Just when it seemed the U.S. news media had learned some lessons from earlier "terrorism" misreporting, CNN rushed out – and then retracted – a report about the arrest of a "dark-skinned" suspect. But a related problem is the compulsion to draw broad conclusions about a rare event, says ex-CIA analyst Paul R. Pillar.
Tales of Reagan's Guatemala Genocide
Exclusive: Guatemala is finally putting ex-dictator Efrain Rios Montt on trial for genocide in the extermination of hundreds of Mayan villages in the 1980s, but Ronald Reagan remains an American icon despite new evidence of his complicity in this historic crime, reports Robert Parry.
Russia Bars Bush-Era Torture Lawyers
Exclusive: Washington and Moscow exchanged lists imposing sanctions on each other's officials accused of human rights crimes. But America's benefit of the doubt no longer applies, as the Russians named John Yoo and David Addington, Bush-era legal advisers who twisted the law on torture, Robert Parry reports.
Hollywood's Dangerous Afghan Illusion
Special Report: A newly discovered document undercuts a key storyline of the anti-Soviet Afghan war of the 1980s – that it was "Charlie Wilson's War." A note inside Ronald Reagan's White House targeted the Texas Democrat as someone "to bring into circle as discrete Hill connection," Robert Parry reports.
Reagan's 'Death Squad' Tactics in Iraq
Official Washington has long ignored the genocide and terrorism that Ronald Reagan inflicted on Central America in the 1980s, making it easier to genuflect before the Republican presidential icon. That also helped Reagan's "death squad" tactics resurface in Iraq last decade, as William Boardman reports.
DiEugenio on Parry's New Book
Exclusive: America's political dysfunction stems, in large part, from the Right's success in distorting U.S. history and the mainstream news media's failure to counter those false narratives. That has left the nation adrift in a faux reality, a crisis described by Robert Parry's new book and analyzed by Jim DiEugenio.
The Tragic Saga of Gary Webb
Starring Jeremy Renner as the late Gary Webb, the movie of Webb's investigation of the CIA's Contra-cocaine scandal – and of Webb's destruction by mainstream news outlets – is set to begin filming this summer. If Hollywood gets the story right, it will be a dark and enlightening tale, says H. "Corky" Johnson.
Throwing the First Cyber-Stone
Director of National Intelligence James Clapper calls cyber-attacks a top national security concern, but these U.S. alarms sound hypocritical after the joint U.S.-Israeli cyber-sabotage of Iran's nuclear industry, as Dutch computer expert Arjen Kamphuis explains.
Why WPost's Hiatt Should Be Fired
Exclusive: Toting up the Iraq War's cost is staggering, including nearly 4,500 U.S. soldiers and hundreds of thousands of Iraqis dead. But a decade later, few of its architects in government or apologists in the press have faced accountability. Washington Post editorial-page editor Fred Hiatt for one, notes Robert Parry.
A Last-Second Appeal for Sanity
Ten years ago, the U.S. invasion of Iraq was only hours away, but the case for this unprovoked war was already falling apart with exposure of hyperbole, half-truths and even a forgery. On March 18, 2003, a group of U.S. intelligence veterans pleaded with President George W. Bush to postpone the attack.

One of my friend's, Kiri, asked me if I could do some baking for a hen do she was organising last weekend. I don't like to declining baking opportunities so I said yes. However, given all the running around I've been doing recently I didn't have much time. So what was going to be biscuits and girly cupcakes ended up being these. Keep reading…

Every year the company I work for takes part in the Enduro Challenge. This is an endurance relay event where a team of 6 athletes race from Tower to Tower – The Tower of London to The Eiffel Tower. Teams run from London to Dover, swim across the English Channel (in only a swimming costume!) and then cycle from Calais to Paris. Yes, this is an extreme triathlon! I've taken part a couple of times and have helped support the race the last few years too. It's an enormous amount of fun and incredibly hard work and the athletes that take part are thoroughly deserving of plenty of homemade cakes! So it has become a tradition that I supply some home baked goodies, preferably themed for the event. So this year I have been busy baking some sea creature cupcakes.

Kids birthday cakes are one of my favourite cakes to make, especially when I get to come up with the design myself. As much as I love making pretty wedding cakes or cupcakes, there is something so fun about making bright, bold decorations for kids/novelty cakes – they are simple to make but always look so effective. So I was really pleased when Nadeem asked if I was able to make a transport themed birthday cake for his son Zahi's second birthday. Want to find out where the train is heading?

The advantage of doing a blog with somebody else is that you can remind/encourage each other to keep it up. Over the last 6 months my blogging has been very irregular (and infrequent at times) but Becky and I have said that we're going to remind each other to write a post each week. So here's my post for the week – look out for Becky's later this week.

Before I started Gloverly Cupcakes, Becky and I discussed starting a blog with "Sugarplum" in the name. Why? Because it was my nickname when I was younger and it fitted in with the baking theme. I didn't want to steal the name for a blog on my own, so I came up with Gloverly Cupcakes. Now Becky has joined me we want to keep the Gloverly Cupcakes name, but we also want to have a link to sugarplums. The first step was creating a new logo. The next step was to create a signature bake -

Before I set up this blog, my sister Becky and I had talked about setting up a blog together. However, due to the fact that we were both too busy and didn't see each other that often, nothing happened. So just under 2 years ago I decided to go it alone.
A few months ago she said she wanted to join in the blogging fun, and thought it would be a good idea to join mine. Technically she's no longer a Glover, but she'll always be my sister and she makes "loverly" cakes too so I've agreed to let her join my blogging journey.

