she was earning her MFA.
The new stage designs created for the live performances will be spare and symbolic. Piñeiro says they will suggest "how the past and present collide."
Virginia Woolf's "Death of a Moth" was the point of creation for one set, in which a chair with wings stands next to a window. The tile floor has a broken grid. "There but not there," Piñeiro muses.

Next weekend we're going to be visiting with some friends after doing "a day out with thomas ". They live about 90 minutes away, thankfully both kids do well in the car. They have 2 spare rooms and invited us to stay the weekend. Of course our ability to do so relies entirely on W. W has never slept anywhere other than his own bed. We had to get him a double so i can sleep with him when he needs me because he won't even sleep in our bed. But we are literally going to bring all his bedding, stuffed animals, toys, and white noise machine to try to make it feel as much like his own room as possible. Thankfully W met my friend Dan yesterday and loves him. After less than 2 hours of playing with Dan W passed out and had a 2 hour nap (something he rarely does). I'm hoping after all the excitement of thomas and then spending some time with Dan that W will just be so exhausted that he'll pass out without too much fuss. Otherwise we'll have to come back home. We've warned Dan and his wife about the whole situation and thankfully they are cool about it.
I'm nervous about it but I really hope we might be able to spend the night.
The joys of having an autistic toddler is you literally never know what to expect but you do the best you can and learn from each new experience.

SWFL finals week two: Grand final spot on the line
By the end of this weekend we will know one of the 2018 South West Football League grand finallists, with Donnybrook and Bunbury playing for a spot in the decider.
On the other hand, one team will have its premiership aspirations cut short, with Eaton and August Margaret River battling to keep their season alive.
Check out our preview of this week's games and let us know who you think will win.
Second semi-final: Donnybrook vs Bunbury
Donnybrook will host Bunbury at VC Mitchell Park on Sunday afternoon with the first grand final place on the line.
The Dons finished the season on top of the ladder and as a result had last weekend off. It's not clear whether the extra week of rest will prove to be a help or a hindrance however.
On one hand, Donnybrook would have had the time to rest up after suffering a few injuries in the back half of the year, but recently history has shown form may be more important when it comes to finals with the team finishing on top of the ladder losing the semi final in each of the past three years.
The Dons will have a challenge containing the Bunbury forward line, but their defenders have shown they are up to the challenge throughout the year. Donnybrook conceded just 55 points a game over the season – almost a goal less than any other team – and conceded 10 goals in a game on just four occasions.
But they will have their hands full with Bunbury, who have won their last eight games and kicked at least ten goals in each of those games.
The key for the Tigers has been the forward depth, with three players – Brett Peake, Matt Martin and Dylan Heasman – recorded double figure goal tallies over the last eight weeks.
But equally important will be the battle in the midfield, with the teams boasting arguably the two strongest midfields in the competition.
It's likely that which ever team is able to take control of the clearance game will give their forwards the opportunity to kick a winning score.
It's a hard one to pick with both teams claiming a win over one another during the season, but Bunbury's recent form and the comfortable win they claimed over the Dons just a month ago would have to give the Bulldogs confidence of qualifying for their second straight grand final.
Prediction: Bunbury by 10 points.
First semi-final: Eaton Boomers vs Augusta Margaret River
Arguably the more interesting game of the weekend is the first semi final between Eaton and Augusta Margaret River at Glen Huon Reserve on Sunday.
The Hawks capped off a strong late season charge towards finals with a thrilling one point win over South Bunbury, which should give them the confidence to be a genuine threat for the premiership.
But if they want to go all the way, they'll have to address their tendency to start games slowly. Despite their strong results in the second half of the season, they almost always had to come from behind as they've lost the first quarter in eight of their past 10 games.
It hasn't seemed to hurt them too much however, as the Hawks have managed to improve their output to an average of 82.5 points a game over the last six weeks.
It is the defensive side of the game that sometimes leaves the Hawks vulnerable. Although improving their defense vastly in the back half of the season, the Hawks' defenders play an attacking style and aren't always too concerned with shutting down the opponents' forwards.
That would be a risk this week with Eaton being the league's highest scoring team. The Boomers also finished the season with seven players kicking more than 10 goals, the most of any team.
Two of those players were important forwards Heath Ryder, who has kicked seven goals in the last two weeks, and Brandon Jetta, who kicked bags of four in both games against the Hawks.
The key for the Boomers will be to put 10 goals on the board, with Eaton yet to lose a game when its reached that mark but failing to win eight of the 10 games it didn't.
It should be a close game, but Augusta Margaret River's recent form should give it the confidence to pull out another tight win this week.
Prediction: Augusta Margaret River by three points.

