What shall we debate?
December 12, 2013 by John Barron 35 Comments
Atticus, a contributor to Sifting Reality, has offered to me a debate on a topic yet to be determined. Of the proposed topics, we are not far enough apart to create a clear pro and con position. We are looking for suggestions from our readers.

Were the founders mostly Christian or mostly something else?
TerranceH says:
Anyone with a brainstem that has even a fundamental grasp of early American history can answer that question. Hint: the former is true.
Plus, John has proved this point time and again on this blog. The problem with atheists is that they think they're enlightened and know better than anyone else. Even when their atheist propaganda is clearly false, they'll insist its true because they suffer from delusions of grandeur. They think they're smarter than believers and must prove this somehow. I hate to generalize, but that's my experience with them.
Terrance,
While I have had experiences that reflect your sentiments, Atticus seems capable of bringing some serious game. I think he would lose this debate, but would like to see how he'd support his side, if he indeed believes the founders were mostly something other than Christian.
John Barron says:
Atticus already said there are only a handful of founders he can quote, but because they are more famous they count more than the other 95%.
Atticus is a fine chap, I'm sure. But on this issue, he's not. He's already proven to be unreliable. He issues falsehoods.
Atticus C. says:
To clarify I do not think that most of the founders were not Christian (as John mentioned above). I do believe that there is strong evidence that probably a dozen or so were deist and were not impacted by religion, but more so by the enlightenment and age of reason ideology.
I think my overall point is that that the dozen or so group of deist had as much impact on modern society as the other 100 or so combined. (While I concede that there is a good argument either way) I also think that the other 100 or so were smart and courageous enough NOT to push their religious beliefs on anyone, but rather tried to design a system that was build around liberty and freedom and not a state religion.
We could probably squeeze a debate out of this, but I think we'd end up agreeing a lot and disagreeing on some of the finer details.
Atticus,
So because a "dozen or so" Founders were diest and not impacted by religion, that means…what? That this country isn't founded on Judeo-Christian values? That is a stretch.
In order to believe as you do, you must discount the DoI, the Constitutions of the 13 orginal colonies, the Paris Peace Treaty of 1783, the Northwest Ordiance, and varous other early American documents.
However, I won't run roughshod over the historical record and suggest that our Founders wanted a Christian theocracy. I don't believe that at all. My argument is that Judeo-Christian values served as America's foundation – and that's true. But why is that a point of contention with atheists? It's a damn good thing. It produced a country that recognizes the inherent worth of every human being, no matter their race, gender, or creed. Why is it tabboo to admit the facts?
Hello John Barron,
Since you have behaved and continue to behave in a dishonest and dishonorable manner, including editing posts and censorship and plagiarism (quoting Frederick Douglass as a blog post without attributing the quote and distinguishing your own racist sentiments from the words of another human who wasn't a racist), I think it quite impossible for you to engage in a debate with anyone, including an opponent as easy as Atticus.
You have displayed all of the worst traits of Christianity in your behavior and there isn't any potential for you to begin defending Christianity from criticism (since you have demonstrated both a lack of education and a lack of intellect along with your lack of character).
Needless to say, your religion is wrong, your god imaginary, and your Bible a book filled with tall tales and lies. It really is an indefensible book.
And that, David, is why your comments will no longer be permitted.
And why not a word from a halfwit whose criticism of Christianity is based on logical fallacies. Incredible. You should have been banned a long time ago but benevolent 'ol John saw fit to give you another chance. Silly. You don't add anything to the conversation, except perhaps entertainment during one of your infantile rants. You suffer from delusions of grandeur, believing everything you post is pure gold when in fact its pure bullshit.
@TerranceH
"My argument is that Judeo-Christian values served as America's foundation – and that's true."
I do agree that many of the values and morals expressed in the creation of the United States are the same as Judeo-Christian values, but that does not make those values and morals exclusively the property of Judeo-Christianity. Those same morals and values could be attributed Secular humanist beliefs, parts of Islam, Buddhism, etc. etc.
"But why is that a point of contention with atheists? It's a damn good thing. It produced a country that recognizes the inherent worth of every human being, no matter their race, gender, or creed. Why is it tabboo to admit the facts?"
I think the reason many Atheist and Agnostics find this a point of contention is because they feel that Christian's try to imply that the moral philosophy applied by the founding fathers is exclusively the property and invention of Christianity. Instead, most non-religious thinkers try to separate the moral and ethical from that which is exclusively religious. Meaning the nation was not founded on Christian values, but rather by many Christian's who happened to share a philosophy of decent values also shared by many non-Christians.
That might be difficult for a Christian to relate to since most Christians believe that there is no morality outside of God because he created it in each of us. That is not to say that an Atheist can't be moral, but just that God created those morals. Most Atheists and Agnostics believe that morality is derived from nature and our ability to reason.
Mengele was a big proponent of science and reason.
The point is, Atticus, that the founders did what they did because of their Christianity, not that what they did and why they did it coincidentally lined up with it.
I think atheists are afraid of our Christian founding because they think to admit it means we must go back.
My position is one of verifiable history, not advocacy. Our country has moved away from our Christian-influenced founding, but it doesnt mean it never happened.
The cultural origin of concepts like "justice," "freedom," and "equality" is strictly Judeo-Christian in the Western world. It may be the case that some Eastern religions share similar concepts, but the fact remains that in the United States, the origin is Judeo-Christian. Hence, the foundation of the United States is Judeo-Christian. It is that orthodoxy – none other – that influenced our Founders.
Some Judeo-Christian concepts are shared by other groups, but generally, the Judeo-Christian value set is unique and complex. It includes the aforementioned as well as ideas like free will, individual accountability, the struggle of an imperfect creature to do good and resit evil, and so on. I have yet to come across another orthodoxy which shares these attributes. I can't think of any. And you won't be able to either, since some of these attributes are strictly Judeo-Christian beliefs.
Your stock answers fly in the face of common sense and historical truth.
Benjamin Franklin said,
"As to Jesus of Nazareth, my opinion of whom you particularly desire, I think the system of morals and His religion as He left them to us, the best the world ever saw or is likely to see." [1]
George Washington said,
"The blessing and protection of Heaven are at all times necessary but especially so in times of public distress and danger. The General hopes and trusts that every officer and man will endeavor to live and act as becomes a Christian soldier, defending the dearest rights and liberties of his country." [2]
1.Benjamin Franklin, Works of Benjamin Franklin, John Bigelow, editor (New York: G.P. Putnam's Sons, 1904), p. 185, to Ezra Stiles, March 9, 1790.
2. George Washington, The Writings of George Washington, John C. Fitzpatrick, editor (Washington: Government Printing Office, 1932), Vol. 5, p. 245, July 9, 1776.
I think a more accurate rendering would be to say that the atheist, particularly the atheist of the Western world, is as guided by Judeo-Christian philosophy as any Jew or Christian, minus those aspects that are decidedly religious, with those of today dispensing with a few other aspects, most of which are sexual. It would be more accurate, then, to say that the atheist's morality is in alignment with the Judeo-Christian morality.
@marshalart
I think that is a Christian perspective and I get it; however, an Atheist would argue that those morals existed long before Christianity. Rather Christianity borrowed from existing morals and implemented them into their system (especially via the New Testament and the teachings of Jesus). So an Atheist may argue that the founders practiced existing morality, that was picked up by Christianity, then later picked up by secular humanist, and so on. The morals aren't "Christian morals" they are morals that are used by all moralist – secular or religious. The Christian perspective would obviously be different.
Two things I need to point out regarding your quotes:
1. All of the founders were well aware of the public being predominantly Christian so they pandered to the will of the people for political effectiveness. They took the good examples of Christianity and used it in their writings and language to call to action the people. Much like a modern president may refer to examples of the Buddha if he were giving a speech in Thailand. It was a tactic utilized by many great thinkers. Thomas Paine, for example, called upon God in many of his famous writings (common sense and rights of man, specifically). He later says in "Age of Reason" (his second to last writing) that he waited to publish "Age of Reason" and reveal his opinion of religion because he knew it would be unpopular and render his other works less effective. So taking a founder's writing out of context, unless it is specifically in regards to their personal beliefs, is usually not very helpful.
2. I do not think any Atheist will deny that the teachings of Jesus weren't great. I personally think, as a historical figure, he was one of the great revolutionaries. It truly cost him his life. I just think, for many reasons, that anything supernatural is a fabrication. There is evidence that suggest that many of the founders felt the same way (see the Jeffersonian Bible, for example). So it is not surprising that the founders called upon Jesus – it served two purposes. One, it is good advise. Two, the people held those words as divine. As a politician you would be crazy not to use the bible as a reference when it suites your needs.
Atticus, where is the documentation affirming that the founders pandered to their constituents? Or is this speculation?
I cited Thomas Paine as an example. Thomas Jefferson and Ben Franklin are other examples. They talk about Jesus and Christianity several times, but reveal privately that they are not Christians (they were deists). So those are three examples.
If you want more examples, specific speeches and personal letters…well maybe I'll do a blog post. :)
Thomas Payne was not a founding father, he was the 18th century version of Rush Limbaugh. Jefferson was a professing Christian even if not by todays orthodox standards, and Franklin was highly sympathetic to Christianity though wasnt openly a christian.
I concede that Paine was not a founding father (he didn't sign the declaration), but I think he deserves to be in the conversation. He was a little more than a Rush Limbaugh, haha. He had a direct line to the founders, was personal friends with Presidents, and an adviser to many.
Jefferson was not a Christian. He did not believe Jesus was God. He did study Christianity and took some of its teachings seriously. He was accused of being atheist. I think this is a decent summary, but there are better out there: http://freethought.mbdojo.com/foundingfathers.html#Jefferson
I agree that Franklin was Franklin was highly sympathetic to Christianity (at least the good parts). I would argue that I am also sympathetic to Christianity – doesn't change much.
Jefferson in his own words claims to be a Christian. You probably shouldnt get your history form 'freethought' blogs.
@Atticus
When you reference "the Jefferson Bible" which one are you referring to? There are two.
@John
This one: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jefferson_Bible
Also interesting: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Jefferson_and_religion
Wikipedia is not always reliable when it comes to issues like this. It's better to go to original sources, such as their writings themselves. But just taking your own citation, jefferson said this of his 1804 version: Jefferson wrote, "A more beautiful or precious morsel of ethics I have never seen; it is a document in proof that I am a real Christian, that is to say, a disciple of the doctrines of Jesus."
Jefferson's claim to be a Christian was made in response to those who accused him of being otherwise, due to his unorthodox view of the Bible and conception of Christ
So you retract your statement about him not being a Christian I take it?
"A more beautiful or precious morsel of ethics I have never seen; it is a document in proof that I am a real Christian, that is to say, a disciple of the doctrines of Jesus."
It seems to me that Jefferson was pretty clear. He is a disciple of the doctrines of Jesus. The DOCTRINES, not Jesus himself. I would say the same thing. Words matter. Context matters.
Jefferson did not believe in the divinity of Jesus nor the miracles of the bible. Jefferson is also making commentary about what a "real" Christian is in his eyes. We get further context by the Jefferson Bible where he detracts anything supernatural, but leaves in the moral context.
Jefferson valued the bible for its moral lessons, as there are many good examples, but denied the supernatural element. (Though Jefferson drew from many sources on morality and ethics)
To be a Christian, by Christianity's own standards, one has to believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God, the Savior of souls, and the second coming of God – not just a good moral teacher and revolutionary. There is a clear distinction.
His edited bible was to collect the teachings of Jesus, the 1804 was specifically crafted for use in evangelization to Indians, as says the title. Do you have documentation from Jefferson himself stating he didnt believe the miracles? Especially since some of them were included in both of his Jefferson Bibles?
You know he helped fund full unabridged Bibles that were to be distributed, don't you? His own 'versions' had specific purposes, they werent meant to take out "only the stuff he believed".
Are you still getting your information from skeptic's blogs, or are you trying to find the documentation yourself?
Let me take a timeout and do some independent research. I'm going to do a blog post on this. I've read everything you are say and the counterarguments, but I want to get all of the data in one place and evaluate it. Give me a couple of days. It's an interesting topic.
when you say independent research, I hope you use documentation from before 1850. There's plenty at the library of congress site, and also the Avalon Project site for earliest american documents.
I would hate to see a list of citations from modern authors' comments. It's best to use the founders own words rather than speculations based on a particular silence.
I plan to use original documentation and to put it in historical context. It will take a few nights of free time to plug through enough of it to draw a reasonable conclusion.
1. All of the founders were well aware of the public being predominantly Christian so they pandered to the will of the people for political effectiveness.
Like John said, you're speculating – and little else. Additionally, how is it possible that virtually the entire population was Christian but the Founders were only pretending? Does that sound reasonable to you? Were they pandering in their private letters to each other? Because I can show you image files of the actual letters from the actual Founders, like John Adams, in which they claim to be Christian.
They took the good examples of Christianity and used it in their writings and language to call to action the people. Much like a modern president may refer to examples of the Buddha if he were giving a speech in Thailand. It was a tactic utilized by many great thinkers. Thomas Paine, for example, called upon God in many of his famous writings (common sense and rights of man, specifically). He later says in "Age of Reason" (his second to last writing) that he waited to publish "Age of Reason" and reveal his opinion of religion because he knew it would be unpopular and render his other works less effective. So taking a founder's writing out of context, unless it is specifically in regards to their personal beliefs, is usually not very helpful.
Thomas Paine was not a Founding Father. Regardless, this isn't worth debating any more since you've been proven wrong time and time again. although you won't admit it. All evidence in contrast to your belief is meaningless, you think. You write it off as pandering.
First, what you think doesn't matter as it's demonstrably false. Second, if there is evidence that "many" of the Founders felt the way you do, then please show us the proof. You'll be proven wrong, of course, but it's gonna be entertaining.
As an aside, I'm saddened to hear of David's banishment. Though as deserving of such an action as any can be, I find such visitors entertaining as they go to incredibly desperate lengths to alter reality to their liking. Exposing such is most enjoyable. David distinguishes himself in his constant insistence that the failings of mankind are attributable to belief systems to which they might adhere, leaving for himself no excuse whatsoever except that he is, like the rest of us, imperfect. His intrepid lunacy will be missed…unless he wishes to try his luck at my place: marshallart.blogspot.com
I didnt really want to ban him. I don't care about his rants, but when he isnt even discussing the topic and only insulting everyone, its just not worth it.
I write these things to discuss.
I know. I just have a sick side that derives pleasure in forcing such people to defend themselves. It's not much different than insisting that anyone defends their position, but people like David tend to melt down rather than dare allow their paradigms to shift. I find that funny.
I like it too. They get so offended when you dont give their rants credence.

