Q: Join result of set-returning function (json_array_elements) with table column Let's say I have two tables:
User_Combination
+--------+----------------+
|   id   |   combination  |
+--------+----------------+
|    6   |     [1, 2]     |
|    9   |     [2, 3]     |
+--------+----------------+

Colors
+--------+----------------+
|   id   |   color        |
+--------+----------------+
|    1   |       Blue     |
|    2   |       Yellow   |
|    3   |       Green    |
+--------+----------------+

I'm trying to join the result of json_array_elements(color) with the id of Elements. For example, the result of
select json_array_elements(color) as CombinationID
from User_Combination where id = 6;

is
+-------------------+
|   CombinationID   |
+-------------------+
|    1              |
|    2              |
+-------------------+

I'm unable to join CombinationID with Colors.id. When I try an SQL command such as:
select json_array_elements(article_data) AS articlesInOutfits (color) as CombinationID
from User_Combination uc JOIN Colors co ON co.id = articlesInOutfits;

or
select json_array_elements(article_data) AS articlesInOutfits (color) as CombinationID
from User_Combination uc JOIN Colors co ON co.id = uc.articlesInOutfits;

It says articlesInOutfits does not exist.
Any advice?

A: Use unnest() to get unpacked combinations:
select id, unnest(combination) cid
from user_combination;

 id | cid
----+-----
  6 |   1
  6 |   2
  9 |   2
  9 |   3
(4 rows)

Use unpacked cids to join with colors:
select u.id, color
from (
    select id, unnest(combination) cid
    from user_combination
    ) u
join colors c
on cid = c.id;

 id | color
----+--------
  6 | Blue
  6 | Yellow
  9 | Yellow
  9 | Green
(4 rows)

Use an aggregate function (e.g. json_agg()) to get joined colors aggregated for a user:
select u.id, json_agg(color)
from (
    select id, unnest(combination) cid
    from user_combination
    ) u
join colors c
on cid = c.id
group by 1;

 id |      json_agg
----+---------------------
  9 | ["Yellow", "Green"]
  6 | ["Blue", "Yellow"]
(2 rows)

If combination is of type json you should use json_array_elements() in a lateral join:
select u.id, json_agg(color)
from (
    select id, cid
    from user_combination,
    lateral json_array_elements(combination) cid
    ) u
join colors c
on cid::text::int = c.id
group by 1;

In July 2015, the Town of Purcellville surveyed its citizens to obtain vital information and a snapshot of the overall level of satisfaction of the citizens of Purcellville. The Town, with assistance by Boy Scout Troops 39, 163, 711 and 969, distributed a survey letter with a unique number to all Town residences. The Town was broken down by 4 quadrants and split up among the 4 Boy Scout Troops. The quadrants were (1) North of Main Street, West of Hatcher, (2) North of Main Street, East of Hatcher, (3) South of Main Street, West of 20th Street, and (4) South of Main Street, East of 20th Street.
The unique survey number on the letter was established to authenticate the user as a Town resident and since the distribution was randomly spread out by the Boy Scouts, this kept the survey responses 100% anonymous. There were a total 370 responses or 14% of all 2600 households in the Town of Purcellville that were distributed to. There were 36 responses, or 10%, to question #1 that asked for the unique number that were inconsistent with the computer generated numbers. Even though these survey numbers were inconsistent, they were still included in the overall analysis. While the flyers were distributed to all households, wind or other factors may have led to citizens not obtaining a letter. There was also multiple Town issuances of press releases as well as newspaper articles that made Citizens aware of ways to access a survey letter in case they did not receive one or their letter was misplaced.
With this unique survey number, the Town residents accessed the survey located on the Town website on the main page identified in Red. Question 1 asked for the survey number that was printed on the letter. The rest of the survey was established with input from Town Council Members and the Mayor to solicit the overall rating and comments about Purcellville. The survey had questions about Town Services & Staff, Loudoun County Services, Taxes, Government & Elected Officials, General Town, and Website/Information.
Objectives of this Survey were to obtain direct citizen feedback because ultimately it is the citizens that we serve. The survey is a means to provide valuable feedback from citizens and to establish ways to improve our local government to ensure the citizens quality of life indicators as objectively as possible; evaluate satisfaction with services from the vantage point of those being served; determine reasons for dissatisfaction in order to guide Town action to improve services; obtain information about citizen satisfaction with the courtesy and helpfulness of Town employees and the appropriateness and timeliness of their responses to citizen requests; find out the usefulness of the Town's methods to communicate with citizens; and determine which services the citizens are most pleased with and why. The Town will conduct a similar survey periodically and use the information to develop objectives as well as on-going continuous improvement plans, and to measure future surveys using this one as a basis.
The Appendix includes the complete survey results and verbatim responses for open ended questions that were compiled using SurveyMonkey™.
Respondents were asked to indicate how they rate Town services including Police, Administration (Town Manager's Office), Public Works, Public Utilities, Refuse and Waste Collection, Finance, and Community Development. The options presented for each service included 'Very Satisfied,' 'Satisfied,' 'Somewhat Concerned,' and 'Dissatisfied.' When analyzing the graphs and answers, you also must take into account the numbers behind the percentages, eg. Loudoun County ambulance service got a 100% satisfactory rating, however only 1 citizen responded to that question. Please see Appendix for the raw data behind the percentages.
The Town has an overall satisfactory rating in many of the services it provides.
The County has an overall satisfactory rating the services we asked about as well.
Overall, Citizens have a 77% satisfactory rate when it come to the current utilization of Purcellville tax dollars towards their services provided.
Overall, Citizens have a 79% satisfactory rate of how the Town Government cares about them.
Overall, Citizens have a 77% satisfactory rate in providing information on matters that affect them.
Approximately 54% of the citizens surveyed have attended a Council, Committee, Commission or Board meeting in Town.
Overall, 75% of Citizens have an access to Town officials and staff when there are concerns.
Overall, 85% of Citizens who have interaction with Town Staff, feel that the staff treats the customers courteously and perform their jobs in a professional manner.
Overall, 79% of Citizens feel informed about the Town and its Services.
Overall, 78% of Citizens feel that the website is user friendly and navigated.
The Citizens of Purcellville would prefer to get their information via these resources in order by percentages.
Citizens look forward to receiving information about these items in order of percentages.
In terms of balancing a budget, Citizens preferred these methods, in order of percentages, to meet challenges.
Overall Citizens are 88% satisfied with the parking accommodations/improvements at Fireman's Field.
Overall, 80% of Citizens have attended an event at Fireman's Field. Of these citizens, 71% attended both sports and special events and 29% attended sports only.
There were many comments about listening to Citizens. We currently review and listen to all Citizen concerns. There are many avenues of which we can be reached. Email, meetings, walking through local shops in the community, etc.
Of the Town Services Most and Least satisfied with, here are the top 5 items in no specific order.
The top 5 reasons that Citizens decided to move to Purcellville are Affordable Housing, Schools, Small Town feel, raising a Family and Jobs.
The top 3 biggest issues that Citizens feel the Town has are Debt, Water/Sewer Rates and Development.
Some additional information that Citizens would like to see on the Town website are Votes by Council, More info about Projects in Town, and Financials.
Citizens feel that these are the Top 3 items that should be the priorities of Council.
The top 3 ways Citizens feel about funding new projects are Meals Tax and BPOL Tax, Development/Proffers/User Fees, and Grants.
This survey is a great snapshot of how Citizens feel today. The Town has gone through many changes. It is important that we stay in touch with our Citizens and local Government Officials to project the path of Purcellville in the future.
Thank you to all the Citizens who took time out of their busy day to give us the feedback we are looking for!