That's sort of a random post title, don't ya think? Well, there is a fairly humorous reason for that. Apparently our guild is chalked full of tanks and healers. Actually we have excess tanks. Far more than we need. But we seem to be lacking DPS. Go figure. We couldn't go make our 25-man Malygos attempts last night which left everyone to fend for themselves. And I had the bright idea of taking the reins of a 10-man Naxxramas. Warbull needs some (more) gear and there were a few pieces I wouldn't mind picking up.
We found some healers, had 2 tanks and we lacked . . . two DPS. So we thought, PUGing DPS, it can't be that bad. It's just DPS. Oy. Way to prove me wrong. The run started well enough. Clearing, you know, things. But I would like to express the amount of hilarious failure that was 7/10ths of our raid when it came to the Heigan dance. That's right. 7 of our 10 people died during the Heigan dance. Luckily the 3 people that stayed alive was the tank, a holy Paladin, and myself. While it would have been faster to wipe, to that we said nay! And I ended up having 49% of the total damage. Go figure.
There were a few things I still wanted from Naxx 10-man. And I think it's safe to say I got them. We grabbed an Arc-Scorched Helmet, a pair of Trespasser's Boots, a Cloak of Mastery, and the Key to the Focusing Iris which turns into the Pendant of the Dragonsworn once I kill 10-man Malygos again. Now I am pretty happy with some of the the things I picked up, but the run became more painful as the night went on. We ended up kicking a Rogue who apparently couldn't figure out how to get on Vent and wouldn't move out of the Void Zone thingys on Kel'Thuzad. But it could have been worse. Not sure how, but it could have been worse.
Not everyone likes gear posts so I won't bother linking things I have picked up recently. But if you are interested, check my Armory. I've been lucky lately.
But now I want to share a story with you if you don't mind. Recently on WoW Insider had an article called Ethics of a Botched Deal. The Greedy Goblin wrote a very insightful response which you can read right here. There are some great points made about erring on the side of the consumer and what not. My story kind of relates to that on the side me erring and repercussions later. And while my story probably wouldn't have any effect anymore if it happened today, when this took place, it was a much different time.
When I was still playing my Warrior, Aratar, I was browsing the Auction House for Blacksmith patterns I didn't have. Now I have say this was a long time ago. Most of the server wasn't level 60 yet. Only a few people had epic mounts at this point. And I mean only a few. There wasn't a confirmation box on the Auction House or anything. Money was hard to come by and I was constantly being inspected and whispered because I was rocking Valor gear as I made my money selling Ornate Mithril gear on the Auction House, because that's how I rolled.
I was placing small bids on patterns I didn't have yet. These bids were in the size of 10s, 15s, etc. No amount of money anyone would second guess in the current game. And there was the plans for the Silvered Bronze Shoulders. I placed my bid of 25 silver and headed over to the mailbox to pick-up a few other auctions that I won. But much to my surprise, when I opened my bags, I was missing far more than a few silver. In fact I was missing 25 gold. That's a hefty amount when your total stockpile was only like 100 gold after being one of the first people to grab an epic mount (I was rocking the old school pure black Nightsaber by the way).
Ahhhhh crap. I ran back over to the Auction House to confirm my mistake. Someone named Vicious has sitting on my bid of 25 gold for this level 20 Blacksmithing pattern. "Calm down" I thought to myself. "/who Vicious." 0 players found. Post on the realm forums. Come on random person name Vicious. Log on! Later that evening, sure enough, Vicious, the level 37 Warlock, logs on so I make contact. I tell him that I placed a bid on his auction but mis-typed. If he would be willing to cancel the auction I would still pay him 10g for the patterns, waaaaay more than what they are worth, just so I could try and recoup some of the loss from me being a moron.
He said he would think about it. *Sigh* Very well. There was only a few hours left on the auction. So I waited patiently. And later that evening I whisper him again. At this point he informs me he is just going to let the auction run its course. He is almost level 40 and his brother's Paladin is almost level 40 and they need mount money.
His Warlock and Paladin brother. Need mount money. /facepalm
And that's where I thought the story would end. I accepted responsibility of mis-bidding and moved on with life, letting anyone know that if they wanted some Silvered Bronze Shoulders made, come to me. Mine would be awesome. Let's fast-forward a bit to the part where we are the number one raiding guild on the server, we've cleared Molten Core and Onyxia and I am the main tank and famous for my collection of weapons including a Hand of Rag, Teebu's Blazing Longsword, and a Runeblade of Baron Rivendare. Here's how it went down:
Alaina (Guildmaster, now Shandara): Ara, there is a post in the recruitment forums you should go check out.
Aratar: Why?
Alaina: Just go look.
Alt-tab out to our site, nav to the forums and check out the new apps. And there it was. Sitting as a new thread just waiting for me.
"Vicious, level 60 Warlock" was the thread title. Now my guild knew this story. They knew it well. And I laughed when I read Alaina's/Shandara's post that read "Vicious, we are going to turn your application over to our main tank, Aratar. Perhaps you know him."
Of all the bad deals I have had through out WoW, that one stuck with me. Maybe it was the part where his application said he was helpful and giving person. Maybe it was all his decision to keep the money way back when. Who knows. But in the end the only thing I did was deny this Warlock the ability to raid with us and the opportunity to be a big jerk. But that day I smiled a little demonic smile.
So that's my story. Thoughts, comments, etc. Post 'em here. :)

