(Reuters) - Jordan booked a place in the 2015 AFC Asian Cup finals with a 3-1 win over 10-man Singapore in an ill-tempered Group A clash at Jalan Besar Stadium on Tuesday.
Needing a victory to qualify from the group alongside Oman, Thaer Bawab and Ahmad Hayel scored either side of halftime for the visitors.
Khairul Amri then converted a penalty for Singapore but substitute Yousef Ahmad netted in stoppage time to help Jordan go through with a game to spare.
Singapore defender Baihakki Khaizan was sent off at the end of the first half and Jordan captain and goal-scorer Hayel was also shown the red card in the 70th minute.
Jordan are two points behind group leaders Oman. Syria are third on four points while Singapore have three.
"When Singapore scored the penalty it put my players under a lot of stress," coach Hossam Hassan told the Asian Football Confederation website (www.the-afc.com).
"But we kept our composure to score again and achieved what we wanted to do, qualify for the finals."
Twelve nations had already qualified for the 16-team finals - hosts Australia, holders Japan, North Korea, South Korea, Bahrain, Iran, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Oman and Uzbekistan.
The draw will be made in Sydney on March 26.

I have had this sound all the time on my car... is this normal? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sUewrCFMVg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DeATxmtezek If you have no stereo on it is pretty easy to hear... actually sounds like a badly hooked up stereo, where the cables pickup noise.
its the exhaust making the noise, happens with a lot of TDI's especially when remapped and have a diferent exhaust
Sounds like a supercharger to me. Now is it normal for it to whine (spool) when idle? I thought it only did that when it was inbetween a certain rev range e.g. 2k-3.5k
Got myself a cable and VAG-COM shareware and read this from the fault codes under Engine: Wednesday, 03 October 2007, 18:19:53 VAG-COM Version: Release 409.1-US Control Module Part Number: 03G 906 016 G Component and/or Version: R4 2,0L EDC 0000SG 5705 Software Coding: 0000072 Work Shop Code: WSC 00066 1 Fault Found: 16618 - Boost Pressure Regulation: Limit Exceeded (Overboost Condition) P0234 - 000 - - --------------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm going to have it serviced in 2 weeks, and they have noted the sound and will try to find the leak. But could a leak cause an overboost? The limp mode is setting in quite often now, and the whistling sound is very clear.
Found this at http://wiki.ross-tech.com/index.php/16618/P0234/000564 16618/P0234/000564 - Boost Pressure Regulation: Limit Exceeded (Overboost Condition) Possible Symptoms Boost pressure too high Reduced power output Possible Causes Hoses incorrect connected, disconnected, blocked or leaking Malfunction N75 Possible Solutions Check charge pressure control Check Solenoid Valve for Boost Pressure Control (N75)
It does not sound fine, it is way to high compared to when i bought the car. Sound has increased in the past month, so probably a leaky hose... If only i could find some info on where the hoses are
Did you get the car with the exhaust on? The turbo will spool right from the off, cant think what hose would make it sound louder
Lots of info here... http://forums.tdiclub.com/showthread.php?t=179589 " The current state of the problem is this: The car whistles when you accelerate. I got under it just a bit ago, and it really sounds like it's coming from inside the catalytic converter. The catalytic converter looks like it is the original one that came on the car. It's pretty rusted and has a big dent on it. So, could a clogged CC be my prob?" "Yes, a clogged cat could cause it..."
I doubt it, that wont make the Turbo whistle louder unless the cc breaking down reducing the baffling effect? unless its blowing in that area
If its a overboost problem then it could the one of the following: Faulty Boost Solenoid Faulty Wastegate - if fitted Faulty Dump Valve Faulty Diverter Valve Kinked Boost Pipe or Boost Vacuum Pipe
ok sorry, i missed that. so as said it could be a leak to the wastegate actuator or at the boost solenoid. I doubt it would overboost due to the DV. try and see if you can trace the vacuum pipes there should be 1 off the turbo outlet and 1 to the wastegate actuator they should lead to the boost soelnoid, I had one split (on my Subaru) which was causing overboost.
The more wear/pitting on the leading edge of the compressor blades, the louder a 'whistle' you will get. This often happens after running a 'performance' filter for an extended time, they generally let through larger particles.
Well the service has been done, and as i guessed: "The sound is coming from the Turbo" They checked for leaks in the hoses, but found nothing and checked the boost pressure which was fine. They said a new turbo was needed to fix the overboost problem, which would cost 18000 NOK (1500 squid). I told em to stick it
I recorded the sound today Part 1 is where you can hear the sound i get over 3500 revs. Part 2 you can hear the sound from start which is like a whistle / sirene. Part 3 is outside/under the car. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zOd6fXR6H4
Since my Upsolute remap, I've noticed a faint noise that rises with the revs. It sounds a bit like the alternator whine (except that its not from the radio/CD). If its the exhaust, is this something to be concerned about?
Sorry to bump an old thread, it was the first result on a google search for "audi a3 whistling turbo". About a month ago i got my turbo swopped out for a reconditioned one, due to it becoming a whistler. As soon as it was replaced, the whistling went away, but now a month later the whistling has slowly come back?? The mechanic at the garage who did the work for me did say that the original turbo they took out actually seemed fine, i.e. there was no play in the main bearing screw. Im going to ring them today and see what they say, but im wondering if it could be anything alse thats causing the problem? or am i just unluckly that the reconditioned turbo wasnt very good.

