North to south: Sherburn in Elmet, South Milford (Leland's "Milburne village"), Ferrybridge, and Barnsdale. The latter certainly is not c. three miles off to the left between South Milford and Ferrybridge as Leland would have it.
Bust of John Leland (from Leland, John; Smith, Lucy Toulmin, ed. The Itinerary of John Leland in or about the Years 1535-1543 (London, 1906-10), vol. I, plate facing p. 36).
By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-07-12. Revised by Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2019-04-05.
From Shirburne to Milburne village a mile, and passing from thens to Fere brydg apon Aire river a iiii. miles of or more. The brid[g]e is of an viii. arches of stone, and ther is a village.
The soile betwixt neere in sight plaine, wel cornid, but litle wood.
Along on the lift hond a iii. miles of betwixt Milburne and Feribridge I saw the wooddi and famose forest of Barnesdale, wher they say that Robyn Hudde lyvid like an owtlaw.
From Ferybridge to Pontfract a mile.
This entry in John Leland's Itinerary was written sometime in the years c. 1535-43. As Leland rode south from Sherburn-in-Elmet ("Shirburne") via South Milford ('Millburne') to Ferrybridge, Barnsdale would be straight ahead, several kilometers south of him, it would not be "on the lift hond a iii. miles of betwixt Milburne and Feribridge". Although his sense of direction is here certainly at fault and "Milburne village" must be a mistake for South Milford, we should not necessarily find fault with him, as some have, for describing Barnsdale as a "forest". The word has been used in the general sense of an "extensive tract of land covered with trees and undergrowth, sometimes intermingled with pasture" for about as long as it has been used in the legal sense of an area of land subject to the forest law.

COMMISSIONER GARI BAKI'S DIRECTIVE TO MONITOR ALL WARRANT OF ARRESTS
by MICHAEL J. PASSINGAN
In a Minute dated 30/07/2015, controversial Police Commissioner Gari Baki wrote to his controversial Acting Deputy Commissioner Raphael Huafolo with the following contents:
"This is to reiterate my previous instruction to the National Fraud Squad Anti-Corruption Directorate.
No more Warrants of Arrests are to be obtained direct from the Courts.
All requests for Warrants of Arrest by Police are to be referred to you for vetting and approval prior to referral to the Courts.
Bring this to the notice of NFACD. Breaches will result in departmental action taken against officer concerned."
This minute is believed to have been circulated to all the Police throughout the country as there are fraud and corruption divisions and officers in all the provinces.
PNG Blogs approached a prominent lawyer who has been practising law since the early 1990s and the lawyer bluntly said "unconstitutional and corruption at the highest level."The lawyer said "apart from the current role the Commissioner is playing to protect the Prime Minister and other senior people from imminent arrest, he has clearly stepped out of line. Section 197 of the Constitution gives powers to each police officer to arrest and charge anybody suspected of committing a crime. The Arrest Act supplements the Constitution by providing conditions upon which a person can be arrested and they are when the police officer reasonably believes that a person (1)has committed an offence; (2) is committing an offence and (3) is about to commit an offence. Some crimes under the Criminal Code such as Official Corruption require warrant before an arrest.
There is no provision for the police officer to consult the Commissioner or his deputy before the arrest. How can a police officer in Samarai, sees someone committing an offence but cannot do anything about it because he has to seek approval from the Commissioner or his deputy? So does that mean that the Commissioner and his deputy will now spend their time to vet all requests from all the 4000-5000 police officers' requests instead of running the Police Department?
Legally and Practically Absurdity!!!!!"
More is coming soon on the Commissioner of O'Neill, All thinking Papua New Guineans should revolt and rise up for the Commissioner of Police to Step Down. He has converted the Corruption fighting institution into supporting corruption. This cannot happen under our watch.
Another senior citizen former bureaucrat commented "Unheard of! The Commissioner of Police has converted the Constitutional independent anti-corruption fighting corruption into an institution supporting corruption. He has to Go!"
The minute is attached.

