The Table of the Show Bread
PARASHAT TERUMA
God spoke to Moshe saying: "Speak to the people of Israel and let them collect a contribution for Me, from every person whose heart moves him you shall accept a contribution. This is the contribution that you shall collect from them: gold, silver and bronze; sky blue, purple, crimson, linen and goatskins; hides of rams dyed red, seal hides and acacia wood; oil for the lights, spices for the anointing oil and for the incense of spices; onyx stones and precious stones to set into the efod and the breastplate. They shall fashion for Me a holy sanctuary, and I shall dwell among them. You shall fashion the Mishkan and its vessels just as I show you…" (Shemot 25:1-9)
Thus begins the account of the fashioning of the wilderness Tabernacle, a lengthy and detailed narrative that takes up the greatest part of the remainder of Sefer Shemot. The short introductory paragraph above that catalogues the required contributions provides us with an excellent summary of the elements involved: precious metals and wood for the vessels and the building walls, valuable dyes and embroidered textiles for its tent-like covers as well as for the priestly garments, precious stones for the vestments of the High Priest, and specially formulated oils and spices for anointing and kindling. Significantly, the materials for the project are to be collected from the people of Israel as free-will offerings, emphasizing the fact that for service of God to be meaningful it must be the product of autonomy as well as sincere.
THE VESSELS OF THE MISHKAN
Our Parasha goes on to describe the fashioning of the Mishkan's most important vessels: the Ark of the Testimony, the Table of the Show Bread, and the Menora. Attention is then turned to the curtains and boards of the building, as well as to the separations within that space, before interest is again focused on another vessel: the bronze altar. The account of our section then concludes with a discussion of the courtyard enclosure. Structurally, it is readily apparent that the ordering principle that guides the textual organization of the various sections is the concept of hierarchy. That is to say that the most important vessels are stated first, followed by a discussion of their respective enclosures: the Ark is to be placed within the so-called Holy of Holies, a sacred space that is separated from the rest of the building by a dividing curtain. The Table and Menora that are described in turn are still located within the building proper, but beyond the dividing curtain and in an area of lesser sanctity known as the Holy. The bronze altar, in contrast, is located entirely outside of the building in the outer courtyard, an exterior enclosure that is again demarcated by curtains.
This week, we will turn our attention to the account of the Table of the Show Bread, a glorious piece of gilded furniture with an unusual function. We will first consider the relevant verses before investigating some of the other sources on the matter:
You shall make a table of acacia wood, two cubits in length, one cubit in width, and one-and-one-half cubits in height. You shall gild it with pure gold and fashion for it an ornamental border around (its top). You shall prepare a frame for it one handbreadth in width and you shall fashion an ornamental border around the frame. You shall make for it four rings of gold, and you shall place the rings on the four corners of its four legs. The rings shall be adjacent to its frame and they shall function as receptacles for the staves in order to carry the table. You shall fashion the staves out of acacia wood and cover them with gold and with them the table shall be carried. You shall prepare its baking pans and its incense bowls, its shelf supports and its bars that cover it out of pure gold. You shall place upon the table show bread before Me always (Shemot 25:23-30).
THE IMPORTANCE OF THE TABLE AND ITS LOAVES
We note that the section describing the Table appears in the text immediately after the account of the Aron or Ark of the Covenant that is presented in Chapter 25 verses 10-22 and constitutes the Mishkan's most precious object. In ranking, then, the Table is second only to this gilded chest that contains the fabled Tablets of the Decalogue and it textually precedes the account of its more illustrious and well-known counterpart, the Menora, that is spelled out in Chapter 25 verses 31-40. Like these other two vessels that in our Parasha bracket it on either side, the Table is a golden affair, adorned and ornate. Like them as well, it is also functional. It is constructed to hold the "loaves of the show bread," although the exact nature of these loaves is not described in our Parasha. It is, in fact, in Sefer Vayikra Parashat Emor (Leviticus 24) that the characteristics of this unique bread are detailed, appropriately enough alongside a description of the pure oil that is needed to kindle the Menora:
God spoke to Moshe saying: Command the people of Israel and collect from them pure beaten olive oil for the lamp, to kindle lights continuously. Beyond the dividing curtain that shields the Ark, in the Tent of Meeting shall Aharon set up the light so that it burns from evening to morning before God continuously, it is an eternal statue for all of your generations. Upon the pure Menora shall he set up the lights, before God continuously.
You shall take fine flour and bake it into twelve loaves, and each loaf shall contain two tenths (of an efah). You shall place them in two stacks of six loaves upon the holy Table before God. You shall place pure frankincense alongside the stacks that shall serve as a memorial portion for the loaves, to be burned as a fire offering to God. On every Shabbat he shall arrange the loaves before God continuously, it shall be an eternal covenant from the people of Israel. The bread shall be for Aharon and for his sons and they shall consume it in a sanctified area, for it is holy of holies from among God's fire offerings, a statue forever (Vayikra 24:1-9).
It thus emerges that the purpose of the Table is to hold twelve loaves of bread, baked from the finest flour and arranged in two sets of six loaves each. These twelve loaves, "an eternal covenant from the people of Israel" presumably represent the twelve tribes, and they are to remain on the Table from one Shabbat to the next. That is to say that the Table is never to be bereft of bread, for when the old loaves are removed to be consumed by the kohanim, fresh loaves are immediately arranged on the Table to take their place. Also, there is an additional element to the rites, for upon the Table is also placed a container of fragrant frankincense that is ultimately burned upon the altar as a "memorial for the bread."
In addition to the Biblical text, the Rabbis have preserved a number of remarkable traditions concerning the loaves and the Table, and some of these are recounted in Talmud Bavli Tractate Menachot 94a-100b. The Mishna (96a) for instance, preserves a fascinating disagreement between Rabbi Yehuda and Rabbi Meir concerning the placement of the loaves upon the Table:
…the Table was 10 handbreadths long and 5 wide. The loaves were each 10 handbreadths long and 5 wide. They would place the length of loaves across the width of the Table and bend up 2 ½ handbreadths on either end so that the length of the loaves would exactly fill the width of the Table. This is the opinion of Rabbi Yehuda. Rabbi Meir, however, says that the Table was 12 handbreadths long and 6 wide. The loaves were each 10 handbreadths long and 5 wide. They would place the length of the loaves across the width of the Table and bend up 2 handbreadths on either side, and then leave a space of 2 handbreadths between he stacks so that the air might enter in between…
The disagreement of Rabbi Yehuda and Rabbi Meir involves larger issues such as the number of handbreadths that constitute the cubit measurement used to construct the holy vessels (5 handbreadths versus 6 handbreadths), and they also argue concerning the exact dimensions of the bent-up ends of the loaves (2 ½ handbreadths versus 2 handbreadths). They do, however, agree on one fundamental point: the preparation and placement of the loaves upon the Table highlight the fact that this vessel is not simply a neutral object that holds bread as a shelving unit might hold goods but rather it is nothing but a holder of the loaves that are expressly fashioned for it. In other words, the overall effect of the loaves placed upon the Table is one of a stand that is COMPLETELY filled with bread, there being no room on the Table for anything else. Every part of its surface area is covered with the loaves and these then extend in great stacks 6 loaves high! The loaves are baked in such a way so as to exactly fill the Table to capacity! How are we to understand the significance of this fact?
THE SPECIAL PLACE OF BREAD
In our culture as in most others, bread occupies a special and central place in the human diet. It is often referred to as the "staff of life" (see Vayikra 26:26; Tehillim 105:16; et al) and in a generic sense is sometimes even used in the Tanakh in place of the word "food" (see for instance Bereishit 3:19; 28:20; 47:12; et al). While bread can be prepared from different grains, and various human societies favor this grain or that, all breads are regarded as the staples that constitute the foundation of the food pyramid. The Table is of course housed in the Mishkan and placed specifically on its northern flank (Shemot 40:22). Spatially, it is opposite the Menora that is located to the south (Shemot 40:24), so that both of these vessels stand just beyond the dividing curtain that shields the Ark of the Covenant. The Mishkan is a building that constitutes the place of encounter with God; it provides the Israelites not only with a location in space to experience His presence, but also with potent symbols of God's ongoing care and concern. The Table of the Show Bread, then, is about inculcating a fundamental trust in God as the Provider and the Sustainer of physical existence. Our survival as material beings is first and foremost a function of our ability to secure basic sustenance; without a regular supply of nutritious food, we quickly wither and perish. But while many of us labor mightily under the assumption that we can guarantee our primary needs by dint of our power and skill, the Table indicates to us otherwise: we are able to endure and to prosper only because of God's ongoing intervention in providing for us. The twelve loaves of the Show Bread represent the twelve tribes of Israel, each of them sustained from on High by God's beneficence. By placing this Table within the confines of the Mishkan and piling it high with loaves of bread, loaves that remain on its surface at all times, we assert that God is the Guarantor of our physical survival, and the constant Sustainer of our physical lives.
As such, the Table's perfect analog in this equation is of course the Menora that stands just opposite to the south. As we have seen in past years, the Menora is the affirmation that God supplies and inspires our intellectual and spiritual needs and accomplishments as well, for the knowledge and wisdom that are symbolically associated with its pure and precious light are hereby presented as deriving from God. The binary message afforded by both of these vessels is thus singularly significant. The human being who can acknowledge the precious gift of physical life as well as the invaluable boon of intellectual potential is well on the way to leading a life of not only enhanced meaning, but also of more responsible and God-like behavior.
See the curious statement of Rabbi Yitzchak preserved in Talmud Bavli 25b concerning the direction of prayer: "One who desires to acquire wisdom should face south in prayer while one who desires to acquire wealth should face north. Let the sign be the Table to the north and the Menora to the south." While the Talmud goes on to reconcile this statement with the normative tradition of facing the land of Israel in prayer, what is significant for our purposes is the link that Rabbi Yitzchak draws between the Table and wealth on the one hand and the Menora and wisdom on the other. These are of course the "physical sustenance" and the "spiritual sustenance" spoken of above.

