He is pictured at left with his wife in front of an early concrete mixer. He was an active member of the Willamette Grange Hall with a small county park in that area named for him.
Judge Emil Emery Larkin (1957 – 1969)
Larkin was born between 1886 and 1896, as he was required to register for the draft in 1917 for World War I (all males aged 21 to 31 were required to register). At the time of his registration he lived in the Bellfountain area. Larkin served as the County Assessor for 13 years before being elected as County Judge.

August Leroy Strand (1964 – 1969)
Strand was born in Victoria, Texas, in 1894, but moved to Montana soon after the turn of the century. He earned a B.S. in Entomology from Montana State College in 1917 and an M.S. and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Minnesota. Strand served as a seaplane pilot during WWI and returned to Montana State College in 1931 as the Head of the Entomology Department. Six years later he was appointed President of the college.
A.L. Strand was appointed President of Oregon State College in the fall of 1942 and led the College through World War II and the post- war period's extensive growth. When he arrived at Oregon State College student and faculty ranks were dropping, but enrollment swelled to 8,000 students and 25 major buildings were added to the campus during Strand's 19-year presidency. The crowning moment of Strand's presidency came on March 6, 1961 when Oregon State College was officially renamed Oregon State University.
Strand remained in Corvallis after his retirement in 1961 and later served a 4-year term on the Benton County Commission. He lived in Corvallis until his death in 1980.

Burr Island – TicketWeb Canada
Burr Island
GBP10.00
BURR ISLAND: Once upon a time, there was a brooding, beardless man named Tom and a brooding, not-so-beardless man named Oscar. Tom was raised in a land called Frome. Frome was known for its infinite pottery shops, cheese festivals and Glastonbury-going flower-children of the past. Oscar lived his early years deep in the south west of Hobbit country in a little village called Aveton Gifford where mythical creatures spent their days trading limericks and fiddlesticks.
Years later, Tom and Oscars' strange cobbled paths met in a distant kingdom called Guildford. Unable to speak each other's mother tongue, they both sang the first note that came to their heads... at the same time.
It is said that, in that moment, they produced a harmony that was so rich and unified that even the earth itself had not heard such a sound.
Suddenly, the elements reacted, lifting the boys up off their feet. The sky engulfed them and the wind and rain raced past, hurling their twisting bodies. Still, they sang!
At last, the clouds broke and their breath grew tired. Slowly, Tom and Oscar wafted down like seeds from a maple tree towards what appeared to be... a bed of sand.
They had landed on what would later be known as...
Burr Island.

"At that time I was a member of a mission sent to investigate the loss of a Domain base located in the Himalaya Mountains. An entire battalion of officers, pilots, communications and administrative personnel disappeared and the base destroyed.
The asteroid belt is composed of thousands of broken up pieces of a planet that once existed between Mars and Jupiter. It serves as a good low-gravity jumping off point for incoming space craft traveling toward the center of our galaxy.
She requested that this officer consult information stored in the "files" of The Domain, concerning the history of Earth. She asked the communications officer to "feed" this information to Airl.

Former D-1 Football Player, U.S. Senator Cory Booker Passionately Challenges The NCAA's Exploitation of Collegiate Athletes
Congressional scrutiny of the NCAA's handling of athletics is growing, with members of Congress asking pointed questions of top officials over the treatment and benefits offered to student-athletes. As bills emerge to force colleges and universities to make good on scholarships that cover four years of education — and as legal challenges seek financial rewards and union rights for athletes — NCAA officials should stand warned that lawmakers like former D-1 football player, Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) are pressing for action to address the vast inequities that have exploited thousands of NCAA so-called student-athletes. A great example, of such oppressive rules that hurt their athletes is the NCAA's insistence that college athletes not profit from their individual popularity.
1. While players can't make one cent for advertising and marketing themselves, the colleges and the NCAA are free to utilize the student-athletes' names and likenesses to endorse any product or company and then to reap the resulting financial benefits.
6. The four-year scholarship that every high school football player dreams about receiving is actually a one (1)-year financial aid package at most schools and the one-year scholarship is renewable at the institution's sole discretion and that can be revoked for lack of on-field production alone.
This is why during today's hearing former Stanford University receiver Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) passionately demanded that the NCAA's exploitation of athletes must end now! Click here to watch Sen.

