Surprising Examination of an Overfamiliar Idea.
A person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices; especially : one who regards or treats the members of a group (as a racial or ethnic group) with hatred and intolerance. Like hating Christians? Or Islamic peoples? Or White people? Or Irish. I do not hate anyone because of their race or religion but I do hate the Israeli policy over Gaza. So do many Israelis like Dr Finkelstein. I hate the American policy over Afghanistan, Iraq and Iran. I love Mahatma Gandhi. I think he is cool. I do hate Zion supremacists for their arrogant ‘god’s chosen people’ lie: they are evil. Zionists are world criminals. They have financed all the wars of history. They have massive amounts of blood on their hands. They think to murder nations and slaughter millions for profit is good. Come out of her as betrayal of her is honourable to the Universal rights of all men.
He was labeled a bigot after making some offensive comments. The role of art is sometimes however, to offend people. Being so labelled note, does not make it so. It is all about having new ideas.
who hasn’t entertained a new thought in years. I have lots of new thoughts ever day. Important ones too.Bigot is related to the idea of someone with firmly held views that they wont budge on. They think their champion, be it Marx or Freud, is an irreproachable genius, and will not entertain any other view on their chosen God. Atheists can be bigots, so can liberals. A bigot is likely to be boorish: he loves the sound of his own voice. It is not only views that are new he cannot stand. it is even the voice, writing or mode of expression of those views he cannot stand. The bigot is generally narrow minded with limited understanding or appreciation seemingly for anything other than those limited ideas. No matter how advanced the pet ideas are, the ignorance of how they play their part in the whole range of human ideas, experience, spirituality and objectives is unsophisticated. A liberal with very fixed ideas – even if they are the most fashionable ideas, one can hold them too dogmatically and rigidly. Good ideas can be bigoted ones. It depends on the flexibility towards others in relation to those ideas. Others must believe them or else is the attitude, in the heart, of the bigot; they do not relent inside themselves towards others. It is horrible to be so regarded. And extremely inapt in the teaching situation. Since a bigot would never allow that other ideas have value. Or grant that there may be weaknesses in his own position. Since his own world consists entirely on hearing his own voice mouth his inanities endlessly because inwardly he lacks real faith in them. He is just a poor boy picking his nails ceaselessly waiting for the bell to go home. His world one of the lonely unrequited professional student whose working class red brick token scholarship ever nears running out. Thus grimly holds onto the thesis topic for dear life. Believing in it in so far that thus far it has batted off every other miserable contender for his job.
The most bigoted thing one hears is invariably ‘you are a bigot!’ which closes off dialogue precisely because they will not entertain new ideas. So then who is the bigot in that situation. Obviously it is the person who declares that offensive remark to others. O, what an ever decreasing circle of irrelevant ideas do they inhabit. An intellectual bigot to me is a person who has a limited range of reading in his background, well read in his favourite topics he has ignored all others as a waste of time. And it shows.
Sexism is itself sexist in that the ‘perpetrator’ is always assumed to be male.Thus the idea and concept is bigoted and sexist. It almost never examines the new idea that the bigot may be female.
New idea: good racism- the preference for ones own kind.
Who said only white people can be racist. Surely a racist said that.
Voltaire said that of those that one cannot speak; there lies power.
Everyone begrudges capitalism and patriarchy yet no one speaks the name of the one capitalist group set on its own white supremacy in the centre of the middle east living in a racist apartheid state that is so economically powerful globally that it has the empire of the United States do its own dirty work for them: we all dread, fear and cannot love them, yet no one calls them out by name. Who are they? They doggedly insist on their own view and way everywhere. Like a bigot. I pity them. No new information flows into their hearts.

I’ll admit it: I’m a meathead.
My more than 30-year career in and around the meat industry has given me many up-close engagements with the world of meat—from farming and production to processing and packaging to retailing and marketing. That’s why I’m looking forward to the 2018 Annual Meat Conference this weekend, hosted in my hometown of Nashville, Tennessee. The conference will provide attendees with a jam-packed weekend of networking, learning, connecting, and immersing themselves in this innovative and essential industry. Today, we’ll look at a few exciting meat-centric trends sure to be on display at the AMC this weekend.
This trending focus is an opportunity for meat producers to showcase their high ethical standards, environmental consciousness, and commitment to quality in their offerings. Expect to see responsibility and sustainability communicated from many conscientious meat companies exhibiting at the conference.
Younger, diverse consumers (Millennials and Gen Z in particular) are increasingly eager to try new flavors and buy meat products chock-full of assertive spices and seasonings.
Great news for foodies with a love for big, bold tastes and global flavor profiles. Look for new smoky, spicy, sweet, savory, and even boozy additions to sausage, deli meat, and prepared food product lines.
As is typical early in the year—and will likely continue strong through beach vacation season—many consumers are focused on re-booting their diets to incorporate healthier choices. Enter popular programs like The Whole30, a thirty-day, Paleo-friendly diet challenge that promises myriad positive results, including conquering problematic cravings and improving blood sugar levels. Carnivores can cooperate with this meat-friendly meal plan that urges participants to seek out grass-fed, pastured, and other “clean label“ varieties of animal protein.
For utmost convenience, the pre-portioned meal-kit company Blue Apron has partnered with The Whole30 to deliver plan-compliant meals to subscribers currently on the elimination diet. Another enterprising company, DNX Foods, has developed Whole30-approved meat-and-superfood bars made with grass-fed beef and bison and free-range chicken. These initiatives reveal an opportunity for meat companies to seize the moment and provide high-quality protein that today’s health-conscious consumers demand.
Let’s look forward to the creativity, celebration, connection, and carnivorous camaraderie this weekend has in store. Happy Foodie Friday!
While we’re sure to see and discuss many innovations in the meat industry in the coming days, nothing quite touches the science-fiction level of technological invention the folks at the start-up JUST are attempting with “cellular agriculture”—a.k.a. lab-grown meats. Check out this fascinating article to learn how these savvy food scientists are making meat from the most fundamental raw materials yet—the animals’ cells!

“Your child is terminally ill; there is nothing we can do for your child.” A diagnosis like this means a huge change for the family. Every year, more than 4000 children in Germany are diagnosed with life-shortening conditions. These conditions affect the whole family and very often lead to a feeling of overload and collapse – nothing will ever be the same again. Caring for the diseased child is the first priority and, at the same time, everything else becomes less important.
Very often months, sometimes even years, pass between the diagnosis and the death of a child. This time is also very exhausting for both the childs parents and siblings. In order to provide support for the families, Balthasar was set up in September 1998 as Germanys first childrens hospice.
Life without a future – This is what young adults with life-shortening conditions have to face, but still want to make the most of.
Being terminally ill means becoming more and more dependent on the support of others – a contradiction to what young adults usually strive for, and thus an enormous burden.
Balthasar young adults hospice wants to support young adults to maintain as much normality as possible despite their limitations.
Our highest priority is to maintain the young adults quality of life!
Balthasar was Germanys first young adults hospice, opening in 2009.
Balthasar young adults hospice is a bright, vibrant and comfortable house with four beds. Spacious rooms and hallways allow young adults in wheelchairs a lot of room to move.
There is an elevator in the house which ensures access to all floors. The childrens hospice – and with it all its facilities and activities – is accessible via a hallway.

