Ellen White and the Book of Revelation

For Seventh-day Adventists the study of the book of Revelation rarely occurs without reference to the writings of Ellen G. White, a highly-respected founder of the Adventist Church and a major female author of the 19th Century. While most of her comments on Revelation seem based more on the scholarship of the time rather than her own personal study or direct revelation from God, the spiritual power of her writings continues to impact people today as much as it ever did. In a short series of blogs, I would like to address her writings on Revelation (which are fewer than most people who know of her realize). The content of these blogs is based largely on my entry “Book of Revelation” in the new Ellen G. White Encyclopedia. References to her books and manuscripts are in the standard abbreviated format as suggested by the Ellen G. White Estate (
Ellen White’s view of the book of Revelation is most clearly discerned in the two major places where she directly addresses her understanding of the context and purpose of the book. The first and most comprehensive treatment was published in the Review and Herald, Feb. 18, 1890 and republished in Testimonies to Ministers, 112-119. The second treatment consists of two chapters in Acts of the Apostles (568-592).

Ellen White’s approach to Revelation was informed by a basic conviction. She believed that an end-time explosion in the understanding of Daniel and Revelation was the key factor behind the rise of the Advent movement. She felt, in other words, that in her time God had lifted a veil off from these books, enabling them to be fully understood (TM 113:3). The book of Revelation, therefore, was addressed to those living in the last days and the time of fulfillment was near (TM 113:3; 115:2; 116:2; 6T 61-62).

Although the Adventist pioneers had invested much in the study of Revelation, Ellen White was convinced that the book had not yet been fully understood (TM 113:2). Those wishing a deeper understanding would need to approach the book “humbly and meekly” (TM 114:4). The deeper understanding of Revelation that they gained would be a great boon to character development (TM 114:3). There would be a “great revival” (TM 113:2) marked by “an entirely different religious experience” (TM 114:3). So the primary goal of Revelation, in her thinking, was not knowledge, but character.

In terms of method, this deeper study would need to take two, somewhat contrasting forms. On the one hand, Ellen White advocated studying Revelation in the context of Daniel, as a follow-up to the visions given there (TM 114:6; EW 231:2). The two books were to be treated as close companions (TM 115:3,4; AA 585:1). On the other hand, she urged people to study Revelation in the context of all the other prophecies in the Bible (TM 112:1). She even went so far as to suggest that in the book of Revelation “all the books of the Bible meet and end” (AA 585:1). So a whole-Bible approach with special attention to Daniel was the basic method she thought should be applied to Revelation. But while Daniel and Revelation are complimentary, the two books are not the same. Daniel contains much that was sealed up (Dan 12:4), but Revelation was not sealed, its mysteries have always been “open to the study of all” (AA 584:1; RH August 31, 1897).

The Concept of Antichrist– Spiritual Lessons

1) According to John 17:3, eternal life is to KNOW Jesus Christ, to make him the very first priority in one’s life. But the history of interpretation offers us an interesting paradox. Through the centuries, people have often been much more interested in knowing the Antichrist than in knowing the true Christ. Few other subjects have attracted as much attention and imagination from religious thinkers. So we need to keep this subject in balance if we wish to maintain spiritual health. The subject of Antichrist must be important or it wouldn’t be featured so centrally as it is in Revelation. On the other hand, it is not the one topic of supreme importance. That topic is Jesus Christ Himself. Antichrist is important because he seeks to take the place of Christ, to disguise him from the many who need eternal life. If we know him we can better avoid mis-readings of the gospel. Thus alongside the message of Christ, there is a valid place for study of the Antichrist, which we are attempting to do here. But such study needs to be kept in a subordinate place in comparison with the gospel of Jesus Christ.

2) We have noticed that the Antichrist figure has worldwide impact and influence, especially at the end (Rev 13:7-8, 14,16). The final spiritual fraud will be global in extent. That means that no one will be excluded from the final test of true versus false worship. There will be no easy escape from the deceptions of the end. So it is important to be prepared; through study, prayer and self-distrust. But the sea beast will not stop with deception. When this does not achieve the desired results, he causes all who refuse to worship the image to be killed (Rev 13:15). He offers the attractive appeal: “Come with me, if you want to live.” Those who believe that the persecutions of the Middle Ages are forever gone, the future holds a big surprise. Those who live through those days will be the ones who do not love their lives even unto death (Rev 12:11).

3) When Antichrist seeks to deceive he does not put something bad in place of something good. That would no more be a good deception than attempting to buy good with play money. Instead, Antichrist seeks to replace the very best with something that is good in its proper place. A candle may give light in its proper place, but when lit on a sunny day it only creates a shadow.
    For instance, obedience (personal righteousness) is a very good thing in its place. Obedience as a response to what God has done for us is a beautiful thing. Believers should live righteous, sober and godly lives by the Spirit (Titus 2:12; 1 John 3:7). But when our personal obedience is put in the place where God’s mighty saving actions should be, that is the theology of Antichrist. The basic error of the medieval church was to make obedience the root rather than the fruit of our salvation. All other errors, such as indulgences, veneration of the saints, and the change of the Sabbath were possible once the gospel itself was forgotten. Antichrist uses the good to undo the best.
    In current evangelical thought and practice there are similar core distortions at times. What members of some churches want to know these days is not, “How can I please God?” but “How can God please me?” “How can church membership make my life radiantly happy, filled with success and contentment?” How quickly the words of Jesus are forgotten: “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.” And “whoever would save his life will lose it” (Mark 8:34-35, ESV). So as it was in John’s day, there are still many antichrists among us, and some of them don’t even realize it. And perhaps the antichrist that we should most fear is self.

A Matter of Trust

"No one in trouble should be worried about whether they deserve help. They need help, and that's the point."

