Discussion about Seamonkey builds
9 posts • Page 1 of 1
I decided to try SeaMonkey 2.36 on my Mac from Tinderbox builds on the Moz FTP site, and it would not start. I compared the contents of the app package of 2.36 with 2.35 and found that in the MacOS folder, libmozalloc.dylib is missing in SM 2.36. When I copied that file from SM 2.35 to 2.36, it would start. Why is that file missing from a build which is available from a download site? Why include a build that will not start up because something is missing?
It's a tinderbox build - by definition, it's an automated build triggered by any change made to the repository, as long as it compiles, whether the automated tests proceed or not. Thus, like nightly builds, they may be completely broken.
Always make sure that you know which build you are using, and figure out if it's the right one for you...
Why could they not just add in libmozalloc.dylib if it is missing? I did that, and 2.36 did start up. The SeaMonkey menu had only "Quit SeaMonkey" in it, however. What would cause that? All the other files were present.
I'm not certain, but maybe something like because this is dangerous and highly likely to lead to linking errors if the build isn't designed (at build time) to work with that specific libmozalloc.dylib?
No idea... maybe bad linking caused by it being the "wrong" libmozalloc.dylib? That menu is normal for me in a self build...
I would suggest that if you are going to copy a libmozalloc.dylib, that rather than copying libmozalloc.dylib from SeaMonkey 2.35, try copying it from Firefox 39.0 release. That may not work either but it is probably closer to what you would get in a self build.
(Disclaimer: I self built the 2.36 I'm using so haven't tried any of this stuff, so I have no idea if, or how, it will work. I wouldn't be comfortable copying a libmozalloc into a different Firefox/SeaMonkey/other Gecko application and running the result on my main machine. Do this at your own risk, and preferably in a disposable environment or otherwise where everything is backed up.)
That's what the patch in the bug report is doing (among a few other things referencing that library, which may be the reason that it only "kind of" worked for you).
The patch just has been approved to land for 2.36, but hasn't done so yet (tree status in SeaMonkey is a bit fuzzy due to the infrastructure issues). There was some discussion whether or not Thunderbird needs it as well, but they don't, given that they skipped their 39.0 beta.
Patch checked in, the next comm-release 2.36 tinderbox build should have the fix.
I tried getting libmozalloc.dylib from Firefox 39 and putting that into SM 2.36 and it worked better. The SeaMonkey menu looked normal. Thanks for the suggestion. I am still using 2.35, since it works well enough. I was going to wait for the final release, but if that does not happen, I will have to switch to 2.36 and hope eventually there will be an official release.
SeaMonkey 2.35 is work in progress, 2.36 should follow shortly thereafter.

Summer of Stockbridge: SO much to Celebrate!
50th Anniversaries for Chesterwood, Norman Rockwell Museum, And The Red Lion Inn
100th Anniversary of Austen Riggs Center
For nearly 300 years, Stockbridge has been a magnet for some of America's most captivating and creative minds. Its charm, beauty and proximity to urban centers have helped establish it as a hub of tourism and culture, which defines our small town. This year we celebrate milestone anniversaries for 4 of the town's most significant institutions: The Red Lion Inn, The Norman Rockwell Museum, Austen Riggs Center and Chesterwood. Learn more about the fascinating intersections between these organizations when you join us for the Summer of Stockbridge: A Season of Celebrations!
-The daughter of Daniel Chester French, Margaret French Cresson, was an accomplished sculptor in her own right; she was friends with Dr. Lawrence Kirby Lunt at Austen Riggs and sculpted his son, Larry, in 1924.
-In 1896 Daniel Chester French and wife Mary came to Stockbridge to look for a country home. They stayed at the Red Lion Inn and fell in love with Stockbridge.
-The Austen Riggs Alumni reunion was held at the Red Lion Inn in 1994.
-The Corner House was saved by Jane Fitzpatrick and the "Founding Mothers", and the house evolved into the first Norman Rockwell Museum from 1969-1993. The Corner House was recently purchased by the Austen Riggs Center.
-Rockwell initially moved to Stockbridge in 1953 to be near the Austen Riggs Center, for his wife Mary's treatment.
-Rockwell painted the Red Lion Inn, Stockbridge Firehouse and the Fitzpatricks, plus many other local residents including James Mower, long-time superintendent of the Austen Riggs Center, were his models, and several local scenes (Most notably Main Street at Christmas, when RLI was still closed during the winter months.)
-Rockwell developed a relationship with renowned psychoanalyst Erik Erikson; their professional relationship and friendship is explored in the Museum's summer exhibition.
-Jack Fitzpatrick collected Rockwell signed prints and artist proofs, which are on view at the the Red Lion Inn.
-Rockwell painted several depictions of Abe Lincoln, including one with Daniel Chester French's seated Lincoln for the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC, featured during Rockwell's Stockbridge years. French completed the 1916 plaster model for his Lincoln figure in his studio, which remains on view at Chesterwood, the artists' home and studio in Stockbridge.
-Recognizing the role of the creative process as part of mental health, Joan Mowat Erikson introduced the Riggs Activity Program and Theatre 37 at the Riggs Lavender Door.
-There is correspondence between Margaret French Cresson and Norman Rockwell in the Chesterwood archives at Chapin Library, Williams College.
-In 1964, there was an exhibition on the work of Norman Rockwell at Chesterwood.
-Both the wife, Mary A. French, and daughter, Margaret French Cresson, of Daniel Chester French sought medical treatment from doctor's at Austen Riggs, including Dr. Riggs himself.

The <EMBED> tag allows media file types other than those directly supported by the browser to be handled with an external application or plugin. In this case, the external application is QuickTime Player and the plugin is the QuickTime Plugin.
With the release of Internet Explorer 5.5 SP2 and later, you must use an <OBJECT> tag in addition to the <EMBED> tag for your web pages to be compatible with both Netscape and Internet Explorer on Mac and Windows systems.
The list of <EMBED> attributes is long; here we will document the <EMBED> attributes specific to QuickTime.
The Basic Necessities
The <EMBED> tag is similar to the <IMG> tag; they both have a SRC, WIDTH and HEIGHT parameter. These parameters are required and tell the browser the media to be displayed and the width and height of the media specified in the SRC attribute.
For example:
<embed src="sample.mov" width="320" height="256"></embed>
The SRC attribute is the media file to display either by an absolute or relative URL. The HEIGHT attribute specifies the vertical size in pixels of the SRC attribute. The WIDTH attribute specifies its horizontal size.
In order for the controller to appear properly, add 16 pixels to the height of a movie.
For example, set HEIGHT="256" for a movie 240 pixels high: <embed src="sample.mov" width="320" height="256"></embed>
For a sound-only movie, use a height of 16 for the controller and any width that looks good on your Web page. (If you set the width to 16 for a sound-only movie, the controller is minimized to a single Play/Pause button.)
For example:
<embed src="sound.mov" width="216" height="16"></embed>
Never set HEIGHT or WIDTH to less than 2, even if the movie is hidden.

