Social media and e-promotion
1. Facebook 'Like' and 'Tweet this' buttons
Each of the articles on the website has a Facebook 'Like" button and a 'Tweet' button, plus a number of other social share buttons.
If you have a Facebook™ account, you can click on the 'Like' button and the article gets distributed to your friends via your Facebook wall. This means you can promote various bands/shows and get the message out about the club in a simple way to more people.
Be sure to comment on events and let people know you'll be going along.
The same applies to the 'Tweet' button. If you have a twitter account, simply click the 'Tweet' button and sign in to twitter. The article title and a link will then be sent to your followers.
2. Facebook Group Pages
If you are a member of, or own, a Facebook group page that is music-related, please share our Facebook event listings and posts on those pages. Again, this will help spread the word far and wide.
3. Photos
When you visit the Perth Blues Club, take a selfie or other image showing people having fun and post it on your Instagram and/or Pinterest pages as well as your regular Facebook page using the hash-tag #perthblues.
Make sure you also use the "check-in" feature.
4. Review & Ratings Websites
If you've had a good time at the Club, post a review on sites such as tripadvisor™ to encourage others to visit. Again, there's nothing better than a personal recommendation.
4. Banner ads
From time to time, we create special Banner Ads for specific events and we'll post them, with the code, on a separate page. These will link either to details about the event on the PBC website or to the location where tickets can be bought.
We also have a number of general banner ads that can be used on websites and in email footers - in fact anywhere online. These will link to the PBC website's homepage.
5. QR Codes
A QR code (abbreviation for Quick Response code) is a specific matrix barcode (or two-dimensional code) that is readable by dedicated QR barcode readers, and smart phones such as Blackberry, iPhone and Android. The code consists of black modules arranged in a square pattern on a white background. The information encoded may be text, URL, or other data.
It is a simple way of sending or posting information about places and events as it can lead the user to a website, photo, general text or phone number where they can obtain the details.
These are just some of the ways in which you can help promote the Perth Blues Club. We hope you can at least use one of these methods (preferably more) to help us grow our membership so we can provide more music events and better services to our members.
Thanks for taking the time.

worship & sermons
Music Ministry
Music Ministry at TheJOURNEY is more than just performance. Whether we are playing an instrument or lifting our voices in song. It is not for our enjoyment, but it is our way of glorifying our Creator. We have a mandate from the Lord to lift Him up, and when the children of God join in song our worship takes flight. As the people of God sing songs of praise, and as worship flows from our hearts, the presence of God fills His house and the Body of Christ is encouraged, strengthened, healed, and delivered.
Psalm 150:6 says, "Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord!" We are determined to excel in Praise! The Praise & Worship Team ministers and leads praise and worship in our Sunday services and in special services throughout the year. Our Children's Choir helps to lead in worship at least four times each year.
Our primary purpose and commitment is to worship God thought music and to lead others into the presence of the Lord, where burdens are removed, yokes are destroyed, and where Jesus Christ is glorified. Whether we are rocking out with modern praise music, or singing the mighty hymns of our faith, our music ministry teams know that their role merely to facilitate the congregation as we all join together to bless the heart of God. The LORD is our audience and the congregation is the choir. It is not the mission of the music ministry teams to entertain, but simply to help create the environment in which all of God's people might join in honoring our blessed Redeemer.
Our foundation is the Word of God and our backbone is prayer. We are committed to lead lives that are pure before the Lord, so the Holy Spirit can use clean vessels to work through.
We strive to be humble servants of the Most High, bringing glory to Jesus, the Head over all things in the Church.
If you play and instrument or enjoy singing, we invite you to prayerfully consider offering you talents to Christ by joining the TheJOURNEY Praise Team, we rehearse every Sunday Afternoon in preparation to lead in worship he next week. For more info please contact the director of music ministry at firstname.lastname@example.com.

'Hey, can I get a drink on the house if my dog talks for you?'
'Dogs can't talk, pal. But if you can prove to me yours does, I'll give you a drink. If not, I get to kick your ass.'
'Okay,' says the guy. He turns to his dog. 'Okay fella. Tell me -- what is on top of a house?'
'Roof!' The man turns and smiles at the bartender.
'THAT ain't talking! Any dog can bark!'
'Okay boy. Tell me -- how does sandpaper feel?'
'What the hell you tryin' to pull mister?'
'Okay, okay," says the man. "One more question please. Okay buddy, tell me -- who is the greatest ball player who ever lived?'
The bartender beats the hell out of the guy and throws onto the sidewalk outside of the bar, then throws the dog out next to him. The dog stands up and looks at the guy.
"Geez. Maybe I shoulda said DiMaggio?"
"I'm gonna go back to that field of carrots," says one.
"I'm gonna go back to those cute little rabbits," says the second.
"I'm going back to the lab," says the third. "I'm dying for a cigarette."