Macy Gray's debut album ON HOW LIFE IS made here an R&B superstar, and the followup THE ID keeps pace with the stellar reputation its predecessor garnered. As before, Gray eschews the played-out trappings of so much contemporary R&B. Instead of drum loops, self-consciously retro-sounding analog synths, and easily recognizable samples, Macy surrounds herself with live drums, piano, organ, strings, and the other elements that once were standard fare in R&B and are now considered "organic."
Riding atop it all is her quirky, distinctive, Patti Labelle-meets-Eartha Kitt voice and her decidedly outspoken lyrics. Even more than on her previous album, Gray delightfully turns the tables on male R&B stars who've always been only too proud to promote their sexual freakhood. On several songs here, Macy boldly claims freakiness as a female attribute to be trumpeted from the rooftops. On the album's catchiest tune, "Relating to a Psychopath," she humorously extends her freewheeling outlook to mental dysfunction, underscoring things with some Sly Stone-like psychedelic soul flavor by ending the song with a flurry of phasing and stereo panning. Whether indulging in a full-on torch ballad or getting righteously funky, Macy rules THE ID with a grace befitting the new-school Queen of Soul.
Rolling Stone (9/27/01, p.66) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...Filled with upbeat funk and mellow soul and exquisitely crafted songs about love and sex, with a little violence and a lot of humor.... she's really come into her own ..."