For Gage Watson, a member of the PEAK Blackbear Ski Patrol, find the lost was just another day at work. Being a former national free-riding snow boarder, this was all that remained of his time as a champion. But that didn't mean that in the world of social media and YouTube, that younger adults didn't dream of following in his proverbial footsteps. With enough research, the things that Gage achieved in his former lime light, he now had to find those thrill seekers before they did something foolish and got hurt or even worse, killed. That was the past Gage was still trying to recover from. The day when Dylan was killed trying to follow in Gage's line along Outlaw Mountain. Even though he tried to dissuade this kid from trying the same thing he had success at, this time, an unfortunate avalanche claimed Dylan's life, but also the life Gage had known. Lawsuits lead to a settlement that cost him sponsorships, awards and his future as a professional snow boarder. Now he spent his hours saving those who got caught up in that fame to prevent another death from occurring if he could help it. He just never thought that Ella Blair would waltz back into his life three years later.

Ella was always trying to convince her younger brother Oliver that his need for thrills might just get himself killed. When she followed him to Montana, the last person she expected to run into was Gage Watson again. He had revoked Oliver's season pass along with his buddy Bradley who thought dressing up as an inflatable T-Rex and videotaping it was the thing to begin their own road to fame and garner some viral videos. Ella knew that Oliver wanted to try the same thing as Dylan had done but this time with success. So when she awoke the following morning and discovering that Oliver and Bradley were missing, she knew exactly where he was headed and who she needed to ask for help. The only one brave enough to find her brother especially when a blizzard was just hours away from them and they discover that a helicopter had already been charted to drop the two off at the top of the summit.

Gage knew that there was no one else to go after them but himself. He was the only one who possessed the skills needed to find two amateurs lost in Glacier National Park with a blizzard only hours away. When Ella insisted that she be allowed to accompany Gage on this mission, she knew she had to convince him to let her come. She could lose the only family she had left and the one man she loved but had never managed to tell him. She was the one responsible for taking him to court as a junior attorney working for a large firm that Dylan's family had hired. She knew that some of the evidence that was uncovered would exonerate Gage from all the charges and even if it meant losing her law license she knew she would need to tell him the truth, if he will let her come with him.

I received A Matter of Trust by Susan May Warren compliments of Baker Publishing Group and Net Galley. In accordance with the new FTC Guidelines for blogging and endorsements, you should assume that every book reviewed here at Reviews From The Heart was provided to the reviewer by the publisher, media group or the author for free and were received, unless specified otherwise. Since this is the third novel in the Montana Rescue Series, there were some back stories that I missed because I picked this one up without reading the prior novels, Wild Montana Skies and Rescue Me, but I hope to pick those up and enjoy reading it from beginning to end. As a random group of people that make up the PEAK rescue team, each of them has their own novel dedicated to their story as they weave into each consecutive one in the series. In this one, Gage and Ella get a chance to discover the true meaning of trust and also what forgiveness means if they are to have any hope of a future.

What happens when those choices go south? So often we blame ourselves or others - and maybe rightly so. But we also seem to forget that God doesn't stop loving us because we make a mistake or even a bad choice. Some people, like Ella, live their lives trying to do everything right, fearing that if they mess up, God won't like them, won't rescue them. And others like Gage, refuse to believe that God could be on their side because of their biggest failures. Lies. We can't live a life free of mistakes - they're one of our biggest tools for learning. And God lets us walk into mistakes! He warns us, yes, and suggests we stay in his line, but he not only lets us choose our line, but he stays with us if we take our own course. And helps us pick up the debris when we wipe out. Not because we're so awesome. But because He is awesome. And He loves us. Period. I easily give this a 5 out of 5 stars simply because I couldn't put it down til it was finished. Like a great piece of chocolate cake smothered in creamy frosting. It is that great and there is a fourth novel coming soon!

When you see CLOTHES on the windshield of your AUTO – Do not touch it for any reason

There is no doubt about the ingenuity of criminals and that is why every new strategy they use to harm others, it is good to let them know until one day they end up running out of resources (something that may not happen while there are people without jobs or benefit).

The novelty now is to leave ¨clothes¨ on the windshield wiper.

A woman left her work late and was heading to the parking lot but when she got to her car she noticed that there was something placed on it that did not belong to her.

A shirt that covered much of the front panoramic glass was entangled in the windshield wiper. Without wasting time he got into his car and did not take off his shirt because he knew that things were not going well and had to leave the place as soon as possible.

While driving, she realized that they were following her but she did not stop until she reached a place where there were many people to feel safe. He activated the windshield wiper so that the shirt would come off but it was impossible because it was secure.

She decided to call the police when she arrived home because she feared that those who followed her would have arrived at her home. The agents informed him that it was a new method of robbery, because when people looked at some garment tied to his car, he took the time to untie it, thus giving the criminals the opportunity to intercept and assault them. Several cases have been presented in the following countries: United States, Mexico, Argentina and Spain.

The girl was a couple of days under surveillance but decided to make public his story so that no one falls into the trap of criminals. It is important to know how to act in different situations and remember that every second counts.

Our recommendation is that if you find something strange in your car, do not take the time to find out anything! Immediately enter it and drive to a safe place. Call the police immediately and try to stay calm when you drive. Beware!

SHARE this story so that all people are alert and take their precautions.

An 83-year-old woman came to the emergency service complaining of abdominal pain in the right iliac fossa (RIF) of 48-h progression. Abdominal x-ray identified a rounded, radiolucent structure in the RIF (fig. 1). A computed tomography (CT) scan showed that the structure communicated with the sigmoid colon, corresponding to a 9-cm diverticulum with signs of inflammation (fig. 2). Treatment consisted of initial antibiotic therapy, followed by sigmoidectomy with exeresis of the diverticulum. A giant diverticulum is that which is larger than 4cm. It is a rare manifestation of diverticular disease, whose cause is unclear. A unidirectional valve is thought to be created between the colon and the diverticulum in which air is trapped, resulting in the gradual distension of the diverticulum. Clinical presentation ranges from an asymptomatic abdominal mass to acute abdomen, and pain is the most frequent symptom. A giant diverticulum can present with complications of perforation, inflammation, bleeding, and neoplastic degeneration. CT is the most accurate study for demonstrating the communication of the diverticulum with the colon and the possible complications.