Rough Picture, but Don't Dismiss the Positives
"True leadership must be for the benefit of the followers, not the enrichment of the leaders."
-- Robert Townsend
After faltering badly last Tuesday the market found its footing and moved nicely higher the past three days. The S&P 500 and DJIA are challenging their highs of 2005 and appear to have some upside momentum. The Nasdaq has been lagging but the semiconductor sector has been acting better and that is making the bulls more optimistic that technology stocks may start to outperform.
Despite the generally strong action on the surface there are some problems with recent market leadership that can't be ignored. Leadership has primarily been in defensive stocks such as oils, metals, homebuilders, steels and cyclical issues. Strength in these type of stocks is not necessarily good for the broader market.
Strong oil can push the S&P 500 up but it will eventually take a toll on the rest of the market because rising oil prices are little more than a tax on industrial production. There has been some good strength in semiconductors, which makes for much better leadership and can be a major positive if it continues. The ideal situation for the market would be a rotation out oils and cyclicals and into technology, biotechnology and smaller-caps. That would be a promising sign of broad market momentum.
I've been extremely cautious about the market after the very poor day last Tuesday. Although the market bounced strongly since then I found few buying opportunities. The leading sectors -- oils, homebuilders and metals/steels -- are just too extended to offer favorable entry points. Many of these stocks were up quite strongly on Friday and are in nose bleed territory.
I was surprised that even with strong breadth overall that there were very few stocks moving up big outside of those defensive sectors. Volume has not been there and the quality of leadership is suspect.
However, the markets are not in bad technical shape overall and we can't be too quick to conclude that this move is doomed to fail. Yes, we'd like to see oils and homebuilders cool off and some other groups assert themselves but the action isn't so troubling at this point that we need to head for the bunkers. On the other hand I am holding an extremely large cash position right now mainly as a function of not being able to add much long exposure during the move Thursday and Friday.
The bottom line is that I don't like the present market leadership and the rather light volume, but the broader technical picture of the S&P 500 and DJIA is pretty darn good and the strength in semiconductors is promising, so we can't be too pessimistic. We have a full economic agenda this week and that is going to affect this market.
The bears' best hope now is that oil will continue to dog the market and that interest rate concerns will build. If economic reports start showing some signs of inflationary pressures we are likely to see some selling pressure. However, if that occurs we may also see some rotation into lagging Nasdaq stocks at the expense of defensive groups.
The early action is slightly positive. We have a couple merger deals but oil prices are up, the dollar is weak and overseas markets are up moderately.
Fasten your seatbelts, it should be an interesting week.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'General Firearms Forum' started by Slugo, Jan 24, 2020.
OMG, absolutely beautiful!
Thanks Slugo.
Yeah the Swiss P210's from the 60's and 70's were a work of art.
I kind of like it, and want to check one out when they make an appearance locally.
I don't have an original variation of the 210, never even seen one in the wild locally, so I have no point of reference for comparison.
I'm not going to ever own one of the "real" 210s, so I'll judge this one on its own merits.
I understand some marketing guys are trying to come up with ideas to keep up with Jones or keep their jobs but gezz, ya gotta ask yourself
You said "abomination".... what makes it so? In terms of quality will you speak specifically here? Can we be specific with reference to the parts? I'll give you that hand fitting has gone bye-bye, but that's not necessarily always a bad thing.
Honestly, I've owned and still own 1911s that put any factory gun to shame, including the older Sig P210s. They're nice, but they're not custom, where tireless fitting and even fabrication come into play. I've owned, and still own guns, from Rogers, Christiansen, Yost etc and I didn't walk up on the new Sigs and scoff.
If I wanted one of these, I'd buy a new one. I'd wager the performance would be nearly the same in 99% of shooters hands as a $4000 Wilson Single stack 1911 or even... one of the older P210s.
It will be great for making those 200 yard head shots on the active shooter at the mall.
I would buy one just to see @bac1023 roll his eyes back in his head. LOL
Webley & Scott's "Pistol Self-Loading .455 Mk.I" used the squared barrel hood locking into a recess in the slide in 1912.
There's a LOT of mystique about original P210's, but if they were sitting on shelves at $2000 I doubt many would sell. Right had controls, heel magazine release, sights that are useless in dim light, etc. I'm not knocking them, but they aren't competitive with modern handguns for self defense.
The "new P210" is a different handgun, but it is accurate (possibly more than most originals), reliable, and has modern features.
For collectors the antiques will always win. For users, the new one might be the better choice, even at the same price.
"When it all comes down, the last man standing is going to be standing there in shorts and sneakers with a '98 Mauser, and all the ninja-looking guys belly up at his feet — with all their cool gear."
— Louis Awerbuck
Wouldn't it have made more sense for SIG to have introduced an optics- ready variant of the P210 American? Sure, it would be ugly, but a red dot sight would enhance the P210's biggest strength, which is being an accurate, easy-to-shoot 9mm pistol.
The guys at SIG should visit Camp Perry to see how actual target shooters set up their pistols.
My knowledge and memories of the Sig 210 comes from the 1980s when I was first introduced to it. Those Sig 210s impressed me quite a bit. At the SHOT show in 2010 or 2011 Sig had a current production Sig 210 at their booth that, IIRC, they were re-introducing. I remember playing with that demo gun and thinking Sig better up their game! Was under-whelmed by the demo.
With so many great ccw pistols out there- why would one want something like this for $1200?!
Sigarms lost me years ago...
Yeah I think I read that at one time before, Michael. Obviously, Sig Sauer made it popular.
What's better about much more cheaply made pistol? The controls?
I know you only buy new production stuff, but you have little knowledge of anything else.
Its cool to buy the mass produced stuff, but thinking it's always better is funny.
By the way, the German P210 first used the 1911-style thumb safety, if that's what you're referring to. Give me a Mastershop model for the same price as one of these watered down American things and I'll be pretty happy.
BTW, you DO realize that the Swiss models would blow out at $2000, right? Some of those bring five figures.
There are some new production guns I love. The FK BRNO is an example. I also have a strong feeling I'll love the Alien Pistol when it comes in.
Cause they think they're getting a P210..
bac, My American 210A does not utilize a locking block. The barrel locks and unlocks on the slidestop in the same fashion as my Swiss and German 210s.
Another look.
No it doesn't lock in the same fashion as your Swiss and German models.
Check it out again.
Pull the barrels from both and tell me what you see different...
I'm wondering if someone wanting an Uber-accurate head shot at 50 yards capable concealed carry gun is really that different from someone wanting a 16 shot CCW...
Not likely to use eithers capability, but hey if it makes you feel better...
Anyway I suspect the gun is more primarily targeted at P210 fans who shoot those a lot, thus want a carry version. Kind of like they make Commander and Officer models of the 1911. Makes sense to me.
Yep. Wilson and other high end 1911 companies sell 9mm 1911s like hotcakes. I don't get it, but they do. And those guns are a step up from even the old Swiss P210s. I'd honestly look at one of these first IF that's what I wanted to carry.
If this was a double stack, I'd be all over it.

