The Norwegian companies Skipsteknisk and Simek have landed a contract with the seafood company Sealord in New Zealand.
Exporters: Simek, Skipsteknisk and various Norwegian sub-contractors, including Optimar AS.
Product: Trawler constructed by Simek and designed by Skipsteknisk.
Financing: Export Credit Norway helped finance the vessel, while GIEK guaranteed the loan.
Backed by financing from Export Credit Norway, New Zealand-based shipping company Sealord chose to build a new cutting-edge factory trawler in Norway. The deal holds promise as a model for future transactions.
“This is our first agreement with a client based in New Zealand, and we have already noted knock-on effects in terms of enquiries about further deals. Sealord is the second-largest shipping company on the island, and also has an Australian operation. We hope that increased awareness of our favourable financing products will enable Norwegian shipyards and suppliers to win further contracts in future,” says Kaare Haahjem, Export Credit Norway’s representative for fisheries and fish farming.
He believes that the contract may also encourage other companies in the region to look to Norway.
“Oceania is a market with great potential for Norwegian exporters, particularly in the maritime and fisheries sectors. Thanks to their extensive experience and expertise, Norwegian operators are excellent partners for companies in these segments,” says Haahjem.
The Sealord delivery comprised an ultra-modern factory trawler with a harvesting and processing capacity of up to 20,000 tonnes a year. The ship, which has been named the “Tokatu”, was designed by Skipsteknisk in Ålesund and constructed by Simek in Flekkefjord. The transaction was facilitated by financing from Export Credit Norway.
“Following delivery of the vessel, Simek unfortunately suffered empty order books and had to petition for bankruptcy. Nonetheless, all those involved can be proud of a high-quality delivery and, not least, a major contribution to opening doors for new contracts that may benefit other Norwegian shipyards,” says Haahjem.
The Tokatu will be based in Nelson, New Zealand. It measures more than 80 metres in length, and is equipped with cutting-edge automated plate freezer and palletising systems. A fish-meal plant has also been installed, turning the trawler into a zero-emissions vessel. While the crew totals 50 persons, the shipping company has stated that the ship will support a total of 80 jobs.
According to Sealord, the contract sum totals NZD 70 million, and construction has taken around two years. Export Credit Norway has provided loan financing for the ship, while GIEK has issued a full guarantee for the loan.

Self-consciousness is a major problem in the Body of Christ today. It keeps us from doing the things God tells us to do. Instead of simply obeying Him, it makes us start to wonder, Now what will people think of me if I do that? What if I command that person to get out of the wheelchair and he doesn’t get up? What if I start believing for prosperity and go broke? What about that, God? I won’t look too good, will I?
If you’ve ever been through that, let me tell you something: It doesn’t matter how you look! It’s obeying God that counts. When it comes to obeying God, your own reputation doesn’t count. And the sooner you forget it, the better off you’ll be.
But you know what’s ironic? Once you do that, your reputation gets better. It’s a funny thing. When you lose that desire to protect your image, your image will improve. Why? Because then when people look at you, instead of seeing that puny little image you have of yourself, they’ll see the image of the Lord Jesus coming through.
So put aside that old self-consciousness and develop God-consciousness instead. Stop being dominated by the fear of man and start being motivated by faith in what Jesus can do.
After all, He has promised He will never leave you or forsake you. Grab hold of that. Believe it. Act on it. Once you do, you’ll realize there’s really nothing to be afraid of anymore!

The building occupied by the Glasgow Mechanics' Institution at 38 Bath Street, photographed around the time it became part of the Glasgow and West of Scotland Technical College in 1887.
The Mechanics' Institution was formed on 3 July 1823, following a dispute between the Mechanics' Class at Anderson's Institution (later Anderson's University) and the latter's managers. It was the precursor of a movement that spread across the world. The new Institution initially occupied the upper floor of a disused chapel in Shuttle Street. In 1831 John Leadbetter provided it with a building in North Hanover Street. Leadbetter was a successful linen merchant who was president of the Institution for ten years.
In 1862 the Institution moved to the Bath Street premises. In 1881 it became the College of Science and Arts, before being absorbed in the Glasgow and West of Scotland Technical College in 1887.

#Sunday #Roundup of #Books #Week #41!!
Welcome to the #SundayRoundup #41!!
Things are going well. I have had my first experience with bringing my daughter to a university that she is interested in attending. It was the only one that was out of state and 3 hours away which wasn't that bad. We go in November to her second choice of schools. Hoping that it goes well and it is in our home state so it should not be bad money wise. My daughter has also been much more proactive on learning to drive and drove the three hours home on the highway for the first time. Not much traffic and we have been practicing with the roads around our house for weeks. It was time to branch off and I got a great big break in driving!

How was your week in books?
Cute pups! All the college choice stuff looks very time consuming and stressful! Only one person in my year at school went to a college other than the local one!
I remember looking at colleges! I wanted to be far enough away that I had to live there but not to far away that I couldn't drive home in a couple hours if I needed to. Good luck to your daughter in her choice!
I hope that your daughter's choices work out for the best for all of you. Enjoy your week!
College visits, how fun! My daughter ended up going to Syracuse, which was 5 hours away, but also had tricky weather. I was lucky, my aunt and her family lived near the university. So, she was not alone. Good luck with your midterms. I know you will do amazing!
Being tired can be a permanent state...or it feels like it.
I hope you find a college not too far away. Not seeing the kids regularly can be difficult.
Your pups are adorable and I hope your daughter enjoyed checking out the university that she might go to!
I feel tired too and I am sorry to hear I am not the only one! Today I relaxed with a bubble bath and a book. I hope you will find a way to relax too and that the next week will be less tiring!
I love the photos, especially the dogs! I’m glad the college visit went well. Thanks for giving my post a shout out. Have a great week!
Good luck with your midterms. Those pictures are great! Hope the week is a good one for you.
Good luck with your university travels! A fun and stressful time, I'm sure. Love the look of Seafire and Bring Me Back.
You are reading some good books. I hope you have a better next week.
Lily and Molly are so adorable. Sounds like you had a great week!
Love the pictures of Lily and Molly! I'm like you, not getting back until Tuesday with commenting. I've got SeaFire at home, need to get to it soon. I'm tired all the time it seems these days. Oh well. Hope you have a good week coming up!

Interpretive Summary: The pink hibiscus mealybug (PHM) is a serious pest of fruits, vegetables, ornamentals, and landscape plants. This exotic pest invaded south Florida in 2002, and subsequently spread to Louisiana, Texas, and Georgia. The spread of PHM is also a threat to numerous other southern states with climates considered suitable for its establishment. However, a problem of major concern was that it was not known how this pest was able to spread geographically. We studied this problem and found that newly hatched small forms of the insect called crawlers were being carried by prevailing winds during the afternoon. Maximum wind speed, relative humidity, temperature, solar radiation, and rainfall had minimal effect on the spreading rate. This information will be used by scientists and growers to predict where new PHM infestations are likely to develop by knowing prevailing winds from one region to another and where pest management interventions should be timely applied to retard further spreading of the pest.
Technical Abstract: Aerially dispersing pink hibiscus mealybug, Maconellicoccus hirsutus (Green) in south Florida were captured in traps and were predominantly (97%) first instar crawlers. Dispersal showed a dial periodicity that peaked between 14:00 and 18:00 h and was significantly influenced by mean wind speed. Maximum wind speed, relative humidity, temperature, solar radiation, and rain fall had minimal effect. Dispersing crawlers were carried passively on air currents, indicated by the correspondence between the directionality of captures and the prevailing wind direction. Population density had no significant effect on the number of dispersing individuals captured from plants initially infested with 5, 10, or 20 adult females. The number of crawlers captured at distances of 5, 10, 25, or 50 m from infested plants were not significantly different. Male captures in pheromone traps during a two week survey in May were reasonably accurate predictors of future captures in 2006 (r2 = 0. 712) and 2007 (r2 = 0.216). The number of potted sentinel hibiscus plants that became infested by mealybugs and the latency to their expression of feeding symptoms did not differ among residential sites ranked according to the relative number of males captured (low, moderate, or high) during the 2 wk survey. The on-going development of guidelines for pheromone based monitoring of pink hibiscus mealybug is discussed in relation to mitigating the risk from the spread of populations to commercial nursery operations.

