"prognosticated." YourDictionary, n.d. Web. 13 April 2019. <https://www.yourdictionary.com/prognosticated>.
If the porta hepatis was torn it prognosticated a plundering of the enemy's land.
From the Fijian and Andaman islander who exhibits abject terror at seeing himself in a glass or in water, to the English or European peasant who covers up the mirrors or turns them to the wall, upon a death occurring, lest an inmate of the house should see his own face and have his own speedy demise thus prognosticated, the idea holds its ground.

There is a bond between spirituality and social commitment that is summed up in ethics: the spiritual elevation of the individual guides it to responsible action in every environment. In the Gospel and in the Scared Books of the other religions there exists the so called Golden Rule, "Do to others what you wish others will do to you": here is the proposal for a public set of ethics that is easy to translate into the ethics of history.
Thinking of "the common good" by thinking first of the well-being of the individual is a sure way of finding previously unimagined solutions, but also for sharing ideas and proposals to better the quality of life in our cities, even from the ecological point of view. From the global to the particular, the commitment to health and psychophysical well-being generates a good life which is part of a better society.
There is a profound relationship between space and society: the quality of the environment in which we work, live and relax also has a decisive influence on the kind of relationships and therefore on the quality of life of every person. Looked at from the angle of fraternity, human relationships and the inhabitants' need of beauty can point to solutions and ideas that will have the whole person at the center and therefore "furnish a house" that is good for all.
The human and cultural formation both of the individual and of society is a fundamental richness for society. If fraternity is a way of thinking and acting seen from the pedagogical aspect, it can propel a united model of research that will bring out the direct relationship between theory and practice, between words and concrete life. This is because the idea of the common good also depends on the idea of the person who is being referred to.