Napoleon. The true relations of Catholicism to civil and political as well as religious liberty, though for three centuries as patent as the sun at noonday, have been strangely blinked or misrepresented by Protestant writers, for the last quarter of a century. The discovery, that the Reformers were mistaken in their judgment upon the secular influence of Romanism, that the prevalent opinions upon its intolerance, its hostility to light and progress, its worldly selfishness, and the corruption of its clergy, are mere Protestant prejudices, is one of the weakest and most mischievous of the many "flunkeyisms" which seem especially to mark an age when manhood and moral courage are among the rarest of the virtues. Even those who admit that Popery in the sixteenth century was what Luther knew and felt it to be, very often inform us, that the spirit of Romanism is softened in accordance with the spirit of the age"; that it no longer persecutes, no longer corrupts, no longer seeks for temporal power or worldly wealth ; that its mission is of charity and healing; that it favors the advancement and diffusion of knowledge, and is everywhere the patron and the advocate of the suffering and the oppressed; that a morally depraved Pope is now impossible; and that, though the civil administration of his government may be faulty, it has renounced its claims to the political sovereignty of Christendom, and as a spiritual authority it works only by fair argument and moral suasion. Assertions like these, in the face of the facts, that not one of the impudent claims of the Papacy to secular power, and the right of absolute spiritual control, has even been surrendered by the Vatican, not one of its minatory bulls against heretics revoked, not one of its means of corruption discarded ; that, though Catholicism numbers but one seventh of the human family, the property of that Church many times exceeds the wealth of all the other religious communities upon earth ; that new concordats have been negotiated with Catholic princes, reinvesting the Pope with all the powers ever claimed by him in the darkest period of the Middle Ages; that Catholic supremacy is notoriously the mainspring in all the policy of the Austrian Empire; and that, in every Catholic state in Europe, persecution and intolerance are rapidly reviving ; — in the face of such facts, we say, the
assertion that Catholicism is no longer a dangerous influence, betrays an ignorance of the relations between cause and effect, or a perversion of the moral faculties, very discreditable to the intelligence and the candor of those who make it.
Although the history of the Papacy shows many pontiffs more dissolute in private life than Pius IX., — not one more aggressive in his aspirations, more relentless in his vengeances, or more obstinately wedded to all the traditional abuses of the Vatican, - it does not record one pontifical act of more detestable wickedness, not one fraught with greater danger to the most sacred of human rights, than the forcible kidnapping of young MORTARA, a crime that scarcely finds its parallel in all the barbarities of Nicholas in Poland or Franz Joseph in Italy. And yet this enormous wrong has scarcely called forth a breath of reprobation in Protestant Europe or Protestant America. Napoleon, to his honor be it said, and Napoleon alone, warmly but ineffectually remonstrated against this flagrant outrage, and it still remains unredressed, — the foulest stain which a single outrage has placed on the history of the nineteenth century. If the power to repeat such crimes remains with the Bishop of Rome, the responsibility will rest less on Catholic, usurping Napoleon, than on Protestant, legitimate Prussia and England.
Art. VIII. — REVIEW OF CURRENT LITERATURE.
( (( lievler THEOLOGY. MR. PARKER's recent Letter to his Congregation * stands among those striking autobiographies, in which our generation is so fortunate in having its marked phases of religious thought set forth. No exposition of a man's belief is at once so interesting and true, as that contained in an honest record of his life; and even when that record is colored by his own feeling, or prejudice, or wayward experience, it is all the more serviceable witness. The current of personal feeling that runs through the "Phases of Faith," Brownson's " Convert," and Blanco White's Memoirs, makes a distinct part of their value as illustrations of the religious tendencies they represent. As strongly individualized as Luther's " Table-Talk," and a good deal more deliberate and full, each in its way furnishes precisely the material which the historian or critic, one of these days, will be most in search of.
* Theodore Parker's Experience as a Minister, with some Account of his Early Life and Education for the Ministry. Boston: Rufus Leighton, Jr.
Of recent works of this kind, this little volume, or large pamphlet, is the most interesting to us, and the most likely to provoke sharp criticism. It is a very transparent and plainly told story of a pretty obstinate controversy, still fresh, from the pen of the most conspicuous actor therein ; and of course, it both reflects and provokes the slumbering passions of the debate. It is also a revelation of personal feeling and experience, - a private, and indeed confidential record, made to near friends, reckoning on their sympathy, and not shrinking to say what few men would care to say. to a larger circle. It is as if a certain curiosity or fatality had broken the seal of privacy, and let us into the secrets of an intercourse which, primarily, we had no right to share. In form, it is a private matter between the writer and his correspondents. He wishes "it might be read only to them, or printed solely for their affection, not also published for the eye of the world; but that were impossible, .... so what I write private to you becomes public also for mankind, whether I will or not."
This statement, to a certain degree, disarms criticism. And could we imagine this to have been strictly a private communication, brought to light only by accident, or posthumously, it would scarce be amenable to any judgment or comment of ours. We should pause at the words, so appealing to our human sympathy: " Consumption, having long since slain almost all my near kinsfolk, horsed on the North-wind, rode at me also, seeking my life. Swiftly I fled hither, hoping in this little island of the Holy Cross to hide me from his monstrous sight, to pull his arrows from my flesh, and heal my wounded side. .... I know that I am no longer young, and that I stand up to my shoulders in my grave, whose uncertain sides at any moment may cave in and bury me with their resistless weight. .... Yet still the will to live, though reverent and submissive, is exceeding strong, more vehement than ever before, as I have still much to do, — some things to begin upon, and many more lying now half done, that I alone can finish, and I should not like to suffer the little I have done to perish now for lack of a few years' work." With these words before us, breathing the suppressed pain of a strong man bowed, we should read anything that might follow without censure or deprecation, glad simply to see things as they seemed to the writer's heart.
But a public document, which this comes to be in fact, - containing the story of events in which a great many have borne a part, and reflecting honor or dishonor on a great many names among the living, is another matter. This " Letter" is not only an account, it is also an epitome of the writer's ministry,— a recapitulation, in brief, of the long war of pamphlets and discourses, in which no one else has borne a part at all comparable to Mr. Parker in boldness or general ability. With the warmth of the debate, the passion of the hour reappears. So true, indeed, is Mr. Parker to his character, as a man " severely in earnest," that, even in this narrative review, he assumes the agonistic attitude, and runs perpetually into the tone of argument, appeal, or objurgation. The reader is likely to be disappointed, vexed perhaps, to find so little of the calmness he might look for in the forced repose of a sick man's retrospect. At this distance of time, he will say, — five or fifteen years from the battle he relates, — at that distance in space, where the exile may be thought to see everything softened by the intervening leagues of sea and sky, — followed too from his native land by so warm an expression of sympathy, even from many who had been strangers or opposed, — we might have expected to find the view of men and things tempered and assuaged. Some softening in the perspective, some mellow haze hiding the sharpness of light and shadow, we might have looked for in a picture drawn in that far-off retreat, — possibly softer strokes from a hand weakened by sickness. But the remarkable character of the Letter — aside from the glimpse it gives of the real tenderness, devoutness, and affectionateness of a character which the great public has seen mostly on another side — is precisely as a reproduction, or epitome, of the controversy as it was. The narrative is, indeed, in some parts, almost sternly given, and not a hard line suppressed. And for the immediate effect (though not the ultimate value) of this review, we regret a frequent tone that savors of ten years ago.
The best justification, or at least explanation, of this tone, is found in the narrative — which another generation, so far as it looks at all into this matter, must find very striking and curious — of the quality of opposition and reproach met in this eighteen years' iconoclastic crusade. That anything was done to provoke so virulent a hostility as is here spoken of, — that as hard blows were given as taken in the fight, — we find no hint in a narrative certainly meant to be candid and full. When Mr. Parker says, (p. 174,) "I have no delight in controversy ; when assailed, I have never returned the assault," — the statement may be literally correct, but the public will find it hard to understand. A man who, in his thirty-fifth year, "had thoroughly broken with the ecclesiastical authority of Christendom," and who felt then that he had enlisted for "a thirty years' war, if life should hold out so long," can hardly seem, to average people, "not much of a fighter," however sincerely he may say it; and one only wonders at the astonishment he seems to have felt at the hostility he called forth. It is not time yet to analyze all the motives of that hostility. Suflice it to say, that in some points it would have been disarmed, if the sense of personal justice and the decorum of debate had always weighed as much with him as zeal for public justice and the stress of controversy. Even the friendliest judge will ask if all the fault is on one side, when a strong and heroic worker is obliged to "do his work by stealth"; and when an enterprise of simple charity " would have been ruined at once, if his face or name had appeared in connection with it." In the main, in its estimate of the respective rights of the disputants in these discussions, it is likely that posterity will side with Mr. Parker. But — naturally enough, perhaps — we think this narrative does great injustice to
the opposition, forgets many elements of provocation, and makes the sincere feeling, or belief, or good fame of others of quite too small account, in comparison with the fiery force of conviction which it declares.
In reply to these suggestions, we know that Mr. Parker's most ardent admirers would remind us that, just as we cannot get all the minor virtues for four and sixpence a day, we cannot, in wider matters, ask all traits of force and of loveliness in the same finite life; — that the great reformer cannot be expected to be the great pacificator, harmonizer, tolerator, and mediator. This is, we suppose, the simplest key to the tone of the book; the author does not know what is meant by " Toleration," and yet does not know that he does not know it. His firm and unhesitating belief in himself, therefore, almost inevitably expresses itself in a tone, — which is, we believe, to the seniors who had to do with this controversy very provoking, — while to the juniors just now coming on the stage it is simply amusing, - which, it we may borrow a phrase from Sir Walter Scott, may be called the "big bowwow" strain. A charming letter-writer, a companion in travel of Mr. Parker, has just now styled him, very happily, " the Great Dog," " Can Grande," — in memory of Dante's hopes for the achievements of Can Grande della Scala, a prince of his own time. After personifying the treachery of Florence, the rapine of France, and the hungry meanness of Rome, under the figures of panther, lion, and wolf, which had terrified and threatened him, Dante makes Virgil say of Rome and of Can Grande:
"For yonder brute 'gainst whom thou criest, alarmed,
Nay, every trespasser with death prevents,
Her greedy appetite she ne'er contents,
With many a beast already she has lain,
Till comes the GREYHOUND, slaying her with pain [Can Grande].
But wisdom, love, and virtue. ,
Envy's rank spawn, — He shall have dragged her down." * Poor Dante's prophecy did not prove fortunate ; - it has been, indeed, the only passport to immortality of the Great Dog in behalf of whom it was made. As in lesser cases, his bark proved worse than his bite. We hope more for the war against falsehood, force, appetite, and craft of the new Can Grande; but while we express the hope, we have to confess that we seldom listen to his baying of the wolf, without detecting something of a more conscious and less dignified "bow-wow."
We cannot attempt to examine in detail statements of fact so numerous as are here given, and many of them made in the most general and sweeping terms, — made too on the sole authority of a memory, singu
* We quote Mr. Parsons's translation.