The Missing Golden Altar - Part 1
Chapter 3 Conclusion: Crossing the Yarden ֠The Theme of Passage


The Saulteaux Nation is comprised of 7 major clans the larger of which is the Bear Clan. This thesis examines the holistic philosophy of the Saulteaux world view and the oral teachings of the Bear Clan. The teachings, which emphasize the nature of healing and personal growth, were related by Elder Danny Musqua to myself from within the context of traditional Bear Clan ceremonies and practices. This thesis documents my journey to understand these teachings and in the process to arrive at a deeper understanding of self. This is done within the context of Bear Clan culture and within the context of my relationship with Elder Danny Musqua. This thesis relates my struggle to make meaning of these teachings on a personal level and how these teachings have affected my life. Narrative Inquiry is the methodology employed in this study. Through a reliance on narrative as the research methodology, the oral tradition of the Bear Clan and its traditional methods of knowledge transmission are honoured. The methodology utilized in this study is relatively unstructured in that no formal questioning process is utilized. Instead, it relies upon the relationship between the Elder/teacher and the son/learner in which to transmit knowledge. This process stresses the relationship between Danny and myself and emphasizes trust and respect as important elements of learning. In this relationship, knowledge was transmitted through participation in the sweatlodge, the learning lodge and through conversations with Danny. This approach to research respected the implicit nature of the oral tradition and allowed for me to make meaning of Danny's teachings in their original context and interpret them at a level appropriate for my own personal development. This thesis struggles to define traditional healing and the role that the healer, the one oppressed by illness and the spiritual realm play in the healing process. This thesis may prove valuable in educating and informing those who do not have an understanding of concepts of First Nations' healing. It may also serve as an invitation to all people, Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal, to expand their notions of healing or to search out a similar path in life.