Questions Regarding Height
AngstyJellyfish replied to FairreLilette's topic in Role Play
Your avatar looks lovely! My first thought is definitely "fairy", not "child". From what I can tell what makes a "child avatar" has a lot to do with proportions and facial features, like the difference between rl kids and rl adults. Children you'll typically see with rounder faces, little to no makeup, stockier proportions, and small or no breasts depending on the age range they're going for. The wings are a pretty obvious sign that she's a fairy and if they're prim that're probably decently visible from a distance. When I see pointy ears or wings on a small avatar my immediate thought is either "fairy" or "elf". By looks alone you're likely pretty safe. The way you type and act will play a big part too. As long as she's not acting like a child or typing like a child I wouldn't see any reason to suspect her. All of that said, you're still going to run into people that will report first, examine never. Anime avatars, Small avatars, and Androgynous avatars are increasingly under fire. To the point where utilizator posted a PSA about it on their site a few months ago. Some may be well meaning, others may be trolls. Either way, you're probably safest sticking to General and Moderate places.
How do families members meet one another in the first place?
AngstyJellyfish replied to pinkpatrol's topic in Role Play
You may find family in the place you least expect and it doesn't have to be an rp family at all. My friends are like family to me, but we all know one another rl too so I can't really speak from my own experience about finding purely sl family. I can share with you an experience that was shared with me though. I knew a woman in sl that had an sl brother whom she had never even met rl. They started off as friends, but grew closer as they talked and got to know one another and spent time together. Eventually it reached a point where they loved each other like they would any blood sibling, thinking about one another like brother and sister. So, they officially labeled themselves as sl brother and sister. I may be different for others. I'm not sure. What I take away from this though is that it just happens naturally like it would in real life. Relationships begin and then they evolved as they grow. Some fail, some turn into romance, and others turn into honorary family. It doesn't have to be siblings either, you can have any kind of honorary family: mothers, fathers, uncles, aunts, grandparents, kids, etc. My parents had an honorary brother that was like an uncle to my siblings and I. We never considered him anything less than family. Perhaps examine the dynamic with your sl friends and determine whether you would consider them best friends or family? You may already have an sl family out there without even knowing it.
House Invaders
AngstyJellyfish replied to AngstyJellyfish's topic in General Discussion Forum
I know. SL as a whole probably isn't the best place for him considering that everybody you would ever be talking to is a real person, not an NPC. It's also one of the most freeform place to create and build next to garry's mod and being the creative sort I doubt I could convince him to leave. I've known him since elementary and he always leaves the socializing up to me or one of our other friends while he works on the creative or technical side. Another friend in our group that has some experience in marketing sells the things he makes for him.
He was shoved into a corner of the second floor of the house but aside from that there's no telling exactly what was done. He was afk, so all we know is that the person entered the house, at some point decided to shove his avatar as far as they could given the fact the walls are solid, and left at some point. One of the concerns that were raised by another friend in our friend group was "what if the person did something unsavoury?" It's something she's witnessed a few times around sl and something I've seen once in a g rated sandbox, which we've reported each time, where an avatar is clearly afk or set to away and either they get shoved into a corner or the offender is close to them and they start posing in ways that could potentially result in both avatars getting banned. Just the other week I was in a sandbox working on texturing some flowers to use as decor later and suddenly my avatar was trapped in a bubble that was eternally moving upwards and I had to teleport to another location, all of my stuff left behind because I couldn't cam to it to pick it up. Thank you. I appreciate the advice, and I'm sorry people bother you like that. It's never fun. I'm glad you have more luck with getting them to leave you alone. I do try to ask them to stop, but it never really works. Asking them why they're doing it never seems to yield results for me either. I might be too polite. Some of my friend will certainly get good use out of this method though.
It's not unrealistic to expect common courtesy from others. I don't expect anything of anybody else that I don't expect of myself. Unless someone is breaking the the law it's just rude to invade the space where someone else is working or tough they stuff without permission and regardless of the situation it's rude to run into them. There are several reasons. The most important is that I'm very close to my friends and I care about them very deeply. They're like family. So when they're upset or worried I can't help but be upset or worried right along with them. When somebody hurts somebody I care about it hurts me too. Another is that I was raised to believe that manners are extremely important and you should always be considerate of others. It may not seem like a big deal to some but to me it definitely is. My consideration for others is the reason I'm not naming anybody because despite everything I still don't want to cause them any trouble. Lastly, this is the straw that broke the camel's back, as the saying goes. My entire group of friends has been noticing or experiencing things like this since we joined sl but in the past few days these kinds of incidents have shown a marked increase. Please explain? There's not really much more than a few seconds, or none at all, when you have to afk suddenly.
It bothers me because he's my friend and I feel bad when my friends feel bad. And I know how I would feel if it happened to me. There's such a thing as common courtesy even in public places. Whether it's rl or sl you should still be conscious of other people and what they're working on. If people are building a stage in a public park for a play in the evening you're not just going to go walk all over it or shove them while they're taking a short break. For some reason people seem to think that just because the world is virtual then it's ok to do that sort of thing. And yet they still get upset about griefers who follow that same thought process. I know I would never do something like that because it's terribly rude. When you have to leave suddenly, or, whoever forbid, you crash, it's not always possible to take your stuff up before you go. I've had to deal with the same kind of phone calls, being an assistant manager at my workplace. When you get a frantic call from a new employee saying "I don't know where ? is and I need it to complete ? before my shift ends! I asked ? and they don't know either and I can't just use ? because we don't get more until the truck comes in!" you can't exactly tell them "ok. i know that's super important and you could lose your job over it and it may only take like 15 minutes tops to help you with it but can you just give me a few minutes to select all these objects I haven't linked yet and take them into my inventory and then log out so I don't have to worry about too-curious people with no boundaries bothering them or me. After that we can deal with your thing." I know his job isn't retail but he still gets plenty of calls just like that that are urgent. We checked her profile but it isn't in English so I don't understand it and it isn't in German so it's neither of the two languages he's fluent in. Running it through google translate there isn't anything like that in there though, just a one sentence tagline type statement. The avatar and username were female and the profile picture appears to be a vampire, so I don't think it's the same guy. I'd be more understanding if it was that guy. After all, my friend is on the autism spectrum (it's public knowledge he doesn't mind being shared) and I've got my problems (which I do mind sharing). If it were me in that situation I'd likely tell him politely to please not do it again though I imagine my friend would be more blunt. Still, it would be a different situation than the one that happened. Perhaps it isn't as serious as somebody breaking into your home but conduct in rl vs. sl is still a pretty serious issue.