More than 40 law enforcement executives attended the first in a series of symposiums presented by the Police Foundation and International Association of Crime Analysts (IACA) designed to help police departments integrate the use of crime analysis to increase effectiveness and reduce crime.
The symposium, presented July 16 in Cambridge, Massachusetts, drew police chiefs and other executives from throughout the Northeastern United States and beyond. The other regional locations and dates for the series will be announced later this year.
The free day-long symposium was one of a series that is supported by the Bureau of Justice Assistance. The series is entitled "Advancing Policing Through Innovation and Science: A Crime Analysis Symposium for Law Enforcement Leaders." It was developed based on the best practices of crime analysis and draws on the expertise of the Police Foundation, the IACA, policing and crime analysis researchers and experts.
Bureau of Justice Assistance Director Denise O'Donnell kicked off the symposium, speaking to the importance of integrating evidence-based practices into policing, and using crime analysis as an important component of that integration.
Presenters at the first session included Dr. Rachel Santos, an Associate Professor at Florida Atlantic University, Dr. Roberto Santos, a Commander with the Port Saint Lucie, Florida Police Department, Dr. Laura Wyckoff, a Bureau of Justice Assistance Crime Analysis Fellow and a Police Foundation Science Advisor, and Dawn Clausius, IACA Secretary and a Police Intelligence Analyst with the Olathe, Kansas Police Department.
The presenters explored how agencies of all sizes can integrate crime analysis into approaches such as problem-oriented policing, hot-spots policing, community policing, predictive policing and intelligence-led policing. They discussed "what works," and made recommendations based on nationally recognized best practices.
"There is a significant amount of research that indicates what works in reducing crime and that crime analysis plays an important role," said Commander Roberto Santos. "However, if the evidence-based findings cannot be translated into police practice effectively, there is no true benefit of the research and crime analysis to our communities. When evidence-based practices and crime analysis are integrated to everyday police practice, it ultimately improves police service, and the end result is trust, legitimacy, and long-lasting partnerships between the community and the police."
Police executives who attended said they appreciated learning how to use crime analysis on an agency-wide basis.
"Mayors, city legislators, budget directors and community members are expecting police executives to provide analytical support for their deployment, tactics and strategy," said Deputy Commissioner Nola Joyce of the Philadelphia Police Department."The Police Foundation's Symposium on Crime Analysis provides Chiefs with the information needed to build and enhance their departments' analytical capacity. "
"I found tremendous value in the symposium," said Chief John Fisher of the Carlisle (MA) Police Department. "Our field, like many professions, is changing at a frantic pace. The Police Foundation continues to identify subject matter experts in our field and facilitate access to police executives."