Tuned City - Between sound and space speculation (1-5 Jul, Berlin)

"Tuned City - Between sound and space speculation" is an exhibition and conference project planned for July 01.-05. 2008 in Berlin which proposes a new evaluation of architectural spaces from the perspective of the acoustic.

The project draws the traditions of critical discussion about urban space within the architecture and urban planning discourse-- as well as its strategies and working methods--into the context of sound art. This expanded discussion re-enforces the potential of the spatial and communicative properties of sound as a tool and means of urban practice.

At the foundations of this event are artists' works and theoretical approaches which examine in a critical and sensitive way the given urban and architectural situations alongside their resulting socio-political implications, that re-use existing spaces or that conceive and open new spaces.

A dialogue will be built at the intersection of both disciplines which traces out the complex relations and interactions of space-sound, both presenting and testing new strategies, methods, possibilities and potentials of sound work within the artistic and applied context.

Tuned City is structured in two main segments -- symposium and site-specific installations.

On the individual days the symposium will approach the topic from five different theoretical and spatial perspectives. Spaces built for the production and reception of sound or acoustically flawed or impossible spaces, public and semi-public urban space, finished and planned spaces, wasteland or cultivated spaces, indoors and outdoors -- the chosen venues correspond with the individual topic of the day and offer plastic illustration and demonstration. Tuned City will try to break down the conventional conference format and to catalyse the discussion via the space in a mixture of academic talk, artistic presentation, performances, reports from working practice, demonstrations, and walks.

Take A Look At These Terrific Tips For Better Nutrition!

Many people experience great difficulty when it comes to the subject of nutrition. Dieting and fitness has become more complex with every fad that hits the market. Although you may be confused at this point in time, this article is meant to guide you through the subject of nutrition with helpful tips and advice.

Pack your own snacks for the flight. Food at airports and on planes can be quite expensive and selection can be limited. To save money and ensure you have healthy food that you enjoy, bring your own. This also can be a lifesaver if you end up in one of the stuck-for-hours-on-the-runway nightmare scenarios.

To keep your diet healthy, you should try to consume many fruits and vegetables each day. The USDA recommended daily allowance of fruits and veggies combined is 9-13 servings a day. That sounds like a lot, but it's really not difficult to fit them in. Have a glass of real orange juice with your breakfast or put tomato pasta sauce on your spaghetti.

Limit the amount of juice and soda that are consumed in your household. While juice does contain some vitamins, it is not a good substitute for eating the whole fruit with the skin. Soda is basically flavored, carbonated water that costs a lot of money. For optimum health you should spend your calories on healthy foods, not on liquid.

Rice and beans, when combined together, create a near perfect protein source. If you are a vegetarian, this can be especially important. Simply make these two things ahead of time and add a little cheese for added flavor. It is a cheap and easy way to get the good nutrition that you need.

Try not to eat simply click the following web site during your meals. In the modern world, people busily gulp their meals, rushing to the next thing. Each meal should be consumed in slow pace, not eaten too fast. Savor go right here . This will cause you to feel full a lot sooner. You will also not tend to overeat after you reach fullness.

Sometimes it is better to add things to your diet rather than remove them. If you absolutely do not have the willpower to replace all those unhealthy snack foods you eat with fruits and vegetables, eat the fruits and vegetables anyway. Slowly begin to phase the snack foods out when you feel you can.

Save your used drink bottles, fill them with water and freeze them. Having water available to quench your thirst is imperative to good health. Frozen water bottles will likely stay cool all day and an added wellness benefit, is that they are handy to grab to wet down a wipe and cool yourself off on hot days.

You want to gain the greatest nutritional value from your food. Fresh vegetables are high on your list. What a loss if you throw away these nutrients through overcooking! When you immerse vegetables in water, much of the nutrients are leached out as they cook and are thrown away in the water. Avoid this by using a steamer and cooking vegetables lightly.

Many dieticians recommend replacing red meats in your diet with fish. If you had tried fish once or twice in the past but really don't see it as something that you could ever eat on a daily basis, remember that there are dozens of different types of fish. Whether you opt for mackerel, mullet, snapper, sardines, or flounder, each kind has its own distinctive flavor and texture. Just because you did not like or two kinds does not mean you will not like any of them.

To lower your blood pressure, you should include plenty of potassium in your diet. Studies have shown that consuming potassium on a regular basis can give you significantly lower blood pressure. Some examples of foods rich in calcium are lima beans, potatoes, and spinach. Fortified orange juice is another great source.

Keep away from foods high in saturated fats. This category includes items made from animal products as well as those made with vegetable oil. http://www.iamsport.org/pg/bookmarks/jonas476dorathy/read/34557574/physical-fitness-tips-that-will-get-you-the-results-you-desire have higher levels of saturated fats than animal products do. Saturated fat can raise fat levels in the body. Even if items are cholesterol-free, they can boost cholesterol levels.

A piece of fruit is a better choice than a glass of fruit juice. When you drink juice, your are consuming sweeteners that were added to it. However, if you eat fresh fruit, you only consume the natural sugars that are in them. Believe it or not, some fruit juices contain more sugars than a can of soda. On top of this, fresh fruit contains vital nutrients and minerals as well as fiber and vitamins, all of which can help to ward off a myriad of medical issues.

Are Collagen and Bone Broth The Keys to Youthful Skin? - HuffPost

Are Collagen and Bone Broth The Keys to Youthful Skin? - HuffPost “Collagen is a protein that’s a major building block of your skin, bones, and connective tissue,” Kellyann Petrucci, a naturopathic doctor and author of Dr. Kellyann’s Bone Broth Diet, tells Clean Plates. “As we age, our bodies make less and less collagen. As a result, we start getting wrinkles, our hair gets thinner and weaker, and our nails aren’t as strong. This is why it’s smart to start adding collagen to your diet as you age—especially once you’re past 30.”