You are really going to hate me, because today I am going to debunk this theory and why it causes so many writers to stifle themselves in a corner and refuse to grab hold of any editor or agent's words of advice.
When I was writing my first historical novel (what do I mean first? There was only one!) Anyway, when I was working on my HF novel, I hired a wonderful lady, Tiffany Colter to edit it for me. We spent hours poring over my poor prose and weak dialogue. At one point early in the process of working together, I hired her for a phone consultation. And because I had heard it so often, I said the first words that popped into my head "It's my baby and it is hard to hear tough, mean things said about it."
I paused.
What? My baby? I sat back and stared at the computer screen. Was I crazy? I could barely stand this story, it was stale and trapped in the middle of a busy intersection. No manner of prodding from me was going to get it to move.
No. This was most definitely NOT my baby.
And forgive me, I am going to be mean and then get nice again: that is problem with many writers. Especially…. new ones.
Okay, are you still here? I am really sorry, but I do believe that we seriously need to step back from our own rose colored glasses and look at our writing and this topic objectively.
I will not deny it, it is hard to have someone look at your work and tell you it needs…. well…. work. It can even sting because words on the screen can often come across as much harsher than in real life. And often times we need to get away from those words and well, if you are any of the other ladies here, eat plenty of chocolate or if you are ME go pig out on a jar of carrots. It is much healthier! O-kay, we won't go there right now, that argument has already hit the loop, don't want to start up World War III here-- again.
Seeing the overflowing red ink that stains the computer screen in the form of comments is hard and uncomfortable and the suggestions will not always need to be headed, take it with a grain of salt, but don't throw in the sweetener in just yet and the spices to cover the bitter taste. You want to see what needs to be fixed in your manuscript, but let's face it. Adam and Eve sinned and nothing has been perfect since. I know, it stinks, but it is true. None of us are perfect and though we would like to think that our manuscripts are without their faults that is a gross understatement.
The intent of our heart should be to always make something better, even when it hurts us.
Because when it comes right down to it, the story we have written, once it leaves our hands, does not become a part of us. In some ways it is like a child, as that is must be freed into the world to stand on its own two feet. And yes it does hurt the parent when they hear that their baby is being damaged, but just like with children, at a certain point the training wheels have to come off and you have to let 'er glide on their own.
Because in the end, this willingness to separate yourself from the hard work and sweat and tears you have put into this manuscript will have to land on an agent or editor's desk and they will either love it or hate it depending on which side of the bed they got up on, and when it comes back either rejected or marked up with plentiful changes, you as the writer, need to be able to see that the person on the other end of the red pen is not murdering your baby, but making it stronger. There is a big difference and I think all too often, we only see the former and not the latter.
Being a person who is easy to work with and is always willing to learn no matter how difficult the lesson may be, is someone an editor/ agent wants to work with. If they have to fight you every step of the way, because "you're baby" had its feelings hurt, they aren't going to want to work with you. And in the big picture, this really prepares you for readers, who I am sure from your own experience of writing book reviews or reading them, can be ruthless.
So right now, throw out the ideology that is your baby, and view it as a project, a craft that needs to be honed and perfected, only through hard work, sweat and maybe a few tears. Nothing good ever comes easy.
So, do you agree, disagree, are you hurrying to your blogger account to stop following the Alley? Making a note on your calendar to NEVER return on Thursdays? Go ahead, tell me, so I can go cry that you didn't like my baby. : (

The Holy Spirit is the only one who can kill us and keep us dead. Many Christians try to do this disagreeable work themselves, and they are going through a continual crucifixion but can never accomplish the work permanently. This is the work of the Holy Spirit, and when we really yield ourselves to the death, it is delightful to find how sweetly He can execute the sentence.
They tell us that by the touch of the electric spark life is extinguished almost without a quiver of pain. However this may be in natural things, we know the Holy Spirit can touch with celestial fire the surrendered thing, after it is really yielded up to the sentence of death, and slay it in a moment. The yielding is our business, and it is God's business to execute the sentence and to keep it constantly operative.
May we not live in the pain of perpetual and ineffective suicide, but reckoning ourselves dead indeed, let us leave ourselves in the hands of the blessed Holy Spirit. He will slay whatever rises in opposition to His will and keep us true to our heavenly reckoning and filled with His resurrection life.
If ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live �Romans 8:13
Do not be anxious about anything. Instead, in every situation, through prayer and petition with thanksgiving, tell your requests to God.�Phil 4:6 NET
Not a few Christians live in a state of unbroken anxiety, and others fret and fume terribly. To be perfectly at peace amid the hurly-burly of daily life is a secret worth knowing. What is the use of worrying? It never made anybody strong; never helped anybody to do God�s will; never made a way of escape for anyone out of perplexity. Worry spoils lives which would otherwise be useful and beautiful. Restlessness, anxiety, and care are absolutely forbidden by our Lord, who said: �Take no thought,� that is, no anxious thought, �saying what shall we eat, or what shall we drink, or wherewithal shall we be clothed?� He does not mean that we are not to take forethought and that our life is to be without plan or method; but that we are not to worry about these things. People know you live in the realm of anxious care by the lines on your face, the tones of your voice, the minor key in your life, and the lack of joy in your spirit. Scale the heights of a life abandoned to God, then you will look down on the clouds beneath your feet. �Rev. Darlow Sargeant
It is always weakness to be fretting and worrying, questioning and mistrusting. Can we gain anything by it? Do we not unfit ourselves for action, and unhinge our minds for wise decision? We are sinking by our struggles when we might float by faith.
Oh, for grace to be quiet! Oh, to be still and know that Jehovah is God! The Holy One of Israel must defend and deliver His own. We may be sure that every word of His will stand, though the mountains should depart. He deserves to be confided in. Come, my soul, return unto thy rest, and lean thy head upon the bosom of the Lord Jesus. �Selected
�Peace thy inmost soul shall fill
Lying still!�
Inspirational Readings by A.B. Simpson

The flesh is incurably bad. It is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. It can never be any better. It is no use trying to improve the flesh. We may educate it all we please. We may train it by the most approved methods, we may set before it the brightest examples, we may pipe to it or mourn before it we may treat it with encouragement or severity. But its nature will always be incorrigibly the same.
The wild hawk which the little child captures in its infancy and tries to train in the habits of the dove will fasten its cruel beak upon the gentle fingers that caress it, showing the old wild spirit of fear and ferocity. So the flesh is a hawk by nature, and it can never be made a dove. For the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
The only remedy for human nature is to destroy it and receive instead the divine nature. God does not improve man. He crucifies the natural life with Christ and creates the new man in Christ Jesus.
The carnal mind is enmity against God �Romans 8:7
Rom 6:7 For he that is dead is freed from sin.
Rom 6:16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
Rom 6:18 Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.
Rom 6:19 I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness.
Rom 6:20 For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness.
Rom 6:21 What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.
Rom 6:22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
Rom 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

