Throughout America, the 4th of July is a summer celebration of beaches, barbecues and the birth of the nation, where parades march down Main Street and the night sky lights up with stunning fireworks displays. But how did these traditions begin?
From the Continental Congress to the explosions that light up the skies nationwide, THE HISTORY CHANNEL® presents an affectionate look at Independence Day.
Journey back to the very first celebrationin Philadelphia on July 8, 1776when the Declaration of Independence was read aloud to the citizens and the city bells rang in a proclamation of freedom. Though these humble beginnings would eventually become the all-out festival of today, Independence Dayfascinatingly enoughwasn't legally declared a holiday until 1941!
This entertaining and illuminating presentation also includes footage of 4th of July parades and fireworks nationwide, capturing the ways America commemorates its freedom.

WordPress is one of the most popular open-source content management systems in use on the internet. But despite WordPress' popularity, one knock against it has been the fact that it's always been more a 'blogging engine' than 'true' CMS.
Yesterday, WordPress took a big step toward achieving 'true' CMS status with the release of WordPress 3.0. That's thanks to several of the new features it contains.

Nancy Lanza's estate is worth only about $64,000 because of a large mortgage on the now-vacant Newtown home where she was killed by her son.
An inventory of Nancy Lanza's finances, filed in probate court earlier this month by Stamford attorney Samuel Starks, shows that at the time of her death Lanza had five bank accounts totaling about $60,000 as well as ownership of 36 Yogananda St., where she lived with her son Adam Lanza.
Adam Lanza shot his mother four times with a .22-caliber rifle on the morning of Dec. 14, 2012, and then drove to Sandy Hook Elementary School and killed 26 more people, including 20 first-graders, before killing himself.
Starks' filing shows that the house, built on more than two acres, has a fair market value of $360,000, but that Lanza has a $402,232 mortgage on the house with CitiMortgage.
The only other asset for Nancy Lanza was about $5,000 in jewelry. Overall, Starks estimated Lanza's estate at $64,236.
Several attorneys have been waiting for Stark to file an inventory of Nancy Lanza's assets before deciding whether to sue the estate.
The 3,100-square-foot house has an appraised value of more than $523,000, according to town records. Real estate agents said that what the house would actually sell for once potential home buyers realize that a mass murderer lived there is unknown.
The yellow house has been vacant since the Dec. 14 massacre, except for police who removed evidence from it, mostly from Adam Lanza's room. Eventually authorities turned the house back over to Peter Lanza, Nancy's former husband, about two weeks after the murders.

Yeeeeez, is those two posts really that hard to read???
Judgings will be Sundays. Deadlines will be midnight between Saturday and Sunday, AG time
As far as I am concerned, if the art isn't in when I wake up at 8 in the morning (which is two hours past AG midnight), then it's not getting judged. If I judge on Sundays, then why think it needs to be done before Saturday?
I must be worse at English than I thought... And it even got approved by Zophia.
Anyway, now that I am already ranting: I am looking forward to judging the current two entries, they look interesting. I am also a bit confused that so few have entered, when so many entered the Gaslamp Fantasy one. On top of that, I could use a guest judge for the next round, as I have obligations elsewhere, and might not be able to judge in proper time, as I will not have any internet where said obligations are.
Oh, and Ernie? Take it as a compliment. Your drawing was stiff, but there was nothing hellish wrong with the anatomy. Even if you were referencing the anatomy, it's not half bad. Just stiff and not particularly dynamic.
Posted Sep 1, '12 at 3:37pm

If no one else says they will do it I will do it. But you will come up with the topic. I would be horrible probably at making a topic.