I have a mini-horse, but I have never seen this before!
A coworker sent me this video and it's over a horse named Pinto that plays dead! This Facebook video has been seen more than 32 million times and its owner says Pinto plays dead all the time and eventually stands up after a couple minutes. She adds that she learned the play dead routine all on her own.
Hmmm.. that gives me an idea. I think I need to teach my horse to do that! LOL!


Today's guest post is by Mary Apesos.
As you plan your trip to a foreign country, you can look up all the attractions, hotels and restaurants you want to hit up, but it's not until you get there that you recognize all the nuances of a place. This is what I call the Unspoken Side. It's super fun to discover while you're there, but also great to know beforehand, so you can prepare and blend in with the locals.
I lived with a family as a student in Granada, Spain for four months and learned about the customs, language and culture very gradually ‐ it was kind of a sink or swim type experience. But, I'll give you a head start (YOU'RE WELCOME). Check out the top 12 things you should know before you travel to this beautiful city in Andalucía.
1. If you know anything about Granada, you'll know that it's gorgeous. The locals also know how beautiful it is; snow‐capped mountains surrounding a centuries old European city influenced by everyone from the Romans to the Moors…how could it not be? Therefore, never put down the city ‐ locals are incredibly proud.
visiting, you'll be able to go to a restaurant, but you definitely won't be able to enter any other stores, banks, etc. Everything closes down! Then, it's back to work/school.
3. Tapas, or small appetizers, are free when you purchase a drink at any bar. The drink doesn't have to be alcoholic ‐ Fanta counts! This is basically how I ate dinner every night. You'll hear a bunch of myths about how this tradition was started in Granada, but don't dwell on it too much ‐ just APPRECIATE the GLORY or free food.
4. Contrary to popular belief, you cannot drink alcohol in the streets. There is a designated legal drinking area outside called the Botellón and it's right near their version of Walmart called Hipercor.
5. Many stores end with an "ería," making it easier to find the correct place to purchase something. You'll see everything from the Fruteria (fruit stand), to the Chupetería (shots only bar). Don't worry, a Ferretería is not a place to purchase Ferrets, but rather a hardware store.
6. People start going out at midnight or 1 a.m. through 7‐8 a.m. on weekends. Mind you, partying in Granada different…classier you could say. There's more salsa dancing than binge‐drinking. Either way, you'll need Siesta the day before and the morning after.
7. You must try a Tetería. A place to have delicious Tea, pastries and even hookah. These hotspots are part of the Arab influence on Granada, and are a great way to spend a few hours on a rainy day.
8. Everyone dresses up before leaving the house. Don't look like crap if you want to fit in.
9. Use gloves to pick up produce at grocery stores ‐ they think it's unsanitary to touch all the apples before you choose one (BECAUSE IT IS).
10. You cannot escape the jamón. There is ham everywhere, including hanging from the ceilings. It's a delicacy in the area and many families have their own ham leg in the house.
11. Everything takes a little bit longer. You definitely should never be in a rush. Granadinos are always at least 15 minutes late. SO FASHIONABLE.
12. There are some weird creepy performers…don't give them any money if they hustle you. Nothing dangerous, just annoying.

– Nothing worth having comes easy, but ezbuy makes it easy for you!
It has been a purposeful 2 years ever since our transition from 65daigou to our current global marketplace, ezbuy. Initially starting out in a humble apartment in Singapore, we have since expanded to warehouses situated in China, USA, Taiwan, and Malaysia just to ensure smoother processes and faster shipment for our customers. Our strong belief to bring convenience to our customers held the co-founders together and brought ezbuy to what it is today.
– We make what's not easy, easy for you!
Prime It, Only at RM8.80!
Finding a solution to mitigate high shipping costs was our biggest concern. With that, we announced our Prime Membership Program on the same day as our transition to ezbuy – an all-exclusive pass which empowers our customers with the knowledge to shop EASILY.
Prime Membership allows you to ship anything– regardless of how many, heavy or bulky your parcel is at a fixed shipping rate of only RM8.80. An amazing feat considering that it already costs RM15 just to ship a 500g parcel from USA to Malaysia. How affordable!
Prime's fixed shipping rate benefits not only those who purchase heavy and bulky items such as furniture, but also if you want a peace of mind when shopping. Worry no more about unexpected or high shipping fees, as a Prime member you can enjoy savings up to 80% compared to shipping via non-Prime.
With such ease and convenience, it is no wonder that Prime has garnered a lot of interest and positive response from our customers since its conception. Since the launch of our Prime RM8.80 flat rate shipping membership, we have helped more than 10,000 customers to save an average amount of RM800 per month in shipping fees.
We constantly seek ways to improve Prime, and are always listening to your suggestions for improvement. As we speak, over 100,000 Prime products are being added into our platform every day in order to provide you a greater variety of products and much cheaper shipping rates.
That's not all with Prime.

EzCollection– Friendly Neighbourhood Collection Center!
With various delivery and self collection methods already available in Malaysia, it would seem like a reasonable amount of pick-up locations for customers to collect their parcels. Even so, we haven't stopped there and kept our mission in mind and sourced for even better and convenient logistics systems.
We took it further and launched ezCollection in Nov 2017, collaborating with malls, supermarket & shop owners to enable you to collect your ezbuy parcels at their shop locations anytime during opening hours. This brought our total existing collection points to 48 nationwide. Other than giving you a greater selection in choosing a collection point, ezCollection also enhances your experience so you don't have to rush in order to meet the stipulated timeslots for collections.
Our co-founders first started ezbuy with this convenience in mind – to reduce the cost of parcel delivery (as they often cost more than the parcel's value) and to transfer this savings back onto our customers. As the first to come out with road-trip collection points in Malaysia, and now ezCollection, you no longer have to worry about accessibility to your parcels when it will always be close in proximity to your homes!