If when it seems your old self has come back, you listen to it, fear it, believe it, it will have the same influence upon you as if it were not dead. It will control you and destroy you. Instead, simply ignore it and say: "You are not I, you are Satan trying to make me believe that my old self is not dead. I refuse you. I treat you as a demon power outside of me, I detach myself from you." The evil thing will disappear, the shadow will vanish, the wand of faith will dispel the troubling spirit and send it back to the abyss. In its place we will find Christ there instead with His risen life to back up our confidence and seal our victory.
Satan can stand anything better than neglect. If we ignore him he becomes disgusted and disappears. Jesus turned His back upon him and said, Get thee behind me, Satan. So let us refuse him, and we shall find that he will be compelled to act according to our faith.
Once I believed I must always be stumbling
For my old nature was poisoned with sin;
Now there's a mightier Power upholds me,
Cleansing and keeping and dwelling within.
Get thee behind me, Satan �Matthew 16:23
I have not found evil to go away by ignoring it. I have had to resist it, which is what is being encouraged at the beginning of the devotional. In having great respect for A.B. Simpson I really do not accept that he really believes what it appears that he is saying. Not having the complete context of his statement, I can only give what I know to be truth.
In the Bible we do have many examples, one in the OT is of Achon in Joshua 7.
In the NT here is the account quoted from Net Bible, that is mentioned in the devotional.
"Then Jesus began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and experts in the law, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
He spoke openly about this. So Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him.
But after turning and looking at his disciples, he rebuked Peter and said, "Get behind me, Satan. You are not setting your mind on God's interests, but on man's."
Then Jesus called the crowd, along with his disciples, and said to them, "If anyone wants to become my follower, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.
For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and for the gospel will save it.
For what benefit is it for a person to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his life?
What can a person give in exchange for his life?
For if anyone is ashamed of me and my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will also be ashamed of him when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels." Mark 8:31-38
If you examine the truth of God's creation, if diseased, rotting produce is not removed from the basket, the entire basket will become rotten in time.
Jesus taught that....
"When an unclean spirit goes out of a person, it passes through waterless places looking for rest but does not find it.
Then it says, 'I will return to the home I left.' When it returns, it finds the house empty, swept clean, and put in order.
Then it goes and brings with it seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they go in and live there, so the last state of that person is worse than the first. It will be that way for this evil generation as well!" Matthew 12:43-45
Both physically and spiritually I find the Bible to have the truth, the answer for real deliverance and protection (most often translated as saved). Paul says....
Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its desires, and do not present your members to sin as instruments to be used for unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as those who are alive from the dead and your members to God as instruments to be used for righteousness. Romans 6:12-13
Do you not know that if you present yourselves as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one you obey, either of sin resulting in death, or obedience resulting in righteousness? Romans 6:16
In the realm of health, I have come to believe a different philosophy than that which is in the world.
God created our bodies to heal themselves. Most all of the cells in the human body are totally replaced in something like a year's time. When you are injured, given the proper response, cleanliness, etc, the body heals itself.
If a body is sick, cleanse the surroundings and the items fed the body and it will heal. Build and strengthen the immune system and the bad bacteria that enters the body will be destroyed by the good bacteria.
Basically, stop doing what is wrong, clean up the life and its surroundings, start doing what is know to be correct and you will experience deliverance from that which is harmful, leading to premature death.
Jesus' instruction would parallel the physical. He said to repent, die to self, take my yoke upon yourself, become one with me, and demonstrate your love for me by keeping my commands. The Bible stress over and over the importance of the heart and mind and staying under the influence of the divine, the Word of God. Remain clean by not conforming to the world, but by being transformed into the image of Jesus Christ with fruit that establishes that transformation to the world.
Follow the thoughts of Paul regarding who or what we yield our members to, James tells to.....
So submit to God. But resist {to stand against, that is, oppose} the devil and he will flee from you. Draw near to God and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and make your hearts pure, you double-minded. James 4:7-8
So what are the supporters of evil and the enemies of righteousness and truth purported to say on the subject of turning the back on a lie. Satan is the father of lies and what he is all about, deception and darkness?
"If a lie is only printed often enough, it becomes a quasi-truth, and if such a truth is repeated often enough, it becomes an article of belief, a dogma, and men will die for it." Unknown
�If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.� Joseph Goebbels
The conclusion from the Bible....
"Then he said to me, "Do not seal up the words of the prophecy contained in this book, because the time is near.
The evildoer must continue to do evil, and the one who is morally filthy must continue to be filthy. The one who is righteous must continue to act righteously, and the one who is holy must continue to be holy."
(Look! I am coming soon, and my reward is with me to pay each one according to what he has done!
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end!)
Blessed are those who wash their robes so they can have access to the tree of life and can enter into the city by the gates. Outside are the dogs and the sorcerers and the sexually immoral, and the murderers, and the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood!
"I, Jesus, have sent my angel to testify to you about these things for the churches. I am the root and the descendant of David, the bright morning star!" And the Spirit and the bride say, "Come!" And let the one who hears say: "Come!" And let the one who is thirsty come; let the one who wants it take the water of life free of charge.
I testify to the one who hears the words of the prophecy contained in this book: If anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book. And if anyone takes away from the words of this book of prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city that are described in this book. The one who testifies to these things says, "Yes, I am coming soon!" Amen! Come, Lord Jesus!
The grace(especially the divine influence upon the heart, and its reflection in the life; including gratitude) of the Lord Jesus be with all." Revelation 22:10-21
But may I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.�Gal 6:14 NET
They were living to themselves; self with its hopes, and promises and dreams, still had hold of them; but the Lord began to fulfill their prayers. They had asked for contrition, and had surrendered for it to be given them at any cost, and He sent them sorrow; they had asked for purity, and He sent them thrilling anguish; they had asked to be meek, and He had broken their hearts; they had asked to be dead to the world, and He slew all their living hopes; they had asked to be made like unto Him, and He placed them in the furnace, sitting by �as a refiner and purifier of silver,� until they should reflect His image; they had asked to lay hold of His cross, and when He had reached it to them it lacerated their hands.
They had asked they knew not what, nor how, but He had taken them at their word, and granted them all their petitions. They were hardly willing to follow Him so far, or to draw so nigh to Him. They had upon them an awe and fear, as Jacob at Bethel, or Eliphaz in the night visions, or as the apostles when they thought that they had seen a spirit, and knew not that it was Jesus. They could almost pray Him to depart from them, or to hide His awfulness. They found it easier to obey than to suffer, to do than to give up, to bear the cross than to hang upon it. But they cannot go back, for they have come too near the unseen cross, and its virtues have pierced too deeply within them. He is fulfilling to them His promise, �And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me� (John 12:32).
But now at last their turn has come. Before, they had only heard of the mystery, but now they feel it. He has fastened on them His look of love, as He did on Mary and Peter, and they can but choose to follow.
Little by little, from time to time, by flitting gleams, the mystery of His cross shines out upon them. They behold Him lifted up, they gaze on the glory which rays from the wounds of His holy passion; and as they gaze they advance, and are changed into His likeness, and His name shines out through them, for He dwells in them. They live alone with Him above, in unspeakable fellowship; willing to lack what others own (and what they might have had), and to be unlike all, so that they are only like Him.
Such, are they in all ages, �who follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth.�
Had they chosen for themselves, or their friends chosen for them, they would have chosen otherwise. They would have been brighter here, but less glorious in His Kingdom. They would have had Lot�s portion, not Abraham�s. If they had halted anywhere�if God had taken off His hand and let them stray back�what would they not have lost? What forfeits in the resurrection?
But He stayed them up, even against themselves. Many a time their foot had well nigh slipped; but He in mercy held them up. Now, even in this life, they know that all He did was done well. It was good to suffer here, that they might reign hereafter; to bear the cross below, for they shall wear the crown above; and that not their will but His was done on them and in them.�Anonymous.
I was encouraged by the Meyer's devotional this morning. It is written from a different "Christianity" than is in the "church" today. A Christianity that believed in, surrendered to, and experienced the indwelling presence of God in this shell of clay, even as the presence of God dwelt in the tabernacle and later in Solomon's Temple.
It is very sad that God did not always reside in the Temple. When the nation disobeyed, the preists disobeyed God's presence was not there. Is it any different then that within those who call themselves by the name of Christ, but live like the world, in the ways of the world?
Isaiah 30
Our Daily Walk by F B Meyer October 26
The Blameless Life
Now may the God of peace himself make you completely holy and may your spirit and soul and body be kept entirely blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. He who calls you is trustworthy, and he will in fact do this. � 1 Thess 5:23-24 NET
He will do it. There is a tone of confidence in these words which bespeaks the unwavering faith of the Apostle in the faithfulness and power of God to do for these early Christian folk what indeed is needed by all of us; first, to be sanctified wholly, and secondly, to be preserved without blame until the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
We can hardly realise how much this meant for men and women reared amid the excesses and evils of those days, when religion was another name for unbridled indulgence. Blamelessness of life, the stainless habit of the soul, self-restraint�these were the attributes of the few whose natures seemed cast in a special mould. And yet how strong the assertion of the Apostle that, in the face of the insurmountable difficulties, the God of Peace would do even as much for them.
We must distinguish between blamelessness and faultlessness. The latter can only be ours when we have passed into the presence of His glory, and are presented faultless before Him with exceeding joy (Jud 1:24). The former, however, is within the reach of each of us, because God has said that He will do it. The Agent of the blameless life is God Himself. None beside could accomplish so marvelous a result, and He does it by condescending to indwell the soul. As His glory filled Solomon�s Temple, so He waits to infill the spirit, soul, and body of those who trust Him.
He will do it as the God of Peace. The mightiest forces are the stillest. Who ever heard the day break, or detected the footfall of Spring? Who thinks of listening for the throb of gravitation, or the thud of the forces that redden the grape, golden the corn, and cover the peaches with bloom? So God works in the hearts of those who belong to Him. When we think we are making no progress, He is most at work. The presence of ozone in the air can only be detected by a faint colour on a piece of litmus-paper, and God�s work in the soul is only apparent as the bloom of perfect love is shown in the life.

