How Hyperloop Will Move Passengers Through Underground Tunnels To Bypass Traffic
Elon Musk's ambitious plan to reduce traveling times with tunnel systems beneath major cities has just had a major makeover.
He tweeted details this evening on an adjusted plan for the urban loop system, revealing a new focus on mass transit.
Instead of starting with carrying individual cars at high-speeds on electric sleds, the plan now is to use that Hyperloop to transport pedestrians and cyclists first, and then only later to work on moving cars around underground to bypass traffic.
The passenger electric buses would descend to the tunnels in an elevator shaft, before setting off on a track where they can hit speeds of up to 125 miles per hour (200km/h).
Musk said The plan to transport cars is still on, "but only after all personalized mass transit needs are met. It's a matter of courtesy & fairness. If someone can't afford a car, they should go first."
The Boring Co urban loop would have 1000's of small stations the size of a single parking space that take you very close to your destination & blend seamlessly into the fabric of a city, rather than being a small number of big stations like a subway.
WHAT IS THE HYPERLOOP?
Hyperloop is a proposed method of travel that would transport people at roughly 700mph between distant locations.
It is essentially a long tube that has had the air removed to create a vacuum.
It can take passengers the 380 miles from LA to San Francisco in 30 minutes i.e half the time it takes an aeroplane.
The tube is suspended off the ground to protect against weather and earthquakes.
There are many companies trying to bring the technology to life, including Elon Musk himself, Hyperloop Transportation Technologies, and Virgin Hyperloop One.

This is a journey into the many different variants of the Disruptive Pattern Material, also known as DPM.
I am only showing patterns I have in my collection. There are many many more.
Introduced by the British Ministry of Defense in the late 1960s, DPM is one of the most widely copied patterns in the world. Many countries having their own variations of the standard British woodland and desert patterns, usually made in china using the standard US BDU cut. Some countries have more interesting colorways running from red and orange to blue and purple. Many more have worn the pattern at one time or another, either due to their connection with the UK or simply because it's such an effective pattern.
Let's start at the beginning. In 1966 the British Ministry of Defense introduced Pattern 1960 DPM. It is difficult to classify early British DPM designs because so many different versions have been produced, yet only the type of uniform has ever received an official classification. It is very difficult to tell different "patterns" of Brit DPM just by the fabric itself. You pretty much have to go by the uniform cut.
The photo below is Pattern 68 in an earlier version of DPM. Notice how the colors bleed into each other at the edges, not all variations have this, it's similar to the earlier Pattern 60. This is the type of uniform work in the Falklands War during 1982.
Next up is Pattern 1984. Issued in 1985 due to lessons learned during the war, it would remain standard issue for the next decade. Notice how in this example the pattern and colors remains the same, but printed with sharper edges.
The short lived Pattern 94. It's a darker green than it's predecessors, and some may say it's denser. Again, the main difference is the cut. Larger buttons. Added zipped pockets. Velcro cuffs.
Only 2 years later, comes Soldier 95. It stayed in use until it was replaced by MTP. Only difference is the cut. It is also the first to come in ripstop.
Now for Desert. I won't go on too much about it since the pattern itself is basically identical in all but the experimental 4 color version.
There is also a "tropical" version. I don't have one but it's very similar to the New Zealand pattern. So I'll start there. It's much more yellow and the brown has a red tint to it.
New Zealand also has a Desert pattern. It is a direct copy.
This is Canadian DPM. It's not quite a straight copy of the British pattern. It has an inverse ratio of green to brown compared to the British version. It was only issued to Paratroopers in the 70's and 80's.
Now for the Dutch! The woodland is much more tan and subdued.
In 2002, the Romania adopted two versions known as the M2002 pattern. They are identical copies of British DPM.
Now for the really fun stuff.
This is a four-color desert DPM pattern worn by the Omani Royal Air Force. This design incorporates a bright mustard yellow color.
This is a unique black, white, and gray DPM worn by the Oman Ministry of the Interior.
Probably the most well known of the Omani DPM's, this pattern is a reddish-brown or orange variant and has been in service since the 1980s. It is the standard camouflage pattern of the Royal Army of Oman.
This variant is worn by some Omani Navy personnel. It is not clear which ones.
During the 1980s, the Swaziland King's Bodyguard were issued a brilliant-colored blue/purple DPM pattern camouflage uniform for ceremonial appearances.
In Indonesia, Civilian Organizations and Political Parties have a habit of having their own camo for some reason. Usually in crazy colors. This one is from Partai Golongan Karya (PGK) faction.
Staying in Indonesia, This is an unknown DPM. I assume it is another organization like the last one. I have been told it could also be a commercial pattern imported in the 90's.
Heading back to the middle east again we have a modified variation from Saudi Arabia. It has unique shapes not normally found in standard DPM patterns. Was worn by units of the Saudi National Security Council. It has since been phased out for a digital camo.
This is another modified DPM. Same idea but again with unique shapes. Possibly from Kuwait, but I have not been able to verify. It could also be from Saudi Arabia.
Here we have a number of blue DPM's featuring dark shades of blue and purple. A number of countries use these patterns including Qatar, UAE, Kuwait, and Yemen. I haven't been able to determine for sure what is what as of yet. But I do have educated guesses!
I believe this one is Yemeni. Used by their Police forces.
Probably Qatari. Used by the Internal Security Force. Which is a special operations unit tasked with counter-terrorism, VIP protection, riot control, anti-smuggling operations and general stability of the nation.
I am almost certain this one is Kuwaiti. Used by the Academy of Saad Al-Abdullah for Security Sciences, they are responsible for training recruits for the Kuwaiti Police.
Here is the one worn by Kuwaiti police.
Here is the standard camouflage pattern of the Qatari Armed Forces has since the late 1980s. There are many variations in this by itself.
For the last type, we're heading back to good old Europe. Bulgaria has worn its own version of DPM since it became member of NATO in 2003. It's not a copy of DPM, but a re-imagining. There are 3 versions, Woodland, Desert, And Urban.
Even the Finnish Hunting industry has used it.
This has just barely scratched the surface of DPM variants worn around the world. But it's all I have to show right now. I hope you enjoyed learning about DPM. Up next will be Flecktarn Varients. Not quite as long a list but still very interesting.
Nice write up guys! Interesting to hear the Canadian DPM has inverted area ratios.
Hint & tip: for pattern comparisons rather photograph the back panel of the shirt/jacket as the pattern appearance can be compromised by cmt differences between uniforms.
Also include a size reference in each photo and maybe a colorchart, as the chart blocks are scale references themselves.
Now, any chance for a woodland / lizard write up?

