MCT KICKS OFF THE YEAR OF THE TIGER WITH ROARING SUCCESS OF ALIRA
Subang Jaya, 22 January, 2022 – MCT Berhad (MCT) today kicked off the Year of the Tiger with roaring success at the Chinese New Year open house cum grand launch of Alira, its latest freehold 5.6 acre residential project spanning over an 88-acre Metropark township.
Alira has seen overwhelming response from buyers since the initial registration of interest started in 2021, and to date has seen 50% take up rate for the units released. Apart from the resort inspired living experience, buyers are attracted to the well thought off design layout of the units; as well as the facilities podium that provide and promote natural cross ventilation. Alira's amenities appeal to the work-life integration, taking into account the Covid-19 'lifestyle' factor such as Working From Home (WFH). Among the amenities offered are co-working space with meeting pods and open desk configuration, and more than 40 other types of amenities on the facilities and podium and roof top level. Besides that, residents looking for a healthy lifestyle will benefit from the dedicated cycling track and a nature-infused jogging track surrounding the water spine feature inspired by the Yarra River in Melbourne, Australia within the 9.2 acre central park.
Present at the launch were Mr. Teh Heng Chong; Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Apollo B. Tanco; Chief Operating Officer, Mr. Chee Kok Keong; Director of Sales & Marketing and key management of MCT Berhad.
Latest attraction in Subang Jaya
MCT's CEO, Teh Heng Chong when approached commented "The positive response is an indication of Alira being the latest attraction strategically located in the mature neighbourhood of Subang Jaya, as well as the resort amenities that cater to the current lifestyle needs. Buyers can expect that in the next 2 years, the commercial component within the bustling Metropark township, would be ready to provide conveniences and al fresco dining facilities overlooking the lake".
Teh continued to say "Alira is also a 5 minute walking distance to GEMS International School, has direct access from Federal Highway and within close vicinity to MNCs, and with the central park located right in front of the property, the residence will be recharged to lead a healthy lifestyle. With future developments slated to be happening in its vicinity such as a proposed shopping mall and a medical hub, on top of the lifestyle commercial hub consisting of retail and restaurants currently, it will continue to offer the complete lifestyle needs of the residents.
Functionality and convenience
"Functionality and convenience were amongst the key criteria in mind when Alira was designed," said Chee Kok Keong, MCT's Director of Sales & Marketing. It is an idyllic modern home that blends the convenience of the city and the serenity of nature. Phase 1 of this launch consists of 492 units with price ranging from RM493,800 for the 695 to 998sq.ft. units of the high rise apartments, and from RM802,800 for the 1,048sq.ft. limited edition low-rise villa and is expected to generate a Gross Development Value (GDV) of RM316.2mil".
To make the deal more exciting, MCT, in partnership with Maybank, is offering Maybank Houzkey scheme where purchasers will enjoy lowest monthly instalment, 100% financing and no payment during construction period.
"With attractive loan interest rate from financial institutions, coupled with the current market environment, now is the best time to purchase a home," he continued. Despite the expiry of the Government's Home Ownership Campaign (HOC) period, it didn't have much of an impact of our launch as we still see a strong demand from purchasers and this is reflected in the encouragingly high booking rate".
When asked about the status of the project, Teh remarked "Construction work has commenced and we aim to complete the project and deliver the units in 2025. This will indeed be a busy year for MCT. We intend to expand to new growth centers, as evident by the launch of Aetas Damansara in Petaling Jaya in 2020 as well as a couple of project launches that we have in the pipeline for this year, namely USJ City Point and Casa Embun, an affordable residential project in our Cybersouth township. We will continue to focus on the affordable to mid- range market but we are ready to venture upmarket if we come across good opportunities in strategic locations, which fits into our business expansion strategy," he concluded.

On The Israeli Eugenic Project and the Radiation of Arab Jews in the 1950's (must watch)

The documentary alleges that 100,000 children were irradiated, and that 6,000 of them died shortly after receiving treatment. Many of the 'ringworm children' later developed cancer.

(LONDON) - Directed by David Belhassen and Asher Hemias. The documentary won the award for "Best Documentary" at the Haifa International Film Festival and was featured as a documentary at the Israel Film Festival in Los Angeles in 2007.
It is claimed in the documentary that the X-ray radiation used on the children was thousands of times beyond the maximum recommended dose and it is suggested that the program was funded by the United States in order to test the effects of large radiation doses on humans.
In fact, the treatment in Israel was the same that was used elsewhere in the world.
The documented dosages given to the Israeli children were similar to (if not less than) that administered to children treated for ringworm at New York University Hospital between 1940 and 1959.
A study from the early 1950s found X-ray treatment effective in almost all cases of ringworm. The documentary alleges that 100,000 children were irradiated, and that 6,000 of them died shortly after receiving treatment. Many of the 'ringworm children' later developed cancer, and in 1994 the Knesset passed a law mandating the Israeli government to provide them with compensation.
Thanks Dr. Gabi Weber for making me aware of this film.

Mark the date: May 12, 2017.
This is the day the "ransomworm" dubbed "WannaCry" / "Wannacrypt" burst — literally — onto the scene with one of the initial targets being the British National Health Service. According to The Guardian: the "unprecedented attack… affected 12 countries and at least 16 NHS trusts in the UK, compromising IT systems that underpin patient safety. Staff across the NHS were locked out of their computers and trusts had to divert emergency patients." A larger estimate by various cybersecurity firms indicates that over 70 countries have been impacted in some way by the WannaCry worm. As of this post's creation time, a group with the Twitter handle @0xSpamTech has claimed responsibility for instigating the attack but this has not yet been confirmed.
What is involved in the attack, what weakness(es) and systems does it exploit, and what can you do to prevent or recover from this attack? The following sections will dive into the details and provide guidance on how to mitigate the impact from future attacks.
However, WannaCry ransomware deviates from the traditional ransomware definition by including a component that is able to find vulnerable systems on a local network and spread that way as well. This type of malicious software behavior is called a "worm" and the use of such capabilities dates back to 1988 when the Morris Worm spread across the internet (albeit a much smaller neighborhood at the time).
Because WannaCry combines two extremely destructive capabilities, it has been far more disruptive and destructive than previous cases of ransomware that we've seen over the past 18-24 months.
here: https://blockchain.info/address/ — there have been reports of this also corrupting drives, adding a destructive component as well as a ransom-recovery component to the attack.
However, all versions of Windows are likely vulnerable and on May 13, 2017 Microsoft issued a notification that included links to patches for all impacted Windows operating systems — including Windows XP.
and, this usage figure likely does not include endpoint counts from countries like China, who have significant use of "aftermarket" versions of Windows XP and other Windows systems, making them unpatchable.
The "worm" component takes advantage of a Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability that is present in the part of Windows that makes it possible to share files over the network (known as "Server Message Block" or SMB). Microsoft released a patch -MS17-010 - for this vulnerability on March 14th, 2017 prior to the release of U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) tools (EternalBlue / DoublePulsar) by a group known as the the Shadow Brokers. Rapid7's Threat Intelligence Lead, Rebekah Brown, wrote a breakdown of this release in a blog post in April.
Vulnerability detection tools, such as Rapid7's Metasploit, have had detection capabilities for this weakness for a while, with the most recent Metasploit module being updated on April 30, 2017.
This ransomworm can be spread by someone being on public Wi-Fi or an infected firm's "guest" WiFi and then taking an infected-but-not-fully-encrypted system to another network. WannaCry is likely being spread, still, by both the traditional phishing vector as well as this network worm vector.
Ensure that all systems have been patched against MS17-010 vulnerabilities.
Identify any internet-facing systems that have not been patched and remediate as soon as possible.
Employ network and host-based firewalls to block TCP/445 traffic from untrusted systems. If possible, block 445 inbound to all internet-facing Windows systems.
Ensure critical systems and files have up-to-date backups. Backups are the only full mitigation against data loss due to ransomware.
NOTE: The Rapid7 Managed Detection & Response (MDR) SOC has developed detection indicators of compromise (IOCs) for this campaign, however we are only alerted once the malware executes on a compromised system. This is not a mitigation step.
UPDATE - May 15, 2017: For information on how to scan for, and remediate, MS17-010 with Nexpose and InsightVM, please read this blog.
Some percentage of these systems may be Linux/UNIX servers emulating the SMB protocol but it's likely that a large portion are Windows systems. Leaving SMB (via TCP port 445) open to the internet is also a sign that these systems are not well maintained, and are also susceptible to attack.
If you'd like more information on this particular ransomworm as seen by Project Sonar or Heisenberg Cloud, please contact research [at] rapid7 [dot] com.
Many thanks to the many contributors across Rapid7 who provided vital information and content for this post.