There are diet trackers on the web that can do a great job of helping you track each meal. If you have gained a few pounds recently, take note of what you have been eating. If you are fairly inactive and/or eat foods high in carbohydrates or fats, these facts may be contributing to your gain. Keeping track of meals you eat will help you regulate your portion size and eat healthier.

Folic acid is one of the most crucial nutrients to keep in your diet, because it is important for proper growth and neural health. It is particularly important for women who are pregnant or nursing because a deficiency can lead to major birth defects. Good sources include vegetables, nuts, grain, and organ meats.

Try to eliminate the gluten out of your diet. It has been noticed that those with an allergy to gluten seem to end up feeling much better. It leaves them with a clearer head, more energetic, not as bloated, and all around healthier. Try substituting millet, quinoa or amaranth when you have those carb cravings.

As you can see, good nutrition is easy to integrate into your daily meals, ensuring that you have the vitamins and minerals your body craves. Take care of yourself today and in the years to come by making nutritious consumption a regular part of your routine. You deserve the best nutrition every day.

The slimiest sleazebag sexual predator riding the streets in a bulletproof limo has announced that April is “National Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month.”

It’s almost as if President Dickwad is using himself as the motivator so we can be aware of the magnitude of this problem.

I wonder how the women he’s already assaulted feel about having their own special month.

And befitting this social media president … he announced his proclamation via Twitter.

The opening statement from the White House proclamation:

“Sexual assault crimes remain tragically common in our society, and offenders too often evade accountability. These heinous crimes are committed indiscriminately: in intimate relationships, in public spaces, and in the workplace.”

WTF … this reads like a playbook for Trump and his assaults.  “Evade accountability …  heinous crimes … committed indiscriminately?”

Whoa!  Did any of the White House Bozos read this f**king statement before they released it?  It’s clear the Head Bozo didn’t!

Who told our Predator-in-Chief this was a good idea?

Hope Hicks is gone.  Melania’s not speaking to him.  Ivanka’s pissed because he compares her to the women on his sexual assaultee list.

He’s got no wife beaters left in the West Wing.  But he’s let it be known he wants Rob Porter to boomerang back.

The Seriously Absurd’s crack staff learned that the idea for this “special month” was solely another of the “no-brain-impulse-moves” from 45 himself.

The fact that 45’s a p***y-grabbing-assault-denier-uninvited-kisser doesn’t seem to matter.  He’s desperate to show the world that … as he stated in his campaign … “I adore women.  No one adores women more than I do.”

He knows the best way to clear his name is to spend a month publically tweeting and holding Fake News announcements about Infrastructure Week, or North Korea, or that Beezos guy who’s younger and richer than he is.

Then while we’re distracted … he can declare himself a “Champion for Women.”

Bring back Omarosa … please.

Laura Ingram’s sure to have a good word for him … maybe Trump Enterprises can advertise on “The Ingram Angle.”

Michael Avenatti reportedly spit coffee across Wolf Blitzer’s interview table discussing this latest sexcapapade.

But here’s the Real News … in 2009 President Obama was the first president to proclaim April as National Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month.

Aha … the supreme motivator for Trump!  It’s to trump President Obama … no matter how stupid he looks doing it!  Sad!

Just sayin’ …

2 thoughts on “Trump announces “National Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month” April Fools?

  1. Look at the bright side, Ricky Ricardo!
    Maybe next month will be “Let’s Hit China Where It Hurts” month with huge new tariffs on trivial little things we buy from them like insulin, epinephrine and the raw materials used to make roughly 8,000 other commonly used pharmaceuticals and well as manufactured medical items including pacemakers, implantable orthopedic devices such as artificial hip & knee replacements…WHAT COULD GO WRONG WITH THAT?

    • Hey TL … Thanks for reading … I’m for drying up the import of lead painted toys for toddlers … or piss ’em off enough that they call all of Trump’s loans due! But then, I have that weird sense of humor thing going for me … Appreciate your support …

    At $14.99/wk, they're in a Catch 22 for launch.

    I don't see how they'll attract (paying) drivers until they have a rider base.
    I don't see how they'll get an active rider base without drivers.

    They need to either waive weekly fee for launch or do a per ride fee for now.

How to optimise images for the web

In a previous blog I covered how and where to find images for your website. Now you probably want to know what to do with them and how to optimise them (unless you get your friendly website designer to do that for you…).

Three of the main things to consider are:

  1. Make them the Right Size
  2. Make them Searchable
  3. Make them Pinnable

1. How to make images the right size for the web

When we talk about sizing images on the web, there are 2 factors to consider.

  1. There are the dimensions of an image and how much screen space it uses, generally referred to in pixels (eg. 800 x 600px)
  2. There’s also the file size and its resolution affecting how much space it consumes on the web server and the bandwidth used to serve it up, generally referred to in KiloBytes (eg. 352KB).

The “right size” is a balance between these so that your images still look clear while loading quickly. Generally the larger the dimensions, the larger the file size. And the larger the file size, the slower they will load. Aim to go no larger than 100KB on even your best images.

example of effect of high and low jpeg compression
The image at left is very low (5%) Jpeg compression whilst the right is at very high (80%) – note the pixelation (blurring) on the left. Image from the divine

If you are downloading stock images from the web, especially if you have to pay to download them, make sure you get the minimum size you need.  Bear in mind that most websites are less than 1024 pixels wide, so an 800 pixel (or 800px) wide image will use a fair amount of your screen.  An image of 250-300 pixels wide is still viewable and you can use even smaller than this as a ‘thumbnail’ to be clicked on if someone is interested in seeing a larger copy.

Also, if possible, note the image’s density. Images formatted for printing are often 300 dpi (dots per inch) and should be reduced to the standard 72 dpi used for the web.

If you’ve taken your own photos, make sure you resize them before loading them on your website or blog page. With even the simplest camera these days offering high megapixel photo resolution, most images are too large for web use. Photos from my own camera can be 4MB in size and I reduce them to under 50KB for the web.

Help, I hear you say, I have a CMS but I don’t have Photoshop to resize my photos.

No problem, there are lots of tools around to help you, and many of them are free.