Sometimes we are tempted to live in the future. We spend precious time contemplating and worrying about what may or may not happen in the future. We worry about money. We worry about our families. We worry about our health.
Jesus cautioned against this. "Therefore, do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble" (Matthew 6:34). During the last section of the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus is talking about worry. At the end, he specifically mentions worrying about the future. We should not worry about the future. We should be taking life one day at a time.
Focus on today. What needs to be done today? What are some tasks that you can tackle immediately? What actions can you take today that may help to decrease your anxiety? For example, someone anxious about their health can start exercising, or she can prepare a healthy meal.
Mind your thoughts. It is really easy to go from reasonable planning to obsessing about the future. Be mindful of your thoughts and emotions. Are you feeling anxiety? If so, you've probably crossed over into worry. If you find yourself worrying about the future, don't beat yourself up. Just shift your focus back to the present.
Breathe. It's amazing what a few deep breaths will do to bring you back to the moment.
Experience nature. A nice walk outdoors can really help to relieve stress and dissipate worry. Connecting to nature has a way of bringing us back to the present. We feel the sunshine and the breeze, we see the leaves, we hear children playing. These things ground us in the moment.
Give thanks. Take a look at your life present life. Find five things you are grateful for, and thank God for them. Finding the good in today will help to curb your worry about tomorrow.
Start smaller, if necessary. Sometimes even a day is too much. Sometimes I have to focus on just making it to lunch. If one day is too much , focus on only a portion of the day: an hour, the next five minutes, whatever will help to keep you focused on today.
It is so easy to get caught up in worry about tomorrow. Jesus does not want us to do that, though. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble. Let's take it one day at a time.
As humans, we love to indulge, don't we? We love, love, love things that makes us feel good — that slice of cheesecake; that new pair of shoes; that extra hour of sleep. These are things that bring us pleasure. And as people, we naturally prefer things that are pleasant to us.
This is why we overeat. This is why we are not productive. And this is why we overspend. It feels good to buy that new bracelet. I know it feels good to eat that chocolate cake. And I really enjoy reading through my twitter feed.
Sometimes I try to justify my indulgences. I'll tell myself, "I work hard. I deserve this." Or I will say that I'm treating myself. Sometimes, I'll realize that I don't need those french fries and I'll promise to do better… next time. All this results in me choosing to give in to all of life's indulgences.
Here's the problem: my arguments don't hold water. Just because I work hard doesn't mean that I can buy whatever I want. I don't need to treat myself every day. And if I don't exercise self control today, the chances of me miraculously exercising self control tomorrow are slim.
The bottom line is that if we want it badly enough, we will come up with a reason to indulge— even if the reason is false.
My pastor talks about those little things that we enjoy, but really aren't essential. He calls them "the snacks of life." These are things that are enjoyable, but if one is not careful, they can take the place of the more substantial things in life. Just like snacking on potato chips can ruin my appetite for dinner, filling up on the snacks of life can occupy me so that I have no time or energy for the more important things.
If I spend 45 minutes on facebook, I may not have time to write. If I fill up on cookies, I won't eat healthy foods. If I spend money on jewelry (which I don't need) I might not have money to buy gas (which I do need). There is nothing wrong with facebook, or cookies, or jewelry. They become a problem, however, when they take the place of more important things.
Giving in to every craving or urge can be very destructive. It can cause financial problems. It can impact your health. And it can keep you from accomplishing what you need to accomplish. This is especially true when we pursue pleasures at the expense of priorities.
A friend once told me that a large part of adulthood is realizing that resources are finite. Time is limited. Money is limited. We must keep this in mind when making decisions. We cannot get so focused on pursuing the pleasures of life that we neglect the priorities. This will lead to destruction.
It can be hard to turn away from life's assorted pleasures to focus on the priorities. Each day is filled with opportunities to indulge. As you go about your week, be mindful of your priorities. Watch out for the snacks of life that threaten to pull your attention away. Choose carefully what you give your time and attention to. It may not be pleasant in that moment, but I believe that focusing on the priorities will pay off in the long run.
How do you stay focused on the priorities in your life? I look forward to reading your comments.

