Hundstrasse Top 5 Gaming Experiences… 2021?
Two things might strike you as strange about the title. The first is that I've gone with 'Gaming Experiences'. Not 'Top 5 of the Year', not 'Best Releases of the Year', but my own personal best experiences. In recent years I've really leant in to my pre-existing predilection to retro gaming and with that comes both old games and crucially revisits of old games. The list I keep of all the games that I've played during the year (for this exact blog post) contains more and more asterix'ed entries indicating that I've technically played the game before. So this year I decided to say that anything from the list of games I've played during the year can make the cut: new title, old title, first playthrough, revisit, or just a comfy run through of a much loved classic.
The second curiosity probably had you rolling your eyes at another classic patented Hundstrasse typo, but no, that's correct, this is my 2021 list because I never actually got around to posting my top 5 last year and posting the top 5 from this year felt somehow dishonest before I'd even had the decency to wash my hands of my 2021 blogging obligations. So I dug out last years list and decided to finally compile the top 5 gaming experiences I had back when … heck, I can't think of anything particularly memorable about 2021. Let's face it, it just felt like the director's cut version of 2020. Whatever, here is the official 'Top 5 Hundstrasse Gaming Experiences of 2021':

Resident Evil: Dead Aim – Survivor Bias
Just recently I did something that I thought as pretty cool… and I don't say that lightly, I rarely find anything I do 'cool'. But this was really a little bit cool, and if you follow me on Twitter you may already know what I'm going to talk about. Oh yes, I'm talking about the 'Zapstrasse!'. A little while ago I had an idea of how you could fool a Playstation G-Con (or G-Con 2 for PS2 in this case) style light gun in to thinking it's looking at a CRT TV and make it playable on a modern flatscreen. Unlike many of my other random ideas, I followed through on this one and built a proof-of-concept prototype to see if the idea worked. And it kinda does. I mean there are problems and the current version isn't super stable, but yeah, the idea worked.
… But I've already given the technical rundown of that if you're interested.
No, this is about the next bit, the bit that made me want to do this in the first place, the bit where I got to put it to the test on a game that I haven't played through since it was a new release. I used the 'Zapstrasse!' to go back and play one of the often forgotten Resident Evil Games; Resident Evil: Dead Aim.

Resident Evil 3: The Resident Evil 3 Perspective
This Article Contains Spoilers… likely for both the original Resident Evil 3: Nemesis ('99) and the 2020 Remake. You have been warned!
Late to the party as ever I've been in a bit of a Resident Evil hankering type of mood recently; which is not a mood I'm unfamiliar with. So whilst everyone with a PS5 or beefy enough PC to handle it has been exploring a certain Village, I finally got around to picking up and playing last year's big Resi-offering; the remake of Resident Evil 3. Sitting as a direct sequel to the previous years remake of Resident Evil 2, the REMake3 (yes, I'm going with that shorthand) is mechanically and visually very similar to its predecessor but offers something quite different in the gameplay department.
Now, honestly I finally put the REMake3 down a couple of weeks ago, but I really wanted to digest the game that I'd just played through twice in a row, something virtually unheard of for me, before I publicly spoke about it. Eventually I settled on doing pretty much what I did with the RE2Make and sidestep all the regular review nonsense that so many other have covered to consider how it compares to he source material; in short, is the REMake3 a good remake of Resident Evil 3: Nemesis ('99)?

The REMake is the Pinnacle of Remakes, So Should Capcom Just Stop Doing Them?
I haven't played the recent reamake of Resident Evil 3… I probably will, but for now it's not too high on my 'to-play' list. What I do know about it is that it looks visually stunning and gameplay reports have generally been good, but it is nonetheless still receiving a mixed response from the community. For me, the more action heavy focus has dampened my enthusiasm. What I have played recently is the REMake (AKA the Remake of 'Resident Evil' that was originally released for the Gamecube) in HD on Switch. It's a game that I've played before, but a little while back it was on sale and I really just wanted to jump in to something familiar. Despite its age, the gradual journey through the Spencer estate has never looked so good and as a game it still holds up after all these years. It's also one of the few remakes that's almost unanimously considered to be an improvement over the original release. It almost seems as thought Capcom did the impossible with it, they took a classic, a genre-defining classic no-less, and only a few short years later remade it in to something better than the original outing, so maybe they could learn a few things from themselves in how to go about pulling this off.

Chris Redfield's Awkward Debriefing
Apologies to all you non-Resident-Evil-Fan-Readers out there, but this is a Resident Evil related post. A little while ago I was once again in a Resi-mood, to I picked the REmake up on the Switch. And yes, it's a great game and probably one of the best remakes ever cashed-in-in-on by Capcom. So I picked my way through Chris' and Jill's scenarios and found myself mulling over the implications of each of these versions of events. More than that, I realised that considering events in the following games, and given the additional questions raised by Resident Evil Zero, It's Jill's scenario, and not Chris', that must be canonical… and that it must've been pretty awkward when Chris found out…
"That's some expensive carpet…" Chris Redfield thought as he tentatively explored the flooring with his socked left foot. He kicked the discarded combat boots to one side and stretched out his body as best he could whilst still technically remaining seated in the cold metal chair. Irons had been gone for hours and his final words before leaving the room had been "…don't move…" Even so, Chris had just reached a conclusion in his internal debate and decided that boot removal was technically not moving. The Chief seeing his socks was preferable to spending another how-ever-many hours with aching feet. It already felt like a lifetime since the surviving members of S.T.A.R.S. had been manhandled in to separate rooms for a personal debriefing with Irons himself following that nightmare in the Mansion.

Heaven Dust: Esidentray Evilway
'Heaven Dust' is a game that makes me smile. It's a game made by fans. Not just any fans; fans after my own heart, whose affection for the original Resident Evil games shines through in every polygon. Some twenty-x years after Capcom's seminal survival horror hit the scene, this tribute made by 'One Gruel Studio' manages to hit all the right notes needed to evoke the feel of that first tentative shuffle through the Spencer Estate whilst still doing it in a new and distinctive style. Given how much the series has evolved and diverged, there's something refreshing about a game that rewinds time back to what hooked-us in the first place.
…oh, I'm sorry, you wanted an objective review?? Nope.. none of that here thank-you very much…
Of course this type of thing is so in my wheelhouse that it's basically an oak panelled part of the decor, but I ended up playing it mostly by chance after some fortunate browsing of the Switch store. In recent months, the Switch has become a staple gaming platform for me and I'm perpetually on the lookout for new releases that are compatible with my commute. 'Heaven Dust' was a delightfully stumbled upon discovery that has appeared on the store in the past few weeks and fills the super-niche of being a great choice for anyone who wants to play 'Resident Evil' on the go, but wants something just a little more causal than just playing 'Resident Evil' on the go*.