Sharks Can Detect Magnetic Fields and Other Stories
December 17, 2004 12:00 AM - Kathleen M. Wong, California Academy of Sciences
Sharks on migration swim arrow-straight lines across featureless ocean basins. How they navigate over such great distances has been a mystery. Now experiments by scientists at the University of Hawaii demonstrate that sharks are able to detect magnetic field changes, supporting theories that the predators can map their location by deciphering differences in Earth's magnetic field lines.

FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) - A Fort Worth man has been convicted of aggravated sexual assault for an attack that took place 10 years ago.
A check of DNA in a database two years ago led to the arrest of 56-year-old Charles Anthony Green for the February 2004 abduction and assault of a 19-year-old woman.
The Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports (http://bit.ly/1eg7SHL ) a Tarrant County jury took 30 minutes Thursday to convict him. The victim testified she decided not to fight him after he confronted her with a gun because she thought she was dead.
Green now could face up to life in prison. He's decided to let the judge in his case determine punishment but no sentencing date has been set. He's already had convictions for assault, theft and drug possession.

Source: Sporturf Dalton, Ga. (May 21, 2013) - Sporturf, an international manufacturer and builder of synthetic turf fields, has significantly expanded its presence in the Midwest with the opening of the company's third regional field office in Kansas City, Missouri. Sporturf Midwest is under the leadership of President Craig Shonk, and will focus on Iowa, Nebraska, Missouri and Kansas. "This strategic move opens up a market that Sporturf has not really been in before," noted Shonk. "Bringing an ISO manufacturer and a Midwest-based ASBA certified field builder together gives clients the best of both worlds." Sporturf Midwest recently completed their first, full-size turf install in Nebraska with the practice field at Millard North High School in Omaha, the largest high school in the state. Millard North benefitted in many ways from the new field, including having access to the most current fiber technology. Their team, the Mustangs, will play soccer and football games on Powerhouse 3C featuring a custom blend of monofilament and tape fibers that are the wave of the future. Peru State's historic Oak Bowl is the next project to take advantage of Sporturf's local "grassroots" plan of allowing direct access with their synthetic turf manufacturer. "Building long lasting relationships gives everyone involved unprecedented peace of mind," added Darby McCamy, Sporturf Fields Vice President. "We have bridged the gap between owner and manufacturer with our local team of certified field builders, who focus on the design-build process more than the next sale." The Sporturf main office and mill is located in Dalton, Georgia, and San Diego-based Sporturf International started in 2003. In addition, Sporturf International serves some of the most prominent sports facilities in South America and the Caribbean, such as the Haiti FIFA National Stadium and Eddy Coello Stadium in Ecuador. About SporturfHeadquartered in Dalton, Georgia, Sporturf supplies large and small customers alike with the widest variety of turf in the world. The company is a division of Controlled Products, one of the leading manufacturers of synthetic turf worldwide. Sporturf has engineered synthetic turf fields for baseball, soccer, football, lacrosse and hockey programs in 30 states and the D.C. area. Notable installs have included Clemson University, Samford University, The Citadel, Detroit Silverdome and hundreds of high schools ranging from Beckman Catholic High School in Dyersville, Iowa to Grace Academy in Knoxville, Tennessee.

text: Record Retention The VSCPA intends the following schedule to be used only as a guide. Retention periods are conservatively long, and are suggested with federal requirements in mind. Be sure to check with local and state authorities for specific record retention requirements. Record retention is a must, whether for personal, business, or tax reasons. However, record retention is necessary only to the extent it serves a useful purpose or satisfies legal requirements. For example, generally the IRS must assess additional tax within three years after the later of filing of a return its due date. The period is six years if the taxpayer omits items of gross income that in total exceed 25 percent of gross income reported on the return. If a fraudulent return is filed or if no return is filed there is no limit to the period the tax can be assessed. In practice, however, most individuals and businesses retain records based on available space. Many accounting firms maintain permanent files for their clients. In a permanent file, such legal documents as wills, leases, employment agreements, and debt instruments are kept. In addition, other pertinent tax documents such as Subchapter S election approval or Keogh plans may be kept in this file. Non-tax records that establish the due profession care with which an accountant has performed an account or auditing on should be retained as long as an injured party could file a legal action. This time period varies from state to state and according to whether the action alleges contract or tort damages. Seven years, in most states, would be a satisfactory period for retention. Permanent files are not unique to accounting firms alone. Other businesses can also benefit from the establishment of permanent files to retain the documents listed on the following chart. Advanced technology has somewhat eliminated the inconvenience of retaining records-the use of microfilm can condense reams of paper to the size of a single sheet. Microfilm is not without disadvantages: It is relatively expensive, non-billable to clients, and once the system is adopted generally becomes permanent. Individuals, businesses, and accounting firms facing record retention must answer two questions: • What must I keep? • How long do I have to keep it? Following are charts devised for individuals, businesses, and accounting firms. These charts may be used as a guideline for most record; however, always be sure to check local and state record retention requirements. Detail on many on many aspects of record retention, including tax records, can found in Guide to Record Retention Requirements in the Code of Federal Regulations, a publication available from the Superintendent of Documents or from Commerce Clearing House.