Bottger Mansion History
Miguela Bottger maiden name mystery solved?
Miguela Bottger maiden name. That's the next mystery to solve.
A while back, I found the record of marriage of Miguela to Charles Bottger in September of 1897. It was in the Marriages, Book "C" and "D", Jan. 1855 thru Dec. 14, 1900, San Felipe de Neri RCC, Alburquerque, Territory of NM—Microfilm FHL 016-644, and had been translated from Spanish into English. Additionally, in the introduction to the book, it noted that from pages 42 to 125 or so, the person writing the record had extremely "careless" handwriting, and some of the writing was illegible. So what I found, as follows, is from 1897, translated from Spanish–explanations to follow:
"Today the (blank) of September of 1897, I married Mr. Charles A. Buttager baptized Luteran, son of J. L. and J. L. Buttager with the dispensation of Mixed Religion, with Miguela Baca widow of Mr. Hain, deceased, and daughter of Gertrudes Baca. Witnesses, Tony Michellach and Mrs. Michellach. 'I the undersigned promise to Miguela Baca, my wife, to leave her free to exercise of her own religion during her whole lift [sic] and also promise that the children who may be born of our union shall all be baptized in the Catholic Church and brought up in the doctrine of the same Church.' Signed C. A. Buttager"
Here are the explanations: Bottger's name was misspelled, as usual. This is the first reference that Charles Bottger was Lutheran (also misspelled). At that time, Miguela was the widow of Max Stein, so with very poor handwriting and translating a foreign name from Spanish to English, one can understand where "Stein" could be rewritten as "Hain."
But where did the name Baca come from? We do know that her mother was Gertrudes Garcia, who was a widow with one child (Miguela) and married Tom Post. So who was Baca?
I have been working my way through Albuquerque, A Narrative History by Marc Simmons, and came upon the answer. On page 106, in discussing the substantial Elena Gallegos Land Grant. Shortly after 1712, land was granted Elena Gallegos, widow of Santiago Gurule. The author noted that
"As was often done in colonial New Mexico, she retook her maiden name upon her husband's death."
Therein lies the key. If Miguela was the widow of Max Stein, who died in 1889, she reverted to her maiden name of Baca, which is how her name appeared when she married Charles Bottger in 1897. So why is that different than her mother's name? Because Gertrudes Garcia was also twice a widow. Her maiden name was Garcia. She married a man named Baca, who was Miguela's father (hence, Miguela Baca), and then was widowed. Subsequently, she married Thomas D. Post, Miguela's stepfather, and was known as Gertrudes Garcia de Post. When Thomas Post died in 1893, Gertrudes survived him and her name reverted back to Gertrudes Garcia, which was her name at the time of Miguela's marriage in 1897.
I'm finding that there are very subtle historical and cultural traditions like this that make a huge difference in research, and the answers can come from unexpected places.

LOL! I don't think I'll make my mom mail a check, but an author friend of mine warned me not to give away copies to everyone or you don't make any money on a book, so I think I will go ahead and accept payment. Plus, I can tell a potential publisher that I've already SOLD one copy!
Brian & Kathy Sogard purchase the 2nd and 3rd copies of this yet unpublished, but 10x rejected, book. About 15 queries remain out in the Universe. If 15 more rejections come in, then I will re-vamp the query and proposal for a second wave of submissions.


#> discharge, with three distinct safety mechanisms.
#None of which does the least bit of good when you drop one muzzle first.
#pistols don't suffer from this defect.
I've heard this bad rap against the 1911A1 (henceforth referred to as Colt) many times both in this group and in the magazines. That dropping a Colt on its muzzle being capable of igniting a primer goes contrary to my intuition. I finally decided to test this theory. I have done two tests. The first tries to scale the problem. The second involves actually dropping a gun.
Test #1 is to determine how much force is required to compress the firing pin spring sufficiently for the business end to protrude from the bolt face. Once this value is determined, the firing pin can be weighed and the number of Gs required to exert this force can be computed.
Note that this is the minimum force needed to make the firing pin barely protrude. This does not account for the force required to actually fire the primer. I tried to get a rough idea of what this force is by putting a primer that had been inserted in a case, placed the casing in a barrel and slide assembly minus the firing pin spring and then placed weight on the firing pin sufficient to cause the first dent in the primer. The primer was a Winchester large magnum pistol primer. I ran out of weights at 4 kg. No dent. That would be equivalent to about 1000 G of force. If anyone has factory specs on the required primer force, I'd love to have them.
Keep in mind, that these static tests do NOT account for the pretty significant aerodynamic counterforce involved with a firing pin propelled at sufficient velocity to fire the primer. Once the firing pin protrudes into the bolt hole, the pin and bolt forms a fairly tight cylinder with air trapped inside. This damps the pin and absorbs some portion of the force.
Based on these results, I got brave and proceeded on to the next test. An old slide, bushing, barrel and the Gold Cup firing pin and spring were assembled. A case with a live primer was chambered and the whole assembly was duct taped to make sure the barrel stayed in battery. Then the whole assembly was dropped muzzle first down various lengths of pipe onto my asphalt driveway. The pipe guided the assembly and made sure the muzzle remained pointed straight down.
The longest pipe I could find was 15 feet long. Several drops from this altitude failed to fire the primer. The primer was marked but not enough to call it a dent. I did one more drop with the firing pin spring removed. The primer was dented pretty severely but it did NOT detonate. I suspect that with several drops, one or more might fire the primer. I got bored and my slide was getting boogered up so I stopped with the one drop.
Based on these tests, I feel confident in saying that there just ain't no way dropping a Colt on its muzzle is going to inertially discharge the thing. I could believe that dropping a tinkered-with or hot-rodded gun could cause the sear to break, dropping the hammer and firing the gun. I would believe that people who cause ADs would claim that dropping the gun caused it 'cuz they were embarrassed. But I would have major doubts that dropping a gun even with the firing pin spring removed would do anything.
Methinks the Colt has gotten a very bad rap and that the firing pin blocking gimmick placed on Series 80 and subsequent Colts is just that – a lawyer gimmick. Looks to me like the original Colt designers did their homework.