“Russia has already lived through one colored revolution — a red one,” Vsevolod Chaplin said on Saturday in a speech to leaders of the Nashi youth movement at their summer camp on Lake Seliger, northwest of Moscow, Interfax reported.
“Russia will not survive a new revolution,” said Chaplin, who is the church’s deputy head for external relations.
Nashi, or Us, is seen by many as a Kremlin-orchestrated effort to build a bulwark against a potential popular uprising in the run-up to the 2008 presidential election. The group gained attention shortly after its founding in April for its aggressively patriotic rhetoric and the staging in May of a rally in Moscow attended by 50,000 people…According to Nashi head Vasily Yakemenko, the movement currently has more than 150,000 members nationwide.
He notes that various groups on the fringes of society have been encouraged by official backing for a struggle against foreign influences and now believe they can engage in violence against them without any risk of being punished for such actions – as many of them have been able to do in recent months.
“Foreign influence” was Ryakhovsky’s complaint against the “Orange Revolution”, it’s worth remembering.
…”Nashi” leadership added that among those sympathizing with fascism and thus dangerous for Russia and especially the country’s youth are Duma members Irina Khakamada and Vladimir Ryzhkov, Yabloko youth leader Ilya Yashin, chess champion-turned-political activist Garri Kasparov, and Yukos co-counder Leonid Nevzlin.
The group’s efforts to attach the epithets fascist or fascist sympathizers to virtually anyone who opposes President Vladimir Putin’s current course has lead many of those placed on this latest Russian “enemies” list to dismiss it as absurd or as exemplifying the very problem that “Nashi” leaders say they are fighting against.

It’s what makes The Catcher in the Rye so good: a teenager can so clearly see the inauthenticity in everyone around him. I realized today, when looking up the spelling, that phoniness is also a big part of my novel. Who are you if you’re born in a place you should not have been born? What if someone else made the mistake – how do you fix it?
I’m a phony when I go to a bar and I dance and my arms don’t know what to do. I’m a phony when I stand in front of a classroom and talk about historical events (or current ones!) I’m a phony when I put exclamation marks in my text messages and when I wear a small bikini on the beach and when I drive with my arm hanging out the window.
Phoniness is everything that feels wrong but you find yourself doing because we’re monkeys and we mimic. A good formula to stop being a phony is to close your eyes and start dancing.
I like that. Your music could be so far away that you haven’t heard it yet, but somewhere out there it’s playing. Maybe you have to go back to where you came from or maybe you have to find the place where you are going, and it is there that the music will be playing.
Noticing that the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction is entirely American, and that I am not, I decided to challenge the challenge by also reading a Governor General Literary Prize winning book from each decade. I won’t read one for the 1920s because the award was first given out in 1936. Below is the list I will choose from. Once again, please give me any recommendations from any decade, and also any recommendations on Pulitzer books too.
The beauty is that I could one day be eligible for this one. The beauty is also that I can compare decades in America and Canada. The beauty is also Canada itself.

If your household is one of the many, many homes in the United States that acquired a pet this Christmas you received a gift that you and your family will enjoy for years. In fact, it probably already feels like the pet is a part of the family. However, like any other member of the family that new dog or cat will need to be taken care of. In this article we will help you budget for the new member of your family.
If you welcomed a puppy and kitten into your household this Christmas they will already have grown noticeably. In fact, they have probably doubled in size already and you may also notice that they have pretty ferocious appetites for their small size. The costs of feeding your pet and giving it the care it deserves can add up pretty quickly so the sooner you start factoring these costs into your monthly budget the better.
If the new addition to your family is a small animal such as a rabbit or a hamster, then it certainly won’t break the bank. However, dogs, and even cats, can be notoriously expensive.
Dogs are hugely popular at Christmas and now that you are into the New Year the true cost of keeping one is probably becoming apparent. It is probably still a puppy now, but towards the end of this year it will be fully grown and will be much harder to control. For this reason you should start saving towards the cost of dog training. This can be quite expensive but it is well worth it for the peace of mind it gives, especially if it is a large dog. You can rest assured that it will do what its told, and it will be much less likely to run away or cause damage or injury.
Prices for dog training vary, but as a rough guide four weeks of training will cost in the region of $2,000. This would usually consist of two hours training a day, five days a week for four weeks. This should be enough to have an average dog very well trained. If you feel this is above your budget you should at the very least buy a good dog-training book. A good dog-training book shouldn’t cost you much more than $20 or $30.
Training is a once-off cost. More important is preparing for the monthly costs of keeping an animal. It is estimated that an average dog will cost somewhere in the region of $12,000 dollars to keep over a 12-year life to feed. This does not take into account vet bills, medicine, toys, and other equipment such as kennels. In reality, you should be setting aside about $2,000 every year to keep a dog healthy and happy. Cats will be a little cheaper, but not significantly, at about $1,400 per year.
These estimates cover basic costs. However, owning a pet can get just about as expensive as you want to make it. If you want to dress your dog up in designer outfits then prepare to pay the price. Also, if you travel you may need to pay for a pet passport, micro-chipping, quarantine and other costs.
Another thing you may want to consider is pet insurance. This needn’t be expensive and will cover costs if your pet becomes ill or is stolen. If you have had a pet for a while you will be well aware that those vet bills soon add up so it could save you money in the long run.
Pet insurance policies can vary significantly both in terms of cost and quality, but for the most part you get what you pay for. Be sure to read the small print so you know exactly what you are or are not getting. A basic policy that covers illness should be quite cheap, but you may be offered all manner of optional extras. Some policies will cover the costs of advertising and a reward if a pet is lost or stolen. Others, will even cover the cost of counseling for family members if the pet dies or is lost.
So, if you got a dog for Christmas you should be at least setting aside about $200 dollars a month if you really want to look after it well. This is a significant extra cost on top of your normal monthly budget. However, when you think of the fun and happiness the new member of the family will bring to your home it is money well spent.

Reading is a serious business. It takes precious, irrecoverable, finite time to devote yourself to a book. In doing so, you make an active decision to press pause on your ordinary life so as to step into another world, another place, another time.
WHY THEN, WOULD YOU CHOOSE TO CONTINUE READING SOMETHING THAT IS NOT ONLY UNINSPIRING BUT FRUSTRATINGLY DISAPPOINTING?
I often have this debate with my partner, who has as ferocious a reading habit as me, but who methodically ploughs his way through his wish list, even when he complains about the plot holes, inconsistencies and poor dialogue.
I admire his commitment to finishing everything he starts, it’s a noble demonstration of his respect for the writer who’s spent their time and energy creating the book he reluctantly holds and a mark of his stubborn dedication.