Canadian academic Sally Lerner,was keynote speaker at the second annual conference of the Universal Basic Income (UBI) NZ Network, held in Wellington late last month. Sally is co-ordinator of the Futurework internet conference.
Sally Lerner strongly supports the concept of a Universal Basic Income (UBI) because she believes it will let paid and unpaid work to be shared more fairly and could open up employment for the low-skilled while giving them sufficient income to participate in society. She argues that the UBI will mean more real choice of jobs, and higher pay for the most unpleasant jobs in society. There would be work for all who want it, the poverty trap can be avoided, and consumer spending maintained among people most likely to contribute to local economies.
In this special feature, we present some highlights from Sally Lerner's keynote address to the recent UBI-NZ National Conference held 26-28 March 1998, in Wellington.
Over the past two decades, policy makers in New Zealand, Britain and Canada have moved from `European-style' social democratic initiatives that supported investment in community well-being and the universality that made this politically acceptable toward increasing infatuation with the `tougher' U.S. stance. The U.S. model has favoured targeted social spending, yet has widened the gap between rich and poor while holding down official unemployment figures by proliferating low-wage McJobs and prison sentences.
Where this model prevails, middle and low-income families have been losing ground, and more jobs are low-paid and precarious. The rich grow wealthier, a few obscenely so, while an atmosphere of insecurity and anxiety about employment becomes palpable among the rest of the population.
Re-engineering, downsizing, `rightsizing' in all their versions created increasing numbers of underemployed, insecurely employed and unemployed. While youth unemployment is publicly discussed as the most urgent problem, in Canada, for every unemployed young person under 30, there are now almost two unemployed older workers.
While there is still strong public resistance to abandoning the vulnerable and less fortunate in society, there has been an unrelenting effort to `manufacture consent' for substantial reductions in a wide range of provincial and federal social expenditures. Politicians promote training as the ultimate panacea for unemployment and poverty. They refuse to question whether there will be jobs for all who want and need them.
While upgrading basic literacy, numeracy and computer skills can be viewed with more favour than specific training for jobs that may never materialize, there are concerns about raising the hopes for employment of those in training programs without some certainty that secure, adequately-waged jobs will be available for them.
"There is good and useful work that needs doing in our communities. We should begin a reasoned discussion of the rationale for and ways to provide a basic income as a right to all citizens, so that people can get on with this work..."
No one can say what those `good' jobs might be, since its forecast that only about 20% of North Americans will be needed for highly paid "symbolic-analyst" positions. More recently, the spread of `elite' knowledge skills around the globe calls into question the job and pay security of even that sector.
Low-skilled repetitive production work that stays will gradually be automated, leaving the majority in the labour force with the option of low-paid "person-to-person" service jobs in the health care, tourism, and hospitality sectors.
Despite the fundamental changes in the nature of work, there is great reluctance, on the part of the general public as well as among bureaucrats and politicians, to examine scenarios and options for the future other than `full employment' as it has traditionally been conceived. Yet, contradicting this as a goal is the constant call from the private sector for `labour flexibility', which translates to `just-in-time' contingent and part-time workers whose lower wages and minimal or no benefits make them less costly. How can these visions of work be reconciled?
Answers currently on offer veer from reducing job demand to increasing job supply. Some spread-the-work advocates promote a 32-hour work week and more worker control. Business interests advocate reduced payroll taxes, while some government decision makers talk of legislated overtime reduction and other ways of creating stronger employment demand.
But there is no serious discussion of a near-future with far too few secure, adequately-waged jobs for those who seek them, and much of what we use and consume provided by smart machines. Neither the dangers nor the opportunities of these new realities are being seriously addressed.
While employed people are working longer hours than ever before, it is not clear how many new jobs would be created by reduction of overtime work or even of the standard work week by as much as 10 hours.
The wide range of policy proposals and pilot projects that have focused on reduction of individual work time as one way to address a diminishing supply of traditional paid jobs suggest that what could be most effective in this respect is an innovative mix of shorter work weeks, job sharing, and sabbatical leaves, earlier retirement from full-time employment and replacing job-related taxes with resource-use taxes. Many analysts see this working only in conjunction with some form of assured basic income program.
In the last analysis, if there are not going to be enough secure, full-time, adequately-waged jobs in the future, both justice and societal interest dictate that we not continue to penalize and stigmatize people who cannot find such positions, or who cannot cobble together a living by holding two or three sub-standard jobs or contingent serial contracts.
All people should have the means to live decently, and beyond that it is in the societal interest that everyone be able and motivated to participate fully and positively in community life. The economic costs to society of long-term unemployment, as well as the damage to individual mental health and to family and community functioning are well-understoodsubstance abuse, family breakdown, mental health problems, even suicide.
How can we best look after our interests in this post-industrial era of new technologies and a globalising economy? Most people sincerely believe that the only path to a bright future lies in trying to return to a time of traditional `full employment'. They argue that the private sector will create jobs if more tax breaks and other incentives appear, that the public sector could become the employer of last resort, that a 32-hour work week would spread existing employment around, that well-designed training can deliver skilled workers, and that a more entrepreneurial culture would spawn myriad small businesses to create countless new jobs for them.
Undoubtedly there is some truth in each of these claims. But there are also difficulties with each in terms of implementation, long-term effectiveness, or political acceptability. None of these societal strategiesalone or even in combination can be considered fully adequate to deal with the problems associated with massive long-term structural unemployment. Neither can a traditional short-term social safety net that was designed for a full-employment society. There is really no turning back to older welfare-state models, as tempting as that may be.
To reduce human suffering, avoid probable unpleasant socio-political consequences, protect the environment and provide a new framework for all people to contribute positively to societal well-being, policy makers must, sooner rather than later, in consultation with an informed public, begin to design and implement feasible alternative approaches to distributing work, income, goods and services. At the very least, from a self-interested perspective, this will be required to maintain social stability and a healthy consumer economy.
The essence of the new realities is that while wealth continues to be created, there is less need for people's labour in manufacturing and many servicesand when human labour is needed, increasingly it can be found in low-wage countries. It is time to consider how to de-couple income from traditional `jobs' that are not there for everyone. The extent to which, and how rapidly, many forms of waged work will be phased out is still controversial. Certainly it is difficult for most people to envision a society and, eventually, a world where relatively few workers can provide all needed goods and services.
Claus Offe, professor of social policy at Berlin's Humboldt University and long-time proponent of `citizens' income', writes: "As long as most wage earners contribute to the production of wealth, the problem of distributing wealth is solved by each individual's employment contract and the family support and social security arrangements tied to it. Once this ceases to be the case and this supposedly `normal' condition...has disappeared for good, the problem of distribution can be solved only by establishing specific economic rights that all citizens grant each other as a component of their citizenship. The central idea of a `citizens' income' consists in the right to sufficient income not conditional upon gainful employment..."
There is good and useful work that needs doing in our communities. We should begin a reasoned discussion of the rationale for and ways to provide a basic income as a right to all citizens, so that people can get on with this work. Whether this BI would be unconditional or conditioned on people's engagement in work involving needed activities for the community, the environment and the general social good or designed in any one of the myriad other ways that are being discussed must be the subject of public consultation and decision.
Deciding how to finance a basic income will be a central component of public debate about the concept. The question has been considered in a number of countries as well as here, and current ideas focus on a range of possibilities: savings from collapsing most of the social service bureaucracy, a `Tobin tax' on currency speculation, a very small `bit tax' on all electronic transactions, a variety of changes to income and corporate taxes, user-pay charges on use of non-renewable resources.
It is hard to imagine that the ingenious armies of economists and accountants will fail to come up with a feasible means, once the desired end result is specified. The Irish are showing the way with a recently-completed set of financing plans for a national basic income. It's time for policy makers across the globe to address the issue.
A well-conceived, viable basic income program can serve as the foundation upon which to build a more human, and humane, way of life. While entrepreneurs will still flourish, everyone can share what waged work there is with full basic income security, free to devote more energy to family concerns, community service, learning and self-development. In time, as people begin to lead more balanced lives, societal values will adjust to recognize the value of these varied activities and accord recognition appropriately for the many kinds of `good work' that income security permits.