BUDAPEST, Hungary - Hungarian authorities are hunting for a man who set off a homemade fragmentation bomb that seriously wounded two officersin central Budapest, the country’s police chief said Sunday.
Papp didn’t say why the suspect wanted to harm police officers. But he didn’t rule out terrorism, one of seven working theories established by investigators in the case categorized as attempted murder.
Papp offered a 10-million-forint ($36,700) reward for information leading to the capture of the suspect, believed to be 20-25 years old and 170 centimeters (around 5’6”) tall.
“We will find the perpetrator and discover his motivation,” Papp said, adding that several hundred officers and investigators were working on the case.
Several streets and an important avenue near the site of the explosion were still closed to traffic late Sunday as investigators searched for evidence. Papp couldn’t say when they would be reopened.

Is Peter Crouch still holding the key after all these years?
It’s not quite back to the drawing board, but Gary Rowett has clearly seen enough to push him towards a major re-think.
Peter Crouch’s influence from the bench this season, culminating in his equaliser at Preston on Saturday, has left his manager ready to turn the clock back.
And we surely can’t afford to be too sniffy about it either.
Call it long ball or being more direct, a policy that will require a 37 year-old striker at its heart, is not what many envisaged.
But needs must and performances and results tell their own story.
So instead of teeing up a winning platform through playing better football, and then finishing teams off with Crouch’s greater physical presence, the plan now, and for a little while longer, might have to be the other way round.
Batter teams into submission with quicker and more regular ball into the box for the big man, then see the game out from a winning position by keeping better possession.
Sounds simple (if only), but at least Stoke have a manager not too proud to deploy such tactics, in the interim at least, and readily admit as much publicly.
A drift in that direction might nudge the likes of Bojan to the margins again and upset his many fans, but his time may yet return during a long season ahead and particularly during three-game weeks.
Rowett was already heading in that direction before Saturday’s game anyway by dropping Bojan and handing a surprise start to Saido Berahino before afterwards explaining he wanted greater physicality in his starting 11.
The cynics will be turning their nose up at the ugly one-dimensional football they will now be anticipating, but Stoke are in no position to be footballing snobs anymore.
A new base is needed to build from and that base clearly needs stronger players, physically and mentally, to see the job done.
Besides, the thought of quick ball to wingers prepared to cross with speed and power towards men storming in numbers into the opposition box feels like a pretty rosy one right now.

About a week ago, I joined an online discussion group for mystery writers. So far, I've just been reading the comments and haven't "spoken" up.
The entire week has been taken up with discussion of the term "prepublished." You've probably heard the term; I have. Prepublished is basically an euphemism for "unpublished." Writers who use the term aren't pretending to be something other than unpublished, but prepublished has a softer ring to it, a hint of their surety that they'll be published in the future.
Some writers prefer the term. Some writers do not.
prepublished author would be one who has sold their book, but it's not out in print yet.
Not to say you don't want to ever use the term, but you might want to be careful around agents.
It is a term that a lot of authors and writers use, though. I did a google search on the phrase "pre-published author."
Got back results for 42,300 hits.
Endeavor continues to build up its presence in the book business with the hiring of Dutton editor-in-chief Trena Keating as an agent in the New York office.

There are "no limitations as to the character of the book," so authors of fiction, nonfiction and poetry for kids up to age 14 are all eligible.
Valerie Strauss reported in the Washington Post last month that "the literary world is debating the Newbery's value, asking whether the books that have won recently are so complicated and inaccessible to most children that they are effectively turning off kids to reading.
The intent of the Newbery, like certain adult literary awards, is to "encourage good writing," whether or not the book has broad popular appeal.
Even though I was a slow reader and some of the books were hard for me (and some I didn't like at all), the ones I loved held me in their grip and made me want more.
The book made me decide to become a writer.
In my experience, children who read award books by choice and for pleasure became, as readers, more confident, competent and eager.
Looking for character names? Here's a great source, from the Ancient World to Africa to Medieval to the Middle East and beyond.

