La Corona és un mas al terme municipal de Sant Quirze Safaja (Moianès) catalogat a l'Inventari del Patrimoni Arquitectònic de Catalunya.

Situació
Està situada al nord-est del poble de Sant Quirze Safaja, a la part central de la Serra de Barnils. És al sud-oest de les masies de Serracarbassa i de Serratacó, a la mateixa carena de la serra, entre el límit del terme municipal, al nord-oest, i el torrent de l'Espluga, al sud-est.

S'hi accedeix pel Camí de Barnils, que surt del costat mateix de l'església parroquial de Sant Quirze Safaja, a l'extrem de llevant i més enlairat del poble, i s'adreça cap al nord-est pujant en amples revolts per anar a cercar l'extrem sud-oest de la Serra de Barnils i, des d'allí, seguir la carena de la serra. Així, en poc més de 2 quilòmetres arriba a la masia de la Corona.

Al nord i nord-oest de la masia, en el vessant de ponent de la Serra de Barnils, s'estén la Quintaneta de la Corona.

Descripció
Edifici aïllat de cos rectangular amb cossos afegits, els quals formen un pati tancat davant la façana de la casa. Davant la casa i aïllada, hi ha la pallissa, amb porxo afegit, i entre la casa i la pallissa es troba l'era. Pedres angulars a les cantonades. Casa de planta baixa, pis i golfes. La teulada és a dues aigües. Algunes finestres amb llinda de pedra, altres amb forma d'espitllera. A la façana hi ha la porta d'arc de mig punt dovellada i protegida per un petit porxo. Al damunt hi ha una finestra amb llinda de pedra en la que hi ha esculpit un petit arc conopial. Datació feta per estil, seguint els models típics de finestra.

What's the Most Underappreciated Casino in Las Vegas?
When I posed this question on the most recent podcast episode, I knew the savvy listeners would focus on the right thing: value. It's why none of the responses I received mentioned a Strip property. Tallying up the votes, you've all determined that El Cortez is the most underappreciated casino in Las Vegas right now.
El Cortez isn't exactly a hotbed of fine dining and exclusive nightlife. But, we're all pretty shrewd Vegas visitors, so most of us know how good El Cortez is for stretching the gambling dollar. That's what matters for most of us. We have to remember that we are not like the rest of the typical Vegas tourists, some 40M + a year. We, more than most, know how to navigate the city to maximize value. El Co allows us to do exactly that. The casino has several different games and banks of video poker above a 99% payback. It also has one of the, if not, the best $5 blackjack game in town.
.19% – On average, overtime, If played correctly, the casino will expect to win 19 cents for every $100 played.
That's the house edge on the single deck, 3:2, double on any 2 cards, $5 minimum blackjack game at the El Cortez.
If Jesus was a gambler he would have played this game. If it were on a strip resort for $5 minimum there would NEVER be an open seat.
This alone is what makes the El Cortez the most underappreciated casino in Las Vegas.
Two things scare the mainstream crowd away from the El Cortez and they really shouldn't. The first being the local crowd persona with heavy smoke. The second being that the best BJ game in the house is a "pitch" game which intimidates casual blackjack players.
El Cortez is doing a lot to help their image. The vintage but classy feel is the new norm as they try to mitigate the negative persona of the "for locals" appeal. The smoke is what is is and it's going to be at every downtown casino.
As far as the pitch game, give it 10 minutes to learn if you have never played it before. You may never want to go back to playing face up. The way you hold the card or casually flip your busted cards over. It adds an entirely new element to the game.
El Co has some of the more "creative" promotions and is making strides to improve its food and beverage offerings with both Pizza Lotto and Imbibe Bar. However, make no mistake, you're not going to rub shoulders with pretty models or be able to show off your bottle service ordering skills. And, sure, it takes a bit of a walk to reach this smoky establishment. Once there, though, you'll find great, inexpensive gaming and drinks. I think we can all appreciate that. On the other hand, feel free to visit lottoz uk.

While filling out forms to renew my Canadian status, I realized five years ago today (April 29, 2008) I became a Canadian permanent resident.
It sounds funny when someone has to renew a permanent status every five years, but I have learned and grown a lot from my years in Canada, for which I'm very thankful.
Kind of a big deal, but life moves on.

Forty-three percent of corporate decision makers expect an increase in travel risks in 2019, according to a survey conducted in conjunction with BCD Travel SolutionSource® partner International SOS, a global risk management firm.
The good news is that the expectation of risk has dropped since 2018, when 52% of company decision makers predicted travel risks would increase, and 2017, when 57% foresaw greater threats to travelers.
But there's bad news, too. The survey, which will be discussed in detail during a free 2019 Risk Outlook webinar on Jan. 15, shows that companies aren't prepared for the kinds of travel risks emerging today.
Only a third of organizations cover cyber security in their travel policy.
Just over a quarter consider specific risks for female travelers.
Only 14% address risks associated with shared economy services for transportation and accommodation.
"Our research reveals that the evolving travel habits of the modern workforce are being overlooked by many organizations. Ensuring policies stay relevant to the needs of a modern workforce helps to keep your people safer and better informed," said Sally Napper, a security specialist at International SOS, which conducted the survey with U.K. market research firm Ipsos MORI.

A useful monitoring program requires repeated, standardized surveys conducted over time.
Each survey should yield precise and unbiased estimates of the number of individuals present in the population.
Collecting ancillary data (e.g., weather, habitat conditions) can identify possible causes of observed changes in population size.
By these standards, and despite many ongoing monitoring efforts, populations of many species in Vermont are not adequately monitored.
Species restricted to patchy or unusual habitats: grasslands, shrublands, boreal forest.
Species not amenable to survey by traditional methods and require specialized techniques: marshbirds, some aerial insectivores (swallows, swifts), woodpeckers, raptors, owls, nightjars.
The Atlas has a unified but flexible approach, and can provide valuable insights into distributional changes for most breeding species.
Distribution, although not a perfect index of abundance, is often a close correlate.
However, data are collected only every 25 years, and distributional changes are often a late, trailing indicator of population size.
Additional, specialized monitoring is needed to sufficiently track Vermont's bird populations.
Many programs can be coordinated and largely carried out by citizen scientists.

