Many persons have been wondering about their federal and state employment and collective bargaining rights. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson has a long history of issuing fair and balanced judicial decisions including those that effect employees' rights and collective bargaining. Prior to her being appointed to the US Supreme Court, Judge Jackson had to decide in AFGE whether a President's Orders were legitimate exercises of his authority. Part I on AFGE, may be read here for continuity. Her long history of issuing decisions that were both fair and balanced, was again displayed in this matter.
In AFGE, August 25, 2018, Judge Jackson found that certain provisions of the President's Orders plainly furthered Trump's intention to restrict the scope and effectiveness of federal employees' right to collective bargaining.
Yet in her fair and balanced opinion, Judge Jackson held that both sides' motions for summary judgment must be granted in part and denied in part. She ordered that the Court enjoin the President's subordinates within the Executive Branch to disregard certain but not all of the sections of the Orders because these directives undermined federal employees' right to bargain collectively as protected by the FSLMRS. She held that as a result, the President must be deemed to have exceeded his executive authority in issuing them.
Judge Jackson found that many but not all of the challenged provisions of the President's Orders constituted an improper exercise of his statutory authority to regulate federal employees' labor relations because they conflicted with the right to good-faith collective bargaining that the FSLMRS seeks to protect. However, the Orders that the President issued on May 25, 2018, would not be invalidated in total, because of the President's clear intent that any invalid provisions within these orders should be severable from the rest.
Because Judge Jackson ruled that some of the Union's challenged provisions of the Orders were not invalid, these provisions remained, along with the unchallenged parts of the Orders. In her balanced opinion, Judge Jackson stated in her Conclusion as follows:
"In their cross-motion for summary judgment, Defendants assert that the fact that the President's policy choices about how best to guide the conduct of employees in the Executive Branch do not align with Plaintiffs' own policy preferences is not a proper basis for seeking judicial review. This is undoubtedly true. But the core claim that the Unions make in the context of the instant case is that the President's policy choices as reflected in the challenged executive orders do not align with the policy preferences of Congress, and in this Court's view, that contention is undoubtedly true as well.
In short, there is no dispute that the principal mission of the FSLMRS is to protect the collective bargaining rights of federal workers, based on Congress's clear and unequivocal finding that labor organizations and collective bargaining in the civil service are in the public interest."... Congress did not intend for union challenges to the validity of executive orders that threaten such collective bargaining rights to be funneled to the FLRA. Upon exercising its subject-matter jurisdiction over the ripe claims that the Unions bring here, this Court has concluded that many of the challenged provisions of the Orders at issue here effectively reduce the scope of the right to bargain collectively as Congress has crafted it, or impair the ability of agency officials to bargain in good faith as Congress has directed, and therefore cannot be sustained.
As a result, and as set forth in the accompanying Order, this Court will declare the following provisions invalid, and will enjoin the President's subordinates from implementing or giving effect to: Executive Order 13,836 §§ 5(a), 5(e), 6; Executive Order 13,837 §§ 3(a), 4(a), 4(b); and Executive Order 13,839 §§ 3, 4(a), 4(c). What remains—Executive Order 13,836 § 5(c); Executive Order 13,837 §§ 2(j), 4(c); and Executive Order 13,839 §§ 2(b), 2(c), 4(b)(iii), 7—are the few challenged directives that have neither
reduced the scope of protected collective bargaining] rights nor hampered good faith bargaining, and, thus, cannot be said to conflict with the FSLMRS.
Furthermore, given these conclusions, the parties' various cross-motions for summary judgment are GRANTED IN PART AND DENIED IN PART."
It is hopeful for furtherance of employee rights, that Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson will continue her history of balanced and fair decisions.

