Common Risk Areas within Nonprofits Board The board is the ultimate authority in the nonprofit and ultimately will be held accountable for all actions taken by the nonprofit. Because the board is the entity entrusted with the governance of the nonprofit, the focus of the risk assessment questions and implementation activities centers on defining written standards for behavior and procedures within the board setting. Often the absence of written standards for behavior and procedures leads to practices that could incur liability for the board as a governance entity.
For reimbursement of expenses? Are these guidelines enforced? Are senior management or board members permitted to evade these guidelines? • Does the nonprofit have a document preservation policy that enables documents to be stored/archived in a user-friendly fashion? Does the nonprofit have a policy that prohibits the destruction of documents during an investigation or inquiry by regulators? • Does the nonprofit produce reports, proposals, or other materials by specified deadlines? • Does the nonprofit have eligibility requirements?
Automobile policies). • Modification is the method that considers how the features of a risk can be changed to reduce the risk’s potential for frequency or severity. This option is the way most risks are generally treated. The nonprofit considers ways in which the potential for damage from a risk can be reduced by implementing new procedures, protocols, or better training. • The transfer option is the means by which the financial aspects of the risk are transferred. This is done in a number of ways, the most common method being the purchase of insurance.

Plague has played a major role in world history. Some evidence exists that a plague pandemic took place about 2,000 years ago, but the first recorded pandemic of plague occurred in A.D. 542 in Egypt and Ethiopia. This pandemic killed 100 million people.
The next great plague pandemic occurred in the fourteenth century in Europe, Central Asia, the North East, India, and China. In this pandemic, trading ships from China carried infected rats to Europe. About 25 million people in Europe alone died from plague; some experts estimate that this number constitutes a third of the European population. Because so many people died, The Plague of 1665. Mary Evans Picture Library/Photo Researchers, Inc. Reproduced by permission. the plague had a major impact on the economy and political structure of Europe. The scarcity of workers led to a scarcity of food; workers, previously given little compensation for their labors, began to demand higher wages. Some historians feel that the unrest of workers and the middle class in Europe that culminated in the beheading of King Charles I in England in the seventeenth century and the beheading of Louis XVI in France in the eighteenth century had its roots in the economic aftermath of the fourteenth plague pandemic.
The third plague pandemic began in Burma in 1894; from there, the plague spread to China and through Hong Kong to North America. One hundred million people in India died from plague over a period of 20 years. During this pandemic, the United States saw its first case of plague in 1900 in San Francisco. In 1907, 167 cases of plague in San Francisco were recorded. As a result of the pandemic, rats and other wild rodents in the areas around San Francisco became reservoirs of Yersinia pestis. Today, isolated cases of plague are still found in Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas. The majority of cases worldwide (90%) occur in Southeast Asia: Burma, South Vietnam, Nepal, and Indonesia. Brazil also has a high number of plague cases. A recent outbreak in Surat, India, in 1994, killed 56 people and caused widespread panic.

Soft matter encompasses a broad swath of materials, including liquids, polymers, gels, foam and, most importantly, biomolecules. At the heart of soft materials, governing their overall properties and capabilities, are the interactions of nano-sized components.
Observing the dynamics behind these interactions is critical to understanding key biological processes, such as protein crystallization and metabolism, and could help accelerate the development of important new technologies, such as artificial photosynthesis or high-efficiency photovoltaic cells.
Observing these dynamics at sufficient resolution has been a major challenge, but this challenge is now being met with a new non-invasive nanoscale imaging technique that goes by the acronym of CLAIRE.
Ginsberg holds appointments with Berkeley Lab’s Physical Biosciences Division and its Materials Sciences Division, as well as UC Berkeley’s departments of chemistry and physics. She is also a member of the Kavli Energy NanoScience Institute (Kavli-ENSI) at Berkeley.
She and her research group recently demonstrated CLAIRE’s imaging capabilities by applying the technique to aluminum nanostructures and polymer films that could not have been directly imaged with electron microscopy.
CLAIRE works by essentially combining the best attributes of optical and scanning electron microscopy into a single imaging platform.
Scanning electron microscopes use beams of electrons rather than light for illumination and magnification. With much shorter wavelengths than photons of visible light, electron beams can be used to observe objects hundreds of times smaller than those that can be resolved with an optical microscope.
However, these electron beams destroy most forms of soft matter and are incapable of spectrally specific molecular excitation.
Ginsberg and her colleagues get around these problems by employing a process called “cathodoluminescence,” in which an ultrathin scintillating film, about 20 nanometers thick, composed of cerium-doped yttrium aluminum perovskite, is inserted between the electron beam and the sample.
When the scintillating film is excited by a low-energy electron beam (about 1 KeV), it emits energy that is transferred to the sample, causing the sample to radiate. This luminescence is recorded and correlated to the electron beam position to form an image that is not restricted by the optical diffraction limit.
Developing the scintillating film and integrating it into a microchip imaging device was an enormous undertaking, Ginsberg says, and she credits the “talent and dedication” of her research group for the success.
She also gives much credit to the staff and capabilities of the Molecular Foundry, a DOE Office of Science User Facility, where the CLAIRE imaging demonstration was carried out.

by Ashley September 12, 2017 September 12, 2017 Leave a Comment on September Soup Month… continues!
The September soup saga continues!
I was going through my categories on the blog, and realized my soup category was lacking in recipes. Which then I realized would be easy to beef up, since this is the month I spend making soups every weekend to fill up my freezer. Soup is great for lunches, or dinner on a whim when you don’t have time to cook on a weeknight. Reheat with some delicious fresh bread, or a sandwich, and you’ve got yourself a hearty meal.
Last weekend I noticed all the root vegetables and different types of squash are available. Squash is one of my favourite veggies, hands down. Roast it in the oven with some olive oil and cinnamon, and it’s like candy. Yum.
I am seriously obsessed with roasting all vegetables. I know I’ve mentioned it a million times before, but it’s pretty much the only way I eat my veggies at dinner. The only one I wasn’t crazy about was roasted broccoli. I’ll keep that one for the steamer, or better yet, raw.
This soup is super rich. It’s got a bit of a kick, thanks to the smoked paprika and red pepper flakes. But the red pepper flakes are totally optional. I decided to pop some leeks in this one, as I love them, but I really don’t use them as much as I’d like to. They add such great flavour to soup, and are a good replacement for onions if you don’t like them.
I’m pretty sure that head of cauliflower weighed 5 lbs. I actually only ended up using half of it for the soup, because it was so big. So realistically, for this recipe, you’ll only need a small head of cauliflower.
There aren’t many dishes that I make without garlic. I added garlic cloves in with the carrots and cauliflower, because roasted garlic has so much flavour, and adds a sweetness to the soup.
So, this is where I kind of goofed. I took pictures up until this point, then after that there isn’t anymore until I actually poured the bowl of soup for presentation purposes. I definitely got ahead of myself. That’s what happens when you’re trying to do a million things at once. There’s only so much multi-tasking one can do! I’m pretty sure I had two soups on the go at this point, I’m surprised I didn’t get my ingredients mixed up in the process!
But don’t worry… the recipe itself is in full detail, and I made sure not to miss any steps.
That’s one thing I find about blogging, I get all these ideas in my head for recipes that I want to share, then I end up not being able to decide what I want to post about, sometimes I miss pictures, or I don’t like the way some of the photos turned out, or I just plain run out of time to post it all. Life is so busy, and plans are always taking a turn. But, that’s is adulting. Boo for responsibilities. If only I could just stay home, blog and cook up a storm day in and out, while I drink Prosecco. That would be ideal really.
I won’t carry this post on for much longer, except to show you the end result of this super yummy soup. I will say, next week I’ll be posting another soup recipe, but I won’t be blogging about it. Only because that gets boring, and I need to move on to other topics. Such as pumpkin season, apple stuffed chicken breasts… stay tuned. New exciting things are coming!
Until then, enjoy the final result in pictures for this delicious soup.
This soup is deliciously rich and thick, with a touch of sweetness from the roasted carrots. So flavourful, it's perfect for a chilly, fall day.
Place the carrots, garlic cloves and cauliflower on a large baking sheet. (You can use two if there's not enough room).
Toss the vegetables in the smoked paprika and olive oil, and place in the oven to roast for 20 minutes. Tossing halfway through. Vegetables will be done when they are nice and golden.
Place a large pot on the stove, and set to medium heat. Add the butter and leeks, and saute until the leeks are soft. About 5 minutes. Add salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes.
Remove the vegetables from the oven when they are done roasting. Reserve a handful of roasted cauliflower, and add the rest to the pot with the leeks. Add in the vegetable broth, and place a lid on the pot. Bring to a simmer, and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Remove the soup from the heat, and use a hand blender to puree the soup until it is nice and smooth. You can also use a regular blender, just puree in batches. Add in the reserved cauliflower, stir and serve!
*If the soup is too thick, slowly add more broth or water until you reach desired consistency.

