The Second "Beijing Tourism Global Distribution Partnership Summit" was held at the Olympic Tower in Beijing on August 27,2019. The summit is sponsored by Beijing Municipal Bureau of Culture and Tourism. It aims to assist the construction of the cultural centers and international exchanges centers throughout the country and push forward the "going abroad" of culture and "introducing in" of tourism. It will build the "Beijing Tourism Overseas Promotion Partnership Plan" global system through cooperation with global mainstream channels and renowned travel business people and further increase the inbound tourism of Beijing and promote the city's high-quality commercial consuming mode and optimize its tourism industry structure.
A total of 60 overseas famous tourism agencies from Beijing's major guest source countries such as the US, Japan, Republic of Korea, the UK and Germany, representatives from 60 travel agencies in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei province and 30 media, and representatives from 40 resource entities including hotels in the tourism resorts participated the summit. Jun Wang, Deputy Secretary General of Beijing Municipal Government, attended the meeting and delivered a speech. Dong Chen, Party Secretary of Beijing Bureau of Culture and Tourism, awarded the plates for the 30 candidated overseas partners this year. Yu Song, Director General of the bureau, awarded the prize for five enterprises winning the excellent overseas promotion plan award.
The implementation of "Beijing Tourism Overseas Promotion Partnership Plan" was started in 2018. It plans to spend three years to recruit 100 overseas famous tourism agencies as official partners to sustainably expand Beijing's overseas publicity channels, promote the city's culture and tourism resources to assist the construction of Beijing International Exchange Center.
Through the implementation of the "partnership plan", Beijing Bureau of Culture and Tourism, apart from strengthening the exploration of major guest source market, will cooperate with tourism enterprises in the countries along the "Belt and Road" Initiative such as the United Arab Emirates, Thailand, Malaysia and Poland to launch "dual-way interaction" mode. Under the cooperation partnership framework and through cooperation and exchanges, the plan will actively push forward the promotion and sales of Beijing's tourism products in the local market and gain effective feedback data from the local market.
It is learned that Beijing Bureau of Culture and Tourism had communicated with all overseas tourism enterprises and required them to present Beijing cultural tourism promotion plans based on their local market situations and tourists' characteristics six months prior to the summit in order to have an in-depth understanding to overseas tourism operator's demands and suggestions to Beijing-bound tours. Five of all the 31 plans presented were selected as the best overseas promotion plans. Moreover, Beijing Bureau of Culture and Tourism is preparing a more pertinent plan based on the feedback, to help its partners expand their China- and Beijing-bound tours, and bolster their cooperation with China- and Beijing-based large-scale tourist enterprises.
In an interview, Pengcheng Cao, Deputy Director General of the bureau, said that the organizer would arrange overseas tourists to investigate Beijing's culture-themed tourist resources and enable them to immerse themselves in these sources, such as experiencing China's native brand hotel CHAO and leisure resort Gubei Waterside Town, binding traditional Chinese books in National Library, face-to-face communicating with China Acrobatics Troupe and watching the wonderful performance.
In the future, Beijing Bureau of Culture and Tourism will continue to make use of the platform to make efforts in the promotion of inbound market, bring new products of the city's culture and tourism resources to promote the international attraction of Beijing as a tourism destination.

More Cameras in the House?
House Republican Leader John Boehner has promised to make the chamber more transparent when he becomes speaker next year.
Now, C-SPAN is asking him to make good on that promise.
The all-things-Congress cable network has asked Mr. Boehner's approval to install its own television cameras in the chamber to capture members' reactions during debate or show any other developments that occur away from the fixed lecterns where lawmakers speak, like a rank-and-file House member getting worked over by party leaders to switch his or her vote.
The cameras are currently operated by the House, and reaction shots or other crowd reactions aren't allowed. C-SPAN has offered to install its own cameras and make the feed available to other news networks. The cable network has made similar requests of previous speakers, dating back to Republican Newt Gingrich in 1994. Mr. Boehner is expected to become speaker when his party reclaims the majority early next year.
None of Mr. Boehner's predecessors has agreed to the request, and the Republican leader had not responded to C-SPAN's latest request. The cable channel hand-delivered its request on Nov. 9.
We'll see what Mr. Boehner decides. He has promised to make the chamber more accessible to people outside the Beltway. In remarks to the incoming Republicans on Sunday night, he said, "I believe that the job of the next speaker is to work to restore the institution — restore it to being the People's House."

