Place your mixture on some non-stick parchment paper and fold closed. Wrap in some aluminium foil and bake in oven for 45 minutes.
Would love to try the roast but need the recipe. In american measurements please..thank you for all the great recipes…!!!
Anja, I love your recipes and videos. I make the oil free hummus the most! I was wondering if you ever made sprouted grain bread. Is it a vegan item?
I'm used to measuring items in cups and teaspoons, etc. How do you measure these items that are listed in grams? Do you use a scale, or is there an easier way? This recipe looks so good, with easy to find ingredients! Thanks!
I normally measure in cups too… but I had a lot of people wanting measurements. It is about 2 cups of beans and 1/2 cup rice. Just add more or less till you get a firm dough like consistency.
Just watched the video of the gluten free seitan roast. I am excited to try it. I did see that the printed recipe does not list the 2 tablespoons of Tamari that you used in the video and wondered about that.
I have added it in now 🙂 Thanks for letting me know.
Tori I made mine last night and loved it!!
Is there an alternative for vegetable stock powder in the Gluten Free Seitan Roast?
A bit of salt, garlic powder, onion powder and mixed herbs.
I can't find the print option on your page for just the recipe. Thanks for the great recipes.
Do you think this would work in an electric pressure cooker?
I don't think it would be the same.
Do you think this would make a good Wellington? I'd like to try it that way. Also would be good with lentils. Can you tell me what is tamari? What would be a good substitute for tamari?
Give it a try as a Wellington and let me know how you go 🙂 Tamari is gluten free soy sauce.
My brother, wife and I loved the Seitan! How can you make it moister? Also, can you recommend a sauce or condiment for the Seitan. Can you cook it in sauce? I purchased commercial Seitan with no oil from Rainbow Grocery in San Francisco, California, U.S.A. and it tasted like rubber. You recipe is better!!!!!!!!!!!!
It would not hold the same. It would also have quite a gluggy texture.
Is there anything I could substitute the flours for?
I haven't tried any other flours… possible oat flour.
You're awesome and so are your recipes. I am 13 years old and I have almost been vegan for 1 year. This will be my first vegan Christmas so I wanted to make this. Can I just use rice flour for both flour portions? Or can I use oat flour for the chickpea flour ?
Hi Paris, well done on being vegan for almost a year! This christmas should be fun for you 🙂 Chickpea flour really helps to bind this, however, oat flour may work too. I haven't tried it though. I would not use all rice flour.
It should do but I haven't tried.
Just use any conversion calculator on the internet.
can I use gluten free flour instead of rice flour?
What sort of beans are need for this recipe?
Hi Ines, I am responding to what you said about the name of the recipe being misleading. Being vegan and GF is sort of tough in that it's hard to find meat substitutes that don't contain gluten. I was actually pleasantly surprised to see how many GF Seitan recipes were on the internet. That may be why she named it that. I am truly not trying to give you a hard time, I just wanted you to know there are a lot of different vantage points in the ______-free diet world. I do get where you are coming from though.
Calling it gluten free seitan makes it easy for someone with coeliac disease to find a suitable vegan seitan substitute.
Really looking forward to trying this as my 5yr old doesn't like beans or lentils unless they are disguised.
Is there an alternative to using foil? We try not to use it in our household.
i am so making this tomorrow for supper .. i have tried many of ur recipes and they don't disappoint. can't wait for the new french toast recipe.i love french toast..you make it so easy for me to stay on my plant based program..thanks ever so much.
love youryoutube channel & recioes.
have yet to try tgem out, need to stock up on ingredients!
How did this recipe get the name Seitan Roast? I thought seitan was the protein portion of wheat after all the gluten was washed away. Just a curious question. It is a delicious recipe no matter what you call it!
It helps people to understand what the texture will be like and also people transitioning to a vegan diet search for gluten free alternatives so it helps them to find a suitable substitute.
Anja, you are the BEST. You are classy Lady. Keep up your healthy ,plant base cooking for humanity.Make something interesting with raw fruits and veggies.
OMG, I can't believe how many folk are on the internet, yet can't use said internet to convert weights and measures in a recipe.
Can you lave out the tamari or use something else?
You could use some salted vegetable stock instead, or soy sauce.
Has anyone tried this with BBQ sauce yet? I want to use this recipe and make vegan ribz.
Can you cook this without using aluminum foil? I am not a fan of using aluminum foil.
Can you cook this in a dutch oven with some vegi broth or water instead of wrapping it up like I make seitan coned beef ? Or will it fall apart?
I haven't tried. It would need some experimentation.
Oops! What is vegetable stock powder?
Thanks Anja! Can't wait to try it. Aloha and Mahalo from Hawaii.
I love your blouse! Am 60 years old and just now watched Forks over Knives and What the Health….my husband and I doing a huge 180 from the Keto diet we have been believing in and following since last January. Talk about jumping the fence. Your recipes have made all the difference. Spend a lot of time online digging around and will order your cook books for Xmas and loving every single thing we have made of yours already! Thanks for bringing us to such an easy transition. Even my meat eating hunk of a husband luvs your recipes!
Hi Anja. Is it possible to make the raw mixture a day ahead of actually baking?
Can't wait to try this! I'm glad you called it "gluten free seitan roast" as matched my search perfectly, as I was looking for a seitan type consistency without the gluten.. I'm also happy you used the measurements you did. I usually have to work out through calculation. The video is great too…clarifies everything in the recipe. It looks absolutely fantastic. I'll let you know how it goes :-).
Definitely looking at your book now …Thank you!
So glad you like the recipe and that it is what you were looking for. Enjoy!
I have been vegan for just two months, and am doing fairly well, (thank heavens for you tube!) but I recently realized my yearly corned beef feast is now a thing of the past, and have been searching for substitutes. Trouble is, everything I keep finding is full of gluten and Im GF. Do you think that this might work as a substitute? Im afraid it might fall apart in the boil. Do you have any other suggestions? – thank you!!!!!
Diana, if you wrap it up tight in layers of cling wrap I would say it should hold together just fine while boiling 😉 I would also turn half way through.
This looks delicious. I will be making this today. Thanks Anja.
Hi Anja, this looks amazing and I can't wait to make it!! I was wanting to make buffalo wings with it, do you think the tomato paste would alter the flavor at all?
Hi Anja, I made this last week and it was a hit! I want to master the seitan and continue to make use of the ingredients I purchased for the recipe. Do you think this recipe would be good chopped or as pepper steak?
I'm so glad you like it. Yes I think it will be perfect chopped or as a pepper steak. Enjoy!