A friend of mine was telling me about something irritating that happened to him earlier and I kinda need to vent because I'm pretty upset about it too. My friend was working on a house in the usual sandbox he frequents, building the interior stuff, and he got an important phone call from a newer coworker needing help with something at the workplace so he had to step away to take the call. Apparently when he got back he discovered that one of the other people at the sandbox had decided to poke around inside his house because his scripted door says something whenever someone interacts with it. They hung around for like 4 minutes and even went upstairs and moved his avatar from where he was standing. They didn't say anything at all the whole time. I wasn't there and he was on the phone so neither of us have any clue why they were poking around or what the h*** they were doing. He didn't want to rip the script out so he ended up just placing an object over the door to prevent anybody from interacting with it again while he's working. I know it's a public space and a virtual world but that's no reason to throw common courtesy out the window. People should at least ask before wandering around your projects.
Why are there so many short shirts for Kemono?
AngstyJellyfish replied to AngstyJellyfish's topic in Fashion
I'm talking about shirts here, not skirts. Though there are alot of short skirts too...
What mesh bodies do you use?
AngstyJellyfish replied to Tess Falworth's topic in Fashion
I used to use Avatar 2.0. Now I use human Kemono with the M3 Venus head.
mesh bodies
The kemono is pretty nice as far as craftsmanship goes. My friends and I all use it. One of them pointed something out to me the other day that I checked and confirmed. It seems that without properly placed body lights there are weird dark patches on the body. I thought something was wrong with my skin but once the areas were illuminated they were gone and the skin looked how it was supposed to so I guess there's something up with the shading? That's exactly the problem. It's next to impossible to find nice everyday clothing for the kemono body like you can for other avatars. I want to make clothes myself but I can't afford the upload costs for it all. So I just have to comb through marketplace and hope there's something there that's close. It's an anime mesh body with a few anime head options. My friends and I got it because of the more anime look of it at least. Some people use it as a furry avatar. There aren't too many people that actually make clothes for it. Most of what you'll find on marketplace are texture mods for the clothes those few creators make.

I've noticed a frustrating trend trying to shop for shirts for utilizator's kemono. The overwhelming majority of the shirts are really short or if they're not then they're really bulky. Why is it so hard to find longer shirts? Even the v neck t-shirt looks like it's short enough to expose skin if you moved the wrong way, if it were a real shirt. The oversized hoodie is nice, it's cute, but it's just too bulky for me. I've got the lazy long sleeve shirt and it's a good length on one side but that's really the only one so far. So, what is it will the short shirt trend? Are the longer shirts just hiding or just not on marketplace or something?
Turning a normal sized avatar petite?
AngstyJellyfish posted a question in Avatar
Is there a way to turn a normal sized avatar into a petite avatar? I have a normal sized avatar with a mesh body that i like that adjusts with the shape sliders. I want a petite avatar version of my current avatar, but my mesh body doesn't come in petite and i don't really like any of the petite avatars available. Is there a way to shrink down my shape further or some other way to achieve a petite avatar from an existing avatar?
Attachment for walking on walls?
AngstyJellyfish replied to AngstyJellyfish's question in Creation
Are you sure that's the only option? if the flight feather is open source would modifying it work? It seems like lots for something that seems like it should be simple.
What you're describing at the end there is essentially what the raycaster does. It is pretty much a vehicle. You rez the object with the script and sit on it. It being a "vehicle" creates lots of limitations though, which is why I am asking for a script for an avatar attachment instead.
I'm looking for a script, not a device or hud. I want to make the object myself and have it be an attachment to the avatar. It also needs to work automatically instead of being turned off and on like that device and not require special buttons for up and down. Essentially, when the avatar walks towards the wall they should just start walking up the wall when they reach it instead of being stopped by it. The raycasting script is great and does just that, but it requires the object it is placed in to be rezzed and sat on and doesn't function when attached to the avatar like I need it to.

The story of female aviation started in about the same time as the male aviation. We see that out dream of flying was reached only in the late 19th century. The first pilots were using some very primitive and unsafe planes, but this didn't stop the brave ladies from getting in this filed. We have countless examples of women that decided to break all the stereotypes regarding the role of women in the society and decided to become pilots. Some of the best examples are Baroness de Laroche and Bessie Coleman. These ladies were pioneers in the aviation field and major supporters of the feminist movement. But many people contested the role of women in aviation over time. We have listed some of the ways ladies help our common good while on the plane.
Female sailors from Patrol Squadron 40 (from left) Petty Officer 3rd Class Jelinda Hill, Lt. J.G. Brianne Law, Airman Alyssa Perea, Petty Officer 2nd Class Rachel Fontaine.
The flight schools were dominated by men for a very long time. The first female pilots managed to enter this field by fighting tremendously with all the stereotypes. For a long time, women were prohibited from becoming pilots because they were considered too sensitive and emotional for the harsh conditions in the air. But the recent studies showed that our ancestors were very wrong about this. Nowadays, women and men have equal rights when it comes to the flight school and the later work in the air. In the beginning there were limited spots in the flight schools but thanks to the work of some amazing female pilots and the lobby in the senate this changed.
Women pilots are now very respected in the aviation and they prove day after day that they are just as valuable as their male colleagues. The test proved that they are very skilled as commercial pilots because they are much gentler with landings and take-offs. Thanks to their work the shortage of pilots from the beginning of the 2000's was solved. They proved that odd working hours and the change in hour is not affecting their work quality. This was one of the myths when women entered aviation. The family life may be affected by this, but they proved that they can do both.
In military aviation they proved to be excellent. They are much more vigilant in stressful moments and that they are extremely fast in taking decisions. Also, if the plane must be maneuvered in small areas, they are as natural as birds. They also introduced new techniques in aviation in general. Now, we see that there are many female teachers in the aviation schools and they introduced new learning methods that led to a better collaboration between male and female pilots.
All in all, female pilots are excellent leaders and they are very skilled in teaching others the art of flying. They introduced new aviation protocols that led to better flying conditions for commercial flights and for military missions. These brave ladies are truly our guardians when we are flying.

