October 31, 1517 was the day Martin Luther nailed the 95 Theses to the Wittenberg Church door, marking the beginning of the Protestant Reformation. A key development of the Reformation was the recovery of biblical worship and congregational singing. This Sunday we have the privilege to join with several area churches in celebrating the 500th anniversary of the Protestant Reformation by singing the biblical psalms together. The psalms were incredibly powerful in the thinking and worship of all the Reformation churches. Many of the tunes sung will be from the 16th century Genevan and Scottish psalters. Refreshments will be provided.
*This will be in lieu of our regular Sunday evening prayer service.

Exercises like squat and barbell row are very helpful to gain more muscle mass. But they are very difficult to learn and risk of injury is also very high. On the other hand machine exercises like seated cable row, leg press etc. are very easier to learn and risk of injury is very low. Since leg press only allow fixed standard movement, adding more weights on this machine exercise is very easier than free lift exercises. This is why the chance of injury is very low in leg press workout. But if you are a sportsman, we don’t recommend leg press. Because leg press can’t activate your core muscles but still it is the best alternative of squat. The leg press works many of the same muscle groups as the squat, without putting as much load on the knees and spine.
Gluteals, quadriceps, harmstrings, calves, assisting muscles etc.
Just like squat leg press is also a compound exercise. So you can target more muscles just by doing a single exercise. This makes leg press a more effective lower body exercise. Leg press is more efficient than leg isolation exercises like lying leg curls, leg extension etc.
Leg press is safer than squat because it only allows standard movement. Chances of falling weight plates on your body is less for leg press. Also the chances of injury is very less in leg press workout.
Practicing leg press can improve the strength of every leg muscles. So you are able to generate more force on each step. As a result you can improve your speed.
Leg press is one of the important training session of basketball star’s workout routine. By training leg press you are strengthening the same muscle groups that are used for jumping.
Now hold the load and remove safety bar.
Lower the platform till your lower and upper legs makes an angle 90 degree.
Now by pushing the heels upwards come back to the starting position.
Repeat it for 6-15 reps.
Small variations in foot placement can put more tension on specific leg muscles. That is, by changing the foot position you can target different muscle groups.
It is the most widely used leg press form. A standard shoulder width foot placement in the middle of platform is good for overall leg development.
A wide stance puts more emphasis on the adductors and inner quad.
A narrow stance puts more emphasis on the adductors and outer quad.
A high foot placement on the leg press platform puts more emphasis on the glutes and harmstrings.
A low foot placement puts more emphasis on the quads.
You can also do calf raises on leg press machine by placing your feet at the bottom edge of leg press platform.

I was physically and emotionally abused by my mother.
I had a bad childhood, where I was physically and emotionally abused by my mother.
Dear Amy: I had a bad childhood, where I was physically and emotionally abused by my mother. She was a single mother of four, and I am the oldest.
I am now responsible for my aged mother’s care and finances.
I find myself very resentful and holding grudges from more than 40 years ago that interfere with my ability to be a loving daughter, rather than merely a responsible daughter.
Dear Tired: My first recommendation will help you see that you are not alone. You are part of a sisterhood, but you might not realize it. Read Susan Forward’s “Mothers Who Can’t Love: A Healing Guide for Daughters,” written with co-author Donna Frazier Glynn (2013, Harper Collins).
My next recommendation is intended to inspire you to feel your authentic feelings, love yourself and perhaps find your way to understanding and acceptance, if not outright forgiveness.
You could start with literally any of Pema Chodron’s meditations, lectures, lessons or books, but this one might be best for you now: “The Places that Scare You: A Guide to Fearlessness in Difficult Times,” (2001, Shambhala).
And this final message is from me: Take heart. You are doing the heavy lifting of life, and your frequent exposure to your mother at this stage will understandably plunge you back into that tender state when you were a vulnerable child to an abusive mother.
You might not be able to move beyond being a “responsible” daughter to being a loving one, but you might find a measure of peace in merely abiding and understanding that you are doing the best you can.
I think it really helps to talk about it, write about it, sing about it and shout about it. Get exercise, be creative, spend time in nature, nurture your friendships if you can and find ways to allow the world to take care of you.

