Thanks to our National Poet, we have another day to add to the drinking calendar! Appropriate, then, that I should post on the day after Burns Night the second of my 26 Treasures. For this piece, I wanted to find something associated with The Bard. Unfortunately, the item that took my interest wasn't actually on display, so I had to look online for a picture.
Perhaps I should design my own family crest, as Burns did, to illustrate my piece. But no, there isn't time; I shall pilfer the picture instead, in the spirit of my little poem (which also steals a joke told to me by a friend who passed away a few years ago, so at least he'll not chase me for it.)
Stock-and-horn – from a Chanter, owned by Robert Burns
from my family crest; replace it
with a stock-and-horn, perhaps
I'd filch affinity with Burns.
Would I choose a bird, or bush
– Twisted Hazel, Song-Thrush –
swap the mottled tartan; maybe
something more exotic, or plain?
I'd pilfer, for a motto, 'What
defines a courteous Scot?
One who kens to play the
pipes… but chooses not.'

He loves all things Japanese and wanted to be something uniquely Japanese, easy to recognize, but not a human.
I present to you, the Sakura tree (Japanese cherry tree)!
Here's how we made it:
First, we cut the flowers out of tissue paper (there's an origami fold for this). Three at a time works best.
Then we scrunched them into a pleasing shape.
Then we made the branches (this is three layers of out of a utility box glued together with hot glue. A finger may have gotten burned at this stage).
Then we used a drill press to make holes for the harness, and hot glued on the flowers. A different finger may have gotten burned at this stage.
Made the helmet. We scored the cardboard to make it bendy.
Added more flowers, put some reflective tape on the back of the branches, attached the branches to the trunk (attired in brown pants, an outgrown brown sweater, and a brown t-shirt), and the costume is complete.
Here he is outside:
He's out right now with his friends. What costumes are happening at your house?