When – and how – will the world recover?
With Jason Furman, Linda Yueh, Martin Malone, Deirdre Trapp and James Harding
One by one, countries are slowly emerging from their coronavirus nightmare. But how has the world been changed by the crisis?
In the first of a series of four digital discussions looking at life beyond the pandemic, we were delighted to be joined by Jason Furman, Professor of the Practice of Economic Policy at Harvard Kennedy School and former chair of President Obama's Council of Economic Advisers; Linda Yueh, Fellow in Economics at St Edmund Hall, Oxford University and a regular contributor on the BBC; Martin Malone, chief economic adviser at Alphabook; and Deirdre Trapp, a senior partner in Freshfields' antitrust, competition and trade practice. The topic was COVID-19's macroeconomic impact – and here are the highlights from the conversation.
As policy now cautiously shifts from lockdown to reopening, debates over R numbers and ICU beds are being supplemented by broader macroeconomic questions centred on what countries can do to recover from the most violent economic downturn in 300 years.
One thing is clear: economies are facing attacks on multiple fronts. Demand is down because people can't – or won't – spend money. Supply is shot because multiple businesses can't operate. For some companies the problem is a lack of liquidity, while others have found their models rendered unsustainable by the crisis. Taken together, the economic impact of the pandemic may significantly outlast the virus itself.
How will the world respond to this litany of challenges? What shape is a recovery likely to take? Our panel had different ideas but coalesced around the following points.
Many countries will see a sharp drop in output in H1 2020 – which in some places could be as high as 30 per cent of GDP. If the pandemic subsides towards the end of the year, we could see a dramatic bounceback. But this is vulnerable to a second wave of infections.
Once we have hit the bottom, we're likely to see a period of double-digit growth. This, however, will be followed by a third 'slog phase' in order to generate growth over and above where we were before the pandemic began. That might take five years. Globally, the recovery will come in waves, and will vary between countries, regions and industries.
Watch Jason Furman on the post-COVID-19 prospects for the US economy:
Rich countries shouldn't worry about the cost of supporting citizens and businesses through the crisis – at least not in the short term. Debt-to-GDP ratios of 150 per cent or more will become the norm. Having said this, some economies (such as the US) may have to rethink their aversion to taxation as this additional debt will need to be repaid.
Watch Deirdre Trapp on the UK's pandemic planning:
Large-scale insolvencies, however, are trickier to deal with. The scale of long-term damage (in the form of lost productive capacity) caused by COVID-19 could be huge. After all, business can't unliquidate, and it's easier to fire than it is to rehire.
We're probably not going to see inflation any time soon, but if it does materialise it would bring benefits. It would mean lower real interest rates (which would help investment) and lower real wages (which would help with employment), and it would also help deleveraging in government, corporate and household sectors.
Watch Jason Furman on why inflation would be a good thing right now:
Asian countries have generally handled COVID-19 better than the West, thanks partly to their experience with pandemics, but also because they were quicker to implement full-scale suppression tactics. The region is generally ahead of Europe and the US in terms of both technology around – and public appetite for – health- based surveillance, including contact tracing.
Watch Linda Yueh on why Asian countries have fared relatively better in tackling the coronavirus:
Whatever happens, millions of jobs in sectors such as hospitality and tourism are at risk. We'll see a lot fewer of some things, like restaurants, and a lot more of others, like deliveries. Socially, the pandemic will challenge a capitalist model already under pressure from populism and years of austerity.
Amid the gloom there is cause for optimism – at least among investors. The rate of healthcare innovation is running 10 times higher than at any point in history, and unprecedented collaboration between biotech and pharma has made massive manufacturing capacity available to roll out potential therapies and vaccines. Monetary and fiscal interventions go well beyond the impact of COVID-19 on advanced economies. Some analysts are surprisingly bullish on the outlook for markets. Let's hope they're right.
Watch Martin Malone on why he's bullish about the macro outlook:

Explained: What does an early F1 factory shutdown mean for the teams?
F1 Correspondent & Presenter
Lawrence Barretto
The summer shutdown has become the spring shutdown with news that F1, the FIA and all 10 teams have agreed to bring it forward in order to free up space in August to squeeze in rescheduled Grands Prix – but what impact will this have?
READ MORE: F1 summer shutdown brought forward in response to coronavirus outbreak
What is the shutdown?
The Sporting Regulations dictate all teams must observe a mandatory two-week factory shutdown in August, which is around the midpoint of the campaign.
It was introduced for two reasons. The first was to save costs, as facilities such as the teams' windtunnels – which are costly to run - must be turned off. The second was to give the teams' personnel some much needed time off to spend time with their families and recharge ahead of the demanding end to the season.
Does shutdown actually mean shutdown?
Almost. Head into a factory during shutdown and it'll feel like a ghost town. Any work related to the performance of the race car is banned.
That means the departments such as design, research and development, production and build must down tools. This includes not looking at emails or discussing technical aspects on the phone/over messages.

With teams working relentlessly for 50 weeks of the year, these 14 days can be likened to a ceasefire of sorts.
However, the factories aren't completely empty. Marketing, finance and legal teams will continue working, as they don't have a direct impact on performance.
It's also an opportunity for teams to carry out maintenance on areas such as the windtunnel or for IT to use the time to put in a new network as disruption will be minimal.
What does an early shutdown mean for the teams?
Teams will have to revise their development plans. At this time of year, development would be aggressive as they look to finalise their final upgrade packages (there's a long lag between concept and bolting on the car).
This year, it was set to have been even more aggressive with teams keen to get their 2020 development done as soon as possible so they could switch resource and focus to next season's car, which will be subject to dramatically different technical regulations.
READ MORE: Ferrari suspend production at Formula 1 factory amid coronavirus spread
As they are now required to stop work for three weeks at some point before the end of April, teams will need to revise deadlines and targets, while preparing for the prospect of a delayed F1 season which will be compressed and no longer feature a mid-season break.
An earlier shutdown will help teams reduce their overheads during this lean period, as the factory will not be running – providing some respite.
And what about the impact on F1 team personnel?
They will be required to use a chunk of their annual leave allocation earlier than expected. It also means they will have to reschedule any summer holidays they had planned with their families.
A small consolation is the timing of the new window means the shutdown at least falls within the Easter school holidays.
Teams will evaluate ways of working, including rotation of staff, when the season does get back under way, as team members are facing a hectic schedule over seven months.
Will the racing be affected?
It's hard to tell, but ultimately – the teams who are able to adapt best to the unusual situation will be the ones who will see the gains and the results on the track.
Naturally, the better resourced teams – both in terms of finances and scale of staff – have a greater capacity to adjust, while the smaller teams will have to make compromises.
It's likely we'll only know the true answer come the latter part of the season when the teams will have to keep pushing, without having had a couple of weeks of downtime to recharge before the race to the finish.