Q: Unknow table in field list ao realizar select + sum Estou tentando realizar a soma de valores de varias tabelas diferentes, tentei de duas formas:
Sem citar o nome do banco de dados:
SELECT SUM(animais_adocao.animal_pendente + animais_encontrados.animal_pendente + animais_perdidos.animal_pendente);

E também citando o nome do banco de dados:
SELECT SUM(cademeupet.animais_adocao.animal_pendente + cademeupet.animais_encontrados.animal_pendente + cademeuppet.animais_perdidos.animal_pendente)

Em ambos os casos é retornado:
Unknow table in field list, como podem observar na imagem, a coluna tem esse nome e o banco também, estou esquecendo de algo?

A: Para conseguir efetuar a soma é necessário identificar as tabelas de origem de cada campo que está a utilizar.

Neste caso seria algo deste género (sem conhecer a estrutura das duas tabelas mas partindo do princípio que todas têm um campo ID que identifica o animal):
SELECT      SUM(aa.animal_pendente + ae.animal_pendente + ap.animal_pendente) AS soma
FROM        animais_adocao      aa
LEFT JOIN   animais_encontrados ae ON ae.id_animal = aa.id_animal
LEFT JOIN   animais_perdidos    ap ON ap.id_animal = aa.id_animal

How could what we believe is good and valuable and worth striving for hurt us?
In several places in the Course Jesus tells us to ask of everything, "What is this for?" We are reminded throughout the Course that everything in this world can be used for the ego's purposes or the Holy Spirit's purposes. The ego uses everything in the dream to continue making the dream of separation from God appear to have really happened. The Holy Spirit uses everything we think we have made to reinforce waking up from the dream of separation.
Forgiveness means letting the idea of separation go. As we forgive the dream of separation, we quit striving for the things of this world as an end in themselves. We want only to be truly helpful to Holy Spirit's plan of awakening us all from the fearful dream of being separate and alone. It is only the Holy Spirit who knows how to do this and so we practice, moment by moment, stepping back and following Holy Spirit's plan in everything.
Where does all power in earth and Heaven rest?
What gifts does our only Friend bring to us?
When we realize that the Holy Spirit is our only true Guide, we will stop seeking in the world of form for what we will not find. It is only our true Self, the Holy Spirit, Who brings us the awareness that we need to wake up from the dream of separation. This is the only Friend that we really need.
What is the only thing we have to learn?
If miracles are all the same is the only thing we have to learn, it must be pretty important. Let us recall that a miracle is a change in perception which reverses our thoughts which reflect separation from Love to that of remembering that we are joined as one in the one Mind of Love. We receive miracles (this thought reversal) from the Holy Spirit, which is our one true Self.
No matter what our problem seems to be in this dream of separation, the Holy Spirit always returns us to the only solution that applies to everything we think we see. The Holy Spirit returns us to the remembrance that we have not changed from our one Identity as universal Love. This miracle of thought reversal which leads away from separation and towards oneness is why miracles are all the same and applies to every situation. Either we are led to Heaven through accepting miracles or we remain in dreams of separation, which is nothing and nowhere.
What is the little hindrance?
The little hindrance is our belief in time. Time is part of the ego's story of separation which makes it appear that there is a past and a future that are different and can be seen apart. Time is the ego's replacement for the eternal Love in God's changeless eternity.
Jesus tells us in paragraph two: "Nothing is ever lost but time, which in the end is meaningless. For [time] is but a little hindrance to eternity, quite meaningless to the real Teacher of the world. Yet since you do believe in [time], why should you waste it going nowhere, when it can be used to reach a goal as high as learning can achieve?
What is the highest goal that learning can achieve?
The highest goal that the Holy Spirit brings us to is the awareness that time is over and long gone. We are but reviewing an ancient dream of being separate and having a will that is different from our Creator. It is like we are watching an old movie that was imagined long ago. As we open to our true Self, we learn in fact, that this dream movie never really happened. It was just a passing dream that never really occurred.
Learning that time is over and its unreality gave way to truth is the highest goal that the Holy Spirit is bringing us to. When we let go of this 'little hindrance of our belief in time,' we become aware of where we really are right now, which is in Heaven. We know that nothing has ever happened to change God's one Son.
If time is over, how do we experience it as happening now?
Here we come to understand that when we experience having a separate will where we make decisions on our own, we are just recalling an ancient memory of separation, which never really happened. In the dream it appears to happen because that is what we want to dream.
What are we reliving every day in this dream world of separation?
The good news is that we do not have to keep reliving this single instant of fearful dreaming that we separated from our oneness in Love. We can forgive the past and let it go with the help of our inner Teacher. We do not have to relive this fearful dream of separation again and again. We can learn to let it go and receive the miracle instead. We can learn from the Holy Spirit to: "Look gently on your brother, and behold the world in which perception of your hate has been transformed into a world of Love." (14:5) We can open our closed minds to our true Self, Who will return us to the eternal truth.
Why is the truth very simple?
God is the truth, and there is nothing else. In dreams we think there is something else, we think there are separate bodies, but we cannot make real what God did not create. There is simplicity in God because in God's oneness there is no conflict, no differences and no death. There are no separate lives. There is only one changeless, perfect, eternal Love. Because our Reality is only Love, we are simple. We can relax now, and let the memory of What we are in truth return to our conflicted mind.
What is the final judgment upon this world?
What is the learning goal that this course has set?
Why does Jesus say that every problem is the same?
In truth, the only problem is our error in thinking that we could lose or separate from God's perfect Love. The Love of God created only oneness and so separation from oneness could never be real. This whole world we experience of separate bodies is the effect of thinking that separation could be real. It is the false mind's image making in an attempt to make differences appear to be reality. Because we have identified with this false separated mind-set that believes in differences, we hallucinate that we really have succeeded in obliterating oneness and have now succeeded in kicking God's oneness out of our mind.
We now think we are separate and alone with the ability to make decisions on our own. We now think that choice is possible and that we alone are the decision maker in our little "life" that is separate from the oneness of our Source. We have sacrificed the truth so that we can gain autonomy and specialness. We think we have succeeded in losing our Identity as part of God, and to keep a little for ourself alone, we sacrifice the same eternal Identity of every brother we meet in this dream of separation. We now think that the loss of God is possible.
Why does the miracle of justice correct all errors of the false mind?
Because every perception of a problem just reflects the error in our thinking that separation from the Life we live in God really happened, we need a correction in the way we perceive the illusions we made up to replace God. As we are ready to receive a correction in our thinking from the Holy Spirit, we find that our illusions of loss are not true. The separation we think occurred never really happened. We only dreamed about it for awhile. God's Son could never suffer and die in truth because His true Identity mercifully remains safe in the eternal Mind of God. God could not let us lose our true Identity.
The Holy Spirit shines a light on our mistaken thoughts of separation. As we let the Light of truth into our mind, hallucinations of separation disappear. This is the Holy Spirit's miracle of justice. The past and future disappears and only the eternal presence of universal Love remains. We see that, in truth, we have no problems.
What happens when we believe a brother is guilty?
What happens when we are able to receive the miracle of justice in every situation?
Our special function is to see everyone as sinless. As we are willing to refuse to sacrifice anyone's true Identity, we are saved from our illusions of loss. "The miracle of justice you call forth will rest on you as surely as on him." (6:8) The pain and suffering that comes with belief in separation mercifully falls away from our tortured mind.
When we receive the miracle of justice, we remember Heaven instead of insisting on the hell of separation from God. We return to Love.
Why is the sacrifice of oneness central to the ego thought system?
The ego thought system must hide our awareness of our oneness in God in order to make the image of having a separate life for ourselves alone appear real to us. In order to experience this false thought system, we must be willing to set up barriers against remembering God's oneness through denying our natural awareness of Love's eternal presence. To experience this thought system of separation, we dream up a world where separate bodies rule the universe. In this dream, we, as separate individuals, are the judge of what is real and what is denied. We build up images of a kingdom that we rule alone and God's oneness is sacrificed.
So here we see that it is a requirement that we sacrifice awareness of the truth of our oneness in God in order to experience the dream of separation. Once we let go of our desire to see separation, the dream cannot hold together. It falls apart and we see that it is just a dream of separation and not true at all.
What is required to deny the memory of God?
In order to deny the memory of God, we must sacrifice the truth of our Identity. And in this dream, we must sacrifice the truth of the 'others' we now see as outside of us. If we were to allow ourselves to see each brother as he/she truly Is, the game would be over. We would lose our separate 'self' identity.
This is why the ego's false judgment of what our brother is becomes so important in order to keep the dream of separation going. When we join with the ego, we join with the idea that our brother is a unique body with a unique mind. We see him/her as in a constant state of change, subject to the winds of time. We see them weak and vulnerable. In order to deny the memory of God, we must refuse to see that they are still changeless Love, as God created them.
What happens as we are willing to see the witnesses to truth instead of illusions?
As we become willing to witness to the truth, the world starts to have a new purpose. Our new purpose is to see the one Christ Mind instead of a separate identity. Our new purpose is to see innocence and unity instead of separation and guilt.
How do we hear the song our brother sings to us?
We hear our brother's song of Love when we let go of judging anything on our own without first receiving the help of the Holy Spirit. As we consistently step back from what we think is true, we give the Holy Spirit an opening to return us to the truth of our brother's oneness with God.
How are we reborn through the Holy Spirit's special function?
It is the Holy Spirit's function to return us to the truth of our true Identity by showing us the truth of the Identity of everyone we see around us. As we are willing to see as the Holy Spirit sees, we are reborn and return to the awareness of our real Life in the Life of Love.
What does the Holy Spirit need from us in order to bring us the awareness of Heaven?
When we were created, God gave us all of Himself. God held nothing back from us. God knows only of oneness because All has All; All is All. When we want uniqueness, specialness and a little for ourselves alone, we lose the awareness that we have all of God; we have all that Love has to share with all. That is why Jesus tells us when we think the world is real: "…what brings loss to no one you would not know." The Holy Spirit knows that loss is impossible and would bring this awareness to our mind if we are willing to receive this correction in our thinking.
Early in the Workbook for Students we are guided to understand that we give everything we see all the meaning it has for us. As we are willing to hand over all the meanings we give to everything to the Holy Spirit, He has the opening He needs to bring the Light of truth to our awareness, replacing what we thought before. The Holy Spirit does not bring us the truth of our oneness in God against our will. He waits until we are willing to receive His correction of our perception.
How does the world see justice differently from the Holy Spirit?
This core belief that justice is punishment is why every story of being an individual in a world of separate bodies demands the death of the dreamer. To the ego, justice always demands the death of anyone who buys into the dream of separation. In the ego's world, no one can escape death. The Holy Spirit knows that this belief is insanity.
The Holy Spirit's justice knows that everyone is still the same Love in God and so looks upon everyone as the same Love. Therefore the Holy Spirit teaches us to see past the differences we see in this world and know that no one could ever lose being all of God's Love. As we join with Holy Spirit's justice, we forgive or let go of our belief that there could ever be loss or differences of any kind; we forgive our belief in specialness.
How does the Holy Spirit judge us?
Why are Love and justice the same?
What is the special function that our one Self gives us?
Our special function is to see everyone equally as sinless. Our special function is to see that God created us all the same and that in truth, there are no differences. We are learning from our one Self to see that we all are the same sinless Son of God. As we extend to everyone equally the special function that our one Self gives us, we give impartial witness to the power of God's Love and justice. And what we give, we receive because there is but one Self.
What rights has God appointed for His holy Son?
What does the magic of the world seem to hide?