1916 – 2016 How will the Four Courts commemorate?
A photograph taken after the surrender taken from the Judges yard looking out of the Chancery Place gates. framed in the gates is the front door of the Medical Mission. The barricade inside the gates was erected by the rebels. The mattresses came from the Fourcourts Hotel. Some of the furniture they used will look remarkably familiar to current law library members!
enlarged and grainy photograph of Bevan in his volunteer uniform, his chest crossed with leather bandoleers.
extracted from the Mission by getting into the back of improvised armoured cars made of Guinness boilers.
Edward Daly, commandant of the 1st Battalion of the Dublin Volunteers. He was aged 25 when executed at Kilmainham.
Inside the Four Courts command was in the hands of 25 year old Edward Daly. He was also responsible for capturing the Bridewell to the rear of the courts and he kept prisoner there some of the Bridwell police officers and all of the army pay corps soldiers taken prisoner when the rebels burnt down their barracks at Linenhall, up near the Kings Inns.
Although not a signatory to the proclamation Edward Daly still went to the firing squads at Kilmainham. As yet, at least to my knowledge, no mention of him appears anywhere within what the Courts Service now calls the Four Courts campus.
Over on the western side of the courts building volunteer Lieutenant Thomas Allen was shot dead in the Records Office, ( now Courts 22 and 23), during a machine gun attack by soldiers advancing through Smithfield. You can still see scarring from the machine gun damage to the building as you walk up Church Street. From Moyville Co. Meath, Thomas Allen left a widow and three children.
Who now, who works in or frequents Courts 22 or 23 knows of Thomas Allen, who gave his life in the creation of an independent Ireland?.
what are the plans for the Four Courts? The issue has yet to be considered by the Courts Service, or by those who work within it’s environs. But in the spirit of the matter it is not too early to suggest some possible acts of commemoration.
to barrister Francis Henry Browning who was shot dead on Mount Street by rebel forces under the command of De Valera.
So how about one of the two courts in the old Record Office, court 22 or 23, being named as the Allen Court; Should the Irish bay, where hangs the Bevan portrait, be re-named the Bevan Bay?
rebel fire for three days.
As for Daly, his name must be recorded somewhere within the Campus. We have an Áras Uí Dhálaigh after the sixth President and former Chief Justice Cearbhall O Dhálaigh, surely we can afford to have a Daly room, a Daly court or a Daly bursary prize, Can we not just cast his name in the doorstep of some prominent entrance. Cannot we just remember him?
For further reading on the role of the Four Courts in the Rising read Paul O’Brien’s book: Crossfire – The battle of the Four Courts 1916, published by New Ireland Press.
Review of Crossfire – The battle of the Four Courts 1916.
I suspect that Ned Daly, like Willie Pearse, was killed for his association – he was Thomas Clarke’s brother-in-law.
Thomas Allen was my mum’s uncle. I don’t know that much about him at all though.
We must be related! Thomas Allen is my great grandfather on my mother’s side.
I believe Thomas Allen came from Longwood Meath? Am I wrong? Does anybody know his parents names?
My grand aunt actually held Thomas Allen’s head while Fr. Augustine anointed him while he lay dying.

Having a life - or something very like it.
The last few days have been rather busy but fun.
Yesterday after work I went to pick up malachan from his hostel, cleverly located right next to my undergrad uni so it was easy for me to find. I then offered him Italian food, Persian food or that we could head down here via LSD so he could see more of the city. He opted for the last and off we went. We were able to find parking without too much trouble and then we wandered around until we found a map of the place. We then checked out Bubba Gump's but the wait was nearly an hour, so we went to Joe's Be-Bop Cafe. It was really quite good - we both had southern BBQ (Cyg had a chicken dinner and I had a pulled pork and beef sandwich) and they had a real jazz band playing. I have to say that I was quite impressed by the band - The Skinny Williams Quintet! - which is such a great name for a jazz band. After we finished eating we headed up to the big ferris wheel, which at only $5 a person is truly an excellent deal considering the amazing view you get. Of course, I have something of a fear of heights, so at times I had to really, REALLY concentrate on the view so as to not begin shrieking at the top of my lungs. Isn't it weird how we love doing things that scare the crap out of us? Adrenaline, I suppose. It was getting late after that, so I took Cyg back to the hostel and headed home.
Today I went to get my nails and hair done. I'm pleased to say that I am SO SO happy to have found my colorist and stylist again!!!! If anyone in the Chicago area needs a recommendation, email me and I'll pass their info on. They are just TOO good, and I look incredible - even if I do say so myself.
After dinner we wandered over to a little park with fountains and sat and talked for a bit and took some silly photos. You cannot see them. *holds them hostage* Then it was getting late and as Lisse had a rather long trip on the El to get home, we headed back. We dropped Cyg off at the hostel and then I took Lisse to the El station. Cyg will be heading out tomorrow towards flat nothingnessKansas and eventually Colorado.
I had a great time and I hope you both did, too! And now, sleeeeeeep.
Note to self: make plans with Lisse on a regular basis, as she is fun and goofy.
Okay, you've just freaked me out since the Sushi place is in my old stomping grounds (well, alma mater-land). It looks like a great restaurant -- I'll have to check it out the next time I get to Chicago.
LOL Yeah, class of '84 (yes, I'm ancient).
Oh, my sister went to Loyola for a bit! At the lakeshore campus. She liked it, but it was costing her an arm and a leg, and my dad wasn't giving her tuition help. She ended up going to U of I. But during their freshmen introduction, some of the jesuit priest canadates did the Men in Black dance. Funny that's the only thing I remember about that family introduction weekend.
Well obviously we'll have to explore sometime soon and find good sushi out here somewhere! I'm sure there must be some options.
I didn't know you lived in Chicago? I was there in June. My daughter's there right now.
Yep - except for 5 years in San Diego and 6 months in Dallas, I've always lived in the Chicago area. Does DV live around here, then? Is that why your daughter is here?
DV grew up in Woodridge and his parents still live there. Unfortunately he lives an hour south of me in South Dakota.
Ah, I grew up next door to Woodridge. I'd wonder if I knew him but I don't think I know anyone from Woodridge - and it doesn't sound like I'd want to know him, anyway.
I've been wanting to try sushi for a long time, but still haven't done it. The thought of raw fish is icky, so it would only be cooked sushi for me too!
Sounds great! Yes, we definitely must meet up sometime! :-) Weekends in August are looking to be pretty full, but maybe in September?