A Conversation With, Entertainment, Interview	 April 20, 2019 April 20, 2019
Interview: Comedian Rita Rudner Discusses Upcoming Sellersville Theater Performance, Career Highlights
Legend Rita Rudner has pretty much done it all. Not only has the versatile comedian performed all over the world, including a record 13-year residency in Las Vegas (the longest running solo comedy show in Las Vegas history) as well as dates at Carnegie Hall and sold out tours of Australia and England, but her first solo HBO special 'One Night Stand' was nominated for multiple awards, as were her BBC and A&E specials.
An accomplished dancer and singer, Rudner is also the author of several fiction and non-fiction books and multiple Hollywood scripts. Rudner, along with husband, Martin, are also planning to stage a new musical in New York this summer.
On Saturday, April 27, Rita Rudner will bring her unique and insatiable brand of comedy to The Sellersville Theater in Sellersville, PA for two shows — ne at 6 p.m. and the other at 9 p.m. I recently spoke with her about the upcoming performances in Sellersville, her career and more in this exclusive new interview.
What can fans expect from your upcoming shows at The Sellersville Theater?
Rita Rudner: Lots of jokes in a row and a gown that doesn't wrinkle [laughs]. That's what I deliver every time.
How would you describe your brand of comedy?
I like to do things that everybody can relate to. In this time when everybody's being so torn apart I like to figure out commonalities we all share. It makes for a fun evening, and there's no politics in my act whatsoever.
Where do you draw your inspiration?
It's always from personal experiences but there's no one way to be creative. Sometimes I might hear a word somebody says, or see something somebody does, or I'll say a word accidentally out of the blue. I like to stay attentive.
Did you always know that you wanted to have a career in entertainment?
Yes, but originally only as a dancer. I was a professional dancer until I was about 30 and then switched to comedy.
What made you decide to make the change?
It was the numbers. There were too many dancers and not enough comedians. I realized there was very little chance I was going to be Gwen Verdon or Barbara Streisand — because I was a singer too — but there was a chance I could be George Burns [laughs].

