The xf86-input-synaptics 1.9.2 driver was also released with various fixes. Plus other build updates and minor items in this release. This 2.0 release removes the Linux support given that there is superior support within xf86-input-evdev and xf86-input-libinput. The xf86-input-keyboard 2.0 driver was released for primarily non-Linux X.Org systems like Solaris and BSDs. There were also some vintage X.Org DDX driver updates too. Xmodmap 1.0.11, xpr 1.1, xscope 1.43, and xwud 1.0.6 also were released with various minor fixes.

Xconsole 1.0.8 for an X11 window that displays messages sent to the /dev/console. Various bug fixes and other minor code fixes here. Xcmsdb 1.0.6 was released for this software handling Device Color Characterization data. This release has various bug updates, compiler warning fixes, and other minor items. Xclipboard 1.1.4 was released for this utility to collect and display text selections that are sent to the X11 CLIPBOARD by other clients. Or it's just extra summertime maintenance. Given Coopersmith working on this now, perhaps Oracle is working on shipping a big update of X.Org packages for Solaris - which in the past has been motivation for getting out new versions. Other items include addressing warnings with newer compilers, build system updates, changes for the long-completed X.Org/ GitLab migration, and other random small fixes. Perhaps most notable with this weekend's releases is the xf86-video-keyboard 2.0 release that drops Linux support. For the most part the new versions are just collecting the few random fixes to be collected over the past few years. While no new X.Org "katamari" releases are planned for a collection of all the X.Org component updates combined, this weekend longtime X.Org contributor Alan Coopersmith of Oracle issued many new updates to various old, seldom-maintained X.Org projects.Ī slew of X.Org packages that rarely see new releases and go years without any measurable activity were updated.

With the help of “From Teilhard to Omega’s” expert team we can (re-)discover the power of Christ’s love that will ‘lead us onward to a new reality.’Īfter reading the review, I am more excited to read the book.Įnter your email address to follow this blog and receive notifications of new posts by email. As it concludes (p.240), we are immersed in the adventure of evolution and as humanity are at ‘the growing tip of this evolutionary trend’. Be prepared to be challenged and changed by it. So for those who last read Teilhard back when his writing first started coming into regular print, or for those who have heard of him but not read him, I thoroughly recommend this book. Motion, Time and Place According to William Ockham This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important and is part of the knowledge base. William of Ockham - Sketch labelled 'frater Occham iste', from a manuscript of Ockhams Summa Logicae, 1341 William of Ockham joined the Franciscan order at a young age. ![]() All our ordinary actions, like walking, eating, speaking, and the others. Given the reality of evolution, we too must be committed to finding God in the Christocentric future towards which we are inevitably moving. The facts concerning habit are a commonplace of our every-day existence. God is committed to that change for, as creator, He imparted it, sustains the world in change, and in Christ is its goal. For an account of Ockhams life, including a discussion of how these dates are calculated in Ockhams case, see Wood 1997, Chap. It has been, is, and for as long as it exists will be, changing. The collection as a whole expounds Teilhard’s conviction, one based on his science, that the world in which we live is not something static. Delio chose her experts carefully and so we are presented with a series of wonderful essays through which we can better understand Teilhard, but the real challenge of this book is to assimilate its words into one’s person and practice. ![]() In “From Teilhard to Omega”, the Franciscan theologian and scientist, Ilia Delio, has challenged thirteen experts on Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (1881-1955) to update for a new generation the writings of this French Jesuit and paleoanthropologist.