Brightly colored. frosted kitchen cabinets with glass doors makes it easy to see inside, convenient to find and use but still sufficiently tight to reduce dust. Moreover, this type of door is very suitable when items inside are not so beautiful and "tinted" together because it will not be exposed. There are many different ways of combining cabinet doors to make cabinets look lively and eye-catching.

For example, you can combine cream-colored wooden cabinets with white cabinet doors to create a nice contrast to cabinet. Or, for example, glass doors and closed wooden doors are combined. Kitchen cabinets with glass doors are used to help display beautiful objects. Wooden doors help you store bulky and less beautiful items. Sliding door is possible to replace normal door into a pull door, but when you open it, you just pull up instead of open to horizontal, quite save area. For example, in next picture, beige pull door would be suitable for bulky wardrobes.

Vellano Faces His Ex-Teammates at 2nd Super Bowl
Eds: This story is part of special coverage of the Super Bowl, a collaboration between Capital News Service and the Shirley Povich Center for Sports Journalism at the University of Maryland Philip Merrill College of Journalism.
HOUSTON — Joe Vellano couldn't contain his excitement when he called his father, Paul, on Jan. 17.
Five days before the Atlanta Falcons played in the NFC Championship, the practice-squad defensive tackle had earned a spot on the team's active roster.
"He was just gnawing at the bit to get activated again," Paul Vellano told Capital News Service.
The Falcons beat the Green Bay Packers, 44-21, thanks to a stifling defensive effort in which Vellano contributed a tackle.
That positioned the former Maryland All-American for his second Super Bowl trip in three seasons, coming Sunday against the New England Patriots, the team that cut Vellano before the season during what was perhaps the most overwhelming week of his life.
"I have some friends who were playing through the years, 10 years, never went to a playoff game," said Paul Vellano, also a former Maryland All-American. "For him to get two Super Bowls with two different teams is quite a unique experience."
Two years ago, Vellano participated in the 2015 Super Bowl festivities as the Patriots prepared for their victory against the Seattle Seahawks. He signed with New England as an undrafted free agent in 2013 and had multiple stints on the active roster and practice squad.
He was inactive in the Super Bowl win, but he's one of the few Falcons this season with championship experience. He's reminding teammates to treat practices as normal, prepare for a longer game and collect souvenirs.
Vellano is paying extra personal attention to the latter suggestion because he lost almost all of his 2015 memorabilia a few months ago.
After pregame warm-ups for the Patriots' preseason finale Sept. 1, Vellano returned to the locker room to multiple phone calls.
He didn't want to disrupt his focus, but he answered. The landlord of his duplex in Attleboro, Massachusetts, was on the other end. His house had caught fire and was totaled.
The shock didn't stop him from playing the game — his brother and fiancé helped settle the initial details while he was busy — and he slept at a friend's house that night.
As he worked with insurance companies, his landlord and the fire department the next day, Vellano also grappled with his destroyed possessions.
The pictures from the Super Bowl were gone. So were his jerseys. His team-autographed helmets had melted. His ring, however, was secure in a safe deposit box.
On Sept. 3, the Patriots released him on the final round of training camp cuts.
"It happened all within 48 hours," Vellano said, "so kind of all a whirlwind."
The upheaval continued when the Falcons signed him to their practice squad and he moved to Atlanta three days later.
Throughout the regular season, he worked on the scout team against the offensive starters, earning Practice Player of the Week honors twice. He also traveled with the team for away games, tracking plays on the sideline, preparing for an opportunity to suit up.
"Joe's a great example of pushing each other," Falcons offensive lineman Chris Chester said. "Trying to make you better as well as get himself better."
Vellano's drive caught coach Dan Quinn's attention and prompted the playoff promotion when defensive end Adrian Clayborn injured his biceps in the divisional round.
Vellano admits the opportunity coming at his teammates' injury was tough, but he couldn't hide his smile Monday during Super Bowl's opening media night at Minute Maid Park.
He had a few hats and a commemorative towel tucked under his arm as he spoke about the anticipation of competing against his former teammates after a strenuous few months.
"Getting the chance to take live bullets in the Super Bowl," Vellano said, "is kind of what I've been wanting to do since I was four or five years old."