Streams in the Desert – The Story of Algodão de Jandaíra , Brazil
by Steve Loopstra
The city of Algodão de Jandaíra was dying. Those who could had left and the remaining two thousand were living in "survival mode." No significant rain had fallen in that region of Northern Brazil for 23 years. The little available water was brown and brackish. Living in mud and stick houses, most of the people survived from day to day on meager rations – sometimes with only cactus leaves and coffee for breakfast. Those who lived there at the time described the area as "grey…everything was grey." But God had a plan and a destiny for little Algodão. And in the Fall of 2002, He was about to implement His plan.
In the suburbs of the city of João Pessoa, First Baptist Church of Valentina was a fairly typical Baptist Church. Pastor Eneas was a fourth-generation pastor, and his wife, Simone, had known all her life she wanted to be a pastor's wife. 2002 marked their seventh year in João Pessoa, as a church plant from a large church in São Paulo. They planned a seven-day celebration with worship, teaching, and outreach. As they prepared for that celebration, God began to meet them in some very special and deep ways. One day, after the choir had been practicing, the Spirit of God came upon them in a deep move of repentance and reconciliation. Then again, the next week, the same thing happened. This was new to them, so they were cautious about such experiences, but God was about to implement His plan.
One week, Simone brought a CD for the group to hear. The CD had deeply impacted Simone, and she thought it would move the group toward their missionary goals. Vitoria had come that night intending to resign from the choir, as the events in her life were just too overwhelming. Her father's ill health had taken such a toll on her that she could not see any way to both care for her father and keep her commitments to the church. She felt she had no choice but to tell Simone this night that she would quit. However, as Vitoria began to listen to the testimony of the missionary on this CD, she felt like she was right there with him. To her it was so vivid that she felt next to him in the Amazon jungles, and then in the U.S. These stories so impacted her that, on her way home, she realized she had not had a chance to tell Simone of her intentions. Instead, she lay in bed praying for missions, unable to sleep. Finally, about 3 a.m., she slipped into a deep sleep. While she slept she had an amazing dream. She was standing at a road. A great hand pointed down the road and she heard a voice say, "My daughter, it's not Cajazeiras. It's Algodão. It's Algodão de Jandaíra."
Somehow, she knew at the end of the reddish brown dirt road was a city, and she responded, "I know."
When Vitoria awoke she was in a panic. The church had been planning a great outreach event to Cajazeiras, a city out in the country. Now Vitoria must tell them they were not to go there, but rather to Algodão. The other problem was that no one had ever heard of Algodão.The next week, desperate for confirmation, Vitoria knelt on her living room rug and said, "Lord, if this dream is from you, you must tell me the other part of this name." (She had forgotten the last part of the city's name, only remembering Algodão.) "My family is not going to eat, and I am not going to get up from here until you tell me." After some time, the Lord told her to get up and go to her daughter's room. There she found new geography text books, and, as she turned the pages, she found a newer map of her state which included the city, Algodão de Jandaíra!
With this confirmation, the church planned to visit this city – about three and a half hours northwest of João Pessoa. They sold baked goods to raise money for gas, and since no one in the choir, the worship team, or the dance team had a car, they had to borrow an old Volkswagen to make the trip. Before they departed, Vitoria had another vision of Algodão. This time she saw a young girl with curly hair, wearing red shorts and a blue blouse. Four of them drove and found the narrow dirt road leading off into the distance. It was hard to imagine that any town was at the end of that road.
Everything was desolate and grey. The red clay and gravel road led over river beds that had not seen water in decades. Yet everything they saw was exactly like Vitoria had seen in her dream. When they came to the town and drove the few streets, a little girl with curly hair, wearing red shorts and a blue blouse, passed in front of their car three times. What confirmation! Yet more confirmation was to come. The team began going door to door to meet people and to share the reason for their visit. When Vitoria came to one house, she could hear someone inside praying. There, an old man was sitting at his table praying, "Lord, send missionaries to this town, it is so poor and so needy." Through her tears, Vitoria shared that God was indeed answering his prayers.
Over the next year, First Baptist Church of Valentina sent teams to minister in practical ways to the people of Algodão de Jandaíra, along with preaching the Gospel of God's love. Many of the people were touched by the love of these believers, and nearly every household had at least one person who received Christ. But the people from First Baptist were still heartbroken. All their efforts seemed so little compared with the great needs of the people of Algodão. Still they were faithful to drive the three and a half hours, sometimes enduring flat tires and mechanical breakdowns, because the Lord had laid this little city on their hearts. For Christmas of 2003, the church decided they would not exchange their customary Christmas gifts, but would instead pool all their money to buy gifts for the people of Algodão. It was a great celebration, and many were touched with the true meaning of Christmas. But as the church people again returned home they felt they had done so little. They knew if something was going to change God would have to do it.
As they made the trip up to Algodão in January 2004, something was different. They noticed it was not as dusty as it usually was. As they drove over the road, they began to hear a roaring noise. Nearing the formerly-dry river bed, they found it was impassable because of water now rushing past them.
Loading their boxes and goods on their shoulders, they walked the rest of the way into town. What they found astounded them. The formerly-dry reservoir was overflowing – so much that the townspeople had to help them walk across the spillway that had three to four inches of water rushing over it. The people were celebrating and were so happy to see them. The townspeople excitedly related that shortly after the church members had left in December, the rains began to come. At first, they were in the distance. Then great torrents drenched Algodão. People came out from their houses to dance in the streets to celebrate the falling rain. Water from a rock in a distant mountain joined with the rain to fill the reservoir and completely change little Algodão de Jandaíra. God was fulfilling His plan.
At that time, Algodão de Jandaíra was a city of about 2,000 residents with many living in mud-waddle shacks. There were few paved streets, and almost no water table. Water had to be trucked in and it was brown and brackish. Nothing grew in Algodão, and the reservoir was dry. Today, Algodão de Jandaíra is a community in the midst of transformation. The reservoir is full, and contains fish and shrimp that are harvested regularly. Several different kinds of crops grow in the area – enough to feed the city, with an excess to export to other communities. Many people now have new cinder block homes and are able to grow crops in their back yards. This was unheard of before the rains. The people of Algodão call the rains "showers of blessing." Many said that when the rains came, everyone knew it was because of the prayers of the Christians. A Baptist church now meets there, and people are continuing to come to faith in Christ. The Christian mayor recently gave the keys of the city to Jesus. They now have paved roads, and they have built a community center along with a health clinic open 24 hours a day.
The Lord's blessings extended as well to First Baptist Church of Valentina. Once a small church of 150, the church has come alive, and is regularly reaching out into the community of João Pessoa, and seeing people come to faith in Christ. Their acts of simple obedience were remarkable. If God said it, then the people obeyed. As the church reached out to pray for Algodão and share their meager resources with them, God's hand of blessing and favor has been upon their church in João Pessoa. Over and over, one is impressed by the humble faith of these people whose "normal" Church life was interrupted by the power of God's Spirit for a task beyond their understanding or abilities.

Sunderland run rule over striker
Chris Thorpe
Sunderland ran the rule over former Braintree striker Alfie Cerulli on Monday, with FlashScore reporting that the free agent turned out for the club's under-23 side during their victory over Norwich City.
Having previously been on the books of Braintree as recently as this year, Cerulli departed the Essex based club after notching up two goals in five National League games before joining up with Colchester United's youth set up.
It appears however that the League Two club didn't take up the option of signing Cerulli to a long-term deal, leading to the striker heading up to the North East with the Black Cats this week.
The big festive Sunderland quiz: Can you get 20/20?
How many times have Sunderland won the FA Cup?
At present it remains unclear as to whether the player has impressed enough to earn a deal at Sunderland, with the report suggesting he was subbed off during Monday's game.
This is a big opportunity for Cerulli to make the grade at Football League level with an academy that is famed for bringing through young players to first team level.
Having cut his teeth at non-league level with Braintree, this trial period could well be his biggest shot yet at making it at an elite level of the game.
Sunderland's youth system is great an unearthing gems and for that reason I don't think there are many better club's in the lower reaches of the Football League for a young player to continue their development.
Only time will tell as to whether he has done enough to earn a deal, but one things for sure, this young striker seemingly has something about him to be getting trials at such a prestigious club.

A Szárd Akció Párt (Szárdul: Partidu Sardu, olaszul: Partito Sardo d'Azione, rövidítése: PSdA) egy regionalista, szeparatista politikai párt Szardínián. Ez a párt annak ellenére hogy hagyományosan balközép irányultságú, manapság a jobbközép koalíció részeként az Északi Ligával van közeli viszonyban.
A PsdA a legrégebbi államnélküli nemzetet képviselő párt Európában, 1984 óta az európai kisebbségeket magába tömörítő Európai Szabad Szövetség európai pártnak a tagja.

Története

A kezdetek

A pártot 1921-ben alapították, de rövidesen a fasizmus hatalomra kerülése alatt betiltották. A pártot a második világháború után alapította újra Emillio Lussu a Cselekvés Párt Dél-Olaszországért felelős titkára, az alapításban emellett az antifasiszta Sassari Brigád számos veteránja és az Olasz Ellenállási Mozgalom szociáldemokratái is részt vettek. Lussu 1948-ban kilépett a pártból és megalapította a Szárd Szocialista Cselekvési Pártot (PSd'AzS) amely 1949-ben az Olasz Szocialista Párthoz csatlakozott. Innentől kezdve az 1980-as évekig a párt a kereszténydemokratákkal került szövetségbe.