  • If you use Picasa from Google, it has plenty of editing options
  • On PCs, the Microsoft Photo Editor can be used for basic operations on images
  • provides various options from Express if you just want to crop and resize, to Advanced which employs Photoshop-like techniques (working with layers, etc).
  • has an amazing free version that works very much like Photoshop (which can be overwhelming for newbies)
  • If you don’t mind downloading new software to your PC, try
  • – easy upload and will process up to 20 PNG images of up to 3MB each

2. How to make images searchable

Google can’t actually ‘see’ what an image portrays. But just as there are ways to optimise your webpages for the search engines to index and rank them (a process known as SEO or Search Engine Optimisation, which you can read more about here and here), images can also be optimised for search. Images rate quite highly on Google search results, and there is an option to specifically search just on Images. The resulting images will link back to their source page, thereby sending more traffic to your website.

The basics for making your images searchable include:

  • Using a meaningful filename that describes the content of the image, eg. blue-vintage-teapot.jpg rather than DSCF1234.jpg. It’s best to use hyphens (dashes) between the words as the search engines interpret these as spaces.
  • Always adding ‘alt’ text (short for alternative), which is a description that appears if images are not displayed in a browser. Alt=”descriptive text” on the image tag is machine readable and is one of the only ways that Google can understand what an image contains.
  • Use of the ‘title’ tag on an image also offers more of a description and can create a small floating display in some browsers (known as a ‘pop-up tooltip’ but I didn’t want to use the term ‘popup’ and scare you off).

When adding a description, whether via ‘alt’ or ‘title’, consider keywords that people might be searching for. Rather than just repeating your filename such as alt=”blue vintage teapot”, you could expand that to alt=”collectors item blue vintage teapot, late 19th century with floral pattern”.

If your images have strict copyright (eg. your site is about your photographic services) then make sure you have an obvious watermark across all images (thumbnails and full-size) so that even if copied they can’t be used.

3. How to make images Pinnable

Pinterest is a great way of getting your photos seen by more people.

You might think this third one is optional, especially if you don’t actively use Pinterest or maintain your own Pinterest boards. But you might be surprised who does want to Pin your pictures, and why. Even if your products are not particularly photogenic, people don’t only Pin items because they’re attractive. Some people use Pinterest to create a wishlist, a mood board, or a collection of objects, for any number of reasons.

pinterest and pin it buttons are optional but recommended
Pinterest is proving very successful for driving traffic and converting sales via Pinned images.

Pinterest is said to lead to more sales conversions than any other online marketing, so don’t let your images get left behind. Test by making sure your website’s images can be saved when they are viewed (you’ll find some lightbox displays don’t actually allow this) and, to go one step further, you can add a “Pin It” button.

JPG, PNG, GIF – what are the differences in file types?

You probably know that there are different file types around for images, with filename extensions like JPG (or jpeg), PNG and GIF. They each have different attributes in the way they display colour, pixels, etc. You can convert images from one type to another when you alter and save them. The main things to remember are:

  • Use JPG when you want to compress a file (ie. reduce its resolution and filesize while maintaining a good degree of clarity). Jpeg is also the best option for photos and for images that contain a mix of graphics and text.
  • Use PNG when you need a transparent background within an image. PNG is also the best option for text-only images.
  • Use GIF for simple images with a small number of basic colours, eg. an icon or stylised bullet point. It is good for producing a very small filesize. GIF also supports animated imagery (although I strongly suggest you avoid using that feature, unless you’re producing a website for small children).

Spend the time to optimise your images and reap the rewards of having them found, enjoyed and shared by your website’s visitors.

Rileys - The BL Years

What If?

What if Riley hadn't been consigned to history by BL in 1969? What cars might they have produced in the 1970s?
We have already seen the styling mock-up of the 'Landcrab' model that was produced in 1962. If this had been carried through, with a 4- and then 6-cylinder model, Riley could have survived until 1975 alongside Wolesley. But that was the end for Wolesley, apart from the ill-fated brief flirtation with a Princess model. I don't think a Riley Princess would have worked, but perhaps a Riley Marina Coupe? A Riley Allegro doesn't really seem to work, but what else? Well, assuming that the Leyland merger had happened, why not a Riley Dolomite?

A Riley Kestrel for the 1970s?

A Riley Falcon for the 1970s?

Two such models would bring us into the early 1980s. I suppose that a Riley-ised Acclaim is a non starter, and the Metro/Maestro/Montego would hardly stretch to a Riley version too, so we look to Rover. Various people have drawn three-soor SD1s, could this have been badged as the Riley flagship? Why not go the whole hog and have an RMD version too? Could a two door version of the Rover 213/6 ever have been created? If so could this have replaced the Marina based Riley Kestrel?

Riley RMD for the 1980s?

Riley Kestrel for the 1980s?

As we enter the 1990s things become a bit easier again. The second generation Rover 200-series coupe could easily have born Riley badges, perhaps the convertible too. And, with the more modern styling the Rover Group / Honda had developed, it is likely that there would be few other changed to make to the car. Any semblance of a traditional Riley Grille would have long gone for the original launch, and when the Rover grille was glued on the front for the revised models, a Riley Grille wouldn't have looked too different.

And so, at length we come to the mid 1990s. We already know about the proposed Rover 75 Coupe which May have worn Riley badges. Could a 400/45 coupe have been developed too? If Riley were alive and healthy then there seems little reason why such a car wouldn't have been developed. The trouble would be that, as it was in 1969, Riley was competing too closely with the other marques under BLs wing. In 1969 Riley was a halfway house between a sports saloon and a luxury saloon. Thus it was competing with Wolesley and MG from BMC, Rover and Triumph from Leyland and, if they had tried to push the marque upmarket at all, Jaguar too.
In 1996 when BMW took over, Rover was being repositioned in that very same spot, and to make matters worse BMW were producing similar cars too. Even MG, whose fortunes have waxed and waned, were producing sports saloons throughout the 1980s and again in the post-BMW era.