Today, we are introducing several features to the Elementor Form widget, including 6 new fields: File upload, Acceptance checkbox, Date & Time pickers, Password and HTML fields.
The Form widget was one of the first widgets included in Elementor Pro when it was first launched. Since then, we have added many useful form features, like our recent integration to several marketing automation and CRM services.
Today, we are revamping Elementor forms, adding 6 new form fields, and extending the functionality of several existing fields. Using these new improvements, you can utilize Elementor’s visual form builder to design any type of form you desire.
Hiring new employees? You’ll probably need your candidates’ CVs submitted with their application form.
The new File Upload field lets your visitors upload files directly within the form.
Maximum upload file size: Limit the maximum file size you’ll receive. Although the absolute limit is set by your hosting provider, you can set a smaller limit using this control.
Allowed file types: Set which file types the user can upload. This is important in order to make sure you get the proper file from your users and to improve the security of the form.
Allowed multiple files: Let the user upload multiple files at once. Switching this on will add the ‘Maximum files’ control, which limits the number of uploaded files.
All uploaded files go through security and validations checks built in to Elementor forms, ensuring your website is never compromised.
As expected from an acceptance field, you can set it to be a required field. You also have the option to set the acceptance field as checked by default.
Beside using this field as an acceptance field, it also functions as a single checkbox field that can be used for any other purpose.
The Date field lets users send a preferred date within their form submission. This is extremely practical for reservation based businesses like restaurants and hotels. You can set a minimum and maximum date, so it’s easier for the user to pick the correct date.
Switch on Native HTML5, so that the browser’s date picker is used instead of Elementor’s picker. On mobile devices, native HTML5 wil be used automatically, since native date pickers on mobile browsers are better supported.
The time field is similar to the date field, only the user selects a certain time of day instead of a date. You can actually combine the Time and Date fields inside the same form, to get the user to send you a specific point in time. As with the Date field, you have the option to turn on Native HTML5, so that the browser’s time picker is used instead of Elementor’s time picker.
Using Elementor forms, you probably got used to building the entire form visually. There are situations, however, where adding custom HTML straight to the form can be helpful. The new HTML field gives you the flexibility to add custom HTML to the form, a handy option for customizations, like adding custom coded titles inside forms.
Use this field to let your visitors set a password using your form. It will enable users to type their passwords without showing the characters, for better security when filling in the field.
All this is added to the already broad spectrum of possibilities available in the form builder.
We added minimum and maximum values to the number field. This way, the user will only be able to submit a number within the range you specified.
Let’s say you own an online slippers shop that only sends 2 to 10 pairs of slippers per order. With the Min and Max validations, you’ll be able to set the min max values within that 2-10 range, ensuring you never get a wrong order of slippers.
Email validation was already included in our forms, and now we also added phone validation. This way, only valid phone numbers can be submitted by the user.
0-9  (  )  *  #  +  -  .
Once you switch on Multiple Selection for the Select field, the options in the select field will be visible to your user. The user can then submit several options at once, by selecting them in the field. You can also specify the number of rows that will appear visible for this field.
Forms play a substantial role for most websites, as it is your primary means of getting leads and conversions.
So, it’s no surprise that over the past year, one of the most popular requests we received was related to extending our form builder capabilities.
This update was built after we analyzed your requests. Although this was a challenge, we managed to add all the new form features, while keeping the widget as visual and intuitive as ever.
If you’re already a Pro user, I invite you to extend your forms with the added functionality. If you still haven’t upgraded to Pro, now’s the time to join our premium community, and enjoy the best form builder in WordPress, along with many other amazing features.
Very nice. I already started making the switch over from previous forms to elementor. I’m extremely happy I purchased elementor pro. Please continue to build and please do not forget to continue to build on the outstanding template library. You guys made my work so much easier.
Pretty great stuff here 🙂 Will email validation get added as a default, or still reliant on the browser?
WOW This is great!!!! Thanks Elementor (Pro) Team!
Thanks you for being part of our community!
Just need form entries stored in admin panel as well and I can finally ditch gravity forms for most of my clients.
I use this… https://www.sean-barton.co.uk/2017/04/elementor-contact-form-db-free-plugin/ – works really well.
Any new wordpress action hook for after form submission to process data from the functions.php !!!
Nice, but ‘any form’ is a bit exaggerated. I do miss conditional logic in the form.
Fantastic, thanks for the Upload field, I’ve been waiting for this.
Many thanks for file upload!
Amazing! Keep making your widgets even better!
I will stop that right away. You guys are awesome!!!
Does this store the data anywhere? If so that’s great – if not then it makes some of this kind of useless for me. I would love to have a great alternative to things like Gravity.
Ben, again a killer feature! Elementor is becoming one of its kind page builder. So much time saved, so great useful functionalities to add to any restaurant, bar ot event website. Amazing inquiry forms could be build now with closed eyes and no extra heavy plugins to be installed.
Wow !! You guys are nailing it with every update.
Mine shows fully updated as well, with no option to update further in WordPress, but my version is 1.12.3 and these options are not available in my forms.
Outstanding. Html field expands the possibilities to almost infinite.
Where do I have to place the code PHP-Code-snippet?
Thanks for Elementor. For me, it is the best page builder out there!
Thanks! One thing that would be great to see in the future is conditions and branching!
File upload is what I was waiting for. Now I can get rid of the other form creation plugins!!
Ben, the best just got better and another plugin has just been made redundant. Thank you. If I can add something to the wish list, conditional logic would be it. But, for now, thanks ?
Does the browser’s native time picker adjust for the user’s timezone?
In other words, will the form know what time zone they are in based on their browser?
Great work. I like the direction you guys are moving but getting to a level where I can remove Gravity Forms from my list of plugins that I have to use is still ways to go but as I said, you guys are def moving the right direction. I think the last 3/5 sites I have built have been OceanWP + Elementor.
Just to clarify, could we use this as a site registration form?
We do have a login widget, but still no sign up widget.
Do you have hidden fields to pass data through for tracking purposes or for tags with regards to marketing autiomations?
Yes, there are hidden fields, plus you can add tags with our latest integrations to marketing automations.
Hi Ben, can you provide some documentation on hidden fields in Elementor forms? I have been googling around and can’t find any.
Also, you seem to be lacking a database for storing form submissions. The one Elementor was recommend we use no longer exists. Not sure if there is a good alternative now?
I think I really have done some good karma. Coz I was, from past few days, looking for premium form plugins like Quform2, Ninja Forms, Gravity Forms and many more. And was just about to buy one of them even though I have elementor pro. I was always thinking why I am forced to buy another premium plugin to generate more leads and conversions. But I somehow comtrolled myself and used Elementor pro form widget as it was before this update and decided to wait longer before I could spend some more money.
And there it is. So glad, so thankful, so everything good that elementor brought this up just when I needed it the most. I did not want buy some fake or unreliable leads from other companies. And wanted to create some beautiful strategically placed forms on my site to create pure leads for me only.
I hope I would be able to do it well now with good SEO optimization and Elementor Pro Form Widget.
Wow, this is a major update for most of my sites! Thanks, guys!
Thanks Ben!! Elementor and these upgrades are so on point, we are already using it in ourselves and recommending it to our SEO clients – well done!
Thanks for every useful change, great work!
These are simple HTML fields. Would be nice to finally see some advanced fields, indeed.
For example conditionally shown sections, dependant on value of checkbox or select, or sections that are multiplicated by number from a number field.
Also an action of type “fire a script” would be nice to see in “Actions After Submit” section.
thanks. i did not know of that.
I love when you guys add features to help minimize the number of plugins needed for a website. Keep up the good work!
Please don’t forget about Google Analytics and Yandex Metrika goals event tracking for the forms and buttons. There is an issue about it on github from me. My subscribers asks about it almost every day.
Wow, this is really awesome! Thank you!
OUTSTANDING!! Thanks for the continuous improvements and new features!
Are you going to integrate ReCaptcha?
Very nice! Step by step I can reduce the number of plugins on a few sites! Will there be a possibility for front end post submission sometime in the future?
Is there a way to create posts in the front end with Elementor?
Anyone else have a fatal error on white page come up now?? Can’t even log in.
Ben can I integrate Mailchimp with my New Pro Forms?
Hi, Is it possierlich to cremte an PDFs file from the Form ?
Create a PDF or receive a PDF?
Great. Just what I needed. Tomorrow I will translate your Post into Spanish at webdedicado.com. I have already translated some of the posts. Planning to translate all of them for the Spanish speaking.
That is so great and helpful – thank you for spending time on this!
Advance form fields? Where is the Conditional Logic?
Ben, this is a very great upgrade! However, it just needs “conditional logic” for me to ditch gravity forms forever. Thanks for always working for the community.
Form info is sensitive and my host service provider wants me to buy SSL Certificate to encrypt form sender transmissions.
But its expensive especial over multiple site where each site is a separate charge.
Also they say Google is ranking SSL over non-SSL (all other things being equal) – a SEO benefit.
Q: Do you recommend buying SSL Certificates ?
Hi Ben, perfect timing for the form update. I was wondering if the date format can be made to read month / day/ year when using the non-html5 version. And, can the time be switched from 24 hr/military time format to display in 12 hr?
Thanks Ben and team. This is awesome.
Is it possible to run some custom PHP to populate a drop down list, based on the selection of the first value in another form field.
Next is to add post fields so that we can have user generated content too. Guessing this is on your list. Great work people.
My private hosted site threw up a fatal code today. Could it be related to the new addition?
Nice, I have been waiting for the Date field. But in it current state it doesn’t allow me to select the language for frontend use. Kind regards.
You can set it so the browser’s date picker is used, getting the language of the browser.
What about i11n of the Date field ?
It is a date picker independent of the user location.
You read my mind, yesterday I was checking plugins to setup forms with uploads and… Tachan! Here they are!… Thank you very much! Just on time!
Free plugin for Elementor stores the form submissions in a database and shows in Elementor DB in the dashboard. https://www.sean-barton.co.uk/2017/04/elementor-contact-form-db-free-plugin/. It works very well.
You can use the plugin mentioned by Jon or create a Zap (zapier.com) using webhooks to store the formdata in a Google Sheet!
that’s what we were waiting for… Thank you Ben!
The new datepicker field looked very promising but proved to be completely useless to me. The placeholder text is automatically erased when using native HTML5. Support advised me not to use native HTML5. However on mobile native HTML5 can not be disabled, so on mobile all placeholder text is gone. On mobile i find placeholder text an absolute must to keep the form length acceptable. Have to stick to text fields to enter dates. Too bad.
The following content attributes must not be specified and do not apply to the element: accept, alt, checked, dirname, formaction, formenctype, formmethod, formnovalidate, formtarget, height, inputmode, maxlength, minlength, multiple, pattern, placeholder, size, src, and width.
thanks ben – just as I checked my plugins this morning i saw on option to update elementor pro. i swear i had checked several times yesterday and it was all up to date. oh well, works now, thanks!
Maybe I missed it somewhere in another post but is there a Spam prevention option?
Hi Ben, loving all these updates! Please add MailerLite as one of the options that we can connect with for email subscriptions. I know we already have mailchimp and convertkit, but please add MailerLite as well.
1) The added form fields are: File upload, Acceptance checkbox, Date picker, Time picker, Password, and HTML.
Q) Where can I find a list of all of the allowed form fields (new and old)?
Q) What does “functionality” mean?
Q) Where can I find the an list of the current functionalities of the form fields?
Yes!! this is exactly what I need from form widget on elementor!
this is great! i needed some of these features.
however something is missing with the “Acceptance field”.
a link to the term page as acceptable.
You can simply use a html href for this.
Are they accessible from the Elementor interface as I did not see them? If not, how would we integrate? Thanks!
Hi Ben, is there any word on when this double opt in will be live on pro version?
It is great feature and I really enjoy it. I just wonder one thing that it is possible if all data is automatic save in spreadsheet and we can download it.
Ben.. why is it that I can’t see any of the new features (eg date select, autosave etc) albeit having the latest version of elementor?
Are we able to add payment (subscription and product) in the form?
No, that is not road i would like to follow. Maybe it is an option not to force native HTML5 for mobile by default, but make this an option to be selected or not. (this will lose the possibility to take the browser language) To me it is basic that if you want to use a datepicker it should be able to take the browser language and have placeholder text. Maybe i am a demanding fellow, but without these two characteristics a datepicker is of no use to me. Will stick to the text fields.
How created form like https://zapier.com/, change color every move to field.
You can add custom CSS for the focus selector to change the form field color for every move.
How can i add only text in the middle of the form – only explanation text with no field.
Hello, I am new to elementor but just purchased Pro version because of other peoples review online. Can you please guide me where can I find out all that elementor has to offer for its clients? Also any tutorials for newbies of elementor?
i don’t know why but i don’t have the option for html field.
Are You familiar with Ask Campaigns such as developed by Ryan Levesque? It’s a very popular way of marketing by asking questions to customize experience of visitor. He uses a company called Bucket.io for their specialized questionnaire system designed specifically for that, and includes data transfer to a spreadsheet program allowing deep analysis of the answers that come in. Some also say Google Forms combined with their spreadsheet allows a pretty good system, but requires a lot of customization. … SO, do you have any idea how well your form builder would perform in that function?
Thanks for adding form fields. Could you add “confirm email”?
+100 and also Conversion tracking support for Facebook & Google Adwords!!!
Fantastic. Great development work. Thank you. Your efforts are very much appreciated.
Great product, i’m very satisfied with elementor pro features, specially with the form field. But one thing is missing greatly: conditional logic. With that you’ll be ahead of to the popular form plugins, and if you include payment gateways, you’re going to bury them.
Hi Ben, loving Elementor generally and the forms are pretty cool. However, I’m struggling with documentation on injecting parameters – I’m using URL-param shortcodes and it works for options on checkboxes, select, etc… – however, I’d really like to insert it as the default value of a text field – e.g. to fill the subject line on an enquiry form based. Is this something we can do, and if not, is it something that might become available soon?
Enquiry form based? I’m sorry this might be a bit too technical to me. Can you explain exactly what you want to do? Please give concrete examples.
Hi Ben, I think @Philip Brooks means – if you have a form on page called ‘support’, for example – the subject line is auto-populated by a message title like ‘Support Wanted’ and maybe the user is logged in and therefore the email can be auto-populated by the logged in user’s email address etc.
These default values/variables would be possible to set in the form and of course the user could change them – or maybe not depending on settings. That way a logged in user can send a feedback form without having to type their email address in because we already have it.
I also use Toolset and such variables can be generated using shortcodes like [wpv-user field=”user_email”]. ‘Placeholder’ does not translate such shortcodes in Elementor forms. And the shortcode field in Advanced tab seems to be used to set the field key. But such a feature would be good to make forms even more usable. However there is a host of great form plugins out there, so you lose no stars for the lack of this feature….
Because what a fantastic job you guys are doing with this game-changer page-builder. Thanks and keep up the great work.
1. Surveys and Polls Addon?
are there any plans to intergrate with woocommerce product like gravity forms?
I am wondering if the price table widget will integrate in the future an acceptance check box.
It would be great to be able to use this check box in order to comply with the new european law, which obliges us to get the acceptance from the user of our terms and conditions, before clicking to purchase the product or service shown there.
Hi, what about a countries field autopopulated with all the world countries?
Is it possible to customize what the user sees after they submit the form? I would like the form to then disappear with a thank you (not just the check mark with form submitted) Thanks!
Any plans for a multi-step form?
DO you have it on your roadmap by any chance?
From our point of view and long analysis, Elementor is the BEST frontend pagebuilder worldwide!
If I require the users to login before submitting a post how is this possible?
are you able to take payments with Elementor forms?
Hi! Is it possible to use a select field and validate as soon as user click an option, without need to click a button? I’m trying to do a select field to change language of a website and once it is selected i want to go directly to the page in that language. Thanks!
how to create multistep form using elementor?
Question for you … is there any thought about maybe adding a option for PayPal within the forms? So then one could create a subscription form for an event or the like?
Is there a way to limit the entries on each form? Let’s say I want form 1 to only accept up to 5 entries and then its closed?
Is it possible to change the message that is shown as an answer in the “Acceptance” box? by default it shows “On”, but I would like to change it to “If I accept” or a similar text.
Is there a widget to add forms for payment? Once user selects a product, how do we close transaction through elementor tools?
Same here, i need to change that message.
Is it possible to make the file uploaded by a client to be in the attachment email instead of being a link to recover the file through our server?
i need possibility to add custom label texts in my forms, not linked to field, something like the html box but without having to deal with html/css !
how to create signup page with elementor pro any one help me.
We have a login, but still don’t have a signup widget.
Olá! Preciso colocar alguns formulários com cálculos no meu site. É possível fazer com o Elementor ou alguém conhece algum plugin de calculadora que seja compatível? Obrigada!
Hello! I need to put some forms with calculations on my website. Is it possible to do with the Elementor form? Or a plugin indication that is compatible?
At the moment it is not possible to do it with Elementor form. For forms with calculation fields you can use the Gravity Forms plugin.
Can Elementor append form data to redirect url?
I am still missing to be able to put an ACCEPTANCE FIELD in PRICING TABLES.
It would be good to comply with EU law.
Thank you for your suggestion. We will consider adding this in the future.
There is the possibility of making a field for the address. Detect the street or geolocalize the user. Could this be done? thank you very much!
I would also like the ability to be able to do custom redirects based on form responses.
This would additionally allow me to pass a tag into the HelpScout system for automating support request forwarding, kind of essential to me,….
File upload is a great feature. Can I upload excel files? They’re usually blocked by WordPress..
This is gold! Love elementor pro! But we are really missing advanced form validation… like see that the content of two fields matches (two email fields) ortwo date fields to check that the one date must be before the second. Also it would be great to also allow DDMMYY formats.
How do I enter the password value that I want guests to type into the password form?
1. What happen if I declare a date field, and I try to write something that doesn’t have anything to do with a date (ie. “hello world”, “123235434534”, etc). Is there any validation message?
2. May I customize the language of the months and days?. I need to use it the calendar in spanish.
i.e. I just want the name tag to be FNAME for an integration with a 3rd party mailing system via the web hook.
ALso wondering how to pass the form data to the redirect url? Cannot make sense of it.
A registration form widget is needed! I have been looking for a way to do this with out adding more plugins. ACF function would be really nice.
Please allow us to use conditional logic with Advanced custom Fields. The dynamic fields are good but not enough. Please!!!! It would complete my mission.
Good article, thanks. I use some of the forms on my websites, but at the last moment I switched from regular forms to form calculations. Now calculators are very popular and most of all like target customers. I create calculators through the plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/ucalc/ I tried others, but could not find a suitable one for my requirements. I believe that calculators are the best solution for customers than simple forms, especially when compared with pop-up windows.
It there any way to edit or even delete it.
Are conditional logic and multi page forms planed for the Elementor forms widget?
Yes, these features are on our roadmap.
How does one create a front-end form with Elementor Pro & ACF Pro?
Please contact our support with further details.
Hi Ben: I want to create a web form from a fillable PDF. Then I want to link a database to it and output a non-fillable PDF from it. Can Elementor help with this? If not, can you suggest an add-on that could help or the possible extra programming cost.
We all want the double optin! This is like marketing 101!! Literally the first thing anybody does when they create their landing page. Any news guys? Pleeeeaasssee????
Nice! I currently use Gravity Forms to build complex forms, and this is heading in the direction of eliminating one more plugin. The only thing I really like about Gravity Forms is that there’s a space where you can see all the entries and conversion rates for each form you set up. Useful information.
BTW, how easy would it be to implement a Zip code validation field, where users would enter a Zip code and it can validate it from a list of acceptable Zip codes where a business provides services.
How can I change the language of the required text tip “Please fill out this field”?
IF there was conditional logic in the form design I would GO PRO in a heartbeat.
How do I add a country list drop down instead of text? Also is there a way to only show the state field if the US or Canada is selected in the country field?
This Plugin is AWESOME! Thank you!
I receive the file attachment has a URL link in mail on clicking it shows internal server error. Instead is there a way to receive has PDF attachment directly.
can the form content be attached to the mail as a csv attachement?