MUSIC INDUSTRY UNITES FOR #LETTHEMUSICPLAY CAMPAIGN
On Thursday 2nd July, the UK music industry comes together under the banner of #LetTheMusicPlay in order to highlight the crisis faced by the live music sector. The purpose of the campaign is to make as loud a noise as possible to ensure the Government gets the message that the UK live music industry must be protected.
The first stage of the campaign is a letter to secretary of state for DCMS Oliver Dowden which now has signatures from hundreds of artists including Coldplay, Ed Sheeran, Lewis Capaldi, Take That, Sam Smith, Beverley Knight, Eric Clapton, Muse etc, alongside thousands of crew.
But the main event needs everyone to get involved. We need to protect our venues, our workforce, and the infrastructure and companies that make up this business. Please share photos/ videos on social media of the last gig you went to using the hashtag #LetTheMusicPlay
The Live music industry added £4.5bn to the economy in 2019 and supported 210,000 jobs across the country.

For as long as religion has existed, people have had the need to build structures, special places where they would praise their gods. Yet, we tend to destroy God's creations to make churches. We cut trees for timber, break mountains for rock, dig up clay for bricks. However, there is one church in New Zealand that is built with God's own building blocks.
It's a living, breathing structure, made of trees and hedge manipulated in such way to resemble the churches we're used to seeing. It buckles with the wind and changes colors with seasons and I can't think of another place on the face of the Earth that's more divine than this.

To obtain a visual and quantitative verification of the appropriateness of one, two, and three degree of freedom models for motion, an interactive system was developed for the independent adjustment and definition of multiple degree-of-freedom linkage systems representative of human leg and arm motion. The result is a kinematic structure definition program with which the user interactively builds the kinematic model. The program has capacity for unlimited rotary degrees of freedom.

Buddy Girl is a sweet 6-year-old German shepherd mix. She's been a loving 'fur child' and member of her family since she was 6 weeks old. Her 'dad' Rudolph is a single parent, struggling to make ends meet, raising and home schooling his young daughter Mary. In early March, Buddy Girl stopped eating, became very lethargic and began having intestinal problems. Following initial treatment at BirchBark Associate Member hospital Harden Ranch Veterinary, Buddy Girl wasn't improving. She was transferred to Associate Member Pacific Veterinary Specialists and Emergency Service. There she could be monitored 24/7, stabilized and further diagnostics could be performed. Buddy Girl was diagnosed with diabetes and a form of diabetes Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) was suspected. She was a very sick little girl. BirchBark Foundation was able to provide the funds to keep Buddy Girl hospitalized for several days, get her treated and stabilized and on the right regimen of medications for her diabetes. She's doing great now. She will always need to be watched and treated for her diabetes, but with proper diet and health management she has a positive prognosis and is now back in her loving home. For more information on diabetes visit http://tinyurl.com/o5b59pd.
Where to begin with Buddy Girl—She was given to us at our home in Bronson, Michigan by a young newspaper kid. She was so meek and quite when we first saw her. As soon as my daughter Mary caught sight of her, the two were inseparable. Buddy girl found her way into our hearts and became an extra 'daughter' to me and Mary's best friend. Buddy Girl would watch over Mary as they both played house, camping in Mary's room with a tent set up and playing dress-up with Mary's wardrobe—of course cut special to let Buddy Girl's tail out. Buddy soon blossomed out into her role as a fur child/daughter/friend. She'd go everywhere with us in our small, rural town in Michigan. As a single dad the love of both Mary and Buddy Girl is unexplainable. Even into her young phase of life, as we made our way to California, Buddy Girl has provided a solidifying force that binds us together as a family, always smiling and eager to participate in any family outing. I really have to wonder why they called them dogs, which when you turn that name around, spells GOD. As I write this story for your readers, it brings tears to my eyes to know that Buddy Girl was so sick and we could have lost her. Buddy Girl made her way into my heart and Mary's. She's my fur child blessed to us from above to solidify the cement in our small family with her love. Words are not enough to convey our sincere appreciation for your support. BirchBark Foundation has given us back our loving Buddy Girl and my daughter Mary Grace and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts. God Bless you and all that you do.


The country will be a lot older in the future than it is right now – thanks to 10,000 Baby Boomers turning 65 every day. Remember how this generation drove the U.S. economy since their infancy in the 1950s? This time around, the healthcare industry will benefit. The 65+ population will double and 85+ will triple in the coming years. And the longer we live, the more likely it is that we'll need care. By 2024, national healthcare expenditures are projected to climb to $5.43 trillion, or about 20% of GDP.
Here are three firms set to capitalize on these trends, and dish increasing demographic-driven dividends to their shareholders. These stocks are good long-term buys no matter what happens between now and this November: CVS Health Corp (CVX), UnitedHealth Group Inc (UNH) and Ventas, Inc. (VTR).


A number of changes have occurred behind the scenes at OSS Index. These changes provide a larger, richer, and expanding collection of vulnerabilities along with new integrations and plans for increased ecosystem coverage and capabilities. With these updates come some changes that may impact you if you are using the OSS Index API or open source tools.
If you have written a tool which uses the v2.0 (or earlier) API, then you will need to migrate this code to the v3.0 API. The legacy API will stay running in the meanwhile, but it the database is no longer being maintained and the API will eventually be decommissioned. The new database has all the same vulnerabilities (and more!) that you can access using the legacy API.
OSS Index has a number of integrations that are using the v2.0 API. These integrations will be updated over the coming weeks to use the v3.0 API and should all work in the same manner they do now. Integrations which use vulnerability IDs will need to be updated, as the new OSS Index database has new UUID based vulnerability IDs which are intended to be future-proof.

The Sugihara Survivor Committee and Temple Emeth held a "Prayerful Assembly" in support of the Japanese people who are experiencing loss and pain due to the earthquake and tsunami of March 11, 2011. The assembly was held in Temple Emeth's Japanese Memorial Garden, and was an opportunity for members of Boston's Japanese and Jewish communities to offer reflection and show support. Rabbi Alan Turetz, Consul General of Japan Takeshi Hikihara and Deputy Consul General of Israel Ronit Nudelman Perl were among the speakers.