China HSBC April services PMI falls to lowest in nearly two years
BEIJING (Reuters) - Growth in China's services sector slowed sharply in April to its lowest point since August 2011, a private sector survey showed on Monday, in fresh evidence that economic revival will remain modest and may be facing wider risks.
The HSBC services Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) fell to 51.1 in April from 54.3 in March, with new order expansion the slowest in 20 months and staffing levels in the service sector decreasing for the first time since January 2009.
The HSBC services PMI follows a similar survey by China's National Bureau of Statistics, which found non-manufacturing activity eased to 54.5.
"The cooling of service sector activity in April likely reflected the knock-on effect of slower manufacturing growth, the impact of property tightening measures and the spreading bird flu," said HSBC's China chief economist Qu Hongbin.
A reading above 50 indicates activity in the sector is accelerating, while one below 50 indicates it is slowing.
Two separate PMIs last week showed that China's manufacturing sector growth had slowed, suggesting the country's exports engine is running into headwinds from the euro zone recession and sluggish growth in the United States.
In the latest survey, the sub-index measuring new business orders dropped sharply to a 20-month low of 51.5 in April, with only 15 percent of survey respondents reporting an increased volume of new orders that month, HSBC said.
"Again, this started to bite employment growth. All these are likely to add some risk to China's growth in 2Q, as there's still a bumpy road towards sustaining growth recovery," Qu said.
The employment sub-index decreased to 49.6 in April, the first net reduction in staff numbers since January 2009, although HSBC said job losses were marginal, partially caused by firms down-sizing and employee resignations.
Employment is a decisive factor shaping government thinking because it is crucial for social stability. The services sector accounted for 46 percent of China's gross domestic product in 2012, as big as the country's better-known manufacturing industry.
At the depth of the global financial crisis in 2008/2009, an estimated 20 million rural migrant workers lost their jobs, prompting Beijing to unveil a 4 trillion yuan stimulus package to shore up the economy and provide employment.
China's annual economic growth dipped to 7.4 percent in the third quarter, slowing for seven quarters in a row and leaving the economy on course for its weakest showing since 1999.
The government has set a 2013 growth target of 7.5 percent, a level Beijing deems sufficient for job creation while providing room to deliver reforms to the economy.