The two cities of Nagarote and La Paz Centro have a disagreement that started decades ago. The legend is that in the 1980's, when the government of Nicaragua started promoting tourism, La Paz Centro put up a big sign that said "Birthplace of the Quesillo." Nagaroteñans disagree heartily, claiming that the Quesillo originated in Nagarote and was stolen by La Paz Centro. Given that the two towns are only 9 miles apart, this is a disagreement that is not likely to be resolved any time soon.
A quesillo is a tortilla with a thin stretchy cheese (kind of like mozzarella), chopped onions, and heavy cream. They roll them up in a plastic bag of course, and I just learned the Nicaraguan trick to eating them without spilling the cream everywhere. Eat the tortilla and cheese 2/3 of the way down, then tie a knot in the plastic bag. Flip it over, and bite the corner off the plastic bag, so you can suck out the cream along with the rest of the creamy, gooey, flavorful quesillo.
After two weeks of bugging me every time we drive past La Paz Centro for quesillos, I treated the interns and project Coordinator Luis to Quesillos and Tiste, a drink made from corn, ground cocoa, and cinnamon. We are drinking the tiste out of traditional cups made from Jicaro shells.

acquaintance, animal, brother, dog, family, fiction, Maine, man, mystery, narrative, orange boy, pet, photography, photos, quest, reunion, revelation, sniff, visit, woman
This weekend, I paid a visit to Man's parents and family in Maine. I am always excited to call on them, and chased my tail in the kitchen to express my joy.
I reacquainted myself with all of the quiet corners of the house, and explored anew the places which I had been familiar with in the past. I became the center of the gathering of people there, collecting attention and interesting smells like choice blooms from a field. Man's family and some of their friends were there and I enjoyed making the acquaintance of these delightful humans.
All in all, I passed a pleasant day and evening in the Maine home. Then, this morning, Woman took me on walk around the neighborhood. On that walk, reader, some surprising events took place. I almost hesitate to tell you, but I must lay out the muddled thoughts which crowd my mind.
At first, Woman and I explored the pastoral scenery in the neighborhood of Man's parents' home. I smelled the sea air, the damp moss and leaves, and the leftover snow from the first wintry precipitation of the season.
Afterward, I strolled through some of tiny streets and alleys of the more urban part of town. As I wandered, I caught snatches of a familiar scent and seemed always to hear the movements of another canine somewhere close by, but whenever I chanced to turn and search for the source of the noises, I could not find anyone.
Then, I rounded a corner, and there he was: Orange Boy.
My brother and I stared at one another. I could not believe my eyes–yet there had been signs, and I had always felt sure he must be alive. After a moment, we bounded toward one another, sniffing the plethora of scents which attach to a dog over a lifetime and become part of who he is. We circled and studied one another, taking our time, tails wagging with the joy of acquaintance renewed.
Orange Boy was almost identical to me except for one missing optic: yes, dear reader–my brother's left eye was missing and covered instead by a dark patch.
"What happened to your eye?" I asked him, and he looked down, pawing at his nose, remembering.
"I will tell you…one day…but not today. What are you called now? I know that you have a family. I have been close–I have been watching you–and I have seen them."
I sensed that there was a mystery here which ran deep–deeper than I had ever before imagined. For the first time, I began to feel a little afraid, and to wonder what my brother had been through in the years since we had parted. I told him my name and something of my life, and he listened attentively, but offered no intelligence in return.
The wind picked up and Orange Boy's ears twitched and his nostrils flared as he was alerted by something I did not sense or understand.
"I have to depart," he told me, gravely, "but listen. I wanted to warn you not to inquire further into my past–do not track my scent. Had I been a better brother, I would not have ventured near you at all, but I could not help myself, and I have endangered you. Do not feel to melancholy; I will find you again when I can. Now, I have to go, and I advise you not to linger here."
With that, my brother paced away into the dark shadow between two buildings. I was left bewildered and numb. I had felt so much so quickly–the elation of meeting my brother, alive, and then the fear that accompanied his cryptic warning and the emptiness that flooded into me with his sudden departure.
That night, I lay by the fire and let the whole day play through my mind again and again. I felt a tumult of emotions coursing through me and I struggled to maintain my outward calm. The humans pet me and distracted me with their affectionate attentions, but my mind was elsewhere, on my brother and the mystery opening up in front of me like a maze.
Ships that pass in the night and speak each other in passing;
Only a signal shown and a distant voice in the darkness;
So on the ocean of life we pass and speak one another,
Only a look and a voice; then darkness again and a silence.
-Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Tales of a Wayside Inn