Az első, 1949-es regionális választáson a párt 10,4%-ot ért el, a negyedik legerősebb helyi politikai erővé válva az eredménnyel. Az 1951-es választáson kiestek a helyi törvényhozásból, majd 1953-ban a szavazatok 7%-ával épphogy áttörték a bejutási küszöböt. 1958-ban már a kereszténydemokratákkal szövetségben került be a helyi törvényhozásba.

Centrumból a regionalizmusba

Az 1960-as években a párt tagja lett Antonio Simon Mossa, aki a szárd függetlenség, szeparatizmus ideológiai atyja. A párt az 1970-es évekre fokozatosan hagyta el a mérsékelt, kereszténydemokratákkal fémjelzet jobbközépet és egyre inkább szeparatista szellemiségűvé vált. A párt az 1984-es és 1989-es regionális választáson 14 és 12%-os eredményt ért el. Ekkoriban a párt tagjaként a szárdista Mario Melis lett Szardínia tartományi elnöke. Elnökségét öt párti koalíció támogatta: kommunisták, szocialisták, demokratikus szocialisták és a republikánusok.

A párt az 1996-os parlamenti választásokon a balközép koalíció, az Olajfa listáján indult. A párt a 2001-es választáson viszont elutasította az Olajfával való koalíciót. A párt a helyi választásokon hosszú ideig 3-4%-ot ért el. A 2006-os regionális választáson komoly fordulatot végrehajtva, a párt az Északi Ligával indult közös listán a "Paktum az Autonómiákért" szövetség részeként, a szövetség elbukott a regionális választáson.

Pártszakadás

A 2009-es regionális választáson a párt a jobbközép koalícióval kötött szövetséget, ami miatt a párt baloldali, szociáldemokrata szárnya kilépett a pártból és megalakították a Vörös Mórok (Rosso Mori). A Vörös Mórok a sziget szegényebb megyéiben: Nuoro és Carbonia-Iglesias megyékben ért el 7-7%-ot. A 2010-es szardíniai megyei választáson Nuoro megyében 12, Sassari megyében 6.9 százalékot értek el a Vörös Mórok.

2013-ban a Szárd Akció Párt felbontotta a koalíciót a jobbközéppel.

Koalíció a Ligával

A 2018-as választáson a párt koalíciós megállapodást kötött a Matteo Salvini vezette Északi Ligával,  a választásokon a párt 10.8%-ot ért el, a párt elnök Christian Solinast pedig szenátornak választották meg.

Q: An SMTP From address is required to send a message. Set the message smtp_envelope_from, return_path, sender, or from address In Spree 3.0 "Mail Method Settings" not available by default.
Rails version 4.2.0
Using "gem 'spree_mail_settings', github: 'spree-contrib/spree_mail_settings', branch: '3-0-stable'" in admin panel one link generate in Configuration menu "Mail Method settings".
All configuration done. But when Click on "Test Mail"  Button it gives error
"An SMTP From address is required to send a message. Set the message smtp_envelope_from, return_path, sender, or from address."

A: I think this answer is a total hack but this is how i got past this issue for my tests.  i had to hard code the 'from_address' in order_mailer.confirm_email method to what i would enter anyway in the admin section.  here is my code:
  def confirm_email(order, resend = false)
    @order = order.respond_to?(:id) ? order : Spree::Order.find(order)
    subject = (resend ? "[#{Spree.t(:resend).upcase}] " : '')
    subject += "#{Spree::Store.current.name} #{Spree.t('order_mailer.confirm_email.subject')} ##{@order.number}"
    mail(to: @order.email, from: 'yourfromaddress@yourdomain.com', subject: subject)

Project Veritas' James O'Keefe Blabs About His Next 'Sting' on Amtrak
YOUR OWN MEDICINE
Samuel Corum/Getty
Project Veritas got a taste of its own medicine when a Bloomberg reporter overheard founder James O'Keefe's openly discussing upcoming projects aboard a Thursday Amtrak train from Washington, D.C. to New York City. The right-wing activist organization made its name with surreptitious recordings of so-called whistleblowers but has just as often spread disinformation. O'Keefe reportedly made no attempt to keep his voice down while strategizing over the phone about upcoming projects, at one point revealing plans to FaceTime with an ABC producer he planned to "blow the whistle on."
"We need to roll up our sleeves. It has been a very quiet month for us," he said. He also expressed frustration with COVID-19 infections among his employees. "It seems like every time a new person gets Covid it shuts down the HQ. What is the guidance on that? We can't shut down the company for a month or two. We need to work on Georgia," he said. "I think the message is 'I understand but we have a right to fire people who won't come in.' We're an essential business." Though an Amtrak employee and another passenger asked O'Keefe to wear a mask, he refused to do so.

1 Pułk Pancerny (1 ppanc) – oddział broni pancernej Polskich Sił Zbrojnych.

12 sierpnia 1942 roku dotychczasowy 65 batalion czołgów został przeformowany w 1 pułk pancerny. Nawiązywał do 1 batalionu czołgów tworzonego w listopadzie, a zorganizowanego 2 grudnia 1939 roku w Campebec, w Bretanii.

Początkowo był jednostką  16 Brygady Pancernej, walczył jednak w składzie 10 Brygady Kawalerii Pancernej.

Swoje święto obchodził 19 sierpnia, w rocznicę bitwy w Normandii o wzgórze 262 (Maczugę).

Działania bojowe pułku
1 pułk pancerny przerzucony został do Francji 30 i 31 lipca 1944 roku na pokładach sześciu barek. Jeszcze w Wielkiej Brytanii, w czasie marszu do miejsca załadunku, spalił się czołg obrony przeciwlotniczej. Rzut gąsienicowy wylądował na wybrzeżu 30 lipca wieczorem, natomiast rzut kołowy następnego dnia około 7:00. Rejon koncentracji pułk osiągnął o 20:00. 2 sierpnia dowódca pułku zameldował do sztabu 10 Brygady Kawalerii Pancernej osiągnięcie całością pułku rejonu wyjściowego do działań. Stan pułku wynosił 43 oficerów i 624 szeregowych. Skoncentrowany w rejonie wyjściowym do natarcia pułk 7 sierpnia posiadał w szykach bojowych 53 czołgi Sherman, 3 czołgi ewakuacyjne Sherman ARV, 11 czołgów Stuart, 6 czołgów przeciwlotniczych Crusader, 9 samochodów opancerzonych Scout-Car i 7 transporterów opancerzonych Half-Truck.