K117 MILLION FOR 8 KILOMETERS - DAYLIGHT ROBBERY?
by MILES GARET PUBLIC CALL FOR INVESTIGATION INTO K117 MILLION 9 MILE TO 14 MILE NCD ROAD CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT TO MOBILE WORKS LIMITED The public demand an investigation into the award of a massive K117 million questionable contract to a K2 inexperienced company called Mobile Works Limited for the construction of 9 mile to 14 mile road in NCD. This project was launched on Friday by the owner of the K2 company Mr David Raim from Western Highlands Province. Mr. Raim is also the owner of Island Mobile Hire Cars who is known for offering kickbacks to politicians and officials to get hire car contracts in PNG. The award of this contract is highly questionable and suspicious given the following facts: 1. The K117 million value of the contract is highly-priced for the distance from 9 mile to 14 mile. We demand an independent assessment to substantiate the pricing regime adopted in the tender price bid and evaluation outcome. 2. Mobile Works Limited lacks the necessary technical experience a
Who is David Sove? WHP Governor Paias Wingti must explain
by A Concerned Western Highlander The Western Highlands Development Corporation is the business arm of the Western Highlands Provincial Government and is owned by the Western Highlands Provincial Government (WHPG) and a company called, Western Highlands Schools Foundation Limited (WHSFL). The WHPG which represents the 500,000 plus inhabitants of the Western Highlands Province owns 91202 shares in the company while WHSFL owns 136803 shares in the WHDC. WHSFL owns 60 % of WHDC while WHPG owns 40 %. WHSFL has one director and shareholder by the name of David Sove who lives in Malolo Estate in Port Moresby North-East Electorate, 8 Mile, National Capital District, Papua New Guinea. The business arm of Western Highlands Provincial Government is owned by the people of Western Highlands Province ( 40 %) and this individual, David Sove, who owns 60 % of the company. Apparently, the Kapal Haus rentals are paid to WHDC along with all other rentals and proceeds from assets and various business d
A SIGNATURE IN THE SAND
by ANDREW MOUTU This young boy grew up in the village. At the right age, he was enrolled at the small primary school in his home village, Kukipi. However, there were no blackboards or chalk made available to the school. There were no desks for the children to sit on. This caused the school and the village to become a bit innovative, to work within the limits of constraints. This Toaripi speaking village is on the coast and is located not far from the beach where there was as an abundance of sand that sometimes become exposed to occasional rushes of the wind through the village. Makeshift classrooms were built and students attended their lessons in these temporary structures. Each day the students return to their classrooms and sit on the sand and write their lessons and assignments with their fingers in the sand. He recalls using mats and plant leaves to cover and hide his answers on the sand until the teacher comes along to read and assess his answers before he wipes them clean and st
POLITICAL APPOINTEE MELL DESTROYING NDB-THE PRICE OF POLITICS
by MEL TIKI During the political horse-trading at Laguna in April 2019 controversial William Duma, as cunning as he is, convinced PM-elect Marape to appoint him Minister for Trade & Industry. He then demanded that NDB and MVIL be placed under his ministry. Marape obliged and a ministerial determination was made to effect that change. Duma is notorious for appointing cronies to positions of responsibility in State entities and then manipulating them for his own selfish gains. Following his appointment Duma quickly moved to simultaneously appoint his tribesmen Michael Makap as CEO for MVIL and his first cousin Michael Mell has NDB Chairman. Both appointments were clear cases of cronyism and many people were appalled by the decisions. Mell, in particular, did not possess the necessary boardroom and banking and financial sector qualifications and experience to be elevated to such an important role. He has never managed a large, complex or successful organisation in his life. The Mara
Stay Woke: Do not be fooled by the Take Back PNG cultists
By Waigani Observor The Marape government remains popular amongst many Papua New Guineans. But does the government deserve this reputation? Many point to actions such as refusal to renew Barrick's license as well going tough on gas negotiations as evidence of the Take Back PNG agenda. Let's take a look at the Marape government's actions and/or inactions that totally contradict their Take Back PNG slogan. Firstly, we've seen from the recent Supreme Court ruling that this government has not been shy to thrash the Constitution. The case allowed woke Papua New Guineans to see the trickers of the matrix reveal their cards as they failed terribly to justify their illegal actions. And that has been the theme of this government of charismatic double-tongued tricksters. Kramer and Marape, despite all the ground worshipping by their headless fans as anti-corruption agents, have not sent one corrupt person to prison. Kramer apologists will probably come up with reasonable soundin
'BIG FISH' NOW IDENTIFIED IN COCAINE BUST
A new twist in the PNG cocaine trade investigations has identified 30 new names as "persons of interest" – big fish identified. These include names of politicians including government ministers, senior public servants, senior police officers, senior military officers, and senior citizens and businessmen involved in planning and moving of cocaine from wherever they are into PNG, portion of it to be used here in PNG and the rest sent to Australia. These 30 are additional to ones already arrested and charged for their part in the July 26 "black flight" Cessna 402 crash at Papa Lealea outside Port Moresby. "Dominic Terupo and Morgan Mogu are errand boys, they drive, move cargo and clean up, they have no idea about the type and value of the concealed cargo (cocaine) they were dealing with. They work for cash, their names are not mentioned in any of the conversations we have been watching. They are generally referred as "village people". They are wrongfully arrested and convicted by
CORRUPTION AT THE TOP OF PNG CUSTOMS
In October 2020, a very important event took place. David Towe became the new Chief Commissioner for PNG Customs. There were 3 candidates shortlisted for this position. Two of the other candidates were long time customs PNG staffs with decades of experience. And David Towe? He's a manager with British American Tobacco (BAT). According to treasurer Ling Stuckey, David Towe is the most qualified and appointed based on MERIT ( https://www.thenational.com.pg/cabinet-appoints-customs.../ ) This is the most blatant conflict of interest I have ever seen. You take the senior manager of one of the largest taxpaying company in PNG. And make him the head of customs, who is in charge of collecting taxes. That's like saying- Borneo Pacific CEO is the best person to lead the Health Department. RH is most qualified to be in charge of Forestry. RD Tuna's owner should be the managing director of Fisheries. MCC is most qualified to run the Mining Department In fact, why not let Joe Chan (In

