Lecture 25: Who Were Westcott & Hort?

Course: Textual Criticism

Lecture: Who Were Westcott & Hort?

A. Brook Westcott

In this lecture, we will look at Westcott and Hort and their dethroning of the Textus Receptus. Both of these people were Cambridge trained scholars of the late 19th century. We will consider them both personally and academically to see what they had accomplished. We begin with Brook Westcott who was born in 1825 and lived until 1901; trained at Cambridge University in classical Greek and Latin. At the age of 24, he began teaching at Cambridge. He was a voluminous writer who wrote on the Gospels, one such was a commentary on the Gospel of John which is still used today. He also wrote commentaries on Hebrews and other literature and extensively on the deity of Christ and his resurrection. His books on the canon of the New Testament on the history of the English Bible are still classics today. And of course, with Hort, he produced a Greek New Testament that has stood the test of time. In 1870, he became the Regius Professor of Divinity at Cambridge University. A professor in the UK system, there is only one professor in each department, but in the American system, everyone can be a professor or associate professor or assistant professor. To be on faculty in the UK system, you are called a fellow and to be the head of the department you are called a professor and usually, it’s a chair. So he was the Regius Professor of Divinity. He was broadly evangelical, very strong on Christ’s deity and resurrection and even as strong on the Bible being our final authority.

B. F.J. Hort

Then there was F.J. Hort, born in 1828. Was born three years later and died nine years earlier. He was born in Dublin and was the Hulsean Professor of Divinity and later became the Lady Margaret Professor of Divinity at Cambridge, which was a huge honor. Recently they celebrated their 500th anniversary of having a Lady Margaret Professor of Divinity there at Cambridge. A person who was very influential in my life was E.F.D. Moule who was the Lady Margret Professor of Divinity at Cambridge. He was not an evangelical but instead a moderate who was passionate about the Deity and bodily resurrection of Christ. We would write letters to each other with him often using multiple languages. He memorized the Greek New Testament like others such as C.H. Dodd. Hort was an exacting scholar, but he was prone to leave scholarly works unfinished. He produced a commentary on James unfinished and on other books, all unfinished, but he did finish his text of the New Testament and in 1881 and 82, he and Westcott published the New Testament in the original Greek with an introduction and appendix which became a landmark in text-critical studies. It wasn’t the first Greek New Testament to depart from the Textus Receptus. That had been done fifty years earlier by Karl Lachmann. This was the first one where they systematically laid out their principles in such a coherent way that in twenty-eight years of work, he was able to articulate the method of textual criticism in fifty-four pages. You really have to read this as it is so succinct that it can’t be made any briefer.

C. Dean John Burgon

It didn’t have apparatus. They didn’t collate manuscripts and they didn’t do the labor that Tischendorf and Tragellis and some of the others had done of collecting variants. They stood on the shoulders of these giants and produce a text that they thought was the original. Their second volume gave the rationale for it. They came significantly closer to the original text of the New Testament than their predecessors. They just didn’t do the labor that got them there relying on the work of others instead. Their New Testament was the eye of the storm in terms of a theological emotional reaction by a number of people. There was a strong reaction from Dean John Burgon, Dean of Chichester England and later by King James only advocates such as Edward F. Hills and David Waite, the president of the Burgon Society. There was a strong reaction by Dean Burgon against Westcott and Hort. Burgon was a champion of lost causes, once giving a lecture on why women shouldn’t have a college education, on the day that women were admitted to Oxford University. One of these people who were rigidly fundamentalist and yet he too was an incredible scholar. Beginning with Burgon, there were ad hominem attacks, against the person rather than against their arguments. Burgon went all over Europe and the Middle East to find manuscripts to prove that the Textus Receptus or something close to it was the original text. He did an amazing amount of work. He actually produced the text of the Church Fathers through the first several centuries finding 86,000 quotations written in a multi-volume set that was never published. In the 20th century, the followers of Burgon, many of them very vicious against others, saying things like Westcott had denied the deity and resurrection of Christ. They said that Hort denied all sorts of cardinal doctrines. They also claimed that Westcott and Hort were even involved with the occult which of course wasn’t true.

D. Gale Riplinger

An extreme example of Textus Receptus only people is Gale Riplinger or G.A. Riplinger who wrote the book, New Age Bible Versions in 1993. The cover was all black with a devil’s tail somewhere on it. There were tens of thousands of copies sold with hundreds of churches that abandoned modern translations going back to the King James because they thought all of those translations were the work of conspirators. In my opinion, the book was the most sloppily put together book on textual criticism that I have ever read. One of the things that she is famous for is the use of ellipses, the triple dots where she quotes from somebody and only finishes the quote later in a different context. So, the quotes were out of context. Her degree was in Home Economics and so I ask the question of how much scholarship did she have to do this kind of work. On the radio once, she said the reason she used G.A. Riplinger instead of Gale, was because it was co-authored by God; so it was God and Riplinger. I think she just didn’t want to be recognized as a woman who did this as it would have been questioned more by some of her conservative followers to reject it. One of the things she does in the book, she used B.F. Westcott instead of W.W. Westcott. The latter was indeed involved in the occult. A friend of mine contacted her about this and asked her whether she knew that it was a different person? W.W. Westcott was one of the founders of an occult group whereas B.F. Westcott was with a group that was investigating the occult instead for several years.

E. B.F. Westcott on the Occult

The conclusion by B.F. Westcott, not W.W. Westcott came to, was that the occult was a bunch of nonsense and even dangerous. The very first magazine of Borderland came out in 1893. It wasn’t a study of the occult but actually dedicated to the occult. They wanted to use B.F. Westcott’s name because he had investigated the occult. He wrote a letter to the editor telling the editor that the Holy Bible must be the supreme guide in examining anything spiritual. What I observed as spiritist activities constantly recorded in the Bible in regards to Satan; there isn’t the faintest encouragement to seek them. The case is otherwise, I cannot therefore regard every voluntary approach to beings such as those who are supposed to hold communications with people through mediums as unlawful and perilous. I find in the incarnation of Jesus all that man requires for life and hope. So, in this letter to the editor, he is affirming that Scripture is our final authority which is broadly evangelical. Then he says, ‘everything we need is in Jesus.’ Indeed, taking all the evidence together, it isn’t too much to say that there is no single historic incident better or more supported than the resurrection of Christ. So, this isn’t a person who is denying the resurrection. So, what about the deity of Christ? He talks about the deity of Christ so much and confirms it so much and therefore to suggest that he didn’t believe it would be to put blinders on and read sentences out of their context. These are from his commentaries on John and Hebrews which are still classic texts and still in print today. He said that Christ’s work would take away sins and was himself sinless. He says in Hebrews that the exalted king, namely Christ, who is truly man, is also above all finite beings. Christ is creator and heir of all things. Christ, the incarnate Word, is the perfect Revelation of the Father and as God, he reveals God. Westcott was not a liberal scholar.