So, what if? If Riley had survived in 1969, there seems little doubt that it would have disappeared in 1975 alongside Wolesley. There were simply too many cars being badged with too many names. Something had to give, and sadly Riley was the first victim of many.

Veteran Driver Takuma Sato Wins Indy 500

Takuma Sato the 2017 Indy 500! ©RIS/Larry Clarino

SPEEDWAY, IN – RIS – Takuma Sato, driving for Andretti Autosport passed Helio Castroneves with three laps to go and held on for the victory in the 101st Indianapolis 500 Mile race. The margin of victory was 0.2011 seconds. Ed Jones, Max Chilton and Tony Kanaan rounded out the top five at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Sato, from Tokyo, Japan started from the fourth position and battled for victory in a thrilling Indy 500 that had a record 15 leaders. There were 35 lead changes.

"Unbelievable feeling," Takuma Sato Said. "I cannot thank this whole team (enough). Look at these guys. Fantastic. It was obviously a tough race. But Helio really drives fair. I can trust him. I can really trust him coming from the outside. It was a fantastic race."

Castroneves loss was heartbreaking. The veteran driver had a chance to win a fourth Indy 500, which would have tied him with the three four-time race winners (A.J. Foyt, Al Unser and Rick Mears). His day almost ended when Scott Dixon’s car flew over Castroneves during an incident early in the race. Dixon’s crash was frightening and completely destroyed the vehicle.

Another incident took out four drivers on lap 183. The incident took out Will Power, Oriel Servia, James Davison (substituting for injured Dale Coyne driver Sebastien Bourdais) and James Hinchcliffe.

Two-time Formula 1 World Champion Fernando Alonso’s McLaren-Honda-Andretti Honda engine blew up with 20 laps to go in the race. He led the race and was in contention for the win until his engine failed. “I felt the noise and saw the smoke,” Alonso said. “It is a shame.”

The race included prior Indy 500 winners:

Helio Castroneves (2001, 2002 and 2009): Car was damaged after driving in grass to avoid contact during Dixon crash. Penalized with drive thru penalty for passing before the green flag on a restart. Passed by race winner  Takuma Sato at end of race.

Scott Dixon (2008): The Pole winner’s day ended early after a violent crash between Turn 1 and 2. Jay Howard lost control of his car exiting Turn 2. It scraped the outside wall then turned down the track in front of Dixon.  The Force of impact caused Dixon’s car to fly into the air backwards. It flew over Helio Castroneves car, landed sideways on top of the SAFER barrier and punctured a hole into the inside retaining fence. The rear of Dixon’s Chip Ganassi Racing Honda was sheared off by the impact.  Dixon and Howard were not injured. The race was stopped for 19 minutes to repair the fence.

Tony Kanaan (2013): In contention for win. Finished fifth.

Juan Pablo Montoya (2000 and 2015): Slow pit stop. Factor late in race. Finished sixth.

Ryan Hunter-Reay (2014): Honda engine blew up while leading race on lap 137. Led seven times during race.

Buddy Lazier (1996): Car spun in Turn 2 and backed into the outside SAFER barrier. Transported to the local hospital for evaluation.

Alexander Rossi (2006): Trouble fueling during a late race pit stop. Finished seventh.

Sato was the first Japanese race winner. It was his second IndyCar victory. His last came at Long Beach in 2013.

This was Andretti Autosport’s fifth Indy 500 victory and 56th win in Indycar.

Land of bourbon, horses, and harriers

Land of bourbon, horses, and harriers

Got on a plane and flew to Kentucky with Derrick Jones. While sitting at the gate in Chicago I started texting with Derrick trying to figure out if he was in the same terminal as me. He texts his gate number, I look up and there he is sitting 10 feet away from me. It was a pretty funny moment, kinda like something out of a cheesy sitcom. We crammed ourselves into the back of the regional jet and headed off for the little hop down to Louisville KY. From there it was an hour drive to our hotel in Lexington. The hostess was so brimming with Midwestern hospitality I wanted to tear my ears off. I felt like she was just taunting me with her niceness. I realize this is a character flaw in me, and only a little bit her fault.

We dumped our stuff and headed over to the course for a look and run around. I was imagining some nice manicured path lazily wrapping around a lush Kentucky Bluegrass infield. This is not what we found at. The park was a frozen wasteland of hills and turns and broken clods of turf. A North wind was whipping down from the hilltop prison on the horizon. It was only to get worse by race time.After a nice dinner and beers with some of the team, it was back to the friendliest place on earth to try and get some rest.

Saturday morning dawned grey and cold and windy. I loaded up and coffee and headed to the race. USATF had setup a large heated tent. The air in it was so think with BENGAY, IceyHot, and Vick’s Vapor Rub, I was sure the gas heaters was going to ignite the fumes and blow us all to hell.

The race started like all cross country races start, with everyone forgetting all about any ideas of rational pacing and sprinting across the field, slowing forming and arrowhead and shaft. I like to think I kept my calm and settled in quickly to a reasonable sustainable pace, but my opening 5:35 doesn’t exactly back that up, especially when it was immediately followed up by a 5:50. I manage to settle into a nice rhythm after mile 2 and started grinding out 5:40’s and slowly working my way up.

It’s impossible to tell from the photos how uneven the ground was. Several runners, including Derrick fell during the race as the landed badly on the frozen clumps of earth. I managed to stay on my feet, but was thankful for my flexible ankles which rolled more than a few times.

I finished further back than I would have liked. I was hoping for top 50 (I was 51st in 2014 in 34:32 but that course was 200 meters short so more like 35:12) but finished 66th in 35:22. At the 4k split I was in 77th place, it was a ton of work to pick up those 11 spots and with the benefit of hindsight I feel like I could have been much further up at that point. But it is just as likely I would have then faded and lost places, ending up in the same final spot or worse. 35:22 is about what I’ve been racing for 10K on the roads, so overall this was a solid time. My team, the Central Mass Striders, finished 4th. I thought we had outside shot at the podium, but we finished nearly 100 points behind the 3rd place team. So while our placement was close to top 3, we got whooped pretty good by West Valley Track Club, Boston Athletic Association, and Bowerman Track Club.