The Dawn of Modernity - The Beginnings of the New City
Introduction - ' The Backwater of a Dying Empire'Despite glorious beginnings, Jerusalem didn't fare well under Turkish rule. The 17th - 19th centuries were a period of social and economic decay. The central government in Istanbul was weak and inefficient. Local governors often functioned as independent rulers. Having little connection to the city or country before their arrival and knowing their stay wouldn't be long few high ranking Ottoman officials in the local administration ctually cared about the city or its residents. Much of their activity was directed at personal financial enrichment, until they could move on to a more desirable location. Security in the country deteriorated, especially on the roads. The activities of marauders made road travel dangerous, except in large groups. Consequently few foreign visitors came to Jerusalem. The security problems, together with cruel actions by corrupt officials (high taxes, confiscations, etc.) also resulted in a sharp decline of the of the village population. In many areas of the country, including the Jerusalem region, sedentary village culture gave way to nomadism.
Jerusalem's population dwindled to less than 10,000 residents. Evidence of the city's decline may be seen in the fact that Napoleon, who crossed the Land of Israel's Coastal Plain between Egypt and Acco twice in 1799, never bothered to visit Jerusalem, because it was not on his route. Apparently Jerusalem was not sufficiently important/attractive to justify a 60 kilometer diversion for an emperor who had crossed half the world. Jerusalem had truly become a 'backwater of a dying empire'.
Non-Moslems, and non Ottoman citizens lived under numerous restrictions, especially with regard to land purchase and building development they were also subject to special taxes which they paid both to the Turks and the local Moslem authorities. The city's Jewish community grew at this time, but its absolute numbers remained small. Many Christian denominations no longer maintained bishops or patriarch of (or at least in ) Jerusalem.
A Century of ChangeThis situation was to change dramatically in the 19th century. Several divergent forces simultaneously influenced the city's population and urban growth. These forces may be grouped together in three categories: Ottoman legal, administrative and political reforms; Jewish immigration and neighborhood building; 'Great Powers' and foreign Christian activity in Jerusalem.
Ottoman ReformsOttoman reform in Jerusalem, as well as the rest of the Land of Israel, didn't begin with the Ottomans. In 1831 the Land of Israel was conquered and occupied for nine years by an Egyptian force led by Mohammed Ali and his son Ibrahim Pasha. They cast off the yoke of their former Turkish superiors and seized control of Egypt, Palestine and most of Syria. The country's new Egyptian rulers issued a series of reforms, which left a lasting impact on legal and political affairs, even after the Turks returned to power nine years later. These reforms I included: 1) Legal rights were extended to non-Moslems - until then they had been second class citizens and were even required to pay a special, 'humiliating' head tax: 2) The regional administration was reorganized and more direct control by the central government was instituted: 3) A municipal advisory council (majlis) was established - the first buds of local government: 4) Law and order were enforced, including maintaining security on the roads - a factor which made Jerusalem and the rest of the country much safer and more accessible to foreign visitors at a time the country's were trying to Western European favor.
In 1840 the Ottoman Turks succeeded in driving the Egyptians from the country, with the aid of several European powers, and reinstituted their rule. They did not, however turn back the clock. The returning Turks continued these reforms through a policy known as the Tanzimat, which included a major reorganization of regional administration and a more liberal approach to non-Moslem subjects and foreign representatives/citizens. The administrative reforms sought, among other things, to enhance the involvement of the central government in local affairs. This came at the expense of local and regional governors, but was meant to decrease corruption by establishing more centralized supervision. The liberalized approach to foreigners and non Moslems came at a time of increased Jewish immigration to Jerusalem (both from within the country and from abroad) as well as intensified 'Great Power'/Christian activity, especially by diplomats and missionaries.
Consulates and CapitulationsAn important result of the new political reforms was granting permission to foreign countries to establish consulates in Jerusalem. The first consulates were established by Great Britain, Prussia and France. They were soon followed by others of the 'Great' and not so great powers of the day, including Austria, Russia, the U.S.A., Greece, Norway, Persia and Sardinia. These consulates enjoyed special rights, known as capitulations, which exempted both the consuls and their citizens from local Turkish legal jurisdiction. These capitulations became a very significant factor in local society as various foreign diplomats sought to extend their protection over local religious minorities.
The capitulations gave Jerusalem's various foreign consuls political power at a time when the power of the city's Turkish governor had declined as a result of greater central government involvement in local affairs. Often foreign consuls resided in Jerusalem for lengthy periods while the city's Ottoman governors changed constantly. This produced the paradoxical situation that various European consuls frequently knew the city better than its Turkish overlords. The British consul James Finn lived in Jerusalem for 16 years! He established an extensive network of connections throughout the city and initiated various relief projects on behalf of the Jewish community, with whom he felt a special affinity.
Baladiyat El QudsJerusalem (perhaps because it attracted so much European attention) was the site of another important reform in Ottoman administration - local government. In 1863 Jerusalem became the second city in the Ottoman Empire to be incorporated as a municipality. (The first was Istanbul). It had a Moslem mayor and councilors who were appointed to represent the various religious communities, including separate Ashkenazic and Sephardic representatives. Local elections weren't held until 1909, but the fledgling municipality conducted an active program of public works and its establishment predated the Ottoman Municipalities Law by 14 years.
It should be noted that the reforms primarily benefited the Jewish and Christian communities, but specifically not the Moslems, who lacked foreign diplomatic or philanthropic assistance at this period. The granting of rights to non-Moslems decreased the legal authority and income of Moslem clerics, who formally benefited from special taxes imposed on the various Jewish and Christian communities.
Jewish Population GrowthThe Jewish community of Jerusalem grew rapidly during the 19th century as a result of immigration from both with in the Land of Israel and abroad. During the first three decades of the 19th century Jerusalem's Jewish community grew steadily from 2000 to 3000 (1837). Most of the city's Jewish population was Sephardic, but at this time Jerusalem's Ashkenazic community was reestablished, initially by prushim (alternately mitnagdim - opponents of Hasidism), most of whom arrived from Eastern Europe via Safed.
In 1837 the cities of Safed and Tiberias (the two largest Jewish communities in the Land of Israel) were destroyed by an earthquake and some of their residents sought refuge in Jerusalem. By 1840 the city's Jewish population reached 5000. The flow of immigrants increased in the 1840's as a result of improvements in overland transportation in Europe and sea travel on the Mediterranean (railroads and steamships).
The Birth of the New CityThe sharp rise in Jerusalem's Jewish population, together with the fact that most of its Jewish residents were poor produced a major housing crisis. Over-crowding was rampant, together with its by-products, such as poor sanitary conditions, epidemics, etc. The Jewish Quarter was particularly squalid and Jews who sought refuge in other parts of the city paid exorbitant rents to non-Jewish landlords. The Rothschild family attempted to alleviate the harsh conditions of their coreligionists by erecting a set of apartments known as the Batei Hamahse in the 1850's, but this provided only a partial, temporary solution.
At this time Sir Moses Montefiore, a son-in-law of the Rothschilds, visited the city. Montefiore, wealthy in his own right, was troubled by the plight of Jerusalem's Jewry. He attempted to acquire more housing for Jews, but to no avail. Instead he encountered a curious offer from Jerusalem's Turkish governor - a plot of land on an open, airy hillside, west of the city across the Hinnom Valley. In 1857 Montefiore imported a windmill from Canterbury, England and erected it on this plot of land in order to provide Jerusalem's poor Jews with a cheap source of flour.
Progress on alleviating Jerusalem's housing crisis came three years later when Montefiore, with funds from the estate of a wealthy American Jew from New Orleans, named Judah Touro, established, near the windmill, the first residential neighborhood outside the city walls - Mishkenot She'ananim. The new neighborhood consisted of one long, single story building with 19 apartments. The apartments were offered to the city's poor Jews as a healthy alternative to the squalid conditions inside the city, but at first their few takers, because people feared living outside the Jerusalem's high, 'protecting' walls where they were likely to be prey to bandits or wild animals. According to some sources, Monefiore, determined to populate the new dwellings went so far as to pay people to live in his newly-built apartments. The idea of living outside the city walls didn't catch on for another four years. In 1864 Jerusalem was struck by a cholera epidemic the Jewish Quarter suffered particularly harsh consequences. At this time Jerusalemites took note that across the Hinnom Valley, in clean, airy Mishkenot She'ananim the epidemic hadn't struck. This heightened interest in housing beyond the city walls and Montefiore responded by adding another building nearby.
In 1867 the leader of Jerusalem's Moroccan Jewish community, Rabbi David Ben Shimon, founded the second neighborhood outside the city walls - Mahane Yisrael - for the poor of his community. Mahane Yisrael was built around an open courtyard. All the entrances to the apartments opened in to the courtyard, so that the outer walls of the building could function as 'fortifications'. The courtyard itself had only one gate which could be locked from the inside. The neighborhood's water cisterns and baking ovens were also located in this courtyard.
The third residential neighborhood built outside the city walls - Nahalat Shiva - stands out for its style of organization. This neighborhood was founded in 1869 as a cooperative effort by seven Jerusalem families. They pooled their funds together in order to purchase the land and build the first houses. The land was owned by a local Arab who despised Jews. In order to buy the land, the founders of Nahalat Shiva, sent one of their daughters, disguised as an Arab woman to purchase the field and then register it in the Ottoman land office. The cost of purchasing the land left sufficient funds to build only one house. Lots were cast and the winner Rabbi Yosef Rivlin, built the first house in the neighborhood, along Jaffa Road in downtown Jerusalem of today.
These first three Jewish residential neighborhoods represent three separate style in neighborhood building/organization. Mishkenot She'ananim was founded by a wealthy philanthropist for the benefit of poor Jews; Mahane Yisrael was ethnically specific; Nahalat Shiva constituted a communal effort on the part of its members. These patterns would repeat themselves in the establishment of other neighborhoods: The fourth neighborhood (1870) outside the city walls - Beit David - was 'philanthropic'; Meah Shearim (1873), the fifth neighborhood of the 'New City' was 'communal'. These first five neighborhoods may be connected in an arch, which stretches west and northwest of the city. None of them were built adjacent to the city walls as might be expected in the case of normal urban sprawl, but all maintained a clear line of vision with the city walls. This was no doubt strongly influenced by the availability of land, but also reflects a desire to move out of the walled city, while still being connected to Jerusalem as a large population center, a Jewish community and a holy city. The next stage in Jewish neighborhood development extended west along the Jaffa Road. It included the neighborhoods Even Yisrael, Mishkenot Yisrael, Succat Shalom and other neighborhoods in the vicinity. Here we find a clear effort to build adjacent neighborhoods on or near the main road (Jaffa Road) leading to the west (coastal sea port of Jaffa), the direction which both Jerusalem and the rest of the country were facing with increasing interest.
'Great Power' and Foreign Christian Activity in 19th Century JerusalemChristian Europe rediscovered Jerusalem in the 19th century. French cartographers, who crossed Palestine with Napoleon in 1799, made the first 'scientific' map of the Land of Israel - the Jacotin Map. This marked the beginning of nearly two centuries of intensive exploration of the Land of Israel. The budding sciences of archeology, geography and anthropology made there first in roads in Jerusalem at this time. 19th century explorations of Jerusalem produced a wealth of information and literature, which did much to arouse western interest in the city. The explorers came motivated by religion, intellectual curiosity and romantic imagination. They worked under difficult, primitive conditions, but still managed to make lasting contributions to modern scholarship, and more than a few major errors. The names of several sites in Jerusalem still bear testimony to these early explorers, i.e. Wilson's Arch, Warren's Shaft, Barclay's Gate and Robinson's Arch.
The 1840's witnessed a sharp upsurge of Christian religious activity in Jerusalem: For the first time a Protestant bishop (initially a 'Joint Anglican-Lutheran bishop) was appointed in Jerusalem; the first Protestant church - Christ Church was built at this time; The Latin Patriarch resumed residence in Jerusalem as did the Greek Orthodox Patriarch, both after protracted absences. The Anglicans engaged in missionary activity aimed at converting Jews to Christianity. In order to advance this goal they established schools and a hospital. This spurred Jewish philanthrop