Micah Brandt and Donny Wright are happily wrapped up in each others hot embrace as they kiss with manly passion. Micahs lips traverse the landscape of Donnys muscular body running from nipple to nipple, down along his treasure trail until he winds up hitting pay dirt as he swallows his partners thick erect dick. He sucks on the meat pole greedily and the two continue their sexual floorshow as they twist around so Donny can dig in and rim Micahs ass. The big guys tonguing skills have his buddy tingling with excitement and every lick is marked with a satisfied moan. Having prepped Micahs hole, Donny pierces through with his big cock. He charges right in moving in a steady rhythm, then pumps faster and faster. Micahs eyes roll back in his head as he gasps for air, grasps his cock and strokes it until he squeezes out a milky load. Donny is quick to answer as he finishes himself off by hand and blasts Micahs mug with his jizz.

KanawhaCounty lost twice as many taxpayers and their
dependents in 1999 than in 1994. Why is the population loss accelerating,
where are people going and what can be done to turn it around?
Imagine all the people in Charleston packing their belongings and
leaving KanawhaCounty, never to return. How many schools
would have to close? How many services would be cut for the people left
KanawhaCounty has lost more than 53,000 people since
1960, according to U.S. Census figures. That's about the number of
Charleston residents today.
The county's bleeding of people slowed in the early 1990s, but the flow
has grown into a hemorrhage in the last five years, according to migration
data from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. The county lost twice
as many people in 1999 than in 1994, the data show.
If the people who left KanawhaCounty were replaced by an
equal number of people coming in, the trend would go unnoticed. Instead,
6,789 more people have fled the county than have moved here between
1994 and 1999, according to the IRS data.
That's the same as if every resident of Nitro loaded up their U-Hauls
and took off. It's as if every Charleston Alley Cat fan sitting in Watt
Powell Park and every West Virginia Symphony patron in Charleston's
Municipal Auditorium disappeared from the county forever.
A constant drain
For this story, the Sunday Gazette-Mail conducted a computer-assisted
analysis on IRS migration data for KanawhaCounty from 1994
until 1999, the most recent year available.
The IRS keeps tabs on more than just how much money the government is
owed. Taxpayers tell the IRS which county they live in when they
fill out their tax return. By comparing the taxpayer's county of
residence from year to year, the IRS can tell us how many taxpayers and
their dependents moved into a county and how many people left. The
data is not perfect, but it captures an estimated 80 percent of all
In 1994, 7,231 people left KanawhaCounty and 6,442
people moved in. The county lost 798 people. In 1999, 7,659 people
left and 5,996 moved in. That year, the county's population drain doubled
to 1,663 people (see accompanying chart).
The departing taxpayers took with them more than $158 million in
taxable income. KanawhaCounty loses their purchasing power,
Teachers, parents and students in KanawhaCounty schools
know firsthand the pain that this population decline can cause. The school
than 40,000 students attended KanawhaCounty schools in
1980, compared to only 28,000 today.
The school board has closed school after school, citing declining
enrollment. More than 200 KanawhaCounty school employees
are slated to lose their jobs this summer.
Everyone in KanawhaCounty, not just families with
children, suffers when the population drops, according to Charleston Mayor
Jay Goldman. When many people leave, the cost of sewers, water and other
"We either have to cut services or the people who remain have to pay
more," Goldman said.
Where are they going?
People have been leaving West Virginia in great numbers since the
1940s. Back then, the "Hillbilly Highway" ran north to factory towns such
as Columbus, Cleveland and Detroit.
Now, southern states like North Carolina, Florida, Virginia and
Tennessee are the most popular destination for people who leave
KanawhaCounty and never come back. Kanawha
County had a net loss of almost 4,000 taxpayers and their
dependents to southern states between 1993 and 1999. About 570 were lost
to the Midwest - states like Ohio, Indiana, Michigan and Illinois.
Many Kanawha taxpayers are making shorter moves to the suburban
and rural areas west of the county. More than 2,600 Kanawha
County taxpayers and their dependents moved to Putnam County
in the last six years. Jackson, Lincoln, Cabell and Roane gained a total
of more than 1,000 taxpayers.
KanawhaCounty is gaining taxpayers and dependents from
one area of the state: the southern coalfields. Boone, Logan, Fayette and
Raleigh counties all contributed almost 1,000 taxpayers to the
The median income of the people leaving the county is about $400
a year higher than the income of those coming into the county -
$19,590 for out-migrants compared to $19,174 for in-migrants.

