Le Royaume Béni des Ste. Jehanne et Ste. Thérèse is "The Kingdom Blessed of St. Joan and St. Thérèse" shown to me by these two magnificent saints like gates opening on an astonishingly beautiful Castle shining from the peak of a panoramic mountain. Le Royaume reflects my joy in living out the traditional French School of Catholic Spirituality under the friendship, sisterly care, and co-patronage of St. Joan of Arc and St. Thérèse of Lisieux. Le Royaume is about seeking, loving, and defending the Kingdom of God as reflected in the mystical union between Heaven and the Kingdom of France. This (t)radition of France as the "Eldest Daughter of the Church," glorified in St. Joan of Arc's divinely appointed mission, points nobly to the resplendent beauty of French Catholic spirituality and in general to the dogmatic (T)raditions of the Church, such as True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin (hyper-dulia) and devotion to the saints (dulia). Le Royaume celebrates the medieval faith and culture of France; yet, it is, at the same time, not bound by a particular point in history. It is eternal as a Form in the Immaculate Heart of Mary who holds the fleur-de-lys close to her heart.
This Kingdom of Sts. Joan and Thérèse is "La France Mystique," the mystical Kingdom of France, which Kingdom, through the consecration of France to the Virgin Mary in 1638 by King Louis XIII and by the later decrees of Popes Pius XI (for St. Joan of Arc) and Pius XII (for St. Thérèse), belongs to the Virgin Mary with our saintly sisters as secondary co-patronesses. It uniquely emanates with what I describe as "the most beautiful color in the heavens," that is, the combined spirituality of St. Joan of Arc and St. Thérèse of Lisieux as they guide us in their saintly and sisterly care on the Trail of the Dogmatic Creed to the center of the Immaculate Heart of Mary where Jesus Christ is enthroned in all of His glory.

"That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind."
–Neil A. Armstrong
Man is able to do such wonderful things in this world. There is no end to what man can achieve when he behaves responsibly and honestly, working together with others to discover more about himself and the universe. God has truly made man in His own image with all the power and creativity that that implies.
The danger that forever surrounds man is greed, pride and the misuse of "power".
As a recovering alcoholic I understand this only too well. I wanted to be out in front, and ego made me arrogant and selfish. If this is true for me and other human beings, it is also true for governments, countries and alliances. Countries don't make wars, people do; countries don't have achievements, people do – and this universe must be seen as belonging to everyone or it will belong to no one!