2014's fast food atrocities
Burger King's black cheeseburger: Made with squid ink and bamboo charcoal, arguably a symbol of meat's destructive effect on the planet. Only available in Japan.
Topics: National Book Awards, Literary Prizes, Fiction, Nonfiction, The Good Lord Bird, The Unwinding, Entertainment News
I was surprised to learn that James McBride's "The Good Lord Bird" was the "surprise" winner of the National Book Award for fiction last night. Then again, it's hard to begrudge working journalists a decent angle on the prize during any year in which neither Jonathan Franzen nor Philip Roth has published a book that can be "snubbed" by the panel. Nevertheless, it's interesting to learn that a novel can be characterized as "little-mentioned" even after it's made the cover of the New York Times Book Review.
"The Good Lord Bird" is in fact an ideal NBA winner in the best sense of the term: accessible, smart, ambitious and besotted with Americans' freewheeling use of our language. The novel is so entertaining, it's easy to miss the audacity of its premise: A comic picaresque narrated by a slave, when 1) slavery isn't funny and 2) the roving, carefree life of the typical picaresque hero is pretty much the antithesis of the slave's lot.
McBride makes it work by tossing his child narrator, Henry Shackleford (disguised as a girl throughout most of the novel) into the hands of Bible-thumping abolitionist John Brown, who despite his devotion to winning "her" freedom, is so caught up in his cause that he barely registers the individual identities and desires of the "negro slaves" he aims to rescue. Meanwhile, "Henrietta" complains that the meals in bondage were much better than the ones he gets living rough in the woods with Brown's militia, and spends the early chapters of the book trying to get back to his master.
Beneath its bawdy, vernacular humor and rowdy satire, "The Good Lord Bird" asks painful questions about how much most of us are willing to sacrifice to do what we know is right — Brown, the novel's only morally rigorous character, is viewed by the other characters, especially Henry, as crazy. And he is crazy, if only because everyone around him, including most of the people he feels called to liberate, have accommodated a social institution that is itself delusional. In the land of the mad, the sane man is an outlaw.
If the novel's comically adventuresome mode needles the high rhetoric and melodrama usually applied to this historical material, the legitimacy of Brown's position undermines the complacency in that strain of American humor that presents itself as "common sense." Some everyday realities simply should not be allowed to stand. These complexities make for a savory novel that does more than just emulate Mark Twain, its most evident influence; they bring the Twainian novel into the 21st century.
The NBA's nonfiction winner, George Packer's "The Unwinding," is similarly remarkable, a collection of profiles reflecting the social and economic history of American over the past 35 years that pointedly refrains from making sweeping polemical arguments about "what's gone wrong." The lives of a factory worker-turned-activist, a disillusioned lawyer, a Silicon Valley venture capitalist and a North Carolina tobacco farmer, among others, are allowed to speak for themselves. In a culture in which everyone is perpetually shrieking their political opinions, it's hard to convey just how refreshing this is. Hell, you might even learn something.
What's the place of the book in a world of digital communication? In these two choices, at least, the National Book Awards suggest that books are where grown-ups go when they want to use all of their minds and hearts.
Laura Miller is a senior writer for Salon. She is the author of "The Magician's Book: A Skeptic's Adventures in Narnia" and has a Web site, magiciansbook.com.
More Laura Miller.Burger King's black cheeseburger: Made with squid ink and bamboo charcoal, arguably a symbol of meat's destructive effect on the planet. Only available in Japan.
McDonald's Black Burger: Because the laws of competition say that once Burger King introduces a black cheeseburger, it's only a matter of time before McDonald's follows suit. You still don't have to eat it.
Domino's Specialty Chicken: It's like regular pizza, except instead of a crust, there's fried chicken. The company's marketing officer calls it "one of the most creative, innovative menu items we have ever had" -- brain power put to good use.
Arby's Meat Mountain: The viral off-menu product containing eight different types of meat that, on second read, was probably engineered by Arby's all along. Horrific, regardless.
KFC'S ZINGER DOUBLE DOWN KING: A sandwich made by adding a burger patty to the infamous chicken-instead-of-buns creation can only be described using all caps. NO BUN ALL MEAT. Only available in South Korea.
Taco Bell's Waffle Taco: It took two years for Taco Bell to develop this waffle folded in the shape of a taco, the stand-out star of its new breakfast menu.
Krispy Kreme Triple Cheeseburger: Only attendees at the San Diego County Fair were given the opportunity to taste the official version of this donut-hamburger-heart attack combo. The rest of America has reasonable odds of not dropping dead tomorrow.
Taco Bell's Quesarito: A burrito wrapped in a quesadilla inside an enigma. Quarantined to one store in Oklahoma City.
Boston Pizza's Pizza Cake: The people's choice winner of a Canadian pizza chain's contest whose real aim, we'd imagine, is to prove that there's no such thing as "too far." Currently in development.
7-Eleven's Doritos Loaded: "For something decadent and artificial by design," wrote one impassioned reviewer, "it only tasted of the latter."

The nether rocks burn forever. They never go out unless they are put out by a player.
That is there only use as far as I know.
How much stuff do you have in the chest? Rapture would most likely grab the box and everything inside, then teleport, and unload where ever you want.

netherrack is beyond useless, I was expected nine netherrack (since its common as hell, and has no process like the stone bricks do) = 1 brick. or something. But nope. Still only useful for lighting on fire
If the server has worldedit you can easily transfer chests by marking two spots then using the //cut and //paste commands.. I think I rape those two commands for chest/stone formation transplants far too much :lol (Though I'd recommend //copy over //cut, just incase you get lagged out or something. You'd just have to remark the area you copied and use //set 0 after you //paste)

I just had to get someone to remove their house as the roof was made of netherack just so they could light it on fire. Anywhere else on the map would've been fine but they had it right by the spawn. I don't want that to be the first thing people see when they join.