Last night (November 2nd), the music world was a flutter with excitement with the last minute news that Beyoncé was performing at the 50th CMA Awards in Nashville.
Joining country music stalwarts, the controversial but much loved Dixie Chicks, Queen B, who just wrapped up her Formation World Tour on October 7th, descended upon the Country Music Association Awards stage dressed in the most beautiful sheer sequinned gown to perform her country flavored track "Daddy Lessons," taken from her incredible album Lemonade.
That wasn't before, however, Beyoncé slayed the red carpet (despite not actually walking down it) with her Zuhair Murad couture gown adorned with crystal flowers. What a lewk.
*HEART EYES EMOJI*
Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley co-hosted the event for the ninth consecutive year, which took place Bridgestone Arena, with rumors that Beyoncé would be performing circulating on Twitter.
The collaboration marks the first time that Beyoncé has performed at the awards, and marked a grand return for the Dixie Chicks after not appearing at the event for a decade.
The Dixie Chicks, having performed a cover of "Daddy Lessons" on their DCX MMXVI tour earlier this year, stood their own against Bey's powerfully emotive vocal, and the two artists even mashed the song up with the band's "Long Time Gone."
However, this being the CMA Awards, Beyoncé's "Daddy Lessons" got given an extra country flourish in the shape of extra orchestration, and it was incredible. Watch the performance below. false
Of course, the Beyhive completely and utterly freaked out about the surprise performance.
Amazingly, that's not the only surprise Beyoncé gifted us with yesterday.
Uploading a picture to Instagram, the singer directed people to her website where they could stream and download a studio version recording of the duet FOR FREE.
Ugh, what did we do to deserve all this magic?
Listen to the studio version of "Daddy Lessons" featuring The Dixie Chicks below and download it RIGHT HERE.
Seriously, this is so incredible. Not only is "Dadddy Lessons" one of our favorite songs from Lemonade, but we're so taken with the extended country elements that The Dixie Chicks bring to this new version.
Good job, B.


A couple of weekends ago, my family (Mom, Dad, Sean) all went out for a night on the town. San Francisco is often amusing and amazing, especially during the holidays. That night, we headed to The Castro and what did we see roaming the streets? Big packs of Santas, making merry! It was Santacon 2009!
Imagine my surprise when we walked into the Lucky 13 and saw this. No really, we were surrounded by Santas.
What surprises have you had this Holiday Season?
That is CRAZY! I hope that no little kids' dreams were shattered driving by and seeing so many of them!!
"And so our stories go..."
thanks for the chuckle. After a busy week I needed it!
Oh my gosh, that is wild!