Located in a wildlife refuge on its own private lake on the island of Kauai, Kilauea Lakeside Estate. Located on the north shore of Kauai this secluded Ecotourist retreat is perfect for honeymoons and family vacations.
Kilauea lakeside estate hosted the first Kauai Big Brothers Big Sisters picnic on the property. Beautiful day, wonderful time, great organization.
Governor Neil Abercrombie has just presented to Kilauea Lakeside Estate, Kauai, the 2010 official State of Hawaii Green Certification Award. Kilauea Lakside Estate is the first private property in the Hawaiian Islands to receive this distinguished honor. Past recipients have been the Ritz Carlton and Marriot corporate hotels.
Steve Hunt, with his wife Janine, are lifetime residents of Hermosa Beach and Kilauea, Kauai. Steve created Kilauea Lakeside Estate in 1980. In Kilauea, Steve has been a nursery owner and sustainable farmer in Kauai and has been a lifetime environmental preservationist and sustainable developer with over one hundred and fifty projects worldwide to his credit. Steve is also a commissioner of the Hermosa Beach Green Task Force.
Since receiving various honors and degrees in environmental development from the University of Southern California, Steve taught environmental development at UCLA and has consulted for over two hundred international and national companies during the last forty years.
In the last ten years, Hunt has introduced over fifty environmentally friendly initiatives in Kauai with the goal of being zero carbon emission neutral.
Since it's inception, Kilauea Lakeside Estate has contributed 100% of all proceeds from the agricultural and other uses of the properties to various charities, primarily dealing with the environment and other needs. Donations have been made to the City of Hermosa beach and many local churches , schools and other organizations. In conjunction with their 501c3 non profit foundation in Kilauea, the Save Waiakalua Foundation, ongoing work continues to provide assistance for the preservation of the environmental resources of the community.
For more information on future sustainable projects, Steve can be contacted at Shunt@aol.com.
Our neighbor, Merlin Edmunds, works to preserve endangered Hawaiian plantgs at this garden. We have a one acre preserve established for this purpose.
This blog is now located at http://blog.kauaihoneymoon.com/.
When renovating the Kilauea Lakeside Estate in 2009, we made the decision to make the entire property fully self-sustainable, and one of our ecotourism projects was the installation of these solar panels! Harnessing the power of the sun to power our Kilauea resort promotes ecological sustainability in Kauai and provides our visitors a 'greener' experience with a smaller carbon footprint. We are excited to have this up and running!
Kauai is blessed with abundant water from an aquafour located about 170 feet below the surface. We obtained our permits to drill the well and found good water at this level. For irragation and drinking this water will eventually be powered by solar panels to further improve the sustainability.

Q: Linkers and Loaders for Objective-C I recently came across John Levine's book "Linkers and Loaders."  This book was written in the year 2000.  If anyone has read his book, is everything the author says still relevant for Objective-C in the year 2013?  I am asking, because it looks like a good book to have on my shelf, but if the info is out of date I probably don't want to really study the book.
Thanks!

A: Given that ObjC has been in active use as a natively compiled language since the late '80s (prior, it was largely a precompiler generated language + runtime) and has supported linking/loading since then, too, it'll be as applicable as the book can be to any language derived from C.   With that said, it is likely largely a waste of your time to dive too deep in that linking/loading are details that are taken care of by the system with little [OS X, OpenStep] to no [iOS] configurability to the developer.
Certainly, an interesting divergence, though, and a deep understanding of linking/loading is relevant to any work related to compilation and execution tool chains.

A: Yes & no...
I don't know that specific book, but if it was up-to-date in 2000 then the material in it should still be valid to learn about how things work under the hood.
However, you do not really need to know anything about linking and loading to understand variables and pointers.
Nor do you need to understand symbol tables as such. A symbol table is a data structure used by compilers to track variables during compilation as part of translating the program code your write into the instructions the CPU understands.
The concepts of variables and pointers in programming languages are abstractions of the concepts of memory locations and memory addresses at the CPU level (which themselves are in some sense abstractions of lower-level stuff, ending up with circuits and, if you dig deep enough, electrons! ;-))
What you should be looking for is a book on programming language concepts rather then compiling, linking and loading. A good book will introduce variables and types, then composites such as arrays and records, and end up with objects (which are essentially just variables you'll discover). Types and variables go together, one says how to interpret a collection of bits the other provides somewhere to keep collections of bits. A pointer is a value (collection of bits) of some pointer type, just as an integer is a value of some integer type.
Variables and pointers are not difficult concepts, but they are often misunderstood - plenty of questions on SO stem from misunderstandings of these concepts - so your quest is good, go and read! Apologies, but I've no reference to hand.

Despair Turns to Hope for Shiara Veltman
April is National Donate Life Month. During the month, we are highlighting those who have been touched by organ donation and emphasizing the importance of becoming a donor.
By Coral Denton and Caroline Lee
Shiara Veltman lived a healthy childhood until seventh grade when she fell ill following a trip to Cedar Key, Florida, with friends. She was treated for bronchitis and prescribed antibiotics, but soon she became very swollen.
Initially, it was thought she was allergic to the antibiotics, but after further testing and hospitalization, she was diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, or FSGS, both substantially impacting her kidneys. Even though she altered her diet to consume less sodium and took medicine to help with her diseases, she still had episodes of swelling.
"Other kids at school didn't understand why I was swollen and they made fun of me a lot for it," Shiara said.
When Shiara was 15, her doctor called on Halloween instructing her it was time to begin dialysis at UF Health. She missed most of her sophomore year and half of her junior year of high school while awaiting a kidney transplant, but thanks to her teachers and her mother, she was able to keep up with her schoolwork.
"Being on dialysis is terrible," Shiara said. "While I was waiting for my transplant, I wasn't hopeful. I saw the statistics – that I would be waiting four or five years for a kidney since so many people need transplants."
Luckily, Shiara received her transplant on Nov. 11, 2018, after a year of dialysis. Her journey was not without complications, as FSGS is recurring, and impacted her new kidney too.
Shiara began plasmapheresis treatments at UF Health Shands, making the nearly 1.5-hour trip from Inverness to Gainesville twice a week for a few months, before the treatment frequency was lessened to weekly, then every other week. In total, Shiara spent a year completing plasmapheresis treatments.
During her treatments, Shiara's nurse was Jerry Lewis, R.N., a former UF Health Shands nurse and ambassador with LifeQuest Organ Recovery Services. Lewis's wife had been an organ donor when she passed away, and Lewis volunteered with LifeQuest as a guest speaker in high school classrooms, sharing the importance of donation with students. He encouraged Shiara to share her story with her classmates.
Since the beginning of the 2019 school year, Shiara has volunteered with Lewis and other members of the LifeQuest team, including Coral Denton, senior public education coordinator with LifeQuest Organ Recovery Services. Shiara also was trained to be a LifeQuest Ambassador, and has presented to Citrus High School students in multiple classes.
"I've loved volunteering," Shiara said. "I love sharing my story and encouraging people to be donors. Donation is beautiful."
Shiara's journey with her own kidney transplant and volunteering at LifeQuest has ignited her passion in advocating for organ donation.
"Register as an organ donor so others have a chance at life," Shiara said. "When people get transplants, they can go on to experience and accomplish amazing things."