I had a quick blast this morning and ended up exploring the Nether with thedevlin. I don't know who did it but there's a tree growing in the Nether as well as a huge viaduct stretching across the ocean of lava. I'm impressed. Infact, I'm considering moving to the Nether. Some players have referred to me as an 'anti-God' so it seems fitting I live in Hell.

You're fine to build anywhere as long as you leave a reasonable space between your house and the property of someone else. The one thing I ask of you is to not go too mad when exploring, like don't go miles and miles off in one direction. This will cause a 'spider leg' effect and may increase strain on the server. It probably won't but it's best to stay safe. Other than that, go nuts.
I'm in the middle of scouting a plot of land for a little project I'll be working on. It will probably take some time owing to the fact I'm not on a lot but it would be interesting to see.

Five months after the release of Apple's (AAPL) iPhone 5S, rival Samsung Electronics is looking to shift attention to its latest flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S5, with a launch event on Monday.
Seoul-based Samsung is holding a product unveiling at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. It will be Samsung's chance to wow high-end consumers with its new top-of-the-line handset.
The Galaxy S5 reportedly sports a brand new design that makes it dustproof and waterproof. Plus, it is rumored to be the first with a bezel-free display.
Figure skaters Evan Bates and Madison Chock use Samsung Galaxy Note 3 smartphones as they walk with the U.S. Olympic team during the opening ceremony... View Enlarged Image
Like the iPhone 5S, the Galaxy S5 is said to include a fingerprint scanner for security. Synaptics (SYNA) reportedly is supplying the fingerprint-sensor technology for the Samsung phone.
The Galaxy S5 also could feature eye-scanning security technology, according to media reports.
It's likely to include a speedier processor, possibly a 64-bit chip to match the processor in Apple's iPhone 5S. Improvements to the main camera and battery life also have been speculated.
Another rumor has Samsung bumping up the display size to 5.2 inches from 5 inches and increasing the screen resolution. By comparison, Apple's iPhone 5 series of phones have a 4-inch display. Apple is rumored to be planning a bigger screen display for its iPhone 6, due out this fall.
The pressure is mounting on Samsung for the new phone to be a blockbuster because its current flagship model, the Galaxy S4, has had disappointing sales. Last month, Samsung reported its first quarterly profit decline in two years, largely because of a slowdown in its mobile phone business.
The Galaxy S5 won't be available for purchase until mid-March at the earliest, according to reports.
One question hanging over Samsung's new phone is how much the South Korean consumer electronics giant will modify Google 's (GOOG) Android operating system. Samsung and Google recently agreed to work together to avoid further fragmenting the Android ecosystem, Re/code reported.
It's also possible that Samsung will launch a new smartwatch at the event Monday. The Galaxy Gear 2 smartwatch would be the company's second generation device. The original Galaxy Gear launched on Sept. 25.

UNITED NATIONS - The UN Security Council plans to discuss in July the possibility of Palestine becoming a United Nations member state, the Security Council president said on Tuesday.The Arab League has said it would request UN membership for a Palestinian state in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, with east Jerusalem as its capital at the UN General Assembly in September.RELATED:Obama plans to visit, US envoy to Israel saysPA says it'll drop UN bid if Israel accepts 67 linesAn open debate on the Middle East has been scheduled for July 26 according to a provisional calendar for the Security Council for July."I think (that) will be an occasion to explore the various options that might exist on the Palestinian side," said German Ambassador Peter Wittig, UN Security Council president, in response to a question about when the issue would be debated. Germany holds the Security Council presidency in July.Wittig pointed to an upcoming Quartet meeting as a possible indicator on the situation.The Quartet is expected to meet on July 11. The meeting, expected to take place in Washington, will come amid a US push to revive peace negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians.

Unprepared U.S. officials missed Baghdadi's likely al Qaida connection during 2004 detention
July 10, 2014
Nancy Youssef
McClatchy Newspapers
When the U.S. military detained Abu Bakr al Baghdadi in Iraq in 2004, it was too inexperienced at dealing with suspected terrorists to know what kind of threat he potentially posed when it released him just 10 months later, those who worked in the military detention system at that time now concede.