Four artists set to represent Northern Ireland on an Indian adventure
Tuesday 28th November 2017 at 10am 0 Comments Film & TV , Northern Ireland Music , Visual Arts
A filmmaker, musician, painter and jewellery maker have been chosen to represent Northern Ireland on an Indian adventure of discovery.
The four artists have been selected by the Arts Council of Northern Ireland and the British Council to undertake residencies at two prestigious Indian institutions. The residencies will give the artists dedicated space and time to develop their artistic practice and are the result of new links forged with key cultural institutions in India by the Arts Council and British Council as a platform for creating, sharing and promoting the creative arts.
Derry~Londonderry based film maker Myrid Carten will be the first of the four to go, travelling this week to Sanskritti Delhli, a cultural centre, designed as a serene environment to encourage innovative and interactive work. The five-acre campus houses three museums, a multi-purpose hall, an amphitheatre, artists' studios, dormitories and workshop spaces.
In the New Year, musician Joby Fox, craft and jewellery maker Robyn Galway, and visual artist Angela Hackett, will all travel to the beautiful, historical town of Ramgarh Shekhawati to complete their residencies.
Sonya Whitefield, Arts Development Officer, Arts Council of Northern Ireland, commented:
"This is a fantastic opportunity for these artists to immerse themselves in another artistic community and draw inspiration from another culture – the art, the people, the places they will visit. These residencies are about providing new learning experiences for our artists, as well as giving them a platform to showcase the immense talent and creativity Northern Ireland has to offer. We wish them all every success."
Looking forward to her time in India, Myrid Carten commented:
"I am grateful for the Arts Council's continual support, who along with The British Council have awarded me this International residency to India.
"My films screening in the Delhi International Film Festival, alongside research into links between India and Ireland's history and film culture, means I can make a new body of work about the postcolonial female body as a site of contesting border ideologies. I am honoured to be representing Northern Ireland and excited to share ideas and work with Indian artists. "
Colette Norwood, Arts Manager, British Council Northern Ireland commenting on the opportunity said:
"British Council is delighted to continue to offer a series of artist residencies in India, in partnership with the Arts Council. The festivals and Indian cultural organisations we are working with provide vital opportunities to celebrate our artists internationally."

WFFC Advent Calendar: 10 – David Bastian
David Bastian was a no-nonsense defender who made 91 appearances for the club, both for Leyton Pennant and Waltham Forest.
Bastian's debut did not quite go to plan, and ended in a 4-0 defeat to Canvey Island in the Essex Senior Cup on the 30th of October 2001.
However, that season turned out to be one of the club's better seasons, with Colin Richards' side finishing sixth in the second division of the Ryman League.
Bastian left the club at the end of the 2001-2 season, where he spent a season and three quarters at Wivenhoe Town, before returning to Forest at the tail end of the 2003-4 season, this time playing under Hakan Heyrettin.
In the 2004-5 season he made 27 appearances, but ultimately the season was a bit of a disappointment, with Forest finishing 16th in the Southern League Eastern Division.
Bastian remained with the club for the 2005-6 season, and his experience was vital in guiding a young team to an excellent finish, only narrowly missing out on the play-offs. He also played a key part in the club securing the Essex Senior Cup that year.
David will not be remembered for his goalscoring abilities. In 91 starts for the club, he only managed to find the back of the net once. However, the one goal he did score was such a beauty that it probably made up for his lack of goals during the time with the club.
Playing against eventual champions Yeading, Bastian unleashed a sumptuous volley from the edge of the area, helping his side to a 3-1 victory in April 2004.
Bastian eventually left the club at the end of the 2005-6 season, where he joined up with Simon Tickner at Enfield Town, making 106 appearances and earning a place in their 25 top appearance makers.
Since departing Town, Bastian has been playing for Ware, and was an unused substitute as we played them this Saturday (8th of December 2012).

Caverns elevators out of service again
CARLSBAD — Just three months after returning to use, the elevators at Carlsbad Caverns National Park are out of service once again.
Park Public Affairs Specialist Valerie Gohlke said one of the two secondary elevators stalled in the shaft early Thursday morning during a routine safety test run.
No passengers were aboard.
Since the elevators are used to access each other should an emergency rescue become necessary, the seond elevator cannot be used either.
"Hopefully, this will be a quick fix," Gohlke said. "Our mechanics looked at them and it's a problem beyond their expertise."
The Caverns had been without elevator service since November when one of the passenger elevators stopped working, before coming back online in May when the secondary elevators were repaired.
The passenger elevators remain out of service.
The secondary elevators ran without incident through most of the summer, the busiest time of year for the park.
Gohlke said elevator technicians will be called in to assess the situation.
"Chuck Burton, our facilities manager, is working with contracting right now to get the folks here absolutely as quickly as possible," Gohlke said.
In the meantime, visitors must hike in and out of the cavern's natural entrance to access the cave. The visitor center is open from 8 a.m.-7 p.m. through Labor Day.