Your Dream Resident Evil Date
That magical 14th of February is upon us once again and romance is in the air; even gaming romances are slowly …oh so slowly… becoming more well developed. Games that deal with the more emotional side of the human experience have been gradually improving over the past decade or so with standout efforts such as 'Life is Strange' and 'To the Moon' coming closer than ever to capturing the nature of love, relationships, and romantic discovery in game form.
… this wasn't always the case. Back in the retro-times (let's not get in to how far back you have to go for that) things were quite different with polygon curves and corny dialogue crammed in to a couple of hour action game being the closest gamers got to a romantic plot line. Back in the PS1 era it wasn't uncommon for someone to go from being 'annoyed by' to being 'utterly besotted' with a game protagonist in the space of just a handful of brief cutscenes. Then there were games that made those first tentative steps at being more 'mature' such as the cringe inducing sexy-time QTE minigame in Fahrenheit.
For those of us that were teenagers during this era of gaming however these characters were the object of our affections, so let me take you back to the mid-90's and let's have a slumber party. The popcorn is hot, we're half-way through our regulation Bacardi Breezer, and inevitably the conversation turns to our 'Dream Resident Evil Date', but wait?!? how do you know which of that scintillating cast will light up your eyes like S.T.A.R.S.??

Resident Evil: Code Veronica … X.. Complete…
Spoiler Warning: Lots of spoilers for Resident Evil: Code Veronica are here!
After digging out my PS2 games from my Mom's attic earlier this year, I found myself revisiting a few of my favourites; Silent Hill 2, SSX3, … and finally Resident Evil: Code Veronica, before giving up sometime around June having scrambled through about half of the game. I decided to head back to that save file last week in an effort to clear some of the backlog playings that I have on the go, or more accurately before I felt like I could legitimately start file #2 of Resident Evil Outbreak.
RE:CV (X Complete; seriously Capcom, what is it with you and editions??) is an oddball of a game in the franchise and deserves a little backstory introduction, so settle back whilst I recline in my wing-back armchair and tell you the tale:
RE:CV has it's origins way back with the original Resident Evil. Not only released for the PS1, the S.T.A.R.S. team's first incident riddled adventure was also a bit of a standout title for Sega's flailing Saturn. Seeing the reception of its sequel, Sega (like Nintendo) must've been straight on to the phone to Capcom asking for a Saturn port of Claire & Leon's funtime zombie shooty-shooty. Unlike Nintendo however, Capcom concluded that the Saturn just didn't have enough bits, or megs, or ram or whatever to handle RE2 and the idea was scuppered. Sega didn't stop the conversation there however, they convinced Capcom to develop the direct sequel to RE2 for the yet to be released Sega console, the Dreamcast; a game that would become Code: Veronica. The only problem was that Sony also wanted an RE2 sequel on their system (and let's not forget that by this time RE4 and Zero were already being developed for Nintendo; Capcom really spread themselves around). Capcom agreed, and an in-development spin-off title called "Last Escape" gained the '3' to become part of the numbered games in the series and the third to be released on PS1 under the title Resident Evil 3: Nemesis in the west. Played in this context, these games seem to make much more sense with RE3 feeling lite on plot, but heavy on "here's more of that Resident Evil that you like", and RE:CV opening with a direct continuation of the plot from RE2.

You know her as Judy Garland, star of "The Wizard of Oz," "A star is Born" and other classic films as well as the singer of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow," but before she was a legend, she was Frances Gumm, a talented young girl with a big, gown-up sounding voice.
Ruby Rakos (Broadway's Billy Elliot) plays Judy (with a younger Frances played by Ella Briggs) in this new musical conceived by Tina Marie Casamento Libby with a book by Marc Acito (Broadway's Allegiance). Judy overshadows her less talented sisters, Virgina (Andrea Laxton and Piper Birney) and Mary Jane (Lucy Horton and Claire Griffin) as the family moves from Minnesota to California to escape the financial ruin (and moral scandals) their father, Frank (Kevin Earley), has created for them. He tries to manage a movie theater while the rest of the family hits the road. His wife, Ethel (Sally Wilfert) eventually begins a relationship with family friend, Bill Gilmore (Jesse Sharp), and Frank hides his homosexual relationship with a film distributor.
Judy enrolls in a professional school for child performers where friends Joe Yule (Michael Wartella), Judy Turner (Berklea Going) and Shirley Temple (Lea Mancarella) also go on to fame. (Those first two are Mickey Rooney and Lana Turner, by the way.) This is the story of Judy's childhood and how she eventually gets to step into those ruby shoes -- and fame-- in "The Wizard of Oz." Many song favorites are included in the score (music adapted by David Libby who does arrangements and original orchestrations) like "I'm Forever Chasing Rainbows," Zing! Went the Strings of My Heart" and "You Made Me Love You." Acito weaves them into the story line with skill, so there is no feel of jukebox musical here.
The story is quite interesting: I hadn't know most of this background ( Judy Garland historian and author John Fricke serves as Creative Consultant and Historian for the project.) If you are a Judy Garland fan, you'll enjoy this intimate portrait and hearing the songs she made famous.
Rakos is up to the task of filling the ruby shoes. She sings well and hits the ending belts required on most of the songs. Her "Over the Rainbow" is moving.
Earley and Wilfert find depth and sensitivity in the roles of the parents. Standing out is Karen Mason as Ma Lawlor, the amusing teacher at the school for kid performers and later as Kay Koverman, the assistant to MGM film mogul Louis B. Mayer (Michael McCormick, who excels), who spots something in Judy and is as much behind the girl's becoming a star as anyone.
Set Designer Kristen Robinson Ward creates numerous locations with simple changes.
The two-hours and 35 minutes could use some trimming. Toning exposition in dialogue in the beginning and consolidating some musical numbers like "Beautiful Girls" would make that possible.
Chris Bailey's choreography can be circular and dizzying at times. There's just a lot going on up on that stage at times, though the tap dancing is fun.
Those ruby shoes don't look authentic for some reason (Costume Design by Elizabeth Caitlin).
I'm not a Shirley Temple expert, but she would have been about 6 when this story is set and Mancarella seems to appear to be more mature than that.
Chasing Rainbows runs at Goodspeed, 6 Main St., East Haddam, through Nov. 27. Performances are Wednesday at 2 and 7:30 pm, Thursday at 7:30 pm (with select performances at 2 pm), Friday at 8 pm, Saturday at 3 and 8 pm, and Sunday at 2 pm (with select performances at 6:30 pm.)