Bush and Obama at West Point: Bookends of a Foreign Policy Era

Karen Tumulty
The Washington Post
Two presidents. One stage. A dozen years apart. One was speaking to the West Point graduating class that would be the first to go off to a kind of war this country had never fought before. In that June 1, 2002, commencement address, George W. Bush made the case that in the post 9/11 era, " If we wait for threats to fully materialize, we will have waited too long. ... Our security will require all Americans to be forward-looking and resolute, to be ready for preemptive action when necessary to defend our liberty and to defend our lives."

Use of Drones for Killings Risks a War Without End, Panel Concludes in Report
June 26, 2014
Mark Mazzetti
The New York Times
The Obama administration's embrace of targeted killings using armed drones risks putting the United States on a "slippery slope" into perpetual war and sets a dangerous precedent for lethal operations that other countries might adopt in the future, according to a report by a bipartisan panel that includes several former senior intelligence and military officials.

The ecoFLEX project, designed by a team from Shepley Bulfinch, has won a prestigious 2009 Unbuilt Architecture Design Award from the Boston Society of Architects.
The winning project was one of ten entries chosen from more than 90 submissions in the BSA's Unbuilt Architecture Design Awards program, which is open to architects from around the world. It was designed for the Tall Emblem Structure competition in Dubai earlier this year. Sited in an urban park, ecoFLEX is designed to accommodate sightseeing, dining, exhibit, and recreation spaces.
The Shepley Bulfinch design team of Angela Watson, Luke Voiland, Lauren Deck, and Allan Donnelly, joined by Paul Kassabian of Simpson Gumpertz & Heger, will be honoured in November at the BSA Jurors' Forum during the Build Boston, where the winning boards will be displayed. "Rather than creating a disconnect between interior and exterior environments inherent in conditioned spaces, the innovative design of ecoFLEX seeks to provide climate control while re-connecting people with the elements of Dubai's climate," according to BSA.
ecoFLEX features heat-sensitive assemblies composed of a series of bi-material strips. The assemblies' form modulate with the temperature to create varying levels of shading and wind shielding, flexing when heated to block sunlight and contracting when cooled to allow breezes to pass through the screen. The assembly's bi-material strip is manufactured in a curved shape, with one strip made from a material with a high expansion rate, such as steel, while the the second is one with a very low expansion rate, such as carbon fiber. While the form maintains this form in cool temperatures, the ratio of expansion rates creates movement that is temperature driven. Ambient temperature and direct sunlight heat the assembly, causing it to flatten out.