My name is Joseph (Jody) Howard and I am a native of Asheville NC where I attended TC Roberson High School and the University of North Carolina, Asheville. After graduation in May of 2003 I attended the University of the South, School of Theology where I graduated in May of 2006. I am married to the wonderful Anna Aven Howard, and I am a priest in the Diocese of Tennessee. I have served as a curate at Trinity Church, Winchester TN (July 1, 2006- June 31, 2007) and as Vicar of St. Francis Church in Goodlettsville TN (July 2007- December 2009). Beginning in January 2010 I served as priest-in-charge, and then rector (2012) of St. Joseph of Arimathea Episcopal Church in Hendersonville TN.
In addition to serving St. Joseph of Arimathea, I am the former Ecumenical Officer of the Diocese of Tennessee, have served on the Bishop and Council, am a member of the Christ Church Cathedral Chapter, serve on the Evangelism & Congregational Development Commission, and as one of the three Examining Chaplains of the diocese.
This web page is a place where I share my thoughts on all sorts of issues and topics (on my blog) including history, theology, Christianity, traditional conservatism, as well as Southern and Appalachian culture. In addition, I have resources and writings on various pages that delve deeper into these topics.


On December 7th & 8th, 2018 I took my daughter to Rachel, NV, and to visit the area around Groom Lake/Area 51 and to allow her to "Sky Watch" with new Video Equipment I had purchased for her. On the night of December 8th 2018, while parked adjacent to NV 375 (The Exterresterial Highway) observing Area 51 to the South, at approximately 9:50PM, we witnessed and VIDEO Recorded 2 Incidents of approximately 15 minutes in length, of Orbs, orangish in color, that had 3 lights cemeterial in line, these were NOT Flares, they appeared 4 times, and moved in ways conventual fixed wing air craft or helicopters are unable to. They then "disappeared" midair and reappeared over a 15-minute time frame, the last time on the North side of NV375 (NOT over any Nellis Range Territory) and again disappeared midair. We were unable to capture this via video as we were in our vehicle on route back to our RV. It should be noted that I was monitoring Radio Frequencies via Scanner and there was NO correlating Radio chatter with the appearance of the Orbs NOR was there associated "jet engine noise". While we were filming, we did observe Air Force Jets and heard them at high altitudes, perhaps engaged in high altitude surveillance, BUT there was NO associated "Jet Noise" with the appearance of the Orbs, which appeared much lower than the high-altitude Air Force jets we heard while "sky watching"