Why Jesus Christ Died And Rose Again!
It is revealed that Jesus was “Emmanuel,” that is, “God with us,” God in human flesh. He was both God and man, divine as well as human. Can God die? Was Jesus really dead, or did only His body die? Was Jesus the divine One alive during the three days and three nights in the tomb? If so, what, then, is the need of the resurrection?
This is a question that has perplexed millions. It is an enigma that has never been made clear and plain to mankind. Yet the Scriptures give us a clear revelation to plain, simple words, if we can believe the Scriptures, which is to believe they mean exactly what they say.
We read, “Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures” (I Corth. 15:3).
Christ means “Anointed” or “Messiah,” and while the name Jesus may be used to denote the human name, the title Christ certainly refers to the divine One, the One who was God with us. The Scripture says He died and was buried. And it was he, the Christ, the divine One, who rose from the dead. He did not rise from life or a living state, but from death!
“For to this end Christ both died and rose and revived that he might be Lord both of the dead and living” (Rom 14:9). There is the answer. Through His death and resurrection Christ became Lord of the dead as well as the living. He paid the penalty for our past sins. He made possible the way so that both the dead and those now living might have life eternal, not mere temporary existence, but life everlasting.
When Christ rose, He was revived (lived again). When a boxer is knocked out, the attendants work over him to revive him. The expression that Christ was (revived) indicates Christ had been unconscious, that He was dead, not that He rose from a state of conscious mental activity. “For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly, while we were still sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:6, 8).
Notice again: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God” (John 1:1). The Greek Word is Logos. It means “Word” or “Spokesman.” This is referring to the One who coexisted with the Father from eternity, who always existed, who is one with the Father, yet as He Himself said, “His Father is greater than He.” Christ always referred to Himself as One sent by the Father. He said, “that the words He spoke were not spoken of Himself, but the Father who sent Him gave Him a commandment what He should say and speak.” The one who gives the orders and sends another is in a position superior to the one sent, and who obeys the orders.
A husband is set by God in a position superior in the family relationship, to that of the wife. Yet they are both human, they are one. Not one God, but one flesh.
In God’s Church or local congregation, an elder is in authority during a service that all things may be done decently and in order, and he has the rule over the congregation. Yet Christ prayed that the Church would be kept as one, even as He and the Father are one. The Church is composed of many members, yet one body. And its members, more than one, are to be kept one in the sense of harmony and unity in love and purpose, as Christ and the Father are one, and they form one Church, even as the Father and Christ form one God, yet more than one member or one person.
The names of Christ have always been, whether names or titles, words that describe what He is. Most frequently He is called Yahweh, erroneously translated in the American Standard Version Jehovah. In the Authorized Version it is rendered Lord. Today we do not know either the correct spelling or pronunciation of this name, it was regarded as so sacred it was never pronounced in ancient Judah, any more than a son who properly honors his father would call him by his first name. Yet we know it’s meaning, it means “the Eternal” or the One in whom is inherent life. It signifies, One who possess life inherent from eternity to eternity.
He also is called Yahveh-rophecha, God your healer. He gave His name to Moses as “I Am,” That is the One who is, who exists, who has life inherent in Himself!
He also is the Word, or Spokesman, God is Creator, but the Father created all things by and through Jesus Christ, the Word.
He (Christ) is the One who spake and it was done. He is the One who said, “Let there be light,” and the Holy Spirit (the spiritual essence or power that emanates from both Father and Son) moving upon the face of the water performed the command and “there was light.” Yet Christ spoke, or commanded only what the Father had commanded Him. Father, Word and Holy Spirit combined in perfect harmony in creation!
Now, the Logos, the Word was God. “The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him. In Him was life and the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us” (John 1:2-4, 14).
Notice the Word who was the Eternal, the Everliving, in whom was life, eternal life, by whom all things were made and created, the very God Himself, He was made flesh. Notice He did not merely enter into some mortal fleshly body, the body of another. He was not separate from the flesh, as One inside the flesh. It says in plain language, if we believe the Scriptures, if we believe it means what it says, it says He was made flesh! But though human, He did have, from birth, what we may receive as God’s gift by grace, the indwelling of God’s Spirit, that He, even as we might be resurrected from the dead and given by the Father immortal life. That is, converted back into spiritual immortality so that He by the resurrection once again became divine spirit, or very God! Thus he made the same resurrection possible for us, that we may also become divine sons of God.
Yes, Jesus Christ was a fleshly man. He was God come in human flesh. And when converted into human flesh, the life that kept Him alive resided in the blood as in all who are flesh (Lev. 17:1). The breath oxidizes the blood and is called the “breath of life,” of animal or human life.
Jesus was also God. He was both human and divine. But He was not God inside of, yet separate from the body of flesh. He, God was made flesh, until He, still God, God with us, became God in (not inside of) the human flesh. God, manifest in the flesh (I Tim. 3:16). “Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same” (Heb. 2:14).
That is, as we humans are partakers of flesh and blood, Jesus Christ, also in exactly the same manner was partaker of flesh and blood. And why? That He might die! (Heb. 2:14-17). Jesus Christ came, not in the nature of angels. Angels are of the spirit nature. He was a human being. He was made flesh, made human. He took on, at birth, human nature. He was tempted in all points like we are. He suffered as we do. He was forced to resist the pull of human nature, even as you and I. He, God, became man, man so that He could die for us, that our sins might be erased and forgiven!
Jesus Died! Jesus was dead! And for three day and three nights the second person of the Godhead, Emmanuel, God with us, God made human flesh, was Dead!
And dead matter cannot impart life. Life can come only from life. As a human, Jesus was the Son of God the Father. God was His only Father. Mary was His mother. He became the Son of man at His human birth. And now He was dead, yes, dead! If He was not dead, then the penalty of your sins is not yet paid. You are yet in your sins. You are without hope! But Jesus was DEAD!
If there were no other person in the Godhead, then the giver of all life was dead and all hope was at an end! If there were no Father in heaven while Jesus Christ lay dead - His blood, pouring from His veins given for you and for me - then all human life everywhere would be doomed.
But the Father still reigned in high heaven! And the Father had life inherent in Himself! Life can only come from life! And Jesus Christ was now dead! His life had gone from Him, poured out on Calvary’s stake, poured out from His veins. That’s where His life resided, in His blood, not in spirit. He did not shed a spirit to save us from our sins. He shed His blood and in so doing gave His life.
But, “as the Father has life in Himself, so He granted the Son to have life in Himself” (John 5:26). God the Father raised Jesus from the dead!
Now notice carefully: God the Father did not cause Jesus Christ to get back into the body that had died. Some seem to believe that it was only the body that died, that Christ never died, that Jesus Christ was alive and preached to spirits in prison during the three days and nights His body was dead. What they believe is that a body Christ lived in died, but Christ Himself never died. Christ was God and, they argue, could not die!
What they have failed to realize is that Christ had given up His immortal life inherent in divine glory and He had been converted into human mortality for the purpose of death. If they are right, they are lost and doomed to eternal punishment. If Christ did not die for their sins, if it was only a mortal body that died, then we have no Savior, and are lost.
What happened is that the Logos, the Word, the Eternal was made flesh. He was converted into, changed into flesh. Now He was flesh and blood exactly as you and I. His life was in His blood, and He gave His life by the fact His blood poured out while He was on the stake! He had taken on a human nature. He was God, but now God changed into flesh and blood, God with us, Emmanuel!
Yes, the Word was made flesh, and He was flesh and blood, not just an immortal spirit in a body of flesh and blood. We may argue that God is immortal and could not die. But the Scriptures reveal that God so “loved us that while we were yet sinners,” the Eternal, the Logos, who was with God and who was God in the second person permitted Himself voluntarily to be changed into a flesh and blood man, until He became human who could and did die.
But God the Father, God in the first person still reigned in high heaven, and He raised Jesus from the dead, not from life. It was Christ Himself who was dead. He was revived. Nowhere does the Scripture say He was alive and active, or that God had Him get back into the human body that had died and was now resurrected.
And the resurrected body was no longer human; it was the Christ resurrected immortal, once again changed! As He had been changed, converted into mortal human flesh and blood, subject to death, and for the purpose of dying for our sins, now by a resurrection from the dead, He was again changed, converted, into immortality, and He is alive for-evermore! Now a Living Savior, not a dead Savior. He was dead, but only for three days and three nights.
Do you realize what a tremendous price was paid that you might be released from the death penalty of your sins? The very Eternal, the Spokesman of the Godhead and very God Himself, permitted Himself to be changed into a mortal human, stepped down, descended to the human plane, suffered, was tempted, persecuted, despised, rejected of men, nailed to a stake and died!
If Jesus had been only human, His death could have paid the penalty for but one other person who had incurred that penalty by transgression of God’s spiritual law (Rom. 6:23). Since God the Father created all things by Jesus Christ (Col. 1:16), and since all things, including man, were made by Jesus Christ, He is our Maker and therefore God and His life that He gave was of greater value than the total of all human beings (John 1:1-3).
He died and for three days and nights was dead! He, who was in the beginning, and was God. He stooped to human level; submitted to death, trusted the Father to restore Him to life! That is the price paid for you and for me. He gave Himself for you, and in so doing bought and paid for you! And therefore you belong to Him. Will you give yourself to Him?
That is the only way to salvation; the only way this greatest price ever paid in the universe from eternity can save you, great as it was. You must give yourself up! Give yourself to Him! Give Him your life, yourself. Let Him come into your heart and mind through His Spirit, and live His life in you!
It means full, complete, utter, unconditional surrender. You are no longer your own, you are His. Give your life to Him and see what great usefulness and accomplishment He will put it to! See what great joys will be yours as a result of the great good he can and will do through you, if you are His, wholly in His power, wholly subjected to His will! Yes, Christ died and was dead! But God the Father raised Him from the dead. He lives forevermore!
You are already dead in trespasses and sins, surrender to God, and give yourself to the Living Savior who died for you, but was raised to become your High Priest and coming King! We have to die in order to live. Give yourself to Christ, and He will give you Eternal Life!
“And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this Life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life” (I John 5:11-12).