U.S. MARINES TO RECEIVE MORE SQUAD BINOCULAR NIGHT VISION GOGGLES FROM ELBIT SYSTEMS OF AMERICA
FORT WORTH, TEXAS – MAY 16, 2022 – Since 2019, the United States Marines Corps (USMC) has depended upon Elbit Systems of America to provide lightweight night vision systems known as the Squad Binocular Night Vision Goggle (SBNVG) to deliver added clarity, agility, and lethality to their missions. Now, the USMC will gain additional SBNVGs under a recent $49 million order the branch of service placed under an existing Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ) contract with Elbit Systems of America. This ID/IQ is in effect through 2024 and all orders will be fulfilled from the company's Roanoke, Virginia facility.
The SBNVG is a helmet-mounted system that provides superior nighttime viewing in various environments and conditions, improving Warfighter situational awareness and, ultimately, performance. The lightweight SBNVGs include high-performing white phosphor image intensification tubes for enhanced clarity and depth perception, with a battery life that exceeds industry standards.
"For three years, the Elbit Systems of America team has delivered numerous SBNVGs to the U.S. Marine Corps under this contract and we're proud of the continued trust in our night vision systems. Our team understands that wherever Marines are deployed, their important work must get done and our night vision solutions have to provide the added edge to see the mission through," said Erik Fox, Vice President and General Manager of Elbit Systems of America – Night Vision.
"This recent order for additional Squad Binocular Night Vision Goggles signifies that Elbit Systems of America is a partner of choice by the U.S. Marine Corps," said President and CEO Raanan Horowitz. "We're honored Marines are equipped with our night vision solutions and we're committed to continuing to provide our Warfighters with the very best technology we have to offer."

Artsome Artist: Vibhor Mudgil
From wanting to become a cardiac surgeon to becoming a full-time, professional artist, Vibhor Mudgil has had a tumultuous artistic journey. One of 3 boys in a class of 28 in high school, Vibhor's worldview shifted as he was forced to reconcile with differing perspectives and gendered realities of life.
It is with this understanding that he set out to create works that spoke of the feminine experience and the female body, creating expressions of humanity reflected in gendered depictions of intimacy.
Bandana & Bananas
Blending his art with poetry, Vibhor finds inspiration in people and their stories, especially those that deal with ostentatiously taboo subject matters such as female sexuality, intimacy, lust, and human desire. His works are a contemplation of hushed-up conversations and discourses surrounding the body.
Vibhor makes it clear that his works are meant to be a talking point, something to spearhead conversations, and make discussions surrounding erotic or evocative art move beyond the conventional discomfort associated with them, breaking established societal constructs and provide a comforting experience of stigmatized topics.
Finding acceptance in LGBTQ+ spaces, the art community, and Indian art connoisseurs, Vibhor's works have resonated with people around the country. Finding new inspiration during the lockdown, and working with shifting ideas of human sexuality and identities, Vibhor intends to continue his study of people through his signature soft lines, pastel colour palettes, with a sense of comfort for discomfiting conversations.
Explore works by Vibhor Mudgil.

Mr. BUYER. Mr. Speaker, reclaiming my time, the chairman and I both have been to Harlingen, we have been in Deep South, Texas. We understand your challenges. We have also met with many of your comrades down there, who have tremendous enthusiasm for our country.
I appreciate your explanation with regard to the ``whereas'' clauses, that these were the foundation of the GI Forum. I just wanted to make sure that we did not have the implication as a policy record of discrimination by the VA. That in fact there were forms of discrimination by individuals, but our country, who was then run by Presidents Roosevelt, Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy and Johnson, never would have in fact embraced any form of this policy.