GAO-05-601R: Published: Jul 22, 2005. Publicly Released: Jul 22, 2005.
The Secretary of the Treasury, in coordination with the Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), is required to annually prepare and submit audited financial statements of the U.S. government to the President and the Congress. We are required to audit these consolidated financial statements (CFS) and report on the results of our work. In connection with fulfilling our requirement to audit the fiscal year 2004 CFS, we evaluated the Department of the Treasury's (Treasury) financial reporting procedures and related internal control over the process for compiling the CFS, including the management representation letter provided us by Treasury and OMB. Written representation letters from management, required by U.S. generally accepted government auditing standards, ordinarily confirm oral representations given to the auditor, indicate and document the continuing appropriateness of those representations, and reduce the possibility of a misunderstanding between management and the auditor. The purpose of this report is to communicate our observations on the United States Agency for International Development's (USAID) fiscal year 2004 management representation letter. Our objective is to help ensure that future management representation letters submitted by USAID are sufficient to help support Treasury and OMB's preparation of the CFS management representation letter and our ability to rely on the representations in that letter in combination with individual federal agency representation letters. We reviewed five key areas in each management representation letter: (1) signatures, (2) materiality thresholds, (3) representations, (4) summary of unadjusted misstatements, and (5) reliability of representations. In reviewing the management representation letters, we applied the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants' (AICPA) Codification of Auditing Standards, AU Section 333, Management Representations; OMB Bulletin 01-02, Audit Requirements for Federal Financial Statements; and the GAO/President's Council on Integrity and Efficiency (PCIE) Financial Audit Manual (FAM) section 1001, entitled "Management Representations."
USAID's fiscal year 2004 management representation letter did not provide all the information necessary to support Treasury and OMB's preparation of the CFS management representation letter. This in turn impacted our ability to rely on the representations in the CFS management representation letter in combination with individual federal agency representation letters. We identified some needed improvements in one of the five key areas we reviewed. Specifically, USAID did not provide a summary of unadjusted misstatements that (1) identifies the standard general ledger account number, standard general ledger account name, or financial statement line item for the misstatements and (2) includes a description of the misstatements. We believe that this matter can be easily addressed and are making a recommendation to USAID's Chief Financial Officer targeted to including a complete summary of unadjusted misstatements, if there are any uncorrected misstatements, that also provides a description of the misstatements. Also, we are recommending that the USAID Acting Inspector General work with the agency to help ensure that future management representation letters meet the key condition noted as needing improvements in this report.
Comments: As part of our fiscal year (FY) 2007 audit of the consolidated financial statements (CFS) of the U.S. government, we evaluated the agencies' management representation letters to determine whether they were sufficient to help support Treasury and OMB's preparation of the CFS management representation letter. USAID's FY 2007 management representation letter represented that the unadjusted misstatements in the schedule attached to the letter were immaterial and the schedule itself indicated that there were no unadjusted misstatements. Therefore, USAID has addressed this recommendation.
Recommendation: USAID's Chief Financial Officer should ensure that in the future the management representation letter include a complete summary of unadjusted misstatements, if there are any uncorrected misstatements, that also provides a description of the misstatements.

With this speech and accompanying legislative proposals the Johnson Administration embarked upon a plan to maintain economic growth, stimulate job creation and protect the livelihood hard-working Americans, expand a more equitable foreign trade, and to enact monetary and fiscal policies designed to support the goals of his message.
But, by 1968, due to the expanding war in Vietnam, the costs of the Great Society, particularly the War on Poverty, revolution in the streets of major cities, and the trade deficit, President Johnson raised the call for more austere measures to maintain economic progress.
This collection provides extensive documentation on a variety of initiatives and programs to meet the economic goals of President Johnson's Great Society, War on Poverty, impacts of the Vietnam War, the trade deficit, and efforts to improve the response of cities to the growing wave of unrest.

I had a great time making it. The gears aligned really well and the pieces fit together perfectly. However, I can understand why some may have difficulty making sense of the pendulum instructions.
There are two parts to winding the string. One side goes one direction and is wound first, then the other that is one second goes the opposite direction. It took me a minute to convince myself that they aren't supposed to be wound at the same time, as that would just knot everything up when the pendulum is swinging... I personally think numbering which part of the string should be wound around the gear first then second would be helpful.
This is a great product, and it works well, though the instructions annoyed me several times.
The instructions are easy to follow, but there are a few that are misleading or confusing. For instance, the strings in the winding mechanism are incorrectly drawn in one place, and correct in another place. Also, the array of pins and shims on the winding mechanism took me almost an hour alone. I had to ignore the illustrations and figure it out on my own.
I expected complexity, but there were some real puzzles to solve. The winding mechanism was a dexterity challenge. Also, it needs to hang a few millimeters from the wall, so the weight doesn't rub on the wall. It should have a simple hanging fixture and spacers to keep it vertical and away from the wall. Easy enough to DIY, but it should be a part of the design. I was impressed with the engineering and aesthetic. There was very little learning curve. I think I could assemble another one in half the time.
I followed the directions very closely and patiently, and made sure to sand and wax everything that needed it. I used the ruler and axle gauge.
So, it's finished, and I got it to run for a couple of minutes, but I think it needs more weight than a bunch of pennies. Maybe lead fishing weights. Buckshot.
All the gears are aligned. When I remove the pendulum and the pawl gear, I can freely rotate the winding mechanism and get the strings in the right tracks. Figuring that out was a big time-eater. The whole winding mechanism was frustrating. I expect complexity, but there were some real puzzles to solve.
Also, it needs to hang a few millimeters from the wall, so the weight doesn't rub on the wall. It should have a simple hanging fixture and spacers to keep it vertical and away from the wall. Easy enough to DIY, but it should be a part of the design.
These kits are perfection. This is my 2nd major purchase & we are so thrilled with the quality, the instruction booklet is clear & easy to follow, the designs are unique & the kits really are so well constructed that the finished product is gratifying. My 12 yr old grandson built the "Kinetic Sculpture " kit alone, so don't think they are above kids' ability. If they can build Lego kits, they can build these. As intricate as they look, they are pretty uncomplicated. All they need is patience. A great product, anyone would enjoy one as a gift. We'll order many more of these.They are so beautiful they can be hung on a wall in yr living room, not hidden elsewhere. I can't wait to surprise him with the Pendulum kit & the 3 little Widgets kit this Christmas!! Customer service is so helpful & accessible if u have questions..