I had a crazy idea the other day. Probably because spring is coming early and my body is gearing up for activity and I suddenly have energy I haven’t had for a couple of months.
But it wasn’t the first time I’d had a semblance of this idea. I’m talking about journaling our family’s life via video on a daily basis.
The idea of posting one video per day isn’t new to my brain. I’ve thought about – and tried – doing it several times. But it never stuck.
I was having a hard time finding topics that other people seemed as interested in as I am.
Then, some time last year, my friend who reads this blog told me that a former neighbor of ours in the suburb laughingly suggested that we do a reality show about living in a tiny house and post it to YouTube.
Which brings me to the other day. B was looking through the Guinness Book of World Records he recently received as a gift, and I noticed that there was a section about YouTube. Being a YouTuber myself, I got curious and glanced through the two pages. I learned two things: first, I am totally clueless about mainstream culture (shock). The only artist I’d heard of on that page was Josh Groban (I guess not even I can miss hearing his name).
Second, some dude named Charles Trippy has uploaded one video every single day since some time in 2009. He just videos his life. And has tens of thousands of views per video.
I felt both inspired and challenged. And I decided to do it.
I had at one point considered doing a podcast by that name, but I already have many more subscribers on YouTube that I could probably ever hope to have for a podcast. Besides, having experience with both, I know it’s a lot simpler to make a video than to record and put together a podcast.
Will I do an episode every day? Well, I’m not going for any records (and I’d probably have to upload three or four a day for a couple of years to catch up with Charles), but I plan to aim for that. No commitments, though. Life happens. And I’m not sure I could make our family life appear all that interesting every single day.
If you’re interested in following the show, be sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel.
Now you might be wondering whether I’ll be posting those episodes on this blog.
However, I do have another blog already set up where I used to post personal stuff, especially about my gardening journey. And even though I haven’t posted to that blog in a lo-ong time, I’m still getting visitors.
So if you’re interested in following the exciting life of Jerry, Emily, and Benjamin in video form, I’ll meet you at my emilyhomesteader blog.

Dermatophyte(greek term Derma; skin, phyte meaning plant) is a batch of fungal organisms that mostly influence the keratinized coat of skin, nails and scalp. They infect that area causing ringworm and related diseases.
Three category of fungi which is responsible for dermatophytic diseases.
Dermatophyte (dermatophytosis, or dermatomycosis) can develop by exposure with infected humans (anthrophilic), animals (zoophilic) or direct contact with contaminated soil (geophilic).
Hyperpigmentation or redness may appear.
Skin patches which are redder on the surfaces and may appear similar to a ring.
Thick crusts developing on the affected areas.
Tinea pedis or commonly known as athlete’s foot is a common fungal infection that usually occurs on toes. It spread from the direct contact with the infected person, wearing tight fitting shoes and socks, sharing towels or clothes form the affected person. Fungi grows in damp and humid environment so you may get toe nail fungus (tinea pedis) by walking barefoot around swimming pools and lockers.
Dermatophyte is responsible for nail fungus or medically known as tinea unguium or onychomycosis . They are caused by the over growth of fungi infection in or under the nails and if not treated it can result in permanent nail loss.
Nail fungus is commonly spread by contact with infected person, animal or soil, moreover it can be developed by using poorly sanitized tools (filers, nail clippers etc). walking barefoot in communal pools, gyms or wet places. History of fungal infections such as athelete’s foot, ringworms. Symptoms may include discolored, brittle or thickened nails.
Tinea capitis (ringworm or the scalp or hair) is the caused by fungal infection (dermatophyte). It can cause tiny patches of itchy and scaly skin. Symptoms include painful scalp, brittle or weakened hair, bald patches of hair. Tinea capitis is mostly infected by contact with poorly sanitized brushes and combs,wearing hats or cover your head with scarf in humid weather. Poor hygiene contribute in the development of scalp fungus.
Tinea manuum usually affect the hands. Tinea refers to ringworm or dermatophyte and manuum to hands. The affected area may be Itchy, red and scaly. The skin may peel and flake it may spread to the other parts of the hands( fingers, nails,palm).
It mostly caused by direct contact with containmated surface or soil. playing sports that involve contact with people. Continuous sweating may also contribute in development of tinea manuum.