Slow Is Smooth and Smooth Is Fast — What Does It Mean?
September 15, 2022Healthmale, quotesby Cody Yurk1 Comment
"Slow is smooth and smooth is fast" is, to put it bluntly, a motto that doesn't make sense.
Convert it into the "if-then" format you might recognize from formal logic classes, and the saying means "slow is fast, if smooth".
"Slow is smooth, and smooth is fast" is counterintuitive. That is why this saying, often said to have started with the Navy SEALS and beloved in the martial arts and firearms communities is so widely misunderstood. It's also why it's so interesting.
What does the motto actually mean, though? You're not alone if you haven't worked it out yet.
Please keep reading to fix that and finally get to the bottom of this saying and discover how it's been used in popular culture. Hint: It's less mysterious than you might think, and you've probably already experienced the sentiment behind the motto yourself.
Slow Is Smooth; Smooth Is Fast Origin
What Does Slow Is Smooth, Smooth Is Fast Mean?
Historical Sayings Similar to Slow Is Smooth, Smooth Is Fast
What Does Slow Is Smooth, Smooth Is Fast Mean When Navy SEALS Say It?
Slow Is Smooth Smooth Is Fast Movie Quote
Slow Is Smooth Smooth Is Fast Shirt
The motto — or the philosophy, if you prefer — "slow is smooth and smooth is fast" is widely attributed to the US Navy SEALS. This elite special operations force operates in small units and always has to be ready for anything.
It's true that "slow is smooth and smooth is fast" is an integral part of the SEALS' modus operandi, but the motto is far older than the SEALS, which were only formally formed in 1962 started operating during the Second World War.
What do you need to know about the origins of this enigmatic saying?
It's not uncommon to hear the motto "slow is smooth, smooth is fast" in the gun community or among martial arts practitioners. Some entrepreneurs have adopted it, too.
What does it mean, though?
"Smooth" can be defined as done correctly or using perfect form, without any hurdles.
When learning a new skill, taking the time to go through all the steps to act correctly is essential. You pay attention to each phase, careful to get it right. That covers the "slow" part of the saying.
As we have previously covered this is often a great way to think about posing in bodybuilding competitions.
As you repeat the steps — 10, 100, 1,000, 10,000, a million times — you master them. You build skill. You make muscle memory. You get good. Slowly but surely, the action becomes automatic.
Slowly but surely, the action becomes second nature, one you can perform without thinking about.
You had to be slow to get it right, but the proper steps become ingrained over time. You'll get fast.
You'll be good enough that the action is smooth and fast solely because you took the time to get it right at the beginning. Your initial slowness allowed for speed over time and ensured you'd be smooth.
The Navy SEALS might have been the first to use the exact words "slow is smooth and smooth is fast", but they weren't the first to come up with the idea. This motto's core message is more or less written into human nature, so it's no surprise that other sayings convey the same meaning.
Augustus Caesar, the first Roman Emperor and great military strategist, can be credited for the saying "festina lente" or "make haste slowly". He also said, "sat celeriter fieri quidquid fiat satis bene", meaning "that which was done well was done quickly enough". Both convey similar meanings.
The standard English saying "practice makes perfect" gets at the same thing but neglects to mention that the practice has to be done right for the outcome to be perfect.
Napolean said: "Dress me slowly; I am in a hurry."
"Slow is smooth, smooth is fast" means that taking the time to master the fundamentals results in the best possible outcome.
It's obvious how the SEALS, who must be prepared for combat in any situation, would live by this motto. It's equally clear why it would matter to firearms enthusiasts and martial artists.