The Cabinet has given final approval to the draft of the 'Mental Health Act, 2018′ aimed at taking necessary steps for overall welfare of the mental patients in the country and ensuring their rights to the property.
The cabinet extended thanks to outgoing Finance Secretary Muslim Chowdhury on his retirement from civil service today. The government appointed him as the Comptroller and Auditor General of Bangladesh for four years, Zeaul Alam said.

SpartanNash sets aside pharmacy hours for at-risk groups
by: WOODTV.com staff
Posted: May 4, 2020 / 11:33 AM EDT / Updated: May 4, 2020 / 11:33 AM EDT
In this undated courtesy photo provided by SpartanNash, a pharmacist scans a prescription for a customer.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — SpartanNash is setting aside time for at-risk shoppers to visit its store pharmacies.
In this undated courtesy photo provided by SpartanNash, a pharmacist bags a prescription for a customer.
The company announced Monday that pharmacies at all 62 of its stores, including Family Fare, D&W Fresh Market and Forest Hills Foods, will reserve 8 a.m. to 9 a.m. Tuesday and Thursday for at-risk shoppers, including older adults, pregnant women and those with compromised immune systems.
Walmart offers contact-free, pickup hour for those most at-risk
SpartanNash, Meijer install sneeze guards at stores
Meijer, SpartanNash stores to close overnight for restocking
SpartanNash pharmacies also offer free same-day prescription delivery. The service began April 1 and is available to customers who live within 10 miles of the store where their prescription is filled.
The company says all prescription deliveries are touchless, with drivers dropping off the prescription on a customer's porch, calling the customer, and watching from a distance to ensure the customer retrieves their order.
SpartanNash stores' new pharmacy hours coincide with its grocery shopping hours previously aside for at-risk groups, which are 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Meijer and Aldi also offer shopping hours for at-risk groups on Tuesdays and Thursdays, from 7 a.m. to 8 a.m. and 8:30 to 9:30 a.m., respectively. Walmart offers contact-free grocery pickup service from 7 a.m. to 8 a.m. at select stores.

