Motion 4 - Items In Group Shift?

Posted by eclipse13
Motion 4 - Items In Group Shift?
March 29, 2012 04:18PM
I created this group that contains a generator and some circles with behaviors.

I duplicated that group several times and then Group the entire set, so I can animate them.

The problem is that all the circles in each on of those groups seem to shift once I animate (scale & positioning) the entire group. Is there a way to make sure they don't move? If I lock the layer/group, then I obviously can't animate it. Is there way to combine the generator/circles into a sort of symbol (I know, I know it's not Flash but trying make correlation)?

Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.

Dersut Café

Summer Opening: 7.30

Dersut, the Caballini family’s historic Veneto coffee roasting plant has, over the years, created a series of projects for cafes and coffee shops in the North-East with three different formats “La Bottega del Caffè Dersut”, “Italiana Caffè” and, more recently, “Giornale & Caffè”.

LA BOTTEGA DEL CAFFE’ DERSUT: this was created in 2002 and is one of Dersut’s most recent success stories. The name Bottega del Caffè was deliberately chosen to underline that this is a place where coffee is not only drunk, but also sold. It is also a term from the age of Goldoni that captures the spirit of a café, where you can experience every aspect of coffee, from its aroma, to the typically Italian tradition of the coffee-drinking ritual and its cultural universe.

This is an intelligent pairing, with which Dersut’s Bottega del Caffè gives the coffee break a different air and offers an immediate and important profitable business opportunity. Situated in city centres, shopping centres or in suburbs with a large population, the Bottega is an environment with a particularly welcoming and relaxing atmosphere that offers a vast choice of blends, but also teas, infusions, fresh juices, non-alcoholic long drinks, savoury snacks and speciality patisserie. In line with current market trends, there are low-calorie, balanced, natural products with nutritional facts and carefully-selected ingredients.

Form 806 Filings

An official may vote to hold another position even if the voting official will receive additional income so long as the public is informed prior to the vote or consent item. FPPC Regulation 18702.5 provides for the filing of a Form 806 under these circumstances. Each agency must post on its website a single Form 806 which lists all the paid appointed positions to which an official will vote to appoint themselves. When there is a change in compensation or a new appointment, the Form 806 is updated to reflect the change. The form must be updated promptly as changes occur.

Freeze! My favorite workout

by - 6:34 AM

Emily van Camp workout
 I have been trying to mix my workouts up as much as possible. Running, biking, weights and yoga.
And when I pop in a fitness tape, my favorite now is Lalo Fuentes' Lalofit.
It leaves me breathless. And unlike some superhuman and freaky trainers,
 it is fun to see that even Lalo himself is dripping with sweat.
The routine is tough, every move uses more than one muscle group.
His signature style is the Freeze technique, where you pause for a second at the most difficult part of the move. Impossible to cheat that way!
No doubt, Lalo gets results, I can recommend this one.
See here the workout Emily van Camp does with Lalo
(In general I tend to stay away from celebrity trainers, trying to avoid the advice to not to go running, or have to stop eating after 7 pm, what?!)

After all the sweating I cool down with this refreshing summer smoothie:
Greek yogurt
and water.
Blend and add some salt en pepper.

Lee County & Hurricane Irma

The arrival of Hurricane Irma in Lee County on Sept. 10, 2017, had both immediate and long-lasting impacts on the community. As the one-year anniversary of the storm approaches, here is a recap of some of those effects, as well as the local response and efforts to mitigate future storm impacts:

Canals and Flood Mitigation

$4.36 million spent on contractor firms to remove debris from creeks, waterways and drainage canals.

Obtained $4.95 million grant from Natural Resources Conservation Services with additional $1.65 million Board of County Commissioners commitment for waterway and weir repair and sediment removal.

$3 million allocated in FY18-19 budget for flood remediation

36.8 miles of major drainage canals cleared of debris

Community Development

A total of 12,175 roofing permits were issued from Sept. 11, 2017 to Aug. 23, 2018

Damage assessment

Commercial Loss: $102.4 million
Residential Loss: $725.9 million
Other Loss: $4.4 million

Debris removal (for unincorporated Lee County and Village of Estero):
Cubic yards total: 2,704,829.76
Total cost: $39,038,906.50

Economic Development

Small Business Administration Loans – 2,996 loans approved, $117.7 million
Emergency Bridge Loans – 75 loans approved, $3.1 million

Emergency Management / Public Safety

Emergency Operations Center seated 110 people during Irma, representing about 60 agencies or organizations
Lee County residents who attended 2018 hurricane prep seminars: 2,762
New shelter staff trained: 250
Shelter facilities surveyed for additional improvements (HMGP):  20
Additional county employees identified to support disaster operations through a pilot program: 200
Additional activities:
Held planning meetings with all principals and leadership teams from shelter schools, Parks and Recreation facilities, Germain Arena and FGCU/Alico Arena.
Further developed shelter feeding plan.
Streamlined shelter registration form to shorten time spent in line.
Developed plans to adjust Emergency Operations Center floor layout and organizational chart to confirm roles and responsibilities and staffing depth.
Currently updating the County’s Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP) based on Irma lessons learned across the board.
The latest estimate shows that Lee County and its jurisdictions could be eligible for up to $24 million in Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) funding for up to 58 projects.  This number is subject to change and no projects are guaranteed.  The money is not dispersed upfront (it’s a reimbursement grant program), and all projects must meet strict eligibility requirements. Countywide, project ideas have included critical infrastructure, generator and hardening projects, and flood/drainage projects.

Evacuation snapshot
Evacuations were ordered for about 300,000 people
14 shelters opened.
About 35,000 people were sheltered, the largest sheltering operation in the state for Hurricane Irma.
About 3,550 pets were sheltered.
From the first shelter opening to the last shelter closing, shelters operated for 6 weeks, 2 days.
Lee County EMS received 1,142 calls for service in the 48 hours post-landfall.

