Feast of St Augustine of Hippo: Defender of Truth
St. Augustine was an ardent defender of the truth and unity of the Catholic Church
If there is any message which can be drawn from St. Augustine's life, and there are many, it is the message of repentance and conversion. This is a message the world desperately needs to hear today. It is one of heartfelt dedication to Christ as Master, Teacher and Savior, which cultivates and nourishes change; it is one of sincere commitment to love in freedom and obedience; it is one of abandonment in trust and ardent devotion to the Other: the source and origin of our being and life.In his book, Confessions, we read of the re-creative and regenerative effects of true and sincere repentance, which, by God's grace, sets a man upon a wholly new journey of life.
St. Augustine: "Too late have I loved Thee, O Beauty ever ancient, ever new. Too late have I loved Thee. For behold Thou wert within, and I without, and there did I seek Thee. I, unlovely, rushed heedlessly among the things of beauty which Thou madest" (Bk. 10, 27, 38).
GLADE PARK, CO (Catholic Online) -- St. Augustine was born at Tagaste (what is now Souk-Ahras, Algeria) in Northern Africa, 50 miles south of Hippo on November 13, 354 A.D. His mother, St. Monica, was a woman of intense prayer and self-sacrifice, who suffered an unhappy marriage to Patricius, her short-tempered husband. As a young man, St. Augustine taught grammar at Tagaste, and later rhetoric at Carthage, Rome and Milan.
For about nine years Augustine belonged to an heretical sect known as the Manicheans, a religion founded by the Persian Mani that "purported to be the true synthesis of all the religious systems then known" (Catholic Encyclopedia). Styled after Gnosticism, there were few Christian elements to be found in Manichaeism, which is most often classified as a form of religious dualism. The Manicheans taught a false understanding of the universe as the outcome of two eternal principles -- good and evil. As would be expected by a group who professes secret teaching, they held the authority and faith of the Catholic Church in contempt. Soon however, perhaps mainly due to the prayers of his mother, the great intellect of Augustine became dissatisfied with the Manicheans.
Although St. Augustine's rowdiness and sinful lifestyle as a young man is well known from his autobiography, his marked conversion to the faith of the Catholic Church, his repentance and love for God, and his willingness to give of himself entirely to Christ -- albeit with some struggle -- provides us with the real meaning of his life.
Fr. Christopher Rengers characterized St. Augustine as a man "renown for learning, for oratorical prowess, and for holiness. He was a man who loved the truth intensely, whose whole life would be spent in seeking out the secrets of nature and of Divine Revelation" (The 33 Doctors Of The Church 117). St. Augustine, the Doctor of Grace and Doctor of Doctors, is regarded as one of the greatest intellects in the entire history of the Church.
Too Late Have I Loved Thee, O Beauty Ever Ancient
It was in about 397 A.D. that St. Augustine wrote his famous autobiography, Confessions, in which we read not simply of the former life of a man, with all its struggles, adventures and passions, but rather of the story of a man whose life was, by the power and grace of the Holy Spirit, drawn to the Father by that incomparable and astonishing love of the Son. In his book, Confessions, we read of the re-creative and regenerative effects of true and sincere repentance, which, by God's grace, sets a man upon a wholly new journey of life:
"Too late have I loved Thee, O Beauty ever ancient, ever new. Too late have I loved Thee. For behold Thou wert within, and I without, and there did I seek Thee. I, unlovely, rushed heedlessly among the things of beauty which Thou madest" (Bk. 10, 27, 38).