All propaganda is lies, even when one is telling the truth.
George pseudonym of Eric Arthur Blair OrwellWe had saved the world from Nazism and fascism. We were wealthy and we were safe. Many thought it was time we went home. But Americans like President Harry Truman and General George Marshall saw the truth: that it would require not only America's military might, but our ingenuity, our allies, and our generosity to rebuild Europe and keep it safe from tyrants who would prey on poverty and resentment. Our leaders resisted the imperial temptation to force our will by virtue of our unmatched strength. Instead, they built bonds of trust founded on restraint, the rule of law, and good faith. They were magnanimous out of strength, not weakness. [...] We saw the power of this relationship during the Cold War, when America deterred the Soviet Union from its quest for world domination. We saw it when we established the United Nations and NATO, which have done so much for peace and human rights. After the Cold War, we saw it in Bosnia, where we helped broker a lasting peace. And we saw it again in Kosovo, where we joined our NATO allies to stop a brutal war criminal from perpetrating another campaign of ethnic cleansing.
John Edwards, May 23, 2007 [38]This is a test. Take notes. This will count as 3/4 of your final grade. Hints: remember, in chess, kings cancel each other out and cannot occupy adjacent squares, are therefore all-powerful and totally powerless, cannot affect each other, produce stalemate. Hinduism is a polytheistic religion; the sect of Atman worships the divine spark of life within Man; in effect saying, "Thou art God." Provisos of equal time are not served by one viewpoint having media access to two hundred million people in prime time while opposing viewpoints are provided with a soapbox on the corner. Not everyone tells the truth. Operational note: these sections may be taken out of numerical sequence: rearrange to suit yourself for optimum clarity. Turn over your test papers and begin.
harlan ellisonReptiles and amphibians are sometimes seen as simple, primitive creatures. That's a long way from the truth. The fact that they are solar-powered means that their bodies require only 10% of the energy that mammals of a similar size require. At a time when we ourselves are becoming increasingly concerned about the way in which we get our energy from the environment and the wasteful way in which we use it, maybe there are things that we can learn from "life in cold blood."
david attenboroughTruth is a shining goddess, always veiled, always distant, never wholly approachable, but worthy of all the devotion of which the human spirit is capable.
bertrand russellI've had a lot of emails from people who seem to think that I hate Muslims, when nothing could be further from the truth - not even the official reason for the war in Iraq, which is about as far from the truth as Pluto is from the Sun. But this illustrates, I think, a quality that we have as human beings - we tend to read into a thing what we want to see there, rather than what's actually there, which is of course what makes the so-called "Holy" Scriptures so dangerous. Let me make this crystal clear: I have no problem with Islam - with the Islam where people just get on with their lives and pray everyday, and don't bother anybody else; nor do I have a problem with any religion that has the common decency to mind its own business. But that's not the Islam I'm talking about, and I think we all know this. I'm talking about the repressive, violent, intolerant Islam that considers human rights an insult to God. The Islam that wants homosexuals killed, along with adulterers and anybody else who thinks they're entitled to a private life. But I don't hate anyone, because hate is for losers. Hate is just fear with attitude. If you hate something, you're afraid of it, which makes you nothing but a big pussy, and whatever you hate and fear, you know you're going to attract it, because if you invest that much emotion in something, it's coming your way. The Islamic fundamentalist, he hates America. America is coming his way. Here in Britain, we hate intolerance. Guess what's coming our way.
pat condellThough I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing. Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away. When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known. And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
I Corinthians Ch. 13 (NKJV). (Pauline epistles)If we ought not to fear mortal truth, still less should we dread scientific truth. In the first place it can not conflict with ethics? But if science is feared, it is above all because it can give no happiness? Man, then, can not be happy through science buttoday he canmuch less be happy without it.
(Jules) Henri PoincareThat a lie which is all a lie may be met and fought with outright, But a lie which is part a truth is a harder matter to fight.
TennysonLord Jesus Christ, our foolish minds are weak; they are more than willing to be drawn-and there is so much that wants to draw us to itself. There is pleasure with its seductive power, the multiplicity with its bewildering distractions, the moment with its infatuating importance and the conceited laboriousness of busyness and the careless time-wasting of light-mindedness and the gloomy brooding of heavy-mindedness-all this will draw us away from ourselves to itself in order to deceive us. But you, who are truth, only you, our Savior and Redeemer, can truly draw to person to yourself, which you have promised to do-that you will draw all to yourself. Then may God grant that by repenting we may come to ourselves, so that you, according to your Word, can draw us to yourself-from on high, but through lowliness and abasement.
søren aabye kierkegaardI have a horror of tags and labels. I don't understand, for instance, how people can talk about Bergman's "symbolism".

nathalia craneAt the risk of seeming ridiculous, let me say that the true revolutionary is guided by a great feeling of love. It is impossible to think of a genuine revolutionary lacking this quality. Perhaps it is one of the great dramas of the leader that he or she must combine a passionate spirit with a cold intelligence and make painful decisions without flinching. Our vanguard revolutionaries must idealize this love of the people, of the most sacred causes, and make it one and indivisible. They cannot descend, with small doses of daily affection, to the level where ordinary people put their love into practice.The leaders of the revolution have children just beginning to talk, who are not learning to call their fathers by name; wives, from whom they have to be separated as part of the general sacrifice of their lives to bring the revolution to its fulfilment; the circle of their friends is limited strictly to the number of fellow revolutionists. There is no life outside of the revolution.In these circumstances one must have a great deal of humanity and a strong sense of justice and truth in order not to fall into extreme dogmatism and cold scholasticism, into isolation from the masses. We must strive every day so that this love of living humanity will be transformed into actual deeds, into acts that serve as examples, as a moving force.
ernesto 'che' guevaraWe do not know the truth. But sometimes we get a glimpse of the shadow of the truth. And where there is a shadow, somewhere there must be light.
Quoted in The Irish Astronomical Journal, Volume 12. Irish Astronomical Society. 1975. p. 150.People often say to me, You don't know what a wife and mother feels. No, I say, I don't and I'm very glad I don't. And they don't know what I feel. ... I am sick with indignation at what wives and mothers will do of the most egregious selfishness. And people call it all maternal or conjugal affection, and think it pretty to say so. No, no, let each person tell the truth from his own experience.
Florence NightingaleWhen truth and reason cannot be heard, then must presumption rule .
Barbara Tuchman, quoting Admiral Jean de Vienne, A Distant Mirror (1978), p. 559.There is no inevitable connection between Christianity and cynicism. Truth is not a salad, is it, that you must always dress it with vinegar?
william morley punshonTruly we are passing through disastrous times, when we may well make our own the lamentation of the Prophet: "There is no truth, and there is no mercy, and there is no knowledge of God in the land" (Hosea 4:1). Yet in the midst of this tide of evil, the Virgin Most Merciful rises before our eyes like a rainbow, as the arbiter of peace between God and man.
pope pius xI am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
14:6.Doubt thou the stars are fire. Doubt that the sun doth move. Doubt truth to be a liar. But never doubt my love.
Act II, Scene 2, line ??.It is the study of the Chemists to liberate that unsensual truth from its fetters in things of sense, for through it the heavenly powers are persued with subtle understanding....Knowledge is the sure and undoubted resolution by experiment of all opinions concerning the truth....Experiment is manifest demonstration of the truth, and resolution the putting away of doubt. We cannot be resolved of any doubt save by experiment, and therefore is no better way to make it than on ourselves. Let us therefore verify what we have said above concerning the truth, beginning with ourselves. We have said that piety consists in knowledge of ourselves, and hence it is said that we make philosophical knowledge begin from this also. But no man can know himself unless he know what and not who he is, on whom he depends and whose he is (for by the law of truth no one belongs to himself, and to what end he was made. With this knowledge piety begins, which is concerned with two things, namely, with the Creator and the creature that is made like unto him. For it is impossible for the creature to know himself of himself, unless he first know his Creator....No one can better know the Creator, than the workman is known by his work.