Bitwa o Normandię

8 sierpnia 1944 roku 1 pułk pancerny wszedł w styczność bojową z obroną niemiecką około południa, osłaniając 10 BKPanc. na wysokości Tilly-la-Campagne, tracąc 2 czołgi Sherman i 1 samochód opancerzony Scout-Car na minach. 9 sierpnia zamienił w pierwszym rzucie brygady bratni 2 pułk pancerny. Prowadząc natarcie zajął Cauvicourt, następnie w walce o wzg. 94. w trakcie dalszego natarcia natknął się w miejscowości Soignolles na silną obronę przeciwpancerną. Z uwagi na powyższe 1 i 2 szwadronami oskrzydlił miejscowość od zachodu zdobywając wzg. 111 znajdujące się na wschodnich podejściach do wzg. 140. Ze względu na silną obronę wroga i liczną broń przeciwpancerną oraz brak własnej piechoty szwadrony po wzięciu jeńców wycofały się na wzg. 94. Pułk poniósł ciężkie straty - 14 poległych i 15 rannych, spłonął wraz z czołgiem zastępca dowódcy pułku mjr M. Malinowski oraz zniszczonych zostało 15 czołgów. Po osiągnięciu rejonu Rénémesnil przez pułk dołączyło do niego ok. 100 odbitych z niewoli i ukrywających się w okolicy żołnierzy kanadyjskich. Od 10 sierpnia pułk przebywał na wypoczynku i reorganizacji.

Bitwa pod Falaise

15 sierpnia maszerując na czele kolumny 10 BKPanc. współdziałając z 1 szwadronem 10 pułku dragonów osiągnął Hutmesnil, Soignolles, Rouvres. Zajął rejon Vendeuvre i  16 sierpnia poprzez bród przekroczył rzekę Dives. 17 sierpnia prowadził natarcie za grupą bojową "Zgorzelski", a następnie za grupą bojową "Koszutski". Prowadząc walki dotarł do wzg. 159 i 259 luzując na nich grupę bojową "Koszutski". Dnia 18 sierpnia pancerni 1 pułku wraz z częścią batalionu strzelców podhalańskich kontynuowali natarcie konwojując zaopatrzenie dla grupy bojowej 2 Pułku Pancernego w kierunku kompleksu wzgórz nazywanych "Maczugą" zdobył wzg. 258. W późnych godzinach popołudniowych został zaatakowany przez alianckie lotnictwo taktyczne, w wyniku ataku utracił prawie całe zaopatrzenie. Wieczorem wykonał natarcie zdobywając wzg. 240 na którym wziął do niewoli jeńców. Od dwóch dni 1 pułk pancerny był wspierany przez batalion strzelców podhalańskich. Następnego dnia w południe czołgi pułku uchwyciły północną część wzg. 262 i pułk przeszedł na nim do obrony wraz z bspodh. Nocą obronę pancerniaków i Podhalan wzmocnił 9 batalion strzelców. Rano 20 sierpnia rejon obrony na północnym wzg. 262 (Maczudze) objęła również grupa bojowa "Koszutski". Do 22 sierpnia pułk bronił zajętych pozycji przed ciągłymi natarciami niemieckich wojsk usiłującymi wydostać się z okrążenia, a także próbujących przyjść im z pomocą. Tego dnia pancerni 1 pułku zajęli obronę na południowej części wzg. 262, następnego dnia zostali wycofani na wypoczynek i uzupełnienie do miejscowości Grandmesnil. Straty poniesione od 8 do 26 sierpnia to 24 poległych, 52 rannych i 28 zaginionych.

Pościg i walki w Belgii

29 sierpnia pułk osiągnął stan 32 oficerów i 559 szeregowych oraz posiadał w linii sprawnych 43 czołgi Sherman, 6 Stuart i 6 plot. Crusader. Tego dnia 1 pułk pancerny wraz z 10 pułkiem dragonów, I dywizjonem samobieżnym 1 pappanc. i dywizjonem 1 pamot. rozpoczął jako grupa taktyczna mjr Zgorzelskiego marsz w charakterze oddziału przedniego dywizji, za uchodzącym nieprzyjacielem osiągając Valailles, nazajutrz Elbeuf. 31 sierpnia przekroczył Sekwanę, a 1 września wszedł w styczność bojową z przeciwnikiem. Dnia 2 września 1944 r. pułk stoczył walkę o przeprawy na Sommie w pobliżu miejscowości Goye, zdobywając ją w godzinach wieczornych . Następnie kontynuował pościg osiągając 6 września granicę francusko-belgijską, oraz w walkach oskrzydlił obronę niemiecką na południe od Ypres. Nazajutrz 1 pułk pancerny prowadził dalsze natarcie w kierunku miast Roulers i Thielt. 8 września dokonał dalekiego obejścia od wschodu obrony zorganizowanej w oparciu o te miasta, napotykając w uchwyconym Ruysselede maszerującą kolumnę wojsk nieprzyjacielskich, którą zniszczył. Wieczorem pancerniacy zostali wycofani na odpoczynek, konserwację i naprawę sprzętu do Poucques. Dotychczasowe działania pułku przyniosły dalsze straty, a stan oddziału wynosił na 12 września 29 oficerów i 475 szeregowych, stan czołgów, to; 42 Shermany, 5 Stuart i 4 Crusader.

Walki na pograniczu Belgii i w Holandii

W tym samym dniu 1 pancerny wykonał marsz do frontowy poprzez Gandawę i Lokeren, osiągając czołowym 3 szwadronem Beveren-Waas i rozpoznając kierunek na Stekene w dniu następnym. 14 września, 2 szwadron pułku wspólnie z batalionem strzelców podhalańskich zdobył w walce Stekene. Pułk pozostał w obronie rejonu zdobytego miasta, od 17 września przechodząc do wsi Sint-Gillis-Waas utrzymując linię frontu i patrolując przedpole. Częścią sił pułku w dniach 19 i 20 września pancerniacy wykonali marsz do Axel i Boschkapelle na terenie Holandii. Z uwagi na brak zorganizowanego oporu, pancerniacy powrócili w całości do poprzedniego rejonu w Sint-Gillis-Waas, na wypoczynek i reorganizację, w trakcie której likwidacji uległ pluton czołgów plot. Crusader. Stan czołgów wynosił 35 Sherman i 6 Stuart . Następnie od 28 września do 5 października 1944 roku 1 Pułk Pancerny uczestniczył w walkach o opanowanie Baarle-Nassau. Po chwilowym wypoczynku ponownie brał udział w ostatniej dekadzie października w walkach o Bredę, a na początku listopada w walkach w rejonie Made. Pod Bredą 29 października poległ zastępca dowódcy pułku mjr M. Bartosiński. Od 5 listopada 1944 r. pancerniacy wraz z innymi jednostkami dywizji dozorowali front na rzece Moza. Rotacyjnie pełniona służba patrolowa i dozorowa w obronie pod ogniem artylerii wroga, doprowadziła do odparcia wypadów zza rzeki. Ponadto rotacyjnie zmienianym pododdziałom pułku pozwoliła na wymianę czołgów na nowe, uzupełnienie stanów osobowych i szkolenie. W zależności od sytuacji pułk zmieniał też odcinki dozorowania i stacjonowania i tak: 6-17 listopada Moerdijk, 18 listopada - 19 grudnia 1944 Oosterhout, 20 grudnia 1944 - 5 stycznia 1945 r. Dongen, 6 stycznia - 18 lutego odpoczynek i od 19 lutego - 7 kwietnia Dongen .