Thanksgiving Food Drive: Monday, Nov. 21. Buy one ticket, get one free for select seats for the 2 and 7:30 performances with a generous non-perishable food donation to benefit the East Haddam Food Bank. Donations will be collected at The Goodspeed.

Snow removal often can be an exhausting work, especially in the case of a large property and harsh winter storms. It is not simple to execute the snow removal, so it is recommended to consider the professional help. Sometimes, snow removal can be dangerous if you decide to take care of it alone. Contacting the reliable company and calling in the professionals is indubitably a better way.
Snow removal includes snow plowing, snow relocation, and ice removing and treatments.
Ice treatment usually implies salt, chemicals, and sand use.
If you're not sure about a company that can provide you snow removal services, the Landscape Laurel can be a solution. We have all the necessary equipment in order to relocate or plow large amounts of snow. Our workers can easily and thoroughly clear every parking lots and walkaway at the property. Our equipment and tools are well-maintained and in an excellent condition. We offer snow removal in Laurel, MD.
Also, we have the appropriate products and chemicals in order to treat the ice correctly. There are many different ice melting products available to buy, but our workers are experts who can decide which products are the best.


The common American crow is the Corvus brachyrhynchos the call sounds like, caw caw caw.
I think they sound like they are laughing – when not giving that spooky scary haunted house on the horizon sound.
I happen to be one of those people who enjoys the antics of crows and ravens.
They are loud boisterous, travel in large flocks and they scavenge.
They are also highly intelligent birds, that I think get a bad rap.
While we were in Florida a few months ago, I was highly amused by Fish Crows, they are different then our laughing crows back home in Virginia.
these guys entertained me in the back yard for hours.
I put bird seed in my home-made record bird feeders. They hang by shepherds hooks in the back yard by the water.

Fish Crow – Corvus ossifragus have a call that sounds like unh unh unh.
So if you ask them it they have done something wrong, they will reply unh unh.
The inspiration for my folk-art style pencil sketch is from these silly birds.
I scanned the pencil sketch, then played with digital overlay. Using new software it was a mistake at first, but then I rather enjoyed the different looks that I could achieve. I tried several different styles, one of which is in the header of my blog. Thank you Debra, for asking.
I've managed to accidentally delete the files with the other scans, and as of this time, I've lost the original pencil sketch.
Once the original is found, it will be available along with others at Night Bird Creations.
I asked the crow if he deleted the files and took the original but he said, unh unh.

Bad crow! Hope you find those files! I also love crows-we have huge flocks here. Looks like the fish crow is a medium sized bird-he isn't much bigger than the blackbird. Crows are very intelligent birds, along with ravens and bluejays. I read that bluejays take care of the elders in their flocks. That's such a sweet thought!

New Issues 2020: Romania (National Grand Lodge)