Forge Ahead
Summary: Atreus asks to see Stavrian about a matter, which turns into more matters. And some mutual respect.
Related Logs: Related Logs (Say None if there aren't any; don't leave blank)
Chief's Office - Hangar Deck - Battlestar Cerberus
Post Holocaust Day: #18
The room is fairly small, to maximize the area of the deck itself. It contains a smallish metal desk with locking drawers, a computer terminal, a file cabinet against one wall and metal shelves filled with tools, spare parts, and manuals. There are two chairs facing the desk, clearly scavenged from somewhere else. One area of the shelving, nearest the desk, has been cleared and is clean. This holds a coffee maker that constantly seems to have some brew or other in it. Above the chair behind the desk, in a position of prominence, a framed picture has been hung. It is an embroidered image depicting Hephaestus with his two metal helpers. The work is beautiful and almost lovingly detailed. The god is laughing, one eye bright where a patch covers the other. He is held aloft by his helpers, one done in glittering gold, the other in silver.
Condition Level: 3 - All Clear
Note: We lost the first five poses of this scene, so these poses start in media res. Atreus called Stavrian to his office and asked him to go with Deck next time there's a salvage. Stavrian recommended Atreus look into bringing a Marine as well, considering past incidents.
At last the tea is vertical, so Atreus takes the bag out, squeezing it to get the last of the tea out. He wraps the little string about the bag and tosses the lot into the trash. Lifting the mug, he takes a slow sip and sighs, "So. Is there anything we can do to help you? I know that things have been a mess today. Everywhere."
"Pray to the gods to keep your people safe," Stavrian replies, not glib in the least. His arms rest on the edge of Atreus' desk and his hands wrap around his tea cup, letting it warm his palms. "Other than that, I appreciate it but I don't think so. Not directly." He tilts his head. "I did want to ask you though…how are your people doing with the civilians in starboard? I see the place on rounds, but my head's down in medical worries."
Atreus lowers his head briefly, his smile warm. "Constantly. For all of us, really." He turns the mug twice in his hands, interest clear in his eyes. "Hmm. Good question. For the most part, they do not bother us. I think that they are still a bit shell shocked. We sort of circulate through when we can. Just to see if they need anything and to let them know that we are all still here, still aware of them. I think they are more bothered by us, to tell the truth. The most consistent thing we hear is pleas to 'keep the noise level down'. I can't really blame them, though. Especially lately."
Stavrian nods slowly. "I wish we could soundproof it for them, somehow. If just making the marines walk around with pillows strapped to their boots. Not being able to get enough rest is one of the worst things a man can endure at a time like this." He lifts his tea and blows on it, gently. "Listen, Chief…" His soft voice starts again, after a moment. "Could I ask you a little bit of a favor?"
Atreus chuckles just a little, "Yeah, that would be better. Or go barefoot. But, I can't really see either happening." He lifts his mug, eyes still slightly crinkled at the edges, amusement evident. The mug pauses just before he takes a sip, eyes focusing on you over the rim of the mug. Without taking a sip, he lowers it and nods, "Sure. What's on your mind, Lieutenant?"
"There's a civilian. Daniel Petroski. He's…was…part of QUODEL." Stavrian sips from his tea and sets it down again, keeping his fingers wrapped around the cup. His blue eyes focus on the older man's face, the Sagittarian's chin tilted down very slightly. It's a subtle measure of respect, around the constraints of their ranks. "He's been concerned for the people in that bay. I've been teaching him about shelters and crisis needs, and he'll be a good liaison if he can ever learn how to deal with command right. He's a good man. I'd like to introduce you, with your permission. He wants to help, he just needs…guidance."
If Atreus was surprised by the opening statement, it only grows as the Lieutenant continues speaking. Lifting a hand, he sort of lightly scratches the opposite cheek, then hmms softly. Lifting the mug, he finally takes the sip that has been pending for a while. When he lowers the mug, the Chief is nodding just a bit, "I'd love to meet him, Lieutenant though I'm not sure what I can do to help." His smile quirks just a bit, "Other than be an opinionated cuss who enjoys nattering on about what needs to be done. But, if I can help, I'm glad to."
"He's curious," Stavrian shrugs one shoulder. "He doesn't know what goes on up there, nobody down there does. But it's going to have to be a more open channel eventually, and I want someone prepared to step up and handle it. So does he; he's just a little naive right now. An opinionated cuss he can natter with would help a lot. Show him we can be honest people, and that we're not on opposite sides of the fence when it comes to how to treat human beings."
Atreus says, "Curious in what way? Questioning or peculiar?" Though he asks the question, there is a measure of amusement in his tone, "I can deal with either… Or both, for that matter." As you continue, he leans back in his chair and crosses one ankle up onto the opposite knee. "You are both right. If we are going to survive together we need to learn to communicate." His gaze slips away for a moment, then returns, "It is a dangerous time to be naive." Then, a faint blush touches the man's cheeks and he inclines his head a bit, "Thanks, Lieutenant. I'll try not to disappoint. Though if he's talking to you, I'd say he's got a good role model.""
"Oh. Questioning. I meant." Stavrian actually looks slightly embarrassed as he realizes his own phrasing. The JG has a heavy accent, not just colonial but shreds of some kind of dialect that might be more natural to him than Standard is. He sips his tea and, in a moment of pensive thought, keeps his mouth at the rim and blows little bubbles into the hot liquid. Then, awkwardly: "Thank you. But. You know, village to raise a child and everything. Anyway, I will see when I can find the two of you. Just off-duty, you know."
Atreus chuckles, though it is low, "I'm a geek, Lieutenant. A mechanic. We're thought of as peculiar on every colony. Or… Were." The light fades, then the thought is pushed aside. Tilting his head a bit, he nods, "Yeah. I know. I'll look forward to it, Lieutenant. Call whenever's convenient for you both. The nice thing about being Chief is that I can go whenever I like." Course the downside is that off-duty is when it happens.
"I don't think it's so peculiar," Stavrian's eyes flick up to the picture of Hephaestus, then back to the Chief. "We need people like you. People like me break stairs just walking on them." His lips twitch, though one would be hard-pressed to call that a 'smile', then he nods. "Alright, I will check with him and I will ring you." Picking up his tea, he finishes off the warm drink in two more swallows. "If there is anything more I can do…your men or something else…just let me know."
Atreus lifts a brow slightly, his smile warming, "Thanks. I don't either, as it happens." Turning, he looks up at Hephaestus, then hanging still the brightest thing in the room. Looking back, he nods, "Thanks. We need people like you too, Lieutenant." Rising, he leaves his tea where it is, though it is certain that he will return to it, "Actually, there is, though there is no onus on it if you don't care to."
Stavrian stands up, tossing the paper cup in the nearest bin he can spot. He gently rubs his hands together, lifting his chin. "What's that, Chief?"
Atreus pauses, then moves to the hatch to his office, "Two things, actually." Pulling it open, he leans on one side of the opening, crossing his arms one over the other. His chin lifts, "I'm going to be using paintball to teach my people how to shoot. It isn't the same as using an honest firearm, but pull some of their skills out of their boots." Then, he looks over to you, "These people mean everything to me, Lt. I'd like you to hold first aide classes, if you can find the time. I'll make 'em mandatory…" Inhaling, he releases it slowly, "So, that's the first thing. The second?" One corner of his lips lift into a lopsided smile, "If it's off-duty, wouldja call me Constantine or Atreus?"
Paintball? Stavrian's blue eyes blink slowly, and he almost chuckles. "You know Corporal Maragos is holding a MOUT, open to non-coms? You might want to submit your people, once they've had a few turns at that paintball." He reaches up, rubbing the back of his neck. "I will certainly talk to Diego about some classes. I doubt she could find that a bad idea. I certainly don't." And as for the last, he gives Atreus a curious look but there's no recoil. "Ah, sure. And…" He makes a gesture make at himself, as though to extend obvious courtesy the other way. "Jesse. Stavrian. Whichever."
Atreus nods, "Yeah. He is. I'll be sending folks through, depending on how they do at paintball. Don't want them to feel discouraged going up with Marines. Or, other departments with more experience." His gaze turns again to the area outside the door. Looking back, he catches the curious look, "What…?" He nods, "Thanks. I won't abuse the privilege, Lt. Promise."
"Privilege." Stavrian repeats the word as though he found it a little amusing, corner of his mouth twitching again. "It's not a privilege. It's just my name." He rolls his shoulders, catching a glance at his watch. "Well, I should go. But I will be in touch very shortly."
Atreus steps back a bit to let you out easily, "Yeah, it's your name, LT. But, it's use? That's a privilege." Or so he sees it, "Especially in the military where surnames and ranks are common." Standing by the bookshelf, for the office is pretty small, he suppresses the urge to look at his wrist where no watch has lived in ages, "See you soon, then. And thanks again."