What's New in UGT 2020
With the release of EDGAR 20.1.1, the Securities and Exchange Commission updated EDGAR to accept the US GAAP 2020 taxonomy among other new taxonomies. Even though previous taxonomies are still accepted by EDGAR, it's always a good practice to transition your SEC filings as soon as possible after the SEC accepts the new taxonomy year.
Below is a summary of the changes in the new XBRL taxonomy as well as a link to a quick reference guide that lists out all the new, deprecated, and modified elements within the 2020 US GAAP taxonomy. This reference guide also contains information about changes to the other taxonomies, such as SRT and EXCH.
What's New in 2020
This year, changes were made to address required ASUs, common reporting practices, and projects designed to improve the utility of the taxonomy. Many new elements and deprecations occurred from the remodeling of topical areas for retirement benefits regarding multiemployer plans, variable interest entities and equity method investments, and ASU transition modeling.
380 new US GAAP elements: 380 new GAAP elements were added to the UGT: 227 due to ASUs, 3 due to ASUs and Topical Projects, 103 due to Topical Projects, 5 due to Reference Project, and 42 due to public comments and internal analyses. Eight new elements have been added to the SRT.
440 changes to documentation: 440 elements had their documentation label (definition) changed for various reasons. Among those, 23 elements had their documentation label changed as a result of Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs). 383 elements had their documentation label changed due to public comments or internal analyses, which is usually done to clarify the definition of a concept, to remove unnecessarily restrictive wording, and to correct inconsistencies. 22 elements had their documentation label changed because of Topical Projects. Six elements had their documentation label changed due to a combination of ASU and Topical Projects. Finally, six elements had their documentation label changed due to the reference project.
475 label changes: 475 elements had their Standard, Period Start, Period End, and/or Total labels changed to better reflect the intended application of the element.
17 property changes: 17 elements had their data type changed from the percentItemType to the pureItemType.
699 added Taxonomy Implementation Notes: 699 Taxonomy Implementation Notes (TINs) were added for 652 elements to assist preparers with determining their intended use.
324 deprecated elements: Elements are deprecated for a number of reasons, including errors in their creation, because the element was superseded by ASUs or other GAAP changes, or low usage. The Change Notes for an element contains information about each element as follows:
Taxonomy Version – contains the version of the Taxonomy in which the deprecation is applicable.
Change Date – contains the year and month in which the deprecation was made.
Deprecated Date – contains the date on which the element is deprecated. The date of deprecation is the date after which the element no longer should be used.
Deprecated Label – contains the reason for the deprecation.
Deprecation Replacement – contains a possible replacement element or possible replacement elements, if applicable. Multiple replacement elements are separated by a space. Not all elements will have a replacement element.
Element Deprecated – contains the value of true to indicate it is a deprecation.
Modified Deprecated Label – contains the value of true if the part for Deprecated Label has been modified.
XBRL preparers can also use the definition linkbase to view relationships between deprecated elements and other elements within the taxonomy. Deprecated elements will remain in the taxonomy for two years to aid in transitioning financial reports and viewing legacy documents but should not be used in new SEC filings.
Removal of the 2017 UGT deprecated elements: The 176 elements that were deprecated in the 2019 UGT will no longer appear in the 2020 UGT.
Removal of the INVEST elements: INVEST elements will no longer appear in the 2020 UGT.
In addition to the above, starting with the 2020 Taxonomy, filers will no longer be able to import or reference the Taxonomy Disclosure Templates (TDTs) that have been made available in the taxonomy. The TDTs will continue to be available in the taxonomy as illustrations and support for taxonomy implementation guides.
The XBRL US DQC Rules Taxonomy (DQCRT) is also published with the 2020 taxonomy. This includes XBRL USDQC Rules. This initial implementation is limited to three DQCRs.
Implementation Guides for the 2020 Taxonomy have been published by FASB and are available here. Topics covered by the guides include: accounting changes, financing receivable and current expected credit loss disclosures, insurance — long-duration contracts, leases under Topic 842, retirement benefits — phase 3, and revenue from contracts with customers (including Statement Presentation of Revenue and Cost of Revenue).
While there is currently a transition period where the SEC will continue to accept EDGAR filings that use older taxonomies, we always recommend making the move to the latest taxonomy as soon as possible. The taxonomies change because of ASUs, public comment, analysis of data, and other impetuses. The most valuable data you can provide your investors and the public will be data that is the most up to date with accounting standards and financial reporting standards.

Owen, Lieutenant Eirwyn Robyns of the Royal Welsh Fusiliers, from Leyn, who went to the Dardanelles, as recorded in October 1915.
Owen, Sergeant G A of the Divisional Signal Company, who took part in the Easter Monday Eisteddfod in the Skating Rink in April 1916.
Owen, Driver H of the 1/1st Welsh Carnarvon, Royal Garrison Artillery, who sang in an open-air concert on Mill Meadows on 5 July 1915.
Owen, Corporal RJ who won three first prizes in the athletic sports held at Kempston, Bedford, in August 1915.
Owen, Lieutenant Reginald J of the Brecknockshire Territorial Force, from Builth Wells.
Oxenham, Private Willie of the Royal Engineers, from South Africa. Though born in Africa, and a married man with three children, he felt it his duty to fight for the Old Country, and having spent six months training at Bedford, had leave to visit Carmarthen and Llandilo before going to France. His father, Mr Wm Oxenham, was the eldest brother of Mrs E A Roberts of the Nag's Head, Llandilo and had married the daughter of Mr Thomas, late of the Green Post, Carmarthen, before going to South Africa many years before. An article on 'A fighting family' detailing the service in the forces of Private Oxenham's various relatives was included in the Amman Valley Chronicle of 10 May 1917.


