Dogwalkers Rebrand
Finalist in Brand Redesign
In 2018, GTI's brand team kicked-off a comprehensive rebrand initiative for the Dogwalkers logo, packaging and visual ID. The key drivers behind this project were as follows:
To better reflect our commitment to crafting high-quality pre-rolls, while acknowledging the rich history of this authentic and timeless cannabis product category.
To stand out from the pack as the brand expands to additional, highly-competitive markets.
To create a universal package with the proper compliant components in the complex regulatory environment, to allow allow the brand to seamlessly scale as GTI's market presence expands across the country.
To create an emotional connection and nostalgic experience with a consumer base that recognizes pre-rolls as a cannabis staple.
To showcase our love for the animal community and communicate our financial support for deserving animal shelters.
To better communicate our origin story.
The standard approach for pre-roll manufacturers is to use what's called the shake or trim portion of the cannabis flower. These are portions of the plant that are cut away from the more valuable bud or flowering portion. Dogwalkers on the other hand, has always allocated premium, popcorn-sized buds for pre-rolls. Not to mention, each pre-roll is hand-packed by a skilled artisan. With this in mind, the brand team initiated a complete audit of the previous packaging suite and came to the conclusion that, although fun and eye-catching, the aesthetic did not fully highlight the brand's value points to our consumers. This was the impetus behind why, in 2019, the Dogwalkers brand underwent a comprehensive rebrand to elevate the packaging, logos, and communication pillars to further establish the brand as a premium leader in the cannabis and CPG space
To start, the team initiated a thorough analysis of the pre-roll category. This was done by reaching out to patient care specialists (PCSs) throughout Illinois to see what elements the brand had been missing. It turned out, that the pre-roll category as a whole carries vintage and ritual elements that aren't shared by other cannabis product categories, like edibles or vapes. In addition to premium quality, GTI wanted to communicate that vintage, timeless, and classic aesthetic one might notice in other established product categories, like high-end whiskey products.
Given the fragmented, state-by-state nature of cannabis regulation, GTI and Dogwalkers wanted to create a universal container design that would scale into new markets and allow for bulk ordering. A new package design had to be something that would be compliant in as many states as possible, so the full packaged component is flexible enough to enter into new markets as GTI's footprint expands.
With the two high-level north stars determined, the GTI brand team partnered with botique marketing agency, High Dive, to develop the new design and packaging structures. From a design standpoint, we arrived at an all-new color scheme for the brand. It relies on deep forest green and aged metallic gold colors reminiscent of the classic Gilded-Age pairing of gold and green felt. The aim was to convey a vintage motif and to suggest timelessness and ritual.
In regards to the updated packaging structure, we knew we had created equity in the altoids-like tin that was used in the previous branding, so we updated the look to match the new-found design. We also elevated the branding by implementing embossed elements as well as a pre-printed origin story that alludes to Dogwalkers' donation partnerships. New to this version of the pack, the tin carries a paperboard insert folded into a five-pocket chevron pattern. This serves to provide each of the five pre-rolls a designated spot, and ensure the final presentation to the consumer is clean. Finally, we arrived at a custom child-resistant carton, with branding elements in the required tamper labels that tied our SKU categorization of "Sit", "Stay" and "Play" back to the three main cannabis cultivars.
Ultimately, our rebranded design and packaging structure allowed us to premiumize the product portfolio in retail, guarantee our supply chain organization could flexibly move packaging from market to market (due to the universal and market agnostic structure of the carton and tin), and ensure that Dogwalkers would fit the complex regulatory requirments, as GTI continues to expand into new, nuanced, markets.
When compared to 2018, Dogwalkers revenue in 2019 more than doubled, with the highest volume months occuring in markets post-rebrand. Obviously, this point strongly supports the overall success the rebrand acheived through consumer trial, retention and loyalty.
2019 was the first year that the prestigious Clio Awards accepted submissions from the cannabis space, expanding on Clio's reputation for establishing best-in-class programs that honor creative ideas in a variety of specialized verticals. Through the rebrand, Dogwalkers was recognized in the inaugural cannabis edition, winning the Silver Award for the Brand Design in Packaging category.

Re: "why incense can do this" in your post 536. In addition to answers already mentioned above, I would add that I have sensed incense can somewhat infuse its smoke into objects. Its aroma and nature-soaked dense, aromatic frequency begin to become absorbed into the objects exposed as they gradually become �gcured�h or smoked, and this probably affects the nature of their fluidal forces, assisting them to become more nature-balanced if they have become unnaturally balanced due to negative exposure. It would seem a given that due to the dense structure of many of the objects that those above mentioned "daily�h applications would be most beneficial, if not necessary.
Yes, I think sage too, thanks, Linda. I have met at least one Indian shaman who used sage for similar cleansing processes, and I�fm sure many Americans (both native and modern) in the SW States and elsewhere are also familiar with this.
So does that mean that one does not have to continuously keep burning incense sticks all day to neutralize negative fluidal forces from a house? One stick a day enough? This is why I was concerned about burning sticks all day and having to inhale all that smoke.
Well, this is just my opinion, but presumably the more incense or nature-smoke (if I can call it that) per day would probably be quicker and more effective, but, of course, we have to take our human condition into account. Some people will much less tolerate the smoke than others. I, for example, have an allergy to smoke. So I would burn the incense whenever I'm not there, and take care to see that the ash would fall into a safe container or dish. Falling ash can burn or scorch plastic tops or vinyl coverings (something I have experienced), and that could potentially be dangerous if no one is around to watch it. So taking the usual precautions would apply.
A colleague once left a fragrant candle burning on top of his TV before a friendly get together, and went out. Upon returning, his room was full of highly toxic smoke because the candle had burnt down to the plastic TV which had then started to melt. He caught it before a fire broke out, but it was pretty scary, and the get together was cancelled due to the acrid toxic smoke which took hours to fully clear out.
Incense would be safer, but I have experienced slightly melted plastic table or shelf top covers from incense ash that somehow flew aside.
Also, you might check the incense is NOT set over a ceiling smoke detector. Smoke detectors are increasingly installed as popular home safety devices and one going off could cause an inconvenient disturbance.
I am wondering , does tobacco smoke have same effect on the room as incense does?! I think that incense have more harmonizing effect than tobacco have.
Certain plants such as herbs, do contain certain phytonutrients and other factors that surely benefit the air around us and our health.
But as I have come to realize, the clearing of negative fluidal forces through the use of plants has more to do with the creational recommendation that teaches that we use the might and power of our Consciousness for good, virtuous and useful purposes and reasons.
Through correct knowledge, one realizes the construct of the consciousness, the psyche and our fluidal forces (swinging waves) ...as it is explained in the Goblet Of The Truth.
So through this process we can confirm these facts and reality and begin to learn from that which is within us, referring to the consciousness, the psyche and fluidal forces (swinging waves).
Interestingly, it appears that a principle of the We-Form is inherent and is taught through the ability to channel the abilities of the consciousness and concentrate its power when we use another creation of the Creation such as plants and so on to clear out negative fluidal forces.
So the Might Of The Thoughts can be experienced and thereby harnessed through the use of sage or incense. As it has already been advised above, we should also apply the creational recommendation of modesty. So precautions and moderation in all things is important, as well as the thinking and feeling state of the psyche when burning sage or incense.
I think I will set up a fail safe burn proof area for the incense to burn and will burn it when I am out and when I am sleeping in my bedroom. That should reduce the smoke I have to breath in.
Should people get rid of their OLD clothes, furniture, jewellery, ect, that they had for a long time if they think differently (better) now after finding and studying Meier's spiritual teachings? About 10 years ago I suffered depression for about 3 years, and also my thinking is much better now then what it used to be like for most of my life.
Interesting thought, �Should people get rid of their OLD clothes, furniture, jewellery, ect,�� IMO, if these items continually remind you of difficult times or creates a gridlock/congestion or hindrance/interference of truthful thinking, meditation etc.; then follow your inner creative consciousness on the proper action. From my prospective and experience, the development of spiritual consciousness directly affects �Fluidalforces�, consequently certain items are enhanced so to speak with the higher frequency of Fluidalenergies, overlapping the old. Yes, in my case, there have been some item that were discarded do to energies that were now found offensive, for lack of a better word.
Kenneth, my old favorite clothes I don't wear often but some of my furniture is my main concern. My bed mattress is a couple of years old but the chunky wooden base it sits on I've had for about 20 years. A bed and the close surrounding furniture would surely have lots of my old fluidal forces. I don't know if it is warranted but I think I may change them as I think much better then I used too.
You may want to keep in mind; if you buy used furniture you may be dealing with other persons Fluidalenergies issues? Much of today�s new furniture is made with �Particleboard� (sawdust/woodchips glued together) with toxic chemicals, utilizing plastic laminate or wood veneer which is also glued in place. The outgassing of this type of furniture is unhealthy for all life forms, but it�s very inexpensive to manufacture. New furniture with solid wood is expensive, unless you go with steel bed-frames.
It�s my understanding that Fluidalenergies do not accumulate as well in denser material like steel etc. verses various kinds of wood and other less dense materials?
Kenneth, I always buy new furniture, clothes, ect. About the only thing I buy used are cars and house. Thanks, I will avoid particle board.
Hey you two, this conversation reminds of hearing that one can "clean" things like the "little ones" did at the centre, I presume, and crystals and the like. I vaguely remember one of the Plejaren mentioning this, which makes me want to learn how to do this to the car I bought 2nd hand a year ago and about 8.9billion fellow human beings.
A while ago I was trying to explain the Fluidalforce and associated energies to an interested person. Was thinking to myself, if only there was a short video that could be observed? A few days later, I found these YouTube videos from the FIGU Landesgruppe Canada organization; these videos are only about a year old, it was exactly what I was looking for.
Does anybody know if Billy ever mentioned how to get rid of bad fluidal energy in a room.
My daughter swears that a bedroom of hers has bad energy.
You mentioned, "how to get rid of bad fluidal energy in a room." As you probably know, this could be from someones death in that house or room; there are other issues associated with reincarnation as well.
Nonetheless, as I recall, meditation, good music and the proper incense to name a few will help remove bad Fluidal Energy.
I think it depends in the type of fluidal energy -- its source. From someone who previously lived there, my understanding is that it should dissipate over time. Also/Otherwise a strong neutral positive energy of the new occupants can kind of clean it out by replacing the former fluidal energies with your own or those of the new occupants. Billy has said something on this. Maybe someone else can find the exact source and advice.