The casino at Parc du Golfe, in France records a significantly higher attendance than the average estimation at its opening. Open since June 17, the facility receives 362 people a day on average, an influx well above the targets (300 people per day). The casino reached its record attendance during its opening day with 600 people. The casino is still in its temporary installation, but the numbers are promising. The temporary casino of Vannes offers currently table games and 65 slot machines, but the number of machines should increase to 75 in the coming months. Besides, five new slots should arrive in mid-September. According to Vannes casino CEO, Arnaud Mandret, the facility stands out from the competition with a high payout. A total gain of � 2.79 million has already been distributed since the temporary opening of casino at Parc du Golfe, among which many gains of � 6,000 on slot machines from 1 cent to � 2.
Restaurants and bars also play an important role in the casino in the afternoon, 600 meals served since the opening, as the game space realizes nice peaks in the evening. The provisional casino of Vannes does not blush over other casino in the region, as that in Carnac, Quiberon, Larmor-Plage and Arzon. The revenues of Crouesty casino, in Arzon has even declined by 4% in July. The casino manager, Olivier Bourr�e, announced that three gains of � 9,800 was earned in July on 75 slot machines. The hotel also offers two blackjack tables to its players.


Israel called Mr Trump's move "historic" but there has been sharp international criticism.
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas called Mr Trump's announcement "deplorable", saying the US could no longer be a peace broker.
The decision to recognise Jerusalem as Israel's capital puts the US at odds with the rest of the international community's view on Jerusalem's status.
Speaking at the White House, the US president said he had "judged this course of action to be in the best interests of the United States of America, and the pursuit of peace between Israel and the Palestinians".
"Today, I am delivering," the US leader said, referencing the campaign pledge.
Instead he said the US would support such a solution if agreed to by both sides - not the unequivocal endorsement the Palestinians were looking for. He didn't offer the Palestinians anything, and the speech came across as an endorsement of Israel.
"Jerusalem has been the focus of our hopes, our dreams, our prayers for three millennia," he tweeted.
Mr Abbas, the Palestinian leader, said in a pre-recorded TV speech that the city was the "eternal capital of the state of Palestine".
He earlier warned of "dangerous consequences" through a spokesman, a sentiment echoed by other Arab leaders, who said there could be unrest.
Hamas said that Mr Trump's decision would "open the doors of hell" on US interests in the region.
On Tuesday Saudi Arabia's King Salman had said that the move "would constitute a flagrant provocation of Muslims, all over the world".
UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres said it was "a moment of great anxiety".
"There is no alternative to the two-state solution. There is no Plan B," he said.
Prime Minister Theresa May said she disagreed with the US decision, which was "unhelpful in terms of prospects for peace in the region"
EU chief diplomat Federica Mogherini voiced "serious concern"