I have been posting basic Korean lessons on plurk and it turns out that some actually do read them ^_^ so I recently made a blog for it, Korean101 with Sungyoung. There will be 1-3 lessons posted per week with Vocaroo recordings to guide you with the pronunciation of the words. I hope that you find this helpful in any way… and if you have any questions or suggestions, just leave a comment and I will get back to you as soon as I can.
I used the new SL viewer to take photos 'coz I heard that there are no more gridlines. However, I still got one when I took my second photo. It may be just me and my settings so I will try to experiment with it. ^_^ I hope everyone is having a fun Sunday! Annyeong!

Cyril Thomas Culverwell (22 October 1895 – 29 October 1963) was a British Conservative Party politician.

He was elected at a by-election in February 1928 as the Member of Parliament (MP) for Bristol West. He was re-elected at the next 3 elections, and held the seat until the 1945 general election, which he did not contest.

In 1938, Culverwell caused controversy by writing an article for  the Bristol Evening Post of 7 November 1938, which praised Nazi Germany. The next year, November 1939 Culverwell drew further criticism when he called for "Peace by negotiation" with Nazi Germany, arguing that the continuation of the war would strengthen the Soviet Union. Culverwell added that "I can even visualise our troops fighting side by side with the Germans to defeat the Bolshevist menace."

We work with a lot of teams managing competitive intelligence (CI) that create battlecards for their organizations. So, we thought it would be useful to share some of the trends we see when it comes to developing battlecards for various teams within an organization.
Sales teams are usually the biggest consumers of content developed by sales support and intelligence teams, but we've seen that many of our clients create battlecards for key audiences outside of sales. While they are useful for salespeople trying to win deals, providing bite-sized, at-a-glance content to the right people at the right time can also improve strategic decision-making within your company. It's usefulness extends well past sales.
If you house all of your competitive and market intelligence content in a central repository like Klue, repurposing and focusing the right content to different audiences is a low-effort activity, with the benefit of increasing the perceived value of your team to the rest of your organization.
Executives need to know enough high-level information about markets and the competition in order to make strategic decisions that drive the business. Using intelligence to unearth opportunities in the market, or to capitalize on competitors' shortcomings just makes good business sense.
Summary of Recent Events: A summary of recent events from a given competitor including things like product launches, product improvements, key acquired/lost customers, Changes in leadership, notable mergers/acquisitions, etc.
How they differ from us: A concise view of how how you different from the competitor as it relates to your offering and positioning in the market.
Weaknesses: Where your current offerings "win", and areas of your competitor's weakness to exploit with ongoing product development.
Future Roadmap: Insights into the roadmap a competitor is taking relative to their offerings, and a future roadmap of your plan to beat this competitor long-term using positioning differences and internal product strategy.
We all know that good marketers need to understand their customers; but a strategic marketer wants to know just as much about their market and competitors. Pulling together the needs of the customer with deep knowledge of what's happening in the market and with competitors makes a marketer uniquely positioned to drive their organization's strategy.
The basic premise of creating a positioning strategy is to understand how your product/service stacks up relative to your competitors. This can't be done without knowing what your competitors are up to, and how they position their own products/services in the market. Understanding your competitors messaging is also a useful tool in defining your own voice and brand. Knowledge of your competitors messaging helps you make sure your voice stands out from the crowd.
Inform product managers and your product development on the ins and outs of what your team is selling. They will already be masters of your product, but need to know what is happening in the market in order to create a roadmap strategy for your own products. Not only do they need to know about how your competitors products stack up to your own, but they need to understand the customer and marketplace conditions.
Marketplace conditions: All the basic information reps need about a market or market segment.
Target customer segments and opportunities: Information about the ideal customer profile and the pain points that lead them to purchase your solution.
Product features and promotions: A breakdown of feature specs as they relate to your competitors' products.
Competitive analysis: An honest assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of your competitor's product in relation to your product.
Customer segment-specific propositions: The unique selling proposition that persuades your ideal customer profile to purchase your offering.
Possible customer issues with the product: A breakdown of all issues frequently brought up in the sales process.
This one goes without saying. The sales battlecard was created to arm salespeople with relevant and digestible content they can use to win deals. When first developed, these focused heavily on product feature differences, but as both sales theory and customers themselves became more intelligent, battlecards have become a more strategic tool that are tailored to specific customer buying scenarios.
Competitive intelligence is a part of any good battlecard. Sales people will regularly need to demonstrate how their offerings compete against their competitors. Battlecards prepare salespeople to counter claims made by competitors and to know how to leverage their offerings strengths to close deals.
Take a look at these sample battlecards to get an idea of what a sales-ready battlecards should look like.
What it boils down to, is that anyone who is focused on your product or market should be concerned with your competitors. While we've provided a few suggestions on alternative audiences who could benefit from your competitive intelligence content, this is by no means a fulsome list and there are likely others in your organization that could benefit from their own battlecards. Learn how to use battlecards like an expert – from the experts by downloading our latest eBook: A Guide to Creating Battlecards That Win.