An Hour In The Garden
And after he sent the crowds away, he went up the mountain by himself to pray. When evening came, he was there alone.�Matt 14:23 NET
The man Christ Jesus felt the need of perfect solitude�Himself alone, entirely by Himself, alone with Himself. We know how much intercourse with men draws us away from ourselves and exhausts our powers. The man Christ Jesus knew this, too, and felt the need of being by Himself again, of gathering all His powers, of realizing fully His high destiny, His human weakness, His entire dependence on the Father.
How much more does the child of God need this�himself alone with spiritual realities, himself alone with God the Father. If ever there were one who could dispense with special seasons for solitude and fellowship, it was our Lord. But He could not do His work or maintain His fellowship in full power, without His quiet time.
Would God that every servant of His understood and practiced this blessed art, and that the Church knew how to train its children into some sense of this high and holy privilege, that every believer may and must have his time when he is indeed himself alone with God. Oh, the thought to have God all alone to myself, and to know that God has me all alone to Himself! �Andrew Murray
Lamertine speaks in one of his books of a secluded walk in his garden where his mother always spent a certain hour of the day, upon which nobody ever dreamed for a moment of intruding. It was the holy garden of the Lord to her. Poor souls that have no such Beulah land! Seek thy private chamber, Jesus says. It is in the solitude that we catch the mystic notes that issue from the soul of things.
My soul, practice being alone with Christ! It is written that when they were alone He expounded all things to His disciples. Do not wonder at the saying; it is true to thine experience. If thou wouldst understand thyself send the multitude away. Let them go out one by one till thou art left alone with Jesus. � Hast thou ever pictured thyself the one remaining creature in the earth, the one remaining creature in all the starry worlds?
In such a universe thine every thought would be �God and I! God and I!� And yet He is as near to thee as that�as near as if in the boundless spaces there throbbed no heart but His and thine. Practice that solitude, O my soul! Practice the expulsion of the crowd! Practice the stillness of thine own heart! Practice the solemn refrain �God and I! God and I!� Let none interpose between thee and thy wrestling angel! Thou shalt be both condemned and pardoned when thou shalt meet Jesus alone! �George Matheson

God the Heart Opener
About the intimate workings of the Holy Spirit in the human heart there is a highly personal relationship in which no third person can share. The sacred work of redemption was wrought in darkness. No strange eye could see what was taking place when the sins of the world entered the holy soul of Christ that He might die under their weight and thus make �his life a guilt offering� (Isaiah 53:10; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Matthew 27:46).
That there is a deep mystery about the new birth is plainly stated by our Lord.
"The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit." "How can this be?� Nicodemus asked. �You are Israel�s teacher,� said Jesus, �and do you not understand these things? I tell you the truth, we speak of what we know, and we testify to what we have seen, but still you people do not accept our testimony. I have spoken to you of earthly things and you do not believe; how then will you believe if I speak of heavenly things?� (John 3:8-12).
It is bordering on the irreverent to suggest that this sovereign work of the Spirit can be induced at the will of a personal worker by means of a textual recipe. The moment this is attempted, the Spirit withholds His illumination and leaves the worker and the seeker to their own designs. And the tragic consequences are all about us.
All any Christian worker can do is to point the inquirer to �the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world� (1:29). That was all John the Baptist did. He did not attempt to create faith in any of his hearers. The Spirit alone can open the heart, as John well knew. It is our task to arrest the sinner�s attention, give him the message of the cross, urge him to receive it and meet its conditions.
After that the seeker is on his own. The individual is out of the hands of the instructors and helpers and in the hands of the God with whom he has to do.
One of those listening was a woman named Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth from the city of Thyatira, who was a worshiper of God. The Lord opened her heart to respond to Paul's message. Acts 16:14
Let's be extremely careful that, in our zeal, we do not attempt to do what only God can do--that is, to open the hearts of people. Our part is to present the Good News as clearly as we are able, faithfully praying that God will open hearts. Are we so praying?
Is unconditional love a concept of the most recent generations of the modern church?
It must not have been around in the days of Tozer's life!