Why absolutely vaccinated folks can get Covid

LONDON – People fully vaccinated against Covid-19 are highly protected from serious infection, hospitalization and death from the virus. But coronavirus cases among the fully vaccinated – so-called "breakthrough" covid cases – are still seen in those who received two doses.
While vaccinated people rarely get Covid in the US or Europe, breakthrough cases occur for a number of reasons, experts note.
First off, none of the vaccines used in the US or Europe are 100% effective at preventing infections.
In addition, new Covid strains such as the highly contagious Delta variant – which is now widespread worldwide – have made the efficacy picture more difficult. There is also incomplete data on how long immunity to Covid lasts after vaccination.
The alarm was raised over groundbreaking Covid cases when preliminary data released in July in Israel – which had one of the fastest vaccination programs in the world – showed that the Pfizer BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine was only 40.5% effective on average in prevention it was symptomatic disease.
The analysis, conducted when the Delta variant became the dominant tribe in the country, nonetheless found that two doses of the shot offered strong protection from serious illness and hospitalization, the country's health ministry reported.
The data also appeared to show declining effectiveness of the Pfizer BioNTech shot, however the vaccine was only 16% effective against symptomatic infections for those who received two doses of the shot in January. But in people who received two doses by April, the rate of effectiveness (against symptomatic infections) was 79%.
The Israeli data contrasts with an April-May study in England that found the Pfizer BioNTech vaccine was 88% effective after two doses against symptomatic diseases caused by the Delta variant.
However, comparing the results is difficult given the differences in the nature of vaccination programs in the two countries (for example, Israel has given the Pfizer vaccine to the entire adult population, while in the UK several vaccines with the Pfizer BioNTech shot mostly at younger people) as well Differences in study dates, age groups and Covid test regimes.
Similar to the Israeli data, the English data concluded that the Pfizer-BioNTech Covid vaccine was highly effective against hospitalizations of the Delta variant after two doses (the English data showed the vaccine was 96% effective, the Israeli Data showed an effectiveness of 88% effective against hospital stays, on average). In addition, English data showed that the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine was 92% effective after two doses in preventing hospitalization.
Initial efficacy data from clinical trials published by Pfizer and BioNTech last year for the vaccine showed that the vaccine was 95% effective against infections caused by strains of the virus circulating at the time.
Read more: Moderna could be superior to Pfizer compared to Delta variant – breakthrough chances increase over time
Professor Lawrence Young, a virologist at the University of Warwick Medical School in the UK, told CNBC that cases of Covid in fully vaccinated people are a reminder that "no vaccine is 100% effective".
"There will always be a proportion of people who are still susceptible to infection and disease," he said on Monday.
"There are also two other factors that affect the effectiveness of the vaccine: (1) Waning immunity – we still don't know how long the protective immunity induced by the vaccine will last. This is very likely a factor in older and more vulnerable people who vaccinated at the beginning of the vaccine rollout program, "he noted.
The second factor, he added, relates to "breakthrough infections in vaccinated individuals due to the more contagious Delta variant," which made the case more important for booster programs, he said. In the case of booster programs, the jury has not yet made a decision, in the USA and Great Britain a decision has yet to be made
Breakthrough cases by number
Knowing the full extent of the "breakthrough" Covid cases is difficult because cases in vaccinated individuals are usually mild or asymptomatic and could easily go unnoticed, but figures compiled by NBC News show that at least 125,000 were fully vaccinated Americans positive. Covid were tested and 1,400 of them died. Still, the 125,682 "breakthrough" cases in 38 states found by NBC News represented less than 0.08% of the more than 164.2 million people (and will be) fully vaccinated since the beginning of the year, or about every 1,300.
That is, the number of cases and deaths among the vaccinated is very low compared to the number among the unvaccinated. Health authorities, especially in the US, are urging unvaccinated people to register for a Covid vaccination.
For their part, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention say breakthrough cases are "expected" and that "a small percentage of fully vaccinated people will still get sick, hospitalized or die of Covid-19."
Mai said the CDC had "moved from monitoring all reported breakthrough vaccine cases to focus on identifying and investigating only hospitalizations or fatalities." The shift would help maximize the quality of the data collected on cases of greatest clinical and public concern.
Andrew Freedman, an infectious disease reader at Cardiff Medical School, UK, told CNBC that "breakthrough cases" are expected.
"The vaccines are very good at protecting against serious infections, hospitalizations, and death, but they are less effective at providing complete protection against infection, and we know that many people who have been fully vaccinated are still having delta infections in most cases get mild symptoms. " "He said on Monday to CNBC's" Squawk Box Europe ".
"What we don't know is whether an additional booster actually increases protection and reduces infections with delta variants," he noted.
It must be emphasized that studies show that fully vaccinated people are much less likely to contract Covid – or even contract the virus at all.
New research from the UK published last Friday showed that people who were double-vaccinated were three times less likely to test positive for the coronavirus than those who were not vaccinated.
Analysis of the PCR test results in the REACT-1 study – a large coronavirus surveillance program in the UK led by Imperial College London – also suggested that fully vaccinated people may also be less likely to pass the virus on to others than those who were not vaccinated, because they have an average lower viral load and therefore probably less virus shedding.
Professor Paul Elliott, director of the Imperial School of Public Health's REACT program, said the results highlight both the benefits and the limitations of Covid vaccines.
"These results confirm our previous data, which show that both doses of a vaccine offer good protection against infection. But we also see that there is still a risk of infection as no vaccine is 100% effective and we know that some are double vaccinated. "People can still get the virus," he said.
Steven Riley, professor of infectious disease dynamics at Imperial, said "breakthrough infections" need further investigation in fully vaccinated people, especially as parts of the world are grappling with the spread of the Delta variant.
"The Delta variant is known to be highly contagious, and as a result, we can see from our data and others that breakthrough infections occur in fully vaccinated people. We need to better understand how contagious fully vaccinated people become infected as this will help better predict the situation in the months to come, and our results will help build a broader picture of it.