Rabbi Golan Ben-Chorin organizes forum for Palestinians and Israelis to share stories of losing loved ones.
The Jewish Advocate December 25, 2009 Palestinian, Israeli share stories of losing loved ones By Elise Kigner, Advocate Staff They speak around the world as part of reconciliation campaign. It may seem hard to believe that they were in the same room, let alone hugging. But last week, Robi Damelin and Mazen Faraj, an Israeli and a Palestinian who each have lost family members in the Israeli Palestinian conflict, spoke to a group of Americans about choosing reconciliation over revenge. Faraj, 32, grew up in the Daheisheh Refugee Camp in Bethlehem. In April 2002, he said, his 62-year-old father was shot and killed by an Israeli soldier as he went out to buy food. Israeli Defense Forces and Palestinians were battling near the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem. Faraj said that he knew others who had dealt with similar tragedies by choosing the "violent way." That was not his way, he told an audience of 100 at a talk last week hosted by the Center for Violence Prevention and Recovery at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. "I will never choose revenge." Faraj and Damelin are ...


I want to express my sincere thanks to all of you. It is amazing to see my community come around me in support over these last two months.
This Christmas time was a different one for Kirstie and I as it was our first without my Mom. Although new and difficult territory for us, we are able to venture through it together. We are doing well and still very much adjusting. It is true what they say about holidays being a harder time without a loved one. Your support of myself and my family is still so greatly appreciated - thank you. Over this past while I have been able to be a part of some great things. It usually takes time to build up trust with teenagers, and since September I have been doing just that. As a reward, I am beginning to see openness and vulnerability.
For example, I had one girl open up to me while at the youth care workers room at Walnut Grove Secondary School. Prior to this, she was incredibly reserved and quiet, to the point where I was sure social anxieties contributed to her not being able to talk at all. We were able to talk and connect about her family, school, and life. As we were drawing on a white board together she went on to say, "this is the most fun I'm going to have all day". This struck me in a few different ways. The first was that I was glad to have been able to bring a smile and joy to someone who had been having a rough week. Secondly, I realized that her comment was a loaded statement, knowing that school and home were places she couldn't necessarily be herself.
At our after school art club, Art Addicts, I've had a number of great conversations with our youth. I have been getting to know them over the last few months and some are beginning to share their stories with me. I find myself equally heart broken and blown away at their strength. One student briefly opened up to me, sharing that Christmas is not a good time for him because he has to spend it with a family who disagrees with his choices and lifestyle. He would rather spend it working as much as possible. Having a space that fosters deeper growth and communication is such a blessing for us. It is a safe environment where we are able to practically intercede on their behalf. In this case, interceding looks as simple as being able to take him out for a meal to connect and give a glimpse about the positive aspects of the holiday season.
This is all the tip of the iceberg. By being involved at WGSS I am able to work alongside the counseling staff, be a part of a behavioral boys safety group, and connect with new faces every lunch hour.
Working with the team at Langley Youth Unlimited allows me to be where the students are at - in their schools, out for lunches with them, at the movies. This affords me opportunities to invest positively in their lives. There's a lot of hurt and pain in our youth, but also great joy in being able to see them make positive decisions and changes in their lives.
That's all for now, thanks for journeying with me.

Fuqua Footnotes :: Robert Goes to Washington!
I returned today from DC where I participated in the 44th annual March for Life. I was in Washington to attend the 2nd annual Evangelicals for Life conference, hosted by the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission and Focus on the Family. I was honored to have the event organizers request the use of my recent video documenting a refugee's reunion with his family at DFW airport, after being stuck in a refugee camp for 4 years, while his wife and 3 children were given asylum in Texas.
The video introduced a panel last night, discussing faith-based response to the refugee crisis, ironically only a few hours after Trump signed his controversial refugee ban at the Pentagon across town, surrounded by his military advisors who had already advised him that the executive action would fuel efforts to radicalize moderate Muslims.
These moderate Muslims happen to be the same ones with whom God has given us an incredible window of opportunity for the gospel, both in our own neighborhoods and abroad. Whether you agree or not with Trump's advisors who warned that his actions would jeopardize our nation's security and compromise our military endeavors on the front lines in the war on terror, sadly the fact remains, his actions Friday have a detrimental effect on the war for the hearts and souls of those lost and dying having never heard the Truths of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the ONLY hope for the nations. (Matthew 12:21) Do we stop trying to reach them with this hope? Absolutely not! It just means it may get harder.
For those of you who've followed and supported our work with orphans for the past 20 years, perhaps you're wondering why Robert seems to have waxed political. Well admittedly, it can be a fine line, but if you'll allow me a minute or two to hear my heart, I'll try my best to spare you the political rhetoric. I assume you can already tell from what you've read that the current refugee ban and related global fallout, strikes a bit too close to home for me.
I hope you can also take away from this a better understanding of the correlation of our two-decades-old orphan ministry and our more recent involvement with refugee outreach. Ann and I find the two causes inseparable since the Bible rarely separates them. Almost every time in Scripture that we're called to minister to the orphan, God also includes in that call the widow and the "stranger", most commonly referring to immigrant or refugee.
You surely noticed in the photo above, the sign I carried in Friday's March for Life. Needless to say, I got a wide variety of looks and double-takes from the pro-life marchers. Many who were thrilled to see the sentiment expressed that's held by so many evangelical pro-lifers, and others for whom they were confronted with a category they'd never considered. Of course the response on my facebook page was quite similar.
To address friends who just didn't have a category for the idea of refugees being a sanctity of life issue, I wrote the following response on Facebook.
Begin my response: I'm obviously missing something here. I don't see what you're seeing in this to disassociate these issues.
My guess is we're seeing this from two differing world-views. Being in Washington this week, it was clear there are a number of different camps in the pro-life movement. I shared the street for the march with predominately Catholics, praying the Hail Mary and singing Ave Maria as they marched. Then there were those the Catholics think of as "evangelicals" who stood in the streets with megaphones telling them they're going to hell. Then there were thousands of us evangelicals who stood with the Catholics for the cause. Then there were the pro-life women who were denied the opportunity to march the week before for women's rights. I even saw some marchers with a sign that read, "Gays for Pro-Life". With all that diversity, the one thing we shared was our concern for life in the womb. We all stand together against denying those innocent lives the right to leave the womb, alive. We stand together against abortion.
So brother, are these the two different camps we find ourselves in, not being able to see the other side of the issue? Maybe. If so, can you help me see how refugees aren't an imago Dei issue, the crux of what sanctity of life is all about? Clearly, I'm not even taking up the argument of whether Muslim refugees are created in the image of God. If we're on different sides of that argument then surely you've already stopped reading.
For me this is not a political issue. To a degree, it does divide along political lines, but it is absolutely a biblical issue for me. A matter of principle as a believer in God, in the gospel, in the imago Dei.
I see the political divide as this. The Republican party platform, and very clearly the Trump platform, as it relates to pro-life, focuses on abortion. For much of the Republican pro-life platform in recent history, pro-life concerns virtually end when the baby leaves the birth canal. For those few Democrat pro-lifers, of which I'm not one, though I do know one or two, they attempt to focus their pro-life concerns on both sides of the birth canal. I won't even take up their arguments here. I'm not a Democrat. You can argue that with them. But, this is at least in part, why many of us evangelical Republicans separated ourselves from the preponderance of our evangelical brothers and sisters who supported Trump, because we see pro-life as bigger than just an abortion issue.
To further oversimplify the nuanced distinction I'm wrestling with here, in some ways it boils down to the difference between anti-abortion as a movement, and pro-life as a movement. Liberals refuse to refer to us as anything but anti-abortion. And perhaps for proper cause. In my opinion, if we are to earn any other label than anti-abortion, we must focus our concerns for sanctity of life on more than the unborn. The Bible clearly does, so why wouldn't we?
I've never had one of my videos go viral before, but one of the outcomes of a video being seen by literally millions is the thousands of responses by viewers as they comment, tweet, or repost. I haven't had time to read the thousands of comments, but of the hundreds I've read, the typical responses were focused on viewers' experience glimpsing the heart of God for the refugee, resulting in worship. As you watch this, perhaps some of you for the first time, I hope and pray you'll be drawn into worship of our good, Good Father. I hope seeing this will validate my assertion that this is not about politics. This is about the image of God and His call on our lives to live out the gospel, regardless.