Josh Scobee has agreed to a four-year deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to Tania Ganguli of the Florida Times-Union. Scobee has spent his entire nine-year career with the Jags. He was drafted by the team in the fifth round of the 2004 NFL Draft.
The #Jaguars have reached a multi-year deal with kicker @JoshScobee10 according to a source familiar with the negotiations.— Tania Ganguli (@taniaganguli) July 16, 2012
Scobee is career 78.8 percent field goal kicker. He had arguably the best season his career in 2011, going 23-for-25 on his field goal attempts while playing a full 16-game slate. He made a career high six field goals of 50 yards or longer.
If the Jaguars had been unable to sign Scobee to a long-term deal by 4 p.m. ET, the veteran kicker would have had to play under the franchise tag next season for $2.88 million. The financial terms of his new contract have not yet been disclosed.

Pacquiao vs Marquez 4 (Boxing fans)
Arum has promised us a KO, winner Pac, but I think he's full of #@!*$&%
Marquez rocked Pacquiao in fight 3 , there's no way it ends in anything other than a split decision favoring Marquez(Non corrupt judges this time)
Your thoughts?
Pacman #1.
By default I cheer for Pac because my S.O. would likely chop my balls off if I didn't (he's like the only famous Filipino athlete ever).
I hope pac wins but what I really wanna see is
Cotto vs canelo.
Did I ever tell this story?
Kendra and I were out for a walk in the old neighborhood and we walked by this house that had a big bay window on the front of the house. We could see right into the living room. There was this 100 year old frail looking grandma sitting in her rocking chair...
pumping her fist to UFC.
Why aren't adult-sized boxers more popular?
Boxing is fixed. Just as I don't watch WWF for the same reason, I don't watch boxing.
I'm sure that my friend who places the majority of my bets will wager on the "fight" as he always does. I'll check the next day to see if I won like every other boxing match.
I couldn't imagine actually watching two pussies barely hit eachother with giant gloves until it's time for one to take a fall.

Before I Self Destruct - 50 Cent
- Summary: The fourth album for the rapper is finally released and features appearances by Eminem, Ne Yo, Lloyd Banks, and R. Kelly.
- Record Label: Aftermath
- Genre(s): Rap
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 6 out of 15
Mixed: 9 out of 15
Negative: 0 out of 15
On the lyrical side of things, 50 seems to have his edge back. Whether he's orchestrating a robbery or bucking (pun intended) shots at his foes, it seems apparent that the criticisms got to him. For the hard core fans, the softer songs are skippable, but I can't hold that against him too much.
Before I Self Destruct is still a fantastic juggernaut of a 50 album if you exit early, and a very good one even if you don't.
Call it voyeur. Call it artificial. Call it exploitative. Just don't call it boring. It's the first 50 Cent album in some time that can boast that.
He clearly yearns to evoke the mixture of fun and grit that made "Get Rich or Die Tryin'" such a remarkable effort, but he's misguided in his approach.
On Fiddy's fourth album, the muscle-bound-warrior routine is the only one he trusts, so he keeps milking it.
Before I Self Destruct plays as a prudent step back. It's not that 50 has suddenly become terrifying, but the album possesses a sense of latent menace that's been left unexplored since his early mixtapes.
Before I Self Destruct needs as many bells and whistles as it can muster, because the music isn't going to cut it on its own.
Score distribution:
Positive: 6 out of 9
Mixed: 1 out of 9
Negative: 2 out of 9
Jan 27, 2011The record is superbly produced and the sound of each track is better than any I have heard for a while. There is a good sense of direction on the whole but the record is typically let down by 50's light-weight technical abilities. He is obviously trying his best but I can't help but feel indifferent about him. The way he can switch from sexually provocative "Baby By Me" to homicidal on "The Invasion" is quite unnerving and indicative of his lack of musicality. Considering the beats are so inspiring his verses are still basic which signifies to me that he should hang up his mic. 5/10 54/100… Expand