We are always looking for new ways to help our clients, and today we think we have something pretty cool to offer from our friends at Webnames.ca. KnowEm is pleased and happy to announce that any purchase of a Business, Corporate or Enterprise level package will receive a free .tel domain name registration with free hosting for 1 year (a $22 value).
Put simply, the new .tel domains were created to offer you a single point of reference for all your professional and business contact information on the internet. You can update your contact information globally and in real time across the internet, making you and your company much more accessible.
"The domain name .tel is a top-level domain (TLD) in the Domain Name System (DNS) of the Internet. It was approved by ICANN as a sponsored top-level domain, and is operated by Telnic. Telnic announced in January 2011 that over 300,000 domains had been registered since the start of general availability on 24 March 2009.
A substantial drop of mostly IDN .tels occurred at the beginning of 2014 – the current total registered .tels as at 3 February 2014 is 148,144 according to the Daily Stats monitor at http://registrarstats.com/TLDDomainCounts.aspx.
The 2014 Monthly Stats for .tel can be monitored at http://www.hosterstats.com/DomainNameCounts2014.php.
So, why should anyone care about owning a .tel? Because it actually does some pretty cool stuff by inserting your contact info into the DNS. Huh? Yeah, it actually does that. It will put a businesses name, address and phone number right into the DNS. Check out an example of the KnowEm.Tel by clicking here. All of information you are seeing on that page is in the DNS record for knowem.tel.
It's pretty darn cool. So we are very happy to announce our partnership with Webnames.CA and also happy to announce that the purchase of any business level or above package will include a free .TEL domain registration plus hosting for a year. On the completion of your purchase you will be emailed a special coupon code that can be used at http://webnames.ca to register your free .tel name. If you are currently an enterprise or white label client please contact your account administrator to receive your free .tel coupon codes. We can not guarantee all of your accounts will be granted one and this is on a first-come, first-serve basis for now.
Also keep an eye out for KnowEm Perks which will be coming soon, a place where we'll be offering some great deals for all of our current and future clients. We've got some big plans, including everything from free web hosting and free trials to some pretty amazing web services.
I didn't know about the .tel domains. It seems like a great idea, but might also offer an opportunity for squatters to grab an important domain. I'm curious to see a .tel url in action. Would it be possible to see one?
VERY COOL, Barry! thank you. I like it !
And although we're giving them away free with purchase, don't let that stop you from visiting webnames.ca and grabbing your own if you'd like to directly purchase it from them. It's only $22 and comes with free hosting, and it updates the global registry, so it's great for getting your business info out there.

In this verse it is clearly explained that the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krishna, is the original father of all living entities. The living entities are combinations of the material nature and the spiritual nature. Such living entities are seen not only on this planet but on every planet, even on the highest, where Brahma is situated. Everywhere there are living entities; within the earth there are living entities, even within water and within fire. All these appearances are due to the mother, material nature, and Krishna's seed-giving process. The purport is that the material world is impregnated with living entities, who come out in various forms at the time of creation according to their past deeds.
Not only at the time of creation is prakrti the mother and I the father, but always.
Prakrti, mahad brahma, is the place of birth (yonih), the mother, of all those forms of moving and non-moving creatures which appear in all wombs from devas to grass, and I am the giver of the seed. I am the father, the giver of the seed, the giver of the jivas.
sarva-yoniṣu — in all species of life; kaunteya — O son of Kuntī; mūrtayaḥ — forms; sambhavanti — they appear; yāḥ — which; tāsām — of all of them; brahma — the supreme; mahat yoniḥ — source of birth in the material substance; aham — I; bīja-pradaḥ — the seed-giving; pitā — father.


Computers and the Internet are increasingly becoming key components in almost all organizational activities. As a result, there is a huge generation of raw data. If this data is tapped and organized, it will most certainly have a tremendous impact on commercial operations. All you need are big data consultants to help you make the most out of this data. At first, it was just the big organizations with enough resources that were able to enjoy the advantages of big data, but now even smaller organizations can access big data with the emergence of sophisticated computer technologies. As information technology developed, a platform for the information age was created. Big data was the outcome of this trend. It has been quite helpful for large organizations, as they can now tap into big data. In turn, this is very useful for marketing and product development.
Gaining access to big data has been made simpler due to the ease in availability and affordability. This is because more data has been compiled, and at the same time, there are a lot of organizations operating as data providers. As a result, there is competition between them, thus making the prices go down.
The earlier work on big data was able to create a broader level of expertise, which has now been modified by new technology. This new technology breaks big data down into smaller data sets that are easily accessible.
The business model has always been one of the most crucial components of any entity, but it has always been overlooked. Many organizations describe their business models as an inventory of the sources of revenue without consideration as to how the revenue source relates to what generates it, or even as to how the different sources of revenue can be combined to show the sum of the organization's revenue base. As information for marketing and internal performance becomes more available, it gives an organization a basis on which to create a business model that deeply understands its operations and revenue sources.
The concept of diversifying revenue is becoming more crucial in many organizations as they make efforts to keep membership dues at a minimum. While some consider revenue diversification to be part of business models, the whole subject requires a separate consideration. When you identify the sources of revenue, you start by looking at the revenue streams or the activities that do not produce any revenue and then assess their potential. Big data contains marketing information that can be vital in identifying potential markets and even new sources of revenue that have not been looked into before.


The 2017 outstanding businesswoman list was officially announced on the Jan 3rd. Forty-six female entrepreneurs, including Vice President of the China-U.S. Chamber of Commerce, won Zhejiang outstanding business women awards, people of the Year awards, industry leader awards, cross-national model awards, entrepreneurial pioneer awards.

For five consecutive years, the export volume of animation has ranked first in the country.
In addition, most of the Zhejiang women's women's bid farewell to the low and small initial stages of their business, and they have continued to grow and expand to scale.