Audio interview with keith Curle from Radio Nottingham (RealPlayer needed)
Audio interview with Dario Gradi from Radio Stoke (RealPlayer needed)
My players' attitudes were right - new manager Curle
CHAD website
NEW Stags manager Keith Curle was full of praise for his players despite their 3-0 FA Cup Second Round defeat in his first match in charge at Crewe.
Curle said: "We gave it a go and my players' attitudes were right and the commitment was right.
"In the first half I thought we were the better team and we really had a go at them and tried to upset their natural style of play.
"Kenny Lunt kept popping up as a spare man in the first half so I decided to put Dave Jervis on at half time in place of Danny Bacon to go man to man with him, which worked OK to a large degree.
"People have got to realise Crewe are a good team and Dario Gradi has had them together for two or three years.
"I have had just four days to work on absolutely everything from attack to defence, corners and other set pieces.
"I did not want to ask what we usually do for this or that. I wanted everything done my way which they did absolutely spot on.
"There were a lot of positives, particularly first half, and I think we have enough in that dressing room to give us a fighting chance of staying up.
"All I can promise supporters is that every game we go into we will make sure the opposition know they have been in a game."
Dario's Comments On Cup Tie
"We thought it would be different game today and it was. Keith Curle has had a week to work with them and he tightened things up a bit at the back. He added pace to the defence and they were better from their set-plays. They gave it a real go in the first-half but we dominated the second half.
"He changed things in the second half and played with just one up front. We have the defenders here who can cope with that and it allowed us to get our full-backs forward.
"It was a super goal from Ben and he was really determined to get in there and he took it very well. I told him that he would get in there today and he did that for us. He found a lot of space and passed the ball very well.
"I said to the players at half-time that I didn't want us to rue our missed chances and thankfully we didn't. I thought it was over when we scored the second goal because I couldn't see them scoring twice with just one up front.
"I was pleased for Dean Ashton because he worked hard for us. We have been doing some work with Dean and Rob on the training ground from that kind of position and he took it very well."

Here's what we know, so far, about Facebook's recent disclosure that a shadowy Russian firm with ties to the Kremlin created thousands of ads on the social media platform that ran before, during and after the 2016 presidential election:
The ads ''appeared to focus on amplifying divisive social and political messages across the ideological spectrum,'' including race, immigration and gun rights, Facebook said.
The users who purchased the ads were fakes. Attached to assumed identities, their pages were allegedly created by digital guerrilla marketers from Russia hawking information meant to disrupt the American electorate and sway a presidential election.
Some of those ads were pushed out to very specific parts of the country, presumably for maximum political effect. Facebook has identified some 2,000 other ads that may have been of Russian provenance, although, as CNN reported last week, it can't rule out that there might be far more than that.
Here's what we don't know, at least not directly from Facebook:
What all of those ads looked like
What specific information -- or disinformation -- they were spreading
Who or what the accounts pretended to be
How many Americans interacted with the ads or the fake personae
We also don't know what geographical locations the alleged social media saboteurs were targeting (The regular list of swing states and counties? Or the most politically flammable fringes?) Facebook says that more of those ads ran in 2015 than in 2016, but not how many more.
Nor has Facebook reported whether the people who were targeted were from specific demographic or philosophical groups -- all of which means we really don't know the full extent of the duping on Facebook, and maybe Facebook doesn't either.
Facebook says it is working to prevent a repeat. And it was hardly the only platform that Russia is presumed to have used to disrupt the political debate in America; there were others in the mix as well, particularly Twitter, which has divulged even less than Facebook has.
But, in total, there's a stunning lack of public specificity about an alleged foreign campaign to influence our domestic politics. It was an effort that involved ''the American companies that essentially invented the tools of social media and, in this case, did not stop them from being turned into engines of deception and propaganda,'' as The Times's Scott Shane noted in his penetrating investigation earlier this month.
Mr. Shane's report helped fill in some blanks when he unearthed several of the phony accounts, like that of one Melvin Redick, a professed Pennsylvanian. On his Facebook page, Mr. Redick appears to be a loving dad of an adorable little girl, but as it turns out he doesn't actually exist. That account was early to spot and promote DCLeaks, the site that became a receptacle for hacked information about prominent Americans.
And then last week The Daily Beast uncovered a promotion for a supposed ''Citizens before refugees'' rally in Twin Falls, Idaho, in August of 2016. As the independent (and embattled) Russian news organization RBC reported in March, the supposed group behind that rally, SecuredBorders, was the creation of the Internet Research Agency, which is suspected of being behind the Facebook ads in question here.
So a picture starts to emerge. But it's a spotty one, only as good as the journalism that's working so hard to fill the canvas, and the scraps we're getting from law enforcement and the social platforms themselves.
Facebook is cooperating to varying degrees with efforts in Washington to understand how it might have been used by Russian influence agents. As The Wall Street Journal first reported late last week, Facebook handed evidence related to the ad campaign over to the special prosecutor investigating the Russia allegations, Robert S. Mueller III.
When I asked Facebook why it couldn't be more forthcoming with the public, the company responded with a statement saying, ''Due to federal law, and the ongoing investigation into these issues, we are limited as to what we can disclose publicly.''
Facebook is referring to its obligations under the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, the federal law that prohibits the government from unduly spying on our electronic communications.
Facebook, which didn't elaborate, appears to be saying it is legally restricted from the willy-nilly handing-over of information about its users to the government or, for that matter, the public. And it's certainly a challenge for Facebook to decide where the line is between sharing vital details about its use in a plot like election meddling, and exposing private data about its legitimate users.
On Friday, I asked Marc Rotenberg, the president of the Electronic Privacy Information Center, or Epic, an advocacy group, where he stood on the question..
''The best case for that is that the First Amendment protects anonymous speech,'' he said. ''And if the United States government were to try to comprehend the identities of controversial speakers, we'd be up on the front lines saying the government doesn't have the right to do that.''
But in this case, ''We're talking about non-U.S. persons engaging in political speech in U.S. elections, and it's a stretch to extend that kind of protection to this type of activity,'' he said.
Ryan Calo, a law professor at the University of Washington, told me that the electronic communications privacy law did not extend protections to advertisements or posted messages that were readily accessible to the public.
That's not to say that Mr. Mueller's involvement doesn't add to the sensitivity for Facebook. It does. But sooner rather than later Facebook owes it to the public to provide still more detail about the ads. And it owes it to its users to let them know if they have directly interacted with the equivalent of digital spies sent to influence them.
Then there's democracy itself, and the new problems the social platforms are creating for it.
The American electoral system includes a complicated campaign finance regime that was devised to keep Americans informed about who finances the media messages designed to sway them.
The system is imperfect. And it's been badly weakened over the years. But it still requires, for instance, that television stations keep careful logs of the ad time they sell to candidates and political groups around elections, and make them available to the public. It is also illegal for foreign interests to spend money in our campaigns.
The Russian effort was able to elude those laws through social media, where the system has clearly -- and fundamentally -- broken down.
''We now know that foreign interests can run campaign ads -- sham issue ads -- in this country without anyone having any knowledge of who was behind it, and that fundamentally violates a basic concept of campaign finance laws,'' said Fred Wertheimer, a longtime advocate for greater regulation of political spending through his group Democracy21.
Facebook's announcement about the Russian ads prompted calls from Senators Mark Warner of Virginia and Martin Heinrich of New Mexico for a new law requiring that social media ads receive the same regulatory scrutiny as television ads (''I'm Vladimir Putin and I approve this message!'')
As of now, we don't even know the full extent to which the Russian ads violated the current legal requirements. That's something Mr. Mueller should be able to determine. But Facebook and other platforms need to get more information out there publicly, too, so the necessary discussion about potential remedies doesn't have to wait for the Mueller investigation to conclude. Hopefully they will.
This much should be clear: Arguments that sites like Facebook are merely open ''platforms'' -- and not ''media companies'' that make editorial judgments about activity in the digital worlds they created -- fall woefully flat when it comes to meddling in our democracy.
The platforms have become incredibly powerful in a short amount of time. With great power has come great profit, which they are only too happy to embrace; the great responsibility part, not always so much.
''Given the role they played in this election, they now have a major responsibility to help solve this problem,'' Mr. Wertheimer said.
After all, the 2018 midterms are just around the corner.