Unlike most insects named after particular plants, the rose chafer doesn't limit itself to one target. It's a general pest. The 2 1/2 inch long adults, slender, long legged, and light tan in color, feed in swarms, attacking flowering plants first, then moving on to other kinds of plants. The slim, white, 1/4 inch long grubs damage grass roots the same way Japanese beetle and June beetle grubs do but only in sandy soils.
Target: Many flowers, including roses and peonies; some fruits and vegetables; lawns.
Damage: Leaves are chewed to lace and holes are eaten in flowers (adults); brown patches of lawn roll up (larvae).
Life cycle: After emerging in spring, adults feed for a few weeks, then lay eggs in sandy soil. The grubs hatch and feed near the surface, then tunnel deeper to overwinter. In spring, they move upward and feed for a time, then pupate near the surface. There is one generation a year.
Notes: Rose chafer grubs are not susceptible to milky spore disease.

So much power and it all came down to this Orium, Ingra, Meteoro, BigGator5, Scion the Nun, Lord Mattson and Baron Banter All of them held the power to change the destiny of House Sinister and none of them accomplished nothing! So shortsighted, none of them realized that our goals should have gone beyond the fruitless pulse against House Dexter. Overgrown children, thats all they were. What a pity.
Sadeh! I had thought Elysia was abandon by our race! Tell me, where are the rest of our brothers and sisters who had stood against Altwaal?
Yes, I know. I fought them. It was me, Pyrem, a hand full of Secundae, a half-blood, two marked ones who looked like Underlings (however they had the sigil from both houses), and some mortals who defended this world.
I and Pyrem, who is now dead, was the only First to be here. However, BigGator5 came at the last second. Knowing him, Gator will try to grab all the glory from that day. He is also going to try and rebuild Elysia.
It’s good to know that this war wasn’t lost. *I’ve been following BigGator’s moves ever since he took over House Sinister and I have to say that he’s a First worth of my attention. *Good for him if he wants to rebuild Elysia. *Time will come when I will speak to him again, just like in the old days of a newly born House Sinister.
Anyway, as glad as I am about the current news, I came here with a very specific goal in mind. *I’m looking for the Red Book of Secrets. *Do you know anything about its whereabouts?
Sadeh, I'd like you to meet Danae. Danae can help us to control the Lawbringer, which means that we won't need either book to do so.
Danae smiled at Sadeh. *Nice to meet you. *I hope I can be of help.
It hadn't failed her notice that Adam was still holding her hand.
I am glad Adam found you. *We’ve been having difficulties at keeping Lawbringer QLNZ calmed. *Any help is welcomed at this point.
The Red Book of Secrets… *well, it’s been lost for a while, but it is supposed to hold many enchantments tied deeply into what is Sinister. *It also tells historic moments of Sinister. *It is a source of big power, that I can tell.
Are we ready to get back to the Azure Sunder, Adam? *We still have things to do.
If you're through here we can leave.
The Red Book of Secrets well, its been lost for a while, but it is supposed to hold many enchantments tied deeply into what is Sinister. It also tells historic moments of Sinister.It is a source of big power, that I can tell.
What do you mean? What would cause her to awaken just now?
All it took, was the birth of a child (http://www.cbreview.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=24673#24673). This child, is powerful enough to reach across space and feed EIT's rebirth.
I intend to kill this child. It's death will feed the, heh-heh, rebirth of my children.
You know I will not allow you to awaken your children.
As TIE jumped into the air, Pyro released a huge ball of flame knocking the Firsrt backwards.
Fool! You can't kill him! We'll have to find another way!
I don't have a moment. I need to kill him now!
You take your sons and leave Elysia, for now. Kill the child and I kill her. You understand me?
Father! Do not leave me-!
What is it that you want to talk about Pyro?
If you must know, I sent you there to kill my son. It was a mistake to stop you in the first place. Plus, I was hoping you do a little damage there. You see, there is a family feud going on with my grandson and I intend to win. However, now that you have failed to kill SG, would you like to join me in planning the next strike?
Listen, I need to secure her in my tower. When I return, I'm going to rebuild this pace and we will begain to plan.
I should not be long. If anybody comes looking for me, tell them to hold on.
::A green portal of the Negation opens in the ruins of the Sinister Palace. Lawbringer NYXZ steps once silently. His armour has been repaired in the transit between worlds, although his radical transformation was still evident.
Leathery black wings were the last part of the dark creature to appear and the portal blinked out of existance. The walked towards Big Gator the recently formed bone spikes protruding from his knees, elbow and shoulders clicked softly as he moved forward. His dark wings flapped open and he stopped his march towards the Gator God.
Big Gator of the First also Lawbringer BGTR of the Negation.
Your test is scheduled for this moment of time.
If I was a Lawbringer, then you guys should have had your fill of me by now. I am not a lab rat and my name, is BigGator5!
Big Gator of the First. Your hostile attitude has been noted, however it is not a requirement for the Testing.
::The Lawbringer to Gator's left rushed forward and its fist lashed out, connecting with the Gator God's face. The one to his right darted in and slammed his spiked knee into his abdomen.
HA! Is that all you got?
You mistake my anger for me being highly annoyed. The Negation know everything about me, so there is no need to test me.
Plus, you cannot get back there anyway. Why bother?
The reasons behind the testing are not your concern.
Big Gator of the First. Shifter ability. Gator form has increased battle potential.
It is unfortunate that you no longer retain your Lawbringer incarnation. You battle and mental prowess was much in access of this form. This will not be as exhileration. I rarely have to opertunity to test one of my breathren.
*The Lawbringer was on Gator's right when NYXZ shunk a spiked elbow into him. The Lawbringer's body was parallel to Gator's and the NYXZ's arm is stright out. I tell you this to understand what it is about to happen.
BigGator5 reaches over NYXZ with his left hand and with the right, grabs the Lawbringers hand. Gator then quickly pulls the arm deeper (and it hurts like a mother, but he endures this) and to his right. With a twist and a resounding crack, breaks the clone's arm. Holding the Lawbringers arm with his right hand, Gator reaches around his back and summons his Battle-Axe. In one fluid motion, he chops off the head of his attacker.
This all happen inside of three secounds.
That hurt... I have been kind so far, but do not attack me again.
Those under analysis are not allowed to dictate the form of the test.
::The Lawbringers flapped their dark wings and lifted off the ground. Like two twisted angels they hung there, watching. Suddenly one vanished and appeared behind Gator. It wrapped itsself around the God and screeched.
The remaining NYXZ floated down and stood before Gator. His hand flicked out to the side as he looked at the burnt wounded God. A jagged wicked blade appeared in his hand and he rested it underneath his subject's chin.
You demand that I find another to test at this time is irrelevant. You are the one chosen for my analysis.
Each subject seems to have formed opinions on what this examination's purpose is. You are all in error. You're feeble minds cannot hope to understand.
How the First have fallen. The purpose of testing you is pointless. You have no abilities worth noting in this form. Fight me or do not, i can already taste the extent of your power.
You do not recall being Lawbringer BGTR? How intriguing.
I have a proposal for you Big Gator of the First. Come with me and I can grant you power. All the power that you had as a Lawbringer.
I can sense it in your mind. I feel the power you once had. It took all the First to unite against you as Lawbringer BGTR. It took their collective might to destroy you.
Your son accepted this proposition.
Do you wish to consider my offer?
*Gator was tempted by the Lawbringer's offer until he heard this. At first he thought of SG being this son, but a jumble collection of images told him otherwise.
All of a sudden, Gator threw his Battle-Axe at the last clone. This pin the clone to the wall and killed the clone.
Lawbringer Neo seems to have a place in many of your people's hearts.