Here we find St. Augustine expressing a twofold truth: the profound change which results from true repentance and, inseparable from it, the regret which initially envelops the soul who fully realizes the implications of a life previously lived outside of God's grace. Simply, the sudden embrace of Love reveals, clearly and in an instant, our lowliness and sinfulness. It may be characterized as a supernatural infusion of true self-awareness. We see ourselves and our limitations in a new, divinely imparted light, which seems to illumine our every weakness. This, too, is an act of God's mercy: what soul who is in love with God does not desire the annihilation of its pride?
Some will here insist that Catholics "cannot let go of their guilt." But it is not about "guilt," rather it is about a healthy awareness of human finitude, the possible effects of free will, concupiscence, and the important role our past errors play in helping us to face the reality of what lay before us. Additionally, the word guilt is often used synonymously with regret; however, these two words have very different meanings. Guilt is imputed to us for those sins we have committed; it is removed through the sacrament of Penance and Reconciliation. Regret, on the other hand, is an emotional response to unpleasant memories.
Repentance does not erase our past life, nor does forgiveness erase our memory of those times we have failed to love God with all our heart, mind and soul. In point of fact, the greater our union with God, the clearer we see our entire existence. That greater union can, to some extent, come about as an effect of healthy regret. Therefore regret is not harmful or inappropriate, for it can be the result of an infusion of actual grace which moves us toward a deeper repentance and conversion, and which urges us to seek sacramental confession. Too, an awareness of our failings is a healthy antidote against over-confidence and an incorrect reliance on ourselves as opposed to placing our trust in God.
Nevertheless, regret is a feeling. The grace of forgiveness attained through the sacrament of Penance and Reconciliation is certain, provided one has made a proper confession. It is this truth and the rest of it, the fullness of truth which has now been transmitted by the Catholic Church for twenty-centuries, that drew St. Augustine away from the heretical teaching of the Manicheans toward the unsurpassable beauty of the consummation of God's revelation: the Person of Jesus Christ.
The Truth and Unity of The Catholic Church
If there is any message which can be drawn from St. Augustine's life, and there are many, it is the message of repentance and conversion so eloquently written in the short excerpt above. This is a message the world desperately needs to hear today. It is one of heartfelt dedication to Christ as Master, Teacher and Savior, which cultivates and nourishes change; it is one of sincere commitment to love in freedom and obedience; it is one of abandonment in trust and ardent devotion to the Other: the source and origin of our being and life.
Further, as a thirst for truth develops in which God's revelation is sought after as if it is as important as life itself, the soul is led to the truth and unity of the Catholic Church. There, we rest in the knowledge of certainty, removed from those contradictions which otherwise so often plague us, and find our peace in the Word of God who speaks through his Church. Thus St. Augustine became an ardent defender of the truth and beauty of the Catholic Church:
"The Church is spread throughout the whole world: all nations have the Church. Let no one deceive you; it is true, it is the Catholic Church. Christ we have not seen, but we have her; let us believe as regards Him. The Apostles, on the contrary, saw Him, but they believed as regards her" (Sermon 238).