In Chapter 1 Jesus defines sin as "lack of love." (T-1.IV.3:1) The Holy Spirit helps us understand in this section that even though we may be attracted to the glitter and guile of experiencing the differences of separation and making decisions on our own, the cost of separation from Love is to experience lack of Love (or sin). The magic of the world hides the truth that our Reality is only Love. As we choose magic, Love disappears from our awareness and appears dead to us. Here we see that the magic of the world is really the cause of all our fear and pain and why we feel a haunting sense of unworthiness and lack.
The deceptive "glitter" of the world comes in many forms. It may be a special person who seems to make us happy; a job or title that seems to make us important or valuable; a new car, jewelry or clothing; security based on the size of our income, bank account or retirement plan, to name a few examples. Having these things may seem to make us happy or safe. But because they are forms and not eternal, they bring with them an underlying fear and guilt because unconsciously we know that they are substitutes for God's Love. These substitutes hide God's Love from our awareness.
The good news is that even though we are trying to deny Reality, the Holy Spirit is still in our minds, waiting for us to be open to returning to the truth that we are still safe in God because it is just an illusion that we left Love's oneness.
Why does Jesus tell us that the ego's world is a world of madness?
Here we see the viewpoints of being Love and being separate from Love are mutually exclusive and neither can conceive of the other way of seeing. This insane world was made to make lack of Love seem real and possible. Jesus tells us this, not to make us feel guilty, but to help us be willing to give up our belief in being separate from our one Self in God. As we are willing to give up our treasured insane belief in separation, the truth will return to our tortured minds. Peace replaces our insane thinking.
What makes the Son a co-creator with the Mind Whose Thought created him?
What makes God's Son a co-creator is the knowledge that he shares the attributes of God. God is changeless and so must be His Son. God is eternal Love that extends only Love and so must His Son be changeless Love that extends only Love.
Jesus tells us, "So if he chooses to believe one thought opposed to truth, he has decided he is not his Father's Son because the Son is mad, and sanity must lie apart from both the Father and the Son. This you believe." (4:4-5) When we believe we are separate, we believe we are disconnected from God's Love and have lost It. Believing now that loss is possible, the idea that everyone must gain as Love is extended anywhere seems impossible and insane. From the viewpoint of being separate, it is inconceivable that Love is given equally to all and everyone gains by giving It. But when we identify with Love as What we are, our only thought is to extend Love. The idea of withholding It or losing It is inconceivable.
How does the Holy Spirit bridge us out of our insanity?
To build a bridge from our insane perspective to the truth of the reality of Love, the Holy Spirit offers us the special forms that help us loosen our mad belief in being alone and begin to open to the possibility of the reality of the oneness and completeness of Love. The Holy Spirit reverses our thinking to realize that only God's Love is dependable in every situation we find ourselves in.
What is the rock on which salvation rests?
When we return to the truth that there is only oneness and only Love is real, as Love is extended It is extended to all equally. Love's oneness is why everyone must gain if anyone would be a gainer. Love's oneness is why no one can lose for anyone to gain. Love's oneness is why extending Love to all equally is the rock on which salvation rests. Love, to be Love, can only be extended to all equally because all is one Love. In oneness, Love can only extend Love to all of It's one Self.
What happens when we view the world through forgiving eyes?
When we look on the world with forgiving eyes, we are able to see as Christ sees: We see through kind and gentle eyes that in reality there are no differences; we see only oneness and innocence; we see that everyone is still safe in the Mind of God, just as we are.
What brings the gift of Light that makes sight possible?
The Course tells us many times in many ways that we see what we want to see. When we want to see through the eyes of Christ, we, in effect are 'calling down the grace of God upon our eyes.' (3:1) It is our honest desire to see everyone as God sees him that calls the Light to come forth in our minds. We call on the strength of God as we continue to be vigilant only for God's Kingdom. The separated world of the ego is not what we want to see. As the gift of Light comes forth in our minds, the veil of separation is lifted and we are able to see the eternal Love behind all the ego's manufactured stories of differences, time and space.
What does the Holy Spirit use to translate specialness into healing?
What is our special function according to the Holy Spirit?
When we chose specialness to be our guide in what we want to see, we damned our self to the ego's hellish world of unique and separate bodies that made decisions on their own. To maintain this illusion of separation requires that we project guilt onto everyone we now see as outside us. The ego's little secret is that when we project guilt onto others, we feel more guilty and unworthy than ever. The ego doesn't tell us that as we see others we will see our self. The ego also doesn't tell us that when we chose to cut ourselves off from the awareness of God's oneness, we also, in effect, cut ourselves off from God's gifts of peace, joy and happiness. We lost our awareness of our eternal safety in Love's unity and the fact that we are still one with God.
What are we reminded of as we take part in the world's undoing?
When do we finally see sinlessness?
Sinless means not separated from Love, not separated from God, our Source. Being sinless means that our eternal state of being is not separate from Love. It means that we are still are united with Love and share all of God's Love with All of our one Self. We see sinlessness everywhere when we are willing to see every Son of God as he truly is — the pure extension of God's Love and nothing else.
The ego's (false mind) replacement for what God knows is to see different and unique bodies, separate and alone. We see the ego's replacement for Love's oneness when we look through the body's eyes (the ego's vehicle to see separation) and believe that what we see is true.
Why are attack and sin the same fearful illusion?
Attack means to attempt to kill or destroy. Sin means to be separate from Love, our Source. In our false mind we attack or try to deny Love's oneness in order to see the illusion of separation (the state of trying to exist as a separate being, different and outside of God's oneness).
How do we let go of making our Self our enemy?
He tells us this because seeing the truth — the Christ — dissolves the ego's premise that separation is real. The ego only holds the idea of separation in our mind by projecting the guilt that comes with believing in separation onto everyone who we perceive as 'outside' us. When we are willing to let go of projecting guilt, the ego's chief weapon against your true Self is disabled. Seeing innocence replaces seeing guilt. As seeing guilt falls away and dissolves, the ego thought system dissolves and falls away. As the ego falls away, our one Self, which has always been there, returns to our awareness. We see that God's Son is one and not separate. We see that nothing has really happened, but only seemed to happen. We see past the illusion of separation to the eternal truth of Love's oneness. The peace and joy of our one Self replaces the fearful dream of being separate and alone.
What is every brother really asking for from us?
What brings us a sense of safety and joy?
Remembering that minds are joined and are not separate brings us a sense of safety and joy because with this remembering comes the recognition that there is no cause for guilt because we have not attacked God's creation. We are still innocent because we are still the same Love as God. Remembering that minds are joined is the same as remembering that nothing has happened to change God's one Son. Because of this there is only innocence to see.
As we celebrate the truth that minds are joined, we have the same purpose as our Father, which is to extend all Love to all of Itself. Beholding innocence, which is all that is true, brings us great joy and peace. We feel safe because we know that we are Love and we are surrounded by Love.
What happens when we think that believing in a world of separate bodies will bring us joy?
In this section we are told that we always seek for what we think will bring us joy as we define it. Jesus tells us in paragraph 2: "And while you think that suffering and sin will bring you joy, so long will they be there for you to see. Nothing is harmful or beneficent apart from what you wish. It is your wish that makes it what it is in its effects on you." (2:2-3) We most likely do not realize that thinking that minds are separate is the same as the denial of God's Oneness and therefore the denial of God, which brings guilt. We do not realize that belief in separation is what is causing us the pain, fear, lack and experience of loss. We do not realize that belief in specialness and differences is the cause of our experience of sickness and death. We do not consciously realize that we are asking for hell when we choose to believe in a world of being separate from God and every brother.
How do we help every brother and ourselves as we share our Father's purpose of extending only Love to All?
What is perception's fundamental law?
Jesus tells us, "…perception's fundamental law: You see what you believe is there, and you believe it there because you want it there." (1:3) God's law, on the other hand says that …"Love creates Itself, and nothing but Itself." (1:6) Here we are told that we see a world of separate bodies because we want separate bodies to be real. We see what we want to see. As we open to the truth, we see that only God's eternal Love is real because that is all that has ever been created by God. This is the thought reversal that the Holy Spirit leads us to as we are willing to listen to our true Self. Once we join with the one purpose of the Holy Spirit, we find that there is no choice — only what God creates could ever be real.
Why does Jesus say that there are two who make the world?
Because God could not enter His Son's insanity with him, He sent the Holy Spirit — the Corrector of all our mistaken thoughts — to help us return to the Truth as we are willing to have our mistaken thoughts corrected. The Holy Spirit came with us into our dream of separation to reverse the purpose of the world from one of seeing specialness (uniqueness and guilt) to a world where we see only innocence and unity.
When does Heaven's Help come to help us?
What happens when we choose to avail ourselves of the help given us?
As we accept Holy Spirit's help, what do our brother's errors become to us?
Jesus tells us, "Let all your brother's errors be to you nothing except a chance for you to see the workings of the Helper given you to see the world He made instead of yours." (7:2) The Holy Spirit always sees past the error's of the world to the eternal innocence that is always the truth. The Holy Spirit remembers for us that everyone is still perfect Love, as God created them. The Holy Spirit remembers that nothing has really happened to change God's one Son. When we truly want to see innocence instead of guilt, that is what we will see. When we accept Christ's vision we will see Christ's vision. This is what the Holy Spirit brings to us as we are willing to see the real world.
What is the only value that the past can hold?
The idea of time, with a past and a future, comes from within the ego thought system. It is founded on the idea that God's Son could separate from God's oneness and be separate and alone. The thought system of separation from God made up the false idea of 'time,' with a past and future that is constantly changing. This idea was set in place to replace God's Creation, which is changeless and therefore the eternal now.
Tied with the false idea of time that is constantly changing is the idea that we we can have individual 'lives' as separate bodies that are born into a world where everything is different and in a constant state of flux and change. In this false story, our 'life' ends with the death of the body.
If we think we are here in a separate body with a lot of other separate bodies, we have bought into the ego idea of being separate and alone and have become lost in nightmares of being born into a constantly changing world that ends in sickness and death. We do not realize that we have just become lost in nightmarish dreams that we have changed from how we were created by God.
Part of the ego plan to displace the guilt that comes from the choice to be separate from God is to project this guilt onto the 'other' separate bodies we see around us in this dream. Inherent in the ego identity is self-ishness, or the belief that each individual person needs to look out for his/her own self-interest in order to survive and be happy. This makes for a world where everyone must protect their own self-interest or they will surely lose. This story of separation guarantees defense and attack, with plenty of guilt to go around for everyone caught up in this dream.
This is also why Jesus tells us in this section: "The only value that the past can hold is that you learn it gave you no rewards which you would want to keep. For only thus will you be willing to relinquish it, and have it gone forever." (1:7-8) We have been afraid of the Light of truth in the past, but now we know that our present happiness depends on letting go of that storehouse of guilty memories.
What does Jesus tell us are the only rewards for treasuring the world we see?
What is our alternative to treasuring the world we see?
How does God respond to our seeing every brother as God created them?
Why are we the same as every brother?
We are the same as every brother because …"God Himself is One, and not divided in His Will." (11:1) This means we cannot be different and alone. As we are willing to see through the eyes of Christ, we see that we never left God's Oneness, and neither has our brother. We let go of the past and remember the eternal present because we all are still as God created us, right now.
Why does Jesus tell us that we are not within a body?
Here we see that the one Christ Mind lies within each of us. The united Mind of Christ is at the center of our real Life, the Life we live in God. Our real Life has nothing to do with the body or separate identity in our dream of separation. Because we are one with God, we were not 'born' as a separate body and we do not 'die' when the body dies in the dream. We are all united as eternal Spirit in God's oneness.
What is our mission the Christ sets forth for us with every brother?
What is the role the Holy Spirit plays in linking us with the Christ Mind?
What is the truth that the Holy Spirit leads us all to?