303 traffic signals repaired

United Way

United Way 211 worked out of the County Emergency Operations Center for 19 straight days and took more than 40,000 calls from residents and visitors in the month of September 2017 alone. Workers made direct calls to more than 1,200 people with special needs to arrange transportation to get them to the shelters.
United Way worked with the Emergency Operations Center and the network of agencies to coordinate and set-up eight Points of Distribution and more than 20 feeding sites to provide emergency food, water, ice and medical supplies

Purchase and install three permanent generators (permanent emergency pumping capability equipment) for the next two consecutive years for lift stations. Funding is included in in FY19 budget.

Purchase an additional 3,000-gallon fuel truck to add to its current inventory for the refueling of generators for lift stations and raw water wells.

Create a new budgeted position in FY19 for another generator technician.

The Warren Folkestone Kent

Groynes Long Exposure 10 stop ND filter

Today i went to a place called The Warren at Folkestone in Kent with a good friend of mine and fellow photographer Barry Stewart. The weather was a little overcast and grey with no real detail in the sky, for me i always find black and white works really well on days like this.

When we arrived the place was almost deserted with just the odd dog walker around. This place is fantastic for photographers with old groynes,rocks and drift wood around. My tip is to visit about two hours after high tide. This will then give you access to all the groynes and rocks around and the chance to photograph them as the tide is on its way out.

I set up the camera on a tripod with following settings:

  • Bulb mode
  • Aperture F/8.0
  • ISO 100
  • Manual Focus

Once i had the shot composed i got focus on auto focus and then selected Manual focus to stop the camera from hunting . I attached my B+W 10 stop ND filter and took my IR remote to fire the camera.
I started out with a exposure of 60 sec viewed it on the LCD and adjusted exposure time as i saw fit. The above shot was at 70 sec exposure.

I do find that the B+W stopper does give a slight magenta hue but is very easily corrected in lightroom before starting to edit in CS5.

If you own a iphone you can download a free app called Long Exposure Calculator, i use it and find it very helpful as a starting point, i then adjust the exposure to get the result i am looking for.Or after a little search i found a good explanation and a few charts here.
As ever any questions or comments please feel free to use the comments section thanks

The Lost Memoirs of Jane Austen by Syrie James

The Lost Memoirs of Jane Austen by Syrie James
(Rated: C)
Avon A , an imprint of HarperCollins
Published Nov 6, 2007
Hadrcover, 303 pages

If you are a Jane Austen fan, you will surely enjoy reading this book. The premise behind this fictional tale is that Jane Austen’s memoirs were discovered after being hidden hundreds of years in an old attic chest. What do they reveal? They disclose events that happened within a span of ten years in Jane Austen’s life. Best of all, they reveal that Jane Austen had a true love—a reciprocated love with the very likeable gentleman, Mr. Ashford. But we know that Jane died young and unmarried, so what truly happened between her and the love of her life?

I kept turning the pages to find out and I was not disappointed by author Syrie James’ deft manner of weaving the known facts of Jane’s life into her novel to create a story so believable, so well-written, with a voice that captures Jane Austen’s own that it felt like I had truly read a memoir penned by Jane’s own hand. It was such a pleasant, wholesome book to read.

This novel is also easier to read and has a simpler plot than Jane Austen’s own novels. It includes great characters but unfortunately no villain. Nonetheless, I loved reading this historical fiction, and I look forward to reading more of Syrie James’ works.

Disclosure: I bought this book from Doubleday Book Club. It was not sent to me for review.

The Rule of Three by Eric Walters

The Rule of Three by Eric Walters
Razor Bill
ISBN: 978-0670067053
Published: January  2014
Hardcover, 416 pages
Ages 12+

You know how when we read a dystopian novel, we wonder how the world it’s set in got to be the way it is? Well, this book skillfully shows how this could happens. When computers around the world shut down, no one knows what is happening. At first it seems to be an electrical outage, but it soon turns out to be a viral catastrophe when cell phones are down and anything involving computers does not work, such as cars, planes, and water filtration.

The rule of three states that a person can last 3 minutes without air, 3 days without water, and 3 weeks without food. Sixteen year-old Adam soon learns that to survive, their neighbourhood community must band together for protection because fear and desperation is making people turn on each other with violence, as food resources dwindle and chaos mounts.

Walters builds his story and plot well from day one as the reader lives day to day with Adam and his neighbours as the horror and seriousness of their situation becomes more and more apparent. Having a mom who is a police captain, and Herb, the older gentleman next door, who is a retired government spy, puts Adam right in the middle of the action. His skills, intelligence and common sense are key in helping his family and neighbours survive.

I really loved the way Walters built suspense and kept me guessing as to how the community was going to survive. Adam and Herb were great characters. I loved their dialogue and their relationship, and how Herb trusts and teaches Adam to use his skills when dealing with people in a crisis. I would almost say this was a psychological YA thriller. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough especially as the danger kept building.

The story seems to end a little too abruptly for me. There is not enough denouement after the heart-pounding climax. I think I probably would have appreciated an epilogue in this case. But this is my only complaint really. I thoroughly enjoyed this novel as it was thought-provoking with a unique premise that could become all too real in the world we live in.

Note: This book is rated V = scenes of gunshots, killing, explosions.

Breakfast Boosts to Jump Start Your Day

National Nutrition Month is an opportunity for everyone to learn about how to enhance their overall health! The theme for this year’s National Nutrition Month is “Go Further with Food,” and one of the first things you can go forward with is how you start your day.

With breakfast being the most important meal of the day, the type of food and beverages you consume in the morning can really make or break how your body can function throughout the day. Adding whole grains, adequate protein and a variety of fruits and vegetables provides your body with the nutrients needed on a daily basis. A healthy breakfast can also help curb cravings and decrease the risk of overeating at other meals. Some may find consuming a healthy breakfast may be a burden, but taking a few extra minutes to make simple nutritious changes to your breakfast menu can really help your entire day and overall well-being.

Following are a few ideas to help you start your day on the right track:

• Prepare instant oatmeal with low-fat milk instead of water. Toss in raisins or dried cranberries and chopped walnuts.

• Layer low-fat plain yogurt with your favorite crunchy cereal and blueberries.

• Blend a breakfast smoothie with low-fat milk, frozen strawberries and a banana.

• Make one packet of microwave oatmeal with low-fat milk. Mix in 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce. Sprinkle with apple pie spice or cinnamon.