9 Things Your Teeth Really Says About Your Health
Every part of your body has a lot to say about your health — this article will be discussing about how your teeth affect your health. Now you might be thinking your teeth and gums have nothing to do with your health, but they can actually show early warning signs of serious health conditions across your entire body, from lung cancer to heart disease to dementia. Read on to know what different types of teeth problems might mean.
1. Type 2 diabetes
The severe gum disease known as periodontitis, can be an early sign of type 2 diabetes, as discovered by a February 2017 study. Researchers studied over 300 middle-aged adults and found those with severe gum disease - roughly a quarter of participants - were at a higher risk for diabetes because they were more likely to be overweight, with an average BMI of 27 or higher. Nearly one in five of those with periodontitis had previously undiagnosed type 2 diabetes, compared with 10%t of those with mild to moderate gum disease and 8.5% with no gum disease.
2. Pregnancy
If you have the best oral health but all of a sudden you start noticing that your gums are inflamed and bleeding, it may be a sign you're pregnant, it is called gingivitis. According to the American Pregnancy Association, gingivitis is common during pregnancy because the hormonal changes increase blood flow to the gum tissue, causing your gums to be more sensitive, irritable, and swollen. What's more, these new hormones can thwart your body's ability to fight bacteria, increasing your risk for plaque buildup. Haaa stressful
3. Alzheimer's disease
Alzheimer's is a kind of dementia that causes problems with memory, thinking and behavior
People with poor oral hygiene or gum disease might be at a higher risk of developing - or having - Alzheimer's disease, according to a July 2013 study, which found a greater presence of a periodontal disease-related bacteria, Porphyromonas gingivalis, in the brains of people with dementia. The Alzheimer's Association points out gum disease doesn't cause dementia, and it's much more likely Alzheimer's causes people to forget to take good care of their teeth.
4. Vitamin deficiency
Malnutrition and poor oral health and have interdependent relationship - each one can lead to the other. A January 2013 study found that, without enough vitamins, your mouth has a lower resistance to the microbial biofilm that comes from plaque and a lower ability to heal inflamed gum tissue. A deficiency of vitamin A and D can affect the enamel on your teeth, while a vitamin B deficiency can cause your lips to crack, your cheeks to develop ulcers, your gum lining to become inflamed, and your mouth and tongue to develop a burning sensation.
5. Osteoporosis
According to wikipedia, Osteoporosis is a disease where increased bone weakness increases the risk of a broken bone.
In a December 2012 analysis of 17 studies, 11 showed a connection between those who have periodontal disease also having osteoporosis. The American Academy of Periodontology explains the link is probably thanks to the fact that osteoporosis exacerbates tooth loss by decreasing the density of the bone that supports the teeth, compromising the foundation on which the teeth live.
6. Sugar
Sugar is the sole reason of tooth decay, or cavities, in both kids and adults, according to a May 2014 study. British researchers looked at public health records from around the world and found that 60 to 90% of U.S. school-age kids as well as 92% of U.S. adults have had tooth decay at some point in their lives. Compared to Nigeria, only 2 percent of people in Nigeria - a place where sugar in the diet is almost completely nonexistent - have experienced tooth decay. This is backed by a February 2012 study that found obese kids are more likely to have cavities because they nosh on sugary and fatty foods more often, and the more you expose your teeth to damaging substances, the higher your risk for cavities.
7. Lung cancer
People with gum disease have an increased risk of developing lung cancer, according to June 2016 study. Even more, if you have periodontal disease and diabetes, the risk for lung cancer jumps even higher. Researchers aren't quite sure why - one of the studies within this analysis speculated oral bacteria might play a role in cancer cells developing in the lungs, while another suggests the treatment for periodontal disease may help reduce lung cancer risk.
8. Heart disease
The American Dental Association points out that we now have over three decades of research confirming an association between gum disease, plaque buildup, and cardiovascular disease. A February 2017 research from the American Stroke Association confirms even adults with mild gum disease are nearly two times more likely to have an ischemic stroke risk than those without oral health issues. But the argument is still out on whether the infectious and inflammatory gum disease process contributes to heart attacks and stroke, or whether the two merely cross paths because of mutual risk factors, like smoking, age, and type 2 diabetes.
9. Eating disorder
Yep, your dentist may be the first person to find out you have an eating disorder. Studies show that up to 89% of patients with bulimia (Bulimia nervosa, also known as simply bulimia, is an eating disorder characterized by binge eating followed by purging) show signs of tooth erosion from the bile acid passing by their teeth so often, according to the American Dental Association. Over time, this loss of tooth enamel can cause your teeth to change colour, shape, length and sensitivity levels.

Probably others have seen this, but today in my reading of Luke 10, God led me to remember Revelation 9 in comparison. I wasn't studying end times specifically, just in the Word with my quiet time. I love it when God reveals Scripture like that at most unexpected times! I wanted to share this with others, so:
Luke 10:18-19:
He said to them, "I was watching Satan fall from heaven like lightning. Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing will injure you."
What first made me think of the passage in Revelation was actually the mention of scorpions, but Luke 10:18 in relation to Revelation 9:1 caught my eye as well.
Revelation 9:1-4 (The Fifth Trumpet):
Then the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star from heaven which had fallen to the earth; and the key of the bottomless pit was given to him. He opened the bottomless pit, and smoke went up out of the pit, like the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by the smoke of the pit. Then out of the smoke came locusts upon the earth, and power was given them, as the scorpions of the earth have power. They were told not to hurt the grass of the earth, nor any green thing, nor any tree, but only the men who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads.
The passage in Luke 10 is an awesome promise to us as believers that WE WILL OVERCOME even the powers of the enemy, in whatever form they manifest, and that we will be protected by our Savior Jesus Christ during the end times! Definitely something to study more…

Welcome to the World's First Great Big Vegetable Challenge! Six years ago we went on a vegetable journey of a lifetime. A 7 year year old boy named Freddie and his mother faced up to the challenge of turning him from a Vegetable-Phobic into a boy who will eat and even enjoy some of life's leafier pleasures. We ate through the alphabet of vegetables...and returned to tell the tale. Join our Great Big Veg Challenge!

Those vegetable faces keep coming in.....
It has been Britain's wettest summer on record. Entertaining children in the wet is never easy. We have watched our entire DVD collection, played board games and visited all the museums. But who would have thought the answer to family boredom lay in the vegetable basket? As the rain pelted down on the roof of our kitchen, we made faces out of vegetables. What started off as a desperate cry for help from grinding boredom, has now turned into real entertainment. Here are is an update of all of your creations. We challenged you all to find your inner child and we haven't been disappointed. Especial thanks to children like Ethan, Ella and Leila from Freddie who loved seeing your vegetable pictures.
Those of you who havent yet found time, or vegetables, go on - have a go, you know you want to!
Thank you so far to Amanda at Figs,Olives,Wine, David at Book the Cook, Joanna at Joanna's Food, Celia at Purple Podded Peas, Tanna at My Kitchen in Half Cups, Ed and Leila at The Slow Cook, Alanna at Kitchen Parade/A Veggie Venture, Holler at Tinned Tomatoes, Rebecca at Rebecca Writes, Megan at Meganscookin, Manda at Cat of Stripes, Karen at Cracking Good Egg, Joanna at myvegetableblog, Cassie at Veggiemealplans Molly from batter-splattered and Katie from Thyme For Cooking Meg Wolff at Becoming Whole , Top Veg at Top Veg.com Maggie at Magpie Musing, Alanja at Collecting Tokens and Helen at Ihatefirstgreatwestern...Keep sending them in!