Hot answers tagged etudes
For understanding I suggest (besides the obvious time spent listening) to listen specifically to children's audio books and to "bad" movies.
The reason is that in these settings there are over-emphasized phrases that are "over-pronounced" and this is one of the ways to actually get your auditory brain to decide what kind of new sounds are important before ...
Je suis Anglais, et au début, c'était très difficile de me souvenir du genre de tout les mots. Honnêtement, parce que je n'ai jamais trouvé des règles sans exceptions, je vous conseille de :
Apprendre, avec chaque mot, le genre de ce mot aussi. Si on apprend le vocabulaire pour un contrôle, par exemple, ne pas éviter l'apprentissage des genres.

One advice: read introduction books/resources in Spanish and in English. After the introduction phase I don't think it makes much of a difference. (Assuming you are fluent enough in Spanish.)
Example: Learning German pronunciation from the point of view of a French speaker is easier when explained from French than from English. But basic German vocabulary ...
Not exactly a series per se, but I found "Qui veut gagner des millions?" to be very interesting to watch to improve my own French. The questions (and answers) are comparable to the English version, with say 50% being cultural (which I mostly hadn't a clue on, but learned a lot from) and 50% being general knowledge (which I knew or could guess at in English), ...
This may sound obvious, but avoid translated movies/series - pick ones which are natively in French. There aren't that much of French series, though: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_French_television_series.
I'd probably recommend starting with animated series, being targeted at children the langage may be easier. The "Once upon a time..." (Il était une ...

Le site le Point du FLE peut être utile.
Tu peux aussi te servir d'une méthode d'enseignement du FLE pour adultes
Tu auras du mal à trouver des manuels scolaires directement téléchargeables à cause des problèmes de copyright.
Mais tu pourras peut-être trouver quelque chose qui t'intéresse à partir du portail FLE (Français Langue Étrangère) Le Point du FLE.
Dans la rubrique activités il y a de nombreuses adresses probablement intéressantes. J'ai repéré ces deux là :
As you have noted, the most common way of doing it is to use suffixes, which sometimes indicate what gender nouns will have. You can easily find lists (with Google) such as this one which will give you suffixes and what gender they typically indicate. This second one actually includes the accuracy for each suffix, i.e. the percentage of exceptional cases.
I'd strongly suggest finding a local group that speaks French socially, and going along!
Meetup.com is a good way to do this, but it isn't the only way to find groups. (It just so happens to be very strong on French language groups near where I live, which is why I know about it).
Once you've located a nearby group that welcomes people at your level, go ...

This may be off-topic (downvote if you think so!) but I think books are just as useful for learning a language as movies, if not more so. I especially recommend the Harry Potter series, for the following reasons:
It was written for children, so it's fairly easy to understand, especially the first two books.
It's very long (the English version is about ...

Common sense would dictate that, Spanish being closer to French, it may be easier to learn the latter from the former; but I do not think this is entirely true – or at least, that it is not always true. My background is that of a native French speaker who is fluent in English but was never able to master Spanish; I have devoted a lot of time to teaching ...
Having lived in France for a few years, I myself spoke well enough to live there happily, play for a local football team, run a business and have French friends. My partner at the time however did not. She only had a very limited French vocabulary and had no idea how to string a sentence together.
You say me where bakery. Bakery where? Where is the bakery? ...
For a native English speaker with no previous French experience and limited time, I would recommend dividing one's efforts between reading a phrasebook, for vocabulary, and using Duolingo, for general familiarity with the language, its grammar and its constructs.
If you're fairly new to French, then I'd suggest you try watching easier French films with English subtitles on them. You want something that doesn't have a lot of slang (argot) in them. Comedy films often work well, as do quite a few RomComs. There are loads of films in this category that you can watch, so your easiest way is probably just to watch out for ...
In big cities in France, you can take lessons at L'Alliance française. Many foreigner friends of mine found that this is a great experience, not only because of the high quality of lessons but also because of the social events with all the students and french as the only common language.
This is maybe not a tool to begin with, but it helps a lot when it comes the time to write a sentence with maybe, some medium skills. When I'm writing a text in french, I usually use this online tool: http://bonpatron.com/en/. It is easy to use and gives you reason of why you made a mistake somewhere.
Although I speak French all day long, this tool always ...
Immersion helped my French extremely and attempting to be friends with French. Don't be shy, attempt to talk to everyone.
Also, try to learn the tenses for some important verbs.