F. Hort’s Orthodoxy and Roman Catholicism

What about Hort? It is much more difficult to determine what Hort believes because he published far less than Westcott and probably not as orthodox as Westcott. He seemed to have some leanings that went in some directions and what is ironic, he was considered a Papist by the King James only people. That is almost Roman Catholic because he said that the causes and results of worshipping Mary was similar to that of the causes and results of worshipping Jesus. So, they said therefore he had Papist leanings, almost Roman Catholic. It is ironic that they would charge him with this because Erasmus who put the Greek New Testament together which was the basis of the Textus Receptus was a Roman Catholic priest. We should not condemn the Textus Receptus because it was produced by a Roman Catholic; Luther didn’t, for that was the text that he used. The King’s James version translators didn’t because that was the text that was available at the time. Its merits need to be judged on historical grounds. So, the relevance of Hort’s views; regardless of their perhaps different doctrinal positions, Westcott and Hort worked together and they also worked with J.B. Lightfoot who was another member of the translation committee for the Revised Version of 1881. Lightfoot was a thoroughly orthodox scholar. It isn’t the personal views behind their work but the work itself that must be examined. When the King James only and Textus Receptus people argue against Westcott and Hort, this only reveals the weakness of their position because their arguments against the texts of Westcott and Hort don’t have much in that direction at all. Well, these two guys were so incredible in what they were able to produce. There were two volumes that I’ve already talked about, which were immediately claimed as a major advance in understanding the transmission of the New Testament. It was almost instantly a classic for people immediately recognized the power of what they were saying. Hort’s method for doing textual criticism for the New Testament has been applied in many different areas of classical studies because he was the first to clearly articulate this.

G. The Textus Receptus and the Byzantine Text

They used three basic arguments against the Textus Receptus and the Byzantine text. This is where we want to now go with this lecture. Their work of dethroning the Textus Receptus and the majority included three arguments. First, there were no distinctive Byzantine readings in the ante-Nicene Fathers. Neither do we find with the church fathers any textual variance that are found only in the Byzantine manuscripts and consequently this is evidence that the Byzantine text was later and must have come at a time after the Council of Nicaea. However, there are Alexandrian readings and western readings in the ante-Nicene Fathers; plenty of them. Secondly, Byzantine readings are not supported by intrinsic evidence, what the author would have done or transcriptional evidence; what a scribe would have done. Thus these readings are inferior. They said that the closer you looked the better the Alexandrian texts looked is what they were arguing. Then thirdly, only the Byzantine texts form conflates; the Alexandrian and Western always are the legs that the Byzantine conflations stand on. Never is the Byzantine text one of the legs. So if they conflate that, they combine two readings. They always have the combined readings but never the Western or Alexandrian have it. This shows that the Byzantine text is secondary. So, they argue that the Byzantine text is late and inferior and secondary and that three-fold cord isn’t easily broken. It not only dethroned the Textus Receptus but also the majority text or what is called the Byzantine Text. Now you get some majority texts advocates forcing themselves into the mix.

When they say that there is no distinctive Byzantine readings in the ante-Nicene Fathers, Dean Burgon responded by spending years working on the quotations by the church fathers and he comes up with 86,000 quotations of the early church fathers and thus tries to demonstrate that the Byzantine texts is indeed quoted by these church fathers. But there are a couple of problems with this; in many places, they say, ‘but as our Lord said.’ It doesn’t tell you whether it is Matthew, Mark, Luke or John. The wording may be identical to what is found in Matthew’s Gospel in the Byzantine texts or it could be identical to what is found in Mark’s Gospel in the Alexandrian texts. So Burgon just said that this was a Byzantine text, but there wasn’t anything demonstrated. The second point which is much more serious, he used the late manuscripts that were available; he didn’t do any critical work on them. Gordon Fee made the statement that the more you examine these church fathers, the earlier manuscripts you get, they always move away from the Byzantine texts; why would that be the case? Everybody admits that the Byzantine texts by the 9th century became the majority texts. It was kind of the ecclesiastical standard. So, if you are copying out a church father’s writings, what do you do? Typically there would Scripture texts in there some place and then you would get a commentary. So, what a scribe would often do apparently is to set aside the area for the Scripture and then he would go through it based on a manuscript that they knew; they would then copy out that manuscript. This is Origen’s commentary in John. Then they would copy out what Origen had to say and put it in the margins because they didn’t exactly know it. Many times what Origen says in his commentary doesn’t line up with the text they are commenting on because it is a Byzantine text. So when you look at the church fathers, frequently the texts of the fathers are far more important than the Scripture texts because that was done by later scribes.

H. Origen and the Byzantine Standard

I was just talking to a fellow at Birmingham University a few weeks back. He was studying at Dublin doing work on Origen. He said that he can’t believe how many medieval manuscripts just conform Origen’s texts to the Byzantine standard. Everyone knows, including majority text people that Origen did not follow the Byzantine texts. It is about pure as it gets in terms of following the Alexandrian. When it comes to no distinct Byzantine readings, Burgon says there are. Secondly, there are no distinctive reasons found because there are too few literary remains of ante-Nicene Byzantine fathers. The problem is there were plenty of church fathers who spent time in the Byzantine regions and would have become acquainted with those readings but never mention them. This suggests that the Byzantine text did not exist before Nicaea. The next point is that Byzantine readings are not supported by intrinsic evidence that an author has to say or transcription of which a scribe is likely to do. And the response has been that internal evidence has been too subjective to count or yes, these Byzantine readings are supported by this. Well, the internal evidence is somewhat subjective, but neither are manuscripts completely objective. There seems to be an almost cultic thinking that every manuscript must be the Word of God! No, instead, it is an errant copy of the inerrant Word of God. This is the case with all hand-written manuscripts. Every manuscript has mistakes in them. In many places, internal evidence isn’t subjective at all. It is what we know that the scribes did. Human psychology is the same today as it was back then; we know how people worked and if you spend an hour or two collating manuscripts, you see obvious mistakes. You know what scribes were about. So, in response that yes, these Byzantine readings actually do exist, I think that it is true. This is one area where Westcott and Hort were a little too hasty about. There are some Byzantine readings that are superior to Alexandrian readings. There are two passages in particular: Matthew 24:36 and Philippians 1:14. I have looked at Philippians 1:14 earlier and we will look at Matthew 24:36 in another lecture.