The slide show is divine, Charlotte. This is going to catch on, I can feel it. Who can resist?ReplyDelete
i love it! i just wished i had something more than some wilting salad in my house this afternoon!?ReplyDelete
One womans wilted salad is another man's picasso...
WONDERFUL faces ... yesterday I made one quickly as kitchen therapy, and it made me feel much much better. Today, inspired by Alex, Charlotte, Amanda and of course Celia, I'm going to make another, in my attempt at art. Yes, it IS addictive!ReplyDelete
- Charlotte12:43 PM
Go for it! Vegetable Faces could be a new mass movement. The latest in kitchen therapy.ReplyDelete
This is sooo nice! It brought a smile to my face when I needed it. For that I thank you.ReplyDelete
Hi Charlotte, I have had a go and posted on my site www.crackinggoodegg.blogspot.com.ReplyDelete
I've also emailed you.
There are some great faces here. This is a lot of fun.
Charlotte, this is just such a fun idea! The images made me smile and inspired me to create my own veggie face! Thanks for including it! :DReplyDelete
Have a great week!
I love it! I will try to make a good face for you!ReplyDelete
Thanks Charlotte and co. Having just returned from 3 weeks away this was just what I needed this morning. We may even have a go at veggie faces.ReplyDelete
- Charlotte at GBVC9:04 AM
Expat Chef Beth and Amanda at Little Foodies, please have a go. The more the merrier - email them to me when you have a moment.ReplyDelete
Hope you are all having a lovely summer.
PS So far we have faces from Canada, USA, Australia, Scotland, England and France. Any other countries fancy entering the international vegetable face making festival?
Very creative ... and a fun way to play with food. It reminds me of a song we sing with the school kids ... Aiken DrumReplyDelete
Charlotte, there's a coffee table book in this. Maybe you add some by celebrity chefs or something?ReplyDelete

When you're good friends with director James Cameron, even your character's death in one of his films doesn't mean he won't find a way to bring you back for another.
"When you have a science-fiction series, a science-fiction franchise, you're never dead, unless your DNA is expunged from the universe," he hinted a few years back. "And then there's always time travel!"
Cameron has announced that Sigourney Weaver, long rumored to be returning to the "Avatar" franchise, will have a role in the next three films - this despite her scientist character dying at the end of the first movie.
"Sigourney and I have a long creative history, dating back to 1985 when we made Aliens," Cameron told Deadline. "We're good friends who've always worked well together, so it just feels right that she's coming back for the Avatar sequels. Her character of Grace Augustine, as fans know, died in the first movie, so she's playing a different and in many ways more challenging character in the upcoming films. We're both looking forward to this new creative challenge, the latest chapter in our long and continuing collaboration."
While it's not yet been revealed what Weaver will be playing in Cameron's world of Pandora, I have a feeling it likely relates to what happened during the Na'vi's attempt to permanently transfer her consciousness to her alien body. While the upload into the Tree of Souls appeared successful, the download to her body failed - so it's safe to assume she's now a part of Pandora's living "network".
As for the films themselves, Cameron recently announced that the scripts had been finalized and that production on all three would begin this October. Should all go as planned, we can expect "Avatar 2" to bow in December 2016.