These Trademark and Logo Usage Guidelines ("Guidelines") set forth the rules established by Hobie Brands International, L.C., Hobie Cat Company, and its affiliates ("Hobie") for using or referring to Hobie's brands, trademarks, product and service names, logos and slogans (collectively, the "Hobie Trademark(s)"). A complete list of all of the Hobie Trademarks is available at https://www.hobie.com/ip/. They apply to all Hobie companies and affiliates worldwide and to various business partners of Hobie who may be authorized by Hobie to use any of the Hobie Trademarks in connection with their activities on behalf of Hobie (e.g., resellers, developers, customers, advertising agencies, consultants, professional writers and editors, licensees and other third parties making reference to Hobie Trademarks). Hobie reserves the right to modify these Guidelines as it deems necessary or appropriate, including by written agreement or license with third parties.
If you are a party to an agreement with Hobie, you may be subject to additional restrictions. For example, if you are an authorized reseller of Hobie products and have been provided with special trademark usage guidelines with your agreement, please follow those guidelines. If your agreement with Hobie does not provide usage guidelines, then follow these Guidelines.
Hobie considers its trademarks to be an important part of the brand identity for the entire company, and it is important that such trademarks not be altered in any way. In order to ensure that Hobie maintains consistent brand recognition, we require that all our companies, affiliates, and business partners adhere to the Guidelines when using the Hobie Trademarks.
Every Hobie Trademark should be followed by an appropriate noun consisting of the Hobie product or service that is branded with the mark. Hobie Trademarks are adjectives and may not be used as nouns, or alone as a shorthand way of identifying a product or service. Hobie Trademarks should be used as an adjective describing a product or service of Hobie. Examples of proper use are as follows: Hobie Cat® sailboat, Hobie? regatta, Mirage Eclipse® pedal board, Mirage® pedal kayak, MirageDrive® propulsion system. The only exception to this requirement is when the "Hobie" name is used as our company name as opposed to an identifier of one of our products or services (see Guidelines I.C. below).
Hobie works hard to build customer goodwill, and it uses its trademarks to harness that goodwill. Please use the marks as they are designed and intended. Since a trademark is not a noun, it must never be used in possessive or plural forms and should never be used as a verb or a pun.
The "Hobie" name is not only a trademark used to identify our products and services, it also serves as our company name. When using the "Hobie" name as a reference to the company, "Hobie" may be used as a noun and no ™ or ® symbol is needed. For example, the sentence "Hobie announced a new line of products" would be an appropriate use.
Trademark ownership is attributed in two ways, with the use of a trademark symbol (™ or ®) after the trademark, and with a trademark legend, usually found at the end of a document in legible text following the copyright notice. Assuming that your company has the right to use a Hobie Trademark, it should always be accompanied by a proper trademark symbol and legend.
a) On products, product labels, and packaging; use an appropriate symbol in each prominent use of the trademark.
b) In every other context, use an appropriate symbol in both the first prominent use of the trademark (in headlines, banners, etc.) and in the first use in the text of body copy.
c) Always use the appropriate symbol incorporated into any of Hobie Trademark logos.
The trademark legend is the legal text that identifies Hobie's Trademarks. The legend should be printed in legible type and in a location typically used for copyright and other legal notices. For example, the legend may be printed at the end of a document, on the back of a package, on the front cover of documentation, or on the bottom of a web page.
Unless you have an agreement with Hobie that indicates otherwise, use the Hobie legend in any material referencing more than one Hobie Trademark. Please note that third-party licensees will often be legally obligated by license to use a Hobie Trademark legend that also indicates that the Hobie Trademarks are used under license.
[Describe all Hobie Trademarks, logos, product names, service names, program names, and slogans that are referred to or displayed] are trademarks or registered trademarks of Hobie Brands International, L.C. in the United States and other countries.
Even when accurately describing a relationship with Hobie or support of products or services of Hobie, third parties should not assume that they have the right to use any Hobie logo except as specifically provided by a license or other written agreement with Hobie.
Resellers of Hobie products may never alter or modify the Hobie corporate logo or Hobie Trademarks that are affixed to or appear on the Hobie products they resell. Similarly, re-logoing (replacing a Hobie Trademark with the reseller's logo or mark) and co-logoing (adding the reseller's logo or mark to the Hobie product) are not permitted in the absence of a written agreement with Hobie.
Please report any infringement of Hobie Trademarks to Tricia Tarkington at ttarkington@hobie.com Please provide as much detail as possible regarding the identity of the possible infringer as well as the suspected infringing use.
For information on logo artwork, including Hobie corporate colors and instructions on use of Hobie logos on various background and in various formats, or have any other questions regarding logo usage, contact the Hobie Intellectual Property Department in the manner described below.