Team Results

I had a great time racing this year. Being part of a group of dedicated old guys, who show up in heat and cold, who hop in their cars or on planes to race, has helped keep me motivated to be the best runner I can be. While my times may be gradually but inexorably slowing, I still find joy in racing and trying to squeeze every last second out of these legs.

Next up is some shorter races starting with a downhill road mile to mark the new year, and then some indoor track races. Also keep your eye out for a possible Star Wars The Last Jedi review in the next few days. You can also look back at these past Star Wars related posts.

Little Fish, Big Pond

Little Fish, Big Pond

Little fish, big pond. That about sums up where I am with my racing right now. Nothing in my life has been as humbling as my racing results since moving away from Rochester. In western NY, I could expect to finish top 5 in nearly every race and certainly top 3 in my age-group even in the biggest races. At the most competitive races like the Lilac 10k or Bergen 5k which served as the USATF Niagara Championships I never finished worst than 4th in my age-group and that was running my second slowest 10k time of 36:14 at Lilac in 2010 30-39 age-group.

Since moving to New England I’ve been handed one ass whooping after another. And while I have lost a bit of time (OK more than just a bit) even if i was running my master’s PRs I’d still be looking up at the finishers on the podium at many races. For the past 2 years I’ve been using that as an excuse for not running my best, and not training as I should.

The New England USATF 5 Mile Championship (AKA Ribfest 5 Miler) was my wake-up call. I allowed myself to start 6 or 7 rows from the front. I tried to shuffle around people for the first half mile which I ran in 3:11. It was right then and there that I decided I had to get serious about my training and my racing. I may not be in peak shape anymore but I am not yet resigned to shuffling along in the middle of the pack. If I had merely started closer to the front and run the first half mile in 2:50 (a very reasonable 5:40 pace) I could have finished 3rd in the 40-49 age-group. My gun time/chip time difference of 7 seconds was double that of everyone that finished ahead of me. I’d convinced myself I didn’t deserve to start with the leaders, so I didn’t finished with them.

I managed to close the last mile in 5:32 feeling great on a very hot and humid day. I need to take that feeling with me into each workout and race. Maybe I’m not as fast as I was 2 years ago, but I’m not ready to be an also ran just yet. I’m stuck right in the middle of my age-group with no good excuse for poor performances. So as the other Dylan said…

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Take a good look at this picture.  This is what a friend of the Sikh people looks like.  Mr. Jack Layton, Leader of the NDP.

In the midst of this time of remembrance, we have gotten a gift of sorts from Jack LayTon, Leader of Canada's New Democratic Party - NDP (my party, if anyone's interested).  I am reproducing his statement below, courtesy of SAN (Sikh Activist Network).

I ask all my Canadian readers to please call him at 416-405-8914 to thank him for taking this bold, courageous step on our behalf.  Even if you aren't Canadian, I think a Thank you would be most appropriate.

I also suggest you consider joining the NDP.  That is a "Thank you that would be most appreciated.

Here ios a transcript of the statement which can be copy/pasted if anyone wishes to do so:
November 3, 2010

Statement by New Democrat Party Leader Jack Layton on the tragedy of November 1984
It is with great sorrow that I extend my sympathies on the 26th anniversary of the tragic pogroms of 1984 that targeted Sikh men, women and children.

The New Democratic Party of Canada stands in solidarity with the Sikh community, demands justice for the survivors and an explanation for why and how this community was targeted by organized mobs and government officials.

The victims and survivors of 1984 cannot sit idly by, waiting for the Indian government to recognize their plight and frustration.  Rehabilitation and support for the broken
families, especially the widows, must be prioritized.  The negligence of the police must be examined.  The truth and those guilty must be brought to justice.

These are not demands - these are obligations of a democratic government to its citizens.

Remembrance is the tie that binds us to our past as it guides us  for
the challenges of the future.

Lest we forget.

  1. Sukhmandir Kaur ji,

    Thanks. I have just finished transcribing the statement so it can be copy/pasted.

    I'll post it in a few.

  2. That sounds hopeful!
    I just pray that this isn't a political stunt to gain votes. Time shall reveal.

    And yes, I intend to thank the fellow for taking a bold step. It's not always easy to pay attention to what others choose to ignore.

  3. H. Maryam ji,

    He's a good man. The only politician I say that about.

Please feel free to speak your mind. Dissension is allowed and welcomed. I only delete illegal comments and spam. OK, maybe obscene, but not usually.

If you want to contact me personally, my address is theroadtokhalistan@gmail.com

MEXICO, DAY 26: Tuxtla Gutiérrez, capital of Chiapas

After a long and winding drive southeast through multiple sets of mountain ranges, we arrived in Tuxtla Gutiérrez, the capital and commercial center of the final state in our road-trip through Mexico – Chiapas.

Chiapas is all the way in Mexico’s southeast corner, bordering Guatemala. This mountainous region, with its large number of Mayan-descended indigenous tribes and its notorious history of resistance to Mexico’s central government, is culturally much closer to Guatemala than it is to the rest of Mexico, and many of the towns and villages here have a very different ambience than we’d become accustomed to throughout our long drive through about a dozen other Mexican states. In fact, before Chiapas was finally annexed to Mexico, it was part of a different country that also included western Guatemala. (called Los Altos - this country no longer exists.) In the 1990s, Chiapas made world headlines when a federation of indigenous groups calling themselves the Zapatistas, weary of subversion by wealthy plantation-owners and fed up with being marginalized by the Mexican government, started a rebellion that almost led to a minor civil war. Things have been much calmer recently, with no major violence in over 5 years. However the Mexican army troops still have a network of checkpoints throughout the state, while we saw several villages with signs proclaiming themselves “Zapatista” and anti-government.