I have met recently some of my old friends and heard their interesting experiences about UFOs and ETs. Most of the ETs are helping now humanity, but there are also some still trying to control and absorb energy from us. One woman friend have had couple of years now constant visitations by aliens. Some of them seem to be friendly, who disappear when she turns away for a while in order to get them to leave as she doesn't want to talk or get involved with them. Some are more ugly looking and she has more difficulties to get rid of these nasty ones.
When she told about this to me, I told her about regressive hypnotist Calogero Grifasi. My friend found many similarities to those experiences by Calogero's cases, like seeing mostly only the faces of aliens, sometimes also bodies, shifting to different form, strange feelings in her own body and falling asleep with collapsing feeling.
Calogero knows how to deal with nasty reptilians, insectoids and spirits commonly. He advices the victims just to order the aliens to go away and to take their (dimentional) implants with them, which they have often planted on the victims. Sometimes he shows to reptilians how to go to the light and absorb energy from there that they don't need to take it from humans. Other psychics also say they have to leave if you say so. I just advised my friend to order the nasties to go away from disturbing her, and take their possessions with them. So far I have not heard how she is doing now.
Here one recent example of Calogero's videos with short description if you are not able to watch it; Confused professor Roberto requests help from hypnotist Calogero, as he has difficulties with his teaching job. Roberto has suspicion that his contact ETs have something to do with his problems. Calogero finds out that in two cases those ETs have taken samples and set implants into his body. Calogero asks Roberto to demand those ETs to remove the implants.
Calogero also tries to find out if the third contact case was for real; that the ET Amora was helping Roberto, or was this ET also just taking energy from him. Often ETs just pretend to be helpers. Seems Amora is for real and has been helping Roberto with meditation and book writing. 1203_EN_ Roberto, UFO sighting/abduction – Regressive hypnosis Calogero Grifasi; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDK1c-QEJZU.

Another of my friends, almost 80 years old, told me that when she was in S-Korea her high official father was involved with UFO briefing organized by American military. He arranged permission for his daughter to attend as well. They were showing videos about UFOs flying and landing. Besides they had an exhibition about pictures of ETs, and materials found belonging to them. She has already forgotten some details about it, as this happened in seventies or eighties. ………………..
On 13 th August one UFO appeared near our house on the sky. I didn't see it, but my neighbor took video clip about it from long distance, which shows the tiny UFO flashing red light and then suddenly disappairing. Sometimes they appear to others instead of the one summoning them – as I was doing – may be that was the case!!! I got the video from the neighbor, but I didn't manage to embed it here.

RECENT MESSAGES FROM TALKING AND WALKING ETS, use your discernment!
Arcturian ET Walking and Channeling; Yahuel ETs are working on the first contact, Russia is considered the place, but not sure. Positive Reptilians are now in contact to Hollywood, with positive influence. Hillary is in bad shape with her health, but no problem they will just put her clone to do the job. Economics going up and down. More attacks now on light workers as the evils are doing all what they can to try to stop advancing disclosure. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFvEqArG6ck
ETs about Mass arrest, Global political situation briefly (he states that you make the final decisions, so nobody can tell the future for sure); Elites fighting each other. Russia in best position. America not in good shape, but alien influence uplifting. Global mess. N and S Korea peace making efforts.
Mass arrest of cabal -theory was for money making. May be in January, but those on very top will not get arrested, so possible open socialist dictatorship will follow. If the shadow people would be removed totally, then only socialist system and world government could be positive.
In Australia cabal already on run. Gun's take-away in US, possible if major financial nod down happens, but we don't see that soon. No economic unrest in China. In Europe people are more awakened.
After mass arrest financial currency reset, but they have couple other plans too. Asset based financial system back, with gold and silver. Financial level down throughout the planet. Hyperinflation, but welfare systems will increase. Full financial reset may take 20 years. US will pay back to East.
More community, bartering in the future. Prosperity funds, debt wipe outs, stock market removal, new technologies. Better clean agriculture. More people join spiritual community, egoistic people also. Love each other, no secrets amongst each other. Exopolitics to be cleaned up, esp MUFON misleading. See more (language confusing for me), https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DiTK1S2rT3A
A bit advices from other ETs; Don't worry about financial situation, in next couple of months changes in political system. There are starting to come more alien music and songs, positive reptilians are working on it. Be positive, send love and light to your enemies. Meditation makes more positive. Connect to nature, try to help mother earth.
Hank Jones, QHHT, ET source; Those who are born now are reincarnating back with full memory who they are, where they are going etc. Twin flames means they were created at same time, and soul mates decided to come as a group to work here. Those with Rh negative blood have problems with reproduction, because Anunnaki did genetic experiments and caused some uncontrolled mutations. Royal bloodline in UK was created by reptilians manipulating DNA.
Ghosts are people who have died, and stay on earth plane. They are not often able to control their energy and seem to be aggressive, but there is nothing evil on them. When we ascend we will be living longer and become mediums. We can heal our bodies, but oxygen makes old eventually.
They have not managed to reduce human population, but keep us in lower vibration. We should suggest how to deal with chemtrails, vaccinations etc to others; See more interesting things; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6x4fC_ndTyE.
Many, many lightning like orbs often show up in Hank's videos. ETs want to prove that they are present