But his final analysis seems to be just a bit off.
I have studied these things thoroughly for years also, and see many or most of the same things he brings up in the video, but even more, I see the rapture occurring in Rev 14 at the sounding of the last trump which occurs in Rev 11. Which coincides with what Jesus taught in some of His parables and in His Mt olivet discourse. It also coincides with what Paul taught in 1 Corinthians 15 and in Thessalonians.
Also, Daniel seems to say the same thing also.
I do believe that the rapture will not be pre nor post tribulation but in the midst some time after the midpoint after the antiChrist desecrates the temple in Jerusalem when he sets himself up to be worshipped as God.
Another thing that he may have missed is that one of the heads being fatally wounded may not need to be a person. It may be possible that it is a country. Germany being one of the countries that makes up the head could be the one referred to having been fatally wounded and recovered when the wall of berlin came down. There is imagery in both Revelation and Daniel that hints that Germany (Leapard), UK (Lion) and Russia (Bear) are key heads of the one world government and that a one world religion will be used to glue it all together and that religion appears that it will be a marriage of Islam with Catholocism.
This is my understanding of the scriptures about the end times, but I believe that more and more truth will be revealed as the days pass.
As far as I am concerned, I need not worry about it, but just draw near to Him and keep myself pure and unspotted from the world and He will take care of the rest.
I personally agree with you about not "worrying" about it. All this debating and arguing over the rapture is pointless, and a waste of time. Some argue that there is no rapture; That's fine with me, I just want to stay focused on Him so I can be with Him forever. Some argue about pre-trib, mid-trib, or post-trib; Whenever is fine with me, I just want to stay focused on Him so I can be with Him forever.
Bottom line is Jesus said that no one knows the hour or the day, not even Him. So I can't understand why in the world people continue to try to pin point it. Just yesterday (11/19) I seen on a post on a facebook group where people were really getting into it about the rapture. None were really arguing, although some were accusing others of not reading the scriptures. To me, it's all pointless, we are to stay focused on Him and doing HIs Will, period, until the Day of His return. And since we do not know that Day, it is a waste of time trying to figure it out. If God didn't reveal it to His Own Son, why would He reveal it to us? Besides, "if" "we" knew the date, many would just lax and not do what we are suppose to do.
This article confirms what I thought about the "great falling away" according to 2 Thessalonians 2:3. For quite a few years, so many years, there has been a major falling away from the Truth already. So unless this verse talks about even a greater falling away, this contradicts what he said. However, what he said about the falling away because the Rapture not happening makes perfect sense to me. Why? I have already read an article recently where a guy that stopped believing in a Rapture period because it hasn't happened yet. I doubt seriously that he is the only one. And I'm sure that "IF" the antichrist takes reign, a one world government is established, and the mark has become mandatory, and the Rapture still hadn't happened yet, many will fall away. I can definitely see that happening.