I. Philippians 1:14

In Philippians 1:14 you have, ‘and most of the brothers and sisters, having confidence in the Lord because of my imprisonment, now more than ever dare to speak the word fearlessly.’ You have those four great manuscripts that Dean Burgon felt were rather vile and done by heretics, but instead they add the Word of God. So, speak the ‘Word of God’ fearlessly. Scribes tended to add clarifying notes but here you have the Alexandrian manuscripts adding the clarifying notes. Later manuscripts add the Word of the Lord, but the Byzantine, the majority of manuscripts as well as P46, an early important Alexandrian manuscript adds nothing. P46 was not known in the day of Westcott and Hort. So they rejected the Byzantine readings as not being good; it has to be the ‘Word of God.’ The fact is, scholars today would say, no this is the place where the Byzantine texts almost by itself is clearer. I think it does happen on occasion. But there are no more than ten or twenty places. Finally, only the Byzantine texts form conflates is what Hort argued. The Alexandrian and the Western are always the legs that the Byzantine inflation stands on; never is the Byzantine one of the legs. This is their view of things; Hort’s genealogical argument, you have the autographs in the Alexandrian and Western text types, both done in the 2nd century and the Byzantine archetype done in the 4th century.

J. Luke 24:53

To show this, I will use a couple of illustrations. The second one will be more complex. We looked at Luke 24:53; the last verse of Luke, ‘and were continually in the temple courts blessing God.’ This has to do with blessing God or praising God or blessing and praising God. What we discovered is the Alexandrian manuscripts have praising and the Western has blessing whereas the Byzantine has praising and blessing. How do we know which is better between the Alexandrian and Western? Hort argues that the Alexandrian is a purer stream of transmission whereas the Western was carelessly done and I think most would agree with this. And P75, a very early manuscript of Luke and John now confirms that was what the Alexandrian reading was very earlier on. So, between those two readings, Alexandrian and Western; the Alexandrian is superior. But what is to say that the Byzantine isn’t authentic? Isn’t it possible that the Alexandrian and Western only wrote down half of the wording? Didn’t you have the text say blessing and praising God and the Alexandrian only picked up one half and the Western picked up the other half. Well, that is a possibility, but this text alone of all of Westcott and Hort’s illustrations could do that. There are no others that could do that. I chose it because it is easy to grasp but I will give you more complex texts and this will be the last thing that I talk about and then we will look at the summary of this whole thing.

K. Luke 9:10

In Luke 9:10, says that Jesus and his disciples withdrew by themselves to a town called Bethsaida. This is from the Alexandrian text. In the Western text, it says to a deserted place called Bethsaida and in the Byzantine text, to a deserted place of a town called Bethsaida. Now it is virtually impossible for the Alexandrian and the Western text forms to accidentally drop out part of the reading and here is why. If you have the town; the word for town in the Alexandrian text is in the accusative but if it is a deserted place of a town, it gets put into the genitive which is what the Byzantine text. So, let us assume for the sake of argument, the Byzantine is the original; this is what an Alexandrian scribe would have to do accidentally. He would have to skip over “topon eremon.” The first one he writes down is poleos but he then decides that it isn’t going to be poleos and so instead puts in polen. All this by accident not realizing that he skipped over two words that he has no reason to skip over and thus changes the genitive to the accusative and then he sees kaloumnes and when he sees this, again a feminine genitive, now he changes it to the feminine accusative and then he sees Bethsaida which is in the normative and there is reasons for that in the Byzantine text and he changes that to the accusative. So he is making all sorts of changes, skips a couple of words, changes the case endings on the following three words without realizing that he has made a mistake. Is that even possible? I can’t imagine it. The Western text has the same kind of thing. He writes down topon eremon, a deserted place and now you have this accusative and it is neuter rather than feminine because place is masculine while city or town in feminine. So you have topon eremon and then he skips over poleos and then he gets to kaloumnes and puts in kaloumnen instead. It makes no sense to think that these scribes could ever possibly make that many mistakes in this sort of cluster of places that so conveniently breaks down into two separate renditions of the Byzantine text must have had originally. This is the kind of conflation that Westcott and Hort showed over and over again. This proves that the Byzantine is secondary.

L. Summary

So, Westcott and Hort argue that the Byzantine text was late; there are no ante-Nicene distinctive Byzantine readings. It was an inferior not having good internal readings; this is where I have some disagreement with it and secondary, always the recipient of other readings is to make a conflate reading.

carpenter bee making hole in portland me home

How much damage can a carpenter bee really cause? Should you be worried? Not really, if all you have is one bee attacking your home. The problem is that you're not likely to have only one carpenter bee taking up residence.

A single carpenter bee will not create a very long tunnel. That one bee may only create a tunnel that is 4 to 8 inches long. And it is only the female bee that does this work. Male bees don't do any damage to your home at all. But here are some factors that will cause this tiny issue to become a big problem.

  • If one carpenter bee has decided your home is a good place to live, there is a good chance other carpenter bees are likely to feel the same way. These bees are all looking for an ideal place to live. When you find a carpenter bee hole, it is important to understand what has to be done to make your home less attractive.

  • Carpenter bees use the tunneling made by other carpenter bees. If you've had carpenter bees in the past, you are likely to have even more carpenter bees in the future. The longer this cycle goes on, the more damage these insects will cause. New bees will extend the tunneling made by other bees and produce a new batch of bees in those tunnels. This is a problem that needs to be stopped when it is found.

  • The more carpenter bees you have living near your home, the more of these bees you'll have checking your home out. Obviously, an increased number of attacking bees will increase how much damage they will be able to do to you home.

  • Even a small amount of damage can be a big problem. If you have outside wood steps that lead up to a deck, patio, balcony, or door, those steps could be quickly compromised by carpenter bees. The damage these bees do can weaken steps that look perfectly sound and cause them to snap when stepped on, resulting in personal injury.

If you're seeing carpenter bees around your South Portland home, call the pest experts at Big Blue Bug Solution. We may be new to the Portland area, but we have been servicing New England homes and business since 1935. That is a very long time to learn how to properly control invasive pests, like the humble carpenter bee.