text: This study aimed to examine post-lesson observation conferencing discourse between university supervisors and physical education teacher education students. The authors conclude that the university supervisors demonstrated a collaborative style of conferencing that allowed preservice teachers plenty of opportunities to speak. Many factors impacted the time spent conferencing with the most important being time constraints. However, it was found that the supervisors recognized the importance of these constraints and have taken steps to allow for adequate time.

The 61-year-old son of a Jewish millionaire who built up a timber company from nothing, Bernard-Henri Lévy shot to the forefront of French intellectual life in the early 1970s as founder of the anti-Marxist New Philosophy Movement. He was one of the first French intellectuals to call for intervention in Bosnia in the 1990s and drew the world’s attention to Serbian concentration camps. More recently he helped found the Institute for Levinassian Studies in Jerusalem and Paris and was one of the first to call for an end to the genocide in Darfur.
Monocle: You have travelled widely to expose suffering and injustice. Why?
Bernard-Henri Lévy: Since the time of the Greeks, philosophy was practised in the street not in the office. Some believe that you can find this street in Saint Germain des Prés. Others believe that the street is a planetary one. I think the work of an intellectual is to go and see what no one else has. I think a writer or intellectual is never as much himself as when he tries to bear witness to what the world has organised itself to ignore.
M: Is that why you decided to visit Gaza after the recent conflict?
BHL: All the news bulletins I saw were utterly one-sided, causing a great deal of hysteria in France and Europe. I wanted to go and see for myself what was going on. It confirmed what I already knew; that wars are disgusting. What I saw of the Israeli army was a very different picture to the band of hardened old soldiers targeting civilians, shooting at women and children for fun, depicted by the press.
M: In 1981 you were in Afghanistan during the ultimately unsuccessful Soviet invasion. Do you think the Americans and their allies are fighting a similarly losing battle?
BHL: I was just as much in favour of intervention in Afghanistan seven years ago against al-Qaeda and the Taliban as I was opposed to the war in Iraq. Today the Taliban have already regained power in parts of the country. We cannot let a situation like this continue. The Taliban practises a form of fascism, which needs to be defeated. The question is how can we help the Afghans combat the Taliban? I went to Afghanistan in 2002 at the request of President Jacques Chirac and Prime Minister Lionel Jospin. I don’t think we’ve done much in seven years. Anglo-Franco and US special forces have been hunting down Taliban leaders in the mountain regions of Tora Bora but the real work of nation building and developing a democracy hasn’t been done.
M: Looking across the Afghan border, you describe Pakistan as “the biggest rogue state of all rogue states”. What do you think the international community should be doing to regulate this rogue state?
BHL: What the international community can do is review the terms of its alliance with Pakistan. There should not be unconditional support for Pakistan. There are three conditions in my mind: first there has to be a hunt for al-Qaeda leaders not just in the tribal zones but also in Pakistan’s major cities; secondly, Pakistan has to share control of its nuclear arsenal with its western allies and thirdly, Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence has to show that it is prepared to reform by purging itself of any employees sympathising with radical Islam. Pakistan’s big problem is that the secret services, which behave like a state within a state, are corrupted by Islamist groups.
M: But what’s the best way to fight Islamic fundamentalism?
BHL: Islamic fundamentalism is not a question of religion; it’s a political question. It’s not such a grave problem if people give the Koran a fundamentalist reading but if that impacts on laws politicians make or the behaviour of citizens then it becomes a political problem.
M: So can intervention work? What about in Darfur?
BHL: People should not be held responsible for the deviations of their leaders. We had to defend the Germans against Nazism and the people of Central Europe against communism; we have to defend Africa against those who say let the terrorists in Khartoum clean up Darfur. It’s every democrat’s duty to point this out.
M: Looking at your president, Sarkozy has begun to reduce the number of French troops in former African colonies such as Côte d’Ivoire and Rwanda. Is Africa a place Sarkozy doesn’t want to get mixed up in?
BHL: Africa is a black hole for the whole world, not just Sarkozy – apart from the Chinese who are pillaging it like the colonial empires did before them. Whether it’s from pillage or simple disinterest Africa has become the most disinherited continent in the world.
M: In your most recent book “Public Enemies”, you accuse Sarkozy of having run an election campaign founded on French people’s insecurities. How would you contrast this approach with Barack Obama’s?
BHL: One of the reasons Obama won the American election was because of his extraordinary positivity and optimism. From that point of view his approach was the complete opposite of Sarkozy’s.
M: Is this lack of positivity the reason why you live in New York for much of the time?
BHL: No. I voted against Sarkozy and for [former Socialist Party candidate] Ségolène Royal, but Sarkozy is not the devil. If I spend a lot of time in the US it’s because I like being there. The kind of radical intellectual debate I’m interested in is richer in America than it is in Europe at the moment.
1948: Born in Beni-Saf, northwestern Algeria, but is brought up in Paris.
1968: Enrols in Paris’s École Normale Supérieure and gains a degree in philosophy.
2005: Becomes well known in the US for his book, “American Vertigo”, in which he is chauffeur-driven across America in the footsteps of Alexis de Tocqueville.
2008: Publishes “Left in Dark Times”, attacking the European Left for being soft on Islamofascism – opening the way for future anti-Semitism, and virulently anti-American feeling.