In terms of science and technology, the establishment of scientific research departments, the introduction of scientific and technological talents, increased investment in science and technology, and the need to benefit from science and technology have become the consensus of the Zhejiang women merchants. Xie Xili's Shengli Zhenghong Group has invested in the development of wind energy, solar energy, biomass energy, water energy and other new energy projects, with a total installed capacity of 100,000 kilowatts, which is one example.
"As a female entrepreneur and mother of two children at the same time, this is not just a new label and a new identity that the times have given us, but also a new mission and new expectations." Wu Jia, who was awarded the "People" award, hopes that he can confidently assume the responsibility of this era and inherit the spirit and culture of Zhejiang businessmen.
Fang Jintu, deputy director of the Zhejiang Provincial Administration for Industry and Commerce, said that the Zhejiang Merchant Women's Jade is an outstanding representative of the majority of Zhejiang businessmen. They are brave enough to demonstrate the spirit of entrepreneurship; they love and respect their jobs, fully embody the spirit of model workers, and strive to perfection, fully embodying the spirit of artisans. He hoped that the Zhejiang merchant female heroes would further advance the new journey of industrial development, green development and poverty alleviation and development.

In this week's episode, CJ and Simon discussed Fragment Seven: Furomaris. Behind the scenes, this fragment was called the 'triptych fragment'. This was because there were clues embedded in Sullivan's journal, in triptych format, explaining the complex means through which he protected Deirdre. Soon afterwards, The Mountaineers were led, via hints from Sullivan and Lauren, to solve a geographic puzzle, involving UTM location codes and classic works of literature, such as A Study in Scarlet and The Red Badge of Courage, and eventually leading them to The Morgan Library in New York, where a previously lost Ackerly Green book (Seven Cradle Songs) was said to be.
CJ recalled how this was one of the more difficult puzzles for The Mountaineers to complete. Though attempts were made to make the puzzles as logical as possible, certain roadblocks had to be inserted. Otherwise, readers would be able to solve the puzzle too quickly, once the system of logic was unraveled. CJ originally planned the part of the puzzle involving Cole going to The Morgan Library to be a live video event, though he realized a week beforehand that no video or photography was allowed in the library. But, as CJ said, "necessity is the mother of invention," and by doing the puzzle live through the forum, it was carried out very successfully. As Simon put it, this made the live events more successful—it now depended more on imagination than on trivial circumstances of the real world. Henceforth, this is how all live events in The Monarch Papers were carried out.
CJ noted that there was a piece of the puzzle that The Mountaineers never found, but the ending of the puzzle had to go forward regardless, because a hard date for The Cagliostro's performance had already been set. This ended up being for the best, though, because CJ, Simon, and Jonny were all severely exhausted and overworked, by this point in The Monarch Papers. This also resulted in Cole having a direct confrontation with Lauren, and Lauren setting the library on fire. This wouldn't have happened, if the Mountaineers had solved the puzzle. This is an excellent of example of how The Monarch Papers responded to the readers' actions on the fly. The readers seemed generally concerned for the safety of the characters, during this time, and this was another major victory for the realism of the Magiqverse.
The relationship between Deirdre and Cole also became more involved in the interactive part of the story, and strengthened interest in their respective characters. Before this, there were no concrete plans for their romantic relationship to flourish. Also revealed at this time was the fact that Cole was trans, though this had been planned in advance, so that it would feel more realistic, a genuine part of his character, and not simply an artificially-inserted plot twist. CJ and Simon were strongly moved by the reader reaction to this revelation. Many trans and non-binary readers strongly identified with and looked up to Cole, in the fragments that followed.
CJ and Simon reflected on the welcome surprise of Lauren's growth of a character, and how this was largely based on a last-minute decision. Originally, it was planned that Lauren would die, and while she did in one sense, she did not with the originally intended sense of finality. One other possibility was that Cole would be kidnapped by The Silver, and disappear afterwards, for an extended period of time.