It is said that St. Augustine walking on the sands of the Mediterranean sea once saw a small child trying to empty the sea into a hole dug on the sand & when Augustine Appraised the child of His folly, the Child replied "in the same way you try to understand The Father, Son & Holy Spirit "as one God in the perfection, to the meaning that the Trinity in the perfection cannot be understood through the human mind, but by & in the Spirit. The moving of St. Augustine from the Manicheans(the likes of Simon Magus) to the Catholic Faith was His move from the False or Pseudo Christ to the Christ, guided by the Holy Spirit, which Pseudo Christ is the Hindu Kris'na , the Christ of the Manicheans (even hidden)in the Avatars-the Anthisis to God, maurading as the false Christ today(to the words of Jesus "For them before me are thieves & robbers, but my sheep hear them not), the iniquity that has been at work for a long time.

would attempt to pass, and could not even go for our cattle without being in danger of having our back stuck full of arrows. To settle at that point is not good policy at present Still, within a few years, that country will no doubt be settled and be the grand post of farming in this country, and I believe that this was the mind and spirit of every man that went with me to explore that country. President Smith drew up the plans for a fort and William H. Dame surveyed the area. The fort was to be located on the east bank of the creek on high enough ground to give them a commanding view of the countryside. On January 22, the surveyor William H. ~ & e ,and his hand finished the Fort plot which was 56 rods square. The plot contained 92 lots, each measuring 33 by 66 feet around the perimeter, as well as a layout for roads and a corral for the livestock. A detail of men began building a road up Center Creek Canyon and it was miraculous how quickly it took shape. The Indians stayed around the camp and made the settlers somewhat apprehensive as to their intentions. They seemed peacefU, but ten men were detailed to guard the camp and the livestock.' The road was completed up Center Creek Canyon by Friday, January 24, and Smith addressed the settlers declaring that they had accomplished a miracle. Also, the timbers for the Council House were all cut, the fort was laid out, and each man had a lot. In fact, there were only two lots left for new settlers. This was all done in just five days in addition to completing the other duties, such as tending the cattle, erecting grindstones, blacksmithing, exploring, and writing. The men kept the public grindstone rolling all day Saturday sharpening up the axes to obtain a liberty pole from the canyon. The following week, Captain Baker and some of the brethren dug the hole and, that same afternobn, the pole was raised in the center of the corral. President Smith dedicated the fifty-foot pine pole to liberty of God.' This symbol of liberty and truth dated back to the days of the Book of Mormon. In the following scripture, Alma 46:12: "Moroni rent his coat and wrote upon it in memory of our God, our religion

March 12, 2014
She did not work for Century Aluminum, but Karen Gorrell has, in many ways, been the face of the struggle for the company's retirees to regain their health benefits.
Tuesday, those retirees were on hand to show support for Gorrell and her husband.
Both Gorrells were summoned to the shut-down Century plant to provide a deposition on the case for company attorneys.
Those health benefits were discontinued in 2010, shortly after the plant's closing.
Former workers tell us they are not only showing support for Gorrell and her husband, who is a retiree - they want to show the company their desire to have those benefits reinstated.
"They promised us, in every situation, that they would reopen this plant. We went along with them; we went down to the legislature and get that $60 million package through and to the PSC. They promised us they would reopen the plant and start it shortly, and here we still are, waiting," says retiree Jim Weltner.
Reinstatement of those benefits, like the plant's reopening, has been on hold since last year, after Century was unsuccessful in getting a lower rate on its utility costs.
Calls made to Century's California headquarters for their comment were not returned.

Object No. 2012.08.01 Donor: Rabbi Arnold Saltzman Description: Tallit bag (15"x10.5") made of burgundy velvet with a red, yellow, green, and blue flower trim. Features Star of David design.
Background: This hand-sewn tallit bag was used by three generations of Rabbi Saltzman's family. The bag, which likely dates to the 19th century, was handmade by Saltzman's maternal grandfather, Samuel Holzman, a tailor who emigrated from Russia to the United States. In Holzman's bequest, each of his 18 grandchildren received something he had made for them from fabric. Their grandmother presented an item to each grandchild after their grandfather's death. Saltzman received the bag prior to his bar mitzvah in 1961. Saltzman's father, Max, was a tailor who left Poland for America in 1904. By age 18, he owned a clothing manufacturing business in New York. As a fellow artisan, Max so admired his father-in-law's tallit bag that he soon "borrowed" it from his son. Not until Max's death in 1983 did his son reclaim the precious object.
Rabbi Saltzman used it through his remaining 22 years as Adas Israel Congregation's cantor and it accompanied him on his numerous trips to Israel. Once it became too fragile to use, Saltzman, now a rabbi, donated it to the Jewish Historical Society. The tallit bag is a wonderful reminder of beloved relatives and a world gone by.

Please feel free to share this update with your family, friends, and others who may be interested in state government operations.

Barrett Can't Name Any Schools Hurt by Walker's Collective Bargaining Reforms

Having To Do the Hard Tough Right Things!
As Governor Scott Walker and Governor Chris Christie show you will not be loved or liked all that much to make the hard tough right choices. I just wish my former friend and others would see that. All they see is the little bit of personal money they are losing and missing the big picture that this is good for all of Wisconsin. It is sad that they are like that.