Many careers in the computer industry are projected to experience growth during the next decade. One of the most crucial professions within the computer field is that of the computer programmer. Computer programmers take much of the technology developed by other computer professionals, and translate it into a language which allows the computer's operating system to use it.
Computer programmers work with computer software engineers and system analysts to implement advancements made in computer operating system technology. Once programs and applications have been designed by engineers and analysts, the computer programmer converts the programs into a language that the computer's operating system can understand and allow it to run the application. Computer programmers may also update or modify existing programs which have become out of date. They may also be asked to repair a computer program that has developed faults.
Computer programmers may work by themselves on simple programs that take only several hours to develop, or they may work as part of a team on complex programs which can take a year or more to develop. Some computer programmers work with specific industries, developing programs that assist that industry in their daily activities.
Computer programmers should be able to work as part of a team, but they should also enjoy working on their own. Computer programming can require imagination, and the ability to solve complex problems. Lengthy programs can require a great deal of patience to develop, and a detail-oriented personality can be very helpful. Computer operators should be able to communicate effectively by speaking and writing when they are dealing with members of their team or employers.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that in 2008 the median annual income of people classified as computer programmers was $69,620, and the top 10 percent made in excess of $111,450 annually.
Approximately 68 percent of computer programmers in 2006 had a 4-year degree and about 20 percent had a graduate degree. Due to the complexity of modern computer languages, most employers prefer that applicants have at least a four-year degree. The percentage of programmers with undergraduate and graduate degrees is expected to increase in the future due to the need for formal training to keep up with the rapid changes in the technology. Many employers also prefer that programmers have background in the employers' area of business. Scientific and engineering companies would prefer programmers to have taken courses in mathematics and engineering, while business employers are looking for programmers with courses in business and management.
Computer programmers often refresh their training to keep up with the rapid changes in the computer language technology. They may continue to take certification courses, and may return to school for 1 or 2 years to take formal classes in new technologies.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that in 2008 there were approximately 394,230 people working in positions classified as computer programmers. Many of these people work in positions with computer systems design companies and software engineering firms. Government, healthcare, and financial institutions also employed quite a few programmers.
While some professions in the computer field are projected to experience great growth during the next decade, the career opportunities in the field of computer programming are actually expected to decrease slightly, as other employees become more proficient in programming skills. The field is projected to decrease by 4 percent through 2016. Computer programmers with formal training and an undergraduate degree should continue to be able to find plentiful employment opportunities. Programmers with graduate degrees and certifications in several computer languages may continue to be in demand.