Insider Trading: Reducing it
This content was COPIED from BrainMass.com - View the original, and get the already-completed solution here!
Give your opinion as to whether or not additional laws and harsher penalties on financial fraud can eliminate or mitigate financial fraud. Support the rationale.
Suggest three (3) new strategies that you believe the government can implement to eliminate or mitigate insider trading. Provide a rationale to support the suggestion.
In this case study, leaked merger and acquisition information was used to enable the fraud. Determine the key internal controls needed over the communication of confidential information to outside parties, and analyze the manner in which these controls act as a deterrent to fraudulent activities.
Pretend you are Donna Murdoch in this case study and propose an alternative plan to act on the leaked information. Next, recommend one (1) strategy to communicate the alternative plan and determine whom the plan should be communicated with. Justify the response.
In this case study, E&Y was providing a consulting service to The Blackstone Group related to its planned acquisition of Freescale Semiconductor. Compare and contrast the different auditor's professional responsibilities between consulting engagements and audit engagements.
Take a position on whether more legislative and/or regulatory agency oversight will increase or decrease corporate fraud. Provide a rationale to support the position.
Solution Preview
Additional laws and harsher penalties can eliminate crimes if the criminal feels that there is a direct relationship between punishment and crime. According to the deterrence theory of crime if there is certainty of punishment, additional laws and harsher penalties will reduce financial fraud or even mitigate it. Additional laws can make punishments more severe and harsher penalties can increase the intensity of punishments. These can be effective only if the enforcement of these laws is efficient and those who perpetrate financial fraud feel that they cannot escape detection if they commit a financial fraud.
First, a new strategy the government can implement to eliminate or mitigate insider trading is to establish a confidential helpline where a person can anonymously provide information relating insider trading to Securities Exchange Commission. Second, the broker firms are first to know when insider trading takes place. It should be made mandatory for broker firms to report insider trading. If they fail to provide information they should be suspended from trading. The broker firms should be given specific criteria to use to judge if insider trading has taken place. Third, cash awards should be instituted for correctly reporting insider trading operations.
In the case study Gansman leaked the information to Donna Murdoch relating to mergers and acquisitions. The key internal controls needed over the communication of confidential information to outside parties is that the company should have a code of ethics which specifically mentions that the company does not allow its partners to share information with any outsider. ...
Solution Summary
The answer to this problem explains how the law addresses insider trading. The references related to the answer are also included.

Text from "Sister Wendy's American Masterpieces":
"Apparently, there was a period when every college dormitory in the country had on its walls a poster of Hopper's Nighthawks; it had become an icon. It is easy to understand its appeal. This is not just an image of big-city loneliness, but of existential loneliness: the sense that we have (perhaps overwhelmingly in late adolescence) of being on our own in the human condition. When we look at that dark New York street, we would expect the fluorescent-lit cafe to be welcoming, but it is not. There is no way to enter it, no door. The extreme brightness means that the people inside are held, exposed and vulnerable. They hunch their shoulders defensively. Hopper did not actually observe them, because he used himself as a model for both the seated men, as if he perceived men in this situation as clones. He modeled the woman, as he did all of his female characters, on his wife Jo. He was a difficult man, and Jo was far more emotionally involved with him than he with her; one of her methods of keeping him with her was to insist that only she would be his model.
"From Jo's diaries we learn that Hopper described this work as a painting of "three characters." The man behind the counter, though imprisoned in the triangle, is in fact free. He has a job, a home, he can come and go; he can look at the customers with a half-smile. It is the customers who are the nighthawks. Nighthawks are predators - but are the men there to prey on the woman, or has she come in to prey on the men? To my mind, the man and woman are a couple, as the position of their hands suggests, but they are a couple so lost in misery that they cannot communicate; they have nothing to give each other. I see the nighthawks of the picture not so much as birds of prey, but simply as birds: great winged creatures that should be free in the sky, but instead are shut in, dazed and miserable, with their heads constantly banging against the glass of the world's callousness. In his Last Poems, A. E. Housman (1859-1936) speaks of being "a stranger and afraid/In a world I never made." That was what Hopper felt - and what he conveys so bitterly."