About Us
The Division of Cardiothoracic Surgery, led by Dr. Joseph S. Coselli, builds on the rich legacy of surgical innovators — Drs. Michael E. DeBakey, Denton A. Cooley, E. Stanley Crawford, and George P. Noon among others — who originated many of the 20th century's ground-breaking aortic and cardiac surgical procedures. Today, Dr. Coselli, credited with nearly 10,000 aortic repairs, including over 3,500 of the thoracoabdominal aorta, leads a world-renowned team of over 15 surgeons and researchers innovating strategies for the evaluation and treatment of diseases of the aorta and cardiovascular system.
The Division of Cardiothoracic Surgery offers both a Thoracic Surgery Residency and an Aortic Surgery Fellowship.
Our three-year cardiothoracic surgery residency program, accepting four residents per year, is the largest in the United States. Buoyed by a new general thoracic track program, the application pool for our residency program under the direction of Dr. Coselli and Dr. Ravi K. Ghanta, has been the strongest in recent memory.
Learn about our cardiovascular research.
The cardiac surgery research team pursues several research projects and maintains one of the world's most extensive and well-cataloged aortic tissue banks. This core resource facilitates investigations into the causes and progression of aortic disease pursued by our researchers, as well as researchers from other academic institutions.
A growing portfolio of clinical and translational research efforts in the division, led by NIH-funded Vice-Chair for Research Dr. Scott A. LeMaire, includes more than 20 clinical studies in areas ranging from the genetics and molecular biology of aortic disease to applications of new heart valves and aortic grafts. Laboratory studies also include the NIH-funded investigations of department chair Dr. Todd K. Rosengart, whose research group is developing a means to use cellular reprogramming to convert cardiac scar tissue into new heart muscle.
Learn about our adult cardiac and aortic surgical services.
Dr. Joseph Coselli and his team at Baylor College of Medicine and the Texas Heart Institute have pioneered new approaches to treat aortic disease, including novel percutaneous endovascular repair procedures utilized at Baylor St. Luke's Medical Center to treat high-risk patients.
At the Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center, our surgeons perform over 300 open-heart surgeries and more than 100 lung and esophageal procedures annually, making it the busiest VA cardiac center in the United States. The MEDVAMC offers many unique surgical possibilities for cardiac surgery patients, including one of the few percutaneous valve options in the VA system.
At Ben Taub Hospital, thoracic and trauma surgeon Kenneth L. Mattox, M.D., chief of staff, and Matthew J. Wall, Jr., M.D., deputy chief of surgery and chief of cardiothoracic surgery, lead one of the busiest cardiac surgery programs at a municipal hospital in the nation. The surgical volume has doubled over the past four years at Ben Taub, and acute coronary syndrome treatment outcomes have topped national standards.

To know where modern biological science began, take a look at the incredible and extremely well-preserved collection within Alfred Russel Wallace's personal cabinet, as showcased in this video by the National Science Foundation:
Discovered by a Washington, D.C., lawyer in search of antique furniture, this is truly a Cabinet of Wonders, for inside is the 1700-specimen personal collection of 19th Century British naturalist, field biologist and contemporary of Charles Darwin, Alfred Russel Wallace.
From the Washington Post:
There are butterflies and beetles, moths and shells. There's a small bird. Flies. Bees. Praying mantises. Tarantulas. Seedpods. A hornet's nest… "I think it's a fabulous thing," said David Grimaldi, curator of invertebrate zoology at the American Museum of Natural History in New York. "I think it's a national treasure, actually."

West Papua and International developments: 2016 in Review
January 16, 2017
ULMWP's Melanesian Spearhead Group membership campaign progress
The United Liberation Movement for West Papua (ULMWP), formed in December 2014 to unite the Papuan independence movement, has continued its campaign to gain full membership of a sub-regional organisation in the Pacific, the Melanesian Spearhead Group. In June 2015, the MSG granted the ULMWP observer status and granted Indonesia associate membership.
The bid for full membership is supported by Vanuatu, the Solomon Islands and New Caledonia's Front de Liberation Nationale Kanak et Socialiste (FNLKS). Papua New Guinea and Fiji, both influenced by Indonesia's 'chequebook diplomacy', continue to oppose the ULMWP's request.
In June 2016, the MSG deferred its decision on the ULMWP's full bid until a later meeting in December, in order to better clarify its criteria for membership. In the interim, the head of the MSG declared that, if Vanuatu, the FNLKS and Solomon Islands attend the December meeting, the ULMWP would be granted full membership. However, whilst the meeting was initially intended for member heads of state, it was altered to a meeting of foreign ministers. Those gathered heard the ULMWP's case for full membership, but the decision was once again deferred until a later MSG leaders' meeting. The diplomatic struggle in the Pacific continues.
The Saralana Declaration, the key document in the formation of the ULMWP, and further information, can be found at ulmwp.org.
Announcement of the Pacific Coalition on West Papua
In August, the first meeting of the Pacific Coalition on West Papua was held at the fringes of a World Conservation Congress in Honolulu, Hawaii. The Coalition is an initiative of Prime Minister of the Solomon Islands, Manasseh Sogavare, who is chair of the MSG. The Coalition includes the Solomon Islands, the Republic of Vanuatu, FLNKS the ULMWP, Tuvalu and Nauru. Representatives from the Marshall Islands and Tonga attended the first meeting.
The group coordinated unprecedented international focus on West Papua during September's UN General Assembly meeting, with representatives from members of the group voicing concerns over human rights and self-determination issues in West Papua.
Appointment of Wiranto as security chief
General Wiranto, implicated by the UN in mass atrocities in East Timor in 1999, was appointed Coordinating Minister for Politics, Law, and Security Affairs. The role overseas five ministries, including the ministry of interior, foreign ministry, and defence ministry. This makes him the most powerful security figure in the country.
Amnesty International raised serious concerns about the appointment, commenting:
"This is adding insult to injury. A day after ordering a fresh round of executions, President Widodo has now decided to hand control of the country's security apparatus to someone was indicted for crimes against humanity by a UN sponsored tribunal."
Launch of the Westminster Declaration, May 3
On May 3, 2016, one of the largest diplomatic gatherings for West Papua in history took place at Westminster. The Westminster Declaration was launched, along with the University of Warwick Politics of Papua Project's Assessment Report on West Papua (see below), and British Leader of the Opposition, Jeremy Corbyn, called for human rights to be respected in Papua and for a referendum on independence to be held. Diplomatic officials, ministers and heads of state from across the Pacific attended the meeting, including Prime Minister Samuela 'Akilisi Pohiva on Tonga and Ralph Regenvanu, Vanuatu's Minister of Lands & Natural Resources.
Swim for West Papua
The Westminster Declaration will be supported by a grassroots worldwide petition in support of its principles and text, run by the 'Swim for West Papua' team. This petition will be swum across Lake Geneva in August 2017 by a team of swimmers from the UK, under a 'Swim for West Papua' banner. They will be working closely with the Free West Papua Campaign.
Politics of Papua Project
The Politics of Papua Project, at the University of Warwick, launched its first Assessment Report on the situation in West Papua. The report is a comprehensive overview of the politics, human rights, development and historical developments concerning West Papua, and issues a series of recommendations to policy makers and parliamentarians. The Project launched a 12-page executive policy briefing with the University of Oxford's Foundation for Law, Justice and Society later in the year.
Australia & Indonesia ties
In October, Indonesia asked Australia to caution its Pacific Island neighbours against interfering in the West Papua issue. Indonesian Defence Minister Ryamizard Ryacudu request to Australia's defence and foreign ministers, during their annual meeting in Bali, to withdraw support for West Papuan membership of the Melanesian Spearhead Group (MSG), warning that the issue could pose a 'stumbling block' to closer bilateral ties. Australian-Indonesian military ties were later temporarily suspended over Australian training material which allegedly commented on the illegitimacy of Indonesian rule in Papua. The issue sparked renewed discussion of Indonesian rule in West Papua.
Media access
An extensive report from Human Rights Watch has highlighted the continuing restrictions on media access to West Papua, and the network of surveillance, informants and oppression that keeps media reporting in check. The report debunks claims from parts of the new Jokowi regime, which has claimed that restrictions are being lifted.
Journalists working in West Papua also continue to face coercion and surveillance and feel they must "routinely self-censor to avoid reprisals for their reporting." The Indonesian security forces also pay journalists to act as informers and deploy agents to work undercover as Indonesian journalists. The restrictions can become a matter of life and death: "In recent years, several Papuan journalists have died violently in circumstances that raise questions about possible complicity by economic interests threatened by their reporting, security forces, or some combination of both."
BP operations expansion
BP, the huge British oil company, is one of the largest foreign investors in Indonesia. The company operates six huge liquefied natural gas fields in Tangguh, the north-western area of West Papua. This is one of the largest development projects in West Papua, and BP is the largest off-shore oil and gas producer in the whole of Indonesia. Since 2013, the field has been providing increasing amounts of gas to the rest of the Indonesian archipelago, further entangling Jakarta with West Papua and increasing Indonesian reliance upon Papuan resources.
In September the Indonesian government approved plans for new facilities to expand the production of gas by around 50%, opening in 2020. 75% of the gas will go to domestic Indonesian markets, some of it solely dedicated to electrifying West Papua. Concerns have long been raised that little of the development goes towards Papuan needs, and reinforces Indonesian rule in West Papua.