Why Should The HDML 1321 Be Saved?
Why should Harbour Defence Motor Launch 1321 be saved?
In 2006 I had no idea that the adventure about to unravel was to take place so far from the comforts of home, nor that it would cost so much.
The Z Force were a band of courageous men that fought in the most gruelling conditions, men who gave their lives so that you and I might have a future in this land, our Australia.
This roller coaster ride took us (Geddes' family) to Gove Peninsula in the top end of Australia.
I recall the excitement as the plane circled. Which little dot down there was our warship?
We had invested $140,000 in purchasing the ship and an inheritance meant we had over $160,000 in funds to spend on bringing the boat back to it's WWII shape and take it back to its birthplace off Battery Point in Hobart, Tasmania.
The ship was not at all as described (in the sales advertisement). The HDML-1321 needed a lot of work on the engines and it took all our funds to make it ready to sail.
Through perseverance and dogged determination we had it ready to motor to Darwin (home to the Geddes family), all the while our funds were rapidly dwindling. In spite of this I became more and more attached to the wonderful story of the HDML-1321 and its colourful history of the motley crew who against all odds delivered men to behind enemy lines to observe and report and who delivered hope to the men and women whose job it was to protect this country from the threat of total annihilation.
As every obstacle took more of our funds I gained a dogged determination that this ship, this living legacy, would survive.
We made Darwin. By now it became apparent that sheer determination was not enough. I tried to gain interest (in the restoration of HMDL 1321) but was not able to convince anyone to help.
What followed was a desperate effort to make the ship ready to sell with the express desire that it would be restored and eventually find its rightful place in a a museum.
We had a brief window of hope (that HDML 1321 may be saved) when the federal police became involved in foiling a plot to use the ship for unlawful practices. We had the hope that after the event the federal police might pass the ship on to an authority with the wherewithal to restore it.
This fell through but with a good outcome for the police, thank goodness!
As every hope of saving this piece of history was slipping through our fingers, a last minute sale could have saved the ship. An offer of $25,000 was an assurance that the 1321 would be saved, but that was a thwarted by its devastating sinking (19 Oct 2016).
This ship was my chance to save an important part of history, my love of things past. The crew who inhabited this wooden ship may be gone, if it is lost then my desire to save it for future generations will be lost also.
We deserve to know what happened way back in 1944 with this ship and its missions to save our forefathers.
That we can touch the hull, see the portholes they looked out of, and in some small way connect across the years, their sacrifices were not in vain!
That is my wish, my desire, my hope!
PS: Not only did the sinking dash my hopes of saving her but it also meant that the harbour authorities will make a demand of us that all salvage costs are borne by us, this is impossible, we have few assets, no equity in our house, and are facing bankruptcy and losing everything.
Good buy and good luck HDML 1321.
Tracy Geddes was prepared to save our history for us throwing a great deal of her own funds into the the project and she is now facing losing everything for her efforts.
If we can raise the funds to lift this old ship out of the harbour so the cost does not have to be borne by Geddes family it will save not only the HDML 1321 but also save Ms Geddes from bankruptcy and keep her dreams alive by giving this ship a second chance to be restored.
I have not met Ms Geddes however she is not alone in her dreams of saving this ship, my father-in-law, Bro Palmer, is the son of the 1321's captain, Lt Ambrose Ernest Palmer, better known as Ernie.
Bro has also been involved in the efforts to restore her and is running the funding campaign. Since Wednesday when the HDML 1321 sunk many people have been working day and night to find a way to rescue this important piece of our heritage before it is too late and she just becomes a pile of salvage scrap.
You can help us to save her by donating the cost of your next coffee to the Save 1321 - Our Military Heritage gofundme campaign and by getting the word out there simply by sharing on your favourite social media platforms - just click the share buttons down below.
Comments and likes on any posts and articles help too.
Learn more about the adventures of HDML 1321 and her men in the novel The Guns of Machu.
An inspection of the sunken boat was done this morning, the Member for Darwin, Luke Gosling, and an ABC film crew were taken out by Rex Mitchell a local businessman with equipment that could raise the ship.
They met up with Tracy Geddes who was interviewed for a second time by Dijana Damjanovic.
This interview along with one with Luke Gosling will apparently be aired on the ABC tomorrow night.
The Darwin Port Authorities have only given until the 6th November 2016 to rescue 1321. That means she could be in the scrap yard by Remembrance Day on the 11th November.
This story has definitely grabbed my attention. As an American, it *could* be easy to overlook this part of history... Mostly because Australia's involvement in WW2 was non-existent during my education in "world" history class.
But I spent many years listening to the stories of my neighbor, a WW2 veteran, before he passed. He showed me a firsthand perspective of what soldiers faced, and taught me the importance of preserving as much of history as possible. The men that sailed the 1321 played a major role in the war, and they deserve to have the ship raised in their honor. I can't spare much, but I'll be donating in small amounts when I can. Good luck to this mission!
Oh Jenny, thank you so very much! We have such a short time frame to keep her from the scrap heap and every little bit matters at this point. If she hadn't sunk last week things would be different but it's a race now.
Thank you so much, every share really does help. Negotiations with the port authorities and local government are underway in the hopes that a bit more leeway will be given to this unique ship.
Stella, how exciting that the Geddes family have made it their personal mission to save the ship. Then, how devastating when it sunk.
I sure hope y'all can save it!
I'm working hard at getting the news out there. There was a news crew on site yesterday and we hope they will air the story today. If we can make enough noise hopefully we can get a bit more time to raise funds.
If Darwin Port Authority follow through with that date then they have a lot to answer for. What is tghe AWM saying about this?
I would like to know the answer to that too!
Thanks to everyone for the help and support, especially purfylle.
If we can get enough people asking then surely they will extend the time?
What an amazing thing to do. I do hope the ship can be saved.
Thank you Lyn. We are hoping Darwin Port Authority will give an extension of time.
I love old photos. These days I can take a hundred shots to get just the right photo should I need to, but taking photos back then required so much more care to get the shot right first time.
I'm ever so grateful to live the lifestyle Australia offers today. A lifestyle that we may never have had if it had not been for the missions undertaken by heroes like the crew of the HDML1321.
Good luck with the selvage operation, I hate to think a piece of history will be lost forever.
It would be a terrible shame and all for lack of time.