We took a gander at the lesser endowed Lenovo IdeaTab A2107 earlier this morning, and here we are with a spiffier model – the 9" wonder known as the Lenovo IdeaTab A2109. It might not be as capable as the S2110, but this tablet will still be able to pack quite a punch thanks to its 1.2GHz quad-core Tegra 3 chipset that is accompanied by 1GB RAM. In terms of visual quality, you have a feast for your eyes as the 9" LED display packs in a resolution count of 1280 x 800 pixels, where it is accompanied by a 3-megapixel shooter at the back with a 1.3-megapixel camera in front to capture those vanity shots and duck faces.
Your ears are not forgotten thanks to the inclusion of SRS sound, while ports for a 3.5mm headphone jack make sure you can take your music in a more personal manner without disturbing the general peace through blasting your favorite Justin Bieber songs. Other connectivity options include micro-USB and micro-HDMI, making up this 1.3 pound, Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich powered tablet. We have already spotted the Lenovo IdeaTab A2109 at Best Buy a few days ago for $299 a pop, and the three Benjamins you drop for it will net you 16GB of storage space which can be further augmented by a microSD memory card. Check out the photo gallery of the IdeaTab A2109 right after the jump.

The economic upturn and demographic pressure from Millennials reaching the age at which marriage, family formation and opportunity historically spur home buying finally began to drive purchases.
But what will be important to watch is whether this trend follows the white picket fence suburban ideal of mid-Twentieth Century America or, given the continuing popularity of city living, a more urban-focused apartment-oriented phenomenon. JL
Data indicate that in 2016, the decade-long decline in the homeownership rate reversed. Growth in renter households stalled, and the long-stagnant number of owner households began rising. Millennials hitting the age at which previous generations began buying homes, had put off home-buying due to slow earnings growth, a tepid labor market and student debt. "Rent appreciation was so high during that people would jump into homeownership." Home prices, not rising rents, were the real incentive. Renters were "driven to homeownership by fears homes (were) appreciating so quickly they would be locked out of buying a home."A funny thing happened on the way to the United States becoming a nation of renters: people started buying homes again.New data indicate that in 2016, in defiance of myriad prognostications, the decade-long decline in the homeownership rate abruptly reversed. Once-rapid growth in renter households stalled, and the long-stagnant number of owner-led households began rising.The most recent Housing Vacancies and Homeownership survey shows homeownership rates rose from a low of 63 percent in the second quarter of 2016 to 64.6 in the fourth quarter of 2018, adjusted for seasonality. This move reflects changes in the status of millions of households. The homeownership rate has regained all the ground it lost since 2014.While the change in homeownership since 2016is statistically significant, the figures can be volatile and subject to revision. The first year of the trend has been confirmed by the Census Bureau's most recent American Community Survey. The ACS takes some time to release but, because it is sent to 3.5 million households, provides the most accurate such data available outside of the decennial Census.
What's behind the reversal?It is now apparent demographic pressure had been building since the housing crisis. Millennials were hitting the age at which previous generations began buying homes, but had put off home-buying due to slow earnings growth, a tepid labor market and soaring student loan debt. In 2005, 11.6 percent of adults ages 25 to 34 were living with their parents, Urban institute housing expert Laurie Goodman and her colleagues Jung Choi and Jun Zhu found last year. By 2017, the share of adults in that age group living with their parents had almost doubled, to 22 percent.In 2016, Millennials finally began to surmount the obstacles that sat between them and homeownership. The homeownership rate for those under age 45 had fallen faster than the overall rate since the recession began. But since the 2016 turnaround, homeownership in the under-35 and 35-to-45 age groups has recovered rapidly. (The oldest millennials, born in 1981, are now 38)."Millennials have been on a buying spree the last few years," Zillow Research economist Aaron Terrazas said.Millennials pack considerable demographic punch. They will soon outnumber baby boomers, if they do not already. And as a rule of thumb, aging, marriage and procreation tend to drive home-purchasing decisions as much as purely economic concerns do.
Why was 2016 the turning point?The groundwork was laid the year before — home-buying decisions take time. Prices are one likely culprit. In the middle of 2015, rents nationally rose more than 6 percent from a year earlier — easily their fastest growth since the real estate data experts at Zillow began keeping track. It is one of the few times on record that rents rose faster than home prices."Rent appreciation was so high during that period that it essentially put fire under people's feet to get up and buy," Terrazas said. "People who may have been sitting on the fence would be incentivized to jump into homeownership," he added.In the longer run, home prices, not rising rents, were the real incentive. Zillow data show home prices have consistently risen at several times the pace of inflation since 2013.Some renters were probably "driven to homeownership by fears that with homes appreciating so quickly that they would be locked out of buying a home in their desired area," Terrazas saidThey may have also feared the end of easy money. In December 2015, the Federal Reserve lifted its interest-rate target off zero for the first time in almost a decade. The move had been expected for quite some time.Back then, the Fed forecast rates would be about 3.4 percent by the end of 2018. They were off by an entire percentage point, but we did not know that at the time."Maybe people thought 'interest rates could go up, I should lock in now,' " Goodman said.By the end of 2015, the scars of the recession were beginning to fade. The number of new properties in the foreclosure process had peaked seven years earlier, in 2008. Seven yearsis also how long it takes for foreclosures to roll off your credit score. Older buyers who had been burned by the housing bubble would have had their first real opportunity to reenter the housing market.Many would also have had the means to do so. Adjusted for inflation, Labor Department figures show average hourly earnings in 2015 rose at their fastest annual rate since 2009. For the first time since the recovery's early days, the average American's earnings were growing substantially faster than her costs.By late 2015, the unemployment rate hit 5.0 percent, exactly half of its post-recession peak and just over a percentage point higher than the 3.8 percent rate recorded in February 2019.When there's very low unemployment, when there's been slow but steady wage growth, that tends to make households confident in their ability to make what will probably be their largest investment of their life," said Ralph McLaughlin, whose blog post inspired this piece. McLaughlin is an economist at the real estate data outfit CoreLogic.The reversal seems to be driven by the sales of single-family homes that had previously been rented out, McLaughlin said. The homes could have been rented out by their owners or one of the investment outfits that snapped up properties in the wake of the Great Recession.The number of single-family homes occupied by renters peaked in 2016 and fell in 2017, according to the ACS.