One carpenter bee is no big deal, but this is a small issue that can become a big problem. Don't let these bees go untreated. Get your property protected today.

Africa CDC sees COVID-19 vaccinations in 2nd quarter of 2021

Health News

FILE – In this Aug. 5, 2020, file photo, recently filled graves are seen in the Olifantsveil Cemetery outside Johannesburg, South Africa. The African continent has surpassed 2 million confirmed cases as health officials warn of infections starting to creep up again into a second surge. (AP Photo/Jerome Delay/File)

NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — Vaccinations against COVID-19 in Africa might not start until the second quarter of next year, the continent’s top public health official said Thursday, adding that it will be “extremely dangerous” if more developed parts of the world vaccinate themselves and then restrict travel to people with proof of a vaccination.

The director of the Africa Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, John Nkengasong, told reporters that “I have seen how Africa is neglected when drugs are available” in the past.

And he warned that “it’s clear the second wave (of infections) is here on the continent” of 1.3 billion people. Africa last week surpassed 2 million confirmed coronavirus infections.

The Africa CDC is “very, very encouraged” by promising news from a handful of COVID-19 vaccines in clinical trials, though the cold storage needed to roll out some of them in Africa will be a major challenge, Nkengasong said. He cited such logistics in his prediction for when vaccinations in Africa will begin.

The Africa CDC has been discussing vaccine options with Russia, China and others as it seeks not to be left behind in the race to obtain doses. Nkengasong said the continent will need about 1.5 billion doses, assuming two per person, to reach the 60% coverage needed for herd immunity.

“The worst thing we want for the continent is for COVID to become an endemic disease” in Africa, he said.

The World Health Organization’s Africa chief, Matshidiso Moeti, in a separate briefing said the goal is to vaccinate 20% of the population on the continent by the end of next year.

But the WHO warned that a study of the 47 sub-Saharan African countries in its region found that only just under half, or 49%, have “identified the priority populations for vaccination and have plans in place to reach them,” and just 24% have adequate plans for resources and funding.

It could take more than $5 billion to roll out a COVID-19 vaccine in Africa to priority populations alone, the WHO says — and that doesn’t include the costs for delivering the vaccines.

In one hopeful development, authorities have begun distributing 2.7 million antigen tests throughout the continent, which Nkengasong said is “perhaps a game-changer” that allows for faster and easier testing.

So far, about 21 million tests have been conducted across Africa’s 54 countries.

In a rush…

…with things to do as the days tick away until the Grand 2017 Filial Piety Tour of Appalachia and the West of England begins. It will include a once/twice-a-decade gathering of clan members from exceptionally far-flung parts of the English-speaking world like Melbourne and Maine.

Aside from family ties and linguistic heritage, it appears that we will all be able to rejoice in our shared access to cheap Starbucks. According to a big chart here, the world’s six main native-Anglophone countries happen to occupy the bottom six places in the list of Starbucks markets ranked by cost of the product…

The Netherlands – Europe’s honorary quasi-Anglo country – comes seventh from last, preceded by Japan (supposedly hyper-expensive, but also always weird) and Brazil (the place there’s an awful lot of coffee in).

Why do English-speaking countries have the cheapest Starbucks? Is this liberty-loving Anglo-Saxon free-market, low-tax philosophy in action? Or economies of scale owing to poor-taste, junk-food-addicted Anglos’ willingness to drink dregs, while civilized and sophisticated French, Austrians, Italians consume the decent pricey stuff?

In (unmentioned) Hong Kong, meanwhile…

Well wouldn’t you?

    Are you enjoying the smog and dust in Central today? That’s capitalism for you. They even rob you of the air in your lungs. In Britain meanwhile the Government is breaking the law regarding air quality and being sued by those citizens still able to breathe at length.

    Have a nice holiday. With questions like “Why do English-speaking countries have the cheapest Starbucks?” even vaguely in one’s supratentorial regions, perhaps five miles high will give you a shock redemption of sorts.

    England. Glad I left in 1980. Far far far too many Tories. And just like you, all they really want to talk about is the price of property. Otherwise, quite nice in a weird kind of way.

    Pip, pip!

  2. Maugrim says:

    Sorry Hemmers, unless in espresso dorm, coffee in France is, while not at American levels, is pretty awful.

  3. Ook says:

    Maybe Americans realise that the McDonald’s next door sells better coffee, for cheaper, and it’s easier to order there, and you get your coffee faster anyway.
    Or maybe Starbucks customers are paying for the “experience”, and the foreigners in foreign places insist on a better experience than at the typical American Starbucks.

    Starbucks is a dirty word in Melbourne.

Pelletization of Municipal Solid Waste

MSW is a poor-quality fuel and its pre-processing is necessary to improve its consistency, storage and handling characteristics, combustion behaviour and calorific value. Technological improvements are taking place in the realms of advanced source separation, resource recovery and production/utilisation of recovered fuel in both existing and new plants for this purpose. In recent years, there has been an increase in the pelletization of municipal solid wastes.

What is Pelletization of MSW?

Pelletization of municipal solid waste involves the processes of segregating, crushing, mixing high and low heat value combustible waste material and solidifying it to produce fuel pellets or briquettes, also referred to as Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF).

The process is essentially a method that condenses the waste or changes its physical form and enriches its organic content through removal of inorganic materials and moisture. The calorific value of RDF pellets can be around 4000 kcal/ kg depending upon the percentage of organic matter in the waste, additives and binder materials used in the process.

The calorific value of raw MSW is around 1000 kcal/kg while that of fuel pellets is 4000 kcal/kg. On an average, about 15–20 tons of fuel pellets can be produced after treatment of 100 tons of raw garbage. Since pelletization enriches the organic content of the waste through removal of inorganic materials and moisture, it can be very effective method for preparing an enriched fuel feed for other thermochemical processes like pyrolysis/ gasification, apart from incineration.

Production of MSW Pellets

RDF production line consists of several unit operations in series in order to separate unwanted components and condition the combustible matter to obtain the required characteristics.

The main unit operations are screening, shredding, size reduction, classification, separation either metal, glass or wet organic materials, drying and densification. These unit operations can be arranged in different sequences depending on raw MSW composition and the required RDF quality.

Various qualities of fuel pellets can be produced, depending on the needs of the user or market. A high quality of RDF would possess a higher value for the heating value, and lower values for moisture and ash contents. The quality of RDF is sufficient to warrant its consideration as a preferred type of fuel when solid waste is being considered for co-firing with coal or for firing alone in a boiler designed originally for firing coal.