Under the Skin RiffArt, Film, Movies, Reviews
1. I hadn't read a review of Under the Skin until after I watched it, but I had gleaned an idea of it based on taglines and posters—something like "Scarlett Johansson as a sexy alien seducing men in Scotland."
2. That is not what the film is.
3. Under the Skin is an aesthetic experience. Now, this phrase, aesthetic experience, this phrase is extremely pretentious, and the way I've used it here also strikes me as pretentious, and even worse, not particularly clear. Any film could be described as an aesthetic experience. Films are, after all, simply light and sound.
4. Under the Skin is best experienced as light and sound—as aesthetic.
5. I've neglected to mention the film's director, Jonathan Glazer, who directed another film I love, Sexy Beast.
6. For Under the Skin, Glazer adapted Michel Faber's novel of the same name. I haven't read the book, but a cursory cruise over its Wikipedia page suggests that Glazer dissolved most of the plot, keeping just the frame, or the idea of a frame for his film.
7. What I liked most about Under the Skin: The film is not really about anything. The film just happens.
8. Point 7 is a terrible description! Of course the film is about something—but its themes and motifs are overdetermined and underexplained—or not explained at all.
9. There is very little dialogue in the film—no exposition or explanation for what's happening, let alone a conversation that might guide the audience to how to think or feel about what's happening.
10. (Okay: This is not entirely true, but it is mostly true. There is a key conversation, if it can be called that, between Johansson's unnamed character and a man with a deformed face).
11. The bits of dialogue that do evince often seem unscripted and random. The men Johansson's character picks up speak in thick Scottish accents, their voices often obscured behind a din of traffic, buzz of music, or the thick glass windows of the van she drives around in.
12. (A favorite moment of auditory distortion in Under the Skin: In a domestic scene, in a kitchen, cleaning up, a man turns on his radio and just-barely tunes in a station. Deacon Blue's "Real Gone Kid" plays through a hazy crackle. Lovely).
13. The sound mixing in the film is beautiful—waves crashing, the clip-clop of horse hooves on a high road, the wind blowing heavy through tall evergreens—these auditory cues mix in with Mica Levi's creepy, lush score, which channels Krzysztof Komeda's work and Bernard Herrmann's Psycho score through Portishead and Loveless
14. Sound and light—those shots: Cinematographer Daniel Landin is the secret star of the film. Every shot is gorgeous, painterly, and if Glazer often allows a scene to linger just past an acceptable threshold, it's because he's in love with the film's dark beauty.
15. (And/or: Glazer lets his shots linger so long to provoke the viewer into a kind of hypnotic discomfort).
16. The film's early visual references to Kubrick's 2001 are a bit on-the-nose—too on-the-nose, too expected. As the film progresses, the shots take their cues not from Kubrick's sci-fi classic, but his most painterly film, Barry Lyndon.
17. (Under the Skin also reminded me of Upstream Color, Moon, The Man Who Fell to Earth, Tree of Life, and Morvern Callar).
18. The film is best enjoyed, as I've said, as an aesthetic experience, art, if that's the word you like. I think that viewers who attempt to impose their own narrative logic on the film will attune their energy to the wrong frequency. Let the aesthetic happen.
19. (The beach sequence in this film is one of the best scenes I've watched in a long, long time).
20. I have completely and purposefully neglected to mention anything about the plot, because I do not think the plot, in the sense of plot-as-arrangement-of-action matters to the film. The film's aesthetic is the plot.
21. And Under the Skin's aesthetic is the film's theme. This film is about seeing, hearing. Touch, taste, smell.
You can boil that down to whichever theory floats your boat—the male gaze, alienation, othering, sexual subversion, radical feminism, etc.—but I think that imposing any schema, any deep reading here, may be a way of anesthetizing the film's aesthetic.
22. Highly recommended.

Snowpiercer RiffFilm, Movies, Reviews
1. Snowpiercer, 2013, directed by Bong Joon Ho and produced by Park Chan Wook, is a sci-fi dystopian set on a mega-train, where the vestiges of humanity survive, protected from the new ice age outside. The plot involves the third-class passengers' revolt against the elites who enjoy a privileged life at the head of the train. Etc.
2. You've seen this movie before, read this book before. You've played this video game.
3. Metropolis, Soylent Green, 12 Monkeys, Half-Life 2, The Time Machine, the MaddAddam trilogy, Children of Men, BioShock, Zardoz, Logan's Run, Brave New World, Brazil, The City of Lost Children, Bad Dudes, Die Hard, The Polar Express, etc.
4. Points 2 and 3 are lazy writing, and Snowpiercer deserves better. Although the film is not especially original, it does have a clear point of view, its own aesthetics, and an engaging, energetic rhythm, powered by strong (if purposefully cartoonish) performances from its cast.
5. Snowpiercer is essentially structured like a video game. The heroes, a rebel alliance led by Chris Evans (Captain America, looking like The Edge from U2 for half the film), clear each train car—each game board—before moving on to the next challenge. An early standout scene involves a fight with a band of ninjas who for some reason ritually slaughter a fish before battle (the scene echoes the famous hammer hallway fight in Old Boy, a film directed by Snowpiercer producer Chan Wook Park).
6. The simple narrative structure of Snowpiercer allows the filmmakers to highlight the plot's allegorical dimension. Highlight is the wrong verb: What I mean to say is hammer. Snowpiercer is not especially subtle in its critique of capitalism, with the engine that powers the train as a metaphor for capitalism itself—the engine determines the form of the train which in turn shapes the form of the society that must live in the train.
7. At Jacobin, Peter Frase offers a strong argument that the film challenges the entire system of capitalism and ultimately advocates transcendence of the system—not internal revolution.
8. While I think Frase's essay offers a compelling analysis, I think that he simply wants the film to be better than it is. Snowpiercer, despite an apparent subversive streak, is still a Hollywoodish spectacle of violence and noise. It cannot transcend its own tropes (it can't even revolutionize them). The vision of transcendence it offers is a rhetorical trick; not only that, it's a stale trick, one that we can find at the end of any number of dystopian fictions: The exit door, the escape hatch, the way out.
9. I want to talk about that exit door—the end of the film: so major spoilers ahead.