Q: Why we cant use arithmetic mean when in planning poker? Why so? I really can't understand that. Why we can only select from numbers proposed by players?

A: You can do what you want to do. However, the thought about choosing the exact numbers that are proposed is that with growing numbers, you cannot estimate small details reliably. That's why with growing numbers, the gaps between numbers become larger.
Once you start giving detailed numbers (like one estimating 8 and the next 13, chosing 11 as a mean) people assume this actually is a detailed estimation. It's not. The method is meant to be a rough guess.

A: Behind the idea that people should agree on one number is that everybody should have the same understand of the story.
If people pick very different numbers they have a different understanding how much work needed to complete the story or how difficult it will be. The different numbers should start discussions then and finally lead to a shared view of the story.

A: The numbers used are spaced far apart on purpose (typically from the Fibonacci sequence). If you get numbers from all across the board from 1 to 23, you're supposed to ask why the person who voted 1 gave it such a low score ("Did you think about testing and deployment? What about these other acceptance criteria?") and why the person who voted 23 gave it such a high score ("Are you aware we already have an existing code base? Did you know that Karen knows a lot about this and can pair up with you?") and then re-vote. If you're really stuck because half the team says 8 and the other half says 13, you can take the 13 and move on with your lives.
The extra precision isn't necessary when your accuracy is not great. My team goes for even less precision and buckets stories into "small" (one person can do a bunch in an iteration), "medium" (one person can handle a few of these), "large" (one person a week or more), and "extra large" (too big and needs to be split).