Summary: Hollo-Bolts provided a quick installation method which helped Derby Arena to win a Structural Steel Design Award.
For over 50 years, The British Constructional Steelwork Association (BCSA) has organised the Structural Steel Design Awards. The aim of the awards is to ‘recognise the high standard of structural and architectural design attainable in the use of steel and its potential in terms of efficiency, cost effectiveness, aesthetics and innovation.’ Lindapter’s Hollo-Bolts helped the contractors to achieve these criteria and therefore win the award. The judges even commented that the building’s success owes much to careful integration of architecture and engineering.
The circular structure was formed by faceting steel members and the facades were clad in horizontal strips of aluminium which mimic the board pattern of the velodrome track.
The glass barrier slotted into a steel channel that was secured back to the sides of the velodrome track using Hollo-Bolts. Specified by Bland & Swift, the Lindapter Hollo-Bolts provided a quick installation of the barrier around the entire 250m cycle track without the need for drilling or welding. The quick and simple installation process helped the sub-contractor to save time on the installation.
Bland and Swift were confident that Hollo-Bolts were the right choice for the crash barrier because of Lindapter’s industry leading product approvals and over 80 years’ experience in steelwork connections. Although Lindapter today is used throughout the world on various projects, the first blind fastener was pioneered by Lindapter, in Bradford, in 1948.

Some clients prefer the option of walking whilst talking and this is avilable at specific times each week with Maria Farmery. I have a love of nature and the outdoors and this can be of therapeutic benefit in addition to the support provided by counselling and coaching. We agree a meeting place in a local park in the Surrey area where our conversation and the environment is confidential and safe.
"I look forward to our weekly walk & talk sessions. What could be better than being outdoors, having the space to talk and getting exercise?" (S., Sutton).
Our first meeting would be in one of the 2 practice locations in Carshalton Beeches or Sutton, Surrey and then we would agree when and where to meet each week. The walking session would last for 50 minutes and we would agree the number of sessions in advance and review regularly. The cost per session is the same at £50.
Walk & Talk takes place in local parks in the Surrey area after the initial meeting. The practice is from 2 locations: Sutton (SM2 5JS) and Carshalton Beeches (SM5 3NL). Both are easily accessible from: Banstead, Cheam, Wallington, Epsom, Ewell, Croydon, Purley, Morden and throughout the Sutton and Surrey area. There is free car parking available and each is close to bus and train routes (Sutton and Carshalton Beeches rail stations).

via Caribbean News Now BASSETERRE, St Kitts -- The government of St Kitts and Nevis has targeted telecommunications and technology as sectors that will play a critical role in the sustainability and growth of the twin-island Federation.
This was outlined by the Minister responsible for Information Technology and Telecommunications, Glenn Phillip, on Wednesday as he weighed in on the parliamentary debate for the 2011 Budget.
The application of technology to reduce costs and improve efficiency has been evident in the public sector. In 2010, a human resource information system (HRIS) was launched to track payroll, benefits administration and performance record. A similar system was launched in the Joseph N. France General Hospital to help with inventory controls and the disbursement of medicines to patients.
Phillip added that the communication cost of government will be tackled in the New Year with the introduction of a new system for internal and external communication.
While the infrastructure and related hardware and software components have been or are being installed, the human resource capacity is also being uplifted. Phillip indicated that this year, the National Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Centre has hosted over 900 persons from various private and public sector institutions for a number of training programs.
“Public officials from health institutions, from the tax and banking institutions, from education tourism and national security, have all been the beneficiaries of computer based training programs conducted at the center,” he told the National Assembly.
“Mr Speaker, as we see growth in technology and telecommunications, it is incumbent upon the government to ensure that the legislative platform is in place which allows for the conduct of e-commerce, provides e-evidence in court, fights crime through the interception of communications, and establishes the privacy and data protection to the ordinary citizens and our business require,” he continued.
“To that end, earlier this year we were the host to an important meeting – part of a regional series – which seeks to establish a common and harmonized legislative platform, to ensure that our legislation keeps pace with the requirements of the changing technological and telecommunications space,” Phillip said.
“The result of such harmonized legislation, places our country in alignment with the positions existent in the CARICOM region, and is in line with international standards that affect our ability to trade with the world. The effect is that our legislative platform meets with the expected norms, practices and protections expected in our relationships with potential investors and other partners,” he said.
He added that government will continue to provide opportunities for students to pursue higher level and professional qualifications in technology at universities and other institutions of higher learning.