Here are three (or rather four) different races for a version of Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition based in Welsh folklore. Though these are the most obvious ones, other races could be selected as well with the DM's will. For example, the triton from Volo's Guide to Monsters could work well as merfolk and the shifter from the D&D website could be a good fit for werewolves and even Saxon werebears and strange Annwn wereboars.
Before humans ruled, Britain and Ireland belonged to the giants. Then the Picts came, but these folk saw the wisdom with allying with the lords of the land. Even marriages were made, with giant chieftains taking Pictish brides and Pictish chieftains taking giant brides. Then Brutus the Trojan brought his people to the island and warred against giants and Picts alike until he conquered the giant king Albion and claimed the island for his people – who became known as the "Brythons" in his honour. However, there are still giants in Britain – especially in the far north above Hadrian's Wall. Most despise the Brythons, though are content to be left alone in the wild places. Still, some do make they wrath known.
And then there are the half-giants.
Though many half-giants are the product of a human and a giant parent, the bloodlines of Picts and giants have been so intermingled that it is not uncommon for a half-giant to have two Pictish parents or two giant ones. Though much shorter than regular giants, half-giants are still tall, imposing figures with powerful bodies and long limbs. Their hair and eyes can be a variety of colours, but are most often black or dark brown. Though not as prone to mutation as regular giants, some are still born with a single eye or leg, huge tusks, or unusual coloration. They often dress like the community they're trying to fit in with – like a giant when with giants, like a Pict when with Picts.
There are not enough half-giants to form their own communities, so if they wish the company of others, they must associate with either giants or humans. In some tribes they are welcomed, though in others they face derision – this is especially true among giants, who value physical strength so highly. Scornful giants call them "half-breeds" or "runts." They frequently receive more respect among Picts – Caw, one of the greatest Pictish kings, was a half-giant. It is often easier to be perceived as an unusually large, powerful human than an unusually small, weak giant. Occasionally a half-giant gets raised by humans who are not Picts – for example, King Arthur's wife Gwenhuvar was raised a Brython by Lord Cador despite being the daughter of Ogrfran the Giant.
Like many giants, many half-giants become hermits. In some ways they can do it far more effectively, for the smaller half-giants can disappear into the wilderness much better than their larger cousins can. They adapt well to heights and the cold, and so are most often found in mountain ranges, though they also make their homes in dense forests and hidden valleys.
Barbarian is by far the most common character class for half-giants, as it is not only common in giant and Pictish cultures, but also gives them useful wilderness survival skills and voice to the rage and frustration that often dwells within them. Certain half-giants who develop a more spiritual approach to the natural world may become rangers instead; these often befriend creatures of great physical power: boars, bears, and giant serpents. Not surprisingly, an unusually large proportion of giant-soul sorcerers are half-giants. Druids and warlocks are not uncommon either. The druids will often be shamans in the Pictish tradition that follow the Circle of the Shepherd, but mountain or forest Circle of the Land are frequent too. Warlocks will usually have pacts with the Archfey or the Undying (spirits of dead giants and Picts). Other character classes are rare and often involve contact with other cultures.
Half-giants share a number of traits in common with each other.
Giant: Half-giants are giants not humanoids.
Age. Though not as long-lived as many other giants, half-giants can still live longer than humans. They reach maturity at 15 and often live to at least 200 years.
Alignment. Their raging spirits and solitary natures means that most half-giants tend more towards chaos than law. Chaotic evil half-giants are pitiless raiders who attack others to get what they want, whereas chaotic neutral ones are usually either solitary recluses or wanderers. However the more tranquil hermits among them are often true neutral.
Size. "Runts" compared to regular giants, half-giants are generally between 7 and 9 feet tall and weigh between 280 and 400 pounds. However, certain ones (such as Queen Gwenhuvar) are even shorter, perhaps a mere 6 feet tall. Your size is Medium.
Long-Limbed. When you make a melee attack on your turn, your reach for it is 5 feet greater than normal.
Mountain Born. You're acclimated to high altitude, including elevations above 20,000 feet. You're also naturally adapted to cold climates, as described in chapter 5 of the Dungeon Master's Guide.
Languages. You can speak, read, and write either Brythonic and Giant or Brythonic and Pict (depending upon which culture you were raised in). Many learn both Pict and Giant.
There exists a world beside the moral one, a world often reached through mysterious mist and hollow hills, across the ocean and deep under the earth. This world is Annwn, the Otherworld. It is not above Earth like Heaven or below it like Hell – it is beside it and through it. It is the realm of the fey.
The lords of Annwn find the words "fey" and "fairy" offensive (as well as the Saxon term "elf"), so various euphemisms are used instead: the Good Neighbours, the Fair Folk, the Shining Ones, the Lords and the Ladies, or most commonly the Tylwyth Teg – the "Beautiful Family." Their term for themselves is the "Ellylon." They are often curious about humans, and so cross-over to the mortal to visit them, while others prefer instead to draw mortals into their own world.
Ellylon appear as tall, lithe humanoids of unearthly beauty. In their natural form, their hair is always yellow (though depending on the ellylon, it may be a shining gold, the rich colour of wheat, or a paler platinum) and their eyes are hypnotic and golden. Their skin is pale, often almost white, and their features are angular and pointed, including their ears. Ellylon clothes are usually rich and elegant, coloured white and gold. However, they all possess the power to appear perfectly human, and often will wander among mortals in that form.
As befits many of their titles, the ellylon are the lords of the fey. Their mightiest include Arawn, Gwyn ap Nudd, Morgen and her sisters, and other rulers of Annwn. Lesser ellylon are the courtiers, warriors, and hunters of the courts, following the dictates of their masters. They are known for their whimsy and for their pride, for most ellylon consider other beings – giants, humans, goblins – to be their clear inferiors. Many grow bored of the Otherworld, and seek to enter the mortal plane for sport. Most will only engage in brief sojourns but some choose to remain among humanity. These are usually the least influential ellylon, who believe they will be prominent among mortals than among other fey.
Ellylon are masters of magic, and produce many powerful fey-born sorcerers, fey-pact warlocks, and bards of all sorts. Those more martially inclined are generally ancient-oathed paladins or rangers, or fighters that become arcane archers or eldritch knights. However, they are ruled by whim, and could end up taking on almost any class. However, no ellylon can become a mystic or a devoted-0athed paladin. They do not have souls as mortals do and cannot comprehend the ways of God.
Ellylon share a number of traits in common with each other.
Ability Score Increase. Your Charisma score increases by 2, and your Dexterity score increases by 1.
Fey: Ellyllon are fey not humanoids.
Age. Ellyllon reach physical maturity at the about the same age as humans. As fey, they will never get old or die of old age. An ellyllon 1000 years old is just as healthy as she was at 20.
Alignment. The lords of the fey have little concept of good and evil and their moods can be as changeable as a breeze, compassionate at one moment and cruelly vengeful the next. Most are chaotic neutral and they are almost never lawful.
Size. Ellyllon are tall, usually from under 6 to over 7 feet, and with slender builds. Your size is Medium.
Darkvision. Accustomed to twilit forests and the night sky, you have superior vision in dark and dim conditions. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light.
Unnatural Beauty. You have proficiency in the Persuasion skill. Whenever you make a Charisma (Persuasion) check that takes particular advantage of your physical attractiveness, add double your proficiency bonus to the check instead of your normal proficiency bonus. Though you always possess the Persuasion skill no matter what form you take, the second option can only be employed in your natural ellyllon form.
Human Form. You can at will change your form to appear human. Whenever you use this ability, you take the same unique human form – it resembles you though with all fey traits replaced by human ones and your beauty is no longer unnatural (though still striking). The only thing that you can vary when you transform is your coloration – eye, hair, and skin colour. You can stay in your human form as much as you wish, but it is a magical transformation, and so is affected by dispel magic and similar effects.
Age Immunity. You are immune to any aging magic.
Cantrips. You know two cantrips of your choice from the bard and/or warlock spell lists, as well as the cantrip Otherworldly Door. Charisma is your spellcasting ability for them.
Languages. You can speak, read, and write Brythonic and Annwn.
While the ellylon rule and hunt, the goblins serve. By far the most populous kind of fey, they perform all the various tasks that the Fair Folk consider too degrading or dull to perform. The two most prominent kinds are the hearth goblins ("booka") and the mine goblins ("coblynau").
In appearance, the goblins are the opposite of the ellylon. Instead of being tall and graceful, they are short and awkward. Instead of being inhumanly beautiful, they are inhumanly ugly. Their faces are wide, their mouths huge, their voices high-pitched, their eyes large and goggling. They look like caricatures of humanity, and even though they are actually very dexterous, when they move it often seems animalistic, like a scurrying rat or lopping rabbit. Some have animal features, such as horns, fangs, or tails. Their behaviour is generally blunt and unsophisticated, with a strong liking for practical jokes.
Many goblins seek self-expression through their costumes, wearing garish outfits that combine particular clashing styles. Those who live around mortals will frequently combine the looks of those individuals they admire.
In Annwn, the goblins are menial servants. Booka are house servants – maids, butlers, cooks – while coblynau are miners. Many are content to serve their ellylon masters, but others flee to the mortal realm. After all, though their magic is considered insignificant in the Otherworld, it can produce respect and fear among mortals.
Goblins in the mortal realm generally fall into one of fours categories. There are goblins being sent on missions by their fey masters. There are those (especially booka) who seek to serve humans as they did ellylon, believing that these masters will give them more respect. There are those who instead toy with mortals for their own amusement, playing tricks on them. And there are those goblins that instead strive to be treated as equals, such as the warrior-bard Eiddilig, who joined King Arthur's court.
Goblins favour classes that reward stealth and cunning. They are frequently rogues and bards, and sometimes rangers or fey-pact warlocks. Though in theory they could be almost any other class, they cannot be mystics or devoted-oathed paladins. Like all fey, they cannot channel the power of God.
Goblins share a number of traits in common with each other.
Fey. Goblins are fey not humanoids.
Age. Goblins reach maturity surprisingly early, often at 10. As fey, they never die of old age. Very old goblins (such as 500 or 600 years) will often be very wrinkled and wizened, but they are still just as healthy as they ever were.
Alignment. Goblins are often less whimsical than ellyllon and can be neutral as often as chaotic neutral. Those who travel to the mortal realm frequently form a bond with humans, either helping them in the home (for booka) or in the mines (for coblynau) – these goblins are most often neutral good. However, others realize they can toy with humans like the ellyllon toy with them, becoming chaotic neutral or even chaotic evil.
Size. Goblins are between 3 and 4 feet tall and average around 40 pounds. Your size is Small.
Naturally Stealthy. You have proficiency in the Stealth skill.
Subraces. Two subraces exist: booka (hearth goblins) and coblynau (mine goblins).
Cantrips. You know the Mending and Otherworldly Door cantrips. Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for them.
Dark Vision. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light.
Tool Proficiency. You gain proficiency with two artisan's tools of your choice: brewer's, carpenter's, cobbler's, or cook's. If you then acquire one of these proficiencies a second time (such as through a background), add double your proficiency bonus to the check.
Speak with Small Beasts. Through sounds and gestures, you can communicate simple ideas with Small or smaller beasts.
Cantrips. You know the Mold Earth and Otherworldly Door cantrips. Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for them.
Superior Dark Vision. You can see in dim light within 120 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light.
Tool Proficiency. You gain proficiency with mason's tools. If you then acquire this proficiency again (such as through a background), add double your proficiency bonus to the check.
Depending upon their demon sire, the exact nature of the half-demon varies. You can use any of the tiefling variants from Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes.
All half-demons are proficient with the disguise kit.
Half-demons look much more human than conventional tieflings, and will generally only have one or two demonic traits that can be hidden with a successful disguise kit proficiency roll. Such traits might include small horns, reddish skin, pointed ears, fangs, a forked tongue, or other small yet disquieting features.