#166236 - 02/03/09 05:15 PM electrocution of handwell near light pole.
have you guys notice electrocution from electrical handwell near light poles?
There have been numerous electrocution of kids and dogs in Toronto due to corrode wires in handwells. I wonder if you guys notice in US.
Most of the recent electrocutions I have heard of involved copper thieves. I don't doubt it is possible that I have missed it though. In the last four years, son#1 and I have found two crispy critters laying in the freeway while coming home from late night hockey practice.
Seems folks tend to try the freeway light standards late at night, I guess just because the lights are off???
Once they get the wrong light, it is pretty quick. We have never seen someone injured, just dead.
When you say "kids", do you mean teens? Maybe there was more than met the eye going on??
Wow! Thanks for the heads up on this.
Rubber shoes for the walkers, rubber booties for the dogs.
Rubber booties ain't gonna cut it if the dog lifts his leg near the lightpole. He'll only ever do it once.
...while coming home from late night hockey practice.
Knew there was something about you that was good!
Apparently the issue in Toronto is where underground electrical connections, installed with metal covers experience leaking to the cover. When you step on one that is leaking you get zapped.
To accurately determine which of the 15,000 boxes are faulty they have to inspect each one by removing the cover. Some are bolted in place, corroded, etc. Some have to be jack hammered out to test them! New plastic/composite boxes are being used. They expect it to take a couple of months to check all of them. Advise is not to step on any metal box in the sidewalk!
That link to the ConEd experience sounds like a similar issue.
Son#1 has been playing since he was 6. Started with inline and moved to ice. We have traveled the world with it since. I miss getting to help on the rink, but I have ZERO business out there.
While in construction, I have seen things with electrical boxes that would make the average citizen faint with fright. We had a composite box run over by a tractor and destroyed in a residential area. I called the local utility after securing the area from passers-by. (KIDS!) Waited for 6 hours for the utility to show up. Then I built a box from 2x4's and sheets of OSB (wafer board) around it and went home. Called the utility for every day the following 2 months. They finally came and fixed it.
I've seen lots of light poles along city sidewalks with the acess covers at the bottom missing and wires exposed. Seems to be a normal thing.
"Rubber booties ain't gonna cut it if the dog lifts his leg near the lightpole."
Rubber shoes, rubber booties for the dog, and a RUBBER BAND until you get to the park!