4219 Hungary - Buda
A current church built by Augustinians, but they were expelled 200 years ago.
This page is unusual in that the Augustinian-built church it details still exists, but has not been administered by the Order of St Augustine for about 200 years. Hungary was most likely one of the "founding nations" of the Order of Saint Augustine in the year 1256. It is believed by many historians that the Augustinian Province of Hungary existed at the time of the General Chapter at Siena in 1295, or else certainly soon after 1308. Whichever the case, Hungary had six Augustinian houses by the year 1300.
The date of the Augustinian foundation at Buda is uncertain, yet it had enjoyed a long history before its friars were evicted and its buildings destroyed by the invading Turks in 1541. No drawings are available of this first Augustinian church on the Order's first site in Buda. As is explained hereunder, this web page deals with the Order's second and third churches, both of which were built successively on the Order's second site in Buda.
The first Augustinian monastery to be established in the Hungarian region after the Turks departed was the one in Léka, which now lies in Austria. The Augustinians there were instrumental in winning the town back to Catholicism after it had become almost completely Lutheran. The monastery was established in Léka in 1655. The Augustinians did not find it easy to arrange the return to Buda after an absence of 161 years. Franz Joseph I (ruling from 26th July 1678 to 17th April 1711), Holy Roman Emperor, King of Bohemia, King of Hungary, King of the Romans protested that there were already an excessive number of parishes in his kingdom.
He particularly objected to the increased presence of contemplative orders, being of the stated opinion that there were too many "unproductive" religious orders in the empire. The storm-clouds of the forthcoming so-called era of Enlightenment were already appearing on the horizon. Furthermore, the civic authorities in Buda argued that there were enough religious orders in Buda. It was the high standing of the Order, and the support of influential patrons, that finally won the day for the Augustinians. They had to guarantee, however, that they would not be a financial burden on the populace by begging for money, etc.
The Augustinian friars in 1700 returned to Buda to this different location (see the woodcut of 1740, reproduced hereunder) that most probably was in the same general vicinity as the earlier Augustinian property there. A simple church was soon constructed, including a single wooden steeple, and in use by 1707. It was only on 24th October 1723 that their St Stephen's Church was given the right to operate as a parish. This right was granted for a period of ten years only. It was renewed again in 1733, and then became a permanent right in 1743. With the appointment of a Prior in 1734, the monastery at Buda became an Augustinian community in a full sense at that time.
The Augustinians had a Jesuit parish on one side (the Vizivárosi) and a diocesan one on the other (Újlaky). The Jesuits were more than happy to work alongside the Augustinians, especially since the Augustinians cared chiefly for the needs of the German-speaking populace in their section of Buda. Information about the Augustinian parish church and monastery at Buda, Hungary in the eighteenth century was recorded in the books by the reputable church historians, Farbavy and Fallenbach, and by the archives – now variously in Franciscan and government possession – at Budapest.
Picture (above): This is a drawing of the Augustinian property at Buda in 1741. The buildings in the 1741 etching are as follows: the "gazdagsági épület" (the work/produce building) is on the far right; next to it leftwards is the temporary house of the Augustinian friars, which at this stage was single-storied; further left is the church of 1700-1752 with its wooden steeple (superseded by the present church, begun in 1752); on the far left is the new Augustinian convent house that in 1740 was still under construction. This friars' temporary convent was previously the house of János (John) Pamer, their former neighbour. The Augustinians purchased his house and land because the property that they had been given was small in size for the number of buildings they intended to erect there.
The "gazdagsági épület" (the work/produce building) included a brick kiln, which the Augustinians first established in about the year 1720 for making the bricks they needed themselves, and also as a means of financially supporting the monastery by selling bricks to others. The people of Buda, however, complained about the smoke and dust that resulted, and henceforth the Augustinians were restricted to producing bricks for their own use only. There was also an Augustinian cemetery on the site. The wall around the monastery grounds was completed in 1722. The Augustinians also possessed other plots of land near Buda for other agricultural purposes, including a small vineyard.
The above drawing of 1741 shows the Danube River in the foreground, on which the Augustinians would have had a small jetty. The "river side" was the rear of the property, and the photographs of 1920 and 1990 (see below) show the opposite side (i.e., the highway side) of the property. The Augustinian property extended from the highway to the Danube River, i.e., it enjoyed a highway frontage and a river frontage. The first bridge across the Danube River physically linking Buda and Pest on its opposite banks was Lánc Híd (literally, the chain bridge) was completed in 1849. (The main commercial district was on the Pest side of the river). Before 1849 transit across the Danube was provided by ferries and barges.
The present Church of St Stephen Martyr at Buda, Hungary (see above) was begun by the Order of St Augustine in 1752. It was designed by a highly-regarded Austrian architect, and built in baroque style of stone covered with plaster. The church was finally completed with the installation of its high altar in 1770, at which stage the church was solemnly consecrated. The two steeples were completed in 1753 and 1754 respectively.
The Augustinians at Buda devoted themselves to parish ministry, and from this site also conducted Mass centres in the immediate vicinity, including Holy Cross Chapel in the City Hall, and a chapel in Christina Street (Krisztina út). They also may eventually have undertaken some ministry across the Danube in Pest. It was a blow to the Augustinians when they were ordered to leave Buda. In his uninvited rationalization of the Church in his empire, Emperor Joseph II disbanded the Augustinians in Buda because their work at Buda did not involve significantly non-parochial ministries that he saw as the typical civic role for religious communities, i.e.: 1. care of the sick (hospital ministry); 2. teaching (education ministry); or 3. scholarly endeavour (university ministry).
Joseph regarded that parish work was the domain of diocesan priests, whose life was far more interconnected with the secular sphere (and over whom Joseph and his ministers had more control). The Augustinians were likewise badly affected by Joseph's restrictive decrees concerning religious orders in Austria. The Augustinians complied with the summons to depart Buda, given that a threat to the existence of the Order in the Austro-Hungarian Empire more broadly was not involved. Perhaps, also, given that many of the Augustinian friars at Buda were non-Hungarians and had closer ties with the Vienna houses of the Order, their departure from Buda might not have been as traumatic as would be imagined.
The Franciscans occupied the site by 1835, having been themselves evicted elsewhere and reluctantly forced to take over this former Augustinian parish. The central altar-piece at the Augustinian church at Buda featured Saint Stephen, the smaller one on the left highlighted Saint Augustine; the smaller one on the right honoured Saint Nicholas of Tolentino. Since Saint Nicholas was very much an Augustinian saint, the Franciscans replaced his altar-piece and inner chapel with one to Saint Francis of Assisi. This probably occurred in 1852.
The church was renovated by the Franciscans in 1926. The building was also seriously damaged in the last stages of World War II. By 1947 it had been repaired, and the interior was repainted at that time. The former Augustinian property (part of which is pictured below) faced Margít körút, the main road in Buda that led to the Margit Bridge that crossed the Danube River to Pest. (Today's combined city of Budapest occupies both banks of the Danube River.) They are located between Mechwart Lépso (Steps) and Buday László utca (Street).
Photos (above): As seen in the above photographs taken in 1920 and 1990 respectively, the former Augustinian monastery and church are now used by the Order of Friars Minor (Franciscans), who took over when the Augustinians departed late in the eighteenth century. The Augustinians had always dedicated their buildings on this site in honour of St Stephen Martyr, and the Franciscans have continued that practice right up to the present time.
The upper floor of the monastery now contains the offices of the Franciscan Provincial, and the ground floor the parish offices and meeting rooms, plus a small religious bookshop. These buildings were constructed by the Augustinians from the year 1700 onwards. The present Franciscan friars live in a newer building further back on the property. In front of the church is the Orság út (National Road), which was the main route leading to Vienna. The Ország Út was widened in 1900, causing the sacrifice of the front garden of the monastery and the church forecourt facing the road. Grateful acknowledgment is made to the Franciscan friars in Budapest for providing the material for this topic, and for translating it into English.