National Grand Lodge of Romania 140th Anniversary
Romania: National Grand Lodge of Romania 140th Anniversary, 3 April 2020. Images from Romfilatelia.
THE NATIONAL GRAND LODGE OF ROMANIA, 140 YEARS SINCE ITS ESTABLISHMENT
On the occasion of the 140th anniversary of the existence of the National Grand Lodge of Romania, Romfilatelia introduces into circulation on Friday, April 3rd, the postage stamps issue The National Grand Lodge of Romania, 140 years since its establishment.
The issue, consisting of two postage stamps and a perforated souvenir sheet, brings to the attention of passionate stamp collectors' novel aspects of the existence and activity of this fraternal society.
Freemasonry is a fraternal society the origins of which go back in time to the very cradle of humanity. Its efforts, directed toward perfecting the human being, are underpinned by the belief that love makes one a better, more enlightened, more just and more tolerant person, and a more useful member of society.
The Romanian Freemasonry has a long history, its beginnings being close to the establishment of the first Grand Lodge in London and Westminster (June 24th, 1717). In 1732, in Galati, the Loggia di Galazzi was founded, having as Venerable Master Prince Scarlat Ghica. In 1735 another Lodge was established in Iasi, the Venerable Master being Prince Constantin Mavrocordat. Masonic lodges were founded throughout the Romanian space, better known being the lodges St. Andreas zu den drei Seeblättern of Sibiu (1767) and Zu den drei Säulen of Brasov (1749). For a long time, great personalities of the Romanian history were initiated in masonry not only in the country but also in Obediences from abroad, among them counting I.C. Bratianu, C.A. Rosetti, Nicolae Balcescu, I.T. Ulic, Traian Mosoiu, Octavian Goga, Alexandru Vaida Voevod, Traian Vuia and many others.
he acquisition of the State independence of Romania in the war of 1877-1878 enhanced the actions in the masonic plan for the founding of a large Sovereign Obedience, since in the country a large number of lodges operated, under the Obediences of the Grand Orient of France, the Grand Orient of Lusitania or the Grand Orient of Italy. A first attempt was made on June 1st, 1859, I. C. Bratianu being considered Grand Master of the "Danube Star Grand Lodge", and for 1861, with Ion Heliade Radulescu as Grand Master.
An important step was taken on May 7th, 1879, when Anton Costiescu (1840-1889), officer of the Romanian army, elite artilleryman and Venerable Master of the Sage of Heliopolis Lodge until June 1874. On May 1st, 1879, together with Basile-Constantin Livianu, he had promulgated the "Romanian Masonic Constitution", in order to constitute the Grand Orient of Romania as "national and independent Sovereign Power", with Th. Rosetti as Grand Master. The Grand Orient operated from May 7th, 1879 to December 15th, 1880.
The official establishment of the National Grand Lodge of Romania took place on September 8th, 1880. Constantin Moroiu (1837-1918), an officer in the rank of captain, a participant in the War for the Independence of Romania and a very active philatelist, was elected Grand Master. Constantin Moroiu was initiated into the Sage of Heliopolis Lodge on June 9th/21st, 1874. On September 8th, 1880, he established the National Grand Lodge of Romania, with the contribution of the Brothers from the Danube Star, Ilfov Lodges and the Danube Star Capitulum. In 1881, he founded the Supreme Council of Primitive Ancient Rite of Memphis and the Supreme Council for Romania, and on November 22nd, 1882, the Grand Royal Arch Chapter. Between 1884 and 1886, Moroiu researched documents regarding the origin of Freemasonry in Romania, in the Italian archives in Florence, Naples and Venice. He established links with the Supreme Councils of Europe, was a Guarantor of friendship for many Grand Lodges and Supreme Councils, Grand Master of Honour of the Supreme Grand Council of several countries in Europe and America. In 1904, he participated in the Masonic Congress in Brussels. Until 1911, Constantin Moroiu has been the Grand Master and Sovereign Grand Commander, then dividing into two sections the Grand Lodge, remaining "Sovereign Pontiff".
Constantin Moroiu pursued the preservation of the sovereignty and unity of the Romanian masonry, for which a single Constitution was adopted for the entire Masonic Order, which included the Grand Lodge and the rites with the specialised training workshops under their subordination. The drafting of the Constitution (320 articles) was completed on November 5th/17th, 1880, being published in Bucharest in 1881. From the very beginning at art. 1, the National Grand Lodge affirmed its deist and regular masonry status, proclaiming as the basic principle "the existence of the Divinity, the immortality of the soul and the solidarity of humanity". Freedom of conscience was respected, as "a right of every human being; it excludes no one for its religious beliefs", and the motto was that of regular universal Freemasonry: "Freedom, Equality, Fraternity".
The backbone of the Romanian Masonic Order was the National Grand Lodge of Romania. All the Masonic crafts of the Romanian Masonic Order, both the blue ones and those of the high degrees, were "interconnected though a central authority" called the Romanian National Grand Lodge. The Constitution stated that "Masonry comprises crafts of different degrees under the name of Lodges, Capitula and Councils. There is also a central Masonic power, a higher craft called the National Grand Lodge, the Supreme Council of the Romanian Masonry which alone has the right to initiate the last degrees of Freemasonry".
At the same time, it was stated that the National Grand Lodge of Romania was placed "under the shield and protection of the Romanian Government and the laws of the country". The National Grand Lodge represented the entire Order before the profane authorities. No craft, under any circumstances and under no pretext could address directly to the civil authorities, without the approval of the Grand Lodge. The placement of the National Grand Lodge of Romania "under the shield and protection of the Romanian Government" has its origin and explanation in the very circumstances in which it was founded, with the help of the Prime Minister Ion C. Bratianu and the Minister of the Interior C. A. Rosetti, freemasons.
The Constitution provided that National Grand Lodge of Romania, as the only regular Masonic power, had as an area of jurisdiction the entire territory of the Old Kingdom of Romania. In the hierarchy of the National Grand Lodge of Romania there was an accumulation of dignities, the Grand Master being at the same time the Sovereign Great Commander, and the Grand Lodge directing "the affairs of all rites". In 1906, on the occasion of the 40th anniversary of the reign of King Carol I, for his contribution to supporting the movement for national unity, the National Grand Lodge of Romania was awarded the "Gold Medal in person of the Enlightened Brother Constantin Moroiu, because the Grand Lodge had not declared itself a Legal and Moral Person".

Sacro Cuore Immacolato di Maria ou Basílica do Sagrado Coração Imaculado de Maria é uma igreja titular e basílica menor localizada na Piazza Euclide, no quartiere Pinciano de Roma, Itália, e dedicada ao Imaculado Coração de Maria. Construído pelo arquiteto Armando Brasini (1879–1965). Sua construção começou em 1923 e a planta é uma cruz grega inscrita num círculo. Em 1936, quando foi concluída, foi transformada em igreja paroquial e entregue à Congregação dos Missionários Filhos do Imaculado Coração de Maria (claretianos). Uma grandiosa cúpula foi planejada, mas nunca construída; um pequeno tambor foi completado em 1951.

No batistério há pinturas modernas do armênio Gregorio Sciltian (1900–1985).

O papa João XXIII elevou-a à dignidade de basílica menor em maio de 1959 e o papa Paulo VI a tornou uma igreja titular em fevereiro de 1965, com o cardeal Ángel Herrera Oria como primeiro titular. O atual cardeal-presbítero protetor do título de Sagrado Coração de Maria é Julius Riyadi Darmaatmadja, S.J., arcebispo de Jacarta.

Tehran says U.S. must stop breaking international law
September 15, 2018 - 2:1
TEHRAN – The Iranian ambassador to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has said the Islamic Republic expects the international community to force the U.S. to put an end to its practice of violating international rights.
"It is expected that the international community does not allow the US to continue with its illegal and unilateral measures and to stop the country's practice of violating international rights," Kazem Gharibabadi said on Wednesday as he addressed the September meeting of the IAEA Board of Governors.
He said that the latest report of IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano that confirmed Iran's compliance with its commitments under the 2015 nuclear deal with world powers attested to "transparency" of the country's nuclear program.
"While Iran has been cooperating with the IAEA effectively and based on goodwill, unfortunately we have not fully benefitted from the deal as we should have," Gharibabadi added, according to msn.com.
Under the nuclear deal, officially called the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), Iran agreed to scale back its nuclear activities in exchange for termination of economic and financial sanctions.
The envoy said the U.S. "unilateral and illegal exit from the nuclear deal and its re-imposition of unilateral and transnational sanctions that had been lifted after the JCPOA conclusion are the blatant violations of UN Security Council Resolution 2231 and the JCPOA … in defiance of the international community."
In addition to violating the JCPOA, Gharibabadi also hit out at the U.S. for threatening other countries to either bow to Washington's policies or face punitive measures.
He said the JCPOA could survive if all parties to the deal fully and sincerely fulfilled their commitments, stressing "the remaining members of the deal need to take practical and appropriate measures to guarantee Iran benefits from the deal."
"Security Council Resolution 2231 also urges all UN members and regional and international organizations to adopt measures that are necessary to help implement the nuclear deal and to refrain from taking measures that undermine the implementation of their obligations under the JCPOA," he stated.
By breaching its international commitments and taking illegal and unilateral measures, the U.S. government not only tarnishes the credibility of the Security Council but also undermines its own image in the world, the Iranian diplomat concluded.