Science Speaks Volumes
Filed in - Training Theory
Five graduate students from the University of North Texas (UNT) presented their research last May at the annual meeting of the Association for Behavior Analysis in Atlanta. Over 2,000 behavior analysts from all over the world attend this meeting. The students prepared their work under the auspices of their professor, Jesús Rosales-Ruiz of the UNT department of behavior analysis, who is also a popular member of the ClickerExpo faculty.
Students presented their original clicker-related research in a symposium and in poster sessions. Studies included the effects of the so-called poisoned cue (resulting from the introduction of correction procedures in otherwise positively trained behavior) in dogs; a method of using negative reinforcement to reduce aggression in dogs; a use of the clicker in teaching animals such as cows and horses to tolerate being approached; and a study of variability of clicking and reinforcement.
Dr. Rosales-Ruiz reported that a packed crowd of interested professionals filled the room, sat on the floor, and jammed the doorway. This innovative research has potential applications for many areas of human learning and teaching. The abstracts of Dr. Rosales-Ruiz' students are presented below.
Some Detrimental Effects of Combining Positive and Negative Reinforcement During Training
NICOLE BYRD (University of North Texas)
Jesús Rosales-Ruiz (University of North Texas)
Abstract: Karen Pryor suggests that a cue, or SD, established with a combination of negative and positive reinforcement leads to the breakdown of the behavior both preceding and following the cue due to an increase in avoidance behaviors and the uncertainty that exists in terms of the consequence that will follow. The purpose of this presentation is to compare the effects of combining negative reinforcement and positive reinforcement during training with the effects of using positive reinforcement alone. Two dogs served as subjects. Each dog learned the same behavior under two different stimulus conditions associated with two different training methods.
One method involved the presentation of the cue "ven," and the reinforcement of successive approximations to the target behavior. The other method involved the presentation of the cue "punir," the physical prompting of the target behavior by pulling the leash, and the delivery of a reinforcer. Differences in the behavior between the two conditions are documented, as well as differences in the stimulus functions of "ven" and "punir."
Transition from Negative to Positive Reinforcement during Shaping Cows' Approach to Humans
MELISSA MOREHEAD (University of North Texas)
Abstract: Negative reinforcement can be a powerful tool for behavior analysts, yet it is often overlooked as a treatment method. Pryor (1999) outlines a method for approaching a "timid" animal using a combination of negative reinforcement and positive reinforcement. When the animal stands still, the human operates a clicker, and then retreats from the animal. Gradually, the human moves closer to the animal through the clicking and retreating shaping process. Once the human is standing close enough, food may be offered as a positive reinforcer, and the negative reinforcer is canceled out. The purpose of this study was to experimentally demonstrate the click-retreat technique with cows. A multiple-baseline design across subjects was used to test this technique. Results show that the click and retreat technique was effective. Results are discussed in terms of the difference between the click-retreat technique and systematic desensitization.
Aggression in Dogs: A Differential Negative Reinforcement Protocol
KELLIE S. SNIDER (University of North Texas)
Abstract: Aggression in dogs is a serious problem in the United States, with over 4,700,000 people bitten annually, and over 800,000 requiring medical treatment (K. Delise, 2002). Common aggressive behaviors seen in dogs include barking, chasing, lunging, snarling, growling, and biting. Many such behaviors are maintained by the removal or distancing of other people or dogs. The training protocol presented shows the effects of differential negative reinforcement on aggressive behavior of dogs. Aggressive dogs were tethered on six-foot leashes. An experimenter walked toward the dog until the dog performed an aggressive behavior. She stood still until the behaviors stopped, then walked away contingent upon a desirable behavior such as looking toward the owner, or turning away from the experimenter.
In subsequent approaches the experimenter stopped walking toward the dog before the point at which the dog had previously performed the behavior, and exited based on performance of a desirable behavior.
Proximity was systematically increased. If at any time the approach provoked aggressive behavior, the experimenter stopped and waited until the behavior ended before exiting. The aggressive behaviors diminished or were eliminated with as little as one hour of treatment with some dogs. Successful generalization occurred in several cases.
Effects of Unconditioned and Conditioned Reinforcement Ratios on the Behavior of Dogs: 1 to 1 vs. 1 to 2 (Applied Behavior Analysis)
KATHRYN KALAFUT (University of North Texas )
Michelle Lamancusa (University of North Texas )
Abstract: In the clicker training community it is a common practice to deliver a click (conditioned Sr+) and a treat (unconditioned Sr+) after every correct behavior. At the same time, some advocate the delivery of several clicks before a treat is delivered. There is much controversy over whether there is a difference in the effects of these two procedures. Recent research, however, has shown that the ratio has an effect on both the topography and frequency of behavior (Dunham, et. al., and Wennmacher, et. al., ABA 2005). Dunham at. al., studied the effects using a free-operant under FR1 as a baseline and Wennmacher, et. al., used two restricted operants under a FR1 schedule. The present research investigates the effects of these different reinforcement ratios using a free operant under a FR2. A multiple baseline across three dogs with reversals was used. After a baseline was established with a FR 2 schedule (clicking and treating after every two correct responses), each of the dogs correct responses was followed by a click, but reinforcement was only given after two correct responses were completed. Results are in progress.
Variability: Generalizations Across Stimuli and Contingencies (Experimental Analysis)
FRANCISCO MANUEL GOMEZ (Ideal Companion Canine Behavior)
Abstract: Variability as an operant has been evidenced in the behavior analytic literature over the last thirty years. The present study was designed to evaluate the generalization effects of programming a variability contingency on a dog's interaction with one object and generalization of variability across other objects and contingencies. A six-year-old Border Collie's interactions with four different objects were measured under two different contingencies:
ANY (where any physical contact with the object would be reinforced on an FR1) and VAR (where only the novel responses per trial would be reinforced). All four dog-object interactions were first studied under the ANY contingency. This contingency produced stereotyped responding of behavior with all objects. Then, one of the dog-object interactions was changed to VAR while the other three remained under the ANY contingency. The VAR contingencies yielded a marked decrease in stereotypic behavior and an increase in novel responses. Similar effects were also seen with the other object-dog interactions under ANY, where reinforcement criteria didn't require variable behavior. An analysis of variability of interactions in both VAR and ANY clearly show that novel topographies generate from the adduction of already existing behavior. There were no novel responses that lacked topographical elements of already trained behavior.
The Effects of Two Methods of Conditioning a Clicker on Behavior Variability During Training (TPC; Applied Behavior Analysis)
MICHELLE LAMANCUSA (University of North Texas)
Kathryn Kalafut (University of North Texas)
Abstract: The stimulus-stimulus contingencies to establish an event as a conditioned reinforcer are clear in the literature. However, the reinforcer-behavior contingency during the conditioning process is not clear or considered relevant.
In animal training, non-contingent reinforcement (NCR) has traditionally been used in clicker training. Recently it has been suggested that the contingency be response specific from the beginning of clicker conditioning. The purpose of this research is to determine the effects of two different methods of conditioning the clicker on behavior variability during training. The subjects were three dogs. In the first condition, the clicker is conditioned in the traditional way, beginning with non-contingent reinforcement (NCR) and then proceeding with reinforcement contingent on eye contact (the target response). In the second condition, clicking and reinforcement is contingent on eye contact without a previous NCR schedule. After establishing eye contact with reliability, a two-minute period of extinction is in place for each condition. Following extinction, differential reinforcement of any behavior is in effect. It is expected that pairing with NCR will produce increased variability as compared to the contingent pairing. Results will be discussed in terms of side effects resulting from the pairing procedures (i.e., prompt dependency). Results in progress.

We describe the characteristics of the 15 patients with fingolimod-associated progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) identified from the Novartis data safety base and provide risk estimates for the disorder.
The Novartis safety database was searched for PML cases with a data lock point of August 31, 2017. PML classification was based on previously published criteria. The risk and incidence were estimated using the 15 patients with confirmed PML and the overall population of patients treated with fingolimod.
As of August 31, 2017, 15 fingolimod-treated patients had developed PML in the absence of natalizumab treatment in the preceding 6 months. Eleven (73%) were women and the mean age was 53 years (median: 53 years). Fourteen of the 15 patients were treated with fingolimod for >2 years. Two patients had confounding medical conditions. Two patients had natalizumab treatment. This included one patient whose last dose of natalizumab was 3 years and 9 months before the diagnosis of PML. The second patient was receiving fingolimod for 4 years and 6 months, which was discontinued to start natalizumab and was diagnosed with PML 3 months after starting natalizumab. Absolute lymphocyte counts were available for 14 of the 15 patients and none exhibited a sustained grade 4 lymphopenia (≤200 cells/μL).
The risk of PML with fingolimod in the absence of prior natalizumab treatment is low. The estimated risk was 0.069 per 1,000 patients (95% confidence interval: 0.039-0.114), and the estimated incidence rate was 3.12 per 100,000 patient-years (95% confidence interval: 1.75-5.15). Neither clinical manifestations nor radiographic features suggested any unique features of fingolimod-associated PML.