Uses of MSW Pellets

MSW pellets can be used for heating plant boilers and for the generation of electricity. They can also act as a good substitute for coal and wood for domestic and industrial purposes. The important uses of RDF are found in the following spheres:

  • Cement kilns
  • RDF power plants
  • Coal-fired power plants
  • Industrial steam/heat boilers
  • Pellet stoves

The conversion of solid waste into fuel pellets provides an alternative means for environmentally safe disposal of garbage which is currently disposed off in non-sanitary landfills. In addition, the pelletization technology provides yet another source of renewable energy, similar to that of biomass, wind, solar and geothermal energy. The emission characteristics of RDF are superior compared to that of coal with fewer emissions of pollutants like NOx, SOx, CO and CO2.

What it is?

Bioptic Drivers Australia (BDA) is a place where potential and current bioptic drivers can share experiences about driver assisted technology for the visually impaired. For 40 years, those with central vision loss in countries such as American and the UK have been driving with the use of a Bioptic Telescope and have subsequently developed formalised programs. We share the dream that Australians are given the same opportunity to have a formalised program.

What are we doing?

The bioptic telescope technology has been used by those with central vision loss for 40 year throughout 19 countries. People in Australia have too been using biopic telescopes to drive since at least the 1980. Evidence of this can be seen in the archive chat posts of the International website 'Bioptic Driving Network' at: www.biopticdriving.org. This webpage contains information up until around 2012 and for the Australian context only up until 2001 so is out of date in talking to the Australian scene for bioptic driving. Our website provides more current information. In addition, the bioptic drivers chat forum was moved to Facebook and can now be found at: BIOptic Driving Network [unofficial] https://www.facebook.com/groups/196022693844979/. We have ongoing plans to build this webpage and welcome your feedback. Soon we will add a private forum dedicated to bioptic drivers to talk in private about matters they may not be comfortable sharing publicly. In the meantime, please continue to use the above international Facebook group.

Presently, for bioptic driving, Australia is completely behind the times. Most Australians, including the visually impaired, are unaware of bioptic telescopes and the effects it can have on people and driving. We’re making it our mission to inform the public to prove legitimacy and combat safety concerns. We want to show through our experience and by referring to research, that the technology works, is safe, and benefits not only the wearers, but their families, medical professionals along with the Australian community through the ability of bioptic drivers to continue to engage longer economically and socially.

Who is Bioptic driving for?

Show More

Who is it for?

Our primary target is Australians with central vision loss. Many adults who have central vision loss want to continue driving a car as it represents independence, convenience, and freedom. The bioptic telescope gives them the opportunity to do just this. Further, there are those with congenital (born with) central vision loss who are not aware they can be assessed by an expert in these devices to determine if they are a suitable candidate to use a bioptic for driving. A bioptic telescope can also be used for everyday activities like catching a bus, reading menu boards, in lecture theatres or tutorial rooms for the white board.

There are currently 19 countries that allow the ability to drive with the aid of the bioptic telescope. It is now time that Australians be given the same chance.

This technology depends on medical professionals in order for Australians to be able to use the bioptic telescope. As bioptics are generally used in conjunction with regular carrier lens, they can and should be installed by eye specialists or medical professionals. In order for Australians to use a bioptic telescope, their functional vision must be evaluated and determined by a professional. A suitable telescope and bioptic system will then be chosen and installed if the person is found to be a suitable candidate.

A memo from Airbnb's CEO announcing huge staff cuts is a case study in how leaders can conduct layoffs in a compassionate way

brian chesky
  • Airbnb is laying off 1,900 employees, which is about one quarter of its staff.
  • CEO Brian Chesky's memo to the company shows respect and compassion for all employees affected. It's a model for how leaders should conduct layoffs.
  • The memo explains how management decided which positions to cut, what will happen to remaining employees, and the level of job support that departing employees will receive.
  • Click here for more BI Prime stories.
On Tuesday, Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky announced to employees that the company is laying off 1,900 employees. That's about 25% of its staff.
In the last few months, Business Insider's Troy Wolverton reported, the company has laid off most of its contractors, postponed its summer internships, and slowed its hiring process.
Layoffs are not a great experience for anyone, and especially not for the people losing their jobs. But Chesky's memo to employees is a prime example of how to do layoffs right, in a way that's respectful, compassionate, and pragmatic.
It's rare to find such an example these days.
As Business Insider previously reported, startups including the scooter-maker Bird, the employment marketplace ZipRecruiter, and the women's coworking space The Wing have recently conducted layoffs via massive Zoom calls. Some employees at these companies said they were caught off guard and confused about what was happening.
Chesky, perhaps taking a hint from widespread indignation at the idea of layoffs via videoconference, did things differently. His memo to employees followed, almost to a tee, the advice that HR experts have previously shared with Business Insider around conducting layoffs. You can read the full text of the memo here.
Here's exactly what Chesky's memo did right.

It outlined the decision process for cutting positions

In the memo, Chesky was transparent about Airbnb's financial decline. "Airbnb's business has been hit hard," he wrote, "with revenue this year forecasted to be less than half of what we earned in 2019." (The company's 2019 revenue was $4.8 billion, Wolverton reported.)
To help alleviate some of the financial burden, Chesky said Airbnb is "reducing the size of our workforce around a more focused business strategy," specifically the business of helping people rent out their homes and find homes to rent. The company is "pausing" its investments in areas like transportation and hotels, Chesky added.
That means staff who worked in those areas will likely be let go. Chesky listed as one of his "guiding principles" in conducting the layoffs the desire to "map all reductions to our future business strategy and the capabilities we will need."
Elaine Varelas, managing partner at career-management firm Keystone Partners, previously told me that executives doing layoffs should let the business' strategic direction and financial situation guide them. "The positions are what's eliminated," she said, and not the people.

It made a justifiable argument for why certain employees will be let go

Chesky went one step further, outlining how management reviewed each employee's skill set and considered "how well those skills matched our future business needs." Some employees whose teams were not eliminated will be asked to assume new roles, Chesky wrote.
Again, Chesky made it clear that these layoffs are about positions and skills, which are more easily quantifiable and justifiable than how much the CEO likes someone.
As Buffer CEO Joel Gascoigne (who conducted layoffs a few years ago) previously told me, it's important to identify how and why positions will be eliminated. Otherwise, executives are vulnerable to subjectivity seeping in — and to employees accusing them of making biased decisions.
To that end, Chesky also listed as one of his guiding principles the desire to "be unwavering in our commitment to diversity."