Home Global Activities Taiwan Volunteers Prepare Year-End Red Envelopes of Wisdom and Blessing
Volunteers Prepare Year-End Red Envelopes of Wisdom and Blessing
Wednesday, 17 October 2012 12:04	Tzu Chi Foundation
On October 2, Tzu Chi volunteers began to prepare the red envelopes of Wisdom and Blessing which the foundation gives out at ceremonies at the end of the year. The design this year was inspired by the Water Repentance sutra which members performed in August, 2011; at the centre of the envelope is a statue of the Buddha and next to it a memorial coin and a drop of water.
The work began in the Jing Si Hall in Hualien, where 45 volunteers gathered under the guidance of Dharma Master De Ying and two other masters who live in the Jing Si Abode. It was Master De Ying who designed this year's envelope. She was inspired by the performers of the adaptation of the Water Repentance sutra, a text more than 1,000 years old, that was brought to life in a stage adaptation. She saw how each performer sang the song of 'Incense Praise' and made a journey together to the spiritual mountain; each learnt the sutra. They were like small ants who climbed the sacred mountain of Sumeru in Buddhist cosmology. Master De Ying was amazed by what she saw and wanted to put her feeling into the design of this year's envelope. It is the foundation's custom to design such red envelopes and distribute them at the end of each year to members and friends.
At the beginning, Master De Ying played a video of how to make the envelopes and what is the meaning of them. In a soft voice, she explained: "this year, the envelope contains an envelope, an earth-shape card, a memorial coin, three ears of rice and a gold string." In the centre is the Buddha, the 'Enlightened One of the Cosmos', a symbol of how Tzu Chi people walk on the middle path; behind the Buddha is the orbital path of planets in our solar system with reference to the date when Tzu Chi was founded – March 24, 1966 according to the lunar calendar. The three ears of rice stand for precepts, meditation and wisdom; they also mean 'listen, contemplate and practice'. The Buddha statue sits above a two-storey platform that represent that the dharma assembly will never end; when the envelope is folded, the head of the Buddha appears in the center of the water drop. The design this year is more complicated than that of last year; it is three-dimensional and more solemn.
Master De Ying urged everyone not to work in a hurry but carefully fold and put the pieces together. "The higher the degree of difficulty, the greater the fulfillment," she said. In the beginning, the volunteers found it very difficult to follow the instructions and make the three-dimensional spiritual platform. The three Dharma Masters showed them again and again how to do it. It was a moment of great joy for each volunteer when he or she completed their first 2012 Red Envelope of Wisdom and Blessing.
Dharma Master also showed to everyone the ornament made from the waste paper left over after making the envelope. Everyone was full of praise for how a little piece of waste paper could be recycled and turned into a beautiful ornament.

Shawn Mendes played a sold-out show at Radio City Music Hall on Saturday night. Prior to that, he devoted his time to his fans, putting on an intimate performance for around 300 lucky attendees after a meet-and-greet, signing guitars for VIP ticket-holders and surprising a few lucky ones with front-row seats just a couple hours before doors opened. Take a look at an afternoon in the life of one of the world's biggest — and youngest — megastars.
Mendes waits with his entourage to take the elevator up to his dressing room after surprising a few lucky fans with front-row tickets to the show.
The 17-year-old left a simple note in Radio City Music Hall's guestbook before his sold-out show at the venue.
Mendes tuned his guitar before practicing with the full band at soundcheck.
Fifth Harmony's Camila Cabello joined Mendes during his show as well as for soundcheck with the full band. Cabello co-wrote and sang on the 17-year-old's single "I Know What You Did Last Summer," which appeared on November's Handwritten Revisited.
Hours before the actual Radio City set, Mendes put on a much smaller show for about 300 lucky fans who had purchased the Shawn Access VIP experience. He performed three songs and joked around with the intimately small audience.
Mendes admires the graphics from his show during his soundcheck where he practiced with the new layout for the first time.
Mendes separated his show into three acts, which were indicated by moving visuals and animation he debuted at the Radio City performance. During his set, the singer debuted three new songs, including the heartbreaking, blues-pop track "Ruin."
Cabello and Mendes decided to write "I Know What You Did Last Summer" during a chance meeting backstage while on Taylor Swift's 1989 tour. "We were just backstage hanging out," Mendes told Rolling Stone last November. "I pulled out my guitar and we were just messing around, not really thinking about writing a song."
The Shawn Access VIP package included a set of acoustic guitars signed by the singer to be given to fans who had purchased the special ticket.
Mendes' Radio City show was sold out, much like the rest of the dates on his headlining world tour, which will take him through Europe and back to North America from April through August.
Mendes is pictured here just moments before stepping outside to surprise a few lucky fans with front-row tickets to his show.
Mendes' fanbase is primarily teenage and tweenage girls who came out in droves for his Radio City show. Many lingered after to get a glimpse of their celebrity crush and favorite musician.
Many fans wore matching tops and hats. One group of young girls sported caps that said "Mrs. Mendes" on them.
Mendes spent his time in his dressing room drinking tea and preparing his voice for the show later that night.
Mendes fixed his microphone before appearing on camera prior to his show.
Mendes sprayed his throat to protect it after spending a day talking with fans and rehearsing for his performance that night.
Fans created posters that said "You Made It Shawn," which they held up during his performance of debut single, "Life of the Party."
The screams were deafening throughout Mendes' packed Radio City debut.
Fans kept their phones and iPads handy as they captured every moment of one of Mendes' first shows as a headliner following his gig opening for Taylor Swift on her 1989 world tour.
Flashlights on fans' phones lit up the venue during several slower moments of the show.
Mendes performed a 90-minute set on Saturday night, playing many songs off his debut album, Handwritten, and debuting three new ones to the surprise of his fans. The 17-year-old sold out his headlining tour in just a few minutes last month.