Fractal plying seems to be everywhere I look in the spinning world. And for good reason- it’s an interesting way to work with color that adds a bit of spontaneity and surprise to the look of the finished product. I’ve been excitedly waiting for the right moment to spin up the 50/50 Merino Silk top from Corgi Hill Farm, and this seemed to be it.
Ben from Schacht Spindle Blog has a wonderful explanation of fractal spinning here. It’s really fairly straightforward for a 2-ply yarn: Take roving, split in half down the middle. Set aside one 1/2 portion, take the other 1/2 portion and split it into quarters.
The 1/2 portion gets spun from end to end into a single, creating long color changes. The quarter portions get spun end to end one after another into one long single with four repeats of shorter color changes. See? Barely any math at all!
The key to keeping things fractal is always spinning from the same direction. Say one end of your roving is red and one is blue. If you start to spin one portion of roving from the red end, you will also start every other portion of roving from the red end as well.
Lovely right? Except I’m working with a drop spindle, which presents unique problems. There’s simply no way I am going to fit 2 oz of laceweight single ply on a 5/8 oz drop spindle, which means that my two portions of fiber can’t be spun or plied as uninterrupted singles. Since most descriptions of fractal plying are on spinning wheels, this problem isn’t mentioned much – you load your 1/2 portion onto a bobbin and your 4 1/8 portions onto a different bobbin – easy. Not so with the spindle – 21 g of fiber loaded on was pushing it.
The only other reference to fractal plying with a drop spindle I have seen so far is the Spinning for Stripes series of posts from “Mom” at Simply Notable. After some comment-area sleuthing, I discovered that Mom using felted joining on her singles to get around this problem.
I am way too uptight and control-freaky for that, plus my attempts at felted joins never seem to hold up (especially not in this case, since my fiber is half silk!). I was going to have to spin separate skeins.
My solution? Spin one of my quarter portions from end to end – load onto a toilet paper roll, and weigh it out (subtracting the weight of the cardboard roll). This portion weighed out to 17 grams.
The short repeat ply is up front (labeled as 1/4 – 17 g) and the longer repeat is at the back.
Take the 1/2 portion (the roving that is half of the original) and weigh out the first 17 grams, taking care to start at the correct end, and separate the length (as you would to grab a piece – not down the middle). Spin up this 17 grams and load it onto a toilet paper roll. Once plied together with the 17 grams of 1/4 portion, this will be Skein #1.
This first part worked awesomely, producing a perfectly matched pair of plies to make into a yarn.
The first two singles plied together to form the first skein of fractal yarn.
The moment I measured out 21 grams for the next skein, I knew there would be a problem: Due to my imprecise splitting of the roving, my main roving section was not going to measure up to all my 1/4 portions. I was going to have over 10 grams of leftover singles. Disappointing.
Well, next time I will weigh out my roving as I’m splitting it, and hopefully that will help. As for the leftover singles, I will just ply them differently. Carrying on!
The weighing strategy worked well, at least, for making sure my plies were nearly the same length – the yardage for #2 was not perfectly matched like for #1, but it was very close.
I couldn’t resist posting pictures, even though I am still currently working on producing skein #3. I did mess around with chain/Navajo plying some of the extra fiber, for comparing and contrasting and such.
Lastly I’d like to add that since my fiber was dyed in a repeating colorway, it’s not really vital to the look of the future FO that I carefully number my skeins – because each skein has a very similar look. However, were I working with a fiber dyed in a gradient colorway the order in which I worked up my skeins would matter a lot more because each skein would contain a long color repeat ply that was different than the other skeins. Now, more pictures.
I dubbed this yarn “Bag of Jewels” because of the gemstone colors and the rich sheen the silk adds to the finished product. I am excited to knit something with it, but the work involved with spinning it in the first place is definitely an accomplishment in its own right!
EDIT 9/8/15 – If you’d like a more in-depth look on how to choose rovings for fractal spinning, here’s a great article (as always) from Knitty.
EDIT 6/7/16 – I ended up crocheting with this fractal ply yarn, if you’re curious to see how fractal ply measures up to being crocheted, you can see the piece featuring this yarn here. As usual with variegated yarns, crocheted pieces muddle the colors more, but it did turn out lovely all the same. AND I was able to make a knit headband to match.
Gorgeous! Thank you for the very clear tutorial, too.
Unfortunately I don’t… I’m almost entirely hopeless when it comes to the technical aspects running this website and rely on WordPress to do most of the work for me, lol!

Great location and the breakfast has been improved dramatically. Wifi is still a bit erratic and management does seem reluctant to keep noisy guests in line, especially those swimming late at night! That said the swimming pool is great. Nice room with good amenities although room lighting is very poor if you want to read in the evenings, unless you bring your own head lamps which we do!
Hotel was amazing I was very impressed with the toilet operation and the room was incredible.
We asked for extra towels but were asked to return towels to exchange. Note to staff: Women with hair require more than one towel each.
Overall a pretty good stay in a fantastic location. Staff were great too. Probably pushing it for 4 stars as the rooms were pretty small and the bed (not a real double) was hard and was two beds that could be configured into one. En-suite was looking tired and again was small. Breakfast was ok but the omelettes were lovely. We had a Lagoon access room which was a good option and the pool was nice. The best things about the hotel is the location and the staff.

Maybe, maybe not. I know a number of people who have gone from iOS to Android or the reverse and they’ve all eventually been comfortable with their new environment.
My experience with iPhones is limited to briefly using those belonging to friends to take a photo or check a web page or something. My sense of it is that, aside from the obvious OS differences, they’re pretty similar to my various Samsung Galaxy S-whatevers of the same generation over the years. At one time I was a Motorola fan, but after getting a bad one I switched to Samsung – and when Samsung inevitably does something I dislike I expect I’ll move on to something else. For me, that freedom to change hardware is more important that the actual OS.
I guess I’ll have to decide based on “practical loss” vs “the principle of the thing.” I will say, though, that while I was thinking of upgrading my three year old MacBook Pro, I don’t feel like giving more money to Apple anymore until they resolve this.

One of my most enduring memories of my cruise aboard the Charley P. took place in Norfolk. We had just returned from a Med cruise and I was due to get out in a couple of days. I had already been accepted for duty in the Peace Corps. When I returned to the ship about 1800hrs I was informed that I would not be allowed to go ashore again! Meanwhile the SP's were going from bar to bar downtown dragging sailors out and into the paddy wagons. They were grabbing anybody with an ID card and hauling them to our destroyers. We ended up around midnight with about 60 guys that had no idea what the hell was going on. Many of them were quite drunk. None had been give a rack. Of course, none had any spare clothing. Some of them were in civvies. We took off around midnight, again with no idea of what was happening or where the heck we were going.
At some time (I think it was the next morning) the CO came up on the IC and apologised for not knowing anything. He still did not have clear orders! We eventually picked up some auxilliaries (I think it was a tanker and an ammo ship) coming out of Moorhead City, NC and escorted them to the Cuban AO. By the time we got there the blockade was already established and the tanker and ammo ship replenished everybody. The skipper was nice enough to keep us all informed as he received info and by the time we got to the hot zone we were all pretty sure that we were about 10 minutes from war.
President Kennedy had extended all hands for the duration so I was over my enlistment. But after it all died down I was high-lined to a tanker and rode that into Jacksonville, FL. After a month or so of Shore Patrol duty I was finally released. I joined the Peace Corp in January and spent 2 years in India as an electronics instructor at the Punjab Polytechnic Institute in Nilokheri, Punjab, India.

Can animals learn and plan without a concept of time?
Experiments show that animals may not have any concept of the past or future.
Human beings have two important abilities to help us understand time: We are able to remember a sequence of events and we are able to anticipate future needs or events. Studies show that animals may have these abilities -- but to a lesser extent.
Scientists have tested animals' working memories (short-term memory) and reference memories (long-term) to see how well the animals recall sequences of events. In working memory tests, pigeons and primates must remember a sequence well enough to peck or pick it in the right order again to get a reward [sources: Parker, Devine]. The animals did fairly well at these tasks, but their memory faded fast. Roberts thinks they were probably learning going from weakest memory to strongest memory, rather than actually "learning" or "remembering" a sequence.
Other researchers found that pigeons and monkeys performed well at reference memory tests in which they needed to remember a sequence after a delay between learning and testing [sources: Straub, D'Amato]. But, it took extensive training for the animals to learn these sequences, suggesting to Roberts that the ability did not come naturally to them. From these tests, it seems that animals would perceive time differently from humans, who have a relatively reliable and sophisticated memory of sequence of events.
In addition, animals don't seem to anticipate future needs and rewards very well, suggesting to researchers that they don't have a concept of the future. For instance, when given the choice, pigeons and rats chose a smaller immediate reward over a larger future reward [source: Rachlin, Tobin]. In one test, researchers presented primates with a choice between one banana and two bananas. Understandably, they chose two bananas consistently. However, as the supply of the two choices got larger, they started showing less of a preference -- they weren't hungry enough at that moment to eat 10 bananas, so they chose five bananas half the time [source: Silberberg]. Roberts concludes from these experiments that these animals sought to satisfy immediate hunger needs, and didn't plan for future hunger. This is very unlike humans, who usually use reason and forethought to anticipate future needs, from deciding to pack a lunch for work to investing in a 401(k) retirement plan.
So what about squirrels and other animals that hoard food for the impending winter months? That behavior seems to imply the animals anticipate future needs. Actually, maybe not. Studies have found that animals don't stop hoarding even when their supplies inexplicably disappear. This could mean the animals don't understand why they hoard, what it means for their future or even what future is. They simply do it out of instinct [source: Roberts] Humans, on the other hand, understand their preparations and quickly change strategies when plans go awry.
If animals are "stuck in time," as Roberts suggests, this could mean understanding time is uniquely and fundamentally human. It's your choice whether to relish that fact or try to learn something from the canine, carefree outlook of "living in the moment."