Catha Edulis: Personal and social consequences
Last modified: Thursday, 25. December 2008 - 9:42 am
Although immediate and severe medical problems are thought to be infrequent, khat use often leads to health problems. Reducing khat consumption, according to researchers, would relieve several million people, mostly men, of a costly and potentially addictive habit. It would also make available scarce arable land and irrigation water for other crops. Government figures show that khat consumes 75% of Yemen's irrigation capabilities.
Khat chewers may cause harm to their families due to negligence, dissipation of the family income, and inappropriate behavior. In Yemen, even poor families admit to spending at least 50% of their income on khat.
Overall, women and children seem to be suffering most from khat consumption. Many men spend so much money on khat that their families go hungry and remain in poverty. Several countries concerned by the khat problem, such as Yemen, have taken steps to restrict its use.

Morgan Sindall plc appointed to build £27.5 million landmark building for the University of Huddersfield
Morgan Sindall plc has been appointed by the University of Huddersfield to build its new landmark teaching facility in Huddersfield town centre.
The 7,500 square metre, six-storey building will be developed in a prime campus location opposite the Shorehead roundabout between Queensgate and Wakefield Road in the town.
The £27.5 million building will provide a new home for the university's Law School and the School of Music, Humanities and Media. It will also link into the university's Student Central Building which was completed in January 2014, at a cost of £22.5 million.
The building has been designed to complement existing buildings within the university including both Student Central and the adjacent Creative Arts Building.
Chris Brown, operations director at Morgan Sindall's Leeds office, said: "This is a key building for both the university and the town. It is a fantastic project to be involved with and our appointment builds on the existing relationship we have with the University of Huddersfield.
"We very much look forward to getting on site and creating this amazing building which will mark Huddersfield out as a forward-thinking town."
Vice-Chancellor, Professor Bob Cryan said: "We are delighted to be working with Morgan Sindall on the latest major development to our campus. The University is committed to ensuring that we provide the best possible environment for the growing number of students who choose to study here and contribute so positively to the local economy. We are also committed to our town, and are very pleased to be able to work with local businesses on a building that will take such a prominent place in the Huddersfield landscape."
Upon completion, by the beginning of 2017, the building will provide new teaching space including large tiered lecture theatres.
The eye-catching building, which will provide a new gateway building to both the university and the town centre was granted planning consent by Kirklees Council in April 2015.

Janet Williamson graduated from UCLA majoring in painting in the heady late 1960's, studying under master artists David Hockney and Richard Diebenkorn. From 1969 to 1974, she managed tours and created LP covers for the seminal 60's British group The Incredible String Band. Following the ISB, she managed and booked ISB co-founder Robin Williamson; produced concerts in London, Edinburgh and Los Angeles; briefly managed Ravi Shankar's non-profit Music Circle; and was an agent with The Moss Agency for a few years, booking (among others) Chick Corea and Charlie Haden before starting her own agency.
In 2001, Los Angeles, she founded the Janet Williamson Music Agency. Her roster reflects her eclectic musical, cultural and art background and interest in fusion of many kinds. It is well known that art — and in particular music — can create changes for the better. It is her great pleasure to book artists who join many others around the world in doing just that.