vpadmana, how did Smt. DKP explain this? Could you elaborate please?
Experienced listener - going into raptures over good rendition, sticking to tradition etc.
Performing musician - Appreciating the level of expertise of the musician in maintaining purity, exploring fresh approach to ragas and laya, ability and expertise in performance, stage presentation etc.
Listeners involved in Bhakti - All the above experiences will be increased several folds in each of the category.
One can very well enjoy without being a believer. The experience would be limited. That is all .
How can any one state with certainty that Bhakti or any other factor is essential to appreciate CM ?
If you read my post carefully, I did not claim that Bhakti is essential to appreciate CM. I chose my words carefully and deliberately. I said "full" appreciate, not just appreciate. I said "I think" there is a mystical level of appreciation that one gets.
I am not stating things in black & white; more like shades of gray - and with good reason. I absolutely know how personal some of these emotions are and that there's no right or wrong answer to the question.
I will try and narrate to the best of my memory (there are portions in Tamil, hope you don't mind).
It was a very interesting experience. I was visiting her (I am related through marriage) a few years back in Kotturpuram. Ishwar Iyer mama was sitting outside reading Hindu paper. After paying respects to him, I went inside to meet Pattammal (everyone fondly calls her that - from the very young to the very old).
After pleasantries were exchanged, she asked me if I was still singing and practicing my violin. I said, Yes. So she asked me to sing a song. I chose to sing Shri Mutthuswami Dikshitar's Kamakshi Shree Varalakshmi in Bilahari (as in your id .
She listened very carefully, nodding her head from side to side and gently keeping talam with her hands. There was a subtle smile on her face when I missed a sangati and an appreciative nod when I got a complex gamakam right.
At the end, she asked if I understood the meaning of the song. I said that I understood the meaning to a large extent. She asked what I was thinking about when I was singing and I said, "Honestly, I was thinking about how not to make a bad mistake in front of you!"
Your experience with DKP is moving. Thank you for posting it.
The comment on Bhakti was included my post just as a general statement. I had been following the TMK threads and had been wanting to make a comment on that and it happened in the present instant ! It had nothing to do with your statement. I sorry for creating a misunderstanding.
My experience is similar to yours. I feel that bhakti can come to us only if Divine Mother turns her Grace on us.
To this, she replied, "nee kamakshi ya dhyAnichindu pAdinA sangati thAnA varum. atha patthi nee kavalai pad vEndiyathu illai. TL Venkatrama Iyer thAn yenakku intha pAttta solli kudutthAr. appa nA ithe thAn panninEn. avar sonnAR, kAnchipuratthula irunthundu nee yEn kAmAkshi ya dhyAnichindu pAda mAttEngara? aduttha tharava nA manasula kAmAkshiya dhyAnichindu pAdinEn, Venkatrama Iyer ku kannula thanniyE vanthudutthu. Yethukku sollavarEnnA, yenna namba sAdhagam pannAlum, bhagavAna dhyAnichindu pAdinA, athOda tripthiyE thani."
vpadmana, thank you for recounting your meeting with DKP. She does have a very good point!
Dear sramaswamy, thanks for posting the translation.
click on the image-You can hear the song.
A week before there were lots of ads for this concert , like 5 days to go, ... 3 days to go, 1 day to go. I was wondering about the concert , here is the review of BJ's concert.
She is a melodious singer over which there is no doubt..
Whether she she loves God or Raga or wants to be a rasika....we always love her music..But what she has done for rasikas?
Are there any concerts of her available for us..for free..??
Her name does not appear in Sp archives...which were removed on her request..if I remember correct..
I do have some of her songs possibly downloaded earlier to her request for removal..
I am not sharing them..
She is more commercial minded..no offense meant..
There are some songs here from an album..


Here are the eleven boardgames that I played more than thrice during 2018. The year's total was 74 different games.
As always, the games on the list are mostly short ones that you can play repeatedly in one evening. But my new acquisitions Gaia Project and Tichu are way longer, full-evening games. All eleven highly recommended!
Dear Reader, what was your biggest boardgaming hit of 2018?
Stats courtesy of Boardgame Geek. And here's my list for 2017.

On paper, restaurant week is a great idea. If you haven't heard of restaurant week, it's a week out of the year where the restaurants of a community offer special prices and menus to drive people to local dining establishments.
Pretty cool, right? Eat local! Spend local! I'm for it.
Until the restaurants and organizers of restaurant week try to execute the event online. What happens is the organizers cobble together a horrible looking website using every font available in their publishing platform, hastily throw up a Facebook page and attempt – but fail – to provide prospective diners with the necessary information.
I'm not talking about the dates and the list of restaurants themselves. What I'm talking about is what every diner who searches for a restaurant online is looking for: the special restaurant week-only menu.
Aside from reviews on Facebook and Yelp, the menu is a key factor in the decision making process for which establishment gets our money. What are you serving? Do I like it? Will my friends/kids/family/co-workers who have gluten-free/picky eating/vegetarian issues be able to enjoy anything on your menu?
For some reason, restaurant week event organizers don't get this, and they link to everything else besides the menu in their Facebook posts. They link to the Facebook pages of participating restaurants, the restaurants' homepages, and their aforementioned terrible event website. All the links on the event's website are also typically to the participating restaurants' homepages. Although they did a good job reminding fans and posting delicious food photos, after post after post on one local restaurant week's Facebook page linked to everything but the menus.
Linking to the homepage of a restaurant does not bring me to the restaurant week menu because restaurants typically build a special page for it. The restaurant owners and workers and their marketing folks know where to find it – they spend every day on their website. But the prospective customers who may use restaurant week to try you out have no idea where that special menu is or how to get to it. They don't use your site every day, and they are not going to spend more than 2 clicks trying to find your menu.
So you're going to get a scenario like the one I experienced with my friends this week. We picked a day, and then chatted on Facebook messenger to find a restaurant we could all agree on. The local restaurant week's webpage listed the homepage of 18 participating restaurants. After a few tries of searching and failing to find the restaurant week menus, we decided to try the restaurant week of another nearby town. We found the same situation with the next town's website, and they had 42 restaurants listed. Who has the time or energy to look all over the interwebs to find the restaurant week menus of 42 restaurants?
Restaurant week fail. We gave up.
Do not make customers work to complete a call to action. They will give up.
So my point is this: If you want people to do something, link to the thing you want them to do. This is not just for restaurant week. This is for any marketing anyone does anywhere, no matter if you're doing it for an event or your business. Do not make people work to follow through on the call to action. It's that simple. You want people to come to your business. Make it easy for them to come to your business. You spend a lot of time and money on your websites and social media marketing. You want prospective customers to view all the pages of all the fabulous things you have to offer. I get it. Just get them there first. If they want to come back, and want to learn more by perusing your Facebook posts and website, they will.