LINK: ArcGIS Tools for Conservation Planning
LINK is a set of Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) ArcGIS tools designed to analyze habitat patterns across a landscape. LINK is the latest product from a series of Decision Support Systems (DSS) that uses species habitat matrices to model potential species habitat and habitat diversity. What sets LINK apart from its predecessors is that it uses raster data sources. Raster data sources allow LINK to model habitat over a much larger area than its vector based ancestors.
LINK's main purpose is to make comparisons of conservation potential between management units and the surrounding landscape. LINK does this by summarizing potential species richness, habitat diversity, and habitat composition.
There are three main data sources needed to run a LINK Query. These data sources include matrices, source layers, and zonal layers (Figure 1).
LINK relates values contained in a matrix to a raster data layer, called a source layer, to generate indices of potential habitat. The program summarizes indices of potential
The matrix related to the source layer has habitat suitability scores ranging from 0 (little to no value as habitat) to 100(prime habitat). For each cover type within the source layer there is a corresponding column within the matrix (Figure 2). The Relationship Manager allows the user to create an association between matrices and source layers, and between source layers and zonal layers.
The source layer is a raster spatial data layer that contains landscape information for the species listed in the matrix. The source layer must be an integer ESRI Grid (e.g. National Land Cover Dataset). A zonal layer is an ESRI Shapefile used to divide the landscape into units of comparison. Counties within a state or management units within a refuge are examples of zonal layers.

Impact of UMESC Science
LINK allows for regional analysis of habitat suitability, habitat diversity, and species abundance. This is an explorative tool to be utilized by land managers to strategize conservation effort.

Fishing is full of surprises. I know I often go on about this but the ocean's creatures turn up in some of the strangest places sometimes. I find this intriguing and exciting and just another reason why I love fishing so much.
Just the other day, my four sons and I were out having a quick before-school fish in our little 4.3-metre tinny. We had already caught a few salmon and were happily trolling about 50 metres off the rocks below the Terrigal Skillion when up popped two killer whales between us and the shore!
To see these beautiful creatures moving along the rock face not 20 metres from shore while their tall dorsal fins sliced through the surface was an unforgettable sight. I think they must have been looking for salmon or a stray seal.
We followed them north for a good 40 minutes during which they were often only 150 metres off Terrigal and Wamberal beaches.
Scotty Thorington of Haven Fishing Charters (phone 0419 440 869) reports great hauls of snapper from 40 metres out to 80 metres, although some days it's almost impossible to fish as the current is pouring hard from the north.
A few striped marlin usually show up in November along the shelf. Around the shallow reefs and headlands kingies, tailor and a few bonito respond well to pillies on floater rigs as well as trolled minnows and plastic squids.
Broken Bay, the Hawkesbury River and Brisbane Water jewies start to hit top gear with the monster flathead hot on their heels. Big kingies are still around though they should taper off later this month.
Tailor and bream become more prolific as more baitfish move into these areas. The techniques, baits and rigs shown in my Jewfish Secrets DVD should bring results. Expect to see big flathead as by-catch.
This is a good time to start throwing lures around as the bream and flathead become more aggressive and active as the water warms. Chuck from Baits 'R' Us at The Entrance (phone 4334 3219) reports good action as the lake comes alive with fish, prawns and crabs. The mouth is open and you will find flathead and whiting. The entrance to Wyong and Chittaway creeks be a good location to set some crab traps.
The sand flats are starting to produce on soft plastics and fly. Try killer tomato Squidgy Fish with a 5g jig head for flatties. Most prawners will be working the run-out tides from November 2 to 16. With the warmer weather the areas around Toukley and Budgewoi come alive as well.
On the beaches the salmon should go and the tailor should come, while big jewies will start to move in as well. There'll also be flathead and whiting, of course.
I always expect the unexpected and for this reason I always ensure I have a big bait out, regardless of where I'm fishing. In the estuaries I always make sure that the first legal fish that comes to the boat ends up with a big hook in its back and is turfed back in. There might be a monster jewie cruising right past and if you have nothing but tiny baits to offer, there's every chance you won't even know it's swum past.
November sees the jewies hit top gear in the lower estuaries and along the beaches.Reads: 1045