• Top a toaster waffle with low-fat yogurt and peach slices.

• Stuff a whole-wheat pita with a sliced, hard-cooked egg and low-fat shredded cheese.

• Spread a flour tortilla with peanut butter. Add a whole banana and roll it up.

• Spread low-fat cream cheese on a whole-grain toasted bagel. Top with sliced strawberries.

Make this National Nutrition Month the month you start “going forward with food!” Enjoy!

What Will Happen If Tps Ends?

Nassau says it will continue to comply with immigration and customs enforcement

Following President Donald Trump’s executive orders in 2017, Immigration and Customs Enforcement has widened its deportation efforts to include any and all undocumented immigrants.
Following President Donald Trump’s executive orders in 2017, Immigration and Customs Enforcement has widened its deportation efforts to include any and all undocumented immigrants.
Courtesy ICE

Part four in an ongoing series. Read parts [12356, 7] here.

“I will not go back unless I’m deported,” said Gilberto, an Elmont homeowner and TPS holder who asked that only his first name be used. He has lived in the U.S. for nearly 20 years with his wife and sons.

Gilberto is not alone. Patrick Young, of Hempstead’s Central American Refugee Center, has been working on dozens of TPS renewal applications in recent months. He said that among those he has spoken with, none intend to leave.

“Not a single person that’s come in here has talked about going home, “ Young said. “That’s not home to them anymore.”

TPS holders, he said, plan to stay past their termination dates. That could mean that some 9,000 current Nassau residents who have been living here legally will go underground, living off the books as undocumented immigrants, according to Long Island-wide analysis by the Suffolk County Department of Economic Development and Planning.

No longer exempt

President Trump issued new priorities for the Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement at the start of his presidency last year. DHS officials subsequently directed the department, and ICE, to prioritize the deportation of criminal immigrants.

Without TPS, those same orders will, over the next two years, apply to thousands of law-abiding immigrants who are protected by the program.

Brendan Raedy, an ICE spokesman, said that when TPS ends, the immigrants who relied on it would revert back to whatever status they had before — for most of them, undocumented immigrant, Young said. Raedy insisted, however, that ICE would not issue a deportation order simply because an immigrant had lost TPS. “I can’t stress this enough — that alien would come to ICE’s attention under this scenario based on a hypothetical criminal infraction, not the fact [that] they once held TPS,” he wrote in an email.

But criminal infractions can range from serious offenses to those as simple as failing to use a turn signal. Young said that the most common way law enforcement would get former TPS holders is through expired drivers’ licenses. TPS holders have licenses that display their immigration status, including the date their status expires.

That turned a simple trip for Carmen, an Oyster Bay resident who has TPS, into an intense confrontation with law enforcement. Carmen, who also asked to be identified only by her first name, was returning from a college open house in upstate New York with her daughter when an officer stopped them for failing to move aside to give him clearance under the move-over law. Carmen said she was initially confused, because she thought police cars just went around you when they needed to pass, but she handed over documents that included her expired TPS driver’s license.

“I told him up front that it was expired, but that my renewal had already been approved and I was just waiting for the new license to come,” Carmen said. But the officer did not care about her story, she said, and immediately told her that he would report her to ICE. She knew she was not in danger, but the officer went on for nearly an hour about how he would contact ICE and have her deported. Although she remained calm, she said, her daughter began to cry. The officer eventually left, having given her the ticket for her traffic violation.

“I was able to keep my cool, because I knew I was safe,” Carmen said. “But how many of us can do that?”

State and local plans

Following Trump’s call in January 2017 to increase immigration enforcement in the U.S., New York state Attorney General Eric Schneiderman issued his “2017 Guidance Concerning Local Authority Participation In Immigration Enforcement and Model Sanctuary Provisions.” The guidelines describe how local law enforcement agencies can navigate the legal landscape of immigration enforcement.

“The Attorney General’s Office recognizes that by protecting the rights and well-being of immigrant families, we build trust in law enforcement and other public agencies, thus enhancing public safety for all,” Schneiderman said in a statement. On March 13 of this year he joined 19 other attorneys general to call on Congress to allow TPS holders to receive permanent resident status.

The state guide also provides information on how a local government may become a sanctuary, meaning that its law-enforcement agencies would not comply with ICE regulations on deporting immigrants. Nassau County Executive Laura Curran has said that the county did not have any plans to become a sanctuary, adding that she feared that the county might lose some federal funding if it did so and citing repeated threats against sanctuaries by the White House. The federal government has yet to cut funding for any sanctuary county.

Since 2007, the Nassau County Police Department’s policy has been to work with ICE whenever it arrests a foreign-born defendant, according to the NCPD’s Policy 3610. The NCPD did not respond to the Herald’s requests for a statement on the department’s plan should TPS be terminated. County officials have said that NCPD would continue to comply with ICE, as usual.

Village police officials said they have drafted their own policies in case TPS is terminated. The Herald contacted the Long Beach, Lynbrook and Rockville Centre police departments, but has not been able to obtain a copy of such a policy.

According to a letter Schneiderman sent out to police chiefs around the state in 2014, and reiterated in his 2017 state guide, “compliance with requests for immigration holds is voluntary — not mandatory — and compliance with such requests remains at the discretion of the local enforcement agencies.”

The guide goes on to explain that the mere fact that someone is an undocumented immigrant is not a criminal offense, and that such status does not allow local enforcement agencies to detain someone, even if ICE uses terms like “probable cause” or “warrant.” It further states that agencies that detain individuals in the absence of a judicial warrant or probable cause may be liable for monetary damages.

The Central American Refugee Center and a local, unnamed undocumented immigrant are suing Nassau County for its police policy and its compliance with ICE.

Guest Post Author Bio: Miss T blogs at Prairie EcoThrifter. She grew up in the Canadian prairies and still lives there today. She is passionate about saving money, being healthy, looking out for our environment, and most of all having fun. Her blog shares tips on how you too can live a green, debt free, and fun life.

