Friends of the Rouge set to relocate to Plymouth
Growth spurt is the catalyst in Friends of the Rouge's upcoming move to downtown Plymouth.

In a few months, speaking in hushed tones will no longer be a requirement in Plymouth's former Central Middle School library.
On Sept. 1, the century-old book-holding sanctuary in the current Plymouth Arts & Recreation Complex will officially become the new home of Friends of the Rouge, an organization that encourages everyone within its 48-community coverage area to speak loud and clear about protecting the environment.
The convergence of the two nonprofits — the PARC is a 501(c)3 organization, as is its newest tenant — is a match made in heaven, er, Plymouth for lessor and lessee.
"Our current location (on the University of Michigan-Dearborn campus) is nice, with a beautiful wooded area nearby, but we have outgrown the office," Friends of the Rouge executive director Marie McCormick said. "Due to our growth, we have more staff than desks."

Once the decision was made to relocate to a more spacious headquarters, the Friends of the Rouge staff checked out 15 potential sites, all within the the Rouge River Watershed's 467 square miles.
"After comparing all the locations, we narrowed it down to three finalists and finally decided on the Plymouth Arts & Recreation Complex," McCormick said. "Our new office on the second floor is 2,760 square feet, which means we will be increasing our space by 1,300 square feet.

"Additionally, we will have a conference room, a copy room, a lab and a break room — none of which we have at our current location. We fit right in with the PARC's mission, too, which focuses on enhancing education, arts and recreation."
The PARC and the Friends of the Rouge agreed on a five-year lease that kicks in Sept. 1, adding another level of diversity to the downtown Plymouth landmark, which already houses 28 tenants that range from the Z Spot Fitness Studio to the Main Street Opera Theatre.
"I'd say we're a little ahead of where we thought we'd be at this point," PARC executive director Gail Grieger said, when asked about the facility's number of tenants. "Organizations love our downtown Plymouth location, where they're just a short walk from several shops and restaurants. Plus, we're relatively close to both Ann Arbor and Detroit and we have a lot of parking.

"Another nice thing about the PARC is that our tenants work collaboratively with one another, because they share a lot of the same visions. It's really a neat place to work with all of the different organizations. There's a lot of energy in this place on a daily basis."
Grieger said the PARC still has a few vacant rooms to rent on the second floor and that she receives calls on a weekly basis from organizations showing interest in jumping on board the successful model as it's grown.
"We've gotten calls from people as far away as Toronto and Cleveland, wanting to find out how we've been able to do this," Grieger said. "I think the key is, we don't run the organizations that move in, they run themselves."
Grieger said the organizations are responsible for their own renovations to the rooms they rent.
This year's move will allow the FOTR to spread its wings and the services it can provide to the residents of its 48 communities, McCormick said.
"This space will allow Friends of the Rouge to further develop our programs, making a greater impact on the environment and on the quality of life for our community," she said. "We hope to hire additional employees once we move to our new space.
FOTR was founded in 1986 to raise awareness about the need to clean up the Rouge River in southeast Michigan, according to its website, which states, "We envision a future where a clean and vibrant Rouge River is the center of our community. Individual and community actions protect and improve the health of the Rouge River, assuring that its natural, economic and recreational value enhances the quality of life in the Rouge River ecosystem."

If you catch me on The IG @thatblondebikinigirl than I'm sure you've seen me mention a few of these items before. These are the items I've personally been like shitttt…… I wish I remembered to bring that!
If you like to feel on top of your game with your go-to essential items.... there may be a thing or two in here for you.
If you're anything like me I love a good hand grab into the bin of stevia packets at Starbucks! (the purse is always stocked!) I will NEVER again forget to bring my beloved sugar-free alternative again… after making this mistake once before, on a trip to Bali.
I think to think I'm a Queen of salt & sauce– no shame! (I even put salt in my coffee)… I forever miss my favourite sauces & seasonings while I'm overseas so, I bring them with me! 2 bottles to be exact!
That time I searched far & wide in the Greek islands for Cetaphil Oily Skin Cleanser. & no I never did find it! Since then I ALWAYS pack a back-up. The skin wants what the skin wants!
Contact solution, sunscreen, toothpaste, body wash, shampoo & conditioner.. no need to have the big guys, especially if you're flying with carry-on ONLY. It will be seized at your next security check… & keeping your toiletries bottles to a minimum will help save MEGA space & weight in your suitcase.
You're without laundry & now to make it even more inconvenient you've just spelt ketchup from breakfast, on your shirt… wouldn't a tide to-go pen be handy right about now….? YAS!
Pro Tip: Get the travel-sized ones & pack extras!
If you know than, you definitely KNOW what I'm sayin'! These little guys are a MUST – stock up ladies.
I remember the time in Mexico, when I drank a pharmaceutical electrolyte beverage … and I couldn't go to the washroom for 4 days.. if you know what I mean. ZERO FUN to be had.

ZAM, I've finally read St. Nacho's and Physical Therapy… and of course I'm kicking myself for taking so long to get to them.
You are an awesome storyteller and have moved up to get-it-and-read-it-right-away. I'm slow but I can learn.
Congratulations on a great review! I can't say I'm surprised they love it, since I always love your stories.
And congrats again on a great review!
Jacob's Ladder was fantastic (I expected no less), congrats on the great review! It was definately spot on! Of course, I had to read the first two again before it though, just because. Oh, and while I was at it, I re-read Crossing Borders & Family Unit. (sigh) you really need to write faster! ha ha I've been watching your site, do you have a date yet for your July release? I know, I know, demanding!!
Hi Lisa! Thanks so much! YES! I do have word on my July release, look for it as early as tomorrow, July 9th! I just finished last minute prep on it, and it will be coming out exclusively from the MLR press bookstore as soon as they can make it happen! I'm sure that if it does release, I'll post an announcement, links, and some little excerpts. I had a blast with Stirring Up Trouble because it's about chefs in love and as everyone probably can tell from my work, I'm a TOTAL kitchen groupie… *sighs* Stay Tuned!
Tomorrow?!!! Wooo hooo! I'll definately stay tuned – I'm looking forward to it!
You got a pretty darned good review on TwoLips, as well. Loved the book – as I do all your books! You're one of the best at character studies and emotional journeys I've read. I also LOVED SN3. Thanks for being someone on my TBR pile that never disappoints. 🙂 Oh, and did you know SN3 and Drawn Together are the July bookclub selections on the Goodreads m/m loop?
Oh yes, thank you! I didn't know about SN3 and Drawn Together, I'm doing a thing there this month as the author in the spotlight in an m/m group because of my new release, Stirring Up Trouble. Wow… I'm everywhere! 😀 Thanks so much for your kind words. Nice to know people out there are liking the work.