I use Mind Mapping daily to organise, store and expand my thought processes. My current novel exists as a wall sized mind map which I add to as new research and knowledge comes my way.
So when I started mentoring authors, it was only natural I used them – both over the Internet using desktop sharing and in the workshop using good old paper and coloured pencils.
It got me thinking though as to why they were so good as tools in the creative process & here's what came to me.
Mind Maps are about more than just getting your thoughts down on paper in an organic fashion.
The left hemisphere is known as the logical controlling part of the brain – it has it's uses but can suppress the creative right hemisphere. Perhaps it does this like the devil on the shoulder whispering internally things like, "Don't be stupid, no-one will want to read your book." or "When are you going to find time to write?".
When presented with a Mind Map, the left brain can be tricked into thinking that there's a logical problem to tackle and may say, "I like structure, let me deal with that."
The right brain can then seize it's moment and while the left brain is busy analysing the size, shape and detail of the map, it can unleash it's full creativity – sort of under the radar.
What actually happens is slightly less subversive. The map encourages the two hemispheres to operate in harmony – in 'whole brain thinking'. When the map is complete, you get even more benefits.
The map itself becomes not only committed to memory but is actually stored in the brain as a neural pathway.
This pathway radiates out to the cosmic mind with it's full intention and then the coincidences and enlightenments start to happen ….. and where it gets really funky is when you embed your timeline into the map – more on both of these subjects later …

Oh! father
Oh, father
Wednesday,5th December 2018
It is a heartfelt story
when told to anybody
your vent comes out
and purity is reflected about
Any parent
whether rich or poor at present
they shall always try to take care
and caution you everywhere
it is natural
that you may feel it unreal
take affront to repeated advice
and escape each time after giving false promises
it is not that he may not know
but allow you to go
with another chance in life
so need not to face the rough edge of the knife
life was so nice in his presence
but you may feel it sharply in his absence
he only knew how difficult was it to pull on!
and take the stand on behalf of all
yes, repent for whatever you did
took an extra precaution to hide
and lied on each occasion
with no sense of complication

During the last Dev Days in the Netherlands I've attended to Francesco Balena's presentation on .NET Reflection. It was definitely interesting and it has inspired me to take a closer look at it. After a while I came on the idea of using .NET Reflection for generating release documentation for .NET applications and assemblies. It would once and for all solve the problem of updating the release notes stored in a separate file and getting sure all the changes have been put there.
I would like to show you the way I've put my idea into practice and how you could take it even further.
My demo CustomAttributes solution consists of three projects:
- CustomAttributes – definition of the custom attributes
- CustomAttributesClient – a Windows Forms Application generating the release notes using the .NET reflection
- MyAssembly – a dummy assembly that makes use of the custom attributes should resemble your assemblies
First of all I've created the CustomAttributes project. I've started with creating two custom attributes: Change (for keeping changes) and Features (for marking extra functionality added to the assembly in the given release). Then I thought that it would be nice to store the bug fixes as well. As a bug fix is nothing more than a change I've decided to create a ChangeBase abstract class and make the Change and BugFix classes derive from it. For clarity I've stored each custom attribute in a separate class file.
After defining the attributes I moved to setting the attributes. I've decided to store a date and a description of each change – no matter if it's a Change or a BugFix. As we all use unique initials here at Imtech ICT Business Solutions I've added an optional Named Parameter to the ChangeBase class.
public abstract class ChangeBase : Attribute
protected DateTime _Date;
protected string _Change;
private string _Initials;
public string Initials
get { return _Initials; }
set { _Initials = value.ToUpper(); }
public ChangeBase(string changeDate, string changeDescription)
_Date = DateTime.Parse(changeDate);
_Change = changeDescription;
Then I've moved on to defining the Change and BugFix attributes. Each custom attribute has to have the usage scope defined. As a change or a bug fix can apply almost to any part of a assembly I've decided to set the scope to AttributeTargets.All. Because I want to keep the history of the changes I've set the AllowMultiple attribute to true.