A man was found in about 10 feet of water in the reservoir north of Boedecker Lake.
Searchers on Tuesday afternoon recovered the body of a kayaker who was first reported missing Sunday evening in a Loveland reservoir.
According to Loveland police, a search boat with sonar capabilities found the man in about 10 feet of water in Buckingham Lake, north of Boedecker Lake, at about 1:20 p.m.
The Larimer County Coroner's Office will conduct an autopsy and will release the man's identity as well as cause and manner of death at a later time.
Loveland Fire Rescue Battalion Chief Michael Cerovski previously said that two people called 911 about 6:30 p.m. Sunday to report they had seen a man in his 50s kayaking on Buckingham Lake west of Loveland and then saw an empty kayak.
Search efforts began Sunday evening and included members of Loveland Fire Rescue Authority, Larimer County Search and Rescue, Berthoud Fire Department, Larimer County Parks rangers, Colorado State Parks and Wildlife, Larimer County Dive Team and the Larimer County Sheriff's Office, in addition to the Loveland Police Department.
According to Loveland Police Lt. Jan Burreson, the search took place for about five hours on Sunday, about eight hours on Monday and about four hours on Tuesday before the body was recovered.
Cerovski said there are two operations in dive missions: rescues, which crews generally focus on for the first hour and 20 minutes to do everything they can to save a person; and recovery, which begins after the period of time a person has been known to survive in the water has ended and all efforts to save the person have been exhausted.
Search efforts in this case were suspended in the evenings but not called off until the body was found Tuesday. Daylight not only makes it more likely for crews to be able to locate someone or something in the water, but it's safer, Cervoski said.
"Survivability analysis is considered when determining rescue versus recovery operations because dive operations are very dangerous," he said.
Larimer County Dive Rescue team lead Mike Levy said his volunteer agency was called to assist in the search efforts led by Loveland, and his team's assistance concluded on Monday afternoon.
Levy said water rescue search times vary, depending on several factors.
"We've been involved with some searches that have started and then stopped, and then more information and leads come up, and then we're asked to assist in doing more searching," he said. He noted that some take several days, while others have taken several months.
In addition to police dogs, manpower and heavy equipment, the Loveland dive rescue team also employed a drone as well as a search boat with sonar capabilities during the search.
"Those technological advances are great, but they're challenging to rely on exclusively," Cerovski said.
The Loveland Police Department is investigating the death, and police ask that anyone with information about the incident call Detective Chris Kamoske at 970-962-2259.
If you see someone in distress, make contact with the person and see if he or she is all right.
If the person is unresponsive, call 911.
Make sure to establish a last seen point, and take note of what's around the area; it makes searches faster and more likely to be effective.

You guys are going to be so disappointed in this weeks log, so I apologize in advance. Just, while you're reading, recognize that I've made some good progress this week.
I crashed for about four days and the fallout was brutal. It was pretty much me sleeping for four days while NaNoWriMo just passed my by.
I'm behind by about 17,000 words right now. This means that I have to buckle down and start getting out some serious numbers. Which is why today, I managed to write 3,572 words. My original goal for the day was 5,000, but I'm definitely happy with 3,500.
I'm still working really hard to get as many words down as possible. Today was more productive than the day before, which is a feat in and of itself. I'm slowly seeing my deficit decline, however, I'm not confident that I'll be able to close the gap by Dec. 1.
It's the day before Thanksgiving. Luckily I'm only having to bake a pie of two so I won't need to worry about my day being too busy. The unlucky side, though, is that I'll have to get enough done that I won't fall too far behind tomorrow if I don't get an opportunity to write.
I'll update you guys again next week. Leave me some encouragement because I'm really feeling the ache in my brain from all of this writing.


The daughter of the late Michael Jackson has finally reunited with her mother to support her through her cancer battle.
They were estranged for years following Michael Jackson's death, but it seems tragedy has bought Paris Jackson and Debbie Rowe closer together.
Paris has taken to social media with a rare photo of the two together as Debbie continues to battle cancer.
In the heartwarming image, the 18-year-old can be seen kissing her 57-year-old mother's head tenderly.
Debbie is currently undergoing chemotherapy to try to beat the disease, but the often painful procedure hasn't taken away her smile.
Paris pictured with her drummer boyfriend Michael Snoddy.
Paris opened up about where she draws her strength from these days in the photo's caption.
Michael's ex-wife confirmed her diagnosis with the disease back in July, releasing a statement about her upcoming battle.
"I'm a fighter and always have been," the mother of Paris and Prince Jackson said.
Watch the heartbreaking moment Paris Jackson broke down about her bullying in the clip below.


That would be Josh...the birthday boy. As you read earlier, we celebrated it for the most part earlier on the mini coast trip. However, we must celebrate on the actual day a bit too. This means...back to the kitchen. You may not know, but I think I won Josh over with some banana bread senior year.
What was the birthday dinner? It's fall so I thought I'd create harvest meal. Yes, a theme, so clever. In order to prevent disaster dinner (oh geez, horrible memories of the first 2 Josh birthday dinners are flashing in my mind right now), I opted for things I've made previously. Here's the meal: Rachel Ray's Roast Pork Tenderloins with Escalloped Apples, Cooking Light's Caramelized Shallots and Brussels Sprouts with prosciutto, and mashed sweet potatoes and yams. And you can't have a birthday without cake, so I made a Spiced Apple Cake. Whoa-la, no disaster dinner. Full Josh = Happy Birthday Success.

Q: Amazon ec2 with windows 2008 server with TOMCAT I just created a free ec2 account. I want to test few things but i want to make sure that i am using ONLY the free version.
I want to run a java application in windows 2008 R2 server with TOMCAT as web server. Ec2 by default doesn't have java SDK and TOMCAT installed.
SO here are the few queries

*

*Will i be charged for installing TOMCAT and JAVA also for deploying my application?

*How do i install TOMCAT and JAVA ? can someone provide a link?

*I tried doing a remote desktop ut could not connect to the server. Looks like a firewall issue. But then how do i disable ?