John the Baptist is a fundamental key to understanding the end of the end of the 70 Weeks of Daniel 9!
In confirmation of the previous article, take a quick look at another key text that fully supports the idea that the taking away of Israel's sin- which was confined to the seventy weeks of Daniel 9 – was to be at the Day of the Lord in judgment. Be sure to read the first installment as well. Our focus is on the ministry of John the Baptist as we investigate his critical– yet often overlooked- role in understanding Daniel 9.
In this, one of the most famous and challenging of all of Paul's discussions, the apostle patently anticipated the salvation of Israel, the taking away of her sin. Just as Isaiah 40 and Daniel 9 foretold the time of the taking away of Israel's sin at the Day of the Lord and the full arrival of the kingdom and the judgment, Paul anticipated the salvation of Israel, the taking away of her sin at the coming of the Lord. While commentators seek – sometimes desperately – to avoid the eschatological nature of Romans 11 it cannot be denied. Paul is not speaking of Jesus' incarnation or even the cross, per se.
This is not, by any means, to deny, to exclude, or to depreciate the indisputable fact that the cross was the means by which that salvation would be purchased. It is simply to acknowledge what Paul – and Isaiah and Daniel – says: Israel's salvation would fully arrive at the coming of the Lord. This assessment is confirmed by a quick examination of two of the prophecies that Paul quotes from directly in Romans 11, and that is Isaiah 27 and Isaiah 59. (For a fuller discussion of Paul's citation of these two OT prophecies see my book on Elijah mentioned below). I will give here some bullet points from those two passages.
Isaiah 26:20f – We have the coming of the Lord for the avenging of the martyrs.
Isaiah 27:1-2 – The destruction of Leviathan (Satan) in the day of salvation.
Isaiah 27:10 – The taking away of the sin of Israel. This is the text that Paul quotes in Romans 11.
Isaiah 27:11f tells us that all of this would take place when the Lord would no longer have mercy on the people He had created, when the fortified city and the Temple were destroyed. It should be noted here that Isaiah directly cites the Song of Moses about Israel's last days. In her last days, the people of no understanding would come to their last end (Deuteronomy 32:19f).
In Isaiah 27 we have the identical constituent elements that would be given later in chapter 40. We have the salvation of Israel at the coming of the Lord in judgment to take away Israel's sin. Since Isaiah 27 anticipated the taking away of Israel's sin and since Daniel 9 foretold the taking away of Israel's sin within the seventy weeks, this logically demands that unless one can prove definitively that Isaiah 27 & 40 and Daniel speak of different salvations of Israel, at different comings of the Lord, then Isaiah 27 would be fulfilled within the seventy weeks of Daniel 9.
In a direct parallel with Isaiah 27, chapter 59 foretold the salvation of Israel at the coming of the Lord in judgment of Israel for shedding innocent blood (vs 3-7, 16f) in fulfillment of the Lord's covenant with her: "This is my covenant with her, when I take away her sin." (Other chapters in Isaiah e.g. Isaiah 52, 61-66, also speak of Israel's salvation at the Day of the Lord but for brevity we cannot discuss those).
Once again, at the risk of redundancy, unless one can prove definitively that Isaiah 59 and Daniel speak of different salvations of Israel, at different comings of the Lord, then Isaiah 59 would be fulfilled within the seventy weeks of Daniel 9. The implications for putting Romans 11 within the proper framework and context should be apparent by now.
Romans 11:25-27 foretold the coming of the Lord to take away the sin of Israel.
Romans 11 would be in fulfillment of Isaiah 27 / 40 / 59.
The taking away of Israel's sin of Isaiah 27 / 40 / 59 is the taking away of Israel's sin foretold in Daniel 9:24.
The taking away of Israel's sin foretold in Daniel 9 was confined to the seventy weeks.
Therefore, the taking away of Israel's sin at the coming of the Lord foretold in Romans 11:25-27 was confined to the seventy weeks of Daniel 9.
What we have in Isaiah 27, Isaiah 40, Isaiah 59 are predictions of the salvation of Israel. That salvation is, in each of these texts, posited at the time of the judgment of Israel for shedding innocent blood. It is the time of the coming of the kingdom. Unless those prophecies of Israel's salvation are totally different from Daniel 9, then, as we have observed they had to be fulfilled within the seventy week countdown. I suggest that these intra-textual and inter-textual connections allow us to make some definitive conclusions about the seventy week countdown, specifically, the time of the end of the seventy weeks.
It is suggested among some partial preterists and full preterists that the seventy weeks ended in AD 34-35. But, if the salvation of Israel, i.e. the taking away of her sin, was to occur at the Day of the Lord in judgment, as Isaiah 27 / 40 / 59 clearly teaches, and if the taking away of her sin is confined to the seventy weeks, then to say that the seventy weeks ended in AD 34-35 is to say that the Day of the Lord occurred in AD 34-35. That is patently untenable.
You cannot posit the taking away of Israel's sin at a different time, in a different context from that established and demanded by Isaiah 27, 40 or 59. Each of those texts is very clear that the taking away of Israel's sin was inseparably tied to the coming of the Lord in judgment for the avenging of the blood of the martyrs. Yet, that is precisely what is demanded by the suggestion that the seventieth week ended in AD 34-35. If the taking away of Israel's sin at the establishment of the kingdom, at the coming of the Lord for the avenging of the blood of the martyrs and the judgment did not take place in AD 34-35, then the seventieth week of Daniel 9 did not end in AD 34-35.
The taking away of Israel's sin would be at the coming of the Lord in the judgment of Israel- Isaiah 27 / 40 / 59 / Romans 11.
The taking away of Israel's sin is confined to the seventy weeks of Daniel 9.
Therefore, the taking away of Israel's sin of Daniel 9- confined to the seventieth week– would take place at the coming of the Lord in judgment of Israel. This precludes any possibility that the seventieth week ended in AD 34-35. To suggest that the seventieth week ended in AD 34-35 divorces the taking away of Israel's sin from the coming of the Lord. It posits the taking away of Israel's sin prior to the very clear, unequivocal time of the taking away of Israel's sin established by Isaiah 27 / 40 / 59. This is simply untenable.
When Paul wrote Romans 11, AD 34-35 was two decades in the past, meaning, supposedly, that the seventieth week had ended. But, if the seventieth week had ended, then Israel's sin had been removed: "Seventy weeks are determined… to put away sin." That clearly violates Paul's explicitly stated hope in Romans 11 that the taking away of Israel's sin – at the coming of the Lord – had not yet taken place.
So, if the coming of the Lord to take away Israel's sin was still future to Paul – and it was – and if the taking away of Israel's sin is confined to the seventy weeks – and it was – then since the taking away of Israel's sin at the Day of the Lord in Romans 11 was still future to Paul, this logically demands that the end of the seventy weeks was still in Paul's future when he wrote Romans in the mid to late AD 50s.
☛The salvation of Israel is confined to the seventy weeks.
☛The salvation of Israel would be at the coming of the Lord in judgment in vindication of the martyrs.
☛Therefore, the coming of the Lord in judgment belongs within the seventieth week.
You simply cannot end the seventieth week before the coming of the Lord in the kingdom and in the judgment to put away Israel's sin. That is gross anachronism.
The taking away of Israel's sin would be at the coming of the Lord in judgment of Israel for shedding innocent blood – Isaiah 27 / 40 / 59 / Daniel 9.
The taking away of Israel's sin would occur within the seventy weeks- Daniel 9:24.
The seventy weeks ended in AD 34-35 – This is the view of, among others, partial preterist Gary DeMar, who says the seventieth week ended 3.5 years after the cross. (Gary DeMar, Last Days Madness, (Powder Springs, GA; American Vision, 1994), 232).
Therefore, the Day of the Lord in judgment of Israel for shedding innocent blood, and to take away Israel's sin, had to have occurred no later than AD 34-35.
To say that this is untenable and un-biblical is an understatement. The indisputable fact is that all four of these texts, Isaiah 27 / 40 / 59 / Daniel 9, contain, either explicitly or implicitly, the prediction of the taking away of Israel's sin at the coming of the Lord in judgment. They also contain the motif of martyr vindication – which of course, Jesus posited at the judgment of Jerusalem (Matthew 23).
Since Daniel 9 posits the salvation of Israel (including martyr vindication) within the seventy weeks, it is untenable to say that the seventy weeks ended in AD 34-35, while the judgment of Israel at the coming of the Lord to take away her sin, came years after the end of the seventieth week. That is an overt violation of what these prophecies of Israel's salvation predicted.
All of the connections above bring us full circle back to John the Baptizer as The Voice. Since John was The Voice to announce the Day of the Lord– the time when Israel's sin would be taken away (Isaiah 40:1-2; Isaiah 27 and 59), and since the time when Israel's sin would be taken away is Romans 11:25f– at the Day of the Lord – then John's message and ministry should be determinative for placing Romans 11 in the proper context, and that was the imminent Day of the Lord at the judgment of Israel!
Likewise, since John the Baptist was The Voice to announce the Day of the Lord– the time when Israel's sin would be taken away (Isaiah 40:1-2- also Isaiah 27 and 59), and since the time when Israel's sin would be taken away is confined to the seventy weeks, this means that the Day of the Lord to take away Israel's sin, was not in AD 34-35. It means that the time of the judgment and the taking away of Israel's sin did not and could not happen until the coming of the Lord in judgment- which was when the city and the temple was destroyed at the time of the end (Daniel 9:27).
John's repeated and urgent warning to Judah and Jerusalem that the time for her harvest was now upon them, that "the wrath" was about to come (the Day of Wrath of Malachi 3-4) and that the axe was already at the root, (directly echoing Malachi 4:1-3) serves as powerful and irrefutable proof that Daniel's 70 weeks were to end in the judgment of Israel, her judgment for shedding innocent blood. That was in AD 70. All attempts to posit the end of the seventieth week of Daniel 9 before the coming of the Lord in the kingdom and the judgment short circuit the seventy week countdown. All efforts to have the end of the seventieth week prior to the coming of the Lord in judgment are in overt denial of Isaiah 27, Isaiah 40, Isaiah 59 and Romans 11:25-27.
Any effort to posit the end of Daniel's seventieth week in our future denies the context of Isaiah 27 / 40 / 59 / and Daniel 9. It also denies the role, the ministry and the message of John the Baptist as The Voice. His message – his very person – places the coming of the Lord, the judgment, the kingdom, the salvation of Israel in the first century.
Any interpretation of Daniel 9 and the seventy weeks that ignores the ministry and the message of John the Baptist is guilty of ignoring a vital interpretive key for understanding Biblical eschatology.
Be sure to get a copy of my book, Elijah Has Come: A Solution to Romans 11:25-27. This book has an excellent discussion of the critical eschatological role of John the Baptist.


Farewell (Again), Claudio Vargas ~ The Bucky Channel - The World of Sports from Wisconsin's Perspective.
And the loser in the whole Capuano promotion turns out to be our old friend Claudio Vargas. I assume that Vargas just edged out Jeff Suppan for the honors of who would be the odd man out in that bullpen, but again something about that hefty contract of Suppan's makes it hard to let him go... for some reason. But I can't really argue about Vargas getting designated for assignment, as he had a 7.32 ERA in 19.2 innings of work this season. Vargas really never saw that much time, he again was more reserved for the mop up role.
As for Capuano, he's coming up to Milwaukee today, but still no word on what his defined role will be. The Brewers do not currently have a starter scheduled for their Wednesday game against the Marlins, so I wouldn't be surprised to see Cappy get the nod then.