§ 9. The Spiritual Condition of the Suffering Souls.
30. There is a middle state—a state of purification —after this life: this is a natural claim of the human heart's affection, acknowledged unanimously by all nations, but of which we receive certainty and a complete and correct conception only by revealed religion. The souls of those who died in the state of grace, but were not found sufficiently pure to enter the heavenly Jerusalem, are sentenced to .this state. The most dreaded time for man, dreaded even by saintly servants of God, is the hour of death, that decisive hour on which depends heaven or hell. At this dangerous hour our guardian angels are a most potent help for us. These spirits, endowed with supernatural intelligence and privileges, servants of God and protectors of man, assist and encourage us. They put to flight the evil spirits, and are the first to receive the parting soul and conduct it to God. Therefore the Church in her recommendation of a departing soul says, "Go forth, Christian soul, from this* world, in the name of the angels and archangels.'' The holy angels are invited to receive the departing soul and to conduct it before the throne of God. This is also expressed in the prayer of the Church: "Let St. Michael, the archangel, prince of heavenly hosts, receive him. Let the holy angels of God come forth to meet him and conduct him to the city of the heavenly Jerusalem." After the soul has appeared before the tribunal of God, sentence is passed, and then it goes to the abode decreed by divine justice. St. Thomas Aquinas and St. Bonaventure say that it is probable that the souls sentenced to temporal punishment are conducted to the place of punishment by good angels, and there begin a new and abstergent life. We add, in a few general sentences, a description of this spiritual life of the souls in Purgatory, as well as it can be given.
31. The prerogatives and dignity of man in this world are founded in his spiritual being, in his immortal soul. By this his ennobled, rational arid free nature man is endowed with the faculty of thought, of judgment, of liberty and will. Is it, then, not apparent at first view, that amongst all beings of visible creation man predominates and is the most prominent, that everything else is created for his service? All things must bow before man's power, because reason elevates him above the whole material world, if he knows how to bring it under his dominion. The soul's power of cognition at the time of its departure from the body remains its property also in Purgatory, but a new degree of cognition is, generally speaking, not added, for the aspect of visible creation with its manifold wonders is shut off from it." The soul is in prison, under punishment. The learned Bautz writes : "With St. Augustine theological writers are of the opinion, that the Suffering Souls have cognisance of many things that specially interest them. As the holy doctor remarks, the souls of the deceased are beyond the reach of earthly influences, and as a rule remain so, although their affection for us is not diminished. Whatever of mundane affairs interests them can be brought to their notice in various ways. They are informed of it partly by other souls who depart this life at a later period, partly through the intervention of angels, partly by special divine revelation, partly also by being permitted to re-appear among us." The natural perceptive powers of a soul are, therefore, as a rule restricted to its place of captivity. It has a direct cognition of itself, and of the other spirits into whose company it was transferred. According to Bautz the soul, at its separation from the body, is endowed with all the faculties corresponding to its new phase of existence, and is thus enabled to communicate with the other souls and with the heavenly spirits that appear in the abode of torment.
32. Even during mortal life the soul of man is capable of elevating itself into the realm of the supernatural; it is impressed with ideas imperceptible to the bodily senses so as even to entertain a conception of the infinite. Instructed by revelation, it becomes enthusiastic in the service of the true, the « beautiful, the good, and the divine ; it finds a pleasure in Christian virtue in comparison with which all other enjoyments become insipid. The souls in Purgatory retain possession of this supernatural cognition. It is not an intuition, Uut essentially a species of faith that has become part of their existence. Some points of doctrine which are articles of faith in the Church militant are such no longer for the Church suffering, because to the latter they have become matters of cognition, intuition or experience. Particular judgment, Purgatory, the guardian angels, perhaps also satan and hell, are part of their experience. Other mysteries of faith, however, are veiled to the Suffering Souls the same as to us.
The Creator endowed human nature with such glorious prerogatives and revealed His paternal Providence to man so manifestly, that he will be the most blessed creature for all eternity, provided he attains his final destiny. The Suffering Souls in Purgatory have as yet not attained it, hence they yearn for it, full of hope and confidence. They feel the pangs of an insatiable hunger and thirst, and are consumed by a longing for essential life, beauty and truth, for imperishable greatness, for eternal happiness and glory in God. Like faith and hope, the Suffering Souls also possess charity. As Suarez remarks, the Suffering Soul, though not yet enjoying the contemplation of God, is nevertheless possessed of a fixed measure of infused divine love, corresponding to its merit, which latter can longer be increased.
33. The course of this life once finished, the time of forbearance, mercy and merit is over. Then God is no longer our Father, but our Judge, our severe Judge, who sentences us to pay the last farthing. Personally, the Suffering Souls cannot do anything to escape their wretchedness and misery. For them the time of labor, when they were able not only to increase their merit, but also to atone for their sins, is over. The darkness of that night has overtaken them, "when no man can work " (John ix. 4.) for his own profit. To them are applicable the words of Scripture: "If the tree fall to the south or to the north, in what place soever it shall fall, there it shall be. ,, (Eccli. xi. 3.) The soul's eternal destiny is not only decided, but it moreover can no longer use the time during which it is debarred from entering eternal glory to increase its own merits. The Suffering Souls no longer have time to do penance for their sins, or to increase their merit, or to pray to God for their own deliverance, or to hasten their admittance to eternal bliss. Theirs is a time of suffering, of suffering without merit, of suffering without the possibility of relieving themselves.
Just as the time of merit is over for the Suffering Souls, so also is their time of combat past. They are forever exempt from probation, temptation, and since the possibility of committing sin all who die united in charity with God have finished their course, fought the good fight and ended their pilgrimage. With St. John Damascene the holy Fathers and ecclesiastical writers say, " Death is for man what the fall was for the angels."
34. The doctrine, that the Suffering Souls can do nothing for their own relief, is certain in that sense, that they cannot acquire new merit to be applied in atonement for their sins. They cannot themselves do anything to render satisfaction to God. If these holy Souls, remarks Suarez, could obtain their release by some act of satisfaction, they would liberate themselves in a very short time simply by making an act of perfect contrition. Nevertheless, this same author concedes that they can .move God by their prayer to apply to them the intercession of the faithful on earth; that they can invoke their angels for some refreshment and mitigation of their torments; and lastly that they can entreat these heavenly spirits to incite the faithful to a greater zeal in the performance of good works in their behalf, which office these good spirits fulfil most readily and of their own accord. Bellarmine calls this opinion of Suarez not only probable, but indubitable, and argues that the Suffering Souls pray for themselves in the manner described. Gregory of Valencia, adducing the authority of the renowned Alexander of Hales, is still more positive. "I maintain,he says, "that the souls in Purgatory pray for themselves and implore God to deliver them from their torments by some means ordained by His eternal Providence, perhaps by the intercession of the faithful on earth. This is the doctrine of Alexander of Hales, who relies on the authority of Pope Gregory the Great. For if, as the latter says, the souls in Purgatory invoke the aid of the faithful, they also, presumably, implore God to impel the faithful to come to their assistance."
35. If the Suffering Souls can pray successfully for themselves; if, as we shall show later, they can intercede and obtain favors for us, as is maintained by Suarez and St. Catherine of Genoa: then it is probable that they also console and succor each other to the full extent of their charity, as far as they are permitted to do so by God. Or does it seem improbable that, impelled by an unselfish and sublime charity, they voluntarily renounce the suffrages of their relatives and friends in favor of others, thus suffering one for the other? True charity is forgetful of self, as St. Paul remarks; and this same apostle is himself an example of this charity. Like Moses he desired to become a reprobate,' if he might thereby save his brethren. Tertullian relates the same also of the early Christians. To save their brethren they exposed themselves to every danger, they suffered stripes, fire and death. If charity achieved such triumphs on earth, may we not expect the same, and more, of the charity of these just and holy souls ? Their charity is undoubtedly pure and unselfish; they love God in His creatures. The holy angels watch over us, not for the sake of adding to their merit, but for the love of God. God's own love for us is an unselfish one, proceeding from His pure; superabundant and infinite charity for us. "Indeed," says Binet, "suffering for the welfare of another is an act worthy of those magnanimous and charitable souls who are less sensitive of the purifying flames than of the fire of divine love." And Bautz concludes: "Whether such a mutual devotedness is actually permitted by the order of divine Providence in Purgatory, and to what extent, is beyond our knowledge." Certain it is, that by their own act the Suffering Souls cannot help themselves, nor assist others: we must aid them by our good works.
36. Confirmed in the grace and love of God, the souls in Purgatory are the adopted children of our heavenly Father, infinitely surer of this adoption than the most pious and saintly souls during earthly life. Though their conscience inform the latter, that they are " if sons, heirs also, heirs indeed of God, and joint heirs with Christ" (Rom. viii. 17.), they are nevertheless not sure to remain such, because they are in danger every moment of losing the grace of God by sin, and of becoming children of damnation. But a soul in Purgatory, "being out of this danger, has no longer any cause for fear. It is assured of remaining an elect child of God forever, and certain to possess the heritage of heaven. Though such an elect spouse of Christ is detained in the most terrible torments, and is not permitted to hasten to the wedding-feast, because admission thereto must be purchased by the satisfaction due to the sanctity and justice of God, she nevertheless dwells in the realms of peace, resting in Christ Our Lord, as the Church testifies in the commemoration of the dead in Holy Mass. The soul, though suffering grievously, suffers with such resignation and conformity to the will of God, that it experiences neither confusion nor terror. It is strong in patience; pain does not deaden its love of God, and therefore does not disturb its peace, which is firmly established in the hope of future glory.