Makonde Primary School in Gutu district is reeling under suspicions that a teacher at the school has initiated some pupils into Satanism after the pupils began to act strangely following their participation in prayer sessions led by the teacher.
The Grade 7 teacher, who has been identified as Henry Shumba, is said to be in the habit of taking his pupils to his house for prayer sessions during lesson time.
Although the school's head, Eria Makumbinde refused to comment, some parents said they suspect the sessions, known as 'Deliverance', are being used to initiate pupils into the dark underworld.
Ward 28 Councillor, Johnson Nhema, said he had taken the issue to the District Education Officer (DEO) after receiving complaints from parents who say their children were becoming delusional.
"Parents are angry that their children could be exposed to satanic rituals disguised as prayer meetings. Up to five parents have complained that their children have suddenly fallen sick while others have visions of weird things and snakes," said Nhema.
Parents said Shumba works with a 'dodgy' local prophet to whom he directs the traumatised children for 'deliverance', telling their parents that their children cannot be helped anywhere else.
A mother to one of the victims (name withheld), said she believes Shumba is pursuing a sinister agenda while pretending to be a man of God.
"My daughter has not been well after she got involved in Shumba's so-called deliverance meetings. She sometimes loses sight when she goes to school and she acts strangely. There are several other parents whose children are facing a similar problem.
"One day I took my daughter to one of the sessions to see what happens there only to be shocked when another seemingly possessed pupil started to say strange things to the extent that my daughter was being bewitched.
"I want to know who gave the teacher a right to induct our children into the spiritual realm without our consent," said Gusha.
Gutu DEO, Sonnie Christian Chirikure said he had reprimanded Shumba about involving children into things that are outside his job description.
"He assured me he had stopped. Teachers must not go beyond the normal teaching duties that are expected of them. They must not get pupils into issues of spirituality beyond the classroom.
"We however find it problematic to deal with such cases because they do not breach the Ministry's code of conduct. We have therefore recommended that the case be taken up by the traditional leadership," said Chirikure.

lenten journal: soundtrack
When I was in elementary school and the first part of junior high, we lived in Lusaka, Zambia. One of my clearest memories is of our Sunday after-church ritual: we would come home and have lunch, and then Dad would wash the dishes and Miller and I would dry them. While we worked, we listened to a British music program called Top of the Pops, which was a hit parade of sorts, and they always debuted new music. New music, in those years, more often than not meant something new by the Beatles. The clearest memory of all is the day I heard "Hey Jude" for the first time. I don't remember how the deejay introduced it, other than he was sure it was something monumental and different; then Paul started singing.
I bought the single the next day and wore it out.
I woke to the news this morning that record producer George Martin had died in the night. He was
ninety. He was also the man who was responsible for "Hey Jude," as well the Beatles being known at all, and also for helping to create most all of the memorable moments we know in their songs, which means he was responsible for much of the soundtrack of my growing up.
In an age where I can build a forty-plus track recording in GarageBand on my Mac, he recorded and produced the multilayered sound of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and Magical Mystery Tour on four track analog equipment, which means he literally did it by hand—with scissors and scotch tape.
I didn't know that was going on. I think the Beatles had broken up before I even knew who George Martin was. But I can remember what it felt like as a kid to listen to "Nowhere Man," "Got To Get You Into My Life," and as a teenager to find "Back in the USSR," "Blackbird," and "While My Guitar Gently Weeps," to name only a few—oh, and "Eight Days A Week" and "I'm Looking Through You" and "Rocky Raccoon" and "The Long And Winding Road" and "Get Back"—with your high heel shoes and I love that sweater . . . .
Someone I never knew, and who never knew me, put his fingerprints all over my life because of the way he made music, because of what he saw in the four lads from Liverpool that others had missed, because he put his heart and soul into his craft and believed in what he was doing.
I listened to Beatles songs all day as I was cooking for our Lenten dinner tonight at church and realized, even beyond my early years, these songs are at the heart of the soundtrack of my life. I am grateful, not only for the songs, but also for the gift of being of an age where I got to hear those songs for the first time when they were played for the first time. Thank you, George.
Now it's time to say good night. . . .

Your timing is terrific. My daughter was putting music from my phone on in the car today. She picked Beatles music and asked me if I only knew the songs from the 2 albums on my phone. I didn't go into the monologue about how I own all the 45 records and that we sang Beatles music to her when we rocked her as a baby and how I played it in the car all the time. She knows she likes it all from Spotify. She can take credit for her own discovery, and I get to enjoy that we got Beatles onto the hard drive of her mind.

These songs have continued to speak to every generation since ours, the lucky ones who heard them as they were created. Sir George Martin made magical music with the Beatles, that will live forever. His talent and generosity with creative artists was uniquely respected and appreciated, especially by the Beatles. So many musical memories that give me joy.

Fingas: NDP bests Liberals on policy specifics
Elections often come down to expectations and momentum. Faced with more information than we can possibly process individually, we often limit our considerations to the narratives found in the headlines: who's up, who's down, and who's doing something differently than anticipated.

Elections often come down to expectations and momentum. Faced with more information than we can possibly process individually, we often limit our considerations to the narratives found in the headlines: who's up, who's down, and who's doing something differently than anticipated.
And whatever else one thinks of Justin Trudeau, he's turned the expectations game to his advantage.
In an effort to draw contrasts in experience and competence, his main competitors boasted that he'd be destroyed in the leaders' debates. But the risk of that strategy was that Trudeau would fail to oblige – and Trudeau was able to clear the preposterously low bar set by his opponents simply by staying upright and fully clothed.
Meanwhile, with the NDP pitching itself as a moderate choice early in the campaign, Trudeau found another opportunity to exploit an expectations gap. And a loudly-advertised lurch toward deficits gave Trudeau a narrative of turning left, which he's used to try to swing progressive votes.
Compared to a low-key NDP campaign and an utter embarrassment from the Conservatives, that sense of activity has pushed Trudeau to the front of the pack so far. But it's worth testing the Liberals' narratives against the facts.
While it's easier to focus only on recent movement, we shouldn't grade our prospective leaders on a curve. Rather than asking only whose campaign has deviated most from a party's history and expectations, we should examine the evidence as to what's really on the table.
And there, the picture is different – and less flattering – for Trudeau and his party.
When testing the parties' platforms, expert evaluators have virtually invariably come away preferring the NDP's plans to the Liberals'.
From Greenpeace discussing climate change policy to the College of Family Physicians of Canada assessing health-care plans, and from Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives' economists examining budget choices to Open Media grading the parties on online freedom policies, independent groups have consistently rated the NDP higher than the Liberals.
And the reason is obvious on even a brief review of the parties' platforms. While the NDP has largely thought out which Conservative policies need to be reversed and which goals are worth pursuing from day one, the Liberals have primarily committed pots of money to priorities to be determined later.
That being the case, voters have a decision to make between a Liberal party making a noisy show of offering unspecified change, and an NDP actually promising viable alternatives.
What's more, even if one wanted to hand-wave away the differences in party platforms, there's reason for concern about a party willing and able to make sudden changes in its own political orientation.
Both the NDP and the Conservatives are more predictable for voters due to underlying values emanating from strong membership bases. An NDP that lived up to the Liberals' threats of austerity, or a Conservative party that did otherwise, would lose political viability in short order due to grassroots objections.
But rank-and-file Liberals have once again proven entirely comfortable turning on a dime at the direction of their leader's office.
On issues ranging from child care to carbon pricing, and from corporate taxes to deficits, the Liberals have had no qualms about completely reversing themselves without thought or explanation. And we have reason to doubt the Liberals' current platform will meet a better fate.
In the end, the choices we make in voting have consequences lasting long after the campaign is done. And to make the best decision, we need to be less prone to looking for immediate movement, and more focused on where parties and leaders actually stand.