Home Features Gardens in Time Remembrance: the lost gardeners of World War I
Remembrance: the lost gardeners of World War I
A century ago the 'War to end all wars' was still raging. The battle of Passchendaele, also known as the third battle of Ypres, had dragged to its close on 10th November 1917 after three solid months of fighting. As we look towards next year's anniversary of the ending of the war in 1918, in this Remembrance season it's timely to think of the toll the war took on horticulture, the great gardens of the time and especially the huge numbers of professional gardeners who were lost.
Before war broke out in 1914, the big gardens and estates throughout Britain had teams of gardeners keeping extremely high standards of gardening, including growing exotic plants from seed, fruit and vegetable growing, the cultivation and breeding of roses, and tree pruning.
Huge amounts of money and labour was spent on the big estates, with vast heated glasshouses growing fruit and vegetables for the dining table, producing cherries for Christmas dinner, melons from hot houses, and cut flowers for grand displays throughout the 'big house'.
But when the war began, many of the young gardeners were keen to enlist, and as it dragged on, conscription brought in many more, including older men. Many were knowledgeable, experienced, well trained professional gardeners, and many did not return. Knowledge and experience was lost.
The senior gardeners who were too old to fight were left to manage on their own or with young boys who had to take on extra work – and in some cases women were taken on; the older men had trained the teams of labour that were gone.
Since the gardens at Heligan in Cornwall have been restored, the story of the gardeners who went to fight in World War I is now well known; 16 enlisted and only eight returned. Visitors can find the names scrawled on a wall in the Thunderbox Room – the gardeners' lavatory in the vegetable garden. Their story was replicated throughout the country.
At the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, the death toll was 37, while 20 were lost from the Royal Horticulture Society's garden at Wisley. The horticultural trade was hit badly as well: seedsman Arthur Sutton of the famous seed firm lost 23 men, including four of his five sons. The officer class was severely hit. Heirs to the big estates were killed, one of them the eldest son of Julius Drewe, owner of Castle Drogo in Devon (designed by the architect Edwin Lutyens). Adrian Hendicott Drewe who had been educated at Eton and Cambridge died on the front line at Ypres in 1917, alongside the men from his platoon – between 80 and 100 men. His father never recovered from the loss.
By the start of World War One, the Veitch family of Exeter had changed the British landscape. They had introduced new plant species into gardens all over the country and started the Chelsea Flower Show. But the war brought dramatic changes to the family and its work.
In 1914, the firm's Chelsea nurseries closed, so the Exeter branch of the company was the only Veitch firm in operation. It had landscaped the University of Exeter and the city's Higher Cemetery. The Veitch nurseries were specialising in trees and shrubs and were based in New North Road, Exeter. Peter Veitch, a former plant collector, was running the family business.
His son, John Leonard, had been trained at Kew and studied horticulture in France and Germany before the war. He was the intended heir to the business. It's not known how many of the Veitch nursery men went to war, but John Leonard was one of them. He was part of the 7th (Cyclist) Battalion of the Devonshire Regiment and then the Army Cyclist Corps.
In 1917, Peter Veitch received the Royal Horticultural Society's Victoria Medal of Honour in recognition of his work. In May 1918, he lost his son and heir. John Leonard Veitch is buried at Thiennes in France. The Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) – one of the world's largest horticultural organisations – created the cemetery where he lies.
Great houses in the West Country relied on large gardening staff. After World War I, gardens suffered as many never returned
At the great estate of Stourhead the only son and heir, Harry Hoare was killed in 1917 leading a charge on Mughar Ridge in Egypt. A captain in the Queen's Own Dorset Yeomanry, he had been sent home to recover several times from injury and ill-health, but despite advice from military doctors, every time he had returned to the battlefield. His devastated parents had to decide on their future and the estate. In 1946 the estate was gifted to the National Trust.
Back home, not only old men and young boys tried to keep the big gardens going as numbers of women were employed. The Women's Land Army was established in 1917, and although most of the 23,000 recruits worked in agriculture and forestry, between eight and ten per cent worked in market and private gardens. Not all were welcome and after the war most returned to domestic duties.
From the beginning of the war in 1914 German prisoners of war arrived in Britain and were set to work. Some were sent to Dorchester, to the empty artillery barracks at Poundbury. They were allowed out under guard and relations with the townsfolk were cordial; they swept streets, and tended the public gardens; one even was employed by the writer Thomas Hardy in the garden of his home, Max Gate.
Allotment gardening spread all over the country with food shortages hitting households (80 per cent of our food came from overseas before 1914) and people were urged to 'grow your own', the phrase coined before the war ended. As would happen in World War II, public land was ploughed up to grow vegetables.
The war changed society in Britain forever. The big gardens lost much of their skilled labour and were hit by escalating costs. Lavish structures such as the Great Stove, the enormous glasshouse at Chatsworth were demolished. It would take another world war to end the golden era of these gardens but with the loss of so many skilled gardeners, horticulture took generations to recover.
"Some corner of a foreign field that is forever England"
In 1915 a mobile Red Cross unit started recording the names of the dead at the front line and planting flowers round their makeshift graves. This led in 1917 to the establishment of the imperial war Graves Commission. The new cemeteries were conceived as gardens. A design by Sir Edward Lutyens at Forceville on the Somme became a template; a walled garden with plain headstones with planting suggested by Getrude Jekyll. A simplified form of this endures -low growing alpines in front of headstones, roses and perennials in between, bringing to these 'foreign fields' scents and textures of a traditional cottage garden. Finding more than one million permanent-resting places took until 1938. One year late the commission's work started again.

Decision makers do not make choices in a vacuum. They make them in an environment where many features, noticed and unnoticed, can influence their decisions. The person who creates that environment is, in our terminology, a choice architect. In this paper we analyze some of the tools that are available to choice architects. Our goal is to show how choice architecture can be used to help nudge people to make better choices (as judged by themselves) without forcing certain outcomes upon anyone, a philosophy we call libertarian paternalism. The tools we highlight are: defaults, expecting error, understanding mappings, giving feedback, structuring complex choices, and creating incentives.

Intel Reports Strong Quarterly Profit, Slowing Data Centre Revenue
Intel Corp's strong quarterly profit beat was overshadowed by concerns about slowing revenue growth in its highly profitable data centre business, sending its shares down about 5.6 percent in after-market trading.
Chief Executive Brian Krzanich has looked to weather a slump in demand for chips used in personal computers by focusing on the business of supplying chips for high-end servers.
The world's largest chipmaker reported data centre revenue of $4.31 billion in the fourth quarter ended December 26, missing consensus estimate of $4.42 billion, according to Jefferies & Co.
Revenue in the business rose only 4 percent from the preceding quarter, compared with the 8 percent growth in the third quarter.
"I think companies are probably not upgrading their own data centre as they know they are eventually going to convert to the cloud," said Kevin Cassidy, an analyst with Stifel Nicolaus and Co Inc.
"So they are going to put Band-Aids on their current servers and not upgrade them," Cassidy said.
In October, Intel had cut its 2015 revenue growth forecast for the data centre business, as companies slash spending due to weak macroeconomic growth.
Excluding items, Intel forecast revenue of $14.1 billion, plus or minus $500 million for the first quarter ending March.
The midpoint of this range is down 6 percent from the fourth quarter, the company said.
"While the outlook for the first quarter reflects some caution for overall demand, particularly in China, we continue to expect solid growth in the business in 2016," Krzanich said on a post-earnings call.
Revenue in the personal computer business fell about 1 percent to $8.76 billion from a year earlier.
Global personal computer shipments fell 10.6 percent in the quarter ended in December from a year earlier, IDC said on Tuesday, the largest decline since the research firm started tracking PC shipments.
The fourth quarter of 2015 marked the fifth consecutive quarter of worldwide PC shipments decline, according to rival research firm Gartner.
Intel completed its $16.7 billion purchase of programmable-chip maker Altera Corp in December, a deal that adds a new class of products to Intel's portfolio.
The company's net income fell to $3.61 billion from $3.66 billion in the fourth quarter.
On a per share basis, earnings were flat at 74 cents.
Net revenue rose to $14.91 billion from $14.72 billion.
Analysts on average had expected a profit of 63 cents per share and revenue of $14.80 billion, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
Intel's shares were down 4.7 percent at $31.20 in extended trading on Thursday.