A: Can't answer all your questions, but I'll take a shot.
If you want to watch your ec2 cost, setup a billing alert in AWS that will notify you when your account exceeds a certain threshold, and set your threshold very low if you are very concerend. You can always monitor your outstanding charges on your billing page on a daily basis if you are really concerned.
Pick a small or micro instance if you want to keep your costs low; micro instances I have found are mostly useless for any serious work, but they are very, very cheap and maybe ok for trying things out.
To install any software, you are going to need to get remote desktop working. Once the server is spun up, remote in and you can install anything you want; there is no extra cost to install software (except buying licenses if you need them, but that is not aws's concern, they won't be charging you for installing tomcat.
You need to open up the windows firewall on your 2008 server AND you need to make sure the AWS security group also allows incoming connections on port 3389 - its essentially there firewall that runs in addition to the EC2 instances firewall - BOTH need to be open. You can either modify the security group that was assigned to your instance, or create a new one and associated it with your instance.

On a Sunday in July, I received a heartbreaking call from a friend. She was calling to tell me that one of our friends had died by suicide. She was young, inspiring, and still had things to accomplish in this world. She was also very open about her mental health, and our friend group surrounded her with love and support, trying to push the scary things away and help her keep living. In the end, the scary things won, and we are still picking up the pieces.
September is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, and I know my friendΓÇÖs story is not unique. Every year, more than 40,000 Americans die by suicide. Some of you reading this may have your own stories to share about how suicide has affected you; IΓÇÖm sorry you have to carry that weight with you.
Also in July of this year, the Argus Leader published a story on suicide in South Dakota, including the fact that in 2017, South Dakota saw its highest rates of suicide deaths. One of the protective factors for suicide (something that is likely to stop someone from suicide) is effective behavioral health care. That makes sense, right? If someone is receiving effective care for their mental health needs, they are less likely to die by suicide. The problem with this, though, is that mental health care around the U.S. is inadequate. We have more people who need help than providers who can see them, and the system itself can be incredibly hard to navigate.
If you tried right now to get an appointment for the first time with a counselor or psychiatrist in Sioux Falls, many places would require a referral from your primary care provider. This means you would need to, first, be able to afford to see a primary care provider. This also means you would need to have transportation to make it to multiple appointments, then possibly to the pharmacist, and you would need to have a place to call home, where you can store your medicine. You need a clock so you know when to take your medicine or when to leave so you can make it to your next appointment. These things arenΓÇÖt feasible for everyone.
There are so many moving pieces to effective mental health care. One suicide risk factor that we encounter in our work at CRCAIH is historical trauma in our Native populations. Historical trauma is trauma that our ancestors faced (i.e., boarding school placement, assimilation, and the loss of culture and language) and carrying this trauma around increases our risk for suicide. Things we have no control over are contributing to the high rates of suicide throughout Indian Country.
What can we do? NAMI has some great resources available to understand the warning signs and risk of suicide and to prevent suicide. There are calling and texting hotlines available. There are some programs in South Dakota are making herculean efforts to combat suicide; one I learned about recently is called BeThe1SD, and theyΓÇÖve put out some powerful videos and resources that are relevant to communities around the state. It's going to take a lot to change the current crisis we are seeing, but we can begin by shifting the narrative around mental health and suicide. It's okay to be sad, and it's okay to need help.
Check on your friends and family. Tell them you care.
If you need to talk, you can call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline 1-800-273-8255 or text NAMI to 741-741.

AB InBev enlists Rowan Chidgey to lead UK marketing for big name beers
By Rebecca Stewart-08 January 2020 12:47pm
Chidgey has been with the business for five years, most recently as head of the Budweiser brand in Europe
Budweiser Brewing Group UK and Ireland, the beer arm of AB InBev, has appointed Rowan Chidgey to lead marketing for brands including Budweiser, Corona and Beck's in the UK.
Chidgey has been with the business for five years, most recently as head of the Budweiser brand in Europe. She's now been appointed as marketing director for the region and will take responsibility for the "strategic and creative direction" of the group's flagship beers, as well as newcomers to the market like Bud Light and local brewers such as Boddingtons.
Her remit will include sponsorships, product launches, brand-led campaigns and other activations.
The marketer takes over the reigns from Tatiana Stadukhina, who was recently appointed global vice-president for low calorie beer Michelob Ultra, following its launch in the UK last year.
Chidgey takes on the top marketing role following a successful year for Budweiser in the UK. The brand has been focused on sponsorship deal with the likes of the England men's national football team and the Euro 2020 tournament.
Commenting on her new role, Chidgey said: "I'm so excited to work on all of Budweiser Brewing Group's best-loved brands -- we have huge ambitions for next year, including Bud Light's sponsorship of the England senior men's team at the Euro 2020 Tournament, making an impact in sustainable brewing, and working to create a nation of smart drinkers by enhancing our no and low alcohol portfolio.
"I especially look forward to leading and developing a dynamic and growing team that is at the forefront of the drinks industry."
In Q3 of 2019, the world's biggest brewer lowered its annual profit forecasts after a weak three months dragged down by higher commodity costs, marketing costs in China, and price rises in South Korea and Brazil.
However, despite global woes the UK business was a bright spot for the group over the same time period, thanks to "a summer of sport" and "big campaigns" from its global brands.

NINA GARCIA
Nina Garcia is the editor-in-chief of ELLE, the number one fashion media brand in the world, with 45 international editions and a global audience of 18+ million. Nina is the first Latina to lead a major American fashion title, and since she took the helm in September 2017, the brand's footprint has never been larger.
Nina oversaw a dynamic redesign that complements the magazine's thought-provoking features and
showcases fashion in the context of culture, winning Adweek's Hottest Fashion Magazine in 2019. Her covers have made news well beyond the newsstand, from Vice President Kamala Harris on the eve of the election to Selena Gomez gracing ELLE's first-ever Latinx issue. For her impactful issues, ELLE also received an ASME nomination for General Excellence in Service and Lifestyle magazines in early 2022.
Under Nina's leadership, ELLE launched conservation issues spotlighting environmental activists from Jane Fonda to Greta Thunberg, working with Conservation International. And, for ELLE's groundbreaking cover featuring FKA Twigs discussing intimate partner violence, Nina received WomanKind's Phoenix Woman of the Year in Media Award for bringing attention to the issue. In 2021, she was also the recipient of the CFDA's Media Award in Honor of Eugenia Sheppard, and in early 2022 she was named one of USA Today's Women of the Year.
Born in Barranquilla, Colombia, Nina is a graduate of Boston University and FIT. She began her career at Mirabella and served as fashion director of ELLE from 2000 to 2008, after holding other roles at the title since 1995. Nina was awarded the Oracle Award by Fashion Group International (FGI) in 2010, and she was the creative director of Marie Claire before returning to ELLE in 2017.
Nina has been a judge on the Peabody Award-winning Project Runway since it launched in 2004 and has appeared as a style expert on Good Morning America, The View, Today, and more.
After undergoing a preventative double mastectomy in 2019, which she shared in a moving op-ed, Nina joined the board of the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF) and is involved with The Basser Center for BRCA Research and the Alliance in Reconstructive Surgery Foundation. She also serves on the board of Village Roadshow Entertainment Group, the CFDA, and is on the advisory board for Fashion Trust Arabia.
Nina lives in New York with her husband and their two sons.