It is rarely an easy, cut-and-dry thing to borrow money for a business. More often, there are strings attached to whatever form of finances you are getting a loan through, whether they are high interest rates on straightforward business loans or returns on investments for equity investors. But when you need a business loan and want to skip the hassles of traditional lending procedures, equity investors are one of your next options. Equity investing, if carefully considered beforehand and gone into with clear communication about financial expectations, can be extremely rewarding for both the business owner and the investor. But it also has the potential to be complicated and a strain on you and your business. Here are some factors you will want to think about when stepping into the world of equity investments.
When equity investors put money into your business, they are supporting you and your financial future, but they are also taking a major risk and investing in their own future. Their success rests directly on the success of the business. If the business thrives and does well, then equity investors generally get a cut of the profits. However, if the business flops and fails to reach its expected profit margins, the equity investor also loses out.
Therefore, it is in your and your equity investor’s best interest to give your business the best possible shot at success. In the case of equity investing, it is either a win-win or a lose-lose situation.
What Do Equity Investors Get in Return?
In exchange for their financial contribution to your business, equity investors generally receive a percentage of the business profits or other benefits that are arranged prior to their investment. It is a common occurrence that equity investors receive quite a large piece of the financial pie, simply because their risk in investment is fairly substantial. Remember, if the business does not do well, neither do they.
When accepting equity investors into your business, there are a number of different ways to think about their role in the company. Consider each and choose the method that works the best with your existing business structure.
General or Limited Partnerships: While general partnerships with your equity investors are easy to achieve legally, they involve the investor taking on some liability in the company, which they may not want. In a limited partnership in which you are the general partner and the equity investor is the limited partner, you hold much liability while your investor holds very little.
Limited Liability Companies: Limited liability companies (LLCs) are fairly easy to create and maintain and hold a significant set of tax advantages. They also have the advantage of giving your company the limited liability of a corporation.
Corporations: While corporations are somewhat more challenging to set up than LLCs, they offer the option to have shareholders who do not take personal liability for the business. Corporations may also have to abide by certain corporate laws that are specific to that business structure.
As you can see, there are a number of ways to go about incorporating equity investors into your business in a safe and smart manner. By knowing exactly what you are getting yourself into, you can be better prepared for the challenges and rewards of equity investing.

