I came to Europe to play baseball for the Attnang Athletics of Austria in 1999 and returned permanently in 2004. Attnang is a small town of 8,000 and yes, during the off days, sometimes I found myself banging my head against the wall because back then, there was no...
A New York boy living in Austria and umpiring baseball in Europe for what seems like decades, Dana Beszczynski uses the European baseball knowledge and wisdom he gained over the years to to help answer a lot of questions about the level of baseball across Europe and...Carrick is an extraordinary textured fabric highlighting the intricate and nuanced beauty of fibers. This complex textile was created using a novelty yarn that is cabled before weaving, giving Carrick its sophisticated, braided face; a nod to the Carrick knot, after which it was named. A 54″ width, 100% Solution-Dyed Polypropylene upholstery fabric, Carrick is bleach cleanable, bacterial resistant, and passes Cal 117. In 6 sophisticated neutrals, such as Elderflower and Macchiato, this attractive textile has an abrasion resistance of over 50,000 Double Rubs (Wyzenbeek, Wire Screen). A durable and smart choice for outdoor design applications, this textile is also a handsome selection for benches, headboards, and seating areas in high traffic spaces.
As response mails arrive in my "normal" outlook account, I'd like to see them automatically on civicrm in order to have a better overview. Is there a possibility to create a folder in outlook that updates mails in civicrm?
One way would be to create a special response email address and then use CiviCRM's email-to-activity functionality to attach them to your CiviCRM contact records. You could also make a folder in your IMAP account and let that folder be imported into CiviCRM.
CiviCRM can automatically retrieve email from a specified inbox and file it as an email activity against contacts corresponding to sender and recipients of the email. New contacts are created for emails not already in the database.
Special email address: Set up a special email address for your organization, e.g |||EMAIL_ADDRESS||| Users can then add this address in the Bcc field for your outbound emails; they will get auto filed in CiviCRM as described above. No one who receives the email will see this special address if the Bcc field is used.
Another option is to use our outlook plugin and extension. The extension will let you file emails into CiviCRM from your outlook client and it will also create contacts where needed. Its a bit more powerful than activity to email as it will let you pick from duplicate civicrm contacts and it also lets you create/update cases from emails too.

But… what if that was the wrong thing to tell Luke? Actually, that may not be the right question, but bear with me. Because there’s a lot we don’t know about how long Luke trained on Dagobah, other than it wasn’t very long. It certainly not long enough for everything Yoda taught Luke to sink in.
I’ve seen this in my own martial arts journey. My teacher will tell me something. Then tell me again. And again. She may try to say it in a different way or speak to my training partner, instead. One night, she may get fed up and bark at me (or at someone else). And then… one day, I might hear the exact same words from someone else. Or something just clicks. A light will blink on and suddenly it’s “why didn’t you say this before?” Well, of course, my teacher has said it before. I just wasn’t ready to hear it.
Part of the problem with Yoda’s advise to Luke isn’t in the way Yoda said it. This isn’t a dig at the way Yoda talks. I would never complain about that. No, the problem may be in how Luke appears to have interpreted it, by the time we find him on Ahch-To.
When I’m on the mat and my teacher demonstrates a technique, especially if the application is a bit out of the box, she doesn’t just tell us to do it. She tells us to try it. That’s all she can really ask of us. Because not everyone will get a technique the first time around. Or even the hundredth. Or the thousandth.
The point is not that you don’t try. You do. And then you try again. And again. You do it over and over again. And yes, even when I think I’ve gotten a technique down, I will screw it up again. Or maybe it works fine with lower ranked students but falls apart when I work with one of my sempais. It’s when I give up, for whatever reason, (and I’ve given up plenty of times) that my teacher wants to know why.
That seems to be what Yoda was getting at, when he appears to Luke, on Ahch-To. The problem with “Do or do not” is what if you “do it” and you fail? Then what? Unfortunately, this is where Luke suffers from not having access to a teacher. Sadly, the nature of the Star Wars galaxy is such that, as far as we know, there isn’t anyone Luke can go to, for advice. Or, worse, anyone to make suggestions or point to a different way of doing things. There’s no one he can go to, to deepen his training in the Force.
Obi-wan, Yoda and Anakin may have become Force Ghosts, after “Return of the Jedi”, but from what I can tell, from “The Last Jedi”, they hadn’t been around much. Or… maybe they were around and Luke wasn’t ready to hear them, before he cut himself off from the Force.
This is not to suggest that Luke feels as if he’s learned everything he needed to know, from Obi-wan and Yoda. We know he didn’t. He couldn’t have, given the short amount of time he trained. Unfortunately Fate-of-the-Galaxy-type time constraints are bad for any sort of life practice. Which is what learning the ways of the Force is, in a way.
My teacher’s teacher is fond of saying that there is no graduation from aikido. “Except, maybe, when you die,” is something akin to the phrase he uses. But in Star Wars, we know that even death doesn’t lead to true mastery of the Force. Even in death, there are things for a Jedi to learn, if he or she is open to them. We can hope that, in death, Luke finds a way to continue trying to learn as much as he can. Especially since he appears to have left Rey in a similar predicament.
Keeping Nuclear Plants Operating
April 25, 2022
Solving the nuclear conundrum. Above, acknowledging that the US is dependent on foreign sources of Uranium, including Russia. Recycling waste proposed as an option, but I have questions. Siting issues for such a facility comes to mind.
Below, Biden administration will provide subsidies to keep existing plants from closing. I’ve posted a story about one such plant in the upper midwest, the Palisades plant in South Haven, MI.
The Department of Energy opened up a $6 billion fundWednesday to prevent more U.S. nuclear power plants from closing, as they seek to preserve the nation’s largest source of carbon-free electricity.
Nuclear power plants have been shutting down in recent years, as they grow more expensive to maintain and face more competition from low-cost wind and solar power, along with natural gas-fired plants.
“U.S. nuclear power plants contribute more than half of our carbon-free electricity, and President (Joe) Biden is committed to keeping these plants active to reach our clean energy goals,” Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm said in a statement.. “We’re using every tool available to get this country powered by clean energy by 2035.”
The United States has the world’s largest nuclear fleet with 93 reactors, supplying 20 percent of the nation’s power needs. Since 2012 12 nuclear plants have closed, with another seven retirements scheduled through 2025, according to the Congressional Research Service.
The fund, the Civil Nuclear Credit Program, stems from the passage of last year’s $1 trillion infrastructure bill, which contained more than $100 billion in funding for clean energy development, from hydrogen fuel to advanced batteries.
Nuclear plants that have already announced plans to close would be favored to receive funding, the Energy Department said