Consider my offer of power.
In exchange for joining us I shall give you all the information on your son.
Pyro's attention was peaked upon heaing of BG's "son," but when the LawBringer specified that it was not SG, he sat back down and began to drink again.
Just tell me when you need me.
Thank you, Big Gator of the First. This has once again be a most enjoyable encounter.
You have shown a great battle potential. Also surprising resistance to mental pressures, except under extreme conditions. You have impressed me.
However, my analysis is completed. Only death would have been achieved through your obstinance.
Your temptation at my offer of power was tasted, sensed and noted. Vocalisation of acceptance was interrupted through expoitation of your son. As such i have no choice but to end this encounter and adapt my line of questioning in future.
I must depart. My finding and analysis must be reported, immediately.
Big Gator 5 of the First.
You have failed your trial.
You have been weighed, measured, you have been found wanting... and disloyal.
I'm loyal to Elysia... I would never voluntary join the Negation.
Instead of gawking at me Pyro, can you bring me some water.
Pyro sneered. *He hadn't been Sinister for long, but he was quickly learning their manners.
I don't do water. *He said forming a ball of fire in his hand and drinking some more.
Well, I don't do fire!
It’s been a while, Gator, isn’t it? *~She said with a smile.~ *We need to talk, there are forces moving against you and you need to be warned.
Its been a while, Gator, isnt it? ~She said with a smile.~ We need to talk, there are forces moving against you and you need to be warned.
*Using the wall to his back, Gator got up slowly. Using his powers, Gator pulled some water from Sadeh's body. Just enough so that she didn't notice but with it, he was able to draw in some more water from around Elysia for his healing and return what he barrowed from Sadeh. Slowly, his skin return to normal.
I havn't seen you in a long time. There always forces moving against me. It is the nature of this universe.
Yes, you’re right, but this time things aren’t moving randomly. *The First tends to be chaotic in nature, you know that much better than I do, you lead this flock for a while. *But there’s something that’s has been set in motion and could cause you even bigger problems if you don’t stop it now.
I had the Red Book of Secrets for a while… *~She noticed BigGator frowned.~ *Yes, I know, it was the same book your wife held. *But you must have learned that part of the Book’s “secret” is that each bearer can use it in different ways. *I, I learned about the future. *There’s not much I can reveal, but I do remember that at this particular point in your life, you would have faced this Lawbringer creature that just attacked you.
As I said, it was not a random attack.
That Lawbringer is not what he seemed to be. *He was sent to attack you by Optimus Prime and Sojourn Fan, from the Saber Vortex. *They want to take you down and won’t stop until they’ve done so. *They want Kontiltan II and they won’t stop until they’ve got their grasps on your world. *Their moves will always be disguised, but their goal will be the same: *to kill you and then, take over Kontiltan II. *In the Red Book I read they will accomplish their goal. *But I say you can change your future and be done with them first!
Sadeh, do you want to join me and Pyro in shifting the balance of power, in my favor?
I would gladly help you, Gator. Thats why Im here. This new order established by Millenium is changing too many things and it gets difficult to tell your friend from your enemies, but you do know that Im good at reading Gods.
Who is this Pyro you talk about? Is he a trusted ally?
Actully, I like Mil's new order. As long as he keeps the council in place, and me on it, I don't mind really.
Pyro, is this god of action here.
He wants my Half-Blood son dead, and I'm going to help. You see, my other son Neo, took over many worlds and named it the Matrix Quadrant. Now my grandson rules, something I don't approve of. I want to kill him and take the Quadrant for myself.
A little known law will allow me to attack without interference. If the Saber Vortex attacks my world, then I'll bring the Matrix Quadrant down upon them. I can't lose if I get someone like you on my side.
Yes. Well, you want SG dead, as I want Lord Mattson's head on a platter.
How? The law I talk of is an old somewhat unuse law Altwaal enacted over a costly dispute. You remember "A Father's Rights", right Sadeh? It states that a Father may lay first claim to his son's property, in the event of death. The Matrix Quadrant should have been mine.
As for "When"? I was waiting to see what would happen when Pyro attack SG. However, TIE and that Lawbringer has delay me. Now I can take on Lord Mattson, Pyro can have SG, and Sadeh I can trust to take on his wife, Minity, if she is there. No?
This way, you'll get justice without interfence from Mattson. If the Saber Vortex attacks my world and I squash it, you may have that world.
With the Matrix Quadrant under my thumb, Millenium will be forced to listen to me. And of course you'll have my ear, my dear Sadeh. All you have to do is help me.
I will help you as much as I can, Gator. *For all times sake, isnt it. *Still, you have to understand that I have other businesses to deal with, so I wont be able to stay with you all the time. *But dont fret, my shadowporting powers allow me to be any place I want.
If you want Lord Mattsons head, I think you should start by undermining his self-control. *His mind is his biggest asset, but if hes mad, he will lose it. *I say, kill Sojourn Fan and you will get Lord Mattsons head on a plate.
I say, kill Sojourn Fan and you will get Lord Mattsons head on a plate.
You get me the Red Book that has that entry in it, and I will have no choice but to deal with her. Until then, I will have to wait until they take action.
Now I can take on Lord Mattson even with his mind in the fight, if I have to, but he can't have any allies around to interfere. That is why I need allies myself.
I took House Sinister, didn't I? You should know by now, that I don't deal in small steps.
Dont be so presumptuous, Gator. *Getting headed directly against Lord Mattson would only mean your fall. *He has too many planets, too many soldiers. *How many do you have? *Kontiltan II is not that old, how many soldiers do you have? *Tell me!
You have to choose your enemies carefully if you want to win. *Mattson may be at the end of the line, dont overlook him, but definitely dont charge against him directly, you have to focus on his weaknesses. *You know fairly well what Sojourn Fan means to him. *Hit him where it hurts him the most. *Hit him on the heel and Sojourn Fan is that heel.
Take them and train them. This does not get back to me, do you understand me?
Im trying to do you a service, Gator, and you act second guessing my every idea. *What do you want me to do with two Kontilians? *Theyre barely mortals and they simply wont grasp the whole picture. *Im no ones personal trainer. *If you want to prepare them for whatever it is you want, youll have to train them yourself. *I can walk out of here and get going with my life; Im not the one whos being targeted by a hiding enemy.
Dont you understand Im doing this because youre one of the few Firsts worth leading this chaotic flock? *You may be loyal to Millenium, personally I dont mind, thats your call. *But what Im trying to do is to protect our future. *Sooner or later Milleniums rule will pass and youll get another shot at leading. *I want you to survive that long.
But if you dont want to, thats your choice.
If you have anything else to say, do it quick. *Im leaving this room.
If you have anything else to say, do it quick. Im leaving this room.
What is the one metal that could kill a First?
Kontilian 1: Should we say in font of them, M'Lord?
Go ahead, it is all right.
They would be the only two who would be able to use them and retrieve them. Her death would be a complete mystery.
You could train them quickly and guised them, while I take steps for my attack on Lord Mattson. My energies cannot be found on them in-case they get caught and I know you know how to hide your energies if you choose to do so, something I can't do.
When I said I dont train people, I meant it, Gator. But I see that you still have the commanding tone that you used as ruler of House Sinister and, frankly, it suits you.
You will come with me and you better be prepared for some tough trials.
I have some other business elsewhere that I must see to. *I'll be back shortly.
And with that he vanished in a ball of flame.
*A big sigh escape his lips as he sat back. Looking around, he decided that the Sinister Palace has laid in ruin for far too long.