Radio Harrow is a local charity radio station for Harrow, London, England, promoting health and wellbeing within the local community through its broadcasting and NHS befriending service. Registered charity number 1161203.

Charitable Objectives
The charity launched in April 2015 after two local broadcasters; Radio Northwick Park and Harrow Community Radio came together. The two organisations had previously worked in partnership over a number of years in the lead up to the creation of Radio Harrow, sharing broadcasts, volunteers, as well as Trustees and Directors. Now combined, the new organisation has 150 volunteers, two state of the art studios, a production area, equipment to enable it to broadcast via the Internet and FM waveband and the ability to produce outside broadcasts from anywhere within the London Boroughs of Brent, Harrow and Ealing.

The radio station engages with the general public by broadcasting a mix of local and regional information, which relates to the health and wellbeing of the local community and helps people shape their local area. It also provides a voice for local residents and organisation groups to make a positive difference to the community they serve and help make it a friendly and enjoyable place to live.

The objectives of the charity are:

 The relief of sickness, poor health and old age amongst people living in the London Boroughs of Brent, Harrow and Ealing by providing a local broadcasting service for hospitals, residential homes and similar institutions, and for patients receiving community care; and
 The advancement of health and prevention or relief of sickness for the public benefit through the promotion of the benefits of living a healthy lifestyle, and the importance of maintaining good personal mental and physical health by (mainly, but not exclusively) the means of broadcasting health education messages to people living in the London Boroughs of Brent, Harrow and Ealing.

As well as the new charitable objectives, there are several areas the charity focuses on, which centre around health and wellbeing within the community. These are:

 Broadcasting
 A Befriending Service
 Education
 Social Integration, and;
 Becoming the Voice for Harrow

The befriending service is provided to the London North West Healthcare NHS Trust. Currently concentrating on Northwick Park Hospital, the service is set to grow to the other hospitals the Trust covers, Ealing and Central Middlesex. The radio station is a member of the Hospital Broadcasting Association and Community Media Association.

History
Radio Harrow is the coming together of two organisations in Harrow. Radio Northwick Park and Harrow Community Radio.

Radio Northwick Park (known as RNP) was a Hospital Radio charity run by volunteers to provide patient visiting and a broadcast entertainment service to the North West London Hospitals NHS Trust. In the 44 years of its existence it grew in strength and became one of the first hospital radio stations in the UK to broadcast 24 hours a day and online. The volunteers visited over 15,000 patients a year to help make their stay in hospital as comfortable and enjoyable as it can be and then broadcast back personalised shows in the form of a daily request show, alongside their regular broadcasting, aimed at entertaining the patients.

RNP was founded by a group of volunteers from the Jewish Youth Voluntary Service, who set up a hospital radio service at Harrow Hospital on Roxeth Hill. With no room for a permanent studio, programmes were only broadcast on Sundays and volunteers installed and dismantled the equipment weekly. In 1971 a permanent studio was built in the basement of the new Northwick Park Hospital and RNP went on air in April 1971. During their existence they regularly became the radio of choice for patients to listen to, beating rivals such as BBC Radio and London commercial stations.

Harrow Community Radio (known as HCR) was a not for profit Community radio in the United Kingdom setup in 2010 to engage with those who live and work in the local community. It acted as a platform for the community to have a voice, which may not otherwise have been heard. In the five years of its existence it created firm ties with the local authority, businesses, community, charity groups and educational institutions, to become the go to people to host community events and summer schemes. It ran a full 28-day Restricted Service Licence, broadcasting over FM and not just via the Internet.

New and Improved
Just like the rest of campus, Amon Carter Stadium is getting a makeover – a $13 million makeover. The Walsh Complex in the south end zone area of the stadium is currently under construction to add more luxury suites and seating, said Austin Commercial project manager Brian Andrews. HKS, Inc., an architecture engineering interiors company, and Austin Commercial are working together on the project known as the Athletic Complex Renovation, Andrews said.
"So far we have renovated 10,000 square feet of the Walsh Complex," Andrews said. "But, with the addition of the new facilities outside of Walsh, there will be a total of 28,500 square feet added to the stadium."
Davis Babb, associate athletics director for development, said the reason for the new addition was made based on fan amenity.
"The idea to add the addition was made due to the interest of TCU and the donors," Babb said. "With the addition of the suites, we have the opportunity to have game day usage for the fans, as well as the educational resources for the school with the study rooms."
Jerry Fawcett, senior vice president for HKS, Inc., said the upper level of the addition will have six luxury suites and below will be a seating deck for 220 club seats. A private club will also be added.
"The private club will be a large room with food and beverage service," Fawcett said. "It will be available to patrons who have paid for access into Amon Carter or Daniel-Meyer Coliseum, as well as TCU football and basketball players before or after their games."
But the players don't have to worry about having to share space with TCU fans. Fawcett said the addition will also have a player's club where players can work on other activities besides football.
"The player's club will serve as a place where the football team can relax and hang out," Fawcett said. "It will consist of multiple television monitors, so the team can watch TV or play video games."
When the players hit the books, they will be able to make their way to the new academic space located in the facility. Fawcett said there will be seven tutor rooms with computers as well as office space.
The new addition will not just be available to the football and basketball teams. Fawcett said there will be a large meeting room that could be used for other athletic and campus organizations.
The Athletic Complex Renovation is scheduled to be completed by summer 2008, Andrews said.