There is some confusion within "Christianity" regarding the meaning of salvation, law, obedience, and faith, and the relationship among these concepts. While it is right and appropriate for us to proclaim that faith only and the Protestant/Evangelical way of understanding salvation, obedience, and faith are distortions of what God has taught in Scripture, it is no better to go too far the other way and become guilty of the very thing God is condemning through Paul. Much of the difficulty involves proper understanding of the meanings of words, for it is easy to take concepts out of their proper categories and distort them in the process.
Thus, inherent in the concept of salvation is the need for deliverance. This is something evident no matter what approach we take to understand salvation: salvation as redemption demands that we must have incurred some cost; salvation as deliverance demands that we must be delivered from something; salvation as atonement demands that there is something for which we need atonement.
Put simply, our idea of "salvation" or being "saved by x" must still make sense if we take out "salvation" or "saved" and insert "deliverance/delivered," "rescue/rescued," and the like instead. If it does not make sense, then we have strayed from the God's concept of salvation.
Thus, why do people need salvation? This is when we can start speaking of law. But what is the law, why is there law, why does the law matter, and what is the relationship between law, sin, salvation, and condemnation?
A law is a rule– a code of conduct. The Ten Commandments in Exodus 20:3-17 represent the quintessential expression of law: you shall honor your father and mother. You shall not bear false witness. Laws express what is to be done versus what is not to be done.
It is true that law exists to provide structure and definition to conduct (Romans 7:7, 1 John 3:4). Before there was sin there was a law of sorts– Adam and Eve were not to eat of the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil (Genesis 2:16-17). Nevertheless, the essential reason for law is captured by Paul in Galatians 3:19 and 1 Timothy 1:9: law is there because of those who break them. Yes, God established the universe in justice (Psalm 89:14), but the particular parameters of how justice works in the case of how an Israelite is to handle a Hebrew slave must be set forth because of man's propensity toward rebellion (Exodus 21:1-11).
The Law, as the expression of what is right versus what is wrong, is good, holy, and perfect (Psalm 19:7, Romans 7:12). But what can the Law– or, indeed, any law– do? Law does not do anything– it simply is. Law defines good conduct and bad conduct, what is commendable and what is abhorrent. Based upon law, one can be defined as compliant with the law or in transgression of the law. But what does that really mean?
This is when we must make the necessary separation between law and consequence. For example, if the law states that one is to drive a vehicle no more than 65 miles an hour down a given road, but I am driving 70 miles an hour, I am in violation of the law– a transgressor. But what happens if those charged with enforcing that law do nothing about it? What if, while I am in transgression, they actually pass me and are going even faster? I might be a transgressor, but there is no consequence. In a similar way, if one is following the law and driving no more than 65 miles an hour, what happens? Nothing. One is in compliance with the law. One may not be afraid of any penalties, but there is no expectation of some reward.
Therefore, by definition, no one can ever be "saved by law," since the Law– any law– can do nothing on its own. Law just tells you what is right and what is wrong. By law, one may be defined as compliant or as a transgressor, but such a definition does not automatically lead to some kind of deliverance or condemnation. There must be some other acting agent that provides a consequence– a reward or a punishment. Law, on its own, can do no such thing. This is why no one in the New Testament ever talks about law in terms of salvation. As we will see, law is spoken of in terms of justification, and there are very good reasons for that.
We can think about this in another way. If we rephrase "saved by law" according to our standard above, it is saying that we are "rescued by law" or "delivered by law." How could such a thing happen? If we have broken the law and stand condemned as transgressors, can the law somehow save us? No– it is the very thing that has defined us as transgressors! The law, on its own, has no means of redemption or rescue; it just declares things as they are. But if we have not broken the law in any way, shape, or form, then the statement is still meaningless, because what are we being delivered from or rescued from? How can the law deliver us or rescue us if we have not done anything that has caused us to need deliverance or rescue?
Because by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified in his sight; for through the law cometh the knowledge of sin (Romans 3:20).
Now that no man is justified by the law before God, is evident: for, "the righteous shall live by faith;" and the law is not of faith; but, "he that doeth them shall live in them" (Galatians 3:11-12).
For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is become guilty of all. For he that said, "do not commit adultery", said also, "do not kill." Now if thou dost not commit adultery, but killest, thou art become a transgressor of the law (James 2:10-11).
Once one breaks one law, one is a transgressor. It does not matter whether he follows or does not follow the Law for the rest of his life. Everyone in the Old Testament, at some point, broke the law. Abraham lied (Genesis 12:10-20). Moses killed a man, and disobeyed God's command (Exodus 2:12, Numbers 20:10-12). David committed adultery with Bathsheba (2 Samuel 11). In so doing, they all became transgressors. No matter what else they were to do or not do in their lives, they would stand before God as transgressors of the Law. Thus, their standing before God could not be based on their adherence to His law, for they did not completely and fully adhere to that law! That was true then and it remains true now (Romans 3:23)!
All of this is why Paul shows strenuously in Romans 7 that the law is not the problem or the solution. It just is. The problem that demands the solution– the reason why we need saving in the first place– is sin. Yes, sin is defined by the law– the commission of that which the law proscribes, the omission of that which the law prescribes– and sin is lawlessness, acting outside of the authority of the law, as John says in 1 John 3:4. Yes, without the law, sin lies dead, since it has no definition (Romans 7:8). Sin and the law, then, are quite intertwined, but the law remains holy while sin remains quite unholy and the problem.
Why is sin a problem? If there were no consequence for transgression, then there would be no problem. Nevertheless, from the beginning until now, the consequence of sin– transgression of the law– is death (Genesis 2:17, 3:14-19, Romans 6:23). That consequence exists because God has fixed it as existing. God, as the Creator of the universe, has not only defined the law but also has established the consequences of one's obedience or disobedience to the law. Those who transgress the Law are condemned (2 Thessalonians 1:6-9)!
For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death. For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God, sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh (Romans 8:2-3).
Thus, God is the One who can save. On their own, humans can do nothing about their sin except stand before God as transgressors deserving condemnation. There can be no justification by law, for law just tells it like it is, and the flesh is weak. On what basis, then, is there justification? On what basis does God declare a person righteous? On what basis does God rescue a person?
Yet it is really no different. We cannot be justified by law in the new covenant. We can go through the plan of salvation and have our past sins covered through the blood of Christ, but what happens the moment when we sin again? Will anyone who is a Christian declare that they have never transgressed the law of Christ from the moment of their conversion until this very moment? By no means!
This is why Paul says in Romans 3:23 that all have sinned (past tense) and fall short of the glory of God (present tense). We are still not there. We still transgress God's will by doing that which is proscribed and not doing that which is prescribed at times. To say or act to the contrary is self-delusion and folly (1 John 1:8)!
Thus, we are not justified by the law of Christ, because we have all transgressed the law of Christ– in other terms, if our attempt to stand before God was based on that law, we would be condemned as transgressors. All of our obedience to the law of Christ would be vitiated by our disobedience against it.
Therefore, our confidence cannot be in our obedience, because we have not been fully obedient. Our "moral striving," on its own basis, now counts as much as our "moral striving" did before we learned of Christ.
This is why God stresses through Paul that we are saved– delivered or rescued– by grace through faith, and that our justification is based on faith (Galatians 3:24, Ephesians 2:8). Notice what was necessary for our rescue: God loving us even though we were unlovable, willing to suffer the death of His Son, His Son Himself willing to suffer and humble Himself, and so on (cf. John 3:16, Romans 5:6-11, Philippians 2:5-11). We did not deserve this or earn it in any way– it was given as a gift, and thus is rightly reckoned as grace. Yet grace, on its own, is clearly insufficient, or else everyone would receive deliverance and rescue through Jesus, and God makes it clear that such will not be the case (Matthew 7:13-14, 21-23, Romans 2:5-11, 2 Thessalonians 1:6-9). That is why salvation is by grace through faith– we must believe that God exists and that He has acted definitively against sin and death through His Son Jesus Christ (Hebrews 11:6, Romans 8:1-3).
But what is this faith? Can it be mere mental assent to the proposition of God acting in Christ? By no means, for demons mentally assent to God's existence and saw the work of Christ, but were not saved (Matthew 8:29, James 2:19)! We must certainly intellectually assent to the existence in God and deliverance in Christ, but faith goes far beyond this.
James makes it evident in James 2:14-26 that faith without works is dead. Whereas faith and obedience are often held in tension by many today, such tension is not coming from the New Testament. Paul can speak in the same letter about justification by faith and that we cannot be justified by works of the law (Romans 3-5) and also speak of the need for obedience and judgment on the basis of works (Romans 1:5, 2:5-11, 6:1-22).
This is because faith, at its core, is confidence and trust. We cannot be saved by our works, since we have done bad things and not done every good thing. The Law cannot help us, since the Law just tells it like it is. God in Christ, however, can deliver us, and has provided the means of deliverance through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth. Yet we must place our confidence and trust in Jesus as Lord, since He was given all authority (Matthew 28:18) and is the Mediator and High Priest of the new covenant (Hebrews 7-9).
Can we really say that we put our confidence and trust in Jesus if we refuse to follow what He has said and done? Of course not, and that is why anyone who would do such a thing stands condemned according to Matthew 7:21-23. Putting our confidence and trust in Jesus demands that we seek to do what He has said– to do what He tells us to do, to avoid what He tells us to avoid (1 John 2:3-6).
So yes, ultimately, we must strive to be obedient to God in Christ (Romans 6:16-18). But we cannot put our trust in our obedience or in that law– we put our trust in God in Christ. We must do this because we do not always uphold the law of Christ. Even though we strive to be obedient, many times we prove to be disobedient. If our trust is in our following of His law, those moments of disobedience stand condemning us. But if our trust is in God in Christ, and we recognize those times when we prove disobedient, and we confess those times before Him and plead to be forgiven, and we continue to seek to be His obedient servants, then God is faithful and righteous to forgive us and maintain our cleansing (1 John 1:9).
This is why we are justified by faith– it is the only means by which we can follow after God's purposes while receiving forgiveness for our deficiencies and insufficiencies. That is why Paul describes the church as the bride of Christ whom He has cleansed by the washing of water with the word, leading to its sanctification (Ephesians 5:25-27). We cannot be rescued while we remain in our sins and under the penalty of death. Jesus is the means by which we can have forgiveness of sins and thus be released from the penalty of death. Without that cleansing we remain filthy; without the opportunity for continuous cleansing, we will become as defiled as before, and again be subject to the penalty of death. Continuous cleansing cannot come through obedience to the law any more than our original cleansing came through it. It only comes from the gracious favor of God, and God only bestows it upon those who place their trust in Him and His Son and who ask for it (Ephesians 5:25-27, 1 John 1:9)!
Therefore, we are not saved by our works or by our obedience, but we cannot be saved without them. Works and obedience are insufficient, for they are not complete; since they are not complete, confidence in them only leads to condemnation. It is through faith that we receive the blessings of God's grace as manifest in Christ, but that faith itself is insufficient if it does not lead one to strive to be an obedient servant of the Lord Jesus Christ. But there is never a time when that obedience eclipses faith, for we continually fall short of God's glory, and thus cannot be justified by our obedience. We must instead seek to do God's will as reflected in the law of Christ in the New Testament because we understand that God is our Creator and we are the creation, and that He has declared His Son Jesus as our Lord and Savior. Ultimately, everything flows from our faith in Christ: we trust that since He lived a perfect life, that we ought to walk as He walked (1 Corinthians 11:1, 1 John 2:6). We trust that since He is Lord of heaven and earth, we ought to do what He says to do, follow His commandments, and serve Him (Romans 6:16-18, 1 John 2:3-5). We trust that since God loved us enough to send His Son to die for our sins, we ought to avoid sin, but when we fall short, if we humble ourselves, admit our wrongdoing, and seek to do it no more, that He is faithful and righteous to forgive us of those sins (1 John 1:9). Finally, we trust that since He has done what He has said He would do, we can be confident that the day of Judgment will come, God will render to everyone according to what they have done, and those who are declared righteous because of their trust in Jesus will receive eternal life and glory, while all others will receive condemnation and torment (Acts 17:30-31, Romans 2:5-11, 8:17-18, 2 Thessalonians 1:5-12).
God created the universe in justice, establishing His Law as the governing principle of the creation. By transgressing that Law, man has sinned and suffers the consequence of death. All the law can do is declare what is right and wrong; it by itself cannot justify. God has shown mercy in that while we remained in sin and could do nothing about it, Jesus His Son died for the ungodly. We can obtain that mercy by trusting in Him, and that trust demands that we renounce our own ways and seek His ways. Nevertheless, we always stand in need of that mercy, and at no point can trust in our own obedience. Let us always trust in God in Christ, and not in ourselves!