One key takeaway from MLB's Opening Day games
MLB InsidersESPN
We dipped our toes into the waters of the 2020 baseball season with two games on Thursday. On Friday, we dove in headfirst with 14 contests — the first time since the regular season ended on Sept. 29, 2019, that we had coast-to-coast baseball. That was 299 days ago, and it feels like much longer.
The result? It was glorious.
It wasn't glorious because all of the games were great, though some of them were very good. It wasn't glorious because records were broken, though players such as Kyle Hendricks, Shane Bieber, Max Kepler and Eric Hosmer enjoyed memorable, historically significant openers. It wasn't glorious because of long-anticipated debuts, such as Luis Robert in Chicago, or long-anticipated returns, such as Yoenis Cespedes in New York. It was glorious simply because it happened. After months of collective longing, baseball was back.
At the same time, the looming bizarreness of the season — no fans; synthetic ballpark sounds; cardboard cutouts in the stands; ubiquitous masks; and so much more — did not overwhelm the experience of watching it unfold at home, on television. Instead, it felt quite familiar, as if we stepped into a season that had been going on for months. It didn't quite feel or look or sound normal, exactly, but the unusualness of it didn't destroy the main thing we tuned in to see, which was the best baseball players in the world doing their thing.
After missing the entire 2019 season, Yoenis Cespedes hits a solo shot over the left-field wall to give the Mets a 1-0 lead over the Braves.
Braves at Mets: This was kind of a Mets dream blueprint in action, at least for one day. Jacob deGrom was dominant in his five innings, allowing one hit with eight strikeouts and easing concerns about the back tightness that popped up in summer camp. Yoenis Cespedes, in his first regular season game in over two years, clubbed the game-winning home run in the seventh inning off a down-the-middle fastball from Chris Martin and you wish a sellout crowd had been there at Citi Field to celebrate. Seth Lugo and Justin Wilson combined for five more K's over three innings. And Edwin Diaz, a disaster last season, worked through the top of the Braves' lineup for the save. He did get away with a 3-0 fastball that Freddie Freeman hit foul deep to right field — eventually walking Freeman — but struck out two of the other three batters he faced. — David Schoenfield

Tigers at Reds: Opening Day storylines tend to be carryovers from Hot Stove storylines, and so it has been over the last couple of days even though the offseason by now feels like something out of the Mesozoic era. For one day, Cincinnati's splashy winter moves seemed to pay off. Mike Moustakas singled his first two times up and hammered a 421-foot, two-run bomb off the Tigers' David McKay. Nick Castellanos doubled. Shogo Akiyama stroked an RBI single.
But the best sign of all for Cincinnati? A big night for franchise cornerstone Joey Votto. Votto singled in the first and homered off Detroit lefty Matthew Boyd in the fifth. Votto hit exactly one home run off a southpaw last season in 176 plate appearances. How fun would a vintage, if abbreviated, season from Votto be? — Bradford Doolittle
Cavan Biggio's three-run home run in the fifth inning paces the Blue Jays past the Rays 6-4 in Tampa.
Blue Jays at Rays: As the Blue Jays scrambled for a home base to play their home games — it's going to be Buffalo, their Triple-A park — no team faces a stranger season in this season of weird than Toronto. They survived issuing eight walks to pull this one out, including three from Hyun-Jin Ryu in his Blue Jays debut (he walked one or none in 26 of his 29 starts last year). Cavan Biggio had the big hit, a three-run home run off Charlie Morton, and that leads me to my takeaway: Don't be shocked if Biggio has a better season than Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Biggio was better last season (2.9 WAR to 1.5) and has much more defensive value than Guerrero, who has moved over to first base.
Guerrero's conditioning … well, I'm concerned that he's this big already at 21. Will it affect his hitting? Maybe not, at least not yet. Guerrero grounded out twice, reached on an infield single, flew out and struck out. He still has to learn to get the ball in the air more to take advantage of that raw power we saw in the Home Run Derby. — Schoenfield
Brewers at Cubs: Anthony Rizzo played a gracious pandemic host at first base for the Cubs on Friday. After Brewers shortstop Orlando Arcia singled in the third inning, Rizzo whipped out some hand sanitizer, offering it to the Milwaukee infielder as he arrived at first. Arcia gladly obliged, before returning it to Rizzo moments later. Rizzo didn't get many chances to be hospitable after that — Arcia singled two more times later in the game — as Kyle Hendricks didn't allow another baserunner in MLB's first nine-inning opening day complete game since 2013. — Rogers
Bryce Harper celebrates Opening Day in style, arriving to the game in a Phillie Phanatic-themed suit and then wearing a pair of fuzzy cleats during the game.
Marlins at Phillies: During the White Sox-Twins game, longtime broadcaster Steve Stone suggested that MLB should suspend the five-inning requirement for starting pitchers to be rewarded with a win, at least for this season. (To which his usually sensible partner, Jason Benetti responded, "Why don't we just get rid of wins?") You can understand Stone's sentiment, as it's expected that a number of starters will take a while to ramp up their pitch counts. But on the first two days at least, a few starters managed to work into the middle innings or later. Topping the list was Hendricks' three-hitter at Wrigley Field, but don't lose sight of the 6 ⅔ strong innings by Marlins starter Sandy Alcantara in Miami's opening win at Philadelphia, which you might do if you fixate on Bryce Harper's Phanatic sneakers. Alcantara outpitched Aaron Nola in earning the W. Benetti might not care, but last season, Alcantara went 6-14 despite an ERA+ of 109. It's only one game, but it was good to see one of sources of hope for better days in Miami be rewarded for a good night's work. — Doolittle
Shane Bieber strikes out 14 batters over six scoreless innings as Cleveland beats Kansas City 2-0.
Royals at Indians: It feels like everyone might be sleeping on the Indians a bit, possibly because the Twins usurped their AL Central crown last year and then went out and added Josh Donaldson, while the White Sox are a popular pick to be this year's breakout club. But the calling card of these Indians — starting pitching — is the big equalizer for an uneven roster.
Shane Bieber reminded everyone of that by toying with the overmatched Royals on Friday, striking out 14 of the 23 batters he faced over six shutout innings. If not for the sensible pitch-count limit in place (Bieber threw 97), he might well have challenged the nine-inning record of 20 strikeouts. Only Camilo Pascual has struck out more batters on Opening Day, fanning 15 against Harmon Killebrew and the Washington Senators in 1960. Cleveland wasn't the only ballpark in which this was on display, but even in this upside down season, it all starts with, well, the starters. — Doolittle
Orioles at Red Sox: There has been much angst and sadness in the Fens ever since the Red Sox traded the much-loved superstar Mookie Betts, so kudos to the Red Sox for their first-game blowout and particular kudos to Nathan Eovaldi for a nice opening start after struggling with injuries last year. It's a reminder that the Red Sox lineup — even without Betts — might still be pretty imposing and I love J.D. Martinez batting in the two-hole with Rafael Devers third and Xander Bogaerts fourth.
But the primary takeaway here is the Orioles are once again going to be a bad, bad baseball team. I mean, Jose Iglesias batting third? The Orioles had the first pick in the draft in 2019, the second in 2020 and are probably the favorite for the first pick in 2021. Really, this is why we need a draft lottery or maybe a rule that you can't pick in the top five more than one year a row. Something to discourage teams that aren't trying to win from not trying to win. — Schoenfield
Rockies at Rangers: There had been some chatter from Rangers players about new Globe Life Field playing big — Globe Life Park had been one of the better home run park in the majors, especially to right field — and one game is certainly not definitive, but a 1-0 game with just six hits will at least raise an eyebrow or two. The lack of offense probably says more about German Marquez and Lance Lynn than the ballpark. Marquez was dealing and didn't allow a hit until the sixth inning. If only he could pitch all his games on the road. Over the past two seasons he has a 3.30 ERA on the road but 5.42 at Coors Field. As for the Rockies' offense, we shouldn't be surprised that they struggled to hit after spending three weeks practicing at altitude. Their .230 road batting average last year was worst in the majors. — Schoenfield
Twins at White Sox: White Sox fans have many reasons to be excited about this year's team, one they've been waiting on through three years of rebuilding. The opener did nothing to dispel hopes that this year's ChiSox can emerge as an offensive juggernaut. Yoan Moncada had three hits and a three-run homer, defending AL batting champ Tim Anderson had two hits and exciting rookie Luis Robert lashed the first regular-season pitch he saw — a Jose Berrios curveball — to the tune of 115.8 miles per hour for a single. He later added a double.