alan moore, books, coffee, gratitude, guy fawkes, ideas, imagination, kitties, libraries, list, obsession, oxford, reading, soundtracks, stories, support, v for vendetta, writer for 365, writer's life, writers
After reading yesterday's post, a dear friend of mine suggested I do a gratitude list. She said that to make it "writerly" I could use alliteration. This from the same friend who, in our younger days, tried to coerce me into drinking strange concoctions of wine and vodka so she could abstain and observe the effects.
Given my friend's twisted sense of humor, and that I had just watched the speech from "V for Vendetta" as part of my brother's and my personal celebration of Guy Fawkes' Day (refer to the aside at the end) I decided to pass on the alliteration, but I thought the list a good suggestion
Today being Friday, work and a night out have kept me away from all writerly tasks, except a brief discussion over dinner of a poet rediscovering his passion and success at the age of 71. It would be easy for me to fall into disquietude. As such, a "writerly" gratitude list is just the thing…a list of things for which I'm grateful as a writer, when writing or not. So I don't go on ad nauseam, let's make it 23 items, for the number of days remaining in this month of gratitude.

An Aside:
Why I will not brave alliteration tonight… one of the speeches from "V for Vendetta," video clip beneath.
"Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is it vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished, as the once vital voice of the verisimilitude now venerates what they once vilified. However, this valorous visitation of a bygone vexation stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose vis-à-vis an introduction, and so it is my very good honour to meet you and you may call me V."

Capturing the Friedmans
A Multi Award-Winning Documentary
Directed by Andrew Jarecki
2003 – 1 hr 47mins
Truth is often more harrowing than fiction, but it is a desperately elusive entity. In this disturbing but mesmerizing documentary, Andrew Jarecki enjoyed remarkable access to his subjects but even Jarecki, who persuaded the family of accused child molesters Arnold and Jesse Friedman to cooperate with him, cannot decide whether the two are guilty, and his film raises as many questions as answers.
Capturing the Friedmans deals with the middle-class Long Island family torn apart in 1987 by child-molestation charges filed after a police raid uncovered kiddie porn apparently belonging to dad Arnold, a respected high school science teacher. He and his 18-year-old son, Jesse, were subsequently accused of molesting dozens of young boys, and their travails are painstakingly documented in this videotaped compilation, which even includes family footage recorded by another Friedman son, David. We see strategy sessions between Arnold and his attorneys, conflicting testimony from alleged victims, posturing by police investigators and legal teams. The film inquires not just into the life of a family but into a community, a legal system, and an era.
"In this somber and thoughtful documentary, Mr. Jarecki has the good grace to probe for answers while not allowing his camera to become intrusive; it's a respectful glance inside the Friedman lives, even as they're casting around for blame. Mr. Jarecki's restraint and taste materialize not only in his handling of such moments, but also in the structuring of the material; the editor, Richard Hankin, also deserves praise." – New York Times
"A superb documentary". – San Francisco Chronicle
"Capturing the Friedmans is a documentary about fiction and fantasy, about truth, justice and the American way. And about shame and betrayal, victimisation, projection, testimony and evidence… In refusing to take any one position, this astonishing film becomes about the nature of judgment itself." – The Guardian
"To begin your career with a masterpiece is so remarkable a feat that one can only hope Jarecki finds another subject as rich as this family, which was obsessed with itself but needed a filmmaker to begin to see itself at all." – The New Yorker
"Probing into the elusive nature of truth, through the prism of one Jewish family, this is one of the most perplexing and disturbing documentaries in American film history." – EmanuelLevy.com
"Jarecki's film brilliantly illustrates the fallibility of memory, the slippery nature of 'facts' and even people's invention of events that may never have taken place." – Empire
"A jarring, mesmerizing documentary…Jarecki has created a tour de force of narrative ambiguity, and in doing so has made one of the most honest reality shows ever." – Washington Post
"Utterly compelling account of a true-life criminal investigation where "truth" can never be pinned down." – The Hollywood Reporter
"By the end of Capturing the Friedmans, we have more information, from both inside and outside the family, than we dreamed would be possible. We have many people telling us exactly what happened. And we have no idea of the truth. None." – Chicago Sun-Times