I was hoping to have a series of book reviews over the Northern Hemisphere summer. ![]() It wants to change its permit so it can produce up to 250,000 gallons annually, a county report said. Despite the limit, it produced 170,590 gallons in 2012 and 116,580 gallons in 2015. Opus One is permitted to produce up to 110,000 gallons of wine annually. Green lawns slant upward to meet the walls of the front building, which seems to be rising out of the earth with some of the landscape still clinging to it. Located in Oakville in the heart of Napa Valley, the winery makes only one wine.The building itself opened in 1991 and is one of the more striking sights along Highway 29. Wine legends Robert Mondavi and Baron Philippe de Rothschild founded Opus One in 1979. “I think it is a well-designed change for this winery that is minimally impactful,” Commissioner Michael Basayne said before the commission granted unanimous approval. Opus One wins expansion approval - Opus One winery convinced county Planning Commissioners on Wednesday that its success warrants doubling wine production and making other changes, despite some public concerns about cumulative impacts. A supremely age-worthy wine, it will delight now and for many years to come.Ĭabernet Sauvignon 80%, Petit Verdot 9%, Cabernet Franc 5%, Merlot 5%, and Malbec 1% The fine-grained, plush tannins evolve into a long, supple finish. This seductive wine shows flavors of black cassis, black cherry and a hint of cocoa powder. The juicy entry offers a round, silky mouthfeel with just enough acidity to complement the satin texture. The Opus One 2017 offers a harmonious aromatic balance of rich dark fruit, stems of roses, and earthy forest floor. Superb flavors and excellent ripening led to an earlier than expected harvest, which commenced on the 5th of September. Despite Mother Nature’s variability, favorable weather in August provided optimal conditions for fruit development and maturation. The summer, in turn, was warm and punctuated by occasional heat waves. Increased soil moisture allowed for healthy vine growth and development. The abundant rainfall continued into March, causing a modest delay in budbreak, and pushing bloom back by two weeks. Sassicaia is the most famous Bordeaux blend in Italy and has spawned many imitations, whereby the blend is now firmly established in the New World and particularly in California and Australia.The winter of 2017 ended a five-year drought with January recording the most rainfall in over 20 years. ![]() In St-Emilion and Pomerol, the blends are Merlot dominated as Cabernet Sauvignon can struggle to ripen there - when it is included, it adds structure and body to the wine. However 100% Cabernet Sauvignon wines can be slightly hollow-tasting in the middle palate and Merlot with its generous, fleshy fruit flavours acts as a perfect foil by filling in this cavity. It is particularly suited to the dry, warm, free- draining, gravel-rich soils and is responsible for the redolent cassis characteristics as well as the depth of colour, tannic structure and pronounced acidity of Médoc wines. In the Médoc and Graves the percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend can range from 95% ( Mouton-Rothschild) to as low as 40%. This is actually the archetypal Bordeaux blend, though in different proportions in the sub-regions and sometimes topped up with Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and Petit Verdot. Cabernet Sauvignon lends itself particularly well in blends with Merlot. ![]() Uninstall TextExpander 5.1.4 via its uninstaller Click on the delete button at the top left corner, and then the program's package will be removed from the LaunchpadĢ.Hold down the icon until all of icons start to jiggle.Click on Launchpad icon in the Dock, and locate the TextExpander 5.1.4's icon.If the app is running on your computer, right-click on its icon on the Dock, and select Quit.Specific steps to remove the app (got from the App Store): If you got this TextExpander 5.1.4 application via the Mac App Store, there is a specific way to allow you delete it on the computer, but it is not available for removing the apps which are belonging to the OS X itself, such as the Safari.