Here are both the attributes:
[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.All, AllowMultiple = true)]
public class ChangeAttribute : ChangeBase
public DateTime Date
get { return base._Date; }
public string Change
get { return base._Change; }
public ChangeAttribute(string changeDate, string changeDescription)
: base(changeDate, changeDescription)
And the BugFix:
[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.All, AllowMultiple = true)]
public class BugFixAttribute : ChangeBase
public DateTime BugFixDate
get { return base._Date; }
public string BugFixDescription
get { return base._Change; }
public BugFixAttribute(string fixDate, string fixDescription)
: base(fixDate, fixDescription)
For clarity I've given new names to the date and description properties in the BugFix attribute. Then I've moved to the Feature attribute. First of all the attributes: I definitely wanted to store the name of each feature and the version of the release it came out with. Next to these I've set some optional space for extra description if needed. As for setting the attribute scope I've chosen for class, method and enumeration only: extra functionality is mostly a bigger chunk of code. Initially I've been using class and method only. Recently however I've faced expanding one of my assemblies with a quite important enumeration, so I've decided to extend the Feature attribute with the enumeration scope as well. So here is how the Feature attribute looks like:
[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Class | AttributeTargets.Method |
AttributeTargets.Enum, AllowMultiple = false)]
public class FeatureAttribute : Attribute
private string _Name;
public string Name
get { return _Name; }
private Version _AddedInVersion;
public Version AddedInVersion
get { return _AddedInVersion; }
private string _Description;
public string Description
get { return _Description; }
set { _Description = value; }
public FeatureAttribute(string featureName, string addedInVersion)
_Name = featureName;
_AddedInVersion = new Version(addedInVersion);
At this moment we have defined three custom attributes we can use for storing the changes within our assemblies and using them for generating release documentation. Below you can see an exemplary assembly making actual use of the defined custom attributes:
public class ClassFoo
public ClassFoo()
[Feature("Sum of n-integers", "1.0")]
public static int Sum(params int[] numbers)
int sum = 0;
foreach (int i in numbers)
sum += i;
return sum;
[Feature("Sum of n-doubles", "1.1")]
public static double Sum(params double[] numbers)
double sum = 0.0;
foreach (double d in numbers)
sum += d;
return sum;
[Feature("Average of n-integers", "1.1")]
public static double Avg(params int[] numbers)
if (numbers.Length > 0)
double avg = Sum(numbers) / numbers.Length;
return avg;
return 0;
[Feature("Average of n-doubles", "1.1")]
[Change("2007-09-16", "Exception if no numbers passed")]
[BugFix("2007-09-17", "Diving by 0 check implemented")]
public static double Avg(params double[] numbers)
if (numbers.Length > 0)
double avg = Sum(numbers) / numbers.Length;
return avg;
throw new ArgumentException
("You haven't passed any numbers to this method");
The assembly doesn't do anything spectacular actually: just a few simple methods. What I would like to focus on is the usage of the attributes.
Let's proceed with the last part of the solution: release notes generator. I've use for this purpose a simple Windows Forms Application with a button, a label (for displaying the file name), a Multiline TextBox for displaying the generated documentation and an OpenFileDialog for choosing the assembly: nothing spectacular so far. First of all I initiate the OpenFileDialog and let the user pick an assembly:
if (openFileDialog.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
OpenFileLabel.Text = openFileDialog.FileName;
Then we move to the core:
private void GenerateReleaseNotes()
Assembly a = Assembly.LoadFile(openFileDialog.FileName);
foreach (Module m in a.GetModules())
//InfoTextBox.Text += m.Name + "\r\n";
foreach (Type t in m.GetTypes())
//InfoTextBox.Text += t.Name + "\r\n";
foreach (MethodInfo mi in t.GetMethods())
if (mi.GetCustomAttributes(typeof(FeatureAttribute),
true).Length > 0)
//InfoTextBox.Text += mi.Name + "\r\n";
foreach (object o in mi.GetCustomAttributes(
typeof(FeatureAttribute), true))
FeatureAttribute fa = (FeatureAttribute)o;
if (!features.ContainsKey(fa.AddedInVersion))
new List<FeatureAttribute>());
FileVersionInfo vi = System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo.