je suis allé (past tense) i went

If you understand Vengeance à l'albanaise (2mn), it's ok. Try other reportages on this site.
If not, listen the marvellous La vache et le Peul (but... 7mn ! ). Then try RFM.
I watch sometimes french quiz shows. Often the questions are shown as subtitles. So you learn something about contemporary french culture, vocabulary, pronounciation and formulating simple questions and answers. There are also quiz shows for teenagers and kids, as the comment by oli suggests.

There is a short radio program on "France Inter" which is called "qu'est-ce que tu me jactes". Each week, this radio program explains a French argot term.

You can download it here.
Yeah, I have tried Parler 100 myself.
I think it is great. I used to practice a lot in language laboratories when starting a new one. With this app you have a mini labo in your pocket, for use in the train or wherever you wish. It has 100 sentences to start with; but you can also add your own.
As you can see reading yothman above, different people have ...
I'm currently using Duolingo and I can say that it is great for total beginner. I have tried other apps even online learning but can't seem to grasp it until I tried Duolingo. What works for me is that it introduces you to some basic words, how to string sentences with them and then Duolingo use it differently in different context and as you progress into ...
Try tunein.com and search for "French Talk". You will get a few hundreds of French-talking radio stations.
Something else that I found interesting while learning French was to follow dictation for children, like this one: www.ladictee.fr
For radio stations, I particulary like Radio France Internationale, especially the section "apprendre, enseigner la ...
Download the free "Radio Francaise" application for iPhone/iPad. It has tons of stations including ones from different regions of France as well as from other francophone regions outside of France. If you want something that is easier to follow then listen to news programs from "France Info" and "RFI Monde". RMC can be more for advanced learners if you ...
For pronunciation, try this book (better not finish it !! or you may end up pedant) and master some vocabulary in this book and for grammar you can always do some books like this one. But the most of it,..try to engage conversations with a french speaker... There are some idioms not well mastered when reading books.
I love collecting language grammar books in general, and by far one of my favorites is French Grammar and Usage by Hawkins and Towell. It is exceptionally well-organized and a pleasure to read, with lots of examples. It has perhaps the clearest explanation of the subjunctive that I have ever come across.
The one disadvantage for you is that it is has ...
I just found a study on the internet saying that by knowing the 1000 most frequent words in English, you are able to understand 84.3% of a conversation. It might be a little bit less for french, but anyway, with your first 1000 words you will known already a lot!

Nozzle was the representative of the side of Sofa King. He originally wanted to leave the coalition after the croaking and subsequent uncroaking of the Jetstone troops in the tunnels under Gobwin Knob. Prince Ansom persuaded him to stay with his attack on the walls.
He was shocked and crapped while the siege of Gobwin Knob by an attack of Golems led by Sizemore Rockwell and has not been seen since. With the eruption of the mountain, and with most of the sides involved reporting complete casualties, he is presumed killed in action.