Osoba urges Buhari to sign new Electoral Act, supports direct primary
Global Patriot Staff December 4, 2021	Local, News, Politics Leave a comment 13 Views
President Buhari
By Adémólá Òrúnbon
The former Ogun State Governor and Chieftain of All Progressive Congress (APC), Chief Olusegun Osoba has thrown his weight behind direct primary as a means of selecting candidates of all political parties as contained in the newly passed electoral act amendment bill.
Osoba while addressing a delegation of Senators across the political parties and geo-political zones of Nigeria who visited him in London to wish him speedy recovery from a knee surgery, according to Media Adviser to Senator Solomon Adeola, Chief Kayode Odunaro, appealed to President Muhammadu Buhari to sign the newly passed electoral act into law, stressing that the President is also a product of direct primary.
"I have a feeling that he will sign it. The President himself is a product of direct primary. He submitted himself to direct primary in 2019 and heaven did not fall. After he subjected himself to direct primary in all the wards, he also subjected himself to a National Convention to ratify his election at the primary.
"And quote me, I had cause to tell him at our National Caucus during Edo election that "Mr. President, if you can subject yourself to direct primary and at the National Convention, I do not see why anybody should be afraid of direct primary," Osoba said.
The former governor stated that the 9th National Assembly has done very well for the country in supporting what they think is right for the executive and the country, adding that this is the payback time for the executive to pay the National Assembly back which overwhelmingly passed the new electoral law to include direct primary.
"In the case of direct primary, we are running a Presidential system of government patterned after that of the United States of America. It is direct primary of USA that we copied. Why are we selective? If we don't want direct primary, then let us go back to parliamentary system of government like India where party caucuses select candidates.
"We cannot be selective on some aspects of the Presidential system that we practice while jettisoning what is its democratic content. I am confident that the President as a product of direct primary will do the right thing. I want to commend all of you. We need to democratize. The idea of 'we' governors handpicking should stop. Let the people have a say. I commend the 9th National Assembly and appeal to the President in the interest of the country and democracy to sign the new electoral law," Osoba said.
In his remarks, the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Finance, Senator Solomon Olamilekan Adeola, said the members of the Senate were in London and decided to pay him a get well quick visit as his wealth of experience is needed as Nigeria forges ahead in difficult times, adding that it is gratifying to see that he is fastly recovering from his surgery as evidenced in his personally coming to receive them at the door from the first floor and going back up with them to the sitting room upstairs.
Senator Kashim Shetima who spoke on behalf of other Senators stated that they came as Nigerians devoid of any political party or regional colouration to wish him well as an elder Stateman at 82 who has. Bbn contributed to the nation through journalism and service in government, while some of them are still growing up, stressing that the nation still needs his wealth of experience in forging ahead in these times.
"As Senators of the Federal Republic, all of us are interested in the growth and progress of our nation. We did not come here for partisan consideration but to seek wisdom from an elder Stateman that had contributed positively to the growth and development of the nation and still willing to do more even in advanced age" he stated.
Among the Senate delegation include: Senator Solomon Adeola (APC, Lagos West), Senator Kashim Shetima (APC, Borno Central), Senator Isah Jubril (APC, Kogi East), Senator Micheal Nnachi (PDP, Ebonyi South), Senator Ayo Akinyelure (PDP, Ondo Central), Senator Gershon Bassey (PDP, Cross River South), Senator Yusuf Abubakar Yusuf (APC, Taraba Central), Senator Sadiq Sulaiman Umar (APC, Kwara North), Senator Tokunbo Abiru (APC, Lagos East), Senator Bashiru Ajibola (APC, Osun Central) and Senator Hassan Mohamed Gusau (APC, Zamfara Central).

Dredge or die Port of Baltimore: Navigable channel is essential in cutthroat maritime world.
ENVIRONMENTALISTS won't like aspects of the Glendening administration's plan to dispose of dredged material from Chesapeake Bay harbor channels. Neither will penny-pinching conservatives. Or some watermen. Yet implementing the program is key to keeping the Port of Baltimore competitive in a cutthroat maritime industry.
This is no small matter. The port accounts for over $2 billion a year in economic activity. It creates employment for 62,500 Marylanders. It generates $141 million in state and local taxes. It is an economic engine that has to be fine-tuned and kept in good working condition.
Channels must be continually dredged and major projects must be undertaken to improve waterway entrances for ships traversing the bay. But past dredging has been so controversial that politicians have avoided tough decisions on where to put the muck. The result: A delay in even basic silt-removal that threatens the viability of Baltimore's port.
Gov. Parris Glendening's plan is a welcome breakthrough. Maryland now has a long-term strategy for dredged spoil. It doesn't please everyone, but there's a grudging consensus.
Most controversial is open-water dumping. This option is essential to meet the port's needs. But state officials, including environmental experts, think there is a way to do it that minimizes damage to bay habitat. The most likely site: An old dump area north of the Bay Bridge with a craggy bottom watermen avoid.
To offset opposition, the state will also contribute to an oyster enhancement program based on the volume of material dumped in open water. This could significantly boost the oyster recovery effort in the bay.
Open dumping will stop after six years, but it is the linchpin for improving key approaches -- the Brewton and Tolchester channels -- and embarking on a vital deepening of the C&D; canal. That last effort could make it faster and cheaper for vessels to stop at Baltimore.
Some of the proposals are expensive, such as restoring Poplar Island and constructing an artificial island. Others are inexpensive, such as raising the height of the north part of Hart-Miller Island and reactivating a containment site on Cox Creek. Overall, the plan is a wise investment because it solves the port's dredge-disposal problems for two to three decades.
As port director Tay Yoshitani put it, this dredging program gives Baltimore a license to compete against other nearby ports. A long-term solution offers him a competitive edge, something that Baltimore sorely needs in its quest for more container ships and cargo.