Guest Blog by Paul B. - A Report Card on Scott Walker
Some things below that we are not reading in the Journal or Madison papers.
Let's Start To Have Answers!
I get so tired of hearing those PUP and people that suffer from Walker Derangement Syndrome just say that Governor Walker (typically they don't use his title and name – they name call some vial thing) that Walker did the wrong thing and the wrong way to fix the budget shortfall (they also forget to mention that Governor Doyle gave us the budget deficit).
Voter ID Is Not Complicated!
I on Nov 21st attempted to post a comment on South Milwaukee Alderman's Erik Brooks blog on Public Meeting On Voter ID Scheduled In South Milwaukee, but my comment was never posted. I waited a week later and I tried it a few more times and still nothing.
Recall Petition Signature Rules
1. DO NOT sign the petition if you disagree with these recalls of the Governor, Lt. Governor, and/or the Senator you are being asked to sign for. Please do not fall to peer- pressure to sign or sign the petition just to get the people to go away!

Stepping Over the Line
When the recall mob crossed the line and took over Governor Scott Walker's personal home (we will not even make an issue that all of these mobs are illegal taking over the streets as they don't have street permits – ever try having a block party and shutting down a street) there are some including on the right that say, "Too bad Scott Walker put his family in this situation" I would like to offer my perspective on it.

Randy thank you for emailing back and posting the topic we were talking you explained it so much better. I will accept the fact that maybe I am not a conservative like I thought, I guess I would be a moderate, but maybe I am an independent and just vote with the republicans. My social liberal feelings run strong and you have a strong point. I still think that many moderates are "Towing the Party lines" I know I told you I am a state employee with about 5 years before retirement and losing $385 a month is still going to hurt. Maybe I have been stretching my money further than I should have, but if you were me and in my shoes knowing they cannot touch my money, you would have stretch it as well.

What Does the Raised Clenched Fist Symbolize? Part 1
The raised fist (also known as the clenched fist) is a salute and logo most often used by left-wing activists, such as: Marxists, anarchists, socialists, communists, pacifists, trade unionists, and black nationalists. The raised fist is usually regarded as an expression of solidarity, strength or defiance. It dates back to the salute of Rotfrontkämpferbund, a paramilitary organization of the Communist Party of Germany before WWII.[1]

I think taking some of the power away from the public sector unions is a major part of Governor Walker's plan, has been from the get go.

Rated 3.5 / 5 stars October 6, 2012
The graphics were decent, though the choice of pencil/line tool for the characters made them look very awkward. If you don't have a tablet and have to use the pencil/line tool, that's fine, though I'd suggest that you at least add varying line thickness to give it an idea of depth. The scene where Mario's on Yoshi looks awkward because it's simply too thick.
The varying angles were nicely chosen and the direction was decent and compensated for the awkward-looking graphics. Everything was nicely executed.
Considering the time you had to do this, the animation was alright, though there were some flaws in it that could have been easily fixed. The tweens could use some easing to make it achieve a more natural look, otherwise it just looks a little mechanical.
It's also worth noting the short music at the end which was very fitting and suited the humorous theme of the movie.
Overall, it was okay for what it was and could use a few minor improvements. Good luck in your future endeavors.

ALBANY COUNTY, N.Y. -- The Albany County Legislature is expected to vote tonight on the pawn law that's been a hot topic for the county over the past several months. Before they vote, the public will get a chance to weigh in one more time.
Back in October, the legislature decided what's being called 'Local Law G' should be sent back to the committee for review. Some lawmakers were concerned with the bill's language after some of it was changed. The law would require pawn shops to create an electronic registry of all the items a store receives as a means of recovering stolen goods that may be pawned. Shop owners would have to report sellers' names, and would hold goods for a set length of time. Tonight's meeting takes place at 6:30 p.m. at the County Courthouse on Eagle Street in Albany.