It is a peculiarity of Evgeny Morozov, the foremost critic of our Twitterific age, that he could write 4,000 words in the New Yorker disemboweling the "Maker" movement without giving any indication whatsoever that he had ever talked to a single Maker or even so much as attended a Maker Faire.
It's peculiar, but not surprising. This is Morozov's self-admitted shtick. He grapples with the arguments that people make about things, instead of the people or the things themselves.
For a hands-on, do-it-yourself phenomenon like the Maker movement, the Morozov approach has some obvious drawbacks. It is one thing to claim, as Morozov does, that the Makers, like their forebears in the Arts and Crafts movement in the 19th century, will be "doomed" by their "reluctance to talk about institutions and political change" into "channelling the spirit of labor reform into consumerism and D.I.Y. tinkering." Morozov might well be right in this. The Makers may not unleash the "revolution" that so many Maker evangelists claim is inevitable. And where there is hype, there is a myriad of opportunities for a man bearing a sharp lampoon.
But by confining himself to attacking the overweening Maker rhetoric, Morozov misses the fun. And by missing the fun, he misses the point.
I went to a Maker Faire last year and delighted in rubbing elbows with an excited crowd -- diverse in age, class, race and gender -- that exulted in getting its hands dirty with everything from 3-D printers to Lego sets to knitting needles to giant Tesla coils. I did not need to parse the political implications of this happy hubbub for its implications for the future of the working class to understand that there was something obviously healthy about the energy bubbling over at the Faire. Compared to your typical amusement park the gathering was an anarchic, collectively engineered, upwelling of nerdy positivity. You didn't come to the Faire to be entertained. You came to entertain yourself. You came to learn and teach and play.
Is a third industrial revolution in the offing? I don't know. But what is indisputable is that the tools of production are cheaper to obtain and easier to use than ever before -- and that development must have some sort of significance.
Morozov does not directly deny that the means of production have been made more affordable. But he elides this absolutely crucial point by saying that the difficulties of gaining access to capital or expensive tools have been replaced by the difficulty of getting the attention necessary to make your Kickstarter dreams come true.
It is deeply befuddling to me that someone as smart as Morozov does not see that getting attention is a far, far easier thing to do in the age of digital networks than gaining access to capital or global production-and-supply networks. (And relatedly, the amount you need to raise today to get your idea out of your head and into production is much less than in our pre-3-D printing days.) Sure, some people are better than others at amassing followers and launching viral memes, but that does not mean that opportunity hasn't been democratized at all.
A Maker Faire is exciting because you see all these neat things happening and you realize that you too can join the party. The Maker movement is an evolutionary response to the possibilities opened up by, yes, "the Internet," and it is clearly a different beast from what came before.
Does it threaten the current political and capitalist hegemony? No. Will pieces of it be co-opted by the owners of capital? Absolutely!
But neither of these facts mean that we should abandon all hope of figuring out how to nourish the truly liberating aspects of this movement. Breaking the link between ownership of capital and opportunity is a task of incalculable importance. We should be cheering it on, not mocking it.

Stretching from the Equator in the north to the edges of Antarctica in the south, South America is a vast continent that boasts the world’s largest rainforest, its largest driest desert (Atacama desert), and its longest mountain range (the Andes). The huge range of temperatures and geographical features supports a continent teeming with a tremendous variety of flora and fauna.
The South American continent is a veritable paradise for bird watchers, who can gaze upon indigenous species of waved Albatross in the Galapagos, watch Penguin chicks hatching near the edges of Argentina, and spot huge clusters of pink Flamingos in Bolivia.
Millions of years of isolation from the mainland has given rise to a very unique abundance of wildlife in the Galapagos islands, firs made famous as the place where Charles Darwin theorized his historic ‘On the Origin of Species’. The Waved Albatross is the largest bird in the Galapagos. With a wingspan of 7-8 feet, it is a dominating presence in the skies of the islands. This bird is characterised by a yellowish-white neck that sits atop a brownish body, and a strikingly large and yellow beak. The birds breed only on the Espanola island, and they mate for life.
At a depth of 13,650 feet, the Colca Canyon of Peru is almost twice as deep as the Grand Canyon in the USA. This natural wonder is also home to the famous Andean Condor, which, at nearly 10.5 feet long, possesses the largest wingspan of any bird in the world. The Andean Condor occupies a special place in local culture, history and mythology, and has been the subject of an intense conservation effort in the past two decades.
These birds are threatened by extinction and sightings are difficult, although spotting the one in full flight is a sight few can ever forget.
The Harpy Eagle is the largest bird of the raptor family in the Americas. Its largest concentration can be found in the rainforests of Panama, where it is also the national bird. With a wingspan of 6 to 7 feet, the Harpy Eagle is a magnificent presence in the sky. The distinctive white plumage of the birds makes them easy to identify, even from a distance. Tiourists can travel to the Panamanian jungle on specially guided tours to watch these majestic birds in their dwindling natural habitat.
The Bolivian Altiplano is the highest range of high plateau in the world after Tibet. The southern reaches of the Altiplano is home to a huge concentration of Flamingo filled lakes, which are brushed pink with the brilliant plumage of the birds. The Andean Altiplano plays host to both the Andean Flamingo, and the James’ Flamingo, both of which migrate to its many lakes in the winter season. Human interaction and a loss of habitat has placed the Andean Flamingo under threat, so bird fans are advised to get their sightings in now while there are some still around.
The southern edges of South America are home to the Magellanic Penguin, a smaller penguin species that survives in the relatively warmer climates of Argentina, southern Chile and the Falkland Islands. Further south, as the continent tips into the Antarctic, one can encounter the famous Emperor Penguins. Every year, thousands of tourists throng the southern coast of Argentina to witness Magellanic chicks hatching, and take a further trip down south to Antarctica to look at Emperor penguin chicks being born.
Endemic species of macaws, waved Albatrosses, penguins, eagles and vultures make South America a must-stop for every bird lover!