3D Pen – Page 2 – iuoma.org – Interested in Mail-Art?
Made this new work with the 3D pen today. The whole piece took over 5 hours to make, but I am happy with the technique I developed to make 3D opjects with the pen. The object can stand on its own and looks different from every angle you look at it. Still have to sign it, and then figure out the title.
Made some new 3D logos for the IUOMA with the MyRywell 3D pen and they got finished today. They always have a front and backside and have become lovely objects too.

For fans looking for two completely different pro football cultures and franchises, the Super Bowl between the New England Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles delivers the goods at best offshore sportsbooks. The Patriots are “establishment” in every way with a dynasty that brags of the best owner, coach and quarterback in the game. The upstart Eagles came out of nowhere to gain a Super Bowl berth with a backup quarterback. There is a compelling case for each team.
There are many well established reasons to think that the New England Patriots are the smart choice to win and cover the Super Bowl at best offshore sportsbooks. The famed Hall of Fame troika of owner Bob Kraft, head coach and general manager Bill Belichick, and quarterback Tom Brady are a machine. The Patriots have five Super Bowl championships since 2001 and eight AFC championships in that span. The Patriots roster routinely grinds out players like a revolving door but the key piece Brady remains ensconced. In an era that was totally set up to punish success and prevent a dynasty the Patriots have found a way to become the most successful franchise, long term, in NFL history.
The Philadelphia Eagles have never won the Super Bowl. Their last NFL championship was in 1960, when there was no such thing as a Super Bowl and the Patriots were in their first season in the brand new American Football League. The Eagles began the season as an afterthought at GTBets sportsbook to win the NFC. When starting quarterback Carson Wentz went down to injury in week 14 the Birds were written off for dead. But backup quarterback Nick Foles, in his second tour of duty with the Eagles, came off the bench to save the season as the Eagles won the NFC.
The Patriots are in excellent form as a betting value with ten payouts in their last 12 games. New England has gone under the total in five out of their last seven games. The Eagles have covered their last two games but lost four out of their previous five games against the spread. The Eagles have gone under the total in three out of their last four games. Philadelphia has been a dangerous dog lately with four payouts in their last five games as a pup. The Eagles have gone over the total in seven out of their last nine games as a dog.
The Eagles boast better overall team balance that could make them a compelling value at best offshore sportsbooks. The Eagles ranked seventh in the NFL for total offense and third for offense. The Eagles ranked fourth for total defense and for scoring defense. The Pats ranked a disturbing 29th in the NFL for overall defense but fifth for scoring defense. New England ranked 30th in the NFL for pass defense. But the New England offense ranked first overall and second for scoring.
This should be a tight one. But we won’t buck the establishment nor Brady. Patriots are the call!

Srinagar: The Supreme Court on Thursday heard a batch of petitions challenging the constitutional validity of “triple talaq” and to know whether it was fundamental to Islam, news agency IANS reported.
“We are going to decide the validity of triple talaq,” Chief Justice Jagdish Singh Khehar, heading a Constitution bench, was quoted as saying.
He asked the parties concerned to focus on whether triple talaq was fundamental to Islamic religion.
The Chief Justice said that petitioners and respondents would address the court on whether triple talaq was an enforceable fundamental right.
Triple talaq is a practice under which a husband can verbally divorce his wife by uttering the word “talaq” thrice.
The Modi government wants triple talaq to go. The practice is not followed in many Muslim countries including Pakistan.

The important difference between online headlines and print headlines.
Just as a newsbill is an advertisement, not an informational headline, and requires a different approach to a traditional print headline; online headlines must take into account that they will be the primary hook for reader searches. The syntax of online headlines is fundamentally about what will make sense to someone searching and scanning a summary of results… so the initial audience is actually a search bot from Google, or Yahoo! Slurp, not a human being. (Search bots are the pieces of code which are programmed to crawl web pages and help search engines to index content).

DOVER, Del. (AP) � Jimmie Johnson will go for the Dover sweep from the pole.
Johnson turned a lap of 157.356 mph yesterday at Dover International Speedway and will start first for only the second time this season. He led a career-high 298 laps in May to win at the Monster Mile.
The top four spots at qualifying spots for tomorrow�s race all went to Chase-for-the-championship drivers. Juan Pablo Montoya was second, Ryan Newman third and Greg Biffle fourth.
The remainder of the Chase drivers were scattered among the field.
Points leader Mark Martin qualified 14th, two-time Cup champion Tony Stewart was 22nd and Columbia�s Carl Edwards was the lowest Chase qualifier, starting 30th.

New research suggests that around 60 percent of the planet's giant herbivores - plant-eaters - including rhinos, elephants and gorillas, are at risk of extinction.
This warning comes from a survey published in the journal Science Advances ("Collapse of the world’s largest herbivores"). The research has been led by William Ripple, of the Department of Forest Ecosystems and Society, Oregon State University.
In the paper, the scientists have looked at population data relating to 74 different herbivores. The qualifier was that each animal needed to weigh over 100 kilos to be included in the study. This embraced a range of animals from reindeer to elephants.
The reason for the alarming predictive declines are multi-faceted and include habitat loss, hunting for meat or body parts, and competition for food and resources with livestock. At biggest risk is the rhinoceros. Given that a rhinoceros horn is worth more than gold, diamonds or cocaine on illegal markets, rhinos could be extinct, the researchers warn, in the wild within 20 years in Africa. It was through hunting that Africa's western black rhinoceros was declared extinct in 2011.
The impact is not just with herbivores for there is also a knock on effect with carnivores: a dwindling food source. In other words, as herbivore numbers fall so, ultimately, with carnivores for there will be fewer animals for the predators to feed upon. This is is likely to impact lions, leopards, and hyena the most.
Herbivores also perform other functions where, if their numbers fall, ecological issues could arise. For example, elephants help to clear forest by trampling down vegetation. Other herbivores help with seed dispersal.
As a remedy, the authors call for a coordinated research effort focusing on threatened species in developing countries. Otherwise, the future looks bleak. Talking with BBC Science, Professor Ripple warns: "The process of declining animals is causing an empty landscape in the forest, savannah, grasslands and desert."