The butterflies are still here. Normally they would all be gone except for a few stragglers coming from Tennesse, or further north that stop and feed on the few flowers that are left.
But this year, they're hanging. Today when I walked out front where there is no lawn, I noticed a swarm of swallowtail butterflies all over the ground. They scattered like a covey of quail when I approached to snap a photo, but this one looked stoned. I think these blue beauties are getting high on the fermenting persimmons in my yard. I can see the headlines now. Local resident arrested for getting underaged Papilionidaes stoned.
Really, officer I'm not sure what happened. I was just walking around the yard minding my own business when all the butterflies began swooping and swerving all around. Yes, I did find it odd that they were being overly friendly, but I thought it was the patchouli oil I was wearing.
The sheriff said, "Tell it to the judge."
I guess you can tell it's been a slow day here in Empire.
I don't remember ever catching one still long enough for me to photograph.
I saw a red and white one with black polka dots yesterday but it got away before I could get my camera. He will be back.
I appreciate your sense of humor. Fun reading today.

Thank you. I needed to see (and read) this today.
It really is an intriguing photograph.

It’s the middle of winter, and you just found out that your company is relocating you to Jupiter, Florida. That’s great for your frozen bones—but what about your home? Use these tips to help sell your home ASAP—even in winter.
First, focus on the curb appeal. In winter, it’s easy to neglect the outside of your home, but it’s crucial that your potential buyers’ first impressions be good ones. Clear the driveway, paths, and decks, and add some salt to protect against slipping on ice. Turn on the porch lights, and consider adding some urns and planters to your front stoop if it looks a bit empty. Add a winter-themed welcome mat to complete the job.
Second, keep your entryways clean. As one stager observes, “During winter it is especially important to remove mucky boots outside and keep family gear hidden in a closet or trunk, where potential buyers won’t trip over them.” The last thing you want your potential buyer to see is your muddy footprints all over the foyer.
Third, emphasize visual (and physical) warmth. Make sure every light is on—things can get dark in winter! And crank that heat. Seal your windows and holes, and move furniture away from the vents to ensure proper air circulation. Nobody wants to buy a home where they are too distracted by the cold to pay attention to its amenities. Add some throws, pillows, and richly textured materials in warm colors to create an image of warmth and coziness.
Fourth, highlight features of your home that are particularly useful in winter, such as fireplaces, basement playrooms for kids, and indoor fitness centers. Consider accentuating your home’s entertaining possibilities as well, as winter is a popular time for indoor dinner parties.
Keep these tips in mind as you are getting ready to sell your home, and you will be off to sunny Florida in no time!