It explained why information about staff cuts was kept confidential until now

Chesky noted in the memo that management opted to "wait to communicate any decisions until all details are landed" because "transparency of only partial information can make matters worse."
This decision to keep news of the impending layoffs private was wise. Varelas told me that a common mistake she sees is not keeping information about layoffs confidential until you're ready to make the announcement. That can lead to rumors — and terror — spreading throughout the staff.

It prepared affected employees for one-on-one meetings with their supervisors

In contrast to the startup execs that conducted layoffs via a mass Zoom call, Chesky wrote in the memo that the employees who were getting laid off would have one-on-one meetings with a senior leader in their department.
Yair Riemer, president of career transition services at CareerArc, previously told me that a one-and-done videoconference isn't the right way to announce layoffs, as efficient as it may seem. Similarly, Varelas said leaders should have one-on-one meetings with everyone who's let go, giving those employees time to process the news and ask questions.

It addressed the employees who will be staying on, too

Chesky dedicated a few lines of the memo to the Airbnb employees whose positions were not cut: "One of the most important ways we can honor those who are leaving is for them to know that their contributions mattered, and that they will always be part of Airbnb's story."
He also wrote that some employees would receive emails about their new roles at the organization, in line with the restructuring, as well as invitations to discuss their new role with a manager.
Riemer said it's important to explain to remaining employees how the layoffs are going to affect the organization. The result? "You end up losing that talent anyway," Riemer said. "They're going to start thinking about moving to competitors. They're going to start getting poached. They're going to start losing faith and confidence in your leadership."

It treated departing employees with respect and compassion

The most important piece of Chesky's memo is that it acknowledged what a disruptive life event layoffs can be. Employees may not know where their next paycheck is coming from, or whether they can afford their next visit to a doctor. In the current economic environment, they may not be certain they can find another job.
Varelas previously told me that respect for employees is key. No one should be "treated suddenly like they're a criminal," she said, or even like someone who hasn't worked hard to help the company grow.
Chesky outlined what will happen to employees' benefits after they leave. Specifically, employees in the US will receive at least 14 weeks of severance pay, with additional severance pay available depending on employees' tenure at the company. Employees in the US will also receive 12 months of health insurance coverage beyond their departure date. (In all other countries, health insurance extends until the end of 2020.)
Most notably, Chesky wrote that Airbnb has dropped the one-year cliff on equity for everyone the company has hired in the past year. That means they don't have to wait one year, as they typically would, for their stock options to vest. All employees have the chance to become shareholders in the company on May 25, Chesky wrote.

It outlined the support employees would receive around career development

Departing employees will receive relatively substantial support as they look for a new job, according to Chesky's memo.
That support includes an alumni placement team, made up of some Airbnb recruiters who help find departing employees their next role at another company. Those employees also have access to a company that specializes in career transition and job placement services. And they're allowed to keep their company laptop, which Chesky said is an important tool in finding a new job.
These provisions for employees are important not solely because they're the right thing to do, ethically speaking. The business case for taking care of employees after layoffs is that they're more inclined to stay loyal to the company.
"This is the moment where brands are built or brands are dented," Riemer said. If the company mishandles layoffs, Riemer added, "it absolutely will impact recruitment and talent because the world is small."
When former employees, say, write reviews on Glassdoor, they won't say terrible things that will dissuade prospective hires from applying if they were shown compassion. And should Airbnb ever want to hire these folks back, they'll remember how respectfully they were treated at this time. It will make a big difference.

– Danielle & Andrew

Thank you all so much for making our wedding day so memorable. Our guests love Bistro C, and so many have said it was the best wedding they had ever been to.

– Jane & Ben

Honestly we cannot remember the number of people who came up to us with compliments about the amazing food, drinks, and the setting.

It really was a perfect day.

– Caitlin & Richard

Many people travelled far and wide; as well as from overseas to attend this wedding and everyone is still talking about it today. I have been to many a reception over the years and I must say this rates as Number 1. The food choices were excellent and extremely well presented and tasted out of this world. The staff were so attentive, ensuring a good time was had by all. And of course the view from Bistro C is breathtaking!

Looking For Inspiration? Five Great Gambling Movies for You

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Everybody loves a good Netflix and chill; a romantic comedy, or maybe an interesting documentary. But sometimes all we (gamblers) want to see is the thrill of the pleasant and disobedient air of outstanding gambling movies, whether it is the witty ones, the more gritty ones or just the plain old slick type.

So, from the vast library of Netflix, we have found a few interesting gambling themed movies that are probably the best that the streaming service has to offer. Well, yes, of course, everybody has been making a fuss about some new blockbusters but that will soon pass, but the movies we are recommending are definitely worth watching twice. And if cinema is your thing then we have some honorable mentions for you.

  1. Donnie Brasco

To kick things off we begin with this movie which many people consider to be an absolute classic. Having a star-studded cast that includes a young Al Pacino and an even younger Johnny Depp makes the movie ooze of great and captivating storytelling. The movie is a dark, gritty timeless classic brilliance that should be at the top of your watch, depending on how fast you can get to it.

  1. Hoodlum

Featuring Laurence Fishburne, Tim Roth, and Vanessa Williams, Hoodlum is based on real-life events. The story is based on the activities of black gangs who battled it out with the Italian mob for control over the Harlem numbers racket in the 1930s. This falls on the grittier end but it does give some valuable life lessons.

  1. The Gambler

The title tells it all for this one. Starring Jessica Lange, John Goodman and Mark Wahlberg, The Gambler tells the story of a professor with huge gambling debts who then plots to win big by plotting with one of his basketball star students to save shots during a game. This one delivers more than just a captivating story as it openly portrays the realities of the gambling world.

  1. Win It All

This will probably turn up in Netflix search for ‘gambling movies’ and it indeed deserves a top spot owing to the brilliance that it boasts of. It stars Jake Johnson and the ever-amazing Keegan-Michael Key in an action-packed drama that sees the lead character eventually come out on top.

  1. What Happens In Vegas

What Happens in Vegas boasts of a truly outstanding cast consisting of the ever-brilliant Cameron Diaz, the magnificent Ashton Kutcher as well as the great Rob Corddry. It tells the story of two strangers who awaken to find that they have gotten married after a night of intense partying and hitting the Vegas casino tables.