Bill To Kill Georgia's Electric-Car Tax Credit Rises From The Dead
John Voelcker February 25, 2015 Comment Now!
State politics can be a funny thing.
Last week, a Georgia House bill to end the state's $5,000 tax credit for purchase or lease of a battery-electric vehicle was voted down by its Ways & Means Committee.
But yesterday, it mysteriously reappeared and was unanimously passed by voice vote after it was deemed only to have been "tabled."
DON'T MISS: Fight To Watch: Georgia Plans To Alter Electric-Car Tax Credit (Dec 2014)
As reported by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, which called the circumstances "curious," members of only one party were present at the time of the voice vote on the bill, HB 122.
That bill's sponsor, Representative Chuck Martin, had pushed for a similar bill last year, but it died on the last day of the legislative session.
Martin told the Atlanta Business Chronicle a year ago that while he supports the adoption of electric cars, he doesn't feel that taxpayer funds should go toward subsidizing that goal.
Meanwhile, a separate but concurrent bill (HB 220), sponsored by Representative Ben Harbin, makes different adjustments to the provisions of the state tax credit.
Most importantly for electric-car buyers, the bill continues the credits, but at a lower level, and expands them to plug-in hybrids as well as pure battery-electric vehicles.
Under the Harbin bill, the credits through December 2017 for purchase or lease of a plug-in vehicle would be $2,000 if the battery capacity is 4 to 10 kilowatt-hours (i.e. every plug-in hybrid except the Chevrolet Volt and Cadillac ELR).
ALSO SEE: Will Georgia's $5,000 Electric-Car Tax Credit Be Axed In 2015? (Jun 2014)
The credit rises to $3,000 for vehicles with batteries larger than 10 kWh, which encompasses the ELR, the Volt, and every battery-electric car on the market.
During 2018 and 2019, the two categories of credits would fall to $1,000 and $2,000 respectively.
The HB 220 bill continues a $2,500 tax credit for other forms of low-emission vehicles, but removes Flex-Fuel vehicles--those capable of running on E85 ethanol--from eligibility,

Green Car Reports spoke last night to a Georgia political insider who has followed the negotiations closely.
That source reports that the Harbin bill "has momentum" among members at large, and expects the Georgia Senate to be less friendly than the House to legislation that kills the credit outright.
It's also noteworthy, the source suggested, that the president of the Georgia State Senate himself drives an electric vehicle.
MORE: Georgia Advocates Ask Legislature To Keep Electric-Car Tax Benefit (Feb 2014)
The reduced tax credits bring Georgia more in line with incentives in California, the state with more electric cars on the road than any other.
The Golden State, however, provides its incentives as purchase rebates--a check in the mail--rather than a credit on an individual's state tax return.
California presently rebates $2,500 for the purchase or lease of a battery-electric car, and $1,500 for a plug-in hybrid.

You may see that from time to time packet has wrong address. I've sniffed traffic before WAN port of router and it seems to be correct. The other point is that I see those packets even when I don't put tcpdump to promiscuous mode so I think that packet are correct on medial layer but get somehow modified after (or during) receive.
Problems is greatly reduced when router is under load (in that case I see only something about 4% packet loss on same target).
Yes!I got the same problem. TP741. Wireless may be Ok. but when using lan with wire, somtimes I get wrong packets. at that time. the wired pc can ping any client linked to the router via wireless.
Just one more point. If it will help. I just testing it on internal bridge and it seems to be working correctly. That means I do not see any packets with incorrect destination mac addresses.
It seems to me that there can be some alignment problems with packet buffer and DMA controller.
Thanks for the tip. I will do this ASAP (in fact I have new image already build) but I have to keep router up for now. Will keep you informed.
Packet loss is down to something like 10-15% from 30-40%.
OK scratch that part about this bug happening less. After some time it seems to me that its more or the less same as before. May be a little bit better, but definitely not solved.
Another point. It apparently breaks DHCP, or may be broadcasts for wired clients. Wireless is OK. I've managed to take my entire home network from internet.
Happy me that I stored older image of firmware. I'm now on r25835 and everything seems to be working. So the bug was introduced in last 4 months.
broadcast issues fixed in r27705, r27706. other issues might be fixed by the commits before those.
Unfortunatelly I must inform you that on version r27711 I still cannot get DHCP through wired connection (no problem with wireless) and I still see packet loss on simple ping (tcpdum still shows same behavior as reported). Is there anything I can do to help?
Other people have reported that my commits fix at least the broadcast issues. Did you clean your kernel tree after updating?
Yes, but I can try to build from scratch again. I've replaced this router with anothe so I can test without disrtupting my internet connection.
So I've tested it once more. I've tested current backfire and current trunk and both seems to be working correctly. I don't know why it did not work first time. So I think you may consider this solved.
I have a WR941NDv5 device, which seems to be equivalent to WR941NDv4. I use the WR941NDv4 profile and it works fine on r25690 trunk.
my real mac address is 54:e6:fc:4a:9f:1c, while in some packets 54:e6 is mis-replaced to some random bytes (Meiko_4a:9f:1c or AcsipTec_4a:9f:1c above).
if mac address in reply packet is incorrect, the ping program will not see the reply, even though tcpdump can see it. putting eth1 into promisc mode does not solve the problem.
another strange behavior is, even if eth1 is not in promisc mode, tcpdump can see all packets regardless of the destination mac address (i use tcpdump -p).
i have tried to use binary search to figure out which commit caused this problem, and found that in r26716 the probem had already existed.
how easy is it for you to reproduce this issue, how frequently does it happen?
i can't reproduce it on my own devices, so if i come up with any patches, can you test them for me?
it always happens after several minutes after boot. if you have any patches, i would like to test them for you on my device.
ps. i am not sure if i need to try the above ag7240-align.patch. i can attach more information here for my device if you need.
maybe the bug is not completely fixed. the router behaves normally just after boot, but the bug still appears after several hours on my device.
i don't know what information i need to upload for you to debug. it looks like a mysterious bug, and it is a little harder to reproduce than before, because i need more time to wait for its appearing after boot.
OK, looks like I need to write some code to detect the DMA glitches and do a quick reset. I'll let you know when I have a new patch for testing.
Please try current trunk (r27975), as usual: this requires cleaning the kernel tree after updating.
With these changes it should properly detect DMA issues and do a fast reset. When this happens, the link status will change to down and then right back up again, you can see this in your logs.
Please run this until this link state change happens (maybe a few times) and see if the latency is still normal afterwards.
on r27979 the problem still exists on my device. packet loss happened before i could see any link state changes in syslog (i expected messages such as "kernel: eth1: link up").
I can try to set up a proxy to the SSH server of my device for you, if it is helpful for debugging.

If you have noticed a pattern of this bug happening only on hot days it may be worth trying to keep the iPhone in a cooler spot whenever possible.