This week I am participating in a sub-Yakezie blog swap where I am to answer the question ” 5 Ways To Live Greener.” I had to seriously think about this for a minute because my hubby and I have been living green for quite some time now, or at least I thought…

Last year I decided along with my husband to live a more eco-friendly lifestyle. When we first started we focused on controlling our house temperature with a programmable thermostat and composting our kitchen scraps. Then we branched off into reusable shopping bags, making our own cleaning products, and making our own personal care products. I even stopped driving my car to work and started walking to limit my carbon footprint.

Despite this, when I thought long and hard about this question I was able to come up with five more ways that we can live greener.

  1. Buy more local and organic produce. We usually try to buy local when we can but we often end up buying produce that has been imported. The reason for this is that there is very limited produce options where we live, especially in the winter months. Not much grows in the prairies during the winter when temperatures can reach -30 degrees Celsius. Plus not all of the food that is grown here is organic. We do try to buy the items listed on the dirty dozen organic but even this is a challenge sometimes due to the supply that we get where we live. This year I am going to make a concerted effort to find more local and organic suppliers of produce, especially for the winter months.
  2. Wash linens in cold water. I have been doing our laundry in cold water for years now with the exception of linens. The reason for this is I have dust allergies and I have read that the only way to kill dust mites is to use hot or steaming water. Since I have always washed our sheets in hot water I have never had a problem so as far as I know this is working. However, in an effort to be more green, I am going to try washing our linens in cold water to see what happens. Will I start getting itchy and really stuffed up? We will have to see.
  3. Drink tap water. I grew up on bottled spring water that my parents had delivered to the house on a biweekly basis. When I first moved out I also bought spring water bottles for my cooler at home. When I met my husband he too had a cooler and home that he bought bottled water for. In our house now, we have a cooler where we buy filtered city water from a distributor. The fact that we are still drinking city water is an improvement from the imported spring water I grew up on as a kid but there is still room for improvement. We have been talking about getting a Brita filter for our fridge but we drink so much water that I am afraid we will not get cold water to drink very often since the jug doesn’t hold much. I am not quite sure what we will decide on but it something we are looking at to improve.
  4. Use green lodging when we travel. We love to travel and usually go on one large trip a year; a month away or so. We try to walk places when we travel and use eco-friendly personal care products but we haven’t been staying in green lodging. In some of the places we go there aren’t any and we are stuck but in other larger centres, green options do exist but are more highly priced. Despite this, I would like to make more of an effort to stay in eco-friendly accommodations on our future trips.
  5. Use energy star appliances. In the last year we bought a new freezer for our summer produce that is rated energy star. However, our stove, microwave, second freezer, fridge, and laundry equipment are not energy star. I would love to replace these however it comes at a cost. You would think consumers would get a deal on equipment that is better for the environment but they don’t. I would like to look at our budget and come up with some money where we could replace some of our existing appliances.

I am sure if I continue to look around I can find more ways live green but this is start for 2011 anyway.

So, what are some ways you can live greener? Please share.

Albion Explosives Factory

About the Friends of the Black Powder mill

Where is the Black Powder Mill?

The Black Powder Mill Significance

The following information is from 'Albion Explosives Factory' by G. Vines and A. Ward, wriiten in 1988.

The Black Powder Mill is of significance as potentially the only "accessible" example of a purpose built structure for the manufacture of gunpowder in Victoria. In 1984 there were several other mills of this type in Australia, including three almost identical buildings across the road at ICI, but these were demolished in the 1990s.

The reason the Black Powder Mill is still standing is because it is an important part of Australian history. It was once part of a large site with over 400 buildings. The Black Powder buildingwas one of these buildings. This large site was called the Albion Explosives Factory. It made chemicals and explosives for World War II. Without this building, Australia might not be where it is today. The Albion Explosives Factory has been knocked down and this is the only buiulding that is left. This building holds the memories for the people who once worked at the factory.

The Black Powder Mill is an important example of a building and plant specially designed for explosives production. The mill is now isolated from the process of which it formed a part, but part of its context remains- the Kororoit Creek nearby.

The Black Powder Mill Today

In this setting, the Black Powder Mill is a different type of reminder of the efforts to preserve our democratic way of life. The building is a monument to all who worked in the wartime munitions industries of Melbourne’s west, the heart of Australian defence production at that time, and to the munition workers after World War Two.

Top of Page

The following text was provided by the Friends of the Black Powder Mill.

The Black Powder Mill must be preserved for the future as :

• It is unique in Australia and is of social, historic and scientific significance at a national level.
• No other 20th century gunpowder mill exists in Australia on its original site.
• It may be the last such gunpowder mill constructed for military purposes in the world and one of the few 20th century gunpowder-making buildings left in the world.
• It demonstrates the general design philosophy for explosives production in a dangerous industry. It features controlled destruction and safety zones, with reinforced concrete walls to direct any blast towards open space away from the remainder of the facility. It has frangible walls and roof to minimise fragment throw, with the electrical equipment located in a separate area to that in which the explosive compositions were processed.
• It is a symbol of the munitions industry in Melbourne’s west, and other parts of Australia, and the thousands of workers employed in that industry, especially in wartime and later as post-war migrants.
• It represents an important phase of industrial development in Melbourne’s western suburbs, which is fast disappearing.
• It represents other gunpowder facilities in the Deer Park area which were significant in the generation of Victoria’s wealth and prosperity in the mining, quarrying and construction industries.
• It represents an era when the now-suburban regions of Deer Park and St Albans were considered sufficiently remote from other residential areas to be able to have a potentially dangerous industry in their midst.
• It is the last remnant of the Albion Explosives Factory, which has been almost completely demolished since it ceased production in 1986.
• It is an added attraction to the area and in particular would be a point of interest on a heritage walk along Kororoit Creek.

For example, from 1997 to 2003, a world client-merchandise firm consistently generated annual growth in earnings per share (EPS) between eleven and sixteen p.c. Managers attributed the corporate’s success to improved efficiency. Impressed, investors pushed the corporate’s share price above that of its friends—unaware that the corporate was shortchanging its investment in product growth and brand building to inflate brief-term profits, at the same time as revenue growth declined. In 2003, managers were compelled to admit what they’d achieved. Not surprisingly, the corporate went by way of a painful period of rebuilding, and its inventory price took years to get better.