A: You should think to numbers as symbols with none arithmetic meaning, except for a (partially) ordered relation, because they are estimates (of effort need to do done a user story).
If you use math to model an estimate you should provide a way:

*

*to represent certainty

*to represent uncertainty

*to operate with that representations

*to define an average as a function of certainty and uncertainty

If you use some kind of average which operates on estimates modeled as single numbers you are supposing that certainty and uncertainty can be handle in the same way, and I guess it's a bad assumption.
I think that the spirit of planning poker session is achiving a team-shared estimates by a discussion among human being and not using arithmetic on human being estimates.

BALLYCULTER, a parish
BALLYCULTER, a parish, in the barony of LECALE, county of DOWN, and province of ULSTER; containing, with the post-town of Strangford, 2221 inhabitants. It is situated on Lough Strangford, and comprises, according to the Ordnance survey, (including islands and detached portions) 5177 ½ statute acres, of which 1753 are applotted under the tithe act; about four-fifths are arable and pasture, and the remainder, excepting about 70 acres of woodland and 40 of water, is waste land and bog. The soil is very fertile, and the land is in a state of excellent cultivation; a considerable quantity of corn is sent to Liverpool and Glasgow. At Tallyratty are some lead mines, which were worked in 1827, and found very productive; the ore is considered to be of superior quality, but they are not now worked. Castle Ward, the splendid seat of Lord Bangor; Strangford House, the residence of the Hon. Harriet Ward; and Strangford Lodge, that of J. Blackwood, Esq., are situated in the parish. The village is neatly built, and is one of the most pleasant in the county. A manor court is held at Strangford every three weeks by the seneschal of the lord of the manor, in whom are vested very extensive privileges; its jurisdiction extends over the parish and the river of Strangford.
The living is a rectory, in the diocese of Down, and was formerly annexed to the deanery of Down, from which it was separated in 1834, and made a distinct rectory, in the patronage of the Crown; the tithes amount to £387. 15. 7. The church, a spacious and handsome structure, was erected in 1723, and a tower and spire were added to it in 1770: the Ecclesiastical Commissioners have lately granted £295 for its repair. There is a chapel at Strangford, the private property of Lord De Roos, of which the rector is chaplain. The glebe-house was built by aid of a gift of £450 and a loan of £50 from the late Board of First Fruits, in 1817: there is a glebe at Strangford, comprising 6a. 2r. 37p. Lord Bangor is about to build a glebe-house in or near the village for the residence of the rector. In the R. C. divisions the parish forms part of the union or district of Ballee; there are two chapels, one at Strangford and the other at Cargagh; and there are two places of worship for Wesleyan Methodists. In the village is a handsome school-house, with residences for a master and mistress, built in 1824, and supported by an annual donation of £50 from Lord Bangor, and a small donation from the rector. An infants' school is supported entirely by the Hon. Harriet Ward. These schools afford instruction to about 94 boys and 84 girls; and there are also two pay schools, in which are about 82 boys and 48 girls, and four Sunday schools. Near the church are four handsome alms-houses, built in 1832 at the expense of Lady Sophia Ward, who endowed them with £40 per annum, payable out of the estate of Lord Bangor for ever; the management is vested in three trustees, of whom the rector for the time being is one. Within the parish are three castles erected by De Courcy and his followers after the conquest of Ulster; one is situated close to the quay at Strangford, one on the creek below Castle Ward, and the third is Audley Castle on a rock opposite to Portaferry.