Cuba: Airs of Celebration in Havana
Date: SEP 30, 2019 Other Reports
Havana, Cuba's major city and an important tourist destination, is hosting an extensive program of celebrations for the 500th anniversary of its foundation.
Publications of the most diverse nature give an account of Cuba's, with options for all visitors.
Recently, as a new element, the British travel magazine Time Out published a list of the most attractive neighborhoods in the world and included Old Havana in the 39th position.
The publication stressed that with its arranged squares, irregular buildings, baroque churches, open-air cafés, great bars, shops, galleries and creative neighborhoods, Old Havana is a place that attracts visitors.
Time Out highlighted neighborhoods, areas and cities whose star is on the rise and in which travelers can feel like locals, as well as discover the best of art, culture, food and drinks in the city.
The Cuban capital, once the village of San Cristobal de La Habana, is one of the most faithful exponents of the colonial architecture in the country, marked by a notoriety that began in the late 16th century, with its own characteristics but with a strong Spanish influence.
In that environment, its system of fortresses, with the emblematic Castillo de Los Tres Reyes del Morro (Morro Castle), consists of nine large constructions that constitute - according to experts - the most notable group of its kind in the Hispanic Americas.
Among those buildings, the Castillo de la Real Fuerza (completed in 1577) paved the way in the continent to Renaissance design in military constructions, with a style that prevailed in Spain during the time of the Catholic Monarchs and that was also called Elizabethan.
Likewise, about 140 of the buildings located in the historic heart of the capital were constructed in the 16th and 17th centuries, another 200 belong to the 18th century and more than 460 are from the 19th century, thus creating a full mix of attractions.
Dozens of properties from earlier times are located in Havana's historic heart, including the Capitol, the second highest point in the Cuban capital.
Originally intended as the headquarters of the Congress of the Republic, it was built in about three years. It has some 26,000 square meters of gardens designed by French urbanist Jean Claude Forestier, with walks, sidewalks, benches and 100 lamps.
There are several renowned places in Havana, with special emphasis on the Arms and Cathedral squares, the so-called Old Square and that of Saint Francis of Assisi, the latter is adjacent to the church and convent of the same name.
The city also has distinctive features such as the famous Paseo del Prado (Prado Promenade) and the well-known Alameda de Paula (Paula Promenade), the latter was built in the second half of the 18th century. Both places were favorite spots for the capital's inhabitants at the time.
In the city, buildings from the Renaissance to art deco, passing through Mudejar, Baroque, Neoclassicism, Eclecticism, Art Nouveau and Cuban Baroque are together.
Many of the buildings and historic sites, in perfect condition and almost without showing the trace of time on its façades and walls, open their doors as a safe destination for the thousands of holidaymakers who spend their vacations in the Cuban capital every year.

As we seek to respond to God's movement in our life, groups and ministries shift and work differently. Here's a snapshot of some of the more active groups in our midst at the moment!
Nativity has a dynamic and exciting Sunday School program for school-aged children up to 12 years of age. Under the enthusiastic leadership of several dedicated parishioners, the children learn more about God and Jesus through a wide range of inviting, hands-on activities.
The Canterbury Room is supervised by our capable teacher and nursery co-ordinator, Ms. Laura Green, and is and equipped for families with infants and toddlers during the 10 a.m. service. It's available but unsupervised at 8:30.
Mothers' Union is part of a worldwide organization of 3 million women in 70 countries. Meeting on the first Monday of the month, through action and prayer the Mothers' Union supports children, marriage, and family life. In particular, the Mothers' Union chapter at Nativity supports an orphanage in Madagascar off the coast of Africa, as well as helping clergy families in the far north. It is not necessary to be a mother to be part of the Mothers' Union!
The "Bag Ladies" are a group of women who meet on the second Monday of the month from September to June. After a brown-bag lunch (hence the name "Bag Ladies"), there's a guest speaker or a social time. The Bag Ladies run various various fund raising projects, including Penny Sales. Many people join in the parish's annual Palm Project, which supplies area churches with palm fronds and crosses for Palm Sunday. The ladies knit and crochet various articles for area nursing homes and St. Matthew's House, and our work supports outreach in the community.
The Tuesday Men work hard, caring for the physical building of the Nativity. Meeting Tuesday mornings, they keep the plant in tip-top shape through work like painting, installing new lights, minor renovations, and repairs. A coffee break at 10:30 is always a highlight, and you don't have to like the TiCats to come out—it just helps!
For more than three years, the Nativity has been running a community lunch on the third Friday of the month. Over a nutritious hot lunch, people who live and work in the neighbourhood gather for conversation and socializing. It's become a great hub of community. Dates are posted on our calendar, and there are some fun seasonal variations, like our Pancake Lunch on Shrove Tuesday each year and the not-to-be-missed Strawberry Shortcake in June!
The Outreach Committee is committed to "reaching out" to both our Church of the Nativity family and to the wider community through programs to aid St. Matthew's House, participation in the breakfast programme at McQueston Centre, and visitation to shut-ins among others. From Sock-it-to-Me Sunday to Soup-er Bowl Sunday and open to all manner of new ideas, they strive to help Nativity enter into new relationships with the communities around us.
The Church of the Nativity has a wonderful choir, whose musical ministry is supported by Nativity's Music Director, Mr. Peter Harding. Practices are held weekly on Thursday nights, and special anthems and songs are prepared for the parish on many occasions during the year. A special highlight is our annual Advent Carols and Lessons service in December!
This behind-the-scenes group of dedicated people prepare the altar for our Sunday and mid-week Eucharists. They also prepare the church for special services, such as weddings, baptisms, and funerals.
Flowers are placed at the altar each Sunday by members of the congregation, usually in memory of loved ones, as a thank offering or to commemorate a special event in their lives.
You'll be surprised to learn that Welcomers welcome people as they arrive, help them find nametags or make one, and make sure that people receive copies of the order of service. Welcomers also assist people at Communion, and make sure that the service runs smoothly.
Readers are similarly well-named, proclaiming the portions of scripture we hear during the service.
Lay Readers assist the clergy by providing leadership in the liturgy, and one of the lay readers proclaims the gospel at 10 o'clock.
Intercessors lead the community in the prayers of the people, as we offer our thanks and concerns to God in prayer.
Communion Ministers assist with the administration of Communion during worship services.
Servers provide assistance during the worship services: from carrying the cross or the torches to helping prepare the altar, they have a vital role.
Each Sunday, after the 10 a.m. service, all members of the congregation are invited to stay for coffee, tea, and fellowship in the downstairs hall. This is a wonderful opportunity for people of the parish to volunteer to make and serve the refreshments. Washing up afterwards is quick and easy, and often attracts even more volunteers who come and chat.
Catering consists of a team of ladies, with generous support from Church members, who cater lunches for funeral receptions and other events.
A committee to decorate the church for special celebrations including Christmas, Easter, and Thanksgiving, offers a time for fellowship and fun while helping Church of the Nativity "dress up" for special events.
Cursillo (pronouced "Kur-see-yo") is a Spanish word which means "a short course"—one in Christian living. A method of renewal in the church, Cursillor strives to help those in the church understand their individual callings to be Christian leaders. Faith, study and action are the three legs of the Cursillo method. This leadership may be exercised in work situations, the family, social life, leisure activities as well as in the church.
Cursillo begins with a three-day weekend retreat where 15 talks in Christian living are given. After the weekend, Cursillo aims to help Christians maintain their faith through regular meetings in small (parish), medium (regional) and large (diocesan) gatherings. Those interested in finding out more are encouraged to attend the gatherings.
Nativity has well-established ecumenical ties with other Christian churches in the area. Of particular note are our area Lenten services, where the different Christian communities gather for combined worship services and fellowship on Wednesday evenings. The choirs from each of the congregations join in presenting music for their events.
The World Day of Prayer is observed each year in March.