The ROOT Software Framework is the cornerstone of all software stacks used by High Energy Physics (HEP) experiments, at CERN and other prestigious laboratories. It provides components which are fundamental for the entire data processing chain, from particle collisions to final publications, including final user data analysis, including modern machine learning techniques.
ROOT features a declarative analysis sub-system, TDataFrame, which has proven to be a solution to scale in-process parallel HEP data analysis to ~100 cores with a simple and intuitive programming model.
This project aims to address the distributed execution of TDataFrame analysis programs. This could be accomplished by developing a generic library with a MapReduce-like interface. Such library would sit on top of connectors for specific task schedulers that would distribute the application tasks, for instance Spark, an open-source software framework for large-scale big data processing on clusters. Additionally, a plugin could be implemented to facilitate the submission of such distributed analyses from Jupyter notebooks, a well-known interface for interactive analysis.
Implement a Python library, with a MapReduce-like interface, that is able to submit distributed jobs receiving as input a ROOT columnar dataset and producing aggregated results (e.g. histograms).
Implement one or more connectors for the aforementioned library, e.g. a Spark connector.
Explore how ROOT's dataframe class, TDataFrame, can be combined with the aforementioned library to drive the execution in every node of a cluster.
Perform tests with real code coming from CERN experiments (CMS, TOTEM).
Working implementation of a Python library that hides the complexity of submitting distributed ROOT TDataFrame jobs to computational clusters.

Wir sind beide in Frankfurt am Main geboren und aufgewachsen und leben seit Jahren berufsbedingt im Odenwald südlich von Darmstadt. In unserer Ehe verbindet uns unter anderem die Freude an der Musik, am Wandern, Kanu fahren, und am "Bibel-Teilen".
Stephan: Ich arbeite als Pfarrer und Dekan (Superintendent) im Evangelischen Dekanat Odenwald. Mein Aufgabenfeld umfasst beispielsweise den Predigtdienst, die Begleitung der 25 Kirchengemeinden der Region, Konfirmandenunterricht, Ökumene, Seelsorge und die jährliche Jugendfreizeit. Zu Irland: Die Vielfalt und Buntheit der lutherischen Gemeinde, die ökumenische Weite und die hohe Eigenverantwortung zahlreicher engagierter Menschen faszinieren mich.
Larissa: ich habe unter anderem in Durham (GB) Politikwissenschaft, Geschichte und Öffentliches Recht studiert. Derzeit arbeite ich als Referentin für Gesellschaftliche Verantwortung im Evangelischen Dekanat Odenwald. Zu Irland: Ich freue mich darauf, Teil der Gemeinde in Dublin zu sein. Gespannt schaue ich auf mögliche neue berufliche Perspektiven.
Jetzt gibt es für uns eine biografische Brücke nach Irland! Wir stehen noch am anderen Ufer und schauen neugierig zu Ihnen hinüber und grüßen Sie herzlich!
these are my first words to all of you after the church council elected me as your new pastor! Even though it is a long time until 1st September, many thoughts are going to Ireland and we begin to understand: there is a lot of saying farewell ahead of us in Germany and a new world waiting for us in Ireland. But endings and beginnings belong to our lives and they make it colourful. Whatever we end and begin, it lays in God's hand.
Who are the new pastor and his wife?
We were both born and grew up in Frankfurt/Main. Our home is in the Odenwald, a rural area with small towns and villages and many forests, located between Darmstadt and Heidelberg. Together we like to travel (hiking, canoeing), we enjoy music (singing in a choir, piano playing, church organ…) and we daily share God's word reading the Bible.
Supporting my colleague pastors and the parishes, representing the parishes and different church offices in ecumenical affairs and in the local civil contexts, preaching almost every Sunday, being involved in counselling. A special joy and enrichment for me has always been the youth camp every summer. Most of the times it took place in Sweden.
I am looking forward to seeing you! The colourful parish with the German and the English-speaking branch, with an open ecumenical mind fascinates me. So many people are involved in the parish's life, which is wonderful. Many of you are living in one of the smaller towns in Ireland and I will be happy to meet you there.
Larissa: I studied Political Science, History and Public Law in Freiburg (Germany) and Durham (GB). Since a couple of years I'm working for the deanery and it's parishes in the field of Corporate Social Responsibility. One topic is, for example, the use of renewable energy in the context of the integrity of creation.
I am looking forward to being a part of the parish in Dublin and to discover new job perspectives in Dublin.
There is now a bridge for us between Germany and Ireland. We are still standing on the other side, looking curiously to our future place. We are grateful that the church council entrusts us with the assignment and welcomes us both. Thank you very much for all feedback during "our weekend" at the end of January!
Das schrieb mir ein guter Freund: "Patrick ist ja wirklich ein ökumenischer Heiliger, denn er ist nie heiliggesprochen worden, die Iren haben einfach heilig gemacht. Deshalb ist bis heute am St. Patricks Day das Motto: "Patrick was a saint… we ain't".
A good friend of mine wrote: "Patrick is really a ecumenical Saint, because he never was canonized by the church. The People of Ireland made him to a Saint. So they say at St. Patrick's Day: "Patrick was a saint… we ain't".


As a character artist on NBA Live 16, I cleaned scan data of NBA players and refined face and hair textures.