Brittany - The Emerald Coast
Pedestrian, By car, 95 km, 2 daysThe Emerald Coast, named after the colour of the sea in Spring, embraces a number of places between the majestic bays of Mont St Michel and St-Brieue.
Customise this route and add it to My travel bookThe headland commands a sweeping view which extends from Cap Fréhel to Granville and Mont-St-Michel bay, with the Îles Chausey in the distance. Facing the Pointe du Groin, the Île des Landes is a bird sanctuary and nature reserve, home to common shelduck, shag, cormorant and gulls. A cave carved out of the cliff (10m high, 30m deep) can be explored at low tide via a footpath.
The Tip of Hock and the Customs Officers' Footpath
On both sides of the Tip of Hock, the Customs Officers' Footpath is suspended over the shore. There are many sights: the oyster bed at the bottom of the cliff, the Cancale Rock, the tip of the Chaîne facing Cancale Rock.
By way of the St Vincent gate you reach the ramparts that were begun in the 12C. Some houses are still intact after the bombings of 1944. Beyond the Great Gate you'll find a view over the narrow isthmus which links the old town to the suburbs. From bastion to bastion you then go along past the houses of rich St Malo shipowners finding some attractive views both over the town that was rebuilt stone by stone and over the sea. An unmissable walk for an in-depth study of the privateer's city.
This walk offers magnificent views of the city of St-Malo, the islands of Petit Bé and Grand Bé, and the island of Cézembre. The city's fort can be seen together with the whole harbour, with, in the distance, the fortified isle of Grande Conchée, the Grand Jardin lighthouse (on the left), Harbour Island and its fort, Cap Fréhel and the Pointe du Décollé, followed by reefs. Take the steep downhill path to the right for a very fine view of the Rance estuary and, beyond, the tidal power-station.
Promenade du Clair de Lune
This pedestrians seawall promenade offers an attractive view over the Rance estuary. Flower beds and striking Mediterranean vegetation add to its beauty which is further enhanced from mid-June to mid-September when the vegetation is discreetly illuminated and music plays in the background. It is ideal for a romantic walk with the partner of your choice, particularly as it leads to the Prieuré beach at the far end.
The Pointe du Décollé is joined to the mainland by a natural bridge over the deep Saut du Chat crevasse. Beyond the bridge, there are various possibilities for walks. From the granite cross, there is a splendid view over the Emerald Coast with Cap Fréhel in the distance.
From the bridge over the fault where it is open to the sea, you can see the bottom of the cave, pounded forcefully by the water at high tide.
Among the trees in an old cemetery, the 11C nave containing the tomb of St Lunaire is still standing. The recumbent 14C figure of the saint is lying on a Gallo-Roman sarcophagus. Seven other tombs can be seen in the transept. Note the richly sculpted tomb of a lady of Pontual (13 to 14C).
From the far end of the point, there is a fine view of the beaches of St Cast and Pen Guen and the coastline as far as La Garde point. A statue of Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde by Armel Beaufils stands here. A pathway for visitors runs around the point, along the beach corniche near the Ar Vro hotel, close to the oratory and follows the cliff on the point to the dry-dock entrance road on the south side.
Since 1890, this pretty name has been used to refer to the stretch of coast between the bays of Mont-St-Michel (St Michael's Mount) and St-Brieuc. You can admire wonderful panoramic views at Pointe du Grouin and Cap Fréhel, the coast's most grandiose site. From here you can visit nearby Fort la Latte. Make a beeline for St-Malo, Dinard, a smart resort at the mouth of the Rance, and the family resort of St-Cast-le-Guildo. Beach-lovers will be spoilt for choice between St-Lunaire, Sables-d'Or-les-Pins and Val-André.
On the point stands a monument in memory of those who «Escaped from France, preferring to die on their feet rather than live on their knees». The view of the Emerald Coast is superb. Next to the signal station is a useful orientation table. On the nearby Mare beach stands a monument to the victims of the frigate Laplace, blown up by a mine in 1950.
This stronghold, built by the Goyon-Matignons in the 14C, was remodelled in the 17C and restored in the early 20C, but has kept its feudal appearance. Towering 60m above the sea, it stands on a spectacular site separated from the mainland by two gullies which are crossed by drawbridges. Once past the thick wall made to shield the defender from cannonballs, you reach the Tour de l'Échauguette and the curious oven used to heat the cannonballs until they were red-hot. Access to the keep is via a look-out post. The sentry walk commands a superb view of the entire Emerald Coast.
The broad view of the coast on clear days is especially beautiful at sunset. It goes as far as Grouin Point to the right, and to the left, up to Bréhat Island. Sometimes the Channel Islands can be seen; the illustrious outline of La Latte Fort stands to the right. According to a legend in ancient times, one could reach the Channel Islands on foot. Scientists have proved that this story is totally absurd. Nonetheless, at Frénaye Bay, some people say they can see a paved lane under the water at low tide! The commune of Fréhel was created in 1973 when the villages of Pléhérel and Plévenon were merged. These two «Plou» (which in Celtic means village, thus «Plé») were founded in the 5C. by the Britons from across the Channel, respectively called Hérel (we are almost here) and Venon.
The lighthouse, (145 steps) built in 1950, uses a xenon arch lamp. Its light range varies from 200 m (in very thick fog) to 120 km (on nice days). From the tower gallery, one can see Bréhat Island to the East, Jersey to the North, Granville, part of Cotentin and the Island of Chayset to the North East. On misty days, at 400 m from the lighthouse, a siren produces a set of two sounds every minute.