Study By Climate Change Skeptic Ends Up Proving Climate Change

What is even funnier than a global warming skeptic and physicist performing a study to disprove climate change that actually proves it? How about it being funded by the Koch brothers...
Back in 2010, Richard Muller, a Berkeley physicist and self-proclaimed climate skeptic, decided to launch the Berkeley Earth Surface Temperature (BEST) project to review the temperature data that underpinned global-warming claims. Remember, this was not long after the Climategate affair had erupted, at a time when skeptics were griping that climatologists had based their claims on faulty temperature data.

Muller’s stated aims were simple. He and his team would scour and re-analyze the climate data, putting all their calculations and methods online. Skeptics cheered the effort. “I’m prepared to accept whatever result they produce, even if it proves my premise wrong,” wrote Anthony Watts, a blogger who has criticized the quality of the weather stations in the United Statse that provide temperature data. The Charles G. Koch Foundation even gave Muller’s project $150,000 — and the Koch brothers, recall, are hardly fans of mainstream climate science.

So what are the end results? Muller’s team appears to have confirmed the basic tenets of climate science. Back in March, Muller told the House Science and Technology Committee that, contrary to what he expected, the existing temperature data was “excellent.” He went on: “We see a global warming trend that is very similar to that previously reported by the other groups.” And, today, the BEST team has released a flurry of new papers that confirm that the planet is getting hotter. As the team’s two-page summary flatly concludes, “Global warming is real.

I Truly Miss George Carlin

George Carlin explains as only he can why efforts like the ongoing "Occupy Wall Street" protests are so important. (NSFW)

There's a reason education sucks, and it's the same reason that it will never, ever, ever be fixed. It's never going to get any better, don't look for it, be happy with what you've got. Because the owners of this country don't want that. I'm talking about the real owners, now. The real owners, the big wealthy business interests that control things and make all the important decisions -- forget the politicians.
The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don't. You have no choice. You have owners. They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land, they own and control the corporations; they've long since bought and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the State houses, the City Halls; they've got the judges in their back pockets, and they own all the big media companies so they control just about all the news and information you get to hear. They gotcha by the balls.
They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying -- lobbying to get what they want. Well, we know what they want -- they want more for themselves and less for everybody else. But I'll tell you what they don't want. They don't want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don't want well-informed, well-educated people capable of critical thinking. They're not interested in that, that doesn't help them. That's against their interests. That's right. They don't want people who are smart enough to sit around the kitchen table and figure out how badly they're getting fucked by system that threw them overboard 30 fuckin' years ago. They don't want that. You know what they want? They want obedient workers.
People who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork, and just dumb enough to passably accept all these increasingly shittier jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, the reduced benefits, the end of overtime, and the vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it.
And now they're comin' for your Social Secuirty Money. They want your fuckin' retirement money. They want it back. So they can give it to their criminal friends on Wall Street. And you know something? They'll get it. They'll get it all from you sooner or later -- 'cuz they own this fuckin' place.
It's a big club. And you ain't in it. You and I are not in the big club. By the way, it's the same big club they use to beat you over the head with all day long when they tell you what to believe. All day long, beating you over the in their media telling you what to believe -- what to think -- and what to buy. The table is tilted, folks. The game is rigged. And nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care. Good honest hard-workin people -- white collar, blue collar -- doesn't matter what color shirt you have on. Good honest hard-workin people continue -- these are people of modest means -- continue to elect these rich cocksuckers who don't give a fuck about them.
They don't give a fuck about you, they don't give a fuck about you. they don't care about you -- at all. You know? And nobody seems to notice, nobody seems to care ... that's what the owners count on, the fact that Americans will probably remain willfully ignorant of the big red, white and blue dick that's being jammed up their assholes every day. Because the owners of this country know the truth.
It's called the American Dream ... 'cuz you have to be asleep to believe it.
Thanks to PZ Myers

Back to Normal

Having a book released is sort of like Christmas. There’s the long, build up, and when finally the day arrives, you rush to see if Santa left good responses or a lump of coal. You’re able to maybe coast for a while on the excitement of it all, but then comes the day when the decorations come down and everything returns to normal.

And so it’s back to normal here. The only thing noteworthy that has happen recently was my brother’s birthday, where I got to razz him on always being older than me. Then, of course, my sisters can do the same to me, brats that they are. In my family we’re equal opportunity razzers.

The Reckoning Flames is coming along—Rabbit has found himself in a predicament and it’ll be interesting to see how it resolves. While I generally know a story’s beginning and end, the middle is a wild, uncharted terrority with the plots taking twists and turns that surprise even me. As far as I’m concerned, that’s the best part of writing—having your characters come alive and shock the heck out of you.

At my last post, I had fully intended to start A Game of Thrones, but I’d come across some books by Mark del Franco, his Connor Grey series. They’re urban fantasy but instead of the usual vampires and werewolves, it’s chock full of druids, elves, fairies, dwarfs and other fae. I’ve plowed through three of them and am going to get the fourth. The Abigail Adams murder mystery also arrived—though I discovered that it wasn’t written by Barbara Hambly, but by Barbara Hamilton. Ah, well. It received very good reviews, so I expect to enjoy it anyway while I wait for Ms. Hambly’s new Benjamin January book to be released. I’ve also picked up Diana Gabaldon’s latest in the Jaime and Claire saga. In all, my reading calendar has beome rather full, so Mr. Martin has been placed back on the shelf until another time.

  1. Just to let you know Barbara Hambly is writing as Barbara Hamilton.

  2. you cant honestly leave George R R Martin on the shelf Lorna, bad craic! Its a great work of art.

  3. Ah! Wondered how it ended up on my search page. Thanks!

    And by the way, the book was excellent.

  4. Hi Phil,

    I'll get to Mr. Martin. I have all four of his books waiting for that perfect moment to dive in.