Did you know that The Honolulu Zoo is the only zoo in the United States that originated in a King's grant of royal lands to the people?
The area that we now as Kapiʻolani Park, was once a 300 acre parcel of land made up of old fish ponds, lagoons, and marshes. In 1876, King David Kalākaua declared the land to be available "to the people of Hawaiʻi". The land was cleared out and in 1877 officially opened as Queen Kapiʻolani Park to honor Julia Kapiolani, Queen consort of David Kalākaua.
It was then used as a housing area for the King and Queen's private bird collection and it wasn't until 1914 that the City of Honolulu assumed responsibility for the park and began collecting animals from around the world.
The first park director, Ben Hollinger, began with a bear, a monkey, and an African elephant "for the children of Hawaiʻi" to view and enjoy. However, it wasn't until 1947 under the direction of Paul Bresse that 42.5 acres of the park was designated as The Honolulu Zoo.
Nowadays, the mission of The Honolulu Zoo is to "inspire stewardship of our living world by providing meaningful experiences to our guests" and to remain a place of natural beauty and ornamental landscape for the benefit of Hawaiʻi.

Sunday morning <3 (9/12)
Lovely Sunday morning. My view is so amazing from my room, very tranquil, quiet, and peaceful. Got a little more homework to do before school tomorrow so today hana and I are just going to stay in for the day and go grocerie shopping later in the afternoon. Maybe go for a walk around the neighborhood, depends on how much I get done. Later this past week the last student in my program, sean, finally arrived in paris. Hana and I were really lucky because we had about a week and a half to kind of get to know the city before we started school. Sean however just got here so we took him around yesterday to get a little lunch and walk around the city :D
Hana and I are going to make a delicious home made dinner tonight. Ill make sure to update what our creation ends up being. Both of us can eat so we keep coming up with all of these ideas haha.

Whooping Up Friday
I'm joining Sarah with Whoop, Whoop Friday. I showed these stars all over the house and managed to wrestle them into their center formation. Not an easy task all week as it seems for the last 2 weeks every one near and far in our family has been ill (including me) with either the flu or one of the several viruses going around right now. I have been chauffeur for a few to the hospital or doctors - and would have rather been napping on the couch.
Then I managed one border - then another day, another border...... I hate borders............
And then I talked myself into putting that third border on today. I wanted this done and fabrics picked up. I would have loved to take a full shot of this, but we went from a glorious, warm day into a horrid storm (tornado warnings) - and at 84" square I have no where in the house to hang it for a photo. This quilt will go into the tote for a finish in 2016.
This weekend will have very little sewing as we are rearranging (and cleaning) the shop for Christmas sales. Maybe I will get to some of those melon blocks for some slow stitching.
Sewingly Yours,

Star blocks are my favorite. I love that you have two different sizes of blocks. I hope when you can you show us a picture of the whole quilt because it is georgeous. Take care of yourself and get better.ReplyDelete
Wonderful arrangement for all the scrappy stars. And for going with the scrappy mixed borders.....getting it to this stage is always a plus.ReplyDelete
That looks wonderful and I am sure the borders will add to it.ReplyDelete
Take care of yourself too, Sharon!!!
it turned out beautifully! I am not usually a big fan of stars, but I like all the different sizes and styles in this one. Might have to add them to my list of something to try one day !ReplyDelete
I love the stars, they look great. Hope the rearranging and cleaning goes well and that you get a little sewing time .ReplyDelete
This quilt looks so wonderful with all the different fabrics in the stars. Looks great.ReplyDelete

Wow this looks fantastic Sharon,hope the cleaning and tidying goes well today xxReplyDelete
I sure hope everyone starts feeling better soon! I also hope the weather calms down. We had quite a wind storm on Thursday, I was sure we would lose power, but didn't. I love your Star top, especially the different sizes of stars. It is beautiful!ReplyDelete
Oh Sharon, that is wonderful!! I love how you made all the different size stars play nicely together! Hope you feel much better soon! Whoop whoop!!ReplyDelete
It's so gorgeous. Sure hope you are feeling better. Mick has been under the weather ever since he got his flue shot. He's totally convinced it was the shot...:)ReplyDelete
So sorry the germies have been around lately but the quilt top is lovely.ReplyDelete
Very fun stars. Congrats on getting all the borders on, that's my least favorite step too. Hope everyone gets and stays healthy for a while.ReplyDelete
Sometimes I forego the borders, because it's so much my least favorite part. LOL! So, kudos to you for persevering!! And you definitely deserved to whoop, whoop it up!! Hoping the 'bugs' stay away for the rest of the season and you stay healthy! :)ReplyDelete
Tis the season for the colds and flus... hope you all are feeling much better this week.ReplyDelete