Shamanism is about transformation, and the shaman must build models in which to produce transformational results. Traditionally the shaman has used the Spirit Model of Psychedelic Action which proposes that psychedelics work by allowing the brain access to a spirit dimension where information can be passed and received. There will always be entheogen users who adopt the spirit model for personal reasons, but others may not find any use in traditional spirit models. Any rational examination of shamanic power must accept the limitations of spirit models which fall short of meeting modern cultural expectations. The spirit world model of psychedelic action is not only inaccurate, it is also potentially dangerous when applied to modern society. Here is the best case against adopting the spirit model of psychedelic action.
Psychedelics are hallucinogenic drugs, which by definition means they make you see things that aren’t real. Some hallucinations, particularly those that are spiritual in nature, feel very real. But the same drug that can make you see spirits can make you see demons, memories, mandalas, mundane scenes from everyday life, an so on. No matter how real or bizarre or lifelike or spiritual the experience, it all fades away when the drug wears off. The pocket universe in your mind folds back into 3D space and the dream is over. To believe the dream is real is missing a very essential point of the entire hallucinogenic experience.
Psychedelics are about the self; they are a form of self-exploration. You get out of the experience what you put into the experience. If you have a spiritual experience it is because you are a spiritual person or at a spiritual place in your thinking; if you have a bad experience it is because you are at a bad place in your life or are being destructive or negative in your thinking. You would not blame the gods for a bad trip, or even a mediocre trip with no mystical fireworks, so why would you give them credit for the good ones? In other words, you are not an empty vessel passively receiving the mystical experience; you are the biological organism producing it. Take credit for your own visions.
Simply because you heard voices or saw gods or met elves does not mean that the experience has any deeper meaning beyond your own imagination. It is much easier to prove the case for delusional psychosis than it is to invoke an entire spirit world to explain your personal insights, so why make the spirit leap just because it felt real at the time. Dreams also feel real, but we dismiss them because they are often nonsensical and fade when we wake up. We should have the same kind of removed perspective for our waking psychedelic dreams. Use the content of the experience to see what it tells you about yourself, but don’t blindly believe everything you see as real.
The human brain perceives reality on a very narrow spectrum of visible light and audible sound waves; this is how external information enters into waking thought. The human brain is a biological device, and in order to see something there must be electrochemical stimulation in the visual cortex. If you are making the case for spirit beings or invisible landscapes that can only be seen under the influence of psychedelics, you are making a case for the human brain having a secret radio that can detect spirit energy that no other camera, spectrometer, or energy-sensor can perceive. While this is an interesting argument, it makes no sense. If there is a spirit energy out there that the human brain can perceive, other more sensitive devices should be able to perceive this energy as well. If the spirit world exists where is the spirit world camera? None exist. Invoking the clause of “only I can see it (when I’m on drugs)” makes the claims all the more far-fetched, and when you ascribe spirit power to a chemical that naturally bonds to receptors in your visual cortex, it demonstrates a fundamental misunderstanding of how neurochemical stimulation results in direct perception. The visions are the result of the molecule interacting with activity within your brain, not spirits emitting external waves on a higher-dimensional frequency that only you can perceive (on drugs).
If there are autonomous spirits and a spirit world that the human mind can perceive, then these spirit formations must be made out of something. In order to morph and become solid and reflect light and create sound vibrations that the retina or cortex or neural network can perceive, these entities have to have some substrate in which to exist. Without resorting to alternate dimensions or quantum space or dark matter, the average spiritual psychedelic enthusiast has no idea what the spirit world is made of, other than invisible energy fields. In order to perceive invisible energy fields there must be some emanation or gateway to information stored in those dimensions, and there is no physical fingerprint for those emanations other than the activity of neurons in a brain. Neurons fire in the brain all the time, and the brain creates artificial realities naturally while dreaming. There is no need to invoke alternate dimensions or invisible energy to explain these phenomena.
While there has been no satisfactory objective proof demonstrating that a spirit world exists, there has been an abundance of proof demonstrating that psychosis exists, and that the human mind is perfectly capable of fabricating detailed alternate realities without the aid of drugs or spirits. There have been many models of psychosis offered, including the dopamine model of psychosis, the cholinergic model of mediating waking/dreaming states, and the Ketamine/NMDA model of schizophrenia. Hallucinations, mystical experience, and delusions of grandeur are par for the course with psychosis, as is paranoia and irrational belief, yet many people who use psychedelics spiritually or recreationally are not fond of using the term acute psychosis to describe the effects, though this description clearly fits in high dose cases.
While psychedelics may lead some people into insights and expanded consciousness, they may also lead others to irrational behavior and the degradation of reason. In very simple terms, there is a psychedelic use threshold that eventually leads to some eccentricity or mental irrationality in the user. It is unknown what this precise threshold is, and it is likely very different for every person, but chronic use of high-dose psychedelics can either exacerbate existing psychotic tendencies or potentially lead to other forms of mental irrationality. If the destabilizing effects of psychedelics become chronic over time and begin to negatively affect personality and behavior, the promise of spiritual enlightenment may lead to chronic persisting delusional psychosis.
If we are to throw out all the arguments posed so far and concede for a moment that psychedelics offer some access to the wisdom of the spirits, there are still a few problems. In order to prove the autonomy of the spirits encountered on a psychedelic trip, various tests have been proposed to see if new information can be gleaned in the spirit dimension. According to traditional lore, shamen are able to use psychedelics to diagnose and cure disease, divine the use of plants, find missing objects, and perhaps even see the future. These all seem like very supernatural things when posed in a shamanic context, but if you take into account that human beings do all of those things naturally, all the time, without the aid of psychedelic drugs, then you can see how flimsy the whole spirit-knowledge argument becomes. There are a few famous reported cases of people making amazing discoveries with the aid of psychedelics, but the people who make these discoveries are brilliant to begin with. It would be one thing if history was filled with tales of Navaho medicine men finding the secret cure for smallpox, Mayan sorcerers finding the secret formula for gunpowder, Or Amazonian shamen finding the magical power to save the rainforests, but we know the opposite is true. When faced with real hard-world technology, the sacred wisdom offered by the psychedelic spirit realm shows its painful limitations.
If information is actually received from the spirit world during the psychedelic session, then it has become patently obvious that much of the information originating from the spirit world is not to be trusted. Even traditional shamen warn of trickery and deceit from the spirit realm, so what good is spirit data? One would assume that if you were to commune with actual spirits that they would not steer you wrong, but often they do. So what are we to make of their purpose, and why would we place such importance on their knowledge? Clinging to the spirit model forces one to adopt paradoxical conclusions, such as, “Spirit entities exist, but they confound and play tricks in order to make it impossible to objectively test their data.” As far-fetched as this statement seems, many people willingly swallow such logic if it allows them to retain belief in these entities. The other option, which is, “Perhaps I just imagined them,” seems overly simple in comparison; yet the simplest answer is usually the correct one.
If psychedelics are considered to be spiritual, and spiritual is good, then it should be good and spiritual to do as many psychedelics as we want. This may sound correct in theory, but it is hardly a guarantee in the real world. People who approach psychedelics with a spiritual attitude may be less likely to abuse them than people who take them recreationally, but others may cloak problematic abuse in spiritual terms to legitimize destructive behaviors. And even those who are spiritually rigorous and disciplined still run the risk of becoming occult, messianic, megalomaniacal, and obsessive about their entheogenic spiritual beliefs.
Spirituality and spiritual authority is inherently political. Adopting a shamanic spirit model gives the shaman political weight in the tribe. This goes for the shaman as well as all people in power who invoke God or spirits to back up their political beliefs. Invoking spirits gives legitimacy to the shaman’s decrees. It is easy to argue with a shaman, it is hard to argue with the spirits. The shaman is the tribe’s mediator to the spirit world, the shaman has the power to entrance the tribe and produce spirit visions. Control over mythology gives the shaman control over morality, judgment, and behavior. A rogue shaman can have tribe members of lesser intelligence all thinking and believing whatever he tells them, and thus he becomes like a guru or a living god. This is as true today as it was a thousand years ago.
Psychedelics were introduced to modern culture as spiritual sacraments. This is understandable, but in hindsight it appears to be an ethnocentric error in judgment. Instead of recognizing this error and correcting the shamanic mythology to reflect traditional beliefs, Western culture ran with the error and integrated psychedelic ritual as a form of hedonistic liberation and New Age journey of discovery. Within this guise the acts of psychedelic intoxication and self-indulgent revelry became synonymous with spirituality, and many ad-hoc mythologies and subcultures have formed around the meme of psychedelic intoxication as a means of evolving spiritual consciousness. Psychedelic spirituality can take many forms, but the most offensive and dangerous equate psychedelic indulgence directly to spiritual or intellectual growth. The notion that people who take large doses of psychedelic drugs are more spiritually pure or evolved than those who don’t is elitist, narcissistic, and petty. This meme is almost wholly inaccurate and is also recklessly dangerous, yet it has persisted as common wisdom in the subculture for many decades. The spirit model of psychedelic action allows the meme of psychedelics as mystical short-cut or one-true-path to enlightenment to propagate without sufficient scrutiny of the long-term results of this practice.
While the case against the spirit model of psychedelic action is strong, there are many who still hold out the hope or belief that the spirit model is a viable theory. Weighing the evidence, the most probable theory is that subjects who have spiritual experiences on psychedelics have awakened a previously unknown spiritual aspect within themselves; all evidence points inward, not outward. The content of any psychedelic trip is typically the result of the context in which the substance is ingested; the spiritual or entheogenic trip is merely one of many possible results. Within the proper sacred ritual and setting, the ingestion of a psychedelic can result in a bona-fide mystical experience; this is something that should be emphasized strongly. A subject on psychedelics may hear voices; see spirits and disincarnate entities; feel the presence of God or Gaia or the other; or perhaps have an astral journey where they leave their body and travel through time, to alternate dimensions, or across the barrier of life and death into the spirit world. These are all what we would expect from any solid mystical experience, and it is true that psychedelics can deliver these experiences with far greater ease than any other technique known to humans. We should always remember that this subjective aspect of psychedelic spirituality is truth.
Since the entheogenic trip can be very sacred and awe-inspiring, it seems logical that any information revealed within the trip should be considered divine or spiritual in origin. And yet, when spirit information is revealed it is often vague or like a riddle, or perhaps it seemed important at the time but is in fact quite mundane, or is fascinating or meaningful only to the subject who received the epiphany, or is flat obvious or absurd in hindsight. This muddled-message syndrome can leave the subject feeling depressed and isolated for days after any mystical psychedelic experience. Like an alien abduction, the experience is so unsettling that people may feel unable to talk about their experiences without making friends and loved-ones worry about their sanity. It can be elating and devastating at the same instant, so how does one integrate such experiences back into the mundane doings of hard reality? How does one decide what to believe about psychedelics?
When the process of integrating psychedelic belief turns outward it leads to art and music and mythology where the psychedelic experience is translated into a set of symbolic archetypes that can be shared with others. This ongoing process of turning entheogenic experience into shared cultural form serves to strengthen and enlarge what we think of as the psychedelic landscape; a landscape that keeps expanding to match the capacity of our human imaginations. Where there was once only plant-spirits, jaguars, snakes, icaros and santitios, now there are machine elves, hyperspatial aliens, wicked jesters, trance music, robot doctors, and even the Beatles, Jesus, Mary, Buddha, Yahweh, and all the old-world Indo-European deities along for the ride. Hence, the spirit world is not a fixed space, it is an epiphenomenon of our own cultural imagination which grows and shrinks in proportion with our own subjective cultural awareness. The psychedelic space is not an autonomous spirit realm; it is an immediate transpersonal reflection of who we are as individuals and as members of the human species.