The mod was developed using a vesta 675 and the pictures are of the same. As the mod really concerns just the connections to the 16510 then the mod should work with any CCD camera using this chip. It is worthwhile making 1 check first though. Using a multimeter see if pins 8 and 13 on the 16510 are electrically connected (0 ohms). If they are not the mod should still work but the control circuit will need a small change (email me smunch@clara.co.uk). If pins 8 and 13 are connected then you are in business.
Dismantle the camera and disconnect the CCD PDB. The camera PCB is pretty hardy and seems to tolerate abuse quite well. However do take antistatic precautions and check your work with a magnifier and multimeter to see if any solder bridges occur.
The vesta camera PCB has 2 sides. Top has the 3 large IC's and the bottom holds the 16510 (near the ccd pcb connector).
Firstly locate the 16510 and its pin numbering (pin 1 towards the CCD connector side). Now using some solder wick remove the solder from under legs 8,10,and 13. Then using some heat and a small blade (eg jewllers screwdriver) lift these legs.
This is really the only bit were you could damage the camera. Lift the legs carefully so as not to snap them.
Now solder wire to the raised legs 13 and 8 of the 16510.
To achive this without risking adding a large lump of solder, I made very small loops in the wire and added a small amount of solder to these. The wire was then placed against the chip leg and heat applied. It is very important not to tug on these wires when soldered in case the IC legs snap, so again fix the wire to the PCB.
If you don't need the shutter function then the tricky bits are finished. However if you would like to keep the shutter control available then wires also need soldering to pin 10 and the pad below pin 10.
Care is needed for this lower lead as there are a number of contact pads on the PCB close to where this lead will run. Try first covering the PCB in this area with insulation tape.
The last bit of work on the pcb is to attach wires to the 5V and 0V of the USB connector to power the logic ic's (see pic at top of page, 5V red wire and 0V green).
Then all that's left is to connect up all the wires (nb lead B is from pin 2 of printer port) and double check for them solder bridges. To test the camera connect to USB but not printer port. The camera should work as normal except the shutter control will not work. Then download the software on the next page, connect to printer port and try a long exposure. During the exposure the preview window should turn black.
If all this works then WELL DONE you now have a deep sky capable colour webcam!!!!!