Still, the first game also suggested that for all the potential of the emerging Sox, they still aspire to be what the Minnesota Twins already are. Minnesota's Max Kepler homered in his first two plate appearances, becoming just the second leadoff hitter since 1920 to start a season that way, the first being the Cubs' Tuffy Rhodes in 1994. Keep an eye on these tantalizing White Sox, but don't lose sight of the AL Central's true behemoth in Minnesota. — Doolittle
Pirates at Cardinals: The Cardinals won, holding on with a one-run victory over Pittsburgh after Kwang Hyun Kim got Jacob Stallings on a game-ending double play. Kim gave up two runs before escaping with the save. The back of the St. Louis bullpen is in a lot of flux at the moment and as we'll remind you a million times over the next couple of weeks, there isn't much time to sort these things out in 2020. Jordan Hicks opted out, so he won't be back. Neither Alex Reyes nor Giovanny Gallegos have joined the team because of undisclosed reasons and Genesis Cabrera tested positive for COVID-19. Meanwhile, last year's primary closer, Carlos Martinez, is slated for the rotation while offseason signee Kim — mostly a starter in Korea — will close. None of it looked too stable in Game No. 1, which was really Game No. 2.7 given the weight of each individual ballgame this season. And that's with ace Jack Flaherty going seven innings. No reason to panic, of course, but file this as a situation to keep an eye on, because sometimes these small bullpen irregularities can snowball. — Doolittle
Mariners at Astros: Under the original pre-pandemic schedule, the Astros would have opened at home against the Angels and then hit the road for 12 of their next 14 games and the biggest storyline early in the season would have been not just the fan reaction to the Astros but the potential reaction from opponents in light of the cheating scandal. They also would have been without Justin Verlander, who would have missed at least the first month after groin surgery in March.
Instead, they opened against the Mariners — a team they went 18-1 against in 2019 — with Verlander on the mound and he had a game that looked straight out of last season, when he beat out teammate Gerrit Cole for Cy Young honors. He allowed just three hits in six innings, but two of those hits were home runs. As long as they remain solo shots, he should once again contend for Cy Young honors in this shortened season. Oh, yeah, the Houston lineup is still formidable even as it awaits for Yordan Alvarez to join the team. — Schoenfield
Padres slugger Eric Hosmer hits bases-clearing doubles in the sixth and seventh innings en route to a 7-2 win over the Diamondbacks.
Diamondbacks at Padres: This one is easy — those new Padres uniforms are glorious. An homage to their humble beginnings of brown and mustard yellow, but with a slightly more modern take on the color scheme, combined with a nice pinstriped look. An instant classic. Fernando Tatis Jr. and Chris Paddack added some awesome brightly colored cleats to complete the look. Speaking of awesome, Paddack looked sharp with six efficient innings.
From crouching sluggers to hitters with their bats pointing straight to the sky, can you tell these players by their unusual approach in the batter's box?
Take the quiz &»
But the on-field takeaway has to be Eric Hosmer's new revamped swing. Long the king of the ground ball, Hosmer has worked to lift the ball more and the initial payoff was remarkable. He hit three fly balls of 347+ feet ALL last season against left-handers — and had three of that distance off Madison Bumgarner (two long fly outs and a three-run double). He then added a second three-run double with a fly ball over the left fielder's head, setting a Padres record with six Opening Day RBIs. — Schoenfield
Giants at Dodgers (for a big two-day takeaway): Umm, other than the Dodgers are good and the Giants are bad? One thing that's clear is how much the Dodgers are going to benefit from having the DH. They already had the best lineup in the NL and now there's no easy out or escaping a jam by facing the pitcher. No pitchers hitting will also lead to more runners on base for the top of the lineup — Mookie Betts, Max Muncy and Justin Turner on Friday, Muncy-Betts-Cody Bellinger on Thursday. It's scary. And once you do go to the bullpen, the Dodgers have a deep bench with platoon or pinch-hitting options if needed.
Meanwhile, the Giants hit Joe McCarthy fifth on Friday. He hit .183 in the minors last season. I almost feel sorry for Giants fans as this storied rivalry looks like a farce in 2020 … well, until they can point to their three World Series rings in the past decade. Take that, Dodgers fans. — Schoenfield
Matt Olson obliterates the baseball for a walk-off grand slam deep to right field to lift the A's over the Angels in 10 innings on Opening Day.
Angels at A's: We had the first extra-innings drama of the season, which meant our first look at what strategies managers may deploy with the new rule that puts a runner on second base to start the inning. Joe Maddon elected not to bunt in the top of the 10th with pinch-hitter Jared Walsh at the plate and the probabilities seem pretty clear that the visiting team SHOULD play for multiple runs rather than a single run. Walsh hit a hard one-hopper to Matt Olson, who threw to third base to get a surprised Shohei Ohtani for the first out (Matt Chapman made a great scoop of Olson's throw) and the Angels eventually left the bases loaded.
A's manager Bob Melvin also bypassed the bunt with Ramon Laureano (who did try to go to right field before getting hit by a pitch), but the A's never bunt anyway — just seven sacrifice bunts all last season. Anyway, Matt Chapman struck out and then there was a wild pitch and then Maddon used a five-man infield and then Matt Olson crushed a grand slam to put a wrap on Opening Day. Small ball don't have a chance.