I was typically late for my first meeting at Cantina Alemat, but once I arrived, and told Savio Dominici where I was (at another nearby winery, La Casaccia), he started gesticulating wildly, and kissed his own forefingers, "Aaaah! Giovanni!! His wines are fantastico!"
Over the course of 3 hours together Savio did this a few times. Instead of accepting praise for his own work he deferred to his neighbors', often believing their wines were superior to his.
But I think Savio might be selling himself short. His own winery, called Alemat (a Piemontese slang for "He's CRAZY!"), is pretty darn impressive in its own right. Only 10 years into his wine career, Savio is turning out an exceptional product.
Savio checked out of a career in heavy industry (pipe fittings) and began his small winery near Asti with a head of steam and scientific bent. His winery is simple, clean, and magnificent. On the ground floor is an infernot, a sort of hollowed out cave that are famous in the area. It was excavated in the 1850's and used for wine storage. Lots of farmhouses have them, and they are valued now as Unesco heritage sites. People come from all around to tour these by bicycle.
Savio's infernot is home to a salamander named Sally. I didn't spot her, but she hides for most of the winter. Kind of like Alemat has been hiding from the general public. But not anymore!

I've always had kind of a soft spot for the Christmas Holidays, especially when it comes to Television specials and just general Holiday Cheer on Television during this time of year..I'd like to share Video clips from Christmas shows of the past, as well as sharing Holiday Greetings Through TV Guide station ads as far back as 1953, as well as Christmas time Schedules through the years..
While we will be highlighting Christmas during December, It wont be all Christmas posts..If something else comes up, I'll write about it of course...Thanks everybody for visiting..
Thanksgiving and the day After:50 years ago..
Thanksgiving Day..November 23, 1957 Radio Listings for the Canton Repository..Click each listing to make it easier to read..
From "Your Good Neighbor" WHBC-AM/FM..Santa Claus Calls..A traditional program for the kids to send letters to read on the air..sponsored by O'Neills Department Stores..I Think I read somewhere that longtime WHBC personality Jim Roberts played "Santa" on this program..
Friday, November 24, 1957 Radio listings in the Canton Repository..By 1960, complete radio listings would go by the wayside in favor of paid station ads with program highlights..WHBC did paid ads for a few years..until 1967-68.
Today, I thought we would take a look at an even earler Thanksgiving-November 23-24, 1957..As presented in the Canton Repository..Things were very different back then..While the media certainly pushed the Holiday Shopping season, The Friday after Thanksgiving wasnt called "Black Friday" as yet..Radio stations actually waited until the day after Thankgiving to play Christmas music..and didnt play all Christmas music till later in December..The day after Thanksgiving also brought out the first sighting of "Santa Claus" or his "elves" all over the Holiday Airwaves as 1480 WHBC in Canton began "Santa Claus Calls" Nightly at 6:30 PM and WEWS-TV 5 in Cleveland brought out "Mr. Jingeling" for his second season of Holiday Cheer at least twice every weekday..
Ad for NBC's coverage of Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade on Thursday, November 28, 1963..Betty White and Lorne Greene were hosts this year as they would be every year from 1962-71. NBC has had Macy's Parade Coverage since 1952..
Apparently WAKR-TV 49 Akron was going for a new image..Carrying the full ABC Lineup..In previous years they had been known for local movies in prime time and preempting ABC or running ABC shows at other times out of pattern.
TV Guide Ad for "The Andy Williams Show" on NBC Tuesday Nights at 10PM. Other than a few guest appearances on the Jack Benny Show, Phil Harris didnt do a lot of television..The Osmonds were known as "The Osmond Brothers Quartet"..Still relatively early in their Careers..
Lets take a look at The week of November 23-29, 1963..While the schedules below reflect Wednesday and Thursday November 27-28, We'll look at some highlights of the entire week..When I copied these listings, I had no thought of what had happened at the time, namely John F.