Within the SLIPO project, we have to deal with large volumes of structured Point of Interest (POI) data. One of the frameworks, we use and extend for this purpose is SANSA. SANSA combines distributed computing frameworks (specifically Spark and Flink) with the semantic technology stack. Here is an illustration:
Figure 1: The SANSA vision combines distributed analytics (left) and semantic technologies (right) into a scalable semantic analytics stack (top). The colours encode what part of the two original stacks influence which part of the SANSA stack. The main objective of SANSA is to investigate whether the characteristics of each technology stack (bottom) can be combined to retain the respective advantages.
The combination of distributed computing and semantic technologies allows the exploitation of solutions and advantages from both fields. In particular, SANSA inherits the following advantages from the semantic technology stack:
- a) Powerful Data Integration: Current analytics pipelines need to be able to handle increasing data variety and complexity. Moving from common short term, ad hoc solutions that require a lot of engineering effort, to standardised and well-understood semantic technology approaches had and will have significant impact.
- b) Expressive Modelling: The vast majority of machine learning algorithms rely on simple input formats, such as feature vectors, rather than being able to use expressive modelling via the Resource Description Framework (RDF) and the Web Ontology Language (OWL). While this has been researched in fields such as Statistical Relational Learning and Inductive Logic Programming, these methods usually do not scale horizontally. Initial work on horizontally scalable machine learning on structured data has been performed, particularly in terms of adding graph processing capabilities to distributed computing frameworks, but those are not aimed at semantic technologies and currently provide limited capabilities.
- c) Standards: The usage of W3C standards can generally reduce pre-processing time in those cases when data sources are used for more than one analytics task. This is the case for knowledge graphs, which are often combined with several applications including search, information retrieval, advanced querying and filtering of information, as well as visualisation. Beyond this, the standardisation allows to draw on generic approaches, e.g. for querying and merging data, rather than developing ad hoc solutions, which are less reusable and often less efficient and effective. The use of standards will also enable a clearer separation of the data pre-processing step, i.e. RDF modelling, and the actual analytics step. This allows experts in either step to focus efforts on their actual job and hence to increase the overall efficiency.
SANSA inherits the following advantages from machine learning research and distributed computing:
- d) Measurable Benefits: A key driver for the success of machine learning is that its benefits are often directly measurable, e.g. an accuracy improvement can often be directly translated into a financial benefit. This is not really the case for semantic technologies where the benefits gained through the effort of modelling, editing and extracting knowledge are often not easily measurable. A seamless integration of semantic technologies and machine learning, as envisioned in SANSA, will also help to make the benefits of semantic technologies more visible, as they will translate to machine learning results which are more accurate and easier to understand.
- e) Horizontal Scalability: Distributed in-memory computing can provide the horizontal scalability required by the high computation and storage demands of large-scale semantic knowledge graphs analytics. However, it does not magically result in higher scalability and requires a deep understanding of the underlying structures and models. For instance, distributed machine learning for expressive logics and the inclusion of inference in knowledge graph embedding models are challenging problems with many open research questions.
Recently, we released SANSA 0.2 as a preparation for analysis tasks in SLIPO. With this release, the following features are currently supported:
- Reading and writing RDF files in N-Triples format
- Reading OWL files in various standard formats
- Querying and partitioning based on Sparqlify
- RDFS/RDFS Simple/OWL-Horst forward chaining inference
- RDF graph clustering with different algorithms
- Rule mining from RDF graphs
- Deployment and getting started:
- There are template projects for SBT and Maven for Apache Spark as well as for Apache Flink available to get started.
- The SANSA jar files are in Maven Central i.e. in most IDEs you can just search for "sansa" to include the dependencies in Maven projects.
- There is example code for various tasks available.
- We provide interactive notebooks for running and testing code via Docker.GitHub: https://github.com/SANSA-StackTwitter: https://twitter.com/SANSA_Stack(Sources: http://sansa-stack.net/faq/#what-is-the-idea-behind-SANSA, http://sda.cs.uni-bonn.de/sansa-0-2/ )

Nike x Off-White Pop-Up in Shanghai
A few weeks ago saw the release of the seriously popular Off-White x Nike VaporMax "Black" through both Shelflife stores. Hundreds upon hundreds of people entered in the hopes of securing a pair of Virgil's coveted Nike collab.
In Shanghai, there was a slightly more tranquil experience at the Nike x Off-White interactive pop-up during Shanghai fashion week. The pop-up displayed a contemporary take on old Chinese fabric shops. Inside, attendees could eat traditional cake, as well as customise cotton or silk Nike tote bags with Chinese patchworks, calligraphy pens and Imperial jade seals. Those raffle ticket holders lucky enough to win a pair were also awarded with mung bean cake and a special NikeLab Chinese teacup.
Continuing the white theme from Shanghai, this Saturday the 14thof April sees the release of the white counterpart to Virgil's black VaporMax. Things are looking to be even bigger than the last with this ultra-hyped release.
You can enter the Shelflife online raffle here or come down to either Shelflife store to be a part of the live raffle this coming Saturday.

Serenity – teeming with life!
The Thuringian forest – between serenity and pulsating life, action and rest.
Forest and moors, brooks and meadows, living and experiencing, regional and global
The abstract, cubic exhibition design consciously offers a counterpoint to nature, untouched and wild, in the biosphere reserve. The Thuringian forest, in all its lively diversity, is characterized by one thing above all: serenity! Visitors can experience this serenity in three walk-in cubes, and in very different ways – each on one of three topics: Forest and Moors, Brooks and Meadows, and Living and Experiencing. Surprising and fascinating changes of perspective by zooming in on tiny worlds, looking from a distance, and the use of extreme slow motion and time-lapse images turn this exhibition into an unforgettable experience. Visitors take time out, immerse themselves in the multimedia installations and get in touch with what has touched them: the value of serenity. The special features of this unique biosphere reserve make lasting memories.
Outside the cubes, there is much to explore, play with and learn at over 15 interpretive stations. Visitors big and small find out more about the region's people, about habitats, leisure activities and current projects at the biosphere reserve in an interactive fashion. As fire engine red cubes, the stations designed for children stand out from the rest.
On a walkable world map, multimedia information regarding global projects in other UNESCO biosphere reserves can be activated by light sensor. The photoelectric signal triggers a video display on the associated screen.
At the entrance, an interactive model of the landscape offers comprehensive information about the biosphere reserve. The Learning Lab on the first floor offers pedagogical and didactic activities.

The recent prosecution of a fire risk assessor illustrates how important it is to check that a contractor is suitably qualified to undertake a fire risk assessment on your premises.
In this instance, a fire risk assessor has been found guilty of failing to provide an adequate risk assessment to a large restaurant. The sole trader was prosecuted by Devon & Somerset Fire & Rescue Service under Sections 9 and 17 of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
The sole trader pleaded guilty at the Magistrates Court, and was ordered to pay £7,383 in fines and costs.
The risk assessment that the risk assessor had been employed to undertake was found to be unsuitable. It did not make any provision for the sleeping risk, the inadequate means of escape, the lack of fire doors, an inadequate fire alarm system, and the inadequate fire fighting equipment on premises.
Furthermore, the sole trader serviced the fire-fighting equipment that was there, when he was neither qualified or trained to do so, plus failed to service the equipment to any appropriate standard.
This was seen by the court as a failure in his duty to undertake the work to an appropriate standard, which placed people using the premises at the risk of death or serious injury in the event of a fire.
It is your duty to check the credentials of any Fire Risk Assessor before you contract them to undertake any work. To find an accredited fire risk assessor, visit the website of Institution of Fire Engineers (IFE) or the Institute of Fire Prevention Officers (IFPO).