Walki we wschodniej Holandii i w Niemczech

Wieczorem 7 kwietnia 1945 roku kolumna pułku dołączyła do ugrupowania marszowego 1 DPanc. następnego dnia przekraczając Ren. Maszerujący pułk w siłach głównych dywizji nie miał styczności z nieprzyjacielem, jego marszruta wiodła przez Almelo, Razel, Coevorden, Emmen, Ter Apel, Haren w Holandii i Melstrup w Niemczech osiągając 14 kwietnia broniony Küsten Kanal. Do 19 kwietnia pułk prowadził ostrzał pozycji wroga i prowadził działania demonstrujące. 19 kwietnia 1 Pułk Pancerny wzmocniony dwoma kompaniami strzelców podhalańskich prowadząc natarcie opanował miejscowość Lehe i dotarł do rzeki Dever, biorąc do niewoli 6 oficerów i 467 szeregowych z batalionu piechoty morskiej. 20 kwietnia pułk wraz z 3 i 4 kompaniami podhalan po ciężkiej walce opanował miasto Aschendorf, biorąc dalszych jeńców. Następnie po pościgu pancerniacy zdobyli miasteczka Nenndorf i Tunxdorf biorąc do niewoli kompanię niemiecką. 21 kwietnia poprzez zajęty przez inne oddziały most w Papenburgu pułk podjął dalsze natarcie wzdłuż rzeki Ems w kierunku Ihrhove i Ihren. Prowadzone natarcie z uwagi silną obronę, straty i zapadające ciemności zostało zatrzymane. Nieprzyjaciel pod osłoną nocy wycofał się, a szwadrony 2 i 3 zajęły nazajutrz przedmioty natarcia bez walki, podjęty pościg doprowadził do osiągnięcia linii rzeki Ledy. Na osiągniętej rubieży pułk pozostał w obronie do 29 kwietnia. 30 kwietnia pułk przeprawił się przez Ledę na zdobytym przyczółku kanadyjskiej 3 DP i 1 maja opanował w walce miejscowość Filsum . 2 maja pancerniacy prowadzili walki na wschód od Hesel we współdziałaniu z batalionem strzelców podhalańskich, rozbili broniące rejonu Detern, Stickhausen pododdziały 365 i 367 morskiego batalionu fortecznego. 1 pułk  ze wsparciem 1 szwadronu dragonów utorował sobie drogę do Halsbebek i pomimo strat zdobył miasto rozpoznając w kierunku Bredehorn oraz opanował 3 km za miastem skrzyżowanie dróg i torów kolejowych. 4 maja pułk kontynuował natarcie w kierunku północnym na Neuenburg. Prowadzone przez pułk natarcie natknęło się  jednak na zniszczenia dróg, wysadzone mosty i przepusty, pola minowe oraz ogień artylerii ciężkiej wroga. Przeszkody i miny musieli neutralizować i naprawić saperzy. Natarcie dotarło do wsi Astederfeld leżącej 3 km od Neuenburga.  Dalsze natarcie zostało wieczorem 4 maja zatrzymane. 5 maja 1945 r. o godz. 8.00 nastąpiło zawieszenie broni i koniec działań bojowych 1 Pułku Pancernego .

Pancerniacy po wojnie
5 maja pułk zajął miasto Cleverns i rozpoczął rozbrajanie wojsk niemieckich i okupację terenu. Zadaniem jego było oczyszczanie terenu z niedobitków, rozbrajanie osób i terenu z broni i amunicji, wyłapywanie przebranych żołnierzy i funkcjonariuszy hitlerowskich, egzekwowanie zarządzeń i warunków kapitulacji w tym ustalonej godziny policyjnej.

Q: About the meaning of glInvalidateFramebuffer I have a question about the general use of glInvalidateFramebuffer:
As far as I know, the purpose of glInvalidateFramebuffer is to "skip the store of framebuffer contents that are no longer needed". Its main purpose on tile based gpus is to get rid of depth and stencil contents if only color is needed after rendering. I do not understand why this is necessary. As far as I know if I render to an FBO then all of this data is stored in that FBO. Now if I do something with only the color contents or nothing with that FBO in a subsequent draw, why is the depth/stencil data accessed at all? It is supposedly stored somewhere and that eats bandwidth, but as far as I can tell it is already in FBOs GPU memory as the result of the render so when does that supposed expensive additional store operation happen?
There are supposedly expensive preservaton steps for FBO attachments but why are those necessary if the data is already in Gpu memory as result of the render?
Regards

A: Framebuffers in a tile-based GPU exist in two places - the version stored in main memory (which is persistent), and the working copy inside the GPU tile buffer (which only exists for the duration of that tile's fragment shading). The content of the tile buffer is written back to the buffer in main memory at the end of shading for each tile.
The objective of tile-based shading is to keep as much of the state inside that tile buffer, and avoid writing it back to main memory if it's not needed. This is important because main memory DRAM accesses are phenomenally power hungry. Invalidation at the end of each render pass tells the graphics stack that those buffers don't need to be persisted, so means the write back from tile buffer to main memory can be avoided.
I've written a longer article on it here if you want more detail:
https://developer.arm.com/solutions/graphics/developer-guides/understanding-render-passes/single-view
For non-tile-based GPUs the main use case seems to be using it as a lower cost version of a clear at the start of a render pass if you don't actually care about the starting color. It's likely there is little benefit to using it at the end of the render pass (but it should not hurt either).

Rob Roy in Glasgow
Scottish Section 'General News and Notes' report.
The first exhibition to the public of the Gaumont film, Rob Roy, at the Salon, Glasgow, on Monday morning, was attended by extraordinary scenes both inside and outside the theatre. A body of officers and men of the Royal Scots Fusiliers, in the command of Colonel Osborne, marched down from Maryhill Barracks with their band, and over 250 wounded from the military hospitals at Erskine, Bellahouston and Ralston, were brought down to the theatre in convoys of ambulances. To facilitate the movement of the convoys, special police were on duty, and, just before the show, Sauchiehall Street was absolutely blocked and all traffic held up.
Many distinguished people attended the show, and R.C. Bromhead, Esq., Joint Managing Director of the Gaumont Company Limited, David Hawthorne and Mr W.P. Kellino, traveled from London to be present. Hawthorne, the 'Rob Roy' of the film, will make personal appearances at the Salon throughout the week. '
Second run on Rob Roy has been secured by La Scala, and the bookings on the film all over Scotland have been enormous - a compliment to the producers and to the Scottish national drama.