I would like to take this opportunity to wish all a blessed and safe Thanksgiving..Over the weekend I have a TV/Radio post from November 1957 using the Canton Repository I will be working on..
I had asked at the end of the November 9 article that anyone that had any memories about watching the station or any specific facts about ownership or local hosts to contact me..Well, two of our regular readers, Sportsteve24 of the Youngstown area and John F. Zies, came through in a big way..Sportsteve24 tells us that an owner of WXTV-45 was Sanford Schafitz, founder of WWIZ-1380 Lorain, Ohio and WFAR-1470 (Now WLOA) Farrell, Pa., and the "45 Hop" Teen Dance Show was apparently hosted by "Boots" Bell, longtime Disc Jockey at WHOT-1330 Campbell/Youngstown, Ohio..
John Zies sent me this very informative E-Mail based on volumes of "Television Factbook" of which he owns most editions from 1962-1996 (Would love to own that resource)..It details power and antenna of the 1960-62 version of channel 45 as compared to 21, 27 and 33 at the time.as well as specific dates of operation, etc..
Ownership: WXTV, Inc, 803 E. Indianola Ave., Youngstown, OH. (Not very informative) This address is now home of a recording studio.
Period of Operation: November 15, 1960 to either February 28 or March 1, 1962. The two listings disagree about the end date. Obviously the TV Guide listings for March 1962 were provided before the plug was pulled.
In Akron we could receive 21, 27, 33 and the old WKST 45, but I do not remember ever seeing WXTV.
I am really enjoying your articles. Found your site through Ohio Media Watch. I lived in Akron from 1952 to 1962 and had a great interest in TV. I still remember the Cleveland VHF channel changes, the coming of WAKR-TV 49 to Akron and installing a converter box to receive it, and the construction of antennas for Youngstown reception. Hope in the future you do an article on WAKR-TV, as I have mentioned in a couple of blog responses. If I can provide any additional historical data let me know....John"
A couple of interesting points:The power of WXTV Channel 45 was flea powered compared to 21, 27, or even 33 which even today 33 is'nt very strong..with a 20 mile radius, one wonders if WXTV-45 would even make it to Alliance, Ohio on a good day..The 803 Indianola Avenue address confirms the TV Guide Channel listings..Also, assuming the March 1, 1962 date of final sign-off was corrrect, The detailed listings of March 16, 1962 never aired.. Thanks again to John F. Zies and Sportsteve for the helpful insight..
WJW-TV 8 ad for "Bozo" in December 1960..Ed Fisher, Longtime radio personality, was said to have been Cleveland's Bozo.
As indicated by the lack of programming, I could find no TV Guide Ads to represent WXTV-45..
We saw in our last post that WKST-Channel 45 had moved down the dial to channel 33 around December 1, 1959. ..That left the familiar Youngstown limeup of 21-27-33 that local viewers started getting used to..Channel 45 was basically "turned in" to the FCC..It wasnt terribly long before someone gave channel 45 a second go..This time as Independent WXTV, making Youngstown a 4-station market for about 2 years.. The biggest difference aside from loss of Network hookup (which ended up being huge) was that channel 45 had an even later sign-On time (6PM). I imagine it bacame harder, with less advertising dollars, to buy and keep any syndicated programming, old or new, as time went by. I have not been able to find out who owned this incarnation of Channel 45, but there was a permit for WXTV Channel 73 in 1965 owned by a "Community Telecasters" of Farrell, Pa. I cannot really tell if they operated WXTV 45 or not..
There is almost no information about WXTV anywhere to be found unless I pore through old Youngstown Vindicator articles.Havent the time or financial resources to really do that..
The best thing I can do is compare TV Guide Schedules from the period..We know they were on the air from at least December 3, 1960-March 16, 1962..The last day they were listed in Cleveland's TV Guide..
While WXTV had a fairly decent lineup of Syndicated Shows, They were starting already to buy fewer movies-and run them 2-3 times a week..
Here, there were a few short local shows, but the rest of the schedula was basicaly all movies-The Only filmed shows besides movies, were "Big Picture" and the like..They seemed to have a very small film library..
Another Note:In acquiring TV Guide listings, what I get date wise tends to be entuirely at Random..In both December, 1960 and June 1961 the Movies Bandido, Spring Reunion, Shanghai Story and The Showdown were shown..pointing out just how small the film library was..
Now lets look at Friday March 16, 1962. It appears to be the last date WXTV-45 was carried in Cleveland's TV Guide. By now just about all Syndicated programming was gone and all that was left was a few movies and very cheap local shows..
11PM Trial At Tara-About St. Patrick Standing Trial for converting Druids to Christianity.
Channel 45-WXTV just couldnt get anything going..After a short while it was probably obvious they were not going to make it long term..The 1964 law requiring TV sets to have UHF/VHF Tuners should have helped WXTV some and probably would have changed other later channels in the Cleveland/Youngstown Markets. While 3-16-62 is the last day of TV Guide listings, it May have stayed on the air longer..The grand Y-Town Independemt TV experiment had pretty much failed..
Channel 45 remained silent from late 1962-1973 when Akron, Kent State and Youngstown State Universities appropriated channel 45, now licensed to Salem/Alliance, Ohio as WNEO-PBS WEAO-49 was added in 1975..both stations simulcast as PBS 45/49 In Akron-Canton/Youngstown, Ohio. Incidentally, in the mid 1950's both 45 and 49 were ABC in Youngstown/Akron at the same time..
Finally, anyone that has any memories of WXTV-45 from 1960-62..or inforation about the station more specifically as far as programming, personalities, etc..It would be appreciated very much..Plese contact me through ny e-mail or blog comments..
TV Guide Ad in 1968 for the "Dan Ryan Report" Ryan would end up as WKBN-AM 570's morning show host for many years..
Early in the Blog, at the end of April/First part of May 2007 we shared the formative years of Youngstown TV with the sign-on of WKBN-27 and WFMJ-21 (at first 73)..Now we'll take a look at a little bit of later Youngstown TV History..
Some background: WKBN, while primarily CBS, carried generous portions of ABC and DuMont TV schedules, some shows in non-prime time hours..October 30, 1957 brought the establishment of WKST-TV channel 45 in New Castle, Pa. The Youngstown Market's first ABC affiliate..As noted in the May 10-16, 1958 TV Guide Pittsburgh Edition, no less than 9 of the 12 listed stations in places like Altoona, Clarksburg, Steubenville/Wheeling, Johnstown, and of course Pittsburgh and Youngstown, were at least partial ABC affiliates. So WKST-45 technically became the first full time ABC affiliate in Western Pennsylvania, a few months before WTAE-TV 4 Pittsburgh signed on..
WKST-45 was the third UHF in a UHF Market..ABC was just starting to establish itself and still didnt have much to go on ratings wise compared to NBC and CBS..45 did carry ABC in pattern pretty much at this time..
3;30 Do You Trust Your Wife?
WKST stayed on Channel 45 through at least most of 1959. Between November 28-December 3, 1959 the station had moved to channel 33, still as WKST but relicensed to Youngstown..
By 1964 Channel 33's call letters were changed to WYTV..Local News began with Paul Burke at 11PM weeknights by this time..Also, by 1964 Barney Bean had begun a long run as Children's Host..
9:30 Dateline:Youngstown-Charles DeVault-Live talk show-This may have mutated into "Good Morning Youngstown" with Gary Cubberly and Cindy Ikins by the mid-1970's..I remember watching "GMY"
WKST/WYTV's first location was the First Federal Plaza in New Castle then moving to 3800 Shady Run Road, Youngstown by 1959..They are still located there.
WYTV is also notable for being the Youngstown home of Cleveland Indians Baseball in the 1960's and 70's, as well as Y-Town's first Fox affiliate from 1994-98..They have recently been sold to Parkin Brodcasting, and are now in a "shared services" agreement with WKBN-27..Their digital service is MyTV Youngstown which carries the My Network and WYTV News, and some retro programming..
Next:WXTV 45..A try at an Independent in the Youngstown area..
Here, courtesy of YouTube poster conanconquer, is the first minute or so of Barnaby's final telecast on WUAB-TV Channel 43 Lorain-Cleveland airing March 30, 1990 at 9AM. Here, Linn Sheldon completed about 42 years on television in the Cleveland area. He hosted dozens of shows, including talk/interview shows, entertainment and kids shows, Movie Hosting duties and in his earliest days, he even read the next days schedule on WEWS-TV 5 in 1948-49. Rogers Jewelers sponsored a 3-day a week record pantomime show by Sheldon, which was said to be the first sponsored show in Cleveland.
For all his talent, and everything he did in Television, he will be always remembered as "Barnaby", children's host for the better part of 33 years on KYW/WKYC-TV 3 and WUAB-43..It was said he could take a prop chest and with no script, "wing" a show when neccessary. He had that kind of talent..
After living in Florida briefly, Linn came back to Cleveland to enjoy his retirement among family and friends. Gray Publishing produced his Memoir, "Barnaby And Me"..in 1999.
Linn Sheldon passed away at the age of 86 April 23, 2006.
"If anybody calls, tell them Barnaby said hello. Tell them I think that you are the nicest person in the whole world. Just you.."
This is the only known video available of Barnaby on YouTube. Again, thanks to Conanconquer for originally posting it..

Lesson 18: "Be Strong and of a Good Courage"
Reading and studying the scriptures make us conscious of the many conditional promises made by the Lord to encourage obedience and righteous living. Israelite history is filled with examples of covenants, which constitute one of the central themes of the Old Testament--the promises of God made in exchange for the commitments of the prophets and the people.
Several experiences in the life of Joshua are instructive to us today regarding the importance placed by the Lord on keeping commitments and on being committed to following the commandments and direction he has given.
"As I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
Joshua would need courage for what he had to do. He would need the Lord's help at every step. Here is a commitment of the Lord to provide that help. With faith in the Lord, Joshua could now go forward, knowing that the Lord would direct him in the way he should go. Joshua knew that his obedience would bring success, and although he did not know exactly how he would succeed, he now had confidence in the result.
Soon after, when Joshua was directed to destroy the city of Jericho that lay before them, the great walls of the city stood as an imposing and physically impossible barrier to Israel's success--or at least so it seemed. Not knowing the means, but assured as to the end, Joshua carried out the instructions he had been given by a messenger of the Lord. His commitment was to complete obedience. His concern was to do precisely as he was instructed, that the promise of the Lord would be fulfilled. The instructions no doubt seemed strange, but his faith in the outcome urged him on. The result, of course, was another in a long series of miracles experienced by the Israelites as they were led over many years by Moses, by Joshua, and by many other prophets who were committed to follow the commandments and the directives of the Lord.
Here was a great statement of full commitment of a man to God; of a prophet to the desires of the Lord; of Joshua the man to his God, who had many times previously blessed his obedience. He was telling the Israelites that regardless of how they decided, he would do what he knew was right. He was saying that his decision to serve the Lord was independent of whatever they decided; that their actions would not affect his; that his commitment to do the Lord's will would not be altered by anything they or anyone else would do. Joshua was firmly in control of his actions and had his eyes fixed on the commandments of the Lord. He was committed to obedience.
We have, then, examples from the scriptures of how we should consider and evaluate the commandments of the Lord. If we choose to react like Joshua, and Abraham, and Rebekah and Rachel, our response will be, simply, to go and do the thing that the Lord has commanded.
I pray that we will have the strength to decide now to do what we ought to do. I pray that we will decide now to serve the Lord. In the name of Jesus Christ, amen.