Chiapas was by far our favorite state in Mexico. The place is absolutely beautiful! The highland areas offer stunning mountain vistas around every turn, as well as beautiful mountain lakes and river trips through breath-taking canyons, while the lowland jungles in the northeast part of the state are like a tropical paradise, with crystal clear waterfalls and swimming holes galore. Chiapas is also an archaeological treasure trove, with the ruins of a multitude of ancient Mayan cities hidden amongst and buried under the vast jungles.

But before we hit the woods, we decided to spend the weekend in town. Our goal on Friday was to reach San Cristóbal de las Casas, since it had been highly recommended to us. However, when we finally reached Tuxtla Gutiérrez after almost 7 hours of driving, we decided to save the rest of the journey to San Cristóbal for the next day.

Our Friday night in Tuxtla was nothing really to write home about. To us it was just a big city with a lot of traffic, and not really reflective of what the rest of the state held in store. As we drove through the outer part of Tuxtla, we passed a string of corporate chains lining the highway, including Sam’s Club, Burger King, KFC, and a few others we were not expecting. Nevertheless, once we got into the downtown area, it was easy to find a variety of cheap hotels, cafes, and veggie-friendly food for Carley. We were especially pleased with Naturalissmo, where we enjoyed an excellent breakfast the next morning.

We were also really impressed with the zoo in Tuxtla, the only zoo in Mexico worth checking out, according to our Lonely Planet book. Almost all Mexican zoos are described as “sad” in this book, but this zoo, set amidst a dense forest, is widely regarded as one of the best in Latin America. The fauna displayed here are all native to Chiapas, and most of the animals (except the crocodiles and bats) seemed to have a very large area in which to roam around, while still visible from the well-designed walkways. Rob was a bit overly fascinated by “the stuff that could kill us”, and Carley had to practically drag him out of the building housing the insects and spiders. (At least we learned that the huge whip spider – “añara látigo” – that we killed in our room at Carlos Einstein’s hostel a week earlier was harmless; nevertheless, if you saw a spider like this (click here) next to your bed, what would you do?) Carley’s favorites were the spider monkeys, swinging through the high treetops above us, and the big cats, which included jaguars and pumas. Unfortunately, we never spotted the howler monkeys on display, though we definitely heard their deep, rumbling barks, both at the zoo and a few days later in the real jungle. We also both enjoyed seeing the broad selection of delightfully colored parrots, macaws, toucans and quetzals, all of which are endangered and hard to see in the wild these days due to over-hunting.

Next it was off to San Cristóbal de las Casas, where we would spend our Saturday night.

On to DAY 27: San Cristóbal De Las Casas, the heart of Chiapas

All-Amerikkkan Bada$$ [Pro Era/Cinematic Music, 2017]
Interrupting a catalogue that's essentially an ongoing autobiography to preach to the disenfranchised in the year of the coup, it makes sense for Flatbush's finest to reverse the normal hip-hop sequencing strategy of starting raw and sneaking in anything soft or conscious at the end. The first half here starts almost sweet, cushioning such messages as "In the land of the free it's full of freeloaders / Leave us dead in the street to be their organ donors" but also "Tryna stay alive and just stay peaceful" with crooning, chorales, r&b grooves. Still, I get happier myself when six street-flavored tracks toughen the second half up and cameos change it up: guttural Meechy Darko, Chronixx representing for Ethiopia, Schoolboy Q leaving his penis out of this. And real-versus-fake brags are beyond tired, a rhymer this literate has a right to go after the "ad lib rapping" of Soundcloud freestylers, especially while scoring points like "I need dead presidents to represent me / Cause I never knew a live one that represent me" and "Nowadays they hangin' us by a different tree / Branches of the government / I can name all three." Inspirational Verse: "Fuck Donald Trump." A-

Solving Asian Investment Problems since 2006

Welcome to Rogers

Welcome to

Investment Advisors

Rogers Investment Advisors K.K. is part of the award-winning Wolver Hill group of companies, an Asia-focused alternative investment asset management and advisory group established by Edward J. Rogers in 2006. With offices in Hong Kong and Tokyo, the group has used its local presence to establish best-in-class investment, operations and risk due diligence processes that have been used to create funds that have consistently yielded superior portfolio performance for clients. The group is positioned to capitalize on the growing Asia-focused fund industry through its local presence, global footprint and historical success in seeding and growing Asian financial services businesses.

Our primary goals are to identify and solve clients’ Asian investment problems. Problems range from sourcing superior Asian investment products to raising Asian capital

We have created access to “Best in Class” local and Asia-focused Private Equity and Hedge Fund investment opportunities across multiple, non-correlated strategies and asset classes. We have protected client assets in market downturns while creating significant positive returns during market rallies

We create superior investment results by conducting exhaustive local onsite due diligence prior to investment, complemented by rigorous post-investment oversight

We build the best platform for emerging managers in Asia by providing a top tier support infrastructure including control, compliance and technology, thereby allowing managers to focus on executing their strategies. We can also assist in raising institutional capital through our licensed, onshore entities in Japan and Hong Kong.

Our Research capabilities solve four problems for investors:

Too Far
Asia is not a 14 hour flight away for us. From our offices in Tokyo and Hong Kong we have real-time monitoring and interaction with our Asian managers and investments.

Too Foreign
If you don’t know Asian languages, cultural or business norms, you are at a significant disadvantage as an investor. We are multi-lingual and multi-cultural, giving us a linguistic and cultural arbitrage opportunity in Asia. Many competitors also cannot conduct investment, operations or business due diligence in Japanese, Mandarin and Cantonese – giving us a significant, ongoing informational advantage.

Too Small
Asia currently represents 25% of the world's GDP and it's been growing at the fastest rate of any region in the world over the past 50 years. Even so, most US and European investors have failed to directly participate in this incredible growth story. Asian investments represent far too small an allocation in their portfolios. With our local presence, having conquered the problems of "too far" and "too foreign", we are able to open the doors to Asian opportunities.

Too Expensive
Our Asian offices create significant cost advantages. Thanks to our offices in Hong Kong and Tokyo, our onsite due diligence visits are far cheaper for us than for those who have to travel to the region. This allows us to conduct many more onsite visits, and creates superior research information and returns.