In her first book "Devoted: 38 Extraordinary Tales of Love, Loyalty, and Life with Dogs," author Rebecca Ascher-Walsh shared with readers a touching collection of stories about the amazing ways pets alter the lives of their humans.
Like "Devoted," her new book "Loyal: 38 Inspiring Tales of Bravery, Heroism, and the Devotion of Dogs," gives readers a variety of heartwarming stories and photos. Only this time, the collection is entirely devoted to the outstanding work and impact of service dogs.
"When I started [this project] I thought it would just be about amazing dogs, because everyone's dog is amazing," Ascher-Walsh tells us. But what she discovered, however, was something bigger.
"Loyal" features an array of dogs, from all different backgrounds, who have changed the lives of the people around them.
There's Drago, the service dog who helped comfort the students and staff of Sandy Hook Elementary after a gunman claimed 27 innocent lives.
There's Klinger, the first certified running guide dog, who helped his blind owner get to the finish line.
There's Niko, the Pit Bull-Corgi mix who helped a prisoner become rehabilitated through the Canine CellMates program.
There's Bandit, the towering and big-hearted Great Dane who helped service members begin to heal from the physical and emotional scars for war.
Ascher-Walsh—who is not only a volunteer at an animal shelter in New York City, but is a pet mom to rescued Pit Bulls—says that while each story is unique and special, there is one common thread throughout the book.
Ascher-Walsh hopes that the book can bring people together during times of trouble and division.
"Loyal: 38 Inspiring Tales of Bravery, Heroism, and the Devotion of Dogs" is available in stores and online on March 7, 2017.

The Case That Shocked the Country
The Case that Shocked the Country: The Unquiet deaths of Vida Robare, and Alexander McClay Williams -- the youngest person to die in the electric chair in Pennsylvania -- for a crime he did not commit, recounts an actual 1930 murder case in Delaware County, Pennsylvania. This stunning story sent shockwaves across the country as it flashed across newspaper headlines as far away as Texas, California, and Canada. It is a compelling combination of legal history, a real life murder mystery, and a 30 year quest for justice for a long forgotten 16 year old African American youth buried in an unmarked grave, who remains the youngest known person, to date, to die in Pennsylvania's electric chair.
Go Stand Upon the Rock (2014)
Go Stand Upon the Rock is a deeply moving story based on real people and events in the lives of a runaway slave and his family, who witness some of the most compelling moments in antebellum American history. It is a tale of unsettling plantation life, courageous women, dramatic Civil War battles, heroes and hoodoo, and the indomitable strength of the human spirit. This novel is based on the family history handed down to me by my maternal grandmother, Maud Ray Ridley Ortiga – the granddaughter of former runaway slaves.

Warneford Meadow is an area of  of natural grassland immediately south-east of the Warneford Hospital, in Headington, east Oxford, England. The Warneford Meadow is a wild space within urban Oxford. The area has been used by local residents as a public space for recreation for over 50 years.

History
Warneford Meadow was purchased in 1918 by the Warneford Hospital, a psychiatric hospital, following the sale of the adjacent Southfield Farm. The purchase was funded by public subscription, with the aim of providing natural green space for the psychological benefit of patients and the local community. Archaeological trenching performed in 2006 suggested a Roman or pre-Roman settlement, or area of pottery production, in the area of the present meadow.

Geography

Access to the Meadow is gained from either a lane off Hill Top Road, beside the Southfield Park Golf Club, or Roosevelt Drive opposite the 'Little Oxford' housing development (beside the Headington Care Home). The Meadow slopes gradually down from the Hill Top Road end, towards the Boundary Brook, which runs between the Meadow and the Churchill Hospital to the East. Several public paths run across the Meadow. South of the Meadow is the Southfield Park Golf Club and the Meadow is bounded to the west by homes on Hill Top Road. Warneford Meadow also includes an orchard, on the northern border of the Meadow with the Warneford Hospital.

Biodiversity
The Meadow contains species of butterfly, invertebrates, and birds including skylarks and kingfishers. The Meadow forms part of the 'green corridor' which links South Park to the Thames via Boundary Brook. The Meadow's border hedges include blackberries. The Warneford Orchard on the northern edge of the Meadow is over 50 years old and has varieties of apple including the Russian Emperor Alexander. Owls, bats, and badgers are also found in the orchard.