  5. I just finished reading the third book....I was heart broken when it got pulled from publication last time and was joyous when I found your website yesterday and saw that it was available! I finished your book in an hour then went back and re-read it slowly for savoring! Lovely job! I loved seeing the relationship between the king and rabbit develop at the the end....hopefully, there will be more of that to come....part of growing up is in the realizing that our idols are much more complex people than we see...Suiden, etc...
    Again, congrats on the fabulous book! Keep writing...pages are only blank until you fill them :)

  6. Thank you thank you thank for writing these books. I just found out you had a blog and I had to come by. I hope you try out Jim Butcher/Patricia Briggs as well if you liked Conner Grey. Good luck with the next book I can't wait to read it :)

  7. Just picked up the third book and can't wait to get started on my series re-read. Funny enough, I have to finish the 4th Connor Grey book first (his publication date beat yours so he got the first series re-read heh).

    I would also recommend Magic Bites by Ilona Andrews for another great urban fantasy series.

  8. I just discovered and devoured your first three books and enjoyed them a ton. I'll definitely be recommending them to all my friends. :) Good luck with the writing, I'm very much looking forward to book four!

In the Spring of Five Hundred Tulips

In the Spring of five hundred tulips
the butterfly arrived again.
A brief flying visit
to examine the cherry and birch
before her summer sojourn.
I did see her.
I did not imagine her.
But that was weeks ago.
The tulips are fading now,
blown out, rusty at the edges,
pouting at the heat
creeping in.
We put out worms
for the birds, dried and brittle,
but it was the monkjack
who ate the tulips,
a feast of five hundred tulips,
while we waited and watched
the end of Spring.

Rain is in the earth today.
I am walking on rain today.
Hot yellow daisies grow fast
and thick around my feet.
And where the cherry tree stands,
the green is littered with white starlight.
Fallen blossom everywhere.
I am walking on stars.
And reading aloud from the stories of saints
to the listening birds and flies and worms...

I will be in hospital as you read this, attached to the drips for monoclonal antibody therapy.
I haven't been doing much lately, just hurting, like an ancient grandfather clock that needs winding soon. What is that lovely English saying? I am running Out of Puff!

So for now, I shall walk on a little more. On rain. And fallen stars.

Real Women Have Curves

Real women who jump,
start revolutions
Her feet mark earth
when they fall.

Real women have curves,
dreams, tears,
places to store
the unbroken seams
of her identities.

Hijabi pilots, poets,
new world leaders,
queens, ministers,
saints and healers.

Real women have curves,
throw curves,
Arc the courses
of other lives
Are loathed or envied
or villified
Become saintly
and sanctified

though she never aspired
to inspire
the quiet housewife
to fire.

- Shaista Tayabali, 2009

The title of this piece is also the title of a play by Josefina Lopez, which was eventually made into a film starring America Ferrera - both are just wonderful!

Hanami sakura

Spring which starts in March and stays till May is a very busy period in Japan. It is the season when the most beautiful festival of Hanami is celebrated. The Sakura trees (or the cherry blossoms) all over Japan come into bloom for between seven to ten days. People hold outdoor parties to view the cherry blossoms.

Emperor Sage of the Heian period held flower-viewing parties with sake and feasted underneath the blossoming boughs of sakura trees in the Imperial Court in Kyoto. Poems were written praising the delicate flowers, which were seen as a metaphor for life itself, luminous, beautiful, fleeting, ephemeral.

Can one celebrate Hanami even when tragedy occurs? Can one bear the joy of new beginnings all around when one has lost or is grieving?

I ask this because the beloved Japanese family who housed and adopted my younger brother when he was teaching in Japan, have suffered a tragedy. Their younger daughter Yuki, my brother's friend, has died unexpectedly of a massive heart attack.

This is my Hanami sakura poem for her, and for my brother.

Yuki, the cherry tree
is quietly blooming now
but the wind is so impatient
some petals are floating down.

my mother and I
stood in the doorway
watching the willow
Green leaves are perfect in spring.

the scent of rain is here
I am drinking hot tea
sweet with memories
and listening to birds sing.

Yuki, the cherry tree
is empty now
the wind stole all the petals
but the earth is full
with warm white snow
and I know
you will return soon.
The cherry tree
will bloom again
and I know
you will return soon.

Easter, A Moveable Feast

From the blog post of April 12th, Easter Sunday
Day 40. Forty days and forty nights. Wasn't Jesus tested for forty days and nights before Gethsemane? The central line tubing in my jugular was placed successfully but the three access tubes connected to the main catheter weigh heavy on my neck. The last four days have been so unbearable that I too feel I have been abandoned and forsaken by the One I trusted to watch over me and ease my suffering.

I have been remembering my Easter of a year ago. It was a special time, unforgettable. Many of the days and nights of my 84 days in hospital are remembered now only through my blog, through moments of lucid poetry. But the Easter weekend is clear. I had a new consultant, a temporary Easter consultant. And he was extraordinarily kind to me. He arrived at the hospital every day, on his bike, to see me. He would stride quickly into the room, greet my father respectfully, draw up a chair, and smile. "Now Shaista, what are you up to today?!!"
And I would release pent up passion and vociferous semi-medical jargon, making completely unreasonable demands such as, "Are you with me or against me?" and reasonable demands such as, "I need a blood transfusion now!"

We mark our lives by different anniversaries. Easter is one of mine. I am here. Alive. How could it be otherwise on a day of resurrection? How do you give thanks for the miracle of life?

I read something interesting today about the holy city of Jerusalem. As you know, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre is the ultimate destination for any Jerusalem pilgrimage, and six Christian denominations consider themselves its custodians - the Roman Catholics, the Greek Orthodox, Armenian apostolics, the Coptics, Ethiopians and the Syriacs. But did you also know that for a thousand years, since the time of Saladdin, the main entrance to the Church has been entrusted to two Muslim families, the Joudeh, who have the key, and the Nusseibeh, who have been custodians since the days of Caliph Omar in 637. A Joudeh family member is still on hand twice a day to bring the key to the door which is locked and unlocked by a Nusseibeh.

This beautiful merging of unexpected histories, the unimaginable kindnesses of being human, the resurrection of hope, this is Easter for me.

Open my Eyes, Lord

Sermon from February 17, 2016

Mid-week Lenten Series - "Open My Life, Lord"

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and our Lord and Savior who is Jesus the Christ.