Back to landscape (with the Sony α6300)
Thursday, June 1, 2017 13:52 CEST - Tagged as a6300, field notes, senese, toscana - Permalink
Thursday, June 1 — St. Justin Martyr
After months focused almost exclusively on flowers (both for necessity and for improving my technique) I'm back from four days in southern Tuscany, entirely devoted to landscape. After some failed attempts in the past years — due to various reasons — I was able to explore a wonderful but less known area at the very south of the province of Siena.
But I'll write about that in a later post. Now I'd like to write some impressions about the Sony α6300, the latest entry in my bag, since I extensively used it on the field.
Sony α6300 + Sony FE 70-200mm F4 G OSS @ 200 mm, 1/250 sec @ ƒ/8, -0.30 EV, ISO 100, panorama of two shots
Il castello di Gallico.
For the first time I in my life I went out with a three-camera-bodies approach. Basically I bought the third camera body for this main reason: to minimise the lens changes on the field. I admit this is partly due to my laziness, but there is also an objective reason: in Tuscany I drive for hundreds of kilometres through white roads. My car gets so filled with dust than it usually takes weeks to completely remove it from the inner parts, and thus there are higher ratios than usual to have dirt on the sensor.
Sony α6300 + Sony FE 70-200mm F4 G OSS @ 113 mm, 1/160 sec @ ƒ/8, +0.30 EV, ISO 320
Radicofani, ginestre e trifoglio fiorito.
The typical setup I used was to have the 16-70 mm, the 70-200 mm and the 150-600 mm always mounted and ready. In some cases, the 150-600 mm was removed in favour of the 10-18mm. In this season the countryside is also filled with flowers, and an alternative take could have been to have the 150-600 mm replaced by a macro lens.
Sony α6300 + Sony FE 70-200mm F4 G OSS @ 93 mm, 1/250 sec @ ƒ/8, +0.30 EV, ISO 320
Paesaggio con il Monte Cetona.
Some of the really welcome new features of the camera are the better resolution in the EVF (back as the one in the NEX-6) and a very high quality 4K movie recording (up to 100 mbps). While taking confidence with the new camera (ergonomics are very similar to the α6000, with some differences) I discovered an apparently minor feature of the α6300 that I wasn't even aware of, but that could possibly be one of the greatest ones: the capability of auto-focusing while in focus magnifier mode.
Up to the α6000, pressing the shutter button cancels the focus magnifier mode. With an option of the α6300, you can stay in that mode, and auto-focusing still works (there's a cross shaped marker which indicates where focusing is performed).
Sony α6300 + Sony FE 70-200mm F4 G OSS @ 200 mm, 1/125 sec @ ƒ/8, ISO 200
Paesaggio con casale abbandonato.
My experience with the NEX-6 and the α6000 is that contrast-based focusing is overall more precise than the phase-based focusing I was using all the time with my Nikon DSLRs; more precise means that most of the times the camera uses the lens at its best (and it doesn't require micro-adjustments for each lens). But a minor fraction of shots get focusing completely wrong (even though the camera confirms the lock).
Paesaggio con Castiglione d'Orcia.
Usually I notice the problem in the EVF (less easily on the α6000 because of the lower resolution) and I repeat focusing and shooting a few times: in most cases at least one attempt is fine. But a subset of this fraction still fails. It's a very low percentage: a rough estimate is that I'm probably losing a keeper out of one hundred, so nothing really important.
Sony α6300 + Sigma 150-600mm ƒ/5-6.3 DG OS HSM C @ 388 mm, 1/100 sec @ ƒ/8, +0.30 EV, ISO 200, beanbag.
Controluce serale.
Should I run into a possibly remarkable photo, I'd stop and double-check the sharpness of the shot before moving on; eventually I'd shot again in manual focusing mode. Unfortunately it's not always easy while hand-holding: with longer focals the image in the EVF is not stable enough to manual focus while in magnifier mode. So, these cases, while really rare, are a significant annoyance that requires setting up the tripod, or using a beanbag.
Sony α6300 + Sony FE 70-200mm F4 G OSS @ 70 mm, 1/320 sec @ ƒ/8, -0.30 EV, ISO 100, panorama of two shots
Paesaggio dell'alta Val d'Orcia con filare di cipressi.
Laghetto artificiale nei pressi di Mucigliani.
The problem with focusing happened in some circumstances with the α6300; but in all cases in which I activated the focus magnifier and refocused while in that mode with a lock confirmation I achieved a sharp result. In the rare cases in which auto-focusing failed even in magnifier mode (just three times in four days) I was immediately visually aware of the problem, so I suppose I'll never risk again that the thing goes undetected.
More photos of the session are available in the diary.

Q: ember cli simple auth devise last version 0.8.0-beta.1 I am trying to set up ember cli simple auth devise in my app, actually I found many examples and similar issues but still not able to solve a problem that I am fighting many hours, it is the last version of the addon 0.8.0-beta.1, the authentication works perfect but when I try to visit a page under a token authorization, the token is not sending in the header:

The thing I am thinking which causes this is the devise authorization in the config file, I have it the same described in the doc:
ENV['simple-auth'] = {
    authorizer: 'simple-auth-authorizer:devise'
}

I have the whole code in this repo, if you could give a feedback it will be really appreciated!!!
Updated 20/04/2015:
ENV['simple-auth'] = {
    authorizer: 'simple-auth-authorizer:devise',
    crossOriginWhitelist: ['*']
}

# config/application.rb
# rack-cors configuration in the server side
config.middleware.insert_before 0, "Rack::Cors" do
  allow do
    origins "*"
    resource "*",
      :headers => :any,
      :methods => [:get, :post, :delete, :put, :options, :head],
      :credentials => true
  end
end

result:

A: When your API is running on a different host/port you need to configure Ember Simple Auth's crossOriginWhitelist and list the API's origin there so Ember Simple Auth will inject the Authorization header. This is a security measure that makes sure that Auth tokens aren't sent with every request all over the Internet.