The Fall of Babylon
The Sunday Sermon: Second Sunday of Easter – April 28, 2019
Scripture: Revelation 1:1-8
Hear the sermon: Coming Soon
Download the message to play on your own device: Coming Soon
We continue this week in our Eastertide journey through the book of Revelation. I admonished those who were last week, saying that they, that you, need to actually read this book. You probably won't, but you should. It's not about the end of the world. It's not about a Second Coming that allows violence and destruction and death to conquer the life, non-violence, and creation that the First Coming of God in Christ established. It is about transformation, re-creation. We will understand the Revelation of John and share the second coming only by coming to terms with the fact that the first coming was the only coming and getting with the program.
The more I read and study, and then teach and preach this writing, the more I believe John himself came to terms with that reality. This writing, this revelation, is his attempt to tell the Christians at the end of the first century that God will prevail because God did prevail, conquering sin and death in the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. We faithfully celebrated Easter only four weeks ago. We must only remain steadfast in our faith – in our trust in and fidelity to the Way of Life that Jesus of Nazareth lived and died for.
Last week, with the sounding of the seventh trumpet in our scripture reading, we were brought (once again) to the End. By the close of the twelfth chapter of Revelation, all that is supposed to happen at the end-times victory of God happens: The Kingdom comes, God Godself comes, the dead are raised, the last judgment is held, the good are rewarded, the corruption of creation is destroyed, there is a sense of restoration and fulfillment (Interpretation, "Revelation." 150).
"The Kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Messiah, and he will reign forever and ever."
Chronologically, things can proceed no further. We have been through the final plagues (twice, actually, if you're reading!) and reached the End. There is a sense in which the writing could end here, as the first readers and hearers may well have supposed it would (150). And yet … here we are. Back this week still in the book of Revelation, so … the writing hasn't ended, John is not done, even though the message has been delivered. God has done, again, what God has always done and will always do. What remains is for us to do what we must do. The challenge of our lives as children of God and disciples of Christ: to live faithfully, to destroy Babylon.
Pray with me. And listen now for the Word of God. Read Revelation 18:1-4. The Word of the Lord. Thanks be to God.
"Come out of Babylon, my people …" What is Babylon? We'll get to that answer this morning, so we may "come out" of it.
What follows the eleventh chapter of Revelation is an extended section that is not at all a chronological continuation of the preceding visions. It's not a conclusion of them either. What happens in the chapters of this week is a kind of flashback and fast-forward all at the same time, from before the creation till the end of time. John is "revealing" to us what has always been and always will be in the human made world of God's good creation. He believes that the Christians in Asia Minor, and we, need to keep the decisions we must make in perspective – the perspective of eternity.
These chapters in his writing provide a "behind the scenes" look at the powers of evil at work in the world. He uses the mythology of his day and of his world to tell a variation of the universal story of how the forces of darkness, disorder, and death rebel against the divine order, kill or seize the newborn king and establish a rule of darkness (151). The Roman Emperors used this mythology to their great gain, claiming their rule as the "Golden Age" and casting themselves in the role of the god Apollo. Nero actually erected a statue to himself as Apollo. Coins had the radiance of the sun god emanating from the emperor's head. Roma was the goddess, the emperor was the son who kills the dragon which represents the power of chaos.
John recasts the story, of course, providing new identities for the characters, and using two worlds to make sense out of one: Heaven and Earth. On the side of the forces of good are the woman, the child, Michael and the angels, the Earth itself, the "brethren," and of course, God. The villains in the cosmic drama are the dragon and the beasts from the sea and from the land the Great Harlot, and, of course, "Satan." The woman who labors to bring forth the child brings to mind Mary, the mother of the Messiah. But she's more. She's Eve, she's Israel, she's Mary, she's the church, anything and anyone who brings forth God's anointed. The woman's child is God's anointed, the Messiah, the Christ in every age. The child is snatched away and taken to God at birth, escaping the dragon by dying to new life.
Michael and the angels fight against the dragon as "war breaks out in heaven." Michael defeats the dragon and throws it down to earth. John does not want the churches he writes to in Asia Minor to imagine that miraculous help will save them from persecution and death. They (we) have work to do, too. Nature, including humanity, is the good creation of God and has its role to play in salvation history. The Earth is not just the stage, but an actor in the drama. In chapter twelve, verse sixteen, the Earth comes "to the help of the woman."
A beast rises out of the sea. It evokes images of Rome, but like the woman that began this epic story, it is much more. It is the inhuman, anti-human arrogance of empire which finds expression in Rome, but not only there. Where are the inhuman, anti-human arrogant forces at work in the world today? A second beast rises out of the earth, a false prophet. As the Holy Spirit leads people to live a life in tension with the norms of this world, this beast/false prophet enables them to fit into the economic structures of this world. All misinformation from this creature tempts us to idolize human empire.
And, of course, one of the most well known acts of this false prophet is to mark everyone who would follow it. "It is the number of a person. Its number is six-hundred sixty-six" Rev. 13:18 says the writing. This text about the "mark of the beast" has been a happy hunting ground for religious quacks and sensationalizers (161) and its important to say a quick word. One of the most well known explanations for more serious interpreters is found in the Ancient Jew's practice of working out the numerical values of letters. The numerical value of the name Nero Ceasar in Hebrew is 666. There is a rather complex calculation involved in getting to this explanation. John was writing in Greek, but in order for the number of Nero to add up to 666 it would have to be rendered in Hebrew. Would Greek readers have known the Hebrew spelling and been able to calculate the numerical value of the Hebrew letters?
Another interpretation of "the mark" notes that the number seven used throughout Revelation in relation to angels, churches, seals, trumpets, and bowls implies completeness. The number six three times over (666) falls one short of the number of perfection. The number "666" is a threefold falling short of perfection. It has many of the "hallmarks of truth," and so it can easily deceive. This beast is "near to perfection" but what it lacks makes it opposed to God.
We have been "marked by the Lamb" back in chapter seven, with a "seal on (our) foreheads." Whatever our interpretation of the mark of the Beast, we are supposed to be alert in discerning the nature and costs of our commitments to anything other than the will of God in the Way of Christ. That's not enough to undo the decades of other interpretations of "666" that have provoked our imaginations and stoked our fears, but it must serve for now, because now … the Fall of Babylon begins.
You see, the hidden actors that drive all the heroes and villains involved in this "behind the scenes" look at the powers of evil at work in the world are God Almighty and a shadowy creature who provokes and prompts the evil incarnate in the world. John first refers to the latter in his opening letters to the churches and identifies him throughout his writing most often as Satan, but also as the devil, or the accuser. "Satan" is a proper name for what was originally in Hebrew scripture a fairly generic word for "adversary." There are three passages in our Old Testament in which this "accuser" is given an identity as one of the angels in the heavenly court who help God "test" human beings, but even these passages don't speak of "Satan" as the personification of evil.
No, it was during the "intertestamental period," the time between the writings in our Old Testament and New, a period of about 400 years after the writing of Malachi in 420 BCE and before the appearance of John the Baptist in the first century CE, it was during this period that the figure of Satan emerged in Jewish tradition. Jewish monotheism didn't allow this "Satan" to be a second God, but "it" became this leader of all evil spirits, and had its own kingdom of darkness that opposed the kingdom of God. And though not as "full blown" as he will become even later, by the time the New Testament "opens," Satan was the one who tempts humanity to discord, violence, immorality, and overall opposition to God and God's kingdom on earth.
Early Christianity used this shadowy figure, this mythical Satan, to express its belief that evil was more than the simple "accumulation of individual sins" against God. Evil was "embodied" in the social structures of human beings, in the conflicts of religious communities, and (most especially for John in Revelation) in the institutionalized evil of the Roman Empire. John doesn't go into any "origin stories", but he does write a pretty traditional scenario for the destruction of the devil and all his influence in the world and its people, specifically the Christians of the churches in Asia minor, and by extension two thousand years later, Satan's influence on us.
As we noted at the very beginning of the message this morning, the decisive battle has already been fought and won in the Christ event that John writes of in the first twelve chapters. The systemic and structural powers of evil, "Satan," has been defeated in the heavenly court. In John's fantastical "behind the scenes" look in the chapters we're in this morning, he reveals to us that this evil still has power on earth. Knowing its days are numbered, it is still wreaking havoc through its agents of destruction – the dragon, the beasts, the Great Harlot – Rome itself (or any empire in any age).
Though John is not concerned with the origin of this evil, he is profoundly concerned with the effects of it, and in this section of the apocalyptic story he is telling, believe it or not, he's trying to offer encouragement to faithful Christians suffering in the midst of it. It's dangerous language because we so desperately want to take it literally as something that happened long ago, or because we can step into a "devil-made-me-do-it" responsibility for our own actions. Many of us have simply rejected talk of "Satan" as superstitious, unreasonable, or even unfaithful. But understood properly, taken seriously but not literally, Satan language and imagery can give us some pretty profound theological truths, insights and affirmations.
The power of evil is bigger than individual sins. John consistently speaks in political and national terms when we he talks of Satan. In chapter twenty, he calls it "the deceiver of nations." We can understand it today as a systemic failure that influences us quite apart from our own creation as children of God. It urges us to live in service to ourselves, to live in fear of others, to categorize and demonize in order to control and suppress all that is not "us." Cosmic is not too big a word. "Dragon" is not too bizarre an image when we take this language seriously, not literally.
I read one of the most provocative and challenging interpretations of the malevolent forces at work in our lives and the world this week. In New Testament Apocalyptic published in 1981, Paul Minear, professor of Biblical Theology and Director of Graduate Studies in Religion at Yale divinity School noted that "to treat any human enemies as ultimate enemies constitutes deception of the first order" (108) by Satan. In this way of understanding evil, perhaps the main function or John's Revelation to the world is to disclose to the Christians in Asia Minor and all of us today our real enemy. It was not the Jews and Romans harassing them, even imprisoning and killing them, that are the real enemies. It is not the people we, today, want to demonize and hate. No, they too are victims of the real adversary – the inhumanity in each one of us that entices us to idolize the values of Empire that dehumanize everyone, in every age.
The Fall of Babylon will happen, can only happen, when we understand what it is. It is not a person, or a group of people, or even any worldly political power. It is the inhuman, antihuman arrogance that tempts humanity to discord, violence, immorality, and overall opposition to God and God's kingdom on earth in any age.
"Come out of her, my people, So that you do not take part in her sins, And so you so not share in her plagues.
Babylon must fall so that a new heaven and a new earth may come. That 's what awaits us next week. "Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of the prophecy, and blessed are those who hear and keep what is written in it." May it be us. Amen.