InfoTextBox.Text = String.Format("{0} v{1} by {2}\r\n",
vi.ProductName, vi.ProductVersion, vi.CompanyName);
InfoTextBox.Text += "Available Features:\r\n\r\n";
foreach (KeyValuePair<Version, List<FeatureAttribute>> kvp
in features)
InfoTextBox.Text += "v" + kvp.Key.ToString() + ":\r\n";
foreach (FeatureAttribute fa in kvp.Value)
InfoTextBox.Text += " - " + fa.Name + "\r\n";
InfoTextBox.Text += "\r\n";
First of all we open the assembly using the full file name and path stored in the OpenFileDialog. You could load an assembly residing in the GAC as well. Then we step to processing the methods residing within modules in the selected assembly. In this example we're focusing only on the methods: in the real life you should iterate through all the scope your attributes support to be sure you'll pick all the Features-marked items within the assembly. In the mi.GetCustomAttributes() method we pass the FeatureAttribute as desired type. You could obtain all the available attributes as well but it would only complicate processing them as you would need to obtain the type of each attribute and process each of it separately. As we iterate through the found attributes, we cast each of them to the FeatureAttribute class. As we have the attribute casted we can use its properties straight forward.
As I've wanted to have all the features grouped per version and sorted descending on the version number, I've used the SortedDictionary generic collection with a custom comparer for the stored versions:
private SortedDictionary<Version, List<FeatureAttribute>> features =
new SortedDictionary<Version, List<FeatureAttribute>>(
new VersionComparer());
class VersionComparer : IComparer<Version>
#region IComparer<Version> Members
public int Compare(Version x, Version y)
return y.CompareTo(x);
The comparer isn't that complicated: it makes use of the standard Version comparer but then in the different order what gives us the desired result.
Now we move on to presenting the obtain data. As an extra I've obtained the product name, its version and the company name – all stored in the assembly. I did it using the FileVersionInfo class.
To display all the features within all the versions we will move iteratively through the features collection. We use the KeyValuePair generic for obtaining the combinations. Each pair consists of a Version (Key) and a List of Features (Value). It's all pretty easy to use as all the properties are type safe – all thank to generics.
As we process our dummy assembly we get the following release notes:
It's not much but I think it's a good beginning for extending the client application with other attributes we've just defined, extending the attributes with new properties or maybe even defining some new ones. The idea of keeping the documentation right next to the code works for me pretty well – no more extra documents and files!
As you might've noticed the GenerateReleaseNotes method contains some commented lines. You can check them out if you wish to get some more details on the way the assembly is actually being processed.
I hope I've inspired you to having a look at the demo project and having some more fun with the custom attributes. Let me know if you have any questions regarding this post or custom attributes in .NET.
You can download the solution I've used as well (Orcas format).

Writing has always struck me as an immensely lonely experience. I have put content up on several blogs for over five years, and seen all sorts of fluctuations in views. Sometimes I strike a chord in nearby friends with a wary word of mine. Sometimes I win things with the sentences that I string together. That's really rare. Most times nothing happens. I have reached out to my nearest and dearest to get sincerest feedback on my best shit but believe me the relief of the lonely is temporary. It is a fluctuation from the form, a brief shift in something fundamentally a thing for me and by me. I based it in solipsism since I was a boy. For me it has been a way to address the words that bite at the back of my brain and stain a page with them. Readers mostly come and go without matching a word of mine with theirs.
I am alright with that. I promise. This isn't a guilt trip trap to get you to read more, so rest easy and go as far as you like.
A long time ago I was antisocial and hid away any words I did. I disliked the way other people talked and read, so I'd spray whatever I wanted out across a page and assume it'd go misunderstood. These days publishing the things I make is a solid love – but one I forget about. It is something real and often rewarding, though not always so consuming. Both back then and now I feel lonely in writing, even though currently I let people read me when I think I've prettied up. There's nothing wrong with that though, and I am not trying to lodge a complaint or make a call.
I have asked plenty of people to connect to something, and I have had plenty oblige me. It is pretty nice, a great way to socialize. But, there's a level of love for this thing I do almost rote that's never really shared and probably shouldn't be. There is an effort in writing that can't fully be received when an hour's write is a minute's read, so it starts feel solitary – like the smoothness of a final draft hides the mountains climbed just to make it decent. There's a way that even friends and family will fall off from my collection as it expands, too.
That's okay. When I was younger I'd get sore about it, but then I got around to adulthood and understood their business better. They aren't obligated and what they do read is more than enough for me now. When they read, the things they say always surprise me and often light up my whole week. But if I wrote for them – to chase down that sensation of togetherness – then I'd have stopped a long time ago.