Comments about Aquarian Studio-X Power Dot Drumhead:
Was looking for a different snare tone out of a steel 5x14. Usually use remo coated controlled sound or aquarian texture coated reverse dot. This clear head produces a really punchy attack with just enough overtones. Adds depth without using slow 2 or 3 ply heads . Added a great character to a kind of normally boring stock snare drum. Under ring dose not choke the snare at all. Don't be afraid of using clear snare heads people! Big fan now.
Comments about Aquarian Studio-X Power Dot Drumhead:
This Studio-X drumhead sounds pretty good. I like the power dot that increases the durability without effecting the sound.
Comments about Aquarian Studio-X Power Dot Drumhead:
All around a great snare head, but becuase of my crappy snare I couldn't get this overtone out - so I duct taped a piece of rubber under the head. After I did that, it sounded awesome! Highly recommended.

Trent Douglas, Plastic Surgeon
Plastic surgeon Cmdr. Trent Douglas 95M 06MR traveled halfway across the globe on a five‐month humanitarian mission for Pacific Partnership in 2010. From May through September, he was on board the USNS Mercy, a 1,000‐bed floating hospital equipped with 12 operating rooms and served by a 1,000‐member crew comprised of medical, dental, veterinary, and surgical specialists, public health and other medical professionals, as well as the Navy's Seabees construction engineers. Their mission was to work with local providers, non‐governmental agencies and military from partner nations to aid medically underserved people in Vietnam, Cambodia, Indonesia, and Timor Leste. Along the way, they built relationships, exchanged information with local doctors and nurses, construct clinics, and brought the best medical care the U.S. has to offer directly to the shores of these often politically unstable developing nations.