Topic: Beckham told to skip TomKat wedding
CHRIS LEHOURITES
LONDON - Not even David Beckham can get a day off to attend a friend's wedding. The soccer star-pop idol wanted to stay in Rome for an extra day to watch Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes tie the knot, but Real Madrid didn't like that idea.
The Spanish team allowed Beckham to travel to Italy to visit the Hollywood couple Friday. Then the club wanted the injured midfielder back in Spain to sit in the stands for Saturday's game against Racing Santander.
Real Madrid 1, Beckham 0.
"He's injured," Madrid coach Fabio Capello said. "He hasn't recovered and he has to train."
Beckham has been training plenty, including Monday, but he has started only three times this season for Madrid. The injury to his left knee also will force him to miss Madrid's Champions League match against Lyon on Tuesday.
The 31-year-old former England captain, whose contract with Madrid ends in June, is nearing the end of his career. That could be good news for fans of Major League Soccer, and the kids attending his soccer academy in Los Angeles.
Beckham has been contemplating a move to the United States for some time. And given his penchant for the big-time, with his ever-changing hairstyles and advertising campaigns, a country that creates celebrities as fast as most people change socks seems the perfect place for him and his pop star wife, former Spice Girls singer Victoria.
"I want to play at the highest level for a few more years yet," Beckham said at the World Cup in Germany. "Going to America is one of the ideas that I've thought of in the future."
The future could be sooner than even he expected.
Beckham scored the only goal in a 1-0 win over Ecuador in the second round of the World Cup, but after a shootout loss to Portugal in the quarterfinals, he stepped down as England captain.
A short time later, new coach Steve McClaren dropped him altogether.
On the other side of the Atlantic, the American league is already making plans for Beckham's arrival. Less than two weeks ago, MLS decided on a rule that will allow teams to sign high-profile players despite a salary cap: It's called the "Beckham Rule."
But could Beckham's future really be pushed forward years just because he wanted to spend an extra day in Rome?
Capello has shown he is not a huge fan of Beckham by the lack of playing time given to the midfielder. Rumors in Spain even suggest Beckham could be leaving Madrid in January, when the transfer window reopens.
Despite the glamour of having played alongside other "Galacticos" such as Zinedine Zidane, Ronaldo and Luis Figo, Beckham may be better off at another team anyway.
He has yet to win a major trophy since joining Madrid in 2003. At Manchester United, Beckham won six Premier League titles. In 1999 he helped the team win the Champions League, the English league and the FA Cup.
Moving to another team will also give him more playing time and a chance to get back on the national team - though that seems unlikely with McClaren in charge.
England, which has only two wins and a tie from its four Euro 2008 qualifying matches, next plays a competitive game at Andorra on March 28.
A jump to the United States, however, will all but end any chance he has to get back on the national team because neither McClaren nor any other England coach is likely to pick someone playing in MLS.
But consider the benefits: He'll be able to hang out with Tom and Katie.
Beckham will 'quit in two years'