The Timeline is now updated to show up through May 18th. This allows us to more clearly see the scope of upcoming major events such as Israel's 71st anniversary (marking the end of after 70 years, Jer. 29:10), as well as the 50th year since the decree for Jerusalem to be rebuilt (marking end of 49 years/7 weeks). It should not surprise us that both of these anniversary windows are essentially a day or two apart!!

La plaza del Cordón es una plazuela de Madrid, en el barrio de Palacio, del distrito Centro. Confluyen en ella las calles de San Justo, Doctor Letamendi, la de Sacramento, y la homónima del Cordón que desciende desde esta plaza hasta la calle de Segovia.

Historia

Aparece escrita como plazuela del Cordón y bien delimitada en el plano de plano de Texeira (1656), y más tarde en el de Antonio Espinosa de los Monteros de 1769. Se conservan antecedentes de construcciones particulares desde 1725. En el siglo  se ordenaba dentro del barrio de Puerta Cerrada, en el antiguo distrito de la Audiencia, como recoge Ángel Fernández de los Ríos, en su Guía de Madrid de 1876. Otro cronista madrileño, Pedro de Répide, la presenta como «paraje venerable y apacible», destacando en su entorno el balcón de la Casa de Cisneros y la perspectiva de la antigua iglesia de San Justo y Pastor, en la vecina calle de San Justo. Explica Répide que el recinto toma su nombre debido a la primitiva casa  , que fue cárcel para el secretario real Antonio Pérez, allí confinado por su rey, Felipe II. En la versión de Mesonero Romanos se detalla que Pérez tras haber sido retenido en la casa que ocupaba, propiedad de la familia Arias Dávila (condes de Puñonrostro) y demolida a mediados del siglo , fue condenado a prisión domiciliaria en la vecina Casa de Cisneros, de la que tras ser torturado y «con auxilio de su esposa la heróica (sic) doña Juana Coello y Bozmediano, logró escaparse de ella en la noche del Miércoles Santo 18 de marzo de 1590, marchando a sublevar en su favor al reino de Aragón, y ocasionando la famosa guerra que acabó con los fueros de aquel reino».

En el n.º 1 de la plaza se levanta el edificio conocido como casa del Cordón por el dibujo tallado que adorna su fachada; si bien conviene aclarar que este fue construido en la segunda mitad del siglo , mucho después de la primera Casa del Cordón madrileña, residencia de la varias veces mencionada familia Arias Dávila.

En uno de los edificios de la plazuela vivió el por tres veces alcalde de Madrid Alberto Aguilera, y vivió y murió el revolucionario Manuel Becerra. En el n.º 2 de la plaza vivió el escritor y crítico Eugenio D'Ors.

"The Old Rugged Cross" is a popular hymn written in 1912 by American evangelist and song-leader George Bennard (1873–1958).

History
George Bennard was a native of Youngstown, Ohio, but was reared in Iowa. After his conversion in a Salvation Army meeting, he and his wife became brigade leaders before leaving the organization for the Methodist Church. As a Methodist evangelist, Bennard wrote the first verse of "The Old Rugged Cross" in Albion, Michigan, in the fall of 1912 as a response to ridicule that he had received at a revival meeting. Bennard traveled with Ed E. Mieras from Chicago to Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin where they held evangelistic meetings at the Friends Church from December 29, 1912 to January 12, 1913. During the meetings Rev. George Bennard finished "The Old Rugged Cross" and on the last night of the meeting Bennard and Mieras performed it as a duet before a full house with Pearl Torstensen Berg, organist for the meeting, as accompanist. Charles H. Gabriel, a well-known gospel-song composer helped Bennard with the harmonies. The completed version was then performed on June 7, 1913, by a choir of five, accompanied by a guitar in Pokagon, Michigan, at the First Methodist Episcopal Church of Pokagon. Published in 1915, the song was popularized during Billy Sunday evangelistic campaigns by two members of his campaign staff, Homer Rodeheaver (who bought rights to the song for $50 or $500) and Virginia Asher, who were perhaps also the first to record it in 1921. The Old Rugged Cross uses a sentimental popular song form with a verse/chorus pattern in  time, and it speaks of the writer's adoration of Christ and His sacrifice at Calvary. Bennard retired to Reed City, Michigan, and the town maintains a museum dedicated to his life and ministry. A memorial has also been created in Youngstown at Lake Park Cemetery. A plaque commemorating the first performance of the song stands in front of the Friend's Church in Sturgeon Bay.

Influence
"The Old Rugged Cross" has been a country gospel favorite ever since it became the title song of Ernest Tubb's 1952 gospel album; it has been performed by some of the twentieth century's most important recording artists, including Al Green, Andy Griffith, Anne Murray, Brad Paisley, Chet Atkins, Chris Barber, John Berry, Floyd Cramer, George Jones, Eddy Arnold, Jim Reeves, Johnny Cash and June Carter, Kevin Max, Ella Fitzgerald, Mahalia Jackson, Jo Stafford, Gordon MacRae, Merle Haggard, Patsy Cline, Loretta Lynn, Ray Price, Ricky Van Shelton, Tennessee Ernie Ford, Rahsaan Roland Kirk, Roy Rogers and Dale Evans, The Oak Ridge Boys, The Statler Brothers, Vince Gill, Willie Nelson, Alan Jackson, George Beverly Shea and John Prine on the 2007 CD "Standard Songs for Average People" with Mac Wiseman.  British television dramatist Dennis Potter used the gospel song prominently in several of his plays, most notably Pennies from Heaven (1978); and the song also played a major part in "Gridlock" (2007), an episode of the long-running sci-fi drama series Doctor Who. In early 2009, the song was covered by Ronnie Milsap on his gospel album Then Sings My Soul.