A: Just in case somebody facing the same issue, as I am working with apache passenger, I found two apache config files of the actual project I am working on, that why origins was sent twice. If you're using passenger I'd suggest to forget about rack-cors and configure it in apache, I found it a clean way.
# add these lines in your apache config file into VirtualHost (or Directory must also work)
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Methods: "*"
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Headers: "*"
Header set access-control-allow-credentials: true

Hope this helps.

Back in June, rumors that Teen Mom 2 star Kailyn Lowry was dating Becky Hayter spread like wildfire across the Internet.
Becky and Kailyn have been friends for years, but why did fans believe they had become more than friends in this case?
Kailyn has made statements regarding the fluidity of her sexuality in the past, which fueled a lot of the lesbian/bisexual chatter.
In the wake of Lowry's divorce from Javi Marroquin, many fans felt that their relationship had developed into something more.
Becky Hayter and Kailyn denied that they were dating, but that didn't stop the swirl of speculation surrounding their relationship.
Insiders - including one person who was the ultimate insider in her life - continued to claim that they were more than just friends.
Even Javi insisted last summer that despite the ladies' claims to the contrary, Kailyn and Becky were definitely hooking up.
Now, Kailyn has re-ignited those rumors with a new set of photos - and some cryptic, suggestive social media posts to boot.
As you can see, Kailyn and Becky posed for some couple-y looking photos over the weekend, as Hayter joined her friend (with benefits?).
They took a a trip to a book signing at Johns Hopkins University, where fans noticed the presence of camera equipment in the background.
That suggests that Hayter will be playing an expanded role, or at least appearing in certain episodes, in the upcoming season of Teen Mom 2.
But what really had social media talking is a Snapchat video in which the ladies joked about their new "relationship."
"I'm so glad we made it official."
Some believe Kailyn was using humor to test the waters.
They believe she's actually been romantically involved with Hayter off and on for several years, and the joke was a trial balloon of sorts.
There's been even more scrutiny on Lowry's love life than usual of late, thanks to questions surrounding the identity of Kailyn's baby daddy.
By all accounts - despite Kailyn's statements that she wanted this - the pregnancy was unplanned, so we think Hayter can be ruled out.
But that doesn't mean that if they are dating, or even if they aren't, she won't be actively involved in the child's upbringing.
It's impossible for us to say if anything is actually going on between Kailyn and Becky, nor are we judging them either way.
But it seems that no matter what the nature of their relationship, Becky is one of the more important people in Kailyn's life.
How important, and for how long?
That remains to be seen, but watch Teen Mom 2 online to relive the long, winding road that brought Lowry to where she is today.

To take their audience to the scene, journalists must pay attention and take notes
by Guest Writer August 7, 2020 August 7, 2020 1 Comment on To take their audience to the scene, journalists must pay attention and take notes Media analysis, New
By Julius Mucunguzi
There are four skill sets that are slowly but surely dying today: listening, taking notes, remembering, and doing simple arithmetic or what our primary school teachers called mental work.
As a trainee journalist at Makerere University in the late 1990s, tape or audio recorders were very few, and perhaps not more than 10 journalists in Uganda had one.
There were certainly no smart phones with recording capabilities. Mobile phone handsets that existed then could not even send an SMS. The phones were not connected to the internet, and as such, you couldn't use them to Google — oh I remember that even Google was not yet born. Yahoo too. There was only msn.com which hosted Hotmail email accounts. Those functionalities were not there.
So, when you went to cover a function, like at this event at State House Nakasero in 1998 (see photo), your ears had to be alert, 100 percent, to listen and take notes simultaneously, without missing the main points.
We had colleagues whom we had nicknamed 'I beg your pardon' because of the frequency with which they used those words, asking newsmakers to repeat what they had said. There were some other annoying colleagues who would keep interrupting us asking, "what has he said?" The most annoying were those who would ask you in vernacular, "yagira ngwenki?" "agambyeki?" when the newsmaker would still be talking.
Taking exact notes is an important skill in journalism because it prevents you from committing the common sin of 'misquoting sources'.
Along the way, in order to catch up with fast-talking people, like when covering a rally where John Ken Lukyamuzi 'The Man' would be addressing, we had to evolve our own shorthand, which only you could read and comprehend. A child would look at your notes and think it is some kind of volongoto. I have a huge pile of notebooks in my library that I too struggle to read and understand what I wrote.
The absence of auto recording technology trained our brains very well. For background information, we depended on what we could recall from memory, or you had to hit the library to read up the texts. For simple calculations, like BODMAS, you multiplied, added, subtracted or divided in the head and just put the answer there.
Today, I see journalists coming to an event with no pen or notebook. Imagine! They just come, place their phones on the table or behind loudspeakers, switch on auto recording, sit back, cross-legged and engage in small talk as the press conference or any type of briefing is going on.
Others even go to the extent of spending that time on WhatsApp. So while they are covering or attending an event their minds are elsewhere — and comprehension and picking up the nuances at the event are lost.
Today, many people can't do simple mental additions. Some people will have to look for a calculator to work out a simple task like '27×34' or '102-17' or '3,656 divided by 7'!
For memory, many can't tell simple things such as which districts border Lake Kwania or which districts one crosses from Kampala to Mbale. They have to first Google!
The laziness has gone even to greater heights that there are apps where instead of writing, you just 'Ask Mr Google Sir!' Someone will even ask you, "why should I remember when I can do a Google search?"
To be able to tell a good story, you need to see and watch every movement of the eyes and lips of the speaker, including other elements of body language. The body language can sometimes betray the message. You can tell that a speaker is cooking up lies by looking closely at how he or she winks, closes and opens eyes, the size of the eyeball and pupil, and the speed of the movements of the lips.
A person who speaks while shrugging his shoulders or kuteera katima, as Bakiga would say, may be demonstrating that they don't care what the hell is going on. Another one who speaks while tapping his left foot on the ground, may be sending a signal of lying, while the other who squints, quickly opening his eyes and closing them, with occasional yawning may also be sending some signals.
A good journalist should and can incorporate the graphic body language descriptions to take the readers to the scene. To do this, you must be paying attention and taking notes.
I love technology because it eases work, but there are cases where it is causing laziness of body, mind, and memory. That we may pay heavily for.