At last, at last at last. I've always been teasing my American friends why they wish sex on me ( "Fuck you!") if they wish me bad. This is a great and in-depth article about swearing.
(…) As secularization has rendered religious swear words less powerful, creative speakers have replaced them with words that have the same degree of affective clout according to the sensibilities of the day. This explains why taboo expressions can have such baffling syntax and semantics. To take just one example, why do people use the ungrammatical Fuck you? And why does no one have a clear sense of what, exactly, Fuck you means? (Some people guess "fuck yourself," others "get fucked," and still others "I will fuck you," but none of these hunches is compelling.) The most likely explanation is that these grammatically baffling curses originated in more intelligible religious curses during the transition from religious to sexual and scatological swearing in English-speaking countries:
Who (in) the hell are you? >> Who the fuck are you?
I don't give a damn >> I don't give a fuck; I don't give a shit.
Holy Mary! >> Holy shit! Holy fuck!
For God's sake >> For fuck's sake; For shit's sake.
Of course, this transmutation raises the question of why words for these particular concepts stepped into the breach–why, for example, words for bodily effluvia and their orifices and acts of excretion became taboo. Shit, piss, and asshole, to name but a few, are still unspeakable on network television and unprintable in most newspapers. The New York Times, for example, identified a best-seller by the philosopher Harry Frankfurt as On Bull****. (…)

Here's the beginnings of a Christmas story I'm working on. It is as yet untitled.
Dozens of little bodies lay broken on the floor.
She wasn't aware of what she had done as her attention was riveted to the television screen, where only moments before the Yule Log had been burning brightly and the sound of Bing Crosby dreaming of a white Christmas drifted from the speakers. Never in all her years, of which there were many, had the Yule Log broadcast been interrupted by a newscaster claiming to have breaking news. Until now, that is.
"We interrupt our regularly scheduled programming to bring you this Special Report." The Network logo that had appeared on the screen was replaced by the view of a newsroom and a rather handsome anchorman. "Christmas Eve," he said, obviously reading from a teleprompter, "and there's violence in the streets. Reports are pouring in from all across the country that unprovoked acts of violence have been breaking out, leaving behind a bloody trail of mass murder." Behind his blond head, a video screen came to life showing a real-time image of Times Square. It was pure chaos. Bodies and paper and plastic shopping bags littered the streets. Panic-stricken last-minute shoppers ran along the Avenue of the Americas, dodging slower-moving people who seemed to be disoriented and turning up side streets in an attempt to get away from. . .
It wasn't exactly clear what they were running from at first, but then she saw a woman who refused to give up the bags she had fought the masses for take a tumble, tripped up by her day's purchases. A shambling figure, obviously male, was on her in a heartbeat. At first, she thought the man was attempting to rape the woman he'd fallen on, but when he raised his head she could see the bloody wound at the woman's neck. Even from the distance, she could see the spray of blood as it coated the sidewalk. The news anchor continued.
"This scene, broadcast live from Times Square in New York City, is being repeated all across the country. There is no known cause for this sudden outbreak of violence. The extent of the violence is so wide spread that the President has declared a state of emergency and has called out the National Guard. People are being advised to stay indoors. Do not, under any circumstance, venture out doors. I repeat, under no circumstance should you go outside. We will keep you apprised of the situation as developments occur. We now return you to our regularly scheduled program."
The next instant, the Yule Log was burning merrily away again, a stark contrast to the mayhem and murder she had just witnessed, and for just one moment, she was too stunned to do anything but just stand there. Her complexion, normally joyfully ruddy, was pale. The shock of seeing a woman murdered on live television had drained the color from her rosy cheeks. Her hands started to tremble. She reached out for the counter to steady herself, trying to clear her head. Papa needed to know about this. It was too dangerous for him to venture out tonight. Wiping her hands on her apron, she hurried from the kitchen, crushing the broken bodies of the gingerbread men underfoot as she went.
Outside, the snow was starting to fall. It was a light fall, barely more than a flurry, with large flakes swirling gently around. Such was her hurry to inform Papa of the news, she forgot her shawl. Not that she needed it. She, like all of the others that lived and worked here, was immune to the freezing temperatures. The snow had been trampled by hundreds of tiny footprints, and here and there she could see evidence that the sleigh team had passed by the house. In the distance, through the veil of snow, she could see The Factory. The lights were on and smoke was billowing from the numerous chimneys. Even this close to departure time, it was still all a-bustle with activity. Whatever they didn't complete in time for this year could always be counted towards next year.
She scurried across the snow, driven by the fear of what she had witnessed. Papa had to know what was going on. She reached the door and pushed it open without a moment's hesitation. The sounds of Alvin and the Chipmunks singing All I Want for Christmas greeted her as she stepped inside, and she winced at the sound. Those little rodents always affected her like nails on a blackboard, but the elves worked best to any song by them, and on Christmas Eve, that particular song played all day long, and to add insult to injury, the elves always felt compelled to sing along. That was enough to drive anybody to commit suicide, but it wouldn't do her any good. Her blessing – or curse – once she married Papa and moved to this magical land was immortality. If she could die, she knew what her Hell would be. She only had to stay in The Factory for an hour on Christmas Eve to have a small taste of it.
She started to climb the stairs, hoping against hope that Papa hadn't started hitting the bottle yet because once Papa started drinking there was no talking him out of anything. If the children only knew the real reason for those rosy cheeks and that cherry-like nose, they'd be crestfallen.
There was still hours to go before his scheduled departure, but she kept her back to the wall as she made her way up the stairs to allow room for the elves as they made their way down the steps with sacks of toys to load into the sleigh. While not as big as Papa, her bulk was ample enough that if she wasn't courteous, the elves would have had to wait until she reached the top. She could have taken the elevator, but that would mean having to make her way across the floor, and this close to departure time, it was a madhouse. Making her way through a minefield would have been less hazardous than trying to get through the over-industrious elves.
At the top of the stairs, she pushed her way through the wave of diminutive bodies flowing towards her and felt like a salmon swimming upstream. Her destination was the source of the swarming elves, an open set of double doors that led onto a gallery that overlooked the work floor. Once through the doors, she looked around, immediately locating her husband. He stood at the railing, supervising the activities below. He seemed oblivious to the events going on behind him, but he, like mothers, seemed to have eyes in the back of his head. Nothing slipped by him. Dressed in a wife-beater t-shirt, his red pants with white ermine trim, and black boots, he never failed to take her breath away. He was as handsome today as the day she married him, and just for one moment she completely forgot the urgency that drove her from the house. His moustache, shoulder-length hair, and beard that fell to mid chest were as white as the snow that covered the northern landscape. The love she felt for him rekindled the fear and she hurried forward.
He turned at her approach, a "Ho, ho, ho," ready to greet her, but the expression on her face caused the laughter to dry up before it left his mouth. He crossed the floor and met her half way. "What is it, Mama?"
"You have to cancel Christmas, Papa. It's too dangerous."
This time the laughter did come out, deep belly laughs that really did make his belly shake like a bowl full of jelly. "Ho, ho, ho! Cancel Christmas? Not a chance."