Bitcoin just hit an all time high price of $1220 which is roughly $45 above previous highs from 2013. But how? According to the media and so-called financial experts Bitcoin died three years ago after it crashed to less than $200. It was labeled a 'tulip' frenzy and Ponzi scheme. Outsiders didn't only dismiss it as a joke, they were often hostile toward it. Paul Krugman famously wrote a blog post in 2013 with a tantalizing title, "Bitcoin Is Evil" . Other mainstream media outlets wrote hit pieces with titles such as "The Exact Date for Bitcoin's Final Crash to $0.00" or "Bitcoin Will Crash to $10 By Mid 2014". And I get it, after Mt. Gox was hacked of $450 million dollars, it was extremely easy to lose sight of what made Bitcoin so exciting. It was easy to assume that because the price was crashing, Bitcoin was dead. The truth however revealed something entirely different. If you took a step back, and looked at bitcoin without any form of bias, it was flourishing.
After the bubble in 2013 that took Bitcoin from $10 to $1200, the ecosystem saw tremendous growth despite the declining price. Large name retailers such as Dell, Expedia, and even Microsoft started accepting BTC as a form of payment. World renown technologists and investors such as Marc Andreessen and Richard Branson actively endorsed and praised the technology as being the next step in the evolution of money. Even the Chairmen of the Federal Reserve, Ben Bernanke was quoted saying "[Virtual Currencies] may hold long-term promise, particularly if the innovations promote a faster, more secure and more efficient payment system." These are all people who saw the big picture in the midst of extreme adversity. Pandora's box had been opened, and no one could stop it.
Lets get into the numbers. During the price decline in 2014, total Bitcoin trading volume went from $15 billion to $25 billion dollars, an increase of 57%. Venture Capital went from $96 million to $335 million, an increase of 342%. The number of countries with VC investment in Bitcoin companies went from 8 to 18, an increase of 125%. The number of Bitcoin wallets went from 2 million to 8 million an increase of 400%. The number of transactions on the network went from 54,000 to over 150,000 per day, an increase of nearly 300%. Merchants adopting Bitcoin as a means of payment went from 14,000 to 45,000, an increase of over 200%. And last but not least, mining power behind the network went from 10,000 TH/s to 300,000 TH/s, an increase of over 30,000%. The question remains, why didn't any of this get covered or talked about? And I think the answer is complex, but to simplify, Bitcoin made people uncomfortable. It made people question the definition of money itself. Could a new form of currency exist outside of central control and governments? When most people ask themselves this question, they naturally revert to a comfortable state by laughing at it and calling it a joke. However, the reality was that a silent revolution was taking place behind the scenes.
As of right now, the price of Bitcoin has never been higher. Bitcoin now transacts 1.8 billion dollars per week on its network with no signs of slowing down and all of the growth metrics mentioned in the paragraph above have seen large increases since 2014. There are several reasons why one should remain optimistic about Bitcoin into the near future.
1) Bitcoin's protocol went through a halving in July of 2016. This happens every four years and means that new coins being created by the network gets cut in half until there are none left (reduced supply).
2) As the PBOC continues to devalue the Yuan, Chinese citizens look for ways to hedge out of their currency. This will continue to lead to a large increase in demand for BTC in China.
3) Bitcoin is seen as digital gold and a hedge against the world. During the course of its short history, things like the Brexit and Greek debt crisis have led to huge spikes in the price and demand for BTC. With a lot of questions going around about the future of the European Union and the geopolitical uncertainty that exists because of the Trump presidency, Bitcoin will likely flourish.
4) Hyperinflation: Bitcoin is a way for citizens that live in country's experiencing hyperinflation to opt out. For example, Venezuelan Bitcoin transactional volume is up 1200% over the last six months. They are even using the currency to buy groceries through Amazon vendors because no one will take the Bolivar as a form of payment since it's basically worthless.
5) Scaling: There are several exciting new layers being built on top of the Bitcoin protocol. The lightning network which should go live this year will enable up to 1 billion settled transactions per second at next to no cost. To put that into perspective, Visa's capacity is currently 30,000 transactions per second and it's next to impossible to send tiny amounts of money because it's too expensive. Another scaling product is called RSK Rootstock. This is a smart contract platform that will expand Bitcoin's capabilities far beyond what they are now.
Not only will you be able to send money across the network, with Rootstock you will be able to implement an autonomous instruction manual into each transaction.
Bitcoin will continue to see tremendous growth and innovation over the coming years. It's important to remember, Bitcoin is something different to everyone and its always changing and evolving. To some, it alleviates the pain of transferring money overseas. To others, it's a hedge against their corrupt and hyperinflationary central banks and governments. And to the four billion people in the world who are either not banked or underbanked, it's a way to gain global and equal access. I hope you will continue to read and learn about Bitcoin, as it may be a driving force for change in the coming years. And remember, the next time you hear Bitcoin is dead, take a step back and think twice, because it will likely be a great time to buy.