I’d not been to a Glee Club evening before, and that’s part of the reason for checking one out. The vibe is a bit different from the sometimes chaotic feel of a Just The Tonic show, with an annoying MC getting people psyched up for the acts with the saccharine-sinister vibe of a gameshow host.
Compere Matt Reed did a good job at baiting the audience into life with predictable but effective stuff to stoke regional rivalries and winkle out any foreigners in the audience for singling out. It’s not quite as UKIP rally as that sounds, but that’s how they get the punters warmed up in comedy – as with football, where you’re from counts.
While Matt’s doing that, he’s laying the law down too, which is mostly about telling people to shut up while the acts are doing their thing. He’s right – how often do you ever hear a good heckle at a show? Matt’s there in part to soak up the abuse…let people heckle him, and he’ll soak it up so the headliners don’t have their acts spoiled. It’s a tough job, and Matt handles it well.
The three acts were all new to me, and I’ll concentrate on the two that made the biggest impact. Zoe Lyons makes sly capital of being a Brighton lesbian – she plays with the stereotypical expectations the audience has, and manages both to send them up and confirm them. Somewhere along the line Zoe make a gear shift and reminisces about being taught by nuns. It wasn’t a happy time. Humour is a way of turning that misery and fury into something that can be shared with an audience. And it’s not just nuns that get stick. Zoe recalls confession, which was essentially being locked in a wardrobe with a priest, and wondering if she should have asked whether he’d got anything he needed to get off his chest. It’s a powerful moment, the groundwork nicely prepared so the audience are sure just what she means by that innocuous sounding question.
Mick Ferry is an enigma. He comes on stage looking like an old school tubby comedian with a haircut that’s part Peaky Blinders, part Flock of Seagulls. Quickly, he establishes his working class roots to bond with and rain abuse on some of the audience – he targets a white guy with dreadlocks, and makes short shrift of someone whose job title of acquisitions manager is a short route to low hanging comedy fruit. Then things take a turn for the abstract, and Mick turns the persona he’s created inside-out to muse on what he does at the prompting of his internal voices…like breaking into the polar bear cage at a zoo, anally pleasuring one of the animals with his fingers while kids looking on tell him he’s feeding it wrong. Top entertainment, all round.
Glee Club Foodie Friday was on Friday 18 August 2017.

The increase in the information collected and available at European level in the field of water is largely influenced by the increase in the importance of Europe in environmental protection policy especially for aquatic environments.
At the same time, policies for making information available to citizens have emerged such as the Directive on public access to environmental information (Directive 2003/4 / EC).
More recently, a directive on access to geographic information known as the INSPIRE Directive (INSPIRE Directive 2007/2 / EC) obliges Member States to make their geographical data accessible and better documented so that they can be reused and enhanced.
IOWater, in charge of the SANDRE in France, is at the core of the provision of data and references and therefore a key stakeholder for the implementation of this Directive in France, but also for a possible European adaptation.
The "SIIF" thus contributes to reduce the users’ administrative burden, by automating and simplifying the visualization.
The implementation of SIIF for wastewater treatment data by IOWater on behalf of the DG Environment of the European Commission aimed at speeding up the availability of data and improving their management by using interoperability. The geographical component of wastewater data is essential as these data are based on four geographical objects, namely agglomerations, wastewater treatment plants, discharge points and wastewater receiving areas (including sensitive areas where specific treatment must be applied.
It was therefore essential to organize the system from the beginning in order to comply with the requirements of the INSPIRE Directive, thereby contributing to reducing the administrative burden on users by automating and simplifying the visualization and provision of data through “services” required by the Directive. The tool, by providing a compatible basic structure, allows any country to be in step with these requirements without having to analyze in detail how to do it.
The experience gained with SIIF UWW enables IOWater to offer its services for possible extensions of the system to all types of data, assistance to operators for a better integration of the developed system with their own system, even the creation of a metadata catalogue conforming to the INSPIRE Directive, starting from the water topic.