Climate negotiators in South Africa struck a preliminary deal on forestry over the weekend, advancing a technical document that lays out what could be the first real 'rules of the road' for initiatives that seek to reduce greenhouse gases by curbing deforestation in tropical countries.
First, a little necessary background. Deforestation is responsible for roughly 15% of global carbon emissions, and the idea is that some of the money spent on reducing global greenhouse-gas emissions could be funneled into forest-protection programmes. As envisioned, such initiatives would reduce emissions while preserving biodiversity, protecting freshwater resources and putting some money in the pockets of the rural poor. Pretty much everybody likes the idea, but to make it happen, we first need baselines so that all parties agree on how many trees are coming down — and, more importantly, how much carbon dioxide is going up.
This is where the new agreement comes in. Among other things, the language proposed by a technical working group on Saturday says that developing countries must calculate their baselines in terms of carbon-dioxide emissions — as opposed to hectares — and then submit them for a kind of international peer review before they become final. Assuming the language moves forward, both requirements would increase transparency and make it easier for scientists, investors and other countries to verify the numbers.
In UN-speak, the concept is known as REDD, for 'reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation', and it has been one of the few bright spots in difficult negotiations in recent years. Environmentalists say that the new agreement could have gone further to spell out various environmental and social safeguards, but there was nonetheless a collective sigh of relief after a week of difficult negotiations that went down to the deadline.
This is just a first step.
REDD can't go anywhere within the UN climate system unless countries can mobilize monetary resources to make it happen, and that means progress on forestry could once again fall prey to disagreements about how to raise and spend the money — ramping up to US$100 billion annually by 2020 — that industrialized countries have committed to help developing countries deal with climate. At least for now, however, all of the major action on REDD is taking place through bilateral partnerships, and many think that the new agreement could lead to an international standard that will apply even outside the UN process. For some background, check out our stories on setting up a REDD system and counting carbon in the Amazon.
As it happens, the Brazilian Amazon has been the topic of much discussion here in Durban. Brazil has made remarkable progress in reducing deforestation over the past several years, but many now fear that the country could be facing a major backslide in the years to come, thanks in part to a rural backlash against the nation's forest-protection code.
On Tuesday the Brazilian Senate is scheduled to vote on — and presumably approve — new forest-code legislation, and then the question is whether President Dilma Rousseff will use her veto power to eliminate troublesome provisions in the bill. Environmentalists say that the bill could spell disaster in the Amazon, and the Rousseff administration has long opposed the legislation as well. Speaking in Durban, however, Brazilian officials say that the worst provisions have already been removed and argue that the legislation will not affect Brazil's commitments to reducing deforestation.
For a nice analysis of how all of this might play out, check out the new essay in Conservation Biology by scientists at the Brazilian Amazon Environmental Research Institute. Led by Dan Nepstad, the essay authors call for "systemic conservation" and go on to analyze two possible futures of the Amazon basin. The treatment of carbon proves to be one crucial factor in determining whether we will see an end to deforestation by 2020, or an acceleration of forest destruction.

Q: What is the difference between hybris order management and fulfilment extensions? which one should be used when? I am working on customization of some order flows in Hybris and want to know what is exact difference between order management and fulfillment modules in Hybris. Also, when should we use which one of the above? Thanks.

A: Order management is part of a module you have to pay for (OMS). It contains a lot of workflows and frontends to handle orders after they have been created.
The fulfillment extension is part of the accelerator module and just adds the most basic processes to handle an order. When you need more than that, you will have to implement yourself.
I would suggest you make yourself familiar with the OMS module. If that fits your needs and your company wants to pay for it, you can use it.