And there you go folks. Have a great movie break. Just make sure you pay attention to the details – you might actually learn a thing or two.

A whole lotta "Really Good" stuff here

Really good stuff, yes it certainly is good stuff from Really Good UK. It’s just my kind of website with a very large spoilt for choice funky selection of bits and bobs, kids stuff, home stuff, fun stuff and gifting type stuff. All good.

There’s all sorts of things in this one picture; but before I start on what they are, you all really really need to see this first, and especially so if you have young children.

Yes I was pleasantly surprised/shocked when I first spotted this actual  naughty seat. No longer will I have to designate the bottom step or one of my own chairs as the naughty spot for Izebella. She now has her very own designated naughty stool for when she decides to throw her tantrums and scream and whatever else she feels like doing.

Oh yes, this has been used a fair few times already for my little madam. This is no quirky fancy feature in our living room it is a working product and yes it works a treat.
I think she saw it as a novelty thing at first until she realised that’s where she sits for x amount of minutes if she does something wrong.
Well worth the £25.00 cost in my opinion. Small enough to store in a corner or under the table when she’s being good too.
This item also works well with the naughty chair.

A behaviour book. Forget charts that get pulled down. This book is much better. Each page is a full week with plenty of space for notes and lots of sticker sheets too.

Izebella isn’t that naughty to be honest. She is generally well behaved, she just has her tantrum moments.
When Izebella stays with her dad, she likes to take a few toys and teddies, so a bag just like this comes in really useful.

It has lots of space inside for toys and sweets and other bits of really good stuff and a friendly bear on the front. Perfect for a 4 year old sleeping out.
And a smaller overnight type bag is this one.

It’s a tired bunny pyjama bag. It looks like a swim/p.e bag with draw string fastening and is big enough for pyjamas, toothbrush and maybe a small teddy too. Or just put pyjamas inside so you know where they are.
Also on the above photograph is a pencil case, a wooden door sign, which Ryan has on his door right now and a toy searchlight which is really unusual.

It looks like a small plastic wallet with a teddy bear picture on, but a press of a hidden button turns on a very bright torch light. Good for finding toys at night, maybe reading and seeing in the dark. It is really really bright, it’s probably not a good idea to shine it in the eyes. It only costs a fiver too, pocket money toys.
And here’s something else that lights up! Four of them!

These are showtime light up cards. Each one has our initials on and they even come in ages too. I’m glad we got the initial ones, I don’t want to show my age. Each one costs £5.00. They light up with a button press and turn off after about a few seconds  For a card they are very bright. The insides are blank to write own greeting and envelopes come included. They can also be put on a bedroom wall or by the side of the bed as a little light as well as given as cards.

Yes it’s a height chart. I don’t think it’s big enough to measure my height but it does go up to 4ft 9 so not too far off. These always look good on plain walls.
Finally a selection of funky tins.

A money tin and not the sort you have to destroy to get the coins out. A girly tin with a unicorn to keep girly type treasures away from nosey brothers and then the one that I would have loved when younger – The secret stuff tin, to hide from parents which comes complete with lock and key. I dread to think what sort of junk Ryan may keep in his over the next few years.
Yes all these things and much more  can be purchased at the same Really good website place. Some very funny funky things to be found and I don’t think anything can beat the naughty seat. This face says it all!

Doctors guilty of medical malpractice face serious consequences

| Oct 16, 2012 | Medical Malpractice

Texas doctors who perform surgeries negligently may have to surrender their medical licenses permanently. Medical malpractice charges can be filed against medical professionals who have acted negligently in performing their medical duties. A neurosurgeon recently did so after his state medical board conducted an intensive 18-month investigation regarding his high rate of repeat spinal surgeries.

According to an analysis of Medicare claims data, the doctor’s high rate of multiple spinal-fusion procedures was close to 10 times the national average for surgeons who performed the procedure. The medical board found the doctor to have been repeatedly negligent and have engaged in dishonorable conduct. The doctor disagrees with this but willingly surrendered his license permanently. He will never be permitted to reapply for it.

The doctor has faced malpractice suits from over 30 patients for a variety of reasons such as performing unnecessary procedures on them. Many hospitals in the area are also facing suits for allowing the doctor to perform surgeries even though there were glaring signs that he was incompetent. The Journal is now working to make Medicare data available to the public because it is considered to be the best source for information on health care in this country.

Negligence on the part of medical professionals can lead to worsened medical conditions in patients and fatal medical errors. Courts will use testimony of experts in the field to determine whether the doctor followed the proper standard of care in the situation in question. If he did not, the courts will find him to have been negligent. Medical professionals found guilty of negligence can face serious consequences including losing their license to practice medicine. This will prevent unfit physicians from harming even more patients.

Ex-DIO Guitarist TRACY G Says RONNIE JAMES DIO Hologram 'Looks Creepy' And Resembles 'A Puppet'

Ex-DIO Guitarist TRACY G Says RONNIE JAMES DIO Hologram 'Looks Creepy' And Resembles 'A Puppet'

Ex-DIO guitarist Tracy "G" Grijalva says that the Ronnie James Dio hologram "looks creepy" and resembles "a puppet."

The former vocalist in BLACK SABBATH and RAINBOW, who died in 2010 at the age of 67, is now the subject of a touring show in which his three-dimensional representation is backed by members of his band DIO.

Grijalva, who played guitar for DIO from 1993 through 1999, was asked for his opinion of the Ronnie hologram during an appearance on the latest episode of the "80's Glam Metalcast".

He said (hear audio below): "I don't know about that, man. I just don't know about it. It looks creepy to me, 'cause it's not [Ronnie]. It looks like a puppet. It's cool to keep his music alive and all that jazz. What little I've seen, it looks weird to me, and I just don't know if he'd be a big fan of it. People say different things, and it's all hearsay. I knew the guy for six years, and what I knew about him, I can't see him looking at that and going, 'Bitching.'"

The Dio hologram was created by a company called Eyellusion and made its debut at the Wacken Open Air festival in August 2016 in front of more than 75,000 fans.

The Dio hologram production uses audio of Ronnie's live performances from throughout his career, with the DIO band playing live, consisting of Craig Goldy on guitar, Simon Wright on drums and Scott Warren on keyboards, along with Bjorn Englen on bass. Also appearing with them are former JUDAS PRIEST singer Tim "Ripper" Owens and ex-LYNCH MOB frontman Oni Logan.