Asturias (Leyenda) — композиція іспанського композитора та піаніста Ісаака Альбеніса, вперше опублікована в Барселоні в 1892 році.

Фрагмент триває близько шести хвилин і спочатку був написаний для фортепіано у ключі G мінор. Вирізняється тонкою, заплутаною мелодією середньої секції та різкими динамічними змінами.

Біограф Альбеніса, Вальтер Арон Кларк, описує твір як «чистий андалузький фламенко». У головній темі фортепіано імітує гітарну техніку чергування великого пальця та пальців правої руки.

Виконується відомими гітаристами на класичній та акустичній гітарах.

The objective of the proposed project is to address the considerable uncertainty regarding the degree to which PEVs can provide grid services and mutually benefit the electric utilities, PEV owners, and auto manufacturers. How can the potential benefits be unlocked without negative unintended consequences? This project will answer this question by leveraging capabilities of multiple national laboratories with vehicle/grid integration (VGI) to perform hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) studies that integrate communication and control system hardware with simulation and analysis activities.

Florida Education Commissioner Richard Corcoran announces his resignation
WUSF Public Media - WUSF 89.7 | By Carl Lisciandrello

Florida Commissioner of Education Commissioner Richard Corcoran announced he is stepping down at the end of April.
Florida Commissioner of Education Richard Corcoran announced Thursday he is stepping down at the end of April.
In a press release, Corcoran — who turns 57 on March 16 — said he is resigning to return to private life and spend more time with his wife Anne and their six children.
Corcoran was appointed by Gov. Ron DeSantis in December 2018. Prior to that, he served in the Florida House of Representatives representing Pasco County, and was House Speaker from 2016-18.
"Richard has been a champion for students and families, and a great leader of the Department of Education," DeSantis said in the release. "He is driven by his principles and has never shied away from making the difficult decisions needed to improve the quality of education in Florida.
"During his tenure, both in the House and at the Department, our state has become an education juggernaut and national leader for innovation. We wish him well and thank him for his service."
In his three years as education commissioner, Corcoran helped oversee several education reforms, including expanded school choice and eliminating Common Core.
Corcoran was also behind an effort to penalize school districts that defied the state's orders against masks mandates in schools.
During the 2022 legislative session, lawmakers also passed measures that forbid instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity in kindergarten through third grade, as well as replacing the Florida Standards Assessments with a three-times-a-year "progress monitoring system."
They are also considering legislation that would prohibit critical race theory from being taught in schools, and used in employee training.
Corcoran praised DeSantis, calling him "the right leader at the right time."
"Like the rest of the nation, Florida's school districts have had to weather some of the greatest difficulties they have ever experienced over the past two years, and I couldn't think of a better governor to serve," Corcoran said in the release.
Last year, Corcoran interviewed to become president at Florida State University, but did not make the final cut.

Thermoforming is a manufacturing process where a plastic sheet is heated to a pliable forming temperature, formed to a specific shape in a mold, and trimmed to create a usable product. The sheet, or "film" when referring to thinner gauges and certain material types, is heated in an oven to a high-enough temperature that it can be stretched into or onto a mold and cooled to a finished shape.
METHOD houses four shuttle and rotary thermoforming machines that take sheets up to 104" x 121". Our thermoformers enable us to complete various forming processes efficiently, at either low or high volumes. This includes; vacuum, vacuum snapback, free, pressure, plug assist, twin sheet, matched die and billow.
ABS, PS, PVC, PC, PET, PETG, PMMA, PE, HDPE, UHMWPE, PP, TPO, TPU and EVA.
Common brands are Royalite, Boltaron, Kydex and Sintra. Other considerations are virgin or reground (utility), fire rating, food grade certification and UV resistance level.

Prices are based on doing the casts at our casting studio in Dublin,CA ( intersection of 580 and 680 and near West Dublin Bart ). I can pick you up at Bart if it's helpful.
I can sometimes go to your Bay Area home for a travel fee of at least $300 if you are unable to come to the studio.
I am also willing to travel outside of the Bay Area (even as far as LA ) at an extra cost, contact me with your needs.
I can also cast feet, butts, breasts, and almost anything else.
Short beards, under arm hair, and pubic hair are also ok to cast with a little special preparation. Piercings and other Body Art can make interesting casts, I'm open to any challenge.
I have experience with post-mortem casting, contact me for prices and availability.
Unfinished ( raw plaster ) is often the best choice, but sometimes a very thin wash of paint crates a more even color.
For a small extra charge metal paints and patinas are available.
Body Casting gift cards are available in any amount.
Gift cards can be purchased any day/any time at my online store.


It's been a busy week and a half. Rebuilt a section of rotten deck. These are always a bit art and a bit craft. You have to find some way to tie into the remaining deck, which usually should have been torn down too. Inevitably though the homeowner can't afford to, or doesn't want to, or it's lipstick for a sale and you have to work with what you are left with. You also have to find some way to make sure the new part is not glaringly better than the old part, or it highlights all sorts of sins.
This deck was originally built with a lot or randomness. Joist spans from 46″ to 30″. Decking nailed to 2×4's on the flat side. Scary really.

12000 advertisers from 88 countries are waiting to approve your blog.
Even though Pay Per Impression ad networks have been in place for as long as I have been in Internet since 1998, I was taken aback when a well known blogger that I happened to meet recently in Bangalore stared at me when I asked him did he consider joining a couple of them because of almost no income off Google AdSense.
I then asked him if he has heard of CPM ad network and he affirmed. I told him CPM (cost per thousand) is also known as cost per impression or pay per impression. CPM ad networks are web advertisements that you place into your blog that deliver targeted ads to your blog's audience.
Yes, it looks like a PPC (pay per click) type of monetization but certainly it differs. CPM pays you money for every thousand impression of your blog page in which you have placed the given ads.
No clicks on the ads are necessary for you to earn.
Blogs of multi niche with more than 10k traffic a month or more stand to gain a decent sum every month.

František Podešva (2. července 1893 v Sokolnicích u Brna – 28. října 1979 ve Valašském Meziříčí) byl český akademický malíř, grafik, ilustrátor, hudební pedagog a redaktor, též autor memoárů.