A: When you say Order management it covers order fulfillment already.
There are two things

*

*Standard SAP Commerce order management

*Order Management Services (OMS) - this comes with a different license

For SAP Commerce order management, there are extensions like saporderexchange, ysaporderfulfillment etc
For OMS, there are extensions like ysapomsfulfillment, saporderexchangeoms etc

What is the Building Code of Australia?
From 1 May 2011, the Building Code of Australia (BCA) forms chapters 1 and 2 of the National Construction Code (NCC). The NCC is produced and maintained by the Australian Building Codes Board (ABCB) on behalf of the Commonwealth, States and Territories.
The BCA was established to achieve nationally consistent, minimum standards for construction. It contains technical provisions for the design and construction of buildings and other structures, covering such matters as structure, fire resistance, access and egress, services and equipment, energy efficiency and certain aspects of health and amenity.
The BCA is recognised in legislation in each state and territory, ensuring that the BCA's technical requirements have to be satisfied in order to achieve compliance with legislative requirements.

What should have been said and done upon Moses' coming down the first time from the mount, if the golden calf had not broken the measures and put all into disorder, now at last, when with great difficulty reconciliation was made, begins to be said and done; and that great affair of the setting up of God's worship is put into its former channel again, and goes on now without interruption. I. Moses gives Israel those instructions, received from God, which required immediate observance. 1. Concerning the sabbath (v. 1-3). 2. Concerning the contribution that was to be made for the erecting of the tabernacle (v. 4-9). 3. Concerning the framing of the tabernacle and the utensils of it (v. 10-19). II. The people bring in their contributions (v. 20-29). III. The head-workmen are nominated (v. 30, etc.).
It was said in general (ch. 34:32), Moses gave them in commandment all that the Lord has spoken with him. But, the erecting and furnishing of the tabernacle being the work to which they were now immediately to apply themselves, there is particular mention of the orders given concerning it.
I. All the congregation is summoned to attend (v. 1); that is, the heads and rulers of the congregation, the representatives of the several tribes, who must receive instructions from Moses as he had received them from the Lord, and must communicate them to the people. Thus John, being commanded to write to the seven churches what had been revealed to him, writes it to the angels, or ministers, of the churches.
II. Moses gave them in charge all that (and that only) which God had commanded him; thus he approved himself faithful both to God and Israel, between whom he was a messenger or mediator. If he had added, altered, or diminished, he would have been false to both. But, both sides having reposed a trust in him, he was true to the trust; yet he was faithful as a servant only, but Christ as a Son, Heb. 3:5, 6.
III. He begins with the law of the sabbath, because that was much insisted on in the instructions he had received (v. 21, 3): Six days shall work be done, work for the tabernacle, the work of the day that was now to be done in its day; and they had little else to do here in the wilderness, where they had neither husbandry nor merchandise, neither food to get nor clothes to make: but on the seventh day you must not strike a stroke, no, not at the tabernacle-work; the honour of the sabbath was above that of the sanctuary, more ancient and more lasting; that must be to you a holy day, devoted to God, and not be spent in common business. It is a sabbath of rest. It is a sabbath of sabbaths (so some read it), more honourable and excellent than any of the other feasts, and should survive them all. A sabbath of sabbatism, so others read it, being typical of that sabbatism or rest, both spiritual and eternal, which remains for the people of God, Heb. 4:9. It is a sabbath of rest, that is, in which a rest from all worldly labour must be very carefully and strictly observed. It is a sabbath and a little sabbath, so some of the Jews would have it read; not only observing the whole day as a sabbath, but an hour before the beginning of it, and an hour after the ending of it, which they throw in over and above out of their own time, and call a little sabbath, to show how glad they are of the approach of the sabbath and how loth to part with it. It is a sabbath of rest, but it is rest to the Lord, to whose honour it must be devoted. A penalty is here annexed to the breach of it: Whosoever doeth work therein shall be put to death. Also a particular prohibition of kindling fires on the sabbath day for any servile work, as smith's work, or plumbers, etc.
IV. He orders preparation to be made for the setting up of the tabernacle. Two things were to be done:—
1. All that were able must contribute: Take you from among you an offering, v. 5. The tabernacle was to be dedicated to the honour of God, and used in his service; and therefore what was brought for the setting up and furnishing of that was an offering to the Lord. Our goodness extends not to God, but what is laid out for the support of his kingdom and interest among men he is pleased to accept as an offering to himself; and he requires such acknowledgements of our receiving our all from him and such instances of our dedicating our all to him. The rule is, Whosoever is of a willing heart let him bring. It was not to be a tax imposed upon them, but a benevolence or voluntary contribution, to intimate to us, (1.) That God has not made our yoke heavy. He is a prince that does not burden his subjects with taxes, nor make them to serve with an offering, but draws with the cords of a man, and leaves it to ourselves to judge what is right; his is a government that there is no cause to complain of, for he does not rule with rigour. (2.) That God loves a cheerful giver, and is best pleased with the free-will offering. Those services are acceptable to him that come from the willing heart of a willing people, Ps. 110:3.
2. All that were skilful must work: Every wise-hearted among you shall come, and make, v. 10. See how God dispenses his gifts variously; and, as every man hath received the gift, so he must minister, 1 Pt. 4:10. Those that were rich must bring in materials to work on; those that were ingenious must serve the tabernacle with their ingenuity; as they needed one another, so the tabernacle needed them both, 1 Co. 12:7-21. The work was likely to go on when some helped with their purses, others with their hands, and both with a willing heart. Moses, as he had told them what must be given (v. 5-9), so he gives them the general heads of what must be made (v. 11-19), that, seeing how much work was before them, they might apply themselves to it the more vigorously, and every hand might be busy; and it gave them such an idea of the fabric designed that they could not but long to see it finished.
Moses having made known to them the will of God, they went home and immediately put in practice what they had heard, v. 20. O that every congregation would thus depart from the hearing of the word of God, with a full resolution to be doers of the same! Observe here,