The Full Add function is one of two ways to add contacts to your system. The other is the Quick Add option (please see the tutorial on Quick Add Contact: https://support.fundly.com/hc/en-us/articles/206316327-Add-Contact-Quick-Add-Individual-or-Organization-Contact).
Quick Add contact allows the user to quickly add a new contact to their system with just contact name and to optionally add phone number, email address, and/or mailing address (Quick Add is accessed from Main Menu: Add New and also when adding contacts "on the fly"). If you want to add more than that to a contact record while creating it, such as formal or informal salutation, spouse/partner, contact type(s), set communication preferences, and/or add contact tag(s), then you will need to use the Full Add Contact option to access fields beyond those offered on the Quick Add Contact screen.
For individual contacts, the tabs are: Personal Info, Work Info, Relationship, Custom Info, Documents, and Social Media. You may have additional tabs if you have added Contact Types that are associated to custom data set fields to the contact, such as Committee or Boar Member, Program Recipient, Member, etc.
When adding a contact (both individual and organizational contacts) the only required fields are First and Last Name (for individual)/Organization Name (for organizations).
Spouse/Partner and Children that are part of the same household can be added to the Personal Info tab. All other relationships are added from the Relationship tab. See our tutorial on Householding to understand how the "same household" check box affects contact records and the sharing of phone numbers, email addresses, and mailing addresses.

Paternostro – Riders focused on own game
Leicester coach Rob Paternostro says his main concern are their results and not those of the teams around them.
The Riders are currently third in the BBL, but have four games in hand on second placed Worcester, while they could also cut the gap on league leaders Newcastle to four points should they win the two games in hand they have on the Eagles.
But following Saturday's 97-69 win over Durham Wildcats, in which Drew Sullivan top scored with 18 points, Paternostro said they're focused on their own game.
He told the club's official website: "Obviously we look at the scores, we all do, we look at every score in the league but we're not that concerned at the moment by teams around us. Right now, we're looking at our own game and understand there's a long way to go with the season so it doesn't really matter who's playing on the day.
"That was our third win in a row after losing two in a row and we just want to continue to build."
Leicester's win over Durham can be seen in full on SKY Sports 3 tonight (Tuesday, 6pm).

You will be aware that in our Provider Agreement (2.51 on page 13) we are now allowing a 4 week notice period to be applied to the Early Years Funding for a child that leaves a setting. If you are implementing a notice period to funded time, you will need to ensure parents are aware of the implications that their funding will remain with you and they will not being able to start funding at their new provider until after the notice period.
Previously, the notice period was not allowed on funded time and there will be parents of older children, who may need childcare now or in the future for younger children or have advised friends that the funding follows the child. This may not be correct depending on the setting. Your parents need to be fully aware of this change so they can make informed choices.
Providers must or need to be explicit within their contracts that any notice period applies to funded and charged for time and contracts MUST be signed by the parents in order to claim the notice period. If a child leaves without notice, the maximum of 4 weeks can be claimed from the last date of attendance.
This change is to support providers who may have parents that leave unexpectedly but some families may need to leave suddenly due to personal circumstances and 2 year old funding is available for disadvantaged families so we expect providers to use their discretion especially during this transition period where new policies are being implemented.
If you are a provider who has a child join your setting, you should ask the parent if they have been attending elsewhere and if they have given notice. You may want to contact the provider to check the leaving date of the child and whether a notice period does apply. We cannot fund a child at both settings so the new provider may need to charge for any hours attended until the funding can commence.
To avoid any late notification of changes to your funding claims, we recommend settings address this when a parent makes an enquiry to join your setting so that the appropriate fees can be discussed.

Hi CH, I am focused on icon, I hope you like that #10, some feedback about that. Thanks!
Would you be able to give us feedback. That we may be just what you mean even sharper.
Like, please try to make a symbol with this, but leave this also as it is, clean.
good day CH.. Thank you for your positive response...i will submit revised design of entry..
good evening CH.. thank you for your message... feel free to ask for final revisions of your logo CH.. Thank you..
Like this logo, but please remove the gradient in the text and give me some more color samples, thanks!
Like this, but try some different font on "Lifestylestore" thanks!
Hi please put lifestyle and store together, but leave the one you make also, and also make a version for black background, thanks!
Hi. I have submitted #59 with your requests. Thank You.


Your faithful giving is an act of worship and support the present and future ministries of River Rock Church. We offer secure online giving processed by Vanco Services through the Realm Ministry System for giving by bank account and major credit cards.
Click here for more details about the service.
Thank you for your prayerful consideration of supporting River Rock Church through giving tithes and offerings. We are committed to being good stewards of the resources that God has graciously provided us so that we may accomplish His will.
Our church ministry is solely supported by the faithful tithes and offerings of our church people. Giving faithfully is an act of worship and an indicator of your love for God. The Bible says God loves a cheerful giver and that we should give Him back a portion of our income – like seed planted for a future crop – and He will bless our faithful generosity.
While we always enable people to give in traditional ways, in today's digital world many people also appreciate online options which can help them be more consistent in the grace of giving. In the past cash and checks were the primary way people gave, but today many people have stopped using checks and carrying cash and instead are using debit and credit cards. Many people are paying bills, transferring funds and giving online.
River Rock Church PO Box 184, Belle Plaine, MN 56011.
You can also setup your bank bill pay or EZ Pay service to send your offering to the same address.
Scheduled online giving makes it easy to put God first with your finances and give back to God from your "first fruits" when you are out of town some Sundays and if you no longer carry checks. Vanco Services e.giving service is the trusted source for secure online giving for thousands of churches and they are based in Minnesota.
You can use your computer or mobile device to setup weekly, monthly or yearly giving from checking, savings, debit or credit card and you can easily cancel or change the amounts without contacting anyone from our church.
Immediately after submitting your giving contribution and when each auto-scheduled contribution takes place you will receive an e-mail verifying your gift.
(Test God in that! See Malachi 3:10 and Matthew 6:33).
All Christ-followers should give to their church – Scripture makes it clear that every believer in every church should give (see 1 Corinthians 16:1-2). In this same passage, the Bible tells us that we should give regularly and consistently in proportion to what we earn. We also need to keep in mind that the Lord loves a cheerful giver (see 2 Corinthians 9:7).
River Rock's online giving is easy & secure.
Over the last few years automatically scheduled online giving has become the preferred method for many people who worship God with their finances by supporting their local church. We have a new online giving system through our ACS Realm service that allows you great flexibility to specify how and when you want to give. You can schedule contribution a certain number of times, months or for an entire year. You can setup a regular giving schedule and then easily edit or delete it.