Satan, the External Devil
by Anthony Buzzard
"Each one is tempted," James, the Lord's brother, says, "when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust. Then when lust has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and when sin is accomplished, it brings forth death" (James 1:14-15).
Here is a classic statement about the working of sin in human nature. Jesus was no less realistic in his view of the evil in man when he said: "For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed the evil thoughts, fornications, thefts, murders, adulteries, deeds of coveting and wickedness, as well as deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride and foolishness" (Mark 7:21-22).
In view of these texts, some have concluded that the term "Satan" in the Bible is simply a symbol for the evil inherent in human beings. Satan, they maintain, is not a personality external to mankind but rather a synonym for the human tendency to sin which resides in all people.
The argument against the existence of Satan as a personal being often proceeds like this: Angels are immortal (Luke 20:36). If Satan is an angel, he also must be immortal. If that is so, there will be an evil, immortal angel in the universe forever. Since such would be unthinkable, it is reasoned that Satan cannot be an angelic being. He must be merely a symbol of the evil inherent within mankind.
There are some questionable assumptions in this argument. Every statement about angels in the Bible does not necessarily refer to both good and bad angels at the same time. Paul recognized that there are "elect angels" (1 Tim. 5:21), while Peter and Jude spoke of "angels who sinned" (2 Pet. 2:4; Jude 6). What is inferred about the immortality of angels in Luke 20:36 cannot necessarily be applied to all categories of angels, especially to "angels who sinned," without taking into consideration the rest of Scripture.
Sometimes students of the Bible will demand an explanation for the origin of Satan before they are prepared to believe he exists. No detail is given about the creation of angels, but Bible believers do not question their existence. Angels are simply there, for all to see, in the biblical text.
The same is true of Satan. He is presented in both Testaments as a being, a single personality, external to mankind. To see this clearly, one must approach the subject with a proper method: one must begin at the beginning.
The Bible, when taken as a whole, contradicts the idea that the term "Satan" is a synonym for internal human nature. In Genesis, the original serpent, "who is the devil and Satan" (Rev. 20:2), is an external opponent of Adam and Eve. Satan is certainly not a symbol of Eve's sinful nature. Before she was deceived by Satan, Eve, in her innocence, had no sinful nature.
Moreover, in Genesis 3:14-15, Satan, as the serpent, is cursed as a being distinct and separate from Adam and Eve. Notice especially the last part of verse 15: "He [the seed of the woman] shall bruise you on the head, and you shall bruise him on the heel." This portion of the curse is widely recognized as a prophecy, not about literal snakes or internal human nature, but about Satan's ultimate defeat by Christ, the seed of the woman. Such a curse clearly demonstrates that Satan is a morally responsible personality who must answer for his actions. As a being distinct from Eve, Satan is guilty of a terrible sin against God. (See also John 8:44 in this regard.)
Other examples from the Old Testament also reveal that Satan is an external opponent. In Job 1 and 2, he appears as Job's adversary, having the power to devastate Job's life and inflict disease upon him. This was obviously not Job's human nature at work; it would be impossible to find that in the account. Also, in Zechariah 3, Satan stands at the right hand of Joshua the high priest to accuse him. Here again, Satan is not Joshua's human nature but a real, external enemy. The same is true in 1 Chronicles 21:1 when Satan stood up against Israel and provoked David to number Israel.
Certainly, there are other "satans" in the Old Testament. These are human or angelic adversaries who stand in opposition to various individuals. For example, in Numbers 22:22, "God was angry [with Balaam], and the angel of the Lord took his stand in the way as an adversary [satan] against him." The adversary in this account is clearly not Balaam's human nature.
In 2 Samuel 19:22, David said, "What have I to do with you, O sons of Zeruiah, that you should this day be an adversary [satan] to me?" 1 Kings 11:23-25 also recounts that God stirred up an adversary [a satan] against Israel. This was a human enemy, Rezon the son of Eliada.
The point to be established from such Old Testament references is that in all occurrences of the word "satan" (either a satan or the Satan), an external enemy is in view. In no case does "satan" mean the evil within the human heart.
The same is true of the use of the word "satan" and its Greek equivalent diabolos, devil, in the New Testament. The first use of these terms in the New Testament is found in Matthew 4 in connection with the temptation of Jesus. (See the parallel accounts in Mark 1:12-13 and Luke 4:1-13.) Matthew introduces the Devil without explanation (verse 1), perhaps indicating that his readers already knew, based upon Satan's Old Testament appearances, that the Devil is an external tempter. However, lest there be any doubt, Matthew reports that the Devil "came" to Jesus (verse 3, literally "came towards" or "approached"), and later the Devil "left" Jesus (verse 11). Matthew also reports that angels "came and began to minister to him." No one has difficulty in understanding that the angels were external to Jesus. They came to him (verse 11), but so did Satan in verse 3.
Who then was this tempter who spoke to Jesus in the wilderness? If Satan is merely man's own sinful nature, as some maintain, then Jesus must have produced twisted quotations of Scripture in his own mind. However, nothing in the account suggests Jesus was talking to himself. Also, Jesus himself was sinless, for only as the Sinless One could he atone for the sins of others. 2 Corinthians 5:21 declares: "[God] made [Jesus] who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, that we might become the righteousness of God in him."
If Jesus' temptation did not come from within himself, then it must have come from some external source. The Gospels identify that source as Satan, the devil.
From Genesis to Revelation, Satan is alive and active as the external adversary and accuser of God and His people. Even though he is destined for destruction in the lake of fire (Rev. 20:10), Satan presently "prowls about like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour" (1 Pet. 5:8). To suggest, therefore, that Satan does not really exist as a personality is a dangerous proposition indeed, one that may lead to deception. Rather than downplaying Satan's personality and role, Ephesians 6:11-12 warns Christians to recognize the enemy and arm themselves against him. May we all heed this advice:
"Put on the full armor of God, that you may be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood [i.e., human beings], but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places."

The Everly Brothers Park is the newest addition to the City of Knoxville's Parks and a great addition to the Bearden neighborhood. This beautiful passive park is the only commemorative park in the United States to honor rock-and-roll duo Don and Phil Everly.
Don and Phil moved with their family to Knoxville in 1953 and attended West High School. Performing as a duo, the brothers appeared on the Cas Walker Farm and Home Hour radio show on WROL-AM. In 1955, Chet Atkins, manager of RCA Victor's studio in Nashville offered to help them with their recording career. The Everly Brothers, along with musical pioneers Buddy Holly, Elvis, Little Richard, and Chuck Berry ushered in the early years of rock and roll.
The pocket park connects to the Bearden Village Greenway at the corner of Kingston Pike and Forest Park Boulevard. There are future plans for a small stage, benches, walkways, information plaques about the Everly Brothers and a signature art piece.