From Wikiquote
(Redirected from Universalist)
Universalism in its primary meaning refers to religious, ethical, theological, and other philosophical concepts with universal application or applicability. Religious or social alliances, communities or churches which call themselves Universalist often emphasize the universal principles of most religions and accept many aspects of other religions in an eclectic and inclusive manner, believing in a universal reconciliation between humanity and the divine.
- See also:
- We are, the great spiritual writers insist, most fully ourselves when we give ourselves away, and it is egotism that holds us back from that transcendent experience that has been called God, Nirvana, Brahman, or the Tao.
What I now realize, from my study of the different religious traditions, is that a disciplined attempt to go beyond the ego brings about a state of ecstasy. Indeed, it is in itself ekstasis. Theologians in all the great faiths have devised all kinds of myths to show that this type of kenosis, or self-emptying, is found in the life of God itself. They do not do this because it sounds edifying, but because this is the way that human nature seems to work. We are most creative and sense other possibilities that transcend our ordinary experience when we leave ourselves behind.- Karen Armstrong, in The Spiral Staircase : My Climb Out of Darkness (2004)
- Spirituality is much wider than any particular religion, and in the larger ideas of it that are now coming on us even the greatest religion becomes no more than a broad sect or branch of the one universal religion, by which we shall understand in the future man's seeking for the eternal, the divine, the greater self, the source of unity and his attempt to arrive at some equation, some increasing approximation of the values of human life with the eternal and the divine values.
- Sri Aurobindo in The Renaissance in India (1918)
- Given that only the religion of pervasive kenosis can be truly universal, no single historical individual can exhaust its fullness by virtue of his redemptive acts, and no religious institution can grasp and articulate its meaning by means of dogmatic or doctrinal teachings. In the last resort, it is in the name of religious universalism that Simone Weil calls for a reversion of historical Christianity to its origins as a religion of kenosis.
- J. Edgar Bauer, in "Simone Weil: Kenotic Thought and "Sainteté Nouvelle" in The 2002 CESNUR International Conference : Minority Religions, Social Change, and Freedom of Conscience (June 2002)
- In reality there are as many religions as there are individuals.
- Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, in Hind Swaraj (1908)
- After long study and experience, I have come to the conclusion that [1] all religions are true; [2] all religions have some error in them; [3] all religions are almost as dear to me as my own Hinduism, in as much as all human beings should be as dear to one as one's own close relatives. My own veneration for other faiths is the same as that for my own faith; therefore no thought of conversion is possible.
- Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, in All Men Are Brothers: Life and Thoughts of Mahatma Gandhi as told in his own words (1958) edited by UNESCO, p 60.)
- Religions are different roads converging to the same point. What does it matter that we take different road, so long as we reach the same goal. Wherein is the cause for quarreling?
- Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, speaking of the conflict between Muslims and Hindus, in Hind Swaraj, Or Indian Home Rule (1946), p. 36
- The mission of the Universalist church has been a double one, first to contravert the one-time prevalent idea of an endless hell. This part of the mission has practically been accomplished. … But the second and more important one awaits fulfillment … a fight which shall continue until the real, actual hells, before our very eyes, are destroyed.
- Those of us who are Gnostics believe that all people are ultimately saved and that God always loves us, no matter what we do. These beliefs are true, but they can very easily be simplified and misunderstood. God is never angry with us in the way in which a vengeful human would reject us, but God's love for us has a dark side and one which we should rightfully fear. God loves us not in a sentimental way which aims at our ease and pleasure but, rather in a way which aims at our highest good and with an intensity which no one, even the highest angels, can understand.
- Edward J. Parkinson, in "Divine Justice: Gnostic Reflections on Some Often Terrifying Realities" at CatholicGnostics.com.
- There are two alternatives, and only two, before us. First, which is unlikely, is that we unscramble our modern interdependent culture, returning to separate and isolationist lives … Such a world would not demand greatness. The other alternative is to so expand our spiritual powers that we vastly increase the range of our understanding and sympathy. There is no middle way. It is greatness — universalism — or perish.
- Clarence Skinner, in The Universalist Leader, Vol. 125, Issue 24 (1943), p. 748

Officials at Auburn University are hoping a radical new procedure being performed on the oaks at Toomer's Corner will help them battle the spike 80 DF poison.
Tree Task Force leader Gary Keever met News Leader 9 Tuesday and showed the dozens of holes drilled into the oaks at Toomer's corner, where a sugar substance has been injected.
Keever says it is like a feeding tube for trees and believes the experimental procedure was a success.
The oak on College Street took up 25 gallons of the substance and the Magnolia tree sucked up 20 gallons.
"As you know Spike 80 DF prevents trees from photosynthesis. It is photosynthesis that allows the trees to get sugars or carbohydrates so we would like to replace those carbs by artificially injecting them into the trees," says Keever.
Experts are hoping the sugar substance will create a new flush of growth on the trees, including new shoots and leaves.
So far, Keever says the leaves are not showing any signs of poison, and that is a very good sign.
Keever says he is not ready to say the trees will live. However, we should know a lot more in the next month when soil samples are taken and tested to see how much of the spike 80 DF remains.