The Roots Bring High-Energy Classics To Pre-Grammy Jam Session
John Legend, Mos Def, Jay Electronica, more join the hip-hop band onstage at their sixth annual event.
The Roots, the Roots, the Roots were on fire as they blasted through back-to-back classics, covers and mash-ups at their sixth annual Pre-Grammy Jam Session at Hollywood's Key Club. The Philadelphia crew was clearly having a blast as friends like John Legend, Mos Def and ex-keyboardist Scott Storch joined them onstage throughout a night that lasted well past 2 a.m.
Slash, Twista, David Banner, Ryan Phillippe and Kelsey Grammer were among the luminaries who skipped stuffier Grammy events around town to check out the star-studded-but-casual affair. Prince, Dave Chappelle, Snoop Dogg and even Tom Cruise have dropped by in the past, and the 2010 incarnation of the event, sponsored by Green Music Group, lived up to all prior expectations as the crowd danced the night away to the non-stop tunes.
Instantly recognizable drummer Amir "?uestlove" Thompson was the first to wander onto the stage as the rest of the group leisurely assembled around him to loud cheers. After a rousing warm-up number that saw Tariq "Black Thought" Trotter doing his best James Brown impression, the Roots kicked things up. "Here I Come," which the group has turned into the theme for "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon," was unexpectedly intense as sousaphonist Damon Bryson stomped alongside guitarist Kirk Douglas.
John Legend told the crowd he's been working on a record with the Roots scheduled for release this summer and then tore into a brand-new track slated for that release. He got behind a keyboard for Donny Hathaway's "Little Ghetto Boy" (famously sampled on Dr. Dre's The Chronic) and stayed there for the next song. Calling ?uestlove a musical encyclopedia, Legend described how they had been "digging in the crates" when they found the Vietnam War-inspired Bill Withers track "I Can't Write Left-Handed."
Before launching into the mournful song, Legend mentioned the "unjust wars" that have been fought since it was first recorded in 1972. The rendition of '60s soul number "Compared to What" (by Les McCann and Eddie Harris) was an even feistier follow-up.
The love in the room for Mos Def was evident as soon as he strode onstage in suspenders, sport coat, cap and Abe Lincoln beard, clutching an old-fashioned, fire-engine-red microphone and blazing rapidly through impressive wordplays with his trademark flow. His energy was palpable, shouting out Boogie Down Productions and of course the Roots as he traded and often shared verses with Black Thought. He stuck around and offered support to Jay Electronica, who admitted to some nervousness but devastated the mic anyway. Scott Storch was another fan favorite as he banged along on a keyboard for a few songs without ever removing his shades.
The constantly grinning Owen Biddle made his mastery of the six-string bass look effortless throughout the evening, as keyboard players Kamal Gray and James Poyser traded smiles and obvious inside jokes with percussionist F. Knuckles. Douglas ripped his solos, shredding scales and finger-tapping like a metal maniac over the band's pummeling power grooves. A true showman, he hoisted his guitar over a delighted Estelle, who joined the band for a strong rendition of their Grammy-winning 1999 hit "You Got Me" and the Temptations classic "Get Ready."
Bilal, Foreign Exchange, Ledisi, Mack Main, Lil Twist, Shanell and Linkin Park's Mike Shinoda took turns sitting in with the band as the night stomped forward. Despite the marathon set (which began a few minutes after midnight), people rarely checked the time on their phones but used them to post Twitter and Facebook updates about the show. In an era often dominated by studio trickery, the Roots and their many friends offered a firm reminder of the power of real, live hip-hop, soul and rock-and-roll.

Good sleep is a must for both kids and adults for many reasons. Lack of sleep can lead to so many issues which can be avoided with good sleep every night. Toddlers are most affected by sleep deprivation…..keep reading to understand some of these effects.
Lack of sleep for a toddler can lead to problems in healthy growth. If sleep is not a good quality of sleep or there is not enough of it then growth hormones will not work perfectly and healthy growth and development will not occur.
If toddler is not getting proper sleep at night then it will affect the stimulation of growth hormones. Growth hormones co – ordinates and stimulate the growth of the whole body at the time of sleeping. Muscles, bones and nerves may all be affected.
Sleep deprivation can also have a negative effect on body weight. It can lead to weight loss or weight gain which is not healthy.
Whilst it's normal for toddlers to experience sleeping issues, there are 'normal' sleep problems as well as issues that are not normal. Sleep is just as important as a healthy diet for young children so if your child is experiencing sleep problems then it's important to seek help. It might be only a small change that needs to happen for your child to experience much better quality sleep or there might be a few changes that need to be made. Whatever the issues is our team at Sleep Consulting by Sleepy Starz can definitely help. We are a team of sleep professionals and work with families to ensure healthy sleep habits develop.

PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. – Jan. 16, 2014 – "Welcome to Moe's!" will now be heard again on the streets of Port Charlotte as Moe's Southwest Grill® re-opened today at 1904 Tamiami Trail North. Located at the corner of US 41 and Cochran Blvd., this is the only Moe's in Charlotte County and is now under ownership of franchisee Mike Silverman.
Silverman has been with Moe's for 10 years and owns seven Moe's restaurants across southwest Florida, chiefly around Fort Myers and Naples. He purchased the Port Charlotte location, which had previously seen two different owners and had recently been closed for six months, and plans to turn it around with better leadership, food and service.
"We've had our eye on this location for a while, because we believe it really has the potential to be a first-class Moe's establishment," said Silverman. "Plus, the people of Port Charlotte deserve a Moe's that delivers on quality service, food and fun every time they walk through our doors."
"Welcome to Moe's!" is more than a greeting; it's a way of life for the folks who customize each meal fresh-to-order in front of every guest. All meals, including signature menu items like the Homewrecker burrito, Close Talker salad and John Coctostan quesadilla, are served with free chips and salsa. While Moe's is best known for its burritos, packed with a choice of more than 20 fresh ingredients, the menu also features kid's, vegetarian, vegan and gluten-friendly options.
Ranked the No. 1 Mexican food concept by leading research group Technomic in 2013, Atlanta-based Moe's Southwest Grill serves fresh, made-to-order burritos and southwest fare in a fun and laid-back environment. Moe's in Port Charlotte will be open Monday through Saturday 11 a.m.-9 p.m. and Sunday 11 a.m.-8 p.m. For more information, guests may call 941-979-5167 or visit www.moes.com.