I am excited to join a group of very talented bloggers for Celebrations of Home for our monthly share…and this time the theme is Christmas! If you are like me and make many of your decorations, it's time to start looking for inspiration for the holiday season…and do we have some wonderful ideas for you! Mine is super easy and gives you a lot of bang for the buck…candleholders made using fresh pomegranates! And best of all…they only take about 5 minutes!
Pomegranates just make a statement all on their own, but add a few touches of texture and galvanized bling, in addition to some candles for that warm glow, and you have a holiday table accent that will catch everyone's attention!
Stuff the container with a couple of plastic bags. This allows the fruit to have more height and makes it easier to add the moss.
Cover the plastic bags with Spanish moss, allowing it to hang over the edge of your container just a little and hide the bags inside the container.
Scrape those little flower-looking thingies…an actual botanical term!..yep ;-) from the inside of the pomegranate top with a knife, being careful not to cut it. It's now the perfect size for the candles and even has a little spikey thingy (another botanical term!) in the center to help hold the candle in place.
Add the candle to the top by twisting it just enough to make it fit in the little hole.
Now just tie on some jute twine, light the candles and sit back and wait for your guests to ooooh and aaaaah! As always when using candles, use caution and do not leave them unattended.
I love the rustic look and the texture! And because you do not cut them, they should last for a while…nice!
And just in case you are looking for more ideas for Christmas candles, here are my French sheet music candles…easy to make and practically free! All you need is some glass jars and the free graphic for the sheet music! Easy!
Or here's another spin on candles for Christmas…my Wisteria inspired sheet music candles. And as always, I have provided the graphics for you!
Please be sure to visit these very talented bloggers in the Celebrations of Home crew to see what these ladies are sharing and get a head start on your Christmas decorating and ho-ho-ho-ing!
Love these! I may have to make some, so pretty!

Deb these are so pretty. I love pomegranates anyway and to add a candle, perfect!
Debbie i love this idea of using Pomegranates,they are so pretty,thanks.
These are just beautiful! Perfect for Thanksgiving through Christmas!
This is such a great idea, Debbie! I adore using pomegranates at Christmas and love the look of them combined with the rustic buckets and twine.
Love how you use natural materials for this project. So easy and cute. Thanks for the inspiration.
Debbie, I just wanted to come over and tell you how striking those pomegranate candles are! They steal the show on the Scoop this week! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving, and thank you continually hosting the Scoop. You are appreciated!
This caught my eye right away! I love the pomegranates with candles. So pretty!
Debbie these are great - pinning, and putting pomegrantaes on the grocery list! Thank you, and Happy Thanksgiving!

Mass Immunization to finally start in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina?
Vaccination with "Pfizer" vaccine can officially start in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (FBiH). The Agency for Medicines has issued a positive finding, which has established the quality, so it can be used in the immunization process.
While the population is still waiting for mass immunization, BiH has so far received 89 thousand and 6 hundred vaccines. Half of that came through the COVAX system, and half are donations.
After the Agency for Medicines of BiH approves Pfizer vaccines, the Institute of Public Health of the FBiH will start distributing 15.210 doses to cantons. The AstraZeneca vaccines, which also arrived in our country through the COVAX mechanism, are still on hold since complete documentation has not been submitted.
"Today, the Institute received a positive finding from the Agency for Medicines and Medical Devices of BiH, so tomorrow we will start distribution to the cantons, and it will be distributed in the same way as all previous vaccines according to a predetermined algorithm, " as was announced yesterday.
The Health Center in the Herzegovina-Neretva Canton (HNC) is ready for the vaccines from COVAX. The health center previously called on citizens to apply for vaccination.
"More papers are expected to arrive from the Agency for Medicines, as well as final controls, so we hope that the vaccines should arrive during the next day. People of all ages are applying, all profiles without any pattern, the response is really impressive, the lines are still open and will be continuously open for vaccine applications, " stated yesterday Kristina Bevanda, Acting Director of the Mostar Health Center.
Although the second stock of vaccines from COVAX was supposed to arrive yesterday, according to earlier announcements by Foreign Minister Bisera Turkovic, it is not known when it will arrive. The Ministry did not provide official information. While waiting for a larger delivery of vaccines through COVAX, which BiH paid for last year, the domestic authorities are resentful of the slow delivery. There has been no delivery of vaccines not even through the European mechanism.
"They took 6 and a half million euros from us last December for vaccines and now they are not delivering them to us. Something like this can only happen in the West. Why don't you deliver our vaccines to us? " said Milorad Dodik, Chairman of the BiH Presidency.
In the meantime, vaccine donations are arriving in BiH – 30.000 of Sinovac vaccines from Turkey, and soon 50.000 from China. The Council of Ministers of BiH agreed on the distribution, so the FBiH will receive 30.380 doses from the Chinese donation, and 17.980 from the Turkish one. Republika Srpska (RS) will get 18.620 doses of vaccine from China, and 11.020 doses from a donation from Turkey. The Brcko District will receive 1.000 doses of vaccine from both donations.
"The realization of the donation of the People's Republic of China is in progress. We expect the vaccines to be delivered soon. " told the BiH Ministry of Civil Affairs.
BiH has received 89.600 vaccines so far. Half of it came through COVAX, and half were donations. RS has ordered more than 800.000, and 42.000 have arrived so far. FBiH has not yet provided any vaccines through direct procurement, BHRT writes.