I saw a series of unrelated tweets and Facebook statuses which got me thinking about New England…again.
When Christ came to America, it was to a region later known as New England. In 1620 the Pilgrims actually landed at Provincetown, not Plymouth. They anchored and 2 weeks to long-boat around the area to scout a suitable harbor and settling spot. That ended up being Plymouth, and they later expanded to Boston and Cambridge.
The Puritans later spanned out across the region, bringing Jesus with them. The reason they left Holland and England was to find a place where they could worship in peace, and they came here to do so. The fire was in their belly and Jesus was in their heart and evangelism was on their mind. With that, by 1636 they had begun a College, established for the express purpose of educating young men in Christian ways and doctrine, so as to become godly leaders of families and good witnesses to the natives for His name. That University was Harvard. Princeton and Yale soon followed.
With some 17,000 Puritans migrating to New England by 1636, Harvard was founded in anticipation of the need for training clergy for the new commonwealth, a "church in the wilderness." Harvard was formed in 1636 by vote of the Great and General Court of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. It was initially called "New College" or "the college at New Towne". In 1638 the school received a printing press—the only press in North America until Harvard acquired a second in 1659.
New Light Presbyterians founded the College of New Jersey, later Princeton University, in 1746 in order to train ministers dedicated to their views.
Yale was founded in 1701 in Saybrook Colony to train Congregationalist ministers.
Let every Student be plainly instructed, and earnestly pressed to consider well, the maine end of his life and studies is, to know God and Jesus Christ which is eternal life (John 17:3) and therefore to lay Christ in the bottome, as the only foundation of all sound knowledge and Learning. And seeing the Lord only giveth wisedome, Let every one seriously set himself by prayer in secret to seeke it of him (Prov. 2:3).
Every one shall so exercise himselfe in reading the Scriptures twice a day, that he shall be ready to give such an account of his proficiency therein, both in Theoreticall observations of Language and Logick, and in practical and spiritual truths, as his Tutor shall require, according to his ability; seeing the entrance of the word giveth light, it giveth understanding to the simple (Psalm 119:130).
The motto of the University adopted in 1692 was "Veritas Christo et Ecclesiae" which translated from Latin means "Truth for Christ and the Church.
The U.S. has become notably less Christian in the last few years, but the shift has come unevenly, with New England and the Pacific Northwest at the leading edge of the social transformation and the South holding fast to more traditional religious beliefs.
Among the 10 states with the largest percentage of adults who profess no religion, New England has four — Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont and Massachusetts — and the other six are in the West, according to a major new study by the Pew Research Center.
Which is all very sad, but not surprising. After the first wave of original apostles, do we hear much about the churches there? Is there a church at Sardis? Corinth? By the time John was an aged man, Jesus gave the Revelation to him and several of the 7 churches in Asia Minor received no commendation from Jesus at all. They were charged with coasting on reputation, having their love for Him gone cold, of allowing false prophetesses to flourish uncorrected, and worse. And that was just within the lifespan of one apostle. After nearly three hundred years, of course if left unchecked, or if compromise had proceeded unaddressed, the churches of New England would falter and die.
Here are some interesting articles about New England's decline in fervor for Jesus.
Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Oxford—Once Christian?
The cracks first appeared in the late 1700s and early 1800s, culminating with the influence of Charles Lyell's three volumes of Principles of Geology in the 1830s. Belief in an old-earth seriously wounded widespread acceptance of the Flood and the biblical chronology, and Lyell just "finished off the victim and nailed the coffin shut," as AiG historian Dr. Terry Mortenson says.
This old-earth belief permeated universities by the mid 1800s, setting the stage for Darwin's evolutionary model in 1859 (Origin of Species) and his later work on human evolution The Descent of Man (1871), both of which required long ages. After Christian universities adopted these compromises, the slide from biblical Christianity to naturalism soon followed.
No matter where we are in the world, spiritual decline is inevitable. Fear not! The world hates Jesus. (John 15:18). No matter what the type of beginning a nation had, high or low, sacred or profane, all will fall. All parts of all nations will fall. Satan is working mightily to try and overthrow heaven's gates. The areas we hold dear, where we grew up, or where we live now, will some day be renewed! Every Christian who dwells in the places that are so dark now, will cry with joy when the Light comes. Jesus will revive every ember, bursting into glory light of pure and holy truth.
Until then, pray for New England.
Pray strongly. Stay with Christ. Cling.


RoD-Rock outcrop-Hollis complex, 3 to 25 percent slopes. This map unit consists of areas of exposed bedrock and nearly level to steep, shallow, somewhat excessively drained Hollis soil (fig. 9). It is on tops and along ridge lines of steep upland hills and in coastal areas along Boston Bay. In a typical area it is about 55 percent Rock outcrop, 40 percent Hollis soil, and 5 percent other soils. The areas of exposed bedrock and the Hollis soil in this map unit are intermingled so closely that it was not practical to separate them at the scale used for mapping. Areas of the map unit are long and narrow or irregular in shape and range from 5 to 200 acres.
Typically, the surface layer of the Hollis soil is black fine sandy loam about 3 inches thick. The subsoil is dark yellowish brown fine sandy loam about 11 inches thick. Bedrock is at a depth of about 14 inches. In some areas the substratum is yellowish brown fine sandy loam. The bedrock is granite, basalt, diorite, or conglomerate.
Included with this unit in mapping are small areas of moderately deep, well drained soils on foot slopes and very poorly drained Whitman and Swansea soils in depressions. In some areas slopes range to as much as 45 percent. Included areas make up about 10 percent of the map unit.
Permeability: Moderate or moderately rapid throughout.
Soil reaction.- Strongly acid or moderately acid.
Depth to bedrock.- 1 0 to 20 inches.
Depth to the seasonal high water table.- More than 6 feet.
Most areas of the Hollis soil are woodland. Many areas are used as parks and reservations. A few areas are used for radio, TV, or microwave transmission towers.
Extensive exposures of bedrock and the shallow Hollis soil of this map unit are generally not suitable to most uses. It is best suited to use as habitat for woodland wildlife and to recreational use such as hiking.
Potential productivity for northern red oak on this soil is moderate. Management concerns are shallow depth to bedrock and low available water capacity. Bedrock outcrops restrict the use of equipment. Some areas are suitable for hand-planting of trees.
The Hollis soil is generally not suitable for building site development and for use as sites for septic tank absorption fields. Areas that are better suited to these uses are generally nearby.
This Hollis soil is in capability subclass Vlls.

Global megastar Prince will distribute his new album, '20TEN', through a number of international media partnerships and alternative distribution channels.
The first phase of the release will take place in July 2010 when The Mirror and Daily Record in Britain, Rolling Stone Magazine in Germany, Courrier International in France and Belgium's Het Nieuwblad newspaper will cover-mount '20TEN', Prince's twenty seventh studio album. The Mirror, Rolling Stone and Het Nieuwblad had rare access to Prince at his Paisley Park complex in Minnesota.
Kiran Sharma, Prince's representative, said: "'The Most Beautiful Girl In The World' in 1994 was Prince's first number one selling single as a free artist. Now, in 2010, Prince continues to work in an independent capacity, highlighted here in a world first of delivering the new album across multiple territories, through complementary distribution channels. Further details regarding other territories will be announced soon."
Prince's 2007 album 'Planet Earth' was released as a free cover-mount CD with the Mail on Sunday newspaper in the U.K., to coincide with his London O2 Arena shows. '20TEN', a celebratory, quintessential Prince masterpiece, marks the start of his international 20TEN tour.
London-based marketing company Upfront Media Group, who coordinated 2007's Mail on Sunday campaign, worked on some of the new 20TEN campaign: "We are proud to be working with Prince again, creating this groundbreaking international cover-mount with 20TEN" said Upfront's managing director Simon Stanford.
Prince wrote, produced and recorded the album, which is described as having "strong funk and new wave elements". Recorded at Paisley Park, 20TEN features guest appearances by saxophonist Maceo Parker and singers Shelby J, Liv Warfield and Elisa Dease.
The nine songs on '20TEN' show Prince is still at the peak of his songwriting powers. No artist has created a body of work as dynamic or as diverse as Prince. No other recording artist has accomplished what he has in music, film, or new media. He is a one man juggernaut, uniting the genres of funk, rock, soul, jazz, R&B, pop, rap and new wave under one unique sound: his.
Fans can look forward to hearing new material from 20TEN as well as Prince's numerous hits. In true Prince fashion, no two shows are ever the same and anything can happen once the band starts playing! Prince will be joined on stage by Morris Hayes and Cassandra O'Neal (keyboards), Cora Coleman (drums), Josh Dunham (bass), Elisa Dease, Shelby Johnson & Olivia Warfield (vocals) and Fredrick Yonnet (harmonica).
A video has been shared for Mary Don't You Weep, which features on Prince's posthumous record, 'Piano & A Microphone 1983'.
An unheard Prince track has been released from the funk icon's upcoming posthumous record, 'Piano & A Microphone 1983'.
A new version of Prince's 17 Days has been shared.