Lyrics
On a hill far away, stood an old rugged Cross

The emblem of suff'ring and shame

And I love that old Cross where the dearest and best

For a world of lost sinners was slain

So I'll cherish the old rugged Cross

Till my trophies at last I lay down

I will cling to the old rugged Cross

And exchange it some day for a crown

Oh, that old rugged Cross so despised by the world

Has a wondrous attraction for me

For the dear Lamb of God, left His Glory above

To bear it to dark Calvary

So I'll cherish the old rugged Cross

Till my trophies at last I lay down

I will cling to the old rugged Cross

And exchange it some day for a crown

In the old rugged Cross, stain'd with blood so divine

A wondrous beauty I see

For 'twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died

To pardon and sanctify me

So I'll cherish the old rugged Cross

Till my trophies at last I lay down

I will cling to the old rugged Cross

And exchange it some day for a crown

To the old rugged Cross, I will ever be true

Its shame and reproach gladly bear

Then He'll call me some day to my home far away

Where His glory forever I'll share

So I'll cherish the old rugged Cross

Till my trophies at last I lay down

I will cling to the old rugged Cross

And exchange it some day for a crown

Media
In his art parody volume Art Afterpieces, Ward Kimball created a variation on the painting Expulsion from Paradise by the 15th-century artist Giovanni di Paolo, which shows God pointing at a large circle below him. Kimball centered the record label of The Old Rugged Cross, as published by Victor, on the circle in the picture, complete with the trademark of Nipper (His Master's Voice).

In On A Pale Horse, "The Old Rugged Cross" is played as the last request of a dying man.

In Series 3 Episode 3 (Gridlock) of Doctor Who, "The Old Rugged Cross" is broadcast to citizens of New New York as they traverse the motorway.

In Series 4 Episode 5 of Hetty Wainthropp Investigates, "The Old Rugged Cross" is sung by Hetty (played by Patricia Routledge) and a local male voice choir.

In the 2019 film Just Mercy, "The Old Rugged Cross" plays in the background as Herbert Richardson is executed.

In the 2021 SHOWTIME miniseries Dexter: New Blood Episode 9 "The Family Business" a version of the song performed by L Shape Lot can be heard playing in Elric Kane's vehicle as he drives Dexter to the remote cabin of Kurt Caldwell.

Scientists from the University of Granada found that olive pits can bind toxic metals like chrome from industrial sewage. Tanneries and galvanizing and painting industries produce metal tainted sewage which could benefit from this technology. Grenada is close to the province of Jaen which produces 10% of the worlds olive oil (and olive pits).

U.S. Plans Private Guard Force for Iraq
State Department Prepares to Hire 5,100-Strong Security Detail and Take Over Military Hardware for After Army Leaves
By Nathan Hodge
WASHINGTON—The State Department is preparing to spend close to $3 billion to hire a security force to protect diplomats in Iraq after the U.S. pulls its last troops out of the country by year's end.
In testimony Monday before the Commission on Wartime Contracting, Patrick Kennedy, undersecretary of state for management, said the department plans to hire a 5,100-strong force to protect diplomatic personnel, guard embassy buildings and operate a fleet of aircraft and armored vehicles.
Underscoring the security risks in Iraq, five American troops were killed Monday in an attack in Baghdad, the largest single loss of life for the U.S. military there since April 2009.
Fewer than 50,000 U.S. troops remain in Iraq. Under a 2008 U.S.-Iraqi security agreement, all U.S. troops are supposed to leave the country by the end of the year, leaving behind only a small military office to oversee arms sales.
While U.S. officials have expressed a willingness to station a small residual force in the country, it is unclear if the Iraqi government will make the request, which faces strong opposition in Iraq.

Universal Unleashes First Trailer For Horror Remake 'The Invisible Man' Starring Elisabeth Moss
Universal Pictures has now released its first trailer for the remake of The Invisible Man, based on the classic novel by H.G. Wells.
Writer/director Leigh Whannell (Upgrade, Saw franchise) and producer Jason Blum (Blumhouse) have partnered on the horror flick that stars Emmy-winner Elisabeth Moss (The Handmaid's Tale, Us).
Check out the new trailer below.
This new film is a bit of a pivot as it was originally going to star Johnny Depp and was going to be part of a relaunch of the Universal Monsters getting their own cinematic universe called Dark Universe starring with Tom Cruise's The Mummy remake.
When that film didn't do well with critics or at the box office they scrapped a bulk of the plans (everything planned seems to be hiatus) and looked to Jason Blum/Blumhouse to help them out with The Invisible Man.
I'm sure we'll have to see how this one does before we see Blumhouse getting involved with other projects featuring the Universal Monsters.
What you can't see can hurt you. Emmy winner Elisabeth Moss (Us, Hulu's The Handmaid's Tale) stars in a terrifying modern tale of obsession inspired by Universal's classic monster character. Trapped in a violent, controlling relationship with a wealthy and brilliant scientist, Cecilia Kass (Moss) escapes in the dead of night and disappears into hiding, aided by her sister (Harriet Dyer, NBC's The InBetween), their childhood friend (Aldis Hodge, Straight Outta Compton) and his teenage daughter (Storm Reid, HBO's Euphoria). But when Cecilia's abusive ex (Oliver Jackson-Cohen, Netflix's The Haunting of Hill House) commits suicide and leaves her a generous portion of his vast fortune, Cecilia suspects his death was a hoax. As a series of eerie coincidences turns lethal, threatening the lives of those she loves, Cecilia's sanity begins to unravel as she desperately tries to prove that she is being hunted by someone nobody can see.
Jason Blum, our current-day master of the horror genre, produces The Invisible Man for his Blumhouse Productions. The Invisible Man is written, directed and executive produced by Leigh Whannell, one of the original conceivers of the Saw franchise who most recently directed Upgrade and Insidious: Chapter 3.
The Invisible Man is set to be released on February 28th, 2020.