I started writing a lot in fifth grade, so it's been over a decade now and I think I've finally learned how to be alone with words. After this time dragging my linguistics alongside me, pipe dreams of a million readers and a bestselling book haven't died, but I don't think they need to for me to understand that an actual audience would not divorce the loneliness from writing. I'd still be sitting up alongside myself at night, digging up shallow ground I contrived to be deep to produce another story. I'd still be gratifying the things I found right and feeding or pouring out emotionality to keep myself on balance. Until I stop loving it, all these words are primarily for me. It is unfair to give a gift to yourself and pretend it's for someone else.
Writing is lonely, but because it is for me. Writing makes me feel alright being alone because I use it to settle the scores I have with myself. It is not a proper way I measure myself, though sometimes I mess up and try to use it as a ruler. It is not a part of my struggle to be a better person and correct my shittier behaviors, though sometimes I've slipped up and used it as a soapbox. Nor is it enhancing my career or saving me money, though plenty of times I wished it did both. If anything, it lightens the load of managing all those other things and so it belongs mostly to me. Sharing it brings so many surprises and fine moments that I rarely regret it but in the end it is my way to properly settle with myself when no one else is around.
In America, a person can feel unaccompanied across any number of social circles. No one is bound by their social setting, they are encouraged to be free and fly toward the thing that gets them their personal glory. There's no yuanfen or reincarnated spirits catching up over another lifetime. There's often just that lonely feeling in knowing that any relationship can be transitory. I am alone in writing because anyone's relationship to my writing is just as transitory, floating article to article based on their time tables – and saying that should never condemn them or me. I like being alone in writing, because ever since I started I've felt more like my relationship with myself isn't transitory – Like I am by my own side. As I have come to let friends and family inspire me, I've felt our relationships may not be so transitory either. I might feel alone but seldom empty and for me that's how to be alone with words.

NEW ORLEANS — Entergy Corporation has issued 2010 earnings guidance assuming a business as usual operation for the full year as well as post-spin financial outlooks for Entergy and Enexus Energy Corporation. In addition, Entergy outlined its preliminary three-year capital expenditure plan for the period 2010 through 2012.
J. Wayne Leonard, Entergy's chairman and CEO, said, "With line of sight on ultimate resolution in 2010, the Entergy board of directors has granted authority for an additional $750-million share repurchase program, following completion of an initial $500-million authorization in third quarter 2009. While it is expected the additional share repurchases under the new authorization will occur following spin-off completion in the near-term, consistent with the $500-million authorization, the incremental $750 million of share repurchase capacity is supported by the underlying business operations whether or not the spin-off transaction is completed."
As the proposed spin-off date of Entergy's non-utility nuclear business is not yet known with certainty at this time, Entergy is initiating 2010 earnings guidance in the range of $6.40 to $7.20 per share on an operational basis, assuming a business as usual operation for the full year. As-reported earnings per share guidance ranges from $6.15 to $6.95 and reflects $(0.25) per share of projected dis-synergies associated with the spin-off and plans to enter into a nuclear services joint venture. Guidance for 2010 does not incorporate a special item for expenses, which were incurred beginning in 2008 and are expected to continue in 2010, anticipated in connection with outside services provided to pursue the spin-off. The level of these charges in 2010 will vary depending upon resolution of the spin-off.
Financial aspirations for the period 2009 through 2014 include:
Growing earnings:
• Entergy — Double digit compound annual earnings per share growth over the 2009 through 2014 horizon
• Enexus — Realizing $2 billion of adjusted EBITDA in 2014 and/or through share repurchases. The Adjusted EBITDA aspiration is expected to be achieved from power price increases on open positions and/or deployment of capital resulting in additional EBITDA potential. In addition, Enexus anticipates periodic return of capital in the form of share repurchases, with current estimated Adjusted EBITDA levels supporting such distributions
Capital deployment:
• Through a balanced capital investment/return program for both Entergy and Enexus
Credit quality and flexibility to manage risk and act on opportunities:
• Entergy — investment grade credit
• Enexus — "BB"/"Ba" range credit
The preliminary capital plan from 2010 through 2012 anticipates $7.1 billion for investment, including $2.7 billion of maintenance capital. The remaining $4.4 billion is for specific investments, as well as other initiatives

Gordon Brown woke this morning to yet more bad news about his campaign after learning that Gillian Duffy the pensioner from Rochdale he branded only yesterday as a 'Bigoted woman' is to stand for election herself.