What happened to Pakistan's super-spy?	What happened to Pakistan's super-spy?
What happened to Pakistan's super-spy?
Credible reports from Pakistan now confirm the death of Colonel Sultan Amir Tarar, code named "Colonel Imam"—known as a legendary spy in Pakistan who was almost a godfather for the Afghan Taliban under Mullah Umar's leadership.
Tarar was kidnapped by a faction of Pakistani Taliban aligned with Al Qaeda around 10 months ago. Another former spy, Khalid Khawaja, who accompanied him on a trip to the Waziristan area, was brutally murdered by kidnappers early on. There are conflicting reports about whether Tarar died of a heart attack or if he was killed by kidnappers because his family couldn't pay the ransom amount or fulfill their demands. His kidnappers knew his importance and were demanding some high-profile terrorists in military custody.
It's rumored in certain well-informed circles that Mullah Umar and [Pashtun warlord] Siraj Haqqani, two of Tarar's good friends, tried their best to rescue him but failed.
The episode reveals a few important trends.
First, the new generation of militants in the tribal areas of Pakistan and Afghanistan are now more deeply associated with Al Qaeda's worldview.
Second, the failure of Pakistan's powerful ISI [Inter-Services Intelligence] to rescue one of its heroes indicate its limitations as well—a development apparently underestimated in US power corridors.
Third, the emerging scenario means more cooperation and understanding is needed between the US and Pakistan to fight extremists and militants in the region.

Seeing Hue on the big screen
Hue is becoming an attractive destination for filmmakers. And in 2020, audiences are spoiled with the beautiful scenes of Hue in the movies: "The bride of Hue", "The cougar queen 3", "Kieu" ...

Through cinema, the beautiful scenes of Hue will attract tourists. Photo: PHAN TRUNG
The year of the film studio
After "The muse of Hue", the director duo Bao Nhan - NamCito continue to carry out a series of projects to promote Hue tourism through cinema. The movies "Flowers bloom at night" and "The bride of Hue" bring viewers another vitality of Hue, in addition to the usual ancient and quiet beauty.
"Flowers bloom at night" will enter Cannes Film Festival (France) in the future, while "The bride of Hue" is expected to screen in theaters in Australia, the USA, Korea ... Mar6 Pictures Company of these two the directors has just finished filming the movie "The cougar queen 3" in Hue.
Bao Nhan, the director, said that, depending on the content and purpose of each film project, they choose different locations, famous landmarks, and landscapes in Hue to film.
If "The muse of Hue" is a story about food and minimal life, "Flowers bloom at night" is a dreamy story, so it was filmed mostly in Phuoc Tich old village, An Hien garden house and a few mausoleum scenes. The movie "The cougar queen 3" is an entertaining film in the hit film series currently filmed in the most modern and luxurious spaces in Hue. Each project, we try to bring Hue into the cinema with a new perspective to promote and introduce to the audience a both ancient and modern land.
This year, Ha Cang village in Quang Phu commune, Quang Dien district was chosen as the setting for the movie "Blue eyes" directed by Victor Vu. As soon as the crew released the first trailer, many young people came to the lonely tree to "check in".
Victor Vu shared: "Hue is the most perfect place for "Blue eyes" because this place has the picturesque scenery, the quiet space, and bold literature quality. The roads, trees, villages, myrtle hills... will be very poetic in the eyes of the viewers".
Previously, there were many famous movies that chose Hue as the setting, such as: "Indochine", "The candle of the palace", "The moon at the bottom of the well", "The girl on the river" ... Especially, the French movie "Indochine" released in 1992 being the first foreign movie which was filmed in the palace and mausoleum in the Imperial City of Hue and won an Oscar (for movies in foreign languages). This event created a sudden increase in the number of European tourists, especially French visitors to Hue, the number of French visitors in the last 10 years has always been in the top 5.

Impressed by the poetic Huong River and Ngu Binh Mountain, Buu Loc, a director, will choose Hue to film 70% of the scenes in the movie "Kieu". Mr. Buu Loc said: "I often make films about culture and my number one choice is to shoot in Hue. 70% of the context in Hue will meet the demands of the script. Hue's setting can be brought into modern films and not just historical films."
Movies - a leverage for tourism
Talking with the directors who have been to Hue to film, they all affirm that Hue can become an ideal studio, an attractive destination for filmmakers in the future.
Through cinema, Thua Thien Hue has the opportunity to introduce its heritage, landscape, people, traditional culture, and especially food. Recently, the film "The muse of Hue" has been being shown on domestic and international flights of Vietnam Airlines and Korean KBS World channel.
Korean tourists are very interested in and want to come to Hue to experience the culture and cuisine. Hanatour Travel Company of South Korea is also planning to open charter flights from Korea to Hue.
The increase of film-based tourism is not new in the world. For example, after the movie "Kong - The Skull Island", Quang Binh and Ninh Binh retained the movie set for tourism and were very attractive destinations for tourists to visit and take pictures. The movie "Yellow flowers on green grass" by director Victor Vu helped to promote Phu Yen's tourism potential.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Phu Yen organized a meeting with the film crew to promote tourism destinations. Many travel agencies build tours by the name of the film to attract attention ... Before this film, the tourism growth rate of Phu Yen was only 12-13%, but from the day of the movie being shown, tourism increased over 20% and up to 30%.
The success of South Korea is the clearest evidence that cinema has an important role in promoting tourism. Recently, the World Tourism Organization - UNWTO assessed that Southeast Asia would become the fourth largest international tourist attraction in the world, and Vietnam is one of 10 countries with the fastest tourism growth. Attracting tourism through movies is also an advantage of Hue.
According to Mr. Nguyen Van Phuc, Deputy Director of the Department of Tourism, localities with filming destinations can create "check in" spots for people to take photos according to the film context. Travel agencies that organize tours to Hue should integrate these destinations. It is possible to combine the heritage tour with the country experience, including the scene of the movie "Blue eyes" on the way to Tam Giang lagoon in Quang Dien, or on the way to Thien Mu to stop at An Hien garden to see the setting of "The muse of Hue" ...

Ио́сиф Аро́нович Бужо́р (1902, село Кобаны, , , Российская Империя — 1941, Молдавия) — , активный участник большевистского подполья в Бессарабии в составе Румынии и в Молдавской ССР, оккупированной во время Великой Отечественной войны.

Биография
Rодился в 1902 году в селе Кобаны Белецкого уезда Бессарабской губернии (ныне  Республики Молдова). Окончил 4-классное училище в Бельцах.

В 1924 году нелегально переправился через Днестр, по которому проходила граница между Румынией и СССР, служил в Красной Армии. Член ВКП(б) с 1925 года. С мая 1925 года был народным судьёй в столице Молдавской АССР городе Балта, затем в Каменке, Ананьевe и Бирзуле, работал инструктором Народного комиссариата юстиции Молдавской АССР.