I use the video module.
But when I upload from youtube , the name of the tread is too long and the user is unaware of what it is because there are treads with a similar beginning of the name.
I want to show the whole name when I put my mouse on the image of tread.
For example : This is my two posts related to powerpoint tutorials.
In the first, it does not even look to powerpoint, but that is not so important because there are categories.
But the name can refer to two or more themes, and the user can be confusing.
It does not have to be strictly popup message, but can be extended name of tread as it is.
srkisara, sorry, but i don't think it's possible via standard means. Maybe some custom coding.

Welcome to the Pleasant Lake Protective Association (PLPA) website!
The PLPA was incorporated in 1969 by a group of far-sighted New London residents who valued the wonderful natural resource we have in Pleasant Lake and wanted to provide for its long-term protection. Thirty-seven years later in 2006, we revised our articles of agreement and by-laws to better reflect the increased array and complexity of our yearly activities. Those revisions also helped the PLPA qualify as a 501(c) 3 non-profit organization in 2007.
As you explore the many aspects of the PLPA and the important work it does, please consider joining us as a member and/or as a volunteer. Pleasant Lake is very special and we, like the far-sighted people who founded the PLPA so long ago, need to work hard to protect and preserve this natural treasure for generations to come.
Keep Pleasant Lake a special place
For all who visit or live in New London, NH, or the surrounding communities, the importance of Pleasant Lake to our sense of place, and the regional watershed is unquestionable. The Pleasant Lake Protective Association, as a recognized 501 (c) 3 tax exempt non-profit organization, is dedicated to responsible stewardship of the lake's quality, natural beauty, and recreational opportunities.
Get the Lead Out!
Lead is 100% fatal to Loons & other Waterbirds
Pleasant Lake reminds all anglers that a new law increasing protection for loons from lead fishing tackle went into effect in 2016. This current law bans the SALE and the freshwater USE of lead sinkers and jigs weighing one ounce or less. What's in your tackle box and on your fishing line? Please dispose of the old lead tackle properly. Please obey the law and stop using lead tackle!
Septic System Basics
Many homeowners rely on a buried and poorly understood on-site septic system to treat and...
How a Lake Works / Stewardship
A lake reflects a complex interaction of many geologic, biologic, chemical, and other factors. To properly and effectively protect a lake, it is important for everyone within a watershed to understand how a lake works so that appropriate stewardship behaviors can be adopted.
The Pleasant Lake Protective Association asks that you all please consider participating in the PLPA "Get The Lead Out!" campaign.
All Things Pleasant On The Lake
The romance of the wild...We feel that romance this time of year. During April and early May the lakes belong to the loons. We are mere spectators. The sight of Mother and Father Loon cruising the lake together is likely to bring tears of joy.
Our Education Programs
More Education Programs
Watershed Conservation
PLPA works to collect information concerning development, possible zoning changes and subdivision regulations within the Pleasant Lake watershed and works with the PLPA Board to determine appropriate action if Pleasant Lake or its watershed is threatened.
Fish Conservation
PLPA assists and supports the work of federal, state and local authorities in protecting Pleasant Lake's natural population of fish.
PLPA monitors and reports on the state of water birds and the other wildlife of Pleasant Lake and its watershed. It also works to protect the natural populations of these water birds and other wildlife. The top priority is the Common Loon, a threatened species in the State of New Hampshire.
Invasive Weed Prevention
PLPA works to keep exotic invasive weeds out of Pleasant Lake. This committee is responsible for two very important PLPA programs: the Lake Host Program and Weed Watchers.