Lady Elizabeth smiled contentedly in her carriage as she travelled along the Lagan Valley to Hillsborough. She was slowly becoming familiar with the flat countryside around her and was very content with her situation in life. She had recently left behind one the grandest aristocratic homes in England to marry the extremely wealthy Lord Rawdon and set up home in Ireland. Here she had the resources and the opportunity to make an impact on society.
She was happy for another reason; she was away from her mother's influence. The Countess of Huntingdon, a very notable Lady in English high society, had royal blood in her veins. However the Countess had caused a great stir in English society by becoming an evangelical Christian and befriending a host of preachers, most notably John Wesley and George Whitefield. Elizabeth had grown up knowing these men personally and often listened to them and to other famous preachers who were invited to preach in her home.
Elizabeth confessed to her brother that she had married Sir John Rawdon to get away from home and escape her mother's religious influence. She said "my situation in Ireland is happy – extremely so, in separating us so far asunder."
Elizabeth refused all contact with her mother, though one of her mother's preaching friends kept calling when he was passing through Ireland. John Wesley received a welcome from Lady Elizabeth's husband each time he came and he was obviously greatly impressed with Elizabeth's exquisite taste. He wrote of that home as "the best finished of any I have seen in Ireland."
Lady Elizabeth was a very able and decisive lady and used her position of authority to benefit others, even her tenants. During a revolt by farm tenants caused by high rent levels, evictions
and local taxation, the village of Moira was under threat. The warning, later believed by Elizabeth to be malicious, was that the Hearts of Flint had "vowed to hang every Moira person at their own door" unless they joined the protest. Lady Rawdon was in residence and she wrote in haste to ask for soldiers to come to their aid. Her concern was not that her village people might attack her, for she said she was "perfectly persuaded the infatuated people who surround me are incapable of doing me an injury." She wanted military support to prevent intimidation of her villagers.
In later years in Dublin, Elizabeth was known for her great hospitality. Her home was constantly used to entertain; she was the leading Dublin Whig hostess. It was said that "Lord Moira had certainly one advantage above most men, for he had every assistance that true magnificence, the nobleness of manners peculiar to exalted birth, and talents for society the most cultivated could give him, in his illustrious Countess."
Elizabeth had many abilities; she managed her family properties but also managed the estate belonging to friends who were abroad for a number of years. She even had time to manage an election campaign. When she died in 1808, her obituary said her home was "the favourite seat of taste and splendour," and describes her as "a most liberal patroness… her great income was spent in acts of charity and unbounded liberality … . Her Ladyship's death is an irreparable loss to the poor of Dublin, as well as those who daily participated of her splendid board." She died at seventy-eight years of age, having achieved more than most women in Ireland but did she die happy?
John Wesley seems sure that earlier in life Elizabeth had professed faith in Christ. He wrote a letter to her on March 18, 1760, some of which follows.
My Lady, it was impossible to see the distress into which your Ladyship was thrown by the late unhappy affair without bearing a part of it, without sympathizing with you. But may we not see God therein? (Wesley was referring to a tragic event in the family circle.)
He speaks sometimes in the whirlwind. Permit me to speak to your Ladyship with all freedom; not as to a person of quality, but as to a creature whom the Almighty made for Himself.
You were not only a nominal but a real Christian. You tasted of the powers of the world to come. You knew God the Father had accepted you through His eternal Son, and God the Spirit bore witness with your spirit that you were a child of God.
But you fell among thieves… They by little and little sapped the foundation of your faith.
Where are you now? Full of faith?… Is it now not high time that you should awake out of sleep?
Now God calls aloud! My dear Lady, now hear the voice of the Son of God, and live!
I am, my Lady,
John Wesley.
Two months after writing that letter, John Wesley visited Moira twice in the space of a few days to see Lady Elizabeth and to preach. Nowhere does he record Elizabeth's reaction to his
letter; only God knows the secrets of the heart.
He knows the secrets of your heart and mine right now. Nothing is hidden from Him.
Examine yourselves to see if your faith is genuine. Test yourselves. Surely you know that Jesus Christ is among you; if not, you have failed the test of genuine faith.
2 Corinthians 13:5. (NLT)
Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
Matthew 7:21.
Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; let him return to the Lord, that he may have compassion on him, and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
Isaiah 55:7. (ESV)
As the horse ambled steadily along the Lagan valley, the small man in the saddle spent most of his time reading. It was a pleasant July day in 1756; gone were the thunderstorms that drenched him the previous day between Newry and Lisburn. Occasionally he lifted his eyes and admired the surrounding countryside. It was different from much of what he had seen across Ireland and reminded him of his homeland; "much like Berkshire," he said. He noted the fruitful vales on each side of the road and the well-wooded hills. This was his first visit to Ulster and the horseman was impressed.
He was a travelling preacher; his name was Rev. John Wesley. His destination was Lurgan but he planned to stop in Moira, for he knew the Lady in the Castle. Wesley had been very friendly with her mother, the Countess of Huntingdon and had often met Elizabeth in her home in England, before she had married Sir John Rawdon four years earlier. Now would be an opportunity to meet her again and see her little eighteen month-old son Francis for the first time.
Elizabeth's husband gave the visitor a very warm welcome and prevailed upon him to preach to his tenants. Wesley agreed and Sir John, who was the Churchwarden, sent a servant to the clergyman to request the key of the Church, so that the visitor might preach to the people. Despite Sir John's stature in the church and society, the clergyman declined, saying he would never tolerate Methodists.
Sir John was greatly annoyed by the Rector's refusal but was determined that nothing should prevent Mr. Wesley from preaching. He sent the bellman through the town to summon all the people to the lawn in front of the Castle. There Mr. Wesley stood on the top of a long flight of steps before the grand entrance hall and preached to the people.
Four years after Wesley's first visit, he returned. This time he came to visit the residents of Moira House and to seek to get an opportunity to speak to Elizabeth. She was in considerable distress since her cousin Earl Ferrers had murdered his land steward just a few months earlier. Wesley had written her a letter a few weeks previously.
The date was Thursday 1st May 1760. Wesley once again took the opportunity to preach once more, as well as spend time with Lady Elizabeth. "I rode to Moira. Soon after twelve, standing
on a tombstone near the Church, I called a considerable number of people to know God and Jesus Christ whom He had sent."
Just over one week later, on Monday, 12th May, he determined to return to Moira. It was unusual for Wesley to return to a small village on such a preaching tour, for he liked to preach in the larger communities where he could reach more people with the Good News of Jesus Christ. That Monday morning he had preached in the Market House in Ballymena to a large number of people and recorded, "God was there of a truth. I found no such spirit in any congregation since I left Dublin."
Rev John Wesley preaching at Moira in May 1760
Perhaps Wesley knew that Ferrers had been hanged the previous Monday and so determined to return to Lady Elizabeth. It was afternoon when he rode into Moira. Almost certainly he went to the Castle and then once more preached outside St. John's Church. This time he wrote down what he thought of the reception he received from his hearers in Moira. "I preached to a very civil congregation but there is no life in them." These were to be Wesley's last words about the people of Moira - but not his last thoughts. Sir John and Lady Rawdon were very much upon his heart.
Wesley, who was now fifty seven years old, was still remarkably active. The next day he rode to Cootehill in Cavan. He says, "My horse was thoroughly tired. However with much difficulty, partly riding, and partly walking, about eight in the evening I reached Coot-hill." No mention was made of how tired the preacher was! He preached when he arrived and the next morning, at five o'clock and again at eleven o'clock, in the Market house. Then with a fresh horse he rode to Belturbet! By the end of the week he was in Sligo. There he sat down to write to Sir John and to share his thoughts and concerns. He spoke of the spiritual conversations he had with Lady Rawdon the week before.
"My Lord, I have taken the liberty to speak to Lady Rawdon all that was in my heart, and doubt not that your Lordship will second it on every proper occasion. The late awful providence I trust will not pass over without a suitable improvement. God has spoken aloud, and happy are they that hear and understand His voice."
Wesley was convinced that Elizabeth once believed on Jesus Christ but he had great concerns now for her spiritual condition. His words in the letter to her a few weeks earlier included this challenge:
"Did not your love of God grow cold? Did not your love of the world revive? … . Where are you now? Full of faith? Looking into the holiest, and seeing Him that is invisible? Does your heart now glow with love to Him who is daily pouring His benefits upon you? … .. Are not you a lover of pleasure more than a lover of God?... And oh what pleasure! What is the pleasure of visiting? Of modern conversation? Is there any more reason than religion in it? I wonder what rational appetite does it gratify?"
Wesley was desperately concerned that Lady Rawdon's love of pleasures and social standing were taking her away from God.
But he also had some concerns to share with Sir John himself. The letter continues:
"In one respect I have been under some apprehension on your Lordship's account also. I have been afraid lest you should exchange the simplicity of the gospel for a philosophical religion. O my Lord, why should we go one step farther than this, 'We love Him because He first loved us'?
I am Your Lordship's most obedient servant."
Wesley returned to the Moira area on several occasions during the following years, no doubt to continue to urge those in the Castle to seek after God. He passed this way in June 1762 and June 1773 en-route between Lisburn and Lurgan. By then Sir John had become the Earl of Moira. On 6th July 1771 he "spent two hours very agreeably in Mayra" on his journey between Ballinderry and Newry. But there is no record of his ever again preaching in Moira and no account of spiritual conversations or letters between him and the Earl and Countess. Surely he continued to care for their souls and pray for them. It seems he was still accepted by them, for Wesley was a welcome visitor in later years at their exceedingly grand home in Dublin.
The man who preached to tens of thousands all over the world, still had a love for the souls of individuals and passionately desired to see them saved. That is the desire behind this booklet: that you might know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour. The Apostle Paul had a great passion for his people and wrote:
Brothers, my heart's desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved.
The word of faith we are proclaiming: If you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved.
As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame." For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile - the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." Romans 10:1,8-10,13.