Despite apologies Browns massive blunder is sure to see his popularity plummet even further and Duffy plans to exploit his weaknesses and put herself in the race.
When the news was broken to Brown he reportedly threw over chairs, shouted and screamed. Emerging to the press however he smiled widely and stated "This announcement is a perfect reason to celebrate democracy, because no matter who wins the race and becomes PM democracy is the true winner."
Gillian Duffy also spoke to the cameras saying "All them bloody politicians, none of 'em know anything. I'll soon put this country right, just vote for me."
The latest opinion poll shows Ms Duffy leading with 33 points seeing The Torys and the Lib Dems fall into joint second and Labours popularity now being lumped in with the 'other' parties.

I have been having some fun times since the last time I chatted with you people, let me say! Last night, I went to my first opera, and saw my first UFC match! I wore the same outfit, too, because I figured Bubba Ray's Sports Bar could do with some class. (Dammit, I own a tuxedo jacket, and I will wear it.)
So, opera! I learned, when people are singing in that crazy operatic tone, I cannot understand a flipping word. Well, maybe I got, like, 1/20 of the words, tops. The fact that it was Dido and Aeneas, set in a high school, without changing the plot to fit the setting for some reason, did not help. And then, at the end, Dido got up on her funeral pyre and did not set her goddamned self on fire! That was the one thing I was looking forward too! Who the hell builds a funeral pyre and then stabs herself? Prom Queen Dido, apparently.
But UFC was awesome, so awesome. I went with junior kickboxers (also went to the opera with them), and they were excited I was there because I'm the only grappler in the group. So I could explain what was going on whenever the fight went down to the ground. I'm useful! Anyway, I never really got the whole sports bar thing before now, but it's seriously fun! We all yelled at the screens during the boring parts, and cheered during the awesome parts, and it was great. I really want to talk to people about the cool parts, too. The boring parts sucked, but when it got great, it was so great.
I did grappling today, and I had a bit of a weird little breakthrough. We do this thing called pummelling, which is demonstrated here. Basically demonstrated, anyway, the way I do it I grab on really tight, but whatever. It's basically hug-dance fighting, and for some reason I have been completely crap at it, until today! I just got it! Anyway, I'm just happy. It makes up for the fact that I was learning some other thing where I flip my partner over her head and onto her back while I'm doing a shoulder stand under her and I was really shit at it and hurting my partner and I just had to stop because I was not getting it. It is hard to tell directions when you're upside down and spinning!
Kickboxing yesterday! I didn't have any need to wear my head gear, but I did put on my shin guards. As soon as I put them on, I told Gerald they made my legs look fat and I didn't want them anymore, so that is my new joke about shin guards, be ready for that. In reality-land, though, they make my legs sweat like a police informant. Who would expect heavy, leather encasements for your legs would cause sweat? I am baffled. In the end, we didn't do kicks so I had them on for nothing, but Tammy had fun kicking my legs anyway, so I'm happy! We also did a drill that was all about blocking uppercuts, over and over again. Holy crap, hard on the boobs. My awesome sportsbra has padding for extra protection, but it still hurt. I need some kind of Xena bra, that'll help. Solve every problem I've ever had, probably.

I\'m having a little trouble to understand the current flows on the USB bus. I realize that a Raspberry-PI itself can\'t feed anything more power demanding than a keyboard, mouse or USB storage stick. No 2½\" HD and such.
But what if I have a powered USB hub like i.e this: www.amazon.co.uk/Edimax-EU-4230-USB-100 ... B0029VJK5E
This one can power down stream devices by its own PSU, but can it also feed the R-PI upstream? R-PI uses less power than a 2½\" disk.

Critical Evaluation
(Critical Survey of Literature, Revised Edition)
Abraham Lincoln, sixteenth President of the United States and author of the Gettysburg Address, has come to be recognized as a creative speaker with an individual and appealing style. He had a perceptive sense of humor and an awareness of human dignity and of the tragedy which occurs with the loss of it. His arguments were logically respectable and responsive to the problems of his times. Although he always retained a directness of statement and feeling which reflected the conditions of his boyhood in Kentucky and Indiana, he was by no means a merely homespun speaker or writer; his poetic phrasing and imagery, Biblical allusions, and rhetorical devices all testify to the fact that he was a well-educated and intelligent man who could speak to any kind of audience in a manner and with the diction appropriate to the occasion.