Q: Get HTML Element on Angular Controller Load I simply want to access my HTML div element "myDigramDiv" from within my controller so that I can initialize it as a GoJS graph like this:
var graph = go.GraphObject.make;
var myDiagram: go.Diagram =
  graph(go.Diagram, "myDiagramDiv", {
    initialContentAlignment: go.Spot.Center, // center Diagram contents
    "undoManager.isEnabled": true // enable Ctrl-Z to undo and Ctrl-Y to redo
  });

I have tried many SO suggestions on how to call  a function once the myDiagramDiv is ready. The methods I've tried are listed below. NONE of them are able access to myDiagramDiv through either the GoJS graph initialization code OR  $("myDiagramDiv").get() (jQuery). But I CAN access the element and through either of these methods when I simply put them in my "cancel" function, which fires on a button click within the dialog.
$(document).ready(function() {
  console.log("ready!");
});

angular.element(document).ready(function() {
  console.log("ready!");
});

$(function() {
  console.log("ready!");
});

$scope.$on('$viewContentLoaded', function() {
  console.log("ready!");
});

// ng-init function associated with myDiagramDiv
$scope.diagramInit = function() {
  console.log("ready!");
};

$scope.cancel = function() {
  var graph = go.GraphObject.make;
  var myDiagram: go.Diagram =
    graph(go.Diagram, "myDiagramDiv", {
      initialContentAlignment: go.Spot.Center, // center Diagram contents
      "undoManager.isEnabled": true // enable Ctrl-Z to undo and Ctrl-Y to redo
    });
};

And here is myDiagramDiv:
<div id="myDiagramDiv" ng-init="diagramInit()" style="width:900px; height:600px; background-color: #DAE4E4;">

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I feel like I must be close and also doing something silly to not be able to manipulate my DOM element anywhere but a button callback.