Thanks. Fibonacci is the code to life. I'm actually getting the golden ration spiral tattooed on my ribs when I have the money
wow thats dedication, but like someone once said to me what we put most of our time into is what we love. So thats cool. crazy that all these little shapes and codes of numbers can hold us all together. The formula of life itself. Very cool indeed. best of
luck dude
I've been at community college for 5 years (part time while I was working), I just transfered to a 4 year school. So I've got about 3 more years there. But the school I'm going to has internships and work studies that will get me into the field 6 months out of every year I'm there. SO when I finally finish I should have no problem finding a job. It's a tough field, but worth it for me. I love biology. Just seeing how life works fascinates me.
I've seen that molecule. It'l interesting that a cross can appear in nature. I'm not religious, but it's cool. I'm more interested in Fibonacci and the golden ratio. That shape appears everywhere in nature. Even in our DNA
awesome! That stuff facinates me! i dont know much about it but i head about Laminin molecule and it blew me away with the shape of it. I see it somewhat of a divine symbol. Higher power stuff. Its pretty cool. thats about as much as i know. lol
Best of Luck with your studies Baba. does this mean you have like 3 years left cos isnt college like 5 years over there?
I'm studying biology. I plan to gear my classes towards botany. And when I get to my masters degree, I'll be going for Mycology. I"m 26, I'm in my second year, so most people in my classes are about 20
Yea its a pretty new thing in terms of career but I think drama as therapy has been around since its creation really. Anyhooo i totally understand what you mean about being older in classes! and as I dont live on campus and live with my husband. They call me mom haha. Im only 23 haha. So what are you studying baba, im intrigued?
That would be an awesome job. I'm with you about going to school later. I worked right out of high school for a few years, and now find myself as being one of the older people in all of my classes by at least 4-5 years
Indeed i see my seld as very lucky to have had a second chance to go to univeristy a little later than most. but its what i really love. I hope to train to become a drama therapist after i graduate.
Loads of new graffiti walls popped up recently, pretty cool. Yea uni its pretty crazy but all over for the summer! Now some chill time. I don't think I could pick between them actually I love them both just as much and they kinda roll into each other.

Pre-boarding call: Jorge De Hoyos's "Departing Things"
In the last few years, Los Angeles–born and San Francisco–based dancer-choreographer Jorge De Hoyos has worked with Sara Shelton Mann and Meg Stuart, traveled with Keith Hennessy's Turbulence project, performed in Laura Arrington's supersized SQUART marathon at Headlands Center for the Arts, and much, much more — including projects by Christine Bonansea, Sommer Ulrickson, Erika Chong Shuch Performance Project, Jesse Hewit/Strong Behavior, Pearl Marill/Pump Dance Theater, Naked Empire Bouffon Company, and Jenny McAllister. You may also have been one of the 25 or so lucky souls who traipsed after him in Golden Gate Park when he and Macklin Kowal went about in delirious Euro-drag for Bonjour le matin.
The guy has been everywhere. But his own work has been only sparingly seen since STICK, his intense debut, which premiered at the old Mama Calizo's Voice Factory's back in 2009. What has shown up here and there since then has continued to be very intriguing, though, including a short piece De Hoyos put up for one night as a guest artist alongside Miguel Gutierrez, during the three-night run last summer at the Garage of the New York choreographer's solo, Heavens What Have I Done. De Hoyos's memorably spare and freshly intelligent contribution was reportedly a bit of fast work, and one De Hoyos says had its limitations for him. If that's the case, it makes one all the more eager to see what he does with more time and exploration.
This weekend comes just such an opportunity as De Hoyos premieres Departing Things, a work made in close collaboration with fellow dancers Emily Leap and Kevin O'Connor.
This is an evolving but already advanced and, according to De Hoyos, very intense and special collaboration. A "performance experiment" he calls it. Subtitled "an ambitious dance of constant departures," it's also a pretty apt theme given this is one of the last chances to see this distinctive and restless young artist before he flies off for the summer to Europe and Russia for more gigs with Hennessy and Shelton Mann, respectively.