But Lincoln was not perfect. If it is relevant to state the fact of his imperfection, the reason is that Lincoln's compassion and understanding and his contribution to the creation of American democracy as we know it have so impressed his fellow citizens that sometimes romantic legends lead us to believe that he never spoke without winning assen and admiration from those whom he addressed. But since he was human and to err is human, and since he was sometimes called upon to speak when there was no great problem to resolve or attack, he was on occasion ineffective in what he said.
Once the legend of Lincoln's perfection is dispelled, the fact of his greatness as a man, a President, and a speaker emerges. The Gettysburg Address of 1863 was no isolated phenomenon; the ideas, the sentiments, the clear eloquence had all been heard before, but never with such economy and depth.
"The Perpetuation of Our Political Institutions," one of the earliest of Lincoln's speeches, was an address given to the Young Men's Lyceum of Springfield, Illinois, on January 27, 1838. Lincoln began by recalling the political and social legacy bequeathed the American people of the nineteenth century by their fathers, and he asked how the task of maintaining the liberties transmitted to them might best be performed. He argued that the danger of loss came not from abroad but only from Americans themselves: "If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher." Lincoln then referred to several violent instances of mob action and argued that such disregard for law could result in the loss of the legacy of freedom. Although the passion of revolution had helped Americans achieve their liberty, it was necessary to let reason and a reverence for law prevail.
In this early speech there is ample evidence of Lincoln's power, a power partly literary and partly spiritual. The young speaker reflected his sense of his role, as a citizen, to transmit the American heritage. Like his contemporaries, he placed his faith in reason, law, the orderly processes of government, and a sense of human dignity; but he added to this conventional faith his own clear conviction and commitment, applying the principles of democracy to the immediate danger he found about him. His philosophy of government was conservative; he did not speak for abolition—but what he conserved were the principles needed in critical times. His character, not the particular strain of his politics, was already the most persuasive element in his addresses; the demands of the Presidency in a time of civil war were to realize the nobility of that character.
At the close of the Republican State Convention at Springfield, Illinois, on June 16, 1858, Lincoln delivered an acceptance of the senatorial nomination. This speech marked the beginning of the campaign that was to involve him in the series of debates with Stephen A. Douglas. After referring to the increase in slavery agitation, Lincoln declared:In my opinion, it will not cease, until a crisis shall have been reached, and passed— "A house divided against itself cannot stand." I believe this government cannot...

The digital age is well underway, and for financial institutions looking to make the most of their ATMs, it's one trend that is not slowing down.
One report from Retail Banking Research (RBR) highlighted the growth of digital bank branches. These are financial institutions that offer consumers the chance to complete a number of tasks without the operational back office and need for employees.
These branches typically include ATMs, change dispensers, currency exchangers, desktop terminals and video remote advisers. However, they're now incorporating tablets, mobile phones and standalone video banking devices.
"Customer relationship management software, improved telecommunications and channel integration play critical roles in maximizing the potential of the developing range of customer facing devices," RBR stated in its report. "The functionality that they deliver includes personalization and one-to-one marketing, together with the ability to initiate a transaction through one channel and complete it through another. Examples of other important new technologies include biometric authentication, facial recognition and digital signatures."
Data from Capgemini Consulting shows that the number of U.S. customers who prefer self-service banking options is on the rise. Digital branches can provide a service to this market while still making use of the fact that most banking products are sold in-branch. Additionally, with research showing that nearly half of U.S. banking customers believe a bank is not legitimate unless it has branches, maintaining a branch presence is essential.
However, even with technological advances transforming what branches can be, ATMs remain a cornerstone. Consumers want to be able to withdraw money, deposit checks, make transfers and conduct other business without having to wait in long lines to interact with tellers.
This makes choosing quality ATMs an essential part of success for bank branches, digital or not.

They were inspired to uplift your spirits with fresh, zippy essential oils and bright, colorful designs. The best part? Everything is entirely cruelty-free, so hop to it and fill your basket! Products available online now!
LUSH sent us some of their best selling Easter products to try out in our home. From the moment they arrived, the scent filled our home and everything was amazing. We are no strangers to LUSH. My kids have loved their Dragon's Egg for years and we have tried several other products but I think that we have now found our favorites.