There has recently been a controversy in the Indian blogosphere about what the projection of power means. In the interests of enlightening lay readers, I asked my good friend and international relations expert Dr. Boris Bhartriraj Pandey to prepare a guide to power projection. Boris is currently a post-doctoral fellow at Parma, and his family background is even more impressive – his parents are the distinguished academics Dr. Acharya Somuchidononanda Pandey and Dr. Valentina Dimitrieva Pandey. He has written a short monograph on the subject at the Pandey family blog. It is also reproduced in it's entirety here, with his permission:
The Raja-mandala Re-centredJuly 15, 2008
The Turban PoliceJuly 13, 2008
I want to start a blog dedicated to badly dressed sardars. And call it Go Pug Yourself.
Karva Chauth and KansaJuly 8, 2008
Over the past few years, Punjew men (axshully also Kayastha boyfriends of Punjew woomaans) have been fasting on Karva Chauth along with their wives and girlfriends. For some reason this is hailed as a triumph of women's liberation and feminism.
This is bollocks. An equal sharing of foodlessness, dizziness and abstinence can hardly be considered a triumph of feminism. Wasn't the whole point of feminism to make things better? All this does is spread the pain around more. If I was a paranoid maniac, I would suspect it was a sinister Allahabadi plot to make Punjew men week and feeble and incapable of rising up in glorious resistance. Wait, I am a paranoid maniac. Anyway.
The point is that true women's liberation would involve nobody fasting and putting themselves through all that torture at all. If this was really a festival of louw, it would involve the couple going out and feeding each other rare delicacies. The idea would be to maximise pleasure, not pain.
Therefore, when the glorious Punjabi nation rises again, and throws off the cultural imperialism of the hated Allahbadis, Karva Chauth will be celebrated by the happy couple going out and feasting on a delicious infant platter for lunch. Instead of starving all day waiting for the moon to show up, Punjew couples will be eating babies through the day. Thus furthering three excellent causes: Saivite neo-Edwardianism, women's liberation, and the continued growth of the Kansa Society.
Not Wasting FoodJuly 2, 2008
Love Food Hate Waste has five tips on how to save money by not wasting food (via). Although the list has been designed with a UK audience in mind, some of the tips hold equally well for us junta sitting in India. For example:
Tinned beans, frozen vegetables, meat and fish and dried fruit, nuts, pasta & noodles, rice & grains, are all essentials with a long shelf life – meaning you will always have the ingredients standing by to pull together a delicious meal or to jazz up your leftovers. The trick is to replace items once you have used them up. It helps to keep a note stuck on the inside of the cupboard door – scribble down items as soon as you have finished them and check it when you write your shopping list.
Planning your meals is one of the most effective ways you can cut wastage and food bills. Start by checking your fridge, freezer and store cupboard so you don't shop for things you already have.
When I was in Bangalore, not planning my meals in the morning could lead to disaster. I would forget I had fruit or salad lying in the fridge, and then eat dinner out near office assuming there was nothing at home to prepare. By the next day, the salad would have spoilt, and I would have wasted the salad as well as the cost of the dinner out. Sticking a list of what I did have on the fridge door every weekend would have helped in the planning meals if I'd checked it every day and planned my dinner and breakfast according to it.
On a related note, it's time to bring up another rant about refrigerators (people who read my mailing list know I do this often). Picking a refrigerator is fraught with peril. You're always trading off convenience with expense and a tendency to waste.
I positively hate manual defrost refrigerators. If the light goes for extended periods (as it does so often in India) you wind up with a huge puddle on the kitchen floor. If you forget to defrost, whatever is in the freezer gets iced over and you have to go at it with a pickaxe. And I'm too much a twenty-first century types to remember to defrost the thing myself. That's the fridge's job, dammit!
Now unfortunately a frost-free fridge comes in large sizes and so uses more electricity than the manual defrost ones (in addition to being more expensive to begin with anyhow). The large size also means you have a tendency to throw stuff in there and then forget it's there – as I did with my salads.
Fortunately, there are mitigants. You can cut down on the wasted electricity by filling the freezer with water bottles so all that energy goes to some use. And sticking a list of what's in there on the fridge door could help you avoid forgetting it.
Extreme geekiness alert: In fact, if you wanted to truly power-use your fridge lists, you could create an individual Post-it for every item, and flip the Post-its around so that what you were planning to use in the evening would be right on top. The only way to be even geekier is to have a laptop in the kitchen and update your fridge MIS on an Excel sheet (or Google spreadsheets for that matter) as you remove stuff from the fridge and eat/ cook it. Sadly, my kitchen in Bangalore was too small to allow this. But I recommend it highly – a laptop in the kitchen also means you can download recipes.
The stuff I've written above does assume that:
- You do your food-buying-and-preparing yourself, instead of leaving it to your bai. Given how much people complain about the quality of their domestic help, they damn well ought to do it themselves instead of leaving it to their bai.
- You're a relative newbie when it comes to managing your kitchen, and you haven't internalised obvious stuff like remembering what you have already.
- You actually have a kitchen (so many people in Bombay just take dabbas and heat them) and give a shit about running it properly.
What with current trends of urbanisation, corporatisation, sararimanisation, growing numbers of young migrant professionals, growing salary demands of bais, yada yada, I think the number of people fulfilling the above conditions will grow. This is my yumble contribution to them. Maybe, I should set up a post/ page for useful kitchen tips.