Dolphins Trade Greg Camarillo to Vikings for Cornerback Benny Sapp
Multiple sources have confirmed the dealing of wide receiver Greg Camarillo to the Minnesota Vikings in exchange for seventh-year veteran corner Benny Sapp. It's tough to say goodbye to Camarillo, who has been as reliable as they come, didn't drop a pass last year, and is responsible, after all, for the only win in an otherwise miserable 2007 season.
In reality, though, as hard as it is to say, he's probably already hit his ceiling as an NFL player due to his limited physical ability, and with Brian Hartline and Davone Bess already edged in stone ahead of him on the depth chart, the Dolphins were wise to free up a roster spot for a young prospect like Marlon Moore or Roberto Wallace.
Sapp comes to Miami with a respectable resume. In six seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs and Minnesota Vikings, Sapp has started 17 games, and is fresh off a career-high 7 starts a year ago. During that span, Sapp has defensed 21 passes, picked off four, forced four fumbles, and has accounted for 169 tackles. More importantly, he's spent extensive time as a nickel corner, which appears to be the main motivation behind his acquisition, with no concrete time table for Will Allen's return in place.
The roster fringe receivers may be celebrating this afternoon, but the same can't be said for Nate Ness, who impressed in the preseason opener, but is now officially a long-shot to make the team. Obviously, Sean Smith and Vontae Davis are locks, Will Allen is as well if he makes the full recovery he's expected to, Nolan Carroll isn't going anywhere, and the Dolphins have to be planning on keeping Sapp if they were willing to trade away Camarillo for his services.
That leaves former first-round pick Jason Allen and Nate Ness the only realistic candidates for a sixth corner. If the Dolphins decide to keep six, which is a good bet a the moment with Will's uncertainty, you have to think Jason Allen gets the nod as of now, due to his solid special-teams play. That's why Ness will have to imitate his Tampa Bay performance in both the third and fourth preseason game if he wants to make the cut.
Before we say goodbye to ol' reliable once and for all, let's take a look back at the day when he saved all of us the embarassment that would have come with the first 0-16 season in NFL history.

Goldman Sachs named best broker
The company used sophisticated technology and in-house trades to get the best prices for its clients, analysts say.
Goldman was able to get the average price of a trade closest to the stock level when the order was received, Bloomberg reported. JPMorgan fell to No. 4.
And during the time of Goldman's rise, stock volatility quadrupled from its average. More than 10 billion shares were traded on U.S. exchanges every day. And high-speed trading rose to account for 61% of U.S. stock market activity, according to Bloomberg.
Analysts say that Goldman came out on top because it has the most sophisticated electronic trading systems out there. "They can get some of the fastest execution times on trades, thereby minimizing some potential costs," one analyst told Bloomberg.
Brokers have become adept at using technology to shave fractions of seconds off of trades, hoping for a tiny advantage over rivals.
Goldman also says it can match buy and sell orders under its own roof. That way, it can keep the lid on what its trades look like.
Bank of America (BAC) took second place in the survey -- largely because it acquired trading powerhouse Merrill Lynch last January. Morgan Stanley was third, and fourth place was a tie between Barclays and JPMorgan.

Winter counts record various types of events.
The images on a winter count might refer to natural occurrences, such as meteor showers, unusual weather, or outbreaks of disease.

I have stayed here before and once again found the staff to be helpful and efficient. The room, which was a single, was small but well appointed, recently refurbished and spotlessly clean. The location is fantastic for all central attractions and I will definitely stay again.

At 10 mn walk from Covent Garden, Leicester Square and Picadilly Circus, this hotel offers very comfortable and clean rooms for a quite reasonable price given the location. The staff is friendly and helpful.

Pleasant hotel, with excellent staff. First class breakfast.. Only thing that lets it down is the noise of traffic on the Strand. Had to close shutters on windows to drown out noise which made the room over warm. Have stayed before and will do again.

If your window is to the street, it can be little bit noisy.