Currently, Hardcore Fitness is one of the fastest-growing private companies in the US, with locations all over the country. Despite this, we made sure that our staff got paid on time, and the gym kept going as we had to struggle to launch the business so many times.”įighting against all odds, big- or small-scale, the Nolan family successfully re-launched their business. It was quite a frustrating phase of our lives. “The worst we lost our home that same year. Here, at this point, the Nolan family was struggling to keep things afloat finances-wise while tackling small-scale but pesky matters such as water line rupture, power outage, etc. It felt that I was defeated therefore, broken.” Apparently, we had hit the water line running beneath the building. ![]() Yet again, something terrible as a flood hit my new establishment. “We worked round the clock for a few weeks to ensure things are in the right place. As they say in the first movie of the Batman Trilogy: “Sometimes things just go bad.” To re-launch the business, they ran from pillar to post and faced numerous roadblocks. Nolan launched their first establishment, but things did not go their way. Eventually, we sold what we had to get a little cash to restart.” On top of that, we had been open for a short time, and a client in real estate alerted us that the building was foreclosed, and in a few weeks, a padlock would be on the door. “Worse part we started, and a month later, the recession hit. We worked day and night to build this gym and put every penny into it.” “We had our first-ever vacation planned as a couple and had to cancel it because this (own program) panned out, and we got to sign the lease. But running a business is not for the faint of heart. This is how Hardcore Fitness Boot Camp was set up.”Įstablishing a business is a piece of cake anyone can do it as they say. “During this process, I met my now wife Nadia Nolan as a client, and she gave me the confidence and pushed me to start my program. From fighting his illness to transforming his body shape to looking to train others speaks volumes about his grit and courage. ![]() It was during this time when he decided to be a personal trainer at a fitness facility. “I decided not to take any medication as I had watched ‘Rocky 5’ and Jean-Claud van dam and wanted to be like them.” But his iron will of transforming his strength came to fruition, even though he was advised to stay away from such activities. ![]() Larry Nolan, as a teenager, was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and Raynaud’s phenomena-a circulatory disorder. Put simply, his story strengthens your belief system as a whole that ‘nothing is impossible.’ Quite inspiring! Larry Nolan is the Chris Nolan (Hollywood) of the fitness industry in terms of productivity and perseverance.Ĭonverting a problem into an opportunity is something that separates a genius mind from the rest. As a journalist, I don’t think ‘rags’ usage is appropriate in this context, but he did lose most of his assets before making it to the top. In the previous article, ‘Our Patent-Pending I.L.I.F.T System Allows us to be the Only one in the World to Debunk the Age-Old Notion that Fitness Goals cannot be Achieved in a Group Setting,’ Larry Nolan, founder and CEO of Hardcore Fitness Boot Camp, stated that “with the never-give-up attitude, we have made it to the list of fastest-growing private companies in the US, with locations all over the country.” Here I expand on that statement, explaining how Mr. “Besides I.L.I.F.T, we’ve got a new model in the works that combines different fitness sectors into one service unlike anyone has done, and we call it the hybrid model.” The list goes on and on this game leans so heavily on these so-called "gritty", "mature" themes because at it's core, it's a slow, repetitive, boring game with a world that's as lifeless as the forgettable story and 1-dimensional characters. As for sexuality, this game is rife with it, which usually isn't a problem, but feels like a disgrace when you realize the trilogy of REAL Thief games never needed to be carried by countless nude statues, brothel levels, naked opium-addicts moaning on couches together, men violently abusing prostitutes in a brothel run by an aggressive transvestite, dominatrixes spanking intoxicated men, etc. The player finds many levels with opium in them, and even uses it to restore their mana. ![]() For whatever reason, opium is a central theme is this game, as is rampant sexuality. In this poor excuse for a Thief game, characters constantly swear like sailors in really forced, bad voice-acting, and it's not the funny and creative "Taffer" of yesteryear nope, just classic f-bombs to break you right outta your immersion. The original trilogy told an amazing story through great characters, flawless gameplay, and no "mature" themes to lean on. Now I get to the worst thing about this game, ESPECIALLY compared to the original trilogy.how MATURE and GROWN-UP and COOL it thinks it is. Oh, and in case this isn't cringey enough, he lives in a clocktower where he talks to ravens. Where the original Garrett was a street-smart orphan who was FORCED to steal, this new Garrett is an edgy, narcissistic, kleptomaniacal wannabe-bad-boy who steals for no other reason than that he CAN because the "shadows are his allies" or something. The characters are awful all your allies are reused tropes with nothing interesting or compelling, and the main protagonist is NOTHING like the original Garrett. There I just summed up every bit of depth and intrigue the plot has. Team up with beggars and outcasts to stop them by stealing stuff. Bad people found a magic crystal and are using it to do bad things, like making your annoying apprentice vanish and causing you to smack your face into a pillar. The gameplay forces stealth, but does a bad job of it with inconsistent AI that sometimes seems psychic, and other times totally dead to the upled with Garrett's equally inconsistent stamina meter and limited options compared to the trilogy I mentioned above. ![]() Quests involve finding an item at the end of a linear path, and bringing it back to someone. To start off with, the game's setting is very linear and boring the large, dystopian city is NOT open for exploration, and you'll find invisible walls blocking you in many areas, unless you have the right quests. Before I hear "It's not SUPPOSED to be part of the trilogy!!", the trailers marketed it as "I'm Garrett.did you miss me?", so since the game is comparing itself to the trilogy, I'll do the same thing. This game is NOT part of the canon of these games, and is basically a ripoff/reinterpretation of the original franchise's core concept. ![]() There is a lot of drug references to smoking and alcohol as well.įirst of all, let me highly recommend Thief: Gold, Thief 2: The Metal Age, and Thief: Deadly Shadows. Other than the extremely unnecessary sexual content, the story is really good! Unfortunately, the sexual content cannot be ignored or avoided. This content is never directly experienced (Though the choice was definitely prescribed to you), so I had to mute my screen and remove my precious subtitles in order to ignore it which for a stealth video game, is like diving underwater without goggles. Throughout the level, you can hear the couple on the other side of the room engaging in sexual activity. One level features Garrett sneaking through a one of the brothels itself. The levels are well designed, but this game features a lot of sexual content: Naked paintings of women, prostitutes, and brothels are featured in the game. The story seems easy as you begin, but gets ramped up as the heat would to a real thief. The game features excellent gameplay and mechanics. Players will steal, climb and sneak their way through the streets of a rotting city. ![]() Thief (2014) is a game that follows Garrett through a story surrounding mysticism and darkness.

I tried labeling them for you in the photo above (the strands aren’t actually present on my math wall). This created a natural “categorization” to help my students easily navigate the wall. For children learning to read, check out our free Wordwall Blends and Diagraph cards here. For extended learning cut the photo part away from the word to create matching game for children. I like to keep my words organized, and this year I decided to organize them by Common Core strand. Wordwalls are a great way to build vocabulary, and these cards can be displayed in a center activity after the days lesson. This also means that I place them on our Meeting Area easel during the introduction, and later move them to their permanent place on the Math Word Wall. Feature walls created using a removable wallpaper look amazing in kids rooms. Since my math word wall is on a magnetic white board, I use magnetic tape (or cut up the magnetic business card stickers from Staples) to hold them up. Wall Stickers For Kids Easy To Apply, 100 Removable, Many Styles AND Customisable Wall decals for kids can bring a pop of colour, be educational, inspiring, or bring the design of the room together. Just like our ELA word wall, we start the year off empty (it doesn’t make sense to put up a bunch of words that mean nothing to them yet!) Even though I would love our classroom to look finished on the first day of school, it’s important to introduce things slowly, and give students ownership over the information that goes up in their classroom.Įach time we came across a new term in a lesson, I pulled out a new math card. ![]() It looked nothing like this at the beginning! Mind you, this is how it looked at the end of the year. I now love my math wall and it has become a great focus wall and point of reference for my students.