Conservative News & Commentary
When the Founders Fathers passed our Constitution in 1787, the idea of a representative republic was a grand idea — an experiment — as no one in power had ever executed such a distributive model for governance. At the end of the constitutional convention, Ben Franklin answered the question about what form of government the convention had created by stating, "A Republic, if you can keep it."
Franklin, as well as the others in attendance, knew this idea of a representative republic would only work as long as regular citizens served as our representatives. Our first president George Washington set the example of returning to private life after only two terms as President. Washington said when being asked to run for a third term, "I had rather be in my grave than in my present situation, I had rather be on my farm than be emperor of the world; and yet they charge me with wanting to be a king."
During the past week, A.Smith wrote several articles about how to make Klamath County a better community. He has told me he has many, many more ideas, "My ways to improve this county are nearly endless. I can always think of some new and helpful way government can make life better and easier for Klamath County residents." A.Smith claims he has ideas to create a special levy for:
- Park Beautification for only $0.05/$1,000 — residents always enjoy beautiful parks
- Public Safety for only $0.25/$1,000 — to ensure jails are always open keeping criminals locked up
- County Trapper for only $0.05/$1,000 — to ensure wolves and coyotes don't negatively effect livestock. Maybe even two or three trappers instead of just one for only $0.10/$,1000
- County Lunch Service for only $0.07/$1,000— Free Lunches on Wednesday provided by the county for those who can't afford a decent meal and are starving
- County Detox Center for only $0.15/$1,000 — so we don't use jail space to sober up people drunk or high
- County School Improvement for only $1.50/$1,000 — to rebuild/rennovate all county school buildings over 50 years old
- Senior Center Expansion for only $0.12/$1,000 — to expand the senior center program to have satillite locations throughout the county, not just in Klamath Falls.
- Economic Development Upgrade for only $0.58/$1,000 — to better fund and expand KCEDA, the Klamath County Chamber of Commerce, and SCCOED.
Like he said, his list is nearly endless (and yes, he has many, many more ideas). If you think all of these ideas, including the four he wrote about previous (County Coffee Shops, County Library, County Museum, County Daycare Centers, County Airport), are wonderful then you also think adding $4.44/$1,000 to existing taxes is also a fine idea. Of course no one would ever propose a $4.44 levy in Klamath. That would never pass. So the trick is to offer one, maybe two at a time and over time the public is gullible enough to pass them, especially if it makes the community better or helps the poor and the children.
Klamath County was dealt a serious economic blow on June 5th, as SkyWest stopped service to the newly renamed Crater Lake - Klamath Regional Airport (aka Klamath Falls Airport). Now the only way to fly into Klamath County is via a private charter or through the Rogue Valley Airport and then catch a shuttle/rent-a-car to Klamath. Without direct commercial air service to Klamath County, it makes doing business in and with Klamath businesses much more difficult. Another way to state this is to say many companies won't do business with Klamath County enterprises because there is no longer any direct commercial air service.
The Crater Lake - Klamath Regional Airport is owned and operated by the City of Klamath Falls. However, the county government derives benefits such as the tourism tax on hotel stays, as well as other taxes gleaned through increased commerce in the county. That said, the county does not current contribute any operational funding or services to the airport.
Since commerce and connectivity to the outside world is vital to Klamath County's economy and livability, we think that should change. A special tax levy of just $0.08/$1,000 could help raise funds to lure another commercial airline to service Klamath Falls (and the surrounding county). With this new funding in place we can be assured that a new airline won't just come or go based on how the economy is doing. Instead direct air service to Klamath County would be stable, predictable and consistent, once and for all.
America has changed over the past 60 years. For the most part, gone are the days of the traditional two-parent family, where one parent stayed at home to manage household affairs and the other earned a living. Today's modern world allows for the freedom of single-parent families without shame.
But with this modern family arises a new dilemma — what do to with the children while the parent goes to work? Fortunately the government has provided a solution — but only half a solution. Currently the county government provides family financial assistance for food through WIC (Women, Infants and Children Nutrition Program) and through other welfare programs. But what about those parents who wish to work?
This is where our county government could step up to the plate and do some real good in our community by providing County Daycare Centers. Since our county is so larger, there should be a County Daycare Center in every municipality so all parents have easy access. In addition, these County Daycare Centers should be housed in new county buildings, because we can't afford for our children to stay in older, possibly mold- or asbestos-infected buildings. Plus the new construction of each of these daycare centers would mean more jobs to our local economy. Each County Daycare Center would be fully staffed with state-certified professionals, so our children would only receive the best care and learning experience possible.
Museums are known around the world as not just a place to learn about history, but as a place to sit down and think, to reflect on those who came before and a place to relax in peace and quiet. Museums are where ideas from previous generations are talked about and where a community gets in touch with itself. Matter of fact the hallmark of a thriving community is that good museums are in its midst.
Therefore because of all the benefits museums bring to a community we can be thankful that we have a special taxing district for our county museum system. At $0.05/$1,000 the county provides us several fantastic museums in Klamath County.
To make the county museum experience accessible to all, the county museums system usually charges slightly below the market rate for admission. Most school children get in for free, and discount tours are often available to groups. Again, the idea is for no one to be excluded from the cultural and educational benefits of museums — especially the poor and under privileged.
Libraries are known around the world as not just a place to find a good book, but as a place to sit down and catch up with a friend, for small business owners to meet with customers and a great place to cool off or heat up while relaxing in peace and quiet. Libraries are for students to do homework and for business people to work while on the road in between appointments. Libraries are where new ideas are talked about and where a community truly comes together. Matter of fact the hallmark of a thriving community is that good libraries are in its midst.
Therefore because of all the benefits libraries bring to a community we can be thankful that we have a special taxing district for our county library system. At $0.49/$1,000 the county provides us two fantastic libraries in Klamath Falls and then nine more satellite libraries in Bly, Bonanza, Chemult, Chiloquin, Gilchrist, Keno, Malin, Merrill and Sprague River.
To make the county library experience accessible to all, library books are free for anyone to borrow. Some specialty items and electronic versions may carry a small fee. Again, the idea is for no one to be excluded from the cultural and educational benefits of libraries — especially the poor and under privileged. There is a special children's section and use of computers with full access to any internet content is also free.
Coffee shops are known around the world as not just a place to grab a good cup of a Joe, but as a place to sit down and catch up with a friend, for small business owners to strike deals with new customers and a great place to chill while listening to some eclectic music. Coffee shops are for students to do homework and for business people to work while on the road in between appointments. Coffee shops are where new ideas are talked about and where a community truly comes together. Matter of fact the hallmark of a thriving community is that good coffee shops are in its midst.
Therefore because of all the benefits coffee shops bring to a community what if one day the County Commissioners, City Council and other community leaders decided to put forth a ballot measure for a new coffee shop taxing district? For only $0.49/$1,000 the county could provide three fantastic coffee shops in Klamath Falls (maybe one that was even open 24-hours a day) and then six more satellite coffee shops in Malin, Merrill, Keno, Bonanza, Chiloquin and Gilchrist.
To make the coffee shop experience accessible to all, a basic cup of coffee (and refills) would be free. All specialty coffee drinks would only be $1.00, and food items would top out at $2.50. Again, the idea is for no one to be excluded from the cultural and educational benefits of coffee shops — especially the poor and under privileged. Children (26 years old and under) would be allowed to have food for free, and instead of free coffee could get a nice cup of hot cocoa (with parental approval of course).
Wednesday morning at Klamath Community College a group of about 30 government officials and state-wide bureaucrats gathered to congratulate each other for signing a non-binding agreement to launch the Klamath IDEA project. Klamath IDEA stands for Inspire Development – Energize Acceleration. According the Klamath County Chamber of Commerce's website, the big idea (pun intended) is to
"...focus local, regional, and statewide resources on the creation of a business incubator and accelerator in Klamath County. The IDEA will promote, support, consult, and provide business and marketing advice to local entrepreneurs in the development of start-up and business expansion opportunities in Klamath County."
If you've surfed the web anytime since January, you were bound to see a Greg Walden ad. The picture above shows two ads. The one of the left is from February, which has now been replaced with the ad on the right. Notice any difference?
The change is subtle, but that is exactly how career politicians work. They slowly shift from one position to another all the while claiming to have your best interest at heart. But do they? Does he? Let's examine the change and then you can decide for yourself.
Political signs, like Spring tulips, are dotting the basin floor. One of those signs is "Yes - Klamath Museums". Ballot Measure 18-95 will add a mere $0.05/$1,000 of assessed value to your property taxes. For that tax you get a Klamath County Museum, Fort Klamath and the Baldwin Hotel. In addition, you get free admission to the museum for school children and other children's programs.
Sounds like a bargain right? Actually, it is socialism in full bloom.
A few/minority of people who have a vested interest in keeping these enterprises open are asking for everyone else to pay for their wish. Let me ask, how many times in the last three years were you at any of these venues? If none, then you should ask for a refund.

At RED Travel México we are confronting the COVID-19 global pandemic with solidarity, hope for the future and efforts to help the most vulnerable among us. While at the moment we can't physically travel, follow us via our blog, Instagram, or facebook and youtube. We will be posting updates on our efforts to support families and how you can help. And from time to time we'll post some virtual getaways, to remind us of all the incredible experiences and to inspire us to look to the future.
Whale Sharks and Hidden Beaches
Our family got a private tour to snorkel with the whale sharks and go to the beaches of Balandra Bay. Our tour guide met us outside and walked us to the boat right on time. She was super knowledgeable, friendly, and made us feel comfortable the whole time. The whale shark experience was unforgettable and amazing. The ride to the beach was a nice break from all the snorkeling and we had a great lunch prepared for us right on the beach. We went for a hike up to the top of the beaches which had a beautiful view. We even got to stop and see the sea lions on our way back. Amazing experience, amazing people, would do this again in a heartbeat. Thank you RED for the best memories on our family vacation.
Best Quality & Customer Service
Our experience with RED was amazing, the tour started on time and our guide was very knowledgeable and very good with everyone on the boat. The Espiritu Island tour is very complete as they take you to several places to actually get to know the island before arriving with the Sea Lions. We were handed our equipment which was in great shape and had plenty of time to swim with the Sea Lions. Afterwards we had lunch on private beach and enjoyed a delicious ceviche. Another plus side is the boat actually has a bathroom which comes handy on a full day tour. If you are looking for the very best, look no more, you'll find it with them!

Authentic, engaging and fun eco-tourism!
We found RED Travel based on their conservation and community development efforts, and we were thrilled to see how they brought this to life through their excursions. Having traveled to other parts of the world where the guides vary in quality (and experience with nature), we were delighted to receive both an amazing adventure at sea chock full of marine life as well as an environmental education through the expert guides at RED Travel. I highly recommend this tour company and will certainly book them again on our next trip to the Baja.
Shauna J
Must do in Baja
This was everything I expected and more…our captain Tony was great at finding whalesharks, and our guide Eric gets top marks- he helped me keep up when I couldn't swim fast enough to keep up, and was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Can't say enough about how fantastic the whole experience was.