I. The offerings that were brought for the service of the tabernacle (v. 21, etc.), concerning which many things may be noted. 1. It is intimated that they brought their offerings immediately; they departed to their tents immediately to fetch their offering, and did not desire time to consider of it, lest their zeal should be cooled by delays. What duty God convinces us of, and calls us to, we should set about speedily. No season will be more convenient than the present season. 2. It is said that their spirits made them willing (v. 21), and their hearts, v. 29. What they did they did cheerfully, and from a good principle. They were willing, and it was not any external inducement that made them so, but their spirits. It was from a principle of love to God and his service, a desire of his presence with them in his ordinances, gratitude for the great things he had done for them, faith in his promise of what he would further do (or, at least, from the present consideration of these things), that they were willing to offer. What we give and do for God is then acceptable when it comes from a good principle in the heart and spirit. 3. When it is said that as many as were willing-hearted brought their offerings (v. 22), it should seem as if there were some who were not, who loved their gold better than their God, and would not part with it, no, not for the service of the tabernacle. Such there are, who will be called Israelites, and yet will not be moved by the equity of the thing, God's expectations from them, and the good examples of those about them, to part with any thing for the interests of God's kingdom: they are for the true religion, provided it be cheap and will cost them nothing. 4. The offerings were of divers kinds, according as they had; those that had gold and precious stones brought them, not thinking any thing too good and too rich to part with for the honour of God. Those that had not precious stones to bring brought goats' hair, and rams' skins. If we cannot do as much as others for God, we must not therefore sit still and do nothing: if the meaner offerings which are according to our ability gain us not such a reputation among men, yet they shall not fail of acceptance with God, who requires according to what a man hath, and not according to what he hath not, 2 Co. 8:12; 2 Ki. 5:23. Two mites from a pauper were more pleasing than so many talents from a Dives. God has an eye to the heart of the giver more than to the value of the gift. 5. Many of the things they offered were their ornaments, bracelets and rings, and tablets or lockets (v. 22); and even the women parted with these. Can a maid forget her ornaments? Thus far they forgot them that they preferred the beautifying of the sanctuary before their own adorning. Let this teach us, in general, to part with that for God, when he calls for it, which is very dear to us, which we value, and value ourselves by; and particularly to lay aside our ornaments, and deny ourselves in them, when either they occasion offence to others or feed our own pride. If we think those gospel rules concerning our clothing too strict (1 Tim. 2:9, 10; 1 Pt. 3:3, 4), I fear we should scarcely have done as these Israelites did. If they thought their ornaments well bestowed upon the tabernacle, shall not we think the want of ornaments well made up by the graces of the Spirit? Prov. 1:9. 6. These rich things that they offered, we may suppose, were mostly the spoils of the Egyptians; for the Israelites in Egypt were kept poor, till they borrowed at parting. And we may suppose the rulers had better things (v. 27), because, having more influence among the Egyptians, they borrowed larger sums. Who would have thought that ever the wealth of Egypt should have been so well employed? but thus God has often made the earth to help the woman, Rev. 12:16. It was by a special providence and promise of God that the Israelites got all that spoil, and therefore it was highly fit that they should devote a part of it to the service of that God to whom they owed it all. Let every man give according as God hath prospered him, 1 Co. 16:2. Extraordinary successes should be acknowledged by extraordinary offerings. Apply it to human learning, arts and sciences, which are borrowed, as it were, from the Egyptians. Those that are enriched with these must devote them to the service of God and his tabernacle: they may be used as helps to understand the scriptures, as ornaments or handmaids to divinity. But then great care must be taken that Egypt's gods mingle not with Egypt's gold. Moses, though learned in all the learning of the Egyptians, did not therefore pretend, in the least instance, to correct the pattern shown him in the mount. The furnishing of the tabernacle with the riches of Egypt was perhaps a good omen to the Gentiles, who, in the fulness of time, should be brought into the gospel tabernacle, and their silver and their gold with them (Isa. 60:9), and it should be said, Blessed be Egypt my people, Isa. 19:25. 7. We may suppose that the remembrance of the offerings made for the golden calf made them the more forward in these offerings. Those that had then parted with their ear-rings would not testify their repentance by giving the rest of their jewels to the service of God: godly sorrow worketh such a revenge, 2 Co. 7:11. And those that had kept themselves pure from that idolatry yet argued with themselves, "Were they so forward in contributing to an idol, and shall we be backward or sneaking in our offerings to the Lord?" Thus some good was brought even out of that evil.
II. The work that was done for the service of the tabernacle (v. 25): The women did spin with their hands. Some spun fine work, of blue and purple; others coarse work, of goats' hair, and yet theirs also is said to be done in wisdom, v. 26. As it is not only rich gifts, so it is not only fine work that God accepts. Notice is here taken of the good women's work for God, as well as of Bezaleel's and Aholiab's. The meanest hand for the honour of God, shall have an honourable recompence. Mary's anointing of Christ's head shall be told for a memorial (Mt. 26:13); and a record is kept of the women that laboured in the gospel tabernacle (Phil. 4:3), and were helpers to Paul in Christ Jesus, Rom. 16:3. It is part of the character of the virtuous woman that she layeth her hands to the spindle, Prov. 31:19. This employment was here turned to a pious use, as it may be still (though we have no hangings to make for the tabernacle) by the imitation of the charity of Dorcas, who made coats and garments for poor widows, Acts 9:39. Even those that are not in a capacity to give in charity may yet work in charity; and thus the poor may relieve the poor, and those that have nothing but their limbs and senses may be very charitable in the labour of love.
Here is the divine appointment of the master-workmen, that there might be no strife for the office, and that all who were employed in the work might take direction from, and give account to, these general inspectors; for God is the God of order and not of confusion. Observe, 1. Those whom God called by name to this service he filled with the Spirit of God, to qualify them for it, v. 30, 31. Skill in secular employments is God's gift, and comes from above, Jam. 1:17. From him the faculty is, and the improvement of it. To his honour therefore all knowledge must be devoted, and we must study how to serve him with it. The work was extraordinary which Bezaleel was designed for, and therefore he was qualified in an extraordinary manner for it; thus when the apostles were appointed to be master-builders in setting up the gospel tabernacle they were filled with the Spirit of God in wisdom and understanding. 2. The were appointed, not only to devise, but to work (v. 32), to work all manner of work, v. 35. Those of eminent gifts, that are capable of directing others, must not thing that these will excuse them in idleness. Many are ingenious enough in cutting out work for other people, and can tell what this man and that man should do, but the burdens they ind on others they themselves will not touch with one of their fingers. These will fall under the character of slothful servants. 3. They were not only to devise and work themselves, but they were to teach others, v. 34. Not only had Bezaleel power to command, but he was to take pains to instruct. Those that rule should teach; and those to whom God had given knowledge should be willing to communicate it for the benefit of others, not coveting to monopolize it.