My Twenty-One Years in the Fiji Islands (English translation by J.D. Kelly & U.K. Singh, Fiji Museum, 1991)Any concepts or words which have been formed in the past through the interplay between the world and ourselves are not really sharply defined with respect to their meaning : that is to say, we do not know exactly how far they will help us in finding our way in the world. We often know that they can be applied to a wide range of inner or outer experience, but we practically never know precisely the limits of their applicability. This is true even of the simplest and most general concepts like "existence" and " space and time ". Therefore, it will never be possible by pure reason to arrive at some absolute truth . The concepts may, however, be sharply defined with regard to their connections... a group of connected concepts may be applicable to a wide field of experience and will help us to find our way in this field. But the limits of the applicability will in general not be known, at least not completely...

My family are still very Christian. I am in no way disrespecting them when I say this: it was overbearing. I believed I was touched by Jesus, and I prayed all the time. I was still very Christian when I left the Marines. I would tell everyone about Jesus — it was almost evangelical. I thought all the good things in my life were because of my faith.When I came back from expeditions, I had some experiences that made me readdress all that. I'd pretty much known all along that Christianity wasn't for me. Ever since then, I've been on my own quest to find another truth. I can't read novels, but I do read books about cosmology, about astrophysics, about genetics. I'm interested in altered states of mind, and creation myths. It's all part of the same thing — I want to know why we think what we think. Now, I'd describe myself as pan-deist, reluctantly verging on atheist.

PHOENIX, AZ -- (Marketwired) -- 01/06/14 -- For the fortunate few, the holidays are a time to exchange gifts, reconnect with family and be merry. For too many others, however, the season throws into sharp relief their struggles. Case in point is one Phoenix family in which the father lost his full-time job, the mother was diagnosed with stomach cancer and the three children were left thinking more about survival than Santa. While some of these problems were beyond any one person's ability to solve, plenty of them were handled with compassion and competence by six managers at the Residence Inn Phoenix. And their example is one that many other groups and organizations can follow any time of year.
Working through The Salvation Army's Adopt-A-Family program, this hotel in North Phoenix, Arizona was able to help the family forget its troubles during the Christmas holiday by gifting each member with clothes, shoes, jackets, toiletries and other essentials, as well as toys for the children who are just 7, 5 and 4 years old.
The Adopt-a-Family program runs during the holidays, but it is exemplary of the kinds of opportunities available all year round to individuals, groups, families and companies who want to help those in need. From corporate sponsorship of programs, to volunteer opportunities, the Salvation Army affords countless chances for everyone to get involved in his/her community.
As a North Phoenix business hotel, the Residence Inn Phoenix is accustomed to extending a warm welcome to its guests. Such attention to detail is what has made this property one of the most inviting extended-stay hotels in Phoenix, Arizona, and it directly benefitted the managers' adopted family as well, since the staff was careful to account for each family member's needs. Living off a fixed income of less than $950 per month, the family struggles to get by with just one car that is often broken. The mother, meanwhile, is not receiving treatment for her cancer because she lacks insurance, but she will walk her children three miles to school to make sure they attend every day. Recognizing that such a family deserved a memorable Christmas, the hotel staff saw to it that everything down to the wrapping paper was accounted for.
While the holiday season is on its way out, the commitment of the participating managers shows no signs of diminishing. The staff's experience with the program was so rewarding that not only do they encourage other organizations to participate in this program and others like it, but they also intend to follow their adopted family throughout the year to donate gently used clothing and toys and other necessary items that can help the family get back on its feet. Such dedication inspires other people and companies to do what they can to help, no matter what time of year it may be.