National Advocates for Pregnant Women: May 10, 2013, Michelle Goldberg, The Daily Beast, "Castro Captive’s Miscarriages Aren’t Murder"
Charging Ariel Castro with murder for allegedly causing his captives to miscarry their pregnancies sets a dangerous precedent, says Michelle Goldberg.
No sentence seems severe enough for the monstrous Ariel Castro, who allegedly kidnapped, imprisoned, raped, and tortured three women for more than a decade. It’s easy to see why prosecutors are weighing whether to charge him with murder and subject him to the death penalty for his alleged acts, including repeatedly impregnating one of his victims and then beating and starving her until she miscarried. Even if you oppose the death penalty, as I do, Castro deserves it if anyone does.
But if he is convicted of capital murder, it will ultimately be an injustice—not to him, but to the rest of us. That’s because it will mean that legally, ending a pregnancy is a greater crime than keeping three human beings locked in a squalid dungeon for a decade. Such a precedent will have implications beyond this terrible case.
Laws that allow for murder prosecutions in instances of fetal death often result from horrific crimes against women. Once they’re on the books, though, they can be used to prosecute women for ending or endangering their own pregnancies. In Indiana, for example, the murder statute was expanded in 1997 to include the words “viable fetus” after a woman named Melanie Knox was shot when she was 8½ months pregnant; she survived, but her baby was stillborn. Thirteen years later, a pregnant woman named Bei Bei Shuai tried to commit suicide in Indiana by drinking rat poison. Friends rushed her to the hospital and she survived, but her baby, born by Caesarean at 33 weeks, suffered a brain hemorrhage and died. As a result, she was charged with murder and is currently awaiting trial in September.
The anti-abortion movement has been canny about using violence against pregnant women to pass laws giving fetuses rights. “In as many areas as we can, we want to put on the books that the embryo is a person,” Samuel Casey, former executive director of the Christian Legal Society, told the Los Angeles Times in 2003. “That sets the stage for a jurist to acknowledge that human beings at any stage of development deserve protection—even protection that would trump a woman’s interest in terminating a pregnancy.” After the high-profile murder of the pregnant Laci Peterson, for example, George W. Bush signed the 2004 “Unborn Victims of Violence Act,” which the National Right to Life Committee had been pushing for five years. Thanks to lobbying by the anti-abortion movement, most states now recognize unborn victims in their homicide laws.
On the surface, this seems entirely unobjectionable, since everyone wants to protect pregnant women. But laws and legal precedents that give fetuses rights separate from those of the women who carry them are regularly used against pregnant women, even those with no intention of aborting. They’ve been employed to prosecute pregnant drug addicts, alcoholics, and those who refuse medical interventions recommended by doctors. The feminist organization National Advocates for Pregnant Women has identified 413 cases between 1973 and 2005 of women who were arrested, incarcerated, or institutionalized because of harm or threatened harm to their fetuses. “Data showed that state authorities have used post-Roe measures including feticide laws and anti-abortion laws recognizing separate rights for fertilized, eggs, embryos and fetuses as the basis for depriving pregnant women—whether they were seeking to end a pregnancy or go to term—of their physical liberty,” says a report it released in January.
To be sure, if prosecutors charge Castro with murder, it won’t be because they’re trying to gain ground in the abortion wars. It’s their job to seek the maximum possible penalty against such a man. There must be a way to do that, though, that doesn’t treat Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus, and Michelle Knight as only secondary victims. Attacking a woman so that she miscarries should certainly be treated as a grave crime, but a crime primarily against the woman. Otherwise, it’s only a short step to treat women who cause their own miscarriages as murderers.
“While there absolutely should be additional charges to causing women to lose their pregnancies, when we do it in a way that separates fertilized eggs, embryos, or fetuses from the pregnant women, it’s inevitably and always used as a mechanism for further dehumanizing and criminalizing pregnant women themselves,” says Lynn Paltrow, the National Advocates for Pregnant Women’s executive director. Castro’s abominations must be punished without turning into a pretext to punish other women as well.

There is a huge potential for energy saving in the life support systems (LSS). For comparison, in industrial systems the potential savings range between 30% and 40%. In the aquarium world, dealing with a delicate organic process in which parameters can change, good results should also be expected. A large amount of the energy is consumed by pumps. Therefore a first logical step for energy saving lies in determining the pumps duty point(s). Pumps are the backbone of the aquarium, creating the needed water movement in the exhibits and feeding the LSS. The pumps’ delivery head must be enough to over-come all resistance losses caused by pipe work, appendages, protein skimmer, sand filters and so on. During pump selection safety margins are added in ensure that flow required in the design is realised. Nowadays, for getting flexibility in pump performance and to avoid throttling of the system, the use of variable frequency drive (VFD) is widely used. However, the use of VFD can have unexpected effects on the LSS system. When pumps deviates more to the right of their Best Efficiency Point (BEP), the grade of efficiency can decrease and Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH) will diminish, giving way to higher risks of vibration (including cavitation) and noise. Then, mechanical pump load will increase, speeding up the maintenance frequency, causing more down time of the LSS which will have an impact on the controllability of the LSS. In addition, pipe work and its components will face more mechanical impact, increasing the risk of cracking pipes, giving way to failures like super-saturation.
There are a number of factors to consider when planning a new aquarium facility. One of the most important factors to consider is how will aquarium seawater will be supplied? Most inland facilities are obligated to make their own saltwater, but facilities located adjacent to natural seawater sources must evaluate collecting a continuous source of water. A source of good quality natural seawater can have a long term impact on operational cost as well as provide benefits to animal health. Important aspects to consider in the planning for a seawater intake for an aquarium facility are as follows: Where will the intake be located? The geographical location of the intake impacts the overall water quality that the intake will deliver. Things to consider include land based activities or industries, maritime traffic and freshwater intrusion sources such as natural stream beds or high capacity storm drains. Local and seasonal currents as well as tidal swings will also have an impact on the seawater intake location. What type of intake would be appropriate for the facility? There are number of different ways to intake seawater for use at an aquarium facility. This includes sea floor pipelines, pier based pump stations, land based pump stations, seawater wells and rainy collectors. Different methods and examples of facilities using similar methods will be discussed. Logistics, capital costs and long term operational costs all play a role in the method selected. What is the water quality of the source water? Is it suitable for use in the Aquarium facility? The seawater quality for any intake will vary by season and by day depending on a number of different things. Seasonal water quality samples can help the decision making process in regard to suitability and the treatment regime required. Water bodies that are high in pollutants may not be acceptable for use in the aquarium, forcing a seaside facility to manufacture seawater or obtain good quality seawater in other ways such as by truck or barge. Regulatory requirements will impact both the seawater intake and the discharge facilities. Local regulatory agency requirements vary from location to location and fall under the umbrella of national regulations as well. Discharge regulations focus on water quality parameters such as concentrations of oxidants, suspended solids, BOD and bacteria counts. At times discharge water quality parameters are lower than the water quality that you may see at the seawater intake itself. Chloride limits by local sewer agencies can also come into play in facility planning.
During a recent renovation, the Vancouver Aquarium Marine Science Center (VAMSC) installed a District Energy System or DES for short. VAMSC is one of only a few institutions in British Columbia to integrate such an innovative system to manage energy use. VAMSC follows LEED and ISO 14001 construction practices and in 2015 was awarded the Green Award by AZA in part due to the implementation of the District Energy System. The DES is a site wide low grade energy loop that extracts or rejects energy through a variety of sources. Heat producing equipment such as chillers and food service refrigeration reject heat in to the loop through liquid cooled condensers. Isolated water and glycol systems are circulated using variable speed pumps to move energy around the system. Heat is extracted through heat exchangers to warm habitats, galleries and coils in local HVAC air handlers. Cooling is accomplished in the same way using the cold side of the system. Temperatures in the loop are maintained in a specified range using seawater heat exchangers, boilers, heat pumps and a cooling tower. Planning is underway to install a geothermal field to store excess heat produced in warmer months for use in the winter. The net effect is that heating and cooling costs can be reduced since it requires much less energy to redistribute the energy than it would to produce it at multiple points of use.
Life support system instrumentation indicates equipment function, but it is water quality parameters that indicate equipment efficacy and resource allocation that indicates equipment efficiency. Equipment parameters—pressure, flow, water level, etc.—can be operating within “design specifications”, yet water quality parameters (e.g., nutrients, alkalinity, pH) can be unsuitable for aquatic life and/or excess resources (e.g., water, energy, labor) must be expended to normalize the environment. In the past, available technologies were not able to address the demands of a healthy closed aquarium habitat without eventual recourse to substantial water exchanges to normalize the environment. This situation no longer prevails. Dissolved contaminants can now be physically removed from solution by ozone-assisted foam fractionation, a widely accepted industry standard in the modern era. Nitrite accumulation can be managed with recently-developed and user-friendly denitrification technologies. Phosphates can be controlled with modern water treatment tools and pH decline can be addressed via well-designed gas exchangers to ameliorate CO2 accumulation from animal and bacterial respiration, and the degradation of wastes and uneaten food. Given these relatively recent advances, it is clear that water quality challenges in a modern aquarium have their root causes tied to incomplete life support system design and/or inappropriate system operation. By ensuring that life support systems are well designed and operated appropriately, optimal water quality can result and excess resource expenditure can be avoided, consistent with the conservation and fiscal priorities for the modern zoo and aquarium.
Pressured by the rapid pace of climate change and ocean acidification, aquariums are feeling an increased urgency to provide a message of conservation and sustainability to their visitors. Research shows that people are more receptive to this message when presented with concrete evidence of how their actions can create positive change. As such, aquariums have a stronger incentive than ever to lead by example, reducing their demands for energy and freshwater. Traditional aquarium life support systems have been very energy and freshwater use intensive, primarily due to pump energy, heating and cooling demands and use of water for backwashing of filters. Such systems can easily account for more than 50% of the energy and water use of a facility. But opportunities to reduce energy and water use with such systems are minimal without unacceptable reductions in water quality. However, innovative system design alternatives are being included in new aquariums and renovations. These incorporate drum filtration, which can drastically reduce energy and water use over traditional pressurized filtration systems. Additional strategies, such as integration of life support heating and cooling into energy efficient building mechanical systems introduce the potential for further energy reductions. Such systems are most effective when system elements are arranged so that gravity flow replaces a significant amount of pumping. While capital costs of such systems may be somewhat higher than traditional systems, life cycle cost analysis can be used to demonstrate that substantial energy and water savings and reduced equipment maintenance and replacement costs can easily offset the initial cost premium of such a system. By pushing the design of our future facilities, aquariums can lead by example as they strive to increase the impact of conservation education on their visitors.