Are We Officially Inhuman? Let's Debate!
sneha.bhattacharjee@timesgroup.com
Publish Date: Feb 3 2017 1:27PM
Updated Date: Feb 3 2017 6:20PM
A spurt of viral social media posts has laid bare a very pertinent fact in front of our eyes...
Trust us, we will not burden you with a heavy story like this on a weekend if it wasn't required. However, there are times when it becomes absolutely necessary to debate/discuss/introspect/question our sanity as humans. Read about these incidents that have kept our viral life busy and then join the discussion?
A college-going student died in Bengaluru on Thursday after he was hit by a bus. But it was not the bus that killed him. A crowd had gathered around the boy when he was mowed down by the bus. However, instead of helping him rush to the hospital, the crowd was busy filming him and clicking his pictures. By the time, he reached the hospital, he was dead. This is not the first incident wherein public apathy towards the victim cost him or her a life.
In another incident, a man - rushing his pregnant wife to the hospital - in his car scarped an audi in Delhi-NCR region. As a result, the driver of the Audi — a lady herself — pulled the car keys and refused to give it to the man despite his repeated pleas. Forget that, she even refused when the police tried to intervene. After a mob cornered her, she threw away the keys. Mind you, she did not handover the keys.
Last week, an elderly woman and her differently-abled daughter bore the ire of an angry mob in a town in Bengal, who thought them to be child-lifters. This, despite the woman having spent more than six decades of her life in the city. What's worse, the mob was so angry at them that they stripped and molested the daughter in front of her mother. The woman tried to plead but her pleas fell on deaf ears. So, was it that the woman looked a foreigner more than an Indian that caused the mob fury?
These are only a few incidents. There might be many more that go unreported. Now that social media has taken centrestage in everyone's life, such news aren't hidden anymore. Remember that medical college student from Tamil Nadu, who threw a puppy from the terrace? Or the infosys employee from Chennai, who was murdered in the wee hours on a railway platform, and bled to death as none of the people around offered to help?
What is more important — to shoot a video or to save a life? What would you have done in such a situation? What is the reason behind us being so indifferent? Why is it that our first instict doesn't guide us to help someone in need?What stop us from helping someone who is on the verge of death? Why do we not ignore a small damage done to our things and see the real reason behind such an act? What do you think is the need of the hour? Share your thoughts in the comments section
Emima Thangapandi PADUA HIGH SCHOOL-MANKHURD
I think our first instict doesn''t guide us to help someone in need because now a days when we share on social networks we get lots of likes and shares.We just think that someone else will go and help and we will just shoot it.When everybody thinks like that nobody helps the person in need.I think there should a law that we should not take videos when someone needs help.
T.Anudeep Chakravarthi Sree Narayana Vidya Bhavan
there should have a law we should not take video anyone needs help
If I would have been in such a situation, then I would have provided aid. But today this obvious fact that saving a life is more important than shooting a video is not obvious anymore. I feel that the people have become too selfish and inhuman. They strongly feel that they will waste their so-called precious time (which in true sense is wasted by them on phones, silly talks etc.) in helping others which they feel can be used in any other productive work.
How can we forget that the policy of mankind is to put the responsibility on others and escape. It is the habit of the Indian people to think that the impact they make on the problem is negligible.There lies the whole problem. Why do we always expect others to come up with an aid? Also the politics in social media has made the things worse. In order to get likes and comments, one stoops to the level of shooting someone''s video who has met with a bitter or inhuman experience?
The need of the hour is to do all that we can to wipe a tear to provide a cup of joy to plant a tree to resist the temptation of littering the roads to follow all the traffic rules etc. If all of us will take careful actions ensuring all''s welfare, then all the ills in the world will automatically disappear. We will have to be proactive in taking action. We have to stop being narcissistic.
Quite shocked after reading these inhuman stories... how can the people show much of ignorance and be so unkind... this is not at all accepted... it shows how much illiterate we are actually....

hiii nice story

There must be a law for this story. I dont like inhuman stories.

I think our first move is to help someone in need not to share videos on social networking sites.
RIYA MITTAL Convent of Jesus and Mary
That''s the problem with India.There are many more stories like this which come in the newspaper. Mere photos and videos have become more important than someone''s life .People will realise their mistakes only when something like this happens to THEM.Today''s world has really become very selfish.

I think our first instict doesn''''t guide us to help someone in need because now a days when we share on social networks we get lots of likes and shares.
Hiya Kilam global indian internatonal school
In today''s world of professional cameras, social media and selfies, people use others as toys and love their own devices. We humans have forgotten to live in the real world, rather they live in the virtual world. These incidents show that people have stopped caring and being kind to other people. We always talk about bringing peace and sympathy to the world. But how is this possible if so many such incidents are happening across the globe? Humans really need some lessons.
Siddhi Gothivrekar S M SHETTY H SCH - POWAI
the need of the hour is to understand the humanity factor that we keep mentioning now and again but try to inculcate within ourselves . it is a true shame that we, being of the same breed dislike others so much that we don''t bother to help someone who is in danger . i feel the we have some duties which we should follow towards public welfare . i am in support of humanity and i strongly take a stand on this note of mine.
Navneet Kishan.S NAGARJUNA VIDYANIKETAN
It is most important to save a person than to shoot a video or a photo, if I was in such a situation I would call an ambulance for treatement.The reason behind people being so inhuman is because of the likes and comments they get on social networking sites.People must have faith in humanity, not be selfish and help people than to shoot a photo or a video to upload in these social networking sites depicting their pain for silly comments or likes.