Roy Carlsen, 1923-2018
Published 1:00 am Thursday, July 5, 2018
Funeral services for Roy C. Carlsen, 94, of Albert Lea will be at 10 a.m. Saturday at Round Prairie Lutheran Church. The Rev. Kent Otterman will officiate. Interment will be at North Round Prairie Cemetery. Military honors will be accorded by local veterans organizations. Visitation will be from 5 to 7 p.m. Friday at Bayview/Freeborn Funeral Home and one hour prior to the service at the church Saturday. Online condolences are welcome at www.bayviewfuneral.com.
Roy Carlsen
Roy died peacefully Monday, July 2, 2018, at Good Samaritan Society of Albert Lea.
Roy Clifford Carlsen was born Nov. 13, 1923, in Albert Lea, the son of Carl and Hansina (Jensen) Carlsen. Roy was a lifelong resident of Freeborn County, except for a stint in the Navy and a few years in California. He owned and operated Carlsen's Refrigeration for many years, servicing milk coolers, freezers, refrigerators and air conditioners. As a kid he attended country school, rode his horse, always had a dog and loved to hunt.
Roy married Lillian Jensen on June 14, 1946. They were very happy in their little house on the Carlsen farm. Soon they had two children, Julie and Steven. Roy enjoyed the 4-H ball games, quite often being the umpire. They also went fishing at local lakes, bringing home lots of bullheads that he always cleaned and Lillian fried. The rule was if you caught it or shot it, you cleaned it.
Roy and Lillian always enjoyed dancing. They were members of the square dance club in Albert Lea for many years. They also loved to waltz, polka and schottische. They bought a recreational vehicle and did some traveling. For many years they drove to Arizona or Texas for an extended vacation. Roy became very good at the scroll saw, making many wall hangings. It was fun to find them in different homes and places where he had given them as gifts.
Those Roy left to remember him are his wife, Lillian; daughter, Julie (Douglas) Wallin; son, Steven (Christine) Carlsen; grandchildren Mark (Amy) Wallin, DeAnn (Mike) Read, Karen (Gabriel) Beal, Janet (Eric) Sparrow, Brian (Kelli) Wallin, Peter (Katie) Carlsen and Paul (Sara) Carlsen; great-grandchildren Spencer, Jacob and Ryan Wallin, Joseph and Justin Read, Calvin (Brooke) and Kristin Beal, Carsen and Hudson Sparrow, Matthew and Lance Carlsen, and Ben and Emma Carlsen; and great-great-grandson, Roan Beal.
Roy was preceded in death by his parents Carl and Hansina; sisters Guida Dahl, Gladys Hunt and Dagna (Sandy) Langdon; and great-grandchildren William and Kylie Sparrow.
Memorials are preferred to North Round Prairie Cemetery.