BoxPacker is designed to integrate as seamlessly as possible into your existing systems, and therefore makes strong use of PHP interfaces. Applications wanting to use this library will typically already have PHP domain objects/entities representing the items needing packing, so BoxPacker attempts to take advantage of these as much as possible by allowing you to pass them directly into the Packer rather than needing you to construct library-specific datastructures first. This also makes it much easier to work with the output of the Packer - the returned list of packed items in each box will contain your own objects, not simply references to them so if you want to calculate value for insurance purposes or anything else this is easy to do.
Similarly, although it’s much more uncommon to already have ‘Box’ objects before implementing this library, you’ll typically want to implement them in an application-specific way to allow for storage/retrieval from a database. The Packer also allows you to pass in these objects directly too.
To accommodate the wide variety of possible object types, the library defines two interfaces BoxPacker\Item and BoxPacker\Box which define methods for retrieving the required dimensional data - e.g. getWidth(). There’s a good chance you may already have at least some of these defined.
If you do happen to have methods defined with those names already, and they are incompatible with the interface expectations, then this will be only case where some kind of wrapper object would be needed.

We heard that he murdered someone prior to killing the praying people, and he did murder a woman who was lying on the street asking for help. Those two murders can very likely be separated from the massacre. He also shot someone through his car window as he was driving away. That's perhaps a 3rd non-massacre murder.

Mass murderers, shooters, etc often sit on the psychopathy, socipathy or narcissism spectrum. It's in the same as those with Borderline Personality Disorder also tend to have 'mother issues'. It's been speculated that 80% of men in prison in the US for hard crimes, have Borderline Personality Disorder (sorry, can't validate the statistic, just remember it).
Personally I would think the rate would be even higher. Humans are social animals, we're hard-wired to act within social boundaries.
Though he means well, Ben-Ghiat appears to be confusing fascism for nazism.
Fascism is centered around the idea that a single national culture / national identity needs to be promoted in a society. Though the one national culture can very closely linked to a "race", that race does not need to be "white".
For example, neither of the two main original fascists (Mussollini(sp) and Franco) were dogmatically racist. This does not mean they were hugely tolerant, just that they were not racists. Likewise fascist like regimes have periodically popped up in Lebanon (Phalangist), Syria (Assad), Egypt (Nasser), Kenya (Jomoh Kenyatta(sp) ), and Zimbabwe (Mugabe).
All of the above regimes, in addition to some fascist friendly Greek rulers, featured alot of National Identity hype, ideas of only one national culture, the concept of a strong leader, and the suppression of other forms of cultural identity. For some, the promoted culture was European. For others, it was Middle Eastern, and for still others the promoted culture / identity was African.