Cyprian (Latin: Thascius Caecilius Cyprianus) (died September 14, 258) was bishop of Carthage and an important Early Christian writer, many of whose Latin works are extant. He was born around the beginning of the 3rd century in North Africa, perhaps at Carthage, where he received a classical education. After converting to Christianity, he became a bishop in 249 and eventually died a martyr at Carthage.
Cyprian was born sometime in the early third century. He was a leading member of legal fraternity in Carthage, He was well into middle age when he was converted to Christianity and baptised.[1] The site of his eventual martyrdom was his own villa. Before becoming a Christian, he was an orator, "pleader in the courts", and a teacher of rhetoric.[2] The date of his conversion is unknown, but after his baptism about 245–248 he gave away a portion of his wealth to the poor of Carthage, as befitted a man of his status.
His original name was Thascius; he took the additional name Caecilius in memory of the presbyter to whom he owed his conversion. In the early days of his conversion he wrote an Epistola ad Donatum de gratia Dei and the Testimoniorum Libri III that adhere closely to the models of Tertullian, who influenced his style and thinking.
Not long after his baptism he was ordained deacon, and soon afterward presbyter; and some time between July 248 and April 249 he was chosen bishop of Carthage, a popular choice among the poor who remembered his patronage as demonstrating good equestrian style, while a portion of the presbytery opposed it, for all Cyprian's wealth and learning and diplomacy and literary talents. Moreover, the opposition within the church community at Carthage did not dissolve during his episcopacy.
Soon, however, the entire community was put to an unwanted test. Christians in North Africa had not suffered persecution for many years; the church was assured and lax. Early in 250 the "Decian persecution" began. Measures were first taken demanding that the bishops and officers of the church sacrifice to the emperor. The proconsul on circuit, and five commissioners for each town, administered the edict; but, when the proconsul reached Carthage, Cyprian had fled.
It is quite evident in the writings of the church fathers from various dioceses that the Christian community was divided on this occasion, among those who stood firm in civil disobedience, and those who buckled, submitting in word or in deed to the order of sacrifice and receiving a ticket or receipt called a "libellus." Cyprian's secret departure from Carthage was interpreted by his enemies as cowardice and infidelity, and they hastened to accuse him at Rome. The Roman clergy wrote to Cyprian in terms of disapproval. Cyprian rejoined that he fled in accordance with visions and the divine command. From his place of refuge he ruled his flock with earnestness and zeal, using a faithful deacon as his intermediary.
The persecution was especially severe at Carthage, according to Church sources. Many Christians fell away, and were thereafter referred to as "lapsi", but afterwards asked to be received again into the Church. Their requests were granted early, with no regard being paid to the demand of Cyprian and his faithful among the Carthaginian clergy, who insisted upon earnest repentance. The confessors among the more liberal group intervened to allow hundreds of the lapsed to return to the Church.
Though he had remained in seclusion himself, Cyprian now censured all laxity toward the lapsed, refused absolution to them except in case of mortal sickness, and desired to postpone the question of their re-admission to the Church to quieter times. A schism broke out in Carthage. Felicissimus, who had been ordained deacon by the presbyter Novatus during the absence of Cyprian, opposed all steps taken by Cyprian's representatives. Cyprian deposed and excommunicated him and his supporter Augendius. Felicissimus was upheld by Novatus and four other presbyters, and a determined opposition was thus organized.
When, after an absence of fourteen months, Cyprian returned to his diocese, he defended leaving his post in letters to the other North African bishops and a tract "De lapsis," and called a council of North African bishops at Carthage to consider the treatment of the lapsed and the apparent schism of Felicissimus (251). The council in the main sided with Cyprian and condemned Felicissimus, though no acts of this council survive. The "libellatici" were to be restored at once upon sincere repentance; but such as had taken part in heathen sacrifices could be received back into the Church only when on the point of death. Afterward this regulation was essentially mitigated, and even these were restored if they repented immediately after a sudden fall and eagerly sought absolution; though clerics who had fallen were to be deposed and could not be restored to their functions.
In Carthage the followers of Felicissimus elected Fortunatus as bishop in opposition to Cyprian, while in Rome the followers of the Roman presbyter Novatian, who also refused absolution to all the lapsed, elected their man as bishop of Rome, in opposition to Cornelius. The Novatianists secured the election of a rival bishop of their own at Carthage, Maximus by name. Novatus now left Felicissimus and followed the Novatian party.
But these extremes strengthened the firm but moderating influence exhibited in Cyprian's writings, and the following of his opponents grew less and less. He rose still higher in the favor of the people when they witnessed his self-denying devotion during the time of a great plague and famine.
He comforted his brethren by writing his "De mortalitate," and in his "De eleemosynis" exhorted them to active charity towards the poor, while he set the best pattern by his own life. He defended Christianity and the Christians in the apologia "Ad Demetrianum," directed against a certain Demetrius and the reproach of the heathens that Christians were the cause of the public calamities.
At the end of 256 a new persecution of the Christians under Emperor Valerian I broke out, and both Pope Stephen I and his successor, Pope Sixtus II, suffered martyrdom at Rome.
In Africa Cyprian courageously prepared his people for the expected edict of persecution by his "De exhortatione martyrii," and himself set an example when he was brought before the Roman proconsul Aspasius Paternus (August 30, 257). He refused to sacrifice to the pagan deities and firmly professed Christ.
The consul banished him to Curubis, modern Korba, whence he comforted to the best of his ability his flock and his banished clergy. In a vision he saw his approaching fate. When a year had passed he was recalled and kept practically a prisoner in his own villa, in expectation of severer measures after a new and more stringent imperial edict arrived, demanding the execution of all Christian clerics, according to reports of it by Christian writers.
On September 13, 258, he was imprisoned at the behest of the new proconsul, Galerius Maximus. The day following he was examined for the last time and sentenced to die by the sword. His only answer was "Thanks be to God!" The execution was carried out at once in an open place near the city. A vast multitude followed Cyprian on his last journey. He removed his garments without assistance, knelt down, and prayed. After he blindfolded himself, he was beheaded by the sword.
The body was interred by Christian hands near the place of execution, and over it, as well as on the actual scene of his death, churches were afterward erected, which, however, were destroyed by the Vandals. Charlemagne is said to have had the bones transferred to France, and Lyons, Arles, Venice, Compiegne, and Roenay in Flanders claim the possession of the martyr's relics.
|Wikisource has original works written by or about:
Cyprian's works were edited in volumes 3 and 4 of the Patrologia Latina. Besides a number of epistles, which are partly collected with the answers of those to whom they were written, Cyprian wrote a number of treatises, some of which have also the character of pastoral letters.
His most important work is his "De unitate ecclesiae." In it, he states: "He can no longer have God for his Father who has not the Church for his mother; . . . he who gathereth elsewhere than in the Church scatters the Church of Christ" (vi.); "nor is there any other home to believers but the one Church" (ix.).
The following works are of doubtful authenticity: De spectaculis ("On Public Games"); De bono pudicitiae ("The Virtue of Modesty"); De idolorum vanitate ("On the Vanity of Images," written by Novatian); De laude martyrii ("In Praise of Martyrs"); Adversus aleatores; De duobus montibus Sina et Sion (On the Two Mountains Sinai and Zion); Adversus Judaeos; and the Cena Cypriani ("Cyprian's Banquet", which enjoyed wide circulation in the Middle Ages). The treatise entitled De duplici martyrio ad Fortunatum and attributed to Cyprian was not only published by Erasmus, but probably also composed by him.
The Plague of Cyprian is named after him due to his description of it.
St Cyprian's first writing starts out as a speech he made to his friends. It is called, Ad Donatum. It speaks out against the Roman Government and gladiator shows. He says that the only refuge from these evils is the prayerful life of a Christian. His style of writing is said to be unequaled among the Fathers of the Church.[citation needed]
Feast Day in the Anglican/Episcopal Church is September 13.[citation needed]