Fun fact about fashion designer Cynthia Rowley: For years, whenever she wanted to wear bold eyeliner, she had to resort to using a Sharpie on her lids. Luckily, the style whiz has created an easier and far safer alternative: this smudgeproof liquid liner. The pen-style tip makes for ultraprecise application, whether you're stippling your bottom lash line or flicking to create the perfect cat eye. And the signature gold motif will ensure that it never gets lost in your (seemingly bottomless) makeup bag.
Great eyeliner. Super easy to apply. Easy to make faint line for daily use or darker/bolder for night. Tip of eyeliner stays smooth after many uses.
Great fine tip for perfect control.
Deep color pigment and lasted all day.
I was definitely skeptical when I first tried this eyeliner. The tip is very, very "bendy" but once you get the hang of it, you will like it. It lasts for a good 8-10 hours but the tube itself has dried out a bit. I am not sure if I would repurchase but I will try it again. Perhaps I got a bad tube that just dried out quickly.
I don't know if it was the product or just my sample, but it dried out so quickly I was only able to use it a few times. Would not buy.
I don't use liquid eyeliner very often if ever. It took me a couple practice tries before I figured out how to use it correctly. Now I love it. It goes on dark black and stays on throughout the day.
I got this as a gift with purchase of a gift. I gave it with the subscription to my sister and she loved it.
I really enjoyed the liner at first but after a few days it started having trouble distributing the liquid. it was as if it were drying out at the end and made it very hard to use.
I really liked the fine tip, and for me stayed all day without smearing. i will continue using it and plan to buy it.
I like this eyeliner however it doesn't seem as good as some others i've used.. it seems to stop working at times which i noticed it doesn't seem to have a bearing or anything inside like a pen does to keep the flow going.

Crosstalk 03-02-2016 Islamic Gulen Movement CD
Christianity has been barred from public schools but Islam's teachings are on the rise in these institutions. Apparently for Islam that is not enough. In fact, for some time there has been an Islamic movement in existence paid for by taxpayer dollars and put into motion by charter schools with connections to an individual named Fethullah Gulen.
Joining Jim to discuss this topic was Shahram Hadian. Shahram was born in Iran into a Muslim family. His father was a lieutenant Colonel in the Army, his mother an elementary school teacher. His parents had a sense of urgency to leave Iran in 1978 and moved to the United States. While in the States, Shahram committed his life to Jesus Christ. This brought immediate disapproval from his family and his culture. Shahram, now a former Muslim, has begun the TIL project. The Truth in Love Project exposes the true goal of Islam and the threat of Shariah in America. He also exposes the lie of Chrislam, the false claim that Christianity and Islam have a common god and a common work. He ran for office of governor in Washington State in 2012. He has served as a police officer and a pastor.
Fethullah Gulen is from Turkey. He's a disciple of Said Nursi who was trying to bring reform to Islam. Gulen has worked diligently to return Turkey back to its Islamic roots and revive the Ottoman Empire. He claims to be a Sufi Muslim and wants reform but as Shahram noted, they can't reform because they can't get away from Mohammed and his teachings.
Gulen is also a major player in the arena of modern charter schools. Across the U.S., 139 Gulen schools exist in 26 states and have been getting government funding estimated to be over a billion dollars. In Texas alone where 33 Gulen schools exist, they received close to 100 million dollars a year.
None of the Gulen schools are connected by name so they are hard to track. For example, the names can sound very benign and include: The Horizon Science Academy (in Ohio) and The Harmony Science Academy (in Texas). Other names in other locations include the Milwaukee Math and Science Academy, the Wisconsin Career Academy or The Magnolia Science Academy.
Shahram explains how this is a 'cover' that helps Islam weave its way into the Interfaith movement, however, it actually moves much deeper than that. Jim proves this point by presenting a quote from Gulen from 1999 where he admits that Muslims '...must move in the arteries of the system without anyone noticing your existence until you reach all the power centers.' Later in the broadcast you get a better indication as to what these arteries and power centers are as Jim says the Gulen movement seeks to reach businessmen, journalists and teachers.