Here is what we tried from above:
The original Easter egg-shaped Bath Bomb, Fluffy egg is a classic customer favorite that we bring back each Easter for its masses of incredibly loyal fans. While we love the cheery pink color, it's the intoxicating candy-sweet aroma that will really draw you in to its fluffy ways! Pop this one into the tub to sink into softening, brilliantly pink water, and you'll be left smelling like scrumptious vanilla-cotton candy. Delicious!
Retails for $5.95
Hop in the tub with this adorable bubbly bunny for silky, sweet waters and lots of fluffy foam! We've added loads of coconut oil and shea butter to soften and moisturize the skin, and the sweet, comforting fragrance of Fairtrade vanilla absolute to calm the mind. Tiny blue cornflower petals are at the center of this Bunny's tummy and will swirl about in the tub for the ultimate springtime bathing experience. This little love is big enough for two baths, so hop to it!
Retails for $6.95
Unleash fire and bathe in a whirlpool of magnificently vibrant, sizzling color and a spectacular explosion of sights, sounds, and scents. Inhale the refreshing sherbet-y citrus scent of lemon and bergamot; you'll feel like you're up and away on the back of your own dragon. This mystical Bath Bomb fizzles, crackles, curls, and ends with a glitter explosion. Citrus oils are known for their invigorating effect on the mind, and Dragon's Egg is no exception! Drop one of these into the bath for a serious wake-up call on groggy mornings, or before an evening out.
Retails for $6.25
This spectacular new invention has combined a Bath Bomb and a Luxury Bath Melt to create (drumroll please…) the Bath Bomb Melt! The creamy, moisturizing cocoa butter exterior encases a fizzy Bath Bomb center, and the whole egg is dusted in a delicate golden luster. Even better? This new invention has the classic honey-toffee fragrance of our best-selling Honey I Washed The Kids soap. Wherever your Easter egg hunt begins, make sure it finishes with a Golden Egg bath!
The amazing smell will lead your nose right to the bathroom where you will want to soak in a luxurious tub. Retails for $8.95
Everything about this Bubble Bar will leave you feeling cheerful and looking on the bright side of life! When you crumble this one under the tap, your tub will turn into a vivid, hypnotizing red-orange sunset with frothy white clouds of bubbles. Sink in and inhale the uplifting citrus blend of Sicilian mandarin, tangerine and bergamot oils, and imagine yourself in a sun-drenched locale. You'll emerge from the tub feeling energized and smelling like a dream!
This happens to be one of my favorites. I love the feel and the smell so much that I stole it from my kids bathroom so I could use it for myself! Retails for $10.95
One last Easter surprise that my kids loved:
This soap may look like a giant carrot, but it certainly doesn't smell like one! LUSH has created an energizing, tropical blend of Sicilian lemon oil and fruity buchu oil that's sure to put some spring in your step. A healthy helping of cocoa butter softens and moisturizes your skin as you wash, and carrot oil lends its nourishing, conditioning qualities to leave your skin feeling smooth, clean and refreshed. A leaping white bunny jumps across each slice as a reminder that all of our products are strictly cruelty-free, and that LUSH continues to fight animal testing.
Retails for $6.95
Products were provided by LUSH Fresh Handmade Cosmetics for review.
We used to have a Lush store in our local mall and oh how I miss it! =( That Fluffy egg bat bomb looks awesome, I might just have to travel to the Lush store in the city (I'm close to NYC) to pick one up!
Oh my goodness, how ADORABLE! I just fell in love with the little bunnies. I need those, these sound amazing!
What a cute idea for Easter. I can imagine these would be awesome gifts for Mother's Day too. I know I want a few 🙂
I love love lush bath bombs and soaps, such an amazing company and great prices. Love your review!!

I hate that there is not a Lush closer to us. I really love their products, especially the fresh face masks.
Our bathroom remodel is almost finished, and this really makes me look forward to pampering myself again!
I've never heard of Lush before. This sounds like a great product to try. I like pretty things to sit in the guest bathroom and family bathroom.
That bunny is absolutely adorable! If I bought that, I wouldn't let anyone use it. Just too cute.
I love the Dragon's egg one! That looks so cool.
I love the energizing citrus oils in my tub so I'd definitely be loving the Dragon's Egg! I bet it smells amazing!