When I was on internship in Alabama I was able to go to the Southeastern Synod’s Assembly in Chattanooga that year. It was about 2.5 hours from where we were living at the time and it began on a Sunday afternoon. After worship that day, I said my goodbyes to Erin and drove through the mountains to get to Tennessee. I didn’t stop and made really good time. Needless to say – I was starving when I got there. I stopped at a Jimmy John’s restaurant and began devouring my sandwich as I looked out at the park just beyond the restaurant’s windows.

That park was full of people – full. But, I noticed that there was something ‘off’ with those gathered there. They weren’t lounging or relaxing. Instead, they were a bit ‘dirty’ if you want to call it that and there were a lot of shopping carts filled with items in them. It dawned on me that they were homeless. They gathered and lived there. And here I was eating my sandwich and staring right at them. I remember saying a brief prayer for them, but thinking to myself ‘I’m really busy, I wish there was something I could do, but there really are too many of them and it would be unfair for me to only help one or so…’ So, I prayed, finished my sandwich, and headed to the assembly hall.

I never saw them again. I never noticed them again.

It wasn’t because I was in the assembly hall the whole time. In fact, I was probably more active around that city than anyone else since I was the ‘bishop’s minion’ during that time. Running errands, fetching coffee, having conversations with him as he walked to the restroom so others wouldn’t disturb and stop him as he was on a strict time schedule, running in the morning and during break times around the city, going out with friends and colleagues at night during free time. Yet, I never noticed those in the park again.

It wasn’t because they weren’t there anymore. They still were. It wasn’t because they had ‘cleaned up’ and didn’t stand out as before. They still did.

No – for me – they faded into the background of the city because I was too busy to notice or care enough. I was having fun at the assembly and I was blinded by my own selfishness to notice those in need around me. Again, I’m not sure there was anything that I could do – but we did have over 400 people gathered there that week – faithful and faith-filled – individuals. I’m sure there was something we could do – anything to help them in their time of need.

But, no. I was blinded. We were without sight.

I thought about that experience as I read these scripture readings and thought about our theme for this even – Lord, Open My Eyes.

I thought and I wondered what we have difficulty seeing within our community. Difficulty seeing because we don’t care to look? Are we too proud to notice? Are we too naïve to think about? Are we, too busy to take the time? We come up with so many excuses as to why we can’t open our eyes to see the needs of those around us. We find ways to keep ourselves from noticing and taking action.

And then – when there are those opportunities where our eyes cannot help, but notice the need, the hurt, the crying around us – it hurts us. It hurts us because we become angry that someone is shifting our worldview in a way that challenges how we normally see the world. It hurts us to know that there are those in the world – in our country – in our community – who are in such need and we’ve fallen from God’s call to help them in their time of need…

And then, we hear this story from Acts about Paul and we are challenged further. For Paul saw plenty of people. He saw those who were ‘bad,’ who were ‘wrong,’ who were ‘better off dead’ than living. Paul was zealous in his persecution of those who were different from him. I hear this story and cannot help but, notice that there are many within our world who hold the same ‘fanatical’ views that Paul once did as he persecuted those who followed Christ. How our own country and history are full of those zealous to ‘deal’ with those who were different than the majority.

We have all fallen into that same way of life that Paul once did. Thankfully – from what I know – no one has gone to the lengths that Saul did before his conversion. I don’t know of anyone standing by as people in the community were stoned to death recently here in Newberry.

So, we come this evening and we ask the Lord to open our lives. In this beginning we ask the Lord to help open our eyes. To open our eyes to see the world as Christ sees. To see the hurt and the need. To see the opportunity to be in service to those around us. To see that those before us are fellow sisters and brothers. To see that all of creation is a blessing and a beautiful creature of God; plants, animals, our neighbors.

Our perspective changes. Our worldview shifts when we begin to see the world through the eyes of Christ. And that shift of perspective is scary. It opens us up to new ways of approaching life and neighbor. It opens us up to be in deeper relationship with those around us – real relationship. A relationship of hospitality and love. A relationship of true and full community.

A worldview that says no to the loud voices around us that asks/demands/expects us to view others as dangerous, as unworthy, as wrong, as not whole. We re-turn to the one who sees us for who we are; beautiful creations. We re-turn to the one who calls for us to see as the Lord sees; to care for all those we see because God ‘sees’ them too; just as God sees each and every one of us.

We come this evening, acknowledging that we all have not been able to see – to see the hurt and need; to see the beauty of the Lord in the faces and lives of those around us. We come this evening asking, “Open my eyes, O Lord… open my eyes…” Amen…

the one where Jesus gives us peace...

Sermon from April 3, 2016

Text: John 20: 19-31

Grace and peace to y’all from God our Creator and our Lord Jesus who is the Christ – will y’all pray with me? Let the words of my mouth and the meditations of all our hearts be acceptable in your sight O Lord, our rock and our redeemer; amen!

Traditionally as we read this text – which if you didn’t know comes up every year during this, the second Sunday of Easter – we’ve heard it titled in a pretty specific way. It’s a title to this short excerpt from John’s Gospel that has painted an individual within this story in a very particular way, and not in a very flattering light. But, if you’ve been listening to me during my short time here as your pastor – you probably already know how I might feel about the titles that we are given for all of those well-known Gospel stories. I don’t really like how many of the ‘titles’ of particular parts of the gospel story have been labeled. They keep us from really reading them again and again because once it’s titled it is difficult to see past that one interpretation of the text.

The gospel story we have this morning is one that is very familiar to us and it occurs immediately after the resurrection of our Lord. In fact, it occurs that very night.

But, something is a bit strange, something seems off. Jesus’ friends and disciples have been given the most amazing news possible. Their Lord, their friend – the messiah and Son of God – is no longer in the tomb because he lives again. He has risen! You would think that the disciples and followers of the Risen Jesus would be out in force within the streets. Screaming to all who could hear:

Jesus has overcome death.

Jesus has turned from zero to hero.

Jesus is alive!

You’d think that would be something to celebrate. In fact, just look at our last Sunday on Easter morning. This place was packed as was pretty much every other place of worship around the country and world. We came together and sang hymns of praise and celebration. We continued (and continue) to shout alleluia from the mountaintops of our lives! We shout he is risen! We still wish those around us a happy and blessed Easter. All the candles within our worship space are lit. The excitement and presence of the Holy Spirit is palpable.