Safety and health protection are top of our agenda. They have the highest priority, even before sales and profits. Protecting the health and employability of our employees, and preventing accidents and incidents at work, in the operation of our production facilities, during transportation and on the way to and from work are of central importance to Evonik.
This is confirmed by our materiality analysis and regular discussions with our stakeholders. We take an all-round approach to safety, covering employees, their working situation, products and the general working environment.
In the Evonik Group this is ensured by globally valid policies and operating procedures that are firmly anchored in an integrated management system. Observance of these rules is monitored via a central audit system. At operational level, business-specific implementation is defined by the segments. Steering bodies at Group level ensure that mission-critical processes are implemented across the segments.
We analyze incidents carefully so we can learn from them. The lessons learned are communicated in our regular global newsletter "Learning from one another", which reports on topical safety issues.
Our binding targets and key performance indicators are used to check implementation of the requirements and identify the need for further action. The relevant parameters are accident frequency as a measure of occupational safety and incident frequency as an indicator of plant safety.
Our crisis and incident management ensures that in the event of accidents and incidents everything is done to prevent and limit damage. We also play an active part in the relevant national and international associations.
The Safety at Evonik initiative is firmly established throughout the Group as a fundamental management approach geared to implementing a safety culture in all areas of occupational and transportation safety. In 2014 we developed binding principles of action, which are grouped in four themes. They define the appropriate behaviors and provide clear and measurable guidance for the personal conduct and leadership of all groups of employees, from local personnel to our management. All employees worldwide receive training in this.
Evonik has committed itself to protect and foster the health of its employees. Against the background of demographic change we strive to maintain or even enhance the performance and the well-being of our workforce. Our approach is holistic and integrated.
Protecting the health and employability of our employees, and preventing accidents and incidents at work, in the operation of our production facilities, during transportation and on the way to and from work are of central importance to Evonik.
Safe transportation of goods is very important for us. We use a uniform process to select logistics service providers for transportation. We also regularly review their performance. In keeping with our understanding of sustainability, that includes evaluating the Responsible Care® performance of all transportation providers. Our aim is to minimize risk at all stages, from loading through transportation to unloading.
One of the most important requirements placed on the chemical industry by its stakeholders is that all substances be produced, handled and used not only in conformity with the law but also under safe conditions.

Q: How do I find all the tables which contains foreign key for given table primary key in sql server? I am trying to search all the tables from database which contains foreign key of given(specific) table's primary key in sql server. Please help.

A: You can use this built-in stored procedure to search all foreign keys for the given table
EXEC sp_fkeys 'TableName'

If this doesn't suit your needs, you can try 10 other ways on this page - https://database.guide/11-ways-return-foreign-keys-sql-server-database-t-sql/

A: Try this..
SELECT
  sys.columns.name AS ColumnName,
  tables.name AS TableName
FROM
  sys.columns
JOIN sys.tables ON
  sys.columns.object_id = tables.object_id
WHERE
  sys.columns.name = 'ForeignKeyColumnName'

A: This should be a good starting point:
select object_name(parent_object_id)
from sys.foreign_keys
where referenced_object_id = object_id('ParentTable');

This doesn't take into account that the FK is specifically referencing your table's PK. If the above doesn't narrow it down enough, start pulling in sys.foreign_key_columns. I'll leave that as an exercise for the reader.


The knee injury that sidelined Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley late in the regular season may have been more serious than both parties let on.
"He was more hurt than what we thought," C.J. Anderson said Tuesday on FS1's "Undisputed." "The injury was a little bit more than what everybody in the building thought, including himself."
Anderson signed with Los Angeles in Week 15 and filled in for an injured Gurley over the next two weeks.
Gurley returned for the postseason but received fewer carries than Anderson the rest of the way. The 24-year-old All-Pro had been one of the most used offensive players in the league prior to his two-week absence.
Both Gurley and Rams head coach Sean McVay maintained throughout the playoffs and after the Super Bowl that the star rusher was healthy.
"He'd never really tell me," Anderson said of Gurley and the mysterious injury. "It was tough. I would say sprained knee. Obviously, it's the same knee injury he's had before in his career. Obviously I had surgery on my meniscus and once you have a knee, you always have a knee. So it aggravates and if he was getting a lot of touches earlier in the year - obviously him being one of the best running backs, that probably was the case."

Today he is an excitable, mischievous and happy toddler, but just one year ago his parents Chris and Jo were facing a race against time to find a hospital to save his life.
Little Charlie, who celebrates his first birthday tomorrow, was diagnosed with the potentially fatal disease necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) just a few days after he was born.
The disease is a serious illness in which tissues in the intestine become inflamed and start to die.
The couple, of Fircroft Road, Ipswich, faced an agonising struggle as doctors desperately tried to find a hospital to treat their newborn because Ipswich Hospital couldn't perform the operation needed to save his life.
9 Drunk driver travelled up A14 slip road the wrong way
10 Motorist was three times the drink drive limit in Stowmarket
Mrs Stones said: "We want to thank so many people. Charlie was treated by so many doctors and nurses but they all still treated him like they knew him and they were all great. From Ipswich Hospital to the Royal London he didn't seem to be just another baby."