It is the bottom of a small bowl print. The printing surface has half smooth and half rough. The leveling has been calibrated. Which part should I check ?
and this is half speed and temp:210C. The rough area got spread all around but lightly reduced.
It is a small mug print. It also has noisy surface problem. It always happens on the area close to the hand hold. Could it be the side affect of retraction?
For your first picture, that is most definitely due to the fan being only on one side of your print head. The splotchy side is not receiving any cooling so it droops more.
You can solve this one a few ways, make a small rectangle or any shape beside your main bowl about 5 cm to the right and 'print at the same time'. This will make the fan move over to the right side to print the square to ensure that that side receives some cooling. But you will be wasting a little bit of plastic on the rectangle.
You should also try lowering your temperature which may help with problem 2. 220 is pretty high for PLA. For the little splotchies, that's usually due to a bit of oozing before it goes to the next Z level. You can try increasing the retraction speed and distance a tiny bit. Again lower the temperature may help the oozing.
that's the down side of single sided cooling, try a different fan shroud or adding a second. the shroud on the umo is a very common problem, one that has been addressed by the community as a whole. for shee dependable cooling i go with gijs's v2 shroud and the right side counterpart to it, both are on thingiverse (sorry on a rush can't go find them atm, but you should be able to find them). but look around, as Ms. Frizzle would say "It's time to take chances, make mistakes, and get messy!"


A man has appeared in a South African court in connection with vandalising a statue of Mahatma Gandhi.
"He was found while painting the statue with white paint and arrested," police spokesman Kay Makhubele told the BBC.
He was part of a group who demonstrated near the statue on Saturday with placards reading: "Racist Gandhi must fall".
This is the latest in a series of protests in South Africa calling for the removal of historic statues.
While the man who led India to independence is widely regarded a man who stood for peace, some South Africans have accused Gandhi of working with the British colonial government to promote racial segregation.
He lived in South Africa for 20 years and campaigned for the rights of Indian people there.
The rest of the South African protesters, who managed to escape, wore caps with the governing African National Congress (ANC) but the party has distanced itself from the incident and condemned the defacing of the statue.
The suspect Molese Maile, 21, was ordered to return to court on 8 May to answer to the charge of malicious damage to property.
The hashtag #Ghandimustfall (sic) is being circulated on social media in South Africa.
Twitter users are quoting articles reporting that as leader of the Natal Indian Congress, he said that Indians were superior to black people and petitioned the colonial government to have a separate entrance for them at the Durban Post office, where they had previously used the entrance reserved for black people.
Last week, a statue of British colonialist Cecil John Rhodes was removed from the University of Cape Town, following protests by students there.