Životopis

Dětství a mládí prožil v Brně, v chudé rodině valašského formana a pradleny. Vyučil se houslařem u Josefa Lídla (později firma Václav Lídl) na Zelném trhu v Brně. Studoval v letech 1912–1915 na pražské Akademii výtvarných umění (AVU), kde se stal žákem u profesorů Vlaho Bukovce, v malířské speciálce Jana Preislera, a na grafice u Augusta Brömseho. Během 1. světové války byl povolán v roce 1915 do vojenské služby v Budapešti a Albánii. Po válce studia dokončil v roku 1921 absolvováním grafické speciálky na AVU.

V roku 1920 vytvořil svá první monumentální díla - sgrafito na škole v Rožnově pod Radhoštěm a fresku v kostele na Hutisku; vítězný oblouk a strop kněžiště. Jako státní stipendista pobýval v roce 1925 v Paříži u profesora Františka Kupky. Roku 1926 se oženil s Marií Jaruškovou, se kterou vychovali dvě dcery.

Podnikl řadu studijních cest do zahraničí zejména ve 20. a 30. letech (Itálie, Francie, Německo, Španělsko aj.) Inicioval založení prvního výtvarného spolku Klub výtvarných umělců Aleš (KVU) v Brně, byl ředitelem vlastní malířské školy, členem skupiny Bezruč a Moravsko-slezského sdružení výtvarných umělců. Už od dob studií intenzivně vystavoval na souborných a spolkových výstavách a svou tvorbu představil v období mezi válkami i na samostatných výstavách v zahraničí – v Poznani a několikrát v Paříži v "Salon des Tuileries". V roce 1925 se přestěhoval z Brna do Prahy, kde byl až 1942 redaktorem časopisů Salon a Srdce Evropy.

V roce 1938 se přestěhoval s rodinou na Valašsko, a žil v ateliéru na "vrchu umělců" Soláni, kde se scházeli s dalšími malíři, spisovateli nebo hudebními skladateli. Působil též jako hudební pedagog v Baťově škole umění ve Zlíně a Uherském Hradišti. V počátcích tvorby se věnoval zejména tvorbě figurální, později ho zaujala krajinomalba. V jeho dílech se odráží láska k Valašsku, jeho lidem a přírodě.

František Podešva zemřel v roce 1979 ve věku 86 let ve Valašském Meziříčí. Pohřben je na Valašském Slavíně v Rožnově pod Radhoštěm. Jeho manželkou byla spisovatelka Marie Podešvová a dcerou americká fotografka Eva Fuková.

The ruach-hakodesh tag has no usage guidance.
It's said that many of the Kevarim in Tzfas were unknown until the Ari used Ruach Hakodesh to identify them. Has anybody else before or since been able to do this or was he the first & only?
Is it correct to trust one's intuition?
What is the difference between Ruach haKodesh and Shekinah? Is there a difference between the two concepts or are they exactly the same?


The project in Campbell required the works, a facelift to modernise the home, an upper floor and front extension to create extra space for their growing family, a full home renovation and remodel to improve the flow and function of the existing home and a new double garage addition.
Our client's consulted Build Professional after having plans drawn up from another company for a new garage that once priced was designed to be far too costly. With our understanding of construction, the design team improved the new garage design to make it far more cost effective without compromising on aesthetics or functionality.
Once the garage design was rectified to align with the client's budget, Build Professional progressed to design an upper floor and front extension together with renovating and remodelling the existing floor plan that would greatly improve the functionality and change and modernise the façade of the home. By removing the old 'bull nose' verandah and disguising the low pitch roof to the height of the second floor addition, the horizontal façade split the heights, creating rectilinear details both vertically and horizontally. A clever array of steel detailing created the horizontal awning to the front of the home as a minimalistic feature. The design was well thought out taking great consideration of the northern aspect and stunning views of Mt Ainslie creating a warm, light filled and solar passive home.
Our client's lived through the complete extension and renovation process. Build Professional developed a two stage plan to enable the family to live as comfortably as possible throughout the construction phase. Stage one consisted of the construction of the new garage, ensuite renovation and remodelling of the back of the existing home. This enabled the family to use the new garage for storage and for the family to live in the back of the existing home whilst stage two entailed the complete removal of the existing roof and the construction of the upper floor extension and front entry addition.
There was a significant amount of work to coordinate and being located in a cul-de-sac and next door to a dual occupancy meant that access and space was tight including the thought to provide safe access around the construction zone for the family of five that were living through this.
Firstly, we walked around with our clients to zone off the front garden and important plants from construction traffic. Materials had a location as too did the waste bins. The carport was free for access and for our clients to use of an evening.
Careful attention to detailing the steel floor beams into the existing structure enabled a speedy delivery to close off the untouched wet areas below from any weather issues. We were able to keep the upper floor off the fireplace chimney to enable the possibility of a triple skin flue but offset components to use the integrity of the brickwork to load the upper floor and halve the span of the beam. This contained the steel within our parameters and design. Continuing to the rear, we detailed a steel beam to allow services from the wet areas to continue and to support the new floor areas above while maintaining existing ceilings – this eventuated into no works to the existing laundry and bathroom.
Redefining the heating and cooling needs of the upper floor we were able to incorporate air conditioning into the roof structure and duct voids designed to enable vents to the required locations.
From an Architectural perspective and our Design and Build process, the front of the home took a change from the 70's to the modern era. By using vertical and horizontal elements, we gave the home a striking presence to the street. Once again, clever steel detailing enabled our design to use fine horizontal lines across the home positioned to break up the height and vertical elements of the cladding. These elements set and detailed around the use of existing brick pillars to the front porch rather than just demolishing. Including shade awnings to the windows most exposed to the summer sun gave the horizontal elements within the vertical lines of the cladding. The deciduous trees to the front of the home give great shading to the home in summer from the western afternoon sun.
The final result is amazing and a complete transformation of the home. The home extension and renovation has changed our client's lifestyle immensely. The façade of the home is striking, modern and now has great architectural interest. The flow and function of the interior has been rectified and now works harmoniously for this busy family offering much greater open plan living space in the kitchen, dining and living and offering a separate entrance. The addition of the new bedrooms, bathroom & rumpus otherwise known as the 'teenager's wing' in the upper floor extension has created a separate living and sleeping zone that has future proofed the family's home.


We live in a world where time really does matter and people want to make sure that they get the right information at the right time. People today carry their cell phones and tablets because they always want to get the right information at the right time. This certainly helps them to stay ahead of the competition because there is so much competition in the market that any delay can take you out of the competition. Hence, people always make sure that they have the right gadgets and tools to ensure that they have their information on time.