Migrant smuggler pleads guilty at age 84
AP, SAN DIEGO
Felicitas Gurrola stands out at a time when the migrant smuggling business has turned increasingly violent and is dominated by large, mostly male operations that choose perilous routes through remote mountains and deserts.
Gurrola is 84, ran a mostly female smuggling ring and picked the busiest US border post for her crossing of choice, US authorities say.
In an almost inaudible voice, the Spanish-speaking octogenarian on Friday pleaded guilty to charges that she directed a smuggling organization that guided migrants across the heavily fortified US-Mexico border by giving them impostor IDs to present to immigration authorities at the crossing in San Ysidro, California.
As an interpreter explained that she faces a maximum penalty of five years in prison, Gurrola stared ahead with a calm, almost expressionless face.
Her 56-year-old daughter, Hilda Moreno, and another woman in the ring also pleaded guilty to the charges. They face up to 15 years in prison, a stiffer sentence in part because of their younger age, defense attorneys said.
"Imagine being 85 years old and incarcerated for the first time," said Gurrola's attorney, Tom Matthews. "To say this is difficult for her is a gross understatement."
At his request, Judge Nita Stormes agreed to support keeping Gurrola jailed with Moreno so her daughter can help her. Matthews said he plans to ask at a Nov. 9 sentencing hearing for the judge to consider Gurrola's age and health issues, which include arthritis in her hands, elbows and knees, and gout.
The route Gurrola's ring used from Tijuana, Mexico, to San Diego is the busiest US border crossing in the world.
Matthews said she ran her business for four decades without hurting any of her clients — unlike many of the traffickers who have left migrants stranded in the desert's searing heat or drawn them into fast-moving Rio Grande waters, where they have perished.
Under an agreement with prosecutors, the government will seek no more than three years and one month in prison, Matthews said.
When she began, Gurrola and her family were typical of other smugglers at the time.
Decades ago, Mexicans in small towns and villages who wanted to seek work in the US often would hire a trusted family member or neighbor who had already been and who would agree to guide them for a small fee.
However, mom-and-pop organizations have faded away with the dramatic increase in border security. Migrant smugglers started charging thousands of dollars in fees to pay for risking the journey through increasingly remote areas to avoid detection, and the illegal industry has become a booming, billion--dollar business attracting violent, organized crime networks — and even drug cartels — that muscled smaller competitors aside.
Despite all that, Gurrola continued to work, with the help of her daughter and others. She met migrants at Tijuana's Suites Royal Hotel where she would give the migrants immigration documents belonging to others and told them to memorize the information, according to the Immigration and Customs Enforcement affidavit.
Her ring — of almost all women — would then take the migrants to a beauty salon to look more like the photos on the documents.
Guides accompanied them to the San Ysidro border crossing and then on commercial buses to the Los Angeles area, where they got paid in cash by the migrants' families, usually about US$3,500 a person, according to an affidavit.
Taiwan's digital diplomacy gets a kickstart
'Whole world' could learn from Taiwan's transparent vote-counting: US academic


The U.S. National Security Agency collected more than 151 million records of Americans' phone calls last year, even after Congress limited its ability to collect bulk phone records, according to an annual report issued on Tuesday by the top U.S. intelligence officer. The report from the office of Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats was the first measure of the effects of the 2015 USA Freedom Act, which limited the NSA to collecting phone records and contacts of people U.S. and allied intelligence agencies suspect may have ties to terrorism. It found that the NSA collected the 151 million records even though it had warrants from the secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance court to spy on only 42 terrorism suspects in 2016, in addition to a handful identified the previous year.

The Dumfries Basin aquifer supports groundwater abstraction for public supply, agriculture and industry. Abstraction is concentrated in the western part of the basin, where falling groundwater levels and deteriorating water quality both reflect the effects of intense pumping. There are two bedrock units: a predominantly breccia–coarse sandstone sequence in the west, interfingering with a predominantly sandstone sequence in the NE and east. The basin is bounded by weakly permeable Lower Palaeozoic rocks, and is largely concealed by variable superficial deposits. Surface water flows onto the basin from the surrounding catchment via the Nith and the Lochar Water and their respective tributaries. Direct rainfall recharge occurs via superficial sands and gravels, especially in the north, and discharge is predominantly to the rivers in the central area rather than the sea. A picture is developing of two main aquifer types within the basin: the high-transmissivity western sector underlain by a fracture-flow system with younger water and active recharge and a high nitrate content, compared with the east where groundwater residence times are longer and the storage capacity is higher.


The Restored Gala is a unique event with a meaningful mission: to restore hope to women in Haiti. Twenty-five Hope Restorers have embarked on a journey to fulfill this mission by restoring an item that the world would deem as junk and raise $1,000 in the process. The money they raise will be matched by a generous donor, and their restored pieces will be auctioned off at the Gala on September 22, 2018. Join us by getting your tickets for the event and helping morgan reach his goal by donating to his campaign below.
My name is Morgan Young and I am a pastor at Oakbrook Church, co-owner of Main Street Café w/my wife, Sandra, and the facilitator for Kokomo CEO entrepreneurship class. I am involved in all those things and the Restored Gala because I am passionate about helping people get better at their one and only life! The easiest thing to do is be a critic, but the harder, more rewarding path is to be an agent of change and a voice of hope; that's something Nadege and I have in common, so why not work together? I did this last year and it was so rewarding I wanted to go 'round again. Just recently I've started a podcast, "The Good Table." And I love playing drums, a good motorcycle ride, writing, woodworking and dining/hanging with great people.

Q: Login to site with captcha php I want to login in http://bo500.s.traaviaan.ir/ ( or another servers ) with php, but I have a problem with Captcha code .
I don't know how to get the Captcha image and show it in a form?
As well I used this code :
<?
if ( !empty($_POST['user'])){
    $user = $_POST['user'];
}
if ( !empty($_POST['pwtraa'])){
    $pw = $_POST['pwtraa'];
}
if ( !empty($_POST['captcha'])){
    $capt = $_POST['captcha'];
}
$login_url = 'http://bo500.s.traaviaan.ir/login.php';
$post_data = "user=".$user."&pwtraa=".$pw."&captcha=".$capt;
$ch = curl_init();
$agent = $_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"];
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $agent);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $login_url );
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1 );
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $post_data);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, 'cookie.txt');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, 'cookie.txt');
$postResult = curl_exec($ch);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_exec($ch);
?>

Please help , Sorry for bad English

A: In the login form on that page there is this input:
<input type="hidden" name="login" value="1428775885">

And the captchas are here:
http://bo500.s.traaviaan.ir/code.php?174865

The number from the "login" value will be associated with a captcha code in the backend on that site.
Have your PHP script access that login page before someone logs in and get the captcha image link and save the login form input id.
Then serve your user the login form, the captcha and have him enter the code.
Then, when you login to the other site, make sure to include both the login value and the captcha solution in your postdata.