You will see that he referred to himself as "The Father of the Country" (strong leader hype). Expelled whites and Indians from Kenya (one national culture / identity), and had a romanticized view of Kenya's pre colonial past (historical greatness hype), and was also "dictatorial" and "authoritarian".
Sure, he dabbled in Communism and even studied in the USSR. But.... politics is really circular- not linear left / center/ right. The line between "socialist" and "fascist" can get very blurry. In short, Kenyatta was a fascist. The fact that he was African does not change that. Ditto for Mugabe.
Again, fascism promotes culture and national identity, not race per se. Jomoh Kenyatta expelled whites and Indians from Kenya not because of their race per se, but because of their "foreign" cultural and national identity. Sure, the two things were closely linked, but Kenyatta was not a dogmatic racist.

The distribution of a video depicting murders does not fall under free speech in any capacity. There are exceptions to what the press can publish and distribute legally in the US.

I don’t know. I found lots of imfo on Aryan .
At this time the accused has no access to television, radio or newspapers while being held in segregation and has no approved visitors.
He has been moved to the country's only specialist maximum security prison in Auckland and will spend 19 to 20 hours a day in a cell.
It is not known whether he will be flown back to Christchurch for this next court appearance next month or appear via audio visual link.
A former prison inmate and current Canterbury University criminologist said the accused would have a large target on his back in prison. He said the majority of the prison population was non-white and the accused would not be able to find any white supremacists to band together with. It was possible he could spend the rest of his life in segregation, and at least the next five to 10 years in "effective" solitary confinement.

I'm assuming the NZ criminal trial structure is the same as the US? He can do a lot of grandstanding drama during his opening and closing statements as well.

In the 2013 census, 74.0% of New Zealand residents identified ethnically as European, and 14.9% as Māori. Other major ethnic groups include Asian(11.8%) and Pacific peoples (7.4%), two-thirds of whom live in the Auckland Region.[n 3] The population has become more diverse in recent decades: in 1961, the census reported that the population of New Zealand was 92% European and 7% Māori, with Asian and Pacific minorities sharing the remaining 1%.
So it looks like he actually would have a good amount of whites to pal around with in prison, though it might depend on how he is classified as to how and who he would be exposed to when it comes to other inmates. I'm not sure what prison culture is like in NZ, if there are ethnic gangs etc that stick together no matter what. My guess is they desperately want to keep him away from the other prisoners especially whites for fear that he will try to radicalize them. IMO.

Bold and red by me.
But these consequences are being ushered in by her, not the shooter. I 100% respect NZ leaders, and how they run their country is their business. But I really think that there has been somewhat of a knee-jerk reaction, decisions being announced during times of high emotion when all of the facts weren't yet in and the investigation wasn't yet complete. There even were politicians having to walk back on statements made way too early without first taking the time to sort out the situation. There was no need to make gun control such a center topic in the immediate aftermath of the tragedy. The reaction was similar to the Parkland shooting aftermath in Florida here in the US (I know the US is not NZ but please let this one slide as I'm just trying to use for comparison). It's hard for me not to wonder if this tragedy is being used to further political agendas, especially since I have seen it before in my own country. All IMO.
BTW I'm seeing reports on other social media that New Zealanders are already being blocked from several websites.
It’s be interesting to see the ethnic breakdown for a maximum security facility like paremoremo where he’ll likely end up. It may be different to the one for overall prison population that you’ve referenced above.
Very few people think of the ethnicities of people such as the victims as Caucasian. Caucasian is almost always used to describe white Europeans, though there are other ethnicities that technically qualify as Caucasians. Not one single person I know would use the word Caucasian to define any of the victims. And I'm confident the shooter knows the true definition of Caucasian.
Yes I agree, that's why I said this: "though it might depend on how he is classified as to how and who he would be exposed to when it comes to other inmates."

Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan, Republican National Convention speakers–do they speak from the heart?
I heard Paul Ryan speak at the RNC last night. Boy, he sounded good. I would, too, if I had some of the top speech writers in the country putting words in my mouth! Now, before everyone goes to send me evil e-mail saying that I’m a bleeding heart liberal (or worse) I know that I will feel the same about Obama and the speakers at the Democratic National Convention next week!
I understand that we’re all about sound bites and that all of the election slogans have been focus group tested until the experts figure out the perfect saying that our little brains will remember. But I’m thankful that not EVERYONE is that way.
The Last Goodbye Letters project is chugging away slowly. I don’t have nearly the 1,000 letters I’m hoping to get contributed. But at least the letters I’m getting are from the heart from real people who don’t worry about focus group testing!
How’s that for speaking/writing from the heart? This letter is so important to this woman that she keeps it in her safety deposit box.
If you have such a letter or feel compelled to write one and share it with us, please contact me at Letters@LastGoodbyeLetters.com. Tell someone you love them today!

I made a minor change to the grain bill this time, I left out the chocolate since I want this to be a lighter colored beer. I bumped up the 2-row by a pound and the wheat by half a pound.
60 minute mash at 147F. I mashed at 154F last time, I'm going for this to be a little drier.
1/4 oz each Chinook, Centennial, and Cascade at FWH, 90, 80, 70, 60, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10, 5, flameout. All hops are whole leaf, makes for a lot of soggy hops to clean up.

Free 2019 Accurate Astrology report for FREE. Just Select your Zodiac sign and it will ask your Name, Data of Birth & Time to Know Future life.
Maybe the best quality of astrology, is that it works with a basic outcome of the universe. It’s being depicted from the point of view of wave hypothesis and the subsequent quantum universe.
So what is the accuracy of Astrology when utilized as a tool to foresee the future or for basic leadership?. We have utilized profound research approaches to help with revealing insight into this question. Alongside giving an otherworldly point of view to the exactness of Astrology and the parameters that could influence it.
As indicated by the art of Spirituality, predetermination is that piece of our lives which is foreordained even before our introduction to the world.
All the real occasions in our lives are pre-foreordained, for example, the guardians we are destined to, the individual that we wed or an existence debilitating sickness we could have.
Fate is naturally a profound issue which can’t be grasped by the five sense organs, the psyche and the judgment.
Sadly, outside of a research center examination, in this present reality, foreseeing occasions that outcome from an incomprehensible interchange of fundamental elements turns into an activity in likelihood and brings into play critical levels of vulnerability.
Then again, the favorable position that soothsaying has in uncovering examples and inclinations, is that it indicates how we tune to our general surroundings. It is the thing that we tune to that decides our bearing in life.

Peranakan Chinese (Peranakan Cina) and Baba-Nyonya are terms used for the descendants of late 15th and 16th-century Chinese immigrants to the Nusantara region during the Colonial era.
Nyonya is the term for the ladies, while Baba for the gentlemen. It applies especially to the ethnic Chinese populations of the British Straits Settlements of Malaya and the Dutch-controlled island of Java and other locations, who have adopted partially or in full Nusantara customs to be somewhat assimilated into the local communities.
Most Peranakans have lived for generations along the Straits of Malacca and not all intermarried with the local Native Indonesians and Malays. Mostly are of Hoklo (Hokkien) ancestry, although a sizable number are of Teochew or Cantonese descent. Originally, the Peranakan were mixed-race descendants, part Chinese, part Malay/Indonesian.
Peranakans were usually traders, the middleman of the British and the Chinese, or the Chinese and Malays, or vice versa due to the fact that they were mostly English educated. Because of this, they almost always had the ability to speak two or more languages. However, in later generations, some lost the ability to speak Chinese as they became assimilated to the Malay Peninsula's culture and started to speak Malay fluently as a first or second language.