"It's just weird, man," Tracy continued. "And anyway, I'm not here to put down anybody, but… Craig Goldy doing all the guitars and Simon Wright doing all the drums… I love Simon Wright; he's a great AC/DC drummer. The drummer for DIO is Vinny [Appice] — he's the drummer that has the feel for DIO. Simon doesn't have the same feel. He's a great drummer, great guy. He'll probably even say the same thing — he doesn't have the same feel. No drummer has the same feel; all drummers play different. Vinny is one of the greatest — he plays meat and potatoes, but with a feel — he has the feel that's worth everything. Vinny is not just a metronome.

"I know they're playing along with Ronnie's voice, but the music's real stiff…. It's just, like, 'Oh, man.' It doesn't have that feel.

"I met the bass player guy that plays bass for that. He told me a couple of the tracks they do — I think 'Heaven And Hell' and 'Don't Talk To Strangers' or something — they stole from my era; meaning, they stole Ronnie's vocals from when I was playing with him," Tracy added. "And he's singing — the hologram is singing it — but then they're playing the song; they're following Ronnie. So, I was, like, 'That's pretty cool.' They thought out of everything that they listened to, that Ronnie sang 'Heaven And Hell' a thousand times, from the Dio-era BLACK SABBATH, they thought his best performance, a couple of those songs, was from my era, when I was playing with him. So that made me feel kind of good. I was, like, 'Well, that's cool.'

"To sum up what I think of the whole hologram thing — I don't know," he said. "I've gotta just say I don't know. I'm not sure."

Grijalva is not the first former DIO guitarist to express his doubts about the Ronnie James Dio hologram. This past March, Doug Aldrich, who was in DIO between 2002 and 2006, told XS Rock: "I would see it if it was close by or if you had a good theater or something. I'd go see it to support the guys and and everything, but I can tell you that Ronnie would probably not like this. He would probably be, like, 'This is not what I signed up for.' A hologram? It's not really what he would want to be. I'm just guessing, you know, that it's something that [Ronnie's wife and manager] Wendy [Dio] thought about and she decided that Ronnie would be fine with it. But I knew Ronnie well enough to know that he was very particular and he would prefer for them to let him just die and be in peace."

After the tour's initial seven-date run was completed in December 2017, Ronnie's hologram underwent some changes before the launch of the first 2019 leg of the "Dio Returns", which kicked off on May 31 at the Barbara B. Mann Performing Arts Hall in Fort Myers, Florida and concluded on June 28 in Los Angeles, California.

The "Dio Returns" 17-song set consists of seven tunes sung by the Dio hologram — the rest feature Owens and Logan separately or together — and encompasses material from Dio's lengthy career, including his earlier days in RAINBOW and BLACK SABBATH.

Tracy left DIO in 1999 after he claimed he was "asked to play in a dual-guitar situation" in Ronnie's band. According to a posting on Tracy's web site, Dio was "looking for more of a Ritchie Blackmore style . . . and wanted [Tracy] to step back and just play rhythm guitar. That's when [Tracy] knew it was time to leave, freeing him to more diligently pursue his home studio projects."

The Least-squares AMBiguity Decorrelation Adjustment (LAMBDA) method [Teunissen, 1993] is an essential tool in my software. Prior to LAMBDA, finding the “best” integer ambiguity vector was a very computationally-intensive process. The decorrelation procedure of LAMBDA allows for an efficient search to be performed and has become widely accepted in the GNSS community. A faster search process does not however mean a shorter time to resolve ambiguities...

LAMBDA is essentially forming linear combinations of ambiguities that are less correlated than the original ones. Since decorrelation often leads to smaller standard deviations for the ambiguities, we could assume that LAMBDA improves ambiguity resolution. Not so fast… You can easily verify that LAMBDA will return the same integer vectors (with the same ambiguity residuals) as the integer least-squares solution without decorrelation.

Other than speeding up the search process, LAMBDA could be beneficial when:

  1. using rounding or bootstrapping for fixing ambiguities instead of integer least-squares.
  2. doing partial fixing since it allows identifying  a subset of decorrelated ambiguities that are more easily fixable. (For example, we all know that fixing only the widelane ambiguities is usually more likely to succeed than fixing all ambiguities on L1/L2.)

Remember that if you wish to fix all ambiguities using integer least-squares, LAMBDA, the widelane combination, or any linear combination for that matter, is not helping you.

Vitamin D deficiency may limit immune recovery in HIV positive adults

Low levels of vitamin D may limit the effectiveness of HIV treatment in adults, new US research shows. Those with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) often struggle with declining health because their immune systems can't effectively respond to common pathogens. Their immune statuses, usually measured by CD4+T cells, normally improve when given HIV treatment.

20 Ton H-Frame Industrial Heavy Duty Floor Shop Press

Recommended Posts

The key with forging presses is speed. The longer those dies are in contact with your work, the more heat gets sucked out of your work. Usually those things move too slowly and you can't get anything done because by the time you start squishing, the steel is already cold and won't move.

There have been a number of people convert log splitters so I guess that's one potential alternative.

Edit: also there's this topic pinned here

could be of some help.

What Cody said.  Those are too slow and too wobbly.  Good for straightening leaf springs, pressing bearings, that sort of thing, but that's about it.

i used the a frame 12 ton did a lot of moving for me  i was getting results similar to sledgehammer work trick was making a tee handle on the relice so it would cycle quicker and it was faster than hand hammering by far right up till it shear the bolts i rebuilt it useing better bolts then it ripped the bolts from the frame .......then i just built a real press both times it broke in the same evening of forging like maybe an hour of help then boom done with that

Tegalalang Rice Terrace

Rice paddies Bali, Bali

Rice is Beautiful Tegalalang Rice Terrace

Tegallalang Rice Terraces in Ubud is famous for its beautiful scenes of rice paddies involving the subak (traditional Balinese cooperative irrigation system), which according to history, was passed down by a revered holy man named Rsi Markandeya in the eighth century. Tegallalang forms the three most splendid terraced landscapes in Ubud's shared region, with the others being in the villages of Pejeng and Campuhan. The Tegallalang rice terraces alone offers a scenic outlook that spreads down before you and away to the rice paddies on the slopes across the valley. The high roadside location is cool and breezy and it is a well-known spot for tourists to stop and take photos. Painters and nature lovers also enjoy visiting this spot, and there are numerous art kiosks and cafes near the ledge offering their ware.