New Apple TV with Netflix streaming to be unveiled Wednesday - report
The new Apple TV, complete with Netflix Instant Watch capabilities, is set to be introduced at Apple's media event Wednesday, according to a new report.
Three anonymous sources reportedly told Bloomberg that the new Apple TV will include "programming from Netflix," which will be available as part of the new set top box platform from Apple. Like the current streaming options available for the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad, the Apple TV-based software would require a monthly subscription with the Netflix service.
The report also reiterated the rumor that the new device will cost just $99, which would be $130 less than the current Apple TV product.
The report did not indicate whether the Netflix functionality would be built-in to the new Apple TV, or it if will be available via the App Store as it is for the iPhone and iPad. Recent rumors have suggested that the new Apple TV, perhaps dubbed iTV, will run the iOS operating system and have access to the App Store.
While Apple is widely expected to introduce a new, smaller iPod nano, and an iPod touch with two cameras and a Retina Display, the awaited Apple TV update was considered less of a certainty. However, the latest report would suggest the hardware is likely to appear.
Apple's "special event" will begin Wednesday at 10 a.m. Pacific Time, 1 p.m. Eastern. AppleInsider will have full live coverage.

It's a little weird that evert device in the house can stream Netflix: TV, Blu-ray, iPhone, iPad, computer, my watch, eyelids, ice dispenser... hell, even my dog will stream Netflix soon. Too bad most new releases aren't available when the DVD/BD is.

Martin O'Malley Joins ClearGov Board of Directors
on January 9, 2018 at 8:47 am
Former Maryland Governor, Martin O'Malley will join the board of directors at ClearGov, a municipal data platform provider.
ClearGov provides cities with a platform to make municipal data available to the public. City officials can provide annotated budget information, alert residents of policy changes and improve transparency. Individual users can also compare how their locality stacks up with peer cities and towns. The platform has grown in recent years to include 40,000 profiles of municipalities nationwide.
The platform also has solutions available for school districts to provide similar transparency reporting.
As Governor, O'Malley led Maryland's early efforts in data-driven government. O'Malley created StateStat, an open data platform that improved the performance and service delivery of government. The effort was modeled on a project O'Malley led as Mayor of Baltimore called CitiStat which included a performance management platform for city workers.
"Governor O'Malley is a true pioneer in data-driven governance," said Chris Bullock, ClearGov's CEO and Chairman.

Jets Acquire Super Bowl Winning-Lineman at NFL Trade Deadline: Report
Heavy on Jets
By Paul A. Esden Jr.
Updated Nov 2, 2021 at 4:32pm
Getty Ex-Kansas City Chiefs offensive lineman Laurent Duvernay-Tardif enjoying a nice moment with his teammates.
The New York Jets have been actively monitoring the NFL trade deadline with the possibility of either buying or selling depending on the opportunity.
Well, they found a golden opportunity with a fantastic deadline deal with the Kansas City Chiefs.
The green and white are sending tight end Daniel Brown to the Chiefs in exchange for veteran guard Laurent Duvernay-Tardif, per Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network.

Join Heavy on Jets!
A Very Interesting Deadline Deal
Sportsperson of the Year: Laurent Duvernay-Tardif | Sports IllustratedKansas City Chiefs offensive lineman Laurent Duvernay-Tardif spent the first four years of his NFL career balancing football with medical school. When an opportunity came to join the frontlines of the healthcare system in its fight against COVID-19, the 2020 Super Bowl champion answered the call.2020-12-07T13:37:32Z
The Jets sent away one of their backup tight ends who also contributed on special teams in exchange for a very valuable and experienced offensive lineman.
Brown has been with the green and white since 2019 and during that time has played in 39 games but has only started in six of those contests.
This season he has played in seven games but didn't record any statistical production.
While on the other side of the coin, Duvernay-Tardif has spent his entire seven-year NFL career with the Chiefs.
Last season he chose to opt-out because of the COVID pandemic. He was activated for the first time on Monday Night Football in Week 8 vs the New York Giants.
Since entering the league back in 2015, the veteran has played in 60 games and has started in 57 of them.
The veteran lineman had a no-trade clause in his contract, that was part of a restructure following the Super Bowl year in 2019, and he waived it to approve this trade to the Jets.

Douglas is back at it again. The Jets deadline deal for Duvernay-Tardif marks the 16th player trade since he has been on the job.
Here is a closer look at all of the players he has acquired:
Alex Lewis, guard, previously of the Baltimore Ravens
Nate Hairston, cornerback, previously of the Indianapolis Colts
Demaryius Thomas, wide receiver, previously of the New England Patriots
Bradley McDougald, safety, previously of the Seattle Seahawks
Quincy Wilson, cornerback, previously of the Colts
Shaq Lawson, defensive end, previously of the Houston Texans
Joe Flacco, quarterback, previously of the Philadelphia Eagles
While the aforementioned former Chiefs offensive lineman is the latest to join this list.
This is a smart move for the Jets who move an expendable piece that wasn't playing anyway in Brown for a lineman that at the very least provides depth, if not more.
Kansas City sheds a little bit of salary in the process for a team that was clearly up against it.
In the trade, the Chiefs "freed up" about $977,000 of cap space, but they'll still have to eat some dead cap in 2021 ($3.2 million) and in 2022 ($2 million). KC only had $2.8 million in cap space which ranks 24th in the NFL, per Over The Cap.
While on the other side of the coin, the Jets have $5.5 million on the docket which is 12th best in the NFL, for what it is worth.

The New York Jets just executed a trade for a starting offensive lineman in a rare player-for-player swap.


I've paired up again with poet Hilary Tellesen for another artist/ writer collaboration project. This time the theme was "Home" and photos were the medium.
Our collaboration consisted of Hilary's poems and printed Instagram photos I shot in my house and hers, capturing the forgotten cobwebby corners, beautiful accidents, and the ubiqutous—and meaningful—mess that is often home life.
You can see the photos up close here and read the poems here.