Tales from Anatolia: Hekatesia 2005
NB This is the report I wrote after the first visit to Lagina in 2005.
In June 2012 I finally returned to Bodrum and whilst some things had changed … the road to Labranda for example is a complete mess due to lorries constantly transporting stones from the quarries … the tranquility of the temple is still there.
For my follow-up article elsewhere in WR-online, see here.
Hail and welcome!
"PFI Turkey – Hekatesia 2005"
Once upon a time… well this really does sound like a fairytale come true. In September 2004 I met a Turkish dance student at one of our Witches cafes. One thing lead to another and at Yule I met a girlfriend of his who lives in Istanbul. We chatted and ended up having this wonderful idea of setting up PFI Turkey. Many hours of Instant Messaging and emailing ensued but by February we had a website in Turkish, www.tr.paganfederation.org.
During our conversation I had expressed an interest in visiting Turkey and Atheneris just happened to mention some festivals, which are still celebrated in Turkey that are not particularly Islamic. Now I should mention immediately that Turkey is secular and there is complete separation between state and religion. At least this is their vision and in many respects Turkey is far more secular than most western so-called democracies, but that is another story!
To hear of pagan festivals still being celebrated was new to me and of course I wanted to hear more. Atheneris mentioned one very small village festival being held near to the site of the Temple of Hekate, Lagina. Lagina is not well known, partly because excavations have only been restarted recently – in 1999. The first excavations were made in the later 1800's.
(Lagina)
I expressed interest and so she started making inquiries. After many months of meetings with local archaeologists, the mayor of the village, tour guides and historians, plus booking flights and arranging accommodation Flora and I met in Bodrum, Western Turkey.
Our first few days were spent in visiting the local attractions in Bodrum or Halicarnassus (Bodrum's ancient name), including the Castle of St. Peter. This was built on the ruins of an older castle, now known to have been built by the Dorians around 1100 BC.
Perhaps the most famous ancient monument in Bodrum however is the Mausoleum, one of the Seven Wonders of the World.
Overlooking the Mausoleum are the ruins of an ancient theatre, which offers a marvellous view over Bodrum and the Castle.
On another occasion we had a private tour to Euromos where we saw the Temple of Zeus, followed by a visit to Didyma and the Temple of Apollo. Not far from Didyma is the ancient city of Miletos, where we saw a marvellous example of a theatre.
We were later joined by our guests from the UK and made a return journey to visit the wonderful Temple complex at Ephesus. Semih our tour guide on this particular occasion told us much about Turkish and Anatolian history. He also told us about the 'Hellenisation of Turkey' and the settlement of Greeks in this area, which explains why many of the best examples of Greek architecture are in fact in modern Turkey. One begins to understand how important Anatolia is to European history – it is veritable open-air museum here. But so far we had visited the more touristy areas. And I could also spend much more time writing about these wonders.
Ephesus too is another one of the 'Seven Wonders of the World'…
(Ephesus)
However the aim of this visit was about to unfold. We picked up our last guests – three pagan friends from the US – at Bodrum Airport and journeyed to Turgut, via Milas, north-east of Bodrum.
Fred Lamond, who had also joined us, continues the story:
"(I was)… just in time to join the main party in the minibus to Turgut Village on 16 September, with a visit to an opencast coal mine on the way, where many archaeological artefacts are frequently found.
(Turgut dancers)
The Hekatesia festival, that has been taking place since 2000, is mostly a video show for the benefit of the inhabitants of neighbouring Turgut village of who Hekate was in Ancient Anatolia and of the progress of the excavations, but included this year for our benefit a splendid procession by the students of an Istanbul drama school. This was unfortunately spoiled by a swarm of press photographs that accompanied the procession taking constant photographs from all angles as it proceeded.
The day after the official festival, on the evening of 17 September, our group was allowed to hold a private ceremony in the temple ruins, which in the bright moonlight had a remarkable atmosphere.
(Sanctuary of Hekate, Lagina)
The place was full of power despite not having been used as a place of Pagan worship for 1600 years. The 1000 previous years of continuous worship must have left their mark, or else it is a natural power spot and was chosen for that reason as the location of a temple to Hekate. After linking in a circle we each of us went individually to address our own personal prayers to Hekate, and I felt a very strong personal contact with the Goddess."
(Statue of Hekate)
Indeed the Carian Hekate is quite different to the Hellenic or Shakespearian image of Hekate many of us are used to. However the image we saw was quite different. Pictured as a young maiden carrying one and sometimes two torches, she is the one who lights the way.
From Albert Henrichs:
"Hectare was a popular and ubiquitous goddess from the time of Hasid until late antiquity… she emerges by the 5th cent. As a more sinister divine figure associated with magic and witchcraft, lunar lore and creatures of the night, dog sacrifices and illuminated caves, as well as doorways and crossroads."
From Hekate's History:
"Hekate probably originated in the mythology of the Karians in southwest Asia Minor, and was integrated into Greek religion around the sixth century BCE. However, there is evidence that Hekate evolved from the Egyptian midwife goddess Heqit, (alternatively spelt 'Heket' or 'Hekat'.) The frog headed goddess Heqit assisted with the daily birth of the Sun and was associated with the apparently magical germination of the seemingly lifeless corn seed. In pre-dynastic Egypt the matriarch and wise woman of the tribe was called the 'heq'. It's interesting to note that Hekate is associated with childbirth."
See also the article 'Triads and Trinities – The origin of the Modern Pagan Goddess' by Prudence Jones, updated and published in Wiccan Rede Lammas 2005.
She writes of the early Hekate:
"Inscriptions from the 3rd–2nd century BCE in the adjoining city, Stratonikeia, describe her as 'Greatest Goddess'; she is paired with the local Zeus, himself called 'Greatest God'; and like Cybele in Phyrgia she was served in her temple by sacred eunuchs. Images there show her as a single figure, seated on a throne, or sometimes with lions, often standing, her veil inflated in a crescent-shaped nimbus above her head. We may suspect that a goddess so richly honoured by the all-powerful Olympian Zeus was a local ruling goddess who was being 'bought off' by a newly-dominant priesthood, and so it appears to be. Hesiod's father came from the neighbouring province, Lycia in Asia Minor, which had been colonised by Greek-speaking peoples as recently as the ninth and eighth centuries BCE, and so the importance of the ancestral deities was no doubt vivid in the memory of his son the poet.
Hekate's original name, Akta, is Carian, its meaning unknown, but to the average Ancient Greek its naturalised form would recall hekaton, one hundred, and thus with her abundant riches she was, so to speak, the goddess of millionaires, invoked by everyone for prosperity and good fortune in all areas of life (Theogony 416 ff.). As the goddess at home in all worlds (the three levels of heaven into which the sun and planets moved throughout their cycles, called the Three Ways in Babylonian astro-cosmology), she was goddess of the roads, guardian of the gates and guarantor of safe conduct. She was called 'Protectress' and Lady of the Ways, and sometimes shown holding a key."
Her Temple at Lagina was a thriving centre and was linked by a processional way to Stratoniceia
"The city was named after Stratonice, the wife of Seleucus Nicator who forced the old king to divorce in order to marry his son Antiochus I Soter who founded the city in honour of his erstwhile step-mother and present wife. The most significant Hellenistico–Roman vestiges are the Entrance Gate, the Gymnasium, the Bouleuterion located at the centre of the city, the Theatre.
The 11 km/ 7 miles long Sacred Road, lined with tombs and starting from the entrance gate, connected Stratoniceia, which was the political centre, to Lagina Sanctuary, the prominent religious centre of Caria dedicated to Hecate. This Anatolian goddess was Leto's twin sister. She reigned over the air, earth and sea, and she was present at funerals to take care of the deads' spirits. Oracles and witches were her priests. During religious festivals, a splendid ritual procession carried the key of the Temple of Hecate from Lagina to Stratoniceia."
The Lagina Sanctuary, which was a prominent cult centre of the Carians is still famous today and is also known by the name of Leyne. Recent research has revealed that this region was inhabited from the Antique Bronze Age (3000 B.C.) on to the present. The Kings of Selecucid dynasty by virtue of great constructional efforts, built the Lagina sanctuary as a religious centre and the city of Stratoniceia, 11 km. away, was the political centre. At the Lagina sanctuary there are propylon (monumental gateway), the interconnecting Sacred Road, an altar (sacrificial and dipping place), peribolos (wall encircling the sanctuary), Doric stoa and the Temple of Hecate.
The sanctuary is surrounded by walls of about two meters in height, which also form the back wall of the stoa. The monumental entrance building, with three entrances and an apsis at the western end supported by four Ionian columns, is connected to the stoa with a door. From the monumental entrance gate to the altar, there are ten rows of steps leading to the stone-paved road.
The temple, encircled with five rows of steps, located on an Attic Ionian pedestal, with a single row of columns with Corinthian capital, is at the centre of the sanctuary. The temple is pseudo-dipteral with 8×11 columns, and is built in the Corinthian style.
The inscriptions at Lagina and on the walls of the Bouleterion at Stratoniceia reveal that those two cities were connected by a Sacred Road and during festivities a splendid ritual procession carried the key of the temple from Lagina to Stratoniceia
And on the website http://www.mugla-turizm.gov.tr/en/14120.asp we read:
On the remaining gate there is an inscription, which mentions Augustus having restored it in 27 BC. The temple was built according to Hellenistic fashion of the time in the Corinthian style, though interpreted in a modernist manner by the founders of Stratonikea, the Seleucids, who especially used it in the building of this temple. The father of Turkish museums, Osman Hamdi Bey, carried out excavations at Lagina between 1891-1893. The inscriptions found were taken to the Istanbul Museums of Archaeology. Today excavations are being carried out under the direction of Professor Dr Ahmet A. Tırpan. During recent excavations the architectural portions of the temple were put in an orderly fashion, the propylon was dug up and totally unearthed and a so far undefined sacred structure was discovered.
We were very fortunate to meet Dr. Tirpan and his archaeological team. He has been at the Lagina site since 1999. The video and presentation he gave on the Friday evening was interesting to watch. They are the first Turkish scientists to have excavated a sacred site. Usually it has been the British, German, Swedish who have excavated in Turkey … and taken prize findings to the respective museums. Famous examples are the Gate of Miletos and the Pergamon Altar in Berlin. It is important to the Turkish people that their own scientists are now in charge and that artefacts are kept in Turkey. But this does not prevent cultural exchanges of course.
After leaving Turgut we visited the Museum at Milas, a small but lovely museum opened in 1987. There are many statues found for example at Stratonikea, in the 1500 m2 garden.
(Milas Museum)
(Gladiators, Milas Museum)
In the afternoon another 'wonder' was waiting for us at Labranda. Again joined by a processional way – this time 20 kms from Milas – the climb up the mountain path must have been strenuous for the ancient pilgrims. The view from this 'honey country' was breathtaking. I have been amazed at how green this area of Turkey is. With a Mediterranean climate one would have expected everything to have been brown and burnt by now – in late summer. But no, the greenness of the countryside was unbelievable.
I should mention one other eye-opener. I had always thought that the sacred double-axe, the labrys was a Minoan symbol. However it appears that THE ancient symbol for Karia is the labrys. It was no surprise then to find out that Zeus of Labranda carried a double axe.
(Labrys, Milas Museum)
"Labranda, which is the holy area of Zeus Labraundos, is in ancient Karia (South western Anatolia), 14 km north eastern of Mylasa city to which it is affiliated. The most ancient findings belong to the year 600 BC. The area that has been used as holy area in 6th and 5th centuries and then as temple terrace consisted of a single, small, artificial terrace. A war took place in the holy area in 497 and Karia army has been defeated by the Persian army with its alliances.
4th century BC is the most important period of the temple. At the times of the satraps named Mausolos (377 – 352 BC) and Idrieus (351 – 344 BC), this place gained a new appearance. In 355, during the sacrifice festival in Labranda, Mausolos escaped from an assassination towards him at the last moment.
(Labranda)
Buildings such as a series of artificial terraces here, one or two entrance buildings, a small Dor building (probably a fountain building), monumental stairs, two large feast halls (androns), shed building (named as oikoi), Stoa and Zeus Temple surrounded with columns must be constructed after this event. With the death of Idrieus in 344, such works have been stopped. Because of the big fire disaster that took place in 4th century BC, the holy area has lost its feature of being a cult place.
The excavation works here have been started in 1948 by A.W.Persson and are continuing with intervals since that time. The current excavations are being executed by P. Hellström.
The access from Mylasa to the holy area had been provided via the holy road having a width of 8 m. The laying traces on this road can be seen even today. Access to the area had been provided with one of the two entrance buildings (propylon). These were impressive passage doors made of Milas marble, having two columns and Ionian frontons on each side.
The building called as 'Dor building' was located at just east of the southern propylon building with its irregular formation close to a rectangle. It is a building that is turned towards north, has four columns, a front courtyard, a marble side and is in Dor style. It absolutely had the function of a fountain building. This small building has been included in the bath complex.
200 m west of the holy building lies the stadium whose back side is reinforced with a retaining wall. The starting and end stones of the competitions are still existing at both ends. It is supposed that some competitions have been made here during the feast of 5 days made in the holy area." (http://www.kultur.gov.tr/EN,39740/labranda.html)
However the most interesting spot for me was at the sacred spring, which still exists today, flowing under a huge rock that has spilt down the centre. As Genghis, our minibus driver noted, "here the sacred water springs form the earth. The sacred bee drinks the sacred water to make the sacred honey…" and indeed the honey was delicious.
(Sacred well at Labranda)
After Labranda we made our way back to Bodrum where we spent the last couple of days 'recovering' from our pilgrimage. No one wanted to leave, nor say good-bye to our Turkish friends. And now looking at my Artemis statue and blue and yellow evil-eye armband and other souvenirs of Karia, I am sure we will be back.
Fred added in his report:
"Turkish official interest in their pagan past, and tolerance for contemporary neo-Paganism contrasts very favourably with attitudes in France, where Paganism like all new religions is viewed with suspicion as a 'sect' and can be libelled with impunity, or Greece where Orthodox Christianity is regarded as so much part of the Greek national identity that any alternatives are implicitly if not always explicitly actively discouraged.
Turgut village, where we stayed, gave me a sense of déjà vu although this was my first visit to Turkey. And then I remembered Marcel Pagnol's films of the 1930s describing life in the Southern French villages of the Midi. People generally assume that Turkish secularism is limited to the sophisticated elites of Istanbul and Ankara, and that the countryside must be still strongly Islamic.
But with 1600 inhabitants and no hotel Turgut fulfilled most of the requirements of a backwoods village. Yet the only women wearing traditional Islamic dress with a scarf around the head were a few older women. Younger people of both sexes wore European style jeans and skirts. The only young women wearing Islamic dress I saw later in Istanbul and was assured by that they were Arab tourists.
All this removed any doubts that I had about Turkey's claim to be part of European culture. Of course the picture may be different in Eastern and South-Eastern Anatolia, but then so were Sardinia and Sicily equally different from the Northern Italian mainland 50 years ago and still are.
After we all said our goodbyes on 20 September I spent two days as a tourist in Istanbul, where I had also never been before."
It is hoped that we will repeat this visit and arrangements are already being made for a return visit in 2006. Many thanks to Atheneris, Boran and Semih and all the PFI delegates who helped in making this a memorable visit.