When it comes to pass on the information nothing works better than notification boards. The concept of notice boards is not new but it certainly still works in the modern world. Hence, you can see that many hospitals and offices still have their own notification boards where they post the information for everybody to read and stay informed. Hence, notification boards have always remained a part of our lives from the very childhood. You might have never realized it but notification boards have been a part of our life from the early school days where we used to check our school activities and team camping notices on the notice boards. The same thing happens when we go through our college days where we can check out our scores posted on notification boards. When we are in the corporate world we still see the company updates on the notification boards and therefore notice boards always play minor but important role in our life.
However, things have changed rapidly in the 21st century and therefore notice boards have changed too. Today, notification boards are not as simple as they used to be two decades ago. Well, with the advent of technology there are many places now where you can find digital notice boards replacing conventional boards because people don't have enough time to go ahead and remove the earlier notices and paste the new ones. Hence, digital boards are more preferable these days as it can save a lot of time and money for your organization.
One of the most important things about digital boards is that you don't have to keep changing the information regularly manually. Of course, boards are meant for keeping people informed about the latest updates, but for that you need to keep posting the latest documents and papers on the board which can be a lot of inconvenience. Hence, with digital boards there is no need for anybody to go to the notice board and change the information because the information can be changed instantly through the computer and it would only take couple of seconds to type in the latest information and update it. Hence, it really saves a lot of time for the people because the updates usually take just few seconds.
On the other side, you can quickly spread the information to multiple boards at the same time. Imagine if your medical center has multiple notice boards on various floors then it would take a lot of time for the person to go from one floor to another to keep changing the information. However, with the help of digital notice boards things will go really faster because all of the digital notice boards will be connected to one central computer and the information feed into that computer will instantly change the information on all notice boards instantly. This means that all the notice boards now have the updated information in just few seconds rather than spending minutes on it.
Getting the information on time is really important and you can achieve that with the help of digital boards that are getting more popular these days. This means that you can actually benefit since you will post the information on the notice board quickly than you did earlier. We all know that time is money and that we really value the time that we have in hand. With the help of digital boards you don't need to worry about the time because the moment the information is updated people will keep check of it. For instance, if you have some announcement about bad weather in few minutes you don't need to go calling everybody because if you have multiple digital notice boards you can quickly type in the information and everybody knows it in a matter of seconds. Hence, you can always stay ahead of the competition when you have the right information on your hand and you provide it to your team. The same thing can be said for those who work in corporate offices because you can definitely update the latest information on the notice board and inform your staff about how they are working and what their next plan of action should be.
Did you ever notice why you never really pay attention to all notice boards? Normally notice boards are made up of wood with glass and the only thing that attracts you is the color of papers pinned inside. Now with the help of digital boards you can not only make your content look important but make it look good too. You can provide the most critical information in red font color as well as others in blue, green or whichever color you prefer. Hence, you make the notice board look more colorful than before which actually attracts the attention of the readers. Since the notice boards have extra space you can definitely decide on how your content should look on the board. Hence, there are many ways to customize the content and make it look interesting rather than reading the new content in same old fashioned way. You can even make it more interesting by adding a clock and some extra information like weather updates and stock market information. You can add some tip of the day or quote for the day at the below for your readers. Hence, digital notice boards are definitely a step ahead of the old conventional boards.

Q: Need help with PHP functions apologies for the noob post. I'm fairly new to working with wordpress and I want to do my own php functions - here I just want to show the logged in user's firstname on the page. Below is what I added to my theme's functions.php:
add_shortcode('show_name', 'generate_content');
function show_name() {
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
$first_name = $current_user->user_firstname;
return $first_name;
}

and then I added this to the html editor of the page I want yet it doesn't display anything:
Hi <?php echo do_shortcode("[show_name]"); ?>,

I guess my main questions would be if I wrote the function correctly and/or where should I place the shortcode call. I hope someone could help as I plan to do some more advanced functions (such as updating database values by clicking a button).

A: add_shortcode('show_name', 'generate_content');

When WordPress finds a [show_name] shortcode tag in content, it runs the function that matches the second parameter, which in this case is generate_content. Try renaming your show_name() function to be the same, like this:
add_shortcode('show_name', 'my_show_name_func');
function my_show_name_func() {
    $current_user = wp_get_current_user();
    $first_name = $current_user->user_firstname;
    return $first_name;
}

Everything else looks like it will work though I didn't test this. For more information on adding a shortcode see the WordPress documentation here:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_shortcode
Also, since you are using it within a php block in a template, you can simply use the php function by calling it directly. For the above example doing this in your template would also work:
... Hi <?php echo my_show_name_func(); ?> ...

Will have the same effect.
Since php functions can be accessed like this, it's best to 'name space' your functions so they - being uniquely named - don't conflict with another function one that uses the same name in another theme or plugin.
Happy coding!


I'm sharing something, here on Life with Lynnie (LwL), because yesterday was a special day.
It was John Wayne's birthday! Well, not really, since he's no longer here on earth. But, if he were alive, then May 26th would have been his birthday.
Why does this seem important?
Well, being the date of what would have been John Wayne's birthday, many movies were shown that day, on television (TV) stations I watch on a normal basis. Of course, before that day I had also seen some movies starring John Wayne.
* The Shootist, starring John Wayne, Lauren Bacall and many other actors. Would you like to check out this American western film? If so, click on this link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Shootist. Knowing that much shooting was done, didn't seem good to me, but the movie was interesting.
* True Grit, starring John Wayne, Kim Darby and many other actors. Click on this link, if you'd like to check out this American western film: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/True_Grit_(1969_film). I must admit that even though this movie isn't perfect, I truly enjoyed it.
* El Dorado, starring John Wayne, James Caan and many other actors. If you'd like to check out this American western film, click here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/El_Dorado_(1966_film). Even though there was hatred in the movie, I liked the fact there was love.
* Flame of Barbary Coast, starring John Wayne, Ann Dvorak and other actors. Click here, if you want to check out this American western film: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flame_of_Barbary_Coast. Even though things didn't always go well, it seemed to end well.
* Westward Ho, starring John Wayne and Sheila Bromley. Want to check out this American western film? Click here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westward_Ho_(1935_film). Although the reason for the hatred was serious, I still enjoyed watching the movie.
Is it amazing to you that each of these movies starred John Wayne? I doubt if you were shocked.
It may seem amazing that each of these films were American western films. However, John Wayne starred in many, many, many American western films.
None of these movies were Christian films, so it's probably not surprising that there was much vengeance in them.
After all, vengeance is something people sometimes feel. Especially if they don't rely on God, and realize that vengeance is His... and not anyone else's.
Just as we read, in Romans 12:19, "Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord."
Amen! we need to not avenge ourselves, even if we are being hurt by other people. For vengeance isn't ours. It is His... just as today's Bible verse tells us. And, He will repay.
This is truly so important for us to know... and to accept.
He's with us always. As long as we belong to him.
Hopefully, so. For if you belong to Him, He will repay and you won't have to avenge anyone who hurts you.
To me, this is truly a blessing.