You’d think that the excitement at the news of our Lord’s rising from the dead and the empty tomb would last longer than a few hours.

Yet, that evening the disciples are scared.

They’ve locked themselves in a room away from those who would wish to do them harm.

The dangers and ‘realities’ of life seem more powerful and threatening than the joy of the empty tomb.

Just a few hours after the news of Jesus’ resurrection, his closest friends and disciples are in the midst of confusion, anxiety, and fear. The collective sense of ‘what do we do now?’ and ‘where do we go from here?’ are driving their thoughts and actions. They are witness to the greatest wonder of the world, yet they aren’t out there proclaiming it – instead they are holed up in a locked room out of fear of those around them.

Now, because of how this part of the gospel has been titled, there is a tendency to just look at those disciples (not just the one) and think, ‘oh bless their little hearts…’ in the most flattering-insult tone we can muster.

But, then if we are prone to do that (which I’m sure each and every one of us probably has at one point in their life) I’d push us all a little bit.

If we look upon the disciples in our text this morning and think, “Oh those silly and foolish disciples – they still don’t get it!” I’d ask you, “so – what you’d you do on Easter Monday? How was your week in proclaiming the risen Lord to all those around you?” Does the energy and excitement from Easter Sunday still flow through you today?

My guess is that after Easter Sunday a lot of that excitement fizzled out. Sure we filled our social media feeds with countless pictures of flowers, scripture texts, and wrote and responded to countless posts of “Christ is Risen! He is risen indeed! Alleluia!”

But, the pull and the drain of the world quickly sucks us back in. The brief glimmer of hope and grace of the resurrection gets drowned out by the world and its attitudes around us. For the briefest of moments; the locked doors of our lives were opened to the wonder, mystery, and beauty of the resurrection.

But, then the fears and those doors that we hoped to burst open and through came back again.

When given the opportunity to tell someone about God’s love for them – we might’ve thought – “oh they probably already know that. Easter was yesterday. I’m sure they went to their church.”

We may have read something on the internet or heard from a friend about a story that continued to disparage those who are different – that didn’t live into the new commandment of love that we have been given by Christ. We didn’t push back from that line of that and those words of hate because – well, that’s just Doug – he doesn’t really mean it. Stacy is just joking like usual. Besides if I said anything I’d probably just make things worse.

We might have seen someone in need on the side of the road, but we didn’t stop to help because well – they are probably just conning me and others. If I help, it’ll only give them reason to keep doing it.

Or perhaps you want to proclaim and shout and give voice to God’s love in the lives of those around you, but because of what you might suffer from it holds you back.

I can’t proclaim the love of God in Christ our Lord because I don’t feel worthy of God’s love or don’t think there are those that love me. Why would they listen?

I want to point to the resurrection, but I really don’t know how to explain it all and I’m scared of the questions that they might ask me. I don’t want to look stupid.

I want to believe and to share – but, I’m afraid – afraid of what others might think, or say, or ask for. I’m afraid because I have questions and thoughts. It all seems too good to be true. If I don’t have it figured out, how am I supposed to invite others into this life too?

No matter how we hear and experience the resurrection and are called to be witnesses like those first women at the tomb – the locked doors of our lives and our minds seem so strong and sturdy. Impenetrable to the love that God exudes in Christ’s resurrection for us.

Much like Jesus’ disciples, we too find ourselves behind those locked doors.

We too seek the ‘data’ that Thomas asks for.

We step back, we don’t move. We stay locked in the room – even amid the crazy excitement and energy of this new thing that God has done.

And then in pops Jesus.

In our story – pretty literally.

Jesus appears in the room with his friends in spite of the locked doors.

Now, if I was there I probably wouldn’t be too excited. I’d probably be freaking out.

One, because Jesus is there and the door never opened.

Two, because I’m in here and not out there spreading the news.

I’m sure the disciples have the racing thought of, “Oh man, we are so going to get it now…”

Yet, Jesus’ words to his friends and disciples is not one of anger or rudeness or snark or disappointment. Instead Jesus speaks the words that I think all of us need to hear and listen to. Those words that burst through locked doors and fill those ‘rooms’ of our lives where we hide with love and presence.

Peace be with you.

Words so important to hear that Jesus says it twice.

Peace be with you. I’m with you. I send you. The Spirit leads you.

He then comes again the following week to give that sense of peace and presence to Thomas. He doesn’t chastise him or belittle him. Jesus gives to him what he needs to continue to point to the risen Lord.

Throughout our lives – even in the midst of the excitement and energy of Easter – we still find ourselves behind the locked doors of our lives. The locked doors and tombs that seem so stubborn and real to us. Those places in which we hide for fear of how others will see us, view us, or treat us.

Those locked rooms have so many names – fear. Anxiety. Addiction. Stubbornness. Disease. And more.

In the promise and reality of the resurrection – Jesus steps into those locked rooms of our lives. Jesus bursts open the doors with words of peace, presence, and mission.

Peace be with you.

I’m here.

I send you.

We do hide within the locked doors of our lives. We do shut ourselves off from the world even when we hear the grace-filled news of the resurrection.

Jesus continues to step into those moments. Bringing us peace, reminding us of his presence, and sending us out.

Not alone. But with the guidance of the Holy Spirit and in the community of the Body of Christ.

No matter how strong of a lock or how encompassing of a room in your life that you feel keeps you from proclaiming the good news of the resurrection; know that Jesus comes into that space. Not to chastise, not to reprimand. Not to demean or belittle.

Jesus steps into those rooms to free us from the bonds and chains that shackle us into inactivity. That keep us from being sent. Jesus steps into those moments and places and offers us peace. Jesus has breathed into us the Holy Spirit that guides us in this life of faith – this life of faith that calls and compels us to speak, act, and live out for and in God’s love for us and the world.

Even in our doubts Jesus doesn’t turn from us or turn us away. Jesus comes to give peace so that we might know we are loved and not alone. In that faith of the empty tomb and in that promise of the resurrection – we are sent to proclaim. Amen.