Are you a couple who thrives on adventure and is looking to get married in a destination wedding location that encompasses magic, mystery, light, energy and nature based explorations you've never ever encountered before? Please allow me the pleasure of introducing you to the captivating and unforgettable:
Are you racking your brain right now trying to figure out where are the Faroe Islands? They are owned by Denmark (just as Greenland is) and are a hypnotizing set of islands in-between Iceland, Norway, and the U.K. Inside these magical 18 islands you will lose yourself and find yourself over and over again. …and the almost unbelievable part is when you leave the islands, you'll be overcome with an unyielding amount of inspiration, focus, and view of nature that you didn't know was possible. You'll almost believe Faroe Islands = Narnia!
You giggle, but I'm serious! What other place has more grass covered houses than anywhere in the world, more sheep than people, horses playing in magical looking areas (see below), jagged cliff edges that will get your heart pumping, hikes that are self-finding, a serenity that you thought only exists in your mind, and a place that still offers a deep and rich culture that mixes the best of the best Nordic worlds of Denmark and Iceland?! Nowhere, Natta, No place but the magnificent Faroe Islands, I tell you! …and you all know I've traveled the world seeking the world's best Adventure Wedding spots!
Within the mainland island just a 5 minute drive from the sparkling seaside city of Torshavn, sits on a hillside overlooking the city, the perfect Faroe Islands wedding location: Hotel Føroyar. Back in September I was lucky enough to call this amazing hotel my home base for several nights as I location scouted both on land and on sea for epic Faroe Island wedding locations! From the moment I arrived, I smiled. It was very late and pitch dark but I was able to see the lights shinning from the city below and when I opened my hotel room window I found that the hotel was built right into the hill it was perched upon! The next morning, I may or may not have climbed out my window and did somersaults down it 😉
So, are you wondering why I personally loved Hotel Føroyar? The connection I felt to nature was outrageously awesome. Walking towards the entrance to the hotel, you see the entire roof of the hotel is grass covered and then you follow your way to the reception desk and the colors, tones, and textures all feel earthy but with an underling accent of luxury. I was given my keys and told to walk down the hallway where there are rocks from the land incorporated right into the walls you pass to your room. It was brilliant, really freaking brilliant!
…and then you ask me the real question: Why would I choose Hotel Føroyar to hold my Faroe Island destination wedding? I would playfully ask the question back to you as, "Why the heck wouldn't you? It's the best the Faroe Islands has to offer, hands down." #TrueStory
There are 106 panoramic view rooms overlooking the amazing city below. The room list follows below:
All of the rooms are well equipped and even more so, I think by American standards and offers the following in-room amenities:
Another reason why you should consider Hotel Føroyar is because they have lavish conference rooms that can perfectly accommodate your Faroe Island wedding reception from a whimsical Faroese elopement to a 300+ guest list. There are 3 standout locations within Hotel Føroyar that I was totally struck by… First, the VIP top floor houses a hall that can capably host your 340 guest Faroe Islands wedding reception. Second, there is a wine cellar that would be perfect for your intimate elopement for two or exclusive party of 10 that has a deep romantic vibe embedded in it. Third, there is the CUTEST little grass covered trailer that can fit your fabulous party of 2-8 people in it and it can be towed to some of the really amazing spots we have scouted throughout the island! Talk about service and options, right? So I'm here right now, picturing you, your soon-to-be, and your closest friends/family indulging in exquisite cuisine… Seaside, Cliff-side, in View of an Amazing Natural Wonder, or set within one of their super cute magical towns. Are you in?!
The final reason why Hotel Føroyar is rounding out my Top 5 Adventure Wedding Hotel List for 2015 is the caliber of the food and the euphoria it left me in. Never have I ever had such an intense, beautiful, and creative tasting experience than at Hotel Føroyar's world renowned (and awarded) restaurant: KOKS. For 3 hours and 21 courses, I put things in my mouth I never thought I would and each dish made me even more excited in taste and presentation. For my lovely high-end foodies out there that are all about the adventurous experience during the day and the evening being about food and conversation… THIS IS THE ULTIMATE DESTINATION WEDDING EXPERIENCE. The dishes were delicate, intriguing, and came with amazing drink pairings that amplified the experience (as if that was possible). Each course was introduced by a restaurant staff member who was well-versed on the local/cultural ingredients and also a skilled sommelier. The menu I had follows below (don't drool too much!):
Drink pairings were out of this world and follow below:
To say that having your destination wedding in the Faroe Islands would be magical, would be an understatement. Simply put, it would be an off the charts fairy-tale! Mark my words folks, the Faroe Islands is just like Iceland was before the HUGE tourism boom… Pure, untouched, majestic, and no matter where you go you can escape people even in the frequented areas. We would love to help you plan an incredible unforgettable adventure wedding in the Faroe Islands using Hotel Føroyar as your home base! Please contact us for more information!

When a bustling city, a wedding, and adventure collide, where do you end up? In our adventure wedding world that answer is simple:
Nordic Hotel Forum in Tallin, Estonia.
I'm so excited today, to introduce you to not only a gorgeous country in the Baltic States that is filled with heart-warming history, art, stunning villas, parks, delicious food, and endless activities for my thrill seekers, but a hotel that is near it all. The Nordic Hotel Forum offers you luxury within walking distance of the Old Town Tallin and is minutes away from everything else!
I arrived at the hotel totally tired from driving in several hours from Latvia and as soon as I walked in my mood changed as the staff greeted me. The super professional team took my bags from my hands, checked me in quickly and wished me a wonderful day. I suddenly found my second wind! Luckily too because I was minutes away from eating out of my mini bar or ordering room service when I was reminded about their FABULOUS 5 star restaurant on site: Restaurant Monaco!
The meal I had in this fabulous hotel and restaurant, was one of the most delicious, surprising, and inspiring I have ever had. Not kidding folks… and I eat out a lot! The chef is genius and the space is gorgeous! Which proves to be the best combination for having a destination wedding in Estonia, am I right? You want your guests to walk away from their meal saying, "Oh my, that was the BEST meal I have ever had!"
I began with the astonishing "signature drink" of the hotel and it was calm, cool, and refreshing! I delighted in a delicious 4 course meal that evening that brought in some traditional elements like duck/deer but brought it up 100 notches by taste and presentation (as you'll see from my photos below)! …and I might have had the most amazing thing I have ever put in my mouth for dessert. Nothing like I have ever had before, it blew my mind as it exploded (literally and figuratively) in my mouth!
So why is this marvelous location ideal for your Nordic/Baltic Adventure Wedding? Countless reasons really but a few of my favorite highlights follow below:
It is no understatement to say that the happiest hotel in Tallin, Estonia is the Nordic Hotel Forum. The vibe throughout the hotel and the attention to detail the staff has is the best I've seen in a city hotel. The best thing is too is that the concierge on staff can direct you to anything your heart desires whether it be museums, art, historical villas, the beautiful national parks in the area, or lead you to more limit pushing escapades for your daily activities. For my lovely adventure seekers, there are many many things within the area that will get your heart thumping! Activities like the Tallin Balloon, Tallinn TV Tower, the Sailing vessel "Kajsamoor," and the Tallinn Creative Hub!
You better come back next week as we head to our next location on our Top 5 Adventure Wedding Hotel List for 2015… It's in one of the most majestic and mysterious places on the planet for you nature lovers out there! If you missed out previous posts on this year's list, please go back Vihula,Ammende, and Baltic Beach to enlighten yourself on them.