Q: What are benefits of standalone ActionCable server? Rails guide describes the opportunity to run ActionCable standalone server with regular Rails app. But I want to understand the benefits of such approach in context of running Rails app in docker containers. Why it may be useful for scaling for example?

A: The main benefit is separation of concerns and redundancy. Having a standalone ActionCable server allows you to scale that completely independently of your Rails server.
For example, let's you have a memory-leak issue in your ActionCable code and it is deployed in the same container as the Rails server. It will eventually bring the whole application down. If it is separated though, the Rails server will still be running while you can fix the memory issue and redeploy the ActionCable server.
It's better to think of the ActionCable server as a WebSocket server, as that's what it really is. In theory this separation of concerns allows you to relatively quickly change the framework for your WebSocket server, maybe something written in Go. In reality though ActionCable is heavily integrated with Rails code so it's not that straight-forward, but that is one of the main ideas behind it.
In terms of redundancy, let's say you get 10x the amount of HTTP requests compared to WS requests (even though they are not exactly comparable). If the server is separated in a container, we might not want to scale the web Rails server and ActionCable server at the same rate. This allows us to let's say have 6 containers of Rails servers, while only 2 containers of ActionCable servers, thus saving you resources.

Zechariah 5:10 "Where are they taking the basket?" I asked the angel who was speaking with me.
"Where are they taking the basket?" I asked the angel.
"Where are they taking the basket?" I asked the angel who was speaking with me.
I said to the angel who was speaking with me, "Where are they taking the ephah?"
So I asked the angel who was speaking with me, "Where are they taking the basket?"
and I asked the angel, "Where are they taking the basket?"
I asked the angel, "Where are they taking it?"
So I asked the angel who was speaking with me, "Where are they taking the basket?""
So I asked the angel who was talking to me, "Where are they taking the basket?"
I asked the messenger who was speaking to me, "Where are they taking the basket?"
Then said I to the angel who talked with me, "Where are these carrying the ephah basket?"
I asked the angel who was speaking with me, "Where are they taking the basket?"
Then I said to the angel that talked with me, Where do these bear the ephah?
Then said I to the angel that talked with me, where do these take the basket?
Then said I to the angel that talked with me, Where do these bear the ephah?
And I said to the angel that spoke with me, Whither do these carry away the measure?
And I said to the angel that spoke in me: Whither do these carry the vessel?
Then I said to the angel who talked with me, "Where are these carrying the ephah basket?"
Then I lifted up my eyes and saw two women approaching, with the wind in their wings. Their wings were like those of a stork, and they lifted up the basket between heaven and earth.
"To build a house for it in the land of Shinar," he told me. "And when it is ready, the basket will be set there on its pedestal."


Salma Hayek's husband François-Henri Pinault has pledged over €100 million to help rebuild the Notre Dame Cathedral after it caught fire.
The 56-year-old businessman – who has 11-year-old Valentina with Salma, whom he has been married to since 2009 – made the pledge alongside his father, François Pinault, after the historical cathedral in Paris, France, went up in flames on Monday (15.04.19) evening, consuming the roof and causing its towering spire to collapse.
In a statement obtained by French newspaper Le Figaro, the Kering CEO – who controls a number of businesses including Gucci, Alexander McQueen, Stella McCartney, Saint Laurent, and Balenciaga – said: "My father and myself have decided to release a sum of €100 million from our Artemis funds [the family holding company] to participate in the effort that will be necessary for the complete reconstruction of Notre Dame."
François-Henri's donation comes as 'Frida' actress Salma, 52, took to Instagram on Monday to share an image of the burning iconic landmark, and shared her sadness with her followers.
She wrote: "As many others I'm in deep shock and sadness to witness the beauty of Notre-Dame turn into smoke. I love you Paris. #notredame #paris. (sic)"
The message was then repeated in French.
Salma and her spouse have a residence near the cathedral and were married in Paris on Valentines Day, February 14, in 2009 at the City Hall of the Sixth Arrondissement, which is less than a mile away from the historic church.
Meanwhile, a public fundraising drive for restorations to the building has been announced and will open on Tuesday (16.04.19), following a speech by French President Emmanuel Macron in which he confirmed the cathedral would be rebuilt.
He said: "The worst has been avoided, but the battle isn't fully won yet. It is with pride I tell you tonight we will rebuild this cathedral . . . we will rebuild Notre Dame because it is what the French expect of us, it is what our history deserves, it is, in the deepest sense, our destiny."