The Abbeville Opera House opened in 1908 as a venue for audiences in western South Carolina to see the touring vaudeville, minstrel, and burlesque troupes which performed on “the circuit” between New York and Atlanta. The auditorium, stage, fly loft, and cat walk were said to be the “equal in beauty of architecture and modern conveniences of any in the state.” All in all, the Opera House established Abbeville County as the cultural center of the Upstate.
At the turn of the century, vaudeville was in its heyday. The hall hosted musicals, Broadway shows, the Ziegfeld Follies, and famous entertainers of the day such as Jimmy Durante and Fannie Brice.
With the advent of motion pictures, the Opera House began to accommodate both film and live theater. In 1927, The Jazz Singer was the first “talkie” to come to Abbeville. As movies grew in popularity, live road shows began to disappear. However, early motion pictures required full crews of musicians and sound-effect technicians. They were impressive and still provided the awe of “live” show business.
In time the old Opera House turned exclusively to cinema. Business boomed through the 1930s and 1940s, but changes in ownership, the economy, and a lack of public demand forced the house to close in the 1950s.
Fortunately the late 1960s saw efforts to revive live theater in Abbeville, and in time the Opera House was restored. Little by little, money was raised, restoration work progressed, and in 1978, the Opera House once again had a summer theater season. Thornton Wilder’s Our Town was the first show produced after the restoration.
Today Abbeville’s Opera House is fully restored to its turn-of-the-century splendor with two modern concessions to comfort – air conditioning and rocking chairs! The curtain is raised and lowered using the same rope-pulled rigging system as in 1908, making it the only “hemp house” remaining in South Carolina.
Today the Opera House attracts more than 20,000 visitors to Abbeville during its winter and summer seasons. Located on the town’s Court Square, next to the Abbeville County Courthouse, the Opera House is open weekdays from 8:30 AM to 5 PM for self-guided tours.
Abbeville Opera House opened its doors in 1904 and served as a cultural center for theatrical productions, public speeches, and other town events. The Opera House drew prominent attractions such as the Ziegfield Follies, George White Scandals, Jimmy Durante, and Fanny Brice. This three-story brick building is built in the Beaux-Arts classical style and is located on Abbeville’s public square adjacent to the courthouse. The Opera House has unusual brickwork on the main floor, which includes a starburst design around keystones, an elaborate entrance crowned by large diminishing stone slabs, masonry quoins, and a large entablature with dentils and fretwork. The design of the Opera House closely copied Atlanta’s Grant Theatre and Richmond’s Lyric, with a huge 7,500 square-foot stage to accommodate large touring casts. The Opera House is one of few remaining in South Carolina, and it was fully restored in 1968. According to local tradition, William Jennings Bryan spoke from the Opera House stage during his campaign for President of the United States.
Photographer Mark Clark, an Abbeville native currently living in Winnsboro, remembers when his high school senior class presented the play, You Can’t Take It with You, at the opera house in 1982. He was cast in the small role of Wilbur C. Henderson, an IRS agent sent to collect back taxes from a character who doesn’t believe in paying them.
I worked at the Opera House as a cashier while attending high school. I later worked for attorney Mr Ralph Syfan next door to the box office (for 5 years). I was in the second play, "The Detective Story", put on by the little theater group. The Opera House was still a movie theater so the play was at the high school audiotorium. My future husband was the theater manager at the time.
I rememeber the first play I was in was "Fiddler on the Roof" followed by "Camelot" possibly in 1977 or 1978. I feel that both productions were as good as I ever seen. I also remember begging my father to donate from his mill, Bloomsburg Mills, seats for the renovation. Thank Goodness, he did!

Our Interview with MEP Herbert Dorfmann is a follow up conversation after his Key Note speech at the ERIAFF Convention in Hague ( European Regions for Innovation in Agriculture, Food and Forestry), ERIAFF is currently developing an all European platform for innovation Agriculture, Food and Forestry Industries.
Do you foresee a growing impact of European regions on development of sustainable agriculture in Europe?
I think EU regions are important for development of agricultural policy and for agriculture in Europe and if you look at EU policy in most Member States the regions decide on development plans, so they have money on their hands from the 2nd pillar of CAP (Common Agricultural Policy). So it is up to them how to use the 2nd Pillar of CAP, which is a very important pillar and it is up to the regions how to support the sustainable agriculture all over European Union.
CAP is the hot topic of discussions now; who and what should be given priorities in it?
First of all I think the EU agriculture is extremely important and we very often underestimate our importance and our performance all over the world, because it is now one of the biggest agricultural regions in the world plays vital role on the international scale. So I think it is really time to think about innovation, we need to look at our products that are quite expensive if you look at global level, but which are safe and of high quality. How we can develop this products, how we can be successful and competitive with this products. We have to defend our geographic indications for example, safety should be a must for agricultural products in Europe and then I think we have an agriculture that is very much based on family businesses and CAP should support these family businesses and this is not a question of size. Family business for example in my home region of South Tyrol are very small, in other places they are bigger. I think that the fundamental idea that there are families behind the business is extremely important.
Can you see the extension of sustainable technologies and organic pesticides into greenhouses production, which by tradition are considered to be not only energy draining but also heavily depended on chemicals? Do current policies support it?
I think this is not a question of greenhouse production or not a greenhouse production, we need to be as sustainable as possible in our agricultural production and this does not mean that we have to have everything produced organically, I think this is not possible and there is no market for that. I think agriculture should be market oriented business and should produce what consumers like to buy, but there is a clear signal from consumers that they want sustainable products. Therefore, I think for the green house production it is extremely important, because greenhouse production from this point of view maybe more complicated because deceases spread very easily, so there is a need or demand for high use of pesticides in the green house production. We need innovation, we need to look at how integrated agro-production can work in green houses and I think we should really work on innovation, because more and more consumers will pay more attention to this question.
Before the end of 2017 what new policies will come out or are in the works that investors in EU agriculture should watch?
Those people who are doing agricultural business in EU first of all want to sell their products and this for me it is very important to have an open market for our products, open also for people coming in EU for investment, open for products going out of EU and at this moment we are quite successful in it. We had a very important improvement on our international trade in our agricultural products, especially products of high quality and expensive products, so I think we need to open up our markets. I am not in favor of completely liberal politics, I think markets need to have rules, but I think we have really good products from our agriculture and food industry and people all over the world like to eat them.
We have a lot of ongoing policies: we have free trade agreements with Vietnam, Japan which can be a very important market for our food industry and agro production in Europe. We are starting to debate how CAP (Common Agricultural Policy) will go on beyond 2020 and I think this will be the most important debate in the next months here is European Parliament.
You represent South Tyrol province of Italy in the European Parliament, which is well known for its sound agriculture producing abundance of fruits (apples), wines, meat products. What kind of Agtech innovations have been used by the farmers there?
Our Agriculture is very specific, we have wine, apples in some parts of the region, in the mountains we have milk production. If it comes to innovation apple production is extremely important sector: we produce about 10% of all European apples. It is quite an important share and specially the use of pesticides and water for example is very important topic and we need innovation for these areas, Big Data I think especially in the use of water. We will more and more have precision farming and we will give water really where it is needed and not everywhere. This will be a big debate in the future because water is not available any more in abundance also in my region in the middle of the mountains. Also we should use precision agriculture in the use of pesticides, innovation technologies extremely important. We have to look how to improve the distribution of pesticides that should go to the plants and not to the air. There is a lot of work to do!