Tricky tech terms: we explain!
Even if you consider yourself pretty up-to-date with technology, it can still be confusing at the best of times. Forget setting up your iPhone or updating your PC, what if you're feeling utterly baffled by the instructions themselves? Or the jargon has got so out of your comprehension that you're considering just chucking in the towel and getting your other half/father/daughter to sort it out for you?
Do not be defeated! We're here to help. Not only do our fab on-air experts always do their best to explain any lingo that may not be of your every day language, and help you find your way through all the information out there, but we've put together a mini guide for you right here as well. Read on to discover our big five topics with words that always seem to come up, acronyms, operating systems and RAM (does anyone even know what RAM is?). We'll see you on the other (more clued-up) side.
Bluetooth is useful for transferring information between two or more devices (such as tablets and printers) which are close to each other, when speed is not an issue. Most tablets and computers will have Bluetooth capability.
Wi-Fi enables you to connect to the web using your home internet connection or a wireless hotspot, such as at a cafe. It allows a faster connection and almost all portable devices are now Wi-Fi enabled.
USB ports are useful for many reasons. You can use them to connect external hard drives, and to supply electrical power to another device. If you want to connect a digital camera or your smartphone to your device, USB ports are something you will want to look out for.
HDMI is used for transferring audio and video data, and you'll need a special cable to do this. It can be useful to have an HDMI connection if you want to watch a movie from your tablet or laptop on your television.
What you plan on using your device for will determine the type of performance you need.
The processor is a computer chip that acts as the brain of your device. A more powerful processor will allow your laptop to run more tasks more quickly. In simple terms, processors with more 'GHz' are faster, and some computers have multiple processors – these are referred to as cores. The more cores, the more processing power you'll have available.
Options range from dual to quad-core processors, with most laptops having a minimum of a dual-core processor. If you intend to install a lot of software or apps, and run a lot of programs simultaneously, this is when you should consider a more powerful, quad-core processor. A device with a dual-core processor will be fine for online shopping or watching a film. Typically, most tablets will not have more than two cores, as their software has a limited set of capabilities which cannot take advantage of more.
RAM is a super-fast bit of computer memory that the processor uses to help it perform tasks. The more RAM your device has, the faster it will work – making devices with more RAM better suited to multi-tasking. Many laptops will allow you to add extra RAM later if you need it – there are guides available online to help you do this, but if you're at all unsure, speak to a professional.
The operating system is the interface you see on screen when you're using your smartphone, tablet or computer, and most of us have heard of at least one. These days, we almost all use either Windows, Android or Apple.
Tip: if you use a smartphone, it may be worth having a tablet or laptop that uses the same operating system – you'll be able to share files, and they'll work in a similar way.
Android has been developed by Google, and powers a huge number of tablets from lots of different manufacturers. The architecture and structure of the operating system on each one is the same, but each looks a little different because the manufacturer modifies it so it's unique to their machine. Every Android tablet gives you access to the Google Play store, which contains over a million apps for work and play – from games and music to design and word processing. Some apps will come pre-installed, but this will vary depending on which device you buy.
Apple has created individual operating systems for tablets and laptops so you can get the best from your machine. They are designed to integrate seamlessly, so many people who own an Apple laptop go on to buy an Apple tablet or smartphone, or vice versa. iOS is the iPad version, renowned for being beautifully intuitive and having a tidy, clean design. It's very easy to use, especially for novices, and Apple's free iCloud service makes it easy to store and back-up files (like photos and music) without having to own a conventional computer. iOS also powers iPhones, so if you've used one of these before this will feel very similar. OS X is the MacBook version. It's more conventional and will feel sort of familiar if you're used to using a Windows computer.
All Apple devices give you access to the App Store, which contains hundreds of thousands of free and paid-for apps you can use to personalise your machine, and the iTunes store where you can purchase music and films.
On both laptops and tablets, the Windows main screen features a 'Start' button which, when pressed, reveals animated 'Live Tiles' that update in real time, and enable you to quickly navigate to your favourite websites, apps, people and places. That aside, especially on laptops, Windows 10 should feel familiar if you've used a computer in the last couple of decades. The Windows Store gives you access to apps for just about everything you need, both free and paid-for.
Hard drive (sometimes known as hard disk) space is a key factor to consider when choosing a computing device. This is where the operating system and programs are installed, and where you'll save your photos and music library etc. The capacity is usually measured in 'GB' (short for gigabytes, otherwise known as 'gig'). The larger the hard disk, the more you can save. Very large hard drives may be measured in 'TB' (or terabytes). A terabyte is the same as 1024GB (to give an example of how much space you get, 16GB will hold 4,000 – 8,000 photos, or 4,000 songs. 500GB will hold 30,000 – 50,000 photos, or around 125,000 songs).
If you find that you need additional storage space, there are many options available. Some, but not all, devices will have slots for micro or full-sized memory cards, which will increase the device's memory capacity. It is worthwhile checking if the device you plan to buy has this beforehand if you have an extensive photo or music library to house.
Solid State Disks (SSD) are a kind of 'hard disk', and are increasingly common as the storage medium of choice in laptops. SSDs are faster than traditional hard disks and use much less power, thereby increasing battery life. SSDs have no moving parts, so have the added benefit of being completely silent in operation too.
'The cloud' is a catch-all term for a lot of similar storage services that all do the same thing: store your files on a remote hard drive. The idea is that you use 'cloud storage' to store rarely-used files (like old photos or documents), and only download them to your device when you need them – reducing the amount of storage space your device needs, and making it possible to run a tablet without having to also own a conventional PC. A disadvantage of Cloud services, however, is that you can only access your files when you have an active internet connection, so may be limiting if you plan on using your device away from home frequently.
Your display, or your screen resolution is how fine the picture quality is. If you've heard of High Definition or HD TVs, you already might know a little about this. The greater the screen resolution, the more detail you'll be able to see, which is important for gamers or those using video and photo editing software. In computing terms, a pixel is a single point in a picture. Each pixel on the screen adopts a different colour that, when viewed from afar, makes up an image. An image made up of a million pixels is said to be 'one megapixel' or '1MP'. Anything that's described as 1280 x 720 pixels or above qualifies as High Definition.
Lots of tablets and smartphones host a rear-facing camera for shooting photos and videos, with a huge variety in the quality of the cameras included. If you want to take serious professional-quality images, look for a camera that's rated 5 megapixels or above, but bear in mind that flash quality may not compete against a traditional digital camera. Most laptops and many tablets also feature a front-facing camera or webcam, which is designed for video chat with friends and family, using services like Skype.
A laptop has clear advantages when it comes to serious or in-depth gaming due to its superior screen resolution and performance. For more interactive and arcade-style games like Candy Crush or Angry Birds, though, a tablet or smartphone can still keep you entertained for hours at a time. For most tasks you won't need a really powerful graphics card, but for games and video it's worth paying more to get that extra muscle. The graphics card powers the screen and, as you might expect, the faster the card the better the performance.
Tip: A laptop's graphics card can't be upgraded later, so make sure to get the right one from the outset.
Phew! We hope you feel that bit more informed and ready to make your way into the technology jungle (personally we're just happy we finally know what RAM is). Head over to our Electronics page to get stuck in!