Those who have never seen Chance The Rapper show off his acting chops now have a chance in his first feature-length film, Slice, which is now available for download on iTunes and all other digital platforms as of today (Sept. 11).
The Chicago MC was cast as werewolf Dax Lycander in the movie which filmmaker Austin Vesely calls a "pizza horror." It revolves around solving the murders of pizza delivery boys with a few peculiar, comedic twists. Fans will get a chance to check out Chance's parkour skills, which he claims he did without the help of a stunt double during a live Q&A after Slice's world premiere at Chicago's ArcLight Cinemas last night (Sept. 10), after which the film screened for one night only at select theaters nationwide. He also compared the film—which stars Atlanta actress, Zazie Beetz—to the lively works of famed directors Quentin Tarantino and Spike Lee.
Vesely and Bennett have worked together on a number of music videos since Chano's debut mixtape 10 Day, including "Juice" and the Saba-assisted "Angels." They also consider one another best friends. "He's always been one of my biggest supporters," Chance shared.
Though fans of Chance have longed for him to get back on screen after his acting debut in the short film Mr. Happy, it's best you don't hold your breath. "Just being honest, I don't like shooting movies," he admitted. "I don't like being on a set or in a trailer—Austin knows this to be true. And it's very different than the way that I execute my music after it's written. But the reward, the finalized product, is always something that I thoroughly enjoy for a long time afterwards. And so I think if I do end up doing anymore cinema, it'll probably be a long, long time from now." Take a look at the full Q&A on Twitter.
Slice, which Chance says has a "cool ending," can be bought or rented online. You can also hear his voice in Trolls 2 when it releases in spring 2020.
Watch the trailer for Slice below.


Budapest, April 13, 2011 (MTI-ECONEWS) – The University of Debrecen (E Hungary) and the Hungarian Academy of Sciences Biology Centre in Szeged (SE Hungary) could patent new chemical compounds for the treatment of diabetes as the result of a HUF 500m research project, Debrecen University Chemistry Department chairman Tamas Patonay told MTI.
The 20-member research group started the project to develop active ingredients for type 2 diabetes medicines that have fewer side effects in the summer of 2009, Mr Patonay said. Thus far, three compounds have shown positive results in laboratory mice, and a fourth compound is currently being tested, he added.
The consortium wants to patent at least one compound, but perhaps more, when the project winds up in the summer, he said.
The researchers, including four from abroad, won a HUF 425m European Union grant for the project. Self-financing and support from drugmakers covered the remaining HUF 75m cost.


Even when i check the box 'read only' in each field, same result.
I understand it's probably intended.
But is there any way to bypass that without use of field renderer?
Have you looked in your component pack ("tfg" Component Pack)? What is a field type "COMBO" and what are its properties? Is there a reason you're using the popup within a template field? Is it possible to have the popup open via clicking on a button instead?
A button would be very confusing as will not blend with the rest of field editor.
Karen - Field type "COMBO" is the field type of the stock Skuid template field. The template field provides an "edit" option using either the default popup or a custom popup. Dave is using all stock features here, nothing custom from what I can tell.
1) Add a TFG popup controller to the custom popup and use the OnOpen snippet option. In the snippet, you'll want to look for your field editor (give it a unique id) and change it's mode to read. You can use the article at https://community.skuid.com/skuid/topics/_edit_mode_button for guidance on how to accomplish.
2) Use a standard field (any field will do) and write a custom renderer that takes care of displaying a popup, etc. You would use the create createPopupFromPopupXML api to accomplish this.
Barry, thanks for your great ideas on how to help Dave with this!
Dave, hope one of the solutions Barry proposed works for you.
Like Barry suggested, I will also mark this an an idea for the team to consider for a future release. Community, vote it up if this is something you would also like to see!!!


Here's ToyLib that are libraries to allow any gamescript to gave money to other AIs that are toys or eyes candy AI, allowing them to stay alive.
Right now of course no GS support that, and no AIs too, but with the libs any AIs can run and ask money to a GS that handle that.
The key is to implement this, the AIs just need to add the lib and the GS just need to add the GS version of the lib.
Done that because i get bore streetcars get out of money and collapse, while i could implement this into my gamescript (well, ok only awards as it's the only i have done), building libs will allow any GS to gave that feature, so you could have a nocargoal or transportgoal (Zuu if you read this) or your favorite GS to play with, but still have your little toy AI keep doing their work. Isn't that nice, having both of the two worlds?
So ToyLib is 4 parts : ToyLib for GS, ToyLib for AI, a simple test AI, and a test GS (that i will upload to bananas), as it do nothing, yes, nothing by itself, but use the lib so its only work is providing money. Some users may wish play with a "no GS" stock openttd but still allow the toys AI to not collapse.
The libs use SCP to communicate with the AIs and avoid anyone use it to cheat for money. So only AIs can ask money, and only ones using the libs. If i see AI that aren't for toys/eyes candy... purpose using it to cheat, i will add a blacklist in it, as right now, any AI using the lib is allow to ask money (yeah, i might be foul, but i trust AI authors). GS can use a function to enable/disable giving money, so if the GS author add the option, server admins should still keep their trust on your script.
The libs are made to handle SCP for you, so SCP usage is abstract to anyone not knowing SCP, i've done the implementation as easy and minimal as i could. (Look at the samples given to see how it's easy).
The gamescript part of the lib have more functions for gamescript, i highly encourage GS authors to support the GSToyLib.MoneyHandling function that will allow or disallow the lib to sent money as option to the user. See the GSToyLibHelper for an example implementation.
I have add a function to output stats of companies that get money from your GS (see GSToyLib.LogStats), server admin might enjoy having the option to use that function.