Q: Exclusive react state hooks I have some boolean react state hooks, where only one should be allowed to be true at a time. Their states depend on a string variable being passed through. I currently have this code, which works fine:
  const [a, setA] = useState(false);
  const [b, setB] = useState(false);
  const [c, setC] = useState(false);
  const [d, setD] = useState(false);

    if (foo == "string1") {
      setA(true);
      setB(false);
      setC(false);
      setD(false);
    }
    if (foo == "string2") {
      setB(true);
      setA(false);
      setC(false);
      setD(false);
    }
    if (foo == "string3") {
      setC(true);
      setA(false);
      setB(false);
      setD(false);
    }
    if (foo == "string4") {
      setD(true);
      setA(false);
      setB(false);
      setC(false);
    }

I'm using them for conditional styling, so they have to be boolean (maybe I need to rethink my approach?).
However, it's very verbose. Is there a better way to write this?

A: Use a single state variable instead, whose value contains the currently "active" one:
const [active, setActive] = useState();

if (foo === 'string1') {
  setActive('a');
}
if (foo === 'string2') {
  setActive('b');
}
// etc

A: I'd use a single state member instead (probably with something enum-like, but I'll use a simple number here):
const [value, setValue] = useState(0);

If you need a, b, etc. for convenience in the function code, you can set those up like this:
const [value, setValue] = useState(0);
// **IF** you really need discrete variables during the function's code
const a = value === 0;
const b = value === 1;
const c = value === 2;
const d = value === 3;

A: Use useReducer:
import * as React from 'react';