Gill N.S. Gill is a freelance classics and ancient history writer. She has a master's degree in linguistics and is a former Latin teacher. Updated March 08, 2017 Definition: War Gods | Roman Gods > MarsMars (Mavors or Mamers) is an old Italian fertility god who came to be known as Gradivus, the strider, and the god of war. Although usually taken to be the equivalent of the Greek war god Ares, Mars was well-liked and honored by the Romans, unlike Ares vis à vis the ancient Greeks.Mars sired Romulus and Remus, making the Romans his children. He was usually called the son of Juno and Jupiter, just as Ares was taken to be the son of Hera and Zeus. The Romans named an area beyond the walls of their city for Mars, the Campus Martius 'Field of Mars'. Within the city of Rome were temples honoring the god. Throwing open the gates of his temple symbolized war.On 1 March (the month named for Mars), Romans honored both Mars and the New Year with special rites (feriae Martis). This was the beginning of the Roman year from the period of kings through most of the Roman Republic. Other festivals to honor Mars were the second* Equirria (14 March), agonium Martiale (17 March), Quinquatrus (19 March), and Tubilustrium (23 March). These March festivals were probably all connected in some way with the campaign season.The special priest of Mars was the flamen Martialis. There were special flamines (the plural of flamen) for Jupiter and Quirinus, as well. Special priest-dancers, known as salii, performed war-dances in honor of the gods on the 1,9, and 23 of March. In October, the Armilustrum on 19th and the Equus on the Ides appear to have honored war (the end of the campaign season) and Mars, as well. [Source: Herbert Jennings Rose, John Scheid "Mars" The Oxford Companion to Classical Civilization. Ed. Simon Hornblower and Antony Spawforth. Oxford University Press, 1998.] The symbols of Mars are the wolf, woodpecker, and lance. Iron is his metal. Certain personifications or goddesses accompanied him. These included a personification of war, Bellona, Discord, Fear, Dread, Panic, and Virtue, among others.Also, see:PictureQuirinusAresWar GodsGoddesses of WarTable of Greek and Roman Gods*Ovid calls it the second, but in the old Roman calendar it would have been the first.