In December, Tony and I got engaged and we celebrated with a few very close friends and kept it very small and quiet. But we did make plans for a wedding later this month, at one of the first Inns in Vermont where gay weddings started taking place from what I gather. We did this for several reasons. One, we've been to a lot of places but never to Vermont. In fact, it's the only state in New England we've never set foot in and we've both always wanted to go. Two, we did consciously choose this place for the historical significance and because it's in Vermont. And that's not something we do often. But in this case, and because we're keeping it small, we both wanted to do something special. After all, it's been a twenty-one year engagement and we still won't be legally married when we return to our own home state after the wedding…Pennsylvania.
We could have gone to New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, or even New York. But this place sounded so nice. And the owners are just wonderful.
I still don't have the exact dates, but it will be at the end of this month. I spoke with the owner of Phineas Swann today and explained we've been dealing with family issues and she was more than willing to work with us…and around our dates. This place is also very pet friendly, and both our dogs will be coming with us.
The Phineas Swann Bed and Breakfast Inn is the perfect place to celebrate your intimate Vermont wedding – we specialize in elopement packages and small to medium size weddings of up to 75 guests. Intimate weddings for both straight and gay couples are our specialty!
At the Phineas Swann Bed and Breakfast Inn, we believe your Vermont wedding should reflect your personal style, so we offer several choices for your wedding event. Call our wedding coordinator Lynne at (802) 326-4306 and learn more!
I will definitely be posting more, and with photos.
I've been following what's been happening in Utah with gay marriage and posting about it here. There's a page full of posts with links. And now there's news of a 12 year old boy in Utah who is out there actively supporting, and fighting for, the rights of his two moms.
I don't think I'll ever stop feeling as if I've been gutted when I read things like this. On the one hand I think this kid is spectacular, and on the other it kills me to see him even having to do something like this. To defend what most people just take for granted is painful to see.

Das Parfum
by Tom Tykwer Retro
In 18th century France, Grenouille has been obsessed with smells since childhood. He takes up an apprenticeship with perfumer, Baldini, and soon exhibits a talent for scents. When he catches the scent of a plum seller, he becomes completely fascinated. While trying to restrain her, he kills her – and her scent dies. Grenouille then becomes obsessed with the idea of creating the perfect perfume – and more women are found dead on the streets of Paris.

Der C116 war ein als Einstiegscomputer gedachter Heimcomputer von Commodore. Er war ein Modell der Commodore-264-Serie und dem ursprünglichen Konzept, einen Computer in der Preisklasse der preisgünstigen Konkurrenzmodelle von Sinclair zu veröffentlichen, am ähnlichsten. Verkauft wurde er nur in Europa, obwohl es Prototypen mit der amerikanischen NTSC-Videonorm gab. Wie allen Computern der 264er-Reihe war ihm kein großer Erfolg beschieden. Der C116 wurde, wie die technisch ähnlichen C16 und Plus/4 nur kurze Zeit als BASIC-Lerncomputer im Set mit Datasette (Commodore 1531) und BASIC-Lernkassette angeboten.

Der C116 erschien im Jahre 1984. Technisch war er mit dem C16 identisch, hatte aber ein kleineres Gehäuse mit einer Gummitastatur. Er verfügte über nur 16 KB RAM, davon 12 KB für BASIC verfügbar (2 KB im Grafikmodus). Er besaß keinen Userport, womit die Fertigung aufgrund eines eingesparten ICs gegenüber dem Plus/4 günstiger wurde. Laut Entwickler Bil Herd lag das ursprüngliche Preisziel bei nur 49 US-Dollar.

Eine Erweiterung des RAM auf 64 KB war nicht vorgesehen. Selbst mit extern angeschlossener RAM-Erweiterungen musste die Platine modifiziert werden. Besser und stabiler war die interne Erweiterung durch einen Ersatz der beiden RAM-ICs und Einlöten einiger Drähte. Mit einem so aufgerüsteten C116 konnte die überwiegende Mehrzahl der Plus/4-Programme verwendet werden.

Today's photos are those of Archival Designs' Award Winning Plan, Blanchard.
Sales of newly built, single-family homes rose 15.6% to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 437,000 units in January, according to figures released by HUD and the U.S. Census Bureau. And amidst this quickened sales pace – the fastest since July of 2008 – the months' supply of new homes for sale fell to its lowest level in nearly eight years. Sales gained in every region in January. The Northeast posted a 27.6% increase while the Midwest registered an 11.1% gain and the South notched up 3.2%. Most impressively, the West showed a 45.3% gain for the month.
Meanwhile, inventory of new homes for sale held unchanged at a relatively meager 150,000 units in January, which amounts to a 4.1 months' supply at the current sales pace – the tightest supply since March of 2005. Commenting on the latest data, NAHB Chief Economist David Crowe said that rising consumer demand bodes well for the upcoming spring buying season, but the razor-thin supply of new homes for sale is very concerning at a time when we are still only about half-way back to what could be considered a "normal" level of activity.
Builders need to be able to refresh their inventories to keep the momentum going, he said. "While we can't expect to see double-digit sales growth every month, consumers are definitely coming off the fence as prices start to rise, and builders in some cases are having a tough time keeping up." He blamed challenges related to credit availability, poor appraisals, dwindling lot supplies, spot shortages of skilled labor and rising materials costs for their role in weighing down the recovery.
Remodelers now have a unique opportunity to see how their business stacks up against the competition. NAHB BuilderBooks has released the 2012 edition of the Remodelers' Cost of Doing Business Study, a national study of remodelers' business practices and financial performance that was conducted by NAHB's Economics and Housing Policy Group.
The study allows remodelers to evaluate their financial performance compared with the industry as a whole and with remodelers of similar type and size. This new resource gives remodelers an inside look at other remodelers' financial books by providing data about profitability, cost of sales and expenses. It contains a wealth of data and analysis to help remodelers boost profitability, increase efficiency, set realistic budget targets and improve upon their business practices. NAHB members can access The Remodelers' Cost of Doing Business Study, 2012 Edition as an e-Book for a discounted price of $59.99 (non-member cost is $89.99) at ebooks.builderbooks.com.

From free climbing to kayaking, powder skiing to mountain biking, we saw a collection of award winning films from the 2009 Banff Mountain Film Festival that were variously inspirational, amusing and heartbreaking.
It also made me realise what a load of tinsel town dross comes out of Hollywood compared to the real lives of the people featured in these films – give me a shot of a man on a board or skis anyday as opposed to overpaid whiners like Mel Gibson (and even worse he's an Aussie….!).
Talking of film festivals, this is perhaps a pertinent point to bring to the attention of the two readers of this blog (and I'm one of them) news of the First St. David's Surf Film Festival, due to be held Oct 22-24 2010.

Q: How to get a class object from class name I want to get a class reference from class object in Python. Normally I use class name as a valid reference, but it does not always work.
Consider this code:
import inspect
import unittest
import pywin32_testutil
mro=inspect.getmro(pywin32_testutil.TestProgram)
mro[0]
> <class 'pywin32_testutil.TestProgram'>
mro[0].__module__ + '.' + mro[0].__name__
>'pywin32_testutil.TestProgram'
pywin32_testutil.TestProgram
> <class 'pywin32_testutil.TestProgram'>

From the object I'm able to determine class name and using class name I can get class object. However it does not always work. Continuing the example:
mro[1]
> <class 'unittest.main.TestProgram'>
mro[1].__module__ + '.' + mro[1].__name__
> 'unittest.main.TestProgram'

so far so good, however unittest.main.TestProgram reference is invalid:
unittest.main.TestProgram
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: type object 'TestProgram' has no attribute 'TestProgram'

How can I work around that?