Mental Marginalia's 2th Annibirthdary Party
MENTAL MARGINALIA, literary NYC's drunk uncle, turns two this month. To celebrate we're bringing back a few of our favorite poets and we'll also have some poorly-thought out crowd-participatory activities. There's no way anything could go wrong.
Two-year-olds use their motor skills to explore the creative arts. They make sounds by banging and shaking instruments and household items. They enjoy dancing upon request, doing finger plays and acting out chants and songs. Children this age are also gaining control over their voices and will join in singing the refrains of their favorite songs. With art, they enjoy the sensory pleasures of the art materials and focus on the process of creating art, rather than the final product.
The Readers!:
Marina Blitshteyn enjoys using her senses and motor skills to explore the world and is highly curious about unfamiliar objects, events and phenomena. She can solve simple problems with the "trial and error" method and will practice an activity many times to master it. Marina also pretends more during play, using familiar objects and situations to process her daily experiences.
As Russell Dillon plays and completes his daily routines, he learns important math skills. He can use a toy to represent another object, recognize patterns with daily activities, and understand concepts of time like, "tomorrow" and "yesterday." Russell is just beginning to use logical reasoning to solve everyday problems. He can sort shapes, complete puzzles with eight pieces or less, and stack a set of rings on a peg by size. Russell also understands addition and subtraction with the numbers "one" and "two."
Physically, Chris Slaughter explores all the ways to travel from here to there, including rolling, crawling, creeping, walking, running, jumping, and climbing. He can also kick a small ball forward, catch a rolled ball, and throw a ball overhand (but with little accuracy). Chris loves finger play activities (e.g., "The Itsy, Bitsy, Spider"), pounding and squeezing clay, shaking rhythm instruments, and scribbling. He can turn doorknobs and unscrew lids and has improved his skills using eating utensils.
Katie Byrum's blossoming language skills prompt many "why," "what" and "how" questions. During the year, Katie has picked up most parts of speech to form more complete sentences. She can understand and say hundreds of words, but familiar adults may need to "translate" for others due to immature pronunciation skills. Katie also understands simple directions and many common phrases used in routine situations.

Member Profile profile for Bethany Wheeler
Bethany Wheeler
Artists Statement:
I am drawn to working with glass because we live in vitreous environments; it's a material that surrounds us in almost every part of life. Glass allows light to fill space, letting objects visually materialize and dematerialize simultaneously whilst describing interior and exterior space. It is charged with fascinating material paradoxes, fragility | solidity, liquid | solid, transparent | translucent | opaque – it is a hybrid that illustrates notions of the human condition and ways of seeing.
Artists Biography:
Bethany Wheeler is an artist based in Melbourne, Australia working in kiln formed glass and found materials. She obtained a Master of Fine Art degree from Monash University in 2003 and has been exhibiting her work both nationally and internationally for the past 15 years. Bethany's work can be found in private and public collections including the National Glass Art Collection of Australia. In 2013 she established 1000 Degrees Glass Studios, a communal kiln forming and cold working studio in Melbourne.