After Dog is Left in Hot Car, PETA Offers Tips for Safeguarding Animals During Hot Weather
Group Warns Against Leaving Animal Companions in Vehicles
September 4, 2014
Lauren Rutkowski 202-483-7382
Monroe, N.Y. – PETA receives reports every year about animals who experience horrifying deaths after being left in hot cars during the spring and summer months. Just this weekend, a man in Monroe was arrested for allegedly leaving his dog in a hot car for 45 minutes while he went shopping.
On a 78-degree day, the temperature inside a parked car can soar to between 100 and 120 degrees in just minutes, and on a 90-degree day, interior temperatures can reach as high as 160 degrees in less than 10 minutes. If you see a dog showing any symptoms of heatstroke—including restlessness, heavy panting, vomiting, lethargy, and lack of appetite or coordination—get the animal into the shade immediately. You can lower a symptomatic dog's body temperature by providing the dog with water, applying a cold towel to the animal's head and chest, or immersing the dog in tepid (not ice-cold) water. Then immediately call a veterinarian.
PETA makes the following suggestions for safeguarding animals:
- Keep dogs indoors: Unlike humans, dogs can only sweat through their footpads and cool themselves by panting. Soaring temperatures can cause heat stress, injury, or death.
- Provide water and shade: If animals must be left outside, they should be supplied with ample water and shade, and the shifting sun needs to be taken into account. Even brief periods of direct exposure to the sun can have life-threatening consequences.
- Walk—don't run: In very hot, humid weather, never exercise dogs by cycling while they try to keep up or by running them while you jog. Dogs will collapse before giving up, at which point, it may be too late to save them.
- Avoid hot cars: Never leave an animal in a parked car in warm weather, even for short periods with the windows slightly open. Dogs trapped inside parked cars can succumb to heatstroke within minutes—even if a car isn't parked in direct sunlight.
- Never transport animals in the bed of a pickup truck: This practice is dangerous—and illegal in many cities and states—because animals can catapult out of a truck bed on a sudden stop or choke if they jump out while they're tied up.
- Stay alert and save a life:Keep an eye on all outdoor animals. Make sure that they have adequate water and shelter. If you see an animal in distress, provide him or her with water for immediate relief and then contact humane authorities right away.

Xcel hopes state's efforts to cut carbon get credit under Obama plan
- Cathy Proctor
- Reporter- Denver Business Journal
- Email | Facebook | Twitter
The head of Xcel Energy's environmental policy said he hopes Colorado will get credit for work that's already under way to cut carbon dioxide emissions under the Obama administration's newly announced effort to reduce greenhouse gases from power plants.
Minneapolis-based Xcel (NYSE: XEL) is Colorado's biggest utility with 1.4 million electricity customers.
And it's already cut the amount of pollution from its power plants across the state, Frank Prager, Xcel's vice president of environmental policy and services, said Tuesday after the president announced his plan.
Prager said Xcel executives are still reviewing the details of Obama's announcement, and that no changes are expected to occur quickly.
"What he did today was to direct the EPA [Environmental Protection Agency] to begin the process of developing regulations for greenhouse gas emissions from existing power plants — this is really the opening bell of that process," Prager said.
And it comes after Xcel has cut emissions in Colorado has plans in place to cut those emissions further, he said.
In 2005, about 34 tons of pollution drifted out of Xcel's power plants in Colorado. By 2011, emissions had been cut by 11 percent and they're expected to be down 35 percent, compared to 2005 levels, by 2020, Prager said.
The drop in Xcel's pollution levels, both existing and forecast, stem from three major initiatives, he said.
- Colorado's existing renewable energy standards, which mandate Xcel get 30 percent of its power from renewable energy sources by 2020.
- Implementation of the state's controversial 2010 Clean Air-Clean Jobs Act, which will shut down about 900 megawatts worth of coal-based power plants by 2017. The EPA approved the plan in 2012.
- Xcel's energy efficiency and energy conservation programs.