Key Numbers for Property: WA State Budget 2017-18
Budgets are more than numbers. They are a statement of what a Government values given scarce resources.
On the 7 September, Treasurer Ben Wyatt delivered the first State Budget of the McGowan Labour Government. This Budget, delivered to fix WA's "catastrophic financial situation" according to the Premier, sought to incorporate election commitments, while outlining a timetable for Budget recovery.
If the Budget could be summarised into a single word, the word would be 'restraint'.
Restraint in terms of revenue raising measures (increases to Payroll Tax and Gold Royalties) despite the lower population ABS led $2 billion drop in GST revenue. Rumoured increases to other royalties, property taxes and levies such as the Perth Parking Levy, failed to materialise.
Restraint in terms that these measures focused more on the corporate and public sectors than households. In playing to the voters who elected them, tax increases on those seen to have the ability to pay, seem to be campaign material for their re-election. While tough decisions to an extent have been made, difficult decisions such as the sale of Government utilities, PPP's and others have been pushed down the line. The closer to an election these decisions are made the more likely they are to be pushed to a second term of a McGowan/Wyatt government.
Restraint in terms of public sector spending. A significant proportion of the Budget is recurrent funding to nurses, teachers and police. Being from a family with three immediate family members working in these professions, there is an appreciation that there will never be enough money to reimburse these professions for their service. At the same time, a smaller public service with more accountable deliverables, is key to rebalancing the Budget. For the property industry the loss of 3,000 public servants will have a negative impact on office demand from the State's largest office occupier.
While the Treasurer committed to "work overtime to ensure that the burden of fiscal repair is shared as fairly as possible across the community", in cases such as Royalty for Regions, the Perth Parking Levy, Payroll Tax, it is clear that the burden is being shifted to a targeted few. More special purposes accounts are being created/used to replace funding previously derived from general revenue. Without top up funding from the Federal Government, which the Treasurer himself described as "ad-hoc" and "a drop in the ocean", it is likely that a higher burden will be passed onto narrower sections of the community.
Below are a selection of key numbers from the State Budget for the WA property industry.
$10.3 billion – the forecast decrease in business investment
$1.8 billion – the forecast drop in royalty income (down $1.8 billion), due to lower iron ore prices and a higher $AU dollar
$1.2 billion – the infrastructure funding allocated to METRONET stage 1 over the next 3 years.
$861 million – the amount of Royalty for Regions funding being used to fund regional projects previously funded out of general revenue.
$435 million – the amount expected to be raised through the higher Payroll Tax rate. 20% of this increase will be funded from the three large iron ore miners. If we were going to target these companies, wouldn't Brendon Grylls' proposal have raised more income?
$328 million – the seed funding for the establishment of a Debt Repayment Account. Any windfall amounts, likely stamp duty revenue from large commercial property sales, will be placed in this account to pay down debt and not to add to general revenue.
$248 million – the missed revenue from lower commercial property transactions in 2016/17.
$143.2 million – the amount invested in the Economic and Employment Land program.
$127 million – the forecast impact on net debt savings from lower office space requirements and lease renegotiations for Government office accommodation combined with changes to the State Fleet policy and procurement settings.
$104.8 million – amount of Metronet funding from value capture and land sales. The Planning Minister, in an address to the Planning Institute, stated that value capture measures would account for 20-30% of funding. It is likely that $70-80 million dollars of Government land will be brought to the market in the next 5 years. Will there be demand at the prices the land is likely to be sold at?
$67.8 million – funding for the new inner city school in Subiaco. This is approx. $10 million more than the cost to convert a vacant CBD office building for a school. Given the level of vacancy and the impact on bringing families back into the CBD, this is a missed opportunity.
09 million – the number of people who used the free transit zone/CAT Bus in the Perth CBD at a cost of $15.3 million, paid for by the Perth Parking Levy. The usage of this service is forecast to drop by 2.9%, highlighting fewer office workers in the Perth CBD and West Perth.
20,000 jobs – the forecast growth in employment in WA. Which sectors will underpin this result? Technology, medical, education?
3,000 employees – the forecast drop in the size of the public service. Based on the outlined workspace ratio for State Government tenancies, this will reduce office demand by 15,000 sq m. Combined with relocating 30,000 sq m out of the Perth CBD over the next three years, the reduced space requirement of the State Government will offset leasing demands made across 2017.
4% – rate of the Foreign Owner Duty Surcharge to apply in 2019. Forecast to raise $49 million. Is this minimal amount worth the message it sends to international investors that Perth isn't open for their business? International investors play a key role in apartment pre-sales.
3% – forecast growth of Gross State Product, up from 0.25% in 2016/17. The worst of times are over according to the Treasury. After 5 years of a domestic recession, the State is growing again after the end of the mining construction boom.
6% – the decrease in public transport use in the current financial year. This is after a 3% reduction in 2016/17.
0 – the amount allocated over the forward estimates for the formation of Infrastructure WA and the development of a State Infrastructure Strategy.
0 – No increase in Land Tax in 2017/18. Given forecast lower valuations, many taxpayers will pay less this financial year. Due to past increases, property taxes were kept at current high levels. Given the deficit, isn't the most likely movement in these taxes up in next year's Budget not down?

The Department is charged with the responsibility of assisting in the improvement of Salem's natural and built environments. This is achieved through the Department's involvement in most major public and private development projects during the City's development review processes, long-range planning, and economic development activities.
In March the City of Salem unveiled their "LOVE" sign. Made by the Streets Department the sign has been a way to spread the love through the city. Last week, Snyder's Nursing Home brought us a replica of the "LOVE" sign their residents made.


General Objective: To study and explore approaches of integrating location-specific weather/climate forecast into herders' livelihoods adaptation and resilience practices and strategies.
1. To identify the needs of local users (herders and local government agencies), for local weather/climate forecast information and the available information communication channels that can be used for receiving and transmitting, this information.
3. To test and evaluate use of the system in community-based climate risk management practices.
Abstract: This research subproject will study approaches of integrating location-specific weather information into herders' livelihood adaptation and resilience activities and strategies. It will accomplish this by designing the system in a participatory way with the herders, to providing useful and location-specific weather forecast information to enhance the forecast model of the Regional Integrated Multi-Hazard Early Warning System for Africa and Asia (RIMES) and the National Agency for Meteorology, Hydrology and Environment Monitoring (NAMHEM). Using ICTs, it will disseminate timely the integrated forecast information and receive herder feedback/observation; and integrate forecast information into local livelihoods improvement practices. Potential outcomes are a strengthening of Mongolian herders' disaster preparedness capacity leading to reduced losses and improved adaptation and resilience of both individual herder families and herder communities.
Key researchers include staff from Jasil, NAMHEM, RIMES, sum governors and sum-level com-management teams, sum-level herder associations, and herders and their communities. For the field research, we will also involve students and teachers from the National University of Mongolia, Mongolia State Agricultural University, and EcoAsia Institute.
The subproject will build on the IDRC- supported research, known as the Collaborative Learning for the Co-Management of Natural Resources or CLCMNR project.
Moreover kids' watches are available Rolex Replica Watches repercussion the build of their favorite travesty characters analogous over batman, superman replica watches sale or spiderman.


We all need a roof over our heads, and for many refugees that roof has been elusive. Even after arrival in Ottawa, finding affordable shelter is a challenge.
Ottawa has a severe shortage of housing that is affordable, leaving more people — including refugees — at risk of homelessness every passing month. Refugee 613 works with housing advocates, settlement agencies, private landlords, housing co-ops, the City of Ottawa and other partners on its Housing Task Force, to support refugees in finding and keeping a place to call home.
If you have a vacant apartment or house you would like to open to refugee tenants, please email info@refugee613.ca and include the rental size and location. We will then connect you to our partners in the housing sector, who may be able to support you in finding a good match. Please remember that most refugees will only be able to afford rents at the low end of the market. Housing is the single greatest support you can offer a recent arrival, but do not upload your offer unless you are prepared to be flexible in the rent.
If you have other questions about housing for refugees, email info@refugee613.ca and our volunteers will connect you to the right experts.
Do refugees receive help to find housing?
Housing workers at settlement agencies help all refugees, including claimants, find places to rent. Private sponsors are obliged to have a home ready for the newcomers they are sponsoring. Some agencies also provide support to people at risk of homelessness, helping them to stay in their homes longer.
Is there enough affordable housing for everyone in Ottawa?
No. There is a serious shortage of housing that is affordable to anyone living in Ottawa on a low income, including Ontario Works or minimum-wage jobs.
Will refugees jump ahead of others in the wait for social housing?
No. Refugees are not allowed to apply for social housing until they have been in Canada for one year. After that, they will be eligible to apply to be placed on the waiting list, like anyone else. There are currently several thousand names on the waiting list for social housing in Ottawa.
As a landlord, I'm nervous about renting to refugees. What support is available?
Many government-assisted refugees and refugee claimants have the services of a housing worker who can provide support to both you and the newcomer, including access to interpreters and help to resolve any problems that might arise. Private sponsors can also help you to develop and maintain a good relationship with your new tenant.
Government-assisted refugees have the services of a housing officer at one of the settlement agencies, who can also provide support to both you and the newcomer, including access to interpreters to help clarify information and help resolve any problems that might arise.
Contact info@refugee613.ca if you have more questions about support for landlords renting to refugees.