Seven Centre College students recently received top recognition for exceptional research in the political sciences.
Two groups in Prof. Benjamin Knoll's politics class "Parties, Campaigns and Elections" won the Abdul H. Rifai Award for the best paper presented by an undergraduate student from the 2015 Kentucky Political Science Association (KPSA) conference.
"We did a semester-long collaborative undergraduate research project," Knoll said. "Students were in groups of three to four, and each group was in charge of answering the same question: 'What accounts for the high level of ticket-splitting in Kentucky compared to other states?'
"Kentucky has a high rate of people voting Republican for president, senate and congress, but voting Democrat for governor, state legislature and at the local level," he continued.
Knoll and other faculty and students interested in politics attended a KPSA panel last year that focused on Kentucky politics. During the panel, he asked the experts why they thought there was more ticket-splitting in Kentucky than in other states.
"Some of them had ideas, but no one had a solid, comprehensive explanation," Knoll said. "It occurred to me that this would be an excellent topic for an undergraduate research project for students in my fall class."
Each student group tackled Knoll's question using different research tools, including statistical analysis, historical patterns or interviews.
While the answers the teams produced varied and didn't provide an overall conclusive explanation, Knoll said the answers and the research process was still very valuable.
"It helped us all better learn how knowledge is created and how the same question can have different answers depending on how the question was approached," Knoll said.
The two groups that received KPSA awards were:
• Matt Hart '16, Kathleen Kennedy '18 and Bryan Repishti '16.
• Chase Deppen '16, Matthew Gilbert '16, Ryan McDonald '15 and Kelli South '16.

The Place God Speaks
By Pastor Clif Briscoe on November 10, 2013 0 Comments
Prayer is a place of two way communication. God Speaks when we listen for his voice. It is not a cheap exchange. It will cost you, time, effort, and earnest seeking, but he is available through the power of the Holy Spirit.

Every care home in the UK will have residents who have some form of Dementia, such as Alzheimer's, Vascular Dementia and other cognitive disorders. But knowledge of the condition isn't the only challenge, we feel that understanding the resident on an individual level is just as crucial to their wellbeing.
Moving into a care home can be daunting even for someone with full capacity, but when you're facing the move whilst battling disorientation, and other impairments associated with Dementia, these feelings can be intensified. At Lighthouse Lodge we have a person-centred approach, getting to know the resident and making sure they're orientated to the space.
Leveraging our facilities and expertise, our dedicated dementia units are well equipped to support people with cognitive impairments such as Alzheimer's disease or vascular dementia. Because we offer both residential care and nursing care within our service, we can care for people with Dementia at all stages of their journey.
Our purpose-built care homes have been intelligently designed, making use of layout and décor to decrease disorientation, ensuring residents feel safe and secure in their home.
We also offer daily meaningful activities, tailored for those living with a dementia. We're committed to enabling our residents to lead fulfilling lives in a positive and enriching environment.
Furthermore, we're committed to using the latest techniques and best practices to make the lives of our residents better. For example, in many of our lodges we have a resident music therapist.
Music therapy has been shown to increase brain activity in dementia sufferers – thought to be due to a momentary increase in brain cell connectivity.
The Symptoms of Dementia typically relate to:
For example, difficulty recalling events that happened recently
For example, difficulties making decisions, solving problems or carrying out a sequence of tasks (such as cooking a meal)
For example, difficulties following a conversation or finding the right word for something
For example, problems judging distances (such as on stairs) and seeing objects in three dimensions
For example, losing track of the day or date, or becoming confused about where they are
For example, the individual may become frustrated or irritable, apathetic or withdrawn, anxious, easily upset or unusually sad.

Peacefully on Monday, December 11, 2017 at Concordia Hospital, Ken passed away at the age of 79 years.
Left to cherish his memory are sons, Ron (Carole), Brad (Lois), Rick (Jocelyn), daughter Charlene (Wes), grandchildren, Curtis (Jody), Michelle (Kevin), Brian (fiancée Paige), Stephanie, Vanessa, great grandchildren, Evan, Grant, Madeleine and Emma, brothers Glen (Kathy), Reuben (Tina), and Peter (Judy), and sister Joyce (Corny) as well as numerous family members.
Dad was predeceased by his parents, six siblings and our mom, Marge.
Dad was born and raised in Steinbach. He moved to Winnipeg as a young man where he met the love of his life (mein liebchen), Marge. Soon after they married, they started a family, moving to Transcona where they stayed for 41 years. Dad worked for Safeway as a meat manager/butcher for his entire career, retiring at the age of 61 years. He and Mom realized their retirement dream and moved to Patricia Beach where they spent the next 7 years until health issues forced them back to the city. After Mom's passing in 2013, Dad was well taken care of by Charlene and her family until his passing. As Dad lived out his final years, he continued to look forward to the family gatherings with his children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.
A celebration of Dad's life will be held at 10:00 a.m. Monday, December 18, 2017 at Glen Eden Funeral Home, 4477 Main Street, West St. Paul, MB. Interment will follow in Glen Eden Cemetery.
Our family wishes to thank the staff of Concordia Hospital 3E for their care during Dad's brief stay, as well as Pastor Keith Thompson of Cornerstone Baptist Church.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Dad's memory to MB Lung Association.