For the last 18 years, I've been hearing Germans talk about where they renew their mental strength, where they recharge their batteries. For lots of Europeans--not just Germans--the place to do this is on a beach; but for lots of others, this place is the mountains. You're either one or the other, unless you're the sort of person who likes mountains that ram right out of the sea, I guess.
I'm not a cat or a dog person; I'm a cow person. I'm a Heidi-loving, yodeling mountain person, but I still don't understand the concept of recharging my batteries in them. I've just come back from six days of hiking in Zillertal (Austria), and I'm pooped. Have you been to Zillertal? If you're from the US, chances are you haven't. You've probably been to Salzburg for a couple of hours because it was easy to reach from Munich, but did you dig deeper into Austria? Did you have a Tiroler Gröstl--an enormous plate of fried potatoes with bacon bits, onions and a fried egg on top? No? Did you climb every mountain? And ford every stream? No?
You should. Austria, or at least the west part of Austria, is like an accordion of Alps, each valley prettier, quainter and more expensive than the next (unless you go backwards, I guess; then each valley would be less pretty and less quaint and cheaper--yay!--than the next). All the houses are straight out of The Sound of Music, and there are little girls singing 'Do-Re-Mi' EVERYWHERE. It's truly freaky.
OK, though freaky, most of that last part is not true, but there is an awful lot of traditional music being played by smiley men in lederhosen. And there are the ever-present cows. We stayed in a little miss-it-and-hit-a-cow-if-you-blink town called Gerlos. It's way up in the mountains and takes around nine pop songs to reach from the autobahn--many more if there's been a motorcycle accident. And there are many.
I'd like to think of Gerlos as the Little India of Austria. Cows are certainly sacred here. They roam the streets freely and poop wherever they want. Gerlos is theirs; we are mere visitors. But they do high-tail it out of your way if you honk.
We should have stayed in another town. Every time we set off for our hike in the mornings, we had to drive back down that stupid mountain. I say 'stupid' affectionately. I am a mountain person after all. If you're planning to go hiking in Austria, take into consideration where you'd like to hike first, and then book your pension/hotel nearby. Maps may be deceiving. It may take you twelve or even twenty pop songs to reach the next town if you have to drive up and down a mountain--behind cyclists, ever-present cows and motorcycle accidents--to get there. We--and when I say 'we', you know I mean Alberto the Spanish Barber's Consultant--didn't plan very well this time. 'Our' planning was crap.
You'll spend less money on petrol if you stay close to the mountain you want to slog up--but not down. We pass so many people on the way up who obviously did not walk up the mountain. How do we know this? They smell really pretty and are wearing the wrong shoes. You should never walk down the mountain unless the path is relatively flat. If the path is steep going up, you'll be doing your knees no favors by walking back down. Take the ski lift back down. It will set you back around 12 euros per person, but your knees will pay you back later.
Most of the enclosed ski lifts operate during the summer months, but you'll be disappointed to find that some of the larger ones run only in the winter months, when this part of Austria is booming. In summer, the chair lifts only work for the cows. They ride them up from the valley when they're done annoying the drivers in Gerlos.
Sadly, I'm finished hiking until September unless Alberto the Spanish Barber's Consultant forces me to go hiking tomorrow. He claims his batteries are still half empty. I'd like to think mine are half full. I'd also like to think that lounging around the house tomorrow, writing, reading and daydreaming about cows will also charge my batteries. How do you recharge your batteries?
This line of cars has stopped to let cows cross the road.

Great photos! Love the town cows going about their daily business in Gerlos. The details in this post remind me of hiking up and down the Schauinsland im Schwarzwald. Fortunately, there was a choice of ways to get down, and I took the middle choice: a mostly easy zig-zagging path through the forests and fields.
Hi, Chris! We took a couple of easy, zig-zagging paths down this time as well. The lifts were so expensive, and we weren't in a hurry.
Oh, goodness. I'll have to check that. Either way, you're getting a book. Have you already got Dorothee LAng and Smitha Murthy's book Worlds Apart?
Hi, Inka! I agree. The mountains aren't for everyone. I think we all have to figure out where we fill our tanks.
No, I don't have Worlds Apart yet, but have been wanting to read it for a while now.
Thanks for reading through A-Z, Chris!
Thank you for placing Austria on my trekking radar! Truly loved the article! If your photographs are any indication as to how Austrians do it, I may take the local approach and walk up with plans to summit and fly down ! If nothing else, it will keep me from having to compete with Xavier, Inga and Trudy for a seat on the lift!
Hi, Mary! Thank you for stopping by!
That cow at the top is totally flaunting herself. Shameless.
I know! And then she farted really loudly. Very attractive.
wow, amazing shots! Such beautiful colors & details...very nice!

This is a graphical walkthrough of the Seed Load process. It contains limited technical information. For technical information about the Seed Load process, please see the Comet Backup Usage > Seed Load section.
On the Comet backup client application, create a new "Local Path" Storage Vault. This will initially represent the seed device, and will later represent the remote device.
Perform a backup to that Storage Vault.
Now we have successfully backed up the data to the seed load device and the next step is to bring that data to your Comet server.
WARNING: This new bucket is currently unused. It will be used soon, but if you have Constellation enabled and deleting unused buckets, then Constellation may delete the bucket before the seed load process is finished. You should set the Constellation option to prevent it deleting unused buckets, and re-enable it only after the Seed Load process is complete.
Navigate to vault's data on the seed device and move the content into the new Bucket's data directory.
By default, the Bucket's data directory will either be (A) empty, or (B) contain only empty directories. Do not continue if the paste operation warns you that files will be overwritten.
Change the Storage Vault in the Comet backup client settings to point to the Bucket.
It's very important that you change the existing Storage Vault, not create a new Storage Vault, because the data is encrypted with properties from this specific Vault.
Test backup/restore from the Storage Vault's new location.

The Senate-approved school funding plan will be voted on in the House on Thursday and KASB urges educators to contact their legislators and encourage them to support it.
“This is not a done deal. Legislators need to hear from you,” said KASB’s Associate Executive Director Mark Tallman.
Movement on school finance occurred Wednesday after a series of contentious meetings of the House-Senate conference committee.
Ultimately, House K-12 Education Budget Chair Kristey Williams, R-Augusta, said the full House would vote on the funding levels contained in SB 142, which includes four years of increases and the inflation adjustment cited by the Kansas Supreme Court and endorsed by Gov. Laura Kelly and the State Board of Education.
The Senate conferees, led by Senate Education Chair Molly Baumgardner, R-Louisburg, refused to go along with a plan by Williams that provided less funding than SB 142. But the Senate did agree to a couple of minor policy provisions proposed by the House in the amended SB 16. That means, if the Conference Committee Report on SB 16 is approved by the House, it must go back to the Senate for consideration. Passage there is considered likely since the Senate approved its funding levels in SB 142 by a 32-8 vote last month.
Legislators are running out of time to work on school finance. First adjournment is set for Friday and the state must provide legal briefs on a legislative remedy to the Kansas Supreme Court by April 15.
Some of the policy provisions in the Conference Committee Report on SB 16 include extending the dyslexia commission, moving up a state audit to 2020 on bilingual weighting, making some changes on a private school tax credit program and other minor changes.
In other business, SB 7, which allows school boards to designate a date to appoint their officers, was placed into the SB 130 Conference Committee Report and may be voted on Thursday or Friday.
For a wrap-up of Wednesday’s events, go here.