What's the perspective of the phishing attacker? In this webinar, Erich Krone, Security Awareness Advocate with KnowBe4 helps us get inside the heads of hackers who use phishing techniques to compromise companies small and large. One of the keys to successful phishing attacks is for the hacker to make email content appear as innocuous as possible. This can be done through imitating credible sources of email traffic such as management team members within the organization, trusted social media outlets (LinkedIn, Facebook), trusted companies (ADP, Dominos Pizza, etc.). The mechanism to unleash havoc is behind-the-scenes technology...but the front end...the innocent looking link is the one the hacker must get you to click on. How he thinks...and the techniques he employs...are what we'll learn about and how to identify in this video webinar. Originally aired 2.22 @ 1pm ET.

Special Issue of The Review of Philosophy and Psychology: Voices & Thoughts in Psychosis
by Hearing the Voice | Nov 11, 2015 | HtV Publications, HtV Research
Our post-doctoral researchers Dr Ben Alderson-Day and Dr Sam Wilkinson write:
Over the past 18 months Hearing The Voice have been curating a special issue of the Review of Philosophy and Psychology on "Voices and Thoughts in Psychosis". Although the print edition will not be out until sometime next year, each of the papers are now available online, including our Editorial that introduces the issue.
The focus for the special issue was on the relationship between hearing voices and having thoughts that do not feel like your own – experiences sometimes known as "inserted thoughts". Although thought insertion is less common than voice-hearing, it seems to occur in a sizeable minority of people who hear voices. This has led some people to suggest that they might share similar causes or involve similar processes. On the other hand, there must be something different about each experience that prompts their description as "voices" or "thoughts" – raising key questions like how we recognise our own thoughts, and whether voices always have to involve sounds.
To read more about the topic, have a look at the Editorial and the collected issue articles below. Please note that because the articles come from lots of different research groups, only some are available to read freely online, but many of the authors will be willing to share their papers if you get in touch with them directly.

Throughout the Gulf Region, we currently recruit to Saudi Arabia and Qatar. Within these countries there are large expat communities and lots of medical expats, particularly in cities like Doha, where the majority of the population are expatriates. While the Gulf Region has a lot to offer, people from other countries can find it very culturally different, and moving there can take some adjusting to and requires an open mind. Here are some things to consider when making the move to the Gulf Region.
Some of the biggest changes you will notice will relate to the strict adherence to their religious beliefs; as time for praying is factored into the day, conservative dress is worn by all and religious holidays are celebrated. One of the most apparent cultural differences is restrictions on women in Saudi Arabia, as women are not allowed to drive and for the most part do not travel around alone.
Arabic is the official language but across all regions English is widely spoken and is often the language used in business, due to the number of expatriates from Western countries. One of the things expats from the UK tend to enjoy about living in the Gulf Region is the warm, dry weather. However, most people find it too hot in the summer so stay indoors or spend time in another location.
There are restrictions on the sale of alcohol and pork in Qatar and it is banned completely in Saudi Arabia. These countries import most of their food, making it more expensive than locally sourced products, so expatriates will likely have to pay more if they want familiar brands across food, clothes and household goods, however, there are many amazing local products to try. Petrol prices are very cheap so travel by car is very popular, however there are also public transport links across Saudi Arabia and Qatar which are very affordable. Overall, the costs of living compare favourably against the UK, and buying consumer goods is considerably cheaper than in most developed countries of the world.
Other costs such as rent and bills will vary depending on location and the type of house you live in. Many expatriates opt to live in expatriate communities, which tend to include facilities such as a pool, restaurants and shops, as well as 24 hour security, and can be a good way to socialise with other expatriates. However, living in a local residential area is cheaper than living an expat community.
Many of the cities in the Gulf Region have a lot to offer, with sight-seeing, shopping and restaurants to visit, and you can get a look into the culture and history by visiting the souqs and museums. As well as this, Qatar has the highest GDP per capita in the world, and is rapidly growing in economic, social and political capacities, making it a popular destination for business. Qatar will also be hosting the 2022 FIFA World Cup, so several new stadiums are being built and improvements being made throughout the city, with public transport being expanded.
Most expats send their children to international schools, which are widely available across the Gulf Region and vary in cost and entry requirements. International schools typically follow Western holidays and will also respect Islamic holidays and have shorter school days during Ramadan. Outside of this the school and working week is Sunday-Thursday.

MYSTERY OF ACTOR'S DEATH IN BIKE CRASH
A British actor who hoped to make his name in America died after his motorcycle crashed in mysterious circumstances, an inquest in west London was told yesterday.
Mark Frankel, 34, who played a Jewish London estate agent who discovers his father is a Yorkshire pig rearer in Leon the Pig Farmer, died last September after falling off his Harley-Davidson in Chiswick, west London.
A police accident investigator said there was no apparent reason for the accident. Mr. Frankel's widow, Caroline, 32, who was pregnant when he died, said her husband had always been fascinated by motorcycles and the one he had been riding was one of only six in the world. She said he was an extremely careful rider. The couple also had a three-year-old son. Mr. Frankel had appeared in a number of American television shows and his mother, Grace, said that he had believed his future was in the U.S. An open verdict was recorded.