First, as this year’s co-chair, I learned that taking a leadership role pretty much means you miss the whole conference. I attended SIX (and a half) sessions out of the 100 or so in the program. (3 keynotes, 2 posters, 1 Ignite, and half of one 60-minute session) Everything I saw was pretty amazing.
With over 550 people in attendance, I saw a lot of old friends (but far too many only from across the room), made a few new ones, and just generally enjoyed the hum of brilliance coming from the crowd. It’s always fun just to be around really smart people.
At the end, I was thrilled to announce that UXPA 2014 will be in London! I haven’t been to London in more than 7 years, and I am thrilled to go back. Even more, I’m excited to be tasked with creating a great international conference experience for UXPA and to be working with Sara Mastro, UXPA 2014 co-chair, and the UK chapter of UXPA to make it great.
PS – Yes, this is what I’ve been doing instead of blogging. That, and trying to ramp up the Less Content. More Strategy. site. So, while my intentions are still good, the realist in me knows that nothing is really coming off of my proverbial plate anytime soon. I’ll try to do better. Really I will.
Dear LinkedIn, please stop. Passwords. Really?

On Wednesday, February 12th, the McGill Entrepreneur’s Society (MES) hosted their annual Startup Career Fair. The annual fair hosts startups from the Montreal area at McGill to recruit students for both internships and jobs. Over 30 companies attended, an increase from 18 in 2013.
Social entrepreneurship refers to businesses that prioritize social responsibility and the well-being of society over high profits. For example, a company might emphasize environmentally friendly business practices or the well-being of their employees. One such company is YES Montreal, a non-profit venture that offers services to connect students to potential employers in the Montreal area. “Tech companies make up a large portion of the market,” clarified Aydin, “but they might not be the only startups looking to hire.” Since promoting this distinction, membership by students outside of Management has increased.
Erratum: Integrate Chinese Life (ICL) was mistakenly stated as founded by two McGill alumni. ICL was in fact founded by McGill student Nicolas de Toledo and his business partner Bastien Dumont. The Bull & Bear apologizes for the misunderstanding.

Fr. Matthias Mo, a much loved and respected Salesian priest of the province of Mary Help of Christians and the Chinese Catholic communities in Sydney and Melbourne, was farewell at Our Lady of Rosary church in St. Marys, NSW and St. John Bosco chapel in Salesian College Rupertswood, Victoria.
Fr. Mo passed away peacefully at the Rosary Retirement Home in Sydney on Wednesday 5th March.
A funeral Mass was celebrated at Our Lady of Rosary church in St. Marys, NSW, on Tuesday 11th March. This Mass was led by the rector of the community, Fr. Shane Reade SDB, and concelebrated by many Salesian and diocesan priests before a congregation which filled up the church. As expected, many Chinese Catholics filled up most part of the church to pay their upmost respect to Fr. Mo. The Chinese choir also sang beautifully both in English and Chinese during the Eucharist.
During his homily, Fr Shane Reade used the symbol of a lotus flower that begins life in mud and swamp but grows into something truly beautiful. Fr. Mo began his faith and Salesian journey in communist China with much difficulty, yet he turned into a dedicated, respected and talented Salesian priest to all people in his life.
On Friday 14th March, a number people including his brother, nephews and their families together with Salesian family members gathered to say final farewell to Fr. Mo at Salesian College in Sunbury. This requiem Mass was led by Fr. Anthony Nguyen SDB the acting provincial, and concelebrated by Bishop Deakin, Fr. Shane Read and a number of Salesian priests. Fr. John Murphy delivered the homily during which he spoke of his experience with Fr. Mo and the contributions he made to the province and to the Chinese communities in Australia.
Following the Eucharist, Fr. Matthias Mo was laid to rest in the Salesian cemetery in the college ground. Many junior students and staff of Salesian College formed the Guard of Honour when the coffin was taking to the cemetery. It is always impressive and admiring to see Salesian students and staff forming Guard of Honour at Salesian funerals.
Fr. Mo’s life was celebrated, acknowledged and thanked by many. May he rest in peace, amen.
I was an old friend of Rev. Father Matthias Mo. I had been looking for him for a while now but due to distance, have not pursued it. I live in the Philippines.
I just learned that he had passed away. Since I am going to Melbourne and then Sydney later this month, I would very much like to visit his grave and pay my respects to this man, my friend and mentor and priest.
Please give me an address of where he is buried. I need to say goodbye.
Fr Mo is buried at the Salesian cemetery in the property of Salesian College 1 Macedon Street in Sunbury Victoria 3429. It is about 20 minutes drive from Melbourne International Airport.
Please give a call to the college 9744 0000 for an appointment.

Executive Coaching should be clearly linked to business and strategic objectives. This Is works with you to design a coaching programme for your organisation, helping you to decide where best to focus attention and get the greatest value for money.
Coaching within organisations undergoing change (whether it be restructuring, a merger or an acquisition) helps people adjust to change more quickly and more easily. It can also be a very effective way of developing a 'critical mass' of supportive and skilled leaders who understand organisational values and strategy and have the skills to put these into practice.
We first analyse the current situation working alongside your organisation's senior leaders, using a variety of customised psychometric and diagnostic tools. Together we identify where actions are required and where change is necessary. We develop the strategies and key coaching interventions necessary to make a measurable difference to performance. We look carefully at who will most benefit from the coaching and make sure individual coaching sessions contribute to your overall organisational objectives so that the organisation gets the best value for money possible. In some cases coaching may not be the most cost effective intervention, and alternative actions can be explored.
We also have the experience to audit and supervise an organisation's existing internal coaching system, saving you money by better targeting your internal coaching. Coaching is always most effective for the organisation if it is properly coordinated and managed and everyone is aware of how the return on investment is evaluated.