Center for Korean Language & Literature
Building #1, Room 414 | Tel. +82-2-880-6284
Center for Korean Language and Literature
The Center for Korean Language and Literature was founded to stimulate research related to Korean language and literature within SNU and to enhance academic exchange among fields of study related to the humanities, thereby supporting academic research and, further on, greater progress in humanities. The center conducts research in the areas of Korean linguistics, classical and modern Korean literature, and Korean literature in Chinese, but, more than that, it seeks to promote the joint research of Korean language and literature, the culture industry, writing, cutting-edge data-processing technology, and other applied fields. Currently, the center is in the early stages of carrying out the research necessary for designing diverse cultural projects based on the field of Korean language and literature. This research activity stems from the understanding that the success of research does not rely solely on Korean language and literature, but that fields such as general linguistics, literature, and philosophy must be actively embraced. In addition, the center has been responding to the increasing attention paid to the Korean language and Korean literature by foreign scholars by supporting animated exchange, interaction, and cooperation between scholars from Korea and abroad. Specifically, the center has organized and hosted small-scale international academic conferences (symposiums and seminars), and promoted transnational academic cooperation in the development of Korean textbooks and research projects. Much consideration has been given to providing young researchers from abroad with the necessary support they need to develop into skilled Korean language and literature scholars.

During a White House visit last week, Sherman and teammates Russell Wilson and Earl Thomas filmed a video for First Lady Michelle Obama's campaign to improve school lunches and fight childhood obesity. Spoofing his infamous "I'm the best corner in the game" rant, a natty Sherman sliced peppers, tweezed garnishes, and informed "sideline reporter" Obama that he and his crew are the best chefs in the game. "Take me through your final plate, Richard," Obama urged. Sherman showed off a dish of salmon cakes, corn and succotash, saying with a more serious bent that "whether you're a pro athlete or just a kid at school wanting a healthy meal, you've got to put the right fuel in your body in order to perform at your best." We won't spoil the joke at the end; watch below for the full video. Comments | Topics: Let's Move, Michelle Obama, Richard Sherman