3.31/5 rDev +3.1%
500 mL bottle from the LCBO; best before Sept. 2013. Hard to believe I've made it to nearly 450 reviews without once trying a rye beer - but I guess it's time to pop that cherry. This is the third entry in this brewery's 'Historic Beers of Canada' series, a line of one-offs that I have so far been pretty satisfied with.
This brew is clear amber-orange in colour, and relatively deep in hue, with an aggressive pour generating slightly less than two fingers of dense, creamy, off-white head. Retention is respectable - it takes more than a few minutes to wilt down into a foamy, uneven cap, complete with sparkling bubbles and a solid swath of lacing left clinging to the edge of the glass. Looks pretty good. The aroma is surprisingly powerful, with a range of highlights that includes caramel, molasses and butterscotch sweetness, as well as sourdough and some light grassiness. I could swear I'm picking up some coffee too, but I think it's either a product of my wild imagination or a random convergence of the other individual aromas.
Lots of stuff going on in the flavour profile - a lot of which clashes, leaving the overall taste feeling a little muddled. Initially I can pick out some caramel maltiness, roasted nuts and treacle, as well as a lot of butterscotch/diacetyl - a flavour that generally doesn't bother me but it really sticks out like a sore thumb here. There is an underlying nuance of rye bread crusts, but it is quickly lost amongst the leafy, slightly citrusy hop bitterness that follows. Hop bitterness remains prominent into the finish, lingering into the aftertaste alongside a light spiciness. On the light side of medium-bodied, with mild carbonation that gives this beer a flat, neutral, somewhat slick mouthfeel - an intentional feature according to the label, but it doesn't really work that well here. Fairly drinkable, but not something I'd want to session.
This beer doesn't taste bad or anything, but there is definitely room for improvement. For one thing, the rye, which is presumably supposed to be the focus of this beer, is not a very prominent player in the flavour profile. The diacetyl does not help matters much - and combined with the limp, unreactive mouthfeel and somewhat overbearing bitterness, we wind up with a product that, while it is still serviceable, mostly just comes across as feeling a little haphazardly put-together.
Final Grade: 3.31, just barely eking out a B-. Montgomery's Courage, despite it's flaws, is at the very least an aptly named beer. The rebellion that this brew was made to commemorate was neither well-organized nor successful - making this beer a somewhat fitting tribute. A messy offering that doesn't get everything right, but remains tasty and inoffensive. Something tells me this stuff isn't going to get any better as it sits on the shelves for the next few months, so if you're interested in trying it, I'd do it as soon as possible.

A: Dark brown with an amber tinge, almost semi opaque but looks filtered with no carbonation, 2 fingers of beige head.
S: Malt, dark toasted malts, molasses, toffee, caramel, clean and much like a filtered American Amber in quality.
T: Dark toasted malts, very clean and linen like, again like a filtered less hopped American Amber in quality. Some toasted malt qualities, light burnt bitterness near the end like an English Porter. Light toffee essence but I'm not getting any sweetness.
M: Medium body, medium low, low carbonation, dry American Porter like finnish.
O: Not getting the rye on this, and I am a fan of rye beers. Its really like an okay porter. Very smooth. Love the history in it, and glad to have found this one out of season at the end of May as I wouldn't have found it otherwise.

500ml Bottle from the Ottawa LCBO for $4.75
Appearance - Copper colour with an average size off-white coloured head. There is an average amount of carbonation showing and there is some faint lacing. The head lasted for around 3-4 minutes before it was gone.
Smell - Malts, hops, caramel/toffee
Taste & Mouth - There is an above average amount of carbonation and I can taste malts, caramel/toffee, and hops. There is also a chocolate sweetness.
Overall - A little astringent on the hop side of things, but a decent ESB tasting beer - not as much rye as I expected. Boring though and very overpriced for what it is.