Still having burning/ripping pain to the left of my belly button when I move wrong/laugh. Anyone else experiencing this?
Came across your post. This is exactly what I'm going through. Dr said it was normal, but doesn't happen to everyone. Has it subsided for you? I don't know how much longer I can tolerate this. It gets unbearable when I move the wrong way.
Yes! Like apple cider vinegar. Had my first bm today. 4 days and a few hours post op. Dropped right at 10lbs so far. It was an ....interesting..... bm experience.
So I am confused. My plan says no more than 2-5oz of liquid at a time, but I need to get at least 64 ounces of liquids down including my 45-60 grams of protein. How do I only have 2 ounces at a time but also meet my goals? Anyone else having this confusion?
I had a low grade fever as well the first two days. Dr said it was normal. Your body underwent a major operation. Low grade fever is your immune system doing it's job. As long as it doesn't get high and you keep pushing fluids, you'll be fine.
Day 3 post surgery. Feeling pretty good. Having pain to the left of my belly button, about 2 inches below the big incision. Feels like a burning/searing pain when I engage my stomach muscles. Trying to take it easy. Focusing on liquids and protein. Started on full liquids this morning. The premier caramel tasted like the best thing in the world after all that broth. Question for all the post sleevers, how much do you aim to walk each day? I'm trying g to get up at least once an hour for at least 10 minutes. I live on the third floor, so walking outside right now isn't an option.
My surgery is tomorrow too (july26). Super nervous.
So, I've been very selective with whom I have told about my upcoming surgery. Just close friends and family. Most of them gave their encouragements and support. However, one work friend I told (who I thought would be sympathetic seeing as how she is very large and understands what it's like) was very much against me having surgery. Actually against VSG or other WLS in general. Something about her sister having gained all her weight back from bypass (or something to that affect). She keeps telling me I just need to get some willpower and work hard. Sends me diets and workout routines on FB. Doesn't she realize that if all it took was willpower and hard work that I would already be fit and thin; those things just haven't worked for me. How have you dealt with bad reactions/negativity you received when people found out about your choice to have VSG?
When I had my bypass on June 28th it was the very first surgery I had ever had in life. Indeed a big deal! But you will get through it. You've got this! Congrats! My sleeve in 2 weeks will be my first surgery as well. My fear is of being put under. But it's gonna be so worth it!
Have you tried adding in a protein shake/supplement? Premier Protein has 30 grams of protein in each bottle, 160-180 calories. And they taste pretty darn good too. Helps satisfy my sweet tooth as well.
My surgery is in 2.5 weeks (July 26). I'm so nervous; never had surgery before. Saw the nutritionist today. Apparently the only pre op diet I need to follow is low carb, high protein. What are some things you wish you'd known before surgery?


FuXi is a New Interface for Music Expression (NIME) and live-visuals generator based on the behaviour of a fish. The system (Fig. 1) is comprised of 1) an aquarium with a fish; 2) a computer vision module including a USB Camera, 3) a visual display of the fish's image overlaid by graphical elements produced by the performer, 4) a sound generator module and 5) a set of hardware devices for controlling the system. The music and visual expression are a combination of the fish movements and decisions taken by the performer in real time, together contributing to the audiovisual piece being delivered to the audience. The system is mostly a reactive system, with logical components responsible for the sonification process, while the performer responds to the fish behaviour by triggering and tweaking semi-autonomous processes. Therefore, the fish has a decisive impact on the development of the piece, being crucial that optimal environmental conditions (water temperature, feeding, cleanness) are observed during the performance. The musical aesthetics tends to soundscape composition, noise, electroacoustic and improvised music.


Rina, 16 years girl, has a 3-month-old girl child. Her husband, working as labour at a factory, is 17 years old. Rina was married at the age of 15, so as her mother.
Her parents wanted Rina to marry with someone at an early age and have a baby, so that she wouldn't have to live by herself. Rina couldn't deny her parent's decision.


On Wednesday 20th March, year 3 all went on a trip to the Mill Adventure Base. We had great fun trying out lots of different activities. The activities included: zipwire, climbing wall, archery, low ropes and tunnels.
The children really made us proud with our well they represented the school and how they were resilient in the face of new challenges. The children were also proud of themselves for giving things a go that they had never done before.
Reading homework will be given out every Friday and is expected in the following Wednesday.
Creative homework will be given out at the start of each half term and is expected in during the last week before the half term break. This homework will be linked to the current topic.
Children will be tested on their spellings every Friday. Children will take spellings home that must be learnt during the week.
Reading books should be taken home every day for them to read independently or with an adult as frequently as possible.
This term, PE is continuing to be on a Wednesday. We are now doing more PE outdoors as the weather is nicer so please ensure your children have appropriate kit for this.
Swimming will be continuing until the end of the term. After Easter, swimming will not be continuing.
Reading homework is sent out every Friday and should be returned to school for the following Wednesday. If children fail to hand their homework, they will complete it at play time.
Children should have their reading packs in school every day.
Creative homework is sent out once every half term. Please see the documents above to find the most recent homework sheet.
Spellings are sent out every Friday to be tested the following Friday.
Spelling homework will be handed out some weeks.
We really appreciate all of your support at home.
You will find more information about this trip in the letter which shall be handed out and it can also be found on the letters section of this page.
Times Tables Rock Stars A game for children to practise their times tables. Children all have their own logins for this.
Time Games A really useful one! Helping children to learn the time.