Development

Development of the Meadow is permitted under the Oxford Local Plan 2001–2016. The Oxfordshire & Buckinghamshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust (OBMH) submitted two outline planning applications in July 2006, regarding the Meadow. The primary reason for the development, stated by the OBMH management, was the desire to generate capital for the Trust, in order to upgrade patient facilities. In answer to a parliamentary question about the assets of the United Kingdom's NHS as a whole Liam Byrne, the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State at the Department of Health, revealed that the 'surplus' land at the Warneford Hospital was worth £30,900,000.

The plans for development met with substantial opposition from local residents, led by nearby Residents Associations and the action group 'Friends of Warneford Meadow'.

An application to have the land registered as a Town or Village Green (under section 22 of the Commons Registration Act 1965, amended by section 98 of the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000). was launched in December 2006. The application was successful, and Warneford Meadow was designated as a Town Green in April 2009. Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust challenged the decision in the High Court; the action commenced in February 2010. In March 2010 the High Court upheld the original decision to register the meadow as a Town Green.

Every now and again, I am reminded that the best journalists on the planet clearly work for The Onion. Their ability to dive into the heart of a crisis is uncanny.
There you have it. Hilarious, if you are into dark, dark, dark humor.


Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says the Government's decision to open a mental health inquiry is "answering a call" from the community.
A key election promise, the inquiry into mental health and addiction is due to be wrapped up by the end of October. It will be chaired by Auckland University Law Professor Ron Paterson.
The inquiry has been asked to report back on mental health and addiction needs and recommend specific changes that would improve the mental health system.
"We are ultimately answering a call, and that call came from the community," Ms Ardern said.
"It came from family members who experienced loss. It came from people who had tried to access mental health services, and it came from people in the workforce. We are answering that call.
"We're acknowledging all of the concerns that have been raised, and we're hoping to find the answers they are looking for. "
Health Minister David Clark said members of the inquiry "have licence to be critical of Government if required… It's right that it is that way."
The budget for the inquiry is $6.5 million. The Chair will be paid $1400 a day, and Members will receive $975 a day.
While New Zealand First and the Greens are on board, National doesn't support the inquiry.
It's not going to change anything, National Party leader Bill English said earlier this afternoon.
"This inquiry will take most of this year" and by the time recommendations are back and reflected in the Budget, "nothing will happen until 2020."
"An inquiry isn't going to reduce suicides", he said.
The Government should instead be implementing the plan put in place by the previous Government, he said.
Dr Clark said the Government won't be conducting a Royal Commission as that would take too long.
Individual incidents or cases are outside the scope of the inquiry.

3.	Based on the magnification, how many of the E. Coli can fit into the same space as the head of a pin?
4.	About how many red blood cells could fit across the diameter of a human hair (again, look at the magnification scale)?
1.	What is the first step normally taken when you look through the ocular lenses?
2.	What is the highest objective lens you can use to see the entire letter e?
3.	The nuclei (the structure inside a cell that contains DNA) of the cheek cells have been stained using a special dye so that they appear purple. What shape are they?
4.	At high magnification, you may notice that not all of the nuclei in the onion root tip slide appear as the shape you described in the question above. What do they look like?
5.	After completing the m1 exercise in the "Try this" section, how tall is the letter e?

Q: How do I serve two different servers to different subdomains on port 80? Currently I have two node applications on a Digital Ocean droplet, on top of an Apache install. One is on port 3000, and the other is on 3001.
I would like to route incoming requests to suba.domain.com on port 80 to the application on port 3000, and subb.domain.com on port 80 to port 3001.
This site seemed to be what I was looking for, but it didn't work, and I also tried the solution on this thread, which didn't work either.
Are these not the solutions that I'm looking for? Is there something different about trying to set it up on a subdomain instead of the top level domain? I'd appreciate any advice out there - thanks in advance!

A: I eventually got this to work using nginx. It was way, way easier to do in nginx as opposed to trying to figure it out with apache. There was a lot more documentation for this type of stuff, so if you're trying to do something similar, to what I have listed here, consider switching to nginx.