The French Revolution which began in 1789 unleashed a torrent of terror and destruction which swept everything before it, eventually even consuming some of its creators. It was inevitable that the Crown Jewels would suffer and in 1793, in the midst of the general chaos engulfing Paris the jewels were stolen from the Garde Meuble, or State Treasury, whence the jewels had been taken to for safekeeping.
It was to be the one of the great heists of history. The thieves made off with most of the Coronation regalia and these were never seen again- from a historical viewpoint this was an almost incalculable loss, as these included the medieval sceptre of Charles V, the ivory topped Hand of Justice and the crown of Charlemagne itself. Also lost were some of the great pieces of gold and silversmithing of the medieval age: chalices, orbs and assorted relics, most of which were probably melted down for their metal value. The thieves also managed to get away with some of the great stones collected by the French kings through the ages: the Cote de Bretagne spinel, the 67 carat French Blue diamond, the 140 carat Regent diamond, the 55 carat Sancy diamond and the 20 carat pink Hortense diamond. Some of these stones were recovered a year later, some went on to live colourful histories- but the cultural damage had been done.
Some of the Bourbon's personal jewellery had already been smuggled out of France in 1791 ahead of the Royal Family's ill-fated attempt to escape the country. Some pieces were entrusted to Lady Sutherland, wife of the British Ambassador as her bags would not be checked due to diplomatic immunity. The rest were sent on to Belgium with M. Leonard, Marie Antoinette's effeminate, highly strung hairdresser, who was to meet up with the Queen in Brussels. When the Queen failed to appear, M. Leonard entrusted the jewel casket to an army officer, the contents of which were to appear individually all over Europe in the coming decades.
As his power and Imperial aspirations grew in the aftermath of the Revolution, Napoleon not only tried to reverse the damage but sought to increase the magnificence of the French Crown Jewels. An inventory taken in 1791 showed that the jewels comprised of just under 10,000 stones- by 1814 the collection had swollen to 65,000 stones. Napoleon understood better than anyone the power of imagery and created for himself and Josephine splendid new regalia which was a marvellous mixture of his vision of Roman power coupled with medieval insignia designed to give him monarchic legitimacy. A casual look at his Coronation picture by David gives a good insight to some of the jewellery masterpieces he commissioned, not just himself but his family. The Hortense pink diamond, for example, derives its name from Hortense de Beauharnais, Napoleon's stepdaughter and for a time Queen of Holland.
Napoleon's contribution to the State jewellery box was significant not only in quantity but in quality. His preferred jeweller was Marie-Etienne Nitot, forebear of what was to become the house of Chaumet. He created a profusion of parures in fine gemstones of the first quality, some supplied by him and others by the Imperial treasury. Nitot's style was one of graceful, timeless elegance, inspired by but not enslaved to the motifs of neoclassicism. Napoleon's requirement for jewellery was increased by the need to please two empresses; after divorcing Josephine in 1810, more jewels were commissioned to befit the status of his new wife, the Archduchess Marie Louise of Austria, daughter of the Emperor and Marie Antoinette's niece. After the definitive fall of Napoleon in 1815, some of these pieces passed into some of the reigning families of Europe whose members had married into the Bonaparte and Beauharnais families. Marie Louise rather gracelessly took her jewellery with her, rather than leave it behind as property of the State.
With the Bourbon restoration, much of Napoleon's jewellery was altered but it was also added to- the Bourbons wanted to create shape the Restoration to their own image (the coronation crowns of Napoleon and his wives did not survive- these were destroyed by Louis XVIII). The Bourbons dispensed with Nitot, preferring to use the services of Bapst et Fils. This jewellery dynasty had married into the Meniere family, who owned Boehmer et Bassange and had been Marie Antoinette's personal jewellers. The Duchesse d'Angoulême
(Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette's only surviving child), married to the heir to the throne, needed pieces that were not associated with the Bonaparte regime. Her father-in-law, the reactionary Charles X (Louis XVI's brother), would also commissioned extensively. He yearned for a return of the Ancien Regime, its pomp and privileges. His coronation was a reflection of that desire and the defining jewel was the magnificent diamond crown he created for himself, topped with a diamond fleur-de-lys set with the Sancy, in the style of the crown of his great-grandfather Louis XV. Much of the ancient regalia lost during the Revolution was painstakingly re-created or restored for this sacre, which was to be the very last in France's history.

The sun has got its hat on!……. Makes a change from yesterday's grey and wet weather.
I had a very broken night and consequentially Jan had the same. The problem was a result of using muscles I didn't know I had. My neck, shoulders and thighs ache after cutting back the spray foam under the gunwale. It's an age thing! If I lay on the floor and looked up under the gunwale it was too far away for my glasses to keep everything in focus. Sitting aggravated my back. In the end the only successful position was to alternate between kneeling or squatting and simultaneously look under the gunwale by turning my head to the right and looking up. By stretching my neck forward and peering under my armpit I could see the underside of the gunwale. Then I need to brace myself with one hand whilst holding the portable oscillating saw in the other. After cutting back 8-12" I'd have to "duck-walk" or shuffle along to the next section. Four hours later the task was complete!
Oh to have the body of a teenager!
Despite me getting under his feet Richard managed to fit the bulk lining below the gunwale today.
Completed back to the beginning of the swim
Finished to the bow
He is taking great care to ensure all the sheets are level and well secured to the battens. Where the sheets meet he is rebating one inch off the ends of each sheet so they will overlap. A 2mm expansion gap is left in the join which is then fixed to the batten with screws through both sheets. By carefully measuring he has been able to only have one visible join in the sheets throughout the boat. All the other joins are hidden by partitions or cabinets.
In the bedroom I have stolen an extra two inches by removing the timber battens from the steel.
The bedroom wall lining is set back an inch from the remainder of the lining
The lining in the bedroom is now screwed directly to the steel. The off-set joint is located at the point where the bedroom and bathroom partition will be installed.
The cross-over bed is now two inches longer
I had considered removing all the timber battens below the gunwale and claiming back an additional two inches in width throughout the boat. However I couldn't face the thought of cutting back all the spray foam!
Tomorrow the lower lining will be completed and a start will be made on the upper. This will probably take longer as there are numerous holes to be cut for portholes, hatches, lights, etc.