Poured from a bottle into a shaker pint, the beer is a crystal clear, copper coloring with only the slightest filmy white surface coating. Nose is supersweet, with toffee and caramel notes abundant with every sniff. Roasty and earthy notes, too. Very rich nose. Flavors are a little more balanced, but not by much. Roasted grains in the backbone, but they are quickly overwhelmed by caramel, toffee, and even some chocolate notes. Slight bitterness at the tail end of the palate, as well as hints of pepper spice, but the robust, rich sweetness carries on through. This is a definite malt-bomb. Smooth, mid-bodied with a slightly dry, slightly cloying finish. The beer is definitely malt heavy, but you can absolutely see the traces of hops and grain throughout.

500 ml bottle from LCBO poured into a pint glass. $3.95 CDN if I recall correctly.
Appearance - Hazy, copper, amber beer. Even with a decent pour there was less than a half finger of head, which stays for a very short period. Some bubbles are present as well.
Smell - Sweet toffee, caramel vanilla and floral aspects maybe violets picked up in the nose. These all tack a backseat to the large rye presence however.
Taste - Big malty flavors, again the rye is particularly noticeable. Quick transitions to a very bitter taste, subsiding to a significantly less potent bitterness. Hop tastes come through a bit more as the beer warms a bit and once your tongue has been thoroughly coated, meaning I didn't notice them until halfway through the beer. Not being a big fan of huge malt trips, this was a bit of overkill. Diacetyl also really sticks out here. I just think a touch more sweetness may have made this more palatable.
Mouthfeel - Low carbonation, smooth mouthfeel, but actually a touch thin even with the bold flavors. At the same time the beer has heavy aspects that are "heavy" for the sake of being heavy. Somewhat dry finish.
Overall - Worth a try if you're interested in rye based beers. Looked interesting to me so I'm glad I tried it, but won't be repeating the purchase especially not at the price cost.

The 3rd ale in their historical brew series...
A - Pours a clear amber colour, finger of head with little retention and some nice sheeting lacing.
S - Sourdough bread, milk caramel, butter toffee and grainy hop notes on the finish.
T - Bready malts come through off the top, butter toffee and sourdough come through with sour citrus rind lingering with a strong bitterness, which although fitting of the style is a bit overwhelming and is a tad offsetting.
M - A tad thin and watery, finishes with a touch of dryness.
O - Decent, but nothing special to brag about. The bitterness was a bit of a turnoff and the mouthfeel was just lacking. Worth a try, but not a repeat purchase.

Montgomery's Courage is an orange-amber colour, perfectly clear (forgiving some chill haze and condensation on the glass), and also, as expected, completely flat. The lack of foam, however, has not prevented it from plastering the glass in strips of sticky suds. All in all, it's the most "modern" (read: filtered) looking of the "Historic Beers of Canada" series thus far.
The aroma won't be entirely unfamiliar to whiskey drinkers; rye is a strong grain and it has a distinctive spice, something like a very subtle clove or cracked black pepper crossed with pumpernickel bread. This example also has subtle suggestions of orange wedge, dried fruits and toasted nuts. It is definitively malty and rather pleasant, albeit a bit plain.
Montgomery's Courage is brewed in part with rye malt and it shows (err, rather tastes). If you've ever tried to imagine what Canadian rye whiskey tastes like without the alcohol and wood, look no further; this is a dead-ringer for Crown Royal, albeit with more graininess and a lot less heat (though the rye imparts a little spicy warmth of its own).
Black Creek really commits to the historic reenactment angle; I've yet to have a beer of theirs that's carbonated. No matter, what they lack in bubbles they typically make up for in malt (though this is expectedly a little thinner than the Porter, Stout, Rifleman's or Dray Horse - all dark beers). I want to claim a little pumpkin spices, though it's probably reaching a bit much.
Montgomery's Courage may be my least favourite so far, but I've enjoyed each and every one of Black Creek's Historic Beers of Canada and look forward to the decade comes next. It's doubtful anyone will find any of these beers very exciting, but they are well made (carbonation exempted) and considerably malty (read: flavoured). Worth picking up one bottle.

2.16/5 rDev -32.7%
Appearance: Next to no carbonation in the body, and only poured with a half finger of head. However the head did stick around and produced ample lacing. The body is a clear amber brown.
Smell: There is a dominant dry sour smell to it. Like Rye bread mixed with sour dough. Caramel malt can also be detected in the background. Warming helped in out quite a bit in this department.
Taste: Starts with sweet caramel malt with a hint of dryness that turns to a dry hit of out of place grapefruit and earthy hops that is just excessively bitter.
Mouthfeel: The carbonation helps out the entire beer, but the lingering dry note which must be the rye, and sandy tasting hops don't want to leave. The transitioning doesn't make it very smooth either.
Drinkability: Way too dry, on the heavier end of medium bodied which I don't think is appropriate, the aftertaste conspires against it.
Final Thoughts: Well, this is my first Rye beer, and I can't say I was a fan. It kinda makes me concerned about that bottle of Cameron's RPA I have in my fridge. Maybe another Rye beer will give me perspective, but this got the drain after two thirds.

This beer is all about the malts.
Pours dark copper with a short head that goes to a heavy film and leaves behind lots of spotty lace. Looks good enough.
Smell is straight up butterscotch from malt, sweet but not overpowering in any way. Merest whiff of hops. Slightly bitter from hops to drink, finishes with some sweet caramel before giving way to some lingering bitterness. Medium mouthfeel on the palate, just enough presence, not watery, not heavy.
Passably good, but sweet enough that you wouldn't drink a ton of these in a row. I like rye-based beers and this one has a little bit of what should be going on happening for it, but doesn't place enough emphasis on the rye. Still worth a try at least.