Woman arrested, accused of shooting, killing husband inside Fort Caroline Road home, family says

Kimberly Sue Heath, 45, was arrested and charged with murder. (Copyright 2022 by WJXT News4Jax - All rights reserved.)
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – A woman was arrested and accused of murder after a man was found dead Friday at a house in the Holly Oaks area, according to the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office.
Kimberly Heath, 45, was detained after the incident and faced a judge for murder charges on Saturday. Family members told News4JAX on Sunday that Heath is accused of killing her husband, 40-year-old Nathaniel Heath. The family said the two had an estranged relationship.
Sgt. Robby Henson with the JSO Homicide Unit said officers responded around about 11:50 a.m. to a shooting at a home on Fort Caroline Road just west of St. Johns Bluff Road and found the body of a man inside. The man had been shot at least once, according to the Sheriff's Office.
News4JAX spoke with Nathaniel Heath's mother Audrey Longley who said her son went to the home and she believes Kimberly Heath was waiting for him armed.

"I want to see her get the full extent of what could be done to her and I hate to say that because at one point I liked her and was trying to be there for her and my son," Longley said.
Longley said Heath, who friends call "Nate," was her only son and she's devastated to learn what happened to him.
"He was very happy-go-lucky. Everyone loved him. He wouldn't hurt a fly. Was very loved by many, many, many people. He was a good guy," Longley said.
Longley said her son and his wife moved back to Jacksonville from the Midwest to help her due to health issues she was dealing with.
Geoff Perrault said he lives at the home. He was at an appointment but got alerted by his home security camera system.
"I pulled up my phone. and all I see is there's police officers, and they're putting tape up around the house. I'm sitting there like 'What the heck's going on?'" Perrault said.
Perrault said he lives at the home with a roommate and said he has no idea what happened or who the person was that was found in the home.
NewsJAX spoke with Roger Longley, who had been waiting at the scene for hours, and he feared the person shot is his stepson. He wasn't able to confirm that was the case.
"We got a phone call -- my wife and I did -- there was police activity at a house here on Fort Caroline -- and they told me what the address was, we'd come straight over," Longley said.
As detectives continue to investigate, anyone with information about the case is asked to contact JSO by calling 904-630-0500 or emailing JSOCrimeTips@jaxsheriff.org. To remain anonymous, contact Crime Stoppers of Northeast Florida at 1-866-845-TIPS (8477).
The family started a fundraiser to raise money for Heath's funeral expenses.

Discovery of a Queen (Resurrection of Queens #1) by Elizabeth Brown – Free eBooks Download
My sisters have been in a magical slumber for centuries, my mother, the last great battle queen is dead, leaving me to face the world alone. I'm the last of my kind. A queen, not entirely shifter and not entirely witch but a perfect blend of both. I've been living in hiding for over four hundred years, avoiding ties with the supernatural community, specifically the Council and the Alpha of all alphas, like the plague. That is, until I find myself challenging for alpha of the New England pack in front of both the shifter and witch communities. Now, I'm the leader of both. Fuck, I'm the leader of both. I've put myself square in the Council's sight, my time in hiding forcibly over.
But the Council is the least of my problems. Malick, the oldest Archdemon to walk the earth, is still alive despite my mother's best efforts. His legion growing in number by the day. I may want to keep myself and my new community away from his legion, but I know that the only way we'll ever be safe is to kill him.
Countless queens have tried. All of them failing even with their alpha dragon mates and supernatural communities.
I'm going to have to work with the Alpha, Caleb, and the Council if I want to end Malick and wipe out his legion for good. Unfortunately, Caleb also happens to be my mate, as in soulmate, together forever, never to be parted, partners in crime. I know that he won't let me go after we've finished wiping Malick from the face of the earth. But I refuse to be subject to the Council's control.
I also need to find a way to wake my sisters because what's coming for us is far worse than Malick and there are no guarantees there will be any survivors.

Why was there a Reorganization of the POW/MIA Accounting Community?
The leak of the Cole Report in July 2013, and the release days later of a GAO Report described a mismanaged and dysfunctional effort to locate, recover and identify American Prisoners of War and those listed as Missing in Action worldwide. The uproar from POW/MIA families, veterans, concerned citizens and the media forced Congress and the Department of Defense to act.
On March 31, 2014, Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel ordered the total reorganization of the POW/MIA accounting effort, promising POW/MIA families they would have input in the process. The National Alliance of Families offered the following recommendation to correct past problems and regain the trust of POW/MIA families.
1. An immediate review of all Last Known Alive cases now considered "fate determined." In many of these cases DPMO/JPAC ignored, misrepresented or edited evidence to support its conclusion of "fate determined." An analyst and a family member or their authorized representative should meet to discuss and evaluate all evidence on a case with each providing their rationale for the conclusion reached. If this review indicates a premature "fate determination" the case must be returned to the list of unaccounted for, for additional investigation. If the analyst and family member/representative cannot reach an agreed upon conclusion, the case should go to an outside arbitrator for evaluation.
2. A review of all POW/MIA cases using the standards described above.
3. An immediate review of all remains identifications, by an independent board of forensic anthropologists, odontolgists, medical examiners and DNA experts. When a review indicates a mis-identification or scientifically unsupportable identification that case must be reviewed and if appropriate returned to the list of unaccounted for, for further investigation.
4. Immediately remove all personnel in upper and mid-level management and analysts currently working the POW/MIA issue. We cannot allow their mindset to contaminate a new organization. The transfer, in 1993, of DIA personnel to the newly formed DPMO proves this.
5. Work with Non-Government Organizations (NGO's) in the recovery and identification of remains worldwide. This would be especially beneficial in the recovery of World War II remains and the exhumation of World War II and Korean War remains buried with name associations in national cemeteries.
6. Suspend the use of the inferior mt-DNA in the remains identification process in favor of the proven and far more accurate Nuclear DNA testing.
7. Establish an independent ombudsman to whom POW/MIA families could address their concerns and complaints.
A new organization cannot expect the trust of POW/MIA families by saying "going forward we will get it right." To gain the trust of POW/MIA families any new organization must address the mistakes of the past, as it moves forward.