Jumping on the bandwagon
Its late, you know you should have left the party a bit earlier but you needed one last drink. You didnt drive because your friend's house isnt far too from your apartment and you came alone thus you leave alone. The party was a blast and had a big intoxicated smile on your face as you hugged everyone and exited to the street.
The street was unusually dark due to the street lamps being out and this area never had a high volume of traffic anyway, so its just you, alone.
You walk at an even pace, adjusting yourself to the brisk night air and hoping to not look to drunk to a roving police officer with a quota to meet. Your street is narrow with thick foliage and either side, its often referred to as horror highway on the account of it looking so stereotypically horror movie-Esq. The thought was unsettling at the moment so you pushed it out of your mind by the thinking of the cute person who you finally got the courage to approach to ask for their number.
You feel a slight chill but you have on your favorite sweater so you feel ok. The alcohol is warming your blood as well. Your beloved Ipod was lost last week so the night air and autumn leaves rustling are the sound track of your walk . Just as you being to sing your favorite song in your head you think you hear something...a slight pitter, like foot steps. Looking behind you, you see nothing but the blackness of the night and tree droppings. Turning around, you feel silly; you're drunk you say...but you hear it again. Pitter pat crunch, pitter pat crunch; foot steps in the leaves. You turn again, no one is there but you arent quite sure this time. Time to pick up the pace.
What could it be? Another party go-er? No, they would have called out to you. A deer? Possible, very possible. The more possibles right now the better to calm your nerves. It seems that this walk is strangely long, the street stretches far in front of you as your feet move in slow motion. Now you wish you drove tonight.
It only took a minute for the sound to come back again; pitter pat crunch, pitter pat crunch, it was closer than the previous two times. You stop this time and swing all the way around, the sounds stop but you see something, very vaguely in the darkness and almost invisible. A nondescript figure is behind you and for a quick second you wonder how long its been behind you and how you'd missed it before. It didnt move and neither could you for a second, but you quickly got your wits bout you, turned and began to jog; you have to make it home. The sounds began and your worst fear was realized...it was chasing you. Crunch! Crunch! Crunch! You found yourself unleashing speed and strength you hadnt called upon in years and ran for your life. Is it a robber or killer? No time to think, just run.
Finally, you make it to your door and you jump up the stairs to your apartment, tripping on the top one. Keys already in hand you hurriedly unlock your front door. The crunching had stopped but you didnt care as you slammed and relocked your door and collapsed on the couch. It probably was a neighborhood kid messing with you or a stray animal you surmised; adrenaline wearing down now. You sigh with relief and begin to check the rest of the rooms and windows in your apartment. Check. Check. Check. All clear. You're alone
Heading up to bed you ponder what had happened; were you drunk and imagining things? You plan to call your friends but its too late and you are too tired, it can wait. You slip off your clothes an get into bed with only a slight bit of fear left , snuggling deep into that comfy bed of yours, slowly being over taken by sleep...
Im so very glad that you didn't find me, you wouldn't understand...they never understand and it makes me....it makes me have to do something drastic. The deep morass of solitude is unforgiving and harsh to ones like me...the ones deemed 'mentally unfit'. They don't understand my needs, they don't understand...they don't, they don't, they don't! But you do...Even if you dont know you do. I love watching you sleep, I love you...you are mine.
Rest easy, you are alone...with me.

Intel, Obeservations and Whispers from The NFP Insider Network National Football Post
*Some people around the league think the worse Cam Newton plays, the hotter Marty Hurney's seat becomes. Hurney has hardly anything to do with Newton's sophomore slump, but the feeling is someone might have to take the fall for it. Hurney, who doesn't have a contract for 2013 that would make Panthers owner Jerry Richardson hesitant about firing him, could be the fall guy.
*The Jaguars worked to revamp their wide receiver corps by signing Laurent Robinson in free agency and drafting Justin Blackmon. The Robinson addition was curious because first-year coach Mike Mularkey was in Atlanta when the Falcons cut the veteran. Robinson has been sidelined with a concussion but is probably better suited as a No. 3. The bigger problem, though, might be Blackmon, who hasn't made an impact as the fifth overall pick. He's listed at 6-1, 210 pounds, but doesn't weigh that much and he lacks speed. Blackmon isn't physical enough to make up for his speed and he hasn't been a sharp route runner.
*Some NFL front office men are not surprised to see Browns receiver Greg Little struggle with drops. And it isn't as simple as evaluating his hands. One said Little has a history of having focus and consistency issues, both on and off the field. That might mean his problem is a lot more difficult to correct.
*As the college scouting season goes on, it is becoming evident not everyone is enamored with Southern Cal quarterback Matt Barkley. This is what one national scout said about him: "I'll tell you, Matt Barkley, I am not a fan at all. Really. When you see him in person you're going to see. He doesn't have any velocity on the ball. Those wide receivers make everything happen for him. Those two are the real deal. He is surrounded by a lot of talent. When you are surrounded by people like that, you make good decisions and you are a smart quarterback … Barkley is going to be a good starting quarterback in the NFL. But will he ever be great? No."
*Letroy Guion has a different role from Kevin Williams, but some front office men believe Guion has been better than Williams in his role for the Vikings. Guion, the nose tackle, is more of a run stuffer. Williams, the under tackle, is more of a pass rusher. Both have been effective, but Guion has been outstanding. Guion lost some weight in the offseason and re-committed himself to play more consistently. He subsequently has done more than just make flash plays this year.
